Today is a day about love and this gorgeous guest blog expresses such purity and beauty that it makes the perfect start to the day. It is a piece about veil dancing but more over it expresses a love of life, a love of silk and a love of dance. It is a deeply personal and unhurried piece that I hope will bring as much joy and piece to you on reading it as it did to me. – Jade
The veil is like love.
It has as many meanings as there are people to experience it. It is a shimmering silk imbued with very deep, very intense meanings and feelings. It has found its place in the most provocative areas of our psyche, our spirit, our sexuality and our cultures. We see it on women’s faces, wrapped around women’s bodies, portrayed as the symbol of what lies between ourselves and the reality of existence and God. It shields the provocative symbiosis of spiritual ecstasy and sensuality feared and yearned for. It is the thin sheath that we cannot see through unless we relinquish judgement and control. As the protection of saints, the plaything of seductresses it has been given the role of agitating the boundaries of our familiar realities with the suggestion that there is more to life than what we see and reason. What leads us to relinquish control, to set foot off the familiar paths is a force inside everyone. To dance with the veil liberates this force playfully and gives to us a companion and what is unknown becomes known. It is a kind of untouched mine of precious experience.
There is a story of Moses having to cover his face with a veil after he had talked with God since his face was so illumined that he feared it would scare his people. There are the myths of Innana and Ishtar, of Babylon and Sumeria, whose descent into the underworld, after their lover, requires them vanquish a layer of cloth at each one of the seven gates. Oscar Wilde made famous Salome whose dance of the seven veils brought her the head of John the Baptist. This crossing into different worlds, ecstacy and the sacrifice of reason has made the veil a beautiful evocation of our inherent need for experience and connection beyond the ordinary.
Not long ago the veil was seen as a mere embellishment to the performance and dancers would usually twirl a few times with the veil then discard it but more and more dancers are discovering the veil to be an instrument in itself capable of an infinite number of subtle and sophisticated motions, that create a magical illusion of worlds opening into worlds. This transformation of the perception of the veil is gradually pushing out the limitations set upon dance by choreography and alongside of Middle Eastern dance opening the art to movement that interprets the moment.
“When I bically our culture has forbidden such freedom of motion in its pursuit to mould the art into a ruthless process of selection and form so that it could fashion values and distinguish itself from the dance forms enjoyed by the lower classes and countries seen as backward and savage. In the early 1900s, with the appearance of dancers like Isadore Duncan and the exotic dancers of the Middle East in France, glimpses of a freedom of expression lured and ignited the hearts of many and opened the way for much more interpretive forms of dance that now continue to blossom into a cornucopia of fusions. The Middle East is showing us a form of dance free of the choreographer’s control, a dance more grounded in the strength and spirit of creative passion that derives its form from the natural communication between music, the soul and the body. When I have watched choreography I am often bewitched by its prettiness, in awe that they can memorize the steps but it often does not go beyond novelty unless there is a rich deep soul igniting the movement with the force of presence and personality. The marriage of practice, knowledge and spirit, depth and creative passion makes the dance become something so uplifting to the spirit within the audience. It becomes the transformative vehicle for the soul to grow and not just entertainment.

Within Middle Eastern dance in the West, the opportunity to explore and express an inner knowledge is tempered by a fascination with the glamour and beauty of the costumes, the ego and competition surrounding dance, the use of choreography to be the goal and purpose of learning the movements and the timidity of displaying such a sensual form for lack of experience in expressing it comfortably in a public space. So many experiences of shame with expressing this vitality and yet to see a dancer comfortable and joyful in her expression of her life force is one of the most beautiful visions. These veils of choreography, of costume, of timidity, of competition, the egos are like the veils of Ishtar as she descends into the underworld to release her lover, for ultimately in all people the love inside themselves yearns to be released before they can play with the veils of existence with ease . In mastering these veils the dancer goes within, to their body, their own expression and begins through practice and dedication to unveil their unique physical language, their own interpretation of how the music moves them. In all forms the essence is the surrender to the moment as the music inspires all manner of motion in the limbs and their corresponding emotion. The veil itself is a symbol of all these inner forces playing hide and seek within the dance and can embody each veil of the soul as it moves. When I see people dancing with the veil, both men and women, it is if I am watching what they allow themselves, what they struggle with, where their inward limitations lie, how much they are willing to let go, how they view their connection with their inner selves, how comfortable they are. I always say yes to the veil, and follow it into a journey across into the time of love, to innocence and wonder, where happiness is easy. I see others with their veils find the opening and they come and together we discover that the lightness of the silk and the air, the light and the music have become smiles and laughter and healthy breathing and bliss in motion.
In each individual’s hands it becomes an extension of the way they move, the way they relate to the world, whether it be like an explorer, a romantic, a performer or an artist. It brings their qualities into play with something that mirrors them. It is all expressed beyond the level of words and yet tells so much. In much of the same way that they explain the beginnings of life in the universe, the dance with the veil is this endless converging of formless energies giving birth to new languages that by the intensity of feeling provoked are suddenly brought to form and become an edifying signature of the dancer’s personality.
My own work with the veil came through studying with Sufi Master, Adnan Sarhan and because of the meditative quality of the work , he does, the veil has
become the source of many experiences of very deep and profound states of feeling and connection. At first dancing with the veil was a struggle to keep it graceful, let alone synchronize the finer shades of feeling with the music, look out from the corner of your eye to see how everyone else was doing and judge the beauty or lack of, my veil dance. I danced as if emotion was outside of me, learned from something I had seen and was trying to imitate. Many people would continue dancing with the veil and look completely absorbed. As my capacity to concentrate grew from doing the Sufi work, the relationship with the veil changed. Emotion found a way to focus and create for itself new expression and each time we danced with the veil more discoveries arose. Seeing others dance with the veil, though they were not dancers, taught me new ways to play with the veil. It was the innocence and individuality that found unique moves and feelings. Dancing with the veil feels beyond dance in a way because concentration on the veil becomes like an ecstasy. I follow the veil’s dance and my body becomes an extension of it and it becomes an extension of me. It gives other life to my being. It talks to me. It tells me the depth of what I am experiencing. It holds me beyond any form of suffering I might experience and gives my expression to creating a state of love. It sometimes even illicit such ecstasy that I don’t remember where I am or who I am. As I respect the veil more and respond with an intent to feel it’s moods so to does it give back to me a reflection potent with revelation that I may follow, and I don’t know where it will take me but it has given life already to the most hidden regions in my heart. It has softened the most irreverent creatures in my soul. It has offered it’s form to give expression to feelings I could never have spoken of so eloquently.
The veil began to show how much developing the spirit through chanting, whirling and slow movement opened my body and heart to a creative and very sensitive force that made dancing with the veil like an exploration of a newly discovered part of the soul. The veil work became a way to connect with the sanctuary of concentration . It is like an elevator lifting up beyond outward concerns, beyond emotion, beyond self and within that sanctuary the concentration opens more to show subtler levels of focus and how the tiniest disturbance of thought could break the flow between my body, the veil and the music. Without the veil I don’t think I could have ever reached this level of focus in front of an audience because the veil quieted the little monsters of self consciousness and allowed me to move beyond them. For many dancers the self consciousness distracts and pulls them away from the simple joy of dancing. Dancing with the veil often sets people free from those initial doubts and let them have fun and be able to reach out past the shyness and discomfort and just move. It seems to take the edge of seriousness away and makes adults play.

The Sufi work has had a profound effect on how I see dance. The states produced by the Sufi exercises are rich in intuitive revelation, where all the thoughts of
freedom, mystical union, contacting the beloved come to life within the dance, where I have encountered the ego exercising its obscene influence over the body, the limbs and the emotions as it stands stubbornly in the way of the ecstatic union in the moment, where the challenge of being so completely present fills the whole being with the euphoric contentment of living in the moment. The work is a powerful call on a cellular level and within each workshop or exercise there comes a feeling as if each cell in the body is singing in unison, creating a wholeness from the thousand s of elements and functions that allow us to exist. It is like an audience spellbound by the singer or the dancer, it is satisfied, focused and in harmony. When I saw the Om Kalthum documentary “ A Voice like Egypt” and how the audience and her responded to each other that is how the sufi work affected my being, like the heart was Om Kalthum, the body was the audience and the voice was like the spirit bathing everything in a warm, shared ecstasy.
Sitting in the workshop feeling this is often accompanied by the sound of Abdel Wahab’s music Cleopatra slowly rising in volume and letting me know that Adnan is about to invite people to dance with the veil. It is here that he sometimes asks me to dance with the veil and let the group watch to see what can be done with it. Even though sometimes it feels as if I cannot move from the state the work has put me in I have enough experience now to know that something will ignite inside and lead me in to being able to dance. Cleopatra is a slow but deeply powerful tune and always gives me the images of spring and of bounding happily through the new growth of forests with the wind and sun dancing across our bodies. The tempo holds me and makes me remember to breath and center and not rush and then it happens. The energy released from the previous exercises seems to possess the veil. It comes to life and I begin to watch it and move as if it is a partner to me. I begin to extend into movements I have never done before and where once I would have cut off a move before its completion I feel it extend outward to the very end of itself, articulated into the very last inch of my fingers within the rhythm as if time is expanding. The fullness of the emotion inside the dance ripples out into very subtle details or through very rhythmical repetitions, but always it is as if I am witnessing, as if a force inside, buried once by shyness or shame or inadequate strength, is set free and with the spirit expresses itself without any interference from my ego. Often Adnan will begin to play the tambourine and the rhythms shift to beats and the sound of the jingles penetrate the space and the dance becomes a testing of how much I can keep with the constant shifting of rhythms that Adnan is such a master of. The focus becomes so deep that a few times in concerts on high stages I have been able to spin and dance on the edge without fearing that I would ever fall because in the abandonment to the movement comes a complete attention. Sometimes the veil is like fire, sometimes like water, or storms or the calm of a soft breeze or the deep inhalation of an ocean, sometimes like a pause in time. The unfolding of possibilities in motion with the veil is endless like the seas. I peer into the folds as it floats above me and I haven’t the capacity to perceive it’s ending. If the world about me is too noisy with drama it’s door opens into a quiet and very gentle rapore that savors the quiet beating of the heart, the breath and the moments, when the silk floats and becomes the lilt of a soft voice that is singing the secrets of a living eternity existent always inside the moment. Songs of a love between humanity and creation, that blooms like a rose at the calling of day, like light moving into cold shadows, like the ebb and flow of the ocean and the moon.

Sometimes the energy of the group in the workshop comes to life in the veil as a shimmering sensitive vision of new perceptions. In whatever form the lightness and color of the silk has reflected the beautiful emerging of new energies within the being, within the atmosphere of the group as it is lifted into new feelings by the simple methods of sound, movement and breath. When the group is in a deep state the dance with the veil seems always to rise to higher, subtler levels and Adnan’s drumming keeps this openness continuing to expand without word, without the limit of time, without interference.
When I began to dance my body would freeze with self consciousness. Imagining that people were looking at me and judging me was suffocating the movement and the joy of moving. Everything was a rush and had to look exciti inside in an uncomfortable pause of “what do I do now”, a fear of time, all sorts of funny fears embellishing the dance with all kinds of disconnected motion. It was the way I lived then, “give everything you have in the shortest time possible and then get out of there before they find out there is nothing else”. I often think these same fears are embedded in systems within our culture and over time create an illusion of reason and purpose to disguise the fear. As I continued in the Sufi work with Adnan Sarhan these fears began to melt as time after time it slowly dawned on me that there was time and there was the beauty of the music and a corresponding beauty inside growing more and more content to express fully. As well as the dance I can see it in my life, more courage, confidence and even if sometimes I regress, by some shock, it is nothing in comparison to the contentment which accompanies me in daily life more and more. As the soul prospers, the dance matures and on it goes into an unfolding relationship. The dancing blessed with spirit enriches the being and the being rich in spirit enriches the dance. I have very far to go to see the day
when I could dance completely without my inner demons teasing and taunting but when I see dancers whose ease of motion is like beautiful poetry and their egos seem absent from their dance I am inspired and feel to watch them is a gift to the soul as well as a gift to the dance.
The dance becomes like life. the more comfortable you are in it the more it responds to you like a friend. The veil allows the dance to evolve. It gives you a lovely silky substance of color to yield to as the body responds without judgement to it. Time and space, color, movement, emotion, concentration, sensuality and music become friends. Often a beginner looks as if they are dancing on their own as if they are alone but a more experienced dancer seems to invite all kinds of energies conjuring them as they move making them alive for others to see. Dancing with the veil is a very simple way of conveying the feeling that you are not alone, that the space, the time and the light of the moment enters the veil and shows you that you are connected with them.
The veil is like a dream. It becomes the dream that awakens our relation to space,time, grace, feeling, breath. It pulls the invisible out of the dream an d brings it to this world. Dancing with the veil lets the spirit become choreographer and if we let it happen we are able to connect with our own selves within the dance. Like the dream of the silk worm whose small whirling motions weave a silky substance, the dreams of the silk veil begin to unwind the limited cocoons of our consciousness that veil us from the experience of being butterflies in the garden of our existence. -Tamsin Murray

Text: To turn to something a little gayer, – the embroidery on this tattered coat of civilized life, – I went into only two theatres; one the Old Drury, once the scene of great glories, now of execrable music and more execrable acting. If anything can be invented more excruciating than an English opera, such as was the fashion at the time I was in London, I am sure no sin of mine deserves the punishment of bearing it.
At the Sadler’s Wells theatre I saw a play which I had much admired in reading it, but found still better in actual representation; indeed, it seems to me there can be no better acting play: this is “The Patrician’s Daughter,” by J.W. Marston. The movement is rapid, yet clear and free; the dialogue natural, dignified, and flowing; the characters marked with few, but distinct strokes. Where the tone of discourse rises with manly sentiment or passion, the audience applauded with bursts of generous feeling that gave me great pleasure, for this play is one that, in its scope and meaning, marks the new era in England; it is full of an experience which is inevitable to a man of talent there, and is harbinger of the day when the noblest commoner shall be the only noble possible in England.
But how different all this acting to what I find in France! Here the theatre is living; you see something really good, and good throughout. Not one touch of that stage strut and vulgar bombast of tone, which the English actor fancies indispensable to scenic illusion, is tolerated here. For the first time in my life I saw something represented in a style uniformly good, and should have found sufficient proof, if I had needed any, that all men will prefer what is good to what is bad, if only a fair opportunity for choice be allowed. When I came here, my first thought was to go and see Mademoiselle Rachel. I was sure that in her I should find a true genius, absolutely the diamond, and so it proved. I went to see her seven or eight times, always in parts that required great force of soul and purity of taste even to conceive them, and only once had reason to find fault with her. On one single occasion I saw her violate the harmony of the character to produce effect at a particular moment; but almost invariably I found her a true artist, worthy Greece, and worthy at many moments to have her conceptions immortalized in marble.
Her range even in high tragedy is limited. She can only express the darker passions, and grief in its most desolate aspects. Nature has not gifted her with those softer and more flowery attributes that lend to pathos its utmost tenderness. She does not melt to tears, or calm or elevate the heart by the presence of that tragic beauty that needs all the assaults of Fate to make it show its immortal sweetness. Her noblest aspect is when sometimes she expresses truth in some severe shape, and rises, simple and austere, above the mixed elements around her. On the dark side, she is very great in hatred and revenge. I admired her more in Phèdre than in any other part in which I saw her. The guilty love inspired by the hatred of a goddess was expressed in all its symptoms with a force and terrible naturalness that almost suffocated the beholder. After she had taken the poison, the exhaustion and paralysis of the system, the sad, cold, calm submission to Fate, were still more grand.
I had heard so much about the power of her eye in one fixed look, and the expression she could concentrate in a single word, that the utmost results could only satisfy my expectations. It is, indeed, something magnificent to see the dark cloud live out such sparks, each one fit to deal a separate death; but it was not that I admired most in her: it was the grandeur, truth, and depth of her conception of each part, and the sustained purity with which she represented it.
For the rest, I shall write somewhere a detailed critique upon the parts in which I saw her. It is she who has made me acquainted with the true way of viewing French tragedy. I had no idea of its powers and symmetry till now, and have received from the revelation high pleasure and a crowd of thoughts.
The French language from her lips is a divine dialect; it is stripped of its national and personal peculiarities, and becomes what any language must, moulded by such a genius, – the pure music of the heart and soul. I never could remember her tone in speaking any word; it was too perfect; you had received the thought quite direct. Yet, had I never heard her speak a word, my mind would be filled by her attitudes. Nothing more graceful can be conceived, nor could the genius of sculpture surpass her management of the antique drapery.
She has no beauty except in the intellectual severity of her outline, and bears marks of age which will grow stronger every year, and make her ugly before long. Still it will be a grandiose, gypsy, or rather Sibylline ugliness, well adapted to the expression of some tragic parts. Only it seems as if she could not live long; she expends force enough upon a part to furnish out a dozen common lives.
Though the French tragedy is well acted throughout, yet unhappily there is no male actor now with a spark of fire, and these men seem the meanest pigmies by the side of Rachel; — so on the scene, beside the tragedy intended by the author, you see also that common tragedy, a woman of genius who throws away her precious heart, lives and dies for one unworthy of her. In parts this effect is productive of too much pain. I saw Rachel one night with her brother and sister. The sister imitated her so closely that you could not help seeing she had a manner, and an imitable manner. Her brother was in the play her lover, —a wretched automaton, and presenting the most unhappy family likeness to herself. Since then I have hardly cared to go and see her. We could wish with geniuses, as with the Phoenix, to see only one of the family at a time.

Notes of a Journey through France and Italy
Mademoiselle Mars as Célimène in Le Misanthrope, n.d., via Gallica
Source: William Hazlitt, Notes of a Journey through France and Italy (London: Printed for Hunt and Clarke, 1826), pp. 114-125 (originally published in the Morning Chronicle, 17 November 1824)
Production: Molière, Le Misanthrope, Comédie-Française, Paris, November 1824
Text: MADEMOISELLE MARS (of whom so much has been said) quite comes up to my idea of an accomplished comic actress. I do not know that she does more than this, or imparts a feeling of excellence that we never had before, and are at a loss how to account for afterwards (as was the case with our Mrs. Jordan and Mrs. Siddons in opposite departments,) but she answers exactly to a preconception in the mind, and leaves nothing wanting to our wishes. I had seen nothing of the kind on our stage for many years, and my satisfaction was the greater, as I had often longed to see it. The last English actress who shone in genteel comedy was Miss Farren, and she was just leaving the stage when I first became acquainted with it. She was said to be a faint copy of Mrs. Abington—but I seem to see her yet, glittering in the verge of the horizon, fluttering, gay, and airy, the “elegant turn of her head,” the nodding plume of feathers, the gloves and fan, the careless mien, the provoking indifference—we have had nothing like it since, for I cannot admit that Miss O’Neil had the Lady-Teazle air at all. Out of tragedy she was awkward and heavy. She could draw out a white, patient, pathetic pocket-handkerchief with great grace and simplicity; she had no notion of flirting a fan. The rule here is to do every thing without effort—
– – “Flavia the least and slightest toy
Can with resistless art employ.”
This art is lost among us; the French still have it in very considerable perfection. Really, it is a fine thing to see Molière’s Misanthrope, at the Theatre Français, with Mademoiselle Mars as Celimène. I had already seen some very tolerable acting at the minor French Theatres, but I remained sceptical; I still had my English scruples hanging about me, nor could I get quite reconciled to the French manner. For mannerism is not excellence. It might be good, but I was not sure of it. Whatever one hesitates about in this way, is not the best. If a thing is first-rate, you see it at once, or the fault is yours. True genius will always get the better of our local prejudices, for it has already surmounted its own. For this reason, one becomes an immediate convert to the excellence of the French school of serious comedy. Their actors have lost little or nothing of their spirit, tact, or skill in embodying the wit and sense of their favourite authors. The most successful passages do not interfere with our admiration of the best samples of English acting, or run counter to our notions of propriety. That which we thought well done among ourselves, we here see as well or better done; that which we thought defective, avoided. The excellence or even superiority of the French over us only confirms the justness of our taste. If the actor might feel some jealousy, the critic can feel none. What Englishman does not read Molière with pleasure? Is it not a treat then to see him well acted? There is nothing to recall our national antipathies, and we are glad to part with such unpleasant guests.
The curtain is scarcely drawn up, when something of this effect is produced in the play I have mentioned, and the entrance of Mademoiselle Mars decides it. Her few first simple sentences—her “Mon Ami” at her lover’s first ridiculous suggestion, the mingled surprise, displeasure, and tenderness in the tone—her little peering eyes, full of languor and archness of meaning—the peaked nose and thin compressed lips, opening into an intelligent, cordial smile—her self-possession—her slightest gesture—the ease and rapidity of her utterance, every word of which is perfectly distinct—the playful, wondering good-nature with which she humours the Misanthrope’s eccentricities throughout, and the finer tone of sense and feeling in which she rejects his final proposal, must stamp her a favourite with the English as well as with the French part of the audience. I cannot see why that should not be the case. She is all life and spirit. Would we be thought entirely without them? She has a thorough understanding and relish of her author’s text. So, we think, have we. She has character, expression, decision—they are the very things we pique ourselves upon. Ease, grace, propriety—we aspire to them, if we have them not. She is free from the simagrées, the unmeaning petulance and petty affectation that we reproach the French with, and has none of the awkwardness, insipidity, or vulgarity that we are so ready to quarrel with at home. It would be strange if the English did not admire her as much as they profess to do. I have seen but one book of travels in which she was abused, and that was written by a Scotchman! Mademoiselle Mars is neither handsome nor delicately formed. She has not the light airy grace, nor the evanescent fragility of appearance that distinguished Miss Farren, but more point and meaning, or more of the intellectual part of comedy.
She was admirably supported in Celimène. Monsieur Damas played the hero of the Misanthrope, and played it with a force and natural freedom which I had no conception of as belonging to the French stage. If they drawl out their tragic rhymes into an endless sing-song, they cut up their comic verses into mincemeat. The pauses, the emphasis, are left quite ad libitum, and are as sudden and varied as in the most familiar or passionate conversation. In Racine they are obliged to make an effort to get out of themselves, and are solemn and well-behaved; in Molière they are at home, and commit all sorts of extravagances with wonderful alacrity and effect. Heroes in comedy, pedants in tragedy, they are greatest on small occasions; and their most brilliant efforts arise out of the ground of common life. Monsieur Damas’s personification of the Misanthrope appeared to me masterly. He had apparently been chosen to fill the part for his ugliness; but he played the lover and the fanatic with remarkable skill, nature, good-breeding, and disordered passion. The rapidity, the vehemence of his utterance and gestures, the transitions from one feeling to another, the fond rapture, the despair, the rage, the sarcastic coolness, the dignified contempt, were much in the style of our most violent tragic representations, and such as we do not see in our serious comedy or in French tragedy. The way in which this philosophic madman gave a loose to the expression of his feelings, when he first suspects the fidelity of his mistress, when he quarrels with her, and when he is reconciled to her, was strikingly affecting. It was a regular furious scolding-bout, with the ordinary accompaniments of tears, screams, and hysterics. A comic actor with us would have made the part insipid and genteel; a tragic one with them pompous and affected. At Drury-lane, Mr. Powell would take the part. Our fine gentlemen are walking suits of clothes; their tragic performers are a professor’s gown and wig: the Misanthrope of Molière, as Monsieur Damas plays it, is a true orator and man, of genius. If they pour the oil of decorum over the loftier waves of tragedy, their sentimental comedy is like a puddle in a storm. The whole was admirably cast, and ought to make the English ashamed of themselves, if they are not above attending to any thing that can give pleasure to themselves or other people. Arsinoe, the friend and rival of Celimène, was played by Madame –, a ripe, full-blown beauty, a prude, the redundancies of whose person and passions are kept in due bounds by tight lacing and lessons of morality. Eliante was a Mademoiselle Menjaud, a very amiable-looking young person, and exactly fitted to be an elève in this School for Scandal. She smiled and blushed and lisped mischief in the prettiest manner imaginable. The man who comes to read his Sonnet to Alceste was inimitable. His teeth had an enamel, his lips a vermilion, his eyes a brilliancy, his smile a self-complacency, such as never met in poet or in peer, since Revolutions and Reviews came into fashion. He seemed to have been preserved in a glass-case for the last hundred and fifty years, and to have walked out of it in these degenerate days, dressed in brocade, in smiles and self-conceit, to give the world assurance of what a Frenchman was! Philinte was also one of those prosing confidants, with grim features, and profound gravity, that are to be found in all French plays, and who, by their patient attention to a speech of half an hour long, acquire an undoubted right to make one of equal length in return. When they were all drawn up in battle-array, in the scene near the beginning, which Sheridan has copied, it presented a very formidable aspect indeed, and the effect was an historical deception. You forgot you were sitting at a play at all, and fancied yourself transported to the court or age of Louis XIV.!—Blest period —the triumph of folly and of France, when, instead of poring over systems of philosophy, the world lived in a round of impertinence—when to talk nonsense was wit, to listen to it politeness—when men thought of nothing but themselves, and turned their heads with dress instead of the affairs of Europe—when the smile of greatness was felicity, the smile of beauty Elysium—and when men drank the brimming nectar of self-applause, instead of waiting for the opinion of the reading public! Who would not fling himself back to this period of idle enchantment? But as we cannot, the best substitute for it is to see a comedy of Molière’s acted at the Theatre Français. The thing is there imitated to the life.
After all, there is something sufficiently absurd and improbable in this play. The character from which it takes its title is not well made out. A misanthrope and a philanthropist are the same thing, as Rousseau has so well shewn in his admirable criticism on this piece. Besides, what can be so nationally characteristic as the voluntary or dramatic transfers of passion in it! Alceste suspects his mistress’s truth, and makes an abrupt and violent declaration of love to another woman in consequence, as if the passion (in French) went along with the speech, and our feelings could take any direction at pleasure which we bethought ourselves of giving them. And then again, when after a number of outrages and blunders committed by himself, he finds he is in the wrong, and that he ought to be satisfied with Celimène and the world, which turns out no worse than he always thought it; he takes, in pure spite and the spirit of contradiction, the resolution to quit her forever, unless she will agree to go and live with him in a wilderness. This is not misanthropy, but sheer “midsummer madness.” It is a mere idle abstract determination to be miserable, and to make others so, and not the desperate resource of bitter disappointment (for he has received none) nor is it in the least warranted by the proud indignation of a worthy sensible man at the follies of the world (which character Alceste is at first represented to be.) It is a gratuitous start of French imagination, which is still in extremes, and ever in the wrong. Why, I would ask, must a man be either a mere courtier and man of the world, pliant to every custom, or a mere enthusiast and maniac, absolved from common sense and reason? Why could not the hero of the piece be a philosopher, a satirist, a railer at mankind in general, and yet marry Celimène, with whom he is in love, and who has proved herself worthy of his regard? The extravagance of Timon is tame and reasonable to this, for Timon had been ruined by his faith in mankind, whom he shuns. Yet the French would consider Timon as a very farouche and outré sort of personage. To be hurried into extremities by extreme suffering and wrong, is with them absurd and shocking: to play the fool without a motive or in virtue of making a set speech, they think in character and keeping. So far, to be sure, we differ in the first principles of dramatic composition. A similar remark might be made on the Tartuffe. This character is detected over and over again in acts of the most barefaced profligacy and imposture; he makes a fine speech on the occasion, and Orgon very quietly puts the offence in his pocket. This credulity to verbal professions would be tolerated on no stage but the French, as natural or probable. Plain English practical good sense would revolt at it as a monstrous fiction. But the French are so fond of hearing themselves talk, that they take a sort of interest (by proxy) in whatever affords an opportunity for an ingenious and prolix harangue, and attend to the dialogue of their plays, as they might to the long-winded intricacies of a law-suit. Mr. Bartolino Saddletree would have assisted admirably at a genuine prosing French Comedy.
Mademoiselle Mars played also in the afterpiece, a sort of shadowy Catherine and Petruchio. She is less at home in the romp than in the fine lady. She did not give herself up to the “whole loosened soul” of farce, nor was there the rich laugh, the sullen caprice, the childish delight and astonishment in the part, that Mrs. Jordan would have thrown into it. Mrs. Orger would have done it almost as well. There was a dryness and restraint, as if there was a constant dread of running into caricature. The outline was correct, but the filling up was not bold or luxuriant. There is a tendency in the lighter French comedy to a certain jejuneness of manner, such as we see in lithographic prints. They do not give full swing to the march of the humour, just as in their short, tripping walk they seem to have their legs tied. Madame Marsan is in this respect superior. There was an old man and woman in the same piece, in whom the quaint drollery of a couple of veteran retainers in the service of a French family was capitally expressed. The humour of Shakspeare’s play, as far as it was extracted, hit very well.—The behaviour of the audience throughout exemplary. There was no crowd at the door, though the house was as full as it could hold; and indeed most of the places are bespoke, whenever any of their standard pieces are performed. The attention never flags; and the buzz of eager expectation and call for silence, when the curtain draws up, is just the same as with us when an Opera is about to be performed, or a song to be sung. A French audience are like flies caught in treacle. Their wings are clogged, and it is all over with their friskings and vagaries. Their bodies and their minds set at once. They have, in fact, a national theatre and a national literature, which we have not. Even well-informed people among us hardly know the difference between Otway and Shakspeare; and if a person has a fancy for any of our elder classics, he may have it to himself for what the public cares. The French, on the contrary, know and value their best authors. They have Molière and Racine by heart—they come to their plays as to an intellectual treat; and their beauties are reflected in a thousand minds around you, as you see your face at every turn in the Café des Milles-Colonnes. A great author or actor is really in France what one fancies them in England, before one knows any thing of the world as it is called. It is a pity we should set ourselves up as the only reading or reflecting people—ut lucus a non lucendo. But we have here no oranges in the pit, no cry of porter and cider, no jack-tars to encore Mr. Braham three times in “The Death of Abercrombie,” and no play-bills. This last is a great inconvenience to strangers, and is what one would not expect from a play-going people; though it probably arises from that very circumstance, as they are too well acquainted with the actors and pieces to need a prompter. They are not accidental spectators, but constant visitors, and may be considered as behind the scenes.
Comments: William Hazlitt (1778-1830) was an English essayist, journalist and literary critic. His Notes of a Journey through France and Italy records his impressions of a tour of Europe (not just France and Italy) made in 1824-25. It was based on articles Hazlitt wrote for the Morning Chronicle newspaper. His visit to the Théâtre-Français (Comédie-Française) to see Molière‘s Le Misanthrope took place around November 1824. The afterpiece was a reduction of Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew, which Hazlitt says was similar to David Garrick’s Catherine and Petruchio but which was presumably not actually that work. The performers described include Mademoiselle Mars and Alexandre-Martial-Auguste Damas.

Text: The tragedy of Hamlet, in which we saw Talma perform for the first time, is one which must be interesting to every person who has any acquaintance with French literature; and it will not probably be considered as any great digression in a description of Talma’s excellencies as an actor, to add some further remarks concerning that celebrated play in which his powers are perhaps most strikingly displayed, and which is one of the greatest compositions undoubtedly of the French theatre. It can hardly be called a translation, as many material alterations were made in the story of the play; and though the general purport of the principal speeches has
been sometimes preserved, the language and sentiments are generally extremely different. The character of Shakespeare’s Hamlet was wholly unsuited to the taste of a French audience. What is the great attraction in that mysterious being to the feelings of the English people, the strange, wild, and metaphysical ideas which his art or his madness seems to take such pleasure in starting, and the uncertainty in which Shakespeare has left the reader with regard to Hamlet’s real situation, would not perhaps have been understood — certainly not admired, by those who were accustomed to consider the works of Racine and Voltaire as the models of dramatic composition. In the play of Ducis, accordingly, Hamlet thinks, talks, and acts pretty much as any other human being would do, who should be compelled to speak only in the verse of the French tragedy, which necessarily excludes, in a great degree, any great incoherence or flightiness of sentiment. In some respects, however, the French Hamlet, if a less poetical personage, is nevertheless a more interesting one, and better adapted to excite those feelings which are most within the command of the actor’s genius. M. Ducis has represented him as more doubtful of the reality of the vision which haunted him, or at least of the authority which had commissioned it for such dreadful communications; and this alteration, so important in the hands of Talma, was required on account of other changes which had been made in the story of the play. The paramour of the Queen is not Hamlet’s uncle, nor had the Queen either married the murderer, or discovered her criminal connexion with him. Hamlet, therefore, has not, in the incestuous marriage of his mother, that strong confirmation of the ghost’s communication, which, in Shakespeare, led him to suspect foul play even before he sees his father’s spirit. In the French play, therefore, Hamlet is placed in one of the most dreadful situations in which the genius of poetry can imagine a human being: Haunted by a spirit, which assumes such mastery over his mind, that he cannot dispel the fearful impression it has made, or disregard the communication it so often repeats, while his attachment to his mother, in whom he reveres the parent he has lost, makes him question the truth of crimes which are thus kid to her charge, and causes him to look upon this terrific spectre as the punishment of unknown crime, and the visitation of an offended Deity. Ducis has most judiciously and most poetically represented Hamlet, in the despair which his sufferings produce, as driven to the belief of an overruling destiny, disposing of the fate of its unhappy victims by the most arbitrary and revolting arrangement, and visiting upon some, with vindictive fury, the whole crimes of the age in which they live. There is in this introduction of ancient superstition, something which throws a mysterious veil round the destiny of Hamlet, that irresistibly engrosses the imagination, and which must be doubly interesting in that country where the horrors of the revolution have ended in producing a very prevalent, though vague belief, in the influence of fatality upon human character and human actions, among those who pretend to ridicule, as unmanly prejudice and childish delusion, the religion of modern Europe.
The struggle, accordingly, that appears to take place in Hamlet’s mind is most striking; and when at last he yields to the authority and the commands of the spirit, which exercises such tyranny over his mind, it does not seem the result of any farther evidence of the guilt which he is enjoined to revenge, but as the triumph of superstition over the strength of his reason. He had long resisted the influence of that visionary being, which announced itself as his father’s injured spirit, and in assuming that sacred form, had urged him to destroy the only parent whom fate had left; but the struggle had brought him to the brink of the grave, and shaken the empire of reason; and when at last he abandons himself to the guidance of a power which his firmer nature had long resisted, the impression of the spectator is, that his mind has yielded in the struggle, and that, in the desperate hope of obtaining relief from present wretchedness, he is about to commit the most horrible crimes, by obeying the suggestions of a spirit, which he more than suspects to be employed only to tempt him on to perdition. No description can possibly do justice to the manner in which this situation of Hamlet is represented by Talma; indeed, on reading over the play some time afterwards, it was very evident that the powers of the actor had invested the character with much of the grandeur and terror which seemed to belong to it, and that the imagination of the French poet, which rises into excellence, even when compared with the productions of that great master of the passions whom he has not submitted to copy, has been surpassed by the fancy of the actor for whom he wrote. The Hamlet of Talma is probably productive of more profound emotion, than any representation of character on any stage ever excited.
One other alteration ought to be mentioned, as it renders the circumstances of Hamlet’s situation still more distressing, and affords Talma an opportunity of displaying the effects of one of the gentler passions of human nature, when its influence seemed irreconcileable with the stern and fearful duties which fate had assigned to him. The Ophelia of the French play, so unlike that beautiful and innocent being who alone seems to connect the Hamlet of Shakespeare with the feelings and nature of ordinary men, has been made the daughter of the man for whose sake the king has been poisoned, and was engaged to marry Hamlet at that happier period when he was the ornament of his father’s court, and the hope of his father’s subjects. In the first part of the play, though no hint of the terrible revenge which he was to execute on her father has escaped, the looks and anxiety of Talma discover to her that her fate is in some degree connected with the emotions which so visibly oppress him, and she makes him at last confess the insurmountable barrier which separates them for ever. Nothing can be greater than the acting of Talma during this difficult scene, in which he has to resist the entreaties of the woman whom he loves, when imploring for the life of her father, and yet so overcome with his affection, as hardly to have strength left to adhere to his dreadful purpose.
The feelings of a French audience do not permit the spirit of Hamlet’s father to appear on the stage: “L’apparition se passe, (says Madame de Stael), en entier dans la physionomie de Talma, et certes elle n’en est pas ainsi moins effrayante. Quand, au milieu d’un entretien calme et melancohque, tout a coup il aperçoit le spectre, on suit tout ses mouvemens dans les yeux qui le contemplent, et l’on ne peut outer de la presence du fantome quand un tel regard l’atteste.” The remark is perfectly just, nothing can be imagined more calculated to dispel at once the effect which the countenance of a great actor, in such circumstances, would naturally produce, than bringing any one on the stage to personate the ghost; and whever has seen Talma in this part, will acknowledge that the mind is not disposed to doubt, for an instant, the existence of that form which no eye but his has seen, and of that voice which no ear but his has heard. We regretted much, while witnessing the astonishing powers which Talma displayed in this very difficult part of the play, that it was impossible to see his genius employed in giving effect to the character of Aristodemo, (in the Italian tragedy of that name by Monti), to which his talents alone could do justice, and which, perhaps, affords more room for the display of the actor’s powers, than any other play with which we are acquainted.
But the soliloquy on death is the part in which the astonishing excellence and genius of Talma are most strikingly displayed. Whatever difficulty there may often be to determine the particular manner in which scenes, with other characters, ought to be performed, there is no difference of opinion as to the manner in which soliloquies ought in general to be delivered. How comes it, then, that these are the very parts in which all feel that the powers of the actors are so much tried, and in which, for the most part, they principally fail? No one can have paid any attention to the English stage, without being struck with the circumstance, that while there may be much to praise in the performance of the other parts, many of the best actors uniformly fail in soliloquies; and that it is only of late, since the reputation of the English stage has been so splendidly revived, that we have seen these difficult and interesting parts properly performed. It is in this circumstance, more than any other, in which the talents of Talma are most remarkably displayed, because he is peculiarly fitted, by his complete personation of character, and the deep interest which he seems himself to take in the part he is sustaining, to excel in performing what chiefly requires such interest. He is, at all times, so fully impressed with the feelings, which, under such circumstances, must have been really felt, that one is uniformly struck with the truth and propriety of every thing he does; and of course, n soliloquies, which must be perfect, when the actor appears to be seriously and deeply interested in the subjects on which he is meditating, Talma invariably succeeds. In this soliloquy in Hamlet, he is completely absorbed in the awful importance of the great question which occupies his attention, and nothing indicates the least consciousness of the multitude which surrounds him, or even that he is giving utterance to the mighty thoughts which crowd upon his mind. “Talma ne faisoit pas un geste, quelquefois seulement il remuoit la tête pour questioner la terre et le ciel sur ce que c’est que la mort! Immobile, la dignite de la meditation absorboit tout son etre.” We could wish to avoid any attempt to describe the acting of Talma in those passages which the eloquence of M. de Stael has rendered familiar throughout Europe; yet we feel that this account of the tragedy of Hamlet would be imperfect, if we did not allude to that very interesting scene, which corresponds, in the history of the play, to the closet scene in Shakespeare. Talma appears with the urn which contains the ashes of his father, and whose injured spirit he seems to consult, to obtain more proof of the guilt which he is to revenge, or in the hope that the affections of human nature may yet survive the horrors of the tomb, and that the duty of the son will not be tried in the blood of the parent who gave him birth. But no voice is heard to alter the sentence which he is doomed to execute; and he is still compelled to prepare himself to meet with sternness his guilty mother. After charging her, with the utmost tenderness and solemnity, with the knowledge of her husband’s murder, he places the urn in her hands, and requires her to swear her innocence over the sacred ashes which it contains. At first, the consciousness that Hamlet could only suspect her crime, gives her resolution to commence the oath with firmness; and Talma, with an expression of countenance which cannot be described, awaits, in triumph and joy, the confirmation of her innocence, — and seems to call upon the spirit which had haunted him, to behold the solemn scene which proves the falsehood of its mission. But the very tenderness which he shews destroys the resolution of his mother, and she hesitates in the oath she had begun to pronounce. His feelings are at once changed, — the paleness of horror, and fury of revenge, are marked in his countenance, and his hands grasp the steel which is to punish her guilt: But the agony of his mother again overpowers him, at the moment he is about to strike; he appeals for mercy to the shade of his father, in a voice, in which, as M. de Stael has truly said, all the feelings of human nature seem at once to burst from his heart, and, in an attitude humbled by the view of his mother’s guilt and wretchedness, he awaits the confession she seems ready to make: and when she sinks, overcome by the remorse and agony which she feels, he remembers only that she is his mother; the affection which had been long repressed again returns, and he throws himself on his knees, to assure her of the mercy of Heaven. We do not wish to be thought so presumptuous as to compare the talents of the French author with the genius of Shakespeare, but we must be allowed to say, that we think this scene better managed for dramatic effect: and certainly no part of Hamlet, on the English stage, ever produced the same impression, or affected us so deeply. We are well aware, however, how very different the scene would have appeared in the hands of any other actors than Talma and Madle. Duchesnois, and that a very great part of the merit which the play seemed to possess, might be more justly attributed to the talents which they displayed. At the conclusion of this great tragedy, which has become so popular in France, and in which the genius of Talma is so powerfully exhibited, the applause was universal; and after some little time, to our surprise, instead of diminishing, became much louder; and presently a cry of Talma burst out from the whole house. In a few minutes the curtain drew up, and discovered Talma waiting to receive the applause with which they honoured him, and to express his sense of the distinction paid to him.
Comments: Archibald Alison (1792-1867) was a Scottish lawyer and historian, author of the ten-volume History of Europe from the Commencement of the French Revolution in 1789 to the Restoration of the Bourbons in 1815 (1833-1843). Jean-François Ducis helped introduce Shakespeare to the French through adaptations of the plays in which elements of the plot were sometimes radically altered. His adaptation of Hamlet was made in 1760. Ducis’s adaptations were billed under his name rather than Shakespeare‘s. François-Joseph Talma performed in a number of Ducis’s adaptations. Hamlet’s mother was played by Joséphine Duchesnois. Madame de Staël wrote about Talma’s Hamlet in De l’Allemagne (1813).

Text: 26th. In the evening to the Théâtre Français. When a favourite piece is performed, it is necessary to be at the doors some time before they are opened. But the candidates for places have the good sense to perceive the inconvenience of thronging in a disorderly manner, and the established rule is to form à la queue as it is called; that is, in a column of two a-breast, and every one is obliged to take his place in the rear, in the order in which he arrives. This is done with as much order and regularity as would be observed in a regiment of soldiers; in consequence of which the whole business is conducted without the smallest tumult, and with ease to every one. It is true that the gens d’armes in attendance have authority to enforce this rule, if there should be any person so unreasonable as to refuse compliance; but still great credit is due to the French for their ready adoption of what is rational. The play was Joanne d’Arc. Mademoiselle Duchesnois was the heroine, and a most alarmingly ugly heroine she made; but bodily defects are of little importance if the soul be of the right temper. When that is the case –
“Pritchard’s genteel, and Garrick’s six feet high.”
Her face, however plain, is capable of considerable variety of expression; and, what is of more importance than beauty, there is a great deal of mind in her countenance; for this is absolutely necessary to command our interest and sympathy. Who can sympathize with a simpleton, even if it be a pretty simpleton? Duchesnois drew down much applause, and she deserved it;-she feels justly, and has the faculty of expressing what she feels. This is the extent of her merit; but here, where there is so much unnatural declamation, her style appears to the greatest advantage.
Mademoiselle Volnais, for example, with a plump unmeaning pretty face, chants out her part, with no more apparent feeling or understanding than a parrot.
La Fond, who is a great favourite with the audience, played Talbot with something that was very like spirit and dignity; but he can never conceal the actor; he is all “strut and bellow;” and his voice, though it has great compass, is harsh and unpleasant. The political allusions of which the play is full, particularly the prophetic denunciations of Joanne against England, were eagerly seized by the audience, and rancorously applauded. It must require all the vanity of the French, to sit and hear, as the audience did with patience and complacency, the most fulsome and disgusting flattery addressed to their national feelings, in the vilest and worst taste of clap-traps. The very gallery in England has grown out of its liking for this sort of stuff.
A new after-piece followed—“Les Femmes Politiques;” a pretty trifle written in elegant language, which was charmingly delivered. Mademoiselle Mars and Mademoiselle Dupuis played delightfully; Baptiste ainé looked and spoke like the old gentleman he represented; and Monrose excited a laugh without descending to buffoonery and caricature. This sort of conversational French comedy is delightful;-it is Nature in her best dress—polite—well bred—and sparkling.
But, in comedies where there is more room for the exhibition of comic humour, the French actors are perhaps inferior to our own. We shall in vain look for parallels of what Lewis was, or what Munden and Dowton are; and even with respect to Mademoiselle Mars, excellent as she is in the first and highest walks of comedy, for which she seems designed by nature—being very beautiful, very graceful, and perfectly well-bred;—yet, in characters of archness and humour, she might put a little more heart, and a great deal more mind into her representations. We miss the force, the richness, and the warmth of Mrs. Jordan’s acting, and the exquisite point that she had the art of giving to comic dialogue; which only wanted the embellishments and good-breeding of the French Thalia, to constitute a perfect actress.
The point of perfection would perhaps be found somewhere between the styles of the two nations. To take an example from the Tartuffe —the famous scene between Tartuffe and Elmire is scarcely played up to the intention of the author, by Damas and Mademoiselle Mars, and it certainly might be coloured higher, without overstepping the modesty of nature. Dowton, in Cantwell, may go a little too far with Lady Lambert—and yet who can think so that remembers the effect produced by his management of the interview?— but Damas, in Tartuffe, does not go far enough with Elmire. The scene “comes tardy off:”—bienséance, when carried too far, is a millstone round the neck of tragedy and comedy. Congreve says well, that a scene on the stage must represent nature, but in warmer colours than it exists in reality. It is in Molière particularly, perhaps exclusively, that the French comedians seem to fall short of the author; for Molière is the most humorous of all their writers. He is the Fielding of France, and there is a richness and a raciness about him which are sometimes frittered away in the representation.
Comments: Henry Matthews (1789-1828) was a British judge. On account of ill health, he went on a recuperative tour of Europe over 1817-1819. The published diary of his travels, The Diary of an Invalid (1820), was very popular and went through a number of editions. The two-volume diary has several entries on theatregoing. The play w=he saw at the Théâtre Français (the Comédie-Française) was Charles-Joseph Laeillard d’Avirigni’s Jeanne d’Arc à Rouen, with Joan played by Joséphine Duchesnois. The afterpiece was Les Femmes politiques, a verse comedy by Étienne Gosse. Other performers mentioned include Mlle. Volnais, M. Lafond, Mademoiselle Mars, Mlle. Dupuis and Nicolas Anselme Baptiste (Baptiste aîné).

Text: Saturday 19. — Employed this Morning in writing. Dine at Monsr. de Corny’s, in consequence of a Note from Madame, desiring the Engagement for Tomorrow may take Effect this Day. After Dinner converse with de Corny about a Contract for supplying Flour to Paris, and offer him a fourth Concern. He desires a Note of my Ideas, which I promise. The Conversation is as usual political. From hence I go to the french Theatre and see the Chef-d’oeuvre of Racine, Athalie. It is well performed and is well calculated for Performance. There is however a Deal of ridiculous Gesticulation during the Time in which the high Priest is inspired but this can hardly be avoided, for the Mutes, who cannot in the usual Course of Things possess the Talents which are required to speak to the Eye, must either appear as insensible Statues or ludicrous Pantomimes. Hence results a Maxim for Theatrical Exhibitions which I do not remember to have met with anywhere: the Stage should never be filled on great and solemn Occasions. The Procession may be admitted and a Crowd may appear when only common Emotions are to be expressed, or when Laughter is to be excited by Something outré, because most Men have Talents enough to render themselves ridiculous, but very few are able to excite, much less to sustain, the greater Sensations of the Soul such as Terror & Admiration. Return Home immediately after the Piece and write what I promised to de Corny. This has been a rainy disagree[e]able Day.
Comments: Gouverneur Morris (1752-1816) was one of the founding fathers of the United States of America, author of the Preamble to the US Constitution. He went to France in 1789 and was Minister Plenipotentiary to France 1792-1794. His diary provides a vivid account of the French Revolution and includes several accounts of visits to the Paris theatre. The ‘French Theatre’ is the Comédie-Française.

I still think her greatest in her excessive quiet and repose, her tenderness is wonderful, the stormy bits are splendid, tho’ not as splendid here as in Phèdre. Mounet-Sully who acts with her very much overdoes voice and gestures, wh. is a great pity. The final Death scene very fine.
Comments: Mary Gladstone (1847-1927) was a writer and political secretary, daughter of the British prime minister William Gladstone. Her diaries regularly mention visits to the theatre, Hernani was a drama by the French novelist and dramatist Victor Hugo.

Extracts of the Journals and Correspondence of Miss Berry

Text: Monday, July 6th. — M. de Duras gave us tickets for this week in the box of the gentlemen in waiting. I arrived in time to see the last scene’ of Talma, in ‘Manlius.’ It was the night of his return to the theatre after rather a long absence. On the curtain falling, they called loudly for him, with a noise and a disturbance much more like London than Paris. Three times they in vain began the second piece; it was impossible to hear a word. Three times the two actresses who had to commence the piece took refuge in the side scenes. At last, whilst Baptiste Cadet came forward to address the audience, some officer of the police, in his scarf of office, announced that, by an order of the police, the actors were forbidden to appear upon the stage out of their parts. One might well ask why this rule? which prevents the audience from showing, and the actor from receiving, these marks of approbation. They have much to learn in this country upon the ne quid nimis in the way of government. At last the audience was asked if they would have the second piece, ‘L’Aveugle Clairvoyant.’ Upon the reiterated ‘Ouis’ from the pit, they replied, ‘Vous l’aurez quand ces misérables criards ont cesses.’ On this the noise was renewed for some minutes, after which we had the piece very well acted and very amusing.
Comments: Mary Berry (1763-1852) was a British editor, letter writer and diarist, known for her close association with Horace Walpole. Her published journals and correspondence include many theatregoing references. François-Joseph Talma (1762-1826) was the leading French actor of the period. One of his most celebrated roles was than of Manlius in Manlius Capitolinus, the 1698 Roman tragedy by Antoine de La Fosse. L’Aveugle Clairvoyant was written by the prolific French playwright Marc-Antoine Legrand.

Text: Whence, it may be asked, does the society derive its light and its inspiration? From the past, from precedent, from tradition—from the great unwritten body of laws which no one has in his keeping but many have in their memory, and all in their respect. The principles on which the Théâtre Français rests are a good deal like the Common Law of England—a vaguely and inconveniently registered mass of regulations which time and occasion have welded together and from which the recurring occasion can usually manage to extract the rightful precedent. Napoleon I., who had a finger in every pie in his dominion, found time during his brief and disastrous occupation of Moscow to send down a decree remodelling and regulating the constitution of the theatre. This document has long been a dead letter, and the society abides by its older traditions. The traditions of the Comédie-Française—that is the sovereign word, and that is the charm of the place—the charm that one never ceases to feel, however often one may sit beneath the classic, dusky dome. One feels this charm with peculiar intensity as a newly arrived foreigner. The Théâtre Français has had the good fortune to be able to allow its traditions to accumulate. They have been preserved, transmitted, respected, cherished, until at last they form the very atmosphere, the vital air, of the establishment. A stranger feels their superior influence the first time he sees the great curtain go up; he feels that he is in a theatre that is not as other theatres are. It is not only better, it is different. It has a peculiar perfection—something consecrated, historical, academic. This impression is delicious, and he watches the performance in a sort of tranquil ecstasy.
Never has he seen anything so smooth and harmonious, so artistic and complete. He has heard all his life of attention to detail, and now, for the first time, he sees something that deserves the name. He sees dramatic effort refined to a point with which the English stage is unacquainted. He sees that there are no limits to possible “finish,” and that so trivial an act as taking a letter from a servant or placing one’s hat on a chair may be made a suggestive and interesting incident.He sees these things and a great many more besides, but at first he does not analyse them; he gives himself up to sympathetic contemplation. He is in an ideal and exemplary world—a world that has managed to attain all the felicities that the world we live in misses. The people do the things that we should like to do; they are gifted as we should like to be; they have mastered the accomplishments that we have had to give up. The women are not all beautiful—decidedly not, indeed—but they are graceful, agreeable, sympathetic, ladylike; they have the best manners possible and they are delightfully well dressed. They have charming musical voices and they speak with irreproachable purity and sweetness; they walk with the most elegant grace and when they sit it is a pleasure to see their attitudes. They go out and come in, they pass across the stage, they talk, and laugh, and cry, they deliver long tirades or remain statuesquely mute; they are tender or tragic, they are comic or conventional; and through it all you never observe an awkwardness, a roughness, an accident, a crude spot, a false note.
As for the men, they are not handsome either; it must be confessed, indeed, that at the present hour manly beauty is but scantily represented at the Théâtre Français. Bressant, I believe, used to be thought handsome; but Bressant has retired, and among the gentlemen of the troupe I can think of no one but M. Mounet-Sully who may be positively commended for his fine person. But M. Mounet-Sully is, from the scenic point of view, an Adonis of the first magnitude. To be handsome, however, is for an actor one of the last necessities; and these gentlemen are mostly handsome enough. They look perfectly what they are intended to look, and in cases where it is proposed that they shall seem handsome, they usually succeed. They are as well mannered and as well dressed as their fairer comrades and their voices are no less agreeable and effective. They represent gentlemen and they produce the illusion. In this endeavour they deserve even greater credit than the actresses, for in modern comedy, of which the repertory of the Théâtre Français is largely composed, they have nothing in the way of costume to help to carry it off. Half-a-dozen ugly men, in the periodic coat and trousers and stove-pipe hat, with blue chins and false moustaches, strutting before the footlights, and pretending to be interesting, romantic, pathetic, heroic, certainly play a perilous game. At every turn they suggest prosaic things and the usual liability to awkwardness is meantime increased a thousand fold. But the comedians of the Théâtre Français are never awkward, and when it is necessary they solve triumphantly the problem of being at once realistic to the eye and romantic to the imagination.
I am speaking always of one’s first impression of them. There are spots on the sun, and you discover after a while that there are little irregularities at the Théâtre Français. But the acting is so incomparably better than any that you have seen that criticism for a long time is content to lie dormant. I shall never forget how at first I was under the charm. I liked the very incommodities of the place; I am not sure that I did not find a certain mystic salubrity in the bad ventilation. The Théâtre Français, it is known, gives you a good deal for your money. The performance, which rarely ends before midnight, and sometimes transgresses it, frequently begins by seven o’clock. The first hour or two is occupied by secondary performers; but not for the world at this time would I have missed the first rising of the curtain. No dinner could be too hastily swallowed to enable me to see, for instance, Madame Nathalie in Octave Feuillet’s charming little comedy of “Le Village.” Madame Nathalie was a plain, stout old woman, who did the mothers and aunts and elderly wives; I use the past tense because she retired from the stage a year ago, leaving a most conspicuous vacancy. She was an admirable actress and a perfect mistress of laughter and tears. In “Le Village” she played an old provincial bourgeoise whose husband takes it into his head, one winter night, to start on the tour of Europe with a roving bachelor friend, who has dropped down on him at supper-time, after the lapse of years, and has gossiped him into momentary discontent with his fireside existence. My pleasure was in Madame Nathalie’s figure when she came in dressed to go out to vespers across the place. The two foolish old cronies are over their wine, talking of the beauty of the women on the Ionian coast; you hear the church-bell in the distance. It was the quiet felicity of the old lady’s dress that used to charm me; the Comédie-Française was in every fold of it. She wore a large black silk mantilla, of a peculiar cut, which looked as if she had just taken it tenderly out of some old wardrobe where it lay folded in lavender, and a large dark bonnet, adorned with handsome black silk loops and bows. Her big pale face had a softly frightened look, and in her hand she carried her neatly kept breviary. The extreme suggestiveness, and yet the taste and temperance of this costume, seemed to me inimitable; the bonnet alone, with its handsome, decent, virtuous bows, was worth coming to see. It expressed all the rest, and you saw the excellent, pious woman go pick her steps churchward among the puddles, while Jeannette, the cook, in a high white cap, marched before her in sabots with a lantern.
Such matters are trifles, but they are representative trifles, and they are not the only ones that I remember. It used to please me, when I had squeezed into my stall—the stalls at the Français are extremely uncomfortable—to remember of how great a history the large, dim salle around me could boast; how many great things had happened there; how the air was thick with associations. Even if I had never seen Rachel, it was something of a consolation to think that those very footlights had illumined her finest moments and that the echoes of her mighty voice were sleeping in that dingy dome. From this to musing upon the “traditions” of the place, of which I spoke just now, was of course but a step. How were they kept? by whom, and where? Who trims the undying lamp and guards the accumulated treasure? I never found out—by sitting in the stalls; and very soon I ceased to care to know. One may be very fond of the stage and yet care little for the green-room; just as one may be very fond of pictures and books and yet be no frequenter of studios and authors’ dens. They might pass on the torch as they would behind the scenes; so long as during my time they did not let it drop I made up my mind to be satisfied. And that one could depend upon their not letting it drop became a part of the customary comfort of Parisian life. It became certain that the “traditions” were not mere catchwords, but a most beneficent reality.
Comments: Henry James (1843-1916) was an American novelist and critic. The above is an extract from a long essay on the Théâtre-Français, or Comédie-Française, which was and remains one the leading Parisian theatres. The actors mentioned are Jean Baptiste Prosper Bressant, Jean Mounet-Sully, Zaïre-Nathalie Martel (Mademoiselle Nathalie) and Rachel Félix (Mademoiselle Rachel).

The Diary of Philipp von Neumann
Talma in Manlius Capitolinus at Comédie-Française, 1806, via Gallica
Source: E. Beresford Chancellor (ed.), The Diary of Philipp von Neumann, vol. 1 (London: Philip Allan, 1928), p. 81
Production: Antoine de la Fosse, Manlius Capitolinus, Comédie-Française, Paris, 1 November 1821
Text: Went to see Talma in Manlius, one of his best parts, but of a kind I do not care for. One cannot but praise him in it, however. He shouts less than in other pieces. What suit him better than parts in which noble, generous and chivalrou possesses one great undisputed merit, and that is the clear forcible way in which he speaks his lines; his declamation is pure, sharp and well punctuated, and consequently original. He is always master of the scene and, in short, his voice makes three-fourths of his success.
Comments: Baron Philipp von Neumann (1781-1851) was an Austrian diplomat, posted at the Austrian embassy in London during the 1810s and 1820s. His diaries provide a detailed account of the political and high society life of the time, and document his many visits to the theatre and opera. François-Joseph Talma (1762-1826) was the leading French actor of the period. One of his most celebrated roles was than of Manlius in Manlius Capitolinus, the 1698 Roman tragedy by Antoine de La Fosse.

The Journal of Sir Walter Scott
Source: Walter Scott, The Journal of Sir Walter Scott, 1825-1832 (Edinburgh: David Douglas, 1910 [orig. pub. 1890]), p. 287
Production: Émile de Bonnechose, Rosemunde, Comédie Française, Paris, 30 October 1826
Text: October 30, 1826
We went to theatre in the evening – Comédie Française the place, Rosemunde the piece. It is the composition of a young man with a promising name – Émile de Bonnechose; the story that of Fair Rosamond. There were some good situations, aroduced a very strong effect. Two or three ladies were carried out in hysterics; one next to our box was frightfully ill. A Monsieur à belles moustaches – the husband, I trust, though it is likely they were en partie fine – was extremely and affectionately assiduous. She was well worthy of the trouble, being very pretty indeed; the face beautiful, even amidst the involuntary convulsions. The afterpiece was Femme Juge et Partie, with which I was less amused than I had expected, because I found I understood the language less than I did ten or eleven years since. Well, well, I am past the age of mending.
Comments: Walter Scott (1771-1832) was a Scottish novelist and poet, whose historical novels such as Ivanhoe, Rob Roy and The Heart of Midlothian were immensely popular and influential. Émile de Bonnechose (1801–1875) was a French poet and historian. The actress was Marie-Thérèse Bourgoin (1781-1833). The comedy Femme Juge et Partie (1821) was written by Onésime Leroy.

Many Canadians, Americans and international tourists flock to Niagara Falls, Canada to see the breathtaking Canadian and American falls. Niagara Falls, Canada has more to offer than a spectacular view of some famous waterfalls; it’s home to two casinos, White Water Walk, Fallsview Indoor Water Park, the Butterfly Conservatory, Bird Kingdom, Marineland, an IMAX Theatre, the Niagara Skywheel, Hornblower cruises and Journey Behind the Falls. Visiting Niagara Falls can cost you a week’s salary if you’re not careful. Having been to Niagara Falls more times than I can count, I want to share with you my tips to save money when visiting Niagara Falls, Canada.
Don’t eat breakfast in the tourist section
Even if you’re staying at one of the four star hotels with a view of the Falls, do you really want to pay $15-$20 for one order of bacon and eggs? Get in your car and take a three minute drive up to Lundy’s Lane where you’ll find breakfast for much cheaper. I usually eat at Falls Manor Restaurant on Lundy’s Lane where you can get eggs, toast and home fries for $7.99. I have also heard that Abby’s Breakfast and Lunch at 7990 Portage Road and Easy Street Sandwiches and Treats at 8240 McLeod Road offer inexpensive, but good breakfasts.
Fallsview Casino, Niagara Falls, Canada
Park at Fallsview Casino
If you are planning to visit Fallsview Casino, you just have to show the parking attendant proof on your Fallsview Casino Players Advantage Card (obtain this free at the casino) that you gambled at least $20 at the casino and your parking will be free. Since Fallsview Casino is located just above the Horseshoe Falls, you can leave your car parked at the casino and walk down to the Niagara Parkway (it’s a 12-15 minute walk downhill) where you’ll have a spectacular view of the Falls. Go on the Hornblower Cruise or take the Journey Behind the Falls.
View of Horseshoe Falls from Tim Horton’s patio on Niagara Parkway
There is even a Tim Hortons with a patio on Niagara Parkway at Murray Street that gives you a great view of the Horseshoe Falls. This Tim’s location is one of the most inexpensive places to have a coffee and sandwich while enjoying a five-star view of the Falls.
Take the WEGO Bus
The WEGO bus system that stops at hotels, as well as all the tourist attractions. If you are going to be travelling to and from your hotel to various Niagara Falls attractions, it’s much cheaper to take the WEGO bus that will stop outside your hotel than to pay for parking each time you visit an attraction. WEGO 24-hour passes are Adult (13+) $9; Child (6-12) $6; and Child (5 and under) Free. To give you an idea how expensive parking is in Niagara Falls, if you park at the parking lot on the Niagara Parkway, you’re looking at paying at least $22 for a maximum of three hours.
There is also a Niagara Falls bus tour you can take from Toronto to Niagara Falls. which will stop at Niagara Falls attractions. Led by an experienced guide, the tour includes free time by Niagara Falls, stops at the floral clock, Niagara Parkway, hydro power stations and Queenston heights and wine tasting.
Room with 2 Queen beds at Courtyard by Marriott Niagara Falls
Book a Hotel without a Falls View
Rooms that have a view of the Falls are super pricey! In the summer, you’re looking at a minimum of $320 a night for a queen room with a view of the Falls. If you don’t mind not having a view of the Falls from your room, you will save a lot of money if you book at hotels that don’t have a view of the Falls, but are still in walking distance of all the attractions. Consider hotels on nearby Victoria Street such as the Courtyard by Marriott Niagara Falls, the Howard Johnson Hotel by Wyndham and the Days Inn by Wyndham Niagara Falls Near The Falls. If you can book a room with a small kitchen, you can save more money by picking up groceries at either No Frills or FreshCo on Lundy’s Lane.
The Hornblower Cruise at Niagara Falls
Niagara Falls Adventure Pass
If you are planning on visiting several Niagara Falls attractions, you will save a lot of money by buying the Niagara Falls Adventure Pass. The Classic Niagara Falls Adventure Pass will give you access to the Hornblower cruise, Journey Behind the Falls13+) , and White Water Walk, as well as a two-day pass on the WEGO bus.
Butterfly Conservatory in Niagara Falls, Canada
The Plus Niagara Falls Adventure Pass gives you access to all of the attractions and WEGO bus included on the Classic pass, as well as access to the Butterfly Conservatory, Whirlpool Aero Car, the Floral Showroom and the Falls Incline Railway. The Classic Adventure Pass is Adult (13+) $65; Child (6-12) $43 and 5 and under Free. The Plus Adventure Pass is Adult (13+) $90; Child (6-12) $59 and 5 and under Free.
And if you want to move permanently to Niagara Falls, Davids & DeLaat reveals that the cost of living in Niagara regions is fairly low compared to other Canadian cities and the Niagara Falls real estate market has been attractive lately. This could be a great place to live with ample opportunities available for work or play and it’s still fairly close to the GTA.

Clarice March 17, 2019 At 2:02 pm
Thank you for sharing these practical tips. We committed a grave mistake of having breakfast a the tourist section and yes, that was really expensive. Taking note of recommendations and recommendations. We’re keen to get the pass too.

As the military phase of operations in Iraq comes to an end the priority will be to provide order and humanitarian relief and to establish an interim authority, International Development Secretary Clare Short said today.
In her Commons update on the humanitarian situation and post-conflict plans, the International Development Secretary said it was "critical" to get the Oil for Food working again as quickly as possible.
Major reform and reconstruction requires a legitimate government authority, said Ms Short, and the United Nations has a "vital role to play in helping the Iraqi people to establish a broad-based and fully representative interim authority".
On the wider implications for the Middle East, Ms Short said: "The atmosphere in the wider region is currently tense and angry and the conflict has caused economic decline in neighbouring countries. Economic development in Iraq will benefit its people and the wider region but we must also remember that there is also a severe humanitarian crisis in the West Bank and Gaza Strip and that progress in the Middle East requires full implementation of the road map to the establishment of a sovereign Palestinian state alongside Israel by 2005."
The resources to provide humanitarian aid is growing and on March 28 Britain committed £65 million to a UN appeal and, along with the US, EU, France, Germany and the Netherlands, the total pot is now over $1.2 billion. The appeal called was for $2.2 billion for six months and the UN is hopeful that this will be partly funded by the Oil for Food Programme.
The total DFID commitment to support humanitarian work in Iraq is now £115 million made up of £32 million to the Red Cross, £78 million to the UN and £5 million to NGOs. Another £95 million available for further contributions in response to evolving needs. In the meantime, the Treasury has already earmarked £30 million to fund humanitarian efforts.

This novel continues not long after The Far Side of the World left off. The Surprise stops off in Barbados, then chases an American privateer almost to England. Jack Aubrey, astute at sea, but a naïf on land, is hoodwinked into causing a run on the stock market, and brought to trial. Stephen Maturin finds that his wife has left him and that his former superior in Naval Intelligence has been sidelined.
O’Brian moves effortlessly from a naval chase to the rural pleasures of Aubrey’s cottage to Regency politics, all written in a convincing eighteenth-century style. Aubrey and Maturin are emotionally true. Jack is the bluff English patriot whose unshakeable faith in English justice will be severely tested. Stephen, the complex scientist, is beleagured by betrayals both personal and professional.

The race for chatbot supremacy certainly doesn’t produce the heightened tension of the space race, but there’s definitely an unofficial international competition going on and it’s fascinating to watch.
For those keeping score, the United States is hanging onto a slim lead, China is gaining fast ground, and most of Europe is close behind.
Among industries, financial services continues to hold a commanding advantage over telecom in terms of sophistication, breadth, and usefulness due to the transactional nature of the majority of banking transactions. Enterprise, banks, and financial institutions use Chatbots to reduce cost, improve speed, and improve success rate. Chatbots also gives enterprises a change to gather valuable information and experiment with new changes.
What these companies don’t yet realize is each Chatbot conversation should be considered a “transaction” or “business deal” even if no sale comes out of it for a variety of reasons, including: 1. The company obtains data they can use; 2. A great/bad experience can influence future sale and the customer’s opinion; and 3. Customers view chatbots as an extension of your company.
Slow data processing and management can ruin someone’s experience with chatbots within seconds. Companies who are able to store, process, and analyze data quickly and efficient will usher in a new generation of chatbots that can respond seamlessly and intelligently, providing recommendations rather than just reacting.
The best news, particularly from my perspective of being deeply involved in big data, artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and analytics, is that advancements in chatbot technology continue to be arriving at a breakneck pace. This is making the accuracy and speed of chatbot technology greater all the time.
Chatbots: a technologist’s – and customer’s – dream
For those of us into such things, it’s a thrilling technology, combining the continually advancing fields of AI, ML, natural language processing (NLP), computational linguistics, big data, analytics, and bot logic and botflow making.
Obtaining data and training your chatbot to correctly process a conversation/situation is essential to be successful. Companies who are releasing chatbots early will give their product an advantage due to the amount of data they’re getting, which means enterprises should start adopting chatbots now while consumers don’t have very high expectations.
When done right, chatbots eliminate repetitive tasks – making workloads lighter, easier, and faster – while promoting greater customer satisfaction for the organizations that deploy them.
No real progress in chatbot technology can be made. However advancements in NLP, and chatbot technology advancements based on NLP, simply can’t happen without the ability to save, store, access, integrate with other customer data and analyze massive amounts of data in a cost-effective way. It is here where the technological foundation of all highly functional chatbots resides. You need a highly developed data management platform to run very complex analytics at scale and churn through a range of NLP models quickly and efficiently.
After all, it’s not very useful if it takes 12 hours to process the amount of data it takes to come up with a functional chatbot interaction. But if you can churn through that same amount of data in five minutes, then you’re more likely than not to develop a successful chatbot interaction.

Chatbots in finance
Built on processing massive amount of information, finance is an ideal industry for automation and reduction of salary expenditure, two issues chatbots addresses. However, a new study from PwC showed that two-thirds of U.S. financial services respondents surveyed said they’re limited by operations, regulations, budgets, or resources to make the investment in such innovative development.
Fintech companies such as Plum, Digit and Cleo use chatbots to drive microsaving by putting small amounts of money into saving accounts each day for their users. These companies’ chatbot is their core product, unlike legacy banks that use this function to supplement a core product.
More finance applications beyond just providing automated savings are being worked on every day, including using chatbots to detect and notify of fraudulent behavior, become a wealth management advisor, underwrite loans and insurance, and provide data analysis and advanced analytics.
Chatbots in banking
Chatbots in banking is relatively inexpensive to develop and maintain since they require less coding than standalone banking apps. Banks save the cost of developing their own channels thanks to the current growth in the popularity of messaging platforms, as well as save on data storage thanks to cloud-based systems.
Companies such as Cleo, Stripe, and Wealthfront are disrupting the market, but it’s more difficult for them to meet the demand of key bank products (such as loans) due to less restricted regulations that force their customers to spend heavily on compliance and maintain large capital cushions.
DBS Bank uses Kasisto’s KAI to allow customers to conduct transactions such as transfers and bill paying. In addition, customers can ask about their personal finances using messaging applications and through the banks platform. DBS’ digibank, India’s first digital-only bank, uses KAI to process 82 percent of customer requests, meaning digibank handles less than a fifth of all customer interactions.

Striving for the elusive 10 on a 1-to-10 scale
On a scale of 1-to-10, with 10 being a perfect state, chatbots are functioning at a 6.5 (a year ago, I’d say we were below 6.0). They’re actually very useful for a specific set of tasks such as asking for the balance in your bank account – but they’re still not very good in unstructured situations that are out of the realm of what they’ve been programmed to do.
As for the future, I think we can get to 9.0 in the next 18 to 36 months. We’re going to see very quick improvements in NLP in that short of a timespan. But then we’re going to hit a bump, because that last 10 percent will involve solving extremely challenging NLP issues such as nuances in language and style, and providing meaningful contexts in unstructured interactions.
This is all from the perspective of the English language, of course. Chatbot technology is predominantly English-centric because the amount of research and tradition in the field has been conducted in the United States. Plus, looking at the applications for NLP, English has been the de facto language – and more specifically, the global financial services industry is generally conducted in English.
So, if you’re developing a broad chatbot application, English is the obvious starting point. But we’re seeing China coming up to speed in terms of sophistication very, very quickly. They’ve made chatbot technology a national priority. The government is sponsoring it, funding it and has even exhibited control over it following an unexpected embarrassment last summer.
No secret: Chatbots will only get better and more prevalent
Ironically, even though financial services had some of the earliest successful chatbot adopters, the industry as a whole didn’t throw its support behind the technology. That’s because the more successful a project is, the less likely you are to hear about it. For obvious reasons, banks don’t want to tell other banks how to compete against them.
But, as they say, that train has already left the station. Financial services businesses understand that chatbot initiatives are important – and this is increasingly true in other sectors. They also know that achieving scale without increasing overhead is a key business component.
If they aren’t getting involved in this, they’re probably going to be at a disadvantage. Without chatbots, they won’t be able to compete. And without continual research and development into optimizing NLP, AI/ML and other emerging technologies, they won’t have the type of chatbots that will help them compete.

Have you ever glanced at an advertisement or a piece of artwork that you were simply drawn to? Chances are, you couldn't really put your finger on what attracted you to the design, but there's a good bet your designer could tell you precisely what tricks they used to lure you in.
The truth is, good design understands that your eyes are sending information to your brain at an astounding rate. But because your brain cannot possibly capture every detail, sometimes it sees the edges of a particular image and fills in the missing pieces of the puzzle based on your previous life experience. By capitalizing on this thought, you can use some clever design ideas that will gently encourage your prospects or customers to follow your lead.
Fancy Brain Tricks
A fun way to add some uniqueness to your marketing designs is to play with what the brain sees by:
Using optical illusions to trick the brain into perceiving something other than reality.
Drawing attention to specific colors and shapes that can influence what people see, such as a blue color that is calming or a red that appears angry. Human beings actually see everything in 2D -- flat, just like a drawing on a piece of paper. By using shapes and colors, you can influence what people see, drawing attention to one message over another.
Remember: What people see in your marketing will depend on their background, knowledge, and expectations, but depending on how you present an idea in your design, you can persuade people to see things just as you intend.
The Power of Human Faces
As humans, we love to relate to each other. One of the ways we do that is by seeing where others are looking. You can leverage this inclination of following the direction of someone's eyes in your marketing! Lead prospects to a call to action or specific product by focusing the eyes of a printed figure where you want the reader to look.
The key to any great design is to be continually cautious of the perception of others. Even when you design a particular piece and feel that it looks a certain way, others will have different backgrounds and experiences -- all of which can cause their brains to present them with a different interpretation of the same image.

100 Things Every Designer Needs to Know About People
by Susan M. Weinschenk, Ph. D.
We design to elicit responses from people. We want them to buy something, read more, or take action of some kind. Designing without understanding what makes people act the way they do is like exploring a new city without a map: results will be haphazard, confusing, and inefficient. This book combines real science and research with practical examples to deliver a guide every designer needs. With it you'll be able to design more intuitive and engaging work for print, websites, applications, and products that matches the way people think, work, and play.

Planners attempt to guarantee that the entire structure will remain agreeable, be it a house, loft, or business. By the by, there are as yet many rooms that can profit from a room humidifier. A model would be my family’s home. It is a two story house with a room higher up found straightforwardly on top of the connected carport. That room has never been agreeable. It is too warm in the late spring and too chilly in the colder time of year. Setting the indoor regulator to ludicrous levels will just too some extent help, and afterward the remainder of the higher up gets awkward. It is senseless to need to involve a sweeping while at the same time sitting in front of the television in June. Furthermore, you can accurately think about what the service bills are like. We took a stab at everything shy of another focal unit or significant channel changes. The air conditioner project workers we have had out all sound perfect, yet the main concern is in every case truckloads of money without assurance of accomplishment. The room is not near the indoor regulator, has a few windows, and little wind current, no doubt it is terrible.
The circumstances above are presumably the best situation for a room humidifier and use this link. This is the point at which the unit supplements a focal air framework that is not exactly measuring up. It is a typical arrangement of conditions, frequently seen in associated add-on rooms, little workplaces, and condos. A few rooms should be kept at temperatures not the same as the remainder of the structure. The most widely recognized illustration of this is the PC server room. Servers run continually and put out a ton of intensity, particularly when there are a few together. They are in many cases kept in a little room, which thus gets hot. Heat is terrible for servers. A virus room helps them work better and drags out their life expectancy. On the off chance that a structure is tolerated an arranged server room, a committed focal unit is frequently included only for that room, despite the fact that it is little.
Yet, when a room is switched over completely to a server room, in the event that it as of now has focal stock, it is expensive and typically pointless to add a committed focal unit. A convenient humidifier can get the temperature down to OK levels at much lower cost, and intrinsically adds an indoor regulator to the server room. A room not associated with focal air might in any case be a decent circumstance for a room humidifier, yet the conditions ought to be viewed as significantly more cautiously. Indeed, even things like shut carports and trailers might be helped relying upon the points of interest. These purposes as a rule require a model with more power than would be typical for the room size. Positively, there are conditions where a room humidifier is not probably going to be satisfactory. Most are not intended to be utilized where existing temperatures in the room are above around 86 degrees.

With the development of market economy, cabinets are the key to enhancing brand competitiveness
by：Hench Hardware 2021-08-16
With the development and changes of the market economy, consumers are increasingly influenced by branded products. Brand competition has become an important field of intentional competition for cabinet companies. Brands bring inestimable economic wealth to companies, and brand awareness has become one of the intangible wealth of cabinet companies. With the increase of brand competitiveness, how to improve the brand competitiveness of cabinet companies has become a hot topic in the research of cabinet companies.
Precise Brand Positioning
Any enterprise needs to have a clear positioning for its survival and development, because even if it has a positioning, if it is not clear, it may collapse. Obviously, letting consumers distinguish between the better and the worse will become the top priority for all cabinet companies. The positioning of the cabinet brand will be elevated to an unprecedented height. At this time, the brand's years of building effectiveness began to become prominent. Without the honors authorized by the state, the cabinet companies with excellent product quality, stable old customer groups, and single product categories and a certain market reputation have unique advantages.
product portfolio sales adapt to market changes
Due to changes in market demand and competition, each item in the cabinet product portfolio will inevitably undergo differentiation under the changing market environment. Therefore, cabinet companies need to constantly analyze the various items in the product portfolio, according to the market environment and resource changes, timely increase the products that should be developed and eliminate the products that should be withdrawn, so as to form the best product that enables the company to maximize profits. Combination to achieve a dynamic balance of product portfolio.
is indispensable for independent innovation
If an enterprise wants brand competitiveness, it must improve its independent innovation ability. The development of new products is the carrier of the interrelationship and interaction between enterprise innovation ability and brand competitiveness. After the initial stage of hard work, small and medium-sized cabinet companies may already have a place in the market. Capital, technology, human resources and other resources have a certain foundation. But at this time, small and medium-sized cabinet companies should not be satisfied with the success of early imitating and learning. The ultimate goal of learning and imitating is to innovate.
Service quality is an important guarantee
For how to improve the quality of after-sales service of cabinet companies, establishing a complete service system is an important way. If cabinet dealers can use the advantages of online communication on the e-commerce platform, establish a customer service desk to understand all levels, regions, and groups of people. Expanding multi-faceted channels will not only increase brand awareness and increase business volume to improve performance, but also the after-sales service system of physical cabinet stores will be more complete, and the reputation of the cabinet brand will also be further improved. Regardless of whether it is e-commerce or traditional channels, no matter what period, improving the quality of products and services is very important for cabinet companies. Good products will improve the brand competitiveness of enterprises, and good services will win the trust and reputation of consumers.
To sum up, the brand competitiveness of cabinet companies is affected by many factors, and companies need to start from many aspects to improve their brand competitiveness. Product positioning, product portfolio, independent innovation capabilities and service quality guarantees are to improve corporate brand competition The basic point of strength, in order to obtain better brand competitiveness, cabinet companies still need to work hard from the details to achieve the desired effect.

Moving is one of life’s most stressful events – endless packing, arranging, labeling and handling inventory. At our aim is to assist you in making your move just a little bit easier with the Internet’s quickest and most secure change of address service. Just think, no more wasting valuable time in long lines at the Andrew Post Office to change your address!
Our easy to use service comprises rapid and secure USPS change of address as well as a host of additional perks and benefits!
One-page online form expedites the filing process
We help you steer clear of common mistakes when changing your address online
Get in touch with important businesses in addition to the U.S. Post Office
Minimize unnecessary junk mail at your new residence
National do-not-call list registration to help safeguard your privacy and block uninvited phone calls
Live phone support 9AM to 8PM (EST) Monday through Sunday to help answer any questions you have
Not all change of address services are created equally!
In contrast to many of our competitors who merely aid you in changing your address, we are committed to assisting you in making the moving process as smooth as possible. Our host of perks and benefits are intended to eliminate worry and help you enjoy being a new homeowner as quickly as possible!
You can, of course, research, coordinate, and submit your own filing with the United States Postal Service (USPS) for a fee. That being said, we’re sure you’ll enjoy the many benefits we offer which are not available from the Andrew U.S. Post Office.
Ready to get started? Just enter your information below and your mail will get instantly sent to your new location when you move!
Why is a change of address so critical?
Customer Identification Program (CIP)
Banks are obligated to confirm the identity of people desiring to carry out financial transactions with them. A bank can only open an account or give you a credit card after they’ve validated your identity.
They do that primarily through address verification. Accordingly, if you have moved, it is imperative to update your address so that it does not hinder your ability to open and hold bank accounts or credit cards.
Preventing Identity Theft
Thieves take advantage of people who don’t update their address with their creditors in a prompt manner. This affords them the opportunity to open accounts in your name, capture your personal information, and receive deliveries of products purchased on your line of credit.
After you move we recommend you secure a free yearly copy of your credit report from the three major credit bureaus to make sure your address has been updated and no new accounts have been opened without your approval.
Updating Driver’s License
Similarly, Edwards mandates drivers to update their address with the government within a specific amount of time (normally between 30 and 90 days) from the date of moving. Aside from being stipulated by law, it gives government agencies and creditors notice of your current address as well.
Once more, this is important as it relates to the CIP because your driver’s license information could be used to substantiate your identity. For instance, if the address on your credit card application is different from the address listed on your driver’s license and/or your credit report, a creditor may be incapable of confirming your identity or approving a credit card for you.
APPLY NOW
Change Of Address: Temporary vs. Permanent
TEMPORARY CHANGE: A Temporary Change of Address service routes mail from your current address to a new residence for a short amount of time. Throughout this period, if you conclude you want to use your new mailing address for a longer span of time, you have to manually update senders as you see mail with a yellow forwarding label arrive at your residence.
PERMANENT CHANGE: A Permanent Change of Address signals USPS to reroute your mail permanently. If you are relocating and aren’t planning to relocate again for a period of time, then this may very well be your best option. However, it’s important to note that this choice comes with some inconveniences.
Upon filing a Permanent Change of Address, your information is stored in the National Change of Address database. As your mail is forwarded, the NCOA system reports to banks and other organizations of your new location. This system will register as if you have relocated, and if your new address resides in a different state, the IRS may get in touch with you as well.
The NCOA database saves your new data for a period of four years. If you opt to move back to the original address or receive mail there, you won’t be able to cancel this Change of Address service by virtue of the USPS system. Even if you do try to cancel your order, the NCOA system will repeal your cancellation request and will continue to forward your mail until the original request ends.

When you use you are getting the most rapid and efficient address changing service available.

Bonus! 9 Indispensable Moving Tips
Relocation doesn’t have to be a synonym for stress!
Research has shown that moving is one of life’s most stressful events. But, it doesn’t have to be that way. If relocation is coordinated correctly and methodically, it can be seamless and stress-free. Take a long, deep breath, begin planning and leave all worry behind.
Begin planning relocation in advance
Relocation is a big undertaking. It takes a lot of time to pick and move your whole life (Just think of everything you’ve collected over the years!) This is why it is essential to start preparing activities well in advance. If you fail to give yourself enough time, you will have to hurry which can lead to forgetting a number of vital things that have to be accomplished – and this can result in a host of undesirable consequences. Remember to give yourself time; studies show that you need at minimum one month before the actual moving day to plan everything correctly.
Make a list of activities to be done
Organization requires that you plan activities that need to be executed to accomplish the task. We recommend writing down everything on a sheet of paper. Detail each and every step of the moving process, each separate activity that needs to be accomplished. Don’t leave anything out!
Select a method of relocation – DIY or hire a professional
It is crucial to think about the “volume” of your relocation (i.e. do you have just a handful of things, such as a few chairs, desks and kitchen appliances or are you moving a family of 7?) You’ll also want to consider how fragile and expensive the items you wish to be relocated are. These answers will determine whether you need assistance from just family and friends or if you’ll need to hire professionals to safely do relocation for you.
Agreeing on details of relocation with an agency
If you choose to move with the aid of professionals, you need to agree on each and every detail with the agency and you’ll have to do it ahead of time. Once more, coming to an agreement in advance is a priority – agencies are swamped during the summer and most don’t work during the holiday season. And in order to offer you a quote for their services, they will need various pieces of information: how many items you have, the distance you are relocating to, etc.
Acquiring packing material and packing
Grab a bunch of boxes and packing material (duct tape, foil, bubble wrap, etc.) and begin packing. Don’t forget that boxes shouldn’t weigh more than 50 lbs. each and that you should label each one so that movers know where to place them in your new house. This will make unpacking much quicker!
It’s also important to keep in mind that packing with small supplies when you work can be frustrating; they could very easily become obscured by boxes and other belongings in the room after you set them down.
Want a simple solution? Grab a tool bag or apron and pack it with labels, Sharpies, tape, and other minute, vital things that are required for packing. This prohibits them from getting dispersed and minimizes the lost time it takes to constantly look for them.
Throw out things you don’t need in your new home
Packing because of relocation is an opportune time to throw away things you don’t need. (Items that aren’t sentimental in nature and that you don’t use any longer. We recommend saving them or giving them away to friends and/or family.
Unpacking in your new house
Don’t unpack inessential items right off the bat. Begin unpacking key items: bed and bedding, cutlery for the kitchen, etc. Labels placed on boxes will assist you in easily getting to these household staples. Don’t feel like you have to unpack each and every item as soon as possible – it is not realistic unless you have moved only a backpack of shirts and pants.
Rejoice – you have moved successfully!
Throw a housewarming party for friends and family to celebrate your successful relocation and start of a new phase of your life!

Thinking about starting your family with the help of an egg donor and a gestational carrier? We can help!
For over 10 years, Family Formers has helped individuals and couples achieve their dream of having their own children. You can expect a hands-on approach from both Teresa and Leila from the moment you first contact Family Formers until you go home with your baby. We also have an outstanding network of previous Intended Parents that will be happy to provide guidance and support during your journey into parenthood.
The Process
Importance Of Choosing
An Egg Donor
We pride ourselves in having one of the best egg donor programs in Florida. By being highly selective and limiting our egg donor program to only the highest quality egg donors, we are able to provide the LGBTQ+ community with excellent donors that can be used by both partners in a male couple. Most male couples want a child with their own DNA and to achieve this the egg donor that they choose must produce a large quantity of mature eggs for split fertilization. We have had great success matching our male couples with successful experienced donors achieving on average 4-6 embryos each for transfer.
Every male client that has allowed Family Formers to be a part of their journey is currently raising their baby or babies.

The Unofficial Bridgerton Musical won the Grammy for Best Musical Theater Album last night, marking the Recording Academy’s first win for a project that debuted on TikTok.
Emily Bear and Abigail Barlow created songs inspired by the hit Netflix series Bridgerton, racking up millions of views on TikTok since early 2021. Writing from the perspective of the show’s characters, Bear and Barlow used TikTok to solicit suggestions, interact with fans, and share the songwriting process with viewers. . The duo released songs as they were completed and eventually recorded and released a 15-song album in September. Netflix did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
“A year ago when I asked the internet, ‘What if Bridgerton was a musical? I couldn’t have imagined we would be holding a Grammy in our hands,” Barlow said in his acceptance speech. “We want to thank everyone online who has seen us create this album from scratch. We share this with you.
Other nominees in the category were Andrew Lloyd Webber CinderellaBurt Bacharach and Steven Sater some loversoff broadway North Country Girl, Les Miserables: The Staged Concertand Stephen Schwartz Snapshots.
Bear and Barlow’s win is just another example of how viral success on TikTok can translate into more traditional off-platform success for creators, even without an established mainstream presence. The company reported that 430 songs hit 1 billion views last year – more than three times as many as in 2020 – with 175 viral songs charting on the Billboard Hot 100.

We will examine the attributes of an animal host which will permit its survival in a sea of microorganisms and parasites. This resistance to disease is due to a complex interaction of cells and chemicals that make up the tissues and fluids of the host. Dispite these elaborate defenses, most mammals are still susceptible to infectious organisms which are a part of the host's own normal flora, the normal flora of other animals, or a part of the environment. Bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and other disease agents possess a variety of techniques for overwhelming the physical and chemical barriers that protect the host, thus allowing the onset of disease.
In this course you will examine the balance between the host's defenses and the microorganism's virulence factors which can shift; resulting in periods where the animal experiences good health on one hand and diseased states on the other hand when a particular organism has been able to tip the balance in its favor. We will learn about the innate and acquired forms of immunity that are typically found in higher animals and then we will look at how selected bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites can cause diseases in humans.
In order to be able to respond to a particular disease agent, we must know some of its characteristics. It will be important to know how it is transmitted to the host as well as where it usually enters the body. You will need to discover how it escapes from a diseased individual and also if there are specific factors associated with the agent which might be neutralized resulting in a cure or the prevention of disease.
The text will serve as a resource for uncovering some of the relationships that exist between host and parasite but we will not depend only on it as a source of information. During the semester, I will assign mini projects to be done by using library and Internet resources, thus we will be able to obtain current information about a specific topic.
I will have you research a particular topic of your choice (with some limitations) and have you give a presentation to the class. This project will allow you to dig deeper into an area of medical microbiology that is not possible by limiting ourselves to class lectures as a means for learning.
Grading
There will be four, one hour exams @ 100 pts each: 400pts
Quizzes will be: 100pts
Laboratory reports: 100pts
Laboratory practical: 50pts
The laboratory reports will be done in a scientific format with a title page, introduction, materials and methods, results, and discussion. (Laboratory information will be included on the one hour exams.)

When the Lotus Esprit burst onto the scene in October 1975, it had a similar effect on fans of the marque as that fateful storm had on the gardens of countless homeowners in 1987.
Designed as the flagship of a triumvirate of cars, which also included the Elite and Éclat and was to shed Lotus of its long-held ‘kit car’ image, the Esprit became one of the most iconic British sports cars of the 1970s.
Lotus Esprit: a very British supercar
Based on a design penned by Giorgetto Giugiaro of Ital Design, which we’d seen three years before at the Geneva Motor Show, the mid-engined Esprit was a dramatic wedge-shaped masterpiece. Its styling was equally as controversial as anything produced by Lamborghini or Ferrari at the time, and the only thing the Esprit was missing to deny it true stardom was a V8 or V12 under its engine cover.
However, as we were still reeling from the effects of the 1973/74 Energy Crisis, the prospect of a 140mph ‘supercar’ that could return up to 30mpg was no bad thing at all. Despite these unpromising beginnings, greatness would head Hethel’s way. The Esprit became Lotus’s first road-car to rival those of its long-time F1 rival, Ferrari. The screaming sports car became a supercar and, once the Esprit Turbo had first made its mark in 1980, Lotus’s claim to be a quality carmaker started to ring more true.
Lotus continues tolin Chapman decided the only way the small company would survive — let alone prosper — was to move upmarket, for he knew that expensive cars were less susceptible to economic uncertainties than cheap ones.
How to reinvent Lotus – takea Porsche or Ferrari. It was part pragmatism, part pride, and the consequence was that the type of car on which Lotus’s reputation had rested for 15 years was ditched. Out went the Elan, out went the Europa. Instead of chasing people who aspired to a Porsche but couldn’t afford one, Lotus went after people who could.
The young, fast driving set which had formed the majority of Elan/Europa owners was ignored, and older, wealthier buyers were sought. The first stage was the four-seater Elite, launched in 1974. Thanks to its hefty price and the Energy Crisis, the Elite was never a great showroom success.
The company’s difficulties were made worse by the fact that, at that point, Lotus was only a one-product company, awaiting the launch of the Esprit, and the poor sales forced a decision to slash both production and workforce (the latter down from 830 in early 1974 to less than 400 in 1975). The changeover from being the maker of cheap sports cars to makers of prestige cars was never going to be easy but in reality it was more difficult than Chapman ever imagined.
Lotus Europa Special wasn’t upmarket enough for Colin Chapman by the early 1970s
He knew the Esprit would help. The car was to be a spiritual successor to the Europa Twin-Cam, even though both its price and equipment levels were to be higher, but this was because the Esprit was really intended to be the car to lift Lotus into the Ferrari league. Codenamed M70, the mid-engined sports car had first featured in Lotus’s long range plans drawn up in 1970.
The idea was to use as many parts from the yet-to-be-released Elite as possible, including the 16-valve four-cylinder engine then being developed, and a futuristic wedge-shaped body. Chapman must have been wondering who was the best person to design that futuristic body for the M70 when, at the 1971 Geneva Motor Show, he was approached by Giorgetto Giugiaro.
The master Italian stylist told Chapman that he wanted to do a showcar design based on a Lotus. With a background that included work for Bertone and Ghia — frequently on two-seater supercars — Giugiaro’s qualifications were beyond dispute. Chapman agreed, and the Esprit’s modern but simple lines took form.
Lotus Esprit design sketch by Giorgetto Giugiaro
The original Lotus Esprit concept by Giugiaro now realised as a full-sized model, which became known as ‘the silver car’ – a definitive 1970s supercar…
A cut and shut Europa chassis of intended M70 dimensions was delivered to Giugiaro’s Turin Design Studio to be clothed and, in November 1972, a prototype (above) was shown to the world at the Turin Show, a very angular wedge-shaped design with an extraordinarily steeply raked windscreen. Lotus was enthusiastic about the shape, but also bemused by what would be its inherent production problems.
The Esprit theme had been set, but the productionising of the car had yet to begin. Chapman was also suspicious of the car’s aerodynamics, and soon asked for a second prototype to be made complete with interior and more resolved aerodynamics. He wanted a car capable of being produced in glassfibre (in line with Lotus tradition) rather than one merely to be ogled at.
The second prototype called IDGG 01 and known internally as ‘the red car’ would be built in glassfibre, the first time Giugiaro had worked with this material. Long hours and late nights followed. Some of the important Lotus executives moved to Turin to work close to Giugiaro, including stylist Oliver Winterbottom, who supervised the construction of the Esprit and who also designed the 1974 Elite. Others, including Chapman and Mike Kimberley (later to become Chief Engineer and Managing Director), made frequent private aircraft flights from Norfolk to Italy.
Lotus Esprit second prototype, known as ‘the red car’, IDGG-01 as built by Ital Design, had many styling differences over the original Giugiaro show car
Giugiaro’s work is improved by the Brits
A quarter-scale model of the original Giugiaro prototype was made and then taken to the MIRA wind tunnel in England. Tests there confirmed what Chapman had suspected – there were bad lift problems, which were undesirable in a high-speed sports car. The changes during this period of development included decreasing the rake of the windscreen by three degrees to comply with US rollover strength legislation and reducing the size of the rear opening door, which had been a full-length hatchback on early designs.
There were also numerous subtle styling differences, both to help Lotus build the body and to enable the car to penetrate the air with less drag and lift. The second prototype (below) was finished in 1973.
Running gear – tried and tested (elsewhere)
The Jensen Healey would end up being something of a test bed for Lotus’ new engine
Two years before the Esprit was due to be launched, the new four-cylinder 16-valve engine intended for it made was introduced. The Type 907 engine had been designed by former BRM Engineer Tony Rudd, who had joined Lotus in 1969. This engine produced 140bhp from 1973cc in standard form, and was the first all-Lotus-designed production power unit.
Surprisingly, it had been used first in the Jensen-Healey sports car, a move which cynics said allowed the bugs to be ironed out before it found its way under the bonnet of a Lotus. The high-revving and powerful all-alloy unit soon earned a reputation for a terrible thirst for oil – a trait that went down well neither with Jensen nor its customers – and it took Lotus some time to sort out this problem.
Furthermore, the engine was inordinately harsh at high revs, the result of an inadequately stiff crankcase, and Lotus also had to do a lot of work on the motor’s emission levels to make it acceptable in America, Japan and Australia.
Looking to the French for a gearbox
The Citroën SM would end up being the donor car for the Lotus’ transmission issues
The Engineers had always anticipated that one of the most difficult problems with its new mid-engined car would be where to locate the rear-mounted transaxle. Lotus found an unlikely saviour: Citroën was about to discontinue production of its magnificent SM flagship, but was able to guarantee long-term supplies of its five-speed gearbox to Lotus.
Fitting the transaxle was not an easy task – it was mated to the engine via a Lotus-designed bellhousing which joined the centre-line of the differential. Selection was via a mix of rods and cables, which ‘broke every engineering law’ according to one Lotus Engineer. Nevertheless, it worked.
One of the priorities had been to give the Esprit a good gearchange, particularly after the atrocious cog-selection problems which had blighted the Europa fitted with its Renault gearbox. With the Citroën SM gearbox and Lotus bellhousing, the company managed it.
Working against an impossible deadline
In between trying to get the new Elite ready for production and curing the problems inherent with the 16-valve engine, Lotus toiled to get the Esprit developed for Chapman’s Christmas deadline. Tony Rudd took overall responsibility, including specific engine and suspension work, Colin Spooner was responsible for the chassis and body and his brother Brian concentrated on adapting the Citroën gearbox.
On Christmas Eve, one day ahead of the deadline, the team had a car to show the boss, although it was not a runner. The Esprit prototype’s first real test in front of the boss was early in 1975, when Tony Rudd surprised Chapman by arriving to collect him in it at Heathrow Airport, after the first Grand Prix of the year. Chapman drove it part of the way back to Hethel before a hub carrier broke.
By early 1975, it really had to be a success: the Elan and Europa had ceased production and Lotus’ only model was the new Elite, which was selling just 20-25 cars per month. This would prove to be just enough to see Lotus through to the launch of the new Esprit at the Paris Motor Show in 1975. That was when, according to Motor Sport magazine, ‘the most exciting, attractive, series-production British sports car since the Jaguar E-type‘ was unveiled.
Lotus Esprit – state of the art in 1976
Lotus Esprit cutaway drawing
The Lotus twin-cam 2.0-litre engine, mounted longitudinally at 45 degrees to the horizontal, now developed 155bhp at 6580rpm in the Series 1 Esprit, and 140lb ft of torque at 4800rpm, breathing through twin Dellorto carburettors. The car’s glassfibre reinforced plastic body was made in two halves and then bonded together at the prominent waistline, riding on a steel backbone tubular frame, partly sheet-braced.
The front suspension used Vauxhall Cavalier Mk1 double wishbones with integrated coil spring/damper units, and a Cavalier anti-roll bar. Cavalier front discs were also borrowed, and the steering rack was from the Elite.
At the back, the suspension was simple, unusual and flawed. The Esprit used its fixed-length driveshafts to form what was, in effect, its upper suspension links (Elite driveshafts and hubs were used). There were also box-framed trailing arms, a lower lateral link and integral coil spring/damper units. The rear discs were inboard.
Interior and quality disappointments
The Lotus Esprit Series I interior looked good, but was lacking in quality
Inside, the Esprit was a mixture of good news and bad. The dash consisted of a futuristic wraparound facia which contained the main gauges (which were hard to read) and the switchgear while, in between this and the driver, was a cheap plastic two-spoke steering wheel.
The interior ventilation was terrible and rear three-quarter vision was almost non-existent, but all these problems notwithstanding, the Esprit received a great reception at its world debut and, when it went on sale in June 1976, it looked like Lotus had built a winner. Its success came not a moment too soon.
Series 2 only partially fixes the problems
Lotus Esprit Series 2
The Series 1 was in production for two years before being superseded by the Series 2 in May 1978. Some of the S1 problems were solved with the new S2; many were not. Lotus already knew its rear suspension layout was inadequate for a car of this performance (even though it had worked well on the Elite), and knew that the chassis had to be made stiffer. It reworked neither, however, for the S2.
What they did do was improve the 16-valve engine and give it more mid-range pull (an improvement effected on some late S1 models, too) and better economy. New alloy wheels, made specially for Lotus by the Italian makers Speedline, replaced the off-the-shelf Wolfrace wheels which had looked so prosaic on the S1. A front wraparound spoiler was used, as were wider Rover SD1 tail lamps (subsequently used on all Lotuses).
The Veglia instruments were replaced by Smiths ones, and the standard of interior trim was massively improved. Mind you, the trim should have been revised, for with the launch of the S2, the price of the Esprit had rocketed to £11,124. The one-time kit car maker was now selling, truly, a Porsche-priced car, but it still wasn’t building its cars as well as Porsche.
The S1 had had many teething problems, and Tony Rudd later said, ‘I reckon we solved 90% of the problems before manufacture, but there were others who reckoned I solved 10% and they did the rest trying to put it into production.’
Lotus Esprit Turbo breezes in
Lotus Esprit Essex Turbo
In 1980, the Esprit Turbo was launched in limited edition Essex Turbo form. It marked the long-awaited turning point for Lotus. At last, here was a car that was potentially good enough to take on – and beat – a Ferrari 308 GTB. The high-speed Esprit variant had originally been scheduled to have a V8 engine, rather than a turbo four-cylinder. The chassis engine cradle was given room for an engine with two banks of four cylinders. Nonetheless, Powertrain Engineering Manager Graham Atkin favoured the idea of a turbo four, largely on the grounds of cost, and his voice eventually won through.
Such engines were starting to gain favour then thanks to the work of companies like Porsche and Saab. In typical Lotus fashion, the turbo transformation was clever. The design of the Esprit Turbo involved a massive upgrade to the S2 specification. To make it look more aggressive and increase the downforce, Giugiaro was asked to design a new bodykit with aerodynamic upgrades, and replied by designing wraparound bumpers, large front and rear spoilers and deep skirts under the door sills.
The changes to the engine were far more extensive. A longer-stroke crankshaft increased its capacity from 1973cc to 2174cc and a Garrett AiResearch T3 turbo force-fed pressurised air into the two twin-barrel Dellorto carburettors. The compression ratio was lowered and the engine was strengthened to take the greater internal pressures. The power went up by 35% to 210bhp at 6500rpm, and torque rose by 43% to 200lb ft at 4000-4500rpm. The clutch diameter was increased by an inch (2.4 cm), although the gearbox and final drive remained unchanged.
Chassis improvements revolutionise the Turbo
The chassis and suspension were also extensively altered. The chassis was new with Lotus-designed and built upper wishbone/lower transverse link front suspension (replacing the GM-derived original) attached to a new front box section. At the rear, where there had always been a handling problem on the S1 and S2, short top suspension links were added to take the loads imposed on the driveshafts. The trouble with the old system had been that, to a large extent, the engine mounts’ compliance had determined the handling.
If good roadholding was to be maintained the result was excessive engine noise and vibration. The new chassis also had 50% better torsional rigidity than the S1/S2, which also helped to explain the more faithful handling of the Turbo when compared with earlier models.
Wider 60-profile tyres were fitted front and rear, the interior was leather-trimmed, air conditioning was standard and a better steering wheel was fitted. Top speed was 152mph compared with the S2’s 135mph, with 0-60mph in 5.5 seconds.
Turbo goes mainstream and S3 is launched
Lotus Esprit Series 3 (1981)
In April 1981 the mechanically identical but less luxuriously equipped series production Esprit Turbo was launched to replace the colourfully adorned Essex Turbo version. At less than £17,000 – compared with £21,000 for the Essex – it was a far more sensibly priced.
Numerous road tests soon verified that the Turbo was one of Europe’s most competent supercars. Its beautifully-engineered turbocharged engine gave strong performance, it had razor-sharp handling and prodigious roadholding, although it still didn’t have the ultimate badge kudos of its Porsche and Ferrari rivals, but as a driver’s car, it probably had the measure of the 308GTBi, which had its wings clipped in 1981 due to a power drop that marked the arrival of fuel injection.
The Esprit Turbo’s upgrades also helped produce a better naturally-aspirated car. First, as the Series 2.2, which was launched not long after the Turbo in April 1980, and then as the altogether more superior S3 in 1981, which received all of the chassis and suspension upgrades from the Turbo. The exterior was tidied up over the S2.2, with none of its obtrusive matt black paint finish, and the quality control was noticeably improved.
Lotus’ standards steadily improved throughout the 1980s, while the under-the-skin development meant that dynamics seriously moved on, too. It was all looking good for Lotus and the Esprit especially as it sauntered through 1981 and into 1982.
Back to the future
The stunning Lotus Etna from 1984 led the way to the Peter Stevens Esprit redesign three years later…
Colin Chapman, Lotus founder and inspirational driving force behind the company, suddenly died in December 1982. The company was already beginning to struggle at that point. It had been involved in the collapse of the DeLorean DMC-12 project, and finances weren’t on their strongest footing. New ownership for the firm was split between Chapman’s family, investors British Car Auctions (BCA) which took the controlling stake, and Toyota. In 1984, JCB then took an 11% stake, followed by Toyota upping its share to 20% – with the company being run ably by long-time Lotus man, Mike Kimberley.
Development on ambitious projects such as a new-generation Elan (Project M100), a V8-engined Esprit (Project M71) and productionisation of the glorious Giugiaro-penned Etna prototype (above) of 1984 were a luxury the company couldn’t afford at the time.
That left further development of the Esprit as the only viable option for the medium term and, although it was clear that chassis dynamics were still pretty much beyond reproach, the styling – no matter how devastating back in 1975 – needed a serious update. After three years of uncertainty, General Motors bought out Lotus in January 1986 – meaning Project M100 was back on line, and a thoroughly updated Esprit (known as Project X180) could happen more quickly.
Lotus styling entrusted to Peter Stevens
Peter Stevens, a long-established industry Designer (who once self-deprecatingly owned up to being responsible for the headlamp design of the Ford Capri II), was deeply involved in the Lotus Design Studio at the time. Having already seen Oliver Winterbottom turn the Eclat into the Excel, Peter Stevens’ team then turned its attention to the Esprit – with the initial design brief being to keep costs down while giving the car a whole new look.
The brief for the re-skin was passed to Stevens – and preliminary sketches had been produced in October 1985. The project was kept very much on the sidelines, and most of Lotus’ senior personnel only found out about the new Esprit when the glass fibre mock-up was presented to them in February 1986, just after the GM takeover.
Significantly changed styling for the 1987 Esprit…
Julian Thomson (much later the stylist of the Range Rover Evoque and Design Director of Jaguar from July 2019), also worked on the original car, smoothing off the sharp edges of the original wedge, and heralding in a more organic look. The rear end now featured flying buttresses to replace the previously tailgated rear, and the rest of the car was treated to wrap around moulded bumpers and a more curvaceous windscreen glass. Rearwards visibility was not only improved by the revised rear window arrangement, but also because of the fitment of those elegant-looking Citroën CX door mirrors (Stevens would use them again later on more than one occasion).
Fewer changes underneath
Under the skin, the chassis set-up remained unchanged. The stiffer bodyshell meant suspension could be made more compliant and uprated brakes and gearbox (finally seeing the end of the Citroën SM five-speeder used since launch) completed the engineering story.
The turbocharged engine received a further 5bhp, boosting power to 215bhp – and performance was perked up. With a top speed knocking on the door of 160mph, and a 0-60mph time of just over five seconds, the Lotus Esprit Turbo was more than a match for rivals from Porsche and Ferrari. The four-cylinder engine may well have sounded a little ordinary in comparison to its symphonic rivals, but there was no mistaking the results…
Inside, the dashboard remained largely unchanged – save for a few more tweaks, and the addition of Austin Maestro switchgear. Stevens wanted more, of course, and had it been up to the accountants, the original interior would have been carried over unchanged.
Supercar transformation
The new look went down a treat with buyers – as well as critics in the press – proving that Lotus was still adept at producing sports cars with panache and added value.
However, as the ’90s beckoned, it was clear that turbocharged 16-valve engine were no longer the preserve of the exotic, and plenty of rivals were churning out mass-produced alternatives with similar amounts of power, at a lower cost. The V8 idea never really went away, but with the development team now clearly focusing on the upcoming front-wheel-drive Elan, this was not going to happen for some time to come. What was needed, therefore, was further expansion of the slant-four engine.
New pistons, induction system, a charge air-cooler, direct ignition system and new Delco engine management were added, breathing life into the existing four-cylinder power unit – which its maker claimed to be the most powerful 16-valve engine in the world. This bevy of changes upped the power output to a highly impressive 264bhp – and it seemed fitting to give the new supercar slayer from Lotus the ‘SE’ tag (below).
The charge-cooled SE arrives
Lotus Esprit Turbo SE
Despite the fact that previous generations of Esprit had supercar looks and go, they remained in the First Division, rather than the Premier League. The introduction of the Turbo SE meant the Esprit could now scorch from 0-60mph in 4.7 seconds and crack 160mph with ease. Nothing at that price point came close in terms of sheer unadulterated driving pleasure – here was a car built for one thing only: to get from A to B via C as quickly as possible…
In 1991, the non-turbo version was dropped from the range – its appeal had been rapidly waning, anyway – and this left the company to concentrate on building ever-quicker and more focused versions of the Esprit. Fans would not be disappointed.
Despite being in the autumn of its life, the Esprit’s day was a long way from being over during the 1990s. In 1993, the S4-series was launched (although it should have logically been called the S5). The exterior styling received the subtlest of tweaks – because, let’s face it, there was little wrong with the Peter Stevens makeover. You’d need to look closely for the re-profiled bumpers and smaller spoiler on the outside – although another giveaway was the replacement of those Marina door handles with those from the Vauxhall Cavalier Mk3.
Interior came in for a lot of criticism in later years…
The interior was made-over more radically than usual – receiving a fair portion of chunky Vauxhall-derived switchgear as well as a re-profiled instrument binnacle. More importantly, for the first time ever in an Esprit, power steering was fitted, delivering more agility through the improved suspension set-up.
The competitive list price and sweet exterior styling allowed the Esprit to punch above its weight, although they were nothing compared with the thrilling dynamics and performance of the car. Yes, the cracks were beginning to show in interior department, but if you were focused purely on excitement, few experiences came close to that of wringing the neck of an Esprit on a racing circuit.
Despite the Esprit’s new lease of life, Lotus found itself in the wars again thanks to parent company General Motors’ financial traumas of the early Nineties and that saw Lotus fall into the hands of an unexpected new owner – Bugatti. Italian investor Romano Artioli, had bought the rights to the defunct French marque in 1990, and turned it into a short-lived supercar builder (before Volkswagen-Audi took over and did the job more effectively – and pointlessly), and took on Lotus as well on the back of the company’s legendary research and development capability.
That saw a fresh injection of cash that would ultimately lead to the creation and introduction of the Elise – and the V8-powered Esprit.
And to the end…
Bugatti didn’t stay on board long – by 1996, it was bankrupt, and Lotus had been sold to the Malaysian company, Proton. The V8, unveiled at that year’s Geneva Motor Show, was the Italian company’s parting gift for the Esprit range, and became a final, late flowering of the timeless design.
The 3.5-litre twin-turbo V8 produced 350bhp, delivered a 0-60mph time of 4.5 seconds and a top speed of 171mph – performance and handling were typically brilliant, although the cabin architecture was now becoming something of an unfunny joke. Its styling still had that wow factor that set the Esprit apart as a true supercar – and now with an engine to match there was nothing to stop it from achieving immortality.
It was in this form that the Esprit pretty much finished out its days – production of the Elise and the Vauxhall VX220 was keeping Lotus busy, and the Esprit became very much a fringe activity for the company. A couple of years later, the V8 model range was expanded to incorporate GT and SE specifications – and, a year later, the most exclusive model of them all, the Sport 350, was unveiled. So called because it developed a cool 350bhp, only the very fastest cars available could see it off…
In 2002, the Esprit received its final facelift, gaining new rear lights and a few other cosmetic adjustments – it was in this form that the car finally went out of production in 2004, on the eve of its 30th birthday. It truly was a classic you could buy new.
Although the introduction of the Peter Stevens-designed Esprit had been a major landmark in the car’s long life, it’s sometimes hard to believe that it was only a third of a way through the production cycle of this iconic sports car. Although most classic car fans still associate the name ‘Esprit’ with James Bond’s wedge, perhaps it’s now time to re-evaluate the situation, and conclude that the real storm happened in 1987, and it was actually orchestrated by Peter Stevens into something considerably more enduring.

I don’t want to deny the Esprit its “Hallo” effect in the Lotus range, but for me, the Elite in 1974 was THE turning point for Lotus. I certainly won’t own one in this life, but I find her quite appealing…

The Peter Stevens restyle was a brilliant improvement on the original. For me the words supercar and 4-cylinder are not compatible so if I was to choose one of these as a favourite it could only be the V8. I wonder if they gave many thoughts to putting the PRV V6 into it like the DeLorean DMC12 ?

The PRV V6, worthy though it was as a saloon propellant, was totally unsporting and too heavy for a mid engined car . The turbocharged version used in the A610 was slightly more suitable but still too heavy for its position. As far as 4 cylinders not being suitable for a supercar, at the time many of the successful F1 cars were 4 cylinder turbos !

Remember reading a while back the 1973 oil crisis made Lotus temporarily consider developing an 1800cc version of the Slant-Four engine, a proposal that Colin Chapman quickly dismissed.
Cannot seem to find any reference such a proposal was ever considered though beyond Lotus’s shelved 4-litre V8 project that could have potentially spawned a 4.4-litre V8.

The Esprit arrived at the right time, the energy crisis years, when soaring petrol prices, severe inflation, a supertax on the rich and stricter speed limits could have killed off the supercar. A 140 mph car with the same fuel consumption as a Cortina, rustproof bodywork and Ferrari like styling, what wasn’t there to like. Also the James Bond connection helped sales and the Turbo version was an awesome competitor to its rivals from Italy and Germany.
Also I’m sure the Esprit was an inspiration for the Porsche 944( the 924 was seen as a bit pedestrian), which offered 150 mph performance with 30 mpg fuel consumption and lower ownership costs than the 911.

I agree the Espirit was introduced at just the right time for Lotus.
The Europa was getting old & the 7 sold off to Caterham so it was a good chance to make a fresh start.
The Elite / Eclat / Excel family also had the wedge theme.
IIRC the Porsche 924 was originally intended to be an Audi.

@ Richard 16378, it was a supercar that was just right for the times, fast enough to keep up with far more expensive Italian supercars, but without the need to use a gallon of petrol every 12 miles. I’d imagine as well, the Esprit’s lowish fuel consumption would make it practical on a long journey, making a journey from Edinburgh to the South Coast possible on one tank( I do recall some Italian supercars needing a full tank every 200 miles).

@ Hilton D, it’s odd how parts from run of the mill cars end up on specialist cars. Aston Martin’s V8 used rear lights from a Hillman Hunter and the Lotus Europa used the rear lights from the Mark 1 Escort. Yet the Marina’s door handles always looked quite cool and up to date and it’s no wonder they found a use on another car.

I guess it’s easier for smaller makers to buy in parts rather than have them sepcially made.
TVR & Reliant often raided the Ford parts bins, & even Bristol used Vauxhall Senator rear lights.

Given the original Lotus V8 project was a 4-litre why did Lotus decide to instead develop a 3.5-litre V8 Twin-Turbo for the Esprit?
While it is mentioned the Lotus Slant-4 engine allegedly could not be fitted inside a Lotus Elise and that the Rover K-Series was always the intended engine for the original Elise project (along with other joint-projects), it makes one wonder whether other engines were considered for the Elise S1.
As creating a Slant-4 out of the 3.5-litre Lotus V8, one ends up with a displacement of 1753cc capable of roughly putting out around 120-150 hp in naturally aspirated form and around 180-250 hp in turbocharged form.

“Lotus continues to be a firm well used to crises, and the Esprit was launched in the midst of its most difficult-ever period. In the early ’70s, chairman Colin Chapman decided the only way the small company would survive — let along prosper — was to move upmarket, for he knew that expensive cars were less susceptible to economic uncertainties than cheap ones.”
In retrospect it was a mistake for Chapman to move upmarket and not directly replace the Elan, as segment retreat eventually led to it being taken over the MX-5.
Seem to recall a link a few years back mentioninauxhall Slant-4 as test-beds to speed up development for their own (largely unrelated) Slant-4 design, a 1600-1800cc Lotus Slant-4 (putting out roughly 115-140 hp up to 150 hp – sans turbo variants) for a direct 1970s Elan replacement sto the later Vegantune Evante replica) or basically being a 2-door 2-seater Eclat/Excel in terms of styling.

There was a 15 year gap between the Elan being pensioned off & the MX-5 being launched, & during this time was the golden age of the hot hatch & Reganomics which caused problems for so many small sports cars.
Lotus brought out the FWD Elan not long after the MX-5 so they didn’t totally take their eyes off the ball.

While the golden age of the hot hatch, etc did contribute towards the decline of the small sports car prior to the MX-5, the fact is Lotus could have stayed in the game even profited from the fuel crisis era with a smaller Eclat/Excel based Elan replacement (which would have benefited Lotus’s other stillborn projects and perhaps even brought forward the Lotus V8 engine).
It would have benefited the company to not retreat from the segment at a time where other rivals were either making old fashioned (MG – Midget / B, Triumph Spitfire), under-powered (Fiat via X1/9) or under-developed offerings (Reliant Scimitar SS1).
Sure, Lotus belatedly attempted to remedy the issue with the Elan M90 project prior to the Elan M100 though while the latter was considered one of the world’s best FWD cars. It cannot be considered an adequate Elan replacement unlike the later Elise or even the earlier M90 project had it reached production.

You’re probably right, Fiat & Alfa Romeo managed to keep their Spyders in production in the 1980s so the market wasn’t totally dead.
How involved was Lotus with the Jensen Healy, apart from supplying the engines?

Then Toyota and Mazda entered the sports car market and the MR2 and MX 5 sold well. I think the problem with MG was their cars had become starved of investment in the seventies, they were old fashioned and not very powerful, and the market was moving on.

Both Fiat and Alfa Romeo did indeed managed to keep their Spyders in production, the latter even until the 1990s though did not appear to do much with them once the MR-2 and MX-5 appeared on the scene.
AFAIK Lotus supplying the engines was the extent of their involvement with the Jensen-Healey, in retrospect though the prototypes of the latter actually had better styling compared to the production car (particularly at the front via the rejected William Towns proposal and others with either a smoother vaguely MGB-like front or a more TR6-like front).
Also while it would have been ideal for Jensen-Healey to have had a properly developed Lotus Slant-4 engine from the outset (instead of being used as the sacrificial test-bed), they would have probably been better off using another engine such as from Volvo, Simca (e.g. Type 180 – including a later 16-valve Twin-Cam head designed for the unit by Riccardo planned for introduction in 1975), Rover V8 or BMW M10/M30 (Geoffrey Healey suggested Qvale short-circuited an approach to BMW by talking to them directly and being unrealistic about the cars being made per week).
An early 2-litre B or O-Series could have helped the MGB, yet against the competition they really needed something like the EX234 prototype (with engines ranging from 1300-2000cc or 1600-2000cc) that could have featured a similarly long production run as Fiat’s and Alfa Romeo’s own sportscars (followed by updates including RV8-like facelift, M/T-Series engines and Hydragas suspension).
Lower-end versions of a hypothetical Eclat/Excel derived Elan replacement could have still later utilized both the styling and the Toyota/Isuzu-sourced 1.6 engines of the M90 / M100 (either slotting below the Lotus Slant-4s or replacing the 1600-1800cc versions) during the 1980s-1990s prior to being replaced by the Elise.

The market for the traditional small sports car was badly dented when MG and Triumph stopped making sports cars. The TR7 could have been kept going as the last models were far better made than the Speke cars, but a strong pound and a recession was killing sales in America, and British Leyland saw the car as an expensive irrelevance by 1981. Fiat still had the X 1/9 and there were specialist low volume companies like Caterham, but the small sports car market was a fraction the size it was in 1970.

To be fair Fiat could have probably reignited interest in the small sports car segment had they opted to fit the 1.3/1.4 Turbo or even a tuned 1.6 version of the 128 SOHC engines into the X1/9, apparently in 1984 Bertone proposed an updated X1/9 featuring an attractive facelift including Porsche-like glass-back and Uno Turbo engine propelling it up to 130 mph (which could have allowed it to remain in production a bit longer prior to being directly replaced by the Barchetta in the mid-1990s as was the case with the larger Alfa Romeo Spider).
The TR7 could have indeed been kept in production until at least the mid/late-1980s, the planned Broadside / RT061 proposals did look attractive however the TR7 was conceived to be a more upmarket car compared to the MGB as opposed to outright replacement like the EX234 prototype (notwithstanding the idea of spawning a 1.7 O-Series variant to indirectly replace the Midget/Spitfire).

Lotus also offered a budget entry to the joys of driving a Lotus when they made a version of the Talbot Sunbeam, again just right for the fuel crtisis, recessionary era at the end of the seventies. It did seem Lotus could offer you the joys of supercar driving without the huge prices and running costs associated with Italian supercars. Also being British, there were patriotic reasons for buying a Lotus.

The “original ” Esprit is still to me the definitive version, back from a time when British manufacturers weren’t afraid to sell completely modern cars, it still looks far more modern than any current Lotus
The V8 had a very short production life of only 8 years, which seems a waste. Indeed there have been few British V8s with short lives, when you consider the short lived Triumph and TVR V8s as well

It’s a shame the link with Peugeot Talbot was broken in 1981 when Linwood was closed and the Lotus Sunbeam was scrapped. America had a hot version of the Horizon, so why not transfer the 2.2 Lotus engine to the British Horizon, which with improved handling, a five speed gearbox to aid refinement and economy( something which was a bit lacking in the Sunbeam) and Lotus badges could have become a real GTi beater. Also since American Hortizons came with a 2.2 litre Chrysler engine, there would be little difficulty in fitting the Lotus engine to the Talbot.

In European form the Horizon was a determined understeerer, probably due to its torsion bar front suspension. While I suspect the 2.2 would have fitted (after all the made the XUD fit), the handling would have probably have been even worse with added power.

Likely because the European and North American Horizons are different cars beneath the exterior styling, along with a question of whether the 2.2 Lotus Slant-4 could be mounted in a transversely FWD layout.
Because the European Horizon was derived from a shortened Chrysler Alpine, the former receiving the 2.2 Lotus Slant-4 engine would depend on the Alpine featuring the originally planned 1.6-2.2 Type 180 engines.
Due to the North American Horizon (also known as the Chrysler L platform) featuring large more potent engines, it is possible a European adapted version of the North American Horizon as planned in better circumstances could have featured the 2.2 Lotus Slant-4. Additionally the North American Horizon did form the basis of the larger Chrysler K platform and apparently featured AWD versions (though the only reference appears to be on early 1990s Chrysler minivans as opposed to any models from the 1980s).
Perhaps if Chrysler was in a much better financial position than an AWD version of the North American Horizon would have been feasible for both sides of the Atlantic.
More interested to know whether the Talbot Arizona (aka Peugeot 309) had any room to feature anything like the 2.2 Lotus Slant-4.

Lotus was working with Chrysler in the mid-1980s/early 1990s on a number of programs. The only one to make it to production was the DOHC cylinder head for Chrysler’s 2.2-liter inline four. Best known for its appearance under the hood of the Dodge Spirit R/T, the combination of the free-breathing head, Garrett turbocharger, and intercooler helped the balance-shafted engine produce 224 hp and 218 lb.-ft. of torque. It was mated to a five-speed Getrag transaxle, and made the Spirit the fastest volume-produced four-door sedan available in the U.S. upon its debut in 1991. It also was all that was left of Chrysler’s plans to have Lotus build it a version of the Esprit.
What most people don’t know is that Lotus was doing a lot of work for Chrysler at the time. In 1985, Lotus was tasked with designing a DOHC version of the 2.5-liter four, which produced approximately 150 hp and had a 7,500 rpm redline. It was one of the motors that was to be offered in the Dodge Daytona, with the turbo from the Spirit R/T planned as the only engine for the AWD Daytona. Audi’s Coupe Qyattro was the target for that vehicle, and John Miles was the chassis development lead for Lotus on that car. Word was the car was quite close to its target, and that Miles worked closely with Roger Becker on this and other Chrysler vehicle dynamics projects. Unfortunately, the AWD Daytona was cancelled in late 1987 after Chrysler joined forces with Mitsubishi to produce what became know as the “Diamond Star cars” (Plymouth Laser, Mitsubishi Eclipse, and Eagle Talon) built at the Diamond Star plant in Bloomington-Normal, Illinois from early 1989. Dodge was scheduled to get is own version of the car, but it was shifted over to the Eagle division to give it a vehicle that would increase showroom traffic.
Money was tight at Chrysler, and the lifeline from Mitsubishi allowed it to upgrade and update its lineup with what effectively was other people’s money. Sadly, however, no attempt was made to revive another project that had succumbed to the budget man’s axe, the Chrysler version of the Esprit.
Lee Iacocca was nothing if not a salesman, and knew the effect a halo car like the Esprit would have on the lineups. Lotus, struggling with budget crises of its own, also knew the effect a deal like this would have on its bottom line. The transverse powertrain found in the Spirit R/T was originally created for this car, where it would be placed in a new, purpose-designed chassis, and clothed it in modified Esprit bodywork. The change in engine orientation reportedly liberated five inches of interior room, some of which was used to increase seat travel, while the rest was commandeered for a padded, leather-covered luggage tray. There were even plans to develop small jump seats to give the car 2+2 capability, but it’s unclear how far, if at all, this proposal progressed. There also was room for a cargo container behind the engine and gearbox. Either this box or the interior luggage tray was said to be capable of holding a pair of golf bags.
Reportedly, an engineering prototype of the “Chrysler Esprit” was made, but it’s unclear what happened to it upon cancellation of the program.

Aside from Lotus’s work on the Chrysler 2.2 & 2.5 engine, along with the planned AWD Dodge Daytona* and Chrysler’s version of the Lotus Esprit**, where there any other Chrysler projects that Lotus was involved in?
*- Was the AWD Dodge Daytona the same project as the AWD Lamborghini Jalpa V8-powered Decepzione or either a related or separate development? Is it known how the planned 2.2 or 2.5 turbo engine used for the AWD Dodge Daytona prototype compared with the 250-255 hp 3.5-litre Jalpa V8?
**- Am assuming this 225 hp 2.2 Spirit R/T powered Chrysler Esprit would have replaced the Lotus 900 Series Slant-Four engines though would it have completely butterflied the away Lotus 900-Series V8 or did Lotus (then owned IIRC by General Motors) have something else in mind like the LT5 V8 or given their links with Isuzu via the FWD Elan (also connected to GM) perhaps even an all-alloy 32-valve 240+ hp 3.5-litre Isuzu V8 that was originally planned for the unbuilt Chevrolet Beretta V8 (dubbed the “Feretta V8”)?
Also wonder where the Esprit-bodied SID research vehicle fits in (featuring a 300 hp turbo V6 four-wheel drive package from the Metro 6R4)? –

Well being far away from the development saga , it was through the world express yearly auto mag and the 007 flick for the first time we came across the Esprit.First we were spelling it as ESPIRIT , but were bemused after knowing it was “ESPRIT”.But the sheer fantasy created for that movie is beyond anyone’s fathom of imagination and the movie buffs were swept by the awe for generations .
Any automobile is a trait of engineering capabilities and that too for a mid-engineered sports car is nothing but a out and out demonstration of adherent person’s skill, passion and a burning desire.Venturing and carving a niche after a soul stirring efforts and grit with determination resulting in birth of a ICON and ESPRIT is in that league.
Setting a foot in a fort of established and proven marque’s that too the cars hailed as incarnation of god on roads engulfed with orthodox followers where in worshiping them , and carving a niche a cut above the rest is not an ordinary feat. Let it be anybody make sure they are swayed by the car’s bewitching looks, hooked firmly by the extra-ordinary dimensions of the rubbers ,guided by pop-up headlamps setting as a breed apart.
And for me it was Sharon Stone who created a stir and for millions by piloting the mean machine on the winding roads of San Francisco and I think movie buffs were mesmerized by this legendary car’s indulgence in hot pursuits in a Hollywood thriller Basic Instinct.
And for a piece of information this car is featured in our Bollywood (Hindi)movie RANGEELA for a few seconds in a couple of scenes.

We were discussing Roger Moore’s use of the Lotus Esprit on a forum on Facebook. The Esprit could do everything an Aston Martin V8 could, but looked less bulky and far more modern and didn’t need a gallon of petrol every 10 miles, important in the era of high energy prices in the late seventies and early eighties. In For Your Eyes Only, Roger’s Esprit with the two tone paint and the skis on the roof looked briilliant.

I think they were trying to give Roger Moore’s films a different feel to the Connery era.
The Lotus Esprit was a good choice just as a Glenn mentions above.

You are right – the Connery era was a big straight laced with the odd quip, but they wanted to add more comedy. Diamonds are Forever is a perfect example of this, as it was written for Roger Moore but due to his contract with the Lew Grade he could not be released and Sean came back. The humour is noticeable in this film compared to the previous Bond’s and was definitely close to that of the Moore era.

Speaking of Lotuses, the last series of The Avengers has finished its re run on ITV 4 and Linda Thorson drives a very nice Lotus Europa Special similar to the one at the top of the article. While best known for Patrick Macnee’s vintage Bentley, Lotus enjoyed a good relationship with the Avengers, providing cars for Diana Rigg and Linda Thorson.

This guide will teach how to to crop and edit images on an Android device. The instructions work with all devices and all versions of Android.
Using your smartphone is the easiest way to take and share pictures when you are ion the move. To make any picture more noticeable, you may need to use some adjusting, cropping, and enhancing tools. Many people believe this is too hard to do on Android or that there is no suitable tools for the task. They are wrong.
As an Android user, you are quite lucky, as Google has a good set of editing features that will help you modify your photo however you want.
We must note that these features could be different because of the different versions of the Google Photos App. With the introduction of the Lollipop OS, the new Photos App has been launched as well, but there are no significant changes to the crop/resize tools. Both the old and the new version of this app provide many cool and interesting options for cropping and editing your pictures.
Here are the instructions on how to make the best use of the Photo app that comes with every Android device.:
How to Crop and Edit Images in Android
The Guide
Open your image with the Photos app. There will be three buttons along the bottom. Click on the one that looks like a pencil to start the editing process.
You will notice that the controls are laid out along the bottom as well.
Find the tool that looks like a magic wand – it will automatically fix your image in terms of color, brightness, and contrast. There will also appear a Crop and a Rotate controls.
* The cropping controls could be used by dragging inward from the corners.
* The App also provides some pre-designed filters that you may use for modifying your image’s appearance. In the new Photos App you can compare the new look and the previous one by tapping the rectangle with the vertical-line icon.
*To reverse what you have done to the image, hit ‘X’.
* To apply all the changes you have made, just tap the little checkmark.
* There are many other features like ‘Tune Image’ and ‘Selective’. You can choose them and adjust them as you wish.
* You may also use the effects that the Photos Apps provides (Vintage, Drama, Black & White, etc.). Just play with them freely. Also, you may add frames.
Experiments are always welcome. Play with all the features and check what you can achieve. In case you do not want to apply the changes made, you can reverse the process. In order to go back, hit the three dots in the upper-right corner. After that, go with ‘Revert’ from the list that you will see.
You may not have this particular version of the Google Photos App if your Android smartphone is an older one. Still, there should be a kind of a built-in photo viewer and editor. The Gallery App could also have some useful features.
Also, the version of Android on a Samsung phone, for example, may provide you with very different editing features from the one we have elaborated on above. No worries, though, they should include all these editing controls and maybe even some more.
However, we DO recommend Google Photos because of its editing features and automatic photo backup. You and your images will always be safe while using this App. No one could ever go wrong with it.
If something wrong happens, let us know in the comments. We will try to find a solution and to create an adequate guide for your certain case. Also, inform us if the article above has been any helpful! We are open for advice, suggestions, recommendations and all sorts of feedback.

Lab-based X-ray Emission Spectroscopy Studies of Electrical Energy Storage Materials: Building Bridges between PHYS and MSE Groups
While rechargeable batteries are a ubiquitous part of our society (cell phones, laptops, tablets, etc.), there are still a number of fundamental gaps in our understanding of their operation at the atomic level. If we hope to bring battery technology up to the level required for large-scale renewable energy and electric vehicle implementation, these gaps must be closed. My research focuses on x-ray spectroscopy, which is an essential tool in measuring the electronic structure of working batteries and battery materials. Unfortunately, the ability to perform these measurements has historically been hampered by the needed use of limited-access, world-class facilities. To this end, we are constructing a smaller-scale instrument to be owned and operated by the CEI. Having this instrument on campus will allow for unprecedented access to x-ray spectroscopic techniques, thus greatly speeding the development of next-generation battery materials. A first-generation version of this spectrometer has already been installed and is producing useful, high-quality data.

Video Shuttering on SMB large files
LightDestory
I am currently using an android device as SMB server, I use a paid app called "LAN Drive" that allow to run a SMB server with specific folder selected.
With such app I am able to stream videos from my phone to my Oculus Quest 2 but there is a issue: on large files 3gb+ the video playback just shutters for few seconds every 5 to 30 seconds, the issue is worse on LIVE 1.1.0 and gets a bit better on 1.1.0FIX but it is still there.
I tried both SKYBOX VR and HereSphere players and only SKYBOXVR is affected by this bug, HereSphere playback is very smooth but its SMB interface is not very user-friendly neither supports scenes.
The tested video is movie called Avatar, its size is 13.4GB.
LightDestory
I just want to add that both Oculus Quest 2 and my android device are connected on a 5GHz wifi with a full coverage of the signal.
m4ko
Very likely: If small files work but big files dont: Your connection speed is too low and/or your devices hardware cant read the file fast enough.
If you have a microsd card for example - especially a cheap one - that could be the bottleneck.
But more likely its your wifi.
Get a file browser with SMB support on the quest and try to copy the file to your quest - then look at the MB / s you get.
LightDestory
m4ko I don't think so, as I have already said: HereSphere uses the same samba server and the playback is very smooth.
I don't think there is bottleneck because I am streaming content from a UFS 2.1 memory nand (700Mbps of bandwith) moreover both Oculus Quest 2 and the phone are connected with 5Ghz wifi... which bandwith is more than enough for such streaming.
I think there is some issue on SMB implementation by SkyBox because HereSphere and Pigasus players runs smoothly.

LightDestory Hi, thanks for your feedback! Could you share with us([email protected]) the log files in Quest Log files may record some errors and help us debug. Also, we'll do more testings to further investigate the stuttering issue.

It isn’t that unique to see heavy metal combined with classical music anymore. Vitamin Records has been releasing string quartet tributes to hard rock acts for a while now, and you’ve probably at least heard one song from Apocalyptica (who started out as a cello tribute to Metallica). But just recently, posted a video […]

High Pressure Ball Valves
A reliable source for High Pressure Ball Valves information and leading High Pressure Ball Valves Companies & Manufacturers.
In order to ensure that your application requires a high pressure ball valve over another form of ball valve, consult with a knowledgeable high pressure ball valve manufacturer and they will be able to assess your unique needs and requirements. Read More…
High Pressure Ball Valves High pressure ball valves are simply ball valves that are built and designed for environments in which high pressure fluids and liquids are present. An ordinary ball valve would not be able to handle the pressures of these fluids in an appropriate way, which is why high pressure ball valves are specially designed in order to fit the unique needs of these types of applications.

Ball valves themselves function as a valve or control of the flow of fluid. The ball has some form of hole through it which creates a way for liquids to flow through it. The ball is then placed into a passageway that a fluid flows through; the ball is then able to stop the flow depending on where the hole is positioned.
If the hole is positioned parallel to the passageway then the liquid will flow through the valve relatively unrestricted. If the hole is positioned perpendicular to the passageway, then the flow is stopped as the ball will obstruct the fluid and will not let it pass through. The position of the value can be manipulated through manual or automatic operation depending on your applications needs.
High pressure ball valves utilize this same technique except for the fact that they allow for this process to take place within high pressure environments.
Once the right high pressure ball valve manufacturer is able to determine if a high pressure ball valve is right for you, they will also be able to suggest the right type of material according to your work environment and other conditions. Ball valves can be made from a wide range of materials from stainless steel to certain types of plastics. In order to ensure that you are getting the best possible product, be sure to fully disclose your application and any specialties that your work place may have.

VIDEOs: 2 Goldbergs on Mel Gibson–Whoopi Absurdly Defends, Bill Gets It
By Debbie Schlussel
If you monitor ABC’s “The View”–as I do for its goldmine of idiocy and estrogen-laden mind-poison–you won’t be surprised by what I saw yesterday. Whoopi Goldberg–who previously defended Helen Thomas’ anti-Semitic remarks, said Roman Polanski “didn’t rape rape,” and denied we really landed on the Moon–defended “my friend, Mel Gibson.” She claimed Gibson isn’t a racist nor an anti-Semite. Apparently, in her warped mind, if you’re drunk, you can’t be anti-Semitic. The video is below, but I prefer the REAL Goldberg, Bill Goldberg’s, solution to the Mel Gibson problem (watch the video): “I think Mel Gibson should get his ass kicked by a big Jew like me.” I doubt that the draft-dodging coward Gibson would be any match.
Two of a Kind
It’s so sad that far-left Joy Behar is now the voice of reason on this silly show. But she is. What do you expect with an airhead like Elisabeth Hasseldumb as the “conservative” on the show?

Mel’s spokesman has “quit” and no one out of Mel’s camp is commenting. I’d say he’ll get some time for the domestic abuse.
I would never blame the (gold digging) victim (extensive history of going from rich man to rich man).
Mel is at fault. His career is over.

I can’t understand Goldi Whoopberg’s defense. I can understanood example of Gen 12. Mel’s anti Semitism has resulted in his own destruction. You see it time and time again. Maligning Israel is the equivalent of poking your finger in God’s eye.

Yeah, I saw this too (by happenstance…I can’t bare to watch the silly beeotch show). I guess Whoopi does not think he’s a “racist-racist”.
The wonderful thing about Mel Gibson (whom I at one time adored) is that he is getting his just desserts. It’s disgusting when a hedonistic, Hollywood heathen leaves his wife and children for some gold-digging arse, but when a hypocritical, religious, anti-semite who’s proven to be a grand hypocrite in all he supposedly stands for, well, I was waiting for this day.
His flaunting his gold-digger, baby mama just made me so sick. He never, ever respected her, and she ought to have known that. She’s a star-effer basterd factory.

It’s disgusting how Hollywood makes excuses for inexcusable behavior! I love most of Mr.Gibson’s movies. I think he’s a great actor. It makes me so angry that beneath the talent lies a despicable person.

Bill Goldberg & Mel Gibson? I smell a Pay Per View…better call Vince McMahon. Gibson is a nice enough guy [sober]. Sadly today, he is a raging alcoholic run amok. Any one of us could be that Gonzoed if we drank like he did. The guy needs help, but the wreckage he has caused is his problem alone. If you listen to the unedited tapes, you can hear he is on speaker phone. The gal (Tera Titzoff?) is being quietly coached by someone in the room with her. Mel is a dumbass who walked into a Russian bear trap. He needs the jail time to dry out. Just another pathetic drunk….I did hear where she pulled a similar $cam with her last husband Timothy Dalton.

That beoch he took up with was born in Ukraine and claims to be a Roman Catholic. She is not a Russian.
Mel is a mentally ill alcoholic.
I knew a man who was nice when sober and not stressed out. But just let him take a drink and EVERYBODY was his enemy… even his own kids! He got violently angry and the insults flew like crazy and his tirades are horrible.
He had high blood pressure and never took medications. They made him sick to his stomach when he drank. So he never would take them.
He died in his sleep of a brain hemmorage at the age of 52… not really that old.
Personally I have trouble condeming a sick old drunk like Mel for his tirades, his hateful speech and his stupidity.
However, he is a prime example of a person who gains the richs of the world and loses his soul.
I am just going to pray for him and pray that someday he can overcome the “DEMON RUM” and learn to love himself and OTHERS as much as he loves that “DEMON RUM”.

I wonder how many more Hollywood careers would hang in the balance if private phone conversations were secretly recorded and then broadcast? Amazing how forgiving our culture is over John Mayer and Senator Byrd dropping N-bombs during interviews and Alec Baldwin calliing his daughter a “thoughtless little pig”. would love to see what goes on in phone conversations between Robin Wright and Sean Penn.

There is a misperception in general that the way someone behaves when intoxicated is the “real” person not hiding behind his social face. In fact, alcohol changes a person’s personality. Add to that anger and the personality is changed even more. I know nothing of Gibson’s “true” personality, I can only judge on what I’ve heard on this tape, all of which is wrong.

If you don’t understand the difference between right and wrong, you won’t get it. Judeo-Christian civilization sees Man is a created being who owes G-d a duty and so G-d owes us a duty. Islam on the other hand rejects this view and is agnostic on the very question of human responsibility before G-d and what G-d owes man. Western faith is guided by reason; Islam is guided by force. The same people who reject Western religion happen to be the same people who see nothing wrong with and in fact may well approve of Islamic agnosticism because it parallels their own. There is no great mystery here.

I’d consider Mel as anti-semitic and racist as the Reverend Jerry Wright only, scarier. Where did he learn this behavior from? Influences from his past of course.
You can’t listen to 15-20 years of pejoratives aimed at ethnic groups(like some people have)and not be swayed. But, the media cherrypicks around Wright’s polemics, like the “p-ussies,” they are.

Thanks (S)Mel(Ley) Gibson for showing us once again what you call your “faith”. You know in your heart you are right, you are always right in the sick reality of the movie that endlessly plays on the screen in the back of your skull where it is still 1939. You recently stated to your latest female punching bag that you have no friends. You are right. That is what the hate drug takes first. I doubt even BP could find a way to plug the rank pollution that pours from the crack in your face. Hey Whoopie, how do you like his use of the “N” word, I guess even you are left speechless for once.

Well another person who is constantly putting down blacks is Rush Limbaugh. He just did it today, stating that ‘That cracker made a lot of African-Americans millionaires and fired a lot of white people.’
He has called President Obama ‘The Magic Negro’. And previously stated that football player Donovan McNabb was overrated by the media because he’s black.
Rush may not have said the ‘N’ word in public, but with these negative comments said in public–I’d like to hear what he says when he is drunk!

Oh yeah, Huffington Post is a great, reliable source…not. try listening to rush IN context. If I remember right, Rush was commenting on that ultra-racist Black Panther (who advocates all whites being killed).

Now, how do you think and feel about you being taken out of context? Please do some real research (such as actually listening to the show) and get educated about issues/what was said and its context before letting the world know about your ignorance and lack of intelligence.

Let’s face it: Mel Gibson never grew up. He was a good actor, never great. And even though I’ve never seen the “Thrashing of the X-t” – oopsie… “Passion of the Christ” – it appears that this guy is overcompensating for his lack of immaturity. He makes Lindsay Lohan look like Mother Teresa with his antics. And with latest dalliance with a Rooski strumpet, he’d make Roman Polanski look like a MILF hunter.
And with that shall we get on with our lives. Go get ’em and do ‘er, Bill Goldberg. Leave some for Brock.

Actually, the crack about the “Magic Negro” that Rush was poking fun at was first written by some staff writer at the LA Times. Rush was just poking fun at the comment and even has a pretty funny parody song done to the tune of “Puff the Magic Dragon” but he calls it “Barack the Magic Negro” and its sung, in parody of course, by Al Sharpton using a megaphone. Pretty funny stuff. So Sange, please try getting your stuff together before you make a fool of yourself.

Whoopi is an idiot. How does one speak such garbage about Jews, blacks and not be a racist? I suspect he will use being drunk as an excuse. Having been formerly married to a drunk for 18 years, I know they speak their true feelings when drunk. Alcohol remove inhibitions and this loosens the controls one normally has on their mouths. So go to hell Whoopi. Why not try defending people who deserve it. Not people like Gibson and Polanski.

I don’t know Mel Gibson. I would guess that no one on this board knows Mel Gibson. At the time Mel was producing The Passion of the Christ I would read stories of his drinking binges and some of his interviews during that period seemed just a bit odd. It was clear Mel had issues and I was thinking he produced the Passion film as a kind of redemption.
I would not be surprised if Mel has an undiagnosed condition such as clinical depression. Men often are in denial of such afflictions and they turn to alcohol to deal with the symptoms. I know this from experience. I’ll go out on a limb here and not condemn Mel but say that he needs our prayers. He has issues and needs help.
To paraphrase Christ, let he who has never uttered or thought a racial slur in anger cast the first stone.
There I said it!

Oscar on July 14erson put his head through a glass window. It was terrifing!
It is NOT out of the range of possibilities that Mel has a chemical depression issue and alcohol makes him do things that a normal well adjusted person would never do.
I have great problems with the fact that you call a person a “LIB” because they refuse to condemn a person and want to pray for them.

Hello, Oscar… as an ex-addict, I’ve been where Mel Gibson has been.
The difference is that I’ve accepted my terminal condition and have taken steps to control it. This is not a curable disease – once you have a taste and get hooked, you’re hooked for life and beyond.

Granted, but I’m quite sure that Mel stands to lose everything, and that there are so many resources that he could use to avoid falling into the same hole twice. He could afford them, but his latest tirade has proven that he has not yet chosen rehab.
But one thing stands to reason: it’s hard to purge whatever is bred in the bone. Mel Gibson may need our prayers, but this is his battle, and this ensuing controversy should serve as an intervention. Either the masses carry it out, or the pol9:47 am

Nobody has said that clinical depression causes hatred for any race or group.
Clinical depression is a disease and it has the side effects that are distressing to all around them.
Post partum depression in women has caused serious crimes and suicide.
MENTAL ILLNESS is not an excuse it can be the reason WHY some people do horrid things to others.
Alcoholism is a disease. Mel IS an alcoholic and Mel IS a sick man. He spouts hate for others too.
That is because he HATES MEL too!
Mel is on self-destruct mode.
So I will pray for him just as I would for ANY human who is ill.
And I am no liberal. Just a Christian.

And its an illustration the famous do fall hard. The head of Mel’s talent agency, a Jew – cut off ties with him. He wouldn’t do it before out of regard for his partner. Now things changed. Oh and what goes around, comes around.

The double standard is hilarious. When a black conservative defends a white conservative for making racist comments, white conservatives applaud him for “coming off the plantation”, “rejecting tribalism”, “rejecting victimization”, “rejecting political etc. But when a black liberal defends someone for making ANTI-SEMITIC comments, he gets trashed by the same conservatives.
And this is where the Rush Limbaugh/Glenn Beck thing comes in. Limbaugh and Beck can say anything they want about blacks and no conservative cares. Why? Because they defend Israel and never say anything anti-Semitic. It’s only the conservatives who bash Jews and Israel (or tolerate others who do) like Sean Hannity and Pat Buchanan that get criticized, and then THAT’S when their comments against blacks all of a sudden gets noticed.
Again, take Pat Buchanan. He was fully accepted within the conservative mainstream for decades so long as he was “only” a segregationist. It was only when his anti-Semitism went overboard that he became persona non-grata among conservatives. And Ann Coulter – who is a Pat Buchanan worshiper and wannabe (except that she is three times as vicious but only 1/3 as smart) – is embraced and beloved because she came along a couple of decades later and as a result learned to embrace Jews and Israel.
Look, people who hate both blacks and Jews are just being consistent. The people who embrace one while hating the other are hypocrites, and are probably masking their true feelings. Chances are if you hate Jews you also hate blacks and vice-versa. And if you are a black person who hates Jews (or whites), or a Jewish person who hates blacks, it is usually because you hate yourself.
If Mel Gibson wasn’t an anti-Semite, the very same people bashing him on this site would be praising him for simply telling politically incorrect truths about how blacks disproportionately commit crime, and you would be praising Whoopi Goldberg, claiming “See, Whoopi knows that Mel doesn’t hate all blacks, just black rapists!” and then cite the FBI stats showing that black men are 100 times more likely to rape white women than white men are to rape black women. And don’t say that you wouldn’t be, because I’ve read too many comments on and the other haunts.

Hey Gerald,
I think emotions may be driving some of your points. I’ve been listening to Rush for a while, even saw him when he had his TV show, and he satirizes what the left and liberals say. Actually, he deciphers and defines what they’re trying to tell/sell people in their verbal masquerades, messages or political word plays. He calls them out and, to irk them, plays them like a fiddle. Limbaugh, to me, doesn’t come across as a racist, as many on the left try to paint him out to be. Beck: don’t really care about him. He’s lucky he came on board at the right time. Buchanan – never liked him. I will say he comes across a one of those having problems with other’s color (why does MSNBC have him?). Hannity’s alright (can be kind of whinny). Coulter is cool. On Coulter, I haven’t read or heard her say anything dim witted or wild. In fact, the times I’ve seen her, on the tele, she defends her positions very well. Some of these pundits may reflect, positive, similar or questionable ideologies or thoughts people may, themselves, have. Maybe that’s when they feel they can relate or connect.
Nevertheless, on the Gibson thing, wrong is wrong. Mel is wrong, the left is wrong and hatred is wrong. With all his money and influence and connections Mel had a golden opportunity to correct or drive out his demons. Those that, unfortunately, it seems his old man passed on to him. He didn’t. Now he has to answer for it. If anyone tries to defend him, yeah, they are wrong. Whether they’re on the left or right or whatever. What’s in your heart – it’s in your heart. Right, wrong, good or evil. What you were taught, you will live.
The best thing, as Debbie says, is: think for yourself.

We all know how those 2 phonies feel about us, but now what’s the deal with “The View?” Whoopie as the “Mad Hatter” can be very entertaining. If anyone would take her seriously, I’d recommend their seeing shrink and FAST! I did get to hear Mel’s series of “rants” and he’s not just your average anti-Semite, and bigot, he sounds like someone with full-fledged NPD and Borderline Personality Disorder. I wonder how long they were together before he started to “erupt” because surely no normal woman would have a baby with a man that abuses her in such a way…oh wait, forgot, Hollywood, everyone is really out for themselves, she for her career, him ’cause he’s an old shit and needs to feed his ego with a young trophy wife.

By the way, I was able to get around this whole nonsense of ABC blocking the video, as it is uploaded by several sources however, if Whoopi can claim that “people can say things when they are drunk” which is usually the truth because booze acts like a truth drug, then Whoopie must be on crack because she sounds like she’s tripping. Maybe, Joy’s “Worldview” is changing a bit, don’t you think, perhaps her Jewish boyfriend has finally talked some sense into her? This makes for really stupid “Hollywood” entertainment, yet it is a nice break from our news which is about Gaza Flotilla Terrorist Stunts, random attacks on innocent Israeli drivers by out-of-control Arabs on our highways, and attempted lynchings of Israeli citizens right here in our capital of Jerusalem. Thanks for all the great articles Debbie!

1) I’m still mystified about calling Gibson a draft dodger. His father Hutton (not Mel) made the decision to move to Australia (I believe Mel’s mother was an Aussie). And Australians also served in Vietnam. The war was winding down when Mel hit 18.
2) Now there are reports out from audio forensic experts saying they doubt the authenticity of the recordings, saying they may have been doctored/spliced. His ex says she had nothing to do with the release of the recordings, which sounds eerily familiar to Kim Basinger when Alec Baldwin’s recordings were released.
All in all, I find this whole thing disturbing, especially since so many have adopted a “guilty until proven guilty” attitude. If he’s guilty, fine, but what IF this audio was altered?

Dutch insect protein producer, Protix, has generated €15.5m (US$18.5m) in a new funding round, with the investment set to support the next leg of its development.
Existing shareholders Aqua-Spark, Rabo Corporate Investments and the Brabrant Development Company (BOM) participated in the latest round, and Dutch investment agency, Invest-NL, advanced €7.5m in capital as a new investor.
“With this funding round, Protix can further optimize production capacity and accelerate its international expansion,” said the company that breeds larvae from the Black Soldier Fly (BSF) and processes them into ingredients like proteins and lipids for use in feed.

In terms of what the first staging posts would be in that international rollout, Kees Aarts, founder and CEO of Protix, told us in March 2020: “We want to expand outside of the Netherlands - in Europe, and in North America – and we are also considering franchising our technology to investors in Asia and South America.”
In 2019, Protix opened its insect factory in Bergen op Zoom in the Netherlands, a massive, industrial-scale and automated production facility for insect farming. Some €40m was invested in that plant, and within months of the opening of that factory, Protix attracted investor, Rabo Corporate Investments, as a shareholder.
EU insect regulation
In November last year, we reported on how the legislative work to authorize insect proteins for use in poultry and pig feed in Europe was intensifying.
A virtual workshop, that month, organized by the Brussels based industry group, the International Platform of Insects for Food and Feed (IPIFF), heard from European Commission spokespersons on this, notably Sabine Juelicher, Directorate-General for Health and Food Safety.
She said the Commission was determining how to manage the transition to a more environment friendly food system, under the EU Green Deal, one that provides social security and economic sustainability.
“We recognize the role that insect farming can play in the Farm to Fork strategy, in making our food systems more sustainable,” she commented.
She said the Commission is “working intensively” with member states to have insect protein authorized for use in poultry and pig feed. “It is part of a bigger, complex package; nevertheless, we see a lot of opportunity around opening up the market for insect protein.”

Philadelphia Eagles general manager Howie Roseman appeared on Sports Radio 94WIP this morning. He was asked if he would draft Jalen Hurts all over again, knowing what he knows now. Roseman's answer was honest, but could easily be taken as a shot at Carson Wentz. Even if it wasn't.
Roseman said that the team believes that Jalen Hurts can win, and more importantly, that he will be available, unlike Wentz.
Howie Roseman on @SportsRadioWIP…
On Jalen Hurts: “He can play, and he can win.”
On if he’d make the Hurts pick again: “We loved Carson … (but) we played four playoff games and we needed our backup in every one.” #Eagles
— Mike Kaye (@mike_e_kaye) September 8, 2021
Even worse, the Eagles have actually played six playoff games since drafting Carson Wentz in 2016. Wentz appeared in just one of those games. He started the team's 2019 playoff game against the Seattle Seahawks, but was knocked out of the game on a helmet-to-helmet hit by Jadeveon Clowney.
Other than that, Nick Foles started the other five games when Wentz was injured, winning four out of five, including Super Bowl LII against the New England Patriots. Wentz had 33 touchdowns and just 7 interceptions before he tore his ACL in the 14th game of that season.
He was never able to recover in Philadelphia. Now he's in Indianapolis and Hurts has all the pressure to perform in Philly. And apparently just as important as performing is being available.

Abstract - The objectives of this research were to determine if it is possible to produce PRRS negative pigs from multiple PRRS sero-positive herds over time using segregated early weaning (SEW) and to evaluate serological stability of participating breeding herds and the impact of sow vaccination on sow herd stability. The following definitions were established. A vaccinated herd was considered serologically stable if of the sow samples had PRRS ELISA S/P ratios < 2.0. A non-vaccinated herd was considered serologically stable if of the sow samples had PRRS ELISA S/P ratios < 1.0 and of sow samples had PRRS ELISA S/P ratios > 2.0 (modified from Dee. Proc AASP, 1998; 409-411). Serological stability of ten PRRS sero-positive herds was assessed by ed between 8 and 14 days of age and isolated in an off-site nursery for 90 days. The procedure was repeated threerom pigs obtained from vaccinated herds. Serial blood tests of pigs were conducted at weaning and 30, 60 and 90 days of age. Serology was confirmed and clarified using PRRS RT-PCR and RFLP assays. Littermates remaining on the farm of origin were also tested at weaning and at 60 days of age. All closed vaccinated herds had of sow samples with PRRS ELISA S/P ratios < 2.0. All piglets from these herds became negative after 30-60 days and remained negative up to 90 days of age. The same results were obtained in the repeated trials. Littermates remaining on the farm of origin had an active PRRS virus (PRRSV) infection as demonstrated by rising S/P ratios in trial 1, but not in the repeated trials. Two closed non-vaccinated herds had of sow samples with PRRS ELISA S/P ratios < 1.0. One of these had of sow samples with PRRS ELISA S/P ratios >2.0. The number of sero-positive piglets and their S/P ratio values increased over time. In two non-vaccinated herds, piglets were PRRS virus positive at weaning. One field and one intermediate strain of PRRS virus were identified. PRRS negative pigs were produced from two stable, non-vaccinated herds. One open non-vaccinated herd had 56.7% and 10.0% of sow samples with PRRS ELISA S/P < 1.0 and PRRS ELISA S/P > 2.0, respectively. PRRSV positive piglets were detected at weaning in this herd. PRRS negative pigs were produced after dams were vaccinated. The production of PRRS virus negative pigs from multiple PRRS virus positive herds over time using SEW technology requires a stable breeding herd. Assessment of serological stability by the suggested criteria might be very useful, but should not be overestimated. The consistent stability of vaccinated herds observed in this study suggests that vaccinated herds are more likely to be stable than non-vaccinated herds. Results need to be validated in large commercial operations.

If your boyfriend gets arrested and you are the one going to bail him out, and you are in a stolen car and don't have a driver's license, you should walk to jail. One woman did not.
On Friday, July 8, 41-year-old Jaime Marie Estenson of Sioux Falls drove her 2007 Chevy Suburban to the Lyon County Law Enforcement Center in Rock Rapids, Iowa to bail her boyfriend out of jail, according to
Deputies at the sheriff's office discovered that Estenson had her driver's license revoked in South Dakota. Then when asked to provide proof of insurance or a registration document for the vehicle, she could not produce them.
As deputies dug deeper, they discovered that it was not her vehicle at all. The Suburban was reported stolen out of Worthington, Minnesota, and was valued at more than $11,000.
Estenson's boyfriend would have to wait for his bond as she was arrested and charged with first-degree theft, operation without a registration card or plate, no valid driver’s license, and failure to provide proof of vehicle liability insurance.

To manually create a new site, firstly the organisational unit which the site is to be created under should be selected. In this example 'Portfolio' is the organisational unit. In order to edit an organisational unit, the admin tab should be selected. It is also possible to create a new organisational unit in this tab. This is achieved by selecting 'Create New Org Unit'. To create a site, 'Create New Building' should be selected within the org unit.
To add a sub-site, the existing, or in this case, newly created site should be chosen and then, 'Create New Building' selected. This will enable a sub-site, e.g. a floor or an external unit to be created and linked to the main site

Ecuador is one of the world's most megadiverse countries, but it also has one of the highest rates of deforestation in Latin America. Between 70 and 94,000 hectares of tropical forest are lost each year, estimates say. Despite a state policy of protected areas and economic stimulus for communities, reduction in the rate of deforestation has not advanced as quickly as some have hoped.
What’s more, it has slowed in the last few years, especially in the regions furthest from the capital.
This project by Pulitzer Center grantee Rodolfo Asar seeks to explain why the reduction in the rate of deforestation has slowed in Ecuador's far-flung regions. These include the silent invasion of palm cultivation in Esmeraldas, the new road in Morona Santiago, and the failure of a colonization project in Sucumbios.
Changes in land use to introduce industrial plantations and cattle raising, the colonization of virgin forests, and logging are some of the main problems. But there are also new factors caused by the deepening political instability and economic crisis of the last two years. For example, the decision by the indigenous Shuar or Jivaro authorities, after a battle with the national government, to construct a new highway in their territory.
So what is the environmental damage being caused by industrial plantations and new highways? How is it affecting people’s lives? What changes can already be noted in the climate of these regions?
Support for this reporting was made possible by the Rainforest Journalism Fund, in association with the Pulitzer Center.

In Morona Santiago, Deforestation Exists Alongside Poverty and Cultural Change
Rodolfo Asar
Forged documents, cloned trucks, and bribes are some of the methods used by the illegal loggers in Ecuador’s Morona Santiago province to extract timber from the rainforest which the Shuar nation struggle to protect. Government mining concessions to their land have led to evictions and leaders being sued for protesting.

Along the Vía Auca and in Orellana, the Footprint of Deforestation Grows
Rodolfo Asar
When the Ecuadorean government opened the Via Auca, a new highway leading to oilfields deep in the rainforest, hordes of would be colonists poured along it looking for El Dorado. Most failed, but the Huaorani people have managed to defend their territory against invaders.

Esmeraldas: The Dying Jungle in the Corner of Ecuador
Rodolfo Asar
Esmeraldas was once known as Equador's greenest province. Now indigenous and afrodescendent communities struggle to survive as loggers and palm oil producers invade the rainforest around them.
Why Ecuador, one of the most biodiverse countries in the world, is failing to stop deforestation in its tropical forests.

Litigation Lawyers in Crete
In Crete, Illinois, the civil litigation system is primarily concerned with compensating the victims of wrongdoing, rather than punishing the wrongdoers, or casting moral blame upon them.
Of course, there are exceptions to this rule. In Crete, Illinois, courts will, in relatively rare cases, require defendants to pay plaintiffs sums of money which aren't calculated by the actual harm and costs the plaintiff has incurred. Alternatively, these "punitive damages," as they are called, are meant to punish and deter wrongdoing.
It's essential to note that courts in Crete, Illinois prefer not to grant punitive damages. This is because the civil justice system is designed primarily to compensate the victims of wrongdoing. However, there are some cases where the defendant's conduct was so immoral and evil that civil courts have an interest in making them pay aditive damages in Crete, Illinois
A majority of personal injury litigation actions in Crete, Illinois do not involve the possibility of punitive damages, because they typiche plaintiff compensatory damages, but it is not enough for punitive damages.
Punitive damages in Crete, Illinois are only awarded in the most extreme cases. Fraud, theft, assault, battery, and other intentional, immoral acts are grounds for punitive damages. Crete, Illinois courts will consider various factors in considering whether or not to award punitive damages. For example, the court might employ a sliding scale that weighs the immorality of the defendant's behavior against the actual harm that it caused to the plaintiff, and calculate damages accordi considerable amounts of property.
A good rule of thumb for calculating the upper limit of punitive damages in Crete, Illinois is that punitive damages can be no larger than compensatory damages times ten. This rule is not absolute, of course. Courts in Illinois have a good deal of discretion in awarding punitive damages, and will determine them based on the facts of each case. Because of this, punitive damage awards larger than 10 times compensatory damages are sometimes upheld, while much smaller awards have been overturned, because they were deemed excessive in a particular case.
How Can a Crete, Illinois Attorney Help?
Crete, Illinois's courts have wide discretion in awarding punitive damages. Accordingly, it is unrealistic to comprehensively discuss all the situations in which punitive damages can arise.
If you are located in Crete, Illinois, and are engaged in a case that you think, based on the information conveyed above, that might have punitive damages as an option, you can't be sure what, if anything, you're entitled to from the defendant until you consult with a Crete, Illinois civil litigation attorney

Abstract
Non-motorized transportation increases mobility choices, relieves congestion, promotes local economy, reduces greenhouse gas emission, promotes a healthy lifestyle, and improves quality of life. Recently, there is an emphasis on developing integrated transportation systems with off-road shared use paths and on-road facilities. A majority of highway bridges that are located on the planned or existing non-motorized paths have become bottle-necks for non-motorized traffic. Therefore, there is a need to evaluate the bridges on non-motorized paths to identify safe passage alternatives to non-motorized traffic. The owner agencies need to have access to a methodological process to evaluate a site for the best possible alternatives and develop accurate cost estimates for funding proposals. This report presents case studies, safe passage alternatives for non-motorized traffic across an existing bridge, alternative analysis methodology, analysis process, and a software platform developed to automate the analysis process. Finally, a few examples are presented to demonstrate implementation of the alternative analysis methodology.

It was a different Grammy Awards for a different time. The Covid 19 pandemic derailed the show from its usual late January/ early February broadcast, but The Recording Academy was determined not cancel the 2021 ceremony. What the world got this year something that looked and felt completely different, even if the celebratory spirit was as strong as usual.
Moved from the massive Staples Center in downtown Los Angeles, to the LA Convention Center next door, it was essentially a variety show, with a few award presentations thrown in for good measure. As with the last few years, it was dominated by female pop artists and R&B/hip-hop divas.
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA – MARCH 14: Billie Eilish, winner of the Record of the Year award for ‘Everything I Wanted’ and the Best Song Written for Visual Media award for ‘No Time to Die,’ poses in the media room during thThe Year went to Billie Eilish, for “Everything I Ever Wanted,” and, as many had predicted, Taylor Swift took home Album of The Year for Folklore. Beyonce broke the record for the number of Grammys ever won by a female artist (28) with for Best R&B Performance Grammy awarded to “The Black Parade.” She also received a Grammy for her duet with Megan Thee Stallion. The coveted Best New Artist also went to Megan Thee Stallion, as well as Best Rap Performance.

Although many expecgrateful for her recent success was powerful and right to the point.
The show was peppered with short informational videos of select nominated artists. This was probably done because so many of the new artists were likely unknown to vast US audience watching the show. Although much of the show seemed uneven, there were a number of musical highlights. Harry Styles, who opened the show with a rousing version of “Watermelon Sugar,” ended up winning Best Pop Solo Performance for the song later in the show. Bruno Mars and Anderson Pak paid tribute to the classic 1970s Philly International soul sounds with “Leave That Door Open,” and took home a Grammy.
There were a number of left turns in the show this year. For one, they featured profiles of some of the legendary music venues in the US, including The Station Inn in Nashville, The Apollo in Harlem, and The Troubadour in Los Angeles who were hard it by the pandemic. Having the owner/operators of these venues as presenters was a kind gesture for sure, and one that was totally unexpected.
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA – MARCH 14: (L-R) Taylor Swift and Aaron Dessner accept the Album of the Year award for ‘Folklore’ onstage during the 63rd Annual GRAMMY Awards at Los Angeles Convention Center on March 14, 2021 in Los Angeles, California. (Photo by Kevin Winter/Getty Images for The Recording Academy)
One of the best performance highlights was when Taylor Swift presented her new, acoustic-driven side, with material from Folklore. Her showcase medley of songs from the LP reunited her with the musicians who helped htists such as Billie Eilish, who cleaned up last year with an armful of Grammys, excelled in simple, stripped down settings. Not everyone kept it simple, however. This year’s “it” girl, female pop star Dua Lipa, put on a glitzy performance accented by lots of choreography and laser lights. When she and the dancers stopped and the song (including her vocals) kept going, it was pretty evident she was lip syncing. That’s a shame, because she is an enormously talented singer. Female artists such Dua Lipa, Megan Thee Stallion, and Cardi B presented the most elaborate segments that were big on skimpy outfits and wildly sexual gyrations. There is nothing wrong with being sexy, but these performances were way over the top.
Another strange aspect of this year’s Grammys was the fact it was so clearly aimed at a millennium audience. The vast majority of the artists that appeared on the show were unheard of just a few years ago. Missing were the many legendary artists such as Stevie Wonder, Celine Dion, Elton John, Dolly Parton, Bruce Springsteen and Paul McCartney who have appeared on their own or with younger artists. These familiar faces, with the exception of Lionel Richie, were replaced with powerful tributes to some of the stars we lost including Little Richard, Kenny Rogers, Gerry Marsden, and John Prine. It featured newer stars singing their legendary hits. It was the only time in the show where baby boomers could feel a sense of inclusion. The “death reel” as it has been called in the past, was presented in a new format that combined, photos, historic clips, and the aforementioned tribute performances to those artists and industry icons lost since the Grammy Awards aired in January 2020.

As with most years, there were some upsets. H.E.R. won for Song Of The Year for “I Can’t Breathe” written about the death of George Floyd. She beat out artists such as Beyonce and Taylor Swift. Billie Eilish and her brother Finneas won Best Song Written For Visual Media for their James Bond theme, “No Time To Die.” The fact that movie has still not yet been released shows the impact of Eilish on current Academy voters. With The Foo Fighters holding off the release of their new studio album Medicine At Midnight until last month, made it possible for Fiona Apple to win Best Alternative Music Album, for Fetch The Bolt Cutters.
The pre-telecast awards, now labeled The Premier Ceremony, gave the late John Prine his first two Grammys. He earned Best American Roots Song and Performance for “I Remember Everything.” Blues legend Bobby Rush won Best Traditional Blues Album for his last disc, Rawer Than Raw. Chick Corea, who died just a few weeks ago, won Best Improvised Jazz Solo album with his All Blues. Best R&B Album Of The Year went to John Legend for Bigger Love, and James Taylor, one of the very few baby boomer artists to win, received a Grammy for American Standard the Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album of The Year.

A surprise in the hip-hop world was Best Rap Album won by iconic rapper NAS, for his King Disease album. Premier Ceremony also awarded the Best Rock Album to The Strokes for The New Abnormal. Over 12.6 million viewers watched the Premier Ceremony online during the afternoon; viewership for the Grammy Awards telecast on CBS has yet to be released.

Our local San Juan Outdoor Club sponsored a car camping and hiking trip to Great Basin National Park (thanks again, Susan M). In north east Nevada, the park is a long ways from just about anywhere, but features quite a diversity of good hiking, including a climb of Wheeler Pk, the highest mountain in the Great Basin. So we packed up the car and trekked west for another great outing.

If you ever ask the cops, "What are you going to do, take me to jail?" you pretty much know the answer. And when you're raising hell in a bar at 2 a.m. because your songs didn't come on the jukebox, you're not leaving the cops much choice in the matter.
Florida man Michael Grzech got his answer in handcuffs after bartenders tried to close the bar before Grzech's selections seared the speakers at The Jetty Lounge in Fort Pierce. The only remaining questions? Was Grzech waiting on "Jukebox Hero" or "Closing Time"?
That One Florida Man
Perhaps unluckily for Grzech, there was a police officer in the bar when it was shutting down. According to that officer, Grzech, who appeared intoxicated, "was arguing with the bartenders because his songs didn't get played on the jukebox." Unswayed by both bartenders' contention they didn't control the music and by the officer's request that he leave, Grzech continued arguing and was eventually arrested and booked for trespassing. But not before this classic exchange, as related by Treasure Coast Newspapers:
"What are you going to do, take me to jail?" Grzech is quoted as saying.
The officer said yes.
Grzech, who could be described as a jukebox antihero, turned around and was handcuffed.
A Few Good Florida Men
Grzech's antics of course got us thinking of some other Florida men who've made the news, all within the last year:
Florida Man Arrested for Calling 911 to Help His Grandmother, Who Wasn't Having a Stroke
She was also not at the local Hooters, where Jonathan Clayton Hinkle tried to convince dispatchers to give him a ride. Instead he got a misdemeanor charge.
Florida Man Shoots Neighbor, Drives Dead Body to Lawyer's Office, Doesn't Get Indicted
It sounds like something out of a Carl Hiaasen novel, especially when you learn that the shooting was the result of a scuffle over real estate development.
Florida Man Arrested for Police Parody Twitter Account
Twitter parody accounts are nothing new -- President Donald Trump has over 50. So, what happens to the First Amendment when you're impersonating a department's Public Information Officer?

Comments Off on Dentaverse(TM) enters dental NFT space – the first global web3 community for dental professionals
On the 7 an NFT backed community that will drive innovation on different levels within dentistry.
Brussel, Belgium Jun 24, 2022 – By connecting dental professionals with software engineers, marketing gurus, private equity investors, and business consultants the Dentaverse team aims to join and support those already innovating within the dental profession. Backed by a team of carefully selected dentist ambassadors the Dentaverse project is already creating value for those involved.
The collection consists of 4000 3D animated NFTs that are the product of a collaboration between artists, dentists, and technology experts. The 3D animated NFTs are created by Collation Studio, a world-renowned 3D lab. These unique pieces of art in their own right are then immutably, forever, injected into the Ethereum blockchain via smart contract.
“We are the first in the dental industry to be creating synergies within the dentistry community and web3,” says Martin Ravets (co-founder at Dentaverse). “Developing this project to be distinct in its visual form, we have been focusing on the 3D art down to every little detail, accessory, and cultural reference. Our goal is that by focusing on launching a thoughtful project and community, Dentaverse will be able to make a seamless, harmonious blend of the oncoming metaverse and real dentistry life, to the benefit of people around the globe.”
We connect the Dentaverse community by hosting online and offline events. Dentaverse Club lounges will be available for NFT holders at Dentalia in Brussels, AEEDC in Dubai, IDS in Cologne, ADF in Paris, and GNYDM in New York during 2022 and 2023.
“We have started the journey of bringing an industry that touches each and every person on this planet forward into web3 and trustless technology,” as JSB (co-founder at Dentaverse) puts it. “Our core philosophy at Dentaverse is that we are stronger together. When like-minded individuals from around the world come together there is a foundation for the magic to happen. Or as my communications guru Floris would say: “when preparation meets opportunity, you can create your own luck”. Meaningful interactions lead to luck, both digitally and in real life.
The NFTs consist of multiple different attributes (e.g. lips, teeth, background) which together create the unique characteristics of the artwork. These then exist in a unique universe of their own, giving a distinct theme to each NFT. From nature to traveling and from sports to real art.
All NFTs will be available through dentaverse.io for whitelist mint on Thu Jul 7th, 2022. The public sale will start on the 21st of July 2022 and the reveal is planned during the first live Dentaverse event at the Dentalia exhibition in September 2022 in Brussels, Belgium.

Boyne City Cottage Design
Edgewater Design Group
As written in Northern Home & Cottage by Elizabeth Edwards For years, Jeff and Ellen Miller spent their vacations sailing in Northern Michigan—so they had plenty of time to check out which small harbor town they might like to retire to someday. When that time arrived several years ago, they looked at properties up and down the coast and along inland lakes. When they discovered a sweet piece on the outskirts of Boyne City that included waterfront and a buildable lot, with a garage on it, across the street, they knew they’d found home. The couple figured they could find plans for their dream lake cottage online. After all, they weren’t looking to build anything grandiose. Just a small-to-medium sized contemporary Craftsman. But after an unfruitful online search they gave up, frustrated. Every plan they found had the back of the house facing the water—they needed a blueprint for a home that fronted on the water. The Millers first met the woman, Stephanie Baldwin, Owner & President of Edgewater Design Group, who solved that issue and a number of others on the 2015 Northern Home & Cottage Petoskey Area Home Tour. Baldwin’s home that year was a smart, 2000-square cottage on Crooked Lake with simple lines and a Craftsman sensibility. That home proved to the couple that Edgewater Design Group is as proficient at small homes as the larger ones they are often known for. Edgewater Design Group did indeed come up with the perfect plan for the Millers. At 2400 square feet, the simple Craftsman with its 3 bedrooms, vaulted ceiling in the great room and upstairs deck is everything the Millers wanted—including the fact that construction stayed within their budget. An extra courtesy of working with the talented design team is a screened in porch facing the lake (“She told us, of course you have to have a screened in porch,” Ellen says. “And we love it!’) Edgewater’s other touches are more subtle. The Millers wanted to keep the garage, but the home needed to be sited on a small knoll some feet away in order to capture the views of Lake Charlevoix across the street. The solution is a covered walkway and steps that are so artful they enhance the home. Another favor Baldwin did for them was to connect them with Legacy Construction, a firm known for its craftsmanship and attention to detail. The Miller home, outfitted with touches including custom molding, cherry cabinetry, a stunning custom range hood, built in shelving and custom vanities. A warm hickory floor and lovely earth-toned Craftsman-style color palette pull it all together, while a fireplace mantel hewn from a tree taken on the property rounds out this gracious lake cottage.

Modern Craftsman Style Upd element that links two floors – it can also help define your style, make a statement, and turn your entryway into a grand entrance. There are a growing range of materials and staircase designs to cater to your personal style and the size of your space. Here are some quick tips to consider while browsing images of arts and crafts staircase designs on Houzz.
What type of staircase works best for me?
The first consideration when planning a stair design is space. A double-sided staircase, for instance, will only work in a large area; whereas an L-shaped staircase or straight staircase are more compact options. The next step in the stair design is deciding on a style. Elliptical or curved stairs offer elegance, while spiral stairs can appear more urban. If you want a contemporary design, floating stairs are a great way to circulate light.
What balustrade and handrail options are available?
Balustrades and handrails are important for safety but also allow you to get creative with your stair design. Many staircases are built up against a wall – if that’s the case, the wall itself can act as a balustrade; it will just need an attached handrail. Glass balustrades are great if you want to show off your staircase as an architectural feature, whereas a timber balustrade tends to be a more timeless option. Metal balustrades are versatile in that they can be industrial, elegant or quirky. Consider functionality, too, especially if you have kids. An open railing, for instance could become a safety hazard.
What type of material should I use for stair treads?
Timber stair treads are strong and timeless, but aren’t suited to those with indoor pets as they’ll show up scuffs. Carpeted or stone stair treads are more traditional options, whereas stainless steel and glass can be quite contemporary. Concrete stair treads are increasingly popular for those looking to create a sculptural masterpiece out of their staircase – just imagine the effect of floating concrete stairs, daringly cantilevered. Also consider using a combination of materials to create visual interest.

Posted byRussian_Village July 23, 2012 Leave a comment on Russian Stocks Plunge on Eurozone Worries
The Russian ruble and stocks sank further at the end of trade on the MICEX-RTS Exchange on Monday, as investors cut exposure to risky assets amid deepening concern over Spain and the prospects for the eurozone.
As of 6:00 p.m. Moscow time (14:00 GMT), the Russian ruble extended further losses against major world currencies, plummeting by 70 kopecks against the greenback to 32.74 and by 60 kopecks against the euro to 39.59.
Russia’s ruble-denominated MICEX stock index sank by 3.09 percent to 1,371.58 points while the dollar-denominated RTS plunged by 5.13 percent to 1,319.58 points.
The Russian markets sagged in response to negative news from Europe, where the yields on Spanish government 10-year bonds hit a new euro-era high of 7.5 percent on Monday on fears that one of the eurozone’s biggest economies might seek a full-blown sovereign bailout.
The European markets were depressed by the reports that U.S. rating agency Egan-Jones had cut its rating on Spain for the sixth time since mid-April, rating it at double-C-plus from triple-C-plus.
“In addition to the expected austerity riots, the latest news is that Valencia and other regions will need $15 billion of aid, the senior debtholders of the weak banks will be forced to take losses and there might be some sharing of losses among all banks,” Egan-Jones said in a statement.

To illustrate the effect of choosing All Words, Any Words or Exact Phrase on your keyword(s) search, we will use the example archaeological impact assessment as the keywords being searched.
Look For options:
All Words (about 4100) – this option will return documents that must contain all of the keywords entered, but they can appear individually anywhere in the document, i.e. not together like a phrase. Using our example, archaeological impact assessment, you will receive documents that contain each of the three words anywhere in the document and not necessarily together.
Any Words (about 47,000) – this option will return documents that contain one or more of the keywords entered. Using our example, archaeological impact assessment, you will receive documents that contain just the word “archaeological” and documents that contain just the word “impact” and documents that contain just the word “assessment” and documents that contain 2 of the words and documents that all 3 of the words, but not necessarily together. This option will return the most search results of the three options.
Exact Phrase (about 730) – this option will return documents that contain all the keywords entered in the order in which they were entered, as in a phrase. For example, if you entered the words “archaeological impact assessment”, the search would result in documents that contained that exact phrase. This option will yield the least amount of search results, compared to Any Words or All Words.
Note that REGDOCS uses the Exact Phrase option as its default search when you are using the search bar on any of the other web pages and when you click on Alternate Results you will be presented with documents that are like the “All Words” option above.

He spends his life solving puzzles. Now facing an incompetent sheriff, can he solve the murder and avoid the hangman’s noose?
1763. Eighty years of skirmishes along the controversial Pennsylvania & Maryland border. Charles Mason and Jeremiah Dixon arrive with the latest 18th-century technology for their ground-breaking survey. Native tribes contest it. Both colonies challenge it. No matter how accurate the result, one side will not accept it.
Angus MacKay, their eager assistant, arrives amid the massacre of the Conestoga, a native tribe. He is plunged into intrigue as their mission is sabotaged. Suddenly, Angus trips over a dead body, and the incompetent sheriff would like nothing more than to arrest Angus for the murder. It’s a hanging offense. Suddenly, the game changes from defining a line on the ground to defining the line between good and evil.
Travel back in time to colonial America in the 18th century with suspects galore: native tribes, locals spying on each other, even a gun-toting minister. Death on the Line is Book 1 in The MacKay Mysteries, a murder mystery series full of historical events and real people.
A family secret. Two dead bodies. The penalty for murder is death.
The year is 1768. Angus MacKay returns to London after five years in the American colonies. He returns home full of hope for the future, but his lack of education soon leaves his dreams shattered. He discovers you can never go home again.
Yearning to prove his worth, Angus heads north to Scotland, to a home torn apart by rebellion, and is catapulted into intrigue. Killers often strike again, and the body count is rising.
Secrets are dangerous, testing loyalties and family ties. It seems everyone has a motive. Can Angus make sense of it all? With his life on the line, the stakes have never been higher.
Travel to the Scottish Highlands in the 18th century. Escape to a land rich in folk traditions and superstitious locals. Secret of the Old Tower is book 2 in the Mackay Mysteries, a historical fiction murder mystery series.
What people are saying: “The intricacy where the history and folklore were woven made for a great ambiance and enhanced the book. It rang of Into the Wilderness and had a protagonist just as relatable and realistic.” Amazon Reviewer
Editorial reviews for Death on the Line
“The author’s portrayal of 18th-century America is a delight. Through Angus’ eyes, readers feel the fresh wonder of early settlement—the hard work and boundless opportunities; the conflicts and injustices.” – Kirkus Reviews
“History buffs are going to love this one, but they’re not the only ones. Amorosi combines factual inspiration with her own inventive storytelling to create this thrilling historical murder mystery.” – Independent Book Review

Winter has been tough for many of us already, and parts of the U.S. are now somehow being hit by a Bomb Cyclone, whatever that is.
I actually like winter at times, but there are certain aspects of the cold weather that I loathe.
The worst aspects are certainly the dangers caused by the frigid temperatures, slippery snow and these terrible storms. In addition, though, there are several other items that cause numerous annoyances for our judges, so we have put together the Top 5 Winter Annoyances (not counting the cold).
First, a few honorable mentions:
Chunks of ice/snow/mud/rocks that hang off of your car – These chunks are ugly and can get in the way of the tires. They can be fun to kick, but if it is too cold outside they just hurt your feet when you kick them. Our judges hate that.
Dry skin – My hands won’t feel right again until May, and I get tired of them bleeding so easily whenever I bump into anything.
High gas bills – I don’t even want to look at the next gas bill. Uggg.
Sweater collars – I love sweaters and want to wear them in the cold weather, but I have no idea if the high collars are supposed to be up or folded down. It usually doesn’t matter, though, because I can’t get them to stay one way or another anyway. It just adds to my winter look, though, which brings us to No. 5.
5. My hair at work – It is too cold to not wear a hat, so when I leave for work in the morning with perfectly brushed hair that is still wet, I put on a hat and ruin my hair. When I arrive at work, even if I get my hair wet again, it looks terrible for the rest of the day. I realize it’s not the biggest problem people face with winter, but it causes me much distress. I often will go without a hat because I am so vain, but when it’s this cold I have to wear a hat. I would wear the hat all day at work if I could.
4. Defrosting my car – When it is as frigid as it has been, I find myself standing outside in the cold for way too long chipping away at the ice while my hair freezes into a terrible style. This morning, I had frost on the inside of my car windshield, too, so I also had to spend time defrosting the inside, which naturally led to me bumping my hand and causing it to bleed again. Uggg.
3. Weather terms like “bomb cyclone” – Where do they come up with these names? Each year we have a new giant storm that no one has ever heard of before and it gets a ton of attention, usually from TV reporters who love standing outside in storms. What’s next? Snownadoes? Cloudquakes? Lightning bolts that are made out of snow?
2. My nose running all day – Just to add to my look of messed up hair and confused sweater collars, I also have a runny nose most of the day at work now. It’s always at the worst when I come in from outside and have to greet someone. Do I have time to wipe my nose? What if this person wants to shake my hand? Can I use my sweater collar for this?
1. Tracking snow everywhere inside– It doesn’t matter how many times I stomp my feet, kick at the snow or drag my feet on rugs, the water and snow somehow sticks to my shoes so that it gets all over the inside of my house and office. And if I’m anywhere in public, I am often slipping on the snow that everyone else is tracking inside, too, while they also wipe their noses and then grab door handles or grocery carts. I would prefer to go back to bed until April.

Especially since I’ve been cold all day 😊

Well done list, I agree on all points and that’s why I moved away from the cold! One thing I didn’t escape though was the dry skin, and static electricity. Argh.

Good post and comments, showing the depth and breadth of winter annoyances. Here is my humble offering: Getting the faucets to drip properly within a reasonable time frame (like less than an hour)and don’t forget to fill up a pitcher unless you want to do it again.
Go Panthers.

Thanks Kenny, and your additions are perfect. I have been doing the same thing with the faucets here trying to keep them from freezing again, and we do have water jugs filled now. And Go Panthers, it should be a fun weekend for football.

I also would like to add the annoyance of losing a favorite article of winter gear. Where, oh where, little mitten, did you go? Will I ever see you again? No answer. Sigh…I might need a new pair to pin to my coat sleeves.

Thanks! And I agree. Why is it so difficult to find a matching mitten or glove? That is a good annoyance. We have so many single gloves and mittens. Thanks again!

University of Guelph marketing and consumer studies professor Karen Finlay and her colleagues have received $500,000 from the Ontario Problem Gambling Research Centre to continue researching the effect casino design has on gambling behaviour.
The research team, which has previously conducted studies using video images of casinos, will use a virtual-reality simulation unit to examine the role casino “runways” have on a gambler’s willingness to play beyond the level they initially intend to.
“The term ‘runway’ describes the area right before you enter the casino,” says Finlay, who’s working on this project with psychology professor Harvey Marmurek and Profs. Jane Londerville and Vinay Kanetkar of the Department of Marketing and Consumer Studies. “In Las Vegas, designers are paying attention to this ‘runway’ area by using specialized design elements like sights and sounds that are intended to put people into states of different emotional arousal or excitement. We’re trying to determine the effect this area has on gamblers and their gambling behaviour.”
The first year of the three-year project will involve refining software and shooting video images which will be programmed into the virtual-reality unit for testing in 2007, said Finlay. The unit will incorporate a set of eyeglasses and a glove along with an actual slot machine. The team will transport the system to gambling communities to collect data. Respondents will play the slot machine while viewing a gambling setting in 3-D format.
“We’re trying to get as close to reality as we can,” said Finlay. “Among other things, we’re interested in studying whether a changes in gambling setting or the emotions it induces changes a gambler’s plans.”
They will also explore the use of “soft fascinations” or images that people will be involuntarily drawn to look at which reduce the anxiety that concentrated gambling can create. An example of a soft fascination is a child bouncing a ball or playing with a puppy, although Finlay plans to use different images, including a Japanese garden.
“These soft fascinations may provide gamblers with a mental break and the ability to refocus their gambling behaviour in a more responsible way,” she said. “It’s believed that gamblers who are given such an opportunity won’t continue behaviours like thinking the machine will pay out because it hasn’t paid out for a long time or chasing their losses.”
The researchers hypothesize that, if people are restored psychologically, they’ll make better decisions about their gambling. “Gambling is a very directed activity,” said Finlay. “While gambling, your attention span can wear out and you can become cognitively fatigued and behave less responsibly than you should.”
This team of researchers has been studying the role personality and environment play in problem gambling in hopes that their work may eventually be used in public education, to promote awareness among policy-makers and for clinical treatment plans for problem gamblers.
In 2003, they concluded that the busier the casino in terms of noise, colours, lights and people, the more likely both problem and non-problem gamblers are to take a chance. Based on this discovery, the researchers believe designing casinos with rooms containing comforting, natural, yet limited stimuli for problem gamblers could help control their over-the-top impulses.

The Nightmare of Ashihama, as it's known, introduces "never-before-seen" combat mechanics to the beloved MMO that encourage players to band together and take this beast down as a team.</p><p>If you're feeling especially brave, you'll find the Nightmare in the catacombs of the Sisterhood Sanctuary in Morytania. Up to 80 players can engage in combat with it at any given time, and the difficulty will scale as the team grows in size. Thankfully, taking down the boss won't result in a panicked rush for loot, as all players will receive their own special reward for helping out.</p><p>Late last year, the Nightmare was put to a player poll, and it passed "with flying colours". All told, 45,000 votes were counted with 90% approving its addition to the game. "Empowering our community to have a say in the game's content, through polls such as this, is hugely important to us as a development team and we can't wait for players to team up and tackle the Nightmare today", said Rob Hendry, Executive Producer on Old School is now the place to go for PvM gameplay, with the Nightmare of Ashihama joining the high-level Theatre of Blood raid and crypt-raiding 'Barrows' combat encounter.</p><p>As Old School RuneScape's seventh anniversary approaches, it's impressive to hear that this last year has been one of the best yet for the long-running MMO. In 2019, the game enjoyed its highest-ever daily active player numbers and achieved more than 8 million installs across mobile platforms.</p><p>It's an incredibly easy recommendation for fans of the genre, and ex-Ed Harry agrees in his glowing review of the game from launch.</p><p>If you want to get involved, you'll find Old School RuneScape available for download from both the App Store and Google Play.</p>On the lookout for your next favourite RPG? Here are 25 of the best on Android

"Almost everybody sent him some little present to help out the furnishing of the house. When the Russells came into it they were well-to-do and furnished it real handsome, as you can see; but the first furniture that went into it was plain enough. This little house was rich in love, though. The women sent in quilts and tablecloths and towels, and one man made a chest for her, and another a table and so on. Even blind old Aunt Margaret Boyd wove a little basket for her out of the sweet-scented sand-hill grass. The schoolmaster's wife used it for years to keep her handkerchiefs in.�

Brexit Cinema: Dunkirk, 1917 And The Myth Of Britain’s “Good” Empire
by An Sionnach Fionn
March 12, 2020
Research by the polling company YouGov has found that over two-thirds of people in Britain believe that the country’s former empire was either something to be proud of or was something to be neither proud or ashamed of. Only a small minority were of the opinion that the British Empire was something to be ashamed of. And while the headline figure in the UK was exceeded by a greater number in Belgium who expressed no regret over the existence of its empire the British results match previous polling on the controversial subject of colonialism. Indeed, to make matters worse, the present survey found that a majority of Britons were convinced that colonialism was better for the countries that had been colonised or that it had made no difference to their development. Only 17% of those questioned believed that colonialism had made the colonised worse off. Which is a dismal statistic.
As many commentators have observed, since the Brexit referendum of 2016 there has been a marked growth in revanchist sentiment in Britain. This has been reflected in British popular culture over the last four years with movies like Dunkirk and 1917 delivering a subliminal nationalist message to audiences at home and in the so-called “Anglosphere”. The latter film in particular, with its careful use of regional British (and Irish) accents and multiracial extras in certain scenes, contrasting with the more uniform appearance of the European enemy, is hardly subtle about the supposed modern parallels it is making. This of course obscures the fact that the British Imperial Forces that faced off against their German rivals ioppressed and helpless peoples. Which feeds into the British myth of a nation that played the historical role of armed liberator rather than the historical role of armed occupier.

Those wicked, wicked Brits and their evil Anglosphere: when you control the language you control the debate.

No you really don’t. For one thing nobody truly controls any language: They evolve. For another thing, the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis is pretty discredited. Language does not “control” human thought, let alone the terms of debate. In the case of Brexe even though a Russian has a distinct word for them that you lack as an English speaker (Do you speak any other languages? I know three.), you have to be skeptical of the idea that other thought or debates ared took slaves where else did they get their beloved St Patrick from….Its so easy to ‘forget’ he was British and taken to Ireland as a slave
Dunkirk was a major and fully acknowledged British defeat what drives some Irish people mad is the fact that the British are not ashamed of Dunkirk
The first world war was a white peoples war It was also a stupid war but realistically so are most wars
What today is called the internet didn’t exist until after World War 2 and the first computer was invented in England by an Englishman.
The British are proud of their history with good reason, a small island under continual attack from another small island took it all fought back, won…Gave the world their language, culture, religion andd industry…
And, where ever the British went the Irish followed stole land from the indigenous population and killed anyone who tried to stop them.
How wonderful it must be to be deaf, dumb and blind to facts

Celtic tribes fighting each other in prehistory has nothing to do with Ireland, (part of) which has not existed as an independent state until 1922. It has nothing to do with the English as ye were at home in German Saxony and Northern Holland at the time. The English evil empire genocided 200 million people starting and finishing with the native Celts of these islands. As for the uncle Toms going on about Irish “participation” in the empire- black and brown subjects of the empire participated too- hunger will make you join the oppressor. Jews aided the SS at death camps so does Israel bear responsibility for the Holocaust? Try using logic

It might be possible to find a few Celts in England, Scotland and Wales but its very unlikely they would be found in Ireland since about ten years ago Dublin confirmed that Irish DNA is the same as European DNA.
Where you got the 200 million from is anyone’s guess its not a fact or historically proven and the Irish have killed more Irish people than the English would bother with. Hunger? the famine in Ireland lasted a few years but being Irish means you can dine off it and blame the English forever.
Of course Jews ;helped’ the Nazis so did everyone in Nazi held countries

For one thing, when you talk of WW2 “The Allies” are called “The Allies” with good reason. Hitler probably couldn’t have been defeated without the cooperation of all the allied countries. Nobody was unimportant. Some countries had more wealth or manpower, but the axis could not have been brought down without unity.
Secondly, you obviously understand very, very little about Irish people who left The Commonwealth Realms. In the US Irish were one of the least likely ethnic groups to buy farms or land. The Great Famine left many Irish less than eager to go in that direction, and most of them didn’t have the resources or timing for it. In the US Irish gravitated to industrial jobs, trade jobs, police force and firefighting etc. In the US the Civil War would have likely been more prolonged and bloodier without The Irish people.
Also you forget the Irish of The Spanish speaking world. Bernardo O’Higgins was not just Washington/De Valera of Chile, but also fought with Bolivar earlier on. That movement had many people of indigenous origins.

“Rule Britannia: Brexit and the End of Empire “an excellent book worth a read, Danny Dorling and Sally Tomlinson argue that the vote to leave the EU was the last gasp of the old empire working its way out of the British psyche. Fuelled by a misplaced nostalgia, the result was driven by a lack of knowledge of Britain s imperial history. They also state that the racist eugenics of the 19th century and early 20th century remains influential today. ‘It is not hard to find’, they write, ‘a direct line from Galton’s beliefs in the advantages of selective breeding of humans through to selective schooling today, where “better” children are kept carefully away from other children, so they will not only not learn together but also not mix socially and, later, not breed together’.

War movies are the biggest Rorschach test known to man. People have a tendency to take from them what they brought with them, rather than what the director intended. Long before being exposed to any theory along those lines, I was able to figure this out just by watching my peers. I remember once listening to Oliver Stone being interviewed and thinking, “Poor Man. The effect he thinks his movies Platoon and Born on The Fourth of July have on people, and how they really do effect some people- especially some kids- are two different things.” I haven’t actually watched 1917, for reasons discussed below.
Francois Truffaut was at least rumored to have said “There are no anti-war, war movies.” Whether he really said that or not, it’s pretty clear that any war movie is only anti-war to people who are already predisposed towards that interpretation walking into the theater. At one point Clinton Eastwood made a claim that “All war movies are anti-war, if they are from the POV of the common soldier.” I’ve never been convinced of that myself. (Personally any time I see a shot of a soldier with messed up glasses, that makes me lean against the idea war is romantic, but that’s just me!!!)
I did one have a time convincing an African American millenial of the significance the USSR/Russia had in defeating The Third Reich. After going in circles where he would accept that Russia accepted horrible loses but that didn’t mean they had much of a role in actually taking down Hitler. At the point where I was sort of getting annoyed he said, “What you are saying is that only White People can defeat other White People. Russia and Germany are all white countries. The US and UK are more diverse, so you make it sound like they just couldn’t defeat the Germans because of it.” So obviously there could be some people who read a “Benign British Empire” into making WWI British Troops more diverse than the Germans. However it’s my understanding that there were Indian Troops, Caribbeans and people from other colonies in The British Empire during WWI.
In the end I would probably fear glorification of war more than glorification of The British Empire. The British Empire is never coming back.

1917 is a masterful film. It truly is thrilling, shocking, and incredibly well done. At least in the first 30 mins or so and in several scenes thereafter.
But it’s not hard to detect the “myth” dictating the narrative, and the artistic choices made. In fact it is glaringly obvious. The UK vs EU analogue is there but so are many others.
In all honesty, it is a UKIP Brexiteer wet dream of a movie. Probably only disturbed by the presence of a multiethnic cast in some scenes.
One scene in particular, set on a truck, is so clearly artificial in nature, so clearly contrived, that it borders on insulting.
Yes, the UK forces used multiracial imperial levies in Europe. But it was overwhelmingly an English affair. And the races most certainly did not mix in the easy manner portrayed in the film.
Accounts of what really happened are plentiful. The whole thing was a carefully crafted lie. For people who probably oppose Brexit but who are raised on the myths that gave it birth. And so reflect them in their own art.

If I were a movie director, I would probably have serious reservations about making a war movie or not make one at all. One brutal reality: Stuff that would leave me thinking war is a terrible thing that should only be done as extreme last resort, can have other people Jonesing to sign up and join the infantry.
That’s thing about a lot of war movies. Sometimes the same film can be anti-war or anti-war. I’m willing to bet people could take Remain as well as leave message from 1917, as the EU seems to have prevented more European conflicts. I remember first watching “Platoon”. My father actually forced me and my brother to watch it as a punishment!!!!! We got into a fist fight over whether the US should have gotten into the Vietnam War, so he forced us both to watch the film with no bathroom breaks, no snacks, and no looking away from the screen, covering or closing our eyes or anything. It wasn’t long before I figured out that half the kids in my class who had seen it all wanted to join the infantry. Those who didn’t often took the message that you should never, ever, ever say the Vietnam War was wrong because to do so was “harming Vietnam Vets” who had “suffered enough”.
I might see 1917 if it’s still in theaters when the coronavirus blows over. War movies often make me a little skeptical…..and I’m not alone in this.

I think it would be hard to get a “Remain” impression out if the movie. It doesn’t play that way. There’s no scene of British and German soldiers realising the futility of their enmity, or some scene for deeper thought. Yes, war is terrible. The movie admits that. But… Look at the heroics of it too, the brave Tommy vs the ghastly Hun. It’s a Remainers vision of WWI but perverted by modern British mythology.

That’s exactly how war movies can be such tricky things. To your lights some expression of German remorse at the war would be required to support a Remainer vision of WWI. However, I can tell you “Platoon” has no references to anti-war movements, activists, or coherent political opposition to the Vietnam War-let alone spitting. Yet several of my classmates came out of the movie Platoon with a conclusion that “If the government decides to have a war, you should support the troops and don’t say anything if you think maybe the war is wrong. If you oppose the war people are going to start spitting on the returning soldiers again. Look at the movie they’ve already been through enough. How can you let them get spat on coming home.” To a lesser extent some managed to take that message from “Born on The Fourth of July” despite that fact that the main character became an anti-war activist.
Heck the real Ron Kovic was a Marine served at a similar time and in a similar area to another Marine who came back from the war as a Class-A war mongering hawk. To some degree that’s culture at play. Kovic was a Catholic from fundamentally liberal New York and the other who became such a hawk was raised a “Southern boy”.
How does this happen if the movie has no such message? Because they were exposed to such notions in the greater culture, that’s how. If you are an English Remainer who strongly believes that the EU deserves a significant part to most of the credit for Europe avoiding major wars of this kind, and are disposed to take an anti-war message from a “grunts in the trenches film” you probably don’t need a scene of German soldier waxing philosophical about the pointlessness of war. You are going to look at 1917 and even Dunkirk and think “Good God!! What were those Brexiteers thinking?!!?! We need the EU so nothing like this happens again!!”
It’s true that different cultural contexts matter. I’ve watched how these things work with regards to war movies, Dolchstosslegende, and why people from different walks of life support and oppose wars that their country didn’t really have to fight…..well most of my life!!!
It’s a very, very strange often unpredictable thing in my experience.

Britain really is not like Europe: it really isn’t.
In the grand abstract terms of the Enlightenment, the legitimacy of government derives from the consent of the governed: the result of two centuries of political struggle for the rights and liberties of ordinary citizens and of governance “of the people, by the people and for the people.” The Anglo-Saxon tradition of liberal democracy, hammered out in the United Kingdom after 1688 and the United States after 1776.
But in the formative years of the American colonies it was freedoms for only one sort of people: for the blacks and the indigenous in America there was only slavery and genocide: for ironically the US was founded on, and derived its wealth from, slavery, land theft and genocide. The ‘founding freedoms’ were in many respects the freedom to pursue these goals without interference.
The concept of ‘terra nullius’ was used to justify land theft on a continent-wide scale: those whose land which was stolen didn’t become citizens until 1924. The 1763 Royal Proclamation drew a boundary along the Appalachian Mountains which forbade settlers stealing any more land to the West of the line. This, together with “writs of assistance” was one of the major causes of the War of Independence.
While slavery was never legal in GB (Ref. the Somerset case 1772), it was the basis of the North Atlantic economy, with New England providing the goods and services for the American tobacco and West Indian sugar plantations: we the British fuelling the whole lot by operating the Golden Triangle slave route, which was finally run through companies in London and Liverpool: the Scots dominating the slave plantations of the West Indies but also heavily investing in the Triangle from companies in London.
The failed 1690’s colonisation scheme of the Isthmus of Panama on the Gulf of Darién which bankrupted parts of Scotland was an attempt by the Kingdom of Scotland to become a world trading nation and was the driver for the 1707 Acts of Union. The Scottish landed aristocracy and mercantile class saw that their best chance of being part of a major trading power would be to share in the growth of the English Empire and that Scotland’s future would lie in Union. Much is made of Scottish influence in the United States Declaration of Independence but a major driver of Scottish involvement was the fact that the English had cut them out of the Golden Triangle slave trade; instead, allowing them to control the more onerous West Indian slave plantations: they wanted a bigger slice of the blackbird pie.
The terms “American” and “British” were at that time in the process of being formulated. “Writs of Assistance” were another cause of discontent: “the rights of Englishmen” were the perceived traditional rights of English and British subjects. Many of the colonists argued that their traditional rights as Englishmen were being violated. This subsequently became another of the primary justifications for the American Revolution of 1775. The American Revolution is better understood as the Fourth English Civil War and the Virginia born Englishman George Washington, in common with the Connecticut born Englishman Benedict Arnold, served both sides at one time or another; GW displaying the better judgement in choosing the winning one. Initially, the rebels wished that if they were to be taxed they should have representation in the Westminster Parliament, something that Britain with its recent history of republican civil war could not risk. The old aristocratic society and the army suffered a defeat from which they never fully recovered and power passed to the middle classes; the merchants and industrialists of the emerging Industrial Revolution who went on to create the empire with which Britain will be always be associated.
After the American Revolution, Horace Walpole stated that a new chapter had been opened in the history of their country; what America would now become it was impossible to say but that a new nation had been born and that the old world by its creation had been changed forever.
And changed it was: historian Alan Macfarlane argues that England never had a peasantry in the way that other European countries did, or as extensive an established church, or as powerful a monarchy. English society thus had a more individualistic cast than the rest of Europe which was centralised, hierarchical and feudal; and sowed the seeds of our constitutional conflict with the EU of today
It was the most individualistic elements of English society; the most liberal fringe of English political thought, the Whig and Republican theorists such as James Harrington who came to predominate. The liberal tradition of Edward Coke, John Hampden, James Harrington, Algernon Sidney, John Milton, John Locke, Pitt the Elder, Edmund Burke, Earl Grey, Viscount Palmerston, Richard Cobden, John Bright and of Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson.
All of this made America an outlier compared with England, which was an outlier compared with Europe. The US was the offspring of English liberalism and carried it out to its logical conclusion to become the freest and most liberal country ever known to man.
Of course the conflict did not end at Yorktown. It continued with The War of 1812: a 32-month military conflict between the United States of America and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, together with its North American colonies and its American Indian allies. The outcome resolved many issues which remained from the American War of Independence, but involved no boundary changes. The United States declared war against Britain in 1812 for several reasons, including trade restrictions brought about by Britain’s continuing war with France, the impressment of American merchant sailors into the Royal Navy, British support of American Indian tribes against American expansion, outrage over perceived insults to US national honour after humiliations on the high seas, and American interest in annexing British North American territory (part of modern-day Canada) which had been denied to them in the settlement ending the American Revolutionary War.
47 years later in 1861 the American Civil War began: many historians regard Gettysburg as the deciding battle of the English Civil War which began in 1642.
But if the Confederacy lost the war; it won the peace: the Jim Crow laws began to be enacted in 1876 and only came to an end in 1965.

It’s just a bad history Seamus he’s invoking. England has a long history of “saying itself out” of European institutions and wanting back in a few generations later.
His understanding of The American Revolution, antebellum US and its Civil War is so wrong about almost everything, I don’t know where to start. He probably doesn’t intend this, but many of his arguments remind me of The Confederate Flag Wavers who compare Poor Old Abe to Oliver Cromwell!!!!!
These American conflicts and problems didn’t have that much in common with the English Civil War. And until an initially fringe reparation movement started everyone agreed that the slave plantation economy was on the whole and despite the wealth of a few a crappier economy than the USSR. To me it’s bizarre to see liberals using arguments that originally belonged to Confederate Flag Fanatics.

You are wrong about a number of counts.
First of all, in the antebellum US the Free North was economically Light Years ahead of The South where slavery was common. Slavery did make small minority very rich, but for the average person living in that economy it was extreme poverty. While abolitionism in the US, like in many countries at that time with active abolitionist movements, was very much a movement that centered moral arguments to a degree that would be hard to imagine in our more cynical times., make no mistake about it’s economic consensus. Nearly all US abolitionists believed that an economy with only free labor was superior to that of a slave economy, and with good reason. The North who on top of industry had a massive and more modern agriculture economy based on wheat, hay, corn, potatoes, cattle, apples, and more. The North had more railroads, more libraries, more schools, more modern cities and so on. During the US Civil War Irishmen fighting for the Union probably outnumbered the ones in the Confederate Army somewhere in the neighborhood of 4 to 1 and possibly as high as 7 to 1. However Irishmen were noted for “standing out less” in the Confederate Army because their heights were more typical of lower ranked Confederate Soldiers!!!! Since most of them would have been children during The Famine, this isn’t saying anything good about how much poor whites actually lived!!!!!
Frederick Douglas a former slave believed the free North to be a better society for the economy. He had escaped expecting the North to be poorer with no slaves but found to his “great surprise” that the reverse was true. When he had his first close male friend as a free man(after marrying the woman who helped him escape!!!!!!), it was with a factory foreman. Douglas noticed that his friend a black factory foreman could afford books and luxuries that 80% of slave owners could not dream of. Until his dying days he maintained that while the slave was obviously the biggest victim of that system it was ultimately bad for the large majority of free-people as well. Generations of American economists have in the large majority concurred. Until there was a movement for reparations, the only people who defended slavery as an economic system were Confederate flag wavers.
Early in The American Revolution the “free-states” by the time of Civil War had at least initiated programs to phase out slavery before The US Constitution was written. Pennsylvania the first state to start a program to phase out slavery, passed the law a full 15 months before Washington defeated Cornwallis at Yorktown. The question of slavery was the most divisive one among the Framers of the Constitution. While proslavery factions got some of what they wanted the anti-slavery faction managed to keep them stating slavery holding is a long term property right or even using the word versus “enslaved person”. Many of the anti-slavery people believed that having won those victories they could contain slavery and it would die out.
Also trying to link The American Revolution and Civil War with the English Civil War is even worse nonsense. For one thing US Independence from Britain was somewhat interdependent with the Revolutions of nations like Haiti, Mexico, Peru, Chile, Ecuador, and company. Also the US Founders sought to fill the US Constitution with safeguards against a man like Oliver Cromwell rising. The biggest thing they chose was a trias politica with a powerful Supreme Court and Judicial System, a President who isn’t that powerful as executive Presidencies go, and a Congress that has many, many immunities and protects. For example when Johnson prorogued Parliament many Americans who watched the news were shocked he could actually do that. Congress can only end its own session. The President can call an emergency session but all he can do about ending a Congressional session is under “extraordinary circumstances” broker a Compromise between factions in Congress on the matter. Schools in the US are almost as negative about Oliver Cromwell than the ones in the Irish Republic, albeit for different reasons. The US schools actually focus on Cromwell’s “horribleness” in England and teach the kids about how Cromwell is the “Father to All Modern Tyrants” and how much of the Constitution was written to prevent a man like him from coming to power.
The Revolutionaries and Constitutional Framers of the US would have also had a low opinion of Edmund Burke, John Locke and many many of the other English thinkers you mentioned. They also had a low opinion of Adam Smith and opted for a mixed economy. Furthermore they didn’t believe in political parties at all. They had originally wanted to create a Republic with no political parties at all. When humans loved their heuristics too much for that, terms like “whig” came back into use but meant different things. When Abraham Lincoln called himself a believer in the “whig system” that would have meant “supporter of a mixed economy” in today’s terms. Not at all what it meant in Britain.
Nor was the American Revolution all about English liberalism. The ideas of French and German thinkers were also important. Montesquieu invented the idea of Separations of Powers-an idea central to US government but largely rejected by Britain.
You are also wrong about a good deal more than I have room for here. However, comparing The English Civil War to the American Revolution is ridiculous.

Dáithíerix’ adventures in Faragium
All is quiet in the small Hibernian village of Tír na nÓg. All Hibernia is under Roman control except for the one small village of Tír na nÓg whose inhabitants are made invincibly strong by a magic poitín brewed by the druid Fintanobollix.
Centurion Brexit Bonus – commander of the Roman garrison of the fortified camp of Dubhlinnium – sends a transvestite Roman spy called Gayleon into the village to discover the secret of their great strength. The spy’s identity is revealed when he loses his false ronnie, shortly after discovering the existence of the magic poitín – whereupon he escapes and reports his discovery to Brexit Bonus.
Brexit Bonus – hoping to overthrow the Roman tyrant Bibulous Junker – orders Fintanobollix captured and interrogated for the recipe – but to no avail. The warrior Dáithíerix learns of Fintanobollix’s capture and infiltrates the Roman camp in a dung cart and hears Brexit Bonus revealing his intended rebellion to Monstrus Selmayronicus his second-in-command.
Following Dáithíerix’ suggestion – Fintanobollix pretends to hand over the secret of the poitín but demands a difficult ingredient – Gur Cake. Whilst Brexit Bonus’ soldiers try to find a gurrier – Dáithíerix and Fintanobollix relax and when the cake arrives eats it all and consoles Brexit Bonus that the poitín may be made without it after all. The ingredients are finally found but a potion is prepared that causes all the hair of the drinker to grow at an accelerated pace.
The Romans are tricked into drinking this potion and before long all of them have long hair and beards. When Brexit Bonus pleads with Fintanobollix to make an antidote, the druid makes a cauldron of fake potion – and also prepares the real magic poitín for Dáithíerix.
.
As Fintanobollix and Dáithíerix escape they are stopped by a huge army of Roman reinforcements commanded by Bibulous Junker. Upon meeting Dáithíerix and Fintanobollix, Bibulous Junker hears of Brexit Bonus’ intentions against himself and deports Brexit Bonus and his garrison to Londinium and frees Dáithíerix and Fintanobollix for giving him the information but reminding them that they are still enemies.
Fintanobollix and Dáithíerix return to their village where they celebrate victory with poitín all round.

Dáithíerix the Gael’s adventures in Britannia:
After an unsuccessful rebellion in Britannia led by Queen Boudathatchica the Roman tyrant Bibulous Junker has invaded and conquered Britannia but only after surmounting great difficulties caused by the Britons’ habit of breaking off battle for 15 minutes every half-hour to drink an infusion of dried herbs.
But two villages remain independent – one village in Hibernia called Tír na nÓg and the other village in Britannia called Camalot – or as it is affectionately called by the locals – Camelcach. One villager called Prematurclimax is dispatched to Hibernia to enlist the help of the druid Fintanobollix to supply magic poitín to the Brittonic rebels. It is decided to send the warrior Dáithíerix who isPrematurclimax’s first cousin once removed – and Obolix the Cloch Fhada maker and delivery-man to help transport a barrel of the poitín. But while beating up a Roman galley in the Muir Éireann, Obolix mentions the mission, which is reported to the Roman high command in Britain.
Meanwhile, the druid Fintanobollix’s Brittonic cousin Faragentorix also a druid and part-time kipper salesman – warns Bibulous Junker to beware The Ides of March. He turns out to be right – on the XXIXth of March Monstrus Selmayronicus who is Bibulous Junker’s second-in-command and whose sanity is sadly Descendit in Latrina assassinates Bibulous Junker in the Senate. Monstrus Selmayronicus is IV Denarii short of a Solidus and has made his horse Coveneoborus a Consul and Senator Hoganheroicus Tribune of the Pagus.
In Londinium – the barrel of smuggled poitín is confiscated by the Romans from a pub cellar owned by the gimp Dipsomaniax – along with all the barrels of warm beer and boxes of chateau-cardboard. The Roman army sets about tasting everything, trying to find which one has the poitín and soon the whole maniple is hopelessly banjaxed. Whereupon Dáithíerix and Obolix steal all the barrels labelled “Dipsomaniax” – but Obolix is himself molto umbriago and starts a scrap with some Roman legionaries.
During the commotion a passing knacker steals the cart with the barrels. Prematurclimax and Dáithíerix leave Obolix at Dipsomaniax’s pub to sleep off his head but while Prematurclimax and Dáithíerix go in search of the Brittonic messer – the Romans capture the sleeping Obolix and Dipsomaniax and raze the pub.
Obolix wakes up in the Tower of Londinium and frees Dipsomaniax and after a search to find the poitín they discover it has been used as a pick-me-up for a camógaíocht team. After this team wins their game, the protagonists seize the poitín and escape by boat down the river Thamesis where the Romans destroy the barrel and release the poitín into the water which causes a widespread and embarrassing erectoral problem in the male population for some months to come.
Back at Camalot, Dáithíerix eases the Britons’ disappointment by feigning to make the poitín with herbs later revealed to be tea. With this psychological boost the village prevails against the Romans.
Dáithíerix and Obolix return home to celebrate with poitín all round. Tea will never catch on here says the druid Fintanobollix but his other cousin the druid Bassettorix thinks it may just do that.

“The latter film in particular, with its careful use of regional British (and Irish) accents and multiracial extras in certain scenes, contrasting with the more uniform appearance of the European enemy, is hardly subtle about the supposed modern parallels it is making. This of course obscures the fact that the British Imperial Forces that faced off against their German rivals in 1914-18 were predominately white, English and Protestant. But why let the facts get in the way of a good political parable?”
Not sure why you include “Protestant” in the second (comparative) line here when you make no allusion to religion in the first. I fervently hope, and genuinely believe, that it wasn’t to counter the mention of “Irish accents” in the first line, for that would be akin to you suggesting that one cannot be both Protestant and wholly Irish. Then again, it could hardly be there to counter the “multiracial extras” of the first line, as Protestantism is not a signifier of race and besides you already countered the multiracial stuff with “white, English”. And why specifically “Protestant” and not just Christian? I’m at a loss to understand this.
Incidentally, over 1 million Indian soldiers fought for Britain against the Germans in World War I. Not an inconsequential number. Quite rightly, the actor Laurence Fox was recently taken to task for trying to write them out of history. Now you’re complaining about a film trying to write them into history. Hard to win, isn’t it?
And as for your chaffing at the “regional accents” and dismissing it as a modern parallel. Really? Are you serious? far from a modern parallel it’s actually historically accurate. For every plummy Oxbridg that is how it was celebrated at the time and that was the predominant cultural milieu of the British forces on the Western Front. That was the majority “ethnicity” of the Tommies. By late 1917 even the so-called Irish regiments contained large English contingents and some sub-units were Irish in name only.
In a sense it was two Teutonic forces facing off against each other. I say this because of how the cultures in both empires interacted and viewed each other at the start of the 20th century. That was the era of like JRR Tolkien and many other young men across British colleges and universities.
Yes, hundreds of thousands of British imperial subjects served in WWI. But not in the manner depicted in the movie, alongside, mixed throughout “white” regiments. And not with the complete lack of racism as the movie depicts. Or even class tensions, which the movie also omits in any substantive manner. No real impression of lions led by donkeys here. No Blackadder style cynicism. The idea that British army units in WWI looked like contemporary 21st century ones was a deliberate choice not a historical one by the film-makers.
The scene with the host of regional British accents and a lone person of colour is so artificial it probably needs to be seen to be appreciated. It is very deliberate and very obvious.
As stated already, racism, class tensions, the futility of war, these things are largely absent in the film. It is an adventure story but one influenced by present day politics, politics that are a weird mix of London multicultural, multiracial liberalism and North of England Brexitism.
The ahistorical fuss about people of colour being in the movie didn’t take away from the fact that Brexit supporters otherwise raved about it.
It’s worth watching. As a movie it has its moments, especially the opening ones. But the early 21st century politics and culture of Greater England are too evident to make it a neutral watch.

Many thanks for that, ASF. Points taken, although I still think “Christian” would have been more apposite than “Protestant”. For example, Tolkien was devoutly Catholic and his great friend, CS Lewis, devoutly Protestant, but they thought this a very minor matter in the greater scheme of things. Simply put, they shared a Christian fundamentalist worldview that boiled everything down to a constant battle between good (i.e. Christianity) and evil (everything else). Indeed, The Lord of the Rings is an allegory on this very theme. The worldview of Tolkien and Lewis was very widely held across Christianity at the time.

The head of the Kingdom, the head of the Empire, and the head of the Church were united in one person and one family in Britain during WWI. This was the very German House of Saxe-Coburg until it rebranded as Windsor towards and after the end of the conflict. So the Church of England and Anglican Protestantism, as well as minor Protestant faiths, was an important driver in imperial and martial thought during Britain’s campaign. It was the spiritual and cultural motivator.
The wartime sermons of the Bishop of London, Arthur Winnington-Ingram, were far from unique:
“Everyone that loves freedom and honour…are banded in a great crusade – we cannot deny it – to kill Germans: to kill them not for the sake of killing, but to save the world; to kill the good as well as the bad, to kill the young men as well as the old, to kill those who have shown kindness to our wounded as well as those fiends who crucified the Canadian sergeant, who supervised the Armenian massacres, who sank the Lusitania, and who turned the machine guns on the civilians of Aerschott and Louvain – and to kill them lest the civilization of the world should itself be killed.”
This is very different from the myth of the Great War, in popular UK culture anyway. These types of sermons, delivered by thousands of Protestant clergymen to soldiers at the Front make for chilling reading. Of course, Catholics and others could deliver similar stuff. And Germany was guilty as well. But the regular British Army in Europe was very much a Protestant institution in terms of its membership and institutional links to the State and the identity of the state as a muscular, militant and masculine Protestant one.
There is some interesting research on this little discussed subject that I’ll try and dig out.
Final point, and thanks for your own. One only has to look at some of the studies of parish church decline in the immediate aftermath of WWI in England as congregations were devastated by their losses, particularly through the recruitment of locally raised units and “pals” units which was socially destructive in so many communities. It was Protestant Anglican and minor Protestant faith communities that suffered the most.

You’d be surprised at the degree to which even “lions led by donkeys” themes can in fact feed a Dolchostosslegende. Just imply that some of those donkey were {from the subset of society is being blamed} and that’s enough. In fact, you probably don’t even need that much. Sometimes why the donkeys allegedly “stabbed the lions in the back” doesn’t even need an explanation with some people in a nihilistic enough political climate.
Having spent most of my life at odds with a Dolchstosslegende (as in starting at age 9) and having observed some similar stuff in Russian society once I learned the language and traveled there, I can tell you the phenomena is more 100x insidious than the supposed Jewish conspiracies in “Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion” and the portrayal of the Demon Azazel in the movie “Fallen” with Denzel Washington as a Police Detective put together. They are certain something more toxic and more adaptable to different political and cultural climates than Fintan O’Toole’s hobby-horse of utterly baseless self-pity.
I’ve seen people come out of the book and the movie “Johnny Got His Gun” with a pro-war “You shouldn’t question the war, because it will harm the soldiers” message.”Johnny Got His Gun” is pretty much the most anti-glamor, anti-glorification of adventure and comradery during war, story I can think of. Things you would perceive as anti-war, aren’t going to be perceived that way by everyone. Since the British Empire is not coming back and I doubt Brexit will enhance Britain’s ability to be an interventionist over what they could do in the EU, I’m way more afraid of that stuff.
Speaking of Teutonic people on both “sides” of WWI, and since you are something of a language revivalist in Ireland. WWI in The US pretty much was the end of North American German and New York Dutch (which sounds rather Germanic). Basically German and Dutch speakers in the US (many member of both groups had German or Dutch speaking ancestors who fought in the American Revolution). Sojourner Truth and Martin VanBuren were Dutch speakers. Now a Brooklyn accent and a few loanwords is all that’s left of that dialect of Dutch.
People were forced to abandon their language and culture more or less overnight.

Some of that in our crazy times I think is related to a sort of “Critical Race Theory” perspective and more generally a penchant for absolutist accounts of things. People don’t want to accept that a lot of the victims of WWI were white Protestant Englishmen. Why? That complicates the whole picture of The British Empire under today’s intellectual climate.
One idea people have these days is that absolutely everything is a zero sum game. That one man’s gain is another’s loss and one man’s suffering must be generating fat profits for somebody-and the profits in this way of thinking must correlate pretty directly to the suffering. Part of that is related to Marxist doctrine as well. Basically if most Britons slaughtered or maimed on The Western Front were Englishmen, then the choices are narrowed down to “Only the Rich prospered from British Empire” and the CRT crowd wants to paint every Englishman as a beneficiary or “The British Empire benefited the colonists”. In this day and age nobody wants to see WWI as essentially a senseless loss of life, because of that distribution obsessed thinking.
Of course, any fortunes made by WWI’s worst war profiteers (same with most wars!!!!) were peanuts compared to the scale of destructive and misery sowed by WWI. Even for those relative few wars that were justified or at least unavoidable, the industries that prosper from it, may have way less benefit to the overall economy than widely assumed.
Really that distribution/zero sum message is dangerous. There will always be somebody cynical and amoral enough to try to make a profit off war if they believe such profits “must be out there somewhere”.

You make some wonderful points here (and further above) Grace. This penchant ‘for absolutist accounts for things” that you mention particularly rings a bell. People crave simple answers to everything – right/wrong, good/evil, black/white, friend/enemy, us/them – when there is very seldom a simple answer, or even a singular answer, to anything. It’s this craving that elevates populist blowhards into high office.

I’ve been reading about the attitude of Cardinal Francis Alphonsus Bourne, the Archbishop of Westminster and head of the Catholic Church in England and Wales Catholics at the time, to WW1. You are certainly right in one respect, the wartime sermons of the (Anglican) Bishop of London, Arthur Winnington-Ingram, were far from unique. They were more than matched by his Catholic counterparts. Indeed, so supportive were English Catholics, clergy and laity, to the British war effort that it led to the easing of discriminatory laws and practices against them. So much so, it was often said afterwards that “WW1 was good for Catholics”.

Yep, very much so. I’ve seen it described as the moment when English Catholics came in from the cold. Also interesting to read about the schism between the Catholic hierarchies in Ireland and Britain as the former group opposed conscription. There was a real split there between some bishops and harsh words between both behind closed doors.
German invective was equally as bad, in some respects.

German invective at that time was off the charts insane. Of course, Germany was not the sole culprit for WWI that has been portrayed, but their war-mongering at that time was pretty nuts.
It was no accident that this was the country that upon losing would end up with Hitler 18 years later. If you read the book “Male Fantasies” by Klaus Theweleit you will see some almost Ted Bundy-like stuff coming from a small subset of disgruntled WWI vets-most of whom came from semi-elite backgrounds, who joined the Freikorps and mostly laid the foundations and were often involved in the rise of Hitler. I don’t particularly like the title of the book as that implies this stuff is far more typical of men when in reality it’s about a pretty warped minority. (If I thought this was typical of men, I’d be a Nun.) Nor do I agree with the very Freudian framework Theweleit uses to explain these utterly psychotic desires expressed. However, Theweleit still deserves some credit for doing what few people will: Wading through the muck and grime, of how these clowns (The Freikorps) used to fantasize about such bizarre and graphic scenes of rape and butchery: Some of them had me surprised a veteran of the WWI trenches could talk of butchering women in such an almost dreamlike fashion but they did-not hard to see how that imagination led to The Holocaust and some of Mengele’s experiments.
I tried looking for more general labels for such men, and to convince people that such characters are a thing, I always ran into the accusation of stigmatizing veterans (even though I was clear that this is a tiny, tiny minority) and/or insisting that this just described PTSD. No this was nothing like ordinary PTSD, this was like Ted Bundy on bad psychedelic trip. I’d known people with war related and non-war related PTSD. It can be a horrible condition, but it doesn’t scare me!!!

Do such individuals come about through a subset of soldiers being desensitised, super pumped on adrenalin for prolonged periods, existing outside social norms by necessity, finding purpose through extreme life and death situations and goal oriented tasks, and just total war necessitating the recruitment of men who would otherwise have been excluded or held in check in peacetime?
Would that partially explain the excesses of the Black and Tans and Auxiliaries in Ireland after WWI? A similar bunch of “extreme sports” addicted veterans? And why so many went on to military service throughout the British Empire, unable to return to civilian life?
If not for the existence of the empire and the need for tens of thousands of men to police it I wonder if the UK would have seen its own Freikorps? Which the Tans and Auxies were in a way, albeit in service of the State. Did the superior trappings of imperialism, the lebensraum of empire and the relative continuity of the political system save the Brits from a real fascist challenge from within?

I don’t have that many answers on why such individuals exist, simply that they do.
I have always leaned to the idea people are influenced by their genes and environment long before that was widely accepted. My guess is that the kind of people who would become the Freikorps type extremists probably went into the war with a combination of predisposing factors that would include genetics, culture/social positions, and other environmental factors. In fact, most of them probably went in with significant risk factors in two if not all three of those of those domains.
Whether it’s desensitization or something else, I don’t know. One thing is if you read Theweleit’s book (and put up with the endless Freudianism in it!!!) the stuff they could write would have the authors of most gothic horror novels and even “American Psycho” running for the hills. It’s too extreme to sell as the most disgusting “torture porn” invented.
As for whether The British Empire saved the UK from Germany’s fate? Not necessarily. A lot of relatively free countries (so you can’t blame Gulags or repressive status quo) with no large Empire or other places to mass-export such people, suffered horrible and humiliating defeats in war without facing anything like the Freikorps, or the rise of one like Hitler
My guess is that if anything having a large Empire to police might mean you are MORE likely to face “fascists” at home. Because rather than rare and cataclysmic wars like WWI your Empire is producing them at all times, and leaving little incentive for individuals or communities to “age out of it” and find some regular occupation. Why Germany ended up with Hitler and other nations that might have had equal or greater risk factors is hard to say.
As to whether the Black and Tans fit that mold? That is hard to say. The Black and Tans obviously had (and deserved) an extremely bad reputation in Irish history. Were more than a subset of them were the same kind who might in Germany join the Freikorps? It’s possible that if a small subset of the Black and Tans were of that mold, that others who had simply joined for a paycheck might have gotten sucked up in the social dynamic by those who were. Maybe more concrete evidence that some of the Tans did fit that mold exists…I don’t know.
One notable fact is that the Black and Tans were receiving a paycheck and many of them got a pension out of it. The same could not be said of the Freikorps. For them it was a “labor of hatred” (versus a labor of love). Also no paychecks or pensions were handed out to another horrific group where I suspect at least the first iteration may have involved a similar type: The KKK. By the first iteration, I’m talking about the early Klan where most of them were Confederate veterans and many had been slave owners or overseers before the war-in short people who had a pretty intense education in brutality long before seeing a day of combat. Of course, the KKK was capable of some extremely grotesque brutalities that are beyond anything I’ve heard of the Freikorps (or the Tans) engaging in things, so who knows what role “pre-existing education” might have played.
For myself, I had a bad feeling about the Vietnam War Dolchstosslegende from the time I was a child (like 9 year old). I mean these sort of Vietnam War-related Dolchstoss themes absolutely frightened me to the point rape attempts by a neighbor paled by comparison. Partly that was because I had seen John McCain’s temper firsthand, decided he was not fit to be President (complete with nuclear weapons and the right to command the armed forces), and learned that almost nobody was willing to utter the faintest hint of criticism towards McCain because they were afraid of The Dolchstoss. Partly it was just a gut feeling that there was something deeply sinister in The Dolchstoss- much eerier than the kind of “hysterical self-pity” O’Toole is so fond of!!! When I found out in 2004 (as a protester myself) that the Freikorps favorite internal story was “When I got back from The Great War a Jewess spat in my face and called me a coward and child-murder.” it was pretty shocking. On the one hand it was evidence that I wasn’t just crazy, for having such strong suspicions about these rumors. On the other hand? Well what can you say!! A variant of a story I’d heard most of my life, with the main variation having a “Jewess” as the “spitter”-and not long before the rise of Hitler and eventually the Holocaust? It’s downright creepy.

Consent on Campus: A Manifesto, Donna Freitas. New York: Oxford University Press, (forthcoming, August 1) 2018.
Summary: An argument that current approaches to consent education as an approach to combating sexual assault on campus are inadequate both in the time devoted to deal with the complexities of sexuality, and the absence of campus leadership, faculty, presidents, and other university leaders, from the discussions.
Much has been made in recent years of the prevalence of sexual assault on campus, with statistics indicating between 20 and 25 percent of women will be subject to assault, and smaller numbers of men, during their collegiate years. Colleges and universities, under pressure from the federal government and Title IX enforcement, have stepped up their efforts at “Consent Education” with programs like “Sex Signals” and “Partying with Consent.” These programs, often part of an hour long session in new student orientation, allow campuses to check the box that they have exercised due diligence in consent education. The other side is Title IX enforcement when a student or other member of the university community files a sexual assault complaint, with mandatory reporting requirements when university officials learn of a sexual assault, opaque investigative processes, neglect of due process for the accused, and pressures on the accuser, depending on who the perpetrator might be.
Donna Freitas, who has been studying student sexuality and the hookup culture on campus for the past ten years since publication of Sex and the Soul, believes these institutional responses to be utterly inadequate. She begins with a preface directed to all university presidents, and it is her hope that they all read this book. Their personal engagement, and not simply written statements, is vital in communicating that campus leadership prioritize thoughtful, honest discussion of sexuality on campus.
She surveys the landscape of campus efforts to deal with sexual assault. She offers a helpful explanation of how Title IX works, the “Dear Colleagues…” letter in 2011 that has triggered the growth of Title IX offices, reporting, and enforcement, and the failure of a campus-wide approach to address the sexual culture on campus that is implicit in Title IX proceedings. She also describes the thin efforts at consent education that fails to deal with the complexities of what “yes” means. Particularly, this is problematic with the party culture of campus and the complications alcohol bring to consent for both male and female students.
It goes deeper though and perhaps one of the most important part of Freitas’ book is the exploration of the inherited “scripts” that shape student behavior, often pressuring them to act in ways that are far from sexually free. Women have to project an air of indifference toward men, that sex doesn’t really matter that much, to avoid any sense of appearing “needy” or “clinging.” Men face pressures to perform sexually, even when they don’t want to. Their masculinity is at stake. Hookups are defined as over when the man “comes” (no real consideration of the woman’s experience). Women also face pressures around body image and various forms of “slut shaming.” All of this, in combination with the presence of alcohol, undermines any real giving and receiving of consent, as well as destroying any sense of sex as something deeply intimate, powerful and empowering for both partners. These inherited scripts are problematic, and often supported by a prevailing assumption on campus that “everyone is doing it” that doesn’t support those who wish to abstain, or wait for a different kind of relationship.
Freitas advocates for a concerted, widely owned effort to re-write these scripts, shared between students, student life personnel and faculty and university leadership. She observes that students often have high ideals of social justice and human dignity, but have never been able to connect those ideals to their sexual and partying behavior with each other. Freitas argues that any sexual encounter is an ethical act. She suggests using campus mission statements, which often are intended but rarely applied as expressing the ideals to which the community aspires. She contends that both existing scripts need to be codified, and critically examined, and that alternative, “interruptive” scripts need to be enacted. She sites the example of Columbia student, Emma Sulkowicz, an assault survivor who raised campus awareness by carrying her mattress with her wherever she went, which became a senior thesis, “Carry That Weight.” Most of all, she pleads that discussions of sexuality not be confined to large, one hour orientation sessions led by over-burdened student life personnel, but be integrated into classroom discussions. She challenges the value of intellectual detachment, proposing that where course content is relevant, that discussion on how this bears on students personal lives and behavior is appropriate and needed and that faculty and university leaders actively engage what happens after the classroom hours as well as during them.
I found much to be commended in this “manifesto” that “named the elephant” lurking on every campus. I appreciated her contention that what is needed are not trigger warnings but honest, even painful discussion (while never forcing students to share personal experiences they are not ready for). I appreciated her descriptions of Title IX and existing consent education efforts and their inadequacy. This needs to be honestly faced, and she helps us do that. I was glad for her contention that student beliefs and choices not to engage in the campus hookup culture need to be affirmed for whatever reasons, including religious belief, that they embrace these choices.
At the same time, she writes dismissively of “values voters” and conservative “one size fits all” ethics in a way that seems to suggest that this is the only alternative currently on offer to hookup culture or her own “script rewriting efforts.” The truth is many campus religious communities are having thoughtful discussions of the kind she writes about that go beyond “what not to do and who not to do it with” to explore the meaning of sexuality, the significance of our gender and identity, how we deal with desire and respect and honor others. She leaves this group out as potential allies, despite their influence with a significant percentage of students on many campuses.
Finally, in urging greater faculty involvement, I wonder whether she reckons with the institutional support necessary for such conversations, from training of what is and is not legal and appropriate in classroom discussions, access to counseling when discussions raise unresolved issues for faculty who also have sexual lives and histories, and good linkages between faculty and student services personnel who might follow up with students in need of further counsel.
This “wake up call” comes as another cohort of students is preparing to arrive on campus. The matters she raises are urgent. Will this next cohort face the same depersonalizing sexual scripts that have prevailed and receive the same thin gruel of consent training? Will both men and women feel strong pressure to conform to the gender stereotypes that prevail in campus sexual culture? And will 20 to 25 percent of these women conclude their college experience not only with a degree but a sexual assault? Much of the answer depends, in Freitas’ view, on whether university leaders, faculty, student life personnel and students come together to disrupt that culture. Her book is probably one of the best playbooks I’ve seen for doing just that.
Disclosure of Material Connection: I received a complimentary review copy of this book from the publisher via Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
Freitas’ earlier book, The End of Sex: How Hookup Culture is Leaving a Generation Unhappy, Sexually Unfulfilled, and Confused About Intimacy was reviewed at Bob on Books on November 24, 2013.

Marco Carola’s Music On Ibiza draw both DJs and crowds from far away, but some live just around the corner. That at least is the case with the DJ duo Neverdogs who moved to the island permanently in 2005 and have been on board with the crew from the very beginning. On Friday, they will take over Amnesia’s decks in the club room along with certified legends Felix Da Housecat and Stacey Pullen while Carola has invited Claude VonStroke to play the club’s Terrace with him.
How long have you been part of the Music On family – and how did your connection to Marco and the team develop?
We’re very proud to say that we’ve been a part of the Music On family from the very beginning, and it all started at the launch of Music On in Miami for WMC in 2011, where we played at the official after party. We moved to the island in 2005 and after a couple of years we met Roberto and Ernesto who became our good friends. A few years later they introduced us to Marco and Luca. Over the years we built a strong friendship and alliance with them and then we were fortunate enough to be included in the line-up from the first season in Ibiza, and in many other cities like London, Barcelona, Amsterdam, Playa Del Carmen, Miami, Los Angeles and New York.
Music On is one of the strongest brands on Ibiza – what do they do differently?
There are several aspects which we believe make Music On stand out as a brand. The slogan “It’s All About The Music” is a reminder of Music On’s main focus, which is top quality performances delivered by renowned artists that are brought to the line-up each week. The delivery of these DJ sets to the crowd is supported by the production, the branding, the dancers, the decoration and the visuals. So much effort goes into the production that transforms Amnesia into a different experience for Music On every Friday. Let’s not forget that every member of the Music On team gives 110%, no matter what their role is. It’s their commitment and dedication that brings everything together.
What’s the secret of their success in your opinion?
Music On has become so much more than the party it started out as in 2011. We believe it is a lifestyle choice and it has grown to become something that people want to be a part of.
What characterises your relationship with each other?
Our relationship with each other is based on a solid friendship which has lasted 17 years. It’s rare that two DJs who besides working together, are capable of living together and travelling the world with one another in unity. We do everything as a duo; we support one another and that is the fundamental part of our relationship.
How would you describe the musical identity of the Music On events?
We would describe the Music On sound as a mixture of tech house and techno; rolling beats that keep the energy in the room high and keep the crowd dancing until after the sun has risen.
Which three tracks won’t leave your playlist this summer?
The unreleased track “Moliendo Cafe” by Neverdogs & Outway, “So Much Love” by Depeche Mode, a Neverdogs bootleg, and “Monkey Beat” by Neverdogs & Matteo Gatti on Decay Records.

Become a Member of Transportation & Fleet Services
"A school bus driver gets there when nobody else can; finds houses that don't exist and children with no names. They dry tears, dispel fears and find lost notebooks. School bus drivers have eyes in the back of their heads and are able to hear every word, even in sign language. They are immune to noise. Their biggest apprehension involves five-year-olds with motion sickness especially in the winter time when the windows are all closed and the heater is on. Sometimes a school bus driver gets tired, but they seldom get mad; and always, most faithfully, they get there." - Anonymous

DaNaye Gettel, Training Supervisor - 303-982-2542

What is a school bus driver?
School bus drivers are the people who transport our most precious resource, but get paid less than those who haul our country's most toxic waste.
School bus drivers drive in all kinds of weather. School bus drivers are subjected to pre-employment screening that includes fingerprinting, references attesting to moral character, and state and federal government background checks. They go through over 80 hours of training to determine how the driver responds to stress, child psychology, and other variables in the workplace and behind the wheel.
School bus drivers must experience rigid physical examinations and meet federal hearing, vision and agility requirements, to name a few. Blood pressure, pulse, weight, knee jerks, and urinalysis must conform to established standards. They are tested pre-employment for controlled substances, and are subject to random, post accident and reasonable suspicion tests throughout their career.
If physically and mentally qualified, school bus drivers must then be prepared to learn how to drive a vehicle that could be seven to ten times longer than today's compact car, weigh as much as thirteen elephants, and hold the equivalent of three 20-man football squads.
After learning to drive this special vehicle they are trained in advanced first aid, CPR, pupil behavior management, hazard detection and response, transporting children with handicapped conditions, emergency driving techniques, public relations and policies as well as preventive maintenance and vehicle inspections.
School bus drivers must undergo a biennial physical, annual review of their driving records, an annual road test of their driving ability, and a minimum of 6-hours of in-service education annually. They are required to carry a Commercial Drivers License (CDL) which increases the fee for the licensed driver.
A school bus driver is a member of the best-screened, best-qualified, and best-trained profession associated with the motor transport industry in the country. They are members of the motor transport industry that possesses the safest transportation record in the world.
School bus drivers are one of a few members of society who are entrusted with the care and safety of children when they are not at home with their parents. A trust that is guarded zealously by all those parents who rely on them each school day. A school bus driver is a person who smiles in the morning and smiles in the evening.

I have a personal view that it’s best to wear a helmet, and would encourage any cyclist I know to do so. I have had enough “near misses,” small tumbles that would have been a LOT worse if I wasn’t wearing one, and friends who have (literally) been saved by them to not do so. But I hold a paradoxical view: I don’t believe they should be mandatory.

XR exasperation
Activism, Australian politics, Environment & sustainability
My partner, Juliette, posted this to Facebook over the weekend, and it really resonated with me. Kinda similar to my recent post on XR and how “inconvenience” is sorta the point, but a bit more direct and to the point, and more powerful for it I think. Posting in its entirety, unedited, with permission.

An inconvenient extinction

By now, I suspect most people have heard about the Extinction Rebellion, or “XR” for short. In the past few weeks, XR-related actions have begun to crop up here in Australia, too, along with hints of the inevitable backlash (even in the “echo chamber” that is my Facebook feed.) One friend’s comments really resonated with me, but in preparing my response realised it really wasn’t suited (read: too long! Soz, not soz…) for a Facebook comment.

Illegal acts: boat people vs. the Australian Government
Australian politics, Human rights, International politics
I was unfortunately travelling interstate when the latest series of Go Back to Where You Came From was on free to air on SBS. The last season was excellent, so we recorded it and last night Ang and I just started watching the series (we’re watching one episode a week.)
One of the myths that was repeated by a number of the participants in the program was that asylum seekers that enter Australia by boat (by illegal means) are breaking the law, therefore they are criminals. This is plainly false, here’s why:
Australia is signatory to the Convention and Protocol Relating to the Status of Refugees (commonly referred to as the “Refugee Convention.”) This international legal instrument, to which we’re bound, clearly states on page 3 of its introduction (emphasis mine):
Convention provisions, for example, are to be applied without discrimination as to race, religion or country of origin. Developments in international human rights law also reinforce the principle that the Convention be applied without discrimination as to sex, age, disability, sexuality, or other prohibited grounds of discrimination.
The Convention further stipulates that, subject to specific exceptions, refugees should not be penalized for their illegal entry or stay. This recognizes that the seeking of asylum can require refugees to breach immigration rules.
Prohibited penalties might include being charged with immigration or criminal offences relating to the seeking of asylum, or being arbitrarily detained purely on the basis of seeking asylum."
What this means is that, contrary to this popular myth, asylum seekers are not breaking the law in attempting entry to Australia. In fact, quite the opposite is true — the criminal act, according to international law, is being perpetrated by our Government. The bolded points in the passage above are all penalties that the Government has illegally introduced, in addition to striking certain islands literally off the map when it comes to immigration law.
Refugees from specific regions have been discriminated against, with asylum seekers from some regions being automatically refused refugee status, regardless of their case. All asylum seekers entering by boat are arbitrarily detained. During the Howard Government people that were found to be refugees were granted only Temporary Protection Visas, which restricted the rights and support that they received. In my view, this can only be viewed as a “penalty” for the method of entry.
If we could remove set aside the emotion that the issue of refugees seems to engender in this country, and focus instead on the rule of law, there are few things that are plain and (should be) self-evident.
If you agree that the Government should commit to international laws (such as trade agreements and other treaties), you must accept that we need to act in accordance with the laws we have agreed to be bound by.
And if you accept that Australia should be a signatory to the Refugee Convention, you must accept that we are bound to its provisions. If you don’t, you should be asking the Government to withdraw its support for the Refugee Convention. Or if you disagree with just these provisions, you should be advocating action being taken by the Australian Government to address these issues through the appropriate channels — that is through the mechanisms of the United Nations — rather than “jumping the queue” (to steal another myth/misnomer) and implementing measures that are illegal under international law. And until such time that those provisions are in place, we should be upholding the laws which we have signed.
Celebrating Australia Day
Australian politics, International politics, Personal
As Australia Day rolls around again we’re encouraged to celebrate the nation’s official birthday. I’ve mentioned before my agitation about “celebrating” the invasion and near genocide of another people that this day represents.
Since writing that post, I’ve had the thought that if we are to continue celebrating on this date, that the celebration should be something akin to the sentiment engendered in ANZAC day. While a celebratory event, ANZAC day begins with a solemn reflection on lives lost and the cost of war. As the day progresses it transforms into a celebration of the human spirit — of overcoming and moving on from hard times, of friends and family, of sacrifice and valour.
Perhaps if Australia Day was practiced in this manner, I could support it. Imagine if at the beginning of the day we acknowledged the First Australians and the terrible wrongs wrought upon them in the foundation of the English phase of this nation? That we acknowledged and reflected on the lives lost, on the traditions ignored and broken. Then, perhaps, after this solemn expression we could begin to celebrate recent achievements and a vision for the future.
This is highly unlikely to happen, of course. This nation has been built upon a racist foundation — from terra nullius to the stolen generation to the White Australia policy. And that foundation still manifests in so many ways — from the relatively silent (for example, the Northern Territory “intervention” which is barely discussed) to the more vocal, such as the so-called “debate” on refugee policy. I put “debate” in quotation marks, because it is not. It is a race to the bottom as political parties and the media1 clamour for the most headline-catching (and usually inhumane) way to “manage” distraught and desperate people trying to flee war and persecution. All fuelled by a public sentiment that is so fearful of “the other” and an ignorance of the beauty and benefits of other cultures.
The only glimmer of hope I see in this discourse comes from SBS, with a string of excellent documentary series that aim to bring to light alternative perspectives on the race and immigration debate. From First Australians to Immigration Nation to Go Back to Where You Came From to the most recently aired Once Upon a Time in Cabramatta, SBS seems to be the only (relatively) mainstream media entity willing to actually tackle the issue with any degree of respect and balance.
Contrast that collection of works with the jingoistic nationalist tripe that gets rolled out annually across the commercial networks. Until the types of stories that appear on SBS are being told regularly on Sixty Minutes and Today Tonight, we have a long way to go before we can truly come to grips with our past, reconcile with our indigenous and immigrant brothers and sisters, and truly celebrate our nation moving forward.
I love a good BBQ. I drink beer with my mates and celebrate “mateship”. I believe in this supposed Australian tradition of a “fair go”. I am a fervent NRL fan and love heading down the pub to watch the grand final with the rest of the rabble. I’ll cheer Lleyton and Bernard, or Clarkey and the team. I’ll gladly give some good-humoured stick to the Kiwi’s or the Poms when we get up in the union, cricket, rugby (or anything really).
I celebrate and enjoy these traditions. But I can’t bring myself to celebrate this day. I find it a sad shame that when I see people displaying an Australian flag (on a temporary tattoo or on their car or in their window) that I can’t help but think there’s a racist “go home” intent.
All that said, I will appreciate Australia Day, in all of its complexity, in solemn reflection and respect. I hope you do too…
The only time I’ve seen the Daily Telegraph display a pro-refugee headline was when it was an opportunity to beat up on the Gillard Government’s policies (or, more to the point, a beat up on “Julia”). As an aside, is there any male Prime Minister where it was ok to reference them by their first name so readily? I don’t remember Kevin or John or Paul being bandied about quite so freely in the press and public discourse. But I digress…
Blog Action Day: Climate Change
Activism, Australian politics, Environment & sustainability, International politics
Today is Blog Action Day and this year’s theme is “climate change”. This post is my contribution, professional cross-posted on my blog.
For those that don’t know, world leaders are meeting in Copenhagen December this year to discuss climate change and their responses to it.
So far we have seen very little from world leaders in terms of real, concrete targets and changes. There is a lot of hope (though dare I say not a lot of expectation) that the Copenhagen talks will result in an updated global agreement that reflects the severity of the situation as outlined by the scientific and economic communities (although Obama’s recent executive order is a positive sign).
It seems that governments the world over are having a deal of trouble committing to targets that are decades away. But I suspect this is part of the problem – the focus on decade long cycles (e.g. “25% by 2020”) needs to shift binding 1 and 5 year targets and plans as well. Whilever plans focus on 10 or 20 years away, action will not be swift. Let’s reduce by 1% this year, an addition 2% next year and soon the totals will add up to the 25%+ that we need to achieve.
To most people it is clear that societally we need to rapidly (i.e. over the next 10 years) reduce carbon emissions across the globe. It is also clear that the costs of acting now will be much lower than later.
To put this into perspective, WWF-Australia recently teamed up with Climate Risk to produce an estimate that places the cost of transforming to a low-carbon economy in Australia at half the cost of the recent economic stimulus package – if we act now. If we allow the amount of carbon in the atmosphere to reach potentially catastrophic levels, the cost will be far, far greater.
Our government and business leaders know this. There is popular support for action. And yet things are still stalled…
What we do know
While there are a lot of unknowns, and acknowledging there is no “silver bullet” solution to reducing carbon emissions, there are a few things that are already underway and with further support will make a significant impact on our emissions.
Renewable energy
Renewable energy systems need to be developed and rapidly deployed to offset coal-based generation. So-called “clean coal” is not a long-term solution, yet it has a medium-term development cycle – the case just doesn’t stack up (you might consider joining GetUp’s “iCoal 2.0” campaign to let our politicians know we know).
Investment needs to be channelled to existing and emerging technologies such as wind, solar, and wave energy. Report after report shows how these, existing, technologies can service our needs. Google has stated that more early stage funding is required. But of course there are myriad ways the government could be supporting the industry – a “real” emissions trading scheme (one that doesn’t let big polluters off the hook) or feed in tariffs are a good start. But even better support for R&D in the area would be welcome.
Alternative fuel vehicles
Alternative fuel vehicles – especially electric vehicles powered by renewable energy – will play a significant role in the short-term transformation of mobility towards low-carbon goals.
It seems that the market has landed on electric vehicles – with the Tesla roadster launched and the Model S on the way in 2011, GM launching the Volt in 2010, followed hotly by the Nissan LEAF late 2012. Nissan’s concept is interesting as they plan to lease the battery – the most expensive component in electric vehicles – to reduce the up-front cost of the technology for buyers.
And of course A Better Place has a novel concept that they hope to launch in Australia, among other countries, soon.
There are longer-term solutions, including re-thinking our cities, something that City of Sydney council seems to be making a lot of noise about with their 2030 Sustainable Sydney plan. But in the short-term cars will be the transport option of choice for many people as our existing infrastructure is geared to best support this mode of mobility.
Energy efficiency
Energy prices will inevitibly increase over time – if not through government levies through geo-political and other factors. In addition, a shift to renewable energy will to an extent require us to be more efficient with our use of energy.
But being more efficient now can also have a significant positive impact by reducing consumption, or maintaining current levels of consumption as population grows, reducing the need for new capacity while new renewable energy capacity enters the mix and some emerging technologies gain a footing.
This is where individual action can make a big difference – if we all choose more efficient appliances, upgrade to more efficient lighting technology, and the like can reduce the need for new capacity, as well as reducing our bills.
Collective action
Over the past few years there’s been a lot of emphasis on individual action – in us as “consumers” playing our part in creating demand and making lifestyle changes. While individual action is important, this will only get us so far.
We need our leaders in government and industry to truly step up to the mark. This is why the Copenhagen agreement is so critical. There will be many, many actions that can be taken in the lead up to the Copenhagen talks – but on this Blog Action Day can I suggest writing or speaking to your federal government representative (you can user OpenAustralia to find out who your rep is) and telling them how important this issue is. Outline the ways that you’re doing your bit, and put forward your ideas about how you want the government to do theirs.
If that’s too much, consider casting your vote with EarthHour, or support an environmentally-focused non-profit who is doing good work in the area.
In either case, let’s give our political leaders the support they need to ensure that we get the right result at Copenhagen.
Emissions trading objections
Australian politics, Environment & sustainability, International politics
In my (admittedly limited) reading about the proposed emissions trading scheme here in Australia, I get the impression there’s two primary objections (mostly from business, but also the opposition party – coincidence?) to the trading scheme.
The first is that a scheme will raise prices for the Australian public for goods from high-emissions industries, like electricity. I suspect this is to raise public opposition to the scheme, but I think that we’ve mostly overcome this objection.
The second seems to be that the scheme will negatively impact exports for these products, which in Australia will have a significant impact on exports. An extension to this argument is that producers in countries that don’t have such impediments will be able to undercut the price of Australian companies’ produce.
Over the jump I’ve put together some initial thoughts on these objections and the Government’s proposed approach…

To enhance the efficiency and coverage of your next mobile advertising strategy, which mobile ad sizes are your focus?
Mobile ads come in every form and size, but did you realize that some of them are more efficient than others? If you understand how to create a display campaign, it is important to differentiate between different ad sizes on your smartphone and focus on those that most convert and have the most inventories. In order to save time, we prepared a list of the top five sizes of mobile ads in 2021.
5 Best Mobile Ad Sizes For 2021
320 x 50 Mobile Leaderboard
The 320 x 50 mobile leaderboard, also called Smartphone Banner from the Interactive Advertising Bureau, is among the frequently used portable device banners (IAB). According to data, 12% of all worldwide ad impressions are mobile leaderboard advertisements.
Mobile board advertising are close to typical desktop banner advertising but has been tailored to fit inside the limited view of mobile devices. Mobile leaderboards can be helpful for usage as an overlay/anchor ad at the end of a web page, as one of the smaller ad units accessible.
300 x 250 Inline Rectangle
It is one of the most relevant mobile ad sizes for planning and optimizing your ideas when creating a campaign. Inline advertising from rectangles, sometimes referred to by the IAB as ‘Medium Rectangle,’ ideally suited for advertisers and generated sales for publishers, everyone benefits from it.
Inline is one of both desktops and mobile phone’s most prevalent ad sizes. 300 × 250 ad sizes might represent up to 40 percent of the worldwide advertising inventory, according to extensive studies. Inline rectangular ads can be found on websites or as in-app adverts.
728 x 90 Leaderboard Banner
The dimension of the pixel is 728 x 90. While the leaderboard is primarily a desktop banner ad style, it does play a role in smartphone advertisements that publishers should be conscious of. Leaderboard banners aren’t available on mobile, but they’re one of the most popular banner ad units on tablets.
Leaderboard ad slots make up around a quarter of all show ad space, so even if you’re only targeting tablet devices, you should be able to reach a larger audience with leaderboard advertising than with any other smartphone ad type.
320 x 100 Large Mobile Banner
According to numerous ad networks, 320 x 100 large mobile banners are one of the top five most popular mobile ad styles. The large mobile banner is twice the size of the standard 320 x 50 mobile leaderboard banner, and it fits smartphone displays perfectly. Advertisers now have double the area to present a compelling message that draws attention.
Although the smaller and less intrusive smartphone leaderboard format may be utilized as a sticky ad, overlay, or anchoring ad unit, 320 x 100 ads are more impactful when linked effortlessly with the publisher’s content.
336 x 280 Interstitial Ads
Users view interstitial adverts as part of their usual surfing experience on a website, app, or smartphone entertainment. When there are breaks in the flow of material, such as between clips, levels of a video game, or when an operation is done, interstitial advertising appears. They normally occupy the whole screen of the user’s computer and may include interactive elements to stimulate user involvement.
Many platforms use smartphone advertising to monetize their apps. You must, however, choose the best decision for your app. MediaFem is one of the most popular mobile advertising platforms in 2021.

DAKAR (Reuters) – Senegal on Monday logged only two new daily COVID-19 infections, the lowest number since the pandemic reached the country and two months after the rate of new cases hovered at record highs, the health ministry said on Monday.
“Two cases were recorded today, the lowest ever recorded,” said health ministry spokesperson Ngone Ngom. “They were in the past seven, 10 cases, but from the top of my head I think this is the lowest.”
While the number of COVID-19 infections has been relatively low in Senegal compared with elsewhere, the West African nation is emerging from its deadliest wave yet. Twenty thousand of its 73,800 cases and 250 of its 1,860 deaths were recorded in July alone.
The country of around 17 million people is pressing ahead with vaccinations, but still has a long way to go.
Vaccinations have more than doubled since the start of July, with the country having administered since then around 730,000 of its total 1.25 million doses used so far.

Is it possible to be motivated by your own site? CF had a great post (if I do say so myself) earlier this week about living your dream. I’ve realized, that while I’m happy and somewhat complacent in my current position, I do not have a basic enthusiasm for the subject matter or have any personal investment in the results of my labour. Nevertheless, I am grateful to be employed; a family...
