Soon after, Stefani finished the Rock Steady Tour with her band No Doubt, and took a call from her label, who informed her that Perry was in a studio ready to collaborate, and that Perry \"only [had] five days out of the whole year to work with [her].\" Stefani has since admitted that she was frustrated by not being able to see her husband Gavin Rossdale, and was intimidated at the thought of collaboration, in particular with Perry, who she did not feel was qualified to write dance music. Stefani was exhausted by the recently completed tour, and shortly afterwards suffered an emotional breakdown, which she spent in bed crying.\n During their first day of work, the two wrote a song titled \"Fine by You\", which Stefani later described as \"a stupid love song, but really good\". Perry remarked that the song \"wasn't right\", and the track was excluded from the album. "}}

Soon after, Stefani finished the Rock Steady Tour with her band No Doubt, and took a call from her label, who informed her that Perry was in a studio ready to collaborate, and that Perry \"only [had] five days out of the whole year to work with [her].\" Stefani has since admitted that she was frustrated by not being able to see her husband Gavin Rossdale, and was intimidated at the thought of collaboration, in particular with Perry, who she did not feel was qualified to write dance music. Stefani was exhausted by the recently completed tour, and shortly afterwards suffered an emotional breakdown, which she spent in bed crying.\n During their first day of work, the two wrote a song titled \"Fine by You\", which Stefani later described as \"a stupid love song, but really good\". Perry remarked that the song \"wasn't right\", and the track was excluded from the album. The session was unproductive. The session was unproductive due in part to Stefani's self-consciousness. The session was unproductive due in part to Stefani's writer's block."}}

In contrast, the competing Magnuson bill was similar to Bush's proposal to vest control in a panel of top scientists and civilian administrators with the executive director appointed by them. The Magnuson bill emphasized basic research and protected private patent rights. A compromise Kilgore\u2013Magnuson bill of February 1946 passed the Senate but expired in the House because Bush favored a competing bill that was a virtual duplicate of Magnuson's original bill. A Senate bill was introduced in February 1947 to create the National Science Foundation (NSF) to replace the OSRD. This bill favored most of the features advocated by Bush, including the controversial administration by an autonomous scientific board. The bill passed the Senate and the House, but was pocket vetoed by Truman on August 6, on the grounds that the administrative officers were not properly responsible to either the president or Congress.

In contrast, the competing Magnuson bill was similar to Bush's proposal to vest control in a panel of top scientists and civilian administrators with the executive director appointed by them. The Magnuson bill emphasized basic research and protected private patent rights. A compromise Kilgore\u2013Magnuson bill of February 1946 passed the Senate but expired in the House because Bush favored a competing bill that was a virtual duplicate of Magnuson's original bill. A Senate bill was introduced in February 1947 to create the National Science Foundation (NSF) to replace the OSRD. This bill favored most of the features advocated by Bush, including the controversial administration by an autonomous scientific board. The bill passed the Senate and the House, but was pocket vetoed by Truman on August 6, on the grounds that the administrative officers were not properly responsible to either the president or Congress. The OSRD was abolished on December 31, 1947."}}

artwork or contributions, and late last year, the fund allocated $22 million to 30 criminal justice reform groups and education and arts initiatives.", "Around the same time, the anonymous consignor

that people can connect with,\" she said.", "Glenn Fuhrman, meanwhile, is another financier with an interest in art.", "He co-founded MSD Capital, majored in finance and art history at UPenn, and is a

philanthropy and floated the theory that collectors are the sleeping giants of arts philanthropy.", "She concurred with this assessment.", "Collectors, she said, are \"exposed to a wider variety of artists, practices, ideas, and social commentary,\" and moving forward, they will \"direct the same passion they have to collecting to philanthropy.\"", "Glenn Fuhrman, while commenting on his new and

outbreak of Ebola.", "VOA has also had to defend itself from sometimes ill-conceived legislative and internal reform proposals.", "Yet VOA is keeping itself renewed to face the challenges of today's fast-changing media environment.", "We are keeping on track with the human communications revolution now underway, and doing it cost effectively.", "Today, the Voice of America is reaching 172 million people a week at last count.", "That is 49 million more than the 123 million estimate produced for the Broadcasting Board of Governors covering 2010, the year before I arrived.", "That number may sound abstract but it represents something important: VOA has credibility and real global impact.", "Back in 2011, when I first walked into the VOA newsroom, we were producing more than 70 news items a day, most of them based entirely on the wires.", "That was the right model for VOA in past years, but not for the faster-paced news organization we must be today.", "In 2015, VOA's language services

more.", "Over the last four years, we have also seen big audience growth on satellite TV in one of the world's most challenging markets: China.", "Since we moved more of China Branch resources to television, VOA Weishi has built an audience many times larger than it was four years ago \u2014 75 percent of whom are under the age of 35.", "In markets that are more open, we are building TV

popular channels.", "For these affiliates \u2013 as elsewhere in the world \u2013 we leverage our domestic reporting assets and correspondents to provide stations with what they would have, if they

take calls from women.", "Men kept calling, but our hosts said \u2013 please pass the phone to your wife!", "And now the show Najiba Noshaba is drawing floods of calls from women in once improbable places like the Taliban's southern heartland.", "In the last two years, VOA Urdu host Shahnaz Aziz and her show My Story has connected hundreds of listeners with people who can help, whether it is

"VOA has also had to defend itself from sometimes ill-conceived legislative and internal reform proposals.", "Yet VOA is keeping itself renewed to face the challenges of today's fast-changing media environment.", "We are keeping on track with the human communications revolution now underway, and doing it cost effectively.", "Today, the Voice of America is reaching 172 million people a week at last count.", "That is 49 million more than the 123 million estimate produced for the Broadcasting Board of Governors covering 2010, the year before I arrived.", "That number may sound abstract but it represents something important: VOA has credibility and real global impact.", "Back in 2011, when I first walked into the VOA newsroom, we were producing more than 70 news items a day, most of them based entirely on the wires.", "That was the right model for VOA in past years, but not for the faster-paced news organization we must be today.", "In 2015, VOA's language services also have access to the wires, and their journalism is of a higher standard than ever before.", "The VOA News Center team is thus freer now to focus on original reporting \u2013 on journalism that makes us unique.", "A new Managing Editor and her team are beefing up the Washington beats, moving to a \"digital first\" workflow, and creating partnerships with language service reporters where they can add special insight or sources.", "A new Opinion page on the English website is providing readers with varied views curated daily from American newspapers and websites \u2013", "an ongoing example of the open debate that flourishes in our great democracy", "One major challenge \u2013 and opportunity \u2013 we face today is an explosion of new media outlets and ways for people to get their news.", "Mobile,

and French, but also in vernacular tongues, such as Kirundi, and Bambara.", "As a result, we reach audiences well beyond the educated elites and, among them, many more women.", "Right now the TV sector is where Voice of America is getting the most competition.", "It is where governments like Russia, China, and Iran are putting their money.", "It is also where our largest audience growth is

VOA Weishi has built an audience many times larger than it was four years ago \u2014 75 percent of whom are under the age of 35.", "In markets that are more open, we are building TV audiences through the affiliate model, and it may show the greatest promise for VOA's future.", "In Latin America, Indonesia, Africa and elsewhere, we work closely with partner stations, producing content that audiences want.", "Our daily news show Africa 54, anchored by Vincent Makori, includes reports from the award-winning Nigerian station Channels TV, which is rapidly expanding across the continent.",

stations by providing what we call the Washington \u2013 or U.S. Bureau \u2013 concept.", "In Somalia, VOA hosts Sahra Nur and Mohamed Olad reach more than half the population each week with their show Qubanaha \u2013 a 15-minute mix of U.S., international, and regional news, as well as local reports broadcast on Somali National TV, on satellite, and online.", "Kurd Connection is another VOA affiliate model success.", "So much so that we expanded the program from 20 minutes to 50 minutes at the request of our broadcasting partner, NRT TV, one of the region's most popular channels.", "For

to our Spanish Service affiliates from a beautiful set with skyline views of Manhattan.", "Originally designed for the age of radio, VOA New York is now a vibrant TV and multimedia broadcast center.", "We \u2013 and our colleagues at the International Broadcasting Bureau (IBB) \u2013 have also stepped up to the plate on modernizing our television infrastructure, opening a new TV master control,

Russian-speaking region and in Prague, New York, and Washington \u2013 all brought together by Operations for a technically complex daily, 30-minute program offering viewers bordering Russia a

audiences in places like North Korea, Afghanistan, and Zimbabwe, but they are joined by more and more FM transmitters, and by mobile apps.", "There is constant innovation in content as well.", "We are

calling, but our hosts said \u2013 please pass the phone to your wife!", "And now the show Najiba Noshaba is drawing floods of calls from women in once improbable places like the Taliban's southern heartland.", "In the last two years, VOA Urdu host Shahnaz Aziz and her show My Story has connected hundreds of listeners with people who can help, whether it is reuniting a family in Kashmir or connecting a disabled teenager from Pakistan with a filmmaker in India.", "Three years ago, our Pashto-language Deewa Radio started broadcasting on direct-to-home satellite.", "Their \"cheap and cheerful\" simulcast \u2013 radio on TV \u2013 has built strong audiences as dish ownership continues to grow in the border areas of west Pakistan, especially among young people who increasingly get their news from television.", "Earlier this year, VOA's Creole Service began simulcasting radio-on-TV on affiliates in Port-au-Prince, Cap-Haitian, and Saint-Marc.", "They have been so successful that new businesses have signed up to advertise on Radio Tele Dynamic, because of VOA Creole's pull with the new television audience.", "As Director, I have visited Mali, Nigeria, Ukraine, Pakistan and Myanmar, among others, and witnessed firsthand what extraordinary passion many in our global audience have for VOA's programming and, as a result, for America.", "Whenever our bureaucratic problems seem overwhelming, I think of the people I met on those travels, and it all seems worth it.", "Going forward, VOA and its parent organization, the Broadcasting Board of Governors, will continue to

country to take international broadcasting \u2013 and public diplomacy generally \u2013 more seriously.", "\u2013 There is a need too for constant vigilance against misguided attempts to restrict VOA from reporting independently and honestly on all the subjects that audiences want to hear about.", "We at VOA are proud of our coverage of our own country, and are constantly looking for ways to make it better, but we also know that if VOA were ever to be limited by law to just covering U.S. news, many of our key audiences would turn elsewhere for information they currently get from us.", "Our

Giant Bomb's Brad Shoemaker wrote that while the best aspects of the game remained, other aspects\u2014such as the level design and fighting the Flood\u2014were no less frustrating after ten years; Digital Spy's Matthew Reynolds echoed the sentiment, praising the game for presenting situations unsurpassed in later titles while faulting irregular checkpoints with increasing frustration.\n The remastered visuals were positively received; reviewers such as \"The Inquirer\"'s Chris Martin and \"The Escapist\"'s Russ Pitts singled out the graphics-switch button for praise. \"The Guardian\"'s Steve Boxer called the feature \"utterly fascinating\u2014a bit like ... archaeology on your console\", and said that the visual overhaul improved areas where the original game engine was weak, such as rendering outdoor environments. While praising most of the game's refinements, Watters singled out the Flood as enemies he thought the original game envisioned better, saying \"the simplicity of the classic look feels more sinister and alien\". Hamza Aziz of Destructoid appreciated the visual updates, but not some of the resulting audio\u2013animation syncing issues.\n Critics had split opinions on \"Anniversary\"'s additional features. The stereoscopic 3D effect was alternately praised and dismissed: Matt Miller of \"Game Informer\" wrote that the feature \"doesn't add anything to the experience\", while Aziz described the feature as \"fantastic\", considering its use in \"Anniversary\" to be more subtle and pleasing than in other games. Aziz also applauded the narrative terminals, although he criticized the Kinect voice command support for being slower in combat than pressing buttons. "}}

"Lawrence and Oppenheimer had worked together at the University of California, Berkeley, and, more famously, on the Manhattan Project.", "Lawrence even named one of his sons Robert after Oppenheimer.", "But Lawrence had grown exasperated by Oppenheimer's vocal support for a public debate on U.S. nuclear policy\u2014a debate that could impede Lawrence's efforts to expand the American nuclear program.", "In truth, Lawrence's second thoughts about testifying were not out of concern for a former friend but for his radiation laboratory.", "Lawrence feared the reputation of his Rad Lab, as it was known, would suffer if he participated in the AEC's private hearing to remove Oppenheimer's security clearance, widely viewed as a witch hunt by the physics community.", "So the day before he was due to testify, Lawrence called Strauss and told him he was too sick to make the journey from California.", "It was the truth\u2014Lawrence was suffering from one of his recurring bouts of ulcerative colitis, likely caused by intense stress\u2014but it was not the whole truth.", "Although Lawrence did not testify in person, a transcript of an interview he gave condemning Oppenheimer was presented at the hearing, and it included the words \"[Oppenheimer] should never again have anything to do with the forming of policy.\"", "Several other members of Lawrence's lab team also testified against Oppenheimer, including Luis Alvarez, Wendell Latimer, and Kenneth Pitzer, apparently united against their colleague and the idea of political dissent in the scientific community.", "Lawrence's reputation and that of his laboratory never fully recovered from his involvement in Oppenheimer's persecution, despite Lawrence's considerable contributions to nuclear physics and his status as a Nobel laureate.", "In Big Science: Ernest Lawrence and the Invention That Launched the Military-Industrial Complex, Michael Hiltzik depicts Lawrence as a man of unique strengths and inescapable weaknesses.", "As the title suggests, Lawrence's strengths perfectly positioned him to transform the way science, particularly nuclear physics, was done, from benchtop experiments in small, ill-equipped, and understaffed labs to large-scale experiments in government-funded labs with big teams of scientists and even bigger equipment.", "But despite this scientific success Lawrence's flaws tripped him up throughout his career.", "He learned to compensate for some of his weaknesses, but he couldn't escape them all.", "Lawrence's education did not follow the typical path of East Coast elites in the nuclear-physics field.", "He grew up in a fairly conservative, if intellectually encouraging, household in South Dakota.", "His parents, the children of Norwegian immigrants, were both teachers.", "He earned his bachelor's degree at the University of South Dakota and his master's degree at the University of Minnesota, and then headed east to Yale University for his doctorate.", "In 1928 Lawrence was recruited by the University of California, Berkeley, at the time somewhat of a backwater in research.", "Four years later he invented the cyclotron, which Hiltzik describes as a \"method for artificially driving subatomic particles into the nucleus with enough energy to give physicists a clear picture of what it was made of.\"", "One cyclotron led to another, each larger and more powerful than the last.", "Lawrence's use of big equipment and big teams of scientists, who were needed to keep the cyclotrons running, was atypical for the field.", "Hiltzik points out that the father of nuclear physics, Ernest Rutherford of the University of Cambridge's Cavendish Laboratory, distrusted the cyclotron and believed that great discoveries could still be made with simple tabletop equipment.", "Lawrence transformed this romantic notion of the lone, scrappy scientist working in his tiny lab into that of big science.", "Lawrence encouraged an atmosphere of collaboration in the Rad Lab, unlike the standard practices in Europe and the rest of the United States.", "Each member of his team focused on one chemical element, bombarding that element's nucleus, while Lawrence acted as overseer.", "He encouraged curiosity and exploration for their own sake and recruited team members from chemistry, medicine, and engineering as well as physics.", "His skill in attracting talent was matched by his skill in finding the money to pay that talent.", "## Large_Charge_2", "Robert Oppenheimer and Ernest Lawrence standing by a 184-inch cyclotron, ca. 1946.", "The pair, who had worked closely together in Lawrence's lab and on the Manhattan Project, would become estranged because of their political differences.", "Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory", "To illustrate the unusual nature of Lawrence's rainmaking abilities, Hiltzik offers up Marie Curie and the lengths to which she went to obtain a tiny amount of radium in 1921.", "Curie had to \"sing for her supper.\"", "She went on a fund-raising tour of the United States for six weeks, finishing up with a visit to the White House, all to obtain just a thimbleful of radium for her experiments.", "Lawrence, however, created a trifecta of steady income from academia (through Berkeley), government, and foundations.", "Lawrence's interdisciplinary style of research actually increased the number of potential funders.", "When he discovered that foundations, including the Josiah Macy Jr. Foundation, were interested in funding the use of isotopes in cancer research, he tailored his pitch to them.", "Lawrence also understood the need for a little spectacle, and on his 1935 East Coast lecture tour\u2014a thinly veiled fund-raising campaign\u2014he drank a glass of radioactive salt water at each stop and then used a Geiger counter to demonstrate the radioactive sodium's circulation throughout his body.", "He referred to these kinds of activities as \"the vaudeville.\"", "Sometimes Lawrence's personal traits led him astray.", "Early in his career a discovery might so excite him that he would fail to do the careful work required to confirm his results.", "At the 1933 World's Fair in Chicago, Lawrence used his cyclotron observations to suggest that deuterons could explode when hit hard enough, which directly challenged research coming out of the Cavendish, the place where artificial nuclear fission had first been discovered.", "After the New York Times and Time published pieces on Lawrence and his new theory, the Cavendish tested it and disproved it.", "They found, as Hiltzik bluntly puts it, that \"Lawrence's targets were contaminated\u2014his supposed great discovery the product of poor technique.\"", "Lawrence refused to believe his theory was faulty, continuing to promote it until his childhood friend Merle Tuve, also a renowned physicist, checked his results.", "\"Dear Ernie,\" Tuve wrote, \"we reached the astounding conclusion that we were unable to check a single one of the observations which you have reported.\"", "Lawrence was forced to admit his error.", "To add insult to injury, scientists at the Cavendish discovered two new isotopes\u2014tritium and helium-3\u2014while performing the same experiments.", "After more such mistakes Lawrence learned his lesson and, according to Hiltzik, reoriented his laboratory \"toward much more careful research.\"", "Lawrence's efforts paid off when he found a new radioactive isotope of sodium in 1934.", "Rather than rushing to make an announcement, Lawrence painstakingly reviewed his work and detailed his methodology in a long report sent to the journal Physical Review.", "His work was of great use for research in the physics and medical communities, and his more mature approach buoyed his reputation.", "Lawrence went on to win the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1939 for the creation of the cyclotron and for the discoveries he made with his machine.", "Still, his inability to correct for all his habits of mind led to some serious professional mistakes, including his consistent advocacy for keeping politics out of the Rad Lab.", "Lawrence believed scientific work to be removed from the political realm, and he did not approve of his staff discussing politics in the lab or having opinions about the political implications of their research.", "Lawrence felt scientific activism led to \"frittering away so much time and energy on political problems, when [the scientists] could be devoting themselves to scientific pursuits.\"", "But Lawrence's career took him through the Great Depression, World War II, and the Cold War, and he alienated many talented scientists who weren't willing to keep politics out of their lives.", "Despite his assertions Lawrence was not truly apolitical.", "The funders who kept his cyclotrons running and with whom he rubbed shoulders were often very conservative men, and they influenced him.", "When Lawrence received a government Works Progress Administration (WPA) grant during the Depression to hire out-of-work shop craftsmen, many of his private foundation funders balked at the idea of being associated with a New Deal program.", "Ludwig Kast of the Macy Foundation, one of his largest funders, worried that if the WPA was overturned by the Supreme Court, the foundation's and the WPA's dual support of the Rad Lab would be incriminating and indicate \"that [the foundation has] something to do with sinister communist tendencies.\"", "In response, Lawrence removed all acknowledgment of WPA funds from research papers involving work supported by the Macy Foundation.", "Despite his great success in executing his big scientific ideas, Lawrence failed at managing his lab in this one way: he could not keep politics out.", "In 1947, with McCarthyism under way, the California legislature's Un-American Activities Committee began to investigate security at Berkeley, considered a sanctuary for leftists by committee members.", "Their concerns moved the AEC, under pressure from the House Un-American Activities Committee, to form regional security boards.", "Jack Neylan, a personal friend and

"Lawrence and Oppenheimer had worked together at the University of California, Berkeley, and, more famously, on the Manhattan Project.", "Lawrence even named one of his sons Robert after Oppenheimer.", "But Lawrence had grown exasperated by Oppenheimer's vocal support for a public debate on U.S. nuclear policy\u2014a debate that could impede Lawrence's efforts to expand the American nuclear program.", "In truth, Lawrence's second thoughts about testifying were not out of concern for a former friend but for his radiation laboratory.", "Lawrence feared the reputation of his Rad Lab, as it was known, would suffer if he participated in the AEC's private hearing to remove Oppenheimer's security clearance, widely viewed as a witch hunt by the physics community.", "So the day before he was due to testify, Lawrence called Strauss and told him he was too sick to make the journey from California.", "It was the truth\u2014Lawrence was suffering from one of his recurring bouts of ulcerative colitis, likely caused by intense stress\u2014but it was not the whole truth.", "Although Lawrence did not testify in person, a transcript of an interview he gave condemning Oppenheimer was presented at the hearing, and it included the words \"[Oppenheimer] should never again have anything to do with the forming of policy.\"", "Several other members of Lawrence's lab team also testified against Oppenheimer, including Luis Alvarez, Wendell Latimer, and Kenneth Pitzer, apparently united against their colleague and the idea of political dissent in the scientific community.", "Lawrence's reputation and that of his laboratory never fully recovered from his involvement in Oppenheimer's persecution, despite Lawrence's considerable contributions to nuclear physics and his status as a Nobel laureate.", "In Big Science: Ernest Lawrence and the Invention That Launched the Military-Industrial Complex, Michael Hiltzik depicts Lawrence as a man of unique strengths and inescapable weaknesses.", "As the title suggests, Lawrence's strengths perfectly positioned him to transform the way science, particularly nuclear physics, was done, from benchtop experiments in small, ill-equipped, and understaffed labs to large-scale experiments in government-funded labs with big teams of scientists and even bigger equipment.", "But despite this scientific success Lawrence's flaws tripped him up throughout his career.", "He learned to compensate for some of his weaknesses, but he couldn't escape them all.", "Lawrence's education did not follow the typical path of East Coast elites in the nuclear-physics field.", "He grew up in a fairly conservative, if intellectually encouraging, household in South Dakota.", "His parents, the children of Norwegian immigrants, were both teachers.", "He earned his bachelor's degree at the University of South Dakota and his master's degree at the University of Minnesota, and then headed east to Yale University for his doctorate.", "In 1928 Lawrence was recruited by the University of California, Berkeley, at the time somewhat of a backwater in research.", "Four years later he invented the cyclotron, which Hiltzik describes as a \"method for artificially driving subatomic particles into the nucleus with enough energy to give physicists a clear picture of what it was made of.\"", "One cyclotron led to another, each larger and more powerful than the last.", "Lawrence's use of big equipment and big teams of scientists, who were needed to keep the cyclotrons running, was atypical for the field.", "Hiltzik points out that the father of nuclear physics, Ernest Rutherford of the University of Cambridge's Cavendish Laboratory, distrusted the cyclotron and believed that great discoveries could still be made with simple tabletop equipment.", "Lawrence transformed this romantic notion of the lone, scrappy scientist working in his tiny lab into that of big science.", "Lawrence encouraged an atmosphere of collaboration in the Rad Lab, unlike the standard practices in Europe and the rest of the United States.", "Each member of his team focused on one chemical element, bombarding that element's nucleus, while Lawrence acted as overseer.", "He encouraged curiosity and exploration for their own sake and recruited team members from chemistry, medicine, and engineering as well as physics.", "His skill in attracting talent was matched by his skill in finding the money to pay that talent.", "## Large_Charge_2", "Robert Oppenheimer and Ernest Lawrence standing by a 184-inch cyclotron, ca. 1946.", "The pair, who had worked closely together in Lawrence's lab and on the Manhattan Project, would become estranged because of their political differences.", "Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory", "To illustrate the unusual nature of Lawrence's rainmaking abilities, Hiltzik offers up Marie Curie and the lengths to which she went to obtain a tiny amount of radium in 1921.", "Curie had to \"sing for her supper.\"", "She went on a fund-raising tour of the United States for six weeks, finishing up with a visit to the White House, all to obtain just a thimbleful of radium for her experiments.", "Lawrence, however, created a trifecta of steady income from academia (through Berkeley), government, and foundations.", "Lawrence's interdisciplinary style of research actually increased the number of potential funders.", "When he discovered that foundations, including the Josiah Macy Jr. Foundation, were interested in funding the use of isotopes in cancer research, he tailored his pitch to them.", "Lawrence also understood the need for a little spectacle, and on his 1935 East Coast lecture tour\u2014a thinly veiled fund-raising campaign\u2014he drank a glass of radioactive salt water at each stop and then used a Geiger counter to demonstrate the radioactive sodium's circulation throughout his body.", "He referred to these kinds of activities as \"the vaudeville.\"", "Sometimes Lawrence's personal traits led him astray.", "Early in his career a discovery might so excite him that he would fail to do the careful work required to confirm his results.", "At the 1933 World's Fair in Chicago, Lawrence used his cyclotron observations to suggest that deuterons could explode when hit hard enough, which directly challenged research coming out of the Cavendish, the place where artificial nuclear fission had first been discovered.", "After the New York Times and Time published pieces on Lawrence and his new theory, the Cavendish tested it and disproved it.", "They found, as Hiltzik bluntly puts it, that \"Lawrence's targets were contaminated\u2014his supposed great discovery the product of poor technique.\"", "Lawrence refused to believe his theory was faulty, continuing to promote it until his childhood friend Merle Tuve, also a renowned physicist, checked his results.", "\"Dear Ernie,\" Tuve wrote, \"we reached the astounding conclusion that we were unable to check a single one of the observations which you have reported.\"", "Lawrence was forced to admit his error.", "To add insult to injury, scientists at the Cavendish discovered two new isotopes\u2014tritium and helium-3\u2014while performing the same experiments.", "After more such mistakes Lawrence learned his lesson and, according to Hiltzik, reoriented his laboratory \"toward much more careful research.\"", "Lawrence's efforts paid off when he found a new radioactive isotope of sodium in 1934.", "Rather than rushing to make an announcement, Lawrence painstakingly reviewed his work and detailed his methodology in a long report sent to the journal Physical Review.", "His work was of great use for research in the physics and medical communities, and his more mature approach buoyed his reputation.", "Lawrence went on to win the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1939 for the creation of the cyclotron and for the discoveries he made with his machine.", "Still, his inability to correct for all his habits of mind led to some serious professional mistakes, including his consistent advocacy for keeping politics out of the Rad Lab.", "Lawrence believed scientific work to be removed from the political realm, and he did not approve of his staff discussing politics in the lab or having opinions about the political implications of their research.", "Lawrence felt scientific activism led to \"frittering away so much time and energy on political problems, when [the scientists] could be devoting themselves to scientific pursuits.\"", "But Lawrence's career took him through the Great Depression, World War II, and the Cold War, and he alienated many talented scientists who weren't willing to keep politics out of their lives.", "Despite his assertions Lawrence was not truly apolitical.", "The funders who kept his cyclotrons running and with whom he rubbed shoulders were often very conservative men, and they influenced him.", "When Lawrence received a government Works Progress Administration (WPA) grant during the Depression to hire out-of-work shop craftsmen, many of his private foundation funders balked at the idea of being associated with a New Deal program.", "Ludwig Kast of the Macy Foundation, one of his largest funders, worried that if the WPA was overturned by the Supreme Court, the foundation's and the WPA's dual support of the Rad Lab would be incriminating and indicate \"that [the foundation has] something to do with sinister communist tendencies.\"", "In response, Lawrence removed all acknowledgment of WPA funds from research papers involving work supported by the Macy Foundation.", "Despite his great success in executing his big scientific ideas, Lawrence failed at managing his lab in this one way: he could not keep politics out.", "In 1947, with McCarthyism under way, the California legislature's Un-American Activities Committee began to investigate security at Berkeley, considered a sanctuary for leftists by committee members.", "Their concerns moved the AEC, under pressure from the House Un-American Activities Committee, to form regional security boards.", "Jack Neylan, a personal friend and patron of Lawrence's and a regent at the university, headed the board at Berkeley and began investigating members of the faculty for Communist sympathies.", "Lawrence did not view these investigations

identified as a feminist at that point in my life,\" says Hills, who lives in New York and recently published her first book, The Sex Myth: The Gap Between Our Fantasies and Reality.", "\"Honi led the charge about the UR being sexist and put posters up all over the university.\"", "\"One of the useful things as a student journalist were those pieces that I got to do where I was interrogating things that were happening on Union Board.", "So even though I don't presently work as a political journalist, I think that the kind of observation reporting I got to do on those machinations is something that you can really only do on campus when you're that age, because that's the political environment that you have intimate exposure to.", "I learnt some useful lessons about reporting from doing those stories.\"", "In the face of funding cuts arising from the introduction of voluntary student unionism, the UR was effectively wound up in 2005.", "The Daily Bull, formerly a newsletter advertising the services and events provided by the USU, was rebranded as BULL Magazine, replacing the UR as the union's flagship publication.", "While it seems clear that BULL was subject to greater Union oversight than its predecessor, the extent to which this compromised the editorial independence of the publication has perhaps been overstated.", "Though a USU representative subedited every article and sat in on editorial meetings, the role was described by one editor as \"always pretty administrative\"; it was about keeping track of pitches and articles.", "From 2012 to May 2015, the editorial liaison was USU Marketing and Communications Manager Louisa Stylian.", "\"She provided quite a bit of editorial feedback, and that's actually something I found hugely helpful.", "I thought she had a really strong sense of what worked well in the mag,\" says John Rowley, who edited BULL in 2013.", "\"I felt like she was more of an editorial mentor than a voice for the USU.\"", "Two editors cite instances where articles didn't make it to print because of their critical stances on the Union.", "Alex McKinnon, who edited BULL in 2011 and has since gone on to be assistant editor of popular news website Junkee, remembers:", "\"Someone pitched to me the idea of comparing food prices at Union outlets to prices off campus, which I thought was a really good idea.", "And it didn't get through, I mean as you can imagine the markup on things sold at campus outlets would be quite high.\"", "Another editor states that, \"we didn't want to bite the hand that fed us.", "I always saw working on BULL as similar to working in the real world\u2014where someone else subedits your work and your publication has marketing agendas.\"", "Prior to this year, much of the publication's design was outsourced to the Union's Sales and Marketing Department, whose conception of the paper seemed to differ drastically from the students'.", "\"There was a really intelligent feature about people's apparent progressivism in racial politics\u2026 yet their refusal to sleep with people that don't look like them in their sexual lives,\" recalls Eleanor Gordon-Smith.", "\"And the cover was a penis wearing a KKK hood.\"", "While noting that the fuzzy chain of command made it difficult to challenge such decisions, Gordon-Smith emphasises that any issues of editorial autonomy fell squarely at the feet of board directors, \"rather than some graphic designer who's just doing their job\".", "The overall impact of the USU's proposed media alternative on the independence and viability of student publications is mixed.", "Stylian declined to be interviewed for this article.", "However, in a Facebook comment, she decried the board's failure to consult with the current editorial team, writing \"rest assured I would have fought for you\".", "A new section of the Union's website will be devoted to multimedia news and campus culture coverage, with two part-time editors being paid an hourly rate in line with the applicable workplace award agreement.", "Contributors will be paid a fixed rate.", "The decision to increase remuneration for student journalists has been met with near universal praise.", "It is an uncomfortable truth that, generally speaking, only those with the luxury of 12-hour timetables and considerable financial support from their families are able to undertake editorial work for an effective hourly rate of less than $1.", "\"BULL has been a place where a lot of many dedicated talented people get to cut their teeth in a pseudo-professional environment,\" says Gordon-Smith.", "\"So I think recognising that and leaning in to it, for instance by paying people, is a really good way to make sure it keeps doing that.\"", "USU Board Director Ed McMahon told Honi that an editorial policy will be drafted by a working party chaired by elected Directors, and that the student editors will be in charge of the broad editorial vision of the site.", "That said, several students have expressed concerns that paying contributors may give the USU a bit too much editorial power in terms of the content students may be incentivised to produce.", "Much of BULL's content, such as photojournalism and long-form features, is particularly suited to the production cycle of a monthly print publication.", "It is unclear how much continuity will exist between BULL and the new site.", "The shift to an exclusively digital platform, and salaried rather than stipended positions, suggests an attempt by the USU to inject a sense of professionalism into its publications programs.", "The impact of this shift on the relatively radical institution of student journalism is, at best, questionable.", "As McKinnon observes, \"student journalists have more of a capacity to be feral than they would if they were writing for more respectable publications.\"", "Filed under:", "#### Through steel doors: Wom*n at odds with Australia's prison system", "By Nell O'Grady and Liam

involved purple suits, patterned handkerchiefs, and bowler hats\u2014had a profound impact on the marketplace, as well.", "\"I think because he was a Brit and had a different understanding of clothing

told me, and a couple of other guys have told me this, too, that they used to watch the show because it was a great way in with the ladies.\"", "While the tabloids may have desperately hoped for some Lively-Meester on-set friction, this, by all first-hand accounts from those involved with the show, was not the case\u2014though, god knows, that did not stop the tabloids from conjuring such tales.",

\"people knew what the show was,\" executive producer Joshua Safran said.", "It was not long before packs of paparazzi were stalking the set, not dissimilar from the way in which \"Gossip Girl\" and

little S.U.V. at the time and I had it parked out front of our location at the school.", "There were just so many fans everywhere, and when we wrapped at the end of the day, there were handprints all

different perspective now, I never really got used to it. . . .", "I'm a private person and I don't like being the center of attention.\"", "Meester was somewhat flippant about the initial fan attention: \"I think they were mostly there for the guys.\"", "While Sex and the City had blazed the trail for a New York-based show that enjoyed a symbiotic relationship with the worlds of fashion and commerce, Gossip Girl set trends for the coveted 18 to 34 demographic in a particularly emphatic way.", "\"It was very clear from the beginning that we wanted to editorialize television and give it this high-fashion, international flair,\" costume designer Eric Daman explained.", "Savage said, \"We talked about how the show, on the one hand, is telling this fictional story about these

involved purple suits, patterned handkerchiefs, and bowler hats\u2014had a profound impact on the marketplace, as well.", "\"I think because he was a Brit and had a different understanding of clothing

told me, and a couple of other guys have told me this, too, that they used to watch the show because it was a great way in with the ladies.\"", "While the tabloids may have desperately hoped for some Lively-Meester on-set friction, this, by all first-hand accounts from those involved with the show, was not the case\u2014though, god knows, that did not stop the tabloids from conjuring such tales.", "\"It's funny,\" Trachtenberg said, \"Because when we were filming, there was, 'Leighton hates Blake, Blake hates Leighton, everyone hates Blake, everyone hates Leighton, everyone hates Chace,' and

and she would be like, 'I'm doing this thing tonight.", "Have you been to this restaurant?'", "Leighton was very removed and very quiet, and, after her scenes were done, she would wander the stage.", "I had this image of her just in these gorgeous dresses with a book in her hand, sort of a little bit out of focus out in the corners.\"", "But even though they may have had different demeanors, the two got along just fine on set: \"Blake and Leighton were not friends.", "They were friendly, but they were not friends like Serena and Blair.", "Yet the second they'd be on set together, it's as if they were.\"", "Lively's life ended up mirroring and then eclipsing that of Serena, the character she was playing.", "\"It was funny,\" Schwartz said, \"When we first started talking to Blake, it was

fighting on the extreme right (see Duke of Cornwall's Light Infantry).", "Lord Roberts commenced his northern advance on 3rd May, and on the 8th he was joined by General French with the 1st (Porter's), 3rd (Gordon's), and 4th (Dickson's) Brigades of cavalry.", "The 3rd Brigade now included the 17th Lancers.", "In the further advance towards Pretoria this brigade was generally working in

left the 3rd for the 1st Brigade, his successor being Lieutenant Colonel Little.", "The 2nd and 3rd Brigades were for some weeks after 16th July engaged in the pursuit of De Wet's force, which had

psychiatrist Elisabeth K\u00fcbler-Ross, a pioneer in the field of grief counselling, identified the five stages of grief as denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance.", "This extract from Economyths draws on her model of grief as inspiration to chart the long, arduous, but ultimately healthy and healing (we hope, it's not over yet) process as the economics profession slowly comes to terms with its role in the Great Financial Crisis.", "The ten years since the first tremors of the crisis began in 2007 have been a difficult journey, not just for the world economy, but also for the economics profession.", "The status of the field had never been higher than in the two decades preceding the crisis, during what Ben Bernanke and others called the Great Moderation.", "Inflation and macroeconomic volatility seemed to be under control, and total national income was growing at an almost steady rate (the fact that total debt was growing even faster was less remarked upon).", "In 2002, Alan Greenspan received an honorary knighthood from the Queen for 'his outstanding contribution to global economic stability'.", "The following year, Nobel laureate Robert Lucas, famous for his theory of 'rational expectations', told his audience: 'My thesis in this lecture is that macroeconomics in this original sense has succeeded: Its central problem of depression prevention has been solved, for all practical purposes, and has in fact been solved for many decades.", "'With its firm grounding in mathematical rigour", ", economics was the undisputed queen of the social sciences.", "##### Get Evonomics in your inbox", "Economists were therefore more than a little surprised by what jurist and economist Richard Posner \u2013 author of books including the aptly-named A Failure of Capitalism: The Crisis of '08 and the Descent into Depression \u2013 inventories as 'the bursting of the housing bubble (they didn't know it was a bubble), the ensuing banking collapse, the stock market crash, the sharp decline in output and employment, the global scope of the crisis, and the onset of deflation in the late fall of 2008 that created fears of a depression comparable to the Great Depression of the 1930s'.", "According to James Heckman from the University of Chicago, 'Everybody here was blindsided by the magnitude of what happened.", "But it wasn't just here.", "The entire profession was blindsided.'", "Indeed, the crisis came as a traumatic event that left mainstream economists in what Greenspan called 'a state of shocked disbelief'.", "Models which were based on assumptions of stability, equilibrium and efficiency were of little use when markets were cratering, real estate was sinking into the mud, and oil and food were spiking.", "And since that time, economists have been working their way slowly and painfully through the different stages or aspects of the grief process, as they realise that their elegant models not only failed to predict the crisis, but also helped to create it.", "When Economyths first came out, most economists were in a state of denial \u2013 especially those at the top of the profession.", "Future laureate Tom Sargent said in a 2010 interview \"It is just wrong to say that this financial crisis caught modern macroeconomists by surprise.\"", "(No mention of whether the non-modern macroeconomists saw it coming too.)", "Laureate Robert Lucas preferred to see the unpredictability as a natural result of future laureate Eugene Fama's efficient market hypothesis (though as Posner notes, that didn't stop him from predicting, shortly after Lehman's collapse, that the crisis would soon go away).Fama", "agreed that the efficient market hypothesis 'did quite well in this episode'.", "The Nobel committee apparently agreed too.", "As reality sank in, economists soon began lashing out in anger at anyone who dared criticise their field, including yours truly (I'm going to talk about this because it seems to be quite a general problem).", "At Canada's top-ranked economics blog Worthwhile Canadian Initiative, for example, a group of prominent academics, including regular contributors to national publications (Globe and Mail, National Post, Maclean's, Literary Review of Canada, etc.),shared their professional thoughts about the book online.", "Descriptors used included idiotic, ignorant, intellectually lazy, juvenile, random, rubbish, semi-articulated, and 'sort of like Malcolm Gladwell without the insight' \u2013 ouch.", "Someone even compared me to a climate change denier (not uncommon, as it turns out).", "One commenter described the online book burning as part of a widely-deployed 'shoot the messenger' strategy against critics.", "Which is fine \u2013 we give as good as we get, and at least they don't grade us.", "But what was interesting about their discussion was the way these academics, who hailed from top universities such as British Columbia, Carleton, Laval, and so on, managed to maintain the illusion that they were being incredibly tolerant and open to criticism.", "As one put it, 'Economists welcome criticism.", "In the academy, we are well-known, if not infamous, for being direct, abrupt, and rude in criticizing each other (and others).", "There is a very healthy discussion about methodology.", "Bring it on.'", "But they confused academic bickering with genuine criticism from people who share none of their biases.", "The site linked to an even more vituperative blog review by an economics professor at the University of Victoria who of course took pains to say that economics 'benefits from criticism', as long as it's the right type, a topic we discuss further below.", "(Fortunately I was spared the electronic 'viruses and hate mail' which have apparently afflicted other critics of mainstream economics.)", "And that was about it for thoughtful response from the country's economics establishment, at least until former Deputy Governor of the Bank of Canada William White (now at OECD) \u2013 one of the few people who warned of the financial crisis \u2013 cited the paperback edition as a Bloomberg Best Book of 2013, perhaps out of sympathy.", "Let's make a deal", "As anger started to burn out, the next stage of the drawn-out and generally exhausting grief process involved bargaining: both with the future \u2013 perhaps we can put things right \u2013 and in a kind of retroactive bargaining with the past, saying that the event would not have occurred if only something had been done differently.", "One common argument, anticipated in the book's introductory chapter, was that there is nothing wrong with economics per se, the problem is one of poor communication: the field's critics just don't understand the full rich diversity of economic thought, and are attacking a simplified caricature.", "A good illustration of this approach was the 2015 book Economics Rules by Dani Rodrik from Harvard.", "Echoing Lionel Robbins \u2013 who called economic man an 'expository device' in 1932 \u2013 Rodrick explains that the reason student groups such as the Post-Crash Economics Society are frustrated is that introductory economics courses offer only a pared down version of the theory and give 'little sense of the diversity of conclusions in economics'.", "Also most economists are poor at presenting their arguments to the public, because they 'see themselves as scientists and researchers whose job it is to write academic papers'.", "Rodrik does note the existence of a 'guild mentality' in economics which 'renders the profession insular and immune to outside criticism', and observes in a couple of places that 'Only card-carrying members of the profession are viewed as legitimate participants in economic debates'.", "Yet later he cites the influence of behavioural psychologists and so on to conclude that 'the view of economics as an insular, inbred discipline closed to outside influence is more caricature than reality'.", "(Pardon?)", "The overall impression is one of bemusement at all the fuss.", "After making a number of good points about models, the book concludes with 'Ten Commandments' (aka 'bargaining points') for economists, and ten for non-economists.", "Some of these are very sensible \u2013 #3 from the latter list, for example, says: 'Analysis requires simplicity; beware of incoherence that passes itself off as complexity.'", "Others are versions of common defences against critics, e.g. #9: 'If you think all economists think alike, attend one of their seminars', and #10: 'If you think economists are especially rude to noneconomists, attend one of their seminars.'", "These are surely well-meant and sound fairly innocuous, unless you're afraid of economics seminars, but they come up all the time in different guises and it's worth inspecting them a little more closely.", "The first is a polite variation of the 'caricature' or 'straw man' argument, implying that economics is far more diverse and complicated than it appears to an outsider.", "However, the fact that economists do not agree on every point does not somehow innoculate the field against criticism; and the claim or implication that non-economists don't fully understand the subject, and need to attend a seminar or take a course to appreciate its mysteries, often boils down to a debating or avoidance tactic (and obviously doesn't apply to the increasing number of critics from within the field's own ranks).", "It also leads to the catch-22, perfectly expressed in a generally glowing 2017 review of Rodrik's 'marvelous book' by economist and game theory expert Ariel Rubinstein, published in the Journal of Economic Literature, that 'One needs to be an outsider to criticize Economics but one needs to be an economist to do it sufficiently well so as not to be drawn astray by stereotypes', which doesn't seem to leave many people.", "Apparently Rodrik qualifies, despite or because of the fact that he 'belongs to the elite of the Economics academic establishment'.", "Commandment/bargaining point #10, meanwhile, echoes the idea, also expressed above, that rudeness between economists is evidence of a 'very healthy discussion about methodology'.", "I'm assuming this doesn't include hate mail.", "Five things \u2026", "First, the main objection to the arguments made by economists concerns not the style, but the content.", "Second: as seen below, economists are not rude at all when it comes to questioning their leaders \u2013 in fact obsequious deference would seem to be a better description.", "Third: lack of civility (at least in itself) is not an indicator of healthy scientific debate, in the academy or in the playground.", "I'd say that advertising it probably reflects more an anxiety about appearing robustly scientific.", "Fourth: in his 2006 book The Trouble With Physics, physicist Lee Smolin notes that string theorists cultivate a 'brash, aggressive, and competitive atmosphere', though he doesn't see it as an advantage.", "He also detects a 'blatant prejudice' against hiring women.", "Could these be related \u2013 and could macho posturing be a similar problem in economics?", "According to one article, by economist Miles Kimball and an untenured female economist who didn't want to be identified in case it hurt her career, some male economists 'may not even realize all the ways they routinely put others down \u2013 especially those in vulnerable positions who dare not strike back'.", "Finally, and related, rudeness might be fine between equals, but one of the functions of social graces is to help deal with asymmetrical power relationships, of the sort encountered in economics departments.", "A 2015 investigation at the University of Manitoba, for example, concluded that while the department head, an orthodox economist, had insisted 'that he was committed to maintaining diversity', his subsequent actions resulted in a change of climate that had the opposite effect.", "This ultimately led among other things to 'a violation of academic freedom when orthodox members of the department behaved in ways that discriminated against doctoral students being supervised by heterodox economists'.", "According to one professor there was 'serious bullying going on' including threats to interfere with the tenure process.", "No wonder the students are calling for revolt (they're so rude).", "Economic depression", "It therefore comes as something of a relief to us critics that some economists at least may be proceeding to the penultimate, more passive stage of the grief process, depression.", "Evidence is provided by a paper by Paul Romer, 'The Trouble With Macroeconomics' (he had also been reading Smolin's book, hence the title), a 2016 preprint of which caused a considerable stir in economics circles.", "Sounding almost Economyths-like in style, the first sentence of the abstract announces that 'For more than three decades, macroeconomics has gone backwards'.", "It goes on to describe the author's 'pessimistic assessment of regression into pseudoscience' and mention the 'serious failure' of top economists.", "Decidedly non-upbeat section titles include 'Post-Real Models', 'Loyalty Can Corrode The Norms of Science', 'Back to Square One', and 'The Trouble Ahead For All of Economics'.", "No concrete solutions are proposed for what sounds, to an outsider, like a rather dysfunctional state of affairs.", "In the same way that elegant but unfalsifiable string theory has, as Smolin showed, taken over high-energy physics, so mainstream economics has increasingly emphasised elegant but unfalsifiable mathematical models over experimental reality.", "Most of the parameters in

him from predicting, shortly after Lehman's collapse, that the crisis would soon go away).Fama", "agreed that the efficient market hypothesis 'did quite well in this episode'.", "The Nobel committee apparently agreed too.", "As reality sank in, economists soon began lashing out in anger at anyone who dared criticise their field, including yours truly (I'm going to talk about this because it seems to be quite a general problem).", "At Canada's top-ranked economics blog Worthwhile Canadian Initiative, for example, a group of prominent academics, including regular contributors to national publications (Globe and Mail, National Post, Maclean's, Literary Review of Canada, etc.),shared their professional thoughts about the book online.", "Descriptors used included idiotic, ignorant, intellectually lazy, juvenile, random, rubbish, semi-articulated, and 'sort of like Malcolm Gladwell without the insight' \u2013 ouch.", "Someone even compared me to a climate change denier (not uncommon, as it turns out).", "One commenter described the online book burning as part of a widely-deployed 'shoot the messenger' strategy against critics.", "Which is fine \u2013 we give as good as we get, and at least they don't grade us.", "But what was interesting about their discussion was the way these academics, who hailed from top universities such as British Columbia, Carleton, Laval, and so on, managed to maintain the illusion that they were being incredibly tolerant and open to criticism.", "As one put it, 'Economists welcome criticism.", "In the academy, we are well-known, if not infamous, for being direct, abrupt, and rude in criticizing each other (and others).", "There is a very healthy discussion about methodology.", "Bring it on.'", "But they confused academic bickering with genuine criticism from people who share none of their biases.", "The site linked to an even more vituperative blog review by an economics professor at the University of Victoria who of course took pains to say that economics 'benefits from criticism', as long as it's the right type, a topic we discuss further below.", "(Fortunately I was spared the electronic 'viruses and hate mail' which have apparently afflicted other critics of mainstream economics.)", "And that was about it for thoughtful response from the country's economics establishment, at least until former Deputy Governor of the Bank of Canada William White (now at OECD) \u2013 one of the few people who warned of the financial crisis \u2013 cited the paperback edition as a Bloomberg Best Book of 2013, perhaps out of sympathy.", "Let's make a deal", "As anger started to burn out, the next stage of the drawn-out and generally exhausting grief process involved bargaining: both with the future \u2013 perhaps we can put things right \u2013 and in a kind of retroactive bargaining with the past, saying that the event would not have occurred if only something had been done differently.", "One common argument, anticipated in the book's introductory chapter, was that there is nothing wrong with economics per se, the problem is one of poor communication: the field's critics just don't understand the full rich diversity of economic thought, and are attacking a simplified caricature.", "A good illustration of this approach was the 2015 book Economics Rules by Dani Rodrik from Harvard.", "Echoing Lionel Robbins \u2013 who called economic man an 'expository device' in 1932 \u2013 Rodrick explains that the reason student groups such as the Post-Crash Economics Society are frustrated is that introductory economics courses offer only a pared down version of the theory and give 'little sense of the diversity of conclusions in economics'.", "Also most economists are poor at presenting their arguments to the public, because they 'see themselves as scientists and researchers whose job it is to write academic papers'.", "Rodrik does note the existence of a 'guild mentality' in economics which 'renders the profession insular and immune to outside criticism', and observes in a couple of places that 'Only card-carrying members of the profession are viewed as legitimate participants in economic debates'.", "Yet later he cites the influence of behavioural psychologists and so on to conclude that 'the view of economics as an insular, inbred discipline closed to outside influence is more caricature than reality'.", "(Pardon?)", "The overall impression is one of bemusement at all the fuss.", "After making a number of good points about models, the book concludes with 'Ten Commandments' (aka 'bargaining points') for economists, and ten for non-economists.", "Some of these are very sensible \u2013 #3 from the latter list, for example, says: 'Analysis requires simplicity; beware of incoherence that passes itself off as complexity.'", "Others are versions of common defences against critics, e.g. #9: 'If you think all economists think alike, attend one of their seminars', and #10: 'If you think economists are especially rude to noneconomists, attend one of their seminars.'", "These are surely well-meant and sound fairly innocuous, unless you're afraid of economics seminars, but they come up all the time in different guises and it's worth inspecting them a little more closely.", "The first is a polite variation of the 'caricature' or 'straw man' argument, implying that economics is far more diverse and complicated than it appears to an outsider.", "However, the fact that economists do not agree on every point does not somehow innoculate the field against criticism; and the claim or implication that non-economists don't fully understand the subject, and need to attend a seminar or take a course to appreciate its mysteries, often boils down to a debating or avoidance tactic (and obviously doesn't apply to the increasing number of critics from within the field's own ranks).", "It also leads to the catch-22, perfectly expressed in a generally glowing 2017 review of Rodrik's 'marvelous book' by economist and game theory expert Ariel Rubinstein, published in the Journal of Economic Literature, that 'One needs to be an outsider to criticize Economics but one needs to be an economist to do it sufficiently well so as not to be drawn astray by stereotypes', which doesn't seem to leave many people.", "Apparently Rodrik qualifies, despite or because of the fact that he 'belongs to the elite of the Economics academic establishment'.", "Commandment/bargaining point #10, meanwhile, echoes the idea, also expressed above, that rudeness between economists is evidence of a 'very healthy discussion about methodology'.", "I'm assuming this doesn't include hate mail.", "Five things \u2026", "First, the main objection to the arguments made by economists concerns not the style, but the content.", "Second: as seen below, economists are not rude at all when it comes to questioning their leaders \u2013 in fact obsequious deference would seem to be a better description.", "Third: lack of civility (at least in itself) is not an indicator of healthy scientific debate, in the academy or in the playground.", "I'd say that advertising it probably reflects more an anxiety about appearing robustly scientific.", "Fourth: in his 2006 book The Trouble With Physics, physicist Lee Smolin notes that string theorists cultivate a 'brash, aggressive, and competitive atmosphere', though he doesn't see it as an advantage.", "He also detects a 'blatant prejudice' against hiring women.", "Could these be related \u2013 and could macho posturing be a similar problem in economics?", "According to one article, by economist Miles Kimball and an untenured female economist who didn't want to be identified in case it hurt her career, some male economists 'may not even realize all the ways they routinely put others down \u2013 especially those in vulnerable positions who dare not strike back'.", "Finally, and related, rudeness might be fine between equals, but one of the functions of social graces is to help deal with asymmetrical power relationships, of the sort encountered in economics departments.", "A 2015 investigation at the University of Manitoba, for example, concluded that while the department head, an orthodox economist, had insisted 'that he was committed to maintaining diversity', his subsequent actions resulted in a change of climate that had the opposite effect.", "This ultimately led among other things to 'a violation of academic freedom when orthodox members of the department behaved in ways that discriminated against doctoral students being supervised by heterodox economists'.", "According to one professor there was 'serious bullying going on' including threats to interfere with the tenure process.", "No wonder the students are calling for revolt (they're so rude).", "Economic depression", "It therefore comes as something of a relief to us critics that some economists at least may be proceeding to the penultimate, more passive stage of the grief process, depression.", "Evidence is provided by a paper by Paul Romer, 'The Trouble With Macroeconomics' (he had also been reading Smolin's book, hence the title), a 2016 preprint of which caused a considerable stir in economics circles.", "Sounding almost Economyths-like in style, the first sentence of the abstract announces that 'For more than three decades, macroeconomics has gone backwards'.", "It goes on to describe the author's 'pessimistic assessment of regression into pseudoscience' and mention the 'serious failure' of top economists.", "Decidedly non-upbeat section titles include 'Post-Real Models', 'Loyalty Can Corrode The Norms of Science', 'Back to Square One', and 'The Trouble Ahead For All of Economics'.", "No concrete solutions are proposed for what sounds, to an outsider, like a rather dysfunctional state of affairs.", "In the same way that elegant but unfalsifiable string theory has, as Smolin showed, taken over high-energy physics, so mainstream economics has increasingly emphasised elegant but unfalsifiable mathematical models over experimental reality.", "Most of the parameters in the models cannot be determined from observations, but are simply made up to give the desired answers.", "Events such as crashes are assumed to be caused by external shocks, rather than internal dynamics.", "The models can't make sense out of even basic things like monetary policy, which according to theory \u2013 since money plays no significant role in these models \u2013 should have little

the Economics Profession Is Coming to Terms with Its Role in the Great Financial Crisis", "## It's time for mainstream economists to relax the defenses and open up a little.", "By David Orrell", "Swiss psychiatrist Elisabeth K\u00fcbler-Ross, a pioneer in the field of grief counselling, identified the five stages of grief as denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance.", "This extract from Economyths draws on her model of grief as inspiration to chart the long, arduous, but ultimately healthy and healing (we hope, it's not over yet) process as the economics profession slowly comes to terms with its role in the Great Financial Crisis.", "The ten years since the first tremors of the crisis began in 2007 have been a difficult journey, not just for the world economy, but also for the economics profession.", "The status of the field had never been higher than in the two decades preceding the crisis, during what Ben Bernanke and others called the Great Moderation.", "Inflation and macroeconomic volatility seemed to be under control, and total national income was growing at an almost steady rate (the fact that total debt was growing even faster was less remarked upon).", "In 2002, Alan Greenspan received an honorary knighthood from the Queen for 'his outstanding contribution to global economic stability'.", "The following year, Nobel laureate Robert Lucas, famous for his theory of 'rational expectations', told his audience: 'My thesis in this lecture is that macroeconomics in this original sense has succeeded: Its central problem of depression prevention has been solved, for all practical purposes, and has in fact been solved for many decades.", "'With its firm grounding in mathematical rigour", ", economics was the undisputed queen of the social sciences.", "##### Get Evonomics in your inbox", "Economists were therefore more than a little surprised by what jurist and economist Richard Posner \u2013 author of books including the aptly-named A Failure of Capitalism: The Crisis of '08 and the Descent into Depression \u2013 inventories as 'the bursting of the housing bubble (they didn't know it was a bubble), the ensuing banking collapse, the stock market crash, the sharp decline in output and employment, the global scope of the crisis, and the onset of deflation in the late fall of 2008 that created fears of a depression comparable to the Great Depression of the 1930s'.", "According to James Heckman from the University of Chicago, 'Everybody here was blindsided by the magnitude of what happened.", "But it wasn't just here.", "The entire profession was blindsided.'", "Indeed, the crisis came as a traumatic event that left mainstream economists in what Greenspan called 'a state of shocked disbelief'.", "Models which were based on assumptions of stability, equilibrium and efficiency were of little use when markets were cratering, real estate was sinking into the mud, and oil and food were spiking.", "And since that time, economists have been working their way slowly and painfully through the different stages or aspects of the grief process, as they realise that their elegant models not only failed to predict the crisis, but also helped to create it.", "When Economyths first came out, most economists were in a state of denial \u2013 especially those at the top of the profession.", "Future laureate Tom Sargent said in a 2010 interview \"It is just wrong to say that this financial crisis caught modern macroeconomists by surprise.\"", "(No mention of whether the non-modern macroeconomists saw it coming too.)", "Laureate Robert Lucas preferred to see the unpredictability as a natural result of future laureate Eugene Fama's efficient market hypothesis (though as Posner notes, that didn't stop him from predicting, shortly after Lehman's collapse, that the crisis would soon go away).Fama", "agreed that the efficient market hypothesis 'did quite well in this episode'.", "The Nobel committee apparently agreed too.", "As reality sank in, economists soon began lashing out in anger at anyone who dared criticise their field, including yours truly (I'm going to talk about this because it seems to be quite a general problem).", "At Canada's top-ranked economics blog Worthwhile Canadian Initiative, for example, a group of prominent academics, including regular contributors to national publications (Globe and Mail, National Post, Maclean's, Literary Review of Canada, etc.),shared their professional thoughts about the book online.", "Descriptors used included idiotic, ignorant, intellectually lazy, juvenile, random, rubbish, semi-articulated, and 'sort of like Malcolm Gladwell without the insight' \u2013 ouch.", "Someone even compared me to a climate change denier (not uncommon, as it turns out).", "One commenter described the online book burning as part of a widely-deployed 'shoot the messenger' strategy against critics.", "Which is fine \u2013 we give as good as we get, and at least they don't grade us.", "But what was interesting about their discussion was the way these academics, who hailed from top universities such as British Columbia, Carleton, Laval, and so on, managed to maintain the illusion that they were being incredibly tolerant and open to criticism.", "As one put it, 'Economists welcome criticism.", "In the academy, we are well-known, if not infamous, for being direct, abrupt, and rude in criticizing each other (and others).", "There is a very healthy discussion about methodology.", "Bring it on.'", "But they confused academic bickering with genuine criticism from people who share none of their biases.", "The site linked to an even more vituperative blog review by an economics professor at the University of Victoria who of course took pains to say that economics 'benefits from criticism', as long as it's the right type, a topic we discuss further below.", "(Fortunately I was spared the electronic 'viruses and hate mail' which have apparently afflicted other critics of mainstream economics.)", "And that was about it for thoughtful response from the country's economics establishment, at least until former Deputy Governor of the Bank of Canada William White (now at OECD) \u2013 one of the few people who warned of the financial crisis \u2013 cited the paperback edition as a Bloomberg Best Book of 2013, perhaps out of sympathy.", "Let's make a deal", "As anger started to burn out, the next stage of the drawn-out and generally exhausting grief process involved bargaining: both with the future \u2013 perhaps we can put things right \u2013 and in a kind of retroactive bargaining with the past, saying that the event would not have occurred if only something had been done differently.", "One common argument, anticipated in the book's introductory chapter, was that there is nothing wrong with economics per se, the problem is one of poor communication: the field's critics just don't understand the full rich diversity of economic thought, and are attacking a simplified caricature.", "A good illustration of this approach was the 2015 book Economics Rules by Dani Rodrik from Harvard.", "Echoing Lionel Robbins \u2013 who called economic man an 'expository device' in 1932 \u2013 Rodrick explains that the reason student groups such as the Post-Crash Economics Society are frustrated is that introductory economics courses offer only a pared down version of the theory and give 'little sense of the diversity of conclusions in economics'.", "Also most economists are poor at presenting their arguments to the public, because they 'see themselves as scientists and researchers whose job it is to write academic papers'.", "Rodrik does note the existence of a 'guild mentality' in economics which 'renders the profession insular and immune to outside criticism', and observes in a couple of places that 'Only card-carrying members of the profession are viewed as legitimate participants in economic debates'.", "Yet later he cites the influence of behavioural psychologists and so on to conclude that 'the view of economics as an insular, inbred discipline closed to outside influence is more caricature than reality'.", "(Pardon?)", "The overall impression is one of bemusement at all the fuss.", "After making a number of good points about models, the book concludes with 'Ten Commandments' (aka 'bargaining points') for economists, and ten for non-economists.", "Some of these are very sensible \u2013 #3 from the latter list, for example, says: 'Analysis requires simplicity; beware of incoherence that passes itself off as complexity.'", "Others are versions of common defences against critics, e.g. #9: 'If you think all economists think alike, attend one of their seminars', and #10: 'If you think economists are especially rude to noneconomists, attend one of their seminars.'", "These are surely well-meant and sound fairly innocuous, unless you're afraid of economics seminars, but they come up all the time in different guises and it's worth inspecting them a little more closely.", "The first is a polite variation of the 'caricature' or 'straw man' argument, implying that economics is far more diverse and complicated than it appears to an outsider.", "However, the fact that economists do not agree on every point does not somehow innoculate the field against criticism; and the claim or implication that non-economists don't fully understand the subject, and need to attend a seminar or take a course to appreciate its mysteries, often boils down to a debating or avoidance tactic (and obviously doesn't apply to the increasing number of critics from within the field's own ranks).", "It also leads to the catch-22, perfectly expressed in a generally glowing 2017 review of Rodrik's 'marvelous book' by economist and game theory expert Ariel Rubinstein, published in the Journal of Economic Literature, that 'One needs to be an outsider to criticize Economics but one needs to be an economist to do it sufficiently well so as not to be drawn astray by stereotypes', which doesn't seem to leave many people.", "Apparently Rodrik qualifies, despite or because of the fact that he 'belongs to the elite of the Economics academic establishment'.", "Commandment/bargaining point #10, meanwhile, echoes the idea, also expressed above, that rudeness between economists is evidence of a 'very healthy discussion about methodology'.", "I'm assuming this doesn't include hate mail.", "Five things \u2026", "First, the main objection to the arguments made by economists concerns not the style, but the content.", "Second: as seen below, economists are not rude at all when it comes to questioning their leaders \u2013 in fact obsequious deference would seem to be a better description.", "Third: lack of civility (at least in itself) is not an indicator of healthy scientific debate, in the academy or in the playground.", "I'd say that advertising it probably reflects more an anxiety about appearing robustly scientific.", "Fourth: in his 2006 book The Trouble With Physics, physicist Lee Smolin notes that string theorists cultivate a 'brash, aggressive, and competitive atmosphere', though he doesn't see it as an advantage.", "He also detects a 'blatant prejudice' against hiring women.", "Could these be related \u2013 and could macho posturing be a similar problem in economics?", "According to one article, by economist Miles Kimball and an untenured female economist who didn't want to be identified in case it hurt her career, some male economists 'may not even realize all the ways they routinely put others down \u2013 especially those in vulnerable positions who dare not strike back'.", "Finally, and related, rudeness might be fine between equals, but one of the functions of social graces is to help deal with asymmetrical power relationships, of the sort encountered in economics departments.", "A 2015 investigation at the University of Manitoba, for example, concluded that while the department head, an orthodox economist, had insisted 'that he was committed to maintaining diversity', his subsequent actions resulted in a change of climate that had the opposite effect.", "This ultimately led among other things to 'a violation of academic freedom when orthodox members of the department behaved in ways that discriminated against doctoral students being supervised by heterodox economists'.", "According to one professor there was 'serious bullying going on' including threats to interfere with the tenure process.", "No wonder the students are calling for revolt (they're so rude).", "Economic depression", "It therefore comes as something of a relief to us critics that some economists at least may be proceeding to the penultimate, more passive stage of the grief process, depression.", "Evidence is provided by a paper by Paul Romer, 'The Trouble With Macroeconomics' (he had also been reading Smolin's book, hence the title), a 2016 preprint of which caused a considerable stir in economics circles.", "Sounding almost Economyths-like in style, the first sentence of the abstract announces that 'For more than three decades, macroeconomics has gone backwards'.", "It goes on to describe the author's 'pessimistic assessment of regression into pseudoscience' and mention the 'serious failure' of top economists.", "Decidedly non-upbeat section titles include 'Post-Real Models', 'Loyalty Can Corrode The Norms of Science', 'Back to Square One', and 'The Trouble Ahead For All of Economics'.", "No concrete solutions are proposed for what sounds, to an outsider, like a rather dysfunctional state of affairs.", "In the same way that elegant but unfalsifiable string theory has, as Smolin showed, taken over high-energy physics, so mainstream economics has increasingly emphasised elegant but unfalsifiable mathematical models over experimental reality.", "Most of the parameters in the models cannot be determined from observations, but are simply made up to give the desired answers.", "Events such as crashes are assumed to be caused by external shocks, rather than internal dynamics.", "The models can't make sense out of even basic things like monetary policy, which according to theory \u2013 since money plays no significant role in these models \u2013 should have little or no effect.", "However, the problems are as much sociological as they are mathematical.", "Just as string theory is characterised by what Smolin described as 'groupthink' about the correct way to approach problems, so some economists see it as 'an extremely serious violation of some honor code for anyone to criticize openly a revered authority figure \u2026", "neither facts that are false, nor predictions that are wrong, nor models that make no sense matter enough to worry about'.", "Romer, who is now chief economist at the World Bank, notes that he sees himself more as a practitioner rather than an academic, so feels free to speak out and tell it like it is, but many people are afraid to criticise a 'revered leader' because of the 'unpleasant reaction' that it may evoke.", "He relates a story of running into a colleague who was so angry with him for criticising a paper by Robert Lucas that 'at first he could not speak.", "Eventually, he told me, \"You are killing Bob.\"'", "Yikes.", "So much for that self-image of economists being open to criticism.", "In fact Romer says he was inspired to write the paper after seeing a documentary about the Church of Scientology.", "Paul Mason observed in The Guardian that Romer's paper is important because he is not an outsider or a rebel, but 'a doyen of the profession, and from the heart of the US academic mainstream'.", "As Bloomberg commented, 'along came one of the leading practitioners of his generation, to say that the skeptics were onto something'.", "Which, speaking as one such sceptic, is certainly appreciated.", "In fact in some respects Romer probably goes further \u2013 even I didn't sum an economic argument up as: 'Assume A, assume B, \u2026 blah blah blah \u2026", "And so we have proven that P is true.'", "However, while it is refreshing that some in the mainstream are facing up to these problems, and Romer's paper is written with great courage, a dose of dark humour, and an obvious concern for the state of economics, there is in fact little acknowledgement that these issues have long been debated and solutions proposed outside of the mainstream; and as argued in this book, it is exactly this deafness to other voices which is at the root of the 'trouble with economics', and the reason it has taken so long to confront the fact that there might be a serious problem, let alone actually do something about it.", "The path to acceptance", "Of course, depression is a state of mind that involves turning inwards.", "But for an area as insular as mainstream economics, the final stage of the

version, as well as downloadable content.", "There isn't a shortage of speculation about how much MTV paid for the rights to the Beatles catalog, but sources say the design and motion-capture work was just as expensive as the licensing costs in the eight-figure budget.", "Without directly addressing the game's costs, MTV's DeGooyer says the deal is structured so both parties stand to profit.",

of \"Rock Band,\" nor will \"Rock Band\" music be playable on the Beatles game.", "But the plastic instruments that come with the Beatles game will work with other versions of \"Rock Band,\" which customers can buy as a disc.", "Each downloadable Beatles album will cost $17, with individual songs going for $2.", "MTV typically keeps about 70% of the price of downloadable content purchased through \"Rock Band.\"", "Although the Beatles are believed to have received a better deal, this is still a very profitable business.", "The entire music-game category has suffered a 46% decline in year-over-year revenue through July of this year, according to the NPD Group, causing some to question whether music games are just a passing fad.", "But much of this decline is due to sales migrating from expensive first-time hardware purchases to software sales that consist of new music either in the form of downloadable content or expansion discs.", "And NPD's figures don't include the revenue made from downloadable content.", "'GOT TO GET YOU INTO MY LIFE'", "The future of music games depends on attracting newcomers, which is why the Beatles game is so important to MTV.", "\"It has to be for older people,\" Wedbush Morgan's Pachter says.", "\"They're sitting around waiting for something to come along that appeals to them.", "So they're 40-something people that have looked at 'Guitar Hero' but are not sure why they want to learn Aerosmith or Metallica songs.", "They see this and think, 'I can get into this.'", "The game's developers went to great lengths to appeal to this demographic by removing many of the \"game\" elements from the Beatles title.", "While \"Rock Band\" has players earning points for accuracy and being rewarded with virtual money to spend on such band essentials as a van or instruments, the Beatles game is fully experiential.", "There's no \"goal\" or \"boss\" or even points.", "You just play.", "The Beatles music should attract new gamers, and the way the band used the title to tell its story could also inspire others artists to get creative in this new medium.", "From their formation in 1959 to their 1970 breakup, the Beatles always experimented with whatever medium was driving rock music at the time.", "Their rise to fame was driven by concerts, their greatest success came from studio albums.", "And now, despite having skipped digital downloading, the Fab Four stand poised to master yet another format -- interactive media.", "\"I look at the musical landscape and say, 'There's the Beatles and everybody else,' \" Bandier

the plunge into the world of gaming.", "Pearl Jam plans to release its new album as downloadable \"Rock Band\" content the same day it arrives in stores.", "And the new Rock Band Network allows any

originally developed by Harmonix, was launched in 2005 and has since sold more than 25 million copies, making it the market leader.", "But with the Beatles in its stable, Harmonix believes it has pulled off the ultimate coup.", "Songs by the Rolling Stones and the Who were already on Rock Band, but neither of those bands were controlled by the byzantine structure that is Apple Corps Ltd, the company that has handled all of the Beatles' creative activity since 1968.", "But Apple has always had a canny eye for the innovative and the lucrative, and a neat way of relaunching the Beatles for each new generation (the last time it was the exhaustive Anthology project in 1995).", "The main problem was not the concept but the technicalities.", "\"Apple said to us, 'We don't even want to talk about this any more unless you come up with a solution to separating out some of the earlier songs,'\" DeGooyer remembers.", "Rock Band requires each of the main instruments to be played in isolation, but on the Beatles early hits the drums and guitars would often be recorded on the same piece of tape.", "Dhani Harrison believed that the CIA would have some sort of technology to separate them, but in the end a solution was proffered by a company in Cambridge, England, called Cedar.", "There was also the problem of security.", "Apple would not permit the Beatles' master recordings to leave the studio vaults, much less travel to Boston, so once the tracks had been separated out they then had to be encrypted.", "In the summer of 2007, Harmonix received five songs to play with: I Want to Hold Your Hand, Helter Skelter, Taxman, Revolution and Here Comes the Sun.", "The plan was for Harmonix to show how the game might work, and to conceive a rough idea of how an animated Beatles might look on screen.", "The songs came with instructions.", "\"Apple gave us some guidelines to stick to,\" says Josh Randall, Harmonix's creative director.", "\"They said it needs to feel analogue, it needs to feel British, and even though it's a videogame, it shouldn't feel computery.", "But we should also try to make something new \u2013 not just go back and rehash the old stuff.\"", "In the end, the visual team produced a presentation based around Day Tripper, which was the first the Beatles saw of the game when they gathered at Abbey Road in summer 2008.", "\"From each of them there were just tons and tons of ideas,\" says Rigopulos.", "\"They said: 'Oh, you could do this, you could do that, you could do this", "\u2026'", "\"We did get very hands-on,\" McCartney says.", "\"We said: 'Show us everything \u2013 how does it work?'", "They said: 'If you attain a degree of efficiency you'll then get points, and your prize will be trivia facts about the Beatles.'", "I said: 'Oh great \u2013

it's not our responsibility.", "But this is going to go out in our name, so we really have to be careful.\"", "According to Rigopulos, McCartney asked a lot of pointed questions.", "\"He wasn't aloof at all.", "He really did care about accuracy.", "There were some ideas we had about mixing and matching times and places that intentionally disregarded historical accuracy, and he put his stake in the ground.", "We said: 'Maybe the rooftop concert can have songs performed that actually you guys didn't perform on the rooftop.'", "And he said: 'No.", "There are some things we can play with, but some aspects of the design we should be true to.'\"", "In the game, the Beatles are animated in imaginative ways.", "Given the band's history with Yellow Submarine, this will not be unfamiliar territory for the older player, but it caused a lot of heartache at Harmonix.", "McCartney is a keen fan of modern animation, not least because he watches films with his grandchildren and the five-year-old daughter he shares with Heather Mills.", "He felt that the early work was not hugely impressive.", "\"We said: 'Look, the eyes don't work.'", "They said: 'No, eyes are very hard to do\u2026.'", "Then: 'Wait a minute, John's too wooden\u2026'", "I started to say, 'Look, Shrek's good.", "There's this great thing, Arthur and the Invisibles, the Luc Besson film.'", "So I started to give them things to aim at.\"", "Josh Randall says that all the Beatles and their wives were heavily involved.", "Talking on the phone from Henley-on-Thames, Olivia Harrison will tell me later that she thought there was a problem with the proportions in early drawings of George's face.", "\"I started to look at photos to see where they went wrong.", "I thought they could capture those eyes, and get that little bit of a crooked smile.\"", "She had played the game with Dhani in LA and was eager to have another go in private.", "\"It makes you appreciate music a little deeper.", "We don't have a band, but the music exists, and I don't see any harm in letting people have another way of experiencing it.\"", "It was Yoko Ono who apparently caused the most problems with the game's designers.", "Alex Rigopulos remembers one visit to their office during which Ono reminded them how windy the rooftop concert was, necessitating changes to the band's hair.", "There were other corrections: \"She would tell our animation guys how John would approach the mic, how heavy his eyes would be, giving them quite a hard time.", "But at the end she said to them, 'It's OK \u2013 I'm an artist too.'\"", "From Tokyo, by email, Yoko later responds to my questions.", "\"We, especially Olivia and I, were very caring about how the images of the Beatles were represented, as well as the music,\" she says.", "\"The Harmonix people were keen to involve us.", "I think they were really happy that we wanted to integrate ourselves so much into the project.\"", "She hasn't had time to play the game, but promises to \"explore it properly\" when she finishes promoting her new album.", "\"As a parent myself, I am very aware of the highly educational aspect of this game,\" she says.", "\"It will inspire and encourage the young generation to be intimately involved in music making.", "You can't ask for more.", "It will be another musical revolution created by the Beatles to make our planet a planet of music.\"", "The last key figure in the making of the game was Giles Martin, the son of George Martin.", "His remixing of the Beatles hits for the Love project (the Beatles collaboration with Cirque du Soleil in Las Vegas) had earned him the trust of the band, and he acted as the middleman between Apple and Harmonix, helping to select tracks for the game and create new precise endings for songs that had previously faded out.", "He too was initially suspicious of the idea.", "\"I was thinking, 'Am I making a Beatles Zippo lighter or a Beatles plastic tray?'", "I was snooty about it at first \u2013 'Oh God, we're just making a game.'", "There's part of me, being a musician, that wants to say, 'Why don't you go and play a proper guitar and not play a plastic one?'", "But what I do like about it is that it makes us listen to the music again and again, in the way that we used to when we bought albums.", "As opposed to having 3,000 songs on your iPod which you flick through with obsessive button pressing.", "These days we do hear a lot of music, but we don't actually listen to it very often.\"", "Giles Martin told me he was surprised, when he tried to play I Want to Hold Your Hand, at just how complex the bass line was.", "I knew what he meant.", "At the end of my first day at Harmonix, I entered the company's Star Chamber, where the games are tested.", "It is also the room where staff come to relax after a hard day's struggle with Ringo's cymbal crashes and George's eyelids.", "Shortly before I was joined by publicity and other staff for a \"concert\", I picked up a replica of McCartney's Hofner bass propped up on a leather sofa.", "This had been designed on a slightly reduced scale by Matthew Reineck, who also makes real guitars.", "The Hofner and the scaled-down models of Lennon's Rickenbacker, Harrison's Gretsch and Ringo's Ludwig drums were plastic, but they felt OK in the hand.", "Reineck explained that McCartney's bass had been made with great attention to detail (Hofner had supplied a special sample of the wood grain), but there were also variations.", "Unlike the original, the guitar was designed for a right-handed player, and it came with a \"whammy bar\" to enable nice sustain effects and ensure \"backwards compatibility\" with other Rock Band games.", "\"McCartney reviewed it halfway through the design process,\" Reineck said, \"and he didn't have an issue with it.\"", "The Hofner will come bundled in a big box with Ringo's drums and a microphone with stand, and will retail for \u00a3180.", "The Rickenbacker and the Gretsch will each cost \u00a390, while the game just on its own (requiring the use of older Rock Band instruments) will cost either \u00a340 or \u00a350 depending on the console.", "As Reineck was talking, various people arrived in the room and strapped on their wireless guitars.", "One of them inserted a disk in the machine, and apologised for a slight technical glitch: the Rickenbacker had run out of batteries, a dilemma the Fab Four had rarely encountered.", "I was surprised how much visual information is displayed on the screen all at once \u2013 it was like a musical satnav.", "It helps if you have a big TV; in fact, it is hard to see how the game could have existed before we all went mad for massive flat screens.", "I was asked what song I fancied and I plumped for Sgt Pepper's, but as a singer.", "One man took pity on me and set the difficulty level to Easy.", "(The game has five levels: Easy, Medium, Hard, Expert and No Fail, the latter a sort of training-wheels option to ensure the cloth-eared are not discouraged.)", "The music began, that familiar chugging.", "I began singing \u2013 that familiar awful sound.", "But I was keen, and it was less fraught than regular karaoke (you don't have to be drunk for a start), and I became a part of the act I'd known for all these years.", "I appeared to get the right words at the right time, and when the song ended (this took a while, as of course it segued into With a Little Help From My Friends) the screen showed I had scored 99 out of 100.", "Vaguely preposterous, but I had made my small contribution to unlocking a rare photograph of the Beatles in the studio with information about the first time they all sported moustaches, and once I had enough of these I would unlock some rare audio of the Beatles goading each other about messing up an intro.", "Glowing with success, I had a shot at Get Back.", "Not so good; only 97%; the rare photograph of George Harrison playing sitar on Magical Mystery Tour would have to wait.", "Overall, I wasn't so sure this was a good hobby for a grown man.", "The future of music?", "Others seemed to think so.", "I asked Olivia Harrison what George would have made of it.", "\"I

history.", "Or perhaps his memory had become sharper as he aged.", "I said that I had always thought the look was Brian Epstein's idea.", "He said: \"I don't think it was.\"", "He explained that the suits may have been Epstein's thing, as it was the only way they could get the better-paid gigs, but McCartney thought the idea of all looking the same was probably his own.", "\"When we showed up at a gig, we would come in like this [regular street clothes], and then we'd get the boots and the suits, and suddenly we were the four-headed monster, and it was a very exciting feeling.", "We'd look at

and Cynthia Sexton, executive VP of global brand partnerships at EMI, into the planning and development process along with the Apple Corps shareholders.", "\"While it was critical to work with Apple and the Beatles, we didn't want to take for granted the other rights holders would go along with them,\" DeGooyer says.", "\"They all needed to understand exactly what we were doing and have input.", "When you have that many rights holders involved in a catalog, it's not obvious that their interests align at all points.\"", "The results of this process are evident in the game.", "In addition to the 45 songs from the band's catalog -- more from one act than any other music-based game yet released -- the title brings a level of detail not yet seen in a music-based game.", "Each band member is animated in striking detail, down to the way their eyes and hair move while playing.", "Scenes of the Beatles' performances in Liverpool's Cavern Club and New York's Shea Stadium include the actual crowd noise from each venue.", "The game's re-creation of the Beatles recording in Abbey Road's famed Studio 2 includes never-before-heard banter among the band as it recorded its later work.", "Trivia about the act is included as unlockable bonus material, along with previously unreleased photos, audio and video.", "Perhaps most remarkably, the Beatles will allow fans to buy at least a portion of their music in digital form as extra downloadable content for the game, starting with \"Abbey Road\" Oct. 20 and followed by \"Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band\" and \"Rubber Soul\" in November and December, respectively.", "\"Everyone realized doing this game was really a significant event in bringing the Beatles into the 21st century,\" Sony/ATV's Bandier says.", "\"This is an enormous opportunity, because for a moment in time, it will be the only legitimate place where you can get the music in a digital form.\"", "'REVOLUTION'", "Legacy aside, the Beatles hope the game will generate profits for them as well.", "And the band will make money on the music included in the game, but also on likeness and for the downloadable music being made available later.", "The many versions of the game include a $250 deluxe edition with plastic signed replicas of McCartney's Hofner bass guitar and Starr's Ludwig drums (George Harrison's Gretsch Duo Jet and John Lennon's Rickenbacker will be sold separately for $100 each).", "That's $90 more than the $160 \"value\" package that includes basic \"Rock Band\" instruments.", "There's also a $60 disc-only version for consumers who have existing \"Rock Band\" or \"Guitar Hero\" instruments.", "Sales expectations are high.", "Wedbush Morgan Securities videogame analyst Michael Pachter estimates the game will sell 5 million copies by year's end, with the disc-only version moving 3.5 million and the deluxe and standard versions selling 1.5 million

version, as well as downloadable content.", "There isn't a shortage of speculation about how much MTV paid for the rights to the Beatles catalog, but sources say the design and motion-capture work was just as expensive as the licensing costs in the eight-figure budget.", "Without directly addressing the game's costs, MTV's DeGooyer says the deal is structured so both parties stand to profit.",

of \"Rock Band,\" nor will \"Rock Band\" music be playable on the Beatles game.", "But the plastic instruments that come with the Beatles game will work with other versions of \"Rock Band,\" which customers can buy as a disc.", "Each downloadable Beatles album will cost $17, with individual songs going for $2.", "MTV typically keeps about 70% of the price of downloadable content purchased through \"Rock Band.\"", "Although the Beatles are believed to have received a better deal, this is still a very profitable business.", "The entire music-game category has suffered a 46% decline in year-over-year revenue through July of this year, according to the NPD Group, causing some to question whether music games are just a passing fad.", "But much of this decline is due to sales migrating from expensive first-time hardware purchases to software sales that consist of new music either in the form of downloadable content or expansion discs.", "And NPD's figures don't include the revenue made from downloadable content.", "'GOT TO GET YOU INTO MY LIFE'", "The future of music games depends on attracting newcomers, which is why the Beatles game is so important to MTV.", "\"It has to be for older people,\" Wedbush Morgan's Pachter says.", "\"They're sitting around waiting for something to come along that appeals to them.", "So they're 40-something people that have looked at 'Guitar Hero' but are not sure why they want to learn Aerosmith or Metallica songs.", "They see this and think, 'I can get into this.'", "The game's developers went to great lengths to appeal to this demographic by removing many of the \"game\" elements from the Beatles title.", "While \"Rock Band\" has players earning points for accuracy and being rewarded with virtual money to spend on such band essentials as a van or instruments, the Beatles game is fully experiential.", "There's no \"goal\" or \"boss\" or even points.", "You just play.", "The Beatles music should attract new gamers, and the way the band used the title to tell its story could also inspire others artists to get creative in this new medium.", "From their formation in 1959 to their 1970 breakup, the Beatles always experimented with whatever medium was driving rock music at the time.", "Their rise to fame was driven by concerts, their greatest success came from studio albums.", "And now, despite having skipped digital downloading, the Fab Four stand poised to master yet another format -- interactive media.", "\"I look at the musical landscape and say, 'There's the Beatles and everybody else,' \" Bandier says.", "\"I don't think you can find another artist that you can use a chronology of their life and events in the same way.\"", "Even so, the Beatles will almost certainly inspire other bands to take the plunge into the world of gaming.", "Pearl Jam plans to release its new album as downloadable \"Rock Band\" content the same day it arrives in stores.", "And the new Rock Band Network allows any band to create and sell music as it likes through MTV's system.", "\"It would be great if people look at this a year from now and say, 'I want to play my favorite song in this format,' \" DeGooyer

strum, with the coloured notes on the screen corresponding to buttons on your guitar.", "It is the digital version of the pub or campfire singalong, the 21st-century upgrade of the Victorian family

pulled off the ultimate coup.", "Songs by the Rolling Stones and the Who were already on Rock Band, but neither of those bands were controlled by the byzantine structure that is Apple Corps Ltd, the company that has handled all of the Beatles' creative activity since 1968.", "But Apple has always had a canny eye for the innovative and the lucrative, and a neat way of relaunching the Beatles for each new generation (the last time it was the exhaustive Anthology project in 1995).", "The main problem was not the concept but the technicalities.", "\"Apple said to us, 'We don't even want to talk about this any more unless you come up with a solution to separating out some of the earlier songs,'\" DeGooyer remembers.", "Rock Band requires each of the main instruments to be played in isolation, but on the Beatles early hits the drums and guitars would often be recorded on the same piece of tape.", "Dhani Harrison believed that the CIA would have some sort of technology to separate them, but in the end a solution was proffered by a company in Cambridge, England, called Cedar.", "There was also the problem of security.", "Apple would not permit the Beatles' master recordings to leave the studio vaults, much less travel to Boston, so once the tracks had been separated out they then had to be encrypted.", "In the summer of 2007, Harmonix received five songs to play with: I Want to Hold Your Hand, Helter Skelter, Taxman, Revolution and Here Comes the Sun.", "The plan was for Harmonix to show how the game might work, and to conceive a rough idea of how an animated Beatles might look on screen.", "The songs came with instructions.", "\"Apple gave us some guidelines to stick to,\" says Josh Randall, Harmonix's creative director.", "\"They said it needs to feel analogue, it needs to feel British, and even though it's a videogame, it shouldn't feel computery.", "But we should also try to make something new \u2013 not just go back and rehash the old stuff.\"", "In the end, the visual team produced a presentation based around Day Tripper, which was the first the Beatles saw of the game when they gathered at Abbey Road in summer 2008.", "\"From each of them there were just tons and tons of ideas,\" says Rigopulos.", "\"They said: 'Oh, you could do this, you could do that, you could do this", "\u2026'", "\"We did get very hands-on,\" McCartney says.", "\"We said: 'Show us everything \u2013 how does it work?'", "They said: 'If you attain a degree of efficiency you'll then get points, and your prize will be trivia facts about the Beatles.'", "I said: 'Oh great \u2013 show us them.'", "So they showed me one and I went, 'Oh, that's wrong.'", "It was the first one up.", "\"Some things you just do 'em: somebody's doing a book or something \u2013 we'll help them, but it's not our responsibility.", "But this is going to go out in our name, so we really have to be careful.\"", "According to Rigopulos, McCartney asked a lot of pointed questions.", "\"He wasn't aloof at all.", "He really did care about accuracy.", "There were some ideas we had about mixing and matching times and places that intentionally disregarded historical accuracy, and he put his stake in the ground.", "We said: 'Maybe the rooftop concert can have songs performed that actually you guys didn't perform on the rooftop.'", "And he said: 'No.", "There are some things we can play with, but some aspects of the design we should be true to.'\"", "In the game, the Beatles are animated in imaginative ways.", "Given the band's history with Yellow Submarine, this will not be unfamiliar territory for the older player, but it caused a lot of heartache at Harmonix.", "McCartney is a keen fan of modern animation, not least because he watches films with his grandchildren and the five-year-old daughter he shares with Heather Mills.", "He felt that the early work was not hugely impressive.", "\"We said: 'Look, the eyes don't work.'", "They said: 'No, eyes are very hard to do\u2026.'", "Then: 'Wait a minute, John's too wooden\u2026'", "I started to say, 'Look, Shrek's good.", "There's this great thing, Arthur and the Invisibles, the Luc Besson film.'", "So I started to give them things to aim at.\"", "Josh Randall says that all the Beatles and their wives were heavily involved.", "Talking on the phone from Henley-on-Thames, Olivia Harrison will tell me later that she thought there was a problem with the proportions in early drawings of George's face.", "\"I started to look at photos to see where they went wrong.", "I thought they could capture those eyes, and get that little bit of a crooked smile.\"", "She had played the game with Dhani in LA and was eager to have another go in private.", "\"It makes you appreciate music a little deeper.", "We don't have a band, but the music exists, and I don't see any harm in letting people have another way of experiencing it.\"", "It was Yoko Ono who apparently caused the most problems with the game's designers.", "Alex Rigopulos remembers one visit to their office during which Ono reminded them how windy the rooftop concert was, necessitating changes to the band's hair.", "There were other corrections: \"She would tell our animation guys how John would approach the mic, how heavy his eyes would be, giving them quite a hard time.", "But at the end she said to them, 'It's OK \u2013 I'm an artist too.'\"", "From Tokyo, by email, Yoko later responds to my questions.", "\"We, especially Olivia and I, were very caring about how the images of the Beatles were represented, as well as the music,\" she says.", "\"The Harmonix people were keen to involve us.", "I think they were really happy that we wanted to integrate ourselves so much into the project.\"", "She hasn't had time to play the game, but promises to \"explore it properly\" when she finishes promoting her new album.", "\"As a parent myself, I am very aware of the highly educational aspect of this game,\" she says.", "\"It will inspire and encourage the young generation to be intimately involved in music making.", "You can't ask for more.", "It will be another musical revolution created by the Beatles to make our planet a planet of music.\"", "The last key figure in the making of the game was Giles Martin, the son of George Martin.", "His remixing of the Beatles hits for the Love project (the Beatles collaboration with Cirque du Soleil in Las Vegas) had earned him the trust of the band, and he acted as the middleman between Apple and Harmonix, helping to select tracks for the game and create new precise endings for songs that had previously faded out.", "He too was initially suspicious of the idea.", "\"I was thinking, 'Am I making a Beatles Zippo lighter or a Beatles plastic tray?'", "I was snooty about it at first \u2013 'Oh God, we're just making a game.'", "There's part of me, being a musician, that wants to say, 'Why don't you go and play a proper guitar and not play a plastic one?'", "But what I do like about it is that it makes us listen to the music again and again, in the way that we used to when we bought albums.", "As opposed to having 3,000 songs on your iPod which you flick through with obsessive button pressing.", "These days we do hear a lot of music, but we don't actually listen to it very often.\"", "Giles Martin told me he was surprised, when he tried to play I Want to Hold Your Hand, at just how complex the bass line was.", "I knew what he meant.", "At the end of my first day at Harmonix, I entered the company's Star Chamber, where the games are tested.", "It is also the room where staff come to relax after a hard day's struggle with Ringo's cymbal crashes and George's eyelids.", "Shortly before I was joined by publicity and other staff for a \"concert\", I picked up a replica of McCartney's Hofner bass propped up on a leather sofa.", "This had been designed on a slightly reduced scale by Matthew Reineck, who also makes real guitars.", "The Hofner and the scaled-down models of Lennon's Rickenbacker, Harrison's Gretsch and Ringo's Ludwig drums were plastic, but they felt OK in the hand.", "Reineck explained that McCartney's bass had been made with great attention to detail (Hofner had supplied a special sample of the wood grain), but there were also variations.", "Unlike the original, the guitar was designed for a right-handed player, and it came with a \"whammy bar\" to enable nice sustain effects and ensure \"backwards compatibility\" with other Rock Band games.", "\"McCartney reviewed it halfway through the design process,\" Reineck said, \"and he didn't have an issue with it.\"", "The Hofner will come bundled in a big box with Ringo's drums and a microphone with stand, and will retail for \u00a3180.", "The Rickenbacker and the Gretsch will each cost \u00a390, while the game just on its own (requiring the use of older Rock Band instruments) will cost either \u00a340 or \u00a350 depending on the console.", "As Reineck was talking, various people arrived in the room and strapped on their wireless guitars.", "One of them inserted a disk in the machine, and apologised for a slight technical glitch: the Rickenbacker had run out of batteries, a dilemma the Fab Four had rarely encountered.", "I was surprised how much visual information is displayed on the screen all at once \u2013 it was like a musical satnav.", "It helps if you have a big TV; in fact, it is hard to see how the game could have existed before we all went mad for massive flat screens.", "I was asked what song I fancied and I plumped for Sgt Pepper's, but as a singer.", "One man took pity on me and set the difficulty level to Easy.", "(The game has five levels: Easy, Medium, Hard, Expert and No Fail, the latter a sort of training-wheels option to ensure the cloth-eared are not discouraged.)", "The music began, that familiar chugging.", "I began singing \u2013 that familiar awful sound.", "But I was keen, and it was less fraught than regular karaoke (you don't have to be drunk for a start), and I became a part of the act I'd known for all these years.", "I appeared to get the right words at the right time, and when the song ended (this took a while, as of course it segued into With a Little Help From My Friends) the screen showed I had scored 99 out of 100.", "Vaguely preposterous, but I had made my small contribution to unlocking a rare photograph of the Beatles in the studio with information about the first time they all sported moustaches, and once I had enough of these I would unlock some rare audio of the Beatles goading each other about messing up an intro.", "Glowing with success, I had a shot at Get Back.", "Not so good; only 97%; the rare photograph of George Harrison playing sitar on Magical Mystery Tour would have to wait.", "Overall, I wasn't so sure this was a good hobby for a grown man.", "The future of music?", "Others seemed to think so.", "I asked Olivia Harrison what George would have made of it.", "\"I hate to say, but I know I'm his biggest fan and biggest critic, and I'm happy with it.", "I think they did a great job, and if I didn't like it I would feel very uncomfortable.\"", "Yoko told me: \"People are always asking me what John would have thought of our new technology \u2013 email being our standard way of communication now etc.", "He would have loved it all.", "He was always for new ideas to give inspiration and encouragement to the world.", "He would have been excited about the Rock Band concept, and very happy with how the music and the visuals of the Beatles were represented.\"", "Given the likely success of Rock Band and the remastered catalogue, Marty Bandier, the chief executive of Sony/ATV publishing, said: \"The fourth quarter will belong to the Beatles.\"", "Backstage at Fenway Park, Paul McCartney is 90 minutes away from another night on stage.", "He is explaining how the Beatles got their look.", "\"When I was a kid, I went with my parents and my brother to Butlins Holiday Camp at Pwllheli.", "I had a vision\u2026 what do you call it?", "An epiphany.", "I was by the swimming pool, and we were such a funny family, a little bit Alan Bennett.", "From a door in one of the buildings, I see four guys walk out in a line.", "They were all dressed the same.", "They all had grey crew-neck sweaters, tartan twat hats (as we used to call them, like the Kangols everyone wears now), tartan shorts, and a rolled white towel under their arm.", "They just walked, and I thought, 'Holy shit!'", "They were in the talent show.", "Then I went to see them in the talent show, and they wore grey zoot suits, and they were from Gateshead, and they won.", "And I totally remember that.", "So when we came to be the Beatles, I said: 'You know what?' and I told everyone about this epiphany.", "And so we ended up in suits and we all wore the same.\"", "This was an unfamiliar yarn, and I was aware that McCartney had a reputation for reinterpreting history.", "Or perhaps his memory had become sharper as he aged.", "I said that I had always thought the look was Brian Epstein's idea.", "He said: \"I don't think it was.\"", "He explained that the suits may have been Epstein's thing, as it was the only way they could get the better-paid gigs, but McCartney thought the idea of all looking the same was probably his own.", "\"When we showed up at a gig, we would come in like this [regular street clothes], and then we'd get the boots and the suits, and suddenly we were the four-headed monster, and it was a very exciting feeling.", "We'd look at each other \u2013 wow!", "And we'd become more than the sum of the parts.", "We'd become the Beatles.\"", "The show that night was terrific.", "Thirty-five thousand people had an epiphany of their own.", "The concert also marked another Beatles milestone, for as McCartney sang Got to Get You Into My Life, from 1966, the vast screen behind him showed an animated film of the Beatles from 2009.",

part of the core catalogue when the first Beatles CDs were released in 1987, now boast a brighter, fuller sound.", "Some bad edits, dropouts and vocal pops are gone; but the odd cough, John muttering

more accurately you press the buttons on the fretboard and hit the drums, the more points you get.", "The screen displays not only the lyrics, but a long sequence of cues to tell you when to hit or strum, with the coloured notes on the screen corresponding to buttons on your guitar.", "It is the digital version of the pub or campfire singalong, the 21st-century upgrade of the Victorian family parlour concert.", "If you play well, you get mellifluous music that sounds like your heroes.", "If you sing out of tune, your friends may walk out on you.", "The Beatles: Rock Band takes things further.", "There are 45 songs to choose from, soon to be augmented by downloadable albums (in the following months you can get complete versions of Abbey Road, Sgt Pepper's and Rubber Soul).", "There are vocal harmonies, a complex innovation.", "There is very lovely animation that plays before the music begins and in the background after you start playing.", "There are six venues at which the songs are played (Cavern Club, Ed Sullivan Theatre, Shea Stadium, Budokan, Abbey Road and the Apple Corps Savile Row Rooftop).", "There is an elaborate system of gathering points to unlock rare audio and visual material from the Apple archives.", "And then there is the significant fact that the Beatles have never involved themselves in anything like this before.", "\"They've done it very respectfully, and so they should,\" McCartney tells me.", "\"Not just because you should respect the Beatles, but mainly because there are a lot of people out there who are going to notice if you don't", "I ask McCartney whether he's played it yet.", "\"I haven't, actually.", "I'm kind of, you know, looking forward to playing it.", "My excuse is, I play guitar.", "I was on the real record.",

trailer, where his support band MGMT are playing to a swelling audience.", "I wonder what John and George would have made of The Beatles: Rock Band.", "\"I think they would have been amused,\" McCartney says.", "\"I think they would have seen the point of it.", "For us, let's remember that the central thing is our music is getting played.", "That's the bottom line.", "I'm sure John and George would have thought, 'Hey, what a clever idea.'\"", "Two miles from McCartney's show, the people who made the game are talking it up with pride and amazement.", "Harmonix is on Massachusetts Avenue in Cambridge, just down the road from Harvard.", "The office sits between a pharmacy and a Get in Shape For Women studio, a series of rooms that resembles something closer to a student dorm than a company valued at hundreds of millions of dollars.", "(MTV bought Harmonix in 2006 for $175m, but has since paid almost $500m in additional bonuses.)", "In one of the rooms, decorated with a large framed poster of the Beatles, Alex Rigopulos, the co-founder, and Paul DeGooyer, senior vice president of MTV's games division, are discussing their hopes for what may be their most lucrative game to date.", "\"Everyone knows of the Beatles,\" Rigopulos says, \"but there's this whole generation for whom the music isn't personal, it isn't close to them.", "And for that younger audience we're delivering this incredible music in the most impactful way imaginable.", "In a way, it's a relaunch.\"", "Rigopulos and DeGooyer are aware of their coup: now that the biggest band of all have entered the arena, it has not only created a whole new series of marketing possibilities, but has legitimised their industry.", "It marks the precise point at which music videogames come of age.", "Harmonix began in 1995 as a concept at MIT's Media Lab.", "Its first clients were theme parks, and it entered the domestic market with a computer mouse that could also serve as a musical instrument on primitive games.", "Rock Band was only launched at the end of 2007, but already its retail sales in north America have exceeded $1bn, and gamers have downloaded more than 40 million songs for $1.99 each.", "As the company's co-founder Eran Egozy said recently, the delivery of rock music has just entered a new phase.", "There was vinyl, the cassette, the CD, digital downloads and now there is the downloadable digital interactive computer track.", "\"It's a launching point for how we see the future of music evolving.\"", "Harmonix has competition.", "Guitar Hero, made by Activision but originally developed by Harmonix, was launched in 2005 and has since sold more than 25 million copies, making it the market leader.", "But with the Beatles in its stable, Harmonix believes it has pulled off the ultimate coup.", "Songs by the Rolling Stones and the Who were already on Rock Band, but neither of those bands were controlled by the byzantine structure that is Apple Corps Ltd, the company that has handled all of the Beatles' creative activity since 1968.", "But Apple has always had a canny eye for the innovative and the lucrative, and a neat way of relaunching the Beatles for each new generation (the last time it was the exhaustive Anthology project in 1995).", "The main problem was not the concept but the technicalities.", "\"Apple said to us, 'We don't even want to talk about this any more unless you come up with a solution to separating out some of the earlier songs,'\" DeGooyer remembers.", "Rock Band requires each of the main instruments to be played in isolation, but on the Beatles early hits the drums and guitars would often be recorded on the same piece of tape.", "Dhani Harrison believed that the CIA would have some sort of technology to separate them, but in the end a solution was proffered by a company in Cambridge, England, called Cedar.", "There was also the problem of security.", "Apple would not permit the Beatles' master recordings to leave the studio vaults, much less travel to Boston, so once the tracks had been separated out they then had to be encrypted.", "In the summer of 2007, Harmonix received five songs to play with: I Want to Hold Your Hand, Helter Skelter, Taxman, Revolution and Here Comes the Sun.", "The plan was for Harmonix to show how the game might work, and to conceive a rough idea of how an animated Beatles might look on screen.", "The songs came with instructions.", "\"Apple gave us some guidelines to stick to,\" says Josh Randall, Harmonix's creative director.", "\"They said it needs to feel analogue, it needs to feel British, and even though it's a videogame, it shouldn't feel computery.", "But we should also try to make something new \u2013 not just go back and rehash the old stuff.\"", "In the end, the visual team produced a presentation based around Day Tripper, which was the first the Beatles saw of the game when they gathered at Abbey Road in summer 2008.", "\"From each of them there were just tons and tons of ideas,\" says Rigopulos.", "\"They said: 'Oh, you could do this, you could do that, you could do this", "\u2026'", "\"We did get very hands-on,\" McCartney says.", "\"We said: 'Show us everything \u2013 how does it work?'", "They said: 'If you attain a degree of efficiency you'll then get points, and your prize will be trivia facts about the Beatles.'", "I said: 'Oh great \u2013 show us them.'", "So they showed me one and I went, 'Oh, that's wrong.'", "It was the first one up.", "\"Some things you just do 'em: somebody's doing a book or something \u2013 we'll help them, but it's not our responsibility.", "But this is going to go out in our name, so we really have to be careful.\"", "According to Rigopulos, McCartney asked a lot of pointed questions.", "\"He wasn't aloof at all.", "He really did care about accuracy.", "There were some ideas we had about mixing and matching times and places that intentionally disregarded historical accuracy, and he put his stake in the ground.", "We said: 'Maybe the rooftop concert can have songs performed that actually you guys didn't perform on the rooftop.'", "And he said: 'No.", "There are some things we can play with, but some aspects of the design we should be true to.'\"", "In the game, the Beatles are animated in imaginative ways.", "Given the band's history with Yellow Submarine, this will not be unfamiliar territory for the older player, but it caused a lot of heartache at Harmonix.", "McCartney is a keen fan of modern animation, not least because he watches films with his grandchildren and the five-year-old daughter he shares with Heather Mills.", "He felt that the early work was not hugely impressive.", "\"We said: 'Look, the eyes don't work.'", "They said: 'No, eyes are very hard to do\u2026.'", "Then: 'Wait a minute, John's too wooden\u2026'", "I started to say, 'Look, Shrek's good.", "There's this great thing, Arthur and the Invisibles, the Luc Besson film.'", "So I started to give them things to aim at.\"", "Josh Randall says that all the Beatles and their wives were heavily involved.", "Talking on the phone from Henley-on-Thames, Olivia Harrison will tell me later that she thought there was a problem with the proportions in early drawings of George's face.", "\"I started to look at photos to see where they went wrong.", "I thought they could capture those eyes, and get that little bit of a crooked smile.\"", "She had played the game with Dhani in LA and was eager to have another go in private.", "\"It makes you appreciate music a little deeper.", "We don't have a band, but the music exists, and I don't see any harm in letting people have another way of experiencing it.\"", "It was Yoko Ono who apparently caused the most problems with the game's designers.", "Alex Rigopulos remembers one visit to their office during which Ono reminded them how windy the rooftop concert was, necessitating changes to the band's hair.", "There were other corrections: \"She would tell our animation guys how John would approach the mic, how heavy his eyes would be, giving them quite a hard time.", "But at the end she said to them, 'It's OK \u2013 I'm an artist too.'\"", "From Tokyo, by email, Yoko later responds to my questions.", "\"We, especially Olivia and I, were very caring about how the images of the Beatles were represented, as well as the music,\" she says.", "\"The Harmonix people were keen to involve us.", "I think they were really happy that we wanted to integrate ourselves so much into the project.\"", "She hasn't had time to play the game, but promises to \"explore it properly\" when she finishes promoting her new album.", "\"As a parent myself, I am very aware of the highly educational aspect of this game,\" she says.", "\"It will inspire and encourage the young generation to be intimately involved in music making.", "You can't ask for more.", "It will be another musical revolution created by the Beatles to make our planet a planet of music.\"", "The last key figure in the making of the game was Giles Martin, the son of George Martin.", "His remixing of the Beatles hits for the Love project (the Beatles collaboration with Cirque du Soleil in Las Vegas) had earned him the trust of the band, and he acted as the middleman between Apple and Harmonix, helping to select tracks for the game and create new precise endings for songs that had previously faded out.", "He too was initially suspicious of the idea.", "\"I was thinking, 'Am I making a Beatles Zippo lighter or a Beatles plastic tray?'", "I was snooty about it at first \u2013 'Oh God, we're just making a game.'", "There's part of me, being a musician, that wants to say, 'Why don't you go and play a proper guitar and not play a plastic one?'", "But what I do like about it is that it makes us listen to the music again and again, in the way that we used to when we bought albums.", "As opposed to having 3,000 songs on your iPod which you flick through with obsessive button pressing.", "These days we do hear a lot of music, but we don't actually listen to it very often.\"", "Giles Martin told me he was surprised, when he tried to play I Want to Hold Your Hand, at just how complex the bass line was.", "I knew what he meant.", "At the end of my first day at Harmonix, I entered the company's Star Chamber, where the games are tested.", "It is also the room where staff come to relax after a hard day's struggle with Ringo's cymbal crashes and George's eyelids.", "Shortly before I was joined by publicity and other staff for a \"concert\", I picked up a replica of McCartney's Hofner bass propped up on a leather sofa.", "This had been designed on a slightly reduced scale by Matthew Reineck, who also makes real guitars.", "The Hofner and the scaled-down models of Lennon's Rickenbacker, Harrison's Gretsch and Ringo's Ludwig drums were plastic, but they felt OK in the hand.", "Reineck explained that McCartney's bass had been made with great attention to detail (Hofner had supplied a special sample of the wood grain), but there were also variations.", "Unlike the original, the guitar was designed for a right-handed player, and it came with a \"whammy bar\" to enable nice sustain effects and ensure \"backwards compatibility\" with other Rock Band games.", "\"McCartney reviewed it halfway through the design process,\" Reineck said, \"and he didn't have an issue with it.\"", "The Hofner will come bundled in a big box with Ringo's drums and a microphone with stand, and will retail for \u00a3180.", "The Rickenbacker and the Gretsch will each cost \u00a390, while the game just on its own (requiring the use of older Rock Band instruments) will cost either \u00a340 or \u00a350 depending on the console.", "As Reineck was talking, various people arrived in the room and strapped on their wireless guitars.", "One of them inserted a disk in the machine, and apologised for a slight technical glitch: the Rickenbacker had run out of batteries, a dilemma the Fab Four had rarely encountered.", "I was surprised how much visual information is displayed on the screen all at once \u2013 it was like a musical satnav.", "It helps if you have a big TV; in fact, it is hard to see how the game could have existed before we all went mad for massive flat screens.", "I was asked what song I fancied and I plumped for Sgt Pepper's, but as a singer.", "One man took pity on me and set the difficulty level to Easy.", "(The game has five levels: Easy, Medium, Hard, Expert and No Fail, the latter a sort of training-wheels option to ensure the cloth-eared are not discouraged.)", "The music began, that familiar chugging.", "I began singing \u2013 that familiar awful sound.", "But I was keen, and it was less fraught than regular karaoke (you don't have to be drunk for a start), and I became a part of the act I'd known for all these years.", "I appeared to get the right words at the right time, and when the song ended (this took a while, as of course it segued into With a Little Help From My Friends) the screen showed I had scored 99 out of 100.", "Vaguely preposterous, but I had made my small contribution to unlocking a rare photograph of the Beatles in the studio with information about the first time they all sported moustaches, and once I had enough of these I would unlock some rare audio of the Beatles goading each other about messing up an intro.", "Glowing with success, I had a shot at Get Back.", "Not so good; only 97%; the rare photograph of George Harrison playing sitar on Magical Mystery Tour would have to wait.", "Overall, I wasn't so sure this was a good hobby for a grown man.", "The future of music?", "Others seemed to think so.", "I asked Olivia Harrison what George would have made of it.", "\"I hate to say, but I know I'm his biggest fan and biggest critic, and I'm happy with it.", "I think they did a great job, and if I didn't like it I would feel very uncomfortable.\"", "Yoko told me: \"People are always asking me what John would have thought of our new technology \u2013 email being our standard way of communication now etc.", "He would have loved it all.", "He was always for new ideas to give inspiration and encouragement to the world.", "He would have been excited about the Rock Band concept, and very happy with how the music and the visuals of the Beatles were represented.\"", "Given the likely success of Rock Band and the remastered catalogue, Marty Bandier, the chief executive of Sony/ATV publishing, said: \"The fourth quarter will belong to the Beatles.\"", "Backstage at Fenway Park, Paul McCartney is 90 minutes away from another night on stage.", "He is explaining how the Beatles got their look.", "\"When I was a kid, I went with my parents and my brother to Butlins Holiday Camp at Pwllheli.", "I had a vision\u2026 what do you call it?", "An epiphany.", "I was by the swimming pool, and we were such a funny family, a little bit Alan Bennett.", "From a door in one of the buildings, I see four guys walk out in a line.", "They were all dressed the same.", "They all had grey crew-neck sweaters, tartan twat hats (as we used to call them, like the Kangols everyone wears now), tartan shorts, and a rolled white towel under their arm.", "They just walked, and I thought, 'Holy shit!'", "They were in the talent show.", "Then I went to see them in the talent show, and they wore grey zoot suits, and they were from Gateshead, and they won.", "And I totally remember that.", "So when we came to be the Beatles, I said: 'You know what?' and I told everyone about this epiphany.", "And so we ended up in suits and we all wore the same.\"", "This was an unfamiliar yarn, and I was aware that McCartney had a reputation for reinterpreting history.", "Or perhaps his memory had become sharper as he aged.", "I said that I had always thought the look was Brian Epstein's idea.", "He said: \"I don't think it was.\"", "He explained that the suits may have been Epstein's thing, as it was the only way they could get the better-paid gigs, but McCartney thought the idea of all looking the same was probably his own.", "\"When we showed up at a gig, we would come in like this [regular street clothes], and then we'd get the boots and the suits, and suddenly we were the four-headed monster, and it was a very exciting feeling.", "We'd look at each other \u2013 wow!", "And we'd become more than the sum of the parts.", "We'd become the Beatles.\"", "The show that night was terrific.", "Thirty-five thousand people had an epiphany of their own.", "The concert also marked another Beatles milestone, for as McCartney sang Got to Get You Into My Life, from 1966, the vast screen behind him showed an animated film of the Beatles from 2009.", "\"The pictures you saw there are from this new Beatles Rock Band thing,\" he said.", "His fans clapped and whooped, because they had been presented with a new opportunity, the ability to recreate tonight's event at home.", "Batteries required, unsurpassed creative genius optional.", "## Yesterday's sound today", "\"The idea is to make the Beatles sound as good as they can,\" says Allan Rouse, talking at Abbey Road.", "He is the co-ordinator in charge of the digital remastering of the Beatles' back catalogue.", "This means that the Fabs' 12 albums, plus Magical Mystery Tour, which became part of the core catalogue when the first Beatles CDs were released in 1987, now boast a brighter, fuller sound.", "Some bad edits, dropouts and vocal pops are gone; but the odd cough, John muttering \"fucking hell\" during Hey Jude - this sort of thing remains.", "\"De-noising\" - removing analogue tape hiss - has only been applied to five of a total of 525 minutes worth of music.", "The release

absolutely can't tell you about it.", "Most of the time I have really boring dreams, like two nights ago I dreamed I made a really good pancake.", "That was it.", "I used to have lots of dreams about female pop stars and being really good friends with them.", "What does the term \"pop star\" mean to you?", "Someone who is immersed in popular culture and is relevant to it.", "So it's not really got anything to do with the genre of music they create.", "Would you say Kate Bush is a pop star?", "I would say she's a pop artist because the connotations of \"star\" are something trashy and celebrity.", "Are you a pop star?", "I don't think so.", "There's a bit of a split with me; some people would see me like that and some wouldn't.", "It depends when they followed me from, the first album or the second.", "The second album got me a lot more pop fans.", "I feel like a pop artist, but I do love pop stars.", "The media spotlight changes the definition between a pop star and a pop artist, I think.", "Do you think it's better to know too much or too little in the pop industry?", "Definitely better to know too much, because then you're under no illusions about what you're doing.", "But it must be nice also to just sort of float along not questioning certain things.", "Oh it would be lovely, don't get me wrong!", "I feel like the business side of my brain and the artistic side of my brain are very equal.", "I don't forget things and I'm not in a dream world, so I can't be any other way.", "With Electra Heart (1), it did hinder me because the aim with that was to be a straight-up pop star.", "So when I was promoting it I realised, OK, this is why I don't like being a pop star because people assume you don't know anything and you don't make your own music.", "I saw that change as soon as I dyed my hair blond and created music that had a different production style.", "It was fascinating but it made me think: \"I'm not going to do this again.\"", "How did you kill Electra Heart?", "Oh with sleeping pills, of course.", "But I had to kill her, it was the end.", "It was really fun while it lasted but those things are only meant to last a certain amount of time.", "Was she a reflection of you, a projection of who you wanted to be or just an excuse to wear a blond wig?", "A little bit of all of that.", "Didn't all your hair fall out because of the dye?", "It did!", "I bleached it and then when we were doing the cover shoot the guy was like, \"You've got a little bit of breakage at the back\" \u2013 and I was like, \"So are you telling me I'm going bald?\"", "I basically cut it into a boy's cut and then wore a wig.", "You popped a new song online on New Year's Day called Immortal that features the line \"everybody dies, everybody dies\".", "I like to imagine a lot of hungover people crying into their coffee listening to that.", "Was that the intention?", "Kind of, yeah.", "Because all the songs off this album come out on double-figure dates \u2013 so 12/12, 1/1 etc (2) \u2013 I thought about what song would be suitable and I went with that one.", "It puts things into perspective.", "I feel like there's hope in it too.", "Marina

good walk.", "If you're a pop star, you need a good walk and the ability to look good in a hat.", "I have never worn a hat.", "Oh dear.", "Your new album is called Froot.", "Why is it spelt wrong?", "Well, erm, no reason really (laughs).", "I just liked the way it looked.", "I didn't want it to be the traditional spelling because I thought it looked too serious.", "I like merging the natural with the synthetic.", "Are you quite a contrary person?", "Elaborate.", "Well I can just imagine you telling people the album's title and them going \"great\" and then you saying \"Oh but it's spelt F R O O T\".", "Oh yeah for sure.", "But also the great thing was that when we came to doing the logo it looked better because the \"O\"s could interlink.", "(3)", "Do you think the public see you as being quite knowing, or cynical even?", "Actually, yes.", "There was definitely that in me, but that cynicism has gone now.", "I feel like you hold on to that when you're not very happy and I wasn't happy.", "Why not?", "I don't know really.", "Even when the best things happen you don't really feel them until you're happy in yourself and so you figure stuff out.", "I was always looking at what wasn't happening as opposed to what was.", "When I first started it was natural for me to compare myself to other pop artists and I don't do that any more really.", "Members of Everything Everything and the Cure play on the album.", "Is this indie Marina?", "Will you be wearing Paisley shirts and second-hand knitwear soon?", "I mean, look at me, I'm wearing a cape!", "(4) It feels like a definitive record for me.", "It feels very me.", "There are some pop moments on there, but it's more of a very natural thing that came from the songwriting.", "When I first started recording it I was doing it the electronic way but all of the drums sounded shit, so I got in a real drummer.", "Basically, for a long time I've been trying to translate how I am on stage on to a record and before, because of working with co-writers and stuff, people just wanted to do it electronically.", "But this was all written by me and me alone.", "Is it true that each song has a different smell?", "How will this be achieved?", "Not in real life, no.", "For the vinyl they're separated up and there's a scratch and sniff thing on all the covers.", "I also saw you were kissing your fans via the medium of Twitter...", "Do you know how long that fucking took me?", "I was supposed to be on my Christmas break in Wales with my mum and I was like, \"Mum, help me scan these kisses\" and I fucked up her scanner.", "All the red lipstick was going all over the scanner!", "It is hard to do a good kiss, you know?", "I was intrigued by this lyric from the new song Can't Pin Me Down: \"Do you really want me to write a feminist anthem / I'm happy cooking dinner in the kitchen for my husband.\"", "Tell me a bit more about it.", "Well I got married last year!", "No, I didn't.", "It's about people trying to define who you are.", "It's about women, mainly.", "It's about what people expect you to be or who they think you are, when actually they have no fucking idea.", "People don't know who I am and so as an artist that's really frustrating because your whole aim is for people to understand what you're trying to express.", "Am I feminist though?", "Fuck, yes.", "But even with feminism it's not about being independent the whole time.", "There's nothing wrong with being a housewife.", "What are you doing tomorrow?", "I'm flying to Lanzarote to shoot a video.", "I need a really stark, barren

Thanks for coming to visit us at our office.", "Martin: Sure.", "Karthik: I am a CEO and a co-founder at SignalFx.", "Martin: When did you start this company and what made you start a company at all?", "Karthik:", "We started a company almost three years ago in January 2013.", "And my co-founder had been at Facebook for several years and he built monitoring systems at Facebook which was very state of the art different approach to solving monitoring compared to the monitoring solutions that had been on the market for twenty or thirty years.", "So he and I got together and spent some time looking at the broader market, the trends that were affecting the market to move towards cloud and software-as-a-service and felt that kind of problems that Phil had had at Facebook were the kinds of problems that everyone was beginning to see and without doubt an opportunity to start a company around it and so we decided to start SignalFx.", "Martin: Karthik, what is your background and how did it prepare you for starting a company?", "Karthik:", "I've been at startups pretty much my entire career, at least, when I started a company that's been startups.", "Right out of college I joined the

company of our own", "and so Phil and I decided to start SignalFx.", "Martin:", "Can you shine some light on the first 12 months of starting the business and the operations?", "How was it like?",

right away so that the two of us had..", "I think, because we've both been in the Valley for a long time and Phil had a lot of credibility around the technology because he built a similar kind of solution at Facebook, we were able to raise money right away before we hired our team.", "And so we had the luxury of taking a little bit of time to build the right product and do it thoughtfully.", "So from the time we started the company until we launched the company it was almost a full two years.", "So the first year, really a lot of it was, you know, laying the foundation, determining what the technology and architecture was going to look like; recruiting our initial group of engineers, building out the core technology and getting to a point where we could begin to go and recruit beta customers.", "But the first year, it was pretty much all product development.", "Beyond at the very beginning there is the fundraising process, and then once that was done it was pretty much just building.", "Martin: And when did you start talking to initial customers?", "Karthik: Well, we had beta customers \u2013 I think we started our first beta about a year and a half after we started the company, roughly about a year and a half after beginning.", "And I guess the question is how did we find these customers are or what the -?", "Martin: No. Just when did you start looking for them so one and a half year \u2013 ?", "Karthik:", "Yes.", "Well, we wanted our product to be far enough along that we could actually deliver value to customers but we didn't want to wait so long that we would go too far down a path that wasn't necessarily appropriate for the marketplace.", "That is a very fine line to walk.", "We felt we hit that point about a year and a half and where we had enough of the core technology that could actually solve problems for customers who had a big enough pain point in the areas that we were addressing.", "So we found some of these early customers who were willing to invest the time in a young company and be design partners to us and work with us on our beta.", "So, yes, it was about a year and a half after we founded it.", "Martin: What was the customer feedback like?", "Did they say wow this is really awesome or did they say you are on a good track but actually we would like to change this and this in the feature in another way that could solve our pain points more efficiently?", "Karthik:", "I think generally the overall feedback was very positive.", "Since the very first customer has signed up, they loved the product and loved this base they were in.", "There is always feedback and the feedback tends to be in the places that you didn't expect, right?", "So little things that you missed because you think about the product the way that you would use it and then you go to a different organization that has a different model and maybe a different process and or a different way of doing things and you have to sort of adjust it a little bit to help solve their problems in ways that makes sense with their organizations.", "So those were the kinds of things that you have to build small features to help our product integrate better into a customer's environment and address them, scenarios that maybe we haven't thought about.", "But the core concept, the core product, the core value proposition we've never wavered from.", "almost three years ago we thought the value would be, continues to be where most people are getting value today and what people are excited about today.", "It is on the perimeter, there are a number of things that, as you engage with customers you realize that we really need to add these things because it'll make it much easier for customers to use and deploy and get the value out of our products if we have these additional components.", "# BUSINESS MODEL OF SIGNALFX", "Martin: Karthik, can you, please, elaborate a little bit on the value propositions with what type of pitch are you currently targeting your customers?", "Karthik:", "SignalFX is a monitoring service for monitoring application.", "So we are now not focusing on monitoring traditional enterprise apps like a SAP, Oracle.", "There's plenty of companies that have been doing that for the past thirty or forty years.", "But what we do as your building the next generation of new applications.", "If you're moving to a cloud architecture or even if you're running your own data center but you're building a modern application that has micro services or open source or it's just distributed in nature it is a very different challenge monitoring these modern apps versus traditional apps.", "And the big differences are:", "Number one, these applications tend to be updated more frequently.", "Instead of doing one or two updates a year, you have updates that happen once a week or once every couple of weeks.", "Number two, they tend to be more complex applications where it's not just one app running \u2013 one monolithic app running on one machine.", "It tends to be service oriented so you can have multiple services, all communicating with one another.", "So if something goes wrong you have to understand and pinpoint did it go wrong in service A or service B and how does that affect your entire chain of services.", "And then the third thing that is fundamentally different is that apps tend to be distributed.", "So you have because the VMs and containers are so lightweight and so easy to spend up in cloud environment you could have applications that have dozens, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of components.", "And so in that world if you have to monitor large complex rapidly changing environment our belief is that the only way you can do that is through analytics.", "And you need to collect a bunch of information across all these different systems, perform real time analytics on it so that you can more practically identify trends and patterns as they emerge in your environment.", "And that's really our specialty.", "SignalFx is \u2013 we solve the monitoring problem but we do it through analytics.", "And so for our customers the benefit that they get is number one they get real-time complete visibility of everything that's happening to their applications.", "So keep in mind most applications these days are living breathing organisms and more and more they are critical to business.", "It's not like in the old days you have some back-office applications that is unavailable for a little while, it's a nuisance to people.", "But today these applications are your business.", "And if you have problems with that it materially impacts your business.", "You want to understand everything that's happening as it's happening.", "So we provide that visibility, we provide very high quality alerting.", "And so instead of getting alerts every time some random component is failing you get alerts when some meaningful trends are happening like significant subset of users in a particular region connecting with a particular device are experiencing larger than normally lengthencies.", "That is something that you care about.", "Those are the sorts of things that we help our customers really understand very, very, very quickly and very effectively.", "Martin: If I as a customer of yours, for example, have a very distributed kind of API system \u2013 how do I set up your SignalFx service?", "Karthik: There are lots of different ways of doing it.", "We have technologies that we provide out of the box.", "We have an open source agent that a lot of our customers use.", "It's one-line demand to get it installed and it collects all of the infrastructure metrics; it collects a bunch of application metrics if you're running open source components.", "If you're running MySQL, Postgresql, Elasticsearch, Kafka, Cassandra, these common open source, the platform will collect metrics from right out of the box and give you a comprehensive analytics and dashboards around it so you can understand what's happening to those.", "For your custom apps or for your APIs you would probably have some of those metrics put into log files and so we have log scrapers that can take those metrics, count them and send them into SignalFx or you can just send metrics directly into SignalFx from your applications.", "Every time an API is called, for example, you can send a metric into SignalFx that measures how long it took to process that request must including the number of dimensions around it, like which customer made that request, what region they are coming from.", "And then once all that data is in SignalFx you can start to slice and dice it in meaningful ways.", "As events are happening in your environment you can see it in SignalFx.", "Martin: Who do your target customers? And how do you basically acquire them?", "Karthik:", "Our target customers \u2013 it's basically anyone building an application who could use SignalFx.", "And there is a lot of application development happening in the technology community obviously.", "And so everyone here is a potential target for us.", "But more and more we see traditional enterprises also investing a lot in software development because\u2026", "As our investors, Marc Andreessen Horowitz likes to say \"Software is eating the world and every company is becoming a software company\" and so as they're investing in new software they also need a system like SignalFx to be able to observe as a software is out there in the wild, the operational characteristics of a software, performance metrics, to understand how the applications are scaling \u2013 all of these things that they need to understand they could use SignalFx to do it.", "The second part of your question \u2013 how do we acquire the customers?", "We are SaaS service, we do all the traditional marketing that you would expect business to do we.", "We have demand generation programs, we have a more concentrated community of buyers today.", "It tends to be operations teams.", "Some people also call them development teams.", "There are conferences where they tend to cluster and so we are present at those conferences.", "We also have a tremendous amount of word-of-moth with our existing customers.", "We have very happy customers and they tell their peers and then they come in and they find that since we've got a lot of inbound people finding us, hearing about us, coming to our website, signing up for a trial.", "We have a free trial.", "It's a very lightweight process.", "Someone can come and sign up, then immediately get value from the product and get a sense of the value they can get from us.", "So it's a very low friction, very easy way to get started.", "It's not a heavyweight sales engagement like classic enterprise software.", "Martin: Are you also using distributional partners like consulting companies?", "Karthik:", "As a young company the most important thing is to understand your own model very well first, I believe.", "So we've only been selling for six months.", "We launched in March.", "We've built our sales scheme.", "It's an exceptional sales scheme.", "We are really understanding all the nuances of our go-to-market motion ourselves but, absolutely, I think over time there's a lot of opportunities to work with distribution partners and services partners.", "But right now our focus is on understanding are own model very, very well before we start engaging with partners.", "Martin: It makes sense.", "Karthik, you said that you are basically is a SaaS model.", "What are the price drivers in your model?", "Karthik:", "The way our product is priced is based on the amount of data that customers send us.", "And we've done a lot of things to make it very fair and easy for customers to control what data they send into SignalFx.", "And the reason we do it this way, in the most traditional monitoring solutions prices are based on the number of servers that you are running.", "Unfortunately, that doesn't work well in the modern cloud environment because first of all these environments tend to be elastic.", "We talk to so many customers that could double or triple the number of VMs in their applications on a daily basis.", "They'll scale up and they'll scale down, pick hours will spike up and then they'll come down.", "So host count is a lot more fluid than it used to be.", "It's not quite as predictable as a metric of usage as it used to be.", "And secondly, not all hosts are graded equal anymore because you have some applications that you really, really care about and you want to collect a ton of data around those and other applications that are not critical and you don't collect as much data.", "And so it's not very fair to price the same for both of those.", "So what our customers do is, they can decide whatever data they want.", "Ultimately the primary cost of the solution like this is data storage, we just charge them on the number of data points that they send in, the data rate.", "The more data they send in, our storage class are higher.", "We have to retain that for our customers, and we tell them okay, there's a higher cost, the higher price.", "The less you send in, the less we have to store, the cheaper it is for the customer.", "It's a very fair model for customers; they can decide what they send, they can decide how they want to send it and they can download them down at a moment's notice.", "Martin:", "Karthik, you said that you are basically doing analytics based on the apps pinpointing where there might be an issue.", "Are you also doing predictive analytics for seeing maybe some patterns between your customers and seeing, there might be an issue for that kind of apps and there is some overlap in the usage of similar apps between some of those customers", "I see an issue rising at one customer therefore I may be predictive, tell another customer there might be an issue coming around \u2013 here is how you should solve it.", "Karthik: We don't do that because of number of reasons.", "Number one, our customers are very sensitive about data privacy, right?", "So we even anonymize, we don't do that \u2013 there is no pattern matching between different customers.", "It's completely isolated; there's no comparison of one customer to another.", "Secondly, I think one of the things that's fundamentally different is that every application is unique.", "And we have a massive fragmentation in a number of applications today compared to twenty years ago.", "Twenty years ago, everyone was running package software, and so you could look at Oracle trends across 10,000 customers.", "But today, Salesforce is very different from Work Day which is very different from Facebook, very different from Google and they are all unique applications that have their unique workload characteristics and unique hardware configurations.", "And so it doesn't make as much sense anymore to do those patterns across customers.", "There could be some benchmarking sorts of things down the road but at this point we're focusing more on giving the tools to the customers, the exploratory tools so they can richly understand their own data and look at the patterns in their own data and draw conclusions from that rather than trying to solve problems from looking at patterns across customers.", "Martin: Karthik, what have been the major obstacles over the last three years and how did you overcome them?", "Karthik:", "Well, I think as with any enterprise business one of biggest question marks is what your market model is going to look like.", "I think that when we started with the company we had a lot of conviction that there was a huge need for a product like what we built.", "And I think that's been validated over and over again, the more we talked to customers and the more we are around in the marketplace.", "I think the big question mark in the early days was what our go to market motion looks like; do we sell more to mid market accounts, enterprise accounts, where is the interest going to be?", "In the early days you have to spend a lot of time experimenting with different accounts.", "For us, it's turned out that there are all sorts of segments.", "We've got some great large customers that are traditional enterprises in large web skill organizations where they're essentially replacing their entire monitoring systems with SignalFx.", "We have midsize customers that move a little bit more quickly.", "And the deal sizes are not quite as big but you know they want to have more of that transaction motion.", "And so we've seen both models and then I think figuring out how to structure our team so that we can best equip both of those segments to be successful, that has been a kind of our biggest learning over the past year.", "And I wouldn't say it's a challenge but I would say that that was a big question mark when we went into our launch \u2013 what kind of go to market motion do we need to build for these different segments?", "Should we focuse more on one or another or gain the opportunity in both?", "And we've certainly seen the customers across the entire spectrum and so designing the go to market organization to support all of those customers has been probably the biggest area of investment for us as a company in the last 6 months.", "Martin: And what type of experience did you do in order to validate your go to market strategy?", "Karthik: With sales it was very easy.", "You see your customers signing up for your service.", "Are they willing to pay you?", "And so the experiments are \u2013 I think you experiment with messaging and you see which message has worked.", "In my experience, one of the things that we did very well is we hired some exceptional people in field who are very thoughtful, listen well, very intelligent.", "They have almost qualities like stem cells; they can adapt and become whatever model we need them to become and it was an incredible luxury to have people like that in the early days because we were able to really listen to customers, observe the patterns that were coming in and be able to figure out, ok, well, this is how we need to design our go to market motion versus assuming that it was going to be one way or another.", "I think we're able to adapt very quickly based on what was on the market.", "Martin: And how did you find those generalists sales people?", "Karthik:", "We interviewed a lot of people and I think we were just fortunate that we found some really high quality individuals who were willing to come and work with us.", "# ADVICE TO ENTREPRENEURS FROM KARTHIK RAU", "Martin: Karhtik, this is your first company that you've started for yourself.", "What type of advice would you share with other people thinking about starting a company?", "Karthik: Lots of things.", "You can spend a lot of time talking about this.", "I think what most of entrepreneurs would say is number one, you have to be very passionate about the idea because it is like a marriage \u2013 you are in it forever.", "You need to be excited about the team that you're starting working with; the co-founder chemistry has to be very, very strong; you have to really love what you're doing whether that's the product, the technology that you are building, or the team that you are building.", "So, I think that's absolutely critical.", "I think another thing that I would suggest to everyone is don't forget to enjoy the journey because I think a lot of people get so focused on \u2013 they are stressed about the outcome.", "That's natural.", "You are always trying to create the best organization that you can, but it's a beautiful journey.", "I think for me Mondays are my best days of the week.", "I get to come in and work with a fantastic group of people.", "Phil and I get to pick who we want to work with every day.", "We get influence it in a really meaningful way, the culture, the values that we care about.", "And that's a really beautiful thing.", "I think you have to stop and smell roses sometimes.", "That's one thing I think a lot of entrepreneurs forget to do.", "I think the third thing I would say is that every company is like a snowflake.", "It's all unique.", "Every company is absolutely unique.", "And people tend to pattern match and you will meet a lot of really smart people who have had great experiences and been very successful who will try to prescribe their approach to your company and everything changes.", "There is always some dimension that's changed.", "It could be the exact same technology and space from ten years ago versus today where markets are fundamentally different today versus 10 years ago.", "Your personalities are going to be different from other personalities, your founding team and culture everything is going to be unique so you really have to understand and introspect very well who are you, what do you do very well, what are your strengths, what are your weaknesses, what does your market truly look like, what's different about the market today versus five years ago, ten years ago and come up with a unique strategy because you are unique, your situations are unique.", "And you can get incredible input and advice from people but all of that input and advice comes with a bias and if you understand that bias you can then tease out the bias and just try to understand which of these things should be applicable to my world and which are not.", "But oftentimes it means you have to make a decision that is a lonely decision because it's based only on your company and what you have to do but it's very, very important that you make that decision on what's best for your company and not based on what's other people telling you.", "I think that's a very important thing to do when starting a company.", "And then I think the last thing I would suggest is from a personality point of view \u2013 I think you have to really, really enjoy the wins a lot more than you get down by the losses.", "Because every company has its ups and downs and as you go through the life cycle of a company early on by its very nature if you're in the market that's a new market that people haven't figured out as the big market yet you're going to have more people not understanding what you do very well understands what you do then someone else who is bigger and has more capacity to fulfill the demand with the market.", "So your timing has to be right from the beginning.", "You grow as the market is growing and that necessarily means that in the early days you're going to have fewer wins but you have to really relish the wins.", "That is everything I would suggest to people.", "Martin: You said that every Monday you are very happy to come to the office and work with great people and shaping the company and culture.", "What do you do to shape the culture of the company?", "Karthik: I think it starts first of all with who you hire.", "Culture, it's not something that you write up on a wall with a few bullet points.", "It has to be embedded in everything you do, every decision you make, every person you hire, what behaviors you embrace and reinforce and which behaviors you try to eliminate.", "I think it starts with the people you hire so you have to be very prescriptive about what are the cultural attributes that you care about.", "When we interview people we always have at least one person do a fit screen culture screen.", "I interview everyone that comes into the company and I'm always the final culture screen.", "And we're very prescriptive about what are the cultural attributes that we look for and that is very, very important.", "We've turned away a lot of people that are incredibly talented individuals but we felt that they didn't map to the kind of company and the culture that we wanted to build.", "So for us there are things like we really care about intellectual curiosity and someone, for example, like engineers that ask questions about the business and our business model are candidates that we really like.", "If there's a very talented engineer that shows no interest in the business, it really sways things to the other.", "Because we want everyone at our company to operate as business owners and we screen for that from the very beginning.", "And similarly on the sale side, when we are interviewing sales people we like them to ask and want to understand product strategy.", "And in that way we get everyone who when they are at the company, they are custodians of the business and they may be wearing a particular hat to be a salesperson or an engineer for their day-to-day jobs, but if they see something that they question there are not afraid to ask a question and then collectively as a team will make better decisions because we've got a variety of perspectives.", "So that's one independent thinking as another.", "Because as a start-up you have to take risks and you have to go against the grain sometimes and you have to make non obvious conclusions and so we really try especially in leadership positions to find people who are creative and will connect the dots in ways that other people don't.", "If we learn interesting things in an interview and we see different perspectives that we haven't seen before that's positive for us.", "There are all of sorts of these things that we try to do to screen for culture.", "So who you hire, the behaviors that you enforce, who you promote into management positions is one of the most important factors in building a culture, because I never would run a company we will see these are the behaviors that are rewarded.", "The behavior of managers is also very significant because that's again what people look at us \u2013 this is what the company values.", "You have to be very careful about who you promote, what behaviors they're displaying to the rest of the company, how you allocate different responsibilities to people, who you get what projects.", "Again it reflects to the rest of the company what qualities do we admire and respect.", "If we have a really big problem that we need to solve and it is very important for the company to solve it and we give these three people the role of solving that problem and it tells the company these are the three that were trusting to solve this big problem and they are obviously the skills that they have that the company really appreciates and respects.", "This isn't just about technical skills.", "It's technical skills, it's interpersonal skills, it's just all of these things become your culture.", "And I think it really starts with the people who you hire, who you promote, who you give certain roles too.", "And then myself and Phil, my co-founder, how we act every day is I think people look to us too, and the things that we value and how we treat people and treat partners and look at the opportunities.", "I think this is something that people look at as an example.", "There are so many different things that are involved in building a culture but I think the key is that you have to keep reinforcing certain tendency and do that across the entire company.", "Martin: Karthik, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.", "It was really the pleasure.", "Karthik: Thank you, Martin, very nice to meet you.", "Martin: Likewise.", "And the next time when you are starting a company you should really focus also in the beginning on the company's culture that you are hiring the right people not only based on the skills but also based on the attitude, because you want to minimize the asshole factor, for example, what do they work and be very curious about what they are working.", "Thank you so much.", "#### Share your thoughts and

Thanks for coming to visit us at our office.", "Martin: Sure.", "Karthik: I am a CEO and a co-founder at SignalFx.", "Martin: When did you start this company and what made you start a company at all?", "Karthik:", "We started a company almost three years ago in January 2013.", "And my co-founder had been at Facebook for several years and he built monitoring systems at Facebook which was very state of the art different approach to solving monitoring compared to the monitoring solutions that had been on the market for twenty or thirty years.", "So he and I got together and spent some time looking at the broader market, the trends that were affecting the market to move towards cloud and software-as-a-service and felt that kind of problems that Phil had had at Facebook were the kinds of problems that everyone was beginning to see and without doubt an opportunity to start a company around it and so we decided to start SignalFx.", "Martin: Karthik, what is your background and how did it prepare you for starting a company?", "Karthik:", "I've been at startups pretty much my entire career, at least, when I started a company that's been startups.", "Right out of college I joined the company called Loudcloud which was in the cloud computing space before cloud computing really existed as a market.", "In fact, we had the name cloud in our name Loudcloud back in 1990/2000.", "I was there for a few years.", "And then I went to VMware and I was there for a long time.", "I started when the company was still relatively small as a startup.", "I got to grow up with the company and see it grow through various stages of growth and by the time I left it was almost a ten thousand-person company.", "So that was a real highlight, being able to be a part of a company from the early days and see it through to become a fairly substantial and significant player in the industry.", "Then, I went to another startup called Delphix for a few years but I always wanted to start my own company.", "When Phil and I started to talk about building SignalFx everything just seemed to click and it seemed like the perfect opportunity to go to realize my dreams of being a founder and build a company of our own", "and so Phil and I decided to start SignalFx.", "Martin:", "Can you shine some light on the first 12 months of starting the business and the operations?", "How was it like?", "Karthik:", "It's actually pretty boring for the most part but our model is a little bit different.", "I mean, every model is unique here in Silicon Valley but Phil and I were able to raise money right away so that the two of us had..", "I think, because we've both been in the Valley for a long time and Phil had a lot of credibility around the technology because he built a similar kind of solution at Facebook, we were able to raise money right away before we hired our team.", "And so we had the luxury of taking a little bit of time to build the right product and do it thoughtfully.", "So from the time we started the company until we launched the company it was almost a full two years.", "So the first year, really a lot of it was, you know, laying the foundation, determining what the technology and architecture was going to look like; recruiting our initial group of engineers, building out the core technology and getting to a point where we could begin to go and recruit beta customers.", "But the first year, it was pretty much all product development.", "Beyond at the very beginning there is the fundraising process, and then once that was done it was pretty much just building.", "Martin: And when did you start talking to initial customers?", "Karthik: Well, we had beta customers \u2013 I think we started our first beta about a year and a half after we started the company, roughly about a year and a half after beginning.", "And I guess the question is how did we find these customers are or what the -?", "Martin: No. Just when did you start looking for them so one and a half year \u2013 ?", "Karthik:", "Yes.", "Well, we wanted our product to be far enough along that we could actually deliver value to customers but we didn't want to wait so long that we would go too far down a path that wasn't necessarily appropriate for the marketplace.", "That is a very fine line to walk.", "We felt we hit that point about a year and a half and where we had enough of the core technology that could actually solve problems for customers who had a big enough pain point in the areas that we were addressing.", "So we found some of these early customers who were willing to invest the time in a young company and be design partners to us and work with us on our beta.", "So, yes, it was about a year and a half after we founded it.", "Martin: What was the customer feedback like?", "Did they say wow this is really awesome or did they say you are on a good track but actually we would like to change this and this in the feature in another way that could solve our pain points more efficiently?", "Karthik:", "I think generally the overall feedback was very positive.", "Since the very first customer has signed up, they loved the product and loved this base they were in.", "There is always feedback and the feedback tends to be in the places that you didn't expect, right?", "So little things that you missed because you think about the product the way that you would use it and then you go to a different organization that has a different model and maybe a different process and or a different way of doing things and you have to sort of adjust it a little bit to help solve their problems in ways that makes sense with their organizations.", "So those were the kinds of things that you have to build small features to help our product integrate better into a customer's environment and address them, scenarios that maybe we haven't thought about.", "But the core concept, the core product, the core value proposition we've never wavered from.", "almost three years ago we thought the value would be, continues to be where most people are getting value today and what people are excited about today.", "It is on the perimeter, there are a number of things that, as you engage with customers you realize that we really need to add these things because it'll make it much easier for customers to use and deploy and get the value out of our products if we have these additional components.", "# BUSINESS MODEL OF SIGNALFX", "Martin: Karthik, can you, please, elaborate a little bit on the value propositions with what type of pitch are you currently targeting your customers?", "Karthik:", "SignalFX is a monitoring service for monitoring application.", "So we are now not focusing on monitoring traditional enterprise apps like a SAP, Oracle.", "There's plenty of companies that have been doing that for the past thirty or forty years.", "But what we do as your building the next generation of new applications.", "If you're moving to a cloud architecture or even if you're running your own data center but you're building a modern application that has micro services or open source or it's just distributed in nature it is a very different challenge monitoring these modern apps versus traditional apps.", "And the big differences are:", "Number one, these applications tend to be updated more frequently.", "Instead of doing one or two updates a year, you have updates that happen once a week or once every couple of weeks.", "Number two, they tend to be more complex applications where it's not just one app running \u2013 one monolithic app running on one machine.", "It tends to be service oriented so you can have multiple services, all communicating with one another.", "So if something goes wrong you have to understand and pinpoint did it go wrong in service A or service B and how does that affect your entire chain of services.", "And then the third thing that is fundamentally different is that apps tend to be distributed.", "So you have because the VMs and containers are so lightweight and so easy to spend up in cloud environment you could have applications that have dozens, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of components.", "And so in that world if you have to monitor large complex rapidly changing environment our belief is that the only way you can do that is through analytics.", "And you need to collect a bunch of information across all these different systems, perform real time analytics on it so that you can more practically identify trends and patterns as they emerge in your environment.", "And that's really our specialty.", "SignalFx is \u2013 we solve the monitoring problem but we do it through analytics.", "And so for our customers the benefit that they get is number one they get real-time complete visibility of everything that's happening to their applications.", "So keep in mind most applications these days are living breathing organisms and more and more they are critical to business.", "It's not like in the old days you have some back-office applications that is unavailable for a little while, it's a nuisance to people.", "But today these applications are your business.", "And if you have problems with that it materially impacts your business.", "You want to understand everything that's happening as it's happening.", "So we provide that visibility, we provide very high quality alerting.", "And so instead of getting alerts every time some random component is failing you get alerts when some meaningful trends are happening like significant subset of users in a particular region connecting with a particular device are experiencing larger than normally lengthencies.", "That is something that you care about.", "Those are the sorts of things that we help our customers really understand very, very, very quickly and very effectively.", "Martin: If I as a customer of yours, for example, have a very distributed kind of API system \u2013 how do I set up your SignalFx service?", "Karthik: There are lots of different ways of doing it.", "We have technologies that we provide out of the box.", "We have an open source agent that a lot of our customers use.", "It's one-line demand to get it installed and it collects all of the infrastructure metrics; it collects a bunch of application metrics if you're running open source components.", "If you're running MySQL, Postgresql, Elasticsearch, Kafka, Cassandra, these common open source, the platform will collect metrics from right out of the box and give you a comprehensive analytics and dashboards around it so you can understand what's happening to those.", "For your custom apps or for your APIs you would probably have some of those metrics put into log files and so we have log scrapers that can take those metrics, count them and send them into SignalFx or you can just send metrics directly into SignalFx from your applications.", "Every time an API is called, for example, you can send a metric into SignalFx that measures how long it took to process that request must including the number of dimensions around it, like which customer made that request, what region they are coming from.", "And then once all that data is in SignalFx you can start to slice and dice it in meaningful ways.", "As events are happening in your environment you can see it in SignalFx.", "Martin: Who do your target customers? And how do you basically acquire them?", "Karthik:", "Our target customers \u2013 it's basically anyone building an application who could use SignalFx.", "And there is a lot of application development happening in the technology community obviously.", "And so everyone here is a potential target for us.", "But more and more we see traditional enterprises also investing a lot in software development because\u2026", "As our investors, Marc Andreessen Horowitz likes to say \"Software is eating the world and every company is becoming a software company\" and so as they're investing in new software they also need a system like SignalFx to be able to observe as a software is out there in the wild, the operational characteristics of a software, performance metrics, to understand how the applications are scaling \u2013 all of these things that they need to understand they could use SignalFx to do it.", "The second part of your question \u2013 how do we acquire the customers?", "We are SaaS service, we do all the traditional marketing that you would expect business to do we.", "We have demand generation programs, we have a more concentrated community of buyers today.", "It tends to be operations teams.", "Some people also call them development teams.", "There are conferences where they tend to cluster and so we are present at those conferences.", "We also have a tremendous amount of word-of-moth with our existing customers.", "We have very happy customers and they tell their peers and then they come in and they find that since we've got a lot of inbound people finding us, hearing about us, coming to our website, signing up for a trial.", "We have a free trial.", "It's a very lightweight process.", "Someone can come and sign up, then immediately get value from the product and get a sense of the value they can get from us.", "So it's a very low friction, very easy way to get started.", "It's not a heavyweight sales engagement like classic enterprise software.", "Martin: Are you also using distributional partners like consulting companies?", "Karthik:", "As a young company the most important thing is to understand your own model very well first, I believe.", "So we've only been selling for six months.", "We launched in March.", "We've built our sales scheme.", "It's an exceptional sales scheme.", "We are really understanding all the nuances of our go-to-market motion ourselves but, absolutely, I think over time there's a lot of opportunities to work with distribution partners and services partners.", "But right now our focus is on understanding are own model very, very well before we start engaging with partners.", "Martin: It makes sense.", "Karthik, you said that you are basically is a SaaS model.", "What are the price drivers in your model?", "Karthik:", "The way our product is priced is based on the amount of data that customers send us.", "And we've done a lot of things to make it very fair and easy for customers to control what data they send into SignalFx.", "And the reason we do it this way, in the most traditional monitoring solutions prices are based on the number of servers that you are running.", "Unfortunately, that doesn't work well in the modern cloud environment because first of all these environments tend to be elastic.", "We talk to so many customers that could double or triple the number of VMs in their applications on a daily basis.", "They'll scale up and they'll scale down, pick hours will spike up and then they'll come down.", "So host count is a lot more fluid than it used to be.", "It's not quite as predictable as a metric of usage as it used to be.", "And secondly, not all hosts are graded equal anymore because you have some applications that you really, really care about and you want to collect a ton of data around those and other applications that are not critical and you don't collect as much data.", "And so it's not very fair to price the same for both of those.", "So what our customers do is, they can decide whatever data they want.", "Ultimately the primary cost of the solution like this is data storage, we just charge them on the number of data points that they send in, the data rate.", "The more data they send in, our storage class are higher.", "We have to retain that for our customers, and we tell them okay, there's a higher cost, the higher price.", "The less you send in, the less we have to store, the cheaper it is for the customer.", "It's a very fair model for customers; they can decide what they send, they can decide how they want to send it and they can download them down at a moment's notice.", "Martin:", "Karthik, you said that you are basically doing analytics based on the apps pinpointing where there might be an issue.", "Are you also doing predictive analytics for seeing maybe some patterns between your customers and seeing, there might be an issue for that kind of apps and there is some overlap in the usage of similar apps between some of those customers", "I see an issue rising at one customer therefore I may be predictive, tell another customer there might be an issue coming around \u2013 here is how you should solve it.", "Karthik: We don't do that because of number of reasons.", "Number one, our customers are very sensitive about data privacy, right?", "So we even anonymize, we don't do that \u2013 there is no pattern matching between different customers.", "It's completely isolated; there's no comparison of one customer to another.", "Secondly, I think one of the things that's fundamentally different is that every application is unique.", "And we have a massive fragmentation in a number of applications today compared to twenty years ago.", "Twenty years ago, everyone was running package software, and so you could look at Oracle trends across 10,000 customers.", "But today, Salesforce is very different from Work Day which is very different from Facebook, very different from Google and they are all unique applications that have their unique workload characteristics and unique hardware configurations.", "And so it doesn't make as much sense anymore to do those patterns across customers.", "There could be some benchmarking sorts of things down the road but at this point we're focusing more on giving the tools to the customers, the exploratory tools so they can richly understand their own data and look at the patterns in their own data and draw conclusions from that rather than trying to solve problems from looking at patterns across customers.", "Martin: Karthik, what have been the major obstacles over the last three years and how did you overcome them?", "Karthik:", "Well, I think as with any enterprise business one of biggest question marks is what your market model is going to look like.", "I think that when we started with the company we had a lot of conviction that there was a huge need for a product like what we built.", "And I think that's been validated over and over again, the more we talked to customers and the more we are around in the marketplace.", "I think the big question mark in the early days was what our go to market motion looks like; do we sell more to mid market accounts, enterprise accounts, where is the interest going to be?", "In the early days you have to spend a lot of time experimenting with different accounts.", "For us, it's turned out that there are all sorts of segments.", "We've got some great large customers that are traditional enterprises in large web skill organizations where they're essentially replacing their entire monitoring systems with SignalFx.", "We have midsize customers that move a little bit more quickly.", "And the deal sizes are not quite as big but you know they want to have more of that transaction motion.", "And so we've seen both models and then I think figuring out how to structure our team so that we can best equip both of those segments to be successful, that has been a kind of our biggest learning over the past year.", "And I wouldn't say it's a challenge but I would say that that was a big question mark when we went into our launch \u2013 what kind of go to market motion do we need to build for these different segments?", "Should we focuse more on one or another or gain the opportunity in both?", "And we've certainly seen the customers across the entire spectrum and so designing the go to market organization to support all of those customers has been probably the biggest area of investment for us as a company in the last 6 months.", "Martin: And what type of experience did you do in order to validate your go to market strategy?", "Karthik: With sales it was very easy.", "You see your customers signing up for your service.", "Are they willing to pay you?", "And so the experiments are \u2013 I think you experiment with messaging and you see which message has worked.", "In my experience, one of the things that we did very well is we hired some exceptional people in field who are very thoughtful, listen well, very intelligent.", "They have almost qualities like stem cells; they can adapt and become whatever model we need them to become and it was an incredible luxury to have people like that in the early days because we were able to really listen to customers, observe the patterns that were coming in and be able to figure out, ok, well, this is how we need to design our go to market motion versus assuming that it was going to be one way or another.", "I think we're able to adapt very quickly based on what was on the market.", "Martin: And how did you find those generalists sales people?", "Karthik:", "We interviewed a lot of people and I think we were just fortunate that we found some really high quality individuals who were willing to come and work with us.", "# ADVICE TO ENTREPRENEURS FROM KARTHIK RAU", "Martin: Karhtik, this is your first company that you've started for yourself.", "What type of advice would you share with other people thinking about starting a company?", "Karthik: Lots of things.", "You can spend a lot of time talking about this.", "I think what most of entrepreneurs would say is number one, you have to be very passionate about the idea because it is like a marriage \u2013 you are in it forever.", "You need to be excited about the team that you're starting working with; the co-founder chemistry has to be very, very strong; you have to really love what you're doing whether that's the product, the technology that you are building, or the team that you are building.", "So, I think that's absolutely critical.", "I think another thing that I would suggest to everyone is don't forget to enjoy the journey because I think a lot of people get so focused on \u2013 they are stressed about the outcome.", "That's natural.", "You are always trying to create the best organization that you can, but it's a beautiful journey.", "I think for me Mondays are my best days of the week.", "I get to come in and work with a fantastic group of people.", "Phil and I get to pick who we want to work with every day.", "We get influence it in a really meaningful way, the culture, the values that we care about.", "And that's a really beautiful thing.", "I think you have to stop and smell roses sometimes.", "That's one thing I think a lot of entrepreneurs forget to do.", "I think the third thing I would say is that every company is like a snowflake.", "It's all unique.", "Every company is absolutely unique.", "And people tend to pattern match and you will meet a lot of really smart people who have had great experiences and been very successful who will try to prescribe their approach to your company and everything changes.", "There is always some dimension that's changed.", "It could be the exact same technology and space from ten years ago versus today where markets are fundamentally different today versus 10 years ago.", "Your personalities are going to be different from other personalities, your founding team and culture everything is going to be unique so you really have to understand and introspect very well who are you, what do you do very well, what are your strengths, what are your weaknesses, what does your market truly look like, what's different about the market today versus five years ago, ten years ago and come up with a unique strategy because you are unique, your situations are unique.", "And you can get incredible input and advice from people but all of that input and advice comes with a bias and if you understand that bias you can then tease out the bias and just try to understand which of these things should be applicable to my world and which are not.", "But oftentimes it means you have to make a decision that is a lonely decision because it's based only on your company and what you have to do but it's very, very important that you make that decision on what's best for your company and not based on what's other people telling you.", "I think that's a very important thing to do when starting a company.", "And then I think the last thing I would suggest is from a personality point of view \u2013 I think you have to really, really enjoy the wins a lot more than you get down by the losses.", "Because every company has its ups and downs and as you go through the life cycle of a company early on by its very nature if you're in the market that's a new market that people haven't figured out as the big market yet you're going to have more people not understanding what you do very well understands what you do then someone else who is bigger and has more capacity to fulfill the demand with the market.", "So your timing has to be right from the beginning.", "You grow as the market is growing and that necessarily means that in the early days you're going to have fewer wins but you have to really relish the wins.", "That is everything I would suggest to people.", "Martin: You said that every Monday you are very happy to come to the office and work with great people and shaping the company and culture.", "What do you do to shape the culture of the company?", "Karthik: I think it starts first of all with who you hire.", "Culture, it's not something that you write up on a wall with a few bullet points.", "It has to be embedded in everything you do, every decision you make, every person you hire, what behaviors you embrace and reinforce and which behaviors you try to eliminate.", "I think it starts with the people you hire so you have to be very prescriptive about what are the cultural attributes that you care about.", "When we interview people we always have at least one person do a fit screen culture screen.", "I interview everyone that comes into the company and I'm always the final culture screen.", "And we're very prescriptive about what are the cultural attributes that we look for and that is very, very important.", "We've turned away a lot of people that are incredibly talented individuals but we felt that they didn't map to the kind of company and the culture that we wanted to build.", "So for us there are things like we really care about intellectual curiosity and someone, for example, like engineers that ask questions about the business and our business model are candidates that we really like.", "If there's a very talented engineer that shows no interest in the business, it really sways things to the other.", "Because we want everyone at our company to operate as business owners and we screen for that from the very beginning.", "And similarly on the sale side, when we are interviewing sales people we like them to ask and want to understand product strategy.", "And in that way we get everyone who when they are at the company, they are custodians of the business and they may be wearing a particular hat to be a salesperson or an engineer for their day-to-day jobs, but if they see something that they question there are not afraid to ask a question and then collectively as a team will make better decisions because we've got a variety of perspectives.", "So that's one independent thinking as another.", "Because as a start-up you have to take risks and you have to go against the grain sometimes and you have to make non obvious conclusions and so we really try especially in leadership positions to find people who are creative and will connect the dots in ways that other people don't.", "If we learn interesting things in an interview and we see different perspectives that we haven't seen before that's positive for us.", "There are all of sorts of these things that we try to do to screen for culture.", "So who you hire, the behaviors that you enforce, who you promote into management positions is one of the most important factors in building a culture, because I never would run a company we will see these are the behaviors that are rewarded.", "The behavior of managers is also very significant because that's again what people look at us \u2013 this is what the company values.", "You have to be very careful about who you promote, what behaviors they're displaying to the rest of the company, how you allocate different responsibilities to people, who you get what projects.", "Again it reflects to the rest of the company what qualities do we admire and respect.", "If we have a really big problem that we need to solve and it is very important for the company to solve it and we give these three people the role of solving that problem and it tells the company these are the three that were trusting to solve this big problem and they are obviously the skills that they have that the company really appreciates and respects.", "This isn't just about technical skills.", "It's technical skills, it's interpersonal skills, it's just all of these things become your culture.", "And I think it really starts with the people who you hire, who you promote, who you give certain roles too.", "And then myself and Phil, my co-founder, how we act every day is I think people look to us too, and the things that we value and how we treat people and treat partners and look at the opportunities.", "I think this is something that people look at as an example.", "There are so many different things that are involved in building a culture but I think the key is that you have to keep reinforcing certain tendency and do that across the entire company.", "Martin: Karthik, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.", "It was really the pleasure.", "Karthik: Thank you, Martin, very nice to meet you.", "Martin: Likewise.", "And the next time when you are starting a company you should really focus also in the beginning on the company's culture that you are hiring the right people not only based on the skills but also based on the attitude, because you want to minimize the asshole factor, for example, what do they work and be very curious about what they are working.", "Thank you so much.", "#### Share your thoughts and

Thanks for coming to visit us at our office.", "Martin: Sure.", "Karthik: I am a CEO and a co-founder at SignalFx.", "Martin: When did you start this company and what made you start a company at all?", "Karthik:", "We started a company almost three years ago in January 2013.", "And my co-founder had been at Facebook for several years and he built monitoring systems at Facebook which was very state of the art different approach to solving monitoring compared to the monitoring solutions that had been on the market for twenty or thirty years.", "So he and I got together and spent some time looking at the broader market, the trends that were affecting the market to move towards cloud and software-as-a-service and felt that kind of problems that Phil had had at Facebook were the kinds of problems that everyone was beginning to see and without doubt an opportunity to start a company around it and so we decided to start SignalFx.", "Martin: Karthik, what is your background and how did it prepare you for starting a company?", "Karthik:", "I've been at startups pretty much my entire career, at least, when I started a company that's been startups.", "Right out of college I joined the company called Loudcloud which was in the cloud computing space before cloud computing really existed as a market.", "In fact, we had the name cloud in our name Loudcloud back in 1990/2000.", "I was there for a few years.", "And then I went to VMware and I was there for a long time.", "I started when the company was still relatively small as a startup.", "I got to grow up with the company and see it grow through various stages of growth and by the time I left it was almost a ten thousand-person company.", "So that was a real highlight, being able to be a part of a company from the early days and see it through to become a fairly substantial and significant player in the industry.", "Then, I went to another startup called Delphix for a few years but I always wanted to start my own company.", "When Phil and I started to talk about building SignalFx everything just seemed to click and it seemed like the perfect opportunity to go to realize my dreams of being a founder and build a company of our own", "and so Phil and I decided to start SignalFx.", "Martin:", "Can you shine some light on the first 12 months of starting the business and the operations?", "How was it like?", "Karthik:", "It's actually pretty boring for the most part but our model is a little bit different.", "I mean, every model is unique here in Silicon Valley but Phil and I were able to raise money right away so that the two of us had..", "I think, because we've both been in the Valley for a long time and Phil had a lot of credibility around the technology because he built a similar kind of solution at Facebook, we were able to raise money right away before we hired our team.", "And so we had the luxury of taking a little bit of time to build the right product and do it thoughtfully.", "So from the time we started the company until we launched the company it was almost a full two years.", "So the first year, really a lot of it was, you know, laying the foundation, determining what the technology and architecture was going to look like; recruiting our initial group of engineers, building out the core technology and getting to a point where we could begin to go and recruit beta customers.", "But the first year, it was pretty much all product development.", "Beyond at the very beginning there is the fundraising process, and then once that was done it was pretty much just building.", "Martin: And when did you start talking to initial customers?", "Karthik: Well, we had beta customers \u2013 I think we started our first beta about a year and a half after we started the company, roughly about a year and a half after beginning.", "And I guess the question is how did we find these customers are or what the -?", "Martin: No. Just when did you start looking for them so one and a half year \u2013 ?", "Karthik:", "Yes.", "Well, we wanted our product to be far enough along that we could actually deliver value to customers but we didn't want to wait so long that we would go too far down a path that wasn't necessarily appropriate for the marketplace.", "That is a very fine line to walk.", "We felt we hit that point about a year and a half and where we had enough of the core technology that could actually solve problems for customers who had a big enough pain point in the areas that we were addressing.", "So we found some of these early customers who were

customer feedback like?", "Did they say wow this is really awesome or did they say you are on a good track but actually we would like to change this and this in the feature in another way that could

base they were in.", "There is always feedback and the feedback tends to be in the places that you didn't expect, right?", "So little things that you missed because you think about the product the way that you would use it and then you go to a different organization that has a different model and maybe a different process and or a different way of doing things and you have to sort of adjust it a little bit to help solve their problems in ways that makes sense with their organizations.", "So those were the kinds of things that you have to build small features to help our product integrate better into a customer's environment and address them, scenarios that maybe we haven't thought about.", "But the core concept, the core product, the core value proposition we've never wavered from.", "almost three years ago we thought the value would be, continues to be where most people are getting value today and what people are excited about today.", "It is on the perimeter, there are a number of things that, as you engage with customers you realize that we really need to add these things because it'll make it much easier for customers to use and deploy and get the value out of our products if we have these additional components.", "# BUSINESS MODEL OF SIGNALFX", "Martin: Karthik, can you, please, elaborate a little bit on the value propositions with what type of pitch are you currently targeting your customers?", "Karthik:", "SignalFX is a monitoring service for monitoring application.", "So we are now not focusing on monitoring traditional enterprise apps like a SAP, Oracle.", "There's plenty of companies that have been doing that for the past thirty or forty years.", "But what we do as your building the next generation of new applications.", "If you're moving to a cloud architecture or even if you're running your own data center but you're building a modern application that has micro services or open source or it's just distributed in nature it is a very different challenge monitoring these modern apps versus traditional apps.", "And the big differences are:", "Number one, these applications tend to be updated more frequently.", "Instead of doing one or two updates a year, you have updates that happen once a week or once every couple of weeks.", "Number two, they tend to be more complex applications where it's not just one app running \u2013 one monolithic app running on one machine.", "It tends to be service oriented so you can have multiple services, all communicating with one another.", "So if something goes wrong you have to understand and pinpoint did it go wrong in service A or service B and how does that affect your entire chain of services.", "And then the third thing that is fundamentally different is that apps tend to be distributed.", "So you have because the VMs and containers are so lightweight and so easy to spend up in cloud environment you could have applications that have dozens, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of components.", "And so in that world if you have to monitor large complex rapidly changing environment our belief is that the only way you can do that is through analytics.", "And you need to collect a bunch of information across all these different systems, perform real time analytics on it so that you can more practically identify trends and patterns as they emerge in your environment.", "And that's really our specialty.", "SignalFx is \u2013 we solve the monitoring problem but we do it through analytics.", "And so for our customers the benefit that they get is number one they get real-time complete visibility of everything that's happening to their applications.", "So keep in mind most applications these days are living breathing organisms and more and more they are critical to business.", "It's not like in the old days you have some back-office applications that is unavailable for a little while, it's a nuisance to people.", "But today these applications are your business.", "And if you have problems with that it materially impacts your business.", "You want to understand everything that's happening as it's happening.", "So we provide that visibility, we provide very high quality alerting.", "And so instead of getting alerts every time some random component is failing you get alerts when some meaningful trends are happening like significant subset of users in a particular region connecting with a particular device are experiencing larger than normally lengthencies.", "That is something that you care about.", "Those are the sorts of things that we help our customers really understand very, very, very quickly and very effectively.", "Martin: If I as a customer of yours, for example, have a very distributed kind of API system \u2013 how do I set up your SignalFx service?", "Karthik: There are lots of different ways of doing it.", "We have technologies that we provide out of the box.", "We have an open source agent that a lot of our customers use.", "It's one-line demand to get it installed and it collects all of the infrastructure metrics; it collects a bunch of application metrics if you're running open source components.", "If you're running MySQL, Postgresql, Elasticsearch, Kafka, Cassandra, these common open source, the platform will collect metrics from right out of the box and give you a comprehensive analytics and dashboards around it so you can understand what's happening to those.", "For your custom apps or for your APIs you would probably have some of those metrics put into log files and so we have log scrapers that can take those metrics, count them and send them into SignalFx or you can just send metrics directly into SignalFx from your applications.", "Every time an API is called, for example, you can send a metric into SignalFx that measures how long it took to process that request must including the number of dimensions around it, like which customer made that request, what region they are coming from.", "And then once all that data is in SignalFx you can start to slice and dice it in meaningful ways.", "As events are happening in your environment you can see it in SignalFx.", "Martin: Who do your target customers? And how do you basically acquire them?", "Karthik:", "Our target customers \u2013 it's basically anyone building an application who could use SignalFx.", "And there is a lot of application development happening in the technology community obviously.", "And so everyone here is a potential target for us.", "But more and more we see traditional enterprises also investing a lot in software development because\u2026", "As our investors, Marc Andreessen Horowitz likes to say \"Software is eating the world and every company is becoming a software company\" and so as they're investing in new software they also need a system like SignalFx to be able to observe as a software is out there in the wild, the operational characteristics of a software, performance metrics, to understand how the applications are scaling \u2013 all of these things that they need to understand they could use SignalFx to do it.", "The second part of your question \u2013 how do we acquire the customers?", "We are SaaS service, we do all the traditional marketing that you would expect business to do we.", "We have demand generation programs, we have a more concentrated community of buyers today.", "It tends to be operations teams.", "Some people also call them development teams.", "There are conferences where they tend to cluster and so we are present at those conferences.", "We also have a tremendous amount of word-of-moth with our existing customers.", "We have very happy customers and they tell their peers and then they come in and they find that since we've got a lot of inbound people finding us, hearing about us, coming to our website, signing up for a trial.", "We have a free trial.", "It's a very lightweight process.", "Someone can come and sign up, then immediately get value from the product and get a sense of the value they can get from us.", "So it's a very low friction, very easy way to get started.", "It's not a heavyweight sales engagement like classic enterprise software.", "Martin: Are you also using distributional partners like consulting companies?", "Karthik:", "As a young company the most important thing is to understand your own model very well first, I believe.", "So we've only been selling for six months.", "We launched in March.", "We've built our sales scheme.", "It's an exceptional sales scheme.", "We are really understanding all the nuances of our go-to-market motion ourselves but, absolutely, I think over time there's a lot of opportunities to work with distribution partners and services partners.", "But right now our focus is on understanding are own model very, very well before we start engaging with partners.", "Martin: It makes sense.", "Karthik, you said that you are basically is a SaaS model.", "What are the price drivers in your model?", "Karthik:", "The way our product is priced is based on the amount of data that customers send us.", "And we've done a lot of things to make it very fair and easy for customers to control what data they send into SignalFx.", "And the reason we do it this way, in the most traditional monitoring solutions prices are based on the number of servers that you are running.", "Unfortunately, that doesn't work well in the modern cloud environment because first of all these environments tend to be elastic.", "We talk to so many customers that could double or triple the number of VMs in their applications on a daily basis.", "They'll scale up and they'll scale down, pick hours will spike up and then they'll come down.", "So host count is a lot more fluid than it used to be.", "It's not quite as predictable as a metric of usage as it used to be.", "And secondly, not all hosts are graded equal anymore because you have some applications that you really, really care about and you want to collect a ton of data around those and other applications that are not critical and you don't collect as much data.", "And so it's not very fair to price the same for both of those.", "So what our customers do is, they can decide whatever data they want.", "Ultimately the primary cost of the solution like this is data storage, we just charge them on the number of data points that they send in, the data rate.", "The more data they send in, our storage class are higher.", "We have to retain that for our customers, and we tell them okay, there's a higher cost, the higher price.", "The less you send in, the less we have to store, the cheaper it is for the customer.", "It's a very fair model for customers; they can decide what they send, they can decide how they want to send it and they can download them down at a moment's notice.", "Martin:", "Karthik, you said that you are basically doing analytics based on the apps pinpointing where there might be an issue.", "Are you also doing predictive analytics for seeing maybe some patterns between your customers and seeing, there might be an issue for that kind of apps and there is some overlap in the usage of similar apps between some of those customers", "I see an issue rising at one customer therefore I may be predictive, tell another customer there might be an issue coming around \u2013 here is how you should solve it.", "Karthik: We don't do that because of number of reasons.", "Number one, our customers are very sensitive about data privacy, right?", "So we even anonymize, we don't do that \u2013 there is no pattern matching between different customers.", "It's completely isolated; there's no comparison of one customer to another.", "Secondly, I think one of the things that's fundamentally different is that every application is unique.", "And we have a massive fragmentation in a number of applications today compared to twenty years ago.", "Twenty years ago, everyone was running package software, and so you could look at Oracle trends across 10,000 customers.", "But today, Salesforce is very different from Work Day which is very different from Facebook, very different from Google and they are all unique applications that have their unique workload characteristics and unique hardware configurations.", "And so it doesn't make as much sense anymore to do those patterns across customers.", "There could be some benchmarking sorts of things down the road but at this point we're focusing more on giving the tools to the customers, the exploratory tools so they can richly understand their own data and look at the patterns in their own data and draw conclusions from that rather than trying to solve problems from looking at patterns across customers.", "Martin: Karthik, what have been the major obstacles over the last three years and how did you overcome them?", "Karthik:", "Well, I think as with any enterprise business one of biggest question marks is what your market model is going to look like.", "I think that when we started with the company we had a lot of conviction that there was a huge need for a product like what we built.", "And I think that's been validated over and over again, the more we talked to customers and the more we are around in the marketplace.", "I think the big question mark in the early days was what our go to market motion looks like; do we sell more to mid market accounts, enterprise accounts, where is the interest going to be?", "In the early days you have to spend a lot of time experimenting with different accounts.", "For us, it's turned out that there are all sorts of segments.", "We've got some great large customers that are traditional enterprises in large web skill organizations where they're essentially replacing their entire monitoring systems with SignalFx.", "We have midsize customers that move a little bit more quickly.", "And the deal sizes are not quite as big but you know they want to have more of that transaction motion.", "And so we've seen both models and then I think figuring out how to structure our team so that we can best equip both of those segments to be successful, that has been a kind of our biggest learning over the past year.", "And I wouldn't say it's a challenge but I would say that that was a big question mark when we went into our launch \u2013 what kind of go to market motion do we need to build for these different segments?", "Should we focuse more on one or another or gain the opportunity in both?", "And we've certainly seen the customers across the entire spectrum and so designing the go to market organization to support all of those customers has been probably the biggest area of investment for us as a company in the last 6 months.", "Martin: And what type of experience did you do in order to validate your go to market strategy?", "Karthik: With sales it was very easy.", "You see your customers signing up for your service.", "Are they willing to pay you?", "And so the experiments are \u2013 I think you experiment with messaging and you see which message has worked.", "In my experience, one of the things that we did very well is we hired some exceptional people in field who are very thoughtful, listen well, very intelligent.", "They have almost qualities like stem cells; they can adapt and become whatever model we need them to become and it was an incredible luxury to have people like that in the early days because we were able to really listen to customers, observe the patterns that were coming in and be able to figure out, ok, well, this is how we need to design our go to market motion versus assuming that it was going to be one way or another.", "I think we're able to adapt very quickly based on what was on the market.", "Martin: And how did you find those generalists sales people?", "Karthik:", "We interviewed a lot of people and I think we were just fortunate that we found some really high quality individuals who were willing to come and work with us.", "# ADVICE TO ENTREPRENEURS FROM KARTHIK RAU", "Martin: Karhtik, this is your first company that you've started for yourself.", "What type of advice would you share with other people thinking about starting a company?", "Karthik: Lots of things.", "You can spend a lot of time talking about this.", "I think what most of entrepreneurs would say is number one, you have to be very passionate about the idea because it is like a marriage \u2013 you are in it forever.", "You need to be excited about the team that you're starting working with; the co-founder chemistry has to be very, very strong; you have to really love what you're doing whether that's the product, the technology that you are building, or the team that you are building.", "So, I think that's absolutely critical.", "I think another thing that I would suggest to everyone is don't forget to enjoy the journey because I think a lot of people get so focused on \u2013 they are stressed about the outcome.", "That's natural.", "You are always trying to create the best organization that you can, but it's a beautiful journey.", "I think for me Mondays are my best days of the week.", "I get to come in and work with a fantastic group of people.", "Phil and I get to pick who we want to work with every day.", "We get influence it in a really meaningful way, the culture, the values that we care about.", "And that's a really beautiful thing.", "I think you have to stop and smell roses sometimes.", "That's one thing I think a lot of entrepreneurs forget to do.", "I think the third thing I would say is that every company is like a snowflake.", "It's all unique.", "Every company is absolutely unique.", "And people tend to pattern match and you will meet a lot of really smart people who have had great experiences and been very successful who will try to prescribe their approach to your company and everything changes.", "There is always some dimension that's changed.", "It could be the exact same technology and space from ten years ago versus today where markets are fundamentally different today versus 10 years ago.", "Your personalities are going to be different from other personalities, your founding team and culture everything is going to be unique so you really have to understand and introspect very well who are you, what do you do very well, what are your strengths, what are your weaknesses, what does your market truly look like, what's different about the market today versus five years ago, ten years ago and come up with a unique strategy because you are unique, your situations are unique.", "And you can get incredible input and advice from people but all of that input and advice comes with a bias and if you understand that bias you can then tease out the bias and just try to understand which of these things should be applicable to my world and which are not.", "But oftentimes it means you have to make a decision that is a lonely decision because it's based only on your company and what you have to do but it's very, very important that you make that decision on what's best for your company and not based on what's other people telling you.", "I think that's a very important thing to do when starting a company.", "And then I think the last thing I would suggest is from a personality point of view \u2013 I think you have to really, really enjoy the wins a lot more than you get down by the losses.", "Because every company has its ups and downs and as you go through the life cycle of a company early on by its very nature if you're in the market that's a new market that people haven't figured out as the big market yet you're going to have more people not understanding what you do very well understands what you do then someone else who is bigger and has more capacity to fulfill the demand with the market.", "So your timing has to be right from the beginning.", "You grow as the market is growing and that necessarily means that in the early days you're going to have fewer wins but you have to really relish the wins.", "That is everything I would suggest to people.", "Martin: You said that every Monday you are very happy to come to the office and work with great people and shaping the company and culture.", "What do you do to shape the culture of the company?", "Karthik: I think it starts first of all with who you hire.", "Culture, it's not something that you write up on a wall with a few bullet points.", "It has to be embedded in everything you do, every decision you make, every person you hire, what behaviors you embrace and reinforce and which behaviors you try to eliminate.", "I think it starts with the people you hire so you have to be very prescriptive about what are the cultural attributes that you care about.", "When we interview people we always have at least one person do a fit screen culture screen.", "I interview everyone that comes into the company and I'm always the final culture screen.", "And we're very prescriptive about what are the cultural attributes that we look for and that is very, very important.", "We've turned away a lot of people that are incredibly talented individuals but we felt that they didn't map to the kind of company and the culture that we wanted to build.", "So for us there are things like we really care about intellectual curiosity and someone, for example, like engineers that ask questions about the business and our business model are candidates that we really like.", "If there's a very talented engineer that shows no interest in the business, it really sways things to the other.", "Because we want everyone at our company to operate as business owners and we screen for that from the very beginning.", "And similarly on the sale side, when we are interviewing sales people we like them to ask and want to understand product strategy.", "And in that way we get everyone who when they are at the company, they are custodians of the business and they may be wearing a particular hat to be a salesperson or an engineer for their day-to-day jobs, but if they see something that they question there are not afraid to ask a question and then collectively as a team will make better decisions because we've got a variety of perspectives.", "So that's one independent thinking as another.", "Because as a start-up you have to take risks and you have to go against the grain sometimes and you have to make non obvious conclusions and so we really try especially in leadership positions to find people who are creative and will connect the dots in ways that other people don't.", "If we learn interesting things in an interview and we see different perspectives that we haven't seen before that's positive for us.", "There are all of sorts of these things that we try to do to screen for culture.", "So who you hire, the behaviors that you enforce, who you promote into management positions is one of the most important factors in building a culture, because I never would run a company we will see these are the behaviors that are rewarded.", "The behavior of managers is also very significant because that's again what people look at us \u2013 this is what the company values.", "You have to be very careful about who you promote, what behaviors they're displaying to the rest of the company, how you allocate different responsibilities to people, who you get what projects.", "Again it reflects to the rest of the company what qualities do we admire and respect.", "If we have a really big problem that we need to solve and it is very important for the company to solve it and we give these three people the role of solving that problem and it tells the company these are the three that were trusting to solve this big problem and they are obviously the skills that they have that the company really appreciates and respects.", "This isn't just about technical skills.", "It's technical skills, it's interpersonal skills, it's just all of these things become your culture.", "And I think it really starts with the people who you hire, who you promote, who you give certain roles too.", "And then myself and Phil, my co-founder, how we act every day is I think people look to us too, and the things that we value and how we treat people and treat partners and look at the opportunities.", "I think this is something that people look at as an example.", "There are so many different things that are involved in building a culture but I think the key is that you have to keep reinforcing certain tendency and do that across the entire company.", "Martin: Karthik, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.", "It was really the pleasure.", "Karthik: Thank you, Martin, very nice to meet you.", "Martin: Likewise.", "And the next time when you are starting a company you should really focus also in the beginning on the company's culture that you are hiring the right people not only based on the skills but also based on the attitude, because you want to minimize the asshole factor, for example, what do they work and be very curious about what they are working.", "Thank you so much.", "#### Share your thoughts and

At 4:05\u00a0p.m. (22:05 UTC) the fire crossed Highway\u00a063 at Airport Road (formerly Highway\u00a069), south of Fort McMurray, and threatened the international airport, which had suspended commercial operations earlier in the day. The fire also forced the re-location of the Regional Emergency Operations Centre, which was originally in the vicinity of the airport. On May\u00a04, the fire was found to be producing lightning and pyrocumulus clouds due to its heat and large size, which added to the risk of more fires. The fires became large enough to create a firestorm, creating its own weather in the form of wind influxes and lightning.\n The fire continued to spread south on May\u00a05 across 85,000 hectares (210,000 acres) and forcing additional evacuations in the communities of Anzac, Gregoire Lake Estates and the Fort McMurray First Nation. These communities had accepted over 8,000 people during the initial evacuations. "}}

The fire also forced the re-location of the Regional Emergency Operations Centre, which was originally in the vicinity of the airport. On May\u00a04, the fire was found to be producing lightning and pyrocumulus clouds due to its heat and large size, which added to the risk of more fires. The fires became large enough to create a firestorm, creating its own weather in the form of wind influxes and lightning.\n The fire continued to spread south on May\u00a05 across 85,000 hectares (210,000 acres) and forcing additional evacuations in the communities of Anzac, Gregoire Lake Estates and the Fort McMurray First Nation. These communities had accepted over 8,000 people during the initial evacuations. The Government of Alberta announced a plan to airlift approximately 8,000 people."}}

who travelled north of Fort McMurray were advised to stay where they were, and not to come south on Highway\u00a063 as the fire was still burning out of control. A boil-water advisory was issued for the entire area just after 11\u00a0a.m. (17:00 UTC). At 4:05\u00a0p.m. (22:05 UTC) the fire crossed Highway\u00a063 at Airport Road (formerly Highway\u00a069), south of Fort McMurray, and threatened the international airport, which had suspended commercial operations earlier in the day. The fire also forced the re-location of the Regional Emergency Operations Centre, which was originally in the vicinity of the airport. On May\u00a04, the fire was found to be producing lightning and pyrocumulus clouds due to its heat and large size, which added to the risk of more fires. The fires became large enough to create a firestorm, creating its own weather in the form of wind influxes and lightning.\n The fire continued to spread south on May\u00a05 across 85,000 hectares (210,000 acres) and forcing additional evacuations in the communities of Anzac, Gregoire Lake Estates and the Fort McMurray First Nation. These communities had accepted over 8,000 people during the initial evacuations. The Government of Alberta announced a plan to airlift approximately 8,000 people. 25,000 people had evacuated to oil sands work camps north of Fort McMurray."}}

is a great idea, a panacea for the nation's relentless energy woes.", "Such a conviction however rests upon a very tenuous set of assumptions about coal energy: whether it has a major role to play in 21st century electricity portfolios, there are no competitive alternatives available on the same tract of land, it's the quickest and most economical large-scale electricity project that can be delivered with the allocated resources, it's necessary to keep the lights on, that it may even result in electricity exports, and hence it's worth all the multi-billion dollar investment and

to the country's long-term energy woes.", "But aside from its environmental repurcussions, it doesn't even make economic sense, argues an energy expert", "By drawing our attention to the gestalt of

affordable, sustainable pricing and alignment to the demand pattern of consumption.", "In Pakistan, a vicious cycle persists between the lack of affordable electricity and struggling socio-economic development.", "So it should certainly be a topmost national priority to decisively solve this problem, not merely with stopgap measures but systematically for the long run.", "Coal became the global workhorse of large-scale electricity in the 19th and 20th centuries.", "The discovery of oil and gas between the two world wars, the superiority of energy density in these fossil fuel cousins was a significant setback to the global coal market, not to mention the market entrance of radioactive uranium later on.", "The 1973 oil shock to the United States, the world's single largest national economy, spurred a fresh momentum for coal.", "At that time, the US did not know how much natural gas it had or its extraction technology.", "Copycat economies, especially those with ample coal reserves of their own, followed the US's example.", "The worldwide electricity share of coal grew from 30.3 percent in 1974 to a peak of 41.3 percent in 2007, but has been faltering since.", "During the coal boom, the many ill-effects of coal electricity, from environmental destruction to greenhouse gas emissions to a lethal impact on human health became increasingly obvious, extensively

fade.", "PAKISTAN'S LATE ROMANCE", "Pakistan was unable to mine coal in its heyday.", "The opportunity of coal from the Thar desert became a hot topic about a decade ago, ironically when the smarter economies started its retirement planning from their energy portfolios.", "The perception built around the Thar coal reserves was the discovery of a momentous national solution, even though the reserves consist of lignite, a lowly ranked form of coal in energy content.", "Engro pounced on the opportunity, first forming the Engro Powergen Thar Limited (EPTL), then teaming up in a joint venture with the Sindh government for the mining \u2014 a clever move to lock in the political and bureaucratic establishment with its corporate financial plans.", "According to a publicly available information pack, EPTL initially planned two stages of coal power scaling up from 600 megawatt (MW) to 1.2 gigawatt (GW), the numbers would change a few times over the years.", "The selected mining

indigenous resources in the country, the Thar coal project presents a tremendous growth opportunity.\"", "According to a news report (Dawn, July 2017), the National Electric Power Regulatory Authority

and the Sindh government have invested considerable time and financial resources in the protracted Thar project planning, mining and other works to date, a project of this magnitude deserves intense scrutiny at every stage, a check of how it compares to alternative courses of action at each juncture.", "Whatever financial spending has happened to date is a \"sunk cost\", money that has already been spent and cannot be recovered, whether for good or bad.", "What matters most is deciding the best path forward, based on what we now know.", "To assess the value of coal power, one must understand the nature of the beast.", "Coal follows the thermal route to electricity generation.", "There are two basic defining characteristics of thermal power plants: technical and commercial.", "A

National Energy Administration abruptly cancelled all 103 of its new coal power plant licences totalling 1.2 GW capacity.", "China learnt the hard way that a strategy of green coal power based on supercritical and ultra-supercritical technology had spawned \"white elephants\" in a \"provincial pipe dream\".", "Utilisation rates for coal power were plummeting.", "Independent US research into the Chinese experience came to the conclusion that it's not a good idea to follow the same failing strategy (though obviously the Trump administration wasn't paying attention).", "Renewables and gas

crossed $44 billion last year.", "China is eagerly consolidating its global leadership in renewables, as a consumer, manufacturer and investor.", "The future of coal in India is also in jeopardy.", "Hazardous air pollution, of great peril to the political establishment, has necessitated tighter emissions controls for new coal power plants, spiking the total deployment costs.", "Renewables, both solar and wind, have soundly beaten coal to become the cheapest electricity source in India.", "Two-thirds of India's coal power is now more expensive than renewables.", "Replacing these coal power plants with renewables would save Indian consumers up to $8 billion annually.", "Recent research indicates that further investment in coal will result in India missing its Paris Agreement emissions targets and/or cause a proliferation of stranded assets.", "A stranded asset means a power plant that has to be operationally abandoned before the completion of its planned financial lifetime.", "In contrast, there is little risk of a stranded asset in renewables because the variable operational cost is zero.", "Unsurprisingly, the Indian government is beating a strategic retreat from coal,

660 MW power plant", "While the more savvy energy planners are busy migrating to 21st century electricity portfolios, we seem intent on financing a power supply chain that will become obsolete before the investment fully pays off.", "Although renewables have become cheaper, are cleaner, and save on the scarce, precious resource of freshwater, a trite argument used by die-hard coal advocates is that it's necessary to provide baseload power.", "A few years ago, the CEO of UK's National Grid famously remarked in an interview, \"The concept of baseload is already outdated\", going on to explain that \"the idea of a large baseload generator that runs pretty much all of the time ... just doesn't have as good a fit to the market conditions we expect to see.\"", "Baseload power means the provision of a minimum threshold of power for a sustained period of time.", "Coal power plants are no longer needed for it.", "The diversification of electricity supply to renewables and NG has enabled a more robust paradigm of flexible power generation.", "The minimum threshold is securely and economically taken care of, not to mention the unexpected deviations in demand.", "The old baseload contracts that coal needed for economic profitability are now defunct, incongruous with modern electricity planning.", "An illustration of how the future electricity needs for hot climates like Pakistan, the so-called duck curve of aggregated demand variation in such conditions, can be best served by renewables and NG without the need for any coal:", "The whole point behind sprawling, capital intensive, transmission and distribution networks is taking advantage of diversified electricity sources.", "Flexible power generation has been likened to a musical orchestra, the conductor needs to know what instrument to play at different times to satisfy the tune of demand.", "Solar and wind generation are complementary in terms of their daily and seasonal variation.", "NG chimes in well, coal doesn't.", "Energy storage is also an essential part of the band.", "When a large coal power plant trips, as it will do, a backup energy storage unit of equal power output capacity is needed to quickly compensate for the outage.", "With distributed renewables, any single outage of a solar PV or wind system will not require the same level of backup.", "The geographical distribution of electricity supply, the more renewables the better, reduces such backup costs.", "The backup requirement also kicks in during the downtime of power plants, for periodical maintenance operations.", "The typical guaranteed plant availability of solar PV and wind is over 98-99 percent, while it is around 70-80 percent for coal.", "The operational maintenance of solar PV and wind plants is much simpler than that for coal power, so their scheduled and unexpected downtime is much less.", "Energy storage comes in several varieties.", "Large-scale centralised energy storage can consist of pumped hydro \u2014 the Makran coast offers possible locations \u2014 or compressed air energy storage, perhaps feasible in the abandoned salt mines of Khewra.", "Decentralised energy storage in the form of MW-scale batteries is making rapid advances in cost and ease of installation.", "MW-scale batteries are ideal for storing the cheap electricity of solar and wind, shifting the supply to different times of the day.", "This advancing technology front boosts the case for renewables, accelerates the inevitable obsolescence of coal.", "In countries such as Pakistan, where the transmission and distribution networks are weak and plagued by energy theft, an attractive alternative is the bottom-up electricity infrastructure development of micro-grids.", "These micro-grids can deliver reliable power at various levels e.g. an industrial zone, rural village or metropolitan area.", "Coal power is not suitable for micro-grids because, unlike renewables, it is not modular and incrementally scalable.", "Micro-grid projects rely primarily on renewables and NG from local renewable sources (methane from waste).", "These micro-grids can be set up far more quickly than thermal power plants, and offer an ideal quick fix solution to local load-shedding.", "NATIONAL SECURITY OR FOLLY", "Dumper trucks at the Thar-Block-II mining site", "It's unlikely that the Thar coal power output will be in demand for exports to India.", "The area on the other side of the border is prioritised for India's national solar strategy, and we know the cost of this solar electricity is cheaper than the output price of the proposed Thar coal project.", "We also know that India is phasing out its own reliance on coal power, as it's incompatible with a forward-looking electricity portfolio based mainly on renewables.", "Sustainable electricity at affordable prices for the long run without technical or financial risks, mitigating climate change, optimal use of our land, water management, clean air, and avoiding social discontent that can be politically exploited, are all issues of major national security importance.", "The Thar coal endeavour needlessly creates vulnerabilities in every aspect.", "Energy independence is better secured by renewables than resorting to the Thar coal reserves.", "There is no need for a trade-off between cheap, reliable electricity supply and preserving our natural environment.", "The situation might have been different when the Thar coal project was originally envisaged, but we can surely do better now, learning from the experiences of others and understanding the latest options available with an eye on future developments.", "The Thar coal is best left buried as it is.", "A few may fleetingly benefit from this silly, blighted scheme but it's not worth sacrificing the well-being of the many and national security for it, and it is not worth proving how myopic and self-destructive a nation we have become, easily led astray.", "It would be a grave

Power stations that burn coal also consume large quantities of water. This can affect the flows of rivers, and has consequential impacts on other land uses.

although they're a little better off than Akaar's very pregnant wife Eleen, who's life is forfeit because she's carrying a potential competitor for Maab in her womb.", "(This really is more medieval than Native American, isn't it.)", "Our heroes escape from camp with Eleen in tow, but that isn't the end of their problems.", "Their communicators are gone, the Enterprise is off chasing phantom distress signals, and they've got a whole mess of pissed off semi-giants who've spent their entire lives learning combat to deal with.", "Plus, Eleen isn't exactly thrilled to be included in the escape.", "Given the choice between death at the hands of her people, or bowing to the will of a group of strange aliens\u2026 well, it's not really much of a choice, is it.", "\"Child\" is a collection of cliches, but it works well for all of that.", "Ridiculous costumes aside, the Cappellans are a credible threat; the Klingon's presence naturally increases the difficulties of the situation; and McCoy's relationship with Eleen, who grows to trust him only after he smacks her upside the head (she smacked him first, of course), is well-handled.", "The series often ends up as The Kirk And Spock Power Hour, so seeing McCoy play a major role is neat, and he gets in some great lines.", "(\"Look, I'm a doctor, not an escalator!\")", "It's also worth noting that, despite their growing bond, Eleen still knocks the doc out and escapes soon after giving birth to her kid (having grown up on sitcoms that waste whole episodes on deliveries-in-awkward-places, I was charmed by the fact that Eleen's delivery takes place off-screen, in about two minutes).", "She does try and save McCoy and the others when she meets up with Maab's group, but it's refreshing that she doesn't completely lose her own values and personality after being \"saved.\"", "The episode has a few demerits, though.", "The subplot that has the Enterprise distracted by a fake call for help is necessary to explain why they don't just beam down to the planet to see what's keeping the captain, but it makes Scotty look awfully dumb for taking so long to figure things out.", "(He makes up for it with a metal moment later on when the Klingon ship tries to block the Enterprise's path.", "Although it can't be that easy to block someone's path in three dimensional space.)", "Having the Klingons show up as a rival makes for solid continuity, but they seem awfully passive for what we've seen of the species.", "There's only one of them on the planet with the Capellans, and the Klingon ship that threatens the Enterprise mostly just hangs around.", "For all their fighting prowess, the Capellans couldn't put up much of a fight against,say, phaser bombardment.", "Why the pussy-footing?", "The whole subterfuge thing doesn't seem very Klingon, either.", "As for the Capellans themselves, how is it that a race that prides itself on its talent for combat could get its ass handed to it with such monotonous regularity by James T. Kirk?", "They guy doesn't even break a sweat.", "Still, props to the ep for having the Capellans take down the Klingon themselves at the end, through a sacrifice play that actually holds consistent to their major philosophy.", "Maab puts the needs of the many ahead of his life, and after his death, Eleen's infant son is put in charge, with Eleen acting as his regent; it's a safe bet that the Federation will get all those \"rocks\" they've been clamoring for.", "You gotta wonder just how the prime directive works when Starfleet starts sending equipment and ships to a pre-tech planet (they haven't even invented bows yet\u2014most likely because they're big on hand-to-hand).", "In arguing for the Federation over the Klingon Empire, Kirk promises that the Capellans will never lose the right to rule their home, and I think we can take him at his word.", "Even with that promise, though, it's a forced change.", "Maybe the whole Indian thing wasn't that far off after all.", "If \"Friday's Child\" is McCoy's change to shine, then \"The Deadly Years\"\u2026 isn't.", "But then, nobody shines that brightly in an episode that tries for pathos and largely manages to achieve only dull discomfort.", "The high concept for this outing: a strange effect causes Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Scotty, and one poor crew-woman to age rapidly.", "Apparently old age is still hell even in the future, as our heroes struggle with memory loss, increased physical sensitivity, bad tempers, and some surprisingly credible make-up jobs.", "It's an unexciting concept that hasn't been thought out very well, and the resulting episode, a few quirky moments aside, is a let down.", "The Enterprise is visiting to Gamma Hydra IV to check in on a science expedition lead by Robert Johnson.", "All they find are some very old corpses, plus Johnson and his wife.", "According to Spock, no one in the expedition was elderly, but the corpses all died of old age, and Mr. and Mrs. Johnson themselves appear to be edging past the outskirts of the Matlock demographic, despite Johnson's assertion that he's just 28 years old.", "Clearly, something went wrong.", "But instead of quarantining the facility on the planet and trying to figure things out, everybody beams back aboard the Enterprise.", "Since the cause of the rapid aging could very well be biological and contagious, and given that this crew has already dealt with its fair share of bad bugs (like in \"Miri,\" where Kirk was smart enough to keep anyone potentially infected off ship until they could find a cure), you'd think our crew wouldn't be quite so blase about the problem.", "Sure, Kirk starts up a blue ribbon panel of experts\u2014including a Commodore Stocker, who offers us some variation in Starfleet administrative personnel by being passively dickish, and Dr. Jan Wallace, a former flame of Kirk's, along with the standard peanut gallery\u2014but it doesn't never occurs to anybody that the people who beamed down to the surface could be in danger.", "And they are, they really are.", "It isn't long before Kirk, McCoy, and the rest start visibly aging (like I said, the make-up isn't bad, and it's surprisingly subtle, too; the changes start even before our attention is drawn to them), and with both of the Johnsons now expired, finding a cure suddenly became very, very important.", "Even worse, the Johnsons were crazy senile before they died, which means that in addition to no longer being quite as pretty, Kirk and the others have to deal with the knowledge that the longer they stay sick, the more their faculties will suffer.", "Not good for a doctor, or a science officer, or a chief engineer, but catastrophic for a star-ship captain.", "There's potential here; it's not hard to empathize with a terror of growing old, especially before one's time, and while \"Years\" does exaggerate the effects of aging on the mind, it still stays generally within recognizable limits.", "Kirk forgets things, repeats himself, and whenever anyone points out his mistakes, he gets angry\u2014as anyone who's ever dealt with a senile grandparent can tell you, that's not far off the mark.", "There are smaller touches as well, like Spock's increased sensitivity to cold, which makes a nice call-back to the heat of Vulcan mentioned in \"Amok Time.\"", "And there's no attempt to mollify the harshness of the experience, either.", "Nobody learns a valuable lesson about how getting old is just a natural part of life.", "Yet the episode never really feels all that personal.", "There are a few good bits\u2014my favorite comes when Jan starts putting the moves on slightly older Kirk, and he realizes she's doing it because she has a thing for older men.", "(\"What are you offering me, Jan? Love\u2014or a going away present?\")", "It's such a quirky, surprising scene, the wish fulfillment aspect being immediately undercut by the oddness of the lady's fetish.", "Jan never raises the issue again, and seems just as much interested in the young Kirk, post-cure, but you can't help wondering if their original relationship failed because Kirk still had all his hair.", "Good bits aside, there's not much effort being put in outside of the make-up.", "What really kills things is the competency hearing that eats up a good chunk of the running time.", "Jack-disease strikes fairly quickly, and since we can't find a cure for it until the last act, we've got to fill the other acts somehow.", "\"Years\" chooses to fill them by having Commodore Stacker question Kirk's ability to captain the ship, forcing Spock to put his friend on trial and humiliate him in front of his peers.", "There's precious little drama in the sequence, aside from the occasional cringe, as we spend the whole thing having characters describe scenes to us that we've already watched.", "And honestly, Kirk should step down.", "It's not a criticism of his leadership abilities to say that being struck with a rare illness that makes him liable to forget stuff means he can't do his job properly; in fact, the only negative mark on his character here is his refusal to see the truth, no matter how many of his mistakes are pointed out.", "Then there's Stacker, who starts off acting like a reasonable guy, and then turns into a moron as the script dictates.", "Once again, we've got an administrator who's on a schedule, so we hear the standard litany of complaints when Kirk refuses to leave Gamma Hydra's orbit.", "Stacker's polite about it at first, and when he talks to Spock about getting Kirk to relinquish command, it's hard not to see his point.", "But then he ruins everything by taking over the ship and ordering Sulu to set a course through the Neutral Zone.", "The hell?", "Are Commodores not taught basic space travel etiquette?", "You think they'd be even more concerned about maintaining proper diplomatic relations with an enemy than Kirk, and since we're never given any reason as to why Stacker's so desperate to get to Star Base 10 (I see we used up all our clever naming skills when we geniused up \"Gamma Hydra IV\"), he comes off as a tool, and a poorly written one at that.", "The only reason the Neutral Zone even comes up is to give us some suspense at the climax.", "Oh no, the Enterprise is under attack!", "Oh no, the Commodore has no idea what the fuck he's doing!", "We need Kirk on the bridge, but he's just so damn old.", "Wouldn't you know it, though, McCoy and Spock have just discovered the source of the problem (GH passed through a comet's tail, and I guess they had a choice between zombies or rapid degeneration and decided on the one that didn't require cannibalism), and, seeing as how Chekov was the only person to go down to the planet and be unaffected by the radiation, they determine that adrenaline\u2014Chekov freaked when he saw the first dead body\u2014can stop the radiation.", "Never mind that this is more than a little ridiculous (was Chekov terrified the entire time he was down there?), or that the physical effects of all that oldness should take more than few minutes to throw off, we have our cure!", "And Kirk demands he get it first, in the middle of a battle that the ship is losing, because he's the only one who can save everybody.", "The treatment works, Kirk rescues the weak-ass Commodore and the Enterprise from the nasty Romulans (in a clever moment, he re-uses a mistake his elderly self made earlier to trick the bad guys with an out-of-date code frequency), and Stacker learns a valuable lesson as to just how awesome Kirk is.", "A lesson that doesn't seem to have been needed, really; while he made some stupid calls, getting Kirk out of the captain's chair long enough to get cured isn't one of them.", "\"Years\" is plagued by lazy scripting.", "The quarantine problem just becomes more egregious as the episode continues, since once the landing party starts getting sick, the risk that the illness is contagious would seem to increase tenfold, but nobody gives a damn.", "We get a lot of aging cliches, and while it's fun watching everybody ham it up as elderly versions of themselves (hey, is that Shatner's actual hair?), that's not enough to make the whole fifty minutes compelling.", "A more honest connection to the central problem, and less manufactured dilemmas, and, well\u2026 I'm not sure you could get a great episode out of this premise, but you sure as hell could have gotten a better one.", "Grades:", "\"Friday's Child\": B+", "\"The Deadly Years\": B-", "Stray Observations:", "McCoy's baby-talk leaves something to be desired, but Spock's reaction is worth the silliness.", "Hey, we finally have an alien race that our heroes don't teach a valuable lesson to.", "Although McCoy does convince Eleen to care for her baby, and that means that the baby becomes head of the tribe, so\u2026 nuts.", "Poor Lieutenant Galway isn't given much to do beyond get worried, get old, and get dead, but she does get one good line in: \"That's a stupid place to hang a mirror.\"", "Why yes, yes it is.", "Tune in next week for \"Obsession\" and \"Wolf in the fold.\"", "## You may also like", "#### Samurai Slices A 100 Mph Baseball in Half", "Brian Ashcraft8/07/19 6:15amThe A.V.

After the Doubleday reports in 1980, \"The New York Times\" received a letter from the great-great-grandson of Adams that the \"Courant\" said attempted \"to try to set the record straight.\" The newspaper ran the letter in its April 13 issue, and added a 1939 piece by Roger Adams. In 1993, Thorn published research on Adams' contributions in the encyclopedia \"Total Baseball\". \"The New York Times\" published an article on Adams."}}

Hershisher made his first start on May 26, 1984, against the New York Mets and became a full-time starter in the Dodgers' rotation on July 14. \n Hershiser had pitched a 33+2\u20443-inning scoreless streak in 1984, eventually joining Gaylord Perry and Luis Tiant as the only pitchers between 1963 and 2014 with at least two streaks of this length. Hershiser's 1984 streak, which was the longest scoreless inning streak of the year, was broken up on July 24 by a home run by two-time NL Most Valuable Player Dale Murphy of the Atlanta Braves. His streak included a blown save on July 8 against the St. Louis Cardinals and a nine-inning shutout against the Cardinals on July 19. \n Despite an emergency appendectomy that delayed his spring training and shortened his time to get in shape for the season, Hershiser had been named NL Baseball Pitcher of the Month in April and a participant in the 1988 All-Star Game, getting outs against all three batters. In the eight games he started between July 10 and August 14, Hershiser had a 3\u20134 win\u2013loss record with a 4.76 earned run average (ERA), raising his season ERA from 2.46 to 3.06.

He made his major league debut for the Dodgers on September 1, 1983, against the Montreal Expos. Hershisher made his first start on May 26, 1984, against the New York Mets and became a full-time starter in the Dodgers' rotation on July 14. \n Hershiser had pitched a 33+2\u20443-inning scoreless streak in 1984, eventually joining Gaylord Perry and Luis Tiant as the only pitchers between 1963 and 2014 with at least two streaks of this length. Hershiser's 1984 streak, which was the longest scoreless inning streak of the year, was broken up on July 24 by a home run by two-time NL Most Valuable Player Dale Murphy of the Atlanta Braves. His streak included a blown save on July 8 against the St. Louis Cardinals and a nine-inning shutout against the Cardinals on July 19. \n Despite an emergency appendectomy that delayed his spring training and shortened his time to get in shape for the season, Hershiser had been named NL Baseball Pitcher of the Month in April and a participant in the 1988 All-Star Game, getting outs against all three batters. In the eight games he started between July 10 and August 14, Hershiser had a 3\u20134 win\u2013loss record with a 4.76 earned run average (ERA), raising his season ERA from 2.46 to 3.06. Following his August 14 start in which he left the game after two innings (his shortest appearance since 1985) with the Dodgers behind the Giants 8\u20132, he pitched complete games on August 19 (a shutout) and August 24. Prior to the game, Hershiser trailed teammate Tim Leary in shutouts, six to three."}}

justice system is reactive, not predictive: You are punished for the crime you committed.", "You can't be punished simply because you might commit one someday.", "You certainly can't be held indefinitely to prevent that possibility.", "And yet that is exactly what is happening to about 5,000 people convicted of sex crimes around the country.", "This population, which nearly doubled in the last decade, has completed prison sentences but remains held in what is deceptively called civil commitment \u2014 the practice of keeping someone locked up in an institution for months, years or even decades for the purpose of preventing possible future offenses.", "The authorities have the power to detain people with mental illnesses or disorders who cannot function independently, or who pose a danger to themselves or others.", "But since the early 1990s, this power has been used increasingly to imprison one distinct group: sex offenders.", "Federal law and the laws in 20 states and the District of Columbia allow people convicted of violent sex crimes \u2014 such as rape or child molestation \u2014 to be held in custody indefinitely past the end of their criminal sentences.", "The Supreme Court has upheld these laws on the grounds that they are not intended to punish or deter crime, but only to hold people until they are no longer a threat.", "In theory, a civilly committed person gets treatment and is released as soon as possible.", "In practice, however, it usually means leaving one prison for another \u2014 civil commitment facilities are generally high-security buildings patrolled by armed guards and ringed with barbed wire \u2014 from which many are never released.", "In a decision in June, a federal judge ruled that Minnesota's civil-commitment law for sex offenders violates the Constitution.", "Federal District Judge Donovan Frank said the law imposes \"a punitive system that segregates and indefinitely detains a class of potentially dangerous individuals without the safeguards of the criminal justice system.\"", "For example, local prosecutors \u2014 not clinicians or mental health professionals \u2014 choose whether to seek continued detention based on a screening test that claims to predict a person's likelihood of committing another sex offense, though there is no clear evidence such tests are accurate.", "Yet based largely on those screening tests, more than 700 Minnesotans who have completed their prison sentences are locked up, at an annual cost of more than $120,000 per person \u2014 triple the cost of prison.", "This civil commitment rate is by far the highest in the country.", "Some people have been held for more than 20 years.", "During that time, not one person has been released from the program unconditionally.", "A central flaw, Judge Frank said, is that Minnesota does not perform reassessments of risk, so the burden lies with the detainees to prove they no longer pose a danger.", "On Aug. 12, Judge Frank ordered the state to come up with constitutionally valid reforms by the end of September, or he \"may demand a more forceful solution.\"", "Despite the public perception that all sex offenders are recidivists \u2014 a belief that drove these laws in the first place \u2014 sexual re-offense rates are in fact lower than those for other crimes (though an unknown number of sex crimes go unreported).", "In addition, while some states' laws make it easier for detainees to earn their way out, 30 states have no civil-commitment laws at all, and there is no evidence that a state's sexual-violence rate is affected by whether it has such a law.", "As with California's three-strikes law or harsh mandatory-minimum sentences nationwide, the indefinite detention of sex offenders reflects the politics of fear and overreaction that drive so much of criminal justice policy.", "That was the case in Minnesota, which drastically increased the number of people it committed after a

the American criminal justice system is reactive, not predictive: You are punished for the crime you committed.", "You can't be punished simply because you might commit one someday.", "You certainly can't be held indefinitely to prevent that possibility.", "And yet that is exactly what is happening to about 5,000 people convicted of sex crimes around the country.", "This population, which nearly doubled in the last decade, has completed prison sentences but remains held in what is deceptively called civil commitment \u2014 the practice of keeping someone locked up in an institution for months, years or even decades for the purpose of preventing possible future offenses.", "The authorities have the power to detain people with mental illnesses or disorders who cannot function independently, or who pose a danger to themselves or others.", "But since the early 1990s, this power has been used increasingly to imprison one distinct group: sex offenders.", "Federal law and the laws in 20 states and the District of Columbia allow people convicted of violent sex crimes \u2014 such as rape or child molestation \u2014 to be held in custody indefinitely past the end of their criminal sentences.", "The Supreme Court has upheld these laws on the grounds that they are not intended to punish or deter crime, but only to hold people until they are no longer a threat.", "In theory, a civilly committed person gets treatment and is released as soon as possible.", "In practice, however, it usually means leaving one prison for another \u2014 civil commitment facilities are generally high-security buildings patrolled by armed guards and ringed with barbed wire \u2014 from which many are never released.", "In a decision in June, a federal judge ruled that Minnesota's civil-commitment law for sex offenders violates the Constitution.", "Federal District Judge Donovan Frank said the law imposes \"a punitive system that segregates and indefinitely detains a class of potentially dangerous individuals without the safeguards of the criminal justice system.\"", "For example, local prosecutors \u2014 not clinicians or mental health professionals \u2014 choose whether to seek continued detention based on a screening test that claims to predict a person's likelihood of committing another sex offense, though there is no clear evidence such tests are accurate.", "Yet based largely on those screening tests, more than 700 Minnesotans who have completed their prison sentences are locked up, at an annual cost of more than $120,000 per person \u2014 triple the cost of prison.", "This civil commitment rate is by far the highest in the country.", "Some people have been held for more than 20 years.", "During that time, not one person has been released from the program unconditionally.", "A central flaw, Judge Frank said, is that Minnesota does not perform reassessments of risk, so the burden lies with the detainees to prove they no longer pose a danger.", "On Aug. 12, Judge Frank ordered the state to come up with constitutionally valid reforms by the end of September, or he \"may demand a more forceful solution.\"", "Despite the public perception that all sex offenders are recidivists \u2014 a belief that drove these laws in the first place \u2014 sexual re-offense rates are in fact lower than those for other crimes (though an unknown number of sex crimes go unreported).", "In addition, while some states' laws make it easier for detainees to earn their way out, 30 states have no civil-commitment laws at all, and there is no evidence that a state's sexual-violence rate is affected by whether it has such a law.", "As with California's three-strikes law or harsh mandatory-minimum sentences nationwide, the indefinite detention of sex offenders reflects the politics of fear and overreaction that drive so much of criminal justice policy.", "That was the case in Minnesota, which drastically increased the number of people it committed after a recently released sex offender sexually assaulted and murdered a college student named Dru Sjodin in 2003.", "Public safety would be better served if resources were directed toward community supervision and other services for those leaving prison, rather than toward skirting the edges of the Constitution to keep them locked away.", "Follow The New York Times Opinion section on Facebook

Native American poverty, corrupt leadership, or inability to hold liquor.", "This culminated in late 1805 with a massive, largely fraudulent landgrab of 51 million acres.", "Harrison and his aides

for one penny per two hundred acres.", "The leading Native American chief in the region, Tecumseh, grew increasingly angry by the endless encroachments of settlers.", "He envisioned a grand alliance

restoring America to rule by the Crown, and by this time they continued to assert themselves on the young nation's western frontiers.", "Two British forts stood across the river from Detroit, and

"Harrison was attempting to secure the land to expedite statehood for a section of the territory called Indiana.", "Indian tensions, inflamed by Tecumseh, were high, and the timing for such an action was not good.", "The presidency of the United States, however, had just changed hands from Thomas Jefferson to James Madison, and in the shift of power, Harrison's actions went largely unquestioned by the federal government.", "Harrison did not invite Tecumseh or other openly hostile tribes to the conference, despite the fact that earlier treaties had named these tribes sole owners of the land now in question.", "The Treaty of Fort Wayne was signed, and for Tecumseh, it was the last straw.", "He openly courted British military assistance, and redoubled efforts at assembling a confederacy of tribes to retake lost Indian lands.", "Word of this trouble reached Harrison through his network of spies among the Indian tribes, and he began asking President Madison to fund military preparations.", "Madison, not eager to start a fight, dragged his feet, and Harrison attempted to negotiate an end to the crisis with Tecumseh.", "He sent a letter to the chief, warning him: \"Our Blue Coats (U.S. Army soldiers) are more numerous than you can count, and our hunting shirts (volunteer militiamen) are like the leaves of the forests or the grains of sand on the Wabash.\"", "#### War with Tecumseh", "Tecumseh and his elite guard of about 75 warriors confronted Harrison and his officials outside the governor's Grouseland home on August 15, 1810.", "The two had never met in person, and for days the impassioned Tecumseh berated the affable, condescending Harrison.", "He plainly told the governor that any further incursions into Indian lands would mean war.", "Harrison insisted that the land had been acquired legally, and Tecumseh began shouting that the governor was a liar.", "Swords and war clubs were drawn, pistols cocked, and for a few seconds both sides stared one another down.", "The council broke up, and negotiations never really got back on track.", "Tecumseh traveled throughout the great territory, recruiting tribes for his quest to retake it.",

outlying settlements increased.", "In the late summer of 1811, the Madison administration finally sanctioned a raid to punish the Native Americans.", "Despite being thirteen years removed from military experience, Harrison managed to convince the President to allow him to command the operation.", "In October, he set out from Vincennes with a mixed force of regular Army troops, volunteers, and militia.", "Harrison saw it as a good time for such a strike because Tecumseh was out of the territory recruiting allies for his cause; in his absence, the Indians were led by his brother, Tenskwatawa, a spiritual leader known as the \"Prophet.\"", "#### Battle at Tippecanoe", "On the sixth day of November in 1811, Harrison's force of about 950 moved into position outside the Prophet's camp, beside a small river known as the Tippecanoe.", "Tired from their march, they made a camp of their own and prepared to attack the next day.", "It had been a long time since Harrison had commanded troops, and the rust quickly showed.", "The Indians discovered his force by the campfires he had allowed, and they infiltrated his camp before dawn on November 7.", "Outnumbered, the Prophet's warriors were short of ammunition, but they had surprise on their side.", "Several Army officers were killed, and their men broke and ran.", "Others staggered from their tents.", "Dazed with sleep and terror, silhouetted against the campfires, many were cut down by the Prophet's warriors.", "Harrison leapt onto his horse almost immediately, rallying his men.", "Try as they might, the Indians could not get through the Army rifle lines and get the bulk of their force inside the camp.", "They broke off the attack and melted into the woods.", "Harrison ordered a counterattack that was successful in routing the Native Americans by midmorning.", "The graves of several Indians killed in the battle were dug up and desecrated.", "The battle became the talk of the young nation.", "Public reaction to Harrison's actions ran mixed, but was on the whole favorable.", "There were mutterings of poor generalship and the steep loss of life, but others welcomed the revenge on the Indians whose raids had increased in frequency and severity on the western frontier.", "#### War of 1812 and Battle at Thames River", "The Battle of Tippecanoe was good for William Henry Harrison and no one else.", "While the Native American alliance had been badly frayed, it only hardened the resolve of warrior chiefs like Tecumseh.", "Now they were not just fighting to retake their land; they were seeking revenge.", "Vicious new raids terrified the settlers.", "In the meantime, relations with Britain had worsened badly, and when America declared war against it in the summer of 1812 the Indians were even further emboldened.", "By fall, Harrison commanded all forces in the Northwest with the rank of major general.", "With the country ill prepared for war, it had been a disastrous summer for the American cause.", "Much of the Indiana Territory had fallen to British control, and the fortress at Detroit had surrendered disgracefully.", "Harrison received orders to retake Detroit and thus bolster morale, but Harrison cautiously held back, unwilling to press the war northward.", "In September of 1813, however, Americans regained control of Lake Erie with Oliver Hazard Perry's smashing victory over the British fleet.", "Once Perry sent the message, \"We have met the enemy and they are ours,\" England's prime supply line into the United was severed.", "American troops could now be ferried across the lake into Canada to engage the British.", "By the end of the month, Harrison's forces had retaken Detroit; they turned to chasing down the British and Native Americans.", "Among them was Harrison's old enemy, Tecumseh.", "On October 5, Harrison engaged the enemy in what is now Kent County in the province of Ontario, near a river called the Thames.", "Harrison's force outnumbered the British-Indian contingent three to one and contained a band of Kentucky marksmen who were tremendous close-in fighters.", "The British, poorly deployed and ill trained for such warfare, either fell dead or surrendered.", "Their general fled the battlefield.", "The Native Americans fared better, fighting off the initial assault by Harrison's men.", "But the American force was relentless and finally overpowering.", "Tecumseh was killed, and the Indians were routed, their alliance in the region smashed for good.", "The victory did much the same for Harrison that the triumph at New Orleans did for Andrew Jackson later in the war.", "(See Jackson biography, Life Before the Presidency section, for details.)", "The War of 1812 had been a string of demoralizing defeats for the Americans, and the conflict was unpopular with many factions.", "The victory at the Thames River boosted American morale and secured the national reputation of its commander.", "Harrison, however, handled his sudden fame in a very different fashion than Old Hickory, and the difference speaks volumes about each man.", "Jackson remained in the war and led expeditions against Native American contingents for years afterward.", "The battle at the Thames River, on the other hand, virtually finished Harrison's military career.", "Instead of following up on his triumph and wiping out the remaining British in Canada, Harrison took leave from the Army and undertook a tour of New York, Philadelphia, and Washington, soaking up the adulation offered by each city.", "He stayed in the East for months, choosing celebrity over duty, enjoying parties and banquets in his honor.", "In May of 1814, with the war still raging, William Henry Harrison resigned from the Army once again and settled into life on his farm in North Bend, near Cincinnati.", "He was forty-one years old.", "#### A Quarter-Century in the Political Wilderness", "Harrison's climb to political power would be a long and rocky one.", "He spent the following twenty-five years, well into his late sixties, trying to seek office of one kind or another.", "He was successful in getting to serve in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1816 to 1819.", "He lived well beyond his means and soon plunged deep into debt.", "Harrison tried to secure the office of secretary of war in the new administration of President James Monroe but lost out to John C. Calhoun.", "Harrison was also passed over for a diplomatic post to Russia.", "His political career began to come to a close.", "After his term in Congress, he returned to Ohio, won a post in its state senate, then lost a bid for governor of the state in 1820.", "Over the next two years, he ran for both of Ohio's seats in the U.S. Senate and lost both races.", "The failures peaked with an unsuccessful attempt to return to the U.S. House of Representatives in 1822, at the age of 59.", "Personal tragedy showed its face, too: six of Harrison's ten children died between 1817 and 1840.", "Harrison kept trying, and in 1824 he finally won a U.S. Senate seat.", "He had barely arrived in Washington, D.C., before he began angling for posts.", "He secured appointments to two military committees.", "Then Harrison prevailed on his old friend Henry Clay\u2014now secretary of state to the new President, John Quincy Adams\u2014to be named an ambassador to Colombia.", "Clay managed to push the appointment through in 1828, despite Adams's distaste for what he considered Harrison's \"rabid thirst for lucrative office.\"", "Colombia was a volatile post in early 1829, torn by revolution and foreign war.", "Harrison's missteps were bad and frequent.", "He failed to show neutrality in the nation's affairs and publicly sided with the opposition to President Sim\u00f3n Bol\u00edvar.", "Colombia angrily planned to expel the envoy.", "When Andrew Jackson assumed the presidency in March, he quickly recalled his old foe and used the post to repay a political favor from his campaign.", "Harrison returned to Ohio, where his farm did not perform well, and money problems grew; he was reduced to a menial job as recorder for his county to make ends meet.", "### William Freehling", "Emeritus Professor of Humanities", "University of Kentucky", "### More Resources", "###### William Harrison Presidency Page", "### William Harrison Essays", "###### Life in Brief", "###### Life Before the Presidency (Current Essay)", "###### Campaigns and Elections", "###### Domestic Affairs", "###### Foreign Affairs", "###### Death of the President", "###### Family Life", "###### The American Franchise", "###### Impact and Legacy"], "meta": {"id": "test04225-0", "claim_title": "William Henry Harrison", "claim_section": "Early life and education.", "claim_context": "Harrison was the seventh and youngest child of Benjamin Harrison V and Elizabeth (Bassett) Harrison, born on February 9, 1773 at Berkeley Plantation, the Harrison family home along the James River in Charles City County, Virginia.

Sawford/Rex/Shutterstock", "Chris Packham, the naturalist and TV presenter, has said it is \"disgusting and disappointing\" that the UK's wildlife crime agency faces closure in six weeks unless the government renews its funding.", "The national wildlife crime unit (NWCU) was established in 2006 to investigate offences including rare-bird egg theft, deer poaching, the trade in endangered species, hare coursing, illegal taxidermy and cruelty to wild animals.", "George Osborne's spending review, announced in November, did not confirm government funding for the agency beyond the end of March and it is now expected to close within weeks.", "The body, which receives the bulk of its funding from the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs and the Home Office, was told shortly before Christmas that a decision would be made about its future before the end of January \u2013 but it still hasn't heard anything.", "\"[This is] a specifically trained, unique and dedicated branch of the police force [which is] able to respond to an increasing range of crimes [in its attempt] to implement the law of the land,\" said Packham.", "The BBC broadcaster said: \"They are thus invaluable if we have any desire to protect our wildlife and countryside.", "Given the [financial] saving, one can only imagine there are ulterior motives to scrapping their funding.", "It's frankly disappointing and disgusting that we face this situation.\"", "Ch Insp Martin Sims, head of the NWCU, said that the closure of the unit would lead to the vast majority of wildlife crime going undetected.", "\"We are by far the cheapest option for policing across the UK in terms of support to wildlife crime,\" he said.", "Sims said the closure of the unit would mean there wouldn't be sufficient UK infrastructure to gather intelligence on wildlife crimes.", "Josh Kaile, head of public affairs at World Animal Protection UK, said: \"Not only is this a slap in the face to the hard-working staff in the NWCU but it makes you wonder whether our government cares at all about our wildlife.\"", "The government risks undercutting its leadership on wildlife issues, according to one of the world's foremost trackers of the wildlife trade.", "Steven Broad, executive director of Traffic, said: \"The UK government has shown commendable leadership to date in the international efforts to curb wildlife trafficking \u2013 it would appear very odd indeed if support for much-needed actions against wildlife crime at home were then undercut.\"", "WWF echoed Traffic, saying the government had done good work internationally but needed to \"walk the talk\" at home too.", "Heather Sohl, the group's chief adviser on wildlife, said: \"Rather than pulling the rug from under the unit that is vital to effectively tackle this criminal activity, the UK government should strengthen its stance and secure the NWCU's long term future.\"", "William Hague organised and hosted a summit on illegal wildlife trade in London two years ago, leading 46 nations to agree on a declaration addressing the problem.", "The Conservatives also promised in their manifesto last year to continue to tackle the issue: \"We \u2026 will continue to lead the world in stopping the poaching that kills thousands of rhinos, elephants and tigers each year.\"", "A government source said a decision would be made very soon, while a spokesperson said: \"The UK government is leading the global response to tackling illegal wildlife crime, funding practical action in developing countries through our illegal wildlife trade challenge fund, supporting anti-poaching projects and working with our African partners to improve the security of their parks.", "\"The national wildlife crime unit plays an important role in

Championship, an LPGA major, after making an eagle on the final hole to leap frog Kristy McPherson, who held a one shot lead going into the final hole. \n In August 2014, Lincicome lost a sudden-death playoff with Inbee Park at the LPGA Championship. She had held a one shot lead coming to the 72nd hole, but made bogey to fall back into a playoff. Lincicome lost the playoff at the first extra hole when she could only make a bogey to Park's par. \n Lincicome won her second major championship in April 2015, with a victory at the ANA Inspiration, the second time she had won this major. She moved into a tie for the lead after eagling the 72nd hole in regulation play, just as she had done when winning the title in 2009.  Lincicome prevailed in a sudden-death playoff over fellow American Stacy Lewis, winning with a par on the third extra hole. In 2018, Lincicome was granted a sponsor's exemption into the Barbasol Championship."}}

producer, lacing the likes of ASAP Rocky, Starlito and G-Side with his signature country rap tunes.", "You're one of the few rap producers still focused on doing full length collaborations with artists.", "What's the reasoning behind that approach?", "I started off in music working at a mom and pop store called Super Sounds in Atlanta, so my whole thought process in making music comes from how I would sell it to somebody.", "People used to come in the store ands say \"Yo what's hot?\" and you'd have to tell them, \"This is hot\" and why.", "So I try to figure out what those selling

is really more important than any type of marketing plan.", "If you look at all the big artists\u2014Snoop and Dre, TI and Toomp, Jay-Z and Just Blaze, there's always been a pairing and I think full lengths are probably the best way to expand upon that.", "Like SL Jones' Paraphernalia.", "Somebody like SL has been putting out a bunch of tapes but never really defined his sound and now you can listen to a bunch of the records we did on there and get SL Jones.", "It puts it in a more concise picture, it narrows the vision and tells the story a little bit cleaner.", "Do you ever worry that you're missing opportunities as far as placements by passing so many beats to just one artist at a time?", "Yeah definitely.", "That's why more recently I've been trying to find a balance between the two and still try to place major [beats].", "I was just out there working with Stalley in upstate New York and a couple other people, so I'm trying to get the placements up.", "But albums last longer, you're not going to forget [Burn & Starlito's] Renaissance Gangster, but you might forget just a random single that was buzzing at the moment.", "But it's a double edged sword.", "Do you usually try to be physically present in the studio with artists when producing for them?", "That's when the best music comes out.", "A lot of rappers don't get the whole process of making beats and all that, they just want the finished product and they want to rap on it but there's something that an artist can bring out of you when they are as into it as you are.", "With Paraphernalia we did eight records in the first day.", "SL's energy made me want to do doper beats and work more.", "Getting in the studio with somebody like Starlito brings out another side of him as well, it just makes for a better a product.", "You can't really produce somebody through email.", "You can send them a beat, but if you don't like the hook when they send it back you can say that but they might've already lived with it and played it a million times.", "If I was in the studio with them they might say, \"Yo I've got this idea for a hook\" and I could say like, Uh\u2026 maybe not this, try that.", "But once somebody falls in love with a verse or a hook it's kinda hard to change their opinion.", "What type of gear do you use?", "Right now I'm using Ableton.", "We sequence everything through Ableton but we pull sounds from Logic and Reason.", "I've been using a lot of old keyboards, the Rhodes and the Wurlitzer.", "I'm trying to go with different synthesizers, too, like the MicroKorg and stuff like that, just finding different sounds.", "I think our whole sound is retro-future, a little old, a little new.", "You do use a lot of live instrumentation too, right?", "I have a production team called Five Points Music Group.", "It's me, Ricky Fontaine who plays guitar, Walt Live, he produces, and The Professor, who plays bass and produces among other other things.", "Most of the instruments you hear on the records, all the guitars, all the bass, a lot of shakers and tambourines [are played live].", "Whatever we can do, we do it live.", "We just dropped an EP in January and we finished our second album, called Indeed Face.", "What else are you working on at the moment?", "We're finishing up Scotty's new album", ", we put out Summer Dreams last year and got a really good response so we're

and decided to go and do another tape.", "It's ten songs, I produced two of them.", "I think at the end of the year we're gonna follow it up with a full project that I'm producing.", "Dro's another guy who, with the right focus and someone with the right vision behind him, could be amazing.", "He's a raw talent.", "We're gonna try to get him re-entered into the different sound that we're coming with, kinda like with Lito's Mental Warfare.", "I had five songs on there and I'm doing his new album too.", "Was convincing artists to give you a look as a producer and not just a DJ a hard sell at first?", "I wouldn't even play beats for rappers the first year I did them, I would just play them for friends that were around.", "[A mutual friend] heard some stuff and sent some beats to Starlito, like, \"Yo I think you'd be perfect on this.\"", "I sent [Lito] like six beats and he rapped on five and then I sent him another five and he finished the tape.", "That one kinda filled itself.", "A lot of times a lot of rappers, and I won't say which, they have one certain song in mind that they feel they need to sell to go and do shows and this that and the other.", "They don't understand that if they do a dope ass album that'll get them way more fans than just having one hot song for four or five months.", "It seems like you put a real emphasis on finding talent, which isn't always a role that's associated with producers.", "I think I find talent better than I actually make music.", "I guess that comes from that DJ background, the consumer background.", "It helps to always be a fan, to

arguments abound about how to address the problem - so much so that a solution may not be achieved for years.", "Meanwhile, for thousands and thousands, the trip across Lake Washington has become a daily trial by traffic.", "Dan Piraino, a 16-year veteran of what has become the daily crawl along Highway 520, can vouch that there was a time when the highway was as clear as August in Seattle and the commute was an easy 15-mile trip.", "Today, the research scientist must roll out of bed by 5:30 a.m. to beat traffic and has joined a van pool to capitalize on car-pool lanes.", "If he were to drive his own car, he would be in congestion for an hour or more.", "\"The backups start earlier and earlier,\" said Piraino, who commutes from Seattle to Physio-Control in Redmond.", "\"One of these days, it's not going to be tolerable anymore.\"", "For many, it's intolerable now.", "Built to standards of the 1950s, the Evergreen Point Floating Bridge routinely carries twice as many vehicles as it was designed to handle.", "Traffic backs up to Interstate 5 and east of I-405 almost daily.", "Bad as it is, there's no assurance anything will be done about the 520 mess before Piraino's 6-year-old daughter graduates from college.", "Yet, despite a long history of failed attempts to improve 520, a new effort to find a solution is raising hopes of proponents.", "There are new concerns about the soundness of the bridge and a growing fear that traffic is getting so bad it will strangle economic growth.", "Some recent developments:", "-- The state's chief bridge engineer says some $88 million in immediate and long-term repairs are needed if the bridge is to remain safe and usable for another 20 years.", "That's about enough time to plan, fund and build a new bridge.", "-- An informal coalition of Eastside business leaders, backed by the city of Bellevue, has been meeting with legislators, and Seattle and Eastside residents to drum up support for a $3 million study of how best to move people and freight across the north end of Lake Washington.", "Support for the study seems to be growing and includes endorsements last week from the Seattle Chamber of Commerce and the Montlake Community Club.", "-- A new Bellevue Transportation Department study shows that cross-lake drivers are overwhelming city streets as they head to Interstate 90 trying to avoid Highway 520 backups.", "Seven studies, but no action", "One thing is sure: A new bridge or bridge improvements won't be built quickly or without a battle.", "It took 14 years of planning and argument to build the first 520 bridge.", "Thirty years of debate preceded completion of I-90 across the lake.", "Among the objections to a larger bridge: concerns of residents at each end that it would add traffic through their neighborhoods, the high cost of construction, and beliefs that expanding capacity isn't a smart way to deal with worsening congestion.", "At least seven major studies have looked at ways to cut congestion on 520, the first just nine years after the bridge opened.", "Adding rail service or making changes to inspire car pooling were among the ideas studied.", "But no proposal from any of these studies was implemented.", "The last study, in 1993, by Washington Transportation Partners (WTP), a public-private partnership, suggested spending $550 million to $900 million to either replace the bridge or build a parallel structure with bus and car-pool lanes.", "The proposal to finance the job with tolls so angered residents on both sides of the bridge that it was abandoned.", "Meanwhile, traffic jams worsened as Microsoft led an employment boom that put thousands more commuters on the road.", "Almost as many of Microsoft's 9,000 Redmond employees commute to work from Seattle as from the Eastside.", "Last spring, representatives from Boeing, Weyerhaeuser, Bellevue Square and other economic powerhouses met quietly on the Microsoft campus to discuss concerns that the region's economic vitality would wither should highways become so clogged employees couldn't get to work and freight couldn't get to market.", "They urged the Regional Transit Authority (RTA) to include a $3 million study of Highway 520 and possible construction of new transit lanes across the lake in last fall's (successful) $3.9 billion ballot issue.", "But the RTA board refused on grounds that a bridge study would doom its transit plan a second time.", "Business leaders are again pushing for a $3 million study of the \"520 corridor.\"", "Half of the money would come from the state through a transportation-revenue package that hasn't yet been funded.", "The Puget Sound Regional Council is applying for federal matching funds to pay for the rest.", "\"We can't ignore it any more.", "It's a critical corridor.", "There's too much growth on the Eastside to ignore it,\" said Barry Murphy, Microsoft's regional government-affairs manager.", "But choosing which options to study is a political hot potato.", "John Okamoto, the Department of Transportation's regional administrator, proposes that a broad-based advisory committee decide.", "Some ideas already making the rounds: better roads around the north end of the lake; a new bridge farther north; a wider 520 bridge; restricting some lanes to car pools, buses or light rail; and discouraging auto use by imposing tolls or work-site parking fees.", "Many activists, including members of \"No Expansion of 520,\" say bigger freeways aren't the answer.", "\"The era of the single-occupant vehicle, I think, is coming to an end.", "It's plain we can't keep on building highways so everyone can go to work in his or her own car and return home in his or her own car,\" said Cornelius Peck, former UW law professor and co-founder of the Seattle-based group.", "Peck's view is supported by a recent state Department of Transportation (DOT) analysis of possible improvements to Interstate 405, which says that even if the state spent $2 billion to add as many as three lanes in each direction, average traffic speeds would still fall to 28 miles per hour by 2020.", "No money for construction", "Even if a study of 520 were to be done, there's no money in state coffers to carry out its recommendations.", "With gas-tax revenue outpaced by construction costs, DOT has only enough money to maintain existing highways.", "Highway advocates in the Legislature already face an uphill battle to pass a revenue package that would generate $647 million in new highway funds over the next two years and $869 million the following two years.", "DOT's most recent estimates for adding two new transit lanes and making other fixes to the 520 bridge range from $710 million to $890 million.", "Winning Eastern Washington legislators' support for using the state's entire highway-building budget on a Seattle-area project would be difficult, to say the least.", "It isn't clear whether - or when - the 520 bridge will rise to the top of DOT's priority list.", "Unless it were funded with tolls, it would have to compete with other projects such as adding more high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes to the state's freeways, expanding the

Ervin, Peyton Whitely, Sarah Lopez Williams", "Seattle Times Eastside Bureau", "Between I-5 and I-405, Highway 520 is woefully overburdened and getting worse.", "There's consensus about that.", "But arguments abound about how to address the problem - so much so that a solution may not be achieved for years.", "Meanwhile, for thousands and thousands, the trip across Lake Washington has become a daily trial by traffic.", "Dan Piraino, a 16-year veteran of what has become the daily crawl along Highway 520, can vouch that there was a time when the highway was as clear as August in Seattle and the commute was an easy 15-mile trip.", "Today, the research scientist must roll out of bed by 5:30 a.m. to beat traffic and has joined a van pool to capitalize on car-pool lanes.", "If he were to drive his own car, he would be in congestion for an hour or more.", "\"The backups start earlier and earlier,\" said Piraino, who commutes from Seattle to Physio-Control in Redmond.", "\"One of these days, it's not going to be tolerable anymore.\"", "For many, it's intolerable now.", "Built to standards of the 1950s, the Evergreen Point Floating Bridge routinely carries twice as many vehicles as it was designed to handle.", "Traffic backs up to Interstate 5 and east of I-405 almost daily.", "Bad as it is, there's no assurance anything will be done about the 520 mess before Piraino's 6-year-old daughter graduates from college.", "Yet, despite a long history of failed attempts to improve 520, a new effort to find a solution is raising hopes of proponents.", "There are new concerns about the soundness of the bridge and a growing fear that traffic is getting so bad it will strangle economic growth.", "Some recent developments:", "-- The state's chief bridge engineer says some $88 million in immediate and long-term repairs are needed if the bridge is to remain safe and usable for another 20 years.", "That's about enough time to plan, fund and build a new bridge.", "-- An informal coalition of Eastside business leaders, backed by the city of Bellevue, has been meeting with legislators, and Seattle and Eastside residents to drum up support for a $3 million study of how best to move people and freight across the north end of Lake Washington.", "Support for the study seems to be growing and includes endorsements last week from the Seattle Chamber of Commerce and the Montlake Community Club.", "-- A new Bellevue Transportation Department study shows that cross-lake drivers are overwhelming city streets as they head to Interstate 90 trying to avoid Highway 520 backups.", "Seven studies, but no action", "One thing is sure: A new bridge or bridge improvements won't be built quickly or without a battle.", "It took 14 years of planning and argument to build the first 520 bridge.", "Thirty years of debate preceded completion of I-90 across the lake.", "Among the objections to a larger bridge: concerns of residents at each end that it would add traffic through their neighborhoods, the high cost of construction, and beliefs that expanding capacity isn't a smart way to deal with worsening congestion.", "At least seven major studies have looked at ways to cut congestion on 520, the first just nine years after the bridge opened.", "Adding rail service or making changes to inspire car pooling were among the ideas studied.", "But no proposal from any of these studies was implemented.", "The last study, in 1993, by Washington Transportation Partners (WTP), a public-private partnership, suggested spending $550 million to $900 million to either replace the bridge or build a parallel structure with bus and car-pool lanes.", "The proposal to finance the job with tolls so angered residents on both sides of the bridge that it was abandoned.", "Meanwhile, traffic jams worsened as Microsoft led an employment boom that put thousands more commuters on the road.", "Almost as many of Microsoft's 9,000 Redmond employees commute to work from Seattle as from the Eastside.", "Last spring, representatives from Boeing, Weyerhaeuser, Bellevue Square and other economic powerhouses met quietly on the Microsoft campus to discuss concerns that the region's economic vitality would wither should highways become so clogged employees couldn't get to work and freight couldn't get to market.", "They urged the Regional Transit Authority (RTA) to include a $3 million study of Highway 520 and possible construction of new transit lanes across the lake in last fall's (successful) $3.9 billion ballot issue.", "But the RTA board refused on grounds that a bridge study would doom its transit plan a second time.", "Business leaders are again pushing for a $3 million study of the \"520 corridor.\"", "Half of the money would come from the state through a transportation-revenue package that hasn't yet been funded.", "The Puget Sound Regional Council is applying for federal matching funds to pay for the rest.", "\"We can't ignore it any more.", "It's a critical corridor.", "There's too much growth on the Eastside to ignore it,\" said Barry Murphy, Microsoft's regional government-affairs manager.", "But choosing which options to study is a political hot potato.", "John Okamoto, the Department of Transportation's regional administrator, proposes that a broad-based advisory committee decide.", "Some ideas already making the rounds: better roads around the north end of the lake; a new bridge farther north; a wider 520 bridge; restricting some lanes to car pools, buses or light rail; and discouraging auto use by imposing tolls or work-site parking fees.", "Many activists, including members of \"No Expansion of 520,\" say bigger freeways aren't the answer.", "\"The era of the single-occupant vehicle, I think, is coming to an end.", "It's plain we can't keep on building highways so everyone can go to work in his or her own car and return home in his or her own car,\" said Cornelius Peck, former UW law professor and co-founder of the Seattle-based group.", "Peck's view is supported by a recent state Department of Transportation (DOT) analysis of possible improvements to Interstate 405, which says that even if the state spent $2 billion to add as many as three lanes in each direction, average traffic speeds would still fall to 28 miles per hour by 2020.", "No money for construction", "Even if a study of 520 were to be done, there's no money in state coffers to carry out its recommendations.", "With gas-tax revenue outpaced by construction costs, DOT has only enough money to maintain existing highways.", "Highway advocates in the Legislature already face an uphill battle to pass a revenue package that would generate $647 million in new highway funds over the next two years and $869 million the following two years.", "DOT's most recent estimates for adding two new transit lanes and making other fixes to the 520 bridge range from $710 million to $890 million.", "Winning Eastern Washington legislators' support for using the state's entire highway-building budget on a Seattle-area project would be difficult, to say the least.", "It isn't clear whether - or when - the 520 bridge will rise to the top of DOT's priority list.", "Unless it were funded with tolls, it would have to compete with other projects such as adding more high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes to the state's freeways, expanding the Tacoma Narrows Bridge and completing Highway 509 through SeaTac.", "Just finishing the high-priority HOV system would cost $1.5 billion.", "\"Highway 520 fits into the highly congested category, but

continue refueling warplanes belonging to the two Gulf nations, the dominant members of an Arab coalition fighting a brutal war in Yemen that has helped create the world's worst humanitarian crisis.",

She shanghais him to serve aboard the \"Queen Anne's Revenge\", the ship captained by her father Blackbeard (Ian McShane), who forces Sparrow to search for the Fountain of Youth. Sparrow fails in his attempt to take over the ship in a mutiny against Blackbeard and save the naive Angelica from her evil father.

reached the far side on the third orbit, Mission Control informed Collins that there was a problem with the temperature of the coolant. If it became too cold, parts of \"Columbia\" might freeze. Mission Control advised him to assume manual control and implement Environmental Control System Malfunction Procedure 17. Instead, Collins flicked the switch on the offending system from automatic to manual and back to automatic again, and carried on with normal housekeeping chores, while keeping an eye on the temperature. When \"Columbia\" came back around to the near side of the Moon again, he was able to report that the problem had been resolved. For the next couple of orbits, he described his time on the far side of the Moon as \"relaxing\". After Aldrin and Armstrong completed their EVA, Collins slept so he could be rested for the rendezvous. While the flight plan called for \"Eagle\" to meet up with \"Columbia\", Collins was prepared for certain contingencies in which he would fly \"Columbia\" down to meet \"Eagle\". After spending so much time with the CSM, Collins felt compelled to leave his mark on it, so during the second night following their return from the Moon, he went to the lower equipment bay of the CM and wrote:\n In a July 2009 interview with \"The Guardian\", Collins revealed that he was very worried about Armstrong and Aldrin's safety. He was concerned in the event of their deaths on the Moon. He would be forced to return to Earth alone. He would be the mission's sole survivor."}}

though, just a few hundred yards down the road, the pedlar collapsed with a stroke that paralysed him down the left side and left him unable to speak.", "He was taken to an ale house, from where a letter was dispatched to his son.", "By the time the son arrived, the pedlar's speech had recovered sufficiently for him to describe how he'd been bewitched.", "The son tracked Alizon down and brought her to his father, from whom she begged forgiveness.", "Unappeased, the son reported her to a local magistrate, Roger Nowell, \"a very religious honest gentleman\", who set about interrogating her.",

\u2013 known as Demdike \u2013 had initiated her in the malefic art.", "As Nowell pressed, increasingly lurid tales came out: of how the black dog had first appeared to Alizon and \"did with his mouth suck at her breast, a little below the paps, which did remain blue half a year\"; of milk turned sour and cows falling sick and children bewitched to death; of the enmity between Demdike and her deformed daughter Elizabeth and a neighbour called Anne Whittle (Chattox) and her daughter, all of whom were witches living in Pendle Forest.", "After further interviews, Nowell sent four of these women to await trial in Lancaster, leaving Elizabeth behind at her home, Malkin Tower.", "Malkin Tower seems not to have been a tower, just a simple cottage.", "But there, on Good Friday, emboldened by drink and a feast of roast lamb (the sheep having been stolen from a local farmer), Elizabeth and her friends and neighbours conceived a plan of travelling the 40-odd miles to Lancaster, blowing up the jail, and freeing the Pendle Four.", "It's improbable they'd ever have acted on the plan, but Nowell \u2013 hearing word of it \u2013 was taking no chances, and 15 more men and women were charged

adult Jennet Device was herself accused of being a witch on the say-so of a child.", "(She and her companions were eventually acquitted.)", "Many more witches were put to death before the law against witchcraft in England was finally repealed in 1736.", "The Lancaster case remains the most notorious, however, in part because of the number of those involved (it was rare for so many witches to be tried at once), and partly because the clerk of the court, Thomas Potts, published a detailed account of the proceedings, The Wonderfull Discoverie of Witches in the Countie of Lancaster, which gives a fascinating insight into the legal processes and socio-religious attitudes of the day.", "The Pendle witches don't conform to modern stereotypes.", "Spells are cast, clay images pricked with pins,

Addison confessed himself divided on the subject: \"I believe, in general, that there is such a thing as witchcraft, but can give no credit to any particular instance of it.\"", "Romanticism and the Gothic allowed a resurgence of witches, along with elves, fairies, goblins and ghosts.", "Stories about them might defy reason but, said Scott, made better reading when left mysterious: \"The professed explanation of a tale, where appearances or incidents of a supernatural character are referred to natural causes, has often, in the winding up of a story, a degree of improbability almost

victims were male), and that many of the accusations against women were made by members of their own sex.", "One popular new age myth is that witches were beneficent healers and midwives persecuted by the establishment \u2013 white witches not black.", "It's certainly tempting to recruit witches as symbols of paganism, nature worship, herbal remedies, earth-wisdom and ecological right-mindedness,

offering to buy them; more likely, being poor, she was begging.", "Whichever, the pedlar refused to undo his pack for her and she cursed him.", "The two parted company and continued on their way.", "Immediately afterwards, though, just a few hundred yards down the road, the pedlar collapsed with a stroke that paralysed him down the left side and left him unable to speak.", "He was taken to an ale house, from where a letter was dispatched to his son.", "By the time the son arrived, the pedlar's speech had recovered sufficiently for him to describe how he'd been bewitched.", "The son tracked Alizon down and brought her to his father, from whom she begged forgiveness.", "Unappeased, the son reported her to a local magistrate, Roger Nowell, \"a very religious honest gentleman\", who set about interrogating her.", "At this point the story became stranger.", "Alizon not only admitted having bewitched the pedlar with the help of a black dog (which had offered to lame him), she also recalled how her grandmother \u2013 known as Demdike \u2013 had initiated her in the malefic art.", "As Nowell pressed, increasingly lurid tales came out: of how the black dog had first appeared to Alizon and \"did with his mouth suck at her breast, a little below the paps, which did remain blue half a year\"; of milk turned sour and cows falling sick and children bewitched to death; of the enmity between Demdike and her deformed daughter Elizabeth and a neighbour called Anne Whittle (Chattox) and her daughter, all of whom were witches living in Pendle Forest.", "After further interviews, Nowell sent four of these women to await trial in Lancaster, leaving Elizabeth behind at her home, Malkin Tower.", "Malkin Tower seems not to have been a tower, just a simple cottage.", "But there, on Good Friday, emboldened by drink and a feast of roast lamb (the sheep having been stolen from a local farmer), Elizabeth and her friends and neighbours conceived a plan of travelling the 40-odd miles to Lancaster, blowing up the jail, and freeing the Pendle Four.", "It's improbable they'd ever have acted on the plan, but Nowell \u2013 hearing word of it \u2013 was taking no chances, and 15 more men and women were charged and sent for trial", "The trials took place over two days, Tuesday 18 August and Wednesday 19 August 1612, with the jury asked to consider a variety of offences, including murder and cannibalism.", "Crucial to the proceedings was the testimony of nine-year-old Jennet Device, whose mother Elizabeth, \"outrageously cursing \u2026 against the child in such a fearefull manner\", had to be taken away before the evidence could be heard.", "Standing on a table in front of the court, Jennet testified against her mother, brother and grandmother, along with others who had gathered at Malkin Tower.", "Whereas the judge discounted the evidence of an older child witness against three other alleged witches, Jennet's modesty and innocence were taken to guarantee her reliability.", "The court was impressed.", "As a result, 10 of the accused were found guilty and sentenced to death; they were hanged next day on the moor above Lancaster.", "Demdike had already died during her four months in prison.", "\"Although it pleased God out of his Mercie to spare you at this time,\" Justice Bromley told those acquitted, \"yet without question there are those amongst you that are as deep in this Action as any of them that are condemned to die.\"", "Many similar witch trials took place throughout Europe and America both before and after 1612, including a second case in Pendle in 1634, when the adult Jennet Device was herself accused of being a witch on the say-so of a child.", "(She and her companions were eventually acquitted.)", "Many more witches were put to death before the law against witchcraft in England was finally repealed in 1736.", "The Lancaster case remains the most notorious, however, in part because of the number of those involved (it was rare for so many witches to be tried at once), and partly because the clerk of the court, Thomas Potts, published a detailed account of the proceedings, The Wonderfull Discoverie of Witches in the Countie of Lancaster, which gives a fascinating insight into the legal processes and socio-religious attitudes of the day.", "The Pendle witches don't conform to modern stereotypes.", "Spells are cast, clay images pricked with pins, and supernumerary nipples or warts (the mark of the devil) diligently searched for.", "But there are no broomsticks, no steaming cauldrons, no pointed hats, no witches' sabbaths, no black masses.", "Satan has a role to play but he appears in the guise of a dog or hare, not as a devil with horns.", "And there's nothing especially spine-chilling about the motives for witchcraft.", "It happens when someone behaves meanly or intemperately and has a curse put on them in return.", "Grudges, superstition, a belief in charms and otherworldly spirits: all this seems perfectly familiar.", "The witches may look ugly but they're also homely \u2013 the dysfunctional neighbours across the way.", "The events of 1612 are now an established part of English folklore, and a large tourist industry flourishes around them.", "When I was growing up on the Lancashire-Yorkshire border, with Pendle Hill visible in the distance, talk of witches was commonplace; every local village seemed to have one \u2013 or rather, every village had an old woman whose behaviour and appearance struck fear into the hearts of children.", "Even the methods of punishment seemed close in time.", "Our village still had a wooden stocks, and it was easy to imagine witches being placed in them.", "Sorcery and spookiness weren't reserved for Halloween.", "Potts's account of the Pendle witches may have been the first book on the subject, but other less legalistic treatments soon followed, including plays, novels and revisionist histories.", "The Late Lancashire Witches, by Thomas Heywood and Richard Brome, was performed in 1634 (at the time of the second Pendle witch-craze), and later adapted by Thomas Shadwell.", "William Harrison Ainsworth's novel The Lancashire Witches was a huge success in its day (1848) and prompted comparisons with Dickens and Walter Scott.", "Robert Neill's Mist Over Pendle (1951) is the best known of the author's many historical novels.", "Now the 400th anniversary has brought a spate of new work about the Pendle witches.", "Simon Armitage got in first, with a television documentary that included animation as well as scholarly interviews.", "And in both Pendle and Lancaster there's a year-long festival, with art installations, exhibitions, lectures, guided walks, two plays \u2013 Sabbat by Richard Shannon and Devilish Practices by Richard MacSween \u2013 a sculpture trail, a folklore camp and a specially commissioned poem by Carol Ann Duffy carved into stones by the textual artist Stephen Raw and placed along the 48-mile route from Pendle to Lancaster.", "There's even a witch-themed flower show.", "There are also two new novellas on the subject, by Jeanette Winterson and Livi Michael.", "Winterson's, The Daylight Gate, takes its title from the dialect term for dusk: it's when night-time horror begins, and that's appropriate given Winterson's publishers, Hammer, which in partnership with Arrow Books is tapping the genre made famous by its film studio.", "Livi Michael's Malkin Child, narrated by nine-year-old Jennet Device, is aimed at younger readers looking for a witch story that isn't Harry Potter fantasy but grounded in fact.", "Her Jennet is slangy, unsensational and determined, above all, to set the record straight.", "\"Everyone's got a story, and if they don't tell it, then other people'll tell it for them,\" she says.", "\"That's why I'm telling it now.\"", "Stories about witches have been told since the beginning of time.", "In classical literature, they're either wily seductresses (such as Circe in the Odyssey) or malicious hags (such as Dipsas, who deprives Ovid of his lover in the Amores).", "On the Elizabethan and Jacobean stage \u2013 with John Lyly's Endymion, Ben Jonson's The Masque of Queens, Thomas Middleton's The Witch, and Dekker, Ford and Rowley's The Witch of Edmonton \u2013 they became more bloodthirsty (\"I had a dagger; what did I with that? / Killed an infant to have his fat\").", "The three weird sisters in Macbeth are Shakespeare's most celebrated contribution to the genre (\"What are these / So withered and so wild in their attire / That look not like the inhabitants of earth / And yet are on't?\"), but with her \"mischiefs manifold, and sorceries terrible\", Sycorax in The Tempest runs them close (though dead, her spirit lives on in the \"hag-seed\" Caliban).", "Othello is also charged with witchcraft: how else could a black man have successfully wooed Desdemona?", "Dr Johnson defended Shakespeare's use of the supernatural from the charge of implausibility on the grounds that, \"The reality of witchcraft \u2026 has in all ages and countries been credited by the common people, and in most by the learned.\"", "In the age of Enlightenment, superstition was waning, though Joseph Addison confessed himself divided on the subject: \"I believe, in general, that there is such a thing as witchcraft, but can give no credit to any particular instance of it.\"", "Romanticism and the Gothic allowed a resurgence of witches, along with elves, fairies, goblins and ghosts.", "Stories about them might defy reason but, said Scott, made better reading when left mysterious: \"The professed explanation of a tale, where appearances or incidents of a supernatural character are referred to natural causes, has often, in the winding up of a story, a degree of improbability almost equal to an absolute goblin narrative.\"", "Witches might have been expected to die out in a secular, scientific age.", "But ever since Dorothy took on the Wicked Witch of the West in The Wizard of Oz, they've multiplied.", "From Roald Dahl and Mary Norton to Celia Rees, children's books abound in them \u2013 and exult in their destruction (\"And through the town the joyous news went running / The joyous news that the wicked old witch was finally done in\").", "In films and television series, from the 1960s sitcom Bewitched to Sabrina the Teenage Witch, the aim is laughter rather than shivers down the spine.", "In the Harry Potter books and the Vampire Diaries series, the supernatural is the norm.", "Cher, Susan Sarandon and Michelle Pfeiffer in the 1987 film of John Updike's", "The Witches of Eastwick.", "Photograph: Allstar/Cinetext/Warnew Bros", "Two major 20th-century authors found the witch-craze in Salem in 1692 \u2013 which had parallels with that in Pendle 80 years earlier \u2013 indispensable when making sense of America in the 1950s and 60s.", "To Arthur Miller, the House Un-American Activities Committee and the Salem witch trials served the same ritualistic purpose, requiring \"that the accused make public confession, damn his confederates as well as his Devil master, and guarantee his new allegiance by breaking disgusting old vows\".", "When The Crucible opened in 1952, during the heyday of McCarthyism, the response of the New York audience was predictably hostile: there never were witches but there are communists, was the common objection.", "Two years on, with paranoia abating, the play was better received.", "From 60s anti-war protesters to the Manson murders, recent history was also on John Updike's mind when he wrote The Witches of Eastwick.", "His coven of divorcees \u2013 Alexandra, Sukie and Jane \u2013 wreak havoc in the local community, making feathers, dead wasps and bits of eggshell appear from the mouths of victims, and (thanks to the spells they cast and the pins they stick in Alexandra's dolls or \"bubbies\") subjecting their worst enemies to grisly ends.", "\"Wickedness was like food,\" they found, \"once you got started it was hard to stop.\"", "The main power the trio revel in is sexual, and Updike has his usual fun with that.", "But he put in some serious research for the book, drawing on works of history (Michelet, Norman Cohn, Margaret Murray) and novels including Sylvia Townsend Warner's Lolly Willowes.", "The latter \u2013 her first novel, published in 1926 \u2013 is also a novel for its time.", "Written in the wake of the suffragette movement and the enfranchisement of women, it reinterprets witches as proto-feminists whose only cult is a benign one, that of self-discovery.", "Suffocated by middle-class life in London, the spinster heroine takes off to the countryside and there, in a village called Great Mop, finds herself becoming a witch \u2013 not, as she explains to Satan (who appears as a gamekeeper and gardener), in order to plague people or do harm, but \"to have a life of one's own, not an existence doled out to you by others \u2026", "That's why we become witches: to show our scorn of pretending life's a safe business, to satisfy our passion for adventure.\"", "The last witch-hanging in England was in 1685 but witchcraft goes on living, it seems.", "Certainly the issues surrounding the trial of the Pendle witches resonate to this day.", "The use of child witnesses is as contentious now as it was then.", "Rushed proceedings resulting in harsh sentences were a feature of last August's riots as well as of August 1612.", "And confessions continue to be extracted from innocent parties.", "\"Loath they are to confess without torture, which witnessed their guiltiness,\" wrote King James in Daemonologie, and many security forces around the world today operate by the same principle.", "Once witches were ducked in ponds and rivers; now there's waterboarding.", "The Pendle witch story also appeals to writers because it lends itself to different readings.", "Take young Jennet Device.", "Livi Michael shows her being conned into betraying those she loves.", "\"Wouldn't you like to save your family?\" Nowell asks her, and she submits to his coaxing and coaching, not realising what he's up to until it's too late.", "By contrast, the nine-year-old in The Daylight Gate \u2013 Winterson's Jennet \u2013 fully understands the consequences of her actions:", "Jennet looked at them.", "Her brother who had sold her.", "Her mother who had neglected her.", "Her sisters who had ignored her.", "Chattox who frightened her.", "Mouldheels who stank.", "She named them one by one and condemned them one by one.", "Much of Winterson's book focuses on a protagonist even more intriguing than Jennet: Alice Nutter, one of those hanged.", "\"She was a rich woman; had a great estate, and children of good hope,\" Potts's account of the trial records, making a distinction between witches who live \"in great miserie and povertie\" and those like Alice who, \"though rich, yet burne in a desperate desire of Revenge\".", "Why would a woman of means associate with beggars?", "Was she the victim of a plot?", "Winterson's story builds a new life for Alice that involves an earlier career in London, friendship with the famous magician John Dee and a passionate love affair with Elizabeth Southern, aka (in later life) Demdike.", "There's even a walk-on part for Shakespeare, who sits with Alice watching a performance of The Tempest at Hoghton Tower, near Preston.", "Winterson tackles the issue of Catholicism, too, as anyone telling this story must.", "Anti-Catholicism was rife at the time, all the more so after the gunpowder plot of 1605, and Lancashire was regarded as a hotbed of the \"old\" religion.", "To those of a Calvinist persuasion there was little to choose between Catholic prayers and magic spells or incantations.", "\"Witchery popery popery witchery.", "What is the difference?\" as Winterson's novel has it.", "Or to put it another way,", "Catholics = witches = deviants = enemies of the state.", "The wild talk of blowing up Lancaster jail sealed the fate of those on trial in 1612.", "A group of impoverished labourers and elderly widows were presented as dangerous conspirators in the tradition of Guy Fawkes.", "The previous year had seen the publication of the King James Bible, in which the religious justification for executing witches was clearly stated: \"Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft\" (I Samuel 15:23) and \"Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live\" (Exodus 22:18).", "James himself had helped induce anti-witch hysteria while king of Scotland: convinced that a group of witches in North Berwick had plotted to murder him and his new queen, he ordered an investigation and mass arrests.", "His ideas were set out in his book Daemonologie, and enshrined in the 1604 Witchcraft Act, one of the first pieces of legislation passed under his reign in England.", "Later James became more sceptical about the prevalence of witches but his thinking influenced magistrates.", "Severe sentences had the king's blessing.", "They also did right by God: \"The giving up witchcraft is, in effect, giving up the Bible,\" John Wesley said.", "The persecution of witches also offers insights into misogyny, as Caryl Churchill showed in her 1970s play Vinegar Tom.", "\"More women in a far different proportion prove witches than men, by a hundred to one,\" ran a treatise of 1616, and explained why:", "First, women are by nature credulous, wanting experience, and therefore more easily deceived.", "Secondly, they harbour in their breast a curious and inquisitive desire to know such things as be not fitting and convenient \u2026", "Thirdly, their complexion is softer, and from hence more easily receive the impressions offered by the Devil", "Fourthly, in them is a greater facility to fall, and therefore the Devil at the first took that advantage, and set upon Eve in Adam's absence \u2026", "Fifthly, this sex, when it conceiveth wrath or hatred against any, is unplacable, possessed with insatiable desire of revenge, and transported with appetite to right (as they think) the wrongs offered unto them...", "Sixthly, they are of a slippery tongue, and full of words: and therefore if they know any such wicked practices, are not able to hold them, but communicate the same with their husbands, children, consorts, and inward acquaintance.", "Some women writers have retaliated against such prejudice by laying claim to sorcery as a form of empowerment \u2013 witches and proud of it.", "\"I have gone out, a possessed witch / haunting the black air,\" Anne Sexton wrote, and Sylvia Plath imagined herself as a witch exulting when burnt at the stake: \"My ankles brighten.", "Brightness ascends my thighs.", "/ I am lost, I am lost, in the robes of all this light.\"", "This kind of hag-ography exists not only in Wicca circles but in academe (Mary Daly: \"Our foresisters were the Great Hags whom the institutionally powerful but privately impotent patriarchs found too threatening for coexistence\"), with the female body seen as a site of atrocity and with witch-burnings equated to the Holocaust.", "The complication is that men were also hanged for witchcraft (two of the 1612 victims were male), and that many of the accusations against women were made by members of their own sex.", "One popular new age myth is that witches were beneficent healers and midwives persecuted by the establishment \u2013 white witches not black.", "It's certainly tempting to recruit witches as symbols of paganism, nature worship, herbal remedies, earth-wisdom and ecological right-mindedness, if only to confound those who see them as purveyors of madness or Satanic child abuse.", "There have even been petitions for those convicted under anti-witchcraft legislation to be retrospectively pardoned.", "But no evidence exists to suggest that the Pendle witches were healers and midwives.", "On the contrary, they convinced themselves that they possessed malign powers.", "Demdike described how she and her followers used clay images to afflict their enemies:", "When they would have them to be ill in any one place more than another, then take a thorn or pin and prick it in that part of the picture you would so have to be ill; and when you would have any part of the body to consume away, then take that part of the picture, and burn it.", "And when they would have the whole body to consume away, then take the remnant of the said picture and burn it: and so thereupon by that means, the body shall die.", "It's sad and desperate stuff: that a marginalised group could delude itself it possessed such powers is a sign, more than anything, of powerlessness.", "But even the best minds of the age were unforgiving.", "\"Witches think sometimes that they kill when they do not,\" wrote John Donne in his sermons, \"and are therefore as culpable as if they did.\"", "Hobbes said the same: \"I think not that their witchcraft is any real power; but yet that they are justly punished, for the false belief they have that they can do such mischief.\"", "In many parts of the world, people still believe in witchcraft and its mischief.", "Evangelical churches in Africa offer exorcisms: \"Are you in bondage, affliction, oppressed or tormented by witches?", "Come to us for deliverance.\"", "The cure comes at a price, of course, but anyone who has experienced \"strange dreams, delay in marriage, miscarriage and barrenness, stagnancy in business, financial struggles, premature death in the family, sickness resisting medication and strange occurrences\" is said to be in need of deliverance \u2013 ie most of us.", "Even more insidious is the belief in child witches.", "In 2010 a 15-year-old French Congolese boy, Kristy Bamu, was tortured and murdered in London by his elder sister and her fianc\u00e9 because they believed him to be a witch.", "The Lancaster-based charity Stepping Stones Nigeria, which campaigns on behalf of children in the Niger delta, recently had a case on its own doorstep of a child being accused of witchcraft.", "Hannah Arendt's phrase \"the banality of evil\" sums up the

The next morning, Arthur suffered a cerebral hemorrhage and never regained consciousness; he died the following day, November 18, at the age of 57. On November 22, a private funeral was held at the Church of the Heavenly Rest in New York City, attended by President Cleveland and ex-President Hayes, among other notables. Arthur was buried with his family members and ancestors in the Albany Rural Cemetery in Menands, New York. He was laid beside his wife in a sarcophagus on a large corner of the plot. In 1889, a monument was placed on Arthur's burial plot by sculptor Ephraim Keyser of New York, consisting of a giant bronze female angel figure placing a bronze palm leaf on a granite sarcophagus. Arthur's post-presidency was the second shortest of all presidents who lived past their presidency. Arthur's post-presidency was shorter than James K. Polk's brief three-month retirement."}}

11.30 EDT", "Whitfield's Department of Health building facing the Cenotaph in Whitehall, London.", "It is under threat of demolition to make way for a temporary parliamentary debating chamber.", "Photograph: Marc Zakian/Alamy", "The architectural career of William Whitfield, who has died aged 98, ranged from the concrete assertiveness of new brutalism to a new Palladian mansion that won plaudits from traditionalists.", "The office he founded in 1961 and led as principal developed a design approach that brought together different ideas and styles, not as compromise, but synthesis.", "His extension to the Institute of Chartered Accountants in the City of London (1970) squeezed a tall concrete tower into a tight site and managed the joins to the baroque of John Belcher's 1892 original building with great finesse and wit.", "The hammered concrete and elegant modernist facades alongside older work won round many to the gutsy beauty of brutalism.", "Later came three schemes at cathedrals: a new chapter house for St Albans (1981), its beautiful structural brickwork giving more than a nod to Edwin Lutyens; an international study centre in the cathedral close at Canterbury, now Canterbury Cathedral Lodge (2000), setting Purbeck ragstone and stock brick alongside French limestone; and new buildings for the Mappa Mundi and chained library at Hereford (1996).", "Whitfield's sensitivity to context served him well at a time when, to the relief of many, it had become a prized architectural skill.", "Nevertheless, every kind of lay and ecclesiastical obstacle was encountered \u2013 from medieval burials unexpectedly discovered to outright opposition to anything newly built next to ancient cathedrals.", "Whitfield and his always small office overcame them, to widespread acclaim and admiration once the buildings were finished.", "He was the architect for the restoration of Hawksmoor's Christ Church Spitalfields for three decades from the early 1970s, surveyor of the fabric at St Paul's Cathedral (1985-90) and a trustee of the British Museum.", "In 1993 he was knighted.", "New offices for the Department of Health (1987) were built between New Scotland Yard (then being repurposed as offices for MPs), the Regency Richmond Terrace, which had lain empty for years while governments dithered about demolishing it, and a narrow frontage to Whitehall directly overlooking the Cenotaph.", "On this fearsomely awkward and sensitive site a design of skill and complexity was achieved.", "Richmond Terrace was refurbished by others, while Whitfield built against its rear substantial office accommodation that was layered and staggered so that every office had natural light.", "Fine cast concrete staircases and ceilings gave it gravitas internally and beautiful detailing and leadwork outside did the same.", "The stair towers were clad in red brick with stone dressings to pick up the \"streaky bacon\" facades of New Scotland Yard.", "Facing the Cenotaph, Whitfield designed a recessed entrance in stone and yellow brick with a composition of bay windows and turrets that evokes, but at no point directly copies, Tudor precedent.", "It is a building of great sophistication but the department left it in 2017, and a parliamentary committee is now considering demolishing it, to erect a temporary debating chamber.", "Skill and patience with clients, planners and public opinion served the Whitfield office well at the redevelopment of Paternoster Square (2003), immediately north of St Paul's.", "It was one of the great planning showdowns between traditionalists and modernists but was finally built to Whitfield's master plan.", "Some of the buildings were to his own design, while others were awarded to selected practitioners, so that it reads as a piece of urban fabric rather than a through-designed development.", "Paternoster Square has proved more popular with the public than with architectural opinion formers, and is wearing remarkably well.", "Born in Stockton-on-Tees, Co Durham, William spent his early years in Newcastle upon Tyne and considered himself a proud Northumbrian (and therefore, he once said, \"barely English\").", "He took the family name of his mother, Elsie Whitfield, when his father disappeared very early in his life, and was brought up in a household of formidable women of three generations from a coal-owning family whose business was taken over by the National Coal Board in 1946.", "The young William cycled huge distances around Northumberland and the Borders, drawing prolifically and beautifully, and the resulting love of castles and towers never left him.", "He was admitted to Newcastle School of Architecture (then part of the University of Durham) in 1935 at the age of 15 by special dispensation, on the basis of a portfolio of drawings, supported by a remarkable breadth of architectural knowledge.", "Whitfield had a facility for vividly visualising plan-forms in three dimensions.", "He later recalled that his \"rough sketch\" stage was an entirely cerebral process.", "Only after thinking through configurations would he start to draw.", "Graduating in 1941, he was qualified when the second world war call-up came, so exempt, and returned to take a planning degree under Tom Sharp immediately after the war.", "He first came to notice as the junior of a team of three who in 1954 published plans for a \"New Barbican\" in bombed areas of the City of London.", "Though unbuilt, these proposals, with towers of then record-breaking height, galvanised the City into a plan of its own, designed by others.", "It is not fanciful to see the New Barbican megastructures \u2013 with ambitious scale, high density, and a new sense of urban form \u2013 grinning through today's Barbican.", "Another unbuilt scheme came in 1960, when Whitfield won the competition for new government offices and a conference centre in Broad Sanctuary, directly opposite Westminster Abbey.", "Slender towers for lifts and stairs clustered around blocks of accommodation, the towers breaking up the bulk of the building by their vertical emphasis.", "Whitfield's facades had rectangular modules based on those found in both Westminster Abbey and the Palace of Westminster, a deft piece of contextualism before such a thing was commonplace.", "The fact that it was not realised was down to indecision and the proposals

brainstorm about \"Mars colonial transport architecture.\"", "He says these words as though most people could look through their Monday schedule and find something similar.", "There are many remarkable aspects to SpaceX: for instance, the way it has challenged accepted rocket manufacture by making rockets for a fraction of the cost; the way it has become the first private entity\u2014rather than a country\u2014to successfully launch spacecraft into orbit and then return; the way it went from an idea in Musk's head to a company that resupplies the International Space Station and that hopes to soon ferry astronauts back and forth.", "But the most remarkable fact about SpaceX is that\u2014right from the start, before the first rocket had lifted an inch off the ground\u2014it was explicitly intended as the means to another, far more grandiose and idealistic end: colonizing Mars.", "Musk has said that he feels this is imperative for two reasons.", "One is that it would be an inspiring adventure and we need such goals.", "The other is the long-\u00adterm survival of humankind.", "If a calamity, self\u00ad-made or otherwise, destroyed life on Earth, as long as a human colony was established elsewhere, the species could endure.", "In Musk's mind, becoming multi-\u00adplanetary is just good common sense, a prudent move that he has likened to backing up a computer: \"You back up your hard drive....", "Maybe we should back up life, too?\"", "SpaceX exists to further this quest on several fronts: to develop the reusable rocket technology that would be needed to ferry large numbers of people, and large amounts of cargo, to Mars; to earn money to finance this goal; and to work out exactly what it would take to get to and from Mars in the way that Musk envisions.", "If you didn't know what \"Mars colonial transport architecture\" was\u2014that's what it is.", "Musk and his colleagues aren't vaguely hypothesizing about what people might like to

it's got enough capability to get all the way back here by itself.", "It needs a helping hand out of Earth's gravity well.", "So, technically, it would be the BFR and the BFS.\"", "As in \"Big Fucking Spaceship.\"", "Musk coined these names himself.", "\"This is a very obtuse video-game reference,\" he tells me.", "\"In the original Doom, the gun that was like the crazy gun was the BFG 9000 or

much poop?\"", "I ask Musk how often he actually thinks about colonizing Mars.", "Every day?", "Every week?", "\"I do think about it a fair bit,\" he answers, explaining that part of his urgency is that we might not always have the technology to get there.", "Most of us instinctively assume that technology relentlessly marches forward, but there have been times before now in human history\u2014after the Egyptians built the Pyramids, for instance, or after the multiple advances of the Roman Empire\u2014when the civilizations that followed could no longer do what had been done before", "and", "perhaps there's a complacency and arrogance in assuming that this won't happen again.", "\"There's a window that could be opened for a long time or a short time where we have an opportunity to establish a self-sustaining base on Mars,\" he reasons, \"before something happens to drive the technology level on Earth below where it's possible.", "So does the base become self-sustaining before spaceships from Earth stop going?...", "I mean, I don't think we can discount the possibility of a third World War.", "You know, in 1912 they were proclaiming a new age of peace and prosperity, saying that it was a golden age, war was over.", "And then you had World War I followed by World War II followed by the Cold War.", "So I think we need to acknowledge that there's certainly a possibility of a third World War, and if that does occur it could be far worse than anything that's happened before.", "Let's say nuclear weapons are used.", "I mean, there could be a very powerful social movement that's anti-technology.", "There's also growth in religious extremism.", "Like, I mean, does ISIS grow\u2026?\"", "Ironically, Musk himself recently advocated the use of nuclear weapons, during an appearance this fall on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.", "One possible strategy for making Mars habitable over the long term is to \"terraform\" it\u2014manipulate its environment so, in the simplest terms, the planet warms up, ice turns into water, and plants can be introduced, which will convert the atmospheric carbon dioxide into oxygen, with the goal of creating a stable and breathable atmosphere.", "(Musk's favored line on this subject: \"It's a fixer-\u00adupper of a planet.\")", "He told Colbert that there are slower and faster ways to do this, and then he proposed a fast way: \"Drop thermonuclear weapons over the poles.\"", "Musk has since somewhat clarified this, explaining that his idea (currently impossible, as if that's ever bothered him) is to have a small repeatedly detonating fusion bomb at each pole.", "\"Not really nuclear weapons,\" he says.", "\"I think a lot of people don't realize that the sun is a giant fusion explosion.", "And we're only talking about duplicating that in small form on Mars, essentially having tiny pulsing suns.", "There would be no radiation or mushroom clouds or fallout or anything like that.\"", "Even so, it seems a little invasive to contemplate, given that unmanned NASA Mars missions are currently forbidden to even land near potential areas of liquid water, in case small bio-organisms from Earth contaminate Mars.", "Musk is a little dismissive of these concerns.", "\"As far as we can see now, there's no evidence of life on the surface of Mars at all\u2014the best case is really that there's subterranean microbial life.", "That's what we're talking about as, like, the most amount of life that would exist.\"", "But whether life exists on the planet or not, there seems to be a moral issue worth raising: Is Mars ours to mess with?", "To Musk, this is missing the point.", "\"There's certainly no moral issue if there's no life,\" he insists.", "\"I mean, in fact, it would be, I think, sort of immoral not to do it, if it meant preservation of life on Earth as we know it.\"", "Either way, when it comes to these big decisions about terraforming, he's also clear about how they should be made, and by whom: \"This would be up to the Martians.\"", "The Martians.", "By which he means\u2014and Musk can talk in a way that makes a thought like this sound not only sane, but sensible\u2014those of us who choose to become interplanetary pioneers.", "##### 2. Inventing Autopiloting Cars (by Thursday)", "Musk runs another multi-\u00adbillion-\u00addollar company with ambitions to revolutionize our life: Tesla, which hopes to achieve this by accelerating the adoption of the electric car.", "Typically, Musk begins and ends his week in Southern California; Tuesdays and Wednesdays, he's in Northern California at Tesla.", "But although on this day Musk is at SpaceX, taking whatever time he can to imagine Mars\u00ad-bound rocketry, this particular week is being dominated by Tesla.", "Three days from now, the latest Tesla car update will be released.", "Teslas are electric cars, but they are different from most other cars in a number of other ways\u2014one is that improvements can be uploaded remotely, in the same way as phones and laptops.", "Tesla owners are notified about an update, then advised to schedule and automatically download it overnight.", "Some updates are small, some are big.", "This new update (the tenth major one since the cars were launched) is as big as they come; it's what Tesla calls \"Autopilot.\"", "In Tesla's sedan\u2014the Model S, which I had test\u00ad-driven a week earlier\u2014you could already set the cruise control and the car would accelerate and decelerate according to the traffic it sensed all around it.", "But this update is more fundamental\u2014a huge step toward a self\u00ad-driving car.", "Beginning on Thursday, updated Tesla cars should be able to follow the lanes on a highway without driver steering.", "The car will also change lanes automatically\u2014all you have to do is tap the indicator and it will move over when it is safe.", "Oddly, Musk talks about these advances as though they're not even that big a deal.", "It might feel like the future to us, but to him it's as though this is an almost banal iteration of what people in his field know can be done quite easily already.", "(He quotes William Gibson's dictum: \"The future is already here, it's just unevenly distributed.\")", "But that's if the update works, of course.", "It is Monday evening, and from what Musk tells me, there's lots to be done before Thursday.", "\"The thing that's tricky,\" he explains, \"is that there are a lot of corner cases with steering.\"", "(A \"corner case\" is a technical engineering term denoting an extreme event that occurs outside normal operating bounds\u2014not specifically anything to do with cars turning corners.", "Dialogue with Elon Musk, even when he is talking to regular people, is littered with such terms: \"corner cases,\" \"forcing functions\"...", "There's only so much dumber that he's prepared to be.", "You either keep up or you don't.)", "A corner case, when it comes to a car steering itself, is clearly a problem.", "\"It's easy to get the steering to work 99 percent of the time,\" he explains.", "\"But 99 percent is not good enough.", "One percent of steering into a wall is not\u2026not good.", "And so you really need to get it to, you know, 99.99 percent of the time.", "And even then, when the system is losing confidence, it needs to inform the driver so the driver can take over with enough time before anything terrible happens.\"", "And that's still being worked on for Thursday?", "I ask.", "\"Well, there's some tweaks that are gonna occur before Thursday.", "There aren't any major issues, but there's some minor issues that would be good to take care of by Thursday.\"", "Two days later, when he holds a press conference to formally announce what is coming, he will err on the side of caution, in a very Elon Musk way: \"It should not hit pedestrians, hopefully.\"", "Tesla cars can autonomously switch lanes; Musk says that within five years, they'll drive themselves completely.", "\u00a9 2015 Bloomberg Finance", "Still, the fact is that we will soon be in a world that many people have no idea is so close at hand: where vehicles can essentially drive themselves.", "When I bring up something he'd mentioned recently, that cars would soon be able to park themselves in a garage at the end of the journey, he almost dismissively notes that this capability will be in Tesla's next update after this one.", "(Tesla cars will also be able to be remotely summoned at the beginning of a journey, as long as you're on private land.)", "\"It's pretty straightforward,\" he says.", "I point out that while that may be the case, technologically speaking, most people have no idea what's coming.", "\"True,\" he says.", "\"I think it will be quite an amazing thing for people to see.", "And I mean the reality is that autonomous systems will drive orders of magnitude better than people.", "In terms of accidents per mile, it'll be far lower.", "Technologically, I think it's about three years away for full autonomy.\"", "Musk also acknowledges that we could reach a point where \"society may choose to make it illegal to drive your own car\"\u2014a possibility that he recently floated in public, inciting a certain amount of kickback from the keenest car fanatics.", "(The kind of people, of course, who are likely to own Teslas.", "They may want to own the first cars that can drive themselves, but that doesn't mean they take kindly to being told they're not allowed to steer if they want.)", "Consequently, Musk is now careful to point out that this was an observation, not a development he supports.", "\"I want to be clear,\" he says, \"I'm not advocating taking the steering wheel away from anyone.\"", "The Tesla Model X.", "To Musk, the bigger picture is about a different paradigm shift\u2014the shift to electric cars, which is simply a given in Musk's mind, because it is by far the most energy-\u00adefficient option available, even when electricity is generated from fossil fuels.", "(If the electricity can be generated sustainably, he notes, then the advantages only increase.)", "And so once the historic disadvantages of electric cars (low range, slow and inconvenient charging, high cost) have been overcome, they become the obvious choice.", "His stated mission with Tesla is to accelerate the changeover so that it happens years earlier than it otherwise might; he has built the company up by introducing the high\u00ad-end Roadster sports car, then the Model S sedan, and most recently the new SUV Model X, but the core of this plan is the next\u00ad-generation Tesla, the Model 3, intended as a mass-\u00admarket car whose basic model will start at $35,000.", "\"It's difficult,\" he says, \"but I think we'll achieve it.\"", "After that?", "Most likely a new roadster, a smaller SUV, and a truck.", "\"I mean, these are very obvious moves,\" he says.", "The week after we meet, Tesla suffers a rare blip when Consumer Reports downgrades its previous ecstatic recommendation of the Model S after troubling reliability reports.", "(Musk pushed back on Twitter, claiming that these were mainly already\u00ad-solved problems with early production vehicles, and he accurately noted \"CR says 97% of owners expect their next car to be a Tesla.\")", "But it is with the Model 3 that Musk will either succeed or fail at his central Tesla mission.", "This has been the plan all along, incidentally.", "In August 2006, before the first Tesla car was finished, Musk published a blog post on Tesla's website, the end of which reads: So, in short, the master plan is: Build sports car.", "Use that money to build an affordable car.", "Use that money to build an even more affordable car....", "Don't tell anyone.", "Still, I say to him\u2014because sometimes within the realm of hi-tech new cars and the debates that surround it, this point often seems to be forgotten\u2014even now it is far from obvious that people in the wider world know or accept that a shift to electric vehicles is inevitable, whether coming slowly or quickly.", "Musk compares this quietly inevitable shift toward electric cars to the economy he encountered when he first came to Silicon Valley in the mid-1990s and started the Internet company Zip2.", "\"I remember in '95 trying to get venture funding for my first company, and most of the venture capitalists we met with in Silicon Valley had never used the Internet.", "Never, for anything.\"", "He laughs at the memory.", "\"Didn't know what it was.", "They'd heard of it, but they didn't know.", "Literally, if you said, 'Tell me something about the Internet,' they were like...nothing.", "They're like, 'Is it like AOL or CompuServe?'", "'No.'", "I was pretty amazed that they did not know about it.\"", "Another laugh.", "But then the culture shifted.", "\"There was quite a big change that occurred right at the end of '95 when Netscape went public.", "Venture capitalists then took note of that and said, 'Well, if this browser company can have a high market cap, then probably other things can.", "too.'", "So the second time my brother and I tried to find venture funding, in early '96, it was a complete change.", "Everyone we met with was interested.\"", "Zip2, which pioneered basic online city guides for newspapers, brought Musk his first fortune.", "Elon Musk has told his origin story many times.", "He grew up in South Africa, a bookish child nastily bullied at school, and he left for Canada at 17 (his mother is Canadian), his eye set on the U.S.A., the country of possibility he had read about in comics growing up.", "In college, he identified three areas that he thought would most affect the future of humanity: the Internet, sustainable energy, and the extension of human life beyond Earth.", "His first two companies involved the Internet: Zip2 made him rich, and PayPal made him much richer.", "Then he started a rocket company, SpaceX, from scratch and became involved in an electric-car company, Tesla.", "In both of these companies, he is not just CEO but leads product development himself.", "He makes a point of saying to me, as he has to many others, \"People don't realize that most of my time is spent in engineering,\" and he has often talked as though this is his fundamental skill, the thing he can do better than anyone else.", "Nevertheless, the mystery of Elon Musk and his incredible successes can't be explained quite so simply.", "For while it is very true that he has led these two companies, SpaceX and Tesla, from nowhere to multi-billion-dollar industries by making things, it's also important to remember that he made those first two fortunes in companies that never made anything physical at all.", "So whatever his secret sauce, it's a little more complicated than that.", "The visionary technological genius occupies a strange place in the modern cultural psyche, as shown by the current battles in Steve Jobs's afterlife over who he was and what he did, and how those two things are related.", "Right now, I can only think of two living people who seem close to occupying a similar role in the public imagination: Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk.", "When I first introduce this subject by mentioning the new Danny Boyle movie about Jobs, Musk throws me off, not by the fact that he hasn't seen it\u2014it's only been out for three days when we speak, though

to himself.", "\"I sort of shot my mouth off in the interview,\" he recalls.", "He would explain at the event that his idea was also inspired by his frustration at California's continually-delayed high-speed train link between San Francisco and Los Angeles, which he saw as disappointingly slow and crazily expensive.", "\"I said,\" he remembers, \" 'I think I've come up with a better way to get from one place to another.' \"", "This, in part, is what he explained.", "Musk: It would be for a fifth mode of transport.", "So right now we've got planes, trains, automobiles, and boats for getting

investing millions in Hyperloop prototypes.", "Musk hasn't endorsed any particular endeavor, but for his own part he's building a mile-long Hyperloop test track here in Los Angeles so that students can try out designs and compete to see whose prototype will go faster.", "And while there is a long way to go before the Hyperloop proves itself, no one has yet come up with a fundamental flaw that undermines his designs or his reasoning.", "You must be aware that other people don't think up new modes of transport in their spare time?", "\"Um, well, in this case it was just sort of sheer desperation,\" he replies.", "\"Of, like, I'd better think of something, otherwise I'm gonna have to tell people it doesn't work.\"", "Well, yes, but lots of other people have been desperate before

remarkable aspects to SpaceX: for instance, the way it has challenged accepted rocket manufacture by making rockets for a fraction of the cost; the way it has become the first private entity\u2014rather than a country\u2014to successfully launch spacecraft into orbit and then return; the way it went from an idea in Musk's head to a company that resupplies the International Space Station and that hopes to soon ferry astronauts back and forth.", "But the most remarkable fact about SpaceX is that\u2014right from the start, before the first rocket had lifted an inch off the ground\u2014it was explicitly intended as the means to another, far more grandiose and idealistic end: colonizing Mars.", "Musk has said that he feels this is imperative for two reasons.", "One is that it would be an inspiring adventure and we need such goals.", "The other is the long-\u00adterm survival of humankind.", "If a calamity, self\u00ad-made or otherwise, destroyed life on Earth, as

be needed to ferry large numbers of people, and large amounts of cargo, to Mars; to earn money to finance this goal; and to work out exactly what it would take to get to and from Mars in the way that

environment so, in the simplest terms, the planet warms up, ice turns into water, and plants can be introduced, which will convert the atmospheric carbon dioxide into oxygen, with the goal of creating a stable and breathable atmosphere.", "(Musk's favored line on this subject: \"It's a fixer-\u00adupper of a planet.\")", "He told Colbert that there are slower and faster ways to do this, and then he proposed a fast way: \"Drop thermonuclear weapons over the poles.\"", "Musk has since somewhat clarified this, explaining that his idea (currently impossible, as if that's ever bothered him) is to have a small repeatedly detonating fusion bomb at each pole.", "\"Not really nuclear weapons,\" he says.", "\"I think a lot of people don't realize that the sun is a giant fusion explosion.", "And

subterranean microbial life.", "That's what we're talking about as, like, the most amount of life that would exist.\"", "But whether life exists on the planet or not, there seems to be a moral issue worth raising: Is Mars ours to mess with?", "To Musk, this is missing the point.", "\"There's certainly no moral issue if there's no life,\" he insists.", "\"I mean, in fact, it would be, I think, sort of immoral not to do it, if it meant preservation of life on Earth as we know it.\"", "Either way, when it comes to these big decisions about terraforming, he's also clear about how they should be made, and by whom: \"This would be up to the Martians.\"", "The Martians.", "By which he means\u2014and Musk can talk in a way that makes a thought like this sound not only sane, but

indicator and it will move over when it is safe.", "Oddly, Musk talks about these advances as though they're not even that big a deal.", "It might feel like the future to us, but to him it's as though this is an almost banal iteration of what people in his field know can be done quite easily already.", "(He quotes William Gibson's dictum: \"The future is already here, it's just unevenly distributed.\")", "But that's if the update works, of course.", "It is Monday evening, and from what Musk tells me, there's lots to be done before Thursday.", "\"The thing that's tricky,\" he

to get it to, you know, 99.99 percent of the time.", "And even then, when the system is losing confidence, it needs to inform the driver so the driver can take over with enough time before anything terrible happens.\"", "And that's still being worked on for Thursday?", "I ask.", "\"Well, there's some tweaks that are gonna occur before Thursday.", "There aren't any major issues, but there's some

this one.", "(Tesla cars will also be able to be remotely summoned at the beginning of a journey, as long as you're on private land.)", "\"It's pretty straightforward,\" he says.", "I point out that while that may be the case, technologically speaking, most people have no idea what's coming.", "\"True,\" he says.", "\"I think it will be quite an amazing thing for people to see.", "And I mean the reality is that autonomous systems will drive orders of magnitude better than people.", "In terms of accidents per mile, it'll be far lower.", "Technologically, I think it's about three years away for full autonomy.\"", "Musk also acknowledges that we could reach a point where \"society may choose to make it illegal to drive your own car\"\u2014a possibility that he recently floated in public,

fuels.", "(If the electricity can be generated sustainably, he notes, then the advantages only increase.)", "And so once the historic disadvantages of electric cars (low range, slow and inconvenient charging, high cost) have been overcome, they become the obvious choice.", "His stated mission with Tesla is to accelerate the changeover so that it happens years earlier than it otherwise might; he has built the company up by introducing the high\u00ad-end Roadster sports car, then the Model S sedan, and most recently the new SUV Model X, but the core of this plan is the next\u00ad-generation

recommendation of the Model S after troubling reliability reports.", "(Musk pushed back on Twitter, claiming that these were mainly already\u00ad-solved problems with early production vehicles, and he

realm of hi-tech new cars and the debates that surround it, this point often seems to be forgotten\u2014even now it is far from obvious that people in the wider world know or accept that a shift to electric vehicles is inevitable, whether coming slowly or quickly.", "Musk compares this quietly inevitable shift toward electric cars to the economy he encountered when he first came to Silicon

to himself.", "\"I sort of shot my mouth off in the interview,\" he recalls.", "He would explain at the event that his idea was also inspired by his frustration at California's continually-delayed high-speed train link between San Francisco and Los Angeles, which he saw as disappointingly slow and crazily expensive.", "\"I said,\" he remembers, \" 'I think I've come up with a better way to get from one place to another.' \"", "This, in part, is what he explained.", "Musk: It would be for a fifth mode of transport.", "So right now we've got planes, trains, automobiles, and boats for getting

very narrowly escaped death as a company, both for SpaceX and Tesla.\"", "He has told the full story over and over\u2014how SpaceX had failed with its first three rocket launches and Tesla was struggling to make vehicles quickly or economically enough, and how, when the wider market crash then came, both companies were only kept going by Musk committing the remainder of his $180 million fortune from PayPal, to the point where he was reduced to borrowing money off friends for living expenses.", "And how, at the last minute, doom was averted: The fourth SpaceX launch reached orbit, and the company was awarded a $1.6 billion NASA contract; other Tesla investors agreed to match Musk's final $20 million investment and saw them through the most vulnerable moments.", "Even now, Musk gets uncharacteristically emotional talking about it.", "There's a very recent interview shot at the Tesla factory for Norwegian TV where Musk has to ask to halt the filming when they are discussing this period because he is tearing up.", "He seems surprised when I mention this.", "\"Well, I mean, I certainly have feelings!\"", "SpaceX received its biggest setback since those days earlier this year when, after eighteen consecutive successful launches, a Falcon 9 rocket on a resupply mission for the International Space Station exploded just over two minutes into its flight (a mishap they now believe was caused by the failure of a small metal strut supplied by a contractor).", "\"It was the first time that we'd had a failure in seven years, so most of the people at SpaceX were not around when we had the failures in the early days.", "Because we only were about 500 people or so, and now we're five thousand, so 90 percent of the people had only ever seen success.\"", "I ask him if there's something he's had to do to get people in a mindset where they're more scared of failure, but his answer is basically that a rocket blowing up\u2014or, to use the actual jargon, undergoing a \"rapid unscheduled disassembly,\" or RUD\u2014should be enough to do the trick.", "\"I think it's now clear to them,\" he says.", "\"It's pretty obvious this is what happens if you don't do things right.\"", "Toward the end of our conversation, Musk starts getting periodic reminders, ever more insistently, that he is late to this meeting to review the latest space-\u00adsuit prototype.", "No one outside of a few select insiders has seen the suit, I am told, but eventually he invites me to come take a look, as long as I don't describe the suit itself.", "Earlier in the day, I'd been taken on a tour of the SpaceX factory, within which there is an area that approved guests are allowed to tour, where the rockets, capsules, and engines are fabricated.", "(First, though, you walk past the Iron Man suit, which is here presumably because another key part of Musk lore is that Jon Favreau and Robert Downey, Jr., used aspects of Musk as the basis for the movie version of Tony Stark; Musk also has a cameo in the second film, trying to buttonhole Stark about his real-life electric-plane idea at a party.)", "There's nothing boring about the inside of a rocket factory\u2014this is where

She is inspired by New York neighborhoods and advertising."}}

Due to the complexity of the issues, interpretation is not word for word. Instead, interpreters have to convey the political meaning of a speech, regardless of their own views. This requires detailed understanding of the politics and terms of the Parliament, involving a great deal of preparation beforehand (e.g. reading the documents in question).

Due to the large number of languages, some being minor ones, since 1995 interpreting is sometimes done the opposite way, out of an interpreter's native tongue (the \"retour\" system). In addition, a speech in a minor language may be interpreted through a third language for lack of interpreters (\"relay\" interpreting)\u00a0\u2013  for example, when interpreting out of Estonian into Maltese. Due to the complexity of the issues, interpretation is not word for word. Instead, interpreters have to convey the political meaning of a speech, regardless of their own views. This requires detailed understanding of the politics and terms of the Parliament, involving a great deal of preparation beforehand (e.g. reading the documents in question). Difficulty can often arise when MEPs use profanities, jokes and word play or speak too fast. While some see speaking their native language as an important part of their identity, and can speak more fluently in debates, interpretation and its cost has been criticised by some. A 2006 report by Alexander Stubb MEP highlighted that by only using English, French and German costs could be reduced from \u20ac118,000 per day to \u20ac8,900 per day."}}

He explained that \"going 20-plus weeks seeing who gets voted in as the winner, then trying to figure out the song and producer, it just felt like we can do a better job with that much attention and that many sets of ears and eyes paying attention to the show.\"\n Borchetta added that record producers had \"a lot of great songs that just haven't had the right opportunity\", such as Stephan Moccio, who supplied a song he had worked on whilst working on the soundtrack for \"Fifty Shades of Grey\". Bell Media president and former Universal Music Canada head Randy Lennox (who has previously worked with Borchetta) described the pace of the format, where producers are given 48 hours to work with the two candidate musicians to record their debut single, as being \"star-making machinery meets Kiefer Sutherland \"24\"\". The winners' songs receive additional production work in between the completion of episode production and their public release. \n Over 10,000 applications were received for the first season; Borchetta explained that Canada had a large pool of untapped musical talent because there were no \"opportunities\" to kickstart their careers (unlike the U.S., whose talent had, in his opinion,  been \"gone through over and over again\" by competing programs), and noted that there was a sense of pride over domestic artists. He emphasized that the series \"isn't about somebody that has never performed before getting a record deal; this is about an artist who's ready and just needs this big break. This is the big break.\" Bell Media's vertical integration is leveraged as an aspect of the series; the winning songs are featured on Bell Media Radio stations and the division's iHeartRadio service, and the series is also covered as part of other CTV programs. On February 22, 2018, Bell Media sold international rights to the format to Sony Pictures Television. The company began to sell the first season of the Canadian version."}}

powerhouse international satellite channels such as Star India and Sky Italia, and a host of U.S. regional sports outlets.", "The deal takes Murdoch out of much of the scripted television game and all of the film business, ending a Hollywood association that began more than three decades ago when Murdoch bought Twentieth Century Fox from industrialist Marvin Davis and crested as recently as 2014 when Fox led all studios by market share for the first time this century.", "Lachlan Murdoch, Rupert's son and the executive co-chair of 21st Century Fox, noted that \"while the merged business is

own.", "He sees troubled waters ahead and wants the best ship and crew to navigate them.\"", "For Iger, Thursday's deal amounts to another success after earlier efforts to buy Pixar, Marvel and Lucasfilm.", "But Fox will provide the greatest integration challenge yet, with many of the newly acquired company's divisions overlapping with Disney's existing operations.", "And greater scale, while valuable in negotiating traditional distributor deals with cable operators and movie theaters, is no guarantee of direct-to-consumer success.", "Wall Street was bullish on the announcement, sending Disney's stock up nearly three and Fox almost seven percent.", "Regulators and shareholders must still approve the Disney-Fox deal, but most analysts do not expect it to face problems.", "In a very different scenario, the Justice Department is currently suing AT&T to stop its acquisition of Time Warner, noting concerns about the marriage of a distributor and content provider.", "A few experts dissented, though, and said the sheer volume of creative assets could give regulators pause.", "\"The scrutiny could be very close and the new antitrust leadership is unpredictable at this point, as witnessed by Time Warner-ATT,\" said Carl Tobias, a professor at the University of Richmond law school.", "\"I expect DOJ and Congress will be most interested in what this combination will mean for consumers and whether it concentrates too much power in the new entity.\"", "Combined, the new Disney could boast as much as $75 billion in revenue, with nearly a third coming from Fox

predicted, will appeal his sanction, according to his agent, Don Yee, who said the NFL's ban \"is ridiculous and has no legitimate basis.\"", "The appeal will be heard by commissioner Roger Goodell or

says his lawyer, Dale Jefferson, \"a figure plucked out of thin air.\"", "By an extraordinary coincidence $850,000 was the same figure that someone had lent Sharon to buy her house.", "When she came up with the money, Rick Flowers says, Neil saw it as breaking the divorce agreement.", "At mediation, both sides had cited the $850,000 figure as the lowest price at which they'd sell it to an outside party, says Flowers.", "Sharon was hardly an outside party.", "Sharon saw the lawsuit as a direct attack on her efforts to buy the house, although Jefferson points out that under Texas law it cannot be taken from her if she loses the lawsuit.", "Meanwhile, there are plenty of theories as to where Sharon procured the money for the house.", "One person thought it came from an advance for a tell-all book.", "Another thought it must be from Gerald Tsai.", "When asked, Sharon will say only that she has to pay the money back.", "By this time, newspapers had started printing the embarrassing stories

"The mid-January evening that Ellison came to pick up the ball was one of those nights he was supposed to be in quarantine.", "Janelle hadn't seen him for weeks; the astronauts were kept isolated before missions to avoid getting sick.", "But there he was, jogging across the practice field, and suddenly the whole evening buzzed with the electric feeling of being part of something special as a kid -- literally, in this case, part of something far beyond your own small world.", "The players on the team presented Ellison with the ball, looking one last time at all their names and \"Good Luck, Shuttle Crew!\" written in careful strokes, knowing it was a way for each of them to be a part of the great human achievement of the time -- a way to touch the heavens.", "Janelle said goodbye to her dad and watched as he jogged back across the field with the ball in his hands, jumping, carefree, across a little ditch.", "\"I'll always remember this night,\" Janelle later wrote.", "\"I can still

Visitors Bureau was just beginning to promote tourism.", "As Ellison was growing up, the rhythm of the town rose and fell with the coffee season.", "The town's high school even operated on a \"coffee schedule,\" moving summer vacation to August through November so children could help harvest the coffee cherries.", "In those fields, lying on his back in the shade of the coffee trees, Ellison first wondered what was beyond the things he could see with the naked eye, what was even higher than the birds flew.", "In 1961, when Ellison was a freshman in high school, Alan Shepard became the first American in space.", "Ellison didn't get to see it as it happened; it would be decades before Hawaii got same-day television broadcasts.", "After graduating from high school in 1964, Ellison came to the mainland to study aerospace engineering at the University of Colorado, where he met Lorna.", "\"He didn't look like a nerd, but I wondered if he was one,\" she remembered.", "\"He was president of

moments of human history: Neil Armstrong leaving the first footprint on the moon.", "It was also Lorna's birthday, and as the couple toasted both events, Ellison couldn't take his eyes off the television replays.", "To no one in particular, he said simply, \"I'd like to take a shot at that.\"", "Ellison Onizuka's wife Lorna, daughters Janelle and Darien and mother Mitsue accompany him on a

viewing in January 1985.", "Eight-year-old Darien Onizuka stood on the launchpad at Kennedy Space Center and looked up -- way up -- at the 184-foot-tall space shuttle system spotlighted against the darkness.", "It was already poised skyward, ready to carry her dad into the cosmos.", "Later, she wrote in her diary that it looked so powerful, like a monster all lit up, and that we are very small.", "The next morning, Jan. 24, 1985, Ellison sat in Seat 3 on the flight deck aboard the space shuttle Discovery as countdown began.", "On the roof of the launch control tower, just over the edge of the designated buffer zone, the Onizuka girls squinted against the Florida sun as 7.8 million pounds of thrust reverberated through the air and right into their chests.", "Discovery rose higher and higher until it was just a dot, and they were the same.", "On that mission, Ellison became the first Asian-American, the first Japanese-American and the first Hawaiian in space.", "Even orbiting 212 miles above Earth, he brought along something that transported him back to his life as a boy in Hawaii: a bag of Kona coffee straight from his hometown.", "When Ellison returned, Lorna noticed he was quiet.", "She would find him sitting by the fire in a moment of reflection, brought back to earth only by the sound of the kids' happy chatter.", "As the girls ran off and the quiet settled in around him, a simple fact kept surfacing: He wanted to go back.", "Jan. 28, 1986, was cold in Cape Canaveral.", "Just before dawn, the temperature on the launchpad was 22 degrees -- far

"Classrooms around the country were watching live thanks to a special NASA broadcast feed.", "As the count progressed, the astronauts' families were brought up to the roof to watch the launch.", "Over on Launchpad 39B, Ellison was again in Seat 3 on the flight deck.", "In his locker -- along with a family picture with the governor of Hawaii, a lotus charm for his Buddhist faith, a football from his alma mater, the University of Colorado, and a pennant from his high school -- sat the soccer ball.", "The countdown approached zero, the solid rocket boosters ignited and somewhere in the right booster, a 0.280-inch-wide O-ring failed due to the cold.", "The failure allowed heated, pressurized propellants to leak out onto the external fuel tank, causing catastrophic structural failure.",

of the launch control tower, the families of the crew desperately searched the twin trails of smoke that twisted skyward for signs of the crew cabin.", "They were rushed back inside, purses and cameras left behind.", "Everyone was silent.", "The last thing Lorna remembers about that day is being brought into a conference room with the other families to be told the crew was lost.", "Upon hearing the news, she fainted, hitting the light switch as she slid down the wall.", "Everything went dark.", "\"At that very moment,\" Lorna says, \"all the lights went out because all the lights did

program.", "It was the first national tragedy broadcast live on television and the first in-flight loss of astronauts in NASA history.", "Then-President Ronald Reagan addressed the country and paid tribute to the seven crew members -- Francis Scobee, Michael Smith, Ronald McNair, Judith Resnik, Gregory Jarvis, Christa McAuliffe and Ellison Onizuka -- who \"slipped the surly bonds of earth to touch the face of God.\"", "There were memorial services, and the fate of future space travel was contemplated.", "The Onizukas' mail carrier delivered bundle after bundle of letters from around the world.", "The nightly news featured shots of the U.S. Coast Guard pulling pieces of wreckage from the Atlantic -- large, anonymous chunks of metal that didn't resemble the whole.", "In total, 14 tons of debris was recovered, the largest salvage operation in Coast Guard history.", "What didn't make the news was a small duffel bag that was plucked from the surface of the blue-black water, one of the few items recovered intact.", "The months wore on, and life began to take on a new semblance of normal for the Onizukas.", "Lorna put all the mail into the attic.", "Janelle's sophomore year at Clear Lake wound to a close.", "Then, with the investigation into the accident completed, NASA began to notify the families of any recovered personal effects.", "Lorna was told about the ball and was asked if she'd like it back.", "\"I wouldn't have wanted the ball to become a recovered artifact sitting in a locked vault somewhere, archived forever,\" Lorna says.", "\"If there was any speak left in these items, El would have wanted it to speak.\"", "What she remembers most about seeing the ball for the first time after the accident is the ink.", "So much had happened, so much pain had been felt since each player had held this ball steady and written her name.", "How could this blue ink still be so bright?", "Janelle cried.", "She cried the tears that make your face burn and your body ache.",

"She cried as she presented the ball back to Clear Lake High School, displaying it proudly during a ceremony that was supposed to have been led by her father.", "For the rest of Janelle's time at Clear Lake, the space shuttle program remained on hiatus.", "The ball found a home in a trophy case in the hallway opposite the main office, where thousands of students and their parents -- many a part of the NASA community in one way or another -- passed by it.", "They had vowed to continue the mission of the Challenger Seven, to keep the human spirit of exploration alive.", "But just as the Onizukas struggled to find their way without Ellison, NASA struggled to regain the confidence of the public.", "Both had no choice but to push forward.", "Lorna Onizuka gave the soccer ball back to Clear Lake High School after it was recovered from the Challenger wreckage.", "Mike Bollacke", "Clear Lake High School in 2016 wasn't all that different from what it was when Janelle walked its halls in 1986.", "There were updates to the building, new technology was on display and children replaced their parents as the student body -- but it was still the place where the astronauts' kids went to school.", "In the 30 years since the Onizukas lost Ellison, the soccer ball was dwarfed in its case by newer, bigger trophies as Clear Lake collected accomplishments worthy of display.", "The signatures, once so clear and vibrant, faded so badly that they were almost unreadable.", "Year by year, it settled deeper into the background of the life that bustled past it.", "That is until the Clear Lake High School principal, Karen Engle, got an email from a parent.", "He was leaving a booster club meeting and stopped to look at the ball, remembering it from so long ago.", "He figured it should have its own display case, and he offered to build it.", "Karen didn't believe him at first.", "She'd seen the Challenger explode.", "There was no way a soccer ball survived that -- and if it had, there was no way it had been sitting in a display case just outside her office.", "She walked out into the hallway and looked at it closely through the glass.", "There was no plaque or dedication, nothing explaining what it was or all that it had survived.", "Just a bunch of faded signatures.", "Maybe the parent was mistaken; maybe it was just an old championship ball.", "But as she looked closer, there in faded ink were the words that made her realize what she'd unknowingly walked by since her first day as principal: \"Good Luck, Shuttle Crew!\"", "A few days later, there was a basketball game at Clear Lake.", "There to see his twin daughters perform on the dance team was Col.

While some shallow-water recovery efforts continued, this was unconnected with the accident investigation; it aimed to recover debris for use in NASA's studies of the properties of materials used in spacecraft and launch vehicles. The recovery operation was able to pull 15 short tons (14\u00a0t) of debris from the ocean; this means that 55% of \"Challenger\", 5% of the crew cabin and 65% of the satellite cargo are still missing. Some of the missing debris continued to wash up on Florida shores for some years, such as on December 17, 1996, nearly 11 years after the incident, when two large pieces of the shuttle were found at Cocoa Beach. Under 18\u00a0U.S.C.\u00a0\u00a7\u00a0641 it is against the law to be in possession of \"Challenger\" debris, and any newly discovered pieces must be turned over to NASA.\n On board \"Challenger\" was an American flag, dubbed the Challenger flag, that was sponsored by Boy Scout Troop 514 of Monument, Colorado. It was recovered intact, still sealed in its plastic container. A soccer ball from the personal effects locker of Mission Specialist Ellison Onizuka was also recovered intact from the wreckage, and was later flown to the International Space Station aboard Soyuz Expedition 49 by American astronaut Robert S. Kimbrough. It is currently on display at Clear Lake High School in Houston."}}

In the DVD commentary to the Special Edition of \"Return of the Jedi\", Lucas notes that if the technology had been available in 1983, Jabba the Hutt would have been a CGI character similar to the one that appears in the Special Edition scene of \"A New Hope\".\n Jabba the Hutt only speaks Huttese on film, but his lines are subtitled in English. His voice and Huttese-language dialogue were performed by voice actor Larry Ward, whose work is not listed in the end credits. A heavy, booming quality was given to Ward's voice by pitching it an octave lower than normal and processing it through a subharmonic generator. A soundtrack of wet, slimy sound effects was recorded to accompany the movement of the puppet's limbs and mouth. "}}

In the DVD commentary to the Special Edition of \"Return of the Jedi\", Lucas notes that if the technology had been available in 1983, Jabba the Hutt would have been a CGI character similar to the one that appears in the Special Edition scene of \"A New Hope\".\n Jabba the Hutt only speaks Huttese on film, but his lines are subtitled in English. His voice and Huttese-language dialogue were performed by voice actor Larry Ward, whose work is not listed in the end credits. A heavy, booming quality was given to Ward's voice by pitching it an octave lower than normal and processing it through a subharmonic generator. A soundtrack of wet, slimy sound effects was recorded to accompany the movement of the puppet's limbs and mouth. Jabba the Hutt's musical theme is played on a tuba."}}

The eyes and facial expressions were operated by radio control.\n Lucas voiced displeasure in the puppet's appearance and immobility, complaining that the puppet had to be moved around the set to film different scenes. In the DVD commentary to the Special Edition of \"Return of the Jedi\", Lucas notes that if the technology had been available in 1983, Jabba the Hutt would have been a CGI character similar to the one that appears in the Special Edition scene of \"A New Hope\".\n Jabba the Hutt only speaks Huttese on film, but his lines are subtitled in English. His voice and Huttese-language dialogue were performed by voice actor Larry Ward, whose work is not listed in the end credits. A heavy, booming quality was given to Ward's voice by pitching it an octave lower than normal and processing it through a subharmonic generator. A soundtrack of wet, slimy sound effects was recorded to accompany the movement of the puppet's limbs and mouth. Jabba the Hutt's musical theme is played on a tuba. The musical theme is composed by John Williams."}}

It was featured on the highest value stamp issued in the \"Architecture\" definitive postage stamp set issued in 1982 by the P&T, the forerunner of An Post. \n "}}

During this turmoil, the Dashwoods retreated to the upper floor and took in lodgers to pay the bills, albeit very superior lodgers, who included Nancy Mitford and James Lees-Milne, who was secretary of the Country House Committee of the National Trust and instrumental in the Trust's acquisition of many such houses. In 1943, Sir John gave the house and grounds to the National Trust."}}

Athos in which he had ever entered.", "He considered it the will of God that he stay there.", "His Elder, Fr.

Departure for Corinth", "All this occurred up to the year 1934, when an unexpected and inexplicable event troubled his peaceful monastic life.", "Someone, whose name he never learned, sent him a copy of the periodical Anaplasis, which had a commentary on the position of the Professors of the School of Theology at the University of Athens regarding the Order of Masons.", "Their position was neither for nor against.", "But it sparked tremendous questions in the spirit of the young monk, who did not have the necessary education to judge for himself.", "There was no qualified person to help him with the agonizing question, nor could he find one.", "He was pondering over this issue day and night, wondering why the professors spoke the way they did.", "He wondered what Masonry is and what influence it had upon the Church.", "Since he could not find an answer, he thought of going \"out into the world\" - as the monks of the Holy Mountain say - in order to find appropriate people, to ask them, to have things explained to him.", "Every monk, and the Hagiorite monks in particular, give very strict vows to live in the monastery of their repentance, their tonsure.", "They are not to abandon the monastery and their abbot, as a rule, does not give permission, with few exceptions, for a monk to leave.", "Gerasimos the monk, who could no longer find peace, thought simply, monastically.", "He went to the icon of the Panagia to do his prostrations and to beseech her in prayer: He thought that if it is for his good to leave the Holy Mountain, upon requesting his permission, the Elder must give his blessing directly without hesitation.", "If he does not give his answer directly, or if he refuses, then this will mean that it is not the will of God to leave the Holy Mountain.", "This is what happened.", "The difficult Elder monk Chrysostomos Kartsonas, even though he had no other monk with him and he loved Gerasimos dearly, agreed to the request.", "But he agreed with the hope that his monk would soon return to him.", "The fact that he did not return soon created a sense of bitterness in the Elder Chrysostomos, who had the opportunity to see his monk again only after some thirty years, when Gerasimos was Bishop of Boston.", "### Theological Seminary - Corinth", "In early Spring of 1934 he left the Garden of Panagia, the Holy Mountain, filled with hopes of finding answers to his questions.", "Immediately, his inner struggle was linked with his interest in attending the Theological Seminary of Corinth, about which his brother George, a teacher, had spoken to him.", "As a monk, he owned little and had economic difficulties - he could not afford to attend the seminary.", "These were overcome by his father who provided some funds and by Metropolitan Damaskenos of Corinth who provided him with a small scholarship (from the Monastery of Panagia of the Rock of Nemea, where he had to be enrolled as a member of the monastic community for ecclesiastical reasons).", "There he began a six year course of study at the Theological Seminary of Corinth.", "To receive his diploma from the Seminary he went to the Seminary of Arta toward the end of the academic year 1938, where the present Archbishop Seraphim of Athens and all Greece also completed his studies and with whom they had maintained a friendship.", "It was a difficult and problematic situation for a young, but so mature, man to pursue studies surrounded by children ten or twelve years younger than he.", "This was the least of his problems.", "The diligence and the maturity of the young monk created serious problems for the professors.", "The monk sought a great deal; they offered a little.", "Often the tension in the classroom reached dimensions of significant proportions.", "It was only in music that the monk-student Gerasimos had no proficiency.", "His voice was weak and not very good.", "He read a great deal and he listened carefully, but he completed his studies with even a greater spiritual thirst.", "In the meantime, in June of 1935, Metropolitan Damaskenos of Corinth, ordained him to the diaconate.", "A coincidence, a divine sign he was ordained on the Feast Day of the Holy Spirit, and he gave up his spirit on June 12, 1995, on the Feast of the Holy Spirit, just after Fr. Alkiviadis Calivas, in the presence of friends and relatives, offered the Sacrament of Holy Unction and read the Prayers for the Dying.", "Gerasimos offered sixty full years of service in the Priesthood.", "### School of Theology - University of Athens", "The element of unsatisfied spiritual thirst simply and naturally guided him to the idea of attending a Theological School.", "He wanted to study there also with the hope that he would be initiated more deeply into the truth, for whose sake he would enter into many deprivations.", "It is difficult for one to accept this, but positions and official authority never interested him.", "He did not even care to have his theological degree from the University, which he, of course, received.", "He was completely indifferent to such things.", "When someone understands the absolute nature of this indifference, he also understand how and why Bishop Gerasimos of Abydos remained a monk of the Holy Mountain, and particularly of the Skete of St. Anna, while he lived and served in the great metropolitan cities of the two continents and in the great university centers of the world: Boston, Oxford, Munich, Athens.", "Given his advanced age, he prepared himself, nevertheless, for the introductory examinations to the School of Theology in Athens.", "He experienced some difficulties in the literary part of the examination, but had excellent results in the mathematical.", "He entered the School of Theology and began with greater zeal to follow the courses which were being taught during that era by such great professors as Nikolaos Louvaris, Hamilcar Alivizatos, Vasilios Vellas, Panagiotis Bratsiotis, Demetrios Balanos, Georgios Soteriou, Gregorios Papamichael, Vasilios Stefanides, Panagiotis Trembelas and Ioannis Karmires.", "From the beginning, Professor Louvaris became his favorite, perhaps because of his profound thought and thorough knowledge of philosophy, which distinguished him, and which he used to emphasize the value of the truths of faith.", "During this same period, other young men were studying theology and had distinguished careers later, such as Dionysios Psarianos (now Metropolitan of Kozani), Gabriel Kalokairinos (later Metropolitan of Thera), Makarios Kykkotis (later Archbishop of Cyprus), Silas Koskinas (later Metropolitan of New Jersey, U.S.A.), Basil Moustakis (author, poet) and Evangelos Theodorou (university professor of theology).", "Unfortunately, just as the most substantive courses of theology were about to begin, World War II broke out in October 1940.", "In addition to all the other misfortunes, the students missed out on their regular studies.", "For the rest of his lifetime, Gerasimos of Abydos would regret this loss, which he considered great, particularly since what he was doing he was doing for a more comprehensive understanding of the truth.", "This is why he always valued greatly the service of teaching, the oral lesson, when the professor would attempt, through various ways, to analyze and expand the horizons of learning.", "It is certainly not fortuitous that he himself loved to teach, and he loved it a great deal.", "While, as we said, he was indifferent to positions of authority, he had a great desire, from this time onward, to acquire the qualifications for teaching, to become a teacher, to speak all the more profoundly and convincingly about the simple and certain faith which he acquired experientially on the Holy Mountain.", "In the meantime, and even though he did not have an exceptional voice, he was assigned to serve as a deacon at the Church of St. Dionysios the Areopagite, in the center of Athens.", "### Ordination to the Priesthood - The Orphanage in Vouliagmeni", "The German occupation began and everything was overthrown.", "At the end of May 1941, with the breakdown of the front in the Greek-Bulgarian boundary, he was ordained - although he never considered himself worthy of it - a priest by Metropolitan Michael of Corinth.", "He now had the Priesthood for which he never considered himself worthy.", "However, he did everything that he could for an entire lifetime to honor it.", "At this point we must emphasize that even when he became a bishop in 1962, he believed steadfastly that the priesthood is one.", "He believed that the bishop has nothing more than the priest, being only an archpriest, the first among priests.", "Primarily the bishop has the particular charisma from God to ordain other priests.", "The bishop as a hierarch is naturally the leader of the priests, who also celebrate the sacraments as validly as the bishop, once they have received the priesthood, the Sacred Tradition of the Church.", "It is understood of course that the priests must be united in faith with the bishop, who in turn also has the faith of the whole Church.", "Once, when defending these opinions and explaining to me how and why he came these conclusions, he said: \"How does the Eucharist which I celebrate as a bishop differ from the Eucharist which a priest of my diocese celebrates?", "Since there is no difference, we have the same priesthood.\"", "At the beginning of the German occupation in 1942, Archbishop Damaskenos, who already knew and had helped him economically and morally and who continued to esteem him highly, appointed him to be Director of the Orphanage of Vouliagmeni.", "This responsibility offered nothing toward his profound theological aspirations.", "Those years, however, were so difficult that he felt obliged to accept the position.", "For three years, under terribly unfavorable conditions, he cared for the orphaned children not only to survive but also to experience some nurturing love.", "During the course of the war and the occupation, he helped many people to survive hunger and persecutions, while, at the same time, he pursued with his familiar thirst the meager spiritual activities of the period: lecture, lessons, meetings and conversations with spiritual people.", "Liturgical life with the tradition of the Holy Mountain constituted the strong foundation, while he sought further knowledge that would help him understand those things he believed.", "During the occupation, he often visited his professor Nikolaos Louvaris.", "He continued to do this even after the professor had been imprisoned at the end of 1944, because of his participation in the last occupational government of Athens (at the request of Archbishop Damaskenos himself to serve as Minister of Education for national reasons.", "Among these reasons was the extraction of a promise from the Germans to expel the Bulgarians from the Greek territories in the north.)", "### Chancellor of the Metropolis of Corinth", "Toward the end of 1945, Metropolitan Michael of Corinth offered him the position of Chancellor.", "With mixed feelings he accepted.", "He was concerned over this involvement in administrative matters, but being only thirty-five years old at the time he was daring enough to accept the post.", "He respected and highly esteemed his bishop Michael, who in turn loved and entrusted his Chancellor.", "Everything was going well, as long as he left most administrative matters in the hands of the secretaries of the Metropolis.", "The ecclesiastical environment of Corinth included traditionalists, who were attached to the forms without understanding their essence, as well as certain hyper-nationalists and some liberals.", "He himself avoided all extremes, emphasized the need for understanding the essence of things, and worked diligently to establish a balanced view.", "In particular he wanted to be close to the priests, to create harmony among them, to support them, to point out to them that they should not be involved in the politico-ideological battles of the opponents in the Greek Civil War.", "Of course, he already held the opinion that Communism was an evil not only because it denied Christ, but also because it did not really care about man, and therefore could not help him essentially.", "But he never justified the crimes of the anti-Communists either.", "During his years as Chancellor, when he was responsible for preaching and writing, he became more conscious of his limitations.", "This became clear to him in his capacity as the first co-worker of Metropolitan Michael in the publication of the periodical of that time The Apostle Paul, where he himself had to contribute articles and to publish, for the first time, some of his writings.", "It was then that he realized the demands and responsibilities of writing.", "He had become so sensitive to this awesome responsibility that, even though he wrote throughout his life and kept notes and expressed his opinions on paper, having composed entire commentaries on the books of the New Testament (on the Gospel of John, the Gospel of Mark, the Letters of St. Paul), including short articles on various theological and biblical subjects, only relatively few of them have been published: two complete volumes, a great many articles in periodicals and two additional texts - a book and a lengthy essay - are presently in the process of publication.", "The rest of his writings, gathered in five large cartons, still remain in manuscript form, not knowing yet what may be publishable.", "### Seeking Knowledge in Germany - The Study of Philosophy", "His thirst for deeper research and knowledge was growing.", "His idea for studies outside of Greece was also maturing.", "From his professors, and particularly from Professor Louvaris, he had come to appreciate German scholarship.", "Ecclesiastical leaders were recommending England or America to him.", "He refused.", "He was offered the position of priest of the Orthodox Church in Munich.", "He accepted.", "In September of 1947 he was ready.", "He had strange and conflicting emotions.", "He had come to know the evil side of the Nazi soldiers while at the orphanage in Vouliagmeni, where he and all the orphans had been forcefully expelled.", "The condition of post-war occupied Germany was then terrible: poverty, crime and uncertainty.", "Nevertheless, the professors and the writers who had survived began once again to work diligently and systematically - so characteristic of these people.", "Thus the Archimandrite Gerasimos, at the age of 37, embarked for Munich, Germany, without knowing any German.", "It was an adventurous trip.", "The occupation forces assigned him to a room and he began his work.", "It was the work of a pastor to a small trouble-filled congregation with many problems, and a systematic and extensive study of the German language.", "With patience and persistence he succeeded.", "What did he study in the capital of Roman Catholic Bavaria?", "When he began he planned to study the New Testament.", "And this is what he would say when asked at the Roman Catholic School of Theology at the university.", "In fact, however, he had spent more time studying Greek philosophy.", "He considered it essential to learn how the philosophers thought about the great questions of man - especially about the question of God.", "He was fascinated beyond imagination by these questions, and he would be constantly testing whatever it was they were seeking, attempting, and devising.", "It was clear that inquisitive spirit was still unsatisfied.", "All of these questions, immersed as he was in the Greek philosophers and especially Plato and Aristotle, inspired him and he appreciated them greatly.", "He appreciated this philosophical thinking so much so that he characterized an element of it as a propaedeia to Christianity.", "This is why his first book, the product of research of that period in Germany until the Spring of 1951, was given the title: Greek Philosophy as Propaideia to Christianity.", "This work was published in Athens in 1954.", "Toward this direction in his thought, he was influenced by the famous Romano Guardini, who theologized while philosophizing and created literature while speaking.", "Literature appears to have never drawn the attention of Gerasimos of Abydos.", "However, to theologize by following the successes or failures of philosophy interested him a great deal.", "It was something like an exercise for him to comprehend more deeply the truths of faith, which philosophy did not possess.", "This approach and point of view has something that is wisely contradictory.", "But he insisted until the end of his life that philosophy actually helped him.", "And this despite the fact that all of his writings after 1954 do not show that he indeed was helped by philosophy.", "Everything clearly constitutes a deeper penetration into the revealed truth of Sacred Scripture and Tradition.", "How philosophy actually helped him is known only to him.", "If we were to risk an interpretation of this fact, we would say the following: Gerasimos of Abydos, through his virtue of love and understanding for people, was able to appreciate any obscure or undeveloped formulations of the philosophers about God and man, in comparison to the truth, and as a spiritual man could show condescension for the failures of philosophers.", "Such failures, however, were for him occasions to marvel all the more the faith and the tradition which he had lived on the Holy Mountain.", "Moreover, he would always understand the historical journey of mankind, as well as divine economy itself, as a unified whole, in which he indirectly if not in expressis verbis included Greek philosophy.", "The intense and often successful - in minor issues - involvement of Greek philosophy with the great questions (something which had not yet been consciously and so deeply accomplished in world history) constituted a sort of preparation for man to come before the revelatory work of God and particularly that of the Incarnation.", "More concretely, he would emphasize throughout his life that we owe to philosophy our thirst for something higher, more sublime.", "It was philosophy that created in us the desire and brought us \"thirsty\" up to the point of the coming of Christ.", "And thirsty as we were, we \"drank\" from the living water of Christ and accepted Him.", "### Greece or America", "The sojourn in Germany was coming to an end.", "It was Spring of 1951 when the first invitations - completely unexpected - reached him to consider going to America.", "Metropolitan Michael was now Archbishop of North and South America and he wanted to have his former Chancellor, Gerasimos Papadopoulos, by his side.", "But things did not go well at first.", "He went first to Greece, where strong ecclesiastical personalities, such as Metropolitan Agathonikos of Kalavrita and Aigialeias, Metropolitan Prokopios of Corinth and others, wanted him to stay in Greece, promising to make him a metropolitan.", "While certainly not scornful of this latter prospect, he was not much moved by it.", "The then Archbishop Spyridon offered him the position of spiritual father at the large student dormitory of Apostolike Diakonia.", "He accepted this responsibility, which lasted for only one academic year, but this proved to be a wonderful year for the students.", "In most such religious programs at this time, a spirit of moralism prevailed.", "Archimandrite Gerasimos Papadopoulos, however, was kindling in the souls of the students a love for Christ and opening their wings for flights into the life of the Spirit.", "He believed most steadfastly that the opening of the wings of the students had the greatest significance.", "He believed that with outstretched wings they could fly and find their way, even with some diversions they would reach their goal, they would mature, they would experience the true Christ.", "On the contrary, without wings at all, or with folded wings, they would never be able to fly; they would remain spiritually weak and immature infants throughout their lives.", "And if I have understood him correctly, it is in this that the deeper reason lies for encouraging the students then to study and pay attention to the teaching of Louvaris.", "While disagreeing with him on many points, he nevertheless appreciated how his writings helped the students to spread their intellectual wings.", "He broadened, rather than narrowed, the ways of the Spirit.", "He appreciated his work as the spiritual father of the students and had determined to stay in Greece.", "### America - Holy Cross School of Theology", "Once again America beckoned.", "Archbishop Michael had not been disappointed.", "He sent a bishop to convince Gerasimos to come to America.", "He relented and accepted the invitation.", "Various communities were considered for him in some of the larger American cities.", "Fortunately these proposals were not successful and Archbishop Michael appointed him to be Professor of New Testament and chaplain at Holy Cross School of Theology in Boston, near some of the greatest universities of America.", "By July of 1952 he was in Boston.", "He had to prepare himself systematically.", "He worked most diligently in a super-human manner, doing research and preparing texts for the students to study.", "They in turn were not always well equipped and the work of teaching them was very difficult.", "He had no time, after all, for extensive scholastic literary, historical and critical analyses.", "He had to concentrate on the necessary, the basic, the essential elements.", "This was in harmony with his own character.", "He therefore drew and concentrated the interest of the students upon the presuppositions, the goal, the thought, the theology of the New Testament writings.", "The end result of this effort was the ease and depth of movement within the whole realm of the New Testament.", "Many of the proposals of the liberal interpreters of Protestantism he considered to be immature things.", "Once when they told him that Bultmann supported that the original order of the chapters in the Gospel of St. John was different, he responded like this: \"We cannot prove that the order was originally different.", "Bultmann supports another order of the chapters simply because with that order he understands John better and thus would have preferred the Gospel to have been written in that order.\"", "Such forms of criticism and the questions raised about Sacred Scripture by many liberal scholars tend to deny something in Scripture, rather than to help man to understand more deeply the truth.", "In the area of criticism he did not negate everything.", "For example, he agreed that a particular saying of the Lord could have been uttered originally in a somewhat different form.", "He believed, however, that for the Evangelist to record it, it was certainly uttered by the Lord and it constituted an essential aspect of the faith and the Tradition of the Church.", "It is a revelation.", "He attempted to comprehend revelation for himself and to make it understandable for the students by also using reason, to a certain degree.", "He held that Christian Faith possesses an inner logic and consequence which must be comprehensible.", "It was not an easy matter, yet he pushed on in that direction as much as he could, as much as it was permitted, after all, by the truth that is inexhaustible for us.", "As soon as he would reach the ends of logic or of his own capabilities, he would surrender himself completely to the declaration of Scripture, to its straight forward theology, to the \"so it is written.\"", "Any fantastic creation of new truths, that is, of another Christ, or a denial and a falsification of what we have in Scripture constitute a heresy.", "He only sought to go deeper into the divine truths, to attempt to know more profoundly the truths of Scripture.", "This is what he considered to be the goal of the exegete and of the theologian.", "He believed, however, that the exegetes and the theologians have difficulties in understanding the truth, primarily because we do not live as much as we should the life of Christ.", "If we surrender to Christ, then the Holy Spirit \"will guide you (us) into all the truth\" (Jn. 16.13-15).", "### Father \"G.U.L.F.\"", "His life at the Holy Cross School of Theology was not without difficulties.", "The spirit that motivated him was different from the spirit of the Dean, Fr. Ezekiel Tsoukalas, who had the unfortunate inspiration to name him sub-dean of the School.", "The conflicts were many.", "Archimandrite Professor Gerasimos refused to oppress the students through the school program.", "He confronted them with a different spirit.", "He would convince them to work, but freely, uncoerced.", "And the students would respond accordingly.", "They came to more than love Gerasimos, who quickly came to be known in the code language of the students as Fr. \"G.U.L.F.\" - the initial letters for Gerasimos, Understanding, Love, Faith.", "These were the perennial issues he discussed with them, and that's why they had become his code name for many years.", "With every opportunity and particularly at night his room would fill with students.", "There were never enough chairs and they would sit on the floor and in the hall.", "They made inquiries, carried on discussions, listened and were satisfied with much love and learning.", "It was what these young men were seeking, particularly in this situation, who would in two or three years be ordained into the priesthood.", "He lived for the students, no more no less.", "He worked to acquire knowledge and he prayed for God to give him perseverance.", "Thus he overcame the crises and the disappointments coming from the Dean, who reached the point of first depriving him of his position as Sub-dean and then asking for his removal from the School.", "The Dean did not succeed in his latter plan, much to the delight of the students, who lost no opportunity to express their esteem and devotion for their professor, \"Fr. G.U.L.F.\"", "This reaction served as the highest form of consolation for the professor, who found perseverance and persistence to continue the work of teaching and nurturing spiritually the students to the best of his ability.", "During his tenure at Holy Cross it was necessary to teach courses beyond his own field and to undertake even the entire administration of the School, as Acting Dean, which he did not particularly like.", "### Service to the Orthodox of America", "His popularity, which was simultaneously scientific and spiritual, passed beyond the boundaries of Holy Cross.", "Very soon he was invited and in demand for lectures, homilies, and director of retreat discussions in various cities of the United States.", "He gave particular attention himself to the New England Federation of Orthodox Students.", "It was the first environment, outside of the School, where he had been invited to confront certain critical issues - theological and social - but in a different manner than the one he had been exposed to at the University of Athens and later of Munich.", "Here the interests of the students, who came from various university schools, were of a more general character and were not contained strictly within the realm of theological subjects.", "The need to respond to such demands required him to be initiated into and to become conscious of the intense concerns of the people of the new world.", "These critical issues had their own presuppositions and, in their external signs, were very different from those Fr. Gerasimos knew in Greece and in Germany.", "Therefore, the speaker had to acquire as soon as possible a new inner private training, if he really desired to help these young people and if he indeed possessed the necessary capabilities.", "And he succeeded.", "This is why he was greatly esteemed in these circles, where he became a close friend of the well-known Russian theologian, Fr. Georges Florovsky, who also gave lectures in these same circles.", "This was only the beginning of his activity outside of Holy Cross.", "He extended himself to ever broader areas and to other metropolitan areas besides Boston.", "This activity often took the form of a series of lectures during spiritual retreats or of a series of Bible studies.", "This activity continued until the last winter of his life.", "He also pursued advanced studies at universities in Boston, receiving a Master of Theology in 1957 from Boston University.", "This grounded him and prepared him for the spiritual reality of the New World.", "This was his fourth and final stage of studies, which he continued with youthful zeal until his last breath.", "Of the three previous stages of studies, the first was accomplished on the Holy Mountain, the second at the University of Athens, and the third at the University of Munich.", "One must appreciate the presuppositions, the character, the depth and the breadth of each of these stages, if one truly wants to understand their assimilating spirit and their benevolent influence upon Gerasimos, the Bishop of Abydos.", "### The Reality of Orthodoxy in America", "How quickly he came to understand the problems of the new world is obvious also in the fact that only several months after his arrival in America, he dealt with courageous realism the great problem of Greek Orthodoxy in America, the problem of the Greek language.", "He not only spoke about it, but he also wrote about it, and declared openly that if we want to teach Orthodoxy to our children, if we want them to want to come to our Church, and especially if we want them to be consciously Orthodox Christians, we must speak to them in English, but without this to mean that we should abandon the Greek language.", "He took this position in 1952 and 1953, when no one would dare approach this dramatic problem among the great multitudes of diaspora in America.", "He favored the introduction of some English in the Liturgy from that time, yet he still insisted until his end that no matter how many decades pass, no matter how many changes take place, no matter how little the congregation understands the Greek language, a portion of the Divine Liturgy, even a small portion, must continue to be in Greek, in the language of Scripture and our ancient Tradition.", "The teaching ministry of our Church, however, must be in the language of the people.", "In order to more fully understand this, we must emphasize something else.", "In the innermost being of the Archimandrite Gerasimos of that period a real drama was unfolding.", "He, who had a real passion for the Greek philosophers and so loved their thought, was also and first of all a monk of the Holy Mountain.", "He experienced Orthodoxy upon its acropolis; he experienced it in the hearts of the ascetics, who lived consciously the Sacred Tradition of nineteen centuries of Orthodoxy.", "This is how Orthodoxy was planted into his deepest being.", "Orthodoxy led to salvation.", "Yet, Hellenism had also profoundly influenced his spirit.", "Fr. Gerasimos felt the obligation to give preference to one of the two.", "A violent inner struggle took place.", "He struggled to see if he could have both fully.", "It was impossible.", "He was disappointed and frustrated.", "The decision had to be made.", "The soul nurtured by the Holy Mountain took precedence.", "Salvation must come first, the Greek language can follow.", "Christian Orthodoxy is first, Hellenism follows.", "### Hierarch by Obedience", "At the end of 1961 Archbishop Iakovos insisted that Fr. Gerasimos become bishop for Detroit.", "Archimandrite Gerasimos refused for two reasons.", "He loved his teaching ministry at the School of Theology very much, which he considered to be suited for him and which he would have to abandon.", "Secondly, he felt that he had no calling for administrative work, which he would be obliged to carry out as bishop.", "The Archbishop, however, who esteemed him very much, both for his capabilities and for his spiritual life, did not give up on the idea.", "Months later, without telling Fr. Gerasimos anything, the Archbishop spoke to Patriarch Athenagoras.", "On April 6, 1962 the Synod of the Patriarchate elected Gerasimos as titular Bishop of Abydos.", "On the day after the election the Archbishop announced the news to Gerasimos, who chose not to say no to the voice of the Church.", "On May 20, 1962 he was consecrated in Boston and would serve as the Bishop of the Diocese of Boston.", "### Life as a Bishop", "His period of service in the Diocese of Boston would not continue for too many years.", "Certain difficulties in the Pittsburgh Diocese required the presence of Gerasimos of Abydos.", "As he began his ministry as a bishop, which continued administratively until 1977, he was fully aware of his own shortcomings, those of his flock and, naturally, those of his priests.", "He never liked absolute formulations, because they did not belong to the tradition, nor were they realistic.", "And in order to face the problems of the flock in an edifying manner, he followed a traditional principle: economia and flexibility on secondary matters, strictness on matters of faith.", "This principle he attempted to inspire into his priests, with whom he labored as co-workers.", "He had regular assemblies with them and - most importantly - he know how to listen to them, a prized virtue in a bishop.", "Thus he managed to be supportive in their difficult work as priests in the communities, to earn their trust and to make easier the solution of many problems.", "He did not have the slightest difficulty in saying to his priests that they, in their parishes, are the \"bishops.\"", "Naturally there were certain disagreements and conflicts.", "He was the bishop and had tremendous responsibilities, the primary responsibility, and often had to impose the opinion which he judged to be the correct one.", "But even this was always done with consultations, with discussion of the issues, so that it was not like some authoritative and autocratic imposition.", "His episcopal ministry both in Boston and in Pittsburgh was truly successful, since undoubtedly the flock and the priests considered him as their spiritual father, who wanted and could help them spiritually.", "He worked and behaved in such a way that all wanted to approach him and to confide in him.", "All knew that he had many things to offer on all the matters of the faith and the spiritual life.", "Yet, he never believed that his service was perfect, or that he had avoided mistakes.", "He considered his episcopal ministry to be a soft-spoken one.", "He did not try to impose his authority or impress people.", "He did not change or overthrow any existing conditions.", "He only wanted to help the people live more fully and more deeply their life in Christ, the life of the Church.", "In particular, he always tried to show the faithful the wonderful and saving majesty of the Divine Liturgy.", "During the synods of the Greek Orthodox Bishops of all America, under the presidency of Archbishop Iakovos, his presence was positive and edifying when he spoke and even when he did not speak.", "He had the prudence to listen with an open mind and to understand that, in general, the opinion of the Archbishop would prevail.", "But he also had the necessary courage and outspokenness to express his own opinion and to support what he believed to be correct, independently of any concerns that might be unpleasant.", "In such circumstance he never fostered ulterior motives nor a disposition to insult anyone.", "In all of his activities and various cooperative efforts with simple lay people, with officials, with priests, with fellow bishops and with the Archbishop he always sought to achieve a balance - a moderation in all things - which he managed to transform into what he himself would call reality.", "This realism presupposes the knowledge of what is ideally correct, the recognition of the limited capabilities and dispositions of people, as well as the pursuit of what is attainable.", "One who is spiritually advanced is never satisfied with merely what is simply attainable, but one accepts it with condescension, hoping that at least it will serve as a first step for further progress.", "### Interlude at Oxford and Return to Holy Cross", "In 1965, as Bishop of Boston, after continuous teaching and pastoral labors, he felt something like an inner emptiness.", "At the same time, he was seeking out great scholars to discuss certain important problems of theology in the New Testament.", "Moreover, he was seeking a brief period of relaxation, to set aside his pastoral responsibilities for the sake of relaxed theological discussions without interruptions.", "Thus, for several months he went to Oxford, England.", "He visited libraries and attended various lectures.", "But this was secondary.", "The significant thing for Bishop Gerasimos, who by now had 55 years upon his shoulders, was the opportunity to discuss at length with many - over ten - prominent professors and exegetes.", "He was prepared to listen, but was impressed because most of them were also prepared to listen to him.", "They were not Orthodox, but he was nevertheless interested in seeing how they thought about critical issues, about issues that perhaps they did not care to write about.", "Within his soul the Orthodoxy of the Holy Mountain prevailed absolutely, but he was prepared to accept some corrections in his thought about the person of Christ and the divine Economy.", "Most characteristic of his character and the degree of his spiritual life was his great love for discussions, concerning the person of Christ and the difficult theological issues related to the life of faith of the faithful.", "He did want to discuss other subjects, and had no interest in hearing what one is doing, how another was insulted, and other similar things.", "Until his very last days and hours, he wanted to discuss with passion only theological subjects, about \"our Christ,\" as he used to say.", "It is characteristic that in April 1995, after several months, professor and Metropolitan Demetrios of Vresthena, a person he esteemed highly, came to visit him.", "After the usual greetings about their health, the two bishops sat down because Bishop Gerasimos wanted to discuss and to ask questions.", "To the Metropolitan's inquiry, \"What shall we talk about, Geronta?\"", "Bishop Gerasimos responded: \"Why, about our Christ, of course, what else?\"", "Ultimately, Bishop Gerasimos was not enlightened in Oxford, as he would say, from the discussions which he enjoyed with the truly wise persons he had met there.", "He appreciated them, he relaxed and continued there, until certain problems at Holy Cross forced the Archbishop to recall him to Boston in a hurry.", "It was then that he was given the responsibility to be the Dean of the School of Theology, which he, of course, loved most dearly.", "Later, of course, other problems in Pittsburgh would require his peacemaking presence there.", "### Retirement", "At the age of 67, that is, in 1977, he retired from the administrative and pastoral responsibilities of the Diocese of Pittsburgh.", "He had asked to retire in 1976.", "He wanted to find time for writing and for spiritual cultivation.", "He always considered very little that which he had achieved internally.", "Finally, his retirement was accepted on June 19, 1977.", "What impressive coincidences!", "He was ordained a deacon on June 17, 1935, the day of the Holy Spirit; he gave his spirit on June 12, 1995 on the day of the Holy Spirit.", "The news of his retirement, for those who did not know him well, made an impression.", "He was still at the prime of his life, working many hours in the day, and people did not expect that he would retire.", "As a clergyman, a teacher par excellence, a writer, a reader and a spiritual father, this act of his was also perfectly understandable.", "And this is why for them the Bishop's retirement was a courageous act.", "This is why it was esteemed and marveled at from all sides.", "Moreover, everyone knew that Bishop Gerasimos was not seeking honors and authoritative positions, thrones and acclamations.", "But precisely because he did not seek thrones or authorities, he was truly enthroned in the hearts of the people.", "And he remained enthroned there, where he still is and will always be.", "In Pittsburgh, a farewell banquet was organized in his honor, and the greetings and farewell wishes expressed that evening", "constitute a monument of gratitude and profound estimation for the departing bishop.", "Representatives of the clergy and of the communities, of the national Greek-American Associations, and of the faithful people of the Diocese spoke most affectionately and with great admiration for their beloved bishop.", "Naturally, of course, the Archbishop also spoke to honor Bishop Gerasimos.", "Before, during and after the farewell banquet, Bishop Gerasimos felt various conflicting emotions: What had been completed in his life?", "Should it have come to an end?", "What was to begin now?", "Had forty-two years of intensive preparation and activity as a clergyman received their seal of completion, or would they find some worthy continuity?", "And what form will such continuity take?", "He had thought about everything a year before.", "Now, however, he was pressured emotionally by these thoughts.", "And the pressure was considerable.", "Most of all he was sad over his separation from the people he loved and who loved him.", "His consolation was that a new bishop, younger in years, would be able to offer more for them and would love them just as much.", "He believed that people ought not to grow too old in these positions.", "Immediately after his retirement, he traveled to Greece.", "He went back to the Holy Mountain.", "His cell at St. Anna was now in ruins.", "A thought he had about living there the rest of his life took flight when he looked upon his ruined cell and the little chapel, where he lived and prayed for four years in simplicity, with frugality - a characteristic virtue and mark of his entire life.", "At this point I shall describe an incident, over which I had a considerable internal debate regarding whether or not to record it.", "Because, however, it has been confirmed by an abbot of a monastery, I feel that I should mention it.", "The visit of Bishop Gerasimos to the Holy Mountain coincided with the feast day of the main church of the St. Anna Skete.", "As a bishop of the Ecumenical Patriarchate and a former monk of Mt. Athos, a few of the old monks who remembered him, particularly the monks of Fr. Chrysostomos Kartsonas, naturally, wanted him to celebrate the Divine Liturgy at the great festival of St. Anna.", "Bishop Gerasimos, however, because he had been living in America had a short, trimmed beard.", "This prompted some of the monks of the Skete to oppose his liturgizing because, they claimed, the people would be scandalized seeing him with a trimmed beard.", "When they clearly intimated their perplexity over this matter, Bishop Gerasimos dismissed it, giving it no thought at all.", "He simply went and stood in a back corner of the church as if nothing had happened, and he remained there from the beginning of the all night vigil until late the next day when the Divine Liturgy was celebrated.", "There, alone, without any distinctive signs, a stranger among strangers, he recalled his old monastic experiences and prayed as much as he could.", "It is the custom during the vigil of the feast day of St. Anna for the hesychast ascetics and hermit monks, who live a very austere monasticism in poor, isolated kalyves, far from the Sketes and Monasteries, to gather silently in the central church.", "After the liturgy, one of these ascetic monks approached two leading monks of the Skete and asked them: \"Who was that clergyman who stood in that corner stasidi?\"", "They explained to him that he was Bishop Gerasimos of Abydos, who had not been permitted to liturgize because he had trimmed his beard.", "Then the ascetic monk crossed himself and told them: \"What have you done?", "How could you?", "All night long I could see over his head a light like a dove, while over your heads there appeared something like little devils!\"", "I verified the information regarding this incident, and when I mentioned it to Bishop Gerasimos himself, he confirmed everything except the reference to a dove, about which he knew nothing.", "At first, after retirement, his thought was to settle somewhere in Greece.", "Arrangements had been made with me because we would have been staying together.", "He even had sent ahead a small portion of his books, since his destination was Greece.", "Deliberations had also been made for him to teach a few hours at the Rizarios Ecclesiastical School in Athens.", "### America Asks for a Spiritual Father", "While there were many signs indicating that Bishop Gerasimos would prefer to settle in Greece, and particularly in Athens, to be near the libraries, the clear and fervent voice of the Greek Orthodox faithful of America moved him and won him over.", "Messages would come to him in Greece, informing him that he was wanted and needed there in America.", "I remember how the now Metropolitan Silas (Koskinas) had come then to conjure me: \"Do not pressure your uncle to remain in Athens, we need him in America!", "We need a spiritual father to talk to, our priests especially and even we the bishops.\"", "I too had been shaken by all these urgent messages.", "But I had not yet understood how much the blessed Elder loved the Theological School of the Holy Cross.", "He submitted to the invitations of the people of America, but with the understanding that he would return to his beloved School, to teach according to his ability, living on campus but not being involved with the administrative responsibilities of the School, of the Diocese, or any other institution.", "### Again at Holy Cross - Teacher, Writer, Counsellor", "His terms were accepted.", "They sent him an urgent express letter.", "He obeyed the voice of the Church.", "He returned and took up residence in a typical student apartment, consisting of two small rooms.", "This happened on November 1977.", "There at the School, in a truly idyllic environment, on that verdant hill with innumerable trees, many of which he had planted himself and cared for dearly, Bishop Gerasimos lived another eighteen years as professor and counselor and spiritual father to the students.", "It was for this purpose that he had been invited to come back.", "In fact, the blessed Elder felt that he had never really left the School, but rather had lived there continuously since 1952, when he first came to America.", "Of course, he had served ten years as Bishop in Pittsburgh, but because he was always close to the School in spirit, he felt that he had never been absent from his beloved School on the hill.", "At the School, without seeking it, he became immediately the spiritual center.", "For four years he continued to teach with the load of a full time professor.", "Later he taught part time and then occasionally.", "For a few years it was necessary to teach the course in Dogmatics.", "He used to read and prepare himself with youthful vigor.", "He took advantage of this need of the School to study more profoundly for himself the Fathers of the Church, and to attempt to transmit their spirit to the students who would become priests in the future and would need to live with the help of the Fathers.", "### Study and Writing to the Very End", "It seems incredible, but in his retirement Bishop Gerasimos would work all day long.", "Until the very last days and hours of his life, he continued to read and to write, in spite of the fact that since the beginning of the 1980's serious health problems had appeared.", "A very serious case of septicemia had kept him for days in a state of aphasia.", "Later, problems appeared with his heart, which were treated with pills and patience.", "But the rhythm of his work was not interrupted.", "Even in the summer, during his vacation, he followed the same routine without losing any time.", "During virtually all of the summers after 1977, he traveled to Greece.", "And, of course, Greece meant primarily the village where he was born, Bouzi (now called Kyllini) of Corinth, Stymphalia, on the sides of Mt. Tzereia.", "He would spent about a week in Athens at the most and then he would go directly to Bouzi.", "There, again, during July and August, he would rise early and after his morning prayer, would begin his study immediately.", "He did the same in the afternoon until late.", "Whenever he arrived from America, he would seek out significant publications in contemporary Greek Orthodox theology, and particularly works of the Church Fathers commenting on biblical passages.", "He would not only read these books but would also take notes from them, marking in pencil important passages and whatever he considered useful to him.", "He had read and taken notes from virtually all of the significant works of the biblical scholars in the Schools of Theology of Greece.", "Parallel with this study, in spite of old age and the health problems of his heart and his feet, he did not neglect to serve the Liturgy in the various larger or smaller mountain towns.", "He never refused an invitation.", "He usually only refused to wear the episcopal miter during Liturgy.", "And so each summer the faithful in the mountain towns of Corinth looked forward with great anticipation for a visit from Bishop Gerasimos.", "During his years in retirement, Bishop Gerasimos devoted much time to teaching, but also to preparation of his very significant book, Orthodoxy, Faith and Life and a Greek edition in one volume, Orthodoxia - Piste kai Zoe, in Athens in 1987.", "This is not the place to analyze this work, but it should be noted that it sums up a very profound analysis and understanding of the work of divine economy for the salvation of the world.", "This particular analysis of the work of Christ surpasses in depth but also in simplicity many other parallel attempts.", "In this book an Orthodox bishop speaks about Christ and the Church, a bishop who for many years was a persistent researcher, who studied considerably the secular wisdom, who knew well the opinions of the heterodox, and - most importantly - he had been living the truth for fifty years in prayer and worship.", "Thus, the work presupposes knowledge and personal experiences and is written in order to edify the reader in a spiritual way.", "Whoever studies this book, regardless if one is a theologian or not, he will be filled with divine spirit and will be virtually incorporated into the Church.", "Following this book, Reflections on Our Christian Faith and Life was published in 1995, after Bishop Gerasimos fell asleep in the Lord.", "Another work on the eschatological faith of the Church will be printed in the very near future.", "The teaching and the writing work of Bishop Gerasimos drew, of course, the attention, the estimation and the admiration of professors, students and ecclesiastical circles.", "Moreover, during these eighteen years, the requests for lectures and Bible studies in various communities and university centers throughout the United States continued to come one after the other.", "Consequently, an ever widening circle of spiritual men and women and scholars were able to experience and appreciate the gift of the blessed Bishop Gerasimos.", "### The Abba of America - Living the Sacred Tradition", "But above and beyond all these things that have been related, the blessed Bishop Gerasimos was also something else: he was an Abba - a Father.", "He was a teacher to whom the young and the old would run at every difficulty with strictly theological issues.", "He was also the spiritual Father, the Abba, the comforter, the counselor.", "A whole world lived in the School and even a greater one far from it.", "But everyone knew that up there on the hill, a little beyond the chapel of the Holy Cross, there lived a wise and holy Elder.", "In his simple quarters he prayed and studied alone and was always ready to receive all.", "The very certainty that there lived such a man was itself a consolation.", "The students would pass by his window and would feel secure.", "From the central buildings and the classrooms the professors and administrators knew that at any difficult time the wise Elder had something prudent and helpful to say to them.", "The pain and the crossroads of life, the falls and the sins of spiritual people would take the path toward the room of the wise and holy Elder.", "Innumerable people, clergymen and laymen and laywomen, placed before him, again and again, the failures they experienced in their upward spiritual journey.", "He in turn would share their pain, but would also share their joy wherever they had succeeded well.", "With or without the stole over his neck, the blessed Bishop always served as an Abba, as a spiritual Father, as a Father confessor and comforter.", "And everyone - indeed everyone - would leave his cell always, more or less, strengthened and renewed in spirit.", "This work of the Elder, the Abba, was among the most burdensome and most difficult in the life of the Church.", "It staggers and empties the spiritual man who has profound sacred experiences and who possesses spiritual wealth that he readily offers to those who come to him.", "(People simply did not come to him who did not possess such a spiritual life).", "The blessed Bishop possessed such a spiritual life.", "He had it in abundance indeed, but he himself believed that it was poor, very poor.", "This is why until the very last hours of his life he continued to renew himself, to live with prayer and worship the truth, the mystery of Christ and of life, as he loved to remark.", "This was so because Bishop Gerasimos, although surrounded by the greatest universities of the world, lived with the daily prayer services as a simple monk.", "These nurtured him; through them he was \"rebaptized\" and lived.", "Early in the morning and every evening he was present, as in the old days on Mt. Athos, in the Chapel of the Holy Cross.", "And he loved to be the celebrant of the Divine Liturgy, as a simple priest, even more frequently than the young clergymen who loved to serve.", "It was enough for the students to see him in the Chapel without fail as an old man of so many years to be silently but consciously instructed, nurtured and edified.", "With or without saying it, they felt certain of the fact: the Tradition lives!", "Bishop Gerasimos was the Tradition!", "No one could tell them that the Tradition had been lost, that it was only in the past.", "They had the Tradition alive before them!", "This is the great contribution of the blessed Bishop.", "This is perhaps the reason why he had to live the faith and to continue his ascetic struggle in America, in \"our Theological School,\" as he loved to say.", "Taken from the book: Agape and Diakonia: Essays in Memory of Bishop Gerasimos of Abydos"], "meta": {"id": "test02919-0", "claim_title": "Abydos (Hellespont)", "claim_section": "Ecclesiastical history.", "claim_context": "The bishopric of Abydus appears in all the \"Notitiae Episcopatuum\" of the Patriarchate of Constantinople from the mid-7th century until the time of Andronikos III Palaiologos (1341), first as a suffragan of Cyzicus and then from 1084 as a metropolitan see without suffragans. The earliest bishop mentioned in extant documents is Marcian, who signed the joint letter of the bishops of Hellespontus to Emperor Leo I the Thracian in 458, protesting about the murder of Proterius of Alexandria. A letter of Peter the Fuller (471\u2013488) mentions a bishop of Abydus called Pamphilus. Ammonius signed the decretal letter of the Council of Constantinople in 518 against Severus of Antioch and others. Isidore was at the Third Council of Constantinople (680\u2013681), John at the Trullan Council (692), Theodore at the Second Council of Nicaea (787). An unnamed bishop of Abydus was a counsellor of Emperor Nikephoros II in 969.\n Seals attest Theodosius as bishop of Abydos in the 11th century, and John as metropolitan bishop of Abydos in the 11/12th century.

Departure for Corinth", "All this occurred up to the year 1934, when an unexpected and inexplicable event troubled his peaceful monastic life.", "Someone, whose name he never learned, sent him a copy of the periodical Anaplasis, which had a commentary on the position of the Professors of the School of Theology at the University of Athens regarding the Order of Masons.", "Their position was neither for nor against.", "But it sparked tremendous questions in the spirit of the young monk, who did not have the necessary education to judge for himself.", "There was no qualified person to help him with the agonizing question, nor could he find one.", "He was pondering over this issue day and night, wondering why the professors spoke the way they did.", "He wondered what Masonry is and what influence it had upon the Church.", "Since he could not find an answer, he thought of going \"out into the world\" - as the monks of the Holy Mountain say - in order to find appropriate people, to ask them, to have things explained to him.", "Every monk, and the Hagiorite monks in particular, give very strict vows to live in the monastery of their repentance, their tonsure.", "They are not to abandon the monastery and their abbot, as a rule, does not give permission, with few exceptions, for a monk to leave.", "Gerasimos the monk, who could no longer find peace, thought simply, monastically.", "He went to the icon of the Panagia to do his prostrations and to beseech her in prayer: He thought that if it is for his good to leave the Holy Mountain, upon requesting his permission, the Elder must give his blessing directly without hesitation.", "If he does not give his answer directly, or if he refuses, then this will mean that it is not the will of God to leave the Holy Mountain.", "This is what happened.", "The difficult Elder monk Chrysostomos Kartsonas, even though he had no other monk with him and he loved Gerasimos dearly, agreed to the request.", "But he agreed with the hope that his monk would soon return to him.", "The fact that he did not return soon created a sense of bitterness in the Elder Chrysostomos, who had the opportunity to see his monk again only after some thirty years, when Gerasimos was Bishop of Boston.", "### Theological Seminary - Corinth", "In early Spring of 1934 he left the Garden of Panagia, the Holy Mountain, filled with hopes of finding answers to his questions.", "Immediately, his inner struggle was linked with his interest in attending the Theological Seminary of Corinth, about which his brother George, a teacher, had spoken to him.", "As a monk, he owned little and had economic difficulties - he could not afford to attend the seminary.", "These were overcome by his father who provided some funds and by Metropolitan Damaskenos of Corinth who provided him with a small scholarship (from the Monastery of Panagia of the Rock of Nemea, where he had to be enrolled as a member of the monastic community for ecclesiastical reasons).", "There he began a six year course of study at the Theological Seminary of Corinth.", "To receive his diploma from the Seminary he went to the Seminary of Arta toward the end of the academic year 1938, where the present Archbishop Seraphim of Athens and all Greece also completed his studies and with whom they had maintained a friendship.", "It was a difficult and problematic situation for a young, but so mature, man to pursue studies surrounded by children ten or twelve years younger than he.", "This was the least of his problems.", "The diligence and the maturity of the young monk created serious problems for the professors.", "The monk sought a great deal; they offered a little.", "Often the tension in the classroom reached dimensions of significant proportions.", "It was only in music that the monk-student Gerasimos had no proficiency.", "His voice was weak and not very good.", "He read a great deal and he listened carefully, but he completed his studies with even a greater spiritual thirst.", "In the meantime, in June of 1935, Metropolitan Damaskenos of Corinth, ordained him to the diaconate.", "A coincidence, a divine sign he was ordained on the Feast Day of the Holy Spirit, and he gave up his spirit on June 12, 1995, on the Feast of the Holy Spirit, just after Fr. Alkiviadis Calivas, in the presence of friends and relatives, offered the Sacrament of Holy Unction and read the Prayers for the Dying.", "Gerasimos offered sixty full years of service in the Priesthood.", "### School of Theology - University of Athens", "The element of unsatisfied spiritual thirst simply and naturally guided him to the idea of attending a Theological School.", "He wanted to study there also with the hope that he would be initiated more deeply into the truth, for whose sake he would enter into many deprivations.", "It is difficult for one to accept this, but positions and official authority never interested him.", "He did not even care to have his theological degree from the University, which he, of course, received.", "He was completely indifferent to such things.", "When someone understands the absolute nature of this indifference, he also understand how and why Bishop Gerasimos of Abydos remained a monk of the Holy Mountain, and particularly of the Skete of St. Anna, while he lived and served in the great metropolitan cities of the two continents and in the great university centers of the world: Boston, Oxford, Munich, Athens.", "Given his advanced age, he prepared himself, nevertheless, for the introductory examinations to the School of Theology in Athens.", "He experienced some difficulties in the literary part of the examination, but had excellent results in the mathematical.", "He entered the School of Theology and began with greater zeal to follow the courses which were being taught during that era by such great professors as Nikolaos Louvaris, Hamilcar Alivizatos, Vasilios Vellas, Panagiotis Bratsiotis, Demetrios Balanos, Georgios Soteriou, Gregorios Papamichael, Vasilios Stefanides, Panagiotis Trembelas and Ioannis Karmires.", "From the beginning, Professor Louvaris became his favorite, perhaps because of his profound thought and thorough knowledge of philosophy, which distinguished him, and which he used to emphasize the value of the truths of faith.", "During this same period, other young men were studying theology and had distinguished careers later, such as Dionysios Psarianos (now Metropolitan of Kozani), Gabriel Kalokairinos (later Metropolitan of Thera), Makarios Kykkotis (later Archbishop of Cyprus), Silas Koskinas (later Metropolitan of New Jersey, U.S.A.), Basil Moustakis (author, poet) and Evangelos Theodorou (university professor of theology).", "Unfortunately, just as the most substantive courses of theology were about to begin, World War II broke out in October 1940.", "In addition to all the other misfortunes, the students missed out on their regular studies.", "For the rest of his lifetime, Gerasimos of Abydos would regret this loss, which he considered great, particularly since what he was doing he was doing for a more comprehensive understanding of the truth.", "This is why he always valued greatly the service of teaching, the oral lesson, when the professor would attempt, through various ways, to analyze and expand the horizons of learning.", "It is certainly not fortuitous that he himself loved to teach, and he loved it a great deal.", "While, as we said, he was indifferent to positions of authority, he had a great desire, from this time onward, to acquire the qualifications for teaching, to become a teacher, to speak all the more profoundly and convincingly about the simple and certain faith which he acquired experientially on the Holy Mountain.", "In the meantime, and even though he did not have an exceptional voice, he was assigned to serve as a deacon at the Church of St. Dionysios the Areopagite, in the center of Athens.", "### Ordination to the Priesthood - The Orphanage in Vouliagmeni", "The German occupation began and everything was overthrown.", "At the end of May 1941, with the breakdown of the front in the Greek-Bulgarian boundary, he was ordained - although he never considered himself worthy of it - a priest by Metropolitan Michael of Corinth.", "He now had the Priesthood for which he never considered himself worthy.", "However, he did everything that he could for an entire lifetime to honor it.", "At this point we must emphasize that even when he became a bishop in 1962, he believed steadfastly that the priesthood is one.", "He believed that the bishop has nothing more than the priest, being only an archpriest, the first among priests.", "Primarily the bishop has the particular charisma from God to ordain other priests.", "The bishop as a hierarch is naturally the leader of the priests, who also celebrate the sacraments as validly as the bishop, once they have received the priesthood, the Sacred Tradition of the Church.", "It is understood of course that the priests must be united in faith with the bishop, who in turn also has the faith of the whole Church.", "Once, when defending these opinions and explaining to me how and why he came these conclusions, he said: \"How does the Eucharist which I celebrate as a bishop differ from the Eucharist which a priest of my diocese celebrates?", "Since there is no difference, we have the same priesthood.\"", "At the beginning of the German occupation in 1942, Archbishop Damaskenos, who already knew and had helped him economically and morally and who continued to esteem him highly, appointed him to be Director of the Orphanage of Vouliagmeni.", "This responsibility offered nothing toward his profound theological aspirations.", "Those years, however, were so difficult that he felt obliged to accept the position.", "For three years, under terribly unfavorable conditions, he cared for the orphaned children not only to survive but also to experience some nurturing love.", "During the course of the war and the occupation, he helped many people to survive hunger and persecutions, while, at the same time, he pursued with his familiar thirst the meager spiritual activities of the period: lecture, lessons, meetings and conversations with spiritual people.", "Liturgical life with the tradition of the Holy Mountain constituted the strong foundation, while he sought further knowledge that would help him understand those things he believed.", "During the occupation, he often visited his professor Nikolaos Louvaris.", "He continued to do this even after the professor had been imprisoned at the end of 1944, because of his participation in the last occupational government of Athens (at the request of Archbishop Damaskenos himself to serve as Minister of Education for national reasons.", "Among these reasons was the extraction of a promise from the Germans to expel the Bulgarians from the Greek territories in the north.)", "### Chancellor of the Metropolis of Corinth", "Toward the end of 1945, Metropolitan Michael of Corinth offered him the position of Chancellor.", "With mixed feelings he accepted.", "He was concerned over this involvement in administrative matters, but being only thirty-five years old at the time he was daring enough to accept the post.", "He respected and highly esteemed his bishop Michael, who in turn loved and entrusted his Chancellor.", "Everything was going well, as long as he left most administrative matters in the hands of the secretaries of the Metropolis.", "The ecclesiastical environment of Corinth included traditionalists, who were attached to the forms without understanding their essence, as well as certain hyper-nationalists and some liberals.", "He himself avoided all extremes, emphasized the need for understanding the essence of things, and worked diligently to establish a balanced view.", "In particular he wanted to be close to the priests, to create harmony among them, to support them, to point out to them that they should not be involved in the politico-ideological battles of the opponents in the Greek Civil War.", "Of course, he already held the opinion that Communism was an evil not only because it denied Christ, but also because it did not really care about man, and therefore could not help him essentially.", "But he never justified the crimes of the anti-Communists either.", "During his years as Chancellor, when he was responsible for preaching and writing, he became more conscious of his limitations.", "This became clear to him in his capacity as the first co-worker of Metropolitan Michael in the publication of the periodical of that time The Apostle Paul, where he himself had to contribute articles and to publish, for the first time, some of his writings.", "It was then that he realized the demands and responsibilities of writing.", "He had become so sensitive to this awesome responsibility that, even though he wrote throughout his life and kept notes and expressed his opinions on paper, having composed entire commentaries on the books of the New Testament (on the Gospel of John, the Gospel of Mark, the Letters of St. Paul), including short articles on various theological and biblical subjects, only relatively few of them have been published: two complete volumes, a great many articles in periodicals and two additional texts - a book and a lengthy essay - are presently in the process of publication.", "The rest of his writings, gathered in five large cartons, still remain in manuscript form, not knowing yet what may be publishable.", "### Seeking Knowledge in Germany - The Study of Philosophy", "His thirst for deeper research and knowledge was growing.", "His idea for studies outside of Greece was also maturing.", "From his professors, and particularly from Professor Louvaris, he had come to appreciate German scholarship.", "Ecclesiastical leaders were recommending England or America to him.", "He refused.", "He was offered the position of priest of the Orthodox Church in Munich.", "He accepted.", "In September of 1947 he was ready.", "He had strange and conflicting emotions.", "He had come to know the evil side of the Nazi soldiers while at the orphanage in Vouliagmeni, where he and all the orphans had been forcefully expelled.", "The condition of post-war occupied Germany was then terrible: poverty, crime and uncertainty.", "Nevertheless, the professors and the writers who had survived began once again to work diligently and systematically - so characteristic of these people.", "Thus the Archimandrite Gerasimos, at the age of 37, embarked for Munich, Germany, without knowing any German.", "It was an adventurous trip.", "The occupation forces assigned him to a room and he began his work.", "It was the work of a pastor to a small trouble-filled congregation with many problems, and a systematic and extensive study of the German language.", "With patience and persistence he succeeded.", "What did he study in the capital of Roman Catholic Bavaria?", "When he began he planned to study the New Testament.", "And this is what he would say when asked at the Roman Catholic School of Theology at the university.", "In fact, however, he had spent more time studying Greek philosophy.", "He considered it essential to learn how the philosophers thought about the great questions of man - especially about the question of God.", "He was fascinated beyond imagination by these questions, and he would be constantly testing whatever it was they were seeking, attempting, and devising.", "It was clear that inquisitive spirit was still unsatisfied.", "All of these questions, immersed as he was in the Greek philosophers and especially Plato and Aristotle, inspired him and he appreciated them greatly.", "He appreciated this philosophical thinking so much so that he characterized an element of it as a propaedeia to Christianity.", "This is why his first book, the product of research of that period in Germany until the Spring of 1951, was given the title: Greek Philosophy as Propaideia to Christianity.", "This work was published in Athens in 1954.", "Toward this direction in his thought, he was influenced by the famous Romano Guardini, who theologized while philosophizing and created literature while speaking.", "Literature appears to have never drawn the attention of Gerasimos of Abydos.", "However, to theologize by following the successes or failures of philosophy interested him a great deal.", "It was something like an exercise for him to comprehend more deeply the truths of faith, which philosophy did not possess.", "This approach and point of view has something that is wisely contradictory.", "But he insisted until the end of his life that philosophy actually helped him.", "And this despite the fact that all of his writings after 1954 do not show that he indeed was helped by philosophy.", "Everything clearly constitutes a deeper penetration into the revealed truth of Sacred Scripture and Tradition.", "How philosophy actually helped him is known only to him.", "If we were to risk an interpretation of this fact, we would say the following: Gerasimos of Abydos, through his virtue of love and understanding for people, was able to appreciate any obscure or undeveloped formulations of the philosophers about God and man, in comparison to the truth, and as a spiritual man could show condescension for the failures of philosophers.", "Such failures, however, were for him occasions to marvel all the more the faith and the tradition which he had lived on the Holy Mountain.", "Moreover, he would always understand the historical journey of mankind, as well as divine economy itself, as a unified whole, in which he indirectly if not in expressis verbis included Greek philosophy.", "The intense and often successful - in minor issues - involvement of Greek philosophy with the great questions (something which had not yet been consciously and so deeply accomplished in world history) constituted a sort of preparation for man to come before the revelatory work of God and particularly that of the Incarnation.", "More concretely, he would emphasize throughout his life that we owe to philosophy our thirst for something higher, more sublime.", "It was philosophy that created in us the desire and brought us \"thirsty\" up to the point of the coming of Christ.", "And thirsty as we were, we \"drank\" from the living water of Christ and accepted Him.", "### Greece or America", "The sojourn in Germany was coming to an end.", "It was Spring of 1951 when the first invitations - completely unexpected - reached him to consider going to America.", "Metropolitan Michael was now Archbishop of North and South America and he wanted to have his former Chancellor, Gerasimos Papadopoulos, by his side.", "But things did not go well at first.", "He went first to Greece, where strong ecclesiastical personalities, such as Metropolitan Agathonikos of Kalavrita and Aigialeias, Metropolitan Prokopios of Corinth and others, wanted him to stay in Greece, promising to make him a metropolitan.", "While certainly not scornful of this latter prospect, he was not much moved by it.", "The then Archbishop Spyridon offered him the position of spiritual father at the large student dormitory of Apostolike Diakonia.", "He accepted this responsibility, which lasted for only one academic year, but this proved to be a wonderful year for the students.", "In most such religious programs at this time, a spirit of moralism prevailed.", "Archimandrite Gerasimos Papadopoulos, however, was kindling in the souls of the students a love for Christ and opening their wings for flights into the life of the Spirit.", "He believed most steadfastly that the opening of the wings of the students had the greatest significance.", "He believed that with outstretched wings they could fly and find their way, even with some diversions they would reach their goal, they would mature, they would experience the true Christ.", "On the contrary, without wings at all, or with folded wings, they would never be able to fly; they would remain spiritually weak and immature infants throughout their lives.", "And if I have understood him correctly, it is in this that the deeper reason lies for encouraging the students then to study and pay attention to the teaching of Louvaris.", "While disagreeing with him on many points, he nevertheless appreciated how his writings helped the students to spread their intellectual wings.", "He broadened, rather than narrowed, the ways of the Spirit.", "He appreciated his work as the spiritual father of the students and had determined to stay in Greece.", "### America - Holy Cross School of Theology", "Once again America beckoned.", "Archbishop Michael had not been disappointed.", "He sent a bishop to convince Gerasimos to come to America.", "He relented and accepted the invitation.", "Various communities were considered for him in some of the larger American cities.", "Fortunately these proposals were not successful and Archbishop Michael appointed him to be Professor of New Testament and chaplain at Holy Cross School of Theology in Boston, near some of the greatest universities of America.", "By July of 1952 he was in Boston.", "He had to prepare himself systematically.", "He worked most diligently in a super-human manner, doing research and preparing texts for the students to study.", "They in turn were not always well equipped and the work of teaching them was very difficult.", "He had no time, after all, for extensive scholastic literary, historical and critical analyses.", "He had to concentrate on the necessary, the basic, the essential elements.", "This was in harmony with his own character.", "He therefore drew and concentrated the interest of the students upon the presuppositions, the goal, the thought, the theology of the New Testament writings.", "The end result of this effort was the ease and depth of movement within the whole realm of the New Testament.", "Many of the proposals of the liberal interpreters of Protestantism he considered to be immature things.", "Once when they told him that Bultmann supported that the original order of the chapters in the Gospel of St. John was different, he responded like this: \"We cannot prove that the order was originally different.", "Bultmann supports another order of the chapters simply because with that order he understands John better and thus would have preferred the Gospel to have been written in that order.\"", "Such forms of criticism and the questions raised about Sacred Scripture by many liberal scholars tend to deny something in Scripture, rather than to help man to understand more deeply the truth.", "In the area of criticism he did not negate everything.", "For example, he agreed that a particular saying of the Lord could have been uttered originally in a somewhat different form.", "He believed, however, that for the Evangelist to record it, it was certainly uttered by the Lord and it constituted an essential aspect of the faith and the Tradition of the Church.", "It is a revelation.", "He attempted to comprehend revelation for himself and to make it understandable for the students by also using reason, to a certain degree.", "He held that Christian Faith possesses an inner logic and consequence which must be comprehensible.", "It was not an easy matter, yet he pushed on in that direction as much as he could, as much as it was permitted, after all, by the truth that is inexhaustible for us.", "As soon as he would reach the ends of logic or of his own capabilities, he would surrender himself completely to the declaration of Scripture, to its straight forward theology, to the \"so it is written.\"", "Any fantastic creation of new truths, that is, of another Christ, or a denial and a falsification of what we have in Scripture constitute a heresy.", "He only sought to go deeper into the divine truths, to attempt to know more profoundly the truths of Scripture.", "This is what he considered to be the goal of the exegete and of the theologian.", "He believed, however, that the exegetes and the theologians have difficulties in understanding the truth, primarily because we do not live as much as we should the life of Christ.", "If we surrender to Christ, then the Holy Spirit \"will guide you (us) into all the truth\" (Jn. 16.13-15).", "### Father \"G.U.L.F.\"", "His life at the Holy Cross School of Theology was not without difficulties.", "The spirit that motivated him was different from the spirit of the Dean, Fr. Ezekiel Tsoukalas, who had the unfortunate inspiration to name him sub-dean of the School.", "The conflicts were many.", "Archimandrite Professor Gerasimos refused to oppress the students through the school program.", "He confronted them with a different spirit.", "He would convince them to work, but freely, uncoerced.", "And the students would respond accordingly.", "They came to more than love Gerasimos, who quickly came to be known in the code language of the students as Fr. \"G.U.L.F.\" - the initial letters for Gerasimos, Understanding, Love, Faith.", "These were the perennial issues he discussed with them, and that's why they had become his code name for many years.", "With every opportunity and particularly at night his room would fill with students.", "There were never enough chairs and they would sit on the floor and in the hall.", "They made inquiries, carried on discussions, listened and were satisfied with much love and learning.", "It was what these young men were seeking, particularly in this situation, who would in two or three years be ordained into the priesthood.", "He lived for the students, no more no less.", "He worked to acquire knowledge and he prayed for God to give him perseverance.", "Thus he overcame the crises and the disappointments coming from the Dean, who reached the point of first depriving him of his position as Sub-dean and then asking for his removal from the School.", "The Dean did not succeed in his latter plan, much to the delight of the students, who lost no opportunity to express their esteem and devotion for their professor, \"Fr. G.U.L.F.\"", "This reaction served as the highest form of consolation for the professor, who found perseverance and persistence to continue the work of teaching and nurturing spiritually the students to the best of his ability.", "During his tenure at Holy Cross it was necessary to teach courses beyond his own field and to undertake even the entire administration of the School, as Acting Dean, which he did not particularly like.", "### Service to the Orthodox of America", "His popularity, which was simultaneously scientific and spiritual, passed beyond the boundaries of Holy Cross.", "Very soon he was invited and in demand for lectures, homilies, and director of retreat discussions in various cities of the United States.", "He gave particular attention himself to the New England Federation of Orthodox Students.", "It was the first environment, outside of the School, where he had been invited to confront certain critical issues - theological and social - but in a different manner than the one he had been exposed to at the University of Athens and later of Munich.", "Here the interests of the students, who came from various university schools, were of a more general character and were not contained strictly within the realm of theological subjects.", "The need to respond to such demands required him to be initiated into and to become conscious of the intense concerns of the people of the new world.", "These critical issues had their own presuppositions and, in their external signs, were very different from those Fr. Gerasimos knew in Greece and in Germany.", "Therefore, the speaker had to acquire as soon as possible a new inner private training, if he really desired to help these young people and if he indeed possessed the necessary capabilities.", "And he succeeded.", "This is why he was greatly esteemed in these circles, where he became a close friend of the well-known Russian theologian, Fr. Georges Florovsky, who also gave lectures in these same circles.", "This was only the beginning of his activity outside of Holy Cross.", "He extended himself to ever broader areas and to other metropolitan areas besides Boston.", "This activity often took the form of a series of lectures during spiritual retreats or of a series of Bible studies.", "This activity continued until the last winter of his life.", "He also pursued advanced studies at universities in Boston, receiving a Master of Theology in 1957 from Boston University.", "This grounded him and prepared him for the spiritual reality of the New World.", "This was his fourth and final stage of studies, which he continued with youthful zeal until his last breath.", "Of the three previous stages of studies, the first was accomplished on the Holy Mountain, the second at the University of Athens, and the third at the University of Munich.", "One must appreciate the presuppositions, the character, the depth and the breadth of each of these stages, if one truly wants to understand their assimilating spirit and their benevolent influence upon Gerasimos, the Bishop of Abydos.", "### The Reality of Orthodoxy in America", "How quickly he came to understand the problems of the new world is obvious also in the fact that only several months after his arrival in America, he dealt with courageous realism the great problem of Greek Orthodoxy in America, the problem of the Greek language.", "He not only spoke about it, but he also wrote about it, and declared openly that if we want to teach Orthodoxy to our children, if we want them to want to come to our Church, and especially if we want them to be consciously Orthodox Christians, we must speak to them in English, but without this to mean that we should abandon the Greek language.", "He took this position in 1952 and 1953, when no one would dare approach this dramatic problem among the great multitudes of diaspora in America.", "He favored the introduction of some English in the Liturgy from that time, yet he still insisted until his end that no matter how many decades pass, no matter how many changes take place, no matter how little the congregation understands the Greek language, a portion of the Divine Liturgy, even a small portion, must continue to be in Greek, in the language of Scripture and our ancient Tradition.", "The teaching ministry of our Church, however, must be in the language of the people.", "In order to more fully understand this, we must emphasize something else.", "In the innermost being of the Archimandrite Gerasimos of that period a real drama was unfolding.", "He, who had a real passion for the Greek philosophers and so loved their thought, was also and first of all a monk of the Holy Mountain.", "He experienced Orthodoxy upon its acropolis; he experienced it in the hearts of the ascetics, who lived consciously the Sacred Tradition of nineteen centuries of Orthodoxy.", "This is how Orthodoxy was planted into his deepest being.", "Orthodoxy led to salvation.", "Yet, Hellenism had also profoundly influenced his spirit.", "Fr. Gerasimos felt the obligation to give preference to one of the two.", "A violent inner struggle took place.", "He struggled to see if he could have both fully.", "It was impossible.", "He was disappointed and frustrated.", "The decision had to be made.", "The soul nurtured by the Holy Mountain took precedence.", "Salvation must come first, the Greek language can follow.", "Christian Orthodoxy is first, Hellenism follows.", "### Hierarch by Obedience", "At the end of 1961 Archbishop Iakovos insisted that Fr. Gerasimos become bishop for Detroit.", "Archimandrite Gerasimos refused for two reasons.", "He loved his teaching ministry at the School of Theology very much, which he considered to be suited for him and which he would have to abandon.", "Secondly, he felt that he had no calling for administrative work, which he would be obliged to carry out as bishop.", "The Archbishop, however, who esteemed him very much, both for his capabilities and for his spiritual life, did not give up on the idea.", "Months later, without telling Fr. Gerasimos anything, the Archbishop spoke to Patriarch Athenagoras.", "On April 6, 1962 the Synod of the Patriarchate elected Gerasimos as titular Bishop of Abydos.", "On the day after the election the Archbishop announced the news to Gerasimos, who chose not to say no to the voice of the Church.", "On May 20, 1962 he was consecrated in Boston and would serve as the Bishop of the Diocese of Boston.", "### Life as a Bishop", "His period of service in the Diocese of Boston would not continue for too many years.", "Certain difficulties in the Pittsburgh Diocese required the presence of Gerasimos of Abydos.", "As he began his ministry as a bishop, which continued administratively until 1977, he was fully aware of his own shortcomings, those of his flock and, naturally, those of his priests.", "He never liked absolute formulations, because they did not belong to the tradition, nor were they realistic.", "And in order to face the problems of the flock in an edifying manner, he followed a traditional principle: economia and flexibility on secondary matters, strictness on matters of faith.", "This principle he attempted to inspire into his priests, with whom he labored as co-workers.", "He had regular assemblies with them and - most importantly - he know how to listen to them, a prized virtue in a bishop.", "Thus he managed to be supportive in their difficult work as priests in the communities, to earn their trust and to make easier the solution of many problems.", "He did not have the slightest difficulty in saying to his priests that they, in their parishes, are the \"bishops.\"", "Naturally there were certain disagreements and conflicts.", "He was the bishop and had tremendous responsibilities, the primary responsibility, and often had to impose the opinion which he judged to be the correct one.", "But even this was always done with consultations, with discussion of the issues, so that it was not like some authoritative and autocratic imposition.", "His episcopal ministry both in Boston and in Pittsburgh was truly successful, since undoubtedly the flock and the priests considered him as their spiritual father, who wanted and could help them spiritually.", "He worked and behaved in such a way that all wanted to approach him and to confide in him.", "All knew that he had many things to offer on all the matters of the faith and the spiritual life.", "Yet, he never believed that his service was perfect, or that he had avoided mistakes.", "He considered his episcopal ministry to be a soft-spoken one.", "He did not try to impose his authority or impress people.", "He did not change or overthrow any existing conditions.", "He only wanted to help the people live more fully and more deeply their life in Christ, the life of the Church.", "In particular, he always tried to show the faithful the wonderful and saving majesty of the Divine Liturgy.", "During the synods of the Greek Orthodox Bishops of all America, under the presidency of Archbishop Iakovos, his presence was positive and edifying when he spoke and even when he did not speak.", "He had the prudence to listen with an open mind and to understand that, in general, the opinion of the Archbishop would prevail.", "But he also had the necessary courage and outspokenness to express his own opinion and to support what he believed to be correct, independently of any concerns that might be unpleasant.", "In such circumstance he never fostered ulterior motives nor a disposition to insult anyone.", "In all of his activities and various cooperative efforts with simple lay people, with officials, with priests, with fellow bishops and with the Archbishop he always sought to achieve a balance - a moderation in all things - which he managed to transform into what he himself would call reality.", "This realism presupposes the knowledge of what is ideally correct, the recognition of the limited capabilities and dispositions of people, as well as the pursuit of what is attainable.", "One who is spiritually advanced is never satisfied with merely what is simply attainable, but one accepts it with condescension, hoping that at least it will serve as a first step for further progress.", "### Interlude at Oxford and Return to Holy Cross", "In 1965, as Bishop of Boston, after continuous teaching and pastoral labors, he felt something like an inner emptiness.", "At the same time, he was seeking out great scholars to discuss certain important problems of theology in the New Testament.", "Moreover, he was seeking a brief period of relaxation, to set aside his pastoral responsibilities for the sake of relaxed theological discussions without interruptions.", "Thus, for several months he went to Oxford, England.", "He visited libraries and attended various lectures.", "But this was secondary.", "The significant thing for Bishop Gerasimos, who by now had 55 years upon his shoulders, was the opportunity to discuss at length with many - over ten - prominent professors and exegetes.", "He was prepared to listen, but was impressed because most of them were also prepared to listen to him.", "They were not Orthodox, but he was nevertheless interested in seeing how they thought about critical issues, about issues that perhaps they did not care to write about.", "Within his soul the Orthodoxy of the Holy Mountain prevailed absolutely, but he was prepared to accept some corrections in his thought about the person of Christ and the divine Economy.", "Most characteristic of his character and the degree of his spiritual life was his great love for discussions, concerning the person of Christ and the difficult theological issues related to the life of faith of the faithful.", "He did want to discuss other subjects, and had no interest in hearing what one is doing, how another was insulted, and other similar things.", "Until his very last days and hours, he wanted to discuss with passion only theological subjects, about \"our Christ,\" as he used to say.", "It is characteristic that in April 1995, after several months, professor and Metropolitan Demetrios of Vresthena, a person he esteemed highly, came to visit him.", "After the usual greetings about their health, the two bishops sat down because Bishop Gerasimos wanted to discuss and to ask questions.", "To the Metropolitan's inquiry, \"What shall we talk about, Geronta?\"", "Bishop Gerasimos responded: \"Why, about our Christ, of course, what else?\"", "Ultimately, Bishop Gerasimos was not enlightened in Oxford, as he would say, from the discussions which he enjoyed with the truly wise persons he had met there.", "He appreciated them, he relaxed and continued there, until certain problems at Holy Cross forced the Archbishop to recall him to Boston in a hurry.", "It was then that he was given the responsibility to be the Dean of the School of Theology, which he, of course, loved most dearly.", "Later, of course, other problems in Pittsburgh would require his peacemaking presence there.", "### Retirement", "At the age of 67, that is, in 1977, he retired from the administrative and pastoral responsibilities of the Diocese of Pittsburgh.", "He had asked to retire in 1976.", "He wanted to find time for writing and for spiritual cultivation.", "He always considered very little that which he had achieved internally.", "Finally, his retirement was accepted on June 19, 1977.", "What impressive coincidences!", "He was ordained a deacon on June 17, 1935, the day of the Holy Spirit; he gave his spirit on June 12, 1995 on the day of the Holy Spirit.", "The news of his retirement, for those who did not know him well, made an impression.", "He was still at the prime of his life, working many hours in the day, and people did not expect that he would retire.", "As a clergyman, a teacher par excellence, a writer, a reader and a spiritual father, this act of his was also perfectly understandable.", "And this is why for them the Bishop's retirement was a courageous act.", "This is why it was esteemed and marveled at from all sides.", "Moreover, everyone knew that Bishop Gerasimos was not seeking honors and authoritative positions, thrones and acclamations.", "But precisely because he did not seek thrones or authorities, he was truly enthroned in the hearts of the people.", "And he remained enthroned there, where he still is and will always be.", "In Pittsburgh, a farewell banquet was organized in his honor, and the greetings and farewell wishes expressed that evening", "constitute a monument of gratitude and profound estimation for the departing bishop.", "Representatives of the clergy and of the communities, of the national Greek-American Associations, and of the faithful people of the Diocese spoke most affectionately and with great admiration for their beloved bishop.", "Naturally, of course, the Archbishop also spoke to honor Bishop Gerasimos.", "Before, during and after the farewell banquet, Bishop Gerasimos felt various conflicting emotions: What had been completed in his life?", "Should it have come to an end?", "What was to begin now?", "Had forty-two years of intensive preparation and activity as a clergyman received their seal of completion, or would they find some worthy continuity?", "And what form will such continuity take?", "He had thought about everything a year before.", "Now, however, he was pressured emotionally by these thoughts.", "And the pressure was considerable.", "Most of all he was sad over his separation from the people he loved and who loved him.", "His consolation was that a new bishop, younger in years, would be able to offer more for them and would love them just as much.", "He believed that people ought not to grow too old in these positions.", "Immediately after his retirement, he traveled to Greece.", "He went back to the Holy Mountain.", "His cell at St. Anna was now in ruins.", "A thought he had about living there the rest of his life took flight when he looked upon his ruined cell and the little chapel, where he lived and prayed for four years in simplicity, with frugality - a characteristic virtue and mark of his entire life.", "At this point I shall describe an incident, over which I had a considerable internal debate regarding whether or not to record it.", "Because, however, it has been confirmed by an abbot of a monastery, I feel that I should mention it.", "The visit of Bishop Gerasimos to the Holy Mountain coincided with the feast day of the main church of the St. Anna Skete.", "As a bishop of the Ecumenical Patriarchate and a former monk of Mt. Athos, a few of the old monks who remembered him, particularly the monks of Fr. Chrysostomos Kartsonas, naturally, wanted him to celebrate the Divine Liturgy at the great festival of St. Anna.", "Bishop Gerasimos, however, because he had been living in America had a short, trimmed beard.", "This prompted some of the monks of the Skete to oppose his liturgizing because, they claimed, the people would be scandalized seeing him with a trimmed beard.", "When they clearly intimated their perplexity over this matter, Bishop Gerasimos dismissed it, giving it no thought at all.", "He simply went and stood in a back corner of the church as if nothing had happened, and he remained there from the beginning of the all night vigil until late the next day when the Divine Liturgy was celebrated.", "There, alone, without any distinctive signs, a stranger among strangers, he recalled his old monastic experiences and prayed as much as he could.", "It is the custom during the vigil of the feast day of St. Anna for the hesychast ascetics and hermit monks, who live a very austere monasticism in poor, isolated kalyves, far from the Sketes and Monasteries, to gather silently in the central church.", "After the liturgy, one of these ascetic monks approached two leading monks of the Skete and asked them: \"Who was that clergyman who stood in that corner stasidi?\"", "They explained to him that he was Bishop Gerasimos of Abydos, who had not been permitted to liturgize because he had trimmed his beard.", "Then the ascetic monk crossed himself and told them: \"What have you done?", "How could you?", "All night long I could see over his head a light like a dove, while over your heads there appeared something like little devils!\"", "I verified the information regarding this incident, and when I mentioned it to Bishop Gerasimos himself, he confirmed everything except the reference to a dove, about which he knew nothing.", "At first, after retirement, his thought was to settle somewhere in Greece.", "Arrangements had been made with me because we would have been staying together.", "He even had sent ahead a small portion of his books, since his destination was Greece.", "Deliberations had also been made for him to teach a few hours at the Rizarios Ecclesiastical School in Athens.", "### America Asks for a Spiritual Father", "While there were many signs indicating that Bishop Gerasimos would prefer to settle in Greece, and particularly in Athens, to be near the libraries, the clear and fervent voice of the Greek Orthodox faithful of America moved him and won him over.", "Messages would come to him in Greece, informing him that he was wanted and needed there in America.", "I remember how the now Metropolitan Silas (Koskinas) had come then to conjure me: \"Do not pressure your uncle to remain in Athens, we need him in America!", "We need a spiritual father to talk to, our priests especially and even we the bishops.\"", "I too had been shaken by all these urgent messages.", "But I had not yet understood how much the blessed Elder loved the Theological School of the Holy Cross.", "He submitted to the invitations of the people of America, but with the understanding that he would return to his beloved School, to teach according to his ability, living on campus but not being involved with the administrative responsibilities of the School, of the Diocese, or any other institution.", "### Again at Holy Cross - Teacher, Writer, Counsellor", "His terms were accepted.", "They sent him an urgent express letter.", "He obeyed the voice of the Church.", "He returned and took up residence in a typical student apartment, consisting of two small rooms.", "This happened on November 1977.", "There at the School, in a truly idyllic environment, on that verdant hill with innumerable trees, many of which he had planted himself and cared for dearly, Bishop Gerasimos lived another eighteen years as professor and counselor and spiritual father to the students.", "It was for this purpose that he had been invited to come back.", "In fact, the blessed Elder felt that he had never really left the School, but rather had lived there continuously since 1952, when he first came to America.", "Of course, he had served ten years as Bishop in Pittsburgh, but because he was always close to the School in spirit, he felt that he had never been absent from his beloved School on the hill.", "At the School, without seeking it, he became immediately the spiritual center.", "For four years he continued to teach with the load of a full time professor.", "Later he taught part time and then occasionally.", "For a few years it was necessary to teach the course in Dogmatics.", "He used to read and prepare himself with youthful vigor.", "He took advantage of this need of the School to study more profoundly for himself the Fathers of the Church, and to attempt to transmit their spirit to the students who would become priests in the future and would need to live with the help of the Fathers.", "### Study and Writing to the Very End", "It seems incredible, but in his retirement Bishop Gerasimos would work all day long.", "Until the very last days and hours of his life, he continued to read and to write, in spite of the fact that since the beginning of the 1980's serious health problems had appeared.", "A very serious case of septicemia had kept him for days in a state of aphasia.", "Later, problems appeared with his heart, which were treated with pills and patience.", "But the rhythm of his work was not interrupted.", "Even in the summer, during his vacation, he followed the same routine without losing any time.", "During virtually all of the summers after 1977, he traveled to Greece.", "And, of course, Greece meant primarily the village where he was born, Bouzi (now called Kyllini) of Corinth, Stymphalia, on the sides of Mt. Tzereia.", "He would spent about a week in Athens at the most and then he would go directly to Bouzi.", "There, again, during July and August, he would rise early and after his morning prayer, would begin his study immediately.", "He did the same in the afternoon until late.", "Whenever he arrived from America, he would seek out significant publications in contemporary Greek Orthodox theology, and particularly works of the Church Fathers commenting on biblical passages.", "He would not only read these books but would also take notes from them, marking in pencil important passages and whatever he considered useful to him.", "He had read and taken notes from virtually all of the significant works of the biblical scholars in the Schools of Theology of Greece.", "Parallel with this study, in spite of old age and the health problems of his heart and his feet, he did not neglect to serve the Liturgy in the various larger or smaller mountain towns.", "He never refused an invitation.", "He usually only refused to wear the episcopal miter during Liturgy.", "And so each summer the faithful in the mountain towns of Corinth looked forward with great anticipation for a visit from Bishop Gerasimos.", "During his years in retirement, Bishop Gerasimos devoted much time to teaching, but also to preparation of his very significant book, Orthodoxy, Faith and Life and a Greek edition in one volume, Orthodoxia - Piste kai Zoe, in Athens in 1987.", "This is not the place to analyze this work, but it should be noted that it sums up a very profound analysis and understanding of the work of divine economy for the salvation of the world.", "This particular analysis of the work of Christ surpasses in depth but also in simplicity many other parallel attempts.", "In this book an Orthodox bishop speaks about Christ and the Church, a bishop who for many years was a persistent researcher, who studied considerably the secular wisdom, who knew well the opinions of the heterodox, and - most importantly - he had been living the truth for fifty years in prayer and worship.", "Thus, the work presupposes knowledge and personal experiences and is written in order to edify the reader in a spiritual way.", "Whoever studies this book, regardless if one is a theologian or not, he will be filled with divine spirit and will be virtually incorporated into the Church.", "Following this book, Reflections on Our Christian Faith and Life was published in 1995, after Bishop Gerasimos fell asleep in the Lord.", "Another work on the eschatological faith of the Church will be printed in the very near future.", "The teaching and the writing work of Bishop Gerasimos drew, of course, the attention, the estimation and the admiration of professors, students and ecclesiastical circles.", "Moreover, during these eighteen years, the requests for lectures and Bible studies in various communities and university centers throughout the United States continued to come one after the other.", "Consequently, an ever widening circle of spiritual men and women and scholars were able to experience and appreciate the gift of the blessed Bishop Gerasimos.", "### The Abba of America - Living the Sacred Tradition", "But above and beyond all these things that have been related, the blessed Bishop Gerasimos was also something else: he was an Abba - a Father.", "He was a teacher to whom the young and the old would run at every difficulty with strictly theological issues.", "He was also the spiritual Father, the Abba, the comforter, the counselor.", "A whole world lived in the School and even a greater one far from it.", "But everyone knew that up there on the hill, a little beyond the chapel of the Holy Cross, there lived a wise and holy Elder.", "In his simple quarters he prayed and studied alone and was always ready to receive all.", "The very certainty that there lived such a man was itself a consolation.", "The students would pass by his window and would feel secure.", "From the central buildings and the classrooms the professors and administrators knew that at any difficult time the wise Elder had something prudent and helpful to say to them.", "The pain and the crossroads of life, the falls and the sins of spiritual people would take the path toward the room of the wise and holy Elder.", "Innumerable people, clergymen and laymen and laywomen, placed before him, again and again, the failures they experienced in their upward spiritual journey.", "He in turn would share their pain, but would also share their joy wherever they had succeeded well.", "With or without the stole over his neck, the blessed Bishop always served as an Abba, as a spiritual Father, as a Father confessor and comforter.", "And everyone - indeed everyone - would leave his cell always, more or less, strengthened and renewed in spirit.", "This work of the Elder, the Abba, was among the most burdensome and most difficult in the life of the Church.", "It staggers and empties the spiritual man who has profound sacred experiences and who possesses spiritual wealth that he readily offers to those who come to him.", "(People simply did not come to him who did not possess such a spiritual life).", "The blessed Bishop possessed such a spiritual life.", "He had it in abundance indeed, but he himself believed that it was poor, very poor.", "This is why until the very last hours of his life he continued to renew himself, to live with prayer and worship the truth, the mystery of Christ and of life, as he loved to remark.", "This was so because Bishop Gerasimos, although surrounded by the greatest universities of the world, lived with the daily prayer services as a simple monk.", "These nurtured him; through them he was \"rebaptized\" and lived.", "Early in the morning and every evening he was present, as in the old days on Mt. Athos, in the Chapel of the Holy Cross.", "And he loved to be the celebrant of the Divine Liturgy, as a simple priest, even more frequently than the young clergymen who loved to serve.", "It was enough for the students to see him in the Chapel without fail as an old man of so many years to be silently but consciously instructed, nurtured and edified.", "With or without saying it, they felt certain of the fact: the Tradition lives!", "Bishop Gerasimos was the Tradition!", "No one could tell them that the Tradition had been lost, that it was only in the past.", "They had the Tradition alive before them!", "This is the great contribution of the blessed Bishop.", "This is perhaps the reason why he had to live the faith and to continue his ascetic struggle in America, in \"our Theological School,\" as he loved to say.", "Taken from the book: Agape and Diakonia: Essays in Memory of Bishop Gerasimos of Abydos"], "meta": {"id": "test02919-1", "claim_title": "Abydos (Hellespont)", "claim_section": "Ecclesiastical history.", "claim_context": "The bishopric of Abydus appears in all the \"Notitiae Episcopatuum\" of the Patriarchate of Constantinople from the mid-7th century until the time of Andronikos III Palaiologos (1341), first as a suffragan of Cyzicus and then from 1084 as a metropolitan see without suffragans. The earliest bishop mentioned in extant documents is Marcian, who signed the joint letter of the bishops of Hellespontus to Emperor Leo I the Thracian in 458, protesting about the murder of Proterius of Alexandria. A letter of Peter the Fuller (471\u2013488) mentions a bishop of Abydus called Pamphilus. Ammonius signed the decretal letter of the Council of Constantinople in 518 against Severus of Antioch and others. Isidore was at the Third Council of Constantinople (680\u2013681), John at the Trullan Council (692), Theodore at the Second Council of Nicaea (787).

great masters.", "(The 2010 entry is here, and the 2011 one here.)", "Not surprisingly, during the intervening years, scholars have been busy researching Capellani's films and career.", "March 6 to 24 saw a major retrospective at the Cin\u00e9math\u00e8que Fran\u00e7aise.", "(Information on the program is still available online, as is a detailed press release.)", "Shortly before it began, the first biography appeared: Christine Leteux's Albert Capellani: Cineaste du Romanesque, with a foreword by Kevin Brownlow.", "Leteux discovered Capellani in May of 2012, thanks to seeing Notre-Dame de Paris and Les Mis\u00e9rables at the Forum des Images in Paris.", "Setting out to learn more about the filmmaker, she realized how thoroughly his memory had nearly vanished from film history.", "She sought out and received the cooperation of his grandson, Bernard Basset-Capellani, whom she describes as \"intarissable\" (inexhaustible) on the subject.", "The result is a solid, traditional biography, with chapters mostly organized around the companies for which Capellani worked (Pathe, SCAGL, World, Mutual, and so on) and some of his key films (Les Mis\u00e9rables, The Red Lantern).", "The prose style is easily readable French, at least to someone like me with an average knowledge of the language.", "For an interview with Leteux concerning the book, see here.", "The book is on sale at the Cin\u00e9math\u00e8que's shop, which unfortunately does not sell online.", "It was supposed to be available on Amazon.fr, but so far is not.", "The easiest way for those outside France to order it is through three third-party book-sellers on amazon.fr, all offering it at the cover price of 14.90 \u20ac.", "Leteux's book is a vital source for anyone interested in early cinema.", "I was pleased to see that the last chapter ends with some quotations from my second entry on Capellani, ending with \"With the end of the main retrospective, however, it is safe to say that from now on anyone who claims to know early film history will need to be familiar with Capellani's work.\"", "The book includes a filmography and list of films available on DVD.", "These include a new one, a restoration of The Red Lantern by our friends at the Cinematek in Brussels, available on Amazon.fr or directly from the Cinematek's shop.", "The French-language historical journal on cinema, 1895, timed its March, 2013 issue to coincide with the Cin\u00e9math\u00e8que's retrospective.", "It is entirely devoted to Capellani.", "I have not had a chance to see it yet, but the table of contents is available here.",

restoration and eventual inclusion in future editions of Il Cinema Ritrovato.", "She has sent me some tantalizing news about recent discoveries and restorations.", "There will be a third Capellani season in 2014.", "This will probably include some of the director's American films: Social Hypocrites (now restored), Flash of the Emerald (the one surviving reel), Inside of the Cup (surviving but so far with no projection print), Eye for Eye (two surviving reals), Sisters, and the French film Le Nabab.", "Other possible restorations include House of Mirth, La belle limonadiere, and Oh Boy!", "A description of the 2013 Ritrovato festival is available here.", "Nanook and friends", "Early this year we posted our annual list of the ten best films of ninety years ago.", "It featured the classic early documentary, Robert Flaherty's Nanook of the North.", "In March our friends at Flicker Alley released a two-disc Blu-ray edition of Nanook paired with the 1934 Danish feature, The Wedding of Palo (Palos Brudef\u00e6rd).", "The latter is one of those titles that one occasionally encounters on the fringes of older historical surveys, but it has been difficult indeed to see.", "This new print is a 2012 restoration from a George Eastman House original 35mm nitrate copy.", "Nanook is familiar enough, but The Wedding of Palo is not.", "It was made by the Danish explorer and anthropologist Knud Rasmussen, who appears in a brief introductory passage.", "Clearly he was influenced by Flaherty's work.", "He combines a simple fictional narrative with documentary scenes of traditional Inuit life in eastern Greenland.", "The basic story involves the heroine Navarona, whose brothers are reluctant to lose their housekeeper by allowing her to marry.", "Two men of the tribe court her and come into violent jealous conflict.", "Interjected are sequences of a salmon hunt, a festival, a traditional song duel between the two rivals, and a polar-bear hunt.", "The staged dialogue scenes involve sound recording, with no subtitles but the occasional brief intertitle to translate.", "As in Nanook, the non-professional actors are remarkably natural, especially the \"actress\" portraying the heroine.", "There is a cute young boy brought in at intervals for comic appeal, and the members of the village seem always to be laughing and enjoying a suspiciously carefree life.", "The film has the advantage of more spectacular scenery than that in Flaherty's film, with huge mountains and glaciers in place of the vast ice-covered vistas (see bottom image).", "As usual, the Flicker Alley team has gone beyond the call of duty with this release.", "It includes not only the two features, but six bonus films, as described in the press release:", "Nanook Revisited (Saumialuk) by Claude Massot was made in the same locations used by Flaherty.", "It shows how Inuit life changed in the intervening decades, how Flaherty consciously depicted a culture which was then already vanishing, and how Nanook is used today to teach the Inuit their heritage.", "Nanook Revisited was produced in 1988 on standard definition video for French television.", "Dwellings of the Far North (1928) is the igloo-building sequence of Nanook re-edited and re-titled as an educational film; Arctic Hunt (1913) and extended excerpts from Primitive Love (1927) are by Arctic explorer Frank E. Kleinschmidt; Eskimo Hunters of Northwest Alaska (1949) by Louis deRochemont shows many activities seen in Nanook thirty years after, and Face of the High Arctic (1959) depicts the ecology of the region, produced by the National Film Board of Canada.", "Altogether, the films run an impressive 281 minutes.", "There's also a booklet with excerpts from Flaherty's book, My Eskimo Friends, an essay by Lawrence Millman, \"Knud Rasmussen and The Wedding of Palo,\" and notes on the films.", "Snow White and the Seven (?) Bullfighting Dwarves", "In 2011, a French film, The Artist, gained huge attention in the infotainment media as a modern version of silent cinema, winning yet another Best Picture Oscar for the Weinstein brothers.", "It was a reasonably successful imitation of mid- to late 1920s cinema during the transition to sound.", "Now a much better modern silent film has arrived, Pablo Berger's Blancanieves, a loose version of the Snow White story transposed to 1920s Spain.", "A famous bullfighter is paralyzed after being gored in the ring.", "His wife dies in childbirth and his scheming nurse marries him.", "She keeps his daughter, Carmen, away from her father by setting her to work as a downtrodden servant in his country estate.", "Upon her father's death, the evil wife schemes to have her killed, and she escapes to the protection of a troupe of six bullfighting dwarves who, possessing uncertain arithmetic skills, bill themselves as seven bullfighting dwarves.", "While The Artist was a fairly good imitation of 1920s Hollywood filmmaking, Blancanieves is a pastiche of the 1928-29 era of European silent cinema.", "It draws on what I have termed the International Style of filmmaking, a late 1920s blend of influences from the French Impressionism, German Expressionism, and Soviet Montage movements.", "One could almost pass it off as a genuine film of the era.", "At times there are subjective effects \u00e0 la Impressionism.", "A superimposition conveys Carmen's memories of her father's crucial instructions to her, and superimposed images of hands waving handkerchiefs present the enthusiam of the crowd's plea for the bull to be pardoned.", "This was also the period in which the power of the wide angle lens, particularly in close-ups and in low-angle shots, was exploited, initially in Soviet cinema and then all over Europe.", "Blancanieves is full of such shots, as in the frame at the top of this entry and in these two shots from the opening scene:", "There are also montage sequences, building up to flurries of very short shots.", "This accelerated-editing technique is typical of both Soviet and French filmmaking of the era.", "The too-frequent use of handheld camera in Blancanieves detracts somewhat from the feeling of authenticity.", "In the late 1920s, cameras were too heavy to be handheld.", "They could be strapped to the body of the cinematographer with harnesses, but that creates a subtly different look.", "And during the late 1920s, shots with the camera holding on a character while the background spins around behind him or her would have been achieved by placing both camera and actor on a large turntable.", "(This effect apparently was pioneered in Germany in the mid-1920s).", "But the occasional dramatic lighting effects, particularly in the climactic scene, are distinctly reminiscent of German cinema.", "In general, the narrative is charming and amusing.", "The heroine's pet rooster provides exactly the sort of comic relief that is common in films of the 1920s, and the story has an effective fairy-tale quality.", "I found the ending a bit disappointing and certainly not typical of the films of the 1920s.", "Still, Berger has clearly watched an enormous number of 1920s European films and absorbed their styles.", "He can imitate the International Style remarkably well, telling a tale that is appropriate to the 1920s and yet has a touch of humor that doesn't belittle the silent era.", "Blancanieves was released in the US on March 29 and is currently making the rounds of art-houses and festivals.", "Other entries discussing the International Style and wide-angle filming at the end of the silent era can be found here and here.", "The Wedding of Palo", "Last Modified: Sunday | April 21, 2013 @ 20:29 open printable version", "This entry was posted", "on Sunday | April 21, 2013 at 8:29 pm and is filed under Art cinema, Directors: Capellani, Documentary film, Film comments, Film history, National cinemas: Denmark, National cinemas: Spain and Portugal, Silent film.", "Responses are currently closed, but you can trackback from", "your own site", "Comments are closed.", "have comments", "about the state of this website?", "go here"], "meta": {"id": "test04394-0", "claim_title": "The Inside of the Cup", "claim_section": "Film adaptation.", "claim_context": "In January 1921 a film adaptation of the novel was released, directed by Albert Capellani, and featuring William P.

bankrupt.", "Becker, now 49, was declared bankrupt on Wednesday over undisclosed sums of money he has owed to the London-based private bankers Arbuthnot Latham & Co, since October 2015.", "And it must have come as little comfort to him that the judge who handed down the ruling reminisced over seeing him in action on Wimbledon's Centre Court.", "Boris Becker stretches to make a diving backhand return during the Men's singles semi final at Wimbledon in July 1985", "Credit:", "Bob Martin/Getty Images", "Following the bankruptcy declaration Becker's remaining assets and property will be disposed of to pay his creditors.", "There is also the possibility they will seek any earnings he makes as a commentator at next month's Wimbledon Championships to be used as payment towards his

lack of evidence backing up Becker's claims that the remortgaging of his current Majorcan property would shortly go ahead and enable him to pay his debts.", "Ms Registrar Derrett concluded, \"with a degree of regret\", that there was a lack of credible evidence that his \"substantial\" debt would be paid soon and she refused to adjourn the case for a further 28 days.", "Agreeing to make an immediate bankruptcy order, the judge said: \"I am not persuaded on the evidence before me that it can be described as credible evidence.\"", "\"It is not often the case that a professional person has a judgment (debt) outstanding against them since October 2015.", "This is a historic debt.", "Ms Derrett added of the former champion: \"One has the impression of a man with his head in the sand.\"",

champion Boris Becker declared bankrupt", "To a generation of tennis fans he will always be 'Boom Boom' Becker, the explosive young German who won the men's singles title at Wimbledon three times - the first in 1985 as a mere 17-year-old.", "But after a sparkling tennis career, followed by one as a TV pundit for the sport, he has now added a rather less than glorious chapter to his CV, that of bankrupt.", "Becker, now 49, was declared bankrupt on Wednesday over undisclosed sums of money he has owed to the London-based private bankers Arbuthnot Latham & Co, since October 2015.", "And it must have come as little comfort to him that the judge who handed down the ruling reminisced over seeing him in action on Wimbledon's Centre Court.", "Boris Becker stretches to make a diving backhand return during the Men's singles semi final at Wimbledon in July 1985", "Credit:", "Bob Martin/Getty Images", "Following the bankruptcy declaration Becker's remaining assets and property will be disposed of to pay his creditors.", "There is also the possibility they will seek any earnings he makes as a commentator at next month's Wimbledon Championships to be used as payment towards his debts.", "The Bankruptcy and Companies Court heard that Becker, who has a home in Wimbledon, had offered to remortgage his \u20ac6 million property (\u00a35.2m) in Majorca as part of a deal to pay off the debt.", "John Briggs, Becker's advocate, told the bankruptcy judge, Christine Derrett, that it was expected the deal would be approved by a Spanish bank in around a month.", "\"I don't want to play around in court.", "It is clearly in the interests (of Arbuthnot Latham) for there to be refinancing,\" said Mr Briggs.", "Becker, who was the youngest player to win the men's singles championship and went on to win it again in 1986 and 1989, was once estimated to be worth upwards of \u00a3100 million.", "But Mr Briggs conceded: \"He is not a sophisticated individual when it comes to finances.\"", "Indeed Becker's abilities when it comes to financial matters have not been on a par with his skill on the court.", "Boris Becker, the German former tennis player", "Credit:", "EPA/JASON SZENES", "In 2001 he was landed with divorce and paternity settlements totalling more than \u00a320 million to his first wife, Barbara, and Angela Ermakova, the Russian model who had his baby following an encounter in the broom cupboard of a London restaurant.", "The following year Becker received a two-year suspended sentence for tax evasion and was ordered to pay \u00a32.5 million in back tax, fines, and costs after claiming Monaco as his main residence while spending much of his time in Munich.", "Then in 2011 the Dubai property development to which he had lent his name, the Boris Becker Business Tower, went bust.", "Trials and triumphs | Boris Becker", "And in 2012 a Spanish court judge ordered a house Becker had built for him in Majorca should be auctioned to pay a debt of \u00a3225,000 he owed a local landscape gardening company.", "In a separate civil court hearing, also in Palma, a judge ordered him to hand a further \u00a3345,000 to a local building firm that complained its bills for carpentry, electrical and plumbing jobs, and the laying of a basketball court, also went unpaid.", "Yesterday Arbuthnot Latham's barrister Matthew Abraham argued there was a lack of evidence backing up Becker's claims that the remortgaging of his current Majorcan property would shortly go ahead and enable him to pay his debts.", "Ms Registrar Derrett concluded, \"with a degree of regret\", that there was a lack of credible evidence that his \"substantial\" debt would be paid soon and she refused to adjourn the case for a further 28 days.", "Agreeing to make an immediate bankruptcy order, the judge said: \"I am not persuaded on the evidence before me that it can be described as credible evidence.\"", "\"It is not often the case that a professional person has a judgment (debt) outstanding against them since October 2015.", "This is a historic debt.", "Ms Derrett added of the former champion: \"One has the impression of a man with his head in the sand.\"", "When she was told during the hearing that Becker was now a television commentator, Ms Derrett replied that she knew perfectly who he was, adding: \"I remember watching him play on Centre Court, which probably shows my age.\"", "But even her memories of seeing Becker in his prime were not enough for her to allow for what his lawyers described as \"a last chance\" to pay the debt.", "When Mr Briggs
