Irish Pride, Dash of Politics, at St Patrick's Parade 

【Move to another page】

Irish Pride, Dash of Politics, at St Patrick's Parade  A new, troublesome topic hovered over the St. Patrick's Day parade in New York this year: Britain's failed Brexit deal with the European Union that could squeeze Ireland's economy.     But nothing could put a damper on the largest American celebration of Irish heritage on Saturday, with tens of thousands of marchers following a painted green line up Fifth Avenue for the six-hour procession.      Spectator Kevin Coughlan, 27, wearing pants with four-leaf clovers, captured both the New York celebration and the political near-catastrophe overseas, where he still has plenty of family — in Ireland.      ``I've always been so proud to be an Irish-American, and that's what today is about. It's more than just one big party, it's about celebrating our freedom,'' said the Hoboken, N.J., resident.     His mood darkened when he turned to Brexit, which ``is definitely something we're all worried about, especially my family,'' he said. ``I mean, we're all sort of just waiting for the shoe to drop to see what this means for the Irish economy.''   But, he added, ``We can get through anything; we survived a potato famine.''   Immigration theme    This year's official parade theme was immigration, with Brian O'Dwyer, an immigration attorney and activist, as the grand marshal. He's a co-founder of the Emerald Isle Immigration Center in Queens that helps clients including a group of Latino immigrants that joined O'Dwyer on Saturday.      Through its history, dating back more than 250 years, the New York parade has often had a political element. In the 1970s and 1980s, as sectarian violence flared in Northern Ireland, there were controversies over the inclusion of groups supporting the militant wing of the Irish Republican Army. A banner reading ``England get out of Ireland'' has flown in the parade since the 1940s.    And for more than two decades, LGBTQ groups were officially banned from marching, until 2015, when marchers under a banner linked to NBC were first allowed in, opening the doors to other LGBTQ participants since then.      This year's march is taking place amid a new set of questions about relations between the United Kingdom and Ireland.   ``When the Irish take to the streets this Saturday for the 258th St. Patrick's Day Parade, our thoughts will take us far beyond the festivities on Fifth Ave. to Washington, D.C., and to the British Parliament in London,'' O'Dwyer wrote in an editorial in the Daily News.    British lawmakers are struggling to find a way to exit the European Union without disrupting the two-decade old peace accords that created an open border between the Republic of Ireland, which is in the EU, and Northern Ireland, which is in the United Kingdom.    This week, with a March 29 deadline looming, British lawmakers voted to seek to delay Brexit for at least three months. But the possibility exists that the line between the two parts of Ireland, which has been unguarded for 20 years, will again become hardened with vehicle checkpoints, with trade rules and tariffs in force.    ``It is pretty ironic that we're celebrating Irish freedom and unity over here, while they're debating the Irish border over there,'' said paradegoer Chris Mahan, 56. ``All of my cousins are still back in the old country, as we call it. They still don't know what Brexit will mean for them, for their economy and yea, even their unity as a nation.''   For most, a celebration    But for most at Saturday's parade, the political debate over the future in Ireland took a back seat to the pageantry.     ``For me, today is so important because after all the suffering and all the tragedy, we came through. We're here and we're healthy,'' Carol McNiff said, a third-generation Irish-American.      ``St. Patrick's Day is about memories, for me. A proud heritage,'' said Cathy Dwyer, 61. The Queens resident has been coming to the parade since she was a young girl. ``I'd say my fondest memory was watching my husband march in this parade. And then watching my kids march. One of the proudest moments of my life.''      Popular marching groups include the pipe-and-drum corps for the Emerald Societies at the New York police and fire departments and the 1st Battalion, 69th Infantry Regiment of the New York Army National Guard, which has led off the parade since 1851.    Elsewhere in the U.S., the largest St. Patrick's Day parade in the South was held in Savannah, Ga.. Started by Irish immigrants to Georgia's oldest city 195 years ago, the March parade has ballooned into a sprawling street party that's the No. 1 tourist draw for Savannah.    ``Savannah's like a bad drug,'' said Bruce Souers, a Savannah native who's been attending parades for five decades, as he sipped Jameson Irish whiskey from a plastic cup. ``Once it's in your blood, you can't get rid of it.''    Over in Chicago, the river there was dyed green, a tradition that dates back decades. Thousands line up to watch members of Chicago Plumbers Local 130 dump and spray the dye into the river from boats.

Slovakia Could Get Its First Woman President in Ballot

【Move to another page】
Quote
https://ift.tt/2FeUYeR
Slovakia Could Get Its First Woman President in Ballot Slovakia could get its first woman president as voters elect a new head of state on Saturday. The leading contenders are Zuzana Caputova, an environmental activist who is in favor of gay rights and opposes a ban on abortion in this conservative Roman Catholic country, and Maros Sefcovic, an establishment figure who is the European Commission Vice-President. In all, 13 candidates are vying to become the country's fifth head of state since Slovakia gained independence in 1993 after Czechoslovakia split in two. Andrej Kiska, a successful businessman-turned-philanthropist, is not standing for a second five-year term in the largely ceremonial post. His term in office was marked by clashes with former prime minister Robert Fico, considered a populist leader. Kiska supported the huge street protests that led to the fall of Fico's coalition government amid a political crisis triggered by the slayings last year of an investigative reporter and his fiancee. The reporter, Jan Kuciak, was investigating possible widespread government corruption and Italian mob influence. If no single candidate wins a majority on Saturday, a runoff will be held on March 30 in this central European nation of 5.4 million people. What's at stake The president has the power to pick the prime minister, appoint Constitutional Court judges and veto laws. Parliament can override the veto with a simple majority, however. The government, led by the prime minister, possesses most executive powers. The favorites  Zuzana Caputova Caputova, a 45-year-old lawyer, is a rising star of Slovak politics. She became known for leading a successful fight against a toxic waste dump in her home town of Pezinok near the capital of Bratislava, for which she received an international environmental prize in 2016. She was also part of a campaign in 2017 that led to the annulment of pardons granted by former authoritarian prime minister Vladimir Meciar. She is deputy chairman of "Progressive Slovakia," a non-parliamentary party that supported the massive street protests after Kuciak's death. Maros Sefcovic A career diplomat, 52-year-old Sefcovic was a member of the Communist Party before the anti-Communist 1989 Velvet Revolution. Sefcovic accepted an offer to stand from Fico's left-wing Smer-Social Democracy party, a dominant political group in Slovakia in recent years whose reputation has been tarnished by corruption scandals.  Other notable candidates Stefan Harabin A former justice minister and chief judge of the Supreme Court, 61-year-old Harabin was a close ally of Meciar, whose rule in the 1990s was marred by repeated flouting of the law. A populist, Harabin exploits the fear of migration and presents himself as a guardian of traditional conservative values. As a vocal opponent of the sanctions against Russia for its actions against Ukraine, Harabin is a favorite candidate of pro-Russian media. Marian Kotleba The 42-year-old heads the neo-Nazi People's Party Our Slovakia, which has 14 lawmakers in the 150-seat Slovak Parliament. Kotleba and his party speak admiringly of Slovakia's time as a Nazi puppet state during World War II. Party members use Nazi salutes and consider NATO a terror group. They want Slovakia to leave the military alliance and the European Union. What's ahead Caputova and Sefcovic are predicted by polls to be the two candidates to advance to a runoff. But the last polls allowed were published two weeks before Saturday's ballot. Analysts say there's a room for a surprise result, particularly for Harabin who was running third in the polls.

Ethiopian Crash Investigators Find Parallels to Doomed Indonesian Jet

https://ift.tt/2T95Kam
Ethiopian Crash Investigators Find Parallels to Doomed Indonesian Jet Aviation investigators have found a piece of a stabilizer in an unusual position in the wreckage of the Ethiopian airliner that crashed Sunday, killing all 157 people on board. Sources familiar with the incident are saying that the position of the stabilizer was similar to that of Indonesian Lion Air jet that crashed last October. The plane's flight data and voice recorders have arrived in France for analysis. Satellite-registered data have shown that Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 and Lion Air Flight 610 planes flew with erratic altitude changes - moving up and down by hundreds of feet - indicating that the pilots struggled to control the aircraft. Both crews asked permission to return to the airports from where they had departed. Both accidents involved new Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircrafts. The U.S. and more than 30 other countries have grounded Boeing 737 Max fleet after the Ethiopian air disaster, which killed all 157 passengers and crew on board. Similarly, the Lion Air killed all 189 passengers and crew on October 29. About 5,000 Boeing 737 MAX 8s are on order, signaling the industry likely faces a financial struggle ahead.

[[File:Made by Rebecca Scattergood Savery, American - Sunburst Quilt - Google Art Project.jpg|thumb|''Sunburst Quilt'' by Rebecca Scattergood Savery, 1839, in the collection of the Philadelphia Museum of Art]]
'''Rebecca Scatterbrook Savery''' (1770–1855) was an [[United States|American]] [[quilt]]er. She is associated with six quilts produced between c. 1827 and c. 1852.

The daughter of John and Elizabeth Head Scattergood, Savery was born into a family that had lived in [[Philadelphia]] since the late seventeenth century. Her father-in-law was the chairmaker [[William Savery]], formerly an apprentice of [[Solomon Fussell]]; her husband was the cabinetmaker [[Thomas Savery (cabinetmaker)|Thomas Savery]].<ref name="Wertkin2004"></ref> Together the couple raised five children.<ref name="Newell2014"></ref> The Saverys were active in the Philadelphia Yearly Meeting of the [[Society of Friends]], and it is assumed that Rebecca conformed to the traditional roles and practices ascribed to Quaker women of her era. Three of the quilts ascribed to her are made in the Sunburst pattern; the other three are Friendship quilts, which were made in a group. All use English roller printed cotton fabric and wool batting, and the Friendship quilts are marked with 175 names, as well as with a series of inked drawings.<ref name="Wertkin2004"/> All but one appear to have been created during her widowhood, when Rebecca was in her 50s and 60s.<ref name="Newell2014"/>

Savery is best known for the sunburst-patterned quilt which she produced in 1839 for her granddaughter Sarah Savery, born that year; measuring nine feet by nearly ten feet and containing almost four thousand diamond-shaped pieces, each about four inches long, it is currently owned by the [[Philadelphia Museum of Art]], in whose quilt collection it is the central piece.<ref></ref> A similar quilt, with a similar provenance, is in the collection of the [[Winterthur Museum]] and Library,<ref name="Wertkin2004"/> which also holds a collection of documents related to the Savery family.<ref></ref> A third quilt in the pattern is held by the [[American Folk Art Museum]].<ref></ref> One of the Friendship quilts is in the collection of the [[International Quilt Study Center & Museum]].<ref></ref>

Africa-United States relations

Rjensen: /* Pre-1940 */ Booker T. Washington


'''Africa-United States relations''' covers the diplomatic relationships between the United States and the independent African countries, with some information on political, economic and cultural ties.
== Pre-1940==
Before [[World War II]], the United States dealt directly only with the former American colony of Liberia, the independent nation of [[Ethiopia]], and the semi-independent nation of [[Egypt]].
===Liberia===

U.S. relations with Liberia date back to 1819, when the US [[United States Congress|Congress]] appropriated $100,000 for the establishment of Liberia.<ref name="statedeptprofile">Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref> The United States officially recognized Liberia in 1862, 15 years after its establishment as a sovereign nation, and the two nations shared very close diplomatic, economic, and military ties until the 1990s.

The United States had a long history of intervening in Liberia's internal affairs, occasionally sending naval vessels to help the Americo-Liberians, who comprised the ruling minority, put down insurrections by indigenous tribes (in 1821, 1843, 1876, 1910, and 1915). By 1909, Liberia faced serious external threats to its sovereignty from the European colonial powers over unpaid foreign loans and annexation of its borderlands.<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>

President [[William Howard Taft]] devoted a portion of his First Annual Message to Congress (December 7, 1909) to the Liberian question, noting the close historical ties between the two countries that gave an opening for a wider intervention:

:"It will be remembered that the interest of the United States in the Republic of Liberia springs from the historical fact of the foundation of the Republic by the colonization of American citizens of the African race. In an early treaty with Liberia there is a provision under which the United States may be called upon for advice or assistance. Pursuant to this provision and in the spirit of the moral relationship of the United States to Liberia, that Republic last year asked this Government to lend assistance in the solution of certain of their national problems, and hence the Commission was sent across the ocean on two cruisers.<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>

In 1912 the U.S. arranged a 40-year international loan of $ 1.7 million, against which Liberia had to agree to four Western powers (America, Britain, France and Germany) controlling Liberian Government revenues for the next 14 years, until 1926. American administration of the border police also stabilized the frontier with Sierra Leone and checked French ambitions to annex more Liberian territory. The American navy also established a coaling station in Liberia, cementing its presence. When World War I started, Liberia declared war on Germany and expelled its resident German merchants, who constituted the country's largest investors and trading partners – Liberia suffered economically as a result.<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>

In 1926, the Liberian government gave a concession to the American rubber company [[Firestone Natural Rubber Company|Firestone]] to start the world's largest rubber plantation at [[Harbel]], Liberia. At the same time, Firestone arranged a $5 million private loan to Liberia. In the 1930s Liberia was again virtually bankrupt, and, after some American pressure, agreed to an assistance plan from the [[League of Nations]]. As part of this plan, two key officials of the League were placed in positions to ´advise´ the Liberian government.
===Others===
In 1901, the [[Tuskegee Institute]], a state college in Alabama directed by the national Black leader [[Booker T. Washington]], sent experts to the German colony of Togo in West Africa. the goal was to introduce modern agricultural technology in order to modernize the colony, basing its economy on cotton exports. <ref> Andrew Zimmerman, 'Alabama in Africa: Booker T. Washington, the German empire, and the globalization of the New South'' (Princeton UP, 2010).</ref>

Penile ultrasonography

Penile ultrasonography

Mikael Häggström: Copied from CC-BY article


'''Penile ulltrasonography''' is [[medical ultrasonography]] of the [[penis]]. Ultrasound is an excellent method for the study of penis, such as indicated in trauma, priapism, erectile dysfunction or suspected [[Peyronie's disease]].<ref name="FernandesSouza2018">Originally copied from:<br><br>[[Creative Commons|CC-BY]] license</ref>

Ultrasound is an imaging modality that, in addition to being well tolerated and widely available, is considered an excellent method for the evaluation of many penile diseases. Penile trauma, priapism, Peyronie's disease, and erectile dysfunction are some of the conditions in which penile ultrasound finds significant applicability.<ref name="FernandesSouza2018"/>

Currently, linear transducers have a maximum frequency of 12-15 MHz, which increases the definition on ultrasound images. Although penile evaluation is usually performed when the penis is flaccid, in some situations, such as in cases of erectile dysfunction, the examination should be performed during erection, by injection of vasoactive drugs into the corpora cavernosa. The penis should be positioned in the anatomical position (over the abdomen) and evaluated in the transverse and longitudinal directions, from the glans toward the base of the penis. In specific situations, such as in the evaluation of Peyronie's disease, the penis should also be positioned on a towel/sheet or on the testicular sac, with a lateral approach.<ref name="FernandesSouza2018"/>

==Anatomy and physiology==
[[File:Normal penis ultrasound.jpg|thumb|Figure 1: Normal penile anatomy, dorsal and cross-sectional view showing two hypoechoic images corresponding to the corpora cavernosa, with an echoic line that surrounds them and corresponds to the tunica albuginea.]]

[[File:Longitudinal ultrasonography of the penis.jpg|thumb|Figure 2: Longitudinal section of the penis under right lateral access. Note the cylindrical structure, corresponding to the corpus cavernosum (thick arrow), in the superior portion and the corpus spongiosum (thin arrow), adjacent to the corpus cavernosum, in the inferior portion.<ref name="FernandesSouza2018"/> ]]

The corpora cavernosa are homogeneous and relatively hypoechoic cylindrical structures lined with tunica albuginea, a thin membrane that has a thickness of approximately 2 mm when the penis is flaccid and 0.25 mm when it is erect. The corpus spongiosum, a ventral, medial body that is more echoic than the corpora cavernosa, is also covered by the tunica albuginea and contains the urethra. As can be seen in Figures 1 and 2, it is more dilated and prominent in its proximal segment, known as the bulb, and in its distal segment, constituting the glans. Buck's fascia is superficial to the tunica albuginea and covers all of the structures described.<ref name="FernandesSouza2018"/>

Venous drainage is performed by the deep and superficial dorsal veins of the penis. The dorsal arteries of the penis are located adjacent to the deep dorsal vein and a cavernous artery is located in the center of each corpus cavernosum. On color Doppler, the cavernous arteries present single phase flow. In the flaccid penis (Figure 3), the normal cavernous arteries show a systolic peak between 11 and 20 cm/s. At the beginning of erection, the systolic and diastolic flows undergo progressive increases. When vein occlusion begins, the diastolic flow decreases progressively, and once stiffness is established, it becomes negative.<ref name="FernandesSouza2018"/>

==Penile trauma==

Penile trauma can result from a blunt or penetrating injury, the latter being rarely investigated by imaging methods, almost always requiring immediate surgical exploration. In the erect penis, trauma results from stretching and narrowing of the tunica albuginea, which can undergo segmental rupture of one or both of the corpora cavernosa, constituting a penile fracture.<ref name="FernandesSouza2018"/>

In the ultrasound examination, a lesion of the tunica albuginea presents as an interruption in (loss of continuity of) the echoic line representing it (Figure 4). Small, moderate, or broad hematomas demonstrate the extent of that discontinuity. Intracavernous hematomas, sometimes without the presence of a tunica albuginea fracture, can be observed when there is a lesion of the smooth muscle of the trabeculae surrounding the sinusoid spaces or the subtunical venular plexus.<ref name="FernandesSouza2018"/>

</gallery>

In 10-15% of penile traumas, there can be an accompanying urethral lesion(4). When blood is observed in the urethral meatus, contrast-enhanced evaluation of the urethra is necessary. In cases in which the ultrasound findings are inconclusive, the use of magnetic resonance imaging can facilitate the diagnosis and is recommended by various authors.<ref name="FernandesSouza2018"/>

==Priapism==

Priapism is defined as a painful and prolonged penile erection, with or without sexual stimulation. Color Doppler ultrasound is the imaging method of choice for the investigation of priapism, because it is noninvasive, widely available, and highly sensitive. By means of this method, it is possible to diagnose priapism and differentiate between its low- and high-flow forms.<ref name="FernandesSouza2018"/>

[[File:Ultrasonography of traumatic arteriovenous fistula of the penis.jpg|thumb|Figure 5: Color Doppler ultrasound demonstrating a hypoechoic collection that corresponds to hematoma with arteriovenous fistula secondary to traumatic injury of the penis due to impact with bicycle handlebars, resulting in high-flow priapism.<ref name="FernandesSouza2018"/> ]]
Low-flow (ischemic) priapism is a urologic emergency in which there is inadequate venous drainage, resulting in hypoxia, ischemia, and tissue acidosis, which can in turn result in fibrosis and erectile dysfunction. A number of causes have been described, including sickle cell anemia (most common in children), leukemia, and other blood dyscrasias (such as thalassemia and multiple myeloma), and the use of various licit or illicit drugs, as well as neoplasms. On Doppler, the flow in the cavernous arteries is reduced or absent. As the condition progresses, there is an increase in echogenicity of the corpora cavernosa, attributed to tissue edema. Eventually, changes in the echotexture of the corpora cavernosa can be observed due to the fibrotic transformation generated by tissue anoxia.<ref name="FernandesSouza2018"/>

High-flow priapism is not considered an emergency, because patients are at lower risk of permanent sequelae. It is associated with blunt trauma to the perineum or penis, with laceration of the cavernous artery, which can generate an arterial-lacunar fistula. In the Doppler study, one can observe normal or increased, turbulent blood flow in the cavernous arteries. The area surrounding the fistula presents a hypoechoic, irregular lesion in the cavernous tissue, as depicted in Figure 5.<ref name="FernandesSouza2018"/>

==Peyronie's disease==
Peyronie's disease is characterized by fibrotic thickening of the tunica albuginea, which can lead to curvature of the penis and difficulty in achieving an erection. Penile fibromatosis (Peyronie's disease) is marked by the formation of fibrous plaques identified as areas where the tunica albuginea is thickened. Although plaques are more common on the dorsum of the penis, they can also be seen on the ventral face, lateral face, or septum.<ref name="FernandesSouza2018"/>

[[File:Ultrasonography of orpus cavernosum calcification.jpg|Figure 6: Transverse ultrasound of the penis, in a ventral view, in the middle portion of the penis. Note the echoic image with posterior acoustic shadowing, corresponding to calcification (arrow), in the left corpus cavernosum.<ref name="FernandesSouza2018"/> ]]

The typical finding on ultrasound is hyperechoic focal thickening of the tunica albuginea. Due to associated calcifications, the imaging of patients with Peyronie's disease shows acoustic shadowing, as illustrated in Figures 6 and 7. Less common findings, attributed to earlier stages of the disease (still mild fibrosis), are hypoechoic lesions with focal thickening of the paracavernous tissues, echoic focal thickening of the tunica without posterior acoustic shadowing, retractile isoechoic lesions with posterior attenuation of the beam, and focal loss of the continuity of the tunica albuginea.(5). In the Doppler study, increased flow around the plaques can suggest inflammatory activity and the absence of flow can suggest disease stability. Ultrasound is useful not only for the identification of lesions but also to determine their relationship with the neurovascular bundle. Individuals with Peyronie's disease can present with erectile dysfunction, often related to venous leakage, due to insufficient drainage at the site of the plaque.<ref name="FernandesSouza2018"/>

[[File:X-ray of corpus spongiosum calcifications.jpg|thumb|Figure 7: [[Projectional radiography]] ("X-ray"), penetrating the soft parts of the penis, showing radiopaque images that correspond to calcifications in the corpora cavernosa (arrows).]]

==Erectile dysfunction==
Most cases of erectile dysfunction of organic causes are related to changes in blood flow in the corpora cavernosa, represented by occlusive artery disease, most often of atherosclerotic origin, or due to failure of the veno-occlusive mechanism. Preceding the ultrasound examination with Doppler, the penis must be examined in B mode, in order to identify possible tumors, fibrotic plaques, calcifications, or hematomas, as well as to evaluate the appearance of the cavernous arteries, which can be tortuous or atheromatous.<ref name="FernandesSouza2018"/>

[[File:Ultrasonography of dilated penile sinusoids during erection.jpg|thumb|Figure 8 Transverse ultrasound image, ventral view of the penis. Image obtained after induction of an erection, 15 min after injection of prostaglandin E1, showing dilated sinusoids (arrows).<ref name="FernandesSouza2018"/> ]]

Erection can be induced by injecting 10-20 µg of prostaglandin E1, with evaluations of the arterial flow every five minutes for 25-30 min (Figure 8). The use of prostaglandin E1 is contraindicated in patients with a predisposition to priapism (e.g., those with sickle cell anemia), as well as in those with an anatomical deformity of the penis or a penile implant. Phentolamine (2 mg) is often added. Visual and tactile stimulation produces better results. Some authors recommend the use of oral medication (sildenafil citrate, 50 mg) to replace the injectable drug(s) in cases of contraindications, although the efficacy of such medication is controversial in the literature(9,10).<ref name="FernandesSouza2018"/>

Prior to the injection of the chosen drug, the flow pattern is monophasic, with low systolic velocities and an absence of diastolic flow. After injection, it is expected that systolic and diastolic peak velocities will increase, decreasing progressively with vein occlusion and becoming negative when the penis becomes rigid (Figure 9). The reference values vary across studies, ranging from > 25 cm/s to > 35 cm/s. Values above 35 cm/s indicate the absence of arterial disease, values below 25 cm/s indicate arterial insufficiency, and values of 25-35 cm/s are indeterminate because they are less specific (Figure 10). The data obtained should be correlated with the degree of erection observed. If the peak systolic velocities are normal, the final diastolic velocities should be evaluated, those above 5 cm/s being associated with venogenic erectile dysfunction.<ref name="FernandesSouza2018"/>

C: Increased systolic flow and reverse diastole 25 min after injection of prostaglandin.<ref name="FernandesSouza2018"/>

Flow of the cavernous arteries at 5, 15, and 25 min after prostaglandin injection (A, B, and C, respectively). Note that the cavernous artery flow remains below the expected levels (at least 25-35 cm/s), which indicates erectile dysfunction due to arterial insufficiency.<ref name="FernandesSouza2018"/>

'''Paul-Alfred Parent de Curzon''' (7 September 1820, Moulinet, [[Migné-Auxances]] - 4 July 1895, [[Paris]]) was a French painter, known for his [[Genre art|genre]] scenes and landscapes with figures.

== Biography ==
He was born to an aristocratic family. His grandfather was General . His older brother, Emmanuel (1811-1896), was a noted sociologist. In 1838, he attended the [[Salon (Paris)|Salon]] and saw '''' by [[Eugène Delacroix]]. It made such an impression on him that he took up the study of [[pastels]] and decided to become a painter.<ref name="I">[https://ift.tt/2H9M58w "Galerie Contemporaine, Alfred de Curzon (1820 - 1895), peintre français"] @ IberLibro</ref>

In 1840, he enrolled at the [[École des beaux-arts de Paris]] and studied with [[Michel Martin Drolling]]. He had his début at the Salon in 1843. Upon the advice of one of his classmates, Louis Georges Brillouin (1817-1893), he switched to the landscape painting classes of [[Louis-Nicolas Cabat]] in 1845. Four years later, he produced his first major work, ''The Death of [[Milo of Croton]]''. This enabled him to obtain a stipend for two years of study in Rome. There, he made the acquaintance of [[Alexandre Cabanel]].

In 1852, he made an extensive tour of Greece, in the company of the writer, [[Edmond About]], and the architect, [[Charles Garnier (architect)|Charles Garnier]]. Thereafter, Greek antiquities would play a major role in his work.<ref name="I" /> In 1865, he was named a Chevalier in the [[Legion of Honor]].<ref>[https://ift.tt/2HtV6bV Documentation] @ the ''[[Base Léonore]]''</ref> He was awarded a first-class medal at the [[Exposition Universelle (1867)]].

Life of Musicians in Ming China

Life of Musicians in Ming China

Jrr023: I wrote this article because I felt that it is important to know about the lives of workers, and I did not feel that what I wrote fit into any existing articles.


Musicians in [[Ming dynasty|Ming China]] had a diverse status, with many musicians having low social positions. At the same time, musicians could also enjoy great status, like in the case of the emperor [[Hongzhi Emperor|Hongzhi]] who was very well known for being a proponent of music<ref></ref>. Most musicians however, were not part of imperial or gentry family and Ming music culture was characterized by four distinct but closely interrelated subcultures. These were the court, literati, religious, and commoner music subcultures<ref name=":0"></ref> . The lives of these different types of musicians were incredibly different, but songs were a shared art form that demonstrated the ideals of both the elites and commoners<ref name=":1">Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>.

== Elite Musicians ==

=== Literati ===
Officials in Ming China used Confucian philosophy in their music playing, and by playing the [[Qin (instrument)|qin]] the [[Scholar-official|literati]] would better themselves morally with the end goal being to better serve society<ref name=":2">Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>. [[Taoism|Taoists]] played the qin to become enlightened individuals and become one with nature<ref name=":2" />. Furthermore, qin music was not a form of music that was used by the literati to make money, in essence qin when played by the literati was elevated from the same position most other music had, and it occupied a special role in the lives of these learned officials<ref name=":2" />. Some officials even considered playing virtuousically to be a negative as it took away from the profoundness of playing the qin.<ref name=":3">Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref> The musiking of the literati led to the foundation of music centers in cities around China, like [[Beijing]], [[Nanjing]], [[Suzhou]], or other cities where many scholars visited or lived.<ref name=":0" /> These music centers created their own musical subcultures as well, showing how diverse music was in Ming China.<ref name=":0" />

=== Emperor ===
The emperor along with their subjects shaped the music culture of Ming China.<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref> When emperors used their music to become a part of court institutions and cultural traditions, their rule would become more powerful, like in the case of [[Hongwu Emperor|Emperor Hongwu]] who directly shaped the foundation of Ming court music.<ref name=":0" /> Hongwu Emperor set up four court music offices with the help of his subjects. These four music offices were the State Sacrificial Music Office, the [[Eunuch#Ming dynasty|Eunuch]] Music Office, the Entertainment Music Office, and Palace Women Music Office.<ref name=":0" />

== Common Musicians ==

=== Soldiers ===
During the Ming period soldiers were often expected to play music in processions when the Emperor would travel. These soldiers were used by the emperor to demonstrate his power. By having many soldiers following him, the Emperor would put himself in a position of power and the soldiers would be lost in the crowd, being a backdrop for the Emperor rather than being an individual musician exploring their art like the Literati<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>. Being a musician for the military did not change their profession, soldiers were expected to protect the emperor while acting as musicians for the procession.<ref name=":3" />Unlike the Literati, soldiers would play loud instruments like drums and horns rather than delicate instruments like the qin. Their music would be characterized by being very rhythmic and loud in order to show off the qualities of a strong man that they were expected to have.<ref name=":1" />

=== Professional Qin performers ===
Unlike the Literati who played the qin, those who made their living off of performing aimed to make the audience feel the beauty, excitement, and emotion of the music.<ref name=":4">Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref> These professional performers compiled and wrote their own pieces for the qin which are still being played in modern times.<ref name=":4" /> Although these professional qin players had a different philosophy to music, they still interacted with the Literati. In fact, the Literati often had professional Qin performers as their teachers whom they learned all about the qin from.<ref name=":4" /> Furthermore, through interacting with the literati these commoner musicians learned the arts that the literati practiced and they also learned to follow the same philosophy.<ref name=":5">Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref> However, due to the prejudice towards those who used music to make a living these commoner musicians were not well respected by their employers, the literati.<ref name=":5" />

== Female Musicians ==
While Confucian scholars disregarded female musicians as improper and they had a disdain for their work, in actuality female musicians were able to rise in the occupation like their male counterparts.<ref name=":6">Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref> Many folk songs are credited to female musicians and were included in the [[Classic of Poetry|book of odes.]]<ref name=":6" /> Young gentry girls learned to play the qin from their fathers and teachers.<ref name=":7">Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref> In 1530 [[Jiajing Emperor|Shizong]] Emperor commanded blind female singers to sing the value of female virtues to female virtues to his court ladies<ref name=":7" />. Female musicians were respected, but not allowed to fill the offices of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices because proper music was a male and courtly jobs<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>. To the common man however, female musicians were very well respected and because their music was more interesting than the music of rituals and the state<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>

Cambodian Farmers Struggle Against Changing Climate

【Move to another page】

https://ift.tt/2C9dhAc
Cambodian Farmers Struggle Against Changing Climate Built atop the bones of the dead, Trapaing Thmar reservoir is largest irrigation project built by the Khmer Rouge regime. Today, it is running dry amid one of the worst droughts to hit Cambodia in living memory. In northwestern Cambodia, more than 400 kilometers from Phnom Penh, the vast protected area serves as a crucially important source of water for thousands of rice farmers and their families in Phnom Srok district and other neighboring areas. Trapaing Thmar reservoir is also the habitat of numerous endangered species, including the Sarus crane, the world's tallest flying bird. During a recent visit to the area, farmers were fishing and pumping water to their rice fields from a scattering of small ponds, all that remains of the more than 12,000-hectare reservoir. ​Lack of rain, wet season or dry In this part of Banteay Meanchey province, farmers remark on the lack of rain, during the wet season as well as the dry season. Cambodian farmers grow rice in both seasons. Cambodia's rainy season typically arrives in May and ends in October and dry season runs from November until April. "It is not like before. It is worse than ever," said Ping Chantrea, a 30-year-old farmer who adds she can no longer produce enough rice to sell. "It only rained twice during the wet season last year," she laments from her home in Ponley commune's Porabun village, a concern echoed by others. "Early this year until now, it has not rained at all," said Chantrea who is eight months pregnant. "I lost the money I saved from my wedding," she added. ​Rice production falls Farmers in this district have complained that production of rice in both rainy and dry seasons has declined.  Another farmer, Laing Thom, says he believes the temperature is rising and the rains are no longer as regular as they once were. "Now it is just only about 8 a.m., but it is very hot," Thom said. Cambodia has been ranked among the Southeast Asian countries most vulnerable to climate change, according to a report by Asian Development Bank. Many of Cambodians rely on agriculture, and the changes to the country's climate lead to more droughts or more floods. According to UNDP statistics, 22,695 Cambodians out of every million were impacted by natural disasters in the country between 2005 and 2012, especially by flood and drought. Flooding in 2009, 2011 and 2013 led to more than $1 billion in damage and 461 fatalities. Thom says he cannot produce as much rice on his 2.6-hectare farm. "I can't make a profit, or even cover the cost of fertilizer," he said, complaining of price manipulation. Farmers expect to sell their rice for at least 18 to 20 cents per kilogram, but it has been sold at a lower price. ​Only one rice crop On Feb. 20, Prime Minister Hun Sen, citing the drought, asked rice farmers to plant only for the wet season harvest. "Please farm only one crop this year because we do not have enough water," Hun Sen told thousands of workers in Kandal province, adding that Cambodia will face a severe drought and water shortages this year. In a directive dated Jan. 17, Hun Sen called on local authorities and villagers to conserve water for crops because Cambodia will likely be indirectly impacted by El Niño, which refers to a short-term period of warm ocean surface temperatures in the Pacific Ocean, stretching from South America towards Australia. Cambodia will also grapple with soaring temperatures of between 40 and 42 degrees Celsius in April and May. Lim Kean Hor, minister of water resources and meteorology visited the Trapaing Thmar reservoir area Feb. 23, and told Phnom Srok villagers that by farming during the dry season, they had acted against Hun Sen's directive. "They have farmed more than the plan allowed. They were allowed to farm only a total of 5,000 hectares of land," said the minister, adding "we lack water" until an anticipated break in mid-May. Impact on farmers Drought has now affected more than 20,000 hectares of rice fields in 13 provinces, according to Cambodia's National Committee for Disaster Management. In 2015, Cambodia experienced its worst drought in half a century, with most of its 25 provinces experiencing water shortages, and about 2.5 million people severely affected. Mean Seum, chief of Chantrea's Porabun village, said an estimated 10 percent of the normal amount of rice will be produced this year. "Mostly they owe money to microfinance [institutions] and other people," he said. "The debt will be more." Since April 2017, the interest rates on new loans from MFIs and rural credit operators was set to a maximum of 18 percent. Prime Minister Hun Sen said that the MFIs and credit operators previously offered loans with interest rates of 20 and 30 percent per year. "If it is worse like that in the future, parents will migrate to work in Thailand or children will be forced to work," he added. "There is no family in this village whose members don't go to Thailand," he said, adding that the migrants work in construction or agriculture. Normally the migrant workers return to help their families with the harvest.  "But they won't come this year," he added. Seum himself has three hectares of land and rents two hectares for farming. But he cannot break even in the current climate, he said. "People also get angry with each other because some families get water for their rice fields and some don't," he added. Families who live closest to Trapaing Thmar are the ones who get the water supply for their crops. Thousands of families Em Dara, the technical assistant at the Ministry of Water Resources, who oversees the reservoir, said about 5,000 hectares of land have been affected so far. "It has affected thousands of families," he said. "Some don't have water to use now." "It has affected species and fish in the reservoir as well. The climate has changed now. It is the worst in 10 years," he said. The reservoir can store up to 180 million cubic meters of water, but now holds less than 1 million cubic meters, according to Dara. Villagers are also concerned about the impact on fish stocks, which nationwide provide a living for millions of Cambodians and up to 80 percent of all animal protein in the diet. "There is no water. This year is worse than other years," said Mea Siz, 58, as he fished at Trapaing Thmar reserve. "I am now concerned about fish here." Taking a chance Having land to farm crops, especially rice, is central to the lives of many Cambodians. It is what gives them a sense of security, community and family. Eighty-five percent of Cambodia's approximately 16 million people depend on subsistence agriculture for their livelihoods. Despite being aware of the water shortage, farmers in this district say they have decided ignore Hun Sen's directive and farm through the dry season. "I could not make do with just the rice farmed during rainy season, so I decided to go ahead in the dry season, but it was not successful," Chantrea said. "I thought that the water in the reservoir was enough, but it was not because many farmers have done farming at the same time and the water is insufficient," she added. Deu Yuch, another farmer, says the poor farming conditions have led him to fall behind. He reckons he's about $3,000 in debt. "I don't know what to do, but will keep growing rice in the next season," he said. "We have no choice. We have to take a chance." Some parts of the community have been provided water from an irrigation system built by Chinese investors. The water has been transported from nearby provinces Siem Reap and Oddar Meanchey, according to Khut Khuon, Poichar commune chief. Khut Khuon Poichar says farmers will pray for rain during Choul Chhnam Thmey, the Cambodian New Year, celebrated from April 14 to 16 this year. "We will ask the Buddha to give rain," he said. ​As the drought continues to blast the countryside, Chantrea says she is worried that it will get worse and she will not have enough water to farm in the wet season. "What can I do? I have to take the chance to do it," she said. Farmer Laing Thom said villagers would attend a New Year ceremony to seek help from Tevada, a host of guardian angels central to Cambodians' traditional spiritual belief system. "We are farmers, if we don't do farming, what do we have to eat? So I take a chance with Tevada. I pray to Tevada to bring rain so it will be cold and have water," Thom said.
