getgid, getegid - get group identity
Linux Kernel - 3.80
getgid() returns the real group ID of the calling process.
getegid() returns the effective group ID of the calling process.
These functions are always successful.
The original Linux getgid() and getegid() system calls supported only 16-bit group IDs. Subsequently, Linux 2.4 added getgid32() and getegid32(), supporting 32-bit IDs. The glibc getgid() and getegid() wrapper functions transparently deal with the variations across kernel versions.

Ahead of NASA’s conference where it will reveal a “major science finding” of what has been discovered on the red planet, Mars, several people are speculating that the discovery will confirm that Earth is not the only home to life.
Nevertheless, it is believed that NASA has discovered flowing water on Mars. For its announcement, the space agency has selected a collection of top authorities and other notable personalities from American universities as part of its panel. The key note speakers will include Jim Green, Director of Planetary Science, and Michael Meyer, lead scientist for the Mars Exploration Program. Also present as part of the conference will be Ph.D. candidate in planetary science at Georgia Tech, Lujendra Ojha, who discovered possible flowing salt water on the surface of the red planet in 2011.
The then 21-year-old Ojha, a student at the University of Arizona, eliminated visual distortions from the images of Mars acquired through satellite; comparing the changes of the images over a period of time, he discovered streaks that, as he later found, were dried salt left behind by saltwater streaming on Mars’ surface.
“When I first saw them, I had no idea what it was. I just thought it was a streak made by dust or something similar,” he said, as reported by CNN. The possibility of flowing water on Mars is supported by Matthew Chojnacki, planetary geologist at the University of Arizona. In a blog post, he writes of the streaks discovered by Ojha as “narrow, dark-toned streaks that descend steep Martian slopes, beginning in higher-lying rocky outcrops.”
Chojnacki further wrote, “They grow fast, over timescales as brief as a week. Their seasonal behaviour and preference for warm equator-facing slopes suggests that something volatile, like briny water, could be involved.”
Manual Nigel Watson, author of UFO Investigation Manual, said he hoped that NASA will announce that we are not alone in the universe. According to the Journal Telegraph, he said, “For the more conspiracy minded they might wonder if NASA will announce that one of the many artefacts or structures seen in pictures sent back to Earth is real, or that they have found some form of alien base.”
He further added, “That would be a massive intellectual and philosophical bombshell for humanity to cope with, though the odds of this, to use the words of Wells, is likely to be ‘a million to one’.” However, he also said that the possibility of finding water on Mars is more probable. “When I first heard about NASA’s forthcoming announcement I immediately wondered if they had found some form of microscopic life there,” he said. “It seems more likely that they have found water on Mars, which is the next best thing as it would indicate the possibility that life has clung onto this planet or existed there in the past.”
The last time that NASA held a similar conference was when they announced the discovery of Earth-like planet Kepler-452b, according to NEWS.com.au.

(MENAFN- ProactiveInvestors - UK) Summit Therapeutics PLC (NASDAQ: SMMT LON: SUMM) is to present further data showing the superiority of its new antibiotic for hospital superbug C.Diff over the standard of care medicine.
The additional data on Summit's ridinilazole versus vancomycin comes from the from the Phase 2 CoDIFy trial and will be heard at the 26th European Congress of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (ECCMID).
Taking the antibiotic ridinilazole resulted in a marked reduction in rates of C-Diff recurrence as compared to vancomycin (14.3% versus 34.8%) the drug discovery firm will say.
This result comes on top of the previously reported statistical superiority in 'sustained clinical response' rates of ridinilazole over vancomycin (66.7% compared to 42.4%) for treating the disease.
Sustained clinical response is defined as clinical cure at the end of treatment and no recurrence of the condition in 30 days after therapy.
C. diff is a serious threat in hospitals and care homes and there are between 450000 and 700000 cases in the US annually.
Recurrence is a key problem as repeat episodes are typically more severe and associated with an increase in mortality rates and healthcare costs.
Summit shares were unchanged in London at 96p each.

The research presented in this paper was performed to evaluate and compare the influence of four types of secondary reinforcement for temperature and shrinkage on the strength and behavior of composite slabs with a variety of loading conditions and span configurations. The four types of secondary reinforcement were welded wire fabric (WWF), and three types of fibers. The tests included three-span composite slabs, with the steel deck continuous over the three spans but with no negative moment reinforcement used, subjected to a uniformly distributed load, and simple span slabs subjected to point and line loads. In conjunction with the slab tests, the flexural toughness and first-crack strength of the fiber-reinforced concrete mixes were determined using the ASTM C1018 standard test. The performance of the specimens reinforced with fibers is compared with that of the specimens reinforced with WWF. Test results indicate that the strength, failure mode, crack initiation, and propagation, and load–deflection behavior are not greatly influenced by the type of secondary reinforcement in the composite slab.

Just another silly question that may deserve a wise answer.
closed as off-topic by Eliran, Jishin Noben, Conifold, Dan Hicks, Mark Andrews Feb 21 at 18:25
This question appears to be off-topic. The users who voted to close gave this specific reason:
- "While this question may be related to philosophy or occur in a philosophical context, the question itself doesn't seem to be about philosophy, and is therefore not a good fit for our site." – Eliran, Jishin Noben, Conifold, Mark Andrews
According to Wikipedia a flat universe would have this property:
Zero curvature (flat); a drawn triangle's angles add up to 180° and the Pythagorean theorem holds...
This is not the case for the round Earth which has positive curvature on its surface:
Positive curvature; a drawn triangle's angles add up to more than 180°...
The spherical objects in the universe may make it appear bumpy from a local perspective. From a more global perspective one would view the universe as flat having zero curvature even though those spherical objects within the universe have positive curvature.
"Shape of the universe" Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shape_of_the_universe
Flatness or non-flatness of the universe is an issue concerning the large scale structure of the universe, more precisely a question about the curvature of spacetime.
Roundness of the earth and of other cosmic bodies is a local phenomenon due to the gravity of rotating bodies.
Here's a similar question: if this sheet of paper is flat, can the circle drawn on it be round? And the answer is yes. Of course.

Nevada residents who are creating an estate plan may want to consider setting up an IRA trust for their retirement account. An IRA trust can protect an account from creditors. It can also specify how distributions are made to beneficiaries. This may be useful if the beneficiaries are likely to be irresponsible with money or if they are very young. For example, a person who inherits a retirement account at the age of 18 or 21 may not know how to effectively manage money.
Other types of retirement plans, such as 401(k)s, have different rules associated with them, but they can also have an IRA trust as a beneficiary. Another consideration in making the beneficiary of an retirement plan an IRA trust is its worth. If the retirement account is worth more than $500,000, an IRA trust might be important for asset protection.
A person may choose between a conduit trust and an accumulation trust. With the former type, the trust essentially acts as a conduit with distributions going into the trust and then to the beneficiary. The latter type of trust allows distributions to accumulate. Trusts have costs attached to both setup and maintenance, so it is worth weighing their benefits against them.
People who are creating an estate plan may want to talk to an attorney about their goals. Trusts can be powerful tools for accomplishing a variety of different objectives. Many people may be aware of trusts as only being appropriate for wealthy familiesh, but trusts have a number of other uses as well. For example, trust planning may be a way to provide assistance for special needs relatives and give to charity.

Toys R Us accepting video game trades
Shoppers can visit the service desk at any Toys R Us store to find out what how much they can get for their used games. Credit will be issued in the form of a Toys R Us gift card that can be used to make purchases at Toys R Us, Babies R Us and online at ToysRUs.com.
While Toys R Us is just the latest retailer to enter the used video game buying market, it does seem to be buying the biggest selection of video games. Not only can you trade in titles from the Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and Nintendo Wii but if you come across a box of Atari 2600 games in the attic they'll buy them too! You can even trade in your copy of BurgerTime for the decades old Intellevision and your Mario Bros. cartridge from the original NES.
While Toys R Us is buying your used games don't go looking for a used copy of Madden 2010 for purchase in the video game aisle since Toys R Us won't be selling the games in store but rather selling them to a third party.
Before you trade in games at any store you'd be well served to look out for specials on trades that can add up to 25% to your trade-in value. For example, GameStop's trade-in offers page currently lists a 25% bonus on games traded in toward Modern Warfare 2, Batman Arkham Asylum, Halo ODST.
This is a convenient way to trade in old games and since you can get anything from more games and toys to diapers and baby clothes it could offer a better deal to people who need something other than a copy of Halo ODST. Happy gaming!

The orange roughy (Hoplostethus atlanticus) is of the genus Hoplostethus and belongs to the Trachichthyidae (the slimeheads) family. It is in the Beryciformes order.
The fish is found in the eastern Atlantic Ocean, western Pacific Ocean and off the coasts of Chile. They are usually found in waters 590 to 5900 ft (180 to 1800 m) deep. The fish is particularly prevalent in Morocco, Iceland, Namibia, Australia and New Zealand.
While the size of the orange roughy is not unusual, its lifespan is. Scientific studies indicate the fish has a lifespan of 149 years. However there are some fishermen who dispute this claim.
In spite of its name, the fish has a brick red color. When it dies, the color turns into a yellow-orange. The fish is noted for being very late to mature. The fish has a deep body. Its head is notable for the various muciferous canals, which is usual for slimeheads.
These canals are actually a component of the lateral line system. The fish has one dorsal fin with 6 spines. There are about 18 soft rays on it. There are 10 to 12 soft rays on the anal fin. It has three spines.
Whatever the size of the orange roughy is, there is always between 19 to 25 ventral scutes. The pectoral fins range from 17 to 20. The fish has a forked caudal fin and has a bluish black interior mouth. The gill cavity is also bluish black. The lateral line has 28 to 32 scales. The fish is also noted for its big eyes.
The fish tends to move sluggishly and they are often found in groups. The groups can be seen along seamounts or underwater canyons. They can be seen in areas where there is mixing and water movement.
The fish like these places because there is plenty of prey available. Research indicates the orange roughy goes on feeding / active and inactive phases. The pigmentation is lost when the fish is not active.
Diet and Predator
The orange roughy feeds on euphausiids, shrimp, amphipods and zooplankton. They will also consume smaller fish and crustaceans if available. Their natural enemies include the mackerels, sharks, snake mackerels and cutthroat eels.
Their eggs measure 2.25 mm. It takes about 10 to 20 days for the eggs to hatch. The fish is one of the slowest growing in existence. It will reach maturity after 20 or 30 years. It is mainly due to the very slow maturity process that has made it difficult to repopulate the species.
The size of the orange roughy, coupled with its slow maturity, made it an easy prey for fisheries during the 1970s. Its population dwindled and in many areas it has been almost completely wiped out.

If you have ever owned a Papillon, you already know what friendly, happy, and energetic dogs they can be! They are most oftentimes recognized because of their adorable ears that stand up straight!
Papillon ears are some of the most unique among dog breeds because they resemble a butterfly shape; However, this breed’s ears have slowly changed over time in many ways, including their shape and size.
In this article, we will talk about all things Papillon ears! Including ear cleaning methods, grooming, problems, and many others! If you are curious to learn more, keep reading!
Do All Papillons Have Butterfly Ears?
The Papillon breed (also called the Continental Toy Spaniel), is known for its unique butterfly-shaped ears that stand up straight; hence the breed’s name “Papillon,” which means “butterfly” in French!
While most all Papillons have butterfly-shaped ears, not all of them will have these largely distinct, stood-up ears. Some Papillons can have smaller, less fluffy ears which oftentimes appear floppy; these types of ears are called “phalene” or “night moth” ears!
Papillons in the past had smaller, floppier ears, but over time their ears changed and began to stand up straight. Some people believe that the reason their ears changed over time is because of a genetic mutation!
Most Papillon owners are proud of the beautiful long hair that grows from or around their Papillon’s ears. While a lot of these dogs will have this long hair, they don’t always have to.
This unique ear hair tends to grow slowly and not in large amounts, this is why most owners try not to trim the hair around the ears unless it becomes irritating for the dog.

When Do Papillon Ears Stand Up?
Many Papillon owners worry that if their dogs’ ears aren’t standing straight when they are born that they never will; however, this is usually not the case.
Papillons are normally born with floppy ears, their ears will begin to stand up on their own within the first few weeks of their lives.
It is important not to become worried if you notice your dogs’ ears not standing up within the first few weeks of their life, all Papillons are different, and their ears may just be taking longer to stand.
NOTE: It can sometimes take months for Papillon ears to stand up on their own, and sometimes they won’t stand at all. In rare cases, a Papillon may be born with straight ears, but they may begin drooping later on in life.
How to Make Papillon Ears Stand Up?
Papillon owners that are concerned that their dogs’ ears aren’t standing straight oftentimes wonder if there is any way to move the process along faster.
There are certain things that Papillon owners have been known to try to get their dog’s ears to stand up, normally by feeding them foods with a lot of calcium. This will help build up the cartilage in the ear, making the ear stand straighter!
Some foods that are common for Papillon owners to try and use to make their dog’s ears stand straighter include yogurt and cottage cheese, these are both very rich in calcium which helps the bone grow stronger!
There are other methods of making a dog’s ears stand up such as ear cropping (a surgical procedure where the ears are trimmed) or taping the ears up so they will grow straight.
Papillons are not a breed that usually has this done like a Boston Terrier or a Boxer would be. Even if Papillons continue to have floppy ears throughout their lives, they are still considered to be “breed standard.”
Why Does my Papillon Have Floppy Ears?
People who are not familiar with the Papillon breed often wonder why the breed will sometimes have floppy ears instead of the usual “butterfly” ears that are so popular.
Phalene or “moth” ears are common in the Papillon breed which causes their ears to appear floppier and hang down further; this usually occurs because of breeding!
There are other reasons why a Papillon may have floppier ears that are not caused by genetics including ear infections, or other ear issues.
Otitis is a common type of ear infection that Papillons have been known to develop. This is caused when the outer ear canal becomes extremely inflamed. Ear infections are usually caused because water or bacteria becomes trapped in the ear.
NOTE: If one of your Papillon’s ears has flopped over and the other has not, this usually indicates an ear infection or another type of health problem. It is best to visit your vet if you notice this happening to your dog!
There is also another simple reason why your Papillon’s ears are floppy, they may not have enough cartilage to hold the ears straight.
If a Papillon’s body is lacking calcium, floppy ears are likely to occur, that is why so many owners result to feeding their dogs’ calcium-rich foods!
Another great way to enhance your Papillon’s calcium intake is to start them on supplements like probiotics early. Probiotics can not only help a Papillon’s gut health, but they are very rich in calcium which can help their bone growth!
NOTE: Read this article to learn all about probiotics for puppies: Puppy Probiotics (Everything You Need to Know!)
Papillon Ear Problems
Because Papillon ears are so unique and well-known to the breed. Oftentimes owners wonder if there are any common ear issues associated with the breed that they should be aware of before bringing a Papillon into their family.
Papillons thankfully don’t have too many ear issues; however, they have been known to develop ear infections and deafness in one or both ears.
It is important to maintain a consistent ear cleaning routine to make sure that your Papillon isn’t at high risk of getting an ear infection.
Usually, long-lasting infections in the ear are the main cause of Papillons becoming deaf.
NOTE: Phalene Papillons are more at risk for ear infections than Papillons with butterfly ears. This is usually because floppy ears hold in more moisture and bacteria which are the main causes of ear infections.
How to Groom/Clean a Papillon’s Ears
Because Papillons are known for their amazing ears, a lot of owners want to make sure that those ears are taken great care of!
It is important to keep a Papillon’s ears consistently groomed and clean. There are several steps to take and products to use for this including maintaining the consistency of grooming/cleaning, using dog-safe ear cleaning solution, and blow-drying the ear fringe.
Brushing a Papillon’s ear hair consistently is one of the best grooming methods! It is important to do this at least every other day to ensure that the hair gets no tangles.
Because a Papillon’s ear hair doesn’t grow much and sometimes won’t grow back at all if cut too short, it is generally advised not to trim a Papillon’s ear hair.
TIP: If you notice your Papillon’s ear hair getting too long to the point that it is bothersome and overwhelming for your dog, it is okay to trim it!
As mentioned previously, Phalene Papillons are known to get ear infections more often than Papillons with butterfly ears since moisture and bacteria are easily trapped.
It is critical to keep the ears clean, especially for a Phalene Papillon, you can do this by using a cotton ball with a dog-safe ear cleaner! After pouring some of the cleaning solution onto the cotton ball, gently swab inside your dog’s ear.
It is not recommended to use a dog ear cleaning solution that contains alcohol in the ingredients list, this can be very irritating to the dog’s skin, especially for dogs with sensitive skin.
TIP: Keep cleaning until the cotton ball comes away without anything on it, this means that the ear is completely clean!
If you notice your Papillon keeps getting ear infections, you may consider plucking out any ear hair inside the ear with tweezers. Hair is usually what gathers the most bacteria and can cause irritation and infection.
NOTE: Talk with your vet before plucking out any inner ear hairs, they can show you the most effective and safe way to do this!
After bathing a Papillon, it is critical that their ears get dried off enough, especially if they have a lot of hanging ear hair.
Blow drying the ears is important because you don’t want to risk leaving behind any water that could find its way into the ear canal and can cause an infection.
When drying a Papillon’s ear hair, start at the back of the ear and brush from the bottom to the tip of the ear.
By brushing this way, you will notice that your Papillon’s ear hair looks very nice, and your dog will be more comfortable during the grooming process.
How Long Does It Take for Papillon Ear Hair to Grow?
Papillon owners who love the long-haired ear look on the breed oftentimes wonder how long it will take for their dog, in particular, to grow out that unique and popular-looking ear hair.
It usually takes longer than 1 and a half years for a Papillons ear fringe to fully grow out; However, once it is grown, it usually will not grow back the same if cut/trimmed or it may not grow back at all.
The texture and amount of a Papillons ear hair usually determines whether or not they will grow back any ear hair that is trimmed.
NOTE: Even if the hair does grow back, it probably won’t be the same texture/look as it was before, just like what happens to some breeds when they are shaved.
There are several types of ear hair textures that a Papillon can have depending on the genetics of their parent breed. These include fine/silky and thick/coarse.
Papillons can come in a variety of different fur colors which make their ear hair appear unique as well.
Some of the fur colors that Papillons often have include:
- Sable (darker with shades of black and brown)
- A mix of red and white
- Brown and white
- White, black, and tan
- Red, white, and sable
- Tan and white
Depending on what type of fur color a Papillon has can determine how much ear hair they have.
Red and sable Papillons tend to grow less ear fringe than other colors of Papillons because their hair is very fine and can break easier.
Papillon’s that have white, tan, and darker color fur tend to grow more ear fringe because the hair breaks less and grows faster.
Here are some tips to make your Papillon’s ear hair grow out faster:
- Consistently brush and groom your Papillon’s ear fringe.
- Give your Papillon a weekly bath, this keeps the hair in better condition.
- Avoid having your Papillon in situations where their ear hair could be damaged, such as swimming, playing with other dogs that pull on their hair, or other activities that may result in damaging the fragile ear hair.
Types of Papillon Ear Fringes
Just like a lot of other dog breeds that have unique grooming styles, Papillons are known for having a variety of different ear fringes.
The different appearances of Papillon ear fringes depend on the texture and amount of hair that the dog has.
Here are a few examples of the type of ear fringes that Papillons will have:
- Ear hair appears shorter at the tip of the ear but there is longer, finer, and silkier hair that is hanging off the bottom and sides of the ear.
- Ear hair appears long and almost curly/wavy, this type of fringe is usually coarser in texture (a lot of darker colored Papillons will have this) – will appear “fluffier”
- “Curtain Fringe” – Sometimes a butterfly-eared Papillon who has this type of fringe is mistaken as a Phalene Papillon. The way that the ear fringe lays make it look as if the ear is hanging, while really, it is just the ear hair!
What do Papillon Ear Positions Mean?
Like a lot of other dog breeds, Papillons are sometimes easy to read simply based on their ear positions.
Papillon ear positions can indicate many different feelings and emotions going on with your dog such as frustration, anger, excitement, fear, anxiety, happiness, etc.
Because Papillons have such unique and distinct ears, it is oftentimes easy to get a good read on their emotions simply because of their ear positions.
Here are a few ear positions that Papillons may have that indicate certain emotions:
- Stood straight and relaxed — Calm and friendly.
- Straight and turned slightly inward — Alert, on edge, or interested in something. (You may notice this if your dog is stressed or in a new environment/social setting.)
- Slightly back — Excited
- Fully back — Fearful or anxious
- Moving at odd angles/back and forth — Usually when a Papillon moves their ears in different directions this just means that they hear something and are trying to listen more closely.
NOTE: Although Papillons with butterfly ears will already have ears that are standing straight, if you notice a stiffness to the ears that appears as if they are forcing their ears straighter, this may indicate they are in pain, very alert, or sick.

Cyclone potential builds off north QldBy Jessica Nairn, Monday March 4, 2013 - 10:07 EDT
The weather bureau says there is a possibility of a cyclone developing in the Coral Sea off north Queensland by the end of the week.
A low-pressure system caused drenching rain in Townsville and the Mackay region over the weekend.
The bureau says more than 600 lightning strikes were recorded during the storm.
More than 65 millimetres of rain fell at Magnetic Island and 60mm at the Townsville airport.
Munbura, just north of Sarina, topped the state's rainfall charts, recording 306mm in 24 hours.
Several roads in the region, including the Peak Downs Highway, were closed overnight and residents in low-lying areas of east and north Mackay had minor flooding.
Last night, a canegrower rescued a woman trapped in rising floodwaters north of Mackay.
Forecaster Doug Fraser says if a cyclone forms it should move away from the coast.
"We are also looking at the winds freshening up with the firm ridge building along the coastline with the monsoonal trough increasing up to the north," he said.
"Fairly active conditions and increasing winds over the next few days, but the good news is the computer models that are generating a cyclone are moving it away from the coastline as well."

Cyclone Debbie's eye wall reaches the North Queensland coast, bringing with it the system's strongest winds and heaviest rainfall.
Tropical Cyclone Debbie is just hours from reaching the north Queensland coast.

Oral Cancer Screenings in St. Louis
Oral cancer, especially in its advanced stages, can be aggressive. Every year, more than 53,000 adults are diagnosed with some form of oral cancer. The key to detecting oral cancer before it becomes more advanced is to have regular oral cancer screenings done.
The Effects of Oral Cancer
While oral cancer can be genetic, patients that have a high-risk of oral cancer are those that smoke, use chewing tobacco, have a history of extreme sun exposure, or who have had oral cancer in the past.
If oral cancer isn't detected, in its more advanced stages, it can cause thyroid issues, tooth decay, severe gum disease, worn-down teeth, tooth loss, and damage to the jaw bone. However, the early symptoms of oral cancer are often easy to overlook. In its early stages, oral cancer can present itself as tenderness of the mouth, bleeding gums, and slight discoloration of the lips, mouth, or teeth.
Regular oral cancer screenings in St. Louis can detect even the most minor symptoms of oral cancer and ensure that your overall health and smile are protected.
What is Included During an Oral Cancer Screening?
Symptoms of oral cancer can vary, but the most common symptoms include lumps or bumps around the mouth, red or white patches, sores, bleeding gums, and decaying teeth. In its early stages, oral cancer can quickly be detected by Dr. Martin with an oral cancer screening.
During an oral cancer screening in St. Louis, Dr. Martin will examine the inside of your mouth, specifically your lips, gums, cheeks, and teeth, and look for any abnormalities that could be present.
Interested in an Oral Cancer Screening in St. Louis?
If oral cancer isn't detected with an oral cancer screening, it can slowly spread to other parts of a patient's body and cause other forms of cancer to develop. Martin Dental & Associates is dedicated to making sure that you are protected from the harmful effects of oral cancer and your smile is as healthy as possible.
Dr. Martin uses the latest techniques and equipment during oral cancer screenings and combines this with nearly three decades of experience to provide the leading oral cancer screenings in St. Louis.
For more information on why Dr. John Martin is the top choice of St. Louis residents for oral cancer screenings in St. Louis, call (314) 739-1222 (Maryland Heights Location), (573) 764-2425 (Gerald Location), or contact Martin Dental & Associates today to schedule a consultation.

Levan Tsutskiridze is Executive Director of the Eastern European Center for Multi-party Democracy (EECMD)
Georgia has witnessed unbelievable violence during the first week of July. The homophobic mob, egged on by the religious extremists that are entrenched in the Georgian Orthodox Patriarchy and encouraged by the Government’s inaction, targeted the activists of Tbilisi Pride (which had to be canceled), civil society representatives, and critical media. At times, unchained violence broke on simple passers-by who happened to be “inappropriately” dressed. Many people – and an unprecedented number of journalists, 53 – were injured. One cameraman, Lekso Lashkarava, who was reportedly beaten by tens of assailants, was found dead two days after having being discharged from the hospital. The July violence has further increased the gap between Georgia’s democratic aspirations and the reality: it has been years now, that the key indicators are slipping, while polarization and violence in Tbilisi and in the country grows.
It is hard to believe, that this violence was spontaneous, or a result of police incompetence. We have seen in the past years, that the police possess and can deploy substantial resources and skills to control the mass protests. After all, millions were spent on equipping and training the riot police – including by the partner countries. Almost one month has passed after the violent events, but nobody took the political responsibility. The Minister of Interior, faced by the opposition and media protest in the Parliament, left the hall without providing his report. The inaction of the government, coupled with hate speech and, at times, even physical confrontation of the officials with their critics, is perceived by ultra-conservative, violent groups as an encouragement, especially since their leaders remain unpunished.
What is happening in Georgia, is a premeditated attempt by the small, but influential group of the religious and civil authorities to cancel democracy while pretending to act in the name of the majority of Georgians. Violence on journalists is not a culmination, but merely an intermediate step of this plan. If this attempt goes unpunished, they will do worse.
This is because the organizers of this group have no positive agenda – they only want to cling to money and power indefinitely. Now that they have embarked on the path of violence, the stakes got higher: many are conscious that they took part in criminal actions and shall the winds chance, may be prosecuted. For this very reason, any means are now good to cling to power.
Society must respond to this unbridled aggression peacefully, but in an organized fashion, which is both realistic and feasible.
In reality, those who are rationally engaging in violence and organized pogroms are a minority, and their actions not only do not reflect the will of the majority of Georgians but directly oppose it. These minority groups benefit from impunity and gain influence because they hope that their friends and supporters high up – in the government and the patriarchy – will always stand by them, will continue to provide protection, resources, and information which feeds their violent actions and, it seems, their personal fortunes, too.
But their fortunes may turn. They are a political asset now but may become a dangerous liability tomorrow. What happens then? Nobody from their protectors would shed a tear. They feel the time is short, and that’s why they are going all in, trying to capitalize on transient success. The more time passes, the higher the risk that they will be chosen to carry the buck. The democratic civil society must use it as an advantage.
We can be confident, that this violence, will fail, sooner, or later. This is because they have already failed the battle of ideas: resorting to physical violence is a clear indication that they have no more arguments and are fighting the rearguard battle. Yes, the danger will persist, their failure won’t be automatic and nobody – neither the United States or the European Union – will fight this battle for us. The future of Georgia’s democracy, and, therefore, the future of Georgia is to be determined by the Georgian citizens, it is up to us to carry the risks and shoulder the effort.
To succeed, the public protest against violence, intolerance, and all those vices that were on display in July must move beyond spontaneous rallies and demonstrations, take a much more organized, determined, and, crucially, diverse form. It is hard to recall a pro-democratic civic movement that achieved anything without having a long-term vision and specific plan of action. Of course, events may emerge that change the political context, but these are events outside our control and therefore, we cannot possibly count on them. It is therefore essential to come up with a clear and large-scale, democratic action plan which will represent a consensus of all democratic forces.
This is a difficult task, but not impossible, especially now, when the democratic center became a target of violence and reprisals and is, thus, existentially threatened. The non-violent, pro-democratic, civic project and movement shall have clear objectives and an obvious plan. This is the precondition for the survival of the democratic center, and for its ultimate victory.
This is not the task only for the liberals to undertake, because, despite their influence and their experience in spearheading the protest, there are not many of them. Without them, no change is possible, but only they are not capable of achieving a breakthrough. What is important to acknowledge, is that the future of Georgian democracy, the rule of law, and of individual citizens is not only of concern to liberals. It is not true, that the Georgian society is cleft in two – a small group of liberals on one side and orthodox traditionalists on the other. Our country is very diverse and we, liberals, who like to think about diversity, must reflect this preference to diversity in concrete actions. We must build bridges to other groups that are also trying for their voice to be heard. Unfortunately, today we again are at the stage when the dividing line does not pass through political beliefs and preferences for various nuances of democratic governance but is rooted in our vision of the future – do we want to live in a free, democratic, society, or a quasi-authoritarian, backward, failed and poor state?
Politics and civic activism are the domain of ideas. If we insist on perceiving our society divided in two, that is the political world we would get, and the actions we would take. But if we can demonstrate to ourselves and to the outside observers, that our society has many more factors of unity, than of division, then we would be able to form a wide and strong democratic coalition. The majority of Georgian citizens do not like violence in our streets, are against corruption in government, church, or politics, and want to have a brighter, more promising future in the country. To live, where her or his rights are respected and where the law serves society, rather than party or criminal bosses. This is the link that unites liberals and conservatives alike.
We are at the stage when the majority must realize that it is not a monolithic whole, but a sum of individual minorities, and that it must act accordingly, so that tomorrow, other of its composing parts are not targeted by the unbridled mob. Some groups are not actively protesting violence and effectively stand outside the democratic process because nobody speaks to them today. To find the missing links that unite, the liberal forces must deliberate internally, and with conservatives, the city with the village, those better off with less fortunate.
The mistake that we often made, was to assume that we cannot possibly understand each other. But the situation has changed now: there are no complex issues, the tragedy of the past days has driven a clear line dividing the society between the majority that resents violence and the minority that supports it. The choice is now simple: living in modern, civic society or choosing obscurantist diktat of the clerical and political elite. Most Georgian citizens prefer the first option, even those who do not speak out publicly – at least not yet.
Only wide, inclusive dialogue can bring about the “grand coalition” which is required for meaningful pro-democratic change. Political parties, media, and civic activists have their role to play in that coalition. But its membership must go beyond these traditional actors – the real civic coalition must be built from local communities up, consolidating in the capital at the highest political channels – through the parliament, but also through civic action, protest, or diplomatic relations. Such a grand coalition, which, alongside good ideas, would have good and actionable plans and international support would be a strong combination for our future combat for liberty – of which there would still be many, and soon.
The democratic community of nations will understand the ideals of such a coalition and will find the common language with it. Statements made by our international partners are a testimony to their unwavering support of democratic civil society. In the immediate future, free media and civil society will come under increasing pressure from the radicalized groups that unite, more and more obviously, under illiberal banners and consolidate significant financial and political resources. The international community, which could always count on Georgian civil society as an ally in building the democratic future, will yet have to play an important role in assuring the resilience of these actors and for making sure that pressure exerted upon it does not remain without international reaction and tangible response.
Georgia’s democratic forces can still do a lot, but in the political battle that is upon us, in an incomplete, damaged democratic system, the victory will depend not only on the soundness of ideas and arguments but on better organization and on building a truly democratic coalition. Nobody will be a loser of this combat, save the small group of violent criminals. And this is what Georgia needs now: a shared victory. If we achieve it, not only the democracy won’t be canceled – which is now a real danger – but it would emerge strengthened and with a wider basis of support required for a systemic reset.

Now, after several well-received interim singles (not to mention a string of bad luck that included hurricanes, hazardous jobs, jail, stolen vans, burglaries, broken bones, busted teeth and severe burns), Jonny Rumble is back with the a new full-length titled JR, an explosive mix of power pop, garage rock and alt-country. The album features the monster single “BRZRKR,” the liltingly psychedelic “Stumped” and the beautiful piano and pedal steel-driven “Time.” Rounding out Jonny Rumble’s line-up are Patrick O’Connor (vocals, keys, guitar), Jeremy Pryor (vocals, bass) and Seth Thomas (vocals, drums). JR the album is available on vinyl as a limited edition to 250 copies at http://jonnyrumble.bigcartel.com
Rock Proper, an online music distributor/net label launched in 2009, will be the exclusive digital distributor of the album. You can download the full record for FREE at www.RockProper.com
Hailing from Brooklyn, NY, this proudly-loud five piece are quickly becoming a point of discussion for bloggers and tapers, as well as eager & sweaty concert-goers all across the country.
Hot off the release of their debut 'The Halcyon Days,' The Bottom Dollars stormed through the american independent rock scene showcasing at SXSW, CMJ Music Marathon(s), placed first as The Deli Magazine's Best Emerging Artist of 2011 (Editor's Poll) and recently recorded a session with indie giants: Daytrotter, currently resting at #57 in their top sessions.
"Professional Sonic Assassins."
"The Bottom Dollars' music goes something like this...It's having a flask tucked, at all times, in the inside pocket of any coat that would ever be worn. It's keeping that flask healthily full with something that coats."
- Sean Moeller, Daytrotter
"It doesn't get much better."
- Lindsay Gilbert, No Pulp Music
“Pick any Bottom Dollars' tune and see if the first guitar riff doesn't make you want a bottle of whiskey and a barstool (the "let's make some trouble" kind, not the "let's drown our sorrows" kind).”
"With heavy blues vocals and an old-west-appeal, The Bottom Dollars continue to feed on their growing buzz with energetic live shows and a constant presence in the New York music scene."
- Devon Antonetti, The Deli Magazine
The songs draw from a wealth of influences, often tied together with only as much thread as is necessary for coherence. What results is a repertoire that, by virtue of its diversity, truly transports the listener. It's a set composed of contrasting moods and moments: an anthemic blitz of guitars and wired synths; a falsetto croon slinking out over drum-bass groove straight out of '73; a music box lullaby bursting into chamber pop or keening alt-country or glitzy dance-rock. All of these sounds are complemented by a stunning video/light component and performed by musicians that command the stage with a presence that belies their youth and a vigor that proves it.
The Flips have been demoing and playing gigs since 2007, but constant personnel changes, and not being able to find a niche in the ever-changing Chicago music scene had always hindered the band from ever truly stepping up to bat.
However, now with a solid lineup in Mike Carlson (drums), Dustin Martin (guitar
), Annette Nowacki (keys, percussion, etc) and Nick Sintos (vocals/guitar), The Flips plan on taking Midwest by force.
With their debut EP, "Damn You & Damn Me, Too", (released December 16th, 2011) The Flips are looking to turn a lot of heads with their passionate rock sounds
mixed with songwriter Nick Sintos' honest and heartfelt lyrics. "This collection of songs was all written around the time I was going through some rough patches in my life. We lost some people very close to us, and it put a strain on my relationship not only with my friends and my family, but also strained my relationship with God. I didn't like the person I was becoming; and these songs serve as a storytelling device for the things I was going through in a very general, yet introspective way," Sintos says.
To assist them in putting their thoughts into sound, The Flips enlisted the aid of audio engineer Alex Cruz from The Jungle Recording studio in Chicago. Together they would craft a sound that is delicate, yet abrasive; dreamy, yet raw, and all complimenting lyrics that are sensitive and personal and spiritually cognizant.
Now, having played numerous shows all over Chicago and its surrounding areas, and with the release of "Damn You & Damn Me, Too", the only thing that is left for The Flips is to just swing for the fences.

In another post Official PlayStation BlogGuerrilla Games brings us more details from the high-caliber Horizon Forbidden West AAA development process.
In this new article, Guerrilla Games reveals “how it went through the process of creating an immersive, original, adventure-filled game, culture, and opportunity to sequel Horizon Zero Dawn.”
The importance given to harmony is revealed between teams that focus on the sequel, are able to create a world in which all surrounding aspects make sense and, above all, convey a sense of realism and that they belong to the vast world they are creating.
“Cooperation between their teams is necessary so that all aspects of the game make sense and feel real and authentic and convey a sense of place, despite the difficulty of turning the narrative into visuals embedded in the world of Horizon Forbidden West.”
Building this open world in constant development, where each tribe has its own customs, was one of the biggest challenges.
“The goal is to make sure that every location in the game feels authentic, so that the player finds a world that is more vibrant and realistic than ever before, especially given that Aloy relies on different villages and their NPCs to support and equip themselves.”
“All NPCs that do not interact in a combative form are part of a system in which rules, such as reactions, have been created. The character-defining attitude system has also been created, which means that distinct people can be created who act like individuals within the world. It is even possible Visually distinguish each tribe by its behavior and animation.”
In addition to the details regarding the world of Horizon Forbidden West, whether it is the NPCs and even the different environments in each region, the importance given to what the player will feel when playing the sequel for the first time has been mentioned.
“The balance of game progression is one of the key points, ensuring that each player is easily able to obtain a set of equipment that maintains their strength enough to take on each challenge throughout the game. It rewards the player for engaging more deeply with the world of Horizon Forbidden West, while maintaining on friendliness with anyone looking to focus on the main narrative.”
“Weapons and suits are now more powerful and elegant, because they will not only provide resistance to the different types of damage that Aloy will face, but will also collect bonuses for abilities, that is, with a certain outfit that enhances the correct skills, the possibilities are countless. In addition, Aloy will be able It allows the player to carry up to six weapons at a time, as well as switch weapons and suits on the go, allowing the player to change their style at any time.”
Horizon Forbidden West arrives on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 on February 18, 2022,
“Beer Geek. The Evil Ninja of Pop Culture. Life Coffee Scholar. Professional Internet Teacher. Meat Teacher.”


Ee-mastered edition with bonus remixes from Ametsub (mille plateaux/progressive form), Tyme. and Geskia (flau).
Open up your ears to the new era of Japanese contemporary pop music. We are proud to announce flau’s first cd release Mirror Flake, is the beautiful debut album by the talented female artist cokiyu who hails from Ehime, Japan.
As a vocalist, she participated in albums and live performances of aus. Mirror Flake sets a new standard in the genre of bedroom pop. The album instills soft-hearted shoegaze sounds into delicately beautiful melodies which are organically mixed with the graceful use of instruments like toy piano, music box, guitar (by ueda takayasu), and the gorgeous whispery voice of cokiyu that has sparkled in Curveland of aus.
Mirror Flake is definitely a must have for the fans of Japanese pop. – flau
“Your Thorn” arrives sometime since Cokiyu’s previous record, “Mirror Flake.” In that period it would appear that the artist has not only refined her sound, but also developed ways to give it a greater sense of illumination. She does so without ever feeling overly busy or complicated. The result is a highly enjoyable fusion of pop and electronic noises, providing listeners with a modern twist on the formula of making attainable and catchy, yet detailed and textured music. – Fluid Radio
Haruki is the pseudonym of composer/sonic artist Boris Snauwaert from Ghent, Belgium, who creates sonic environments through the precise, meditated amalgamation of a diverse variety of sounds, both musical and non-musical. In any given track Haruki combines any or all sound sources; field recordings, acoustic instruments, acoustic noises, found samples, sampled instruments and so on.
The CD features a fantastically detailed drawing from Bleeding Heart Narrative, folding out around the gatefold thick-card sleeve in a two colour print.
All copies come with a 12-panel foldout insert, and the 200 limited copies also include an extra two-colour numbered screenprint, and are also hand-numbered and sewn together.
Jonathan Canupp is a name you should know but probably don’t, but then again might. He records under Ten and Tracer and I’ve been into his records for ages and ages now. Back when I was checking out early net label releases, Jonathan came up as one of two people whose work in their entirety I just fell in love with. And funny how he actually works with the other artist now and lives in the same damn city – the person being a certain Jason Corder (offthesky, Juxta Phona) no less. He makes wonderful IDM music and in fact I may have asked him years ago now to make us a ‘meaty beaty’ record. And along he comes with the very cheek of making some sublimely evolved, subtly woven record using violin, tape machines, guitars, maybe some keyboards and other stuff too. Friendless Now is a beautifully realised work, and one of my favourite Ten and Tracer releases to date.
Named after a Hitchcock-esque nightmare in which he was set upon by a pair of hard-winged, marauding cuckoos, David A Jaycock’s second album is step forward from the pastoral motifs of his debut, incorporating an expansive country-folk sound alongside the indigenous qualities and general oddness that have made his name.


BJB plays a vital role in the future of vertical farming, which is the practice of producing food on vertically inclined surfaces, helping communities become self-sufficient.
By 2050, the world’s population is expected to grow by another 2 billion people, and feeding it will be a huge challenge. With commercial development and industrial development, we continue to lose land for cultivating farming. With the increased food demand, growing population, and reduction in arable lands, many experts believe that vertical farming can be the anser.
How Does Vertical Farming Work?
Instead of producing food in a field or a greenhouse, vertical farming produces foods in vertically stacked layers commonly integrated into other structures, like a skyscraper, a shipping container, or repurposed warehouse.
Using Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA) technology, the revolutionary system uses indoor farming techniques. The artificial control of temperature, light, humidity, and gases make producing foods and medicine indoor possible. Additionally, vertical farming is similar to greenhouses where metal reflectors and artificial lighting (that’s where BJB comes in) to augment natural sunlight. The primary mission of vertical farming is maximizing crops output in a limited space.
How BJB Plays a Vital Role in Vertical Farming
Vertical Farming has four vital areas:
- Lighting (BJB)
- Physical layout
- Growing medium
- Sustainability features
To be clear, the most important goal of vertical farming is producing more foods per square meter. The process is to have crops produced in ‘stacked layers’ in a tower structure. The most critical element is the technical combination of natural and artificial lights to maintain the perfect light level in the room. Some vertical farming techniques include rotating beds, in order to improve lighting efficiency.
Lighting is such an instrumental factor, and BJB is positioned favorably long-term. Here’s a brief video of our product:
Advances in LED technology, of which BJB is a leader, has been a decisive factor for the development of such ‘indoor farms’. The energy-efficient light-emitting diodes hardly lose any heat and can replace the sunlight which isindispensable for plant growth. For photosynthesis and therefore biomass production, plants only use certain components of the natural light spectrum – mainly red and blue. Compared with conventional lighting solutions for plant cultivation, LEDs increase energy efficiency considerably and can therefore promote the breakthrough of vegetable and fruit cultivation in large cities around the globe.
Perfect Light for Every Type of Plant
BJB LED boards can be individually adjusted to your plants according to the required wavelength or customer specification, thus laying the basis for optimum plant growth.
Simple to Use
The BJB LED modules are attached quite simply by means of appropriate support elements with clip fasteners. They can be removed without tools. Electrical contact is via a plug socket.
Very Thin, Leaving More Room for Plants
Thanks to their low installation height of 18 mm and a width of 35 mm, the LED modules are very flat and space-saving. As a result, depending on the system in use, 1-2 additional shelves can be installed, thereby providing more room for plants. Standard modules have a length of approx. 1.20 m.
Protection class IP66 – of course
Our LED modules meet the requirements of protection class IP66 and are therefore adequately protected against strong jets of water. This enables us to achieve optimum performance and service life even under difficult conditions.
Finally, instead of soil, vertical farmers use hydroponic growing mediums. Unique elements such as peat moss or coconut husks and similar non-soil mediums are very common in vertical farming. And vertical farming uses various sustainability features to offset the energy cost of farming. To most people’s surprise, vertical farming uses 95 percent less water than traditional farming.
As the world faces new and unprecedented hurdles, BJB is impacting how we address new an innovative ways to become self-sufficient communities. Vertical Farming is on a long-term trajectory of growth, and BJB and our LED modules will lead the way.
