![]() To cherish a bottle top, it turns out, is to save the world.Įl Anatsui is at Tate Modern, London, 10 October to 14 April 2024. Sorry for the grammar, not a native English speaker. He reflects the peril of our world where people are treated like waste. Is it a vessel of hope or a ship of fools? El Anatsui catches so much in his reflective little bits of metal and glossed paper. The whole Turbine Hall suddenly resembles a ship, sailing into the future. The canopy at the entrance turns out, from this vantage point, to be a gigantic golden sail. Like Rodin’s Burghers of Calais, these fragile human souls have only each other. They are massed close together, like refugees on a raft, trying to help each other, swaying in a stately, anguished dance. They are human figures, silhouettes of people caught in the light.

Daylight from above interacts with all the stuff he’s gathered in a symphony of endlessly changing, subtle, loving colours, that will be different through each day. Here, he recognises something no other artist has teased out of the Turbine Hall before: its superb natural light. I’ve usually seen El Anatsui’s works in more conventional museum spaces where they can only hint at that heavenly transformation – they don’t get enough light. It is light that can efface the physical, dissolve differences, erase boundaries and gather every shiny little individual element into a glimmering oneness. The imagination sees waves, troughs, an ocean of colour even as you rationally recognise all the little bits of salvaged scrap. ![]() ![]() It seems to happen right before your eyes. It’s a baffling alchemical transmutation. The transformation you witness in these works is not just a neat academic idea. People as well as bottle tops are gathered up on his ark. Yet he is a poet, not a protester, and his found stuff suggests not just literal rubbish but human waste. El Anatsui started making art as a reclamation of the industrial world’s detritus in the 1970s and this has added urgency with every new degree of climate crisis. You quickly grasp the moral significance. It may seem simple enough to accept that everything in his Tate installation is made from discarded rubbish. Mystical … El Anatsui at Tate Modern’s Turbine Hall. ![]() Hardy, Arkansas 72542 4,503 in National Rankings 62 in Arkansas High Schools.

SELECT json_typeof (info-> 'items'-> 'qty') The following query returns the data type of the qty field of the nested items JSON object. The following query return the data type of the items: SELECT json_typeof (info-> 'items') It can be number, boolean, null, object, array, and string. The json_typeof() function returns type of the outermost JSON value as a string. The following query returns all keys of the nested items object in the info column SELECT json_object_keys (info-> 'items')įROM orders Code language: SQL (Structured Query Language) ( sql ) json_typeof function To get a set of keys in the outermost JSON object, you use the json_object_keys() function. If you want to get a set of key-value pairs as text, you use the json_each_text() function instead. See the following statement: SELECT json_each (info) The json_each() function allows us to expand the outermost JSON object into a set of key-value pairs. PostgreSQL provides us with some functions to help you process JSON data. ![]() SUM ( CAST (info -> 'items' -> 'qty' AS INTEGER)),ĪVG ( CAST (info -> 'items' -> 'qty' AS INTEGER))įROM orders Code language: SQL (Structured Query Language) ( sql ) PostgreSQL JSON functions ![]() MAX ( CAST (info -> 'items' -> 'qty' AS INTEGER)), SELECT MIN ( CAST (info -> 'items' -> 'qty' AS INTEGER)), For example, the following statement returns minimum quantity, maximum quantity, average quantity and the total quantity of products sold. We can apply aggregate functions such as MIN, MAX, AVERAGE, SUM, etc., to JSON data. Notice that we used the type cast to convert the qty field into INTEGER type and compare it with two. WHERE CAST ( info -> 'items' -> 'qty' AS INTEGER) = 2 Code language: SQL (Structured Query Language) ( sql ) To find out who bought two products at a time, we use the following query: SELECT info -> 'customer' AS customer, WHERE info -> 'items' -> 'product' = 'Diaper' Code language: SQL (Structured Query Language) ( sql ) For example, to find out who bought Diaper, we use the following query: SELECT info -> 'customer' AS customer We can use the JSON operators in WHERE clause to filter the returning rows. And then info->'items'->'product' returns all products as text. ORDER BY product Code language: SQL (Structured Query Language) ( sql )įirst info -> 'items' returns items as JSON objects. For example, the following statement returns all products sold: SELECT info -> 'items' -> 'product' as product The following query uses the operator -> to get all customers in form of JSON: SELECT info -> 'customer' AS customerįROM orders Code language: SQL (Structured Query Language) ( sql )Īnd the following query uses operator -> to get all customers in form of text: SELECT info -> 'customer' AS customerīecause -> operator returns a JSON object, you can chain it with the operator -> to retrieve a specific node. The operator -> returns JSON object field by text.The operator -> returns JSON object field by key.PostgreSQL provides two native operators -> and -> to help you query JSON data. PostgreSQL returns a result set in the form of JSON. To query JSON data, you use the SELECT statement, which is similar to querying other native data types: SELECT info FROM orders Code language: SQL (Structured Query Language) ( sql ) VALUES( '') Ĭode language: SQL (Structured Query Language) ( sql ) Querying JSON data The following INSERT statement inserts a new row into the orders table. To insert data into a JSON column, you have to ensure that data is in a valid JSON format. The info column stores the data in the form of JSON.The id column is the primary key column that identifies the order.The orders table consists of two columns: ) Code language: SQL (Structured Query Language) ( sql ) Let’s get started by creating a new table for practicing with JSON data type. PostgreSQL supports native JSON data type since version 9.2. It provides many functions and operators for manipulating JSON data. Unlike other formats, JSON is human-readable text. The main usage of JSON is to transport data between a server and a web application. JSON is an open standard format that consists of key-value pairs. JSON stands for JavaScript Object Notation. Summary: in this tutorial, you will learn how to how to work with PostgreSQL JSON data type and some useful operators and functions for handling JSON data. ![]() Officially we do not support Xcode 8, however it is possible to build Komodo under Xcode 8 using a new extra steps.

Sorry in advance for any spelling/grammatical errors. In true programming fashion I chose not to duplicate work and to simply share with you what I shared with my friend Kelso. I figure a sufficient amount of time has passed that I could easily pass this off as my idea, so here it is. After writing the instructions for Kelso to follow to run and debug his Python script using the free Komodo Edit, I realized that EricP had previously suggested I write a blog about this exact same process setting up Komodo Edit with Python so that Udacity students could easily run and test their scripts. I told Kelso why his reasoning was incorrect and asked him to email me at the ActiveState support queue. “I checked all the boxes and clicked all the buttons and saw all the files moves! Where is it?”. Reasonable pricing!Īnyways, my new friend Kelso (names have been changed to protect the innocent from stuck-up judgemental programmers) couldn’t figure out why Python wasn’t showing up in his Application folder on his Mac.

I recently got a support call from a fellow down in SoCal. ![]() Written about the beginnings of the band and reflecting on youth, it shows their softer side. ![]() Things get better on the optimistic on the latter song. It doesn’t stick with you once the EP ends. Very little about it stands out the song is just there. Similar to the other tracks, the music is light and upbeat, but it’s pretty forgettable. Unlike previous releases that sound raw and gritty, this EP is more polished and clean, especially on tracks like “What it Takes” and “One Day We’ll Make It Big.” “What it Takes” isn’t a bad song, but it’s not all that interesting. She even gives a big fuck you to Trump, though she claims it’s nothing political. It’s an anthem for those who are weird and wonderful. ![]() Armstrong shouts “I’m not your model citizen/I’m not your daughter/I’m not your bitch/guess I’m un-American.” It’s about being yourself and not living for someone else’s expectations. It has the raging tone and “don’t-give-a-shit” nature longtime fans crave. The roaring riff and Armstrong’s howl grabs your attention as soon as the song kicks off. Things go back to business as usual on the intense “Unamerican.” With a hard-hitting vibe and Armstrong’s powerful vocals, this is classic Dead Sara. They don’t address heavy topics, like depression, but she does admit to feeling unhappy, which can be difficult. With frequent conversations about mental health, the lyrics seem poignant. It also feels more personal with singer Emily Armstrong addressing her own insecurities and trying to fight unhappiness. It sounds similar to the material on their second album. The latter is more melodic and energetic, yet keeps their fierce drive intact. The first song finds them messing around with synth and has a hint of pop resulting in a catchy song. Rather they’re both light and upbeat, but still, have ferocity to them. While they haven’t completely left that behind, a good chunk of the songs show off a new, lighter side to the band.ĭead Sara experiments with their sound on songs like “Anybody” and “Times to Remember.” Neither of the songs have the hard, raw sound we’re used to. It also finds them moving in a slightly different direction. The band has always been known for their raw, dirty hard rock sound. It’s their first release since bassist Chris Null’s departure in 2015. The six-track EP marks a new chapter for them. They ended the wait with their newly released EP, Temporary Things Taking Up Space. Since then fans have been eagerly awaiting new music from the rock band. It’s been three years since Dead Sara released their second album, Pleasure to Meet You. Death did not tell her when she was going to die or whether her hour was assigned before that of Rebeca, but ordered her to begin sewing her own shroud on the next sixth of April. Fernanda was present several times and did not see her, in spite of the fact that she was so real – so human and on one occasion asked of Amaranta the favor of threading a needle. She saw it because it was a woman dressed in blue with long hair, with a sort of antiquated look, and with a certain resemblance to Pilar Ternera during the time when she had helped with the chores in the kitchen. She saw it on one burning afternoon sewing with her on the porch a short time after Meme had left for school. At the final moment, however, Amaranta did not feel frustrated, but, on the contrary, free of all bitterness because death had awarded her the privilege of announcing itself several years ahead of time. "If you've 'eard the East a-callin', you won't never 'eed naught else.“The only thing that did not keep in mind in her fearsome plan was that in spite of her pleas to God she might die before Rebeca. ![]() Where the silence 'ung that 'eavy you was 'arf afraid to speak!īut that's all shove be'ind me - long ago an' fur awayĪn' there ain't no 'busses runnin' from the Bank to Mandalay Īn' I'm learnin' 'ere in London what the ten-year soldier tells: We useter watch the steamers an' the hathis pilin' teak.

Mi país queda lejos, y no sé qué ocurre en él. A la luz de esta etimología, la nostalgia se nos revela como el dolor de la ignorancia. En español, “añoranza” proviene del verbo “añorar”, que proviene a su vez del catalán enyorar, derivado del verbo latino ignorare (ignorar, no saber de algo). Los checos, al lado de la palabra “nostalgia” tomada del griego, tienen para la misma noción su propio sustantivo: stesk, y su propio verbo una de las frases de amor checas más conmovedoras es styska se mi po tobe: “te añoro ya no puedo soportar el dolor de tu ausencia”. El islandés, una de las lenguas europeas más antiguas, distingue claramente dos términos: söknudur: nostalgia en su sentido general y heimfra: morriña del terruño.

From a few millimeters to the biggest moth species, with a wingspan of 10″ (25 cm), moths may vary in size. North America is home to around 11,000 moth species. In comparison to the number of butterfly species, there are just about 160,000 moths species in the world. The order Lepidoptera contains moths, which are winged insects. Moths and butterflies are distinguished by their nocturnal traits. Moths are most commonly seen in the air after dark or as dusk approaches. When moths are most active is the third method of identification. As they stand on things, most butterfly species keep their wings upright. Moths and butterflies may be distinguished by this characteristic. When resting, moths keep their patterned wings flat and parallel to the ground. Second, the way that moths place their wings as they land on objects may also help with identification. The saw-edged antennae of moths, which give the long feelers a fuzzy look, are commonly used to identify them. Isabella Tiger Moth (Pyrrharctia isabella)įeathery antennae, nocturnal behavior, and the position of their wings while resting may be used to identify moths.Southern Flannel Moth (Megalopyge opercularis).Twin-spotted sphinx moth identification.Twin-Spotted Sphinx Moth (Smerinthus jamaicensis).Argent and Sable Black and White Moth (Rheumaptera hastata).Common Gray Moth (Anavitrinella pampinaria).Common Brown House Moth (Hofmannophila pseudospretella).White-striped black moth identification.White-Striped Black Moth (Trichodezia albovittata).Purple Thorn Moth (Selenia tetralunaria).Beautiful wood nymph moth identification.Beautiful Wood Nymph Moth (Eudryas grata).Blotched Emerald Moth (Comibaena bajularia).Types of Moths - Names, Pictures, and Identification Guide.An error has occurred the feed is probably down.Sourdough for Science: Part 4: How to pick the best sourdough starters.Sourdough for Science: Part 5: The Secret Lives of Starters.Sourdough for Science: Part 6: Taste Test.Then something changed without warning….Rocktober: Careers for the Sons (and Daughters) of Martha.Rocktober: Minerals Day of Earth Science Week.Find out more about the natural happenings at Prairie Ridge at our What Time is it in Nature Archive!

The Rosy Maple Moth is a common nighttime visitor at Prairie Ridge. ![]() As with other insects that use this strategy, the adults live a few weeks at most and spend the majority of their lives as caterpillars. In fact, they do not feed at all! Adult Rosy Maple Moths rely entirely on the fat reserves they build up as larvae. While the larvae are sometimes considered pests of trees due to their leaf munching habits, the adults are completely harmless. Here in the south, there can be up to three generations of moths produced each year, but the last generation will overwinter as pupae underground before emerging as adults in late spring. The larvae, commonly called Green-striped Mapleworms, will feed in large groups at first, but will spread out as they grow. Female Rosy Maple Moths lay their eggs on the leaves of an appropriate tree so that the larvae can begin eating as soon as they hatch. These moths are forest dwellers, as the caterpillars feed on a variety of trees, including maples. It’s hard to mistake a Rosy Maple Moth for anything else. While another moth, the Pink Prominent, has similar colors, the markings and shape of the wings are different and the abdomen is pink instead of yellow. The Rosy Maple Moth has an average wingspan of under 2 inches, making it one of the smaller moths in the silkworm group, but it is a stunning insect with deep yellow and bright pink markings. It belongs to the silkmoth family Saturniidae, which includes several of the world’s largest and showiest moths. The Rosy Maple Moth is a very common moth in North Carolina. It’s National Moth Week, and people around the globe are learning about, observing, and celebrating moths!
