The New York State Urban Development Corporation saw in the piers a sacrificial milieu of impurity and devaluation. Rivera described the event as follows: “It’s called a sweep. Not even a fucking eviction. A sweep, like we’re trash.” [...]
The clearance operation of the piers took place under the New York Slum Clearance Commission and Law and its frothy utopian verbiage of “sanitizing” an environment [...] unsuitable for human life. [...] The demolition of the piers showed the violent clash of two confronting forms of urbanism. [...] [Manhattan’s] working class industrial base was transformed into a corporate and service-based economy and New York State Governor Nelson A. Rockefeller, together with city planners, implemented policies to frame Manhattan as a place for work, but not living. [...] At the same time, these discussions were imbricated with racial depictions and xenophobic targets: most of the constructions beleaguered in this operation were inhabited or used by black people, Latin Americans, migrants, and displaced communities. [...]
---
The piers thrived with life. [...]
The notion of the piers as insalubrious areas that needed to be wiped out gained traction in the 1980s -- during the peak of the HIV/AIDS crisis [...]. This narrative concerning the piers was active in New York City until the early 2000s, until Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Governor George Pataki opened the Greenwich Village segment of Hudson River Park on May 30, 2003. The highway was finally demolished [...] and a series of gates were erected to keep Pier 45 closed after 1am [...]. The previous residents of these spaces were just routine casualties.
The new proposal opted for a unitary, straightforward, apparently open but constantly surveilled set of facilities, where constant circulation (by car, skate, bike, foot) was central, and framed the conception of the piers as a passing point. This contrasted the labyrinthic and fragmented former setting, with multitudes of hidden spaces that provided a sense of privacy and safety [...].
---
Members of these groups were ostracized and deprived of typical considerations during the outbreak of an epidemic: protocols of announcement, transparency in information, research, and measure-taking. Meanwhile, the communities that congregated around the piers, and the piers themselves, helped spread information about AIDS, made transparent the available data, and offered care among affected communities. [...]
This environmental activism, where kin was formed [...], happened in places like the piers. [...] They were an escape from the constant scrutiny of authorities and from homophobic attacks [...].
---
GRID (Gay Related Immune Deficiency), as well as the common “gay plague” and “gay cancer” epithets, strengthened the idea of a specifically gay disease related to a certain environment-specific villain. Journalists, following the views of public health authorities, blamed the epidemic on [...] the places gay people frequented. [...] Physicians thus described a spatial configuration located in downtown Manhattan [...] which [...] posed a threat [...]. This claim had terrible consequences for the activist spaces and urban fabrics that confronted the epidemic [...]. The remnants of Pier 45 were demolished. The activist history of these places was “cleared.” [...]
---
When Sylvia Rivera shouted to the authorities “stay away from my house!” while being evicted, “house” not only referred to the physical construction of her home. She was confronting teleological progress with the project of a[n] [...] assemblage based on [...] mutual caring [...] and defying colonial narratives of race, sex, gender, and nature. The territorialization of epidemics, identities, and citizenship not only shape the built environment, but the built environment shapes them in return. Architecture thereby assumed the form of an expanded spatial practice [...].
When Rivera was trying to save her home from demolition, she said, “there’s so many fucking buildings in this fucking Manhattan.”
What New York City was losing with the demolition of Pier 45 was not just a series of dwellings. It was losing a complex ecosystem of coexistence.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) didn't report a staggering $7 billion in award-level obligations and outlays during fiscal year 2022, according to an inspector general audit released this week.
The EPA Office of the Inspector General (OIG) determined that the agency underreported its award-level outlays by $5.8 billion, or 99.9%, and its award-level obligations by $1.2 billion, or 12.9% during FY22, the period between October 2021 and September 2022. The agency further failed to report any of its Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act outlays and under-reported its coronavirus pandemic-related outlays.
"The lack of complete and accurate reporting also led to taxpayers being initially misinformed about the EPA’s spending, and policy-makers who relied on the data may not have been able to effectively track federal spending," the OIG report concluded.
In response to the audit, House Energy and Commerce Committee Chair Cathy McMorris Rodgers, R-Wash., blasted the EPA and called for increased transparency into its activities. 
"It’s outrageous and unacceptable that the EPA cannot keep track of its spending or inform Congress — and the American people — of how it is using taxpayer dollars," McMorris Rodgers said in a statement Thursday. "This eye-opening report only further highlights the need for more transparency at the EPA."
"It also raises questions about whether the agency is incapable of managing its record-high budget or if the agency is attempting to hide the amount of taxpayer dollars it is spending to advance the administration’s radical rush-to-green agenda," she added. "The Energy and Commerce Committee will continue holding this administration accountable for its actions that are driving up costs across the board and hurting Americans."
MICHIGAN DEMOCRAT SIGNED NDA INVOLVING CCP-TIED COMPANY, DOCUMENTS SHOW, CONTRADICTING HER PAST CLAIMS
The EPA ultimately corrected its FY22 figures in May 2023 as a result of the OIG audit while making configuration changes a month later. Overall, the inspector general made five recommendations which it said the agency agreed to make.
The report, meanwhile, comes as the EPA both manages a massive green energy fund and continues to request a larger budget. The Inflation Reduction, Democrats' massive climate and tax bill passed in 2022, created the $27 billion Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund, which in turn establishes a national green bank to fund green projects nationwide.
HOUSE REPUBLICANS OPEN PROBE INTO BIDEN ADMIN FOR OPENING PUBLIC LANDS TO FOREIGN OWNERSHIP
And the White House is requesting that Congress approve a FY24 EPA budget of more than $12 billion, a record level. Republicans have aimed to reduce the EPA budget to about $6 billion, which would be the agency's smallest budget since the early 1990s.
"The Biden administration is using EPA as a pass through for taxpayer dollars to fund left-wing groups that aim to get Democrats elected, not improve the environment," Mandy Gunasekara, a Heritage Foundation visiting fellow who served as the EPA's chief of staff during the Trump administration, told Fox News Digital.
"A failure to report $7 billion is absurd and unacceptable, but also symbolic of how Team Biden operates: prioritizing their political goals over the needs of the American people," she continued. "I’m glad Chair Rodgers is monitoring this and hope the committee brings forth the agency’s Chief Financial Officer to account for this serious oversight."
The EPA did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

If Windows just added the Chat GPT based CoPilot to your computer and you want to get rid if it, there are two levels of "disabling" that can be done.
Tumblr media
If you have this icon, it's copilot
To do a basic disable:
Click Settings from your taskbar and navigate to Personalization
Click Taskbar
In the first section, Taskbar Items, toggle Copilot to OFF
Tada. No more stupid icon, no more annoying Copilot preview.
But this leaves Windows free to re-enable it on it's own! It probably won't but it could. Because it's in a "preview" right now, disabling it at this level means it could be turned back on once the preview ends and it's in full release. UGH. No way to tell if they will do this, but it is possible.
If you'd like to disable it more fully, you'll need to have admin access, as well as the Group Policy Editor.
Windows 10 and 11 don't include GPE by default in their Home or Student editions, but it can be enabled very easily by following these steps.
(If you have Windows Enterprise or Pro, the Group Policy Editor is already installed so you can skip the stuff in that link and go right to these next steps)
To disable it at an admin level:
From an ADMIN account
Click start
Type CMD in the search
Tumblr media
(If you are not logged into an admin account you cannot run group policy editor. Instead of logging out and back in at this step, just click Run as Administrator on the right side panel and enter your password or PIN when prompted)
This will open a black screen like this:
Tumblr media
Click on the space just after the bit about system32 if there's no cursor
Type gpedit and hit enter
You should now have this screen )
Tumblr media
(If there are little red Xs on this screen it means you are not logged in as an admin and cannot change anything. You'll have to go back and log in as an admin)
Double click on the following options in this order
>User configuration
> Administrative templates
>Windows components
>Windows Copilot
Here's where it gets a little confusing!
The policy is to turn OFF Windows Co-Pilot, so you want to change it from "Not Configured" to ENABLED. Click the little spot next to Enabled, then in the bottom right click Apply, then click OK
Tumblr media
Yes. We're enabling the disabling. it's a code thing, just roll with it lol.
Close the Group Policy Editor window and you're all done.
No more annoying icon, no more access to the obnoxious AI thief.

Yesterday and Today (also rendered as "Yesterday" ... and Today in part of the original packaging) is a studio album by the English rock band the Beatles. Released in the United States and Canada in June 1966, it was their ninth album issued on Capitol Records and twelfth American release overall. Typical of the Beatles' North American discography until 1967, the album contains songs that Capitol had withheld from its configurations of the band's recent EMI albums, along with songs that the group had released elsewhere on non-album singles. Among its 11 tracks are songs from the EMI albums Help! and Rubber Soul, and three new 1966 recordings that would appear on Revolver in countries outside North America.
Yesterday and Today is remembered primarily for the controversy surrounding its original cover image. Known as the "butcher cover", it was taken by photographer Robert Whitaker and shows the band dressed in white coats and covered with decapitated baby dolls and pieces of raw meat. Although the photo was intended to be part of a larger work critiquing the adulation afforded the Beatles, the band members insisted it was a statement against the Vietnam War. Others interpreted it as the Beatles protesting the record company's policy of "butchering" their albums for the North American market. In response to retailers' outrage at the gory subject matter, Capitol immediately withdrew the LP and replaced the cover image with a shot of the band posed around a "steamer" trunk.

How to Disable Copilot on Windows 11
Tumblr media
Windows Copilot, Microsoft's new AI assistant, can assist you with a variety of tasks, such as answering questions, changing system settings, and creating AI images. However, if you're not a fan of Copilot or simply don't need it, you can remove its taskbar icon or disable it entirely on your Windows 11 PC. Here, we'll show you how.
How to Remove the Copilot Icon From the Windows 11 Taskbar
By default, the Copilot icon appears in the Windows 11 taskbar. However, if you prefer not to have it there but still want to use it occasionally, it's easy to hide the Copilot icon. Simply right-click anywhere on an empty spot on your taskbar and select Taskbar settings. In the Settings window that appears, turn off the toggle next to Copilot.
Tumblr media
This should remove the Copilot icon from the taskbar. You can still access Copilot by pressing the Win + C keyboard shortcut in Windows 11.
How to Completely Disable Copilot via Group Policy Settings
Although hiding the Copilot is quite easy, it does not turn it off completely, and you might inadvertently access it. Fortunately, you can turn off Copilot completely via the Local Group Policy Editor on PCs running the Professional, Education, or Enterprise edition of Windows 11. - Press Win + S to access the search menu. - Type gpedit.msc in the search box and select the first result that appears. - Select Yes when the User Account Control (UAC) prompt appears. - Use the left pane to navigate to User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows Copilot. - Double-click the Turn off Windows Copilot policy on your right. - Select the Enabled option. - Hit Apply followed by OK.
Tumblr media
Once you complete the above steps, Copilot will be disabled on your Windows 11 PC and you won't be able to access it even with the keyboard shortcut. If you want to re-enable Copilot later, repeat the above steps and set the Turn off Windows Copilot policy to Not configured or Disabled.
How to Completely Disable Copilot by Modifying Registry Files
Another way to disable Copilot on Windows 11 involves modifying registry files. However, since editing the registry can be risky, you should follow the steps carefully. Also, be sure to back up all the registry files or create a restore point. This will allow you to restore the registry files in case something goes wrong. Once you’ve done that, here’s what you need to do to disable Copilot via the Registry Editor: - Press Win + R to open the Run dialog. - Type regedit in the text box and press Enter to open the Registry Editor. - Select Yes when the User Account Control (UAC) prompt appears. - Use the left pane to navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > Policies > Microsoft > Windows. - Right-click the Windows key and select New > Key. Name it WindowsCopilot. - Right-click on the WindowsCopilot DWORD, go to New, and select DWORD (32-bit) Value from the submenu. Name the DWORD TurnOffWindowsCopilot. - Double-click the TurnOffWindowsCopilot DWORD, type 1 in the text field, and click OK. - Restart your PC for the changes to take effect.
Tumblr media
And that’s about it. Windows Copilot will be disabled on your PC. To re-enable it in the future, repeat the above steps and set the TurnOffWindowsCopilot DWORD value to 0. You can also delete the TurnOffWindowsCopilot DWORD instead.
Get Rid of Copilot on Windows 11
While Windows Copilot is a powerful tool, not everyone may want to use it. Fortunately, it’s possible to get rid of it. The above steps will help you achieve your goal, whether you want to keep Copilot out of sight or turn it off entirely. source Read the full article

Well, we of the yellow contingent love you too! Red comes first. Yes. Take care of yourself. Then green, then yellow. I want to hear what colors she talked about. Will add more if anything interesting pops up!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Rainbows, lightning (who could forget jinglei), and 88 has been firmly established as scarlet red (ok, and also lavender lol). I vow to start becoming a pure fan after Weibo night if these hints are nothing more than industrial sugar. We know they are friends; outside of that, all I know is I love them equally and will continue to support them in all their endeavors. I will continue to look at the candy as nothing more than a neat marketing tool and see how creative they can get.
Right now, 30 needs all the different CP's he can get to untie from that one who is really dropping so much sugar it seems too much at this point given the circumstances. If I were him I'd steer clear of the off-drama CP's with industrial candy outside of what he did with ZYT - I have heard rumors that he ZJM will go all in with the CP thing, but let's hope they just mean promotional stuff on screen like NBY.
I am nervous about too much CP stuff leaking these days, so no re-blogging for now. If you are a Bird Egg, feel free to roost here or in the private group. CP's are all about letting your imagination take you to places that are usually not true, but on occasion you might actually be right. Very few CPF ever discover if there pair is indeed BE. These days, there are contracts involving maintaining CP business too, so everyone be a rational egg.
I feel this Weibo night will be special though. Either way, we might get to see a tiny bit of interaction hopefully. They used to always be right after each other in the line up, so maybe they will be sitting near each other? The sitting configuration will be different now that the masking policy is different I think. Either way, we want to see them in the same frame in a film or drama again to live out an adult storyline that will make Bird Eggs happy.

Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman sign agreement to manufacture F-35 core fuselages in Germany
Fernando Valduga By Fernando Valduga 02/17/23 - 14:00 in Military
Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman signed a letter of intent with Rheinmetall AG as a promising strategic source of supply for the F-35 central fuselage in Germany.
This potential partnership would establish a second integrated assembly line of the central fuselage (IAL) of the F-35 in Germany, expanding the significant role that European industry plays in the F-35 program.
“Lockheed Martin has been a committed partner with Germany for more than 50 years. The F-35 program will continue to strengthen our strategic partnerships with key industry partners in the coming years," said Mike Shoemaker, Vice President of F-35 Customer Programs at Lockheed Martin. "The production of the central fuselage of the F-35 in Germany will be vital to meet the growing global demand for F-35s, which play a vital role in the security of the 21st century."
Tumblr media
Northrop Grumman is the main partner of the Lockheed Martin F-35 program. In addition to manufacturing the central jet fuselage and wing coatings, the company is also responsible for the development, production and maintenance of sensor, avian and aircraft systems and training software.
"The central fuselage IAL is recognized as a state-of-the-art installation supported by Northrop Grumman's unique technologies, combining automation with our experience in aerospace tools," said Glenn Masukawa, vice president and manager of Northrop Grumman's F-35 program. "The involvement with Rheinmetall demonstrates our commitment to collaborate with international partners to manufacture advanced aircraft."
The F-35 program continues to develop these partnerships, using companies with the right technical capabilities. The German industry has contributed to the F-35 program since its inception in 2001. Lockheed Martin continues to actively explore additional opportunities for industrial participation that will allow partnerships throughout the German industry and create jobs in the manufacture, maintenance, training, research and development of 5th generation fighter aircraft.
Tumblr media
Cooperation with Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman in the F-35 program highlights the importance of Rheinmetall for national security policy and will bring essential capabilities to Germany. Rheinmetall can contribute its experience as an integrated technology group in the production of complex components and as an aviation certified company for cooperation.
"The long-standing partnership between Lockheed Martin and Rheinmetall, as well as the very close ties that have existed for decades between the Bundeswehr (German Armed Forces) and our company, lead to a genuine transfer of know-how to Germany as a localized industry," said Armin Papperger, CEO of Rheinmetall AG. "In addition, this configuration contributes significantly to minimizing risk, bringing national partners who are involved in a proven way."
To date, the F-35 operates from 37 bases and ships around the world, with nine nations operating F-35s on its territory. There are more than 890 F-35s in service today, with more than 1,890 pilots and 13,570 maintainers trained in the aircraft.

The exhibition “ESCRIBAS – 1st International Exhibition of Asémic Writing” presents a collection of works in images with abstract spellings, in the language that is becoming known as Asémic Writing. The set, made up of creations from different parts of the planet, also reveals the plurality of techniques and resources for the realization of these works, transiting between calligraphy, abstraction, engraving and even Visual Poetry.
This show promoted by Instituto Imersão Latina in partnership with The Virtual Museum of Visual Poetry, features 26 works by artists from 18 countries in the V Beagá Psiu Poético program, setting up the first international collective exhibition of this modality held in Brazil.
Spontaneously arising in different cultures throughout history, consolidated as an artistic language at the end of the 20th century, the Asémic Writing still very rare, has been gaining visibility, whether with exhibitions, publications, epistemological studies or placement on the Internet. This hybrid art, which transits between word and image, survived the typographic tsunami of the digital age, privileging handwriting (mainly), albeit abstract, as an expressive manifestation.
The works are made up of often invented letters, words that keep calligraphic remnants, sentence fragments that form thought-provoking abstract figures, configuring every movement that has thickened its network of supporters on all continents. It is an art free of academic labels, institutional immobilization and shallow public cultural policies for the promotion, collection and dissemination of experimental languages. Drawing, painting, infogravure, collages, digital art, interventions and photographs are just some of the resources present in this type of creations, presented here from a perspective of diversity of styles.
It is said of the works of Asémic Writing, which are purposely emptied of meaning – because they are absent of enunciation or message – which does not prevent them from making sense, from the perception of those who observe, since there is a silent dialogue between such contents and the entire lexical and imagery framework of those who immerse themselves in viewing these images.
Theorists of Art in Expanded Field or Expanded Poetry, usually place Asémic Writing in the broad scope of Experimental Poetry. So, provoking reflections on the poetic phenomenon in aspects that strain the limits of language, questioning aesthetic aspects of the hybridity characteristic of contemporary art and provoke the debate about where the compass of poetic making points in our time, are some of the premises that guided the curatorial process for this show.

Text
Ilkka Ruostetsaari, professor of political science at the University of Tampere, told the Uutissuomalainen news group (siirryt toiseen palveluun) that political parties in Finland right now are in a sort of arms race phase before the start of actual government formation talks.
At the top of the list for PM-elect Petteri Orpo (NCP) is a six billion euro cut in state spending. Before the elections, the NCP strongly highlighted the need for it, but that sum was not directly mentioned in the party's own position paper this week.
"This is a negotiating tactic on the part of the NCP. At this stage, it doesn't want to present overly demanding conditions," explains Ruostetsaari.
According to University of Helsinki researcher Jenni Karimäki, the need for reducing state spending by six billion euros was included in the NCP's paper, although the exact figure is not mentioned.
"There are many ways to interpret why the exact figure has been left out. Does it say that it would not necessarily be adhered to, or was it thought that it was self-evident?" said Karimäki.
The Swedish People's Party is currently in the position of kingmaker in government negotiations. The party has a lot of power in terms of whether to form a government based on the NCP and Finns Party, or the NCP and the Social Democrats.
The experts interviewed by Uutsisuomalainen pointed out that traditionally the Swedish People's Party has shown a lot of flexibility in government cooperation.
"The SPP can afford to take quite tough stands in this situation. But the party has long experience of cooperation in various government configurations, and remaining in the opposition is seen as quite a traumatic prospect within the party," said lkka Ruostetsaari.
Most important
Helsingin Sanomat points out (siirryt toiseen palveluun) that the Swedish People's Party and the Finns Party have many major policy differences, with immigration issues being one of the biggest. Finns Party chair Riikka Purra said in an interview with HS on Tuesday that if the SPP does not change its immigration positions, government cooperation will be impossible.
Swedish People's Party leader Anna-Maja Henriksson doesn't seem overly concerned about this, telling HS on Wednesday, "Isn't it the case that when we start forming a joint government, everyone has to be flexible? So that's the case also for the Finns Party."
The paper asked Henriksson which immigration policies are the most important for her party.
"At this point, I'm not having this kind of discussion yet. But what all parties have in common is that Finland needs to achieve economic growth. And when we say that we want growth, we have to understand that we have to create the conditions for it."
Gone and likely soon forgotten
Turun Sanomat (siirryt toiseen palveluun)reports that Finland's Justice Ministry has officially removed a long list of small political parties from the official party registry.
Now gone are the Citizens' Union, the Pirate Party, the Liberal Party, the Freedom League, the Animal Justice Party of Finland, the Citizens' Party, the Feminist Party, the Finnish Reform Movement, the Finnish Nation First, and the Seven Star Movement.
None of the parties had MPs elected in the 2023 or 2019 parliamentary elections. These parties also did not receive a minimum two percent of the votes cast throughout the country in the most recent elections.
Carbon sink decline
Helsingin Sanomat (siirryt toiseen palveluun)looks at a fresh report by the Finnish Environment Institute (Syke) saying that if a change is not seen soon, Finland's forests will shift from being a carbon sink to becoming a source of climate emissions .
This could mean that Finland will have difficulty meeting the climate obligations set by the EU for the period 2021–2025, and that Finland's own carbon neutrality goal for 2035 is also at risk.
This is all the result of a decrease in tree growth and an increase in timber harvesting.
It is unlikely that the shortfall can be made up by, for example, reducing traffic emissions. Based on Syke's report, the clearest means to remedy the situation is to reduce logging.
According to the Environment Institute's estimate, the annual timber harvest should be 65–68 million cubic metres. Today, an average of about 75 million cubic metres of forest are cut down in Finland each year.
Tampere flight connections
Aamulehti carries a report on the situation concerning air traffic services (siirryt toiseen palveluun) in Tampere.
Finnair will end flights between Tampere-Pirkkala and Helsinki-Vantaa replacing them with buses from the beginning of May because of the low passenger numbers on this route.
Since last November, Finnair has been canceling these flights one month at a time.
Marja Aalto, an air traffic specialist with Business Tampere, told the paper that the termination of Finnair's flights to Tampere-Pirkkala will not significantly affect the city's international accessibility.
"Tampere is more accessible than it was before the pandemic. We can fly directly from several European cities, and we have connections to the world through, for example, Munich and Amsterdam," she said.
Last May, the Latvian airline Air Baltic established its first home base outside the Baltic countries at Tampere-Pirkkala and opened six direct routes to Europe. Two of these, Oslo and Frankfurt flights, were however canceled during the last winter season.
Now, Amsterdam flights have been canceled for the whole of April-May. This is not because of a lack of bookings, but because of a move by the Dutch to reduce the number of flights at Schiphol Airport.
Aamulehti reports that in May, Air Baltic will start flights from Tampere-Pirkkala to Nice and Milan.
Last of a breed
Helsinki has yet one less old-time service.
Helsingin Uutiset tells readers (siirryt toiseen palveluun) that Veikko Tiainen, probably the capital's last typewriter repairman, has closed up his shop in the city's Alppila district.
Starting in the 1960s, Tiainen mainly repaired old typewriters, slightly newer electric typewriters, mechanical calculators, and sewing machines.
He told the paper although many mechanical typewriters these days are mostly showpieces or home decorations, people want to keep them in working order, and he had as much business as he could handle.
However, he decided to finally retire and there seems to be no one to take his place..
"No, I think I'm the last one. That's about it. Fixing these requires a lot of technical experience," Tiainen said in an interview with HU.
