Unless we can ensure that the Economy is kept subservient to our Ecology, we will self-destruct.Īchieving such ecological dominance will be an uphill struggle, since many of the developed world's leading economists are population neutralists. When empowered by such an Economy, this greed will ultimately run counter to the inherent ecological constraints of the planet. The global economic recession which began in 2008 was driven by that very greed that Smith identified as having ‘no limit or certain boundary’. The desire for food is limited in every man by the narrow capacity of the human stomach but the desire for the conveniences and ornaments of building, dress, equipage and household furniture, seem to have no limit or certain boundary.Īdam Smith had foreseen the fatal flaw in the Economy-it is a human artefact that gives unlimited power to our Selfish Genes, with no negative feedback controls. In 1776, the pioneer Scottish economist, Adam Smith, issued a prophetic warning in his book The Wealth of Nations: This also coincided with another major change-the development of a Global Economy. Paul Crutzen, the Nobel Laureate, has recently proposed that in the latter half of the eighteenth century, the world could be said to have entered a new geological epoch which we should call the Anthropocene, since that was when human activities, spurred on by the Industrial Revolution, began to dominate all the ecosystems on earth ( Crutzen & Stoermer 2000). The world's population is now 6.8 billion, and we have achieved dominion over every living thing. In the intervening centuries, we have done just that. Hence it made sense to enjoin mankind to:īe fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. When the Book of Genesis was written 3000 years ago, there would only have been a few million people on earth. Thus, the developed world must curb its profligate use of non-renewable energy and the developing world its exponential population growth, if we are to arrest Global Warming in the years to come. But there remains a major credibility gap people have yet to draw the obvious conclusion that since Global Warming is the result of human activities, too many people will only exacerbate the problem. Al Gore (2006) chose his words wisely when he called it ‘An inconvenient truth’. Perhaps this is a lesson we must learn for the future International Organizations, Governments and Religious Leaders will be the last to appreciate the gravity of the current situation, and the last to implement effective measures to halt further population growth.Īs Global Warming makes its presence increasingly felt all around the world, more and more people are beginning to accept it as a reality. It is therefore surprising that when the United Nations announced its Eight Millennium Development Goals in 2000, halting population growth was not one of them it has since been added as an afterthought. Few can be left in any doubt that calling a halt to future population growth in both developed and developing countries is the greatest challenge now facing our world. World experts, in a wide range of disciplines, explore the ways in which the inexorable increase in human numbers is exhausting conventional energy supplies, accelerating environmental pollution and Global Warming, and providing an increasing number of Failed States where civil unrest prevails. The papers that follow in this issue of the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society provide us with an intellectual feast, even though they will leave a bitter taste in the mouth afterwards. As in much of Dreijer's works, there are no obvious gender roles or puritanical sexual norms to be found in the video, and Dreijer's obfuscation of these classic romantic tropes makes the aching, thirsty emotional core of the work even clearer. That sense of queer freedom is everywhere on Radical Romantics - in the delightfully ungendered pet names ("smoothie," "bird seed") on "Looking For A Ghost" the sapphic eroticism of "Shiver" the depth of their delivery on "Tapping Fingers" or the girlish helium voice on "Carbon Dioxide." It's perhaps most striking in the androgynous characters Dreijer portrays in their music videos - as in " Kandy," where they play both roles in a freaky, sensual encounter: both the bored, suit-wearing office drone in a club's dimly lit room and the grotesque, glitter-speckled, balding singer who libidinously performs for them, eventually tying them to the chair with a mic cable and earning a smile. "I do not have to think about gender so much, which is amazing, because in real life, you have to think about it all the time." "Music works for me as a totally open space," they told Pitchfork recently. This practice of pitch-shifting and vocal processing allows them to perform femininity, masculinity, androgyny - sometimes all in the same song, sometimes all at once. Dreijer's shape-shifting vocals have been a staple of their music since their time as one-half of The Knife, the subversive and now defunct pop duo they formed with their brother Olof. What might make romance radical? For starters, Fever Ray's world feels largely unrestricted by the norms of gender. It is interested in love not as a destination but, as Rich would put it, an ongoing process, and gives a glimpse into the many approaches - bravado and vulnerability, experimentation and hesitation, violence and delicacy - that process requires. Radical Romantics, Fever Ray's new record, looks at love even more broadly: romantic connection, sexual desire, the making of family, the fostering of community, the rewards of commitment. Fever Ray's icy, alluring self-titled debut was created in the isolating haze of new parenthood the follow-up, 2017's magnificent Plunge, is a thrilling and righteous exploration of queer eroticism. In their work as Fever Ray, artist Karin Dreijer has long been finely attuned to Rich's definition of love, using their eerie, experimental pop music to excavate its more complicated or marginalized incarnations. In March 2018, the park was closed indefinitely by the City of Portland, citing safety concerns related to structural issues in the underground parking garage. In 2007, The Oregonian called it "a relic of 1970s urban design". Olin called O'Bryant "a real ugly duckling".

AreĬomment recorded on the 17 November 'Starter of the Day' page by Amy Thay, Coventry: The people who enjoy how mystifying, puzzling and hard it is. Mathematicians are not the people who find Maths easy they are The Ecto-2 is just a regular LEGO motorcycle in white. This is the only real negative aspect of the new set. While some of them could be left off, others are an integral of the overall look of the vehicle (like the taillights), so they have to be applied – unless you want to do some redesigning. Many of these stickers are tiny and/or hard to apply. On the new Ecto-1 the same printed curved slopes and license plates are used, and the pinstripes on the sides of the vehicle are also printed, but the rest of the decorations are stickers. This includes the curved slopes with the Ghostbusters logo, as well as the license-plates. Both vehicles are excellent in this regard, and have an overall very pleasing shape, plus lots of cool ghostbusting gadgets on top.īecause the first Ecto-1 is a LEGO Ideas set, all decorations are printed. Building larger, but still minifig-size, vehicles like these is a very interesting experience, and you can learn quite a bit from the building techniques. Also, four minifigs can fit inside much more comfortably that in the first set, where one of them had to lie down at the back. First off, the side-doors and the back can be opened – enhancing the playability of the set. The two versions of the Ecto-1 are actually quite similar in size, but there are some definite improvements on the newer one. Ecto-1 measures over 4” (11cm) high, 8” (21cm) long and 2” (7cm) wide. Includes 5 minifigures: Abby Yates, Erin Gilbert, Jillian Holtzmann, Patty Tolan and Kevin, plus a Mayhem figure. Take aim and zap Mayhem to contain him in the trap or help Kevin join the fight on the Ecto-2 motorbike! Battle the flying phantom or role-play other fun scenes from the 2016 Ghostbusters movie. So let’s start with the official description of the new set: Speed after Mayhem with the LEGO Ghostbusters Ecto-1 & 2 vehicles! The demon is getting away! Pack the gear into the rear of the Ecto-1, start up the engine and help the Ghostbusters heroes get ready for a thrilling hot pursuit. Another important difference is that the first set was released under the LEGO Ideas line, while the second one is a wide-release set under the LEGO Ghostbusters theme. A couple of the most significant differences are that in the first movie the Ecto-1 was based on an ambulance and in the second movie a traditional hearse, and in the first movie all the Ghostbusters heroes were male and in the second movie they are female. I’m not going to talk about or compare the films, as there are plenty of discussions on them already, but focus on what’s relevant from the perspective of LEGO fans. The previously released #21108 LEGO Ideas Ecto-1 set was a tribute to the original Ghostbusters movie, while the #75828 LEGO Ghostbusters Ecto-1 & Ecto-2 is tied in with the new Ghostbusters film, scheduled for release on July 15th. We have discussed the new set previously (see: LEGO Ghostbusters Ecto-1 & Ecto-2 Coming!), but today I wanted to explore it in a bit more detail, and also compare it to the earlier version. This is the second LEGO Ghostbusters set with an Ecto-1, and both of them are still available (which is quite unusual, as LEGO normally doesn’t release similar sets at the same time). If you haven't seen the sounds in action, you really should have a listen.One of the most interesting new LEGO set released this month is the #75828 LEGO Ghostbusters Ecto-1 & Ecto-2. Sounds are then randomly triggered with the remote control. No sounds are included with the module when we ship it to you, but you can easily find and download your favorite Ghostbusters music and sounds, then copy up to 4 minutes of total sound and music onto the sound module. Alarm beep sounds that play when you turn the master power off.Īt the same time any of the above sounds are playing, you can also play up to five of your own custom sounds, which can be easily loaded onto the sound module using a computer.Door open/close sounds sampled from a real Cadillac.Includes unique start and stop sounds, and even a great "engine stall" sound that will be triggered 40% of the time when you start the engine. Authentic Cadillac ambulance engine sound that loops until you stop it.Looping siren that starts when you start it and plays until you stop it.This provides the most realistic sound possible, including: This kit has not one, but two sound modules, and together these modules can play four sounds at the same time. There are many mosaic lamps, and finding the right one will depend on your aesthetics.Īdding mosaic globe lamps to your room is an easy way to infuse some colour and celebrate the interior theme you want to highlight. Even though Turkish lamps are ethnic, they fit perfectly well in a modern home setting.Įven as they fulfil the basic functionality of providing light, Turkish Moroccan lamps also reinforce the interiors by simply adding a decorative touch. Mid-sized lamps are often the most preferred as they require little space and greatly enhance the room’s ambiance. Do you intend to use it as a decorative item? Do you want to illuminate particular areas of the room? Do you plan to place it on a table, or do you want to hang it in a specific spot? The functionality of the Turkish lamp you choose needs to be determined so that you can buy it as per your specific requirements. Lighting up your bedroom or living room is an art if done correctly, it will significantly enhance that space. If the colour looks pale or bleached, you are dealing with a fake copy of the original Turkish style lamps. Many cheap quality glasses get painted, but you will be able to spot the difference when you switch on the Turkish lamp. Only genuine handmade mosaic glass will have a deep and rich colour. It proves that the coloured glass is genuine. Turkish lamps get handmade, and when you tap on the glass, you will get a good sound. If the quality and colour of the glass don’t look good, you should avoid buying such lamps. Avoid any mosaic lamps made of cheap materials, as they will not last long. The high-quality material ensures durability. Original coloured glass and metal often get used to creating a Turkish Moroccan Lamp masterpiece. Keeping the light at eye level will enable you to look at things and read comfortably. If the height is correct, you don’t have to adjust the lamp each time you want to read or look at something. HeightĪs Turkish table lamps often get placed on tables, you need to consider the height of the light too. The metal material will add to the overall weight of the lamp. It is best to decide beforehand where you need to keep the heavyweight handmade mosaic lamp, as you can’t keep moving them regularly.Īpart from glass, the Turkish Moroccan lamps’ base is made from bronze metal. Some Turkish floor lamps have more than ten globes. If there are more than three globes, the weight will be more. The weight of the Turkish lamps will increase substantially depending on the number of globes the lamps have. One of the essential things you need to remember is that handmade glass is heavy. Most people choose to keep the handmade mosaic lamp in their bedroom or living room as it adds to the room’s ambiance and enhances its appearance. Mosaic globe lamps that are compact don’t occupy much space, and you can choose to keep them wherever you want. If the Turkish lanterns are heavyweight, you cannot move them quickly. If you want to move the lamp from one room to another, you should choose a Turkish Moroccan Lamp that is lightweight and compact. When buying Turkish Moroccan hanging lamps, one of the first things you need to consider is the size and weight. Let us look at some factors you should consider when shopping for Turkish Moroccan lamps.

Moreover, requests for locations of sacred sites or culturally important places that could be affected by the pipeline were narrow requests that did not cover the range of concerns that native peoples had. There was some hesitation for the tribe’s leaders to weigh in on a highly politicized issue while trying to build a consensus around federal recognition.Įmanuel: When developers reached out to tribes it was too late to make a difference in planning decisions. Recommendations and best practices of the federal government advise permitting agencies to consult with native peoples regardless of their federal recognition status, but the letter of the law only compels agencies to consult with tribes that have federal recognition.Īgencies that ignore these recommendations, and stick to the minimum legal standard, are creating barriers for state-recognized tribes that may have a big stake in the outcome, but can’t get their foot in the door.ĭuring the pipeline planning, the Lumbee Tribe was in the middle of a federal recognition bid. Most of the Native Americans in North Carolina belong to non-federally recognized tribes. TA: What were some of the obstacles faced by the Lumbee to participating in pipeline planning?Įmanuel: It’s hard to talk about Native American issues in the Southeast without considering the interests of non-federally recognized tribes. This place, with its gorgeous night sky, would have experienced light pollution from a telecomm tower and aviation beacon included in the station plan. The terminus in Prospect would have included a large above ground metering station where the pipeline would have tied into the rest of the eastern N.C. Prospect is one of the oldest and most prominent Lumbee communities. TA: Were there other concerns about the pipeline raised by tribes in North Carolina?Įmanuel: Whether or not the developers planned it, the route they chose through North Carolina would have been through traditional and contemporary areas of three tribes: the Lumbee, Coharie and Haliwa-Saponi.įor Lumbee people, one of the biggest impacts would have come from the decision to put the southern terminus in Prospect, a rural community in Robeson County. Today, we honor that past by taking care of swamps and wetlands in any way that we can. There’s a long colonial record of outside powers unable to navigate through this region, getting lost, or chalking up our territory in eastern North Carolina to one giant swamp where no one would want to go. The Abstract: Historically, what is the significance of water to the Lumbee?Įmanuel: In Lumbee history, our people were isolated because the terrain was inhospitable to outsiders. How do we ask for and obtain consent from the river? What does it mean to learn that someone is planning to harm a loved one in this way whether you like it or not? Native American tribes across North America and Indigenous peoples throughout the world often conceptualize rivers as beings. This is a common sentiment expressed not just in my tribe. This ties in a belief that some indigenous people hold of water as a being. Removing wetland forests also has implications for water temperature.Ĭumulatively, all of those things combine to change the aquatic environment in ways that are detrimental to plants, animals and people who rely on the water for various purposes. Other impacts come from clear-cutting of forested wetlands adjacent to streams near pipeline crossings. As you dig trenches and disturb the land, you increase sedimentation, which can drastically alter stream environments. TA: What were some of the potential impacts of the pipeline for water that concerned members of tribes in North Carolina?Įmanuel: Many of the water impacts would have occurred during construction. The Abstract spoke to Emanuel about the case study: In the journal Water, Ryan Emanuel, a professor at North Carolina State University and Lumbee Tribe member, co-authored a case study that evaluated the potential impacts the pipeline would have had on water quality and the challenges faced by Indigenous people in North Carolina during pipeline planning. The now-canceled Atlantic Coast Pipeline project would have crossed streams and wetlands important to Indigenous people in North Carolina, raising concerns from tribes about negative impacts to water quality and how their voices were unheard in pipeline planning. |
