I needed to find a way to jury-rig a similar effect for a fraction of the cost. ![]() Unfortunately, the asking price for that Trinnov processor is absurdly beyond my budget. The better solution is to install additional speakers in the center between the other height channels (Top Middle position). Those speakers are now fixed in place with wiring through the walls and ceiling, and I can’t move them without remodeling the room. This issue is compounded by the fact that the locations where I had installed speakers when I built the home theater (before immersive audio was a concern I gave any thought to) were less than ideal for Atmos. That, combined with a low ceiling, makes it difficult for just four speakers (two in the front of the room and two in the back) to image a sound above my head convincingly. ![]() My own home theater is a long room with a lot of space behind my seats. Nonetheless, for some of us, a limit of four height channels isn’t enough to fill the top of the room with sound.

Opensuse leap download6/27/2023 ![]() It will show you the list of the packages to be upgraded, removed or installed. Tumbleweed is rolling release distribution and hence it is advised to use dist-upgrade option. A brand new way of building openSUSE and a new type of a hybrid Linux.

Foto social empires6/27/2023 ![]() One of the sparks for the novel was a trip decades ago to the town of Hampi, in South India, the site of the ruins of the medieval Vijayanagara empire. ![]() By last July, Rushdie had made his final corrections on a new novel, titled “ Victory City.” They spent the pandemic together productively. It was his fifth marriage, and a happy one. In September, 2021, Rushdie married the poet and novelist Rachel Eliza Griffiths, whom he’d met six years earlier, at a PEN event. “But I had come to feel that it was a very long time ago, and that the world moves on,” he told me. He would have to learn to live with that.” He well understood that his demise would not require the coördinated efforts of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps or Hezbollah a cracked loner could easily do the job. ![]() “There were only varying degrees of insecurity. “There was no such thing as absolute security,” he wrote in his third-person memoir, “ Joseph Anton,” published in 2012. With every public gesture, it appeared, Rushdie was determined to show that he would not merely survive but flourish, at his desk and on the town. Would Solzhenitsyn have gone onstage with Bono or danced the night away at Moomba? Some people thought he should have adopted a more austere posture toward his predicament. “You can do what you like.”įischl hadn’t meant to offend, but sometimes there was a tone of derision in press accounts of Rushdie’s “indefatigable presence on the New York night-life scene,” as Laura M. “Well, I’m having dinner,” Rushdie replied. The painter Eric Fischl stopped by their table and said, “Shouldn’t we all be afraid and leave the restaurant?” I have to show them there’s nothing to be scared about.” One night, he went out to dinner with Andrew Wylie, his agent and friend, at Nick & Toni’s, an extravagantly conspicuous restaurant in East Hampton. I thought, The only way I can stop that is to behave as if I’m not scared. Recalling his first few months in New York, Rushdie told me, “People were scared to be around me. If he ever felt the need for some vestige of anonymity, he wore a baseball cap. He wrote book after book, taught, lectured, travelled, met with readers, married, divorced, and became a fixture in the city that was his adopted home. Within a year, Ahmadinejad was out of office and out of favor with the mullahs. Is he in the United States? If he is in the U.S., you shouldn’t broadcast that, for his own safety.” “Salman Rushdie, where is he now?” he said. Ahmadinejad smiled with a glint of malice. In 2012, during the annual autumn gathering of world leaders at the United Nations, I joined a small meeting of reporters with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the President of Iran, and I asked him if the multimillion-dollar bounty that an Iranian foundation had placed on Rushdie’s head had been rescinded. There were times, though, when the lingering threat made itself apparent, and not merely on the lunatic reaches of the Internet. But after settling in New York, in 2000, he lived freely, insistently unguarded. ![]() A long time ago, on Valentine’s Day, 1989, Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, declared Rushdie’s novel “The Satanic Verses” blasphemous and issued a fatwa ordering the execution of its author and “all those involved in its publication.” Rushdie, a resident of London, spent the next decade in a fugitive existence, under constant police protection. When Salman Rushdie turned seventy-five, last summer, he had every reason to believe that he had outlasted the threat of assassination.

Levels of judicial scrutiny6/26/2023 ![]() Windsor–the same case that the federal Supreme Court will hear this March–the U.S. In 2008, the California Supreme Court, in In re Marriage Cases, adopted a strict scrutiny standard to state laws that discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation. However, in recent years, lower courts have begun to employ their own scrutiny tests. Supreme Court has yet to issue a ruling that ascribes a level of scrutiny to questions of sexual orientation. Boren, the court also crafted a level of intermediate scrutiny–a presumption of unconstitutionality unless a law is “substantially related” to an “important” government interest–in cases of gender-based discrimination. In the years to follow, the court would declare that in addition to marriage, such issues as procreation, contraception, family relationships, and child rearing were classified as “fundamental,” all subject to the strict scrutiny standard for determining equal protection. The court’s invocation of “fundamental rights” here set the precedent for a new classification of protection. “Marriage,” he wrote, “is one of the ‘basic civil rights of man,’ fundamental to our very existence and survival… To deny this fundamental freedom on so unsupportable a basis as the racial classifications embodied in these statutes, classifications so directly subversive of the principle of equality at the heart of the 14th Amendment, is surely to deprive all the State’s citizens of liberty without due process of law.” In Loving, the court affirmed that such an abridgement must be necessary to serve a compelling government interest.Īnd Warren went a step further. ![]() Writing for a unanimous bench, Warren made clear that any racial classification that compromised equal protection was to be held to the strictest level of scrutiny. In Loving, Chief Justice Earl Warren wrote, “at the very least, the Equal Protection Clause demands that racial classifications, especially suspect in criminal statutes, be subjected to the ‘most rigid scrutiny…’ and, if they are ever to be upheld, they must be shown to be necessary to the accomplishment of some permissible state objective, independent of the racial discrimination which it was the object of the Fourteenth Amendment to eliminate.” In Loving, the court took up the question of whether a Virginia anti-miscegenation law – preventing interracial marriage–violated the 14th Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause. Virginia (1967), the court applied this strict scrutiny standard to rule in favor of equal protection for the first time. More than two decades later, in Loving v. in the wake of Pearl Harbor–was deemed constitutional, here, the court sought to clarify the language of the Carolene decision to construct a heightened level of judicial scrutiny for equal protection cases dealing with issues of racial classification–what would become known as the “strict scrutiny test.” Though the state interest in Hirabayashi–the implementation of curfews for Japanese-Americans living in the U.S. Such legislation, wrote then-Chief Justice Harlan Stone, is inherently suspect, “by very nature, odious to a free people whose institutions are founded upon the doctrine of equality.” Such categorization continued Stone, writing to a unanimous bench, “would be controlling here, were it not for the fact that the danger of espionage and sabotage, in time of war or threatened invasion, calls upon the military authorities to scrutinize every relevant fact bearing on the loyalty of populations in the danger areas.” United States, the Supreme Court applied the Carolene precedent to assert a presumed unconstitutionality in laws evoking race-based classifications. This famed footnote suggested the possibility of multiple levels of judicial scrutiny for the first time, the court acknowledged that there may exist specific categories of people whose protection interests outweigh the concerns of the government. Here, Stone implied a place in American jurisprudence for a more rigorous evaluation of constitutionality for controversies invoking the application of the 14th Amendment. ![]() “There may be a narrower scope for operation of the presumption of constitutionality when legislation appears on its face to be within a specific prohibition of the Constitution, such as those in the first 10 amendments, which are deemed to be equally specific when held to be embraced within the 14th Amendment.”
