...why in the hell will the Pens not admit that Jack Johnson is a problem? I mean, I have no problem with aging players who can hold up their end of the deal. (Look how much we all fucking LOVED Cully)
But JJ was never what they needed. He clearly didn’t take any advice from Gonch (who brought out a lot of game in Schultz and some of their other acquisitions for the d-corp). He had a lot of turnovers.
I know he’s Sid’s friend. But OH MY GOD, this is a failed experiment and they need to move on. And frankly, the Pens fucked up by dumping Olli - who had a decent season in Chicago.
(Brought to you by Todd Rieden, latest defensive coach for the Pens, saying that Jack Johnson was a fine defenseman, perfect for a third line pairing)

Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton 'feud' has a familiar script for royal watchers - ABC News
Updated February 04, 2019 09:36:07

Things are looking dire for the future of the House of Windsor at the moment. At least, that’s what the tabloids would like you to believe.
Look at the headlines: “Meghan ‘left Kate in tears over her strict demands“, “Meghan and Kate embroiled in ‘POWER PLAY’“, “Queen Elizabeth ‘reached her limit’ with Meghan and Kate“, “Prince William ‘wanted an ESCAPE’ from Duchess at Sandringham“, “Prince William and Prince Harry ‘haven’t spoken’ for 250 days“, “Meghan and Harry ‘not invited’ to Kate’s birthday“, “Why Meghan was doomed to LOSE in battle with Kate“.
If you’re thinking the idea of a rift between the Duchesses of Sussex and Cambridge all seems a bit hackneyed, that’s because it probably is.

Three months into the alleged feud, the tabloids — perhaps scenting the public’s increasing weariness — have opted for a new approach, taking a break from constantly comparing Meghan and Kate to shame their readers for daring to do so on social media.
But rumours of a Royal rift are the bread and butter of the tabloid press. Meghan and Kate aren’t the first royal sisters-in-law to be dogged by feud rumours — this has happened before in the ’80s, with Princess Diana and Sarah, Duchess of York (or Fergie, as she’s known to the tabloids).
The return of Royal rifts to the tabloids
Unlike this generation of the wives of Windsor, who met at most two years ago, Diana and Fergie knew each other long before joining the Royal family and their relationships were put under the microscope.
The pair were, in fact, fourth cousins whose mothers attended school together, but they didn’t become close until after the then Sarah Ferguson started dating Prince Andrew, Charles’s younger brother, before their marriage in 1986.

Diana played an integral role in bringing Fergie into the family from her privileged position as Charles’s wife.
At this point, it seemed like the only way for their friendship was up.
Ahead of Fergie’s wedding, Diana helped her friend navigate her first public appearance with the Royal family, even lending her a dress and accompanying her to the event.
Writing in her 1997 biography My Story, Fergie recalled her nerves over the assembled photographers: “I looked over at my friend in befuddlement.
“‘Just keep smiling’, Diana whispered. And I did, as I would for long years to come. I always felt safe in mimicking Diana.”
The pair — then in their 20s — went on to act their age at Sarah’s bachelorette party. Along with a handful of friends, Fergie and Diana dressed up as policewomen and caused a scene outside Buckingham Palace, where they were questioned by the authorities.
Returning home the same night, they locked Prince Andrew out as he returned from his bachelor party.
One year later in 1987, they were publicly criticised for poking their friend Lulu Blacker in the backside with their umbrellas at Royal Ascot.
And in 1991, they were seen riding quad bikes around the golf course at the Queen’s estate in Balmoral while wearing their evening dresses, according to numerous reports.
But the friendship soon suffered as constant comparisons in the media got the better of them — something the duchesses themselves both acknowledged.
In a 1992 interview with Royal biographer Andrew Morton, Diana reportedly said: “Fergie wooed everybody in [the Royal family] and did it so well. She left me looking like dirt.”

And Fergie has spoken of her famously tumultuous relationship with Diana numerous times, most recently addressing the rift with Harper’s Bazaar last year: “Because we were like siblings… we rowed.
“And the saddest thing, at the end, we hadn’t spoken for a year [before Diana died], though I never knew the reason.”
Comparisons take their toll
Their relationship endured years of comparisons in the tabloid media that saw Diana typecast as a bore and Fergie as the life of the party.
A 1987 Vanity Fair article claimed Fergie’s “fizz” was leaving Diana “flat”.

According to journalist Georgina Howell, in the year following Fergie’s marriage to Prince Andrew, the “rambunctious redheaded Duchess of York [charmed] the Queen, captivated Prince Philip, and romped away with the hearts of the British public”.
Fergie’s rumoured popularity, the piece said, “highlighted the mounting pressure on the Princess of Wales” and amounted to the “beginnings of a Royal catfight”.
While Fergie was firstly depicted as a “jolly nice girl [who] would be no competition for the Princess of Wales”, the article claimed she went on to overshadow Diana.

After an excruciating recap of all the ways Fergie was allegedly a better Royal compared to Diana — touching on everything from skiing ability to dinner party conversation — the piece concluded: “Unfairly, [Fergie] is far better suited to a Royal role than [Diana].
“Though outwardly rowdy and unguarded, Sarah is, in Royal parlance, ‘sound’.
“Though outwardly generally well behaved and coolly self-contained, Diana is ‘uncontrolled’ … underneath Diana’s perfect grooming, dangerous pressure seems to be building up.”
Concocting the perfect storm
If you’re thinking all of this sounds very done and familiar, that’s because the media has dusted off the same dichotomy for Meghan and Kate, creating the perfect background for an alleged feud to play out.
The Sun frequently exploits it. An “expert” cited by the paper recently described Meghan as “sexual” and Kate as an “introvert”.
But the UK tabloid isn’t alone. Thousands of articles by various publications across the globe employ such charged descriptors for the duchesses, to boost rumours of a feud between them.

Meghan and Kate have none of the same reasons to “feud” as Diana and Fergie did, according to Australian Women’s Weekly editor-at-large and Royal correspondent Juliet Rieden.
“My experience with the Duchess of Sussex and the Duchess of Cambridge is that they get along fine, and they’re both eminent women in their own right who are doing a great job and are engrossed in their own world,” she says.
“[They are] not friends yet, they’re certainly not moving in the same world together.”
Rieden says the Royals are “incredibly caged”.
���Yes, they have a lot of celebrity, but they are in a position of potential influence without the ability to actually do anything.
“They can raise awareness for things, but they can’t change laws or make any political statements.
“Because they don’t have power, because they’re not effecting change, we can’t write enough about their work.

“Consequently, [the media] get caught up making up stories about eye rolls. [The tabloid press] certainly would try to tell you they get better sales when people are warring, or seem to be warring, than in happy mode.
“So, ‘Meghan and Kate get along’ is not a story that sells magazines as well as, ‘Meghan and Kate are at each other’s throats’.”
In addition to dealing with the media pitting women against each other, Meghan and Kate face the added pressure of a 24-hour news cycle.
Everything the duchesses do is magnified and repeated within minutes in thousands of publications across the globe, in ways that would have been inconceivable to Diana and Fergie decades ago.
We know better, so why do we pay attention?
According to University of Michigan evolutionary psychologist Daniel Kruger, the answer goes right back to our origins.
From an evolutionary perspective, human beings have only ever lived in small communities of around 200 people, he explains, and historically this is the number of people we can keep track of.
However, our modern population explosion has given rise to much larger societies and living communities than we evolved to cope with.

“We hear about these people that we might never encounter in our lives, but we still see them as part of our social world because our psychology is not designed to think about millions of people,” he says.
“So, it’s very easy [for the media] to convince us that [Royals] are relevant to our social world because most of the time, the people that you had information about were important in the past.
We are particularly susceptible to high-status people such as the Royals, according to Dr Kruger, and we pay attention to them because in the past, they wielded power that could have had tangible consequences for us.
When we read a headline telling us Meghan and Kate are having it out, against our better judgment a primal part of our brains tells us this information is important to us.
Dr Kruger explains: “When high-status people are in conflict, this could have presented a danger when we were thinking about our own social community in the past.”
And so, we click.
Will it ever end?
Decades on from Diana’s death, tabloids continue to publish tell-all articles on the “People’s Princess” and Fergie, claiming to share intimate details of the pair’s relationship from 40 years ago.
The only way to avoid frivolous coverage of Royal “news” is by abstaining from the consumption of it.
But, given the way we react to Royal news is unlikely to change because of our pesky psychological makeup, we’re at something of an impasse.
And so, the vicious cycle continues.

Text description provided by the architects. The new Schendlingen school in Bregenz (Austria) is a very ambitious project on the part of the clients and educators. On the one hand, an innovative school is intended to provide a clear impetus and enhance the socially problematic catchment area (social focus). On the other hand, the building was designed as a “Gemeinsame Schule” (common school) with a broad age spectrum (for pupils aged 6 to 14 years) as well as a very open and flexible spatial structure.

Together with the existing sports hall, the new school building forms a new ensemble in Bregenz’s suburb of Vorkloster-Rieden. The area has a great need for accentuation or programming due to its monotonous settlement structure (residential area) and homogeneous use. The new school forms a fresh focal point as a public “Quartierszentrum” (neighbourhood centre). With its diverse and carefully designed interior and exterior spaces, the building offers multiple cores for the heterogeneous user community.

The new school has to meet a wide range of requirements and needs. Due to its changed sociological context, the classical school building (learning time) increasingly needs to take over the tasks of the classical residential building (leisure time). The imparting of PISA key competences and modern forms of teaching and learning also require rooms that have parallels with modern offices. The new Schendlingen School shows an architectural and spatial approach in dealing with this hybrid use as a school-apartment-office building.

The double-shell exposed concrete construction is organized in a flexible and polyvalent room structure, and thus remains open to future development. The building shows a prototypical solution for the dual organization of the “Gemeinsame Schule” (joint school) in the age range of elementary to middle school. The compact organization (“school machine”) allows a dense placement of the departments creating diverse neighbourhoods. The various courtyards bring daylight into the building interior and promote the necessary exchange between departments through the many visual axes. The possibilities for vertical and cross-age teaching open up new individual development and learning potentials for the pupils.

First Floor Plan

The auditorium hall forms the central core and distributor in the building. All departments are directly connected to the auditorium or its large air spaces. Good networking and short distances support the pedagogues in their leadership. Particular care has been given to the organization of the eight autonomous clusters (subunits / small schools), as these form the basis for the implementation of the innovative pedagogical concept. These are characterized in particular by good quality daylight, strong spatial relationships, a good spatial definition and a homely atmosphere. A large part of the areas is reached from room to room (sequences of rooms). The few access zones are generously dimensioned (short and wide) and are also equipped with plenty of daylight, visual and external relations. Due to the intelligent fire protection planning, these can also be used in manifold ways. The proportion of multifunctional space (“white space”) is correspondingly very high.
© Adolf Bereuter
The floor plan structure shows a diagrammatic and flowing topology. At most locations, this allows visual relationships throughout the entire building. Nevertheless, a “wall-independent” zoning (“atmospheres”) generates a necessary recognizable definition or spatial hold. These atmospheres can be experienced through differentiated lighting situations, differentiated materialization, different texturing, semi-transparent screens (customizable walls) and a hood-like framing from above. The special hanging acoustic baffles in the cluster zones were developed by the architects. The sustainable materialization is done entirely with an untreated and raw material (exposed concrete, roughly sawn ash, silver fir, felt, glass, etc.). The resulting high-quality air and room climate supports the learning performance of the students.
