Pros: "Nothing. I flu form FLL to Yul and back. I have 3 hours delay each time. At the beginning they announce 1 hour and after that nothing. No explanation why."
Cons: "Continued. In my way back my seat was on the back of the plain. As soon I take my seat an urine smell hit my nose. All passengers around me complain about same issue. Soon we find out both back restroom have no water. We have to endure that smell all trip. NO MORE Air Canada. Is the 3rd bad experi"
Pros: "Quick boarding and takeoff"
Cons: "The sound connections for the in flight entertainment was faulty. Bring your own device would be better. Seats were uncomfortable, they need replacing."
Pros: "Their sympathy for our atrocious wait was, free pop and water, and some pretzels. $30 meal vouchers at the limited options gate area, which could only be used towards a meal (really? no where else?). Here's a were sorry email and a discount on your next flight with us. I have yet to see how much the significant cost for that discount but my expectations of Air Canada are very low."
Cons: "That delay was horrendous, I spent 10 hours at an airport. I woke up so god damn early to get there because of news spreading the worries of people waiting at customs immigration to the U.S. it only took us 40min to get through and the flight delay notice was given an hour and a half before departure. We couldn't even sleep on any benches because they were all designed for individuals to sit. It wasn't until our gate location moved to the end of that area was there any carpeted floor space to sleep on. On the flight, economy seating was very tight with limited leg room, and best of all our seats had no window, literally every other row in our section had a window. Air Canada handled this stressful event very poorly, once they figured out bringing a new air craft hours later, and everyone moved to the new gate area, all the attendants had left from their gate post until 40min before the flight which was hours later."
Pros: "Roomy plane."
Cons: "Restroom no working for disabled. Boarding was disorganized and chaotic."
Pros: "Very good crue"
Cons: "Very concientiousvAiur Canada employees"
Pros: "Staff was very helpful and kind"
Pros: "The flight attendants were very pleasant and helpful. My entertainment app was not letting me play a movies so they gave me a tablet for free. I thought that was very nice customer service."
Cons: "Nor enough moxie choices and mostly old ones. The exact same ones were playing on my return flight. The food options were not great. Not enough of a selection. Also my daughter and I were assigned seats apart and I felt not enough was done to help us sit together. We had to handle it ourselves once on the plane."
Pros: "Smooth ride. Friendly and professional crew."
Cons: "Very uncomfortable seats. Wasn't able to recline seat because the passager behind complained that the seat was in her face."
Pros: "Direct to Toronto"
Cons: "Too many to list"
Cons: "Bumped off a direct flight from Toronto to Fort lauderdale with 6 other people. We all booked back in february. They are overbooking 5 to 10 percent now and kicking off the people who paid the least. There is no advantage to booking early only to be bumped. At the gate the AC employee said we would be credited 3 to 4 hundred dollars but we had to run to the customer service desk and then hop on an AC flight to Houston connecting with United Airlines to Fort Lauderdale. At the customer service desk a herd of people waited anxiously to be re booked and compensated. When they started handing out notice that they would send us 200 in the mail there was an uproar that fell on deaf ears. We then ran to get on the houston flight only to find out that flight was overbooked as well. We had to wait to see if they had any no shows. Fortunately I was able to stay on the plane. Upon arriving in Houston we were quickly ran to the United airline gate only to find out that Air Canada had dropped the ball again. We were not booked on the flight. Five of us had no seats booked , while I was booked to depart on a morning flight the next day with no accomodations arranged? Fortunately for us United Airlines picked up the ball and some how got us on the plane to Fort Lauderdale. Upon arriving around 1140pm! should have arrived at 5:20pm direct! we quickly ran to the AC terminal to get our luggage that was originally checked on the first flight. We were told that it would be there. AC employees with no concern at all told us it's not here and it would have been on the united flight that we just arrived on. After I explained that we werent even scheduled to be on the United flight by air canada, so there's no way it made it onto the plane. They looked at us like we were idiots, closed thier office doors and walked away. We ran back to the other terminal( shuttle buses stop at 11pm in Fort Lauderdale?) only to find no luggage again. Fortunately United picks up the ball again and traces our luggage back to Toronto, AC pulled it and left it sitting there. Because of Air Canada's inept employees I missed my rental car reservation and had to buy new clothes for the wedding the next day. They said they'd have the luggage to me by 11 am , it arrived at 11:30 pm the next day. Save yourself the hassel, fly any other airline other then the iconic continually bailed out by the federal goverment airline. If you know, no matter how bad your company and service is ,you will always be bailed out would you work hard? Probably not, hence the atrocious attitude and poor performance of this dead horse airline."
Pros: "Comfort of seats Crew's teamwork"
Cons: "It would be great if you could accept debit cards on board for purchases."
Pros: "Efficient and helpful."
Pros: "The boarding process"
Cons: "Seats uncomfortable, no entertainment except dated material, crowded, overhead luggage does not fit a 20in bag except sideways, very inefficient use of space. Given the choice a rouge flight would be my last choice."

Cons: "Not thanking you guys enough. So!!! Thank you again"

Pros: "On time flight."
Cons: "No internet, entertainment app was completely dysfunctional, No free snacks, crew was slow to serve, flight home was very bumpy. I was glad to get off the plane."
Pros: "There are thousands of national brands that are kosher. It's not difficult to find products that all passengers can enjoy."
Pros: "Where rude also unable to hear safety announcemts"
Cons: "Delays on delays"
Cons: "TO - Pearson AIRPORT horrid CUSTOMS layout- all automation with little assistance and little signage what to do... when 300+ people need it simultaneously it is a mess. NO warnings if/when to collect luggage or not- so waste time at baggage carosel when it is not coming out between flights. Too few Attendants sending connections on wild walk through long concourses to undefined line ups. Customs surely...not humored at all. Why the second time 45 mins cattle line up for security pass through before customs?? IN TRANSIT STILL??!! Not having proper crew ready to take over flight when delays make first crew sign off...waited on plane with no service for 1.5 hrs no water or food - should have disembarked to terminal?? Babies kids had 5 hrs onboard with no distractions or food. YIKES!! In the AIRPORT lack of AIR Canada personnel attending gateways! EMPTY until 20 mins before flights. Customer Service Desks somewhat helpful...could do more form their stations."
Pros: "Nothing except the plane was able to fly!"
Cons: "Old plane: Old seats No entertainment screens need to rent a mobile device -> this is sooo out of touch with reality of standard flights that it is even embarrassing to mention or to write it! BTW: My fellow flight companions did make fun of this during the entire flight! Not good."
Pros: "That I was able to play it on my phone"
Cons: "Flight attendants passed by me without asking if I would like to buy lunch and when she finally she came by they didn't have anything else"
Pros: "Nothing."
Cons: "Everything. Crowded. Cramped. The curtain between First Class and Economy was archaic and insulting. On my departure flight, I had the unfortunate row that divided the elite from the peasants. IIt enabled me to see how the staff fawned over the Elite while we waited for minimal attention."
Cons: "Slow check-in, old plane"
Cons: "One man wanted me to check an empty carry on bag I travel for 10 years with this high quality foldable carry on bag, it is a tight in their test cradle because of the wheels but it does fit. Even a passanger offer me is support telling the agent he was not reasonable after getting the bag in and out 4 times he still wanted me to check the bag in ? After 10 min arguments he said ok put it on the floor ! I could of put 2 of my foldable bag on the top storage if I had 2.... it was a connecting from same airline a much smaller plane which accepeted the bag . Very unpleasant ! Some people like to feel in power."
Cons: "I was assigned a seat right at the back when I booked I selected a mid seat and did not get it."
Pros: "Good flight once we got on board."
Cons: "Plane was about an hour late taking off, seems the maintenance guy lives 45 minutes from the airport and we all had to wait on him to get there to look at a paint chip on the nose, which took about a minute. They might want to have someone on hand."
Cons: "The space between the row seat has become too narrow."
Pros: "The staff was very professional and quite helpful. The flight was good. I would recommend it to everyone."
Pros: "Layla!!!! Mimosa Heineken"
Pros: "Direct flight"
Cons: "They were weighting carry on luggage. My luggage was was 22pound and they asked me remove one pound. Plain redicules. They don't provide any snack. West jet is much better option. They have screen TVs. Very boring . Extremely tight leg space. Air Canada is coping Spirit Airlines since they are monopoly. Not many airlines have direct flights to Montreal. They are taking full advantage of it."
Cons: "The crew waited so long to start selling food. Then, by the time the cart got to where I was sitting (only halfway back) they were already sold out of the two things I wanted to buy. The tea they served was the dregs from the bottom of the kettle, nasty and bitter. There was no "entertainment," except a crew member renting out a couple of ipads that connected to the wifi. The luggage compartments are oddly shaped so that you can only put your luggage in the long way. It a misuse of space. A lot of people had a hard time finding any place to put their bags. During takeoff, one of the luggage compartments opened up twice."
Cons: "Flight left late"
Pros: "Staff were friendly. My son got to say hello to the pilot as we boarded. It was a smooth flight."
Cons: "It would be nice if there were some vegetarian options for food on the plane. Even a cheese and tomato sandwich would. D good."
Pros: "1/2 hour late in departing. 2 1/2 hours. Sitting on Tarmac on flight to Toronto. Too crowded on plane"
Pros: "Crew is polite but A c should be ashamed to herd people in such tight spaces that are only for cattle. People were scwarming Fidgety Quite terrible Please no longer recommend the ' rouge ' flights to people Regular flights are ok but the rouge They should be ashamed of themselves and you to for selling them"
Pros: "The service ,the courtesy, and respect. And the flight was smooth. Great crew! Thank you Barbara Caridad Gonzalez"
Cons: "I could not put my foot up on anything. I had tendon problem. No movie ahhh was boredd. Food was not that great but fine I did have window part but rather not get away from the wing. I don lIke the wING section. . Thank you"
Cons: "My first flight had free snacks and movies to watch yet it was only an hour in the air. This flight was much longer with no movies and having to pay for snacks. Seems a tad backwards."
Cons: "Rouge was the problem here. Unlike regular Air Canada flights, the seats are extra cramped and there are no seat-back TVs or power outlets. (Also, the crew didn't seem to include any French speakers - weird for Air Canada.) I preferenced AC for this flight. Next time I would avoid them if it's Rouge."
Pros: "Lack of services in Air Canada is disappointing. I asked for an iPad, which, i was asking to rent to watch a movie and no one got back to me."
Pros: "This was the first time traveling to Canada. Everything went so smooth. I will definitely be using Air Canada again!"
Cons: "No entertainment"
Pros: "Left on time, arrived on time, staff were organized and efficient, luggage came out fast"
Pros: "Very easy checkin, nice aircraft, very clean, friendly staff."
Pros: "Prompt departure and arrivals very good crew"
Cons: "The chair comfort"
Pros: "the free wifi for your tablet. Clerk for the broken luggage was excellent."
Cons: "Broke one of my suitcase."
Pros: "Its kind of ridiculous that u would take all that away and charge for baggage on top!!! We should be allowed at least one bag!!!! At least bundle all the expenses into our fare so we feel like u care about our flight!!! At least you're offereing us something more for our hard earned dollar!!!!! Come on Air Canada, figure it out!!! No meals anymore on any glights either? Wtf????"
Pros: "Loaded quickly,"
Pros: "Staff was pleasent"
Cons: "Due to a back up at the airport I almost missed my flight and none of the staff seemed like they cared at all. And it wasn't just me, it was basically everyone who had to go through customs. Then we sat on the plane for two hours while they tried to fix the back door, and then refuel. There wasn't enough food on the plane for anyone, which I didn't think was proper after holding us up an extra 2 hours. Also no entertainment"
Pros: "Crew"
Cons: "Late Cramped crowded Too hot"
Cons: "Flight was extremely hot the entire way"
Pros: "Luggage was nowhere to be found for 12 hours. Had to go to the airport to pick up the next day. Luggage tracking web site is useless - it does not get updates at all. Very disappointed."
Pros: "Crew was awesome."
Cons: "NO entertainment whatsoever unless you purchased it, $5 is expensive"
Pros: "Leg room in economy plus. We were upgraded because of a seat assignment issue."
Cons: "No entertainment what-so-ever! And the wifi didn't work. Extremely warn/hot in the cabin from takeoff to landing and the blower didn't work."
Pros: "Seat reclined!! New clean plane, free movies and shows on my iPad and not the cheesy movies no one has heard of, really modern new A list movies!"
Cons: "Nothing at all"
Pros: "The fact that I somehow actually made it to Ft Lauderdale"
Cons: "The plane caught on fire. This was after the copilot realized he didn't have the right license after we had all boarded and we had to sit and wait for a new copilot. This was after everything had already been delayed for maintenance. Get your act together, United!"
Pros: "Free movies and wifi"
Cons: "Plane was not cleaned properly. And it was restroom smell all over the mane during the boarding"
Pros: "The nonstop overnight flight was very good. We will for sure choose that again. Much better then daytime with stops"
Cons: "We didn't use food or entertainment, but rating option didn't give that, so it wasn't bad just not used"
Cons: "Seats, space horrid like every other airline out there! American Corporate Greed at work, stuff them like sardines"
Pros: "Crew was great, and apologetic for the takeoff delay in a red eye flight."
Cons: "the aisle seats on the plane had a narrower underseat space that my little boxy carryon wouldn't fit into--and it usually fits under any underseat storage...Luckily the passenger in the middle was willing to swap places."
Pros: "Flight was on time and the staff and crew were extremely courteous."
Pros: "Was on time and very smooth flight"
Cons: "Too many change of gate. I felt like i had to look out to make sure the gate didnt change"
Pros: "Flight was on time"
Cons: "Better food would have made my night"
Pros: "Everything went well; great service on both flights"
Cons: "N/A"
Pros: "For my first time flying every thing was great. Crew was friendly. Flight was early. Ready to book another flight!!"
Pros: "Crew was smiling very polite even though it was a crowded flight to FLL and back to EWR."
Cons: "There were not one but two dogs on the flight which I had an allergic reaction to. Thank goodness I travel with extra allergy medication in my purse. The owner of the dog in front of me keep insisting the dog was hypoallergenic. What matters is my reaction or the person who is allergic reaction to the dog's dander even if they claim it's a hypoallergenic dog. Once I had a severe reaction on a United flight and the cat was no where near me, but the air is circulating so I has to take benadryl. There should be some consideration for people who have health concerns without making the customer feel like we are a problem."
Pros: "The service, no stress, fast and easy process. .."
Cons: "Nothing at all,everything went well. .thanks"
Pros: "Everything was good"
Pros: "Excellent choices, comparisons, easy to use, updates"
Cons: "Luggage trouble and space trouble for passengers. There was a barking dog on the seat next to me"
Pros: "Great captain. Bad weather conditions but made me feel safe. Had to pay for tv but that was ok. We were on the ground for almost 2 hours so I needed entertainment."
Pros: "Everything"
Pros: "The free inflight entertainment was very good."
Cons: "I was very upset that the gate agent stated that the overhead bins were full and that I would need to check my carry on bag, which i did. However upon boarding the plane, there were multiple overhead bins that were actually empty. I do not appreciate being lied to by the gate agent and being forced to check my bag when there was plenty of overhead bin space available. Moreover, I waited for nearly 30 minutes for my then checked bag to come through the baggage carousel after deplaning. This is far too long to have to wait for a bag after a 5.5 hour flight, especially when it was a carry on bag I was forced to check despite there being ample room in the overhead bins. Very disappointing and unnecessary aggrevation. Additionally, there was some slight turbulence during the flight for which the captain turned on the seat belt sign and everyone was requested to return to their seats. A few minutes later there were still some people standing in the aisles waiting to use the restroom, at which point a female flight attendant came on the intercom and stated, "I will try to make this as simple as possible for you to understand..." She then carried on explaining in a very rude and sarcastic tone the safety reasoning behind asking the standing passengers to return to their seats. While her frustration with people not returning to their seats was understandable, her tone of voice and sarcastic demeanor was not professional, and quite unappreciated. My overall experience with United could have been much more pleasant but for these instances. I feel these couple of bad experiences could have been easily prevented which would have led to a much more enjoyable experience with United. Unfortunately, because of these things, I will think twice about flying with United in the future."
Pros: "Great service and flight."
Cons: "Had to pay extra for TV."
Pros: "The last row was really comfortable."
Cons: "The lines set up to let people onto plane were disorganized."
Pros: "United the worst.never again"
Cons: "Flight didn't actually take off. Terrible updates regarding flight status."
Cons: "pay for TV shows."
Cons: "Delayed departure"
Pros: "On time arrival and landed early. Wi fi and 110v available on plane. Complimentary beverage"
Cons: "Very bumpy ride but the crew took it all in stride couldn't sleep"
Pros: "Not the fault of the crew They were transparent"
Cons: "Taxied then returned for mechanical issue Had to deplane and wait 3 hrs Text that gate changed Text that gate didn't change 2 hrs into 3 hr flight told that we had been re routed for a 4 hr flight due to weather 1 hr later told we have to land somewhere else to refuel Landed to refuel then told we have to wait to take off because the airport lost power in most terminals due to previous storm"
Pros: "I liked that it was a direct flight from DEN to FLL at a decent time of day."
Cons: "I don't like being in Boarding Group 4 all the time. I don't fly United as often as I used to, but still it seems I should be able to get group 2 or 3 occasionally. I often have to travel with my suitcase carry on and it's difficult to insure I will get on at a decent time to get a space. My husband who rarely flies, but has a United credit card, gets Boarding Group 2 every time. This is frustrating to those who travel United still but can't seem to get a break on the boarding. It discourages us from flying United because of this approach. Charging for bags and boarding in the manner they do does not promote efficiency in the boarding process and only frustrates customers and discourages people from flying United. Changing their priorities would help both efficiency and make them a friendlier airline."
Pros: "The flight was great but the flight was delayed almost an hour. There was. great cabin crew and we had a quick fligh despite the delay. I would fly with United again."
Pros: "Stuck on the tarmac 1 hr before and after flight"
Pros: "Flight was smooth, good landing even though the flight was delayed."
Cons: "The Denver based flight crew on this flight was a rude. They threatened to kick off someone with a dog on the flight and had a bad attitude overall. The flight attendants were very "short" with the passengers. It seems that the customer service side of the full fare airlines is decreasing. Also, my television on the seat back did not work, so I had to sit there in silence for the 4 hour flight."
Cons: "My original flight were CMH to ORD, ORD to FLL. First of all, it took 25.5 hours to get CMH to FL. Could not even landed at FLL, they send me at Tampa and I have to drive to Miami and took 5 hours after frying and waiting for 20.5hours. Finally, got in to Tampa, of course UNITED lost my laggege and they had no idea where it was. UNITED CREWS are not willing to help you. I am so tired to deal with UNITED and I do not recommend to my firends or family or anyone."
Pros: "The customer service"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Worst customer service I've ever experienced with an airline. United should be ashamed. Flight canceled based on pilot being late from hotel, then late flight inbound, then weather. Next available flight wasn't for 48 hours later. No accommodations, compensation, or bags. Never fly United or in or out of Newark Liberty International."
Pros: "My airport and flight experience from Newark on Christmas Eve was excellent , no delays plenty to keep you entertained while you wait for flight , great stores and eateries . Would definitely choose the airline and airport again ."
Cons: "Next time I Would like To pick up my Seat, as soon as I buy the flight ticket."
Pros: "Flight on time very kind and curtious very nice"
Pros: "I had a very pleasnt experience except the seat rows were SO small and my seat didn't recline. I am only 5ft 4in and I felt uncomfortable. The woman next to me was cleary very uncomfortable. This was my first time flying United in a while and I will definitely avoid UA in the future for long flights."
Pros: "Really sucks to sit and wait and wait and wait without updates."
Pros: "Best flight attendants hands down"
Pros: "I'm a traveler, and I just don't recommend this airline. Here in America people have so many options."
Pros: "Crew were nice"
Cons: "Seating was very uncomfortable even though I had the window seat on the way to my destination and back home. There is no entertainment on the plane. I think for people traveling long hours there should be some kind of inflight entertainment. Very unhappy traveling with United. I would rather pay more money and fly American Airlines. Not pleased with this airline"
Cons: "Flight was delayed and hour and gate attendants and flight attendants were rude."
Cons: "You had to pay for television."
Pros: "I loved the service air hostesses were very polite and friendly the seats were actually comdoerable was considering that. Overall it was a very good flight"
Pros: "The Efficiency I experienced"
Cons: "Nothing bad happened"

UK fintech firms urged to take on displaced Ukrainian talent
Support group 'Fintech Without Frontiers' is calling for UK fintech companies to aid Ukrainian refugees with career opportunities.
The initiative was created by London-based Ozone API as an attempt to lay down a safe net for displaced fintech talent in the UK. In this case – people running away from the war in Ukraine, who Fintech Without Frontiers says have "skills useful to fast-growing businesses" due to Ukraine being a "centre of excellence and expertise in tech innovation".
Huw Davies, Co-Founder and Chief Commercial Officer at Ozone API, said: "It's heart-breaking to see the situation unfolding in Ukraine. We wanted to do something, but we aren't able to write big cheques like major corporations can.
"What we can do though is hire talent. There are many more businesses like us in the fintech sector, so we felt we could do something positive by creating a collective and working together to expose all of the growth opportunities in the industry to the displaced talent when they start to rebuild their lives."
As an industry collective, Fintech Without Frontiers consists of multiple other companies in the sector besides Ozone API. These are Moneyhub, RegAlytics, Allica Bank, Monese, Acin, Muse Finance, Ordo, Bloom Money, The Payments Association, Open Banking Excellence (OBE) and Innovate Finance.
Official statements on the situation were issued by some of the aforementioned companies, such as the CEO of Moneyhub, Samantha Seaton, who said: "We have all watched in horror and disbelief at the events unfolding in Ukraine. It's heart-breaking, and we've been looking for ways in which we can help those displaced in practical and immediate ways. The answer lies in collaboration.
"It's touching to see the sector come together to create Fintech Without Frontiers so that those feeling conflict have a real opportunity to find employment in an exceptionally high-growth industry. Displaced individuals need to be able to rebuild their lives and careers for a more stable future, and there is a huge opportunity for the fintech sector to help them do just that and have a positive impact."
OBE Founder Helen Child added: "What words are left to describe the war in Ukraine? Horrific devastation doesn't even come close. Some of the stories on the news have reduced me to tears and maybe you too. Our hearts go out to everyone affected by the war. Overwhelmingly there is a desire to help. So how can we channel this sentiment to make a real difference?
"At OBE we believe in the true power of community and see the collective good collaboration brings. We are proud to be working with Fintech Without Frontiers. A remarkable idea brought to life by some truly dedicated people behind the scenes across fintech, all pulling together with a common purpose.
"It is a wonderful demonstration of how when you get great people together amazing things happen. It's a privilege to be able to play a part in sharing more about Fintech Without Frontiers with our community. Fintech thrives on talent, creating so many opportunities that can be resourced by Ukrainian refugees and providing new perspectives for employers, hope and opportunity for the brave hearted Ukrainians, who have already taught us so much."
UK businesses that decide to get involved in the Fintech Without Frontiers cause can do so by signing the initiative's manifesto which would then create remote and visa-supported work opportunities.
Placed in the manifesto are pledges to provide fair compensations, perform an adequate recruitment process, and commit to working in a sensitive manner when candidates are to be interviewed in a second language or have endured any sort of trauma.
As a whole, the UK fintech sector is well-placed to assimilate incoming talent. Currently experiencing huge growth, investments reached $37.3bn in 2021 – a stark difference from the $5.2bn in 2020.

The 51 global events that occurred from January 1980 to March 1984, which were chosen by the convenors of the Symposium on Seismological Theory and Practice, have been analyzed using a moment tensor inversion algorithm (Sipkin). Many of the events were routinely analyzed as part of the National Earthquake Information Center's (NEIC) efforts to publish moment tensor and first-motion fault-plane solutions for all moderate- to large-sized (mb>5.7) earthquakes. In routine use only long-period P-waves are used and the source-time function is constrained to be a step-function at the source (??-function in the far-field). Four of the events were of special interest, and long-period P, SH-wave solutions were obtained. For three of these events, an unconstrained inversion was performed. The resulting time-dependent solutions indicated that, for many cases, departures of the solutions from pure double-couples are caused by source complexity that has not been adequately modeled. These solutions also indicate that source complexity of moderate-sized events can be determined from long-period data. Finally, for one of the events of special interest, an inversion of the broadband P-waveforms was also performed, demonstrating the potential for using broadband waveform data in inversion procedures. ?? 1987.


Just had a chance to read the article that Annemarie [Donkin] wrote, and wanted to make some corrections [see "Roadside Committee Creates Mapping Plan," Topanga Messenger Vol 36 No 18, [Sept. 6, 2012]) .
First, I think that it is important to note that we did not find evidence of any seepage of herbicide into the creek below town. That is the only portion of the watershed that we monitor regularly. I have no way of knowing if there was any seepage upstream of town.
Second, the mapping effort had been identified as a priority in the first meeting, so my input was simply to build on that with more details of what pragmatically was needed in order to accomplish development of a map that met the needs of the committee. It is important to be clear that the map is limited to the area of concern for Caltrans roadside clearance—approximately 10 feet from the edge of the pavement.
Unfortunately, I am getting feedback that folks think that I am a) not concerned about the possible impacts of herbicide to the creek and b) that somehow I am taking control of the mapping.
Both are not true. Many thanks for your help in correcting these misconceptions.
I know Annemarie tried her best!
Also, thanks so much for spreading the word for the crayfish removal. We had a great turnout and lots of fun.


Showcasing a skyline dominated by futuristic skyscrapers, Dallas is the second largest city in Texas and the ninth largest city in the United States. Originally populated by cattle and cowboys, this modern metropolis was founded as a trading post in 1846 and became a prominent center for business and industry after the discovery of oil in 1930. Dallas also gained tragic notoriety as the place of President John F. Kennedy's assassination while traveling by motorcade. It later received more positive acclaim through the extremely popular television show of the same name which ran from 1978 to 1991.
The city of Dallas has become one of the the most prominent centers of business and finance in the southwestern United States. In addition to being a leading center for banking, it is second in the nation in insurance company headquarters and convention business, and third nationally in million-dollar Fortune 500 companies. Dallas also has more shopping space and retail centers per capita than any other city in the USA.
Visitors will find many impressive options for dining, entertainment, and arts and culture, including a 60-acre arts district located in the downtown area. Other attractions include various museums as well as the Dallas Zoo, Six Flags over Texas, and a 66-acre arboretum and botanical garden. The annual State Fair of Texas held in 277-acre Fair Park is also a huge draw, bringing in over 3 million people each fall.

Brela su općina u Hrvatskoj, u Splitsko-dalmatinskoj županiji. Poznato su ime u svjetskim turističkim krugovima, zahvaljujući svojim prirodnim ljepotama i gotovo stogodišnjoj turističkoj tradiciji.

Općinska naselja
U sastavu općine su dva naselja, Brela i Gornja Brela.

Zemljopis
Općina Brela nalazi se na krajnjem zapadu Makarskog primorja. Od Splita je udaljena 45 km, a od Makarske 15 km.

Naselje Brela, ranije poznato kao Donja Brela, smjestilo se podno planine Biokovo, u duljini od 7 km uzduž državne ceste D8 - Jadranske magistrale, od Vrulje u općini Zadvarje na zapadu do općine Baška Voda na jugoistoku. Sastoji se od nekoliko zaselaka s obje strane magistrale, od kojih su najveći Soline i Donje selo.

Naselje Gornja Brela (Brela Gornja) nalazi se u Zabiokovlju, na putu od mora prema Zadvarju i Šestanovcu. Naselje obuhvaća 20 km2 zabiokovskog prostora u sastavu Parka prirode Biokovo, s obiljem krških fenomena, biljnim endemima i bogatom florom i faunom te sakralnim i ruralnim graditeljstvom. Od općinskog su središta Gornja Brela udaljena 7 km, koliko i od ulaza na Autocestu A1 u općini Šestanovac.

Breljanska plaža Punta rata je 2004. svrstana među najljepše plaže svijeta u izboru časopisa Forbes. Dobitnice su brojnih domaćih i inozemnih nagrada. Također, američki portal The Huffington Post (od travnja 2017 kao HuffPost) je 2014. godine proglasio Brela destinacijom iz snova. U 2017. godini Europski parlament plažu Podrače u Brelima posebno je izdvojio po čistoći mora ocijenivši je izvanrednom i preporučili su je na svom Twitter profilu posjetiteljima iz cijelog svijeta.

Povijest
Hrvatska se Brela prvi put spominju pod nazivom "Beroyllia" oko 950. godine i to na grčkom jeziku, u djelu bizantskog cara Konstantina Porfirogeneta "O upravljanju carstvom", kao jedan od četiri utvrđena grada stare neretvanske kneževine Paganije.

Stanovnici Brela, u latiniziranom obliku "Brolanenses", spominju se 1315. u povelji, kojom hrvatski knez Juraj Šubić iz grada Klisa priznaje Breljanima, Rogožđanima, Svinišćanima i Kučićanima iste povlastice kao i ostalim pripadnicima tadašnje omiške komune.

U izvorima iz 15. – 17. stoljeća, pisanim latinskim, talijanskim i turskim jezikom, naziv nam je predan u ovim oblicima: Bercla, Brehle, Breglie, Brehlia, Brechlia, Brechglia te Brehgli. Do 16. stoljeća u izvorima se Brela smatraju jedinstvenim selom. Godine 1571. razlikuju se "Breglie piccolo" i "Breglie grande", i to u odluci mletačkog dužda Alojzija I. Moceniga. Koncem 16. stoljeća strani izvori jasno razlikuju "Brehlia superior et inferior", a koncem 17. stoljeća javljaju se oblici "Brehgli Dolgni" i "Brehgli Gorgni", tj. Gornja Brela iza brda u zagorju i Donja Brela u primorju.

Don Nikola Ursić 1694. razlikuje Brela i Podbrejalje (Podbrehalje). Na temelju skematizma Splitsko-makarske biskupije iz 1862. godine, koji je pisan talijanskim jezikom, razlikuju se Gornja i Donja Brela.

Brela su samostalna općina od 1993. godine. Dotad su bila u sastavu općine Makarska.

Stanovništvo
Prema posljednjem popisu stanovništva iz 2011. godine općina Brela imala je 1.703 stanovnika, raspoređenih u dva naselja:

 Brela - 1.575
 Gornja Brela - 128

Is Your ITAR Controlled Data AWOL?
Home » Conduent Blog » Is Your ITAR Controlled Data AWOL?
Do you know whether your business is covered by the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR)? Even if your organization does not export military products and services, ITAR's coverage extends to entities that handle data involved—sometimes tangentially—in defense-related industries.
ITAR requires any U.S. company or person that exports "defense articles" within the purview of the United States Munitions List (USML) to obtain government authorization before engaging in any export activity. The USML covers broad categories of items including firearms, ammunition, missiles, explosives, aircraft, and personal protective equipment, among many other things. ITAR also covers entities that share technical data involving the "design, development, production, manufacture, assembly, operation, repair, testing, maintenance or modification of defense articles" that fall within the USML categories, even when no physical export takes place. The data can take the form of documents, blueprints, drawings, photographs, plans, or instructions.
Identify controlled data. Take steps to isolate ITAR data before sending it to third parties. Use analytics to scan data repositories for technical data, unlock hidden patterns, and cluster documents into conceptually related buckets for review. Conceptual search tools can identify patterns in documents based on keywords or chunks of text and highlight documents that refer to the USML categories.
Ensure your business partners are ITAR compliant. Ask all third parties to confirm their agreement to take reasonable measures to prevent the unauthorized disclosure of ITAR controlled data, such as preventing users from downloading, printing, or transmitting any information and running criminal background checks on potential employees. Also, make sure vendors do not store your data on servers located outside the United States.
Adopt access controls and permissions. Take precautions to prevent unauthorized parties from accessing and sharing technical data that resides in a structured environment, such as a database. For example, provide separate physical access for any projects involving the processing, collecting, or review of ITAR data. A separate secure database can offer another layer of security against unauthorized or inadvertent access to data during document reviews. The same can be applied to sources of unstructured data, such as Microsoft Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, engineering drawings, maps, email, social media and chat.
Be litigation ready. A big challenge for many companies is that their legacy data lacks classification, and is thus not well controlled day-to-day and more so in the case of litigation or an investigation (not to mention larger information governance considerations). It is critical to have a litigation readiness plan in place that enables professionals within the company to locate the legacy data, classify it and have a go-forward process for classifying data at the time of creation.
Taking steps such as these to identify and protect technical data is particularly important, as the government agency charged with enforcing ITAR, the Directorate of Defense Trade Controls, is likely to take a more favorable view of companies that follow a rigorous compliance program and voluntarily remedy failures to comply. Otherwise, violators are likely to suffer severe penalties, including multimillion-dollar fines.


For each and every automobile there are shifting components that make it functioning. Web site visitors are no different. There are techniques to it or resources that make creating visitors efficient and achievable.
3. Supply suggestions to increase the traffic generation resource and provide crucial success components.
Content will very likely be the groundwork for your company. It doesn't make a difference what business enterprise product you use, content material promotes your company; it offers worth and trustworthiness and it pushes visitors to your site.
For the greater degree, content is a vital part of most traffic generating techniques. Regardless of whether you're discussing blogging and site-building, linking, social media, or marketing with articles, all of which we will deal with in a second, content material is the building blocks of this strategy.
The reason being that's the way the web functions. It's a source of content material and as a web site proprietor and company owner, the easiest way for individuals to locate your site is for you to provide content material.
At any time somebody gets on the internet, they're typically looking for information. They really want information. They wish to learn, they would like to enhance, and they would like to be entertained.It's vital that you realize that content material doesn't need to be just print content. It could also be audio or online video subject material.
It's also essential to realize that content is proportional to the level of visitors you receive on your web site since, amongst other things, search engines like Google base their results around the content material you've got on your web site.
Let's take a glimpse at the most fundamental element of content material as it applies to traffic generation.
The foremost and probably most crucial way content material pushes visitors is it assists your web site to be visible on the various search engines. When Guru's discuss Search Engine Marketing or SEO, they generally focus on written content.
They look at and "index" your website pages – you're written content.
Through providing an abundance of content material on the web site regarding your niche subject areas, you are basically providing the various search engines much more of a good reason to list your site higher within the results. So when individuals seek out the information you have, they will see your web site, simply click through and there you are – you've got qualified targeted traffic.


Hydrodynamic theory helps to explain how large human crowds flow like water.
New York City marathon runners on the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge.
Large human crowds exhibit fluid-like collective behavior that can be predicted based solely on hydrodynamic theory, according to a new study (Bain and Bartolo, 2019) published today in the journal Science. This pioneering research shows, for the first time, how crowds of people flow like water in ways that appear to override so-called "interaction rules" between individuals.
This paper, "Dynamic Response and Hydrodynamics of Polarized Crowds," was co-authored by Nicolas Bain and Denis Bartolo of the Laboratoire de Physique in Lyon, France. Bain is a Ph.D. student in physics at the ENS de Lyon working under the supervision of Bartolo. The groundbreaking research presented in this paper focuses on studying human crowds from an active matter physicist's point of view.
For this large-scale research on human crowd movement through the lens of hydrodynamic theory, Bain and Bartolo set up cameras at a birds-eye view so they could film the flow of thousands of marathon runners being sectioned off into different corrals at the starting line of three of the world's largest marathons in Chicago, Paris, and Atlanta.
Mesmerizing impressions of virtually all patterns observed in bird flocks, fish schools, insect swarms, and even human crowds are effectively rendered in silico by simple algorithms. Going beyond visual impressions and predicting the collective dynamics of groups of living creatures in response to physical, social, or biological imperatives, however, remains a formidable challenge.
Modeling crowd motion is central to situations as diverse as risk prevention in mass events and visual effects rendering in the motion picture industry. We use tens of thousands of road-race participants in starting corrals to elucidate the flowing behavior of polarized crowds by probing its response to boundary motion. Building on these observations, we lay out a hydrodynamic theory of polarized crowds and demonstrate its predictive power. We expect this description of human groups as active continua to provide quantitative guidelines for crowd management.
As you can see in the video below, when Bain and Bartolo analyzed the collective movement of swarms of marathon runners at the starting line of a race, they were able to identify waves of crowd density and velocity that created a ripple effect that would cascade from the back and front of the line, but not from side to side. Unlike some life-threatening "crowds flowing like a tsunami" situations that I will discuss later in this post, the thousands of marathon runners participating in these well-organized running events slowly make progress toward the starting line under the clearly articulated guidance of race-day staffers.
Interestingly, the "hydrodynamic wave" of marathon runners waiting to start a 26.2-mile run appears to ripple through the crowd at a constant speed. Using predictive mathematical models, the researchers were able to accurately predict how these dynamics would play out from one marathon starting line to another.
A noteworthy perspective piece about the new study by Bain and Bartolo, "Flowing Crowds" by Nicholas Ouellette of Stanford University, was also published in the Jan. 4 issue of Science. Oullette is the founder and director of Stanford's Environmental Complexity Lab, which focuses on self-organization in complex systems with relevance to collective behavior and experimental fluid mechanics, such as the turbulent fluid flow and collective motion in animal groups and large human crowds.
"On p. 46 of this issue [of Science], Bain and Bartolo (4) describe a powerful new way to model human crowds. Instead of focusing on individuals, they build a continuum "hydrodynamic" model of the crowd as a whole and then constrain it with observational data collected from marathon runners. This approach circumvents many of the sometimes-questionable assumptions that have previously been made and provides a roadmap for constructing an empirically grounded theory of collective behavior."
Have You Ever Been "Swept Away" in a Sea of Humanity That Felt Like a Tidal Wave?
While I was reading about the latest research on large crowds flowing like water and behaving in predictable patterns based on hydrodynamics, I had flashbacks to specific circumstances in both sports and daily life where I've experienced this phenomenon. In the second part of this post, I'm going to shift gears and share some autobiographical stories and audio-visual examples that corroborate the latest findings by Bain and Bartolo on the hydrodynamics of human crowds.
Before reading further: Can you recollect any firsthand experiences of feeling a massive wave of human beings acting like a wall of water that made you feel powerless about choosing which direction your body was going to move?
When I asked myself this question earlier today, four examples sprang to mind. Two of them were memories that made me feel good; the other two triggered some post-traumatic stress. After reading the latest study by Bain and Bartolo, I realize that the closest I've come to thinking I was going to die was in situations where the water-like movements of a massive crowd — who had no idea that their collective actions were creating life-threatening danger — almost annihilated individuals in a distant part of the group.
As a marathon runner, I've experienced the exact wave-like phenomenon that Bain and Bartolo captured on film for their latest study as a participant being "herded" by race-day volunteers into a starting corral. For me, this experience has always been a joyful, camaraderie-building experience. The most exuberant "E pluribus unum" sense of being a drop of water in a sea of humanity is when I'm among 50,000+ marathon runners at the starting line of the world's largest marathon in New York City.
As you can see in the video above, the first mile of the NYC marathon takes runners from Staten Island to Brooklyn via the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge. Being shoulder-to-shoulder and running stride-for-stride with other marathoners during this portion of the NYC marathon feels like surfing a wave. This is the only time during a marathon when it feels like my feet aren't even touching the ground, and I'm being carried forward by a gigantic wave of strangers working towards a common goal. This is a life-affirming experience.
As a native New Yorker, there are countless times that I've also experienced the "sea of humanity" pushing my body to and fro in ways that were beyond my control while commuting on the subway during rush hour. Anyone who has gotten on or off an MTA train heading in or out of Manhattan during rush hour has probably felt the hydrodynamics of crowds flowing like water.
For most of my life, I lived on 14th Street and took the L train regularly. Although most people hate the rush-hour crowds, for some weird reason I've always loved being packed into a subway car like sardines. In a metropolis where it's so easy to be surrounded by people but feel physically isolated, being crammed onto a subway car always creates a strange kind of forced intimacy that feels bizarrely comforting to me.
That said, as you can see in the video above, the type of water-like dynamics observed by Bain and Bartolo at marathon starting lines are also observable in this exhibit of commuters getting plugged up (like a blocked drain in need of a plunger) on the stairs leading to the platform at Union Square, which is often filled to the rim. The amoeba-like dynamic of the crowd as a single entity coagulates, which stops flow in both directions. Obviously, these hydrodynamics of a crowd not flowing smoothly in underground tunnels creates very real dangers for everyday commuters.
Another autobiographical example of feeling a large human crowd flow like water occurred while I was submerged in water during a life-threatening situation in which I almost drowned. Recollecting this event from two decades ago still gives me a PTSD-like panic attack that takes my breath away.
On the morning of August 15, 1999, I put on my wetsuit along with about 2,000 other Ironman triathletes to compete in the inaugural Lake Placid triathlon. The 2.4-mile swim leg of these long-distance swim, bike, run events usually takes place in the ocean, where there is plenty of space to spread out.
Unfortunately, as the name of this particular triathlon suggests, the swim leg at Ironman Lake Placid takes place in a relatively small lake, and the race was oversold. Because of the cramped conditions, swimmers had to do a short .6 mile out-and-back twice; this meant athletes literally had to swim over each other if they wanted to get from point A to B by covering the shortest distance of a straight line. Additionally, the shoreline of the lake was too small to accommodate thousands of athletes. As you can see in the video below, in the early days of Ironman Lake Placid, this swim start was complete chaos and created really hazardous conditions.
Just like Bain and Bartolo describe in their research on marathon runners waiting to start a race in different chutes, once the group of swimmers was in motion, they became like a collective wave or rip current that wasn't guided by individual intentions. Because all the triathletes at the starting line were heading for the same turn-around buoy on the horizon, there was no way for the smaller stream of swimmers trickling in from the left to merge with the tsunami of athletes gushing in from the right.
When I did Lake Placid back in '99, I got trapped a few feet underneath a collective mass of slippery black neoprene worn by hundreds of swimmers coming in from the right side of the lake like a tidal wave. It was impossible to breathe. These swimmers were all in a big flow channel that kept them surging forward together en masse. Due to bad luck and not understanding how the fluid dynamics of this crowded swim would work, I was stuck on the left side, where a bottleneck formed, and there was no flow.
With huge quantities of water churning and complete mayhem at the starting line of this first-time event, nobody even knew that a few unlucky athletes were trapped with me in a whirlpool that was created by the opposing currents of swimmers in different flow channels. All of the cheering, splashing, and rushing adrenaline of athletes and spectators made it impossible for anyone to communicate sensible instructions once the starting gun was fired. The Ironman Lake Placid swim start is the closest I've ever come to losing consciousness and thinking I was going to die in an athletic competition. It was terrifying.
"We show that reorienting the direction of motion of a polarized crowd at once is impossible when relying only on locally accessible signals. Orientational cues must be provided to the entire assembly to change its direction of motion. We also predict the time it takes to set in motion, or to stop, a crowd of a given extent by providing information at its boundary."
Based on these hydrodynamic principles, there was no way for race volunteers to give orientational cues to thousands of polarized swimmers once they were in motion. Thankfully, in 2013, Ironman race organizers began to change the mass-start format of the swim to a rolling start of smaller waves, which lets swimmers trickle out of corrals in a staggered fashion that significantly reduces risks.
In a statement, the organizers of Ironman North America said, "Both Ironman Coeur d'Alene and Ironman Lake Placid will feature rolling starts in 2013. Athletes will enter the water in a continuous stream through a controlled access point, similar to how running road races are started. An athlete's times will start when they cross timing mats under the swim arch."
The final example of hydrodynamics and big crowds flowing like water in a way that caused some bodily harm (and maybe almost killed me) occurred at a general admission concert by The Clash in 1982. When I went to see The Clash at Cape Cod Coliseum in August of '82, their song "Rock the Casbah" was a top-ten hit on the Billboard Hot 100. Everyone at the concert was amped-up and extremely enthusiastic to see this chart-topping British band.
From a crowd dynamics perspective, the problem with Cape Cod Coliseum (which closed in 1984) was that the owners had haphazardly converted an old ice skating rink into a concert venue without giving much thought to crowd safety. Because the concert was general admission with no assigned seats, everyone crammed onto the main floor, which became a mosh pit.
When I went to this Clash concert as a teenager, I arrived early to be near the front of the crowd. Unfortunately, this meant I got wedged up against a concrete barrier near the stage and was pinned there just a few songs after the concert began. To this day, whenever I hear "Magnificent Seven," the unique drum beats of this song remind me of the rhythmic pulse I felt with each wave of exuberance from the crowd smashing my body against the concrete barrier. Each wave of collective movement from the sold-out crowd pushed my lower body against the waist-high blockade with more and more force in a way that felt like it might split me in half. Luckily, some security guards finally started pulling people up over the barrier before we were pulverized by the sea of humanity unwittingly crushing us in waves that started at the back of the arena.
In the video below, lead singer of the Clash, Joe Strummer, describes watching fluid-like collective movements of big crowds at Shea Stadium from his vantage point on stage.
My personal encounter with a wall of people almost crushing me at a rock concert occurred a few years after The Who concert disaster in 1979. The New York Times reported on this incident in an article, "11 Killed and 8 Badly Hurt in Crush Before Rock Concert in Cincinnati." This article describes the dangerous water-like rush of a massive crowd, "At the time of the incident, eight of the coliseum's many doors had reportedly been opened, creating consternation among the fans lined up outside one door at the southwest corner, which remained shut. The police later said coliseum officials failed to open enough doors to handle the crowd. As the doors sprang open and the fans rushed forward, many fell and were trampled."

The Progress Singapore Party (abbreviation: PSP) is an opposition political party in Singapore and is one of the three contemporary political parties represented in Parliament, alongside the governing People's Action Party (PAP) and opposition Workers' Party (WP).

History

The party was founded in 2019 by Tan Cheng Bock and 11 other members. They, together with Lee Hsien Yang, expressed that the current PAP leadership has "lost its way" and deviated from the founding principles of its founding fathers.

The party was officially registered on 28 March 2019 after being approved by the Registry of Societies. The initial formation included 12 members, including some former People's Action Party's politicians. Party founder Tan Cheng Bock explained that the forming of the political party was a result of an erosion of good governance in terms of transparency, independence and accountability. The party also cited ensuring accountability from the People's Action Party and job creation as their main focus. Tan had previously contested the 2011 presidential election, in which he won 34.85% of the popular vote but lost by a small margin of 7,269 votes to former deputy prime minister Tony Tan.

An event to commemorate the party's launch was planned at the Singapore Expo on 15 June, but police permits required for the event were not approved in time. The event was postponed to 3 August and was re-located to the Swissotel Merchant Court Hotel, attracting an audience of 1,000 people. The event was also live-streamed to twenty-five thousand viewers online.

During 2019, on 10 September, the PSP launched an event series called "PSP Talks", in which party members invited thought leaders and subject matter experts to share their insights and ideas on important national issues and policies. The first forum was conducted on 10 September and ex-GIC chief economist Yeoh Kam Leong was invited to speak about poverty in Singapore and the policy gaps in Singapore's social safety nets.

The second PSP Talks forum was held on 19 December. Veteran architect Tay Kheng Soon was invited to speak on "Politics and Planning: The Future of Singapore". He discussed some of the problems Singapore faced, such as how meritocracy has devolved into elitism and the obsolete town planning system. He also talked about the possibility of Singapore having five different elections for five local governments, each governing a Community Development Council and a central government elected from the five local governments.

On 19 October 2019, Tan led party members, volunteers and members of the public to blood banks for a PSP community blood donation drive called "Giving The Gift of Life", citing a nationwide shortage of type O blood. Tan also encouraged Singaporeans to donate blood regularly.

On 17 January 2020, at its new year dinner, the party announced a reshuffling of leadership. Two central executive committee members (CEC) stepped down and five new members joined the party's CEC. Tan said "I am looking for a team to mentor, so many have stepped forward... PSP is now managed by a team. It is not just the Tan Cheng Bock party, it is the people's party." The party's theme song "March of Change" and party mascot "Otica" was also unveiled.

On 27 January, PSP officially opened its new headquarters at Bukit Timah Shopping Centre. Tan mentioned that the party intends to stay for the long haul and that the headquarters will host party talks and seminars.

On 1 May, potential candidate Daniel Teo was expelled from the party after a video he produced was leaked saying that the party had "been infiltrated and funded by foreign sources". The party denied this. Among the PSP members Teo accused was Ravi Philemon. Teo later admitted that the allegations made in his video are complete without foundation and acted in his own capacity. He apologised unreservedly to Philemon and other members named in the video. Philemon resigned from the party on 12 May, after he got the unreserved apology from Teo, but refused to elaborate on the reasons for the decision. In response to this incident and the departure of other PSP members, Tan said that "there are many waiting to join us" and it is not an issue for the party.

2020 Singaporean General Election

During the 2020 general election, the party garnered 48% of the votes in West Coast GRC, allowing them to claim 2 Non-constituency Member of Parliament (NCMP) seats in the 14th Parliament of Singapore.

Pre-election
On 29 September 2019, Tan led about 300 party members and volunteers in PSP's first official island-wide walkabout. The walkabout called "29 on 29" was conducted at 29 constituencies (16 Group Representative Constituencies and 13 Single Member Constituencies). PSP assistant secretary-general Anthony Lee said that the PSP sent out a friendly note as a form of courtesy to let the other opposition parties know of its walkabout plans and that the PSP will continue to work with other opposition parties and wishes to maintain a good relationship with them. Tan did not rule out the possibility of having an opposition coalition for the next General Election. Ravi Philemon (former Singapore People's Party's member) noted that Tan has been accepted as the leader of the opposition by the other opposition parties.

In October 2019, the party put out calls for volunteers to join the party as polling and counting agents, ahead of other political parties. The party regarded both play an important role in the electoral process.

On 4 November 2019, PSP called for an opposition alliance meeting which representatives from seven opposition political parties attended. It was a private meeting. According to Tan, the meeting was to discuss future plans and to get to the members of the various parties to get to know one another.

On 9 November 2019, Progress Singapore Party began its second island-wide walkabout. About 220 party members and volunteers took buses and trains to travel around the island.

On 12 January 2020, the party had their second door-to-door house visits at West Coast GRC which was led by Tan and joined by more than 200 members and volunteers. The event involved 22 teams and covered 50 residential blocks. A walkabout of about 40 members was also conducted in 2019 within the same GRC.

Pre-nomination day events
Lee Hsien Yang joined the PSP as a member on 24 June 2020, but did not contest in the forthcoming election, claiming that the PAP had "lost its way".

The Reform Party has accused the PSP for not living up to an agreement so that they could avoid a three-way fight with the PAP in Yio Chu Kang SMC. However, the PSP responded that no such agreement existed.

Final result
On 10 July 2020, despite posing strong challenges in among the nine constituencies and fielding the largest slate of candidates this election with 24, none of the contested seats ended up victorious; however, the seat that the party came closest to winning was West Coast GRC where Tan lead the team, being defeated by the ruling People's Action Party team led by Communications and Information minister S Iswaran in a 51.69%-48.31% of the votes. Due to being the best result among non-elect candidates and 10 opposition politicians having successfully been elected (Workers' Party winning Aljunied GRC, Hougang SMC and Sengkang GRC), they were entitled two seats for the Non-constituency Member of Parliament to fulfil the 12-opposition minimum. Their vote share was higher than the national average (38.76%), having garnered 40.86% of the votes based on the contested constituencies, and 10.18% based on the overall popular vote cast. Prior to the results, Tan earlier revealed that he will decline taking up the NCMP position calling it as a 'ploy', but allows decision to be made by the other team members. On 14 July, PSP revealed Hazel Poa and Leong Mun Wai as the two members who would be taking up the NCMP seats.

Post-Election
Hazel Poa and Leong Mun Wai stepped down as office bearers to focus on their NCMP duties. Both remained as CEC members and are involved in the party's activities. Francis Yuen took over as assistant general-secretary, while the vice-chairman post remained vacant.

Since then, PSP has formed its women's wing and youth wing to create more targeted policies helping these groups, headed by Tanjong Pagar GRC candidates Wendy Low and Terence Soon respectively. In addition, a Parliamentary Secretariat was formed to help the NCMPs with policy research for their duties, which is headed by both Leong Mun Wai and Hazel Poa. The women's wing was officially launched on 30 January 2021.

The PSP's CEC underwent a leadership renewal in March 2021; 11 CEC members stepped down and six new CEC members were elected. On 1 April 2021, PSP announced that Francis Yuen has taken over as the secretary-general of the party, with Tan Cheng Bock being the chairperson. Wang Swee Chuang hence became the vice-chairperson. Later on 26 April, youth wing head Terence Soon resigned citing career opportunities and family considerations, with newly elected member Jess Chua taking over three days later.

On 11 August 2021, party member Brad Bowyer resigned from the party after he made a post comparing differentiated measures for those vaccinated with the Holocaust, sparking controversy and condemnation including from the Israeli Embassy in Singapore. Bowyer has since stood by his views.

Following that, on 25 October 2021, treasurer and party member Kayla Low resigned from the Party citing frequent travelling requirements as part of her new career, although she would continue to volunteer with the Party. Party member Peggie Chua took over as the new treasurer. The following month, former party member Kala Manickam sued the party over claims of wrongful termination and seeks to have $10,000 reimbursed, to which the party leadership said there was no basis to the lawsuit, listing various events that led to her termination.

On 14 February 2022, Kumaran Pillai told party leaders he would step down from the positions of communications chief and party spokesman, taking a "leave of absence" for an unspecified period of time due to business ventures and health considerations, including a frozen shoulder sustained during a walkabout in the 2020 general election. Pillai will still be in the central executive committee, with Jonathan Tee taking over as the new communications chief, announced three days later.

Issues/proposals raised

Budget
In February 2020, PSP announced its first public policy proposal which includes: a) Broader relief package for businesses, b) Expansionary budget to tide through the current crises, c) Fiscal budget is not a goodie-bag, d) Building a sustainable economy, e) No to GST hike, f) Taxpayers should not be burdened for large infrastructure projects and g) A prudent approach to expenditures.

PSP welcomes the Government's immediate short-term relief to assist Singaporeans and local companies in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. The party also called for a more "broad-based" approach in helping the transport, retail, and food and beverage industries and conducting a review of the education system. The party is in favour of more permanent plans rather than short-term occasional handouts.

Climate change
On climate change, Tan Cheng Bock has suggested that government and government-linked companies should provide incentives for renewable energy usage.

Employment of foreign manpower
Tan Cheng Bock has promised to call for the review of the India–Singapore Comprehensive Economic Cooperation Agreement (CECA), one of the terms which allow the free movement of Indian professionals in 127 sectors to enter and work in Singapore.
He said that there is a need to ensure job priority for Singaporeans and CECA has brought a lot of unhappiness among Singaporean professionals, managers, executives and technicians (PMETs) who feel vulnerable in their jobs. He calls for the government to publish a balance sheet for CECA, to show how Singapore and Singaporeans have benefited from this agreement, how many local jobs have gone to Indian professionals and how many Singaporeans have gone to India.

According to the PSP's manifesto published for the 2020 Singaporean General Election, the PSP wishes to introduce a quota for the number of Employment Passes and to lower the quota for the number of S-Passes and Work Permits. The manifesto also states that the dependence on foreign labour in Singapore has caused problems such as congestion, social strains and depressed wages. By curbing what the PSP describes as the easy supply of foreign manpower, they hope to encourage employers to invest in equipment or processes for higher productivity.

Protection from Online Falsehoods and Manipulation Act (POFMA)

PSP issued a statement on POFMA, stating that the POFMA does not measure up to standards of transparency and accountability and when news involved the government, it also fails the standard of independence. The party views that POFMA should be the prerogative of the Courts of Singapore. The PSP's manifesto released for the 2020 Singaporean General Election states that POFMA should be reviewed.

Central Provident Fund
The PSP wants Medishield Life premiums to be paid for by the Government. They are currently paid for using Medisave.

Small and medium enterprises
The PSP wants to provide assistance to local SMEs by giving them priority in public sector procurements, investing in local SMEs and encouraging cooperation amongst them, direct support to them to restructure their businesses and expand overseas, and reducing business costs for them.

Taxes
In their manifesto for the 2020 Singapore General Election, the PSP stated that they wanted to freeze tax and fee increases until 2025.

Racial harmony
In response to a video by entertainer Preeti Nair (known by her moniker 'Preetipls' and her brother Subhas Nair) which lambasted the use of racial brownface in an advertisement, then-Central Executive Committee member Michelle Lee stated that although the siblings had used inappropriate language in their video, she found the police response in the aftermath to be 'high-handed' and 'harsh'. Lee acknowledged the video by the siblings reflected grievances that the minority races held in Singapore, and should not be ignored.

The unity of Singaporeans regardless of race, language or religion was one of the principles which the PSP said guided their social policies in their 2020 manifesto.

Voting age
During the party launch ceremony, Michelle Lee called for the lowering of voting age from the current 21 to 18 in line with international standards. In her speech, she criticised the current government policy on voting age as being 'behind the times'.

Alternative voices in Parliament
The PSP's 2020 manifesto states that the over-dominance of the People's Action Party, which has consistently held over 90% of the seats in the Parliament of Singapore, should be reduced. They want stronger alternative voices in Parliament offering different views and suggestions. More alternative voices in Parliament is one of the PSP's priorities in political development stated in the manifesto.

Public housing
One of the PSP's priorities laid out in their 2020 manifesto was to address HDB lease decay. They hope to provide en-bloc redevelopment for all old HDB flats, peg new flat prices to income levels and bring down housing costs for young Singaporeans to make them free to pursue their entrepreneurial goals.

Income inequality
The PSP's 2020 manifesto states that they hope to reduce inequality and improve social mobility. It also states that they wish to exempt basic necessities from the Goods and Services Tax, which is a regressive tax that disproportionately affects the lower-income.

Other issues
Lee commented on the high ministerial salary keep ministers in their ivory towers which prompted them afraid to take risks, disagree or lose their jobs. The highest-paid minister earns approximately 43 times the average Singaporean and an entry-level minister earns half of that. The PSP's 2020 manifesto states that ministerial salaries should be cut and pegged to the median income. They believe this is a form of personal sacrifice.

Michelle Lee also pointed out that more Singaporean students are turned away from tertiary education and the government spends almost $130 million on foreign students' scholarships.

While the point of Conformation events (Dog Shows) is to define the best breeding stock of pure-bred dogs, many responsible dog owners would like to compete in the show ring with their pet dog whom they had altered.
The United Kennel Club offers "Altered Conformation Classes". Here, my neutered 1 and a half year old keeshond, Clancy, proudly stands in front of his earned ribbons.
When I got my keeshond puppy, Clancy, I decided I wanted to try every dog sport I could with my dog.
Though I had little interest in breeding Clancy, I did want to continue to show him. I enjoyed the excitement of being in the show ring and admiring all the other beautiful dogs. Most of all, I enjoyed talking to and learning from the other keeshond owners. So I contacted Clancy's breeder to discuss obtaining a "Full Rights" AKC registration and was given the option to do so because she believed in us. Responsible dog breeders try their best to prevent people who buy their puppies from irresponsibly breeding them, so I appreciated the trust that my breeder had in me to give me that option. While I thought about the decision (full rights cost more money), I unfortunately discovered that Clancy had a health concern so I decided to get him neutered. There were many other things we could compete in besides Conformation… but here I had such a beautiful dog and I wanted the show ring experience. Then someone introduced me to the United Kennel Club (UKC).
In conformation events, the judge inspects each dog to compare it to what the breed standard is. The dog that most closely compares physically and characteristically to what it is supposed to be, wins. Only those dogs that best represent their breed and have had various health testing should be allowed to breed to produce future generations that uphold those standards. (Breeding should ONLY be done with health-tested dogs that closely adhere to the breed standards with the goal to improve the specific breed of dog. It ends up costing more money than what's made selling the puppies. It should only be done by knowledgeable breed enthusiasts.) So, that is essentially the reason to show dogs. However, there's people like me that want to "do it for fun" or to practice for a future show dog career, so it's wonderful that the United Kennel Club provides an avenue to do that.
Clancy competing in the UKC Best in Show Altered.
Clancy rocked the ring and won Best in Show (UKC – Altered)! He also earned two legs towards his UKC Rally 1 title on the same day!
Clancy and I did 4 UKC events on the same day! Here's the results: In the morning we earned 2nd place in Rally O1, and Best in Show (altered class)! In the afternoon, we earned 1st place in Rally O1 and Reserve Best in Show (altered)! A good day!
UPDATE (JUNE 2013): Clancy just received his ALTERED CHAMPION certificate in the mail! Woohoo! He now has ALT CH in front of his UKC registered name.


(SKY NEWS) – A boa constrictor has been pictured apparently eating a pigeon on an east London street.
Photos and video on social media showed the snake wrapped around the bird in the middle of a pathway outside a shop in Leytonstone.
Dave Fawbert, the editor of Shortlist magazine, shared an image on Twitter with the caption: "Just a python eating a pigeon on Leytonstone High Road #LondonLife".
The RSPCA said an inspector had gone to the scene, but could not give details on what had happened to the pigeon.
The snake was taken to a nearby wildlife centre, where it was being assessed.
The RSPCA has urged potential reptile owners to do their research about what care is needed before taking on the responsibility of an exotic pet.
Sounds like Putin on Brexit and the USA. Snakes everywhere swallowing up the nonthinkers and non-critical thinking populations of the world that lives on propaganda.

Anthony Joshua, £150,000 customized Range Rover stolen
September 7, 2018 editor0
£150,000 bespoke Range Rover has been stolen from boxing heavyweight champion, Anthony Joshua, in the early hours of yesterday.
Joshua has vowed to round up the thieves who stole the vehicle just days before his WBA, IBF and WBO heavyweight title defense against Alexander Povetkin.
The Range Rover was taken from a relative's home in London on Thursday while the boxer was training at the English Institute of Sport (EIS) in Sheffield, South Yorkshire.
A source spoke about the theft:
'In the early hours of yesterday morning, Anthony Joshua's personalised Range Rover was stolen from outside a relative's house while he was away training at the Sheffield Institute of Sport. He has reported it stolen.'
'He's the unlikeliest of targets for car thieves as the car is completely personalised with its registration number while head rests, steering wheel, a badge and even door interiors are marked with the Anthony Joshua signature. It's also fitted with a tracker. And who'd want to be caught stealing from the heavyweight champion of the world?
'So he'll be absolutely gutted as he loves that car, which is shared with family members while he's away. The family member who had it taken from their driveway is said to be devastated.
Anthony Joshua received the high-performance Range Rover SV Autobiography Dynamic in March this year. He worked with designers and technicians to create various exclusive features, including its premium paint finish which is named after him, World Champion Graphite.
It also comes with a personalized storage unit in the boot and boxing glove pattern surrounds on the door handles.

Here's my weekly round-up of local news for 9 – 15 March.
The mystery noticeboard which appeared last week on the corner of Headington Road and Headley Way acquired its first notices on Monday – posters for performances at the Oxford Playhouse and the New Theatre.
The fire in Colemans Hill, which was breaking news as last week's Headington Headlines went to press, is being treated as arson. Three people were taken to hospital for treatment.
Police released an image of a man they want to question in connection with an assault that happened in The White Horse on Sunday 1 March.
Lovers of the 29 Old High Street saga will be both delighted and dismayed, even angry, to learn that Martin Young will not be prosecuted for failing to bring his property up to standard because the Council has run out of time for the legal process. Local taxpayers will now have to pick up the bill of at least £16,000, including Mr Young's costs.
The decision to remove the solar panels from the roofs of the new houses facing Bury Knowle Park (see HH204 or this Oxford Times article) has triggered one of the biggest local outcries since the suggestion of building on the Waitrose car park. Posts on the e-democracy forum queried the need to remove the panels, saying the need for renewable energy outweighed and visual impact. You can even sign a petition calling on the Council not to remove them. However, Friends of Old Headington and Friends of Bury Knowle Park take the opposing view, while Cllr Roy Darke has said on the forum that he believes the panels will now stay.
The City Council, which is responsible for naming new streets, is asking Barton & Northway residents for suggestions for the names of over 30 new streets in the Barton Park development. The Barton Community website says you can tweet your suggestions to @oxcitycommunity with the hashtag #BartonSNN. There are also links for email, facebook, and even a good old-fashioned drop-in box.
Two sheds in Risinghurst (aka Headington, according to the Oxford Mail) caught fire late on Saturday night. Arson is suspected.
