The multi-million pound Connecting Shropshire partnership rolling out faster fibre broadband across the county continues to gain momentum, partners Shropshire Council and BT confirmed as the ambitious programme celebrates its first anniversary today (March 27).
Around 6,500 homes and businesses are now able to connect to the technology thanks to the Connecting Shropshire partnership. And in the last two weeks Albrighton, Cosford, Halfway House, Minsterley, Pontesbury, Westbury and Yockleton became the latest communities where high-speed fibre broadband has 'gone live' for the first time as a result of Connecting Shropshire. Around 3,500 premises in these communities are now able to connect to the new fibre network which will deliver download speeds of up to 80 megabits per second and upload speeds of up to 20Mbps*.
The partners also used today's anniversary to reveal some fascinating facts and figures which further demonstrate the scale of the engineering operation being undertaken.
And poured around 55 tonnes of concrete, to make faster broadband a reality.
Connecting Shropshire is a partnership between Shropshire Council, BT and the Government's Broadband Delivery UK (BDUK) that will enable more than 62,000 rural homes and businesses in Shropshire (excluding Telford and Wrekin) to access faster broadband.
Ian Binks, BT's regional manager for Shropshire and the West Midlands, said: "Today marks another major milestone for the partnership. We've achieved so much in the first year, but we're already focused on the work that needs to be done in the year ahead.
People will continue to be informed about the progress of the programme via the website www.connectingshropshire.co.uk, Shropshire councillors, parish councils and regular updates in the media.
The combined investment from Connecting Shropshire and the private sector's commercial roll-out plans means 93 per cent of homes and businesses in the Shropshire Council area will have access to faster fibre broadband by the end of Spring 2016.
Shropshire homes and businesses are able to order fibre broadband from a wide range of internet service providers as the network being installed by Openreach is available to all providers on an open, wholesale basis, thereby ensuring competitive prices. To check whether you can access fibre broadband services contact your internet service provider.
Montford Bridge became the first rural community to be connected as part of Connecting Shropshire in December.
Work has begun in the next 25 exchange areas to benefit from the £24.6 million Connecting Shropshire programme. On Friday 7th February, partners Shropshire Council and BT today announced more details about the areas where people will be able to start accessing faster fibre broadband over the next 14 months.
After several months of planning and surveying work, engineers will begin putting in the fibre optic cable and new roadside cabinets that are needed for people to get access to the new fibre broadband network.
At the same time fibre broadband will be extended in the parts of Bridgnorth, Ludlow, Market Drayton and Oswestry not already covered by any commercial rollout.
Work to connect the remaining exchange areas in this particular phase will begin in the second half of this year, with the majority completed by the end of Spring 2015. By this time more than 30,000 premises are expected to have been provided with access to fibre broadband, marking the half-way point in the Connecting Shropshire programme.
Connecting Shropshire will continue to keep people informed of the progress of the programme in these and other areas via the website www.connectingshropshire.co.uk, Shropshire councillors, parish councils and regular updates in the media.

Steve Charmley, Shropshire Council Cabinet member responsible for broadband, said: "Following on from recent announcements about communities getting fibre broadband ahead of schedule, and further phase one communities due to get fibre broadband by the spring, we are building confidence in the programme as a whole to bring faster broadband to the current and future generations".
Chirk exchange is located in Wales, but Connecting Shropshire has the responsibility for providing access to faster fibre broadband for homes and businesses in the Shropshire Council area.
The next communities to benefit from the £24.6 million Connecting Shropshire fibre broadband partnership were announced today by Shropshire Council and BT.
Alberbury, Aston on Clun, Boningale, Clungunford, Cosford, Cross Lane Head, Halfway House, Little Brampton, Ploxgreen, Pontesford, Purslow, Quatford, Snailbeach, Stoke St. Milborough, Upton Magna, Westbury, Withington and Yockleton will be the next places to get high-speed broadband as part of the programme. Fibre broadband will be coming soon to these areas with people able to order services from Spring 2014.
Last month Montford Bridge became the first rural community to 'go live' as part of Connecting Shropshire. The programme is gathering momentum with roadside fibre broadband cabinets going live each week, including in Harlescott, which was announced earlier this month, with Bicton also now 'live'. Albrighton, Ford, Minsterley and Pontesbury will follow before the end of March. Residents and businesses in these locations will be able to enjoy broadband download speeds of up to 80 megabits per second and uploads of up to 20 Mbps*.

Firms at a business park on the outskirts of Shrewsbury are the latest to reap the benefits of the multi-million pound rollout of high-speed fibre broadband by Connecting Shropshire.
Battlefield Enterprise Park in Harlescott has become the first business park in the county to start benefitting from the partnership between Shropshire Council and BT.
Tuesday 14th January 2014, saw the 'switch on' of four new fibre broadband roadside cabinets in the Harlescott area, with others to follow serving in total around 3,500 homes and businesses in the Harlescott area.
Engineers will complete the upgrade works that will serve most businesses on the Battlefield Enterprise Park over the coming weeks.
When an area has 'gone live', businesses and residents can order fibre broadband from a wide range of internet service providers as the network is open to all providers on an open, wholesale basis, thereby ensuring competitive prices. They will be able to enjoy download speeds of up to 80 megabits per second (Mbps) and upload speeds of up to 20Mbps*.
To coincide with this latest development, Connecting Shropshire has organised a free drop-in session specifically tailored towards helping local businesses wanting to know more about how they might benefit from the new technology.
It's being held at Shropshire Food Enterprise Centre in Vanguard Way, Battlefield Enterprise Park, SY1 3TG, on Wednesday, January 29, from 12 noon until 6.30pm, with advisors from Connecting Shropshire and the Council's Business and Enterprise team on hand throughout. Any local business is welcome to attend.
Connecting Shropshire is a partnership between Shropshire Council, BT and Broadband Delivery UK (BDUK) that will enable more than 62,000 homes and businesses in Shropshire (excluding Telford and Wrekin) to access faster broadband by the end of Spring 2016.
It builds on BT's own commercial rollout which will bring fibre broadband to more than 123,000 homes and businesses across the county by the end of Spring 2014. The combined investment programmes will mean 93 per cent of homes and businesses in the Shropshire Council area will have access to fibre broadband by the end of Spring 2016.
Steve Charmley, Shropshire Council Cabinet member with responsibility for broadband, said: "I'm really happy to see the first roadside cabinet to provide fibre based broadband to a business park. Connecting Shropshire is starting to provide access to fibre broadband in a number of communities which would not have benefitted without the intervention of the Council. I'm especially keen to see local businesses embrace faster broadband to boost their productivity and long-term sustainability".
Ian Binks, BT's regional manager for Shropshire and the West Midlands, said: "Increasingly we're seeing how the internet is impacting on almost every aspect of our lives. That's why the availability of faster fibre broadband is so important.
Nick Chavasse MBE, Shropshire Business Board champion for broadband, added: "It's good news for the local economy that Connecting Shropshire is starting to provide access to fibre based broadband for businesses in the Harlescott area of Shrewsbury. Battlefield Industrial Estate and Enterprise Park is the largest concentration of businesses in the Shropshire Council area. Fast and reliable broadband connectivity helps businesses to work smarter in a number of ways, including communicating better and exploiting new market opportunities".
Fibre based broadband has arrived in Montford Bridge, Connecting Shropshire announced today.
More than 160 homes and businesses in Montford Bridge will have access to the new fibre enabled network as the first roadside cabinet to be funded by the programme is 'switched on' by Steve Charmley, Shropshire Council portfolio holder responsible for broadband, and Steve Henderson, BT's general manager for the West Midlands.
The switch on is part of a national initiative, which sees green fibre broadband cabinets in many parts of the country 'going live' simultaneously today. "Super Switch On Day" marks the progress of superfast broadband partnerships with Broadband Delivery UK (BDUK) – the government agency providing £780 million in public funding to extend superfast broadband to 95 per cent of the UK by 2017.
Montford Bridge is just one of a number of towns and villages up and down the country that today join the 200,000 premises in mostly rural locations around the UK that are already enjoying access to faster fibre broadband speeds as a result of the BDUK programme. The national rollout is accelerating, with many projects already ahead of schedule; the work in Montford Bridge is two months ahead of target. Already 10,000 premises per week are gaining access to superfast broadband nationally, and this will increase to 25,000 per week in spring 2014, increasing to 40,000 per week by summer 2014.
Connecting Shropshire, a partnership between Shropshire Council and BT, builds on BT's own commercial roll-out of fibre broadband so that 93 per cent of homes and businesses in the Council area will have access to fibre broadband by the end of spring 2016.
The arrival of fibre broadband in Montford Bridge was welcomed by the Environment Secretary Owen Paterson, who said: "The roll-out of superfast broadband has the potential to transform rural areas, bridging the age-old gap between rural and urban. It will allow businesses to grow and expand and communities to access services in a way that they've not been able to before.
Montford Bridge will be joined by more than 6,000 homes and businesses in Albrighton, Harlescott, Minsterley and Pontesbury that will have access to high speed fibre broadband in the next three months as a result of the multi-million Connecting Shropshire programme. Once an area is enabled, people should check with their internet service provider (ISP) regarding fibre broadband availability, cost and speed.
BT's investment of £8.6 million in Connecting Shropshire bolsters the public sector investment, which includes £8.2 million from Shropshire Council and £7.8 million Government funding from BDUK.
Steve Henderson added: "All over the country fibre broadband is changing people's lives. It provides a digital gateway to a wealth of opportunities whether it is supporting how we work, how we learn, how we communicate with friends and family, or how we entertain ourselves.
"Access to high-speed broadband is rapidly becoming a key ingredient for economic growth and is also a major determining factor in where businesses decide to locate.
Openreach, BT's local network business, is primarily deploying fibre-to-the-cabinet (FTTC) technology, where the fibre runs from the exchange to a local roadside cabinet. In addition to download speeds of up to 80Mbps, FTTC also delivers upload speeds of up to 20Mbps1 — and could deliver even faster speeds in the future.
Openreach has also started to make fibre-to-the-premises (FTTP) technology, where the fibre runs all the way to the home or business, commercially available on demand2 in certain areas where fibre broadband has been deployed, and plans to expand access in due course. FTTP-on-demand offers the top current download speed of 330Mbps1.
Fibre broadband at home means everyone in the family can do their own thing online, all at the same time, whether it's downloading music in minutes or watching catch-up TV; streaming HD or 3D movies in the few minutes it takes to make popcorn; or posting photos and videos to social networking sites in seconds. Fibre improves the quality of online experiences and supports exciting new developments in internet services.
Openreach engineers will install the fibre network which will be open to all communications providers on an equal wholesale basis. Households and businesses will therefore benefit from a highly competitive market, bringing greater choice and affordable prices.
2 Openreach will levy an installation charge for FTTP on demand. It will be up to service providers to decide whether they pass that on to businesses or consumers wishing to use the product.
Please note due to the current network topography, and the economics of deployment, it is likely that some premises within selected exchange areas will not initially be able to access fibre-based broadband. Openreach is considering alternative solutions for these locations.

When we talk about mental illnesses, we refer to imbalances that manifest as alterations in behavior, reasoning, or recognition of reality, among other symptoms.
In the following article, we'll share with you some of the most common mental illnesses, although they aren't always treated properly.
Mental illnesses don't discriminate against age or gender. They can appear one day all of a sudden or can grow little by little.
In recent years, the public health system has put a little more focus on them. After all, when diagnosed early enough, patients can greatly improve their lives.
Anxiety disorders are one of the most common mental illnesses in the 21st century. They can appear in various stressful or distressing situations.
This disorder can happen when there are changes in the life of an individual. It may appear difficult for the person to carry out their job, talk with family, meet strangers, etc.
On the other hand, the general imbalance interferes in the person's everyday life due to the fact that they are always worried about something: leaving the door open, someone robbing the car while it's parked, something bad happening to a loved one, having a car accident, etc.
Schizophrenic people may hear voices or have delusions, which invade their thoughts and causes them to change how they act. For example, they tell the person to harm someone else or themselves. Someone who suffers from this disorder can noticeably change from day to day. They feel unable to control internal monologues of the characters.
Schizophrenia affects as many men as women, and usually appears between the ages of 16 and 30. The cause is still unknown. As for treatment, doctors generally opt for psychosocial therapy and antipsychotic drugs.
This is another one of the most common mental illnesses.
Phobias go beyond a fear or dislike for a situation, object, or animal. It's more than just not liking spiders or clowns.
A phobia is an irrational disorder that doesn't allow the person to enjoy life out of the fear that the cause of the phobia will appear.
This falls under the term "mood disorders" and causes very exaggerated changes in emotions or manic episodes.
For example, this may include roaring with laughter one minute and crying uncontrollably the next. The extreme behavior can cause problems with social relations. This is based on the fact that the people close to them don't know how to react to these drastic changes.
When someone suffers from this anxiety-related disorder, they experience obsessive feelings, images, and ideas that aren't real. They associate fear, stress, and continual distress and imagine daily problems.
It goes beyond far organizing coat hangers or books because they don't look properly in order. A person suffering from Obsessive Compulsive Disorder OCD may resort to extreme behaviors, like not stepping on lines on the floor, wanting to adjust everything they walk past, not being able to sleep if the closet door is open, organizing things multiple times, etc.
This problem is appearing more and more frequently. In a panic attack, the person experiences difficulty breathing, feeling dizzy and nauseous, weakness, and a racing heart. It can also appear with other symptoms such as tingling in their hands, excessive sweating, feeling weak, and chest pains. It's as if they are drowning and can't control the situation.
Panic attacks can happen at any moment, in any place, because of an irrational fear. They are incapacitating and can be hereditary. Without professional help, they can cause agoraphobia or fear of open spaces. They are afraid that they could have a panic attack at any given moment.
This is one of the most common mental illnesses and in many cases goes beyond distress or passing sadness.
Depressive disorder includes hopelessness, difficulty getting out of bed, feelings of inferiority and even suicidal thoughts. When these symptoms remain for weeks or months, they can change the person's life. This causes serious problems in their interpersonal relationships.
In this group, you will find anorexia nervosa, which is characterized by the obsession to control the food they consume and distorted body image (although they may be very thin, the person thinks they're fat when they look in the mirror).
It also includes bulimia nervosa, consisting of unusual dietary patterns. This may include binging and then purging to eliminate what was eaten (through laxatives or vomiting). This can stem from depression and low self-esteem.
This disorder is characterized by problems relating to other people. People who suffer from this disorder avoid all types of interactions with others. It doesn't matter whether they are family members, acquaintances or strangers.
The symptoms that are linked with this disorder could be: shyness, depression, solitude, violence, aggressiveness, among others. Additionally, they experience a large fear of rejection.
Those who suffer from this mental illness have an impulsive and weak personality. This causes them to always doubt everything. They can be calm and then, within a few minutes, feel anxious, hopele, or angry.
You could say that they live their lives to the fullest, and often have loving and intense relationships and idolize their partner.
Mental illness is more common than many think and isn't something that we should be afraid of. Instead, it's time we learn how to better understand it in order to help those who suffer from it to live happy, healthy and fulfilling lives.

After some thought, I realized that my first post was mostly about weight. My training for a triathlon has little or nothing to do with trying to loose weight. I'm training to get fit. I'm training so that I can lead a full life. I'm training so that I never turn down an opportunity to do something, because I'm too out of shape to do it.
I want to be swimming, biking, hiking, trail running, paddling and otherwise doing what ever it takes to be active with my family. Keeping up with two boys requires stamina and strength. Don't be confused, I'm not doing it for them. They are going to be active regardless. I'm doing it for me, because I want to be out there living life.
That being said: baby just fell asleep and I'm off for a walk. More to follow.
Go for it! My baby is 3 months old and I googled "post partum triathlon" and there you were! I'm training for a sprint tri at the end of Sept. She'll be about 5 months old. I did nothing during pregnancy, but have been working out steadily for about 6 weeks now. I think it's doable. Just look at your baby and think – If my body can do THAT, I can certainly do this!

Here's how electoral reform could work in Canada: four alternatives
posted by Mark Coffin | 800.60sc
One of the goals of the Charter Challenge for Fair Voting is to have the Supreme Court of Canada order the government to develop a voting system that is compliant with the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
This post introduces the types of voting systems that exist around the world, including the systems that would be strong candidates to replace the first-past-the-post voting system, if the Court were to call for its replacement.
There are nearly as many voting systems as there are countries in the world, all with their own strengths and weaknesses. In this post, I'll share some of the basics about what each system looks like in one spot.
Why consider electoral reform?
Voting systems are the foundation of our public institutions. We use our voting system to elect members of our Parliament who craft the laws of the land. The composition of Parliament determines the quality and brand of executive government (Prime Minister and Cabinet) that we have. The executive is responsible for hiring and firing the senior civil servants who oversee critical public services offered to Canadians.
A structure is only as strong as the foundation on which it rests. Finding the best voting system to serve the public interest improves the likelihood that everything derived from it - Parliament, executive, public services, laws and budgets - also serves the public interest.
While citizens interact in many different ways with government, elections are the only direct opportunity available to every Canadian to shape our government and hold our elected officials accountable. Therefore, it is important to consider which system ensures not only that every vote is counted, but that every vote counts.
Voting System Options for Canada
There are two main families of voting systems used throughout the world: winner-take-all systems, and proportional representation (PR) systems. Let's start with unpacking winner-take-all systems.
Winner-Take-All Voting Systems
Most winner-take-all systems are characterized by single-member districts (one MP per riding) where the winner is the candidate who receives the most votes. In the case of the first-past-the-post system, the winner just needs to receive a plurality, or more votes than anybody else. In the case of the alternative vote (AV) system, a candidate needs a majority of votes to win.
Case Note: The name 'winner-take-all' indicates the majoritarian nature of the system. In neither system is there any means to account for voters who voted for losing candidates. As such, if the court finds that the first-past-the-post voting system is in violation of the charter, and each Canadians right to 'effective representation' then it stands to reason that an AV system would also violate those rights.
The only practical difference between the two systems is the ballot, and how the ballots are counted to determine who the winner in each riding is. The riding boundaries and the number of MPs can stay the same.
First-past-the-post (FPTP)
In FPTP, voters mark their ballots for one candidate only, and the candidate with more votes than any other candidate wins, regardless of whether or not they have a majority.
The alternative vote system
In the alternative vote (AV) system voters rank the candidates on the ballot in order of preference.
How voting works in the alternative vote system
If one candidate receives a majority of first choice votes, they are elected. If no candidate receives a majority of first preference votes, the candidate with the fewest votes is eliminated, and a second round of counting occurs, where the lowest ranking candidate's votes are redistributed to the second choice marked on each ballot. The process repeats itself until one candidate receives a majority of votes.
The AV system is often simply called the ranked-ballot, or preferential ballot, and was system Prime Minister Justin Trudeau favoured (although few other parties did). It's worth noting that ranked-ballots can be used in proportional systems like the Single Transferable Vote, where the counting works differently in order to deliver a proportional result.
Proportional Representation Voting Systems
The second family of voting systems used around the world is Proportional Representation.
In proportional representation systems the share of the popular vote a party and its candidates earn are reflected in the number of seats the party holds in Parliament. For example: if a party's candidates earn 10% of the popular vote in a proportional system, they'll end up with roughly 10% of the seats in Parliament; if a party's candidates earn 40% of the votes, they'll get about 40% of the seats in Parliament; and so on…
There are as many types of proportional representation systems as there are countries that use them. In this post, we'll explore the main systems being used:
List Proportional Representation (List PR)
Mixed Member Proportional (MMP)
Single Transferable Vote (STV)
All of these systems use some kind of large multi-member district(s) to achieve proportionality. There are however, proposed systems that use single-member-districts to achieve proportionality.
Unlike winner-take-all systems, the three proportional systems we've mocked up for this post involve the use of larger districts (or ridings). The electoral map changes with each of these systems. In reality, the process of drafting new ridings is it's own technical exercise of ensuring equal-sized ridings, and determining appropriate district boundaries. We've drafted some loose models of what the results might look like in three provinces:
- a small province (New Brunswick)
- a mid-sized province (British Columbia)
- a large province (Quebec)
We begin with list proportional representation (list-PR). For the record, while List-PR is a system used in many countries around the world, that is advocated for by practically nobody in Canada. Explaining it first, however, makes the mixed-member-proportional system easier to understand later on.
List Proportional Representation (List PR): How it works
The closed-list ballot in list PR systems
The voters in List PR systems have one vote. If the system is a closed list system, like those in Spain, Israel or Argentina, the parties determine the ranking of candidates from their party and voters simply cast their ballot for their preferred party. The ranking of the candidates on the list determine the order in which the candidates are elected.
The open-list ballot in list PR systems
If the system is an open list system like Sweden, Denmark, the Netherlands, and Fiji, voters select their preferred candidate within the list provided by each party, and the vote for that candidate counts toward the popular vote for that party, and improves the ranking of that candidate on the party's list.
Multi-member districts in list PR systems
There are no single-member districts in most List PR systems. States that use List PR either divide the state into several large multi- member regional districts, like Sweden, Norway, and Denmark, or treat the entire state as one single district, like Fiji, Israel or the Netherlands.
In Canada, the largest possible district for a federal electoral district would be a single province. In the List PR model shown here, the district borders follow naturally distinct communities and regions, and the number of MPs is based on the population within the borders.
The size of the multi-member district can vary. For example, in densely populated areas like Montreal and Vancouver, a district could have a large number of voters and many MPs, unified by a common geography. On the other hand, a low-density region of northern Quebec or rural New Brunswick could be represented by only two MPs, where the ratio of voters to elected representatives is the same as elsewhere in the country, while not merging a rural community with a distinct urban community for political reasons.
Adjustment seats in list PR systems
Adjustment seats are often used in List-PR systems to improve proportionality of the statewide results, where seats are not assigned to a particular district, but their addition makes the results more proportional.
Counting votes and declaring winners in List PR systems
In closed and open list systems elections officials count the votes and award a share of seats to each party that roughly corresponds to the share of the votes that party (or its candidates) received. In a closed list system, the candidates who the party placed highest on it's list are awarded seats in Parliament until the number of seats held by candidates from that party roughly match the share of the popular vote the party received.
In an open list system, the same process applies, but the party list candidates who received the most votes become the first awarded seats in Parliament for their party. Many open list systems are not completely open, so each party's ranking of their own candidates has some influence on which candidates get elected first. Candidates at the top of the list still require support, but require a lower threshold to win than candidates lower on their party's list.
Thresholds in List PR Systems
List PR systems often employ minimum thresholds that each party must meet to receive seats in Parliament.
Two thresholds could be used to win federal seats:
- a party must earn a minimum percentage of votes across the province in question - typically set at between three and five per cent.
- a party must earn a minimum percentage of votes in a multi-member district - typically set between 10 and 12 per cent.
Thresholds are generally used to limit the prevalence of extremist views, and the proliferation of an unruly number of small parties.
Mixed-Member Proportional Representation (MMP)
Mixed-member proportional representation (MMP) is the voting system combines elements of FPTP and List PR. It originated in Germany and is still used there, along with New Zealand, Scotland, Wales, and other countries.
The MMP system has several proponents in Canada, including the federal NDP and the Green Party. Voters in PEI recently selected this system in a plebiscite on electoral reform held in 2016.
Casting a ballot in a mixed-member proportional system:
In an MMP system, voters typically cast two votes: one for their preferred local candidate and another for their preferred party. As with List PR, open or closed lists can be used to determine the rank of candidates on the party list.
Two types of districts in a mixed-member proportional system
There are two types of districts in all MMP systems. The local single-member district is standard across all systems. Then, as in List PR, a province can be divided into several large multi-member regional districts as Scotland does, or treat the entire state as one large multi-member district, as New Zealand does. In the MMP map modeled below, we model each province as one large multi-member district.
There are a few ways to move from the present system to an MMP system. The number of single-member-districts could be reduced, and the size of those districts expanded. Or, additional list seats for each province could be added in addition to the existing MPs in parliament. In the electoral map modeled below, we assume the number of single-member-districts would be reduced by half, and half of each province's MPs would come from a list (New Brunswick would have five list and five district MPs, BC would have 21 list and 21 district MPs, and Quebec would have 39 of each type of MP).
Counting Votes in a mixed-member proportional system
First: the votes cast for all local, single-member districts are counted to determine the winners using the FPTP method. The candidate with more votes than any other candidate is elected.
Next: the party votes are counted and list seats are awarded to 'top-up' parties that earned a larger share of party votes than their share of local seats won. This ensures that the total seat count for each party is as proportional as possible to their share of the party vote.
Thresholds in a mixed-member proportional system
As in List PR, an MMP system may employ a minimum threshold of the popular vote that each party must earn in order to receive seats in parliament. An additional threshold that may be used in MMP systems is reached when a party wins a pre-set number of local district elections. For instance, if the popular vote threshold were set to ve per cent, and the district threshold were set to one district seat, a party that had earned one district seat, but only four per cent of the popular vote across a province, would be awarded roughly four per cent of that province's seats in parliament for having reached one of the thresholds.
The Single Transferable Vote (STV) System
The single transferable vote (STV) is a system for electing representatives to multi-member districts using a preferential ballot. This system is used in Ireland, Malta, the Australian Senate, and in many municipal and organizational elections (for governing boards and councils) worldwide.
The STV system has not had strong political support within mainstream politics, but remains a popular choice amongst fair-voting advocates across the country. In 2004, the Citizens Assembly on Electoral Reform in British Columbia recommended a type of STV to BC voters.
The STV system is unique compared to the other proportional systems presented here as it is not dependent on the presence of political parties in order to function.
Casting votes in the single transferable vote system
In an STV voting system the voters rank candidates in order of preference. Because the election is for a multi-member district, the number of candidates is typically quite large, with each party running multiple candidates in each district.
Districts: In the STV system, a state is divided into several multi-member districts. For example, in Australia, each of the country's six states is its own district, with 12 senators elected from each.
Thresholds and vote-counting in the single transferable vote system
The first step in determining the winners in an STV election is to calculate the winning threshold, known as a quota, which is the number of votes a candidate must receive in order to win.
The quota is calculated based on the number of seats available and the number of valid votes cast. It is typically the lowest number of votes that only the winning number of candidates can receive.
Once a quota is established, the first preference on each ballot is counted and all candidates who meet the quota are declared elected. Then, if the total number of seats available is not filled on a first count, counting proceeds to a second round. The surplus votes received by winning candidates in the previous round (votes in excess of the quota) are then 'transferred' to the next preference choice marked on the ballots added to the totals of the remaining candidates.
If no candidates exceed the quota using the surplus votes in a single round, the candidate with the fewest votes is eliminated, and the second preference on those ballots are added to the tallies of each of the remaining candidates. This process continues until all seats are filled.
Here's a video from the Scottish electoral commission explaining how the quota and counting process works for their council elections, which run using STV.
Summary: voting system alternatives for Canada
There are two families of voting systems. Winner-take-all systems include first-past-the-post and the alternative vote, where each district has a single MP. The three proportional voting systems modeled here use some form of multi-member district to ensure more proportional results, where the share of votes cast for each party's candidates closely matches the share of seats that party's MPs hold in parliament. In proportional systems, thresholds come into play. In MMP and List PR, those thresholds are decided in advance, and determine how much overall support a party needs before it's candidates are awarded seats in parliament. In STV, the threshold is determined by a calculation based on the number of seats available and the number of votes cast.
The Charter Challenge for Fair Voting will argue that only a proportional representation voting system can adequately the right to 'effective representation' that is guaranteed by section three of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

Pinellas Park Upsets Osceola Behind Two-Run Home Run
Written by Staff on April 8th, 2016
The Pinellas Park Patriots traveled the short distance to face the Osceola Warriors Thursday night. The Patriots came in as the underdog against the Warriors, who rank as the #15 team in the Tampa Bay Power Rankings, but a two-run home run from Kenny Brush propelled the Patriots to a 2-1 victory.
The Patriots jumped out to the early lead in the top of the first inning. Kenny Brush came to the plate with one on and two outs and sent the first pitch he saw over the center field wall for a two-run home run. Brett Shavers came around to score from first to give the Patriots the 2-0 lead.
Two runs was all Triston Allen needed as he took to the mound for Pinellas Park (11-10). Allen delivered a great game on the mound, going seven innings, giving up one run on five hits and a walk, while striking out seven. He threw 94 pitches in the victory.
The Warriors (16-6) scored their only run of the game in the bottom of the third inning. After Austin Keene led the inning off with a base hit, he came around to score later in the inning on a sacrifice from Chase Achuff. Keene added another base hit in the fifth but that was all for the Warriors offense on the night.
Jeremy Adams started the game for the Warriors and was very strong over five innings. After allowing the two-run shot to Brush in the first, he settled down nicely to strike out nine batters and walk none. Corey Iverson threw 23 pitches over the final two innings, allowing no runs and no hits and striking out four.

Q: Why do I get empty array in ngOnInit after calling a method? getHistory(gaaNum): void {

this.loading = true;
this.gaaHistoryService.getHistory(gaaNum)
  .subscribe(atmHistory => {
    // I am more sure that real data gets assigned here!!!
    this.allChartData = atmHistory; // allChartData has a size of 152
    this.loading = false;
  }, err => {
    this.loading = false;
    this.errorMsg = err;
    console.log(`error: ${err}`);
  });
}

and yet, the allChartData public variable is empty here:
    ngOnInit() {
    this.allChartData = [];
    this.amount= [];
    this.fillSum = [];
    this.barChartData = [];

    this.getHistory(this.gaaNumber);

    console.log(this.allChartData.length);  // this is zero, allChartdata is empty here. Why?

  }

How can I get the data outside of scope of 'subscribe'?

A: JavaScript is asynchronous, so when you write
this.getHistory(this.gaaNumber);
console.log(this.allChartData.length);

getHistory() is called - and before it has time to finish, you are already calling console.log(this.allChartData.length) which will consequently print out 0.
If you instead write something like
  ...
  this.gaaHistoryService.getHistory(gaaNum)
  .subscribe(atmHistory => {
    // I am more sure that real data gets assigned here!!!
    this.allChartData = atmHistory; // allChartData has a size of 152
    console.log(this.allChartData.length);
    this.loading = false;
  },
  ...

you will get the number you're looking for.

A: If you want to be able to log it in your ngOnInit, you'll have to make your getHistory method into an observable. You can do this by piping into a map and catchError instead of subscribing, and return the result as follows:
getHistory(gaaNum): void {

    this.loading = true;
    return this.gaaHistoryService.getHistory(gaaNum)
      .pipe(map(atmHistory => {
        this.allChartData = atmHistory;
        this.loading = false;
      }), catchError(err => {
        this.loading = false;
        this.errorMsg = err;
        console.log(`error: ${err}`);
      }));
}

Now, in your ngOnInit, you can subscribe to getHistory and do whatever you want.
ngOnInit() {
    this.allChartData = [];
    this.amount= [];
    this.fillSum = [];
    this.barChartData = [];

    this.getHistory(this.gaaNumber).subscribe(_ => {
        console.log(this.allChartData.length);
    });
}

She opts for a flowy floral dress with a long trail to showcase Giambattista Valli for the ramp walk at L'Oreal Paris fashion week. This look of Miss World is going viral everywhere. She was with her little munchkin, Aaradhya, she posed with her daughter, and with other stars in the star-studded event. She is not in a lot of movies right now, but her comeback through the L'Oreal being a brand ambassador is exceptional.

Lastly, the dramatic makeup can't go unnoticed. Glittery blue and purple eyeshadow, coupled with a bold red lip color make a style statement. The puffed-up hairstyle suits the flower dress. The exaggerated tail makes it more adorable anyhow. Shiny makeup with frock dress is really not working for some, but it would look so wondrous no one had that idea.

Other stars in the runway were Camila Cabello, Eva Longoria, Geri "Ginger Spice" Horner, Andie MacDowell and more. Paris, the fashion hub proves to be the best when it comes to fashion shows. Cabello sets the fire with just a blazer and no undershirt. Eva was in all black with a turtle neck, and others also rocked different styles.

Q: How to customize the mouse cursor when over a specific X11 window? My main system has 1080p displays but I often connect to a 4K laptop via VNC under Remmina. When connected and the mouse pointer is over the Remmina window, the cursor expands in size by a factor of 4 and looks huge.
Is there some way to customize the appearance of the cursor when over the Remmina window, even if that means losing the contextual visual cues for the current mouse position (text, links, etc)?  Essentially, when the mouse cursor is over the Remmina window, the idea was:

*

*to shrink the cursor to its normal size

*failing the above, to forcefully set a mouse cursor

Is this possible at all?

Home News Breaking News Mengele's Journal Bought By Holocaust Survivor's Grandson
Mengele's Journal Bought By Holocaust Survivor's Grandson
An auctioneer of historic documents said Tuesday that he had sold a journal written by Dr. Josef Mengele, the Nazi Holocaust's "Angel of Death," to the grandson of an Auschwitz survivor, the Hartford Courant reported.
According to the report, Bill Panagopulos of Alexander Autographs wrote in an e-mail that he had sold the 180-page journal for an undisclosed sum Tuesday "to an East Coast Jewish philanthropist who wishes to remain anonymous."
"He is the grandson of an Auschwitz survivor who personally encountered Mengele at Auschwitz," Panagopulos wrote. "He intends to donate the manuscript to a museum devoted to the Holocaust."
Dated June 1960, when the death camp doctor was in South America, the handwritten entries range from descriptions of native animals and plants to blunt statements on the need to sterilize people with "deficient genes."
"The real problem is to define when human life is worth living and when it has to be eradicated," Mengele reportedly wrote.
The Hartford Courant said some Jewish and Holocaust survivor organizations called the sale of such a document disgraceful.
The newspaper, based in Stamford, Connecticut said the American Gathering of Jewish Holocaust Survivors and Their Descendants labeled the auction house offering "a cynical act of exploitation aimed at profiting from the writings of one of the most heinous Nazi criminals."
"I personally believe that these things should not be sold or publicized," Betty Ehrenberg, executive director of the New York City-based World Jewish Congress, was quoted by the Courant as saying Tuesday. "It unfortunately adds a glory or a glamour to these people and encourages people with right-wing sympathies to admire them."
Panagopulos said that he was sickened by the journal, but that it has historic value. If no money can be made from such documents, he said, many would be lost. "If it has no value, people throw it in the garbage," he said.
'Manuscript is going where it belongs'
According to the report, Panagopulos said the bound notebook is mostly Mengele's philosophical meanderings about topics such as genetic purity and the staining of superior bloodlines by "morons" and "idiots".
The SS physician, born in 1911, went to the Auschwitz-Birkenau death camp in April 1943. He was among the medical officers who divided arriving inmates into two groups: slave laborers and those immediately sent to the gas chambers.
Mengele also experimented with human subjects at the camp.
After the war, Mengele spent a few years working on a farm in Bavaria, then fled to South America, where he lived in Argentina, Paraguay and Brazil. He died in 1979.
Asked for an opinion on the authenticity of the notebook held by the Stamford auction house, the Washington, D.C., Holocaust museum released a statement Tuesday saying that the institution "does not know if the diary, purportedly a post-war work, is authentic. There is a history of forgeries and alleged 'diaries' by Nazis."
"Whatever its origins," the statement continues, "nothing can hide Mengele's real legacy as a perpetrator in the brutal murder of more than one million Jews at Auschwitz-Birkenau and the unspeakable cruelty he inflicted upon the victims of his 'medical experiments.'"
Panagopulos told the The Hartford Courant that the provenance of the Mengele journal is solid, and that the handwriting matches the Nazi doctor's known writing. He would not name the owner. He said he has pledged a portion of the sale proceeds to the museum.
"I am overjoyed," Panagopulos told the newspaper, "that the manuscript is going where it belongs, where it will be available to historians and scholars."

By UnhappyGOLD'SGYMmember from Miami on February 08, 2009.
Consumers with a voice- no longer take it- Letter to corporate-DO NOT JOIN GOLD GYM.
I am writing this article to give a serious complaint about GOLDS GYM SOUTH BEACH. I was a proud member of the Gold's Gym South Beach branch, but one year ago I suddenly moved out of state. Realizing I was no longer going to need the membership, I attempted to cancel. When I called to cancel I was told the cancellation method was to send an email with my information, so I did. I sent one email on January 28, 2008 expressing my desire to cancel my and my wife's membership. When I called the gym I was told it would be best to send out 2 emails for the gym's filing purpose, as long as the information was on both email. So, on January 31, 2008, I sent out the same email, complete with my and my wife's full name and expressed desire to cancel our contract.
On January of 2009 I received a letter from a collection agency informing me I owed money on a Gold's Gym Membership. This was a total shock because I was sure I sent out the email last year. I proceeded to contact the gym to find out how something like this could happen. I was passed on to person named Christina who at the time informed me no email was found by the gym and that she handled the accounts, so she kept very good records of all her emails. She then informed me that if I had really sent out the email I would have saved it. But I change computers every few months so I thought it impossible to find the email. After this frustrating conversation I contacted my lawyer who reminded me all the emails sent from my server are saved. So I contacted my hosting company who was more than happy to provide the emails.
Now I want my money back, all the money wrongfully charged on my credit card for a membership someone at the gym did not cancel. Plus, for the gym to contact the collection agency before they ruin my credit any further. It is not fair I would be charged or penalized for a membership I canceled last year.
Golds Gym is located at 1400 Alton Road.
UnhappyGOLD'SGYMmember does not recommend this business.
I am going through the SAME thing right now. I don't know what to do. I joined Gold's gym 1.5 years ago. I was also dealing with the very rude Christina. I was informed verbally that I had 30 days to cancel. On day 29, I called and e-mailed to cancel. They said okay. However, I was being billed in the following month. I was never given a contract, because the guy who signed me up told me their printers were broken and he would mail it to me. When I called to complain, I was informed that I was mistaken, because I was only given THREE days to cancel. I would have never signed up because I am asthmatic and just wanted to see how it was. I used the gym once or twice in that month, and decided to cancel. So, I asked them to send my contract. They never did. I asked my doctor to write a letter, he did, they said it wasn't sufficient. They proceeded to harass me with how they have many asthmatics, and that is not basis for cancelling my contract. I then moved back to Cleveland from Miami, where there is no gym. I called the manager and told her to send me my contract and a copy to my lawyer, she freaked out and said this wasn't necessary, all I had to do was send my licence with two bills from Cleveland. I did this with a certified letter. I got a signed receipt back. I called to confirm, and she never got back to me so I figured everything was taken care of. This was November 2008. Last week, I got a call from collections asking for $2000!!! These are all LATE fees, since my membership was no longer valid, they gave me late fees!!! I used the gym twice, and they are trying to rob me blind. Mind you, I still to this day have not seen ONE copy of my contract!!! I talked to my lawyer friend who told me since collections never sent me a letter, they cannot collect because of the Fair Debt Collections Act. I don't know what to do, I cannot allow myself to pay LATE FEES for an unjust contract I was never able to see.
> my focus and my energy in a positive direction.
> experiences while associating with and/or attending this facility.
> continuous tension, distrust and a toxic vibe which was never here before.
> one of the highlights of my day.
> the future, but unfortunately I have decided it is time for me to move on.

Home News Awards Inkwell Award winners announced
Inkwell Award winners announced
The winners of the Inkwell Awards, honoring the best in inking, have been announced. According to the PR:
This year saw the voting process refined, streamlined and no longer career retrospective in theme (except for the Hall of Fame). New categories were added and redundant ones removed. Instead of an open ballot, ala 2008, this year has seen a collection of nominators consisting of notable industry experts, journalists and professionals alike who have elected to vote for artists in those categories. The nominators will elect the artists they believe fit the categories, the committee will validate those choices, and voting will then be open for the general public. The overall winners will be those artists with the most votes at the end of the process. A full list of the nominators can be found at the Inkwell Awards web-site (http://www.inkwellawards.com/friends.html). The nominators will be a rotating list, changing from year to year, to ensure diversity and fairness in both the nominating and voting process.

And it's a reasonably good rationalization for why a document-breaking government shutdown has put 380,000 government staff on furlough and made 420,000 work without pay. Trump's shutdown disabling the whole nation, sea to shining sea, to save lots of the president's vainness, proper? Stealing from the stricken in Puerto Rico or from flood control efforts in Houston can be value it too.

This year as I reflect on 4 terms of amazing learning within my school here in Singapore I asked the students about their highlights. Using twitter in the classroom was one of those.
This year we trialled the use of Twitter as a tool to support student learning in the classroom. One major impact was its use in the development of a new modern learning environment that is currently being implemented ready for the 2015 school year.
All in all this was an incredible experience that I highly recommend to all educators. WIth the support of my school and utilising the excellent digital citizenship skills of my students we were able to master Social Media use. Bring on 2015 and the successful use of social media to support a more diverse range of learning.
What GREAT student feedback! My students will be wrapping up our PBL next week….Twitter would have been a great resource for their research!
1. Do parents give permission for use?
2. Is one account used…Id assume we could create a class Twitter account?
3. Whats rhe minimum ratio of student : technology to facilitate using social media in the classroom?
4. It sounds like the students themselves accessed their info via Twitter….or did the teacher access it FOR students in a whole group or small froup setting?
I'm sure I will have more questions! Thank you for taking the time to consider them!
Kia Ora this is so inspiring and gives me ammunition, inspiration to continue to think about pushing ahead with safely connecting students. Teach in an Australian school which has been 1:1 for several years, rolling out iPads this year to yr 7s. Despite this there is huge resistance to safe use if BYOD, use of social media, promoting research. The 1:1 rollout is almost just a replacement for the Computer Labs. Oh we could not use the cloud. No the students could not do xxxxx as I say this so inspiring. Loved that the students safely covers their faces.
I teach Twitter in my high school digital communications class, but have never had the students as excited as yours seem to be. I am obviously leaving out some element that attracts. I introduce the app as a tool for developing a personal learning network, encouraging them to find entities to follow that could offer insights/articles in an area the students are interested in. If the student is considering exploring a career in engineering, they should seek Twitter accounts for engineering publications and schools with good programs. If design is something they are into, find people/publications/schools with good design info to share. Likewise with anything medical or automotive or even Anime, gaming or art. My hope is that this will help them collect and archive information for passion projects they will embark on soon thereafter. Only a few students in each class end up utilizing Twitter in this way.
I'd be interested in seeing how you introduced Twitter and how your class uses it. Could you share your lesson?
Loved your post and the passion and enthusiasm that comes through! Thank you.
I am very interested in developing my own skills and knowledge through doc media (totally loving Twitter (@CMCinSwitz), but am really just a beginner!) thanks for the ideas and inspiration.
