Belfast: Moving in the Right Direction?
A lunchtime presentation and discussion during the implementation of the Department for Regional Development's £3.5m Belfast on the Move Transport Masterplan - a project intended to deliver improved priority for buses, pedestrians and cyclists and eventually allow for a Belfast Rapid Transit system. PLACE posed the question - is it moving Belfast in the right direction? DRD's Ciaran De Burca outlined the objectives and merits of the project and took questions from those in attendance.
Connecting Territories is an exhibition by McGarry Moon Architects illustrating the works of ten innovative architecture practices from across the UK and Ireland exploring the essence of dwelling. At this discussion former PLACE Director Aidan McGrath led a discussion of the projects on display.
Architect Ciaran Mackel explored the urban literature that shapes the local built environment and influences his work.
Architect and Artist Marcus Patton explored the urban literature that shapes the local built environment and influences his work.
During the 50th Belfast Festival at Queen's PLACE explored the area around Queen's University, Botanic, Lisburn Road, Malone and Stranmillis through our 'Queen's Quarter: An Urban Walk' tour.
We also provided two special tours exploring the architecture, spaces and stories from 50 years of the Belfast Festival at Queen's (PLACE Festival 50 Tour) and a special tour around Queen's University demonstrating how to capture gorgeous, interesting photographs of architecture (Queen's Quarter: A Photographic Journey).
out of PLACE returned at North Street during Culture Night offering creative people an opportunity to perform and run a workshops. We sought to demonstrate alternative uses for town centres and highlight the positive impact of culture, arts and creativity for regenerating our urban areas.
During the East Belfast Festival PLACE led a walking tour exploring the local architecture - from vertical gardens on the Newtownards Road to the Art Deco Strand cinema, the church where C.S Lewis was baptised and the Titanic Quarter.
To kick off the 2012 European Heritage Open Days weekend, PLACE hosted a free lunchtime event at which local experts discussed the legacy of modern architecture in Ulster and considered what new architecture is on the horizon.
In the past few years, new high-profile public buildings have opened in Northern Ireland: The Lyric (O'Donnell & Tuomey), The MAC (Hackett Hall McKnight) and the Giant's Causeway Visitor Centre (Heneghan Peng). Are they indicative of a renaissance in contemporary Ulster Architecture, or if not, what obstacles are there between us and a better contemporary architecture in Ulster?
Speakers included Barrie Todd, Ciaran Mackel, Sarah Lappin, Alastair Hall and Mark Hackett.
PLACE was delighted to be participating in the European Heritage Open Days again in 2012. PLACE invited Barrie Todd, Architect and former RSUA President, to curate a list of notable modern buildings which opened their doors to the public around Northern Ireland.
"Good architecture does not stop at the front door", says Barrie Todd, guest curator for PLACE. "Some would have it that an architect produces the exterior of a building, leaving interiors to other disciplines. But good architecture does not stop at the front door - it continues to address all aspects in a holistic manner."
PLACE opened Robinsview House in Saintfield, The Lyric Theatre and the MAC in Belfast, Culturlann in Derry and the University of Ulster York Street Campus and the Public Records Office buildings in Belfast. We also facilitated a guided walk of Victoria Square looking at the urban design of the scheme and a guided tour of the Giant's Causeway Visitor Centre with the project architects.
The book, Machine for Experiential Urban Learning (MEUL), edited by Saul Golden and Liam McComish, and published with PLACE, presents the combined original output of the Urban Research Belfast project so far, through creative mechanisms for teaching, learning and investigating about place in existing urban environments.
MEUL and URB emphasize the value of getting lost, or at least moving outside of personal and professional comfort zones, and questioning negative preconceptions about marginal areas of existing cities. These approaches to the teaching and working in existing cities ask designers to become more than transitory flâneurs, to explore with more purpose, and to become more attuned to implicit and explicit local narratives.
An Ormeau Road inspired workshop and treasure hunt for kids aged 6-10 as part of the Household Festival 2012.
Rosie Hickey led this architectural tour celebrating the small scale, the local and the familiar. The tour focused on an area absent on most walking tours and highlighted domestic architecture and the local streetscape. Wandering through streets often overlooked through sheer familiarity, the tour celebrated architectural detail and design, uncovered the history of the Ormeau, and charted the evolution of the area.
To accompany an exhibition called Settlement by Anthony Haughey, PLACE and Belfast Exposed teamed up to present a panel discussion which drew comparisons between policies and patterns of urban development in the North and the South of Ireland in recent years, particularly in the contexts of Belfast and Dublin.
Speakers included Aidan McGrath, PLACE, Paschal Mahoney, Mahony Architects, Mark Hackett, Forum for Alternative Belfast and James Hayes, University College Dublin.
PLACE were delighted to be working with the Belfast Film Festival to bring architecture and urban design films to the city: two highly acclaimed films from 2011, and one classic from 1988.
For eleven days during the Cathedral Quarter Arts Festival 'The Open Source' occupied the vacant ground floor of the impressive Art Deco Sinclair House. The project provided around 80 hours of performance, music, workshops, and more. Open Source demonstrated how culture and the arts can bring life to an empty space in Belfast city centre. This project was managed by PLACE, somewhereto_ and Seed Head Arts.
This lunchtime talk by Alona Martinez-Perez (Architect and Lecturer in Urbanism at University of Ulster) explored recent examples of her research work looking at Spanish architecture.
Share Your Vision is the platform for students of architecture, urban design, planning and related disciplines to share their ideas and discuss topics of interest.
At the second event in the series Architect Aidan McGrath was guest speaker as the group discussed issues including, the University of Ulster's Belfast campus, improving cycling in Belfast and architecture as a profession and its viability.
PLACEwinterschool was an intensive week long event facilitated by Forum for Alternative Belfast focusing on the area and on current and proposed urban projects around the 'Cultural Corridor'. The Corridor extends from the Cathedral Quarter at Donegall Street, up Clifton Street and on to the Crumlin Road Courthouse and Jail and the Carnegie Library on the Oldpark Road.
Findings and recommendations from the PLACEwinterschool were published in the Forum for Alternative Belfast's Coordinate and Connect publication.
PLACE hosted a workshop with artist-designer duo Seainin and David for children aged 9-11. The workshop explored art in public spaces: sculpture, designing artwork into the public realm and temporary artworks and allowed children to create their own temporary artwork in a public space!
A child's favourite toy is a cardboard box - imagine an entire city made from them! That's exactly what we facilitated using freestanding pieces built from cardboard and allowing visitors of all ages to add their own extra features. This unique installation piece was created by artists Caragh O'Donnell and Ryan O'Reilly.
The skyline of Belfast is changing and as Belfast approached the 100th anniversary of the launch and sinking of the Titanic PLACE offered people the chance to find out about the impact the new Titanic Quarter will have on the city.
We asked Mike Smith, then Chief Executive of Titanic Quarter, to survey the new docklands of Belfast and what they mean for the city, the economy, inhabitants and visitors.
"One's destination is never a place, but rather a new way of looking at things." - Henry Miller.
Architects, planners, students and enthusiasts gathered at the Black Box to share their passion for the sights they've seen around the world.

Miranda Popkey on Why Male Rage Is So… Popular
The Author of Topics of Conversation With Maris Kreizman
By The Maris Review
This week on The Maris Review, Miranda Popkey joins Maris Kreizman to discuss her new book, Topics of Conversation.
On why male rage is popular:
Miranda Popkey: I do think male rage is a subject of much interest in popular culture.
Maris Kreizman: We are talking the day that the Joker swept all the Oscar nominations.
Miranda Popkey: [laughs] The thing that popular culture is interested in, it's only natural that someone absorbing that culture uncritically would find that to be of interest in their own romantic life. That was one thing my narrator is attracted to, this idea that she might be able to give herself over to male violence or male control. That is the sort of romantic paradigm that we have been presented with, at least in terms of popular heterosexual culture. It's also hard to be a person in the world. That's always been true, and that's really true right now.
On mimicking the way the mind works:
Miranda Popkey: As one reader on Goodreads noticed, many of my sentences are run-on sentences. I did want to give my narrator a voice that would allow the reader to enter the space of her mind, as fully as possible. I don't know about your mind or your listeners' minds, but mine doesn't operate in complete sentences and neat paragraphs.
Maris Kreizman: It wonders and fixates on things.
Miranda Popkey: You don't want to recreate that exactly because that would be a true nightmare to read, but I did want her to have a voice that was distinctive and also, to a certain extent without making it unreadable, mimicking the particular way her mind churns. Her mind does a lot of churning.
On how it's impossible to tell an original story:
Miranda Popkey: I think like a lot of people who hold themselves to unreasonable standards, my narrator never wants to experience a feeling that anyone else has experienced. She wants her story to be different and fresh, and she is frustrated with herself when, for example, she has an affair with a professor. It's a cliché. It's very difficult to construct a very new story. It is impossible to imagine how one would do so; you're always building from the cultural artefacts around you or are important to you and you have absorbed. She is in this bind that she really wants to be in a story that is only hers, but she is filled with desires, ideas, and expectations she has inherited, and that's a real struggle for her. The desire to evade cliché sort of binds with her deeper desire to follow these scripts that she's been handed.
Miranda Popkey has written for The New Republic, The New Yorker's Page-Turner blog, the Paris Review Daily, The Hairpin, The Awl, GQ, and New York magazine's The Cut. Her debut novel is called Topics of Conversation.

Today: The Beatles played the Rooftop concert, Apple building 30 Jan 1969
January 30, 2013 Hallgeir	7 Comments
"I'd like to say thank you on behalf of the group and ourselves, and I hope we passed the audition" – John Lennon
Trying to come up with a conclusion for the film, Let it be, it was suggested that the band play an unannounced lunchtime concert on the roof of the Apple building. On 30 January, The Beatles with Preston played on the rooftop in the cold wind for 42 minutes, about half of which ended up in the film.
The songs performed in the Rooftop concert, Apple building:
Get Back (5 versions)
I Want You (She's So Heavy)
Don't Let Me Down (2 versions)
Danny Boy (in between the main songs)
Dig A Pony (2 versions)
God Save The Queen (incompl.)
A Pretty Girl Is Like A Melody (between main songs)
The Concert:
The Beatles started with a rehearsal of "Get Back," then played the five songs which are shown in the film. After repeating "I've Got a Feeling" and "Don't Let Me Down," takes which were left out of the film, the Beatles are shown in the film closing with another pass at "Get Back" as the police arrive to shut down the show. (Wikipedia)
The songs were used as a whole or in parts on the album, in the film and later on Anthology 3 and on the re-release/reworking of Let it be, Let it be…naked.
The Apple building concert was the first live gig since The Beatles stopped touring 29. August 1966 (tired of screaming girls and not beeing able to hear themselves through the screams) and it was to be their last. It's a fantastic show, sweet and short, really makes us long for more. It gives us a glimpse of what could have been, and it shows us what a magnificent live band they were.
"We went on the roof in order to resolve the live concert idea, because it was much simpler than going anywhere else; also nobody had ever done that, so it would be interesting to see what happened when we started playing up there. It was a nice little social study.
We set up a camera in the Apple reception area, behind a window so nobody could see it, and we filmed people coming in. The police and everybody came in saying, 'You can't do that! You've got to stop.'" – George Harrison (Anthology)
Whatever animosity there was between the four guys it doesn't show, it looks like they have the time of their life, it is a magnificent live farewell.
It is also one of the most bootlegged shows in rock'n roll history, both on audio and film.
Let's hope for an official Let it Be Blu-Ray release, maybe with the rooftop concert as a separate extra feature (with all available footage).

Today: Bruce Springsteen played Winterland Ballroom, San Francisco in 1978 – 34 years ago
December 15, 2012 Egil	1 Comment
Bruce's Winterland-78 concert is by many fans & "concert tape collectors" regarded as one of his best shows ever… It is indeed a cornerstone in any collection of concert bootlegs (regardless of artist). Number 2 on my list of the best Springsteen's concerts I've collected (and.. yes, I've got a decent collection).
Here is a BRILLIANT – Prove It All Night:
Racing In The Street:
FM Broadcast (KSAN radio) and soundboard tapes – this is a master reel recording and includes three tracks not broadcast. What can you say! The versions of "The Promised Land" and "Prove It All Night" are exceptional and "Backstreets" is better than that. Probably the most famous show Bruce will ever do. It should be noted that the source tape appears to run slightly slow. Released on CD 'Live At Winterland' (Golden Stars), 'Live In The Promised Land' (Great Dane Records), 'Winterland Night' (Crystal Cat) and most recently (and in best quality) on CDR 'Prodigal Son at Winterland – 25th Anniversary Remaster' (Prodigal Son). This is a remaster of 'Winterland Night'.

James Brown – Live at the Apollo was recorded 50 years ago today
October 24, 2012 Hallgeir	1 Comment
"When I'm on stage, I'm trying to do one thing: bring people joy. Just like church does. People don't go to church to find trouble, they go there to lose it."
"Our whole thing was based on James Brown. We listened to Live at the Apollo endlessly on acid. We would listen to that in the van in the early days of 8-tracks on the way to the gigs to get us up for the gig. If you played in a band in Detroit in the days before The MC5, everybody did 'Please, Please, Please' and 'I Go Crazy.' These were standards. We modeled The MC5's performance on those records. Everything we did was on a gut level about sweat and energy. It was anti-refinement. That's what we were consciously going for."

One of the best live albums in music history, James Brown – Live at the Apollo was recorded on this day 50 years ago.
My favourite moment: The whole horn infused "Think" that borrows heavily from jazz legend Charlie Parker in the way Brown scats over the band with the crowd participating enthusiastically. Not remotely like the studioversions and terribly good!

The format is very simple to understand and complete documentation is available on sitemaps.org. There is a root urlset element which contains multiple url elements. Each of these url elements must contain the loc element which specifies the location of that URL. It can optionally contain lastmod, the date and time at which the page was last modified, changefreq, how often you expect the page to change and priority, the priority of that page compared to others on your website.
Rails makes it very easy to generate your own sitemap.xml file dynamically. The sitemap can be implemented using a simple controller to generate a list of pages and a view that use Builder to generate the XML output.
This route simply routes GET requests for sitemap.xml, to the SitemapController's show method. You do not need to worry about specifying .xml in the route, Rails will automatically figure it out and include the correct view.
The next step is to create the controller in the app/controllers/sitemap_controller.rb file. This needs to fetch information about all of your pages from the database or disk or wherever you are storing them, so the code will vary. In this example I'll pretend that I've got a Photo model and a page for each photo, along with a Link model used by a single page of links.
This is fairly simple code that should be easily understood by anyone with a basic understanding of ActiveRecord.
The final part is to create a view called app/views/sitemap/show.xml.builder. The name signifies that this is a view for the XML format (as I said earlier, Rails uses this to automatically detect the view to use) using Builder as a template engine.
Builder uses a domain-specific language implemented on top of Ruby to allow you to easily create XML documents.
# nest tags here, can include ruby code to do loops, etc.
#         is very different to how you'd write a normal tag!
We're almost done now. First I'd fire up WEBrick and test to see if it works fine and fix any issues. The last step is to create or modify your robots.txt file to specify the location of the sitemap.xml file.
If you're running a small site then you probably don't need to worry about this. However, on a large site each request to your sitemap could end up pulling a large amount of data from your database so you may wish to cache it to speed things up.
This will make Rails save the page to the disk when it is generated, so Rails isn't even involved when a client requests the page for the second time.
You might also want to look into sweepers to avoid copying and pasting that snippet of code around everywhere in a complex application, but if you're just running a simple blog or personal site the code above will probably be sufficient.
Once you've done, you'll probably want to submit your sitemap to search engines. Generally this happens automatically, but some of them provide tools to see how often they look at your sitemap or if there are any problems with it.
For Google, you can do this with the webmaster tools. The official sitemaps website also has more information about this.

LISBON, Portugal (AP) — Portuguese authorities say four people have died when a helicopter in the country's medical emergency service crashed.
Portugal's National Institute of Medical Emergencies says Sunday that the helicopter went down Saturday in the Serra de Pias hills east of Porto while it was returning to base after transporting a patient. The two pilots, a doctor and a nurse died in the crash.
The service did not reveal the identities of the four victims. Spanish media reported that the doctor was a Spaniard.

Films with opening credits
Re-Release films
9 to 5 (styled in the opening credits as Nine to Five) is a 1980 American comedy film directed by Colin Higgins, written by Higgins
and Patricia Resnick. It stars Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin, Dolly Parton as three working women who live out their fantasies of getting even with, and their overthrow of, the company's autocratic, "sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot" boss, played by Dabney Coleman.
The film grossed over $103.9 million[2] and is the 20th highest-grossing comedy film.[3] As a star vehicle for Parton—already established as a successful singer and songwriter—it launched her permanently into mainstream popular culture. Although a television series of the same name based on the film was less successful, a musical version of the film (also titled 9 to 5), with new songs written by Parton, opened on Broadway on April 30, 2009.
9 to 5 is number 74 on the American Film Institute's "100 Funniest Movies"[4] and has an 82% approval rating on review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes.[5]
Judy Bernly (Jane Fonda) is forced to find work after her husband, Dick (Lawrence Pressman), runs off with his secretary. Judy finds employment as a secretary at Consolidated Companies. The senior office supervisor, Violet Newstead (Lily Tomlin), introduces Judy to the company and staff, including mail room clerk Eddie, alcoholic Margaret Foster, the opportunistic boss Franklin Hart, Jr. (Dabney Coleman), and Roz Keith (Elizabeth Wilson), Hart's executive assistant. Violet reveals to Judy that Hart is supposedly involved with his buxom secretary, Doralee Rhodes (Dolly Parton). Hart exploits and mistreats his female subordinates, with backstabbing and sexist remarks. He takes credit for Violet's ideas, cruelly yells at and threatens Judy on her first day after an equipment malfunction and sexually harasses Doralee, spreading rumors about an affair that never happened.
When Violet discovers that a promotion she was hoping to receive was instead given to a man because of sexist hiring practices, she confronts Hart about it, as well as the rumors about Doralee (who enters Hart's office just in time to hear, and now realizes why she has become unpopular with the other secretaries). Violet storms off, stating that she needs a drink. Doralee takes Hart to task over his transgressions, informing him that she keeps a gun in her purse and will "turn him from a rooster to a hen with one shot" if his sexist behavior continues. She then also leaves, stating that she needs a drink.
Judy, upset over the firing of Maria, a dedicated employee (due to an infraction overheard by Roz, who had been eavesdropping in the ladies' room), joins Violet and Doralee in storming out of the office, and the three women drown their sorrows at the local bar before retiring to Doralee's house to smoke a joint given to Violet by her teenage son. While there, the beginning of their friendship forms, and they share fantasies of getting revenge on Mr. Hart: Judy wants to hunt him down like an animal in a classic mobster scenario, Doralee wants to rope him like a steer in a Western scenario, and Violet wants to poison him in a twisted Snow White-style scenario.
The following day, a mix-up leads Violet to accidentally spike Hart's coffee with rat poison. However, before he can drink the tainted coffee, Hart falls out of his desk chair and hits his head on the credenza desk, which knocks him out cold. On hearing he has been rushed to the hospital, Violet, thinking he is sick from the accidental poisoning, rushes to the hospital with Judy and Doralee in tow. At the hospital, Hart, who has regained consciousness, leaves on his own without being seen, and the three mistake a dead police witness for their boss, steal the dead body (to prevent an autopsy), stash it in the trunk, and drive off. Soon they discover they've stolen the wrong body, so they smuggle it back into the hospital.
Hart turns up alive the next morning, much to the shock of Violet, Doralee, and Judy. During a break in the ladies' room, the three speculate on what could have happened, but ultimately decide to consider themselves lucky and simply forget the whole matter. However, Roz, hiding in one of the stalls, overhears them and relates the conversation to Hart. He confronts Doralee about the hospital incident and demands that she spend the night at his house, or he'll have all three of them prosecuted for attempted murder.
The three kidnap him and bring him to his Tudor-style mansion, keeping him prisoner in his bedroom while they find a way to blackmail him. The three women discover an embezzlement scheme, and must keep Hart tied up at home while they collect evidence on it.
The women use Hart's absence to effect numerous changes around the office, in his name, including but not limited to: flexible work hours, equal pay for male and female employees, a job-sharing program, and even an onsite daycare center for employees with children. Hart's so hated around the office (by male and female employees alike) that the only person to question his absence is Roz, whom Violet sends away for a multi-week training.
Meanwhile, as Judy is guarding Mr. Hart, her ex-husband, Dick, comes to ask her to take him back. She refuses, forcefully throwing him out. Hart's adoring wife Missy (Marian Mercer) returns from vacation early, putting the women's plan in jeopardy. Hart manages to break free and return the stolen items back to the warehouse. Then he escorts the women to the office at gunpoint. Hart's appalled by the changes which have been made in his absence, but receives an unexpected visit from Russell Tinsworthy (Sterling Hayden), the company chairman, who has come to congratulate Hart for increases in productivity and numerous other initiatives (however he wants theequal pay eliminated). Margaret Foster's no longer an alcoholic, thanks to the company's alcohol rehab program, and Maria's back with the company on a part-time basis and sharing her workload with another employee. Tinsworthy's so impressed that he recruits Hart to work at Consolidated's Brazilian operation for the next few years. Roz returns from her training and is stunned to discover Violet, Judy, and Doralee celebrating in Hart's office.

German Government Launches National Strategy to Combat Rising Antisemitism
by Ben Cohen

Antisemitism in Germany exists "not only on the fringes, but it also at the heart of our society," the country's interior minister warned on Wednesday.
Speaking at the launch of the German government's "National Strategy Against Antisemitism and for Jewish Life" after it was endorsed by the federal cabinet, Interior Minister Nancy Faeser observed that antisemitic conspiracy theories were once again enjoying currency in Germany.
"The antisemitic conspiracy craze gained new momentum during the COVID-19 pandemic," she said.
The 50-page strategy has been published at a time of growing antisemitic violence and rhetoric in Germany. In 2021, antisemitic incidents soared by 30 percent, with more than 3,000 outrages recorded by the German authorities, while this year has witnessed a growing indulgence of antisemitic imagery and rhetoric, ranging from the controversial comments about the Holocaust uttered by Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas during an official visit to the display of virulently antisemitic works at the prestigious Documenta art festival. Additionally, more than 300 antisemitic crimes were recorded in the third quarter of this year, with several acts of violence among them.
The strategy emphasizes five main areas of intervention: data collection, preventive education, boosting Holocaust commemoration, stiffer penalties for antisemitic offenders and overall awareness of Jewish history and culture.
Felix Klein, the top federal official tasked with combating antisemitism, told the launch that the strategy had been approved at a critical period, in the wake of the pandemic and with more recent antisemitic claims circulating concerning the impact of the Russian invasion of Ukraine on Germany's gas supply.
"Antisemitism is one of those supposedly simple answers," Klein remarked. He described antisemitism as a "perceptual structure that provides wrong and dangerous answers to complex social and political phenomena, especially in times of crisis."
Also addressing the launch was the EU's coordinator against antisemitism, Katharina von Schnurbein, who announced the bloc's own strategy to combat Jew-hatred last year.
"Germany has a key role to play in this," von Schnurbein said. "The German strategy will lead to better recognition of and action to combat anti-Semitism in Germany and will also give important impetus internationally."

This campaign was from 1 December 1971 to 29 March 1972.. The U.S. continued to reduce its ground presence in South Vietnam during late 1971 and early 1972, but American air attacks increased while both sides exchanged peace proposals.
In early January 1972 President Nixon confirmed that U.S. troop withdrawals would continue but promised that a force of 25,000-30,000 would remain in Vietnam until all American prisoners of war were released. Secretary of Defense Laird reported that Vietnamization was progressing well and that U.S. troops would not be reintroduced into Vietnam even in a military emergency. U.S. troop strength in Vietnam dropped to 136,500 by 31 January 1972, to 119,600 by 29 February, and then to 95,500 by the end of March.
During the last week of December 1971 U.S. Air Force and Navy planes carried out 1,000 strikes on North Vietnam, the heaviest U.S. air attacks since November 1968. Allied commanders insisted that it was necessary because of a huge buildup of military supplies in North Vietnam for possible offensive operations against South Vietnam and Cambodia. Stepped up North Vietnamese anti-aircraft and missile attacks on U.S. aircraft that bombed the Ho Chi Minh Trail in Laos also contributed to the decision. During January 1972 American planes maintained their intermittent bombardment of missile sites in North Vietnam and on he Laotian border and also struck North Vietnamese troop concentrations in the Central Highlands of South Vietnam.
On 25 January President Nixon announced an eight part program to end the war which included agreement to remove all U.S. and foreign allied troops from Vietnam no later than six months after a peace agreement was reached. The North Vietnamese and Viet Cong delegates rejected the proposal and insisted upon complete withdrawal of all foreign troops from Indochina and cessation of all forms of U.S. aid to South Vietnam.

Laguna Beach sewage smells should simmer down by summer, city officials say
By Faith E. Pinho
Last week, the Laguna Beach City Council approved speeding up the installation of an odor control system at the Bluebird water treatment plant, as residents in Victoria Beach continue to complain about sewage smells in their neighborhood across town.
The Laguna Beach City Council has approved purchasing a new odor control system aimed at reducing the sewage smell emanating from the Glenneyre Dip sewer lift station.
It should reduce foul odors by summertime. Meanwhile, residents on the other side of town are still holding their noses against another long-time stink.
Construction on the roughly $250,000 biological odor control system — called an IBOx — is expected to begin at the Bluebird South Orange County Wastewater Authority lift station in February, said Laguna's director of water quality, David Shissler.
The system cleanses the gaseous air that — much to the dismay of nearby residents — regularly emanates from the sewage pump station and surrounding piping.
"It's amazing how well it works. You really don't smell anything," Shissler said.
Early last year, the city installed the same system at the Laguna SOCWA lift station near the farmers' market — across from the Laguna Playhouse on Broadway Street.
Councilwoman Toni Iseman said in last week's council meeting that before the system was installed, she would often call the city manager to complain about the smell.
"You used to go to the farmers' market and you'd avoid a certain area," she said. "That technology was amazing — I didn't know it could be fixed. And so I'm confident if the same technology is going [in the Glenneyre Dip], we won't have a problem."
The odor control system uses a vacuum suction to draw the smelly gases from the lift station's wastewater holding tank and from underground piping around the area, Shissler said.
The IBOx then carries the gas through a series of shelves, where bugs feed on the gas.
"By the time it gets to the end of that maze … all of that sulfite gas has been eaten by those bugs," he said.
The last step of the system is "polishing," where the air cleaned from the bugs then goes through a carbon filter, to catch any remaining gas.
The project for the Bluebird SOCWA station was approved in November 2017. Last week's unanimous vote allowed the water department to purchase the equipment directly so that construction and installation can begin quickly, Shissler said.
With the Laguna SOCWA station odor control system as a guide, Shissler said the stink around the Glenneyre Dip should be gone about three months after the system is installed.
"In fairness to the people living around the lift station, we really are trying to take advantage of what we were able to do at the Laguna SOCWA station and have it work at this station and really try and reduce those odors," City Manager John Pietig said at the council meeting.
But some residents living down South Coast Highway near Victoria Beach wish the city would do more to address sewage smell problems in other neighborhoods.
Dan Sugg, who lives near the corner of McAulay Place and Coast Highway, said he often catches a whiff of "rotten eggs" when he steps outside in the morning to pick up his newspaper. Like several of his neighbors, he said the smell is worse early in the morning, around 6, and dissipates within a couple hours.
Marsha Bianchi lives across McAulay from the Suggs. She has contacted the city several times over the years about the stench that she said "smells like sewage with a chemical overtone."
"One time this summer it was so bad it actually woke me up," Bianchi said. "I was dreaming about something disgusting, and I woke up, and it was the sewer smell. It's unacceptable. These are really expensive homes, so we shouldn't have to deal with this."
Resident Gary Zoromski said that in the last year, the smell has drifted down to his house at the other end of McAulay Place, on the corner of Victoria Drive. He sometimes smells it in the alley behind his house or on a walk down to the beach.
"That's why I was shocked they wanted to do the stupid underground lines on 133," Zoromski said, referring to ballot Measure P that voters struck down in the November election. It would have raised sales taxes 1% to bury utility lines in Laguna Beach. "Like, the whole sewage system in Laguna is falling apart, and you want to spend $100 and some million on poles?"
Shissler said the problem is not related to either of Victoria Beach's two small lift stations, but with the transmission main that runs nearly six miles down the center of Coast Highway, connecting wastewater from the Bluebird SOCWA lift station to the coastal treatment plant in Aliso Canyon.
Two million gallons of wastewater run through the pipeline's 27-inch diameter every day, he said. At night, the flow slows to nearly a still, and the water becomes stagnant.
"The odors start to build. In the morning, when everyone starts taking their showers and using dishwashers, you get a huge rush of water that has been sitting all night," he said. "And you get this big slug of stinky water that's coming through the system."
The gaseous smells around Victoria Beach rise from a pipe vault near the McAulay Place and South Coast Highway intersection that lets air out from the underground system, Shissler said.
The water quality team has installed two systems there that are intended to prevent the smells — a super oxygenation system to help regulate the flow during the day and a magnesium hydroxide system to settle the gas at night. As with the IBOx, there are also carbon filters placed near manhole covers to stop the gas from releasing above ground.
Roger Butow, a resident of Victoria Drive and founder of the local environmental activist organization Clean Water Now!, said the city is not living up to its promises to overhaul the sewage system.
He cited a federal court case that another nonprofit, California River Watch, filed against the city in the U.S. Central District Court in 2014 and he joined as a plaintiff in 2015. The lawsuit alleged that Laguna Beach had a history of sewage system overflows that damaged the ocean. The two parties settled in 2015, with the city agreeing to continue with the sewage rehabilitation plans outlined in its capital improvement plan and pay CRW's attorney fees.
"The city vowed. They made a compact with their residents: 'We're going to fix this, it's going to be OK,'" Butow said. "It took nearly three years after the litigation was settled for them to even commit to fixing Bluebird. Why did it take you three years to fix what you already knew was broken?"
Several neighbors around Victoria Beach complained that the citywide sewage system is too old.
"The treatment plants … aren't up to snuff," said Marcus Lewis, who grew up in the Victoria Beach neighborhood and now lives on McAulay Place. "They've been having a lot of backups and smells."
Shissler said some of the oldest clay pipes were built in 1929, but a majority of them have been fitted with new plastic pipes, "so they're basically a brand-new pipe within an old pipe."
He said the city has been overhauling the system, and so far 18 of 95 miles of water pipes that the city maintains have been lined with plastic piping. In March 2020, he said, the city plans to gut out and rehabilitate one of the Victoria Beach lift stations, which he said might help with the smell.
"We've worked with them extensively, we've visited them at their homes, we're in communication with them routinely," Shissler said of the Victoria Beach residents. "We're doing as much as can be done with current technologies."


Reward & Reminder, a population-level intervention targeting whole communities, counties, or States, is designed to promote the community norm of not selling tobacco to minors. By using rapid and public rewards and recognition for clerks and retailers/outlets that do not sell tobacco to minors, Reward & Reminder aims to reduce illegal sales of tobacco, perceived access to tobacco, and tobacco use prevalence rates. The intervention emerged from a contextual analysis of factors affecting the behavior of store clerks, retailers, and the tobacco industry overall. At the core of the program is the use of "mystery shoppers," teams of youth who--with parental permission and under the supervision of adults--enter stores and try to buy tobacco products. They provide immediate recognition and rewards, such as gift certificates, to clerks who do the "right thing" and give reminders to those who do not. The results of the mystery shopper visits are entered into a Web-based system where they are made publicly visible, and the results are communicated to local media to promote the positive norm. The mystery shopper visits are scheduled across the year to maximize the immediate and sustained impact.

Neustar Integrates TiVo TV Viewership Data into Multi-Touch Attribution Models
Partnership inked to provide brands with household level TV measurement analysis
April 25, 2019 – STERLING, Va. – Neustar®, Inc., a trusted, neutral provider of real-time information services and the leader in trusted customer identity and marketing analytics solutions for Fortune 500 brands, and TiVo Corporation (NASDAQ: TIVO), a global leader in entertainment technology and audience in-sights, today announced that TiVo's TV viewership data, which reaches across all 210 national designated market areas (DMAs) and millions of households, will now be available in the Neustar Multi-Touch Attribution and Unified Marketing Analytics solutions.
Neustar's collaboration with TiVo adds to the rapidly expanding capability of the company to bring precision to TV measurement for brand advertisers.
"As the world of television is rapidly changing, it's essential that we not only bring transparency to TV measurement but also help to build a different standard for it," said Neustar General Manager and Vice President for Marketing Solutions Michael Schoen. "With TiVo's data, we are able to better provide granular TV insight that enables us to help our clients make better decisions about where to allocate their next marketing dollar."
This next-generation tool for unified marketing measurement sets a new standard in the rapidly changing marketing landscape, ensuring that marketers are maximizing their business results and proving marketing's contribution to revenue at every opportunity.
The inclusion of TiVo's deterministic, TV exposure data from both its own set-top boxes (STB) and third par-ties will allow advertisers to compare the efficacy of both TV and digital investments together to make more insightful budgeting decisions. With this data integration, advertisers now can gain insight into the effective-ness of ad exposures including delayed viewing, along with general audience viewing behavior. Ultimately, advertisers are able to ascertain what drove greater ROI by measuring across networks, daypart, programs and creatives.
Walt Horstman, senior vice president and general manager, Advanced Media and Advertising, TiVo, said, "TiVo's TV viewership data provides partners, like Neustar, with the industry's most authoritative audience dataset that offers marketers with an unparalleled view to power media planning and buying."
The combined partnership will help break down the fragmented view most advertisers struggle with when measuring the efficacy of their media investments, and connect individual TV viewing behavior to cross-device media exposure. For example, an automotive advertiser could analyze whether exposure to a TV commercial resulted in incremental foot traffic to its dealership. In doing so, advertisers will have a much better understanding of their media mix performance and can pinpoint exactly which combinations of TV and digital resulted in the most desired outcome.
The Neustar Marketshare unified marketing analytics solution offers advertisers a guide to strategic and tactical planning decisions, as well as trade-off scenarios for allocations – predictively – across products, markets, segments, tactics and channels. It takes into consideration both the offline marketing tactics and the non-media drivers (e.g., weather, economy, pricing, competitor actions, etc.) to provide a holistic customer view that helps clients examine the true business value of their marketing performance.
Neustar Marketing Solutions leverages customer identity to provide Fortune 500 brands with a unified, persistent and accurate view of their customers, enabling better marketing experiences and superior marketing analytics. More information is available at https://marketing.neustar.

A distinctive new cloud-forest rodent (Hystricognathi: Echimyidae) from the Manu Biosphere Reserve, Peru Mastozool. neotrop.
Patterson,Bruce D.; Velazco,Paul M..
Recent surveys in Peru 's Manu National Park and Biosphere Reserve uncovered a new species of hystricognath rodent, a spiny rat (Echimyidae) with dense, soft fur. Inhabiting Andean cloud-forests at 1900 m, the new rodent belongs to a radiation of "brush-tailed tree rats" previously known only from the Amazon, Orinoco, and other lowland river drainages. Phylogenetic analysis of morphology (cranial and dental characters) unambiguously allies the new species with species of Isothrix. While the inclusion of the new taxon does not resolve the "star phylogeny" which underlies the echimyid radiation, it identifies the Andes as a possible theatre for the evolution of some soft-haired members of the group. The new species is described and a revised diagnosis of the...

Re-examining the hypothesis of allopatric distribution of Myoprocta acouchy and M. pratti (Mammalia: Dasyproctidae) in South America Pap. Avulsos de Zool. (São Paulo)
Ramírez-Chaves,Héctor E.; Suárez-Castro,Andrés F.; Patterson,Bruce D..
Currently, two allopatric species of acouchies, genus Myoprocta (Rodentia: Dasyproctidae) are recognized. Nevertheless, there is morphological variability in the regions where the species are distributed that suggests either sympatry of two (or more) distinct species or else breakdowns in the characters that have been used to diagnose the species. We reviewed specimens of Myoprocta from Colombia and found that both reddish and greenish forms are sympatric in the Amazon basin of the country, including areas adjoining Ecuador and Peru. These records apparently refute the hypothesis of allopatry for these species in South America. However, the results of a principal components analysis showed little or no morphological separation between these two forms. In...

Maren Morris' "My Church" Sets Country Radio Record
Posted bycountrymusicrocks January 20, 2016 January 25, 2016
Singer/songwriter Maren Morris' debut single "My Church" makes Country radio history today with a record breaking 107 first week Country radio chart reporting stations spinning the song that the Village Voice describes as being a "windows-down anthem about finding composure and contentment behind the wheel."
As the No. 1 most added song at Country radio for the week, "My Church" sets the record for the highest charting debut single by a female in Country Aircheck's Mediabase history and with today's massive radio impact, "My Church" leaps to No. 32 on the Billboard Country Airplay Chart. The previous record for a debut single was 99 "adds" at impact date, until today.
"My Church," the first single off the Texas singer/songwriter's forthcoming album due later this year, was co-written and co-produced by Morris along with songwriter and producer Busbee (Christina Aguilera, Hunter Hayes, Little Big Town) and appeared on Morris' self-titled EP, Maren Morris, which released in November reaching the top position on the Billboard Heatseekers Albums Chart. The EP has received glowing marks from the Village Voice, Dallas Observer, Pop Dust and NPR Music listed the track "I Wish I Was" as one of their Favorite Songs of 2015 touting "At the starting gate of a big career, this 25-year-old Texan shows the swagger and the style of a young Bonnie Raitt."
In addition to turning heads in the Media and Radio world, fellow Nashville artists have taken note of Morris' artistry. Most recent was Country Music superstar Keith Urban as he tapped Morris to join his RipCORD World Tour 2016 along with Brett Eldredge with dates throughout the summer in most major markets including Los Angeles, New York, Nashville, Philadelphia, Dallas, Chicago, Minneapolis and Washington, DC.
Furthermore, as fans of Morris anxiously await news of her forthcoming album the "one woman southern gospel choir" [Storme Warren, SiriusXM's The Highway] continues to appear on multiple 2016 Watch Lists including USA Today (5 Musicians To Watch Out For in 2016), SiriusXM (Artists to Watch in 2016), Huffington Post (#1 on their Country Artist's to Watch in 2016), Boston Globe (16 Artists To Look Forward to Hearing in 2016) and Billboard, where Morris was featured as one of seven artists across all genres in the January 16 "Predictions Issue."

golden age when Metro could afford to put writers on crime stories (and hence have them sit in court for a month).
And they did it, even when they couldn't really. Metro spent an awfully long time being marginally profitable, but no matter what else you think of Warwick Roger he had a very clear idea of what he wanted Metro to be, and proprietors willing to hang in there until it found an audience. It's not just a matter of "cheap and nasty is as cheap as nasty does" but the simple reality is that anyone getting into publishing for a quick and easy profit is a fucking fool.

It's not just journalists that are are hurting in the media world, funds available for drama and other local broadcasting are static at best and the fees paid to performers and writers are sinking whilst the hours worked are no less. A lot of this is down to the apparent disinterest in the broadcasters in helping create material that could be of appeal internationally. Whilst happy to import Oz/UK/USA drama there is no traffic going the other way. With the upgrade of the rebate for offshore expenditure here (after a tooth and claw battle) there is a small increase in offshore production but with the parlous state of studio infrastructure in Auckland that is not about to take off much further anytime soon.

It really wouldn't be so hard to harness all the individual creative giants here to make impressive film, tv and webseries if the industry was given the support that, say, farming gets. The world is crying out for more and more content - and that goes for proper news reporting and analysis too, imho.

I can and do already block ads as much as possible, and one reason I avoid apple is because they insist on ads everywhere. This latest move only allows people to block browser ads AFAIK, not all ads and especially not Apple-ecosystem ads. It's less of a "remove the ads" and more "remove Google/DoubleClick ads"... who are their competition. Gee, what a surprise that they should want to block those.
We ask a lot, but we're willing to trade very little in return. I balk at a paywall and apparently I don't want to see ads either, but by god they'd better not get rid of any of those journalists, how dare they!
I disagree. I donate to places like PA every year, and I donated to TheConversation even though they are still trying to decide whether they want comment threads and how those might work if they had them (moderation is extremely erratic), and their article range from excellent to WTF.
I really hope the adblocking shakeout leads to a workable solution. I'm willing to be tracked by the people who supply the content so I can pay them, but I object vigorously to having my computer taken over by people who exist purely to annoy me (apparently advertising is the art of being just annoying enough to be noticed without being so annoying that too many people opt out).
I would happily pay a fee to the operator of my feed aggregator that goes to the feed sources. I already pay for the aggregator. If it was like the various music systems... no, wait, it should be completely unlike those and based on a compulsory license so that I don't have to subscribe to 10 different services. But yeah, $10/mo for my news habit would be fine.

FWIW there is active discussion around the geeky traps of how to replace online ads with a workable system, but it's a non-trival challenge. The human factors and repeated failures of micropayments make it difficult, but the music and tv subscription services do point to ways forward. In general, "pay for what you use" breaks because people don't like knowing that everything they do has a cost (and the cost is as much the mental effort of wondering it it's really worth paying for this). So we end up with subscriptions... but the media landscape is so fragmented that it makes music seem simple. Google/Apple News doesn't work because the money goes to Goople rather than the writers. And for people like me that don't read mainstream media it's not relevant because I can't access PA through it (or any other site I read).

I left 'proper' journalism earlier this year, feeling after some 20-odd years in the one place that it was time for a change but also because I could feel the disillusion growing.
The couple of years we all took a wage freeze because the company asked us, because it would help the company survive were not repaid with loyalty in any way, shape or form - the next three pay rises were all below the cost of living, there were fewer people to do the same or more work, experience and institutional knowledge were not valued.
Everyone screams 'digital' and 'synergy' but no one knows how to make digital pay and in the meantime old-fashioned journalism where there were reporters and subs, where stories were crafted without reporting to Facebook comments, is disappearing.

I work with a large number of NZ's digital publishers and am genuinely concerned about the commercial viability of many of them.
The current ad funded model is broken as it relies on advertisers paying a premium for an audience they can find cheaply elsewhere (Facebook, Google.....)
As the ad dollars decline, so too do the resources the publisher has at its disposal (journalists, designers, ......) This is a death spiral.
As a number of commenters have alluded to, the industry needs to be reimagined if we are to have quality local content in the (not to distant) future.

Yeah, I love all these websites that dutifully explain that they use cookies. That's fine. Do they explain when they're using cross-site tracking cookies, or reading those placed by others? Not so much.

Not to mention things like link prefetching complicating things.

Yeah, if micropayments mean "paying for what you use", page by page, they're not really a good solution. Paying a fixed sum and having it divided up between publishers is better.
Our house responds to occasional Wikipedia fundraising drives and we became a Guardian member for a few quid (got a shopping bag to show off at Farro). I don't mind paying for something everyone can use for free.
But I also don't think advertising is terrible. Our glorious spell – about a decade ago – when Scoop was selling for us and the agencies were buying was really good. I was able to invest in the site and treat the contributors to drinks and dinners. I blogged most days.
But we really don't fit into the programatic advertising model that is now ubiquitous. What people aren't seeing is the automated system underlying web ads that is running constant micro-auctions to place campaigns with advertisers. It's the reason you see shitty, low-value ads on high-quality websites. It's actually also not doing the advertising industry any good – it's kind of the enemy of creativity.
I initially thought we'd be able to sell more retail-level advertising, but we've been mediated out in a different way there. Restaurants and frock shops have direct relationships with their customers via Facebook and email databases now. If they want to advertise, Facebook ads deliver an amazing bang-for-buck. No one will remember your ad tomorrow, of course.
We actually have access to a really good ad-serving infrastructure. We sell a few ads, very cheaply, to music and the arts, but that's about it for the moment. What has worked in the past is working with comms companies and getting brands alongside specific things we do – especially events – but there are diminishing returns on effort there too.
Russell Brown, in reply to Stansta, 16:55 Sep 21, 2015
Exactly. It's particularly difficult for independent publishers, because we can't offer the necessary scale. I'm guessing it's hurting magazines esecially, which has long been the sector with the most independents and the greatest diversity of ownership.
If you think of anything, let me know :-)

Here's some irony.
NZME's random-cost-cutter-in-chief, head of publishing Phil Eustace, was sacked today too.
It always seems to happen after these guys have done their damage ...

Fantastic report Russell - and thankyou for referencing that piece which I agonised a lot about publishing and which caused considerable consternation at both the major newspaper publishers.
The fact is the NZ news industry is facing an existential crisis. Decisions are being made which cannot be undone which are dismantling much of what remains of the "Fourth Estate" that part of the media which holds the powerful to account on behalf of the citizenry.
There is an urgent need for political and institutional consideration to be given to the question:
What effect will the loss of an effective news industry in NZ have on business, democracy, the rule of law and Government accountability. Once gone it will be much harder to bring it back to life.
And that is why at Scoop.co.nz we have launched takebackthenews.nz which Russell has generously agreed to advertise on this site.

In Wellington there is a mini-conference on 9&10 October - a Friday evening and Saturday at St Andrews on the Terrace which will provide an opportunity to discuss these issues. Amongst those speaking are:
- Alastair Thompson from Scoop,
- Alex Clark whose News Renewed research looked at the market for paywall journalism and concluded that while few readers would pay for a single 'paper' behind a paywall the interest in a bundle of media - say NZHerald + NYT - is significantly greater.
- Peter Thompson, a Victoria academic whose recent research has looked a models for funding public interest broadcasting.
- Oliver Lineham from OIA website FYI.org.nz
Public Good website has the information.

Do more with less is the new normal.
This mantra is not specific to this particular Government, though it is a National theme. The Bolger/Shipley fandango during the 90's destruction of the public sector also used it on a daily basis.
And Brian Rudman was told his job was being disestablished because "there is no longer any requirement for Auckland commentary".
WTActualF?? Like Rudman only commented on Auckland issues?

Lloyd James  (born 26 October 1947), better known as Prince Jammy or King Jammy, is a Jamaican dub mixer and record producer. He began his musical career as a dub master at King Tubby's recording studio. His dubs are known for their clear sound and use of effects.

Biography
After earning money from building amplifiers and repairing electrical equipment from his mother's house in Waterhouse in the late 1960s, he started his own sound system.  He also built equipment for other local systems.  After leaving Jamaica to work in Canada for a few years in the early 1970s, he returned to Kingston in 1976 and set up his own studio at his in-laws' home in Waterhouse, and released a couple of Yabby You productions. When Phillip Smart left King Tubby's team to work in New York City, Jammy replaced him, getting to work with Bunny Lee and Yabby You.

In the late 1970s he began to release his own productions, including the debut album from Black Uhuru in 1977. In the 1980s, he became one of the most influential producers of dancehall music. His biggest hit was 1985's "Under Me Sleng Teng" by Wayne Smith, with an entirely-digital rhythm hook. Many credit this song as being the first "digital rhythm" in reggae, leading to the modern dancehall era. Later into 1980s, Jammy improvised Reggae and Dancehall, he digitalized old riddims, like Real Rock, and Far East. King Jammy then began working with top artists in Jamaica throughout the 1980s and 1990s such as Admiral Bailey, Admiral Tibet, Chaka Demus, Frankie Paul, Lieutenant Stitchie, Pinchers, and even Dennis Brown. Jammy's productions and sound system dominated reggae music for the remainder of the 1980s and into the 1990s. He continues to work as a producer, working with some of today's top Jamaican artists, including Sizzla.

FCC Phnom Penh is the first stop for newcomers and it's easy to see why. Set in a beautiful colonial house with sumptuous views across the river on one side and the National Museum to the other, it's best to come at sunset when the streets below are most crowded, the cocktails are half price and draft beer goes for US$1. FCC Phnom Penh open daily from 7am to midnight.


A new report has slammed the prestigious Karolinska Institute (KI) medical university for committing multiple errors in the case of Italian surgeon Paolo Macchiarini, whose trachea operations in Sweden caused controversy when patients died.
Last week an external investigation led by Kjell Asplund, chairman of the Swedish National Council on Medical Ethics, revealed that KI exerted pressure on the Karolinska University Hospital to hire the disgraced celebrity surgeon.
And a separate report headed by Sten Heckscher, former president of the Supreme Administrative Court of Sweden, on Monday outlined errors committed in the case by KI, the university closely linked to the hospital.
Excuses have been coming thick and fast since Asplund's investigation said that Macchiarini should not even have been employed at the hospital where he carried out experimental synthetic trachea operations on critically ill individuals. Several resigned in its wake.
On Friday meanwhile, KI chairman Lars Leijonborg left his post on the same day that he was given the results of the Heckscher review. Leijonborg denied that criticism was behind his resignation.
Heckscher's report blasts KI for not investigating Macchiarini's background more before hiring him, particularly after negative reviews of his performance emerged from previous employers.
"I have never seen the like of these negative references. They certainly don't mince their words. He was for example mentioned in Italian media and was not considered competent for employment in Florence," Heckscher told a press conference on Monday morning. "Those references would make anyone think twice."
KI has apologized for its actions in the Macchiarini case, but only after the Karolinska University Hospital did so first, while the institute has also subsequently recognized that it put pressure on the hospital to hire the surgeon.
Developments in the Macchiarini affair are far from over: in total around a dozen inquiries into his operations in Sweden are under way.
He was reported to the Swedish authorities by four doctors as early as 2014, but an internal probe cleared him of research misconduct and carrying out procedures without ethical permission.
