Many of these structures are decommissioned and are on disused railway lines and plans have been put forward by Highways England to demolish or infill 134 of these.
This is only the first phase and it is understood that as many as 480 could be demolished. A significant number of the structures proposed for demolition are currently used by walkers and many of the routes have been identified as possibly being reopened again for rail use along with being used for cycling and walking.

Bridge 1711 crosses the protected railway route running from County School on the Mid Norfolk Railway through to Fakenham and is one of those listed in the first phase for demolition. The track bed through Great Ryburgh and into Fakenham is safeguarded under North Norfolk's Policy CT7 for Sustainable Transport Uses. We have shared our concerns with Norfolk County Council, local MP's, District and Parish Councils in order that we can deal with this threat.
Contact will also be made with the Railway Heritage Trust whose objectives are: to assist operational railway companies in the preservation and upkeep of listed buildings and structures. They also offer help to facilitate the transfer of non-operational premises and structures to outside bodies willing to undertake their preservation.
We are members of the Norfolk Rail Policy Group and a representative of the Highways England Historic Railways Estates will be contacted and invited to attend the next meeting in February 2021.

Radio Norfolk Presenter Wally Webb on Bridge 1715 at Fakenham in September 2017
The popular BBC Radio Norfolk Presenter Wally Webb retired on the 2nd January 2021 after 40 years on air. He was one of the first presenters on Radio Norfolk when it launched and his first show was on the 14th September 1980. The first track he played was an AC/DC hit! Since then he has presented a number of shows including a Sunday Rock show and the early morning Breakfast show.
Wally is well known by many listeners as the roving reporter who travelled all over Norfolk interviewing local people and covering events in the region. On the 8th September 2017 he visited our section of railway land at Fakenham and interviewed Project Officer Paul Young after a recent spate of vandalism, here is that article. https://norfolk-orbital-railway.co.uk/newly-restored-fakenham-railway-bridge-1715-vandalised/
Once the interview was finished, our Project Officer Paul, who at the time worked for a local community radio station interviewed Wally as they were back along the track bed to their cars.
Listen here to the interview:
The Fakenham Area Conservation Team
The Melton Constable Trust own a section of the former Great Eastern Railway trackbed at Fakenham. Trains would travel from Wells-next-the-Sea through to the Fakenham East station and then onto Dereham and Wymondham which was the main line connection to Norwich and beyond.
The trackbed at Fakenham is now a Permissive path and we are continually grateful to the Fakenham Area Conservation Team that help maintain the vegetation and keep the path clear ensuring that members of the public can enjoy this heritage walk.
Members of the Fakenham area Conservation Team at Bridge 1715
Chris Yardley who manages the Fakenham Area Conservation Team, with the help of Tracey is always looking for new volunteers:
The Fakenham Area Conservation Team works in the Fakenham area to do practical conservation tasks with a team of volunteers. Our work mostly concentrates on managing different habitats for wildlife and public amenity, together with maintaining access along some of the many rural rights of way and permissive paths in and around the Town.
We always welcome people to the group and actively seek new members who want to come to join us. There is no joining fee or expectation to donate anything apart from your time to enjoy working with us. There are no commitments over coming to tasks and we are happy if people just drop in and out as the time they have allows.
The Permissive Path at Fakenham between Bridge 1714 and the Three Brick Arches over the River Wensum Bridge 1714.
We have a full inclusiveness policy and will try to accommodate people from all backgrounds, ages (children need to be accompanied by an adult) and abilities, although the tasks tend to require some walking and some physical activity depending on what they are (we do things such as path cutting / levelling, tree planting, grassland and scrub cutting / management)
We have a Health and Safety policy, inclusiveness policy and child safety policy. We are fully insured for public liability through The Conservation Trust – which covers all volunteers for any conservation management task that they are doing whilst with us.

FACT was formed in 1989 by the then Wensum Valley Project (County Council sponsored) and has been going continuously since then. We work with a variety of partner organisations such as The Melton Constable Trust, Fakenham Town Council, Sculthorpe Church to provide management of their sites. The Melton Constable Trust and Town Council have been extremely supportive of FACT over the years and provided us with funding and equipment together with shared help on projects and publicity.

Update – July 2020
We very much hope that you are keeping safe and well in these difficult times. It was our intention to contact all our supporters last year but difficulties intervened including a number of family bereavements.
Our aims and ambitions for the Orbital project remain the same as ever and we hope that you will find the attached leaflet of interest. Our immediate challenge is to pay off the outstanding debt on the second section of route we are buying at Holt although of course ultimate success will rely not only on securing the land but also obtaining the necessary approvals from the County Council and the ORR. We have, of course, already bought the first section of track bed opposite the North Norfolk Railway station at High Kelling and have paid about half of the purchase price of the second section. £50,000 is outstanding. We have £25,000 towards this and, therefore, need to raise another £33,000 taking into account interest and legal costs.
The leaflet below gives details of how you can donate, either by a one off donation or by taking out a standing order. The standing order allows you to spread your donation over a period. (Please go to our support page for more details)
This letter is, therefore, an appeal for your support in raising the last funds necessary to secure this further vital section of track bed. We shall be very grateful for any help you can give.
The lockdown has served to emphasize the need for people to help with all the challenges which lie ahead so please let us know if you are able to assist in any way. We particularly need help with the fundamental issue of proving that the railway and a central Holt station can be built on the land alongside the by-pass to the satisfaction of the County Council. Relevant surveying, planning and engineering skills will be of great value. This work is essential if we are to confirm that we will definitely be permitted to build the railway into Holt.
It might be worthwhile reminding ourselves what we have achieved to date:
 Successful professional feasibility studies for the whole route from Holt to Dereham
 Successful professional traffic forecast study for the whole orbital route.
 Purchase of track bed and associated land at Holt and at Fakenham
 Agreement to purchase a second section of track bed at Holt over a period, with a large part of the purchase price paid.
 Restoration of the two bridges at Fakenham
 Interpretation panels on the Fakenham track bed providing public informationabout the railway and our plans
 Substantial work with Fakenham Academy to provide teaching material about the railway and to engage younger people with our project
 Collaboration with Fakenham Area Conservation Team who are undertaking maintenance on the Fakenham land.
 A tour of interested parties from local authorities and other groups to view progress at Fakenham, in collaboration with the Mid Norfolk Railway
 Protection of the route through Holt
 Planning consent to lay demonstration track at Holt
 4,570 Followers on the Facebook page
As many of you will know, the M&GN Institute at Melton Constable is one of the last remaining buildings of its kind in the country. We have always been grateful to the Institute for allowing us to house our HQ there. In these challenging times it is more important than ever that those of us who care about the railways to support the club and come forward with active help. Let us know if you would like more details.

Some encouraging news – The County Council's Norfolk Rail Prospectus makes positive reference to a number of potential re-opening schemes. We were particularly encouraged by a reference to Fakenham which states in connection to the Mid-Norfolk's Wymondham to Dereham line "In the longer-term there is potential for housing and jobs growth at Dereham. Dereham is the fifth largest settlement in the county and the largest settlement not connected by the national rail network (although, the Mid-Norfolk Railway operates privately and owns the infrastructure from Wymondham to Dereham). The next largest settlement not connected by rail is Fakenham, – Feasibility into opening this link to mainstream passenger services in the longer term could be considered. The County Council is currently considering whether it can carry out work in this with that which it is progressing on Kings Lynn to Hunstanton."
Further on there is a reference to our scheme in particular and it states that the council will endeavour to provide help where it can.
Orbital rail (Wymondham-Dereham-Fakenham-Holt-Sheringham)
Existing private railways operate at either end of this line to Dereham and Holt).The Holt, Melton Constable & Fakenham Railway Co Ltd is pursuing plans to complete the link. This is seen as an independent initiative – as will any other similar initiatives and as such will need to be pursued by independent groups utilising their own funds, although the county council will endeavour to provide help where it can.
We are also keeping a close eye on proposals to utilise former routes for cycling and walking with various routes under consideration. We have pointed out, of course, that if these routes are to be used for this purpose then provision should also be made for the return to the purpose for which they were built – railways.
The Government says that it intends to promote major infrastructure projects in order to help the economy recover. What this means in reality remains to be seen but we shall of course be watching out for any significant opportunities.
We have to state that there is no guarantee that any of our efforts will be successful but some of us are old enough to have been in at the start of what became the railway preservation movement in East Anglia. We did not achieve our lofty aim of reversing the closures at the start of the 60's but once this pandemic is over there will be trains running again over lines which would otherwise have been ripped up long ago. We are still pioneers planning for the day when railways will again be seen as a vital contribution to the local economy and the environment.

Audio: John Bishop, M&GN Fireman
Melton Constable Railway Station and the Locomotive works on the Midland and Great Northern Railway (M&GN) played a significant role in Norfolk. The busy Melton Constable workshops were nicknamed the Crewe Works of North Norfolk where locomotives were built and repaired. The railway provided work and to attract and accommodate the families, a gasworks, Railway Institute, shops and houses were built.
In May of 2017, our reporter Paul Young interviewed John Bishop who worked on the M&GN as a fireman on steam locomotives. He also talks of the railway accident from 5th November 1946 just outside Norwich City Station.
To listen to the interview please click here:
https://norfolk-orbital-railway.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/John-Bishop-Final.mp3
After the interview, John showed me the picture he had of the accident and an in-house account covering the accident which reads as follows, author unknown:
Engine Number 5534 called by the crews "A Knock John"
Driver Henry Scott, Fireman David Jackson (Tuby) Guard Bob Collins.
On overtime and hoping to travel home in the guards van, driver and fireman of an earlier working into City Station, Driver Jimmy Greaves and Fireman John Bishop. John had been up to the engine intending to ride back to Melton on the footplate with Tuby being school pals the natural thing to do, however Henry was having none of that, saying "one of you are enough trouble let alone two!" John returned to the brake van to ride home with Bob Collins the guard.
As it was this was a very lucky event for John, as in the vent that follows he would of without a doubt have been killed that night. There are various views leading up to the accident, though what I have pieced together is very credible.
It had been a recognised procedure over the years and strictly adhered to, that the points out of the good siding being that they were operated by the Shunters and not the Signalman be at all times switched to the stops on the banks of the River Wensum this way no wagon may get out on to the main line accidental. It was not one of the best nights to be out, a foggy night and not improved by the mist rising off the River Wensum. The train now made up and ready to leave Norwich City goods yard for Melton Constable with what was known as the last goods.
The head shunter in anticipation thrown the points over for that train when it was ready to leave considering the conditions at the time, a seemly thing to do. However another member of the yard staff passing and seeing the points in the position they were in and remembering the usual procedure threw them back to direct traffic to the stops.
Meanwhile, Jimmy Greaves and John Bishop enjoying the home comforts of the warm stove in the guards van, not the slightest idea of what was to follow. The guard having exchanged documnents with the head shunter climbs into the guards van to join his welcome company for the return journey. The head shunter to let the signalman know all was ready to leave as and when he was ready to take them.
The crew of the engine all prepared for the return journey awaits the signal to go into the off position that they may move off. It was not long before the clattering of the signal as it was switched into the right way position.
Henry now standing on the raised step by the drivers seat, right hand on the regulator, shoulder leaning on the boiler casing enabling a gradual pressure of steam to the pistons, the damp atmosphere and heavy train behind gave every possibilty of the wheels slipping. Henry increasing pressure as the train was taking momentum, Tuby on the other hand leaning out into the darkness looking for the guards signal. A lamp swinging from side to side from the brake indicating that all was well and the whole train following in the manner intended.
He could not yet see any light from the brake, leaning even further out clinging to the uprights of the steps up onto the engine attempting to draw the guards attention by swinging his own lamp the front lamp from his cycle he had brought with him and still nothing. Above the noise of the engine beat he called out to Henry to give him another blow on the whistle.
Henry reaching up for the whistle cord suddenly found himself being thrown again the boiler and towards the drivers window as the engine struck the buffer stops and started to downward career towards the river and lurching on to its side. His body thrust against the the seat his legs coming up off the step he had been standing on suddenly forced towards the fire hole door by Tuby's body as he was flung from his previous position gripping the hand rails. Leaning out as he was saved him from the fire irons consisting of a bent dart, straight dart and slack shovel. One of these alone would certainly have caused some serious injury these tools with other loose equipment bedded themselves into the space beside the boiler, exactly where John Bishop would have been sitting had Henry allowed him on the engine.
Accident scene – Stuart Mcpherson
The engine had now come to a halt the water from the river getting into the ash pan and up into the firebox causing the cab to become an inferno of steam and belching flame. The train wagons loaded heavily still pushing from behind forcing the tender up into the air while two wagons ended up under the tender. In the meantime the tender plate rupturing the floor boards of the cab momentarily making it impossible for Tuby to get up the steam and belching flame making it a very uncomely position. The whistle had now drooped open issuing its ear splitting howl, accompanied by escaping steam from the safety valve all adding to the confusion surrounding the engine crew.
Henry having gone out of the cab leaving Tuby alone watching as the water from the tender filler hole cover now flung back pours over the coal bringing with it small pieces of coal and other items off the tender expecting at any moment to have one of the large lumps of coal to land upon him adding to the already discomfort. Seeing the ring of light below the side of the cab now above him with a final effort makes it out into the night air.
Tuby finds Henry who is fine though shaken, the barb wire put by the river as part of the war defences makes getting up on the goods yard difficult. He walks back down the train and is accosted by the shunter "Who are you!?" He tells the man, who when advised no serious injury had taken place was overcome with emotion with the thoughts of what he may have been responsible for and disappeared into the night.
In the brake van John Bishop was thrown against the the brake sheet causing damage to his right arm. Jimmy Greaves had injury to his body and had to go to hospital the next day. The guard I believe was not injured they had a recessed seat and if he was using it that may have helped to save him.
The staff at the station were in a quandary as how they may get the crews back to Melton, some clown suggest should someone not put the injectors on? With much discussion a taxi was called for and tw very wet dirty engine men and the crew from the brake loaded into this oversized taxi and taken back to Melton. Tuby now had to cycle home with no light this he had lost in the accident his concern was the local Policeman may see him.
The next thing he know is Mother calling him up the stairs she having no knowledge of the whole incident. A man wants you from the works she said thinking someone was enquiring how he was after the accident he came down. The messenger says can you come on duty the other crew that would be John Bishop and Jimmy Greaves are off sick and can't take their turn today.
This is from the horse's mouth and I am prepared to believe it fact and true.
Today this would have resulted in serious counselling and compensation. I add railway men played a part in the war effort as many of their counterparts they received no medals for their efforts.
Audio: Worthing Weekend 19th and 20th May 2018
History was made on the Mid Norfolk Railway over the weekend of the 19th and 20th May 2018 when public timetabled services returned to Worthing for the first time since 1964. A train consisting of the steam locomotive GWR Hawksworth Pannier Tank number 9466 and diesel Class 04 D2334 with five carriages ran the passengers along the line from Wymondham to Worthing.
Next stop Worthing Crossing.
The next stage of the ongoing development will be to reach the village of North Elmham where rail freight was still in operation up until 1989. From there a mile and a half of track will need to be relaid to get to the Mid Norfolk Railway's Northern Station, County School.

Decisions, decisions! Of the many decisions that you'll need to make, choosing the right design for your bridesmaids is quite a big one. Though before we go any further, let's have a look at the essentials of choosing the right bridesmaid dress.
First of all, and probably most important of all, it helps to have an idea of your budget for the dress. Normally, your bridesmaids will be paying for their own dress so it's definitely a good idea to know how much they are willing to spend and maybe sound it out with them first. If you are paying for the dresses, then have a figure in mind for your overall costs first before you start browsing online.
You'll know from doing the research on your wedding dress that you need to order your friends dresses well in advance. Typically you will be looking at 2-3 months for orders to arrive then there's the inevitable alterations and those can take at least 4-6 weeks. Ideally 6 months should give you and your girls plenty of time to source, order and eventually alter the dresses. Six months sounds like a long timeframe, but these things always take longer than you think.
Normally a bridesmaid dress is made according to your largest measurements, which means that your girls will probably end up buying dresses a whole size bigger than they would normally buy. Should one of your friends wish to pick up a size smaller, it might be an idea to let her know that is it always easier to make alterations to a dress if it is too big rather the other way round. If the dress arrives and it is way too small, it will mean having to order a new dress and that is not ideal given the timeframe!
Your maids dresses need to work with the design of your dress and ideally they should tie in with the overall design and colour palette of your wedding. Also, it's important to select a colour that complements all skin tones. Soft washed out pastel colours including grey, sand, blush are generally very flattering for most people. Green tones tend to work well for people with fair complexions though bright bolder tones will definitely pop against darker skin. On trend this year and last are metallic colours such as bronze, silver, gold and champagne. If you've seen a print design which you like, ideally the dominant colours will need to work across the whole colour palette and design of your wedding.
Two Birds have been on the scene for a while now and their super stylish, modern dresses are very flattering and just look great on! They were one of the first designers to create a bridesmaid dress that ties around. Here you can see a Cote D'Azur wedding I shot featuring Two Birds dresses and another is a lovely Wedding at The Rectory.
Maids to Measure are a London based designer who have really cornered the market for beautiful ready to wear dresses at very reasonable prices. Though as the name suggests, they also create bespoke dresses to order which are slightly more expensive. Here is Jo & Ryan's Hedsor House wedding featuring their gorgeous designs. Clare & Richard's wedding at Northbrook Park also had Maids To Measure design their dresses.
Ghost dresses are synonymous with gorgeous flowing fabrics and lush modern lines and their maids gowns are as you'd expect. A relatively new player to the wedding market, Ghost dresses are surprisingly affordable and are definitely worth a look. Here's a link to view Sheyi & Simon's stylish wedding at Hampton Court House that I photographed.
Towards the luxury end of the market are Coast dresses. They've specialised in evening dresses for a while and their collection of bridesmaid dresses are gorgeous. Georgina & Alex's wedding at The Walled Garden at Cowdray featured Coast dresses which went down a hit! Ansty & Joe plumped for Coast for their Brompton Oratory wedding.
Alfred Sung has been catapulted from a largely unknown designer to one of the biggest names in bridal wear and his contemporary bridesmaid gowns are divine and very reasonable. From long flowing full length designs to floaty chiffon numbers, from pretty prints to shorter knee high length creations, Alfred Sung seems to have thought of everything for the modern maid. Megs & Mo's Wiltshire wedding, Lucy & James' Bocconnoc House wedding, and Liz & Leigh's Provence wedding all feature Dessy dresses.
ASOS now have a huge range of dresses on offer and they are very reasonably priced. Their Maxi dresses start at £45 and look incredible for the money. Michelle & Gary had their wedding photos at Botleys Mansion last year and the ASOS dresses looked beautiful.
New York based Amsale Aberra is a world renowned designer known for her simple, effortless elegant designs. Her work is very contemporary and yet evokes a feeling of old school glamour. Krissy & Paul's Sudeley Castle Wedding in The Cotswolds has Amsale designs.
And last by no means least we have the very gorgeous wrap dresses from designers Eliza & Ethan. They've created a very clever 'one size fits all' design in a range of 22 beautiful on trend colours in a non crease fabric. Genius! Charlotte & Kieran Wedding Photography at Caswell House feature Eliza & Ethan dresses.


Interviewing is not easy, there are so many things that you need to be aware of - body language; dress sense; background research; clarity of communication; are you building rapport?; are you being too familiar?; are you actually answering the question that was asked?;....the list of things you need to be aware of is extensive and you will find it quite exhausting and probably counterproductive, if you try to concentrate on too many at once. One thing I have found that makes the interview process so much easier and increases your chances of securing a job offer, is if you keep your message consistent. What you tell your recruitment consultant is invariably what they will then relay to the hiring manager.
A few, classic examples would be: your reason for leaving a previous employer, your salary expectations, your goals for the next role. What hiring managers do not appreciate, is when their expectations of a prospective employee is altered. An obvious example relates to salary expectations. We all work within budgetary constraints.
If you have a targeted salary level in mind and this has been discussed with your recruitment consultant, then do not stray from this figure if you asked this same question by a prospective employer in an interview. More will invariably see the hiring manager questioning why you were put forward for the role and if you provide a lower figure (quite often job seekers will provide a range), then do not be surprised when that is the salary offered. Another recent example of the impact of an inconsistent message that comes to mind, is when a highly qualified job seeker was considered for a position which was 'at best', a sideways move. Why would this role be of interest? Because the job seeker had reached a stage in life where `ladder climbing' was no longer the main goal. Finding a good job, good people, an interesting industry and being situated close to home, all rated higher on her wish list.
This information was then relayed to the hiring manager. However, when asked in the interview what her goals were for the next five years (an average question, but always asked!) the answer changed to indicating a stronger focus on career advancement. Why? Because she thought this response was what the hiring manager would prefer to hear. In this instance this was not the case, and by keeping the message consistent, this may have produced a more favourable outcome, i.e. getting the job!

Get ready for the next wave of Surface Gear.
It's that time of the year again! Microsoft just sent out invites for its next major Surface hardware event on October 2nd. It'll be set in NYC, just like last year when it showed off the Surface Book 2. We're hearing there will be both updates to existing devices, as well as some new gadgetry. Perhaps we'll see a refresh for the Surface Laptop, which could use some updated hardware. Don't expect anything crazy like a Surface Phone, though. Microsoft's mobile strategy is still primarily focused on spreading to iOS and Android.


We're going to RootsCamp in DC in a little less than three weeks, we have space in our van, and I hope you can come along.
What's RootsCamp? It's two days of powerful conversations with some of the smartest progressive folks doing online organizing today. If you are working to make change and want to do your online work in a smart and strategic way, this is for you. It's a great chance to meet, learn from and teach other progressive organizers in an open, collaborative atmosphere.
Organized by the non-profit New Organizing Institute in Washington, DC, the 6th annual RootsCamp is happening the weekend of February 18th and 19th in Washington. There is a minivan of people splitting costs on the drive from Toronto (~$120/person for transport), and we have 2 spaces left. I hope you'll consider coming along with us.
I have been to Rootscamp twice now, and I have been really impressed at how an unstructured and free event can be so enriching. I have learned about organizing and messaging strategies and tactics – both online and on the ground – from people at the heart of movements like the Obama campaign, MoveOn.org and directly from inspiring political yodas like Marshall Ganz. There's even a career fair for all kinds of progressive jobs (in the U.S.) If you are trying to make change for the better, this is a great opportunity to grab some mid-winter learning and inspiration, and make sure you have a Canadian posse down in DC.
I recognize this is really short notice, and I hope you can make it.

Today I want to show you some cool stunts you can do with single-case ADTs to help you make invalid states unrepresentable.
To be precise I want to talk a bit about Phantom Types – those are parametrised types where a type-variable only appears on the left-hand side (in the type-definition) but not on the right-hand side (the type-constructor). You can use this to put some kind of type-label on you types to help you keep things separated.
This has the advantage that (in contrast to ADTs with several cases) you can extent it without having to change the type.
To make this a bit more practical the example throughout this short essay will be encoding of strings as byte-arrays and hashing those with a crypto-hash. So there are basically a lot of different byte-arrays you can operate on, but if you choose the wrong ones (say you try to compare a SHA1 hash with an MD5 hash) you are usually out of luck (better have some tests or you might have a nasty bug). Here you can use the labeling-technique with phantom-types to let the compiler help you out.
As you can see you equality just works but if you try to compare strings with different encodings the compiler will not let you – nice!
>> val hash1 : Hashed<Md5,Ascii> = ..
// will the hashes fit?
// what if the text is wrong?
// what about the wrong encoding?
// what about the wrong algorithm?
It's of course rather easy – but it's a bit of a shame that we have to use different functions (name) when the types tell the complete story.
and signature as another method in this type.
What we would need here is overloading based on the generic types – more or less what Haskell gives you with it's type-classes.
There are advanced techniques using static-constraints in F# where you can simulate those but for now I just wanted to hint at the limits.
I hope I could show a little trick to use F#s type-system for great profit – phantom types of course have many more use-cases, some of which you can read about in the Haskell-Wiki (make sure to follow the links there).

Q: Is ML.NET supported on ARM64? Is ML.NET support on ARM64 yet?
If so, can someone provide a link or perhaps some steps to test this on ARM64, please?
thank you!

A: Yes, but I need to install .NET Core 2.1 or later.
While ML.NET packages work with both .NET Core 2.1 or later and .NET Framework 4.6.1, only .NET Core 2.1 (starting from the release 2.1.609) supports ARMx64 binaries.

'It's Criminal': Cultural Funding Cuts Frustrate Oakland Artists
Sam Lefebvre

At 14th and Alice Streets in downtown Oakland, the "Universal Language" mural traces the city's black performing arts heritage. The late dancer Ruth Beckford, an influential promoter of Afro-Haitian styles, looms above performers with her mentee Deborah Vaughan's Dimensions Dance Theater, which operates nearby at the Malonga Casquelourd Center for the Arts. The center's namesake, Congolese artist and teacher Malonga Casquelourd, beats a drum at the center of another wall.
The arts are but one theme of the 2,500 square foot mural, which also references organized labor and grassroots activism in Oakland's black and Asian neighborhoods. Lead artists Desi Mundo and Pancho Peskador worked with the nonprofit Community Rejuvenation Project to conduct research and community outreach for six months before beginning to paint—an undertaking significantly buoyed a $40,000 grant from the City of Oakland's Cultural Funding Program.
Fewer than five years after its completion in 2014, though, the mural is disappearing behind a housing development on what was previously a parking lot. At the same time, the city program that supported the mural, plus many individual artists and Malonga tenants, recently had its grant-making budget reduced by 17 percent. "It's criminal," said Theo Aytchan Williams, director of Malonga tenant SambaFunk. "How can that happen while the city is beginning to prosper?"

Oakland artists and activists have long agitated for boosting the Cultural Funding Program's budget and infrastructure, holding it up as an important front in the fight against displacement. The grant-making operation rates applicants with an equity lens, supporting work that lifts up communities at risk of cultural erasure as the affordability crisis reshapes the city. "The roster of those top-ranked organizations is the backbone of the Oakland arts community," said Mundo.
In 2018, the Cultural Funding Program supported individual artist projects such as murals, performance series and documentaries; art-in-schools programs run by nonprofits including Destiny Arts Center and Women's Audio Mission; and general operating subsidies for Creative Growth Art Center, Eastside Arts Alliance and the Oakland Ballet, among other institutions.
In some ways, the program has lately grown: Roberto Bedoya became the first Cultural Affairs Director in 2016, announcing an agenda of redressing historical injustice in the Cultural Plan last year. He also secured funding for a staffer to help reestablish an Art Commission; Oakland City Council approved related legislation Tuesday. And soon Bedoya will announce the first "cultural strategists in government"—artists embedded as "thought partners" in city departments.

As KQED previously reported, Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf has described Bedoya's initiatives as part of the Cultural Affairs Unit's rebound from the "devastating cuts of the recession," but the budget City Council approved last month leaves his agency with more plans and less money: The annual grants budget is approximately 1,030,000, comprised of $730,000 from the general purpose fund and an anticipated $300,000 from hotel tax revenue, compared to $1,243,120 earmarked in 2017.
"Organizational support and arts in schools are the cornerstones of the creation of a future for the arts in our beloved city, and given the rapid, dizzying gentrification we're experiencing it's fundamental that you remove not one dollar from our cultural funding program," said Angela Wellman, director of the Oakland Public Conservatory of Music, at the June 24 meeting.
The councilmembers included a policy directive in their budget urging city staff to "identify ways to restore and make permanent additional funding for cultural affairs" by May of next year.
According to the Cultural Plan, Oakland's inflation-adjusted grant-making budget is nearly half of what was in 2001, and in recent years the number of applications has dramatically increased. This year, according to Bedoya, there were 25 percent more grant applicants than in 2018. "People are asking for support," he said. "We're still hoping the budget will increase along with the need."

Mundo, head of the Community Rejuvenation Project, believes declining grant dollars reflects the "privatization of public artwork." In downtown Oakland, there are more murals than ever; housing developers tout them as amenities, and sports teams sponsor them for promotion in the guise of grassroots fandom. Instead of the deeply-researched "Universal Language" mural, Mundo said, public artwork is increasingly advertisements or corporate commissions.
Mundo noted the bureaucracy of the Cultural Funding Program is its own frustration: Artists shouldn't have to also be lobbyists and nonprofit administrators. Still, he called it a reliable supporter of projects with a point of view and rich cultural texture. The CFP's support of "Universal Language," for example, offset the cost of a Cantonese translator to interview neighbors, and to study performances to capture dancers' expressive gestures on the wall.
"Universal Language" also depicts artists at a City Council meeting in 2003 to protest then-Mayor Jerry Brown's attempt to shutter the Malonga Casquelourd Center for the Arts (then the Alice Arts Center)—content that isn't likely to appear in public artwork sponsored by the city's tourism bureau, Visit Oakland. "But now we're moving towards a patronage system," Mundo said. "Less cultural stories, less of the struggle, more of the commercial and abstract."

The budget passed last month does include a $100,000 "community murals" fund, but it mostly continues a preexisting "graffiti abatement" fund by another name. Mundo's organization tracked the abatement dollars, finding some councilmembers didn't use them for public artwork at all. "It's really a slush fund," he said. "They're almost appropriating money from cultural funding."
Bedoya acknowledged the new fund is similarly aimed at deterring graffiti, but said his department will more closely oversee councilmembers' projects. And Councilmember Dan Kalb said at the June 24 meeting that he welcomes the greater involvement from Bedoya's department. "It's better government to do this through cultural affairs," Kalb said.
Also new in the city's budget is $75,000 for signage and "capacity building" in the Black Arts Movement Business District, which Oakland established downtown in 2016. Ayodele Nzinga, founding director of Lower Bottom Playaz, said it's the first time the city has funded the district at all. "The point is they created a district three years ago without so much as a plan or budget for a banner," she said, adding that district stakeholders will use the money to seek private grants.

As much as the "Universal Language" mural shows what Oakland stands to lose by reducing its investment in the arts, it also illustrates the power of cultural groups united by a common grievance. In 2016, when the project set to block "Universal Language" was first approved, the mural's creators joined with neighborhood activists and Malonga tenants to appeal the development, citing concerns that it would further destabilize the scrappy cultural center.
They won a community benefits agreement—and modeled a negotiating tactic recently used by critics of Orton Development's plan to renovate the Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center—that required the developer to donate money to the Malonga, and also to help pay for a replacement mural nearby. Eric Arnold, who helped negotiate the deal, said the replacement mural will deal with similar themes, and that it will be on the wall of the Greenlining Institute two blocks away.
To Arnold, the way the mural's removal spurred a powerful coalition of arts and neighborhood groups is a heartening example of frustrated community members taking matters into their own hands. "Whatever you think is against you, developers, city hall—there's a way to change the narrative," he said. The new mural, he added, might incorporate the tale of the old one.

A Pub Gone Green in the Heart of the English Countryside
Natural DecorIssue 39 — The Nonchalant Kitchen
Sarah Lonsdale September 24, 2013
Add eco-chic hotelier to the list of titles bestowed on Lady Bamford, the founder and inspiration behind Daylesford, the UK's most glamorous and more importantly, organic farmshop. Lady B has applied the same rigorous attention to detail in her newly opened The Wild Rabbit, a small hotel with pub and restaurant in nearby Kingham, Oxfordshire. The original building, formerly the Tollgate Inn features chalky white interiors, typical of the stone in the area, and dates back to 1750. Renovated by Lady Bamford, the inn was opened in September and was renamed The Wild Rabbit.

What A Friendly Match Looks Like Post-Lockdown Featured
Written by Ross Wardrop
Last weekend, Scottish youth football was given the green light to play friendly matches for the first time since March - when all football was put on hold due to COVID-19.
On Saturday 12th September, six months after the enforced cancellation, an eager Dumbarton United 2005s faced off against Clydebank FC at the Mountblow pitches in Clydebank, in a game that ended 1-1.
The goals came by way of a well-struck free-kick from Clydebank's number 9, Ben Vine
and a delightful chipped finish from Dumbarton United's number 6, Murdo Burch, both in the second-half.
However, the result was not important, as it was great to see the players making a welcome return to action.
The game was very different from a reporting/spectating view. Not being able to go near the action and standing outside of the fenced pitch, not being able to interact and properly interview players, coaches and the referee.
This 'new normal' will be very strange to get used to for everyone in football, but the most important thing is that all players, coaches and spectators are safe and that youth football has returned, despite only being for pre-season at the moment - most leagues across the country have varying starting dates ranging from September until the end of October.
We spoke to players, coaches and the referee after the game via social media and email to ask their thoughts on the return to football, the changes and challenges which they face in the new normal and how it felt to be back at football games.
Dumbarton United's captain, Vincent Neill told YFS: "I was really excited to play because we'd been working hard at training for a while without any notice of when games would return.
"Personally, I thought it was great to get back even though it wasn't competitive.
"There were not any massive changes in my usual routine however it was odd not to shake hands with the referee at the beginning of the match, or to shake hands with the opposition at the end of the match.
"Besides the standard social distancing measures, it was pretty similar to playing a normal match on a Saturday which was good."
Dumbarton United's head coach, David Lavery echoed his captain's sentiments: "It felt great being back in action today… I woke up buzzing for the game.
"You could see in how the boys started the game today how much they were up for it. Six months is a long time to not have played a game, so it was very pleasing to see the boys back on the pitch again.
"Being in lockdown and then not being able to play has been so hard for them both physically and with their mental health.
"The attitude since we have come back has been amazing and that's because the boys realised how much they missed their football.
"Adapting to the new measures has been weird but we are doing everything right not just as a team but as a club and it's important that the boys feel safe in the environment we have at training and at games.
"I know that parents and maybe some of the boys were anxious about coming back but it's the new normal now.
"If we want football to continue then it's important we are all doing our bit to ensure we are following the rules that have been put in place."
Clydebank's coach, Kenny Vine told us his view on the game and changes: "It was great to
finally have a game after six months. Coaches and players alike were excited to get on the field today.
"The changes didn't make too much of a difference to the match in general. It's the build-up and after the match which is difficult with no changing rooms and shaking hands. Turn up, play and go home.
"It's not ideal but we'll take it if it means we can play."
In conclusion, the changes were of course noticeable but didn't totally change the flow of the game. When speaking to those involved and thinking about my experience at the game, it seemed that the experience was a positive one that will hopefully be improved as restrictions are lifted more across the country.
This is the first step on a long journey to the eventual destination that is football at all levels across the country having full-capacity crowds.

Govt sounds 'alert' on illegal import of crackers
this story is from October 11, 2017
PTI | Oct 11, 2017, 14:52 IST
New Delhi, Oct 11 () The Customs department has been asked to keep a hawk-eyed vigil on the illegal import of firecrackers from abroad, particularly from China, officials said.
The Central Board of Excise and Customs' (CBEC) recent order to chiefs of customs zones across the country comes ahead of Diwali on October 19.
The Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) has been, from time to time, issuing alerts regarding sensitisation of officers and taking suitable measures to ensure prevention of illegal import of fireworks/crackers of foreign origin, the order stated.
"In view of the above, it is requested that the officers under your jurisdiction may be suitably alerted and appropriate measures may be taken to ensure strict compliance with the notification," it said.
The import of fireworks is restricted and requires an import license from the Directorate General of Foreign Trade.
"Further, till date, no license to import fireworks has been granted for possession and /or sale under the Explosives Rules, 2008, by Petroleum and Explosives Safety Organisation," said the order, issued by the anti-smuggling unit of the CBEC on September 27.
It cited a Supreme Court directive last month asking the Centre to ensure strict compliance of a 1992 government notification regarding the ban on the import of fireworks.
The notification was issued by the Department of Industrial Development (now Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion) on January 27, 1992.
On October 9, the apex court banned the sale of firecrackers in Delhi-NCR region till November 1.
There have been attempts from across the border to smuggle cheap and dangerous fireworks, especially of Chinese- origin, into India ahead of Diwali, a DRI official said.
These illegally-imported firecrackers are often camouflaged as toys or imported illegally by concealing them in other goods being brought into the country from abroad, he said.
Foreign remittances in case of import of Chinese fireworks are generally made through hawala channels and such goods are sold illegally in India, the official claimed.
Chinese-origin fireworks are known to contain sulphur and other hazardous substances, impacting on the environment and on the general health of the public, he said.
The DRI, the lead agency to check smuggling and customs duty frauds, had in January this year seized China-made fireworks worth Rs 10 crore.
They were imported illegally by a Punjab-based importer, the DRI official said.
During an examination of containers carrying goods at the Inland Container Depot (ICD), Tughlakabad, DRI officials found fireworks hidden behind cartons of bicycle pumps and plastic packing material to avoid detection. AKV MIN

Origin This wine is obtained from Carmennre grapes grown in San Pedro´s vineyards located in the Maule Valley (Pencahue, VII region). This area is known for its hot climate and a hilly rocky terrain, what produces ideal conditions for the development and maturation of Carmenre.
Harvest Grapes are hand-harvested in 20-kg boxes early in the morning to avoid high temperatures. Grapes are harvested with 24-25º brix. The vineyard yield is 6-8 tons per hectare.
Vinification When the grapes reach the cellar, they are kept cold for a pre-fermentative maceration for 2 to 3 days. This pre-fermentative maceration ensures a gentle extraction of colour, taste and aromas from the skin. Then the alcoholic fermentation takes place for 8 to 10 days reaching temperatures lower than 27°C. Pump overs takes place 3 times/day. Once the wine is finished, a post-fermentative maceration is undertaken, which lasts for 1-2 weeks. The wine is then transferred to French oak barrels, where it remains for 12 months, 30% of these barrels are new. The wine is clarified with natural egg whites and after a very thick filtration is bottled.
Color very dark, violet with black notes.
Aroma intense spices accompanied by soft green pepper, characteristic of this variety. There are toasted, vanilla, and smoke aromas from barrel aging, a very elegant aroma, a divergence from the traditional varieties.
Palate this is a high-bodied wine, very gentle and rich, combining many flavors. It is highly complex and leaves a velvety, sweet sensation, lots of tannins from the attack to the end, but very sweet. The oak combines well with the variety's spices; it is a long wine, leaving a sensation of maturity.
