Episode 13: The Story of Fred Sasakamoose (Season 1 finale)
This is our last episode of Changing On The Fly for season 1! We'll be back with season 2 in the fall. So as we head out for the summer, we leave you with this very special episode.
Fred Sasakamoose is a Cree elder from the Ahtahkakoop Cree reservation in central Saskatchewan. He famously became one of the first Indigenous people to ever play in the NHL, putting on a Chicago Blackhawks jersey and playing 11 games for the team in the 1953 season. But the road to there was paved with trauma, tragedy, and resilience. Fred, like so many other Indigenous people of his generation, is a survivor of Canada's Residential School system. He learned to play hockey at St-Michael's Indian Residential School, but also suffered great abuse there. Still, he kept up with his passion, and went on to make it to the highest level for a hockey player.
Fred was awarded the Order of Canada in Ottawa in May 2018, and I got to sit down with him after the ceremony so that he could share his beautiful story with all of us. And here it is.
This story was originally produced and aired on NPR's Only A Game in September 2018.

Colorado Group Hopes to Mandate GMO Food Product Labels
This entry was posted on December 09, 2013.
Colorado Businesses May Soon Need Food Product Labels to Identify GMO Ingredients
A group in Colorado hopes to make it mandatory to indicate GMO ingredients in food product labels. Called Right To Know, the organization filled out preliminary paperwork to put a measure on the November 2014 ballot requiring food companies to put custom food labels on GMO products.
State officials were set to review the language of the ballot question on Dec. 3, a necessary step before a petition drive may begin. Supporters of the bill will need more than 86,000 signatures to land a spot on the ballot, according to The Gazette, an Iowa-based newspaper.
US Consumers Want Enforcement of Food Label Printing for Genetically Engineered Products According to RT, a global television network previously known as Russian Times, various polls demonstrate that a growing number of people in the U.S. want food label printing to be mandated for GMO products. Colorado could soon became the third state to mandate GMO labeling, joining Connecticut and Maine. Several polls suggest an overwhelming majority favor similar rules, but initiatives across the country have failed.
A New York Times poll released in July found 93 percent of respondents wanted foods with genetically modified ingredients to be identified. A separate user poll from The Washington Post indicated 94 percent said GMO products should be labeled.
Proponents of these measures believe they may have failed because corporate opponents like Kraft, Coca-Cola and others bought the outcome, reported RT. A number of businesses oppose labeling initiatives, claiming a lack of significant evidence that these ingredients pose any health risks. GMO ingredients have been included in certain products for many years, according to The Gazette.

Allan is a rural locality in the Southern Downs Region, Queensland, Australia. It was formerly known as Sandy Creek. In the , Allan had a population of 87 people.

Geography
The Condamine River forms the north-eastern boundary of the locality, while Sandy Creek flows through the locality from Leslie Dam (the locality) to the west towards Leslie to the north-west (eventually becoming a tributary of the Condamine River.

The Cunningham Highway passes through the locality from the south-east (Rosenthal Heights) towards the west (Leslie Dam). The South Western railway line runs roughly parallel to the south of the highway; there is no railway station within the locality. Major arterial roads in the locality are Sandy Creek Road which runs from the highway north-west to Leslie. The Leslie Dam Road runs south from the highway towards the Leslie Dam.

The predominant land is agriculture, both cropping and grazing.

History
The locality is probably named after William Allan, an early settler, when the railway station was opened in 1904. Another theory is that it is named after botanist and explorer Allan Cunningham. The district was formerly known as Sandy Creek after the local creek.

A number of hotels were built at Sandy Creek in 1866. Adam Smith built the Darling Downs Hotel (locally known as the Sandy Creek Pub) in 1875. It operated as a coach stop for changing horses from 1880 until the railway opened in 1904. In the 1920s, the old Darling Downs Hotel was replaced with the current building.

Sandy Creek Provisional School on 13 May 1872. The school and residence were built by W. Wallace and H. Marshall for £304/10/0. In 1929, it became Allan State School. It closed in December 1967.

St Matthew's Anglican Church was opened on 17 November 1901. It closed in 1969 and the church building was relocated to the Slade School in Warwick.

The South Western railway opened from Warwick to Thane on 1 July 1904 with Allan railway station () serving the local area. As at December 2019, Allan railway station is designated as an abandoned railway station.

In the , Allan had a population of 87 people.

Big Phil in the Septic Tank! NIce one Phil
The Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government, Mr.
Phil Hogan, T.D., today (17 December 2012) announced a grant scheme to provide financial assistance to households whose septic tanks and other domestic waste water treatment systems, require remediation or upgrading following inspection under the Water Services (Amendment) Act 2012.
Inspections are expected to commence in 2013 and will be based on a
national inspection plan currently being finalised by the Environmental Protection Agency. All domestic septic tanks and other waste water systems should be registered not later than 1st February 2013 on www.ProtectOurWater.ie or by post or in local authority offices. Waste water systems that that have not been registered by 1st February will also be subject to inspection.
Household Income Thresholds and Grant Rates for septic tanks grant scheme.
% Costs available
Maximum Grant
Up to €50,000
€50,001– €75,000
The Minister stated "I am very conscious of householders' concerns regarding some costs in repairing or upgrading their systems if they fail an inspection. Even though most of the deficiencies with septic tanks are likely to be remedied by routine maintenance including regular desludging, I am making this announcement today to reassure people that they will be assisted in meeting the costs of any remedial works that may be necessary arising from the implementation of the 2012 legislation. This is in keeping with the commitment I gave when the legislation was being debated in the Oireachtas this time last year. The scheme will provide a higher level of support to those on lower incomes."
"While the majority of septic tanks may be working well, and in those cases the householders should have nothing to worry about, those tanks that are not working properly may be polluting groundwater and contaminating our drinking water supplies and must be remediated. No one better understands the risks associated with malfunctioning on-site waste water treatment systems than the people who live in close proximity to them and source their drinking water from their own wells or from their local group water scheme. The key objective of this legislation is to enhance and protect public health and the
environment which will, in turn, benefit rural dwellers in terms of a better quality of life and better quality water. Protecting our environment will also have positive economic benefits for the tourism, recreation, agricultural and food-producing sectors, all of which rely on clean water. Clean water is vital for attracting inward investment and to support water hungry sectors such as pharmaceuticals and ICT.'
The Minister said a strict condition of eligibility for grant aid will be that the householder has registered their system by the prescribed date of 1 February 2013. The Minister stated "It will be a condition for eligibility for financial assistance under the scheme that householders comply with the legal requirement to register their system by 1 February 2013 on www.ProtectOurWater.ie." To date 290,000 people (58%) have registered their systems. Census 2011 indicates that there are about 497,000 septic tanks and similar systems in Ireland.
The Minister said that the grant assistance will only be available to householders whose systems have been inspected by their local authority and are found to be in need of remediation. The Minister stressed that householders will be notified in writing in advance by their local authority if their system is to be inspected and he advised that, for safety reasons, householders should always ask for evidence of identification from people calling to their doors.
The Minister also announced that he is increasing the grant for Group
Sewerage Schemes to €6,500 per house or 75% of the cost of the scheme, whichever is the lesser. The current rate of grant available for group sewerage schemes is €2,031.58 per house or 75% of the cost of the scheme, whichever is the lesser.
The Minister stated that he proposes, in the first instance, to carry out a number of pilot schemes based on an increased grant level. "My
Department will be asking local authorities to include in their requests for funding under the 2013 Rural Water Programme proposals for group sewerage schemes which might be viable based on an increased grant" the Minister said. He added that the selection of the pilot schemes and related funding arrangements will be completed as soon as possible after proposals have been received from local authorities in 2013.
The provision of financial assistance for this grant scheme is being made in the Rural Water Programme 2013. Local Authorities will be asked to prioritise their proposals, paying particular regard to the public health and environmental benefits that would accrue taking in to account the estimated costs.


This is a chronology of activities by the Continuity Irish Republican Army (CIRA), an Irish republican paramilitary group. The group started operations in 1994, after the Provisional Irish Republican Army began a ceasefire.
Note: All actions listed took place within Northern Ireland, unless stated otherwise.
19 December: The CIRA detonated a 2 lb semtex bomb in Enniskillen.
6 January: The Irish Republican Publicity Bureau issued a statement saying 'a reborn Irish Republican Army had emerged led by the 'Continuity Army Council'".
13 July: The CIRA claimed responsibility for exploding a 1,200 lb car bomb outside Killyhevlin Hotel in Enniskillen, County Fermanagh during a Catholic wedding reception. The blast caused serious damage and injured 17 people as they were being evacuated from the hotel.
29 September: The CIRA claimed responsibility for abandoning a 250 lb car bomb in Belfast. Security forces made the device safe using a controlled explosion.
21 November: The CIRA claimed responsibility for planting a 600 lb bomb in Derry. It failed to explode and was made safe by the security forces.
31 July : The CIRA planted a bomb (estimated at between 500 and 1,000 lb) in the grounds of Carrybridge Hotel near Lisbellaw, County Fermanagh. It was defused by the British Army.
9 August: The CIRA planted a hoax van bomb on Craigavon Bridge in Derry, shortly before the start of the Apprentice Boys' parade through the city. Disturbances broke out during the march when loyalist bandsmen broke ranks to attack nationalist residents who were watching the parade.
16 September: The CIRA claimed responsibility for exploding a 400 lbs van bomb outside the Royal Ulster Constabulary (RUC) base in Markethill, County Armagh. The bombing happened a day after Sinn Féin joined the political negotiations which led to the Good Friday Agreement.
30 October: The CIRA claimed responsibility for planting a holdall bomb in an office of a government building in Derry. The bag contained a quantity of Semtex and petrol, but failed to detonate properly.
20 November: The CIRA planted a small bomb behind Belfast City Hall. The Progressive Unionist Party claimed the device was aimed at their ground floor office.
6 January: A 500 lb car bomb was defused by the security forces in the centre of Banbridge, County Down. A telephoned warning had been sent.
24 January: Following a telephoned warning, a car bomb exploded outside the 'River Club' on Factory Road in Enniskillen, County Fermanagh. The building was extensively damaged, but there were no injuries. It is believed the CIRA was responsible.
20 February: Following a telephoned warning, a 500 lb car bomb exploded outside the RUC base in Moira, County Down. Seven RUC officers and four civilians were hurt. The blast caused widespread damage.
23 February: Following a telephoned warning, a 300 lb car bomb exploded near the RUC base on Edward Street in Portadown, County Armagh. The blast caused widespread damage but no injuries.
20 March: A bomb was left in the Northern Bank on Guildhall Square, Derry, and the area was cleared for four hours while the British Army defused it. The CIRA claimed responsibility and said a Republican had tried to stop the CIRA members from planting the bomb.
4 May: There was an attempted mortar attack on Grosvenor Road RUC base in Belfast. One of the mortars fell short of the target and the other exploded in its launch tube.
9 May: There was a mortar attack on the RUC base in Belleek, County Fermanagh. The mortars fell short of their target and one exploded as the RUC was clearing the area. There were no injuries.
15 May: A car and trailer bomb were abandoned in Kinawley, County Fermanagh. The British Army recovered and made safe two mortars, containing between 100 lb and 150 lb of explosives. It is believed the CIRA was responsible.

Q: wxPython: Drawing on top of a GenStaticBitmap I would like to take a screenshot of my monitor and draw a box on it by clicking and dragging my mouse. In order to listen to mouse events, I use GenStaticBitmap from wx.lib.statbmp instead of just StaticBitmap. This is the code I have so far for my "drawing window" class:
def __init__(self, parent = None, id=wx.ID_ANY):
    wx.Frame.__init__(self, parent, id, size = wx.DisplaySize())

    #Grab a screenshot and create GenStaticBitmap with it
    with mss() as sct:
        monitor = sct.monitors[1]
        img = sct.grab(monitor)
        width, height = img.size
    img = Image.frombytes("RGB", img.size, img.bgra, "raw", "BGRX")
    img = wx.Bitmap.FromBuffer(width, height, img.tobytes())
    self.bmp = wxbmp.GenStaticBitmap(self, ID=wx.ID_ANY, bitmap=img)

    self.bmp.Bind(wx.EVT_LEFT_DOWN, self.on_mouse_click)
    self.bmp.Bind(wx.EVT_MOTION, self.on_move)
    self.bmp.Bind(wx.EVT_LEFT_UP, self.exit)
    self.bmp.Bind(wx.EVT_PAINT, self.OnPaint)
    self.Bind(wx.EVT_KEY_DOWN, self.exit)

    self.ShowFullScreen(True)

    self.SetCursor(wx.Cursor(wx.CURSOR_CROSS))

def OnPaint(self, event):
    if self.p1 is None or self.p2 is None:
        return
    dc = wx.PaintDC(self.bmp)
    dc.SetPen(wx.Pen('red', 1))
    dc.SetBrush(wx.TRANSPARENT_BRUSH)
    dc.DrawRectangle(self.p1.x, self.p1.y, self.p2.x - self.p1.x, self.p2.y - self.p1.y)

def on_mouse_click(self, event):
    self.p1 = event.GetPosition()

def on_move(self, event):
    if event.Dragging() and event.LeftIsDown():
        self.p2 = event.GetPosition()
        self.bmp.Refresh()

def exit(self, event):
    self.Destroy()

which was adapted from How to select a rectangle of the screen to capture by dragging mouse on transparent background with wxPython?. The problem is that every rectangle drawn to the screen remains trailing behind the current rectangle, on top of the fact that the fill of the rectangle seems to be black instead of transparent. If I do dc.Clear(), that fixes the drawing, but gets rid of the underlying bitmap. This code works fine if I'm simply drawing to a frame without a bitmap. I have tried using wx.MemoryDC([my bitmap]), drawing in there, then doing self.bmp.SetBitmap([my bitmap]) in OnPaint(), but that doesn't seem to be working at all. Any advice is appreciated!

A: Big thanks to Igor. The following is the new "drawing window" class, which seems to be working well.
def __init__(self, parent=None, id=wx.ID_ANY):
    wx.Frame.__init__(self, parent, id, size=wx.DisplaySize())

    #Grab a screenshot and create GenStaticBitmap with it
    with mss() as sct:
        monitor = sct.monitors[1]
        img = sct.grab(monitor)
        width, height = img.size
    img = Image.frombytes("RGB", img.size, img.bgra, "raw", "BGRX")
    img = wx.Bitmap.FromBuffer(width, height, img.tobytes())
    self.bmp = wxbmp.GenStaticBitmap(self, ID=wx.ID_ANY, bitmap=img)
    self.overlay = wx.Overlay()

    self.bmp.Bind(wx.EVT_LEFT_DOWN, self.on_mouse_click)
    self.bmp.Bind(wx.EVT_MOTION, self.on_move)
    self.bmp.Bind(wx.EVT_LEFT_UP, self.exit)
    self.Bind(wx.EVT_KEY_DOWN, self.exit)

    self.ShowFullScreen(True)

    self.SetCursor(wx.Cursor(wx.CURSOR_CROSS))

def on_mouse_click(self, event):
    self.p1 = event.GetPosition()

def on_move(self, event):
    if event.Dragging() and event.LeftIsDown():
        self.p2 = event.GetPosition()

        dc = wx.ClientDC(self.bmp)
        odc = wx.DCOverlay(self.overlay, dc)
        odc.Clear()

        dc.SetPen(wx.Pen('red', 1))
        dc.SetBrush(wx.TRANSPARENT_BRUSH)
        dc.DrawRectangle(self.p1.x, self.p1.y, self.p2.x - self.p1.x, self.p2.y - self.p1.y)

def exit(self, event):
    self.Destroy()

Q: How can I give the automatically generated y-axis values on bar charts in Chart.JS commas? I am adding commas to my data values like so:
ctx.fillText(addCommas(dataset.data[i]), model.x, y_pos);
. . .
function addCommas(nStr) {
    nStr += '';
    x = nStr.split('.');
    x1 = x[0];
    x2 = x.length > 1 ? '.' + x[1] : '';
    var rgx = /(\d+)(\d{3})/;
    while (rgx.test(x1)) {
        x1 = x1.replace(rgx, '$1' + ',' + '$2');
    }
    return x1 + x2;
}

...but the "contextual" values on the y axis of the bar chart are "raw" (no commas) as can be seen here:

How can I get those values to be more human-friendly, too, by adding commas so as to read:
1,900,000
1,800,000
1,700,000
1,600,000
1,500,000

?

A: Using your hand-made addCommas function should do the trick :
options: {
    scales: {
        yAxes: [{
            ticks: {
                userCallback: function(item) {
                    return addCommas(item);
                },
            }
        }]
    }
}

Rob van Eijk Discusses Trends in European Privacy Discussions
Rob van Eijk
Managing Director for Europe
About Rob
Blogs by Rob
We're talking to FPF senior policy experts about their work on important privacy issues. Today, Rob van Eijk, FPF's Managing Director for Europe, is sharing his perspective on FPF's EU work, differences between U.S. and EU privacy frameworks, and more.
Prior to serving in his position as Managing Director for Europe at FPF, Rob worked at the Dutch Data Protection Authority (DPA) for nearly 10 years. He represented the Dutch DPA in international meetings and as a technical expert in court. He also represented the European Data Protection Authorities, assembled as the Article 29 Working Party, in the multi-stakeholder negotiations of the World Wide Web Consortium on Do Not Track. Rob is a privacy technologist with a PhD from Leiden Law School focusing on online advertising, specifically real-time bidding.
Tell us about yourself – what led you to be involved in privacy and FPF?
I first got into privacy at the end of 2009 at a time when the retention time of data from Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR)-cameras in the Netherlands were being actively discussed. Back then, I was doing contract work in computer forensics and project management. This was about a year after I had sold my company, BLAEU Business Intelligence BV – where I took care of the computer operations of small and medium sized enterprises – after running it successfully for nine years
While working as a contractor, I found out that the Dutch Data Protection Authority was looking for a technologist. Within three weeks of applying, I was part of the "Internet Team" that was charged with formal investigations into compliance with the Privacy Directive 95/46/EC in the private sector. At the Dutch DPA, my role was, to lead on-site inspections and collect evidence or to explain technology to people in the organization. I had a lot of fun in that role and stayed at the Dutch DPA for nearly 10 years.
The Dutch DPA made it possible for me to do a doctoral thesis alongside my work. Eventually, after finishing my PhD research, Jules invited me to present the results in an FPF Masterclass. It turned out that Jules and FPF were looking for someone on the ground in Europe, which led to my current role as FPF's Managing Director for Europe.
How would you describe your role at FPF?
I am managing director of FPF operations in Europe, where we're working to build a data protection community. Most of the work today is to ensure that everyone – particularly the Data Protection Authorities, academics, and civil society groups – understand the added value of a neutral platform that the Future of Privacy Forum provides. FPF is a non-profit membership organization with many companies that have unique privacy questions, whether related to ad-tech or new laws and technologies being developed.
Another aspect of my role is ensuring that we are a respected voice in the media. We do a lot of media outreach and engagement – for instance, addressing questions around the implications of RFID implants on what it really means to be human. I also explain to what extent there are implications of certain laws or technologies on the rights and freedoms of the individual, while being mindful of the different legislative frameworks under which companies operate. I see my role as one that is intended to guide both the Future of Privacy Forum and our member organizations through the most important privacy issues and questions, cooperating with the academics and regulators, and facilitating a neutral space for interesting, topical discussions.
The legal framework for privacy in Europe is different from the U.S. framework. Could you explain some of those differences and their impacts?
In Europe, we have a human rights-based data protection regulation framework, whereas the US laws are based on the notion of informational privacy as defined by Westin. In the EU, the human right to privacy is considered to be a real human right, and that thinking trickles down to the way that we talk about the concepts of freedom, privacy, security, and autonomy.
Informational privacy is focused on information control. In the EU, control is based, for example, around the protection of personal information and what is yours – protection of the integrity of your body, your phone, the integrity of the technology that's in your connected car. There's a lot of data being generated today and some of that data can be connected in such a way that it creates a comprehensive picture of your life, which needs protection. Thus, moving from the idea that privacy is a human right, we can create clear boundaries related to the context of information that must be protected, not just in principles like necessity or proportionality, but also in a societal context. The impact of certain types of contexts varies, as do the requirements for a legal basis: certain categories of data – like health data – require a high bar for informed consent, and other types of data – like biometric data – are prohibited from being processed, unless there is an exemption such as a clear law that enables certain processes.
What is the impact of different legal frameworks for a developing technology like artificial intelligence and machine learning?
AI and ML are interesting technological developments that show the implications of having different privacy frameworks in an interconnected world. Big questions around bias and discrimination in data via AI systems, and also the harms of these technologies, are top of mind in academic, policy, and economic discussions in Europe and reflect European priorities and thinking in each of those areas, but don't necessarily reflect the thinking elsewhere. The outcomes of those discussions – both in Europe and elsewhere – will influence how AI/ML technology is developed and regulated in different parts of the world. It's always important to keep in mind that technology is not developed in isolation here in Europe, so we are dependent on small groups of specialized companies that provide these technologies globally and must interact with a variety of jurisdictions and frameworks.
One of the consequences of having different legal frameworks around the world is the impact on innovation in certain markets. Different legal frameworks can create big complications in terms of compliance for companies and lead to a different use of technology. For instance, in the advertising space, we've seen that the information requirements have changed in relation to evolving privacy regulations in different regions, with different thresholds for consent. The consequence of those differences is that the EU experience of browsing websites is very different from the U.S. experience. In that way, it's fascinating to see how the same advertising technology can lead to vastly different experiences. That is a concrete example of how technology shapes the society based on cultural values around privacy.
The impact of different legal frameworks was placed square in the center of the privacy debate when the Court of Justice of the European Union handed down its judgment in the Schrems II case. An important question in this debate is: how do we strike the right balance between the security of a state and the protection of its civilians, a legitimate interest for companies and its customers to benefit from big data, and the fundamental right to privacy and freedom of people?
You started as a tech expert and became a policy expert. What advantages does that give you? How is that helpful to the overall conversation about tech policy?
I studied electrical engineering because I really wanted to understand the world around us. Later, I got a master's degree from the Leiden Institute of Advanced Computer Science. That technical background provided me with the ability to bridge hardware (understanding how information is collected at the hardware level) and software (specifically, how that information is translated to data by software), and then be able to follow the data flow to servers and platforms.
Being able to zoom in and out on the data helps in being able to be clear about policy questions and to hash out the real risks from a data privacy perspective. Then, once a consensus around the key risks and issues is developed, we can think about ways to mitigate those risks, not just in terms of minimization or prevention, but also understanding that certain risks can be positive and can create opportunities. From the policy perspective, it's valuable to understand what a bottom-up, data-driven world actually means, what the data looks like, how software works, and how the components in software and hardware work.
What do you see happening next? Key topics you'll be working on over the next year or so?
In Europe, we're closely following the topics that are on the work program of the European Data Protection Board and the European Data Protection Supervisor in terms of guidance that they provide. We're also closely following the 2020 work program of the European Commission.
One of those topics, cookies, is close to my heart. E-privacy has become an extremely important topic, as a number of different data-driven contexts are impacted by new privacy rules governing the use of connected technologies.
We also go beyond topics and issues that are connected to personal data – we address uses of machine-generated data that are not necessarily personal data in the legal sence. Therefore, it's important that we track policy developments related to the free flow of non-personal data, which also happens to be an issue that is top of mind for the European Commission at the moment.

Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs
Hilary Benn responds to review into handling of foot and mouth disease
DEPARTMENT FOR ENVIRONMENT, FOOD AND RURAL AFFAIRS News Release (75/08) issued by The Government News Network on 11 March 2008
Environment Secretary Hilary Benn today welcomed a report into last summer's Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) outbreak.
Foot and Mouth Disease 2007: A Review and Lessons Learned was written by Dr Iain Anderson, who carried out a review into the handling of the 2001 FMD outbreak.
It commends the Government's overall handling of the 2007 outbreak, stating that "many of the lessons identified in the 2002 report had been acted upon and performance, taken as a whole, was much improved." It concludes that "on balance, the positive easily outweighs the negative", but it does identify deficiencies that need to be addressed.
Responding in a written ministerial statement, Mr Benn said that the Government would carefully consider the report's recommendations and work with partners to decide what further steps were needed to ensure that we are as prepared as possible to prevent and control animal disease outbreaks in the future.
Thanking Dr Anderson and his team for their work, Mr Benn said:
"Many of Dr Anderson's recommendations encourage us to build on the improvements that have already been made; for example in strengthening communications, assessing and managing risk and exercising and testing contingency plans. I agree that even when things have gone well, we can always do better in future.
"As well as finding much progress compared to 2001, Dr Anderson's review also points to things that didn't go right and where further action is recommended.
"In relation to Pirbright and the Institute for Animal Health, we have already taken action. The Government accepted all of the recommendations in Sir Bill Callaghan's independent review of the regulatory framework for the handling of animal pathogens published in December 2007, including that responsibility for the regulation of animal pathogens should transfer to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).
"Defra is working closely with the HSE and other departments, to implement all three phases of the work recommended by Sir Bill Callaghan. The formal legal transfer of SAPO enforcement and inspection responsibilities is well underway and is nearing completion.
"In addition, following the review of biosecurity at Pirbright conducted by Professor Brian Spratt in August 2007, the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) asked Sir John Beringer to undertake a review of the governance, funding and risk management of the Institute for Animal Health. Sir John is due to report to the BBSRC in April 2008.
"We now know that when the decision was taken to lift restrictions on 8 September 2007 the FMD outbreak was not over. As Dr Anderson's report states, the decision was based on a risk assessment that took into account all available epidemiological and veterinary knowledge, and the requirements set down by the FMD Directive had been met. The mandatory 30 days without any further outbreaks had occurred and based on previous experience, there was no reason to expect any further outbreaks of the disease. The decision was taken with the agreement and participation of the European Commission and other Member States.
"I therefore believe that the decision taken at the time was appropriate in the light of what we then knew. We will however look carefully at how we communicate disease freedom, where there is always some degree of uncertainty, in future.
"A further area of concern raised in Dr Anderson's report was the performance of the information and data management systems that are needed during a disease outbreak. We have not made the progress we would have liked in this area despite considerable efforts. However, as part of Animal Health's Business Reform Programme a new information and data management system is being implemented. This will deliver improvements between now and 2011."
Mr Benn stressed that the fact that the World Animal Health Organisation (OIE) has now officially declared that the UK has regained freedom from FMD without vaccination, was the result of co-operation and partnership between Defra, Animal Health and local authorities, in addition to delivery partners and the farming and food chain industries.
Mr Benn said:
"I would like to pay tribute to all of those organisations who gave their time and experience and were an integral part of the response to the disease.
"Farmers, as well as Government, are well placed to take effective action to prevent the spread of disease, and that is why we are continuing to work closely with the farming sector and others on responsibility and cost sharing.
"The aim is to ensure that both Government and others have contingency plans in place to deal with disease outbreaks."
He added that even when confined to a small number of infected premises in a limited geographical area, as in 2007, the impact of an FMD outbreak can be far-reaching on the livestock sector, the food chain and the wider community.

Peace of Mind in Earthquake Country, the best-selling book which for thirty years has helped homeowners everywhere protect their properties and loved ones from the devastating effects of earthquakes, is now completely updated and greatly expanded.
Peace of Mind in Earthquake Country, the best-selling book which for thirty years has helped homeowners everywhere protect their properties and loved ones from the devastating effects of earthquakes, is now completely updated and greatly expanded. The new edition reflects the latest advances in earthquake science, engineering, and financial management techniques for homeowners, home buyers, and businesses in earthquake country. In this comprehensive resource, earthquake engineering and risk management experts Peter Yanev and Andrew Thompson, who together have more than sixty years of combined experience and have investigated more than 100 earthquakes around the world, demystify the confusing technical aspects of earthquakes and present a do-it-yourself approach to home and business preparedness. Here, they explain in accessible text earthquake-related concepts such as "liquefaction" and dangerous "soft-stories," then present easy-to-follow steps to understand and judge your risk as a homeowner, the soundness of your property, your possible financial risk, your insurance options, and how to inexpensively strengthen your home or office. The book explains earthquake risks to anyone in California, Washington, Oregon, Alaska, Utah, the Central US, and more. It provides informative graphs and diagrams, hundreds of photographs, maps of existing and suspected fault lines, lessons learned from past earthquake, and the probabilities of future earthquakes. Chapters are devoted exclusively to earthquake risk management and insurance. Most importantly, the book clearly explains what you can do to protect yourself and your property. This is a necessary guide for anyone living in earthquake country. Each copy of this book is autographed by the author, Peter Yanev.


This fire rescue station, located at Naval Support Activity Lakehurst, is part of a joint military base housing U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines. Established in 1921 as a Navy airship facility, the base is most well known as the location of the Hindenburg disaster.
We performed both the steel fabrication and erection for this project. All the steel, including the complex hip and valley roof framing members, was produced entirely in our large Southampton facility.
As the fabrication of each section was completed, the steel was shipped to the site and erected while the next portion was being fabricated in our shop. This simultaneous process of fabrication and erection resulted in maximum efficiency of product delivery and shortened project scheduling.

Tiverton and Honiton is a constituency in Devon, England. The current MP is Richard Foord of the Liberal Democrats, elected at a by-election on 23 June 2022.

Prior to the by-election, the constituency had always returned a Conservative MP since its creation in 1997. The by-election was held following the resignation of Neil Parish after he was caught watching pornography in the House of Commons chamber (Parish himself admitted to doing so on two separate occasions).

Constituency profile
This is a mostly rural constituency covering a broad sweep between Exmoor to the north and Lyme Bay to the south, including the towns of Tiverton and Honiton and their surrounding villages (which include extensive farmland, rivers popular with kayakers and part of the Blackdown Hills). Some residents commute to Exeter. Residents' wealth is around average for the UK.

Boundaries

1997–2010: The District of Mid Devon except the wards of Taw, Taw Vale, and West Creedy, and the District of East Devon wards of Broadclyst, Clystbeare, Clyst Valley, Exe Valley, Honiton St Michael's, Honiton St Paul's, Otterhead, Ottery St Mary Rural, Ottery St Mary Town, Patteson, and Tale Vale.

2010–present: The District of Mid Devon wards of Canonsleigh, Castle, Clare and Shuttern, Cranmore, Cullompton North, Cullompton Outer, Cullompton South, Halberton, Lower Culm, Lowman, Upper Culm, and Westexe, and the District of East Devon wards of Axminster Rural, Axminster Town, Beer and Branscombe, Coly Valley, Dunkeswell, Feniton and Buckerell, Honiton St Michael's, Honiton St Paul's, Newbridges, Otterhead, Seaton, Tale Vale, Trinity, and Yarty.

Boundary changes for 2010
Parliament accepted the Boundary Commission's Fifth Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies which slightly altered this constituency for the 2010 general election, and gave Devon 12 seats instead of 11.  Some wards of Mid Devon District in this seat were transferred to the new Central Devon constituency; however, parts of the East Devon constituency, including the towns of Axminster and Seaton, were gained in return.

History
The seat came about when the town of Honiton from the Honiton constituency was added to the Tiverton constituency in 1997. Both were long-established seats, with the former having existed from 1640 and the latter from 1615. Both elected two Members of Parliament until the 1884 Reform Act reduced the number for both to one and their area was widened to cover two divisions of the county under the Redistribution of Seats Act 1885.

Prominent holders of the seats in the 19th century included Whig politician Joseph Locke, a railway pioneer, who was MP for Honiton, and Lord Palmerston, who, while MP for Tiverton, served as the first Prime Minister from the newly formed Liberal Party (1855–1858 and 1859–1865).

The area served by the constituency had not been represented by a party other than the Conservative Party in Westminster since 1923. Following the 2022 Tiverton and Honiton by-election, the Liberal Democrats gained the seat from the Conservatives.

AI Narratives: A History of Imaginative Thinking about Intelligent Machines / Stephen Cave, Kanta Dihal, Sarah Dillon
'Artificial intelligence (AI)' is a loaded term, rife with connotative contradiction that inspires debate, disagreement, and disillusion. But what is AI, really? How have our expectations of computational capability, and even a robot Armageddon, come to be? Why does it matter how we talk about increasingly sophisticated technology, not just in expository prose, but also in fiction?
Wem & Myddle, then and again / Peter Edwards
In 1974, David Hey published his book on Myddle in Shropshire, a study based upon his doctoral research at Leicester University. One might wonder how a proud South Yorkshireman had even heard of an insignificant North Shropshire parish, let alone decided to carry out research on it. Fortunately, his supervisor, Professor W. G.
The Cult of Thomas Becket: History and Historiography through Eight Centuries / Kay Brainerd Slocum
Thomas Becket, archbishop of Canterbury (1120–70) is one of the iconic figures in British history – a man who most people have not only heard of, but also have an opinion on. Yet, despite the brutality of his murder, such opinions are not always positive. In fact, this medieval archbishop is an unusually divisive figure, and always has been.
The Politics of Counsel in England and Scotland, 1286-1707 / ed. Jacqueline Rose
As a concept and as a practice, the provision and reception of counsel was a crucial cornerstone of the polities of medieval and early modern Britain. Those in positions of authority, whether king, regent, ruling council or mayor, were expected to hear virtuous advice. This would, it was fervently hoped, guide the course of governance and ensure just rule.
The Grass Roots of English History: Local Societies before the Industrial Revolution / David Hey
I knew David Hey for 30 years, and it is with great sadness that I offer this review of his last and posthumous book. I recall well how I first met him. It was Easter 1985 and I was on my way to the British Agricultural History Society conference to give a paper. I hadn't been to that conference before, nor had I ever given a paper to a conference (as opposed to a seminar).
The Records of the Parliaments of Scotland to 1707 / Keith Brown
This digital edition of the acts of the Scottish parliament is the latest product of a long tradition. The acts have been published in various ways over the centuries. In the Middle Ages, acts were sent as writs to sheriffs, with an order to make them known. In the 15th century, acts also began to be proclaimed publicly in head burghs.
History of the County of Somerset. Volume XI: Queen Camel and the Cadburys / ed. Mary Siraut
How fortunate are historians of that broad band of southern Somerset covered by seven topographical volumes of the Victoria County History (VCH) compared with those of most of the historic county for whom no such resource yet exists. It is the distant ideal of the complete set for Somerset that is most urgently required.

Fashionable Queens: Body - Power - Gender / eds. Eva Flicker, Monika Seidl
Essay collections are always a mixed bag, and this one is more muddled than most. The warning signs are clear. The volume is part of a series ominously titled 'Austrian Studies in English'. Six of the 15 essays were papers presented at a 2010 conference of the same name at the University of Vienna.
