Streets Roots to be honored as Rotarians address homelessness
Posted on: Friday, 27 May 2016
Portland Pearl Rotarians' emphasis on homelessness continues Tuesday, June 7, when the club honors the Street Roots organization with its annual Community Vision Award.
The 7:00 a.m. breakfast and program will feature both Street Roots Director Israel Bayer and Multnomah County Commission Chair Deborah Kafoury addressing the question, "Fixing Homelessness in our Hometown."
Rotarians and guests will also hear a brief testimonial from one of the Street Roots newspaper vendors, Sandra Hahn, on how the opportunity to sell the weekly newspaper paper has helped turn her life around. Bayer will accept the PPRC award on behalf of Street Roots.
"Pearl Rotary has tried to play a part in helping the homeless through serving and preparing a monthly meal for men at Transition Projects and more recently in supporting p:ear's outreach to homeless youth," said club President Lori Beight. "Congratulating Street Roots reinforces Rotary's parallel mission to make a difference in our community."
Street Roots vendors sell newspapers in the Pearl at locations including Albina Community Bank, Powell's, REI, Lovejoy Bakery and Pearl Bakery. The organization's mission "creates income opportunities for people experiencing homelessness and poverty by producing a newspaper and other media that are catalysts for individual and social change."
"Thanks so much for this opportunity," Bayer said. "We are so excited about this and very humbled."
Kafoury, the commissioners' chair, has a long history of helping families in crisis, starting as a child watching her mother open their home to women escaping domestic violence, and continuing as a Multnomah County commissioner with her work to help families stay in their homes.
More recently, she has made good on her priority to fund housing and homelessness services. She has proposed eliminating 118 beds from the Inverness Jail and asked departments to take a 2 percent cut as an effort to spend $10 million in general fund money to help the homeless.
"The greatest challenge we face," said Kafoury in her March 18 state of the county speech, "is how to address the housing crisis in Multnomah County."
The Rotary event begins with a breakfast buffet in the second-floor conference room of the Ecotrust Building, 721 N.W. 9th, at 7 a.m. The program starts at 7:30 a.m. and is set to end at 8:30 a.m. Admission fee for Rotarians and each guest is $10.
RSVPs are necessary and seats can be reserved by emailing the club's vocational service director, Matt Mahaffy (matt@mahaffygroup.com), or committee members Don Barney (ogorman77@gmail.com) and Erika Wrenn (erika.wrenn@where-inc.com).

Contracture of the interosseous, lumbrical, or hypothenar muscles causes the fingers to stiffen and the hand to become deformed and functionally disabled. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] Intrinsic plus hand is the result of imbalance between intrinsic muscles and comparatively weak extrinsic muscles. The frequency of intrinsic plus hand is not known.
The intrinsic plus position is otherwise known as the safe position for hand splinting. The hand can be immobilized in this position for long periods of time without developing as much stiffness as would occur if the digits were positioned differently. In the intrinsic plus position, the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints are flexed at 60-70°, the interphalangeal (IP) joints are fully extended, and the thumb is in the fist projection. The wrist is held in extension at 10° less than maximal.
The reason why intrinsic plus is the safe position is that in this position, the MCP joints are in flexion and the IP joints are in full extension. The MCP joints recover well from flexion, and the IP joints recover well from extension on the basis of differences in the shape of the metacarpal head, volar plate, and collateral ligament anatomy (see Anatomy).
The metacarpal head is uniquely shaped in that it is ovoid in the sagittal plane, and it widens from the dorsal to the volar dimension. The collateral ligaments are eccentrically mounted dorsal to the axis of rotation of the MCP joint. This anatomy causes variable degrees of tightness on the collateral ligaments based on the position of the joint by a camlike effect. When the joint is in extension, the collateral ligaments are lax. In flexion, the collateral ligaments span a greater distance and are tight (see the image below).
The metacarpal head is uniquely shaped in that it is ovoid in the sagittal plane, and it widens from the dorsal to the volar dimension. The collateral ligaments are eccentrically mounted dorsal to the axis of rotation of the metacarpophalangeal joint. This anatomy causes variable degrees of tightness on the collateral ligaments based on the position of the joint by a camlike effect. When the joint is in extension, the collateral ligaments are lax. In flexion, the collateral ligaments span a greater distance and are tight.
In addition, the MCP joint is curved in two planes to permit abduction, adduction, and rotation, as well as flexion and extension in an abbreviated ball-and-socket configuration. In flexion, bone surface area contact is greater than in extension, producing a more stable joint.
Proximal IP (PIP) joint collateral ligaments originate close to the axis of rotation, providing a smaller change in length with joint position and providing lateral stability. The PIP joint ranges in only one plane, and its trochlear shape also adds to its lateral stability (see the image below).
Proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint collateral ligaments originate close to the axis of rotation, providing a smaller change in length with joint position and providing lateral stability. The PIP joint ranges in only 1 plane, and its trochlear shape also adds to its lateral stability.
The intrinsic musculature, composed of the interossei and the lumbrical muscles, acts on the hand to flex the MCP joints and extend the IP joints. The interossei also act to abduct and adduct the fingers.  There are seven interosseous muscles: four dorsal and three (or four) volar (palmar).  These muscles lie on either side of the metacarpals. The dorsal interossei are abductors, whereas the volar interossei are adductors.
Each dorsal interosseous muscle, except the one lying on the ulnar side of the middle finger, has two muscle heads, one superficial and one deep. The superficial head originates most dorsally and inserts by way of a medial tendon onto the lateral tubercle at the base of the proximal phalanx. Therefore, the superficial head abducts and weakly flexes the proximal phalanx.
The deep head of the dorsal interosseous muscle forms a lateral tendon or lateral band at the base of the proximal phalanx. These lateral bands are joined by the lateral slips of the extensor tendon to form the conjoined lateral band at the level of the PIP joint.
The conjoined lateral bands on either side of the finger then join at the distal end of the middle phalanx to form the terminal extensor tendon. The terminal tendon inserts onto the base of the distal phalanx and serves to extend it. Each lateral band at the level of the middle of the proximal phalanx sends off fibers, which arch dorsally to join each other on the dorsum of the finger. These fibers flex the proximal phalanx.
Oblique (spiral) fibers also originate from the lateral bands more distally and insert onto the lateral tubercles at the base of the middle phalanx. These oblique fibers extend the middle phalanx. Therefore, the deep head of the dorsal interosseous muscle acts to flex and weakly abduct the proximal phalanx and extend the middle and distal phalanges.
The volar interossei each only have one muscle head and form the ulnar lateral band of the index finger and the radial lateral band of the ring and little finger.
The hypothenar muscles function similarly to the interossei for the small finger. The abductor digiti quinti (ADQ) function is similar to that of the superficial head of a dorsal interosseous muscle. The flexor digiti quinti brevis (FDQB) functions similarly to the deep head of a dorsal interosseous muscle, forming the ulnar lateral band. The opponens digiti quinti (ODQ) is a third hypothenar muscle that serves to flex and supinate the fifth metacarpal.
The lumbrical muscles arise from the flexor digitorum profundus (FDP) tendons in the palm and join the radial lateral band at the middle of the proximal phalanx. The lumbricals extend the PIP and distal IP (DIP) joints and assist in flexing the MCP joints.
The IP volar plate is a more rigid cartilaginous structure that does not collapse but glides with movement. It is attached to the proximal phalanx only by the proximal checkrein ligaments; therefore, the rigid IP volar plate can slide proximally and distally with joint motion to protect the joint (see the image below).
Edema is the initial response to any insult to the hand and leads to adverse sequelae. Joint stiffness develops as intra-articular hematoma and fluid accumulate within the synovial space, distending the capsule. Increased fluid content within the articular capsule and collateral ligaments effectively shortens these structures, favoring extension.
Edema is the initial response to any insult to the hand and leads to adverse sequelae. Joint stiffness develops as intra-articular hematoma and fluid accumulate within the synovial space, distending the capsule. Increased fluid content within the articular capsule and collateral ligaments effectively shortens these structures, favoring extension. The fluid in the joint space also serves to hydraulically drive the MCP joints into extension.
In extension, the joint is able to accommodate this increased fluid capacity. As the MCP joints extend, the flexor tension on the IP joints increases and the extensor tension decreases. This causes the PIP and DIP joints to flex. The resultant late deformity is the intrinsic negative (or minus) hand, consisting of MCP joint extension, IP joint flexion, thumb adduction, and wrist flexion.
With injury, checkreins form at the IP joints (see the image below). Checkreins are collagenous bands connecting the lateral sides of the proximal volar plate to the assembly lines on the volar lateral surfaces of the phalanx. Assembly lines are the two ridges along the volar lateral surfaces of the phalanx, to which are attached volar ligamentous structures such as the flexor sheath, the Cleland and Grayson ligaments, and the oblique retinacular ligaments of Landsmeer.

Compartment syndrome is the usual cause of posttraumatic intrinsic contractures owing to edema and ischemia. Hematoma and edema fill the interosseous muscle compartment and are trapped by the firm dorsal and volar interosseous fascia.  Capillary compression and venous stasis add to the congestion. As the edema subsides, fibrosis develops.
Compressive circular dressings can also impede venous drainage and lead to the development of myostatic contractures in the interossei. Finally, muscle necrosis and fibrosis may ensue with cases of severe and prolonged deep-space edema of the hand.
Excessive immobilization, trauma, inflammation, infection, tumor, central nervous system (CNS) disease, and joint destruction are all causes of joint stiffness and intrinsic contractures. [10, 11] Decreased blood supply to the hand as a result of injury or primary disease of the vessels of the upper extremity is a leading cause of intrinsic muscle contracture.
The prognosis for each patient is variable and depends on the severity of the contracture and the underlying cause of the contracture. The surgeon's objective is to restore structure and function to the contracted hand. The ultimate goal is to provide the patient maximal comfort and functional independence.

So we've been looking towards Stephanie and Tom's Dawn Ranch wedding for a long time and these guys exceeded all of our expectations! Their day was so beautiful, full of love and warmth. You could tell that Stephanie worked super hard and thought of every single detail to make the wedding theirs – from a custom made ring plate to the most beautiful and touching ceremony I've ever heard – the day was planned flawlessly.
Really lovely set of photos. I love the feel of the images.
cool wedding shoes competition/poll.. to see who's shoes are cooler!
i think there's an obvious winner for that contest. :) Purple peep-toe d'orsays with gunmetal and rhinestone detail?
Amazing pics for an amazing (and adorable) couple!!! Woohoo!
Wow you guys are great!! I am always impressed!


Intruder drills have been a part of keeping local schools safe for many years. But in light of attacks such as the tragedy last year at Sandy Hook Elementary in Connecticut, further precautions are being taken to ensure the safety of students and teachers.
Columbia superintendent Gina Segobiano said the Columbia Police Department, along with the school district, have always conducted annual intruder drills.
Because of this, Segobiano said CPD officers will begin conducting the drills at each school per the requirement, instead of rotating schools each year.
Segobiano said her school district has scheduled active shooter training for district staff on Oct. 11.
"The full staff will be in attendance to listen to Corey Zavorka from the tactical operations unit out of St. Louis speak about staff procedures for active shooters," she said.
After the initial training, building-level training will take place throughout the rest of October and November.
There are also plans to schedule an active shooter drill with the CPD for each individual school.
"We will also be scheduling a parent meeting to involve parents, engage in school safety conversation, and to inform our community of our efforts to- ward school safety," Segobiano said.
The Waterloo School District had similar meetings early in September to inform parents of the procedures that have and will be conducted.
At the Aug. 19 school board meeting, Waterloo superintendent Jim Helton reviewed the success of the intruder training and an informational session conducted by the Waterloo Police Department before the first day of school.
Though some procedures were up-to-date, Helton said there were some things they realized they could improve upon.
One of the first things the board looked at was how to better train school staff and prepare them for a threatening situation.
Helton said Waterloo reviewed the alert system, how they send the word out, and went over lockdowns and evacuation processes.
During the first two days before school began, all staff members were trained in a simulation-type setting where they had to react to a situation.
Jeff Prosise of the Waterloo Police Department and Zavorka and Mike Fumagalli of the St. Louis County Police Department led the training session.
Helton said viewpoints and methods on intruder drills and training have changed over the years to include a more proactive approach.
Helton cited the acronym "ALICE," which stands for alert, lockdown, inform, counter and evacuate. Those are the five key principles training officials feel empower teachers in a crisis situation.
He said the goal currently is to explain to parents how the staff is trained and to then integrate the methods into the different grade levels by their understanding of intruders.
"Practice doesn't make perfect, but perfect practice makes perfect," Helton said.
The 2013-14 school district budget was approved, after the capital development board state grant update was added. "The total budget, because of that influx of CDB money, does make the district healthier, but it also is a false sense of hope because that money cannot be used for education funds," Helton said.
The board voted to begin dissolution of the Waterloo Junior High School "middle school concept" and plans to return to traditional junior high school scheduling for the 2014-15 school year. Helton said this approval is purely for financial reasons as of now.
As expected, the district's central office is moving to the junior high school, 302 Bellefontaine Drive, effective this Friday. The relocation is expected to save the district $32,000 per year. The district office had been located next to Morrison-Talbott Library at 219 Park Street for around 10 years.
The superintendent search continues. School board president Valerie Baxmeyer said there are about 25 candidates right now, with six or seven to be brought in for interviews.

Q: Core Data Fetch Request Bug I have an app I am building using Core Data. I have an inital load of all the Biking Structs using a Fetched Results Controller. I am then trying to just send a request to check for a specific Biking Struct using a fetch request but I am getting the error: Thread 1: EXC_BAD_ACCESS on the predicate line. I am just needing this request to check if a struct with a specific ID is saved or not. I am new to all this so forgive my ignorance! What am I doing wrong?
private let appDelegate = UIApplication.shared.delegate as! AppDelegate
private let context = (UIApplication.shared.delegate as! AppDelegate).persistentContainer.viewContext
private var fetchedRC: NSFetchedResultsController<Biking>!

private func refresh() {
    do {
        let request = Biking.fetchRequest() as NSFetchRequest<Biking>
        if query.isEmpty {
            request.predicate = NSPredicate(format: "bikingOwner == %@", note)

            let sort = NSSortDescriptor(key: #keyPath(Biking.buttonText), ascending: true)

This complete pro DJ Booth is the one to have if you are looking to give your mobile disco the edge on your competitors with it's unique style and stunning looks and includes a lifetime warranty*!
This Gorilla DJ Booth system comes with a fitted white lycra cover which can be lit up from the back with a variety of different effects to create a one-of-a-kind setup and a unique focal point for your setup. Other features of this innovative stand system include integral support for the equipment shelf which comes in two sections for portability. A free carry bag is also included for easy transportation of the Gorilla DJ Booth System to-and-from gigs.
Any DJ will tell you that every gig is different and it is important to adapt to your environment. Luckily, the Gorilla DJ booth system is as versatile as you are and can be adapted to suit any event. The included white covering can be back-lit with LED cans or bars for subtle, solid colours, with single or multiple effects for a dynamic, eye-catching display or why not experiment with lasers, projection or other effects for a totally unique, high-impact appearance. In addition, an optional full overhead lighting bar kit is also available.
System includes: 4 sided folding DJ booth, shelf support cross bars, 2 piece shelf, carry bag, black and white lycra cover.
Received my new stand today less than 24 hours after ordering. Very easy to setup and nice and sturdy once unfolded. Good quality and a nice bag to pack it all into too!
Good design. It's quite big as well. Loads of space to put decks and a mixer on . Shelves are slightly thin So me personally will place an extra piece of wood under .. for the price you can't complain. The stand it's self is sturdy.
I ordered a DJ booth on Monday and it was here the next day, super fast! I got it to keep smelly people away from my gear! It's worked a treat! No more do I have dribbles from the unwashed public, even tho there was a manufacturing default on one of the covers, it was easily solved and the replacement came the next day. And it also works with ugly and stupid people as well, as they get Confused and walk away if you pop down out of site behind the booth!
Very happy with my new booth, so quick to put together and looks the business. I managed to attach my chauvet motion cloth to it combined with the black cloth, so pleased! Perfect for all occasions!
It's Perfect...with RGB ligth is amazing ...Best Price And Best Buyer...thx.
Very quick and simple to set up. Lycra cloths are very effective. Looks very professional and is a nice height to keep your equipment safe from people with drinks or wandering hands. I'm not sure what the maximum load is but it took my flight case with S4 and laptop etc no problem. There is slight springiness at the centre of the support bars which brace the two sides together (possible caused where each brace is in two interlocking parts). This might only be a problem if using vinyl TTs without flight cases and intend to do scratching and juggling. The bag allows you to get everything inside and I also put in my T-bars for my light tripods. All in all, very pleased with this purchase.
Rock solid booth, ideal for on the move DJ's. Don't spend a fortune on any fancy lights behind the white lycra, anything will do as it looks awesome anyway. Highly recommended purchase.
Takes a whole 45 seconds to set up... Extremely lightweight, sturdy and perfect for the mobile DJ. Looks professional and great to keep your work area tidy with holes in the shelves for cables. Ideal and perfect for every party DJ occasions!! Highly Recommended!!

WILL Press Release | WILL Files Amicus Brief With U.S. Supreme Court in Wisconsin Legislative Redistricting Case2017-04-252017-04-25https://www.will-law.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/will-logo-bevel-shadow_325x33.pngWisconsin Institute for Law and Libertyhttps://www.will-law.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/supreme.jpg200px200px
Legislature did not depart from traditional redistricting principles
April 25, 2017 – Milwaukee, WI – The Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty has filed an amicus brief urging the United States Supreme Court to review the decision of a divided three judge panel finding Wisconsin's 2011 legislative redistricting to be unconstitutional.
WILL argues that legislative redistricting is what courts call a "political question" and, therefore, "non-justiciable." The so-called "efficiency gap" relied on by the district court majority is nothing more than a presumption that the aggregate outcome of 99 races for the assembly ought to reflect the aggregate partisan vote in those races. But the most elementary understanding of simple mathematics and the nature of a legislature that is elected by geographic district reveals that this is not true. If the voters of one political party are more geographically concentrated than voters of the other, there will be no such proportionality.
It is undisputed that Democratic voters are more geographically concentrated than Republicans. While the district court majority believed that the legislature had acted to unfairly "maximize" the Republicans' natural advantage, there is no neutral principle for courts to determine how much of this advantage is "natural" and how much is "too much." If the district court decision stands, it will amount to a constitutional mandate to gerrymander for competitiveness. But distorting maps to remedy the natural disadvantage of one political party is every much a partisan act as gerrymandering to maximize that advantage.
This is particularly so where, as here, the legislature did not depart from traditional redistricting principles. The districts that were drawn were not unusually shaped. They were contiguous and compact. The district court majority found, in the words of the dissenting judge, a gerrymander without gerrymandering. WILL argues that, even if claims of a political gerrymander are justifiable, they should be rejected where a legislature has hewed to traditional redistricting principles.
The amicus brief can be found here.

Q: Omnetpp .ned file default value of parameter I'm trying to get familiar with Omnetpp, so I'm doing the TicToc example. But there I found a point I do not understand: Why does the default value of limit not work? Limit is always set to 5, only if I set it to an other value like I did it in Toc5.
Here my log from Txc5::initialize
Initializing module Tictoc5, stage 0
Tictoc5.tic: Initializing module Tictoc5.tic, stage 0
Tictoc5.tic: limit is 10
Tictoc5.tic: tic's counter is set to 10
Tictoc5.tic: Sending initial message
Tictoc5.toc: Initializing module Tictoc5.toc, stage 0
Tictoc5.toc: limit is 5
Tictoc5.toc: toc's counter is set to 5

Here you can see, tic's counter was set to 10, this is ok, but toc's counter is to 5.
I do not understand why its not set to 20, like I have said in int limit = default(20);
I have tictoc5.ned:
simple Txc5
{
parameters:
    bool sendMsgOnInit = default(false);
    int limit = default(20);
    @display("i=block/routing");
gates:
    input in;
    output out;
}

simple Tic5 extends Txc5
{
parameters:
    @display("i=,cyan");
    sendMsgOnInit = true;
    limit = 10;
}

simple Toc5 extends Txc5
{
parameters:
    @display("i=,gold");
}

network Tictoc5
{
submodules:
    tic: Tic5;
    toc: Toc5;

connections:
    tic.out --> {  delay = 100ms; } --> toc.in;
    tic.in <-- {  delay = 100ms; } <-- toc.out;
}

and I have txc5.cc
#include <string.h>
#include <omnetpp.h>

class Txc5 : public cSimpleModule
{
private:
    int counter;

  protected:
    virtual void initialize();
    virtual void handleMessage(cMessage *msg);
};

Define_Module(Txc5);

void Txc5::initialize()
{
    counter = par("limit");
    EV << "limit is " << (int)par("limit") << " \n";
    EV << getName() << "'s counter is set to " << counter << "\n";
    if (par("sendMsgOnInit").boolValue() == true)
    {
        // The `ev' object works like `cout' in C++.
        EV << "Sending initial message\n";
        cMessage *msg = new cMessage("tictocMsg");
        send(msg, "out");
    }
}

void Txc5::handleMessage(cMessage *msg)
{
    counter--;
    if(counter == 0) {
        EV << getName() << "'s counter reached zero, deleting message \n";

    } else {
        EV << getName() << "'s counter is " << counter << "\n";
        EV << "Received message `" << msg->getName() << "', sending it out again\n";
        send(msg, "out");
    }
}

A: The default value of parameter is taken from NED provided that there is no matched entry for this parameter in omnetpp.ini file (and the parameter isn't hardcoded - explanation later). In omnetpp.ini for Tictoc5 example there is following entry:  **.limit = 5
Therefore for Toc5 limit is equal to 5.
However, in definition of Tic5 in NED line: limit = 10 means that the value of limit parameter is hardcoded to 10. And according to OMNeT++ Manual hardcoded parameter:

*

*cannot be overwritten by value from omnetpp.ini
file

*doesn't take default value anymore

More--Or Mores?
If you mention English three-speed bikes, the first brand that comes to most people's minds is Raleigh.
That makes sense when you realize that not only did Raleigh make more such machines-- and make them for longer-- than any other bike maker, they had also, by the late 1950s, acquired BSA, Sunbeam and other manufacturers of such machines. If you aren't a three-speed enthusiast or haven't worked in a bike shop, you probably aren't aware of those brands. Most people have seen bikes from those marqes but didn't notice because they don't know or care about such things, or because those bikes looked so much like Raleighs that they didn't notice the brands.
So it's not such a surprise that English bicycle saddles have a similar history to the bikes I've mentioned, especially when you realize that most English bikes (as well as machines from many other countries), until the 1970s, came with British leather saddles.
Now, a cyclist who isn't of a certain age can be forgiven for thinking that Brooks is the only British company to have made those iconic perches from hide stretched across rails. Turns out, up to about the 1970s, a number of firms in Albion were making saddles similar to the ones Brooks offered.
You may have ridden one of their wares, perhaps without realizing it. Among those saddle makers were Lycett, Wrights and one I re-discovered recently. They all have remarkably parallel histories: They started as makers of horse saddles or other leather goods, and they all were based--as was much of the British cycling industry--in and around Birmingham.
(The name of that city is pronounced "burr-mean-gum" with an accent on the first syllable. Folks in Alabama will tell you their largest city is "Burr-ming-ham", with the last syllable accented.)
Recently, I saw an old Holdsworth parked in my neighborhood. I wish I had taken photos of it: The frame was obviously from the 1960s or earlier, but it was kitted out with a combination of modern, mostly Japanese, components. The bike, however, sported one item that was very distinctively of its place and time:
I rather liked the nameplate, with the Middlemore name bookended by an enlarged "M" and "E" at the beginning and end, respectively. What puzzled me, though, is this:
So the rear plate says "Middlemore" but the side emblems read "Middlemores". It would make more sense if the latter contained an apostrophe, as in "Middlemore's saddles". Instead,it looks as if someone couldn't decide on the singular or plural.
The makers of that saddle can be forgiven. The B89, which I believe was the model I saw on the Holdsworth, looks like a cross between a Brooks Professional and B17. At least, the width seems to be somewhere between the two. And the leather on it was as thick as I've seen on any, and appeared to be of very good quality. Whoever's been riding that saddle seems to have taken care of it.
In doing some research, I found an entire blog devoted, not only to Middlemore(s) saddles, but to other items--some not related to bikes--made by the company. Apparently, the firm was known as Middlemore & Lamplugh after the two firms bearing those names merged in 1896, and continued to make saddles under both names until 1920, when the firm was dissolved and one of its factories was sold. Middlemore once again became a separate company, known as Middlemores Coventry, that continued to make bicycle saddles.
As Raleigh was acquiring many of the old British bicycle marques, a rival company, the Tube Investments Group, was buying up the bike makers Raleigh hadn't collected. By that time, Raleigh also owned a number of component manufacturers, including Sturmey Archer---and Brooks. In 1960, TI bought Raleigh, which meant that, in essence, they controlled the British bicycle industry.
TI would then "retire" some of the old bike and parts brands that had previously competed with Raleigh and its affiliates. Somehow, though, Middlemore(s) managed to remain independent. During that time, the B89 came out; later, a cutaway version (like the Brooks Swallow), the B89N, was offered. And their tri-sprung saddle, the B3, found a following among some more leisurely cyclists. According to one former employee, Middlemore(s) even made a saddle for Princess Margaret.
By the 1970's, however, much of their dwindling income came from rebadged saddles they made for a few bike manufacturers, including Lambert/Viscount and Moulton. But as companies like Lambert/Viscount died out, were acquired or moved production overseas, Middlemore(s) dwindled and seems to have stopped making saddles altogether in the 1980s, although it existed on paper until 21 May 1991.
At that time, Middlemore(s) was one of the most longevous manufacturing firms of any kind in Britain or the world. It had, in fact, existed for even longer than Brooks or Raleigh.
Across the Channel, a number of French firms made leather saddles similar to the ones made by their counterparts in Blighty. Some were of decidedly inferior quality, like the Adga Model 28s that came with Peugeot UO8s and other similar French bikes. (The Adga 28, as Sheldon Brown wryly notes, probably did more than anything else to turn people off suspended leather saddles.) Then there was Norex, a "second line" of saddles from Ideale, the best-known French maker.
Ideale seems to have gone out of business in the mid-1980s or thereabouts. From the next two decades or so, Brooks was just about the only brand of leather saddles available (and then only sporadically) in the US and much of the world. A Dutch company continued to make similar products, which seemed to be of decent quality. One possible reason why they weren't imported to America, or to most of the English-speaking world, might have been its name: Lepper.

What about Berthoud?
Justine Valinotti February 4, 2017 at 8:41 PM
Steve--Berthoud only started to make saddles a few years ago.Until then, Brooks had been just about the only maker of leather saddles available in the US.
Stephen February 5, 2017 at 5:12 PM
When D. Mason took over the Birmingham side of Middlemore & Lamplugh they unfortunately also became a major shareholder in the Coventry branch when it became Middlemores, so maybe they had final say on the new name and deliberately put in a grammatical error as a way of showing who's in charge? Maybe as soon as any D. Mason authority waned over the years Middlemores were able to change the rear badge to Middlemore in honour of the company origins?
Justine Valinotti February 6, 2017 at 12:52 PM
Stephen--Interesting story. Someone deliberately enshrined a mistake in order to show his power? Hmm...Does that sound a bit like some of the cabinet appointments and executive orders made over the last couple of weeks?
No definate info on the why's of the Middlemore name from 1920, just guessing. Also wondering, if D. Mason had thought the Coventry branch would be any kind of big rival they might have turned that into D. Mason too?
Justine Valinotti February 7, 2017 at 6:06 AM
Stephen--I would be interested to know the story. There doesn't seem to be a lot of information about Middlemore, though.

On a sunny September day in Colorado, Brianna – known to everyone as Bri – a client service representative at the Arvada West Veterinary Hospital (AWVH), picked up a phone call and could tell right away the caller was frantic. Josh was speaking rapidly as he described the symptoms that Daisy, the dog that his family recently adopted, was experiencing.
Daisy was walking crookedly, had been vomiting, and just 15-20 minutes earlier, had suddenly become extremely lethargic. Josh worriedly reported that Daisy even felt "cold to the touch." Bri urged Josh to bring Daisy into Arvada West as soon as possible.
But Josh had an important question first…he asked if AWVH offered payment plans. He'd seen on a website that AWVH was a participating veterinarian with VetBilling, and he wanted to confirm that Arvada West would be willing to work with him financially. Josh explained that his family was in a tough place after paying for medical bills for one of his daughters. Bri confirmed that VetBilling was indeed accepted at AWVH, and again urged Josh to head to the clinic right away.
Josh assured Bri that he, Daisy, and his daughter were jumping in the car and heading over, but that he lived in Aurora (a suburb on the opposite side of Denver from AWVH) and he'd be arriving in about 40 minutes.
Bri alerted Dr. Carpenter and the team about Daisy's condition, then talked to the Hospital Manager, Lea Ann McCaslin, about a VetBilling client coming in with a pet in distress. While the medical team prepared, Lea Ann got paperwork ready and the team waited for Josh and Daisy's arrival.
Josh burst in the front doors of the clinic carrying Daisy, followed by a little blonde girl, his daughter, on his heels.
Bri took Daisy from his arms and rushed her to the team on standby. Josh and his daughter were led to an exam room, where he was questioned by a veterinary technician about Daisy's history, and what she might have been eating or gotten into. Josh was suspicious that Daisy might have eaten a tablet of his daughter's medication.
While Dr. Carpenter and the team worked with Daisy, rehydrating and warming her as they tested for a diagnosis, Lea Ann talked with Josh about VetBilling.
Josh had called numerous veterinary clinics, including the clinic where he took Daisy for her free post-adoption exam. None of the clinics were willing to offer a flexible payment option, so Josh searched online and found VetBilling, where he saw Arvada West listed on the directory of participating veterinarians.
Lea Ann and Josh completed the VetBilling payment plan enrollment paperwork, and then Josh settled in with his daughter to wait for news about Daisy.
Dr. Carpenter suspected Daisy had swallowed medication and tested for it; and although the test didn't confirm that the medication was the culprit, the treatment for a potential toxic ingestion was working – thank goodness.
Dr. Carpenter talked to Josh to let him know that Daisy would need to stay in the clinic overnight for continued treatment. Josh and his daughter then headed home, feeling tremendous relief.
By the next day, Daisy was up and eating! These positive signs were reported to Josh when Dr. Carpenter called to let him know he could come pick up Daisy and take her home.
Josh arrived at the hospital – this time with both of his daughters in tow — all of them thrilled that Daisy was better and coming home with them.
Josh and Dr. Carpenter reviewed Daisy's aftercare plan, the VetBilling payment plan application was finalized, and a grateful family walked out the door with Daisy strolling along beside them.
The postscript to this story? Josh and his family, like many pet owners, just needed a little extra time to manage the expense of an unexpected veterinary emergency.
Josh has already finished making all the payments for Daisy's care.
Arvada West Veterinary Hospital is located in Arvada, Colorado, a suburb of Denver.
