All of my photographic art bookmarks include a phrase on the back that I feel complements the image on the front of the bookmark. Sometimes I come up with a phrase that works for the entire series as can be seen on my sunflower bookmark series. The back of each sunflower image reads, "Light up your day with a good book." Other series have sufficiently different images that I feel the need to come up with something different for the back of each image as I did with my Piggy Pollinator series.
I have recently created a new photographic art small bookmark series. It is my critter series and since each critter is different, I needed different sayings for the back of each image. As in the past, some of these sayings were easy to come up with while others took me some time to come up with something short and connected in some way to the image on the front of the bookmark. You can see all five phrases that I penned in the photos in my listing for my new critter series bookmarks in my EDCCollective Etsy shop.
For this blog post however, I want to focus on just one of my phrases, the one for the spiny lizard. It reads, "Mistaken identity is a common plot convention." The reason that I am focusing on this phrase is because the two people that I showed my new bookmark series to could not figure out the connection of that phrase to the lizard image. Once I explained the connection to them, they agreed that the saying worked. This experience led me to believe that I had a golden opportunity for a contest for my subscribers, followers and fans.
If you are 18 years old or older and you are not one of the people that I have already explained the connection to between the phrase and the image, then you are welcome to enter the contest. The contest begins now and will run through Sunday (CST), December 9, 2012. *** Update *** No correct entry was received by the deadline, so I am going to continue the contest until I receive a correct entry. The first correct entry that I receive per the rules listed will be the winner. The winner of the contest will receive their pick of one small bookmark as seen in my EDCCollective or EclecticSkeptic Etsy shops or in my photographic art facebook photo album. I will ship the selected bookmark via USPS first class mail. The winner will be selected at random from all of the correct responses entered during the duration of the contest. You are not limited to just one entry.
You may have guessed what the entry should contain by now, but let me specify. Each entry needs to explain why the phrase, "Mistaken identity is a common plot convention." goes with the spiny lizard image on the front as seen in this post. Email your entry to EclecticDesignChoices@yahoo.com. I will contact the winner by replying to your entry email, at which time I will find out which bookmark you would like and where it needs to be shipped to.
Thanks in advance for all of you that put your thinking caps on and enter this contest. I hope pondering this connection will be a fun puzzler and I look forward to reading your entries.

Google Analytics is a useful tool for tracking what goes on in our Etsy shops and Etsy has made it very easy to "turn on" tracking for them. After I started another blog on blogspot earlier this year, I decided to add tracking to that blog too. A lot has changed since I wrote how I added GA tracking to this blog, so I am updating the instructions with this post.
1) Sign into or sign up for a Google Analytics account.
2) Click on "Admin" near the upper right corner.
3) Click on an existing account and add a property to that account (your blog that you want to track) or click on "new account" to create a new one to add a new property to.
4) Fill out the information asked for on the form that opens, then click "Get Tracking ID" button.
5) In a new tab, go to your blogger blog and sign in.
6) Click on the arrow drop down for the blog that you want to add tracking to and click on "Template".
8) This brings up a box with HTML code in it. Before you change any of the code, copy it and save it in a document on your computer in case something goes awry.
9) Look for the closing "/head" tag. You will see the opening "head" tag near the left side and near the top of the html but will most likely have to scroll much of the way to the bottom to find the closing "/head" tag. It will also be near the left edge. Insert a blank line just above the "/head" tag.
10) Click on the Google Analytics tab that is the page shown in the 1st screen shot. Copy the code in the "Paste this code on your site" box. Then click back on the blogger tab where you were editing the html and paste that code on the blank line that you added in the previous step.
12) Go back to the tab that has the Google Analytics page that you copied the tracking code from. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click the "Save" button. You should then see a green button appear near the top of the page that says "Success".
13) Log out of GA and your blog and expect results to begin adding up for your new property in Google Analytics.
I stepped out this morning and took photos of some of the plants that are currently blooming in my garden. Just because summer is officially over, it doesn't mean that the color needs to be gone from your garden. Clockwise from the upper left is blue mistflower, fall blooming aster, strawberry gomphrena, mealy blue sage and hummingbird bush. Click on the image to enlarge it.
Blue mistflower is predominantly a late summer/fall bloomer in my garden. It is a good source of nectar for migrating monarch butterflies. As the name implies, this aster blooms in the fall. You can see that it has just begun to open its flowers and will soon be a pretty mound of purple. Strawberry gomphrena is an annual that reseeds and blooms as soon as it can in the spring and continues until a freeze. Occasionally some of these plants will overwinter as a tender perennial. Late summer and fall rains have brought out another flush of blooms on my native TX mealy blue sage. Hummingbird bush thrives and blooms in the sun, heat and fairly dry conditions.
I really appreciate being featured by the treasury makers. To thank them, I have listed below (in alphabetical order) links to the 3 Etsy sellers that let me know that they featured at least one of my items, as well as an item from their shop that I like.

Q: Variant delegates in variant interfaces. Why keywords are needed? The question arose about the need for keywords in variant delegates, if their events are in variant interfaces. The question only concerns the in and out keywords for delegates. See explanations below.
As soon as we make an interface with keyword in, a delegate with keyword out is required, why?
After all, delagate without keyword out somehow has covariance, but only for methods, not delegate instances, which means I could put a method in event anyway, but not a delegate instance.
But we cannot do this.
namespace ConsoleApp1
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            //Step 1
            B MyMethodReturnB()
            {
                return new B();
            }

            //Step 2
            MyClass<A> MyClassForA = new MyClass<A>();
            MyClassForA.MyEvent += MyMethodReturnB; //In MyClass<A>() you can put data of type B through the method MyMethodReturnB and without keyword out in the delegate MyDelegateReturn

            //Step 3
            MyDelegateReturn<B> MyDelegateReturnForB = new MyDelegateReturn<B>(MyMethodReturnB);
            //MyClassForA.MyEvent += MyDelegateReturnForB; //But when we try to put data of type B through a delagate variable without keyword out, an error occurs, this is how variability works in delegates.
                                                           //Without the keywords in and out, one delegate cannot be assigned to another delegate

            //Step 4
            IMyInterface<B> IMyInterfaceForB = MyClassForA; //Through the interface IMyInterface<B> without keyword in, you cannot put MyClass<A>(), but if IMyInterface<B> with keyword in, then we can

            //Step 5
            //As soon as we make an interface with keyword in, a delegate with keyword out is required, why?
            //After all, delagate without keyword out somehow has covariance, but only for methods, not delegate instances, which means I could put a method in event anyway, but not a delegate instance. But we cannot do this
        }
    }

    class A
    {

    }

    class B : A
    {

    }

    delegate T MyDelegateReturn</*out*/ T>(); //With keyword out all works

    interface IMyInterface<in T>
    {
        event MyDelegateReturn<T> MyEvent; //Error because delegate without keyword out
    }

    class MyClass<T> : IMyInterface<T>

    }

The Bulls, still leading the International League South by 5.5 games, had their opportunities to add runs against a team that is two games below .500 at 24-26. But five times they stranded runners in scoring position.
PawSox reliever Marcus Walden (4-2) got the win. Bulls reliever Adam Kolarek (1-3) was tagged with the loss.
A week after twirling a complete game shutout for Boston against the Seattle Mariners, Pawtucket starting left-handed pitcher Brian Johnson (2-0) was having a strong game for the PawSox. He whiffed five of the first seven Bulls he faced, while allowing a pair of singles. But on his second strikeout in the second inning, he suffered what appeared to be a leg injury and left the game.
The Bulls immediately jumped on PawSox reliever Chandler Shepherd for a 1-0 lead with back-to-back doubles down the left field line by left fielder Mike McKenry and second baseman Kean Wong.
Bauers slammed his sixth homer of the season in the third inning, a towering shot that tauntingly, lazily, carried into the right field seats for a 2-0 lead.
But Pawtucket tied the game in the fourth inning when right fielder Brian Bogusevic rifled a sinking liner that Bulls right fielder Mallex Smith attempted to catch on a running, forward leap. The ball bounced in front of his outstretched glove and scooted past him.
PawSox shortstop Ryan Court and left fielder Bryce Brentz, who both reached base on walks, scored on Bogusevic's standup triple.
Court led off with a line drive double to left in the top of the sixth, and advanced to third on a single to right by first baseman Steve Selsky. Brentz grounded into a double play, but Court scored to give Pawtucket a 3-2 lead.
Pawtucket increased its lead to 6-2 on reliever Yoel Espinal's shaky eighth inning.
Espinal surrendered a leadoff single to center by Miller. He hit center fielder Rusney Castillo with a pitch, then threw a wild to push the runners to second and third. He sailed another wild pitch, allowing Miller to score and Castillo to go to third. Selsky walked, and advanced to second on Espinal's third wild pitch of the inning. Bogusevic then slammed a double to center to clear the bases.
Things kept going Pawtucket's way in the bottom of the inning. Bulls first baseman Casey Gillaspie drew a leadoff walk, and McKenry laced what appeared to be a hit into the left-center gap. But a racing Brentz made a diving catch, came up throwing and doubled Gillaspie off first base.
"Gillaspie got caught too far out and couldn't get back" on the slow-developing play that the umpire didn't make a call on immediately, Sandberg said. "We had some poor communication there from the first base coach" not telling Gillaspie to slide back to first to beat the throw.
The Bulls added a pair of runs in the ninth inning when Miller was moved from second to the mound. He threw looping, fluttering pitches in the 50-mph range, and even struck out center fielder Johnny Field leading off.
But then Smith hit a single, and Adames launched his 2-run homer over the Blue Monster in left field to make it 6-4, before the comeback rally stalled.

New Design Guide Signals the Way to More Inclusive Bike Planning
A formula for analyzing any city street.
Rachel Dovey December 7, 2017
(Credit: NACTO)
By now, most urban transportation planners have a working knowledge of on-street bike design basics — there's your standard bike lane, your cycle track, your bicycle boulevard. That's largely due to the seminal 2011 Urban Bikeway Design Guide from the National Association of City Transportation Officials (NACTO), which was formally embraced by the Federal Highway Administration in 2013.
When Is An E-Bike Not a Bike?
Should We Put Bikes in the "Slow Lane"?
Wanted: More Bus Drivers, Now
Students' Hands-On Experience Creates Sustainable, Equitable Parks
Now, NACTO has released a more comprehensive update aiming to help cities implement those design basics. "Designing for All Ages and Abilities" recognizes that bike lanes aren't built in a vacuum — and demonstrates how vehicle speed and traffic volume will determine which treatments most effectively go where.
That's not to say that it encourages planners to design around the car. In prioritizing "all ages and abilities" (i.e., children, seniors and people with disabilities alongside more confident riders), the guide is very clear: Often, officials will need to target traffic flow, and the report calls reducing motor vehicle speeds to 20-25 mph a "core operational strategy."
"Reducing speeds can also make it easier to enact other safety changes," the report states, "such as changes to intersection geometry, signalization, turn lanes, and turn restrictions."
But the guide also attempts to meet planners where they're at: on real, and often multi-modal, city streets. It recognizes that not every street needs a separated cycle track. Conventional and buffered bike lanes are fine, sometimes — but to encourage families with children or people with disabilities to bike on them, planners will need to do things like reducing vehicle speed, or reducing curbside conflicts (particularly freight and bus pull-outs). On other streets, if vehicle speed is high and will remain high, a separated track is the way to go.
NACTO design guidelines have previously tackled a diverse range of street design hot spots, including transit and stormwater management alongside bicycling. Their latest report is available in full here.

In 1970 Hunter S. Thompson ran for sheriff of Aspen wanting to ban cars and legalize certain substances
Nov 25, 2017 Domagoj Valjak

Hunter S. Thompson is often praised as the father of gonzo journalism. His explicit in-your-face writing style and lifelong battle against censorship inspired generations of writers and political activists.
Thompson is also known for his eccentric lifestyle, which included enormous quantities of alcohol and various drugs, anti-authoritarian rants, and a love of firearms. This pervaded his magnum opus, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas: A Savage Journey to the Heart of the American Dream, a graphic drug-fueled odyssey to the Las Vegas of the early 1970s that became one of the most significant literary works of the 20th century.
Although Thompson was a politically minded journalist and an outspoken supporter of drug legalization and the Civil Rights Movement, he never bothered to establish an actual political career. His only stint in state politics occurred in 1970, when he decided to run for sheriff of Aspen, Colorado, and the surrounding Pitkin County.
In the late 1960s, Thompson had moved to Woody Creek, Colorado, where he purchased a house with the $15,000 he earned from publishing his first book, Hell's Angels: The Strange and Terrible Saga of the Outlaw Motorcycle Gangs. He named his home "Owl Farm" and lived there until committing suicide in 2005.
Aspen, Colorado
Thompson wrote an article about the 1969 mayoral race in Aspen titled "The Battle of Aspen," running in Rolling Stone. He expressed his support of 29-year-old candidate Joe Edwards, a lawyer who was known for his support of the counterculture and his anti-establishment ideals.
In the article, Thompson argued that people should support the young unknown candidates with progressive attitudes, the so-called "freaks," because they were the ones capable of rising against the old conservative politicians who weren't willing to adapt their traditionalist ideals to the social and cultural needs of a progressive society. The article led to the term "Freak Power." Joe Edwards used the term as a part of his campaign and Thompson wholeheartedly supported him.
Although the odds were in Edwards' favor by the end of the campaign season, he ended up losing by a mere six votes. He decided not to remain involved in politics, but Thompson was keen on continuing with the "Freak Power" campaign. A year later, he ran for sheriff of Aspen and Pitkin County. His symbol was a raised fist holding a peyote superimposed over the sheriff's star and the changes he proposed throughout his campaign were rather radical.
First, he proposed Aspen be renamed "Fat City." In his opinion, this would stop greedy investors from exploiting the city's land and ruining the picturesque landscape of the county. Second, he argued that the sheriff and his deputies shouldn't be allowed to carry guns in public because trigger-happy members of law enforcement were, according to him, the main reason for most of the deadly shootouts in the U.S.
Furthermore, Thompson promised to ban hunting and fishing to all non-residents except those who would obtain special temporary permits, as this would bring an end to the exploitation of wildlife and natural resources of the county. Also, since cars were the cause of most of the air pollution in Aspen, Thompson was keen on banning cars from entering the city; residents would rely on bicycles.
Hunter S. Thompson, Long Beach, California, May 1989. Author Rs79 –
Finally, since he was an avid drug user who advocated the legalization of drugs, he proposed the legalization of all recreational drugs and even invented a punishment for dealers who dared to sell low-quality drugs on the street. In his opinion, such dealers should be put in stocks and displayed in public places so that the locals could mock them and even molest them in various ways.

While campaigning, Thompson received a number of serious death threats and armed guards patrolled around his house and office on election night. In the end, he lost to his Republican opponent, Carrol D. Whitmire, by around 90 votes. The county wasn't ready for Hunter Thompson's reforms.

In 2011, Hewlett Packard's annual revenue was $127bn, making it the largest technology company in the world by sales at that time – yet its market worth was a comparatively meagre $42bn. It had just appointed its third CEO in three years and the only clouds in its strategy were dark stormy ones hovering over its future.
I speculated at the time that HP was too big to fail – the IT equivalent of the flailing post-crash banks, propped up by huge government outsourcing contracts.
Last year, HP ceased to exist – split in two after finally acknowledging that its consumer-facing PC and print business was incompatible with its corporate IT arm. The move raised the question of whether the two new businesses – Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) and HP Inc (not Ink) – were no longer too big to fail.
This week, the shrinkage continued. HPE's services business – the former EDS – is merging into CSC, so ending a contender for the worst IT acquisition of all time. EDS was the world's biggest outsourcer when HP bought it for $13.2bn in 2008. By 2012 HP had written off $8bn of that sum, and subsequently cut tens of thousands of jobs in the division.
Now CSC – also struggling, and unable to sell itself despite interest from India – takes on the task of making two troubled IT services businesses greater than the sum of their parts.
The remainder of HPE is now a $33bn supplier that says it focuses on cloud computing – despite having no presence in the public cloud market dominated by Amazon Web Services (AWS).
In the early days of cloud, the old HP once decided to describe itself as the world's largest cloud supplier, through the simple trick of rebranding many of its products and services as "cloud". This has been a classic trick of old IT suppliers in recent years – they no longer sell servers, they sell cloud servers; that's not a converged system you bought, it's a private cloud.
Let's be blunt – it's not cloud unless it runs on someone else's computers.
Like IBM and Dell, HPE has many giant global customers looking to modernise their IT infrastructure and turning to their longstanding suppliers for help. Suddenly their costly old datacentres become "private clouds" – or by adding a bit of vendor hosting, a "hybrid cloud". Those customers will continue to prop up their old suppliers for many years yet, even as those old suppliers diminish and merge around them.
AWS, meanwhile, has hit a $10bn annual revenue run rate, growing 64% year on year. This week even Salesforce.com, itself one of the pioneers of cloud computing even before it was called cloud computing, decided to move much of its infrastructure to AWS. If even the top cloud companies think AWS-style commodity cloud is best, then inevitably there will be a time when those giant global customers realise it too.

Cardinal Watch: Robert laying the ground for future success
5 years ago Winta Mebrahti
He hurries to stand in front of the stove to make burritos and tacos that will silence the hunger of Mexican food-loving Plattsburgh citizens. He hurries to stand in front of the white board to give the members of the Marketing Club the opportunity to be the leaders he wants them to be.
Matthew Robert is the Plattsburgh State student who is always on the go. Alternating different hats, he marches towards the big apple with big dreams.
Unlike most PSUC students who get inspired by successful people, Robert gets his drive elsewhere.
"It's more who I don't want to be, not about who I want to be," Robert said.
Growing up in Malone, Robert said his motivation stems from his childhood in a secluded area with high teen pregnancy rates and where welfare is the primary income for most households.
His will to distance himself from that environment, and his quest for success led him to college. His choice fell on PSUC, where he decided to double major in marketing and entrepreneurship and minor in accounting.
"I like math and I wanted to apply it to something. I thought business was somewhere I could apply math without it having to be sitting behind the desk crunching numbers," Robert said.
Rewind four years and you will see a sartorially unrecognizable Robert. Alex Backstrom, Roberts roommate and friend since freshman year, recalls his first encounter with Robert.
"I remember the first day he came in with his big white shirt and skater shoes. He looked like a skater kid straight out of highschool, and now he is the leader of the club, always in his button-up," Backstrom said.
Robert joined the Marketing Club in an effort to enrich his collegiate experience. He was introduced to the club by one of his friends when he was looking for extracurricular activities to immerse himself in. During his time at the Marketing Club he gained skills that couldn't be gainedby flipping pages and taking notes. He became a better leader, a better time manager and a better time manager.
Those skills come to light at every Tuesday club meeting. He lets the members form groups in which leaders are appointed to lead the groups' projects for the club. After the completion of each project, Robert has the groups meet and discuss the outcome of the project, so they can improve where needed.
"They say that the best leaders make other leaders. My goal is to make leaders of my club members now because I want them to step up and be leaders next year. It's not about just me this year, it's about the club continuing and being something after I'm gone too," he said.
Besides devoting his time to the club, Robert juggles school, his job as a cook at Cheechako Taco and his internship in the same company.
Robert, who wants to get as much as possible out of his last year at PSUC, admits that this is his toughest year.
"You give up sleep a lot. But honestly I find time for all of those. You just don't sit down a lot. You're running from one place to the next. You just gotta be a lot more productive with your day," he said.
And productive he is. Backstrom explained how nothing can distract Robert from advancing in life.
"He is dedicated to get his work done before he is ready to chill. On a Friday night at 10 o'clock, you will see him working on his accounting homework. He is really impressive," Backstrom said.
Club Adviser Nancy Church is of the same opinion about Robert, who was inducted to Sigma Nu Tau, the entrepreneurship honor society, last year. She recalls a Saturday afternoon in New Orleans where students from the Marketing Club went for the yearly conference.
"I was so proud of him because on a Saturday afternoon when everybody is ready to go out and see New Orleans, he stayed and did a sales certification. You've got to give him credit — it is New Orleans after all," she said.
But it's not all work and no fun for Robert. He has participated in multiple skits and was the lead actor in one of Backstrom's productions. They are currently working together on a commercial for Cheechako Taco.
Robert's dream is to move to New York City with Backstrom whom Robert feels possesses qualities that compliment his own. When in New York City, Robert hopes to start his own marketing company and work with Backstrom on more creative projects.
Both Church and Backstrom agree that whatever Robert decides to do in the future, he is laying ground for a successful career.
"The best thing about Matt is that he can do anything. He can be doing sales for advertising companies or a bank. Whatever he decides to do he will kill it," Backstrom said.

Садиба по вулиці Олеся Гончара, 32 — комплекс житлових будинків у Шевченківському районі міста Києва, по вулиці Олеся Гончара. Складається з трьох будинків — фасадного будинку № 32-а, та двох дворових флігелів № 32-б і № 32-в. Садиба має статус пам'ятки архітектури місцевого значення (охоронний № 71), будинок № 32-а має статус пам'ятки архітектури, історії та містобудування місцевого значення (охоронний № 71/1), будинок № 32-б — пам'ятка архітектури місцевого значення (охоронний № 71/1), будинок № 32-в — щойно виявлена пам'ятка (з 2004 року). Садиба № 32 — зразок київської типової міської забудови початку 1910-х років.

Історія
Наприкінці XIX століття садиба належала Є. Богданович і була забудована невеликими міщанськими дерев'яними будинками. 1908 року садиба перейшла у власність до колезького асесора Маркела Чуленка, який у 1910 році на місці старого чолового дерев'яного будинку звів новий, мурований, а у 1911—1912 роках збудував у глибині ділянки два флігелі, що використовувалися як прибуткові будинки. У 1914 році садибу продали з публічних торгів, новою власницею стала дворянка Софія Вондрак, солістка київської опери, дружина професора Вацлава Вондрака. На початку 1920-х років, після встановлення у Києві більшовицької влади, садибу націоналізували, у будинках створили окремі та комунальні квартири.

Опис
Планування садиби № 32 подібне до сусідніх по цій вулиці: фасадний будинок стоїть на червоній лінії забудови, паралельно йому в глибині ділянки розміщені один за одним два флігелі.

Фасадний будинок (№ 32-а) — п'ятиповерховий із мансардою (в 2000-х роках зверху добудували ще один мансардний поверх), цегляний, прямокутний у плані, односекційний, на першому поверсі розміщені торговельні приміщення. Чоловий фасад декорований у стилі раціонального модерну, симетричний, трьохосьовий, осі підкреслені широким центральним та вузькими бічними ризалітами. Центральний ризаліт, акцентований лопатками, завершується лучковим аттиком із великою розеткою з рослинним орнаментом, обабіч якої — пояски з дентикул. Балкони досить видовжені, на два вікна, розміщені між ризалітами на рівні другого—п'ятого поверхів, чим врівноважують вертикальну спрямованість композиції. Вікна різноманітної форми: на другому поверсі — прямокутні (у центральному ризаліті — звужені), на третьому — із трапецієвидним завершенням (у ризалітах) та прямокутні, із геометричними підвіконними вставками, на четвертому — прямокутні (у центральному ризаліті — широкі), на п'ятому — із напівциркульним завершенням, у центральному ризаліті прикрашені замковими каменями. Між вікнами п'ятого поверху — гіпсовий фриз із мотивами каштанового листя. Головний вхід розташований по центральній осі фасаду, по лівій осі — проїзд на внутрішнє подвір'я. Тильний фасад по центральній осі виділений ризалітом, в якому розташовані сходи чорного ходу. В інтер'єрі будинку зберіглося первісне оформлення у стилі модерн, зокрема, кована огорожа сходів, ліпні плафони та кахляне облицювання, у декорі яких переважають рослинні мотиви. Бічний фасад будинку у 2016 році прикрасив мурал, який зображує трьох гризунів, що спілкуються. Мурал був створений бельгійським художником Пітером ROA у рамках арт-проєкту Art United Us.

Флігель № 32-б — чотириповерховий, цегляний, прямокутний у плані, односекційний (по дві дво- та трикімнатні квартири на поверсі). Перекриття пласкі, дах вкритий залізом. Фасад симетричний, одноосьовий, центральна вісь акцентована ризалітом, в якому розташована сходова клітка. Парадний вхід розташований на центральній осі, проїзд на внутрішнє подвір'я — на лівій. Як і більшість подібних дворових споруд, чоловий фасад флігеля має дуже скудне декорування у стилі модерн: геометричний орнамент у завершенні ризаліту, цегляні сандрики над вікнами другого поверху, дерев'яне заповнення вікон парадних сходів. Інтер'єр флігеля, подібно до фасадного будинку, був оформлений у стилі модерн. Від первісного декорування збереглися плафони, облицьовані білими кахлями та оздоблені фігурними завершеннями та вставками груби, металевий дашок на кованих кронштейнах над парадним входом.

Флігель № 32-в — двоповерховий, цегляний, односекційний. Фасад асиметричний, на тринадцять вікон, по лівій осі розміщений проїзд на подвір'я, головний вхід розташований трохи правіше центральної осі та фланкований лопатками. Фасад майже позбавлений декорування, горизонтально розчленований пояском, завершений карнизом із дентикулами. Вікна прямокутні, на першому поверсі прикрашені пласкими цегляними сандриками, на другому — замковими каменями. З первісних елементів інтер'єру збереглися різьблені двері парадного входу та металева огорожа сходів. Первісне внутрішнє планування флігеля передбачало 6 квартир. За незалежної України чотири квартири у даному будинку належали збанкрутілому банку «Надра» і станом на 2020 рік виставлені на аукціон разом з іншим майном банку. Флігель розселений, перебуває в аварійному стані.

Видатні мешканці
У будинку № 32-а в січні-лютому 1919 року у квартирі № 3 мешкав Іван Липа, громадський і політичний діяч, міністр УНР; у 1936—1941 роках, у квартирі № 20 — Гаврило Пустовійт, художник-графік. Під час нацистської окупації Києва у Другій світовій війні у будинку № 32-а діяла явка диверсійної групи Івана Кудрі, до якої входили, зокрема, Євгенія Бремер, що мешкала у квартирі № 7, та Раїса Окіпна, що з 1940 року проживала у квартирі № 20. На явку члени групи збиралися в одній з цих квартир.

Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah El Sisi and ministers in the Egyptian Cabinet meet with IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde on April 6, 2017 (via Egyptian Ministry of International Cooperation Facebook page).
Egypt's Payroll Is Fine, but Its Revenues Are Too Low.
Throughout June, the Egyptian cabinet and parliament debated a budget for the 2017–18 fiscal year, which began on July 1. The budget has been referred to in Egypt as the "IMF budget" due to the number of restrictions in an austerity program imposed by the International Monetary Fund. The IMF—which approved a $12 billion package of loans in November 2016, in exchange for a number of reforms—aims to reduce Egypt's public spending from around 30 percent of its gross domestic product to below 23 percent by 2021, with one-sixth of those cuts coming from the public payroll. In the final budget, approved by Egypt's House of Representatives on July 4, the wages of government workers rose nominally, from nearly 229 billion Egyptian pounds (LE) to LE 239.5 billion—but this 4.7 percent increase was dwarfed by inflation of over 30 percent. What are the effects of this real reduction in government wages? Should the government make cutting this portion of public expenditures a priority?
This projected path is expected to materialize from several sources: a) the new budget law eliminates indexation of bonuses and allowances of public employees and defines them in nominal terms as opposed to percentage of the base salary before; b) the current practice of scrutinizing new hiring and not automatically filling vacant positions; c) the new civil service law, passed by Parliament in August, will modernize the entire public employment framework.
Proponents of less government and a larger role for the private sector will hail this measure as a much-needed reform, but these cuts—a good chunk of which goes to middle-class and lower-middle-class civil servants who mostly spend their incomes immediately in the local market—could have serious repercussions on growth, employment rates, and even on the size of a shrinking and struggling middle class.
The argument for cutting the wage bill usually goes something like: "We have a wage bill that swallows a third of government revenues, yet we still have a dysfunctional bureaucracy. The bureaucracy is inflated and needs to be cut down." It is true that Egypt spends 30 percent of governmental revenues on public wages, and one could argue that this is a large figure despite governments like Iceland spending 29 percent and Cyprus and Morocco spending 41 percent of their revenues on public wages, according to World Bank figures (see Table 1). Even if the Egypt figures might be large, they are certainly not exceptionally large. However, a high ratio of public wages to revenues does not tell us the whole story, and a high ratio could be either the result of a large inflated wage bill or low government revenues. In the case of Egypt, it is the latter. Egypt is the fourth-highest out of 15 select countries listed in the table below when it comes to wages as share of revenues, but more in the middle of the pack in terms of wages as a percentage of GDP. This suggests that the distortion might be in Egypt's low revenue-to-GDP ratio rather than in its high wage-to-revenue ratio.
Albania, Algeria, Jamaica, Ireland, and Turkey all match Egypt in spending 7 percent of GDP on governmental wages, but they spend 28, 19, 23, 23, and 23 percent of revenues (respectively) on wages, compared to Egypt's 30 percent. Even some countries with higher levels of wages than Egypt as a percentage of GDP still enjoy a small wage bill relative to government revenues. Public wages in France, for example, is 10 percent of GDP but only 23 percent of government revenue. Iceland also has a wage bill of 9 percent of GDP and 29 percent of government revenue, and Israel's shares are 10 percent and 26 percent.
Why, then, are Egypt's numbers outliers in both directions—lower as a share of GDP, and higher as a share of revenue? This is mostly due to the fact that Egypt only collects 12.2 percent of its GDP in taxes, which is very low in comparison to international averages. With low government revenues, even an average wage bill would appear as large relative to that low revenue. Egypt's government revenues is are too low even by IMF standards, and indeed increasing the government revenues is part of the IMF program's answer to the issue of the budget deficit.
Without solving the revenue problem, cutting public wages is unnecessary and even harmful due to serious economic and social repercussions. First, civil servants in Egypt constitute a large portion of the lower- middle and middle class. Cutting out 3 percent of GDP that usually readily translate to effective demand will undoubtedly have a noticeable impact on GDP growth, as civil servants are a socioeconomic group that immediately spends their income on consumer products, driving domestic demand and therefore growth. Their spending patterns also rely more on homegrown and manufactured products, and rarely go on holidays abroad, which means that their spending patterns have a positive impact on the large trade deficit. Reducing civil servants' pay would increase the pressure on a middle class that is already struggling, thus weakening economic and political stability.
Second, boosting high youth and women employment is one of the goals of the IMF program. However, half of the female workforce is employed by the public sector, which is much more egalitarian when it comes to gender than the private sector, and curtailing public employment is already having a negative impact on the employment of educated women. Cutting the wage bill will therefore disproportionately affect women, leaving them even more vulnerable to unemployment, informal and unprotected employment, and a discriminatory private sector.
Finally, with extreme austerity measures that can only be expected to lead to even more economic slowdown, it is difficult to see how the private sector might be able to grow to absorb the excess labor left behind by cutting the wages bill. Accordingly, the path to avoiding a Greek-style austerity scenario is for the government to concentrate its efforts on becoming better at collecting taxes in a just and fair manner, and thereby increase their revenues and reduce the relative wage bill without the negative economic and social consequences. There are some serious revisions even from within the neoliberal camp about the harm caused by austerity measures especially on growth and equality, and Greece is still a very fresh example of that. However, the program set out for Egypt seems determined to repeat these mistakes, while expecting different results.

Q: Listening for events in another component and waiting for reply I want to add a JPanel to my GUI, which will have some buttons say, b1, b2, b3. This JPanel will be added dynamically, while the application is already running, on the press of a button, say b. When I display the JPanel, the button b will not work until one of the buttons b1, b2, b3 is pressed.
I created the JPanel class which contains the buttons b1, b2, b3 and added the event handlers and inside the mouse event handler for the button b, I instantiated the object of the jPanel. So, the JPanel is getting displayed, but the button b is not waiting for a response from b1, b2 & b3.
The rest of the button b's event code will depend on which choice is made between b1,b2 and b3. So it will pause that that line of the code until a choice is made.
How can I stop the button b, until one of the buttons are selected?
Here is an MCVE...
1) Main class...
package com.company;

import javax.swing.*;

public class Main {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

import java.awt.event.MouseEvent;

public class Frame extends JFrame {
    public Frame() {

        JButton b = new JButton("Click Me!!");
        b.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() {
            @Override
            public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) {
                Panel panel = new Panel();
                Frame.super.add(panel);

                // After this I have more handling code, which depends on which button was chosen.
                // But I cant stop the execution at this point and make it wait for a choice.

                Frame.super.revalidate();
            }
        });
        super.add(b);
        super.validate();
    }
}

3) Panel class...
package com.company;

import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.MouseAdapter;
import java.awt.event.MouseEvent;

public class Panel extends JPanel {

            public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) {
                JButton button = (JButton) e.getSource();
                // return button ??
                // return the name of the button to the event handler of the button b in the JFrame for further execution.
            }
        };

        JButton b1 = new JButton("option 1");
        b1.addMouseListener(listener);
        JButton b2 = new JButton("option 2");
        b2.addMouseListener(listener);
        JButton b3 = new JButton("option 3");
        b3.addMouseListener(listener);

        super.add(b1);
        super.add(b2);
        super.add(b3);
    }
}

The parts where I want to add some code are commented and the functionality I want to add is explained.

STCC Connects with Hispanic American Institute to Offer Courses for Entrepreneurs
By BusinessWest Staff April 25, 2022 595
SPRINGFIELD — The Hispanic American Institute, in partnership with Springfield Technical Community College, will offer two free courses to support Latino and minority entrepreneurs in Springfield by providing education and tools which will help them achieve economic prosperity.
The two courses are "English for Entrepreneurs," starting today and "Basic Computer Skills Classes," starting April 26.  STCC's Workforce Development Center will offer the two courses for HAI. Learn more about the classes at stcc.edu/wdc.
Courses are open to Springfield residents or any entrepreneur who has a business in Springfield or wants to start a business in Springfield. Courses are taught in English, but translation in Spanish will be available as needed.
The Boston office of the Hispanic American Institute, a nonprofit dedicated to promoting social, educational, and economic development in Hispanic communities in the continental United States, Puerto Rico, and Latin America, will provide funding for the courses.
As part of this Springfield project, the Hispanic American Institute will provide bilingual and culturally competent business technical assistance to minority-owned businesses. The goal is to increase revenues, create and retain jobs, and help start new businesses. The Hispanic American Institute has recently opened a local office at 1350 Main St., Suite 1508, in Springfield.
"We were inspired to create a holistic approach to supporting immigrants, particularly Latino entrepreneurs, in Springfield by providing educational courses and one-on-one business coaching," said John Perez, consulting project manager for the Hispanic American Institute.
"We know lack of English language proficiency is a barrier to economic prosperity," he added. "Further, lack of computer skills further inhibits access to knowledge and opportunities to start and manage a business successfully. Through this collaboration and the courses being offered, we hope to address all these issues and open opportunities for the participants."
STCC, which has a technical focus in all of its programs, is designated as a Hispanic Serving Institution. That means at least 25% of the full-time equivalent students are Hispanic and the college is eligible for grants to benefit all students.
About the courses:
English for Entrepreneurs: This course, taught virtually via Zoom, is designed for business owners, entrepreneurs and adults. Participants will learn English in the context of managing a business. Vocabulary will cover marketing, management, accounting and legal terms frequently used in casual conversations. As part of this class, participants will be asked to create a business pitch.
Prior to starting the course, STCC will assess each participant to place them at the correct level. The course runs for 10 weeks. Classes will be held on Mondays and Wednesdays, 5:30 p.m.-8:30 p.m. April 25 through June 29.
Basic Computer Skills Classes: This in-person course is designed for business owners, entrepreneurs and adults. Participants will develop basic computer skills for office work, as well as for the effective management of a business. Students will participate in activities to learn: Google Documents, Google Sheets basics (spreadsheets), efficient use of the internet, Google Slides basics, efficient use of electronic communications (e-mail), and file management and storage in Google Drive.
There will be two cohorts. The first cohort will start April 26 and will meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays, 6:00 p.m.-8:00 p.m. at STCC. The course will run 5 weeks (last class May 26). The second cohort will start on May 31 and end on June 30.
For more information, contact the Workforce Development Center at STCC. Visit the office at Building 27, second floor. Call (413) 755-4225 or email [email protected].

We Focus on Five Critical Challenges Facing the United States
Soaring rates of overdose are threatening the health and vitality of communities across the country. The urgency of the addiction and overdose crisis demands public health strategies that prevent substance use, reduce the risk of overdose and health problems associated with substance use, and boost access to effective treatment for people with substance use disorders.
One in nine young people in the U.S. is disconnected from school or work — leaving them vulnerable to a broad set of health challenges. Public health tools can improve our understanding of the risk factors that lead to disconnection and help us design systemic solutions that reengage young people.
Our natural environment and our built environment profoundly affect our health. We can protect ourselves and future generations by using public health tools to design and shape healthy communities.
Since the 1970s, obesity rates have more than tripled. The current food system undermines the ability of millions of Americans to make healthy dietary choices. Public health tools can inform changes to policy and the design of local food systems in order to promote access to nutritious foods.
Like an infectious disease, violence can spread through a community, leaving devastation in its wake. Public health tools can help us better understand the causes of and solutions to violence and inform a comprehensive agenda to improve community safety.
Public Health Themes
Our Work is Rooted Equity, Evidence and Policy
Low-income communities and communities of color disproportionately experience illness and mortality from many different health challenges. Progress and justice require understanding and confronting these inequities directly.
Good intentions do not guarantee successful outcomes. It's essential to study whether interventions, programs and policies work. Developing new tools to support more frequent and effective use of evidence is a critical goal for the Initiative.
Moving the needle in the Initiative's focus areas requires engaging a broad coalition of actors from the research, policy, practice and academic fields to design, implement, evaluate and advocate for evidence-based policy solutions.

1. Melt the margarine over medium-high heat. When hot, add the onion and saute until tender and translucent. Add garlic and saute another minute. Quickly stir in the flour and nutritional yeast until a thick, pasty roux has formed. This happens in a matter of seconds, so be sure not to over cook it.
2. Pour in the vegetable broth slowly and in small increments, whisking constantly, until it has thickened up. Whisk in the milk. Add the mushrooms and amino acids and bring to a low boil. Turn heat down to a good simmer and allow to cook until mushrooms are tender and done.
3. Stir in the pepper to your liking (we like a lot of pepper-15 or 20 good twists of a grinder). Mix the cornstarch and cold water together and whisk quickly into the gravy until thickened. Remove from heat and allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving.
This gravy is so versatile and yummy. We love it on everything. We love to throw a bunch of stuff together in a bowl and top it with this gravy. It is amazing on mashed potatoes and also on opened face hot sandwiches! YUM!
Source of recipe: Like all of my recipes, this recipe took a few years to perfect. But the end result is amazingly good!
This was really very, very good.
Good gracious! My husband and I almost ate the entire batch in one sitting! Wonderful recipe!
I made this last night. I used 1 small onion, sauteed the mushrooms with the onions, and instead of broth and Bragg's I used the cooking broth from the seitan I made earlier in the day. I also made it slightly thicker and added LOTS of black pepper. So yum!
Fresh is best, however I used one cup of dried shitake mushrooms for this gravy. I used 2 cups of boiling water, soaking them for 20 minutes before chopping. Then I used the mushroom broth from soaking for the veggie broth. It came out delicious! Great recipe!
Wow this gravy is awesome! What a great recipe, thank you for sharing!
This was a good base recipe. It still needs something, though. I'm not sure what it's missing but I'm going to find it! I miss rich gravies.
This recipe is as good as any mushroom gravy I've had at veggie restaurants. I make this when I'm cooking to impress. I prefer not to use portobellos though, because I don't like the gray color their gills give off.


Delicious - a chef's delight!
A beautiful brown skinned yellow onion. Intermediate and extra large, these globe shaped onions are firm with good skin retention. This onion has a delicious flavor and is great for cooking!

The World's Best Airports for Business Air Travel
The increasing time spent at airports worldwide by travellers means that these international hubs are no longer an unfortunate necessity of business air travel.
Competition to provide the best leisure offering has gathered pace in the past ten tears, with airports aiming to provide the best overall customer experience while maximising how much money visitors spend in the terminals.
Here, we take a closer look at the top 3 airports worldwide in Skytrax's 2019 ranking:
Changi Airport – Singapore
For the seventh consecutive year, Singapore's Changi Airport has taken first place.
Changi Airport is world-famous for its stunning architecture, luxurious facilities, plentiful range of dining options, extensive shopping opportunities and smooth operations.
The airport's most recent, and by far its most dazzling attraction, is its 'Jewel'. The 'Jewel' is a toroidal glass and steel structure that houses a lush four-storey tiered garden, more than 280 retail and dining outlets, a short stay hotel and a multi-screen IMAX theatre. But most impressively of all perhaps is its 140-foot tall rain vortex, now the world's tallest indoor waterfall. This is all located close to Terminal 1 before you've even set foot in the airport!
Once inside the terminals, travellers praise Changi Airport for its lack of queue's, seamless operations and the ease in which passengers can move through the airport something that is so often lacking in the majority of airports.
Haneda Airport – Tokyo
Tokyo Haneda Airport comes in second on Skytrax's ranking. Haneda Airport may lack the elaborate amenities of Singapore's Changi Airport, however, it is highly regarded for its stylish appearance, efficient systems and incredible food offering.
You may want to get to the airport a few hours earlier just to eat your way around the various impressive outlets. You will find multiple restaurants that have city centre counterparts in which you would usually queue for hours, including two of the best-known ramen bars in Tokyo, Setagaya and Rokurinsha.
Haneda Airport also offers a faux traditional street market, where you can feast on a variety of Japanese delicacies including sushi, ramen, pork cutlets and 'fried things on sticks'!
Aside from the food, the airport boasts a wide range of shops, an arcade parlour and a huge open-air observation deck where you can watch the planes and get some fresh air.
Incheon International Airport – South Korea
Third on our list, and notably another Asian airport, is South Korea's Incheon International Airport. Incheon could be the most efficient airport on the list, with airport authorities claiming that average departure time takes 19 minutes, compared with a worldwide average of 60 minutes.
There is plenty to enjoy pre-flight at Incheon Airport, with its own golf course, spa, private sleeping rooms, indoor ice skating rink, casino, indoor gardens and Museum of Korean Culture.
