Several freshmen expected to see playing time
tbuckley2@theadvertiser.com
T.J. Posey, now running No. 2 behind Kevin Fouquier at Mike linebacker, "for sure" will play as a true freshman this season, UL coach Mark Hudspeth said Monday.
The Alabaman, though, isn't the only Ragin' Cajun possibility for playing as a true freshman.
Hudspeth said during his weekly media gathering that other candidates include slot receiver/kick returner Gabe Fuselier, defensive lineman Taboris Lee and defensive back Travis Crawford.
"Those (besides Posey) are the three true freshmen," Hudspeth said, "that could play and could play early – maybe on special teams, and then work their way into playing time on the offensive and defensive sides of the ball.
"Not guaranteed, but those are three that are looking like they may be far enough along to help us."
Hudspeth, whose Cajuns open Saturday night against Southern, also said defensive lineman LaDarrius Kidd is another true freshman who "if something happened we'd be able to rely on."
Posey, meanwhile, has moved ahead of senior Trae Johnson as redshirt sophomore Fouquier's top backup, according to a two-deep chart released Monday.
"Posey is a little bit ahead," Hudspeth said. "Trae's right there, though."
KICK-RETURN CANDIDATES: Hudspeth previously indicated Montrel Carter and Devin Scott were his top two kick-return candidates.
On Monday, though, he said Carter would handle Saturday's first kick to the Cajuns and Darius Hoggins the second, with Scott and Fuselier both still possibilities.
PERSONNEL MATTERS: A few personnel matters:
— With school starting Monday, kicker Carlos Alvarez has rejoined the team. He didn't take part in preseason camp.
Previously a scholarship player who appeared in three 2011 games, Alvarez – from West St. Mary High – wasn't with UL last season.
— Hudspeth said linebacker Darzil Washington "will not be cleared for this week" by the NCAA Clearinghouse, and that the Cajuns are "still waiting on transcripts."
Washington, from Hahnville High, played the past two seasons at jucos in California and Arizona and signed in prior years with both Texas A&M and Hawaii.
— Darryl Johnson, a defensive lineman from Morgan City High who signed last February, is being greyshirted and won't enroll until January, Hudspeth said Monday.
— Malik Williams, a receiver/defensive back from Jennings High who signed in February, has left the team. He hadn't been taking part in preseason camp, but Hudspeth announced the departure for the first time Monday.
ADIDAS UNIFORMS: Saturday's game will mark the first time the Cajuns get to wear their new Adidas uniforms. Russell was their previous apparel provider.
"These uniforms we're gonna showcase, I think the fans are really gonna like them. They're a very clean look," Hudspeth said. "But they will see a lot of different looks as the season goes along. Some of the uniforms are still in production, since the contract was signed a little late."
Among UL's new Adidas equipment are gloves that, when palms are put together, spell out "Cajuns."
Hudspeth said Adidas also has some "neat things" planned for Tuesday-night ESPN2-televised games in October. The Cajuns have two such games, Oct. 14 at Texas State and Oct. 21 at home against Arkansas State.
"But I'm a traditionalist, and … we're always gonna be traditional in a lot of sense," Hudspeth said. "But, also, we've got some surprises up our sleeves for our players that they're not even gonna find out about until gameday.
"I like holding a little bit back for those guys, because everyone likes opening up Christmas presents."
Hudspeth on Monday recalled the look on Cajuns players' faces prompted by the mere sight of new black helmets for a 2011 win at Florida International.
"You'd have thought the guys had won the lottery," he said.
CROWD COUNT: Including new end-zone seating, Cajun Field's listed capacity has risen from 31,000 to 36,900. The facility's record crowd is 41,357 for UL's 2009 win over Southern.
"If we don't blow that out of the water," Hudspeth said, "I'll be shocked."
Any potential blowout may not too big, however.
According to a UL official Monday, Lafayette's fire marshal has capped stadium capacity at around 42,500.
RCAF FUNDS: The Ragin' Cajun Athletic Foundation for the first time has surpassed the $2 million mark in annual unrestricted donations, UL officials said Monday.
"What a feat – not only for our university, for our athletic department, but for our community for the way they have reached out and supported our athletic program," Hudspeth said.
BENSON'S SCHEDULE: Sun Belt Conference commissioner Karl Benson has a busy travel schedule this week.
Benson said Monday he'll be at Georgia State's ESPNU-televised game against Abilene Christian on Wednesday night in Atlanta, at UL Monroe's ESPNU-televised home game against Wake Forest on Thursday night and at Appalachian State's game Saturday at Michigan.
LAGNIAPPE: Single-game tickets for UL's Sept. 6 home game against Louisiana Tech go on sale at 10 a.m. Monday, online only via Ticketmaster since it's a holiday. Tickets for that also will be sold at the Cajundome box office starting Sept. 2. … Matt Stewart (play-by-play) and ex-Auburn offensive lineman Cole Cubelic (analyst) will call UL vs. Southern for ESPN3. … Two UL undrafted free agents have been waived by NFL teams trimming their rosters – tight end Ian Thompson, who had been working at fullback, by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday and receiver Darryl Surgent by the Kansas City Chiefs on Monday.


Are you planning a big road trip this summer, well you owe it yourself I'm sure, so let's make sure you gear up properly! Whether you are taking your first adventure to Havasu falls at the Grand Canyon or staying in-state to visit the waves of sands at the Sand Dunes near Alamosa, Colorado, you are going to need the cargo space and the room to bring all of your friends along. That's why we are suggesting you choose the 2017 Lincoln MKX.
The cargo space is above average, allowing for 37.2 cubic feet of anything you need to haul, and then some. When the rear seats are folded down, cargo space expands to 70 cubic feet. Leg room is in the MKX is a good 2.8 inches more than the MKC for a total space of 39.6 inches of leg space. Don't be afraid to invite your taller friends along on your journey, because there are 39.2 inches if head space too.
The 2017 Lincoln MKX is perfect for those fun-family vacations or those friend-ventures. Aside from the fact that it seats five people comfortably, and a cargo space large enough for your teenage daughters 18 suitcases, and then some, the MKX is a recommended model for another reason, the price tag. If you are in the search for a practical vehicle, with lots of space, and something that is budget-friendly, the MKX is the luxury mid-size SUV for you.
The MKX can include all of the best features as well as upgraded trim levels while still remaining under $40K. Did we mention that $40K could include a 22-way contour massage option? Hmm… better ask your dealer about that one! And while you're relaxing in the massage chairs, you'll experience a quiet cabin space courtesy of the noise-canceling features provided by Lincoln. Outside noise while on the road, won't be able to make it inside.
Then there is the technology. I mean, you could have conversations with your buddies during your time on the road, but if you're in the car for 10+ hours, you may need a little space from them too. Not to worry, the Lincoln MKX is equipped with everything a passenger needs to stay entertained. The SYNC 3 infotainment is available as an option as well as Apple CarPlay or Android Auto syncing with 8-speaker Bose Surround-System – you may think you are in a movie theatre. Specifically, the XT5 offers 4G-LTE WiFi hot spot. Basically, there is enough tech in the car to keep your kids quiet for hours!
If you are worried about safety and reliability, there is no doubt you can feel confident driving this SUV down the road. When equipped with AWD, the Lincoln MKX gets a perfect five-star overall rating according to National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The standard features for the base model of the MKX include the rearview camera and rear parking sensors, but you can add blind spot detection and rear cross traffic alerts for the Select trim. Reliability comes above average in comparison to other vehicles getting a 3.5 out of five-star rating.
There is no doubt, that this could be the luxury vacation vehicle of your dreams if you play your cards right. Our recommendation is that you talk to your local dealer about the options and which MKX model works for you (the Black Label trim level – just saying).
Did we also mention it's pretty?
To test drive the 2017 Lincoln MKX vehicle, call or visit your local Phil Long Lincoln dealer in Colorado Springs. You can also view your online inventory to see our current selection.

Mal Blum and the Blums perform at Club Cafe Thu., March 1.
Mal Blum has an amazing laugh, the kind of warm laugh that makes you start to chuckle along as well. And with Blum's delightful sense of humor, there's no shortage of laughter while City Paper chats with Blum on the phone from their home in New York City.
"Spooky things happen when I'm around. I always felt different than other living people, and one day I saw a ghost on TV, and I thought, 'That's a possibility, I could just be a ghost.' I haven't quite figured it out, so I'm using paranormal as an umbrella term," jokes Blum, a nonbinary transgender musician, who uses they/their pronouns and who is often quizzed about their identity.
"I have ADHD, so I will derail this conversation," promises Blum playfully.
We only digress a bit to talk about one of Blum's loves besides being a musician — watching television. Currently Blum's Twitter name is Mal ~sad boy juliette barnes~ Blum, in homage to Juliette Barnes on the television series Nashville.
Blum grew up in a household where Billy Joel was their mother's musician of choice, while their father favored the Beach Boys.
Blum is a folk-meets-punk-meets-pop musician whose art is representative of their experience, both as somebody who is nonbinary transgender and mentally ill. As a result, it's hard not to feel like the music they write is an intimate conversation between friends, a confession of heartaches and fears.
And Blum is also quite accessible via their social-media accounts, namely their hilarious and honest Twitter feed. But being so unguarded leaves the door open to let a lot of folks in. Luckily, Blum finds that being so open isn't too risky.
"Some of my [musician] friends who maybe have less interaction with their fans on social media still deal with the same level of intrusion — that one [out] of every hundred people who will step over a boundary, which is about the same for me. I don't know if it's about access. But if you're making yourself a figure for mental health, it's true that people can project things on you," Blum says.
On this next tour, Blum will hit the road as Mal Blum and the Blums, the first full-band tour in a few months after a string of solo outings.
As a band, the Blums' energy is vibrant and fun, transforming raw and vulnerable songs into celebratory parties of survival and joy.
"[Performing with] the band definitely helps. I can tell you after a few months of solo touring, it gets a lot darker without the band," laughs Blum.
Humor is a big component of Blum's coping methods, something that thrives when they get to be on the road with their best friends, playing rock gigs.
Ask Blum about their writing process, and they'll be frank.
"It's not very disciplined, if I'm being honest with you," says Blum. "I write mostly when I need to get something out.
Mal Blum and the Blums have recently completed an album though.
The album was recorded with Joe Reinhart, of Hop Along, at The Headroom recording studio in Philadelphia.
When CP asks if Blum ever anticipated being a full-time musician as a teen, as they sat in the car listening to folk and blues on the radio with their dad, they responds with a definitive yes.

Texas on the Potomac
Sen. John Cornyn backs moratorium on earmarks
By Stewart Powell on November 30, 2010 at 4:10 PM
Sen. John Cornyn, R-San Antonio, is faulting the Senate for failing to adopt a three year moratorium on so-called budget earmarks that lawmakers use to designate federal spending on selected projects.
Senate photo
The Senate voted 56 to 39 to reject the proposed moratorium &#151 including eight Republicans.
The proposal would have allowed any senator to block legislation that included proposed spending on pet projects or tax breaks for selected entities.
Both Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison, R-Dallas, and Cornyn voted in favor of the moratorium.
"The message from voters in November could not have been clearer: they want Democrats and Republicans to work together to stop out-of-control federal spending," said Cornyn, a second-term Republican.
"Today's vote shows that many of my colleagues won't even take the first step of adopting a moratorium on earmarks" &#151 a process that "has been abused for years and has become a symbol of Washington's addiction to spending."
Cornyn said it was "disappointing that so many of my colleagues still refuse to join us on this moratorium, which would show the American people we are beginning to rein in reckless spending and debt."
Cornyn did not name his Republican colleagues.
But Republicans who voted against the moratorium were Utah Sen. Bob Bennett; Mississippi Sen. Thad Cochran; Maine Sen. Susan Collins; Oklahoma Sen. James Inhofe; Indiana Sen. Richard Lugar; Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski; Alabama Sen. Richard Shelby; and Ohio Sen. George Voinovich.

A Very Modern Preservationist
In the last year there has been a great Nairn revival – I would have loved to buy him a pint and hear him speak unpretentiously about his love of architecture
Laura Freeman
Irreverent tour guide: Ian Nairn had nothing but contempt for jargon (image: Penguin Press)
It is a most unusual eulogy. There is no congregation, only a BBC cameraman. The church pews have been smashed, the panelling ripped from the walls. The prayer cushions are filthy with dust and losing their stuffing. And the preacher, dressed in suit and tie rather than cassock and collar, has taken to the pulpit to pay tribute to the life, not of a person, but of a building.
"Bolton, St Saviour's in the East, Deane Road," he begins. "One of their noblest churches — and now look at it! Pews flattened. I don't quite know how you would categorise the vandalism of the yobbos who did this."
The preacher, speaking with a furious tremor, was Ian Nairn. There was no fiercer 20th-century defender of Britain's buildings and landscapes and no more fire-and-brimstone critic of the architects and town planners who had destroyed them.
In his writing and broadcasting, he appealed to his audience in simple, direct terms. Nairn, a man who could out-drink Falstaff, had none of the pretensions of the architecture critic, only the catching enthusiasm of a man who could lead you on a walking tour of a city, then take you for a pint afterwards at its best-preserved Victorian pub.
Self-taught, neither public school nor Oxbridge, Nairn made his name with a splenetic essay published in the Architectural Review in 1955 with the title: "Outrage".
It described a drive (Nairn's Morris Minor later became as much a star of his BBC series as its owner) from Southampton to Carlisle, while lamenting the "steamrollering of place . . . into one mediocre pattern". Nairn, a Jeremiah, imagined a future when "the edges of Southampton will look like the edges of Carlisle". Our landscape was in danger of becoming a great homogenised, continuous mess of pylons, signs, roads, fences, petrol stations, roundabouts, and suburban cul-de-sacs. This he christened "Subtopia".
Essays, books and BBC series followed — sometimes extolling, sometimes lamenting the appearance of our towns and countryside. He was a critic for the Observer, the Telegraph and the Sunday Times and contributed to the Pevsner guides to Surrey, where he was brought up, and Sussex. He died in 1983, a week before his 53rd birthday, of cirrhosis of the liver — the sad result of too many afternoons in the St George's Tavern in Pimlico (his local) and the pubs of Bolton, Liverpool, Newcastle, and the rest.
There followed three decades when his books, essays and documentaries were neglected. In the last year, however, there has been a great Nairn revival.
First, an edition of essays: Ian Nairn: Words in Place, edited by Gillian Darley and David McKie. Then, a BBC documentary: The Man Who Fought the Planners: The Story of Ian Nairn. Told through archive footage of Nairn's own programmes, it is riveting. Once you have heard Nairn speak, you cannot read his essays without hearing his terse, interrogative voice, quavering with rage or on the edge of tears as he contemplates some new visual assault.
Notting Hill Editions have continued the restoration of Nairn with a new edition of Nairn's Towns. It should be kept in the glove box of every car and consulted should the driver ever find himself in Newcastle, Sheffield, Cardiff or Plymouth with an hour to spare. At a time when politics and the media are attacked for their myopic focus on London, Nairn's tribute to the overlooked buildings of Britain's second, third, and indeed, fourth, fifth and 17th cities, is a robust riposte to the notion that the capital is the only place of any merit.
Penguin, joining the charge, have republished Nairn's London with its original 1966 cover showing the author, portly, smiling, tie skew-whiff, leaning out the driver's window of a red Routemaster bus.
The new edition of Nairn's Towns is prefaced with an excellent introduction by Owen Hatherley. Nairn was "too modernist for the preservationists, too much a preservationist for the modernists, he was too ambiguous, urban and bitter to become a Betjeman, too sophisticated and reflective for a Simon Jenkins". His BBC programmes "all involve Nairn rambling round various locations and very obviously making it up as he goes along".
In the essays, Nairn's prose is clubbable, confiding, outraged and purple. At Canterbury Cathedral "your head is drawn up and back as though you were in a half-nelson"; the Birmingham Council House is "as full of unexpected things as a plum cake"; the architect J.A. Hansom "was to drop enormous overblown Gothic Roman Churches round England like ripe peaches". Nairn wrote that the decline in the fortunes of Charles Rennie Mackintosh could be put down to "increasing cantankerousness, decreasing commissions, increasing whisky, and decreasing hope".
The Gothicising architect Augustus Pugin "was, literally, insane with Gothic enthusiasm . . . When he had too little money the result was tawdry, and when he had too much money the crockets went to his head."
Nairn has nothing but contempt for buzzwords and jargon: "urban renewal" meant "replacing lively old dirt with dead new cleanness". He has a knack, too, of damning with faint praise: "St John's Wood is a light, pleasant affair that hurts nobody."
His selection of buildings worthy of inclusion is catholic. The gents' loos of the Windsor Bars pub in Birmingham are commended to visitors ("the Ladies, I am told, is nowhere near as good") and the Penguin Pool at London Zoo is discussed with the same seriousness as Manchester Town Hall.
He returns to the Zoo in Nairn's London. "It would be a good place . . . simply to drown one's indignation at human imbecility and the antics of the rest of Nature's jokers. After all, it costs no more than the price of a scotch and soda, which is a more usual remedy. And if the baboons and sea-lions don't work, you can always have the scotch and soda anyway, in the Zoo's bar." Sightseeing was only fun if there were drinking stops along the way.
He wrote that the book was only his list of the best things in London, and wasn't to be consulted as a definitive guide. He used to joke that he would have put his wife, Judy Perry, into the book "had she only been made of brick or stucco".
He is scathing about the National Gallery — "a set of good porticoes and bad domes, badly arranged" — and nostalgic for the old Soho: "The tarts are off the streets now. Instead there are traffic wardens, taking up the same kind of stance but not looking nearly so inviting."
One of the pleasures of the book, if you live in London, is looking up your own part of town. My nearest pub gets its own entry. It is "dark and plushy and glowing" and the atmosphere is "somewhere between a theatre bar, a club, and a Baroque library".
Like many other Nairnites, I would have liked to buy him a pint and hear him speak about the medieval "chares" or steps of Newcastle — a favourite subject. I fear, though, that he would have drunk — and talked — me under the table.

Romping Around the Great Wen
In Tobias Smollett's great, romping 18th-century novel The Expedition of Humphry Clinker, our hero Matthew Bramble, a country squire, leaves his adored estate Brambleton Hall and spends a season in London. Writing to his doctor, he asks what would possess a man to live in a city where "every corner teems with fresh objects of detestation and disgust".
His lodgings are frowzy, the air putrefying. Disease and pestilence are only kept at bay by the acid clouds of sea-coal burnt in every hearth and furnace. The locals are ugly, sallow and languid compared to the ruddy swains of Brambleton country.
Sleep is impossible as the watchmen bawl the time down the streets every hour and knock thunderously at every door. Unrested, he starts out of bed at five o'clock because some dreadful fellow is shouting "pease pudding" beneath his window.

Governor Richard Hughes and the Newark Report
Governor Richard Hughes' Select Commission for the Study of Civil Disorder in New Jersey: Looking Back 50 Years
by Kristoffer Shields, March 2018
Governor Richard J. Hughes
This year marks the 50th anniversary of the release of the findings of the study commission formed by then-Governor Richard J. Hughes in the wake of civil disorders in Newark and several other New Jersey cities in July 1967. The group's analysis was prescient and merits revisiting now.
On August 8, 1967, Governor Hughes officially announced the creation of the Governor's Select Commission for the Study of Civil Disorder in New Jersey, which would come to be known as the "Lilley Commission," after its chairman, New Jersey Bell
Telephone C.E.O. Robert Lilley. In February 1968, after six months of investigation, interviews, and document review, the commission issued its final report—a nearly 200 page document with analysis and policy recommendations.
The ultimate impact of the commission and its report is up for debate. While it led to multiple investigations of local government corruption and a number of its recommendations were adopted, many others languished. Eventually many joined the late historian Clement Price in concluding that it was, unfortunately "all but forgotten."[i]
But the Lilley Report should not be forgotten. By chance, as the 50th anniversary approached, I became an accidental first-time reader of the report. A friend of the Center on the American Governor who is working on a biography of Raymond A. Brown (whose career included service as Vice-Chair of this commission) sent us a copy, thinking we might be interested in Governor Hughes's decision to name two former governors to the commission.
Reading the report in 2017/2018, I was struck by how moving and devastating its words remain. It is in some ways—particularly in choice of some of its language—rooted in its time, but in so many more ways it is still startlingly relevant to numerous current local and national challenges, particularly the remaining stains of racial discrimination. It is also a shining example of how gubernatorial commissions—though often maligned—can produce lasting and valuable work if we are willing to listen.
As the state's chief executive, a governor inevitably performs a number of public roles. One of the most important and unpredictable is to respond in times of crisis. These are moments when a governor can rise above – or at least depart from – the party platform and inaugural agenda that accompanied him or her into office.
In August 1967, Governor Hughes, a year and a half into his second term, stood at such a crossroads. Just one month earlier—from July 12 – 17, 1967—the state had experienced a series of violent uprisings, most prominently in Newark, its largest city. With 26 dead and over ten million dollars in property damage to residences and small businesses, both the City and the entire state needed to know what had happened and why. As Hughes put it at the time, "The aftermath of this deeply troubling eruption gives rise to a fixed determination that never again, if it is within our capacity to prevent it, shall such a tragedy occur."
Defining what had happened and how similar future events might be prevented would not be simple. The protests and ensuing violence in Newark began after reports of police brutality against an African-American taxi driver pulled over for a traffic violation. But the causes of the unrest went much deeper, rooted in years of racial discrimination, neglect, and corruption. A complete review of what had happened—and what had exacerbated the situation—would require serious and uncomfortable questions about the actions of city officials including Newark Mayor Hugh Addonizio, the Newark police, the State Police, and Governor Hughes himself.
Three and a half weeks after the violence ended, amidst continuing debate and discussion, Governor Hughes announced his decision to appoint the Lilley Commission to raise and attempt to address these complicated questions.
Governor Robert B. Meyner
Governor Alfred E. Driscoll
The composition of the commission would be crucial to giving it the skills and credibility to accomplish its complex goals. Among those selected by Hughes were a number of prominent New Jerseyans, including the two governors who had directly preceded him, Alfred Driscoll (R, 1947-1954) and Robert Meyner (D, 1954-1962). One was a Democrat and one a Republican and together they had led the state for 16 years. Their presence lent the commission political heft that would be apparent to all and also, perhaps, help set a precedent for former New Jersey governors to remain engaged in state policy—a tradition that Governor Hughes and most of those who have followed him have continued to this day.
At least as important, the commission also included members of the Newark community, among them prominent African-American attorney Raymond A. Brown, who served as the vice-chair, and Oliver Lofton, an African-American attorney who had represented John Smith, the victim of the beating by Newark police that had set the tragic events in motion. Finally, the choice of the commission staff's executive director proved to be crucial: former federal prosecutor Sanford Jaffe, who would pursue the inquiry with the experience and mindset shaped by his years of professional prosecutorial experience.
In February 1968, six months after Governor Hughes created the commission, it was ready to release its report. To the surprise of some, the report not only described the group's investigation of what happened in Newark, Plainfield, and Englewood in July 1967, but it also provided a 100-page review of the structural conditions that had led to the violence, including (among others) sections on failures in the public school system, housing and employment discrimination, and police and government corruption.
We at the Center on the American Governor mark the 50th anniversary of the release of the Lilley Report by highlighting it as an example of a governor's use of gubernatorial power during a time of crisis, but also as a reminder of how deep-seated and enduring many of the issues it discusses remain.
The full text of the report (and transcripts of many of the interviews the commission conducted) is available online via the Rutgers University Law School. For more information on the report and Newark in the summer of 1967, see the resources below.

[i] It was, perhaps in part overshadowed by the federal "Kerner Report" released the following month. That report, commissioned by President Lyndon Johnson and led by another former governor—Otto Kerner of Illinois—also provided a thorough analysis of the root of violence in urban settings around the country in 1967. It became the most commonly-cited report on American urban violence in the 1960s. Clement Price quote from "Newark Remembers the Summer of 1967, So Should We All."

Much has been written about the Newark uprising in 1967 as well as about the Lilley Commission itself. Ten years ago, in February 2008, the Rutgers Institute on Ethnicity, Culture, and the Modern Experience held an event commemorating the 40th anniversary of the commission's report titled, "We Should Have Listened: The 1968 Lilley Commission's New Vision of New Jersey." A number of resources were created for that event, which are also included below. We would love to hear from you if you have other sources to suggest for inclusion.

Center on the American Governor Interview Excerpts
In addition to materials in the Hughes archive, many subjects interviewed by the Center on the American Governor for other archives also had experience with Governor Hughes. Some of these interviews included discussion of the Lilley Commission and Newark 1967. The interviews with Sanford Jaffe, the executive director of the commission, are especially illuminating. While the Center on the American Governor recorded four interviews with Jaffe, he discusses the commission in most detail in the April 23, 2008 interview, beginning at 35:38 (see clip to the right).
Link to excerpts of these interviews are below.

The wikipedia's article on Baird has always struck me as very stubby. What little information it has is incomplete or misleading.
As with the article on Sir John Franklin, I'm leaving the WP version around as a scaffold, but as the new materials are added, I will be removing most of it.
My knowledge of Baird is from my viewpoint as a researcher on the history of mass media -- if there are any electrical engineers among the editors, I would welcome some attention to those more technical aspects of Baird's achievements.
Richard, thanks for the note -- delighted to have someone with your expertise interested in this article!
I'd like to see more here -- depth, details, and some accounting of new understandings of Baird made possible by Donald McLean's restored recordings, as as his book and the recent biography by Baird's son Malcolm (written with Anthony Kamm). If done well, this could be a candidate for article approval at some point fairly early on in the project, which I think would be great! Brief explanations of concepts such as 'scanning,' 'bandwidth,' and 'interleaving' would be one thing much needed.
Richard, excellent emendations. It's important to have the distinction between electro-mechanical and electronic television early on, I agree. Baird, though, from what I have read in recent studies, was in fact not as troubled by the shift away from mechanical TV as it's been made out, and in fact did some singular work on electronic television on his own after the eventual failure of his former company, eventually coming up with an electronic color picture tube that far exceeded the standards of the broadcast signals of his day, approaching near to what we'd now think of as an HDTV standard (though still analog, not digital). I'd like to find some way to reference this, so that Baird won't just be lumped away as a purely mechanical-TV man ... but I think this could and should come later in the article (I have put a short mention of it there already, I think, but maybe this could be expanded and strengthened).
I think Baird's Telechrome tube represents an interesting step on the way to the development of the shadowmask tube, but I doubt it could ever have been a practical display device on its own. I agree this and any other of his later inventions belong later in the article.

Hawaii is dominated by Democrats who cannot question obvious falsehoods, like lone gunman. Most of the political atrocities that have plagued our times have not been carried out by lone gunman, from the assassination of Lincoln, to the death of JFK, to Sandy Hook, to the Las Vegas Shootings to the recent New Zealand Mosque shooting. All these, and many more, were staged events, using a patsy to take the blame.
In their denial, in their lack of questioning, in their ring in the nose march toward new age utopian fantasy, Hawaiian Democrats seem to subscribe to every New World Order talking point. That is, they are globalists.
With that pattern, we shouldn't be surprised that some of these high minded liberals (lacking common sense) would oppose the only thing that keeps us free of state tyranny, the Second Amendment, our right to bear arms and be able to defend ourselves.
Ending the Second Amendment means gun confiscation. In a state where the police are notoriously corrupt, this means only the state would have guns, and citizens would have no ability to fight criminals or state criminals.
We need to brace for gun confiscation, infants receiving implanted chips "for their safety", 5G wireless sickness in every community, glyphosate cancers mis-reported, all that. It could really happen. It is time to become vocal like the women in above video, not just read this article and sigh.
Tragically, these Democratic lawmakers don't understand that their leaders are in a cult club. The campaign manager for Hillary was Tony Podesta!!!!!
in light of the numerous tragic mass shootings at schools, work places, and public events, [all false flag events] this body believes that it is necessary to repeal or amend the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution.


They took us to local restaurants so we could understand the area. Their choice was excellent, and we went back to Al Born twice as it was very good. They also recycle glass, paper, cans and plastic.
The peaceful setting with all the lovely cats and kittens that are being so kindly cared for. The lovely swimming pool and great cycling on and off road. Day in Barcelona, well worth doing and actually this works very easily using the direct bus. �20 euros return ticket.
Yes, encouraged to walk and bike, local riding school, restaurants recommended, encouraged to use towels economically etcLow key, simply but beautifully restored and renovated hotel building.

#
# This script is also a decent example of repository maintenance using

# The timestamp of the initial vendor branch revision will be adjusted

Q: Asp.Net Core HTTPContext and RewritePath I am converting over an old HttpModule into a new MiddleWare and want to know what is the correct way for Rewriting the Path in the MiddleWare.
The old module uses this:
context.RewritePath(path, string.Empty, queryPart);

A: For simple rules, you should be able to just alter the request.Path [, Scheme, Host, QueryString] in the context on its way through your middleware; something like below, and ensure your middleware runs early-enough in the pipeline:
internal class PathRewritingMiddleware
{
    private readonly RequestDelegate _next;

    public PathRewritingMiddleware(RequestDelegate next)
    {
        _next = next;
    }

    public Task Invoke(HttpContext context)
    {
        context.Request.Path = "elsewhere/" + context.Request.Path;
        return _next(context);
    }
}

That said, don't, as ASP.NET Core has already thought of all of this for you.

Jezera on Murter Island is known as one of best-kept towns in Croatia, a place of fishermen and seafarers boasting a crystal-clear sea, authentic customs, quiet stone-paved streets and a rich past dating back to antiquity. The town has received the Croatian Tourist Board's Blue Flower, the country's most prestigious urban landscaping award, for five years in a row. ACI Marina Jezera – one of the most awarded and eco-friendliest nautical centres in northern Dalmatia and a proud winner of the Blue Flag – is located in the south of Jezera Bay. It is sheltered by a breakwater on its eastern side, and is open all year round.


The first baby teeth come into the mouth are the two bottom front teeth. You will notice this when your baby is about six to eight months old. Next to follow will be the four upper front teeth and the remainder of your baby's teeth will appear periodically. They will usually appear in pairs along the sides of the jaw until the child is about 2-1/2 years old.
At around 2-1/2 years old, your child should have all 20 teeth. Between the ages of six and seven, the first permanent teeth will begin to erupt. Some of the permanent teeth replace baby teeth and some don't. Don't worry if some teeth are a few months early or late as all children are different.

It takes three to seven years for tree stumps to naturally decompose on their own. However, the actual time will depend on your location, environment, climate, and type of tree. Usually, the lower the stump is cut, the faster it will rot. It can accelerate the decay of excess roots by allowing shoots that grow from the stump to reach approximately 1 foot in height before cutting them off the stump.
This causes roots to deplete their resources quickly so they start to break down faster. In most cases, wait four to five years for the root system to deteriorate before planting another tree in the soil that was beneath the foliage of the old tree. Environmental factors and the species of tree will ultimately decide how long it takes for a stump to rot in the Melbourne area. Yes, you can lend a hand by poisoning it and covering it with organic matter, but the wait will continue to be long.
The size of the stump will also play an important role. Making an educated guess, it would take approximately 5 to ten years for an aspen stump the size of a plate to naturally decay or rot in the soil. The same size oak stump can take twice as long this time or longer. That is why oak beams continue to circle in 500-year-old buildings.
Ultimately, the quickest way to remove a tree stump and return the garden to a flat surface is the method of grinding the stumps. If the tree was located in a backyard or playground, these depressed areas can create holes for people or pets to enter and fall. The easiest way to get rid of shallow tree rot after grinding stumps is to wait for them to pass and allow them to decompose naturally. Tree roots take a long time to decompose, but most of the material will be shredded by a large machine.
When it comes to rotting a tree stump in Oregon, the rate of decay depends on many different factors, such as the tree species, the size of the tree, and the climate and weather conditions. So how do you get rid of a tree stump? What's the best way? Well, the answer lies in the original suggestion to let it rot, but do it quickly. Until the nutrients stored in the roots of the tree are exhausted, the stump will strongly resist putrefaction. The best time to start accelerating the decay process of a tree stump is soon after cutting it down.
Tree roots will die after the stumps are ground, but they would already be dead after the tree was removed. For more than 30 years, Ron's Tree Service has been providing professional tree pruning, tree removal, stump milling and firewood to customers in Minneapolis and the surrounding area. Alternatively, according to Rutgers, the shepherd tree or Boscia Albitrunca has the deepest roots averaging around two hundred and thirty feet deep. Because trees are made of dense wood, nature's decomposers take a long time to break it down into nutrients for the soil.

Stumped! What to do with dead tree?
Next postWhat happens if you dont remove a stump?
The fastest and most effective way to kill roots is with a chemical herbicide, as soon as the tree has been felled. Physically removing a stump from a tree is the quickest, but most laborious, way to get rid of it.
Vertical cracks, seams, dead branch stems, and large, old wounds suggest internal decay. Serious damage to the main trunk often justifies removing the tree.
Bypass hand scissors work like traditional scissors, with a blade that avoids a blunt side to cut the tree branch. Meyer prefers them to anvil scissors, which have a straight blade that closes over a flat edge.
D-49 Tree Service License Requirements To obtain a tree service license in California, you must demonstrate a minimum of 4 years of officer-level experience and pass a two-part state exam with the State Contractor Licensing Board.

The Central government has approved an additional assistance of Rs 546.21 crore to Karnataka, which was affected by floods and landslides in August, said an official statement on Monday.
A high-level committee meeting, chaired by Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh, approved the additional assistance of Rs 546.21 crore from the National Disaster Response Fund to Karnataka, affected by floods/landslides," said the statement from New Delhi.
Torrential rains, landslips, and floods during the southwest monsoon during August 14-22 wreaked havoc in seven districts of the southern state, including Kodagu, Hassan, Dakshina Kannada, Chikkamagaluru, causing extensive damage to infrastructure, public property, and crops, estimated to be about Rs 3,000 crore.
State Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy on August 24 sought Rs 2,000 crore interim relief from the Central government for relief and rehabilitation of flood victims in the old Mysuru region, south interior areas and Malnad region.
The Chief Minister on August 16 announced Rs 200-crore grant-in-aid for relief works in the flood-affected districts.

Taylor Wessing Photographic Portrait Prize 2014, National Portrait Gallery
Affectionate family portraits, subtle references to the history of art, and a worthy winner
by Florence HallettSunday, 16 November 2014
Winning portrait: Konrad Lars Hastings Titlow by David Titlow, 2014© David Titlow
It is hard to know whether the thematic and stylistic threads running through this year's Taylor Wessing Prize are evidence of some general shift in approach, or simply reflect the judges' tastes. In any case, where last year's shortlist featured stark portraits highlighting the tricky power relationships between photographer and subject, this year's competition tends towards something gentler and more empathetic – an altogether homelier sort of photography. Submitted by over 1,700 photographers from all over the world, including amateurs, students and well-known professionals, many of the most successful images, including the winner, are group portraits with an emphasis on family and friends.
Amongst the 59 entries selected for the final exhibition, there is a welcome departure from the camera as an interrogative tool, with a definite whiff of nostalgia in the frequent nods to a more domestic sort of photography that belongs in family albums or framed on mantelpieces. Laurence Cartwright's Dog and boy, 2013 (Pictured below), shows the photographer's son crouched next to a dog he befriended while on a family holiday. The boy is mimicking the dog's posture, still and alert, waiting to jump into the water after a stick or ball. It is beautifully composed, the symmetry of the two forms emphasising the bond between them, while the knowledge that in a minute, or even a second, one of them will move and this perfect scene will be lost forever, lends the scene an elegiac quality. It is an affectionate and humorous family picture, but in its wholesome depiction of a boy playing outside, immersed in nature in an endless summer, it expresses a wistful, universal idealism.
Sian Davey's family picnic hints knowingly at art historical antecedents, invoking the rich western tradition of paintings depicting people en plein air; like so many 18th-century images of figures at leisure in a pastoral idyll. The adults, absorbed in their game of backgammon, are oblivious to the bawling, naked child disrupting the centre of the composition, recalling the chubby putti so often present in Arcadia.
A number of photographs here have a real painterliness about them, with Ben Stockley's Ángel Nieto, 2013 an arrestingly beautiful portrait of a woman who, eyes downcast, has a face like a Raphael madonna. Photographed at work in what must be a noisy and busy kitchen, the portrait envelops her in stillness, recalling Vermeer's women absorbed in domestic duties.
David Titlow's winning portrait is also reminiscent of a Dutch genre painting, both in its depiction of a group completely absorbed, and in the wonderful light that bathes the photographer's baby son as he is introduced to the family dog (Main picture). The narrative of this central encounter, and the reactions of the adults seated around is made all the more legible and dynamic by the light falling from left to right, guiding our eye across the piece and emphasising the main compositional elements. While this lovely chiaroscuro effect emphasises the image's painterly quality, and suggests a degree of artfulness in its construction, we are told that this picture is an example of true photographic serendipity, a moment captured in the blink of an eye. In fact, Titlow's approach is touchingly old-fashioned; in the era of digital photography where images can be endlessly scrutinised and retaken he says, "You never really know what is going to happen – it's pure magic."
David Titlow's perfect photographic moment might well have earned him a degree of approval from legendary Magnum photographer Henri Cartier-Bresson, who coined the now ubiquitous phrase "the decisive moment" to describe his practice of making a picture "in the camera", at the moment the shutter clicks, with minimal adjustments made in the dark room. Interestingly enough, the most problematic image in the exhibition pays a sort of anti-homage to Cartier-Bresson. Horribly underexposed, and dispensing with mid-tones to highlights, Blerim Racaj's Indecisive Moment, 2013 is a curiously effective image, although its merits as a portrait are less certain (Pictured above).
Racaj's group of disenfranchised Kosovan youths drinking in the street was photographed over a long period, with the whole process heavily stage-managed to achieve the desired effect. Racaj simultaneously wanted to realise his own fully formed concept of how the picture would look, while intervening as little as possibly to minimise his subjects' awareness of the camera. Sure enough, there is a troubling disconnect between the photographer and his subjects, and the lack of any upper tonal register has a deadening effect – it is as if a fog has descended, isolating the subjects from the viewer. The effect of orchestrating the image over time also shows, with the action appearing more slowed down than frozen in time – the difference, perhaps, between a film still and a photograph. Does it say much about these individuals? I'm not sure. But as an attempt to portray a generation of young Kosovans facing a bleak and unpromising future, trapped in their own Indecisive Moment, it is both ambitious and disconcerting.

It would help if the author before it decides to writte on photography to learn a thing or two how to read an image. Her only way of seeing is through the prism of Bresson and that is pathetic, imagine her talking about Robert Frank's work :)

The references to Cartier-Bresson are specifically related to both Blerim Racaj's Indecisive Moment, and David Titlow's own comment about how his winning picture was made. Cartier-Bresson's methods and ideas about photography are in most ways utterly opposed to digital photography, making him an interesting, if perhaps slightly predictable, figure to invoke in current photographic practice. I confess you've lost me regarding Robert Frank.

Ward 7 Residents To Pull Petitions for Recall of Councilman Basheer Jones
By Sam Allard on Tue, Jul 10, 2018 at 1:50 pm
[image-1] A coalition of residents in Cleveland's Ward 7 say they are pulling petitions today to seek the recall of Councilman Basheer Jones, who narrowly defeated incumbent TJ Dow in 2017.
The coalition, according to a letter sent to the media Monday, is "fed up with" Jones' performance and the state of Ward 7.
"Councilman Jones has threatened residents and business owners in the ward," read the letter, "there are questions about whether or not he even lives in the ward and [we] don't like his overall aggressive leadership style."
Denise Sheldon, who sent the letter on the coalition's behalf, was not immediately available by phone to provide additional details or to confirm that petitions had been pulled.
Jones, however, told Scene that he would "love to sit down with" any resident who is concerned about the conditions in Ward 7.
"My office is always open," he said. "I take all criticism seriously. I love to hear criticisms, concerns, complaints and congratulation. If they have issues, let's figure it out together."
Jones said he wasn't sure who the coalition members were, and did not comment on whether he thought this came directly from TJ Dow's camp, though he did say that the criticisms, including the questions about his residency, were the same that his opponents were lofting during the campaign. (He defeated the residency challenge in court, he said, and maintains that it's a smear campaign coordinated by his opponents and paid strategists.)
"I believe that these [coalition members] want the best for their community," Jones said. "We might disagree on how to do that, but we all want what's best. [Dow's] supporters are very loyal to him. But I say, don't be loyal to the councilman — don't be loyal to Basheer. Be loyal to progress."
Jones said he believes that the contentiousness of the campaign trail — and of Dow's "dirty" attempt to transfer funds out of Ward 7 in an attempt to punish Jones — is largely in the rear view. He said he has worked to mend divides and build bridges since his first day in office.
The coalition of concerned residents was likely a small group of antagonists, Jones said. He doubted that they'd manage to collect the required number of signatures for a recall.
"But if they do," he said, "I look forward to the fight."

You have a 3 gallon bucket and a 5 gallon bucket as your only tools and you need exactly 4 gallons how would you go about getting the 4 gallons?
1. Fill 5 gallon bucket completely. 2. Place 3 gallon bucket into full 5gallon bucket to displace water, leaving 2 gallons. 3. Pour 2 gallons into 3 gallon bucket. Repeat 1 more time.
fill each bucket exactly halfway.
additionally, twist the question into a simple solution. 'if the 5 gallon bucket has fill lines, simply fill it to the 4 gallon mark'.
The interviewer specifies that there are no fill lines, and the measurement has to be exact (i.e. no guessing the halfway point of each bucket.
Is there any thing that you'd like to share with me that you couldn't share with the Product Application Specialist Supervisors? All of the questions asked were behavioral questions and a few walk me through your resume questions.
No. I wasn't really sure where the interviewer was leading me to with this question. However, it may have been relevant for someone who maybe had some issues that needed to accommodations to do the job.
Did they let you know that you didn't get the job? After onsite interview, I tried to follow up, never heard back, very frustrating.
Yes, I received a general email from HR stating I was not selected. However, I was told at the interview that there were 2 positions that they wanted to fill. So far they are still looking for someone.
How have you affected referrals with previous positions?
Managed admissions to dialysis clinics for 2 years.
Were you at the location for the specified time of work.
The "Pitch" - try to sell them something, a random object in the room. They may tell you to pick something, or they may ask for an object in particular. Or it may even be something that's not in the room, such as one of their products. Be familiar with the product line for the position you are interviewing for.
Most important thing is to not launch into a sales pitch, but to say something along the lines of "What are you looking for in this product? Are you replacing your current one? What improvements do you need? What are your paint points?"
This question was not relevant at all to the job description...so I glossed over it. "Yes, I understand the basics of how the internet gets connect via phone lines and Ethernet." Am I an engineer? No. So I wasn't going to go into it any further than that.
Do you have any experience with wireless phones?
It's a technical position so they quiz you on your knowledge of networking.
Just make sure you study up before you go in.
What was you greatest regret.
I answered a job I didn't take because I wasn't confident in myself. The position would have enabled me to be licensed in investments and insurance.
What kind of computer do you have.
this seems straight forward but many people couldnt get this one off the top of their heads.
Glassdoor has 966 interview questions and reports from Product Specialist interviews. Prepare for your interview. Get hired. Love your job.

Q: Getting DVD chapter timings I'm working on small DVD player (using DirectShow.Net), and require start time of a chapter with respect to it's title.
I'm looking for a way to find out the start time of a chapter within a title. Or may be the duration of each chapter within a title, which will allow me to calculate the start of any chapter by adding up the duration of chapters before it.
Any ideas?
I found .NET DVD Library, any one found it useful?


In the past, many PCB designers were confined to tools that dictated at which point in the design process that the Bill of Materials could be produced. But we know from years of experience that the Bill of Materials, or BOM, can change throughout the design process and the iterative change management is its own challenge. We believe the decisions should be up to you, while the repetitive aspects should be automated as much as possible, which is why we strive to offer tools that embrace flexible and agile options for PCB designers and other engineering professionals involved in the decision process.

Henrique de La Rocque Almeida (São Luís do Maranhão, 8 de agosto de 1912 — Rio de Janeiro, 16 de agosto de 1982) foi um advogado, jornalista e político brasileiro, filho de Marcelino Gomes de Almeida Júnior e Marieta de La Rocque Almeida. Foi casado com Maria Amélia Marinho (em 27 de setembro de 1949); o casal não deixou descendentes.

Formação acadêmica
Fez o curso primário na Escola Modelo em São Luís completando seus estudos secundários no Colégio Antônio Vieira dos jesuítas, e formou-se em Direito pela Faculdade de Direito do Rio de Janeiro (hoje UFRJ). Também cursou a Faculdade de Direito da Bahia.

Família
As origens da família La Rocque são dadas em Portugal, onde exerciam a atividade de comerciantes, mais especificamente na região na "Região do Porto". Apesar de terem vindo de Portugal para o Brasil, a origem do nome "La Rocque" vem da França, no sudoeste do país, em Gascone. A família estabeleceu-se primeiro na capitania de São Luís, no Maranhão, depois migrando para Grão-Pará.

O avô materno do Senador La Rocque foi Henrique de La Rocque Junior (Belém, Pará, 1849), responsável pela construção do, que é considerado um dos mais importantes cartões-postais de Belém do Pará, Mercado do Ver-o-Peso; cujo nome tem raízes na época colonial com a Casa do Haver-o-Peso, que ficava no mesmo local, e era lá que a mercadoria que vinha do interior era pesada para que fossem cobrados os impostos estabelecidos pela Coroa. La Rocque Junior venceu, em 1897, a concorrência pública para a construção do Mercado (então também conhecido como Mercado do Peixe ou Mercado de Ferro), esta autorizada pela lei municipal nº 173. Sua construção foi iniciada em 1899, próxima ao Mercado Municipal de Carnes ou Mercado Bolonha; seu estilo segue a estética francesa do Art Nouveau da Belle Époque. Foi inaugurado em 1901, e em 1977 foi tombado pelo IPHAN como pertencente ao complexo arquitetônico e paisagístico do Ver-o-Peso (que possui 35 mil metros quadrados).

Seus pais se casaram em 11 de novembro de 1910 na cidade de Lourdes na França. Sua mãe foi Marieta de La Rocque (Belém, Pará, 16 de fevereiro de 1887 - São Luís, Maranhão 6 de maio de 1920) e seu pai Marcelino Gomes de Almeida Junior (São Luís, Maranhão, 1881 - Rio de Janeiro, 8 de janeiro de 1953), filho de Marcelino Gomes de Almeida e Anna Augusta de Almeida.

Biografia
Antes de ingressar na política, Henrique de La Rocque atuou como técnico de administração no Ministério da Fazenda, iniciando a função em 1934, além de ser também jornalista, cobrindo o cotidiano do Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF).

Foi chefe de um dos departamentos da Câmara de Reajustamento Econômico, além de ter assumido a presidência do IAPC (Instituto de Aposentadoria e Pensões dos Comerciários), entre fevereiro de 1951 e novembro de 1953, dando seus primeiros passos na política.

Faleceu no dia 16 de agosto de 1982, e foi sepultado às 15 horas do dia seguinte, 17, no Cemitério São João Batista, na cidade do Rio de Janeiro. Calcula-se que em média 700 pessoas compareceram ao sepultamento de La Rocque.

Carreira política
Foi eleito suplente de deputado federal pelo Distrito Federal em 1954 pelo PSP, Partido Social Progressista. Em outubro de 1958, enfim elegeu-se no cargo, dessa vez concorrendo por Maranhão. Conseguiu a reeleição em 1962. Tendo apoiado a Ditadura militar no Brasil, juntou-se à ARENA (Aliança Renovadora Nacional) em 1965, com o fim do pluripartidarismo à época (devido à emissão do Ato Institucional nº 2 em 27 de outubro de 1965).

Reelegeu-se deputado federal em 1966, ficando no cargo até 1974. Foi eleito senador da República pelo Maranhão de 1975 a 1982.

Com o encerramento do bipartidarismo no Brasil, juntou-se ao Partido Democrático Social (PDS) em maio de 1980. No mesmo ano, passou a exercer também o cargo de Ministro do Tribunal de Contas da União, nomeado pelo então presidente João Figueiredo, onde ficou até o seu falecimento, em 1982.

Além disso La Rocque Almeida exerceu as funções de Primeiro-Secretário da Câmara dos Deputados (durante cinco anos); Segundo-Secretário da Câmara dos Deputados (durante dois anos, com início em 1964); Presidente da Comissão de Redação da Câmara dos Deputados; Vice-Presidente da Comissão de Educação e Cultura (1975-1976); Presidente da Comissão de Constituição e Justiça;  e foi membro da Comissão de Redação da Câmara dos Deputados, membro efetivo das Comissões de Finanças e Legislação do Distrito Federal, e membro efetivo das Comissões de Legislação Social e de Serviço Público (1979-1980). Ao todo, La Rocque completou vinte e nove anos de atuação legislativa

Projetos convertidos em leis

 Lei no 6 497/77: "Altera as contribuições e pensões que serão concedidas aos Deputados Federais e Senadores pelo Instituto de Previdência dos Congressistas - IPC."
 Lei no 6 544/77: "Altera dispositivos do Código Penal Militar (Decreto-Lei nº 1 001, de 21 de outubro de 1969) e do Código de Processo Penal Militar (Decreto-Lei nº 1002, de 21 de outubro de 1969) e dá outras providências."
 Lei no 6 810/80: "Inclui entre os beneficiados pela Lei nº 6 554, de 21 de agosto de 1978, nos termos do diploma, os Ministros Togados, os Juízes Auditores e os Auditores Substitutos da Justiça Militar, e dá outras providências."

Ditadura e Processo de Redemocratização
Embora tenha apoiado a Ditadura iniciada com o Golpe Militar de primeiro de abril de 1964, sua posição após a instauração do regime ditatorial foi um tanto inconstante. Começando pelo fato que foi o primeiro a defender políticos perseguidos que estavam procurando asilo nas embaixadas. Segundo o Jornal do Brasil (em 16 de agosto de 1977), quando o processo de reabertura democrática era debatido, La Rocque manifestou apoio à abertura sob comando de Ernesto Geisel colocando que: "um homem forte como o presidente Geisel, desde que conte com o apoio dos políticos, poderá formular um projeto de reformas constitucional que concilie direitos individuais e segurança do Estado". Ao mesmo tempo defendia (não era o único a fazê-lo, mas acompanhado de outros parlamentares da Aliança Renovadora Nacional) que fosse reservado ao Presidente da República e ao regime poderes extraordinários, com a pretensão de assegurar o pleno direito a defesa dos cidadãos; tais poderes extraordinários incluíam a possibilidade de cassar mandatos e suspender direitos políticos. Da mesma forma, defendia que os banidos (por motivos políticos) que retornassem ao país poderiam ter suas penas diminuídas contando o tempo que tivessem passado no exterior enquanto também defendia que a (segundo o mesmo Jornal do Brasil, este da edição de 23 de janeiro de 1979) concessão de anistia a presos políticos deveria ser feita de forma restrita.

Homenagens
Em sua homenagem, a partir de 1997, o município de Mucuíba, localizado ao sul do Estado do Maranhão, passa a se chamar Senador La Rocque.

O fórum de justiça da cidade de Imperatriz, no estado do Maranhão, é denominado Fórum Ministro Henrique de La Rocque.

O palácio do governo do estado do maranhão no governo de Edison Lobão passou a se chamar Palácio Henrique de La Rocque.

1. Soft fault. The soft fault mainly refers to the controller fault of the High Low Temperature Test Chamber, including internal parameters, IS control and output signals for controlling the on and off of the solenoid valve.
2. System failure. System failure refers to the initial design of the refrigeration system. It also includes the high and low temperature test chambers caused by refrigerant leakage. The refrigerant leakage is often caused by the shaking or cooling of the copper tube during transportation and High Low temperature Test Chamber operation. The welding process is not refined and other reasons.
3. Hardware failure. Among them, there are components that may cause refrigeration such as hardware compressors and solenoid valves that are not cooled.
Our users can get an idea of what hardware damage is by listening and touching. If the compressor is faulty, the sound of the compressor will be abnormal or not working or the temperature of the compressor itself will be much higher than usual, and the solenoid valve will be faulty and other. The user of the component failure of the refrigeration is not very well mastered.
In addition, the damage of the controller and the control of the electronic components of the refrigeration system may also cause the High Low Temperature Test Chamber to not cool down or cool.

Il messaggio di insediamento di Enrico De Nicola alla carica di Capo provvisorio dello Stato repubblicano italiano fu letto all'Assemblea Costituente il 15 luglio 1946 dal suo presidente Giuseppe Saragat.

L'Italia era da poco divenuta una repubblica, a seguito dei risultati del referendum istituzionale del 2 giugno 1946. De Nicola era stato eletto Capo provvisorio dello Stato dall'Assemblea, nella sua prima riunione del 28 giugno 1946, in base all'art. 2, D.L.Lgt. n. 98/1946.

Eventi che produssero la forma repubblicana dello Stato italiano
All'annuncio dell'armistizio di Cassibile, l'8 settembre 1943, Vittorio Emanuele III, la corte e il governo Badoglio fuggirono da Roma a Brindisi. Nel frattempo l'Italia precipitò nel caos e, in poco tempo, fu occupata dai tedeschi, con l'eccezione di quelle parti già in mano agli alleati. Il 9 settembre, a Roma, si era clandestinamente costituito il Comitato di Liberazione Nazionale (CLN): ne facevano parte il Partito Comunista Italiano, il Partito Socialista Italiano di Unità Proletaria, Democrazia del Lavoro, il Partito d'Azione, la Democrazia Cristiana e il Partito Liberale Italiano.

Nell'aprile del 1944, su iniziativa del segretario del PCI, Palmiro Togliatti, si ebbe la cosiddetta svolta di Salerno finalizzata a trovare un compromesso tra partiti antifascisti e monarchia, che consentisse la formazione di un governo di unità nazionale, accantonando temporaneamente la questione istituzionale. L'iniziativa si concluse con l'accettazione di una mediazione di Enrico De Nicola concernente il trasferimento di tutte le funzioni ad Umberto di Savoia, quale Luogotenente del Regno e l'indizione di una consultazione elettorale per un'Assemblea Costituente e la scelta della forma dello Stato solo al termine della guerra.

Il 16 marzo 1946 il principe Umberto, con D.L.Lgt. n. 98, come previsto dall'accordo del 1944, dispose che la forma istituzionale dello Stato sarebbe stata decisa mediante referendum da indirsi contemporaneamente alle elezioni per l'Assemblea Costituente.

Il referendum per scegliere fra monarchia o repubblica ebbe luogo nella giornata del 2 giugno e la mattina del 3 giugno 1946. I voti validi in favore della soluzione repubblicana furono circa due milioni più di quelli per la monarchia. Nello specifico, i risultati ufficiali del referendum istituzionale furono: repubblica voti 12 718 641 (pari a circa il 54,27% delle schede convalidate), monarchia voti 10 718 502 (pari a circa il 45,73% delle schede convalidate).

I ricorsi della parte soccombente furono respinti dalla Corte di Cassazione il 18 giugno 1946.

Elezione di Enrico De Nicola
L'elezione di De Nicola a capo provvisorio dello Stato fu il frutto di un lungo lavoro diplomatico fra i vertici dei principali partiti politici, i quali avevano convenuto che si dovesse eleggere un presidente capace di riscuotere il maggior gradimento possibile presso la popolazione affinché il trapasso al nuovo sistema fosse il meno traumatico possibile. De Nicola fu proposto dalle sinistre e dai laici, in contrapposizione al candidato della DC e delle destre Vittorio Emanuele Orlando.

Fu eletto dall'Assemblea Costituente capo provvisorio dello Stato al primo scrutinio, il 28 giugno 1946 con 396 voti su 501 votanti e 573 aventi diritto (69,1%), e assunse la carica il 1º luglio, giurando solennemente fedeltà alla Repubblica italiana.

Contenuto del messaggio letto alla Costituente
Il successivo 15 luglio, De Nicola inviò il suo messaggio d'insediamento alla nazione, che fu letto all'Assemblea Costituente dal suo Presidente Giuseppe Saragat.

Il discorso si aprì ripetendo la formula del giuramento e la dichiarazione del nuovo Capo dello Stato di ispirarsi, per lo svolgimento delle sue funzioni, al solo ideale di servire con fedeltà e con lealtà il Paese.

Di seguito, il Capo dello Stato rappresentò l'importanza e le difficoltà del periodo storico che si stava aprendo per l'Italia, facendo un appello all'unità della nazione:

Non mancò di indirizzare un monito ai partiti politici:

Nel nucleo centrale del discorso, il Capo dello Stato toccò le corde del patriottismo nazionale, auspicando una vera pace tra i popoli nel segno della giustizia:

Il Capo provvisorio proseguì dando anche indicazioni ai costituenti sui principi che avrebbero dovuto informare la nuova Costituzione:

Infine, il messaggio si concluse con un augurio di speranza per i destini dell'Italia.

Principali atti della presidenza De Nicola
Il 4 settembre 1947, De Nicola ratificò il Trattato di pace con le potenze alleate.
Il 27 dicembre dello stesso anno, promulgò la Costituzione della Repubblica Italiana.

Con l'entrata in vigore della Carta costituzionale, il 1º gennaio 1948, De Nicola esercitò le attribuzioni e assunse il titolo di presidente della Repubblica Italiana, a norma della prima disposizione transitoria della stessa.

Il 12 maggio 1948, a seguito dell'elezione di Luigi Einaudi alla carica di Presidente della Repubblica, De Nicola cessò formalmente dalle funzioni.

Concept automobiles are prototypes with new and recent designs geared up with some uncommon technical features which might be very different from any conventional autos. The limited range of battery-powered electric vehicles such as the Nissan Leaf will be mitigated when you purchase a petrol or diesel engine hybrid comparable to a Toyota Prius The petrol or diesel hybrids provide gas when the car reaches a certain speed or accelerates quickly. Thus, we introduce to you Autoweek's newest long-term test car, a 2018 Nissan Leaf SL ! Thanks to you, Liz, I discovered quite a bit I did not know earlier than about radio managed tiny automobile racing.
Assuming Elon Musk can iron out manufacturing issues (turns out building 500,000 electrical cars a yr whenever you've never carried out anything remotely on that scale is a bit tough) then Model 3s ought to begin flooding into the UK, and other patiently waiting worldwide markets, in 2018. The Ioniq comes in three versions: as a pure electric-solely automotive, as a hybrid (gas with battery assist) and as a forthcoming plug-in hybrid (electrical only or fuel plus electric).
The cars seem like going a lot sooner than they actually are more often than not, although, they do travel at a reasonably good clip. If I assume a very fuel efficient car instead of a median automotive for the calculation, I'll get complaints from the opposite facet. EVs over £40,000 nonetheless have to pay a £310 premium for the primary 5 years, but they are exempt after that, which should encourage the used market for EVs. That's not nice news for Tesla followers, as a result of our model suggests the corporate might have exaggerated its production capabilities at the end of last 12 months.
The present crop of electrical autos (EVs) are limited to the dear Tesla vary and the BMW i3, however a extra inexpensive set of options is correct across the nook. In the yr 2008, Toyota manufactured 9,237,780 units of automobiles which formally makes it the number one automotive producer of that 12 months. In their case, although, the automotive is a logo of their concern for the setting so it is not a status symbol in a standard sense however remains to be a technique to tell the world around them what sort of driver they are.
Many EVs are electrified variations of existing fuel cars, however the Bolt was designed from the ground up as an electric automotive, with area for the batteries below the ground, the place they do not intervene with passenger or cargo area, and where they help maintain the car's center of gravity low for higher handling. One side that may be a much wanted improvement over other models is the electric motors potential to go about 35 miles earlier than needing to be recharged. In addition, the relatively fixed torque of an electric motor even at very low speeds tends to increase the acceleration of an electrical vehicle relative to that of the same rated motor power inside combustion engine. Although an electrical Mini was trialled nearly a decade ago, it was never offered to the general public.
