Economic boost
Mace to kick-start £250m Greenwich regeneration scheme
Jan Telensky
Developer Hadley Mace has finalised a deal with the Mayor of London Boris Johnson and the Royal Borough of Greenwich to deliver a £250 million mixed-use scheme in east Greenwich that will create new jobs.
It is anticipated that the first phase of homes and community facilities will be completed by late 2014, with the entire development completed approximately three years later, paving the way for employment in the trades.
David Grover, director of Hadley Mace, said: "This leading scheme will demonstrate the benefits of public private consortium and its impact on a community that has been anticipating investment and re-development for more than 10 years."
"The partnership between Hadley and Mace came about as a response to the Home and Communities Agency's quest to find a new way of regenerating neighbourhoods with fresh, innovative thinking and creative investment.
"Acting as delivery partner for the client, and taking control of funding and risk aspects of the scheme, we are offering a full turn-key solution that can be replicated throughout the UK on all public land and any stalled public regeneration scheme."
The Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, said: "This landmark regeneration scheme is a key part of my commitment to provide much-needed housing and jobs for Londoners by bringing forward public land for development.
"The East Greenwich project will see nearly 30% of homes built with families in mind and the construction of some fantastic new amenities that will help to create a thriving and vibrant community.
"I am delighted the scheme is now storming ahead and is another step closer to delivering what I have no doubt will be an exciting new place for Londoners to live, work and visit."

Highland Council to boost infrastructure and development projects
The Highland Council will highlight to the Scottish Government a series of infrastructure and development projects that would boost economic growth and create new trade jobs.
The list of key projects will be passed on to the Scottish Government for their consideration as part of the review of the National Planning Framework (NPF3) which is expected to unlock investment for national developments of strategic importance for Scotland.
The projects that will be put forward by Highland Council are all considered to be of national significance and have the potential to make a significant contribution to the country's sustainable economic growth.
The projects being promoted by the Council to the Government include strategic road improvements to the A9. A82 and A96 trunk roads that connect Highland communities to the rest of Scotland, enhancements to Highland ports and harbours including Nigg and Kishorn, enhancements at all Highland airports, the provision of superfast broadband and the upgrading of the existing electricity transmission network to realise the growth potential in renewable energy generation.
The Council is also taking the opportunity to raise other issues it feels that are of national importance such as the decommissioning of Dounreay, faster train journey times on the mainline, coastal development including the harnessing of wind, wave and tidal energy, waste management and natural heritage.
Vice Chairman of the Planning, Environment and Development Committee, Councillor George Farlow said: "All the projects we are putting forward could potentially bring huge benefits to Highland businesses and residents as well as bringing wider prospective socio-economic growth to the whole of Scotland.
"Our response will highlight the need to ensure we have the best infrastructure in place to make the most of every opportunity and will recognise the work we are doing to promote sustainable development and economic growth.
"Our plans are ambitious and they reflect the confidence we have in the Highlands as great place to live, work and do business in."
Energy efficiency revolution to boost growth and jobs?
A transformation in the way energy is used across the UK economy could help boost growth and jobs, and investing in energy efficiency could save up to 22 power stations-worth of energy by 2020, according to the Government's Energy Efficiency Strategy published today.
The new Strategy is aimed at changing the way energy is used in sectors such as housing, transport and manufacturing over the coming decades. It also includes immediate action to kick start a revolution in UK energy efficiency, including:
£39 million to fund five centres examining business and household energy demand. The five End Use Energy Demand Centres, funded by the Research Councils UK and project partners and led by leading universities, will look at what drives energy demand and how to change future behaviour.
An energy efficiency labelling trial with John Lewis. DECC and John Lewis will introduce a product-labelling trial next year that shows the lifetime running costs of household appliances. A similar trial in Norway showed this information led to consumers purchasing goods that are more energy efficient.
A drive on financing energy efficiency for business and the public sector. As well as a guide to help public sector organisations cut their energy use, the Government will fund a nationwide rollout of RE:FIT, the Mayor of London's award winning programme to improve public sector energy efficiency. Government is also working with ENWORKS in the North West to understand how best to finance and upgrade to more energy efficient equipment in commercial and manufacturing businesses.
Energy and Climate Change Minister Greg Barker said: "We have put energy efficiency at the very heart of the Government's energy policy. Using energy more wisely is absolutely vital in a world of increased pressure on resources and rising prices. Not only can energy efficiency help save money on bills and cut emissions, it can support green jobs, innovation and enterprise.
"This is Britain's first comprehensive Energy Efficiency Strategy and sets out the action we are taking now, as well as what we will do in the future to ensure the UK continues to be a global leader in reducing energy use."
The energy efficiency sector in the UK already accounts for around 136,000 jobs, and had sales of £17.6 billion in 2010/11. Sales in this sector have grown by over 4% per year in the UK since 2007/08, and are projected to grow by around 5% per year between 2010/11 and 2014/15.
The Energy Efficiency Strategy, which draws on a Call for Evidence published by DECC in February this year, sets out the Government's mission to seize the energy efficiency opportunity, boosting growth in the economy, creating jobs, helping households and businesses save money and working towards our climate change goals. The UK could be saving 196TWh in 2020, equivalent to 22 power stations, through cost-effective investment in energy efficiency.
The strategy highlights energy efficiency potential, the benefits of achieving it and reflects on barriers to uptake. It includes new householder behaviour reports which examine the key factors influencing energy use in the UK's homes and businesses. There are significant community benefits around energy efficiency and community based interventions have been shown to save households up to 10% of their energy.
UK commercial and industrial sectors have made good progress in improving their energy efficiency and in many cases lead the world. But there is still huge potential and this strategy signals renewed efforts to help all businesses improve their efficiency and cut their costs.
Three Technology Innovation Needs Assessments (TINAs) have also been published as part of the strategy, looking into energy efficiency innovation required at a household, commercial and industrial scale.
In addition, DECC will continue publishing a series of consultations to guide the implementation of the EU Energy Efficiency Directive, which needs to be fully implemented by Spring 2014. The Directive is a significant step forward by the EU as it looks to meet its target to reduce primary energy consumption by 20 per cent by 2020 against its 2007 business as usual projections.
More Trades Jobs in Wales
The Welsh Government has granted a four-year technology contract for the maintenance of infrastructure schemes that will boost the trades and create new jobs.
Costain, a leading engineering solutions provider, has confirmed a £15 million technology contract as well as two lots of the Highways Agency Asset Support Framework that are expected to start in early 2013.
Work packages would include surfacing works, structures works, technology related works, and general highway improvements across the whole of the Highways Agency motorway and trunk road network.
While there is no commitment by the Agency to spend under the framework, over £750 million of work packages are expected to be awarded through the framework over the next three years.
Costain is one of five contractors on each framework that will operate for three years, with scope for an extension of up to a further 12 months.
Andrew Wyllie, Chief Executive of Costain, commented: "We are delighted with these additional appointments from existing customers, which demonstrate the ongoing success of the implementation of our 'Choosing Costain' strategy: providing a broader service offering to the major customers who are making significant investment in the UK's national infrastructure needs."
Vauxhall Student Scheme Reaches Out for New Jobs
Lambeth Borough Council has granted planning permission to Downing Developments to build a 32-storey student accommodation scheme in Vauxhall, South London, which will boost the building industry and create new jobs.
The development will see the building of 553 student accommodation units, a 25-metre swimming pool and leisure facilities which will be open to the public. The scheme will boost local businesses and benefit the construction sector as well as create new jobs in the trades.
The architect for the scheme is Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios. Downing is planning to start work on the site immediately as the scheme is set for completion by 2014.
Downing development director, Paul Houghton said: "The scheme represents a significant investment in the area, not only through the £4.5m swimming pool and leisure facility, but also through the in excess of £1.5m of contributions that will benefit the local area.
"The proposals will redevelop a brownfield site and provide a major boost to local businesses through the increased spend that the students will deliver."
Downing submitted the planning application in November 2011 following consultation on draft plans with the local community. Following a public exhibition held in September 2011, the size of the swimming pool was increased from 20m to 25m in response to residents' feedback.
Multi-million 'village green' homes plan would create new trade jobs
A multi-million planning application to build 5,750 new homes and create thousands of new trade jobs has been submitted to Ashford Borough Council.
The major development programme will take place at the 415 hectare site at Chilmington Green, building thousands of new homes arranged in three distinctive neighbourhoods with a high street, a secondary school, four primary schools, a park and extensive areas of green space.
The planning application has been prepared for the developer consortium, Hodson Developments, Jarvis Homes, Pentland Homes and Ward Home, to deal with UK's current housing shortage.
Project manager for the consortium, Ian Bull, said that as one of the largest developments in Ashford, the housing scheme will set benchmark for new communities and increase employment opportunities in the area.
Mr Bull said: "Those well-designed places offer communities a lifestyle of wellbeing through a range of employment opportunities, cultural facilities and services, a mix of housing tenures including affordable housing, well-connected and walkable neighbourhoods, and the chance for people to connect with nature through carefully landscaped streets, parks, private gardens and allotments."
Richard Hutchings, project director at engineering consultancy WSP, who prepared all the engineering and environmental designs and documentation to support the application, said that that developing effective transport, utilities and drainage strategies to ensure efficient delivery of the major urban extension have been the biggest challenges of the project
Mr Hutchings said: "Perhaps most significant was the development of a sustainable transport strategy that resolved existing capacity problems on the A28 corridor by reducing reliance on private vehicle travel and promoting alternative options such as walking, cycling and public transport."
Cameron says dive in for £30bn jobs boost on the Severn
Thousands of new trade jobs could be created as the Prime Minister, David Cameron, encouraged officials to reconsider plans to build a £30 billion barrage across the Severn estuary between England and Wales.
After a meeting with Peter Hain, who left his post as shadow Welsh Secretary in 2010 to back the project, David Cameron has asked ministers to take another look at the multi-million scheme which will create 20, 000 construction jobs and diversify the country's energy supply.
It has been estimated that the 10-mile barrage from the Vale of Glamorgan to Somerset would provide 5% of the UK's electricity demand, creating tens of thousands of additional jobs in activity around the barrage.
Hain told BBC Wales that it was a "more productive meeting than might have been expected", revealing that "Number 10 are taking the barrage much more seriously than has been the case over the last few years".
It is understood that much of the funding for the scheme would come from global private investors and taxpayers' money will not be spent. According to Mr Hain, 'several' sovereign wealth funds have already come forward to finance the project, including investors from Kuwait and Qatar.
Mr Hain said: "Government support is an absolute pre-requisite for getting the whole project underway.
"Not a penny of taxpayers' money would be needed for this £30bn investment, which would be transformative for Wales.
"It would create 20,000 jobs in construction and another 30,000 in activity around the barrage."
University Regeneration Scheme to Create New Jobs in the Trades
The University of Bath has announced plans to spend £100 million on improving its campus over the next three years that will enhance student experience and create new jobs in the building trades.
The University's major refurbishment programme announced today will provide 708 en-suite bedrooms in 75 flats across two buildings and deliver increased space for teaching and research improved facilities, creating employment opportunities for people in the building engineering sector.
A new multimillion Art Centre will be built by the autumn of 2014 including general teaching building facilities with a main 350-seat lecture theatre which is due to open in October 2013
Building plans have been submitted to Bath and North East Somerset Council which is expected to reach a decision and give the green light to the improvement scheme by October 2012.
The Vice Chancellor, Prof Dame Glynis Breakwell, said: "Despite continuing economic uncertainty and the changing tuition fee landscape, the University of Bath is facing the future with great confidence.
"Our aim is to further enhance the university's ability to deliver an outstanding student experience; creating additional facilities for research, and an inspiring working environment, as well as providing cultural and economic benefits for the wider Bath region."

The Trades Praise Clegg's Commitment to Renewable Energy
The largest trade association in Britain, the Renewable Energy Association (REA), has welcomed Nick Clegg's announcement to provide a £100 million fund for green investment that will boost the renewable energy industry and create new jobs.
Making the announcement today, Deputy Prime Minister Clegg said that the multimillion fund will enable the UK Green Investments team (UKGI) to see more domestic and foreign investments to the renewable industry.
Chief Executive of the REA, Gaynor Hartnell, praised the Deputy Prime Minister for his leadership and commitment to the renewable energy sector.
He said: "We need clear leadership from the top of Government on renewable energy, so the Deputy Prime Minister's unequivocal commitment to renewable energy is very welcome and timely.
"He is quite right that a global energy revolution is underway and we look forward to working with him to ensure the UK fulfills its extraordinary potential."
However, Mr Hartnell said that the Coalition Government needed a more stable policy framework to make sure the UK's renewable industry continues to expand, paving the way for green jobs in the future.
Mr Hartnell said: "The Coalition Government needs to do much better on providing a clear and stable policy framework to make sure the UK isn't left further behind.
"Recent decisions on support levels for renewable power technologies, which have failed to provide the expected certainty out to 2017, together with the uncertain status of the Electricity Market Reform package, do not provide the stable framework that industry needs."

Green Investment is set to Create New Jobs in the Trades
Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg has announced a £100 million fund for green investment which will create new jobs in the renewable energy industry.
Speaking to an energy conference in London's Lancaster House today, Mr Clegg defended the Government's commitment to support the renewable energy sector, outlining lasting benefits to the UK low-carbon economy.
He announced multi-million contracts by UK Green Investments (UKGI) with fund managers Equitix and Sustainable Development Capital (SDCL) to provide initial capital to encourage foreign and domestic investment in non-domestic energy efficiency.
The Deputy Minister's announcement was hailed with a £12 million expansion by a recycling firm Closed Loop in Dagenham, East London, that will create and safeguard 100 jobs.
The UK is the sixth largest market in low carbon goods and environmental services in the world. It contributes 3.9 per cent of the UK's GDP and employs 173,000 people.
The Deputy Prime Minister said that the Coalition Government is 'unreservedly committed' to help Britain's low carbon sector thrive, providing a clean and green economy.
He said: "There is a global energy revolution underway and the UK is not going to be left behind. We're leading from the front.
"Together we find ourselves at the vanguard of one of the most dynamic, most innovative, most important industries of our time; an industry whose breakthroughs and endeavours will shape our societies for years to come; an industry that will help us build a more stable, more sustainable, more prosperous world."

UPDATED: How strikes will hit travel between France and the UK this Christmas
Anyone planning a trip between France and the UK this Christmas or New Year is facing widespread strike action, delays and cancellations. Here is the latest on which services will run.
Updated: 22 December 2022 16:27 CET
Photo by Tolga Akmen / AFP
Planes, trains, ferries and even roads look set to be affected by UK strike action, while French rail and airline unions have also filed strike notices.
The British actions come in the context of widespread industrial action from nurses to postal workers, train drivers to border guards, all of whom are striking to win pay rises above the rate of inflation that will help them cope with the spiralling cost of living.
Here's a look at how travel will be affected;
UK-based security staff will walk out on December 22nd and 23rd. The UK's RMT union is also taking strike action between December 24th and 27th.
The Eurostar will be running fewer services than usual on December 23rd and 24th and has cancelled several services and changed the times of others – anyone with a pre-booked train is advised to check the website or app.
Eurostar will be running no services at all on December 26th due to strike action that has closed lines.
At present services from December 27th to January 1st are listed as running normally, but things can change closer to the time. Eurostar says it is "currently assessing the impact" of more planned strikes between January 3rd and 7th.
Passengers should be notified about cancellations or changes, but some Eurostar passengers have reported not getting updates about earlier cancellations, so it would be a good idea to keep an eye on the Eurostar website or app for any timetable changes.
Border guards belonging to the Public and Commercial Services union have called strike action from December 23rd until December 31st, with the exception of December 27th, at Heathrow (Terminals 2,3,4 and 5), Gatwick, Birmingham, Manchester, Glasgow and Cardiff airports.
The UK government has warned arrivals to "expect delays and disruption" at airports – 75 percent of passport control staff are PCS union members. The main effect will be long waits at passport control (some are predicting up to 10 hours) but there may also be flight cancellations as passengers may have to wait before disembarking their plane – something that will affect other incoming flights.
Anyone with a pre-booked ticket will be contacted by their airline if their flight is cancelled, but travellers should allow plenty of time to clear passport control.
In France cabin crew working for Easyjet have withdrawn their strike notice after successful pay negotiations, and Air France says it will be running normal services over the Christmas and New Year period.
The UK border guards' strike will also affect the ferry port of Newhaven, so there could also be delays for passengers on the Dieppe-Newhaven route, but cancellations are a lot less likely due to significantly lower volume of traffic through Newhaven.
The PCS strike does not include staff at Dover, Folkestone, Plymouth or Portsmouth.
Channel Tunnel
The border guards strike does not include staff at Folkestone, and train drivers on the Channel Tunnel do not belong to the RMT, so Channel Tunnel services should be running as normal.
Eurotunnel bosses say that unspecified "technical difficulties" at Folkestone which caused six-hour waits on December 19th have now been resolved.
Services are expected to be extremely busy as travellers change their plans to avoid flying or taking the train. There are also possible road disruptions in the UK (more below).
So that's travel services between France and the UK, but there are also issues to be aware of on both sides of the Channel once you leave the port/airport/station.
In the UK
Rail strikes – The biggest impact is likely to be on the railways, National Rail Enquiries says: "Due to various industrial action, there will be a reduced train services across the rail network from Tuesday, December 13th 2022 until Sunday, January 8th 2023. Significant disruption is expected across the rail network. Trains will be busier and likely to start later and finish earlier, and there will be no services at all in some places."
The RMT union is taking strike action on December 13th, 14th, 16th, 17th, 24th, 25th, 26th and 27th.
Outside of strike days, union members are also refusing to do any overtime outside of their contracted work hours – and it is estimated that this will see around 20 percent of services cancelled. It seems that the disruption is concentrated on local services, rather than intercity routes.
Roads – travel by road could also be disrupted over the holidays because of a strike by National Highways control room staff. These workers have a largely unseen but important role – including monitoring CCTV, programming motorway matrix boards and co-ordinating with emergency services. It essentially means that work to mitigate the effects of crashes, breakdowns or bottlenecks will happen more slowly, leading to unusually long traffic jams on motorways and A roads.
These strikes are on a regional basis – December 16th and 17th in the north-west, north-east, Yorkshire and Humber, December 22nd, 23rd, 24th and 25th for London and the south-east, December 30th and 31st for the West Midlands and south west and January 6th and 7th for the east Midlands and eastern England.
All National Highways workplaces will take industrial action on January 3rd and 4th.
French rail workers are also taking strike action from Friday, December 23rd to Monday, 26th and SNCF says that only two in five of the normal services will be running on those days – with cancellations concentrated on the high-speed TGV lines. It does not affect local TER trains or city or suburban public transport.
The busy Christmas period means that most trains are full, so that people whose trains have been cancelled are struggling to book an alternative – SNCF is offering refunds of double the ticket price to anyone who cannot travel.
However a second strike – planned for December 30th to January 2nd – has been called off after a deal was reached.
You can keep up to date with all the latest strike news in our strike section HERE, and we will also update this article as things become clearer.

France extends Covid tests for travellers from China
France on Saturday said it had extended until February 15th Covid tests for travellers arriving from China due to the "evolving situation".
The tests had initially been decreed until January 31.
Since the start of this year, travellers aged over 11 and coming from China to France have had to present a negative test taken 48 hours before the flight to board the plane.
Random testing will be carried out and anyone testing positive will have to self-isolate, the French authorities said, adding that everyone above six years old would have to wear face masks on the plane.
Several countries had slapped fresh travel regulations on travellers from China after Beijing decided to relax strict virus restrictions.
China has said that the number of daily Covid-19 deaths has fallen by nearly 80 percent since the start of the month.
A wave of virus cases has washed over the world's most populous nation since Beijing abruptly ended its zero-Covid policy last month.
Beijing's figures are believed to only represent a fraction of the true toll, given China's narrow definition of a Covid death and official estimates that swathes of the population have been infected.

The JCSG high-throughput (HTP) platform, assembled over the past 15 years, has delivered a large numbers of protein structures to the community by both X-ray crystallography and NMR on a wide range of targets from bacteria to human, including challenging targets, such as eukaryotic proteins, protein-protein and other macromolecular complexes. Our primary approach to HTP structural biology involves processing sets of targets through an extensive combination of bioinformatics and biophysical analyses to efficiently characterize each target in order to optimize its path through our pipeline.
The JCSG is a multi-institutional consortium with major activities at The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI); the Genomics Institute of the Novartis Research Foundation (GNF); the University of California, San Diego (UCSD); the Sanford-Burnham Medical Research Institute (SBMRI); and the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource (SSRL), SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory.
To explore the expanding protein universe to find new challenges and opportunities to significantly contribute to new biology, chemistry and medicine through development of HT approaches to structural genomics.
Our primary mission as a PSI:Biology Center for High-Throughput Structure Determination is to provide a robust, flexible HTP structure determination pipeline that meets the challenges and embraces the opportunities that arise from PSI:Biology Partnerships projects and the community through (PSI Community Nominated Target) CNTs. The JCSG is leveraging its HTP platform to promote the biological and biomedical impact of all of our structures through extensive functional and bioinformatics analyses both internally and in collaboration with our Partnerships, CNTs and other collaborations within the PSI:Biology network, as well as the general scientific community. As part of the PSI:Biology Network, we strive to promote widespread use of PSI resources, materials, methodologies and data to the general scientific community. The JCSG also continues to develop new technologies and methodologies, both experimental and computational, to address a wide spectrum of targets, while keeping the cost per structure to a minimum and quality to the highest standard.
The JCSG centralizes each core activity into single dedicated sites, each handling distinct, but interconnected objectives. This unique approach allows each specialized group to focus on its own area of expertise and provides well-defined interfaces among the groups. In addition, this approach addresses the requirements for the scalability needed to process large numbers of targets at a greatly reduced cost per target.
The JCSG is committed to a model that employs distributed local management and centralized coordination to establish a pipeline with fully functional large-scale production sites that are tightly integrated to ensure standardization of data, uniformity of communication interfaces, and synchronization of production schedules. The overall structure of the JCSG is designed to ensure the most efficient operation and data management that optimizes the use of resources and minimizes the cost per structure.

"It takes a very special guy to come in and assimilate late to this system."
As the Patriots begin to ramp up preparations for the 2018 regular season, it will be done without wide receiver Eric Decker, who retired on Sunday.
The 31-year-old, who struggled to acclimate after signing in New England on Aug. 3, chose to call time on his eight-year NFL career.
Decker's exit only further underscores an existing question mark for the Patriots: Who will step up in the receiving corps? Fellow veterans Jordan Matthews and Kenny Britt (as well as Super Bowl LI winner Malcolm Mitchell) have also been cut.
The possibility of another acquisition, whether via trade or free agency, has been speculated over with frequency. Dez Bryant, currently a free agent, has been one of the catchier names. Yet veteran Patriots observers are skeptical.
"It takes a very special guy to come in and assimilate late to this system," said former Patriots tight end (and WEEI radio host) Christian Fauria on WBZ-TV.
"It's like you'd rather just work with the guys you have," Fauria added.
A favorite wide receiver target of Tom Brady's since 2013, Edelman has two limiting factors heading into 2018.
First is his return from a torn ACL, which kept him out of the entirety of last season. The second is his four-game suspension for violating NFL policy on performance enhancing substances. Both have been mitigating factors in Edelman's average draft position.
Still, there is a belief that Edelman could come back as strong as ever and be a value pick.
"The fact that Danny Amendola, Dion Lewis, [and] Brandon Cooks left, that is over 200 targets leaving that offense," noted NFL Network's Kay Adams.
And Scott Spratt of Pro Football Focus summed it up after extensive analysis.
Hogan is the only returning Patriots receiver playing in Week 1 and who also has legitimate experience with Brady.
The 30-year-old is averaging as the 25th receiver picked in drafts, yet his ceiling (especially in Edelman's absence) is higher.
This one might be even more baffling to me. People have clearly forgotten what Hogan did last season before getting hurt, as he's currently going as WR29, in the eighth round. Hogan was a top-10 WR at the point when he got injured, he was tied for fourth in the NFL in red zone targets and that included two more targets than teammate Rob Gronkowski. Among the 73 WRs with at least 70 catches since the beginning of 2016, Hogan ranks fourth in terms of fantasy points per catch (3.3). So, he just needs volume. Well, now that he is fully healthy and with Brandin Cooks in L.A. and Julian Edelman suspended for four games (and coming off injury), whom do you think Tom Brady is going to throw to? Exactly.
Dorsett presents a possible – though obviously uncertain – fantasy option partly due to the fact that he's not being drafted in most leagues. He could be an early waiver wire pickup.
And Brady has had good things to say about Dorsett, which carries weight.
Since the Patriots first acquired Patterson earlier in 2018, there's been speculation that he could have some breakout fantasy potential given New England's creativity in personnel usage.
More realistically, there's still a chance that Patterson could make a fantasy impact in a standard receiver role in 2018. Like Dorsett, he's largely going undrafted (he's on just 3 percent of ESPN rosters).
While Patterson may not see consistent volume out of the gate, the 6-foot-2, 228-pounder has the size, athleticism and run-after-catch ability to become a playmaker for QB Tom Brady. As a result, he has some sleeper potential and should be kept on the radar as a potential September pickup.

Dokkum is a Dutch fortified city in the municipality of Noardeast-Fryslân in the province of Friesland. It has 12,669 inhabitants (February 8, 2020). The fortifications of Dokkum are well preserved and are known as the bolwerken (bulwarks). It is the fifth most popular shopping city in Friesland. It also had the smallest hospital in the Netherlands.

History
The best-known event in Dokkum's history is the martyrdom of the Anglo-Saxon missionary Saint Boniface in 754. Oliver of Cologne preached the Fifth Crusade in Dokkum in 1214 and Dokkum sent a contingent; the crescent in the coat of arms of Dokkum refers to this event. Dokkum acquired city rights in 1298. In 1572 Dokkum was sacked by the Spaniards after it had joined the Dutch Revolt. In 1597, the Admiralty of Friesland was established in Dokkum. However, it was moved to Harlingen in 1645. In 1971 the city was included in the list of Dutch 'Urban and village conservation areas'.

In 1923, when Catholics in the Netherlands were not allowed to engage in public expressions of faith such as processions, a processional park was built south-east of the city center, the Boniface park. Central in the park is the so-called Brouwersbron, the brewers' well, which Titus Brandsma and others (incorrectly) identified as the well that sprang up after the saint's martyrdom. A chapel dedicated to Boniface was built in 1934. Brandsma, a Carmelite priest who was murdered by the Nazis in Dachau in 1942, also designed the park's Stations of the Cross, which were finished in 1949.

Before 2019, the city was part of the Dongeradeel municipality.

Architecture

City hall
The city hall in Dokkum was built in 1610.

Churches
 Grote of Sint-Martinuskerk which is from the 16th century.
 Sint-Bonifatiuskerk from 1871.
 Bonifatiuskapel is from 1934

Transport
Dokkum had a station (Dokkum-Aalsum) on the North Friesland Railway, which opened in 1901. It became the terminus for passenger services in May 1935 and closed to passengers in July 1936. The station reopened to passengers in May 1940 and closed to passengers in July 1942. Freight services ceased in 1975. There is still a bus station in Dokkum.

Urban development
The latest neighbourhood is called the 'Trije Terpen'. At the Trije Terpen is also the newest shopping area of Dokkum called, Zuiderschans. Other construction works in other parts of the city are also taking place, such as the Lyceumpark, the Fonteinslanden, the Veiling and the Hogedijken.

In the future the industrial park, Betterwird, will expand even more to the west. It's an industrial park with more than 70 companies. In 2013, the construction of the Central Axis began. This is a road with a fast connection and few obstacles between Dokkum and Drachten. The road was delivered in 2016.

Population
The population of Dokkum increased by 5,378 people between 1960 and 2013. In recent years, the population has fluctuated around 12,500 inhabitants.

Sport
In the 200 km ice skating marathon known as the Elfstedentocht, Dokkum is known as the keerpunt (turning-point in Dutch), because it is where the speedskaters turn and head back to Leeuwarden.
There are two different soccer clubs in Dokkum, VV Dokkum and Be Quick Dokkum.

Windmills
In 1652, Dokkum had five windmills, these were all post mills.
Dokkum has two windmills, cap mills, that are preserved and both of them are open to the public by appointment. They are named Zeldenrust and De Hoop.
A third mill, De Marmeerin stood by the Woudvaart outside the town. Since 2014 the mill was moved to be restored to working order. After restoration it is to be rebuilt at De sûkerei open-air museum in Damwâld.

Q: Where to store image,in database or server folder I am building an application,in which user will upload lots of pics.What should be the best way to store all pic on web.
I mean to say I should store in database or server folders.Which will be more scalable and fast.
If it is data base, Which database.
Please suggest me.
Thanks

A: I will recommend to store the images in the folder structure, because it is easier to download and do some changes (image quality / optimize) and then put back to server.
Without any interaction with database (for security reason about database structure or data) it is easy to do operations on image as per your / client needs.
More flexibility if you run out of storage space (move them to another disk), even use them in other apps

Q: A lower bound on sorting algorithms I think I have a proof that $n\ln n$ is optimal in the sense that is it a lower bound for sorting algorithms.
See here for a list.
It must be greater than $n$ as this is too linear, and the $\ln$ factor comes from the harmonic series, which represents the reductions by dividing the sort list.
Has this already been proved (or disproved)?

A: It's well known that comparison sorts require $n \log n$ operations in the worst case to sort $n$ things. You can check Wikipedia for a proof or these lecture notes by Avirm Blum.
However, if you don't use a comparison-based sort (e.g. bucket or radix sort), you can break the $n \log n$ barrier.

A: With $n$ elements there are $n!$ possible orderings. Each comparison you make between two elements reduces the space of possible elements by a half. In order to uniquely determine which ordering we are in, we have to perform enough comparisons to cover all possible orderings.
All orderings can be represented in $\log_2 n!$ bits, which is to say we need $O(\log_2 n!)$ comparisons. Using Stirling's Approximation, $\log_2(n!) \approx \frac1{\ln 2}(n \ln n - n + O(\ln n))$. Asymptotically, $O(\log_2 n!) = O(n \log n)$.

A: Yes, this is known as the information-theoretic upper bound for sorting and has been known since the 1960s. However, it applies only to comparison sorts, where individual elements are compared pairwise.  (Radix sort is a commonly-cited counterexample in this context.)  Wikipedia has a discussion in their article on comparison sorts.
My discussion in Have Information Theoretic results been used in other branches of mathematics? has some more details and references to the literature.

Conventional electronics are based on the flow of electrons, negative charge carriers. Magnetic systems rely on principles governing electron spin, a quantum physical phenomenon related to angular momentum.
The angular momentum associated with spin produces a magnetic field. In most materials, magnetic fields of individual atoms cancel one another. In magnetic materials of various types, generally metals, atomic dipole moments become aligned (polarised) producing macroscopic magnetic fields.
Magnetic storage devices are based on the use of different patterns of magnetisation corresponding to information in stored data. With the advent of nanotechnology and the interest in building functional systems on the scale of atoms and molecules, a new field known as spintronics has emerged.
Spintronics, short for spin electronics and also known as magnetoelectronics, exploits electron spin in addition to charge. It uses them together to lay down and read back bits of data on semiconductor (solid-state) material and could provide the foundation for entirely new computational paradigms.
One of the most direct methods of introducing spin-polarised electrons into a semiconductor is by adding metal 'dopants' (impurities that modify the semiconductor's properties) to produce co-called dilute magnetic semiconductors (DMS).
European scientists seeking to develop a suitable electro-deposition process to synthesise DMS nanowire structures and semiconductor junctions initiated the 'Doped magnetic ZnO p-n junction heterostructures for nano-spintronic devices' (MAJIC-SPIN) project.
The consortium successfully produced doped nanowires via a direct electro-deposition technique. They then studied their compositions, structures and magnetic properties via a variety of advanced experimental techniques including X-ray absorption-based methods and a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID).
In the case of cobalt (Co)-doped nanowires, scientists demonstrated full incorporation of Co into the lattice and the presence of a magnetically ordered phase.

Subscribe to this channel: http://www.youtube.com/OpalesqueTV George Schultze is the founder of Schultze Asset Management and author of "The Art of Vulture Investing." George classifies himself as a "vulture investor," investing in distressed securities and companies that are troubled. His particular strategy revolves around 3 areas of investment: shorting companies on their way into distress, focusing on loans or bonds at a discount when they are in trouble, and after they have reorganized, investing in their post-reorganization equities. George gives insights from his career in vulture investing, such as sitting on the creditors' committee of Tropicana Entertainment (Tropicana Casino) and helping to bring that company out of bankruptcy. He is known publicly as one of the "Chrysler Holdouts" for owning Chrysler's senior secured debt before the Obama administration's out-of-court debt restructuring plan, and for fighting that restructuring. George talks about avoiding the dangers of government intervention in bankruptcy investing, and describes his process of identifying distressed industries and companies, citing leverage as the most critical indicator in pushing them toward bankruptcy. Despite the popular connotations associated with vulture investing, George says the process is healthy because distressed securities investors push capital from dying to healthy businesses, preventing "zombie" companies from lingering in the system. Learn about the following: What is "Vulture Investing"? Waiting for the opportunity to develop An arbitrage between forced sellers and normal long-term buyers Structural limitations on what banks can own can leave attractive assets Beware political environment and government intervention in bankruptcy investing Leverage is the key in identifying troubled industries and companies Factors when evaluating industry bankruptcy trends How to classify a vulture strategy for investors Why vulture investing is healthy and allows capital to be redeployed from dying to healthy businesses Examples and explanations of successful vulture investments George J.

The Times touched on the inconvenient truth of the neo-Nazis again on April 12 in an article about the mysterious death of neo-Nazi leader Oleksandr Muzychko, who was killed during a shootout with police on March 24. The article quoted a local Right Sektor leader, Roman Koval, explaining the crucial role of his organization in carrying out the anti-Yanukovych coup. "Ukraine's February revolution, said Mr. Koval, would never have happened without Right Sector and other militant groups," the Times wrote. Yet, that reality -- though actually reported in the New York Times -- has now become "Russian propaganda," according to the New York Times. This upside-down American narrative also ignores the well-documented interference of prominent U.S. officials in stirring up the protesters in Kiev, which is located in the western part of Ukraine and is thus more anti-Russian than eastern Ukraine where many ethnic Russians live and where Yanukovych had his political base. Assistant Secretary of State for European Affairs Victoria Nuland was a cheerleader for the uprising, reminding Ukrainian business leaders that the United States had invested $5 billion in their "European aspirations," discussing who should replace Yanukovych (her choice, Arseniy Yatsenyuk became the new prime minister), and literally passing out cookies to the protesters in the Maidan. (Nuland is married to neoconservative superstar Robert Kagan, a founder of the Project for the New American Century.) During the protests, neocon Sen. John McCain, R-Arizona, took the stage with leaders of Svoboda -- surrounded by banners honoring Stepan Bandera -- and urged on the protesters. Even before the demonstrations began, prominent neocon Carl Gershman, president of the U.S.-funded National Endowment for Democracy, had dubbed Ukraine "the biggest prize." [For more details, see Consortiumnews.com's "What's the Matter with John Kerry?"] Indeed, in my four-plus decades in journalism, I have never seen a more thoroughly biased and misleading performance by the major U.S. news media. Even during the days of Ronald Reagan -- when much of the government's modern propaganda structure was created -- there was more independence in major news outlets. There were media stampedes off the reality cliff during George H.W. Bush's Persian Gulf War and George W. Bush's Iraq War, both of which were marked by demonstrably false claims that were readily swallowed by the big U.S. news outlets. But there is something utterly Orwellian in the current coverage of the Ukraine crisis, including accusing others of "propaganda" when their accounts -- though surely not perfect -- are much more honest and more accurate than what the U.S. press corps has been producing. There's also the added risk that this latest failure by the U.S. press corps is occurring on the border of Russia, a nuclear-armed state that -- along with the United States -- could exterminate all life on the planet. The biased U.S. news coverage is now feeding into political demands to send U.S. military aid to Ukraine's coup regime. The casualness of this propaganda -- as it spreads across the U.S. media spectrum from Fox News to MSNBC, from the Washington Post to the New York Times -- is not just wretched journalism but it is reckless malfeasance jeopardizing the lives of many Ukrainians and the future of the planet.

Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials (Small Business Server) is supported but is not tested.
Sage is committed to supporting future Microsoft operating systems as they are released to market for all Sage 300 applications. However, this does not include release candidates, beta, or pre-beta operating systems. As new operating systems are scheduled for final general release, Sage will evaluate their compatibility and update this document based on those evaluations.
Sage 300 2017 does not support DCOM for Web Deployment.
The Analysis module for Sage 300 Intelligence Reporting is not compatible with Microsoft Excel 2003.
Sage 300 Web Deployment does not require Sage 300 Web Reporting by SAP Crystal Reports® (Crystal Report Application Server).
Consult with an expert. Because implementing a virtual server environment is very complex, we recommend that you consult with a vendor-certified virtual server consultant.
Important! Ask your consultant to commit to matching or mirroring the performance requirements listed in the "Hardware requirements" chapter of this document. A certified virtual server consultant should be able to provide you with a performance baseline report that includes expected maximum processing throughput per active instance, and expected performance trends as additional virtual instances come online. This document should also include the expected margin of error during peak business operating hours.
Ensure sufficient resources and RAM. Each virtual environment should have sufficient resources for the operating system and installed applications. Sage 300 2017 compatibility Sage 300 2017 compatibility Sage 300 2017 compatibility guide Page 7 of 16 There is never enough memory to share among virtual devices running on a virtual server. We recommend that server RAM be configured to the maximum that the server hardware can support. Most server hardware that is certified by the virtual server vendor can support at least 32 GB of RAM.
Deploy at least two virtual servers. If not properly implemented, a virtual environment can be a single point of failure. A single point of failure should be avoided at all costs. The virtual server community always recommends deploying at least two virtual servers, along with a failover strategy.
Avoid overcommitting application pools. When running in a VMware environment, avoid overcommitting VM application pools. Allocating more resources than the hardware can support can cause performance problems.
Check hardware compatibility. Virtual server vendors always support a list of compatible server hardware devices. Therefore, ensure that the virtual server your firm is considering is on the hardware compatibility list.
Understand memory allocation. Each virtual server vendor implements vastly different memory allocation strategies, so you need to be familiar with their specific strategy. For example, VMware dynamically allocates memory to an active virtual image, allowing the administrator to set a maximum memory limit, but allocating that maximum memory only as needed.
Plan for network bandwidth. Network bandwidth may become a bottleneck in virtual network environments. Be prepared to add more than four network interface cards to your virtual server. Ask your virtual server platform expert to investigate the ability of these network interface devices to "team up." When network bandwidth becomes a bottleneck, network interface teaming may be the easiest solution, without resorting to the more complicated strategy of breaking up your network into smaller segments.
Citrix servers should be dedicated for applications, and database engines should be separate from the Citrix server. You need to optimize Citrix sessions for performance, and to ensure that printers are compatible with Citrix.
Note: Sage support teams will address only application-related issues that can be replicated in a standard client/server environment, and will not address performance issues in a Citrix environment.
This section lists supported database platforms and operating systems for Sage 300 2017. Sage reserves the right not to provide support for operating systems and database engines not listed in the Compatibility Guide and/or no longer supported by their vendors.
Microsoft SQL Server Enterprise, Standard, and Express Editions are supported.
For Microsoft SQL databases, we recommend using a binary collation method, such as Latin1_general_bin.
Sage 300 2016 and Sage 300 2017 support only Microsoft SQL Server for all databases.
Windows Server 2012 R2 and 2016 are supported as the application server for Sage 300 2017.
Sage supports only the 64-bit version of any application server operating system.
Printing in Web Deployment does not require Sage 300 Web Reporting by SAP Crystal Reports®.
Terminal Server and Citrix XenApp are supported only for Sage 300 Classic (Visual Basic) programs, not for web screens.
age 300 2017 is not tested with Windows Server 2008 R2 and Sage cannot provide assurance of product compatibility. Microsoft ended Mainstream support of Windows Server 2008 R2 on January 13, 2015. For details, see https://support.microsoft.com/enus/lifecycle. If you choose to continue using Windows Server 2008 R2, Sage Support will address only application-related issues that can be replicated in a supported environment listed in this Compatibility Guide.
The 64-bit versions of Windows 7 (SP1), Windows 8.1, and Windows 10 are supported as the workstation operating system for Sage 300 2017.
Microsoft Excel 2010, 2013, or 2016 (32-bit) is required on each workstation running the GL Financial Reporter.
Microsoft Outlook 2010, 2013, or 2016 (32-bit) is required on each workstation to use the email function.
Microsoft Application Virtualization (App-V), which is another method to deploy Microsoft Office, is not supported.
Sage 300 workstations require Internet Explorer 9.x or 10.x to run Web Deployment. If you use Internet Explorer 11, you must use Emulation Mode to select a supported Internet Explorer version.
To support web screens, the Sage 300c server requires Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2, 2016 with IIS installed, including static content and ASP.Net. Web screens require a Portal database, which can be the same database you use for the Sage 300 Portal. The Portal database must use a supported version of Microsoft SQL Server.
To view web screens, use Internet Explorer 11 or the latest versions of Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Apple Safari, or Mozilla Firefox.
The Portal supports Internet Explorer 11 and the latest editions of Chrome, Safari and Firefox. Microsoft Edge is not supported.
Internet Information Services (IIS) is required for the Sage 300 Portal, web screens, and web deployment. Supported versions of IIS are applicable to supported versions of Windows operating systems.
Opening Sage 300 Classic (Visual Basic) screens from the Portal is supported only on 32- bit versions of Internet Explorer.
Sage CRM 7.3B and integration with Sage 300 2017 are supported on Internet Explorer for both single- and two-server configurations, and on the latest versions of Google Chrome, Apple Safari, and Mozilla Firefox for single-server configurations only.
Opening Sage 300 screens in a separate window using Sage 300 web deployment is supported only using Internet Explorer.
* Financials Modules include System Manager, General Ledger, Accounts Receivable, and Accounts Payable. Operations Modules include Inventory Control, Order Entry, and Purchase Orders.
* For SQL Express, check CPU and RAM limitations.
Additional applications require more resources. Recommendations are based on a standalone server with little to no additional network traffic. Running additional applications on the same server will require additional resources.
Add RAID to protect data. Adding RAID to your storage configurations is one of the most cost-effective ways to maintain both data protection and access. For the database and file servers, we recommend using RAID 10 (minimum RAID 5). For the application and web servers, we recommend using RAID 1.
Plan for different user types. It is important to keep in mind what type of user will be working with the system. For example, 100 users working in Operations modules will use the system more intensively than 100 users working in Financial modules. The guidelines in this document are intended for users of Operations modules on a non-customized system, with little to no additional processing or network traffic.
Plan for backup and recovery. Each site must have adequate backup and recovery capabilities. We strongly recommend that you set up a "hot standby" system with a backup database. This standby system should have a similar configuration to the primary production system. The standby system can also be used for development and testing.
Plan for disk space requirements. The amount of required disk space varies widely, depending on the number of customer records, archiving plans, and backup policies. Required disk space can also vary depending on the amount of information held for each customer. Therefore, it is important to estimate disk space requirements prior to installation, and to purchase sufficient disk storage to allow for significant growth in the volume of data.
Protect against power outages and surges. We recommend that you use an uninterruptible power supply.
Understand the effect of product customizations. Note that product customizations can significantly affect the performance of Sage 300, and should be evaluated carefully when specifying hardware.


There are many bird fanciers who consider this the handsomest plumaged of all birds and the color is so strangely mottled that it is frequently called the "painted bunting." The color of the bird is difficult to describe, but we may say that he has a violet head and neck with a red circle around the eyes; the back yellowish green and the throat and breast are bright red. He is about the same size as the German canary and requires the same cage, food and treatment except that he is especially fond of mealworms, grasshoppers and insects.
The bird seed best suited for him is canary and millet in equal proportions. He has a low, sweet song though not equal to German canaries, still it is greatly admired, being a melodious warble. They are easily domesticated and soon become contented to cage life. They can be bred with the canary but do not make a really desirable cross. They have very few diseases and require the same cures as are recommended for the canary.


Massage therapy is far more than a relaxing day at the spa. The benefits of regular massage are an essential part of maintaining a healthy body.
Massage therapy has been known to increase circulation, boost the immune system, promote nervous system function, reduce blood pressure, increase flexibility, and aide in pain relief. It can also help prevent future injury and speed up recovery time, allowing you to get back out there faster and stronger.
Massage Therapy partners beautifully with Physical Therapy Treatment, aiding in healing of injuries and through preventative maintenance to ensure proper care of the body and its systems. An example of this is when muscle guarding occurs. Muscle guarding is the body's natural response to an injury where the muscles form a tight, protective wall in an attempt to further protect an injured site. When this process occurs, the healing process can be delayed by the body's own protective reactions, causing the great amounts of pain and dysfunction. Massage therapy can relax and release those muscles allowing the Physical Therapist to perform their job more efficiently; allowing them to work on the actual cause of the original injury rather than spending a large portion of time managing post-injury symptoms and trying to work around a wall of tight and stiff muscles.
Swedish Massage: Most widely practiced. Soothing, known for relaxation. Light to medium long flowing strokes, known to improve circulation and promote stress relief.
Deep Tissue: Therapeutic massage focusing on areas of chronic pain. Strong pressure and trigger point therapy are used to alleviate discomfort and improve range of motion.
Pre-Natal: Suited for the relaxation needs of an expectant mother. Performed with client on their back or side with plenty of bolsters and pillows to ensure comfort. Generally relieves aches in low back, shoulders, and feet.
Sports massage: Designed to enhance athletic performance both Pre and Post Event.
Pre-event: Improves circulation without muscle fatigue. Generally light pressure and short strokes. Helps oxygenate blood and improve performance.
Post-event: reduces recovery time, decreases muscle soreness, and allows athlete to return to training faster.


The art of mixing electronic/industrial elements with rock/metal music isn't exactly a new phenomenon. It's been aptly demonstrated by Filter on their "Title Of Record" and "The Amalgamut" albums and more recently by KoЯn on "Path To Totality." However, none get it so cleverly done as the guys from Enter Shikari. To these jaded ears their latest album, "A Flash Flood Of Colours," sounds like a warped combination of Pendulum (dubstep/drum n' bass), Oceansize (heavy elements mixed with pop sensibilities), Hatebreed (breakdowns) and, oddly enough, The Lonely Island. That is because of the use a whole range of diverse vocal styles, giving the lyrics full of social commentary an unintentional comical undercurrent.
Coming from a metal background I prefer the heavier songs, like 'Sssnakepit,' the cleverly titled 'Arguing With Thermometers' and 'Gandi Mate, Gandi.' They really give the album its proverbial balls or spine if you like. Unfortunately, there are some cringe-worthy moments as well, especially the emo drivel on 'Stalemate' and 'Pack Of Thieves.' Luckily, the sophistication of 'Hello Tyrannosaurus, Meet Tyrannicide' and 'Destabilise' make up for that. The particular British accent of singer Roughton Reynolds give "A Flash Flood Of Colour" a whole new dimension of typical upper class poshness/twatness.
The production of "A Flash Of Colour" is as slick as one could expect from a mainstream rock/core act as Enter Shikari. It's a tad too polished for my liking, but it fits the album as the proverbial glove.
"A Flash Flood Of Colour" by Enter Shikari is a typical love or hate record. Purists will continue to find every reason to slag this album, while the band's rabid fanbase will defend it with equal vim and vigour. As for me, I really enjoy the sense of freedom and artistry this record oozes, despite the cringe-worthy emocore moments, which put me off my appetite from time to time. Guilty pleasure or not, "A Flash Flood Of Colour" will finds its way to my cd player for a considerable time to come!

Don't vote for Democrats
In case anyone has not noticed, in the last 18 months your voted-in officials like Sen. Tom Carper, Sen. Chris Coons, Gov. John Carney and Rep. Lisa Blunt Rochester have worked super hard on one thing: getting Donald J. Trump out of office, legally or illegally.
These are the same people who voted for Obamacare and still support it, even though the majority in Delaware do not support it and many small companies have gone under because of it.
These Democrats voted for the Iran nuclear deal. The Iranians sent this American money to ISIS in Afghanistan, who used it to kill American soldiers there.
So just remember, come Nov. 6 — Tom Carper and clan voted for the Iran nuclear deal that has killed american soldiers in Afghanistan. Fact.
So vote Democrat again if you support dead American soldiers in Afghanistan.

Housing stats questionable
We wish to comment on the lead story from July 30, "Grant revives Dover tiny house village plan."
There are two concerns: First, Ms. Harris frequently cites that shelter beds cost $13,000 in Delaware, with transitional housing costing $14,000. This may be true elsewhere in the state; however, costs at the Dover Interfaith Mission for Housing are considerably different.
A shelter bed in our organization's shelter costs only $2,860 per year. If case management services are added, this cost rises to $4,160. Her figures do not indicate whether any services are included.
Second, our organization's transitional housing has almost no public costs, as residents pay rent; however, they must adhere to rules which result in occasional evictions. Housing management for our non-shelter housing costs $1,250 per bed annually — far less than the $14,000 cited in the article as "average."
All of our transitional housing residents have stable earnings, while over 80 percent of shelter residents secure employment each year. We can only imagine what we might accomplish with the income levels Ms. Harris indicates are typical.
The City of Dover has engaged a variety of agency and business representatives in a Task Force on Homelessness, which I chair. While tiny houses are among the solutions under consideration, there appears to be scant support for them within the city.
That said, homelessness exists throughout the state and tiny houses may be better-suited in a more rural campground setting.
Thank you for this opportunity to comment and to inform the public.
—Jeanine Kleimo is chair of the Dover Interfaith Mission for Housing and the City of Dover's Task Force on Homelessness.
Don't make excuses for Trump
While reading Michael O'Hanlon's guest column, I heard a reedy voice calling, "Attention All! Comes now Squire Danaher! Respect is due!" and similar lines from "The Quiet Man," starring John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara. The speaker is Feeney, toady for her older brother Will, a brutal moneyed and landed bully who aspires to be considered gentry. Feeney always accompanied him to clean up his messes, explain away his meanness and excuse dirty fighting by blaming others for having upset him.
By ignoring the appeal of the Trump campaign's "troubling elements" — racism, xenophobia, religious bigotry, cruelty — to many people and finding bellicosity towards nations "regrettable" rather than dangerous, Mr. O'Hanlon presents an alternative world of honest commitment of protection for NATO allies, "careful" listening to advisers, fulfilling the needs of middle-class and working-class voters. In short, a real-time reality show just as truthful as Trump's lies about Obama's birthplace.
The worst of this column excuses Trump's refusal to consistently admit Russian interference in our election, much less recognize it as an act of war against our democracy, because of Trump's own personal pride. Why let this man's ego compromise our country's safety?
Such willing suspension of disbelief leads intelligent, educated people to validate the illusion, resulting in apologizing for him, enabling him, supporting him in all but name – i.e., being Feeney. This is not healthy.
A highly-respected teacher offered a different meaning for advanced degree denominations, "B.S." and "Ph.D." Readers of this family newspaper will figure this out for themselves.

Beretta Holding expands its reach on the international market with the acquisition of iconic British gunmaker Holland & Holland, the world's premier provider of bespoke luxury hunting guns since 1835
Beretta Holding's reach on the international markets expands further in 2021 with a new acquisition, this time in the United Kingdom: starting February 1st, 2021, the quintessential Italian firearms manufacturer is the sole owner of Holland & Holland, Ltd. – a true legend in gunmaking history, established in London in 1835 and an icon of luxury and exclusive hunting guns ever since.
Back in 2019, the Beretta Holding had expanded on the fine guns market by acquiring French manufacturer Chapuis Armes; now, with the acquisition of Holland & Holland, the Beretta Holding acquires a truly legendary brand, well known for serving an élite clientele with the best and topmost line of bespoke luxury hunting rifles and shotguns in the world.
The terms and conditions of the contract have not been made public, but in its official press release, Beretta refers to Holland & Holland as the ideal partner to satisfy all the needs and demands of such a complex market segment as that of luxury hunting guns, and commits to preserve Holland & Holland's rich history, tradition and know-how of artisanal gunmaking in the UK.
Beretta's long history of generous investments in controlled brands will be honored with Holland & Holland, with the British bespoke gunmaker soon going to benefit from it. The acquisition contract also includes the Holland & Holland Shooting Ground – one of Britain's best and most exclusive shooting ranges, located just west of London – which will now be owned and controlled by the Beretta Holding.
Pietro Gussalli Beretta, President and CEO of the Beretta Holding:
"This is a truly exciting development and a historic milestone for the Beretta family and Group, whose international presence expands and consolidates even further. Even with the challenges of Brexit lying ahead, I am happy to increase our direct engagement on the British market, where the Beretta Group is already active with a very well-established distribution network."
