Educating for Global Citizenship in a Changing World
This ten chapter teacher's resource handbook provides a range of ideas and practices for teaching and learning about citizenship within today's global context. It will be helpful to teachers who are considering ways to critically infuse global perspectives into classes or school-wide programs. Topics include creating inclusive classrooms for global perspectives, investigating public issues, social justice and human rights, and getting involved as global citizens. This resource was developed by Toronto area teachers with assistance from CIDA. It also includes a very useful chapter on web resources for the classroom.
The Global Classroom: Putting Process to Content
By June N Williams
Because global education lessons are designed to develop a sense of efficacy in students, they are almost always interactive and student centered. Focusing on educational process, this practical guide for the classroom teacher provides concrete, hands-on strategies for implementing a global education approach at all grade levels and in all subject areas. Included are:
strategies for establishing a positive classroom environment
information and advice about student grouping
a step-by step guide to cooperative learning
information about authentic assessment
Global Infusion: A guide to Bringing the World to Your Classroom (doc)
This is an excellent teacher guide for implementing global curriculum in schools and extending the reach of education with a global perspective. It includes a description and rationale for global education and suggestions to engage the head, heart and hand through teaching globally. Links to CIDA development themes and numerous global education resources are provided. The guide was produced in 2005 by Diane Clipsham, retired Ontario teacher with feedback from educators across Canada and assistance from the Canadian International development Agency (CIDA). User-friendly, 12-page guide.
Lesson plan remodelling: A map for the global voyage
by Gale Smith
Many teachers are interested infusing a global perspective into their teaching in order to make the curriculum more relevant in an increasingly globally interconnected world. This document presents a guide for remodelling existing lesson plans to include a global perspective. Avoiding the "tourist" approach or using global content as a "add on," Gale Smith guides teachers to critically examine their lesson plans and transform them to true global education lesson plans that contribute to developing in students a global perspective.

Does Joshua 8:34-35 disprove oral law's existence?
I was reading about Karaite Judaism and it lists a number of reasons, some which I thought were compelling, for rejecting the Oral Law.
After that, he [Joshua] read all the words of the Torah, the Blessing and the Curse, according to all that is written in the Torah scroll. There was not a word of all that Moses had commanded that Joshua failed to read in the presence of the entire assembly of Israel, and the women, and the little ones, and the strangers that walked among them.
If Joshua read every command that Moses had commanded, then presumably there would be no room for the existence of non-written commands that would form an Oral Law.
How would you reconcile this passage with the existence of an Oral Law?
The statement "all the words of the Law" is modified by the next phrase "the blessing and the curse". The simple meaning of the verses is that Joshua explained benefits of keeping the law and vice versa. Not necessarily all commandments.
In addition to what Hacham Gabriel said, the written torah itself provides evidence that it is incomplete, e.g. in D'varim 12:21 God tells Moshe to slaughter animals "as I have commanded you", but nowhere in the written torah is how to do that discussed. Thus, there must have been some supplementary instruction that Moshe received from God on Sinai.
I don't have a source for the following; it is my own interpretation.
In both 8:34 and 8:35 the verb used is קָרָא , translated here as "read". This can be "read a document", which seems to apply in 34, but it can also mean "call" or "proclaim", as in the first word of the book of Vayikra, where God is clearly not reading anything but calling out to Moshe. So I speculate that Joshua read the scroll of the law and then "called" (proclaimed, "read out") the oral teaching, which obviously he couldn't read from a document since there was no document.
Joshua tought the oral law as well. Just because it doesn't specify the MILLIONS of Halachot it doesn't mean he didn't teach them.
The Torah is the basic outline for the commandments, but without the Oral Torah we are clueless. Like it says "don Tefilin." What are Tefilin? What shape? What color? How does it stay on my head?
He didn't just say "put Tefilin" and everyone started writing Tefilin with special intent that if not present would invalidate the entire thing.
God didn't expect us to just understand the 1000's of laws regarding each topic on our own! Joshua taught, and just because he did it doesn't mean they had to be written.
It is not inconsistent to say that Joshua read only the written Torah yet read every word that was commanded (in the written Torah). It's like a student who gets a C on a test for not including in the answers very basic information that was expected, and then complains to his professor, "But I memorized the textbook that you yourself wrote, and I wrote down in the exam booklet every word of it!" The professor's response is automatic and obvious - "You repeated every word I wrote in my textbook, but you left out all the information that was brought up in discussions in class, and all the other readings I assigned, and everything we talked about whenever you came to ask me questions!"
This can seem like a pretty significant proof-text but there are several issues that need to be pointed out.
No one would suggest that the Torah transcribed every word of Moshe spoke. People, as we know from the explicit text, consulted Moshe on a variety of issues for specific guidance. This responsibility was diffused to the Sanhedrin. Neither are specifically recorded.
Similarly it says all that Moshe commanded was read, that doesn't mean that every word of the details were written.
For the most part the entire Oral Law (meaning d'Oraisa of course, rather than d'Rabbanan) is written in the written law, it is just not explicit. Some would exclude halachos l'Moshe m'Sinai but I seem to recall that there are those who even include these.
Finally the clear peshat is to affirm that Yehoshua read all that was commanded by Moshe, not that Moshe wrote every word, even if you can construe the words to imply that.
The Hebrew word translated as "read" here is "קָ֣רָא" which doesn't only mean "read." In fact, if you look throughout the entire Tanakh, it about 95% of the time doesn't mean "read" but instead "called" or "proclaimed": https://biblehub.com/hebrew/kara_7121.htm Therefore, here it should be translated as (paraphrased) "there was not a word of all that Moses commanded that Joshua did not proclaim to the children of Israel."

On This Day: Boxing pioneer James J. Corbett passes away
Sam Corbishley explains how James J Corbett was so much more than just the 'Father of Modern Boxing'
HERITAGE – Born on September 1, 1866, James J Corbett was the son of Irish immigrants, his father hailing from Ballinrobe, County Mayo.
BANK CLERK – As a teenager, Corbett worked at the San Francisco branch of the Nevada Bank as an assistant receiving teller. It was this job which gave Corbett a glimpse of the refined, classy lifestyle he himself would later become synonymous with.
BOXER – "Gentleman Jim" was clearly well educated outside of the ring, but it was at San Francisco's Olympic Athletic Club, under the tutelage of an English professor named Walter Watson, where Corbett developed his boxing skills. Soon after turning professional he developed a local rivalry with a Jewish boxer named Joe Choynski, and after their first bout was halted by the police, Corbett claimed a 16th round knockout over his rival on a barge in the San Francisco Bay. An epic three hour, 61 round no contest with 'the Black Prince, Peter Jackson, two years later in May 1891 then established James as the premier contender for John L Sullivan's heavyweight title.
EXHIBITIONIST – Following his victory over Jackson, Corbett first shared a ring with Sullivan in a four-round exhibition match at San Francisco's Grand Opera House while the champion was on a theatrical tour on June 26, 1891. It was this brief meeting, in formal evening wear, which gave Corbett a taste of what was to come.
HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION – Almost a year and a half after this meeting, Corbett's manager, William A. Brady, secured his man a shot at the heavyweight title. It was to be the first fought under the Marquis of Queensberry Rules and would take place in a purpose-built 10,000 seat arena at the Olympic Club in New Orleans on September 7, 1892, for a winner-takes-all purse of $25,000. Over 80 years before Muhammad Ali allowed George Foreman to punch himself into exhaustion before going in for the kill, Corbett laid the foundations for this tactic by dodging Sullivan's power punches and landing sharp, crisp counters to leave his rival spent as early as the 14th. In the 21st, Sullivan was there for the taking and Corbett claimed the title with a hard right to the champion's jaw, followed by another to leave Sullivan face down on the canvas.READ Corbett's account of the historic victory
INNOVATOR – Corbett's triumph swayed the public toward the realisation that the heavyweight champion did not have to be rough and brutal, but could instead be decent and well-dressed. He also dispelled the myth that in order to be successful in the sport you had to possess a powerful punch, which increased boxing's popularity as those who were scared of lacking the power to be competitive inside the ring were encouraged by Corbett's technical approach.
BOXING COACH – Due to boxing being outlawed in most states at the time, not to mention the absence of boxing commissions to organise and regulate the sport, Corbett rarely defended his title and eventually lost it in his second defence to Bob Fitzsimmons on St Patrick's Day 1897. Denied a rematch with Fitzsimmons and failing in two separate bids to recapture the crown against James J Jeffries, he retired with an 11-4-3 record. Along with a blossoming career as an actor, Corbett continued coaching at the Olympic Club.
ACTOR – Corbett was not the first athlete to have taken to the stage, but he stood out for being one of the few who could actually act. Most of his income after he retired came from his appearances in plays, one-man shows recounting his boxing career and in silent films.
BOOKS AND FILMS – His memoirs, The Roar of the Crowd: The Rise and Fall of a Champion were published in book form in 1925, and Errol Flynn played Corbett in the 1942 Warner Bros. film based on his life, Gentleman Jim.
DEATH AND HALL OF FAME – James J Corbett passed away from cancer at his home in Bayside, New York on February 18, 1933, in the arms of his wife, Vera. He was interred at the Cypress Hills cemetery in Brooklyn, New York. In 1990, Corbett was inducted into the International Hall of Fame in Canastota, New York, in the Old Timer category.

Pickling is a funny pursuit. It starts with simple pickles of just cucumbers, like refrigerator pickles, and then moves on to more complicated techniques, like fermented sour pickles. Eventually you start pickling other vegetables like radishes and zucchini. I am know unable to resist a good pickle or pickling recipe.
When I came across this recipe for pickled peppers on Michael Rhulman's blog, I had to give it a try. The recipe is from a new book by Michael Symon, Live to Cook, which Rhulman collaborated on. Of course when I say, "Give it a try," I mean leave out half the ingredients either because I couldn't find them or I was too cheap. Even after I butchered the recipe, it still came out great.
Instead of using expensive sherry vinegar, I used cider vinegar. I also couldn't find a wide variety of peppers at Safeway so I ended up just going with Jalapenos and cherry peppers. Oh, and that Marojam? I left that out as well. And guess what…the pickles still came out great. This is a very robust recipe that can stand up to even me hacking at it. As long as you get the vinegar, sugar, salt and water ratios right it pretty much can't fail.
I liked the cherry peppers the best. The sweetness and fruitiness of the brine works perfectly with the cherry peppers. The first batch I made was perfect. I could eat a couple of peppers without them being too hot. The second batch was a lot hotter though and I had no problem breaking a little sweat. I guess the same variety of pepper can have a range of hotness. Batch three is going to be a plethora of peppers I picked up at the farmers' market. They weren't labeled, so I am hoping none of them are extremely hot.
From: Michael Rhulman's blogChoose a colorful variety of chillis, fresno, jalapeno, banana, tomato, serrano—the thick fleshed peppers work best. The method is very simple; simply fill a jar with peppers, bring the pickling liquid to a simmer and pour it hot over the peppers. You can use them once they're cooled but they're best after they've been sitting in the pickle for a few weeks. They'll keep for a long time–how long, I don't know because I always use them up for I can find out.
Place chillis in a jar and cover them with water. Pour off the water into a measuring cup. Note the volume, pour off half the water and replace it with vinegar. Add 2 tablespoons sugar and 2 tablespoons salt for every three cups of liquid.
Combine your liquid and remaining spices in a pot and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes, then let cool slightly.
Pour the pickling liquid over the peppers, screw the lid on and refrigerate. To use, slice into rings, chop or mince depending how you want to use them.
It looks good, and I have an overabundance of peppers… gotta try this!
I will try this very soon. It looks great. Does the current recipe reflect the measurements for kosher salt or table salt?
I used kosher salt. The original recipe didn't specify, so I am not 100% sure. Kosher salt worked great though!
To me cooking is all about adapting. If I tried to follow every recipe to a T I would be a broke mofo with a ton of leftover stuff that gets thrown in the compost bin.
I am in pepper overabundance right now with my garden and we are talking about a massive canning weekend of peppers.
Really curious what the cider vinegar does because I normally always pickle with white vinegar but have been seeing a lot of people using cider lately.
These sounds so great with the end of summer here! I can't wait to try this over the weekend! Us Texans love us some peppers! This will be perfect at a cookout!
Wow these look excellent!! I really love your pictures!
Not sure if the recipe mentioned this, but if you use pickling salt (no iodine added) or even sea salt, you can avoid that cloudiness in the brine.
Lovely peppers, though, I might have to steal your idea!
That is a great point! I used Kosher salt which also does not have any iodine and prevents that cloudiness.
I am going to update the recipe because the measurements are for kosher salt and would be different for table salt.

Security cluster will deal with individuals using protests for criminal gain
10 September 2019, 9:51 PM |
Defence minister Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula says more than 700 people have been arrested since violence broke out on the first of this month.
Image: SABC News
The chairperson of the Security Cluster, Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula, has admitted that the government does not know who is behind the recent spate of violence and looting in parts of Johannesburg.
Ministers serving on the cluster, consisting of State Security, Defence, Police, Home Affairs and Justice, briefed journalists in Parliament on Tuesday, on interventions to try and curb the violence.
Mapisa-Nqakula says such information would also not be made public.
The Defence minister says more than 700 people have been arrested since violence broke out on the first of this month.
"The charges for arrested range from arson public violence damage to property, theft, possession of stolen property possession of illegal firearms, attempted murder, and murder and contravention of gatherings act."
WATCH | Law enforcers to act against those exploiting protests: Mapisa-Nqakula
Meanwhile, Justice Minister, Ronald Lamola, says due process must be followed when granting or denying bail to anyone who has previously been convicted of a sex crime.
Lamola was part of the security cluster briefing at Parliament about the interventions government aims to make to bring an end to gender-based violence.
Lamola says while the Constitution provides guidance, judicial officers can also use their discretion.
"We have to look into what constitution says, due process, but magistrates across the country are able to look at conditions and concerns of communities, like with parole… when rehabilitated, use your discretion to give parole… but laws allow for person using that discretion to regard the concerns of the communities."

Davena describes herself as being controlling at times, however we like to say that there is simply nothing wrong with 'taking the bull by the horns' when necessary. She says she simply likes to take charge of the tasks that are handed to her with passion and enthusiasm so that she completes them in an excellent way. She is originally from Richards Bay but moved to Durban in 2009 and has loved it ever since. She now resides in Westville and is currently engaged. She has her Bachelors in Sport Science, at the University of KwaZulu Natal and Diploma in Coaching Science, at ETA, Durban.
Davena has found a sense of security through her love for fitness. For a long time, she struggled with her image but it was training with her friends that she found to be challenging (in a good way), it taught her how to love herself again and discover the enjoyment of life. The fitness industry inspired her to live a healthy lifestyle and this has transformed her life. She loves how ABC is so inspiring and motivating to women. "This different environment allows for women to feel comfortable and know that they are not alone on this journey of theirs and that they get motivation from both me as the Trainer and their friends." Her best advice to her campers would be to not rush the process, hard work takes time but always pays off in the end if you believe in the process and follow the plan.


That's why exploring narrow niches in specific marketplaces may be the best idea. A lower traffic area will often produce better results, especially given the fact that you need far less content to capture top attention and be recognized as a top expert in the field.
For me, my expertise is start-ups and entrepreneurship. I have done so many different businesses that to narrow and focus is not what interests me, and not what I'm about. That means that even though I am an expert in this area, I have to compete with a substantial amount of want-to-be experts on the subject and people have to take extra time to really figure out if I know what I am talking about, unless of course you know me personally.
Whatever your choice, you should know that to be considered at least a medium size site according to Google Webmaster Tools, you have be indexed with at least 250 pages of content. That means you probably need around 300 to 350 pages built of quality content.
Now that you have that information, you should be able to figure out how long it will take you to get your site to where you want it to be.

Patron Only Akuya(Eliza) Chapter 218
The budding spring at Kaldia Domain – 11
It was by the time when the snow has melted and wild flowers has started to bud when Claudia's brother, Nathanael, arrived at Kaldia.
After some greetings, I escort him to the village of the new citizens, which can also be seen from the current domain lord's mansion we were in.
After a while of walking on a suddenly vibrant street while being followed by curious gazes from the citizens,
"…….Hmm, I see. So this is the village that the people from Artolas made. Still, I can't believe that such splendid village can be establish in just a few years….., it's truly amazing"
Nathanael stated as he looked back at the road we just passed with fascination.
"Indeed, it's one of the things Kaldia is proud of. Because despite of being unaccustomed to their new environment, everyone still did such a great job."
I nodded with a hint of embarrassment.
In order to retain my composure, I put all efforts to ignore the fact that a girl who was weeding the field on our side suddenly stood up and run elsewhere. Ugh…. I'm sure this will spread all over the village now that I've been heard….
"I heard that many of the excellent troops of Kaldia helped with the construction, is that true?"
"Hm…. ah, yes. The army was included in most of the construction"
Kaldia's military was used in developing this village in the first place. After that, soldiers from the Shiru tribe also became part of the construction.
Even now, the military would be the first one to move if there's any expansion or rebuilding, or even cultivation and irrigation works within the domain. That's the reason why the construction skills of Kaldia's army are high.
……Most of the men who came from Artolas belongs to the Shiru tribe. Since people such as the Sellion farmers lives outside the Bandishia plateau, they quickly received Dansel troops attacks. That's why many men sacrificed themselves in order for the women and children to escape.
This is one of the main reasons why the Shiru tribe remained as the usher for the new citizens, though it's also partly because of their influence during the time where Artolas still existed.
"It's a nice village. Not because it has a great view but because its people are all in good shape"
I sincerely expressed my gratitude to him who was smiling happily as he let out a praise.
I really think that he is indeed a sincere and outstanding person. It's not like I was doubting it, since he's the person that Claudia look up too and completely trust.
Rather, It's because he's like that, that's why I think so.
I cannot predict what will happen to his awaiting duel with Oscar.
Whether he will win, or not.
All I can do is to watch and see for myself.
I can't help but feel nervous.
"Now then, let's proceed with the match"
Back in the domain lord's mansion, after the introduction of Oscar was over, both of us swallowed the urge we're feeling as Nathanael remove his top as he states those words.
This feeling of exhaustion, it's completely the same with Claudia. As expected of siblings.
"…… excuse me but, how about having lunch first? you still haven't taken a rest from walking around the village"
"Ah, there's no problem. Also, my movements will become dull if I eat so it's better to finish some light work out first"
Light…… Light? Did I not mention that it's a duel?
I clearly stated in the letter that it will be a "duel".
And of course, a duel is a serious match. It doesn't just have a high risk of injury, there's also a possibility of death involved.
Above all that, Claudia's engagement is at stake here. I can't think of it as some light workout……
While feeling uncertain, Nathanael nonchalantly laughed at me.
I currently have a confused expression on my face, as if wanting to ask what's so funny
Beside him was Claudia who has the same expression. Upon this, mine and Oscar's shoulders dropped as we gave in.
"…………I understand. We shall finish that first then. I was thinking of using the courtyard as the ground , is that alright with you?
"Yes, of course. It won't take long so no need to worry."
I saw Oscar as he casually wrap around my back. The sword he was holding furiously shakes as he grips on it.
Well, It does sound like he's being looked down upon. It's the same as saying " Fighting with someone like you won't take long"
But probably, no, surely Nathanael didn't mean any harm. don't feel like he's looking down on him.
……I'm sure that Nathanael is also aware of their difference in strength since Claudia guaranteed his way of making prediction and it's accuracy
Although I didn't think that he was the kind of person that difference to his opponent, even though he doesn't mean it
Just what in the world is he thinking……?
My stomach started to get heavy as I feel more and more nervous. When I was about to unconsciously wrap my hands around it
…………I noticed Claudia who's currently preparing her spear and gauntlet. The hands that were about to wrap to my stomach almost held my head instead.
"……um, Claudia…… What are you doing?"
"Hm? What do you mean?"
"Uh……. Why are you picking up your weapon even though we're about to begin their duel?"
"…………?Why, you ask? Aren't Oscar and I going to duel with my brother together?"
Wait a minute.
What did she say?
It's my first time hearing that.
Look. Oscar, who probably feels the same way as I do, looks completely drained!
Even though the duel is about to begin, what are you gonna do about this!?

AWAKENING OUR BRITISH ANCESTRY
We had our first guest after the lockdown was eased. I was happy about it but found it physically more tiring like it was the first time we started off this Airbnb service. Lachlan sounded friendly but I had to serve the Common customer at the highest standard I was capable of. When Lachlan arrived and I showed him around, I felt comfortable – as if he were a known person. The reason was Lachlan's 'junior attitude'.Later Lachlan asked us about our origins and when we said Sri Lanka, Lachlan said that his grandmother had lived there. It was pleasant to note that, but I did not go further into it. Later in the evening, Lachlan put us on to his mum on the phone and the mum gave us details of where her father had worked (Rookwood Tea Estate) and the places around Kandy that she had been to. The lady said that her mother was born in the nursing home opposite Dalada Maligawa – where the sacred tooth of Lord Buddha is. Learning about this commonness from our British past made me feel good – especially because it was Deepawali day for us.
This morning I read the Daily News article 'The grand Hindu Kovil by the Northern Sea' by Dishan Joseph who to my mind was a Catholic. At a time when religious minorities are concerned about 'One Country, One law politics, under Buddhist leadership – this article demonstrated affirmative action from a Catholic towards majority in Northern Sri Lanka. The light of wisdom is in that article. That is true Deepavali message.
Today is the anniversary of the day I learnt about the Universal power of Truth. It was on this day that red holy powder appeared on my picture of Swami Sai Baba – confirming to me the Universal power of Truth, known also as Soul Power. On the same day, the Sydney Morning Herald published the Auditor General's work upholding my discoveries. The parallel of that would be the Auditor General of Sri Lanka publishing a report on the imbalance that articles in the Sri Lankan constitution generate, and someone brings it to my notice. The foremost of this is Article 9 which renders Buddhism – the foremost status. It is the parallel of stating that husband comes first in a family. The AG does not need to wait for the Political outcome through the Presidential Task Force. The Administrator needs to be first amongst Equals in this instance. That would prevent the President from losing his own dignity as an Administrator.
As per my discovery, when we accept junior position but work more effectively than the senior the 'gap' develops as Energy. Today is also the beginning of the period when Junior-looking Murugan led the powerful looking Asuran to surrender:
[Sashti is the day that Lord Muruga defeated the demon Soorapadman. When the devas could not tolerate the evil doings of this demon, they approached the younger son of Lord Shiva and Parvati for his assistance. He fought Soorapadman for six days, at the end of which the Lord vanquished the asura. He threw his weapon at him and split Soorapadman into two halves. One half became a peacock, which he took as his Vahana. The other became a rooster and was transformed into his banner.]
The weapon used by Murugan was given by Mother Shakthi/Energy. The underlying philosophy is that Asuras who have strong muscle power could not be defeated by males who relatively have stronger physical than females and boys. Hence they needed Shakthi – Mother who is often considered junior to Father and also the younger of the two boys – Ganesah and Murugan. In a subjective system the elder takes over the leadership from the father. One is therefore entitled to conclude that juniors by gender and age were needed to defeat Asuran.
Today's version of vertical measure of age – majority through lateral measure The gender measure continues to be the same. Hence, today's Murugan would be from the minority who is blessed by the mother.
Why did the Devas not approach Ganesh? Due to the reason that an Asuran would use the same measure as he did with higher thinkers i.e. – physical power. Ganesh was physically bigger and older than Murugan . Between Politics and Administration, Politics is the parallel of Ganesh and Administration is the younger brother Muruga.
The Tamils went global – confirming that Sri Lankan Asuran in Politics is now the vehicle of minorities. The Rooster Banner are the policies of the minorities – not as Equals but juniors of other minorities who led through Administrative power. They may seem juniors by numbers but through global consciousness they announce their victory through reliable administration.
As Equals – we would be like Buddhists – unless we have separation of powers. As per my study of Jaffna – we do better when we have competition. As apparent juniors we quietly spread our powers laterally with the weapon inherited from our Administrative elders – including the British. The rest will happen so long as we do not react.
The new Attorney General Mr Sanajay Rajaratnam has been presented as follows by Wikipedia:
[He's a Solicitor of England and Wales and also holds a Master of Laws (Merit) from the Queen Mary University of London. ]
The British are his Shakthi. Will he honour them and publish a report like the Auditor General of NSW did on 05 November 1998? If yes, the legal asuras will become our Rooster.

Q: Automatically resize Vega map based on lat/long or geojson I am attempting to create a map option within a data dashboard, where the map will always be of the state of Texas. For that reason, I don't want to give the user the ability to change the scale or recenter the map, because it's more likely to create confusion than contribute anything beneficial. However nearly all of the Vega documentation examples revolve around maps with that functionality.
I do, however, need the view to change based on the user's screen size and changes to the dashboard window. For that reason I've been trying to use Vega's "fit" and "size" properties, rather than explicitly defining a center and scale. At this point I've gotten the map working, with the legend where it needs to be, colors are all right, etc., but I can't figure out how to get the window to resize on anything other than the full projection. Because I'm working with only a single state, albersUSA is the closest I can get but it's still far too wide of a view.

Based on the documentation, I understand "fit" works on geojson data and I've tried using the original map data, and I even went ahead and just created a version with a square the approximate size of Texas, so I could place the coordinates directly into the javascript, but nothing has worked.
Does anyone have any idea on how to get this working?

30 min of unfiltered truth, news the way it should be reported, without political correctness. I believe the Socialist, Communist and Islamist are destroying America, one state at a time. AMERISLAM is underway within America, the onslaught has been underway since the 1940's. Then came the MB in the late 1950's, all 3 working behind the scenes until Feb 1993 when Islamic Jihadist detonated explosives in the garage of the World Trade Center. This attack was the first SHOCK to Americas foundation, the second SHOCK was September 2001. The 2nd attack worked brillantly for the Jihadist, Socialist, and Communist.
The Socialist / Communist worked behind the scenes, in the shadows of the hallways of politics for decades, majority of Americans understand the threat they pose to our society, not only politically, also spiritually as the majority are atheists and or agnostics. The second attack created an atmosphere where moderate islamists could apologize for Jihadists, to the extent politicians stood on the senate floor and pronounced their undying love of Islam.
The Jihadist is a different type of enemy, they claim spirituality and worship a deity they claim to be GOD, same deity Christians and Hebrews worship, giving the jihadist / Islamist a hedge of protection. They hide behind a faith, a religion and a majority of Americans will turn the other cheek, fearful of being stigmatized as intolerant towards another religion.

Carter Brown is the founder and director of Black Trans Men Inc. and the BTAC – The Black Trans Advocacy Coalition. On April 2nd he testified before the 116th Congressional House Judiciary Committee advocating for the Equality Act. Despite significant steps forward, LGBTQ people lack basic legal protections in all 50 states across the country. If approved by Congress, the Equality Act would amend the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to include protections for members of the LGBTQ community.
Carter was living the American dream. He not only excelled in his career but bought a home and settled down with his wife and newborn daughter in Texas. All of that changed in an instant when Carter was outed by his colleagues as transgender. What followed was months of discrimination and harassment by his peers, managerial staff and even human resources. Brown was ultimately fired simply because of who he is. Along with several other individuals from the LGBTQ community, He told his story at the hearings explaining how not only his life but the lives of LGBTQ Americans in 30 states are affected by discrimination because they lack protection from discrimination simply because of who they love.
Ironically these hearings opened on the same day that three lesbians were elected Mayor of their respective cities, including Lori Lightfoot the first African American woman and openly lesbian mayor of Chicago and a ban on Transgender persons serving in the military goes is enacted affecting the lives of Trans men. women and their famiies.
While advocating for the Equality Act, Carter and BTAC are in the midst of planning for the 8th Annual BTAC Conference taking place in Dallas, Texas April 23 – 28th. The theme of this 8th annual conference is Level Up: Elevate the Revolution. This year's conference is on track to be attended by the greatest number of participants to date.

In 2017, an enslaver's descendant found his 1841 will, naming eleven enslaved African Americans. She started trying to research them, and quickly found the difficulties confronting those seeking their African-American ancestors' stories. When she realized she had access to information they would have trouble finding, she created a website -- TheyHadNames.net -- to document the many African-American names found in antebellum Liberty County records. More than 5,000 names from wills, estate inventories, bills of sale, deeds of collateral, and church records have so far been added to the site. These names are missing from other published compilations of these records. The eleven enslaved people who inspired the site have not been forgotten. The search continues but so far five of their descendants now have their family history back to 1793.
Stacy Ashmore Cole retired from the federal civil service in 2014 to Brunswick, Georgia. She began researching her family history, a hobby that quickly turned into an obsession, especially once she discovered that her paternal ancestors were all from the Georgia counties of Liberty, Dooly and Wilcox. She has since become secretary of the Liberty County's Midway Museum Board of Governors, and president of the Coastal Georgia Genealogical Society (CGGS). Combining an interest in social media with a love of genealogy and history, she developed the Midway Museum, CGGS and her own TheyHadNames.net web pages, and is an administrator for the CGGS, Midway Museum, and Liberty County Historical Society Facebook pages/groups. She is also the host of GenealogyTrail.com's Liberty County page, and was a speaker at the 2018 annual Susie King Taylor Mami Wata Rising conference in Midway, Georgia.

What is the Winter Solstice?
By Science and Technology Concepts Middle School
If you have ever gone swimming in summer or had a snowball fight in winter, then you know something about seasons. Seasons are times on Earth that have very specific weather patterns and hours of daylight. Earth's four seasons are spring, summer, fall, and winter. Seasons are caused by Earth's changing position as it revolves around the Sun. Some people think that the seasons occur because of Earth's distance from the Sun.
It's All About the Tilt: Seasons Misconceptions Debunked
By Sarah Wells
In the winter, when the days get shorter and the weather gets increasingly colder, it can seem like the Sun has forsaken us. I mean, after all, that's when we are farthest from it—both physically and emotionally—right? Well, not exactly. While it might make sense to think that colder days equals farther distance from the Sun, it's really not quite so simple.

Womens Hoops Bedlam Tonight In Stillwater
PHOTO/Getty Images-Icon Sportswire
There will be Bedlam tonight on the historic white maple floor of Gallagher-Iba Arena in Stillwater. The OU and OSU womens basketball teams will meet in Big 12 action. The Cowgirls are 10-3 overall and 1-0 in the conference while the Sooners are 7-6 and 0-1.
OSU's outstanding forward Natasha Mack is the national player of the week for her performances in a couple of games last week, including Saturday's 25-point, 20-rebound, 9-block game against previously undefeated Kansas.
Also in Morning Sports we hear from Thunder coach Billy Donovan about Chris Paul leading OKC to another come-from-behind win. The Thunder beat the Brooklyn Nets 111-103 in overtime last night after trailing by as many as seven points.
OSU mens basketball coach Mike Boynton says he thinks his guys played good enough on the defensive end to have beaten West Virginia on Monday but scoring only 41 points themselves won't get the Cowboys any wins in the Big 12. We hear what Boynton had to say and why he's confident going forward.
All that and more in today's Morning Sports...

Griechenland und die Ionischen Inseln mit Beachtung der Klassischen Zeit.
A fascinating example of the 1853 Justus Perthes map of Greece and the Ionian Islands during the Classical Period. The map covers from Corfu to Cerigo, including the Ionian Islands, euboea, the Cyclades, and the Sporades. Two inset maps in the upper right quadrant detail the area between Athens and Piraeus, and the environs of Athens. The classical period in Greek history, which lasted from the 5th century B.C. through the 4th century B.C. greatly influenced the Roman empire's politics, art, architecture, philosophy and literature.
Throughout, the map identifies various cities, towns, rivers and assortment of additional topographical details. Political and regional borders are highlighted in outline color. Unlike other cartographic publishers of the period, the Justus Perthes firm, did not transition to lithographic printing techniques. Instead, all of their maps are copper plate engravings and hence offer a level of character and depth of detail that was impossible to find in lithography or wax-process engraving. All text is in German. Designed and drawn by Friedrich von Stülpnagel and issued as plate no. 38c in the 1854 edition of Stieler's Hand-Atlas.
Very Good. Moderate overall foxing. Original centerfold reinforced on verso. Blank on verso.

SUEZ inaugurates the Valomet industrial unit: a European pioneer in the recovery of ultra-fine metal particles from household and industrial waste
Today, Jan Jambon, Flemish Minister-President, and Jean-Marc Boursier, SUEZ Chief Operating Officer, inaugurate the largest unit in the European Union for the extraction and recovery of ultra-fine non-ferrous metal particles from bottom ash. The Valomet unit in Ghent's port area, North Sea Port, will offer a second life to the metal particles previously untapped.
Small objects containing metal, such as ballpoint pens and chip cards, include a number of components that end up in household waste. SUEZ produces secondary materials and green energy from this waste. The bottom ash (residual waste from the energy-from-waste process) is mainly recovered for use as a underlay for road and runway building.
The Valomet unit: innovation for the circular economy
SUEZ transports bottom ash from some fifty European energy-from-waste plants managed by the Group in Europe to its processing plant in Grimbergen. An ultra-fine fraction is extracted: a concentrate of non-ferrous metal made up of particles of between 0 and 20 mm.
Today, using the innovative Valomet process developed in-house, SUEZ is going one step further by recovering mainly aluminium, copper and a residual minerals from this fraction. The aluminium and copper are then reintroduced into the production process through foundries and metal refineries in Belgium and in Europe. The residual minerals are returned to the Grimbergen plant to be recovered again.
With a €1 million support from the Flemish government, the new plant marks a key step for the circular economy in Flanders and Europe. By recovering bottom ash, the process helps to protect natural resources. The Valomet process recovers copper and aluminium using 80 and 95% less energy respectively than traditional mineral extraction processes, thereby also reducing CO2 emissions.
Jan Jambon, Flemish Minister-President, says: "The circular economy offers great opportunities for our industry and society. Valomet is a good example."
The recovery of residual waste into new secondary raw materials plays a key environmental role by reducing waste volumes and protecting the planet's natural capital. Supported by the Flemish government, this innovative European project further strengthens SUEZ's position throughout the waste recovery chain and adds value to the fine metal particles contained in bottom ash. The pilot project, which began in 2014, extracted 1,300 tonnes of non-ferrous metal a year. From 100 tonnes of household and industrial waste, we extract at the end of the process 200kg of pure aluminium, 50kg of pure copper and 21 g of precious metals.

I only recently heard of the brand Coros. They are a quiet, but strong contender in a market dominated by Garmin and Suunto. Coros offers two GPS watches: the Pace and the Apex. The Apex comes in two sizes, 46 mm and 42 mm. The larger watch boasts a 35 hour battery life in full GPS mode. The smaller one 25 hours. I bought the big one. When I say big one it still looks small next to my Suunto Ambit3 Sport and it is very light on the wrist. You can adjust the GPS accuracy downwards to go up to 100 hours, but it can be charged while recording so I will opt to charge on the go with an Anker and maintain higher accuracy when that situation arises.
Yesterday I took the Apex out in the Chuckanuts for a first run. I was having a bad day and went slow and took lots of breaks that I paused it during. It ended up recording 10.0 miles on a route my Suunto had previously recorded as 11.4 miles. I ran the Strava app on my iphone as a control and it clocked 12.0 miles. They were both wrong in opposite directions and I wasn't sure what to think. Everything else was awesome on the Coros so I was nervous. I wanted all of its positive features, but I didn't want a watch that measures short.
Today I decided to test it head to head against my Suunto that has a pretty accurate history with mileage (just tends to get pace very wrong when synced to Strava lately and loses map segments at random.) My thought was that comparing them under the same level of cloud cover, atmospheric pressure, temperature, and other possibly influential factors would better ascertain if Coros measures short. I will pretend I picked the route to offer 6 miles of largely open urban trail and 4 miles of technical trail with elevation change under tree cover to test them in two terrain scenarios simultaneously. In reality, I haven't really felt like running this weekend and this was the laziest route available to me.
For equality I decided to not pause either watch the entirety of the run and count on each watch's auto pause to adjust out the various photo taking breaks, one pee stop, and one quick convo stop when I ran into a friend. The Apex knocked 9 minutes off when it synced to Strava which sounds about right for my lazy day. At the end of my run the Coros read 10.47 miles and the Suunto 10.49. Not a material difference at all! That was all I needed to see to be 100% sold on the Coros. Side note, it sells for a very reasonable $350, notably less than Suunto or Garmin watches with equivalent features.
The Apex provides a lot of data, both while in use and in the Coros app once synced. It has wrist heart rate, tracks cadence, provides average stride length, gives current elevation, total ascent and descent and I caught it taking my skin temperature the other day. It likely has a lot of other features I am not aware of as today is Sunday, it was delivered to my office on Friday, and we have only had 20.5 miles together so far.
I wanted to regain heart rate tracking in my training in my quest for a new watch. My Suunto came with a chest strap that started malfunctioning 6 months in. I had it replaced under warranty and the second strap went bad within 4 months. Beyond the reliability issues chest straps aren't very fun to wear with sports bras. The wrist HR on the Coros was appealing. The app provides average, high, low, and time in each HR zone in addition to some nice charts. Also charted were my cadence, pace, and elevation. Based on what my average HR used to be when my Suunto strap still functioned the Coros HR data seemed reasonably accurate.
It also comes with multiple straps for color variety and a huge variety of digital watch faces can be used. The operation is two button, feels simple in a good way, and I like how the back-light will come on from purposeful wrist movement rather than requiring a button. I have a 50k coming up late this month and am excited to have the Coros with me for the race. I will be in the mid-pack per usual but my new watch is an Apex predator amongst the GPS crowd for certain.

Ellen's Track Record
Energy Legislation Amendment (Consumer Protection) Bill 2015
Posted by Benjamin Maher 241tea on September 17, 2015
Ms SANDELL (Melbourne) — It will probably be no surprise to anyone that the Greens will support this bill. We believe action to stop consumers being held hostage by power companies is long overdue, and we support any effort to improve the oversight of energy companies. I commend the government for bringing this bill to the house.
As has already been mentioned, the bill strengthens compliance and enforcement mechanisms and creates stronger reporting requirements for energy companies. Consumer protection is especially important in the delivery of essential services, but it is even more important when those essential services have been privatised. When they have been privatised it is more important than ever that the government be vigilant in monitoring their delivery that it sets high standards for companies that benefit from the community's dependence on the services that they provide.
It is good news that we will be subjecting these companies to greater scrutiny, increasing the costs to the companies for disconnecting customers and also restricting the ability of those companies to change their tariffs and charge exit fees. Hopefully this will force energy companies in Victoria to lift their game and stop ripping off Victorian consumers.
The part of the bill I particularly want to highlight is, of course, the part that deals with solar energy. The Greens have repeatedly called for an end to punishing people who have solar, so I am pleased to see that the bill removes the power of energy companies to inflict additional so-called penalty charges on solar households. It is being done by energy companies in a desperate bid to maintain their fossil fuel-powered status quo and discourage people from going solar to safeguard their stranglehold on the energy market. Energy retailers have been slapping higher chargers on solar owners for the privilege of accessing the grid, which is not fair.
The opposition shamefully defended this practice when it was in government. I listened carefully to the contribution from the member for Morwell. When he was Minister for Energy and Resources he grossly misjudged community feelings about solar power when he tried to say that solar customers were a burden on the electricity grid. Instead of standing up for Victorians powering their homes by sun, he sided with multinational corporation GDF Suez — incidentally the owner of Australia's dirtiest power station at Hazelwood — when it slapped a 14 cents-per-day levy on solar households. To single out solar customers as a burden on our poles and wires is a ridiculous furphy. It is only promulgated by politicians who are wedded to the old coal-powered economy, not those who have a vision for the future.
Solar owners and solar supporters have said enough is enough. I am pleased that so many people with solar power or who support solar power have stood up and said that they are prepared to vote for it. The polls say it. Campaigns to save solar and renewables have been run by organisations like the Australian Solar Council, Yes2Renewables and Solar Citizens, forcing Labor and Liberal governments in every jurisdiction to make genuine commitments to supporting solar power. I say well done to those organisations, and also well done to the Andrews government for listening to the repeated calls of the community, the renewable energy sector and the Greens to end the penalty tariffs for solar owners. I am pleased to see it is part of the bill. The bill requires energy companies to offer renewable energy customers the same deals as non-renewable energy customers, but it does not stop them from making special deals available to renewable energy customers in addition to the deals available to everyone else, which is good. I hope forward thinking energy companies will use this as a way to encourage their customers to convert to solar, rather than punishing them for doing so.
In the context of this bill, I also want to make some brief remarks about the bigger picture. The bill is finally aiming to even up the playing field a little bit, but we cannot stop there. The government should be actively trying to accelerate solar power and renewables in the state to position Victoria at the forefront of the energy transformation we are seeing throughout the world. Victoria has taken some encouraging steps, which is good to see, but we are still being left behind. Other jurisdictions are doing more. The ACT has a renewable energy target of 100 per cent by 2025. It is using that target to even build wind farms here in Victoria, and Victoria is missing out on that opportunity while the ACT is taking it up. We have seen South Australia provide grants for battery storage, which is being rolled out in Adelaide at the moment. We have seen Queensland pledge to double the amount of rooftop solar it installs. Even Western Australia, with its conservative government, is talking about closing down its fossil fuel power stations, replacing them with solar programs, which is an encouraging step.
The provision in the bill to abolish the unfair treatment of solar owners is a good start, but we should be working out what else we can do. We are still waiting for the federal government to set an ambitious renewable energy target, and I hope it does so after its consultations on the renewable energy road map have finished. I am sure the stakeholders consulted through that process will all be pushing for an ambitious target. It should be much more than the 20 per cent baseline set by the government. The Greens say it should be no less than 90 per cent by 2030, and we are quickly shifting our sights to 100 per cent. Many studies have shown the technology is available today, so let us take it up.
We also need a proactive plan not just to support renewables but to take out some of our fossil fuel-powered supply. We know there is an oversupply in the grid at the moment, and it is going to be very difficult for renewables to break into the grid if we do not take out some of that dirty fossil fuel power, especially at Hazelwood. I have spoken in this house many times about the need to replace Hazelwood, which is Australia's dirtiest power station and one of the dirtiest in the entire world, with renewable energy. We need a proactive transition plan for the workers and communities in that area so that they have some certainty for the future. The Greens have been calling for that over the last 10 months.
The Greens have a few other ideas, which we hope the government will take up. They are good ideas backed by industry and the community, and they include things like the Victorian solar bank, which could be an innovative finance mechanism to complement the Clean Energy Finance Corporation. I have also called in this place for the government to partner with the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) to build large-scale solar programs in Victoria. Recently ARENA announced a large solar program and it is looking for partners. Here in Victoria we could use that as a great opportunity to get some federal money into our solar programs.
It is great to see the government's inquiry into a fair price for solar, but I am also calling on the Minister for Energy and Resources to immediately reverse the cuts to the recently announced solar feed-in tariffs, which is now down to 5 cents a kilowatt hour. A lot of my constituents and other people across Victoria, particularly in the outer suburbs and regional Victoria, are upset about that price; they feel like it is a bit of a betrayal by the government. That price could be immediately reversed while we look into a fair price for solar. Households investing in solar energy are making an investment in the future of this state. They are making an investment in a safe climate — not just for us but for future generations. These kinds of actions by Victorians should be applauded. They should be rewarded, not punished. It is good to see that the bill goes some way towards doing that.
In addition to the provisions in this bill, I will list a few other things the government could be doing to build renewable energy in Victoria. We could be seeing financial support for battery storage. This is one of the innovative technologies and disruptions happening in the energy space; it is very exciting. I am sure all Victorians would love to see grants or subsidies, or some other encouragement, not only for producing their own energy but also for being able to store it on site. It could also be a great way to boost investment and create jobs in industry in the Latrobe Valley, and many people in the Latrobe Valley have mentioned this to me as a good idea.
We could have three-way contracts between suppliers, consumers and the government to help with the cost of installing solar panels, the innovative finance ideas I have mentioned and we could put solar panels on the roof of every Victorian school, which is a program I was working on almost 10 years ago in the Department of Premier and Cabinet. That project was canned, but it seems like a really good idea and one that could be resurrected. We could have solar panels on public housing. We could have solar panels on every Victorian government building. We could power our trams and trains with renewable energy. We need to address the complex regulatory barriers that are holding back community renewables projects, and there are many around my area who have come to see me about these barriers. They need to be removed.
Lastly I want to mention briefly energy efficiency. We cannot ignore the fact that energy efficiency is a really vital part of any response to climate change and energy policy. We could take some small steps, or we could have some vision and do some really big things that improve not only our response to climate change but the livability of our housing stock, save people money and save the government money as well — things like significant upgrades to public housing rather than just a few upgrades. At the moment I think at the rate at which we are upgrading public housing it will take 40 years to update the energy efficiency of the stock, and that is just too long. We could have minimum standards for existing houses. The One Million Homes Alliance is calling for a target of an average of five stars for all Victorian homes by 2025. It is an ambitious target, but that is the kind of thing we need to be looking at rather than just a piecemeal or step-by-step approach.
The policy of all Victorian homes having an average 5-star rating is something the previous Labor government announced in 2010, so there is a precedent for this policy, and I look forward to the government reannouncing that policy. It has not made any noises about it yet, but it is a really good, ambitious energy efficiency policy that social groups, consumer groups, environment groups, climate groups and the Greens support. We will be watching to make sure that these energy efficiency announcements are sufficiently ambitious. There are some really exciting things we can do in this space, to not only help improve our energy policy in response to climate change but to save the government and consumers money. These are core Labor values. Labor talks about these values all the time, and I hope it puts them into practice in energy efficiency policy.
In conclusion, the bill makes a good start, and the Greens are happy to support it, but let us take this opportunity to affirm a much larger, bolder vision for energy in this state. Now really is the time to be ambitious; we do not have any more time to wait if we are going to deal with the impacts of climate change. I do not want this state to be one that just does the minimum. I do not want this government to be one that is just slightly better than the opposition, which set a very low bar. I would really like it to leave a strong legacy of energy policy in the state, and I will support the government if it does.

Q: WiX major upgrade doesn't complete installation until spawned I created an installer based upon the code I found here. If a previous version of the app exists, I want the installer to delete it before installing the new one.
If it's a clean install, everything goes well.
If it's an upgrade, a weird thing happens. As expected, the old version is removed, the registry is changed, and shortcuts are placed on the desktop.  Oddly, the primary file doesn't exist in the application folder when the installer completes.
Upon launch after an upgrade, a small installer message box pops up and states "Please wait while Windows configures -app name-..".  After this quick message, the file exists as it should in the app folder, and the app launches.
Prior to launch though, it's not there. I even tried a reboot before launching the app to see if that would place the file if it's stuck in a some kind of cache.
Anyone ever see this behavior?  It's a bit like this questiom, but it happens on every upgrade.

A:
Oddly, the primary file doesn't exist in the application folder when the installer completes.

This is a common problem with windows installer upgrades if components are not managed correctly. You'll typically see that the missing file re-appears if you launch the installer into maintenance mode from the control panel and do a "repair". In this case, windows repaired the application automatically when you launched it.
A few possible explanations of the top of my head:

*

*the new version of your installer installs this file in a component with a new GUID. This causes problems because Component GUIDs should remain stable.

*your installer installs multiple files per component. This causes problems because whether a component should be installed is determined by the keypath, and only one file can be the keypath. Stick to one file per component.

*The "new version" of the file actually has a lower version number. Such an "upgrade" doesn't work correctly.

Exclusive Clip: Inside JFK Jr.'s White House World
By Lily Rothman
John F. Kennedy Jr. was born before after his father's election as president but before the inauguration, which meant he was in the spotlight from day one—and only had to wait a few weeks to move into the White House. By age 2, TIME was noting that "he has met more heads of state than most people can name." When he got a haircut, it was national news. And, in 1963, tragedy ensured that JFK Jr. would forever be a subject of fascination for the American public: One TIME reader suggested that December, in the wake of the assassination of the elder Kennedy, that "three-year-old John–John saluting the coffin bearing his father's body" should be featured on that year's Man of the Year cover.
The new documentary I Am JFK Jr. uses interviews with Kennedy's close friends and vintage film footage to tell a new version of the story of Kennedy's life, work and fame. And, as posited by the experts in this exclusive clip from the film, that fame was not perceived in the same way by two of the people who were most responsible for it: his parents.
To his mother, Jackie Kennedy, the little boy and his sister were to be protected from the spotlight, which she knew could warp a child's life. To his father, however, that spotlight was to be enjoyed. The children were one more facet of the life of a president whose youth had captured the nation's hearts, and they were much beloved by the media and the public. Their antics were, as TIME phrased it in 1963, "hilarious" to their father.
Get your history fix in one place: sign up for the weekly TIME History newsletter
But, suggests All the Presidents' Children author Doug Wead, the famous photographs of JFK Jr. playing in the Oval Office could only have been possible if Mrs. Kennedy didn't know what was going on at that moment. I Am JFK Jr. premieres on Spike TV on Monday night.
