by Houston Texans Official Release January 18, 2023 0 comment
Former Houston Texans WR Andre Johnson has been named a finalist for the Pro Football Hall of Fame for the second consecutive year. Johnson, who was the inaugural member of the Texans' Ring of Honor, joins 15 modern-era finalists for the Class of 2023.
"Once again, I'd like to congratulate Andre on this tremendous honor," Texans Co-Founder and Senior Chair Janice McNair said. "I'm so proud of him and everything he has accomplished on and off the field. He is a shining example of a teammate, friend and father, and he's already a Hall of Famer in my book."
"I'm thrilled for Andre that he has again earned this well-deserved recognition," Texans Chair and CEO Cal McNair said. "He is a legend in every sense of the word, and I will always be grateful for his incredible contributions to our team and the impact he continues to have on our organization and the City of Houston. From the day he became a Texan in 2003, he was the definition of a competitor on the field and a pillar in our community. We will continue to take every opportunity to celebrate Andre's career and everything he has accomplished."
Johnson played 12 seasons with the Texans and is the all-time leader in nearly every receiving category including career receptions (1,012), receiving yards (13,597), receiving touchdowns (64) and 100-yard games (51). Johnson also holds multiple single-game records for the Texans, including most receptions (14), receiving yards (273) and receiving touchdowns (three) in a game.

After being drafted with the third overall pick in the 2003 NFL Draft, Johnson played and started 169 games for the Texans from 2003-14 and led the team in receptions and receiving yards in 10 of those seasons. He set the single-season franchise record for receptions with 115 in 2008 and receiving yards with 1,598 in 2012. Johnson also had a stretch of 133 consecutive games played with a reception (11/6/05 to 12/21/14) and scored 64 career touchdowns with the Texans, which marks the second most in franchise history.
Following his final two seasons with the Indianapolis Colts and Tennessee Titans, Johnson signed a one-day contract with the Texans that allowed him to retire as a member of the organization. The team honored him at a press conference on Wednesday, April 19, 2017, at NRG Stadium and also on Sunday, Nov. 19, 2017 during their game against the Arizona Cardinals, when they inducted him as the inaugural member of the Texans' Ring of Honor at halftime.
Johnson, who founded the Andre Johnson Foundation in 2003 as a way to give back to the community, finished his career with 1,062 catches for 14,185 yards and 70 touchdowns. He was a four-time All-Pro selection (2006, 2008-09, 2012) and seven-time Pro Bowler (2005, 2007, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2013, 2014).
The Hall of Fame selection committee will reveal their 2023 Class at NFL Honors during the week leading up to Super Bowl LVII in Arizona. The class will then be enshrined over the summer in Canton, Ohio. There is no set number for any class of enshrinees, but the Committee's current ground rules do stipulate that between 4-8 new members will be selected each year. Every candidate must receive at least 80 percent approval of the Selection Committee at the annual meeting before he can be elected.

Utopia has always been half the equation, however, the balance being the extermination of indigenous people, who already inhabited the land, and denial of entry for all manner of people from blacks and women to immigrants and the poor.
This dichotomy is evident in Hawaii where competing visions of paradise blend with dystopian realities. Now, Hawaii would soften even a cynic's heart. I've been visiting Kauai, the "Garden Island," for 20 years and remain intoxicated by the undulating emerald mountains of the Na Pali Coast, the warm, aquamarine waters of Hanalei Bay and the "Aloha spirit" of its people.
The natural splendor of Hawaii draws about seven million tourists a year as well as thousands of transplants, many wealthy, who relocate to the Pacific island chain for the relentlessly balmy weather. At the same time, the tropical Shangri-La barely conceals teeming tent cities, droves of poverty-wage workers and the legacy of the conquest of native Hawaiians.

Expresso Bongo is a 1959 British drama musical film directed by Val Guest, shot in uncredited black & white Dyaliscope and starring Laurence Harvey, Cliff Richard, and Yolande Donlan. It is adapted from the stage musical of the same name, which was first produced on the stage at the Saville Theatre, London, on 23 April 1958.

In the film, Cliff Richard and the Shadows made their second screen appearance in a film released during 1959, the first being the much darker Serious Charge. The later film was made at Shepperton Studios, near London, with certain scenes shot on location in London's Soho district.

Plot
Laurence Harvey plays sleazy hustler Johnny Jackson, who is always on the lookout for fresh talent to exploit, while managing his hectic life with his stripper girlfriend, Maisie King (Sylvia Syms). Maisie is looking to find a better life in singing.

Jackson discovers a teenage singer named Bert Rudge, played by Cliff Richard, in an espresso coffee shop and sets about sending him along the rocky road to fame. He changes his name to Bongo Herbert and soon gets him a record deal and a relationship with an ageing American singing sensation Dixie (Yolande Donlan).

Johnny gets a meeting with Mr Mayer of Garrick Records and gets Maisie to phone him there pretending to be HMV records, this prompts Mr Mayer into giving Bongo a contract.

However, Bongo soon realises that his 50/50 contract, which he naively agreed with Johnny, is not as great as he thought it was, and breaks from Johnny's contract with help from international star Dixie Collins (because Bongo is still legally a minor).

Production
Director Val Guest engaged Kenneth MacMillan to choreograph the strip-club dancers who appear in the film. Struggling at Shepperton Studios to get them to dance and sing to playback at the same time, MacMillan complained, "It's the simplest routine. They may have looks, legs and tits, but they have no co-ordination."

At first, Laurence Harvey was undecided on the kind of accent he would give his character, so Guest told him he was 'part Soho, part Jewish, and part middle-class' and that it might be an idea to model him on the writer Wolf Mankowitz. Harvey arranged a couple of lunches with the unsuspecting Mankowitz to study the writer at close hand, so the character Johnny Jackson in the film sounds something like the writer of the film. Harvey's character sports a melange of accents including his own South African. Wolf Mankowitz appears in the film's opening credit sequence, wearing a sandwich-board bearing his writer credit.

Cast
 Laurence Harvey as Johnny Jackson
 Sylvia Syms as Maisie King
 Yolande Donlan as Dixie Collins
 Cliff Richard as Bert Rudge/Bongo Herbert
 Meier Tzelniker as Mayer
 Ambrosine Phillpotts as Lady Rosemary
 Eric Pohlmann as Leon (as Eric Pohlman)
 Gilbert Harding as himself
 Hermione Baddeley as Penelope
 Reginald Beckwith as Reverend Tobias Craven

Soundtrack album
The music for the 1959 film was produced by Norrie Paramor. With the exception of one song, it was entirely different from the music that was used in the 1958 musical. The music and the plot were rewritten to downplay the satire and showcase Richard and his band. In the best ironic traditions of Tin Pan Alley, a satire became a tribute. Only The Shrine on the Second Floor — a song that was intended to drive a sharpened stake into the heart of all sentimental ballads about mother – made it into the movie, but Richard sang it straight.

Soundtrack EP

Reception

According to Val Guest the film made "a lot of money and got us a lot of awards". Kine Weekly called it a "money maker" at the British box office in 1960.

In a review for Radio Times, David Parkinson said that as well as being a fascinating snapshot of the era the film was also "one of the best musicals ever produced in this country." Laurence Harvey was "perfectly cast" as the talent agent and the script by Wolf Mankowitz was said to give the film an authentic quality. It was given a 4/5 rating.

Filmink magazine called it "a most likeable film (if you can handle Harvey's accent)."

Trump Fails To Reach Beyond Base, As Independents' Disapproval Grows article from NPR. –
http://www.npr.org/2017/06/28/534602973/trump-fails-to-reach-beyond-base-as-independents-disapproval-grows
More evidence Trump has no mandate as his popularity continues to plummet:
"President Trump's support has eroded with independent voters since he took office. Though he still clings to a loyal base of supporters, his overall disapproval among Americans has reached record highs, according to a new NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll.
Just 37 percent of Americans approve of the job Trump is doing just over five months into his tenure, while 51 percent disapprove. Forty percent of those polled strongly disapprove of Trump's performance, twice the 20 percent who strongly approved.
The most pronounced swing the poll found was among independents. Over the past four months, their approval of the president has dissipated. In February, 40 percent of independents said they approved of the job Trump was doing, with 51 percent disapproving. Four months later in June, just 31 percent say they approve of the president with 59 percent of independents disapproving — a 17 point net-negative drop.
Despite almost full employment nationwide, independents are particularly dissatisfied with Trump on the economy. That's likely driving much of their overall disapproval. Just 31 percent of independents say they have confidence in Trump's ability to improve the U.S. economy, while 49 percent doubt he can do so. Just three months ago, 44 percent thought Trump could turn around the economy, while 38 percent didn't — a whiplash-worthy 24-point swing…"

Senate GOP seethes at Trump impulsiveness article from Politico. –
http://www.politico.com/story/2017/06/27/trump-senate-majority-2018-240028
Trump's ignorance and diminished cognitive deficits are going to cost the GOP their majority:
"Top GOP officials and senators say White House chaos and impulsiveness are crippling efforts to expand the Republican Senate majority in 2018, unraveling long-laid plans and needlessly jeopardizing incumbents.
There's a widespread sense of exasperation with the president, interviews with nearly two dozen senior Republicans reveal, and deep frustration with an administration they believe doesn't fully grasp what it will take to preserve the narrow majority or add to it.
The most recent flash point involves Nevada Sen. Dean Heller, who was attacked by a White House-sanctioned outside group after announcing his opposition to the now stalled Obamacare repeal bill. Heller, the most endangered GOP incumbent up for reelection in 2018, was initially targeted with a surprise $1 million digital, TV and radio assault — an act of political retaliation that stunned senators and other top GOP officials.
The TV and radio commercials, produced by America First Policies — which is staffed by a number of Trump's top campaign aides — accused Heller of refusing to keep his "promise" to dismantle Obamacare…"

Is Trump Blundering Into the Next Middle East War? article from Counter Punch. –
https://www.counterpunch.org/2017/06/28/is-trump-blundering-into-the-next-middle-east-war/
Trump's incorrigible incompetence is causing major problems:
"The Washington elite is waking up to the increasingly real possibility that the Trump administration may be moving the country into yet another Middle East war. And much more quickly than anyone had anticipated. And through sheer incompetence and incoherence rather than by design.
At the moment, attention is focused on the situation in eastern Syrian, the details of which are spelled out well in a growing number of accounts such as Mohamad Bazzi's piece in the Atlantic as well as a recent action alert by the National Iranian American Council. In addition, the New Republic's Jeet Heer posted an excellent piece that quotes former key Obama policymakers (Colin Kahl and Ilan Goldenberg), as well as Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT), who have been well ahead of other national-security analysts in warning about the gathering storm clouds.
Eastern Syria is indeed the focus of the moment, particularly since a U.S. fighter jet shot down a Syrian warplane in Syrian territory and Iran launched a mid-range missile attack on an Islamic State (ISIS or IS) target. Russia subsequently warned that it will target U.S.-led coalition aircraft flying in Syrian territory west of the Euphrates. Then, on June 20, an Iranian-made drone was shot down close to the border with Iraq and Jordan where the various rival proxy forces are all converging to fill the vacuum in anticipation of the IS collapse.
No doubt the Pentagon is gaming out the various scenarios in which a wider war could soon break out, but it certainly sees Iran and its allies in the area as the main post-ISIS threat to Washington's interests in and around Syria. See, for example, this little memo published recently by a senior policy adviser to the U.S. Central Command and, remarkably, a visiting fellow at the staunchly pro-Israel Washington Institute for Near East Policy (hat tip to Barbara Slavin). Or this helpful new contribution by WINEP's long-time counselor and "Israel's lawyer," Dennis Ross…"

THE ENTIRE TRUMP AGENDA IS AT A TIPPING POINT article from The New Yorker. –
http://www.newyorker.com/news/ryan-lizza/the-entire-trump-agenda-is-at-a-tipping-point
Keeping the pressure up: Stalling Trump's fraudulent healthcare tax giveaway in the U.S. Senate is a big deal:
"Earlier this month, a senior White House official deeply involved in enacting President Trump's agenda on Capitol Hill laid out the Administration's ideal legislative schedule for the rest of this year.
"Between now and the August recess, we'd like them to get health care done, we'd like them to get the debt ceiling done, we'd like them to start tackling the budget," he told me. "So when they get back from the August recess, first or second week of September, we can throw a tax proposal down and, literally, we can do taxes for September, October, and November."
The G.O.P. has adopted a major—even radical—agenda: transforming a massive sector of the economy, slashing taxes and rewriting the entire tax code, passing a budget that would dramatically reduce the size of government, and, in the middle of all of that, raising the debt limit. They have a plan to accomplish almost all of it before the end of the year, with minimal transparency, and without relying on a single Democratic vote. But if health-care reform goes down this summer, the rest of the plan may sink with it.
For obscure parliamentary reasons, Republicans can't move on with the rest of their wish list until they pass the health-care bill. And those prospects are not looking good. On Tuesday, Mike Lee, of Utah, became the fifth Republican senator to say that he would vote against even bringing the health-care bill up for debate. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, who announced, also on Tuesday, that he will delay the vote until after the July 4th recess, may yet broker a deal on health care, but if he fails to do so the legislative impact for Trump could be calamitous…"

Norrvikens villastad är ett småhusområde ("trädgårdsstad") i Norrviken i Sollentuna kommun i norra Storstockholm. Ansvarig för tillkomsten av området var AB Norrvikens Villastad, ett företag aktivt från 1906 till 1965. De var även delaktiga i bygget av Norrvikens station.

Historia
Viby, Sollentuna och Kista by var underställda säteriet Sollentunaholm och köptes av CF Lundström på Antuna gård, som 1905 upplät dessa till AB Norrvikens Villastad och AB Rotebro Egnahem. Hans dotters barn, familjerna Hasselrot och Liljenroth tog över företagen 1906. Bolaget lät på egen bekostnad uppföra första stationsbyggnaden och upplät marken närmast järnvägen till statens järnvägar. Stationen öppnades 1 maj 1907 och utvidgades efterhand. Genom att Norrviken fick en egen station kunde försäljningen ta fart på allvar. Bolagets ursprungliga ägare bosatte sig aldrig i området.

Kring 1910 var omkring 150 villor färdiga eller under uppförande. De flesta villor byggdes väster om järnvägen, där marken var något billigare. Endast ett drygt trettiotal av de ursprungliga villorna byggdes öster om järnvägen, flertalet av dessa villor har sjönära lägen och stora tomter. Ett av de mest attraktiva områden var Brunkebergsåsens östra sida som bjuder på vidsträckt utsikt över sjön Norrviken. Flertalet strandnära villor ligger ovanför den strandpromenad som löper utmed större delen av Norrvikens utsträckning. Villorna utmed vattnet är oftast stora och påkostade och byggdes ofta i nationalromantiskt inspirerad jugendstil. Bland dem märks arkitekt Sigurd Westholms egen villa vid Brunkebergsåsen 20 B. Troligen ritade Westholm (stadsarkitekt i Stockholm 1916-1940) flera villor i området.  Ett antal tomter i den norra delen hade även egen strand, bland annat arkitekten John Baggers villa på Brunkebergsåsen 46 (Ritad av Bagger/Westholm).

Direktör Olof Schaffer arbetade som tomtförsäljare i bolaget från 1908. 1919 köpte han ut bolagets grundare och drev det vidare som största ägare i ytterligare 25 år. Schaffer har fått en väg i Viby uppkallad efter sig. Direktör Schaffer byggde en villa till sig själv på Nåsvägen 18. Norrvikens Villastad ordnade med strandpromenad, kallbadhus, vatten och avlopp. Kallbadhuset byggdes 1908 och hade plats för 40-50 badande. Kvinnor och barn fick bada på förmiddagarna och männen på eftermiddagarna. Alla vägar var från 1909 försedda med trätrottoarer och upplysta med  luxlampor.  Norrviken var den andra förstaden som från början erbjöd vatten och avlopp. Norrvikens vatten fungerade även som vattentäkt för Djursholms vattentorn ända in på 1960-talet. Vattentornet på brunkebergsåsen var i bruk till mitten av 60-talet och området fick kommunalt avlopp först på 1980-talet. 1916 öppnades ett elektricitetsverk i Tureberg och hösten 1917 byttes luxlamporna mot elektriska lampor.

Villabolaget erbjöd material för byggnation och då stora delar av området ligger på en grusås fanns mycket grundläggningsmaterial naturligt. Flera av husen tros ha ritats av arkitekterna John Bagger och Sigurd Westholm, som båda bodde i området och tillsammans drev en arkitektfirma. Flera byggmästare bosatte sig även i området och kunde på det sättet erbjuda sina tjänster till andra nybyggare. En del villor byggdes på spekulation.

Målgruppen var medelklass och övre medelklass. Området hade stor konkurrens med till exempel Djursholm och Saltsjöbaden och trots höga ambitioner så lyckades man inte locka lika köpstarka boende som dessa områden. Många av Norrvikens innevånare var tjänstemän, köpmän, ingenjörer och byggmästare.

Innan området hade vägnamn så hade de flesta hus egna namn, exempelvis Lillebo (Tunvägen 27), Sunnanlid (Brunkebergsåsen 10), Tallbo (Stationsvägen 1), Ernevi (Brunkebergsåsen 39), Gammeltorp (Idrottsvägen 31), Widkulla, Sjökulla, Granliden, Gunbo, Vårgård, Björkhäll och Avesro.

År 1927 upprättades en stadsplan av arkitekt Cyrillus Johansson. Planen vann laga kraft två år senare. Den 13 december 1929 inrättades Norrvikens municipalsamhälle inom Sollentuna landskommun, vilken upplöstes när hela kommunen ombildades till Sollentuna köping år 1944. Municipalsamhällets administration övergick i köpingens, som också övertog lokalerna. Senare överfördes kommunalkontoret till nya lokaler i Tureberg. 1925–1927 uppfördes Sollentuna kommunalhus, som även en tid inrymde polisstation. I Norrvikens södra delar byggdes ett antal egnahemsvillor framförallt under 1930- och 1940-talet. Under 1960- och 1970-talen byggdes ett par större radhusområden ut i sydvästra och norra delen av samhället. Många äldre villor har byggts med stora trädgårdar, som i många fall senare styckats och bebyggts främst under 1960–1980-talet.

1955 ersattes den ursprungliga stationsbyggnaden och 1993 revs även detta nyare stationshus, i samband med utvidgning till 4 spårig järnväg. Dagens stationshus kom till 1995.

I början av 1980-talet revs tre sekelskiftesvillor för att skapa det som idag är Norrvikens centrum. Bland annat revs konstnären Bo Notinis villa trots protester. Den så kallade Lithnerska villan ligger idag ensam kvar bland den nyare bebyggelsen då dess ägare lyckades få villan Q-märkt och därmed kunde undgå rivning. Detaljplanen har därefter inte medgett att riva villor och bebygga befintliga tomter med radhusbebyggelse. De senaste åren har mycket få nya villor byggts.

Byggnader

Villor väster om järnvägen
Den västra sidan av Norrviken ligger liksom den östra sidan på en grusås, där järnvägen som går på den gamla sjöbotten mellan åsarna och delar Norrviken i två delar. Parallellt med järnvägen går Norrvikenleden, som med en något annan sträckning ersatte den gamla landsvägen mellan Stockholm och Uppsala. Området är större än den östra sidan och trots att tomterna var billigare än den östra sidan så finns här ett stort antal stora och påkostade villor. Längst till väster skär idag E4 genom Norrviken och på andra sidan av motorvägen börjar Viby och Järvafältet. Även Viby exploaterades av Norrvikens Villastad AB, men då främst till gårdar, då området kallades Viby Lanthem. Även i Viby finns ett antal äldre villor, men andelen nyare villor är betydligt högre här.

Lithnerska Villan
Lithnerska villan (tidigare Tidlunds villa) byggdes 1909–1910 och ritades av den första ägaren, fru Anna Johansson "Chic". Hon lät även uppföra "Franska villan" i Tors backe 1914. Villan är uppförd i jugendstil med barocka och österländska inslag. Villan är, till skillnad från de flesta andra byggnader, murad i tegel. Mot sydöst finns en liten loggia, mot sydöst ett torn med en krönande flaggstång. Långsidorna har varsin frontespis, varav den östra har tre stora fönster samt en fransk balkong ovanför ett mindre burspråk. Fasaderna är slätputsade vita och taket täcks av ett svart plåttak. Ovan huvudentrén sitter en inmurad stuckrelief och en besökare möts av en dubbel ytterdörr med fasettslipade glas, eller vid köksingången en hantverksmässigt utformad välvd port. Huset rymmer flera ursprungliga kakelugnar, målade välvda väggpaneler i trä och en kalkstenstrappa i det nordvästliga hörnet. Under 2:a världskriget fanns kristidsnämnden inrymd i villan.

Filekomheja
Villan beboddes av konstnären Bo Notini och hans fru. Villan revs under vissa protester i samband med omdaningen av Norrvikens centrum på 1980-talet. Villan låg strax sydost om Lithnerska villan.

Villa Avesro
Villa Avesro ligger i korsningen Leksandsvägen - Kistavägen och har fortfarande kvar sitt ursprungliga utseende.

Villor öster om järnvägen (sjösidan)

Den östra sidan av Norrviken hade från början de mest exklusiva tomterna. Tomterna kostade från 20 öre kvadratfot, upp till 40 öre för de få tomterna med egen strandrätt. Husen byggdes framförallt på Brunkebergsåsens krön och sluttningar. Husen som vetter mot vattnet ligger oftast uppe på åsen och har stora sluttningstomter ned mot vattnet men avslutas med den strandpromenad som löper från Stationsvägens östra ände och söderut till strandpartiet strax norr om Väderholmens gård. I söder avslutas strandpromenaden vid Norrvikens IP där den även övergår till Idrottsvägen. Vissa av husen norr om Stationsvägen med adress Strandpromenaden eller Brunkebergsåsen har i några fall egna sjötomter. Området avslutas i norr med Torparängens badplats som tidigare var sjöbotten. Vid Torparängen övergår Brunkebergsåsen till Idrottsvägen.

Villa Gunbo
Villa Gunbo sägs vara en av områdets tidigaste villor. Villan ligger den östra delens norra ände där vägen Brunkebergsåsen tar slut och övergår i Idrottsvägen. Villan är idag tilläggsisolerad, men har i stort kvar sin ursprungliga form. Norr om villan ligger badplatsen Torparängen följd av Sollentunaholms engelska park.

Villa Westholm
Villan på Brunkebergsåsen 20 B, byggd 1907, är ritad för eget bruk av Sigurd Westholm som var stadsarkitekt i Stockholm 1916–1940. Fram till 1915 drev han arkitektkontor tillsammans med John Bagger, och sägs ha ritat ett flertal av villorna i Norrviken. Villan har en naturstensgrund, brun panel på förvandring, fri engelsk planlösning och ett flertal balkonger och burspråk.

Villa Sjökulla

Villa Sjökulla (Brunkebergsåsen 46) är en av få villor med egen strandtomt i Norrviken. Villan byggdes av och åt arkitekten John Bagger 1913 och är ritad av Bagger / Westholm och har 9 rum på ca 230 m² plus inredd vind och källare. Samtliga villor med strandtomt ligger i den norra delen på Brunkebergsåsens östsluttning ned mot vattnet.

Kontorsvillan
I korsningen Idrottsvägen - Stationsvägen (Stationsvägen 34 B) ligger en villa som från början byggdes av Norrvikens Villastad AB 1908 för att sedermera fungera som kontor till företaget. Man uppförde en likadan villa på Solvägen 10. Villan har kallats Kontorsvillan och är troligen ritad av Bagger / Westholm. Villan har en systervilla, Lotterivillan, på Solvägen 10. Båda villorna är idag tillbyggda men framförallt Kontorsvillan har fått behålla sina karaktärsdrag. Villorna påminner om den så kallade Enskedestugan. Heter egentligen Ardala, men kallades mest kontorsvillan.

Villa Rödegård

Villa Rödegård ligger på Brunkebergsåsen 41. Den uppfördes 1911–1912, och har till största delen kvar sitt ursprungliga utseende. Arkitekturen är nationalromantisk med vissa jugendinslag. Övervåningens lockpanel har halvcirkelformade avslutningar, på samma sätt som dåvarande stationsbyggnaden.
1926 till 1942 bodde här polismannen Adolf Johansson, som även ingick i Norrvikens Municipalsamhälles hälsovårdsnämnd.

Villa Gammeltorp
Villan ligger på Idrottsvägen 31 och benämndes ursprungligen för Villa Gammalstorp. Huset byggdes för Axel Wedelin, som innehade tjänsten som bokhållare vid Kungliga Järnvägsstyrelsen. Axel Wedelin tillsammans med hustrun Tekla Charlotta och fyra barn - samt pigan Ellen - flyttade in i huset i september 1911. Villan har till största delen kvar sitt ursprungliga utseende och är byggd i tidsenlig sekelskiftesstil med sadeltak, liggande träpanel och spröjsade fönster. Interiört präglas villan bland annat av snickeridetaljer såsom vackert arbetade tak och väggpaneler på sällskapsvåningen.

Villa Vårgård
Villa Vårgård ligger på Idrottsvägen 33.

Villa Widkulla
Villa Widkulla ligger på Brunkebergsåsen 17. Villan har än idag till stor del kvar sitt ursprungliga utseende. Byggnaden uppfördes för Änkefru Emma Olivia Norrman och hennes tre hemmaboende barn. Inflyttning skedde i oktober 1908 då familjen med tjänstefolk flyttade ut till Norrviken från Johannes församling i Stockholm. Familjen Norrman blev dock inte långvariga som Norrvikenbor. Efter ett par år köpte istället Johan Adolf Vidberg Villa Widkulla och flyttade in tillsammans med sin gamla mor och sin syster. Det är familjen Vidberg som givit huset sitt namn. Modern dog i mitten av 1910-talet och Johan Adolf själv avled 1921. Kvar i Villa Widkulla fanns nu systern Hedvig Gerda Elisabet Vidberg samt en hushållerska vid namn Helena Karolina Nordqvist, som kommit till familjen Vidberg redan 1915. Fröken Hedvig och hushållerskan Helena kom att bo kvar under flera decennier. Huset uppfattades dock för stort för dessa två och byggdes om till två lägenheter varav den ena hyrdes ut. 1927 flyttade familjen Nilsson in. Far var skåning, hette Sture och arbetade vid SJ och mor var dalkulla och hette Karin. De hade en son och en dotter. Familjen Nilsson köpte så småningom Villa Widkulla och kom att bo i huset i nästan 70 år till år 1996 då fru Karin Nilsson avled 96 år gammal. Därefter har Villa Widkulla återställts till enfamiljsbostad och har i dag nära nog den utformning det hade när den var ny.

Villa Furusäter
Villa Furusäter uppfördes 1911 av kartongfabrikör Elis Ullman. Under byggnadstiden blev Ullman internerad på mentalsjukhus. Villa Furusäter fungerade som pensionat under en period under krigsåren. Furusäter har i stort kvar sin ursprungliga utformning men med en exteriör tilläggsisolering.

Villa Tallbo
Villa Tallbo ligger på stationsvägen 1 och gränsar även till Strandpromenaden.

}Fram till 1932 hade inte gatorna i Norrviken några officiella namn, och inte heller gatunummer. Alla villorna hade i stället ett namn som användes bl.a. för postutdelningen. Villornas namn refereras till i adresskalendrar och även i kyrkböckernas folkbokföring.

Många hade namn efter ägaren, t.ex. Villa Westholm, men flertalet hade egna namn som Sunnanlid och Rödegård. Namnen var ibland delvis tagna efter de som ägde villan, som Gunhildsborg efter den första ägaren J G Löfgrens dotter Gunhild. Flera villor har namn baserade på en dotter till ägaren. Några villor bytte namn, oftast då namnet var tydligt knutet till en tidigare ägare, men även att de bytte till namn efter en ny ägare. Ett exempel är Lithnerska Villan som hette Borgen på 1920-talet. Kistaborg är ett undantag i namngivningen då den villan har namn efter det torp som tidigare låg på samma plats som den nuvarande villan.

A few months ago, New Jersey native Richard Florida, author of "The Rise of the Creative Class," came back home to Newark. He spoke to several community and business leaders about what it would take to ignite Newark's creative class even more. Newark's downtown section is definitely a special place and those who think differently are stuck in 1967.
The arts and entertainment sector in downtown Newark has taken off with tons of activity from television and film studios. Major music acts like The Rolling Stones, Taylor Swift and more are choosing to perform at the Prudential Center instead of the nearby New York City options. Businesses are growing in number, and Panasonic is now building a brand new skyscraper for their headquarters. There is much more going on than can be named in the city, but I want to focus on the reasons entrepreneurs should pay attention.
Business development and partnership opportunities in your backyard. Newark, NJ is home to over fifty Fortune 500 companies. Most of these companies are eager and excited to work with young startups and help out the local entrepreneur eco- system.
Transportation hub and proximity to NYC. Newark is the region's leading transportation hub and just 15 minutes outside of NYC by NJ Transit or the Path Train. One of the many advantages of working in downtown Newark is actually being able to take advantage of the perks of NYC, but not having to deal with the price of being based there.
Cheaper. 22 million square feet of available office space at less than half the average rent in Manhattan. In addition, downtown Newark has the NJIT Enterprise Development Center which houses over 80 tech and life-science companies. There are also several collaborative work space projects underway.
Over 44,000 college students. Rutgers University, Rutgers University Business School, New Jersey Institute of Technology and many more schools are based in downtown Newark. Many students in the area are bit by the entrepreneur bug and looking to create their own startups. This could be a great pool of smart, skilled young people to recruit from as well.
Growing tech scene. New Jersey's largest city has no excuse not to have a tech scene brewing. NJIT's Economic Development Committee and local meet-up groups engage with over 400 greater Newark area entrepreneurs monthly. Lean Startup Machine and many other hackathons are making their way to Newark because of the opportunity that exists. This gives entrepreneurs the ability to be on the ground floor of a new movement.
The mayor is a recent startup founder. Cory Booker founded Waywire this year. Who better to understand the new challenges tech entrepreneurs face than someone like Cory Booker? It's a great asset to have a mayor who understands how important resources and culture is to help grow Newark to its potential.
I didn't list everything that's special about Newark, but my point was to make the city part of the conversation. If this sounds interesting to you, you should really visit the city, and see for yourself. Newark is a true east coast sleeping giant.

What Does New Jersey's Lifting of the Stay-At-Home Order Mean for Office-Based Workers? … Not Much
On June 1, 2020, New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy announced that the state is on track and expected to enter Stage/Phase 2 of the Restart and Recovery Plan on June 15, 2020, which will permit nonessential retail businesses to reopen to the public and permit in-person outdoor dining, so long as required social distancing and other mitigation protocols are followed. Personal care service providers, such as hair salons, nail salons and barber shops are scheduled to reopen on June 22, 2020.
On June 9, 2020, Governor Murphy signed Executive Order No. 153, lifting the stay-at-home order that had been in place since March 21, 2020. Executive Order No. 153 states, among other things, "Paragraph 2 of Executive Order No. 107 (2020), which requires New Jersey residents to remain home or at their place of residence with limited exceptions, is hereby rescinded."
Before non-retail businesses rush to reopen their offices, employers should be aware that Paragraph 10 of Executive Order No. 107, which states: "All businesses or nonprofits in the State, whether closed or open to the public, must accommodate their workforce, wherever practicable, for telework or work-from-home arrangements," remains in effect. Therefore, New Jersey employers should continue to allow telework arrangements for all employees who can perform their jobs remotely.
Governor Murphy's comments during the June 9 daily coronavirus press briefing are noteworthy because they signal that (1) telework should continue during Stage 2 (and perhaps Stage 3) of the Restart and Recovery Plan, and (2) any businesses that have been operating with a minimal number of staff on-site necessary to ensure that critical operations continue during the pandemic must have CDC-compliant protocols in place to ensure a safe and healthy workplace. Read the full transcript of the June 9, 2020, briefing.
New Jersey has released additional requirements for reopening based on the industry for bars and restaurants, retail (essential retail and nonessential retail), manufacturing, warehousing, construction, childcare centers and outdoor recreational businesses. Currently, there is no guidance specific to office-based employees.
In the meantime, New Jersey employers should ensure that they are complying with the following mitigation requirements for all businesses:
Clean and disinfect high-touch areas routinely in accordance with CDC guidelines, particularly in spaces accessible to staff, customers, tenants or other individuals, particularly following a known or potential exposure.
Maintain current cleaning procedures in all other areas of the facility and ensure that the facility has a sufficient number of workers to perform the protocols effectively.
Employees who have symptoms consistent with COVID-19 (such as fever or a cough), have been diagnosed with COVID-19, or are undergoing a quarantine for potential exposure to COVID-19, must not report to work.
Employees must use a face covering and employers are required to provide materials for this purpose.
Under Executive Order 107, permit telework if the job can be performed from home.
Maintain six feet of distance from customers/visitors and co-workers.
Instruct employees to wash their hands with soap and water or alcohol-based sanitizer frequently, and particularly after contact with shared public surfaces.
These requirements are generally aligned with CDC guidelines and OSHA protocols, which provide more detailed instructions and should be incorporated into a return-to-work plan.
In addition, the EEOC and the CDC have issued direct guidance that employers must accommodate "higher risk" employees with continued remote work as an accommodation. The definition of higher risk is very broad and a fair portion of most workforces will likely fall into the definition of higher risk, even if they do not self-identify.
Higher risk includes anyone age 65 and older, and any medical condition that can cause someone to be immunocompromised/at higher risk for severe illness, including, heart disease, asthma, diabetes, obesity, liver disease and immune deficiencies. It also includes smokers and those on corticosteroids (prednisone) or other immune-weakening medications. The CDC also has issued additional guidelines that are intended to help safeguard higher-risk workers who may be coming into the office (even if they do not self-identify). For example, the CDC recommends that employers incentivize employees to avoid public transportation and carpooling and/or instruct anyone who uses public transportation or ride-sharing to immediately wash their hands upon arrival at the work location. All of these requirements should be incorporated into any return-to-work plan.

Daily Stories from the Ice
Mike Commito
A hockey history moment for every day of the year!
A few seconds can make a game, even a season, and behind each play is a piece of history. Mike Commito marks every day of the year with a great moment in hockey and shows how today's game is part of an ongoing story that dates back to its origins on frozen ponds.
From the National hockey League's first games in 1917 to Auston Matthews's electrifying four-goal debut for the Maple Leafs in 2016, Hockey 365 has something for everyone and is sure to give you a better appreciation for the sport we all love.
5.5 x 8.5 in
A must have for anyone who considers themselves a hockey fan. Hockey 365 takes the vast, seemingly overwhelming history of the game and measures it out in an easy to enjoy structure. The biggest challenge is only to read one entry per day. I'm happy to say I failed that particular challenge.
Colin Hanks, actor and director
A veritable cornucopia of hockey history and knowledge.
Bob McKenzie, TSN Hockey Insider
What great fun to have a daily hockey story for inspiration. Mike Commito's Hockey 365 is a delight for fans of the greatest game. From the Stanley to the Clarkson Cup, from Ballard to Rheaume, from Gretzky to Bure – and a whole bunch of stories you never knew but will be glad you now do.
Roy MacGregor, author of Wayne Gretzky's Ghost: And Other Tales from a Lifetime in Hockey
Mike Commito has long been one of my favorite hockey historians. He has a knack for digging up the game's most fascinating moments and making them accessible to new fans and grizzled diehards alike. No matter how much of the sport's history you think you already know, you'll learn a ton from this book
— Sean McIndoe, author of The Down Goes Brown History of the NHL
Mike's daily snapshots of moments in time are the perfect reminder for why we love the game.
— Frank Seravalli, Senior Hockey Reporter for TSN
Mike Commito's Hockey 365 can please and inform both die hard and casual fans. He even provides a twist or two on some of the most obvious dates on the hockey calendar. This book is proof that hockey happens 365 days a year.
Ken Reid, Sportnet Central Anchor and Hockey Author
An interesting read for hockey fans of all ages. For some it will be an education in the history of our great game. For others, it will bring back many terrific memories. Or both.
Scott Morrison, NHL on Sportsnet commentator
Mike Commito is one of hockey's best historians. This collection of the game's best stories is a triumph of his passion and insight — and is sure to enthrall hockey fans from every generation.
Dan Robson, Sportsnet senior writer, author of Quinn and Bower
For all of us who live hockey every single day of the year (guilty), Hockey 365 is perfect. A great mix of history and storytelling that will only fuel your passion for the game
James Duthie, TSN
Having been in hockey my whole life, following the history of the NHL has always been a passion of mine. Hockey 365 is pure gold for anyone who loves the game of hockey. I couldn't put it down. Mike's ability to translate stories and events from all eras of the game makes it a MUST read for any fan.
— Jamie McLennan, former NHL goaltender
Hockey 365 is a treat. I've long been a fan of Mike Commito for his knowledge and passion for hockey (check out his Twitter timeline for proof) so it's no surprise that this book turned out the way it did. Great stories told by a historian who takes pride in getting his facts right. I really enjoyed this book.
— Jeff Marek, NHL/CHL host on Sportsnet and 31 Thoughts'
I am stuck between loving the memory or trying to forget the day I got scored on by my younger brother in an NHL game but Hockey 365 is making sure I will never be able to forget it ever happened! When I first started to read the book I planned on jumping ahead to that faithful day, November 24th, but from the first page I was hooked and quickly I was mesmerized by all these great events that shaped the history of the game.
— Martin Biron, former NHL goaltender and NHL analyst
It is a very entertaining and informative look at great hockey stories and moments that happened throughout the 365 days of the normal calendar year. An easy read! A fun read! An entertaining read! An informative read.
— Gord Stellick, former Toronto Maple Leafs GM and Hockey Analyst on Sportsnet
In Hockey 365, author, historian and unabashed fan Mike Commito has assembled myriad facts, stories and events, a delicious feast that takes fans day by day through a calendar year, sewing it all together with a thread that links the past with the present … You'll enjoy every page of Hockey 365, well beyond the number of days in its title. The beauty of this sport is its wonderful shelf life, something you can say as well for Mike's book, a terrific addition to any hockey library.
— Dave Stubbs, NHL.com Columnist / Historian
Hockey 365 displays the history of the sport in a unique way, reminding us that every single day of the year has some momentous achievement or quirky happening. Like everyone else, I went to my birthday first, and now I know I was born on the day that Ken Dryden faced his brother in goal, making NHL history.
— Greg Wyshynski, Senior NHL Writer, ESPN
Just like a good goal-scorer, it is the gift that keeps on giving… 365 times!

ByEngadget2017-02-09 08:29:39
Intel plans to complete Fab 42, a semiconductor factory in Chandler, Arizona, with an investment of more than $7 billion over the next three to four years. At its peak, the factory will employ about 3,000 process engineers, equipment technicians, and facilities-support engineers and technicians. Fab 42 will produce 7 nanometer chips and is "expected to be the most advanced semiconductor factory in the world" -- whatever that means.
As noted by New York Times technology reporter Farhad Manjoo andothers on Twitter, Intel's investment in Fab 42 wasn't the result of new federal subsidies or credits. However, the company chose to announce the move at the White House, where cameras captured Intel CEO Brian Krzanich offering President Donald Trump a gift and explaining how regulatory US tax policies have "disadvantaged" his business in the past.
Intel isn't alone in using the president as a way to generate media interestin an existing business deal. In December, Trump gave Sprint a signal boost when he congratulated the company on its decision to bring 5,000 jobs to the United States. Despite Trump's attempts to take credit for the deal, it was in fact put together months before he was elected.
Intel also isn't the only tech company making moves in Arizona -- most recently, Uber moved its fleet of custom, self-driving Volvo XC90 SUVs to the state after a tiff with the California Department of Motor Vehicles.
Intel Capital to develop visual sensors for cars, drones, and robots
Chronocam, a maker of advanced vision sensors, announced today it has raised $15 million in venture capital in a round led by Intel Capital.
The announcement came as part of the Intel Capital Global Summit in San Diego. Intel said it had invested $38 million in 12 technologystartups in markets such as virtual and augement reality (VR/AR) and Internet of Things (IoT).
Based in Paris, Chronocam makes visual sensors that operate in a manner similar to the human eye. The company believes a more effective visual processing system that uses less power will be attractive for partners developing self-driving vehicles and have applications for a wide range of Internet of Things devices, as well as drones and robots.
The technology is the result of years of vision research conducted at French universities and has led to breakthroughs in computer vision technologies.
"We decided [the technology] was reaching a level of maturity that it should be taken to market," said Luca Verre, cofounder and CEO of Chronocam.
In essence, the technology works by trying to limit the data gathered. The system seeks to know when images should and should not be captured so that the data that is transmitted can be analyzed more rapidly. That dynamic also requires less power for embedded systems, Verre explained.
"We want to send to the brain only what is relevant, only what is changing," he said. "This makes the visual system very efficient."
The company currently has 20 employees, split between chip design and the computer vision system. Verre said the latest round, which follows a previous investment of $2.8 million, will help the company hire into both development teams.
In addition to Intel, the round for Chronocam includes iBionext, Robert Bosch Venture Capital, GmbH, 360 Capital, CEAi, and Renault Group. The company will use the money to continue developing its technology, while also looking for partners to integrate it into their products.
"The world is becoming increasingly connected and intelligent, and computer vision is a key enabler of this trend — particularly for the automotive industry and Internet of Things," Wendell Brooks, senior vice president at Intel and president of Intel Capital, said in a statement. "Connected machines that can quickly and accurately visualize their environment and act on that data in real time have the potential to help make the roads safer and save lives. And Chronocam's vision solution — inspired by the human eye — is an exciting development. We look forward to helping the company bring the next generation of smartmachine vision systems to market.
Intel unveils platform to simplify connectivity of products
Intel Corp on Tuesday unveiled a new platform to make it easier for companies to create Internet-connected smart products using its chips, security and software.
Intel's platform is like a set of building blocks based on the chipmaker's components and software for companies to create smart, connected devices, Doug Davis, head of Intel's Internet of Things business, said at a launch event in San Francisco.
It also aims to make it easier to connect to data centers in order analyze data collected from devices' sensors.
"We're creating compute capability in end-point devices that scale from our highest performance Xeon processor to the Quark family of products," Davis said, referring to Intel's chips.
After moving slowly in recent years to adapt its personal computer chips for smartphones and tablets, Intel is determined to make sure it is on the leading edge of future computing trends, industry experts and company executives have said.
Adding processors, sensors and web connectivity to devices from soccer balls to industrial machinery, an emerging trend dubbed the Internet of Things, has become a new battleground for Intel, rival Qualcomm and other technology companies.
The install base of wireless gadgets will more than double by the end of the decade, with most of the growth coming from smart devices other than PCs and smartphones, according to market research firm ABI Research.
Intel's Internet of Things Group had $530 million in revenue in the September quarter. That accounted for just 4 percent of Intel's total revenue in the quarter, but it grew 14 percent over the previous year, which was faster than the company's PC business.

Great Public Schools Now
Commentary: Time to end the great charter school debate in Los Angeles and create great public schools now
Guest contributor | June 20, 2016
Great Public Schools Now's executive director, Myrna Castrejon, announces the first grants at a news conference last Thursday.
By Caroline Bermudez
More than once in California, it has taken a major lawsuit to try to propel long-awaited change for its schools. In 1999, the State Allocation Board was sued because of overcrowding in Los Angeles public schools. Last year, a coalition of groups brought a lawsuit accusing the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) of diverting money away from low-income, foster children, and English-language learners.
So it's a welcome development when instead of looking to the court system to improve schools, educational inequities can be addressed through partnerships among schools, nonprofits and philanthropies.
Great Public Schools Now (GPSN), a nonprofit organization in Los Angeles, is awarding grants to successful programs and schools—be they traditional public schools, charter schools or magnet—to replicate or expand their efforts to improve schools for 160,000 students in 10 low-income Los Angeles neighborhoods.
On Thursday GPSN announced its first three grants—$2 million for Teach For America to focus on training more special education teachers for traditional schools, $2 million for Equitas Charter Network to build a school and expand its new K-4 campus, and $500,000 for new space for an after school program run by Heart of Los Angeles (HOLA).
The fact that Great Public Schools Now is open to supporting any type of high-achieving program (and not just charter schools) is a refreshing development in a city whose school board has been hostile to the expansion of charters.
For parents who reside in the low-income neighborhoods GPSN will focus on, they say it's time for the conflict between traditional public schools and charter schools to end.
Mary Najera, community liaison for Extera Public Schools and a veteran parent organizer who lives in the Boyle Heights neighborhood of Los Angeles, said she was excited by the collaborative nature of Great Public Schools Now.
"If charter schools are going to work with traditional public schools, then let's go for it," she said. "I love the idea that they're all sitting at the table together. At the end of the day, it's not your money, it's the kids' money."
Carmen Avalos, city clerk for the South Gate community of Los Angeles and a mother of six children, four of whom attend charter schools, said the Great Public Schools Now plan has been greatly anticipated by parents of color like herself who have endured what she called a "two-tiered system."
"It's long overdue, particularly in homogeneous communities of color," she said. "There should be high-quality access for all students. Zip code should not determine how far you can get."
As a former LAUSD biology teacher, Avalos said the most promising part of the plan was its emphasis on teachers' professional development. She said that it was a misconception that struggling neighborhoods don't have any talented educators.
"We have great teachers, but they don't have the opportunity to shine and share and learn from others," Avalos said. "There are not enough [of these] teachers in one school."
Like so many urban districts, Los Angeles schools suffer a dearth of quality and money. Great Public Schools Now is not putting a cap on how much money it will award or how many organizations will win grants. Not many cities have received such a boon.
"Every kid we help is a win," said Glenn Gritzner, a GPSN spokesman. "As long as more kids need help, we're keeping at it."
That's belated news for parents like Avalos who experienced years of frustration before finding the right schools for her children—and then had to fight for these schools to remain open.
"Once you know what quality is, you never go back to mediocre," she said.
DETAILS ON THE GRANT WINNERS
Teach For America Los Angeles will receive $2 million to train and develop new corps members and alumni. The organization will increase its crop of teachers from 80 to 130 teachers next year. Out of this number, between 45 and 50 members will be placed as special education teachers in traditional public schools and their affiliates."Given the current talent shortage I knew we would need to increase the number of new teachers joining our Los Angeles corps…This support will allow Teach For America to have a greater presence and impact across the highest-need public schools – with a focus on traditional LAUSD schools – in Los Angeles," Lida Jennings, executive director of Teacher For America Los Angeles, said in a statement.
Equitas, founded in 2009 in the Pico-Union neighborhood, got $2 million for a new building for Equitas Academy #3. Malka Borrego, Equitas' founder and chief executive, says her network has a waitlist of more than 1,000 families. Through the funding, Equitas Academy 3 will be able to expand from 100 kindergarten students to 500 in grades K to 8."Our families want access to schools. We're trying to unite Los Angeles and develop strong schools," said Borrego, a third-generation resident of the neighborhood.
Heart of Los Angeles (HOLA), a nonprofit organization in the Rampart district that operates after-school academic and arts programs for over 2,300 children, won $500,000 to help construct a new 25,000 square foot building. Tony Brown, the charity's executive director, said its current building is overcrowded and HOLA has a waitlist of more than 300 families.With the grant money, Brown said, HOLA will be able to eliminate the list by 2020. The new building will open next year and give HOLA the ability to accommodate families eager to place their children into its programs."Ninety-seven percent of the families we serve live in poverty," Brown said. "They are craving the types of programs and services we provide. This is a huge victory for families who have been in a sub-par system."
