Plans for over 1500 homes off Robey's Lane revealed
/ North Warwickshire/ PropertyHeadline
PLANS have been submitted to North Warwickshire Borough Council for 1,540 homes, a 100-bed Care Home, a Primary School and a Community Hub on the land between Robey's Lane and the Former Golf Course site.
The outline planning application also shows the provision of green infrastructure comprising of playing fields and a sports pavilion, formal and informal open space, children's play areas, woodland planting and habitat creation, allotments, walking and cycling routes, sustainable drainage infrastructure, vehicular access and landscaping.
The housing development will sit immediately to the East of the Golf Course development where the construction of 1,100 homes is already underway.
The plans show that a roundabout will be added to the B5000 at the junction with Chiltern Road, to allow access to the site.
READ MORE: Application for 1,100 homes on former golf course site approved
Stephen Briggs who owns and manages the private Alvecote Wood which site directly next to the planned site has spoken out against the development on their Facebook Page, saying: "We've had numerous incidents of trespass recently including more damage to our fencing, and over the years we've had multiple thefts, poaching, verbal abuse, metal detectorists leaving holes in our paths, etc. If there are to be another 1,540 houses to be built immediately around the woods, it isn't likely to get any better."
Alvecote Wood is a 20 acre woodland site off Robey's Lane with ancient woodland, newly-planted woodland, ponds and wildflower meadows managed for wildlife. They are open by appointment or on specific open days, which are the last Sunday in the month from March to November.
Members of the public now have until 10 February to comment on the planning application. This can be done via the North Warwickshire Borough Council website here. Planning application PAP/2018/0755 refers.

Statut warcki – prawo nadane przez Władysława II Jagiełłę w 28 października 1423 roku na sejmie walnym w Warcie .

Statut warcki był kolejnym prawem wpływającym na ówczesną gospodarkę i nadawał prawną podstawę do przejmowania gospodarstw sołtysich i większych kmiecych na zasadzie wykupu po cenie oszacowanej przez szlachcica (feudała), nierzadko w wyniku rugi całkowitej lub częściowej. Był odbiciem nastrojów panujących już za czasów Kazimierza III Wielkiego, kiedy to szlachta pałała niechęcią do bogatych, wolnych dotąd sołtysów i chłopów. Przepis pozwalał na likwidowanie sołectw przez szlachtę na włościach nadanych im przez władców Polski stanowiących władzę centralną. Grunty tak pozyskane włączano do dużych gospodarstw folwarcznych. Funkcjonowanie folwarków szlacheckich oparte było na przymusowej, odrobkowej sile roboczej - tzw. pańszczyźnie dlatego ich wydajność gospodarcza była niższa niż sołectw, pomimo tego folwarki przynosiły duże dochody szlachcie. Statut warcki jednocześnie ograniczał prawo chłopów do opuszczania wsi, co miało zapobiec ich migracji. Zakaz ten nie powstrzymał jednak dużej części zbuntowanych sołtysów i chłopów przed zbieganiem na wschód, gdzie często zasilali szeregi społeczności kozackich.

Statut nakładał na wojewodów obowiązek kontroli miar i wag w miastach oraz ustalanie cen artykułów rzemieślniczych.

Statut warcki był stosowany do XVI wieku a jego przepis dotyczący ustalania cen był powielany w innych statutach – nieszawskim z 1454 roku i piotrkowskim z 1496 roku. Przepisy te obowiązywały do pierwszych rozbiorów.

Inne prawa i konsekwencje wynikające ze statutu:

 prawo rugowania krnąbrnych sołtysów
 ograniczał w dalszym stopniu władzę sądową starostów (mieli oni sądzić tylko zbrodnie obejmujące gwałt, rozbój, podpalenie i najście na dom);
 nadawał większe kompetencje wojewodom w ustalaniu miar i cen w miastach wyrobów rzemieślniczych (tzw. taksy wojewodzińskie), co było ograniczeniem samorządności miejskiej;
 ograniczenie prawa chłopów do opuszczania wsi;
 zezwolenie na tworzenie dogodnych podstaw prawnych dla folwarków szlacheckich;
 ograniczał rozwój miast;
 wysokie kary za ukrywanie chłopów zbiegłych z majątków szlacheckich.

The 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) chart an ambitious agenda for a more peaceful and prosperous world. But these goals carry a high price tag; it is estimated that an additional $2.5 trillion is required annually to turn this agenda into action.
Impact investing presents a potential funding pathway to help fill this serious financing gap. Impact investors leverage private capital to support companies and organizations that can generate social and environmental returns, alongside financial gains. These gains can even be re-invested into further global development efforts.
Investing in education, particularly for girls, has a significant multiplier effect on individuals, families, and entire countries. The Global Partnership for Education states that every additional year of schooling can increase an individual's income by 10% and can raise average annual gross domestic product (GDP) growth by 0.37%.
Education also generates important returns in health, resiliency, and security. For example, if all mothers completed primary education, maternal deaths would be reduced by two-thirds. Universalizing upper secondary education by 2030 would prevent 200,000 disaster-related deaths in the 20 years that follow. And if the enrollment rate for secondary schooling is 10 percentage points higher than the average, the risk of war is reduced by about 3 percentage points.
Education is also a growing business. This is particularly true in sub-Saharan Africa where there is a funding shortfall of $39 billion per year to meet the education needs of its bulging youth population. From private education providers, to teacher training programs, to education technologies – businesses are filling this massive need and will likely continue to play an important role in the education sector going forward.
WUSC recently funded an assessment of opportunities for impact investing in the education sector in East Africa. Although financing for the education sector is relatively vibrant in Kenya, the same cannot be said for other countries in the region. Moreover, current financing is concentrated in a few specific business models, which greatly reduces the potential benefits of innovative solutions to tackle education quantity, quality, and inclusiveness.
Impact investors' limited budgets and gaps in rural infrastructure constrain sourcing investment deals to small geographical locations often in urban settings.
The tendency to engage in pattern recognition among impact investors (i.e. investing in individuals or structures which are familiar) makes it difficult for investors to understand and analyze new and innovative business models.
There is a lack of capacity to measure the risks and quality of education provision. This increases overall investment risk and pushes investors to seek more guarantees, such as closer collaboration with the public sector, placing additional demands on investees.
Many young companies in the sector find investment amounts too large to manage and do not include the capacity-building supports they need. At the same time, the investment instruments on offer are limited and do not always match East African market realities.
Catalyzing investment by offering alternative funding instruments.
Facilitating private-public-partnerships by integrating start-ups and smaller companies within larger donor projects.
Cultivating the start-up community by providing peer learning opportunities.

Paul Bates won two races at the Kingston Area Secondary Schools Athletic Association track and field championships, but perhaps the one he enjoyed the most last week was the one he didn't win.
"I like the long distance," he said, "but the (800 metres) was really fun.
Such words are music to the ears of coach Brad Hill.
"Paul has always been a good, competitive runner," said Hill. "Now he's starting to smile more.
Bates, of Regiopolis Notre Dame, will be among the Kingston Area athletes at the two-day Eastern Ontario Secondary Schools Athletic Association championships, beginning Thursday at Thousand Islands Secondary School in Brockville.
That's not to say he finds the 3,000 metres particularly easy.
Hill said Bates has benefitted from training with older runners, people in his training group like Regi's Paul Saigriff and Jonathan Besselink of Holy Cross. "The biggest thing," Hill said, "is he's just got to believe in himself, and he's starting to do that.
Bates, who has overcome some illness to race this spring, posted times last week—4:29.3 in the 1,500 metres; 10:20.1 in the 3,000 metres—that, while good, were not spectacular. Don't worry about it, Hill said. At this point in the season, the times are not important.
"Some of these kids time themselves in the middle of race," Hill said, scoffing at the practice. "All I want them to do is compete. You've got to get to the next stage.
Being a volleyball player at a school where that's a big deal doesn't necessarily mesh with excelling on the track, Hill said. With the potential Bates exhibits as a runner, he may soon face a difficult decision.
"Sometimes when you get to Grade 10 or 11, in track and field, the kids you're competing against are running 12 months of the year," Hill said. "Paul's got so much talent, somewhere along the line he might have to make a choice.

Cheap Asus ME172V tablet running Jelly Bean gets caught on GL Benchmarks?
Back in October a rumor coming from Asia hinted to a low-budget Nexus tablet manufactured by Asus for under $100. At that time Asus immediately denied the rumor, however a month and a half later a Asus tablet using ME172V model number got caught on GL Benckmark website unveiling the same Mali-400 MP GPU, and a slighlty better SoC clocked at 1GHz instead of 800Mhz processor, rumored a couple of months back.
The ME172V tablet runs on Android latest version Jelly Bean firmware build JRO03H, it has a 7 inch screen with a 1024 x 600 pixels resolution and more importantly likely to have a micro SD card slot which earlier Nexus tablets dont have.
Some say it might no be a Nexus-branded device, but a cheap Asus tablet with which the Taiwan-based OEM is trying to cut-off iPad Mini sales.

Barry just posted about a wonderful day he spent sketching and observing Field Sparrows at the Rocky Hill Wildlife Sanctuary in Groton, Massachusetts. Here is some background about their biology and natural history. Field sparrows are part of the New World Sparrows, in the order Passeriformes and in the family Emberizidae, which consists of about 320 species in 72 genera.
Field sparrows typically eat both seeds and insects, relying on seeds in the winter and both insects and seeds in the Spring, Summer, and Fall.
Field sparrows return in April from their over wintering habitat in Southern United States and Northern Mexico. Check out their range map. Males are territorial and will set territories at farmlands, old fields, and other open habitats.
Field sparrows typically lay eggs once or twice in a season, but may lay a third if their first brood fails. Nests will have anywhere between 1 and 6 eggs.
Field sparrow nests are usually made out of grass and twigs, either on the ground or just above the ground and have been found in Goldenrod, Multiflora Rose, and in other shrubs. Early season nests are typically on the ground or close to the ground, while later season nests will be higher in shrubs and trees to better avoid ground predators.
Field sparrows nest in habitat that is associated with old fields, farmlands, and prairies. Because of their close association with farmlands, the field sparrow population in Massachusetts is experiencing declines due to the decline in farmlands and old field habitat coupled with an increase in housing development in the suburbs. Decline in grassland birds has been well documented by Mass Audubon's breeding bird atlas.

Q: If condition associated with applying a column filter I'm trying to use an if-condition regarding filters. I wish I could write a code to check if a specific filter is applied and then do something... (of course)
My first attempt was:
If ActiveSheet.Range("$D$4:$Q$20").AutoFilter Field:=2 then
   Rows("22:22").Select
   Selection.EntireRow.Hidden = True
End If

In the very first line, VBA doesn't accept the condition that is written...
Any guess?
tks

A: This will tell you if a range is in a filter and the filter is active:
Public Function IsFilterOn(rng As Range) As Boolean
    Dim ws As Worksheet
    Dim iFilterNum As Integer

    Set ws = rng.Parent

    If Not ws.AutoFilter Is Nothing Then
        If Not Application.Intersect(rng, ws.AutoFilter.Range) Is Nothing Then
            With ws.AutoFilter.Filters
                iFilterNum = rng.Column - .Item(1).Parent.Range.Column + 1

                If iFilterNum <= .Count Then
                    IsFilterOn = .Item(iFilterNum).On
                    Exit Function
                End If
            End With
        End If
    End If
End Function

A: Note that you don't need to select a row before hiding it.
Sub HideWhenFiltered()
    With ActiveSheet
        If .AutoFilterMode Then
            If .AutoFilter.Filters(2).On Then
               .Rows(22).Hidden = True
            End If

From History
Dr. Muthulakshmi Reddi – Her conviction and determination to make a change has touched the lives of many people.
by Supriya Melacheruvu
This is the story of a woman who made it a point not just to question the wrongs of society but also found solutions to fix it. Dr. Muthulakshmi Reddi was born on 30th July 1886 to Devdasi Chandrammal and Narayanaswamy in Pudukuttai, Tamil Nadu. Her father's family cut all ties with them as he married a devdasi. This gave her an opportunity to become close with her maternal side. This closeness made her think a lot about the devdasi community and their issues.
The devadasi system is a practice in which parents marry their daughters to a deity or a temple before she attains puberty. Later, these girls were forced to become dancers and musicians in the temple itself. Early in life, she was clear that she would "correct the balance" and fight for gender equality on moral standards.
She fought against her mother's decision to marry her off at puberty and went on to become the first woman from Pudukkottai to be admitted to the Maharaja's High School – she was given admission by the Maharaja himself, despite severe resistance. The Maharaja's High School was a school solely for boys and many parents threatened to remove their children from the school if she enrolled there.
After she completed her undergraduate studies she went on to get successfully admitted into the Madras Medical College, where she was the first woman to be given admission in the Department of Surgery.
It is here that she met Sarojini Naidu and Annie Besant and their friendship was a huge positive influence on her. She then went on to pursue higher education in England.
She later married Dr. Sundara Reddy on the understanding that he promises to "always respect me as an equal and never cross my wishes". In 1914, when she was twenty-eight years of age, they married in accordance with the 1872 Native Marriage Act.
Muthulakshmi had many firsts to her name. She was the first female student to be admitted into a men's college, the first woman House Surgeon in the Government Maternity and Ophthalmic Hospital, the first woman legislator in British India, the first Chairperson of the State Social Welfare Advisory Board, the first woman Deputy President of the Legislative Council, and the first Alderwoman of the Madras Corporation Avvai Home. Her line of achievements tells us a lot about her personality and her attitude. Her will to make a change was so profound that there was no looking back ever since the first step.
Her contributions to the upliftment of women in society are manifold such as the Adyar Cancer Institute and the Avvai Home. She started the Avvai home for girls who stood up for themselves and ran away from their home when they were forced into the Devdasi System. She started the Adyar Cancer Institute when she lost a cousin to cancer and was so moved by that incident that she decided to do something for cancer victims.
She was awarded the Padma Bhushan in 1956 by the Government of India in recognition of her distinguished service.
Her service and work make her one of India's prominent feminists. Her conviction and determination to make a change has touched the lives of many people and the fruits of her efforts are being reaped by the generations that have followed her. Her values are her legacy and are what make her an inspiration and an epitome of strength, resilience, and support.

Hundreds of Hater fighters have settled on the East Coast in the abandoned remains of a relatively undamaged town under the command of Hinchcliffe-who'll stop at nothing to eradicate the last few Unchanged and consolidate his position at the top of this new world order. This fledgling society is harsh and unforgiving-your place in the ranks is decided by how long and how hard you're prepared to fight.
Danny McCoyne is the exception to the rule. His ability to hold the Hate and to use it to hunt out the remaining Unchanged has given him a unique position in Hinchcliffe's army of fighters. As the enemy's numbers reduce, so the pressure on McCoyne increases, until he finds himself at the very center of a pivotal confrontation, the outcome of which will have repercussions on the future of everyone who is left alive.


Book, music and lyrics by Lionel Bart 'freely adapted' from the novel 'Oliver Twist' by Charles Dickens.
Mon-Sat 7:45 pm, Saturday Matinee 2:30 pm.
Production Director - Jim Snell, Musical Director - Justin Thomas, Choreographer - Mollie Gilbert.
Oliver! is undoubtedly one of the greatest musicals ever written. Bart's interpretation lightens the bleak picture Dickens painted of lower class life in Victorian England by adding cheery music and a good dose of cockney humour.
With a host of well known songs including 'Consider Yourself', 'You've got to pick a pocket or two', 'I'll do anything', 'Oom-Pah-Pah' and 'As long as he needs me'; this musical cannot fail to please a wide audience.
The astounding success of Oliver!
Oliver! opened at the New London Theatre, London on 30 June 1960. With a run of 2618 performances, it held the longest running musical record until overtaken by Jesus Christ Superstar. On Broadway, it opened at the Imperial Theatre on 6 January 1963 and ran for 774 performances. Oliver! remained the longest-running British musical on Broadway until Evita surpassed it some 20 years later. The most recent London revival opened on 8 December 1994 starring Jonathan Pryce as Fagin, Sally Dexter as Nancy and Miles Anderston as Bill Sikes. The show was directed by Sam Mendes and produced by Cameron Mackintosh. Notable also is the 1968 film version which won a total of 6 Oscars including Best Picture.
The Hitchin Thespians are pleased to be able to present this show by arrangement with MusicScope and Stage Musicals Limited of New York to play at the Gordon Craig Theatre, Stevenage from 1 to 6 March 1999. With Jim Snell as the producer, Justin Thomas as Musical Director and Mollie Gilbert in charge of choreography, we intend to continue the long success of this musical.
Oliver! opens in a charity workhouse in Victorian London. The orphan boys, summoned for their daily ration of gruel, fantasise of the food they would like to be given. Only Oliver dares to ask the workhouse manager Mr Bumble, for more with the famous line "Please sir, I want some more". Oliver, excluded from the workhouse on account of his 'unacceptable' greed, is taken by Mr Bumble to be sold. After being hauled through the streets of London, he is finally bought by an undertaker. In the funeral parlour, he is teased by another apprentice about his longing for his mother. Oliver escapes and makes his way to London where he meets The Artful Dodger - always on the lookout for likely lads on behalf of his leader, Fagin.
Oliver meets Fagin who tells him what he has to do to stay, "You've got to pick a pocket or two". Oliver is befriended by Nancy, girlfriend of the thief Bill Sikes. The next morning, Oliver is shown the ropes by The Artful Dodger, but he is caught at his first attempt of stealing and taken away by the police. When Oliver is let off by the judge, Mr Brownlow, who had earlier called him a thief, takes him to his home. Meanwhile, Nancy is entertaining the locals at the Three Cripples Public House. She stops as Sikes enters and learns of Oliver's capture. Concerned that Oliver might tell the police about his unorthodox activities, Sikes orders Nancy to find the boy. Nancy reluctantly does so, out of love of Sikes, but feels guilty about taking Oliver away from what could be a happy home.
One morning, Oliver awakes to see a joyful scene of street vendors selling their wares. Later he goes out on an errand for Mr Brownlow to return some books, but on leaving the house, is taken by Sikes and Nancy and returned to Fagin's den, where he is threatened by Sikes. After the furore dies down, Fagin reflects upon his life as a villain and considers, then rejects, settling down to a normal life. Meanwhile, Mrs Bumble, the workhouse manager's wife, tries to make her fortune by revealing to Mr Brownlow a locket that belonged to Oliver's mother, his daughter, who ran away to bear an illegitimate child. Mr Brownlow is furious that she had it all along and made no attempt to seek Oliver's family.
Nancy, already sorry for her part in capturing Oliver, offers to help Brownlow get Oliver back. In bringing Oliver to a rendezvous with him, she is killed by Sikes for her betrayal. Sikes takes Oliver back to Fagin's den but he is followed by Bow Street Runners who kill Sikes and reunite Oliver with his grandfather.
All ends happily with Oliver returned to his family and Fagin setting off into the sunset.
Oliver is introduced to Fagin, Nancy and the gang of boys. Oliver is introduced to pick pocketing. The locals enjoy a typical night at 'The Three Cripples'. Nancy after an encounter with Bill Sykes, sings 'As long as he needs me'.
Oliver after being adopted, runs an errand. Bill Sykes snatches Oliver back to a life of crime. All the cast on stage for the curtain calls. Backstage crew, the Producer, Musical Director join the cast on stage.

Q: Issues loading a dictionary text file into hash table I'm working on a program that is supposed to take an m x n array of characters, basically a word search, and find all the words in this puzzle (forwards, up, down, backwards, and diagonal) that are in the dictionary.

well. i know those mods help the mixture flow better.
i'd love to give ya a man hug.
Dawg, I hope to make it to a race down that way with MidEast some time. Would love to swing by and catch up if I do.
Bad crash the other weekend at 3 Oaks. Running in 3rd, 2 sec back from 2nd and 10 back from 1st at the start of lap 3 I clipped something in the trail that I obviously didn't see. Easy section too. Bars swapped lock to lock a few times and I plowed a tree 3rd gear pinned. Destroyed a barkbuster, retired another helmet and tested the rest of my gear. Still a little banged up from that one. With speed comes risk. Kind of bummed because I was reeling in the guys in front of me and had the pace I needed to win. That place is cursed for me. I had a bad getoff there last year too.
I left the bike in the trailer for a few days and now in the garage to let it think about what it did Hoping to get some practice in locally this weekend instead of hitting up the gnarly Snowshoe GNCC.


I know with war at hand and plague and starvation happening around the world this issue may seem trivial but it really pisses me off.
NGKOK, Thailand (Reuters) - Bound and dragged from his mother into a crude wooden enclosure, 3-year-old Plai Boonsom screams as he is beaten on head and body with metal hooks.
The ritual, carried out daily for up to a week, is part of a young Thai elephant's training by villagers for a working life entertaining tourists in Thailand and has been secretly videotaped by animal rights activists.
"Our footage shows elephants covered with wounds, blood, bruises...and back of the legs covered with diarrhea as a result of the fear and stress," said Jason Baker, Asia representative for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA).
PETA used the video to launch a global campaign this month urging tourists to boycott Thailand, hoping to hit the country where it hurts and force the government to ban the tethering of elephants and their use in tourist shows.
But PETA's findings have been challenged by conservationists and the Thai government, which says the group is promoting a one-sided campaign about the treatment of elephants, Thailand's national symbol.
Conservationists and the government say there are few alternatives to domestication or living in captivity for the country's estimated 4,000 elephants.
The elephants' natural habitat is disappearing fast, eaten away by rapid urbanization, greater demands for resources and a growing human population.
I don't think the issue at hand was 'domestication' but rather humane treatment. How can the fact that their running out of space justify the torture of these benevolent creatures. elephants are extreamly bright and these methods are not necessary....what a way to treat your national symbol.
You know, stuff like this makes me sick. The would-be domesticators should be lined up and domesticated themselves. I remember reading somewhere about how intelligent these animals are. I'm sure this treatment is not necessary.
I feel sorry for the elephants and have never really agreed with holding them in captivity. But I must comment on PETA (oh boy here it comes) on this.
I really hate to say this but people don't visit Thailand for the elephant shows. They visit it for the more *ahem* adult shows if you get my drift. I know that PETA is trying, and I do respect it when it's above board, but I really don't think calling for a boycott because of the elephant treatment is going to keep people from going to that country.
I hope something happens from this to benefit the elephants though.
After reading in the Washington Post, how your nation trains Elephants for the amusement of tourists, I shall not visit your country or purchase any products from your land as long as this treatment is allowed. I shall also recomend to everyone I know that they also boycot your land and any products originating from it.
I support PETA in almost everything that they stand for, and this is one of their stronger points that I am fighting the hardest to try and help out.
While Thailand is its own country and they can run their country however they see fit, a way to hurt them is by boycotting things that are made in their country, which is something I have done to the fullest extent that I can manage. I urge you all to email thai-la@mindspring.com and tell them of your boycott, just as Tedob has suggested, and see if we can make a difference.
Basicly "they" shouldn't torture animal to attract tourist!
they shouldn't torture animals period. if i ever saw someone break open a monkeys skull and put a spoon to its brains while its sitting their concious, unable to move...I'd loose it compleatly. These people are far worse than animals themselves, i don't care how much of a right they have to their own "culture"...well enough of that.
if they wern't so far away the actions of alf would be more appropriate, but a boycott will do, i guess.
I first killed an animal when I was 12 years old.
What I killed, I ate.
The thought of eating live monkey brain is abhorrent to me.
Same goes for the torture of an elephant.
Torturing animals for any reason is horrible. Bucket, I too have killed animals but we ate what we killed. There is no difference from torturing an animal to a human. I can't stand to see anything suffer for any length of time. I'll join in the boycott also.

Known as the sculptor who drew with metal, David Smith made paintings and drawings throughout his life. Dedicated to the dialogue between two and three dimensions, Smith aimed to convey the same free movement of forms in sculpture, as in painting. The artist considered drawing and painting the most direct, unmediated form of expression, flowing, as it were, uncontained from pencil to paper, brush to canvas. Highlighting Smith's radical approach to line, space, and mass, as well as his merging of forms from nature and industry, 'Untitled' (1934) toys view a viewer's expectations.
While Smith's early paintings show his absorption of the visual language of European Modernism, they also trace his development as an artist and the gradual realization of a personal style that incorporated the visual syntax of his own, fundamentally American, experience. It is central to an understanding of Smith's oeuvre that he continued to think of himself as a painter throughout his practice. It is this interdependence of sculpture and painting that enriches the viewer's reception of Smith's work, emphasizing the artist's conviction that every facet of his visual output represented an essential element of his total artistic vision.
One of the foremost artists of the twentieth century and the sculptor most closely linked to the Abstract Expressionist movement, David Smith is known for his use of industrial methods and materials, and the integration of open space into sculpture. Over a 33-year career, Smith greatly expanded the notion of what sculpture could be, questioning its relationship with the space it was created in and its final habitat; from the artist's atelier and art foundry into the realms of industry and nature. Spanning pure abstraction and poetic figuration, Smith's deeply humanist vision has inspired generations of sculptors for the decades since his death.

What Is a Feudal Monarchy? A feudal monarchy is a system of political organization that has its basis in relationships between land owners (nobles) and the people who work the land in return for the nobles' protection (serfs).
Feudal Monarchy. From Europa Universalis 3 Wiki. Jump to: navigation, search. This article is accurate for the latest versions of EU3, Napoleon's Ambition, In Nomine, Heir to the Throne and Divine Wind.
The original family domains were centred around Kosovo region, one of the heartlands of medieval Serbian state. Later members of the house extended their rule over all remaining independent regions of Serbia making them the last suzerain rulers of medieval Serbia. The dynasty ruled the Serbian Despotate from 1427 to 1459.

Has New Orleans Improved Enough to Get the Mayor Reelected?
by Tribune News Service | January 30, 2014 AT 7:25 PM
By Molly Hennessy-Fiske
Mayor Mitch Landrieu strode into a battered city park in the troubled Central City neighborhood one recent Saturday, stopping to clap a boy on the shoulder and watch him twirl a basketball.
Louisiana May Determine Control of the U.S. Senate A Creative Comeback in the Big Easy How New Orleans is Rebuilding Its Ruined School System from the Ground Up Fixing New Orleans
Wearing jeans, sneakers and a New Orleans Saints football sweatshirt, he looked like a coach, solidly built, with a gravelly tenor that projected over the field and basketball courts.
Volunteers working nearby called out "Mr. Mayor!" and stopped him for hugs as he worked the crowd. They included young African-American and white professionals with small children in tow, retirees, the local city councilwoman, police chief, firefighters and the leader of a Mardi Gras Indian tribe.
"It takes all of us working together to improve the city," Landrieu said, to applause.
Nearly nine years after Hurricane Katrina decimated New Orleans, which was already beleaguered by crime and urban decay, Landrieu has been credited with successfully managing a revival. He proved a marked contrast to his predecessor, C. Ray Nagin, whose trial on federal corruption charges began Monday. When Republican Sen. David Vitter said last week that he would run for governor in 2015, some anticipated a potential matchup with Landrieu, 53.
New Orleans grew to 370,000 residents in the last five years, regaining 80 percent of its pre-Katrina population. Crime rates have fallen below pre-Katrina levels. Post-recession, the city has rebounded, with more new businesses per capita than the nation overall. A recent University of New Orleans survey gave the mayor a 65 percent approval rating, with 60 percent among African-Americans, who are more than half of the electorate.
"A lot of people thought he was just going to march right in and have a coronation," said Edward Chervenak, a political scientist at the university.
Yet Landrieu, a former state legislator and lieutenant governor, faces an unexpectedly tough re-election race. He has countered stinging public criticism from two Democratic opponents, both African-American, during the campaign and a slew of debates. Trying to tap African-American voters' frustration with the pace and uneven benefits of rebuilding, his rivals have sought to force Landrieu into a runoff.
The very thing that eased Landrieu's political career _ his powerful family _ could hurt him. He is the younger brother of Sen. Mary L. Landrieu, D-La., and son of the city's last white mayor, Maurice "Moon" Landrieu, who marshaled support from the African-American community to shepherd New Orleans through another storm _ desegregation.
When President Barack Obama endorsed Landrieu this month _ a rare move for the president in a Democratic mayoral primary _ Landrieu credited the ties he forged with the White House during post-Katrina rebuilding.
"I have a personal relationship with President Obama that transcends his relationship with Sen. Landrieu," the mayor said. But one of Landrieu's opponents, former Civil District Judge Michael Bagneris, once an aide to the city's first African-American mayor, Ernest "Dutch" Morial, called the endorsement a favor to Landrieu's "big sister" who is facing a tough re-election race in the fall.
"Do you think the president woke up one day and said, 'I'm going to help my buddy Mitch' " Bagneris said over coffee at a downtown New Orleans hotel.
Bagneris, 63, won the endorsements of both the Orleans Parish Democratic and Republican executive committees (no Republican candidate is running). It was a rebuke to Landrieu from some of the city's political class but not a major blow: Landrieu won without the Democratic committee endorsement in 2010.
Bagneris, who served 20 years on the bench, has faulted Landrieu for failing to unite and revive the city faster, to curtail crime and to ensure African-Americans a share in employment, city contracts and growth.
"He's not his dad. His dad actually did bring people together. That's not his style. He has not done anything to extend the hand of cooperation," Bagneris said, explaining why he calls Landrieu "Half Moon."
According to a report released last year by the Greater New Orleans Community Data Center, the city's African-American men have struggled with unemployment, with only 53 percent employed as of 2011, the most recent year available. Minority-owned businesses have benefited less from the recovery than they have in other large cities, the report found.
Another of the mayor's opponents, Danatus King, president of the local NAACP branch, told Landrieu during a mayoral debate that New Orleans had become two cities _ the haves and have-nots.
Landrieu said it was tough to satisfy everyone. He noted that when he took the city's helm in 2010, it was 25 percent over budget because of overspending, with a shortfall of about $30 million. The murder rate was the highest in the nation. The Police Department was understaffed, plagued by high-profile misconduct. Much of New Orleans was still reeling from Katrina, which had hit five years earlier, and was in need of new streets, schools and hospitals. On top of all that, less than a month before his inauguration, the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig exploded, sending oil gushing into the Gulf of Mexico and taking a heavy toll on tourism and fishing. Landrieu said he became "an emergency room physician in a war zone."
He pointed to signs his redevelopment strategy was succeeding: new streets beside the park, a new school and a novel low-income housing development of pitched roofs and porches that mimic the local style. Now that the city has stabilized, he said, "we're the nation's laboratory for change."

The TB12 Method
Por Tom Brady

Assunto: Futebol americano
R$ 49,90 No itunes Na Amazon
The #1 New York Times bestseller by the 6-time Super Bowl champion
The first book by New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady—the 6-time Super Bowl champion who is still reaching unimaginable heights of excellence at 42 years old—a gorgeously illustrated and deeply practical "athlete's bible" that reveals Brady's revolutionary approach to sustained peak performance for athletes of all kinds and all ages.
In modern sports, some athletes have managed to transcend their competition in a way that no one will ever forget: Jordan. Jeter. Ali. Williams. These elite legends have changed the game, achieved the unthinkable, and pushed their bodies to unbelievable limits. Joining their exclusive ranks is Tom Brady.
"Brady is the healthiest great champion the NFL has ever had, both physically and mentally" (Sally Jenkins, The Washington Post). The longtime New England Patriots quarterback, who in 2017 achieved his fifth Super Bowl win and fourth Super Bowl MVP award, is widely regarded as an athlete whose training and determination pushed him from a mediocre draft position to the most-revered and respected professional football player of his generation.
In The TB12 Method, Tom Brady explains how he developed his groundbreaking approach to long-term fitness, presenting a comprehensive, step-by-step guide to his personal practice. Brady offers the principles behind pliability, which is at the heart of a new paradigm shift and movement toward a more natural, healthier way of exercising, training, and living—and one that challenges some commonly held assumptions around health and wellness. Filled with lessons learned from Brady's own peak performance training, and step-by-step action steps to help readers develop and maintain their own peak performance, The TB12 Method also advocates for more effective approaches to strength training, hydration, nutrition, supplementation, cognitive fitness, recovery, and other lifestyle choices that dramatically decrease the risk of injury while amplifying and extending performance, as well as quality of life.
After using his methods for over a decade, Brady believes that the TB12 approach has made him—and can make any athlete, male or female, in any sport and at any level—achieve their own peak performance. With instructions, drills, photos, in-depth case studies that Brady himself has used, as well as personal anecdotes and experiences from on and off the field, The TB12 Method is the only book an athlete will ever need, a playbook from Brady himself that will change the game.

FRANKFURT/NEW YORK, Nov 13 (Reuters) - Buyout group Carlyle has picked four banks to lead the U.S. stock market listing of German speciality chemicals group Atotech, a former part of oil group Total, people close to the matter said.
Bank of America, Citi, Credit Suisse, JP Morgan have been chosen to organise the initial public offering, which is expected to take place as early as the second quarter of 2019, the people said.
Carlyle and the banks declined to comment.
Atotech, a Berlin-based maker of speciality chemicals and equipment for printed circuit boards and semiconductors, posted adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) of $329 million on sales of $1.2 billion last year.
Carlyle bought Atotech in 2016 at an enterprise value of $3.2 billion or 12 times its core earnings.
While an offer size has not been decided yet, a share issue of about $600 million has been discussed in initial meetings with banks, one of the sources said.
The company could be valued at around $5 billion, or 13 to 14 times Atotech's expected core profit of up to $400 million, people said earlier this year.
The valuations of U.S.-listed peers such as Cabot Microelectronics, Entegris, Quaker Chemical and Versum Materials have, however, come down recently and they now trade at only 8.5 to 10 times their expected core earnings.
That is putting pressure on Atotech's potential valuation, which may as a result end up lower, the people said.

ARTICLES Our next big infrastructure project: a national people-power grid
Our next big infrastructure project: a national people-power grid
Steve Wyler
Steve Wyler is an independent consultant with 30 years experience in the field of social change. He is a former Chief Executive of Locality and sits on the Civil Society Futures panel.
Over several hundred years a series of great nationwide infrastructure projects were successfully accomplished.
Canals, railways and tramlines, bridges and roads and motorways, seaports and airports made travel and transport incomparably faster and easier. Hospitals and health centres and libraries and schools and colleges and universities made possible enormous advances in health and learning. Overground pylons and underground cables and pipelines brought power to our businesses and to our public facilities and to our homes. Telegraph wires and telephone exchanges and radio and television transmitters and internet cables and broadband technologies delivered ever faster and fuller communications.
How were these astonishingly ambitious projects achieved? In some cases by private businesses, seizing commercial opportunity. In other cases by national government, or local government, acting in the public interest. Often a combination of all of these.
This is the infrastructure which made possible the industrial revolution, and the welfare state, and which in recent years has created the foundations for the digital revolution.
But what kind of infrastructure will we need for the future? Yes, we need an industrial strategy, but what about a social infrastructure strategy? And in particular a strategy to bring about a society which connects us better, and which humanises the way we do things, and which allows more people to exercise more influence and take more control of the things that matter most to them.
I believe the next big infrastructure project must be to establish a national people-power grid, operating universally across the country but owned and controlled within our communities. What might it look like? Here are some ideas:
People who connect people. Nothing can substitute for the personal touch. In every neighbourhood we need people who are really, really good at encouraging connectivity to flourish. This could include 'community organisers', skilled at listening, at igniting the impulse to act, at helping people come together to improve their lives and their neighbourhoods and bringing about the changes they want to see. Also 'community connectors', people who are ready and willing to pick up a conversation with someone who seems to be struggling, tell them about social activities or support organisations, and encourage them to play a fuller part in community life. Training and co-ordination is needed for such schemes to flourish, but they often work best when delivered by people who don't see it as a formal 'job' but rather as part of everyday life.
Sustained effort. Community, like trust, is something which can be damaged quickly, but which can take many years to grow strong. Locally-embedded institutions which feel welcoming and attractive to all sections of the local population, and where associative life can flourish, can play a big role. These are sometimes described as 'community anchor' organisations. Pubs and coffee shops and libraries and schools all have a part to play, as do community health centres and locally-run housing associations, but what is really needed is a revitalised version of a community centre or hub, lively, entrepreneurial, energising, community-owned and led, driving connection and collaboration, building pride and possibility in the here and now while also playing the long game. There are many great examples, but investment, including an accelerated programme of transferring land and buildings into community ownership, will be needed to universalise this, so that people in every community can benefit.
Digital platforms. Our future will be increasingly digital, and a national people-power grid will need to embrace this. Social media in particular will play a big role. It seems to be especially well suited for enhancing transparency and exposing injustice. It is good for engaging with very large numbers of people, and can sometimes help to shift public debate and behaviour in dramatic ways, but also lends itself to campaigns which require little effort and which are often soon forgotten. It can attract public support and funds to worthwhile causes and is an immensely powerful tool for connecting people who share distinctive interests and identities – within place and beyond place. But where the online world is less developed is in helping people come together to generate constructive solutions, and to learn from the experience of others, exchanging skills and knowledge across communities. This can probably never be achieved simply online – often it's the combination of online and in-person connection which turns out to be most powerful. But what might help – a social Wiki perhaps, as recently set out by Matt Kepple from Makerble?
Self interest. We will never build a truly connected society if we rely on altruism alone. As Jess Steele has described in her proposals for 'self-renovating neighbourhoods' we need to tap into the great grassroots virtues of thrift, impatience and sociability and work along the grain of real motivation, the desire lines carved out by love, anger, fear and hope. It is the give-get relationships which are most likely to work most of the time for most people. We can find this in time-banks, where the contribution people can make to supporting each other, and what they can expect back, is measured in hours – a great equaliser. We can find it in the 'micro-providers' schemes pioneered by Community Catalysts, where local people can earn income by acting as care providers for their neighbours. We can find it in community shares schemes, where people are invited not to simply make a donation, but rather to buy a share in a project they care about, extending and democratising ownership of community assets. With careful nurturing such schemes could be extended to many more communities across the country. And there is potentially something more, as Jess Steele and others have suggested. What about a series of resource banks – operating locally, regionally, and nationally, where investment (money with skills) can be pooled and held in trust, and to which communities can contribute and from which communities can draw down?
Solidarity. Within communities we need to discover and rediscover the art of solidarity, taking steps to understand why some people are left out, becoming curious about what others are thinking, making time to talk about tensions and disagreements, discovering unexpected shared interests. Sometimes this requires expert facilitation. But often things begin to change as soon as more people spend more time with one another, eating together, playing sports together, exercising together, campaigning together, making things together. And beyond individual communities we need platforms which make it easier to find inspiration, share support, and drive change, from Hartlepool to Hastings, Penrith to Penzance, building a national solidarity network. Some of the architecture for this already exists, and in the social enterprise sector we have seen how the connectivity achieved by organisations like the Plunkett Foundation, Locality, Co-ops UK, the School for Social Entrepreneurs, and Social Enterprise UK, has built momentum and confidence. We simply need to grow this further, so that all communities can benefit, and can become part of a bigger collective effort.
In all of this, we are not starting from scratch. There is a great deal to build upon. Let's celebrate the best work of the councils of voluntary service, volunteer bureaux, rural community councils, community development trusts, and many others. But the real question is whether we can we bring the same level of ambition and creativity to bear, which has characterised the great infrastructure advances of the past?
Furthermore, these steps, ambitious though they are, would be only one phase. If we can create the foundations for a national people-power grid, in a way that allows its development to be open-sourced, and populated by all the individuals and organisations and groupings which want to be part of it, then a great many people will have the opportunity to build further, bringing their own ideas, insights, energy. So that the national people-power grid continues to grow and develop, and becomes so much part of our lives that eventually, as with the rest of the infrastructure which makes our modern lives possible, we almost take it for granted.

Brief Amici Curiae of Minnesota Legislators and North Carolina Legislative Leaders in Support of Plaintiffs-Appellees/Cross-Appellants
Legal Brief
Hans Bader • 05/12/2011
Full Document Available in PDF
Court below correctly found that the ACA is unconstitutional, because its individual mandate is not a valid regulation of economic activity. However, the ACA suffers from a second, equally fundamental constitutional flaw resulting from the ACA's dramatic expansion of the Medicaid Program. The ACA's ambiguity and indefiniteness renders it illegitimate under well- established Supreme Court Spending Clause jurisprudence. The legitimacy of Congress's power to legislate under its spending power rests on whether states voluntarily and knowingly accept the conditions imposed upon them in return for their acceptance of federal funds. For there to be a voluntary and knowing acceptance, Spending Clause legislation requires that federal conditions be sufficiently clear and definite so that elected representatives of their citizens and taxpayers can make an informed decision of whether to accept the funds, being cognizant of the consequences. The ACA's ambiguity prevents states from making a clear and informed choice, requiring North Carolina and Minnesota to subject themselves to unknowable and potentially crippling obligations in order to continue their participation in the Medicaid program.
The ACA's radical expansion of Medicaid exceeds Congressional authority under the Spending Clause and thus violates the Tenth Amendment. This is because "'legislation enacted pursuant to the spending power is much in the nature of a contract,' and therefore, to be bound by 'federally imposed conditions,' recipients of federal funds must accept them 'voluntarily and knowingly.''' "States cannot knowingly accept conditions of which they are 'unaware' or which they are 'unable to ascertain.'"
In determining whether statutory conditions are clear enough to ensure a knowing and voluntary acceptance, they must be viewed "from the perspective of a state official who is engaged in the process of deciding whether the State should accept [federal] funds and the obligations that go with those funds." The ACA is too vague and indefinite to satisfy these requirements, providing Federal officials with a virtual blank check in construing and implementing many of its provisions, and extending their reach. Federal officials also have vast discretion to waive key provisions of the bill, which they have repeatedly done on a temporary, ad hoc basis. This ambiguity and indefiniteness makes it impossible for states to be cognizant of the ACA's future consequences, which are inherently unknowable.
These ambiguities and unbridled discretion further make it impossible for states to predict what mandates or fiscal burdens states will incur under the ACA if they remain in the Medicaid program. This ambiguity is aggravated by the fact that the federal government has used rulemaking to render the ACA's apparent limits illusory (such as imposing by rule a controversial provision that was deleted from the ACA prior to its passage). The ACA's vagueness is aggravated by its enormous complexity, massive scope, and unpredictable cost.

Growing up in a small town isn't easy, especially when you're the daughter of a local cult leader. Ten years ago, Eden Collins left Clear Springs, Montana, and never once looked back. But when the bodies of murdered young women surface, their corpses violated and marked with tattoos worn by her mother's followers, Eden, now an FBI agent, can't turn a blind eye. To catch the killer, she's going to have to return to the fold.
Sheriff Zach Owens isn't comfortable putting Eden in danger, even if she is an elite agent. And he certainly wasn't expecting to be so attracted to her. As calm and cool as she appears, he knows this can't be a happy homecoming. Zach wants to protect her--from her mother, the cult, and the evil that lurks behind its locked gates. But Eden is his only key to the tight-lipped group, and she may just be closer to the killer than either one of them suspects...

Alderweireld, Vertonghen key to Tottenham's success
By Joe Prince-WrightOct 29, 2015, 1:20 PM EDT
LONDON — Toby Alderweireld has settled in seamlessly to Tottenham Hotspur's defense this season.
That's probably because he has more than a few familiar faces around him.
On a trip to hang out with Tottenham and Buffalo Bills players last week, ProSoccerTalk caught up with Alderweireld, 26, at Spurs training ground for an exclusive chat as the stylish defender has started every single Premier League game at the heart of Spurs' defense alongside fellow Belgian Jan Vertonghen. The duo are forming a formidable partnership as they have conceded just eight times in the opening 10 games of the campaign, the joint-best defensive record in the PL, and they go back quite a way.
[ MORE: JPW catches up with Kompany ]
Also around to help Alderweireld settle in at White Hart Lane are other Belgian internationals Mousa Dembele and Nacer Chadli, as Spurs' lineup has a settled look about it with Mauricio Pochettino's men in sixth spot on 17 points from their opening 10 games.
What does Alderweireld make of the season so far as Tottenham prepare for their game against Aston Villa on Monday (Watch live, 3 p.m. ET on NBCSN and online via Live Extra)?
"We had only one defeat and that was the first game. We have a good organization and everybody works very hard for the team," the former Atletico Madrid defender said. "I think up front we can make more of a difference but we are in a good way and we've had a lot of difficult games where we have stood our ground and I think we are a team who are difficult to beat."
In his second season in charge, Pochettino has Spurs moving in the right direction and almost almost a third of the way into this campaign, how is the Belgian international finding life under the regimented Argentine coach?
"You can see that we want to play pressure on run a lot and have the ball as much as possible, so that is always natural that the team has the ball and wants to attack. It is nice to play for him," Alderweireld said.
[ MORE: Tottenham smash five past Bournemouth ]
Last season Alderweireld was on loan at Southampton from Atletico Madrid and he enjoyed a magnificent season under Ronald Koeman at St Mary's but returned to Spain and Saints couldn't come to an permanent agreement with Atletico after the La Liga side exercised their option to cancel Saints' previous option-to-buy clause. That led to plenty of suitors wanting to buy him permanently from Atletico and Tottenham won the race as Alderweireld joined for $17.5 million and was reunited with Vertonghen for the third-time in his career.
"I know him, especially from Ajax because I played with him but growing up in Belgium I didn't play with him because he is two years older than me," Alderweireld revealed. "It is nice to play with him, we know each other well and I think you can see that on the field."
Vertonghen and Alderweireld playing for Belgium
As Alderweireld alluded to, he and Vertonghen have a strong bond as they both played in the same youth team in Belgium, Germinal Beerschot, and both grew up in and around Antwerp close to the Dutch border. The duo also made the switch to Dutch giants Ajax and played in their esteemed youth academy before making it into the first team alongside one another in the same time as current Spurs playmaker Christian Eriksen and Luis Suarez. Their careers have taken similar routes ever since.
[ WATCH: Stream every PL game via Live Extra ]
Now, they're forming a strong partnership at the heart of Spurs' defense with almost telepathic understanding at times as Vertonghen likes to stride out of the back and play with his left foot, while Alderweireld is deft with his right peg and both players are just as comfortable playing in the full back position.
Plus, they are both extremely comfortable playing alongside one another. Alderweireld explains.
"We know, we know. We talk a lot before the game about how to defend and how we have to do this," Alderweireld revealed. "'This kind of striker we have to do this', so we talk a lot before the game and in the game it is split second. If you have to tell each other every time 'watch this…' then the moment it is gone. We know what to do in certain situations we know what to do. It is very important. We know from each other that when he makes a mistake I cover and when I make I mistake he picks it up. That is important not only with me and Jan but the team wants to work very hard and make sure other players' mistakes don't hurt us. That is why we have a good solidity."
That solidity has been key to Spurs' success this season and although they have drawn five of their opening 10 games, they've only lost once and that came on the opening day of the season away at Manchester United courtesy of a bizarre own goal from Kyle Walker. So, what are Vertonghen's best qualities as Spurs' vice captain continues to impress in his fourth season at the Lane?
"He is a very good defender and he can play the ball. You can always play him the ball and he knows what to do," Alderweirled said, appreciatively. "He is quite quick, quite strong and good with the head, so he is an all-around player. That is important in the Premier League that you can defend your strikers, not only the strong ones but the fast ones and the small ones… it doesn't matter, he can beat them all. So that is very nice to have him there and he is a very good defender."
Alderweireld celebrates scoring his Spurs in a win over Manchester City.
Another teammate for club and country who Alderweireld rates highly is Dembele. The midfielder has struggled with injuries and form since arriving at Spurs but has been pivotal in the midfield engine room in recent weeks and Alderweireld is a big fan.
"I think he is one of the best midfielders in the Premier League," Alderweireld said of Dembele. "He is very strong and it is difficult to be strong and technical. He has both. I think if he is not getting injured again then he will be a massive player for us. He can give even more to the team if he is healthy and I think the game against Liverpool was a massive game from him. I hope he can show it now every week because he deserves it. He works very hard and is a very good guy. I really hope he can show it more because he is one of the best midfielders in the Premier League."
With Dembele and Eric Dier providing a robust shield in front of Spurs' defense, Alderweireld firmly believes his side are setting the foundations for a successful season which will see them challenge for a top for spot.
"That defensive solidity is the way we will get success," Alderweireld said. "It is important that the team feels confident in playing and isn't conceding, not giving away a lot of chances. If you have to score three, four, five goals to win it is not good. I think we can improve up front but we are working very hard in a good way and we are playing very well."
The same can be said for Alderweireld and his good friend he shares the center back position with at White Hart Lane.

I have driven the 2019 Car of the Year!
No, the headline is not a mistake. I know that this is a brave, bold statement (some would say it's daft). But I can assure you that I know which car will win the 2019 WesBank South African Car of the Year (COTY) competition: the new Volkswagen Polo.
I guess that I am being a bit brazen in making this prediction. After all, the 2018 COTY winner hasn't even been announced yet (that will happen on March 13). And, to be perfectly honest, even though I'm a judge, I have no clue which car will win; there are just so many amazing finalists this year. Of course, the same could happen in the 2019 contest. But I'm sticking to my guns. The Polo will win. And here's why.
When the judges evaluate the COTY finalists, we look at a number of factors: exterior design, interior materials, interior layout, technology, engine, transmission, engineering integrity, build quality, ride quality, steering/handling, affordability, value for money and overall excellence. And really, the new Polo ticks all these boxes!
I love the new exterior design; it's sporty and chunky (I adore the wedge shape). The materials used in the interior are top draw; it feels like a far more expensive car. The interior layout is quite faultless.
When it comes to technology, the Polo excels yet again (it boasts a multitude of driver assistance systems – a Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Traffic Alert and semi-automated Park Assist system to name but a few - that were previously reserved for the Golf and Passat class; it's also the first Volkswagen ever to offer a new generation of Active Info Display).
Then there's the engine. Actually, I could write an entire article on the engine alone. It is Simply Superb! It comes with a choice of two turbocharged engines: both one-litre powerplants. The smaller of the two has an output of 70 kW. Standard with both the Polo Trendline and Comfortline, it's perky, responsive and surprisingly quick. It is available with a five-speed manual gearbox or a seven-speed DSG. Then there's the 1.0 TSI with an output of 85 kW (which is matched to a six-speed manual gearbox or a seven-speed DSG). At the launch, I drove with a guy who used to edit one of the largest motoring magazines in the country - so he really knows his (motoring stuff). There was one thing that he said over and over again while behind the wheel: "This engine is amazing; I cannot believe it's a one-litre." I totally concur with his sentiments. The manual gearboxes are terrific but the DSG is just incredible; in my mind, Volkswagen's DSG is THE benchmark transmission.
The newcomer to the Volkswagen stable is superbly engineered and built; there are absolutely no rattles or squeaks. This is something of which we - as South Africans - can be really proud, since the Polo is built right here in sunny South Africa.
The ride quality of the Polo is also superb (gosh I'm really waxing lyrical, aren't I?) The steering is faultless and the handling is predictable. My colleagues on the Women's World Car of the Year jury tell me that the new Fiesta (which comes to South Africa in the second quarter of this year) pips the Polo in the handling department - but the Volkswagen certainly doesn't disappoint.
In conclusion, one needs to consider the overall excellence of the car - in my mind, this is the single-most important factor when it comes to judging COTY. I'd have to give it 10 out of 10 in this regard. The Polo is a truly excellent vehicle. It will deservedly wear the 2019 COTY crown.

Roy Hodgson's men are favourites to win the game 1.61 (8/13), per online sportsbook odds, while Wales are deemed as heavy underdogs 6.50 (11/2). The most that the Dragons can hope for is a draw 3.60 (13/5) for this match.
The Three Lions boss is likely to start Harry Kane again in front of goal, who'll be aided by captain Wayne Rooney behind him in midfield. Young midfield talent Eric Dier showcased immense skill when they played Russia in their opening game, by notching in a superb goal from a free-kick. He's more than likely to start the game again, which will undoubtedly make a difference in the match. Bet with England vs Wales Enhanced Odds 5.00 (4/1) and earn yourself five times the wagered amount.
On the opposite end, Welsh winger Gareth Bale poses the biggest threat to England's defence. He struck a marvellous free-kick against Slovakia, in a game that ended 2-1 and essentially gave the Dragons 3 points for their efforts. Roy Hodgson's men will also have to keep a vigilant eye on Arsenal's Aaron Ramsey, as he's known for his tactical ability and clear-cut passing. If they're able to neutralize Bale's and Ramsey's movements, England will claim their first 3 points.

It is very easy to avoid a deadly disease like heart failure
Heart failure is a disease that kills millions of people worldwide every year.
In this disease, the heart is unable to supply blood to the body properly and gradually leads to death.
But it is up to you to avoid it and make it a habit to use just the right amount of water.
This was revealed in a medical study conducted in the United States.
Research conducted by the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute has found that adequate water intake can reduce the risk of heart failure.
Research has shown that the habit of drinking adequate amounts of water throughout one's life not only supports vital bodily functions but can also reduce the risk of future heart problems.
Researchers also say that the habit of drinking adequate amounts of water, like using salt, helps our heart and can reduce the risk of heart disease on a long-term basis.
The study examined data from more than 15,000 people between the ages of 45 and 66 who were part of a medical study from 1987 to 1989 and shared their medical details for the next 25 years.
The new study focused on how many people did not suffer from obesity, diabetes or heart failure at the beginning of the previous study and drank adequate amounts of water.
About 12,000 people in the previous study were included in the analysis, of whom 1336 were diagnosed with heart failure.
Researchers then analyzed the extent to which dehydration increases the risk of heart failure.
They found that drinking less water in middle age increased the risk of heart failure by 39% in later life.
Serum sodium levels were measured for dehydration, which increases when fluid levels in the body decrease.
The researchers said that a controlled trial was needed to confirm these findings, but preliminary evidence suggests that drinking adequate amounts of water may be helpful in preventing or slowing down the negative changes in the heart. Is.
"Serum sodium and water intake can be easily monitored and it may be easier for doctors to identify patients for whom drinking more water may be helpful," researchers said.
The results of the study were published in the medical journal European Heart Journal
