Q: Nativescript Android - hide keyboard In my Nativescript app, the application starts with the login page.  On iOS everything looks good, but on android, the username field is focused and the keyboard is showing. Is there a way to prevent this from happening?
So far I have tried:

*

*Getting a reference of another element (a label) and calling lbl.focus() in the page's onLoaded event

*getting a reference of the username textfield and calling txt.dismissSoftInput() and txt.android.clearFocus()

None of this worked.  Is there another way to hide the keyboard when the page is loaded?
Thank you

A: I guess the username field is either textview or textfield. If so, try this on loaded callback:
var myTextview = page.getViewById("myTextView");
myTextView.dismissSoftInput();

A: So I ended up implementing a different solution.  This may not be the best approach, but it serves its purpose in my case and I wanted to share it for those of you that face a similar scenario.
in page's loaded event I included this code:

    if (page.android) {
        var un = page.getViewById('username');
        var p = page.getViewById('password');
        un.android.setFocusable(false);
        p.android.setFocusable(false);
        setTimeout(function () {
            un.android.setFocusableInTouchMode(true);
            p.android.setFocusableInTouchMode(true);
        }, 300);
    }

The key here is the setTimeout function (Thanks Emil Oberg for pointing me to the right direction).  As far as I understand, here is what is happening:

*

*The page loads and we call setFocusable(false) on the only 2 text fields to prevent Android from setting the focus on them

*Then we wait 300ms to allow Android to do its initialization

*When the timeout executes, call setFocusableInTouchMode(true) to allow the fields to gain focus.

At this point the page is loaded without any fields to be in focus and with the keyboard hidden. If the user taps any of the fields the keyboard will appear and they can proceed to log in as usual.
As I mentioned, this may not be the best, or correct, approach, but works for me.  Hope this can save someone the time to research the issue.

A: You want to clear the focus of the field in the loaded callback:
var searchBar = page.getViewById('my-search-bar-id');
if (searchBar.android) {
    searchBar.android.clearFocus();
}

A: What about combining both tips above?
onClear(args) {
      const searchBar = <SearchBar>args.object;
      if (isAndroid && searchBar.android != undefined){//avoid random unpleasant error
         setTimeout(() => { // the key here was this timeout
            searchBar.android.clearFocus();
      }, 1)
   }
}

Home Authors Posts by Keith Lacey
I have spent the past 35 years as a journalist, including seven years as the editor of the Osoyoos Times, which is the job that brought me to beautiful British Columbia in 2011. I have spent the past nine months as a freelance writer with the Penticton Herald and Kelowna Daily Courier. When I'm not writing, my other passions include being a competitive squash player and playing hockey and golf. I grew up in Sudbury , Ontario and graduated from Ryerson University with a degree in journalism in 1984. After starting my career as a sports writer, I transitioned to news 25 years ago and have been a senior reporter, editor and associate publisher since then. After more than 20 years of working at a community newspaper in my hometown of Sudbury, I moved out West to continue my career as editor of the Barrhead Leader near Edmonton in 2010. I was promoted and was named publisher of The Bonnyville Nouvelle newspaper in 2011. I missed writing so stepped down from that position to take the editor's position at the Osoyoos Times. Besides a passion for sports and writing, my love affair with music started at a very young age and continues to this day. I've been blessed to see hundreds of concerts, including most of the greatest rock and blues bands of the past 40 years. I'm thrilled to join the team at Gonzo Okanagan and writing about the music, arts and culture scene in beautiful Penticton, which has been home since early 2013.

How to Become a Bollywood Star
After starring in hit films and belting out chartbusters, Ayushmann Khurrana has now released book, titled, Cracking the Code, about his journey in Bollywood. Funnily, the book is more about his personal equations with people (name dropping alert) and reads more like a personal diary to show off his successes. Modest much?
Not many know that Khurrana was a participant in the singing talent show, Channel V Popstars, which popped out bands like Viva and Aasma. As a participant during the talent scout, he got friendly with one of the winners, Neeti Mohan, who is now a popular singer. Here is how he goes on and on about how amazing they were on the show:
"My group had Neeti and me, amongst the most enthusiastic of the bunch. We not only wrote and composed a song, but also choreographed a dance that turned out pretty well. Since the two of us were the only dancers, we stood out. And we won. The way we bonded, sang and danced, people began to assume there was something brewing between the two of us, despite the fact that everybody knew we were individually in committed relationships. What I felt was this amazing creative energy emanating from her that I latched on to and I feel it was the same for her. It was that wonderful amalgamation of energies that helped us create a beautiful song that won us the round. And then there were others creating waves of controversies."
"Clearly surprised at being born"
"The stage has always allured me"
Khurrana was also the Roadies 2 winner. However, he believes that he wasn't cut out for the show:
"Some of the tasks on Roadies Season 2 were really crazy. At least they were for me. This one task was really embarrassing where we had to wear only langots (underwear) and wrestle with professional wrestlers."
"…And another incident which perhaps will not be easily erased from our memories was when Candy stepped out in a bikini. I was a very anxious pillion rider, but I only sat behind Candy because she had a great butt, and I bet she knew the reason and had no issues with it."
Like many struggling actors, Khurrana also faced difficulties finding a place to stay in Mumbai:
"…This is when I called up another friend, Siddharth Kapathia. He was pursuing MBBS from KEM Hospital, Lower Parel, and he snuck me into his hostel by making me wear a lab coat all day long. And it ended up being a lot of fun! All the doctors became my friends and I became the clown of the hostel."
"Trying to look as pretty as a girl"
"My trademark joota hai japani act"
As a struggler, he had his fan boy moments. He recounts one such embarrassing incident with Shah Rukh Khan:
"Just the fact that I was breathing in the same air as him was enough to give me a high. I stole a few glances of him shooting and even though I waited for four hours outside his vanity, I didn't complain one bit; they seemed like fleeting moments. Sitting there, I wrote the world's most embarrassing letter."
As soon as he hit the stardom, he had to pay a big price for it. Here he talks about how all the attention made him distant from his wife, Tahira Kashyap , who is also the co-author of the book:
"I didn't even realize when, at the first public event we attended together, I accidentally let go of her hand as I was accosted by the press. After about twenty minutes of jostling into the flashing strobes did I realize that I was not holding the hand of the person I had come with. When I turned around frantically to look for her, I saw her standing just where I had left her, with tears welling up in her eyes. I felt so miserable. I just wasn't in control of my life."
"The gawky teenage years"
He, honestly, expresses his disappointment with his first YRF film, something he wanted to do his entire life:
"…I never really wanted to do Bewakoofiyaan. I somewhere assumed that the script would eventually evolve from the first draft I had read. Bewakoofiyaan, being my first film with YRF, didn't come across as the grand YRF film that I had grown up watching and wanted to be a part of."
As the book comes to an end, he shares his opinion about the film-making process in India:
"…Suppose Karan Johar liked the script of Vicky Donor and took it to SRK, it could become a 'My Name is Vicky Donor' sort of game-changer. The same script when given to, say, Anurag Kashyap, might look totally different…a neo-noir version maybe?"
Let's just say, Khurrana has a long way to go before he starts penning an autobiography. Give the book a miss unless you are a die-hard fan of this Vicky Donor.

Q: Variance of Least Squares Estimator for Affine Model Suppose a fit a line using the method of least squares to $n$ points, all the standard statistical assumptions hold, and I want to estimate that line at a new point, $x_0$. Denoting that value by $\hat{y_0}$, the estimate is given by:
$$\hat{y_0} = \hat{\beta_0} + \hat{\beta_1}x_0$$
Where $$\hat{\beta_0} = \bar{y} - \hat{\beta_1}\bar{x}$$ and $$\hat{\beta_1} = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (x_i-\bar{x})(y_i - \bar{y})}{\sum_{i=1}^n (x_i - \bar{x})^2}$$
I now want an expression for the variance of $\hat{y_0}$. I tried to do it as follows:
$$V(\hat{y_0}) = V(\hat{\beta_0}) + V(\hat{\beta_1}x_0) + 2Cov(\hat{\beta_0},\hat\beta_1x_0)$$
Where $V(\hat{\beta_0}) = 0$ since $\beta_0$ is constant by definition (depending on the sample means). I also think that the covariance term should be zero because $E(\hat{\beta_0}\hat{\beta_1x_0}) = E(\hat\beta_0)(\hat\beta_1x_0)$ intuitively, but I haven't proven this. I'm not sure what to do about the middle term -- do I just hammer out the computation?
Advice/Solution would be appreciated. Note: this is a review question for a test I have tomorrow, not homework. I need to understand this.

A: Actually, $\hat{\beta}_0$ isn't constant - it depends on the $y_i$ (which follow a normal distribution). Note that in most cases, this variance would be likely computed for a prediction interval since you're working with a new $x$-value.
Using properties of variances and covariances,
$$\begin{align}
\newcommand{\Var}[1]{\text{Var}\left(#1\right)}\newcommand{\Cov}[2]{\text{Cov}\left(#1, #2\right)}\Var{y_0} &= \Var{\hat{\beta}_0}+\Var{\hat{\beta}_1x_0} + 2\Cov{\hat{\beta}_0}{\hat{\beta}_1x_0} \\
&= \Var{\hat{\beta}_0}+x_0^2\Var{\hat{\beta}_1}+2x_0\Cov{\hat{\beta}_0}{\hat{\beta}_1}
\end{align}$$
Now recall that the $y_i$ (not the predicted values) are based on
$$y_i = \beta_0+\beta_1x_i+\epsilon_i\text{, } \epsilon_i \overset{iid}{\sim}  \mathcal{N}(0, \sigma^2)$$
You can derive $\Var{\hat{\beta}_0}$ using the above, as here. You can also see here the derivation of $\Var{\hat{\beta}_1}$.
I haven't been able to find a derivation of the covariance. One way you could do this is by using
$$\Cov{\hat{\beta}_0}{\hat{\beta}_1} = \Cov{\bar{y}-\hat{\beta}_1\bar{x}}{\hat{\beta}_1} = \Cov{\bar{y}}{\hat{\beta}_1} - \bar{x}\Var{\hat{\beta}_1}$$
and this might be helpful.
The derivation is very, very tedious and long, so I wouldn't expect to see this on an exam.
Unfortunately, it's been a long time since I've done these derivations, and I'm used to doing them using matrices (which, quite frankly, is a lot cleaner).

I've been pinning recipes for various things on Pinterest, but that's of little use unless you take initiative and make those recipes. I decided to do just that! I should begin by saying I generally struggle to eat breakfast. It's been a bit of an issue with me for years, and I'm trying to change that. Lately I've had no issue eating breakfast – but that's entirely due to Bob's tempting sourdough bread. And eating bread every morning, while delicious, isn't necessarily the best breakfast option. Enter, breakfast bars!
After making our beautiful almond cake this past Friday, we cleaned the kitchen spotlessly. Immediately after, I decided to make breakfast bars as well. After all, the oven was hot, and it was a cool summer night. Why waste that opportunity? It was especially tempting because Bob's mother had dropped by some plump, sweet Saskatoon berries for us earlier that evening. Normally, Saskatoon berries are enjoyable, but these ones were exceptionally tasty. We had to put them to use!
Nutritious breakfast bars, perfect for those on-the-run mornings.
Line 9x9 pan with parchment paper, grease with coconut oil.
Combine ingredients in food processor, processing until combined and wet, about 2 minutes.
Pour into pan, spreading evenly across.
Combine ingredients in bowl, stirring to combine.
Remove pan from oven, spread topping on base.
Baking an additional 15 minutes.
We decided to adjust a recipe found online, using what was on hand. Having used most of our almonds ten minutes prior, I used peanuts for our base instead of slivered almonds. For the topping, I substituted in peanuts, chia seeds, flax, and local Saskatoon berries instead of blueberries. I was a little disappointed we didn't have pumpkin seeds on hand – mainly for aesthetics as they would be great in contrast to the berries! Despite this, I have to say the bars turned out quite well.
Overall, after a little taste test, I have to say they were much what I expected. They were hearty, filling, and definitely something that would be great for a quick breakfast on a busy morning.

announcements and comment
A People's Vote is absolutely no solution to the issue of Brexit
In the third of our Brexit posts, our Publicity Officer Owen McArdle writes why he thinks supporters of a People's Vote should be more concerned about another Leave win, and work to soften Brexit instead. CULC's Brexit panel event will be taking place at 18:30 on Tuesday.
Few things in political discourse rile me up like the phrase 'a People's Vote to stop Brexit'. My dislike of the phrase might be partly brought on by the fact that my final exams are a scary five months away and I would really not appreciate having the distraction of a referendum campaign alongside them. But more fundamentally I find the whole concept to be disingenuous. Clichéd though it has become to say it, we have indeed already had 'a People's Vote', which turned out a victory for Leave. And 'to stop Brexit'? Well, I presume there are going to be two options on this ballot.
And supporters of a new referendum as a proxy for cancelling Brexit would be advised to have a little more caution here. It is far from guaranteed that a referendum would produce a Remain vote. I will leave the question of whose support is softer for people who are much more familiar with the data than I am, but ultimately whilst the majority of polling places Remain in the lead, it is the proportion of 'don't know' answers – generally between fifteen and twenty per cent – that should still be of concern. The softness of support for the EU in Britain should be clear enough from other polling on the topic of Europe: such as when more voters would oppose than support re-joining the EU even if Brexit caused our economic situation to be 'a lot worse' – and that in a poll which otherwise showed a nine-point lead for Remain. I expect that Leave would win again, but polls like that shock even me.
In CULC it is very easy, in a city that voted nearly three-quarters in favour of Remain, to forget that most Remain voters do not feel that strongly. The people that raise Brexit with us on doorsteps at the weekend and the people who go to marches in London are but a small and particularly passionate part of the sixteen million who voted Remain. Most people are far less bothered. On a recent CULC canvassing visit to Leave-voting Peterborough, the poor quality of repairs to the pavements was raised with me on the doorstep by twice as many people as brought up Brexit (either favourably or not). As much as 'Project Fear' (a term that it is easy to forget was first employed by the SNP and their fellow Yes campaigners in 2014) is discredited, it was probably actually quite effective in keeping the Remain vote as high as it was.
So where exactly is the plan B of the People's Voters if Leave does indeed win again? Their lack of support for those in Parliament and elsewhere who are trying to mitigate the adverse effects of Brexit is infuriating. They seem so confident of victory that they appear to have given little to no thought to the possibility of a Leave outcome. The best-case scenario in such a situation would be a return to the chaos we are currently in; more likely would be a very hard or no-deal Brexit, brought about because the very politicians who could right now be softening Brexit will have instead chosen to take a gamble on a failed plan to try to end it altogether. Nobody can seriously claim that all Brexits are equal in their impact on the economy; a new referendum would be a reckless gamble with people's living standards.
What is clear enough is that the 'People's Vote' campaign is just a front for people who want to cancel Brexit. That is a perfectly legitimate position to take, even if I disagree with it, and I would have an awful lot more respect if they jettisoned the referendum and the talk of democracy and were upfront about that. But that is politically impossible in the mainstream, given even the Liberal Democrats cannot bring themselves to promise that in the (shall we say unlikely?) event that they were to win a majority.
And if that is not reason enough, just imagine waking up the next morning to a Conservative government, which should no longer be in office as it is, given a (perhaps literally) vital shot in the arm. That on top of a hard Brexit as well. As Labourites we should do everything we can to stop such a situation ever happening. Luckily there is a Labour government that has already been doing that: the Welsh Government produced Securing Wales's Future, alongside the late Steffan Lewis and Plaid Cymru, which set out a plan for a Brexit that would keep Wales and the UK within both a customs union and the Single Market. Sadly under Adam Price, Plaid have drifted towards the referendum option (albeit they and the SNP could probably be drawn back towards the 'Norway plus' model), but this is the policy that has been adopted by the Labour frontbench at Westminster, in practice if not verbatim. In a sign of the unusual alliances that Brexit can forge, I find myself on the same side of an internal Labour debate as Jeremy Corbyn, possibly for the first time ever.
There will be people who would be unhappy with the new setup, in particular the requirement to follow Single Market directives and enforce common tariffs from outside the political institutions of the EU. However, is it not clear by now that there is no solution to the Brexit crisis that pleases everyone? This is a question of priorities, and I merely propose a solution that fits my priorities – leaving the political institutions of the EU (remember how they handled Catalonia?), and avoiding large-scale economic disruption – and that I think has a good chance of passing through Parliament if the will is there to find a solution at all. But I do caution those who might have eyes on a bigger prize, and ask them to consider the risks too.
Many people are thoroughly fed up with the whole Brexit process. Not everyone is as interested as those of us who write blog posts like this, but I would be very cautious in assuming that people see Remain as the option to end the arguments. I voted to Remain in 2016, and I would probably do so again in the likely context that a second referendum would take place in. However it is not enough to say that there is 'a good chance' that Remain would beat hard Brexit, 'a good chance' that exporters would be able to sell their produce to Europe without tariffs, 'a good chance' that the Irish border could remain open. Unlike working within Parliament for a softer Brexit, a referendum can by definition never offer more than 'a good chance' – and 'a good chance' is simply not good enough.
Why Labour should still stand for remaining in the EU
In our second Brexit article, our Co-chair Lara Parizotto sets out why she thinks Labour should continue to support staying in the European Union. Our Brexit panel event will be happening this Tuesday at 18:30 at Emmanuel College.
I guess you could call me one of those macchiato-drinking, London-centric young liberals who strongly believe in Remain. But then I guess you could also call me one of Theresa May's 'citizens of nowhere'; perhaps an EU/Brazilian migrant who's 'jumped the queue' and, who, like many others, found in London a home. One thing I would disagree with, however, is the claim that I am 'pseudo-left'.
I have not only shared a house with migrants from Brazil, Russia, Ukraine and Lithuania (yes, all in the same house) but I have also shared working class experiences with them. Stories of difficult working conditions and poor resources from management to stock shelves, clean tables, kitchens and toilets. Not necessary to say, of course, that we were all well underpaid for the work we were doing to afford our expensive living costs. (It is no secret that rent in London is expensive, right?)
These conversations were not confined to my shared flat, but were replicated many times on the doorstep of council estates when canvassing with the Labour Party in my home constituency of Bermondsey and Old Southwark in London. While it is true that many working class people voted Leave, I beg that we explore a more nuanced view of who our working classes are as I find it disingenuous to say that the 'London liberals' don't understand experiences of hardship when many of them are the same people living in overcrowded accommodation and likewise struggling to make ends meet.
Ethnic minority groups voted Remain en masse. Only a quarter of the BME populations voted Leave. Even the groups who have not benefited from the EU's visa-free movement largely voted for remain. Perhaps because equality legislation, which have been greatly supported by the EU, including laws around equal pay and fairer treatment for those on part-time, temporary or agency contracts could be at risk outside the EU. And ethnic minorities, largely concentrated in London, are actually more likely to be in insecure or zero hour contracts. So I think we can say with ease that these are not necessarily the groups basking in the great wealths of London.
But enough with the demographics. We could cut the vote in thousand different ways, include gender, race, education and region and create a million new stories. It is clear it is not easy to provide easy and simple explanations for the vote. If we wanted to add property to our interpretation of class, for example, we would see that among private renters and people with mortgages, a small majority (55% and 54%) voted to remain; those who owned their homes outright voted to leave by 55% to 45%.
One thing we can all accept, however, is that a large group of the population has not been satisfied with the country's situation for a while now. They are in no way stupid to identify that. It would certainly be irresponsible to call them naive for expressing their discontent when their experiences and concerns are absolutely real. Unfortunately, these comments do exist. These comments are not necessarily from the London-liberal elite but have actually been uttered by the Prime Minister saying that 'there is no magic money tree'.
Leaving opinion of our electorate to a side, one thing we know well is that elections are won on message. Of course other factors do come into play but no wonder we spend so much time and effort in coming up with convincing slogans and attractive headlines. Vote Leave worked with a message of a better future that spoke to the heart of many. Reality has come to bite and Brexiteers will sooner rather than later have to accept that we can't always get all that we want.
Reports of medicines and food shortages are not 'scaremongering' but an unfortunate possibility. Not only that but potential poor regulations with regards to food standards and the environment in a 'No Deal' scenario would certainly hurt the poor. The most recent reports show that "demand for NHS staff rises as EU applicants 'drop off a cliff'" and the reality is that those are all 'side-effects' of Brexit that the very rich can avoid. Meanwhile, the poor, NHS patients, are left the suffer with raising prices and poor regulations and unstaffed hospitals. And let's be honest here, what we have in front of us is not a Lexit utopia but a Tory Brexit with serious calls for a cliff-edge scenario putting the interests of unfettered free market above of any working class interest. That is why I back a People's Vote and strongly desire for people to make an informed decision on the options in front of them, including proof of over-spending and election fraud by the Leave campaign.
'Project Fear', as it has been popularly called, has made the headlines again. The government's own economic analysis demonstrate Brexit leading to a cut to GDP by some 4%. That's a loss of over £100bn every year. Less money for public services and the least well-off hurt the most. Perhaps we do put too much focus on what could go wrong. But the reality is that we have already seen companies move elsewhere, car and aeroplane manufacturers show concern over the future of their business and more job uncertainty. Perhaps these are just exaggerated fears, but that is not a gamble the Labour Party should ever be prepared to take on the lives of those who already live in a constant state of vulnerability.
Another area where we require more solidarity as opposed to division is on freedom of movement. EU migrants live and work in this country and don't know what their future holds. If we, as members of the Labour Party, don't see that's a big enough issue, we risk not seeing the privilege unbalances that exist in our workforce. EU migrants have not driven wages down. Austerity policies have done that. Diane Abbott herself said that "If you work in the public sector, your wages weren't frozen and your pension cut by foreigners. They were slashed by this Government and its austerity predecessors." As a young trade unionist, I welcome the 'challenge', if you so wish to put it this way, that international workers bring to our workforce. Labour has changed and trade unions can and should adapt by producing literature in different languages and informing workers of their rights no matter their backgrounds.
If you are not convinced by this, I would guide you towards this report from CLASS think tank. EU workers are not here as an unfair competition but are facing the same hardship, on top of racism and abuse, as their British working class counterparts. In fact, we are an essential contribution to the UK's economy and I praise the many nurses who make up the NHS and serve those who need it the most.
Trade unions and trade unionists are also not blind to the damage that Brexit will cause. In 1998, the EU introduced limits on working hours, protecting staff from being overworked. The EU's Working Time Directive forces employers to give workers sufficient time off, as well as protecting night workers. Women and other minorities who are more likely to get discriminated against at work have similarly benefited from EU rules banning unfair treatment. Manuel Cortes, General Secretary of the TSSA union makes a positive case for the EU and a customs union when saying that "we must claim back the right to free movement of people. We must reassert [...] that it's greedy, unscrupulous bosses who exploit and pay low wages – migrants are as much the victims of this as indigenous workers." Amongst many other reasons, it is no doubt then why so many unions supported the case for remain and now GMB, Prospect, the Royal College of Nursing and Community join calls for a People's Vote on the final deal.
It is true that changes need to be made and the Labour Party should not be blind to that and indeed we are not. Jeremy Corbyn reasserted his determined views on that at the Congress of the Party of European Socialists in Portugal. Corbyn did not shy away in saying that "we have to recognise that EU support for austerity and failed neoliberal policies have caused serious hardship for working people across Europe, damaged the credibility of European social democratic parties and played a significant role in the vote for Brexit in the UK." In our Party, we will not be satisfied until we reach these reforms and this can only be done from within. At the end of the day, Labour campaigned for remain because we know that the rights or working class groups have been advanced within the EU. We are a Party with an international outlook and come a General Election or a People's Vote, I want to see the Labour Party put forward a positive message for the closest possible relationship with the EU, preferably within.
How pro-EU 'woke' socialists are showing contempt for the working class
As we build up to CULC's Brexit panel event this coming Tuesday (29th January), we will be featuring posts putting the case for various Brexit 'options'. The first of these was written by our Graduate Officer, Alasdair Keith, and first appeared in The Cambridge Student.
The EU referendum of 2016 split clearly down class lines. Whilst 59% of those in the AB social bracket and 52% in the C1 bracket (the upper and middle class) voted to remain, 62% of those in the C2 bracket (skilled working class) and a staggering 64% of those in the DE bracket (unskilled working class or unemployed) voted to leave.[1]
Why then do the majority in the Labour Party, and more broadly those on the left, insist that voting to leave the EU is against working-class interests? To say that they know better would be patronising to the extreme, and yet that is exactly what they do.
The reason for this is that the left is no longer working-class. Recent figures show that 77% of Labour Party members are upper- or middle-class, and it's a similar story for the Greens (77%) and Lib Dems (85%).[2]
Unlike the vast majority of Labour Party members, I actually am working-class. I started campaigning for the party when I was three (yes, three years old) and became a member at fifteen. I bleed Labour, and that's why I care so much about its destruction from within, by the 'woke', macchiato-drinking, London-centric, pseudo-left in this country. Nothing has deepened this dichotomy convulsing the party more than the EU referendum, where the sheer contempt these liberals have for the working class has been laid bare for all to see. Not a day has gone by since the result where I haven't heard Leave voters being referred to as stupid or racists. It's total nonsense.
I harbour a hope that this disdain much of the liberal left holds is unintentional and not born out of any real malice. It's with this hope that I have written this article, to try to convince the reader that Brexit will actually advance working-class concerns.
First, I would like to address the free movement of labour. The influx of labour depresses wages and compromises the bargaining power of trade unions. Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with the individuals themselves who come to this country in search of a better life – indeed, I admire them for making that leap. But we must stand up for our own low-wage workers. The Migration Observatory at Oxford recently collated various studies on immigration, which highlighted a common finding that 'immigration has [a] small impact on average wages but more significant impacts along the wage distribution: low-waged workers lose while medium and high-paid workers gain.'[3] Specifically, Dustmann et al.[4] found that 'a 1% increase in the share of migrants in the UK-born working age population results in a 0.6% decline in the wages of the 5% lowest paid workers,' a conclusion corroborated by the studies of Nickell and Salaheen.[5] Now to those who have never wanted for money, I guess a decline of 0.6% does not mean much. But believe me, it does for those at the very bottom of the pile. I'd also like to point out that recent levels of immigration have been far higher than a 1% share of the workforce (from 1997-2017 the increase was 9.1% according to the Migration Observatory[6] and 7.6% according to the Office for National Statistics)[7] and so the effects on wage compression are most likely far more profound.
Thatcher did all she could to break trade union power, and the EU – with its free movement of labour – is simply building upon her legacy. The premise is simple: in an environment where the labour market is exceedingly fluid, it is increasingly difficult for workers to organise and mobilise. Why would an employer choose a unionised worker when somebody arriving from outside the country, looking for work opportunities, demands much less from them? This is why big businesses are so much in thrall to the EU, and the gig economy – which the left professes to hate – is booming.
Another reason to condemn the EU is that, though it denounces protectionism in any of its member states, it is itself protectionist. Farmers in many parts of Africa and Asia would love to sell their goods in Europe. These are amongst the poorest people on the planet and yet the EU prevents them from trading through the imposition of impossible quality standards and the subsidisation of European farmers. I think we in the UK especially have an obligation to trade with those in the Commonwealth, who we shamefully abandoned when we joined the EU. Opening our trade in foodstuffs up to the rest of the world could be a mutually beneficial arrangement. We could waive the spurious regulatory standards currently imposed by the EU and set tariffs low or nil, particularly on goods not typically produced in this country (such as oranges or bananas) where there will therefore be no impact on farmers and agricultural workers here. That way, food prices in our supermarkets, no longer inflated by EU protectionism, ought to fall. This would especially benefit poorer households in the UK, who typically spend a higher proportion of their income on food.[8] Brexit therefore presents a real opportunity to benefit both the poorest buyers in the UK as well as the poorest producers in the world. I'd love to start buying my grapes, for example, from Namibia rather than from Greece. That would help the farmers of Namibia to sustain themselves and would also reduce costs for the British consumer.
Leftists should also oppose the EU because it is hostile to Keynesian economics. Indeed, the bureaucrats of Brussels don't believe in member-state intervention into the market economy, even during periods of low demand (which is typically accompanied by a recession). The EU tries to prevent (and can fine in the case of eurozone members) any sovereign government that runs a budget deficit of 3% or more of GDP. So, other than austerity – and we've seen how effective that is – how is a government meant to rejuvenate an economy during or after recession? After World War Two, we were able to spend our way out of poverty through a comprehensive public works program – why should we not be allowed to again? The reality of the matter is that the EU could easily block any meaningful reforms that Jeremy Corbyn wishes to enact – such as nationalising and integrating our transport system – should he become Prime Minister.
I am clearly no Tory. And I feel that Theresa May (who supports Brexit like the rope supports the hanging man) has approached these negotiations pitifully. But I don't trust Project Fear. We were promised an emergency budget even just by voting to leave, and that never materialised.
The Labour Party has historically been against the European project, including leading figures such as Clement Attlee and Tony Benn. The greatest and most effective trade unionist of the past thirty years, Bob Crow, was totally against the EU and even set up a party to fight against it. Back then, the left in this country realised that the EU was heading in a deeply undemocratic direction, and that the concept of a free market and the free movement of labour was designed to smash the trade unions. It's a real pity that the left seems to have forgotten its roots on this matter.
Perhaps there are those on the pro-EU left who are unconvinced by a genuine, working-class, socialist argument. Well, I believe in the people of this country, especially in the working class of this country, and I believe they got it right when they voted to leave the EU.

An Update on CULC's Access to Justice Campaign
Access to justice is a fundamental democratic right which we should all cherish. The severe levels of underfunding plaguing our justice system, however, are putting this core value to the test. The chaos inflicted on our justice system does not end in the courtroom and its repercussions should be a serious cause of concern to all.
Cambridge Universities Labour Club's (CULC) Justice Campaign was unanimously approved at our Termly General Meeting in November 2018. To develop this campaign further, members of CULC are now taking the necessary steps to educate themselves on the impacts of the cuts to the justice system and, in particular, cuts to legal aid.
The first step we have taken to build this campaign was to visit Anglia Ruskin University's (ARU) Law Clinic to learn more about why this was set up, how much it has already achieved and what actions it would expect the Government to take to improve citizen's access to the law.
ARU's Law Clinic offers free, independent and confidential legal advice to people dealing with family law matters in Cambridge, Chelmsford and surrounding areas. The clinic has been up and running for less than a year and has already given advice to over 300 clients, emphasizing that the increasing cutbacks in public funding for legal aid are causing a serious demand for legal advice. The clinic works collaboratively with local professionals, advice agencies and law students to plug the greatly needed gap of legal support. We all need access to the justice system and even if most of us, as students, may have been fortunate enough to not need to end up in a court hearing, it is undeniable the fact that a fair society with liberties for all must be governed by the rule of law. CULC believes that this is under serious risk as a result of cuts to legal aid and that is why we are passionate about campaigning on this issue this term.
CULC's visit to ARU's Law Clinic highlighted in particular the gravity of family law and how severe the cuts to legal aid are in this area. Family law can include divorce, child custody and visitation rights, child support payments, and spousal support. Family law often involves complex issues of domestic violence and child protection and so are cases where people are desperate for support, something which the Law Clinic has been successfully providing, even if recognising the number of people who are still in need to advice and support.
The Law Clinic offers free advice, help with filling in forms and have a dedicated team in the court ready to offer advice to those shut out of the justice system because they cannot afford it. The work of volunteer students in the clinic is supported by lawyers from private firms, ensuring that all advice given out is approved by certified lawyers.
Beyond the issue of affordability, our visit to the Law Clinic also demonstrated that access to the justice system is often restricted by knowledge factors which the clinic also aims to address via outreach work with local organisations like Women's Aid, Citizens Advice Bureau and more.
Our justice system is underfunded and spending on legal aid has shrunk by more than £1bn in five years. The consequences of this are clear, especially with regards to family law as defendants are walking into courts without legal advice and fair representation, a basic cornerstone of the rule of law.
CULC believes that there needs to be an urgent move towards reinstating the half hour free legal advice which existed before the 2012 Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act (Laspo) came into effect introducing funding cuts to legal aid.
Legal aid was introduced in 1949 by the postwar Labour government but has been cut by £450m a year since by the Conservative/Liberal Democrat Coalition.
Not only do the high costs of legal aid fees act as a key barrier to justice but they have also been leading people into debt and anxiety and have had a negative impact on children's lives.
CULC is happy to see the work of organisations like ARU Law Clinic plugging the gap but call on the Government to reinstate funding for legal aid urgently.
If you wish to learn more about the Law Clinic or know someone who would benefit from the advice, you can learn more about them here: https://www.anglia.ac.uk/business-and-law/economics-finance-and-law/law-clinic
CULC will be running a series of events and campaign days on the Justice System this term and we hope to have the support of students. If you are interested in getting involved keep an eye on our page for opportunities or get in touch directly.

Enterprise Minister welcomes new 'options' for young talent
Enterprise Minister Arlene Foster today welcomed a £2million investment in young talent, by Newry company First Derivatives.
First Derivatives is a leading global services provider in the capital markets technology sector, with offices in New York, London, Stockholm, Sydney, Singapore and Newry. The company's 'Options' programme offers successful candidates, including recent graduates or those early on their career path, a two-year programme of international client assignments and internal company projects.
During this time, candidates have the opportunity to work alongside experts in a range of fields, including Capital Markets, Finance, IT, Business Consulting, Marketing and Operations. Although initially based at the company's Newry headquarters, there are early opportunities to travel to client locations in London, New York, Hong Kong and other financial centres around the world.
Speaking at the official launch of the programme, Arlene Foster said: "First Derivatives is an ambitious, locally managed company, which is committed to further increasing its international presence through both organic growth and acquisition.
"Providing consultancy and specifically tailored software solutions to support high-volume trading activities at leading global investment banks and hedge funds requires some of the brightest, intuitive and analytical minds.
"Those who have been successful in securing a place on the programme come from a range of backgrounds, including high calibre graduates in Chemical Engineering, Experimental Physics and Computer Science, as well as individuals with experience in Law, Marketing and Human Resources. Through the Options programme, First Derivatives is investing over £2million to bring their transferable skills to Northern Ireland's financial services sector."
Brian Conlon, Chief Executive Officer at First Derivatives, said: "At First Derivatives we really do value our employees and consider them our strongest asset. It is only by enabling our employees to fulfil their potential that we, as a company, can fulfil ours. By offering successful individuals a fast track consulting programme to develop their skills and accelerate their career development in the international financial services industry, the Options programme will play an important role in ensuring that we continue to recruit and retain the most talented of people.
"At a time when many blue chip companies are reducing, or abandoning graduate recruitment, we are delighted to offer these opportunities. It is significant that First Derivatives was the only 'corporate' recruiting graduates for this autumn at the most recent graduate recruitment fair at Queens University."
At the launch, two of the 'Options' recruits spoke of their motivation to apply for the programme and of their initial impressions of the company. Michael McClintock returned to Northern Ireland having successfully graduated from Southampton University with a Degree in Mechanical Engineering.
Michael said: "I was excited about the opportunity to take up a position with a dynamic company, such as First Derivatives. Finding such a company in Northern Ireland was even more of a bonus. I will be spending the first few months of the Options programme learning the technology which underpins the company's product suite - Delta. After that it is most likely that I will be heading off to North America on client projects."
Local Newry girl Aoibhin O'Neill, who obtained a degree in Communications, Advertising and Marketing from University of Ulster, Jordanstown said: "First Derivatives immediately caught my attention at the Queens Graduate Fair. This is an exciting opportunity and I am looking forward to a progressive career within Capital Markets. I have only been here a month and I am already working with the Directors on several important strategic initiatives. The experience and knowledge I am gaining from them is invaluable."
The initiative has been part funded from the previous Invest NI offer of £426,883, to support staff skills development related activities and which is part funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF).


Last month, the San Francisco Planning Commission held a hearing on the draft environmental impact report (DEIR) for a proposed development at the Corovan site, located at the bottom of Potrero Hill's North Slope. A DEIR evaluates a project's potential impact on such things as traffic, dislodging or releasing hazardous substances, and the historic relevance of buildings.
The proposed project is located on four lots at 901 16th and 1200 17th streets. In 2013 the developer, Josh Smith, proposed to build housing and Kaiser Permanente medical offices at the site, presently occupied by the Corovan moving company, an idea that was fiercely rejected by nearby residents.
Smith is now planning to demolish what some consider historic buildings to construct 395 housing units and about 25,000 square feet of retail space. One structure would rise 82 feet, including rooftop projections, such as elevator shafts; the other would reach 52 feet with rooftop outcrops. At the October 1 Planning Commission hearing roughly a dozen people offered comments to commissioners, who will ultimately vote whether or not to certify a final EIR.
"This is ridiculous," 18th Street resident and Potrero Hill Archives Project director Peter Linenthal said, about plans to demolish two steel frame warehouses. According to City planners, alterations made to the buildings over the years made them ineligible for historic preservation protection. Linenthal disagreed with the City's reasoning. "By nature industrial buildings are regularly altered," he said.
According to Save the Hill, the DEIR has numerous flaws, including omission of potential traffic impacts caused by the proposed Golden State Warriors' arena project. Planning Department staff didn't include possible arena effects in the project's cumulative analysis because of the timing of the proposals.
"The Event Center project would not cause any significant change to the results given in this report and may potentially reduce the percent contribution to the impacted intersection from the proposed project," the staff analysis stated, in reference to the 16th/Seventh/Mississippi streets intersection. Save the Hill insisted that Planning Department staff relied on outdated traffic data from 2012 and 1998 to render this judgment.
"Award-winning San Francisco based architecture firms BAR Architects and Christiani Johnson Architects have crafted a design that utilizes an architectural vocabulary that celebrates Potrero Hill's industrial past while at the same time embracing several unique and creative vernacular designs that Potrero Hill is known for," Smith stated in an email to the View. "Neighborhood serving retail spaces are provided along both 16th Street and 17th Street to support a vibrant, walkable and people-oriented experience in the neighborhood and further enhances a sense of well-being by providing more 'eyes on the street'. The project will provide direct access to MTA's Route No. 55 bus connecting to BART and the T-line on Third Street.

Like their cousins the rebbachisaurids, the dicraeosaurids have been on a roll over the past year. I featured the new oldest dicraeosaurid, Lingwulong shenqi, last year. This week saw the publication of another new dicraeosaurid, from a much more typical time and place (the Early Cretaceous of South America), but with a unique style all its own: Bajadasaurus pronuspinax.
Genus and species: Bajadasaurus pronuspinax; "Bajada" comes from the Spanish for "downhill", but more properly is a reference to the locality, Bajada Colorada; "pronuspinax" comes from the Latin "pronus" ("bent over forward") and Greek "spinax" ("spine"), and refers to the outstanding feature of the animal, the long, anteriorly pointing neural spines of the cervical vertebrae (Gallina et al. 2019). Putting these together, we get something like "Bajada Colorada lizard with bent-forward spines".
Citation: Gallina, P. A., S. Apesteguía, J. I. Canale, and A. Haluza. 2019. A new long-spined dinosaur from Patagonia sheds light on sauropod defense system. Scientific Reports 9: article 1392. doi:10.1038/s41598-018-37943-3.
Stratigraphy and geography: The type and only known specimen comes from the Bajada Colorada locality off of National Route 237, 40 km (25 mi) southwest of Picún Leufú in Neuquén Province, Patagonia, Argentina. The formation is the Bajada Colorada Formation, of early Early Cretaceous (late Berriasian–Valanginian) age (Gallina et al. 2019). This formation is also notable for producing the latest named diplodocid, Leinkupal laticauda, which came from outcrops in the same area.
Holotype: MMCh-Pv 75 (Museo Municipal Ernesto Bachmann, Villa el Chocón, Neuquén), which includes most of a skull (the front end and the back end plus the lower jaw), both proatlases (obscure little bones between the skull and the first cervical vertebra, the atlas), part of the atlas, the axis, and an anterior-middle cervical vertebra, perhaps #5 (Gallina et al. 2019).
Sometimes a new dinosaur is not that impressive. Maybe there aren't a lot of bones, or the list of diagnostic characteristics is all impenetrable features of the braincase or ten-syllable laminae on neural spines, and there just isn't much to get into. B. pronuspinax is refreshingly direct.
Figure 1 from Gallina et al. (2019), showing A) a reconstruction of the material, B) the geography, and C) the bones as they were found in the field. CC-BY-4.0.
You may be familiar with Amargasaurus cazaui, a dicraeosaurid that lived a few million years later in Argentina. If not, here's a mount that visited the Science Museum of Minnesota as part of a traveling exhibition a few years back. The thing to notice here is the neck.
Yes, the twists and turns of selective pressures in Early Cretaceous South America had something grand in store for one particular lineage of smallish sauropods, at the probable cost of an instinctual dread of trees with overhanging branches. The discovery of Bajadasaurus shows that not only were extremely long spines on cervical vertebrae more than a one-off in dicraeosaurid evolution, the sauropods found multiple ways of growing them. Below is Figure 2 of Gallina et al. (2019), illustrating the various bones of the holotype. The one we're most interested in at the moment is the vertebra shown as parts Q and R.
Figure 2 of Gallina et al. (2019; see for complete caption). CC-BY-4.0.
B. pronuspinax also has the "split neural spine growing into paired elongate spines" feature, only in its case the spines are pointed forward instead of backward. This species must have had a very good reason for putting out a significant expenditure of bone for something that was even more anatomically inconvenient than the spines of Amargasaurus (if you have enormous bony spines coming out of your neck vertebrae and curving forward, you *definitely* want to make sure that there is nothing nearby to catch on them as you move around, plus they probably aren't doing any favors for the mobility of your neck). Amargasaurus and its backward spines have been a darling of speculation for years. You can find reconstructions with this animal sporting paired skin sails supported by the spines, a single thick ridge, bare spines, and various combinations (sails turning to spines, etc.). Most suggestions for what this feature did have centered on thermoregulation (big ol' radiating surfaces) and display. Gallina et al. (2019) instead proposed a defensive function, with the spines covered and extended by keratin. Keratin is advantageous because it resists impact strains better than bone, and breaking keratin beats breaking bone when vertebrae are involved. Under the authors' hypothesis, B. pronuspinax (and Amargasaurus) could become a hedge of spines when confronted with a large predator. Whether or not they are correct, just the presence of the long spines was probably an effective passive defense against biting attacks from the side or above, for the simple reason of how exactly is your average theropod with its long jaws supposed to make a solid strike on *that*?
Also, there's a lot of a skull. B. pronuspinax is one of the rare cases where a sauropod skull is overshadowed by another feature of the skeleton (both figuratively and literally in this case). Here it is, if you'd like to contemplate the face of an animal with such unusual vertebrae.
Figure 4 of Gallina et al. (2019). CC-BY-4.0.
Broadly speaking, there are a few similarities with some of the titanosaurs we've covered recently, such as Bonitasaura. The teeth in both are slender pegs, and are crowded to the front of the jaws, and the halves of the lower jaws meet in a squarish U, more rounded in Bajadasaurus. Bajadasaurus comes from a lineage with a much more elongate skull, though, as opposed to the shorter, steeper skull of Bonitasaura.
Gallina, P. A., S. Apesteguía, J. I. Canale, and A. Haluza. 2019. A new long-spined dinosaur from Patagonia sheds light on sauropod defense system. Scientific Reports 9: article 1392. doi:10.1038/s41598-018-37943-3.
I wonder if there's any data on just how many sauropods were preserved with skulls. Looks like presence of skull in Bajadasaurus is quite a big deal.
The titanosaur sample is still weak. There's Nemegtosaurus, Quaesitosaurus, Rapetosaurus, Sarmientosaurus, Tapuiasaurus, and then assorted braincases and jaw bones. Just to rub it in, only Rapetosaurus, Tapuiasaurus, and probably Nemegtosaurus are also represented by significant associated postcrania.

HAVE SUGGESTIONS FOR COOL AND INTERESTING THINGS TO DO IN THE Gilroy AREA?


One of the most annoying things to deal with as a patient and as a pharmacy team is notifying patients if and when there's a hiccup in filling their prescription. In a perfect world, somebody can drop off their paper prescription and pick up the physical product in a matter of minutes. Unless their insurance rejects the claim, if their insurance is even current. And I hope we have the product in stock, and that the doctor wrote the prescription correctly in the first place. And that the person ahead of them in line didn't have any of these things happen, causing a crisis that backs up production like a GI after months of Oxycontin.
I wish we could all every patient to let them know their prescription is done. We have an automated system that's supposed to do just that. It doesn't always work. It also isn't set up to notify patients if there are any issues with getting the med ready. For this reason, I encourage my patients to give us a call before returning to the pharmacy. It can save everyone time, and it also gives the pharmacy a chance to get their prescription to the head of the line.
There are fancy pharmacies out there with this kind of tech, but sometimes the most advanced pharmacies are also the least staffed. I'd rather have the time and people to take care of my patients, so I'll stay at my old school pharmacy.
Old Joe Malone returns this week. I'm still working on proportions. Joe and the Kid have arms from a Tim Burton film, but at least Joe's gut is anatomically accurate.

WikiLeaks Associate Claims Emails Leaked by "Disgusted" Whistle Blowers and Not Hacked by Russia
Sonya Sasser Send an email December 22, 2016
First it was because of all those "racists." Then it was the Jill Stein recounts. Now Russia is to blame for Hillary Clinton losing the presidential election. It couldn't be that the Democrats had a really crappy candidate after all.
And while the mainstream media and political hacks are all 'up in arms' over Putin interfering with the 2016 election, a Wikileaks operative claims that he personally received Clinton campaign emails in Washington D.C. after they were leaked by 'disgusted' whisteblowers – and not hacked by Russia.
The Daily Mail reports:
"Craig Murray, former British ambassador to Uzbekistan and a close associate of Wikileaks founder Julian Assange, told Dailymail.com that he flew to Washington, D.C. for a clandestine hand-off with one of the email sources in September.
'Neither of [the leaks] came from the Russians,' said Murray in an interview with Dailymail.com on Tuesday. 'The source had legal access to the information. The documents came from inside leaks, not hacks.'
His account contradicts directly the version of how thousands of Democratic emails were published before the election being advanced by U.S. intelligence.
Murray's claims about the origins of the Clinton campaign emails comes as U.S. intelligence officials are increasingly confident that Russian hackers infiltrated both the Democratic National Committee and the email account of top Clinton aide John Podesta.
In Podesta's case, his account appeared to have been compromised through a basic 'phishing' scheme, the New York Times reported on Wednesday.
U.S. intelligence officials have reportedly told members of Congress during classified briefings that they believe Russians passed the documents on to Wikileaks as part of an influence operation to swing the election in favor of Donald Trump.
But Murray insisted that the DNC and Podesta emails published by Wikileaks did not come from the Russians, and were given to the whistleblowing group by Americans who had authorized access to the information.
'Neither of [the leaks] came from the Russians,' Murray said. 'The source had legal access to the information. The documents came from inside leaks, not hacks.'
He said the leakers were motivated by 'disgust at the corruption of the Clinton Foundation and the tilting of the primary election playing field against Bernie Sanders.'
Murray said he retrieved the package from a source during a clandestine meeting in a wooded area near American University, in northwest D.C. He said the individual he met with was not the original person who obtained the information, but an intermediary.

SHE'S gone and gone for good!
Bhekimpilo Ndlovu from Goho village in Plumtree spent this year's Valentines Day lonely and hurt after a local traditional healer Christopher Mlangeni took his wife.
It all began when Ndlovu took his wife Sazini Nyoni to Mlangeni for treatment for swollen feet.
Unknown to him that was the beginning of the end of his marriage.
"I paid with my goats for her to get treatment and this is what she does to me? That's not fair," said Ndlovu.
He really loves her despite what has happened and wishes that one day she would come to her senses and return.
"She will look for me when she wants to come back home," he vowed.
But Mlangeni said Nyoni was with him because she wanted to not that he cast a spell on her as villagers allege.
"She came to my home and asked for assistance but when she was healed she told me that she would not be returning to her homestead because she loved staying in my home," he said.
Mlangeni added that people were jealous of him hence the complaints against him.
"People are jealous because I can sustain my polygamous marriage. These rumours that she is now my wife are shocking," he said.
Nyoni said she was still undergoing treatment despite Mlangeni telling B-Metro that he healed her and she was free to go but did not want to.
"I am still undergoing treatment and I will return to my husband when I have fully recovered. I am not in a relationship with Mlangeni, he is my healer and that's it," she said.
A villager who identified himself as Nkala said Mlangeni had a habit of making his female clients his wives.
"Mlangeni has a habit of helping himself to married women, his second wife was married to his former patient based in Nkayi," said Nkala.
Nkala alleged that Mlangeni could be using juju.
"When we question him about Ndlovu's wife he tells us that once she leaves his homestead she will fall sick again. We suspect that he uses juju on these women as Nyoni once told us that she was afraid to leave because she fears for her life," he added.

Nothing divides a community more than an outdoor display of decaying human remains. Academicians are stimulated, but the neighbors not so much. Teaching taphonomy and bug science (think maggots, beetles and flies) can be smelly, but has its place in forensics when unknown and homicide victims' remains become the center of police investigations. I like the fact that this proposed facility would be co-managed and available throughout the EU for students and research.
