Hurricane Nicole hit the east coast of Florida early Thursday morning. The tropical cyclone comes just six weeks after Hurricane Ian devastated the state, leaving Florida residents — and insurers — little time to recover before the onslaught of a second natural disaster.
Nicole, a Category 1 hurricane, brought 75 mph winds, storm surge and heavy rainfall when it came ashore in Florida. Parts of South Carolina and Georgia also felt effects of the storm, which is forecast to impact areas as far north as Maine over the weekend, according to the National Weather Service.
Florida hasn't yet recovered from Hurricane Ian, a Category 4 hurricane that slammed the state's Gulf Coast on Sept. 28. Its impact is still being assessed, but Ian was quickly labeled one of the costliest storms the state has ever seen, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's National Centers for Environmental Information.
RMS, an analytics firm that performs catastrophe risk management, estimated Hurricane Ian caused between $53 billion and $74 billion in damage to privately insured property across Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia. On top of private insurance losses, RMS estimated another $10 billion in flood damage that would be covered under the National Flood Insurance Program.
Additionally, the Federal Emergency Management Agency has paid more than $2 billion in grants, disaster loans and flood insurance payments to aid in recovery from Hurricane Ian, according to a Nov. 7 news release from FEMA.
Impact on Florida's troubled home insurance market
At the time of Ian's landfall, Florida's homeowners insurance industry already was facing a crisis: Floridians pay three times more for home insurance than the national average, according to the Insurance Information Institute. Even so, six insurers in the state were declared insolvent this year, making them unable to pay out claims.
With catastrophic losses from Hurricane Ian adding to the existing problem, insurance industry experts worry neither insurers nor Floridians were ready for Nicole. This is only the fourth hurricane since 1851 to come ashore so late in the season, which lasts from June through November each year. The majority of storms that reach land tend to fall between August and October, according to NOAA.
Two storms in quick succession likely will stress all aspects of the recovery process.
Mark Friedlander, Florida-based director of corporate communications for the Insurance Information Institute, says insurance companies tested by Hurricane Ian may not have the capacity to cover damage from another storm.
"We anticipate this will be a worst-case scenario for Florida's already-reeling property insurance market," Friedlander says. "While it appears that insurers do have the capacity to pay claims from Hurricane Ian, it's unknown if they have capacity to pay claims from another hurricane."
What can Florida residents expect after Hurricane Nicole?
People should expect a slow insurance claims process. From assessing property losses to repairing and replacing damaged property, everything will likely be affected by staffing and supply chain shortages. For example, the national car market has been in a crunch since long before Hurricane Ian crashed through Florida, which could make it difficult to quickly replace a vehicle.
On top of that, only about 20% of claims filed after Hurricane Ian have been paid out, Friedlander said in an email.
Still, people with storm damage should file their claims as soon as possible.
After a claim is filed, homeowners may be in a hurry to complete repairs, but it could help long term to think about materials and design changes that could make a home better withstand future storms, says Mark Misczak, senior vice president and chief operating officer with Tidal Basin, a disaster preparedness consulting firm.
"There are things that are easier to do during the construction phase to make a home more resilient," Misczak says.
It's also the time to evaluate hurricane insurance coverage, including flood insurance, even for people who weren't affected by the latest storms.
"Florida is vulnerable to storms all year long, not just hurricanes," Friedlander says. "You can have all kinds of catastrophes — you need to be prepared."

Bottle Light: the concept is simple, instead of trashing an empty PET Bottle, squish it properly and screw it onto the modular aluminum LED enclosure! Normally we just end up discarding the bottle, but using it in this manner; we can get vivid shapes and refracted colors for lights. I know this idea will click in theme restaurants that are eco-centric. Not much costs involved since you need to invest only in a couple of those LED lights and holders.
The Bottle Light won a Liteon Award this year!

I'm short of the eyes which discover beautiful things.
u do know he said LED which means the light bulb wont produce enough heat to melt the bottle ._.
Cool, but im just wondering…the heat to which it is constantly exposed, can cause release of harmful chemicals right?
If u use right bulb there shouldn't be heat?
That is called down-cycling, I think we should upcycle things for a better living. Maybe we can use some dirty PE disposable bags as tshirts :D. That doesn't help neither.
That's amazing, would work perfectly in the living room.
To Alex, I would imagine that the light doesn't heat it at all.
I am not Satisfied the Real effect of the design .I do not think it is beatiful as the picture appeared.

This is cool.. Really cost effective, yet the outcome is worth a look.
Human beings are so creative in this light is very good.
PTE Bottles itself is not environmentally friendly. Why is it that some people do not understand?
1.The PET bottles are put to good use , non polluting when used as light.
2. If proper heat syn is used the LED will not at all emit any heat.
hmm – not really sold on this one. Cool colours make it look good but at the end of the day you still have a load of all trash hanging from your light fittings!!

Domestic Consortium to Implement NIDC Projects
The National Iranian Drilling Company, a subsidiary of the National Iranian Oil Company, has signed a memorandum of understanding with a consortium of six domestic firms for implementing oil and gas development projects. The agreement was signed on Wednesday by Sepehr Sepehri, NIDC's managing director, and Hossein Afazel, the consortium's chairman, the Iranian Oil Ministry's portal, Shana, reported.
According to Sepehri, the cooperation focuses on drilling activities in Iran and overseas based on EPC contracts.
The bulk of deals concluded between domestic firms in the oil and gas sector follow EPC (engineering, procurement and construction) and EPD (engineering, procurement and drilling) contracts, which help contractors undertake most activities.
Referring to the Oil Ministry's policy of harnessing domestic potentials in the upstream and downstream sectors, the NIDC chief said, "NIDC welcomes increasing cooperation with domestic private companies to fulfill such a goal."
He added that domestic firms and contractors have an untapped potential which, if utilized properly, can meet his company's needs. The consortium comprises Akam Steel Company, Sirjangostar Global Group, Baron Compressor Company, Demico, Fanavaran Parsian Company and Payvaran Parsian Company.
The consortium's chairman noted that the six domestic firms completely cover the supply chain in the upstream sector.
"The member companies cover a wide range of services, including design and manufacture of equipment, operations and provision of licenses and insurance in the petroleum sector," he said. Afazel hoped that cooperation with NIDC will be a harbinger of hope for domestic contractors that seek stronger presence in the thriving industry. NIDC is responsible for drilling rigs operated by the National Iranian South Oil Company, Petroleum Engineering and Development Company, Iranian Offshore Oil Company, Iranian Central Oil Fields Company, Arvandan Oil and Gas Company and Pars Oil and Gas Company. The company has 73 drilling rigs, 68 of which are being used in joint oilfields, namely Azar in Ilam Province as well as South Pars, the world's largest gas field shared by Iran and Qatar, in the Persian Gulf.
Cooperation With Foreign Firms
NIDC also signed an MoU with the Polish EXALO Drilling SA on Tuesday, based on which EXALO will provide NIDC with a range of services, including technical engineering support and supply drilling and extraction equipment. The company will meet its requirement from domestically-made goods. EXALO has planned to establish a strong presence in Arvand Free Trade Zone in southwest Iran, bordering Arvand River and southern Iraq, which in turn can help NIDC expand its foothold in southern Khuzestan Province.NIDC is engaged in 70% of Iran's onshore drilling ventures, yet it only accounts for 12% of offshore initiatives.

The movie was extremely enjoyable, especially just seeing the superpowers of growing into a giant person and shrinking down to the size of insects.
Loved the partnership between both generations of Ant-Man and Wasp, as well as the search for the long lost mother.
Great comedy that had me laughing out loud.
Music was engaging, it made the movie feel like a huge heist.
Watching Ant-Man dealing with the consequences of Civil War was fascinating.
I love that the movie promoted forgiveness, redemption, and teamwork.
Post-Credit scene was worth the price of admission.
The emotional core between the father and daughter relationships felt hollow.
The Antagonist was a less compelling version of The Winter Solider.
Retrieving the lab and losing it continuously throughout the movie got tiresome.
Some visual effects were not well done and noticeable.
I was disappointed with the amount of Quantum Realm explored.
Relationships fail without communication, trust, and honesty.

Q: Look for Column and then filter I have headers starting on A3 and I am trying to get this code to look for column "Team Manager" and then filter on a login name.
Here is my code but it is not working sadly.
Sub FilterNames()

    Dim col As String, cfind As Range

    col = "Team Manager"
    With ActiveSheet.Select
        With .Range("A3", .Cells(1, .Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft))
            Set cfind = .Find(what:=col, LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole)
            If Not cfind Is Nothing Then
                .AutoFilter Field:=cfind.Column, Criteria1:="login123" '
            End If
        End With
        .AutoFilterMode = False
    End With

End Sub

A: It's an interesting little problem.  Please try the following code, based on all your headers being in row 3, on the sheet called Sheet1 - change these to suit.
Option Explicit
Sub FilterNames()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim LastRow As Long, col As Long

Const login = "login123"
Const header = "T*M*"

Set ws = Sheets("Sheet1")
col = Application.WorksheetFunction.Match(header, ws.Range("3:3"), 0)
LastRow = ws.Cells(Rows.Count, col).End(xlUp).Row

With ws.Range(ws.Cells(3, col), ws.Cells(LastRow, col))
    .AutoFilter 1, login
End With

End Sub

A: Your error is in this line:
With .Range("A3", .Cells(1, .Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft))

you are looking for last column in your Filtered headers, which is in your 3rd row, so it needs to be:
With .Range("A3", .Cells(3, .Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft))

Also, try to avoid using ActiveSheet and Select.
Modified Code
Option Explicit

Sub FilterNames()

    Dim col As String, cfind As Range
    Dim Sht As Worksheet

    Set Sht = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1")  ' <-- modify "Sheet1" to your sheet's name
    col = "Team Manager"
    With Sht
        With .Range("A3", .Cells(3, .Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft))
            Set cfind = .Find(what:=col, LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole)
            If Not cfind Is Nothing Then
                .AutoFilter Field:=cfind.Column, Criteria1:="login123" '
            End If
        End With
        .AutoFilterMode = False

WASHINGTON — On a day filled with pomp, circumstance and photo ops meant to commemorate pomp and circumstance, leave it to the youth to out-ridiculous everyone else.
After House Speaker Paul Ryan officially swore in the 115th Congress Tuesday, he began an hours-long photo op with members and their families.
Newly-minted Rep. Roger Marshall, a Kansas Republican, got more than he bargained for in his photo. Despite being a father of four with what is likely a finely-tuned nonsense radar, one of the younger Marshalls decided to take full advantage of his front and center position … by dabbing.
Dabbing is an upper body movement — made popular by Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton, and made embarrassing by former Rep. Loretta Sanchez during a political debate. Young Mr. Marshall did a textbook dab in the hallowed halls of Congress.
As you can see, Ryan didn't really get it.
He admitted as much later on Twitter.
Congressman Marshall was not amused and tweeted that he grounded his son for the stunt.

BB&T volunteers renovate room at Boys & Girls Club
Members of the Boys & Girls Club of Beaufort got their hands dirty painting the walls of the new art studio of the Boys & Girls Club of Beaufort. From left: Desmond Jones, Charvis Jones, Kamden Arnett, David Ash, Jasmine Rhodes and James Rising.
The Boys and Girls Club of Beaufort has teamed up with volunteers from BB&T to renovate the art room at Boys & Girls Club facility on Boundary Street in Beaufort. More than 20 employees from the BB&T branches on Lady's Island and Port Republic Street recently volunteered more than 100 combined hours updating the art room. The BB&T volunteers spent their time cleaning and painting the walls, adding a new sink, new cabinets and storage areas, as well adding new window treatments and organizing supplies. In addition, BB&T has purchased various of arts and crafts supplies to stock the shelves for future needs plus several items, including cameras, to expand the Photography Club.
"We can't say thanks enough to BB&T and its employees for our new art studio," Sam Burke, unit director of the Boys & Girls Club of Beaufort, said. "This is another great example of how our kids are continually nurtured by our neighbors. BB&T and its employees are creating a more close-knit community as they improve the lives of our children and that also enhances our club and our city."
Burke also said the new art studio will make it possible for the club members to hone their artistic skills and enter regional and national contests sponsored by the Boys & Girls Clubs of America as a result of the new room, supplies and equipment.
BB&T employees chose to work with the Boys & Girls Club because of the positive impact the organization makes on local youth. The volunteers were eager to support the art program by providing their time to enhance the youth's art experience at the club.
"Our employees whole-heartedly supported the idea of helping the Boys & Girls Club in this endeavor," said Eric Lowman, Senior Vice President and Beaufort City Executive. "We are excited to give back to a community program that serves the needs of so many children."
The BB&T volunteers are taking part in the company's third annual Lighthouse Project. The teams have each selected a project to assist a non-profit agency to complete during May or June to make a positive impact on the lives of people in need. BB&T hopes their efforts encourage others in the community to volunteer their time and support organizations such as the Boys & Girls Club of Beaufort.
During the Lighthouse Project, BB&T employees have donated nearly 100,000 hours to help improve the lives of more than 3 million people in 25 states. Employees overwhelmingly voted to bring back the initiative this year. For more information about the Lighthouse Project, go to www.bbt.com/bbt/lighthouseproject.

Q: crypt() breaks when migrating from PHP 5.2 to 5.4 I have a system running on PHP version 5.2.10 Unfortunately the original programmer misunderstood how crypt() was implemented.
$crypt = crypt(trim($cuPassword), CRYPT_BLOWFISH);
// The programmer thought this is how you configure a blowfish cipher

nb CRYPT_BLOWFISH has a value of zero on this machine.
This works in as much as it produces a random looking password hash  eg 0$oZ534I2VvSw
Today, I migrated the software to PHP 5.4.9 and discovered that $crypt becomes *0 , ie an error due to the invalid salt.
My problem is that I have a table of login passwords that I can no longer validate. My question: Is there going to be a way I can recreate the original cipher that ran under version 5.2? What hash was implemented when you passed "0" as a salt?

A: Your description doesn't really add up. In PHP 5.4.9, I tested this:
var_dump(crypt('hello', 0));

Output:
0$ny0efnQXFkE

Now in PHP 5.5, you'll get *0 when calling crypt('hello', 0). But that's okay! Because this is still true in PHP 5.5: this crypt('hello', '0$ny0efnQXFkE') == '0$ny0efnQXFkE'.
All you need to do is change how you generate your hash for new passwords. Validating existing passwords will continue to work.
For good measure, after people successfully log in, check if their hash begins with 0$. If it does, rehash the password (since they entered it, you know what it is) with the updated, proper crypt call.

A: I tried all valid two digit combinations (CRYPT_STD_DES) and I found that "0q" is equivalent (nearly).
PHP 5.2.10
    crypt(trim($cuPassword), CRYPT_BLOWFISH);
Result = 0$txv6CWBxJ9Y
PHP 5.4.9
    crypt(trim($cuPassword), '0q');
Result = 0qtxv6CWBxJ9Y
All I need to do is adjust the second character and I can match passwords again.

A: No, there's no way you can recreate the original cipher. Otherwise even a boy scout would be able to break blowfish.
Your best chance is to generate a random password for your users and hash it once again, then force them to change the password as soon as they login.

A: "$" is not a valid salt value according to crypt(3) so you need to find a crypt implementation that's equally broken as the one PHP/libc used to have :)
If verifying old passwords is enough, use Matthews answer, else try e.g. openssl which currently still seems to accept "0$" as salt:
$ echo -n "secret" | openssl passwd -crypt -salt '0$' -stdin
0$z.PXBBy6uY.


A report from the ACLU of Louisiana lays out a blueprint for cutting the state's prison population by 50 percent.
One of the recommendations is changing the multiple offender statute that substantially ramps up penalties for offenders who've committed the same crime previously. Executive Director Alanah Odoms Hebert says it's better to fix the cause of the crimes.
Hebert says multiple offender statues can result in decades of prison time for people accused of low level crimes.
Louisiana is one of two states where the mandatory sentence for second degree murder is life without parole, and one of only six states where life without parole is an option at all.
African Americans make up 33 percent of the state's population, but are 66 percent of the inmates. Hebert says other recommendations eliminating racial disparities in sentencing, and reducing or eliminating cash bond and other monetary penalties that hit the poor hardest.
The ACLU is backing LaPlace Representative Randal Gaines' bill that would reform the multiple offenders statute.

Schumacher confesses to doping

Gerolsteiner manager, doctors knew of practices, German claims

Stefan Schumacher has confessed to doping during his career, naming EPO, growth hormone and corticosteroids. He also laid blame on his former team Gerolsteiner, saying team manager Hans-Michael Holczer knew what was going on, and that the team doctors actively helped.

Schumacher takes a bitter-sweet victory in Serbia
Schumacher tested positive for EPO at both the 2008 Tour de France and the 2008 Olympics, and was subsequently given a two-year ban by the German Cycling Federation. Until today he has consistently denied ever having doped.
However, in the German news magazine Der Spiegel, he said "I used EPO, also growth hormone and corticosteroids." He started doping in his early twenties. "I went along with the system. I am not proud of it, but that's the way it was."
Schumacher rode for Team Gerolsteiner from 2006 to 2008, when he brought in his major victories, including two stages each at the Tour de France and Giro d'Italia, and time in the leader's jersey in both races. He also won the Amstel Gold Race in 2007.
Team manager Hans-Michael Holczer was not as innocent as he claimed, according to Schumacher. "He was aware of what was going on around him," the German rider said. In addition to Schumacher, his Gerolsteiner teammates Bernhard Kohl and Davide Rebellin also tested positive for EPO-CERA in 2008; Kohl at the Tour and Rebellin at the Olympics.
"The allegations concerning my connivance with Schumacher's practices are totally baseless," Holczer told Cyclingnews.
The Gerolsteiner team doctors was actively involved in the doping practices, Schumacher said. "Anybody could just take most of the things right from the medicine box. It was totally crazy."
After returning from his ban, Schumacher rode for Miche in 2010 and 2011. He has been with Christina Watches – Onfone since last season and brought in a number of victories. This season he won the opening stage of the Tour of Algeria and wore the leader's jersey for four stages before finishing the race third overall.
Schumacher and Holczer are scheduled to meet in a courtroom next month. German prosecutors have charged the rider with fraud, and deal with the three-month's salary he drew after testing positive but before the test results were announced.
Holczer indicated that Schumacher's confession was aimed at affecting this court case. "Schumacher has been charged with fraud in a district court. This charge came about after interviews with a lot of witness and is a 'criminal trial, not a civil case'," he told Cyclingnews. "Like many others from the team, I have been invited by the court to be a witness, and presumably a very important witness."


New York, NY, June 30, 2015 … In the aftermath of the shocking violence against Jews in Western Europe the past year, the level of anti-Semitic attitudes among the general population in France showed a dramatic decline, while Germany and Belgium registered significant reductions, according to a new poll from the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) released today.
The most pronounced difference was found in France – scene of the horrific terror attacks earlier this year targeting Jews and journalists – where the number of those expressing anti-Semitic attitudes plummeted from 37 percent in 2014 to 17 percent in 2015. Germany likewise experienced a decline from 27 to 16 percent, and Belgium from 27 to 21 percent. ADL polled an additional 500 respondents in each of these three countries to confirm the overall declines in anti-Semitic attitudes.
In the 2015 follow-up to its groundbreaking inaugural Global 100 Index survey released last year, ADL polled 10,000 adults on their attitudes and opinions toward Jews in 19 countries, including nine countries in Western Europe and six countries in Eastern Europe. The poll also includes new findings for Argentina, the United States, Iran and Turkey. The margin of error is +/- 4.4 percent in all countries, except the U.S., where the margin of error was +/- 3.2 percent.
Respondents who answered "probably true" to six or more of 11 negative stereotypes about Jews were deemed as holding anti-Semitic attitudes. The 11-question index has been used by ADL as a key metric in measuring anti-Semitic attitudes in the United States for the last 50 years.
Compared to the 2014 poll, concern about violence against Jews increased by 20 percent in France, 31 percent in Belgium, and 33 percent in Germany.
In France, Germany and Belgium, large majorities expressed solidarity with Jewish victims of violence. When asked whether, "violence against Jews in this country affects everyone and is an attack on our way of life," 77 percent agreed in France, 68 percent in Belgium and 78 percent in Germany.
The 2015 poll reported increases in anti-Semitic views beyond the margin of error in Romania (47 percent in 2015, up from 35 percent), in Italy (29 percent in 2015, up from 20 percent), and in The Netherlands (11 percent in 2015, up from 5 percent). Decreases in anti-Semitic views were found in Poland (37 percent in 2015, down from 45 percent), in Russia (23 percent in 2015, down from 30 percent, and in Ukraine (32 percent in 2015, down from 38 percent).
For the first time, the ADL poll measured Muslim attitudes in Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the U.K. An average of 55 percent of Western European Muslims harbored anti-Semitic attitudes. Acceptance of anti-Semitic stereotypes by Muslims in these countries was substantially higher than among the national population in each country, though lower than corresponding figures of 75 percent in 2014 for Muslims in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA).
Interviews were conducted in those regions with significant Muslim populations in each country. The margin of error for Muslims in each country is +/-9.8 percent, and for the combined Western European Muslim oversample for all six countries is +/-4 percent.
Most prevalent was the belief that "Jews have too much power in international financial markets" – an anti-Jewish canard affirmed by 70 percent of Western European Muslims.
On most conspiracy-related statements, scores of European and MENA Muslims showed little difference. On negative statements about Jewish character, e.g. "people hate Jews because of the way they behave" and "Jews think they are better than other people," European Muslims scored substantially lower than MENA Muslims.
France: 49 percent, compared to 17 percent overall.
ADL commissioned First International Resources to update the ADL Global 100 Poll of attitudes and opinions toward Jews. Fieldwork and data collection for this global opinion project were conducted and coordinated by Anzalone Liszt Grove Research.
The ADL Global 100 poll was made possible by a generous grant from New York philanthropist Leonard Stern.

Chanida water project near completion
By Editor News | July 26, 2017 - 13:37 | July 26, 2017 Community News
About 200 people in Chanida border in Chadiza District will soon be connected to water supply from EWSC, Eastern Water and Sewerage Company.
EWSC Managing Director Layton Kanowa, says the installation of water pumps and construction of kiosks and ablution blocks at a total cost of 15.7 million Kwacha, is expected to be completed in the next three weeks.
Mr. Kanowa says the project which is at 90 percent is aimed at providing more people with safe drinking water in the province.
Speaking when Chadiza Member of Parliament Salatiel Tembo toured the project yesterday, Mr. Kanowa says the company still needs support from government to connect more people, because the supply of the water in the area will attract more developers.
Mr. Kanowa says the company needs about 3 million kwacha to cover more than 450 people in Chanida area.
Mr. Kanowa further indicated that the company has a deficit of about 40 percent of potential customers in Eastern Province, who not connected to the utility company's water supply system.
And Chadiza Member of Parliament Salatiel Tembo says he will engage relevant authorities to lobby for resources for the completion of the project.
Mr. Tembo says the works done by the company will greatly help people in Chanida border area, who are having challenges in accessing safe drinking water.
He says more developmental projects are expected to be implemented due to the reliable supply of water by the utility company in the area.

City Council: Erickson, Markeson to step down

By Bethany Wesley
A reception for outgoing Bemidji City Councilors Nancy Erickson and Onen Markeson will precede the regular council meeting Monday night.
Cake and coffee will be served 6-6:45 p.m. Monday in the Council Chambers at City Hall. The public is invited.
Erickson, the Ward 5 representative, has served on the council for eight years. She was defeated in a mayoral bid for the council in November.
Markeson, the Ward 1 councilor, decided earlier this year to not seek re-election. He has served on the council for four years.
"I've always had an interest in government," Markeson said.
The two took different paths to land seats on the council.
After two unsuccessful bids for the Beltrami County Board, Erickson, who was on the city's planning commission, had decided against public office until Jim Heltzer, a Beltrami County board member, encouraged her to run for the City Council and offered his support. She did run and was elected the Ward 5 representative.
"There was no single reason for running - I ran because I wanted to serve," said Erickson, whose father was a legislator in Michigan. "I believe very strongly in giving back ... in public service."
Markeson went straight to the council, winning election on his first bid for office.
"I wanted to get involved," he said.
Markeson said the best part of his job was getting to know the people in the community.
"There's a lot of people in public service who are helping to do important things," he said. "I liked being able to help them out."
Markeson and his wife are semi-retiring to Lengby, where they own land. The couple already has planted a garden and seven apples trees, he said.
"We're going to be spending a lot of time out there," Markeson said.
Erickson brought to the council table a financial background. Also, having working for Beltrami County in administration and human services, she said she came in knowing a bit how local government works.
She said the past eight years on the council have been exciting. When Erickson was elected, she took her seat alongside newly elected Mayor Richard Lehmann and new councilors, Ron Johnson and Jerry Downs.
The council then was discussing the possibility of a half-cent sales tax for parks improvements. She also served on a committee that worked with the Department of Natural Resources on shoreline setbacks and height restrictions.
Ward 5 also had a deer problem and Erickson served on a committee that worked to address the issue. The third deer hunt was held this year.
Other projects Erickson helped work on include the outdoor ice-skating rink near the Bemidji Area Chamber of Commerce offices and the construction of a new warming house at Nymore Park.
She also served on a committee right after her election that met with investors and developers about the potential for Bemidji buying the south shore of Lake Bemidji for redevelopment. Erickson, who does not support the regional events center, has always supported the city's purchase of the south shore, but perhaps not all 136 acres.
The best part of her time on the council, Erickson said, was the work with her constituents.
"The most satisfying was the daily problems presented to me either by phone or in person," she said. "I was able to help people who had a problem solve that problem."
Onen Markeson


Deborah works in the field of psychology and has been writing poetry since her mid-teens. A nature lover who enjoys rambling all over the beautiful English countryside. A Liberated Sheep in a Post Shepherd World (2015) was her first poetry collection. At present Deborah is writing her second poetry book, "The Shepherd's Daughter" (2020) alongside writing "Poetry of the Year" (2019) a collection of monthly nature poems.
Please note all works on this website "The Liberated Sheep" are © Copyright and the intellectual property of Deborah Gregory. Do not share or use content from this website, in part or entirety, without giving full credit to the original work. For more information on her first collection please read: Journey of Love: How I Wrote My First Poetry Book.
Deborah, I feel profound gratitude for the work you are doing. I have shared your Animus Diet essays on FB so others may discover your journey – I hope this is ok?
"Amor Fati" What a beautiful avatar, I love its meaning! Thank you so much for sharing my Animus adventures (the beginning of a very long journey!) and for your encouraging words. I'm hoping to publish them all, with further insights and adventures, in the next year or so. Warm and wild blessings, Deborah.
Deborah has written her poems with bare boned honesty. I fell in to her footsteps and was moved by her words as she recounts her very own life journey. Deeply personal, incredibly brave. Her words touched me, I felt so much that she was sat beside me as I turned the pages of her life. I am amazed that this book has not been taken up by a major publisher.
Wow! Thank you so much Anja for your positively, glowing review! You've certainly lifted my spirits today and please know I'm thrilled that you're enjoying my poetry book. Writing and (self) publishing my first collection has been life-changing! What's more, I really enjoyed your recent comment (re: The Poet's Wife) so many thanks for heaping more wonderful praise on my work.
If perchance you're also interested in Carl Jung and Post-Jungian thought you'll find a few of my essays in the "Jungian Archives" category, including my four part "Animus Diet" and other Jungian themed work. Warm autumnal wishes, Deborah.
Highly recommended! 'A Liberated Sheep in a Post Shepherd World' is a book I keep next to my bed. Deborah Gregory's spiritual and sensual poems lead me through her unfolding life from girlhood to maturity and help me reflect on my own life path. She writes about childhood trauma with an unflinching, compassionate eye. She shares the joy and disappointments of motherhood and the challenges of love and loss. She writes about soul, spirit, trust, and betrayal. She writes about courage, forgiveness, redemption, love, and the passionate physical life. She makes me believe in second and third chances. As I soak in the rich symbolic imagery of these poems, Gregory's search for inner meaning opens deeper layers of reflection and meaning in me.
Thank you so much Elaine for your truly awe-inspiring review of my poetry book! I am deeply humbled and honoured to receive your glowing admiration, for I hold you as a writer in such high regard, therefore your words mean a great deal to me. Your kindness and compassion ring out like a clear, bright bell.
It is wonderful to hear that you keep my book close by and that it's helping you with your reflections on life. The book for me has followed my own profound metamorphosis and it is wonderful to hear that it's helping others on their journey too. Thank you for believing in me! With love and gratitude, Deborah.
You take us on a journey with each poem. Thank you. No fast food doggerel from your pen. There's years of fine dining here, a feast of unfurling as we follow the trail of your tasty words. The Hungry Fox, somewhere in a hedgerow near you.
Deborah, I found you on twitter and have been following your tarot poems ever since. I just wanted to say hi and let you know I love your work, immensely. Keep up with the beautiful poetry! Meghann W.
Hi Meghann, Wow! You've literally made my day!! That's so lovely of you, thank you so much for your encouraging words and a huge welcome to my poetry blog. I'll look out for you in the land of the little blue bird. Sending warm, early spring wishes to you, Deborah.
I read this cover to cover. Poetry at its finest – raw, passionate and full of truth. In a class all its own, Anna.
Thank you for your wonderful New Year message Anna and patience re Blurb! I'm thrilled that you enjoyed the book, it's more than any poet could ever ask for. Blessings, Deborah.
your book arrived yesterday. i have not been able to put it down. for poetry lovers and for those on the edge of loving poetry this collection has something for everyone. raw incandescent and full of heart gregory is an old soul with neoteric vision. her poems are lighting up my days and darkening my nights. this is the most brave and honest book i have ever read.
Thank you so much Suzie for your big-hearted review, and such wonderful praise. I'm truly humbled. I'm assuming that you're an e. e. cummings fan with your lower case letters. I'm so pleased you enjoyed my 'how to self-publish' article. I was totally amazed, that for the price of a book, writing dreams could be realised. I did come across a thread on Blurb re uploading books to sell on Amazon, will take another look for sure! Thinking about uploading poems to Sound Cloud. Bright spring wishes, Deborah.
Wow, in hardly any words at all you've totally made my day Benjamin! It's wonderful to meet yet another poetical alchemist here in the blogosphere. Thank you so much for your kind-hearted generosity, and for buying my book. Bright spring wishes, Deborah.
This is not the kind of poetry book that anyone can read lightly or indeed quickly. It is in every real sense the journal of a soul. Gregory's voice is unique. She does not fit into any writing tradition with any degree of comfort. Your heart will rise and your heart will fall. I urge the reader not to skip even one page. I stand in admiration at her courage and deep humanity. Patricia J Lockwood.
Thank you so much Patricia, I'm honoured by your words and sensed the deep humanity behind them. I love what you wrote about my book being 'the journal of a soul' as these words fit like a dream into what I hope my poetry book offers. Welcome to my website, where you'll find many published poems, including new work. Warm greetings, Deborah.
A Liberated Sheep in a Post Shepherd World – read it, loved it and devoured it all over again!
This book is filled with beautiful and heart-breaking poems. Reading it, I felt empowered, euphoric and cathartically heart-broken by turns. Definitely a poetry collection to be read by poets everywhere, particularly those who have ever struggled to overcome the pain of childhood abuse.
It's very rare I write a review, but I have been so moved by this book I felt I had too. Food for the soul. Amazing. Each poem really touched my life and helped me on a personal level deal with things that are sometimes hard to talk about. I found it healing and therapeutic.
This book surpassed my expectations – with 270 pages Deborah Gregory feeds us well.
It is beautiful, tragic and understated.
I am truly humbled by your generosity and touched beyond words. Thank you so much Harper for sharing your wonderful review, and for taking the time to let me know how my book has helped you on your journey. Breaking the silence on childhood suffering is often a long, rich, deep journey of discovery, recovery and love. Thank you for seizing the day, and making mine! Love and gratitude, Deborah.
Deborah Gregory is an awesome writer. I purchased a hardback copy of her poetry book and wasn't disappointed. I will treasure this book ad infinitum with its exquisite use of language, and heroic description of triumph over a difficult upbringing. This book is nothing short of brilliant.
Thank you so much Julie for your glowing praise and wonderful review. That really means a lot! It's simply wonderful to meet another 'poetical alchemist' on life's open road. A warm welcome to my poetry blog. I hope you enjoy! Greetings, Deborah.
I stumbled across Deborah's heart-pounding words when I needed them most. After many weeks of immersing myself in her poems, I decided to go ahead and purchase the book. A Liberated Sheep in a Post Shepherd World is something different compared to other books. It's a must read for anyone on the inner journey home. Very well presented, brave and honest writing. A wonderful debut collection I can't praise enough.
Thank you so much Picasso for your wonderful book review, truly appreciated. I'm so pleased that my poems spoke to you when needed, it's more than any poet could wish for! I have a feeling we've met online before, so thank you greatly for making the trip over to let me know. January is my month for poetry. Time to pull up a chair, light a fire and sit quietly with friends, old and new. Happy reading dear poet, many thanks once more.
To be honest I don't know what to say other than I'm utterly speechless!!! I've read a lot of poetry and this is definitely the best collection I've read in a long time. I value the chronological order of the poems. I'm buying this book again to take to a friend when I visit for Christmas. I think my dad would love this book with its classic 60's childhood, dark imagery, violence and unexpected love. A modern-day mythic tale, refreshingly honest and perfectly clear.
Wow! That's just wonderful Lily, thank you so much for your amazing review! I'm truly delighted that you're enjoying my poetry book. I appreciate that some of my poems, especially the earlier ones, are hard-hitting and at times harrowing to read.
In the beginning I wrote this book of poems just for myself and for my loved ones yet after self-publishing, the book seems to have taken on a life of its own. I'm overjoyed at your encouraging response. Warm winter blessings to you, Deborah.
Very moving. Usually I have difficulty with poetry but not with this collection. Extraordinary poems by a very brave lady. Brilliant and moving, though never self-pitying. Poetry that made me laugh, cry, pray, and hope yet incandescent with passion for life. Truth, acceptance and hope. An outstanding collection.
Am writing in tears, thank you so much Lizzie! I'm speechless … I'm a poet with no words just a full and bursting heart. Love and blessings, much gratitude, Deborah.
"A Liberated Sheep in a Post Shepherd World" was definitely worth adding to my poetry collection. It's a great book of poems that everyone should read. It's about life and what happens to us. Since the book's message was inspiring I bought another copy for my teenage daughter because it holds a lot of life lessons in it. I recommend this book to anyone who is looking for healing of their soul. The poems are powerful and insightful. Deborah Gregory is to be congratulated for providing us with a heart warming guide for advancing our souls.
Thank you so much James for your wonderful review. I'm totally thrilled that you've decided to find space on your shelves for my poetry book. What an amazing honour, many thanks dear poet! I sincerely hope that your daughter enjoys the poems too, some as you know, are not easy to read.
I love what you wrote about my poetry holding a 'lot of life lessons' I haven't stop smiling! What a terrific compliment you've presented me, that's so kind-hearted and generous of you! Warm greetings, Deborah.
Your book is "amazing" for many, many reasons, and here I'll mention just a few. Firstly, on an extremely practical level, it's a total privilege to be able to read the poetry you've written over the years from when you were an adolescent until now, especially as it describes a very personal and deeply challenging journey, which is where the second "amazing" comes in. I'm blown away by the strength you've found to come out of the black tunnel of your exceedingly difficult childhood – your poetry being a constant companion and one that took you by the hand through the worst of it, it seems. In the words of your poem Mother-Wound: "My poetry I am told – Comes out of this wound – This gaping hole – In the centre of my life." You're an inspiration to anybody who's living through a difficult life situation (emotional or physical violence, abuse, neglect, etc.) You show us that change "is" possible – no matter how tight the chains or how deep the wounds.
Your early poems speak of such pain and turmoil that they touched me very deeply – some left me speechless, unable and unwilling to simply carry on my day, out of respect for the experiences I had witnessed through the magic of your poet's pen. I also wished I could hug young Deborah and give her the warmth and love she deserved.
Using a wonderful array of imagery and reference points – including nature, goddesses and more abstract conceptualisations – your poems trace your path from this very dark beginning to a glorious rebirth – both in terms of your spirituality and the healing of the mother/child wound. "Free at last and at liberty to feast alfresco at the banquet of love" (Love in the Caves).
My plan is to dip back into your book and read the poems in a more random fashion. On this first read, I wanted to follow the order systematically as I felt it was important for me to follow your journey and the evolution of your ideas and language.
Finally, I refer to the resonance I feel with many of your thoughts. For example, when you say: "..it is futile of me to pretend I know where I am going" (The Way of the Poet) and "Those who live close to the soul more willingly than to the tribe, touch the magick of their being, one foot is rested in each world for the mystic to find her way" (The Soul is My Mother).
Thank you for lighting the way and encouraging others to do the same.
A thousand blessings to you my dear friend and a thousand more! If you could see young Deborah now, she's smiling, dancing, her face all aglow. Thank you so much! Namaste.
Absolutely Amazing Read! I am not normally a poetry reader, however, this book appealed to me, and I am so glad I purchased it. I cannot praise this book enough. Deborah Gregory has clearly put a lot of effort in the poems. They are very moving. I highly recommended it.
Thank you so much Carmen for your really great comment! I'm thrilled that you're enjoying my poetry book. Although painting is not my usual creative expression, over the years I have collected several books on the subject … often I sit with them, pen and notebook in hand, until inspiration and the flow of words begin. On rare occasions I even pick up my brushes! My poem 'Night Cafe' is an example of one of those moments. I'm so pleased that you've decided to give poetry a go! Blessings, Deborah.
Thanks Deborah! I just ordered a copy of your book for my boyfriend.
Wow! I'm literally over the moon … you've only just gone and made today 'Wonderful Wednesday!' Thank you so much Carmen, truly appreciated.
Just a thought, do look out at Blurb for offers as three weeks ago a friend bought my book with a 50% discount code that Blurb were promoting that weekend.
I'm truly delighted that you are enjoying the book Claire! 🙂 Thank you so much for your amazing gift of words! Wow, really … I'm truly humbled, in fact, I'm totally at a loss for words though my heart feels like it's exploding with happiness. Oh my goddess! A thousand blessings to you dear poet for your kind-hearted and generous companionship on this poetic journeying of Soul.
Hi Deborah, I just wanted to let you know that I treated myself to your poetry book and it arrived yesterday. I have to say it really is very professional looking and I'm amazed by the amount of your work that you've included. Reading your poetry and your life from 15 to 50 was quite incredible and definitely a page turner – I can see how your writing style has evolved over the years and how you yourself have grown with it. This is a wonderful, moving document of a life lived thus far…I would be so proud of being able to produce a book of this standard and depth. Congratulations – I love it! This is a book to be read and re-read many times.
Thank you so much Sophia for your great feedback on my book. It's so kind of you to leave this comment … wow, I'm over the 'super full, lunar eclipse, autumnal equinox' moon with happiness! Talk about poetry in motion, tonight's night-sky is going to be one of pure poetry and twinkling lights.
I had no idea what the finished result would look like until my copy arrived last week, I'm so impressed … it's just what I was hoping for. The ages fifteen to fifty felt right for me as I wanted to experience myself (age-ing to sage-ing … hopefully!) with each page and chapter turn. Oh my goddess you've made this poet so happy … thank you once again!
Done with your unparalleled grace and style. I have a virtual bottle of (expensive) Champaign to launch this new voyage into poetic and uncommon seas. Bon Voyage, dear poet and away we go!
Oh I'm soooo excited that you're here Steve, I'm whooping for joy! Here's to love and peace and freedom and virtual bubbles on my new poetry adventure. Away we go!

NSW Department of Customer Service appoints MessageXchange to provide e-invoicing for streamlined procure-to-pay services
20th of July 2021 –
MBIE recently completed the procurement process to secure an eInvoicing open syndicated agreement with a panel of access point providers for all of government to use.
MessageXchange has been accepted on to this panel.
The agreement covers the provision of eInvoicing capabilities and associated services, based on the global Peppol standard.
MBIE is the lead agency for the panel and the New Zealand PEPPOL Authority, with the responsibility of overseeing New Zealand's eInvoicing framework and adoption.
eInvoicing is forecast to save New Zealand businesses billions of dollars in transactional costs each year.1
According to MBIE, its goal is to increase the adoption of eInvoicing and this open syndicated agreement will make it easy for government agencies to implement and use eInvoicing.2 This will help government agencies in New Zealand adopt eInvoicing to meet their requirement to pay 95 per cent of domestic invoices within 10 business days to approved providers that meet a standard approach for eInvoicing.
It will also help Central Government agencies achieve the target of being eInvoicing 'receive' capable by 31 March 2022.
Acceptance on the panel follows MessageXchange being certified by MBIE as a Peppol Access Point service provider for eInvoicing in 2019. As part of the panel, government agencies looking for an eInvoicing service can trust that MessageXchange has been approved by MBIE for use by the New Zealand Government.
John Delaney, managing director, MessageXchange, said, "Helping government agencies streamline eInvoicing and increase their uptake is an important step in encouraging all organisations to adopt the digital platform for invoices, which has many benefits including cost savings, faster invoice payments, less time and errors, and efficiencies through automation.
"MessageXchange has strong expertise in providing eInvoicing solutions for government agencies. Through acceptance on to this panel, government agencies in New Zealand now have the added assurance that MessageXchange has been approved by the MBIE. MessageXchange looks forward to helping government agencies become eInvoicing enabled quickly and easily with data security and integrity top of mind."

Today we turned the clocks back an hour. As I'm writing this at 5:00pm, it's nearly pitch black outside, and I can't help but feel a little sad. I love natural light, especially when it means I can take pictures of dinner without having to use flash. That's no longer the case, so I'm determined to embrace fall even despite an associate at Trader Joe's in a Hawaiian shirt informing me today that pumpkin season is over.
I kindly wanted to tell him that Hawaiian shirt season was (long) over, but instead I bought myself a can of pumpkin and willed myself to make the best of the limited natural light, and bake pumpkin bars.
I decided to go out on a limb and try to lighten up Paula Deen's recipe by using whole wheat flour and coconut oil. It makes me feel like this is slightly healthier, and they make the bars so moist, especially when you get a bite with the cream cheese frosting. They take just 45 minutes and I promise that your coworkers will worship you if you bring a pan into the office.
Get yourself a hand or stand mixer and combine your wet ingredients together. Add in the dry and mix until just combined.
Scrape batter into a baking pan and bake until your house smells beyond delicious.
Whip up some cream cheese frosting, and spread onto that beautiful pan of pumpkin cake.
Preheat over to 350 degrees, and oil a 9×9 inch baking dish. You can use an 8×8, but note the bars will be thicker and may take a few minutes longer to cook.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, or in a regular bowl if you're using a hand mixer, combine eggs, sugar, coconut oil, and pumpkin puree. Mix on medium speed until light and fluffy, and don't worry if the batter looks curdled due to the coconut oil hardening.
Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, pie spice, and salt, and slowly add into the wet ingredients with the mixer on low speed. Mix until just combined.
Scrape batter into the baking dish, and bake for 25-30 minutes until knife inserted in center of dish comes out clean.
While bars are cooling, make the frosting. Using a stand or hand mixer, slowly whip all frosting ingredients together until light and fluffy.
Spread frosting onto cooled bars, cut into squares, and enjoy.

Parallel 38, You Will Be Missed
One of our favorite Charlottesville restaurants is closing its doors.
When it opened in 2014, Parallel 38 filled a void in Charlottesville dining by focusing exclusively on mezze, under the stewardship of a former manager of one of the nation's best mezze restaurants. It also boasted the area's largest selection of wines by the glass, spot-on barrel-aged cocktails, and an interior as transporting as any in town.
Add to that stellar food, and you've got a lock for The Charlottesville 29. And, we're not the only ones to heap praise. In 2014, The Washington Post's Tom Sietsema said Parallel 38's food was comparable to a three star restaurant in D.C. or New York. In 2015, Maya chef Christian Kelly ate the best thing he ate all year there. And, last year The BBQ Exchange's Craig Hartman likewise named a Parallel 38 dish the best of the year. Indeed, every year since it opened, it has made FSR Magazine's list of Top 100 Independent Restaurants in the country.
In the end, the restaurant's undoing was the same nagging challenge that dogged it throughout – its location at Stonefield, a shopping center some love but others love to hate. After the original owners sold the shopping center last year, Parallel 38 and the new owners could not reach agreement on a new lease. And, so it goes.
Personally, we will feel Parallel 38's absence most acutely on birthdays. I threw my wife a surprise birthday party there. She threw me a surprise birthday party there. Twice. (Does that make me trusting, or gullible?)
Beyond the labneh, pork belly, wine, cocktails, and naan a-la-minute, though, what we will miss most are owners Justin Ross, Steve Pritchard, and their staff. What a great crew, full of heart. Parallel 38 has been an enormous supporter of the Charlottesville community, with regular fundraisers for charitable causes around town. To boost bids for an already incredible donation for last year's Charlottesville 29 restaurant auctions, Ross, one of the nicest guys in the business, offered to volunteer at the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank for a number of hours in proportion to the winning bid.
The good news is that they're not gone quite yet. You've still got a few days to squeeze in your last visits. And, what better way to thank them for three great years and their tremendous community support than to send them out with a bang?
Parallel 38's last day is Sunday, January 29. Go!
Parallel 38 Auction Gets Even Better
The auction item for Parallel 38 is already extraordinary. With a wine class from an expert, an array of rare and special wines, and a tasting menu paired with wines, all for ten people, it is sure to be one of the most memorable dinners of the auction winner's life. And, every penny goes straight to the food bank, which makes it guilt-free indulgence. Bidding ends today! Now, Parallel 38 co-owner Justin Ross has upped the ante by promising to enhance the benefit to the area's hungry. Ross gets it. He wrote (emphasis added):
I hope everyone that wins one of the amazing auctions that The Charlottesville 29 is facilitating has the night of their lives. I hope all those who do bid but unfortunately do not end up winning enjoy the fun that an auction delivers. I also hope that everyone that read these posts, whether they chose to participate or not, saw another way to help our community. I hope that they observed local businesses coming together to help the surrounding community that ultimately supports our businesses. I hope it shows how important it is to make your neighborhood better than it was before you. Whether you choose to do so by supporting Literacy Volunteers of Charlottesville/Albemarle, Charlottesville-Albemarle SPCA, Blue Ridge Area Food Bank or any of the 1500 non profits in our area, you have have an impact on our community and make it a better place. For those of you that don't know me, I own Parallel 38 and would like to see this auction item raise as much as possible for our area's hungry. If Parallel's auction hits/exceeds $2000 not only will we have helped provide 8,000+ meals but I will volunteer one hour at the Food Bank for every 100 meals our auction provides. At $2000 that would be 80 hours, at $3000 that would be 120 hours and it will continue with no cap. So please have a great meal with amazing wines, make an impact in your neighborhood and put me to work. It's a WIN WIN WIN for everyone!
Pad Thai Auction Creates 4,400 Meals for Hungry
The Battle of New Ross took place during the Irish Rebellion of 1798. More than 200 years later, we had our own Ross battle yesterday right here in Charlottesville, this time over Pad Thai's incredible auction item: a Thai Street Food Feast. On the one side, there was Justin Ross, co-owner of Parallel 38. And, unbeknownst to him, on the other side, there was another Ross – PK Ross (no relation), owner and magician at Splendora's Gelato. In the end, after lots of bidding back and forth, PK prevailed with a $1,100 donation to the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank, which is enough to provide 4,400 meals to the area's hungry.
Thank you to the Rosses and Pad Thai for their generosity and support of the food bank. It's yet another example of how special Charlottesville's food community is: two food business owners fighting over who gets to give more money to the food bank, in order to enjoy an amazing meal donated by a third business owner.
Addendum: As if this were not great enough, after PK read this and learned that her bidding rival was Parallel 38's Justin Ross, she called him and offered two seats at her Pad Thai auction dinner.

UK to formulate Irish border proposals "in a few days" - Hunt
LONDON, Jan 31 (Reuters) - Britain will take a few days to formulate some proposals to put to the European Union in an attempt to resolve the issue of Irish border arrangements after Brexit, foreign minister Jeremy Hunt told BBC radio on Thursday.
"We will put those proposals together. It is going to take a few days to do that," he said.
"I happen to believe there is potential along all the different routes that have been discussed. But we need to put those together, make sure they meet the concerns the EU has expressed and then I think... we will have a proper discussion," he said.
Hunt said it was too early to say if an extension to the Brexit process would be required. Britain is due to leave on March 29. (Reporting by James Davey; editing by Guy Faulconbridge)

L'aérodrome de Saint-Cyr-l'École est un aérodrome francilien situé à  au sud-ouest de Paris, sur la commune de Saint-Cyr-l'École, dans le département des Yvelines. Il est exploité par le Groupe ADP.

Situation

Histoire
La vocation aéronautique de Saint-Cyr-l'École date du début du .

Le comte de La Vaulx fait construire en 1907 « aux portes de Saint-Cyr » un hangar pour abriter un dirigeable dit aéronat. La même année, Santos-Dumont poursuit les essais de son monoplan surnommé la Demoiselle, reliant Saint-Cyr à Buc à la vitesse de 90 km/h. La construction de l'aérostat à coque rigide de Joseph Spiess s'effectuera avec l'aide de l'État et de la société Zodiac dans ces mêmes hangars.

Trois ans plus tard, le dirigeable, La Liberté, fait une série d'ascensions ayant pour base un hangar démontable sur le terrain qu'occupera ultérieurement la base aérienne 272.

En 1911, l'institut aérotechnique (IAT) est créé par Henry Deutsch de la Meurthe pour effectuer « toutes recherches et essais concernant la technique des appareils en équilibre ou en mouvement dans l'air ».

Des recherches, entreprises à partir de 1909 par Gustave Eiffel, aboutissent en 1911 au dépôt d'un brevet qui concerne un dispositif (diffuseur placé en sortie de veine d'expériences) ayant pour but d'augmenter le rendement énergétique des installations destinées à créer des courants d'air artificiels (souffleries).

En , le capitaine Étévé est promu chef du centre aéronautique de Saint-Cyr-l'École : l'aviation et l'aérostation sont regroupées sous ses ordres. Le terrain en bordure de la « route aux cochons » (l'actuelle rue du Docteur-Vaillant) est retenu, ainsi que la caserne Charles-Renard, destinée à recevoir les pilotes.

En 1913, le premier groupe d'aérostation se trouve à Saint-Cyr-l'École. De nombreux essais de dirigeables sont effectués, des « saucisses » sont montées dans les ateliers de la base où beaucoup d'ouvrières de la commune sont employées à l'entoilage. La même année, le premier dirigeable à carcasse rigide, le Spiess, est construit par la société Zodiac.

En , au début de la Première Guerre mondiale, le camp de Mourmelon est replié à Saint-Cyr-l'École et pendant la guerre, le champ d'aviation devient un énorme atelier et un centre de réparation des appareils endommagés qui arrivent par trains entiers. Quatre mille personnes, civils et militaires y travaillent en 1917.

En , durant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, les bombardements massifs des alliés détruisent les installations militaires et la ville. À partir de 1946, la base est amputée de son aérodrome, lequel est cédé au ministère des Travaux publics et des Transports et devient géré par Aéroports de Paris.

L'aérodrome aujourd'hui
Avec  répartis sur  et une école de formation hélicoptère, l'aérodrome affiche chaque année plus de . Ceux-ci sont constitués uniquement de trajets privés (mouvements non commerciaux) et sont très dépendants de la météorologie, qui peut rendre impraticable les pistes en herbe lors des périodes pluvieuses et une partie de l'hiver.

Q: HttpSessionListener in Google Guice web application I need to perform an action, which will access items in the ServletContext, when the Guice Servlet session expires. (Why? To go through open websocket connections for the session to be destroyed and close them; these connections are kept in the ServletContext.)
To achieve this in the basic Servlet web application, one would implement an HttpSessionListener and hook into the sessionDestroyed method.
How would one achieve this for a web application that uses Google Guice for dependency injection?
Recall the requirement to be able to access ServletContext; I already encountered this forum conversation, but didn't find it that helpful.

A: There is no 'Guice way' to add session listeners. Sadly. But there's no problem in accessing the servlet context from session listeners.
Register session listener:
public class MyServletConfig extends GuiceServletContextListener {
    private Injector    injector;

    @Override
    public void contextInitialized(final ServletContextEvent servletContextEvent) {
        injector = Guice.createInjector(new MyAppModule());

        registerSessionListeners(servletContextEvent.getServletContext(), injector);

        super.contextInitialized(servletContextEvent);
    }

    private void registerSessionListeners(final ServletContext servletContext, final Injector injector) {
        servletContext.addListener(injector.getInstance(WebsocketCloser.class));
    }

    @Override
    protected Injector getInjector() {
        return injector;
    }

}

Access servlet context is session listener:
public class WebsocketCloser implements HttpSessionListener {
    @Override
    public void sessionCreated(final HttpSessionEvent httpSessionEvent) {
        // no-op
    }

    @Override
    public void sessionDestroyed(final HttpSessionEvent httpSessionEvent) {
        // do cleanup: httpSessionEvent.getSession().getServletContext();
    }
}

May I apologise for appearing to make a for sale posting as my first action. I have lurked for years and I thought I had an account but apparently not.
This is the original X100 that started the Fuji retro roll.
About 4 years ago I held one and placed my order the next day. I used it for about 80% of my photographs using my X-Pro for the other 20%. This camera just takes photographs. It takes technically good photographs leaving you to add the creativity.
The ONLY reason I'm selling is because I bought the X100F - which if you can afford it you should buy, today, now.
That said I could have used the X100 for another 4 years quite happily. A3+ prints no problem.
The original battery with three third party ones.
A third party charger as the Fuji one broke.
A spare screen protector as I made a mess of fitting the original one - as you can see there are bubbles. So you can fit the replacement, I just lived with it. Been fitted from day one.
Lens and mechanicals are all fine, it just works.
I will try and find the CD and cable that came with it.
No real scuffs etc. - at least I can't see any.
It was bought as refurbished from Fuji UK which I usually do because then you know a real technician has examined it and you get a better price.
Ideally we meet and exchange cash but anything is possible.
Delivery will be extra if by post or courier, but at cost.
I'm hoping to get £300 but you can make an offer.

Navigation between different screens and apps is a core part of the user experience. The following principles set a baseline for a consistent and intuitive user experience across apps. The Navigation component is designed to implement these principles by default, ensuring that users can apply the same heuristics and patterns in navigation as they move between apps.
Note: Even if you aren't using the Navigation component in your project, your app should follow these design principles.
Fixed start destination
Every app you build has a fixed start destination. This is the first screen the user sees when they launch your app from the launcher. This destination is also the last screen the user sees when they return to the launcher after pressing the Back button. Let's take a look at the Sunflower app as an example.
Figure 1: The List Screen is the Sunflower app's start destination.
When launching the Sunflower app from the launcher, the first screen that a user sees is the List Screen, the list of plants in their garden. This is also the last screen they see before exiting the app. If they press the Back button from the list screen, they navigate back to the launcher.
Note: An app might have a one-time setup or series of login screens. These conditional screens should not be considered start destinations because users see these screens only in certain cases.
Navigation state is represented as a stack of destinations
When your app is first launched, a new task is created for the user, and app displays its start destination. This becomes the base destination of what is known as the back stack and is the basis for your app's navigation state. The top of the stack is the current screen, and the previous destinations in the stack represent the history of where you've been. The back stack always has the start destination of the app at the bottom of the stack.
Operations that change the back stack always operate on the top of the stack, either by pushing a new destination onto the top of the stack or popping the top-most destination off the stack. Navigating to a destination pushes that destination on top of the stack.
The Navigation component manages all of your back stack ordering for you, though you can also choose to manage the back stack yourself.
Up and Back are identical within your app's task
Figure 2: The Up and Back buttons
The Back button appears in the system navigation bar at the bottom of the screen and is used to navigate in reverse-chronological order through the history of screens the user has recently worked with. When you press the Back button, the current destination is popped off the top of the back stack, and you then navigate to the previous destination.
The Up button appears in the app bar at the top of the screen. Within your app's task, the Up and Back buttons behave identically.
The Up button never exits your app
If a user is at the app's start destination, then the Up button does not appear, because the Up button never exits the app. The Back button, however, is shown and does exit the app.
When your app is launched using a deep link on another app's task, Up transitions users back to your app's task and through a simulated back stack and not to the app that triggered the deep link. The Back button, however, does take you back to the other app.
Deep linking simulates manual navigation
Whether deep linking or manually navigating to a specific destination, you can use the Up button to navigate through destinations back to the start destination.
When deep linking to a destination within your app's task, any existing back stack for your app's task is removed and replaced with the deep-linked back stack.
Using the Sunflower app again as an example, let's assume that the user had previously launched the app from the launcher screen and navigated to the detail screen for an apple. Looking at the Recents screen would indicate that a task exists with the top most screen being the detail screen for the Apple.
Figure 3: User navigation through the Sunflower app and the resulting back stack.
At this point, the user can tap the Home button to put the app in the background. Next, let's say this app has a deep link feature that allows users to launch directly into a specific plant detail screen by name. Opening the app via this deep link completely replaces the current Sunflower back stack shown in figure 3 with a new back stack, as shown in figure 4:
Figure 4: Following a deep link replaces the existing back stack for the Sunflower app.
Notice that the Sunflower back stack is replaced by a synthetic back stack with the avocado detail screen at the top. The My Garden screen, which is the start destination, was also added to the back stack. This is important because the synthetic back stack must be realistic. It should match a back stack that could have been achieved by organically navigating through the app. The original Sunflower back stack is gone, including the app's knowledge that the user was on the Apple details screen before.
The Navigation component supports deep linking and recreates a realistic back stack for you when linking to any destination in your navigation graph.

November 16th, 2006 (Open-Ended)
Schedulue
Wed & Sat 2 pm
Sun 3 pm
Wed through Sat 8pm
The production is another great one of Disney's productions in New York. Based on the hit movie by the same name, The show is great entertainment, especially for children. Opened at the New Amsterdam Theater in mid October this year, the musical on Broadway, has new songs added, along with the songs from the original movie. It is based on the very unique character created by Pamela L. Travers, in her series of books. Mary Poppins arrives as a nanny at Number 17, Cherry-Tree Lane to take charge of the Banks children - Jane, Michael, and the baby twins, John and Barbara - and changes their life forever.
Mary Poppins is showing at the New Amsterdam Theater, which is one of the oldest on Broadway. Built by Abraham Lincoln Erlanger and Marcus Klaw, and designed by architects Herts and Tallant, the New Amsterdam Theater opened in late October 1903, and was one of the most majestic of all Broadway theaters. Purchased by The Walt Disney Company in 1993, it was restored to its former glory after extensive renovations in April 1997. Disney tried to ensure that the Theater's essential architecture, elaborately painted proscenium, ornate friezes, and sculptured terra-cotta balustrades, etc. were preserved as much as possible.
This is the theater where your Broadway Mary Poppins tickets will take you for the show. You can buy your tickets from the box office for seats in the Orchestra section, on the Mezzanine, and on the Balcony through cash, American Express card, Visa, and MasterCard.
The standard rates for the Broadway Mary Poppins tickets at the box office are $20, $40, and $60 in the Balcony, $80 and $110 in the mezzanine, and $110 in the orchestra section. Handicap accessible seats can also be sourced through the box office. Such seats are available in particular sections in the orchestra and the balcony.
Tickets For The Show
Of course, you can buy your Mary Poppins tickets through the theater's box office, and at face value. But the problem with popular shows, such as Mary Poppins, is that after waiting in line for hours on end, you are still not sure of being able to procure your tickets. In addition to this, people who are on a short visit to New York, and would like to take in a Mary Poppins show, would not be in a position to procure tickets.
We have extensive contacts in the industry to be able to procure your Broadway Mary Poppins tickets for the shows of your choice. You just need to contact our staff, and leave the rest to us. You will have to pay a little more over the face value of the tickets to enable us to cover the cost of procuring your Broadway Mary Poppins tickets.
