Work of shop volunteers recognised with Unsung Heroes of the Vale Award
Shop stalwarts, Bob and Pat Earl, have been recognised for their long-standing commitment to Radley Village Shop with an Unsung Hero Award from the Vale of White Horse District Council. The award was presented by Councillor Reg White, chairman of the Council, at a celebration lunch at the Beacon in Wantage on Saturday 4th November. Pat was unfortunately unable to be present and so Bob accepted the certificate and commemorative glass plaque on their behalf. Bob and Pat were nominated by Radley Parish Council for their major contribution to the success of Radley Village Shop.
Speaking after the event, Bob said that they saw the award as recognition of the hard work of all the volunteers at Radley Village Shop, emphasising that it was a joint effort by everyone involved.
Bob and Pat work regular shifts at the shop and are both members of the Shop Management Committee. Bob has been chairman since June 2011. He managed the project to fit out the shop before it opened in May 2007 and has been the shop's maintenance co-ordinator ever since. Pat has been a volunteer since the shop opened and a committee member since January 2009. She is one of the two operations managers who support the shop's full-time manager, John Goodenough, and take on responsibility for his key tasks when he is on holiday or off sick.

Don't forget your reusable grocery tote — Styrofoam containers and plastic bags are banned in all four MDI towns
Robert F. Bukaty | AP
A coffee cup made from polystyrene foam, commonly known as Styrofoam, lies on the side of a road, Wednesday, May 1, 2019, in Augusta, Maine. Gov. Janet Mills signed a bill into law Tuesday, April 30 making Maine one of the first states to ban single-use containers made from polystyrene foam.
By Bill Trotter, BDN Staff • May 15, 2019 1:00 am
Updated: May 15, 2019 10:10 am
With two separate votes this past week, all four towns on Mount Desert Island have now banned commercial distribution of single-use plastic retail shopping bags and polystyrene takeout food containers.
On Monday, voters in Tremont heavily favored both bans, according to Christopher Saunders, Tremont's town manager. The plastic bag ban was approved 126-39, while voters approved a polystyrene ban by a 114-37 ballot vote, Saunders said.
The bans go into effect in Tremont on Oct. 21, Saunders said. Last month the Legislature approved a statewide ban on polystyrene food containers, but that ban does not go into effect until 2021.
The bans are seen as environmental measures that will reduce the amount of plastic that gets into the environment, especially into the oceans, where the substances break into ever smaller pieces and then are ingested by fish and other sea life.
On Tuesday, May 7, residents in the town of Mount Desert considered the same proposals and also voted in favor of the bans, according to a report in the weekly Mount Desert Islander newspaper. The bans went into effect in that town the following day, according to the report.
The two other towns on MDI, where most of Acadia National Park is located and which attracts millions of tourists every summer, already have adopted bans on plastic shopping bags and polystyrene. The Bar Harbor Town Council voted in January to adopt such bans, while Southwest Harbor approved identical bans last November.
Restrictions or bans on plastic shopping bags and polystyrene food containers also have been enacted in Bath, Blue Hill, Belfast, Brunswick, Cape Elizabeth, Damariscotta, Falmouth, Freeport, Kennebunk, Portland, Saco, South Portland, Topsham, York and Rockland.
Bangor's city council voted Monday night to ban polystyrene, known commonly as Styrofoam, but has not banned plastic shopping bags.

10 Questions with Museum of Making Music executive director
Dec. 4, 2015 6 AM PT
Carolyn Grant spent her early childhood on both the east and west coasts of the United States, as well as overseas. Following the untimely death of her father, a highly decorated U.S. Marine colonel, she moved to Central America where she witnessed her mother build a career as a renowned archaeologist and eminent professor.
Grant was a key player in envisioning and ensuring the future of her family's historic Spanish colonial home; she participated in establishing the philanthropic donation of the home to a Guatemalan university, whereby the home will be preserved as a museum and educational center for many years to come.
From a very early age Grant was deeply involved in dance and music and excelled in academic studies. Soon after moving to San Diego she found her ideal employment at the Museum of Making Music in Carlsbad, supporting the founding director. Since becoming executive director in 2000, she has overseen the curation of numerous one-of-a-kind exhibitions, developed highly-regarded museum programming for youth and adults, presented innovative concert series and participated in meaningful partnerships.
In 2011 she led the museum through a major renovation that incorporated state-of-the-art interactive experiences into the museum galleries. Over the past decade, Grant has carved out a unique niche and focus for the Museum of Making Music, the only museum of the music products industry, and the only museum worldwide that focuses on the cycle of music making — the making, selling and using of musical instruments and products.
Grant, an Encinitas resident, has played piano since childhood and began her study of the cello as an adult. She is committed to encouraging others to learn the instrument of their dreams — at any age — as she is a devout believer in the power of active music making to maintain or improve mental, physical and emotional well-being, as well as satisfy the innate human desire to communicate and create.
What brought you to Encinitas?
We moved to Encinitas to be closer to work and to live in a beautiful area.
If you could snap your fingers and have it done, what might you add, subtract or improve in Encinitas?
I would snap my fingers to create an additional 24 hours so I could have more time to enjoy the beauty and lifestyle that Encinitas offers.
Who or what inspires you?
I am inspired by people who pursue work that they love for the betterment of themselves as well as the people and the world around them.
If you hosted a dinner party for eight, who (living or deceased) would you invite?
Ludwig van Beethoven, Franz Joseph Haydn, Curtis Mayfield, Michel de Montaigne, Pema Chodron, Ellen DeGeneres, Jimmy Fallon and my husband. With this group, the conversation could center on music, philosophy, life and have a humorous edge.
What are your favorite movies?
1958: "Auntie Mame" with Rosalind Russell
1984: "This Is Spinal Tap"
1959: "Hiroshima Mon Amour" by director Alain Resnais, with screenplay by Marguerite Duras
1946: Jean Cocteau Film "La Belle et la Bête"
What's the most challenging aspect of what you do, and what's the most rewarding?
The most challenging aspect of what I do is trying to figure out the best way to maximize the limited time one has in a day, a week, a month, a life. The most rewarding aspect of what I do at the Museum of Making Music is to witness a person of any age connecting to themselves and to others through music.
I play music with friends and take music lessons.
What is it that you most dislike?
Intentional cruelty against any living being.
What do you hope to accomplish next?
One of our next projects at the Museum is to publish a book sharing visitor comments about the power of music and music making in their lives. These testimonials are so powerful that I'd like them to be available for more people to see.
What is your motto or philosophy of life?
I don't really have a motto for life, and my philosophy is hard to put into words. I do like, however, the phrase written by Voltaire in the 18th century, "Il faut cultiver notre jardin." While its literal meaning is something along the lines of "One must tend to our own garden," it has many interpretations.

Q: Why widget.pack(side=Left) puts new widget to the right? (old title: How to properly delete cavas item?)
My proplem is that everytime i want to load a new image onto my canvas and delete the old one it puts the new image beside the space where the old one was before.
My code looks like this:
def load_to_canvas(fname, canvas):
    img = Image.open(fname)
    canvas.imgph = ImageTk.PhotoImage(img)
    l = Label(canvas, image=canvas.imgph)
    l.photo = canvas
    l.pack(side=LEFT)

I tried various options like putting one of these on top of the load_to_canvas function:
canvas.delete('all')
canvas.get_tk_widget.delete('all')
l.pack_forget()

or setting the variables to nothing.
My Canvas is declared with these functions:
def create_canvas(self, canvasframe):
    canvasframe.canvas = Canvas(canvasframe, width=200, height=200)
    canvasframe.canvas.pack(expand=1, fill=BOTH)
    return canvasframe.canvas

def create_canvasframe(self):
    canvasframe = Frame(self)
    canvasframe.grid(row=1, column=0, columnspan=2, rowspan=4,
                        padx=0, sticky=E+W+S+N)
    return canvasframe

As you will probably see, I am quite new to Tkinter. My problem, to be specific, is that the old picture is deleted, but the new one not put on top of it, but next to it.
EDIT:
I found the problem. It is the packing of the label (last line in 'def load_to_canvas' ) to the leftmost space. Somehow even after deleting the old image the leftmost position for the new one was still right of the old one. Changed it to an absolute position with 'grid.(row=0, column=0, sticky=E+W+S+N)' and it works fine.
That makes the problem i asked for in the headline not accurate anymore, so I changed it. I hope thats fine.

Collaboration and Companies
Rehearsal Tools of the ASC – Companies
"O, there be players that I
have seen play, and heard others praise"
-Hamlet, Hamlet III.ii.35
Acting companies were formed in Elizabethan England as a way of regulating performances throughout the city. The primary purpose of playing was to please the monarch, and as a way of maintaining appropriate conduct on stage, the Privy Council of England ordered that a "license hath been granted unto two companies of stage players retained unto us, the Lord Admiral and Lord Chamberlain, to use and practice stage plays, whereby they might be the better enabled and prepared to show such plays before her Majesty as they shall be required at times meet and accustomed, to which end they have been chiefly licensed and tolerated as aforesaid."
These two companies were licensed in order to diminish the amount of rogues roaming about the city, as actors were considered nothing better than vagabonds. Contemporary discourse about players commented that "the statute hath done wisely to acknowledge him a rogue, for his chief essence is, a daily counterfeit: he hath been familiar so long with out-sides, that he professes himself, (being unknown) to be an apparent gentleman. But his thin felt, and his silk stockings, or his foul linen, and fair doublet, do (in him) bodily reveal the broker: so being not suitable, he process a motley." A company required a patron who was a noble birth in order to advocate for them to the city officials for the rights to be able to perform. Professional players were servants to their patron, as can be seen on various quarto publications where they are mentioned.
The most famous companies in Elizabethan England consisted of 8 to 10 members at any given time (with a shifting number of sharers), 4 boys for women's roles, as many as 10 hired men for supernumeraries, a bookkeeper who looked after the playbooks and a tireman who managed the costumes. Many companies also employed gatherers who worked as doormen and took in money at various points in the playhouse, while others designated that role to one already in the company.
In 1583, The Queen's Men had twelve sharers, but by the 1590s, most companies in London had eight to ten sharers at most. The sharers would cover the company's capital which included any assets that the company owned (costumes and props), the playhouse rent, and running costs for the company. A strong company with eight sharers would be valued at around £500, with each sharer expected to pay a rate determined by the company's success at the time, usually around £50 to £80. Buying into a company identified a commitment to the company and allowed the person to share in the company's profits and losses.
The Lord Chamberlain's Men was formed in 1594 with eight sharers, each paying for one full share (part shares were later available): George Bryan, Richard Burbage, John Heminges, Will Kemp, Augustine Phillips, Thomas Pope, Will Shakespeare, and most likely Will Sly. George Bryan lasted only a few years and was replaced by Henry Condell in 1597. Young boy actors often housed with their masters, just as boys who formally apprenticed to members of London's livery companies did. John Heminges registered ten boys throughout his career. Company management allowed players to act as their own managers and financers, "creating the only effective democracy of its time in totalitarian England." While eight to ten men at most were sharers, more players were included in each company. Fifteen players performed Julius Caesar at the Globe in 1599.
Companies would purchase a play from a playwright and adapted it as they pleased it. The Master of the Revels needed to license the play text in order to censor it of any profanities or politically sensitive information. This was a way for monarchs to control the information put into plays. An example of this is in many plays, where "zounds" exists as a result of the censors taking out "God's wounds." The "resident poet" of the Lord Chamberlain's Men, William Shakespeare, brought the company much success. The fact that "the Chamberlain's acquired so many of his pre-1594 plays is either a tribute to his self-esteem and the high value he put on his own plays, or to his commercial acumen in keeping possession of them himself" as actors typically sold them to the company performing the play and had no other rights over their plays.
In 1596, a license was presented to the Bailiff at Guild Hall, signed by 31 residents of Blackfriars, which stated: "now all players being banished by the Lord Mayor from playing within the cittie by reason of the great inconveniences and ill rule that followeth them, they now thincke to plant them selves in liberties." Performing, often considered lewd and immoral by many in London at the time, was banned from the city. Performing, often considered lewd and immoral by many in London at the time, was banned from the city. In 1598 the Lord Chamberlain's Men, who had been playing at the Theatre in Shoreditch in north London since 1594, lost the lease to the land on which the playhouse sat. Over Christmas, they dismantled the building and moved south of the Thames to a liberty known as Southwark to build the Globe, which they built in 1599 using materials from their former playhouse. The company played at the Globe in Southwark in south London exclusively until 1608, at which time they acquired Blackfriars and split performances between the two playhouses.. Financially, the company flourished, bringing in their fiscal investment in the Globe in just two years.
Acting companies typically performed up to 35 plays a year and many were well known in London. In remembering the playhouse activity in 1609, James Wright recalled "there were in being all these playhouses at the same time. The Blackfriars, and Globe on Bankside a winter and summer house belonging to the same company called the King's Servants […] all these companies got money and lived in reputation, especially those of the Blackfriars who were men of grave and sober behavior." Often clowns or tragedians were well known for their parts as well. Will Kempe was a famous clown, known for playing Dogberry in Much Ado About Nothing and Peter in Romeo and Juliet; while Richard Burbage was known for his tragic roles, such as Richard III, Hamlet and Othello.
While the company was well known, they were not liked by all. Various anti-theatrical tracts published during this time noted the concerns that many Puritans had about the theater. William Prynne stated that players "corrupt the minds, the manners, the virtuous education of those gentlemen […] by drawing them on idleness, luxury, incontinency, prophanesse, and those other dangerous vices which plays and playhouses oft occasion." While his comments are extremely strong, it is important to remember the tension between playhouse and pulpit at this time. Several Puritans were frustrated with the fact that many in their congregation were going to the theaters instead of going to church, eventually leading to the closing of the theaters in 1642. These comments are coming from this platform and are by no means consistent with everyone's views at this time, but it is important to note the tension surrounding the acting companies during the early modern period.
LINKS TO ASC
The ASC has historically hired companies of eleven to sixteen actors who performed in repertory in three seasons. The Actors' Renaissance Season featured only actors with experience working on the Blackfriars stage with self-directing their shows with limited rehearsal time. The Touring company rehearsed in the summer and traveled to universities and performing arts venues during the school year, returning to play on the Blackfriars stage as their fellows in the Summer and Fall seasons rehearsed. The Summer and Fall troupes would begin performing in late June and continue into November. As ASC moves into a post-pandemic world, the company is moving ever-closer to Shakespeare's practices regarding company management and collaboration. Working as a team, 4 actor-managers, our founder and senior-advisor, a producer, and the education programming team are joining forces to determine the season structure, titles, and additional programming to support the work on stage

Aerosol Properties over Ranchi Measured from Aethalometer
Manoj Kumar, Kumari Lipi, S Sureshbabu, N C Mahanti
Abstract: Continuous and near-real-time measurements of the mass concentration of Aerosol Black Carbon (BC) were carried out 1st to 31st July 2010 of rainy season and compare with data of July-2010 to March-2011 using an Aethalometer (model AE-31 of Magee Scientific, USA). The principle of the Aethalometer is to measure the attenuation of a beam of light transmitted through a filter, while the filter is continuously collecting an aero-sol sample. This measurement is made at successive regular intervals of a time base period has been. the BC mass concentration is estimated by measuring the change in the transmittance of a quartz filter tape, on to which the particles impinge. The instrument was operated at a time base of 5 min, round the clock with a flow rate of 4-liter min–¹, to study the impact of rainy season on black carbon concentrations over a typical urban environment namely Ranchi, India. BC concentrations were high during morning (0600 to 0900 h) and evening hours (1900 to 2300 h) compared to afternoon hours. During early morning hours, high values of BC are attributed to the turbulence set-in by the solar heating which breaks the night-time stable layer and aero-sols in the nocturnal residual layer are mixed up with those near the surface.

Sigourney Weaver: Enemy to Aliens, Friend to Animals
By Margaret Manning • UPDATED: February 17, 2019 • Lifestyle
Sigourney Weaver is best known for her role as Ripley in the Aliens series. But, her role as Midwesterner Fossey in Gorillas in the Mist is probably more relevant for today's news.
In the film, Weaver plays Midwesterner Fossey, a zoologist and primatologist, who travels to Africa to study the local gorilla populations. Fossey's objective research mission becomes complicated when she is forced to confront a group of poachers who are threatening the gorillas.
Weaver, as always, was incredibly convincing in the role, creating a female character that was strong, intelligent, passionate and believable. For her performance, Weaver was nominated for an Oscar and won a Golden Globe.
Now, She Has a New Award – Less Golden, but, Just as Important!
Weaver recently received a very different type of award – one that recognizes her role in real-life as an ambassador for animal rights. She has received the Indianapolis Zoo's Jane Global Alexander Wildlife Ambassador Award.
In a recent interview with IndyStar, said that, when it comes to her love for animals, "The crowning event certainly for me was playing Dian Fossey and spending months over in Rwanda. I spent almost every other day with her study group in very intimate surroundings. That experience, if you only have it for one day can change your life, let alone spending two months."
In addition to drawing attention to the plight of gorillas in Africa, in 2006, she also presented to the United Nations General Assembly on the damage caused by deep-sea trawling.
At age 67, Weaver is still going strong. On the screen, she is working on several new films, including Avatar 2. Off the screen, she is a passionate supporter of the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund International, Red Cross and Small Steps Project.
Did you see Gorillas in the Mist? What did you think of it? What is your favorite Sigourney Weaver film of all time? Please join the conversation!

Q: Chromium not remembering all tabs and running slow I've installed Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit and Chromium 34.0.1847.116 Ubuntu 14.04 aura (260972).  I've noticed a few problems...
1) Despite having the setting "Continue where you left off" checked, only some of the tabs are reopened when I start up Chromium.  I typically have about 10 tabs open when I close Chromium so I can't see that being some limit - hasn't been a problem in the past.
2) If I right click a link and open in a new window, that window can take up to a minute to load the page and once loaded, runs sluggishly (scrolling is slow or if a YouTube video, runs as though I've got poor bandwidth).
I've removed Chromium (apt-get purge) and then also removed the directories ~/.cache/chromium and ~/.config/chromium and then did a reinstall of Chromium but to no avail.  Interestingly after running what should be a clean Chromium, I hit CTRL + H and all my browser history was there...
FWIW, I also tried changing video drivers - switching from Nouveau to Nvidia (all three versions which available to me) and the problem persists.
I finally decided to reinstall 14.04 and the problem returns.
I've got the pepper flash plugin installed so I don't know if that has something to do with this, although this is the first time I've (knowingly) installed this plugin.  I've never had this problem on 13.10 with Chromium and have had no problems with Firefox.  I also have the webmail ad blocker plugin installed but that's never given me trouble in the past either.
Any one else having a similar issue?  Any ideas on what to try next...?
Update: I've reported a bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1310849
Thanks in advance,
Bernard.

A: I started having this problem after the switch to the Aura builds and haven't found a real answer yet. As a workaround, you can downgrade to Chromium from 13.10 by installing this package. Find the deb package to download at the bottom of the page, select the one for the architecture you're running.


The 'International Seminar on Mixed Migration in Southeast and East Asia', organized by UN-ACT and Mahidol University, discusses a series of papers presented by around 30 panelists representing academia, government, civilsociety and the UN from around the world, in 7 thematic sessions on various aspects of mixed migration in the region.
The response has been enormous and the 100 available seats filled up in no time, so we have had to close the registration window. We may still be able to acccommodate a few people, but please inquire about availability at salaya.trafficking.seminar@gmail.com.
The good news is, however, that we are making a professional livestreamavailable for the event here on our Facebook page. You can watch the entire program live and engage in the discussions by raising questions or thoughts in the comment box, which we will be sure to pass on to the discussants at the event. You can also engage in the event on Twitter via mixedmigration.
For more information on the program including the agenda and abstracts of the papers to be presented and discussed, visit our event site.
Accompanying the proceedings will be the exhibition 'Behind Tin Walls' by Thai photographer Visarut Sankham that documents the lives of migrant workers in Bangkok who reside in temporary, tin-walled structures as they build the city's skyline. The showing has been made possible with financial support from the International Labour Organization's Triangle in ASEAN program.
We are excited about next week's event and look forward to having you all join. Please share this announcement widely among your networks!

There are over 30,000 sorts of orchids, and virtually 4 times as many orchid hybrids. As a result of the pure orchid flowers have so many distinct variations, their silk counterparts are also as quite a few. One trait all orchids share is a leaf pattern that's semi-symmetrical. The actual flower can be semi-symmetrical, and most have a couple of colour, mixed in beautiful, sharply contrasting designs. Flower preparations including orchids should show that flower because the dominant one in the display. Many frequent preparations have orchids flowing over the basket or vase, standing tall within the middle, or surrounded by different greenery. Orchids most commonly employ two to three sturdy, brilliant, contrasting colours (similar to white and purple or yellow, orange, and black). Nonetheless, among the many one hundred,000+ varieties accessible, there are orchids in nearly every shade conceivable. One other plus to this family of flowers is that they can be used in decorations for any time of year.
Wall mounted fountains are increasingly becoming widespread because of their simple upkeep, low price, and the way they enhance their surroundings. These fountains can be found in a wide range of costs, size, and designs. A few of the benefits of installing wall mounted fountains are discussed under.
Such fake wooden blinds have been designed with the intention to be used in rooms with extreme humidity. For example, you need to use them in your rest room or kitchen. They will not warp and they're also stain resistant. These features should persuade you that the faux blinds can make the difference for the way in which your own home looks without having to waste your money. The fake blinds are made from composite wooden or PVC. So they are heavier than the ones manufactured from wooden, but faux wooden blinds are easy to scrub and manage. They may are available a variety of shades and colors. You can depend on the best way they look as a result of they're likely to appear like real wood and it is going to be exhausting for you to notice the difference.


I first posted this in the Spring of this year but have been asked about it quite a few times so here it is again. If you go tree hugging do notice how beautiful the leaves are at this time of the year. They have been splendid. If you find yourself falling into a seasonal frenzy any time soon, try to take time out to think about the tree.

Jobs at multinational companies in Ireland hit record high
Conor Humphries
Commuters make their way into work in the morning in the financial district of Dublin
By Conor Humphries
DUBLIN (Reuters) -Ireland said on Monday that the number of people employed by multinational companies in the country had hit an all-time high of 275,000 in 2021, up 10% on its pre-pandemic level.
Just over 10% of Ireland's workforce is now employed by the multinational sector, particularly big technology and drugs companies attracted in part by a low corporate tax rate.
The net increase in employment from the sector almost doubled to 16,800 in 2021 from 2020, with 249 new investments, the country's foreign direct investment agency IDA Ireland said.
During the year, payments processor Stripe Inc created 1,000 jobs, chipmaker Intel 1,600 , Amazon 500 jobs and Bausch + Lomb 130, IDA added.
"FDI in Ireland has come through the pandemic relatively unscathed," IDA Chief Executive Martin Shanahan said.
Shanahan told a press briefing he did not expect the flow of jobs to slow in the wake of Ireland's decision in October to end its opposition to an overhaul of global corporate tax rules.
Dublin agreed to give up its prized 12.5% tax for large multinationals for a common minimum rate of 15%, although its implementation could be years away.
Shanahan said the stability resulting from the move meant it would not have a significant impact on FDI flows, adding that it was an "open question" whether the deal would be implemented.
Leo Varadkar, Ireland's Deputy Prime Minister, said the multinational sector had helped to sustain the economy while others, most notably hospitality, struggled during the pandemic.
Ireland's gross domestic product grew by 11% in the three months to the end of September compared to the previous year, one of the highest rates of growth in the European Union.

According to present provincial division Schweizer-Reneke, of which Ipelegeng forms part, is in the North-West Province. Neighbouring towns are Delareyville, Bloemhof en Christiana. Schweizer-Reneke is 322 kilometres from Johannesburg. It was founded in 1888 on the banks of the Harts River, the western boundary of the former Zuid-Afrikaansche Republic. The territory was known as Massouw Lokati. This was the reservation (also called location) given to the Korannas as their terrain. The Korannas, however, were opposed to living here as ZAR subjects. In the Battle of Mamusa in 1885 the Korannas were defeated by the ZAR and they lost their independence. Schweizer-Reneke was to be established three years later. Before the South African war (1899-1902) black people had already lived in a location at Schweizer-Reneke. The lifestyle and conditions in the location at Schweizer-Reneke can be compared to those in today's squatter camps. With the outbreak of the Spanish Flu Epidemic in 1918 the Town Council of Schweizer-Reneke was forced to improve the inadequate and deficient services in the location in order to prevent the flu to spread to the surrounding areas. This led to the proclamation of a larger location (named Location Two) further away from the white town. Basic services were established in both the old and new location. It was only by 1940 that Location One was officially proclaimed as location and obtain full status as black location. After the enforcement of the Group Areas Act of 1950 Location One was disposed of and Location Two became the only black area opened for settlement. This black suburb developed its own identity in the early 1970's and came to be called Ipelegeng. As a result of the political changes from 1972 to 1995 lpelegeng evolved from being only a representative local council to a responsible local managing board. In this study Chapter One will shed more fight on the development history of lpelegeng, the focus being on the earlier settlement patterns and community development in the vicinity of Schweizer-Reneke up to 1918. In Chapter Two the Spanish Influenza of 1918 is discussed as point in the development of a black township. Chapter Three covers the time from 1945 to 1972 that portrays a period of separation and turmoil in the creating of a local independence. Community development in lpelegeng, within the framework of political changes in South Africa from 1972 to 1995, forms the key aspect of Chapter Four. The concluding Chapter is an evaluation of the black township development at Schweizer-Reneke in which the main developments and key aspects of lpelegeng's process of becoming a town are accentuated.

Carbon and nitrogen metabolism under nitrogen variation affects flavonoid accumulation in the leaves of Coreopsis tinctoria.
Authors: Zhiyuan Li, Hong Jiang, Huizhuan Yan, Xiumei Jiang, Yan Ma and Yong Qin
Flavonoids are phytochemicals present in medicinal plants and contribute to human health. Coreopsis tinctoria, a species rich in flavonoids, has long been used in traditional medicine and as a food resource. N (nitrogen) fertilization can reduce flavonoid accumulation in C. tinctoria. However, there is limited knowledge regarding N regulatory mechanisms. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of N availability on flavonoid biosynthesis in C. tinctoria and to investigate the relationship between C (carbon) and N metabolism coupled with flavonoid synthesis under controlled conditions. C. tinctoria seedlings were grown hydroponically under five different N levels (0, 0.625, 1.250, 2.500 and 5.000 mM). The related indexes of C, N and flavonoid metabolism of C. tinctoria under N variation were measured and analysed. N availability (low and moderate N levels) regulates enzyme activities related to C and N metabolism, promotes the accumulation of carbohydrates, reduces N metabolite levels, and enhances the internal C/N balance. The flavonoid content in roots and stalks remained relatively stable, while that in leaves peaked at low or intermediate N levels. Flavonoids are closely related to phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), cinnamate 4-hydroxylase (C4H), 4-coumarate: coenzyme A ligase (4CL), and chalcone-thioase (CHS) activity, significantly positively correlated with carbohydrates and negatively correlated with N metabolites. Thus, C and N metabolism can not only control the distribution of C in amino acid and carbohydrate biosynthesis pathways but also change the distribution in flavonoid biosynthesis pathways, which also provides meaningful information for maintaining high yields while ensuring the nutritional value of crop plants.

SACRAMENTO - Building on the state's success in decarbonizing its economy, the California Air Resources Board today approved a bold plan to accelerate the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions over the coming decade while improving air quality and public health, investing in disadvantaged communities, and supporting jobs and economic growth.
Eleven years ago, the landmark Global Warming Solutions Act (AB 32) set the goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by 2020. California is on track to exceed that target, while the state's economic growth has continued to outpace the rest of the country. The 2017 Climate Change Scoping Plan, approved unanimously by CARB today, sets the state on an ambitious course to reduce climate-changing gases an additional 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2030 under SB 32. This will require California to double the rate at which it has been cutting climate-changing gases.
Following through on these actions, the plan estimates, could save the state in 2030 as much as $11 billion dollars in avoided environmental damage from carbon pollution in 2030. Costs of California's 2017 wildfire season so far are now more than $10 billion.
The programs detailed in the Scoping Plan will also improve public health while reducing costs associated with healthcare and natural disasters. These include a projected reduction in premature deaths of 3,300 by 2030. The financial benefit from reduced sick days and hospital stays will be more than $1.2 billion in 2030.
More Clean Cars and Trucks: The plan sets out far-reaching programs to incentivize the sale of millions of zero-emission vehicles, drive the deployment of zero-emission trucks, and shift to a cleaner system of handling freight statewide.
Increased Renewable Energy: California's electric utilities are ahead of schedule meeting the requirement that 33 percent of electricity come from renewable sources by 2020. The Scoping Plan guides utilities to 50 percent renewables, as required under SB 350.
Slashing Super-Pollutants: The plan calls for a significant cut in super-pollutants such as methane and HFC refrigerants, which are responsible for as much as 40 percent of global warming.
Cleaner Industry and Electricity: California's renewed cap-and-trade program extends the declining cap on emissions from utilities and industries and the carbon allowance auctions. The auctions will continue to fund investments in clean energy and efficiency, particularly in disadvantaged communities.
Cleaner Fuels: The Low Carbon Fuel Standard will drive further development of cleaner, renewable transportation fuels to replace fossil fuels.
Smart Community Planning: Local communities will continue developing plans which will further link transportation and housing policies to create sustainable communities.
Improved Agriculture and Forests: The Scoping Plan also outlines innovative programs to account for and reduce emissions from agriculture, as well as forests and other natural lands.
The Scoping Plan also evaluates reductions of smog-causing pollutants through California's climate programs. In addition, AB 617 lays the groundwork for new and enhanced efforts to identify and reduce air pollutants and air toxics with a specific focus on communities near the state's biggest emitters and in communities disproportionately impacted by pollution.
The Scoping Plan is the result of unprecedented public outreach and coordination over the past two years. More than 20 state agencies collaborated to produce the plan, which was informed by 15 state agency-sponsored workshops, five board meetings and more than 500 public comments.
Building on today's plan, CARB will continue to look for additional opportunities to reduce greenhouse gases and criteria and air toxics emissions. A Natural and Working Lands Implementation Plan will be completed next year along with continued implementation of AB 617 and AB 197 to improve access to air emissions data and better air quality in the most burdened communities in California. CARB has also initiated a new rulemaking to design a post 2020 Cap-and-Trade program that conforms to the requirements of AB 398.


Carl Sagan played a leading role in the American space program since its inception. He was a consultant and adviser to NASA beginning in the 1950s, he briefed the Apollo astronauts before their flights to the Moon, and was an experimenter on the Mariner, Viking, Voyager, and Galileo expeditions to the planets. He helped solve the mysteries of the high temperature of Venus (a massive greenhouse effect), the seasonal changes on Mars (windblown dust) and the reddish haze of Titan (complex organic molecules).
For his work, Dr. Sagan received the NASA Medals for Exceptional Scientific Achievement and for Distinguished Public Service twice, as well as the NASA Apollo Achievement Award.
"...for his extraordinary contributions to the development of planetary science... As a scientist trained in both astronomy and biology, Dr. Sagan made seminal contributions to the study of planetary atmospheres, planetary surfaces, the history of the Earth, and exobiology. Many of the most productive planetary scientists working today are his present and former students and associates." He is also the 1994 recipient of the Public Welfare Medal, the highest award of the National Academy of Sciences for "distinguished contributions in the application of science to the public welfare."
"Carl Sagan has been enormously successful in communicating the wonder and importance of science. His ability to capture the imagination of millions and to explain difficult concepts in understandable terms is a magnificent achievement."
Dr. Sagan served as Chairman of the Division of Planetary Sciences of the American Astronomical Society, as President of the Planetology Section of the American Geophysical Union, and as Chairman of the Astronomy Section of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
For 12 years he was Editor in Chief of Icarus, the leading professional journal devoted to planetary research. He was the co-founder and first President of The Planetary Society and a Distinguished Visiting Scientist at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology.
A Pulitzer Prize winner, Dr. Sagan was the author of many bestsellers, including Cosmos, which became the best-selling science book ever published in the English language. The accompanying Emmy and Peabody award-winning television series has been seen by 500 million people in 60 countries. He received 20 honorary degrees from American colleges and universities for his contributions to science, literature, education, and the preservation of the environment.
At the time of his death on December 20, 1996, he served as the David Duncan Professor of Astronomy and Space Sciences and Director of the Laboratory for Planetary Studies at Cornell University. Dr. Sagan's The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark was released by Random House in March 1996. A collection of writings called Billions and Billions was published posthumously. He was co-producer and co-writer of the acclaimed Warner Brothers movie Contact, based on his novel.
Carl Sagan's argument for planetary exploration. First published in the first issue of The Planetary Report magazine.

Q: Fedora Core 6 Migration I am at a loss as to what I should to for this server. I need it to run php5.3 and corresponding version of mysql.
I received a client today through work that is using Fedora core 6 running 10 very small websites on some very hodge podge setup. My original idea was just upgrade to php5.3. I have yum (installed 3.0.8) reconfigured for the fedora archive. The latest version of php it allows is 5.1.8. I am still relatively new to server setups and am nervous about wiping their server to upgrade it. Since it is about 6-8 years old I'm not sure if it will even support the newest version of fedora.
The server specs are:
Parallels Plesk Panel version   9.5.4
Operating system    Linux 2.6.9-023stab048.4-smp
CPU GenuineIntel, Intel(R) Xeon(R)CPU E5335 @ 2.00GHz
(10gb disk space and 1gb of memory).

I use fedora for my personal server so I was a little familiar with it. I haven't done anything too extravagant. Is there a way I can escape this nightmare with installing php5.3 or do I need to migrate these sites to a new server?

A: Fedora Core 6 makes up RHEL5 (at least according to wikipedia). You can try adding repository IUS Community which provides latest php for RHEL which hopefully compatible with Fedora (RHEL5 in your case).
As for whether it'll be supported on newer OS or not, I believe it should be supported. Linux rarely breaks compatibility of older hardware (assuming you're not using a binary-only driver).
Though if I read kernel, ram, and cpu correctly, it looks like an OpenVZ (or similar) instance, not a real machine.

Could Your Car Ride to Work Be Bad For Your Health?
For Sydney-siders, sitting in traffic travelling to and from work is one of the most frustrating parts of the day. However as it turns out, there may be more problems involved with long commutes than previously thought. Studies have shown that there is a link between time spent in the car and some serious health risks.
The Daily was joined by Professor Trevor Shilton of the heart foundation to talk more about the issue.

Probably the most renowned fighting knife in the world is the kukri, the wickedly curved kukri of the Gurkhas of Nepal. It is Historic Kukri. The blade is flat, light by weight and comfortable to carry. In the wartime, the sight of this formidable Khukuri in the hands of the Gurkha soldiers was enough to bring the enemy at their wit's ends. This Kukri is a very famous knife among tourists and collectors because of the fact that it was actually used by Gurkha soldiers/army during first world wars. This Kukri knife played a very significant role in creating the history of the Gurkhas. This Kukri was also great to use for any kind of heavy or light duty. The water poured temper on the blade makes it very strong. The handle is very stronger then world War II kukri. Basically carried in a leather case, mostly walnut wooden grip and traditionally having two small knives and the blade is made of highly graded carbon steel (mostly used in railway tracks).
14 inch (35 cm) Handmade and Unpolish blade.
5 inch (12.5cm) Rosewood Handle, Full Tang Blade.

Following the Grace Millane trial, what can we do?
Saturday, 23 November 2019, 11:32 am
Press Release: White Ribbon
White Ribbon acknowledges the unimaginable hurt and pain the Millane family has suffered, and will continue to endure following the guilty verdict handed down today.
"While one person that has caused so much harm is behind bars, this trial must do something to prevent violence towards women," says Rob McCann, White Ribbon Manager.
"As a father, I am grateful the jury were able to understand the issue of consent. In my experience there are far too many people that do not understand the concept and the need for consent to be ongoing and active."
"White Ribbon explains the concept using what is called the 'cup of tea video'. In the video the act of sex is replaced with having a cup of tea. The video explains you can't force a person to drink tea, people can change their mind about drinking tea, and if they fall unconscious they can't be forced to drink the tea."
"This is a really simple and effective way of teaching consent," says Mr McCann.
"We also need to acknowledge that a perpetrator's attitudes and behaviour will be known to their mates. Poor behaviour does not come from a vacuum and it is incumbent on all of us to call out bad behaviour when we see it. It might start off as disrespectful jokes about women while you are in a bar. That might not initially seem harmful, but the reality is that by saying nothing, you are actually sending the signal that the disrespectful behaviour is ok and all too often that behaviour escalates."
"We are asking the public to intervene and disrupt other men's violence. This is commonly called bystander intervention."
White Ribbon produced a video about how to help by disrupting other men's violence. You can watch the video here.
The third thing White Ribbon is suggesting is that we talk about pornography with our young men and women.
"Pornography is becoming more violent and more readily accessible," says Mr McCann. "We believe it is changing the attitudes and behaviour of our young men and women. If our young men mimic pornography, then they treat women as conquests rather than human beings. This behaviour might be seen by some as manly, but ultimately, it's unhealthy and bad for both men and women."
White Ribbon recommends you be clear with your children – tell them that porn isn't real. That it doesn't show any real relationships, and the sex is often degrading, violent or disrespectful to women. We recommend that you talk about what respectful sexual behaviour looks like – and how you won't see it in most porn. White Ribbon has produced a video about talking with young men about respectful relationships and porn.
"Following the verdict we must take action to prevent violence. That means taking real steps such as talking about consent, disrupting other men's violence or talking about respectful sexual relationships and pornography. Doing nothing is one option that is not open to the country with the highest rate of reported violence towards women."

Once you receive your legally binding divorce decree, you may think you are done heading to court. While this would be the ideal scenario, it isn't always the case. Not all individuals are willing to follow even the most detailed court order. When this happens, you need to work with a divorce lawyer who can help you navigate the court system and get the best possible outcome for your case.
Not all aspects of the court order are subject to filing for contempt of court because they aren't as enforceable. For instance, if the other party doesn't exercise court ordered visitation, there is little the court can do to make it happen. However, if an individual is not paying child support or has taken the shared children outside of court ordered time without your agreement, a divorce lawyer can help you go through the process of filing contempt to punish the offending person and rectify the issue.
It isn't always necessary to spend the time and money required to go to court over contempt issues. In some cases, a misunderstanding is at fault. In other situations, the offending party may change their mind upon hearing from a divorce lawyer. Working things out between yourselves is often most cost-efficient and will help promote a more positive co-parenting relationship.
Sometimes there's nothing you can do to stay out of court. In these situations, it's best to approach your case under an experienced lawyer's guidance. Having someone by your side to fight for your rights is often critical to ensure you don't make mistakes that could cost you.
Don't let a simple contempt case go bad. Contact us for help determining the best approach to get your co-parenting relationship back on the right track.
