Local government in Wales
Since 1 April 1996, Wales has been divided into 22 single-tier principal areas for local government purposes.[1] The elected councils of these areas are responsible for the provision of all local government services, including education, social work, environmental protection, and most highways. Below these there are also (in most, but not all, parts of the principal areas) elected community councils to which responsibility for specific aspects of the application of local policy may be devolved.

The queen appoints a Lord Lieutenant to represent her in each of the eight preserved counties of Wales, which are combinations of principal areas retained for ceremonial purposes.
Subdivisions of Wales created for such purposes as the organization of the National Health Service and the provision of police and emergency services are made up of combinations of principal areas. For example, the Dyfed–Powys Police force operates in the area covered by the principal areas of Pembrokeshire, Ceredigion, and Carmarthenshire as well as in Powys – the former three constituting the preserved county of Dyfed.
There are six cities in total in Wales: in addition to the three principal areas with city status (Cardiff, Swansea and Newport), the communities of Bangor, St Davids and St Asaph also have the status. City status is granted by letters patent.
Bangor – time indeterminate
Cardiff 1905
Swansea 1969
St Davids 1994
St Asaph 2012
St Asaph, as the seat of a bishopric, was historically referred to as a city, and was described as such in the 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica. The status was, however, not officially recognised for many years. When city status was restored to St Davids in 1994, St Asaph town council submitted a petition for the same purpose. The petition was refused as, unlike St Davids, there was no evidence of any charter or letters patent in the past conferring the status. Applications for city status in competitions in 2000 and 2002 were unsuccessful.[2] However, city status was finally granted to St Asaph in 2012 as part of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee celebrations:[3] St Asaph was selected "to recognise its wealth of history, its cultural contribution and its metropolitan status as a centre for technology, commerce and business".
Principal areas of Wales
Main article: List of Welsh principal areas
There are 22 principal areas in Wales. They came into being on 1 April 1996 by virtue of the Local Government (Wales) Act 1994 (1994 c. 19). Eleven are named as counties, including the Cities and Counties of Cardiff and Swansea (marked *), and eleven are styled as county boroughs (marked †).[4] In 2002 Newport was granted city status, and the county borough is now styled as the "City of Newport".[5][6] Welsh language forms are given in parentheses, except where there is no English equivalent.
Locations of each council headquarters are indicated by yellow markers.
Blaenau Gwent †
Bridgend (Pen-y-bont ar Ogwr) †
Caerphilly (Caerffili) †
Cardiff (Caerdydd) *
Carmarthenshire (Sir Gaerfyrddin)
Conwy †
Denbighshire (Sir Ddinbych)
Flintshire (Sir y Fflint)
Isle of Anglesey (Ynys Môn)
Merthyr Tydfil (Merthyr Tudful) †
Monmouthshire (Sir Fynwy)
Neath Port Talbot (Castell-nedd Port Talbot) †
Newport (Casnewydd) *
Pembrokeshire (Sir Benfro)
Rhondda Cynon Taf †
Swansea (Abertawe) *
Torfaen (Tor-faen) †
Vale of Glamorgan (Bro Morgannwg) †
Wrexham (Wrecsam) †
Areas are Counties, unless marked * (for Cities) or † (for County Boroughs). Welsh-language forms are given in parentheses, where they differ from the English.
The current names of certain unitary authority areas are different from those specified in the Local Government (Wales) Act 1994. The following changes took place, all with effect from 2 April 1996:[7]
Conwy from Aberconwy and Colwyn
Isle of Anglesey from Anglesey
Gwynedd from Caernarfonshire and Merionethshire
Ceredigion from Cardiganshire
Neath Port Talbot from Neath and Port Talbot
Main article: List of leaders of Welsh councils
Like councils throughout the UK, Welsh councils are made up of elected councillors. Exceptionally, because of political in-fighting and a history of poor performance, the executive functions of the Isle of Anglesey Council were temporarily taken over by commissioners appointed by the Welsh Government.[8] Elections planned for 2012 were delayed until 2013.[9]
Local government elections normally take place every four years, though the Wales Act 2017 prevented local government elections from taking place in the same year as elections to the National Assembly of Wales. Hence the Local Authorities (Change to the Year of Ordinary Elections (Wales) Order 2019 postponed the date of the May 2021 local elections to May 2022.[10]
Preserved counties of Wales
Main article: Preserved counties of Wales
For ceremonial purposes of Lieutenancy and Shrievalty, Wales is divided into eight preserved counties which are based on the counties created by the Local Government Act 1972 and used for local government and other purposes between 1974 and their abolition in 1996.
Historic counties of Wales
Main article: Historic counties of Wales
The historic counties of Wales are ancient subdivisions of Wales, used for various functions for several hundred years. Wales had no official counties until the 13th century. In the south east, Norman advancement led to the creation of marcher lordships, such as Glamorgan, which served as semi-autonomous administrative divisions, although these were not counties in the true sense as they lacked the formal structure. Some towns within these areas did, however, receive charters which outlined rights and duties in much the same way as a borough. Counties in the strict sense first appeared with the establishment of Cardiganshire and Carmarthenshire in the 1240s. In 1284 the Principality of Gwynedd was divided into three counties: Anglesey, Caernarvonshire and Merionethshire. This can be regarded as an arrangement imposed on Wales by the English during the last years of Prince Llywelyn II. Before the end of the century, Flintshire had also become a county, and thus nearly half the territory of Wales was under the rule of the English Crown. While the arrangement did not officially bring the marcher lordships in the South directly under the King's control, many such lordships were held by the King personally, although some remained under the semi-autonomous control of powerful local families. The formation of counties was completed under the Act of Union 1536, which created Pembrokeshire, Montgomeryshire, Denbighshire, Radnorshire, Glamorganshire, Brecknockshire and Monmouthshire, many from existing marcher lordships now recreated as counties proper.
These 13 counties were the main administrative subdivisions of Wales from 1536 until the implementation in 1974 of the Local Government Act 1972, although the definition and role of the smaller county boroughs within the counties during that period saw considerable change, as it did across the United Kingdom.
Main article: Community (Wales)
See also: List of communities in Wales
At the lowest level of administrative subdivision in Wales are the communities, into which each principal area is subdivided. They may have elected community councils which perform a number of roles, such as providing local facilities, and representing their communities to larger local government bodies. Community councils are the equivalent of English parish councils. A community council may call itself a "town council" if it so wishes. The councils of three communities with city status – Bangor, St Asaph, and St Davids – are known as "city councils". Communities which are too small to have a council may have a community meeting instead: an example of direct democracy. The communities in the urban areas of the cities of Cardiff, Swansea and Newport do not have community councils.[11][12][13]
Police and fire services
There are four police forces in Wales. These are:
North Wales Police (Heddlu Gogledd Cymru)
Dyfed-Powys Police (Heddlu Dyfed-Powys)
South Wales Police (Heddlu De Cymru)
Gwent Police (Heddlu Gwent)
Fire and rescue services
There are three fire and rescue services in Wales. The present Welsh fire services date from 1996. Each covers a number of principal areas. These are:
North Wales Fire and Rescue Service (Gwasanaeth Tân ac Achub Gogledd Cymru)
Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue Service (Gwasanaeth Tân ac Achub Canolbarth a Gorllewin Cymru)
South Wales Fire and Rescue Service (Gwasanaeth Tân ac Achub De Cymru)
Eurostat NUTS
In the Eurostat Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics (NUTS), Wales is a level-1 NUTS region, coded "UKL", which is subdivided as follows:
Wales UKL West Wales and The Valleys UKL1 Isle of Anglesey UKL11

Proposals to reform
Williams Commission
In April 2013, it was announced that a major review was to be undertaken into local government organisation in Wales, with a Commission on Public Service Governance and Delivery being established, to be chaired by Sir Paul Williams. First Minister Carwyn Jones said: "Since public sector budgets are likely to continue to tighten, and demand pressures grow, there is a clear need to examine how services can be sustained and standards of performance raised, so that people in Wales can continue to receive and influence the public services they need and value."[14]
The Commission reported on 20 January 2014. It recommended that the number of councils be reduced, through mergers rather than through boundary changes, from 22 to 10, 11 or 12; and suggested that the cost of merging the councils would be met through savings made within about two years.[15]
Wales' First Minister Carwyn Jones said: "This report addresses many issues that are critical at a time when the need for public services is outstripping the resources available to provide them. I have always been clear that the status quo is not an option. Change is inevitable and essential so that our public services can become more efficient, effective, accessible and responsive." Janet Finch-Saunders AM, shadow minister for local government, said: "What matters to the vast majority of hardworking families is not the intricate structures of local government, but knowing that services will be delivered in an efficient and cost effective way.... We believe that public services are best delivered locally so taxpayers can hold local representatives to account for what happens in their community." Rhodri Glyn Thomas, for Plaid Cymru, commented: "The weight of evidence presented to the Williams Commission shows that if the people of Wales are going to get the services they need and deserve then there has to be a radical improvement in the way public services are delivered."[15]
Draft Local Government (Wales) Bill
In response to recommendations made by the Williams Commission, the Welsh Government published a draft local government bill in November 2015.[16] The draft bill contained two proposals, one for eight local authorities and one for nine local authorities. The only difference between the two proposals related to North Wales. The bill did not propose names for the local authorities, only listing them by number as a combination of existing principal areas. Powys was not affected by either proposal. The changes were planned to take effect in April 2020.[17]
Eight local authorities model
Proposed 8 local authorities model

Powys Powys
Nine local authorities model
Area 1 Anglesey, Gwynedd
Area 2 Conwy, Denbighshire
Area 3 Flintshire, Wrexham
2016 redrafting and abandonment
Following the 2016 assembly elections, First Minister Carwyn Jones announced that the proposals for local government reform would be taken "back to the drawing board" and that a new consensus on how to reform local government in Wales would be sought.[18] The merger plans were formally dropped in January 2017, when the Welsh Government instead began a consultation on wider reform of local governance arrangements. The number of councils are to remain as they currently are, unless two or more local authorities wish to pursue a voluntary merger.[19]
2017 white paper
A white paper titled "Reforming Local Government: Resilient and Renewed" was published in January 2017. It proposed the formation of regional bodies to encourage better collaboration between existing local authorities and a possible change in the electoral system used in local elections from "first past the post" to the "single transferable vote" system.[19]
2018 green paper
A new green paper, "Strengthening Local Government: Delivering for People", was published in 2018.[20] The paper makes the case for a reduction of the number of local authorities from 22 to 10 and suggested three possible approaches, a system of voluntary mergers, a phased approach with authorities merging in either 2022 or 2026 or a comprehensive system of mergers to occur in 2022.[21]
Proposed 10 authority model
Area 4 Powys
Area 9 Caerphilly, Newport
Area 10 Blaenau Gwent, Monmouthshire, Torfaen
Local Government and Elections (Wales) Bill, 2019
A bill was introduced by the Welsh Government in November 2019 to reform local government in Wales. The bill contains provisions to reduce the voting age from 18 to 16 for local elections in Wales and will extend the franchise to include eligible foreign nationals. It will extend the term of local councillors from four years to five years. The bill will allow local councils to decide to continue to hold elections under first past the post or to switch to the single transferable vote system. The bill does not include provisions to restructure local councils but does contain mechanisms that can allow for two or more authorities to merge on a voluntary basis. It will also create a framework for joint regional coordination between local authorities.[22]

Does anyone know where I can get the song "Very Early Sunday Morning" in English?
I think that's the wrong link.
my bad, i fixed it now.
Perhaps you misunderstood what I'm referring to. I was talking about the lyrics I posted and the ones you linked to. They are the same song, but the lyrics are slightly different.
oh, yeah. well i post the ones that r on text library and that i get from what we use in my church.
We really need to work on making all the songs in english with the same lyrics the way it is in arabic. It will make singing them so much easier.
well i just checked the original arabic, it's not even close to mine or ur translation.
This was a poor litiral translation and i don't anyone would except this. so what i personally consider and use with the guidence of my church servants, is the tune and the main theme of the parts in arabic.
on the southern dicese site, suscopts.org/deacons, there is all kind of hymns, 95% of them are translated from the arabic which mostly doesn't make sense to me, doesn't sound right when sung, and doesn't rhyme. of course you can't always rhyme all hymns but u do what you can to make it sound acceptable and understandable.
I see what you're saying. But if we came up with one standardized translation and then just distributed to all the churches, that might make things easier. I don't know though, it is almost certainly going to be a lot of work to get done.
well that's very hard. this is applys also for the english hymns. we, from the archdiocease on north america, cam up with a standred way for the english liturgy, st. Basil resoponses (audio appllys to the coptic, english uses the translation of the SOuthern diocease, book published by HG. Youssef and HG. Sarapion.) and it was approved by HH from about 2 yrs ago. but guess what, the only church that actually follows is my church, St. Mark's JC, and i think St. Phelopater Makarius just started using it.
so it's really hard to unify the church since everything thinks they are right and that's what is supposed to use.
am really not surprised, we're copts, we don't trust each other, and we're so slefish of what we know.
That's a shame. I guess it's just so much harder to unify in a language that covers so much of a large area (i.e. the churches are so scattered). I guess what made arabic so unified was the fact that initially the entire church was based in egypt. Rabena mawgood ba2a.
I would like to learn how to sing the song.
Here is a very nice recording of this song, I hope you guys listen to this, its very nice!!!
WOW how did you get this audio its wonderfull many people have people have been looking for this song.
It is very beautiful, very edifying...Truely enriching to the orthodox faithful.
I am so greatful for the resources which come through Coptic Church by the Holy Spirit. So much has come out through the Coptic Church community not just to feed the Copts but all the world. A true act of Universal, Apostolic mission in our time.
The world needs to hear from the Holy Church...right now. This song is a key. Which can open the hardened hearts of men.
All of our communities (which is the One Holy Universal Church of God) must all work diligently to deliver the true message of hope to the lost in this world.
Speaking for my community we are not doing as much as we should and not nearly as much as we used to and are showing no signs of any change for the better for any forseable future. We are preaching and teaching and praising God to oursleves in a language only we can understand while at the same time thier are people who are looking for the true message of salvation right around us, people who are very hungry for the true faith of the Fathers; but we do not heed to this need. WE do not give them what they need. I have seen visiters (seekers of truth) come and mostly due to gross disregard from those of us who feel that "they" are not from our country and do not speak "our" language .... they go; to never be seen again.
Christ did not speak our langauge either and was not from our country. So how does one explain that? The Church of pentacost which is our One Universal Apostoluic Church of God started with ALL languages thus revoking from the true Church ( in mass ) all ideas of cultural superiority based on language and culture.
The Holy Spirit crushed this last stumbling block only for us to place it in front of us now in our day and time.
It is very dangerous to keep "our" languages as a badge of pedigree and pride in the place of true Apostolic mission. Our "great"" heritages and languages were our down fall.
Christ alone is what saved us.
Our great heritages and languages are powerless in the space of Christ.
These are important tradittions which we must keep and cherish. But not at the expense of the work of the Church which is missionary.
It seems to me that a people who truely fears God will obey His commandments and one of those are to "feed my sheep" and another is "preach the Gosple to ALL the world".
Coptic, Arabic, Geez, Amharic, Aramaic, Syrian etc are not spoken by all the world. So we must be a mulilingual nation. Mainly outside our national bounderies.
Where we exist among nations of English speakers we must speak English. It is our duty to seek out the needy; not the other way. And when we experience a "seeker" we must feed him.
WE can teach anyone Coptic or Geez for example later on after we have already enriched the person and gave them the gifts of the Holy Church. Then over time they will (can) in a manner suitable to thier growth in the faith learn the heritages, languages of our respective backgrounds.
I am very happy that we are all doing something (big or small). It is however a blessing within our efforts that we have the resources coming through our tireless Coptic brothers. I have rarely (really never yet) tried to find good 'orthodox' Christian scholarship on something and failed to find it thanks to Coptic resources.
I am trying to give praise to the Holy Spirit whom without none of us could do anything at all.
Thanks everyone for letting me air my feelings on this.
Give God the Glory..."Ekristos Anesti".....Amein. ("Christ has Risen" .....Amen).
That recording is wonderful. Can you please let us know who recorded it? We would like to take to add this beautiful song and any similar songs they have and attribute it to them.
if ur still having probs do u want me to email it to u?
Guys........................................... why go through all of this!!!!
and the rest of the hymns that the group recorded.
NO WAYY!!!!!!!!!! has that song always existed as an audio on tasbeha??? afta yrs of searching (hint of exaggeration).....Minagir, you hectic one....where u been???
so i guess someone uploaded the whole album and it was put online. it's on the 'What's New' list.
and it was only done about a week ago.....not much ago.


Working on the grant application for playlists, pathways and digital badges.
Much to do yet as the April 8th deadline looms larger. A number of letters of support have been posted at Play.CLOH.org. More are expected in the hours and days to come.
When we did the digital badges in 2015, to a much smaller scale, we were already doing many of the tasks that are desired with the 2016 RFP (request for proposals). We had many pathways that lead to another stage. We also had career connections. We also had what we called "meta badges" that were awards for a combination of other smaller accomplishments. In some ways, we were ahead of the game. But now we have to re-tool with XPs, experiences. Jargon. Oh well.


Beautiful family friendly home just across the street from a white sand beach that is walkable for a mile, kayak friendly, and swimmable. The great room, dining areas, and kitchen are all open for large family gatherings and dinners.
All the bedrooms have A/C, TV's, queen beds. The master suite has a king bed, personal kitchenette, and a large bathroom. There is a second master bedroom w/ private bath. A third bathroom in the hallway services the other 2 bedrooms and the family room.
Cool, comfortable, and furnished nicely. Lots of great art too.
Close to the beach with 'deeded beach access' and very roomy!
Plenty of room for a large family and easy access to the Punalu'u Beach Park across the street.
This is a large open concept home with all amenities needed while on vacation. The bedrooms are huge and each have a TV.
It is a 1 minute walk to sandy beaches. Jim was amazing. He attended quickly to anything we needed. We are definitely staying there again!!
Thank You for the nice review! I enjoyed that bottle of wine you left me last night!
Enjoyed the house. Thank you!
This property was a great place for us all to come together. Plenty big enough for the 7 of us. Quiet place to come home to after adventure-filled days.
Huge home for our party of 10. Perfect layout for privacy with three different families.
Jim met us and was wonderful with the tour and explanation of the property. View of ocean is obstructed, but can see a bit over the gates. The size was of the home was of greatest benefit to us. We didn't utilize outdoor extras. Mahalo nui for your hospitality, Jim!
Just returned from a six day, five night vacation for three couples plus an infant. Jim was there to greet us on our arrival. He personally walked us through the home, gave us good, detailed instructions, and even included an unexpected welcome basket full of snacks.
The Master bedroom/bath is amazingly comfortable and the other bedrooms suited our needs just fine. We were impressed that the home comes with a crib and high chair which was a welcome sight to the parents of the infant.
The location is right on the main road with easy access 5 miles south to the Kualoa Ranch and 5 miles north to the Polynesian Cultural Center. The home also has plenty of beach gear. We were so busy we only used the gear one time but it came in handy.
The home did warm up in the afternoon and the A/C in the vaulted great room and kitchen had a little trouble keeping things cool. Once the sun set it did not take long for the A/C to effectively cool. All of the rooms have individual A/C units and they seemed to cool effectively at any point during the day.
We would stay here again. Jim was very accommodating when we needed to change our visit dates at the last minute because of an issue beyond both of our control. Jim could not have been nicer the way he handled things.
And, if you like art, Jim owns an art gallery not too far away. We enjoyed our visit to the gallery and even purchased an item to bring back home.
Spacious!! Everything you need for a home away from home. Great location for a relaxing vacation. Definitely booking for our next return visit.
Perfect for our off island getaway!
House is huge and more then big enough for the 8 of us! Loved the house!
East Oahu, 35 Minutes from Honolulu/Waikiki or Northshore,Haliewa.

"An act of Congress approved March 3, 1893 authorized the establishment of the Commission to negotiate agreements with the Cherokee, Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek, and Seminole tribes providing for the dissolution of the tribal governments and the allotment of land to each tribal member. Senator Henry L. Dawes of Massachusetts was appointed Chairman of this Commission on November 1, 1893, after which it has commonly been referred to as the Dawes Commission"--Introd.
"The Commission was authorized by an act of Congress approved June 28, 1898 to prepare citizenship (tribal membership) rolls for each tribe. These final rolls were the basis for allotment. Under this act, subsequent acts, and resulting agreements negotiated with each tribe, the Commission received applications for membership covering more than 250,000 people and enrolled more than 101,000. The tribal membership rolls were closed on March 4, 1907, by an act of Congress approved on April 26, 1906, although an additional 312 persons were enrolled under an act approved August 1, 1914"--Introd.
"The Commission enrolled individuals as 'citizens' of a tribe under the following categories: citizens by blood, citizens by marriage, new born citizens by blood (enrolled under an act of Congress approved March 3, 1905), minor citizens by blood (enrolled under an act of Congress approved April 26, 1906), freedmen (former black slaves of Indians, later freed and admitted to tribal citizenship), new born freedmen, and minor freedmen. Delaware Indians adopted by the Cherokee tribe were enrolled as a separate group within the Cherokee. Within each enrollment category, the Commission generally maintained three types of cards: 'Straight' cards for persons who applications were approved, 'D' cards for persons who applications were considered doubtful and subject to question, and 'R' cards for persons whose applications were rejected. Persons listed on 'D' cards were subsequently transferred to either 'Straight' or 'R' cards depending on the Commission's decisions. All decisions of the Commission were sent to the Secretary of the Interior for final approval"--Introd.

For many mason contractors, cleaning questions repeatedly arise on the jobsite. From proper technique to environmental factors and material concerns, multiple factors must be considered when you prepare to clean a masonry structure.
To get answers to common masonry cleaning questions, MASONRY sat down with Marty Harris, Vice President of waterproofing, chemical and restoration products for Hohmann & Barnard/Diedrich. A former mason contractor, Harris worked for his family's third-generation masonry company for 30 years. Today he puts that hands-on experience to work, overseeing product lines for H&B to include Diedrich masonry cleaning products.
Harris gives the following advice to masons for the cleaning and maintenance of masonry projects.
Masonry Magazine: How do I wash efflorescence and keep it from coming back?
Marty Harris: It's important to understand what causes efflorescence in the first place. Understanding its causes allows us to find the proper steps to prevent or minimize efflorescence at the beginning stages of construction. Then, we can determine how to go about the cleaning process if or when it appears on new or existing masonry substrate – and keep it from coming back.
Efflorescence is salt deposits found in stone, brick, CMU, stucco and concrete when water is present in these materials. As the materials dry outwardly, salt is brought to the surface, causing efflorescence. The efflorescence appears as a powdery substance and requires special procedures to treat it.
You can minimize the chance of having efflorescence by protecting products from moisture prior to installation, and by covering tops of unfinished walls. Efflorescence will most generally go away after an initial wash down, as long as water is not driven back into the material via water pressure that is too high during the washing process. Drying time is the best cure for efflorescence, but due to fast-paced construction schedules, time is of the essence.
When spot washing efflorescence, assure you don't create a bigger problem by introducing more water to an issue already created by moisture. A few products in the market manufactured by reputable cleaning manufactures work well for cleaning efflorescence, after the initial wash is done. One product that I found is Spray-Away efflorescence cleaner, which can simply be sprayed on any leftover efflorescence. The job is done without scrubbing or rinsing.
Evaluate what is actually causing the efflorescence, so it doesn't continue to return. Remember, efflorescence is caused from moisture and can happen in several ways. Improper wall ventilation, no weep vents, flashing issues, parapet caps, cracks in the mortar joints, walls exposed to the elements with no sealer, etc. can cause problems. Fix the problem, and then contact a reputable chemical manufacturer for cleaning instructions for various wall types.
This building has efflorescence, caused from moisture, which could result from improper wall ventilation, no weep vents, flashing issues, parapet caps, cracks in the mortar joints, walls exposed to the elements with no sealer, and etc.
M.M: How do you know what type of brick cleaner should be used on new masonry?
M.H.: The first thing you should do is to ask the brick manufacturer to recommend a cleaning procedure for the brick being cleaned. When brick manufacturer cleaning recommendations are not provided, contact a reputable chemical manufacture representative for help.
Next, contact a reputable chemical manufacture rep. to help you with conducting a test. The rep. will be able to help you determine the proper dilutions ratio – how many parts water to parts product for your job. This will save you a lot of time and get you headed in the right direction. Your manufacturer rep. is a valuable resource.
M.M: Why did a brick cleaning solution work on a mockup wall, but not as well on the jobsite wall?
M.H.: On most jobsites, brick mockups are required several weeks or even months – depending on the size of the job – before the brick work actually starts. After the brick mockup has had the proper cure time, the brick mason is asked to clean the brick to evaluate the finished product for approval. This should really be conducted closer to the time of construction. If the brick is washed far in advance, the temperatures might vary considerably from the build time to the actual time the jobsite cleaning takes place. This will change how the brick cleaning solution performs on the mockup. If this takes place, it might take a few test areas to achieve acceptable results.
Cleaning in cold temperatures affects the reaction and drying time of the cleaning solution. Cleaning solutions are more effective when temperatures are 45 degrees Fahrenheit and rising. Never try to clean a wall when temperatures fall below freezing. Before cleaning, assure the ambient temperature will be 40 degrees Fahrenheit or above, and will remain so until the wall is dry.
M.M: Why does my block or brick wall have a white haze in the summer, but not in colder months?
M.H.: Most of the time, this takes place when temperatures are hot and or windy. It is caused when there's an attempt to clean too large of an area, or the wall is not pre-wetted enough, thus resulting in the wall drying out. This allows the cleaning solution to draw into the material before the material is thoroughly rinsed from the brick or block wall. The dried-in cleaning solution then causes the white hazing or white scum on the face of the material. The reason this happens less in cooler temperatures is that the wall will stay wet longer and won't let the cleaning solution draw into the material.
Shown is masonry with a cleaning solution dried in, due to improper wetting of the material.
M.M: Can I use the same cleaning solutions on a new brick building as on an older, existing brick building?
M.H.: No. Cleaning detergents used on new masonry are designed to remove residual mortar, jobsite soiling, staining and efflorescence from the material. Older, existing masonry or masonry restoration usually has a specific reason for the needed cleaning, thus special cleaners are required for special need. I would suggest contacting a reputable chemical manufacturer for cleaning instructions for various cleaning or restoration needs.
For masonry restoration of an older structure, special cleaners are required for special needs. The result can be amazing.

A: Acording your sent source file, you programmed the usart as "8 bits", but this STM HAL routine compute data_bits+parity_bit=8bits(your selection). For standard text transmission, for this STM HAL should be: 9 bits (8_data_bits+one_parity_bit).

(Screendaily) Picture Tree boards Finnish drama 'Helene' starring Laura Birn (exclusive)
BY WENDY MITCHELL 15 JANUARY 2020
Picture Tree plans to screen the film for buyers at Goteborg's Nordic Film Market and at Berlin's European Film Market, with a festival premiere coming later in 2020. The film was previously touted as a work in progress in Haugesund in August 2019.
The biopic is about Helene Schjerfbeck, a Finnish painter who lived a quiet life in the countryside with her elderly mother. The film covers her life from 1915-1923, when an art dealer discovers her impressive collection of paintings and wants to organise a solo exhibition, and at the same time, she falls in love with a younger man named Einar Reuter.
Director Antti J. Jokinen, whose credits include The Resident and Purge, has been preparing to make the film for more than five years. He said, "Whilst doing my research, I discovered a strong, uncompromising, funny and honest artist. Meaning Helene was the perfect character for a dramatic movie."
Jokinen wrote the script with Marko Leino, based on the novel Helene by Raquel Liehu.
Laura Birn (Purge, Game Of Thrones) plays Helene and spent six months studying art to prepare for the role.
The cast also includes Johannes Holopainen (The Unknown Soldier), Eero Aho (The Unknown Soldier), and Jarkko Lahti (The Happiest Day In The Life Of Olli Maki).
Mikko Tenhunen produces for Finland Cinematic.
The Finnish Film Foundation financed $890,000 (€800,000) of the film's $2.5m (€2.3m) budget. Backers also include The Estonian Film Institute (Estonia's Stelalar Film co-produces), YLE, Nordisk Film and the Jane & Aatos Erkko Foundation.
Germany-based Picture Tree has recently taken on a number of Nordic titles, including Venice selection Beware Of Children, which will screen in Goteborg's Nordic Competition; and Swedish musical A Piece Of My Heart, which has racked up more than 300,000 admissions in Sweden so far.

Vale of Glamorgan ou Bro Morgannwg (em galês) é uma das 22 subdivisões administrativas autônomas do País de Gales, sob o título de condado (County Borough), no Sul de Gales. É uma região rica em agricultura, possui uma costa marítima rochosa e localiza-se na parte sul do condado histórico de Glamorgan. O Vale possui ainda muitas atrações turísticas, incluindo o Barry Island Pleasure Park, Vale of Glamorgan Railway, St Donat's Castle, Cosmeston Lakes Country Park, Cosmeston Medieval Village e muitos outros.

Geografia
A região tornou-se um condado com as fronteiras atuais em 1996 sendo anteriormente parde do condado South Glamorgan. A maior cidade é Barry, mas outras cidades importantes incluem Cowbridge, Dinas Powys, Llantwit Major e Penarth. A região tem uma altitude baixa, com a maior altitude alcançando 137 metro acima do nível do mar.

A saída do Canal de Bristol, onde está localizado o Vale of Glamorgan, encara o Atlântico e recebe fortes ventos, ideal para a prática de surf mas um pesadelo para navios tentando navegar até Cardiff. Os fortes vendavais criam condições para naufrágio, o que até há cem anos era comum ao longo da costa. Locais como Nash Point, Southerndown e Ogmore-by-Sea tem um alto número de vítimas de naufrágio em comparação com outros locais de Gales.

Cidades e aldeias

Política
A região é governada pelo conselho do Vale of Glamorgan (Vale of Glamorgan Council) que é atualmente controlado pelo Partido Conservador. Os representantes políticos do parlamento e da assembleia constituinte oscilam entre o Partido Trabalhista e o Partido Conservador.

Below you will find a list of cities in Ohio that have golf courses. If you are an organizer and trying to decide where to have a tournament you can also use the links below to find golf courses in Ohio. Please click the link of a city to continue to narrow down your search for a Ohio golf tournament.
Ohio is affectionately known as the Buckeye State. Ohio also has a rich tradition in golf with its greatest claim to fame for golf in the state is being the birthplace of the one and only Jack Nicklaus. Nicklaus went on to a legendary career as a professional and was also a phenome when he played the collegiate level at Ohio State. There are plenty of top notch courses in the state and there are also some elite professional and amateur Ohio golf tournaments.
When speaking of Ohio and golf courses the very first one that has to be mentioned is none other than Murifeild Village Golf Club in Dublin. It is here every year that Jack Nicklaus hosts his annual event The Memorial Tournament for the PGA. The greatest professional golf players in the world play in this Ohio tournament. Some of the other top golf courses in the state of Ohio are Kensington Golf Club in Canfield, the Ohio State University Golf Club on their campus in Columbus, Firestone Country Club in Akron, Walnut Grove in Dayton, and Shaker Heights Country Club in Cleveland. Every one of these courses has hosted big name tournaments in the PGA, LPGA, the Nationwide Tour, and other professional touring associations.
Besides the Memorial, there other big Ohio golf tournaments held on a regular basis. Some are held by the Ohio Golfing Association and include junior, womens, senior, and four ball championships. The Ohio State University golf team is always heralded as one of the most prestigious in the country and the OGA always produces talent that go on to play for the Buckeye team. The USGA also has their Open qualifiers here for the state and year in and year out always produce some of the top golfers who go on and do well in the Nationals.

Silver        20%
Bronze        20%

This means that the average (and median) player should be in the Gold league.

A: According to the statistics of sc2ranks.com, currently over 50% of all players are either in silver or bronze league. This means the median of skill is somewhere at the top of silver league.
Those statistics are only for the current ladder season, so inactive players aren't counted.

Asolo's "A Midsummer Night's Dream" brings Shakespeare and fun together
Lexi Nieto, Arts Contributor|October 3, 2014
Asolo Repertory Theatre
The New Stages Tour adapted the play to take place in a high school setting, Athens Academy.
On Tuesday, September 30, the Asolo Repertory Theatre made their annual visit to AHN. This year, the actors presented their modern take on "A Midsummer Night's Dream". Many AHN students were already familiar with Shakespeare's classic- but certainly not as they saw it performed that day.
"A Midsummer Night's Dream" is the story of two different worlds: Athens and the forest of the fairies. The actors were able to comically yet accurately tell the modern story of this normally 5-Act play. The characters were put into a more contemporary monarchy; for example, the Dean of "Athens Academy" representing the king, and the students representing the love-stricken young adults.
The entire set was made up of only a simple blue curtain and three large chests. The curtain doubled as a backdrop and as a "backstage". It also helped differentiate between "Athens Academy" and the forest of the fairies. Each actor and actress played at least two different roles; the dramatic difference in costumes between each character helped the audience differentiate roles.
A huge part of the show was the music. The show weaved modern songs into the plot including "Turn Down for What?", "Fancy", and "All About That Bass". Also featured were a short choreographed dance number and an operatic a capella version of "Grenade" by Bruno Mars! Laughter was frequent throughout the performance.
As they do each year, the actors and actresses had a "talk back", in which they both asked for responses and took questions from AHN students. Some of the questions our students asked were:
Q: What's with the kneepads?
The kneepads were to protect the performers from injury as they are frequently rolling on the ground or crawling. Sometimes, they may have two performances in one day; if they get hurt during the first performance, it would certainly take a toll on their second.
Q: How long have you all been acting?
The answers varied from beginning at age four to just beginning to participate in high school.
Q: How old are you all?
The actors and actresses ranged from age 24 to 32.
Q: How were you able to change so fast?
The costumes were made to be simple to make transitions between characters. For example, a few of the actresses simply had to tuck and untuck their shirts, and actors simply slip on a jacket over their other costume. Another handy tool was Velcro for easy removal of small accessories.

Vodafone Ventures Egypt Announces Investment in Eshtery, Ogra, and GyroLabs
After sponsoring and participating in the Euromoney conference in Egypt earlier this month, Vodafone Ventures Egypt has announced investment in three companies that have graduated from Flat6Labs:
Eshtery, a mobile-based virtual supermarket for Egypt that leverages QR codes to help shoppers buy everyday items online.
Ogra, a taxi booking service for Cairo that allows users to book individual taxis via SMS or phonecall.
GyroLabs, a company working to make traditional television viewing more interactive, building applications for SmartTVs and mobile that merge the online world with TV.
The investment also marks the start of a strategic alliance between Vodafone Ventures Egypt and Cairo-based accelerator Flat6Labs, paving the way for future joint investments as well as joint events that support the emerging tech community in Cairo.
Ahmed Alfi, Chairman of Flat6Labs backer Sawari Ventures, noted that his team was proud to be partnering with Vodafone Egypt and that Flat6Labs was happy with the success of these three companies.
Mohammed AlAyouti, the Business Development Senior Manager at Vodafone Egypt, said that the investment is an extension of a mission launched by Vodafone xone (@vodafonexone) to help develop small internet businesses globally and encourage innovation, creativity, and technological development the Egyptian economy. Vodafone Xone is the company's Silicon Valley-focused incubator, which also has a presence in Milan and soon in London in addition to Cairo.
Vodafone Egypt intends to support infrastructure and regulation in order to support both startups and investors, while continuing to invest in tech and telecom ventures, said Vodafone Egypt CEO Hatem Dowidar, who revealed that the investment arm plans to allocate 50% of its investments into data transmission services.
With these new investments, the Flat6Labs graduates are looking to launch their products in the Egyptian market and expand.
"We're looking to go to market in Egypt next month, and then expand soon into two other countries," said Edward Disley, CEO and co-founder of Ogra. The company has been approached to partner with an entity in Canada, and will also be looking to finalize an agreement within another Middle Eastern country in the next three months, and then expand into 1-2 countries each year, he explained.
Ogra is also working on the payment aspect- "we're setting up payments so that it will be like using a direct debit card," he says. The company will charge a 3 EGP ($US 0.50) fee to book each taxi.
GyroLabs is focusing on deploying its products and testing them in the Egyptain market, said co-founder and CEO Ahmed Fathalla. "We're working on two verticals, building an app for Samsung SmartTVs, and then a separate social TV application, which will make TV more interactive and fun."
Once the company launches its web version, they will proceed to build apps for iOS and Android, and will potentially expand the SmartTV app to LG's platform. "Previously you could only access this content by using your laptop," says Fathalla. "It opens a huge range of possibilities."
"These are very strategic investments for these companies," says Flat6Labs CEO Ramez Mohamed. "Ogra will be able to use leverage Vodafone's call centers as well as use their intfrastructure when it comes to sending SMS. For Eshtery, having a telcom company as a backer will help with their payment solutions and distribution. Vodafone also previously launched a digital TV product called Webbox, so they will be able to help GyroLabs bridge the gap between TV and mobile."
Naturally, all three of the funded startups are mobile-based; the global Vodafone Ventures fund has also focsued on mobile companies since its launch in 2000, investing in companies around the globe like ItsOn, VoucherCloud and LocalResponse. By investing in Egypt, Vodafone Ventures will help to encourage direct foreign investment in a telecommunications market currently estimated to be worth around $ US 6.5 billion, said Dowidar.

Q: Text with slash into Json variable for python requests I need to pass text containing slashes into a Json variable when trying to retrieve data from an API. I've tried many ways but keep getting the error EOL while scanning string.
    textSent = \"This is my text\"

    payload = """{
    \"language\": \"en\",
     \"text\": textSent
     }"""

   response = requests.request("POST", url, data=payload)

Some of my attempts include:
'\"This is my text\"
"\"This is my text\""
r'\"This is my text\"

Note this works:
payload = """{
\"language\": \"en\",
 \"text\": \"This is my text\"
 }"""

A: Your problem is that you do not terminate the string you are trying to assign to textSent. You are escaping the last " which means this will be part of the string but therefore you are now missing the " to tell Python that this is the end of the string. So Python keeps searching for that character but as you never terminate the string in this code line it reaches the end of the line before finding ", hence the EOL.
In order to send this text as JSON just use json.dumps().
Please see the following example program based on your code which shows you two ways to incompass \ and " into your string and send them to an API endpoint as a JSON request body.
import json
import sys

import requests

# Possibility 1: here: use " to declare the string => " and \ must be escaped if they should be part of the string
textSentOnePossibility = "This is my text which contains \\ slashes and \" quotation marks"
# Possibility 2: here: use ' to declare the string => " does not need to be escaped but \ must be escaped if it should be part of the string
textSentAnotherPossibility = 'This is my text which contains \\ slashes and " quotation marks'
print(textSentOnePossibility)
print(textSentAnotherPossibility)

# build dictionary following the structure of your required JSON payload
payload_dict = {
    "language": "en",
    "text": textSentAnotherPossibility
}

# serialize to json
payload_json = json.dumps(payload_dict)

# make request (here: use postman echo API to to the actual request being sent)
resp = requests.post("https://postman-echo.com/post", data=payload_json)
if resp.status_code != 200:
    print("Request failed")
    sys.exit(1)
# print raw json that is returned from the API
print(resp.text)

Expected output:
This is my text which contains \ slashes and " quotation marks
This is my text which contains \ slashes and " quotation marks
{"args":{},"data":{"lang":"de","text":"This is my text which contains \\ slashes and \" quotation marks"},"files":{},"form":{},"headers":{"x-forwarded-proto":"https","x-forwarded-port":"443","host":"postman-echo.com","x-amzn-trace-id":"Root=1-6227986c-6d094aed6d68bbd63c1c497e","content-length":"90","user-agent":"python-requests/2.27.1","accept-encoding":"gzip, deflate","accept":"*/*","content-type":"application/json"},"json":{"lang":"de","text":"This is my text which contains \\ slashes and \" quotation marks"},"url":"https://postman-echo.com/post"}

EDIT
After your comment I think what you are really looking for is just json.dumps() which converts the python in-memory structure to the corresponding JSON. There is no need to fiddle around with all the ", \ and so on yourself.
Using json.dumps() should be sufficient.
The following program compares the working string you provided above to the one I create with json.dumps().

Please note: I removed the newlines from your working string to get an exact match using == but other than that it is the string you provided.

import json

textSent = "This is my text"

# build dictionary following the structure of your required JSON payload
payload_dict = {
    "language": "en",
    "text": textSent
}
# the string you provided except that I removed the new lines
payload = """{\"language\": \"en\", \"text\": \"This is my text\"}"""

# serialize to json string
payload_json = json.dumps(payload_dict)

# the two texts are equal
print(payload_json)
print(payload)
print(payload_json == payload)

Expected output:
    {"language": "en", "text": "This is my text"}
    {"language": "en", "text": "This is my text"}
    True

If you really wanted to generate something like the string you entered above you could just re-apply json.dumps() twice.
import json

textSent = "This is my text"

# build dictionary following the structure of your required JSON payload
payload_dict = {
    "language": "en",
    "text": textSent
}

# apply json dumps twice
payload_json = json.dumps(json.dumps(payload_dict))

print(payload_json)

I have used this approach once to send JSON documents in JSON documents as a string, but usually this not required or used by APIs.
Expected output:
"{\"language\": \"en\", \"text\": \"This is my text\"}"

Hope this is what you were looking for.

Just a tablespoon of orange liqueur per glass works wonders for this cocktail, adding a touch of sweetness and bright acidity to the sparkling wine.
Pour the orange liqueur into a flute. Top with the wine and garnish with the twist.


Yesterday marked the 64th anniversary of the historic Supreme Court case Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, in which the Court ruled that state laws segregating schools were unconstitutional. Yet schools today are more segregated than they were in 1968, with approximately 75 percent of black students attending racially segregated schools. This is bad news for students and particularly impacts black girls.
Vouchers divert desperately needed resources from public schools to fund the education of a few students at private or religious schools.

MUST TRY THE LIVE PRAWN BEEHOON.
We were taken aback when what seemed like a ginormous plate of Bee Hoon appeared amongst 3 other dishes we ordered for 4 pax. The Bee Hoon would nicely suffice for 4 pax worth of carb portions- I'd recommend just another small meat dish and veg to balance things off.
While wondering whether it's just the crab season, the meat under our orange shell seafood was sweet and succulent. The Bee Hoon was nicely wok-ed braised- making plain 米粉 palatable.
Must try dish from this zi char store! The coating of the chicken is crispy n frangrant with thick prawn paste smell. The meat is juicy & well marinated!

Q: Класс с большим количеством полей Однажды у меня возникла проблема с тем, что мне нужно было в одном классе работать с большим количеством полей.
class MyClass
{

public:
    MyClass(Type field1, Type field2, ...);

    Type getField1();
    Type getField2();
    ...

private:
    Type m_field1;
    Type m_field2;
    ...
}

Конечно, как я понял, в том случае проблема была в плохом проектировании программы :)
Но всё таки, если понадобится сделать класс в котором будет достаточно много полей, то (лично мне) будет лень для каждого из них прописывать геттер, и писать всю эту колбасу в конструкторе. Нормальна ли тогда такая практика:
struct MyClassInfo
{
    Type field1;
    Type field2;
    ...
}

class MyClass
{
public:
    MyClass(MyClassInfo info);

    const MyClassInfo & getMyClassInfo();

private:
    MyClassInfo m_info;
}


I had my first mom's night out in a long time!
We were home by 11 pm, all we drank was water (gotta stay hydrated), and we were dancing to the awesome music of "For King and Country" at their concert.
It may not be the mom's night out that you had in mind, but it was just the kind of night out I enjoy.
Growing up I never really knew what I wanted to do. Of course, like most kids, I would daydream about how awesome it would be to tour the world, playing shows, yet able to live a "normal" life when going back home. Even to this day, anytime I go to a concert I can't help thinking how awesome that must be. I'm sure it comes with its own set of problems, but it still just seems so amazing.
But, there's a small problem... I don't see myself as a musically talented person...seriously that gene just skipped me. But yet I still think about how amazing it must be to be able to travel, share your gift and bring others joy.
Our mom's night out was a great one but It was back to my reality the next morning….. dishes, homeschool, kids bickering…not quite the "rockstar life" but it's my life.
I don't know about you, but I never expected for my life to look like it currently looks now. I honestly don't know what I expected my life to look like, but this certainly wasn't it. Don't get me wrong... I love my "simple life", but I never thought I would be a military spouse and a homeschool mom. I never longed for being left to keep the home fires burning for months at a time, not knowing where our next "home" would be, getting completely out of my comfort zone in all types of ways and looking forward to the next mama's night out… whenever that will be.
Maybe you feel like you are living a simple life, not really "living to the fullest" or making an impact.
It is Meaningful and Impactful.
God is amazing!!.. and he has blessed every one of us with natural talents, gifts, quirks, and stories that make us unique and different than anyone else in this world... and that is far from boring.
Sure maybe you're not touring the world, but you can still use your gifts and talents to bring joy to others and be a shining light in this world.
Maybe you are a stay at home mama raising your beautiful babies, shaping them into awesome little individuals.
All of our gifts look a little different. Combine that with our own personalities and unique stories…well, honey that ain't a single one out there that is quite like you.
Our natural God given talents and gifts are there (that the beautiful thing about a gift right?..it's freely given!).. we just have to notice it and USE THEM! And if we are using them as much as we can to help as many as we can..... well, I would say that's a pretty exciting life.
How will you choose to use your talents & leave the "boring" life" behind?
