Cabinet commended the work that had been undertaken on the draft plan and explained that it had been drafted to embrace the housing challenges set by Government in a skilful way to take into account infrastructure and jobs. Extensive communications would be carried out to promote the consultation to engage as many people as possible and maximise the number of responses.
Cabinet noted that the Local Plan would only cover the parts of the District outside of the South Downs National Park (SDNP) and in response to questions was advised that the Council liaised regularly with the South Downs National Park Authority to ensure that the Local Plans aligned as much as possible.
With regard to Gypsies and Travellers, the starting point was a Gypsy and Travellers Housing Needs Assessment. It was important to look at the current and future need before identifying sites that would be suitable.

Syria Daily: UN Fails Again to Help Displaced in Rukban Camp
Displaced youth sift through rubbish at the Rukban camp in southeast Syria, November 2019 (Amad Ghaly)
The UN has failed again to deliver significant aid to about 13,000 displaced Syrians in the besieged Rukban camp in southeast Syria, according to well-placed sources.
The sources told EA that a UN convoy was supposed to arrive at the end of last week; however, officials were told by camp authorities that the assistance must include some medicine and winter clothes for newborns.
The authorities said in September, after a rare UN delivery to Rubkan, "It promised before to allow food and medicine into the camp but it didn't fulfill this promise."
The 13,000 residents had also appealed the UN children's agency UNICEF to aid 1,500 students, with water purification, medicines for skin diseases from contamination, supplies for treatment of disabled children, and roofing and insulation of schools.
Syria Daily, Nov 15: Residents in Rukban Camp Appeal to UN Over Medicine, Water, Schools
When the convoy neared Rukban, rebels found that the necessary aid was not onboard. The trucks then turned back to Damascus.
UN officials have been asked for comment.
Under Siege and Pressure to Leave
Rukban once held more than 50,000 Syrians, displaced from their homes in 2015 by ISIS assaults.More than 70% of the remaining residents are women and children.
In UN surveys, more than 90% of those in the camp say they wish to return to home areas, but almost all fear detentions, forced conscription, and harassment by the regime.
Assad regime forces cut off the main route into Rukban in October 2018, leading to shortages of food, medicine, and vital supplies, and Damascus has allowed only three UN aid convoys into the camp since January 2018. Activists and residents that even this assistance has been curbed by regime forces refusing or confiscating vital supplies.
Russia has enabled the siege with military support and sustained propaganda and disinformation operations, while the blockade has been compounded by Jordan's closure of the border in June 2016 after an Islamic State suicide attack.
The US military has refused to provide assistance, fearing a confrontation with Moscow, even though Rukban is within a 55-km (34-mile) security zone around the American base at Tanf on the Iraqi border.
There is only a rudimentary clinic in the camp, staffed by nurses, with basic supplies. Although emergency cases are supposed to be evacuated to Jordan, residents — including pregnant women and women in childbirth — have died from inadequate treatment and the lack of medicine.
See also Syria Daily, June 25: "The Cusp of Death" — No Bread or Flour in Besieged Rukban Camp
"They Should Have Provided Full Aid"
The latest episode began on November 24 when six families decided to leave the besieged camp. A rumour spread that the UN were coming to take away residents. The camp committee issued a statement, "We refuse to let them enter the camp, because they want to force people to return to the areas of the regime, taking advantage of the harsh conditions experienced by the people in the camp from cold and lack of food."
The camp's civil administration put out a series of explanation that Septembers aid shipment was exhausted. Since October, residents were living in freezing temperatures with no protection.
The administration expressed concern that the UN's request for a 10-day stay was primarily to press residents to leave, rather than to deliver assistance: "The question is what they want to do in 10 days and what they hide….They should have provided full aid, especially winterization after they had been away from the camp for 3 months".
On November 28, the administration confirmed that the convoy had been turned back after bringing in no food or winterization.
Russia-Regime Acknowledge Threat to Residents But Blame US
Russia and the Assad regime responded to the latest development with the complaint that residents had not left Rukban. The Russia-regime committee pursuing the removal blamed the US, declaring — without evidence — that those in the camp are "being held against their will under critical humanitarian conditions".
Again without any support, the committee implied that it was the Americans who are blocking the convoys: "It is impractical to transfer humanitarian aid to al-Rukban camp area because it does not reach all civilians detained there."
The committee said the Assad regime is ready to provide basic services" to residents once they arrive in regime-held areas.
In a cynical echo of the statements from the Rukban administration, the Russian and regime officials "warned against the increasing number of victims in the camp in winter, especially that the camp lacks the simplest means to enable its inhabitants to confront the harsh and critical circumstances".

Hey now! It looks like someone (read: Jenna Dewan) is going to have to make room in the spotlight because Dewan's boyfriend, Steve Kazee, will star in a new TV show. Dewan may have enjoyed having Kazee's attention all to herself so far in their relationship, but she'll soon need to share her rumored beau with a new Fox TV series titled Lovestruck — not to mention Kazee's new costar, Rachel Bilson. Something tells us Dewan won't mind, though. In fact, she has such a positive personality that we expect she's cheering for the success of Kazee and Bilson's show louder than anyone else.
Wondering what the show's about? Well, first things first, it sounds super-cute. Per TVLine, Lovestruck is being described as a "structurally inventive drama." To put it plainly, the entire first season centers on a single night at a wedding. Kazee and Bilson will play the lead roles of Alex Fletcher and Daisy, with Kazee's Alex being the groom to Bilson's bride. The season will take place during the course of their wedding night, so it's bound to be wild, right?
Per the series' official logline, "We'll learn surprising reveals about both their present and their present and their past. We'll see that things aren't always what they seem and explore the complicated bonds of love, friendship and family at different stages of life." The strong cast is rounded out by Kathleen Turner, Andie MacDowell, Richard Roxburgh, Madeline Wise and Usman Ally, so we are officially very intrigued.
To his credit, Kazee has previously enjoyed roles on hit TV series such as The Walking Dead, Blindspot, Nashville and Legends, although he is best known for his work as Gus Pfender on Showtime's Shameless. He's also a Tony Award-winner (for Once), who starred in the musical version of Pretty Woman on Broadway. Yep, he can sing, he can dance, he can act — it's little wonder he snagged the lead role in Lovestruck.
And who knows? Maybe Dewan will even cameo on the new series if the pilot gets picked up and finds success. She recently wrapped a stint on the medical drama The Resident and is in post-production for another TV project dubbed Mixtape, so she may just have an opening in her schedule soon.

Campaign Together crowdfunder: Stop the Tories at the next election
From Campaign Together: "Campaign Together is a grassroots movement of people from all political parties and none that want to stop the Tories from winning the next election. Last year, we flipped two seats away from the Tories and helped to elect left-wing candidates in Bristol and Oxford. We bring together people who want to stop the Tories and use political science, community organising and tactical voting to spread the message about which party can best stop a Tory government.
"We use 'big organising' techniques which means instead of relying on massive staff teams we distribute tasks across a network of volunteers.
"A General Election is closer than ever. Theresa May's Brexit deal is collapsing and Jeremy Corbyn is calling for the public to go to the polls. Now is our chance to stop the Tories.
"If we are going to stop them, we need to get organised and we need to Campaign Together.
"We've put together a plan that will flip the results against the Tories in 50 constituency but we need some cash to pay for the resources, events space and two staff members to help make it happen. Can you chip in?"

Indie crowdfunder: "The Great NHS Heist" film
2 July 2018 #StopTheTories Channel Monitoring
The Great NHS Heist Trailer
Coming Soon Our documentary film is close to completion. We need your help to spread the word about the film and more crowdfunding to deliver the best film possible. www.gofundme.com/thegreatnhsheistThank you#NHS70
Posted by The Great NHS Heist on Friday, June 29, 2018
"I'm Dr Bob Gill, a family doctor and NHS campaigner based in South East London.
"Over the last few years I have become aware of creeping privatisation in our National Health Service. There has been a concerted effort by consecutive governments to convert our NHS to a profit driven private health insurance system.
"In 2014 I co-produced a film, 'Sell Off – The Abolition of your NHS' which explained the dismantling of our health service. It has been shown at screenings around the country and been well received by audiences, judging by the feedback at over 50 such events I have attended in the last 18 months for Question and Answer sessions.
"I've had many requests to make another film. Our new project "THE GREAT NHS HEIST" will make clear what is going on and how the final betrayal will play out unless we act to stop the heist of our NHS.
"We will explore the measures being taken to drive us to an American-style health system and what is in store for us in a for-profit system.
"Our film can be made, with your support. We won't have money for stock footage or fancy music but if we can raise enough to get to all our interviewees and cover our equipment costs then we will be able to tell this important story. All the people involved are putting in their time and expertise voluntarily."
[Donate to crowdfunder now…]
Donate to the Progressive Alliance
From The Progressive Alliance: "This was a General Election like no other. Together, we've been building the new politics. In 41 seats, progressive parties formed alliances. Millions of people are talking about the Progressive Alliance and tactical voting.
"We denied the Tories a majority and it's clear that tactical voting made the difference.
"Up and down the country we saw something totally new, people from all progressive parties working together for a better future.
"It doesn't stop here. We can build the platform for a progressive majority and change the government. Will you help fund this historic project?"

May's deal with DUP faces legal challenge from crowdfunding campaign
From The Guardian: A crowdfunding campaign has been launched to raise funds for a potential legal challenge to Theresa May's parliamentary deal with the Democratic Unionist party, on the grounds that it breaches the Good Friday agreement.
Lawyers acting for Ciaran McClean, a Green Party politician in Northern Ireland, allege that the pact between the minority Conservative government and the DUP is in breach of both the landmark 1998 Northern Ireland peace deal and the Bribery Act.

A junior doctor is crowdfunding his own election video to spill the truth on May
7 May 2017 #StopTheTories Channel Monitoring
From The Canary: Jez is a junior doctor who's had enough of media bias and Conservative-inflicted austerity. With a group of his friends, he's on a mission to expose what's really happening to our NHS and our country through an election video of his own. But they first need the public's support.
Jez is an A&E doctor. Along with his friends Gareth (a public sector advisor) and Sam (who works in creative arts), he is crowdfunding to create an election video that exposes the true effects of the NHS crisis. He also aims to showcase the bias of mainstream media outlets, the damage inflicted by Conservative policies, and the problem of wealth inequality and tax evasion.

Love Las Vegas is a Beatles tribute and truly a gem, as it is easily one of the best shows in Las Vegas. With the merging of Beatles music and impressive acrobatics, Cirque du Soleil created another smash hit. Love premiered at the Mirage in 2006.
Cirque du Soleil founder Guy Laliberté was a personal friend of Beatles member, George Harrison. This visually stunning show was in fact a collaboration of greats. Sir George Martin and his son, Giles Martin, created a soundscape of Beatles music for the production and the two are actually the musical directors for the show. The show Director, Dominic Champagne, aimed to create a rock n roll poem with this performance. There are original Beatles recordings, using the master tapes at Abbey Road studios, played throughout. The TV monitors play a history of not only the band, but a history of the times.
The Beatles tribute show is a rather psychedelic journey, utilizing both the visually stunning performances and the TV montiors. The history of the Beatles is told through 30 of the groups songs played throughout. It's an inspiring and uplifting performance that transcends time. If you're a huge Beatles fan you will love this show. If you're a minor Beatles fan, you will love this show. It's a spectacular performance.
The theater is amazing. It holds just over 2,000 guests and has 360-degree seating. There is not a bad seat in the house and the farthest is only 98 feet from the stage. If you're up higher you will actually get to see something that others lower down will not. Front row seats are great, but in this case, back row seats may in fact be greater.
There are 6,341 speakers in the theater and you will notice the great quality as you will feel sound vibrating from all around you even reverberating within you. It's truly a psychedelic experience. Each seat has three speakers per seat. Two are behind your head in the headrest and there is one in the seat in front of you.
This is a modern show, using not only stunning performers, but also 28 video projectors and two 20-foot-high by 100-foot-wide screens.
I enjoyed the collective nature of this show. Usually in a typical Cirque du Soleil show there are primarily solo features, showing death defying trapeze artists and incredibly flexible gymnasts. You can get mesmerized watching a single performer. Love Las Vegas is much more of a group activity. There is so much happening on the stage at all times rarely do you focus on one star. It is a group collection and the focus is the music.
Love Las Vegas shows in the LOVE Theater at the Mirage at 7:00 and 9:30 p.m. Thursday through Monday, dark Tuesday and Wednesday. It is approximately 90 minutes long and it is truly one of the best shows in Las Vegas.

I have been interested in sneakers for almost 3 years. I have always worn sneakers, but it was not until the beginning of high school that finding and buying the right pair caught my interest. I became very interested in finding that pair of sneakers that stands out a little more than the rest.
I think that my interest in sneakers flourished because of a general rise in my clothing awareness. I became more aware of my style, and sneakers became the centrepiece. I started to buy more and more shoes, and as a natural result of this I increasingly began to talk with people who shared my interest.
My favorite pair through the last to years has been my Nike Air Max TN. They are exquisite to walk in, and I can use them with a lot of my clothes. I also find that the fact that they are an older model, which you do not see every day, makes them a bit more special.
I personally believe that shoes tells a lot about a person. This believe combined with my great interest in sneakers means that if I meet you, the first thing I'll notice about you will be your shoes.
I have discovered that I have something in common with a whole lot of people: The sneaker community. To get feedback on Instagram on one's shoes and show a common interest in a pair is something I like a whole lot. I find it very exciting to be able to keep up with he latest, and to get inspiration for new pairs.


St. Louis, like all other cities, saw an ebb and flow of agencies over time. Because of international consolidation, many of the local large shops became part of world-wide conglomerates, which gave rise to boutique shops in the market.
Still, many memorable campaigns had their roots in St. Louis, and the city has been home to many creative people.

@clyde said in Where to (legally) acquire content to play on RetroPie:
But to justify using illegal roms by saying "we will get the ROMs one way or the other" is a lame excuse for ignoring other's rights
I think you've got how this works backwards.
I'm not a pirate because I do whatever the hell I want.
I do whatever the hell I want because I'm a pirate. Arr!
in this case those of the copyright holders.
Copyright is intended to promote progress, not stop people from running decades old software on whatever devices they own which they can get working. If game companies aren't selling ROMs then screw them. They should have been on top of this 15 years ago.
But if you ignore other's rights that easily, why should anyone respect yours?
If I'm using DRM then they shouldn't, because DRM takes away individual physical private property rights, which are more important because they are a natural right, while copyright is an artificial convenience.
Now batten down yer hatches, landlubber, or I'll make ye walk the plank! Yo ho ho and a bottle of ROMs!

How about this one: It is a company's job to compete with what's readily available. I'm not going to try and help them if they're incapable of this. (A good example is SEGA Genesis Classics Collection on Steam. It's basically just a bunch of roms, but I bought it because it presents itself really well and has workshop integration.)

So, every time other's rights don't suit your needs, you think you're right to ignore them? Again, why should anyone respect your rights, then? Do you want to live in a world where everyone's rights are naught the moment they're inconvenient to someone else?
There are no "natural rights". Rights are granted to you by people (peer groups, societies, organisations etc.) Try to go into the wilderness and see if nature respects your right to life and physical integrity.
Where did you get this differentiation from other than your convenience anyway?

I'm not sure what you want to say with this. Do you mean that companies can and should compete with cheap or even free illegal copies of their rightful property? And/or that they have some kind of unwritten (maybe moral) obligation to make their property available? If you didn't mean either of that, please explain it a bit further.

Well then, you've got nothing to complain about.

It's not the wilderness which makes natural rights natural. It's the law of human nature. [Video Redacted]

So, you agree that there are no natural rights? Then please make your argument again without them. If not, please refrain from rhetoric cop-outs and stay on topic.
It's not the wilderness which makes natural rights natural. It's the law of human nature. [Video Moderated]
So, now there's a "law of human nature" that explains "natural rights" (for humans)? Please explain both without just referring to one another and how they apply to individual private property rights but not to copyright, which was your initial argument.
So, you agree that there are no natural rights?
Absolutely not. I'm just saying that if you were correct that there are no natural rights then there could be no artificial rights either, for what is artificial is always formed out of what is natural. And if there are no artificial rights then there's nothing for you to complain about when it comes to copyright.
So, now there's a "law of human nature" that explains "natural rights" (for humans)?
John Locke, Second Treatise on Government. Read it, then come back.
Absolutely not. I'm just saying that if you were correct that there are no natural rights then there could be no artificial rights either, for what is artificial is always formed out of what is natural.
So, there have to be natural cars in the world, because without them there couldn't be artificial cars?
And if there are no artificial rights then there's nothing for you to complain about when it comes to copyright.
I complain about your still unexplained claim that individual private property is "natural" whereas copyright is "artificial". Regardless whether you're right or not, you didn't demonstrate your position the least.
Now I know where you're coming from. You could've saved us time and effort by mentioning that when I asked you for your source six days ago.
As for Locke, although I, like many thinkers in and since his times, don't share his views because of various flaws and contradictions I see within them, I'll meet you there for the sake of the argument.
As far as I understand Locke (I'm no expert in 17th century philosophy), he sees two ways to gain private property: one's own work and voluntary transfer. So, how can you claim property of roms that you didn't put work into and that weren't given to you voluntarily by their creators? Don't they own them by Locke's laws based on the work they put into them? Shouldn't you respect that property-by-work?
Locke also forbids "spoiling", i.e. taking more than you need. Based on your position, I suspect you may have more roms than you can ever play. If so, isn't that also against Locke's philosophy?
P.S.: Note to the moderators: I don't want to hijack this thread. If our discussion is overly off-topic, please give us a quick sign.
Think about what I said. Think real hard. Is that what I said? Is that even anything remotely similar to what I said? Is that really even analogous to what I said?
Obviously not.
Artificial metal constructions like cars are made out of naturally occurring metals. If there were no naturally occurring metals, there could be no artificial metal constructions.
Locke's labor theory of property defines the right of physical private property as a natural right, and it only applies to physical goods. I said that copyright is not a natural right: it is artificially created by a social contract. The purpose of copyright isn't to protect authors: it is to promote progress. (meaning the creation of new works) I'll try and support creators where I can to encourage the creation of new works, but I have no respect for the copyrights of companies who aren't creating new works and aren't even re-releasing their old works in a convenient format.
Yes, but that's not analogue to what you said about rights. You stated that artificial rights need prior natural rights, not some other natural resources rights may be derived from, e.g. humans' brains and the practical need to organize their populations. Please demonstrate why artificial rights can't be derived from other natural resources.
Locke's labor theory of property defines the right of physical private property as a natural right, and it only applies to physical goods.
Yes, that's one of the flaws of his 17th century philosophy. Next to proclaim natural laws a priori on the basis of a creator god "giving" the world to humans.
I said that copyright is not a natural right: it is artificially created by a social contract.
So, you're breaking the social contract of your society. By what right? And, like I asked before, why should society respect any of your rights then? Do you want to live in a society where everyone breaks the social contract whenever he or she pleases? (Yes, I'm grazing Kant's categorical imperative here.)
The purpose of copyright isn't to protect authors: it is to promote progress. (meaning the creation of new works) I'll try and support creators where I can to encourage the creation of new works, but I have no respect for the copyrights of companies who aren't creating new works and aren't even re-releasing their old works in a convenient format.
So, you're only ignoring copyrights whose holders are not creating new works? I highly doubt that, because I think most of them do, but if actually so, how do you determine that? Can you give some examples of rom copyright holders that aren't creating new works?
How exactly does (your) convenience matter in the question whether (copy)rights of others should be respected or not? Do others' rights become null and void if they don't cater our convenience? How about your rights when you don't cater others' convenience?

I love to see a good copyright discussion! One of the innovations of modern times, we're still seeing what affect it's having on culture.
It seems relevant to mention that one of the two criteria for determining whether something is "Fair Use" in United States law is whether by making a copy of the intellectual property without permission deprives its creator of income.
Regardless of jurisdiction or the historical application of this fair use criterion, a lot of people who emulate feel do believe that it is morally acceptable to make a copy of a protected work if its owners have abandoned it or for other reasons have chosen not to make the copyrighted work commercially available. There are innumerable examples of this, and a whole term "abandonware" to describe it.
Copying abandonware would probably not be fair use in most cases, but I think it's possible to make an argument that it's in the spirit of copyright law.
dankcushions Global Moderator @markwkidd last edited by dankcushions
@markwkidd that argument is difficult to make these days. many games that were considered abandonware, and so many of the retro console games are now available officially.
even games once thought to be in impossible license hell like windjammers and system shock 1/2 have been reissued.
retro games are only getting (officially) more available, not less.

@dankcushions said in Where to (legally) acquire content to play on RetroPie:
I think that there is a strong argument to be made that the emulation and abandonware scene with its loose attitude towards copyright on old games is exactly why more of these titles are now available again.
If someone believes in the idea that it is morally neutral or even positive to share unavailable software, it's something to celebrate when the software in question comes back into circulation. And if one has that attitude, one should stop sharing specific software once it is available again! :D

There is also an argument to be said of the excessive perpetuity of copyright where original creators have long since been out of the picture and would never see any monetary gain from a renewed release.
More often than not companies squat on IP after it's been resold after bankruptcy multiple times and it's rare if any creators get any percentage of their creation at all as it's typically absorbed into the IP of a company without retaining any personal rights for creation. Imo as far as US law is concerned 70 years is far too long considering the obsolete mediums of many technologies used, and it's only thanks to the so called pirates that any of this is preserved. Because there's one thing that's for sure, companies won't preserve them.

Herb I agree 100% with you on this point. In the early days of copyright when terms were shorter copyright was , in my opinion, better balanced to help encourage the creation of new work.

Almost no thought goes into US intellectual property protection other than how much money can be made from term extensions. I'm a big proponent of public domain laws and the potential benefits they have to enrich a shared culture in ways we can't immediately imagine. However, I constantly find myself discussing the value of legitimately limited protection with both creators and consumers alike. The creators perspective I at least understand, but when talking about something like the endless extensions Disney is afforded, consumers often seem to have a favorable bias to such companies and will argue that similar entities should be protected in perpetuity for no other reason than sentimentality. The narrow view on this can be frustrating and a smart company can even use this public opinion to sway lawmakers.
One of my hobbies is remastering, restoring and even releasing in a free and limited capacity, films that have never and most likely will never be released in a consumer-ready format for one reason or another. While my efforts and those like me are admittedly illegal, the alternative is that these films will be lost to time and erased from our shared culture forever.
Yes, but that's not analogue to what you said about rights.
Yes it is.
Please demonstrate why artificial rights can't be derived from other natural resources.
Oh, that's because of David Hume's is-ought gap. There is absolutely no way to logically deduce any moral conclusion using only non-moral premises. In order to get any moral conclusion, you will need a moral premise. So natural rights are the only kind of thing which artificial rights could be constructed out of, since anything else would violate this rule.
Next to proclaim natural laws a priori on the basis of a creator god "giving" the world to humans.
That's the only grounds on which I'd be willing to listen to a defense of copyright, since I do believe in God and I would reject any atheist alternative.
So, you're breaking the social contract of your society. By what right?
I think rights are arranged in a hierarchy, with individual natural rights at the top and artificial rights coming along later. What we've gotten in our society is an "intellectual property" regime so extreme that it ends up undermining other rights which are much more basic. (higher in the hierarchy) Specifically, it's putting companies above people to their benefit and our detriment.
I don't respect copyright in the abstract just because a piece of paper or some company says so. I respect creators and try to support good ones where I can. But I don't let silly, stupid "laws" written by lobbyists undermine individual freedom to think, create or experience history.

London and Paris have emerged as the most expensive cities in Europe for students, while Budapest is the best choice for those on a shoestring budget.
That's according to a new report from online student housing site Uniplaces, which examined the cost of living in 15 cities across Europe.
Cash-strapped students looking to study or live abroad will want to consider Budapest, where they can live on €360 a month ($424).
How? The average cost for renting a room in an apartment is €249 ($293) a month, while the cost of food in the Hungarian capital averages an affordable €25 ($29) a week.
Students can also live in cities like Prague, Porto, Warsaw and Lisbon for about €500 ($590) a month.
At the other end of the spectrum, young people eyeing a year abroad in London, Paris and Milan will need to budget about €1,000 ($1180) in monthly expenses, due mostly to the high cost of lodging.
Overall, experts at Uniplaces advise trying to limit the cost of accommodation to 30 percent of your monthly budget.


Sydney Indesign is done and dusted for another year and what a great one it's been! As Sydney Indesign Insiders we took to the streets, pounded the pavement and sipped many a champers over the 3-day event with our favourite showrooms and exhibitors in and around the five precincts of Sydney's finest design locales.
Events-a-plenty kicked off on Thursday afternoon with a sneaky peak into the Yellowtrace & KE-ZU collaboration (including masked squares of Anna Spiro & Porters 'floor paper' and a life-size projection of a Milan interior) at the KE-ZU showroom. Then it was over to the Bludot's Frat Party and Corporate Culture's showroom relaunch with food served atop chairs atop tables atop Bolon flooring and champagne sipped from Waterford crystal. The showroom has absolutely blossomed with a bounty of beautiful product, art and an exceptionally beautiful paint scheme from Murobond's collaboration with Mr Jason Grant. We were particularly taken with Le Corbusier's absolutely iconic Lampe de Marseille and took a much needed sit-down in Fritz Hansen's new armchair, the Ro chair by Jaime Hayon.
We ventured to the 3000sqm Galleria at Sydney Technology Park at Eveleigh on Friday starting right in the middle (importantly) at the Veggie Patch Van to meander around through new collections from established brands such as Marimekko, Basil Bangs and Cibo sitting side by side with prototypes from Launch Pad. The old rail yard provided an inspired and truly unique architectural backdrop to the stands. It was atmospherically grand yet maintained a sense of intimacy for an afternoon wander. The skate ramp made entirely from Mafi Timber was pretty impressive stuff.
Hot chocolate was served at Spence & Lyda as the sun set and the evening festivities continued long into the night at Precision Flooring, Reece & Winnings.
Despite missing Saturday's finest we kept up with all the action on Instagram with some of our many favourites Jardan, Yellowtrace, Zuster and Inlite.
A big thank you to Sydney Indesign for an excellent 3 days celebrating our amazing Australian design community. It was an absolute pleasure to be a Sydney Indesign Insider and we are looking forward to see how the event develops next year!


Western blot analysis of extracts from HeLa, C2C12, C6, COS, MvLu cells and guinea pig neutrophils (GPN), using β-Actin Antibody.
β-Actin Antibody detects endogenous levels of β-actin. This antibody may cross-react with the γ-actin (cytoplasmic) isoform. It does not cross-react with α-skeletal, α-cardiac, α-vascular smooth, or γ-enteric smooth muscle isoforms.
Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to amino-terminal residues of human β-actin. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.


At low speed, the acoustic power radiated by electrical transport systems can be dominated by a special source of noise called audible magnetic noise. This noise comes from magnetic vibrations due to magnetic forces, which are especially strong in traction motors. Among them Maxwell forces excite the stator structure, creating harmful resonances during starting or braking.
Firstly, this paper presents the phenomenon of magnetic resonances due to Maxwell forces in traction induction motors. Two principal noise sources are analytically identified, namely slotting harmonics and Pulse-Width Modulation harmonics.
A fully analytical model of the electrical and vibro-acoustic behavior of a traction motor and its PWM supply is then described. This model is validated at different stages (electrical, mechanical and acoustic) using several vibro-acoustic tools (experimental modal analysis, operational modal analysis, operational deflection shapes, spectrograms) and numerical methods (electromagnetic and mechanical FEM, acoustic BEM). On the ground of this model, main magnetic lines are analytically characterized.
Finally, this model is coupled with a multi-objective optimization method in order to design a new ALSTOM squirrel-cage induction motor by acting on the rotor geometry and the PWM strategy. The average and maximum magnetic noise levels during starting are minimized, while keeping the same traction characteristics. Two designs are chosen and manufactured. These prototypes are tested and successfully compared to simulations, and a reduction of 15 dB is observed when running the motors in real conditions. It is also shown that the choice of the switching strategy has a 15 dB influence on starting noise.


I have a column in my data table that has over 80 unique (nominal) text values. I would like to take these 80 nominal values and reduce them to 10 in JSL by combing values that are not into the top ten (by amount of occurances) into a group called "other." What is the simplest way to accomplish this in JSL? Thanks for your help!
I'm not sure what the ultimate goal is for your request, but if it was to create a pareto-style chart, you can accomplish this without scripting or creating a new column.
How do I create a column which lists frequency of the unique text values?
@jerry_cooper, thanks for your help! When using the "Packed" bar style, is there a way to label the bar with the other categories? My quantity labels for each bar only appear on the non-packed bars. Thanks for your help.
For my application, the causes may change in priority from time to time. I would like JSL to automatically recalculate the top ten causes each time the Pareto Plot is generated.
@twillkickers, the answer to your question is "yes", with JSL you can manipulate either the Graph Builder or the Pareto Plot to provide the display you are looking for. However, the Packed Bar option in Graph Builder gets you almost everything you want (except the label for the combined total of your bottom causes). To display this total will require some manipulation as mentioned previously. Something to consider before deciding whether the additional manipulations are worth the effort is that this total is actually redundant information – the relative bar height and the y-axis visually convey this information.
All of these actions can be pasted together to create a script. If you need help with this, I would suggest consulting the Help->Books->Scripting Guide and the Help->Scripting Index and search for "New Column" to get the syntax for creating a new formula column in your data table.

"Good Things Come," A Canadian Horse Racing Novel
By Linda Shantz
Imported from my Canadian Thoroughbred in Fine Art Blog
I started the story that became Good Things Come when I was about eight. My favourite books as a child were The Black Stallion series and Marguerite Henry's Black Gold and King of the Wind, and while what I wrote way back then was definitely influenced by them, I was writing the book I wanted to read, which was about the Queen's Plate instead of the usual Derby stories. I had a fascination with the Plate from very early on, and never understood why there weren't novels about it!
While the basic premise of the story didn't change – a couple of twentysomethings with a dream prepare a quirky young Thoroughbred to run in Canada's most prestigious race, the Queen's Plate – the depth of my knowledge expanded, as I grew up and dedicated my life to working with these athletes. The result is my debut novel, released this fall. If you'd like to read the first chapter, you can sign up to my list here.
Available worldwide in Kindle and paperback format though Amazon.
Look for the sequel in the spring of 2021!

The holidays are filled with magic and joy. The magic of spending time with family and loved ones. The magic of believing in miracles, and the joy of watching the eyes of children shine as they unwrap heartfelt gifts. For the third year in a row, Kellogg's Rice Krispies is partnering with The Salvation Army for the #TreatsforToys program; a fun and delicious way to turn treats into toys and help make holiday magic happen for the less fortunate kids in our communities.
My daughter had a lot of fun making delicious treats and was very excited to upload them to the #TreatsforToys website to help others.
Stir in Kellogg's Rice Krispies cereal until well coated. Using lightly buttered spatula, press into buttered 3.5 L (13×9″) pan.
Allow the mixture to cool. Then cut into desired shapes. Best served the same day.
The Kellogg's Rice Krispies #TreatsforToys program helps bring a smile to children in need by encouraging Canadians to make a toy-shaped Rice Krispies treat and share a picture of it on Twitter, Instagram or Facebook using the #TreatsforToys hashtag. For every image uploaded from now until December 21, 2015, Kellogg's Rice Krispies will donate $20 to The Salvation Army to buy a toy for a child in need during the festive season.
Checkout the treats that Canadians have made and to get some great ideas for yourself, visit: www.treatsfortoys.ca. Or, you can get creative and design your own.

Frozen 2 (2019)
"Frozen 2" stars Kristen Bell, Idina Menzel, Jonathan Groff, Josh Gad, Evan Rachel Wood, Alfred Molina, and Sterling K. Brown. Released on November 22, 2019, the film has Anna, Elsa, and their friends journeying beyond Arendelle.
The film is directed by Jennifer Lee and Chris Buck. It is a sequel to the 2013 film, "Frozen", which was also directed by Lee and Buck, and it serves as the 58th film in the Walt Disney Animation Studios library. Well, we all knew this was going to happen. Given how immensely popular the first film was, it's inevitable that Disney will continue the franchise with a full-length sequel. It has been six years since "Frozen" made its way to the big screen and infected our hearts and minds with its unforgettable songs and its wonderful story about the power of sisterhood. Ranging from its best-selling merchandise to its short films, this is one franchise that refuses to let itself go, whether you like it or not. I'm part of the population that really enjoys the heck out of "Frozen". In fact, I enjoyed it so much that I saw it in the theater at least three times during its theatrical release. It is one of my favorite Disney animated films because of its well-executed story, memorable characters, vibrant animation, and of course, the songs. Without this film, I wouldn't have met my new Disney Princess crush, Queen Elsa, and I wouldn't have included Hans on my list of movie characters that I would love to punch in the face repeatedly. You'll know what I mean when you watch it for yourself. I also thought the "Frozen" shorts were pretty entertaining, even though they're not on par with the original. So now we have the ultimate test for the Disney team: to see if its theatrical follow-up is worthy enough to continue the global phenomenon. They made a great sequel to "Wreck-It Ralph" last year, so let's see if they can do the same with "Frozen".
Taking place three years after the first film, the story once again centers on Queen Elsa (Menzel) and Princess Anna (Bell), two sisters who live peacefully in Arendelle with their friends Kristoff (Groff), Olaf the snowman (Gad), and Sven the reindeer. However, their lives take a sudden left turn when Elsa starts hearing a mysterious voice and an unknown source of magic arrives to threaten Arendelle. With the kingdom in danger once again, Elsa and the gang embark on a perilous journey to the enchanted forest in order to solve the origin of Elsa's powers and find a way to save their home. This is another animated sequel that expands not only the world created for its predecessor, but also the relationships between the characters. It is also designed to answer a few questions that were left unanswered in the first film, including the one that involves Elsa's ice powers, so there's no need for us to keep asking ourselves these questions for the rest of our lives. While it's nice for me to revisit my favorite characters and learn about the mysteries surrounding the first film, all that matters to me is to see whether or not the trip to the unknown is worth taking. So what's my take on this highly-anticipated sequel? Well, let me answer that question with another question. Do you remember the low-quality sequels that Disney used to make in the 2000s, like "Cinderella 2", "Mulan 2", and "The Jungle Book 2"? I do, and this film surprisingly reminded me of those types of movies. The only difference is that they put some effort into the animation. To its credit, "Frozen 2" didn't disappoint in solving the mysteries that were left unsolved in the first film and providing a decent amount of enjoyability for the kids. As for everything else, despite having the same team that worked on the original return for the sequel, its heart was about as cold as Hans' heart. "Frozen 2" had everything it needed to create a compelling and emotional story that delves deep into the first film's themes, but the direction the filmmakers took for those elements prevented it from reaching the same heights as its brilliant predecessor. There were a couple of parts that weren't well-earned in terms of the emotional impact and there were also some parts that were dark just for the sake of being dark. When you look at the other animated sequels like "Kung Fu Panda 2" and "How to Train Your Dragon 2", these films have dark moments that give the characters and the situations that they're in a sense of urgency and make you want to know what's going to happen next. For "Frozen 2", they tried to do the same thing, but the way they executed those dark moments felt a bit forced to me, which resulted in an unrewarding follow-up that only exists to sell more merchandise. This is the same problem I had with "The Secret Life of Pets 2" a few months ago. It was a cute movie, but it didn't identify itself as more than just a way to put out more toys. If you don't like these types of sequels, "Frozen 2" isn't going to win you over. There were a few bright spots that I actually liked despite its disappointing plot, such as the voice cast and the enjoyable characters. Menzel and Bell both delivered some great chemistry together as Elsa and Anna respectively, and Josh Gad was once again really funny as Olaf. There was this one scene involving Olaf that got me laughing out loud, but everything else from him didn't quite match the same amount of hilarity as his sense of humor in the first film. One thing you should know about Olaf is that if you don't like him in the first film and the shorts, you won't like him in this. If you do, then you'll like him even more in the sequel. He's adorable and innocent as always, for better or for worse. As for Kristoff, who is voiced by Groff, he has a subplot that involves him trying to ask Anna to marry him. It's cute, but obviously cliched. But what about the new characters, like Lieutenant Destin Mattias (Brown) and Yelana (Martha Plimpton), the leader of the Northuldra tribe in the enchanted forest? All I could say about them is that they're fine additions, even though they weren't anything too special. Similar to the first film, the animation in "Frozen 2" was gorgeous and immersive, plain and simple. Whether the plot is good or not, you have to admit that it's hard to ignore its stunning animation style from its beautiful environments to the musical sequences. Speaking of which, let's talk about the film's songs. These songs include the likes of "All is Found" by Evan Rachel Wood, "Into the Unknown" by Idina Menzel and Aurora (who voiced the mysterious voice), and "Lost in the Woods" by Jonathan Groff. Like the new characters, they're fine, but nothing too special. These are the types of songs that you would normally hear from a Disney direct-to-video sequel from the 2000s, and while they're not entirely bad, they just don't have the sparks that made the likes of "Let It Go" and "For the First Time in Forever" such massive hits. I do like "Into the Unknown" because of Menzel's amazing singing voice, but I found the "Lost in the Woods" sequence a bit weird to me. It's like I was watching a music video from a popular male artist who's singing about his feelings for his love. It's strangely hokey, but I got a good smile from how hokey it was.
Overall, "Frozen 2" is a sequel that every young "Frozen" fanatic will go nuts for. Unfortunately, for everybody else, its substance isn't powerful enough to thaw its cold soul. While the characters are likable and the animation is simply attractive, it doesn't have a good reason as to why it should exist other than to solve unanswered questions from its predecessor and to sell more merchandise. Due to its disappointing story, its unrewarding emotional depth, and its average songs, this is a pretty big letdown from the Walt Disney Animation Studios team. I was really hoping that it would become the next "Ralph Breaks the Internet", but no, I was wrong. They still got a lot of work to do in terms of full-length theatrical sequels. If you like the first film, you may or may not like the sequel. The kids will enjoy the heck out of "Frozen 2". As for the adults, it'll depend on what they want out of this one. Otherwise, just wait until next year for Disney's new original project, "Raya and the Last Dragon".

Elidurus the Dutiful (Welsh: Elidyr map Morydd) was a legendary king of the Britons as recounted by Geoffrey of Monmouth. He was the third son of King Morvidus and brother of Gorbonianus, Archgallo, Ingenius, and Peredurus.
Elidurus became king following the deposition of his brother, Archgallo. He found his brother wandering in a forest five years after Elidurus was crowned. He embraced him as a brother and took Archgallo in secrecy to a nearby city. Faking a sickness, he summoned all the nobles of the kingdom to that city to visit him. Once there, Elidurus demanded they all repledge their allegiance to Archgallo under penalty of death. Once done, Elidurus took Archgallo to York and removed his own crown and reinstated Archgallo as king of the Britons. For this, he was surnamed the Dutiful.
Ten years later, Archgallo died and Elidurus became king once again. He reigned for a few years in the manner of his eldest brother, Gorbonianus. Soon after, though, his two younger brothers, Ingenius and Peredurus, built armies and attacked Elidurus. They seized him and locked him in a guarded tower in Trinovantum. He remained locked in the tower for more than seven years.
When his youngest brother, Peredurus, finally died, the realm returned to Elidurus for a third time. He reigned for a short while in justice and virtue then died. He was succeeded by an unnamed son of Gorbonianus. His son, Gerennus, would later become king of Britain.

Q: stored procedure in informix I tried to create a sample stored procedure in informix but it gives me a syntax error. Can any one say whats wrong with this?
drop procedure if exists sample();
create dba procedure sample()
update employee set last_name="Tietz"  where emp_id = '2537';
end procedure;

Thanks

A: The IF EXISTS clause is only available in very recent versions of Informix. I've got a couple of instances handy: 11.50.FC2 and 11.70.FC7. The statement DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS foobar() works on the later one only.
The rest of it looks OK to me.

Entombed AD - Dead Dawn
Joey Repulsive (7 reviews)
Oh here we go. Before I get into the review let me tell you why this band exists, other than the fact that they hate our ear drums. The last active line-up of Entombed had a falling out with founding guitarist Alex Hellid. Alex left/got kicked out, depending on who you ask, and the remaining line-up continued without him. A legal battle ensued of the right to the Entombed name. Singer Lars-Göran "LG" Petrov Petrov was awarded the right to use the band name in connection with future recording and touring activities, a decision which Hellid appealed without success. In order to avoid another legal battle the line-up of Lars-Göran Petrov, Olle Dahlstedt, Nico Elgstrand, and Victor Brandt continued as Entombed A.D.
I can honestly say after making it through this album, if these guys decided to continue under an original name, no one would care. Guess they figured it be better for them to ride the coat tails of Entombed's legacy. They may still use the Entombed name, but this is not Entombed. This kind of phoned in, half-assed, heavy metal I would expect from a local band playing a dive bar, but not form a legacy act like Entombed, but like I said this is not Entombed.
This album was a chore to get through. The first thing that struck me upon listening to this album was how bad the production is, it sounds like they recorded on analog, but I've heard better recordings on analog. The lyrics are repetitive and dumb, they sound like something a meathead would write. The instrumentals are no better. The few solo's are nothing more than basic scales speed up. I breathed a sigh of relieve when this album ended.
I have nothing else to say about this album except, Entombed A.D., you're not fooling anyone, it's time to hang it up. All you guys are doing is dragging the Entombed name through the mud and tarnishing the legacy of Entombed.

The Cardinals lost key safeties Tony Jefferson and D.J. Swearinger cheap jerseys wholesale in free agency a year ago but didn't skip a beat. Bethea proved to be a nice signing in free agency as he finished with a team-best five interceptions, and Baker was a great second-round find in the draft.NIKE NFL Ford was a key special teams player as a rookie and hopes to find an increased role in 2018. Miller could again battle for a roster spot.
The big question at this position centers on Mathieu. NFL Sunglasses He said last week that the Cardinals asked him to take a pay cut,Oakland Raiders Jersey and it is unclear whether he is willing to do so. A resolution will need to come by Wednesday, when a chunk of money in Mathieu's contract becomes guaranteed.
"I think, obviously, in the next week or so we'll have to make a decision," Mathieu said on Saturday. "We'll all know exactly what's going on." (UPDATE: Mathieu was released on Wednesday.)
Branch, the lone safety scheduled to hit free agency, played extremely well for nine games but tore his ACL against the Seahawks. Green Bay Packers Jersey Branch proved in 2017 he could still perform at a high level, but has only played in 36 games the past five years and will be 32 years old next season.
The Cardinals relied heavily on three safeties Philadelphia Eagles Jersey the past several years and defensive backs coach David Merritt said that will likely be the case again in 2018. The group as currently constructed is one of the most talented positions on the team.
