Q: Adding a cookie to DocumentRequest Using AngleSharp v 0.9.9, I'm loading a page with OpenAsync which sets a bunch of cookies, something like:
var configuration = Configuration.Default.WithHttpClientRequester().WithCookies();
var currentContext = BrowsingContext.New(configuration);
// ....
var doc = context.OpenAsync(url, token);

This works fine and I can see the cookies have been set. For example, I can do this:
var cookieProvider = currentContext.Configuration.Services.OfType<ICookieProvider>().First() as MemoryCookieProvider;

And examine it in the debugger and see the cookies in there (for domain=.share.state.nm.us)
Then I need to submit a post:
var request = new DocumentRequest(postUrl);
request.Method = HttpMethod.Post;
request.Headers["Content-Type"] = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
request.Headers["User-Agent"] = userAgent;
//...

Which eventually gets submitted:
var download = loader.DownloadAsync(request);

And I can see (using Fiddler) that it's submitting the cookies from the cookieProvider.
However, I need to add a cookie (and possible change the value in another) and no matter what I try, it doesn't seem to include it. For example, I do this:
cookieProvider.Container.Add(new System.Net.Cookie()
{
    Domain = ".share.state.nm.us",
    Name = "psback",
    Value = "somevalue",
    Path = "/"
});

And again I can examine the cookieProvider in the debugger and see the cookie I set. But when I actually submit the request and look in fiddler, the new cookie isn't included.
This seems like it should be really simple, what is the correct way to set a new cookie and have it included in subsequent requests?

A: I think there are two potential ways to solve this.
either use document.Cookie for setting a new cookie (would require an active document that already is at the desired domain) or
Use a Filter for getting / manipulating the request before its send. This let's you really just change the used cookie container before actually submitting.
The Filter is set in the DefaultLoader configuration. See https://github.com/AngleSharp/AngleSharp/blob/master/src/AngleSharp/ConfigurationExtensions.cs#L152.

The proportions have not changed since the royal commission into youth detention.
All 38 children held in detention in the Northern Territory are Aboriginal, a parliamentary committee was told last week.
The NT Families Department was being questioned on June 20 over how the rate of Aboriginal children in detention had changed since the royal commission.
The inquiry was announced in 2016 after ABC's Four Corners program showed footage of prison guards assaulting boys held in juvenile detention.
The juvenile justice royal commission's final report will hand federal and NT governments a blueprint to close a dark chapter inside Australia's youth prisons.
"As of today, 100% of the children in detention are Aboriginal," said Jeanette Kerr, the deputy chief executive of operations for the department.
"The proportions have not changed since the royal commission."
She said there were 17 children in Darwin's Don Dale detention centre and 21 in Alice Springs.
"In my electorate of Nhulunbuy, we want to see our Elders in control of raypirri – or discipline – for our young people. We want troubled young people out on homelands with oversight from Elders, and access to education from our people and through the school system.
Speaking to the committee, former Territory Families minister Dale Wakefield said: "It is an area that we are going to need to continue to develop.
Meanwhile, staff unions have described a series of violent incidents at the Don Dale detention centre this month which have not been made public by the NT Government.
"It's been at crisis point for quite a while now, and it needs to get fixed and it needs to have things put in place to make sure it doesn't happen again," the CPSU's Kay Densley told the ABC.
"There was a riot a week or so ago, we've had incidents when they've been on the roof, etcetera, and these are the sorts of things that happen when there's no staffing numbers and untrained staff, it's very dangerous."
In 2017, the royal commission called for sweeping changes to address the "shocking and systemic failures" and recommended ending detention for children under 14, except for serious crimes.
Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull said his government would "carefully consider" the recommendations but said they were mostly the responsibility of the NT Government.
Michael Gunner takes up the new role in the Labor government's first reshuffle since its landslide election victory two years ago.

Michelin Celebrates the Vibrant Nordic Dining Scene with Three Special Awards
News & Views 2 minutes 20 February 2019
The winners were lauded at the launch of the MICHELIN Guide Nordic Countries 2019.
awards Nordic Michelin Guide
The MICHELIN Guide Nordic Countries 2019 launched on Monday in Aarhus, Denmark, at a live streaming ceremony attended by 500 guests, chefs and members of the press. (Watch it here.)
As well as announcing all the new recipients of stars and Bib Gourmands in the countries of Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden, Gwendal Poullennec, international director of the MICHELIN Guides, also presented three special awards:
Young Chef 2019
Sustainable Restaurant 2019
Welcome & Service Award 2019
Here's your guide to who won them and why:
The Nordic Guide Young Chef of the Year: Poul Andrias Ziska.
Poul Andrias Ziska
Nordic Guide Young Chef of the Year
The Michelin Award for the Nordic Guide Young Chef of the Year 2019 went to Poul Andrias Ziska of KOKS restaurant in the Faroe Islands.
The 28-year-old Ziska grew up in Tórshavn, the capital of the Faroe Islands, and his first experience in the food industry was a job in a pizzeria at the age of 14. He later worked under Leif Sørensen—who was perhaps his greatest influence—and has completed stages at Geranium, Noma and Mugaritz.
After a brief stint at Geranium in Copenhagen, Ziska returned to the Faroe Islands in January 2014 to take over as head chef of KOKS, a picturesque 18th century former farmhouse in a beautiful yet remote location high in the mountains.
In 2017, the Faroe Islands were added to the MICHELIN Guide Nordic Countries for the first time and KOKS entered the selection with one Michelin star.
Two years later in the 2019 guide, KOKS has been awarded two stars, an award held by only 10 restaurants across the Nordic countries.
Michelin inspectors were hugely impressed by Ziska's maturity, forward-thinking creativity and respect for the wonderful ingredients grown, fished and foraged from the unique Faroese landscape.
His pride and knowledge in the use of tried and tested traditional techniques such as fermentation, salting, pickling and curing, allied with a modern approach, creates terrific dishes with purity, complexity and a superb balance of flavors.

The Sustainable Restaurant of the Year Award goes to Credo in Trondheim, Norway.
Heidi Bjerkan
Sustainable Restaurant of the Year
The Michelin Award for the Nordic Guide Sustainable Restaurant of the Year 2019 went to Credo in Trondheim, Norway, a restaurant that moved to its current location in an impressive modern urban development in 2018.
It is set in a former factory that once made stainless steel milk tanks; the conversion of this 1947 building itself is a good example of sustainable redevelopment, with its astute and striking use of a brownfield site.
Heidi Bjerkan, the experienced chef/owner of Credo, grew up in Trondheim, where she spent much time on her grandfather's boat. Her career in the food industry began when she was 18 years old with a summer job at the Østbanehallen café, and has included an eight-year period as head chef for the Norwegian Royal Family.
Credo was awarded a Michelin star in this year's guide for its creative yet un-showy cooking, which is natural in style and respectful of tradition.
Not only does Credo create superlative cuisine, it also leads the way when it comes to ecological responsibility. This is a restaurant where 'sustainable' is much more than a buzzword and where all of the restaurant's waste is composted to feed the herb and vegetable beds they have on-site.
The restaurant champions the produce of the Trøndelag region, and careful sourcing is key to its ingredient-led 20- to 26-course chef's tasting menu. Central to the restaurant's admirable philosophy is its support of local artisan producers and farms, and it has particularly close ties with Fannremsgården and Skjølberg Søndre in Orkdal.
@Restaurantcredo
The Welcome & Service Award of the Year goes to Henne Kirkeby Kro.
Henne Kirkeby Kro
Paul Cunningham and Garrey Dawson
Welcome & Service Award of the Year
The MICHELIN Guide Nordic Countries Welcome and Service Award 2019 went to Henne Kirkeby Kro in Henne, Denmark.
From the moment you pull up at this beautiful thatched inn until the time comes to return to real life, you find yourself captivated by the magic of Henne.
There's its delightful setting in the Danish countryside, and the technically accomplished, two-Michelin-starred cooking of Paul Cunningham, but it's also the friendliness and warmth of the service team that makes a meal at Henne Kirkeby Kro such a special experience.
Service is overseen by charismatic restaurant manager Garrey Dawson, whose strong presence, composure and kindness make him a real asset to the business. He and his team run the place in a professional yet wonderfully natural manner, making their guests feel instantly at home.
Whether they work in the kitchen or in front-of-house, it is clear to see that every member of the Henne team works together, the result being smooth, organized service that is full of enthusiasm and free from any unnecessary formality.
Dishes are succinctly described and come at an even pace; wines are explained in as much depth as guests require—and if you leave your choice to the sommelier, you won't be disappointed, nor left out of pocket. Bespoke menus are printed out and presented to diners as a keepsake, the kind of attention to detail that ensures a meal at Henne will live long in the memory.

TATT hopes for resolution
THE Telecommunications Authority of TT (TATT) is hoping the divestment of Cable and Wireless Corporation's (CWC) 49 per cent shareholding in state-owned Telecommunications Services of TT (TSTT) will be settled soon. Acting TATT CEO Cynthia Reddock-Downes expressed this optimism to Newsday after a function at the authority's office in Barataria. On March 26, 2015, TATT approved a $3 billion merger between CWC and Columbus Communications, parent company of cable TV provider Flow. Previously on March 12, TATT had "denied" permission for any such merger unless CWC could vow to divest itself of its 49 per cent stake in TSTT, so as to avoid anti-competitiveness in the sector. CWC would then be required to provide an adequate plan for its intended development of Flow/Columbus.
"We are aware that it has taken much longer than expected.When we started off we gave CWC one year and then 18 months in which to complete the project," Reddock-Downes said. TATT wants the entires exercise to be completed as soon as possible. Reddock explained this is important so that " we can remove any anti-competitive possibilities or anti-competitive areas in their still being involved in TSTT extent."
Initiatives have been put in place to ensure that CWC is not involved in the daily operations of TSTT, she added. The authority is monitoring the process but its resolution is largely "up to the players involved".
Reddock-Downes said this includes CWC, the Liberty Group which "has taken responsibility for them" and the majority shareholders, to ensure the process goes through smoothly. TSTT's 51 per cent majority shares are held by Government through the National Enterprises Limited.
She also said the resolution involves " getting people to invest in the 49 per cent that's available to them. Public Utilities Minister Robert Le Hunte said, "The requirement to divest the shares in TSTT is one that has been placed on CWC by the regulator." He recalled that TATT directed CWC to divest its shares in 2015. While this matter is being resolved, Le Hunte was confident there would be no adverse effects on TSTT's operations. "The existing board of directors of TSTT under the chairmanship of Robert Mayers continue to do what is required to ensure that the company remains profitable and fulfill its mandate to the people of TT."
In an interview on Monday, Le Hunte said TSTT has been talking with CWC representatives. " I'm sure the matter is being handled by the Minister of Finance who is the corporation sole."
He indicated that CWC placed their 49 per cent shareholding in a trust. "That needs to be dealt with. I think they now need to determine the conversations about how they are going to deal with that 49 per cent, in light of their own acquisition of the FLOW network

Shakespeare Conquest is one of the funnest classes you can take, as well as one where you'll experience the most growth!
Sure you'll find yourself dropping words like "forsooth" into everyday conversation, and laughing at inside jokes that only you and fellow Shakespeareans will understand, but beyond that, you'll be immersed in another language that will help grow your brain, help you understand the multitude of Shakespeare allusions in our culture and literature, and even better understand the King James Bible.
You'll learn to write better, present your ideas more persuasively, and be more comfortable with your peers.
We hope our students dive right into class and choose to do the reading and writing work, memorization, and participate in the games, acting/tech crew in stage, (as well as be crowned Royalty in a very high brow ceremony), so they can emerge a more intelligent and polished human being (while having a good time!).


He was born Herbert Alexander Charles Reginald St. John Brenon in Dublin, Ireland. He left Ireland for England in 1883 and attended school in London. He immigrated to the United States on the 4th of July, 1896. He married actress Helen Violette Oberg (1885-1955) on 18 February 1904. They had one son, Herbert Cyril Edward Brenon, whom they called Cyril (1906-1981), born while they were abroad in London. Brenon became a naturalized citizen in New York in 1918.
He got a job as a call boy for Augustin Daly's Theater Company in New York in 1896. He traveled and played in stock companies for seven years before teaming up with his wife (who sometimes appeared under the stage name Helen Downing) and performing in vaudeville on the Orpheum and other circuits.
His foray into the moving picture business began when he got a job as a scenario writer for The Old Imperial Company, affectionately called "The Old Imp". Carl Laemmle gave him his first directing opportunity in 1909 with a film called, All For Her. Brenon went on to direct films for Selig, Lubin, Vitagraph, Kalem, Fox, Famous Players-Lasky, United Artists and British Studios . He is credited with "discovering" Richard Barthelmess, Bert Lytell, Mary Brian and Esther Ralston.
He continued to write many of the scenarios for the films that he directed. Although initially outspoken about his opposition to sound films, he made the transition to talkies and directed films up until 1940.
He passed away at the age of 78 in Los Angeles on 21 June, 1958 of a heart ailment. He is interred at Woodlawn Cemetery in the Bronx, New York.

The EB-5 visa for Immigrant Investors is a United States visa created by the Immigration Act of 1990 and is coordinated by the U.S. government office of the United States Citizenship & Immigration Services (USCIS), a department of Homeland Security. This visa provides a method of obtaining a green card for foreign nationals who invest money in the United States.
Permanent resident status based on EB-5 eligibility might be available to investors who have invested – or are actively in the process of investing $1,000,000 – or if the investment is in a new commercial enterprise in a Targeted Employment Area (TEA) -- the required investment is decreased to the $500,000 investment level. A new commercial enterprise includes: the creation of an original business, the purchase of an existing business and restructuring or reorganizing the business to the extent that a new commercial enterprise results, or expanding upon an existing business. An applicant seeking status as an immigrant investor must demonstrate that his/her investment will benefit the United States economy and create full-time employment for no fewer than ten qualified individuals, or maintain the number of existing employees in a "troubled business."

You're the Life...
Cleo's a pararescueman for the US Air Force. When a PJ is called, it's because everyone else has said no. It's one of the most dangerous jobs in the entire military but also one of the most rewarding. It's the reason he doesn't form relationships. He's seen his teammates divorce one by one, and he doesn't want to do that to a woman. Especially one that he's supposed to love. However, nowhere in his grand scheme did he plan for the force that was Rue.
To My...
Rue's life has been rough. What she needs is a break. One that'll distract her from the fact that she's drowning in responsibility. It comes in the form of a dark and dangerous biker who has a habit of putting his life on the line. He gives her the world, and she holds on with both hands, knowing that he only wants to be friends. Or does he?
Flight....
Thinking she knows what's best, she pushes him too far, causing his control to take flight, and Cleo to disappear before the dust settles. One night of passion turns into a year of heartbreak as Rue tries to find the ability to move on from Cleo. He was pretty clear with his wishes, and they didn't include her. Cleo's not through with Rue, though. Not even a little bit. She'll be his. All it'll take is a little bit of...persuasion.
Contains mature themes.

I am an accidental public servant. It was not a career that I had planned or to which I had aspired. When I joined the Australian Public Service under the Administrative Trainee Scheme in 1978 I knew very little about the public service, and the term public policy was not even in my vocabulary. I drifted into the Australian Public Service, largely because I had limited other options.
As it turned out there could have been no better option; no more rewarding a career and nothing more stimulating than the challenges of public policy, particularly in my chosen area of foreign policy.
Shortly I will end over 38 years as a public servant. It might be presumptuous to draw lessons from this career, much less offer advice to the next generation of public service leaders, who will face challenges all of their own. But I do want to say something about the public service as an institution, why the public service matters, the large challenges it faces and why our future will be poorer if they are not met.
I also wish to say a few words about how change in the public service is managed. How should Secretaries go about instituting change? How important are values? How do you make change stick?
My remarks necessarily go also to observations about our political system. So let me say at the outset, because we are in the Caretaker period before an election, that nothing I say today should be seen as a commentary on the election, or on the position or performance of any individual or political party. Indeed, one of the points I wish to emphasise is the need to move away from the tyranny of the current. I hope my remarks will be seen as having a longer shelf life!
The importance of institutions
The case for the public service and public servants is not an easy one to make in Australia. The Australian community is ambivalent about public servants. On the one hand they are seen as rules bound, enjoying overly generous conditions and not particularly energetic. On the other hand, Australians expect a lot from government, perhaps because we began our nationhood as a government enterprise.
We do not have America's sometimes harsh tradition of individual self-reliance. And thankfully, we have never accepted that the disadvantaged are part of the natural order.
Our convict history has deepened this ambivalence towards government. Australians both resent authority and are among the most law abiding people anywhere. When it comes to government, we tend to both complain and obey.
Perhaps because we inherited our public institutions rather than created them, we have not always appreciated just how important institutions are to good governance. And in turn how good governance is the foundation for the prosperity and security of a nation. Indeed, to make the case for the public service is to make the case for institutions.
In the public imagination institutions are seen as belonging to the past and a repository of stuffy traditions. In truth, institutions are fragile living organisms, easily weakened and very hard to repair. Governments forget this to the long term peril of their nations.
We take sound institutions for granted. And yet they are the bedrock of our society.
The parliament, the judiciary and the executive are the anchor points of our liberal democracy. So are cabinet government, a free media, empowered citizens, and respect for the market as the most efficient means to allocate resources under a regulatory system which protects public safety and the public interest.
These are the institutional touch stones of a successful nation and an effective public service is vital to securing that success.
The relationship between ministers and public servants
What makes a strong public service in a liberal democracy? I would emphasise two key elements.
First, a clear understanding of the division of labour and authority between the public servant and the minister.
Knowing the division of authority between ministers and public servants also means knowing when to protect the boundaries.
Ministers should know and respect these boundaries and most of the time they do both. Ministerial staffers can sometimes have a less well developed understanding of the boundaries. Usually, there is a direct correlation between the age of the staffer and the depth of his or her understanding.
The ultimate responsibility for ensuring that the public service does not cross the line however rests with public servants and particularly their leaders.
I have little sympathy for public servants who say they crossed the line because of pressure from a minister or a staffer. Their duty as a public servant is to know where the line is and ensure they stay on the right side of it. And the absolute duty of a Secretary is to ensure that whenever this becomes an issue, the public servant will have the full support of the Secretary in protecting the line – and that the public servant knows in advance that he or she enjoys that support.
There is, for example, no room in our system for staffers to ask for a submission to be withdrawn or to insist on a particular recommendation in a departmental submission. Or to ask to see a submission in draft. These should be no go areas and all public servants should have the confidence of knowing that when they resist such approaches, they will be fully backed up by their departmental leaders.
We have been fortunate that since Federation we have had a high quality Commonwealth public service working to governments which have for the most part understood and respected these foundational principles. It has also been an adaptive public service which, while it may no longer look like the classic Westminster model, still retains the basic ethos and the ethics of that system.
I do not subscribe to the view that our public service has become politicised, if by that we mean that the institution has been subordinated to a partisan political agenda, as opposed to the fundamental requirement to serve the government of the day impartially.
That said, retaining an apolitical public service is not helped by the disturbing trend for incoming governments to sack some Secretaries. The more often this happens the easier it becomes. It is highly corrosive of the culture of impartial service which is essential to an effective public service. And what signal does it send to serving Secretaries, many still in their forties or early fifties, who look to a renewal of their contracts? We may never go back to it, but there was a reason why Secretaries used to be permanent heads.
Politics of course infuses government and it is absurd to pretend that senior public servants can ignore politics. But this is very different to saying that senior public servants must inevitably play politics.
A Secretary must be aware of the broader context in which his or her advice will be received. That context includes the political context. It is one of several variables which will shape decisions taken by ministers.
It is entirely legitimate for a Secretary to weigh up how political considerations may shape the thinking of a Minister because, at the end of the day, advice has to recommend a practical and workable way forward. But it is not the job of a Secretary to tailor advice to suit a political agenda. And it is unwise for a Secretary to second guess political calls. That is neither our job and nor are we much good at it. We should leave that to ministers.
My second point is that a division of responsibility should not crowd out the opportunity for partnership. Government is not a simple question of ministers making policy and public servants implementing policy and delivering services.
Good policy making is a partnership between ministers and the public service. A public servant should always be thinking about how to improve policy settings. Sure, the final decision on policy rests with the minister or with Cabinet. But departments should be diligent in serving up to ministers deep analysis of policy challenges and options for dealing with them.
In DFAT, we have sought to go further. I encourage colleagues to "falsify" policy. This is an idea shamelessly stolen from Karl Popper who famously argued that knowledge is advanced when we can falsify a prevailing paradigm. What this means for DFAT is that we should always be privately testing our policy assumptions: are our starting points correct; does the rhetoric stand up to reality; is the policy working; can it be improved?
The importance of deep policy thinking
Deep policy thinking is an area where our system, at both the political and the public service levels, has struggled over the last decade.
It is becoming harder for the political leadership to think deeply about new policy approaches. This means that governments come to power with headline policy positions, often without the backup of detailed policy analysis. Once in government they look to the public service to fill in the gaps.
The public service meanwhile has itself lost depth when it comes to policy thinking. And so we have had the two systems, political and bureaucratic, talking past each other and each nursing a quiet disappointment with the other.
I am not sure how we have ended up here. It may be that the relentless demands of the 24 hour news cycle and the technology of instant around the clock communication have fundamentally altered the attention span of our political and bureaucratic cultures.
Technology has changed more than the rhythms of our life. It has made us more connected but it has also truncated our thinking time. It puts a premium on an immediate response, on tasks and information, but not on reflection. Too often we are handcuffed to our i-phones, preoccupied with responding instantly to texts and constantly looking for the next message.
I fear that the combination of a relentless news cycle, social media that can often distort the centre of gravity of a policy issue, and the technology of instant connectedness, has weakened our capacity to reflect and to think deeply.
Not all will agree with this judgement. Some may argue that we are struggling more today because the magnitude of the policy challenges are greater than we have faced before. Or that we are merely in a period of transition and have yet to work out how to balance the tyranny of the current with the need for long term thinking.
In relation to the public service other factors have also been in play. Over the last decade we have seen a significant shift towards implementation and service delivery at the cost of policy work and also a narrower bandwidth when it comes to the time senior public servants have to wrestle with complex policy issues. In other words, the more reactive political environment has also rejigged the focus of the public service, because ultimately the focus of the public service reflects the focus of the government.
This, I should add, is not the voice of nostalgia. The appeal of the short term is not new to our political system. Nor do I suggest that there was a halcyon time when governments always thought long term and came to office with carefully thought out strategies. All governments struggle with competing pressures and none can long afford the luxury of policy purity.
Perhaps, we are also placing impossible demands on our current political leaders. Do we expect an Australian Prime Minister to fit the tongue-in-cheek demands that James Fallows once listed for the President of the United States:
"A president needs to be confident but not arrogant; open-minded but not a weather vane; resolute but still adaptable; historically minded but highly alert to the present; visionary but practical; personally disciplined but not a prig or martinet. He should be physically fit, disease resistant, and capable of being fully alert at a moment's notice when the phone rings at 3am—yet also able to sleep each night, despite unremitting tension and without chemical aids"
But, wherever we strike the level of reasonable expectations, it does seem to me that the process of long term thinking — and rallying public consent for hard decisions — has become much harder.
However we got here we must find a way out. We must rebuild, at both the political and the public service levels, a capacity for deep policy thinking because without it we will not be able to chart our way through the many economic and other challenges we face as a nation.
And nor can we delegate this work to think tanks, useful though their contribution can be. Good policy making is an iterative process. It involves testing assumptions and teasing out options. It is best done through a close partnership between ministers and their public servants.
I suspect regaining policy depth might prove to be easier to do in the public service than in politics. I say this because I think the public service leadership today recognises the challenge and that is the first step to recovery. I do not know that our political culture has reached the same point of acceptance.
Recovering the capacity for deep policy analysis is urgent because we are at an inflection point in our history. It is not dissimilar to the period after the second world war when the nation had to set out in a new direction and when the political and public service leaderships worked so well together to chart that direction. Or the period from the early eighties when we set out to internationalise the Australian economy; or the nineties when tax and industrial relations policies had to be redefined.
We should keep in mind Lord Salisbury's pithy observation:
"The axioms of the last age are the fallacies of the present, the principles which save one generation may be the ruin of the next."
Today we may be at such a point. We face an anaemic global economy. Enhancing productivity is proving difficult. We need to reposition Australia to take advantage of the services demand of the rising Asian middle class. We face an Indo Pacific strategic environment which is being rearranged as economic weight is redistributed. And the Asian growth story is itself perched at a transition point, dependent on politically hard structural reforms in the larger Asian economies to keep it going.
All of these trends have large implications for Australia and Australian public policy. They require deep analysis and a sure footed sense of what we need to do to adapt to a very different regional and global outlook. And that requires strong policy leadership from government and the public service.
This is a big challenge but we should not be daunted by it. The public service needs to shift gears and sharpen up but it does not need to reinvent itself.
The case for radical incrementalism
If I were to give one piece of advice to the next generation of public service leaders it would be to advocate the virtues of radical incrementalism.
In my experience the language of change is often too evangelical, replete with platitudes about change being a constant, with analogies of burning platforms and with dire warnings of Armageddon if we do not reinvent ourselves.
Yes, we in the public service have to embrace change, look for new ways of doing old things, be nimble enough to deal with an international environment which will always surprise, and a domestic budget which will inevitably place more pressures on us.
But we will get there not by radically reinventing ourselves but by working with the grain of our organisation: setting ambitious but achievable goals, articulating sound principles and understanding our strengths and weaknesses.
The only sustainable change is change that is understood and then accepted. Public service leaders who want to begin by overturning everything may be able to point to big early changes. But lasting change can only come when it is embedded in the culture of the organisation. And that takes persuasion and vision and the hard yards of incremental improvements in pursuit of a bigger agenda.
That is why I am a convert to radical incrementalism. It is radical in that it sets out a clear vision, clear principles, clear values. And it is incremental because it recognises that translating vision into reality requires a series of smaller steps. Great leaps forward usually end in tragedy.
History teaches us that messianic leaders have been the biggest cause of human suffering. Certainty can be a great strength but it can also blind us. If we want to change an organisation we have to be prepared to recognise failure; to acknowledge that some changes have not worked and should be abandoned. The public service should not be shy of trial and error.
That is why public service leaders need to encourage more risk taking. Not "crazy brave" risk taking but risks which have been carefully studied and then launched. And once launched, public service leaders need to stand by those who may fail. Ministers also need to back them because abandoning someone who took a reasonable risk is the surest way of ensuring a public service culture rooted in precedent and incapable of finding fresh approaches.
I have made the case for radical incrementalism in the public service. But I think the argument also applies to our broader politics.
Transformational reform is getting harder and harder. The politics of big bang changes has been cramped by the press of media scrutiny, the distorted prism of social media, and the amplification of complaint from those whose interests are adversely affected.
But if big bang reform through large steps is no longer possible, transformation through small steps is and in any event is probably a better fit with our current political culture.
Small steps only work as a strategy however if the ultimate objective is clear and genuinely transformational. This is the essence of radical incrementalism. And it is not to be confused with its evil twin, ad hoc incrementalism, which are small steps taken in the absence of a broader change agenda. The latter is taking up too much space in our political and bureaucratic cultures.
Values and leadership
Whichever way we approach change it needs to be with the compass of clearly articulated values.
Values matter. They are the basic principles that influence our thinking, our judgement and the way we behave. Values help us determine what is right or wrong, good or bad, professional or unprofessional.
They shape how we see ourselves and how we are perceived by others. That is why the APS code of conduct and values are so important to everything we do in the public service.
They need to be championed and defended.
Success in any organisation will be determined by the extent to which it enacts these values and that includes not turning a blind eye when they are ignored or breached.
There is nothing more corrosive to the values of an organisation than when colleagues observe that breaching them carries no cost or, worse still, does not exclude reward.
As an aside I should say that values haven't always been closely associated with foreign ministries.
Tallyrand, the master diplomat of 19th century France, had some fixed ideas about what values his foreign ministry officials needed.
In describing French foreign ministry officials to his successor he said:
"You will find them loyal, intelligent, accurate and punctual but, thanks to my training, not at all zealous… except for a few of the junior clerks who, I am afraid, close up their envelopes with a certain amount of precipitation, everyone here maintains the greatest calm. Hurry and bustle are unknown."
Tallyrand, let me emphasise, spoke of an earlier era of foreign ministries.
If values are the bedrock of an institution, leadership is what links values with function and purpose. And central to leadership is a capacity to set out a vision.
Now what George Bush Senior once called the "vision thing" is clearly important. But it is only part of the picture.
Nelson Mandela said this about vision:
"Vision without action is merely a dream. Action without vision is merely passing time. Vision with action can change the world."
There is a place for poetry in defining a vision. But in my experience the best visions are written in both poetry and prose.
Some valedictory advice
So let me conclude with some valedictory advice – unasked for and freely offered – to the next generation of public servants.
First, public service and public policy matter because they put the interest of the community and the nation first. Other professions invariably have a narrower focus. And no other profession is as capable of achieving lasting change for the better, or the greatest good for the greatest number.
Second, understand the value of institutions and their inherent fragility. The best way to defend institutions is to appreciate their foundational principles and to be true to them. And leaders of the public service have a particular duty to stand by their junior colleagues when they may be pressured to act contrary to those principles.
Third, governance is a partnership between political leaders and public servants. It should never be a partisan partnership. But it does require public servants to understand the political context within which all leadership must operate. And it requires politicians to know and respect the boundaries between politics and the public service.
Fourth, policy making is a serious business. It should draw on evidence but it should also flow from a deep and broad understanding of our country and its history. Silos may work in agriculture but they are corrosive to good government.
Australia has a history of strong cabinet government which is crucial to promoting the public good. A robust cabinet system matters because the public square is an eco system: everything is connected to everything else. A change in one area creates consequences in other areas. As I have noted in another context, the grammar of chaos theory finds a distinct echo in public policy, even if charting the chain of consequences is more art than science.
And finally and very importantly, public service can be a lot of fun. Teddy Roosevelt once said that life's greatest good fortune is to work hard at work worth doing.
By that measure, I count my time in public service as a most fortunate life.

Through an interdisciplinary curriculum, focusing on developmentally appropriate practices and world consciousness to build skills and concepts as well as continuously maintaining a close partnership with parents and community, the teachers will inspire, support, love and nurture each of ALL MY CHILDREN.


The New York Times lead editorial Monday was dedicated to Arizona Republican Senator John McCain, who passed away on Saturday: "A Scarred but Happy Warrior." But the liberal editorial page just couldn't stay classy for the entire 12 paragraph tribute, lapsing into accusations that McCain's obituary Robert McFadden mostly managed to avoid.
He had principles, and he had flaws, from time to time betraying those principles -- most grievously in the 2008 presidential campaign. But in a Senate mostly devoid of the kind of commanding figures who once roamed its halls, he was a rare bird. And he could surprise you.
....At a time of confusion and nastiness over immigration, it is worth recalling that he joined with Senator Edward Kennedy in 2005 and then again in 2007 to push a grand compromise that paired stronger controls at the border with a path to citizenship for the nation's 11 or so million undocumented immigrants.
The editorialists of course didn't explain that Palin was talking about Weather Underground bomber Bill Ayers, who certainly qualifies at least as an unrepentant ex-terrorist and who did know Obama in Chicago.

I hope you all had a fabulous Thanksgiving yesterday! I am here to share my first card for my 25 days of Christmas Cards. I will be sharing a new card each day and I hope you like them. This cute little snowman card was inspired by Day 1 video of Kristina Werner's Holiday Card Series that she did earlier this month. I used Real Red, Aqua Mist, White and pattern papers from Martha Stewart. The snowman is also from Martha Stewart. Since there was no fancy work or techniques on this card, it only took about 20 mins to finish, which was great! Have a good day, and I'll be back tomorrow!
Aw, this is so sweet! Great job on a really great card.


Do you cringe every time you walk past the windows in your home and see smudges everywhere? Do you dread the thought of having to clean them? Having clean windows improves the appearance of your home (and your sanity!), but can also extend the life of the windows and show early signs of issues. Read below for five reasons to hire a professional window cleaner.
Professionals are able to recognize existing issues. You may not even realize your windows have problems that could cost you in the future. Screens may not fit correctly and sills may have rot or other damage that only professionals with years of experience can identify.
Professionals can remove insects. Bees, hornets, wasps and ladybugs are all insects that like to build their nests between storm windows or behind shutters. Not just an annoyance, these nests could be a blockade for an escape route in the event of an emergency.
Professionals know and utilize the proper cleaning products. Not all glass is the same; the solvents you use to clean your windows could be causing damage without you even knowing it. Not only can an experienced window cleaning company remove smudges, it can also inform you of the products you should use when you clean them yourself.
Professional cleanings can extend the life of your windows. Professionals can treat windows that are damaged from old, untouched screens. Glass that has been damaged by aluminum screens is prone to cracking and chipping, not to mention is aesthetically unappealing.
Professionals can pinpoint what is causing spots or stains on the glass. Did you know that the mulch you have in your yard may contain a fungus that is damaging your windows? A professional service will be able to recognize this so you can replace your mulch and prevent the spots from continuing.
Consider Prime Time Window Cleaning to help you out with your windows this spring. We will not only leave you with sparkling, good-as-new windows, but can suggest ways to keep them clean and prevent damage moving forward.

United just sent JetBlue a shot across the bow with a new route to London on its ultra-premium jet
Summary List PlacementUnited Airlines is growing its transatlantic presence later this year with a newly-announced route between Boston and London, UK. Only one daily flight will serve the route with an overnight evening departure from Boston Logan International Airport at 10:00 p.m. arriving at London's Heathrow Airport the next morning at 9:35 a.m. The return…
Summary List PlacementUnited Airlines is growing its transatlantic presence later this year with a newly-announced route between Boston and London, UK.
Only one daily flight will serve the route with an overnight evening departure from Boston Logan International Airport at 10:00 p.m. arriving at London's Heathrow Airport the next morning at 9:35 a.m. The return flight then departs London at 5:00 p.m. for a 7:30 p.m. arrival in Boston.
"We are thrilled to offer travelers a convenient, non-stop option between Boston and London with this addition to our global network," Patrick Quayle, United's vice president of international network and alliances, said.
Operating the flight will be United's Boeing 767-300ER, a wide-body aircraft, with an ultra-premium three-class interior. Passengers will be able to choose from the airline's Polaris business class, Premium Plus premium economy class, and economy class.
The route is geared towards business travelers with 46 business class seats available in a cabin that takes up most of the plane. All seats in business class are fully lie-flat and feature United's Saks Fifth Avenue bedding to get the most sleep on the crossing.
The premium-configured Boeing 767 is the same aircraft that United planned to use for its relaunch of transcontinental flights between New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport and the West Coast cities of Los Angeles and San Francisco. That similarly premium service, however, has been pushed back twice already until at least March.
Flying the friendly skies?
A new Boston-London route is an odd addition for United, which rarely strays from its intercontinental hub-and-spoke route network with these kinds of point-to-point routes. All of the airline's mainland US-originating intercontinental flights in 2019, for example, departed only from United hubs in Newark; San Francisco; Chicago; Washington, DC; Los Angeles; Houston, Texas; and Denver, Cirium data shows.
United has been making shifts by offering additional flights to Florida and Latin America from non-hubs, but this is a first for an intercontinental route addition during the pandemic.
And while United's former slogan might be "come fly the friendly skies," the skies above the north Atlantic Ocean are about to get a lot more hostile for one airline. The new route comes just as competitor JetBlue Airways plans to launch its first-ever non-stop flights to Europe, from Boston and New York.
JetBlue was forced to delay the route launch due to the pandemic but still has plans to launch London flights in 2021, just two years after the announcement was made. The airline's goal is to disrupt fares on the route by introducing a low-cost, high frills option complete with a new Mint business class seat and service offering.
United's announcement also comes just days after JetBlue and American Airlines announced an expanded partnership that sees the world's largest airline pre-pandemic and New York's "hometown airline" partner on new routes, schedules, and frequent flyer programs, among others. JetBlue is not joining American's transatlantic partnership with European airlines.
And while United has answered the call to fly from Boston to London, was London actually calling?
Americans arriving in the UK are subject to mandatory quarantine, hindering travel between the two countries. Most Britons, similarly, cannot enter the US due to travel restrictions dating back to March 2021 when former President Donald Trump closed American borders to Europe and later Ireland and the UK to stem the spread of coronavirus.
United, for its part, has been pushing for a travel bubble between the US and London and has even trialed COVID-19 free flights between Newark and London through the use of pre-departure testing. But with restrictions not slated to lift anytime soon, it remains to be seen when this flight will actually launch.
"We will continue to monitor the demand recovery and travel restrictions as we finalize a start date for this service later in 2021," Quayle said. Join the conversation about this story » NOW WATCH: Why Pikes Peak is the most dangerous racetrack in America

En nitte er et mekanisk fastgøringsemne som består af en glat cylindrisk akse med hoved i begge ender. Det ene hoved er (normalt) fremstillet på fabrikken, det andet laves af smeden under arbejdet. Små nitter (op til 8 mm) kan nittes kolde, større nitter nittes i glødende tilstand. Ud over at gøre metallet lettere at bearbejde, vil nitten trække sig sammen under afkølingen og presse emnerne tættere sammen. Nitterne kunne opvarmes i små, transportable esser.

Først bores et hul gennem begge emner. Hullernes diameter skal nøje passe til de anvendte nitter (diameteren er lidt større end nittens diameter) og sidde lige ud for hinanden. Passer hullerne ikke overens, kan de tilpasses med en nittehulsrømmer, en art fræseværktøj.
Nitten isættes og emnerne presses tæt sammen med en nagletrækker. Derpå stukkes nitten med et kraftigt slag med en hammer. Herved udvides nitten lidt, og udfylder hullet. Derpå tildannes det andet hoved med omhyggelige slag. Til slut kan hovedet rundes med en knapmager. Ved større nittearbejder benyttes trykluftdrevne nittehamre. Det er nødvendigt med et modhold under arbejdet, f.eks. udført af en medhjælper på den anden side. Denne medhjælper kan også stå for at tage nitterne ud af ovnen og placere dem i hullerne.

Som nævnt trækker nitterne pladerne i et skib eller en kedel sammen, når de afkøles. For at sikre en helt tæt sammenføjning vil man stemme pladerne langs de overlappende kanter.

En blindnitte eller popnitte er rørformet med en krave på forsiden og har en metalpind i midten som anvendes til at presse nitten fast med ved et træk i pinden med en særlig tang. Røret udvides på bagsiden, og fastholder nitten. Samtidig rives stangen over ved et svækket sted med indsnit på stangen inde i røret. Blindnitter kan derfor anvendes på steder, hvor man ikke eller vanskeligt kan komme til fra begge sider og arbejdet er ganske enkelt. Styrken af hver enkelt nitte er ikke nær så stor som almindelige nitter af samme dimensioner.

Nitning giver en sammenføjning, der ikke uden videre kan adskilles. For at adskille samlingen, skal nitterne fjernes. Det kan gøres enten ved at bore dem ud, eller ved at hugge det ene hoved af med en mejsel, og drive resten af nitten ud med en dorn. Nitning var tidligere meget brugt ved alle former for store jern- og stålkonstruktioner som broer, tårne (f.eks. Eiffeltårnet) og jernskibe. I dag er nitter i høj grad erstattet med svejsning, men nitning anvendes stadig ved mange mindre opgaver.

For the past five years, during term time, I have found myself walking our dog around Orangefield Park, near to the Grammar school our boys go to. My oldest son – the one that's an actual giant – plays rugby and Saturday morning is more often than not match day. Just like it is throughout the western world no doubt.
I drop him off for pre-match training, give the dog a walk, then take my position pitch-side to shout a bit. It's great and although I don't have a long history of sportsfaning, 'The Rugby' has become a top-notch source of pleasure…and pain, of course. Such is the plight of the sportsfan.
Orangefield Park fills a gap between the school, a densely residential area, a key arterial road and a dodgy estate. Like many parks, it's a meeting place where people meet people they would never normally meet.
My favourite people are the old dudes. The grumpy, friendly, silent, chatty dog-treat packing, dog-walking, old dudes.
I've watched, from the bushes, the ebb and flow of the old dudes. Sometimes walking solo, sometimes in pairs…occasionally in packs. I do engage with them – usually as our dogs are drawn to each other's odours – not least because I know that one day, I will be one of them.
I've been taking sneaky snaps of them whenever a back or gaze is turned. If you're on IG, you can follow the hashtag above to keep tabs on the park's most worthy patrons.
Somewhere between The Amazing World of Gumball and Overwatch my youngest son (he's not so young any more) builds Gundam models. Back in my day it was the Spitfire and Chieftain Tank that we assembled from Airfix kits bought from that model shop up on New Street. For Seth, it's Mecha – equally complex, but shipped over from Japan.
If you lived in Japan, these amazing model kits wouldn't cost you too much – a few week's pocket money maybe, depending on which side of the Bullet Train tracks you were born on. We have to stump up for shipping but they are undeniably cool, so money (and time) well spent I say.
Seth's building quite a collection now and is really into the TV show they derive from.
The models take time to construct and (forgive me for sounding predictably parentist) in our age of fast gratification, that's a very pleasing thing to witness.
They're also awesome to photograph.
This is, probably, my favourite building on the Belfast skyline; ever since we moved here I've admired it. I may be in the minority but I know I'm not alone. In fact, I'm very grateful to James Greive, who wrote about his fascination for the Belfast City Hospital building a few years ago on Architecture Ireland — not least because his piece fills in some gaps (and, provided the architect's impression below. Hope that's OK James).
The hospital building was the brain-child of 'avant-garde' architect Louis Adair Roche while he worked at Munce and Kennedy who don't seem to be around anymore. Cork-born, Roche's family moved up to the northern territories of the British Empire during the 1940s with LA packing his suitcase and heading over the water to study making buildings and that at University College London…in London. It seems that the hospital was his finest work, although it is also considered by many to be a monstrous carbuncle. I flipping love it.
Surprisingly, to me at least, it was opened in 1986. I've always assumed it was from the seventies. But, speculating wildly, that date might be a clue to explaining how the flip LAR got away with dropping that spaceship into the south western corner of the city.
I've heard stories about other Belfast buildings built during 'The Troubles' (late 1960s to late 1990s): against the backdrop of paramilitary shenanigans, seriously dubious city planning decisions were made. Maybe there were a few backhanders here and there; maybe there was a little 'pressure' applied — a little 'persuasion', you might call it. Who knows; between you and me I get the distinct impression that the laws of the land, during those difficult times, were somewhat more flexible than in other regions of the United Kingdom.
Whatevz. I for one (and I think Mr Greives would agree) am glad that the Rochemeister was granted approval for his design.
This gives you an idea of the building in context although you get a much better sense of its prominence from the ground.
This is what The Irish Times had to say.
And here's a piece in The Irish News.
There I was, minding my own business, searching the outer reaches of the digital realm for post-1922/pre-now images of Dublin's O'Connell Bridge and where should I find myself? Only on John Hinde's really quite marvellous postcard archive, that's where.
Interpretive design is a great field of work for a graphic designer. By it's nature you're more than likely to be delving into the printed past for artefacts, references or relics. There's almost always some moment in the past (or for that matter, the present) that leads you to some interesting image, design or whatchamacallit.
I'm all over Dublin at the moment: either fighting the damned oppressive British or annoying the intolerant Irish; ousting uncooperative tennents or trembling at the might of those inconsiderate and really quite rude Vikings.
And, as I've mentioned before, it's hard not to get distracted by the other stuff you pass or trip over along the way.
Spring. And with it returns more opportunities to scratch around the shoreline for discarded bivalve mollusc casings; washed up from their brackish habitats for macroscopic scrutiny.
I think (think) that's me at the top. It's definitely my brother and my Gran. It could be a cousin but it makes sense that it's me. My brother again below, parking the van, just after my Dad jumped out, "Park the van son" (Dad couldn't drive).
I have a feeling that's my Gran and Grandad in the Herald coming off the ferry. Have no idea where they were going to or coming from. Partly because I wasn't born when these photos were taken and partly because even if I had been, I'd have been too young to remember.
I doubt you really want to hear any of this…But for the record, below you'll see my Mum, Dad and brother with Dad's Uncle Cyril and Aunty Vi – clearly before I was born again. Cyril and Vi were lovely; I have really warm, if somewhat distant, memories of visiting them in Sherborne St John, near Basingstoke (once I got being born out of the way). There was nothing in Sherborne St John except a Post Office. I think (once I'd got a bit of growing done) I was allowed to buy a Topic from there. The main thing I remember though is Great Aunty Vi; she had this amazing Hampshire accent.
I am very proud of the fact that I introduced her to the beef burger.
One of the really nice things I did when I was back at my Mum's, a couple of weeks ago, was to go through her slides. I was looking for photos of Dad – which I found – but I found some other great stuff too. No slide scanner to hand so I, rather crudely, used my digital compact and this Jumbo 22. The results are coming up next.

Home Featured Review Paladins #1
Paladins #1
IndieEngine June 19, 2019 Featured, Review,
Zillia 1:Awakened by Destiny
Story - James Kniseley
Art - House of Imagi
Lately there's been what I'd call a NEW surge in Anime/Manga love as opposed to a resurgence in the genre. I think the clear identity within mainstream visual storytelling mediums is what has really happened in all honesty. I'm hitting the crest of the age hill and I can remember growing up and reading/watching what are now classic and seminal Anime/Manga pieces. Paladins is a book that is very clearly inspired by many of these books and shows. Even the black and white interior draws from the very identifiable stylistic choices of the genres. While it does borrow, Paladins creates a new entry all its own.
As the first in a series (and a whopper too, 80 pages), Awakened by Destiny has plenty of work to do in order to get things going. We know nothing about anything and for me, the choice of housing our main characters in high school was smart. There's already built in understanding, placement, and even some attachment as the overwhelming majority of readers can already relate on one level at minimum. The book also does a very good job of building upon that by also showing us glimpses of the characters as children. This helps with engaging these characters as well as getting a sense of their interactions and feelings for one another. There is history between them already and it was a smart choice to allow that to help the readers out.
One of the driving factors in the book is a structural element of the writing. There are hints and nuggets dropped that pay off after you've continued to turn the page. Of course, the narrative itself does this as well. Who the heck are the actual Paladins? After our main duo have become two of the ten the search is on. Is it possible they already know one of the others? The evil the face comes from a world that is much like ours but is powerful to the point that the brothers will need the help of the others. The villains though, they feel like more than just your run of the mill baddies set up for our good guys to overcome. Especially in this style it is very refreshing to be given full on characters across the board. The Anime/Manga arena is rife with generic bad/evil cardboard cutouts that pose threats. There is substance to the villains here.
Opposed to the common dark themes of the works that have come before it, Paladins appears to be a much more light filled universe overall. The world itself has a an air of liveliness and all around hopeful nature but that doesn't distract from the mysterious nature of the evil that is facing the new Paladins. This book has done a good job of doing some of the hardest part of world building. It's both given and hinted at larger elements that will be forthcoming as this tale unfolds. There's got to be a hook (and we've got it in the form of both who the other Paladins are, and the full reveal of the evil they face) to continue to drive forward. We've got them and they work. Neither the action nor the character developing in this first entry overshadowed the other. There was enough of both to properly move things towards the ultimate journey but also make me want to go along for the ride. Add to that that we've got more to uncover about everything (the naming of the Paladins certainly has more to it, for example).
All in all this is an enjoyable entry into a new world and story for the genre. It differentiates itself enough to warrant further exploration as the next chapters come out.
