Captain John Postlethwait's Tavern
Captain John Postlethwait's Tavern was one of Captain Postlethwait's various business endeavors. In 1833, this site became host to the breakout of one of the most unforgiving and devastating events in Lexington history. After weeks of rainy and stormy weather, Postlethwait's Tavern became the source that scholars track as the beginnings of the cholera outbreak in Lexington. Captain Postlethwait had his own life seized by the disease as well as nearly 500 other Lexingtonians of the day.[1] In its day, Postlethwait's Tavern was a premier location for people of all different walks to gather and share the latest news and have a drink.[1]
Not many photos of the original tavern have survived. This photograph captures the newly built Phoenix Hotel after it was built following Postlethwait Tavern's fire.
This map indicates where Postlewait's Tavern was located in proximity to other roadways in Lexington. (Green marker)
The Phoenix Hotel burning down in 1879. This was the second fire at this location, with the first coming at the beginning of the century with the burning down of Postlethwait's Tavern.
An example of what a tavern looked like during this time period. The photograph is of the Talbott Tavern in Bardstown, Kentucky.
An image of the inside of the same tavern in Bardstown, Kentucky.
In early American pioneer life, alcohol was the undisputed drink of choice. After relations with the rum-supplying British were cut off after the Revolutionary War, the new country looked to Kentucky and Ohio for liquor production.[2] It was said that by the 1830's that people in the U.S. over the age of 15 were consuming more than seven gallons of alcohol a year.[3] For this reason we know that Postlethwait's Tavern must have been a gathering place in which a myriad of Lexitonians frequented. In fact, Postlethwait's personal daybook includes page after page of long bar tabs he kept for people who had to have been regulars.[4]
Captain John Postlethwait saw his humble beginnings as a tavern owner originate in 1797 after serving as a former Revolutionary War officer.[1] Along with his brother, Captain Postlethwait, "built a low rambling log house," which had very elegant taste.[2] His tavern served both common folk and also prominent citizens of his day. One of the brilliant features of Postlethwait's Tavern that made it so popular was the fact that pools for horse-racing were sold inside.[2] Postlethwait's legacy, however, did not just lie in this tavern. If this were so, it would have been tarnished in the fires that burnt it to the ground, twice, and then saw the ashes built over by what became the Phoenix Hotel.[1] Instead, Captain Postlethwait's legacy was more diversified as he was noted as a, "pioneer hotel keeper, horseman, and public citizen."[2]
In Kentucky at this point horse racing was just beginning to come to prominence. Postlethwait's Tavern became a key cog in the gambling industry of horse racing. According to a piece composed by the Kentucky Writers' Project, Postlethwait's Tavern became a popular destination amongst, "early Kentucky horsemen."[2] Postlethwait himself was one of the leading members of Kentucky's early racing industry. According to the same source, Postlethewait, along with statesman Henry Clay, were the leaders is establishing the "Kentucky Association for the Improvement of Breeds of Stock."[2] Furthermore, it was at Postlethwait's Tavern specifically that folks gathered, "and talked up the breeding of light horses."[1] It is apparent that Captain John Postlethwait and his tavern were more than just a business.
Located between Water and Main streets, Postlethwait's Tavern was at the center of the cholera epidemic in the Bluegrass.[5] With the Town Branch waterway located nearby, the water being used in the tavern was likely contaminated after all of the summer storms. This location's death toll, in particular, became well known, as one physician pointed out that, "the fatality along Main and Water Streets was appalling."[6] The coincidence that death tolls were so high near Postlethwait's Tavern is no coincidence at all. The fact of the matter was the being so near to Town Branch and that the tavern was a very popular downtown destination led many who frequented the establishment, and its neighboring businesses, to becoming ill with cholera.
The weather in Lexington was a large contributing factor to cholera's outbreak in the summer of 1833.[5] According to reports, the beginning of the month of June that year saw Lexington experience several days of constant thunderstorms.[6] One Lexington physician claimed that more rain fell in just one day and night, "than is usually allotted to a month."[6] In the 19th century, sewer systems were still not a part of most cities' infrastructures, therefore common outhouses were still in existence. So, this abundance of rain eventually caused local waterways, such as nearby Town Branch, to overflow and cause shallow privies to, "spill their contents onto the ground."[5] This combination of events did not bode well for the patrons of Postlethwait's Tavern as the disease seized a great number of influential Lexington figures.[2]
Captain John Postlethwait was one of many prominent people in Lexington who lost their lives at the outbreak of this disease.[7] The disease spared no one regardless of social status. Among the dead in Lexington were, "three physicians, a number of merchants and mechanics...and Mr. Postlethwait."[7] Until put into the right context, it is difficult to observe how widespread and fervent cholera became in Lexington that dreadful summer. The first confirmed case of the disease occurred on June 3rd of that year, and just 6 days later on June 9th, "some physicians think 1,500, were ill of the disease."[6] Postlethwait's Tavern will therefore go down in history as both a place that brought people together for enjoyable conversation and a place that a horrible disease had its roots in.

As I said, I tend to opt for full color business card printing. However, if you've checked into the prices of full color business card printing, you know it's not cheap. However, with the magic of the Internet, it finally can be.
For me, it's important to have full color business card printing because I'm a designer. I need my business cards to look as good as my products will. This means that I need to find cheap full color business card printing, or swallow high costs.
I tend to take my full color business card printing online. I can design my cards, and include my logo, for cheap. I can also get my cards much faster than I would the traditional way.
Regardless of your needs, think about taking your full color business card printing online. Online companies tend to have more styles and fewer tacked-on costs. This adds up to a great deal for you.


Most people can only dream of buying a ticket in flight for their holidays. Seems like, it is much easier for some birds.
A Saudi prince bought fares for not one but 80 of his falcons to fly them with him.
A Reddit user shared a photo that shows 80 falcons flying in the cabin of an airliner.
"My captain friend sent me this photo. Saudi prince bought ticket for his 80 hawks"
The blindfolded falcons were tied securely to the seats of the passenger plane. Hoods were used to keep these birds in calm state.
This might seem unusual to many of us but flying out with falcons in Middle East is not very uncommon. Falcon is the national bird of United Arab Emirates and 'Falconry' i.e. training falcons to hunt is a popular hobby in the country.
Birds also need documentation to fly in UAE. Falcons of UAE are issued special passports. This facilitates the government to combat smuggling. The validity of passport stands for three years and with it they can travel to – Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, Oman, Morocco, Pakistan and Syria.
Falcons usually fly in first class on commercial airlines. 'Lufthansa' even has custom designed "falcon tray" for this purpose.
A similar picture of falcons travelling in commercial flight was shared by another Reddit user four years ago.

Released Aug 5, 1990 by King (catalog no. KICA 1012~3, retail 3800 yen).
Disc 1 arranged by Ryo Yonemitsu. Disc 2 tracks 4-6 arranged and performed by Michio Fujisawa. Disc 2 tracks 8 & 9 arranged and performed by JDK Band.
The original Ys Perfect Collection spans two CDs; in terms of musical styles and formats, the two discs are very different.
Disc 1 is the one most of us Ys nuts are really after. All 14 songs from Ys 1 are rearranged, but most importantly, all of these versions capture that intangible Falcom "sound", a certain spirited combination of shimmering guitars, crisp percussion and synths, and the occasional horn and flute thrown in. I was a bit disappointed to find that a few of the tracks were just repeated from the Music From Ys 1 CD, with some acoustic touches added to the mix. But rehashes aside, all the songs on this disc are terrific reworkings of the originals.
Disc 2 is more of a mixed bag. It starts with a really cheesy vocal track (I'm just not a big fan of vocals in game music, so as far as I know this might be quite good if you like this sort of thing). Track 2 has a "smooth jazz" feel, and then -BAM- track 3 is a hard rock fest. Following this are some new age selections, three good JDK Band tunes, and another vocal (featuring a beautiful, feminine voice- much better than the first).
The two discs are so different, it's a shame they weren't packaged separately. For me, disc 1 *is* the perfect selection of Ys 1, while disc 2 is more a novelty, albeit a listenable and entertaining one.


When beginning a project you must consider whether the development will need to have planning permission or building regulations approval or your project may need both. These are two separate applications and must be applied for individually, you can apply for both using the Planning Portal's services below. You will need to create a separate account for each of the application services. You can register and sign in using the links below.
Please note: From 10 September 2018, there will be a service charge for submitting online planning applications that attract a planning fee. These online applications fees are to be paid to the Planning Portal by using the payment options that are presented to you as part of the application process and before the application is submitted to the local authority. Find out more.
Any person carrying out building work needs to ensure that work complies with the regulations. There are some types of work which will be exempt from the building regulations and an application will not be necessary.
The building regulations apply to most building work, therefore it is important to know when approval is needed, what type of approval you need and where you can get approval.

Worsley and Eccles South is a county constituency represented in the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. The seat is currently held by Barbara Keeley MP of the Labour Party. It elects one Member of Parliament (MP) by the first past the post system of election.

Constituency profile
The constituency covers the western half of the City of Salford, mostly safe Labour territory, but the seat also contains two of the Conservatives' strongest wards in the relatively affluent areas of Worsley and Boothstown & Ellenbrook; these are also the only two Remain-voting wards in the constituency. Worsley itself is a desirable area with attractions including historic manor houses along the Bridgewater Canal and the recently-opened 150-acre RHS Garden Bridgewater.

The largest town is actually the town of Walkden, mostly Labour-leaning, and it also includes the Little Hulton council estate. The "Eccles South" signifies the Barton and Winton suburbs of the town of Eccles. In the far south-west of the constituency along the ship canal are the villages of Irlam and Cadishead, separated from the other settlements by swathes of green belt land and farms in the form of Chat Moss, a protected peatland area.

In the 2019 general election, the BBC's exit poll forecast it as a Conservative gain, but it was not in fact among the many leave-supporting red wall seats to fall, and Labour held on although with a reduced, albeit comfortable, majority.

Boundaries

Following its 2006 review of parliamentary representation in Greater Manchester, the Boundary Commission for England recommended the creation of a modified Worsley constituency, incorporating a part of Eccles, to be called Worsley and Eccles South.

Following council boundary changes that took effect in 2021, the electoral wards included in the Worsley and Eccles South constituency are currently Barton & Winton, Boothstown and Ellenbrook, Cadishead & Lower Irlam, Higher Irlam & Peel Green Ward, Little Hulton, Walkden North, Walkden South, Worsley & Westwood Park.

The electoral wards originally making up the seat were named Barton, Boothstown and Ellenbrook, Cadishead, Irlam, Little Hulton, Walkden North, Walkden South, Winton, Worsley.

Addictions, Compulsive Behaviors, Alcohol and Drug
Inhalant abuse rising among teens
Sat Sep 4, 2004
By E.J. Mundell, HealthDay
SATURDAY, Sept. 4 (HealthDayNews) -- Kids don't need money and a friendly neighborhood pusher to get high these days: Experts say teens now are more likely to find their drug of choice right in the family home.
According to a recent federal government survey, more than 2.6 million U.S. children over the age of 12 admitted to having inhaled a solvent, aerosol or other household product for a cheap, powerful high at least once in the past. And that number is climbing, experts say.
"People fear heroin and cocaine, but when you look at the prevalence rates of these drugs in kids and teens, it's relatively low compared to inhalants. And the reason for that is availability," said David Shurtleff, director of the Division of Basic Neuroscience and Behavioral Research at the National Institute on Drug Abuse.
Especially worrying is the age at which children begin experimenting with inhaling household products, commonly called "huffing" or "sniffing."
"If you look at some of the data, first use on average is about 12 years of age," said Harvey Weiss, executive director of the National Inhalant Prevention Coalition. "We found that inhalants are used even before alcohol and tobacco."
And in a reversal of trends seen with other drugs, surveys suggest young girls experiment with inhalants earlier than boys.
Cheap and easily available, huffing can be tempting for bored or rebellious kids keen on getting high. Children and their parents may also tend to underestimate the health dangers of inhalant abuse, experts say.
Education is critical, according to Weiss. "The only way to prevent inhalant abuse is through education and awareness," he said.
"When we started in Texas in 1990, Texas had the highest inhalant abuse rate in the country. But then we started to get the message out -- starting in kindergarten, through teachers, parents, the faith community, scout groups. And what we saw was that inhalant use went down," Weiss said.
Unfortunately, the state government cut funding for most drug abuse education programs in 1995. "Within six or seven months, the next time a survey came around, inhalant use had skyrocketed," he said. "There has to be a consistent message out there."
That message has to remind teens that huffing kills: At least 100 deaths are attributed to inhalant abuse in the United States each year.
"Even a single exposure can cause asphyxiation, suffocation and choking," Shurtleff said. And because coroners usually don't test for inhalant abuse during an autopsy, the actual numbers of U.S. deaths linked to huffing could be much higher.
Inhaled solvents and other substances are extremely toxic to the nervous system, said Shurtleff, who has conducted extensive research on the subject.
"The drug that's been studied the most is toluene, which is found in paint thinners and has the highest abuse rate in children," he said. Prolonged sniffing of toluene causes targeted destruction of specific brain cells, especially those concerned with hearing. It also wreaks havoc on the myelin sheath that coats nerve fibers. As myelin erodes, motor control deteriorates over time.
"With prolonged use you can actually develop serious nerve damage, resulting in tremors of the hands, since it affects motor neurons," Shurtleff said. "It has a lot of devastating effects on the nervous system."
But there are more subtle signs.
Because most inhaled compounds are nervous system depressants (similar to alcohol), huffing episodes often mimic drunkenness, with users exhibiting poor coordination and slurred speech. Restlessness and trouble sleeping are other signs parents should look out for.
"It's critical to know these early warning signs," Shurtleff said.
Sadly, many parents don't intervene until it's too late.
"My sense is that many parents do know the dangers of inhalant abuse, but they think that their child, in particular, wouldn't be doing something like that," Weiss said.
"I hear it so frequently -- especially when I talk with parents whose children died from huffing," he said. "They say, 'My God, I've talked to my child about everything -- marijuana, alcohol, even cigarettes, other hard drugs. But I never thought my child would do something like that.'"
Weiss believes education is key, both for parents and for children at risk. "One of the core beliefs that I have is that if children are given appropriate information, they'll probably make appropriate choices for themselves," he said.
"If you surround them with appropriate information, kids will get the message," he added.

Just like with all other things in America, home siding options also spoil you for choice. You can choose from an incredible variety of options. But with so much out there for you to take a pick from, the question of which one would be the best for you becomes inevitable. As experts in installing home siding in Pasadena over the last many decades, we can give you an effective answer to that. Here are the top 7 factors that you must consider before choosing what to cover your exterior walls with.
Insulation – Providing insulation from the heat and cold is the primary function of exterior siding. How much a siding material insulates your home is a function of its R-value, or energy efficiency. A higher R-value indicates greater energy efficiency, which in turn means greater insulation. Getting a home siding with a high R-value would mean more comfortable indoors in extreme weathers and significant savings in electricity bills.
Water resistance – All sidings are water resistant to some extent, but some are much more so than the others. If you live in an area that gets a lot of precipitation annually, you should go for home siding material with exceptional water resisting qualities. This will ensure that your siding lasts long and does not undergo much decay due to moisture.
Aesthetics – Aesthetics are extremely important when it comes to home siding. It determines the appearance of your entire house. Therefore, weigh your options very carefully in terms of how the siding would look on your particular architectural style. You can judge the appearance of a siding based mainly on colors and textures. If you have a classical architecture, brick or stone sidings with their rich textures and earthy colors would be your best bet. For more contemporary homes, vinyl, with all its color choices, would work great. For a classy appearance, go for wood clapboard and cedar shingle siding.
Cost – Siding cost vary on a huge spectrum starting from $5,000 to even more than $50,000. It is easy to get carried away with fancy siding materials but the high costs may not always do justice to your home improvement budget range. Do your research well and you will be able to find something perfectly suited to your home within the budget you have decided.
Durability – Depending on whether you are looking for something cheap for short-term use or whether you want to make a one-time investment in your permanent home, there is a siding that fits right in with your requirements. Some siding materials are known for their durability; others, not so much. For example, vinyl lasts only a few years before it begins to crack; stucco, on the other hand, lasts decades and needs occasional painting jobs every six or seven years.
Environmental Sustainability – The environmental sustainability of a home siding is calculated on two parameters – one, how well it insulates your home and saves energy in the long term; second, what materials it is made of and whether they are biodegradable. If you care about the environment, let your care show through the home fittings you choose. Fiber cement is one of the best materials in this regard, as it is made of wood pulp fibers, clay, cement and sand – all natural and biodegradable materials.
Consider all or most of the factors above to choose for your home the ideal siding it deserves. With all the function and aesthetic appeal home sidings provide, a nicely done installation project can add an incredible amount of value to your house.

HOUMA -- Nearly three years ago this month, state coastal-restoration officials gathered in Cocodrie to discuss accomplishments in combating wetland and barrier-island erosion, only to have their meeting cut short by flooding.
Looking back, said state Sen. Reggie Dupre, D-Bourg, it�s pretty telling that members of the state House of Representatives� Special Committee on Coastal Restoration were chased out of their meeting space at the Louisiana Universities Marine Consortium when Tropical Storm Matthew flooded Cocodrie.
"I say we set (the Department of Natural Resources) up at LUMCON so these Baton Rouge guys aren�t worried about the traffic, they�re worried about the water," joked Windell Curole, general manager of the South Lafourche Levee District. "Flooding at your back door can be a very inspirational thing."
At the figurative end of the earth, the small fishing community that houses Louisiana�s major marine-research station faces immediate peril from coastal erosion that prompts flooding during hurricanes, tropical storms and even strong south winds.
"We�re fortunate that it�s a beautiful day today," said Nancy Rabalais, LUMCOM�s director. "But our parking lot has gone under water twice this last month just from high water in the Gulf."
State and local officials gathered at the center for two days to review and discuss coastal-restoration and flood-control efforts in south Louisiana. The events included a special congressional meeting held Thursday night and a tour this morning of six completed Coastal Wetlands Protection, Planning and Restoration Act, or CWPPRA, projects.
Also discussed was the Water Resources and Development Act, or WRDA, which contains authorization for over $3 billion in hurricane-protection and restoration projects for coastal Louisiana, including Terrebonne�s Morganza-to-the-Gulf.
WRDA, normally passed every two years, has been in limbo for seven. It currently awaits President Bush�s signature, though he has threatened to veto it. All those in attendance at Thursday�s meeting in Cocodrie said they are confident the bill will gain approval this year, either via presidential signature or a congressional override of his veto.
Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority Chief Sidney Coffee also spoke of the state government�s reorganization, a move designed to prioritize coastal restoration. The government formed Coffee�s agency, secured a portion of Louisiana�s oil-and-gas revenue for coastal work and put $200 million of the state�s budget surplus aside to pay for projects like a lock on the Houma Navigation Canal.
WRDA also includes $100 million for coastal-science programs at Louisiana universities and new state programs that will certify and educate levee districts on levee inspections, Coffee said.
"It�s a happy day that we�re making such tremendous strides," Coffee said.
But local officials also had a sense of urgency at Thursday�s meeting, as they complained of bloated expenses and slow-moving construction on projects they say are urgently needed to save the coast.
The familiar refrain is that everything changed after the 2005 hurricanes, said Kerry St. P�, the Barataria-Terrebonne National Estuary Program director.
"Most of us didn�t need to be reminded that the future of south Louisiana is dependent on our actions," St. P� said. "There�s just a new sense of urgency."
Curole aired his concerns to Army Corps of Engineers New Orleans District Col. Alvin Lee that "over-engineering" levees had made it impossible for many south Louisiana communities to afford new levees.
Jerome Zeringue, executive director of the Terrebonne Levee and Conservation District, agreed.
"No one wants to build a system that will fail, but we need to build a system that we can afford," he said.
Lee admitted that the increasing demand for the dirt to bolster levees increases cost and headaches for levee-district officials across the state, and said the corps is hoping to work with parish leaders to find a solution.
Zeringue also complained that levee officials in Terrebonne and Lafourche are being held to standards created in New Orleans that don�t mesh with what�s being built in Terrebonne and Lafourche.
"This is a completely different environment," said Zeringue. "We�re just asking for some fairness."
Lee said corps officials are open to finding different, cheaper alternatives for levee design and strength.
Local coastal-restoration advocates also lobbied for a start on major restoration projects that have had trouble gaining traction in recent years.
"While we�re pleased with the successes this year, we anticipate action into the next four years and beyond," said Lori LeBlanc, executive director of the local coastal-advocacy group Restore or Retreat.
LeBlanc voiced support for immediate action on projects like large-scale water diversions, which would bring in fresh water and sediment, rather than what she calls the "Band-Aid" projects done in the name of coastal restoration in the past.
St. P� suggested using pipelines to pipe in sediment, a process that can help create more land.
"We need to get beyond the planning," St. P� said. "Planning for restoration is important, but only because it can lead to quick and efficient restoration of our ecosystem."


Cutting off funds to Planned Parenthood, they say, is "state violence."
In a Twitter post made over the weekend, the always-subtle Planned Parenthood claimed that a proposed Trump Administration "gag rule" that would prohibit taxpayer funds from directly financing abortion services is "state violence," and that forcing taxpayers to foot the bill for abortion is just plain "economic justice."
Apparently, it's "economically just" to provide women the option of killing their child, because children are burdensome. Without abortion, women are rendered absolutely incapable of achieving, well, anything.
The manifesto is part of a new push form Planned Parenthood, connecting abortion rights to the "intersectional" panoply of leftist causes, including income inequality, and by extension, democratic socialism.
It's also a response to a proposed Trump Administration "gag rule" that would strip Planned Parenthood of Title X funding for reproductive services unless PPUSA physically and financially separated its family planning services from its abortion services — something PPUSA refers to as "state violence."
Title X provides funding specifically for "birth control" services — a definition that Planned Parenthood has long since expanded to include abortion. The "gag rule" currently under consideration wouldn't totally strip Planned Parenthood of its funding (it receives more than $500 million per year from the federal government alone), but it would force Planned Parenthood to be more careful about how it structures its clinics and medical services operation, and it would prevent any clinic that receives Title X funding from actively referring for abortion.

It promises you that you can make money by typing at home???Sounds too good to be true so I assume that it is.
From my experience if it sounds to good to be true, it is. I have had no luck with the data entry/ rebate processes and such. However, there are legit ways to make money online. It has taken me a lot of research to find these. I have been doing the online 'surveys' for a couple years now. You just have to be organized and cancel something if its a trial.
Other than the surveys I have only found one oppurtunity that worked for me. I actually understand the whole process now of how to make money online. Please feel free to check out the links I will include. Good luck and always do your research!!

One of the most useful and valuable features of the redesigned Google bar is the red notifications indicator. (You could even say it glows!) You know when you have tasty social content to consume, but the notifications themselves have been a little cryptic, often requiring you to navigate to the content itself to understand what happened. We now have easy-to-read "sneak previews" that immediately present what's new and why you might care. We've polished these notifications up and made a few other meaningful improvements too, including the ability to see the +1's and shares your posts have received since you last checked.
Finally, we're making a bevy of improvements to the Google+ Photos experience, just in time for the holiday photo-sharing season. Viewing a photo in Lightbox has been completely redesigned with improved navigation, enhanced comment legibility and better overall utility. This design makes the photo the hero, letting the content itself shine through. And we're introducing a completely new photo-tagging experience that's both fun and fluid, and lets you quickly focus on the people in your photos.
We hope that you enjoy these improvements and continue to provide us feedback. It's been an incredible year for us on the Google+ team. While this indeed has been a #seasonforshipping, Google+ users know that we believe that shipping is always in season! We've been busy making some resolutions for 2012, and we think you're going to love them.
We've made a new $ 94 million investment in a portfolio of four solar photovoltaic (PV) projects being built by Recurrent Energy near Sacramento, California. This brings our portfolio of clean energy investments to more than $ 915 million. We've already committed to providing funding this year to help more than 10,000 homeowners install solar PV panels on their rooftops. But this investment represents our first investment in the U.S. in larger scale solar PV power plants that generate energy for the grid—instead of on individual rooftops. These projects have a total capacity of 88 MW, equivalent to the electricity consumed by more than 13,000 homes.
We're investing alongside global investment firm KKR and Recurrent Energy, a leading solar developer. Google will provide a $ 94 million equity investment and SunTap Energy, a new venture formed today by KKR to invest in solar projects in the U.S., will provide the remaining equity.
We're joining KKR on their first renewable energy investment in the U.S. We believe investing in the renewable energy sector makes business sense and hope clean energy projects continue to attract new sources of capital to help the world move towards a more sustainable energy future.
The energy produced by these projects is already contracted for 20 years with the Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD). SMUD recently created a feed-in tariff program (FIT) to help green the grid for Sacramento-area residents. We're excited that these projects are the first to be built under the program.
We've had a busy year at Google. Since January, we've invested more than $ 880 million in clean energy projects. We believe the world needs a wide range of solutions—from wind, to transmission, to solar PV and concentrated solar—and we look forward to new opportunities next year to further expand our portfolio of clean energy investments.

The village of St. Märgen - a monastery foundation of 1118 - is situated on a plateau between Mount Kandel and Mount Feldberg. From here, monks started settlement of the Upper Black Forest. By so doing, they left a permanent cultural heritage.
The monastery church and church yard are still original symbols of the well-known place of pilgrimage in honour of the Virgin Mary. This place stands for silence, contemplation and meditation in a natural, unspoiled landscape with magnificent panoramic views.
We invite you to restful walking and hiking paths in a varied nature. St. Märgen, home of the original Black Forest clock, offers a clock museum, a local history museum, presentations of typical Black Forest tradition, music and sporting events - in summer and in winter. Everyone who knows and loves the horse race "Schwarzwälder Füchse" fully enjoys this village on top of Black Forest mountain ranges. The different horse events are a good opportunity to have a look at these horses and to always learn something new about them.
For the "little ones" we have an adventure playground and a special kids' programme.
St. Märgen is an ideal starting point for excursions on foot, by bike, car or bus. You have a vast range of facilities at your feet.
Be welcome - and feel at ease.

Hustle Harder, Hustle Smarter: 50 Cent Opens Up About Lloyd Banks & Tony Yayo's Lack Of Success
Source: BG017/Bauer-Griffin / Getty
50 Cent is opening up about why the other members of G-Unit aren't as successful as he is.
Back in the early '00s, the Hip-Hop group, comprised of 50, Tony Yayo, Lloyd Banks, and Young Buck, really made their mark on the industry. They were as strong as any crew, whether we're talking hits, lyricism, or cultural influence. As fans of the group know, Buck and 50 eventually fell out and in his latest book Hustle Harder, Hustle Smarter, 50 says it became clear that he wouldn't be doing business with Banks or Yayo in the long run either. Apparently, Banks and Yayo weren't great at adapting as the industry evolved.
"I always felt that if I had maybe done a better job teaching Banks and Yayo how to evolve and change their habits, they each would be in better places right now," he writes, according to Hip-Hop-N-More. "While I was out hustling (I actually hustled with his father), Banks was more content staying on his porch and watching the world from there.. Banks wanted things to come to him, as opposed to going out and getting them for himself. That's not me trying to assassinate his character—the guy has 'Lazy Lloyd' tattooed on his arm. He literally wears his laziness on his sleeve."
He gives some simple examples of some promotional ideas he ran by Banks:

Twitter Showers Kash Doll With Praise After She Bares It All During "BMF" Sex Scene
"To me, one answer was to change how he interacted with the culture. That's why years ago I told Banks to film a video of his life and post it on YouTube. Introduce people to his lifestyle. Let the camera follow him around for a while and see how he moves. Maybe something he says or does will create a spark, go viral, and then he'll have some heat around him again," 50 writes, adding "I'm not saying anything here I haven't said to Banks directly. Another time I sat down with him, just when IG was starting to pop off, and tried to drop this gem on him. 'You gotta get on Instagram,' I encouraged him. 'You can be a little awkward in person, so this is actually a better way for you to communicate with people. You just put pictures of what you think is cool on your page. That way you can.'"
But apparently, Banks didn't want to take the initiative. 50 reportedly says that he refused to get on social media, citing the fact that Pac and Biggie never had to, even though 50 explained that if the late legends were alive today, they'd probably be on social media too.
"When Banks made that comment to me, I realized he'd gone as far as he could go. In fact, my exact thought was 'This is someone I can't invest another minute or dollar in,' 50 wrote, adding "Age isn't about what year you were born—it's about how you approach the year you're in right now. If you're open to new experiences, willing to take chances, and curious about new topics, you're young. Period."
50 goes on to say that Yayo was still in to the idea of using their club appearance money to flip drugs, adding that anytime they had a problem with someone in the industry, Yayo's response would be "Let's just bang 'em." 50 would of course have to explain why that wouldn't work out for them in the long run.
According to Hip-Hop-N-More, 50 says toward the end of the chapter… "My intention was for G-Unit to be the first branches in a family tree that started with me and would go on to launch generations of rappers." 50 reportedly added that while he birthed his sons, "they didn't bear me any children. It all stopped with them."

The Missing Millions From Singapore?
By S. Ratnajeevan H. Hoole –
Prof. S. Ratnajeevan H. Hoole
C.V. Wigneswaran's Accusation – Leading Nowhere
The NP Chief Minister in declaring open a housing scheme by a chartable member of the public in Achchuvely about a month ago, made a startling claim. He said in public from the stage that:
A foundation in Singapore had donated Rs. 90 million for the furtherance of Tamil studies and so far the university has seen only Rs. 30,000 of it.
As proof of his source, he pointed to Aru Thirumurugan who has present, and is and has been a member of the University of Jaffna Council for at least three terms. This was reported to me by T. Thayalan, the Sunday Times and Uthayan Correspondent who was present.
Fear Psychosis
It is a testament to Jaffna's continuing fear psychosis despite the war's end that, not even after the CM's public revelation, has the matter led anywhere as it should in a healthy society. If we truly are a democracy with working institutions, it would have been raised at least at the University Council. People fear that if they point to wrongdoings, they will be made to suffer.
My Note to the UGC on the Singapore Bequest
My mind went back to the time I was the Vice Chancellor of the University of Jaffna. On 4 May 2006, when my relations who had made the bequest expressed concern to me over the use of the money, I promptly wrote to the UGC Chairman Prof. Gamini Samaranayake:
"One of my relatives in Singapore died in 1975 leaving much of his property to be given to University of Jaffna to be spent on Tamil studies, Tamil music studies and the library, after providing for his widow. The latter provision hindered an immediate transfer of funds and the funds were carefully managed by Trustees, one of whom is my cousin Vijendran Alfreds. Mr. Alfreds has informed me that the money was carefully managed and after making provisions for the widow, they dealt with Prof. S. Mohanadas carefully through lawyers, and in January of this year transferred S$1 million (close to SLRs. 67 million). As this huge bequest was not reported to the UGC up to the time I was on the UGC as required by the Universities Act, as Council Members are not aware of this huge gift and as there has been no public announcement of this unusual gift from an expatriate Jaffna man, I please ask that the UGC look into this and ensure that everything is in order. I make no accusations but ask as Vice Chancellor at a time when odd things are going on in the administration of the University only that the UGC ensure that there is transparency any time a gift like this is made and that an old man's last wishes are correctly implemented by the money going where it was intended."
After writing to the UGC Chairman, I assumed that the UGC will do the right thing, and put that matter out of my mind – until the CM's speech, and widely circulating stories that the Agriculture Faculty buildings in Kilinochchi built by the LTTE cost yet another Rs. 650 million to "rebuild" with locks costing more than doors.
Auditor General's Indictment
I am now very worried. Under the university regime of that period that is still continuing, the Auditor General strongly indicted the then Dean Medicine (who is presently the VC). His report is dated 08 June 2004 and titled "Unauthorized payment for the procurement of Computer Network Facilities to the Medical Faculty" (His Ref. NE/JF/A/JU/2004). It was given to me as a Member of the UGC. It says
The Dean … has deviated from the procurement procedure … and ordered equipment at a total cost of Rs. 3,000,000 whereas the procurement by a Dean is limited to Rs. 100,000. When the availability of grants was Rs. 963,000 order was placed for Rs. 3,000,000. No tender/quotation was called … to obtain the lowest and efficient bid. A sum of Rs. 722,550 … had been paid without any supporting documents. … The price quoted by Delven Computer had been reduced to half of the original prices after negotiation made subsequently. It shows that the price had been quoted arbitrarily. .. All equipment purchased was not installed. … The entire expenditure incurred could be considered irregular, unauthorized and fruitless."
Incredibly, the expense was retroactively authorized by the Finance Committee after the AG's indictment and the matter hushed up, an Assistant Bursar of that time informs me. Clearly more people were involved.
The UGC – Encouraging Lawlessness
I have since learnt of the UGC's irresponsible position on unlawful universities. The present Chairman in his affidavit dated 21 Oct. 2015 on a matter where two universities disobeyed orders by the UGC in the now concluded case USAB 873, incredibly says:
"Universities are separate legal entities and the UGC has not given the power [sic.] to compel Higher Educational Institutions to do things by the Universities Act No. 16 of 1978."
The powers for the UGC to compel unlawful universities are amply illustrated in the Universities Act. The parlous state of our universities and their pilfered finances is revealed not only by this UGC attitude but also by the lack of grammar in an affidavit.
Obviouly the UGC thinks it can do nothing but has gone to Jaffna to punish the culprits behind the student riots – thinking all the while that it has no power to do anything! Perhaps it is for the holiday they will enjoy at a 5-star hotel.
The opposition seemed clueless about the UGC's stand on its powers although MEP leader Dinesh Gunawardena said in Parliament that If the officials of Jaffna University had refrained from making an intervention to bring the Jaffna student riots situation under control, "the University Grants Commission should take disciplinary action against them." Good luck Mr. Gunawardena!
Public Giving – What we Must Do
Public giving is what all private western universities thrive on. As we try to revive our educational system and speak of privatization as a means to quality, people must feel encouraged that their giving will really help our universities and not go to line private pockets. The Sunday Leader (1Feb. 2015) has with documents blamed University of Colombo "for allowing former Higher Education Minister S.B. Dissanayake to acquire a valuable residence in Colombo 7 on forged documents which was a gift to the university by an eminent Gynaecologist." This was the residence of Dr. Siva Chinnathambi, at No.11, Hewa Avenue, Colombo 7.
Unless there is some guarantee that our bequests will not be embezzled, no one will give. No one should! There is a lot of noise about the frauds in government that have been going on. We who grumble that our new government is doing nothing, must do something ourselves. The Council of the university has first responsibility. It has failed us. The UGC is our next line of defence. It too has failed us. Now the Minister of Higher Education must act.
We members of the public must do our bit, pressuring the Minister and the government to honour the mandate that we the public gave them to clean up. And to honour the memory of the generous dead by ensuring that their hard earned savings are used as they intended.
Post Script: The Government Gazette of 15 July, 2016 gives the Auditor General's indictment of the university.
Section 2:2:4 refers to the non-rendition of "Detailed reports on donations received from foreign countries/embassies."

Q: What has been done with Multi monitor support in Delphi 10 Seattle? When I read the new features list in Delphi 10 Seattle, I see these:

*

*Improved multi-monitor support in the IDE, with the ability to place most forms and panes on different secondary monitors

*Enhanced IDE Project Options to easily enable High-DPI Awareness in your applications, plus Windows 8.1/10 multi-monitor support for VCL applications

Isn't the Windows 7 or above has multi monitor (or dual view) support?  What's more has Delphi IDE offer for multi monitor supports?

A: Item 1 seems clear enough to me. Some forms in the IDE can now be placed on different monitors. This is unrelated to the Windows version, and is a change to the IDE.
As for item 2, that concerns DPI awareness for your applications. There is a new project option that allows you to control the DPI awareness setting that is used in the IDE generated manifest. Previous versions of the IDE had no such setting and the IDE generated manifest did not include a DPI awareness setting.
Furthermore, the VCL now has per-monitor DPI awareness. That is, the VCL responds to WM_DPICHANGED by scaling forms to the new monitor's DPI scaling.
Per-monitor DPI scaling was introduced in Windows 8.1 to account for the vastly different DPI scaling needed for traditional sized monitors, very large so-called 4k monitors, high pixel density monitors and so on.
The new VCL functionality goes some way to addressing the issue but neglects one critical point. When scaling a form, different sized glyphs must be used for toolbar buttons, menus and so on. Nothing has been changed to account for this and you the developer will need to tackle the issue if you don't want your glyphs to look ridiculously tiny under high DPI scaling.
For more details on DPI aware applications:

*

*Writing DPI-Aware Desktop and Win32 Applications (MSDN).

*New per-DPI awareness in VCL applications (Embarcadero Community).

Providing good ductility has become research interest in the area of seismic resistant structures. Particularly in Reinforced Concrete (RC) structure, such ductility is commonly achieved by providing good confinement. Confinement can be conventionally provided by internal stirrups, and also additional external elements which are commonly used as strengthening or retrofit works. Attaching external steel collars on concrete columns is one of many techniques in enhancing the ductility. In this study, performance of such retrofitting method is investigated through laboratory experiment. Totally five specimens are built for this investigation. The first two specimens (CS1-1, and CS1-2) are control specimens, which are conventionally confined by stirrups. The other three specimens (S1-3, S1-4, and S1-5) are only confined externally with the steel angle collars. All five specimens are tested under combined axial and lateral load. The axial load is kept constant at 30% of plain concrete axial capacity to model the gravity load. The lateral load given is according to ACI 374.1-05 quasi-static cyclic loading protocol. Lateral load resistance is recorded throughout the cyclic loading, and plotted against the corresponding lateral displacement. Results show that specimens with smaller volumetric ratio of confining element suffered brittle failure (poor ductility). Specimens with adequate confinement show good deformability and ductile failure. In conclusion, the retrofitting method by providing external steel angle collars is very promising.

If AVP fails, Alien 5 and Predator 3 are gonna be ditched in favour of futhurment of the AVP series. This interview does contain a few spoilers. Read it Here.
Monday, 9th February 2004 10:10 Over at Lance Hendriksen News, they have just got back from Prague, and brought back with them, the first picture of Charles Bishop Weyland. "I have just got back from Prague where I was lucky enough to meet the cast and crew of Alien vs. Predator including Lance Henriksen! What an experience, these people made me feel so welcome. There's a real team spirit with this film and they're all having a lot of fun! Lance gave me a fantastic interview: we chatted over coffee and for a couple of hours Lance shared lots of stories about his movies and roles including AvP, Millennium and Frank Black ... and many many more. I'm busy writing up the transcripts of the interview and will soon post it on this site, with photos. Lance is the best, he is everything I expected and much more: funny, handsome, kind, magnanimous, down to earth, totally cool. He's a top guy.

Sunday, 8th February 2004 15:00 Well, I found these sketchs of the new AVP busts from Figures.com, and they look very interesting: The Images may take some time to load, so be patient.

Wednesday, 4th February 2004 11:55 A while ago I posted an article on AVPWorld claiming that Mcfarlenes may be featuring figures from the new Alien vs Predator film due out later this year. Well according to Figures.com, McFarlenes are going to be the company bringing us the figures as a seperate set to the Movie Maniacs. Heres a bit from the article: "High-end resin collectibles will be in the good hands of Palisades. Very much like McFarlane, Palisades is no stranger to the properity. Palisades' upcoming AVP pieces were shown at the UK Toy Fair in the form of concept art. Due to licensing restrictions via FOX, we are not permitted to show you these. I will say that an Alien and Predator with intricate interlocking bases are involved. As is an Alien Queen. " Sounds cool, Read the article.
Monday, 2nd February 2004 18:52 SuicideSquad has posted some news of his Alien vs. Predator set visit in Prague over at AvP Forums at GameGossip. Some choice schnippets imparted to SuicideSquad from the publicity department: *** POTENTIAL SPOILER ALERT *** - If AvP is successful Fox will forego Alien 5 and/ or Predator 3 in favour of AvP sequels. - No immediate plans for an AvP3 game (which seems to be at odds with reports from Fox Interactive). Another AvP game may come out to coincide with an film sequel. - The discrepancy between the spelling of Weylan and Weyland between Alien and the sequels seems to have always meant to be Weyland according to Paul Anderson, but was a production mistake in the first film. - Bishop in Alien3 is supposed to be an advanced model android with red blood. - AvP will be regarded as canon in the Alien and Predator universes. - There never was a Yutani character in this film. - The combatants? 3 Predators versus about 3000 Aliens. - At least 2 hours in length. - Budget of around $70 million. - Another teaser soon, with a trailer around April. - Aliens resemble most the Resurrection design but black rather than brown. - Lotsa chestbursters. Lotsa of Pred self destruction (how with only 3 Predators?) Queen involved. Predator mothership involved. - Lots of in-camera effects with CG enhancements. - No comment about PredAliens. Donning my editorial hat for a second, I find some of this info a bit dubious, but this is nothing to do with SuicideSquad and we thank him most profusely for sharing the details of his visit. A scholar and a gent, and no mistake!
Thursday, 29th January 2004 12:53 MovieHole, has posted an interview with Director Robert Rodriguez. In this article, Predator 3, or Predators as he calls it, is mentioned: "Oh, "Predators", yes we're the "Predator 3", it's call "Predators". It was back when I was doing "Desperado". I wrote "Desperado", it was going to get made like end of September, and then "Last Action Hero" bombed, so they said we're not making any movies for a year, like next year. So I was like what am I going to do until then? So I took a writing assignment, and one of the writing assignments that was out was "Predator" sequel. " Read the article here. After reading the previous article i looked into Pred 3 a bit more. According to IGN, there are currently 3 scripts. One called Predator 3: Deadlier of the Species, Predators and Predator 3. Predator 3: Deadlier of the Species is written by Sam Park, and feature Dutch stuck in LA during a blizzard and a Predator Huntings him. The second Predators, is set in the 17th Century, on a boat, and the crew have to fight the predator using week weapons. Maybe this is where the Pred from Predator 2 got his gun from? The last, Predator 3, being the old rumored script where Dutch and Harrigan would get taken by the predators back to there homeworld. Check It Out.
Sunday, 25th January 2004 05:25 The recent report from AICN claiming that the casting of Peter Weller as John Yutani was a fake. A rouse created by someone to prove that AICN post news without proper info and stuff!
Monday, 19th January 2004 11:27 Aint it Cool News has posted an article stating that John Yutani, last of the duo Weyland-Yutani, has been casted. The person playing the part will be Petter Weller, Robocop. Heres a small bit from the article: "Last month I was fortunate enough to exchange e-mails with one of the press invitees (For his sake, I will not name him outright) who took part in the Prague AVP set visits, and he dropped MAJOR hints that a certain "Detroit Cyborg" would be involved in the upcoming movie. To keep a long story short, after a lengthy discussion and a whole lot of begging, I finally managed to squeeze some interesting details out of him. While this would come as quite a major spoiler, this is hands down the best news I've heard yet coming from a motion picture with Paul Anderson's name attached to it. " I happen to agree with Super Furry Animal who mentions that he would have thought Yutani would have been a japannse company man. Read the article here.
