ANTI-CAPITALIST SECTARIANISM (Part – 1) →
WOOLWICH! ELITES IN DENIAL.
Being 'in denial' is a concept I first encountered in regard to a friends developing alcoholism. In that particular form it refers to a persons denial of their excessive and out of control drinking. They deny what is obvious to all. However, once encountered as more than a simple noun, this behavioural concept is immediately recognisable as applicable to other experiences and other areas of social and political life. Denying an unpleasant characteristic or unfolding situation is also the province of those who cannot (or wish not to) own up to being centrally or tangentially involved in any unpleasantness, particularly when this unpleasantness is extreme. The aftermath of the recent horrific events at Woolwich has illustrated this phenomenon and once again ramped up the level of denial.
There must be therefore at least fifty shades of denial currently leaving the mouths or pens of the economic, financial, political and military elites. Very few if any of the bourgeois elite spokespersons or commentators can utter what more and more people are starting to realise – that the capitalist mode of production and the system of patriarchy are fundamental problems facing humanity. For the purposes of this article I wish to draw attention to two obvious states of denial that have intersected over the recent brutal incident on the streets of the UK. The incident in question was the recent horrific killing of a soldier by radicalised followers of Islam. It has become clear that the events leading up to this atrocity are not simple but complex. However, almost immediately following it, the two forms of denial were projected into the public domain.
The first form arose from comments emanating from the neo-liberal political elite in the UK and the US. This 'official' political source was anxious to disconnect this barbaric act from the West's barbaric attacks upon innocent citizens of other countries (Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Yemen etc.) committed during the so-called war on terror. The second form of denial came from the UK elite within the religion of Islam who wished to disconnect this barbaric act from their religion. Both sources quickly dismissed out of hand crucial pieces of evidence. The unequivocal public utterances of the perpetrators of this heinous event made clear that a) it was retaliation against the West's actions in the east, and; b) was conducted in the name of Islam and Allah.
The 'war on terror' is actually – a 'war of terror'.
On being briefed about the horrific incident, David Cameron, the British Prime Minister on May 23 (2013) declared that the blame for it:
"..lies purely with the sickening individuals who carried out the attack."
"This afternoons attack in Woolwich is a sickening, deluded and unforgivable act of violence. (Boris Johnson.)
These two extracts are enough to encapsulate a substantial part of the entire UK political elites (Left, Right and Centre) responses to these events. The key word in the first quote is 'purely'. Of course the individuals are to blame for the attack, but the insertion of purely, clearly signals the political elites denial strategy. So does the lack of any reference to the possible motives for such an ' unforgivable act of violence' – in the mayor of London's comment which follows it. What other unforgivable acts of UK and US violence does he and his leader avoid mentioning?
The so-called war on terror could be more accurately designated as a 'war of terror' since the numbers and volume of personnel and armaments used against the targets and the communities they live among are astronomical in comparison. They far exceed the resources and casualties wielded against, and inflicted upon, those of us in the west. Massive shock and awe, is the Western elites default position when it goes after those who dare to oppose it, and shock and awe is what these defenceless communities regularly get.
The justified horror we feel when innocent citizens are killed and maimed on our streets in the UK and the US has been felt nearly everyday over the last decade in Iraq, Afghanistan and more recently in Libya, Yemen and Pakistan. In fact, sometimes the innocent citizens of these countries feel justified horror more than once per day. For this reason only the most bigoted or unthinking people can fail to recognise that such a war of targeted extermination would not create feelings of anger, resentment and eventual retaliation. Particularly when the West's violence includes a circle of 'collateral damage' and a second, minutes-later strike, to eliminate those who rush to help. How sickening is that?.
Indeed, the UK governments security chiefs have more than once, recognised this very fact of revenge in copious documents readily available to the government. So Cameron, Johnson. Clegg, Miliband. Obama and the rest of the elite know this is the case. Indeed, after the terrible slaying of the soldier Lee Rigby, the perpetrators stayed at the scene of the crime and announced their motives. They stood around and spoke to passers by and asked their words to be filmed and recorded. Here a couple of crucial sentences.
"..because David Cameron (the) British Government sent troops to an Arabic country……I apologise that women had to witness this today but in our lands our women have to see the same. Remove your governments – they don't care about you." (Michael Adebolwale and Michael Adebolajo. 22 May 2013.)
So the link between the West's atrocities in the Middle East, North Africa etc., and the killing was unmistakably in the minds of the perpetrators of this brutal act. Now let us consider whether there is any connection between Islam and the Woolwich killing.
Islam, killing and holy war.
There have been many claims from politicians and Islamic representatives during the past weeks, that violence and killing has nothing to do with the religion of Islam. Here are just two examples.
"There is nothing in Islam that justifies this truly dreadful act." (David Cameron.)
"…The actions of the perpetrators are totally against the religion of Islam and the example of the prophet Muhammad." (Sheikh Abdul Qayum. 24 May 2013.)
Elsewhere, ('Religion – is – Politics') I have demonstrated that all the three Abrahamic religions commenced as forms of political governance and have retained the textual instructions and thus the original ideologically based political ambitions in their scriptures. Islam is not alone in having violent textual directives at the very core of its ideology. Nor is it the only religion advocating killing members of other religions. It is a verifiable fact, that the sacred texts of Christianity and Judaism are littered with examples of killing in the name of God and numerous threats of barbaric punishments. However, since the Woolwich events it is Islam that is currently under the microscope again, so here are a few extracts from the Qur'an.
"The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His apostle and strive to make mischief in the land is only this, that they should be murdered or crucified of their hands and their feet should be cut off on the opposite sides….." (Surah 5 v 33.)
If a devout believer considers that there are those who 'wage war' against Islam and are making mischief in the land' then a choice of punishments are allowed by the Qur'an. This and many other such directives are the scriptural basis for the Islamist clerical pronouncements concerning the permissiveness of atrocities against those they perceive as making war against them. It is also the Islamic textual basis of those who carry out these acts, whether against British and American soldiers or young school children such as Malala Yousafzai. Within the Qur'an, there are over a dozen such direct courses of action on killing, almost 100 on various forms of hurting, harming and fighting and over 200 advocating retribution. Another example;
"Permission (to fight) is given to those upon whom war is made because they are oppressed, and most surely Allah is well able to assist them." (Surah 22 v 39.)
We can see from this that the right to resist war and oppression, which is now embedded in International secular Law, is also found in the Qur'an in the form of a justification for 'holy-war'. This again is undoubtedly a Surah which will be imprinted upon a resolute believers consciousness. Note that it doesn't specify what kind of fighting is allowed in such 'war' and so it is up to the believing reader and/or cleric to fill in this blank space. This next example introduces a 'just cause' permission to kill and this is granted to any surviving heirs of someone killed unjustly.
"And do not kill any one whom Allah has forbidden, except for a just cause, and whoever is killed unjustly. We have indeed given to his heir authority, so let him not exceed the just limits in slaying; surely he is aided." ( Surah 17. v 33.)
So when we witness members of the Islamic religious community saying or writing that Islam does not condone murder of revenge killing, they are in a state of denial about the basis of their religion – if not about themselves. What they should say and what many undoubtedly mean – is that they are against murder and revenge killing! If they openly said this it should be genuinely applauded. However, this of course should cause them to question the foundations of their religion. Like it or not, a religion based solidly upon the complete sacredness of the Qur'an, does advocate, allow and justify murder along with revenge killing. So when one of the perpetrators of this attack declared;
"We swear by the almighty Allah we will never stop fighting you."
He was merely expressing what both perpetrators knew from their studies of the Qur'an. Studies, no less, which were gained by attendance at circles organised by one Imam or another. In other words they and Imams who support them were merely echoing the spirit and letter of numerous sections of the Qur'an. To deny the connections in both cases is deny the obvious – it is to be in denial!
Defend Muslims but not Islam.
Many on the left have failed to distinguish between defending a human being and defending an ideology. Revolutionary-humanist anti-capitalists cannot condone this failure to rise above bourgeois 'identity' politics. It may sound an irreconcilable contradiction to argue for defending Muslim working men and women, yet rigorously and vigorously criticising their religion of Islam, but it is not. The contradiction is reconciled by recognising that human beings are not identical with any ideology they may have been indoctrinated with. It is also clearly possible to recognise that ideologies (religious or not) are forms of mental and frequently physical forms of enslavement.
As human beings those workers and poor currently attached to the religion of Islam are oppressed, exploited and marginalised by the capitalist mode of production. But they are also oppressed and exploited and marginalised by a religion and a religious elite, which demand submission to religious authority and denies many human rights to its members. At its roots and in much of its practice, Islam is a fiercely patriarchal religion which dominates and exploits at all levels the womenfolk, the children and the ordinary members attached to it.
Such religious domination and oppression may be administered lightly in some cases and violently in others – but oppression and exploitation is always at its core – as it is in all religions. So too is its flagrant hostility to other religions and those of no faith. This aggressive hostility and control may have diminished for a time, and even for considerable periods as with the Umayyad Caliphate in southern Spain etc. But muted or open, hostility and competition for the patriarchal governance of communities remains an essential part of Judaism's, Christianity and Islam's ideological foundations.
For this reason, we should defend Muslim communities against the attacks of state and the neo-fascists of all persuasions but make it clear (to them and others) we are defending them as oppressed and exploited members of the human family and are definitely not defending Islam or any other such archaic ideology. For it is an ideology which seeks to keep women as second-class citizens, promotes child marriages, violently discriminates against gays and lesbians, issues death Fatwa's against those who criticise and promotes governance by 'belief' in an invisible, unknowable, therefore for all intents and purposes a non-existent male.
Finally. It is has become clear that many Muslims, particularly young Muslim's have celebrated acts such as this and other such revenge attacks upon the UK and the US over the last decade. However, they should understand this is not the way to end their oppression or the capitalist mode of production which is economically, financially, politically and militarily at the root of their and other peoples oppression. Indeed, such despicable and inhuman acts only weaken organised opposition against the capitalist mode of production and allows the pro-capitalist political and military elite to brandish their weapons of death even more vigorously. There is a need for oppressed and exploited everywhere to elevate their human identity over any religious, national, cultural, gender, age forms of identity and unite to work toward a post-capitalist future where all human beings have sufficient necessaries to live a contented and fulfilled life.

Manuel Antonio Flórez Maldonado Martín de Angulo y Bodoquín (* 27. Mai 1723 in Sevilla, Region Andalusien, Spanien; † 20. März 1799 in Madrid, Spanien) war ein spanischer Offizier und Kolonialverwalter, der als Vizekönig von Neugranada und Neuspanien amtierte.

Leben

Karriere in der spanischen Marine
Flórez trat 1736 in den Militärdienst ein und wurde an der Marineakademie (Colegio Naval) von Cádiz ausgebildet. 1744 begann er den aktiven Dienst auf See, zunächst im Mittelmeer, später auch in Südamerika. 1753 begleitete er Gaspar de Munive, der den Auftrag hatte, im heutigen Paraguay die im Vertrag von Madrid 1750 festgelegte Grenze zwischen den Kolonialreichen Spaniens und Portugals zu detaillieren und umzusetzen. Er schrieb darüber einen Bericht (Diario de la demarcación) und eine Länderkunde der bereisten Gegend (Descripción de la provincia de Paraguay), die aber beide bis heute nicht mehr überliefert sind.

1771 wurde er zum militärischen Oberbefehlshaber von Ferrol ernannt, einer wichtigen Marine- und Werftenbasis der Spanier. Im selben Jahr wurde er in den militärischen Orden von Calatrava aufgenommen. 1772 erfolgte sein Aufstieg zum Generalleutnant der Marine.

Amtszeit als Vizekönig von Neugranada
Im Jahre 1775 ernannte ihn König Karl III. zum Vizekönig von Neugranada. Er erreichte Cartagena am 10. Februar 1776 und machte sich auf den Weg nach Bogotá, allerdings nicht über den traditionellen Weg auf dem Río Magdalena bis Honda (Kolumbien), sondern auf dem Landweg über Opón und Vélez, um zu überprüfen, ob diese Route sich als Straße ausbauen ließe. Im Mai 1776 nahm er die Amtsgeschäfte in Bogotá auf.

Er übernahm von seinem Vorgänger den Aufbau der ersten öffentlichen Bibliothek, und er brachte die erste öffentliche Druckerpresse nach Kolumbien. Seine Amtszeit war – wie die seiner Vorgänger – von mehreren Aufständen durch Siedler und Einheimische geprägt, die er niederschlagen ließ.

Vizekönig Flórez bemühte sich, die Infrastruktur, besonders das Wegenetz, der Kolonie auszubauen, und er befahl die zweite Volkszählung 1778, die einen Einwohnerstand von etwa 830.000 Bewohnern ergab. Im selben Jahr erleichterte das Mutterland den Handel zwischen Spanien und den Kolonien sowie untereinander.

1777 entsandte der spanische Finanzminister José de Gálvez y Gallardo den Revisor Francisco Gutiérrez de Piñeres nach Neugranada, um Finanzreformen durchzusetzen, die im Wesentlichen auf Erhöhungen und konsequentem Eintreiben der Steuern auf Tabak, Branntwein und Spielkarten bestand. Diese Abgaben führten zu weiteren Aufständen der Landbevölkerung.

1779 trat Spanien auf Seiten der Amerikaner in den Amerikanischen Unabhängigkeitskrieg gegen die Briten ein. Flórez verließ Bogotá und reiste nach Cartagena, um möglichen Angriffen der Engländer entgegenzutreten.

1782 bat Flórez um seine Ablösung, übergab das Amt an Juan de Torrezar und fuhr über Kuba zurück nach Europa.

Amtszeit als Vizekönig von Neuspanien
1787 betraute ihn der König erneut mit dem Amt eines Vizekönigs in Amerika, diesmal in Mexiko. Flórez schiffte sich im Mai 1787 in Cádiz ein und zog feierlich am 17. August in Mexiko-Stadt ein.

In Mexiko kam es zu Kompetenzstreitigkeiten bei Finanzen und Militär zwischen dem Vizekönig und den örtlichen Intendenten, die unter dem Superintendenten Fernando Mangino agierten. Erst als der Indienrat Mangino absetzte, war die Situation klar.

Flores hatte auch zwischen den zuständigen Ministerien zu vermitteln und regelte die Provinzbegrenzungen. Flórez stellte neue Milizeinheiten auf und ließ einige Verbesserungen an den Verteidigungsanlagen vornehmen. Er entsandte 1788 eine Marineexpedition unter Leitung von Esteban José Martínez in den Nordwestpazifik, um zu erkunden, inwieweit russische Expansionsbestrebungen von Sibirien aus die spanischen Interessen gefährden könnten. Als Hernández Ende 1788 mit der Nachricht zurückkam, die Russen planten eine Siedlung in der Nootka Sound, ließ er dort im Sommer 1789 seinerseits eine spanische Befestigung errichten.

Manuel Flórez förderte die Wissenschaft; in seiner Amtszeit wurde eine Hochschule in Guadalajara errichtet und der Botanische Garten in Mexiko-Stadt gebaut; zudem ließ er ein erstes Geschichtswerk über Mexiko veröffentlichen. Aus Europa hatte er deutsche Bergbauspezialisten mitgebracht, die moderne Abbautechniken in die Kolonie bringen sollten.

Aus gesundheitlichen Gründen hatte Flórez in Spanien bereits um seine Ablösung gebeten. Als im Dezember 1788 König Karl III. starb, wurde sie umgehend angenommen. Die Nachricht erreichte Mexiko-Stadt im Februar 1789. Als Gnadenerweis verzichtete die Krone auf die sonst übliche Revision der Amtsführung (Juicio de Residencia) und gewährte Manuel Flórez zudem sechs Monate Gehaltszahlung, um eine standesgemäße Rückkehr zu ermöglichen. Seine Heimfahrt nach Europa verzögerte sich freilich, bis sein Nachfolger Juan Vicente de Güemes im Juli 1789 in Veracruz ankam.

König Karl IV. ernannte ihn in Spanien zum Generalkapitän der königlich spanischen Marine und verlieh ihm 1799 den Titel eines Grafen des Hauses Flórez (spanisch: conde de Casa Flórez); diesen Titel konnte er nicht mehr annehmen, da er zuvor verstarb. Er ging auf seinen Sohn über.

Q: PassportJS req.user undefined when authentification from an android app I'm developing an API in nodeJS, for the authentification part I'm using PassportJS.
I'm using this good tutorial: http://scotch.io/tutorials/javascript/easy-node-authentication-setup-and-local
In a browser, it's ok I get the user but when I try with the android app, req.user is undefined.
app.post('/login', passport.authenticate('local-login', {
    successRedirect: '/loginSuccess',
    failureRedirect: '/loginFailure',
    failureFlash : true // allow flash messages
}));

app.get('/loginFailure', function(req, res, next) {
    res.setHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json');
    res.json({user: req.user, message: req.flash('loginMessage')[0]});
});

app.get('/loginSuccess', function(req, res, next) {
    console.log(req.user);
    res.setHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json');
    res.json({user: req.user, message: "test"});
});

//
passport.use('local-login', new LocalStrategy({
    usernameField : 'login',
    passwordField : 'password',
    passReqToCallback : true // allows us to pass in the req from our route (lets us check if a user is logged in or not)
},
function(req, login, password, done) {
    // asynchronous
    process.nextTick(function() {
        User.findOne({$or:[{'local.email': login.toLowerCase()}, {'local.login': login}]}, function(err, user) {
            // if there are any errors, return the error
            if (err)
                return done(err);

            // if no user is found, return the message
            if (!user)
                return done(null, false, req.flash('loginMessage', 'No user found.'));

            if (!user.validPassword(password))
                return done(null, false, req.flash('loginMessage', 'Oops! Wrong password.'));

            // all is well, return user
            else
                return done(null, user);
        });
    });

}));

And my android code:
public class LoginActivity extends Activity {

      private Button loginButton = null;
      private Button cancelButton = null;

      private boolean isOnline() {
            ConnectivityManager cm =

            NetworkInfo netInfo = cm.getActiveNetworkInfo();
            if (netInfo != null && netInfo.isConnectedOrConnecting()) {
                return true;
            }
            return false;
        }

      private OnClickListener clickListenerLoginButton = new OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                if (!isOnline()) {
                    Toast.makeText(LoginActivity.this, getResources().getString(R.string.ERROR_NO_NETWORK), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
                    return ;
                }
                new LoginOperation().execute(getResources().getString(R.string.urlLogin));
            }
        };

        private OnClickListener clickListenerCancelButton = new OnClickListener() {

                }

             }
        }

      }
}

And for try with a browser:
user1/password1
http://exemple.com:4040/login
I'm using express4.0 but I also tried with express3.8.
I'm totally lost, I don't understand at all why it does work with a browser but not with an app.
Edit: I think the problem come from the way I call the API in android, the http header request should be different with a browser so it's not working good.
Thanks for your help.

A: you expressjs server is returning "302 Moved Temporarily"

Android URLConnection by default automatically follows the redirect, and is fetching you the data returned by /loginSuccess
The problem is, your expressjs server requires you send back the cookie it set;
So the solution is to

*

*disable the automatic redirect; Add the below line after initial url.openConnection()
((HttpURLConnection)conn).setInstanceFollowRedirects(false);

*manually follow the url redirect, with the cookie value set in GET request. Add the below code snippet after wr.flush(); line
String cookie = conn.getHeaderField("Set-Cookie");
conn = new URL("http://example.com:4040/loginSuccess").openConnection();
conn.setRequestProperty("Cookie", cookie);
conn.connect();

*consider replacing hardcoded url above with "baseUrl + conn.getHeaderField("Location")"

6 rolls. (grab a book). 2 different cameras with each roll posted in reverse order. I know you as the viewer don't care but it drives me nuts that blogger was more user friendly in 2009 than it is in 2016. No Don.
I choose to believe the story that Al Capone built it.
I'll drive anywhere to skate.
"I wonder if anyone shot this angle before?"
Old Rock in landscape. We all had code names.


Eldest was in his 3rd grade class play about bullying. They performed their play for the parents and for most of the school (grades 2-4).
Saturday night, after a day filled with all-star baseball, Hubby received an e-mail that notified him that Eldest had been directly involved in an incident.
The glove, as it lay drying, was subsequently stolen.
I knew all this had happened because I was working in the snack shack at the time. I saw the wet, ruined glove. I saw someone trying to figure out how to get the glove to dry.
I had no idea that my child was involved.
Eldest's buddy told him to throw the glove in the mud.
Anyway, long story short, my son made the wrong choice.
A little piece of my heart broke on Saturday night.
It broke to think of the glove's owner, whose glove was ruined. And then stolen. To think of how he felt.
It broke to think of the glove's owner's mother, whom I know.
It broke to think that my child would do something so rotten. To do something that he knows is rotten.
It broke to see him crying in bed. Sobbing himself to sleep. Realizing that he had been so so wrong.
And look, I know. Eldest is young. 9 year olds make mistakes. Silly mistakes. That these things will happen. That he will be put in many many many more situations similar and much worse than this.
Crack, crack goes my heart.
Yesterday, Eldest got on the phone and apologized to both the boy and his mother.
Hubby made arrangements with the mother that he and Eldest (and Eldest's buddy who was the one who told Eldest to throw the glove in the mud and HIS father) are all picking up the boy and taking him to a sporting goods store, where the boy will pick out a new glove. And then Eldest and his friend will split the cost of the glove, earning money by doing chores allllllllllll summer long.
For all the times I've preached to you that "it gets easier" and "hang in there" - I never had the foresight to see this coming.
As they develop and are out of diapers and cribs and can buckle themselves in the car and can sleep straight through the night, yes, that part is easier.
And as they become more self-sufficient and are in school full-time and are not babies anymore, yes, that part is easier too.
But man, this learning lessons and teaching consequences and doing the right thing and realizing that you are shaping the choices your children make and the people they become....WOAH.
Yeah, parenting is hard. SO HARD! My son is all kinds of acting out right now, as he fights a really tough battle with his ADHD and the impulses it delivers. I know within him beats a sweet, loving heart, and I just have to be up for all the work it takes to keep redirecting him toward it. It will be worth it, it will be worth it, it will be worth it. All the tears and heartache have to lead us somewhere good, together, no?
I can't imagine how hard it is to start dealing with this stuff. Regarding your "if your friends told you to jump off a bridge" statement - did you hear about that kid who jumped off the Golden Gate after his friends dared him? He survived. But all I could imagine was how SICK his parents felt that he actually jumped at the urging of his friends. Crazy.
My oldest is 9 and we went through a similar situation this year. My sweet, kind boy made a wrong choice. It was so hard to deal with but I hope that in the end he learned his lesson. Thanks for sharing - I got a bit teary recalling how awful it feels for everyone - even the parents.
Forgive him, forgive yourself and move on. Bigger problems will be coming and this will be a valuable reference point for later discussions. Remember good kids make bad decisions. This comment from your friend the school counselor.
Yes it was a horrible, rotten thing, but also? What a valuable lesson to learn at such a young age. Because as they get older the stakes only get higher. And now he knows. That isn't a bad thing.
As the mother of two boys, 21 and 13, I can say that "forgive him, forgive yourself and move on" is great advice. My boys have good hearts, are good students and make me very proud everyday but they also make mistakes. I learned a long time ago to never say "my child would never....". If his heart broke, it means you're doing something right because he cares!
:( this just makes me heart break for you and eldest. I'm so impressed with the way they are "fixing" the situation....such a valuable life lesson vs. just you and the other parent giving $$ to the other family for a new glove.
Parenting is MUCH harder than I realized and it's so much more the emotional toll than the physical one.
hang in there and know you are NOT alone!!!!
I am so glad I have your blog to read. Each and every one of your posts I can either relate to, or they touch me in some way. This one totally made me teary. Parenting is hard. And so is growing up. We lived through all the growing up once already, and now we have to live through all the pain again....through our children.
You are such an amazing parent. You really are.
Thanks for posting this though...it's important to see the realistic side of parenting and know it's a job that is never done. What people tell me is that it gets less physical and more mental.
You did the right thing...good job, Mama!
Your post really hit home with me today. Last week my 6 year old was involved in an incident at school, which also 'broke off a peice of my heart'. It's scary to be a parent! Hats off to you & your husband for your response - it will be a lesson that eldest will never forget.
Mine are 24 and 21 and have emerged whole on the other side of many such life lessons. That his heart broke, and he is safe enough in your home to let it break, is such a blessing. For me, that was they key. Keeping home 'safe' enough so the hard, ugly, confusing, failure parts of growing up could be lived with family and surrounded by love and an 'in spite of' kind of acceptance was my goal. To this day I remember that first heart break...there's nothing else the feels quite like it. Sounds to me like you've found that illusive balance here between allowing him to feel and talk and learn for himself...and making your point. My greatest journey ~ with the richest blessings, has been this parenting journey...I wish for you the same!
Good job Mom (and Dad) - consequences are the best lessons we can teach our kids because they will take the wrong path some times and all we can do is work to put them back on track.


DO YOU FEEL IT? That queasy knot in the pit of your stomach? That's MONDAY. Sorry, folks.
FROM THE WEEKEND: Funding options, equity at issue in Duval County school facilities planning, by Beth Reese Cravey.
For the 2017-18 school year, Orange County Public Schools received about $308 million from impact fee and sales tax revenues to use for new schools and maintenance costs.
Duval County Public Schools, which has an estimated $1.08 billion worth of repair and replacement needs, received no money from those sources. For facilities, Duval only has property tax revenues and an annually decreasing amount of state maintenance money to work with.
'We are one of only two districts that don't collect anything other than [property tax] millage,' said Don Nelson, Duval's assistant superintendent for operations.
SURPRISE, SURPRISE, Jacksonville turns out to be cheap, at the expense of its aging schools. City Hall doesn't run the school system -- though some enterprising folks have tried to make that happen over the years -- but this George Costanza-level frugality should be the defining issue election after election because the story is the same with what the city controls as well: People suffer because of a hardened, mistaken belief the largest city by landmass in the continental United States can be run on fumes.
SPEAKING OF WHICH, SHAMELESS PLUG: Crime task force won't work if City Hall isn't willing to listen, by Nate Monroe.
The greatest strength of a Jacksonville task force is also its greatest weakness: A group of independent thinkers comes up with common-sense, courageous solutions to a vexing municipal problem.
The work makes everyone feel good because of how refreshing it is to see real solutions on the table — until it all gets crushed beneath the weight of political expediency, cowardice and selfishness in City Hall. If history is any guide, this will roughly be the path the city's new task force on violent crime will take.
ANNA BROSCHE HAS SOME CASH: One of the big unknowns in the race for mayor (is it really a race right now?) is whether City Councilwoman Anna Lopez Brosche can raise enough money to stay competitive with Mayor Lenny Curry, who basically has unlimited cash at his disposal thanks to the near-total surrender of the Syndicate.
Brosche reported Friday that she raised about $22,000 for her campaign account, and she has another $325,000 in a political committee supporting her candidacy (that's according to her campaign; those committees have later reporting deadlines).
THIS IS INTERESTING: Anna Brosche steps up Democratic outreach with Scott Arcenaeux hire, by Florida Politics' A.G. Gancarksi.
"Republican Anna Brosche, a Jacksonville City Councilwoman challenging incumbent Republican Lenny Curry in the Mayoral race, is stepping up outreach to Democratic constituencies.
Pivotal to those efforts: Scott Arcenaeux, the longtime former chair of the Florida Democratic Party, who is now aboard the Brosche campaign as a consultant.
'We are thrilled to have Scott's incredible talents on board to help Anna,' asserted Ryan Wiggins on behalf of the Brosche campaign.
'She is running her campaign the way she intends to run the city," Wiggins added, "with a team consisting of professionals on both sides of the political divide working together for a common goal.'"
BUYER BEWARE: RENDERINGS SUBJECT TO EXTREME CHANGE. JEA unveils concepts from contenders for headquarters, by David Bauerlein.
1. The financial details are still under wraps, so give me a break. These are just pretty pictures.
2. Give me a break. These are just pretty pictures.
Do you remember the amphitheater and "flex" field City Hall paid the Jaguars half the cost ($45 million) to build? More specifically, do you remember the Jetsons-like renderings the Jaguars handed out when the City Council voted on the taxpayer-financed incentive package? And can you look out your window now and see the industrial chicken coop we got instead? Renderings change, people. These pictures mean nothing.

Q: Installed Apache 2.4 (httpd) using Home Brew, can I get it to use macOS' php7? I'm running macOS 10.15 (Catalina) and have installed the latest Apache (2.4.43) using brew, basically following these steps.
Seems to be working fine, but now I want to enable PHP 7 in Apache as well.
I have the default PHP that comes with macOS Catalina (php -v says 7.3.11) however Apache's module dir (at least the latest Apache I installed with Home Brew) does not seem to contain any php modules.
I'm quite unsure what LoadModule line I have to add in httpd.conf in order to get PHP 7 working in my Apache server. And how or where I should get a PHP 7 .so module file if necessary.
When searching around I find all sorts of different approaches, including installing custom versions of PHP but I'm somewhat reluctant of the risk of messing up my current installation.
Is there an easy, and more importantly: reliable way of enabling PHP 7 in httpd 2.4?

A: Just install php with brew (and leave Apple's PHP alone):

*

*brew install php (requires a lot of additional packets)

*Modify /usr/local/etc/httpd/httpd.conf at the end of the LoadModule section (~ line 182) and add
LoadModule php7_module /usr/local/opt/php/lib/httpd/modules/libphp7.so

<FilesMatch \.php$>
    SetHandler application/x-httpd-php
</FilesMatch>

Check that DirectoryIndex (~line 286) includes index.php
DirectoryIndex index.php index.html

*Start php:
brew services start php

*Restart apache

Eyes are a window to the world. Eyes can't lie. In the digital era where we rely on our gadgets and laptops too heavily, healthy eyes are vital to our daily lives.
When we get older, our vision decreases. But we can start maintaining our eyes' health from very young age. Start eating nutritious foods helps you to protect your eyes. You've often heard that carrots are right for your sight, right? But, carrots are not the only one. Here are some fantastic foods that can sharpen your vision.
Spinach, kale, broccoli, for example, are sources of vitamins E and C.They also contain the carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin that can decrease the risk of macular degeneration disease such as cataract.
You have probably heard the benefits of omega-3, haven't you? Two omega-3 types are essential to your retinas; EPA and DHA. If you like eating fatty fish, there is good news for you. Tuna, salmon, and trout shield your eyes from serious diseases such as glaucoma and AMD.
Berries such as strawberries, blueberries are not only tasty but also rich in vitamin C. These fruits can lower risk of macular degeneration and cataracts. Blackcurrants contain the highest level of antioxidant anthocyanins.
Oranges, grapefruits, lemons, and tangerines are excellent sources of vitamin C which is vital to eyes'health. It is best to enjoy these types of fruits freshly. You can make a juice by combining oranges and carrots. Alternatively, drink a glass of water with a slice of lemon every morning.
A lemon juice drizzle and a little bit of olive oil can be a healthier option for your salad dressing.

As a musical group, the Okoye twins – Peter and Paul – have come a long way. After ruling the entertainment scene in Nigeria and Africa for about 14 years, winning many laurels in the process, it is unthinkable that they are about to tear the union apart at a time that the group has almost evolved into an institution.
The group known as P-Square started in St. Murumba Secondary School in Jos, capital of Plateau State, in the 1990s. Peter and Paul Okoye cut their teeth as singers and dancers in the school music and drama club before forming a group known as the Smooth Criminals in 1997.
Later, the brothers enrolled in a music school to receive formal training on how to play the keyboard, drums, bass and rhythm guitars. When the Smooth Criminals got disbanded, the twins, who were already household names in Jos, founded their own group. At different times, they named the group Double P and Da Pees before finally settling for PSquare.
nitially managed by Bayo Odusanmi, aka Howie T, a seasoned concert promoter, the PSquare started its musical journey on a sound note. The group won the Benson and Hedges Grab Da Mic talent hunt competition in 2001 and earned a well-deserved sponsorship for its debut album, titled Last Nite.
A few months later, the PSquare was nominated for the KORA Awards of the same year in the Most Promising African Group category. The icing on the cake came when the group won the 2003 Amen Award for Best R&B Group.
The PSquare had since gone ahead to win more awards. In its 14 years of existence, it recorded a total of six studio albums, including Game Over, the group's best-selling album that sold over 8 million copies all over the world.

It's no secret that fathers have historically been treated as second-class citizens in issues related to child custody, child support and visitation. Although many state laws now require Family Court judges to treat both mother and father equally and forbid judges from presuming that a mother is necessarily the only choice for custody issues, men still often find themselves treated unfairly. A fathers' rights attorney can help protect your legal rights as a dad and ensure you're treated justly in court when dealing with parenting issues that affect your children. Unmarried fathers who have signed voluntary paternity acknowledgements should also work with fathers' rights lawyers to obtain visitation and custody rights.

Wat Bophit Phimuk Worawihan (), or simple known as Wat Bophit Phimuk (or written as Wat Bopitpimukh) is a second grade royal temple in Bangkok, located on Chakkrawat Road, Chakkrawat Sub-district, Samphanthawong District near the foot of Phra Pok Klao Bridge on periphery of Chakkrawat Sub-district, Samphanthawong District and Wang Burapha Phirom Sub-district, Phra Nakhon District. Regarded as another Thai temple located in the area known as Chinatown, in addition to the Wat Traimit or the Wat Chakkrawat.

It is an ancient civil temple that has existed since the Ayutthaya period and named "Wat Teen Lane" (วัดตีนเลน) or "Wat Choeng Lane" (วัดเชิงเลน), due to the temple's location near the east bank of the Chao Phraya River where the area had an abundance of mud (lane in Thai means mud). This temple does not know who created it. Assumed that it would be built after the King Narai's reign, because it does not appear in Thonburi map in those days.

Around 1781 during the King Phutthayotfa Chulalok (Rama I)'s reign, Prince Anurak Devesh who was a king's cousin renovated the entire temple and the king named it Wat Bophit Phimuk to honour him. In the King Phutthaloetla Naphalai (Rama II)'s reign, an epidemic of cholera killed many people and their bodies were piled in the temple's graveyard alike to Wat Saket and Wat Sangwet. In King Nangklao (Rama III)'s reign, the wood structures were demolished and replaced by masonry buildings. Later, King Mongkut (Rama IV) had the temple restored again and a teak wooden pavilion was built with the design of the King's emblem, a royal crown on a pedestal guarded by mythical creatures. This still appears on the front and side of the pavilion. The monks' dwellings reflex a combination of Thai and Chinese architectural styles.

The principal Buddha statue of the temple is Buddha statue in Māravijaya posture namely "Phra Sam Phuttha Bophit" (พระสัมพุทธบพิตร) enshrined within the main hall.

2020 Dodge Durango at Fred Martin Superstore
One thing that comes to mind when you think of the Dodge Durango is space. And with the 2020 Durango, you will find room for up to seven passengers to go along with a bevy of high-tech infotainment features and driver-assist systems. If we could describe the way the Dodge Durango looks in one word, it would be American. After all, the Durango comes with aggressive styling and a muscle car-like performance with the ability to tow up to 8,600 pounds and 8.1-inch ground clearance. While this version of the Dodge Durango has been around for a while, it still provides families with everything they could want in an SUV with things like comfort, style, and safety. Read on to find out all the things that the Dodge Durango offers.
3.6-liter V6 engine
Eight-Speed Automatic Transmission
Tows up to 6,400 Pounds
Blind-Spot Monitoring
Electric Stability Control
Keyless Entry/Ignition
What engines are there to choose from?
Most newer SUV you come across will start their engine lineup with a turbocharged four-cylinder, but the Dodge Durango begins with a powerful V6. In this case, it's a 3.6-liter V6 with 293 horsepower with a single exhaust and 295 horsepower with a double exhaust. The engine not only provides an excellent response but allows the Durango to tow up to 6,400 pounds. Standard on the R/T and optional on the Citadel is a 5.7-liter V8, which produces a class-leading 360 horsepower and 390 lb-ft of torque, which is the ideal choice for those who want a ton of power without taking a hit in the wallet. The last option is a 6.4-liter V8 that pumps out 475 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque, which is available on the all-wheel-drive SRT. Most Durango's come with rear-wheel-drive with the option of all-wheel-drive. The V8 engines with all-wheel-drive also come with a low transfer case with a neutral position. All Durangos come with an eight-speed automatic transmission.
What are the notable features of the 2020 Dodge Durango?
Along with five-passenger seating, the base SXT comes with tri-zone automatic climate control, 18-inch alloy wheels, load-leveling rear shock absorbers, heated side mirrors, and keyless entry/ignition. Tech features include an infotainment system that includes Bluetooth, six speakers, and a 7-inch touchscreen. The further you move up trim levels, the more features become available. These include automatic high beams, a power tailgate, sunroof, navigation, Nappa leather seats, and much more! Getting a Durango with a V8 engine also gets you beefier breaks, while the SRT has a sport-tuned adaptive suspension as standard. There are a ton of available options for the Durango so you can customize your SUV however you want. Options for the base SXT include a sunroof, roof rails, cosmetic add ons, 20-inch alloy wheels, trailer-prep package, and rear parking sensors. Higher trim levels are eligible for more options, including a 19-speaker Harman Kardon audio system, an 8.4-inch infotainment system with navigation, and a rear-seat Blu-ray/DVD entertainment system.
What are some of the safety features?
The 2020 Dodge Durango comes with the latest cutting edge safety features to help keep you safe and secure as you travel down the open road. Available is an Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop. The system helps keep your speed under control. The Durango uses throttle control and minimal breaking when detecting slow traffic ahead to adjust cruising speed and keep you at a safe distance. Also available is a Blind Spot Monitoring System, which helps you keep track of your surroundings by alerting you when a vehicle enters one of your blind spot zones, which allows you to make safe lane changes.
Final Thoughts on the 2020 Dodge Durango
The abundance of space isn't the only thing we love about the Dodge Durango! There is also a powerful engine lineup, a bevy of technologically advanced features, and more saftey features than we can mention in this article. We could talk all day about the greatness of the Dodge Durango, but the best way to experience it is to take a test drive!

Does history show the future for the Royal Marines?
Dr Martin Watts explains how recent questions about the future of the Royal Marines as part of the UK's Defence strategy is nothing new.
As the government reviews its defence commitments and expenditure, the future of the Royal Marines, a Corps that has been in existence since 1664, has been thrown into doubt.
In recent media comment, the House of Commons select committee on defence has warned the government that any move to reducing the Corps, and with it Britain's ability to undertake amphibious operations, would have serious consequences for Britain's standing in NATO. Furthermore, by pointing out that the marines are responsible for supplying 40% of special forces personnel, their reduction would damage anti-terrorism capability at a time of heightened security.
This is nothing new. The role and very existence of the Royal Marines has come under close scrutiny many times before, most notably in the aftermath of the First World War when defence expenditure and a weakened economy combined to reduce the Corps, and thereby generate the Madden Report of 1924.
These events saw the amalgamation of the then Royal Marine Light Infantry and Royal Marine Artillery into a single unit, mainly serving at sea on larger warships. Although trained as infantry their main employment was in serving part of a ship's armament, helping the Royal Navy overcome a shortage in highly trained gunnery crews. Madden also envisaged the amphibious role but, due to lack of funds, this was not properly implemented until the Second World War.
In 1942 Royal Marine Commando units were formed, two years after the initial Commandos were raised by the Army, and it is in this role that the Royal Marines found their primary purpose in post war de-colonisation conflicts and in the Falklands.
Royal Marines also have an important role in NATO, offering amphibious and northern operating capabilities which form a highly flexible and valuable component of the Alliance's forces.
We shall have to wait and see if 2018 is a repeat of 1923, as Britain once again reviews its place in the world, and the role of a highly skilled and elite force within it.
Dr Martin Watts is a Senior Lecturer in Modern History and Principal Research Fellow for Centre for Kent History and Heritage. His new book, The Royal Marines and the War at Sea 1939-45, by Amberley Publishing, is available from Thursday, 15 February 2018.

And the band played on: 30 years after the Deal bombing


NEW YORK, Sept. 27 (UPI) — Crude oil prices moved lower in early Tuesday trading amid dimming prospects for an oil production agreement in Algeria and a drop in global growth estimates.
Ministers from major energy-producing countries are meeting for an international energy conference in Algeria amid uncertainty in the oil economy. For months, rumors have circulated that producers may freeze or cut production levels in an effort to stimulate oil prices.
Iranian Oil Minister Bijan Zanganeh said there was no offer on the table so far from arch-rival Saudi Arabia.
"We have not yet received any official proposals from this country," he was quoted as saying by the oil ministry's news website SHANA.
Similar proposals early this year were derailed after Iran said it needed to regain a market share lost to economic sanctions imposed because of Tehran's controversial nuclear program. Iran's oil minister this week said no deal would evolve out of the meetings in Algeria, insisting they were only consultative in nature.
With prospects for a formal deal fading, the price of oil reversed course from Monday's session. The price for Brent crude oil fell 2.6 percent to start the day in New York at $46.11 per barrel. West Texas Intermediate, the U.S. benchmark price for oil, lost 2.8 percent from the previous session to open at $44.64 per barrel.
Prices were influenced by a downward revision in the pace of economic growth from the World Trade Organization. The WTO attributed the decline to slowing gross domestic product and slumping trade from the world's biggest economies.
Roberto Azevedo, the WTO's director general, said growing isolationist sentiments, led in part by the British decision to leave the European Union and rising frustration with U.S. trade policies on the presidential campaign trail, was cause for alarm.
"We need to make sure that this does not translate into misguided policies that could make the situation much worse," he said in a statement.
The WTO said it expected world trade would expand by 1.7 percent this year, below its 2.8 percent forecast from April. In terms of the global economy, it said WTO growth of 2.2 percent would mark the slowest pace of trade and output growth since the financial crisis of 2009.


Mexican troops left Tucson on March 10, 1856. As historian John Bret Harte explained in his book "Tucson, Portrait of a Desert Pueblo," they stayed 21 months after the city officially became part of the United States because, well, "there had been no Anglo force to take their place." There still wasn't on that March day, but "nine Anglos pieced together ocotillo canes to make a flagpole and ran up Old Glory in what is now El Presidio Park," Bret Harte wrote.
It does not appear that the Fourth of July was much of a public event during our early years in the USA. The oldest reference I find in a newspaper is an 1871 account in the Arizona Weekly Citizen that describes how the holiday was "creditably celebrated" here. Guns were fired at Camp Lowell, the courthouse was adorned with flags and the Declaration of Independence was read.
Chief Justice John Titus gave a fine oration, the newspaper said, but "having been pressed into service the previous evening, the justice attempted no studied address." A brass and string band played "Yankee Doodle" and the whole affair wrapped up at about noon. "The assemblage dispersed, feeling that it was good to have been there, and better still to be an American Citizen."

The cards are stacked in favour of Las Vegas band Panic! at the Disco who return to the UK for a short tour that includes a show at Wolverhampton Civic Hall on May 10.
The group are currently on a roll after supporting Fall Out Boy on their 2013 Save Rock and Roll Arena Tour and scoring a British top ten hit with latest album Too Weird To Live, Too Rare To Die! The record also yielded hit singles Miss Jackson and This Is Gospel.
Too Weird To Live, Too Rare To Die! , which was produced by Butch Walker of Fall Out Boy and Weezer fame, pays homage to the band's Vegas roots with a bundle of high-energy, synth-led anthems showcasing some of frontman Brendon Urie's most introspective songwriting to date.
Formed in 2004 by Brendon Urie, Spencer Smith, Brent Wilson and Ryan Ross, Panic's 2005 first album, A Fever You Can't Sweat Out, remains one of the biggest-selling debuts in the history of their label, Fueled By Ramen. It spawned their double platinum-selling single, I Write Sins Not Tragedies, which led to various Grammy Award nods and an MTV Video Music Award for Video of the Year.
The band's last album, Vices & Virtues, was released in 2011 and featured the singles The Ballad of Mona Lisa and Ready To Go (Get Me Out Of My Mind).
May 13: Belfast Mandela Hall.

Fashion Wiki » Alina Selyaeva
alina-selyaeva
alina-selyaeva [Oct 11, 2017 13:31] (current)
+ ====== Alina Selyaeva ======
+ Alina Selyaeva was born on October 4th, 1991 in Penza, Russia.  She is one of the top runway Russian models. Alina started off her career by sheer luck as she was recognized as a face of model in her home town by a model scout who was from Moscow. With a beautiful body and gorgeous facial features, Alina's talent was recognized by the model scout and she was invited to work with the agency. This marked the start of her modeling career and she was lucky enough to bump into another agent from Storm models London. Along with the agent, she travelled to London, where she signed her agreement with the Storm agency.
+ ===== Career Highlights =====
+ Alina Selyaeva is a Russian model. She inaugurated her first appearance in London at the fall jaeger, Nathan Jenden, and Sinha-Stanic shows. In February 2008, she walked the fall Marni show in Milan, which is one of the best shows. Her achievements started rising when she got her first model of the week on 21st February,2008. She again appeared in Russian L'Official editorial on March. This was a major milestone in her career and gave her a major boost in the modeling career. Alina, then, signed with supreme management in New York which was another very good modeling agency. Carrying on, she walked the resort Prada show in New York and modeled for Just Cavalli fall look book. Finally during the same year, she started off the spring Ann-Sofie Beck show in London.
+ There have been very less appearances of the Russian model since 2008, and it seems that she hasn't quite reached the position her potential offered. The Russian model is an epitome of beauty and her blue eyes are her most valuable feature. Although she has spent a very little time modeling and hasn't been offered many projects, but the work she has done speaks for itself. Alina hasn't had a chance to work for the top designers that might have brightened her chances in the fashion industry. Another achievement of Alina is that she has been listed in the top 10 hottest Russian models by stylebistro.

Over six full decades, from his arrival on the national scene in 1945 until his death in 1991, Miles Davis made music that grew from an uncanny talent to hear the future and a headstrong desire to play it. From his beginnings in the circle of modern jazz, he came to intuit new worlds of sound and challenge. While the vast majority of musicians – jazz, rock, R&B, otherwise – find the experimental charge and imperviousness of youth eventually running down, Miles forever forged ahead, trusting and following instinct until the end. In doing so, Miles became the standard bearer for successive generations of musicians, shaped the course of modern improvisational music more than a half-dozen times.

Education focus: Q&A with children's education app blogger Stuart Dredge
By MEFDecember 2, 2015Opinions, Sector focus
UK-based technology journalist Stuart Dredge works primarily for The Guardian and the music industry consultancy Musically. But he is also a parent with a keen interest in how children interact with mobiles and tablets.
In September 2010, he created the Apps Playground site with his wife to review iOS and Android apps for youngsters. This led to the publication of an iPad e-book, Apps Playground's 100 Best Apps for Kids, which sold through Apple's iBooks store in 2013.
Stuart is now regarded as an expert commentator on the market for educational apps. He has appeared at events run by BAFTA, The Children's Media Conference and many more. MEF Minute quizzed him about the evolution of this important market sector.
On the positive side, I believe the the sector benefits from not trying to foist a new behaviour on children. They clearly love interacting with mobiles and tablets. At present, many of them are gravitating towards games like Candy Crush and Minecraft. But they will discover good educational content if it's designed well.
How did Apps Playground get started?
I was a technology writer with an iPad, a three year-old son and a curiosity about what kind of apps were being made for children. So almost on a whim I registered appsplayground.com and bodged together a WordPress blog.
In 2013, just under 288,000 people visited the site to read about the iOS and Android apps that we'd found. It's a labour of love for my wife and I, really. And for our two sons or unpaid app review assistants, as we know them.
How would you summarise the market for children's educational apps now?
I think it's pretty tough for publishers. There are so many cool apps out there, but I don't think too many are making money. I get the impression that when we launched our site, there was loads of enthusiasm around, and lots of people were leaving traditional publishing companies in order to make apps. Most of them didn't last long.
Why is the market so challenging?
A lot of it is due to parents being unwilling to spend money. They don't seem to want to pay premium fees – up to £10 in the UK for example. At the same time, they can be suspicious of freemium and in-app purchases. It's a bit unfair.
Why is it unfair?
Well, they have the impression that in-app purchases are risky in some way. It obviously comes from reading headlines about kids racking up huge sums from games. But the apps I'm reviewing are very controlled and sensible. They might ask parents to buy a new story, for example. That seems very fair. But the perception of risk is there anyway.
What about ad-funded apps?
There's a similar issue there. Some parents seem unhappy with in-app advertising. Again, it's a bit unreasonable when they accept ads on, say, Nickelodeon TV.
Which publishers are doing well?
The good thing about this market is that parents and children will stay loyal to good brands. It's not like gaming where you can have one hit and then struggle to follow it up. So companies like Story Toys in Ireland, Nosy Crow in the UK and ToccaBoca in Sweden have all done well.
They've all worked very hard to develop a unique look and feel, and to keep their customers coming back. Toca Boca generated SEK 82.2m (£6.1m) in 2014, which is pretty good, though it's nothing like what the games giants earn. Candy Crush Saga players spent £865m on in-app purchases in 2014, for example. That's a year's worth of Toca Boca sales every three days.
How do parents and children discover new content?
That's improved a lot recently. Apple created a children's category on its app store. It used to be that these apps were spread across entertainment, games, books and education, so it was a bit of a mess. Google Play has done the same and sometimes has guest curators.
Video has become very important too. In fact, I'm sensing that YouTube may be a new direction for some children's app publishers. There's a channel called Little Baby Bum, for example, that makes animated nursery rhymes. In 2014, it was the 36th biggest channel on YouTube with more than 1bn views. It probably has over 2bn now. I think that YouTube offers an instant route to millions of viewers and also to revenue.

What's the future for children's educational apps?
I also detect a change in attitudes to screen time. We're at this stage where parents are worried about it and there are even tools for limiting access or even tracking what kids are doing. I'm not convinced by these controls. I think you need to trust children. In time, I think parents might relax a little. So much depends on what kids are actually doing on their screens. Will parents worry so much if they are googling their homework, or learning a language? It's all about moderation.
