Appointment of alleged war criminal to head of Sri Lanka army 'deeply troubling', says UN human rights chief

The appointment of Sri Lankan Lieutenant-General Shavendra Silva as Commander of the country's army is deeply troubling, UN human rights chief Michelle Bachelet said in a statement released on Monday, adding that the military leader had been given the role despite "serious allegations of gross violations of international human rights and humanitarian law against him and his troops during the war".
Lieutenant-General Silva commanded Sri Lanka's 58th Division during the final stages of the military campaign against the LTTE rebel Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) in 2009, commonly known as the Tamil Tigers, and UN investigations have implicated the division in alleged serious violations of international humanitarian and human rights law.
The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights said that "the promotion of Lieutenant-General General Silva severely compromises Sri Lanka's commitment to promote justice and accountability in the context of Human Rights Council resolution 30/1", which promotes reconciliation, accountability and human rights in Sri Lanka.
She added that the promotion "undermines reconciliation efforts, particularly in the eyes of victims and survivors who suffered greatly in the war. It also sets back security sector reform, and is likely to impact on Sri Lanka's ability to continue contributing to UN peacekeeping efforts."
This is not the first time that Ms. Bachelet has expressed concerns about Lieutenant-General Silva and his role in the Sri Lankan army: in March this year, she described his previous appointment, as Army Chief of Staff, as a "worrying development" in a report to the Human Rights Council.
In March, Ms. Bachelet also warned that there has been "minimal progress" on setting up mechanisms to deal with the worst crimes committed during the conflict during 2009, and called for the establishment of an independent Truth and Reconciliation Commission and a vetting process to remove officers with questionable human rights records.
The Sri Lankan Government declared victory over the LTTE in May 2009, after a conflict that had raged on and off for nearly three decades and killed thousands of people: the final months of fighting before the Sri Lankan Government declared victory over the Tamil Tigers in May, generated concerns about alleged violations of international human rights and humanitarian law.

Last time when I was down at the airport, keeping up my currency I had the good fortune to run into Bob, he'd just finished up with a CPL student and was waiting on his next.
I'd just finished my "three times around the block" circuits for currency and was reasonably happy with how it all went.
We fell back into old routines quickly, chatting about flying, the world in general and our usual topics.
"Hell!" I reply with the kind of laugh that indicates I'm actually being fairly truthful.
He gives the half shrug and wry smile that I understand all too well.
"You too, huh? To be honest that's one of the reasons I'm flying today. I just felt the need to burn through some sky. To be up there, even if it was just circuits, you know?" I respond.
A look passed between us, a moment of clarity and entire mutual understanding. Bob knew exactly what I was talking about.
Flying is amazing, awe inspiring and satisfying. In the circuit there's a rhythm, a cadence to the flying and yet you still have to be hyper aware as to what's going on around you.
You switch off the parts of your brain that are p!ssed at your boss, the parts that are frustrated at the world and replace them with the memory of muscles needed to land, the mental processes need to parse what ATC is trying to do.
You can't hang on to the useless crap that circulates through your mind at 3:00am in the morning. You are simultaneously exercising the most primal survival seeking parts of your brain as you do something that no human was ever designed to. While at the same time you need every single one your highest order mental processes to carry out the multitude of tasks required.
There's simply no room for anything else.
All the emotional baggage you pick up just goes.
Flying is the ultimate paradox in that it demands total and utter concentration while at the same time totally clearing your mind.

AirConnect links airport with downtown convention facilities
Visitors to Columbus now have a speedy, low-cost way to get from John Glenn Columbus International Airport to downtown convention facilities – and vice versa.
Central Ohio Transit Authority (COTA) began running its new AirConnect service between downtown and the airport in early May as an alternative to higher priced transportation and freeway gridlock.
"It's a lot better than other means," says COTA President and Chief Executive Officer W. Curtis Stitt. "It only costs $2.75 each way, so it's very economical. It runs every half hour, and especially during rush hour it's faster than other means because when freeway traffic gets congested, AirConnect is allowed to travel on the shoulder."
The service arrives at designated stops downtown every 30 minutes, seven days a week. After exiting I-670, AirConnect will drops passengers at the Greater Columbus Convention Center, the Hilton Columbus Downtown and the Hampton Inn & Suites before traveling south to a host of other hotels.
Stitt notes that AirConnect tickets are available at many of Columbus' downtown hotels, at the airport or – with correct change – on the bus itself.
While the service has only been running for a short time, Stitt says response has been promising.
"We know it will take a while to build ridership, but I've ridden it a half dozen times," he says. "Every person, with one exception, said they heard about AirConnect by reading information in their conference packets. With the help of the FCCFA and Experience Columbus, people visiting Columbus are learning what their options are for coming downtown from the airport."
Positive comments on the new service are starting to make their way into TripAdvisor reviews of the Hilton.
"The new AirConnect bus service can get you here for a nominal cost," wrote one visitor.
"The hotel does not offer airport transfer, however AirConnect has a bus stop just outside the hotel which only costs USD $2.75," wrote another.
Finally, one visitor wrote, "A hassle-free AirConnect bus ride from the airport to the hotel (and enjoyed the 'free' C-BUS Circulator bus ride to get around)."

Alina tucked her hair behind her ears, the sea breeze tingled at her cheeks, numbing her nose. It was a freezing, snowy winter day. It had to be freezing for it to snow so close to the sea. She shivered, shoving her hands in her pockets as she trudged down to the village. Frauke had taken over the shop buying Alina's father out despite his attempt to give it to her.
Alina shook her head. How Frauke had that effect on him she wasn't sure. Okay, so that wasn't quite the truth, she wasn't exactly immune to Frauke's soft smile or her laugh or that infuriating habit of being funny even when Alina was trying to be mad.
It had been two years since she gave up the city and came home. Two years of running a small country legal practice. It should bore her senseless but it didn't. Contrary to every one of her doubts, she was happier than she'd ever been. She twiddled the ring on her finger, that had much to do with the owner of said soft smile too.
Neighbours who had once ceased to recognise her waved jolly hellos, asked how she was doing, how her parents were, and yes… how Frauke was too. She wasn't Alina, the lawyer, anymore. She came as a unit with the people she loved.
"Pensive face, either you've forgotten what snow looks like or I left lemon juice in your tea cup."
Alina beamed. In spite of the fact she was attempting not to. In spite of the fact that she needed to be serious and have an adult discussion, she knew she looked more like a besotted teenager. Ah well. "Lemon juice, really?"
Frauke turned around, seashell necklace clunking as she did so. Her hair burnt copper, her eyes a twinkling charcoal. "Made you smile, didn't it?"
It had. Alina found herself smiling again then cleared her throat as a neighbour passed by the window. "I had a letter today."
Frauke waved to the neighbour, one eye on her current piece of work. "You get lots of letters."
So she'd seen it then. "It's an amazing offer."
"That's how the supermarkets lure you in. Don't listen, it's not really buy one get one free at all." Frauke's clothes were splattered with clay, her fingers, her face. She was as messy at home.
"Funny." Alina sighed knowing from the attempt at wit that Frauke was worried. "If I took it, I would be away most of the time."
Frauke nodded, her eyes on the pot in her hands.
"It would mean leaving here for months."
Frauke nodded again. Her gaze too intense on the pot, her eyes glinting with unshed tears. "You need to do what is best for you. You worked hard, I can't expect you to give—"
"I ripped it up."
The pot in Frauke's hand clunked out of her grip. She stared, blinking a few times.
"Well say something."
Frauke continued to stare. Her eyes so filled with shock it tickled Alina, making laughter spill from her lips.
"You… It's… The wage they offered…" Frauke frowned. "The perks."
"What would I need it for?" She leaned her hip against the counter, her usual space these days. "Did you really think I'd want to leave you?"
Frauke shrugged. She flexed her long neck, which Alina knew was to ward off tears. Soppy thing.
"I came to make sure you knew that." Alina ran her finger over the clay covered countertop. "Didn't want you worrying about it all day."
Frauke nodded.
"Mum wants to know if you want lunch." She smiled. It wasn't often Frauke was stuck for words. "I want to know if you'll shut up early and come build a snowman."
Frauke's eyes lit up. She still didn't seem to have the ability to speak.
"You remember when we used to build them as kids?" Alina knew full well she did but it was worth the smile on Frauke's face. "Your grandmother wasn't happy I'd stolen most of her carrots."
"Well one snowman would be lonely." Frauke's voice sounded so quiet, so raw with tears. She wiped her hands on her jeans, shrugged on her thick jacket and flicked the sign to closed.
"Which is why I wanted to build a family." Alina shook her head. She'd been a daft kid.
Frauke locked up, beaming at her. "And pets."
Alina nodded the warmth of the smile filling her heart. "And they needed somewhere to live."
"And neighbours." Frauke walked close, kids skidded past on makeshift sleds, the lights in each shop twinkled as Christmas filled the air.
"And their pets." Alina took Frauke's hand and dragged her up the hill.
"Think you cleaned out her pantry." Frauke tugged at her. "Why the rush?"
"I'm cold." She tried to keep the grin off her face.
"Alina… what are you—oh." Frauke halted, a stunned look on her face. Her eyes shed the brimming tears.
Alina motioned to the carrots on the ground. It wasn't her most suave moment by all means but it made her giggle. She'd hoped Frauke would have done the same. Tears, she hadn't expected.
"You've never said it before." Frauke sounded even more hoarse.
"So you didn't want me to?" Maybe not the cleverest idea. Maybe it had been rash. It wasn't like she ever said anything remotely sweet. Maybe Frauke liked it that way. She stared down at the carrots.
"Of course." Frauke squeezed her hand. "I just… No one has ever told me they loved me with vegetables before."
Alina shrugged. "I was going for twenty two carrots but that only got me to 'I lo.'"
"Yes, I can see why that would be a problem." Frauke's tears dribbled faster, then her lips parted and that soft, warm laughter rippled out, then built until it was a roar.
"Are you mocking my healthy option for bearing my heart? They give you vitamin A, you know."
Frauke bent double, her shoulders shaking with the laughter which was now silent punctuated with gasps.
"It's a good way to show love isn't blind, right?" Alina fought hard to stop the rumbling giggles pouring out.
Frauke grabbed her and dragged to next to the wonky U.
"Shuffle your feet." She held Alina's hand, shoving show out in front of her with her boots. "It takes the both of us."
"What… oh."
Frauke turned her to look at the tracks they'd just made. "Come on, let's go warm up, I'm freezing."
"I'm not." Alina's teeth chattered but she didn't feel cold.
"Let's go home." Frauke led her through the gate and turned to close it. Alina looked at her parents' garden knowing she'd have to explain to her mother later but it didn't matter. The carrots and shovelled snow spelled out why her heart bubbled with joy.
'I love you II'
Home. Yeah, she was home.
If you'd like to know how Alina and Frauke got to carrots, the first part of their story, Fields of Gold, is in Stories For Homes.
It's a special project to help people who aren't as lucky with vegetables. For those who don't have somewhere warm. There's over sixty stories from many authors crammed in and every penny, every single cent, dime, dollar, euro, pistachio nut, goes to Shelter. For those who don't know, Shelter work to help the homeless and those threatened with homelessness. Debi Alper and Sally Swingewood allowed us to be a part of making a difference. You get stories, someone else gets the help they need.
That's worth a massive smile!

The Camden 28
How far would you go to stop a war? The Camden 28 recalls a 1971 raid on a Camden, N.J., draft board office by "Catholic Left" activists protesting the Vietnam War and its effects on urban America. Arrested on site in a clearly planned sting, the protesters included four Catholic priests, a Lutheran minister, and 23 others. The Camden 28 reveals the story behind the arrests — a provocative tale of government intrigue and personal betrayal — and the ensuing legal battle, which Supreme Court Justice William Brennan called "one of the great trials of the 20th century." Thirty-five years later, the participants take stock of the motives, fears, and costs of their activism — and its relevance to America today.

Just so you all know...
Discussion in 'The Undercity' started by seebs, Mar 29, 2017.
So, the thing with posting a rule and posting mod guidelines and things that's coming up?
That's a change. We're trying to clarify things and get everyone to acknowledge and agree to them.
What's not a change is deleting or moving posts that are too angry or fighty, which is a thing we were doing back in 2015. We haven't always been consistent about it, we haven't always been good about it, but it's not a new thing, and it's not specific to particular people. But that's not a thing that's contingent on the posting of a New Rule; that's a thing that we've always done, and doesn't require any new agreements or anything.
There's a thing where a mod can put you on post moderation temporarily; by default it wears off after about 24 hours. It comes with a PM telling you what happened. It would be super cool not to react to it by, oh, hypothetically, spamming the mod queue with personal insults and attacks directed at the mods.

michinyo On that Dumb Bitch Juice diet
Cool seebs, why don't you directly talk to the user that did the thing instead of vagueing about it like some 12 year old girl?
michinyo, Mar 29, 2017 at 10:35 PM
BlackholeKG I saw you making fire
Okay, but seriously; did all those Alix posts trying to incite suicide not qualify? At the time a lot of them were left up for a while. Surely that would be the one area where the moving/deleting would definitely be consistently applicable?
BlackholeKG, Mar 29, 2017 at 10:38 PM
BlackholeKG said: ↑
This is why I call bullshit and double standards.
Faaaavourtiiiissssmmmmm
Hobo HEYYEYAAEYAAAEYAEYAA
Doing something only a few times and leaving a bunch of really blatant asshole posts up, making entire threads dedicated to whether things are OK to say in vent threads (where the consensus seemed to end up being 'you can say it, but don't pretend you didn't just because it's in Holler Closet')... that doesn't say that this thing has ever been any sort of rule. You've been so intensely inconsistent about it that trying to act like this isn't new is some serious bullshit.
Hobo, Mar 29, 2017 at 10:43 PM
Lizardlicks Friendly Neighborhood Lizard
My experience is that Seebs vagues because it has happened MULTIPLE TIMES with VERY DIFFERENT USERS. It is left vague because it applies to everybody and being posted as a general notification because not just one or two people are guilty of it, so she feels the need to make a general notif for everyone to see.
Lizardlicks, Mar 29, 2017 at 10:44 PM
Lizardlicks said: ↑
No we know what this is actually about and you don't, so don't assume.
Maybe it'd be helpful to appoint a more diverse range of mods? At the moment the moderation team is largely people who you were already particular friends with Seebs, and who agree with your viewpoints (presumably why they were chosen), which might at the very least create a perception of bias.
I don't think appointing more people from other corners of the forum could hurt. Why not a system where users nominate people that they reckon would be good moderators, and then new mods are chosen with the concept of having a variety of experiences and the like in mind?
Why, yes, yes they would qualify! If they were made now. Which they can't be because Alix is on post moderation.
It's called "learning from mistakes". We made a lot of mistakes. We're trying to do better now.

True, I'm not involved in the drama, (and at this point am starting to become a little resentful of the fact that it's effecting my use and participation of the website) but just pointing out, I may not be the only one making assumptions here.
Hobo said: ↑
And yeah, it does seem kinda inconsistent to have this huge to-do over whether vent thread stuff is okay and with no clear consensus being arrived at - beyond a general sense that it is okay to say some bad stuff in vent threads - as well as previous moderator statements involving the term "text crimes" (with the undercurrent that what people vent is not actually that much that the forum needs to concern itself with) - and then start confining posts and users to the naughty zone on what does seem a fairly impromptu basis.
Which user, specifically? At least five people so far have complained about this. At least.
And Michi... This is a great example of why I sometimes just avoid your posts, because this is rude, and insulting, and you're making assumptions that are as it turns out just plain false. Because you are specifically stating that it's exactly one user, and it's not. And if you'd asked, I coulda told you that.
I will say that this is Definitely About A Specific Thing That Just Happened, so.
Okay, I'm clearly not communicating well. I'm gonna have to stop for a bit, but just...
Hobo, please. Consider for a brief moment that I have a long history of articulating things badly when stressed and yelled at, and that I'm not a complete idiot, and that I'm not usually actually habitually dishonest about things, especially since I work so very hard to make sure that the complete record is available for anyone to look at.
I'm not saying there's no change. I'm saying that the mere fact that some posts get deleted and some users get post moderation is not, itself, a huge change that could never happen prior to the actual Big Revamp which was aimed for this weekend or so. Yes, the parameters are changing.
You, and a few dozen other users, were actively advocating for changes along these lines for two years. I'm trying to actually do the thing because you did in fact convince me that, yes, we need to put more effort into dealing with less-extreme violations, and yes, we should absolutely be better about dealing with the really blatant asshole posts.
Are you volunteering to help? Because we have very few people, and the thing where everyone figures it's 100% open season to personally attack anyone who's affiliated with moderation is not really helping with that.
as usual this is total bullshit and you trying to have an educated discussion on why it was totally fine to harass user X for doing Y while ignoring user Z who is also DOING Y didn't need to be responded to is also bullshit.
leo, Mar 29, 2017 at 10:54 PM
Not disputing that, but I'm disputing that it's "vaguing". It's not directed at one single user; several people made the claim I was responding to.
the response to being called a hypocrite is not making a thread for being a hypocrite in justified the different response to the similar situation, also fun fact.
Honestly Seebs I really can't blame Michi for being abrasive at this point.
I can very easily see why from her perspective what she's been through has been exceptionally hurtful and why she is so distrustful of the mods' ability to do enough. And I think that that's real hurt that should be acknowledged that the moderation here is partially responsible whether or not you believe the best paths of action have been taken.
If what had happened to Michi had happened to me and the discourse had been so much in defense of Alix from the part of the mods, well, I'd likely feel the way she does as well. I know that you've talked about how that was unintentional and because of the way that certain actions were being perceived rather than how they were intended. But neither does that mean that Michi is at fault for being hurt by them and being distrustful and angry when confronted with your discourse style. Its an easy mindset to understand.
spockandawe soft and woolen and writhing with curiosity
I mean, though. My knee-jerk reaction from where I'm sitting is that this definitely feels bad, but also Seebs and I just very recently had a mini-debate about using immediate cases versus general cases. I talked about how expanding out to the general case frustrates people who care about what's happening right now, and makes people feel that Seebs is deliberately ignoring what just happened. Also a thing about how it makes folks thing that Seebs is trying to trivialize whatever just happened or brush it under a rug by bringing in other things. And that when people can think of exceptions to a general case, it weakens the statement (and the idea that this is supposed to apply on a broader scale) and gets them more frustrated.
But also, this has consistently been the way Seebs approaches any forum issue. I keep getting fussed over this thing when it happens, and having to recalibrate for oh, right, Seebs takes this angle to problem-solving, right. Even within conversations, I slip and have to adjust. I think this is literally the first time I've managed to carry over that knowledge from one conversation to the next.
I get the reason Seebs is getting reactions with this flavor of emotion, and I definitely get the frustration, but this is a very, VERY established pattern with how Seebs approaches forum management. Trying to narrow in on specific cases is going to be very difficult, because Seebs is going to keep adjusting to a wider picture. Seebs doesn't have the typical emotional reaction to what's happening in the moment, and doesn't feel the same intense pull to dig deep into the one particular event that just happened. So Seebs thinks addressing things in a broader context is important for future management (even if things have been applied inconsistently in the past, and maybe have been erratically applied even lately). And Seebs also doesn't want to set conditions that are specifically tailored to a single particular person. So this is going to slip hard into broader context, no matter how people come at it.

Govt committed to fiscal consolidation, helping infrastructure: Sitharaman
Press Trust of India/New Delhi 10 Jul 19 | 04:16 PM
The government will control the fiscal deficit without compromising on public expenditure, said Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Wednesday.
The government has set the fiscal deficit target at 3.3 per cent of GDP for 2019-20, she said in the Lok Sabha in her reply to the general discussion on Budget 2019-20.
"We will move GST Council to reduce the GST rate on e- vehicles from 12 per cent to 5 per cent," she said.
The minister said the government plans to invest over Rs 100 lakh crore in developing infrastructure in the next five years. She said the government has increased Minimum Support Price (MSP) for all 22 commodities.
Sitharaman further said the government has been taking several steps to achieve $5 trillion economy by 2024-25.


Technical Abstract: Recently, the 2009 human H1N1 influenza virus was identified in turkey breeders in Chile, Canada and the U.S. resulting in infection and production losses. In these studies sera from turkeys vaccinated against avian influenza H1 were tested against the recent human pandemic H1N1 virus. Genetic analysis demonstrated 92 percent nucleotide similarity in hemagglutinin gene sequences between avian and human H1N1. High levels of HI antibody were observed against the homologous avian vaccine viruses, while minimal cross reaction was observed against the human H1N1. Taken together, the current turkey H1N1 vaccines may have limited cross protection against the human pandemic H1N1.

Ken Loach just handed Labour's arse to it on a plate
Steve Topple
Director Ken Loach has slammed the Labour Party leadership. In a now-published letter, he takes aim at both Keir Starmer and the party's general secretary David Evans. It's over their actions towards his Constituency Labour Party (CLP). And Loach pulls no punches – slating their "ludicrous behaviour" and "conscious attempt to destroy" his CLP's leadership.
The situation in Bath: Loach intervenes
The letter is specifically about Bath CLP. As The Canary previously reported, the Labour Party machinery has subjected it to part of its ongoing purge of left-wing members:
In Bath, the party has put a stop to a meeting to elect new officials. It also barred all motions there, except one which (ironically) marked the death of George Orwell.
Bath is Loach's CLP. And his letter is damning.
You can read the full letter via Labour Briefing here. In it Loach outlines what the party machinery has inflicted on Bath CLP.
But it was Loach's broader points that were most caustic.
"Conscious" destruction
He accused the party machinery of 'consciously' trying to 'destroy' Bath CLP's leadership:
The centrists are still twisting the truth about the EHRC report. And people aren't having it.
Voter ID: An attack on democracy
In any competently managed organisation, this ludicrous behaviour would not have been allowed to continue. The inefficiency of the Labour Party is nothing new, it has regularly failed its members. but these actions suggest a conscious attempt to destroy a CLP leadership that was functioning well, carefully following rules, with a positive determination to attack the local Tory and Liberal establishment.
Loach said many members felt 'disillusioned' and 'cynical' about the party, adding:
The Labour Party is seen as a useless, self-serving clique, a waste of time for those who really want to make a difference.
Starmer and Evans: orders from the top
Also, he directly accused "the top" of the party of 'approving' the regional officer's actions. Loach said:
There is a clear determination to drive out anyone who showed support for [Jeremy] Corbyn and [John] McDonnell's programme of radical change.
He finished by saying:
The aim of the current leaders would seem to be to have a small, tightly disciplined party, with few troublesome activists, where policy is endorsed by a docile conference — standing ovations and little discussion. Leaders are then not accountable to members, but speak to the voters directly through a media that welcomes a Labour Party that will make no substantial changes to the established order.
Loach's points may well resonate with many Labour members across the country.
As The Canary has been documenting, CLP's accusing the Labour machinery of attempting to shut them down has become widespread. Up and down the country, the party has targeted left-wing members and committees. Moreover, some Corbyn-supporting members have been leaving the party.
So, Loach's final word perhaps reflected the despondency of a lot of members:
This may be your party, David Evans and Keir Starmer, it is not ours.
It's unlikely Loach's intervention will rattle the party's leadership. But what it does show is the deafening disquiet that now exists in Labour.

Jonno-2 says:
Painful though it is to read, Ken Loach is right, right and right again.
Throughout my life (a long time) he has been a champion of truth and justice.
His comments on Starmer's version of the Labour Party are spot-on …. "Useless, self-serving clique, a waste of time".
Ken is too kind – – The words "malevolent liars working to ensure that the Labour Party is colonised by the rich and powerful" are my description.

They want you to leave FFS
Return and vote
How about everyone of us recruits 3 new members then, guess what, when they finally have to face the music they will be wiped out, history
The internal report sets in stone the challenge we have to remove once and for all the Red Tories who prefer a cheap and nasty government to a Socialist Labour government
From now now on we should refer to them as 'Red Tories ' or 'The ersatz Tory party '
Return and vote …. I agree.
I'm still there, but I am surprised that I have not already been subject to ethnic cleansing.
Many good comrades are suspended for faying far lessd than I have said.
Yes – Vote them out – BUT – Don't think it will be easy.
Our party has been colonised by the rich and powerful.
Remove the red Tories !
NeworpK says:
Labour is run by tin pot amateurs who are a disgrace to the Labour movement in general, imo. Well done for speaking out, Ken Loach.
Auldkirsty says:
It's interesting that, in Scotland, there is now a Labour for Independence group. Largely, I suspect, because they see the current Labour party as no longer relevant but feel that, after Independence, a Labour party which is no longer dictated to by the WM party, could move back to being socialist rather than red Tory. Labour have been losing support since the days of Tony Blair and Starmer has put the tin lid on it. Local CLP's have suffered like Bath. In the Scottish Parliament elections, they, like the Tories depended on the list vote and joining with the Tories, to use tactical voting rather than the constituency vote. Not trying to insult anyone but some may not realise that Scotland does not use FPTP to elect MSPs and the list vote is the secondary form of voting. For example, the current Tory leader in Scotland had to depend on the list vote and Labour tactical voting to remain an MSP.
The Scots are a lot cannier than the English when it comes to political understanding.
They saw thru Bliar and that's what put the skids under Labour in Scotland.
As said – Starmer has finished Labour in Scotland.
He's doing his best to finish Labour as a serious party representing the interests of the many not the few.
Torie Haw Haw. says:

Revisiting 'Twin Peaks' 2×4: Secret Diary Proves Laura Palmer Created Blogging
Booooooooooooooring.
By Vinnie Mancuso and Drew Grant • 02/06/15 10:20am
If you feel left out of the whole Twin Peaks phenomenon, we're here to help! Every week, associate tvDownload editor Vinnie Mancuso attempts to figure out what the hell is going on in this town, while senior editor/Twin Peaks expert Drew Grant answers his questions. This week: 'Laura's Secret Diary.'
Booooooooooooooring. This episode of Twin Peaks was the first that was not good, not bad, not overly weird, not so weird it was good OR bad it was just…boring. And if you don't agree that 'Laura's Secret Diary' was simply a stall-fest with nothing going on, do you honestly believe we needed not one but two scenes completely devoted to Andy's sperm hijinks? I like a good semen joke as much as the next person but show some restraint, Twin Peaks.
I think the worst part of this episode was that for some reason Twin Peaks decided right here that it's large quirky cast of characters wasn't nearly large or quirky enough. A ton of new characters come in and start little stories of their own, while focus is renewed on characters I really, really don't care about in the first place. I'm looking at you, Josie Packard. I care about what Josie's up to as much as Josie cares about the well-being her sexy night garments. As evidenced by the super-long and uneventful scene between Josie and Harry Truman, she cares VERY LITTLE about the well-being of her sexy night garments.
Meanwhile, there's a whole bunch of mysterious Asian men wandering around Twin Peaks. One is named Mr. Tojamura, and we don't know anything about him. That's how mysterious he is. The other mysterious Asian man is so mysterious, we don't even know his name. We know his hobbies include beating the shit out of Hank Jennings and watching Josie and Harry Truman have sex.
"Aw, man…her sexy night garments."
Unless I'm mistaken, Judge Greenwood is another newbie to Twin Peaks. And unless I'm mistaken, crazy white haired Leland Palmer is going to jail for a long time after totally copping to the murder of Jaques Renault. And unless I'm mistaken, Judge Greenwood thinks he's a viking.
Harry Smith isn't exactly a new character, but it's time we talked about Harold Smith. What the fuck, Harry Smith? What's your deal? "I've read this from cover to cover, Donna, and there's no solutions here," Harry Smith says, after Donna suggests he give Laura's personal diary to the police. Are you kidding me, Harry Smith? What do you know about solutions? You're not a detective. You don't even leave your house! Ever! You're in possession of the private thoughts of a girl who was recently murdered. Give them to the police, you creepy bastard.
Speaking of creepy, that horticulturist motherfucker is creepy. Harry Smith to Donna: "People come to me and tell me their stories, about the world outside. I take their stories and place them into a larger context. A sort of living novel…friends, lovers. Maybe someday you will too." He's like one sentence away from being like "also I bind those living novels in human flesh."
But Donna is unperturbed. In fact, Donna's going rogue. Rogue Donna alert! She tells Maddy that she's going to get Laura's diary away from Harry's creepy, creepy possession whether James and Maddie like it or not. James, for his part, wasn't even in this episode. I assume he was busy recording James Hurley: The Hits.
A couple booths over from Maddy and Donna, Hank and Norma are trying to impress this dude they think is the world famous travel writer M.T Wentz, but this guy is actually an FBI agent named Daryl Lodwick? Honestly I was distracted this whole time by the fact that whoever Daryl Lodwick is, he looks like what it would look like if Yukon Cornelius was a real life person.
You know an episode of Twin Peaks is exhausting when my two favorite people on this show and in the world, Dale Cooper and Lucy Moran, share a scene and I don't even care about that. Cooper gives Lucy some relationship advice. There's a lot of relationship advice this episode. Lucy goes on to act all torn about stuff and decline some abortion money from Dick Tremayne (that's classic Dick, though). Cooper goes on to sort of get roped in to this whole Audrey mess. Ben Horne asks Coop to deliver Audrey's ransom money, so that Jean Renault can kill him or something. At least there's a shred of familiar concern somewhere in there from Ben towards his daughter. Haven't seen much of that besides the time he, uh, accidentally tried to have sex with her?
I think I have some questions.
Do you think Season One was such a huge hit because it had that central mystery "Who Killed Laura Palmer?" and it was episodes like this where that story became an afterthought in a lot of ways that turned people off so hard to season 2?
When people talk about season 2 going downhill….you haven't gotten there yet. Believe me, you'll know when that first season issue has been "resolved" as the central mystery. But to your point, Twin Peaks has already began to allow some of its cracks to show, mainly in the influx of "weirdo types" into the small community: this town has been through enough already! It didn't need a group of Riverboat Canadians doing a dinner theater interpretation of Taken (or Taken 2), or looming Asian henchmen that feel a touch stereotypical, or more "weird loners." For god sake, Twin Peaks. You're like Portlandia if things were terrible. (But I guess when they make Cooper mayor everything turned out alright!)
"Every day, allow yourself on treat!"
Twin Peaks is, after all, very inconsistent. We remember the really good parts–the ones that became instant signifiers both of this cultural moment in the 90s and what "Lynchian" supposedly meant. But then there's like, 45 minutes of bullshit per episode. Oh, Lucy is pregnant and she doesn't know the father bur has two eligible bachelors to choose from? Cool, cool…HAS ANYONE CHECK IN ON RONETTE PULUSKI IN A HOT SECOND? I feel like–god love'em Lucy and Andy's whole point on the show is to be renegade pieces of furniture from Pee-Wee Herman's Play House that have transmuted into human form and are getting into a lot of D-R-A-M-A. (Also the word of the day.) But at home they get to unwind, unzip and become their true forms again:
Am I supposed to feel bad for Harry Smith? Because Harry Smith gives me the heebie-jeebies.
What is wrong with a man who just likes his orchids ever so much, ever just so? No, Harold Smith is a creeper, and what I think I finally understood him to be was that even though he might have harbored a love for Laura, she was, in essence, "safe" with him…at least for a little while. (Until her eyes went black and blot out the sun and all became hell on earth.) Something about his agoraphobia and unwillingness to be "contaminated" by the world outside means he's outside of the range of most of the evil psychic forces of the town. That's why Laura chose to hide her secret secret diary there, where she knows it will be safe from BOB or any of his minions.
Also: Read The Secret Diary to Laura Palmer, written by Lynch's daughter Jennifer Lynch. It's such good additional reading for the show, and goes into a lot of detail about Harold and his relationship to Laura.
Dear Diary,
Harold Smith was my other delivery. As I think I told you, he's an interesting man. Very handsome. Apparently he was a botanist. For some reason he can't remember, he awoke one morning to find himself an agoraphobic. He believes death is just outside the door, and that late at night it calls to him from outside like a strange bird.
And then as things get darker:
I had been promising to spend a few moments with Harold for weeks now, and finally today I was able to do so.
His apartment is small and filled with books from the toilet tank to the top of the fridge. I think he has to keep reading these stories because he so rarely has any stories of his own.
I like, to play with Harold sometimes. I like the way he hangs on my every word as I describe some of my adventures. In particular those from One-Eyed Jack's (where by the way Jacques works as a blackjack dealer). My stories stimulate Harold. I know that. But yet he reacts almost violently, and with fear, when I make advances toward him, no matter how mild. I love Harold's tenderness and most often feel wonderful when I am with him and when I think about him. But sometimes I hate myself more than you can imagine for the aroused feelings I get when I see Harold's frightened face, which must be the same thing BOB sees when he looks at me. The prey, cornered . . . so degraded . . . made a toy. I am noticing that more and more, and I think BOB is, too, when he visits me, that I cannot hurt or be hurt enough lately.
Before Laura made a very un-Laura-like (or possibly completely Laura-like?? Who knows!) move:
I told him about how I had gone to Harold's last week, really fucked up and how scared I made him by coming on to him pretty heavy. And then, basically because he could not leave his house,forced him to have sex with me.
I told Dr. Jacoby that I cried for hours afterward because I felt so horrible. It took Harold almost an hour to talk to me because I had made him scared, even in his own home, his only refuge. And then I told Dr. Jacoby that half the time I hated it and the rest of the time it made me feel strong and hot between the legs.
Whoa. Sounds like Laura was the real stranger danger, there.
This is a small concern, but do we ever figure out what happened to Leland Palmer's hair? For some reason that's the mystery I am 100% most interested in so far.
Well only because you haven't see Frozen yet, dummy. In Leland's desire to deny his daughter's death, he's going with the "conceal, don't feel, don't let them know," Elsa credo, before finally "letting it go."
Jesus, a LOT of "Let it Go" in Leland's new fabulous song-and-dance persona. Check out the original lyrics and tell me they aren't preferable to his nonsense songs right now.
[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=moSFlvxnbgk&w=560&h=315]
It's funny how some distance
Makes everything seem small
And the fears that once controlled me
Can't get to me at all!
It's time to see what I can do
To test the limits and break through
No right, no wrong, no rules for me I'm free!
Let it go, let it go
And I'll rise like the break of dawn
That perfect girl is gone!
In the light of day
Let the storm rage on,
The cold never bothered me anyway

I created a magazine based on a already existing one for a school project.
As the first year of High-School is soon over, we got a final project. I took inspiration from a already existing norwegian magazine, Aftenposten K, to make my own ‹minimalistic magazine› (K uses a minimalistic design).
I took all the photos and wrote the tiny amount of text myself (not the placeholder text).
The logo (K) i got from the designer of the ‹original› magazine.
Please appreachiate my work if you like it and leave a comment if you have anything to say.

"This is beautiful." That was one of the first things I heard coming from the science control room this morning once the Global Explorer ROV made it to the base of Baker Bank. It was the first of many like comments to come, not to mention some wows, oohs, and ahs.
The scenes before us on the control room monitors were spectacular and even a bit mesmerizing at times. Even those who have done some exploring in this region were pleased. There were red, purple and orange sponges, white sea fans that, at roughly the size of a crouched human were large enough to surprise even the veterans, and countless other critters.
What we were seeing was all the more surreal because there are corkscrew-shaped sea whips, a type of coral, twirling several feet upward just about everywhere. So, as the ROV made its way up the side of the bank, the view seemed almost like something you might see in the screen adaptation of a fantasy tale. That's fitting, perhaps, for work from a ship named after a character in The Neverending Story, a German fantasy by Michael Ende.
The final count may have come in shy of the "zillions" of snappers that chief scientist Tom Shirley told us to expect, but certainly the red snappers in particular were plentiful. We passed many, and schools of them showed up above us on sonar, though beyond our view. There were also colorful tropical fish like wrasses and basslets, and a few species of red squirrel fishes with their almost comically huge eyes—more good candidates for a fairy tale scene.
At times it was unnatural specimens catching our eye. We wondered what a certain long straight stick might be until Wes Tunnel spotted the silt-covered fishing reel at the stick's far end. Another larger piece of unidentified human detritus we never did quite identify. It looked like an anchor at first, which sparked one of several jokes about possible shipwrecks and gold coins—not a complete impossibility in these waters.
On closer view it seemed like just an old piece of deck equipment. After some discussion Nathan Cunningham suggested we refer to it in the log as a "ship oddity," and all agreed. "You can tell Shakespeare came from my country," said the proudly British and more than a touch sarcasticFalkor marine technician.
All told, the researchers aboard could identify dozens of different animal species, and there were doubtless many more we missed. It's a shame a place like this would go unseen for so long. Hopefully the Gulf will be getting more attention in the coming years. For now, though, the team will be doing it's best to see and record as much of what's out here as possible.
Tomorrow, we'll be focusing on more mapping and collecting water samples using equipment lowered from the surface. Then Friday we'll launch the ROV again for close-up observations. We won't set the destination until tomorrow. It might be a place called Aransas Bank, or it could be Hospital Bank. That's good, because I wanted to shamelessly exploit that in today's sensationalized title. Either way, there are, undoubtedly, many more exclamations to come.

Q: How to use separate CMake targets for host application and any of the used libraries? When I'm using CMake and library which also uses CMake, I add the library directory in my CMake project to allow building the library alongside my project. For example:
 # add SFML library dependencies
 add_subdirectory("third_party/lib/SFML")
 include_directories("third_party/lib/SFML/include")
 target_link_libraries(${CMAKE_PROJECT_NAME} sfml-system sfml-window sfml-graphics)

Then CMake automatically matches project Debug builds to use library Debug build, and project Release builds to use library Release build. In some cases it is useful build targets to be controlled separately for the main project and every one of the libraries used by it. For example, if I'm not interested in debugging inside the library code I will want to build in Debug mode only my code and to link it against Release version of the library, because I don't want to sacrifice additional performance. In other cases maybe I want to debug only inside one of the used libraries, if I have suspicious for bug inside it, but again for performance reasons I want to link release versions for all other libraries. Is it possible and what is the best way to achieve this behavior?

A: With both imported targets and dependent targets from the same build tree, you will always get the behavior you described, that each configuration uses its own matching build of the library. Messing with this means fiddling with CMake's internals, so I'd advise against it.
If you want to link against a specific version of the library, the most robust way is to use find_library. Note that this will only work if the library dependency is already available in its binary form at configure time. That is, you can no longer build the dependency as part of the dependent project.
If that is not an option, consider using ExternalProject_Add to build the dependency and specify the location of the dependency binary manually.
All in all, your current approach is the most convenient one, so only change this if performance of the dependency's debug build is a real problem. Also note that while mixing debug and release builds is mostly fine for C libraries, it can easily break for C++ libraries, especially if you have standard library types on the interfaces.

Spatial turn
Spatial turn is an intellectual movement that places emphasis on place and space in social science and the humanities.[1] It is closely linked with quantitative studies of history, literature, cartography, and other studies of society. The movement has been influential in providing mass amounts of data for study of cultures, regions, and specific locations.[2]
Academics such as Ernst Cassirer and Lewis Mumford helped to define a sense of "community" and "commons" in their studies, forming the first part of a "spatial turn."[1] The turn developed more comprehensively in the later twentieth century in French academic theories, such as those of Michel Foucault.[1]
Technologies have also played an important role in "turns." The introduction of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) has also been instrumental in quantifying data in the humanities for study by its place.[2]

Hoptinger to open in Five Points
Roger Bull
Hoptinger Bier Garden and Sausage House is going to open in Five Points. The restaurant and bar, which opened in Jacksonville Beach in March, is going into the ground floor of Petersons 5 & Dime. Steve Williams bought the building at 1037 Park St. in March with the plan to put a restaurant downstairs.
Aaron Meisenheimer, marketing director and partner in Hoptinger, said the business will invest $1 million in the build-out.
The restaurant is run by ServStar Management Group which also manages the Shim Sham Room in Jacksonville Beach, Dos Gatos in downtown Jacksonville and Scarlett O'Hara's in St. Augustine.
Next month, Hoptinger is scheduled to open its second location, this one in St. Augustine, at 200 Anastasia Blvd. in a space last occupied by The Standard.
Although the restaurant describes itself as a modern bier garden, there's only a small patio at the Jacksonville Beach location, though St. Augustine will a much larger patio, Meisenheimer said.
The Five Points restaurant won't have any outside space, he said. And the menu will likely be adjusted for a larger lunch business.
"It might be a little more sophisticated at dinner," he said, "but it's still about dogs, burgers and cold beer."
The Beach location has 62 beers on tap, while St. Augustine has 86. He said he's not sure how many Five Points will have.
As for opening, Meisenheimer said he's hoping for December, but expecting spring.
Williams paid $820,000 for two-story building with a little more than 5,000 square feet on each floor. It was most recently Fuel Coffeehouse, but he renamed after the five and dime store that was there for years.
For the second floor, Williams said he's still undecided. But he's considering several options including a painting studio, event space or moving Florida Mining gallery there, which is currently in Williams' Harbinger sign company on Shad Road.

Provost-elect announced
by Kristina Livingston
Tue, Feb 27th 2018 09:00 pm
Brockport may now show off even stronger female leadership. Heyning, who will replace current provost James Haynes, has not begun her career at the college, but is already using social media and other resources in order to connect and learn about the environment of Brockport.
As of February 15, Katy Heyning has officially been announced as the successor to James Haynes as Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs. Although Heyning will not enter the new position until June 18, she has begun rigorous training for the role that Haynes filled since July 2016. According to Heyning, her career-long involvement in education initially attracted her to the possibility of filling the role.
"I have a deep commitment to enhancing the quality of public education that supports the liberal arts and professions," Heyning wrote in an email. "I know that The College at Brockport values innovation, collaboration and community building with a strategic vision for the future that match my own values."
Heyning will be transferring from the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, where she currently serves as Dean of the College of Education and Professional Studies, according to a February 15 press release by college Assistant Director of Communications John Follaco.
Per the press release, Henying has served as the chair of multiple committees at UW-Whitewater, including the Curriculum and Instruction Department, and has experience in forming international partnerships as well as teaching at the University of Arizona. Heyning also has experience in teaching elementary school curriculum, having taught in Highland Park, Illinois, and she has served as the President of the Wisconsin Teachers Association of Colleges of Teacher Education [2010-2012], while also conducting research on reform within higher education, as well as policy and postmodern theory in relation to changes within teacher education.
"[Heyning's] focus on community engagement matches Brockport's vision of building meaningful lives and vibrant communities, and I'm looking forward to seeing how she will continue to enhance our rich academic programs and work in partnership across divisions and schools," President Heidi Macpherson said.
Heyning described the candidacy process as lengthy and one of the hardest interviews she has engaged in throughout her career, but ultimately, she believes it has been helpful in getting her initial introduction to the campus community. She regrets not having time to meet more students during her sole visit to Brockport, and notes this as being a priority for her next arrival in April.
As Heyning is not familiar with the Brockport community or the college faculty, she is working to familiarize herself by following various campus Twitter feeds, as well as taking an hour or two each day to learn more about both factions of the Brockport community. Heyning is working with Haynes and Macpherson in order to get caught up on campus issues.
According to the press release, "Heyning received her BS in Elementary Education from Central Michigan University, her MEd in Educational Leadership from National Louis University, and her PhD from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in Curriculum and Instruction. She is married to Judi Trampf and enjoys riding her BMW motorcycle, sea kayaking and reading historical fiction."

Ryan Gravel (MCRP '99) conceived one of the most ambitious rail-to-trail projects in recent history with his Beltline thesis
External News Details
Publication: GBD Magazine
Article URL: http://gbdmagazine.com/2014/29-typology-atlanta-beltline/
Dateline: Wednesday September 10, 2014
Initially envisioned in 1999 as a transit solution for the notoriously auto-centric Atlanta, the BeltLine vision has kept growing ever since. City and Regional Planning student Ryan ravel (MCRP '99) wrote a master's thesis entitled, "Belt Line–Atlanta: Design of Infrastructure as a Reflection of Public Policy." Gravel challenged the city's reliance on the automobile and proposed to upend that norm by creating light-rail stations along historic freight lines to connect with bus routes and MARTA. Today, the sheer scope of the project is probably best comprehended in numbers: It includes four abandoned rail beds transformed into 22 miles of streetcar transit and bike and pedestrian paths. This greenway circles the urban core and connects 45 historic neighborhoods and more than 20 parks. To do it, 1,000 acres of brownfields will be remediated, and 3,000 acres of impervious surfaces will be broken up and given back to native plants. The result is more than 1,300 acres of green space, increasing the city's parkland by 40 percent.

Blood & Chrome Demoted, Sci-Fi Still Doomed
Somehow I'd missed this unofficial teaser trailer for the BSG prequel "Blood & Chrome". It looks fantastic in most places (with slightly dodgy CGI sets in only a handful), although there's no way to gauge the quality of the plot, acting or writing at this stage.
The bad news, though, is that SyFy — who had upgraded the project from a 10-part webseries — has given up on it as a regular series and downgraded it back to its original format. I never saw the point in these 10-minute-per-episode "webisode" series, so this is incredibly disappointing.
However, it's hardly a surprise.
Sci-fi television has taken a complete battering on US TV over the last half-decade or so, with a myriad of high-quality shows — some bordering on staggeringly epic — left to rot in the annals of history because of "the way things are".
The way things are? How are things?
Things are that even if Joe "Sci-fi Fan" Bloggs watched his favourite shows religiously on his telly instead of downloading them online — often cited as a key factor in the lack of sci-fi TV success — it wouldn't make the blindest bit of difference… unless he's one of the 0.02% of US viewers with a Nielsen box.
The entire ratings system is a complete sham, yet it drives advertising and consequently series success. Which is… frustrating. Firefly & SGU in particular were staggeringly amazing, but this is not represented in these meaningless "viewing figures", so they get cut off. The network then develops the notion that Sci-Fi, which is expensive to produce, isn't going to make them any money in return (which, due to ratings driving advertising, is true) .. and suddenly nothing gets a decent run. Enterprise, Caprica, SG-1/SGA movies, now B&C not given the ground to grow and succeed because if the epic shows can't make it, then what chance do these good/potential shows have?
What we need is to take the Nielsen boxes away from the morons who watch "American Idol" and give them to people who watch actual TV. It's the only way. Otherwise the rest of us are simply doomed, with no chance of coming back from this TV abyss that intelligent or artistic people have fallen into. It breaks my heart but there it is.
When I win £140million in the EuroMillions I'll fund SGU and B&C myself. Must be able to get a couple of episodes out of that, right…?

Time to put my TOSA hat on. As 2018 is fast approaching, it is time to think about launching the 2018 Winter Tube Olympics.
The TOC (Tube Olympics Committee) has concluded that London (UK) will be the host city for the 2018 event.
The 2018 Winter Olympics will have the same events included as per the previous games in 2014, these are Biathlon, Mouse, Tramlink, Nordic Combined, Random 15 and Full Network. All events marked as "evening" will commence between 18:00 and 18:30 local time.
Please note, event 6, the Random 15 will also double up as round 4 of the current 2017/18 Random 15 season. So as well as medals for the Olympic aspect, normal Random 15 Challenge scoring will also be applied and will count for the Random 15 league table.
Full details of each event will be posted individually nearer the time.
Don't be silly, everyone knows there is no Olympics in 2019!
May I ask what these are?
Nordic Combined is a lot of fun! Biathlon I find less my cup of tea.
Unfortunately, rather as I feared, Winter TO straddles my annual Model Railway Exhibition on 17th Feb. Thus it immediately rules out 10th Feb (the day I go round the shops putting the posters up) and 16th (preparation day and very early start the following day). 20th is also unlikely as my parents (who do the catering for the exhibition) may still be over visiting, though I do like the sound of NC and have a route worked out, conveniently starting at Paddington.
Hopefully though I should be able to make the Mouse and the R15.
when u say evening aka Tuesday what times are you referring too?
Please note, event 6, the Random 15 will also double up as round 4 of the current 2017/18 Random 15 season.
Should this not be Round 3, or have I missed something here?


1. Take the Stove Fan from the packaging carefully,be sure to position the stove fan on a smooth flat surface of your stove top,the optimum area is near the side or back of the stove where cool air will be drawn from behind and over the cooling fins.Direct placement in front of the stove pipe or at the front of the stove is not effective way to use the stove fan.
2. The top section of the fan can not be touching any hot surface.
3.The stove fan is designed for use on freestanding stoves with surface temperatures between 50ºC-350ºC (122ºF-662ºF),the optimum operating temperature range is 80ºC-250ºC (176ºF-482ºF).
4. At the base of fan,there is a Bi-Metallic strip which is a safety device to protect the motor overheating when the stove top temperature exceeds 250ºC (482ºF).
5.The fan can be worked on all stoves when the stove top surface temperature lower than 350ºC(662ºF),if exceeding this range may cause damage to the components. We suggest use a stove thermometer at the same time.
6.The stove top fan start to work automatically when the stove top temperature up to 50ºC(122ºF),and turn more and more faster when temperature increased.It will slow down and stop gradually if the fuel burned out and the stove fan cooling down.
The above are some use guide for our heat powered stove fan model N429,we also have other models which almost can refer to this instruction.For more details, please feel free to contact our customer service.
