It looks like Microsoft has abandoned its efforts to digitize the worlds books. I must admit that I'm not clear why this decision was made, especially given that Microsoft is used to bleeding money for long periods of time to get what it wants. I suspect this is a combination of a a couple of issues, including: little traffic on the Book Search site; little interest in the Academic Search product, as most academics would use Library licenses; pressure from publishers to cease in-copyright digitization. No doubt the 2nd one has more of an impact given Microsoft's reliance on IP for their own product base. Since they have decided to leave scanning equipment with their partners we can only hope that the effort will continue at the local level, as well as with the Google Books partners.
I still can't get over the fact that a sitting government in a country like Canada can operate in such secrecy. Here is the message I forwarded to the PM, Minister and my MP. The boingboing link above has the info you need to do the same, so please take 5 minutes out of your day to ensure we maintain a fair and balanced copyright framework!
Prime Minister, I am writing to express my concern that the Canadian government will again attempt to pass new copyright legislation which is clearly against the wishes of Canadian citizens and creators. I am also concerned that repeated signals that Canadians are interested and concerned about their fundamental rights in this context are being ignored by the government of the day, particularly as evidenced by the desire to pass this flawed legislation without any public consultation.
I hope that you will ensure that Canadians truly have a say in their ability to educate themselves and that we maintain a balance between the rights of the public and creators by postponing this pending legislation, allowing those who may choose to re-elect you to have as strong a voice as the media lobbyists in Ottawa. Canadians expect good government, not secret government - we also expect our government to respect the citizens of this country and the democratic processes we have in place to ensure a fair and balanced society.

Is Your Daily Life Enslaved by the Electronic World?
As UPEI develops support for bioscience data in our VRE project, we have delved into the rather daunting world of bioscience XML schemas and related tools. This article is a good intro (although a bit out of date) and a useful start if you are looking to build data repositories in this area.
Drupal to Be/Support Semantic Datastores?
It's still not entirely clear to me how this new Drupal module will position Drupal in the emerging Semantic Web landscape, but from what I can gather it would allow Drupal to act as an RDF-smart semantic datastore as well as to integrate with external repositories, such as Fedora. I also understand that Drupal will take the Semantic Web functionality to a new level. Good stuff all and another reason to keep your eye on Drupal and Fedora. Arto's subsequent posting on this issue is well worth reading and highlights a number of reasons why UPEI is working with Drupal and Fedora - the future is semantic!


Home decoration is no easy task, especially when you have so many options to choose from. And if you're as hopeless with picking the right details as most of us are, the task of finding the right window blinds can become near impossible.
Not to worry though; to help you with this decision, we bring to you some basic tips to pick the right window blinds that will work perfectly with your home décor.
Before we dive into this subject, you may be wondering why you should be choosing blinds instead of the classic choice of window curtains.
Unlike your heavy-duty curtains, window blinds are very easy to adjust, and can provide just the right amount of light through their tilt function. Blinds can be stacked up or pulled to the side, giving you an unobstructed view. And to top it off, blinds are also a lot more affordable and easy to maintain. On the other hand, you may need to spend a hefty amount on having your curtains laundered. All you will need to clean your blinds is a soft wet cloth and a light touch.
Each room requires a different style of window blinds. For instance, blinds in a bathroom demand privacy and need to be resistant to moisture; whereas bedrooms and children's rooms can use blackout blinds for proper safety and comfort.
The aesthetic appeal of your room will obviously play into the selection of your window blinds. Vertical blinds with simple patterns offer a rich feel to the overall ambiance. However, you can also bring a plantation or western-style theme by using horizontal wood blinds. Although expensive, you can opt for faux wood slats or standard aluminum blinds, which are available in a variety of colors.
Now, if you check the selection available at well-known sources, you will usually find a variety available. Items such as roller blinds, blackout blinds, roman blinds, Venetian blinds, shutters, thermal blackout roller blinds and many more can be easily bought. But to make this decision, you must first determine the cost of the material that will be used in production. Remember, blinds require proper measurement.
It's not so difficult to measure your windows for blinds. Along with measuring the height and width, you must also note the window depth if you're choosing to have blinds in a casement window.
The rule of thumb for blinds is that they should completely cover the window and have at least 2 inches more cover on all sides.
Once you have figured out these details, buy the products you want at Perfecto Blinds.
In addition to all the above styles, the store also offers a range of replacement vertical blinds and other accessories. So go ahead and visit them today!

Old School Embraces Night School
09 August, 2011 3:18 PM
Call me old school, but I am among those who believe that the best way to create racing fans is through an on-track visit with friends or family to one of the many beautiful racetracks located throughout North America. To me, an on-track visit is the best way to soak in all of the positive attributes of horse racing—a unique combination of sports, gambling and entertainment, with the stars of the show some of the most beautiful and graceful animals in the world.
My views on fan education and development are beginning to change, however, now that I've seen data from the first half year of Night School—the first industry-wide, Web-based attempt to teach handicapping, Like everything else, or so it seems, the Internet and social media platforms are changing the way we engage with existing and target racing fans.
Night School is the brainchild of Horseplayernow.com co-owners Jeremy Plonk and Joe Kristufek. The 90-minute sessions, which air each Monday at 8:30 p.m. ET (they are also available on archive), are sponsored by the NTRA, AQHA, Keeneland and Daily Racing Form. Night School can be accessed on more than 20 industry Web sites, including NTRA.com.
Each week's Night School class focuses on a different topic. How to approach a day at the races, trainer intent, pick six strategies and ownership are just four of the areas covered to date. Typically, Night School sessions are broken into pods that include a 30-minute panel discussion among the weekly guest analysts, a 30-minute question-and-answer session during which racing fans worldwide can ask the experts about the evening's subject matter, and a 30-minute "Jump Ball" segment where fans can discuss anything in the world of racing. Through 20 of the 40 Night School sessions, the results are impressive:
- Total attendees (live and through taped archives): 40,405 (2,020 per session)
- Live attendees: 22,830 (1,142 per session)
- Reader submitted comments/questions: 10,703 (535 per session)
- Video uploads: 180,000-estimated, including 42,010 on YouTube
Live guests have included Hall of Famers Jerry Bailey and Gary Stevens; Kentucky Derby winning trainer Graham Motion, DRF publisher Steven Crist, TV analysts and handicappers Randy Moss, Donna Barton Brothers, Jay Privman, Andy Serling, Jill Byrne, and a slew of other nationally recognized handicappers and industry participants.
Participating fans are equally diverse, hailing from 49 of the 50 states (all but Alaska), Canada and South America. Slightly more than one-third of registrants consider themselves to be long time fans. One-quarter are weekend horseplayers. Another 23% consider themselves to be newcomers or someone who is gaining interest in the sport and in handicapping.
As for the age of participants, 28% are 50-59, 24% are 60-plus, 23% are 40-49, 13% are 30-39, and 9% are 20-29. Clearly, Night School appeals to a broad cross-section of fans and potential fans.
Through the internet and social media, Night School has connected a broad cross section of racing fans in ways not possible only a few years ago. I still consider myself to be 'Old School' when I think about new fan development, but there can be no denying the reach and potential of programs like Night School. And using this year's Preakness as a barometer, perhaps the 'Old School' approach and Night School approach can co-exist quite nicely. The Night School patrol, consisting of six members of the Horseplayernow.com team, set up camp in the midst of the mass of humanity that is the Preakness infield. Thousands of casual fans, including Kegasus, made their way through the Wagering 101 tent during the day. The result: Preakness infield mutuel handle rose nearly 11% from the 2010 figures.
Check out Night School and let me know your thoughts.

Q: Nuget and Team Foundation Source Control I have various Nuget packages installed to my solution. Some in my domain project and some in my MVC Front End project.
This all works quite happily. However if you get the project new from source control I can see I have all the packages in the packages folder. However they all appear to have an exclamation after them in References for the projects.
If I use nuget command nuget install .\ProjectFolder\Packages.config it seems to install the pacakges again but the refrences still don't appear. I have to manually install them using nuget manage references and install them individually. Which is a bit of a hassle for new developers starting projects.
Seems a bit odd? Is something wrong or is this normal? Shouldn't Nuget/VS2010 know that all packages exist and be happy as the packages are all in the local file system from source control (I know there is a debate about keeping them there but lets leave that aside)
Thanks
Graeme

A: Updated June 28, 2014
You might consider a reinstall of your packages. See this thread: How do I get NuGet to install/update all the packages in the packages.config?
Leaving the outdated answer below for history, but note that the MSBuild-based package restore is currently considered a bad practice (more info: http://www.xavierdecoster.com/migrate-away-from-msbuild-based-nuget-package-restore)
Outdated answer below:
Not a direct answer to your question, but maybe a valuable suggestion when using NuGet with TFS.
You might consider the no-commit strategy for NuGet packages, and use the NuGetPowerTools Enable-PackageRestore command.
More info here:

*http://www.xavierdecoster.com/post/2011/10/17/tell-tfs-not-to-add-nuget-packages-to-source-control-aspx

A: Install NuGetPowerTools package and then Enable-PackageRestore from the Package Manager Console.  That should fix it.
This is the short version of @Xavier response :).

A: I'm guessing it isn't normal. I removed the entire packages folder. Re-added all packages to my solution and then committed all the changes.
It now it seems to work if I re-get the site from source control. Maybe something was corrupted. The project was originally started before I was using source control and nuget. Maybe some sort of initial setup issue.
Thanks

Our teaching strives to equip pupils to ask perceptive questions, think critically, weigh evidence, sift arguments, and develop perspective and judgement. History helps pupils to understand the complexity of people's lives, the process of change, the diversity of societies and relationships between different groups, as well as their own identity and the challenges of their time.
Pupils develop an awareness of the past, using common words and phrases relating to the passing of time. They learn where the people and events they study fit within a chronological framework and identify similarities and differences between ways of life in different periods. They begin to use a wide vocabulary of everyday historical terms.
They should ask and answer questions, choosing and using parts of stories and other sources to show that they know and understand key features of events. They learn to understand some of the ways in which we find out about the past and identify different ways in which it is represented.
Pupils continue to develop a chronologically secure knowledge and understanding of British, local and world history, establishing clear narratives within and across the periods they study.
They are taught to note connections, contrasts and trends over time and develop the appropriate use of historical terms. They regularly address and sometimes devise historically valid questions about change, cause, similarity and difference, and significance. They are required to construct informed responses that involve thoughtful selection and organisation of relevant historical information. They come to understand how our knowledge of the past is constructed from a range of sources and that different versions of past events may exist, giving some reasons for this.
In planning to ensure the progression described above through teaching the British, local and world history outlined below, teachers combine overview and depth studies to help pupils understand both the long arc of development and the complexity of specific aspects of the content.

Jair Bolsonaro could be deported if the US decides he's causing 'adverse foreign policy consequences'
Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro is cheered while departing after he rode a motorcycle along with other bikers in Orlando, Florida on June 11, 2022.
GREGG NEWTON/AFP via Getty Images
Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro came to Florida late last year on a visa.
After his supporters staged an insurrection, there are calls to send him back home.
To deport him, the Secretary of State could rule that Bolsonaro is harming US foreign policy.
Jair Bolsonaro was thousands of miles away when a mob of his supporters ransacked Brazil's capital over the weekend, but the lie that he and his allies told — that the far-right former president actually won an election that he lost — was what lit the fire of insurrection. Already there are calls for him to return home, willingly or not.
Late last year, Bolsonaro, while still Brazil's head of state, came to Florida, with people spotting him everywhere from fast-food joints to grocery stores. He is now in a hospital outside Orlando where, according to his wife, he is receiving treatment for abdominal pain.
As Brazil's president, Bolsonaro, a close ally of former President Donald Trump, enjoyed something his fellow Brazilians do not: easy access to the United States, courtesy of the type of visa awarded to diplomats and other foreign government officials. And even now that he is a private citizen, Bolsonaro enjoys legal rights that could long delay any forcible return to Brazil, should it come to that.
At a press briefing on Monday, Ned Price, a spokesperson for the US State Department, declined to comment on whether Bolsonaro used such a visa to enter the country. But he said that it is "incumbent" on any individual on a diplomatic visa — but no longer working for their government — to either leave the country or "request a change to another immigration status within 30 days" of their employment changing.
Bolsonaro arrived in Florida on December 30. His left-wing successor, Lula Inácio da Silva, was sworn in on January 1.
It is also possible that Bolsonaro arrived on a tourist visa. Regardless, should he wish to remain in the US, Brazil's ex-leader will have the ability to legally challenge any effort to remove him, a process that could push back his return to Brazil for months, if not longer.
If Brazil files charges against him for any alleged role in the January 8 riots, Bolsonaro will also have the right to fight a separate legal battle against extradition.
'Reasonable grounds' to deport Bolsonaro
There is a potential, if little-used, alternative. Under federal law, Bolsonaro could be deported if the Secretary of State has "reasonable grounds" to believe that his presence in the country "would have potentially serious adverse foreign policy consequences for the United States."
Under that provision, Bolsonaro could be deported whether or not he has even been charged with a crime.
In 1995, then-Secretary of State Warren Christopher reached such a conclusion with respect to a former Mexican prosecutor, Ruiz Massieu, who had been charged in his home country with obstructing an investigation into the assassination of his brother, a prominent politician. The same day that a US judge denied Mexico's extradition request, Massieu was taken into custody by immigration officials, armed with a letter from the Secretary of State declaring him a nuisance to US foreign policy who should be deported, The Los Angeles Times reported.
But there were complications. US law granted Massieu the right to challenge that deportation, too. Four months later, US District Judge Maryanne Trump Barry, the sister of former President Donald Trump, ruled that the federal government had no right to deport someone solely on the determination of the US Secretary of State, provided that they had in fact entered the country legally and obeyed its laws.
"The issue is whether an alien in this country legally can, merely because he is here, have his liberty restrained and forcibly be removed to a specific country in the unfettered discretion of the Secretary of State and without any meaningful opportunity to be heard," Barry wrote in her decision. "The answer is a ringing, 'No!'"
The US Department of Justice pushed back on that conclusion. Its s Board of Immigration Appeals — whose decisions are the final say on questions before immigration judges — subsequently ruled that no court has the right to question a Secretary of State's determination that a person is a threat to the country's foreign policy.
Ultimately, though, the US never deported Massieu. Instead, in 1999, US prosecutors charged him themselves, accusing him of laundering millions of dollars he received from drug cartels. He died by suicide a month later.

Ever wanted to fight fires? Well, the Valley's volunteer fire departments want you!
That's the message from region's three volunteer fire halls, who've coordinated their efforts this year in an attempt to reach a wider audience.
"We're trying something different with all three departments trying to do a recruitment drive at once," Sproat Lake fire Chief Wade Hepp said. At 38 volunteer firefighters, Sproat Lake is the biggest of the Valley's three volunteer fire halls.
"We're always looking for extra hands," added Cherry Creek fire Chief Mike Sparrow.
While with 24 firefighters the Cherry Creek volunteer fire department isn't short on hands, Sparrow said that the nature of volunteer firefighting makes for a high turnover rate.
At 34 firefighters, the Beaver Creek volunteer fire department is "at a pretty good number right now," fire Chief Charlie Starratt said, but added that he'd like to see that number increase to 40.
The commitment for a volunteer firefighter is designed to fit around a standard work schedule.
There's two hours of training every Tuesday night from 7-9 p.m., with more sessions on weekends as time permits and of course, responding to calls.
While the time commitment can be significant, there's a lot to be gained by joining up.
"All of our members are trained as first responders and in general firefighting duties. We do it all." Starratt said.
Doing it all ranges from learning about fire behaviour and building construction, to how to use ropes and ladders and perform evacuations and hazmat operations.
"All the training and equipment is all taken care of," Hepp said.
"We have no prior requirements, just that they're fit to do the job," Starratt said.
The experience gained at volunteer fire departments can be especially useful for those looking at a career in the emergency services.
"We have four or five past members working for the city [fire department] right now. It's a good stepping stone into the career service," Starratt. said.
Career firefighting isn't the only area Starratt has seen his past volunteers go into.
While it's preferable for prospective volunteers to join the fire department in their area, city residents are welcome to join any of the three departments.
Anyone interested in becoming a volunteer firefighter can visit the fire departments' respective Facebook pages or call the Beaver Creek Fire Department at 250-723- 2313, the Cherry Creek Fire Department at 250-723-2254 or the Sproat Lake Fire Department at 250-735-0588.

Kingdomland by Rachael Allen review — what a start to a poetic career
The surreal and fiery debut from a striking new voice
Review by Jeremy Noel-Tod
Precise surprise: Rachael AllenDANIELA SILVA
The Sunday Times, March 17 2019, 12:01am
British poetry is growing dark and it's the young poets who are turning out the lights. Rachael Allen's first collection, Kingdomland, brilliantly conjures up a black-hearted country, where visitors are greeted by "the poor library and the wicker-man" in villages where "the vinegar wind assaults".
Don't be fooled by this book's bright orange jacket: it's not cheerful, it's on fire. On the first page, a forest burns "with granular heat"; on the last, "the sea flames". On both, an unnamed "girl" floats between life and death. Kingdomland is a place of menace and violence, especially against women. But it's not the tough-guy noir favoured by certain male poets. Allen, who is poetry editor at Granta magazine, belongs to a generation of younger poets whose work…

Q: How can i add more function i want to click on any image and go anything i want.
Example: i click on item 3 then, then there is a big image display in the screen.
Please kindly help me to add more code about this, thanks.

A: You can use a View.onClickListener to do that:
final View.OnClickListener listener = new View.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(View v)  {
         ... add your code here...
    }
};

imageView.setOnClickListener(listener);

We're featuring a styled shoot today that gives you a good example of how you can craft a bridal ensemble that matches your destination wedding. If you have never heard of styled shoots, they're popular in the wedding industry. They provide inspiration for brides, and it also allows vendors to flex their creative muscles and stay fresh.
Last week, we toured The Barefoot Bride in Memphis to learn about the experience of shopping for a dress. Even if you know what to expect, walking into a shop full of gorgeous gowns can still be overwhelming. Remember that post when we discussed Things to Do When You Get Engaged? The final item was to choose your date and venue- not your dress! If you have chosen a time of year, time of day, and venue- that immediately whittles your choices down to a manageable sum! For instance, you wouldn't wear a backless, chiffon sheath for a mid-winter affair in Aspen because you'd freeze. Likewise, you don't want a long train of duchess satin dragging through the dirt at a garden wedding.
The goal for this project was to create a wedding day look for mermaid (and beach) lovers. Rose Red Bridal Designs provided a dreamy, blue dress that floated like a whisper… it was so perfect! I love the shoulder skimming swags, multi-layered skirt, and the lace-up corset. Our model's gorgeous hair was kept loose, and alluringly wild- just right for romantic, beach vibes! Anytime you can reflect your wedding day environment, you are making a cohesive style choice.
Choose fabrics and styles that mirror your wedding day environment (just as we chose blue, ethereal chiffon that reflected the ocean).
Choose practical dress features (notice shied away from trains, heavy fabrics, and stiff hairstyles that can't withstand the damp breeze).
Take your cue from nature. God is the great designer and His creation comes jam-packed with inspiration! Take not of what color combinations, textures, and shapes exist in your wedding's ecosystem. If you can incorporate bits of nature into your look then you are making a solid design choice! (for example, notice the blue, layered skirt, and flowing fabric compliment the waves and water colors).

Q: Python Flask Apache wsgi Not Wrking EDIT-1 - I was having import issues running the app with mod_wsgi and the command line, but I have resolved those. I still can't get the mod_wsgi part to work, as detailed below.
EDIT-2 Now the mod_wsgi is loading the login page, but the sqlite db is complaining. And one import either works for mod_wsgi, or the command line invocation, depending on how it is written.
EDIT-3 Fixed the sqlite error. Needed to have the full path to the db file in the factory. I still have the import issue as described below.
I have a flask application (my first) in a rocket_launcher_flask/rocket_launcher and I can't seem to get the both the command line invocation and the wsgi connection to work with the same code base. The errors occur in two places.
In the factory function in __init__.py I have this import:
#from . import rocket_launcher   # works for command line launch
import rocket_launcher           # works for wsgi
app.register_blueprint(rocket_launcher.bp)

If I just use the import rocket_launcher and run from the command line, I get this error:
  File "/home/mark/python-projects/rocket_launcher_flask/rocket_launcher/__init__.py", line 67, in create_app
    app.register_blueprint(rocket_launcher.bp)
AttributeError: module 'rocket_launcher' has no attribute 'bp'

But, if you look at the rocket_launcher.py file, bp is defined at the top of the file (complete file shown below):
from flask import (
    Blueprint, flash, g, redirect, render_template, request, session, url_for, make_response

If I run the app using wsgi, the app works as expected.
However, if I change the import to
from . import rocket_launcher   # works for command line launch
#import rocket_launcher           # works for wsgi
app.register_blueprint(rocket_launcher.bp)

and run from the command line, there are no errors and the app works as designed with no other code changes.
However, running the app using this import and using wsgi yields this error:

Thanks for any suggestions you may have to fix my import problems!

A: I am not sure this is the answer, but it is a workable solution.
I changed the name of the the file rocket_launcher.py to controller.py and changed the appropriate references to rocket_launcher in the code to controller.
I then changed the import in __init__.py to `import controller'.
And voila, it works for both wsgi and command line invocations!
I guess there were too many rocket_launcher references that pointed to different things, and python got confused?? A much more knowledgeable Pythonista will have to answer that question.

The above images are from my mother's own collection of photographs. They show her, Janie Alston, at work in the life room, on a specific piece for her Post-Diploma show and 'The Sisters'.
After many conversations with my mother about her time at art school I was very excited to come across an early film made by Scottish filmmaker, Eddie McConnell, in the Scottish Screen Archive, entitled 'The Glasgow School of Art', 1957. In the blurb on the Scottish Screen Archive website I saw, to my amazement, 'works by the student Janie Alston [two girls heads together], Stone carving - works by Alan Fletcher and shots of the works exhibited at the degree show'. It turns out to be footage of my mother's post-diploma show at GSA. Although the short film, 15/17 minutes in length, is without sound, it has brought to life my mothers words and provided food for thought.
This Easter my mother and I also made a visit to the Glasgow School of Art Archives and Collections department, spending time looking at the records for the period and talking with the very knowledgeable and informative staff.
McConnell's film displays artful shots of the iconic Mackintosh designed Glasgow School of Art building; views of the corridors, the main stairwell in the Macintosh building, the library and the 'Hen Run'. Interspersed with these views are close ups of the plaster casts of famous sculptures, like Michelangelo's portrait of Lorenzo De Medici (from the tomb of Guiliano de Medici), and a bust of Voltaire (Houdon). I think that McConnell 'tips his hat' at the founding principles of the art school establishment, the 17th École des Beaux-Arts in Paris,that provided the blueprint for the organization and teaching of art across Europe. A hierarchy of 'Art' was taught, with importance laid on the study of Classical and Renaissance masters, working first from classical casts students progressed to study from life, emphasis was placed on the pursuit of realism and the supremacy of the human form.
My mother still remembers drawing and sculpting from casts as preparation for life drawing, including the nose, ears, and eye of David, by Michelangelo! Her drawing tutor, in the first two years of the general course, William Bone, taught what can only be described as the 'traditional' and 'academic' foundations of Art. There was no drawing from life until the second year. Looking at exemplars from the History of Art, drawings by Slade luminaries like Randolph Schwabe (Painting tutor and later Director of GSA, Jefferson Barnes was married to Schwabe's daughter), examples by ex-students work, pupils were encouraged to get to grips with 'composition', draw 'form', use 'tone', 'texture', consider 'proportions' and understand the system of 'perspective'. For example, she sites looking at the work of Whistler and discussing how he filled the space, stressing that the negative space was as important as the positive. Tone, she tells me, was taught as being important in unifying a composition and examples by Renoir and Degas were discussed with regards to composition, drawing and colour. In the first year students had to complete a monthly composition. William Bone, she enthused to me, was an exceptional tutor who could 'bring even the poorest of students on'.
The Glasgow School of Art must surely have been an electrifying experience for a very young student (she was only 16 at the time she began), who came from Kirkintilloch, a small town on the outskirts of Glasgow. She and her brothers were the first of their family to attend Higher Education. Glasgow had been an industrial powerhouse in the 19th century and was still an important city of commerce and manufacture in post-war Britain, particularly with the ship building on the Clyde. The city was a smoggy, gritty, industrial place as illustrated in photographs like 'The Gorbals Boys'. Various industrialists and academics had become important philanthropists who had bequeathed substantial art collections to Glasgow at one time or another, e.g. William Burrell and Dr. William Hunter. For the general population of Glasgow, post-war, trips to the Kelvingrove Gallery would have given them access to culture, but Art as a career path or avenue of study was still a novelty. For my mother and her brother, Gavin Alston, the interior world and teaching of Glasgow School of Art must have seemed distinctly new, fresh and perhaps rarefied.
In McConnell's film different departments are featured. The Sculpture and Drawing and Painting Departments are represented by work (including that of my mothers) that appears very traditional, unsurprisingly. The students in the Painting department are shown painting a figure from life, in an arranged set up. Although not shown in colour, the brushwork and style owes more to the Camden Town group of the early 20th century than the more forward thinking movements of mid century Britain. However, this trait would seem to be as a result of ex-Slade students who were tutors at GSA including Jefferson Barnes and Geoff Squires and, I suggest, the continuing tradition of the Glasgow Boys. All these artists were inspired by Impressionist and Post-Impressionist philosophies.
In the sculpture studio one student is shown 'applying clay' to a sculptural group of two horses, another student is working on a sculpture of a man swinging a child into the air, modelled in plaster, it pays lip service to Giacometti. A double portrait, in terracotta, of two girls, and a figurative composition, in terracotta, of two women and a child are representative of my mother's post-diploma show. The work of Alan Fletcher (my mother's contemporary) strikes a more contemporaneous feel, again the inspiration of Giacometti/Brancusi is evident.
Benno Schotz, the Head of the Sculpture faculty, was an Estonian émigré, who was inspired by the work of another émigré, Jacob Epstein. While traditional in subject matter, Schotz's work does exhibit 'expressionist' tendencies and reminds me of a sculptural equivalent to the work of Oscar Kokoschka. My mother talks of 'applying clay to find the form' in comparison to what she perceived as the Edinburgh tradition of 'taking away'. She recalled an episode when some students from Edinburgh accompanied by the Head of Sculpture, Eric Schilsky, came to visit their Glasgow counterparts. 'Benno told everyone in the sculpture studio to artfully place sculptures and 'terracottas' around, but to 'tell them nothing", i.e. don't give away secrets to the enemy!
In the prospectus from 1951 the conditions for the diploma course in Sculpture are given as the following, 'The work submitted by applicants for a Diploma in Sculpture must include studies from Life cast in plaster, a figure composition, the diploma group, Drawings from Life, an example of carving in stone or wood, and a thesis.'
In contrast to Fine Art, the work exhibited in the Design departments reveals a more progressive/contemporary feel. Perhaps with Robert Stewart as Head of the Printed Textiles, who is now recognized as an influential Post-war designer, working for Liberties and Heals at the time, there was greater communication with the Post-war design trends in Britain – 'his finger was on the pulse'. Kathleen Whyte, in Textiles, was also an important and modernizing figure. The influence of Sadie McLellan, wife of Head of Murals, Walter Prichard, in the Mural Design and Stained Glass department can be witnessed in a fleeting glimpse of a Chagall-like/Medieval figurative stained glass.
Looking through the prospectuses from The Glasgow School of Art from the years 1950 – 1957, it was interesting to note that in the early 50s Printed Textiles, Industrial Design, Mural Design etc. were all grouped together under Design and Crafts, but by the mid 50s each of the Design categories are given their own independent category. Witnessing the rise of applied Art and waning of Fine Art.
Finally the social life of the art school is depicted in the film, showing students, friends of my mother, Una Walsh and Valerie Wilson singing with a band on the front steps of the School of Art. A fancy dress party is shown in full swing, revelers dancing madly, and in full technicolour. It reminds us that, then as now, part of being an art student is the fun you have with your like-minded peers, listening to music, dancing, talking, exchanging ideas and 'the world is new'.
My thanks to Peter Trowles and his team at the Archives and Collections department at Glasgow School of Art for their time and help with our enquiries.

Italy/
Carro Armato/Semovente
Produced by Fiat Ansaldo, the M13/40 was the main battle tank of the Italian army in World War II and served throughout the war following its introduction in 1940. Although designated as a medium tank it was more in line with the light tanks of other nations at the time.
With armour up to 42 mm thick, and armed with a 47 mm main gun backed up by up to four 8 mm machine guns, it carried a four-man crew. Its diesel engine, whilst underpowered, giving a top speed of around 20mph, was less vulnerable to catching fire and had better range than petrol-fuelled vehicles.
The most widely produced Italian tank of the war, the M13/40 battled on in the Western Desert and Italy despite Allied tanks far eclipsing it in firepower, speed and protection.
This superb plastic kit can alternatively be assembled as a Semovente tank. The Semovente 75/18 self-propelled gun brings some much needed armoured reinforcements to Italian forces.
The Semovente was an Italian self-propelled gun, built by mounting the 75 mm Obice da 75/18 modello 34 mountain gun on the chassis of a M13/40 or M14/41 tank. It had riveted steel plates, which were thicker but also less sloped than in the original tank. Frontal armour was almost vertical, but it consisted of two plates rather than a single layer, which improved stopping power.
You may think these tanks may only be for Italian Bolt Action armies, but you'd be dead wrong. Captured examples of the M13 were used by the Australians at Tobruk and the Germans were known to use Semoventes. The kit has you covered, including a decal sheet with Italian army, German army and Australian Army markings.
This box contains:
- One plastic Italian Carro Armato medium tank with options for the Semovente 75/18 tank destroyer
- Bolt Action stat cards
- Full-colour waterslide decal sheet
- Construction leaflet
- Damage markers
Note: Models supplied unassembled and unpainted. Plastic parts.

Kolkata (or Calcutta, as it is still sometimes spelled), the capital of the Indian state of West Bengal, was once the capital of British India. After 1912, when the capital moved to Delhi, most imperial institutions also relocated once new facilities were ready for them. The Imperial Records Department, for instance, moved from the Imperial Secretariat Building in Calcutta into its own building designed by Edwin Lutyens in the new capital. (After independence, the IRD became the National Archives of India.) But even as most institutions moved, some stayed behind, and one of these was the Imperial Library. Renamed the National Library of India (NLI) after independence, it is today the largest library in the country.
I had the privilege of spending two weeks at NLI while doing research for my dissertation in 2015. Of the three major institutions I visited for research in India (the other two were NAI and the Nehru Memorial Museum and Library), the National Library was certainly the easiest to find and navigate once I was there. My Rough Guide tourbook had a listing for NLI, including details on registration requirements. The people at the India Tourism office told me how to get there, by catching the 230 bus from Esplanade. Upon registration at the library, I received a full-color orientation booklet, with details of the different buildings at the complex and what can be found in each.
The National Library of India is located south of the city center at the Belvedere Estate, a big landscaped compound with a former imperial residence in it. The Belvedere House, as the residence is known, had once been occupied by Warren Hastings and (much later) was the main library building after independence, but in 2015 it was much the worse for wear and was being restored by the Archaeological Survey of India. The current main library building, Bhasha Bhawan (Language Building) is in the back of the compound. It is an attractive library building, with neither the dreary institutionality of the NAI New Building nor the high-class staidness of NMML.

Registering to use the National Library is free, and foreign nationals need only to fill out some forms and hand over one's passport for copying along with two passport-sized photos. There is no need to present a letter of recommendation or any other credentials. Getting permission to use a laptop computer in the library requires filling out an additional form.
My NLI reader card, issued to me after registration.
I spent most of my time at NLI in the periodicals reading room in Bhasha Bhawan. The library has a huge collection of magazines and journals bound into volumes, as well as the exhaustive gazettes produced by the central and state governments.
Bhasha Bhawan is climate-controlled, but at some time in the past the periodicals I looked at had been stored in a less favorable environment. Some of the volumes were covered with black dust, and many of them had holes in the pages where bugs or worms had eaten through them.

I also spent some time in the government publications reading room in the Annexe Building. The Annexe is a forbidding early-independence period highrise, with a plaque at the entrance saying that it was dedicated by Nehru in 1961. The government publications reading room is on the second floor, and it is reached by an elevator with doors that are opened and closed by hand. The reading room is as dreary as Bhasha Bhawan is attractive, with bare concrete floors and walls painted in an institutional blue without primer. The shelves holding the government publications are in the reading room, but readers are not supposed to enter the stacks. Instead, readers can request documents by submitting a slip at the front desk.
Foundation stone of the National Library Annexe.
Since registration and orientation at the National Library were straightforward, I was able to start research quickly and without much confusion. The main challenge I faced at NLI was when employees in certain departments would abscond from work for political reasons. West Bengal has a long history of being ruled by democratically-elected communist governments. Even though the communists have not been the ruling party for several years, they are still active and wield some power. One day, the Left Front (communists) and Bharatiya Janata Party staged a state-wide bandh (strike) to protest the results of the recent state and municipal elections; in the latter, the Trinamool Congress won a huge victory (114 seats for the TMC as opposed to 15 for the communists and seven for the BJP).

Despite the huge showing for the Trinamool Congress in the election, much of the city went on strike, including some workers at the library. I spent the morning of that day in the periodicals room, and I had no trouble getting the volumes I needed. But when I went over to the government publications reading room in the afternoon, a lone worker there told me that most of the staff were on strike, so I wouldn't be able to request documents. I left the library early that day, at 2:00.
The next day was May Day, an important holiday in India's most communist city. The staff at the library departments were back at work, but then in the evening my bus got trapped in an epic traffic jam caused by a long parade of the different trade unions on Chowringhee street.

Cows & Calves - July 2021
Prairie Valley Farm is located five miles west of Platte, South Dakota on Highway 44. It is owned and operated by David Mason.
In 1980, the late Clarence Mason, David's father, began a Charolais herd. Now, David and hired men, have expanded his herd to include 200 spring cows and 100 fall cows.
David's niece, Courtney, joined as bookkeeper in 2014, and her husband, Lyndon DeVries, joined the family business in November of 2016.
Since 1989, Prairie Valley Farm has been selecting their top bull calves to sell at their annual bull sale in April.
They also feed some customers' cattle and finish their own calves. The grain enterprise of Prairie Valley Farm consists of growing corn, wheat, beans and hay.
The Mason family would like to THANK YOU for visiting our website. Please take some time to view the links at the top of the page and let us know if we can be of any help to you.
Another satisfied customer!
David Mason receives the South Central Cattlemen's Association
"Producer of the Year" Award.
February 24th, 2018.
In 1989, David's father went to a small town in the corner of the state to purchase the top selling bull in hopes of having the best herd of cows in South Dakota. With help from his son, they selected and brought this man's dream to reality. His father taught him to be a master stockman, farmer, and cattle feeder.
Working on the farm his whole life, 40 years later, he is preparing for his 29th Annual Bull Sale where people come from near and far to purchase bulls with the best health, management, selection, and genetics to produce a quality product to meet the customers' needs.
His herd consists of 200 spring cows and 100 fall cows. The grain enterprise consists of growing corn, wheat, beans, and hay. He now has four full-time employees that make the operation so successful. In his down time, this cattleman enjoys attending the National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas and the College World Series in Omaha.
Our long time customer Steve Stluka, and his wife Tabitha, received the "Charolais Commercial Producer of the Year" award at the Annual Banquet held in Watertown on February 9th, 2018. Way to go Steve! We are proud of your hard work and dedication to the Charolais industry.
Steven Stluka was born July 29th, 1975. Steve graduated high school in 1993 from Geddes, SD, and then went on to college at Western Dakota Tech in Rapid City. After college, Steve came back to farm with his Dad, John, better known as "Sonny". Steve later married Tabitha Coler, and together, they have four children - Hayden (17), Seth (14), Chloe (12), and Sutton (11), where they reside near Lake Andes and their children attend Platte-Geddes School District.
In the early 1980s, Steve's dad started using Charolais bulls and a passion began for Steve. At age fifteen, Steve started his own cattle herd. Steve's dad passed away in 2014 and by then, they had worked their way to 100% Charolais Bulls. Today, Steve has 145 Red Angus cows bred to Charolais. Steve uses Hubbard feed through the Geddes Farmers Elevator. Along with his cattle, he produces corn, wheat, and soybeans. Steve's children enjoy working along side their dad, Hayden is actively involved in running the equipment, and the younger children help with the smaller day-to-day tasks.
When Steven is not working with his cattle herd, he is watching his kids' sporting events, helping his neighbors, or ice fishing.
Thanks for visiting. Hope To See You Soon!

Beginning this fall, CBS Student Services will support career exploration and preparation for undergraduates.
Starting in September, CBS Student Services will offer one-to-one appointments and programming for CBS students interested in graduate school, industry and beyond. Student Services already offers career counseling for students interested in health careers and support for undergraduates interested in research.
CBS and the College of Science and Engineering mutually decided to focus their respective career development efforts on the unique needs of their student earlier this year. Going forward, the Career Center for Science and Engineering in Lind Hall will exclusively support students in the College of Science and Engineering.
"This transition is the beginning of a shift to integrate career development work seamlessly into the work of CBS Student Services, with specialized staff dedicated to assist students in exploring and achieving their desired career paths," says Nikki Letawsky Shultz, director of student services and assistant dean for student affairs and international programs.

North Devon is blessed with some of the countries best beaches, most look out towards the West and the Atlantic Ocean with the island of Lundy set on the horizon. There is plenty to do on our beaches, whether it be walking or water sports or just to feel and see Nature at her finest!
Multi award winning Woolacombe and Putsborough Sands is a 2.5 mile stretch of golden, gently sloping sandy beach, with glorious sand dunes to walk and explore.
Croyde Bay is popular with surfers all year round and is busy in the summer months with holiday makers.
Saunton Sands is 4 miles of golden sandy beach stretching from Saunton Ridge and the famous deco Saunton Sands Hotel to the mouth of the River Taw. Crow Point sits at the far end of Saunton Sands and is a great place to get away from the summer crowds. Behind Saunton Sands dunes is the world famous Braunton Burrows and Saunton Golf Club.
There are many superb walks, especially on the South West Coast Path (South West Way) which runs right past our cottages. It is the UK's longest waymarked long-distance footpath along coastline at 1,014 km (630 miles) – much of which is owned by the National Trust.
The path runs along North Devon's finest, golden sandy beaches and dramatic cliff tops, mostly located on the North Devon Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, including Putsborough and Woolacombe Sands, Saunton Sands, Westwood Ho and of course the ever popular surfing beach of Croyde Bay. There are some fantastic views out to the Atlantic Ocean, Lundy Island and Wales.
Away from our beaches there are castles and grand houses to visit, there are country towns and pastel coloured fishing villages to discover, and beautiful gardens to explore. Some of these include:
The wonderfully preserved Clovelly Village and Harbour, with its cobbled street leading past beautiful cottages down towards the harbour and its pebbly beach.
Lynton and Lynmouth two villages on the coast, one above the other, known by the Victorians as Little Switzerland. Lynton is an attractive village and 600 feet below is small harbour of Lynmouth. The two villages are linked by a famous and ingenius cliff railway which is well worth a ride. Walks include up the river gorge to Watersmeet and west along the coastal path to the Valley of Rocks with its wonderful scenery and flock of wild goats.
Country Houses and Gardens include Arlington Court, and Tapeley Park (gardens). There are also family days out like Combe Martin Wildlife and Dinosaur Park, Exmoor Zoo, The Big Sheep and The Milky Way.
Surfing / Water
There are a variety of water sports available in the North Devon area; from surfing, kite surfing, stand up paddle boarding, body boarding and swimming.
Surf schools offering tuition and shops renting out or selling all the necessary kit are nearby at Putsborough, Croyde and Woolacombe.
Other water sports available include jet skiing, boating, kayaking, diving, and coast steering.
There are many types of fishing available in the area, you can fish straight off the beaches or hire a boat in Ilfracombe Harbour for some sea fishing.
Coarse fishing is available at Riverton Fisheries or Slade Reservoir near Ilfracombe.
Trout fishing is available at Blakewell Fisheries or Dulverton Lake and River.
Fly fishing tuition is available locally. Ask for more information…
Horses are allowed on both Putsborough / Woolacombe Beach and Saunton Sands and the area has many bridal paths. There are horse riding stables in Croyde and Woolacombe, and the bridal ways of Exmoor are not far away!
Golfers are perfectly placed to enjoy a round or two on some of the best courses in the country – North Devon is blessed with some excellent courses. There are the twin courses of Saunton Golf Club, the East Course was established in the 1880's and is in the Top 100 Courses of the World.
"I am a huge fan of Saunton" said Nick Faldo in a recent testimonial for Saunton Golf Club. "Framed by magnificent sand hills, it is a classic links course where the character of the terrain and the vagaries of a near ever-present wind combine to create a wonderfully absorbing challenge."
Royal North Devon at Westward Ho! can rightly claim to be the cradle of English Golf. Founded in 1864, it is the oldest golf course in the country and is regarded as the St Andrews of England. The course is as tough as any of the UK's better-known links and is ranked at number 69 in Golf Monthly's Top 120 Course Rankings and it also features in Golf World'sTop 100 courses in the world that every golfer "must play"
This area is renowned as having some of the most beautiful scenery in the UK, with Exmoor and Dartmoor National Parks to explore and is host to the Braunton Burrows.
The Burrows is the heart of North Devon's BiosphereReserve, the only UNESCO-designated biosphere reserve in the UK. Braunton Burrows is a prime British sand dune site, the largest sand dune system (psammosere) in England. It is particularly important ecologically because it includes the complete successional range of dune plant communities, with over 400 plant species. The short turf communities are very rich in lichens and herbs, and the dune slacks are also rich. The many rare plants and animals include 14 with UK Biodiversity Action Plans. For example, this is one of only two sites in the UK for the Amber Sandbowl Snail Catinella arenaria, which is found on the wet dune slacks.
The Burrows are very special and are designated as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, a National nature reserve, a SSSI, a Ramsar site, a Special Area of Conservation, part of the North Devon AONB and the North Devon Heritage Coast.

Tor Can't Always Keep You Safe; Just Ask Silk Road
The Internet's premiere black market has been shuttered by the feds, and it's a reminder that while Tor is great, it's not perfect.
By Max Eddy
https://www.pcmag.com/news/tor-cant-always-keep-you-safe-just-ask-silk-road
It was the end of an era yesterday when the Internet's largest (and highly profitable) black market website Silk Road was finally taken down by the feds. Its proprietor Ross William Ulbricht (aka Dread Pirate Roberts) was taken into custody and now we're learning a lot about the site that offered everything from drugs to assassins. We're also learning about the limits of online anonymity.
Named for the ancient cross-desert trade route, Silk Road was a marketplace designed to let users sell their wares—particularly, illegal goods and services. According to documents filed in conjunction with the investigation, the service saw billions of dollars pass through it in the form of untraceable Bitcoins.
To protect the site's users, Silk Road took advantage of the Tor (The Onion Router) anonymity network which bounces your request around to make it harder to track. When you connect to Silk Road, and other websites secured by Tor, your request is bounced through a series of volunteer servers. The request uses encrypted layers, like an onion, so that each relay server can only see where the request has immediately arrived from and where it will go next.
For instance, if you're on computer A trying to connect to website E, your request is bounced through Tor servers B, C, and D. Server B can see where you are because it's the first hop in the chain, but it doesn't know that you're trying to reach website E. Server D does know what website your request is headed to, but it doesn't know where you are. Server C doesn't know much of anything.
It's a clever system that has protected journalists and human rights activists, in addition to providing a modicum of security to less reputable operations. But like all security technology, it can be beaten.
Breaking Tor
Back when we looked at the Pirate Bay Browser, we highlighted a few of the problems with Tor. The big one, and the one that Tor has always admitted to, is that with careful traffic monitoring and a little math you can figure out who connects to what on Tor.
"The way we generally explain it is that Tor tries to protect against traffic analysis, where an attacker tries to learn whom to investigate," reads a 2009 blogpost from Tor. "But Tor can't protect against traffic confirmation (also known as end-to-end correlation), where an attacker tries to confirm a hypothesis by monitoring the right locations in the network and then doing the math."
Basically, if you think that person A is connecting to website E, you can sit at the entry to the Tor network and at an exit point, you can eventually infer the path of travel. But you have to know who to watch before you start your investigation.
Alternatively, you can be infected with malware while on a Tor site and have your computer's identifying information sent off to an observer. This is how the FBI was reportedly able to crack a notorious child pornography ring and bring charges against its operator, Eric Eoin Marques.
In that investigation, it appears that the FBI took control of Freedom Hosting—which hosted Marques's site—and used them to display an error message. Within the error message was an iFrame which in turn injected code onto the computer of anyone who visited a Freedom Hosting site. Wired writes that this code captured the infected computer's MAC address and Windows host name. This information was then packaged up and sent back to an unidentified server somewhere in Northern Virginia.
Plain Ol' Detective Work
In the case of Silk Road, the investigation appears to have relied on more traditional policework than breaking Tor. Wired reports that the feds simply looked around for the earliest mention of Silk Road on the Internet. That led to a posting on a magic mushroom forum, which in turn led to Ulbricht's Gmail account.
That's not the whole story, and in fact there are a lot of gaps in the chain of events. Police somehow got a hold of several fake IDs with Ulbricht's face on them during a border check, and somehow were able to trace Silk Road's servers. But the initial connection to Ulbricht appears to have required no special hacking, just some persistent Googling and subpoenas.
The lesson here is that behind all the encryption and obfuscation is a person. A person who makes mistakes, a person who leaves clues, and a person who is now facing serious charges. As long as people are still people, they'll always be vulnerable.

Durante i primi anni da professionista ha giocato soprattutto in doppio. Al torneo di Wimbledon 2007 - Doppio ragazze, in coppia con la connazionale Kurumi Nara, è arrivata alla finale ma le due hanno poi perso da Anastasija Pavljučenkova e Urszula Radwańska. L'anno dopo al Australian Open 2008 - Singolare ragazze è stata sconfitta al terzo turno da Jasmina Tinjic mentre al doppio è arrivata nuovamente in finale dove Ksenija Lykina e Anastasija Pavljučenkova hanno battuto lei e la sua compagna Elena Bogdan con un putenggio di 6-0, 6-4. Sempre con Kurumi Nara all'US Open 2008 - Doppio ragazze è arrivata ai quarti di finale; le due sono state poi sconfitte dalle atlete Noppawan Lertcheewakarn e Sandra Roma con un punteggio di 3-6 5-7 (le due avversarie poi vinsero la competizione).

Nel 2015 sono per lei iniziate le grandi soddisfazioni in singolare, con la conquista del primo titolo, il BGL-BNP Paribas Open Luxembourg, in cui ha sconfitto in finale Mona Barthel. Nel 2016 ha vinto il suo secondo torneo, a San Antonio, battendo nell'atto finale la tedesca Anna-Lena Friedsam. Sempre nel 2016 ha rappresentato il Giappone alle Olimpiadi di Rio, dove è uscita al secondo turno.
