The War that Ended Peace
Narrated by: Richard Burnip
The First World War followed a period of sustained peace in Europe during which people talked with confidence of prosperity, progress and hope. But in 1914, Europe walked into a catastrophic conflict which killed millions of its men, bled its economies dry, shook empires and societies to pieces, and fatally undermined Europe's dominance of the world. It was a war which could have been avoided up to the last moment - so why did it happen?
Makes You Pray for the War to Begin
By john on 2018-08-16
Written by: Barbara W. Tuchman
Narrated by: Wanda McCaddon
Length: 19 hrs and 9 mins
In this Pulitzer Prize-winning classic, historian Barbara Tuchman brings to life the people and events that led up to World War I. This was the last gasp of the Gilded Age, of Kings and Kaisers and Czars, of pointed or plumed hats, colored uniforms, and all the pomp and romance that went along with war. How quickly it all changed...and how horrible it became.
Can't believe this happens only 100 years ago!

Written by: Simon Sebag Montefiore
Narrated by: Simon Beale
This is the intimate story of 20 tsars and tsarinas, some touched by genius, some by madness, but all inspired by holy autocracy and imperial ambition. Simon Sebag Montefiore's gripping chronicle reveals their secret world of unlimited power and ruthless empire building, overshadowed by palace conspiracy, family rivalries, sexual decadence, and wild extravagance, with a global cast of adventurers, courtesans, revolutionaries, and poets, from Ivan the Terrible to Tolstoy and Pushkin.

Apocalyptic Moments, from the Bronze Age Collapse to Nuclear Near Misses
Written by: Dan Carlin
Narrated by: Dan Carlin
In The End Is Always Near, Dan Carlin looks at questions and historical events that force us to consider what sounds like fantasy; that we might suffer the same fate that all previous eras did. Will our world ever become a ruin for future archaeologists to dig up and explore? The questions themselves are both philosophical and like something out of The Twilight Zone.

The Last Lion: Winston Spencer Churchill, Volume I: Visions of Glory 1874-1932
Written by: William Manchester
Narrated by: Frederick Davidson
Winston Churchill is perhaps the most important political figure of the 20th century. His great oratory and leadership during the Second World War were only part of his huge breadth of experience and achievement. Studying his life is a fascinating way to imbibe the history of his era and gain insight into key events that have shaped our time.

Lies, Spies, and a Conspiracy to Protect Predators
Written by: Ronan Farrow
Narrated by: Ronan Farrow
In 2017, a routine network television investigation led Ronan Farrow to a story only whispered about: one of Hollywood's most powerful producers was a predator, protected by fear, wealth, and a conspiracy of silence. As Farrow drew closer to the truth, shadowy operatives, from high-priced lawyers to elite war-hardened spies, mounted a secret campaign of intimidation, threatening his career, following his every move, and weaponizing an account of abuse in his own family. All the while, Farrow and his producer faced a degree of resistance they could not explain - until now.

The Plantagenets: The Kings Who Made England
Written by: Dan Jones
Narrated by: Dan Jones
England's greatest royal dynasty, the Plantagenets, ruled over England through eight generations of kings. Their remarkable reign saw England emerge from the Dark Ages to become a highly organised kingdom that spanned a vast expanse of Europe. Plantagenet rule saw the establishment of laws and creation of artworks, monuments and tombs which survive to this day, and continue to speak of their sophistication, brutality and secrets. Dan Jones brings you a new vision of this battle-scarred history.

A World Undone
The Story of the Great War, 1914 to 1918
Written by: G. J. Meyer
Narrated by: Robin Sachs
The First World War is one of history's greatest tragedies. In this remarkable and intimate account, author G. J. Meyer draws on exhaustive research to bring to life the story of how the Great War reduced Europe's mightiest empires to rubble, killed 20 million people, and cracked the foundations of the world we live in today. World War I is unique in the number of questions about it that remain unsettled. After more than 90 years, scholars remain divided on these questions, and it seems likely that they always will.

A History of Ancient Rome
Written by: Mary Beard
Narrated by: Phyllida Nash
Ancient Rome matters. Its history of empire, conquest, cruelty and excess is something against which we still judge ourselves. Its myths and stories - from Romulus and Remus to the rape of Lucretia - still strike a chord with us. And its debates about citizenship, security and the rights of the individual still influence our own debates on civil liberty today. SPQR is a new look at Roman history from one of the world's foremost classicists.

A People's Tragedy
Written by: Orlando Figes
Narrated by: Roger Davis
Opening with a panorama of Russian society, from the cloistered world of the Tsar to the brutal life of the peasants, A People's Tragedy follows workers, soldiers, intellectuals and villagers as their world is consumed by revolution and then degenerates into violence and dictatorship. Drawing on vast original research, Figes conveys above all the shocking experience of the revolution for those who lived it, while providing the clearest and most cogent account of how and why it unfolded.
Operation Husky
The Canadian Invasion of Sicily, July 10–August 7, 1943
Written by: Mark Zuehlke
Narrated by: Paul Christy
Length: 16 hrs
On July 10, 1943, two great Allied armadas of over 2,000 ships readied to invade Sicily. This was Operation Husky, the first step toward winning a toehold in fascist-occupied Europe. Among the invaders were 20,000 Canadian troops serving in the First Canadian Infantry Division and First Canadian Tank Brigade - in their first combat experience. Over the next 28 days, the Allied troops carved a path through the rugged land, despite fierce German opposition.

The Future Is History
How Totalitarianism Reclaimed Russia
Written by: Masha Gessen
Narrated by: Masha Gessen
Hailed for her "fearless indictment of the most powerful man in Russia" (The Wall Street Journal), award-winning journalist Masha Gessen is unparalleled in her understanding of the events and forces that have wracked her native country in recent times. In The Future Is History, she follows the lives of four people born at what promised to be the dawn of democracy. Each came of age with unprecedented expectations, some as the children and grandchildren of the very architects of the new Russia, each with newfound aspirations of their own.
A Life
Written by: Adam Zamoyski
Narrated by: Leighton Pugh
The story of Napoleon has been written many times. In some versions, he is a military genius, in others a war-obsessed tyrant. Here, historian Adam Zamoyski cuts through the mythology and explains Napoleon against the background of the European Enlightenment, and what he was himself seeking to achieve. This most famous of men is also the most hidden of men, and Zamoyski dives deeper than any previous biographer to find him. Beautifully written, Napoleon brilliantly sets the man in his European context.
Napoleon: A Life

Narrated by: Mark Deakins
The Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Peter the Great, Nicholas and Alexandra, and The Romanovs returns with another masterpiece of narrative biography, the extraordinary story of an obscure young German princess who traveled to Russia at fourteen and rose to become one of the most remarkable, powerful, and captivating women in history.
Incredibly inspiring.

The Passage of Power
The Years of Lyndon Johnson
Written by: Robert A. Caro
The Passage of Power follows Lyndon Johnson through both the most frustrating and the most triumphant periods of his career - 1958 to 1964. It is a time that would see him trade the extraordinary power he had created for himself as Senate Majority Leader for what became the wretched powerlessness of a Vice President in an administration that disdained and distrusted him. Yet it was, as well, the time in which the presidency, the goal he had always pursued, would be thrust upon him in the moment it took an assassin's bullet to reach its mark.
Very Detailed
The English and Their History
Written by: Robert Tombs
Narrated by: James Langton
Robert Tombs' momentous The English and Their History is both a startlingly fresh and a uniquely inclusive account of the people who have a claim to be the oldest nation in the world. The English first came into existence as an idea, before they had a common ruler and before the country they lived in even had a name. They have lasted as a recognizable entity ever since, and their defining national institutions can be traced back to the earliest years of their history.
Good Overall but some issues

Publisher's Summary
Winner of the Samuel Johnson Prize, renowned historian Margaret MacMillan's best-selling Paris 1919 is the story of six remarkable months that changed the world. At the close of WWI, between January and July of 1919, delegates from around the world converged on Paris under the auspices of peace. New countries were created, old empires were dissolved, and for six months, Paris was the center of the world. Bringing to vivid life the individuals who participated in the great Peace Conference, including Woodrow Wilson, Winston Churchill, Lawrence of Arabia, and Ho Chi Minh, Paris 1919 is a landmark work of narrative history.

Margaret Brown-Bury
Informative and interesting
Incrediably full of facts and information without being too bland. The narrator is good, albeit not great, and pleasing to listen to. Not always clear when she is reading a quote - other Macmillan books I have listened to, the narrator took on accents which nicely broke things up. But her voice is good and her pace with the constant onslaught of facts is good.
Worth every minute
Margaret MacMillan's text is thorough, detailed and fascinating. She brings alive the players in this significant part of 20th century history. The narration is excellent and despite it being 25 hours long, I found myself wanting more at the end. I plan to listen to it again! Thanks for bringing this to the air. I find it so much easier to 'read' non fiction in this way.
Excellent History
Compared with the Second, the First World War receives much less attention in popular history, including here on Audible. Macmillan has done a marvelous job of explaining the personalities and challenges faced at the 1919 peace conference in Paris. She sketches the leaders well and manages to explain the many interlocking issues without excessive detail or repetition. She avoids the conventional wisdom and offers a balanced view. The overall impact is a compelling narrative with humour and quite a few "aha!" moments when the modern outcomes of the peace conference ecome clear. The author might be faulted for an excess of focus on Woodrow Wilson, but the book does not suffer too much for it. An informative picture of moral relativism and Realpolitik emerges, both in the American camp and elsewhere.

Good book, well narrated
I have some familiarity with the topic but I am not sure that was necessary to appreciate this well written, thorough narrative of the conference of the Allied powers that was the final act of World War I. The author provides a very good description of the three men, Woodrow Wilson, David Lloyd George and Georges Clemenceau who together drew a new map of the world out of the destruction of WW I.
The author's style reminds me of Barbara Tuchman, who is one of my favorite authors. The book provides a wealth of information in a style that is never dry or boring. This is good narrative history that kept me interested in the story of one of the most important events of the 20th century. The author never got bogged down by the details as she told the final chapter of how the dynasties of Europe were replaced by a group of modern nations.
Ms. McMillan draws a fine picture, warts and all, of how these world changing decisions were made. Wilson is the idealist who gets worn down by the balance of power ideas of Clemenceau and Lloyd George. He finally lets them draw the map as long as the treaty includes the League of Nations. Clemenceau's goal is to grind down Germany and safeguard France. Lloyd George fights for the interests of England in Africa and the Middle East. The scene where the German delegation is presented with a treaty which they must sign or watch their country continue to starve shows how power was wielded by the Big Three.
I enjoyed the book very much and can only list a few high points in my limited space. The narrator is very good and certainly contributed to an overall experience that exceeded my expectations.
accessible window on today's world
MacMillian uses the Paris Peace Conference as a window on not only the outcomes of WWI but also on its causes and course. As the intro states the "flawed decisons with terrible consequences" of that gathering still shape our contemporary world. Want to understand the G20? Start here.
Some reviewers have disliked the book's detail - but it was exactly the picturesque (and sometimes humourous) detail of a politico's personality or the power behind his throne that kept me listening past the dryer explanation of the redrawing of borders.
I liked Toren's narration of this nonfiction better than her voice for historical fiction. Although MacMillian isn't academic in tone, neither is she chatty or breezy, so Toren helps by lightening up the tone.
If you're tempted to try a Margaret MacMillian work to see why she sells so much history to average readers, this would be a good place to start. It's a listenable blend of social and political history.
History repeats itself.
Everyone with an oar in the water on Afghanistan and Iraq ought to read this book. Anyone who wonders why central Europe is so titanically messed up needs to read this book. Anyone who wants to know why the world looks the way it does today needs to read this book. It is at times dry and full of endless asides, but all the detail leads towards understanding. Very worthwhile.
R L Crepeau
Informative and entertaining
This is an outstanding book that probes the depths of the US, UK and French leaders and their thinking in 1919. It is informative as well as entertaining in the humanistic portrayals of participants in the 1919 peace conference. The best read book I've heard especially given I am hearing deficient.
David A. Cadogan
Factual and colourful
I'm overwhelmed with the exhaustive effort Margaret MacMillan put into this book. For the first time, I have some idea of the challenges that faced the leaders of the day.
The book is rich in factual detail and coloured with the personal details, observations and personalites of the players.
It has immediately become a very important element in my understanding of the 20th century.
Pink Flame of Liberty
audible kids? no way
The intro that this is for audible kids was a shocker. I was an avid reader as a kid, but this book is way too tedious for a child, it would have caused me to jump out a window. However, as an adult, it is a very good and thorough history lesson. I learned more though about that period in American history (and indeed world history) than I ever knew before. Just when I thought the world leaders actually knew what they were doing, you find out that they were basically winging it.
MarjD
Plodding narration
McMillan's scholarship is deep, her analyses incisive, her personal portraits illuminating and often humorous. My gripe is with the narration, which, to this American listener's ear, is plodding and "vedy sediously" pretentious, barely tolerable even with the iPod cranked up to warp speed. I'd recommend instead McMillan's lecture series on the same topic, available from audible.com, which is of course in her own, very delightful, voice.
Carole T.
Packed with Insight
I have enormous respect for this writer and this book! It's long, but I had no trouble at all getting through it. So much information. If ever a book illustrated the old proverb "if you don't learn from history, you're doomed to repeat it", this one does! Read this for a fascinating portrayal of the times, the characters, the politics of this monumentally important occurrence at the end of WWI. I learned so much and it sent me on to other histories of the European wars of the 20th century. A truly extraordinary look at an amazing event!
Interesting and Detailed but Not for Everyone
This was quite a marathon listen, even for me - and I regularly listen to long, dense non fiction and enjoy it. It wasn't so much the length but rather the degree of detail that made it seem like such a long book - it really went over every little bit of the peace conference. I appreciated this, since I bought it to learn about the conference, after all, but it was excruciating at times. It covers not only the peace treaties with Germany, Austria, Hungary, Turkey, and Bulgaria, but also the formation of Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, Poland, Iraq, Armenia, Turkey, Syria, and Palestine (it covers border disputes in detail, so pulling up a map is really helpful if you do not have detailed maps of Europe and the Middle East memorized). It covers the Chinese-Japanese conflict in China, the origins of the dispute between Zionist Jews and Arab nationalists in Palestine, and the Russian civil war. It also gives a great deal of insight into the personalities of not just the biggest players, but also less well-known people like the leaders of British Empire dominions (like Canada and Australia - something this Canadian really appreciated), the leaders of defeated countries, nationalist leaders like Ataturk, and delegates from minor players like Greece and Romania. I feel like I know so much more than before I started that even now, less than a week after finishing the book, I'm having trouble straightening out all the details in my head. It's one of those books you need to listen to three times to really get everything, and not always in a good way.
Because it covered everything, it could be difficult to keep track of at times because of all the events that you need to remember over the course of the book. This problem, which is mostly inevitable with historical non fiction that focuses on such a short time period, was made worse by the author's decision to divide the book by issue covered at the conference rather than telling it as a more coherent narrative. I understand that this was done because telling it day-by-day would have been even worse (they were dealing with multiple issues every day), but there should have been some sort of compromise between those two extremes. It had some, though not enough, references to events going on at the same time to help you piece together the context of the timing, but overall it was often confusing, especially since a reference might be to something you haven't listened to yet because it's discussed in a later section. If the format had been at least a little chronological (maybe by month first and then by issues covered that month?), it would have been a lot easier to appreciate the good qualities of the book.
I have listened to several audiobooks about this time period and therefore was familiar with some of the people and a lot of the preceding events (like the armistice agreement and the abdication of the Kaiser), but even with background knowledge this book was at times totally overwhelming. It made a lot of assumptions about what you already knew as a reader and it required very close attention in order to keep track of everything. It's too bad that the book would be inaccessible to someone who doesn't know much about this time period, because the consequences of the peace conference were at times surprising, enlightening, and fascinating and I'm sure a lot of people would find them interesting in a more accessible format. There were a lot of times where I said out loud, alone in the car, "What?! I didn't know that!" - it gave me a new perspective on a lot of things, both historical and modern. There was a lot of good material in there, once you got over the hurdles of too much tiny detail and not enough context for non-enthusiasts.
One other strange thing about the book was the ending. After having been neutral and factual throughout the book, the end was all about the author's point of view that the Versailles Treaty should not be blamed for the Second World War like it often is by historians. This was an interesting point of view that was well-supported by facts I didn't know beforehand, but it felt sort of out of place when the focus of the book was not exclusively - not even primarily - the German treaty.
The narration was good. It was easy to follow and mostly not monotonous, which was good because you needed to stay engaged in the book constantly in order to follow it.
Overall, I would say I expanded my knowledge of this time period and its effects on the present day, but I sort of felt like I was listening to a professor give a lecture series where I was expected to take notes and do more research on my own time. This isn't a book for people who are looking for a first foray into learning about this time period (you need to already know a reasonable amount about the First World War, and to some extent the Second World War, the Russian Revolution, and the Cold War, to fully understand it) - it is definitely not light reading. If you are interested in the subject already, as I am, it's worth listening to - I'm glad I did in spite of the book's flaws. But it takes some concentration and dedication to finishing it to do so because of the jumping around in time and the huge cast of characters. This book was so informative and detailed that it was more like taking a course than reading a history book intended for public consumption - it is not for everyone. For me, it was a four-star book - worth reading in spite of its organizational issues - but I wouldn't recommend it to very many people I know all the same.

Newcastle rejected a £14m offer from PSG for Cabaye over the weekend but the club is braced for an improved bid before the transfer window slams shut on Friday.
He said: "You are talking to someone who lost Andy Carroll with eight hours to go, so am I confident?
Newcastle are believed to want at least £25m to let Cabaye leave, but PSG have publicly stated their desire to bring the 28-year-old on board after failing to prise Miralem Pjanic away from Roma.
No, I'm not confident, and I don't think any team not in a Champions League position or fighting for a Champions League position could be.
And while the Magpies' boss is hopeful that Cabaye can be retained, after fighting off similar interest from Arsenal over the summer even after the player went on strike, he admits that PSG could be difficult to resist.
He said: "We know we have got a club interested in Cabaye, a very wealthy club and a powerful club, and we are conscious of that.
While PSG are in pole position to land Cabaye should Newcastle relent, Manchester United are also thought to be considering a £20m bid while Arsenal still hold some hope they might be able to lure the former Lille star to London.
Despite the uncertainty, Cabaye has been named in the squad to face Norwich on Tuesday while Mathieu Debuchy is also set to return after a three-match ban.
Newcastle: Krul, Elliot, Debuchy, Santon, Williamson, Yanga-Mbiwa, S. Taylor, Dummett, Haidara, Tiote, Anita, Cabaye, Marveaux, Sissoko, Ben Arfa, Sammy Ameobi, Bigirimana, Gosling, Remy, Gouffran, Shola Ameobi.

Rome Convention Center
Sport Arena (Palazzo dello Sport)
(source www.palalottomatica.it)
Rome's Palazzo dello Sport, better known today as the PalaLottomatica, is the Capital's largest structure for events.
Built as EUR's Palazzo dello Sport based on a project by Pierluigi Nervi and Marcello Piacentini for the Rome Olympics in 1960, it is considered one of the masterpieces of Italian rationalism and was restored and returned to the city in 2003 by the ForumNet Group, who entrusted Massimiliano Fuksas with the task of customising the external window, inspired by Neapolitan "smorfia" (in which every object corresponds to a number). ForumNet continues to manage the installation through the company All Events, giving it access to the EAA (European Arenas Association), the only Italian structure together with the Mediolanum Forum. As well as representing a compulsory venue for the concerts of all the major Italian and international music stars, the PalaLottomatica regularly hosts sporting events, shows, corporate conventions, trade fairs and competitions.
The central arena (with a dome 35 m in height and with a diameter of 95 m) can hold up to 10,500 people in various different layouts. A panoramic ring (3,000 m2) runs around the upper level of the arena: a prime viewpoint for events that can hold up to 2,500 people seated. Inside the ring there are also 4 Boxes and 14 Skyboxes, exclusive and private, dedicated to companies. The range of options offered by PalaLottomatica is completed by the sala Tevere (700 m2) and by an external area measuring 20,000 m2 with a panoramic terrace (2,400 m2), overlooking EUR's lake.
The parking areas reserved for guests and visitors are particularly large.
The location of the PalaLottomatica within the EUR district, of which it is one of the main architectural features, means that it can be reached with ease both from Termini Station and from Fiumicino Airport, as well as from the GRA (Outer Ring Road).
Over 850,000 people frequent the PalaLottomatica every year..

The digitalised world of work will necessitate proper transition management – not only from the side of enterprises, but also from that of human capital.
On the one hand, enterprises have to identify and assess the new needs and draw up and implement plans for controlling the risks and reducing the costs of the transition; employees, on the other hand, should be provided with appropriate guidance and training, so that they can adapt to the new reality and be able to seize the opportunities offered and thrive.
Another aspect to be taken into consideration in the digitalised world of work is the use of data. Thanks to digital technologies and data, the evolution of trends is better understood and targeted support can be proposed to individuals; yet the use of these digital data should be regulated.
The opinion will build on the work already carried out by the Committee on the future of work.
emphasises that the EU should support the new research field of "cognitive ergonomics", aimed at adopting measures facilitating a human-centred use of smart technologies.

Prize Saver
Prize Saver is an HM Treasury pilot scheme to incentivise people to save with credit unions. The Treasury have ended their involvement with the scheme – however, the participating Credit Unions have agreed to continue the prize draws until September 2021. Top prize winner each month receives £5,000, plus there are twenty runner-up £20 prizes. Terms & conditions also state that there may be bonus prize draws. Full details are at prizesaver.co.uk but check your local CU for the latest update (a link to the East Sussex T&Cs is here).
Interest rate: most credit unions do not pay any interest, but pay out an annual dividend to savers
Requirements: Save at least £1 in a savings account. Every £1 in your account at the end of each month gives you one automatic entry into the following month's prize draw – up to a maximum of 200 entries a month
Prizes: Monthly prizes are 1 x £5,000 and 20 x £20
How to open account: Join your local Credit Union by clicking on the relevant link from the list at prizesaver.co.uk, then open an account via your local Credit Union website.
How to enter: If you have at least £1 in savings, you are automatically entered into the monthly draw
Deadline to open account: September 2021 (this may be extended again)
When are winners contacted: Draws take place mid-month, and winners are contacted within 21 days.
NS&I Premium Bonds
NS&I Premium Bonds have been around since 1956, and are an alternative to a savings account. Instead of paying interest, they offer a 34,500 to 1 chance of winning a prize for every £1 bond you hold (the equivalent of 1% interest rate) – this figure was 24,500 to 1 (1.4% interest rate) until November 2020, so the number of prizes has dropped significantly. You can invest between £25 and £50,000.
Ever wondered what ERNIE stands for? It means Electronic Random Number Indicator Equipment – powered by quantum technology, ERNIE 5 chooses the random winners each month! Full details on the NS&I Premium Bonds are here.
Prizes: NS&I pay out over three million tax-free prizes every month, ranging from £25 to £1 million.
When are winners contacted: Winners of monthly draws are notified by email or text message. You can also check online at www.nsandi.com/prize-checker or on the NS&I app, to see if you've won. Prizes less than £5,000 are paid into your nominated bank account – for larger prizes you will be asked to complete a form.
How to open account: online, by phone or by post
Restrictions: Anyone age 16+ can hold Premium Bonds. Bonds in a child's name are looked after by a parent or guardian.
Windfall Bond
The Family Building Society offer a 'Windfall Bond' similar to Premium Bonds, with a chance to win cash prizes in monthly draws – but they also pay you interest! Note that the number of accounts is limited to 15,000 – so be quick if you're interested.
Helpfully we're told that each individual Windfall Bond has a 1 in 714 chance of winning a prize in any given draw – and a 1 in 60 chance of winning at least one prize across a year of draws. The odds of a Windfall Bond win are nearly six times better than Premium Bonds.
Interest rate: Bank of England Bank Rate
Requirements: For each Windfall Bond you must invest exactly £10,000
Prizes: 21 monthly prizes of 15 x £1,000, 3 x £2,500, 2 x £10,000 and 1 x £50,000
How to open account: Open an account online at www.familybuildingsociety.co.uk – you can have multiple bonds.
How to enter: Windfall Bonds will be included in a draw for the first time in the second calendar month after being opened (if you open an account in Sept, you'll be in the Nov draw)
Deadline to open account: no deadline, but bonds are limited to the first applicants
When are winners contacted: Draws take place on the tenth working day of the month, and winners are contacted within 21 days.
Restrictions: Open to UK residents, age 18+
If you do decide to open a new savings account, make sure to keep the details somewhere safe and to let your loved ones know. I have a spreadsheet with details of all my investments, and have given my husband access to it… just in case!

Has anyone won anything with the Halifax in the past? My mum has had a Halifax for years but hasn't won anything.
Julie Rayner says:
my parents won £5000 when it first started.
Hi Julie, thank for that. When about did it start? My mum thinks she's had a Halifax savings account since the 90s. Now that I've told her about the draw she's not happy. I think she's going to have to double check she's in it!
I don't know when it started but I'd say they won around 2008 time
MALCOLM POYSEE says:

mehboob Sidat says:

Sean Tuaima says:
I've was in the Halifax savers prize draw for 10 years and I was eligible all that time and I never won anything from them.
Alyson Smith says:
Hi Di,
Love your blog – I'm a new comper so your advice is brilliant. Just wanted to let you know that I rang my local credit union re the PrizeSaver account and the Treasury have stopped it and you cant open those accounts anymore. Apparently that's effective from the end of last month 🙁
Di says:
I might get in touch with the Treasury about this as I would have expected them to update the PrizeSaver website with this information! Thanks for letting me know!
I've contacted my local Credit Union (East Sussex), who say the PrizeSaver account is still running and the next prize draw is 16 April 2021.

Q: How to detect touches on a skspritenode created in a separate scene using a custom class of that node So basically I have a node called tree and I designed it in a .sks file.
I added a custom class for the skspritenode but the custom class doesn't seem to affect the node.
I am trying to detect touches on the node and its children.
This node is being transfered to multiple scenes using removefromparent() and addchild() functions so instead of writing duplicate code on each scene to detect the touch I am trying to use the custom node class to do it... any help would be appreciated.
note i have super.init function with the texture as it is necessary but I would like to use the node that was already created in the scene.
My class code
import SpriteKit

class tree: SKSpriteNode {

    init() {
        let texture = SKTexture(imageNamed: "tree")
        super.init(texture: texture, color: SKColor.clear, size: texture.size())
        self.isUserInteractionEnabled = true
    }

    required init?(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {
        super.init(coder: aDecoder)
    }

    override func touchesBegan(_ touches: Set<UITouch>, with event: UIEvent?) {
        for touch in touches {
            print("touched!")
        }
    }

}

A: There is a good explanation in this answer that should be clear your ideas about SKS files and subclassing.
About your code it is a good habit to use uppercase letter for the class names, in your case I prefer to use class Tree instead of class tree.
About your second issue, you can use userData to transfer your object from a scene to another as explained below in my example:
import SpriteKit
class GameScene: SKScene {
    private var label : SKLabelNode?
    var tree : Tree!
    override func didMove(to view: SKView) {
        self.label = self.childNode(withName: "//helloLabel") as? SKLabelNode
        if let label = self.label {
            label.alpha = 0.0
            label.run(SKAction.fadeIn(withDuration: 2.0))
        }
        self.isUserInteractionEnabled = true
        tree = Tree()
        tree.name = "tree"
        addChild(tree)
        tree.position = CGPoint(x:self.frame.midX,y:self.frame.midY)
    }
    override func touchesBegan(_ touches: Set<UITouch>, with event: UIEvent?) {
        for touch: AnyObject in touches {
            let pointOfTouch = touch.location(in: self)
            let nodeUserTapped = atPoint(pointOfTouch)
            if nodeUserTapped.name == "tree" {
                tree.removeFromParent()
                let sceneToMoveTo = Scene2.init(size: self.size)
                sceneToMoveTo.userData = NSMutableDictionary()
                sceneToMoveTo.userData?.setObject(tree, forKey: "tree" as NSCopying)
                let gameTransition = SKTransition.fade(withDuration: 0.5)
                self.view!.presentScene(sceneToMoveTo, transition: gameTransition)

            }
        }
    }
}
class Scene2: SKScene {
    var tree:Tree!
    override func didMove(to view: SKView) {
        print("This is the scene: \(type(of:self))")
        guard let previousValue = self.userData?.value(forKey: "tree") else { return }
        if previousValue is Tree {
            tree = previousValue as! Tree
            addChild(tree)
            tree.position = CGPoint(x:self.frame.midX,y:self.frame.midY)
        }
    }
    override func touchesBegan(_ touches: Set<UITouch>, with event: UIEvent?) {
        for touch: AnyObject in touches {
            let pointOfTouch = touch.location(in: self)
            let nodeUserTapped = atPoint(pointOfTouch)
            if nodeUserTapped.name == "tree" {
                tree.removeFromParent()
                if let sceneToMoveTo = SKScene(fileNamed: "GameScene") {
                    sceneToMoveTo.scaleMode = .aspectFill
                    sceneToMoveTo.userData = NSMutableDictionary()
                    sceneToMoveTo.userData?.setObject(tree, forKey: "tree" as NSCopying)
                    let gameTransition = SKTransition.fade(withDuration: 0.5)
                    self.view!.presentScene(sceneToMoveTo, transition: gameTransition)
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

As you can read I've the control of touches both in my parent class and in my node, this can be made possible by changing the touchesBegan method of your custom SKSpriteNode as:
override func touchesBegan(_ touches: Set<UITouch>, with event: UIEvent?) {
    for touch in touches {
        print("touched!")
    }
    guard let parent = self.parent else { return }
    parent.touchesBegan(touches, with: event)
}

Remember that you should extend this approach also to the other touches method if you want to use them..

The sequel to Silicon Beach's legendary Dark Castle. Released shortly after the original, it turned out to be more of the same, but that's no criticism.
Fans of the series would have to wait another 20 years for a third installment, Return to Dark Castle. Available for modern Macs on the Apple App Store.
One of my all time favorites. I bought Return to Dark Castle. Even after all these years, the rhythm of the classic levels came right back.
The page is getting a little overloaded with downloads, but I've added my archive of version 1.1 that I've just found. It's got a compatibility chart included with its docs, detailing which system versions and which models the game works with.
I just added an interview with the programmer, Jonathan Gay. It's the 55k download. Posting as .pdf to docs didn't show up.
Just wanted to plug the updated version of this game, Return to Dark Castle, that is currently available on Apple's app store for $5. I've been playing at it little by little for the last month, and it took me a while to get started, but it was worth it.
It's a nice update on Dark Castle and Beyond Dark Castle but remains completely faithful in very many ways. I support copying and distributing abandonware (obviously), but when an app like this hasn't been completely abandoned, I say we owe it to the rights holders to reward them for their work. Five dollars well spent. If nothing else, maybe they'll notice a little referral traffic from this site and think kindly of our efforts.
Well done Arthegall; if only everyone would take such care with their old software!
I've added a new archive that I just made from a NIB copy that I got on eBay. The software is packaged in several versions, scans of the box, disks, and documentation are included, and the whole thing is zipped. DC 4.2 and 6.3.3 .img files are included.
I've just noticed this archive is infected with a virus. I have an archive of my own that I grabbed before it was infected, and includes some extras. Will try to upload it later in place of the infected one.
After fixing the problem reported here, I have re-uploaded the file to avoid more issues. It's now a DiskDup+ file, which is not harmed by the zipping process.
Does anyone want / need "Behind Dark Castle" ? It's a sage game editor for Beyond Dark Castle.
(nonetheless I was born way after that era) but made quite an impression on me, for its simplicity, and how well made they were.
I remember this one, too.
A really amazing sequel to a really amazing game. BDC builds on the gameplay established in Dark Castle and just adds more awesome elements. I mean... flying around with a helicopter back-pack while hurling fireballs at giant birds?! And yet, this somehow makes sense in what is supposedly some sort of medieval parallel universe. In this one you kneed to collect a number of magical orbs to open the magic door (which all castles seem to be equipped with in these games) but in contrast to the first installment, in BDC you can move outside of the castle and go and explore a number of excellently rendered outdoor landscapes. And, of course, there are more dungeons and more enemies to confound you and use up your precious elixir. There is slightly more depth and detail to this game than it's precursor and it stands as a classic in it's own right.

Lawsuit delays trigger gathering at Houston courthouse
http://www.chron.com/news/houston-texas/houston/article/Lawsuit-delays-trigger-gathering-at-Houston-4995736.php?cmpid=htx
More than 60 fishermen and others in the seafood business gathered Wednesday morning in downtown Houston to say they're worried about delays in a government lawsuit against four companies involved in alleged pollution of the San Jacinto River.
The predominantly Vietnamese gathering at the Harris County Civil Courthouse highlighted a case filed in December 2011 by Harris County and the State of Texas against International Paper Co., McGinnes Industrial Maintenance Corp., Waste Management Inc. and Waste Management of Texas Inc.
"We found out about the dioxin in the San Jacinto River just within the past year," said Henry Nguyen, a Houston businessman who helped organize the group's trip to the courthouse.
"A lot of people in different businesses - grocery stores, seafood restaurants, retailers want to know about dioxin," he said. "They're very worried because their families, their children eat fish. That's one of the main foods for daily life."
After speaking briefly to reporters outside the courthouse at 201 Caroline St., the group filed inside to attend a hearing in the 295th State District Court before Judge Caroline Baker.

They summoned productivity experts, asked them how to achieve their goals. We have 100 days, they said. We have promised big things.
One expert suggested one day a week with no meetings, and another suggested picking one big thing to accomplish each day before breakfast. Another recommended a clear, calm mind, and they all had a good laugh around the conference table.
What are your priorities? one expert asked, and a senior staff member slid across a contract, sold like any campaign half-truth.
These are specific, measurable and time-bound, the expert said. But they certainly aren't achievable or realistic.
She had dreamed of learning to play the flute, of writing a sonata, or maybe even a symphony. But then the coughing began, and every day, her lungs grow more raw, and she knew she needed medical care, but it would cost more than she had saved.
She waited, and felt her pants slip around her hips, felt the gap between her skin and the billowy shirts that had once been fitted.
Why didn't you come sooner? said the doctor with the saddest eyes.
There are no good choices, she said. I lost them all along the way.
Can we be saved? How easy would it be to walk up the steps and lower ourselves into the pool? How easy would it be to sink our heads below the surface of an ever-flowing river of sanity?
But if we do not accept absolution soon, if we do not wash away the sins of our choices, it will be too late. Our nation is a piece of paper that starts on top of the water, slowly taking on volume, the words blurring, then dissolving to nothingness.

Canada partly to blame for trash fracas with Philippines, say environmentalists
The federal government says it's pursuing all legal options against the now-defunct company that shipped tons of garbage to the Philippines, but experts say Canada bears part of the blame.
Government officials say the company that shipped tons of trash to the Philippines is no longer operating
Catharine Tunney · CBC News · Posted: May 31, 2019 4:00 AM ET | Last Updated: May 31, 2019
Environmentalists march outside the Canadian Embassy to demand the Canadian government to speed up the removal of several containers of garbage that were shipped to the country Tuesday, May 21, 2019, in Manila, Philippines. (The Associated Press)
The federal government says all legal options are on the table to get the company at the centre of the Philippines garbage dispute to take responsibility — but experts say Canada shares some of the blame.
Ottawa is spending $1.14 million to bring dozens of cargo containers filled with garbage and contaminated recyclables back from the Philippines to Canada for disposal.
After six years of negotiations, 69 shipping containers filled with rotting Canadian garbage were loaded onto a container ship yesterday and are now heading back to Vancouver.
As the containers make their return trip across the Pacific, the government says it's looking at its legal options against the export company Chronic Inc.
Canadian garbage on its way from Philippines to Vancouver
Canada hires company for $1.14M to bring trash back home from the Philippines
Canada hasn't issued any permits for companies to ship waste, government says
"Part of the solution around this is making sure we hold the companies responsible if they're illegally exporting waste to other countries," said Environment Minister Catherine McKenna Thursday.
"The reality is developing countries no longer want to take plastic pollution or waste from developed countries and that's exactly why we have a zero-plastic waste strategy. That's why we're going to be announcing different measures soon."
Her department is staying tight-lipped on what those legal steps might look like.
"I cannot provide more information regarding potential legal recourse except that all possible options to encourage accountability by the exporter are being pursued," said Environment Canada spokesperson Sabrina Kim in an email to CBC.
So, who should ultimately bear the cost of returning and disposing of the trash?
"It's a great question that has a complex answer," said Myra Hird, a professor in environmental studies at Queen's University.
"The simplest thing is that, yes, industry is responsible. The waste management and recycling industries are responsible.
"But the Canadian government has fallen here because they haven't taken the necessary steps to control industry in our best interests, and that's because the Canadian government is dependent upon the waste management industry to handle our waste."
'Canadian taxpayers are going to pay for this'
In Canada, waste and recycling service are — for the most part — handled by private industry. Many municipalities rely on private firms to sort and clean recyclable waste.
The Canadian containers were shipped to the Philippines in 2013 and 2014. They were falsely labelled as containers full of plastics for recycling. When Philippine customs authorities inspected the containers, they found out that about two-thirds of their contents consisted of ordinary household garbage, including electronic waste and used diapers.
We know what happens when companies get caught doing things illegal. They go bankrupt. There's no one to go after and guess who's left picking up the tab? That's the Canadian taxpayer. - NDP MP Gord Johns
Government officials say Chronic Inc. is no longer operating, making the pursuit of legal penalties more difficult.
"That means Canadian taxpayers are going to pay for this. I hope that Canadian taxpayers will be very, very irritated by this, will be very angry about this and demand that the Canadian government respond to serious questions about how it is that we are moving so much of our waste out of the country," said Hird.

Kathleen Ruff, founder of the human rights and environment public advocacy campaign RightOnCanada, said she believes the government is deliberately contributing to the confusion over who is to blame.
"It's trying to avoid its responsibility and so it has made a lot of statements which imply that the responsibility lies on the company," she said.
"This is not just something bad that happened six years ago. It was, but ... more serious than that is the fact that for six years the government of Canada, the previous government and the present government, has completely (flouted) their legal obligations."
Last month, Ruff helped to obtain a legal opinion which concluded that the garbage shipment to the Philippines put Canada in violation of the international UN Basel Convention, which forbids developed nations from sending toxic or hazardous waste to developing nations without informed consent.

How our waste winds up in places like Malaysia and the Philippines
Malaysia PM says it's 'grossly unfair' for Canada, others to ship waste
"Obviously the company acted wrongly, but UN conventions apply to governments of countries," said Ruff.
Vito Buonsante, plastics program manager with the green advocacy group Environmental Defence, said someone also apparently dropped the ball when the shipment was crossing through customs.
"If the shipment was illegally labelled then that's a matter of enforcement. So there was a problem of oversight at Canadian customs," he said.
'Slums of plastic'
The Philippines isn't the only country angry with Canada's waste disposal habits. Earlier this week, Malaysian officials took Canada to task for shipping contaminated recyclables to its shores.
In 2016 Canada amended its hazardous waste and recyclable laws, meaning the shipment sent to the Philippines in 2013 and 2014 would be prohibited today. It also says it hasn't issued permits for Canadian companies to ship trash overseas since regulations changed three years ago — raising questions about how Canadian waste keeps showing up in other countries.
Ruff said environmental conventions need to be bolstered with stronger enforcement mechanisms, similar to the international standards set for copyright and trade disputes.
"If we said, 'Oh, it's illegal to drive through a red traffic light but there will be no consequences, we won't enforce it,' we'd see a huge escalation in deaths on the road," she said. "And when we say that companies must not illegally dump waste overseas, we need to make sure that we're serious and that there are consequences in Canadian law.
"We give a free ride to countries and corporations that are polluting and destroying our environment."
NDP MP Gord Johns, who has raised the garbage issue in the House of Commons, said Canada's reputation is taking a hit over this dispute. He said Canada should stop sending its garbage to other countries — no exceptions.
Malaysia latest country returning unwanted Canadian waste
Malaysia is denouncing Canada's for what it calls irresponsible exporting of plastic waste, becoming the second Asian nation to make plans to ship Canadian trash back across the ocean, after the Philippines. 2:27
"I think Canadians all expect that we're dealing with our plastic waste and dealing with it here at home, instead of offloading it and downloading it to developing nations that don't have the infrastructure in place, and where children are literally living in slums of plastic. It's disgusting," he said.
"We know what happens when companies get caught doing things illegal. They go bankrupt," he said, adding that, since the company responsible in this case isn't around anymore, the Canadian taxpayer is stuck "picking up the tab."
Hird said consumers also share the blame. Canadians need to focus more on reducing their waste, she said, instead of recycling it.
"It's not a matter of just tightening up these regulations. It's about understanding that recycling isn't the solution to our waste problem. It's not that we just need to recycle better and recycle more. Recycling is not great for the environment," she said.

Q: How to handle multiple pages in gwt application I am working on gwt application I am using "Anchor" for this , I exactly want that without page refresh my content should be change and also browser will update the url

A: You probably want to use Activities and Places
Basically the framework lets you have Places which you can navigate to with the PlaceController. This does not trigger a full page reload but will change the current view being shown.
In fact the Place calls the matching Activity which is the "brains" of the page. The activity can then add the View to the page. The View contains as little logic as possible and is suppose to hold all of the user interface. The View should in fact be an interface which a ViemImplementation can implement therefore you can have mane Views for the same Activity (eg desktop, mobile, tablet).

A: Activies and Places needs a lot of boilerplate.
If you just want to update the URL you should use the the GWT History Mechanism.
 CodeExample:
public App implements ValueChangeHandler<String>{
    // listen for the History Change Events
    History.addValueChangeHandler(this);

    private void showPanelOne(){
        container.clear();
        container.add(new Panel());
    }

    private void showPanelTwo(){
        container.clear();
        container.add(new Panel());
    }

    public void onValueChange(ValueChangeEvent<String> event) {
        String token = event.getValue();
        if (token != null) {
            if (token.contains(Tokens.PANELONE)) {
                showPanelOne()
            } else if (token.contains(Tokens.PANELTWO)) {
                showPanelTwo()
            }
        } else {
            //show default panel or just do nothing?
        }
    }
}

public class Tokens {
    public final static String PANELONE = "!/panelone";
    public final static String PANELTWO = "!/paneltwo";
}

To change the URL just
1)call:
History.newItem(Tokens.PANELTWO)
2)use HTML in UI binder:
Show PanelOne
This will change the part after the # what will look like http://test.com/#!/panelone. The onValueChange method registers that the URL is updated and handles what happens then, for example show another window.  Hashbang(#!) is used to make the site seo friendly (see Better SEO with GWT )
An example source code of an seo friendly homepage that updates the URL can you find here.
EDIT: seo stuff and example added

RANGE ROVER SPORT, SPORTS VERSATILITY
Home/ARCHIVE, DESIGN STORY/RANGE ROVER SPORT, SPORTS VERSATILITY
With this new Sport, the Range Rover family is now complete. "It is one of our three model ranges, the luxury one", says Land Rover design chief Gerry McGovern, mentioning the other two cornerstones of the brand, leisure vehicles, which include the Discovery, and dual purpose vehicles (the Defender). "When we set off on the new Range Rover project, we immediately defined the Sport. The aim was for it to have its own individual character while being highly coherent in its formal language ", he says. (…) Although it had some success (380 thousand units sold since its launch in 2005), the first Range Rover Sport was somewhat overshadowed by the Range Rover itself. Apart from anything it was not even a true derivative of the Range Rover: although the name was the same it was based on a different floorpan, the Discovery's, whereas now the new possibilities offered by the PLA – Premium Lightweight Architecture of Jaguar-Land Rover had become available. (…)
Compared to the previous model, the new vehicle is therefore re-proportioned, with a stretched wheelbase in spite of the total length being slightly reduced. The cabin is longer while the glass-panel disproportion in side view has increased, factors which, with a contribution from the lower centre of gravity, create a much more dynamic silhouette. The front pillar converges on the centre of the wheel and the steeper angle of the windscreen together with the greater incline of the roof contribute to the drag coefficient of 0.34, an improvement of eight per cent on the previous model. "The overall look is more assertive, but at the same time more relaxed, more agile", comments McGovern. (…)
The Sport does however retain all the range's unmistakable styling cues: the floating roof resulting from the gloss black treatment of the pillars, the seamless beltline, the clam-shell bonnet, plus a number of features peculiar to this model like the classic two bar theme in the slits on the wings (…). The front and tail feature horizontal lines which stand out in the slender grille and its active flaps on to the edge of which the lights are grafted.
"Of course, just like the new Range Rover, the Sport too is related aesthetically and formally to the Evoque which is an integral part of the family", continues McGovern, mentioning one of the brand's biggest sellers of recent years. "The Evoque is the car that changed our approach to the product, when we gave design a key role." (…)
The generational leap is noticeable with equal impact in the cabin where an angular, less vertical console intersects with the dash in a T shape. "Before this the interiors were rather straight, rather rigid and economical in their overall look. We improved them in the 2010 facelift and on that occasion we decided on a decisive change for the future generation. They had to be suited to a new, more sophisticated and refined vehicle, an architectural jewel", McGovern goes on. Attention was focused on the driving position which was improved in terms of quality of design and materials but was also much less complex with just about half the number of controls and push-buttons. (…)
To make the cabin even more modern and dynamic, some technical look finish trim and linings were employed, like the real metal inserts. No less authentic are the wood, leather and artisan stitching that embellish cab space. Nor should it be forgotten that the vehicle's positioning has been raised and the Sport is part of the range of top Land Rover products. (…)

Wilderness first aid subject of Sept. 12 program
"Wilderness First Aid," a matter of critical importance to hikers, boaters, campers, hunters, anglers and other outdoor folk, will be the topic of Kirk Harris, speaking Thursday, Sept. 12, at a free, public meeting of the Clinch River Chapter, Trout Unlimited.
The meeting starts at 7 p.m. in the parish hall at St. Francis Episcopal Church, 158 W. Norris Road, Norris.
Harris is a flight paramedic and director of Continuing Healthcare and Safety Education at Roane State Community College, where he helped create wilderness medicine courses that have been taught for more than 20 years.
The subject of wilderness first aid and survival techniques "is a great and needed topic for the fly fishing enthusiast," says Harris, who loves to fly fish in the Smokies or on nearby rivers. He lives in Maryville and belongs to the Little River Chapter of Trout Unlimited.
The Clinch River Chapter's mission is to conserve and enhance the Clinch River tailwater trout fishery and its watershed, through conservation projects and through education of children and adults in aquatic natural resources. For more information, visit https://crctu.org/.
