North Point Shopping Centre
North Point shopping centre slammed by businesses over safety fears
Several business tenants have alleged not enough is being done in the shopping centre regarding safety and rent
North Point shopping centre in Bransholme
Bransholme North Point Shopping Centre has come under fire as shops inside the building complain that management "aren't friendly", with one business complaining that their firework shop hasn't undergone the correct fire safety tests despite reporting the problem numerous times.
Dan Hallett, who runs Xplosion Fireworks, alleges a multitude of problems within store, including broken lights which left his business in darkness once the sun had gone down and no formal fire alarm testing, something which highly concerned the Bransholme entrepreneur as a firework distributor.
He claims he has been reporting the lighting issue for weeks with neighbouring shops doing so for years with no response from management at the centre.
Dan said: "There are things that are supposed to have been done by the centre which haven't been done. It just leaves me in a very difficult situation – they haven't even done a fire alarm test for a fireworks shop. It should have been done; I've asked several times. They say "next week" then "next week" and nobody gets back to us."

He claims the only fire alarm testing done in store has been by an untrained, unofficial person.
"At the end of the day what she is doing is invalidating my insurance. If anything, God forbid, happened here – who's liable?"
"It's disgusting. I have to adhere to legislation to distribute fireworks. They aren't playing their part."
"The hairdressers next door isn't happy with the way they are being treated at the centre, neither are the people in the independent market right through to the betting shop. Even the customers aren't happy."
Dan Hallett, who runs Xplosion Fireworks
"I was thinking about extending my lease but through the landlord and the management there's no way. I'd rather take my business elsewhere and find a landlord that's going to work with me."
Since reporting issues further with North Point Shopping Centre, Dan claims they have terminated his lease as a result, the day of Bonfire Night.
"They are terminating our contract as of now. I don't know why this has come about. After I officially reported my concerns that problems were never resolved she came into my shop to take some fire details and I said your only coming now because I've reported you. Now they have terminated our contract", he said.

"We've got stock, we've paid for licenses, we've paid for insurances and we've paid for vehicle rentals. We're taking a major loss. They say they can't compensate for it."
Another retailer within the independent market, who wished not to be named, also spoke of their difficulties in store.
They said: "The management don't really help you. Their communication isn't very good."
"The roof leaks and it's been 'fixed' many times, but it still leaks and when it rains it pours.
Empty units in the market within North Point Shopping Centre
"Two years ago, the market was buzzing, units were full. But the rent went up."
He spoke of shops that did open in North Point and how they would only last three months due to not making enough money to reinvest, due to rent costs being so high.
The man, who despite his concerns seemed to have a passion for running his stall, also spoke of the heating being broken in the shopping centre for years, at times being able to see your own breath.
Another man in the independent market said: "Without the tenant paying their rent, the landlords wouldn't have a job, would they? They aren't very approachable. I have been here since it started, and it ran very efficiently in the beginning."
Dan, who now has no idea what to do with his stock continued to say: "The centre needs big changes. It's falling behind when you compare it to Kingswood. I think it needs someone who knows what they're doing and how to run a centre to get the footfall back in."
"We're not in the 1960s, the centre has changed, and it needs massive renovations, there are health and safety issues."
A spokesperson for North Point Shopping Centre said:
"We take the safety of our retail partners, staff and visitors extremely seriously and refute the temporary tenant's claims that fire safety checks have not been undertaken at the centre. We can also confirm that North Point Shopping Centre is fully compliant with all regulations, including the specific fire insurance requirements relating to this unit."


Do You Feel Sorry for Your Struggling Child?
Feeling sorry for a child who struggles with special needs is a common, understandable reaction from a loving parent. But — it's not going to help your kid. Here's how to adopt a new mindset that will.
As a parent, it's hard not to feel sorry for your own child sometimes. It's especially hard if your child has the extra burden of an atypical profile. Children with learning disabilities, physical disabilities, ADHD, autism, or developmental delays are additionally weighed down by the necessities of their diagnosis, whether extra tutoring, multiple therapies, socialization groups or intensive behavior training programs.
Parents may have to let go of typical fun activities, such as sports teams or school plays, in lieu of prescriptive interventions. It's emotionally draining both for child and parent. No one wants their child to be different, and yet differences seem to drive the weekly calendar, continually reminding everyone of the "special needs" of the child.
A major reason it is so difficult to keep a positive attitude when your child is atypical is because, like all parents, you worry. You worry that your child will be bullied, have no friends, never go to college or get married. That he'll suffer.
And yet, because children learn by watching their parents, it is critical to adopt a cheerful attitude. The way you see your child ultimately shapes her own self perspective. On top of everything you're challenged to do, you have to cultivate optimism, resilience and confidence in your child's outcome.
Is that hard? You bet it is. But if you keep these Dont's and Do's in mind, you'll find it easier.
Your kid is a whole person with different gifts and great potential. The special need aspect is just one aspect of your child's life.
Sometimes, parents will worry about something that might happen – but it's stemming from their own experiences or fears. Are you worried that he won't be popular because you weren't popular? Take some time to find out what your child is worried about; you might be surprised to find out that he is much more at ease than you thought.
Extra video games or unlimited treats, for example, do not have anything to do with your child's disability. Stick to "typical" rules, while allowing for occasional leniency in circumstances that really do relate to her disability.
Tough love doesn't work with atypical kids. Atypical kids are more fragile. Get to know your child and work with him consciously and gently.
Some atypical kids are prone to social isolation and depression. Teachers, even if unintentionally, can exacerbate the problem. Keep an eye on your child and have open communication so he'll feel comfortable confiding in you.
You are your child's advocate, and your child will need assertive intervention at times. This is not "babying" your child. It's part of your job as a pro-active parent of an atypical child.
Don't limit your child's activity options based on what you think she can't do. If she really wants to join that club or try that sport or take those lessons, chances are there is a way to make it happen.
Staying in the moment and noticing your amazing child as she unfolds is an important—and joyful—exercise. Take a short break from the everyday jostle to savor small moments of just being together.
Before bed, perhaps at tuck-in time, encourage your child to think about what he's thankful for. Chime in with a few ideas yourself. Practicing gratitude as a family goes a long way towards ultimate feelings of positivity and happiness.

Q: Nodejs + Twitter Streaming API not working tracking certain words I was trying to use Nodejs to capture tweets with certain words. Using twitter module, I wrote:
var util = require('util'),
  twitter = require('twitter');
var twit = new twitter({
  consumer_key: '***',
  consumer_secret: '***',
  access_token_key: '***',
  access_token_secret: '***'
});

console.log('Bot ON!');

twit.stream('statuses/filter', {'track': ['love']}, function(stream) {
  stream.on('data', function(data) {
    console.log(util.inspect(data));
  });
  stream.on('error', function(err){
    console.log(err.message);
  });
});

When I execute that code, I can track the word 'love'.
But, if I change for something like 'hyjhuolup', the streaming not show any tweet. I put that word 'hyjhuolup' in the code, tweet in my account (different than account using by the node) and nothing happens. I really don't know why. I have the same problem in other libraries like 'twit'. Anyone know what can I do? Thanks.
Edit 1:
I already try this: Cannot retrieve tweets based on hashtag with nodejs but no success.

I just applied for a bridging visa (BOWP) last week and must admit, I found the whole process quite confusing, if it wasn't for the good people who are members of the Irish & Applying for Canadian PR Facebook page, I would have been completely lost. As is usual with CIC, nothing is very well explained on their website, so I decided to put together an easy step-by-step guide to help others with the BOWP process.
Right now, processing times for online BOWPs are 38 days and paper applications are taking 93 days. You can check processing times here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/ Usually, people will wait until a couple of weeks before their work permit expires to submit the bridging visa application. Once your bridging visa application is received before your work permit expires, then you automatically go onto Implied Status – again, this is so you can continue to work until you have a decision on your Bridging Visa. I submitted our bridging visa applications (online) last Thursday (April 21st) and our work permits expire on May 5th. Also, it's handy to note here that you can also submit a bridging visa application online for your common-law partner.
How do I apply for a bridging visa? As I've already mentioned above, you can apply online through your CIC account, or you can submit your application by mail. Many people chose the one with the slowest processing time to give them longer on Implied Status – especially if they know their bridging visa application is going to be denied. I submitted mine online and if that's what you're doing, there are two options. Option 1 is to use the "Come to Canada Wizard", you can find that tool here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/ctc-vac/cometocanada.asp answer the questionnaire and then you'll be given a personal reference code which you then input into your CIC account, or option 2 is to log into your CIC account, and under the "What would you like to do today" section, choose apply for a visitor visa, study and/or work permit. At this point it will ask you for your personal reference code, if you don't have one (I didn't) then look under "I do not have a personal reference code" and click on determine your eligibility and apply online for a visitor visa, and/r work permit. It will then guide you through the questionnaire.
A few things to note about the questionnaire, as it can be slightly confusing, and if you don't answer some questions in a particular way, it won't lt you apply for the bridging visa. When it asks "What would you like to do in Canada?" you should say work, and not move there, as I did at first. For how long do you plan to stay in Canada, you should answer temporarily – more than 6 months, and not permanently (I also made that mistake the first time round). The next tricky question is when is asks about your current immigration status in Canada, you need to say here that you are a worker, rather than a temporary resident permit holder (which is exactly what we are, but who knows why CIC make these things so confusing). Then you will be directed to a page which lists lots of different situations broken into three groups and you have to answer "yes" or "no". Make sure you answer yes under the section which contains the following statement "I applied for permanent residence to an office in Canada and was determined to be eligible for permanent resident status (first stage approval)". Even if the review of eligibility is still at "review in progress" for your PR app (as mine is) because if you say no, it won't let you proceed with the BOWP application.
Once you've answered the questionnaire, the option to apply for a visitor visa and/or work permit will disappear, so if you answered any questions wrong, and it didn't guide you to a checklist of required documents, then delete that application and start again. Once you answer all the questions in the questionnaire, you will be given a list of documents that you have to submit, most of them will be things you already submitted as part of your PR application; copy of passport, digital picture, proof of your medical exam, statutory declaration of common-law relationship (if you're common law). If you are common-law then you'll have to upload Form IMM5713: Use if a Family Member Representative for Online Applications. You will also be required to submit Form IMM5710: Application to change my conditions, extend my stay or remain in Canada as a Worker. This form again asks for a lot of information that you already supplied as part of your PR application such as education, work history, and to note any other countries you've lived for more than 6 months in the past 5 years. There is also space to upload a letter of explanation, I uploaded my AOR for PR here. The fees you pay for the bridging visa are $155 for the work permit and a $100 fee for an open work permit holder fee.
I hope this helps when applying for your bridging visa, and if you're not already a member, join the Irish & Applying for Canadian PR Facebook page – it is a life saver!

I Hope Liz Cheney Wins, but I Couldn't Vote for Her
Cheney is appealing for Democratic crossover votes in today's Wyoming primary, but she's still a right-wing zealot.
By John Nichols
Representative Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) presides over a hearing of the House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the U.S. Capitol in the Cannon House Office Building on July 21 in Washington, D.C. (Photo by Win McNamee / Getty Images)
In the Coal Creek Coffee shop in Laramie, Wyo., a few weeks ago, a woman recognized me and struck up a conversation about what has become the most closely watched congressional race in the United States. She explained that she was a Democrat but that she would be crossing over to vote in Wyoming's Republican primary to cast a ballot for embattled Representative Liz Cheney.
"It's a way to push back against Trump," she said. "He wants to get rid of Liz, well, I'm going to vote for her."
That's not an uncommon sentiment among Wyoming Democrats. As I wrote in my Nation piece on the primary in which Cheney's reelection prospects have been dimmed by the former president's enthusiastic campaigning on behalf of challenger Harriet Hageman, Wyoming allows so-called crossover voting. A lot of people who don't regularly vote in Republican primaries are planning to cast a GOP ballot today for the incumbent representative who has become the Republican Party's most high-profile critic of Trump's incitement of insurrection on January 6, 2021, and the general lawlessness of the former reality TV star who has replaced Ronald Reagan as the Grand Old Party's icon.
Cheney, a lifelong Republican with a record of fierce partisanship, has been reaching out to Democrats and encouraging them to briefly register as Republicans and cast a ballot for her. This isn't an embrace of bipartisanship on Cheney's part. It's practical politics. Cheney's far behind in the polls and no one thinks she can win the Republican primary with the votes of the apparently very small number of "constitutionalist-conservative" Republicans who approve of her work on the House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the U.S. Capitol. She needs voters like John Robinson, a prominent Wyoming civil rights lawyer, who told me that after watching the January 6 Committee hearings, he decided to go public with a message that, though a lifelong Democracy, he would be casting a GOP ballot for Cheney.
"Our republic hangs in the balance." Robinson explained. "The stakes could not be greater."
Can Trump Oust Liz Cheney From Congress?
The stakes are high. Trump is consolidating his hold on the GOP—as recent primary results from Arizona, Michigan, Wisconsin, and other states confirm. Wyoming is what Politico refers to as the latest stop on "Trump's scorched-earth revenge tour" against Republicans who voted to impeach him after the January 6 insurrection. Four of the 10 anti-Trump Republicans in the House have decided not to seek reelection in GOP primaries they were likely to lose; three were defeated by Trump-backed challengers; and now Cheney—the most prominent member of the group—is fighting to hold on to the seat once occupied by her father, former vice president Dick Cheney. If Cheney loses, Trump will be that much stronger as a force within the GOP and as a likely bidder for the presidency in 2024.
I'm in the camp that would like to see Trump's ambitions get tripped up in Wyoming. And I have no problem with Wyoming Democrats—a distinct minority of the electorate in a state that hasn't backed a Democrat for president since Lyndon Johnson won in 1964—choosing to send a crossover message. I've always embraced the historic progressive commitment to open primaries, in which voters are free to take the ballot of the party with the most interesting races.
But I would have a hard time voting for Cheney. While I very much respect her vote to impeach Trump, and while her work on the January 6 Committee has been exemplary, I'm not comfortable taking her side in the fight for the soul of the Republican Party. I've covered this fight for many years, both as a reporter and a historian. I've celebrated the radical Republicans who formed the party more than 168 years ago in Ripon, Wis. I've written favorably about 20th-century Republicans who stood on the right side of history. And I've praised Republicans like former Massachusetts governor Bill Weld who have challenged not just Trump but the broader drift toward authoritarianism within the GOP.
That's where my problem with Cheney comes in. She's not a maverick Republican who is breaking with her party's cruel policies on economic, social, and foreign-policy issues. Along with Dick Cheney, with whom she worked closely on political projects before she decided to move to Wyoming and run for Congress, Liz Cheney for decades has been in the forefront of the fight to make the GOP an extreme right-wing party. As a political operative and more recently as a leading Republican in Congress, Cheney established herself as a neoconservative warmonger whose crude attacks on immigrants, Muslims, and progressives carried the same venom as those of the most extreme members of her caucus—and of the 45th president, whose election in 2016 and reelection bid in 2020 she enthusiastically supported.

Big Pharma Greed's Knows No Bounds
Before their recent falling out, Cheney voted with Trump 93 percent of time. And when she broke with the former president, it was often to take more extreme positions. Cheney's an outspoken critic of abortion rights, a vigorous foe of efforts to control gun violence, and an ardent advocate for cutting social programs, reducing taxes on the rich, and balancing the budget in favor of the Pentagon. Before the 2020 election, Cheney used a March 2019 Meet the Press appearance to decry Democrats as "the party of anti-Semitism, the party of infanticide, the party of socialism." Cheney claimed that Kamala Harris "sounds just like Karl Marx." And her attacks on Representatives Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) and Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) were so vicious that Jim Zogby, the founder and president of the Arab American Institute, told Cheney that her rhetoric "smacks either of a deep-seated anti-Arab/Muslim bigotry or crass politics designed to prey on the bigotry of your 'base.' In either case it's disgraceful. Your party's been playing this game for a decade. Shame."
Zogby's reference to "playing this game for a decade" is spot-on. The Republican Party has certainly degenerated under Trump's dangerous leadership. But that degeneration began long before Trump announced his presidential bid in 2015. It's often said these days that Abraham Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, and Dwight Eisenhower would be unwelcome in the contemporary Republican Party. But the same thing was said when the Cheneys were employing big lies to promote an illegal and immoral war with Iraq, a bloated military-industrial complex, tax cuts for the rich, and the Tea Party approach to domestic policy.
Trump was able to take charge of the Republican Party because it had already embraced so much of what he stood for. The line should have been drawn long before Trump came along. Instead, Dick Cheney, Liz Cheney, and others like them created a Republican Party that was ripe for Trumpism.
It's good that Liz Cheney and a handful of conservative Republicans have finally objected to the worst excesses of Donald Trump and his minions. I respect the motivations of Wyoming Democrats who will vote for Cheney today in order to push back against Trump. And I sincerely hope that the Republican Party can throw off the extremism that has claimed its soul. But that extremism has deep roots. I'm just not satisfied that replacing Trumpism with Cheneyism is a sufficient exorcism.

A Women's History Month blog from EBASE ED Kate O'Hara.
Since my daughter was born five years ago, I've become increasingly aware that the issues of low-wage workers are women's issues. From equal and decent pay to affordable childcare to paid family leave to predictable schedules, there is an unequal distribution of resources and support for low-wage women and mothers – the overwhelming majority of whom are people of color.
However, I have been lucky enough to work with so many fierce women warriors and mothers who are standing up and shifting our economy into something which values everyone's identity, dignity, and contributions.
Young moms like Urban Peace Movement leader Rayna Smith, who lost her mom to gun violence, is raising her two year old daughter in a community of youth activists committed to peace and justice.
Fearless women like fast food worker Guadalupe Salazar, who has courageously stood up against nasty bosses despite the risk of retaliation and deportations.
Bold leaders like ironworker Joyce Guy, who broke the mold on your typical construction worker, and helped build the Bay Bridge. She now supports local workers access good-paying construction careers through the West Oakland Job Resource Center.
Experienced fighters like Communities for a Better Environment leader Esther Goolsby, who reminds me that organizing is as much about our connection with each other as it is about achieving the task at hand.
Like these women, I know that fighting for justice is like caring for kids: it is a marathon and not a sprint. Being an organizer has made me a better parent and being a mom has made a better organizer. I can juggle more tasks into fewer hours. Dealing with developers was good prep for negotiating with a toddler. And tracking kids' potty training resembles tracking turn out for actions (although I drew the line at using oversized butcher papers for this.)
But more important than that, the reality is that both care-taking and organizing are rooted in an intense love for those around us. Both push me to be present, to listen well, to meet others where they are, and to keep my heart soft.
As a feminist, I believe in the radical idea that women are people, and that we all deserve a quality of life, dignity on the job, and respect in the community. I'm thankful this Women's History Month to honor a powerful legacy of women warriors who are creating a world in which we can all live and thrive.

I Take This Woman (1940)
directed by Josef von Sternberg, W.S. Van Dyke
featuring Spencer Tracy, Hedy Lamarr, Veree Teasdale, Kent Taylor, Laraine Day
This soapy drama stars Hedy Lamarr as a would be model who meets a research doctor en route to the US from Europe. They meet when Dr. Spencer Tracy prevents her from taking a suicidal plunge from the upper decks of the ocean liner. It seems that Lamarr had been involved with married man Kent Taylor. When he reneged on his promise to divorce his wife Mona Barrie, she decided to end it all. Finding her extraordinarily beautiful, the doctor suggests she join him in his research. The two end up at a slum clinic and it doesn't take long for the doctor to fall completely in love with her. He convinces her to marry him and soon after the wedding, he exchanges life in the clinic for an upscale practice uptown. Servicing the rich is lucrative and soon he has provided his high maintenance wife with a luxurious life. Unfortunately for him, she appreciates his work and sacrifices not a whit, and as soon as she can attempts to respark a romance with Taylor whom she has never stopped loving. Fortunately for the doctor, Lamarr eventually comes to her senses and marital bliss ensues. This film had a troubled history with all of it due to Louis B. Mayer's obsession with making Lamarr the brightest star in the MGM galaxy. Originally the film was directed by Joseph von Sternberg, but he grew frustrated and tired by Mayer's constant interference and quit the film as did the next director, Frank Borzage. As a result an enormous amount of footage was discarded. Finally reliable W.S. Van Dyke was placed on the production and it was completed. Unfortunately, despite all that effort, the film bombed at the box office. Sandra Brennan, Rovi Read Less

I have a confession to make. It took me forty years to experience the exquisite epicurean substance that is SPAM. I realize that in some sectors of the foodie world (aka the high falutin' snobbery circles of haute cuisine) this might be an advantage. I realize that in other worlds (aka the ultra hip and trendy hot pot universes that Roy Choi dwells within) this might be sacrilege. I also realize that I am really not in either world, but that the main thing that has kept me from trying the famed, square lump of mystery meat has been a traumatic overdosing of other mystery meats in my lifetime.
Remember the Vienna sausage? There was actually a time in my single mother, female toddler raising life where those plump little mushy fingers reminiscent of baby hot dogs equaled dinner. And what about devilled ham? That strange pink concoction in a can that was slightly hammy and slightly smoky that made for a filling meal spread lavishly on wheat bread or as a white trash appetizer on enough saltine crackers to sate a young family. We all have our less than savory memories of times in our college years or early twenties where budgets for food were slim enough to justify these strange and unseemly purchases thus my reason for staying away from anything resembling meat in anything resembling a can, even tuna.
So imagine my surprise when I started dating the Cute Gardener whose food taste is nearly impeccable (nearly being the key word, just like mine) and opened his cupboards nosily one day to spy a slew of SPAM cans sitting in a neat and orderly row. Imagine my deeper surprise the first time he ever made me his version of fried rice (a hybrid of Asian and Hawaiian) incorporating yummy, crunchy bits of starchiness with fresh green peas and carrots, a buttery dash of soy and the tiniest bits of salty SPAM. I fell in love instantly with the odd culinary delight and have consistently begged him to make me something incorporating its magic ever since.
Recently I was delighted by an open-faced egg sandwich on slightly toasted sourdough with the slimmest slices of SPAM, slivers of purple string beans and the last remaining kernels of sweet corn for the summer from our garden. Realizing that I really like this product and wanting to have some justification for it in my non-boxed, bagged, canned or packaged manifesto-wielding food world, I researched what SPAM was made out of and discovered: pork shoulder meat (! one of my favorite things), ham, salt, water, modified potato starch as a binder, sugar, and sodium nitrate (basically a salt) as a preservative. I think I can continue eating the CG's fabulous concoctions with this product guilt free and with my foodie integrity intact. In moderation of course, like all things pleasurable.

I am envisioning this blog post as a romance novel titled My Secret Shame… with a bodice-ripping cover illustration featuring you, the CG and a little can of SPAM.
My Secret Shame indeed! You're so brave you've admitted you love spam. I hope you don't get trolled by foodies!
We all have culinary quirks, well done for sharing. You're a trail blazer!
What can I say? I have always been a rebel. Thanks for reading!
I always think of the SPAM sketch in Monty Python.. ""Lobster Thermidor aux crevettes with a Mornay sauce, garnished with truffle pâté, brandy and a fried egg on top and Spam"! But even though I am a vegetarian, I get it. As a kid, two of my favorite things were Vienna sausages and Deviled Ham!
Ha ha, Linnet, you gave me a great laugh for my morning. I love Monty Python!
Now I know why my beloved son-in-law likes Spam.
Yes I think it is more of an Asian-American and Hawaiian staple.
40 years? That's a whole lot time between you and Spam. I have that OD relationship with it – it was served a little too much growing up in Montana at my grandparents house.
You and CG certainly have fun and eccentric tastebuds!

Do Employers Have to Continue to Provide Childcare Vouchers During Maternity Leave?
Posted on May 19, 2016 at 1:13 pm.
During ordinary and additional maternity leave an employee is entitled to the benefit of all of the terms and conditions of her employment that would have applied had she not been absent, except those terms relating to her "remuneration". There has been some debate in law as to whether provision of childcare vouchers is provision of "remuneration", such that it ought not to be continued during maternity leave.
In the recent case of Peninsula Business Services Ltd v Donaldson, the Employment Appeal Tribunal ("EAT") decided that childcare vouchers provided under a salary sacrifice scheme are classed as part of the employee's "remuneration", meaning that vouchers do not have to be provided during maternity leave. It is, therefore, neither an unlawful detriment, nor discriminatory, for the employer to cease to provide childcare vouchers during a period of maternity leave. Pam Sidhu, Head of the Employment Team, discusses the case and implications for employers.
The employer in this case operated a salary sacrifice scheme whereby employees could sacrifice part of their gross salary in exchange for childcare vouchers. The terms of the scheme included a clause that membership would be suspended during maternity leave. The employee refused to accept that term, believing it to be discriminatory. The Employment Tribunal decided that those on maternity leave were entitled to "non-pay" benefits, and that the employer had acted unlawfully in requiring employees to agree to forgo such benefits as a condition of joining the scheme.
The employer appealed against the Employment Tribunal decision that it had indirectly discriminated on the ground of sex, and subjected her to a detriment for taking maternity leave, based on the terms on which it operated its childcare voucher scheme.
EAT Decision
The employer appealed the decision on the basis that the childcare voucher scheme was not a benefit, but was a salary diversion. The appeal was allowed. The EAT found that childcare vouchers were not a "non-cash benefit", but were "remuneration", so they did not have to be maintained during maternity leave.
The EAT commented that from a public policy point of view, to require the continued provision of vouchers during maternity leave would have the effect of producing a windfall benefit for an employee, at the same time as imposing a cost upon employers and discouraging them from offering such a scheme.
Pam Sidhu comments: "For some time, there has been uncertainty regarding how childcare vouchers should be treated under the maternity regulations: whether they should be classed as remuneration or a non-cash benefit which should be preserved during maternity leave. This case has provided some much-needed clarity on the matter and overruled HMRC guidance which expressed that childcare vouchers were non-cash benefits rather than "remuneration", even if provided by way of salary sacrifice. Although the obligation to maintain terms and conditions during maternity leave does not extend to remuneration, it remains the case that where childcare vouchers are provided on top of salary (without a salary sacrifice), they are not part of the employee's remuneration and must therefore be continued".

The big banks and executive remuneration – where to from here?
At its annual general meeting yesterday, 33.4 per cent of ANZ's investors rejected its executive remuneration report – well over the 25 per cent threshold required for a first strike. The ANZ Board is a relatively low scorer compared to Westpac where 64.2 per cent of investors rejected their bank's remuneration report at the annual general meeting last week. The prize, however, for the biggest backlash against a remuneration report goes to NAB which scored a record 88.4 per cent rejection by its investors yesterday. The AFR called the result "staggering"; "stinging" was how The Australian put it. Just for comparison purposes, AMP copped a 62.2 per cent vote against its remuneration report earlier this year.
So what can be done by these three banks to avoid a second strike next year? Cutting back on excessive executive remuneration may go some way to appeasing the banks' investors. After all, the Commonwealth Bank did not receive a strike after it cut out short—term bonuses for senior executives. But will this be enough? It makes one wonder how much time will be spent around the boardroom table dealing with this issue in preparation for next year's AGMs – and at the expense of what else?

This tutorial provides you with a foundation for working with Adobe Premiere Pro media. It is the second lesson in the Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 Digital Classroom book. For more Adobe Premiere Pro training options, visit AGI's Premiere Pro Classes.
Media Management is the organization or management of the media you work with in a project. There are two equally important aspects to Media Management. The first is how you manage the media on your hard drives, and the second is how you organize the different media references that you import into Premiere Pro.
To ensure portability, performance, and security, we highly recommend that you store media on an external hard disk drive. The two standard connection types for external hard drives are FireWire (400 and 800) and USB 2.0. Most video editors recommend a FireWire drive because of its higher sustained bus speed, but any type of drive works for your projects.
The files that you will work with to complete the lessons in this book are organized into a single folder called Media Library. Within that folder, there are additional folders for each individual project. In each respective project folder, there are folders that separate the different types of media (video, audio, and still images) you will use. This type of hierarchical structure is also used to keep the project panel organized and makes it easier to locate the media you want to add to the Timeline panel.

'Oslo': No more than a show
'A Trojan horse placed by the Palestinians at Israel's doorstep in order to open it to Palestinian national demands.'

On the stages of Broadway a play called "Oslo" by playwright T.J. Rogers is currently playing, and describes the meetings that took place behind the Israeli government's back in a flattering way. Those unofficial representatives from Israel were certainly convinced that they were doing an important service to their country and were promising a lasting peace - and there was no doubt about the sincerity of their belief - but unfortunately they were completely wrong about their partner's true intentions and did not take into account the potential destructive consequences.
The slogan "Peace Now" sounds hollow today, like Chamberlain's statement which promised, after the signing of the Munich Agreement, "Peace in our time." While the Israelis saw the outline of a gradual process of resolving the conflict with the Palestinians on the basis of mutual recognition between the State of Israel and a future Palestinian state and an immediate cessation of terror, in the eyes of the PLO it was a means of redeeming the organization from its exile in Tunis, to which it was expelled after its expulsion from Lebanon in the first Lebanon war - in addition to the official recognition it received as the sole recognized representative of the Palestinian people thus preventing the emergence of any other leadership. In coming stages, they hoped, a final step would be taken to realize its ultimate objective, namely, the total destruction of the State of Israel. The leaders of the PLO also expected that the emerging agreement would lead to a split in the unity of the Israeli public (as indeed happened). Faisal Husseini, the unofficial "Foreign Minister" in the Palestinian Authority, told the Egyptian newspaper Al-Arabi that the Oslo Accords would be "a Trojan horse placed by the Palestinians at Israel's doorstep in order to open it to Palestinian national demands."
The initiators of the talks in the Norwegian capital were Terje Roed-Larsen, a diplomat and sociologist by profession, and his wife Mona Yol, also an experienced diplomat and politician from the Norwegian Socialist Party - both of whom had experience and connections in the Middle East. Their intentions were also fundamentally honest - and it was even possible to agree in principle with their explanation that on such a charged and complicated subject, informal and non-binding personal contacts should be dealt with gradually and informally. But they, too, were apparently unaware of the trap that their approach had placed on the Israeli side.
Shimon Peres, the foreign minister in the Rabin government, and who was introduced to the issue at an early stage, adopted the Oslo agreement enthusiastically and in his mind saw the agreement as the opening for a "new Middle East." Rabin, who learned of the contacts apparently only later and at first even ordered them stopped, was more reserved, but in the end was convinced for various reasons to cooperate with the Oslo people. However, according to hearsay, he expressed himself on one occasion that he "was forced to adopt Oslo as one is forced to adopt an illegitimate child," and apparently came to the conclusion that Arafat cheated him.
It seems that Treje Roed-Larsen, the producer and director of the talks, has also cooled over time, and although he initiated the writing of the play now being performed in New York, it is not clear whether he still believes that his work, in light of the experience gained since then, justified the renunciation of other ways of promoting a solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. For this you will have to judge not the criticism of New York theater, but history.

IMPORTANT HIGH COURT RULING DEEMS REFUSAL OF FAMILY REUNIFICATION TO SPOUSES/CIVIL PARTNERS OF REFUGEES/SUBSIDIARY PROTECTION HOLDERS UNCONSTITUTIONAL
19th July 2019 /in Uncategorized /by berkeleysolicitors
The recent High Court judgment of Mr Justice Barrett in the joined cases of A. vs The Minister for Justice and Equality and S. and S. vs. The Minister for Justice and Equality has held as unconstitutional the statutory provision excluding family reunification rights to the spouses and civil partners of refugees whose marriage took place after the granting of refugee status.
This is a very favorable development for the holders of refugee status or subsidiary protection who wish to apply for family reunification for their spouse/civil partner but who were not married at the time that they made their application for protection in the State.
These joined cases raised the question, as to whether s. 56(9)(a) of the International Protection Act 2015 is unconstitutional and/or incompatible with the European Convention of Human Rights.
The context of this judgements is that previously, under the Refugee Act 1996, now repealed, refugees were eligible for family reunification with their spouse whether or not they had been married at the time at which they made their application for protection in the State.
Under the more recent International Protection Act 2015, section 56(9)(a) and (b) provides that holders of refugee status and subsidiary protection are only eligible for family reunification with their spouse where their marriage took place prior to the date of their application for protection in the State.
In his judgment, Mr Justice Barrett declared that Section 56(9)(a) is "repugnant to the provisions of the Constitution" and is therefore "invalid and does not have the force of law."
The Court found that there was no objective and reasonable justification in this context for a differentiation in treatment between couples married pre-flight to those married post-flight, referring to the European Court of Human Rights case Hode and Abdi v. UK, in which that Court had objected to differentiation in treatment on the basis of the time of marriage.
The Judge went on to state that although it was no longer necessary as the section had already been declared unconstitutional, the court would also have declared that Section 56(9)(a) is incompatible with the State's obligation under Article 14 ECHR read together with Article 8 ECHR, the latter protecting the rights to family and private life.
The Court in this ruling has notably departed from the judgment of RC or VB v. The Minister for Justice [2019] IEHC 55, which dealt with a similar question.
This judgment has significant implications for refugees and beneficiaries of subsidiary protection who have applied for their spouse or civil partner to be granted family reunification and who have been refused on the basis that their marriage took place after they made their application for protection in the State.
The judgement also opens to the door for refugees who failed to submit an application for family reunification for their spouse or civil partner under the 2015 Act, on the basis that they believed they were not eligible under Section 56 (9) (a).
If you believe this may affect you please contact the office with your questions and we will seek to assist you in the next steps.

THE IMPLICATIONS OF THE JONES CASE FOR 'RECKONABLE RESIDENCE' FOR... UPDATE ON CITIZENSHIP APPLICATIONS FOLLOWING THE JONES RULING


In this class we focused on app development, more specifically designing and developing a class catalog app. This app would allow Art Institute students to login, see what their current schedule is, what classes they've taken, what classes they still need to take, and everything needed to help them register for new classes.
While the goal was to get it up and running on a mobile platform, 11 weeks simply wasn't long enough. Still, it was a great learning experience seeing as I worked with a lot a programs I've never used before.

Vicinity of Mount Robson, British Columbia
George Kinney
Goodair Peak
Feature type: Peak (2)
Province: British Columbia

Longitude: 118°23'00"

Official name listed at BC Geographical Names
Jasper Park warden Percy Hamilton Goodair (died 1928) was killed by a grizzly bear and buried near his cabin in the Tonquin Valley. Goodair was an educated Englishman who traveled extensively in South Africa and Australia before coming to Jasper and joining the warden service.
In September 1928, Goodair failed to contact Park headquarters for over a week. Other park wardens went in to search. Their dog found Goodair's snow-covered body lying on a trail near the cabin. He had claw marks on his face and a handkerchief stuffed under his arm in an attempt to stop bleeding from an opened artery.
An attendee who had met Goodair at the 1926 Alpine Club of Canada camp in the Tonquin Valley stated, "So died, where he would have liked to, one of the most delightful and cultivated gentlemen I have known. He was in no sense a climber, although he could mount the hills faster than I care to do; but he had an intense love of the mountains surpassed by no man. You know the setting of his Maccarib Creek Cabin faces towards the Ramparts. Of that glorious outlook he never tired. We spent five nights with him and he would call us our again and again to see the magnificent and ever-changing light effects on the peaks."
In Goodair's files was a letter stating, "If anything happens to me I want to be buried in the mountains." The wardens made a coffin with floor-boards from the cabin veranda. A number of Goodair's Masonic brothers went in with the doctor and police, who were holding an inquest, and conducted the funeral. "He was one of our best wardens and loved the outside life and disliked the town," said a Parks report.

Robert B. Nemiroff (October 29, 1929, New York City – July 18, 1991) was an American theater producer and songwriter, and the husband of Lorraine Hansberry.

Nemiroff was a book editor and a music publisher, as well as an award-winning songwriter. With co-writer Burt D'Lugoff, he composed the 1956 hit song "Cindy, Oh Cindy", and "Fifteen", the theme for the movie The World, the Flesh, and the Devil.

He married Lorraine Hansberry in 1953, which Hansberry often cited as an important creative factor in the genesis of her play A Raisin in the Sun. Although the couple separated in 1957 and divorced in 1962, their professional relationship lasted until Hansberry's death from cancer in January 1965. In 1967, he married Jewell Handy Gresham, a playwright.

Nemiroff devoted much of his life to editing and promoting the work of Hansberry, who had named him as her literary executor. He was the executive producer of the 1989 PBS production of A Raisin in the Sun, and produced and co-wrote the 1973 Broadway musical Raisin, based on A Raisin in the Sun.

Awards and honors
Nemiroff won the Tony Award for producing Raisin.

So here i am sat at panto reharsals. The first get together and read through on our feet. To get a feel for our charaters, and in true acting group fashion we only have half a cast!
This has always been the way with us, as i have said in previous blogs we tend to be more soical than actors. But we always put on a bloody good show!
Panto is a season for us to mess about and be kids twice a week till about a month before opening night and then we "knuckle down" and we put on a show.
Its all gravy at the moment.Once again the Duff forget her line more regularly than everyone else and Jing, Tony and I are always being told off for messing about along with the Karate Kid.
The dames are so funny. We have one senior actor and one junior actor playing the ugly sisters. They are such a good match and such a giggle to act with.
I have be struggling with confidence and really being asked to go as i feel i am being watched the whole freaking time (not as in a audience way but in a gossipy bitchy way) But that will get better with time. I haven't been in panto for about 4 years so it will take some time!
I did have a laugh last week the woman playing Danidi tried to hide me in the back and well it didnt work as the director put me right at the front! LOL she was not happy!
Jing, Tony and I have been having a laugh to get the work done an then we sod off to the Rainbow bar to catch up with Pianoman and our other friends.
I am worried about the cofidence thing but hey you never know I may just be panicing about nothing!!!
I have a duet with Jing, which I still haven't sorted the lyrics out to yet (yes Jing I will go do it as soon as I finish this blog!) We also are needing to add more slapstickbut again once our confidence grow and we stop relying on our scripts it will happen I am sure of it!!!
