## 1.10.0 (2016-04-22)

  * You can now opt-in to caching of SSH's known_hosts file for a speed boost
    when deploying to a large fleet of servers. Refer to the
    [README](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/tree/v1.10.0#known-hosts-caching) for
    details. We plan to turn this on by default in a future version of SSHKit.

    @mikz

## 1.9.0

**Refer to the 1.9.0.rc1 release notes for a full list of new features, fixes,
and potentially breaking changes since SSHKit 1.8.1.** There are no changes
since 1.9.0.rc1.

## 1.9.0.rc1

### Potentially breaking changes

  * The SSHKit DSL is no longer automatically included when you `require` it.
    **This means you  must now explicitly `include SSHKit::DSL`.**
    See [PR #219](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/219) for details.
    @beatrichartz
  * `SSHKit::Backend::Printer#test` now always returns true
    [PR #312](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/312) @mikz

### New features

  * `SSHKit::Formatter::Abstract` now accepts an optional Hash of options
    [PR #308](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/308) @mattbrictson
  * Add `SSHKit::Backend.current` so that Capistrano plugin authors can refactor
    helper methods and still have easy access to the currently-executing Backend
    without having to use global variables.
  * Add `SSHKit.config.default_runner` options that allows to override default command runner.
    This option also accepts a name of the custom runner class.
  * The ConnectionPool has been rewritten in this release to be more efficient
    and have a cleaner internal API. You can still completely disable the pool
    by setting `SSHKit::Backend::Netssh.pool.idle_timeout = 0`.
    @mattbrictson @byroot [PR #328](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/328)

### Bug fixes

  * make sure working directory for commands is properly cleared after `within` blocks
    [PR #307](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/307)
    @steved
  * display more accurate string for commands with spaces being output in `Formatter::Pretty`
    [PR #304](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/304)
    @steved
    [PR #319](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/319) @mattbrictson
  * Fix a race condition experienced in JRuby that could cause multi-server
    deploys to fail. [PR #322](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/322)
    @mattbrictson

    [README](README.md#deprecation-warnings),
    [PR #258](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/258)
    @robd
  * Quote environment variable values.
    [PR #250](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/250)
    @Sinjo - Chris Sinjakli
  * Simplified formatter hierarchy.
    [PR #248](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/248)
    @robd
    * `SimpleText` formatter now extends `Pretty`, rather than duplicating.
  * Hide ANSI color escape sequences when outputting to a file.
    [README](README.md#output-colors),
    [Issue #245](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/issues/245),
    [PR #246](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/246)
    @robd
    * Now only color the output if it is associated with a tty,
      or the `SSHKIT_COLOR` environment variable is set.
  * Removed broken support for assigning an `IO` to the `output` config option.
    [Issue #243](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/issues/243),
    [PR #244](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/244)
    @robd
    * Use `SSHKit.config.output = SSHKit::Formatter::SimpleText.new($stdin)` instead
  * Added support for `:interaction_handler` option on commands.
    [PR #234](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/234),
    [PR #242](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/242)
    @robd
  * Removed partially supported `TRACE` log level.
    [2aa7890](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/commit/2aa78905f0c521ad9f697e7a4ed04ba438d5ee78)
    @robd
  * Add support for the `:strip` option to the `capture` method and strip by default on the `Local` backend.
    [PR #239](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/239),
    [PR #249](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/249)
    @robd
    * The `Local` backend now strips by default to be consistent with the `Netssh` one.
    * This reverses change [7d15a9a](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/commit/7d15a9aebfcc43807c8151bf6f3a4bc038ce6218) to the `Local` capture API to remove stripping by default.
    * If you require the raw, unstripped output, pass the `strip: false` option: `capture(:ls, strip: false)`
  * Simplified backend hierarchy.
    [PR #235](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/235),
    [PR #237](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/237)
    @robd
    * Moved duplicate implementations of `make`, `rake`, `test`, `capture`, `background` on to `Abstract` backend.
    * Backend implementations now only need to implement `execute_command`, `upload!` and `download!`
    * Removed `Printer` from backend hierarchy for `Local` and `Netssh` backends (they now just extend `Abstract`)
    * Removed unused `Net::SSH:LogLevelShim`
  * Removed dependency on the `colorize` gem. SSHKit now implements its own ANSI color logic, with no external dependencies. Note that SSHKit now only supports the `:bold` or plain modes. Other modes will be gracefully ignored. [#263](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/issues/263)
  * New API for setting the formatter: `use_format`. This differs from `format=` in that it accepts options or arguments that will be passed to the formatter's constructor. The `format=` syntax will be deprecated in a future release. [#295](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/issues/295)
  * SSHKit now immediately raises a `NameError` if you try to set a formatter that does not exist. [#295](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/issues/295)
  * Fix error message when the formatter does not exist. [#301](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/301)

## 1.7.1

  * Fix a regression in 1.7.0 that caused command completion messages to be removed from log output. @mattbrictson

## 1.7.0

  * Update Vagrantfile to use multi-provider Hashicorp precise64 box - remove URLs. @townsen
  * Merge host ssh_options and Netssh defaults @townsen
    Previously if host-level ssh_options were defined the Netssh defaults
    were ignored.
  * Merge host ssh_options and Netssh defaults
  * Fixed race condition where output of failed command would be empty. @townsen
    Caused random failures of `test_execute_raises_on_non_zero_exit_status_and_captures_stdout_and_stderr`
    Also fixes output handling in failed commands, and generally buggy output.
  * Remove override of backtrace() and backtrace_locations() from ExecuteError. @townsen
    This interferes with rake default behaviour and creates duplicate stacktraces.
  * Allow running local commands using `on(:local)`
  * Implement the upload! and download! methods for the local backend

## 1.6.0

  * Fix colorize to use the correct API (@fazibear)
  * Lock colorize (sorry guys) version at >= 0.7.0

## 1.6.0 (Yanked, because of colorize.)

  * Force dependency on colorize v0.6.0
  * Add your entries here, remember to credit yourself however you want to be
    credited!
  * Remove strip from capture to preserve whitespace. Nick Townsend
  * Add vmware_fusion Vagrant provider. Nick Townsend
  * Add some padding to the pretty log formatter

## 1.5.1

  * Use `sudo -u` rather than `sudo su` to switch users. Mat Trudel

## 1.5.0

  * Deprecate background helper - too many badly behaved pseudo-daemons. Lee Hambley
  * Don't colourize unless $stdout is a tty. Lee Hambley
  * Remove out of date "Known Issues" section from README. Lee Hambley
  * Dealy variable interpolation inside `as()` block. Nick Townsend
  * Fixes for functional tests under modern Vagrant. Lewis Marshal
  * Fixes for connection pooling. Chris Heald
  * Add `localhost` hostname to local backend. Adam Mckaig
  * Wrap execptions to include hostname. Brecht Hoflack
  * Remove `shellwords` stdlib dependency Bruno Sutic
  * Remove unused `cooldown` accessor. Bruno Sutic
  * Replace Term::ANSIColor with a lighter solution. Tom Clements
  * Documentation fixes. Matt Brictson

## 1.4.0

https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/compare/v1.3.0...v1.4.0

  * Removed `invoke` alias for [`SSHKit::Backend::Printer.execute`](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/blob/master/lib/sshkit/backends/printer.rb#L20). This is to prevent collisions with
  methods in capistrano with similar names, and to provide a cleaner API. See [capistrano issue 912](https://github.com/capistrano/capistrano/issues/912) and [issue 107](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/issues/107) for more details.
  * Connection pooling now uses a thread local to store connection pool, giving each thread its own connection pool. Thank you @mbrictson see [#101](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/101) for more.
  * Command map indifferent towards strings and symbols thanks to @thomasfedb see [#91](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/91)
  * Moved vagrant wrapper to `support` directory, added ability to run tests with vagrant using ssh. @miry see [#64](https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/64)
  * Removed unnecessary require `require_relative '../sshkit'` in `lib/sshkit/dsl.rb` prevents warnings thanks @brabic.
  * Doc fixes thanks @seanhandley @vojto

## 1.3.0

https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/compare/v1.2.0...v1.3.0

  * Connection pooling. SSH connections are reused across multiple invocations
    of `on()`, which can result in significant performance gains. See:
    https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/70. Matt @mbrictson Brictson.
  * Fixes to the Formatter::Dot and to the formatter class name resolver. @hab287:w
  * Added the license to the Gemspec. @anatol.
  * Fix :limit handling for the `in: :groups` run mode. Phil @phs Smith
  * Doc fixes @seanhandley, @sergey-alekseev.

## 1.2.0

https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/compare/v1.1.0...v1.2.0

  * Support picking up a project local SSH config file, if a SSH config file
    exists at ./.ssh/config it will be merged with the ~/.ssh/config. This is
    ideal for defining project-local proxies/gateways, etc. Thanks to Alex
    @0rca Vzorov.
  * Tests and general improvements to the Printer backends (mostly used
    internally). Thanks to Michael @miry Nikitochkin.
  * Update the net-scp dependency version. Thanks again to Michael @miry
    Nikitochkin.
  * Improved command map. This feature allows mapped variables to be pushed
    and unshifted onto the mapping so that the Capistrano extensions for
    rbenv and bundler, etc can work together. For discussion about the reasoning
    see https://github.com/capistrano/capistrano/issues/639 and
    https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/pull/45. A big thanks to Kir @kirs
    Shatrov.
  * `test()` and `capture()` now behave as expected inside a `run_locally` block
    meaning that they now run on your local machine, rather than erring out. Thanks
    to Kentaro @kentaroi Imai.
  * The `:wait` option is now successfully passed to the runner now. Previously the
    `:wait` option was ignored. Thanks to Jordan @jhollinger Hollinger for catching
    the mistake in our test coverage.
  * Fixes and general improvements to the `download()` method which until now was
    quite naïve. Thanks to @chqr.

## 1.1.0

https://github.com/capistrano/sshkit/compare/v1.0.0...v1.1.0

  * Please see the Git history. `git rebase` ate our changelog (we should have been
    more careful)

## 1.0.0

  * The gem now supports a run_locally, although it's nothing to do with SSH,
    it makes a nice API. There are examples in the EXAMPLES.md.

## 0.0.34

  * Allow the setting of global SSH options on the `backend.ssh` as a hash,
    these options are the same as Net::SSH configure expects. Thanks to Rafał
    @lisukorin Lisowski

## 0.0.32

  * Lots of small changes since 0.0.27.
  * Particularly working around a possible NaN issue when uploading
    comparatively large files.

## 0.0.27

  * Don't clobber SSH options with empty values. This allows Net::SSH to
    do the right thing most of the time, and look into the SSH configuration
    files.

## 0.0.26

  * Pretty output no longer prints white text. ("Command.....")
  * Fixed a double-output bug, where upon receiving the exit status from a
    remote command, the last data packet that it sent would be re-printed
    by the pretty formatter.
  * Integration tests now use an Ubuntu Precise 64 Vagrant base box.
  * Additional host declaration syntax, `SSHKit::Host` can now take a hash of
    host properties in addition to a number of new (common sense) DSN type
    syntaxes.
  * Changes to the constants used for logging, we no longer re-define a
    `Logger::TRACE` constant on the global `Logger` class, rather everyhing
    now uses `SSHKit::Logger` (Thanks to Rafa Garcia)
  * Various syntax and documentation fixes.

## 0.0.25

  * `upload!` and `download!` now log to different levels depending on
    completion percentage. When the upload is 0 percent complete or a number
    indivisible by 10, the message is logged to `Logger::DEBUG` otherwise the
    message is logged to `Logger::INFO`, this should mean that normal users at
    a sane log level should see upload progress jump to `100%` for small
    files, and otherwise for larger files they'll see output every `10%`.

## 0.0.24

  * Pretty output now streams stdout and stderr. Previous versions would
    append (`+=`) chunks of data written by the remote host to the `Command`
    instance, and the `Pretty` formatter would only print stdout/stderr if the
    command was `#complete?`. Historically this lead to issues where the
    remote process was blocking for input, had written the prompt to stdout,
    but it was not visible on the client side.

    Now each time the command is passed to the output stream, the
    stdout/stderr are replaced with the lines returned from the remote server
    in this chunk. (i.e were yielded to the callback block). Commands now have
    attribute accessors for `#full_stdout` and `#full_stderr` which are appended
    in the way that `#stdout` and `#stderr` were previously.

    This should be considered a private API, and one should beware of relying
    on `#full_stdout` or `#full_stderr`, they will likely be replaced with a
    cleaner soltion eventually.

  * `upload!` and `download!` now print progress reports at the `Logger::INFO`
     verbosity level.

## 0.0.23

  * Explicitly rely on `net-scp` gem.

## 0.0.22

  * Added naïve implementations of `upload!()` and `download!()` (syncoronous) to
    the Net::SSH backend. See `EXAMPLES.md` for more extensive usage examples.

    The `upload!()` method can take a filename, or an `IO`, this reflects the way
    the underlying Net::SCP implementation works. The same is true of
    `download!()`, when called with a single argument it captures the file's
    contents, otherwise it downloads the file to the local disk.

        on hosts do |host|
          upload!(StringIO.new('some-data-here'), '~/.ssh/authorized_keys')
          upload!('~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub', '~/.ssh/authorized_keys')
          puts download!('/etc/monit/monitrc')
          download!('/etc/monit/monitrc', '~/monitrc')
        end

## 0.0.21

  * Fixed an issue with default formatter
  * Modified `SSHKit.config.output_verbosity=` to accept different objects:

        SSHKit.config.output_verbosity = Logger::INFO
        SSHKit.config.output_verbosity = :info
        SSHKit.config.output_verbosity = 1

## 0.0.20

 * Fixed a bug where the log level would be assigned, not compared in the
   pretty formatter, breaking the remainder of the output verbosity.

## 0.0.19

 * Modified the `Pretty` formatter to include the log level in front of
   executed commands.

 * Modified the `Pretty` formatter not to print stdout and stderr by default,
   the log level must be raised to Logger::DEBUG to see the command outputs.

 * Modified the `Pretty` formatter to use `Command#to_s` when printing the
   command, this prints the short form (without modifications/wrappers applied
   to the command for users, groups, directories, umasks, etc).

## 0.0.18

 * Enable `as()` to take either a string/symbol as previously, but also now
   accepts a hash of `{user: ..., group: ...}`. In case that your host system
   supports the command `sg` (`man 1 sg`) to switch your effective group ID
   then one can work on files as a team group user.

        on host do |host|
          as user: :peter, group: griffin do
            execute :touch, 'somefile'
          end
        end

    will result in a file with the following permissions:

        -rw-r--r-- 1 peter griffin 0 Jan 27 08:12 somefile

    This should make it much easier to share deploy scripts between team
    members.

    **Note:** `sg` has some very strict user and group password requirements
    (the user may not have a password (`passwd username -l` to lock an account
    that already has a password), and the group may not have a password.)

    Additionally, and unsurprisingly *the user must also be a member of the
    group.*

    `sg` was chosen over `newgrp` as it's easier to embed in a one-liner
    command, `newgrp` could be used with a heredoc, but my research suggested
    that it might be better to use sg, as it better represents my intention, a
    temporary switch to a different effective group.

 * Fixed a bug with environmental variables and umasking introduced in 0.0.14.
   Since that version the environmental variables were being presented to the
   umask command's subshell, and not to intended command's subshell.

       incorrect: `ENV=var umask 002 && env`
       correct:   `umask 002 && ENV=var env`

 * Changed the exception handler, if a command returns with a non-zero exit
   status then the output will be prefixed with the command name and which
   channel any output was written to, for example:

       Command.new("echo ping; false")
       => echo stdout: ping
          echo stderr: Nothing written

   In this contrived example that's more or less useless, however with badly
   behaved commands that write errors to stdout, and don't include their name
   in the program output, it can help a lot with debugging.

## 0.0.17

 * Fixed a bug introduced in 0.0.16 where the capture() helper returned
   the name of the command that had been run, not it's output.

 * Classify the pre-directory switch, and pre-user switch command guards
   as having a DEBUG log level to exclude them from the logs.

## 0.0.16

 * Fixed a bug introduced in 0.0.15 where the capture() helper returned
   boolean, discarding any output from the server.

## 0.0.15

 * `Command` now takes a `verbosity` option. This defaults to `Logger::INFO`
   and can be set to any of the Ruby logger level constants. You can also set
   it to the symbol `:debug` (and friends) which will be expanded into the correct
   constants.

   The log verbosity level is set to Logger::INFO by default, and can be
   overridden by setting `SSHKit.config.output_verbosity = Logger::{...}`,
   pick a level that works for you.

   By default `test()` and `capture()` calls are surpressed, and not printed
   by the pretty logger as of this version.

## 0.0.14

 * Umasks can now be set on `Command` instances. It can be set globally with
   `SSHKit.config.umask` (default, nil; meaning take the system default). This
   can be used to set, for example a umask of `007` for allowing users with
   the same primary group to share code without stepping on eachother's toes.

## 0.0.13

 * Correctly quote `as(user)` commands, previously it would expand to:
   `sudo su user -c /usr/bin/env echo "Hello World"`, in which the command to
   run was taken as simply `/usr/bin/env`. By quoting all arguments it should
   now work as expected. `sudo su user -c "/usr/bin/env echo \""Hello World\""`

## 0.0.12

 * Also print anything the program wrote to stdout when the exit status is
   non-zero and the command raises an error. (assits debugging badly behaved
   programs that fail, and write their error output to stdout.)

## 0.0.11

 * Implementing confuguration objects on the backends (WIP, undocumented)
 * Implement `SSHKit.config.default_env`, a hash which can be modified and
   will act as a global `with`.
 * Fixed #9 (with(a: 'b', c: 'c') being parsed as `A=bC=d`. Now properly space
   separated.
 * Fixed #10 (overly aggressive shell escaping), one can now do:
   `with(path: 'foo:$PATH') without the $ being escaped too early.

## 0.0.10

* Include more attributes in `Command#to_hash`.

## 0.0.9

* Include more attributes in `Command#to_hash`.

## 0.0.8

* Added DSL method `background()` this sends a task to the background using
  `nohup` and redirects it's output to `/dev/null` so as to avoid littering
  the filesystem with `nohup.out` files.

**Note:** Backgrounding a task won't work as you expect if you give it a
string, that is you must do `background(:sleep, 5)` and not `background("sleep 5")`
according to the rules by which a command is not processed in any way **if it
contains a spaca character in it's first argument**.

Usage Example:

    on hosts do
      background :rake, "assets:precompile" # typically takes 5 minutes!
    end

**Further:** Many programs are badly behaved and no not work well with `nohup`
it has to do with the way nohup works, reopening the processe's file
descriptors and redirecting them. Programs that re-open, or otherwise
manipulate their own file descriptors may lock up when the SSH session is
disconnected, often they block writing to, or reading from stdin/out.

## 0.0.7

* DSL method `execute()` will now raise `SSHKit::Command::Failed` when the
  exit status is non-zero. The message of the exception will be whatever the
  process had written to stdout.
* New DSL method `test()` behaves as `execute()` used to until this version.
* `Command` now raises an error in `#exit_status=()` if the exit status given
  is not zero. (see below)
* All errors raised by error conditions of SSHKit are defined as subclasses of
  `SSHKit::StandardError` which is itself a subclass of `StandardError`.

The `Command` objects can be set to not raise, by passing `raise_on_non_zero_exit: false`
when instantiating them, this is exactly what `test()` does internally.

Example:

    on hosts do |host
      if test "[ -d /opt/sites ]" do
        within "/opt/sites" do
          execute :git, :pull
        end
      else
        execute :git, :clone, 'some-repository', '/opt/sites'
      end
    end

## 0.0.6

* Support arbitrary properties on Host objects. (see below)

Starting with this version, the `Host` class supports arbitrary properties,
here's a proposed use-case:

    servers = %w{one.example.com two.example.com
                 three.example.com four.example.com}.collect do |s|
      h = SSHKit::Host.new(s)
      if s.match /(one|two)/
        h.properties.roles = [:web]
      else
        h.properties.roles = [:app]
      end
    end

    on servers do |host|
      if host.properties.roles.include?(:web)
        # Do something pertinent to web servers
      elsif host.properties.roles.include?(:app)
        # Do something pertinent to application servers
      end
    end

Naturally, this is a contrived example, the `#properties` attribute on the
Host instance is implemented as an [`OpenStruct`](http://ruby-doc.org/stdlib-1.9.3/libdoc/ostruct/rdoc/OpenStruct.html) and
will behave exactly as such.

## 0.0.5

* Removed configuration option `SSHKit.config.format` (see below)
* Removed configuration option `SSHKit.config.runner` (see below)

The format should now be set by doing:

    SSHKit.config.output = File.open('/dev/null')
    SSHKit.config.output = MyFormatterClass.new($stdout)

The library ships with three formatters, `BlackHole`, `Dot` and `Pretty`.

The default is `Pretty`, but can easily be changed:

    SSHKit.config.output = SSHKit::Formatter::Pretty.new($stdout)
    SSHKit.config.output = SSHKit::Formatter::Dot.new($stdout)
    SSHKit.config.output = SSHKit::Formatter::BlackHole.new($stdout)

The one and only argument to the formatter is the *String/StringIO*ish object
to which the output should be sent. (It should be possible to stack
formatters, or build a multi-formatter to log, and stream to the screen, for
example)

The *runner* is now set by `default_options` on the Coordinator class. The
default is still *:parallel*, and can be overridden on the `on()` (or
`Coordinator#each`) calls directly.

There is no global way to change the runner style for all `on()` calls as of
version `0.0.5`.

## 0.0.4

* Rename the ConnectionManager class to Coordinator, connections are handled
  in the backend, if it needs to create some connections.

## 0.0.3

* Refactor the runner classes into an abstract heirarchy.

## 0.0.2

* Include a *Pretty* formatter
* Modify example to use Pretty formatter.
* Move common behaviour to an abstract formatter.
* Formatters no longer inherit StringIO

## 0.0.1

First release.

Top 10 TV & Film Soundtracks of 2013
By David Selby
2013 wasn't a bad year for film and television. Cinema is advancing with daring new directions and more realistic uses of relatively new techniques like 3D (which isn't anywhere near as eye-straining as it used to be). In televisual terms, there were programs such as Broadchurch and An Adventure in Space and Time which have left such a huge emotional impact that they've been talked about ever since.
As a musician (of sorts), I've always relished in the fact that music makes such a distinguishing change to a film or television series. Indeed, the success of 2013 was in part due to the magnificent soundtracks which often went uncredited. So here are Cult Fix's Top Ten picks from last year:
10. What Remains
A soundtrack was never released for the highly underrated crime drama but the music was some of the most memorable in the last few years. Simple, haunting piano sequences accompanied the 'flashbacks' throughout each episode, becoming one of the central characteristics of the series. I'd sincerely hope for a soundtrack release in the next year.
9. Iron Man 3
It wasn't the most outstanding soundtrack of 2013, but with its fast-paced action sequences it was able to bring more of a flow to the individual scenes. The trailer music was perhaps the most recognisable of the whole lot, and I've seen it pop up on YouTube on many occasions since.
8. The Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug
Shamefully, I've never seen or read the Hobbit series, but I managed to have a listen to this soundtrack last week. Perhaps eighth place is doing it an injustice – I certainly think that those who have seen the film will find themselves connecting to it as they are reminded of their favourite scenes.
7. Broadchurch
Broadchurch was, for me, the single most heartrending drama I've seen in my whole life. It used the simple but effective premise of a woman who's lost her son, with the backdrop and intriguing pretext of the classic 'murder mystery' (or not?). It was a series which, I'll shamelessly say, managed to elicit tears on several instances. Arcade – and the extended version, Beth's Theme are two of the saddest but most beautiful (yet simple) tunes I've ever heard. I'd give them a listen – and, if you haven't, give the series a watch.
6. Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monsters
After the praise I've given Broadchurch, I'll sadly have to agree with Samuel Rahaman's review of the Percy Jackson sequel. It was a poor attempt at re-writing a good book. It was both arrogantly bold and insipidly unadventurous. It was, however, heightened considerably by a superb soundtrack that suited the magical, often chilling themes of the narrative.
5. Frozen
Idina Menzel is a blessed woman. She's been graced with the gift of an enchanting voice, and the spectacular Let It Go allowed her to utilise her talents to their fullest. The lyrics, I found, resonated with me, and I've found myself repeating the soundtrack regularly.
4. The Returned
It was one of the strangest soundtracks I've ever heard. Dark and bass-heavy, and composed by a Scottish post-rock band, it seemed to bizarrely suit the series. Bring on Series Two – and bring on more Mogwai.
3. Doctor Who
Forgetting Series Seven's excellent soundtrack, specials The Day of the Doctor and The Time of the Doctor relied largely on re-used pieces from recent series. Thankfully, these re-uses were beneficial to me as both a viewer and listener – Altering Lives, for instance, or Trenzalore, have become my favourite tracks because of how much I've appreciated them after hearing them used in scenes which match or exceed their original. The new tracks, in the meantime, are my favourites ever – Gold has toned down his music; it's subtler, more poignant but debatably more notable. Yes – I'll be watching The Musketeers.
2. Man of Steel
Hans Zimmer is one of the musical geniuses of the 21st Century, and if you want proof you need look no further than 2013's Man of Steel. The leitmotif of the movie was adapted to be exhilarating, touching and shocking and sometimes all at the same time. One day we'll be looking back on Zimmer as one of the greatest classical composers of all time. If we're not, then there'll be something wrong with the world.
1. An Adventure in Space and Time
Edmund Butt has always been one of my favourite composers and one of my main inspirations. I enjoyed his score for both Afterlife and Life on Mars/Ashes to Ashes and I looked forward to seeing him compose for something with a different tone and set of ideas. I was also glad to see the composer finally receive some credit. It's possibly the most beautiful thing I've ever heard and defied my expectations. Butt showed that he can cater for a quantity of varying emotional responses. He didn't just do justice to a making-of drama – he did justice to William Hartnell, one of the great actors of the twentieth century.
The soundtrack for the illustrious docudrama will be released soon.

I'm from Turkey, I came to Louisiana in 2002. I did my PhD at LSU, it took me 5 years to complete. I finished it last August, so this is the end of my first year here. I got married December of 2007, we've been living in Lafayette, but I'll be commuting from Baton Rouge while my wife finishes her PhD in finance. I'm 28 years old, and my specialty is international politics and comparative politics. My dissertation was on policy compliance in the European Union.
I looked at why or how member states complied with EU policy. Some have succeeded in implementing the policies, some have failed, so I try to explain the difference.
I looked at the partisan aspects, left and right wing governments. For instance, left-wing governments are much more likely to comply with social and environmental policies.
What's something that Americans could use from your studies?
One thing that might interest people here, is about rules that go across international boundaries. For example, if we want the US to comply better with say, environmental rules, the left is probably going to be more responsive.
Tell us something about Turkey that Americans should know.
First of all, Turkey is a fascinating country. It's strategically located, it's a bridge between worlds. It literally spans from Asia to Europe across the Bosporus. Its culture is very closely tied to the Middle East, but because of the reforms of Kemal Ataturk in the early 20th Century, it has moved more toward the West. America has always seen Turkey as a great ally.
So pay attention to Turkey, in terms of democracy, and in terms of being a secular government.
Is it the only secular government in the Islamic world?
Egypt is also secular. Turkey is at the most secular end of the spectrum. But it's matter of degrees.
What research are you working right now?
I'm trying to expand my dissertation into a a book project, so I've been collecting data for that. I'm also studying party competition in European countries, writing a paper about trade, how partisan politics plays into that, particularly mainstream vs. niche parties.
The greens, the radical right, communists, others. How do the main parties accommodate niche parties? How does that affect trade?
My first year here, I taught world politics, where we discussed the politics of the most important countries; also Middle Eastern politics, international political economies, and introduction to international relations.
You are also involved with the international students here.
Yes. I'm the only faculty member in Political Science who looks at international politics. So last year we started the ISS, the International Study Society. It's a student organization, the aim of which is to bring all the students together who have an interest in international affairs. This year we invited a couple of people in to talk about international issues.
For next year, we're going to have bigger events. I'm Vice President for UL's Phi Beta Delta, the Society of International Scholars. We will have joint meetings with ISS. We want to invite some experts from other schools, on human rights, the rise of China. We hope to have informal weekly meetings where we'll discuss world events.
What are your impressions of Lafayette and UL?
Before I came here, I had expected a small town. Lafayette is very cosmopolitan, very different from Baton Rouge. The fact that Lafayette has an international music festival says a lot about the character and the vision of people here, and their priorities. I have been very impressed here. Lafayette is small, but very vibrant, rich with culture. People here are very nice, very relaxed. I have really enjoyed my first year here.
Not many people know that Lebanese cooking comes from the Turks.
This is true. There are not many Turkish restaurants, but the Lebanese restaurants offer Turkish food. People don't realize that. Kebab, dolmush [mehsheh]... the Ottomans controlled the eastern Mediterranean, so their culture influenced the region.
But I think we Lebanese do it better.


Beautiful, isn't it? What better symbol to represent GoneWooWoo's current state of evolution? 9 months into the process, folks, and I can feel that little frond pushing. 9 months and we are about to open our koru just a little further. When we began this journey together, we weren't exactly sure where we were headed. But we did trust that the path, created by our energy, would accurately unfurl before us, revealing the steps along the way. And so it has. Thank you, once again, for joining me in this process of "going woowoo".
Are you ready for more? Are you ready for AnimalWooWoo? I thought you might be! Obviously, there are people out there who prefer to steer clear of things beyond the borders of logic. But, there are many of these same people who embrace woowoo in their pets. They honor the unexplained events they've shared with their pets and accept the unspoken gifts they bring to them. Animals read energy much more easily than we do and, without doubt, there is much to be learned from the animal kingdom. So... let's bring it on. Let's meet some animals and their people and share this next cycle of GoneWooWoo with them. Check out our first article and, please... do send in any stories, links or referrals that might find a niche with us!
Oh, and stay tuned.... there are more little fronds, within the larger one, just beginning to open up too!

The rules of the game changed in the United States last month on 1 May when people experienced a taste of what life was like on 'a Day without Immigrants'.
The broad, grassroots effort aimed to demonstrate that America was built and is powered by migrant workers - and cannot survive without them. Rallies, strikes and protests erupted in 50 cities, across 25 states. The Day saw immigrationenforcement offices shut down and students shun school; organizers estimate that as many as 400,000 workers walked out.

A kínai asztrológia a kínai kultúrában gyökeredző sok ezer éves ezoterikus hagyomány és tan, mely a világ alapelemeinek viselkedését, a természet rendjét, körforgását magyarázza.

A kínai asztrológia Nyugaton elsősorban a 12 állatjegyről ismert, de ezek a horoszkópnak csak egyetlen, első közelítését jelentik. A kínai naptár ugyanis a holdfázisokra épül: a holdévben 12, nagyjából 29 és fél napos hónap van. A kerekítés kedvéért hasonlóan a nyugati naptárhoz, 6 darab 29 napos kishónap, és 6 darab 30 napos nagyhónapra tagolódik. Körülbelül 3 évenként pedig megtoldják egy kiegészítő hónappal, de ezek nem szabályosan követik egymást. A kínai holdév általában később kezdődik, mint a nyugati napév.

A kínai asztrológia az időt 60 éves ciklusokra osztja, ezen belül minden év egy bizonyos Égi Törzs és egy Földi Ág kombinációjából alakul ki. Másfelől az Égi Törzsek (az elemek, sorban: Fa, Tűz, Föld, Fém, Víz mind a Yin illetve Yang formájukban) és a Földi Ágak (az állatjegyek) a holdhónapokhoz, holdnapokhoz, az órákhoz és a 12 állatjegyhez is kapcsolódnak, tehát az egyéni sorsra és jellemre is kihatnak.

Kedves, határtalanul segítőkész és tisztességes - mindez népszerűvé teszi az emberek között. Baráti és ismeretségi köre igen széles, de csak a hozzá közel állók ismerik gondolat- és érzésvilágát. Idegenekkel szemben először tartózkodó, de hamar visszanyeri önbizalmát.

Vágyik arra, hogy egyre újabb élményekben legyen része, és ez az izgalomkeresés néha bajba keveri. Szándékosan senkinek sem okoz kárt, távol áll tőle a haragtartás, a bosszúállás. Ha valaki kihasználja, védekezésként visszavonul, hogy átgondolja a helyzetet, és ha van ideje mérlegelésre, többnyire megtalálja a jó megoldást.

Békeszerető, nem kedveli a viszályokat, és mindenkinek meghallgatja a véleményét. Ezt azonban nem gyávaságból teszi, mert a harctól sem retten vissza, ha önmagát vagy másokat kell megvédenie. Kényes jó hírnevére, nagyon bántják az igazságtalan vádak vagy a nyilvánvaló rosszindulat.

Az emberekben igyekszik mindig a legjobbat megtalálni, a világot derűlátással szemléli. Próbál alkalmazkodni másokhoz, beilleszkedni új helyzetekbe, és ritkán bírál másokat - mindezért minden társaságban szívesen fogadják. A szerelemben gyakran amiatt érez csalódást, hogy túlságosan bízik a partnerében, és látszólagos naivságával néha bizony visszaélnek. Csalódásai után viszonylag gyorsan helyreáll az önbizalma, mert erős jellem. Mindenesetre nem árt, ha tapasztalatokat szerez, mielőtt biztosra veszi, hogy megtalálta az igazit.

Kiváló megfigyelő, mindent megjegyez, még ha ez nem is látszik. Társának megadja azt a szabadságot, amit önmagának is igényel. Kedves természete, képzelőereje, remek humora segíti a hódításban, és partnere rövidesen felismeri, hogy lelke mélyén komoly, érzékeny ember. Ha leköti magát, fontos, hogy társa ne várjon tőle érzelmi figyelmességeket, mert ilyenkor úgy érzi, csapdába ejtették.

Munkájában nem vezérli különösebb becsvágy, elegendő számára, ha tevékenysége egyensúlyban van a magánéletével. Ennek ellenére keményen, komolyan és hatékonyan dolgozik, és szívesen lesz belőle csapatjátékos is. Az orvostudománnyal, a joggal és a zenével kapcsolatos foglalkozásokra különösen alkalmas, de lehet belőle kiváló író, könyvtáros, tudományos kutató, festő, szociális munkás vagy kertész is.

A Disznó jegye a fekete színhez kapcsolódik, ez a kínai hagyományok szerint a megbecsülés és a méltóság jelképe. Egyben a nehézségekkel szemben elért sikert is jelenti. A Disznó az észak-északnyugati irányhoz, tehát a késő esti órákhoz társul, amikor a Nap már eltűnt a láthatár mögött.

Devil May Cry 5 | The Crazy Over-The-Top Action Series Returns
At the Microsoft E3 2018 Media Briefing today, Capcom, a leading worldwide developer and publisher of video games, announced Devil May Cry® 5, the latest title in the iconic 16 million unit selling action series. Devil May Cry 5 will be releasing on Xbox One, PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system and Windows PC in Spring 2019. The announcement trailer can be downloaded from the Capcom Press Centre at www.capcomeuro-press.com.
The Devil May Cry® series, known for its blend of high-octane stylized action and otherworldly characters, grew to be a global success since its first release in 2001. The main protagonist of the series is Dante, a demon hunter and son of the Legendary Dark Knight and demon Sparda and human Eva. Throughout the Devil May Cry series, the eternal battle between the forces of good and evil plays out through the lens of this supernatural family drama, as the Son of Sparda Dante, seeks vengeance for his brother's corruption and his mother's murder.
Now, 10 years since the last iteration, Devil May Cry® 4, Director Hideaki Itsuno and the core team have reunited to conclude the long awaited Sons of Sparda saga.
Several years have passed in Devil May Cry 5 and the threat of demonic power, long since forgotten, has returned to menace the world once again. The demonic invasion begins with the seeds of a "demon tree" taking root in Red Grave City. This hellish incursion attracts the attention of the young demon hunter, Nero, an ally of Dante who now finds himself without his demonic arm, the source of much of his power. As Nero heads to Red Grave City in his motorhome named "Devil May Cry" with his partner Nico, he ruminates on how everything started. The loss of his demonic arm, the demonic invasion, and Dante's unknown whereabouts. Things must be settled once and for all.
Capcom's proprietary in-house RE Engine ensures that with Devil May Cry 5, the series continues to achieve new heights in fidelity, featuring ground-breaking graphics that utilise photorealistic character designs and stunning lighting and environmental effects. The game features three playable characters, each of which offer a radically different stylish combat play style as they take on the city overrun with demons. Adrenaline-fuelled boss fights play out against destructible environments in the striking streets of Red Grave City.

Is it possible to save a concern level 4 outfield player?
Contrary to the 2 posts above, it is NOT simply a case of making sure that they start every game from here on in.
It will depend on what their rating is, what your squad is like and how much of the season has gone.
For example, if it was Messi/Ronaldo and they haven't played ANY league matches or cup matches that impact fitness (not the SMFA matches) and you're 25 league games in to the season then you're knackered - he's off.
The question was "Is it possible to save a concern level 4 outfield player". It is possible to do this as I explained. So it actually IS simply a case of making sure they play every game. In fact, that's the ONLY way they have a chance of being saved - unless you know something different? Is it possible every single time? No, but it is possible and that's how to do it!
In a typical Game World, with 38 league games, a player evaluates their season at regular intervals. This usually occurs around Turns 12, 24 and 36.
At each interval a player will have a 'target' number of games that they will have expected to play. Every game that a player could lose fitness in, counts towards their target.
Players that would expect to be a substitute if you selected your first choice line-up and those rated 89 or higher will expect to play in approximately 30-40% of the number of Turns.
The rest of the players within your squad will only expect to play a few (if any) of the number of Turns.
Goalkeepers are worked out slightly differently, with your highest rated and those 88 or higher expecting to play in approximately 90% of the number of Turns.
Please note that with regards to substitutions, if a player comes on as a substitute then it will count as half an appearance irrespective of what minute they entered the match.
For example, in a league with 38 games (38 Turns) a 94 rated or higher player expects to play in 31 games were they lose fitness. This could be 25 league starts, 8 substitute appearances and 2 cup games. Alternatively 31 league starts (missing 1 in every 6 league games) and no cup games.
If only Man United customers were a bit less insecure. And a bit less rude.
Selling noodles and tractors, you mean?
It isn't the first year that claim has been made.
As a reminder, Cam's quote: "SM have always been quite generous with 'big' sides having a bad season. They tend to not punish those teams as hard for underperfoming on the 1 season length of time as they always seem bounce back." I wouldn't say anything if this was the case. Yet it's been a lot more more than the one season. Sorry to be captain obvious but performances have fallen off a cliff since SAF left (for the sixth season in a row now).
You wont be surprise to hear that i am curently flipping disgusted in Arsenal, Liverpool are a good side, but dont be fooled by how easily they won. We just imploded.
i wouldn't want someone taking your earlier reply on face value as they could lose a player for cash only, whereas if they couldn't be saved they can at least try to use them in a trade in the meantime.
The question was "Is it possible to save a concern level 4 outfield player". It is possible to do this as I explained. So it actually IS simply a case of making sure they play every game.
You 'explained' that they have to play them every game going forward. As I have explained (and you subsequently posted), that is FALSE.
You can try semantics as much as you like but your earlier post was, at best, I'll advised. I'd be pretty miffed if I asked for advice, took on board what you posted and ended up losing the player.
Then you should play TAA as your RB and Pavard as CB. Sell Bellerin.
Shaquiri or Tadic? Who would you buy to make some profit?
Nope. Less chances. Leicester City should have another fairy tale for him to achieve that rating.
Looks like Arsenal & Chelsea tomorrow.
Be less of a fanboy and please accept that quite a few Man United players should have their ratings dropped. This thread is about ratings after all (and noodles sales shouldn't impact those). Today was a slow start. Let's see if SM continue dropping their ratings tomorrow.
Ricardo Pereira is a nice right flank player, I follow him since is great seasons at OGC Nice (15-16 and 16-17 I think) on loan from Porto.
Then he played the last season with O Porto... He did great with a good Champion's league season.
And then he rejoins Claude Puel this time at Leicester in the PL, and is immediatly good... but not yet great.
In the meantime he was part of the Portugal squad for the WC where he was dropped (🚽) in favor of Cédric Soares.
Unfortunately when he had the chance in the final 1/8, he failed against Uruguay, as an offensive RB he was destroyed by Suarez and the lot.
After that failure, he did not came back in the national squad, as Joao Cancelo is on the rise.
So for me, he won't get a 90 at Leicester this winter. Maybe he needs to join a top club as a first squad player, like Cancelo ?
Or maybe he is just your reliable regular team player and don't have the mind of a top player ?
I doubt United is finished. My guess is rest of United (Sanchez drop) and Arsenal tomorrow.
É irritante essa demora para reduzir a classificação de alguns jogadores, Morata não tem nada para valer 92, hoje ele valeria 90! Esse jogo poderia ser mais dinâmico, subir e descer co mais frequência o nível dos atletas.
Maybe some people don't realize the amount of work it takes to rate thousands and thousands of football players around the world... The only solution would be to put an AI engine on this job, which would cost a lot of money.


In May 2018 the EU banned three of the significant pesticides implicated in the collapse of bee populations. Clothianidin, imidacloprid and thiamethoxam are now prohibited for use on crops.
However France has gone a step further and set the high bar in the effort to save the bees. Given the importance of pollinators to nature and the survival of the biosphere, this could not happen too soon!
Studies have reported that the neonicotinoid pesticides attack the central nervous system of insects, leading to loss of memory and homing skills, in addition to reduced fertility. Bees that cannot find their way back to the hive quickly die. However the pesticides have also been shown to affect butterflies, birds and other pollinating insects.
There is a reason why France is ahead of the field in this regard: The "bee killing" pesticides were tested first on French fields in the 1990's – and the French farmers witnessed first-hand the catastrophic effects that occurred in 1994; describing "a carpet of dead bees". 400,000 bee colonies died within days – yet the story was buried under a layer of corruption and distorted science.
The new move is certain to be celebrated by ecologists and sets an example of protection of nature that the rest of the world needs to follow.

Polygamy and Alcohol Linked to Physical Abuse in African Marriages
African women in polygamous marriages or with alcoholic husbands have a significantly higher risk of being physically abused by their husbands than women in monogamous marriages or women whose husbands don't abuse alcohol, new research shows.
Accounting for the Child in the Transmission of Party Identification
The transmission of party identification from parent to child is one of the most important components of political socialization in the United States. Research shows that children learn their party identification from their parents, and parents drive the learning process. The vast majority of studies thus treats children as passive recipients of information and assumes that parent-child concordance equals transmission. Rather than relying on a single pathway by which parents teach children, we propose an alternative view by focusing on children as active agents in their socialization.
Civic Stratification and the Exclusion of Undocumented Immigrants from Cross-border Health Care
This paper proposes a theoretical framework and an empirical example of the relationship between the civic stratification of immigrants in the United States, and their access to healthcare. We use the 2007 Pew Hispanic Center/Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Hispanic Healthcare Survey, a nationally representative survey of U.S. Latinos (N = 2,783 foreign-born respondents) and find that immigrants who are not citizens or legal permanent residents are significantly more likely to be excluded from care in both the United States and across borders.
Study Explores Why There Is No Labor Party in the United States
The improbable rise of Bernie Sanders' presidential campaign presents an interesting question: why is Sanders, a self-proclaimed "democratic socialist," running as a Democrat? "In any other industrialized country, Sanders would likely be the standard-bearer for a labor or social democratic party," said McGill University sociologist Barry Eidlin, whose new study appears in the June issue of the American Sociological Review. "But the U.S. famously lacks such a party."
The Ecstatic Edge of Politics: Sociology and Donald Trump
"As the United States prepares for the upcoming presidential election, Arlie Hochschild's essay, "The Ecstatic Edge of Politics: Sociology and Donald Trump," provides valuable insight into the emotional dynamics that underpin the political perceptions of Trump supporters. Hochschild's account provides new perspective on the causes of the disenchantment experienced by large sections of the voting population and the particular nature of Donald Trump's charismatic appeal to them." - Michael Sauder, editor, Contemporary Sociology
The New Politics of Masculinity and Migration
We've never seen a presidential election season like this one. So much is noteworthy, including the first female U.S. presidential candidate, but there is a strong need to address an issue that has not been sufficiently underscored: how Donald Trump's campaign is fueled by the articulation of misogyny and xenophobia.
The Price of Protection: A Trajectory Analysis of Civil Remedies for Abuse and Women's Earnings
We know men's violence against women is costly. Yet, we know little about the costs—or benefits—of women's efforts to end it. This study investigates the temporal dynamics of women's earnings and petitioning for a Protection from Abuse (PFA) civil restraining order. Women's earnings might rise or fall at the time of petitioning but quickly return to pre-petitioning levels, a short-term boost or shock; or, petitioning might precipitate a longer-term stall or upward shift in women's earnings.
Socius Special Issue Call for Papers
Socius: Sociological Research for a Dynamic World invites papers for a special issue on gender in the 2016 elections. We invite contributions on all topics relevant to gender and politics. Potential topics could include (but are not limited to): gender and the executive; women, social policy, and state legislative elections; intersectionality and the media; gender and public opinion; and women in changing political institutions. Informative papers on trends or cross-national comparisons are welcome as long as they are framed in relation to the 2016 U.S. election.
Protests with Many Participants and Unified Message Most Likely to Influence Politicians, Study Suggests
Protests that bring many people to the streets who agree among themselves and have a single message are most likely to influence elected officials, suggests a new study.
"We found that features of a protest can alter the calculations of politicians and how they view an issue," said Ruud Wouters, an assistant professor of political communication and journalism at the University of Amsterdam and the lead author of the study. "More specifically, the number of participants and unity are the characteristics of a protest that have the greatest ability to change politicians' opinions."

People regularly talk about things being "as safe as houses" and the great Australian dream of owning your own home is now a reality for more and more people, but how safe are law abiding citizens when it comes to government confiscation laws?
If you think the suite of confiscation laws brought in under recent governments, Labour and Liberal alike, are only there to tackle major criminals – the so-called king-pins of organised crime, and the 'Mr Bigs' of the drug trade – then perhaps it's time for a reality check.
Take the case of Ms Nguyen, who I met earlier this month (and with whom I'm pictured above). A single mother and a factory worker earning close to the minimum wage, she is fighting to stop the DPP from selling her house out from under her. This person has no criminal record; not so much as a parking ticket against her name.
Her estranged husband left her to bring up their daughter alone in 2010. Having moved out of the family home, he fell in with a bad crowd, and three years later he was convicted of drug offences and jailed. That's when the DPP came knocking at the door – the door of a house they claimed they now owned half of.
Ignore the fact that this lady has been the sole mortgage payer on the property for eight years. That counts for nothing. She has to produce 50 per cent of the equity held in the property, or watch the government sell it out from under her. How do you do that overnight on a factory worker's wage?
She has done the right thing throughout. She has kept up her payments, she has maintained the property at her own expense. Does the DPP take that into account? No, they don't.
Now ask yourself, could you find yourself in her shoes?
If your partner, heaven forbid, walks out the door tomorrow, and three years down the track is arrested and charged, could you lose your house through no fault of your own? Well, yes, you could.
If your teenage son or daughter is, unbeknown to you, selling weed from the family home, could that home be sold without your consent? Well, yes, it could.
Is this situation right and just? Far from it. Yet my appeals to the Attorney General and to the McGowan Government to amend the law continue to fall on deaf ears. They would rather be tough on crime in theory, than display reason and compassion in practice.
Most jurisdictions across Australia have some form of confiscation legislation in place, but those in Western Australia are particularly harsh and egregious.
Recent figures released by the WA Auditor General show that it's the average Joe who's paying the price for confiscations, and there are a worrying number of cases of innocent parties being left homeless after the State's Director of Public Prosecutions and WA Police come knocking.
And to be clear, they can knock on your door for a whole host of reasons, many of them outside your control.
They can claim that the property was bought with the proceeds of crime, in which case it will be up to you to prove that it wasn't. That is perhaps the confiscation option that people have the least argument with, though it can still see your partner and kids out on the street.
They can claim that the property was used in the commission of a crime. You don't have to have used it personally, they can still confiscate it.
Any crime that attracts a two-year sentence or more – and let's face it, that's most crimes on the statute book – can be used as the basis for a confiscation order.
And if drugs are involved, the DPP can and will apply for a drug-trafficker declaration in all eligible cases, regardless of the circumstances.
I know of one couple who face the loss of their home over a cannabis possession charge that attracted a twelve-month suspended sentence. That gentleman didn't spend a single night in jail, and that's about as far from a major drugs case as you can get, yet his legally purchased home now belongs to the state. In any other circumstance, we would call that theft.
That's a specific case though. What about the average confiscation?
Well, the WA Auditor General's review of confiscation cases, published earlier this month, show that the majority of confiscations fall into two categories: real estate, and vehicles. In other words, the family home, and the family car.
What is interesting though is the value of those homes and cars.
The average value of real estate confiscated in 2013-14 was just $499,000. In 2014-15 it rose slightly to $519,000. The median house price in Perth has fallen in recent months, but it currently sits at $553,000. In other words, the majority of the homes seized by the state and sold were worth less than the average house price. They weren't McMansions. They were the homes of ordinary families.
It's a similar picture when we look at vehicle confiscations. If you want to view high-end sports cars and luxury vehicles, you won't find them in the state lockup. The average value of the cars seized in 2013-14 was just $24,000. Try buying a new family hatchback for $24,000 and see how much change you have left over.
And I can't stress strongly enough the fact that you don't personally have to be at fault to suffer under these various confiscation laws.
The Legislative Council here in WA will debate this legislation in the coming weeks, as the government attempts to extend them to give the CCC the right to confiscate, alongside the Police and the DPP. I intend to oppose that extension because I've seen too many innocent parties come through my office asking for help with confiscation cases in the past twelve months.
Could you be next? I certainly hope not, but someone reading this certainly could be, and I don't envy their chances, or yours.

Bienvenidos familiares, compañeras, y amigos,
First, I would like to recognize that we are on sacred Tongva land, and on this land today, we are celebrating a moment in our lives that we have long anticipated with excitement and fear. For many of us, this day has been one that was awaited alongside family and friends. While for some, it is a new experience having challenged many expectations as first generation students that is shared with our families, friends, and communities. Although we have shared Scripps for the last four years, we have each shaped our own experience within these ivory walls that hold many memories of laughter, tears, accomplishments, failures, and risks.
As first years, we were enveloped in the beauty of Scripps with its citrus-filled walkways and its fruit-filled grounds. We walked through the doors of Denison for the first time and nervously wrote our names in a book that solidified our presence and joined the classes before us. And how can we forget the delicious chocolate bread pudding at orientation that really sealed the deal, but most importantly filled us with warmth and comfort.
While we enjoyed the many beauties and delicacies Scripps had to offer, we altogether were forming a new community for ourselves as the class of 2018. A community that has had its successes and faults, a community that many of us have continuously fought to improve not just for us but for the ones that came after us and the future ones to come. Through it all we have asked ourselves, what is important to our Scripps community? How do we create the community we want? What can we do to make our students more involved in the transformative decisions of our campus? We looked to fixing the materialistic aspects of Scripps, and voicing the concerns that we believed addressed the need of all our students, but we did not recognize that within those decisions the voices of the unheard and unseen communities were left out.
Inside the walls of Scripps, there are many stories that are left unnoticed, many conversations left unheard and tucked away only for those individuals who shared it. I am here today to make those communities present because they are the ones that many students have turned to when the Scripps community failed to hear and acknowledge them, and when our peers have caused us discomfort in the spaces that we have been told are safe and inclusive.
After four years of trials and tribulations, we are taking this moment to be heard as a part of this celebration. For some of us, like me, sitting in these chairs feels like a dream that we thought would not become a reality. The frustrations and challenges of navigating academics, mental health, and our personal lives, alongside multiple jobs, have been ones that we have shared with those we trust in a dorm room behind closed doors, in a study space that we purposely take up to make our presence known, or in SCORE, one of the few spaces that was founded to center the experiences and voices that are erased on campus. On November 8th, 2016, when the country showed itself for who it was, while students were in the living rooms disappointed at the results, others felt their world stop because now the safety of their families, friends, and communities were added onto the never-ending worries they carry as students; yet they were the ones in class the next day doing what their families always told them to do, "tienes que seguir estudiando, tienes que seguir adelante". As students organized for equity and justice on campus, their continuous labor is now being recognized for the countless hours of planning, sacrifice, and persistence in calling attention to the lack of institutional support, calling attention to the complacency of their classmates. This is to acknowledge the moments we held ourselves back from expressing what we truly felt in class, but most importantly, on campus because of the inherent expectations placed upon us as marginalized communities. We have faced many obstacles that have allowed us to look past the veil of aesthetics and notority and begin a new life viewing our environment more critically. While for some, this journey began in our first session of CORE. For others, including myself, it started as soon as we stepped foot on campus.
As we acknowledge the challenges and difficulties we've faced, we cannot leave without acknowledging the support and care we have given each other. Some of us met our greatest support systems before we even started at Scripps. DIVE, a program designed for admitted underrepresented students of color and first-generation students, gave me and many others friendships and relationships that have withstood the test of time since that day in April of 2014. To the students who came before us, offered their knowledge and shared their experiences, we would have not been able to navigate the complexities of the Scripps College experience without you. The clubs and organizations who created spaces for the underrepresented students, we want to recognize you, First-Generation @ Scripps, DIDA, Cafe Con Leche, Watu Weusi, AASP, AASU, and FAMILY, for your commitment and work that you have put in to make sure that the students you represent are acknowledged, visible and heard. Our friends who have made themselves available when we needed it the most and allowed us to cry, laugh, and share space with them, even if it meant sitting in silence. We want to thank the faculty and staff who have shared their experiences, knowledge, resources, and support when we, as students, were unsure of our place in academia. We also can't overlook the work, effort and genuine care of housekeeping, maintenance, groundskeepers, and the dining hall staff who are the foundation of Scripps and who have taken on the role as caretakers in a new place that we had to call home. Quiero extender las gracias a ustedes los trabajadores que ayudan mantener a la escuela y que nos han apoyado durante este tiempo. Ustedes han sido una presencia familiar en este lugar desconocido. We have had a myriad of support systems throughout our time at Scripps, however, we cannot forget to thank the ones who are sitting before us, our families, friends and mentors who have supported us from the beginning. I would especially like to recognize those families who are experiencing this event for the first time, including my family, and their persistence to make this opportunity happen. Quiero reconocer el esfuerzo de ustedes, los padres, que han sacrificado y trabajado mucho para que nosotras pudiéramos llegar a este momento en nuestras vidas.
Although we cannot deny that this journey has been difficult, we can say that it has been a transformative and challenging experience. As we leave here to begin a new chapter in our lives, I want to remind each one of us that we do not have to be alone through it all. We will be able to carry the support we have here with us alongside another unknown journey, and we will have the confidence to create and form that support again outside of Scripps. Each one of us has the power to make an impact the same way our communities have had on us, and it is our decision to implement it in our future lives, careers, friendships and commitments. Before you leave here, don't forget to reflect on what you have accomplished and what you have learned from your failures, and don't forget to acknowledge those who have stood by you on this journey. Despite all obstacles and moments of uncertainty, I want to remind you, quiero recordarles, you can do it! Si se puede!

How to Attend
Dual Language Education Program
L.A. Unified recognizes our students' cultural and linguistic assets. We are committed to providing language pathways that will enable our students to develop and strengthen their cognitive, academic, cultural, and economic capabilities. L.A. Unified is proud to offer wide-ranging dual language education programs that provide our students with opportunities to develop the multilingual and multicultural skills necessary to be successful in a global society.
This brochure provides a resource for families who want to find out more and apply to pathways where their children can become bilingual/biliterate and culturally competent. L.A. Unified offers programs in grades TK to 12 where students can continue to achieve higher levels of language proficiency, participate in the California Seal of Biliteracy, and be prepared to enter and compete in a global economy. Currently, there are 143 Dual Language Two-Way Immersion, Dual Language One-Way Immersion, and World Language Immersion Programs. The programs are offered in Spanish, Korean, Mandarin, French, Armenian, and Arabic. New programs are added each year.
Dual Language Education Programs are located on regular school campuses with access to activities and experiences shared with the host school. Please review the following pages to determine the programs that fit your child's needs. For more information regarding a specific program at a given school site, please call the principal using the telephone number listed under the school's name on pages 51-56 in this brochure.
One of the District's goals is to increase the number of graduating seniors who are bilingual and biliterate. As students continue to participate in Dual Language Education Programs from Transitional Kindergarten (TK) to 12th Grade, they reach advanced levels of academic and language proficiency in both languages and gain sociocultural understanding and competence. In addition, students in these programs have an opportunity to earn the L.A. Unified Biliteracy Award in 5th and 8th grades, as well as the L.A. Unified and California Seal of Biliteracy in 12th grade.

When it comes to Rolex, the Pacific Coast is ready to make a huge splash. Pay attention, EN readers, this year we're making sure they will! Not only are we incredibly proud of everyone competing this year, we also have a record number of West Coast riders making the trip.
In honor of that, EN is teaming up with the incredible Ride On Video team to offer a prize package! Area VI riders are familiar with Bob and Debi Ravenscroft and their company, which proudly proclaims, "We Film Every Ride!" Not just a great way to remember your weekend and all the hard work you put in, the videos also serve as wonderful training tools (with rocking music!).
The chandelier makes its way across the west as well. Taj is a welcome sight to all Area VI competitors! Here they are at Rebecca. Photo courtesy of Ride On Video.
Last year Bob, Debi, their daughter (and rider!) Tayler, and their film crew hit the road for Montana and filmed The Event at Rebecca Farm (AKA the Rolex of the West). Do you want a chance to remember those gallops on the green grass, look back fondly on you and your horse dancing in the sand in Big Sky country, and show everyone just exactly what those clouds looked like as you had your best stadium round to date?
You're in luck! Ride On Video is generously donating a full video package (dressage, cross country and stadium) at The Event at Rebecca Farm 2015 to the winner of EN's Who Will Win the West at Rolex Contest!
