There's a fascinating article in this week's New Yorker about the Dickens Camp held annually in California. The article is only available in abstract format online - but you can still get the magazine on newsstands.
Dickens camp is "a week of discussing Dickens, sleeping in dormitories, and eating in a cafeteria, bringing together literary scholars, teachers, and students, with readers who love Dickens. Every year the campers read a different book. This year, it was "Great Expectations," which also happens to have been a recent selection of Oprah's Book Club."
In May of 1858 he more or less kicked her out of the house. "She does not - and she never did - care for the children" he insisted "and the children do not - and they never did - care for her."
Charley, the Dickenses' oldest child, went to live with his mother. At twenty-one he was the only one of the nine children old enough to make his own decision. Dickens all but forebade the rest of the children to see their mother. The youngest... had just turned six.
Also according to the article, his 1867 tour of the United States was not very well received although it was a financial success. It mentions that Henry James thought Dickens' readings "charmless" and Mark Twain said they were "glittering frostwork."
Twain himself had more than a casual interest in Dickens' performances, since 1867 was the year that he began performing his works on stage.
I found the entire piece that Twain wrote about Dickens' performance here.
I was a good deal disappointed in Mr. Dickens' reading - I will go further and say, a great deal disappointed. The Herald and Tribune critics must have been carried away by their imaginations when they wrote their extravagant praises of it. Mr. Dickens' reading is rather monotonous, as a general thing; his voice is husky; his pathos is only the beautiful pathos of his language - there is no heart, no feeling in it - it is glittering frostwork; his rich humor cannot fail to tickle an audience into ecstasies save when he reads to himself. And what a bright, intelligent audience he had! He ought to have made them laugh, or cry, or shout, at his own good will or pleasure -- but he did not. They were very much tamer than they should have been.
Promptly at 8 P.M., unannounced, and without waiting for any stamping or clapping of hands to call him out, a tall, "spry," (if I may say it,) thin-legged old gentleman, gotten up regardless of expense, especially as to shirt-front and diamonds, with a bright red flower in his button-hole, gray beard and moustache, bald head, and with side hair brushed fiercely and tempestuously forward, as if its owner were sweeping down before a gale of wind, the very Dickens came! He did not emerge upon the stage - that is rather too deliberate a word -- he strode. He strode - in the most English way and exhibiting the most English general style and appearance - straight across the broad stage, heedless of everything, unconscious of everybody, turning neither to the right nor the left -- but striding eagerly straight ahead, as if he had seen a girl he knew turn the next corner. He brought up handsomely in the centre and faced the opera glasses. His pictures are hardly handsome, and he, like everybody else, is less handsome than his pictures. That fashion he has of brushing his hair and goatee so resolutely forward gives him a comical Scotch-terrier look about the face, which is rather heightened than otherwise by his portentous dignity and gravity.
Portentous dignity and gravity is just about the opposite of what this actor does, which is very well since Dickens sounds like a complete drag, whereas there are few things on this earth more enchanting than this actor breathlessly announcing himself offstage and then running onto the playing area - the conceit is that he's almost late for the show due to a luggage mix-up - and explaining the luggage situation with warmth and vivacity and the comfortable familiarity of a dear and favorite uncle.
Would that Charles Dickens was as charming as this actor portrays him - and would that Dickens was as decent a human being as you would expect him to be based on his writing. But that's why we need stories and theatre - to break up the normal monotonous, incessant march of disappointing reality.

Shutdown Averted at Last Moment
By Marcia Smith | Posted: April 9, 2011 12:00 am ET | Last Updated: December 5, 2011 6:17 pm ET
Democrats and Republicans reached agreement on a budget for the rest of FY2011 literally at the 11th hour, averting a government shutdown that would have occurred at midnight Friday.
President Obama made a staement at 11:04 pm EDT as the House and Senate passed another short term Continuing Resolution (CR) to fund the government for one more week (until April 15) while the terms of the agreement can be put into formal legislative language and enacted. This is not the same short-term CR that the House passed Thursday. This one would cut only $2 billion, instead of $12 billion, in exchange for the week-long extension. None of the $2 billion appears to be from NASA or NOAA space programs.
The specifics of the overall deal that was reached for the remaining six months of FY2011 have not been released, but it cuts $37.7 billion from current spending (at FY2010 levels) according to The Hill newspaper. The two sides had been fighting over a $33 billion cut (Democrats) versus $40 billion cut (Republicans). Just as importantly, Republicans agreed not to include policy provisions ("riders") that would have, for example, prohibited federal funding for Planned Parenthood and prevented the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) from issuing certain regulations.

Q: give error if number is anything other than 1 or 0 <?php
$gender = 0;
if (($gender != 0) || ($gender != 1))
{
    die('error:Must select a gender.');
}
?>

This should give a error if the gender is anything other than 1 or 0. So if i gave 5 it should die. If i gave it 1 it should not die. If i give it 0 it should not die.
I was thinking about a few work arounds
<?php
$gender = 0;
if ($gender == 0)
{
//number is okay
}
else if ($gender == 1)
{
//number is okay
}
else
{
die('error:Must select a gender.');
}
?>

Well that looks sloppy and it would work or i could create a array with 0 and 1 and check if its in it or not. Kinda overkill i think.
Not sure what i'm doing wrong.

A: You're using the wrong boolean operator:
 if (($gender != 0) || ($gender != 1)) {
 }

This will be entered if gender is 0, too, because it isn't 1, and vice versa. What you need to do is:
 if (($gender != 0) && ($gender != 1)) {
 }

Look at this table:
gender  A (gender != 0)    B (gender != 1)     A || B     A && B
----------------------------------------------------------------
0       false              true                true       false
1       true               false               true       false
5       true               true                true       true

Also note Joshua's suggestion in the comments:
if (($gender == 0) || ($gender == 1)) {
    /* number is ok */
} else {
    die();
}

which is a bit longer, but more readable.

A: if (($gender != 0) && ($gender != 1))
                   ^^

You want to die if both tests are true.

A: Change the or (||) to and (&&) and it should work, as you only want to fail, when it's both not 0 and not 1.

2019 Thrash Albums That'll Melt Your Face Off – Part 1
Date: August 12, 2019Author: Ethan McGuire 0 Comments
Peter Gabriel's famous face melting
To read Part 2, click here.
If you know us here at "E.D. – Music, Movies, Etc.," you know we enjoy reviewing and discussing the music of many genres, but you also know our favorite genre/subgenre to talk about is thrash metal, the Big Four and more.
In previous content from the last few years, Mr. Malone and I have both mentioned we feel we're in the midst of a new stage of thrash revival. Unfortunately, that new wave now seems much smaller than we had previously thought. Of course, there was the period some refer to as the "New Wave of Thrash Metal," starting in the mid 2000s, but that movement had petered out before the early 2010s, due in part to the generally low quality of music it produced, even from its front-runners. Then – seemingly centered around excellent, new releases from some of the biggest '80s thrash bands, Anthrax, Death Angel, Megadeth, Metallica, Slayer, and Testament – thrash got a bit of a restart beginning around the middle of 2015, with 2016 and 2017 seeing many high quality, metal thrashing mad LPs from old and new thrashers alike. Since then, the movement seems to have died down again, though it still does well in the underground (as Dave Mustaine once said, "real, credible metal" has always been underground), and many good non-thrash artists like Bokassa, High on Fire, Mark Morton, Paladin (a new power metal band I recommend that mixes power metal with thrash and melodic death metal), and even Sum 41 have made good music by injecting thrash, either implicitly or explicitly, into their own sound.
Thrash bands did not grab much attention in 2019's first half, it's true, yet we thrash aficionados should maintain hope, because several good albums hit the scene this year, and I hope you thrash fans — and heavy metal in general fans too — will take note.
Here are 11 2019 thrash releases I think you all should check out.
I will only discuss albums I both heard and desire to discuss. This list and these short reviews are not meant to form a comprehensive overview of each and every thrash LP or EP released this year; rather, this is a list of 2019 thrash album recommendations, or even just mentions, no matter what I might say about each release. These are the new thrash records that caught my attention enough to discuss. "Part 1" here covers January 2019 to June 2019. "Part 2" will cover July 2019 to December 2019.
Flotsam and Jetsam's The End of Chaos (Released January 18)
Flotsam and Jetsam's The End of Chaos takes home the award for best traditional thrash LP of 2019's first half. The End of Chaos is definitely Flotsam and Jetsam's best album in ages, and they have a few good ones in their discography. This album is more concise and aggressive than Flotsam and Jetsam's last several releases, supercharging the band and creating a vigorous, fun, thrash package here.

Critical Defiance's Misconception (Released February 8)
Critical Defiance's Misconception is a promising debut LP from a new, Chilean, thrash band. This thrash treat of a record features tasty riffs and soloing galore, alongside thrashy instrumentation shooting out all over the place like an explosion on every song. My complaint with Misconception is that each track has far too much going on at once, like the aforementioned explosion, and the songwriting never congeals enough to make the band's "everything including the kitchen sink" approach work, nor are any of the individual thrown-together pieces of sound wholly original. Even so, this LP is worth a spin, and I will be watching closely for what these guys do next. If Critical Defiance can wrangle their various influences into something more streamlined, something more their own – perhaps by adding in more uniquely Chilean elements – they have a great thrash future ahead of them.
Impalers' "From Ashes to Iron" EP (Released February 12)
The Danish thrash band Impalers, who formed in 2007, never made it out of the underground, yet they are, and have been, one of the best current thrash bands, especially in the realm of Teutonic thrash. Their 2017 LP The Celestial Dictator approached greatness, as you can read in my review of the album. Sadly, the band is retiring this year. At least Impalers has given us a parting gift before retiring, a killer EP, "From Ashes to Iron." The EP packs the vicious punch of a band angry to leave. The metal scene wasn't as good to them as it should have been, but Impalers' fans won't forget Impalers. Here, as always, are hard-driving thrash riffs and more, packed with all the energy and frustration necessary to send the guys off strong!
Chainbreaker's Lethal Desire (Released February 15)
Chainbreaker is yet another decent thrash band from Canada, which, despite its reputation for kindness, seems to be a country fertile for fostering the growth of angry extreme metal bands. Made up of members from other solid bands — the traditional heavy metal Cauldron, the blackened thrash Toxic Holocaust, and the death thrash Rammer — the guys in Chainbreaker play thrash metal with an emphasis on fun, leaning more toward the speed metal of band's like Accept and Anvil, the heavy metal of Motörhead, and the hard rock of KISS. The production work is bad — probably intentionally so, it has that retro rough sound thrash bands in the 2000s loved, but still annoying — and still the LP is worth a spin.
Overkill's The Wings of War (Released February 22)
The East Coast thrashers Overkill took their name from a Motörhead song, and just as the Motörhead comparison has been apt from the beginning, Overkill continues here, 39 years after they first formed, to prove they did, do, and always will deserve their name. Overkill consistently churns out worthy thrash, album after album, year after year, and The Wings of War is no different, despite it being the band's 19th LP! It's more Overkill, even if little else. "More Overkill" is enough for most Overkill fans, and a boon for thrash in general.
Oozing Wound's High Anxiety (Released March 15)
LP High Anxiety from Oozing Wound is by far the most thrilling musical listen I have experienced this year, and my favorite album of the year so far in any genre. It gives me the kind of feeling I long for in a thrash record, the kind I still get when I listen back to old Metallica, Anthrax, and Testament albums, the kind of feeling I wish for when I listen to newer thrash bands but rarely ever actually feel, the sort of exhilarating adrenaline rush that makes me pump my fists, scream at the sky, and throw my metal horns up in the air, no matter how silly it may look. On High Anxiety, Oozing Wound makes me think of Iron Reagan if they were actually incendiary, crossover thrash that is both fully thrashy and wholly hardcore at the same time. High Anxiety exists at the exact juncture of thrash, hardcore, and noise rock. Imagine Power Trip plus Turnstile plus Daughters. That's Oozing Wound, and that's High Anxiety for sure.

Exumer's Hostile Defiance (Released April 5)
Exumer's Hostile Defiance is a new thrash metal LP from a far too often overlooked, German, thrash band. Exumer summons a sound here that feels like Teutonic thrash plus East Coast thrash plus a better version of the grating, thrashy things Metallica was attempting on St. Anger in 2003. On this the band's 5th studio LP since their formation in 1985, the guys inject more melodic and rhythmic elements into their music than they have in the past, while also making sure the lyrics have a real-world foundation to them, even when they are fantasy or horror driven on the surface. The real-world foundation is front-man Mem Von Stein's 17-year experience in the field of psychiatry, Von Stein being a licensed social worker, the album's title getting its name from Oppositional Defiant Disorder. I wouldn't call Hostile Defiance groundbreaking, but it is worth a spin or two.

Protector's Summon the Hordes (Released April 26)
If you're looking for a new, old-fashioned, death thrash LP to spin, you might as well get it from a progenitor of the sub-genre: Protector. Summon the Hordes doesn't contain anything super fresh, but it is nasty, heavy, aggressive, and overall a fun listen for death thrash lovers.
Maniac Abductor's Casualties of Causality (Released May 10)
Finnish thrashers Maniac Abductor (I've been looking out for anything new from these guys) finally released their debut LP, 'Casualties of Causality,' and it is a rockin' first metal album. These guys are definitely old school, and though that can be a thrash downside and one of the biggest problems with 21st century thrash bands, Maniac Abductor do it well! Casualties of Causality brings to mind the best of the Municipal Waste records, and if you like newer bands such as Gama Bomb or Havok, you definitely need to check these guys out.
Death Angel's Humanicide (Released May 31)
With Humanicide, Death Angel is starting to reach Overkill levels of consistency, but also Overkill levels of "no experimentation." Death Angel was always one of the lesser legendary bands of thrash's first wave — though that does not denigrate their legends status — but they are now the most energetic of those bands still going. Their last LP, The Evil Divide, was nearly great, if not actually great, and one of the best thrash albums of the 2010s so far. Humanicide is The Evil Divide-lite. It features more of The Evil Divide's hard rock but less of its punk and death metal. This makes it a fine listen, just more generic than The Evil Divide. Humanicide is more along the lines of Death Angel's other comeback era albums — especially Restless Retribution and The Dream Calls for Blood — but if you liked those albums, you'll enjoy this one too.
Vulture's Ghastly Waves & Battered Graves (Released June 7)
Check out thrash metal band Vulture's sophomore LP for some fun, speedy, early West Coast thrash meets Teutonic thrash mixed with horror synths and a few modern metal touches. The synths are implemented more effectively here than on Vulture's first record. The album loses steam and creativity in its second half, though.
All in all, 2019 has been an underwhelming year for thrash, so far. Many of the big thrash names who planned to release albums in 2019's first half ended up having to delay their records, but, just as with heavy metal in general, the underground stuff prospered, and little-known bands occasionally managed to make their voices heard.
The second half of 2019, however, may bring us more thrashy goodness than the first half, both for the underground and the more recognizable bands, something along the lines of 2016 and 2017 I hope. We got David Ellefson's solo LP on July 19, Hatriot's Days Unto Darkness on July 26, Destruction's Born to Perish on August 9, the ever-interesting King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard have scheduled their first thrash album for August 16, and there is a strong possibility we will still get new releases this year from Annihilator, Anthrax, Believer, Exhorder, Exodus, Gojira, Havok, Sepultura, Toxic Holocaust, and Warbringer! We shall see.
Are you ready to hold the thrash flag high?
Have you heard any of the albums above? If so, what did you think? Also, if you know of other records I should have included on this list, or if you know about some other, exciting, upcoming thrash releases, tell us in the comments below!

WSDOT's Bridge Preservation Program combines cost effective actions and strategies to maximize the useful life of bridges. This work includes bridge seismic retrofit, repairs and rehabilitation, steel bridge painting, concrete deck rehabilitation, scour mitigation and bridge replacement.
The Seismic Retrofit program works to minimize and avoid catastrophic bridge failures by strengthening bridges and structures to better withstand earthquakes.
Bridge engineers inspect bridge elements above the foundations and then compare the capacity of those elements to the forces applied by an earthquake (the demand placed on the structure).
Columns (as shown above) are being wrapped with a steel jacket to contain and stabilize the concrete column which prevents cracking and possible failure during an earthquake.
The most common type of retrofit adds steel jackets around the columns and additional concrete-and-steel reinforcing to the pier caps (also known as a "bolster").
More than 900 bridges are part of the Bridge Seismic Retrofit Program. Retrofit priorities are based on seismic risk of a site, structural detail deficiencies and route importance.
We strengthen structures around the state based on what is most vulenerable to earthquakes. This is done either through installing steel jackets on columns, adding more structural supports or as an alternative method, using rebar wrapped with steel. Our largest structures, then any bridges without backup stability and finally anything that is an essential route to withstand the horizantal movement of earthquakes.
steel (as seen above) to withstand vertical forces caused by the ground motion.
WSDOT worked with the State Department of Emergency Management, local emergency planners and freight advocates to identify a network of essential state highways in the areas of Puget Sound with the largest predicted ground motion and the highest density of population. Focusing limited resources on these routes further reduces the risk of major damage. This network of state highways is identified as the Seismic Lifeline Routes. The Seismic Lifeline program tracks the status of seismic retrofits made to high and moderate-risk bridges in the Puget Sound area which has the highest risk of acceleration (See the Seismic Lifeline Routes Map on the back). Further prioritization will occur as the bridges on this network are retrofitted.
would prevent the concrete from crumbling.
Scour is the removal of soil from around bridge piers and abutments. Flowing water transports soils from around bridge piers and abutments and moves it down stream, leaving the bridge foundations exposed and in some cases undermined. Undermined bridge foundations can compromise the integrity of the structure and in some cases cause collapse. Scour is the leading cause of bridge failures in Washington state and nationwide. Of the 70 documented bridge failures in Washington state history, 43 were due to scour.
We have approximately 1,583 vehicular bridges and culverts over 20-feet in length that span over water. 262 of these bridges are considered "scour critical" which means there is potential for the bridge to be damaged by scour. WSDOT's efforts to ensure that these bridges are safe and haven't been damage by scour fall in to two categories, monitoring and response.
We perform routine inspections of its bridges at least once every two years. In some cases where there are specific concerns, bridge inspections are more frequent. During these inspections, the bridge inspectors observe conditions at the bridge piers and abutments as well as the waterway upstream and downstream of the bridge. Bridge scour conditions are recorded in the bridge inspection report. If significant scour is observed, the bridge inspector will call for a repair.
Where conditions are difficult to evaluate due to water depth or other conditions, the WSDOT Dive Team will perform an underwater inspection of bridge elements. Divers performing the underwater inspection are able to gather detailed information about scour conditions. Once again, if significant scour is observed, the bridge inspector will call for a repair.
Our scour critical bridges are monitored by WSDOT staff during flood events. The monitoring is conducted in accordance with a "Scour Plan of Action", which is a documented plan that has been prepared ahead of time. The plan of action includes a summary of the scour vulnerabilities and guidance for actions to be taken during flood events. Actions include monitoring bridges during and after flood events as well as closing bridges if conditions exceed a pre-determined threshold or if scour damage is suspected.
If scour damage has occurred that compromises the integrity of a bridge, the bridge is closed to traffic until repairs are made.
If scour has occurred but the damage does not compromise the integrity of the bridge, WSDOT will take action to repair the damage. Some repairs are completed by WSDOT Maintenance crews while others are completed under contract. Who completes the repair depends on several factors including what part of the State the bridge is located in, the nature of the repair, and the anticipated cost of the repair.
How were Bridge Scour Mitigation Measures completed in the past and how is it done today?
In years past, the majority of bridge scour repairs were completed by WSDOT maintenance crews. Repairs were completed quickly and efficiently at a relatively low cost. WSDOT maintenance crews were able to install and maintain scour countermeasures that significantly reduced the risk of scour damage to our bridge.
Today, the efforts required to obtain permits for bridge scour repairs preclude WSDOT maintenance crews from completing bridge scour repairs in many parts of the State. WSDOT maintenance crews in these areas don't have the staff or funding that would be required to obtain the necessary permits. So, most bridge scour repair projects are completed through the Bridge Scour Mitigation Program.
The WSDOT Bridge Scour Mitigation Program addresses only the worst bridge scour deficiencies by designing, permitting, and constructing bridge scour repairs under contract.
Identify Needs – Bridge inspection data is reviewed to identify bridges that have a bridge scour repair need.
Prioritize Needs – Once the list of needs is determined, the details of each case are reviewed and prioritized against each other on a statewide basis.
Program and Fund Projects – The funds that are available for bridge scour repairs are assigned to the top bridge scour needs. Usually only three or four bridge scour repair projects are programmed each biennium.
Design Repair – Our staff, including bridge engineers, hydraulic engineers, and environmental staff work together to design the repair and appropriate mitigation.
Obtain Permits – Our staff works to obtain permits from the appropriate entities to construct the repair. This process usually takes about two years.
Construction – The project is advertised and awarded to the Contractor with the lowest bid. Construction of most scour repairs typically takes less than a month.
Bridge scour is dynamic and conditions can change rapidly. There are many variables that affect the rate at which bridge scour happens. Two of the primary variables are soil type and water velocity. Some soils are more susceptible to scour than others. Loose unconsolidated soil is easily carried away while hard bedrock layers are generally not susceptible to scour. Also, high flow velocities scour away soils faster than lower velocities. A major cause of higher velocities near bridge piers is due to the accumulation of wood debris that floats down the river and gets hung up on the bridge. This wood debris can constrict the channel and cause localized areas of high velocity flow that scours away supporting soils.
Meeting the requirements of each entity is often very challenging, time consuming, and often results in added costs in construction, due to added constraints and required mitigation.
Because the process to complete scour repairs is expensive and lengthy (two year minimum), we can only address a few scour repairs each biennium. This means we can only react to only the worst needs through emergency scour repair projects.


In Grade Five, students will read a wide range of literature, including stories, plays, and poems. Additionally, they will read to learn information about history, the world, science, and other areas.
Writing tasks in Grade Five may include stories, essays, reports, and opinion papers. Please review the chart below to see a few examples of how your child will develop important writing skills across grade levels.

Songs And Music From The Motion Picture "She's The One"

This is more than your average rock & roll soundtrack album. A cohesive set of newly written songs with only minimal film-score padding, She's the One — the musical complement to the new movie by Edward Burns (the writer-director-star of The Brothers Mc-Mullen) — is a legitimate follow-up to Petty's last solo album, Wildflowers. Credited to Petty and his stalwart group the Heartbreakers, it is a fine mix of brainy pop and brawny rock that finds Petty synthesizing rather than compartmentalizing these two aspects of his musical persona.
She's the One also serves to remind how deceptively effortless good songwriting can be. A chiming, Byrds-trademark 12-string guitar decorates "Walls (Circus)," an evocation of lost California-sunshine innocence heightened by the playfully syncopated backing vocals of Lindsey Buckingham (harking back to his own Cali-pop heyday with Fleetwood Mac). Like a vintage Beach Boys single, the song fades at the end with the golden grandeur of a Pacific Coast sunset. On the darker side, Petty recalls the electrified frustration of Damn the Torpedoes in "Grew Up Fast" ("We grew up smashed/And we grew up alone"), then pursues the misfit theme with even more vigor in "Zero From Outer Space," a madcap garage rocker complete with cheesy harmonica and frantic, rattling tambourine. The close-harmony vocals and crunchy guitar in "Climb That Hill," co-written with Heartbreakers guitarist Mike Campbell, give the song a palpable air of tenseness and isolation, a la Neil Young's "The Loner." Fortunately, there is comic relief in Petty's choice of cover versions, the sardonic kiss-off songs "Change the Locks," by Lucinda Williams, and Beck's "Asshole."
But amid the impolite, love-gone-wrong songs, and despite the narrative obligations that go with soundtrack music, Petty keeps returning to what seems to be his broader theme for the album — an affection for California and its rich pop heritage, and the uneasy sense that both are in trouble. In "Hung Up and Overdue," the record's big production piece, he applies a subtle coat of neopsychedelic gloss to a languid melody and haiku-style lyrics that convey an underlying ennui: "We're overdue for a dream come true/ Long time, nothing new." With harmony vocals by Carl Wilson and a direct lyric quote from an old Beach Boys song, Petty's point is hard to miss. He still believes in the California dream and, in his music, is determined to do his best to keep it alive.
SUPERLIZZO


you were saying those retail/office shops outside the mall weren't built by iGB?
any source for this assumption?
I knew one of the previous owners of the land proposed to develop Syed Putra Mall, but nothing was built on the spot.
you can verify with those who have retired from igb and relevant department.
I did verify with friend. his boss told him IGB boss begged him to take 2 lots of shop office. I can ask my friend for his boss's full name to confirm the story.
now your turn, where is your source? can I get in touch with the persons that passed on the news to you??
Seriously forum is free for TCSS. No one can stop anyone to tcss. My take to all is JUST IGNORE THE RUBBISH STATEMENT. Dont let it get into you and no need to reply. Just treat her words invisible...let this keyboard heroin write for fun...all doom...dont dont dont down down down...why come here in the prop forum in first place haha...too bore in life maybe. To make it clear, nothing wrong to criticise..all of us will qccept it but not those rubbish statement that can easily plug from the air without solid justification.
If full name is what you want; you can ask Robert Tan Chung Meng. if you talk to him; can ask him to confirm this parcel was sold by dbkl at $X2/ft2.
people willing to pay 20 to 30rm for a mug of beer but cant afford to park at basement parking, which is free as of now.
yeah, inconsiderate drivers just simply parked on their own convenience.
you talked abt the land or the retail shops?
The land and how mv started. mv was built by igb; if you know tcn family, don't think there is any point in last 30 years, they need to beg buyers or anyone to buy.
my friend boss said so lah.......his arm was twisted by igb boss. he took 2 lots lah.....ended up became his bestest investment ever.
Just a personal experience to share with. I went to EKC mall during cny. While the layout and decorations may not be that impressive, overall experience is not bad at all. The entrance of car park is right next to the main road. There are good food to eat and indeed many customers to have lunch and dinner there. The mall is big enough with choice and variety which one is willing to meet friends there and not to mention the spot next to station which is accessible for those friends who choose not to drive. All my friends feel quite a good spot for gathering.
love how they spun the article and the savings in finishing the work compared to a normal manner. some parts look unique for now but I'm thinking of how it'll look a few years down the road.
No harm by sharing Bro.
I think even by a couple of months it will be an eyesore.
Anyone have the corridor pictures?

Q: How to check the condition $E(\bar{K})[n] \subseteq E(K)$ for pairing $e_n$? When constructing the Weil pairing $e_n$, it is required that $E(\bar{K})[n] \subseteq E(K)$,
where $E$ is a curve over field $K$, $\bar{K}$ is the field's algebraic closure and $G[n]$ are all the elements $g \in G$ with $ng = 0$. How does one check this condition. Are there curves $E$ that satisfy this condition for all $n$ or do we need to check for each $n$ individually?

Lately it seems that friends and I are constantly texting, facebooking, or emailing recipes to each other. There is something about someone in your circle saying "make this" that inspires me to immediately add it to our week's menu, while I could be perusing beautifully crafted meals on Pinterest for 30 minutes, pinning away, yet may not get around to making a single one of them. It is because of this I decided that during my 30 days of letter-writing for the Write_On Campaign, I will sending along a single Matrick and Eve recipe card to a few friends. I am so excited about this idea because when something is received in the mail and handwritten it is elevated from the everyday digital version. Although they likely contain the same information, one will be treasured and have a lifespan far past the other!
Other than weddings, showers and jury duty, when is our presence requested through a letter dropped in a mailbox? I love the "Good for One Coffee Date" notes by 9th Letterpress because it is the everyday hangout made more significant just because it is received on a cute card rather than a simple text. As a mom of two, evening coffee dates are the way I stay connected with friends, the real conversations filled with sharing our joys and discouragements over a hot cup. These times are incredibly significant to me, so maybe I should set the tone through ink on paper instead of through a screen.

Even More on the Geraldine Wolvin
Mangled Vessel Passages
"The Best of Ships along the Seaway"
Ship of the Month No. 103 MONTGOMERY
Additional Marine News
A surprise announcement made on August 8 by the Power Corporation of Canada revealed that the conglomerate has acquired a small interest in Canadian Pacific Ltd. and also has agreed, pending federal government approval, to sell the C.S.L. Group Inc. to Paul Martin, president of C.S.L., and Federal Commerce and Navigation Ltd. The selling price of C.S.L. was mentioned as being in the area of $195,000,000. It is unknown whether there will be any major changes in C.S.L. operations as a result of the transfer of ownership.
MARLHILL, sold for use as a grain storage barge in Mexico, as earlier reported, cleared Toronto on April 29 in tow of DANIEL McALLISTER. The same tug took LAC DES ILES out of Toronto on May 4 and, eventually, the two old lakers began the long tow down the east coast behind the tug IRVING BIRCH. However, at about 7:45 a.m. on May 30, MARLHILL foundered some 150 miles due east of Norfolk, Virginia. IRVING BIRCH apparently carried on with LAC DES ILES but the latter also foundered, her turn coming at 1:40 a.m. on June 1, as she went to the bottom in 240 feet of water, 61 nautical miles off Cape Henry Light, in a position described as 136.55.6 North by 74.44.2 West. No comment has yet been made concerning the cause of the loss of the two veterans.
Now in service across Lake Ontario between Oshawa and Oswego as a truck ferry is the roll-on/roll-off motorship LAKESPAN ONTARIO, (a) LADY CATHERINE. Nine years old, she was purchased in June by Lakespan Marine Inc., Oshawa, from the Golden West Shipping Company of Oslo, Norway, for whom she had run between Italy and North Africa. Lakespan is a joint venture of C.N. Marine Corp., Moncton, and Rideau Shipping Company Ltd., Ottawa. It hopes that the ship, with a capacity of 65 trailers per trip, will attract business from shippers who wish to avoid the long drive around the lake. Also planning to enter the Lake Ontario ferry service soon is Ro-Ro Ontario Inc., an affiliate of Sherwood Marine Inc., which intends to carry trailers between Toronto and Somerset, N.Y. Both operators have expressed a need for relief from a recently-imposed increase in federal taxes on marine fuel in order to make the services more attractive to shippers.
A recent entry into service is the first straight-deck bulk carrier built for the Great Lakes since the construction of OTTERCLIFFE HALL in 1969. The 730-foot LAKE WABUSH, launched this spring by Collingwood Shipyards Ltd., passed her trials without difficulty and was duly accepted by Nipigon Transport Ltd., her port of registry being Edmonton, Alberta. She passed up the St. Mary's River on her maiden voyage on July 18 and, on her arrival at Thunder Bay, was drydocked there for the final touches. She is much better in appearance than other recently-built stemwinders and has some natural curves in her hull, especially in her bow and stern. She generally resembles ALGOWOOD except that she lacks unloading gear. Meanwhile, Nipigon has sent its LAKE WINNIPEG and its affiliate Carryore's MENIHEK LAKE to Port McNicoll with storage grain cargoes, an indication of the "softness" of the export grain market.
An August 8 press announcement indicated that Misener Transportation has contracted for the construction at Govan, Glasgow, Scotland, for the construction of two 730-foot straight-deck bulk carriers for delivery in 1983, as well as a third, similar, vessel for Pioneer Shipping Ltd., whose fleet is managed by Misener. No other details are yet available. It is noteworthy that after so many years of the supremacy of self-unloaders in the Canadian lake fleet, the straight-decker is once again becoming popular, with Misener and Pioneer joining Nipigon Transport and C.S.L. in ordering such vessels for the grain trade.
The pilothouse and texas were removed on May 27 from the Goderich Elevator and Transit Company's storage barge D. B. WELDON (II), (a) JAY C. MORSE, (b) SHELTER BAY (II), (c) SHELTER B., and were set on the wharf near the company elevator for use as a marine museum. This is particularly appropriate in view of Goderich's marine heritage and the local availability of marine artifacts.
At long last, the restored SEGWUN is back in service. This July, 1981, photo by Dyke Cobb shows her at Gravenhurst.
Now back in regular service at last, for the first time since 1958, is the Muskoka Lakes passenger steamer SEGWUN, (a) NIPISSING. Restored through the assistance of funds provided by the Ontario Roadbuilders' Association and the Ontario government, the vessel not only is once again operative, but has been made a true showpiece, all the more impressive in that she is the last of the once-large Muskoka Lakes steamboat fleet to remain in existence at all. SEGWUN entered service during July and is now making a combination of excursions out of Gravenhurst on Lake Muskoka as well as longer trips up into Lakes Joseph and Rosseau. Demand for tickets for her various trips has been very heavy and persons intending to travel aboard SEGWUN would be well advised to reserve well ahead of time.
The chemical tanker SUNCOR CHIPPEWA, recently completed for Sunchem Shipping Inc. of Toronto, called at Toronto on her maiden voyage on May 29, upbound light for Sarnia. After the appropriate ceremonies, she cleared Toronto late that evening and is now in service. Designed for service between the Sunoco plant at Sarnia and ports of northern Europe, particularly Rotterdam, she looks like any other medium-sized salt water tanker with cabins aft. In honour of her addition to the great Canadian deep-sea fleet, she has been registered at Monrovia, Liberia!
The United States Steel Corp. activated a rather larger fleet in 1981 than had earlier been anticipated. Of the "Bradley" self-unloaders, all are operating, including the refurbished IRVIN L. CLYMER. Of the rest of the fleet, only GOTT, SPEER, BLOUGH, ANDERSON, CALLAWAY, CLARKE, FAIRLESS, FERBERT, FRASER, OLDS and VOORHEES were originally placed in service, but these were later joined by SEWELL AVERY, ROBERT C. STANLEY, THOMAS W. LAMONT, EUGENE P. THOMAS and HOMER D. WILLIAMS. All of these are still in operation, except for THOMAS and WILLIAMS which went back to the wall late in July. Further operation of the WILLIAMS would seem to be very unlikely.
U.S. Steel has finally decided to proceed with the self-unloader conversions of CASON J. CALLAWAY, ARTHUR M. ANDERSON and PHILIP R. CLARKE. The work will be accomplished very quickly and the contract for the work has gone to Fraser Shipyards. CALLAWAY will go to the yard on September 1 and will be back in service during October, 1981. The other two (order unknown), will go in during October and December, respectively, and both will be ready for service in the spring of 1982. Much of the work has been prefabricated by Fraser to save time whilst the ships are in the yard.
Lost off Colombia earlier in 1981 was TRANSTREAM, seen here below W. S. C. Lock 1 in a June 13, 1964, photo by J. H. Bascom.
The end came early in 1981 for a former lake tanker which had served for more than a decade in Caribbean waters. WITSUPPLY, (a) TRANSITER (42), (b) TRANSTREAM (69), had long operated on the lakes for Transit Tankers and Terminals Ltd., but had been sold to Challenger Ltd. in 1969 for use as a water tanker in the Caribbean. More recently owned by Witressel Corp. of Panama, she had been sold to interests in Cartagena, Colombia, for scrap. On February 17, 1981, while bound for Cartagena under tow, she capsized in heavy weather off Cabo de la Vela, Colombia, and foundered in the approximate position 12.12 North by 72.11 West.
The necessary boiler repairs were completed aboard SOO RIVER TRADER during May by Herb Fraser and Associates while the veteran steamer lay at the old Law stone dock at Humberstone, and she cleared Port Colborne upbound on June 2nd. During her period of inactivity, the TRADER was completely repainted and she now appears quite spiffy, with her name emblazoned across the bridge and boilerhouse rails.
The Great Lakes Towing Company has apparently decided that it does require its veteran tug AMERICA, and has begun to repair her at its Cleveland yard. AMERICA, built in 1897 and rebuilt several times during the intervening years, was severely damaged by fire whilst lying at Detroit on November 1, 1979, and it had earlier been supposed that Great Lakes Towing would not have sufficient demand for the tug to warrant the cost of repairs.
As an aftermath of the sinking of the tug LAUREN CASTLE last autumn after her collision with the tanker AMOCO WISCONSIN on Lake Michigan, it is reported that the tug's master, Capt. R. Bedell, has been censured by the U.S. Coast Guard on several counts of negligence and misconduct in connection with the operation of LAUREN CASTLE.
Yet another tug has foundered on Lake Michigan, the 1908-built EDWARD E. GILLEN, (a) ERASTUS C. KNIGHT (18), (b) AUBREY (64), owned by the Edward E. Gillen Company of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. While undergoing tests in tow of the icebreaker U.S.C.G. WESTWIND on June 3, the GILLEN capsized and sank some 2 1/2 miles off Milwaukee. Her crew of 4 was rescued by a Coast Guard lifeboat. We do not know whether the tug may be a salvage proposition.
The Halco self-unloader HALLFAX has reached the end of her usefulness to her owner. Built in 1962 at Glasgow by William Hamilton and Son Ltd., and lengthened and deepened four years later, HALLFAX has had anything but a glorious life on the lakes. Beset by assorted woes and accidents over the years, she was retired at the close of the 1980 season and efforts are presently under way to sell her for Caribbean service. It is also reported that Halco has recently sold its salt water tankers COASTAL TRANSPORT and CANSO TRANSPORT which were purchased by Hall in 1979 and 1980, respectively.
The Manitoulin Island ferry CHI-CHEEMAUN, owned by the Ontario Northland Transportation Commission and managed by the Owen Sound Transportation Company Ltd., sustained serious damage in a grounding on June 29. Arriving at South Baymouth from Tobermory, she struck bottom in a dense fog and damaged her hull and propellor. She was immediately taken out of service, much to the dismay of passengers waiting at South Baymouth for the southbound trip, many of whom found difficulty in obtaining accommodations in the rather remote area before travelling onwards by the longer land route. As no alternate ferry was available, it was necessary to get CHI-CHEEMAUN to a shipyard as soon as possible. She could not go to Collingwood, as the drydock there is closed during shipyard improvements. It was proposed to tow her to Thunder Bay, but another boat was on the dock there. As a result, she was eventually towed to Bay Shipbuilding at Sturgeon Bay, where repairs took about a week.
On June 12, 1981, Dome Petroleum Ltd. purchased all shares of Davie Shipbuilding Ltd. and thus acquired control of the Davie yard at Lauzon as well as the Branch Lines Ltd. tanker fleet which Davie controlled. Dome plans to expand Davie operations so that it can handle its regular shipyard business as well as the construction of drilling equipment and large tankers for Dome's well operations in the Beaufort Sea and on the east coast. The Branch Lines tankers will be operated by "another company", but it is not yet known whether this means that they will be run by another Dome subsidiary or whether they will be sold to another operator.
The Duluth, Missabe and Iron Range Railway has at last retired from service its famous 85-year-old steam tug EDNA G. For longer than most observers might care to remember, EDNA G. has lent a hand to arriving and departing ore boats at Two Harbors, Minnesota, and her melodious triple-chime whistle has been a joy to the ear. Retirement will not take her to the scrapper's yard, however, for she is destined to become a static display ashore on the Two Harbors waterfront.
Sherwood Marine Inc. has had an active year in the Toronto area excursion business. CAYUGA II has been busy with Niagara trips and evening charters on Toronto Bay, while SHIAWASSIE has done many excursions. BLUE WATER BELLE, renamed CALEDONIA, has been the recipient of many large charters, some stolen away from TRILLIUM, and she has done better this year than in any of her previous seasons on Lake Ontario. All three Sherwood boats are now painted all white with large multi-coloured stripes running diagonally down their sides amidships. The design rather reminds one of a Pittsburgh streetcar...
So far, 1981 has been a most peculiar year for the Toronto Island ferries of the Metropolitan Toronto Parks Department, a year frought with unusual occurrences, staff problems, and a woeful and very apparent lack of equipment maintenance. On the other hand, it has also seen the completion of a new dock for TRILLIUM at Centre Island, just to the east of the usual ferry slip, and the big sidewheeler first began regular overload traffic service to Centre on Saturday, July 4. On weekdays, she remains in charter-only service, while charters that she would normally have taken on weekends are now diverted to the Sherwood Marine steamer CALEDONIA.
TRILLIUM was the "culprit" in a widely-publicized accident which occurred about 9:30 p.m. on June 2. Returning to her Yonge Street dock after an early-evening charter, her engine failed to stop or go astern, apparently due to a hydraulic lock in her reverse gear. Lines could not be secured as she passed her normal mooring spot and, after glancing off several of the Simpson glass-topped tour boats docked in the slip for the night, she struck the portside amidships of the restaurant ship NORMAC. Damage to TRILLIUM was minimal but NORMAC sustained a large dent in her portside plating, a small fire in wiring running down her side having been extinguished by TRILLIUM's crew. Small holes were punched in NORMAC's starboard side by the timbers which secured her to the dock and fire department crews pumped NORMAC dry until patches could be fitted. NORMAC's diners were safely removed, although two persons suffered minor injuries. Then, in the late afternoon of June 16, exactly two weeks later, NORMAC suddenly took water and listed to port. John Letnik, her owner, happened to be aboard at the time and got ashore safely as his restaurant listed farther and finally came to rest on the bottom, submerged to the upper deck and listing far to port. The cause of the sinking has not yet been determined nor have salvage operations begun. While Letnik proceeds with legal action, diners are being accommodated aboard Captain John's other vessel, the former Yugoslav cruise ship JADRAN. The conclusion of this matter will be watched with considerable interest...
One of the most surprising news items of 1981 concerned an attempt on May 19 to blow up the hydrofoils QUEEN OF TORONTO, PRINCE OF NIAGARA and PRINCESS OF THE LAKES while they lay at their winter berth on the east side of Port Dalhousie harbour. Large quantities of dynamite were found on the vessels by fit-out crews, as well as a timing device which had malfunctioned. The port was sealed off by police, the explosives removed, and an investigation launched into the would-be bombing. So far, no charges have been laid. As noted previously, Royal Hydrofoil Cruises was denied permission to operate from Toronto to Niagara-on-the-Lake during 1981. As a result, two hydrofoils remain idle at Port Dalhousie, while QUEEN OF TORONTO passed up the Welland Canal on May 25, bound for Detroit. We understand that she has not yet found suitable employment there, despite several attempts.
The Newfoundland powered schooner CLARENVILLE arrived at Toronto on July 2 and stopped over for about two weeks en route to Owen Sound where she will serve as a restaurant to replace the lost AVALON VOYAGER II. The wooden-hulled CLARENVILLE is almost an exact sistership to the boat which was lost on Lake Huron late last autumn. She was given added cabins and all of her restaurant equipment in a rebuilding which was done before her departure from the east coast.
A survey of the former steam double-ended paddle ferry G. A. BOECKLING by the United States Salvage Association Inc. on behalf of The Friends of the Boeckling group of Sandusky, Ohio, indicates that the 72-year-old boat is in sufficiently good condition to warrant drydocking at Sturgeon Bay and the tow to Sandusky for restoration. The survey was completed with a view to having the BOECKLING restored as a static display, but it is, of course, hoped that the ferry will one day be able to return to service on Sandusky Bay, where she operated for so many years.
The former Columbia Transportation self-unloader J. R. SENSIBAR, acquired this spring by Johnstone Shipping Ltd., Toronto, was drydocked by AmShip at Toledo and, on June 19, arrived at the old Consolidation Coal Company dock at Windsor in tow of BARBARA ANN and DARYL C. HANNAH. She was refitted there and entered service during late July as (c) CONALLISON. She made her first appearance at Toronto on August 9 and, at that time, only her stack was painted in Johnstone colours. The stack design is the same as that carried by the canaller CONDARRELL. The latter, meanwhile, (a) D. C. EVEREST (81), has been busy since her entry into service during mid-May, but she has had more than her share of misfortune. During June, she lost the boom of her crane whilst unloading a cargo of broken castings at the River Rouge Ford plant, and the last 75 tons had to be scooped out by a shore-based derrick. CONDARRELL eventually made her way to Toronto for repairs, stopping over there en route to Newfoundland with a cargo of bulk chemicals. She returned to Toronto in early July for repairs to her bow after an altercation with the wall at Lock 2 in the Welland Canal. She retains her blue hull and her blue stack with a white band and black top, but on the white band has now been added a raised white square on which appears a large brown beaver and the word "Johnstone" in black letters.
Now that her charter on the east coast has concluded, FORT ST. LOUIS has returned to the C.S.L. package freight service. For the first time in many years, she passed up the Welland Canal on May 21. She runs the package freight trade this year along with FORT CHAMBLY and FORT WILLIAM, with FORT HENRY and FORT YORK lying idle. Of course, FRENCH RIVER has been sold out of the fleet.
The Interlake Steamship Company's newest self-unloader, the 1,013-foot WILLIAM J. DeLANCEY, entered service on May 10 and made her first trip upbound at the Soo on May 11. Her first cargo was taconite from Silver Bay, with which she arrived at the Lorain ore terminal of Republic Steel on May 16. She is generally similar in appearance to JAMES R. BARKER and MESABI MINER, although she is somewhat larger and more advanced as regards equipment.
AMERICAN REPUBLIC, the shuttle ore carrier built by Bay Shipbuilding for the American Steamship Company to run from Lorain to the Republic Steel plant up the Cuyahoga River at Cleveland, was christened at her builder's yard on May 16. She ran trials on the 18th and cleared on May 21 to load ore at Escanaba. She made her maiden arrival at Cleveland on May 24 and had no trouble negotiating the winding Cuyahoga with her special equipment or backing herself down the river on departure without the assistance of tugs. She will, however, return to the shipyard this winter for additional bracing in her superstructure to correct problems encountered during the unloading process.
BayShip's Hull 726, the 1,000-foot self-unloader COLUMBIA STAR, was christened on May 8 by Mrs. John Dwyer, wife of the president of the Oglebay Norton Company. The ship entered service after trials and made her first trip up the Soo Canal on May 31. Her principal trade will be the carriage of taconite to the Lake Front Docks at Oregon, Ohio, just outside Toledo harbour.
Another recent completion by BayShip was the self-unloader conversion of COURTNEY BURTON, also for Columbia Transportation. The steamer was floated from the drydock on April 18 and cleared Sturgeon Bay on May 23. Her conversion is much more satisfactory from an aesthetic viewpoint than have been several other machinery-aft jobs, for the equipment is simple and functional, and does not block the after superstructure of the vessel from sight.
The tug TRIO BRAVO, the former JOHN ROEN V, was raised from her watery berth in Florida on March 24. It will be recalled that TRIO BRAVO and TRIO TRADO (the former barge and carferry MAITLAND NO. 1), both headed southwards to new careers in the Gulf of Mexico, but that the barge foundered off the east coast during January, while the tug sank at Port Everglades on January 21, shortly after her arrival there. Her cabins were demolished in the accident.
After much delay, the McAsphalt Industries Ltd. tug TUSKER collected her ex-Exxon barge at Lake Charles, Louisiana, during early July, and returned with it to the lakes. The barge, renamed MCASPHALT 201, made her maiden arrival at Toronto on August 2 and is presently being towed by TUSKER in the Quebec City - Toronto asphalt trade.
Bay Shipbuilding's Hull 729, a 530-foot barge built for the Universal American Shipping Company, will reportedly be named ENERGY FREEDOM.
The Gaelic Tug Boat Company of Detroit has added yet another tug to its growing fleet. Purchased from New York owners is LEWIS NO. 8, 80 by 24, which cleared New York for the lakes late in May. She has been renamed TIPPERARY (II) for her new duties.
SIR JAMES DUNN suffered no lasting effects from her April 10 grounding in the St. Mary's River above Mission Point. Downbound with grain for Trois-Rivieres, she stranded on the Bayfield Turn but was released the following day by W. J. IVAN PURVIS, MISEFORD, STE. MARIE I and II, OLIVE L. MOORE, and BARBARA ANN. With damage to her sidetanks, she resumed her trip and then went to the shipyard at Thunder Bay for repairs.
The Chessie System received approval in June from the Interstate Commerce Commission to abandon its carferry service between Ludington and Manitowoc, although it is thought that interested parties will appeal the decision. The "Kewaunee Plan" seems to be coming to fruition, for this abandonment would leave the Ludington-Kewaunee route as the only Chessie service on Lake Michigan. Meanwhile, Michigan authorities gave approval for a one-year subsidized demonstration of passenger service between Ludington and Milwaukee, over the route dropped last year by Chessie. Begun during July, the service is operated by the chartered Chessie steam ferry BADGER.
The Straits of Mackinac steam carferry CHIEF WAWATAM has been very busy this spring and summer, running a greatly increased schedule of sailings in order to keep up with the eastward movement of lumber shipments via rail. It has been many moons since the CHIEF has been so active.
A most beautiful visitor to Toronto during early June was the sailing vessel BLUENOSE II which ventured away from her Nova Scotia home waters on a goodwill tour. Resplendent in fresh paint and with all her sails set, she made quite a sight as she sailed in and out of port during the better part of a week. Between excursions, she entertained visitors aboard whilst she lay alongside the Harbourfront Park wharf.
The C.S.L. self-unloader HOCHELAGA seems once again to have fallen victim to boom problems. She is presently out of service at Thunder Bay and is now held as the fleet's spare self-unloader.
The tug JOHN PURVES and barge MEL WILLIAM SELVICK have been frequent visitors to the Welland Canal this year, carrying cement upbound from Clarkson. SELVICK had some bad luck on May 9, however; upbound below Port Robinson, the starboard stringer cable between tug and barge broke and the tow put in to the old canal above "Bridge 12" to fit a new line. Scarcely had the tow got underway again, however, when it met the downbound J. N. McWATTERS near Mile 14. The suction of the passing laker caused the starboard tow cable to break again and the SELVICK swung to port, striking the port quarter of McWATTERS. Damage was minimal but the canal was temporarily closed, with the barge swung crossways to the channel while a new cable was fitted. Eventually the tow got underway again and moved to the Welland dock for inspection. The SELVICK's green hull colour has now been replaced by an attractive grey shade with a white forecastle, reflecting the interest of the Dundee Cement Company in the vessel.
Four Upper Lakes Shipping boats have spent the summer in idleness at Toronto. POINTE NOIRE did not fit out this spring and remained along the north side of Pier 35. GORDON C. LEITCH arrived on May 12 and laid up at the same pier. RED WING arrived on May 15 and WHEAT KING on May 20, this pair going to the turning basin. Several other U.L.S. boats have laid up in other ports. This inactivity seems strange in view of the operations of other Canadian fleets, but resulted from the U.S. coal strike, a slackening of grain exports, and increased fuel costs.
Port Weller Dry Docks Ltd. has been busy this summer with its usual complement of repair jobs and inspections. CANADIAN PROSPECTOR was at the yard from April 28 to May 19 for a refit and repair of grounding damage. Hull 67, the new self-unloader CANADIAN PIONEER, was floated off the graving dock on May 16 and was taken from the drydock to the fit-out berth on May 27. On May 19, the keel of Hull 68 was laid on the "shelf", this being an as-yet-unnamed icebreaker for delivery during 1982 to the Canadian Coast Guard.
The Interlake Steamship Company's straight-decker SAMUEL MATHER, which did not fit out at the beginning of the 1981 season, is now in service. She passed up the Soo on her first trip of the year on June 15. In a similar move, Columbia Transportation fitted out the straight-decker WILLIAM A. REISS and self-unloader CRISPIN OGLEBAY during June. A slight upturn in business conditions is credited for the reactivation of these boats.
Westdale Shipping's SILVERDALE has now been given the black forecastle and white rail which most boats of that fleet have carried in recent years. The 56-year-old steamer, (a) GLENEAGLES, was purchased from C.S.L. in 1978 and, ever since, had retained her old white forecastle. With the repainting of SILVERDALE, the only ship still active in the fleet with a white forecastle is LEADALE (II), the former BoCo self-unloader JOHN A. KLING.
The Ann Arbor's Lake Michigan carferry VIKING was drydocked at Sturgeon Bay during May and left the shipyard on May 18 wearing new black and orange colours. Perhaps this new colour scheme is in preparation for Hallowe'en...
Certain additional information is now available concerning lakers which were sold during 1980 for scrapping overseas:
ALVA C. DINKEY was purchased by Francisco Nata Cuesta, who began scrapping at El Ferrol, Spain, on December 15, 1980.
GOVERNOR MILLER was purchased by Miguel Partins, who began scrapping at Vigo, Spain, on November 28, 1980.
THOMAS F. PATTON, CHARLES M. WHITE and TOM M. GIRDLER were purchased by the Metal Scrap Trade Corporation Ltd. of India, and scrapping was done by the Haryama Steel Company. Arrival date for GIRDLER, in tow of HANSEAT, was December 13, 1980.
The St. Lawrence Seaway Authority has called for tenders on the final phase of the Welland Canal widening north of Port Robinson. Meanwhile, no decision has yet been made on plans advanced by E. S. Fox Ltd. for the building of a shipyard on the stub of the old canal above "Steelton Gap", although there has been a suggestion that the Canada Starch Company Ltd. might like to build a plant at the other end of the old canal below Humberstone.
The former steamer PETER A. B. WIDENER has returned to the lakes, much to the surprise of observers who thought that she would never come back from her unfortunate trip to Montreal last fall. Upbound in tow of BARBARA ANN and two McKeil tugs, she arrived off Port Weller on May 6 but her canal passage was delayed by inclement weather. Her destination was Buffalo but she was subsequently towed to Chicago during late July. Meanwhile, North American Towing, a new affiliate of Seaway Towing, has brought three recently-purchased east coast tugs to the lakes, all arriving during July. TROJAN and TRITON will be used at Chicago, while MARY L. McALLISTER will join SEAWAY NO. 1 and the reengined DOLOMITE at the Soo, with STE. MARIE I and STE. MARIE II moving to take up new duties at Duluth.

Oskar Blues Death By Coconut is an English style Porter, 6.5% ABV. They actually call this an Irish Porter on the can, but I have no idea what that means, or why coconut is involved in anything from Ireland. If anyone can explain, please let me know.
This porter pours with an excellent dark, dark brown color and tan head. The aroma is strong with oily coconut, much like the tanning oils I remember being popular as a child years ago. The taste brings in an excellent balance of chocolate and fresh coconut, sweet but not too sweet. A slight burst of hops brings a touch of bitter to the finish. I'd love for this to be a bit thicker and sweeter overall, but in some ways it's simplicity is what makes it so easy to drink.
This isn't a complex beer, and I have had richer and more exciting coconut chocolate ales, but I am finding this more and more engaging with each sip.

P-Solve reappointed as investment adviser by Samworth Brothers Superannuation Scheme
Press Release | P-Solve
P-Solve, the investment consultancy and fiduciary manager, has been re-appointed by the Samworth Brothers Limited Superannuation Scheme as its investment adviser.
P-Solve had previously advised trustees of the £450m defined benefit pension scheme, which is one of the UK's largest food manufacturers, from 2009 to 2015.
The Samworth appointment comes after P-Solve was recently awarded a multi-scheme mandate from Kier Group, which had previously used P-Solve across one of its six schemes.
Commenting on the appointments Ajeet Manjrekar, co-Head of P-Solve said: "These appointments come as a result of a strong relationship with the Trustees and a commitment to bring a pro-active, engaged approach to investment consulting, in a governance friendly way. We are delighted to be working with the broader Kier Schemes and Samworth once again and look forward to helping them navigate markets and to deliver on return needs."
Commenting on the appointment of P-Solve, Neil Wright, Chairman of the Trustees at Samworth said: "Having previously worked with P-Solve we knew they had a high quality investment proposition and team to advise the Trustees on their journey to achieving their funding objectives.
Having changed advisors in 2015 for reasons unrelated to the P-Solve performance and team, it became clear to us that P-Solve remained the best investment consultant for us and we therefore got back in touch. We are very excited to be working with the team at P-Solve as we have great faith in their ability to guide us on our investment strategy for many years to come".

Q: Constraints Issue with alert popover quick one here. I have tried setting a breakpoint and I can't seem to see where the issue is coming from. So here's the code:
It's a popover alert button that presents a constraint issue when clicked.
private lazy var SocialBtn: UIButton = {
        let button = UIButton(type: .custom)
        button.setTitle(" + ", for: .normal)

        button.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
        button.titleLabel?.font = UIFont.boldSystemFont(ofSize: 30)
        button.setTitleColor(.red, for: .normal)
        button.addTarget(self, action: #selector(btnPressed), for: .touchUpInside)
        return button
    }()

here is how I set up the button:
 @objc private func btnPressed(_ sender: UIButton) {

        let alert = UIAlertController(title: nil, message: nil, preferredStyle: .actionSheet)
        alert.modalPresentationStyle = .popover

        let image = UIImage(named: "instagram")
        let imageView = UIImageView()
        imageView.image = image
        imageView.contentMode = .scaleAspectFit
        imageView.frame =  CGRect(x: 25, y: 12, width: 35, height: 35)
        alert.view.addSubview(imageView)

        let image1 = UIImage(named: "tripadvisor")
        let imageView1 = UIImageView()
        imageView1.image = image1
        imageView1.contentMode = .scaleAspectFit
        alert.view.addSubview(imageView1)
        imageView1.frame = CGRect(x: 25, y: 60, width: 40, height: 50)

        let shareExternal = UIAlertAction(title: NSLocalizedString("Tripadvisor", comment: ""), style: .default) { action in

            if let url = URL(string: self.link1) {
                if UIApplication.shared.canOpenURL(url) {
                    UIApplication.shared.open(url, options: [:])
                }
            }
        }
        let shareInApp = UIAlertAction(title: "Instagram", style: .default)   {
            action in

            print("Insta")

            if let url = URL(string: self.link2) {
                if UIApplication.shared.canOpenURL(url) {
                    UIApplication.shared.open(url, options: [:])
                }
            }
        }

        let cancel = UIAlertAction(title: "Cancel", style: .cancel)   {
            action in

            print("cancel")
        }

        alert.addAction(shareInApp)
        alert.addAction(shareExternal)
        alert.addAction(cancel)

        if let presenter = alert.popoverPresentationController
        {
            presenter.sourceView = SocialBtn
            presenter.sourceRect = SocialBtn.bounds
        }

        present(alert, animated: true, completion: nil)
    }

When I click the button the issue given to me is:
Unable to simultaneously satisfy constraints.
    Probably at least one of the constraints in the following list is one you don't want.
    Try this:
        (1) look at each constraint and try to figure out which you don't expect;
        (2) find the code that added the unwanted constraint or constraints and fix it.
(
    "<NSLayoutConstraint:0x283694e60 UIView:0x116024990.width == - 16   (active)>"
)

Will attempt to recover by breaking constraint
<NSLayoutConstraint:0x283694e60 UIView:0x116024990.width == - 16   (active)>

Make a symbolic breakpoint at UIViewAlertForUnsatisfiableConstraints to catch this in the debugger.
The methods in the UIConstraintBasedLayoutDebugging category on UIView listed in <UIKitCore/UIView.h> may also be helpful.

Please point me in the right direction.

At St Peter's Catholic Primary School, we have a distinctiveness in that we seek to represent the Gospel teachings of Jesus Christ and the teaching of the Catholic Church, as we are determined to grow the talents of everyone in our community.
As a school, in partnership with our community, we embrace and champion the British values of democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty, mutual respect and tolerance of those of different faiths and beliefs.
Children at St Peter's Catholic Primary School are encouraged to have a voice. Opportunities to stand and vote for school council representatives are available to the children and the opinions of all are valued and welcomed.
We started working in 2015 with The Young Democracy Company in order to develop a more meaningful and wider reaching pupil voice programme. Children who are voted onto the School Council will become "Gamechangers" and will receive bespoke support in order for them to carry out their duties and to raise the level of political Literacy throughout the school.
All the learning we do at St Peter's Catholic Primary School is embedded through the teachings of the Gospels which are woven through all aspects of curriculum and school life. Respect for law and order begins as the children enter the school and respect themselves, each other, the property of the school, their place in it and that of the wider community.

Doctor Who, as directed by Michel Bay.
This episode is a super cut of Episodes 47 and 48, comprising the entirety of The Invasion, which was written by Peter Bryant and aired in November and December of 1968. It was based on an idea by Kit Pedler.
Any other references belong to their respective owners, no copyright infringement is intended by this podcast.
The Doctor Who title music was originally composed by Ron Grainer. The version used in this episode was arranged by Delia Derbyshire.
Episode 48: Revive the Russians!
Revive Russia would be a good band name. Dibs!
This week Kiyan and Dylan complete The Invasion episodes 5-8. These episodes aired in December of 1968. Like episodes 1-4, they were written by Peter Bryant and were based on an idea by Kit Pedler.
Episode 47: What if Internet Explorer is a Cover?
I knew it! Microsoft is behind everything!
This week Kiyan and Dylan watched only the first 4 episodes of The Invasion. They did this because that although they claim they have a TARDIS, they actually do not, and therefore have a limited amount of time during the week to watch episodes. The Invasion was written by Peter Bryant and the first 4 episodes aired in November of 1968. Like the Moonbase and The Wheel in Space, it was based on an idea by Kit Pedler.
This week Kiyan and Dylan wrap up season 5 with The Wheel in Space, featuring the return of the Cybermen, again! It was written by David Whitaker, based on an idea by Kit Pedler, and it aired in April-June of 1968.
Do you wanna build a Cyberman?
This week Kiyan and Dylan leap into season 5 and discuss The Tomb of the Cybermen, written by Kit Pedler and Gerry Davis. It aired in September of 1967. Featuring a discussion of prospective Second Doctor character development.
And so closes the era of the first.
This week Kiyan and Dylan take a long, mildly emotional look back at the First Doctor's run after watching The Tenth Planet, his final serial. It was written by Kit Pedler, with some assistance from Gerry Davis, and it aired in October of 1966.

I do like blogging and blog hopping, and always drooling to the delicous food my blog friends have posted in their place.
But have to admit even I though I enjoy all this, I did enjoy my break from all that.
Daughter had 10 days of holiday , most of the time the weather was cold and horrible. In the whole 10 days we went once for a long walk.
We also went to see the University KU Leuven which our daughter is going to learn from October this year.
It was so exciting to see so many young adults, they were eveyr where, the coffee shops and , snack bars, restraunts every where we could see them.
Some of the buildings were really old. It seems it was founded in 1425.
She could go and sit for lessons for 2 hrs and while she was doing that we explored the town and to my delight I found this 2 beautiful cooking shops.
Now to the recipe, made this cup cake on Valentines day.
It is a recipe from Matha Stewart, we all loved it, it was a really light cake, ofcourse the addition of buttercream I am not counting.
Did the same recipe, I halfed the measurment as 30 cupcake is a bit too much for us and also just added some red colour to the butter cream.
In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter until smooth and creamy, 2 to 3 minutes. With mixer on low speed, add 6 cups sugar, milk, and vanilla; mix until light and fluffy. If necessary, gradually add remaining 2 cups sugar to reach desired consistency.

So what makes Country Treks so special?
THE HORSES AND PONIES- they are simply the best that money can buy! Schoolmasters that can teach you to jump a course of show jumps, or safe ponies that can give you your first gallop across a stubble field. We pride ourselves in the quality of our equine team. Take a look at 'meet the horses' and you will soon see why!
THE INSTRUCTORS- they are amazing. We have 4 UKCC Level 2 Accredited coaches with fantastic teaching ability and knowledge to make sure the pony camp not only builds confidence but gains personal skills. We understand pony camp (we've been doing it for 20 years) and make sure we deliver each individual the holiday of a lifetime! Year after year we have pony campers returning!
THE SCENERY- we are set in the beautiful South Shropshire countryside in our own 27 acre nature reserve complete with our own lake, woodland and mini cross country course. Our trail rides and hacking encompass some fabulous off road riding including meeting herds of wild ponies on the hill and other gorgeous scenic routes.
THE FRIENDSHIPS- pony campers love the camaraderie and often form lifelong friendships with their new campers. All for the shared passion that is horses. The evenings are equally important and eating in our dining hall and the evening activities are all fantastic which offer team building and new experiences which form the memories that will last a life time too!
THE VARIETY- We really do give our pony campers a chance to try everything. Each small group can help plan with their instructors the timetable for the week. We do it all! Lessons, hacks, trail rides, picnic rides, jumping, cross country, gymkhana, polo cross, western, we even have driving and miniature pony demos. There is never a dull moment with the highlight (of course) being the shows and competitions!
SAFETY- before you book you may want to reassure yourself of our impeccable attention to safety! I own and run the centre with my husband (for over 30 years) and we live here! It's a family home with cabin style accommodation attached to our house. Each camp has two leaders who take over once the equine day is finished. They are on 24hr duty. I am most happy to talk personally with any parents or you are most welcome to come and visit the centre. Our best adverts are our past pony campers and their parents. Take a look at our testimonials page for more details.
CATERING- the pony camp is fully catered for by our very own chef who makes some of the best homemade meals around and the homemade cakes are to die for! Special diets can be catered for.
SLEEPING FACILITIES- the accommodation is either twin rooms or three bedded accommodation different age groups will be separated accordingly! The rooms are spacious and no doubt will accommodate plenty of 'chatting space' for those evening 'pre sleep' discussions! We have suitable sleeping facilities especially for older teenagers so they can enjoy a slightly later finish of an evening. We can also accommodate groups of teenagers on our campsite.
Accommodation is currently under a very exciting re vamp, the changes are massive and you are sure to love them! Details to follow…..
5 Day camp – £435 per person.
