Civic Amenities Act
See also: The history of conservation areas.
Introduced in 1967, the Civic Amenities Act was 'An Act to make further provision for the protection and improvement of buildings of architectural or historic interest and of the character of areas of such interest; for the preservation and planting of trees; and for the orderly disposal of disused vehicles and equipment and other rubbish.'
50 years on, heritage and planning consultant Kathryn Davies considers its impact, implementation and future.
The greatest achievement of the Civic Amenities Act 1967 was the creation of the simple concept of conservation areas, which is readily understood by the general public. Like the concept of green belts, people understand what it is, not always perfectly nor entirely comprehensively, but they get the notion. It's local and it matters.
It becomes more difficult when we try to articulate exactly what matters and why, which is where the experts come in: to articulate the special character, and to develop policies to preserve and enhance it. The cry from the beginning was that there were insufficient resources in local authorities to fulfil these duties properly. As more and more conservation areas were declared, methodologies were developed to help define the special character.
Taking stock 25 years after the Civic Amenities Act, speakers at a conference organised by Malcolm Airs in 1993 highlighted the issues facing conservation areas: the perceived conflict between development and conservation; getting robust policies for preservation and enhancement in development plans; avoiding elitism; involving the public; defining character; and the lack of local authority resources. Does this sound familiar? The biggest shift might be the move away from the perception of professionals being the experts who should undertake this work, to upskilling the community to take on more responsibility.
Timothy Cantell places the Civic Amenities Act in its broader historic context, looking at antecedents in the American South and in Europe. It started in New Orleans but for some reason it took another 40 years to bring similar protection to other parts of USA. Significantly it was the local community who took the initiative in New Orleans in the 1920s.
Sir Donald Insall, looking back at the very beginnings of public intervention in historic areas in England, gives us a new understanding of where we have come from, drawing on his experience in Chester. Things we take for granted now, such as the surveying techniques for historic areas, the impact of traffic, the concept of enhancement and, yes, the creation of conservation officers, were pioneered in the late 1960s. Again local knowledge and opinion was a key factor in formulating proposals. Chester provides a highly-regarded model for managing historic areas, although few local authorities nowadays could muster the resources required for this level of involvement. In fact, few could ever find the resources to emulate this model.
The ever-diminishing resources available for conservation is a battle cry of Civic Voice. In his article Ian Harvey highlights some shocking statistics on the decrease in conservation staff in local authorities. He points to the enormous potential of local communities to contribute to managing conservation areas if only there were sufficient resources to provide the professional input they require.
As the lead body on heritage Historic England, formerly English Heritage, has already done much valuable work to help local people to play a meaningful part in managing their historic environment. Drawing on years of experience of working with local authorities and community groups, Nigel Barker-Mills discusses two of the many successful projects he has led. Crucial to their success was a proper understanding of the issues facing non-professionals: council members and local communities alike.
Picking up on these initiatives, Rob Lloyd-Sweet and Pete Boland explain the detail of how some of these can work to build capacity in communities. The Oxford Character Assessment Toolkit developed by Oxford City Council, following Nigel Barker-Mills' initiative, has been hugely successful. It is readily accessible to nonprofessionals, and has been used for training workshops by Historic England and also by local community groups. It addresses one of the common problems identified relating to the proper analysis of the character of conservation areas, namely that description is not the same as analysis.
An equally successful project in the west midlands developed and run by Pete Boland, demonstrates the value of keeping it simple. Characterisation can be dauntingly complex for the lay person. More and more local groups are preparing neighbourhood plans and an understanding of the significance of the historic environment is a key starting point. Historic England and local authorities working together have produced a simple and easily accessible tool for communities to use to characterise their local area.
Parks and gardens are an integral part of our historic environment but they rarely get the attention they deserve. David Lambert and Helen Monger look at the impact that conservation area designation has had on parks and gardens. Legislation, national and local policies have lagged behind those for buildings. Whatever the reason, the authors point to ways in which some ground can be made up here. Much of what has been achieved has been the result of volunteers and perhaps it is time to assign greater resources to this much-valued aspect of our historic environment. We will be returning to this theme in a forthcoming issue of Context.
Ian Harvey communicates the extraordinary energy the Civic Voice movement is putting in to this 50th anniversary year. We achieve far more together: understanding issues facing different sectors and accommodating others.
Looking back over 50 years there is much to celebrate. However, we owe it to all those who have contributed to the success of conservation areas to look forward to the next 50 years. There is a tension here.
On the one hand we have the model of a conservation area appraisal and management plan such as that developed in Chester by experts, articulating character, understanding its significance and developing policies which will preserve and enhance this. On the other hand, there have never been adequate resources for local authorities to deliver universally to this level and there never will be. Alternatives have been developed to give us a range of tools more suited to today's resources and to the focus on local action. We will lose some of the subtleties of our cherished local scene if too superficial an understanding is accepted as a basis for decision-making.

Asia is predicted to become the largest global consumer of goods and services by 2020. China, in particular, is at the forefront of the 'Asian Century', claiming title to the world's fastest growing major economy. Meanwhile, the Australian furniture industry contributes 25 billion dollars every year to the Australian economy. This not only provides close to 100,000 jobs, but also helps propel a developing design industry. This project looks at developing the Australian furniture industry by designing and manufacturing products that cater for the growing Chinese middle-class. By utilising the unique qualities of Australian timbers and pairing Western modernist aesthetics with Chinese semiotics, this creates the potential to design products for existing niche markets within the Chinese consumer market.
Three key themes are examined forming the basis of the project: the Chinese market, Australian timbers, and Urban Nomadism – a term coined by international trend forecaster Lidewij Edelkoort. An understanding of the Chinese market influenced the aesthetics, price range and functionality of the final products. Understanding the needs of Chinese consumers is essential. Australian timbers are a unique and under utilised resource that is abundant in Australia. They play an important role as a material choice in discerning Australian products from other products in the market. Urban Nomadism describes the nomadic movements of today's youth, particularly of those that live in urban environments. This takes into account the practicalities and functional aspects required in the final products.

Discussion Do you agree with the proposed changes to the Mount Lofty Botanic Garden as part of the current review of the existing Masterplan?
Survey Review of the Mount Lofty Botanic Garden Masterplan
Event Garden Open Days
The proposed concepts are designed to enhance the access and experience for visitors, whilst maintaining, protecting and enabling the activation of the garden, its collections of plants and its biodiversity for current and future generations.
New visitor centre
A new visitor centre is proposed near the current viewing platform which overlooks the arboretum (near the lower car park, off Lampert Road). It would provide a unique area for visitors to find out more about the garden and to plan their visit. A proposed café with seating, a roof-top viewing area, toilets and a merchandise shop would make this a vibrant all-weather hub for visitors.
Additional parking
On particularly busy days, finding a car park can be a problem for visitors to Mount Lofty Botanic Garden. Now is the time to plan for additional car parking, which could include a combination of re-purposing of current staff car parking and using already owned board land on the estate, which is currently vacant and under-utilised.
Improved way-finding signage
Clearer and improved signage to and throughout the botanic garden will keep visitors informed about their location and provide orientation. The garden has some very steep paths and gullies so new maps and sign infrastructure would illustrate the topography of the garden estate, trails and gullies and assist visitors to choose a suitable route for their visit. In addition, new public toilets and undercover shelter areas are also proposed.
A new horticulture and conservation hub
A new relocated eco-friendly solar powered single storey depot is proposed to replace the current staff administration building and nursery building. This nursery is where plants are grown for all three botanic gardens (Adelaide, Mount Lofty and Wittunga) and for other horticultural and conservation operations and state projects. This proposed exciting new space could also be used as a learning centre for public workshops, school groups and horticultural trainees, and would be designed to provide a place of refuge in local emergencies such as bushfires.
Upgraded walking trails
Walking and hiking trails are an important attraction for many visitors to this botanic garden. The proposed concepts include trail upgrades to enable the public to safely and more easily access the collections and attractions, while also improving internal roads for staff access to tend to the plant collections. The trails on-site are below standard and some linkages are currently closed while awaiting repair post storm damage. Links through the native forest and to sections of the Heysen Trial are also awaiting repair.
In addition to these proposals, enhanced interpretation will be installed across the garden to explain the nature, origin, and purpose of plants in the collection. Visitors will be able to learn more about the diversity of the collection and its conservation status.
If included in the finalised revised Masterplan document, these proposed concepts will enable the botanic garden to meet the needs of visitors coming solely to the garden, as well as those visiting other attractions throughout the Mount Lofty Precinct. The garden is a vital link in the nature-based tourist route through the Adelaide Hills, including forming part of the Heysen Trail, and offering unique experiences for both regular and new visitors alike.
The below map shows potential locations for the visitor centre, horticulture and conservation hub, and new visitor car-parking.

Internet freedom at risk in Pakistan
By Philip Lee on January 16, 2014
Internet surveillance is a major concern in Pakistan.
The Constitution of Pakistan provides for freedom of expression. However, its Article 19 (ironically numbered the same as the right to freedom of opinion and expression in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights) is being used to permit the state to impose "reasonable restrictions".
Pakistan's Article 19 states: "Every citizen shall have the freedom of speech and expression, and there shall be freedom of press, subject to any reasonable restrictions imposed by the law in the interest of the glory of Islam or the integrity, security or defence of Pakistan or any part thereof, friendly relations with the foreign states, public order, decency or morality, or in relation to contempt of court or incitement to an offence."
It is a country in which the Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (PEMRA) was established by the military regime of General Musharraf, to be used by successive governments to curb the independence of media houses.
It is a country in which any idea that conflicts with the Islamic way of life is considered blasphemy. A Blasphemy Law has proved the best tool in the hands of state and fundamentalists to suppress freedom of thought in society.
On 10 January 2014 the first comprehensive report mapping Pakistan's online past, present and possible future was published: "Pakistan's Internet Landscape". In it, Jahanzaib Haque, web editor of The Express Tribune and author of the 28-page report noted that, "A country that has always struggled with freedom of speech and access to information has, at the same time, come to cherish the freedom it has found to interact, communicate and stay informed online."
The report details Internet control mechanisms deployed by the government, and highlights existing legislation and its application in relation to the Internet. It provides a historical perspective of Internet censorship in Pakistan and the move to criminalize legitimate expression online. It also outlines the state of Internet surveillance, the means deployed, and the purpose and impact of such monitoring.
Haque says that, "The state's need to police the internet has led to numerous violations of fundamental rights, particularly access to information through large-scale blocking and filtering. However, citizens have turned to proxy servers and virtual private networks to circumvent blocks put in place, so Pakistanis still have access to a wide range of content, for now."
The report was produced for Bytes For All, Pakistan (B4A), a human rights organization with a focus on Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs). The organization regularly organizes debates on the relevance of ICTs for sustainable development and strengthening human rights movements in Pakistan.
The launch of the report was attended by leading media practitioners, journalists, human rights activists, civil society, researchers and major stakeholders in the online space.
Commenting on Internet freedom in Pakistan, ifex - the global network defending freedom of expression - is on record as saying, "If anything, the year 2013 only brought despair and hopelessness to Pakistan's growing number of internet users. From one step to another, the new democratically-elected government is using draconian censorship and surveillance means and systems, affecting the rich exuberance of the country's online community."

Influential Athletes – The Apache Pow Wow Please support our sponsor!
Throughout the course of sports history, thousands of professional athletes have inspired people of all genders and ages. Regardless of their sport and how they made a name for themselves, many countless fans and aspiring athletes admire these individuals, including many of the student-athletes at Arcadia High School. Our own student-athletes often think about their favorite athletes before an important game or whenever they need motivation, so let's see what some of them have to say about this subject!
Joshua Mar, who is a talented sophomore on CoEd Swim, states that one of his favorite swimmers is Nathan Adrian, a five time Olympic gold medalist. Adrian is someone whom Josh looks up to "because he is incredibly hard-working, works towards his goals, and continues to create newer goals once he has accomplished his old ones." And, when Adrian does not meet his goals completely, he "gets back into the pool and goes back to training to ensure that it will be met," which is something that Josh tries to remember whenever he is not reaching his target.
Professional athletes have to handle a lot of things for their jobs; they have the important job of not only performing well during games but also shaping the way that many young athletes may view their sport in the future.

'Dangerous' driver went through seven red lights in police chase around Bristol
Ibrahim Abdulahi panicked after seeing police armed with Taser, court told
Three police cars were involved
A judge told a driver he behaved like a "complete, dangerous lunatic."
Ibrahim Abdulahi initially thought police behind him, flashing blue lights, were after someone else.
When he did stop and saw they had a Taser gun he panicked, sped off, and led them on a high speed chase through Bristol.
Abdulahi, 22, a security supervisor of River Street in St Paul's, pleaded guilty to dangerous driving in the early hours of March 28.
Judge Mark Horton handed him an eight months prison sentence, suspended for two years, with 50 hours' unpaid work.
Judge sends man to jail cell for 50 minutes with pen and paper
Abdulahi was banned from driving for 15 months and told to take an extended driving test.
He also had to pay a £140 victim surcharge and £100 prosecution costs.
The judge told him: "Three police cars were involved, seven red lights and two passengers who you could quite easily have killed.
"For 19 minutes you behaved like a complete, dangerous lunatic."

Ian Fenny, prosecuting, told Bristol Crown Court Abdulahi was driving his VW Polo with two women on board when he accelerated away.
Mr Fenny said: "The pursuit lasted almost 20 minutes, through Pen Park, Southmead and Easton which are heavily built-up areas with traffic, parked cars and pedestrians.
"He reached speeds of 67mph, passed through seven red traffic lights and he struck a parked car.
"Eventually the car came to a stop in Vining Walk.
"He didn't apply the handbrake and the car ran back into another vehicle."
'This is a very pleasant young man'
Two young women in the Polo declined to make statements, the court heard.
Abdulahi was arrested and taken to a police station.
Dianne Heys, defending, said: "This is a very pleasant young man who has co-operated throughout the course of proceedings."
Miss Heys said when her client saw police had a Taser he panicked and drove off.
She said remorseful Abdulahi was from a good family and had a pro-social lifestyle which included an interest in playing football.

Malta, officially the Republic of Malta, is a small and densely populated island nation consisting of an archipelago of seven islands in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea. Malta lies directly south of Sicily, east of Tunisia and north of Libya. The country's official languages are Maltese and English. Roman Catholicism is the most common religion. The strategically located islands constituting the Maltese nation have been ruled by various powers and fought over for centuries. Malta has been a member state of the European Union since May 1, 2004. It is currently the smallest European Union country in both population and area. Malta is the only nation in the world that has collectively been awarded the George Cross for conspicuous gallantry, and its flag bears a replica of that award.

He's a Sillicon Valley pioneer and a scientist employed by Microsoft — but Jaron Lanier is calling on all of us to take back control and abandon social media for good. He says the catastrophic losses of personal dignity are not worth it.
Originally published on Oct. 5, 2018.
Jaron Lanier has never created a social media account, but that doesn't make him a technophobic luddite.
In fact, the Silicon Valley pioneer is considered a founding father of virtual reality, who worked on the growth of the Internet in the 1990s. He's currently an interdisciplinary scientist at Microsoft.
And he's urging you to delete your social media accounts, free yourself from the toxicity and disastrous affects.
Lanier breaks down his reasoning with evidence in his book Ten Arguments for Deleting Your Social Media Accounts Right Now. He spoke to The Current's Friday host Piya Chattoaphdyay.
How did someone so steeped in the world of tech end up feeling like social media is fundamentally a destructive force?
The destructive force is not exactly social media. The problem is that behind the scenes, the social media companies —especially Facebook and Google through YouTube and some of its other services — use these algorithms that are designed to get you riled up so you get more and more addicted.
I would like to think that I am smarter than these companies and their ability to lure me in. How are they getting me to be addicted?
The way this works is not through intelligence, it's through relentless statistics. So a company will measure as much information about you as possible. They're ultra information hoarders. They know every little thing they possibly can get about you: how your body moves, your facial expressions, all kinds of stuff. And then they try to put you in a bin with millions of other people who might bear some similarity to.
So it's not that they're smart, it's not that they have any insight into how to hypnotize you or get you addicted. It's just that statistics work. It's math.
You ask the users — and I'll admit I'm on social media — not to be insulted when you suggest we may be turning into well-trained dogs as a result of social media.
But what about people who feel their eyes are wide open? I'm doing it through a critical lens and I'm not being manipulated. What do you say to me, and others?
For some, and it's a minority, they can say that and be correct. There's some number of people who have a great experience on it. But even Facebook's own scientists report results that on the whole, people get sad or they lose quality of life. You know, one of the symptoms of being addicted to something is anhedonia — a loss of joy in life. Overall statistically, you're more likely to experience that and to not realize why it's happening, just like somebody who's addicted to gambling or some other behavioural addiction.
But is there evidence that people are actually addicted to their social media?
There is a world of research on this and, furthermore, the people who created these systems have publicly stated that they used addictive designs as has been studied by scientists in the field of behaviourism. Sean Parker, the first president of Facebook has stated that for the record. So I think we can really say that they're both deliberately and effectively addictive design.
I imagine, given the book that you've just written, that you have cancelled all your social media accounts?
I never got them to begin with. I always thought the manipulation machine in the background was unethical and destructive so I never was on board.
Would people call you a luddite even though you work in the tech world?
No. I suspect I've been involved in more new technologies and there'd be very few people alive who I think could match my record for that. But the thing is I strive to be an ethical luddite. I don't think you can be a technologist without also being an ethicist. It's just not right.
Technology gives us the wiggle room to become better toward each other, but it doesn't guarantee it. Ethics can only come from the heart, at the end of the day. So to be a technologist without also being an ethicist is not to be helpful. You don't achieve anything. You might just be sending humanity backwards.
I go on Twitter and ... people are so mean. You argue that social media makes what we say not only meaningless, but that it destroys our capacity for empathy. I want you to connect those two things.
The thing is that early in the history of the science in behaviourism, a famous behaviourist named [Ivan] Pavlov showed that you could get a dog to salivate through the ringing of a bell. And so what he did is he rang a bell while the dogs were eating and then they would associate food with the bell and then the bell itself became the treat. So you can use symbols instead of actual candy as a treat or electric shock as as a punishment.
And so in our social media technologies that are manipulative, we use social pain — which might be rejection, humiliation or just being ignored — as the equivalent of the electric shock from classic behaviourism. Then we use that occasional time when you're liked or something you do goes viral, those are like the equivalents of the treats that's like Pavlov's bell for the dogs. And so there's a whole science about how you time these things in order to get people more engaged.
And there's an unfortunate little fact of human psychology which is while in the real world negative emotions like anger and paranoia and fear and resentment and jealousy, those things are roughly equal by the positive ones like admiration and affection, trust. In the cyber world because we're measuring so fast the algorithms tend to pick up on the emotions that rise the quickest and so the negative emotions — the fight or flight emotions — rise really quickly. So the algorithms elicit them more because they're just economical, they're effective.

For patients who suffer from allergies, it often feels like the treatment options are severely limited. The most commonly used pharmacological therapies—including antihistamines, corticosteroids, mast cell stabilizers, and decongestants—are not effective for all patients, and they often lead to side effects that disrupt everyday life. After years of frustration with oral antihistamines, nasal sprays, eye drops, inhaled corticosteroids, and other over-the-counter and prescription drugs, many patients are ready to explore other treatment options.
Over the last few decades, scientific research into the physiological underpinnings of allergies has suggested that inflammatory processes and oxidative stress may both mediate the most common symptoms. This has led to increased motivation within the research community to study anti-inflammatory and antioxidant supplements as potential allergy treatment options. In particular, curcumin has emerged as a non-pharmacological alternative with a strong base of biochemical and early clinical evidence, but there are also a few other options, including phytochemicals like quercetin, that have been implicated as potential all-natural therapeutics.
Antioxidants and anti-inflammatory supplements have come to the attention of the research community in light of biochemical and clinical evidence suggesting a distinct relationship between allergies, inflammation, and oxidative stress. It is well-known that exposure to allergens leads to systemic inflammation by increasing the circulation of immune cells and by triggering the release of certain proteins and other inflammatory factors. However, scientists have also observed "minimal persistent inflammation" in patients with allergic rhinitis—that is, these patients display chronic, slightly above-average levels of inflammatory markers, even when allergy triggers are not present. Not only can these chronically elevated levels of inflammation increase a patient's susceptibility to the onset of severe allergy symptoms, it can also lead to an increase in oxidative damage—another potential mediator of allergy response.
Both internal inflammation and exposure to external allergy triggers can damage antioxidant enzymes and other key cell factors that play important roles in the cell signaling processes that mediate the manifestation of symptoms. As a result, oxidative stress levels are considerably higher in patients with allergic rhinitis. According to one recent study in children with chronic allergies, blood samples indicated that their total oxidant levels were significantly higher than those of their healthy peers. Based on this combination of chemical and clinical research, researchers are increasingly interested in the ways that anti-inflammatory and antioxidant supplements may prove to be effective allergy treatment options for patients.
As an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant supplement, curcumin has emerged as one of the most prominent potential allergy treatment options. This compound has long been known for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, and there are preliminary laboratory and clinical studies to suggest that it may help patients who suffer from allergies. For instance, in 2016, a group of researchers in Turkey conducted a rigorous study on the antioxidant effects of curcumin in rat models of allergic rhinitis. After 28 days of oral curcumin therapy, the researchers measured multiple tissue and serum markers of antioxidant activity (including the levels of seven different enzymes with known antioxidant activity) and observed significantly higher levels in the rats that had been treated with the supplement than the rats in their control population. Moreover, the researchers noted that serum markers of oxidation were reduced in the curcumin-treated rats, suggesting that curcumin not only upregulates antioxidant enzyme activity, but may also directly decrease oxidative stress in patients with allergic rhinitis.
Alongside these findings on the benefits of curcumin as an antioxidant, there is also evidence to suggest that curcumin can have a protective effect on acute airway inflammation in patients with respiratory allergy symptoms. In a 2014 study in the journal Inflammation, a group of researchers from China not only demonstrated that treatment with curcumin could reduce inflammation in mouse models, they were also able to elucidate the specific molecular mechanism through which the protective benefit is mediated. Through a series of genetic experiments, the researchers were able to show that the benefits of curcumin in mouse models required the functioning of the Notch1-GATA signaling pathway. When researchers can highlight a specific signaling pathway that directly explains the association between an intervention like curcumin supplementation and anti-inflammatory processes by implicating the activity of a particular cell signaling pathway, it strengthens the evidence that the supplement is truly having an effect—and indicates that further studies are warranted in patients.
So far, the clinical evidence for the benefits of curcumin for allergy patients is limited, but a pilot study from 2016 provided the first indication that curcumin may help modulate the immune response and ameliorate nasal and respiratory symptoms in patients. In a randomized, double-blind study of 241 patients who had previously been diagnosed with allergic rhinitis, a group of researchers in China found that treatment with curcumin led to lower serum levels of multiple inflammatory factors, as well as a decrease in the circulation of certain types of immune cells. In addition, the patients who took the curcumin supplements reported direct therapeutic effects, including reductions in nasal symptoms and improvements in nasal airflow resistance. For researchers, this study paves the way for more comprehensive clinical studies in the future. For patients and practitioners, it suggests that it may be worth trying a curcumin supplement to alleviate allergy symptoms.
So far, curcumin is the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant supplement with the strongest laboratory and clinical evidentiary support when it comes to allergy treatment options, but there is also growing evidence that phytochemical supplements may also have positive effects for some patients. These plant-derived compounds may inhibit the nuclear transcription factor NF-kappa-B, which is known to mediate the anti-inflammatory response, as well as other transcription factors with similar activity. Some of the phytochemicals with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory processes that have been highlighted as potential research targets include quercetin, resveratrol, and magnolol.
Indeed, there have been several recent studies highlight quercetin as a possible alternative to antihistamines, including two animal studies in which quercetin supplementation in rat models of rhinitis led to both symptomatic and molecular improvements in anti-inflammatory and antioxidant processes. There is even growing evidence to suggest that there may be other ways in which quercetin supplementation may help reduce the allergy-related immune response—that is, beyond the transcription factor inhibition described above. Specifically, quercetin may also suppress the creation of certain types of immune cells (which can help with chronically elevated systemic inflammation), prevent the release of inflammatory proteins like cytokines, and limit the formation of certain types of antibodies.
Clinical evidence on the benefits of phytochemicals for patients with allergies is still lacking. However, because they have the same antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties as curcumin, they are increasingly under consideration as potential allergy treatment options. For patients and practitioners who are ready to look beyond the prescription and over-the-counter drugs, supplements like curcumin and quercetin present promising possibilities.

Wreck-It Ralph 2's Fil-Am animator Josie Trinidad would love to work on a Filipina Disney princess warrior in the future.
Is there a chance for us to see a Filipina Disney princess warrior on the big screen?
For Josie Trinidad, the Filipino-American co-head of story at Walt Disney Animation Studios, there's a big possibility that it could happen.
She was in the Philippines recently for a press conference promoting the sequel to 2012's Wreck it Ralph–a 3D computer-animated movie about a video game character who wants to be a hero of the arcade.
PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) had the chance to ask her: if she could create her own Filipino-based Disney animated character, what would it be?
Josie answered, "Disney princess warrior. I definitely think there are a lot of stories that can come from and be inspired from the Philippines.
As co-head of story, Josie oversaw the story team responsible for transforming the written screenplay into visual form for both Wreck-It Ralph (2012) and Ralph Breaks The Internet (2018).
Phil Johnston, writer of the original movie, returns to this sequel as a writer and co-director along with Rich Moore.
In Ralph Breaks The Internet, which is currently being shown in Philippine cinemas, the lead character Ralph goes beyond the world of video games into the vast space of the world wide web.
Josie shared with the members of the Philippine media her Pinoy roots and her experience penetrating the highly competitive world of animation.
Josie first joined Disney Animation Studios as a story apprentice in 2004. She was later hired by Disney as a story artist after she completed training. Prior to this, she was a English Literature major in the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). She also studied character animation at CalArts.
She served as co-head of story in 2016's Oscar-winning feature Zootopia. Her other Disney credits include the 2010 adventure Tangled and the 2009 feature film The Princess and the Frog.
When asked how it is like to be a Filipina working in the once male-dominated industry of animation, Josie recalled how times have changed since she first began.
"When I started in 2004, fourteen years ago, I was the only female in our story apprenticeship program. There are only two women in the story department. It's just surprising that the department was really small. But now, the story department, half of it are women from all over the world. There are many Asians from Taiwan, Korea, Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand.
Josie never thought that being female was a disadvantage in her profession.
Ralph Breaks The Internet similarly features Disney princesses in a more real and unglamorous way—starkly different from the iconic way that Disney has portrayed them in the past.
Vanellope von Schweetz is the little girl who is Ralph's constant companion in Wreck-It Ralph and Ralph Breaks The Internet.
"I was aided by luck, but also a lot of hard work which I think a lot of Filipinos have. Filipinos are talented. They are amazing artists. I would just say, be true to yourself and don't give up. We offer a unique and interesting perspective as artists. As Filipinos, we have a unique story to tell, given our history.

Pedal Away from Crowds to Enjoy Tahoe Safely
by Carrie Kirby August 1, 2020
Boathouse on the Pier Restaurant, Tahoe.
With the CDC recommending outdoor activities over indoor ones in terms of COVID-19 risk, Tahoe has never been a more attractive destination. Sure, there may be other places to pursue outdoor activities, but where else can you do it all with the majestic backdrop of that scintillating lake ringed with peaks?
Tahoe is welcoming tourists back — with caution. Just like at home, you gotta wear a mask in public. It's still recommended that you only hang out with members of your own household. Keep in mind that you are visiting a region with far fewer hospitals than the Bay Area; carelessness could wreak disaster on these beloved lakeside communities. Already this summer, officials in the South Lake Tahoe area linked a July spike in COVID cases to visitors failing to take precautions.
Pedaling a bike is a great way to social distance in the mountain air. There are at least a dozen places to rent on both the north and south shores; Bike Tahoe's list of shops can get you started.
Rusty? If you haven't ridden a bike in years, you might find one of the new e-bikes a boon. You can pedal as if you're riding a regular bike, but the motor gives you an assist when you need it to get up the steep parts.
Tahoe Ebikes delivers rental electronic mountain bikes everywhere in North Tahoe, and will come to South Lake Tahoe for a small group.
"I do take extra safety measures, wearing a mask, social distancing, and cleaning/disinfecting the e-bikes," said owner Harry Ward. "I have been insanely busy this year."
Not all mountain bike trails allow e-bikes, but plenty do, such as the 50 miles of trails at Lake Tahoe Nevada State Park. Ward said one of his renters' favorite rides is the 14-mile Marlette Flume trail, where you can drink in lake vistas unbound by a car windshield.
"It cuts high above the east side of the lake, my personal favorite area. My only issue was trying to keep my eyes on the trail. Seriously the view is that good," wrote Conor Barry on the MTB Project website.
If you'd prefer one of Tahoe's many paved bike paths to the mountain trails, check out Bike Tahoe's wealth of trail guides and maps, which rank rides by challenge level. You can rent a cruiser and hop from strand to strand on the South Tahoe Beach Cruise ride.
Serious cyclists can do their own bike around the lake since the 29th annual America's Most Beautiful Bike Ride, has been postponed to 2021, and pedal 72 miles all the way around the lake.
One you've burned all those calories, you don't have to go inside to recuperate. Relax with a brew on a terrace with a lake view. In Tahoe City, kick back at Za's Lakefront and tuck into Fat Zakel's Fish Sandwich. In South Lake Tahoe, sip a cocktail and watch the sunset turn the water tangerine from Boathouse on the Pier, located at the Beach Retreat and Lodge resort. Both restaurants were open for dining in at press time, but because pandemic conditions are unpredictable, it's a good idea to call first to get the current status. The Tahoe area stretches over two states and multiple counties, and with the COVID crisis constantly evolving, it's hard to predict what will be open at any given time.

I stayed at Villa du Lac for an extended period while on a work assignment in Switzerland. The staff at the hotel were very friendly and helped me with any questions I had. The food was good and the restaurant staff went out of their way to make me feel welcome. The location of the hotel is excellent with the Lake and walking path located right across the street. The town of Divonne is very pleasant and offers a number of shopping and eating options. I will definitely stay here again!
Very enjoyable trip and we will return.
The hotel was clean and friendly and in an ideal location for our ski holiday. The staff were all helpful and courteous. This hotel offers good value for money.
Nice hotel, good food and good service from the staff!

Facebook Twitter Pinterest LinkedIn WhatsApp Reddit Tumblr Email
Babangida Ahmad
A Bayero University Kano (BUK) final year student in the Department of Library and Information Science has slumped and died in his hostel.
The student, Babangida Ahmad, an indigene of Bauchi State, reportedly collapsed in his hostel in the early hours of Friday, January 28, while getting ready for morning prayers in the mosque.
One of his colleagues disclosed that the late Babangida left the room at about 4:30 am where he suddenly slumped and was quickly rushed to the university clinic for medical attention. He was, however, said to have been brought in dead to the clinic.
The BUK Secretary, Information and Publication, Bala Abdullahi, in a statement on Friday confirmed the incident.
"The University management has contacted his parents about the incident and would be taken to his hometown for burial according to Islamic rites.
"Prior to his death, the deceased has been visiting Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital (AKTH) to see doctors on certain undisclosed ailment,
"According to hospital records, he had visited AKTH about seven times within the last one year, with his last visit on the 10th of January, 2022. His next appointment at the AKTH was on 7th February, 2022,"
"Meanwhile, the University management had taken the body to his hometown, Misau, Bauchi State for burial, ," the statement read.

Suzanne Brown murder: Man who killed partner made subject of an indefinite hospital order.
A MAN who killed his partner has been made subject of an indefinite hospital order.
Suzanne Brown was brought up in Harlow, attended Stewards Academy and was known to many people in the town.
However, a trial was held to determine whether or not he had killed Ms Brown. After hearing the evidence, a jury ruled on Wednesday, January 16, that they were sure that he had killed her.
Neate, who has been receiving treatment in a psychiatric hospital since her death, was sentenced today Friday, January 18, to the hospital order at Chelmsford Crown Court.
In a Victim Impact Statement read to the court, Suzanne's sister Rebecca Foskett said: "Sue was my rock and would support me through any troubles that I had in my life, as a sister would, she was always there with a smile and never had a bad word to say about anyone.
In a statement following today's sentencing, Suzanne's family said: "The loss of Sue will leave a huge hole in our lives.
