Home Entertainment Line-up for festive lights switch-on announced
Line-up for festive lights switch-on announced
YoungstaCPT had the crowd going wild.
The City of Cape Town says the theme for this year's festive lights switch-on is #BeInspiring.
The city's biggest free open-air event will take place at the Grand Parade and surrounding streets on Sunday December 2, from 4pm.
Every year, thousands of locals and visitors flock to the venue to be entertained by the various musicians.
This year's line-up includes DJ Loyd, Sarah Theron, Yanga, Kunjalo, The Unknown Dance Crew, Robin Pieters featuring Elwira Standili, Emo Adams, YoungstaCPT, Shekhinah and Kwesta.
Also joining the line-up will be the winner of the 2018 Festive Lights Switch-on Music Challenge. You can enter on indi.com.
Mayor Dan Plato called on the public to #BeInspiring in honour of the late former president Nelson Mandela, who would have turned 100 years old this year.
"This year marks what would have been Madiba's 100th birthday and, to honour his centenary, South Africans are encouraged to reflect on his life and legacy. This is the time to rekindle our common desire to do good, and to help the less fortunate in practical ways – to be motivated by the legacy Madiba left to future generations," said Mr Plato.
He said the line-up will cater for everyone.
"I am sure the line-up for the event will have young and old well entertained for the evening," he said.

Spectroscopic Measurements of the Ion Velocity Distribution at the Base of the Fast Solar Wind
Jeffrey, Natasha, Hahn, Michael, Savin, Daniel W. and Fletcher, Lyndsay (2018) Spectroscopic Measurements of the Ion Velocity Distribution at the Base of the Fast Solar Wind. Astrophysical Journal Letters, 855 (1). L13. ISSN 2041-8213

In situ measurements of the fast solar wind reveal non-thermal distributions of electrons, protons, and minor ions extending from 0.3 au to the heliopause. The physical mechanisms responsible for these non-thermal properties and the location where these properties originate remain open questions. Here, we present spectroscopic evidence, from extreme ultraviolet spectroscopy, that the velocity distribution functions (VDFs) of minor ions are already non-Gaussian at the base of the fast solar wind in a coronal hole, at altitudes of <1.1 R ⊙. Analysis of Fe, Si, and Mg spectral lines reveals a peaked line-shape core and broad wings that can be characterized by a kappa VDF. A kappa distribution fit gives very small kappa indices off-limb of κ ≈ 1.9–2.5, indicating either (a) ion populations far from thermal equilibrium, (b) fluid motions such as non-Gaussian turbulent fluctuations or non-uniform wave motions, or (c) some combination of both. These observations provide important empirical constraints for the source region of the fast solar wind and for the theoretical models of the different acceleration, heating, and energy deposition processes therein. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that the ion VDF in the fast solar wind has been probed so close to its source region. The findings are also a timely precursor to the upcoming 2018 launch of the Parker Solar Probe, which will provide the closest in situ measurements of the solar wind at approximately 0.04 au (8.5 solar radii).

Do Hedge Funds Love SkyWest, Inc. (SKYW)?
A whopping number of 13F filings filed with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has been processed by Insider Monkey so that individual investors can look at the overall hedge fund sentiment towards the stocks included in their watchlists. These freshly-submitted public filings disclose money managers' equity positions as of the end of the three-month period that ended September 30, so let's proceed with the discussion of the hedge fund sentiment on SkyWest, Inc. (NASDAQ:SKYW).
SkyWest, Inc. (NASDAQ:SKYW) was in 17 hedge funds' portfolios at the end of September. SKYW investors should pay attention to an increase in hedge fund sentiment in recent months. There were 11 hedge funds in our database with SKYW positions at the end of the previous quarter. The level and the change in hedge fund popularity aren't the only variables you need to analyze to decipher hedge funds' perspectives. A stock may witness a boost in popularity, but it may still be less popular than similarly priced stocks. That's why at the end of this article we will examine companies such as Badger Meter, Inc. (NYSE:BMI), Irsa Inversiones y Rprsntcins SA (ADR) (NYSE:IRS), and Ocwen Financial Corporation (NYSE:OCN) to gather more data points.
According to most shareholders, hedge funds are seen as worthless, outdated financial tools of years past. While there are more than 8000 funds in operation at present, We choose to focus on the masters of this group, approximately 700 funds. It is estimated that this group of investors control most of all hedge funds' total capital, and by keeping track of their inimitable equity investments, Insider Monkey has discovered a number of investment strategies that have historically outpaced the market. Insider Monkey's small-cap hedge fund strategy surpassed the S&P 500 index by 12 percentage points per year for a decade in their back tests.
With all of this in mind, let's review the new action surrounding SkyWest, Inc. (NASDAQ:SKYW).
Heading into Q4, a total of 17 of the hedge funds tracked by Insider Monkey were bullish on this stock, a surge of 55% from the second quarter. With the smart money's sentiment swirling, there exists an "upper tier" of noteworthy hedge fund managers who were upping their holdings considerably (or already accumulated large positions).
Of the funds tracked by Insider Monkey, David Iben's Kopernik Global Investors has the largest position in SkyWest, Inc. (NASDAQ:SKYW), worth close to $44.5 million, amounting to 9.3% of its total 13F portfolio. Coming in second is Israel Englander of Millennium Management, with a $10.5 million position; less than 0.1% of its 13F portfolio is allocated to the company. Remaining members of the smart money with similar optimism include Ken Griffin's Citadel Investment Group, Peter Rathjens, Bruce Clarke and John Campbell's Arrowstreet Capital and Jim Simons's Renaissance Technologies.

Red Alert!! Urge Senator Monning to OPPOSE Restrictive Rent Caps – AB 1482
Important: Carmel By The Sea Change in MLS Coming
Posted on February 10, 2017 by Kevin Stone
Carmel by the Sea Change, Scheduled for March 1, 2017
Since its incorporation October 31 of 1916, Carmel by the Sea has remained a unique creation in Monterey County. From its famous mayors, coveted landscapes, to its refusal to identify street addresses, these qualities have become the marketing banner of Carmel-by-the-Sea ('CBTS').
However, these features also bring unique challenges for real estate professionals and the MLS in integrating this one-of-a-kind creation which in many ways can be considered an appendage to the greater Carmel communities such as Carmel, Carmel Valley and Carmel Highlands.
REALTOR® and MLS Challenges:
The greatest challenge to real estate professionals with CBTS is consistency. Because the city may or may not show up in an intended search, CMAs, statistics, agent search and all IDX vendor services can be negatively impacted. CBTS listings can be lost to potential buyers and opportunities diminished for sellers in the highly specific CBTS search fields.
The Proposal:
At the behest of the Monterey County Association of REALTORS® Super Users and Review Group, (SURG), MLSListings is working toward the implementation of a removal of CBTS as a search field to include it within the broader classification of Carmel. This means, all history and property details would fall under the Carmel umbrella. No information would be lost, only reclassified.
Over the past few years the vast majority of listing agents chose to classify their CBTS listings as Carmel, consequently undermining the CBTS classification.
The Repercussions:
As it stands today, agents have to search in both Carmel and CBTS in order to obtain a comprehensive list of properties available for sale in CBTS. Our goal is to simplify the search process for both agents and the public.
The removal of CBTS carries the requirement for agents to list under Carmel. Forms, histories and all records would move to Carmel. Essentially, all CBTS properties current and past, will be renamed, Carmel. CBTS will no longer be searchable in the system.
The wider net would provide an inclusive and consistent search environment for brokers and agents. The marketing panache of CBTS would have to appear in remarks or in other selling collateral. Or you could search the four MLS areas currently within CBTS as these will not be going away, or search by Zip Code.
As with most technology updates on a larger scale, an adjustment period, additional education, training and mass communications to those in the area would be required.
The change would usher in some controversy; however, the SURG members feel this long term change will improve accuracy in listings and search for the area.
Carmel-By-The-Sea Removal Q&A
Question: I understand that Carmel By the Sea will no longer be a city selection option for entering properties. I have some questions.
Q: What happens to my listing which designates Carmel by the Sea as its city?
A: When the system is updated to remove Carmel by the Sea as a City, those listings will retain their current CBTS Zip Code but the city name will be changed to Carmel.
Q: What will happen to all of the history records that have Carmel by the Sea as their city?
A: In order for the change to be consistent, all history records that have used the City name "Carmel By The Sea" and/or the Zip Code for it will have their City name changed to "Carmel". They will retain the CBTS Zip Code.
Q: How will this impact property searches for listings now labeled as Carmel by the Sea?
A: After the change, you will be able to search for listings in the four designated areas of Carmel By the Sea or by using the Carmel By the Sea Zip Code (93921).
Q: What is the benefit of removing CBTS as a City?
A: The benefit is to provide greater consistency in statistics, market analysis, and every day searches, eliminating the redundancy of property searches in both cities.
Q: If my client still wants to market their listing as a CBTS listing, how can we do that?
A: Listing agents and brokers can still market the listing as a CBTS listing by including a comment in the Public and Private Remarks field.
Q: What does this mean for listings that are distributed to public sites like Zillow?
A: When an external vendor receives an update from MLSListings after the change, listings that had CBTS as the city will now have Carmel.
Please don't hesitate to contact us with any questions or comments you may have regarding this change as your feedback is certainly welcome.

Swift Gains in Fourth Quarter Push Home Prices to Peak Levels in Majority of Metro Areas


in camera gallery presents in partnership with Howard Greenberg Gallery a set of photographs of Yumiko and Kenro Izu.
In about fifteen platinum-palladium prints, Yumiko and Kenro Izu, both born in Osaka (Japan), translate the impermanence of the world into a disturbing face-to-face of flowers, nudes, fruits and birds' nests.
Even though they live together in Rhinebeck, in upstate New York, Yumiko and Kenro Izu have their homeland, Japan, in mind. This memory is at work in their oeuvre, of exacting precision, as if they wanted to usefully share the ultimate secrets of a world whose impermanence they know. Hence their attachment to these still lifes to which they give back life with photography, flowers, fruits, birds' nest and skulls of animals observed closely, almost under a microscope.
It was also one of the dreams of Kenro Izu (born in 1949 in Osaka), to be a doctor, and one remembers his solicitude, including for stones thousand years old, during his exhibition at the gallery, in 2012, with his series Sacred Places.
Today, always anxious to "find beauty in every moment, every stage of life," he exhibits his flowers, arums, sunflowers or tulips, some Cézanne fruit, or very well behaved nudes. No place for chance or improvisation, the composition is very orderly. Everything corresponds to his desire, exactly. He has such authority on his subject that nothing can move without his consent, even the pear seems to toe the line. And lets not talk about flowers or nudes that seem to stretch or snuggle on command, as subjugated by the voice of the photographer. We feel that he reassures them, we even hear their breathing, and the breath of the wind. There is a sensation of delight, literally, as if he wanted to go through time, forget everything, never come back. And then he's back, sure of him, and collected, as if he had been freed from the past.
Yumiko Izu, born in 1968 in Osaka, is close to some of Kenro's themes, flowers in particular. This proximity favors their difference, fortunately. It is not a question of interpretation, but of atmosphere, less closed, lighter, more transparent. As if summer never ended for Yumiko Izu. This does not prevent her, too, from introducing gravity, sensitive in her skulls of animals, where we perceive this face to face between her and the bones, between what is and what will remain, between infinity and continuity. Fugacity is a word that suits her well. And which look like the bird nests she finds near their home in the Hudson Highlands, built "in unimaginable places." She marvels at these unexpected and fickle neighbors and at their witty homes. She stages them with pleasure, perhaps with some gratitude, in anticipation of the birds songs which enchant her, each new year, when appear the purple crocuses.
For their photographs, Yumiko and Kenro Izu use a large-format camera. They make by contact, their own platinum-palladium prints.
Privileged by leading photographers, such as Mapplethorpe, Edward Weston, Irving Penn and before them Curtis, Stieglitz and Steichen, this process is now particularly popular with museum curators and collectors for its wide range of tonalities. the uniqueness it offers to each image, its exceptional stability, and its longevity.
The photographs of Yumiko and Kenro Izu are present in many collections.

Killing Eve filming new series in London and Paris
A second series of acclaimed TV drama Killing Eve starts filming this week in London, with scenes also scheduled to be shot in Paris.
Produced by UK production company Sid Gentle Films for BBC America, the first series featured Sandra Oh as a bored MI5 officer who finds herself given the task of tracking Jodie Comer's suave assassin Villanelle (pictured).
The show is yet to be broadcast in the UK but has been a hit in the US, with Oh becoming the first actress of Asian descent to be nominated for an Emmy as a Lead Actress in a Drama Series.
British showrunner Phoebe Waller-Bridge, previously best known for her UK comedy-drama series Fleabag and for a co-starring role in Solo: A Star Wars Story, has also scored an Emmy nomination as a writer for her work on a specific episode of Killing Eve's first-season run.
"Killing Eve is a startlingly original thriller," said Sue Deeks, head of programme acquisition for the BBC, when the show was first announced for the corporation.
"In turn both laugh-out-loud funny and edge-of-your-seat gripping, Phoebe Waller-Bridge has filled her new series with an array of wonderful characters brought to life by a dream cast."
Location filming in London has a lucrative "ripple effect" through the capital worth nearly three times the original expenditure, according to a recent report for Film London.
See KFTV's production guide for more on filming in the UK.

Throughout my journey I never would have thought I'd study in MCKL, this is because when I graduated from Wesley Methodist School I always wanted to get away from the strict rules and very tight discipline. So I did move out and studied in Curtin University, Sarawak. I was there doing my foundation in engineering but halfway into my course I got myself into a major setback that led me to come back to Peninsular Malaysia. I broke my leg playing for the University's football team and I was sent back to Kuala Lumpur on short notice. In this situation it gave me a lot of time to think and reflect on myself to see if I was pursuing the right course because deep down I knew I wanted to further my studies in business major. I was given a second chance to rethink my choices and I spoke to some of my ex teachers, guidance counsellors, uncles and aunt. They advise me to go into ACCA and at that time most of my friends were already in MCKL doing their CAT program.
I was still having second thoughts on MCKL but looking at the tuition fees MCKL was the best option. I wasn't too happy at first but I had friends inside so I thought it wasn't going to be bad. The friends I made in MCKL are still few of the best of friends that I have till today and I have no regrets joining.
Even the lecturers are so helpful, Mr Calvin the best lecturer, who always knew how to make sure his students understand everything through the easiest way possible and it was definitely sad to see him leave but there were so many other teachers that helped me along the way. Ms Guna with her motherly nature always knew how to advise and make sure we studied all the time. Ms Keow and Ms Rachel helped me a lot when I didn't understand something as they would stay back to help me with things that I was not sure of being a science stream student. It was difficult to adapt to the accounting subject but with MCKL amazing teachers definitely helped me along the way and hands down I don't regret joining MCKL.
It was a time of fun, it was a time of growth; a time of new discoveries, a time of new friendships. Studying in MCKL has brought me many new experiences with it's many events and active club activities. I entered MCKL with a heavy heart of nervousness for the new season in my life, I left MCKL with a heavier heart as I had to leave a place I had become attached to after a little over a year.
The CAT programme in MCKL is of top quality with lecturers who are faithful with their task to sow into our lives, not only knowledge but good character, which will benefit us in the future. They would willingly come earlier for lectures and leave a little later so that we may ask if we had any uncertainties of the lesson that was taught. They also place a high regard for punctuality, the spirit of excellence in making sure we are well prepared for tests, and encouraging us to build good and strong friendships while in MCKL.
The CAT programme itself is taught in various methods, with lecturers using visuals, having surprise tests, and allowing us to open up pop-up businesses in order that we may be able to apply the knowledge we had on accounting in business and the many controls needed when starting a business. The variation of teaching methods allowed us to understand the syllabus better and kept us on our toes to always be prepared for our lectures. All in all, I would not trade my experience in MCKL in the season that I was there for an experience elsewhere. I believe MCKL has done an excellent job in upholding its motto, Excellence for Life, and I wish the future MCKL CAT students all the best as they venture into a new adventure in MCKL.
I had my doubts when I first came to MCKL.I wasn't sure if this was the college for me. Is this the best place to study CAT? Will I make good friends? Will it be as memorable as how I've always pictured it to be? Will I have fun or would I just be that student that stares at the clock waiting for classes to end? It happened all so fast. A week after receiving my SPM results, I was at MCKL attending my orientation.
Fortunately, enrolling in MCKL has been the best decision I've made till date. My journey in MCKL has been nothing but a memorable one. Something that I'll forever cherish. My lecturers not only passed on their knowledge and expertise in the field of accounting to help us in our studies but they were our personal advisors and counsellors too. Kind, understanding and approachable are just a few out of many other wonderful things to describe them.
MCKL has also a very conducive environment to study and play at the same time! Since MCKL is strategically placed close to KL sentral, it's easy to travel to college and discover many hot spots around KL conveniently. This was one of the reasons why I made such amazing friends in CAT. Most of us took the public transport so we would always walk together to the station and sometimes even take them to eat at restaurants located nearby . This brought us all so close and in a few months we were inseparable! We were a family that studied, ate and travelled together!
Apart from studies and play, I took on the responsibility of being apart of the student council too! That was one great experience indeed! There were many clubs and activities to be involved in. The various opportunities offered in MCKL not only helped me grow intellectually but it also helped me build my personality.
I received the college life of my dreams in MCKL and I'll forever be grateful to God for that. I proudly call myself an MCKL student and hopefully I'll be able to live up to the MCKL motto 'Excellence for Life" in my future undertakings.
When I first joined MCKL, It was a mixed emotion where I felt excited and anxious at the same time.
My experience studying in MCKL is a new experience for me as this is the first time i am away from my home in Penang.Other than academic knowledge, college life taught me to be independent and also know more about myself. The college also organized events that helped me to pick up some extra skills and knowledge to equip us for the outside world. The lecturers are very friendly and will guide me through when I face with problem no matter it relates to life or studies. I truly appreciate every single moment I spent in MCKL whether it is happiness or sadness.Thank You MCKL!
I have always felt that I was so lucky to be a student at Methodist College Kuala Lumpur (MCKL), and not at any other private or public colleges. The thing I admire the most about MCKL is the support and love I received from everyone at the college especially my beloved lecturers and friends.I wouldn't have been able to achieve what I have achieved without that caring and loving environment. I am so happy to graduate from the CAT programme and still continue ACCA for my further studies in MCKL.
My education experience here in MCKL is remarkable and filled with unique perspectives, opportunities and events. It helped me to develop a positive attitude towards my studies and discover more about myself. Student life here is amazing. Not only my studies, I've also picked up some soft skills that is essential in grooming me for this evolving industry. The lecturers are very caring and supportive. They make sure every class is fun, informative and interactive. We are enthused by the classes.
My journey in MCKL was a very enjoyable one! Walking into class on Day 1, the other students were very friendly and it was extremely easy to make new friends in and outside CAT, the course I was pursuing. Soon enough, we had to go to Orientation Camp, which I can say, assuredly, that this was one of the most fun experiences I have ever had! The activities which caused us to make new friends, the activities that strengthened our bond, and the activities in which memories were created through the so-called 'havoc' probably made everyone leave the camp as one massive group of friends forced to be divided into our respective buses!
A more important factor resulting in an enjoyable time in MCKL was the quality of the lecturers. Subject matter was always explained clearly and if someone did not understand, they were willing to go the extra mile if it meant a student could succeed. Also, an amazing characteristic almost all of the lecturers had, was the ability to be fully a lecturer, and fully a friend. Meaning there was room for class to be serious and fun at the same time, as the lecturers knew how to grab our attention with many inside jokes which were only usable within the classroom. As a result, the lecturers also knew how to 'read' us. They would know how each person needs to be taught and what would make us all better.
Facilities were sufficient for me, as the library was a reliable source for getting required information. Through the foosball table, there was a way to release any stress after classes and to also build relationships. I personally think a huge amount of friendships in MCKL are formed at the foosball table. Cafeteria food was worth its price, and due to MCKL's location, there was never a situation where students lacked choices for food.
In conclusion, I would say MCKL is a very good college for someone who wants to get their studies done without a million distractions, but enough to have an enjoyable college life.
The class experience in MCKL is probably what I admire the most, the lecturers in MCKL are unarguably its main asset. The lecturers here carry on their fiduciary responsibility by enlightening the students about not only the importance of learning technical skills that would help us to build a sustainable career, but also often advise the students about the need to balance their academic and social life which could help us to lead a better life. They also urge the students to not be overly attracted towards material wealth but should also have a broader understanding about the importance of a positive environment which could help us to gain and also benefit the individuals around us.
The college which is literally located in the heart of our capital, in a strategic yet congested location has never been a constraint for the college and its students to spend their leisure with variable indoor and outdoor activities. The facilities provided is adequate to support the students to live an adventurous yet discipline college life.
The past one year in MCKL, has been nothing short of a memorable and exciting college experience for me.
So, it was a 15 month journey which all went by too fast. From the very beginning where it came to making new friends, to those who are just "Hi" and "Bye" friends whom you pretty much forgot their names, right up to those whom you graduate with as close friends, it all was something that I'd treasure for a long time to come.
What amazes me at a great level, was definitely the friendliness and willingness of every lecturer, and giving their all to help us be the best we can be. No matter what the scale of assistance was given, the willingness to push us to strive for excellence despite our capabilities is something not to be forgotten.
Even getting the opportunity to be a part of the CAT Council was something to never forget. Through the tough times, definitely there was lots of friction, but every time we made it through (not to say we never made it through :P), we only came out stronger. Hard times are always the best learning times!
Nothing much left to say, other it was an amazing time spent in MCKL! Cheers to the future students of MCKL!!
I did not plan to study in MCKL at first as the programmes offered were not what I wanted to study. However, after I received a scholarship from Stedfast Association, my parents and my Boys' Brigade (BB) officers suggested MCKL because it provided a better environment, and I eventually signed up for the Certified Accounting Technician (CAT) course.
I was really grateful for the Stedfast Scholarship because, my parents do not have the ability to finance me to complete the whole degree program. Just like other scholarships, I was required to achieve a certain mark in order to maintain my scholarship and this requirement pushed me to study harder.
About a month after starting my course in MCKL, I was elected as one of the student council members representing CAT. As a student council member, I was required to give a certain commitment such as staying back on for meetings and preparation of events. People may see it as a tough commitment that might affect their studies, but to me, it was the best experience I had in MCKL. As Assistant Treasurer, I was in charge of one of major events such as Orientation Ball. It was another great experience because I gained a lot of practical experience and was able to apply what I had learnt in my studies, such as preparing the budget, controlling expenses, and preparing a post-event report.
I am currently taking the ACCA course in MCKL and planning to start my career at one of the big four audit companies after I graduate. I hope that one day I would be able to be a Chief Financial Officer, and so I have to be more diligent, humble and willing to learn from others.
Olivia received an offer from MCKL to study the Certified Accounting Technician (CAT) programme on a full tuition scholarship with Financial Aid covering miscellaneous fees, and the Elena Cooke Education Fund (under the BBGS Alumni), had pledged to cover her book fees, travel expenses as well as a bit of a meal allowance. Olivia only had to pay for the exam fees.
By the end of the Certified Accounting Technician programme, Olivia became a proud recipient of the Amcorp Study Grant, which covers all expenses for her ACCA Skills and Professional papers as well as cover her travel and meal expenses. Olivia thanks God for opening the doors to her to study accounting, and is glad to have come to MCKL. As far as first impressions go, Olivia liked MCKL, which was also a deciding factor in her continuing her ACCA at MCKL.

Paul Signac was an avid sailor and owned over thirty boats during his lifetime. In 1929 a commission from the French businessman Gaston Lévy provided Signac with the means to undertake a series of watercolours devoted to the ports of France. While Signac estimated the journey would only take a few months, the project took over two years and resulted in countless studies of the dazzling effects of colour and light upon water.
This idyllic scene of the port of Paimpol was made on the coast of Brittany in the late summer of 1929. In this large watercolour, Signac fills his composition with the recurring motifs of boats, cloud-filled skies, rippling water and human onlookers engaged in a flurry of activity. At the heart of this painting is Signac's affectionate rendering of the titular 'Le Brocéliande' ship and other sailing boats which came to Paimpol to be prepared for deep-see fishing.
This work is characteristic of the highly personal watercolour style Signac developed whilst painting 'en plein air'. It was Camille Pissarro that first encouraged Signac to take up watercolour in 1888, explaining: "in just a few minutes you can take notes that would be impossible by other means- the fluidity of a sky, some transparent effects, a mass of small pieces of information that cannot be conveyed working slowly: effects are so fleeting". Signac quickly recognised that this medium enabled him to capture "the wind, the tide, the current, and the sails".
In this series of dynamic watercolours Signac adapts the structure and use of colour from his earlier Pointillist work to create a truly modern form. Like Turner and Cezanne, Signac deliberately left pencil marks visible, but contrasted these controlled lines with intuitive dabs of pure colour to bring his scenes to life.

PATRICK FLEMMING was a native of Ireland, and born at Athlone, which is remarkably situated in the counties of East and West Meath, as well as in the provinces of Leinster and Connaught. His parents rented a potato garden of about fifteen shillings per annum, upon the produce of which, and the increase of their geese, hens, pigs, etc., they wholly depended for the subsistence of themselves and nine children.
They, and their whole family of swine, poultry and progeny, all took up their lodging at night not only under the same roof, but in the same room; according to the practice of abundance of their country-people, who build only for necessity, without any idea of what we call beauty and order. One may guess from the circumstances of the father that the son had small share of liberal education, though he had the most claim to it of any one of the children, as he was the eldest. But what he wanted in acquirements was made up with impudence, a quality which in most ignorant people happily fills up their void of knowledge.
When he was about thirteen years of age the Countess of Kildare took him into her service, in the capacity of foot-boy; and finding him so utterly destitute of learning, she was so indulgent as to put him to school. But instead of being grateful to her ladyship in improving his time to the best advantage, he was entirely negligent, and discovered no inclination to his book. His lady admonished him frequently, but to no purpose; for he grew not only careless but insolent, till at last, being found incorrigible, he was discharged from the family.
It was not long, however, before he was so fortunate as to get to be a domestic of the Earl of Antrim's; but here his behaviour was worse than before. He was a scandal to the whole family, for the little wit he had was altogether turned on mischief. His Lord bore it a pretty while, notwithstanding the repeated complaints of his fellow servants, and took no notice so long as he could avoid it; but at last this nobleman also was obliged to turn him out of doors; and this was the occasion.
The Earl of Antrim was a Roman Catholic, and kept a priest in the house as his chaplain and confessor, to whom every one of the servants was required to pay great respect. Patrick, on account of his disorderliness, was often reproved by this gentleman, and he received it very well, till one day he happened to find the holy father asleep in some private part of the house in a very indecent pose, whereupon he went and got all the family to that place, and showed them what he had discovered as a revenge upon the parson, who at that instant awoke.
With respect to the servants this had the desired effect, and exposed the priest to ridicule. But the earl, when he heard it, took the part of his chaplain, believed the story a slander, and immediately gave Flemming a discharge, as desired.
Patrick found means, however, before he entirely left the neighbourhood, to rob his lordship of money and plate to the value of about two hundred pounds, with which he fled to Athenrea, in the province of Connaught.
He hid himself here in a little hut that he found for ten or twelve days, till he imagined the hue and cry after him might be over, and then made the best of his way to Dublin, where he soon entered into a gang of housebreakers, and during the space of six years was concerned in more robberies than had ever before been committed in that city in the memory of man.
While he continued in Dublin he was twice in danger of being hanged for his offences, which were so great as to make him the subject of public conversation all over the city. He now perceived he began to be too well known to stay there any longer in safety, and so he retired into the country and turned highwayman.
The chief place of his haunt was about the Bog of Allen, where he attacked almost all who passed that way, of whatever quality; telling them that he was absolute lord of that road, and had a right to demand contribution of all that travelled it, and to punish those with death who refused to comply; therefore, if they had any regard for their lives, he advised them to deliver what they had peaceably, and not put him to the trouble of exerting his prerogative.
By these means he became more dreaded in the counties where he robbed than any thief of his time, for he not only threatened those with death who disputed with him, but actually murdered several, and used many others with abundance of barbarity.
It is reported that in a few days he robbed one hundred and twenty five men and women upon the mountain of Barnsmoor, near which is a wood which they call Colorockedie, where he had assembled a numerous gang, out of which not a few at several times were taken and executed.
Persons of quality he usually addressed in their own style, and told them he was as well bred as they, and therefore they must subscribe towards maintaining him according to his rank and dignity.
Among the principal persons whom he stopped and robbed were the Archbishop of Armagh and the Bishop of Rapho, both in one coach; the Archbishop of Tuam; and the Lady Baltimore, with her young son, a child of four years old, whom he took from her, and obliged her to send him a ransom within twenty four hours, or else, he told her, he would cut the young puppy's throat and make a pie of him.
From the Archbishop of Tuam he got a thousand pounds.
After this he fled into Munster, and continued the same trade there, till he was apprehended for robbing a nobleman of two hundred and fifty pounds, or which fact he was carried to Cork and committed to prison.
But even now they were far from having him so safe as they imagined; for the county jail was not strong enough to hold him.
He was no sooner confined than his eyes were about him, and his head plotting an escape. At last he found means to get up a chimney and, by removing some few obstacles, to get out at the top, and so avoid hanging for that offence.
He followed his villainies for some years after his breaking out of prison, during which time he murdered five men, two women and a boy of fourteen years old. Besides which he mangled and wounded a great many others; in particular, Sir Donagh O'Brien, whose nose, lips and ears he cut off, for making some small resistance while he robbed him.
At last he was apprehended by the landlord of a house where he used to drink, near Mancoth. The landlord sent advice to the sheriff of the county when he would be there with several of his associates, and the sheriff, according to the instruction, came one evening with a strong guard, and beset the house.
Patrick and his company would have defended themselves, but the landlord had taken care to wet all their fire arms and prevent their going off, by which means they became useless; and our desperado, with fourteen more, was taken, carried to Dublin, and there executed, on Wednesday, the 24th of April, in the year 1650. After which Patrick Flemming was hanged in chains on the high road a little without the city.

Bet Neqofa
Ron Be'eri
In January 2012, a salvage excavation was conducted in the middle of Moshav Bet Neqofa (Permit No. A-6379; map ref. 211979–2062/634573–654), in the wake of damage caused to ancient remains prior to construction. The excavation, undertaken on behalf of the Israel Antiquities Authority and financed by Rami Levi, was directed by R. Be'eri (field photography), with the assistance of N. Nahama (administration), A. Hajian and T. Kornfeld (surveying and drafting), A. Peretz (field photography), D. Sandhaus-Re'em (ceramics), H. Seri (pottery and stone restoration), I. Lidsky-Reznikov (pottery and stone vessel drawings), T. Winter (glass), C. Hersch (drawing of glass vessels), L. Kupershmidt (metallurgical laboratory), G. Bijovsky (numismatics), R. Kool (silver pendant), D. Amit (stone bowl) and C. Amit (studio photography).
Two excavation areas were opened 130 m apart on a broad spur above the northern bank of Nahal Kesalon (Fig. 1). The spring of 'En Dilav ('Ein Naqa'a) is located c. 400 m southeast of the excavation, and the 'Ein el-Masi spring, which is blocked today, once flowed not far from the excavation area. Five settlement strata were exposed (Figs. 2–4). They date to the second half of the first century BCE (Stratum V), the first century CE (Stratum IV), the second–third centuries CE (Stratum III), the third and early fourth centuries CE (Stratum II) and the Ottoman period (the Arab village of Beit Naqquba; Stratum I). In addition, pottery from the Late Iron Age was found. Most of the remains in the excavation areas were destroyed as a result of work conducted at the site.
No ancient settlement has been discovered to date in the region of Moshav Bet Neqofa. A spearhead ascribed to the Intermediate Bronze Age and finds from the Roman and Byzantine periods were discovered in the 1970s in several burial caves excavated in and around the moshav (IAA archive, Israel Scientific Inspection Folder: Bet Neqofa Inspection). In a survey carried out in 2007–2009, remains of a ruin were documented with pottery from the Early and Late Roman, Byzantine, Early Islamic and Ottoman periods, as well as agricultural terraces, a water system and a water reservoir (Ein Mor 2013). The reservoir was only partially excavated (Kalonymos and Golding-Meir [n.d.]:24–26, Figs. 24, 25 [Site 13]). Agricultural terraces with ancient building stones in secondary used are scattered throughout the vicinity of the excavation. Many pottery sherds dating to the Iron II, Hellenistic (Hasmonean), Early and Middle Roman and Byzantine periods are strewn between the terraces. A big stone lintel that was probably part of a large building lies further up the slope, c. 20 m from the excavation areas.
The earliest activity documented in the excavation areas occurred in the Iron Age. Late Iron Age (eighth–seventh centuries BCE) pottery fragments were found in non-stratified contexts in the two areas. These include kraters (Fig. 5:1), cooking pots (not drawn) and hole-mouths (Fig. 5:2, 3).
Stratum V. Foundations of a large building constructed along a northwest–southeast axis were discovered in the southwestern area; the building's walls were severed by later construction. Only a main wall (W17), three perpendicular walls extending to the northeast (W15, W23, W31) and three perpendicular walls extending to the southwest (W21, W33, W37) were unearthed. The main wall was well-built and preserved to a height of four courses (1.3 m; Fig. 6), consisting of large fieldstones arranged as headers with several small fieldstones in between. Walls 21, 33 and 37 may have delineated a courtyard. Walls 15, 23 and 31 were built of two rows of medium-sized fieldstones and seem to have enclosed two rooms constructed perpendicular to the main wall. A low shelf was built of fieldstones along W17 in the northern room (width 2.7 m; Fig. 7). A floor (L133) abutting W17 was found in that room; in part it utilizes the leveled limestone bedrock, and in part it is made of a fill of tamped-soil and small fieldstones. A floor exposed in the southern room (width 1.65 m; Fig. 8) consisted of a level bedrock surface that was one meter lower than the floor in the northern room.
A bronze coin of Alexander Jannaeus (L136; IAA 140989), minted in Jerusalem in 80–76 BCE, and pottery from the second half of the first century BCE were discovered in the foundation of the northern room's floor. A fragment of a cast glass bowl decorated with horizontal grooves on the inside and vertical ribs on the outside (Fig. 9:1) was discovered in the collapse that filled the northern room (L108). Similar bowls date to the Late Hellenistic and Early Roman periods. Fragments of pottery vessels from the same period, mainly cooking pots (not drawn) and jars (Fig. 5:6), were discovered in the foundations of W15 (L140) and W17 (L139). Among the collapsed stones and in the terra-rossa soil above the floor of the southern room (L107, L124) were pottery sherds, the latest of which date to the second half of the first century BCE. These include an almost complete bowl (Fig. 5:4), cooking pots (Fig. 5:5), jars (Fig. 5:7) and a fragment of an oil lamp (Fig. 5:10).
A retaining wall (W13) discovered in the northeastern area was built of a single row of fieldstones. The wall was preserved to a height of at least four courses and was severed by mechanical equipment. The wall was inclined to the north: each course was set back slightly further north than the one below it. Fill consisting of small fieldstones (L104) abutted the wall from the northeast, whereas a fill of terra-rossa soil and several small fieldstones (L106) abutted the wall on its southwestern side. Numerous pottery sherds from the second half of the first century BCE, including jar fragments (Fig. 5:8) and a base of an unguentarium (Fig. 5:9), were discovered in both of the fills. The terra-rossa fill also yielded a bronze coin (IAA 140986) minted in 104–80 BCE.
Stratum IV. A large water channel (L121; exposed length 1.5 m, width 1 m, depth 0.93 m; Figs. 10, 11) built of two straight stone walls (W24, W25) was discovered in the southwestern area. The walls supported large covering slabs made of flat fieldstones. The bottom of the channel utilized the chalk bedrock. No traces of plaster were discovered on the walls and bottom of the channel. The eastern end of the channel ended in a short stone wall (W36) attached to W17. Fragments of pottery vessels dating to the first century CE and white tesserae were discovered in the alluvium that had accumulated in the channel after it was no longer used (L137). North of the channel, a terra-rossa fill (L115) blocked the northern room of Stratum V. The fill contained pottery sherds belonging to cooking pots (not drawn) and jars (Fig. 13:5) from the first century CE.
Foundations of a building (c. 20 sq m) consisting of two adjacent rectangular rooms were exposed c. 7 m northwest of the channel. The walls of the structure were built of one or two rows of medium-sized fieldstones and the bedrock served as the floors (L116, L131). Sherds ascribed to the first century CE were recovered from the soil accumulation overlying Floor 116. Floor 131 was about 0.4–0.5 m higher than Floor 116. Hollows and grooves in Floor 131 were filled and paved over with stones (L135). The foundation course of W33 (Stratum V) and an olive crushing installation equipped with a peripheral channel (Fig. 12) were integrated in the floor. A ceramic bottle (Fig. 13:6), a fragment of a krater (Fig. 13:8) and an elliptical stone bowl (Fig. 13:9) made by manually paring the stone with a chisel were discovered above the floor. Bowls of this type are characteristic of the Jewish material culture during the Early Roman period. The foundation of another wall (W38) was unearthed north of the western room. It was built of one row of flat fieldstones arranged as headers and apparently belonged to another room in the building, which was otherwise completely destroyed.
Pottery from the first century CE, including bowls (Fig. 13:1), cooking pots (Fig 13:2, 3), jars (Fig. 13:4) and lamps (Fig. 13:7), was discovered in the water channel foundations, the building's foundations and on its floors. Bronze coins were discovered in the foundation of W36 (L150). The latest of the coins (IAA 140998) was minted in Jerusalem by Agrippa I in 41–42 CE. A bronze coin (L131; IAA 142002) minted in Jerusalem by Tiberius in 15–30 CE was discovered on the bedrock floor in the western room, and a coin (IAA 142004) that was struck in Jerusalem in the first or second year of the Great Revolt was found in a heap of debris in the vicinity of the building.
Stratum III. A rectangular cell (L134; inner dimensions 0.8 × 0.9 m; Fig. 14) was unearthed in the southwestern area. Its walls (W26, W30, W32, W35) were haphazardly built of one or two rows of fieldstones and were preserved to a maximum height of two courses. The eastern wall (W26) was adjoined in the northwest by a wall (W22) built of one row of large fieldstones with small stones between them and was preserved to a height of two courses. A small square pillar (L122) set on the foundation of W17 was discovered northwest of the cell. It seems that the cell, W22 and the pillar were part of the same building complex. Within the foundations of the buildings belonging to this stratum (L123, L141, L144) and inside the cell (L127) were fragments of pottery vessels ascribed to the second–third centuries CE, including fragments of rilled-rim basins (Fig. 15:1).
Stratum II. A wall (W19) was discovered in terra-rossa soil in the southwestern area. Beneath it were many sherds from the Late Roman period and modern debris. A modern henhouse stands above the terra-rossa soil. Wall 19 was haphazardly built of one row of small and medium-sized fieldstones that were placed above a layer of gray earth containing many sherds and small fieldstones (L118, L119). Wall 19 was adjoined by another wall that was constructed of small fieldstones as a continuation of W21 from Stratum V. Both walls were abutted by stones surfaces (L112, L114, L117) that probably constituted part of a fill. Fragments of pottery and glass vessels from the Late Roman and Early Byzantine periods were discovered in the walls' foundations (L125, L138) and on the stone surfaces (L113, L126). The ceramic assemblage mostly consists of serving ware and tableware, generally typical of assemblages of the Roman army in the Jerusalem area. The most common vessel is a shelf-rim basin (Fig. 15:2). Other finds include a fragment of a platter (Fig. 15:3), several sherds of rouletted bowls (Fig. 15:4, 5) and a table krater (Fig.15:6). The glass vessels are typical of the Late Roman period and include a bottle or jug with a trail wound below the rim (Fig. 9:2), a bottle or jug with a ridge below the rim (Fig. 9:3) and a small, solid base of a beaker (Fig. 9:4). A bronze handle (Fig. 16), probably that of a mirror, was discovered in Fill 118. A mirror with a similar handle was found in the Cave of the Letters, dating to the time of the Bar Kokhba revolt (Yadin 1971:157–158). Also discovered in this fill were two bronze Roman coins, the latest of which (IAA 142006) was minted in 383–395 CE. Another bronze Roman coin (IAA 142007) minted in 324–408 CE was found in the southern part of the area (L129).
Stratum I. A deep fill of small fieldstones and pottery sherds (L105; Fig. 17) retained by two narrow walls (W11, W12) was discovered in the southwestern area. The walls were constructed of one row of medium-sized fieldstones. Wall 11 was preserved to a height of ten courses (1.98 m). A pendant made out of a 1774 silver coin struck in in Constantinople during the reign of the Ottoman ruler Mustafa III (1757–1774 CE; Fig. 18) was found.
A fill of small fieldstones and potsherds (L104) and two poorly preserved walls (W10, W16) were discovered in the northeastern area; alluvium (L102) accumulated on the surface. Many sherds dating to Iron Age II, as well as the Hasmonean, Roman, Byzantine and Late Ottoman periods were found. It seems that the walls were used to retain agricultural terraces of the Beit Naqquba village, and that the fill was brought there from the ancient site.
The most important contribution of the excavation is the discovery of a site that was previously unknown to researchers. The antiquities discovered there include remains of a large building from the time of Herod (Stratum V), remains of a building and a covered water channel from the first century CE (Stratum IV), sections of walls from the Middle Roman period (Stratum III) and the Early Byzantine period (Stratum II) and remains of agricultural terraces belonging to the Arab village of Beit Naqquba (Stratum I). The architectural remains that were revealed extended beyond the limits of the excavation area. The finds from the two earliest strata suggest that the remains were part of a Jewish village from the Second Temple period. After 70 CE, a settlement was built on top of the Jewish village. It continued to exist during the Middle and Late Roman and Byzantine periods.

The Providence Republican Party wishes to respond to Mayor Ciccilline's recent State of the City address. We have suggestions on how to improve education for all our children, hold down taxes and spending, and provide honest, ethical government.
We applaud Governor Carcieri for proposing to give an additional $3.9 million in school aid to Providence in this year's state budget. Since the state will not raise taxes; and the General Assembly will not take money away from the other 38 cities & towns to give to Providence; we urge the Mayor to accept this aid graciously and not demand even more.
We also commend the Governor for proposing to give $600,000 more to the Metropolitan Career & Regional Technical Center (The Met), a network of small alternative High Schools in Providence.
And we especially commend the Governor for proposing an end to the moratorium on Charter Schools, which benefit Providence more than any other city. ( Rhode Island is the only state in the nation which legally blocks the creation of new Charter Schools, that provide a superior education at low cost, due to their freedom from burdensome teachers union controls). Providence currently has the legal limit of 4 Charter Schools (Textron, Cuffee, Highlander & Times 2), but would easily have a dozen or more if allowed to. The Mayor should support legislation to allow Providence an unlimited number of Charter Schools.
We also praise the Governor for trying to make it easier for scientists and engineers to teach math and science in the Providence schools, without having to take all sorts of worthless education courses to gain certification.
We also give credit to the Governor for having the state take oversight over Hope High School, and starting the process to straighten it out. While the Mayor tries to claim responsibility for this, we note that the State Department of Education had to step in, after the city and the teachers union were unable or unwilling to act.
We applaud the efforts of School Superintendent Donnie Evans to improve public education in Providence. But we recognize that he cannot succeed unless we find ways to reduce costs, relieve overcrowding, and provide competition that forces the teachers union to relax its stranglehold on needed reforms.
The time has also come to consider using school vouchers for private & parochial schools, as a way to reduce the city's education costs. This would eliminate overcrowding; end cross-town forced busing; remove the need for costly new buildings; and improve education for everybody.
To balance the city budget without raising taxes, we call on the Mayor to look for ways to spend less, while still providing the same level of services. Specifically, we call on the Mayor to actively support Cranston Mayor Steve Laffey's "Taxpayers Relief Act Of 2006", a creative series of bills that would allow cities to spend less money, by relieving them from unfunded state mandates. Laffey's legislation would relieve the city from several costly mandates, involving school busing, special education, and property revaluation. The legislation would also lower pension costs by raising retirement ages and reducing cost of living adjustments; waive some education regulations; clarify management rights on privatization, layoffs, pensions & health insurance; and control health costs.
We also call on the Mayor to propose additional cost-saving legislation not included in Laffey's bills. We suggest repeal of the prevailing wage law, that drastically drives up the costs of construction work and services contracted for by the city. We also call for an "Unfunded Mandates Act", that would relieve cities from complying with any mandates that are not funded 100 percent by the state.
The School Department offers the best opportunity for reducing spending, since this is 55 percent of the city budget. We say there should be fewer children in costly special education programs, which cost twice as much per child as regular programs. The percentage of children in special ed in Providence (and in R.I. as a whole) is double the national average.
We urge the Mayor to follow Mayor Steve Laffey's wonderful example in our neighboring city of Cranston. There, Mayor Laffey has successfully taken on special interests (like the crossing guards), and has been able to convince most unions to accept reasonable compromises on health benefits and work rules. Providence needs to do the same.
We join the Mayor in urging the Democrat - controlled City Council (14 Democrats, 1 Green, & no Republicans) to finally pass an Ethics Ordinance. But we would go further than the Mayor's proposal. We ask the Council to refuse all contributions from city workers or people who do business with the city. This would encourage even more economic development in Providence.
There are many people who wanted to bring their business to our city under the previous administration, but were unwilling to pay bribes, kickbacks, or political campaign donations. Now, these businessmen are streaming into our city, knowing they do not have to pay up. If the City Council would do its part, we could do even better.

This series was developed during a long winter. To counter the gloom and doom of long cold nights, I paid reverence to creatures of the night. Some of my favourite animals have evolved or adapted to evening activity to survive and thrive. Each animal is paired with a plant of significance. These species are paired because of their natural and cultural connections. The series also reads as a kind of alternative to saints. Each animal stares right back at you. So often our encounters with animals are swift: they run to hide, they avoid human interaction. Indeed for most animals being people-shy is a survival strategy. This series allows us to face these creatures, to become the subject of their gaze, to see them in a way that we are not normally permitted.
This series was developed because of a fascinating fact that I learned about species that undergo complete metamorphosis: in transition they turn completely to liquid before emerging in a completely new form. Insects are simply awe inspiring. The transformation they make spoke to my own path as a person. I understand that I am made of the same material that I was in a former state, but in a lot of ways I feel like I have transformed. They way I understand my own mind, my body and my relationship to those around me has grown and shifted immensely over time.

Zenit St Petersburg seal historic Europa League comeback from 4-0 down to beat Dinamo Minsk 8-5 on aggregate
Russian side did it while down to ten men and their feat is the biggest comeback in 33 years - but fans were not in the ground to see it

ZENIT ST PETERSBURG completed one of the most amazing comebacks in European football by overturning a 4-0 deficit to win 8-1 - but nobody was there to see it!
Supporters went mad on boats outside the ground as the Russian side played Dinamo Minsk behind closed doors after fans were done for racism back in June.

What's more, Zenit completed the turnaround - the biggest Europa League comeback in 33 years - with just ten men on the pitch.
Leandro Paredes was sent off with 18 minutes of normal time left.
But earlier Russia's World Cup hero Artem Dzyuba scored twice to level the scores 4-4 on aggregate and take it to extra-time.
It looked all over when Minsk star Seidu Yahaya grabbed an away goal nine minutes into extra-time.

But Argentine forward Sebastian Driussi gave the hosts hope with 11 minutes to go, completing his hat-trick on the night.
Robert Mak's penalty then made it 7-1 on the night - and Dinamo's Maksim Shvetsov was sent off for giving away the spot kick.
With 123 minutes on the clock Mak bagged another to make it 8-5 on aggregate and 8-1 on the night.
Paredes scored the first of the night in the 22nd minute and Christian Noboa made it 2-0 in the 66th minute.

The last time a team overturned a four-goal deficit was in 1985 when Real Madrid came back from 5-1 down to beat Borussia Monchengladbach.
That levelled the scores and Los Blancos won the last-16 tie on away goals.
Zenit will now face Molde, managed by ex-Manchester United star Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in the play-off round.


As tourism increases in Yosemite, how is the park's identity — its sense of place — changing? In YosemiteLand's debut episode, Ezra orders Starbucks while taking in majestic waterfalls, meets researchers studying how people experience the park, and looks at how Yosemite's planners are rethinking popular destinations to make them more sustainable. You'll encounter a bear up close, and Ezra will visit some of Yosemite's oldest inhabitants: giant sequoias.
In a previous version of this episode Ezra mispronounced Kara Stella's name and title. It's been corrected. She is a ranger.

On The Fargo Park Lurker: Does The Public Have A Right Not To Be Creeped Out?
July 14, 2015 | by Rob Port
Here's a strange story.
A man was noticed to be lurking near a city park/pool in Fargo, taking pictures and generally acting suspicious. The man who noticed him, Jed Felix, instigated a confrontation asking the unidentified lurker what he was doing.
"He said he was just taking pictures and that he was an artist," Felix told the Fargo Forum. "He said it's completely legal."
On that the lurker was right. There is nothing illegal about hanging around a public park taking photographs. But when you're hanging around a park full of kids, some of whom are in bathing suits, and you're taking pictures of them you're going to creep some people out.
Thus, when Felix wrote about the situation on Facebook, people were outraged. The man Felix confronted was interviewed by the police, and he has now been banned from some Fargo park district property (splash pads and pools I'm told).
Some posting on social media claim that they've seen him previously behaving similarly in city parks, though who knows if those reports are accurate.
[mks_pullquote align="right" width="300″ size="24″ bg_color="#000000″ txt_color="#ffffff"]As a parent I can say that I would be alarmed if some stranger were hanging around a park taking photographs of my kids, but as a citizen what I see here is a man who broke no laws yet has become the target of online vigilantism and a ban from some public property.[/mks_pullquote]
But, is this right? As a parent I can say that I would be alarmed if some stranger were hanging around a park taking photographs of my kids, but as a citizen what I see here is a man who broke no laws yet has become the target of online vigilantism and a ban from some public property.
I wish we knew more about why this man was at the park taking photographs. To be sure, the man is doing himself no favors with his cryptic answers to questions about his behavior and his seemingly cavalier attitude about it. But the fact remains that he broke no laws, and while it's understandable that people don't want strangers conducting surveillance on them or their kids, it is also true that nobody has a right to privacy in a public park.
I have some experience with this topic.
For almost a decade I worked as a private investigator, and surveillance was a big part of my job. Most of my work was related to insurance fraud – people scamming insurance companies by pretending to be injured, etc. – and I probably spent anywhere from 30 to 50 hours per week surveilling people. A big challenge in doing that job was lurking, observing, and documenting while not coming off as an enormous creep like this guy.
An online poll of Fargo Forum readers shows overwhelming support for the anonymous lurker's banishment from city park property.
We had some rules in place to protect us, though. For one thing, before I would go out on a case I would notify law enforcement of the areas I'd be working in so that they could contact me if anyone called me in as suspicious. For another, we tried to avoid working near parks or schools or anywhere else children were present, and when it couldn't be avoided we operated using extreme caution. But a few times I still got called out by people who were, understandably, concerned about my presence, and that put me in an awkward position.
Because the cases I was working were confidential, as you might imagine, and I could hardly tell the people confronting me that I was watching so-and-so across the park who is playing volleyball even though he's collecting disability checks for a back injury.
I did have credentials, however, and I tried to be as transparent with those questioning me as I could. Still, I shudder to think what would have happened in the social media age had someone decided to post photos of me and my vehicle/license plate numbers on Facebook or Twitter.
I'd hate to have been put in the position our anonymous lurker is now in.
Which brings me to my point: Are we jumping to conclusions here? Have we judged this man too quickly? Have we wounded his reputation without any evidence that he intended anyone any harm?
I wish the public was a little more interested in understanding what this guy was doing, and why he was doing it, before we brand him as a pervert or worse. But judging from the public's reaction to this incident – an online poll of Fargo Forum readers showed overwhelming support for the banishment – most seem comfortable with jumping to conclusions.
Maybe it'll turn out that this guy is a total creep. But would tlhat justify this knee-jerk reaction before we really knew anything?
UPDATE: It looks like this gentleman has been cited for possession of marijuana.
