It is located just under the mountain Vidova gora, the highest peak of Dalmatian islands, and it is famous for the most attractive Adriatic beach - Zlatni rat or The Golden Point.
With its numerous cultural and historical sights, it is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Croatia. The scenery, the mild and pleasant climate and the crystal clear sea make Bol a perfect holiday destination throughout the year. Beautiful beaches of the island attract tourists from all over the world and Zlatni rat stands for the most beautiful and has become a symbol of the island. The beach was formed by waves washing golden pebbles on top of an underwater reef and extending to 500 meters into the sea. Due to winds, waves and sea currents the tip of the beach changes its shape making the beach always interesting and different. Besides its stunning scenery, Bol offers its guests rich cultural and historical heritage starting with a Dominican monastery and its rich archaeological collection, numerous Baroque summer mansions, a parish church, but also rustic plebeian stone houses surrounding "pjacete" (tiny squares typical for Dalmatia). Also, Bol offers many sports and recreational activities such as cycling, scuba diving or windsurfing. An imperative when it comes to Bol is experiencing its Dalmatian cuisine. The restaurants and inns of Brač are known for their fish specialities served with the famous Brač wines.
A must visit on Island of Brac - Vidova Gora ( Vidova mountain), the highest mountain of all Adriatic islands (778 m above the sea level). Vidova gora is not only a peak with its beautiful view - in 2009 the Educational Track "Vidova Gora" was renovated and opened to guide walkers and mountain bikers through the most atractive parts of the road and educate them about the unique destination - Landscape protected by law. Vidova gora is covered by Dalmatian black pine (Pinus nigra). Mount Vidova gora has preserved its indigenous appearance and untouched nature, and around it the local inhabitants still engage in cattle-breeding in an old-fashioned way. That contributes to nature preservation and gives a special charm to the idyllic atmosphere of this timeless oasis of peace and bird's song. It was named after the small church of St. Vid, which stand at the top of the hill.
The church was built in the 13th or 14 century. About Vidova gora were knitted a number of fantastic stories, mostly of Slavic origin. Long before the arrival of the Slavs to the Adriatic, at Vidova Gora the Illyrian people have had forts. The remains of these walls may still be seen at some places.
We expect you to join us in this beautiful day trip. You are welcome.
This day trip starts from Split. For more info and options you can call us on the phone or through the mail form on the site.

The VSB-30 is a two stage Brazilian sounding rocket. It consists of a S-31 rocket as first stage combined with a VS-30 second stage.
The VSB-30 vehicle is a two-stage, unguided, rail launched sounding rocket, consisting of a solid propellant S31 rocket booster, a boost adapter, the second stage S30, payload, a recovery and a service systems. Motor and payload are connected by an adapter section and they are separated by pneumatic pistons. The vehicle is designed to fly in a spin stabilized unguided mode. The spin stabilization is achieved by using canted fins. To reduce impact dispersion, the vehicle is equipped with three spinup motors, installed in the booster adapter. The fins are arranged in the standard three-fin configuration and they are nominally set to 18' (S31) and 21' (S30), respectively, causing the vehicle to spin from lift-off through burnout. The roll rate at burnout is approximately 3.3 Hz. Total burn time for the S31 is 16.0 seconds and 32.0 seconds for the S30. Both motors have a 55.7 cm diameter. The typical length is 12.6 m, depending on the payload.
The rocket can carry a payload of 400 kg to an altitude of 270 km.
The rocket has been used from a number of launch sites: Alcantara in Brazil and Andøya and Esrange in northern Europe. A launch from Woomera is also planned.
The S-31 improved Orion is a combination of the VSB-30 stage 1 booster with the US built improved Orion as upper stage.
This combination was devloped for The O-STATES mission to be launched from Esrange. It carries a payload of 225 kg to an altitude of 240 km.
The S-31 improved Malemute is a combination of the VSB-30 stage 1 booster with the US built improved Malemute as upper stage.

Pal Arinsal, dénommé parfois Vallnord - Pal Arinsal entre 2004 et 2022, est une station de sports d'hiver des Pyrénées située sur le territoire de la paroisse de La Massana, en Andorre.

Géographie

La station est localisée dans la paroisse de La Massana est composé de deux secteurs :
Secteur Pal, situé sur le territoire du village de Pal;
Secteur Arinsal, situé sur le territoire du village d'Arinsal.

Le coeur de la station de Pal est située à  en hauteur du village de Pal situé à . Elle est accessible depuis La Massana et Pal par la CG-4 puis la CS-420 ou en télécabine directement depuis La Massana (depuis 2004).

La station de Arinsal est également située à  en hauteur du village de Arinsal situé à . Elle est accessible depuis La Massana et Arinsal par la CG-4 puis la CS-413 ou en télécabine/télésiège directement depuis Arinsal.

Le domaine est frontalier avec l'Espagne par la commune d'Alins (comarque de Pallars Sobirà) et est séparée par le Port de Cabús.

Histoire

En 1973 est créé le domaine d'Arinsal par Josep Serra, mais ce dernier doit le céder au comu de La Massana pour des raisons financières.

En 1983, une initiative publique fait naitre le domaine de Pal ainsi que celui d'Ordino Arcalís. Josep Serra est alors le premier à faire de la publicité pour sa station, ce qui attire les écoles et surtout des touristes anglais.

Jusqu'en 2000, les deux stations Arinsal et Pal sont indépendantes mais elle se rapprochent avec l'inauguration du téléphérique Tph50 de type Doppelmayr, qui permet de passer d'une station à l'autre.

En 2004, la station Pal-Arinsal se rapproche de la station d'Ordino Arcalís pour former le domaine skiable Vallnord et prend alors le nom de Vallnord - Pal Arinsal. Cette même année, le télécabine depuis la Massana (2S de la Massana) est inauguré, ce qui permet d'arriver à la station de Pal sans monter obligatoirement par la route.

En 2018, la station d'Ordino Arcalís quitte le domaine Vallnord pour se rapprocher de Grandvalira.

En 2022, elle imite la station d'Ordino-Arcalis et rejoint le domaine Grandvalira Resorts qui regroupe l'ensemble des stations andorannes.

Day 7 – It Comes At Night
Director:Trey Edward Shults .
Starring. Joel Edgerton, Riley Keough, Christopher Abbott, Carmen Ejogo, Kelvin Harrison Jr. USA. 1h 37m.
In the aftermath of a apocalyptic virus that has wiped out most of our modern civilisation a family tries to carve out an existence in the backwoods of the USA, after bringing in some outsiders their laus trophic tale brings the two families together before everything gets ripped apart.
Trey Edwards Shults (a name that's hard to forget but easy to misspell) worked as a crew member on Terrence Malick movies and it seems that the experience has left a big impression on him, after his low budget debut SXSW, about an eccentric woman show up to a family reunion, he now digs his heels into horror that's not quite horror… *gulp* post horror? This impressive movie whose title seems to have little to do with the content of the film.
Joel Edgerton stars in this highbrow horror, his main objective is to protect his wife and family who have evacuated to the lush wooded area to avoid contamination from a plague which appears to have wiped out a majority of the population. The film begins with his father in law wheezing out of existence, in the middle of the night, until they take him to a shallow grave and put a bullet in his head. They burn his body and retire for the night. Later on they are broken into by a masked man who doesn't seem to display any signs of infection but Joel, the ever paranoid man still ties him to a tree and leaves him over night. In the morning the stranger, scared, hungry and apologetic, forgives the family and offers what food he has (a few chickens and goats) if they agree to help him and his family, safety in numbers. Moments after setting out to collect the livestock and kin, they are set upon by a couple of rednecks with guns, they shoot up the car but Egerton takes them out, this is only real outside contact and only real scene of violence until the grizzly ending.
Eventually the families meet up, simple rules are set out, but the Egerton's son, a new face(?) Kelvin Harrison Jr. , is a troubled boy, his character is hyper sensitive, and he often perceives things which aren't they, his surreal and potent dreams depict his dying grandfather and his fears of contracting the virus keep him on edge. After seeing "something" in the woods, the boy and his dog wander into the woods, the dog chases after the mystery but the boy is too afraid of what he's seeing but can't explain. What did he see, and what was the dog chasing? Later on he draws pale faces in between the trees, but as an audience we see nothing? This is the mystery of the movie, it starts to trip up its audience thinking along alternative lines, is there a entity in the forest? Is there really a virus, maybe this is a case of mass hysteria. As you start to read between the lines, and notice the lies often told by the new family over the last drop of alcohol in the candlelight.
The film has a clear beginning, middle and ending, and it's full of suspense, and epic creepy moments and superb drama which works together as you gather the notion that something is not quite right; this isn't a standard zombie movie, it's not a clear apocalyptic film, it's very different and this will put a lot of people off guard. It does gather together all of the elements of horror, but only touches on them lightly, as If the bigger picture is really the drama laced heavily with suspicion and deep anxieties it's amazing anyone manages to keep their shit together, or maybe they have gone insane? It's hard to tell at times.
I'm still struggling to work out what it is, but my guess is that it's death and it certainly does come.. Mostly at night. It's an interesting project but at times can be a bit too ambiguous.

All parents are familiar with the situation when a childnot interested in a lot of modern and new toys, and mobile phones, pans and remotes from TVs. That is why quite often the house-craftsmen make a bis-board with their own hands. Such a device will cause the kid to do something interesting, after playing for a long enough time. Return to such an interesting board the child will repeatedly, as practice shows, the toy develops many skills, as well as motor skills. If the child learns such a board, he can open and close the bottle stoppers, use locks without the help of adults, and start learning the time and numbers. If you decide to make a bis-board yourself, you can take not only the smallest members of the family, but also the older sisters and brothers.
To carry out the work on the production, you will need a board, sealant, fasteners, glue, filler for the bisbord, as well as your own imagination.
Making a bis-board with your own hands, you shouldyou will think about which components are best used. Experts advise to prepare such a board, which will form the basis of the product. It should have a thickness of 1 cm or more. It is important to stock up the seal. Its thickness should be equal to the corresponding parameter characteristic of the board. As fasteners, you can use nails or screws. You will need a hammer, a screwdriver and scissors. Screwdriver will make the work in the shortest possible time. Take care of the presence of pliers, which can be found in the arsenal of any home master. Making a bisyboard with your own hands will be quite simple with the use of construction or hot glue. The filling of the board will depend on the budget and desires, which will be influenced by the future skills of the baby.
You can fix on the surface an old phonedevice that has a disk dialer. Children quite willingly play by scrolling the dial. Take care of the presence of door bells, switches and voltage regulators. Well, if on the board there will be a block with numbers that reminds the counter. The kid will strive to learn the time, if you add a bisyboard with hours with arrows, then he will become interested in this new subject for him. Figures will be stored in memory if you supply a construction with a calculator, which must be in working order. You can strengthen the mirror and the old mobile phone. In the process of how the bizyboard is made by hand for children, locks with keys are often used, the last of which is recommended to be fastened to the rope in order to exclude the loss on the first day. It is necessary to prepare a latch, bottles of bottles that are equipped with lids, hooks, a rotary lock and an old computer mouse. Experts advise to supplement the board with a block with bright buttons, all kinds of geometric shapes and elastic bands. If there is a cooler with a fan, borrowed from the old computer, then this will also appeal to the child. You can make yourself a small door and a window that differentiates the games of the baby. Making a bisyboard with your own hands for children, you can supplement it with all sorts of interesting details, it can be a lighted bulb that starts working when you press a button, or a belt buckle. If possible, a cloth with buttons and slots can be fixed on the board, which can be used for fastening and unbuttoning. There is not a single child who is not interested in forks, sockets and all sorts of wires. In order to exclude pampering with real objects that work from electricity, you can supply a board with the named components. In every house there will most likely be bills, which will also be of interest to the child. Prepare all kinds of gears, laces, taps and chains for doors. This list can be continued indefinitely.
Before you make your own bisyboard, you can visit the garage, balcony or places in the house where old things are stored.
The prepared board should be enoughthick, so that the fixation of the elements with the help of screws and nails does not lead to the fact that the fastener will be visible from the back side. The edges should be pasted with a sealant, whereas if you purchased a blank, you should ask to close the edges with proprietary slats. If the treatment has not been carried out, the edges must be carefully ground and varnished. This will eliminate splinters.
If you decide to make a bisyboard with your own hands,The master class presented in the article will help you with this. Before fixing all the components of the board in its place completely, it is recommended to arrange them to understand how best to use the space. You should try to arrange the elements in a rather interesting order. For example, windows and doors can become part of a house, whereas a clock is recommended to be placed on the roof, especially if the mechanism is small enough. The neck of the bottles can become part of the wheels of the locomotive, which, in turn, is made of switches.
Before you make a biz card for your childhands, you should evaluate your artistic abilities, because if you have them, you can paint the background with acrylic paints. If you do not have certain skills in drawing, then using the same colors, draw a contour with a ruler. Pictures and all sorts of patterns can be cut out of magazines, and then glued to the surface using PVA glue.
Making a bisyboard with their own hands for girls,you can stick as many mirrors as possible. Machines can be replaced with dolls or kitchen appliances. After the objects are selected, they must be securely fixed. The more components will be screwed with metal fasteners, the better. Some of the elements can be planted on the glue.
Care should be taken that those elements,which can be removed, were also well secured, this is necessary for safety. This includes a plug that plugs into the socket, a chain lock, and keys. It is recommended to arrange something interesting behind the door, so that the kid is entertaining to use this design. It can be an envelope with a gift or an image of a favorite hero.

But in late 2014, the museum announced plans to recorrect the damage done to the Enterprise over the years—a re-restoration project to undo the former restoration, bringing the model back to its original on-screen form. Finally, nearly two years later, the process is complete. The Enterprise was unveiled in its new home in a climate-controlled display in the museum's Milestones Exhibit on July 1st.


Create Louisiana, an ongoing effort to support and develop creative industries of the state and showcase their contributions, has announced the 2016 Create Louisiana Filmmakers Grant.
In partnership with the Louisiana Endowment For The Humanities, the New Orleans Film Society, and Create Louisiana, production teams may apply for the $50,000 grant towards creating a short film.
"We wanted to structure the initiative to give back to a local filmmaker," says Jolene Pinder, executive director of the New Orleans Film Society. The campaign is being promoted through social media and development programs.
Applications will open in August. Film projects would be completed within 12 months of receiving the award, with the finished project set to screen at the 2016 New Orleans Film Festival.

The Duplicitous Deadwood Derek Clark MEP for EUkip East Midlands ACCOUNTS!
I published these accounts annonymously CLICK HERE, concealing the identity of the scoundrel concerned but it seems that Junius has identified whose accounts they were.
Therefore here they are again shown clearly to be Deadwood Derek Clark's accounts.
The East Midlands have been in termoil ever since his election, which was based on a promise that he would stand down at the end of the year in favour of Ian Gilman who had organised most of the effort to get him elected. That Derek Clark lied and reneged on his undertakings is little surprised since having been a school teacher long retired the huge sums of money he was making for very little effort and being perceived as important in some way has clearly turned his head and he has undeniably gone native with virtually no interest or effort in the constituent that foolishly elected him.
Derek Clark having betrayed his electorate and our Country with boasts in public how he was defrauding the EU and how easy it was – shortly afterwards this odious man in collusion with the utterly untrustworthy Douglas Denny and the treacherous Gerard Batten orchestrated a Kangaroo Court against his own elected Regional Chairman based on Clark's dishonesty and corruption – a show trial with no evidence, less competence, scheisters organising it and an attempt to prevent the loyal UKIP activist Peter Baker remaining in his elected office with a denial of the fundamental human right of a defence!
Clearly this EUkip is unfit for office unfit for purpose long before it allied with the racist, anti Jewish and pro EU xenophobes of The EFD so many people had such hopes that UKIP was our lifeboat the vehicle to save our Country until it took a plunge into the gutter and enjoined in EU politics, seeing its role it would appear as being to expose the excesses of EU profligacy, pampering and perloining by the politician a pastime the new EUkip joined in with much vigour.
By way of provenance even a non entity long retired schoolmaster has accrued his own investigation for swindling the public as a near octogenarian who has harmed rather than helped the EUroSceptic cause earning himself a relative fortune whilst ostensibly leading his entire EU Region into a General Election with a local organiser who is a drunk with no license on £800 a week and less than one week of his salary as a war chest!
Before you read Clark's tissue thin accounts and note he names no employees yet has a budget of around £200,000 for the 4 he does employ!
This allowance is for payment to Employees, Self Employed Service Providers and Accredited Assistants who support the work of the MEP.
Any part of this allowance not used remains in the EU budget.
Any staff based in Brussels are known as accredited assistants and are paid direct by the Parliament. At no time in any of these cases does any money go into the MEPs bank account.
This allowance covers the cost of carrying out the duties of an MEP not covered by other allowances, including running an office and associated expenditure.
All costs incurred meet the published Parliamentaty rules.
I found several things here decidedly iffy – it seems this chap has drawn somewhere in the region of £18,000 more than he has spent, which seems rather a lot to just trouser, but of course I may be reading it wrong as that would make a clear bonus of about £36,000 a year!
Then of course there is no statement of the money for Nigel's slush fund the 401? fund!
I also note he only worked for 28 days since June 4th. when he was elected (why am I not surprised) unlike Sinclaire's accounts he seems not to have many staff and doesn't list them.
Sinclaire lists and names 9 staff whilst this chap has only 4, so on an allowance of £195,000 or so that sounds like a whacking rate of pay for people not even worth naming!
All in all they are something of an embarrassment when you look at them – am I missing something?
Well lets see what you make of these accounts and then you can compare them with the next EUkip MEP's set I publish!

Imagine Entertainment created a CEO position when it hired former Endemol Shine North America co-CEO Charlie Corwin in late 2016. The company has reverted to its previous structure with no CEO following the exit of Corwin who quietly left the company in December after about a year in the job. He is believed to be raising money for a new media company, with Imagine among his investors.
"We totally believe in Charlie, in his entrepreneurial skills and passion and are invested in him going forward," Imagine Entertainment co-chairman Michael Rosenberg told Deadline.
Corwin was brought in as part of a ramp-up of Imagine's executive ranks as partners Brian Grazer and Ron Howard were starting to build a big independent studio with the $100 million investment the company received from Raine Group.
Over the past year, Imagine entered into a TV co-financing venture with Hong Kong based TVB Ventures, with TVB Ventures committed to investing $100 million to develop and produce Imagine Television projects. Imagine TV also inked a four-year co-financing, first-look agreement with CBS Corp. for scripted and unscripted television and long-form digital programming.
The company has remained aggressive following Corwin's exit, acquiring comedy series producer Jax Media in February.
Corwin comes from entrepreneurial background. He co-founded and led Original Media as its CEO until Endemol acquired a majority stake in November 2007. He subsequently became co-CEO of Endemol Shine North America.

how many Popsicle sticks dos it take to make a truss bridge ?
This Truss Bridge has an exact total of one hundred coffee stir sticks or as today's youngsters might call them (10^2 lolly sticks).
Click the pics if you want to count sticks yourself.. The constructs are identically symmetric.
i would have to say about 50 to 75 Popsicle sticks due to what i saw in the picture.
16 struts per segment for a stable segment not counting flooring times the number of segments. This is of course without doubling up on the struts.
Google it, I have no idea where you live.
Your question isn't meaningful without more information.
How big will it be.
Really, popsicle sticks are very cheap. If you need more buy more.

Help is arriving soon to upgrade areas roads, bridges
Georgia's year-old transportation tax ready to fund construction projects
Replacing broken concrete slabs and cleaning roadside sound barriers may not sound glamorous but they're the kinds of projects that have been a key result of the Transportation Funding Act, which marked its first anniversary Friday.
Because of the new law, "we can now leverage our federal dollars differently and a little more strategically," said DOT Commissioner Russell McMurry, who reflected on the tax's anniversary during an interview last week.
Motorists may want immediate traffic relief through added lanes, and the state has been able to prioritize bigger projects, such as widenings and new construction of roads and bridges.
"So, to the maximum extent, we are moving federal dollars to (maintenance) projects because there's a much simpler environmental process there," said McMurry, a Hall County resident.
"And then we can move our state money to some of the harder projects," such as the long-awaited widening of Spout Springs Road in South Hall.
Spout Springs may move into right of way acquisition later this year, with construction likely still a few years off.
But there are a few maintenance projects springing out of the new tax that, mixed with federal dollars, will benefit Hall over the next year: replacing broken concrete slabs on Interstate 985, striping and new raised pavement markers on I-985 and ramps, and sound wall repair and cleaning on Ga. 53 Connector.
Before 2015, state lawmakers struggled to find ways to shore up transportation funding for Georgia — a need that became more urgent as the state's population grew, fuel tax revenue dwindled and long-term federal funding didn't seem certain.
"If we hadn't changed from the model we were using, we would have really been in trouble," said state Sen. Steve Gooch, R-Dahlonega, vice chairman of the Senate Transportation Committee.
He especially cited the price of gas plummeting in early 2015 as a disturbing trend for a tax system that had depended on the price per gallon at the pump..
"That would have eliminated another $200 or $300 million in revenue, and that would have about shut down every road project in Georgia," Gooch said.
Lawmakers settled on the Transportation Funding Act, which basically eliminated the state fuel sales tax and enacted a 26-cent excise tax.
"The increased revenue equates to a roughly $770 million increase in 2016 and an $840 million increase in 2017 over the previous tax structure," DOT spokeswoman Annalysce Baker said. "Revenue is estimated to continue to grow each year and eventually increase to $1 billion."
Revenue estimates show the DOT's total 2016 funding at $1.7 billion in 2016 and $1.8 billion in 2017.
Statewide, a big emphasis in the first year has been fast-forwarding maintenance contracts.
It's been "anything from repairing bridge joints to mowing grass, striping and working on traffic signals," he said.
"These deferred maintenance activities need to be done, and we're doing them with small business contractors," McMurry said. "And it creates a new job sector where we still need contractors for, quite frankly, across the state."
At the same time, construction projects — some that had been put off because of a lack of funding — are being awarded to the tune of $100 million or more per month.
In one month, McMurry noted, the state awarded five bridge contracts across the state.
This spring, the DOT awarded a contract on replacing Boling Bridge at the Hall-Forsyth County line. The project on Dawsonville Highway/Ga. 53 over the Chestatee River is set to begin Nov. 1.
"This last year has given us the ability to jump-start a lot of work," McMurry said. "I would say that by this time, or a little bit later next year, you'll see a marked difference. You'll see a lot of projects underway — and many completed."
Still, with Hall County's many road needs, progress may seem slow. Traffic gets clogged on roads throughout the area, from Browns Bridge Road in West Hall to downtown Gainesville and Mundy Mill Road in Oakwood.
But there is blue sky ahead, thanks to the new law, McMurry said.
"We now have a path to look at (widening) Interstate 985," he cited as an example. "We actually having funding coming up soon to start ... to understand what the (interstate's) needs are, (such) as adding a lane."
Construction could start within the next 10 years.
"That sounds like a long time off, but we have the ability to get it started now where we can achieve that — whereas, in the past, that wasn't even possible," McMurry said.
Overall, some $230 million in road projects are funded for Hall, said state Sen. Butch Miller, R-Gainesville.
"There are a number of intersections that will be improved and congestion will definitely be relieved, and I think we will see that economic development and transportation are attached at the hip," he said.

The Free Speech Movement: 50th Anniversary
March 24—Today's post is provided by Ruth Tenzer Feldman and Bettina Aptheker
There are no real women of note in The Ninth Day, my recent companion novel to Blue Thread, which highlights the woman suffrage campaign in Oregon. The Ninth Day focuses instead on a fictional girl caught up in the free speech protests on the campus of University of California (UC) Berkeley in 1964. To answer what many have asked me… No, I wasn't there. But Bettina Aptheker was. Now a Distinguished Professor in the Feminist Studies Department at UC Santa Cruz, Dr. Apthetheker was a leader in what became known as the Free Speech Movement. She's helping to organize the fiftieth anniversary reunion at Berkeley on September 26 – October 1, 2014. I am honored and delighted to e-introduce you to a woman who fought for civil rights during a pivotal moment in American history—and who continues to speak out for civil rights today.
By Bettina Aptheker
We call ourselves "veterans," not of a war, but of a movement. On October 1, 1964, hundreds of us surrounded a police car on the Berkeley campus of the University of California and refused to allow the police to arrest Jack Weinberg, a graduate student in mathematics who was 'manning' a table for the Congress of Racial Equality on the campus's central Sproul Hall Plaza. We held the car for 32 hours with Jack inside and 950 police massed just outside the campus's main entrance waiting for orders to commence an assault to break us up. Shortly before 7 PM on Friday, October 3, student negotiators led by Mario Savio, who was to become the primary spokesperson for the Movement, had reached an intermediary agreement with the University President. The Free Speech Movement was born. It lasted through mid-December. In the end, after a sit-in in the main administration building that resulted in the arrests of nearly 800 students, a strike of faculty, graduate students, and staff sanctioned by the local labor council that paralyzed the campus, and the support of the entire leadership of the Black-led Civil Rights Movement, beginning with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., we won our central demands. On December 14, the Regents of the University of California stated that, "henceforth, regulations governing freedom of speech on university campuses will not go beyond the purview of the First and Fourteenth Amendments to the U.S. Constitution." Regulations governing freedom of speech changed on virtually every campus in the country, ending the Communist Speakers' bans, and most importantly allowing students and faculty to engage in political dialogue and organizing with less fear of arbitrary administrative reprisal.
Berkeley students dress in their best to support First Amendment freedoms on campus, 1964.
I was 20, a sophomore at the University of California, Berkeley at the FSM launch. I came from a prominent Communist family, raised in Brooklyn, New York, in the 1950s, through the worst of the McCarthy Era. I went to Berkeley intent on a pre-med major and escape from parental strictures. Steeped in politics all my life, myself 'manning' a table for the W.E.B. Du Bois Club (a socialist organization I had helped launch two years earlier) I was in Sproul Hall Plaza as Jack was arrested. As cries went up, "Sit down! Sit down!" I did, and launched my foray into the Movement.
FSM leader Bettina Apthecker sits on the police car housing Jack Weinberg, October, 1964. Students surrounding the car prevented the police from taking Weinberg off campus.
My first public speech was from the top of that police car at night, the guys helping me to scramble up to the roof of the car and offering encouragement, television news camera lights blinding my view of the students around it. When I quoted abolitionist Frederick Douglass, "Power concedes nothing without a demand," the crowd of thousands roared its approval. The roar soared through my body with an energy that propelled me into co-leadership of the Movement, and most importantly into a sense of personal and political empowerment I was never to forget. A year later my picture appeared in the Sunday New York Times under the headline, "The American Communist Party's Foremost Ingenue"! None of the male leaders of the movement ever received the "ingénue" distinction!
On the occasion of this 50th anniversary of the FSM, and as we recognize March as Women's History Month, it is worth pausing for a moment to consider the ways in which gender, race, class, and sexuality may effect one's access to freedom of speech. Although the First Amendment embraces a universal ideal in its wording, it was written by white, propertied men in the 18th century, who never likely imagined that it might apply to women, and/or people of color, and/or all those who were not propertied, and even, perhaps, not citizens, and/or undocumented immigrants. A woman's freedom of speech is often inhibited by fears of reprisal, for example, if she reveals sexual or domestic violence. There is almost always denial, her speech vilified, her character assassinated. Incest survivors seeking acknowledgement of their suffering and redress are viciously attacked virtually without exception, even the men who as boys were molested by their parish priests, until it became too many, the evidence too overwhelming to sustain the denial. In other words, freedom of speech is a Constitutional guarantee, but who gets to exercise it without the chilling restraints of censure depends very much on one's location in the political and social cartography.
Berkeley students now study at the Free Speech Movement Café.
We veterans of FSM were too young and inexperienced in 1964 to know this, but we do now, and we speak with a new awareness, a new consciousness, and a new urgency that the wisdom of a true freedom is inexorably tied to who exercises power and for what ends.
Bettina Aptheker is a Professor of Feminist Studies at the University of California, Santa Cruz where she has taught for more than 30 years. Her most recent book is a memoir, Intimate Politics: How I Fought for Free Speech, and Became a Feminist Rebel (Seal Press, 2006). She is married to Kate Miller, her partner of 34 years. They have three children, three grandchildren, and live in Santa Cruz, California.
Ruth Tenzer Feldman has been an attorney, editor, research analyst, ticket seller, and keypunch operator. After writing ten nonfiction books on history, she turned to historical fiction/fantasy. Blue Thread (Ooligan Press, 2012) features the woman suffrage campaign, and won Oregon's top literary award for young adult literature. A companion novel, The Ninth Day (Ooligan Press, 2013) features the 1964 Free Speech Movement in Berkeley, California. Ruth lives in Portland, Oregon, with her husband and numerous dust mites.

I was there! I had just transferred to Berkeley from a small east coast women's college in the fall of '64, and the FSM jolted me into a different world. Thanks Bettina and cohorts! Ruth, I look forward to reading The Ninth Day.

I was also there, part of the crowd, recently transferred from an eastern university. I felt proud at the range of the movement, from left to (initially, at least) Goldwater Republican. And that the Steering Committe as it evolved included, without comment, a member identified as communist.
In my view, "free speech" was a great selling point. But it wasn't really about free speech. No one denied the right of students to speak freely. What the university relinquished, in response to student and then faculty demand, was its role of protecting students in loco parentis. The issue at the time was off-campus Civil Rights groups recruiting students on campus for off campus demonstrations where they were subject to arrest. For example, at the Cadillac dealership in San Franciso. I recall a discussion about the sidewalks at the edge of campus--did they belong to the city or the university. (Answer: the city. And tabling was unhindered there.) By the way, Jack Weinberg, the trigger, was not at the time a student. He was a recruiter for CORE (Congress of Racial Equality). But the question went back several years to the student organization SLATE and and a demonstration in San Francisco against hearings by HUAC (House Unamerican Activities Committee). The argument was, students are adults; let the civil authorities deal with any alleged criminal conduct. Of interest, there is now a resurgence of interest in university adminstration resuming its role in loco parentis to protect students from sexual assault by other students. -

Hi there! I know this is kinda off topic but I'd be interested in a collaboration.
My blog covers a lot of interesting and helpful posts just like yours and I feel we could greatly benefit from each other. And also, I think you'll love my recent blog post titled How To Re-awaken A Passion & Stop Being Lazy About Your Goals
I'm hoping to hear from you too and quickly, you've got a great blog here.

I was there in 1964 and Bettina Aptheker's mind and self remain as unattractive now as they were then. Quit making a diseased person into some sort of hero. She wasn't and isn't.
Miss Aptheker, you are a vile individual. People like you are the reasons for why democracies fail.
I was not there. However, those are the kind of seminal events or moments that inspired me to come to America for my grad schooling and settle down here. Sadly, this country has been growing the wrong way for the past few decades. While conservatives' power continues, the increasing intolerance and perversion of the political correct is worse. In fact, I'm horrified and disappointed at how organic the PC culture has become to our life in the USA. It's disgusting. Aptheker and her logic is indeed scary and disgusting. She was right then. She is wrong now.

Adventist Health: Curing Inefficiency with the Cloud
By Emma Yu, Product Marketing Director, Oracle
At Adventist Health, serving the underserved is a way of life. The not-for-profit healthcare organization operates 20 acute care hospitals in the western United States, many of which are in rural areas with no other local healthcare providers.
Like other healthcare organizations, however, Adventist Health faces major challenges as it balances its patient-care objectives against the industry's push toward modernization.
"To be financially viable, we need to keep growing," said Matthew Savard, director of analytics for Adventist Health's financial planning and analytics team. "If you're not growing, you're dying." As a result, Savard said that Adventist Health was focused on growing revenue from $4 billion in 2016 to $6 billion by 2020—combining organic growth with a series of acquisitions and joint ventures with other healthcare systems.
At the same time, Adventist Health recognized the need to achieve economies of scale by centralizing support functions. "Standalone facilities are just not able to achieve the economies of scale that are necessary in order to continue to operate," Savard said. "We're focused on staying in the rural communities, but in order to support that business model, we have to be very efficient."
Savard said Adventist Health applied the same logic to its increasingly antiquated financial IT functions: separate solutions for GL, planning, and cost accounting. Some of these systems were more than 30 years old—forcing team members to spend long hours on tedious management and maintenance tasks. The antiquated systems also lacked modern analytics, forecasting, and planning tools.
According to Savard, Adventist Health wanted a modern finance system that would support the organization's strategic shift toward "one Adventist Health," with centralized support functions and a holistic planning and decision-making model. Adventist Health also wanted a solution that it could implement quickly and that users would embrace, while retaining features that served the unique planning needs of a healthcare organization.
Working with implementation partner Deloitte, Adventist Health started its Oracle Cloud journey in July 2017, when it went live with Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud and Oracle ERP Cloud. Beginning in March of 2018, in partnership with interRel, Adventist began implementation of Oracle Analytics Cloud and started work on implementing Oracle Enterprise Performance Reporting Cloud and Oracle Enterprise Data Management Cloud.
"We're looking to continue to invest in our EPM Cloud solutions to bring all of our systems together and make them work seamlessly together," Savard explained. "We've made a significant investment in cloud technologies, and we want to make sure we're leveraging the efficiencies that we can get in there."
The first stage of the implementation helped by showing exactly what was possible: Using Planning and Budgeting Cloud, Adventist Health's team immediately cut its planning and budgeting timelines in half.
"We no longer have problems with in-market teams making changes that we're not aware of that could impact our consolidated budget," Savard said. "The cloud makes each of our team members more efficient—giving us a centralized platform to get data into the tool and to tighten that planning cycle," and to maintain control over the data feeding the budget planning process.
At the same time, Savard added, Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud has eliminated most of the tedious maintenance tasks associated with Adventist Health's legacy applications. "Any time I can free up [our planning team] and allow them to get into those other spaces, there's a huge benefit to our organization."
Savard is also looking forward to using Oracle Enterprise Data Management (EDM) Cloud.
"We have at least six different cloud platforms that we've implemented at this point," Savard said. "And we see EDM Cloud as the fabric that will stitch the hierarchies together across all of those platforms." The organization's current data management efforts involve multiple teams performing tedious and inefficient maintenance, increasing the risk of reporting errors.
"We have staff members on the front lines that rely on our reporting tools to make them effective at the operational components of their responsibility," Savard said. "If I can provide financial tools that make them more efficient at their job, they have more time to focus on our patients."
As Adventist Health continues its Oracle cloud journey, the organization gets a better idea of what the future might look like with a truly holistic cloud in place: being able to put patient care first by having the tools to manage costs, make decisions, and allocate resources more efficiently—and with greater precision—than ever before.
"We selected Oracle Cloud because of the full spectrum of cloud solutions Oracle offers," Savard stated. "It is really a benefit to us to be able to move away from where we were before, with individual vendor solutions, to a single shared platform with Oracle—planning, cost accounting, ERP, HR, accounts payable—all in a single solution platform. It's really key to our overall strategy of one Adventist Health."

Home > News > Boyes Turner - Property team expansion for 2014
Nick Carter,
Boyes Turner - Property team expansion for 2014
The last six months has seen a continued rise in demand for the firm's property services across the board.
The Development team has been increasingly busy working with national and regional developers undertaking residential, commercial and mixed use schemes of all shapes and sizes. The Residential Conveyancing team has seen an influx of work as a result of the government's successful "Help to Buy Scheme" as well as a resurgence in the new homes sector, and the Commercial Property team has been active helping investors and occupiers acquire new space rather than simply concentrating on programmes of rationalisation which dominated the recession.
To meet this, a number of lawyers have been recruited with further expansion planned for later on in 2014. Recent joiners include:
Sarah Webb previously at CP Law in Wokingham. Sarah has considerable experience in dealing with a range of development matters - acting for clients, particularly house builders operating throughout the Thames Valley. She will work closely with partners Derek Ching and William Nassau-Lake in the Development team drawing up conditional contracts for new sites, representing developers taking options and as well as advising landowners on a range of projects affecting disposal of landholdings to developers.
Amie Kelsall from Darbys in Oxford who joins the Commercial Property team dealing principally with commercial property investments as well as landlord and tenant work. Her clients include a broad range of corporate occupiers as well as investors looking to manage and expand their portfolios.
Melissa Coleman, a Chartered Legal Executive who arrives from Withy King in Oxford to join the Residential Conveyancing team.
Nick Carter Head of the Property Service at Boyes Turner said:
"The recruitment of Sarah, Amie and Melissa into our team reflects the commitment to growing our already successful property practice - which continues to be ranked as the region's leading team of its type. It allows us to further expand our client base and broaden the services we provide. I am particularly pleased with the quality of the lawyers that have joined us which reinforces our ability to provide the highest levels of service."
For further information, please contact our Property team on 0118 952 7246 or submit an enquiry.

Long Branch Mayor-elect John Pallone did not show up Tuesday night to celebrate his landslide victory over incumbent Mayor Adam Schneider because he had heart surgery earlier in the day.
Councilwoman Mary Jane Celli, one of Pallone's running mates who was reelected on Tuesday, shocked the enthusiastic crowd of supporters gathered at the Italian American Memorial Association clubhouse on West End Ave. with her announcement that the mayor-elect had been hospitalized earlier in the day, according to a source who was present at the party.
The seriousness of the mayor-elect's condition and his expected recovery time were not announced.
Pallone defeated Schneider with 2,908 (62%) votes to the mayor's 1,549 (33%), with Board of Education Member Avery Grant garnering 257 votes.
In addition to Celli, Pallone's other running mates for Council, Lorenzo "Bill" Dangler, Rose M. Widdis, Mario R. Vieira, and Anita Vooght were each elected by comfortable margins.
The Schneider camp, unaware of Pallone's health scare, gathered at Charlie's Ocean Grill to watch the results come in. Expecting a closer race and hoping for a victory, the mayor's team and supporters were stunned by their margin of defeat.
Long Branch has "non-partisan" elections. So we had 3 Democratic teams facing off against each other. Conclusion? A Democrat wins! OK so Schneider had Republican support because he was one of the GOP's "don't touch" Democrats (Schneider, Hornik, Tagliarini, Menna, Doherty, prob. a couple others), where the Republicans only give weak local opposition if any at all. In return, these Dems, except for Doherty, don't run for higher office against the county Republicans. Every cloud has a silver lining, and maybe by 2022 Long Branch will be ready for the next generation's Phil Huhn.

Back at the Nando's Chicken location in the Surrey Guildford area recently, I had their Peri Peri Wings (5 pieces) and Casa Salad with a pop.
I had the mild flavour of wings, and decided to try their Garlic Peri Peri sauce. Yup, it was spicy hot and it left this burning sensation in my mouth that I couldn't quite wash away with the pop.
As for the wings themselves, I have to say I didn't think there was enough meat in them.
The service was excellent. As for the pop, there were many choices at the fountain. I had orange-flavoured Coke and also lime-flavoured Coke.
Oh, I should mention that this Surrey-Guildford location is on 101 Avenue and 152 Street (104-15190 101 Avenue, Surrey, BC), and is a sit-down style restaurant hidden behind TD Canada Trust.
