Q. Tell us about your debut novel, Marriage Material and what inspired you to write this story?
I guess the idea came together in 2011, during the riots, which affected Wolverhampton as well as London. I remember watching David Starkey, the historian, on Newsnight, feverishly blaming the riots on "a violent, destructive and nihilistic" black culture, and citing Enoch Powell's 1968 Rivers of Blood Speech, saying that the riots proved that Powell was right about immigration. People sometimes forget that Powell was a Wolverhampton MP, and if you re-read his famous speech you will find that one of Powell's targets was the policy of "integration" which he described as a dangerous delusion, unacceptable even to immigrants such as the Sikhs, who were campaigning at the time for the right to wear turbans and beards while working on Wolverhampton buses. Having done lots of research for my last book into what Wolverhampton was like in 1968, I thought it would be great to write a family story which traced the story of Sikh immigrants from 1968 all the way to the riots of 2011. And Arnold Bennett's 1908 novel, The Old Wives' Tale, which is set in a drapery shop in Stoke, provided a great structure. It is set around one family in a shop in the Midlands between around 1850 and 1910. Mine is set around a family in a Wolverhampton shop between around 1960 and 2012. They are, in the end, very different books, but I would like to think both say something important about Britain.
Q. The story primarily follows three generations of the Bains' family in Wolverhampton and their cornershop. Did you draw on your own family experiences, growing up in Wolverhampton – and how much of you is there in Arjan?
The problem with writing a memoir like my last book, quite an intimate one in my case, is that you end up invading your own privacy. I was very careful about what I said about my family – nothing appeared without their permission. But I didn't think enough about what I revealed about myself. And I probably revealed too much. In a way, writing this new book, a piece of fiction, was a way of changing the subject, to stop people asking me personal questions, or at least have something else to say. But while writing it I realised the questions would never stop – people would continue to think it is about me. So I have tried to be post-modern about it… the narrator seems to be me, but is also obviously inspired by a Bennett character too. At the risk of sounding like of Literature student – I wanted to raise questions about truth, and play a meta-fictional game with it. I hope it works.
Q. I loved your first book, The Boy with a Topknot, which was of course a memoir. How did the writing of Marriage Material differ to your first book and what was the challenges you faced when writing fiction?
Well, the biggest challenge of book one was the emotional trauma associated with the subject matter. It was nice to be free of that! But book two felt quite similar to write, technically speaking, as there is so much fact in it – a lot of research into how shops have changed over 50 odds years, the politics and so on. I see it as historical fiction really, which isn't massively removed from memoir, as a form.
Q. You mention in the acknowledgements that this book is a reworking of Bennett's Old Wives Tale – how did this come about and was it simply a case of borrowing a good idea and making it your own?
My friend Lottie Moggach gave me the Penguin Classics edition of this book and the truth is that I never got around to reading it. The appeal of "classics" rather gets knocked out of you when you study English Literature at university. There always seemed to be better things to do than tackle 615 pages by a writer better known for an omelette than for his work. In the end, I read the Kindle edition. And only because I had a long flight to India, it was free to download, and I had run out of other things to read. But it was a revelation to discover that the story, published in 1908 and about the lives of two sisters growing up in a drapery shop in the Potteries, felt more relevant than any of the free newspapers dished out in economy. This is in large part down to the universality of Bennett's themes: in particular, the generation gap (the agony of an older generation watching the rise of the younger); the clash between the provincial and the metropolitan (Bennett contrasts Sophia's life in Paris where she escapes with her lover, with that of her sister Constance in Bursley); and the threat small communities face from industrialisation (his concern about the survival of the small shop echoes now). But I was struck even more by the parallels between the world he describes and my own background as the child of Punjabi immigrants to the West Midlands. Life in the Potteries in Victorian times was hard and dangerous: just as life was for immigrants arriving to toil in Black Country factories in the 1950s and 1960s. Bennett's characters were obsessed with the acquisition of money and social status, in the same way that Punjabi Sikh culture fetishises wealth over education. Then there is the novel's presiding concern with marriage. Surreally, "Baines", with the vowel dropped, is even a common Sikh surname. Finishing the book in Delhi, it struck me that the structure of The Old Wives' Tale could inspire a TV series about a Punjabi family, with the story moved forward a century from (roughly) 1840 to 1905 to (roughly) 1940 to 2005, the setting dragged 34 miles south from the Potteries to the West Midlands, and the characters based in an Asian corner shop instead of a Victorian draper's shop. Not knowing where to begin with a script, this idea gradually morphed into Marriage Material. I would love it if my homage inspired people to give Bennett a chance. My book is meant to be a conversation with Bennett… I like the idea of the form echoing the old complaint about immigrants "coming over here and taking over".
Q. It's rare for us as readers to be in the company of a Punjabi family – so much of it is new to me, but also familiar. Why do you think that there is a shortage of books that centre or shed light on Punjabi culture?
Punjabi culture is fundamentally non-literary… or oral. People don't read books much. And education is seen primarily as a way of improving one's employment prospects and making money. But you could say the same about the communities that Bennett was writing about in 1908. And there are many parallels between Punjabi culture and Jewish culture, and Catholic culture… which is good, as a writer you want to aim for the universal.
Q. It's clever and funny writing but you deal with so much, as with your previous work, with really serious issues about race and racism, family and identity as well as independence and inter-dependence as part of those complicated and messy family dynamics with a light touch, but as the same time being careful to be truthful but also with a great deal of compassion. How did you master this sort of writing or is it a case of not over-thinking when writing?
It's not a conscious thing. But I guess a lot of writing coming out of the Midlands, from the likes of Jonathan Coe, Catherine O'Flynn and David Lodge is comic in tendency. A lot of Punjabi products, from Goodness Gracious Me to Bend It Like Beckham, are funny too. And the writers I like most, from Evelyn Waugh to William Boyd have elements of humour.
Q. Your portrayal of modern Asian men is quite damning – you have Arjan on the one hand, who is educated and purposeful but is spineless at times and afraid of his mother. On the flip side you have Ranjit, who is his polar opposite but is a pathetic loser. Do you think this is true reflection of how the Asian man (particularly the second and third generations) is today?
Totally disagree! The thing about human beings is that they are complex, and whatever you say about someone, you can usually say the opposite too. I would say Arjan is those things, but he is also dedicated and thoughtful and has great moral purpose. And as for Ranjit, he is pathetic in some ways, but also charismatic and funny. I like and dislike bits of both of them.
Q. An easier question: Were you at any point tempted to call this book The Boy in a Sweet Shop?
Ha. No. But I did consider calling it: My Mother Was Right. As a lot of my views of marriage have changed over the last decade.
Q. I love the fact that this story centres around the lives of ordinary people in an ordinary place. Do you think you're helping to set a trend among young British Asian writers to write about the places they grew up, rather than their imagined homelands that have never been home (and are obviously more mysterious and more romanticised than Wolverhampton, Mumbai for example.)
I have no sense of influencing anyone! But I admire writers who write realistically about life, from Arnold Bennett to William Trevor, Junot Diaz, Hari Kunzru and Nikesh Shukla.
Q. Finally what's next for you as a writer?
Not sure. Have an idea for another book, but have one for a script too, and am enjoying journalism massively. Let's see….
Sathnam Sanghera was born in 1976. He is an award-winning writer for The Times. His first book, The Boy with the Topknot: A Memoir of Love, Secrets and Lies in Wolverhampton, was shortlisted for the 2008 Costa Biography Award and the 2009 PEN/Ackerley Prize and named 2009 Mind Book of the Year. Marriage Material is his first novel and is out now.

A selection of press cuttings and reviews from 1998 to 2019
Foghorns and False Beacons
The last remaining foghorns around the Irish coast were switched off by the Commissioners of Irish Lights on the 11th January 2011. Advances in marine navigation technology meant that system was obsolete and no longer an aid to navigation. Foghorns and beacons represent a familiar if now outmoded technology by which we could place ourselves or be found and be brought to safety. A false beacon then conjures a dangerous sense of misdirection: we can no longer be certain of what we once depended upon.
Anthony Ruby's new body of work references eccentric or obsolete forms of technology to communicate a sense of unease and dislocation. His canvases are populated by figures whose faces are obscured by beams of light, by cyborgs and bizarre contraptions, by strange fusions of birds and dogs and skeletal horses. His painterly language, alternating between fogs of turps spatter and hyper smooth glazes, recalls the smeared perfection of a grease smudged phone screen.
Foghorns and False Beacons taps into the ambivalence that surrounds the conflation of the mechanical and biological systems, drawing on the long running fascination with the convergence of body and machine. Cyborgs, in literature and in popular imagination, are creatures of anxious fascination, at once a cypher of giddy possibility and uncanny horror, this hybrid figure initially became prevalent in the cultural landscape of Weimar Germany, after the unprecedented mechanical destruction of the First World War and the damage it left in its wake. Later in the 20th century, an early transplant patient would reflect on the significant 'psycho-philosophical anxiety' involved in his experience: 'seeing my blood outside of my body running through coils of synthetic tubing is deeply distressing [.....a] miraculous [....] powerful monster [....] with an almost-frightening hold on my life [....] reducing me to a "half-robot, half-man".'
Now however, we live comfortably connected to devices, blue tooth in ear, Google glasses supplementing vision with scrolling chyrons. The circuitry and pistons of sci-fi imagination are at once more sleek, discrete and more prosaic - the cyborg has evolved from mechano-body to techno-body. As the Italian media critic and activist Franco 'Bifo' Bernardi reminds us, 'digital and bio-technologies have turned the external machine of iron and steel into the internalised and re-combining machine of the bio-info era. [....] The machine is us.' (Franco 'Bifo' Bernardi, 'After the Future', 16)
Contemporary technologies of communication mean we are more networked and interlinked than at any time in history, but studies show how these same technologies leave us increasingly isolated and anxious, that reliance on GPS mapping stunts our cognitive processes for navigation, and that constant mediation through screens is changing our natural responses around animals and animal responses around humans. Ruby's calculatedly eccentric iconography however, more steam punk than Silicon Valley, reminds us that these feelings of alienation and anxiety are not new, but are phenomena that date back to the industrial revolution when even Karl Marx warned that dual nature of technology was 'a demonic force that reduces humans to the conscious limbs of the automaton'. (Karl Marx, 1893)

Tryout Registration and Information
Each year Maryland United FC hold tryouts. Our goal is to properly place all interested players within the player pool onto teams that best serve their ability, long term individual development, and best serve their assigned team. With access for both Boys and Girls to prominent leagues such as the ECNL and EDP for our players, we have the best platform to serve the more committed players within the region. Mid-season evaluation & player movement within the club helps facilitate players who display significant growth during the year. Financial assistance is potentially available for those who qualify.
Please see the tryout schedule on this page for age groups, coaches, dates, times and locations. Please check the website immediatey before leaving for tryouts in case of inclement weather or field changes. Weather cancellations will first go through our social media accounts.
Players should plan on arriving at least 15 minutes before their scheduled tryout time to check-in and warm-up.
If you cannot make any of the dates please contact the coach to arrange another date to tryout during regular team training nights.
Why do we have tryouts?
We have official tryouts each year as all premier travel clubs do towards the end of each spring season. Our goal is to place all interested players within the player pool onto teams that best serve their ability, long term individual development, and best serve their assigned team. Our goal is to give each team the opportunity to select new players who will have a positive impact on their teams and to also properly place players on either ECNL, EDP, or Red & White teams within their appropriate age groups. Mid-season evaluation & player movement within the club helps to facililtate players who display significant growth during the year.
How will teams be selected?
All players will tryout together in their respective age group. Teams will be tiered with nomenclature as follows with corresponding playing levels, commitment, and expectations. In the 9-12 age range the club will look to make first (Red) second (White) & third (Black) teams in the age groups where the player pool is large enough to support more than one team. In the 13-18 age range the club will look to make first (ECNL) second (Premier) & third (Elite) teams in the age groups where the player pool is large enough to support more than one team. Head age-group coaches will make final decisions after consulting with the other coaches in the age group, coaches assisting in the tryout process, and the Directors of Coaching.
Why should players be tiered?
It is important for players to be placed into environments which allow them to enjoy success, learn skills that are specific to the rate of development, and participate in both leagues and tournaments that are appropriate to the players level and enjoy their youth soccer experience. It is also very important to realize that players all mature at different rates. We regularly see situations in our club where players who are on second teams who work themselves onto first teams given time, effort, and a quality team and training environment. Mid-season player movement occurs based on merit, additional assessment, supplement tryouts and league and roster rules.
Who should I contact with questions?
Feel free to contact DOC Boys Colin Herriot, DOC Girls Harry Canellakis and the assigned team coach.
Please check the website for any field closures or changes.
Please complete the Tryout Registration Form Information Online.
Players will be contacted by the coach within 1 week after the final tryout of their status.
Players will have 24 hours to make a decison once contacted.
Upon acceptance of postion on team, players have 24 hours to officially register online and make initial payment to be considered an offical member of the team and club.

Q: Slicing an array literal I believe there is a slight problem with the Go specification. The following complains that the array literal is not addressable:
    print([4]int{2,3}[:2])

I know why an array returned from a function is not addressable (eg Error addressing the returned slice of a function) but why is an array literal like [4]int{2,3} not addressable? Especially when slice and string literals are - eg these work fine:
    print([]int{2,3,0,0}[:2])
    print("2300"[:2])

Moreover, array literals do seem to be addressable since &[4]int{42,43} is a valid expression.
I know I can use a slice
    print([]int{2,3,0,0}[:2])

but what if I wanted the capacity (array length) to be a compile-time constant.
    const maxLength = 4
    ...
    print([maxLength]int{2,3}[:2])

And yes I can assign to a temporary array variable, but why do I need to?

A: Use the following:
fmt.Println((&[4]int{2, 3})[:2])

The specification says this about slice expressions:

If the sliced operand is an array, it must be addressable.

and this about addressability:

The operand must be addressable, that is, either a variable, pointer indirection, or slice indexing operation; or a field selector of an addressable struct operand; or an array indexing operation of an addressable array. As an exception to the addressability requirement, x may also be a (possibly parenthesized) composite literal.

The array is not addressable, but the composite literal exception can be used to get an addressable value.
Array operands must be addressable because the elements of the resulting slice are addressable.  String operands are not required to be addressable because string elements are never addressable.

London pupils become conservationists at wetland centre
Written by WWT London Wetland Centre
WWT London Wetland Centre
Wetlands are essential for life. The Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust (WWT) creates and protects wetland habitats to provide water, food and shelter for people and wildlife. We save species around the world from extinction; our nine UK Wetland Centres inspire thousands of visitors to enjoy being close to nature.

Pupils from a school in Camberwell, London have been taking part in an investigative activity that allows learners to be conservation scientists for the day. The WWT London Wetland Centre is trialling Conservation Explorers, which offers schoolchildren from Key Stages 2 and 3 the chance to to study endangered birds. Sacred Heart School's budding conservationists have been measuring birds' preening rates, using digital photography to help identify species on the wetlands and more.
Sacred Heart pupils carried a GPS device which tracks their route around the WWT (Wildfowl & Wetland Trust) wetland centre. They then upload their research results to specific points on their track via a bespoke website, which provides content for further sessions once they've returned to school.
"The kids have really enjoyed the independent style of the task and using the equipment, which we don't have at school," said Sacred Heart teacher Sophie Beattie. "Seeing them using it in context and understanding how it's used by conservationists at the Trust has been great."
Since 1946, over two million pupils have visited WWT Wetland Centres, a 105-acre wetland visitor centre in Barnes, southwest London. It is an international award-winning visitor attraction and a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI).
London Wetland Centre learning manager Paul Lawston said: "Conservation Explorers allows pupils to experience real-life techniques used by WWT scientists when they're carrying out essential conservation work. They get a chance to independently explore part of the reserve carrying out their own enquiries and then use GPS technology to map their results and compare them with other classes on the web."
The Centre is home to a wide range of wildlife species including birds, water voles, bats and amphibians.

Galloway, N.J. – Rivers and streams are not just beautiful bodies of water, they also tell us stories. Alice Belskis '21 of Ocean City, Joshua Alcoba '20 of Galloway, and Tahesia Reid '20 of Trenton (pictured above from left to right) working with Aaron Stoler, assistant professor of Environmental Sciences (pictured right), are learning those stories as they investigate stream ecology at his field sites in the Adirondack Mountains. Stoler takes Stockton students up to Lake George in upstate New York several times a year where they participate in a long-term study on how stream diversity changes with surrounding human development.
"We go up for two days at a time, drive over 200 miles, and explore the food web of streams. Some of the sites are in the middle of towns and noticeably affected by humans whereas other streams are in the most picturesque, resplendent and pristine areas," Stoler said. "It is an excellent chance for students to get out of the relatively flat terrain of New Jersey and experience environmental science up close." Back at Stockton, Stoler has students sort through hundreds of samples, identifying thousands of insects, and analyzing that data using geographic information systems.
Recently, Stoler co-authored a paper with Scott Tiegs, professor of Biology at Oakland University in Michigan, and researchers from 125 other institutions from 40 countries. The paper explored how climatic factors alter the flow of carbon in and around river-based ecosystems, much like the work he facilitates with Stockton students. This cycling of carbon represents the transfer of energy from one organism to the next in a food web.
This study, sponsored by the Ecuadorian Science Foundation, found that climatic factors, such as temperature and moisture, influenced carbon-cycling rates of river-based ecosystems. Carbon cycling is critical for the functioning of systems across a range of spatial scales, from local food webs to the global climate. The study also suggests that rates of carbon cycling are more dependent on temperature among higher latitudes, where increases in average temperature due to climate change are likely to be more severe.
The paper, which was published in the latest issue of the journal, "Science Advances," noted that the climatic factors that govern decomposition rates are increasingly impacted by human activities. These findings will help researchers establish baselines to quantify environmental impacts to the functioning of ecosystems on a global scale.


What a career it was for American Alpine Skiier Lindsey Vonn. It came with a lot of bumps and bruises, but in the end she stood on the winners' podium. In the final race of her illustrious career, Vonn won the bronze medal in the Ladies' Downhill event in the FIS Alpine World Ski Championships in Are, Sweden. Vonn finished the run with a time of 1:02.23. At 34, she is the oldest woman to win a medal at the worlds. Ilka Stuhec of Slovenia took gold. The silver went to Corinne Suter of Switzerland. During Vonn's legendary career, she's participated in 4 Olympic Games winning 3 Olympic medals, she also won 8 World Championship medals, a record 82 FIS World Cup golds, and took the FIS World Cup overall title 5 times. Her career has been marked by a variety of injuries and one of those injuries caused her to miss the 2014 Winter Olympics. Despite these adversities, Vonn retires as the winningest female alpine skier of all-time.


If you're wanting to start a business this year, and you have less than $1000 to do so, this article is just for you. If you're wanting to start a business but don't quite have the funds yet, I recommend reading the article, How To Make $1000 in 45 Days Legally. This will help you accumulate the funds you need to launch your business.
This is one of the most important parts of launching a business. Having your legal aspects in order to safe guard you and your business. I personally have had some great lawyers in my life that have helped guide me with my business. However, I know everyone that can not afford legal services out the gate. What's great is if you live in a town with a law school, you can go there and use their services and their help for a fraction of the cost.
Legal Entity – Sole Proprietor, LLC, corporation and etc.
Depending on your state you could handle all your legal needs for under $300 dollars. When I started my business my LLC cost $150 and my DBA was $7. To learn more about your specific state needs input in Google "setting up small business in (insert city here)", and you will be linked to thousands of sites. Find the local state government website. Their information will be the reliable and valuable to you.
If you need to do trademarks and copyrights that is going to exceed the $300 minimum cost in the legal area.
Your brand identity is everything when it comes to your business. My website, logos, and more have changed a million times as my business has grown. It's important that when you do your logo and color scheme that it can stand the test of times. Don't worry about being trendy or hip. Think of the simplicity of Nike, Chanel, Gucci, Mercedes-Benz and others.
Some great options to help save you money are TailorBrands, Fiverr, and Bluchic, whom all offer Marketing Suite + Logo Suites at very affordable pricing. At most, you should spend $200 on your graphic design. Please Note: This is just some of the graphic design work you will need depending on your business.
This has become the most easy aspect, in my opinion, of launching. When I first started I was learning Dreamweaver and all this other stuff. Shopping cart companies are launching left and right. I shared my thoughts in an article on Bigcommerce, WordPress, and Squarespace on here a couple of months back. Those are the top three places I refer people to right now.
Shopping carts such as Squarespace and Bigcommerce, give options of templates to choose from. You can edit the CSS files in their system or by using your website backend. If you're going to launch on WordPress you have Template Monster and Bluchic as options to buy templates and to tweak the templates with. WordPress is not that overwhelming. In the article, "Launch On WordPress", I provided a step by step guide for you. I did the same with the article "Launch on Squarespace". Depending on which platform you pick and if you build your website yourself, you're looking at around $300. When you launch on shopping cart platforms versus your own, you save money because you don't have to buy hosting.
I personally believe that marketing your business has become a whole lot easier in recent years, with the help of endless free tools, resources, and platforms. You don't need a heavy marketing budget when starting out. Being consistent in your efforts will produce the most results for you. I still don't do paid advertising or marketing, yet and still I bring in more than $10K a month with a small audience.
Start-up cost for marketing is fairly low, since you can do most of this for free. You can create a free Mailchimp account. Both of these articles "Mailchimp Email Marketing" and "Email Marketing Guide" are great resources. Social media is relevantly free unless you need to add a schedule app or plugin such as Coschedule or Buffer. Call to action banners can be designed for less than $5. $100 will go very far when it comes to marketing needs.
Launching a product based company will cost slightly more than the $1000 depending on the product you're establishing. I have clients who have product based companies that launched between $1500-$3000 dollars. You have to be extremely mindful of where your money is going when it comes to products, especially if you're making the items versus buying from wholesale.
As a service based company, launching a business is a lot more easier for you versus your counterpart product based companies. You can have your business launched and ready to go within days or even hours if done right. One of the best things you can do for your site is to invest in great photos even styled stock photos. Especially your headshot, you want people to trust you and that photo will be the starting point. In addition to, great copy for your website. Focus on solving the problem and listing benefits.
The most important thing about launching a business with less than $1000 is staying within a budget. Know exactly what you want to do, before you end up spending money frivolously.

'The Wonder Years' Is Getting Rebooted With a Black Family
Matt Singer Published: July 8, 2020
Walt Disney Television via Getty
Television has not yet run out of beloved shows of the '80s and '90s to reboot. ABC announced today that they are making a pilot for a new version of The Wonder Years, which originally aired on the network from 1988 to 1993. The entire premise of the show was already about nostalgia, so there may not be a more perfect concept to capture the zeitgeist right now.
The old Wonder Years starred a young Fred Savage as Kevin Arnold, and chronicled his ups and downs growing up in suburbia during the late 1960s. Savage will direct the pilot of the new Wonder Years, which will be set during the same time period, with one very notable twist, according to its official description (via USA Today). The show is now about...
...'How a Black middle-class family in Montgomery, Alabama, in the turbulent late 1960s, the same era as the original series, made sure it was 'The Wonder Years' for them, too.' In addition to Savage, who has built a successful career directing comedies and also will serve as an executive producer, the reboot will include original series co-creator Neal Marlens as a consultant.
Lee Daniels will executive produce the series; The Last O.G.'s Saladin Patterson is the writer and executive producer.
Reframing The Wonder Years to focus on a Black family in the late 1960s could make it one of the more timely updates of a classic show in recent memory. As a kid, I loved The Wonder Years because it was a great show to watch as family — my parents talked about what life was like during the time period on the show, and I could relate to the younger characters, who were all roughly my age. If the new show can capture three generations — the grandparents who lived through that time, the parents who watched the old show, and their kids today — it could be a big hit.

Tactical Advantage has repaid his new owners with an immediate dividend and given Brenton Avdulla a fitting send-off overseas as Sydney's premier jockey.
Having his first start for Newcastle trainer Kris Lees and syndicator Australian Bloodstock, Tactical Advantage dominated the finish of Saturday's July Sprint (1100m) at Randwick.
Lees' right-hand man Cameren Swan admitted he was concerned when Tactical Advantage played up in the mounting yard but Avdulla said he relaxed well once he knew it was game on.
"He was a bit hot but once he got through the tunnel going onto the track he relaxed," Avdulla said.
"In the race I just needed to get out from where I was. Kathy (O'Hara) on Memes in front was going nowhere.
"He has been working really well but I'm not sure what level he can get to," Swan said.
"I don't know what Kris has in mind after today.
"I'll see how it goes how long I stay in Japan," Avdulla said.
"It it's going well I may stay a bit longer but I expect to be back for some part of the carnival if I have some good rides.

Anger is a culturally censored feeling in this country, one of the ultimate taboos. To lose one's temper, even more shockingly to be a person with 'anger issues' is almost by definition to be in the wrong. Yet, there are many circumstances where anger is not only the most appropriate feeling to have, but also that not expressing it can be openly harmful to oneself and others. I would say that the current state of the world and the endless politics of the pandemic generate plenty of opportunity to be furious.
Perhaps, the main point about anger is not whether it should be expressed or not, but how and where it is appropriate to express it or even indulge in it. My week was marked by a shocking incident. I had an online consultation booked for which I did not receive the zoom link in advance as promised. More than fifteen minutes after the time of the appointment, the practitioner finally emailed me the link. I logged on instantly, but was reprimanded for starting late and told that he would try to accommodate me. When I responded that I had not received the link by his secretary despite several reminders, he replied that this was unlikely, as his secretary was very efficient. It was at that point that I saw red, but being aware of the cultural code of not expressing anger directly in this country, I tried to be very measured in my response, and only stated that this did not feel like the best beginning for our meeting and that it didn't feel like I was treated fairly. At that point, the practitioner proceeded with telling me that I was a waste of his time and that he had many other 'happy' patients to tend to and he hang up on me, even though the appointment was fully paid well in advance! At least, he had no difficulty expressing his anger! Later on, his secretary wrote to me to apologise that she had indeed not sent the zoom link. I am somebody who very rarely makes formal complaints or reports unacceptable behaviour, even though there are plenty of triggering incidents in the world we live in, but I will make sure this practitioner's behaviour is reported to relevant bodies, which I guess is an example of channelling one's anger appropriately. But expressing anger in the way he did in a professional context is in my view totally inappropriate. Yet, as a patient, it is terribly important to feel safe enough to express one's anger, even when this anger is not rational, and yet, people are terrorised that if they do, they will be punished and ostracised such as in the case above. Clearly 'good patients' never complain!
Thinking about it, having a conversation about anger is quite a central premise in my clinical practice. It is said that depression is anger and rage turned inwards and from my clinical experience, I would very much agree with it. As I offer a bi-lingual practice in English and in Greek, and effectively a rather multicultural practice representative of the cultural diversity in London, I find that there is a clear cultural split and polarisation in relation to anger in particular. In the Greek context (and also in other Mediterranean and East European contexts) anger is a feeling one may have too much of. Many of my patients from the above cultural contexts have been traumatised by the constant conflict between their parents and by long term high tension and toxicity in their family life. Family life of course does generate tension, but parents who take it for granted that they can take it out on their children or their partners are ultimately harmful. On the other hand, in the Anglo-Saxon context, many patients present with an inability to express anger and the toxic effects of having to constantly repress it, for what may feel like a lifetime. Anger, like sexuality is ultimately a drive, and as such, it needs to find an appropriate avenue for expression. It is in my observations, a core part of clinical work to help people find a more authentic way of being in the world which entails finding a way to express a number of feelings including anger.
I have no problem with feeling and expressing my own anger in certain contexts, yet in others, I will allow myself to feel it, but will be very careful not to show it. One such occasion is in clinical work, though there are exceptions of course. The reason is that I don't consider the therapy relationship an equal one. Though there can be plenty of occasions, where a therapist may be provoked into anger, sometimes quite deliberately, I think expressing it directly takes away from the space a patient needs for their own feelings and can also be intimidating, as we have to accept that being in therapy is a position of vulnerability. So, for example, if a patient was late for an appointment and they complained that they did not receive a zoom link from me and that this has affected their experience, I would apologise first, even if I was certain I had sent the link, and then notice, explore and validate their feelings towards me, even if those were anger and mistrust. Some analytic therapists claim that to apologise is to deflect a patient's anger, but I personally think that this is potentially code for getting into a power struggle. To apologise and to accept that it is normal that vulnerability generates anger in those who have found themselves in such a position one too many times, is not deflecting anger, it is allowing for a more nurturing and non-toxic relationship where anger can be expressed safely.


The rate of existing-home sales fell 6.6 percent in August compared to August 2005 but rose 1.4 percent in the first eight months of the year compared to the same period in 2005, the Canadian Real Estate Association reported.Year-to-date sales activity reached the highest level on record in Calgary, Edmonton, Saskatoon, Winnipeg, Ottawa and Montreal, among other markets, the association reported.
According to seasonally adjusted MLS data, there were 47,117 new residential listings in August — nearly the highest level in about 15 years. "While additional listings are helping many local markets to become more balanced, listings remain in short supply in a number of markets in western Canada," according to the report.
The MLS residential average price in Canada's major markets was about $261,434 (in current U.S. dollars) in August 2006, an 11.6 percent rise from August 2005 levels. Year-over-year price increases have remained in the double-digits for each of the first eight months of this year, the association announced.
Average price also set new monthly records in Vancouver and Edmonton.
The Canadian Real Estate Association represents about 86,000 Realtors working through 99 real estate boards, 10 provincial associations and one territorial association.

Cambridge Audio 500 review | What Hi-Fi?
Not all HDMI cables are the same, proclaims the blurb on the new 1.5m-long 500-series HDMI from Cambridge Audio.
Yet search the web, and you'll find many forum posters disagreeing, arguing that one HDMI is much the same as any other, and that by implication, high-end leads are a waste of cash.
Us? All we can go on is the evidence of our eyes and ears, and the Cambridge Audio's picture and sound performance is so obviously superior to a free (or very cheap) HDMI that we find it hard to believe you could fail to notice the difference.
Edges are sharper, colours appear more rich, black areas of the screen are denser and more consistent – even motion seems more convincing.
Sound is better too, with clearer definition in the surrounds and more punch. Only one thing stands between the 500-series and five stars: the Chord Company SuperShield is better, and costs only £10 more.

Michigan's 21 Million Gallon Frack Job: A National Record?
Feb. 05, 2013 04:51PM EST Energy
Ban Michigan Fracking
The destruction of the world's fresh water due to fracking is at the uppermost of our minds, as we live and drink the water in the Great Lakes state. How much water is being used for Michigan's frack industry is now proven to be obscenely underestimated. Michigan may have set a national record for allowing Encana Oil & Gas USA to frack a natural gas well with more than 21 million gallons of water.
A second nearby well is set to be fracked with more than 16 million gallons, according to a permit granted Encana late last year by Michigan regulators.
These big numbers are a big surprise. Most industry and government claims of water usage go by Marcellus shale figures, but here in Michigan, the frackers are using more water than perhaps anywhere else in the nation.
According to Michigan regulators (Department of Environmental Quality) "up to 5,000,000 gallons or more."
According to industry's public relations front group, Energy In Depth "as much as 5 million gallons."
According to the industry group website, FracFocus, by Ground Water Protection Council and Interstate Oil and Gas Compact Commission states it takes (referring to the Marcellus shale in the eastern U.S.) "5 million gallons of water per well."
The truth is now coming out
FracFocus says the first well, State Excelsior 3-25 HD1, was fracked on Oct. 30, and Encana used 21,112,194 gallons of water. Combined with two other horizontal wells on the same pad, FracFocus says more than 42 million gallons went permanently downhole. The Excelsior pad (named after the township) is on Sunset Trail between Kalkaska and Grayling in the Mackinaw State Forest in Kalkaska County.
Some of the 42 million gallons of fresh water being poured into the drilling pit at the State Excelsior frack well can be seen in this video by Respect My Planet:
A permit that was issued Nov. 30, for Encana's well State Roscommon 1-7 HD1, states the company intends to frack with 400,000 barrels. That equals 16,800,000 gallons. The company's application adds that the wellpad is sized to accommodate "up to six or 8 HD's" (horizontal drills). If there are eight horizontal drills on the pad, the total water usage will be more than 100 million gallons. The pad is in the Roscommon State Forest, south of Houghton Lake.
The per well figures are three and four times what the industry and regulators have been saying. And it cannot be compared to the water used by farmers. Irrigation water returns to the aquifer and the hydrologic cycle. Water used for fracking is lost forever deep in the frack wells and disposal injection wells.
Why is the gas industry allowed to suck up so much water? Industry's latest answer is that fracking is ok because burning natural gas synthesizes new water in the atmosphere, chemically, where it didn't exist before. Eventually the new water rains to earth. If enough gas is burned from a well, the water created can actually surpass the amount of water destroyed in the fracking process.
This is a diversionary tactic to try to ignore the fact that millions of gallons of water are being destroyed forever, leaving our landscape full of frack wells and injection wells filled with toxic and carcinogenic frack wastes–water permanently diverted from the Great Lakes and now buried in the ground … in literally bottomless pits.
The industry's newest gimmick is only telling half the story about the chemistry and, there's a catch: Little of the rain will fall in Michigan. Atmospheric winds whirl it around the world. It can fall anywhere, usually on places with wet climates or in the oceans. In addition to creating H2O, burning methane creates CO2, a greenhouse gas that accelerates climate change.
Michigan is in a drought. Great Lakes levels are at near-record lows. Water is limited. Gas extracted here—or anywhere—will bring scant amounts of it to rain in our state.
There's a second catch: Inevitably some wells are duds. Duds don't produce enough gas to generate enough water to equal the amount lost during fracking.
Exponentially more water threatened by future wells
Encana's threat to Michigan is profound. Encana has identified 1,700 potential Collingwood well locations in Michigan. Each location may host more than one frack well. Encana holds oil and gas leases on 430,000 net acres in the state. Recent pipeline applications say it anticipates drilling a significant number of wells in Kalkaska and Crawford Counties over the next several years.
It's painful to do the math on how much water this will destroy. If all 1,700 Encana well locations used 21.1 million gallons of water, 35.8 billion gallons of water would be used for Encana's wells alone, producing even greater amounts of frack wastes, when adding in the amounts of chemicals, additives and silica sand in the injectate. And if the Roscommon and Excelsior wells are the model for the industry, it is likely there will be more than one frack well on each of the 1,700 frack well locations, more than doubling or tripling the water and wastewater estimates.
Since learning of the high water use figures at the Excelsior and Roscommon wells, Ban Michigan Fracking has asked industry and environmental sources around the country to see if anyone has heard of any larger well anywhere. So far, no larger well has been identified. We will keep readers posted.
Michigan will become a toxic wasteland of frack wastes that will be unrecoverable and unfixable
The burgeoning problem resulting from all this fracking and unconventional shale gas drilling is where to put all the toxic wastes directly made by the process? Already Ohio is the recipient of the Pennsylvania frack industry's toxic wastewater, in addition to its own, overwhelming the injection wells there. Michigan, with more than 1,000 injection wells, will quickly become a toxic wasteland, taking in frack wastes from Michigan and other locations.
Is this the kind of Michigan where healthy crops can be raised, where industries like wineries and breweries can produce uncontaminated products? Where pure Michigan groundwater can continue to sustain us?
Sign the petition today, telling President Obama to enact an immediate fracking moratorium:

The Dictator (2012)
Sacha Baron Cohen as General Aladeen
Anna Faris as Zoey
Megan Fox as Megan Fox
Jason Mantzoukas as Nuclear Nadal
Ben Kingsley as Tahir
John C. Reilly as Clayton
Alec Berg
Rated R strong crude and sexual content, brief male nudity, language and some violent images
"The Dictator" is funny, in addition to being obscene, disgusting, scatological, vulgar, crude and so on. Having seen Sacha Baron Cohen promoting it on countless talk shows, I feared the movie would feel like deja vu. But no. He establishes a claim to be the best comic filmmaker now working. And in a speech about dictatorships, he practices merciless political satire.
Compared to the gleeful transgressions of "Borat" and "Bruno," this is Cohen's most conventional film. It has a plot, it has a romance, it sticks to the story. Not that it's mainstream, although judging by the laughter of a preview audience, who knows where the stream is anymore? He also wisely gets in, gets his laughs, and quits. The movie, like Bruno," falls short of 90 minutes, in an era where too many comedies run on relentlessly.
Cohen plays General Admiral Aladeen of the North African nation of Wadiya, which seems superimposed upon parts of Egypt and Sudan and is a spitting distance from Saudi Arabia. Here he occupies a huge palace, used for addressing admiring throngs of his worshippers and having sex not only with Megan Fox, but also, judging by his wall of post-coital Polaroids, Kim Kardashian, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Oprah. Megan Fox has a great cameo, showing up for sex but drawing the line at an all-night cuddle.
Aladeen's premier is Tahir (Ben Kingsley), rightful heir to the throne, who is plotting to overthrow him. After an assassination fails, Tahir encourages Aladeen to address the United Nations, where he hopes another assassination will succeed. After being de-bearded by a security man (John C. Reilly), Aladeen finds himself wandering the streets of Manhattan while being impersonated in public by a body double.
He finds his way into an extreme left-wing health food store run by Zoey (Anna Faris), and despite the radical difference in their beliefs the General Admiral finds himself falling for her. That sets up satire in general about feminists, vegetarians and immigrant-huggers. Then Aladeen wanders into Manhattan's "Little Waadeya" neighborhood, where a Wadiyan restaurant seems filled with people he thought he'd executed.
Although the movie very casually follows the progress of the romance and the assassination scheme, Cohen and the director, Larry Charles, are about as dedicated to plot as the Marx Brothers; the movie's spiritual ancestor is "Duck Soup" and Groucho's Freedonian dictator Rufus T. Firefly. There is also a taste of Buster Keaton's physical humor in a scene where Aladeen attempts to slide on a cable high above the street into the upper floor of a hotel.
Cohen's attack on the material is free-wheeling, his attitude is anarchist, and he's more good-humored than in "Borat" and "Bruno." I hope he isn't entertaining any ambitions to become beloved and popular. I expected this to be the most offensive of the three titles, and while you can't say it isn't offensive (especially in scenes involving a dead civil rights leader's severed head), it's somehow… nicer, maybe you could say.
Footnote: I want to know more about the Newcastle Hotel in New York. I don't believe there is one. It provides the fodder for a running gag about product placement that plugs the name again and again and again.

Mr Hussein said this is a blow to the north eastern region which has been facing problems in the education sector.
They told TSC to stop wrangles with the Ministry of Education and open dialogue with stakeholders.
The Kenya National Qualifications Authority has proposed lowering of entry grades for teacher training colleges.
Teachers from north eastern Kenya have expressed their displeasure at the rejection by the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) of the proposal to lower the entry grade to teacher training colleges, especially for marginalised counties.
Speaking at Garissa Hotel, Kenya National Union of Teachers (Knut) representatives drawn from the counties of Garissa, Wajir and Mandera told TSC to stop wrangles with the Ministry of Education and open dialogue with stakeholders on numerous issues affecting them.
Mr Ali Abdi Hussein, the assistant national treasury of the teachers' union accuses TSC of coming up with policies he claimed have been antagonising teachers. This, he said, is done without any consultations.
He termed as onslaught on education the recent rejection by TSC of the proposal to lower the entry grade for teacher training colleges which was also supported by Attorney-General Kihara Kariuki.
Mr Hussein said this is a blow to the north eastern region which has been facing problems in the education sector especially due to insecurity.
"We demand that the employer stops unnecessary wrangles with the stakeholders and take real issues through consultations. In the recent past, colleges have failed to attract trainees due to harassment and frustration by the employer," he claimed.
"As Knut leadership from this region, we feel that the recent statement by the Teachers Service Commission is an attack on education. We want President Uhuru to intervene immediately" he added.
The Kenya National Qualifications Authority (KNQA) has proposed lowering of entry grades for teacher training colleges.
The authority had indicated that students seeking to study for diploma in education should have a C plain or C- in their Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE), exam results, down from C+.
KNQA also proposed that those seeking to study for a certificate in education need to have a D+, down from a C plain.
On his part Garissa County's Knut Secretary Abdirizack Hussein accused TSC of dishonesty, saying the process of lowering the grade started five months ago and the teacher's employer ought to have raised their concerns before it was gazetted.
"This is not something the ministry just came up with suddenly. The process has been going on from one stage to another. TSC should have raised any concerns then not after some students have been admitted," he told journalists.
The silent war is threatening the education sector with each party trying to exert its authority.


Sweet pears and delicate spinach are a natural pairing for the slight gaminess of lamb in this fresh salad that heralds the arrival of spring in one delicious bowl.
1. In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, shallot, and 3 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper and set aside.
2. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high. Season lamb chops with salt and pepper and cook until medium-rare, 10 minutes, flipping once. Transfer to a work surface and loosely tent with foil. Let rest 5 minutes, then cut away from bone and thinly slice.
3. In a large bowl, toss together spinach and pears. Divide among four plates, top with lamb, and drizzle with dressing.
You can always substitute bone-in pork chops for the lamb in this dish.
This salad has become one of my favorite fall salads. It is so healthy and easy to make. Love it.

Q: Swift 4 - Adding UITapGestureRecognizer to a subview image - the method is not called I have the following UITapGestureRecognizer setup, but the method is not called?
Note: that the UITapGestureRecognizer is added to a subview item.
Also, it works when adding the UIGestureRecognizerDelegate in SUStepView itself - only problem is that I need it in the container.
class StepViewContainer: NSObject, UIGestureRecognizerDelegate {
var view: SUStepView?

    @objc func tapAction(recognizer: UITapGestureRecognizer) {

    }

    override init(){
        super.init()
        // View
        self.view = Bundle.main.loadNibNamed("SignupV3Views", owner: self, options: nil)![0] as? SUStepView

        let mytapGestureRecognizer = UITapGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(tapAction))
        mytapGestureRecognizer.numberOfTapsRequired = 1
        self.view?.imageView.addGestureRecognizer(mytapGestureRecognizer)
    }
}

The view in StepViewContainer:
class SUStepView: UIView {
@IBOutlet weak var imageView: UIImageView!

    @objc public func nextStepTap(sender: UITapGestureRecognizer) {
    }

    override func awakeFromNib() {
        let tapGestureRecognizer = UITapGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(nextStepTap))
        tapGestureRecognizer.numberOfTapsRequired = 1
        self.imageView.addGestureRecognizer(tapGestureRecognizer)

        self.imageView.isUserInteractionEnabled = true
        self.imageView.layer.masksToBounds = true
        self.imageView.layer.cornerRadius = self.imageView.frame.size.width / 2
        self.imageView.clipsToBounds = true

}

A: Swift 4 Code :
TapGesture :
 tapGesture = UITapGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(ViewController.myviewTapped(_:)))
 tapGesture.numberOfTapsRequired = 1
 tapGesture.numberOfTouchesRequired = 1

ImageView Tap :
    self.imageView = UIImageView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: self.view.frame.size.width/2.0, height: self.view.frame.size.height/2.0))
    self.imageView.isUserInteractionEnabled = true
    self.imageView.backgroundColor = UIColor.red
    self.imageView.layer.masksToBounds = true
    self.imageView.layer.cornerRadius = self.imageView.frame.size.width / 2
    self.imageView.clipsToBounds = true
    self.imageView.isUserInteractionEnabled = true
    self.imageView.addGestureRecognizer(tapGesture)
    self.view.addSubview(self.imageView)

Call On Tap
@objc func myviewTapped(_ sender: UITapGestureRecognizer) {
    if self.imageView.backgroundColor == UIColor.yellow {
        self.imageView.backgroundColor = UIColor.green
    }else{
        self.imageView.backgroundColor = UIColor.yellow
    }
}

A: try this.
let mytapGestureRecognizer = UITapGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(myTapAction))
mytapGestureRecognizer.numberOfTapsRequired = 1
self.imageView.addGestureRecognizer(mytapGestureRecognizer)

method.
@objc func myTapAction(recognizer: UITapGestureRecognizer) {
}

A: It is indeed possible with CSS only but you have a "setup/layout" that won't allow it due to the nesting your are using.
There is no CSS selector that allows you to move OUT of the
 elements and find the other
 elements INSIDE the seconds
.
Additionally the + operator in CSS won't work here either as it only looks for directly adjacent elements (if I'm not mistaken! Please verify for yourself!).
The Operator you are looking for is the "tilde" operator ~.
I've provided a working example that might explain better what I mean:

A: Update
In your case with your HTML structure you cant archive this with pur CSS. You have to use Javascript. Take a look of this small working example. I refactor your code only a little bit. But you will see how it works and you can adjusting for your wishes.

 Info


In addition to the animated movies with a variety of anthropomorphics, animals and anthropomorphic animals coming out some time this year, there are four major live action releases this year that furries may want to mark on their calendar: Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, Guardians of the Galaxy, The Hobbit: There and Back Again and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
Dates listed are for North American releases. Furries in other areas of the world may have to wait a bit longer, but all four are big blockbuster type movies counting on worldwide revenue; be patient and they'll reach you eventually.
The first of the four movies spotlighted doesn't come out until July 11, and it is the sequel to the surprise hit of 2011, Rise of the Planet of the Apes. This sequel, directed by Matt Reeves after Rise director Rupert Wyatt left the project, takes place approximately fifteen years after the events of Rise. Caesar, played via motion capture by Andy Serkis, leads the apes, who come in contact with one of the last surviving groups of humans left on the planet. These two groups try to live together peacefully, but don't.
Also stars Gary Oldman, Keri Russell and Judy Greer as Cornelia.
August features two furry live action movies, with Marvel Studios' Guardians of the Galaxy coming first on August 1. Part of the "Marvel Cinematic Universe," this represents a bizarre side chapter for the franchise, as the titular Guardians could most favorably be described as "cult" comic book characters. Even more bizarre is the choice of James Gunn as screenwriter and director, whose work on horror/comedy Slither and dark superhero comedy Super could also be described favorably as cult. The furry factor comes from team member Rocket Raccoon, voiced by two time Academy Award nominated actor Bradley Cooper.
Also stars Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana and Vin Diesel as Groot.
The second furry comic book adaptation of the month, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles hits theaters one week after Guardians of the Galaxy on August 8. The movie, directed by Jonathan Liebesman, has been in development hell since forever; it ignores the four previous TMNT movies and features its own continuity. We know for sure Leonardo (Pete Ploszek), Raphael (Alan Ritchson), Donatello (Jeremy Howard) and Michelangelo (Noel Fisher) are ninja turtles, probably teenaged, though the "mutant" thing has been up in the air ever since producer Michael Bay announced prematurely they were actually aliens this time. That version of the story seems to have thankfully gone away.
Also stars Megan Fox, William Fichtner and Danny Woodburn as Splinter.
Last year's The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug by director Peter Jackson will probably go down as the furriest of the three movies in this prequel trilogy to another well-beloved cinematic trilogy, which is historically always a good thing. But the titular dragon Smaug was still flying around at the end of that movie, and werebear Beorn, though appearing briefly in The Desolation of Smaug, should make a reappearance in the climactic battle of this film on December 17, if the book is anything to go on. So, there are those two things. Hopefully Bilbo Baggins, played wonderfully by Martin Freeman, will get a bit more screen time in his own movie this go around. Which he won't, if the book is anything to go on.
Also stars Richard Armitage, Orlando Bloom and Benedict Cumberbatch as Smaug.
Please note that I left off the upcoming Muppet movie for a reason; not because it isn't worth furries' attention and not because I'm not excited for it (I'd say I'm more excited for it than two movies featured here), but since it comes out next month, I was fairly certain we were all very aware of it anyway.
But seriously, you're mistaken to assume I spend any time watching promos or keeping abreast of current cinema outside of Flayrah.
I actually preferred the movie's original title, which was The Muppets: Again.
I can't even for the life of me remember what the subtitle for the movie is now; something generic and I don't care, but the trailers were funny.
Sources suggest it's Muppets Most Wanted, though I guess that's technically not a sub-title.
Yes, I have access to Google, too.
Totally excited for Guardians Of The Galaxy!!
