CONSUMER REPORT – Winter 2008/9
The Association of European Airlines has released data on the baggage-delivery and punctuality performance of its members for Winter 2008/9 (November-March).
28 AEA member airlines contributed punctuality data, and 26 baggage data, to the data collection which is unique in the aviation sector as a voluntary consumer-information exercise.
In all three key areas of measurement – long and short haul punctuality and overall baggage delivery, the figures show significant improvement over the same period in 2007/8.
The number of missing bags, i.e. not available for collection on arrival, was 13.0 per 1000 passengers, compared to 15.5 for the previous Winter. AEA points out that, on average, 85% of delayed bags are delivered to the customer within 48 hours.
A similarly improving trend in punctuality was also noted. On short-haul operations, 83.2% of flights departed within 15 minutes of schedule, compared with 79.6% a year earlier. On long haul services the figure was 70.6%, up from 66.7%. As is usual, the number of flights cancelled was extremely low: 1.9% for short haul and 0.7% for long haul.
The improvements are clearly influenced by the business climate: during these five months the airlines covered by the Consumer Report carried 6% fewer passengers and operated 9% fewer flights.
The report is based upon a voluntary commitment by the members of the Association to provide consumer information according to a set of commonly defined standards. Any similar statistics reported by airlines who are not part of the AEA Consumer Report should not, under any circumstances, be construed as representing a fair comparison with the figures presented herein. AEA cannot guarantee the accuracy of such figures and indeed has reason to believe that they may represent entirely different performance criteria.

Ever since the city of St. Louis' airport authority wiped out much of Kinloch, the remaining residents have been hoping for a miracle to save the town. Others have been trying to turn a fast buck.
By C.D. Stelzer on Wed, May 10, 2000 at 4:00 am
People used to live here. Most came up from Mississippi, Arkansas and Tennessee. The town grew piecemeal, looking like so many nameless places down South. But Kinloch had a name, and it had another distinction -- people here owned their own homes.
There is nothing nostalgic about dirt roads, shotgun shacks and outdoor privies. Early residents migrated north to work in factories, trading one hardscrabble existence for another. They left poverty and racism -- and poverty and racism greeted them. Yet they endured, and successive generations built and improved a community that lasted for the better part of a century. Tens of thousands of people have called Kinloch home.
"It was a beautiful community," says 64-year-old Helen R. Fryer Jones, who moved to Kinloch from Laurel, Miss., as a child. "We had drugstores, we had furniture stores, we had bakeries, we had a high school and a grade school. We had all these things. You didn't have to lock your doors, because your neighbors watched out for your home, your children. It was like one big lovely family. We took care of each other. That's what this town is built up on -- Southern people that wanted their own. They got here, and they got their own."
Much of that city is gone now. Up and down Monroe and Scudder avenues, over on McGuire and McHenry, too, the residences have disappeared. Part of the abandoned area looks more like a park than a ghost town. The grass is cut, and ornamental trees still grow where backyards used to be. Just the people and the dwellings are missing.
The view from Freiling Avenue, one block west of Martin Luther King Boulevard, is far less bucolic. A local entrepreneur has opened an unofficial junkyard in the middle of the street. A minivan is tipped over on its side, and other derelict vehicles haphazardly line the narrow thoroughfare. Debris and broken glass are everywhere.
This empty part of southwest Kinloch, where houses once stood and families lived, has been owned by the city of St. Louis for nearly 20 years. The 175 acres of prime real estate, near the junction of interstates 70 and 170, was acquired by the St. Louis Airport Authority, ostensibly for noise mitigation, beginning in 1982. The Kinloch buyout cost upwards of $50 million, according to an airport spokesman, with most of the funds coming from the Federal Aviation Administration. But residents who sold their homes received only a fraction of this largesse, says former Kinloch City Attorney Richard Wier. The rest of the money presumably went for real-estate consultants, administrative costs and other related expenses.
"I know what the average price of the homes were selling for, and, in Kinloch, it was under $25,000 a house," Wier says. "They bought out land in Kinloch, partially because Kinloch was cheap and because the folks in there were poor black folks."
Half of the residents of Kinloch reported in the last census that they had an annual income of less than $10,000. For the residents and property owners who did not sell, the buyout progressed like a slow, invasive cancer. About 500 parcels are still in private hands, but many of those are vacant lots. Much of the remaining half of the city is now littered with the burned-out hulks of abandoned buildings. On lot after rubbish-filled lot, yellow signs are nailed to any available surface, identifying the Airport Authority as the owner.
But the squalor belies the true value of the land. Kinloch's proximity to the airport and the interstate makes its an ideal location for commercial and industrial development. With its population vastly decreased -- perhaps 1,000 people live there now -- and its tax base eroded, Kinloch's very survival depends on redevelopment of the land taken by St. Louis. That was something Kinloch and St. Louis recognized in the early 1980s, when the buyout began, but that is no longer the case.
Today, leaders of the area's oldest all-black city accuse St. Louis of turning its back on their plight. After negotiations with the Airport Authority failed earlier this year, Kinloch filed a lawsuit to regain control of the buyout property. The suit, filed in St. Louis County Circuit Court, alleges that St. Louis willfully engaged in the destruction of the town by reneging on earlier commitments to convey the land to Kinloch. The suit specifically cites a 1982 St. Louis ordinance that vowed cooperation with Kinloch's plans to regain and develop the land. The suit accuses St. Louis of misrepresenting the goals of the buyout to the FAA -- that the real reason for the land acquisition wasn't to address the noise problems caused by Lambert but, rather, to force the disincorporation of Kinloch and allow St. Louis to profit from the sale of the land to developers.
"I think what offends me the most is that St. Louis apparently believes that it has the right and the authority to decide which communities surrounding the airport survive and which don't survive," says Al Johnson, Kinloch's current city attorney. "I find it offensive and the height of arrogance that they come out here and criticize our city, essentially telling us, 'Kinloch, we don't think you can govern yourself -- so we're going to buy you out, and we're going to take control of your land.'" St. Louis Mayor Clarence Harmon refuses to comment on Kinloch's plight, saying that it is the subject of current litigation.
Mike Donatt, an airport spokesman, also declines to comment on why the city has not conveyed the land back to Kinloch, because, he, too, says that it is the subject of a pending lawsuit. "Over the last 18 years, hundreds of families in communities, including Kinloch, have chosen to be bought out under the noise program," Donatt says. "They have chosen to move elsewhere. It was not a situation of the city of St. Louis and Lambert Airport dictating where people move. The noise buyout is all in accordance with a federally approved program. People can allege anything they want in a lawsuit -- that's why they litigate."
Another St. Louis city official, speaking on background, says there have been no broken promises; they say that Kinloch homeowners willingly sold their properties; they say St. Louis is being blamed for Kinloch's internal problems and legacy of poor leadership. In addition, the city blames at least part of the current flap on meddling by Bridgeton, the St. Louis County municipality that has long opposed the airport-expansion program and supported Kinloch's fight against the city.
Regardless of who is to blame, it's safe to say that St. Louis has spent a fortune to acquire the Kinloch property, and Kinloch has borne the cost of the ensuing social disintegration. Meanwhile, investors who have sought to capitalize on these deplorable circumstances have lost millions of dollars at the hands of unscrupulous local businessmen.
The desolation and grinding poverty of Kinloch weren't on the agenda when a group of worried investors gathered on Dec. 8, 1998, at Magna Bank in Creve Coeur. Instead, two prominent and connected St. Louis businessmen -- dentist Kenneth S. Powell and nightclub owner Ronald L. Roberts -- sought to reassure an audience of two dozen people that plans for a major land deal in which they had invested, one that would garner huge profits, were still on track. One investor says Powell, who spoke reassuringly for the better part of an hour, conceded that the return of some investors' money had created a cash shortage. He alluded vaguely to some political stumbling block but offered few, if any, details about the problem. Powell's sales pitch was enough to convince the leader of one investment group to ante up another $125,000.
Since 1996, Powell and Roberts had represented themselves as principal players in a development deal involving land in Kinloch. They made an unusual pair -- Powell, 52, professional and conservative in demeanor; Roberts, 40, flashy, a bit of a rogue. Wier, the former Kinloch attorney, recalls meeting Roberts for the first time last year: "He comes in, he's wearing a green suit, black-and-white spectator shoes with purple socks. If you wanted to look like a two-bit hoodlum, you couldn't have dressed better." How Powell and Roberts came to be partners is unclear, but together they attracted millions of dollars from investors, who were lured by promises of fantastic returns.
That investment scheme began to unravel last summer, when the Missouri secretary of state's office ordered them to stop selling unregistered securities to investors. Last month, Powell, Roberts and a third businessman, Mark E. Williams, were named in a 32-count federal indictment accusing them of mail and wire fraud, money-laundering and interstate transportation of property obtained through fraud. Williams, who is a partner with Roberts in a nightclub at 7555 Olive Blvd. called Another Nite, is alleged to have played the role of bagman, laundering money for Roberts by withdrawing it from the Alton Belle Casino after Roberts had deposited it there. All three defendants have pleaded not guilty to the charges.
The indictment says Powell and Roberts bilked investors from Missouri, Illinois and other states of an estimated $12 million. Victims ranged from senior citizens to professional athletes. The scores of investors identified in the indictment includes a local landfill operator, a car dealer, mortgage brokers and a building contractor. All of these investors, and perhaps others unknown, were promised an exorbitant return on their money. One St. Louis pawnshop owner was told he'd realize $2 million in return for a $40,000 investment. An elderly investor from Cicero, Ill., was promised $500,000 for an investment of $28,000. Former New Orleans Saints halfback Vaughn Dunbar was promised $5 million-$6 million within 72 hours for putting up $260,000.
How those investors became convinced a piece of Kinloch could fetch such a profit is uncertain. Roberts and Powell, according to the indictment, claimed they controlled 400-500 tracts of land in Kinloch but that they needed additional funds to buy the remaining property. Once those sales closed, Powell and Roberts said, they would sell the land to a waiting developer. At one point, the buyer was to be St. Louis-based Stifel Nicolaus & Co. The indictment also alleges that Roberts and Powell told investors that they were hammering out a sales agreement with Steffen Group Inc., a Phoenix-based developer -- a deal that would net an incredible $920 million.
The two partners met with investors at a mortgage company in Creve Coeur and conferred with others at a Clayton attorney's office. They met at the Sheraton Plaza Hotel on New Year's Eve 1998. They wined and dined prospects at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse and J.P. Fields restaurant. They kept in touch with their deep-pocketed investors by telephone. They wrote them letters. And they inevitably asked for more money. When the deal never closed, Roberts and Powell always had an explanation: They needed to get yet another government agency's approval; they needed to pay off an unexpected tax obligation; an obstinate landowner was holding out for more money.
To gain the trust of jittery investors, Roberts and Powell offered to turn over land deeds as security. They assured investors that their money had been placed in escrow accounts. They promised to reward patient investors with luxury cars. Some investors were shown a St. Louis County property-tax receipt that had been altered to show that the partners had paid more than $816,000 in taxes on their Kinloch properties. The actual tax bill, according to the federal indictment, was a little over $16,000.
To keep things quiet, Powell and Roberts told investors they were bound by a confidentiality agreement and also advised them, if asked, to tell law-enforcement officials and regulators that the funds they handed over were unrestricted loans rather than investments. They leaned on others to help lure new investors. In St. Louis, two men -- Mark Johnson of Creative Mortgage Concepts in Creve Coeur and Peter Schaefering of Magna Bank -- directed investors to Powell and Roberts. Both became inextricably tangled in the scheme and were named in the cease-and-desist order issued by the Missouri secretary of state's office last summer.
Powell and Roberts opened bank accounts at Mercantile (now Firstar), Allegiant and Royal banks. Investors were asked to make payments using cashier's checks issued by these banks; Roberts then deposited the checks at the Alton Belle and Williams later withdrew the cash. In this way, the money could be written off as gambling income.
As the money poured in, Roberts began acquiring the accouterments of wealth, according to the indictment.
In August 1998, for instance, he plunked down $57,000 for a 1998 Lexus LX470. A year later, he spent more than $65,000 for a 1999 Jaguar XK8. When FBI agents arrested him last month at his home in Florissant, they seized $300,000 in cash from the trunk of his silver Porsche Boxster, according to published reports. Nearly two dozen other expensive vehicles were seized by federal authorities from the three defendants, according to the indictment.
As the months turned into years, the investors began to express their doubts. Lawsuits were filed. One method Roberts and Powell allegedly devised to alleviate this problem was to simply pay off the disgruntled party with new investors' dollars -- robbing Peter to pay Paul. This constant juggling act required finesse and more than a little moxie, and eventually it became impossible to keep word of the scheme from leaking out. Acting on a tip from its Illinois counterpart, the Missouri secretary of state's office began to investigate last year.
Raymond Lahner, a 61-year-old investor from Cicero, wonders why state and federal law-enforcement authorities took so long to act. The indictment lists Lahner's losses at more than $57,000, but he says he made several investments totaling $200,000.
"It sounded like a good deal, but it just never ended," says Lahner. "They really didn't say what it (the money) was to be used for. I thought it was for buying up property by the airport. They were supposed to have a contract with buyers. They always had some kind of excuse. They always needed money for something -- for taxes or to buy property, or somebody wanted their money back. So we kept giving them more money. There was always a snag; they could never close."
Lahner, who has never been to Kinloch, says the money he invested came from an inheritance. He says he learned of the opportunity through Ismael Covarrubias, the brother of Lahner's son-in-law. St. Louis County property records show that Covarrubias owns parcels in Kinloch on Warwick Street and Granberry Drive, near properties controlled by Roberts and Powell. Covarrubias, who lives in the Chicago area, could not be reached for comment.
Lahner knows Anthony Pope, another investor, because the accountant helped out with his estate planning, he says. Pope, acting as an agent for many Chicago-area investors, gave Roberts and Powell two installments in 1999 worth a total of $1.1 million, according to the indictment. That amount represents the largest single investment in the scheme. County property-tax records provide an Elmhurst, Ill., mailing address for one of Powell's investment companies. DuPage County, Ill., property records list Anthony Pope as the owner of the building where Powell's tax bills are sent. Pope could not be reached for comment.
Others aren't talking much either. Neither Powell nor his lawyer, Paul J. D'Agrosa, could be reached for comment. Richard Sindel, a defense lawyer who represents Roberts, says he's inclined to believe that the case may boil down to an elemental point in common law -- caveat emptor, or "buyer beware." "These people who were involved in this investment are very intelligent, capable individuals," Sindel says. "It's not like a bunch of senior citizens, where he's getting their last bits of money. These are land developers, real-estate developers, people who make their money by making good, solid investments."
Investors may have felt they were on solid ground because of Powell's long history with Kinloch. In 1990, the dentist formed Airport Industrial Redevelopment Corp. (AIRCO) with real-estate developer Mark A. Turken and Kinloch granted AIRCO exclusive rights to redevelop the 175 acres bulldozed by the Airport Authority.
Turken's business relationship with Powell dates back to the mid-1980s, when the two were investors in the Gateway Mall project in downtown St. Louis.
Under the agreement, Kinloch relinquished future control of the property to AIRCO. The plan hinged, of course, on St. Louis' agreeing to convey the land to Kinloch. A measure to authorize the land transfer languished in a St. Louis aldermanic committee for months, in part because it was tied to a proposal to expand the Kinloch buyout to include the entire city. Eventually the buyout was expanded, but the St. Louis Board of Aldermen declined to authorize the return of the 175 acres that Kinloch wanted. Kinloch sued in 1993, and St. Louis was forced to enter into a consent decree, but St. Louis has continued to refuse to transfer the land back on the grounds that it had been acquired with FAA funds and that the federal government required that the land be resold at fair market value.
The real reason for the delay in the conveyance of the land to Kinloch is a little more complicated. Under the terms of the consent decree, Kinloch and St. Louis were supposed to negotiate a sales price, which likely would be significantly below the current commercial value of the property. On the basis of his talks with developers, Wier, the former city attorney, estimates the actual value of the Kinloch property at $100 million. "They got a problem," says Wier, "because federal law says if you buy out land with federal money and then the land is returned, as it would be in this case to Kinloch, the city of St. Louis has to return that money to the FAA. The city of St. Louis woke up and said, 'We're going to lose $100 million.' They don't want to do that, obviously. (So) they tap dance a lot about it."
In fact, Kinloch's lawsuit alleges an ulterior motive on the part of St. Louis, the disincorporation of Kinloch: "This will permit the City of St. Louis to sell the property to private development concerns at a substantial profit to the City of St. Louis."
Kinloch's efforts were further hampered in May 1990 when attorney Charles L. Bussey Jr. was convicted of federal income-tax evasion. Bussey had been instrumental in bringing Turken and Powell together, according to Wier. Moreover, according to a news report from the time, the AIRCO deal was orchestrated while Joseph Williamson, a lawyer from Bussey's firm, was the acting Kinloch city attorney. Another attorney who once worked at Bussey's firm is former St. Louis Mayor Freeman Bosley Jr., who served from 1993-97. Bussey's partner Lloyd Jordan, who lobbied on behalf of the AIRCO deal, later served as a Bosley's chief of staff.
Alan Steinberg, an attorney who has represented Turken, Powell's AIRCO partner, also served as a lawyer for the city of Kinloch in the early 1990s, according to news accounts. As a Kinloch counsel, Steinberg tried unsuccessfully to negotiate the reacquisition of Kinloch properties from the Airport Authority. Steinberg refuses to comment about his representation of Turken and Kinloch.
Turken, who says he's retired, now dismisses the AIRCO agreement as inconsequential. "The only thing that we had was a development company that had a piece of paper that said if Kinloch ever acquired this ground from the Airport Authority, we would have the first right to develop it," he says. "It never happened. I haven't had anything to do with this in years."
Wier, however, recalls discussing the AIRCO agreement with both Turken and Roberts on separate occasions only a few months apart. Wier says he sat in on a meeting in late 1998 or early 1999 with Powell, Turken and then-Kinloch Mayor Bernard Turner. At the meeting, Powell and Turken expressed indignation about the revocation of their redevelopment rights, Wier says. The Kinloch Board of Aldermen passed an ordinance severing the city's agreement with AIRCO on Dec. 21, 1998.
After mayoral candidate Keith Conway defeated Turner last year, Wier continued as legal counsel to the city during the transition. The lawyer remembers another meeting about the AIRCO rights -- this time, with Powell and Roberts. At the meeting, which took place in April 1999, Mayor Conway reiterated the city's position that the AIRCO agreement was dead, Wier says. Just to make sure, the Kinloch Board of Aldermen passed a resolution in July 1999, declaring that AIRCO had breached its contract with the city by "assigning stock and interest in the corporation without first seeking the prior approval" of the city.
In short, two different Kinloch mayors renounced the AIRCO agreement on two separate occasions -- during the same period in which Powell and Roberts were allegedly bilking investors. The AIRCO agreement, however, isn't mentioned in the indictment, and Assistant U.S. Attorney Rosemary Meyers, the federal prosecutor, refuses to comment on any aspects of the case, other than what is outlined in the federal charges.
"We went back and looked at the deal," Wier says. "Mayor Turner and I and the city clerk spent hours going through whatever city records we had." A diligent search failed to turn up a scrap of evidence that the Kinloch Board of Aldermen had ever approved the AIRCO agreement, he says.
"We checked out other places, and we got word back from highly placed federal sources who said the FBI was very interested in Dr. Powell," Wier says. Kinloch officials were also advised by St. Louis Mayor Clarence Harmon's office and the Airport Authority to steer clear of Powell and his associates. Wier says Kinloch contacted both Turken and Powell about the matter and ultimately told them this: "It is our position that this contract is revoked. If you don't like it, you can sue us." He says, "That's where we left it. The last I heard of it was that in the summer of 1999, the FBI had talked to (airport director Col. Leonard) Griggs and his people," Wier says.
For his part, Turken says the agreement forged between AIRCO and Kinloch in 1990 had no connection whatsoever to the land scheme later hatched by Powell and Roberts. As for Roberts, Turken says: "I wouldn't know him if he bit me on the leg."
Faced with the airport buyout in the early '80s, Kinloch drew up an ambitious plan that called for redeveloping the former residential properties into an industrial park. The plan, christened Kinloch Tomorrow, called for the return of the 175 acres of buyout property to Kinloch and relocating displaced residents to the northeast portion of Kinloch. In 1982, the St. Louis Board of Aldermen formally approved the plan and pledged to cooperate with its tiny neighbor in implementing it.
Kinloch and St. Louis agreed to hire a planning agency, Fleming Corp., to draw up a 10-year, $21.4 million redevelopment plan that dovetailed with the airport's expansion plans. The plan called for the creation of a private redevelopment corporation that would include representatives of McDonnell Douglas (now Boeing), Emerson Electric, Anheuser-Busch and Mark Twain Bank. The companies, it was hoped, would work in concert with government agencies to create a new Kinloch from the shell of the old.
A survey by Fleming showed that more than half of the affected households in Kinloch wanted to stay in the community. To satisfy that demand, houses in the southwest part of the town were slated to be moved to the northeast section. Those that couldn't be moved would be replaced with new housing. The plan also called for the construction of a retail shopping area, new community center and city hall and retirement apartment complex.
A news photo from the era shows airport director Griggs with then-Kinloch Mayor Joseph L. Wells and other officials at a groundbreaking for new housing. They're standing around a sign that proclaims: "Kinloch Tomorrow, the Future is Now."
But as early as the spring of 1981, Griggs had expressed doubts about the project because of the Reagan administration's newly imposed emphasis on reducing federal spending. As a result, the anticipated private support for the plan never materialized, either. The Kinloch Housing Authority did build a number of retirement housing units with federal housing grants, but otherwise, only a handful of houses were ever built or relocated. The grand plans for a new city hall and community center also fell by the wayside.
Without the redevelopment plan, the buyout acted as a one-two punch in the municipal breadbasket, doubly hurting Kinloch by depopulating half of the city and simultaneously destroying a large part of its none-too-hefty real-estate-tax base. To longtime residents, it appeared that the very foundations of their community were being disassembled by outside forces.
Kinloch Tomorrow was an ambitious proposal that envisioned a bright future that never came. In many respects, the plan has been more of a prolonged nightmare than a dream deferred, mired in political conflicts, jurisdictional wrangling, land schemes and more than a few broken promises.
The cascade of problems that Kinloch faced were not all pouring in from the outside, however. After the buyout destroyed some of the best housing stock in the city, crime began to increase -- most notably, drug dealing and illegal dumping. The problem was compounded, during the first half of the 1990s, by a series of political scandals. City officials, including the police chief, were cited for various infractions. Money confiscated from drug and gambling raids disappeared from City Hall. Some aldermen were charged with and convicted of receiving stolen goods. And former Mayor Charlton Clay was convicted of extorting funds from a city contractor in 1993.
"The scheme was to take this town," says Helen Fryer Jones, who has watched Kinloch's slow decline. "This town is wanted. It's valuable property. You know, dollars will make a lot of folks change their minds and do things that they shouldn't do. That's why my town is like it is."
Virgil Jones, who is a plaintiff in Kinloch's current lawsuit against St. Louis, agrees. "When all that land got vacant, that's when everything hit the fan," he says. Jones is the last resident in his subdivision. Everybody else sold out to the airport. The 78-year-old World War II veteran bought his house in 1967 with the help of a GI loan. He has been watching the antics of Kinloch officials, the Airport Authority and real-estate pitchmen for decades.
"They would tell a lot of people lies," he says, referring to tactics used to induce property owners to sell. "They would tell them that their water would be cut off. That was a lie."
The money that the airport has offered Kinloch homeowners in the past hasn't been enough to buy affordable housing elsewhere, Jones says. "My sister, I know for a fact, she got $25,000. A majority of poor people out here -- they're taking advantage of (them)," Jones says. "A lot of them never saw a $100 bill in their life. See, they sucked them in. Money excites them. The dollars started flying around. Even some of the officials here in Kinloch started taking money under the table. There was a whole lot of stuff that went on. People's lives were involved. A lot of them wish they hadn't left. But they did leave. And it's too late."
These days, the number of churches in Kinloch rivals the number of houses. The congregations arrive for funerals and weddings and worship services. When the sermons and ceremonies are over and the benedictions are all said, the churchgoers get in their cars and leave the place they used to call home.
The residence next to Jones' is now vacant and will soon be razed. The pink house on Rev. Dr. Earl Miller Street will then stand alone. For more information, see sidebar, Raising the Stakes.

England tour to West Indies 2019 [Preview]
January 5, 2019 | No Comments
England is all set to tour West Indies in the month of January to play three Tests, five one-day internationals and three T20I games. The visitors will start their tour with three warm-up games. Skipper Joe Root will be hoping that his side can continue their good form in this series.
On the other hand, West Indies will be looking to start their home season on a good note when they take on England in three-match Test series. Skipper Jason Holder will be available for the series and should be clear the fitness Test ahead of big clash against England.
In the batting department, the home side will be depending on the likes of Kraigg Brathwaite, Shai Hope and Roston Chase to do the bulk of the scoring. Brathwaite had a torrid run with the bat and averaged 24.43 in Test cricket last season. West Indies will be hoping that opener can turn things around with the bat and do well against England in three-match Test series.
Shai Hope would also be looking to find form with the bat in red-ball cricket this season. Wicket-keeper batsman Shane Dowrich topped the batting charts for West Indies last season with 474 runs in 9 matches at an average of 36.46.
In 2018, Captain Jason Holder had a great year with the bat and scored 336 runs in 6 matches at an average of 37.33. The side has promising players like Shimron Hetmyer and Kieran Powell will be looking to do well in this big series against England.
In the bowling department, Shannon Gabriel proved to be premier bowler for West Indies over past couple of years. In 2018, he picked up 37 wickets in 8 matches at an average of 19.54.
Jason Holder also had a splendid year with the ball last season and picked up 33 wickets in 6 matches at an average of 12.39. Kemar Roach, Devendra Bishoo and Jomel Warrican are bowling options for the home side for the three-match Test series.
On the other hand, England will be confident of doing well in the Caribbean after completing a historic whitewash in Sri Lanka. Skipper Joe Root will be hoping that his side can continue their winning streak in this series.
Rory Burns and Keaton Jennings played well in the three-match series in Sri Lanka and have managed to retain their place in the XI. Jonny Bairstow and Ben Stokes are aggressive players in the middle-order for England.
Wicket-keeper batsman Ben Foakes proved his worth with the bat in Sri Lanka and scored 277 runs in 3 matches at an average of 69.25. Jos Buttler produced a remarkable run of form last year and scored heavily in red-ball cricket.
Last year, James Anderson was standout bowler for England in Test cricket. He picked up 43 wickets at an average of 22.51. The spin duo of Moeen Ali and Adil Rashid bowled well in Sri Lanka and picked up crucial wickets for the side.
Left-arm orthodox spinner Jack Leach proved to valuable addition to the XI. He bowled exceedingly well and picked up 18 wickets in Sri Lanka.
England will take on West Indies in a three-match Test series that will begin from 23rd January. The opening game of the series will be played at Kensington Oval, Bridgetown. The second and third game of the series will be played in North Sound and Gros Islet.

This autumn seems to be particularly rich in arts and culture in London and one exhibition that has particularly captured your author's attention is Turner and the Sea, which opens today at the National Maritime Museum. The exhibition presents the paintings of Turner and others over a number of themed rooms, including celebrated works such as The Fighting Temeraire, displayed alongside works more regularly seen in Greenwich like The Battle of Trafalgar from the Greenwich Hospital Collection.
My dad did architecture and engineering in first year uni, before deciding that his future lay in engineering. I asked him what he remembered from his one year foray into art history (1939) and one work stood out head and shoulders above the others - The Fighting Temeraire! Now at 91 he would still have gone to the National Maritime Museum, had it been possible.
Just bought tickets to this yesterday for our upcoming trip to London - cannot wait!

Infant of Prague School expands
Diocese of Raleigh
Infant of Prague Catholic School, located in Jacksonville, NC, has been providing a high quality Catholic education for kindergarten through 8th grade students in the Jacksonville area since the early 1950s. With the continued growth of the Camp Lejeune Marine Corps and surrounding coastal regions, the school has experienced a 95% increase in student enrollment in the last decade.
While IOPCS has expanded in recent years to provide multiple classrooms for a number of grade levels, the existing school building is at maximum capacity. Additionally, there is a high interest for Catholic education beyond the 8th grade level in the area.
"Our parish community is vibrant," said IOPCS principal Jennifer Feldhaus. "All of our ministry areas, not just the school but also our youth programs and our thrift store and outreach resource center, are growing. We were simply no longer able to meet the growing demand to access a quality, Catholic education."
Thanks to the generosity and strong desire to support Catholic education of Infant of Prague parishioners, the parish recently made a cash purchase of an existing school building and chapel just a half a mile from its current school campus.
"Across the diocese, we are always looking to meet local Catholic education needs," said Diocese of Raleigh school superintendent Lytia Reese. "While the demand in the Jacksonville area is not unique, we are fortunate to have a growth 'problem' in a number of areas in our diocese. The parish response, however, was exceptional. The Infant of Prague community truly invested in their parish and school's future with this effort."
Renovation work will be required to transition the building to traditional classrooms, bring those classrooms and common areas up to modern building codes, and update the overall facilities. Because the building was not used as a traditional school but as a Sunday school facility, the property will require a change-of-use designation with the city of Jacksonville.
"While the building will require significant work before it is ready to serve our growing school community, we're fortunate that the building location and overall design is ideal for our needs," said Infant of Prague business manager Jose Cabrera. "The city of Jacksonville has also been extremely helpful and cooperative throughout the entire process."
The projected start time for the work will be October 2022, with a projected school opening in August 2023. In addition to expanding additional kindergarten through 8th grade classrooms, the building will allow for additional grade levels to be added for the parish to provide a full kindergarten through high school education for area students.
"We have been committed to providing a high quality spiritual and educational Catholic school experience and partnering with our parents," said Feldhaus. "This expansion is truly an extension of that partnership, and we are grateful and very excited about what the future holds."

André de Albuquerque Ribafria was a 17th-century Portuguese nobleman and military leader. Orphaned at a young age, Ribafria won fame as a commander during the Portuguese Restoration War, fighting in several notable battles before being killed in action.

Biography
Ribafria was born in Sintra, Portugal on 30 May 1621. He and his family were part of the Portuguese noble class, and when his remaining parent died in 1636, Ribafria and his three siblings were placed under the care of Antão de Almada, Count of Avranches.

In 1638, Ribafria was deployed to the Portuguese colony of Brazil to fight against forces of the Dutch Republic; at the time, Portugal was indirectly ruled (via the Iberian Union) by King Philip V of Spain, who was engaged in a decades-long war with the Dutch. Ribafria returned to Portugal the following year, and was immersed in the increasingly-prominent calls for the restoration of the Portuguese monarchy.

On 1 December 1640, a cadre of Portuguese noblemen (later known as the Forty Conspirators) revolted against Spanish rule and crowned John IV of Portugal as king of an independent Portugal. His guardian was one of the conspirators, and so Ribafria quickly joined the pro-independence faction inside Portugal, eventually being granted a command in the reformed Portuguese army.

During the Restoration War, Ribafria fought in numerous engagements on the Spanish-Portuguese border. Ribafria was praised for his bravery and leadership abilities, and was commended as a highly effective cavalry commander. During an engagement near the Spanish city of Badajoz in 1668, Ribafria became ill, and was forced to withdraw to the Portuguese town of Elvas. While convalescing there, the town was besieged by a large Spanish army. Though still stricken with illness, Ribafria helped to coordinate the defense of the town. After several weeks of siege, a Portuguese relief force (commanded by António Luís de Meneses) arrived and assaulted the Spanish siege works, beginning the Battle of the Lines of Elvas. Limping into battle and wielding a cane, Ribafria encouraged the garrison of Elvas to sally from the town and attack the Spanish besiegers. During this action, he was shot below the arm and mortally wounded.

Following his death Ribafria's body was buried in the Chapel of St. Antony in the Church of St. Francis of Capuchos.

It's being reported that Square Enix and Sony are being sued for $5 million due to some copies of Final Fantasy XIII allegedly causing PS3's to become unresponsive.
Wolf said he purchased FFXIII on release day, and his console became unresponsive and stopped playing any media after he tried to save his game.
"Both Defendants are eminently aware of the damage being cause by their defective products, and have chosen to do nothing about it," the lawsuit says.
The suit goes on to say that Sony and Square Enix have been blaming each other for the issues, with neither company willing to cover the cost of a repair.
Sony and Square have refused to comment on the matter.

As a team, we identified the requirement for a standard approach to the management of projects, and as part of my new role, I will be responsible for documenting and implementing the tools, processes and procedures to ensure we deliver a first class service to our clients. This is an exciting time to be stepping up inside the Hill Robinson team, and I am looking forward to the challenges that lie ahead."
Hill Robinson Partner Karl Hartmann adds: ''Internal promotion and career development are really important for us here at Hill Robinson. I myself am a good example; I started as a Project Manager, and am now a Partner. Everyone at Hill Robinson knows that the business is expanding and thriving, and a long-term career is here for anyone to grow their position in the company. Kevin has been an integral and important member of our projects operations for five years and has now taken the position of Director of Projects to support us in further developing the project management process to the next level''.
Hill Robinson is strengthening the project management teams in many of their key locations, Pino Di Mora heading up the La Spezia office, Chris Wright in Florida working with Savannah and Rybovich.
Nacho Diaz Huerta joined the Palma de Mallorca team and comments about his new position as a Project Manager: "My professional life originally started in Madrid. Ten years ago I had the opportunity to come to Palma de Mallorca and work in the yachting industry, after which I began a career with Astilleros de Mallorca and STP leading to my last position of a project manager.

Chainsawesome Games today announced that its new 3v3 asymmetrical competitive shooter-brawler Aftercharge will be heading to Nintendo Switch later this summer.
Chainsawesome also announced support for three-way online cross-platform play between Nintendo Switch and previously announced Windows PC and Xbox One Aftercharge versions.
In Aftercharge, six glowing structures called extractors are at the center of each match and serve as the objective for both teams — the attacking Workonics droids and the defending Enforcers guards.
Choose from a total of eight unique characters, each with their own attacks, defensive abilities and weapons for a variety of tactical options. Although the objective of the game is simple, Aftercharge's team-based gameplay relies heavily on strategy and stealth, where every player is vital to obtaining victory.
Team up with players anywhere around the world and face-off against opponents of similar skill level thanks to Windows PC, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch cross-platform play.
Aftercharge is set on the distant planet of Dusk 11, exploited by the titular corporation for the energy at its core. Designed originally to avoid industrial espionage, the company's workonics worker robots are defecting due to the planet's now unstable energy, which has put the company's extractors (and all life on the planet) at risk.
The Workonics set out to destroy the extractors and must face off against human Enforcers guards who are invulnerable to robot attacks. Luckily for them, the Workonics have invisibility on their side.


Digital Brighton & Hove recently ran a day of 'digital discovery' for local charities and social enterprises keen to embark on their digital journey and start turning initial interest into action.
Bringing together over 65 representatives from the local third, public and private sector over two half-day sessions, the day served as a good reminder that the digital revolution has indeed happened and that 'going digital' is no longer a niche idea for the local third sector, but rather a necessity.
With plenty of appetite and engagement on display, the question is not so much if change is on the horizon but rather how to make that change happen for our local sector.
Ellie Hale from the Centre for Acceleration of Social Technology (CAST) made a convincing case on why digital matters for charities and social enterprises. We've seen a number of recent reports from the likes of the Skills Platform, Tech Trust and Lloyds Banking Group showing growing recognition across the sector of the importance of digital. SCVO's Creating a Digitally Confident Scotland and the government's Civil Society Strategy have also placed a strong emphasis on building the sector's digital capacity.
"Although many charities use social media and sites like Just Giving to spread campaigns or engage donors, they're largely missing an opportunity to use digital to better understand and respond to the changing needs and context of the communities they serve. They haven't yet entered this new age yet".
The free Design Hop workshop run by CAST in the afternoon was a first opportunity to change this mindset – rather than focus on specific digital solutions, the session offered a simple step-by-step approach to designing services which put users front and centre.
With around 2,300 voluntary and community organisations in Brighton and Hove under increasing pressure to provide more effective and better services, there is recognition from key stakeholders that something needs to happen… and fast.
Over 600 of those organisations are members of Community Works, which plays an important role in helping build their capacity by providing advice and support. Jess Sumner, CEO of Community Works, explained in a panel discussion that digital was becoming increasingly important for both Community Works (as a leading organisation in the sector) and its members – for instance, a new 'Digital representative' has recently been appointed to gain a better understanding of the needs of the sector when it comes to digital, and how to best support them. The growing importance of digital skills in the sector is also being increasingly recognised, alongside other skills like business development and fundraising.
Meanwhile, John Reading who oversees Brighton and Hove City Council's Third Sector Investment programme, encouraged the sector to work even more collaboratively and creatively through new forms of cross-sector partnerships.
A panel of experts: Jess Sumner (Community Works), Richard Rutter (Clearleft), Ellie Hale (CAST), John Reading (BHCC) and Beth Mukushi (SCVO Digital).
This is a need that we recognise locally. The core of Digital Brighton & Hove's work has been to embed digital champions (currently over 400) across different public services already going through some form of digital transformation – in other words, where digital inclusion forms part of a broader organisational digital strategy.
Things can become more challenging when applying the same embedded digital champion approach to those organisations who are at a very early stage of their digital development. And with 45% of charities without a digital strategy, this constitutes many of the organisations we collaborate with. For some of these, we're running the risk of digital inclusion becoming just a 'bolt on' activity.
Building on the digital training we provide mainly for frontline staff, an important need is therefore to boost the digital confidence of a whole organisation, including its leaders and trustees. And at the heart of this lies digital skills.
Research findings from the Charity Digital Skills Report 2018 show that 53% of charities see their digital skills as fair or low, with 65% stating that developing digital skills would help encourage and retain staff (Charity Digital Skills report 2018). Meanwhile, our own research shows that 16% of adults living in Brighton & Hove don't have basic digital skills. Those at risk of being left behind aren't just the service users but also the staff who are supporting these service users – and potentially a whole sector is at risk of falling behind.
We often hear of the 'blockers' that prevent change from happening (lack of funding, skills, etc.), but there are also many opportunities to take a first simple step. A recurring theme during our session was the power of networks in providing a space to share good practice among different stakeholders, and helping them to connect with the local digital sector. The good news is that such a space is fast emerging in Brighton & Hove.
On top of our Digital Inclusion Network which comprises over 200 organisations, mainly from the public and third sector, we've recently launched our sister network Tech for Good Brighton, with the aim of engaging more closely with digital agencies. Set up as an experiment during Brighton Digital Festival 2018, its aim is to see how we might bring together our vibrant digital sector and social sector, and together explore how digital technologies can create more social impact locally. Counting over 350 members, it's become the fastest growing Tech for Good community in the UK.
Richard Rutter, Founder of Clearleft, one of Brighton's leading digital agencies and supporter of Tech for Good Brighton, explained during the panel discussion that he sees it as an exciting opportunity to find out how local digital agencies can use their expertise and talent to help local social projects. And with more local digital agencies and other businesses coming on board, we could be looking at next army of 'ready-made' digital champions helping to make this change happen locally!
There are a number of other sector-wide initiatives and resources to help charities start their digital evolution, from the Charity Digital Code of Practice to NCVO's Digital Maturity Matrix to CAST's digital design principles. The Charity catalogue is great to find out more about digital tools and this Conversation Menu is also helpful when starting that conversation with your digital partner.
There is a growing number of grant funders who are now actively supporting digital, with ever-growing pots of funding including the National Lottery's Digital Fund and Comic Relief.

Q: What IDE should I use for experimenting with the Chromium source code According to http://code.google.com/p/chromium/wiki/LinuxEclipseDev
"Developing Chrome with Eclipse/CDT is fairly unpolished."
Which IDE would be polished and provide a more favourable experience?
I'm using Ubuntu 10.10.

A: You could try Monodevelop. As far as I know, it supports Visual Studio projects which can be generated by the Chromium build system.

The cutting edge of new forest management starts here.
On Oct. 9 last week, the B.C. Government responded to the findings of the special committee on timber supply which convened over the summer of 2012. It brought no surprises. As outlined by natural resource minster Steve Thomson and parliamentary secretary for forestry John Rustad, the response emphasized the need for complete post-pine beetle inventories of affected timber supply areas (TSAs), the conversion of volume-based to area-based timber tenures, and the move to increased community and First Nations forest licenses.
The conversion of volume based tenures to area based tenures is meant to give local communities, First Nations and industry 'partners' a vested interest in the sustainability of their own timber supply areas. "Burns Lake is a potential model for other communities," said Thomson.
And if a spatially defined stand has been killed through pine beetle infestation, "Can we move that [old growth] area to a different space and allow for harvesting to occur?" asked Strimbold. This flexible approach to finding and managing old growth in a forest district that Strimbold describes is called non-spatial old growth management.
But these changes won't come from the top down. "We're not planning to make changes anywhere else unless local groups come forward and say that they want a review," said Rustad. "We'll support that review and help them with the science, but it will be their decision.

#1 in Best Places to Visit in May
By late May, most of Yellowstone's trails and attractions are open, welcoming eager nature enthusiasts seeking a breath of fresh air. The 50-degree temperatures provide the perfect atmosphere for a hike on one of the Old Faithful Area's trails or a kayaking excursion on Yellowstone Lake. For a glimpse of wildlife, head to Lamar Valley to view wolf pups emerging from their dens. Keep in mind that if you visit during Memorial Day weekend, you'll likely run into crowds.
Best Hotels | Flights | Things to Do
May is a great time to visit this seaside Spanish city before the heat and humidity become unbearable. Can't-miss architectural marvels to check out include Antoni Gaudí's whimsical Park Güell and the Gothic-style Sagrada Família. Make sure to also visit some of Barcelona's highly regarded museums, such as the Picasso Museum, and relax at La Barceloneta beach. Remember to bring good walking shoes to wear while exploring the city.
Few places in the world are as beautiful as Big Sur. This roughly 90-mile stretch of California coastline features numerous hiking trails spread throughout several state parks. Big Sur is also home to some of the country's most secluded, picturesque beaches, such as Pfeiffer Beach. May's comfortable temps and stunning spring blooms make this month a popular time to visit, so arrive early in the day to avoid the thickest crowds.
While this Wyoming valley is known for its superb ski conditions, Jackson Hole offers a host of outdoor attractions off of the slopes that are best enjoyed in the mild spring climate. Get in touch with your inner cowboy by horseback riding, or go fly-fishing to catch your own dinner. You can also attend the annual ElkFest, where the local Boy Scout troop auctions off elk antlers to help pay for upkeep of the National Elk Refuge. Another major plus: You'll find reduced room rates at many upscale resorts and hotels.
The nation's capital brims with bright blooms come late spring thanks to daytime highs in the 70s. The weather is ideal for hopping between the city's free museums and photo ops at monuments along the National Mall, including the Lincoln Memorial and the World War II Memorial. Visiting in May also ensures that you'll sidestep the tourist crowds and inflated prices of early spring's National Cherry Blossom Festival. If you're set on seeing beautiful flowers, head to the U.S. Botanic Gardens or the U.S. National Arboretum.
Itching for a Florida beach getaway before summer is in full swing? Miami Beach is the place to go. Not only are daytime temperatures in the mid-80s, but by May, spring breakers are long gone, leaving you plenty of space to stretch out on South Beach's sand. On particularly sunny days, enjoy sweeping water views from the comfort of a shaded pavilion at South Pointe Park. You may want to catch a midafternoon nap if you plan on partying until the wee hours at the nightclubs along Ocean Drive.
This Virginia town is jampacked with historical sites that provide a window into how colonists lived. Travelers can visit blacksmith and masonry shops or tour restored 18th-century homes complete with reenactors dressed in period garb. Vacationers who arrive in May – before school lets out for the summer – will be rewarded with fewer crowds at Colonial Williamsburg and nearby Busch Gardens. Plus, daytime temperatures in May hover in the 70s, making it a great month for walking around and scoring some deals at the Williamsburg Premium Outlets.
Considered the birthplace of democracy and drama, Athens boasts a historical legacy that is hard to top. The main reason to visit is to see the ancient city's impressive ruins, which you'll find at the Acropolis and Ancient Agora. For an additional look at Athens' past, check out the incredible Greek artifacts on display at the National Archaeological Museum and the Benaki Museum. May vacations are especially enjoyable thanks to comfortable daytime temps hovering between the mid-70s and low 80s.
May falls within this Peruvian city's winter season, though you probably wouldn't notice thanks to its consistently mild temperatures. This month rarely sees rain showers, and you'll encounter fewer tourists at archaeological wonders like La Catedral – which sits in the restaurant- and coffee shop-filled Plaza de Armas – and Machu Picchu – a UNESCO World Heritage Site located about 50 miles northwest of Cusco. If you're up for a challenge, hike the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu. This difficult trek through the area's towering mountains takes about four days to complete.
#10 in Best Places to Visit in May
Bright turquoise water, gorgeous white sand and lush green vegetation await vacationers in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Composed of 32 islands and cays, this Caribbean archipelago is perfect for a tropical getaway. May falls between the country's peak winter season and its hurricane-prone low season, making it an ideal time for scuba diving and snorkeling in the Tobago Cays, swimming and soaking up some rays at Canouan's beaches and hiking to beautiful waterfalls like Dark View Falls. Travelers will also want to check out the country's 20-acre Botanical Gardens, the oldest available in the Western Hemisphere.
For some truly spectacular wildlife viewing, head to Kruger National Park. This nearly 5 million-acre South African park is home to Africa's Big Five – buffaloes, elephants, leopards, lions and rhinos – as well as other animals like cheetahs, crocodiles and more than 500 species of birds. Sign up for multiple game drives and bush walks during different times for improved chances of seeing a variety of animals. In May, prioritize visits to wet landmarks like the Hippo Pool since many animals congregate around diminishing watering holes during this dry season month.
Visit Laguna Beach for a laid-back beach vacation. May is part of this Southern California town's spring shoulder season, so you'll find fewer people on popular stretches of sand like Main Beach and Crescent Bay. Plus, the quieter month is ideal for relaxation-focused activities, such as outdoor yoga and hiking. When travelers need a break from reconnecting with themselves or nature, they can check out Laguna Beach's thriving art scene, which includes hundreds of galleries, studios and public works of art.
Kakadu National Park – Australia's largest national park – is one of the most unique places on Earth. Designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site because of its natural and cultural value, Kakadu is an excellent place to visit in May, a month at the beginning of Yegge (the area's dry season). Here, you can learn about the indigenous Australians who have inhabited the land for more than 40,000 years and view rock art that's up to 20,000 years old. Kakadu also boasts stunning waterfalls, dramatic landscapes and rare animals like wallabies and crocodiles, so pack a camera and a pair of binoculars.
Although it is best known as a ski resort, Mont-Tremblant is equally appealing to visit during the warmer months. Arrive in May after the ski crowds have dispersed to enjoy hiking and biking through Quebec's Laurentian Mountains. May is also considered one of the best months for hitting the links on Mont-Tremblant's six championship golf courses. If you're traveling with children, try kid-friendly activities like go-karting, horseback riding and falconry.
Best Hotels | Flights
May is toward the end of Huatulco's dry season, meaning you can still enjoy this Mexican destination's warm, sunny weather without the crowds and high accommodation rates commonly found during the peak winter and spring months. This resort town in Oaxaca draws sun-seeking travelers to its nine bays and 36 beaches. Common beach activities range from snorkeling to bird-watching. Vacationers can also hike through some of Huatulco National Park's thousands of acres or take a daytrip to Hagia Sofia to see its beautiful butterflies and flowers.

I've said it on this blog before and I'll say it again: if you love glitter polish, you need some Loaded Lacquer in your life! They truly are the best glitters... ever! Today I have another gorgeous glitterbomb to show you.
Loaded Lacquer Giddy Up is a clear base packed with multi-sized holographic silver hex, berry pink hex, bright pink hex, lilac hex, holographic magenta hex, and an incredibly unique blue/gray hex!
Wow... that's a lot of glitter and it makes for one stunning combination!
The formula is, like all Loaded lacquer glitters I've tried, perfect. The glitters come out easily, no fishing required, even the large glitters are very well behaved. All you need is 1 coat over an opaque base for a stunning result, or you can add a second or third coat to get it completely opaque all on its own. That's how packed with glitter this polish is.
I layered Giddy Up over OPI Dim Sum Plum for this mani and I really love the combination. The deep plum base makes the glitter pop on my nails and when the sun hits the holo glitter... I have no words to describe how gorgeous this polish is. An absolute must have in my book!
Loaded Lacquer is available on this website. Heather (creator of Loaded Lacquer) just posted on Facebook and Instagram that she will be coming out with a new collection very soon, the Sushi Bar Collection.
Oh boy... Heather, what are you doing to me? Not only are your polishes awesome and hard to resist, now you combine my two favorite things in 1 collection: sushi and glitter! I need them all!
Have you tried Loaded Lacquer and if not, what's stopping you?
I so agree Anca, it is the best Indie Polish I have even seen!!!


The eyes of the fish will be glossy and clear.
The gills of the fish will be bright red, not oxidised to brown or grey.
The texture of the fish will be firm.
The scales will be shiny and tight, not loose and flaking away.
The fish won't smell 'fishy'. It should smell of the sea.
To get fresh fish, the best advice is to build a good relationship with your fishmonger. He will be able to steer you in the right direction. Buy the freshest produce you can and cook with the seasons – this way it will taste great and you'll pay the best price. Cook your fish on the day you buy if you can.


THIS PAGE IS GOING AWAY!
This offer will expire on Sunday August 28, 2016 - at midnight, and will no longer be available. Don't miss this!
I'm excited to share these, as an added incentive. I'm giving away 3 resources, which includes our FREE WordPress plugin software to create your very own interactive content/lead capture system.
You'll also receive the 50 email (examples you can swipe & deploy) and my latest book from Entrepreneur (shipping cost only). All of this is yours, even if we decide not to work together.

Dead for a Ducat (Reign or Shine Productions) 2018 Toronto Fringe Review
July 6, 2018 Allison Gerson
Dead for a Ducat by Reign or Shine Productions at the Toronto Fringe Festival is a mash up of a classic film noir detective story and Hamlet. I like film noir. I like Shakespeare. And I definitely liked Dead for a Ducat. It's an ingenious new take on a classic tale.Playwright Matthew Klein has taken Shakespeare's characters and some basic plot elements and moved them to the world of organized crime in 1950's San Diego. Private Investigator Dashell Hamlet's partner has been killed, and he's got to do something about it. Along the way he gets tangled up with Claude Moran, who runs the city's gambling ring and happens to be in love with Dash's mother Gertie. The show is full of clever twists on character names that will delight any Shakespeare nerd. (My favorites were police officers Gil Stern and Roz Crantz.)
All the roles are played by only two actors, Peter Coleman and Charlotte Foster. Both wear black pants, white tank tops, and suspenders. The actors use signature accessories such as a black fedora or a mink stole to indicate who they are at any given moment. I've seen this technique used before, but it's even more important to follow the fedora in this production because the actors often swap roles – sometimes mid-scene. It's quite a feat.
At first, I found this a little confusing, but I got the hang of it pretty quickly. The transitions were seamless and really well executed, so it was soon easy to keep track of who was who.
Klein's dialogue is snappy and full of classic film noir detective lingo. It's slangy and cool, with a hint of Hollywood glamour. Coleman and Foster deliver their lines in the style of Humphrey Bogart and Mary Astor in The Maltese Falcon. I thought they both were extremely versatile actors. Whether they were playing men or women, police officers or crooks, they embodied the role. They also had a great rapport.
Kelly M. Johnston's direction also deserves a mention. All the role switching and scene changes in the show necessitate some careful blocking and staging, and the actors made it seem like a well-choreographed dance.
Dead for a Ducat is a fast-paced, stylish blend of classic and modern stories that feels both familiar and fresh. It's a ton of fun and worth a look.
Dead For A Ducat plays at the St. Vladimir Institute. (620 Spadina Ave.)
Tickets are $13, including a $2 service charge. The festival also offers a range of money-saving passes and discounts for serious Fringers.
Tickets can be purchased online, by telephone (416-966-1062), from the Festival Box Office at Scadding Court (707 Dundas St. W.), and — if any remain — from the venue's box office starting one hour before curtain.
Content Warning: Gunshots.
This venue is wheelchair-accessible through a secondary route. After the building's business hours, a staff member will need to escort you through this route, so plan to arrive at least 15 minutes early for evening shows.
Be aware that Fringe performances always start exactly on time, and that latecomers are never admitted.
