Children of Bodom is a heavy metal band from Espoo, Finland. There is some contention regarding the band's genre classification, but in general the band's musical style can be described as a cross between melodic death metal and power metal (with some concluding this tag only includes their earlier works).
Their name was derived from the Lake Bodom murders.
The lyrics of Children of Bodom's songs are written in English and are most often concerned with the subjects of death/the grim reaper, personal struggles, war and the Lake Bodom murders.
Recent albums have seen a shift to more antagonistic lyrics (songs such as "You're Better Off Dead" and "In Your Face") and a more straight-forward heavy metal style.

Q: Colimits in that category of short exact sequences of abelian groups I'm wondering whether the category whose objects are short exact sequences of abelian groups, and whose morphisms are commutative diagrams of such short exact sequences, is cocomplete. Working naively, it seems you can get coproducts by taking them componentwise. However, for coequalizers, I think we are not so lucky. Consider the two short exact sequences $0 \rightarrow 0 \rightarrow \mathbb{Z} \rightarrow \mathbb{Z} \rightarrow 0$ and $0 \rightarrow \mathbb{Z} \rightarrow \mathbb{Z} \rightarrow 0 \rightarrow 0$ with maps between integers being the identity. Consider the morphism from the first sequence to the second which is the identity on the middle map between the integers and obviously zero elsewhere. Then taking cokernels componentwise would give $0 \rightarrow \mathbb{Z} \rightarrow 0 \rightarrow 0 \rightarrow 0$, which clearly cannot be exact.
So the obvious candidate for cokernels is not the correct one, but perhaps there is another not-so-obvious choice. I'm wondering how I might go about showing whether or not there are coequalizers.

A: This is an expansion of Jason's comment.
The category of short exact sequences is obviously additive and has arbitrary coproducts. Thus, cocompleteness is equivalent to the existence of cokernels. So let us given a morphism $f_* : A_* \to B_*$ of short exact sequences:
$\begin{array}{ccccccccc} 0 & \rightarrow & A_1 & \rightarrow & A_2 & \rightarrow & A_3 & \rightarrow & 0 \\  &  & ~ ~ \downarrow f_1 &  &~~  \downarrow f_2 &  & ~~ \downarrow f_3 &  &   \\ 0 & \rightarrow & B_1 & \rightarrow & B_2 & \rightarrow & B_3 & \rightarrow & 0 \end{array}$
The snake lemma gives us an exact sequence
$0 \to \mathrm{ker}(f_1) \to \mathrm{ker}(f_2) \to \mathrm{ker}(f_3) \to \mathrm{coker}(f_1) \to \mathrm{coker}(f_2) \to \mathrm{coker}(f_3) \to 0.$
Let $K$ be the kernel of $\mathrm{coker}(f_1) \to \mathrm{coker}(f_2)$. Equivalently, $K \cong \mathrm{ker}(f_3) / (\mathrm{ker}(f_2) / \mathrm{ker}(f_1))$. Then we have a short exact sequence $C_*$ defined by
$0 \to \mathrm{coker}(f_1) /K \to \mathrm{coker}(f_2) \to \mathrm{coker}(f_3) \to 0$
together with a morphism $p_* : B_* \to C_*$. I claim that this is the cokernel of $f_*$. It is an epimorphism since it components are epimorphisms. It factors through the non-exact cokernel of $f_*$, therefore we have $p_* f_* = 0$. Now let $D_*$ be another exact sequence and $g_* : B_* \to D_*$ be a morphism satisfying $g_* f_*$. Then $g_*$ factors through the non-exact cokernel of $f_*$.
We are left to prove that $g_1 : B_1 \to D_1$ vanishes on $K$, so that it even factors through $C_1= \mathrm{coker}(f_1) /K$. But this is a diagram chase: An element in $K$ is represented by an element in $B_1$ whose image in $B_2$ comes from an element in $A_2$. Thus the image in $D_2$ vanishes. Since $0 \to D_1 \to D_2$ is exact, this means that the image in $D_1$ already vanishes, qed.
Of course this reasoning can also be done with arrows. Therefore, if $\mathcal{A}$ is an arbitrary abelian category, then the category $S(\mathcal{A})$ of short exact sequences in $\mathcal{A}$ has cokernels and (by duality also) kernels. If $\mathcal{A}$ has coproducts and satisfies has AB4, then $S(\mathcal{A})$ has arbitrary coproducts and is therefore cocomplete.
The category of short exact sequences is never abelian, in fact not balanced: From the above description of cokernels we see that $f_*$ is an epimorphism in that category iff $f_2,f_3$ are epimorphisms. Intuitively it is ok that $f_1$ doesn't appear here since $f_1$ is uniquely determined by $f_2,f_3$ due to the exactness! Similarily, $f_*$ is a monomorphism iff $f_1,f_2$ are monomorphisms. Thus, $f_*$ is a mono- and an epimorphism iff $f_2$ is an isomorphism, $f_1$ is a monomorphism and $f_3$ is an epimorphism. However, $f_*$ is an isomorphism iff $f_1,f_2,f_3$ are isomorphisms.
Addendum.
We can simplify these arguments a lot: Consider the category $E(\mathcal{A}) \subseteq \mathrm{Mor}(\mathcal{A})$ of epimorphisms in $\mathcal{A}$. The morphisms are commutative diagrams. Obviously, coproducts and cokernels exist in this category, since the category is closed under these operations in $\mathrm{Mor}(\mathcal{A})$. There is a forgetful functor $S(\mathcal{A}) \to E(\mathcal{A})$, which turns out to be an equivalence of categories! The quasi-inverse chooses for every epimorphism $A_2 \to A_3 \to 0$ a kernel $0 \to A_1 \to A_2$. For every morphism $(f_2,f_3) : A_* \to B_*$ in $E(\mathcal{A})$ the universal property of the kernel yields a unique $f_1 : A_1 \to B_1$ such that $(f_1,f_2,f_3)$ becomes a morphism in $S(\mathcal{A})$. Since $E(\mathcal{A})$ is cocomplete, the same is true for $S(\mathcal{A})$. If one unwinds the definitions, one gets the same cokernels as described above explicitly.

With age you get more and more nostalgic and I am no exception. I traded some of my model vehicles for works of art in the 1980s, which I now kind of regret - not that the art isn't nice or maybe even valuable, but for the fact that you can't really value nostalgia, and I do miss those I traded. The remaining, in varying degree of decay, are still in my storage. I have photographed some of them, including some plastic models, and put them on this page, mostly for my own fun I guess. Still, to those of you who find this page: I hope you like viewing my little collection although many of the vehicles are worn and some repainted or even ready for the scrapyard.

The 38th Kinsale Gourmet Festival on the weekend of 10-12 October created a sparkling weekend in the Cork seaside resort for food lovers from home and abroad. The event was fully sold out, and there is already a waiting list to book for next year's festival when tickets become available.
Seafood platters took pride of place at Sunday's Fruits de Mer Luncheon at Acton's Hotel. French onion soup was followed by deliciously prepared local mussels and platters of fruits de mer featuring lobster, crabs, prawns and other delights from the deep, with wine sponsored by Christy's Wines and Karwig. After freshly roasted Bewleys coffee, there was dancing to live music from Midleton-based band, the Magnetics. Jim O'Brien, General Manager of the Old Head Golf Links, was surprised and gratified to receive a presentation of Kinsale Crystal from Kinsale Good Food Circle in recognition of the golf course's contribution to Kinsale. Guests at the lunch included Celebrity Chef Ross Lewis of Chapter One. The charity auction after lunch raised a very generous total of €14,431for Kinsale Pink Ribbon Walk in aid of Action Breast Cancer. The items auctioned included a four-ball package for the Old Head Golf Links with accommodation at Acton's Hotel and dinner at a Good Food Circle restaurant, two nights' accommodation and wakeboarding at Ballyhass Lakes Activity Centre, a diamond necklace sponsored by Frances Lynch, rugby merchandise including a signed Munster shirt and a Heineken Cup match ball. A 5 star all-inclusive week's holiday on a Croatian island was offered from the floor, and people bid for TV chefs Paul Flynn and Martin Shanahan of Surf and Turf fame to cook dinner for ten in the bidder's own home with all ingredients supplied. A similar package was offered by Man Friday chefs Philip and Daniel Horgan.

Digital Memory Studies Media Pasts In Transition Free Download eBook in PDF and EPUB. You can find writing review for Digital Memory Studies Media Pasts In Transition and get all the book for free.
Digital media, networks and archives reimagine and revitalize individual, social and cultural memory but they also ensnare it, bringing it under new forms of control. Understanding these paradoxical conditions of remembering and forgetting through today's technologies needs bold interdisciplinary interventions. Digital Memory Studies seizes this challenge and pioneers an agenda that interrogates concepts, theories and histories of media and memory studies, to map a holistic vision for the study of the digital remaking of memory. Through the lenses of connectivity, archaeology, economy, and archive, contributors illuminate the uses and abuses of the digital past via an array of media and topics, including television, videogames and social media, and memory institutions, network politics and the digital afterlife.
We remember in social contexts. We reminisce about the past together, collaborate to remember shared experiences, and, even when we are alone, we remember in the context of our communities and cultures. Taking an interdisciplinary approach throughout, this text comprehensively covers collaborative remembering across the fields of developmental psychology, cognitive psychology, social psychology, discourse processing, philosophy, neuropsychology, design, and media studies. It highlights points ofoverlap and contrast across the many disciplinary perspectives and, with its sections on "Approaches of Collaborative Remembering" and "Applications of Collaborative Remembering", also connects basic and applied research.Written with late-stage undergraduates and early-stage graduates in mind, the book is also a valuable tool for memory specialists and academics in the fields of psychology, cognitive science and philosophy who are interested in collaborative memory research.
In most Western developed countries, adult life is increasingly organized on the basis of short-term work contracts and reduced social security funds. In this context it seems that producing efficient job-seekers and employees becomes the main aim of educational programs for the next generation. Through case studies of young people from urban and countryside marginalized populations in Germany, USA and Brazil, this book investigates emerging educational practices and takes a critical stance towards what can be seen as neoliberal educational politics. It investigates how mediating devices such as CVs, school reports, school files, photos and narratives shape the ways in which those marginalized students reflect about their past as well as imagine their future. By building on process philosophy and time theory, post-structuralism, as well as on Vygotsky's psychological theory, the analysis differentiates between two discrete modes of human development: development of concrete skills (potential development) and development of new societal relations (virtual development, which is at the same time individual and collective). The book outlines an innovative relational account of learning and human development which can prove of particular importance for the education of marginalized students in today's globalized world.

Tackling domestic violence and its workplace effects in China
by Yang Hao | Mar 22, 2020 | The Agenda
The scourge of domestic violence obeys no national boundaries. Its repercussions reach far beyond the individual victim and the walls of the home. Studies have shown that women with a history of domestic violence have more erratic work histories, have lower personal incomes, change jobs more frequently, and are more likely to rely on casual and part-time work than other women. Estimates in some developing countries have put the cost in lost productivity at 1.2-1.4% of GDP.
The Third Wave Survey on the Social Status of Women in China, jointly conducted by the All-China Women's Federation and National Bureau of Statistics, was first held in 2011 and will be repeated every 10 years. It found that 24.7% of married Chinese women had suffered some form of domestic violence from their husbands. Keeping survivors employed is critical to their economic independence, which is a key pathway to escape and recovery from violent relationships.
Workplaces are at the forefront of supporting victims of domestic violence.
China's national Anti–Domestic Violence Law, which came into effect in March 2016 after more than a decade of advocacy, defines domestic violence as "the inflicting of physical, psychological, or other harm by a family member on another by beating, trussing, injury, restraint and forcible limits on personal freedom, recurring verbal abuse, threats, and other means."
The domestic violence law also requires trade unions to conduct awareness programs and provide psychological counselling to both victims and perpetrators.
The law identifies employers as key actors in combating domestic violence, along with government, the judiciary, women's federations, medical institutions, and others. Its provisions require employers to discipline and educate perpetrators and to provide support for victims. The domestic violence law also requires trade unions to conduct awareness programs and provide psychological counselling to both victims and perpetrators.
In addition to the resulting legal liabilities, enterprises risk economic losses if they do not deal effectively with the impact of domestic violence in the workplace. In China, The Asia Foundation and its local partner, SynTao, published a study in 2017. Based on an online survey of 488 employees and 60 human resources managers, the study found that 13.3% of respondents had experienced domestic violence in the preceding 12 months, and nearly half had experienced domestic violence from abusers who pursued them to the workplace.
Domestic violence-awareness training has been deployed across a range of organisations.
Not only are there big physical and emotional impacts on survivors that affects their safety, productivity and career development, but employers also pay significant related costs due to reduced productivity, absence from work and employee turnover. The study estimated the annual cost to employers at nearly 4% of wages.
Workplace interventions could help employers mitigate these costs. A 2016 study from the Australia Institute's Centre for Future Work found that the cost of these interventions would be offset by reduced turnover, improved productivity and other factors.
Employers had a very limited understanding of their legal obligations under the law and they lacked the knowledge or ability to raise awareness, establish workable grievance procedures for survivors or admonish perpetrators.
The Asia Foundation's study found, however, that employers had a very limited understanding of their legal obligations under the law and that they lacked the knowledge or ability to effectively raise awareness, establish workable grievance procedures for survivors or admonish perpetrators. As a result, few employers had adopted policies to address the impact of domestic violence in the workplace, and their awareness of possible solutions was quite low.
Since 2018, the Asia Foundation has been working with local partners to convene workshops and events to raise awareness of the impact of domestic violence on employees and employers and to devise solutions. We have developed a toolkit, the first of its kind in China, for employers, HR managers, employees, and advocates that presents basic information about the effects of domestic violence in the workplace and provides specific guidelines, tips, and resources for each of these four groups.
The Asia Foundation currently has pilot programs with enterprises in Beijing, Shanghai, Shandong, and Guangdong to develop policies and interventions to assist DV survivors and admonish perpetrators, and case studies will be forthcoming in 2020.

A Snapshot of US Politics: Where We Are and What We Can Do About It
As most of you know, America is no longer the democratic republic established by our Founding Fathers. Over the decades, but especially since the end of World War II in 1945, the US has morphed into an Oligarchy; a plutocracy with a near permanent political class comprised of politicians, professional staffers, bureaucrats who manage agencies with little oversight except by their fellow insiders (and certainly with little to no public accountability), and the ever present corporate lobbyists, which nearly every politician aspires to become, and in the background, the corporate and financial elites.
Corporations nowadays essentially run Washington via their messenger boys and girls, the lobbyists, which means they run America, especially with the Supreme Court's "Citizens United" fiasco in 2010 which defined corporations as "people", or "Frankensteins" as I prefer to call them. It also declared money to be "free speech", except that these Frankensteins have unlimited "free speech" while you and I are still capped in how much say we have when it comes to elections. It's often been said that money is the life blood or mother's milk of politics. Personally, I think it's more the "crack" of politics; everyone always wants more and more is never enough. For example, in 2017, lobbyists gave Congress, government officials (including congressional staffers, the DNC and RNC, agency heads, etc ) $3.37 billion dollars not including perks like golf outings, hotels, use of private jets or cost of airfare, dinners, or help writing or summarizing legislation (along with their recommendations on how to vote), and so on.
Nevertheless, the mind boggling amounts of money and perks provided to Congress (and indirectly to the Judicial branch as well, not to mention the presidency) by lobbyists far outstrips what ordinary Americans can donate. In fact, it's practically made it impossible for the average American, who is often just as well educated and experienced as their multi-million dollar counterpart to run for office. As a result, we are forced to cast our votes for who may be the least qualified candidate, but certainly the richest.
Of course, primaries are all about the two corporate owned political parties choosing which puppet they'll put up for election. I liken it to a beauty contest among prostitutes (you can take it from there). General elections aren't much better. We're stuck with mostly one dimensional cardboard cutouts posing, glad handing, and pretending they're having a good time. It really comes down to whose meaningless populist platitudes we dislike the least. As far as their corporate paymasters are concerned, it doesn't really matter. They own them both. We're just picking figureheads while the media tries to make it into political reality show.
Think of the two corporate political parties this way. Corporations own it all. Money trumps everything. The two parties are both literally owned by the same corporate elites, but in slightly different configurations. Basically, it's one corporate syndicate comprising certain special interest groups versus another corporate syndicate with its special interest groups. Their agendas are similar, but ranked slightly different, but regardless, they work together to get did what their key players want done. The hubbub we see on TV or read about is usually over the crumbs and details.
For instance, both needed to weaken labor unions in order to make it harder for workers to fight back and to reduce costs, and so they did! Unions bosses went along in order to avoid seeing whole sectors either closed or moved overseas rather than a few plants or hundreds of jobs. Legislation was written, mostly in conjunction with the lobbyists, to provide tax breaks to underwrite the cost of jobs being sent overseas and return finished products sans import tariffs, all at taxpayer expense naturally. Want another example? Both politicians and their corporate overseers needed to artificially keep down unemployment numbers and boost the economy, and so now we have the eternal "War on Terror" to drain off "excess" job seekers while making a killing off of military contracts which affects a whole host of peripheral industries. Thus the economy grows, employment remains artificially high as we continue to operate at near wartime production rates.
Seriously, do you think that if they weren't working hand in glove? Why hasn't a tax code favoring working class Americans been written by now? That there hadn't been serious campaign finance reform and an end to corporate donations, as well as an end to gerrymandering and establishing term limits? With all those lawyers in Washington, do you really think those loopholes are accidents---legal "boo-boos"? Nah, those people are a lot of things, but stupid isn't one of them. How do you think they can pass laws which apply to us but not them? Why is it that out of a ten hour work day, the average Congressman spends only two hours working on bills and other issues and the other eight raising money?
Of course, the smartest thing they can do is to keep us divided, and they seem to be pretty good at that. They promote, albeit quietly, animosity between Left and Right, between races, between genders, between white collar and blue collar, and in every other way they can think of. Various groups are formed (and paid) to foment chaos in the form of inflammatory speeches or interviews, inciting riots and trying to silence anyone who disagrees with whatever their position happens to be. Meanwhile, there are arguments interjected to curtail this or that law or Constitutional Amendment which they claim will solve everything. The political center, where the majority of Americans live, is virtually ignored or even ridiculed by both political extremes and the media, even during general elections; once they gravitated toward the center during the general election and spun back to their respective extremes. Not anymore! Now they barely bother. It seems both camps have lost their fear of the electorate thanks in large part to Citizens United.
Meanwhile, the police are militarized and increasingly taught, even if unofficially, to view the public as the enemy, and to respond as such. The result is often excessive violence when a little patience would do. The courts, almost as a matter of course, find the police officers "innocent" and that ends the matter. That in turn results in individuals not trusting the police and either fighting back, running, or ignoring the police, and so the cycle repeats. At the same time, the corporate puppet masters use their influence to expand the monitoring of groups and individuals through social media and national intelligence agencies; to build not just individualized consumer buying profiles, manipulate and control content, but also to build profiles on potential resisters and independent thinkers who are not buying into the whole scam.
The media, of course, plays along and why not? As I previously reported, over 90% of all media--- TV, radio, social, newspaper, etc---is controlled by just six corporations. They decide what is and isn't news, manipulate the facts, decide how it will be spun, and above all, create public opinion. And if that isn't enough, they decide how we'll be entertained, be it sports, video games, game shows, movies, TV shows and so forth; much of which also containing subtle political content designed to influence our opinions on various subjects. More recently, some corporations like Nike and Levi Strauss have stepped directly into the political arena by promoting various issues or agendas so that sporting a certain look or product will now express or imply a particular political outlook. Perhaps the hope is to shame those who don't adhere to the same look through peer pressure.
Elections are controlled by keeping Independents, who are the nation's largest political bloc, as well as third parties off ballots. Why? Because they won't play the game. They can't and won't be controlled by corporate handlers. They also had a high degree of uncertainty to election outcomes, that means they can't count on either of their political puppets winning; someone with a different agenda or who will think independently might "accidentally" get elected and that must never be allowed to happen. That's because after Ross Perot ran for President in 1992 (and again in 1996) and did so well that he embarrassed both corporate candidates (Bill Clinton and George H.W. Bush) the DNC and RNC came together to amend the Commission for Presidential Debates to make it virtually impossible for Independents and third parties to qualify to participate (and many states followed suit).
Requirements to get any non-Democrat or GOPer on ballots were also set so high as to be nearly impossible, even though both parties know it would likely fail any Constitutional challenge. However, the problem of course is the costs to do so in court. Both parties are banking that no one will spend that kind of money to take the matter to court. In addition, the media, which is owned by the same corporate interests, have stopped treating Indies and third parties as "legitimate" candidates and also stopped covering their campaigns; treating them as sideshow entertainment and someone not to be taken seriously. Naturally, the big donors, who also happen to be these same corporations, ensure that their money keeps flowing to the two pre-approved candidates. The same goes for endorsements, which are valued for their cash and in-kind donations as well as for volunteers. Doesn't sound very much like a "free" country do it?
Lastly, I want to discuss something which, frankly, irks to no end, but I also think it's important for you to understand. As I mentioned before, there's a lot of effort being put into dividing us by the ruling Oligarchy. They don't want us to come together and peek behind the curtain so to speak. one of the ways they are trying to divide is by name calling. Specifically, by one side or the other being called "socialists", "Nazis", "Communists", "social democrats" or "fascists" as if the names and terms are interchangeable. They're not.
Socialism is the common ownership of the means of production by the workers. Think of it in terms of worker co-ops, ESOPs, credit unions, etc. Workers/employees come together to decide on how the business will be run, how much everyone will be paid and so on. In terms of government, committees are formed from these groups to decide how to manage the town, city, or community. Participation is not mandatory, but then you also don't get a voice if you don't Each committee elects someone to a larger committee to manage the larger state. Of course, there are other variations, but that's the general idea. Basically then, the workers/employees control the state through direct democracy.
Communism as we know it isn't Marxism as Karl Marx and Freidrich Engels wrote it. Communism as we know it was based on Stalin's corruption of both Marx and Lenin ideas. Thus, Communism came to be State ownership and control of everything---corporations, jobs, houses---you name it. You may be employed at some job, but your employer was the State, and the State was the party. You participated whether you wanted to or not. The State controls your life from cradle to grave. Democratic Socialism is something of a mix between the two, and despite claims to the contrary, it has been very successful in Scandinavia. Under democratic socialism, the State exists exclusively to serve the people, with the people approving what the States does through referendums or voting. While Communism is very undemocratic, democratic socialism is highly democratic while socialism is more communal. All of these are on the Left side of the political spectrum (although the Left/Right spectrum is completely out of date and not very accurate).
Nazism, which is short for National Socialist German Workers Party, is generally considered a far Right ideology, although that's not entirely correct. First it's nationalist whereas Communism is internationalist; in this case Germany or Germanic countries. It socialist, but not the way we think of socialism. It founder, Adolf Hitler, said that "socialism" for Germany meant a community of Germans only. Here, Hitler means "Aryans" or pure Germanic People. It also means creating an community of mutual support for Germans. In this, Hitler promoted a classless society between the old nobles and Junkers (the elites) and everyone else as well as distinctions between regions or occupations.
It meant equality between Catholics and Protestants, equality in hiring and education, promotion of similar ideals such as proper health, hygiene, and fitness. German Worker meant just that. German society would be dedicated to ordinary workers, artisans, craftsmen, farmers the same way it was to the banker, business owners, or academia. He dissolved individual unions, and created a single State union, the DAF or German Labor Front, into which everyone would belong. Of course, Hitler also choose the specific wording to attract as many people as possible away from the other political parties (his biggest political competitors was the Communist and Democratic Socialist parties on the Left, the Catholic Center Party, and the German National Peoples Party on the Right). Thus on our political spectrum, the Nazis would be more center Right than anything.
Lastly, Fascism. Modern Fascism was created by Italian dictator, Benito Mussolini. Essentially, it's a merger or partnership between the State and key corporate entities which cooperate for their mutual benefit. Individuals may work for a given company, but that company serves the State as its partner. The State operates along the lines of a corporate board of directors who elect their chairmen or President (in this case, Mussolini. In fact, in 1944, Mussolini was voted out of office by his Fascist board of directors). Like Nazism, Fascism borrows from the ideological Left and Right, but it varies depending on the history and tradition of that country. That's why the fascism of Italy was different from that of Bulgaria or Spain which was differed from that of Argentina or Hungary or Romania. Thus, Fascism can come from the Left or Right whereas Nazism is strictly conservative and socialism is strictly liberal.
The Oligarchy or plutocracy which controls our government now, and to a greater degree, much of world's economy, come closest to fitting the description of fascism than anything. It is very much the merger (or perhaps takeover is a better word) of the government for the sole purpose of controlling assets, resources, production, and yes, even us. They use our tax money as their own slush fund. They use our military as their own enforcers against nations who won't cooperate. We have been transformed from nationalist citizens to international consumers. Our loyalty is less to country and more to a product (ever notice how often commercials use words like "family", "trust", or "love"?). We are encouraged to buy the latest this or that and thus incur debt, which in turn becomes our shackles. We are their economic serfs or as some people prefer, "wage slaves".
The only way out of this is by not cooperating; not drinking the blue or red Kool-Aid they offer us during the election cycle. Supporting Indies and third parties, including demanding equal ballot access. By insisting that non-policy or lawmaking elected offices become non-partisan. By organizing employee associations or cooperatives. Changing your voter registration to Independent or third party. By finding common ground to bring diverse groups together. By demanding a voice when it comes to raising taxes, rate hikes, fees, or salaries for elected officials. By becoming more economically independent like shopping local, buying at farmer markets, growing your own garden, installing a rain barrow, solar panels, home schooling, and so on. By ignoring news media endorsements and doing your own research. Seeking out alternative media. They are beatable although they try to convince us otherwise. All we have to do is refuse to cooperate and to think and act for ourselves. But in a fascist state, even a benign one, that can be a dangerous thing.

Alan Fred Titchmarsh, MBE, DL, HonFSE is an English gardener, presenter, poet, and novelist. After working as a professional gardener and a gardening journalist, he established himself as a media personality through appearances on gardening programmes. He has developed a diverse writing and broadcasting career.
AN INTERVIEW WITH ALAN TITCHMARSH
By Rachael Funnell - May 9, 2017
Alan Titchmarsh has been one of the most prolific gardening authors of the last 20 years and shares his thoughts on books he has written and books he admires
An interview with Alan Titchmarsh:
Which gardening book left the deepest impression on you when you were starting your gardening career?
The first ever gardening book I remember was Beatrix Potter's The Tale of Peter Rabbit. I've been looking for the tricolor pelargonium that Mr McGregor's boot kicked over ever since! My dad gave me an old copy of Simple Gardening by R.P.Faulkner that my mum's dad had given him when he took over the family allotment, but the first book I ever bought was Percy Thrower's Encyclopedia of Gardening when I was about thirteen years old. It was a straightforward book that answered so many of my questions back in the early 1960s. I never imagined that one day I would become Percy's editor.
What can you remember about writing your first book?
The first gardening book I wrote came about by default. The person who was meant to write it let down the editor at Hamlyn's (I had just left Kew and become an assistant editor of gardening books at Hamlyn). He asked if I would write it instead. It was called Gardening Under Cover and my wife took the photograph of me for the back of the jacket. I was tremendously thrilled at getting into print between hard covers!
Which of your gardening books are you most proud of?
I'm proud of How to be a Gardener: Secrets of Success, which accompanied a BBC television series I presented about really basic gardening. I wanted to present a programme that started off assuming no basic knowledge at all for those who felt that Gardeners' World was too advanced. It became the fastest-selling gardening book of all time, which is rather a nice boast. The book I love most is My Secret Garden which I wrote about the home garden I have made over the last fifteen years. It is a really personal record of the garden in which I live and Jonathan Buckley's photographs are wonderful.
What is the most well-thumbed gardening book on your bookshelf?
The Royal Horticultural Society A-Z of Garden Plants is always by my writing desk and I couldn't do without it. It offers both inspiration and advice and reminds me of how many plants I have yet to grow!
Which author do you most admire?
I enjoy the writings of Christopher Lloyd and Beth Chatto, both of whom have been great friends to me, and Robin Lane Fox's books are always thought provoking.
If you were asked to write a monograph, which plant genus would you choose?
I would be totally unable to make up my mind. It would be between digitalis, geranium, pelargonium, flowering cherries, hellebores, tulips, peonies. Mercifully most of them have been done!
If you had to choose between writing fiction or writing about gardening, which would you choose?
That's like asking a parent to say which child they like best. It is not a choice I have to make! But I am a gardener first and foremost and I love enthusing others about my passion.
Can we expect any more books from you soon, gardening or otherwise?
I am committed to another two novels over the next three years, and I am in discussion about non-fiction. So I'm still tapping away at the laptop and hoping that someone, somewhere, will want to read what I have written.

I'm getting ready to go to my first ALA conference and I've spent a good part of it staring in confusion at all the acronyms. I know they're useful but most of them are just close enough to leave me unsure of what I'm looking at.
Absolutely. However, it can be a good networking conversation starter. See an acronym on a ribbon that you don't know (or can pretend you don't know): "Oh, ABDCLMNOP? What's that?"
Sometimes I'm not sure which I detest more: initialisms or acronyms. Especially when people use those acronyms in meetings and those acronyms sound like actual words. Or, say, when I realize that I'm mispronouncing an acronym that I've only ever seen written.
Yes, that is the standard rule in technical writing. And if you've got something with a lot of text and multiple sections that people might be skipping around in, you would spell it out at the beginning of each section. I think about this every time I mention the MLA (Massachusetts Library Association) to my professorial friends, who have their own (much bigger) MLA.
Yes! It instantly creates and insider/outsider culture. This was incredibly difficult when I was a newbie librarian and frankly, it's still pretty tricky and now I'm in the "should know by now" group, as is the message that "we're doing the same thing we did last year" and forgetting how many people weren't here last year or maybe just forgot because of the 9 billion other things they were doing.

Urging Pima County to buy, protect open lands
By CAROLYN CAMPBELL
Tucson Citizen
Scientists, environmental advocates and community members have long cherished the rich biological resources of Tucson's Northwest Side.
The lush, old growth ironwood-saguaro forests also have made it a desirable place to live.
This area gained particular attention when the cactus ferruginous pygmy owl was listed as an endangered species in the late 1990s. This tiny owl, and the protection of its habitat, was the impetus for Pima County's visionary Sonoran Desert Conservation Plan.
Arizona is now the fastest growing state in the United States, with a population of more than 1 million in Pima County alone.
In response to the increasing population and loss of open space, Pima County has held two successful open space bond elections in the past decade to preserve habitat and add to its parks.
Both the 1997 and 2004 open space bonds specifically identified lands on the Northwest Side to acquire and funds were allocated for a number of these Sonoran Desert old-growth forest parcels.
To date, Pima County has yet to spend the balance of the 1997 open space bond funds allocated for the Northwest Side. While we wait, the purchasing power of our 1997 bond dollars continues to depreciate relative to land prices.
The bulk of our 2004 open space bond dollars have been used to purchase outlying ranches for $2,000 to $3,000 per acre. These have been tremendous acquisitions, especially because of their accompanying grazing leases, now held by the county, on large expanses of biologically important state lands.
Because of the county's diligence and success in negotiating with these willing sellers, however, few opportunities remain to buy large private parcels.
Northwest Tucson in particular lacks large, privately-owned, undeveloped parcels of land. Virtually the only blocks larger than 40 acres anywhere in the Tortolita Fan are state trust lands.
But unless and until state trust land policies are reformed to allow for conservation, the State Land Department is mandated to maximize profit for the trust – they must sell for development, not conservation.
This leaves a mosaic of smaller, more expensive parcels to connect to the larger blocks of existing habitat to help maintain ecosystem function.
Can we achieve conservation on the Northwest Side without acquisition of these smaller, more isolated patches of high quality habitat? No, unfortunately we cannot, as our options are too limited.
With bond ordinance language forbidding condemnation, lack of willing sellers on many of the identified parcels, the failure of Proposition 106 to achieve state trust land reform, and the passage of Proposition 207 with its strong regulatory takings language, the county's options to protect this area are few.
This makes conservation there both challenging and costly. For more than a decade, prices on the Northwest Side have been consistently higher than in other areas of Pima County.
But because of the remarkable diversity and significant habitat of this area, Pima County officials, on recommendations from conservation biologists and a citizens committee, specifically designated many of these smaller private parcels as "high priority" in the 2004 open space bond.
And the voters approved, fully understanding that not all biologically critical parcels are priced equally.
Tuesday, the Board of Supervisors has a unique opportunity to show its commitment to implementation of the Sonoran Desert Conservation Plan – and to the county's Science Technical Advisory Team, wildlife biologists, the conservation community and Pima County voters – with the acquisition of more than 33 acres – from willing sellers – in this remarkable part of Pima County.
We urge the board to vote to protect these biologically important lands.
Carolyn Campbell is executive director of the Coalition for Sonoran Desert Protection.

Finding Spotify Media Player
On this put up, I'll share 10 SaaS concepts that you would build in 2021 and which have the potential to turn into worthwhile merchandise! Eventually even turn it into your full-time mission. What's particular about this challenge is that it captures the artist's extremely various mindset, pushing him to stretch the boundaries of his creativity and explore types as diverse as melodic trap, and contemporary hip-hop. The point of all of this is to cut back the ability of a user to redistribute the content, and this will successfully cut back the share of customers who have the hardware and software to perform this, limiting the number of customers to a handful you may manually deal with. In case you want even more music to soundtrack your procrastination, there's additionally a brand new Music Friday UK playlist that ties in with the official UK chart, that includes a handful of tracks from new albums and single releases as well as notifications of recent releases out of your favourite artists utilizing the 'What's New' function. This is more of a forensics factor, and I'm a frontend developer. Music additionally contains a brand new "Listen Now" tab that replaces the "For You" tab with better ideas for new music, an autoplay function that plays related music when a playlist ends, improved search that showcases music by style and mood, and library filtering so you can find your favourite content extra rapidly.
2. Tap the "Your Library" tab at the bottom of the screen. Users can simply document their screen within the case of video, their system's audio output within the case of audio, and many others. You won't be able to detect that. On the desktop consumer for Windows users can use a hyperlink to buy music instantly from retailers. I know why Windows 10 S is taken into account the default on these low-finish methods. Aside from Slacker Radio, Nokia New music, a number of apps that play electronic streams of terrestrial radio, and office 2010 skilled plus own baked in New music app, all have been peaceful over the Windows entrance. While Hue bulbs might already strobe and pulse with music with help from varied third-party apps and a microphone, Hue's new Spotify integration makes use of timestamped metadata on every monitor to "anticipate" the beats, as well as an algorithm that creates a "light script" based on the song's mood, style, and tempo.

As the madness at Shea Stadium was unfolding Tuesday afternoon, one of the Mets beat writers smiled and said, ?Schuerholz must be howling right now.?
Knowing that Braves general manager John Schuerholz wouldn?t loosen up enough to even let me know he?d laughed when he learned ?El Duque? was hurt, I just said, ?Nah? and then went out in the hallway to call Turner Field.
As our conversation regarding the Braves' coaching changes was nearing its end, I asked Schuerholz, ?So are you enjoying the Mets? follies?? Without surprise, he responded with, ?I don?t wish ill will toward anybody.?
Yeah, but this isn?t just anybody. These are the Mets, the team that ended the Braves' run of 14 consecutive division titles this year. For five months, there was plenty of reason to believe they?d also do something the Braves haven?t this decade — advance to the World Series.
In fact, for about the first four hours Willie Randolph was at Shea Stadium on Tuesday, there was legitimate reason for him to confidently hold that belief. But then Orlando Hernandez went for a jog that consequently caused Randolph to begin his media session with: ?Before we get into everything, I have some news.?
The news was that El Duque had injured his right calf and the response was ?Well, what are you going to do now, Willie?? It was exactly one week ago that Pedro Martinez proved his health issues extended beyond a pulled calf muscle. So now the Mets manager may be forced to go for Option No. 3 in Game 1 of the National League Division Series.
Having started just three days ago, Tom Glavine never seriously became the third option for Game 1. Instead, these not-so-mighty-anymore Mets were forced to choose between John Maine and Dave Williams. Hey, things could be worse. They could have listed Oliver Perez in that list of options.
Barring an unforeseen miraculous recovery by Hernandez, Maine is likely to take the mound on Wednesday to make his first career postseason appearance. Based on the 15 walks he?s issued in his last 28 1/3 innings, it can be assumed the pressure will lead him to resume his recent control problems.
When I got to New York yesterday, I started crunching all the numbers to give me the ability to feel like I actually knew what was going to happen during this Division Series. Factoring in a healthy Hernandez, I still gained the belief that the Dodgers would win this series in four games.
A quick comparison of the lineups might lead one to assume the Mets have the better lineup. But statistically over the final two months, the Dodgers have been much better offensively. If you want to erase September, when the Mets were seemingly sleepwalking, you?ll still find Los Angeles? offense was just as impressive in August.
With this Hernandez injury added to the mix, there?s no doubt the Dodgers have the better pitching staff. It?s one that has seen steady improvement since the acquisition of Greg Maddux, who I believe was the best pitching coach the Braves have had in Atlanta over the past two decades.
Oliver Perez is one thing. You didn't happen to see Jose Lima hanging around the ballpark, did you?
THROW OUT YOUR STATS!!! I have Faith that Maine is up to the task! What better way for a Rookie to solidify his position in the rotation in this challenging Game?
At the end of the day it's all guess work. They still play the game between the lines and anything can happen. Throwing a rookie in to pitch isn't all that bad, we did it the last time we were in town and look what happened !! You'll see him again on Thursday !!
I believe in my team !!
Gary's right. The wonderful thing about this game is that we should always expect the unexpected but are surprised when it happens. Players perform differently in the post season. Some thrive unexpectedly, others don't unexpectedly. Never underestimate anyone, rookie or not. Hoping for a great series and the winner of this one going to the World Series. GO DODGERS!!!
As a life long Mets Fan, I have to say that we are used to this type of excitement. It seems that they always find themselves behind the 8-ball. With all this happening, I'm still confident the Mets can pull it out . . . I can see it now, Game 4 in LA, Reyes hits a slow roller down the first base line, right between the wickets of Garciaparra . . . the Mets go on to win Game 4 and then take game 5 of the NLDS back at Shea . . . after all it's the 20th Anniversary of the 86 World Series . . . hey, it may not be original, but I?ll take any help at this point. Seriously, I think that the Mets pitching is strong enough to keep them in the game for 5-6 innings bridging to the bullpen. As for the bats, they will be there . . . Reyes, LoDuca, Betran, Wright, Delgado, Valentin . . . there is a lot of power there! They will need to hit early and often to win. It?s going to be AMAZING and if all else fails we can hope for another Miracle!
What the **** was jd drew thinking? has anyone heard from him? what no press conference?

Congratulations to the Class of 2014
Brand South Africa urges Class of 2014 to Play Their Part in building our country
Top performers in the 2014 national matriculation exams at the announcement of the results on 5 January 2015.
Johannesburg, Tuesday 6 January 2015 – Brand South Africa congratulates all the Class of 2014 for successfully concluding their formal school careers. We wish the matriculants well as they pursue opportunities beyond the walls of their schools and urge them to play their part to positively contribute towards building our country.
South Africa has produced sterling examples of how dynamic, tenacious and inspiring young people can play their part to fly our national flag beyond our shores including, amongst others, Mandla Maseko who is the first black South African astronaut as well as Siya Xuza who has had a minor planet named after him by NASA based on his ground-breaking work. A little piece of South Africa lives in space through the planet named Siyaxuza.
South African's such as Siya and Mandla show us why it is critical that the National Development Plan be implemented with haste since all young people in our country must be empowered to achieve their full potential which will contribute to our country's global competitiveness and reputation.
The NDP has adopted a "youth lens" in preparing its proposals to ensure young people become active, contributing citizens and will see young people receiving quality education – particularly around maths and science programmes, skills transfer and training.
The NDP also prioritises leadership as a pillar our country's growth and development. The building of leaders begins at the foundation stages of a child's life and the education system as well as the community must be part of this process. Leaders are not built by governments rather by families and communities. How can we therefore play our part to ensure that we nurture the development of leaders in, amongst others, our homes, communities, workplaces? This is something that all South Africans must begin to reflect on.
To the class of 2015, Brand South Africa encourages you to take up the challenge to improve upon the 2014 matric results and to grow the skills base that South Africa has to offer. We wish you luck in the year ahead and urge to seize all the opportunities this county has to offer.

The Politics of Urban Space...
What exactly is the mode of existence of social relationships? ...The study of space offers an answer according to which the social relations of production have a social existence to the extent that they have a spatial existence; they project themselves into a space, becoming inscribed there, and in the process producing that space itself – Henri Lefebvre.
There Goes the Neighbourhood is the ironic chorus to the 1992 Body Count song which lamented the invasion of the once poor (and Black) into the neighbourhood of the rich (and white). But an alternative destruction of "The Neighbourhood" can happen when the poor get pushed out of their local community as part of the process of gentrification. This issue is particularly relevant for the suburb of Redfern, an inner city suburb of Sydney which has been home for a large working class and Indigenous community, and which is undergoing a process of rapid development and change.
The Block, Redfern, has been described as the "Black Heart" of Australia and occupies a unqiue place within Sydney's urban landscape as a centre for the Indigenous community. It was the site for the Aboriginal Tent Embassy, and has been the gathering point for many protests and community events. Just minutes from the second busiest train station in Sdyney are the open camp fires and communal use of public space of the community on The Block. Redfren is also home to a number other non-Indigenous community housing projects such as the Department of Housing buildings (known as the "Suicide Towers") which the government is trying to redevelop. The suburb was once a strong working class neighbourhood and was the starting point for the 1917 general strike for a shorter working week: but in the 1980s the rail yards were closed down and transformed into a new cultural centre (where one of the exhibition venues Performance Space is based). Redfern grabbed headlines in 2004 when riots erupted when a 17 year old Aboriginal boy died after police chased him as he rode his push-bike home. In that same year the Redfern-Waterloo Authority was established - a special government committee to oversee the rapid development and gentrification of the area. Redfern thus involves a complex, contested and controversial overlapping of uses of urban space.
There Goes the Neighborhood is an exhibition, residency, discussion and publishing project for May 2009. The central element of this project will be an exploration of the politics of urban space. It will explore the complex life of cities and how the phenomenon of gentrification is altering the relationship between democracy and demography around the world. While urban change itself is not always a bad thing, gentrification often happens at an accelerated rate, out pricing the lower income and marginalized communities from the neighbourhood and dislocating them from their existing connections to urban space.
As Henri Lefebvre reminds us "the social relations of production have a social existence to the extent that they have a spatial existence; they project themselves into a space, becoming inscribed there, and in the process producing that space itself". The tussle over space is always one over the social relationships which are generated within the logic of place: revolving around people occupying, owning, seizing, developing, losing or transforming this space.
The project will bring together a smallish group of artists who have worked in various artistic projects which have explored the relationship between community and space and invite them to develop these issues further in the contested local environment of Redfern.

Beware- this school is discriminatory based on race. Poor academics and VERY unsafe environment.
Submitted by a parent
Our experience was horrid, but it's not just this school. LAUSD stop cowtowing to the lawsuits and actually care about your students.
Amazing. Nice staff and teachers. The children nice and happy
I just want to say that the lack of reviews over the last year is an indication that things have been very bad. Greatschools.org flags negative reviews and they don't get posted. I'm really hopeful that with the loss of our principal, the culture of bullying will finally die. The principal is the head of leadership and when she, herself, is a bully, the teachers feel emboldened and backed up to bully, as well. The children deserve to have a better developmental experience than what they're getting from their teachers. The new principal will have to do a lot of damage control and work hard to win the trust and money of the families again. This has to be done with understanding of our painful experiences and respect for what we bring to the table.

I appreciate all the school tries to accomplish. No school, whether private or public, will ever achieve all the goals of the different families coming together. I really think feedback is heard and the principal is great. Yes, I've had rough moments (I have a boy) but the environment is nurturing. I hate testing, but that is public school for you!
My son started Kindergarten this year and he couldn't be happier. The teachers, admin, students and parents are all wonderful. There is a real sense of community with this school. My son has learned so much and really likes his teachers and everyone at the school. The older kids all seem very respectful of the adults and the younger kids. I do agree with others on drop off being ridiculous. Twice (within 2 weeks) now I have witnessed a kid almost being run over when running across the crosswalk in the morning. Most of the younger kids are too short to see- please have an adult help your child cross the street especially when everyone is in a hurry to get to work!
I will agree with many of the parents here about the academics. The teachers here are quick to recognize an advanced student and if there are any dips in the grades, will immediately bring it to the attention of the parents. Pick up here since the bomb scare, has become even worse than it was. You now have to enter to the back side where the residents accesses to their homes have completely been compromised. I just witnessed a parent, yelling at other parents (including profanity) and further harassing another WHECES parent by photographing their car. Pick up is bad enough and this man who was chit chatting with two other women, at the gate, decided to walk across to yell at the parents in their cars. I can't believe, as a parent of a child at WHECES, I just witnessed this behavior and I feel terrible for the parent who was picking up. Add all this to the other two cars this man yelled at, 2 other parents got out to yell at this parent picking up who had a bit of her car (back right fender) in the cross walk. I sat in my car across the street, embarrassed for the parents yelling at another WHECES parent being belittled in front of our children. This is NOT what we are teaching our children in this school and like the sign in the front of the school says "Your children are watching you". Very sad to see that the parents of this school treating other WHECES parents this way. We are all trying to get oriented with new pick up routine and yelling is not helping.
I'd have to agree with the previous reviewer who gave a great assessment of the school. We transferred here this year. Yes, there is an overkill of rules. But it's nice to see so much school spirit. Academically, I feel my child is in capable hands here; I would agree that the homework level is heavy--but, it matches the homework level from our previous school from a different district, so it just seems to be the way things are going in general with education. But what has really thrown me--and my child--off is how unreceptive the children have been in including "the new kid." I'd describe the kids as "polite," but strangely uncurious, and in sealed-tight social circles. My child can sit by them, but they will ignore. The only 2 children my child has felt welcomed by are...2 other new kids! Now, it's only been 3 months, so we'll have to see how things go. But this is how our year has started.
Here's the pros and cons of WHECS. It has a reputation for high performance. As a parent of 2 children in WHECS, I personally wanted my children to be pushed to a degree. However, if your children are younger, or mentally younger, their love of school & learning will be affected if they're pushed too hard. Expect to be pushed. Depending on your child's grade level, teacher, especially, if their SAS, they'll be expected to have a great deal of homework & stress (for U & them)! Students are expected to be young adults already. Children need more fun time & time to get out their built up energy. Don't expect your child to get those things here. More parents complain about that than any other area, with too much home work coming in at second place, then drop off/pick up. The Principal pushes our teachers very hard to perform & is constantly in the class observing & micro managing. That too can be extremely stressful which then affects the students. Some parents come to this school with high expectations & find that WHECS is not what they'd hoped for. It's not a bad school by any means. Most of the teachers really do care & work hard for your children. The staff in the front office ARE NOT friendly nor very helpful. As long as you know that & expect that, then you won't be surprised. WHECS does have a strong parent evolvement. For the most part, the PATT is a very positive force. However, you'll find it's always the same parents giving & giving & giving with "little to no" appreciation from those who do nothing. PATT's slogan is if "everyone gave a little, then no one would have to give a lot." Powerful words to live by, but the majority of the parents, unfortunately DO NOT participate.. The negative side of the PATT is many cliques, constantly asking for $, & their fundraiser's are endless. Wish the $ was going toward more important areas. WHECS has many rules & many new ones being added. PLEASE be advised, most are reasonable & for the students safety, then there's the ones that simply make no sense. For pick up/drop off: as long as you know the in's and out's - this is one of the easier school's to maneuver. Too many "ME type" parents expect the world to revolve around them & make the process harder. I personally feel there's too many lottery students let in - which means larger class sizes, less personal attention! Not good!
My daughter has attended kindergarten through second grade so far at the school. We could not be happier with her and our experience. My daughter is very bright but also sensitive. The academics are very challenging (which is wonderful), and at the same time the school has taken care to ensure that she has a teacher that best suits her. All of her teachers have been wonderfully caring. The parents are very involved with the school. It is a wonderful community. I could not recommend the school highly enough.
