Camesquat 2016 – 'First Three Days'
"In light of the [September 2016] Occupation of Camelot's former London HQ, Some of us who turned up to support the occupiers during the two day siege of the building thought a brief synopsis of events may be of interest."
Lessons on Working Together from Tobocman's "War in the Neighborhood"
Ad Astra Comix have written an exclusive blog for SQUASH, as they gear up to re-release Seth Tobocman's classic 'War in the Neighborhood', a graphic novel about anti-gentrification resistance in New York's Lower East Side, in the late 80s/early 90s. The article highlights one the comic's key themes, the challenge of living together under the intense pressure of radical occupation, relevant today as ever.
Squatting Stats 2015 version 2 released
Original report, "Squatting Statistics 2015″ has been updated as Version 2.0 with additional information on: 1] Prosecutions & Convictions for section 144 & "Begging": Analysis of Ministry of Justice Criminal Justice statistics, released 19 May 2016 2] Crime Related Incidents (CRI): Greater Manchester Police submitted information about "squatting" CRIs in 2015, providing useful background on Alternative Offences, and evidence of vulnerable adults & children squatting.
Squatting & Criminalisation in the Netherlands
On the 11th June 2016, ETC Dee gave a presentation at the DeCentre space in Whitechapel, entitled "Squatting in the Netherlands". The talk looked at well-known squats & social centres, the 2010 law criminalising squatting and its impact, and finally a history of squatting in the Netherlands. Both the Netherlands and England&Wales have a long squatting history, and both recently had squatting criminalised by their respective right-wing governments. However, there are key differences too: all squatting was criminalised in Holland, and only residential in England&Wales; Holland criminalised squatting two years before England&Wales, and the Dutch government appears more inclined to imprison squatters.
"Options for dealing with squatting" by Persons Unknown
Dog Section Press has put together a sample of responses from the 2011 Ministry of Justice consultation on squatting into a nifty little booklet entitled "Options for dealing with squatting" by Persons Unknown. The booklet has a good selection of quotes (both pro- and anti-squat), a well-written introduction, and is the only diverse sample of the 2,000+ responses to the consultation.
Film: Living History at Crossroads Women's Centre
What the "Living History at Crossroads Women's Centre" (2015) documentary makes clear the importance of squatting, the act of taking wasted space to meet social needs. Without this simple act, Crossroads Women's Centre would never have been able to help the many thousands of women they have assisted over the years.
#SupportYourLocalSquats – Charles Edward Brooke secondary school
Housing Action Southwark and Lambeth (HASL) have initiated a campaign to #SupportYourLocalSquats, specifically those currently occupying the former Charles Edward Brooke secondary school in Lambeth, south London. The building has been empty for over two years, and the owners (St Gabriel's College) are applying for an Interim Possession Order (IPO, or fast-track eviction) this Tuesday 12 January 2015.

Runnymede Eco-Village in Epic Court Battle – Sept 2015
Runnymede is in court, making a constitutional case for why they should remain in occupation. Like all possession cases, the law is rigged in favour of the land-title holders in the interests of that sacred cow, private property. However, the legal team for Runnymede are putting together a bold case, that references a whole gamut of law (common, European, Human and Constitutional), that hits at the heart of land-relations in this time of modern enclosure.

Resist the Eviction of Yorkley Court Farm – from 1pm, 12 March onwards
Yorkley Court is a land-based occupation on the edge of the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire that has been running as a community farm for almost three years now. It is one of a network of land squats across the country, such as Grow Heathrow (London), Runnymede (Windsor) and Rising Up (Bristol) which are protecting land from unnecessary development and at the same time, engaging in sustainable farming and off-grid living. Yorkley Court, after two years of active campaigning, legal challenges and land defence, is now facing imminent eviction from 1pm, Thursday 12 March 2015 onwards; they will not be leaving quietly, but they also need serious support if they are going to stay put.
Happy Birthday Grow Heathrow – 28th Feb 2015
Grow Heathrow will be celebrating their 5th year as a squat and community project; the party starts Friday 27th February and ends Sunday 1st March, with the main celebration on Saturday.

Call-out for Volunteers – SQUASH
With the increased activity around squatting over the past few months, Squatters Action for Secure Homes (SQUASH) is calling for volunteers to help with a campaign push running up to the General Elections in May and beyond. There are a number of areas to help with, and all help will be greatly appreciated. Read more….
Urgent – Help Save the 12 Bar, Soho
The squatted 12 Bar in Soho is now the frontline against the complete redevelopment of the West End and Soho. Having executed a brilliant open-mic last Friday (with acts like the Bohemianauts, and Smiley and the Underlass), they are now up in court on Wednesday, facing an Interim Possession Order (IPO) on the building. At an open community meeting on Monday night, ex-employees of the 12 Bar, local workers, students, activists, bohemians and supporters came together to discuss how we could save this culturally significant venue from being demolished. Resist, Occupy, Win!
Squatters Bloc at March for Homes – Sat 31st January
Defend Council Housing and South London People's Assembly called the "March for Homes" last year, setting a date for Saturday, 31st January 2015. While there was a slow take-up at first, more groups are now getting involved. The Radical Housing Network endorsed the march a few weeks ago, and squatters are organising a squat bloc for the big day. Spread it, network it, get down there.

A Christmas Tale: the Gauntlett Inquiry
The following is a report on the Kent Coroner's Inquest into the Death of Daniel Gauntlett, who froze to death outside an empty cottage in 2013; it comprises an analysis of the inquest findings, based on notes taken during the inquest and supplemented by additional research. The Coroner's verdict of "self-neglect" is wrong; it may be better to attribute it to "purposeful neglect by the state". Daniel's story is an insight into the conditions faced by the growing street homeless population in Britain today.
Kent Coroner's Inquest into the Death of Daniel Gauntlett
The Kent Coroner's Office will be holding an inquest into the death of Mr Gauntlett, and key questions they will need to answer are: "Was s144 LASPO to blame for Daniel Gauntlett's death?", and if so, "Did the state contravene his Article 2 right, namely his Right to Life?". As s144 LASPO falls apart at the seams (providing proof of "living" or "intending to live"), this human rights angle could see the nail in the coffin for Weatherley's Law. Venue: The Coroner's Office, Archbishops Palace, Mill Street, Maidstone, ME15 6YE Date: Wednesday, 10th December 2014 Time: 1:30pm

ALERT & Update: Attempt to criminalise squatting in commercial
Some backbenchers in Parliament have tried but seemingly failed to amend the Criminal Justice and Courts Bill to include the criminalisation of squatting in commercial premises and on land. The attempt took place on the 12th May, and as far as SQUASH can see, the hearing was adjourned before the question of amendment 34 could be pushed to a vote or withdrawn. SQUASH and other squatting groups are taking this seriously. We will be looking into this underhand attempt to further criminalise squatting, and report back as soon as we know more. Please be ready to act once we have ascertained whether this is a real threat or opportunistic politiking.

SQUASH EXCLUSIVE: "Squatting the frontline" by John McDonnell MP
Article by John McDonnell, Labour MP for Hayes and Harlington, on squatting and Britain's housing crisis, reproduced from an article in the latest STRIKE! Magazine (Autumn 2013).

(SQUASH): So… first things first… what made you decide to squat? (Tony): I had to… my landlord turned weird on me & I had to get out fast… I also had no deposit (Eva): I left home when I was 16 and was housed for 4 months in emergency accommodation in a bedsit with a broken lock. Then I was housed in a house for vulnerable women. However the other women living there had mental health […]
Park Street Occupation, Southwark
Housing activists have occupied a property 21 & 23 Park Street, just off Borough market which was owned by Southwark council. The building which has been derelict for ages, basically falling apart with just scaffolding to keep it up, was auctioned with a starting price of £2.3 million and sold for £2.9 million, making it the most expensive council house sold. The occupation is also a challenge to section 114 of the Legal Aid Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act (LASPO) introduced last September which criminalised squatting in residential properties. Blog includes links to Our Media and Mainstream Media (MSM) articles on the occupation.

Anti-squatting laws and the coming crackdown on occupations
A letter in today's Guardian voices the concerns of unionists, students and MPs about possible new squatting laws. Here's the full story. It's been less than a year since it became a criminal offence to take shelter in abandoned residential buildings, but it appears that the government is concerned that they haven't yet caused enough misery and distress to homeless people. It's looking increasingly likely that new proposals to extend the criminalisation of squatting to non-residential properties may be brought forward by the end of the year. As well as the disastrous impacts that this will have on those who […]

Anti-Squatting Law Challenged in Brighton Court
A major test of Section 144 occurred today in a Brighton Magistrate's Court – with the criminalisation of squatting dealt a serious blow. Three people faced the charges of squatting in a residential property under Section 144 of LASPO, and obstruction of a police officer. They were arrested on 3rd September 2012, just two days after Section 144's passage into law, in a high-profile eviction by police. All three were found to have no case to answer for obstruction of a police officer, whilst two were found to have no case to answer for the squatting charge. The case continues […]
The Evening Standard is Lying to London
Last Wednesday, activists from the Squash campaign inserted 8000 leaflets into the Evening Standard, in an attempt to redress the deliberate misinformation being pumped out by this media mischief-maker.

40 top lawyers sign Guardian anti-squatting law repeal letter
The letter reads: It is just over six months since the offence of squatting in a residential building came into force. At the time the offence was proposed, government sources claimed it was necessary as the law "does not support police acting when there are squatters in someone's home" and that "there are no powers to throw them out". The signatories to this letter include many of the 160 lawyers who wrote to the Guardian (26 September 2011) pointing out that, as a matter of law, those statements were wrong, as such powers did exist and had done so since […]
The Evening Standard Hates Romanians
Here we go again. Yet another foul, bordering-on-racist article in the Evening Standard, who quite clearly hate all squatters and it seems all Eastern Europeans – especially Romanians. Friday's article on new figures released via an FOI request submitted to the Metropolitan Police (our first request was turned down when we were writing our report) claims that 45% of all squatters arrested in London, since the introduction of new legislation which criminalised squatting in residential properties last September, are from Romania. It is unsurprising that migrants who will not have English as a first language are being adversely affected by […]

Court case won by former Friern Barnet Library activists
The Friern Barnet Library Activists have moved on to a new project in Enfield Borough in an attempt to fight austerity, homelessness and unjust squatting laws. The community activists who were previously caretakers of the Friern Barnet Library, are now residing at the Arnos Family Resource Centre (ARC). They won their court case against Enfield Council on the 11th of March 2013 at the Barnet County Court. Many of the activists arrived at court to defend the case being brought forward by Enfield Council for possession of the property. They were accompanied by several members of the Friern Barnet community […]

SQUASH launch new report in Parliament
The event marked the launch of SQUASH's 6-month report and impact analysis of section 144 of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act (LASPO). It provided an opportunity to discuss what the MP's, Lords, lawyers and academics could do to help, and highlight Mike Weatherley's Early Day Motion (EDM) looking to extend criminalisation to commercial premises. Speaking were SQUASH, Crisis, Tuckers Solicitors and the Simon Community.
New report has been launched HERE
Section 144 (S144) of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Bill (LASPO) came into force on September 1st 2012. SQUASH, concerned about the lack of an impact analysis of the law's effect, has decided to investigate, analyse and evaluate the direct and indirect consequences of S144.
Criminalising squatting, empty homes and property guardianship
Despite a lack of direct legislative support, property guardianship has grown sharply in the last 5 years, so that now there are at least nineteen different property guardian companies offering their services to private landlords and local authorities, with the major active players the Dutch companies Camelot and Ad Hoc. Guardian companies can set restrictive limitations on licensees, such as that they are not allowed to have children, be unemployed, become 'intentionally' unemployed, or in receipt of state benefit, and screen applicants for those who are "deserving" rather than in need. Property guardianship crosses boundaries between housing, employment and prison; it is a scam of epic proportion.

A Polite Revolution
In Friern Barnet, local people and Occupy activists came together to fight back against government cuts. The local library, which like thousands up and down the country faced closure in the name of austerity, was squatted for 5 months, restocked with books from donations, and reopened by the Occupiers and the community. The council has now agreed to hand back the keys to the community. Here's an short film of this inspiring story, which goes to show that squatting can indeed be good for society.

Squatters save Friern Barnet Library
At midday today, exactly five months since the occupation began, the community of Barnet took possession of the Friern Barnet Library. The local community – represented by the trustees of the library – are on the verge of agreeing a two-year lease with Barnet Council (LBB) to run the library with some funding from the council. At the ceremony, squatters and supporters of the Occupy movement, who have been keeping the building open and enabling the local community to run a book lending service and community centre in the building, will hand it over to the trustees of the newly […]
Spanish Locksmiths Unite Against Evictions

Waste of Space at the 491
Many empty and wasted buildings have been turned into vibrant, open and useful spaces over the years – but the clamour for criminalisation of squatting in commercial properties has already begun.

Richard Madeley Reaction # 2
In his failure to look beyond the uninformed words of the association mouth-piece, Madeley replicated the mistakes which led to this damning law coming about. "The current law is sufficient to protect homeowners, but is not understood by the public, the police, nor, it seems, politicians" stated the Law Society in consultation.

There are currently 385,000 people under 25 claiming housing benefit across the UK. Many of these people work, or are looking for work, others are sick or disabled and more than half are parents bringing up children – all of them depend on housing benefit to keep a roof over their head.

Contains stories on the following: discussion in the MSM about extending criminalisation to commercial property, the squatted, the emerging housing crisis in B&B accommodation, rising rents and falling benefits, and the poor state of accommodation in the private rented sector, and communal living as housing solution.
How the "Co-Operative Council" is destroying housing co-ops
Lambeth Council is at an advanced stage of flogging off the last of its "short life" properties to private property developers. Evictions of the people in them are starting next month and those emptied are being sold at auction.
An Organised Gang Drove Off With My House of Commons!!
In the rubble of this market failure is the well hidden reality of abundance. But if we treat houses like cars, instead of essential things that we all need and must find a way of managing fairly, we give people the incentive to steal them.
SQUASH NewsRound: October 2012
The News Round will be a fortnightly event, keeping tabs on articles being posted in MainStream Media (MSM) sources, as well as independent channels (eg IMC, SchNEWS) about squatting, the new law (s.144) and possible new legislation (eg commercial). Contains features on: squatting former bank in Clifton, Bristol, harassment at the House of Brag (LGBT squat), Gremlin Alley squat in Cardiff, blogs on new law (s.144), and the Tory attack on social housing.
When poverty and homelessness become a criminal matter
The new law criminalising squatting starts to bite (First squatter jailed under new law, 27 September), and what a chilling headline that is – accepting as inevitable that this is just the first. We see a young man, an apprentice bricklayer, imprisoned for three months, and his two housemates awaiting sentence. It seems likely that he will lose his apprenticeship and be discharged from prison – homeless and with a criminal record.
Lawyer calls on Labour to repeal s.144
Alistair Mitchell, a barrister from Foregate Chambers, recently found himself being courted by Andy Burnham from the Labour Party for their support. Outraged by the injustice of section 144, he has called upon the party to campaign for the repeal of this draconian legislation. Here is his letter: Dear Andy, I was appalled that the Labour Party failed to oppose the passing of s.144 LAPSO to criminalise homeless people who squat. Indeed, your Shadow Justice Secretary went out of his way to support the new law with a statement on your website. S.144 was passed with just 90 minutes of […]
SQUASH NewsRound: Issue 1, September 2012
Squash News Round will be a fortnightly event, keeping tabs on articles being posted in MainStream Media (MSM) sources, as well as independent channels (eg IMC, SchNEWS) about squatting, the new law (s.144) and possible new legislation (eg commercial). Issue No. 1: September 2012. Contains the following articles: MSM coverage of the new law (s.144 LASPO) coming into effect, Irene Gardiner and her case in Wales, arrest of Alex Haigh (first person prosecuted), reaction to first arrest, and housing blogs claiming the new law is not effective enough.
Update from Eviction Resistance Network
This round-up is cross-posted from the Eviction Resistance Network blog. We've been keeping track of squat related activity since September 1st when squatting in residential building was made illegal. Here's a quick round up: GLASTONBURY A few days ago we reported that 5 individuals were, to our knowledge, the first to be arrested under the new law. Coincidently, it has also been revealed that proposals to make more emergency accommodation for homeless young people in Somerset have twice been turned down by planners. We understand the Squatters Legal Network are keen to support those arrested. Here's more information from the […]
Criminalising Squatting – Privatising Empty Space
On the 1st September the act of squatting in a residential building became a criminal offence under Section 144 of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act (LASPO). This unprecedented piece of legislation was enacted to a flurry of government statements claiming 'justice' and 'protection' for "hard-working homeowners" against the "misery of squatting". At once both mimicking and feeding vitriolic media campaigns, Justice Minister Crispin Blunt claimed that "by making this change, we can slam shut the door on squatters once and for all". By Monday the 3rd September we saw police with battering rams in Brighton
Legal challenge to new squatting law
This post is by Leigh Day & Co legal firm who are coordinating the legal challenge and was originally posted on their blog here A mother of four from Wales is taking legal action challenging the new anti-squatting legislation, coming into force today (1 September 2012), in a bid to stay in the house she has lived in for 11 years with her children. Irene Gardiner (49) has lived in her home, a cottage in Newchapel, near Llanidloes, as a squatter for 11 years. Her two younger children Hazel (15) and Sol (13) live with her and attend the local […]
Updated advice from the Advisory Service for Squatters
If you are currently squatting, or believe you may otherwise be affected by the new laws, we recommend that you read the following advice and resources from the Advisory Service for Squatters.
Criminalising squatting hurts the poor and benefits the rich
From Saturday, a massively unjust, unnecessary and unaffordable new law will come into force in England and Wales. In the middle of one of the worst housing crises this country has ever seen, up to 50,000 squatters who are currently squatting in empty properties across the UK face becoming criminals, and this because they are occupying abandoned residential properties to put a roof over their heads.
This post is cross-posted from the Guardian blog.
Tell us your story: the Squash Campaign is collecting case studies
The Squash Campaign is collecting case studies of people impacted by the new law criminalising squatting. Many communities will be shattered by this new law. Some children will be impacted. People will be made homeless as they are forced to leave properties that will be left to rot. We are especially interested in stories of people who have been in their homes for years, in buildings that have been left empty. Are you or do you know any squatters who would be willing to share their stories with us?
Squash Picnic Attendees facing SOCPA charges
The following piece has been written by Ashleigh Marsh who is currently being prosecuted under SOCPA legislation for her role is taking part at a picnic and sleep-out on the Xxth October 2011, in order to visually show the effect that the criminalisation of squatting would have on between 20-50,000 people in England and Wales, ie having to sleep rough. Ashleigh is active in her community, for example working to get a new skateboard park built for local people in Woolwich, one of most deprived areas in London. SQUASH fully support Ashleigh and her two co-defendants as they face charges, […]
Council pays £440,000 so security firm can exploit tenants
In the UK the homeless have traditionally been allowed to legally occupy long-term empty property. These rights were critical at key moments in history (such as after the WW2 when Britain experienced a housing crisis and squatting was rife). Squatters' rights came to an end on March 27th when the government criminalised squatting in residential properties. The new law will come into effect in a matter of months…

Fight the anti-squatting bill! Assemble 1pm outside Metropolis, Stokes Croft. Saturday 14th April
Squatting criminalised by 'sham democracy'
This calls for an organised response. As has been recognised by SQUASH: "This has always been a right-wing attack to defend and enhance private property rights over the human right to shelter and we now have to defend ourselves". That defence does not play itself out in the upholstered arena of sham-democratic institutions such as the House of Lords. It happens on the streets, and in empty properties up and down the country…
Squatting in residential properties to be criminalised in months
What a joke! All of it, the whole process. Last night the House of Lords passed a clause hidden in the legal aid bill to criminalise squatting in residential properties essentially making thousands of homeless people criminals overnight. A whole section of the very poorest and most vulnerable in society have been made criminals and again the debate took place extremely late in the day. The harsh reality is that the government keeps enough peers at Parliament late at night if they face any risk of defeat while the rest of the Lords (Labour, Crossbenchers, Bishops & others) rarely stay […]
Criminalising squatting is the real crime
It's a curious move during the worst housing crisis in modern memory, to turn homeless people who shelter in empty homes into criminals looking at a year in prison or a £5000 fine.
This from the government whose leader promised that austerity would not hurt "the vulnerable, the poorest in our society".
New video: Cost of Criminalising Squatting
This video from Squash shows the cost of criminalising squatting, both human and financial. As the video says, the Lords still have a chance to stop criminalisation on Tuesday, when Clause 145 (formerly 136) is debated again. Do get in touch with them and let them know clause 145 is no way to handle a housing crisis; please share this video widely.
You know something stinks when its only debated at midnight
SQUASH campaigners have just returned home from a three hour stint in the House of Lords public gallery. After an hour discussion on scrap metal the debate on squatting finally took place just before midnight. Considering the hour the honourable noble speeches couldn't have gone any better. Baroness Miller who had tabled five amendments in opposition to Clause 136 – which seeks to criminalise squatting in residential properties – denounced the injustices of this ill thought-out clause, and explained why this clause needed radically rethinking. Baroness Lister and Lord Bach (both Labour) spoke forcefully on the devastating impacts that this […]
And those amendments in full…
These are the amendments we're tabling in full, with explanations why we support them. They're been tabled by a friendly peer and will be debated in the House of Lords next Tuesday 20 March. That will be a very important day: it could mean the criminalisation of squatting in residential buildings; it could mean a stay of execution for squatting. We're doing everything we can to make sure it's the latter, and we think these amendments will help…
The final push: what you need to know to save squatting
We're now at the most critical stage of the campaign, our very last chance to stop the criminalisation of squatting. Next Tuesday 20 March, Clause 136 of the Legal-Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders (LASPO) bill will be debated and voted on in the House of Lords. If it's passed it would sanction a £5000 fine or up to a year in prison for those squatting in residential buildings.

Q: How to set a HTML cell style based on if the value in the cell is Yes or No using React JS I have a table that is usng a sample dataset to populate.
I want to set the cell color based on what value is in the the cell.
I am not really too sure how to do that at this point.
The CSS I want to use is here:
.background-green  {
    background-color: #009000;
    color: #ffffff;
}

.background-red  {
    background-color: #ff0000;
    color: #ffffff;
}

The sample data I am using is here:
export const dataset = [
        { sampleid: "1", sample1: "No", sample2: "Yes", sample3: "No",  sample4: "Yes",
          sample5: "Yes" },
        { sampleid: "2", sample1: "No", sample2: "Yes", sample3: "No",  sample4: "Yes",
          sample5: "Yes" }

The function used to populate the table is here:
export function myTabledata() {
    return dataset.map(data=> (

            {data.sampleid}
            {data.sample1}
            {data.sample2}
            {data.sample3}
            {data.sample4}
            {data.sample5}

       )
    );
}

I did set one  tag to use the red CSS it does apply it however I am trying to understand to do it conditionally

A: You can use a ternary operator like this:
{data.sample2}

If the condition is truthy (data.sample2 === Yes) background-green class will apply, otherwise (data.sample2 === No) background-red will apply.

Gobioclinus guppyi, the mimic blenny, is a species of labrisomid blenny native to the western Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea from south Florida to Fernando de Noronha. It inhabits areas such as reefs, near shore areas with rock or rubble covered in algae, and in beds of seagrass. This species can reach a length of  TL. The specific name honours Robert Lechmere Guppy who collected the type and sent it to the British Museum (Natural History), he was also the father of Robert John Lechmere Guppy who discovered the guppy.

// The Boy
Once upon a time there was a boy. He lived on a council estate in the North East of England until his father joined the army. For more than a decade the boy moved around the world, only stopping when it was time for him to further his education.
The boy graduated university with a degree in fine art and a bloody-minded ambition to direct. Starting at the bottom, he climbed up through the ranks of production, until he had shot and directed several hours of documentary television.
Then, driven by a desire to make features, the boy started writing. His short screenplays became longer as he taught himself the craft. Immersing himself in the gangster, horror, and science fiction genres; writing about revenge, punishment, and loyalty; developing a style that has been described as "imaginative and very visual, with an intelligent handle on ideas".
The boy is older now and a little wiser but no less bloody-minded. He thinks of himself as a writer. In part because he has devoted so much time developing the skills needed to make that claim. But mostly because writing's a fight and this boy needs a battle.

Moment by Moment is an intriguing selection of many moments in John Loengard's long career. His subjects include movie stars, writers, politicians, artists, and other photographers, as well as normal people engaged in a host of extraordinary activities―or, rather, typical activities rendered unforgettable or of enduring interest by the photographer's vision. From a shimmering Marilyn Monroe to a brooding T. S. Eliot, from a now almost sinister silhouette of Bill Cosby to an iconic shot of the Beatles, from an Etonian to a boy in the streets of Manchester, as well as ranchers, sweepers, picnickers, and fellow photographers, Loengard's vision moves and delights us with his humanity and artistry.


Our wallpapers are artworks and we suggest they are hung with the same care and precision we put into making them. To help you get it just right, we've drawn up a few pointers with our hanging instructions below.
1. You want the wall as clean as possible, so remove all traces of dirt, old wallpaper, and flaking paint. Also, we strongly advise never to hand wallpaper on any wall with a history of dampness.
2. With a suitable filler, even out cracks and irregularities to achieve a satisfyingly smooth surface.
3. Once you've smoothed, filled, and sanded your wall, make sure all surfaces are clean and dry.
4. To achieve the perfect edges, before you wallpaper your wall, you might want to paint the wall in a similar colour to the wallpaper you are applying to ensure that the background does not show through at the seams where the edges of the wallpaper meet.
5. Our wallpapers tend to be 140gsm, and are classified as a medium to heavy grade paper. Nonetheless, if the walls are significantly uneven, then you may want to use lining paper to ensure a faultless finish. For best results, this should be hung horizontally, to avoid matching seams, therefore, the greater chance of peeling.
The art of hanging wallpaper involves care and attention to detail. But it also requires confidence. If you're unsure please employ a professional.
1. Before cutting into lengths according to the height of the wall, check the rolls are undamaged and the batch numbers match. Also, check that the pattern repeat will align with the previous/next drop and that you have the design the correct way round. Our wallpapers can be rolled in either direction so the free end isn't always the top of the design. And don't forget to allow 2-3 inches at the top and bottom for trimming.
2. We recommend getting a high-quality wallpaper paste for the job.
3. Measure the water into a plastic container following the advice on the packaging, and whilst stirring add the paste. You'll feel the mixture gradually thicken. When the stick can stand up by itself, it's ready. If it's too watery overstretching can occur, which causes the paper to shrink back when dry.
4. Carefully brush an even coat of paste over the paper, making sure the edges are well pasted.
5. Take care when applying the paste as if the paper becomes too wet it will shrink back when dry, and if too little is used, it will not stick to the wall and be difficult to move to the final position.
6. Allow the paper to soak for up to 5 minutes, until pliable.
7. Now for the precision. As a guide, draw a vertical line on the wall for hanging the first drop. For the next drop, you can use the edge of the first drop and the pattern, to achieve the perfect position.
8. When hanging your wallpaper take care not to stretch it, as it will shrink back when dry, exaggerating the seams. Also, we recommend that the paper is allowed to dry out naturally and recommend turning off central heating so it can do this.
9. When you're happy with the position, cut off the excess paper with a sharp blade to give a clean, straight edge.
10. Carefully wipe off any excess paste with a damp sponge. Then use a soft clean dry cloth to remove residual water after cleaning to stop any marking.
11. Now take a step back and admire your beautifully hung CommonRoom wallpaper.

The dynamic clutch plate test rig from CFM Schiller is used for testing of the endurance limit of vehicle clutches, particularly for the mechanical components.
A servo-hydraulic rotary actuator with operating frequencies up to 30 Hz drives the test rig. The clutch plate specimen is placed in a temperature chamber, which can be continuously heated and controlled to a temperature of 150°C (300°F). The rotary actuator applies reversed torque to the specimen according to the demanded stress on the material.
The test rig is decoupled from the carrying framework through four CFM Air Springs type MAS. This feature prevents transmission of occurring vibrations into the surroundings.

I've mentioned in earlier articles that for many people poetry has become something associated more with academics than pleasure. Often the poetry that is considered "popular" is limited to Insta-poets such as Rupi Kaur, Tyler Knott Gregson, or Lang Leav. Poetry, especially Canadian poetry, has as much if not more to offer the reader than what we already consider popular, and often experiments with form in its own way. Here are 4 poetry books by Canadian authors that are well worth reading.
I encountered this book in my fourth year Creative Writing course. What first captivated me about this book was its experimentation with form. As a poet myself form is something that makes or breaks a poem or book of poetry for me. I love encountering books of poetry that go beyond a single form and represent the wide variety of what poetry can actually be and become. In the case of Get Me Out of Here, while each poem is different, they all have the overlying theme of airports, and being within the timeless in-between state of waiting for your plane to arrive, or waiting to depart. While creating each poem in this collection, Murakami used quotes from friends and fellow poets of an interesting though that they had while in airports. The book is divided into 4 parts: Departures, Connections, Pickups, and Arrivals. Each quote is based on the location or airport they were in at that point in time.
I first heard of Yvonne Blomer at a reading held yearly in Windsor called Poetry at the Manor. Her works moved me, and I had to read one of her books. As If A Raven was that book. Each poem in the book features a portrait of a different type of bird. What makes the book so extraordinary is its ability to call from ornithology and myths in order to create beautiful and complex portraits that perfectly evoke each type of bird expressed and what it is like to experience bird watching.
This is another book that I admire for its diverse use of form. Unlike Get Me Out of Here, however, it doesn't have a specific thread connecting each poem to the next, but rather it feels like a celebration of poetry itself. Moving from poem to poem this books feels like a true exploration of what poetry can be. The topic of each poem ranges from one to the next, and depends on the form used, but they mostly evoke what it means to be human in today's society.
In all honesty, I first encountered Phyllis Webb in grade 9, and I fell in love with her writing, so I have a particular weakness for Webb's poetry. For this entry, I was initially planning on suggesting her book of collected poems, Peacock Blue. Upon consideration, however, I decided on The Sea is Also a Garden considering this one is by far my favourite. Written in 1962, The Sea is Also a Garden is her third book of poetry, and it contains some of her most popular poems including "Poetics Against the Angel of Death". The book plays with themes of mental illness in some poems, while also evoking the idea of the sea as a garden and how the sea is evoked in our everyday lives in others.


This weekend, we held a bridal shower for my soon-to-be-wed sister Lizzy--however, since Lizzy lives in the USA, and we live in Malaysia, this bridal shower was made possible by the power of technology!
In our part of the globe, we invited many of Lizzy's friends and the ladies who had watched her grow up to come to spend an evening celebrating her and chatting with her about her love story and plans for marriage. MaryGrace was the primary baker--spending most of Friday making three kinds of cookies and biscuits and all sorts of yummy treats. As usual, I prepped games, decor, and favors. On Saturday, the day of the party, we spent the whole day at a charity fundraising event, only returning home an hour before the party was due to begin. Thankfully, Mom had been at home during the day and had time to prepare the last-minute fruit and veggie snacks.
Lizzy and Anna called in promptly at 7--which was 7 in the morning, their time!
As guests arrived, they were instructed first to guess how many chocolate kisses were in this silver box (they were allowed to shake the box, but not to open it!), then they had to take a little toy ring to wear, and were told that if they said wedding or bride, anyone could ask them to give up their ring.
By strange coincidence, one lady guessed the exact number of kisses in the box, and she was the one who didn't know that you were allowed to lift the box or shake it, she'd just guessed, and happened to guess "77"! She certainly earned the prize of taking the whole box of kisses home! Also funny, we asked Anna and Lizzy to guess the number of kisses based on looking at the box, which must have looked really small in the video, because they guessed "25" and "18." Most of the guests here who shook the box were in the 80-100 range.
After guessing the number of kisses, we asked our guests to grab a plate of food--we always have a lot of food at our parties! And then they could sit down and chat with Lizzy for a bit. She told her entire love story--how they met, how he pursued her, how he proposed, and all those sorts of moments, which was really nice because, given the distance, not all of the women in her community here have been able to hear many of the details of their relationship.
Of course, we had to show all of the lovely food to the bride, who was eating soup for breakfast, and didn't get to share in tasting our yummy treats!
We had bought presents online, and also given Maid-of-Honor Anna some errands to run so that Lizzy had gifts to open during the party, but we also really enjoyed playing games. Because bridal showers are not particularly common in this culture, this was the very first bridal shower some of the guests had ever gone to--and they mentioned that they particularly enjoyed the games!
One game we played was a version of "Mustaches and Tiaras," which involved asking the bride and groom to answer a list of questions ahead of time, then reading out the questions along with just one of the answers. Guests had to guess who gave that answer, the bride or the groom, and vote by raising either the mustache or the tiara--or BOTH, if they thought that the bride and groom might have had the exact same answer.
We took some time to all share our favorite relationship advice--even the youngest guests, including Sarah. I think MaryGrace's advice was one of my favorites: "Remember the importance of surprising someone...like giving them cupcakes!"
Have you been to a bridal shower lately? We enjoyed ourselves, and it was a great way for Malaysia to get to have its own role in celebrating her upcoming wedding! There's always a bright side to technology!
Sounds and looks awesome. But who eats soup for breakfast? I have never had soup for breakfast. Is this a cultural thing or a Lizzy thing?
Wow, this is so cool that y'all had a virtual bridal shower for her! How creative. I find it interesting that bridal showers aren't that common in Malaysian culture-I've never thought of that before!
The food looks quite tasty, and it's too bad that Lizzy couldn't get any! I bet her soup was good, though. The only soup I ever really have for breakfast is miso soup, but I don't ever eat it for breakfast that often-and I don't know why, because soup is so tasty and a great way to start off the day! (and way heartier/more refreshing than sugary breakfast cereal).
This is really, really cool. I never would've thought to do this! How sweet and your stories were so funny! Especially the guessing kisses one ��! I wouldn't have thought they would've seen a size difference! Haha! technology fails us sometimes, but in this case i'd certainly say it was AWESOME!
What a sweet idea. I'm sure your bride appreciated the effort. Those heart wedding dress cookies are very cute!
What a cute idea! I never got to have a bridal shower with ALL of my bridesmaids since we lived in 5 different states! What a fun idea!
Oh that is the sweetest idea! I haven't ever thought of doing something like that! I just love throwing showers, they're so much fun!
That is such a creative way to host a bridal shower!
This is so sweet and such a lovely idea. I love how much effort you went through just as if she were really going to be there in person! What fun. I think that this is a great reminder that we can be more involved in things with people even when we are far away!
I love your spirit! And that you figured out how to host a bridal shower from half a world away. The bride is blessed to have you in her life!
This is such a sweet idea. I'm glad the people in Malaysia were able to take part in the bridal shower. It looks like you did a great job.
What a fun way to do a long distance shower!
What a lovely thing to do when you can't be there in person. I don't think I've been to a bridal shower since my own which was about 18 months ago. We decorated biscuits very similar to the ones in you picture! The only difference was ours were bridal dresses that we had to decorate. We played a game I really enjoyed where each person wrote down a memory they had with me and I had to guess who wrote the memory. It was a lot of fun!
Once again your party planning skills never cease to amaze! But a virtual bridal shower is a first for me. You pulled it off wonderfully. How fun!
How special! And I love your game ideas!
This is so creative and awesome! I love the mustache & tiara game (my sister did something similar at my bachelorette party.) I love how you hosted it virtually, but you still had some fun stuff for Lizzie to do stateside! I'm sure it's so difficult on all you sisters to be apart during such an exciting time of life.
This is so sweet and creative. Also those cookies...with edible sparkles? So cool. My sister got married 5 months after we left the country - we attended her wedding via skype (skype is wonderful!). I don't think she had a bridal shower. I'm not actually sure that I've ever been to one. Did I have one myself? I don't think I did. This is actually making me kind of sad now! And hungry. That Cobb salad picture... yummy.

The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia is een Amerikaanse dramafilm uit 1981 onder regie van Ronald F. Maxwell. De film is losjes geïnspireerd op het gelijknamige lied uit 1972 van Vicki Lawrence. Countryzangeres Tanya Tucker nam voor de soundtrack van deze verfilming een nieuwe versie op.

Verhaal

Een jonge zanger en zijn zus / manager reizen naar Nashville op zoek naar roem. Terwijl ze van het ene groezelige hotel naar het andere reizen, wordt het steeds duidelijker dat slechts één van hen het in zich heeft om een ster te worden.

Travis Child (Quaid) is een countryzanger die één hit had en daarna in de vergetelheid is geraakt. Zijn ambitieuze jongere zus, Amanda (McNichol), is vastbesloten om met Travis naar Nashville af te reizen en opnieuw een ster van hem te maken. Deze plannen mislukken vanwege Travis 'gebrek aan ambitie en gemakkelijke afleiding door vrouwen en drank. Amanda ontmoet een staatsmilitair genaamd Conrad.

Niet veel later wordt Travis gearresteerd wegens openbare dronkenschap. Om de boete te betalen neemt hij een baantje als bartender in een taverne langs de weg genaamd Andy's, waar hij valt voor een jonge dame genaamd Melody. Zij heeft een erg jaloerse ex-vriend - die toevallig de plaatsvervangende sheriff is genaamd Seth James. Seth verwondt Travis in een hinderlaag. Travis verstopt zich in de vloerplanken van zijn vrachtwagen en doet alsof hij dood is. Wanneer Seth Travis de vrachtwagendeur open rukt om nog een kogel door zijn hoofd te jagen, doodt Travis hem met een pistool. Travis, in slechte staat, pakt de auto van Seth, rijdt ermee van de weg af en overlijdt. Amanda begraaft Travis en neemt afscheid van Melody. Ze loopt de weg af met haar hond. Conrad overtuigt haar uiteindelijk om samen met hem te vertrekken.

College Republicans club is back on campus
The Vantage Sep 19, 2019 0 Comments
By Kaitlyn Smith, A&E Editor
Newman hasn't had any student political clubs for several years. But this semester, a new College Republicans Club has formed on campus.
Senior Aaron Lindsay said he worked alongside some like-minded students to bring back the club, which last operated on campus around 2016. The Student Government Association voted to approve it a week ago.
Cramer Brown, the media officer of the new club, said that the goal of the organization is "to uphold the United States Republican mission."
The club's leaders said they are planning some events to get the club rolling. Brown said that they had plans to do some fundraising and events that the whole campus can participate in.
"We talked about going to Range 54 and getting some members conceal carried certified. Anyone can come. This is just a good way to learn about firearms," Brown said. "Some of our members have talked about their parents being police officers open to facilitating it and getting us all certified. Several people have expressed interest."
Lindsay said they have an idea to express patriotism on Veteran's Day.
"I saw a video from Oklahoma University where they do flags on Veteran's Day and they put it out for their students where they can walk out, grab flags, and put them in the yard," he said. "So we're looking at doing something like that. "
Brown said that the club is open to students of all political beliefs who may want to explore other paths.
"I really want to uphold the constitution. I believe it should be interpreted as written," he said. "Come and join us. You might learn a thing or two about what it means to be a conservative."

Nonlinear Advection-Diffusion-Reaction Phenomena Involved in the Evolution and Pumping of Oil in Open Sea: Modeling, Numerical Simulation and Validation Considering the Prestige and Oleg Naydenov Oil Spill Cases.
The main goal of this article is to improve upon a previous model used to simulate the evolution of oil spots in the open sea and the effect of a skimmer ship pumping oil out from the spots. The concentration of the pollutant is subject to the effects of wind and sea currents, diffusion, and the pumping action of a skimmer (i.e., cleaning) ship that follows a pre-assigned trajectory. This implies that the mathematical model is of the advection-diffusion-reaction type. A drawback of our previous model was that diffusion was propagating with infinite velocity; in this article, we use an improved modeling relying on a nonlinear diffusion term, implying that diffusion propagates with finite velocity. To reduce numerical diffusion when approximating the advection part of the model, we consider second order discretization schemes with nonlinear flux limiters. We consider also absorbing boundary conditions to insure accurate results near the boundary. To reduce CPU time we use an operator-splitting scheme for the time discretization. Finally, we also introduce the modeling of coastlines and dynamic sources of pollutant. The novel approach we advocate in this article is validated by comparing our numerical results with real life measurements from the Oleg Naydenov and the Prestige oil spills, which took place in Spain in 2015 and 2002, respectively.

How Do I Know What Type Of Real Estate Investing To Pursue?
Home›Real Estate Investing Basics›How Do I Know What Type Of Real Estate Investing To Pursue?
On a recent podcast titled Mobile Home Investing and Getting Started With John Fedro I was asked, "What is your advice for newer investors that are confused about which investing niche to pursue?" Today I wanted to dive deeper into that question and give some clarity to the newer investors having this same dilemma. Once you have clarity on a path forward you can start eliminating niches that don't make you happy and profitable.
Let me first make this disclaimer. This article and my subsequent answers are all assuming that you are serious about becoming a real estate investor. Investing takes discipline and daily focused effort. If instead you have a habit of starting things you don't finish you may wish to concretely verbalize your commitment to this business and helping others.
Let me start off answering this reader question by disagreeing with it. The entire question insinuates that you can and will invest in only 1 type of property forever, for better or for worse.
There are hundreds of ways to make money with real estate. Some of these methods involve a good deal of time and little capital, and other investing niches require capital and little time to get started. Additionally, some methods require both time and capital. A consistent part of any investing niche is experienced education.
If you are over 30 years old than it is safe to say you may have changed your career a few times since leaving high school. You may have wanted to be a doctor, then changed to a law degree, then changed to a business major. If you too, are a serial career hopper than please realize that you only had enough insights and experience to change careers once you were exposed to one in detail.
Personal example: I was pursuing my medical degree when I had the overwhelming urge that I did not want to deal with sick people every day for the rest of my life.
Real estate investing in no different. Only after having a clear picture and path to take in real estate can we decide that this "is" or "is not" the right choice for ourselves.
Personal example: When I got started I was competing against countless other investors in my market looking for traditional houses behind on payments or in foreclosure. The high degree of needed capital and the stiff competition drove me to pursue other niches. That is when I fell into mobile home investing; the passive cash-flow, low competition, low barrier of entry, and high ROI fit my goals perfectly.
How to Proceed Forward when You are Unsure How or What Properties to Invest in For Profit?
Step 1. Make a list of all the types of real estate investing niches that you have heard of. Brandon of BiggerPockets wrote a fantastic article a while back titled Top Ways To Make Money in Real Estate, which does a great job outlining many of the ways to make money in real estate.
Step 2. Know your specific goals and what attributes you possess. Are you looking for fast cash or would you rather build monthly cash-flow? Do you have a great deal of free time? How is your credit? How much capital do you have to start investing with?
Step 3. Learn more about the methods that interest you the most. Understand a clear path moving forward. Talk to a seasoned investor specializing in your desired niche and gain clarity from them.
Ask these seasoned investors to outline a typical path they could describe leading you from your current position to your first deal in this niche. Gain clarity on the skills needed and steps-of-the-path on each niche that interests you. Tip: If a mentor or local investor cannot tell you the steps needed to get to your next deal look for someone more experienced.
Step 4. Using what you have learned from your research, take massive specific action with one or two niches at a time. Eliminate the ones you don't like or that are not producing results in your area. Understand why some methods work for you and why some niches do not work for you. Remember that if anyone else has had success in this field then there is no reason why you cannot either.
Step 5. Continually be looking for motivated sellers of all types of properties. When you find a seller and property you are unfamiliar with I encourage you to partner with someone local and experienced to help the seller and complete the deal.
Step 6. Be aware of the happiness and success you are having. If something is not working don't take this as fact. Keep trying new things and asking for help until you are happy in a real estate investing niche (or two) you love and are successful with.
If you have additional or alternative steps that can be helpful to newer investors deciding on the correct niche(s) for them please don't hesitate to comment them below.
Good post John. For new investors, I tell them to start with a "lease option" first as that don't require a lot of money to get started with and plenty of time to rehab or flip.
After deciding how and what you're going to do, write a doable plan and a path that will get you there. Then master the steps that you need in order to achieve your goal.
