The St. Croix, Virgin Islands-born, Harlem-based Hubert Harrison (April 27, 1883 – December 17, 1927) was a brilliant writer, orator, editor, educator, critic, and political activist, and a self-described "radical internationalist." Historian Joel A. Rogers in "World's Great Men of Color" described him as "the foremost Afro-American intellect of his time" and the one with the sanest program. A. Philip Randolph, referring to a time when Harlem was recognized as the "international Negro Mecca" and "the center of radical black thought," called him "the father of Harlem radicalism."
Harrison was the major radical influence on both the class-conscious Randolph and the race-conscious Marcus Garvey as well as on a generation of "New Negro" activists and "common people." He is the only person in United States history to play signal, leading roles in the largest class radical movement (socialism) and the largest race radical movement (the "New Negro"/Garvey movement) of his era. He is also a key link in the ideological unity of the two great trends of the Civil Rights/Black Liberation Struggle – the labor/civil rights trend associated with Randolph and Martin Luther King, Jr. and the race/nationalist trend associated with Garvey and Malcolm X.
Harrison was the founder of the militant, World War-I era "New Negro Movement"; a pioneering (and reportedly unrivalled) soap-box orator and regular Black book-reviewer; the author of two books, "The Negro and the Nation" (1917) and "When Africa Awakes: The Inside Story of the Stirrings and Strivings of the New Negro in the Western World" (1920); and the editor of important publications including "The Voice: A Newspaper for the New Negro" (1917-1918), the "New Negro" ("intended as an organ of the international consciousness of the darker races – especially of the Negro race" in 1919), the "Negro World" (newspaper of Marcus Garvey's Universal Negro Improvement Association in 1920), and "The Voice of the Negro" (the organ of the International Colored Unity League in 1927).
Hubert Harrison's life and work have much to offer current and future generations!
Let us continue to learn from Hubert Harrison!
Help to keep his memory alive!

People of the New Evangelization
Posted by Fr. Frank Pavone | Dec 28, 2010 | Prolife |
Fr. Frank Pavone
On September 21, 2010, the Holy Father announced officially the creation of a new agency at the Vatican called The Pontifical Council for Promoting the New Evangelization. The term "New Evangelization" refers to the need to re-announce the Gospel in those parts of the world where, although the Church has been established for a long time, society has become secularized and people have drifted from the Faith. It is not a new message that the New Evangelization brings, but rather a new vigor, new methods, and new applications to the problems of today.
Indeed, widespread legal abortion is one of those problems. In his decree establishing this new Pontifical Council, Pope Benedict said that there are many factors in the modern world that have affected people's faith, including,
"The expanding possibilities with regard to life and individual freedom, …. All of this has not been without consequences on the religious dimension of human life as well. … [T]here has been a troubling loss of the sense of the sacred, which has even called into question foundations once deemed unshakeable such as … a common understanding of basic human experiences: i.e., birth, death, life in a family, and reference to a natural moral law. Even though some consider these things a kind of liberation, there soon follows an awareness that an interior desert results whenever the human being, wishing to be the sole architect of his nature and destiny, finds himself deprived of that which is the very foundation of all things…. (Decree Ubicumque et Semper)."
Certainly this describes the Culture of Death. "Individual freedom" is distorted to the point where it becomes an enemy of life, and therefore of freedom. A "loss of the sense of the sacred" in regard to "birth, death, life in a family" includes all the confusion that a culture of abortion introduces into the joys and challenges of pregnancy and childbirth. The human being "wishing to be the sole architect of his nature and destiny" is a great description of the ultimate meaning of "pro-choice," and, of course a disconnect from "a natural moral law" accounts for the widespread action of legislatures and courts that think they can make legal an act of violence.
Then the Pope goes on to say,
"[A]t the root of all evangelization lies not a human plan of expansion, but rather the desire to share the inestimable gift that God has wished to give us, making us sharers in his own life."
Indeed, evangelization is all about the proclamation of life – a life which God gives first by creating us, and then offering us a share in His own divine nature. Evangelization, the announcement of the Gospel, is the announcement that the destiny of the human person is to sit with Christ on his throne (cf. Rev. 3:21). It is in that very proclamation that we find the obligation and privilege of defending the human person. Indeed, we the People of Life are the People of the New Evangelization!

National Director, Priests for Life Father Frank Pavone is a native New Yorker who was ordained in 1988 by Cardinal John O'Connor. He is a priest of the Amarillo Diocese in Texas and serves full-time in pro-life leadership with his bishop's permission. In 1993 he became national director of Priests for Life. He is also the president of the National Pro-life Religious Council, and the national pastoral director of Rachel's Vineyard, the world's largest ministry of healing after abortion. He travels throughout the country preaching and teaching against abortion. He lived in Rome for two years while serving on the Pontifical Council for the Family, and recently was appointed to the Pontifical Academy for Life. In 2005, he was present at the bedside of Terri Schiavo as she was dying and was an outspoken advocate for her life. He was invited by members of the Class of 2009 at Notre Dame to lead an alternate commencement ceremony for those students who refused to attend the ceremony in which President Obama was honored. Father Pavone has received the "Proudly Pro-life Award" by the National Right to Life Committee, and numerous other pro-life awards and honorary doctorates. Norma McCorvey, the "Jane Roe" of the Supreme Court's Roe vs. Wade abortion decision, has described him as "the catalyst that brought me into the Catholic Church."

October 1 Tour of the South Shore
Present : Louis Rubenstein & A.T. Lane Minutes by A.T. Lane
A.T. Lane and Louis Louis met at the Shakia cafe and cycled to the St Lambert Locks. This was the last Fixture ride for Louis Louis before his upcoming knee replacement as well as the Last Supper of egg salad sandwiches for the Montreal Bicycle Club until he is back again in the saddle with us.
Louis had to get back early so he and A. T. parted company at the Locks, the former continuing along the South Shore to St Catherine. This was the first time he had cycled on this route and ended up at a shopping centre parking lot after being send down some side streets by a construction detour. However he quickly found his way back, crossing autoroute 15, to the main Route Verte 3, which follows along the south side of the seaway.
After a lunch break at Tim Hortons, he took a few photos of the seaway and the view of Montreal from the South Shore.
Length of ride 50 km
Total Km by members 65 km
Participants 2
October 4 St Jerome
Present : A.T. Lane Minutes by A.T. Lane
The days are getting shorter and 7:00 am is a pre-dawn hour for Montreal in October. Upon arriving in St Jerome, rather than ride north on the P'tit Train du Nord trail and then return on the same route I decided to start at the entrance to this trail and ride back home to Montreal.
The trail follows close to the rail line to Sainte-Thérèse then there are a variety of different path types before the bridge to Laval.
The total length of the trip (including a few wrong turns in Laval) 72 km.
12 October Parc Frédéric-Back
Present : H.S. Tibbs & A.T. Lane Minutes by A.T. Lane
As it has been a number of weeks since the two members had been on a Fixture ride together they spent some time at the Shaika Cafe catching up on news. The route to the former Quarry was chosen by the north side of Mount Royal. We were made comments about about the architecture of various Montreal landmarks we passed along the way such as the Rialto Theatre.
Upon arriving at the former Miron Quarry the architecture conversation segued into the various buildings around what will become Parc Frédéric-Back. We stopped and looked at the historical bike collection at the Taz Skateboard Arena and the new indoor soccer field.
We noticed that parts of Parc Frédéric-Back are now open and have an interesting Ball design for the methane gas collecting pipes.
We also stopped by at Tohu theatre which was in the midst of preparations for an upcoming Auto Show. Our MBC uniforms seemed to give us instant access to the circus museum and show floor. We returned via Parc Mount Royal.
Total Km by members 100 km
19-21 October Ottawa to Montreal
Present Mile-a-Minute Murphy & A.T. Lane ; Minutes by A,T. Lane
We met at Montreal Central Station for 4:50 pm train to Ottawa. The bicycles were easily handled by the Via rail staff who took the steeds on to the train for us.
When we arrived at Fallowfield rail station it was dark and we made our way by our steed's faint head lights to the Lone Star restaurant. There we had supper and discussed the upcoming trip. Around 9:30 we continued on to the night's lodgings at Cathy's were she and Mile-a-Minute Murphy discovered various common Bishop's friends.
Early next morning we headed out again, first posing for some shots in front of Cathy's house.
After 14 km of Ottawa city roads we came to the entrance of the Prescott and Russell pathway, a former rail line, now a gravel path with some asphalt sections alongside forests and farmer's fields. 20 km later the "Official" start of the 72 km path began (the total length including the entrance is 92 km). The trail's land is owned by Via Rail which someday may use it for a dedicated high speed train line between Ottawa and Montreal.
The path has a few former rail stations, some wildlife, and lot's of farms and forest.
For lunch and a bit of rest we rode off the trail a few kms to Vankleek Hill which is home to Beau's Brewing Company. In addition to the lunch truck burger we had a few beer samples and tour of the Brewery.
Entering Quebec we passed by Mont Rigaud, and stayed at Mile-a-Minute's summer cottage on the Ottawa river. We arrived at the cottage at 5:00 pm, distance travelled 135 km.
After later start next morning, we entered into the main town of Hudson, then posed for pictures at the soon to be re-opened Willow's Inn.
We posed for a photo at a house in Baie D'Urfe with special sentimental value, helped in the construction of Dalle Park, and arrived just shy of 200 km before enjoying the finishing beer.
Length of ride 200 km
27 October Tour Louis-Hippolyte-Lafontaine Tunnel Bicycle overpass along South Shore
Present H.S. Tibbs & A.T. Lane ; Minutes by A,T. Lane
The MBC convened at its favorite beanery, Shäika Café. After a detailed discussion of local politics, A.T. and Tibby set off for their destination of the day, the new section of cycling path built on the south shore of the St Laurent opposite the îles de Boucherville. Early in the ride they ventured through the MUHC and down the fire truck entry to the Glen. At de Courcelle and Notre Dame they rode through the support staff for a film shoot taking place. They then went along the Lachine Canal and cité du Havre, taking in views of a cruise ship on one side and Habitat '67 on the other. Crossing over the Concorde Bridge they made their way to the St Lambert Locks where after a short ship-in-the-locks delay they gained the south shore. With a strong wind behind them they easily sailed eastwards even though Tibby had a broken spoke in his rear wheel, no matter.
Once past the Jacques Cartier bridge they stopped quite a few times to access and marvel at the new cycling infrastructure, some completed, some near completion. Especially impressive was the new cycling deck and railings opposite the îles de Boucherville. The width was gracious and there were a few riverside rest platforms with benches cantilevered away from the deck to give fine views of the river. A.T. and Tibby turned back with the steeple in the town of Varennes well within view. The winds had dropped significantly and the sun came out of the clouds. The ride back along the same path gave dramatic views of Montreal on the other side of the river: the Olympic stadium, the mountain, a huge grain elevator complex, the container port, the city centre.
At the St Lambert Locks it was decided to take the Seaway path and return by the Estacade. This proved quite interesting. The members were able to access the progress in building the new Champlain Bridge from many angles. The two most interesting were from directly under the main towers for the cable section of the bridge and from the eastern end of îles des Soeurs. At the latter location, lunch was enjoyed on the wooden chaises longues installed on their viewing piazza. By Google Earth's path measuring tool the total distance was approximately 52 kilometers. There was virtually no change in elevation.
October 29 Los Angeles Excursion
Present Tomas, Aidan & Alex; Minutes by Tomas
I went for a good cycle yesterday with my roommate Aidan and former colleague Alex who is now at Perimeter Institute. We took the metro down the Expo line to the stop at La Cienega and Washington Blvds and then cycled along a creek out to the ocean, a distance of about 10km. The bike path out is pleasant in that it is completely removed from traffic, although it was not beautiful until we were about 4km from the ocean, where the creek turned into a proper canal. It ends right at Marina del Rey, which is close to Venice. It was a cloudy day, first in quite some time, but it made for nice cycling temperatures. We then cycled up to Will Rodgers beach, which is north of Santa Monica, perhaps another 10km along the beach. Here the cycling was much more leisurely as the path is more crowded. It is right by the beach and turns quite a bit, very pleasant.
Aidan and I went for a quick swim there, the water was cool and it was hard to warm up without any sun, yet glad we went in. We then cycled back to Santa Monica and took the Expo line metro back to Pasadena.
Length of ride 35 km ??

Der Große Möggelinsee ist ein See auf der Gemarkung der Stadt Zossen im Landkreis Teltow-Fläming im Land Brandenburg.

Geographie
Das Gewässer liegt südlich des Stadtzentrums und dort westlich des Ortsteils Lindenbrück. Östlich liegt der Stadtteil Egsdorf der Stadt Teupitz, südlich der Lindenbrücker Gemeindeteil Zesch am See. Das Gewässer ist Bestandteil des Naturschutzgebietes Großer und Kleiner Möggelinsee.

Geschichte
Der See ist natürlichen Ursprungs, entstand nach der Weichsel-Eiszeit und speist sich hauptsächlich aus Grundwasser. Die Verbindung zum Kleinen Zeschsee wurde jedoch von Menschen vermutlich im Mittelalter angelegt. Dies gilt auch für den Abfluss im Nordosten, der in den Kleinen Möggelinsee führt. Experten des Landes Brandenburg begründen diese Annahme mit begradigten Abschnitten und einigen erkennbaren Durchstichen. Im Schmettauschen Kartenwerk sind die Verbindungen bereits vorhanden.

Mit der Errichtung des Truppenübungsplatzes in Zossen wurde auch der See zwar Bestandteil eines militärischen Sperrgebiets, aber nicht militärisch, sondern nur intensiv zur Fischerei genutzt. Die GSSD beangelten ebenfalls das Gewässer und errichteten zur Nutzung Plattformen im Wasser, Stege, eine Kanalisation sowie am Westufer einige Gebäude. Sie nutzten auch ein zwischen Kleinem und Großem Möggelinsee befindliches Gut, das im Herbst 1994 durch Vandalismus zerstört wurde und schließlich abbrannte.

2010 kam es zu einem Sauerstoffmangel im See, in dessen Folge der Fischbesatz abstarb. Seitens des Eigentümers kam es zu einem Neubesatz mit Aalen, Zander und Karpfen.

Zustand und Nutzung
Untersuchungen aus den Jahren 1994 bis 2008 beschreiben den See als schwach polytroph. Dies lag zum einen in der der intensiven Nutzung der vergangenen Jahrzehnte, zum anderen in durchgeführten Meliorationsmaßnahmen. 2015 war der See verpachtet, jedoch nicht mehr fischereilich genutzt.

Das Gewässer ist von einem nahezu geschlossenen Gürtel aus Röhricht umgeben; vereinzelt wachsen auf der Oberfläche See- und Teichrosen. Unterwasserpflanzen wie das Große Nixenkraut oder das Raue Hornblatt sind nur punktuell vorhanden. Der östliche Bereich des Sees ist stark verlandet. Hier wachsen unter anderem die Krebsschere sowie der Froschbiss. Im Wasser wurden die Karausche sowie der Fischotter nachgewiesen.

Over the years, MegaSaw has become a leading name amongst concrete cutting services, not just here in Melbourne, but across Victoria State and in our neighbouring states. We have worked hard to accomplish this and it certainly has not been an overnight accomplishment. But there are certain aspects to our operation we believe have allowed us to maintain our reputation for excellence in this particular area of expertise.
But being able to do the work well is not enough to earn a reputation for excellence in this business. We believe there are five particular factors that have contributed to it.
There is no substitute for knowledge, experience, skill and professionalism. In our 40 years in business, we have been lucky to have some of the most skilled and professional people in our team, ensuring the highest level of customer service at all times.
The consistency in quality in both the work we do and the personable, friendly customer interaction we are famed for, is hugely important to use. Maintaining it requires constant vigilance but through these four standards we insist upon ourselves, that job becomes easier.
CSDAA Accredited – We are no rogue operators but a recognised leading concrete cutting service provider within the industry and a member of the Concrete Sawing and Drilling Association of Australia (CSDAA). We are completely accountable so you can have total confidence in everything that we do.
It's a pretty obvious observation but the quality of any job done is heavily dependent on the equipment used to do it. At MegaSaw, we always make sure we have the right equipment so that the job is done right and our reputation as leading concrete cutting service providers remains safely intact. It's the reason why we choose to use Husqvarna cutting equipment as our primary tools because of their reliability, technologically advanced components and greater efficiency levels.
So what are the different types of concrete cutting saws we use on our projects? Well, here's a breakdown of what we have and how we use it.
Hand saws – Arguably the most used of our collection of saws are these hand-held ones. They are so popular because they are hand-held, they are very portable and can be used effectively in places that larger saws cannot get to. These locations include indoor spaces, like storage areas, laundry rooms and interior bathrooms. They are perfectly suited for cutting windows and doorway spaces in existing concrete walls, slashing the time it would take a construction worker to 'knock through' the required space – this is especially important when working to tight deadlines.
In spaces where ventilation is a problem, we opt for the hydraulic hand saw. This is to remove the fuel fumes that might otherwise build up and make the air unbreathable. These saws have a capability to cut to depths of 210mm.
Road or floor saws – When it comes to cutting through large areas of concrete floor, pavement, roads or even bridges, efficiency is a key issue. We use the latest technology to ensure those efficiency levels – in fuel consumption, time and labour required, and in overall cost – is achieved. Of course, when a floor is in a confined location, then the handsaw is usually the best option, but outdoors, where there is space and ventilation, a more powerful saw works best.
Once again we use Husqvarna road cutters, a brand that is proven around the world for developing machines that are faster, cleaner and smarter. The powerful modern diesel engines have low emissions and provide fast, efficient sawing. The new, intuitive digital control panel and other smart features help you work more efficiently.
Compact and manoeuverable, these powerful machines can cut to depths of just over 370 mm, and is perfect for the range of floor and road-side projects that we take on regularly. With an advanced fuel-efficient diesel engine, it also has a diesel particle filter that keeps CO2 emissions low.
Our Husqvarna ring saw boasts lasting power, resilience and high-end technology to ensure the surest deep cutting available (270mm). Meanwhile, the 355mm abrasive blades that our ring saw uses is ideal not just for cutting through concrete, but also limestone, lava rock, slate rock, shale and sandstone.
Wall Saws – Whether we are working on a commercial project for major property developers, or on a residential project with homeowners looking for major renovations to be made, the challenge of quickly and efficiency cutting into walls is something we have lots of experience in. But while hand saws are sometimes used by our competitors we know that a specialised wall saw is needed, making them important elements in the arsenal of our concrete cutting service.
Wall saws have been developed to ensure precision and efficiency when cutting through a standing wall. This is normally difficult because the face of the concrete is vertical, and keeping a straight line with just your eyes is no easy task. But the Husqvarna wall saw we use is track mounted, allowing it to maintain a straight cut from top to bottom, What is more, the cut can be as deep as 530mm, which means it can make light work of narrow walls.
Wire Saws – One of the most recent technological developments in concrete cutting services is the use of the wire saw. Its name might suggest a flimsy machine and in the past it has been associated more with very soft materials like wood. However, advances in wire technology has led to the availability of diamond wire saws which offer all the versatility of a traditional wire cutter but the hardness and cutting efficiency of diamond blades. These wire saws can cut through large, dense concrete blocks and even steel.
As a result, MegaSaw is perfectly equipped to safely cut segments from large concrete constructions or structures, like bridges and pillars. The Husqvarna wire saw we use allow for flexible set ups increasing the number of locations they are practical in.
Concrete block cutting – The uses of concrete slabs and blocks have many uses, not simply to use in the construction of a home or office building. So, it's understandable that they would need to be cut to suit a particular purpose. At MegaSaw, we have become one of the leading providers of concrete cutting services because of our expertise in every area of the sector, but we cut our teeth in cutting concrete blocks to size. Once again, we trust in the superior design and efficiency of Husqvarna cutting equipment to ensure the highest quality work is completed for all our clients. So, whether you are installing a concrete post fence, a retaining wall, or a large slab, we can cut and shape to the specifications you require.
Getting onsite quickly with all of the necessary equipment on hand is a cornerstone of any efficient concrete cutting services. It does not take a rocket scientist to work that out, but you'd be surprised how many of our competitors place having a fleet of fully-equipped transit vans way down the list.
At MegaSaw, we have a fleet of 10 such vehicles, always fully serviced and ready to go, and always fully stocked with the saw, blades and other equipment needed to get the job done. Though small and manageable, the vans have ample space to load our road saws and wall saws onboard without any hassle, while the available interior space is also carefully managed and maintained to ensure every component has a spare on hand.
Think about it. When has failure to be prepared ever been a wise move? We are never unprepared and it's a key reason for our clients to stay with us, knowing they can count on us – whatever the job, and every time.
Just like every Australian, we wholeheartedly embrace our responsibility to the environment. And let's face it, anything to do with construction, demolition and cutting up concrete is not going to be neat and clean by definition. We make every effort to ensure that what we do is done in an eco-friendly way.
We minimise our CO2 emissions. For our hydraulic and air-powered saws, we use compressors that enjoy a high level of fuel efficiency, thereby lowering emissions and the carbon footprint.
We recycle waste materials wherever possible, with metals and concrete segments sent to be recycled. Recycling concrete can make a huge difference to the Australian environment. We reuse materials too – or at least, send them for reuse, like large metal segments in reinforced concrete.
Our stance is pretty simple. A greener tomorrow is a better tomorrow for everyone and we are proud to contribute to a greener and environmentally cleaner Australia.
We feel this is the biggest reason we have retained our reputation for excellence as a concrete cutting service provider. It's easy to point to the projects we have competed, especially the large ones working for major national, international and even government clients, but getting there required a set of values in the first place.
Our values have not changed. We started as a local operator and despite our growth, we remain as focused on satisfying the demands of our locally-based clients – be they commercial or residential clients. We are always contactable and always accountable and when it comes to response time, we can confidently say we are unbeatable.
In fact, we are so confident that we encourage all prospective new clients to speak to our former clients and get a full report from them. Just check out the work we have completed.

Ing. Dr. Josef Hrubý (6. srpna 1887 Horní Sytová – 16. listopadu 1942 Věznice Plötzensee) byl český chemik, pedagog a odbojář z období druhé světové války popravený nacisty.

Život
Josef Hrubý se narodil 6. srpna 1887 v Horní Sytové v dnešním okrese Semily v rodině správce místní školy Josefa Hrubého a Emilie rozené Střížkové. V roce 1905 maturoval na vyšší reálce v Jičíně, do roku 1909 studoval technickou chemii na Česká technické vysoké škole v Praze. Mezi lety 1910 a 1911 studoval na technice v Karlsruhe a poté na Česká technické vysoké škole Františka Josefa v Brně, kde v roce 1913 získal titul Doktora chemického inženýrství a kde do roku 1918 působil jako asistent. Pracoval též jako chemik zemského úřadu pro zvelebování živností, jako externí pedagog na Škole uměleckých řemesel v Brně a nakonec na pozici vrchního zemského komisaře chemika. V roce 1915 se oženil s Julií rozenou Kauckou, manželství bylo bezdětné. Byl členem České strany pokrokové, Sokola, vydával týdeník Pokrokový obzor.

Protinacistický odboj
Po německé okupaci v březnu 1939 vstoupil do protinacistického odboje konkrétně do organizace Obrana národa. Za to byl 26. února 1940 ve své kanceláři zatčen gestapem, vězněn nejprve v Brně, poté v Braslau a berlínské věznici Alt Moabit.

I like this article. Just as medical guidelines have both false positives and false negatives, so do legal rules. If we were solely concerned with mitigating the risk of surrogates wrongly overriding the patient's express advance direction instructions, then we would categorically bar that. But the harm from such a rule might exceed the benefits, because it would not allow deviations from the advance directive even when warranted.
It might be an interesting project to take a good subset of cases in which courts override advance directives and see if Bruce et al.'s criteria are satisfied.


So, 15.04 x64, just installed.
I installed the nvidia binary in the old way (console, switching off lightdm) because I got an error about DRI2 authentication.
elect@elect-desktop:~/NetBeansProjects/vogl/vogl_build/release64$ cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DBUILD_X64=On ../..
Anyway let me sum up the story..
But I didnt do have any libEGL.so.1.0.0..
I installed the binaries a third time and it worked..

It is fantastic to see so many inclusive and accessible playgrounds being built. While Hubby was in Brisbane for business I sent him to the recently opened All Abilities Playground in Brisbane Botanic Gardens. He was impressed with the beautiful location and said it is a great place for families to get a break from the busy city. Brisbane City Council describe the park as follows, "the new playground provides access for children in wheelchairs and includes a mix of equipment that is stimulating and interesting for all children. It is supported by additional changes to the park infrastructure, including wider pathways to allow carers to walk alongside wheelchairs and upgraded toilet facilities with ceiling hoist for people with disabilities." Sounds good? Well take a look at some of the photos.
These accessible carousels seem one of the most popular features in accessible parks. They allow a wheelchair easy access (no step up to enter) and two spaces specifically for wheelchairs. Seating allows those that are unsteady on their feet somewhere to sit and also encourages social interaction with peers.
A nest swing makes it possible for a child to lie down or have nestswinga parent or sibling support them in the swing. AJ, BJ and myself have all managed to sit in one of these comfortably.
Hubby was impressed that this digger in the sandpit was positioned at the edge of the soft fall meaning that a child in a wheelchair can use it without needing to go in the sand. Sand and wheelchairs don't mix generally.
Sensory panels are positioned around the park allowing for play in a wheelchair. I can imagine BJ loving a turn on the bongo drums.
Communication boards are a fantastic addition to parks. I love the fact that many accessible parks are installing these boards allowing for spontaneous communication for children who are non-verbal. It also provides a fun environment to practice newly learnt skills for a child in the early stages of using a communication system. For children visiting a park who do not have a disability it opens up the opportunity for a conversation between children and their parents, hopefully resulting in educating everyone that people communicate in different ways. I think it would be great if these boards came with a short explanation at the top describing how these boards help people communicate. It would assist parents in giving their children an informed answer to their 'why' questions.
Large musical pipes look like lots of fun.
There is no Liberty Swing (wheelchair swing) at this park. There is a harnessed swing for those that can get out of their wheelchair. These do provide more support than a general swing but I personally feel the Liberty Swing still has a place in playgrounds. Children or teens who cannot get out of their wheelchairs can't use the nest or harnessed swings. I love the sensation of swinging and I don't think much replaces that liberating feeling. Just my opinion and I know many disagree.
Hubby was very impressed with the paths that surrounded the playground and the overall location of the park is lovely. I hope one day to get to the park myself to check it out with the kids.
The playground is located in City Botanic Gardens, Albert Street, Brisbane. For more information head to the Brisbane City Council's Website.

Inaugural Statewide Charity Surgery Day Restores Sight to 34 Utahns in Need
Charity Surgery Day
Before sunrise on Saturday, October 10, 2015, groups of patients, eye surgeons and chief residents, and more than 40 volunteers at three Utah sites were on hand to participate in the first statewide Charity Surgery Day. By the end of the day, 34 Utahns in need had their lives changed with sight-restoring surgeries. As one grateful patient said after his cataract was removed, "It's a whole new world!"
Progressive Program Expands
Participating organizations included the University of Utah's John A. Moran Eye Center, The Eye Institute of Utah, and the St. George Eye Center—a first in terms of a cooperative effort. In 2012, residents, and medical students at the Moran Eye Center pioneered a charitable model in which the operating room is run on a Saturday as it would be during the week. The difference is that physicians, nurses, and other staff members volunteer their time and patients are not billed for their care. It has proven a cost-efficient way to provide care to low-income, uninsured or under-insured people with treatable eye conditions—many of whom cannot work because of their vision loss.
Complex, Compelling Cases
Often, the cases presented on Charity Surgery Day are complex, and in most cases, patients have nowhere else to turn. Some of the population may be transient, or lack access to transportation, so it can be a challenge to get them to return to their physicians for post-operative exams. Moran solved that challenge this year by doing same-day post-ops on cataract patients.
Patient Melanie Brown, the 53-year-old recipient of a new cornea will continue to be carefully monitored, but her surgery, including a cataract lens replacement, by Dr. Mark Mifflin and chief resident Dr. Russell Swan, went smoothly—much to her relief and that of her daughter, Samantha, who accompanied her to Moran. Melanie, who currently works two, sometimes three part-time jobs and struggles with public transportation, has been suffering from a viral disease that has affected her right eye for the past 20 years. For a while, she was able to control it with medication and drops. But as time went on, she experienced infections and had some scaring in her eye. It got so bad that she had a cornea transplant five years ago. At that time, doctors discovered a cataract, removed it, and replaced it with a lens. There were complications after that, including a scratch and an infection, and her eye started rejecting the first transplant. "I can't see out of that eye at all," she said before her surgery. "It's like looking through a frosted window. I can't drive, and I've been afraid of so many things—riding a bike, even going down a slide with my grandson. I'm not as outgoing as I used to be. I just feel withdrawn. When I found out I was going to get this transplant, I was so excited—it's hard to believe. It's a gift I can't repay, but now maybe I can come back around to myself again. My dream is to use my degree in photography and to document what it's like to see out of just one eye—to tell my story and maybe other people's stories, too."
Tim Haight, age 54, arrived at Moran with his mother, Connie. Walking with a cane and wearing tinted glasses, he was both excited and weary. "He's had a long hard, road," said
Connie. "But on the calendar for today's date, he wrote, 'first ray of good luck.' "
While working as a mechanic at Boeing in Seattle, Tim "exploded a disk" in his back, ended up losing his job, his home, and his car, and had to move back to Draper, settling in his mom's basement. "I have a commercial driver's license, which is kind of my only hope for work now, but when I went to renew it, I failed. I found out I had a cataract. It's like looking through wax paper. You compensate, but it's hard. I read with a magnifying glass. My other eye isn't so great either and my mom has been paying for my medications, so today is amazing. To be honest with you, I didn't think I had a chance. On top of everything else, it's been lonely." Tim's hobbies include making big salt water aquariums. He likes to cook and has been doing his mom's gardening. "I was so happy to see that note on his calendar," says Connie. "This is going make a huge difference."
Bringing Attention to Preventable Blindness
"Good vision plays a basic role in health and quality of life. There are a lot of individuals who lack eye care because they fall outside of the system for a variety of reasons. We want to help everyone who needs it, not just those who can afford it," says Randall J Olson, MD, Chair and CEO of the Moran Eye Center. "We were excited when the ASCRS Foundation approached us about a partnership because it brings so much more attention, financial assistance, and volunteer resources to the problem of preventable blindness in the US. We've seen our program grow from one Saturday a year to two, and we are extremely gratified that others are joining in."
Charity Surgeries Completed October 10:
Moran Eye Center 15 cataracts, 1 cornea transplant
Eye Institute of Utah 14 cataract, 1 trabulectomy
St. George Eye Center 3 cataracts
In 2014, Moran was selected as one of five founding members of the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery (ASCRS) Foundation's Operation Sight network, whose mission is to provide a centralized approach for organizations and volunteer surgeons wishing to end cataract* blindness in the US. Saturday's program was funded in part by ASCRS and supported by organizations who donated supplies, medication, equipment, and cataract lenses. The Utah Lions Eye Bank donated tissue for a cornea transplant at Moran.
The following organizations donated supplies medication, equipment, and cataract lenses:
Abbot Medical Optics ─ intraocular lenses, post-op drops, misc. supplies for surgery; ALCON – intraocular lenses, misc. supplies for surgery; Synergy Health – Surgical packs used in OR and for sterilizing; MST – OR/surgical supplies; FCI Ophthalmics ─ OR/surgical supplies; Dutch Ophthalmic USA ─ OR/surgical supplies.
*A cataract is a clouding of the lens of the eye—an area that is normally transparent. The clouding prevents light rays from passing through the lens and focusing on the retina. Over time, the cataract may grow larger, making it difficult to see. This condition plays a major role in unemployment and even homelessness, as visual impairment makes it difficult to find or keep a job. Cataract surgery, in which the lens is removed and replaced with a clear, artificial lens, is one of the safest and most common surgeries around the world, enabling people to greatly improve their health and quality of life.

Museum in the 'disjointed Tower'
Arany Bicentenary in Salonta
2017 will mark the bicentenary of János Arany's birth. The Hungarian parliament has declared it a 'János Arany Memorial Year'. Throughout the year events will be held in the poet's birthplace of Nagyszalonta (today Salonta in Romania). Other locations will also see celebrations hosted by, for example, the Szigligeti Theatre in Oradea, the Hungarian Academy of Sciences and the Hungarian Academy of Arts. We spoke with the director of Salonta's János Arany Memorial Museum, Zoltán Darvasi, about the institute's history, its collection and the fact that the permanent exhibition of the 117-year-old museum (making it Romania's oldest literary museum), which has not changed for 30 years, requires some revitalisation. The story of the János Arany Memorial Museum began on the day the poet died, 22 October 1882. In 1885 his son, the MP László Arany, offered his father's mementos, his collection and manuscripts to the town. In fact, he urged the creation of an association, to which he donated the objects. The letter about his father's legacy can still be seen in the museum today. The association was set up and a collection got underway to realise the aims. There were theatre performances and concerts to raise donations and many pledges were made such that there was enough to cover the establishment of the János Arany Memorial Museum. The town set up a János Arany Memorial Association and the first idea was to purchase the building where Arany was born, but its residents didn't want to sell. As a temporary solution, a memorial room opened in the school to house the objects, but it was clear that eventually it would prove to be too small. Searching for an appropriate location, it was decided to purchase the so-called Broken Tower and the memorial museum opened there in August 1899. When the birthplace eventually became vacant a collection was initiated enabling purchase of the building. The local authority renovated it in 2010, in fact it had to be almost completely rebuilt. This year, in view of the anniversary, it has been repainted and its garden has been landscaped. However, not many people are aware of its existence, even though the building has carried a memorial plaque for a long time, but in the public mind it is still a residential building, which cannot be visited. Attempts are being made to change that and increase publicity so that innovative literature lessons could be held there, and the idyll of Arany's Family Circle be revived, with it sweep-pole well and mulberry tree. The association would also like to update the permanent exhibition. The Petőfi Literary Museum prepared a plan four years ago, but the local authority did not accept it and support for the undertaking was not found. During the memorial year, they will be involved in the celebratory events. In the town all the important dates will be dedicated to János Arany throughout the year.
