Patna's Rahman Carves Out IAS-IPS Officers For Rs 11 Gurudakshina
Good teachers are the reason why ordinary students dream to do extraordinary things, like how Acharya Chanakya taught an ordinary boy from Bihar and created the great emperor Chandragupta Maurya out of him. Here's another man from the same land who is carving out civil servants in his Gurukul against gurudakshina of Rs 11, 21 or 51.
Dedicating his life towards teaching, Rahman (49) has founded Adamya Aditi Gurukul in Patna and has given dozens of administrative and police officers to the country. Unlike the institutes that charge lakhs of rupees as fee, Rahman asks for a meagre gurudakshina. Over the years, many students taught in the Gurukul have successfully passed the top competitive examinations of the country and have become doctors, engineers and administrative officers against a gratitude amount.
Armed with triple Master of Arts degrees, Rahman founded Adamya Aditi Gurukul in January 1994 and his students made history in the very first year. That year the state government of Bihar required to appoint 4,000 police inspectors and 1,100 students from the gurukul made the cut and were appointed for the service.
Not just Bihar, but aspirants from Jharkhand, Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand and Madhya Pradesh come to the gurukul to seek Rahman's guidance. There is not even one competitive examination in the country where the students of Adamya Aditi Gurukul haven't left their mark.
Risen From The Dust
Rahman was born into a poverty-stricken family and is filled with strong desire to uplift students who come from a weak financial background. He says poverty is not a state of helplessness instead it is a symbol of success that will be. With dedication, hard work, and passion everything can be achieved, he says.
Are you wondering how Rahman manages his operations on such meager amounts? Well, he has created several success stories in the gurukul and his ex-students donate money boosting the next batches.

L' ou Twelfth est une fête nord-irlandaise célébrée le . Cette fête commémore la bataille de la Boyne, en , et la victoire du roi Guillaume III d'Orange-Nassau contre l'ancien souverain anglais Jacques II.

Des marches organisées par l'Ordre d'Orange se déroulent dans chaque comté, tandis que des feux de joie sont allumés le soir du . Les manifestations liées à la célébration de cette fête ont régulièrement donné lieu à des débordements opposant nationalistes catholiques et loyalistes ou orangistes protestants, mais dans une moindre mesure depuis les accords de paix du Vendredi saint.

En , l'ancien Tánaiste (vice premier ministre irlandais)  a déclaré que l'Orange Day devrait être une fête nationale également en république d'Irlande.

Des drapeaux irlandais, palestiniens et européens sont souvent brulés au sommet des bûchers à cette occasion.

Home Business You Don't Become a Lesser Man for Earning Less
You Don't Become a Lesser Man for Earning Less
Source: http://www.fitforlife.com/
Our ego need not shatter and our manliness doesn't take a back seat if we earn less than our ladylove
Social studies say that families can breakup regardless of whether the man or the lady in family is the breadwinner. The other side of the coin was that families where the lady of the house earned more remained stable and were less likely to fall apart.
The problem is that a lower earning man challenges society's historical practices. It may make the man feel he's a lesser being. Happily enough, that's an exception, not the norm. These are the issues that are likely to crop up.
For the majority for families with a higher earning woman at the helm, the relationship doesn't take a knock. The man brings home a source of income that's enough to look after his needs. Moreover, he has the opportunity to use his income to boost the family finances. If that's the scenario, there are fewer arguments.
If partners with different incomes stay apart it might not create problems. It poses a challenge when they decide to share a common space. Most couples prefer to work out a money pooling pact. The responsibilities are clearly defined. The woman (higher earner) can take care of rent, taxes and insurance (the bigger liabilities) while the man chips in with household expenses and utilities. Investments become shared decisions.
Differing attitude towards expenses and the way expenses are individually handled can generate conflict. One partner may be keen on investing for the long-term and may be fighting with the other who wants to live life extravagantly. Men can nip such issues in the bud by assuming financial responsibility for the funds that are pooled for the benefit of the family.
In a society where norms are changing by the day, a stay at home dad is a workable idea. Many men say they were never aware that they had in intuitive grasp for house work, cooking and child rearing (among other things) until it was thrust upon them. The arrangement enables the higher earner to successfully pursue a demanding career without having to look over her shoulder.
The teasing co-worker is a perennial problem for men that earn less than their ladies. Men who have gone through the good natured ribbing say it was trying initially. The joke ceased to take effect when workers sensed that the partners were bonding well and the family remained stable. These men laughingly say they ended up getting a lot of support from their former teasers.
Last but not the least is the nagging sense of financial inequality that bugs men earning less money. Respondents in a survey stated that they coped by becoming more involved in financial decisions. They focused more on securing the family's future. Women who earn more admire the man who takes control of the home situation and kick starts planning that benefits the family.

In Gilded Age America, rampant inequality gave rise to a new form of Christianity, one that sought to ease the sufferings of the poor not simply by saving their souls, but by transforming society. In Union Made, Heath W. Carter advances a bold new interpretation of the origins of American Social Christianity. While historians have often attributed the rise of the Social Gospel to middle-class ministers, seminary professors, and social reformers, this book places working people at the very center of the story. The major characters--blacksmiths, glove makers, teamsters, printers, and the like--have been mostly forgotten, but as Carter convincingly argues, their collective contribution to American Social Christianity was no less significant than that of Walter Rauschenbusch or Jane Addams.
Leading readers into the thick of late-19th-century Chicago's tumultuous history, Carter shows that countless working-class believers participated in the heated debates over the implications of Christianity for industrializing society, often with as much fervor as they did in other contests over wages and the length of the workday. The city's trade unionists, socialists, and anarchists advanced theological critiques of laissez faire capitalism and protested "scab ministers" who cozied up to the business elite. Their criticisms compounded church leaders' anxieties about losing the poor, such that by the turn-of-the-century many leading Christians were arguing that the only way to salvage hopes of a Christian America was for the churches to soften their position on "the labor question." As denomination after denomination did just that, it became apparent that the Social Gospel was, indeed, ascendant--from below.
At a time when the fate of the labor movement and rising economic inequality are once more pressing social concerns, Union Made opens the door for a new way forward--by changing the way we think about the past.
Heath W. Carter is an associate professor at Valparaiso University, where he teaches a variety of courses on the history of the modern United States. He is co-editor of both The Pew and the Picket Line: Christianity and the American Working Class and Turning Points in the History of American Evangelicalism.
When I ask college students what they know about the origins of Labor Day, the answer is usually straightforward: not much. But if the labor movement's story is not on the tip of their tongues, it says less about them than it does about our era.

US politician voices support for Indians embroiled in fake..
129 students have been detained at 30 detention centers across the US by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) due to their enrollment in the fake University of Farmington, created by the Homeland Security officials as part of a sting operation. The American Telangana Association, a US Congress representative has voiced support for the release of the eight Telangana students. The association has appealed the politicians to facilitate voluntary departure for the detained students and to ensure that their re-entry to the United States won't be barred.


There's something fascinating about the graphic culture in Greece, maybe it's because of their alphabet or maybe it's just that some of the things you get to see are so old, yet so modern?
First thing first though, blue is no joke here, it actually feels like there's a strong pressure to do things with at least a touch of blue. It turns out that the Greeks used to believe it protected them from the evil-eye, I guess that makes a good excuse.

The word, "bokash", in Japanese means "obscuring the direct effectiveness". In 1961, Japan enacted the "Fundamental Law of Agriculture" in hopes of increasing the poor rural farmers economic horizon. Soon afterwards the Japanese government began to teach these same poor farmers how to grow organically with inexpensive fermenting and composting techniques. By the early 1970's the farmers (on their own initiative) invented a fast method to decompose their organic feed stocks and at the same time have a slower nutrient release.
The word "bokashi" has been slightly modified in the West to "bocashi". The word "bocashi" comes up in conversations, recipes and literature concerning composting, quite often. I have noticed that the word is used loosely to signify some sort of Japanese compost making recipe. But there is really no knowledge of how it originated, it's reasons why nor how. The bocashi making recipes normally refer to a compost to be used as fertilizer or as an anaerobic, home, kitchen system which neatly composts your meals leftovers under the sink. No method is right nor wrong. I take my hats off to the Japanese ancestors for working with composts a whole lot longer than us internet, newbies to organics.
60% humidity- Plenty of water with a 30% raw sugar content such as molasses.
In making bocashi, the general idea is to have all the components mixed evenly fro even fermentation. This is usually accomplished placing the rice hulls on the bottom first, then making consecutive layers of the other components, mixing them well at the end. The entire mix should containing a 60% moisture level. This level is usually understood to mean wetting the components as the layers are laid until they are evenly moistened similar to a sponge that is wrong out. The moisture lets the microbes move about and gives them a place to deposit their metabolites. The MM or EM microorganisms are prepared before hand and normally placed in a backpack pump and sprayed evenly over each layer as it is laid down.
The pile is covered with plastic and let to ferment. The temperature rises to 70C within as little as 24 hours. The pile is turned every day so as to keep the components degrading aerobically. Within 8 days the bocashi should be close to stabilizing and cooling off. This signifies the process is complete.
With so little time in compost mode, much of the nitrogen is still in the ammonium NH4+ phase of decomposition. But when it is added as an amendment to pots and crops, nitrosomonas and eventually nitrobacter bacterias convert it into soluble and usable nitrate, NO3- for plant uptake. These last decomposition steps release the nitrates little at a time to the potted plant. This creates, in effect, a slow release type of compost/fertilizer… called Bocashi in the west and Bokashi in the east.

Expert insights Buying $80 million Warners Bay residential development, Water's Edge now 70 percent sold
$80 million Warners Bay residential development, Water's Edge now 70 percent sold
| Jun 20,2018
Water's Edge at Warners Bay has been given the green light for construction within weeks.
Water's Edge, which will comprise 112 apartments, most with lake or pool deck views, is being developed by the construction company BLOC.
PRDnationwide agent Mark Kentwell says Water's Edge has sold quickly since its release in September last year.
"More than 70% of the apartments have now sold off the plan," he said.
He is now selling the remainder and inviting expressions of interest for the ground floor commercial spaces.
"Warners Bay has been such a well-kept secret for so long, but thanks to the recent foreshore rejuvenation and the opening of so many great cafes and restaurants, we understand why Water's Edge has proven so popular.
The $80 million project will also incorporate some retail and commercial spaces on the ground floor.
Construction is expected to be finished by early 2020 at the site adjoining King Street and the Esplanade.

Q: jQuery plugin - issue using HTML5 data attributes as alternate config options I am trying to make my first jQuery plugin and I have hit a bit of a problem trying to extend the plugin to accept HTML5 data attributes. A user should be able to initiate and tweak settings by just using data attributes in the HTML (a user could also still init in script if so desired).
Some example HTML:

Phone 1

The data-foo-scroll auto inits the plugin fine but im now trying (and failing) to pass in the fadeIn attribute.
Here is my plugin js:
;(function ( $, window, document, undefined ) {

    var pluginName = "fooScroll",
        defaults = {
            loadingText:    "loading",
            loadingClass:   "foo-loading",
            showText:       "show more",
            nextLink:       ".next",
            fadeIn:         500,
            autoLoad:       false,
            autoLoadOffset: 100
        };

    function Plugin( element, options ) {
        this.element = element;
        this.options = $.extend( {}, defaults, options );
        this._defaults = defaults;
        this._name = pluginName;
        this._next = $(this._defaults.nextLink).attr('href');
        this.init();
    }

    Plugin.prototype = {

        init: function() {
            $(this.options.nextLink).hide();
            this.getNextPage(this.element, this.options);
        },

        getNextPage: function(el, options) {
            var self = this;
            if(this.options.autoLoad===true) {
                this.options.showText = '&nbsp';
                $(window).scroll(function() {
                   if($(window).scrollTop() + $(window).height() == $(document).height()) {
                       $('#foo-more').trigger('click');
                   }
                });
            };
            $(el).after("
"+this.options.showText+"
")
            $("#foo-more").on("click", function(event){
                $('#foo-more a').text(options.loadingText);
                $('#foo-more').addClass(options.loadingClass);
                $.ajax({
                    url: self._next,
                    datatype: 'html',
                    success: function (data) {
                        var list;
                        $(el).attr('id') ? list = '#'+$(el).attr('id'): list = '.'+$(el).attr('class');
                        $(el).append('
');
                        $(el).find('div:last').append( $('
').html(data).find(list).children()).hide();

                        // if ajax returns any images then delay DOM update until they are all loaded
                        if ($('
').html(data).find(list).find('img').length > 0) {
                            $(el).find('img').on('load', function() {
                                self.showNextPage();
                            });
                        } else {
                            self.showNextPage();
                        }
                        // update show me more link with latest href
                        self._next = $('
').html(data).find(options.nextLink).attr('href');
                        // if ajax doesnt return a next button then hide show me more link
                        if (($('
').html(data).find(options.nextLink).length == 0)) $('#foo-more').remove();
                    }
                })
                event.preventDefault();
            });
        },

        showNextPage: function() {
            $(this.element).find('div.foo-new:last').fadeIn(this.options.fadeIn);
            $('#foo-more a').text(this.options.showText);
            $('#foo-more').removeClass(this.options.loadingClass);
        }

    };

    $.fn[pluginName] = function ( options ) {
        return this.each(function () {
            var objD = $(this).data();
            console.log(objD);
            if (!$.data(this, "plugin_" + pluginName)) {
                $.data(this, "plugin_" + pluginName, new Plugin( this, options ));
            }
        });
    };

    // auto init
    $("[data-foo-scroll='true']").fooScroll();

})( jQuery, window, document );

note the console.log does print out:
Object { fooFadein=1, fooScroll=true }

So its being picked up but I cant work out how to actually 'use' it as part of the plugin.
Any help or pointers greatly appreciated.
Cheers,

A: THis docs explain it pretty clearly, have a read through them.
http://api.jquery.com/data/
What I see you are trying to do is: var fooFadein = $(this).attr('foo-fadeIn')

A: If I understand you correctly, wouldn't you just have to merge the custom attribute values into the option parameter to the plugin?
$.fn[pluginName] = function ( options ) {
  return this.each(function () {
    if (!$.data(this, "plugin_" + pluginName)) {
      var objD = $(this).data();
      $.extend(options, objD); // extend with data-stuff
      $.data(this, "plugin_" + pluginName, new Plugin( this, options ));
    }
  });
};

A: Ok, found out how to get it working (see below) Plugin could be something like this (extending jquery plugin boilerplate):
function Plugin( element, options, objD ) {
    this.element = element;
    this.options = $.extend( {}, defaults, options, objD );
    this._defaults = defaults;
    this._name = pluginName;
    this.init();
}

$.fn[pluginName] = function ( options ) {
  return this.each(function () {
    if (!$.data(this, "plugin_" + pluginName)) {
        var objD = $(this).data();
        $.data(this, "plugin_" + pluginName, new Plugin( this, options, objD ));
    }
  });
};

Im no guru but works well for me

In the past 10 years, Chinese smartphone brands have not only topped sales in the home market, but also outshone major foreign rivals in many emerging and developed economies. The success of four of those brands – Oppo and Vivo as well as recently established OnePlus and Realme – can be directly attributed to the guiding hand and investment savvy of reclusive Chinese billionaire entrepreneur, investor and philanthropist Duan Yongping, the South China Morning Post reports. He is the Founder and Chairman of privately held BBK Electronics Corp, a 24-year-old company based in the southern coastal city of Dongguan that now runs one of the world's largest and most sophisticated electronics supply chains behind the production of a range of smartphones for the global market.
Duan, who will turn 58 years old next month, is widely regarded as the "godfather" of the Chinese smartphone industry for developing two brands, Oppo and Vivo, as large global players competing against the likes of Samsung Electronics, Apple, LG Electronics and Chinese rival Huawei Technologies. OnePlus and Realme, which are backed by BBK and other investors, aim to be the next big Chinese brands to conquer international markets. The Chinese billionaire was also identified last year as an early investor in Pinduoduo, China's third largest e-commerce company, which was founded by his friend and protégé Colin Huang. Duan's net worth was estimated at CNY10 billion, according to the 2018 Hurun China Rich List.
Born in March 1961 into a modest family in Nanchang, capital of Jiangxi province, Duan in 1978 entered Zhejiang University in Hangzhou, where he majored in wireless electronics engineering. After a short stint as a teacher at the adult education center of the Beijing Radio Tube Factory, Duan pursued further studies at Beijing's elite Renmin University of China, where he earned a master's degree in economics in 1989. That same year, he joined Zhongshan Yihua Group in Guangdong to manage an ailing factory and turned it into a profitable business. He set up a unit that made cheap video game consoles, Subor Electronics Industry Corp, where he served as its Chief Executive. He left Yihua in August 1995 and established electronics firm BBK, in which he had a controlling 70% stake, which was later reduced to 17%. It became the leading vendor of VCD and DVD players in China. Executives at BBK later founded Oppo, Vivo, OnePlus and Realme, the South China Morning Post reports.
Oppo and Vivo, respectively, were China's second and third biggest smartphone suppliers in 2018, with a combined 40% market share, according to estimates by research firm Canalys. They were behind market leader Huawei, but ahead of Xiaomi and Apple in a year when domestic smartphone shipments fell to 396 million units, compared with 459 million in 2017. In the global smartphone market last year, Oppo and Vivo took the fifth and six spots, respectively, with a combined 15% share, according to data from Counterpoint Research.


My experience learning foreign languages has been unproductive. I took three years of French in high school. I can only remember random French words like pantalon (pants) and s'il vous plait (please). In college, I took 6 credit hours of Spanish. I think my children know more Spanish than I do from watching Dora the Explorer and Diego. I wish I would have retained more. If anything, I could impress my children by saying cool things like "Donde esta el bano? -- Where is the bathroom? (Note: I had to use Google Translate). Additionally, retaining more from that 8 A.M. Spanish Class, that I must have slept though, would have certainly helped me this week as I read books to my children by Arthur Dorros that included many Spanish words.
Arthur Dorros learned to speak Spanish while traveling and living for a short time in Latin America. In addition to teaching himself Spanish he also taught himself other skills like carpentry, agricultural work, teaching, longshoreman work, photography, and children's book writing and illustrating. He decided to become a children's book author around the age of 30 because he thought, "it would be fun to put all those interests together and make children's picture books." (arthurdorros.com). In an interview with Good Conversations he described how teaching himself to write children's books was a "struggle" and it was something he spent a lot of time trying to "figure out". The variety of experiences in his life have taught him that, "You can get good at it if you try."
While reading Arthur Dorros's biography on his website, I found another interesting statement, "Part of writing is much like being a detective with senses as alert as possible, always on the lookout for new ideas and pieces to put the whole story together." I thought it would be fun for my children to explore their five senses like a detective. The best place I could think of to try a little sensory-detective-work was at a bakery. I knew for sure there would be something they could see, hear, touch, smell, and taste during an afternoon visit.
My daughter picked a beautiful tulip cookie for her treat.
My son picked a tasty daisy cookie for his treat.
Even the little guy got to enjoy a little tiramisu.
We enjoyed our visit and our treats.
There is a robber in the bakery.
So he tried the cake, but he did not like the cake.
So, he did not eat it.
My pronunciation of Spanish words improved throughout the week as we enjoyed many books by Arthur Dorros including Papa and Me, Mama and Me, and Abuela, which was named by the New York Public Library as one of the "100 Picture Books Everyone Should Know". Our favorite book was Numero Uno which Arthur Dorros wrote along with his son Alex Dorros. The video interview below from Book Lust, describes their experience working together to make the book which was originally conceived by Alex as school project in the sixth grade! In all of these books I appreciated the context clues that helped me understand the meaning of the Spanish words. My first instinct was to look for a glossary when I came across a Spanish word but I quickly learned it was unnecessary.
You might also want to check out books by Arthur Dorros that are not bilingual including many books about science. His most popular would be Ant Cities, a Reading Rainbow selection. I enjoyed reading Me and My Shadow which includes many activities to explore shadows like drawing shadows, exploring eclipses with flashlights, and shadow puppet shows!

If a dog tries to bite, Someone from colleagues prepares an intrigue. Sometimes the image of a biting dog symbolizes a friend who does not dare to talk about the started intrigue.
This image may also come from the subconscious of the dreamer, which warns to pay attention to the environment and not to trust everyone in a row.
Run away from the dog in a dream — a psychological block, the fear of new relationships. The cause of the block may be past betrayal in the past.
Fear of a dog in a dream may indicate a difficult relationship with people, closeness and distrust. The cause of complex relationships can be the rejection of the dreamer's criticism from others, condemnation of his actions.
The corpse of an animal in a dream can become a symbol of irreconcilable enmity. The parties to the conflict are likely to be parted as enemies.
Sleep warns not to get excited, not to go into conflict or sustain a pause in communication.
What does a dream mean in which dead home dog dream alive? This story heralds reconciliation with a friend.
Often, such a dream may portend a meeting with someone whom they no longer hope to see.
Accidentally or intentionally kill the dog in the dream foreshadows conflict with loved ones. Watch your words and actions so as not to offend those around you with your actions.
Killing an attacking animal — to the successful reflection of attacking opponents. You will successfully cope with the task and do not allow the development of a protracted conflict. Shoot the dog from a gun — to strive to retain the last word in the dispute.
There is a danger of being alone because of his character trait.

It's Time to Stop Despairing
15 January, 2021 / Duncan Whitmore	/ Leave a comment
By Duncan Whitmore
It is difficult not to feel despondent when considering the enormous loss of liberty that has been inflicted by government lockdown policies in response to COVID-19. This despair has been compounded for many on the right by the final failure of Donald Trump's attempt to challenge November's presidential election result, together with the sudden, panicked attempt to remove him from office just days before his term expires, as well as the purging of him and prominent cheerleaders from social media. In this vein, the following quotations – all from prominent libertarians or conservative-libertarians – are not unrepresentative:
"2021 is going to be worse than 2020. Sorry"
"You ain't seen nothing yet: the worst is yet to come"
"The lockdown is permanent, get used to it. It is all about political control. NOBODY HEALTHY IS DYING."
It is true that any opponents of lockdown policies need to have a realistic grasp of why these draconian policies have been resorted to and how the situation is likely to pan out. Indeed, enough is now known about COVID-19 for us to be well past the point of lending the state the benefit of the doubt in its decision to continue with those policies. Thus, explanations other than the protection of health must be sought.
Nevertheless, the amount of time spent despairing is beginning to come at the expense of time that could be spent working out how to fight back. Happily, Sean Gabb has helped to buck the trend by offering some reasons as to why the past year has not been all that bad. While Gabb acknowledges that his personal circumstances have contributed much to his relatively sanguine view, it is, nevertheless, a refreshing counterbalance to the torrent of doomerism that seems to be erupting from the right.

Against Lockdown – The Libertarian Case
5 November, 2020 2 January, 2021 / Duncan Whitmore	/ 5 Comments
Although I have written on the topic of how libertarian property rights can be applied to the situation of viruses in two, previous essays, it is useful to summarise this again for a clearer picture. Such an endeavour seems necessary now more than ever, for in spite of increased opposition compared to the first round of lockdowns earlier this year, the various nations of the UK are again heading into some from of lockdown mode as the winter draws near.
Most sceptics of lockdown and restrictive policies designed to "curb" the onset of COVID-19 approach the matter from a utilitarian or technocractic angle – i.e. whether the measures that states are pursuing are an effective and/or proportionate response to the spread of the virus. While this is an invaluable exercise, it does not challenge the principle that the state has the prerogative to obliterate rights and freedoms in the manner that it has. In other words, the notion that, ultimately, our rights could be infringed on a future occasion when someone deems that it is "effective" and "proportionate" to do so is left untouched. Equally intact, therefore, is the notion that our rights are not immovably tied to our status as individual human beings, but are little more than privileges enjoyed at the sufferance of the state. This is not to imply that the principle of liberty has been ignored – former Supreme Court Justice Lord Sumption has been a notable high profile critic of the government in this regard. But the general opposition to lockdowns and other restrictions seems to assume that their only problem is that COVID-19 is simply not a big enough crisis to justify the present level of state intrusion. Thus, there is still a need to emphasise the fact that our rights exist not only in fair weather but in storms and hurricanes also – in fact, it is precisely in exceptional circumstances when rights need the most protection for it is always on these occasions that the state exploits fear and anxiety of unknown dangers so as to achieve greater incursions upon our liberty.

A Second Open Letter to my MP on COVID
21 September, 2020 / Neil Lock	/ 3 Comments
I sent this to "my" MP, Jeremy Hunt, earlier today.
Dear Mr Hunt,
When I wrote to you about five weeks ago, the main subject of my letter was de-carbonization of transport. However, I also drew your attention to an article I had had published on the COVID lockdowns, and told you that I had found them to be "way over the top compared to what was actually necessary."
I have very recently published another article on the subject of COVID – here: https://misesuk.org/2020/09/20/covid-19-is-the-virus-weakening/. The figures show that, over the course of the last three months or so, the lethality of the virus in the UK (as measured by number of deaths divided by number of new cases as at 14 days beforehand) has gone down by a factor of around 60. This means that the virus is now considerably less dangerous than, for example, 'flu. And so, all lockdown measures ought to be released as soon as possible.
And yet, there is now serious talk of a re-lockdown at national level! For "two weeks." We know from last time round what that means; we were told it would be three weeks, and now it's been six months. Moreover, it feels like we are locked down harder than at any previous stage. And they want to make it longer, and worse!
The people-haters, that want to lock down as hard as possible for as long as possible and don't care a damn about how much pain they cause to people, seem to be winning inside your party and others. And the arbitrary and extreme fines they are demanding are a sign of a rapacious monster that has lost all control over itself. I remind you of Edmund Burke's aphorism that "Bad laws are the worst sort of tyranny." And yet, these aren't even bad laws – they are simply decrees of a small cadre! That isn't the rule of law. That isn't England. Moreover, in a democracy, government is supposed to be on the side of the people. It must never do anything which causes harm to those people without full and rigorous justification, which will stand up to scrutiny by objectively minded people (including me).
A national re-lockdown, in my opinion, would result in a meltdown in the public mood. As to myself, I have already lost all respect for the parliament as a whole, and for the great majority of those in it. Such a move would turn my disrespect into contempt and hatred, or worse.
So, I ask you immediately to add your voice in parliament to those who say "No" to any new lockdowns, and to demand that the public be provided with full, objective justification of every one of the measures that are already in place. Moreover, I would ask you, please, to use your seniority and your relevant expertise to metaphorically box the ears of those that are doing these things to us.

COVID-19: Is the Virus Weakening?
20 September, 2020 20 September, 2020 / Neil Lock	/ 1 Comment
By Neil Lock
This is another of my articles on the numbers relating to the COVID epidemic world-wide. It follows on from the "Lock-downs or Cock-ups?" article, here: https://wattsupwiththat.com/2020/08/11/covid-19-lock-downs-or-cock-ups/. This time, I'll focus on the question: what proportion of confirmed new cases, at each stage of the epidemic, are actually leading to deaths? That ratio ought to be a major factor in any rational consideration of when to release lockdowns (or not); because it hugely affects the load on health care systems. Avoiding health system overload, so we were assured at the beginning of the epidemic, was the only reason for going into lockdown – for three weeks. (Cough).
Viruses and Property Rights
22 May, 2020 / Duncan Whitmore	/ 4 Comments
In recent post on the LRC blog, Michael S Rozeff has attempted to demonstrate that pro-freedom arguments made in terms of self-ownership, private property, or the non-aggression principle are ill-equipped to handle a problem such as a contagious virus. It is not entirely clear whether Rozeff is arguing that "property rights solutions" are inherently unable to address such matters, and/or whether they are merely unpersuasive compared to other arguments that libertarians have at their disposal (such as utilitarian arguments). Either way, however, much of what Rozeff says is severely wanting.
Says Rozeff:
Libertarians who attempt to apply 100% body ownership to every situation run into insoluble problems. They frequently try to solve them by deciding what is aggression and what is not, or equivalently who has rights or not, or equivalently whose 100% body property rights are being violated. Sometimes the suggested solutions involve odd behavior that looks immoral, and the confusing and arguable rejoinder is that body ownership theory is a theory of rights, not morality.
In the first place, it is misleading to characterise the libertarian position as one of "100% body ownership" for it conveys the impression that anyone should be able, quite literally, to do whatever they like with their bodies. The correct position is that you should be able to do what you want with your body provided that it does not physically interfere with the body or property of another person without that person's consent. Rozeff, both here and later, seems to ignore this basic but important qualification. Continue reading →
The Barber of Owosso
19 May, 2020 / Neil Lock	/ 7 Comments
In Owosso, Michigan, USA, a 77-year-old barber named Karl Manke has taken on the might of the state of Michigan, by opening his barber shop in defiance of "laws" made by the state government. He's been suppressed. But he's gathering support:
https://eu.detroitnews.com/story/business/2020/05/18/owosso-barber-calls-all-business-owners-open-up/5214002002/
I confess that I have an interest in this case. I've had a beard for 47 years now, and I like to keep it neatly trimmed. Luckily, I happened to go to my barber just a couple of days before the UK "lockdown" in the middle of March. But now, my beard is trending out of control. (A bit like the hysteria about "climate change.") And under current UK plans it's "illegal" for his (or anyone else's) barber shop to open until July 4th at least! By that time, everyone who meets me will think I've gone Muslim. A claim which I can't falsify until the pubs re-open.
Now let's look at how US politicians have behaved on this issue, shall we?
Kansas Democrat governor Laura Kelly took a haircut in early May, which she claimed was done by her husband. Republicans congratulated him – a lung doctor, would you believe! – on his barbering skills. Can we believe either side? No. But that same governor sought to forcibly close down a barber shop in Wichita:
https://www.kansas.com/news/coronavirus/article242647601.html
As to Chicago mayor Lori Lightfoot:
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8211169/Chicago-Mayor-Lori-Lightfoot-defends-decision-haircut-amid-city-wide-lockdown.html
Look, Lori, in your part of the world (and I lived in Chicago for a year, 30 years ago) you're supposed to have something called "the rule of law." That means that what is wrong for one person to do in a given situation, is wrong for another. No exceptions.
This suggests to me that honest people should focus, hard, on the dishonesty, hypocrisy and double standards that are rife among our enemies. Don't let any of them get away with anything.
You schoot ze lockdown violator on ze right, Klaus, I schoot ze vun on ze left
7 May, 2020 7 May, 2020 / Neil Lock	/ 24 Comments
Never before has UK government bias in favour of the establishment been clearer, than in the recent cases of Neil Ferguson and Nigel Farage.
Neil Ferguson of Imperial College, having supplied the dubious (and unprofessional) "evidence" that was used to "justify" the "no non-essential travel" lockdown in the first place, will not be prosecuted for inviting a woman from across London to his home while he was still supposed to be in 14-day quarantine.
Yet Nigel Farage, who has never been in quarantine, gets lectured by police for going to Dover to investigate the possibility that the UK "border force" is letting people in to the UK who should not be. At a time when, if even one of them has the virus, efforts to contain the epidemic will be seriously compromised.
One law for the establishment, one for the plebs and the "bad boys" like Nigel Farage, no?
On a lighter note, yesterday my camera took me on a walking tour of my local area, to record the lockdown experience. I won't bother to upload all the photos here, just give you the link: http://www.honestcommonsense.co.uk/2020/05/still-locked-down.html.

It calls HomeController's Index Method. What am I doing wrong? In startup.cs I have following in Configure Method.

Hey, Pals. Thanks fo your answers. I forgot to mention that I was running project in visual studio code. So when I ran project in vs2017, it is working now. So may be this is build issue. So now question turns to how to build (or rebuild) project in visual studio code?

A: You need to define Route for the controller.
Then decorate action either by [HttpGet] or [HttpPost]
[Route("api/MyLogin")]
public class LoginController : Controller
{
    [HttpGet]
    public IActionResult Callback()
    {
        return View();

The black kite floated in midair, single feathers on the tips of its wings splayed like fingers as it paused, turned slightly, then dropped earthwards in an instant, to a treasure only it could see. With a beat or two it was up again, circling higher and higher over the Addis Ababa traffic, and away to the hills. The first scene to grab me in a new city, after leaving the hurly-burly of the airport, always makes an indelible mark. In Addis, it was that black kite - and it proved a fitting image for what Ethiopia had in store. Within hours I'd be off on a helicopter safari across the northern highlands: drifting over mountaintops, swooping down to savour some delight below, then flying off across vast, open landscapes. In a region of rough roads and long, dusty journeys, I'd be flitting with ease from ancient, rock-hewn churches to dizzily high escarpments, the chopper reducing travel hours to mere minutes.
'Ready to go?' asked pilot Ben Simpson, who met us after the short hop from Addis to the northern town of Mekele. Four passengers, travelling light. He ushered us through the departures hall at Mekele airport, and across the tarmac to a nippy-looking blue-and-white Squirrel B3+ helicopter. We put on headphones and strapped ourselves into our seats before he eased the craft off the ground, edged it forward a little, then darted directly upwards, curling over Mekele and out, northwards, through a craggy valley under a powder-blue sky. Within minutes, there was barely a road to be seen - and not a single vehicle - just solitary walkers and little groups with pack mules on dusty tracks, miles and miles apart.
The rock-hewn churches of Gheralta intertwine history with legend. Ethiopia, tradition has it, was first settled by a great-grandson of Noah. The imperial dynasty that ruled for 3,000 years and ended with the death of Haile Selassie in 1975 was, most Ethiopians believe, founded by the son of King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba. It is a matter of historical record that Christianity was the official state religion by the middle of the fourth century, and the Ethiopian Orthodox Church has ploughed its own (often isolated) furrow ever since. The churches around Gheralta, and in the surrounding region of Tigrai, mark its path through the course of many centuries. It was time for a closer look.
Our second stop was Abreha we Atsbeha, where an 18th-century frontage has been built over a carved cliff church of far greater antiquity. We stood alongside white-robed pilgrims as Gebre pointed out a fresco showing the cannibal Belai, who was saved from damnation because the single drop of water he had given a leper in the Virgin's name outweighed the 72 corpses he had devoured, after St Mary cast her shadow over the droplet on the Scales of Judgement. Then it was back to the lodge, for cocktails of Campari and tej (local honey wine).
'This is where it really starts,' said Simpson, 45 minutes into an already spectacular flight. We banked around a cliff-face to find ourselves in a gorge of the wide, glassy, green Tekeze River. 'It's Africa's answer to the Grand Canyon,' he said, as we dropped down to 30 metres, almost skimming the water's surface, to spot crocodiles, goliath herons, a pelican. Then up again, sometimes lingering to view a waterfall, sometimes speeding over the tops of craggy hills at upwards of 160km an hour.
At one point, Simpson seemed to be flying directly at a cliff. As we got closer, what had appeared to be solid rock face took on an odd 3-D perspective, then revealed itself as a series of pinnacles, one behind the other. The helicopter slowed. Simpson lowered it towards a blade of rock extending from one of the pinnacles. I shut my eyes. When I opened them again, we had landed - the tail of the chopper jutting out over one cliff, the nose almost touching another. We slid back the doors. The scent of thyme from the bushes around us filled the air. A Rüppell's griffon vulture, reputedly the world's highest flying bird, eyed us as equals as it passed, then rose even higher, to put us in our place. 'This is the coolest breakfast I've ever had,' someone said, as we tucked into coffee, fresh bread rolls, and smoky-flavoured honey from Gheralta.
Back at base, a group of children had gathered near the helicopter. They started to clap in rhythm. A lad of eight or nine began a low-voiced song, with which even the tiniest toddler joined in, while two other boys performed a wriggling eskista shoulder dance as we took off and turned to follow the Tekeze River south, to the town of Lalibela.
We mingled among worshippers in a cluster of churches on the edge of town. Ethiopians retained their sovereignty in the Scramble for Africa. Theirs is not missionary Christianity but a home-grown religion close to its Judaic roots, with ancient traditions. Pilgrims prayed right by the rock face of Biete Medhani Alem (Saviour of the World) Church, as if at Jerusalem's Western Wall. Inside Biete Mariam (St Mary's), Stars of David were carved in the ceiling, and one fresco tapped an even older source, depicting the brown ox of Good doing battle with the black ox of Evil.
Our return flight south towards Addis took us first along a tributary of the Blue Nile. Huge crocodiles slipped into the water as we passed overhead. We landed on a (crocodile-free) bank, and within minutes a group of Wollo people came from the fields to investigate: the women with braided hair and pretty buttons sewn on their dresses, many of the men wearing goatskin capes. Amid hilarity and sign language, one of the men offered to share lunch with me, then ran back to the fields and returned with a spherical covered basket containing injera (pancake bread). Simpson presented a precious jar of Gheralta honey, which he'd been saving for his children, in exchange. Then we pressed on. It was harvest time, the farmers had work to do.
Journeys by Design (+44 1273 623790; www.journeysbydesign.com) offers a 10-night helicopter safari through northern Ethiopia, combining Lalibela, the Simien Mountains and the Danakil Depression, from £19,550 per person, including a private helicopter with pilot, full-board accommodation and ground support.

On Facebook, a friend of mine posted a link to an article in the UK's The Guardian newspaper. The article was written by Neal Lawson and it's entitled "Ban Outdoor Advertising".
I think banning outdoor advertising is naive because it only removes display ads. Our world is still awash in store-front signs and brands. Lawson wouldn't suggest that we take down all store signs or pull the brand badges off of our cars or our clothes. So he's focusing in on just one tiny element of a much larger issue — will this one fix change everything? I doubt it.
In the 1st and 2nd paragraph of his article, Lawson describes some of the public places where outdoor advertising can be seen. Although he doesn't describe why it's in those places, he says it shouldn't be there. But it's not like the advertising has suddenly appeared there against someone's will. Schools and hospitals (and other public institutions) need to defray increasingly higher expenses and they have a choice: Charge users more (per-use, in taxes, or through some other form of income — advertising). So if we take down advertising in these public places, there will be a financial impact on users. Admittedly, not every public advertisement is there to defray expenses. (Roadside billboards, for example, are profit centers for the billboard owners rather than to help lower costs of a public institution).
In the 3rd paragraph of his article, Lawson says that the purpose of advertising is to make us unhappy. I think that's somewhat alarmist. It also feels like he's suggesting that we wouldn't have these social problems of anxiety, insecurity, and obesity if it weren't for advertising. That's not true. We would still have these social problems because we compare ourselves with other people. For example, long before we had billboards, people were doing dangerous things to beautify themselves. And how does advertising help to sow the seeds of mental illness?
In the 4th paragraph of his article, Lawson say: "The advertising industry exists to ensure it becomes culturally and emotionally impossible to refuse." I find that phrase the most offensive and naive statement of his entire article. The advertising industry doesn't exist for that purpose. Industries (in general) exist to earn a profit by filling needs (both good and bad, admittedly), and the advertising industry exists to connect those other industries with potential buyers.
In the 5th paragraph of his article, Lawson says that advertising would clear our minds "for ideas, plans, love or just to daydream." I'm not sure what he thinks is happening in our minds. In spite of our minds being all cluttered up from public advertising through the ages, we still circumnavigated the globe, cured many diseases, and went to the moon. (Maybe he thinks we could have been to Mars if it wasn't for that pesky billboard that I drive past on my way to the grocery store).
Throughout his article, Lawson tries to separate the motivations of advertising from its value (I hope I worded that in a way that makes sense). What I mean is: He seems to be suggesting that advertising is there because advertisers are profit-driven and looking for more ways to tear us away from our money; instead, he should be considering that advertising is there because it works. People are going to buy things and advertisers are filling a need.
In the 6th paragraph of his article, after vilifying advertisers in general, Lawson tries to show us how great one city is doing it by quoting what is essentially a branded advertisement: "Bristol: the city that said no to advertising". Somewhat ironic, in my opinion. But maybe Lawson is okay with it as long as that slogan is never ever displayed in public.
In the 7th paragraph of his article, Lawson seems to separate citizenship and consumerism. But those shouldn't be separate. (1) Citizenship is a type of consumerism — we buy our citizenship with our taxes and votes; (2) Consumerism is a type of citizenship — we invest in who we want to be; (3) Advertising isn't inherently uncultural — yes, there are disruptive and even offensive ads but advertising in general is part of our social fabric. Lawson seems to suggest that our citizenship would be better when outdoor advertising vanishes. However, I think that our effectiveness as consumers doesn't come from NOT seeing ads, but rather from choosing to buy or not to buy what we see. We vote with our wallets. Those ads would disappear if they didn't work.
So, what do you think? Will our lives be better if we tear down the advertising in public spaces?

Frequently Asked Questions From West Des Moines Pet Owners
If you can't afford the vet, you risk not being able to provide critical medical care and potentially even forfeiture or euthanasia. Caring for a dog or cat is a serious responsibility. To protect yourself against the unexpected, please consider pet health insurance in Iowa. There's also veterinary charitable grant programs you might be eligible for.
Can you just walk into a vet in West Des Moines?
It really depends on whether or not they're already booked up for the day, and if the reason you're "walking in" is an emergency. There are some clinics in West Des Moines that specifically take walk-ins, but in general you should always call ahead. If they can't take you, they might direct you to an animal ER.

It Takes More Than a Pretty Face to Be a Champion – Female Boxers
By Bryanna Fissori
Mendez Boxing Gym in New York is known as one of the top boxing gyms in the country, producing countless champions at both the amateur and professional levels. On May 17th, two female boxers training out of Mendez found success in their respective rings.
One of these strong women never intended to compete, comfortable to train for fitness. The other was an experienced competitor who needed an assertive push to make it to the next level. Both female boxers were trained under the watchful eye of Coach Jose Guzman.
Rebecca Goldberg Transitions from Fitness to Fighter
Rebecca Goldberg is a physician's assistant who started taking boxing classes in order to lose weight and stay in shape. Not only did she enjoy boxing, but it turns out that she was pretty good at it. She started training about a year and a half ago, with absolutely no intention of competing.
"I kinda tricked her into sparring one day and she did good," said Guzman. "I told her she should spar more. Then this charity (Fighers4Life) came looking for fighters for their event. I asked her, but she didn't want to do it."
Like most fitness boxers, Goldberg was hesitant to get hit or go through the grueling camps she had seen others do in preparation to compete, though she is no stranger to hard work.
"I asked her if she ever got tired or just training and working so hard with no goal. She finally gave in," said Guzman. "She's a very sweet girl and there is not a bad bone in her body. It was hard for her to hit somebody and to develop the instinct to do that. It's hard. You get beat up every day and it can be emotional."
There is nothing like your first fight camp. It is grueling both mentally and physically. Cutting weight, time management and workout recovery coupled with the mental stress of knowing that someone wants to punch your face in. These are just a few of things to take into consideration. Rebecca also has a full-time job, which typically doesn't make camp less stressful.
"Then I found out that I wasn't going to be at her fight because I had to travel to Nebraska with the national team," said Guzman.
Goldberg had committed to the fight and was going to see it through despite not having her coach in the corner.
"I had no idea what to expect," said Goldberg. "It is intimidating to perform in front of friends and family while getting punched in the face. When I started training it was just for fitness. Competing is totally different."
Fighters4Life is a boxing promotion that hosts USA Boxing sanctioned amateur bouts for charitable causes.
"Rebecca competed against one of Heather Hardy's girls and beat the girl up. A year ago, she didn't want anything to do with stepping into the ring!"
Jennifer Lopez Commits to Becoming a Champion
"Jennifer is 7-1 as an amateur MMA fighter and she would do boxing on the side," said Guzman. "She was talented but was just getting by without putting in the hard work. I met her about a year and a half ago. She moves well and has power in both hands. I thought I could polish her up to be a good fighter. It was her first boxing camp with a real trainer and she thought she knew everything. I've had close to 200 amateur fights and 21 pro. I told her to trust me and I would guide her and make her a champion."
Lopez is not a professional in either sport. She bartends to make ends meet, but that lifestyle can often make it difficult to stay disciplined.
"A few months back I didn't think I was going to compete in the New York Golden Gloves because I felt like I wasn't ready and had a short amount of time to prepare and get in fight shape. I spoke to my trainer (Jose Guzman) and he said if I really wanted to compete I will have to give it my all and that's exactly what I did."
In a sport where lack of focus could have big consequences, Guzman wanted to make sure Lopez was serious about the competition.
"We were training her for Golden Gloves and she was getting lazy and staying out late. I told her that if she didn't get it together I was going to pull her out. She started training hard. She cut 10 pounds in a week. In her first bout, she fought the defending champ from last year. I was hoping we wouldn't draw her early. Jennifer had sparred her before and got a little beat up, but time Jennifer out-boxed her. She stuck to the plan of hitting and not getting hit. Everybody was surprised at how well she did."
Out of 13 female boxers in her division at the Golden Gloves National Competition, Lopez took home second place.
"I'm proud of how much I've accomplished. Even though I've boxed for some time now, this was my first boxing tournament on a national level," said Lopez. "Fighting back to back and making weight almost every day for a week was challenging but I gained new confidence and built lifelong new friendships with other fighters. I am beyond grateful for team metro and everyone who invested their time to help me, without them it wouldn't have been possible."
Both female competitors have a desire to continue fighting. Look for Jennifer Lopez to also continue her career in MMA with a new-found focus on striking. Now that she has a taste for boxing competition, Rebecca Goldberg hopes to be back in the ring and continue to grow as an athlete.
If you happen to be in New York, stop by Mendez Boxing to meet Coach Jose Guzman and watch champions being created one training session at a time.

Ford Mustang: Pick Your Pony
September 30, 2015 • by Tariq Kamal
2015 Ford Mustang.
With more than 9 million units sold in 50 years of continuous production, the Ford Mustang has little to prove to fleet buyers, pony car enthusiasts or anyone else.
But the all-new, sixth-generation 2015 model is dressed to impress with new exterior and interior styling, new front and rear suspensions, bigger, more powerful brakes and a four-cylinder engine option.
Specs for the 2015 Ford Mustang.
The four-banger slots between the base model's 3.7-liter V-6, which delivers 300 horsepower (hp) and 320 pound-feet (lb.-ft.) of torque, and the Mustang GT's 5.0-liter V-8, which is good for 435 hp and 400 lb.-ft. The new engine uses every available means, including a turbocharger, direct injection and variable cam timing, to eke 310 horsies out of a 2.3-liter stable.
Paired with a six-speed manual transmission (all three engines can also be mated to a six-speed automatic), the EcoBoost I-4 earns a combined fuel economy rating of 26 miles per gallon (mpg). That's an impressive mark for a segment that also includes the Mustang's longtime rival, the Chevrolet Camaro, as well as the Dodge Challenger and Hyundai Genesis Coupe. It should be noted that the Challenger achieves a combined rating of 23 mpg with a bigger, badder V-6.
All three engines have won the hearts of critics, who have heaped praise on the new 'Stang's starts, stops and handling. The front and rear suspensions are now fully independent and enhanced by a finely tuned traction control system and an adjustable electric power steering system, which offers Standard, Sport and Comfort modes.
The exterior features a slightly wider and lower stance, a more rakish tilt to the front and rear windshields and extended side windows designed to improve blind-spot visibility. The Mustang's signature shark-bite grille, long, sculpted hood and three-bar taillights return. Opting for the convertible adds $5,500 to the sticker for a V-6 or V-8.
A dual-cowl dashboard and aviation-inspired gauges, dials and switches dominate the cockpit. The backseat is still very small, but the new trunk is big enough to hold two golf bags.
The 2015 Ford Mustang is in showrooms now. MSRPs start at $23,800 for the base 3.7-liter and top out at $46,170 for the 5.0-liter GT.

8 Key Questions Fleets Should Ask Potential Suppliers
All fleet suppliers have some formal customer service and client relations staff and process, the former is usually for day-to-day services via telephone and email and the latter is more strategic and involves face-to-face visits.
Fleets Concerned About Rising Operating Costs
Higher fuel prices and maintenance costs, along with upward pressure on maintenance labor rates are a few of the factors increasing fleet operating costs.
Upward Pricing Pressuring Fixed and Operating Costs
Fleets are being impacted by a variety of inflationary pressures ranging from higher acquisition prices due to the proliferation of onboard safety equipment, to increased material costs pushing up pricing on parts, upfits, and replacement tires.

Make kids' helmets compulsory, say doctors
"Helmets reduce head injury by 85 percent"
The Association of Paediatric Emergency Medicine has just voted to officially call for a change in British law to make it compulsory for cyclists under 16 years of age to wear a helmet.
The Association quotes studies suggesting that helmets reduce the chance of head injury by 85 percent, brain injury by 88 percent and severe brain injury by 75 percent.
The group's Dr Ian Maconochie said: "The evidence is significant in terms of reducing direct brain injury at low impact velocities. The debate we had was extensive but the medical fraternity voted thee to one in favour of having mandatory cycle helmet wearing.
"It's estimated there are 90,000 accidents on the road in the UK involving bicycles and 100,000 off the road, 53 percent of which involve children. In terms of traumatic brain injury, about 52,000 children have suffered significant brain injury which requires additional support from the state so there are elements of how it affects society and individuals."
Dr Maconochie did not say over what period these injury figures were collected or where they came from. The most recent annual figures available from the Department for Transport (2007) show 3,633 child cycling injuries in total, of which 509 were classed as seriously injured and 13 were deaths. The same figures for child pedestrians were 9,527, 1,842 and 57.
UK cyclists' organisation CTC have issued a full rebuttal at www.cyclehelmets.org. The main thrusts of their counter argument are that helmet wearing will reduce cycling (Australia is quoted as an example) and increase child obesity – a greater danger than head injury from bike falls.
CTC also maintain that the consequent reduction in cyclist numbers on the road will make the roads more dangerous for those choosing to pedal. Their Safety in Numbers campaign stresses how they believe more cyclists are the key to making the roads safer for all cyclists.
Chris Peck, spokesman for the CTC, said: "We believe children should not have to wear helmets. Our position is that parents should have a choice. We also want parents to be aware of the element of risk compensation: where children and adults choose to wear a safety aid they will take more risks.
"Look at countries in Europe where cycling is huge – in Holland 27 percent of trips are made by bike and you would not see a helmet on cyclists, not even kids. And in Copenhagen 55 percent of people cycle to work and you see very few helmets there. In fact there are a lot of advocates in Holland and Denmark who strongly object to them. A recent helmet law was defeated in the Danish parliament.
"Such a law would be unenforceable [in Britain]. The law would have to lay responsibility for children wearing helmets on their parents or guardians. This would mean that those individuals would need to accompany their children at all times, or bear responsibility for their child's decision to remove their helmet when away from the parent. Neither of these solutions is practical."

Q: Access VBA: Passing Form/Subform name to a Function? I am attempting to pass a form/subform name to a function without success.  The function steps thru each .Control on the subform and performs a simple set of look-ups & actions.  My code works as expected with the Form/Subform name hard coded; I am looking for a more generic approach.
Getting a type mismatch error on the function call, with and without quotes.
Example:
'Function Call
  call AuditChanges("forms![someForm]![someSubForm]")

'Audit Function
Sub AuditChanges(thisForm as form)
    Dim ctl As Control
    Dim strTest as string

    For each ctl in thisForm.controls
        strTest = ctl.Value
        'do some stuff
    Next ctl

end sub

Any suggestions for proper syntax to pass the form/subform info?
Thanks!

A: Your sub call is all kinds of weird:
The likely cause of your error is the quotes. You're currently passing a string to your function containing "forms![someForm]![someSubForm]"
Furthermore, you shouldn't use parentheses when you're not receiving a return value (so never when calling a sub).
Also, the Call keyword has been deprecated a long time ago.
And you likely want to pass the form object, and not the subform control object
Try calling your sub like this:
AuditChanges forms![someForm]![someSubForm].Form
