Watch: Olivia Colman and Micheal Ward reveal favourite cinema experiences
Empire of Light star Micheal Ward has revealed that seeing 2008's dance franchise sequel Step Up 2: The Streets helped him to fall in love with the movies.
The 25-year-old star told Yahoo UK that being able to share in the film's joy with his friends after the credits rolled was hugely important to him.
"We used to go [to the cinema] on non-school uniform day, me and my friends and stuff," said Ward.

He added: "We came out dancing and everyone was picking a character, someone would be popping and locking and someone would be all over the floor.
"We were literally coming out of the cinema doing this and even on the bus on the way home.

"When something affects you like that, it was special to you. It really was special to us. I used to love that film so much.
"I went to the cinema to watch that with my friends. It felt like something we could actually do together. It was special."

Empire of Light follows Ward as a new employee at a seafront cinema in Margate in the 1980s, facing the threat of racist violence as well as forming a romance with duty manager Hilary (Olivia Colman).
Colman's choice of a transcendent cinema experience was rather different to Ward's, with the Oscar-winner citing Lars von Trier 1996 drama Breaking the Waves as a formative movie.

"I watched it when I was a drama student. I never want to watch it again. It was so upsetting," she said.
Colman added: "Six of us went to watch it — five of us were crushed by it and one didn't really get it. I couldn't cope with their reaction to it.

"But it was amazing how we all watched the same film, and yet there's those conversations that happen afterwards when one person doesn't feel the same.
"I remember where I was and even the seat I was in in the cinema in Bristol. That was an incredible moment. I wanted to do work like that, or that affects people like that."

Tanya Moodie appears in Empire of Light as nurse Delia — mother of Ward's daughter — and said she has had a huge variety of emotional experiences at the cinema.
She said: "I see a lot of things and I'm in pieces. For example, Monsters Inc. I was in pieces. I was in bits and had to go to the loo, sobbing. I also had that from Thelma and Louise, sobbed.
"I had that with The Father recently with Olivia. That's one of the first things I said to her [when they met for Empire of Light]. I cried so hard my family had to leave me in the cinema."

Empire of Light director Sam Mendes cited Steven Spielberg's sci-fi classic Close Encounters of the Third Kind as one of the movies which triggered his affection for the multiplex.
"My dad took me to see it in Leicester Square. I remember the sheer scale of it," he said.

Mendes added: "As the movie starts, it goes to black and there's a sound that gets louder and louder and the floor started moving and rumbling. You could just feel the fact that no one in the audience was breathing.
"That was pretty exciting. I often think about that when I think about why does one want movies still to exist on a big scale, and why does one still have a romantic notion about watching it with other people?

"There's nothing quite like it. It's a different experience to watching at home. It's not better or worse. It's just completely different and it's something we don't want to lose."

Brailsford: Ineos couldn't guarantee Chris Froome sole team leadership
By Barry Ryan
Four-time Tour de France winner set to join Israel Start-Up Nation in 2021

Dave Brailsford has said that Chris Froome's departure from Team Ineos at the end of this season has come about because the team was unable to guarantee him "sole team leadership" at this point in his career.
Ineos confirmed on Thursday morning that Froome will leave when his contract expires at the end of this season. The four-time Tour de France winner will join Israel Start-Up Nation in 2021, though he reiterated his intention to ride the 2020 Tour with Ineos, whose line-up will include defending champion Egan Bernal and 2018 winner Geraint Thomas.
"Chris's current contract comes to an end in December and we have taken the decision now not to renew it. We are making this announcement earlier than would usually be the case to put an end to recent speculation and allow the team to focus on the season ahead," Brailsford said in a statement released by Team Ineos.

Chris Froome in discussions over a mid-season transfer
Cyclingnews revealed in May that Froome had discussed a mid-season transfer earlier this year, with Bahrain McLaren and Israel Start-Up Nation the proposed destinations. He will instead complete the season as an Ineos rider before linking up with Israel Start-Up Nation in 2021.
"Given his achievements in the sport, Chris is understandably keen to have sole team leadership in the next chapter of his career – which is not something we are able to guarantee him at this point. A move away from Team Ineos can give him that certainty," Brailsford said.
"At the same time, it will also give other members of our team the leadership opportunities they too have earned and are rightly seeking."
Speaking to Eurosport in May, Bernal said that the road would decide the Ineos hierarchy at the Tour, rescheduled for August 29-September 20, but he acknowledged that he would not "throw away another opportunity to win another Tour de France" by sacrificing himself in the service of Froome or Thomas from the outset. Froome missed Bernal's 2019 Tour victory after sustaining serious injury in a crash at the Critérium du Dauphiné. He returned to action at the UAE Tour in February.
Together with Thomas and Ian Stannard, Froome is one of three riders who have raced for Ineos (formerly Team Sky) every season since the squad's inception in 2010. Froome made a dramatic emergence as a Grand Tour rider when he placed second to Juan José Cobo at the 2011 Vuelta a España, and he was awarded the overall victory last year after Cobo was belatedly sanctioned for doping offences.
Froome went on to place second behind Bradley Wiggins at the 2012 Tour before returning to win the race overall the following year. He won the Tour again in 2015, 2016 and 2017, and later added the 2017 Vuelta and 2018 Giro d'Italia to his palmarès.
He placed third overall behind Thomas at the 2018 Tour, which began just days after the UCI dropped anti-doping proceedings against Froome, who had returned elevated levels of salbutamol in a control on the 2017 Vuelta.
"Chris has been with us from the start," Brailsford said. "He is a great champion and we have shared many memorable moments over the years, but I do believe this is the right decision for the team and for Chris."

McDonald's begins selling 850 Russian restaurants
McDonald's was the first American fast food restaurant to open in the Soviet Union. It's the largest Western corporation to leave Russia over the Ukraine invasion.
Author: DAVID KOENIG (AP Business Writer)
Published: 5:32 AM CDT May 16, 2022
McDonald's said Monday that it has started the process of selling its Russian business, which includes 850 restaurants that employ 62,000 people, making it the latest major Western corporation to exit Russia since it invaded Ukraine in February.
The fast food giant pointed to the humanitarian crisis caused by the war, saying holding on to its business in Russia "is no longer tenable, nor is it consistent with McDonald's values."
The Chicago-based company announced in early March that it was temporarily closing its stores in Russia but would continue to pay employees. On Monday, it said it would seek to have a Russian buyer hire those workers and pay them until the sale closes. It did not identify a prospective buyer.
CEO Chris Kempczinski said the "dedication and loyalty to McDonald's" of employees and hundreds of Russian suppliers made it a difficult decision to leave.
"However, we have a commitment to our global community and must remain steadfast in our values," Kempczinski said in a statement, "and our commitment to our values means that we can no longer keep the arches shining there."
As it tries to sell its restaurants, McDonald's said it plans to start removing golden arches and other symbols and signs with the company's name. It said it will keep its trademarks in Russia.
The first McDonald's in Russia opened in the middle of Moscow more than three decades ago, shortly after the fall of the Berlin Wall. It was a powerful symbol of the easing of Cold War tensions between the United States and Soviet Union.
McDonald's was the first American fast food restaurant to open in the Soviet Union, which would collapse in 1991. McDonald's decision to leave comes as other American food and beverage giants including Coca-Cola, Pepsi and Starbucks have paused or closed operations in Russia in the face of Western sanctions.
Corporations from British energy giants Shell and BP to French carmaker Renault have pulled out of Russia, taking a hit to their bottom lines as they seek to sell their holdings there. Other companies have stayed at least partially, with some facing blowback.
McDonald's said it expects to record a charge against earnings of between $1.2 billion and $1.4 billion over leaving Russia.
Its restaurants in Ukraine are closed, but the company said it is continuing to pay full salaries for its employees there.

McDonald's has more than 39,000 locations across more than 100 countries. Most are owned by franchisees — only about 5% are owned and operated by the company.
McDonald's said exiting Russia will not change its forecast of adding a net 1,300 restaurants this year, which will contribute about 1.5% to companywide sales growth.
Last month, McDonald's reported that it earned $1.1 billion in the first quarter, down from more than $1.5 billion a year earlier. Revenue was nearly $5.7 billion.

FRANCE: The proposed 'law on separatism(s)' should not target religion
by CAPLC2021 | Nov 23, 2020 | news
By Willy Fautré, Human Rights Without Frontiers
The resurgence in attacks by radical Islamists in France, home to Europe's largest Muslim population, has rekindled fierce debates about Islam, secularism, and discrimination. The deplorable assassinations in October 2020 of Samuel Paty, a teacher, and three Catholics in the Basilica of Nice have accelerated the political will of the authorities to adopt a law meant to tackle some of the root causes of Islamist terrorism.
These two events followed the publication of a public opinion survey carried out in August 2020 by the well-known institute Ipsos. One key finding of this survey was that 57% of young Muslims in France who had been educated in the schools of the Republic, were placing the shariah above the Law of the Republic. As is the norm in France, when there is an intractable problem, a new law is seen as the solution.
Law on separatisms or law on separatism?
The proposed law announced by the President of the Republic and the Minister of the Interior is often titled 'law on separatisms', in the plural, while other times it is in the singular form. This is not a mistake, an inaccuracy or a hesitation about spelling or grammar. It reflects the current uncertainty of whether to take the risk of identifying the problem as a religious one and to exclusively target one religion: Islam.
According to the French authorities, a specific group of Muslims are said to separate themselves from the historical majority of society and from its values in a dangerous manner, for example by rejecting scientific truths or by contesting the Holocaust. To avoid the accusation of Islamophobia and concerns about religious discrimination if they were to use the term 'separatism' in the singular, the French government plans to include other religious groups, especially ones labelled 'sectes' to instrumentalize them as an alibi of its good faith while ignoring some very closed Jewish communities. The inherent flaw with this approach is that the security threat is considered religious in nature, which it is not.
The enemy is not a religion, it is a political ideology
The source of the problem is a political ideology: radical Islamism. Its objective is to impose a theocratic governance in Muslim minds whether they are in Muslim majority countries or not. This is accomplished by instilling its ideology in Muslim families, parents, and children, even before school education.
The enemy to combat is not a religion or some religions and their disciples, but a political project. If the French authorities singled out an entire religious community as a threat, they would make the work of radical Islamism all the easier.
Therefore, the proposed law should not target Islam as a religion, but should instead tackle political Islamism, in particular Salafism and its organisations such as the Muslim Brotherhood and its satellite associations.
Consequently, the fight against radical Islamism should only be waged where it is active and solely against individuals who preach or publicly support it, including on social media.
A false diagnostic leads to a false solution
The proposed law plans to implement Chapter V (articles 25-36) of the 9 December 1905 Law On the Separation Between Churches and State which is titled Police des cultes and intended 'to protect places of worship from the spreading of ideas and statements as well as from acts hostile to the laws of the Republic'.
In line with this law, some mosques have been closed for a few months. However, closing 'suspicious' mosques is not a solution and is counter-productive. Such a restrictive measure angers those directly affected and other Muslims nationwide and is a violation of the international standards on freedom of religion or belief. It's not 'mosques' that disseminate extremist ideas, but rather the individuals in leadership roles in some mosques who instrumentalise religious teachings for political purposes. Certain imams and preachers, who have been identified by the authorities for a very long time, behave as political militants instead of providing faith-building to their communities. The proposed law must combat them, not the religious community they belong to.
The announced news of the involvement of the police des cultes sets the fight against radical Islamism at the religious level when it should be carried out at the ideological and political one instead. Other religious or spiritual communities and other categories of believers have nothing to do with this political militant activism. The problem to be solved is political, not religious.
Some collateral damage of this false solution
The proposed law also includes obligatory school education being introduced earlier, at the age of three, to facilitate children's socialisation and integration into French society. Although it is laudable, prohibiting home education as a strategy against Islamism does not make sense. To date there has not been a case where a child who was educated at home then became an Islamist or a terrorist.
In these difficult times, it is senseless to upset families of believers across all faiths, including Catholics, by measures intended to fulfil objectives that are political and not religious. In fact, many Muslim families in France have suffered from the experience of one of their children running away from home to fight in Syria. Those parents are not responsible for the decision of their minor or young adult children. Most of the time, they never taught them this political Islamism, but they are the victims of it.
The French government's plan is to present the proposed law to the Council of Ministers on the symbolic date of 9 December 2020, perhaps even earlier, and then to update it by then. The timing of this legislative process will coincide with the anniversary of the 9 December 1905 Law. Additionally, it would provide a swift response to the horrific beheading of Samuel Paty who gave a lesson about civic education, specifically on freedom of expression, that included a respectful debate about caricatures of the Prophet Mohammed. It would also address the attack in Nice that resulted in three Catholics murdered.
As of today, no draft of the proposed law has been made public but associating it with the existing religious legislation would be a regrettable mistake. The objective is to fight against a terrorist political ideology that is segregationist and discriminatory, that fractures and fragments society with the intent of inciting violent community-based confrontations to create a fertile ground for its expansion.

At the very most, 7 weeks and 4 days until baby girl arrives, but who is counting?!
I still have to get the nursery finished, or started.
Oh yeah, and we still have no name…keep the suggestions coming, please.
A lot has happened since my last update, at 26 weeks. We are having fun and enjoying our last few months as a family of three. We also took family/maternity pictures last week, which I can't wait to get back!
Maternity clothes? A good mix…got some good Fall pieces from Taylor and a few other girlfriends so I can avoid buying maternity clothes.
Sleep: Not great, getting up at least once a night. Also Jaxon has decided he wakes up by 6:30am every morning now despite how late he stays up.
Best moments: Jaxon's third birthday party!! Taking Jaxon down the IU football game and a fun date night with Ryan last weekend.
Miss Anything? I went shopping the other day, and I miss being able to fit into cute clothes, especially ones that are coming out right now for Fall. Red wine!
Workouts: They have slowed down. I'm still making myself show up at least 3 times a week, but I don't have much lung capacity, and usually feel like I need a nap after working out. Taking Zoey on long walks too.

ISS/ATV communication system flight on Soyuz
Press Release From: EADS SPACE
Posted: Monday, February 28, 2005
Baikonur, 28 February 2005 - An essential communications system to enable successful docking of Europe's Automated Transfer Vehicle (ATV) and the International Space Station (ISS) will today be launched on board the 'Progress' cargo delivery vehicle by Soyuz flight 352. The PCE (Proximity Communication Equipment) was developed and integrated in Toulouse by EADS Astrium, as part of the European Space Agency's ATV programme, for which EADS SPACE Transportation is prime contractor.
The PCE will enable proximity communications for the last 30km of flight of the future European ATV cargo vehicle on its approach to the ISS. This system will be the first component element of the ATV system to be placed in orbit. Tests are scheduled for early April 2005, and the success of these tests will pave the way for the "Jules Verne" ATV launch.
The PCE is an integrated sub-assembly providing two, fully redundant S-band communication chains. It comprises two spread spectrum transponders and two CCSDS protocol management modules plus associated microwave equipment. Installed in the Zvezda module on the ISS, the PCE system will be operated during the "proximity" phase corresponding to the last 30km of the ATV's flight, and the delicate docking operation with the ISS. This automatic in-orbit rendezvous will be a European first.
The command and control data transmitted by the PCE as part of its communications mission, will include GPS positioning data required for relative navigation of the ATV towards the ISS. At a distance of 500m from the station up to actual docking, ATV navigation will be controlled by laser instruments, initially a telegoniometer, followed by a videometer for the final phases. Electrical tests on the PCE, which were performed by a combined ESA, Industry and Russian team, were completed successfully at the Russian base of Baikonur in Kazakhstan, in early February 2005. The complete PCE assembly will be checked out on the space station in early April 2005.
The ATV is the most challenging and complex space vehicle ever to be developed and built in Europe. Currently, the prototype ATV Jules Verne is at the ESTEC facility in Norwijk, Holland, undergoing further integration and testing under the responsibility of EADS SPACE Transportation. The compatability testing programme includes electromagnetic environment, accoustic, thermal, and vacuum tests as well as mechanical testing. At the beginning of 2005, the cargo carrier was inspected by astronauts. The ATV Jules Verne is due to be shipped to Kourou in French Guiana in November this year where it will undergo final testing (including fuelling) ahead of integration with the Ariane 5 rocket prior to launch.
EADS SPACE is a wholly-owned subsidiary of EADS, which is dedicated to providing civil and military space systems. Its activities are managed by three main companies: EADS SPACE Transportation for launcher systems and orbital infrastructure, EADS Astrium for satellites and ground stations and EADS SPACE Services for satellite-based services. In 2003, EADS SPACE had a turnover of more than �2.4 billion and about 12,000 employees in France, Germany, the United Kingdom and Spain.
EADS is a global leader in aerospace, defence and related services. In 2003, EADS generated revenues of �30.1 billion and employed a workforce of more than 100,000.

Mediating Neighbor Disputes - San Francisco Chronicle, January 29, 1997 | Got Peace?
By Barri Kaplan Bonapart, Esq.
You've just moved into what you thought was your dream house, only to discover you live next door to the neighbor from hell.
You know the one: He welcomes you to the neighborhood by insisting you chop down your beautiful trees that are blocking his view. At the same time, he won't trim his pine tree, which is littering your property with thousands of needles.
He refuses to share the cost of repairing an old boundary line fence but builds a new one while you are away on vacation --one that you are positive is two feet over the property line.
And to top it all, his rottweiler roams freely despite the leash law, attacking anything that moves and leaving "mementos" on your front porch.
Neighbor disputes are an urban plague. Typically, they fester until one day a seemingly innocuous act by one neighbor turns into an argument of mammoth proportions.
Many of us choose to live with the aggravation. Others, in anger and frustration, turn to the legal system for solutions --only to find that courts are ill-equipped to resolve such disputes.
What can you do if you are having problems with your neighbor? Short of moving, one possible solution is mediation. Often, even the most intractable neighbors will agree to this process --especially if litigation is the alternative.
Mediation is a process in which the parties select a neutral person (the mediator) to assist them in resolving disputes by helping identify issues, areas of agreement and creative solutions. Unlike other forms of dispute resolution, control of the proceedings and the outcome remains completely in the parties' hands.
Mediation should not be confused with arbitration, where a chosen person makes a decision regarding the outcome of a dispute after hearing arguments and evidence.
Nor should mediation be compared to a settlement conference, where a judge uses "shuttle diplomacy" to achieve a compromise that may not satisfy either party.
Typically, mediators charge from $150 to $300 per hour. Depending on the complexity of the dispute, mediation can last from a few hours to several days. Unless the parties agree otherwise, these fees are generally split equally among the parties.
While mediators' styles may differ, mediation has key elements that set it apart from other approaches to dispute resolution.
Mediation is a voluntary process.
Parties to the dispute participate in mediation by mutual consent. They are free to leave at any time if they do not like the way it is proceeding.
However, some California courts have recently instituted "mandatory mediation," a controversial development in the legal community because a crucial premise behind mediation is that it works only when the parties want to resolve their differences.
Even if you have been ordered into mediation, you may not be forced into a resolution with which you disagree. In other words, even in mandatory mediation, there are no mandatory resolutions.
The solution to a mediated dispute comes from the parties, in stark contrast to litigation, where the outcome is imposed upon parties by a judge, jury, or arbitrator.
In mediation, participants also have the power to shape the process by selecting the mediator, and determining the length of the sessions, who will participate and whether attorneys will represent the parties.
Parties can craft creative solutions.
Legal remedies ordered by a court are usually limited to monetary awards or blocking/ordering actions based on interpretation of the law. In mediation, parties can design agreements that address their feelings, needs, and interests, regardless of legal rights or entitlements.
The quality, form and nature of the solution derived through mediation are limited only by the imagination of participants.
For example, if your neighbor's tree is blocking your view, you may not have the legal right to demand the tree be cut down. Your neighbors might be interested in mediation, however, if they believe they may benefit from an agreement.
You might propose, for example, that you perform some act that your neighbor desires (such as paying for the repairs to your commonly owned fence) in exchange for your neighbor agreeing to trim the tree. You might further agree that the tree will be trimmed in such a way as to open up your view while maintaining your neighbor's need for privacy.
Mediation is collaborative instead of adversarial.
Rather than focusing on accusations and blame, parties to a mediation are encouraged to work toward a shared goal --crafting a mutually satisfactory resolution.
One important benefit of working with --rather than against-- each other is that solutions are usually reached far more quickly and less expensively than through adversarial proceedings.
When people are in conflict, they are often unable to hear each other's needs and concerns.
Mediation can provide a safe place where people can speak to each other, express their feelings and hear what the other is saying. This free flow of communication can allow parties to create solutions that meet each other's needs.
The truth is, mediation is a lot like couples' therapy. Many techniques used by experienced mediators are borrowed from therapists. Time-honored skills such as empathic listening allow mediators to steer participants toward a resolution.
Mediation is well suited to neighbor disputes for a number of reasons: First, unless someone moves, neighbors have to live with each other for a long time. Unlike a divorce --where spouses split up-- problem neighbors are with you morning, noon and night.
Litigation can make matters far worse; since it's very hard to maintain, much less repair, a relationship after you sue.
Next, since most neighbor disputes do not involve claims for large monetary damages, a lawsuit can be prohibitively expensive with no guarantee that the dispute will be resolved.
Finally, most neighbor disputes involve needs or interests for which the law does not provide adequate redress. For example, most courts could not do much about a neighbor's tree shedding leaves on your lawn or his kitchen light shining in your bedroom window.
Because mediation is a cooperative process in which people work together to solve their problems, it can actually help repair a bad relationship.
Underlying many neighbor disputes are feelings unrelated to the dispute. For example, when one Oakland hills homeowner wanted her neighbor to cut her trees to a level that would restore her panoramic view, the tree owner, an elderly woman, felt that her neighbor was trying to violate her rights by telling her what to do with her property. The dispute lasted 12 years.
Mediation offered the tree owner a forum to express her need to be respected and autonomous. The upslope neighbor heard the elderly woman's concerns and acknowledged them. With the help of arborists and attorneys, they fashioned an agreement that addressed each of their needs on a tree-by-tree basis, removing some, and trimming others to precise specifications.
A trial does not provide the opportunity to discuss feelings underlying a dispute and may actually create more hurt feelings. Even if you win your lawsuit, bad feelings can intensify so that your castle becomes a fortress.
Many people promote themselves as mediators. Some are qualified; others are not.
When selecting a mediator, look for someone who is trained in mediation techniques. For recommendations, ask arborists (for tree disputes), lawyers, local bar associations and local government agencies such as public works and park and recreation departments.
Many former judges have become private mediators. But an excellent judge may not be the best mediator. With years of experience settling cases, judges are more familiar with the settlement conference style, in which parties compromise instead of working collaboratively toward a win-win resolution. This approach may not be appropriate for most neighbor disputes.
Some areas have community organizations that provide free or low-cost mediation services. Although you can save money by using one of these boards, there are drawbacks: Your mediator is selected for you and may not have qualifications or experience in your particular problem.
To find a community mediation organization in your area, call your local bar association or public works or park and recreation department.
It's a good idea to ask prospective mediators what style of mediation they use, what training they have, how they view their role and whether they have expertise in your type of dispute. Ask for references, and check them out.
Most mediations take place in conference rooms supplied by the mediator. Some disputes, however, lend themselves to on-site mediations. For example, in the dispute concerning the Oakland homeowner's view blocked by her neighbor's trees, it was invaluable having the mediator, the parties, the lawyers and tree experts meet at the property. There they could work collaboratively to craft a solution that took into account each tree and its function.
If you and your neighbor are still on speaking terms, suggest mediation and explain its benefits.
If your relationship has deteriorated to the point that you cannot approach a neighbor personally, send a letter proposing mediation as a way of resolving the dispute. Enclose articles or literature from a mediator that explains the process.
Consider enlisting a mediator to contact the other side. Many mediators are happy to try to facilitate initial discussions. In some instances, you may want to have an attorney contact the neighbor to propose mediation. Often, people will not take matters seriously until they are confronted with legal letterhead sent via certified mail.
As a last resort, you may want to file a lawsuit. Often, parties (such as the neighbor from hell) will come to the mediation table only when confronted with the prospect and expense of protracted litigation.
Even if you sue or are sued, it is never too late to pursue mediation. Just make sure you are represented by an attorney experienced in and comfortable with the mediation process.

Gabriella met her husband Russell when she was 16 years old. Gabriella and Russell moved to Tabulam and Templer Homes for the Aged, initially as permanent residents. However, when an Independent Living Unit became available, Gabriella moved into the unit, while her husband remained in residential care. Gabriella could not be happier with the current arrangements and ease of access to visit Russell at any time. Her home is bright and warm, and she is glad to have her cat living with her now and Russell next door. They enjoy every meal together and he has the care he needs to live a happy and comfortable life.
When Elisabeth first moved to Tabulam and Templer Homes for the Aged, it didn't take her long to find her niche. Initially she was unsure about her new surrounds and struggled to make connections with the people around her. Having played the piano all her life, Elisabeth soon rekindled her passion and she loves playing for her fellow residents and listening as they sing along.
Music has enabled her to build bridges across language and cultural barriers, to connect with others and just enjoy the moment. It's been a great gift to her, and has helped her to settle into her new home.
Alison cares full-time for her mother-in-law, Martha, who has late stage dementia. After Martha was hospitalised last year, she knew extra help was needed. Alison's priority was to keep Martha at home but, with her complex needs, it was becoming difficult. When she spoke to TTHA, the care manager immediately understood her situation and met her at home to discuss a range of options. Today, Alison continues to provide personal care while receiving advice, clinical services and specialised equipment via TTHA. And she knows her care manager is always available when she needs support.

How an informal opt-in community of data viz enthusiasts got their work in front of heads of state
Florian Ramseger
Product Specialist - Tableau Public
Many exciting things happened in the Tableau Public community this year—one of 2017's best highlights is that the community's work was showcased at a couple of big international conferences for the first time ever.
In July, Tableau Public had the opportunity to share a selection of vizzes, at the UN's High-Level Political Forum (HLFP) on Sustainable Development in New York City. The event was attended by over 2500 participants, including 77 ministers, cabinet secretaries, and deputy minister. We included a number of vizzes from different international organizations, and also from individual enthusiasts who care deeply about the topic.
In November, we shared vizzes in Bonn, Germany at the COP23 Climate Summit. Together with the team from UN Global Pulse we selected vizzes on the topic of climate change and climate action, and displayed them at the Sustainable Innovation Forum, one of the many COP23 events this year.
The most exciting event for us was probably the UN's General Assembly in September, where the UN Action Campaign for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set up screens in the UN lobby to show a variety of vizzes around their ongoing MY World 2030 survey.
The survey tests people's knowledge of the 17 sustainable development goals, which of these are the most important to them, and where they see the biggest improvements or deteriorations. Earlier this year, with the help of the Tableau Public team, the Action Campaign started brainstorming how they could best show the results of this survey visually. And after a couple of first promising vizzes, it was decided to open up the data to the wider data viz community to see what else its creative members would come up with. In early September a "special data viz" challenge was launched in collaboration with #MakeoverMonday and #VizforSocialGood. And the community accepted the challenge—some 40 incredible interactive visualizations were created by people from all over the world! Everything from simple maps to more complex chart types can be found among the different submissions.
Gayan Peiris from the UN Action Campaign reflects on the project: "Thanks to Eva [Murray] and Chloe [Tseng]'s efforts in organizing and promoting the challenge, we received over 40 incredible visualizations. We are inspired by the commitment and narrative visualization skills of these communities, combining data science, artistic design, and storytelling."
Here is hoping that one of the many politicians participating in the General Assembly had a look at some of these vizzes to get another perspective on how people around the world think about the progress on the SDGs. As Chloe Tseng from #VizForSocialGood said, "Inspiring and impactful, this collaboration is one of the best examples of how we can turn passion into real-life impact. Data visualization is not just numbers and graphs, but rather a catalyst that empowers and influences global leaders." We couldn't agree more and can't wait to see what great things the Tableau community will achieve in the new year.
Editors note: For those who don't know what these hashtags stand for, #MakeoverMonday is a community project run by Eva Murray and Andy Kriebel where every Monday a new dataset is made available and then people from all around the world try their hands at creating a viz out of it, same dataset. #VizForSocialGood, run by Chloe Tseng, is a social nonprofit that helps mission-driven organizations harness the power of data visualization for social change. It helps match nonprofit organizations that have a data projects with the experts from the talented data viz community who love to use their skills to make a social impact.

Wave Theory of Slash
A recent post in brooklinegirl's LJ, and the discussion following, got me thinking about the changes I've seen in slash fandom since I was a wee newbie sprat.
(One of those changes, of course, is that slash fandom has gotten incredibly bigger. I used to be reasonably confident -- that is, I was pretty confident, and I think that that confidence was pretty reasonable -- that I was au courant with most of what was happening in slash as a genre and as a community. That was in, oh, 1992. Today I wouldn't dare even begin to claim that. And even in 1992 I might have been wrong. In 1985 Joanna Russ wrote that "About 125 [K/S] zines have been published since 1975-6, in editions of 500-1500," and I certainly hadn't, and haven't, read them all. I'm musing here about my experience in fandom, as I remember it, looking back sometimes as far as two decades. Other people's experiences will be different, and I'm not denying their validity. Mine is valid too.)
I've been in media and slash fandom for twenty years. I've seen slash go from being one aspect of the fandom of a show ("I'm a Pros fan, and I read both slash and straight"; "I'm a Robin of Sherwood fan, but I only like gen") to being a fandom in its own right. (This has also happened, more recently, with vids. Watching and making vids used to be a way one expressed fannishness for a particular show; now vidding is a fandom in itself. I wonder what the next offshoot will be?)
When I got into slash fandom, it was commonly believed that slash fans were mostly straight women. The question was most often framed by outsiders (the few who studied or commented on the community, albeit usually superficially or mockingly) as, "Why are straight women interested in this?" We ourselves knew that there were numbers of lesbian and bi women in slash, as well (yeah, hi there), but it was generally agreed that most slash fans were straight women. This no longer seems to be the assumption, to put it mildly.
A lot of slash now is clearly and unashamedly about the porn, the hotness. Why else are there communities like stop_drop_porn, and blowjob challenges on ds_recsredux? As I remember slash fandom of fifteen years ago, while a well-told and erotic sex scene was definitely a plus -- and while there were already those who thought that a story without sex didn't qualify as slash* -- the overall goal was usually, or at least publicly spoken of as being, to illuminate the characters, and only secondarily to arouse the reader.
[*They were, and remain, WRONG WRONG WRONG. I hath spoken.]
Not that we had no appreciation of erotic entertainment, of course! I don't want to give the impression that we were all superciliously above such things -- hardly! I believe it was my fannish generation that invented the term "PWP," after all. There was smutty art at conventions -- though then as now it sold better if it depicted a deep connection between the characters, not just sex -- and male strippers as Saturday night entertainment at the first few Escapades, and so on. Nor do I mean to imply, in any way, that slash writers today aren't trying to explore the characters. (Also, I generally look for the NC-17 rating in my own slash reading these days!) But the way they go about it feels different from what I remember from ten and twenty years ago.
A couple of illustrations: My first slash story, written in 1987, contained so much explicit sex that when I submitted it to a zine, I said in my cover letter to the editor that I hoped it wouldn't be a problem, that I hoped that this much sex was OK. Indeed, she didn't have a problem with it, and I never heard that any readers did either; but I was unsure, because it had more detailed, explicit sex than almost anything else I'd read in slash, and certainly than anything I'd read in her zines, which were some of the largest and most well known in the fandom.
IIRC, M. Fae Glasgow, who probably did more than any other single person to push the sexual boundaries of slash in the late 80s and early 90s (she may have done more than any two or three people put together!), once came into a panel at which people were discussing "Why do we like slash?" and said aloud that that was an easy question to answer: "We like it because it makes us hot and wet!" And people were a little taken aback; it's not that they disagreed, exactly, but I had certainly never heard anyone say it out loud and flat like that. Also, of course, the discussion was normally about why it turned us on; the idea that it did and that that was sufficient in itself, a goal in itself, was not a place such discussions usually went.
And I don't remember any feedback or letters of comment that amounted to only "ohmygod that was hot I'll be in my bunk." That particular kind of public response to stories is, I think, relatively new; and it signals a general belief that authors will be pleased to hear it, that authors are working to create that reaction in their readership and will be satisfied with it. (I did once have someone tell me, in a con dealer's room, that they had read a story of mine and -- sly look -- "I was sorry I was reading it in public." I wish I could remember what con and what story this was, so I could date the anecdote, but it was probably in the late 1980s. I was a bit taken aback; I knew it was a compliment, so I was pleased, but I wasn't sure how I was supposed to react to being told this. Today I wouldn't be thrown by it at all.)
Gender was pretty fixed in these stories, although it didn't always seem like it at the time. God knows there were plenty of awful stories in which Doyle or Illya or whoever cried crystal tears and whimpered and clung and trembled, and we generally criticized them as "feminizing" the character. After a few years someone pointed out that it was far more accurate to say that such stories infantilized the character, and I fell on that term with joy, because I'd never been entirely comfortable with saying that such character traits were feminine; but that was the language slash fandom generally used. Henry Jenkins, in Textual Poachers, quoted a 1986 K/S story by GF that described Kirk's and Spock's mouths, open and wet against each other, as like "two vaginas hungering on each other"; but I never saw that story, or a similar gender-bending in any other story.
Certainly certain aspects of gender were blurred in slash from the beginning: a friend of mine once remarked that one of the reasons she liked slash was that in a relationship composed of two men, at least one man had to be doing the emotional work of relationship maintenance that is usually relegated to women in our culture. But it was very clear that men were men and women were women. Amongst all the elf stories and pre-reform Vulcan stories and AUs in which the guys were Cretan bull-jumpers or whatever, I don't remember a single one in which they were women. (Except for a couple ST:TOS riffs on "Turnabout Intruder" and the Pros story my girlfriend and I wrote, which we wrote specifically and deliberately as a joke, and into which we incorporated every horrible fanfic cliche we could think of.) It wasn't unusual for slash stories to include a line about how no woman could ever be so wonderful/kiss him so well/hold him in strong arms/fuck him so gloriously. (Do I need to point out that this is a decade before one of Dan Savage's correspondents coined the term "pegging"?) This is a long, long way from Fraser buying a mail-order pussy so he and RayK can try it out. Misogyny in slash was often debated, and sadly not always too hard to find an example of.
Neither was homophobia. "We're not gay, we just love each other" wasn't always homophobic, but it often was. (When it wasn't, it was a way of increasing and dramatizing the emotional stakes. These guys would do anything for each other -- they are so important to each other that the emotional and physical attraction breaks through not just the barriers of social convention, but even the barriers of their own preexisting sexual preferences. Their love is stronger than their heterosexuality. I'm reminded here of MMWD's recent post on It's Not Incest, We Just Love Each Other, though I haven't followed all the conversations that post sparked...) Of course, it also mattered that nearly all the first big slash couples were located in far more homophobic contexts than those today. K/S is a special case, here -- although we never had any indication that the ST:TOS Federation included anything but straight people, still, authors could have written stories that assumed a welcoming 23rd century society, and for the most part they did not. (Bear in mind that such a society was harder for authors to imagine in 1979 or 1986 or even 1992 than it is today.) But it would have been ridiculous to write Bodie and Doyle, or Starsky and Hutch, or Napoleon and Illya, or even Vinnie and Frank, as not concerned by what it would mean to be in a committed same-sex relationship. (I say "Vinnie and Frank" because Roger wouldn't care :g:) It wasn't until the X-Files that I remarked that if the thing that worries Mulder most about sleeping with Krycek is that it's gay, he seriously needs to reexamine his priorities. So slash BSOs normally had to deal with homophobic contexts, and occasionally were written in what certainly looked like homophobic ways -- and slash fans themselves, of course, sometimes faced homophobic reactions from other fans and from mundane culture.
Torch recently mentioned Lezlie's Wave Theory of Slash, which Lezlie posted to Virgule-L, the slash list (yes, Virginia, at that time there was one slash email list) and published in the Terra Nostra Underground, an apa I was also in, in 1993. You can read it here and here. I see the wave theory as a way of describing the different levels of effort slash writers felt they had to put into convincing their readers that the guys would ever do this; and I think we're now long past fourth wave. When "For reasons that don't need exploring at this juncture" constitutes sufficient explanation for pretty much anything . . . well.
I think this change is largely due to the fact that most of us see sexuality (and gender) as more fluid than we did twenty years ago: our culture does generally, and slash fans do in particular. That's reflected in how we motivate slash (we no longer need to spend five thousand words justifying the idea that a character who seemed straight on screen might possibly still be attracted to another man), and it's also reflected in a lot of slash fans' and slash fandom's self-presentation. Would anyone now argue that a large, perhaps even overwhelming, majority of slash fans are straight women? I said at the beginning that this post (which has been germinating for weeks) was originally inspired by a post of brooklinegirl's; specifically, it was inspired by her concern that slash fandom puts pressure on fans to be queer. Wow.
And yet, while this post was germinating, cimmerians came back from Escapade, having had a terrific time but nonetheless mourning "the ways in which a slash environment is not a queer space". See that question I asked in the previous paragraph? Cimmerians overheard two fans "putting forth the idea that lesbians 'belong in femmeslash', and should leave slash to the nice straight women and gay men." Again I say, wow.
My experience is that, over these past two decades, slash and slash fandom have become much more explicitly sexual; simultaneously, its/our conception of sexuality has become much more fluid and multiple. I see slash now as incorporating more explicitly female sexual energy than it used to: from stories maintaining that "no woman could ever be so good" to stories in which the guys are lesbians, and, pace cimmerians's experience, as generally welcoming fans' sexual energy both in relation to the stories (and vids and art) and in relation to one another.
Excerpts of Comments to the Post
destina:
This is a completely fascinating post. I love to see you getting thinky in public! :D I enjoyed this very much, though I don't have much to say in response. Just that sometimes as a straight woman who loves her slash, I'm often mystified by various aspects/permutations of this discussion; it doesn't matter at all to me if slash fandom is a queer space or an everyspace. It's our space. I still resist the growing implication that slash has to be overtly sexual and porny, that its definition has come to be the number of parts on display rather than the emotional journey leading to the display of parts, and I can feel myself being consigned to the shrinking minority. Which is funny, because I came into fandom on the waning cusp of some of these changes. For me, slash will always be about the emotional dynamics between characters, and I wonder how much that underlying point of view (and my avoidance of PWPs without emotional context) influences all the other things I feel about fandom as a common space, and how resistant I am to the discussions where generalizations are made about misogyny of slash and slashers (particularly wrt any fan who isn't interested in telling stories about female characters, or in femmeslash).

Heh -- just as the middle class has always been rising and youth have always been worse behaved than their elders, that minority has always been shrinking. Personally, I define slash as "fan fiction about two characters of the same sex in a sexual or sexually charged relationship," and I will argue to my last breath that no actual sex, on-screen or off, is required. (Hell, I wrote a Wiseguy slash story that contains no sex and only one character, and he doesn't even know it's a slash story. But I say it is, right down to the blowjob.)
I think there is slash that isn't about the emotional journey and the emotional context, but it's not slash that interests me so much, you know? Even though, at the same time, I've come to be more interested in the sexy aspect of it; it's so much less sexy and less interesting without the emotional context.
laurashapiro:
Thank you so much for this. I just love getting a useful historical perspective on this stuff, and I'm so glad to see it being written down. Our past matters!
klia:
These guys would do anything for each other -- they are so important to each other that the emotional and physical attraction breaks through not just the barriers of social convention, but even the barriers of their own preexisting sexual preferences. Their love is stronger than their heterosexuality.
This, and the equality aspect, were the reasons I became a slash fan. And I'm afraid my sensibilities haven't changed in that regard. I'm still only interested in stories about two guys, not one bully and one crybaby, or two chicks with dicks.
But the biggest change I've seen in slash fandom has been the politicization. I've seen it written for years, now, that if you're not interested in or actively advocating the queer agenda/queer politics, you're considered a homophobe. Not into stories where Mulder and Krycek are living together in San Francisco and tending bar/working security at a Castro Street club while decorating their loft and planning their commitment ceremony? Homophobe. A WNGWJLEO fan? Homophobe. Femmeslash not your thing? Misogynist. Into shows/movies without lead female characters? Misogynist. And I really object to those assumptions. Just because my story preferences are very much centered around the canon universe and *recognizable*, mostly-canonical characterizations does NOT make me a homophobe. And the fact that I'm attracted to/far more interested in male characters does NOT make me a misogynist.
sheron:
I've seen it written for years, now, that if you're not interested in or actively advocating the queer agenda/queer politics, you're considered a homophobe. Or if you like the "we're not gay" thing, then you're a homophobe too, because your characters should be bursting out of the closet and it's shameful to not embrace your (potential) homosexuality and immediately start picking out curtains.... That's not to say I don't enjoy some stories that are domestic in nature, but I'm just not interested in reading about the actual picking out of curtains, or my guys going to an antique fair to buy a quilt, or something. But, to me, there's a difference between domestic and mundane. :P
There have always been lesbians in slash. But I think they used to be less visible, that queer slash fans were visible as individuals but not, perhaps, as an aggregate, if you see what I mean. One of the early explanations for "Why slash?" was more or less "Well, if one dick is good, two are better, plus the reader isn't competing with a woman for the guy(s)," which renders queer female slash fans theoretically irrelevant or invisible . . .
cathexys:
What a wonderful overview of some of the issues I'm most interested in and concerned with on a theoretical level! I really appreciate the historical perspective and think you're right that even as particular fans may be at certain stages, fandom a a whole has changed.
The thing I've been thinking most about recently (which kind of really came to the fore in the gen debates last week) is the way non-romance fanfiction with same-sex loving characters has increased (due to I'd guess any number of reasons, including some writers who enter fandom for the gay/queer fic rather than primarily for the shows), which really makes the definition of slash much more difficult.
So while it may have been romance and now is much more sex, both of these are still slash as I understand it...i'm getting lost when we're getting to the detective/adventure/travel narrative that just happens to have our guys together in there...
kassrachel:
What a delicious ramble; thank you so much for posting this.
I've only been a part of organized fandom since 1999 (which boggles my mind, now; it feels like I've spent my whole life here) so I really enjoy reading remembrances of what fandom was like before I got here. (Kind of like looking through photo albums from the years before I was born, or hearing stories about what my family's life was like before I entered the scene.)
My experience is that, over these past two decades, slash and slash fandom have become much more explicitly sexual; simultaneously, its/our conception of sexuality has become much more fluid and multiple.
<nowiki::nod::</nowiki> That's been my experience too, even just in the 8 years I've been here. It's a fascinating shift. I suspect this has a lot to do with the general fannish move from list culture (public lists and private lists, and also maybe public and private irc channels) to livejournal culture where individual posts or journals can be locked or unlocked, but the conversation is presumed to be distributed across a near-infinite number of journals -- and a much higher degree of self-centeredness or self-revelation is not only tolerated but embraced.
On some level, part of me is still chewing on the Escapade panel from a few years back when we talked about the erotics of our own fannish participation -- the extent to which we write explicitly for one another, and how that shapes our relationships both with the texts at hand and with our communities and our friends. I feel like there's some relationship between that subject and this one, but am not exactly sure how to articulate it...
therealjae:
Thank you for *finally* explaining "they're not gay, they just love each other" in a way that finally helped me get a handle on why some people find that concept romantic. To me it always smacked so much of something that self-deluded gay men would say that it always made me shudder--but "their love is so strong that it goes beyond..." makes perfect sense.
I believe it was sherrold who explained it that way to me, back in the Terra Nostra Underground, but I could be wrong, and I don't want to excavate and blow the dust off eight years' worth of decade-old apas to find it, at this point . . . Like you, I had found WNGWJLEO pretty creepy up to that point, but when whoever-it-was explained it that way, it was as though light burst upon me :g: And of course, if the characters are homophobic (even while they're having gay sex), that doesn't necessarily mean that the story or the author is also homophobic. Internalized homophobia can be an interesting thing to explore in slash!
Interesting post.
Personally, what puzzles me about the more recent fanfiction is how being attracted to a guy immediately makes someone gay, even though before they enjoyed long-term fulfilling relationships with women. It's like while jumping out of one box, we jumped into another.
As well, I wish a lot more authors emphasized the emotional rather than the physical in their stories today.
Would anyone now argue that a large, perhaps even overwhelming, majority of slash fans are straight women?
That certainly seems to be the case to me. I wouldn't say anything like 90%, but maybe 70%, I would assume.
See, that puzzles me, too. One of the reasons I resist the "It's a Gay, Gay, Gay, Gay World!" bandwagon is because the characters I love are canonically straight, and it bothers me that I'm suddenly supposed to think of their marriages/committed het relationships as experimenting with the opposite sex, or mistakes, or something like that. Wouldn't that make them different characters altogether?
I guess I wouldn't call 70% an "overwhelming" majority; but it certainly is a majority. I don't exactly take polls, but it seems to me that I've been in contexts where the percentage of straight women felt more like 20-50%. Still, who knows? It depends on so many things.
arallara:
This was fascinating, thank you. I love hearing these kinds of personal histories of slash fandom from people who have been in it longer than I have. And when I think about the changes I've seen in my seven years (most characterized I suppose by the transition from list culture to LJ culture, and the explosion in explicit identification with queerness on the part of many slashers who might previously have felt more comfortable with the generalizations of heterosexuality), it's kind of incredible to realize just how much more change is apparent to the folks who have been around for 10, 15, 20, even 30 years.
xanphibian:
Fantastic post. I adore hearing about how fandom was in earlier years, and the history and gradual metamorphisis of craft and attitudes. I always feel like such a baby compared to people who've been in fandom for so long, but also heartened that YES, it's totally okay to *stay* in fandom, since that's all I want to do. (of course, that's not at all what the post is about, but I'm a dork that way)
st crispins:
I liked reading your post because we come from the same time period and it brought back memories of our conversations at MediaWest.
I always felt a little (sneakily) fortunate because since I don't write slash, I never had to get caught up in all the debates.
But now Gen is problematic as well. Sigh.
I have pretty much given up on labels, warnings, etc. and frankly it wearies me that the framework has become, in some ways, more important (and sometimes longer and receiving more attention!)than the stories themselves.
Sometimes, being a cranky old menopausal fan, I want to say, "Just write, damn it!"
And if it's good, they will come (sometimes, in more ways than one :) )
keiko_kirin:
Great post! You've expressed many of the thoughts I've been having and couldn't verbalize. And you've expressed them in a coherent, non-ranting, and explanatory way. I've struggled for years over how what I like/write could be considered homophobic, but could never explain WNGWJLEO so well. I've added this post to my memories, because there's so much here I am so glad you said.
Currently in fanspaces, I see assumptions that (a) any fangirl is bi (I don't often feel the default assumption is lesbian, but I also don't feel the default assumption is straight), and (b) any fangirl will be attracted to women characters, find them hot, and find femmeslash hot. I fail miserably on both counts, and there have been a few times and forums where I've felt like I should turn in my fandom membership card for letting the side down, y'know? But then I remember the diversity of just the small group of fans I know, and remember the change in feeling I had, circa 1992, when I discovered that I was not the only little girl who'd fantasized about two men together. No way I'm giving up my membership card, dude! You'll have to pry it from my cold, dead hands.
And the thing is: I am totally 100% there for my fan pals who love women, love femmeslash. That's what's great about fandom, isn't it? That they have this place to play, too. All I want is to be able to keeping playing there as well, keep loving men, loving the m/m dicksex, loving WNGWJLEO or *whatever works for the characters I love* based on their canon, their interactions, their worlds. And to do that without being called a homophobe.
I think GF definitely pushed the envelope with her 1979 novel "Mirrors of Mind and Flesh" with all those incredibly detailed sex scenes. And of course there's her amazing artwork... Definitely! I probably didn't give her enough credit in my musings; I didn't really get into K/S until later, and I guess B7 slash wasn't so smutty at that time. As for her artwork; you know, the first time I ever saw GF, I looked across a room and saw a woman in a flowing patterned dress with a filmy overdress that was also patterned, so that as she moved the two patterns slipped over each other to make an ever-changing, intricate moire; and I said to myself, "That has got to be GF." And indeed it was! (None of the patterns involved delicate flowers with penis stamens, though.)
catalenamara:
K/S is a special case, here -- although we never had any indication that the ST:TOS Federation included anything but straight people, still, authors could have written stories that assumed a welcoming 23rd century society, and for the most part they did not.
But yes, I agree, for the most part early K/S writers did not proceed from the assumption that 23rd century societies would be welcoming of all types of sexualities.
Everything I wrote, "back in the day" proceeded from that very assumption. I generally figured both guys were bi, and went from there. I felt no need to address the issue at all; instead, I used as a background core assumption that two men in a sexual relationship together in the 23rd century wouldn't be in the least bit remarkable. (I think a far more likely 23rd century prejudice would be sex with aliens...)
There were huge, *huge* discussions in the 1970s about whether slash, by its nature, was misogynistic. And I'm sure you'll recall all of those WNGWJLEO panels at MediaWest and ZCon and Escapade where some people practically came to blows over that issue.
I remember convention room parties at Shore Leave in the early 80s where we thrashed out – and left unresolved – many of these same issues.
There wasn't much discussion about femmeslash because, until Blake's 7, there just wasn't much of it (the occasional Chapel/Uhura or Uhura/Rand story aside).
So, I'm not really seeing any really new issues here... Just old issues that have been reframed and re-emphasized, with proportionally more people taking certain positions than you would have seen in the past.
And of course there have been arguments for years that slash "ought" to be this or "ought" to be that or "ought" to prove some point.
My answer to that has always been: "Why?" Why does slash need to be anything other than it is, to each individual reader/writer?

If I had the money I would be buying this Italian property. To find an Italian property in this condition is almost unheard of. If like me you went through your teenage years in the seventies you will either hate or love this property. I'm the latter and could easily see myself next to the bar in my Laura Ashley smoking jacket and a dry martini in my hand.
The house is located within an old estate dating back to the nineteenth century and, despite its unusual style and features, it fits perfectly the place, as masterfully planned by the artist Mariano Benedetti. The villa is built on two floors. Ground floor: huge and bright living room with large panoramic windows, super technological kitchen, space bathrooms, winter garden and an internal swimming pool (very deep, with divingboard and tartan coating). A metal and glass staircase (or alternatively a lift) leads to the upper floor: six bedrooms, all with ensuite bathrooms and wardrobe + a large balcony with great view. In the basement: boiler rooms, laundry, storage rooms. On the ground floor a futuristic corridor leads to a second spiral staircase into the discotheque set within a UFO-shaped outbuilding. The unique style of this property makes it a cult object and a collection piece for those who love art and architecture.

Online polls are unscientific, informal, prone to cheating and – in a rural county such as Rappahannock – at best represent only the fraction of the population who have internet access. We received, in four and a half days, twice as many responses as we did for our last survey, which was online for a week, but still: the total number of people who took the survey was 104.
That said, most of the six contested races appearing on Rappahannock County voters' ballots this Nov. 8 appear to be fairly close, according the results of our survey, which was posted from last Friday morning (Oct. 28) through noon Tuesday (Nov. 1) here on RappNews.com.
The exception appears to be the race for sheriff, led by an excessively large margin by incumbent Connie C. Smith. In the race for the new 18th district seat in the House of Delegates – a district that many say will always favor the Republican candidate – Republican Michael Webert's lead was not a commanding one – but Rappahannock is the smallest part of a district that spans parts of Fauquier, Warren and Culpeper counties.
Not surprisingly, potential voters from the Hampton district (which contains the county seat of Washington) were most active in the poll.
We asked for answers only in the contested races on the Nov. 8 ballot in Rappahannock. Poll vote percentages and selected comments from participants are included below. For the actual vote counts (but not the comments included below), you can download a PDF of the survey results.

Rappahannock News: Just because you have a technology doesn't mean you should use it. In fact, I'll give you some reasons from your own article why publishing this article is bad journalism: "Online polls are unscientific, informal, prone to cheating and – in a rural county such as Rappahannock – at best represent only the fraction of the population who have internet access." Next year, why don't you try to conduct a scientific poll. That would really be useful. This article was less than useful.
I personally know how much time and effort Amy Hitt puts in for the kids at Rappahannock County. People can say what they would like about her "upsetting everything she is involved with" but I know for a fact she only has the best intrest for the kids in mind. How many events and fund raisers do you see her at? How many countless hours has she put into raising money for athletics, she has 2 boys in the school system, it is obvious she will give 100% to do what is best for the students and the school!
