CHILDREN SHOULDN'T PLAY WITH DEAD THINGS has tried the patience of many a zombie fan over the years with its purposely annoying cast, focus on sub-witty dialogue, and elongated build-up to a low on intestine-chomping climax. Personally, I have a soft spot for the film. I remember staying up late for it, and being truly terrified by its bizarre soundtrack, questionable reliance on slow-mo, and truly satisfying final frames. Even haters have to admit that there is a delicious CLOVERFIELD moment in this film where you just think to yourself, "I can't wait to see these people die." As a kid, I was just worried for this sad lot trapped on a potter's field island where the dead had come to life. I had no idea that they were sycophantic thespians following their douchebag director's whims, that they had pretty much begged for the outcome that occurs by mocking the dead or even that the two HECKLE AND JECKLE type henchmen were wince inducing over-the-top stereotypes of gay men. Directed by BOB CLARK whose BLACK CHRISTMAS, let's face it, begat HALLOWEEN which, let's face it, begat everything I care about on this planet, and co-written and starring ALAN ORMSBY who not only had his hand in DERANGED and 1982's CAT PEOPLE but also wrote MY BODYGUARD, C.S.P.W.D.T. is as hard to defend as it is to ignore. It may come across like a local theater production of NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD with costumes provided by THE MONKEES, but there is a very real sense of being trapped and cornered that always gets to me regardless of the fact that most of the script apparently was later used to provide biting dialogue for THE ROPERS. The defiant refusal to follow a template structure really does pay off once in a while, like when the couple voted most likely to be "final" instead end up unceremoniously eaten. As obnoxious as most of the characters are, they are at least always distinguishable from each other, a rarity these days. Really, how can you not get behind a flick whose most compelling and sympathetic presence is a corpse named Orville?
The first couple false scares. I admit it I fell for them.
Lovable Orville gets his just revenge!
The commercial for this movie used to scare me so bad, i would go into the bathroom, shut the door, cover my ears and stomp until it was over.
Man I was a wimp. My father was embarrassed for me.
Still haven't seen the movie.
I used to know a cellar who looked, sounded, spoke and dressed JUST like the theatre group leader in this film. Very odd.

Austria >> Vienna >> Sightseeing in Vienna
Most of the main sights in Vienna are concentrated in the old inner city known as the Innerstadt . These include the Hofburg (Imperial Palace), home to the Habsburgs during the winter months and now the Austrian President's office. The Hofburg contains both modern and medieval structures - the central room inside the palace complex houses one of the most awesome Baroque showpieces anywhere. Walking around the expansive grounds, one comes across the famous Spanish Riding Stables where one can watch horses train (mid - February to June and November to mid - December). The Neue Berg (the new wing of the Imperial Palace) has a series of museums from one for musical instruments (one of which is Beethoven's piano) to one of classical antiquity.
Designed by von Erlach is the splendid Schonbrunn Palace on the southwestern edge of the city, which is the site of state occasions, international conferences and historic treaties.
Also in the Innerstadt is one of Vienna's most treasured symbols, St. Stephen's Cathedral or the Stephansdom. The smoothly tapered South Tower of the Cathedral has become Vienna's emblem and it is worth taking the trouble to climb its 343 steps to get a fabulous view of the city. A band of streets known as the Ringstrasse lines the Innerstadt and contains a big chunk of the city's architectural jewels, including the Staatsoper, the Parliament House, The Museum of Art History and the City Hall. The Staatsoper (State Opera House) was destroyed in World War II, but was rebuilt and re-opened in 1955. The best way to admire its fabulous gold, crystal and red -velvet interior is to see an opera inside.
Outside the inner city and the Ringstrassen lies the old suburb that contains the Belvedere Palace and the Karlskirche (Church of St. Charles) also built by the great Austrian architect von Erlach.
Gustav Klimt's famous painting, The Kiss, is displayed in the Belvedere. Of the museums worth seeing in Vienna, the Albertina houses art by some of the greatest masters such as Rembrandt, Michaelangelo and Correggio. The Museum of Fine Arts boasts of works by Durer, Titian, Raphael besides housing the largest collection of Bruegel.
The Freud Museum is where Sigmund Freud developed modern psychiatry and treated his first patients, although the famous (or infamous?!) original couch is missing! The Heeresgeschichtliches Museum (Museum of Military History) houses impressive items like the armour and Turkish tents confiscated from the Turks during the 16th century siege of Vienna, as well as fighter planes and tanks. The best piece here perhaps is the bullet-riddled car in which the Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife were riding when they were assassinated in 1914.
Some of the remaining sights in Vienna include the Stadttempel the only synagogue of Vienna's 94 temples to escape Nazi destruction in 1938, the fascinating clock – Ankeruhr - north of the Hoher Markt (an ancient cobblestone square) and the Schatzkammer or the Treasury (containing items like the crown jewels, the imperial crowns, and the imperial christening robes).

Dr. Man Ki Kim Receives GCA 2020 Lifetime Achievement Award
Government Contractors Association Announces Dr. Man Ki Kim, Professor at KAIST College of Business, Awarded GCA 2020 Lifetime Achievement Award.
ATLANTA, GA, September 14, 2020 /24-7PressRelease/ — Dr. Man Ki Kim, Professor at KAIST College of Business (www.business.kaist.edu) and Global Public Procurement Management Program, was awarded Government Contractors Association 2020 Lifetime Achievement Award at our Board of Directors Conference held in Atlanta, Georgia.
"It is with great privilege for me to bestow to Dr. Man Ki Kim GCA's LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD and the honorary designation of CERTIFIED CAPTURE MANAGER for his commitment to the small business community and contribution in public procurement service," said Abraham Xiong, CEO of Government Contractors Association. "GCA extends our gratitude to Dr. Kim for his ongoing work to empower entrepreneurs and corporations around the world, especially the underserved small business community in the USA."
"I am humbled and honored to be recognized by GCA and its Board of Directors with this Lifetime Achievement Award," said Dr. Kim. "I'm fortunate to live my life's mission of serving my community and the international community in fostering business and public procurement opportunities. I am fully committed to develop KAIST's Global Public Procurement Management Program to support SMBs to enter global procurement market such as US Fed, US, EU and MDBs."
The Lifetime Achievement Award was conferred in recognition of Dr. Kim's leadership and passion to educate the businesses of South Korea and the USA on international trade and the public procurement market.
Through his role as a Professor with KAIST University and as a Senior Advisor of Global Public Procurement at Yulchon, Dr. Kim is a bridge for international business cooperation through the multiple trade missions with US small companies entering the South Korean market and vice versa.
Prior to moving back to his native country of South Korea, Dr. Kim and his wife started a small business in Reston, Virginia as a federal government contractor. Their success of winning over $35 million in government contracts led to his passion to encourage and educate others about the opportunities in the public procurement marketplace.
"I'm proud to see our small business members work with Dr. Kim as he has helped open many doors for US based companies in finding manufacturers and suppliers in the international market," stated Richard Brooks, CFO of GCA.

Pulitzer Prize - Fiction
Belong to Me
Three or four times a year, despite the odds against it happening, I end up really enjoying a book that in theory just should not have worked for me at all. Belong to Me was one of those books, the first one in that category this year, in fact. Two words sum up the reluctance I had about reading the book: Chick Lit. The book synopsis screamed "Chick Lit" to me loudly and clearly but the novel seemed to have such a good word-of-mouth buzz going that I took a second look at it. And, yes, it probably is Chick Lit, but at the same time it is the kind of novel that will appeal to readers of both sexes.
This is a book about relationships and what holds them together. It is about parents and children, husbands and wives, old friends and new friends, and the ever changing combinations that evolve from those relationships. It asks whether or not a person can ever really "belong" to another and whether it is selfish to expect that of anyone. It is a character-driven novel filled with enough interesting and quirky people to keep the reader turning pages until its gradually developing plotline reaches the point of making it impossible to put the book down. It is, in other words, a very good book.
Cornelia and Teo, her physician husband, have moved from New York City to a quiet Philadelphia suburb that reminds them of the neighborhood in which they spent their childhoods. The young couple might be a little wary of the lifestyle change they are making, but they want, and expect, to fit neatly into their new neighborhood. Cornelia, though, learns almost immediately that it won't come easy for them when she meets Piper (rhymes with viper), the Queen of the Neighborhood, who doesn't bother with much tact when explicitly pointing out to Cornelia what is expected of any neighbor of hers.
Lake Tremain and her son, Dev, enter the picture just in time to throw Cornelia a lifeline when she needs it most. The two have moved from California so that Dev can attend a prestigious high school while his mother tries to make ends meet by working as a waitress. Lake and Cornelia quickly become friends, giving Cornelia the ally she needs when it comes to dealing with Piper the Viper.
Dev is one of those characters I will remember for a long time. He's a fifteen-year old genius with a great sense of humor and an even greater sense of ethics and morality. I really liked this kid and was happy to see him emerge as one of the book's main characters. But this book is simply filled with likable characters, among them Dev's new girlfriend, Claire, an almost perfect, but not trouble free, match for him. Even Piper, a character whose first impression was far from positive, evolved into someone I could respect and like by the end of the story.
Belong to Me is a sequel to Love Walked In but I am proof that it is not necessary to read that one first. I believed that I was reading a standalone novel the whole time and had no idea that many of its characters had been introduced in an earlier book until after I finished it. This one was fun, a nice change-of-pace for someone like me who came to it so reluctantly.

Today, chick lit, tomorrow, Sex and the City! ;)
Sam Friday, June 6, 2008 at 10:15:00 PM CDT
Ouch...I guess I deserved that. :-)
Bybee Saturday, June 7, 2008 at 1:17:00 AM CDT
Some of the people on my blogroll have raved about this book, but I held off because it is Chick Lit and their taste is a little more ..uh, woman-y than mine. But now I'm going to read it, based on your say-so.
ELIZABETH Saturday, June 7, 2008 at 12:32:00 PM CDT
I passed it by ..chick lit .. but going back now after your review.
Rainy Saturday, June 7, 2008 at 10:55:00 PM CDT
Love Walked In is also quite good....worth trying if you liked this second one!
jenclair Sunday, June 8, 2008 at 1:54:00 PM CDT
I'm so glad you enjoyed it. I had the same reservations, but thoroughly enjoyed the book.
Sam Monday, June 9, 2008 at 6:18:00 PM CDT
Bybee, I'd still call this "chick lit" but it has a broader appeal than just that and doesn't deserve to be typecast that way. Hope you like it.
Elizabeth, I hope I haven't mislead you...it surprised me that I enjoyed it so much, and that's a very good thing to have happen.
rpl, I've heard that the first is more certainly "chick lit" than the sequel and I'm a little leery for that reason...just not ready for the hardcore stuff. :-)
Jenclair, sounds like it surprised you the same way it did me. Don't you love when that happens...rather than the other way around?

This is a list of notable events in the history of LGBT rights that took place in the 1960s.

Events during this period

1960
 January 20 – The United States Court of Federal Claims overturns the Other Than Honorable discharge issued by the United States Air Force to Fannie Mae Clackum for her alleged homosexuality. This is the first known instance of a homosexuality-related discharge being successfully fought, although the case turned on due process issues and did not affect the military's policy of excluding homosexuals from service. This was an amazing relief to those who were homosexual.
 June – The National Assembly of France passes the Mirguet Amendment, which declares homosexuality, along with alcoholism and prostitution, a "social scourge" and urges the government to take action against it.

1961
 March 20 – The United States Supreme Court denies certiorari to Frank Kameny's petition to review the legality of his firing by the United States Army's Map Service in 1957, bringing his four-year legal battle to a close.
 July 28- Illinois Governor Otto Kerner (D) signs Laws of Illinois 1961, a set of revisions to the state's legal code which include repeal of Illinois' sodomy law.
 September 11 – KQED in San Francisco broadcasts The Rejected, the first made-for-television documentary about homosexuality on American television.
 November 7 – José Sarria, the first known openly gay candidate for political office in the world, shocks political observers by garnering nearly 6,000 votes in his bid for a seat on the San Francisco Board of Supervisors. This feat marked the beginning of the notion that gays could represent a powerful voting bloc.
 November 15 — After three months of preliminary meetings, Frank Kameny and Jack Nichols formally found the Mattachine Society of Washington, D.C.

1962
 After a "gayola" scandal in which police officers demanded payoffs from gay bar owners, officer Elliott Blackstone is designated by San Francisco Police Department as the department's first liaison officer to the "homophile community", a position which is today replicated in various police departments as an LGBT liaison officer and an early example of community policing.
 The first LGBTQ business association, the Tavern Guild, is formed by gay bar owners in San Francisco.
 January 1 – Illinois' new criminal code goes into effect, making it the first state in the United States to strike down sodomy laws.
 June 25 – The United States Supreme Court rules in MANual Enterprises v. Day that photographs of nude or semi-nude men designed to appeal to homosexuals are not obscene and may be sent through the mail.

1963
 January – East Coast Homophile Organizations (ECHO) is established in Philadelphia; initial members include the regional chapters of Daughters of Bilitis, Janus Society, and Mattachine Society.
 October 30 – Following a 15-year campaign to close it down, the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control revokes the liquor license of the Black Cat Bar, a focus of early gay activism in the San Francisco Bay Area.

1964
 February – The Black Cat Bar, having struggled for several months to survive without liquor sales, closes permanently.
 April 25 – The Fun Lounge police raid near Chicago resulted in 109 arrests and led to the creation of Mattachine Midwest, a gay rights organization modeled after the Mattachine Society.
 September 19 – A small group pickets the Whitehall Street Induction Center in New York City after the confidentiality of gay men's draft records was violated. This action has been identified as the first gay rights demonstration in the United States.
 December 2 – Four gay men and lesbians picket a New York City lecture by a psychoanalyst espousing the model of homosexuality as a mental illness. The demonstrators are given ten minutes to make a rebuttal.

1965
January 1 – San Francisco police arrest gay and lesbian party-goers at a fund-raising ball for the Council on Religion and the Homosexual, held at California Hall, an event which galvanizes the local gay and lesbian community.
April 17 – Ten gay and lesbian demonstrators picket the White House in Washington, D.C., the first in a series of demonstrations staged this year by the East Coast Homophile Organization (ECHO).
April 18 – Twenty-nine ECHO demonstrators picket the United Nations in New York City.
 April 25 – An estimated 150 people participate in a sit-in when the manager of Dewey's restaurant in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, refused service to several people he thought looked gay. Four people are arrested, including homophile rights leader Clark Polak of Philadelphia's Janus Society. All four are convicted of disorderly conduct. Members of the society also leaflet outside the restaurant the following week and negotiate with the owners to bring an end to the denial of service.
May 29 – Ten men and three women participate in an ECHO picket of the White House.
 June 16 — The United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit rules in Scott v. Macy that the United States Civil Service Commission "may not rely on a determination of 'immoral conduct' based only on such vague labels as 'homosexual' and 'homosexual conduct' as a ground" for disqualifying applicants for federal employment.
July 4 – ECHO pickets Independence Hall in Philadelphia on Independence Day. This is the first in a series of actions, called the Annual Reminder, held each July 4 through 1969.
 September 26 – Thirty people picket Grace Cathedral to protest punitive actions taken against Rev. Canon Robert Cromey for his involvement in the Council on Religion and the Homosexual, an alliance between LGBT people and religious leaders.
October 23 – Thirty-five ECHO demonstrators picket the White House. The last White House picket; demonstrators felt, with this event, that picketing the White House had lost its effectiveness as a tactic.

1966
 January – The South African Police raid a gay party attended by about 300 people in Forest Town, a suburb of Johannesburg. This attracts much public and political attention, leading in 1969 to an extension of the criminalization of male homosexuality.
 January 21 – Time magazine publishes an unsigned two-page article, "The Homosexual in America".  The article includes statements such as "Homosexuality is a pathetic little second-rate substitute for reality, a pitiable flight from life. ...  it deserves no encouragement ... no pretense that it is anything but a pernicious sickness."
 February 18 – The first meeting of the coalition of gay rights groups that will become the North American Conference of Homophile Organizations takes place in Kansas City, Missouri.
 April 21 – Activists stage a "Sip-In" at Julius, a bar in New York City, challenging a state Liquor Authority regulation prohibiting serving alcohol to homosexuals on the basis that they are disorderly. Although the resultant complaint to the Liquor Authority results in no action, the city's human rights commission declares that such discrimination could not continue.
 May 21 – A coalition of homophile organizations across the country organizes simultaneous demonstrations for Armed Forces Day. The Los Angeles group holds a 15-car motorcade (which has been identified as the nation's first gay pride parade) and activists hold pickets in the other cities.
 July 18 – Around 25 people picket Compton's Cafeteria in San Francisco when new management begins using Pinkerton agents and police to harass gay and transgender customers.
 August – Gay and transgender customers riot at Compton's in response to continued police harassment. The restaurant and the surrounding neighborhood sustain heavy damage. The following night demonstrators throw up another picket line, which quickly descends into new violence and damage to the restaurant.
 September – The Chicago chapter of the Mattachine Society pickets the Chicago Tribune and the Chicago Sun-Times for routinely ignoring press material and refusing advertising from the organization.

1967
The book Homosexual Behavior Among Males: A Cross-Cultural and Cross-Species Investigation by Wainwright Churchill III breaks ground as a scientific study approaching homosexuality as a fact of life rather than as a sin, crime or disease, and introduces the term "homoerotophobia", a possible precursor to "homophobia".
Pierre Trudeau, then Canada's Minister of Justice, introduces an Omnibus Bill to overhaul Canada's criminal laws, which includes decriminalizing homosexual acts.

The seductive power of holiday windows resonates in the French term for window-shopping: 'lèche-vitrines,' which translated literally means to lick the windows. (Shutterstock)
Holiday windows: The allure of showing and hiding makes us look

The end of the year is often relished as a time for slowing down: for replaying memories, watching snowflakes dance in the glow of streetlights and lingering just a little longer around the dinner table. At the same time, it's a period of rushing: deadlines, parties, travel and perhaps a foray to the shopping mall, a department store or a busy high street.
These polar experiences shine a unique light on the shop window.
During the holiday season, the commercial window displays that otherwise blend into the backdrop of the urban consumer landscape are foregrounded as indispensable features of the festive period. The holiday window is laden with nostalgia and associations of childhood traditions and a longing for drawn-out moments.
Yet the window is simultaneously a vehicle for consumerist and capitalist desires, grounded in 19th-century material innovations, and political, economic and consumer trends — designed to seduce and to sell.
Christmas shoppers, window shopping in New York. (Bain News Service, Library of Congress Prints and Photographs Division)
Behind privacy screens
Visual merchandising, or as it was previously called, window-dressing, is the task of designing and arranging displays of merchandise.
The world of fashion display captures seemingly incompatible experiences of time — anchored by the allure of showing and hiding.
What distinguishes "fashion" from the neutral "clothing" or "dress" is the extraordinary pace at which it evolves. Fashion is fleeting. Fashion is change. The modern fashion system is premised on the rapid rate at which new styles are outmoded and replaced, resulting in problematic and planet-damaging practices of fashion production, transportation and marketing.
Read more: Fast fashion lies: Will they really change their ways in a climate crisis?
Fashion's ephemerality is supported by its presentation and display. Merchandising often happens overnight when stores are closed. The all-important shop window display is installed behind privacy screens. When the screens are removed and the completed scene appears suddenly, as if by magic. The mythology of consumerism is tethered to the invisibility of labour.
Timeless permanence
Window displays typically come and go as quickly and unceremoniously as fashion trends. Grand department stores, however, host special events around the "unveiling" of their holiday windows.
For nearly 60 years, Ogilvy's department store in Montréal was a rare exception to the tendency of ushering in new windows each holiday season.
Starting in 1947, Ogilvy displayed one of two holiday scenes annually. The "Enchanted Forest" and "Mill in the Forest," both designed by a German toy company, were donated by Holt Renfrew Ogilvy to the McCord Museum in 2018.
For the past two years the McCord Museum has exhibited one of the window displays in a freestanding outdoor showcase. The other is on view inside the museum. That a public history museum acquired window displays suggests that commercial windows are more than temporary marketing tools. The museum archive symbolizes a timeless permanence not often associated with such commercial endeavours.
Absence of price tags, labour
Innovations in engineering in the second half of the nineteenth century produced two materials key to the retail window and other commercial systems of European modernity: cast iron and plate glass.
The Crystal Palace, the central pavilion of London's Great Exhibition (1851), was built entirely of cast iron and plate glass. Inside, consumer commodities were displayed amongst a cornucopia of technological achievements, industrial marvels and colonial propaganda.

In the vast light-flooded "palace," the consumer goods of modernity were bestowed with new meaning. Removed from the dark and cramped confines of Victorian shops, they were no longer simple measures of economic or material value alone. The magnificent displays and the absence of price tags or signs of labour transformed the commercial objects into vehicles of symbolic value.
French social and literary theorist Roland Barthes remarked that sight is the most magical of the senses and touch the most demystifying — perhaps a productive way to consider the spectacle of commodities and goods championed in the Crystal Palace. Thomas Richards, formerly a literature professor at Harvard, suggests this analysis in The Commodity Culture of Victorian England.
Yet for others, the Crystal Palace's iron-and-glass construction and emphasis on visual display shows modernity's preoccupation with surfaces.
Pleasure in 'just looking'
Consumerism grew rapidly in the decades following the Great Exhibition. The department stores that proliferated in metropolitan centres used plate glass to construct windows in unprecedented proportions. The project that started in the Crystal Palace flourished.
The window showcased the variety of goods on offer, and the dominant approach to window-dressing in this period was "the more the merrier." Neither wholly public nor private, the spectacle of the window display was key to luring passersby into the store. Those who admired the goods outside practised a novel pastime: window-shopping. The visual rather than economic consumption of goods attests to the pleasure in "just looking."
This suggests that shoppers aren't simply "consumers," but are also "spectators." The seductive power of modern window displays is clear in the French term for window-shopping: lèche-vitrines. Translated literally, it means to lick the windows.
Lovechild of modernity
Images of window-shoppers occupy our cultural imagination, from the solitary Audrey Hepburn in the opening scene of Breakfast at Tiffany's to the crowds descending on Simpsons' "Christmas Tree" store in Toronto, both from 1961.
Photographs of children with noses enthusiastically squished against the windowpane read as timeless signs of the season. The temporary installation of risers in front of holiday window displays is a reminder of these important "consumers."
Small children gazing through Macy's toy window, New York City, between 1908 and 1915. (Library of Congress, Prints and Photographs Division)
Shop windows are the lovechild of modernity's restlessness and capitalist obsession with the new. Yet, there is an irony in the fact that these windows might offer a moment of respite from the anxieties and hurry created by our commercially-driven world.
These retail windows mark a unique intersection in the landscape of consumer culture — one where the pace of modern life meets the desire to slow down.

Last month, Cristin Lassen was appointed to the Tehachapi Valley Recreation & Park District Board by the Tehachapi City Council. The March 12 TVRPD Board meeting was Lassen's first meeting as a member of that Board. Michael Biglay of Sand Canyon argued that as far as he knew, the two County appointed members of the Board had not been reappointed when their term expired so there was no quorum. Chairman Laura Lynne Wyatt assured him that he could check the minutes of the February Kern County Board of Supervisors meeting during which they were reappointed. Ian Steele was unanimously elected the new board chairman with Laura Lynne Wyatt as vice chairman.
General Manager Michelle Vance said that TVRPD is planning to apply for four grants that could be financed through Proposition 68 (Parks, Environment and Water Bond) which was passed by voters in June of last year. The grants can be applied to one project only and must have three partners – a nonprofit, a health partner and a neighborhood partner. A district can apply for as many grants as they wish so TVRPD could, in theory, be competing against itself for a project grant.
One grant application would be for the revitalization of West Park, one for Central Park, one for Meadowbrook Park and one for the development of new park facilities in Sand Canyon. Before the August application deadline, there will be five public meetings for each of the applications, which all district residents can attend. As the park district does not have any staff engineers, the TVRPD Board approved the hiring of MNS Engineers, who already have a track record with the City, to engineer the projects following the public meetings.

Auryn Resources drills 12.2 meters of 4.7g/t gold in a new discovery 12 kilometers north of the Three Bluffs deposit
Vancouver, British Columbia – September 14th, 2017 – Auryn Resources Inc. (TSX: AUG, NYSE American: AUG, "Auryn" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the first drill results ever from the Aiviq prospect located 12 kilometers north of the Three Bluffs deposit (Figure 1). Highlights from the Aiviq prospect include 12.2 meters of 4.7g/t Au (including 3.05 meters of 18.09 g/t Au) intersected in an interpreted silicified shear zone (Figure 1). These results are the first step in defining a new discovery on the Committee Bay Greenstone Belt in a newly recognized style of mineralization.
The mineralization encountered at Aiviq is situated along a regional shear zone that is defined by a 7 kilometer long gold-in-till anomaly. This shear zone was tested by a single drill fence during the 2017 summer drill program leaving the prospect wide open to expansion. The other holes drilled at this prospect did not target or intersect this shear zone. Importantly, the high-grade mineralization intersected in drill hole 17RGR003 is situated within a 100 meter wide zone of lower grade structures that demonstrate the overall strength and potential of the gold bearing system (Figure 2). Auryn believes that a follow up drill program along this shear zone is highly warranted given the similar nature of the till signatures and comparable high grade gold values to those found at the Three Bluffs deposit.
Aiviq's proximity to Three Bluffs allows the Company to leverage the substantial existing exploration infrastructure already in place at its Hayes Camp for future drilling and potential development.
Michael Henrichsen, Chief Geologist and COO of Auryn commented, "Auryn's technical team has done an outstanding job of vectoring to high-grade gold mineralization under till cover at the newly defined Aiviq prospect. We view this high-grade intercept as the first step to defining a significant new discovery at Committee Bay and are looking forward to aggressively exploring the 7 kilometer long gold-in-tills anomaly along the mineralized shear zone in 2018."
Mr. Henrichsen further stated, "The proximity of the Three Bluffs deposit with this new discovery, creates the potential for a multi-deposit scenario utilizing common infrastructure as we expand the Three Bluffs resource and continue our exploration efforts at Aiviq."
Additional positive results were received from the Aarluk prospect where 4.57 meters of 2.52 g/t gold was intersected in banded iron formation where there are 3 holes pending assay. This prospect is located 17 kilometers to the north of Aiviq (Figure 1) and remains open demonstrating the emerging importance of the north-south trending 30 kilometer long structural corridor from Three Bluffs through to Aarluk.
Rotary Air Blast (RAB) Drilling Results:
To date the Company has received complete results from the Aiviq, Kalulik, West Plains, Ziggy South, Avinngaq, and partial results from the Aarluk prospect (3 holes pending assay) representing a total of 39% of the drill program.
Significant intercepts from the Aiviq, Kalulik, and Aaluk prospects are reported in the table below. The summer exploration RAB drill program completed 30,133 meters in 156 holes with 61% of the remaining results to be released in the coming months.

"We need to take a hard look at policies at the Department of Education and other city agencies," said Council Member Brad Lander. "Thousands of hard working New Yorkers like Mr. Willmore are arrested each year on low-level charges that are eventually dismissed, and far too many of them face automatic job-loss, among other severe and life-changing consequences."
"Being arrested for marijuana possession isn't a mere inconvenience. It can have long-lasting consequences for employment, housing, child custody and other areas of a person's life," said Alfredo Carrasquillo, VOCAL's Civil Rights Organizer. "The NYPD's aggressive and racially biased policing practices have not made us safer, but they have produced tens of thousands of marijuana arrests each year. These arrests have led to hundreds of millions of dollars in policing and court costs and incalculable damage to the lives of hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers, mostly Black and Latino youth, who have been unlawfully arrested under the Bloomberg administration."
"Almost 6000 16- and 17-year-olds were prosecuted in adult criminal courts for marijuana misdemeanors in 2010 in New York State," said Alison Wilkey, Director of Policy and Legal Services at Youth Represent. "Even an arrest can cause problems later down the road when a young person applies for a job, an internship, or college. Putting teenagers through the adult courts for marijuana possession just doesn't make sense."
"It's unfortunately common to see marijuana possession arrests leading to this kind of injustice," said Molly Kovel, a attorney at The Bronx Defenders specializing in the civil consequences of arrests. "People lose their jobs when they are arrested for possession of tiny amounts of marijuana – even when they are not ultimately convicted. And the penalties don't stop there – you can lose your housing, your student loans, custody of your kids, and even your greencard, simply for a marijuana misdemeanor."

The Happy Ending is a 1922 play by the British writer Ian Hay. A man believed to have died a heroic wartime death returns home alive, and blackmails his wife into supplying him with money. Before the truth is revealed to their children, he redeems himself by a genuinely brave death.

It premiered at Devonshire Park in Eastbourne before beginning its run in the West End. It ran for 43 performances at St James's Theatre between 30 November 1922 and 13 January 1923. The cast included Adele Dixon, Robert Loraine and Jean Cadell, Ethel Irving and Miles Malleson.

Adaptations
The story has been made into films twice. In 1925 Gaumont British adapted it as a silent film The Happy Ending starring Fay Compton and Jack Buchanan. Six years later the same studio remade it as a sound film The Happy Ending with Cyril Raymond and Anne Grey.

ALMONT, CO – Have you ever wanted to learn more about the lifecycles of aquatic insects? Or new techniques for fly tying and casting? Perhaps you have always wanted to tour a fish hatchery, or learn more about river conservation. Well, sixteen youth had that very opportunity this past month. From June 10 to June 16, teens from across Colorado came together at the Silent Spring Resort in Almont, CO, for the 10th Annual Colorado TU Youth Conservation and Fly Fishing Camp.
Organized by CTU staff and volunteers, the week-long camp offers unique, hands-on opportunities to learn about bugs, hydrology, fly-tying, casting, knots, reading water, and safe wading techniques. This year, campers also enjoyed presentations from outside speakers that included: water law, the Natural Resource Conservation Service, a tour of ranch land near Gothic, CO by the Crested Butte Land Trust, and a walk-through of the Roaring Judy Fish Hatchery. The week was capped off with a willow-planting project on the Gunnison River, some great fishing, and a private screening of the Fly Fishing Film Tour, made possible by Mayfly Media.
In addition to becoming better anglers, these young adults learned the importance of conservation and the impact it has on their favorite waters. Campers also made life-long friends and connected with a whole new watershed. The CTU Youth Conservation and Fly Fishing Camp has now completed a decade of getting youth out on the water and teaching the next generation of anglers. We are proud to see so many students returning year after year as counselors, sharing what they learned and inspiring their peers.
For more information about the 2019 CTU Youth Conversation and Fly Fishing Camp, please contact Dan Omasta, domasta@tu.org.

There are countless Twitter handles dedicated to travel. Some are excellent at sharing photographs, some at detailing the world's most mouthwatering dishes, while others are reporting on the most luxurious hotels and spas. And, of course, there are those bringing you advice for traveling on a budget.
Between writing about travel and serving as a social media manager, I've spent more than my fair share of hours scanning Twitter for interesting travel leads. Here are a few of my favorite travel Twitter handles to follow that will be especially interesting to budget-minded readers.

This one's particularly great for our Starting Out readers. STA Travel specializes in discount travel for students and young people. And on Twitter, STA shares numerous deals on its already discounted excursions. Give it a follow to double down on savings.
Don't let the name fool you: There's more to this handle besides New York City. For weather and traffic updates from airports across the country, this is one to follow and check before your next flight. Again, it might not save you much money, but it could keep you from rushing to the airport only to find out your flight has been delayed.

مفهوم قدرت همواره در کانون مطالعات مربوط به مباحث سیاست جهان جای داشته است. این در حالی می‌باشد که این مفهوم در برهه‌های زمانی مختلف از جنبه‌های متفاوتی تغییر یافته و مورد بررسی قرار گرفته است. به‌طوری‌که طی سه دهه‌ی اخیر، شاهد تحولات گسترده‌ای در قدرت از نظر ماهیت، آرایش، روابط و ساختار بوده‌ایم. هدف عمده این نوشتار، واکاوی و تشریح دگرگونی‌های صورت گرفته در ساختار قدرت در نظام اقتصاد سیاسی جهانی می‌باشد. این ساختار قدرت نیز تغییرات خود را غالبا در دو حوزه غیردولتی یا خصوصی شدن اقتدار سیاسی و برآمدن پدیده مزیت رقابتی یا رقابت‌پذیری متجلی و نمایان می‌سازد. این تحولات در ساختار قدرت بالطبع منجر به تحولاتی در دولت‌ها نیز خواهد شد، به‌طوری‌که همگام با این دگرگونی ها، دولت‌ها نیز در پی تغییر نقش و اتخاذ سیاست‌های نوینی در این راستا می‌باشند. لذا، «دولت رقابت» یا «دولت ناظر» می‌تواند دولتی باشد که با الزامات ساختار فعلی قدرت، قرابت و هم‌خوانی بیشتری دارد. بدین‌جهت این مقاله درصدد است تا به این پرسش اساسی پاسخ دهد که آیا تغییر ساختار قدرت در نظام اقتصاد سیاسی جهانی تاثیری بر شکل‌گیری دولت رقابتی داشته است؟ فرضیه مطرح شده آن می‌باشد که تغییر ساختار قدرت در نظام اقتصاد سیاسی جهانی از طریق ملزم ساختن دولت‌ها به تمرکززدایی موجبات شکل‌گیری دولت رقابتی را فراهم آورده است. در این راستا بهره‌گیری از نظریات متفکری چون فیلیپ سرنی یاری‌رسان ما در این امر خواهد بود.
The aim of this paper is to describe the developments which have taken place in the power structure and following that we investigate the impact of such developments on the formation of the competition state. Indeed, in a new power structure, states are no longer considered as the main actors and the only source of political authority, but we have witnessed the emergence of non-state actors which have the significant effects on political outcomes and decisions. Thus, the power structure has been shifting away from the state-oriented approach to power privatization. Moreover, the emergence of the concept of competitiveness is another aspect of the transformation of the power structure. In fact, the competitiveness has been considered as a fundamental target for all states. Hence, the distribution or privatization of power and highlighting the competitiveness in a world politics can affect privatization, marketization and competitiveness of states. Therefore, we have witnessed the formation of a novel state which is known as the competition state. Actually, the competition state is a kind of state which pursues the policies such as privatization, deregulation, encouraging of the innovation and setting up of the companies for Maximization of profits. At the end of the day, we can contend that as a result of pluralization of power in a global system, states are also required to be pluralist.

Q: Pulling a Substring which does not exist in the same position I am looking to pull a substring from a Oracle database column using PL/SQL.
The column has a large string value which varies in size for different rows. Hence the substring I am referring to will not be in the same position for each row. But the substring is uniquely identifiable. It will be like ",RID!1455,". i.e. It will be preceded by a comma, have RID, followed by a !, followed by a number and then a comma.
I am interested in pulling this number followed by RID. Can you please help me with this. Thank you very much in advance

A: Consider below query:
Suppose table text1 has column text with string:
dfgggsdRID!3242dfgdfdg
Then below query will give you result '3242':
select substr(text, (select (INSTR(text, 'RID!', 1)+4) FROM text1),4) from text1;

A one day course making wet felted soft toys and puppets in the Forest of Dean.
We had a very fun day creating some new friends with Chris. Chris was very friendly and really good at helping us convert our ideas into felted reality! The setting is also lovely and lunch and snacks very tasty.
Thank you for your kind review. I hope Nutty ,Darius and Ellie are keeping well, and look forward to hearing from Frances about their exploits!
A fabulous, fun, inspiring and creative day! Although 'crafty' I had never done felting before and so everything was new. Chris was wonderfully patient and inspiring and I came home with two pieces of work that I continue to enjoy. I will definitely be back for more!
I couldn't believe I could achieve something I was so pleased with in just one day. I've never felted before!
Great Fun! Was really pleased with what I produced.

Infantini: Indian River Lagoon Is Not A Right Or Left Issue
BREVARD COUNTY, Florida - Brevard County Commissioner Trudie Infantini has placed on the agenda for Tuesday's Brevard County Commission meeting an item requesting that Florida Governor Rick Scott declare a State of Emergency following a massive fish kill in the Indian River Lagoon where tens of thousands of fish, crabs, and other marine life have died in less than a week.
Commissioner Infantini is also requesting that the Brevard County Board of County Commissioners identify the Indian River Lagoon as the County's number one priority.
Infantini's proposals drew criticism from conservative radio talk show host Bill Mick during his show on Monday.
"You've gotta think that this march to the left and becoming a tool of the environmental nut jobs is all to do about Trudie's campaign and trying to draw people to vote for her for Clerk of Courts," said Mick. The radio host accused Infantini of "pandering to the left" and suggested that she leave her grandchildren on University Boulevard [in Melbourne] at 1 a.m. if the Indian River Lagoon is really the County's number 1 priority.
Citing a FLORIDA TODAY article, Mick said that Palm Bay Mayor William Capote - a Democrat who supports Hillary Clinton - was "seemingly the only voice of reason on this issue" at a Space Coast Tourism Development Council meeting because Capote warned other TDC members not to use such harsh language as "State of Emergency" because the bad publicity may have a negative affect on Brevard County's tourism.
"It's not a left issue or right issue. We're looking at an economic, environment, and public safety [issue]," Infantini said. "Those three things are not pandering."
Infantini noted that if Governor Scott declared a State of Emergency, that would free up state funding and local permitting to hasten improvements to the Indian River Lagoon.
The meeting is scheduled to start at 9 a.m. on Tuesday, March 29, 2016, at the Government Center in Viera, Florida.


2. Fender Bass Jazz project almost done!
+Kadhir Alvarado Yes, imagine only passive. But passive and battery removed works ok?
Not for active. Passive yes. Active needs battery power.
I said tone selection on the tone knobs.
Highly recommend this bass! It's the best of both world of a precision and jazz setup. You can play any style with this bass.
Fender Bass Jazz project almost done!
Nice review and good job playing the same thing so we could actually hear the exact differences in tonality at different settings!! Your bass sounds very nice. The only thing that has kept me away from 5 string Fenders is that i haven't played one where i didn't think the B string felt to wooly and not taught enough. I can hear that with your bass on your demo as well. Everything else sounds awesome!
Killer tone and playing! I think the older, '95-'08 American Deluxes are far and away better than the new, post-2010 lineup, which IMO takes a step back from being "Modern" Jazz & Precision Basses (the P/DC models that had the Dual Coil humbucker to fill in the P-Bass tone with J-Bass mids) to a somewhat odd mixture of old & new school.
Don't like the slap tone. Fender obviously used a 60s style pickup routing. I prefer the 70s routing where the treble PUP is a 1/2" closer to the bridge. The 70s routing has a funkier tone with more cut. The Marcus Miller signature bass is a perfect example of that sound.
finally someone understands that a bass review is not talking what bass you had before and where you play it and what your grandma sent you last Christmas, good job THANKS!
Very good review! Thanks for letting get a taste of that bass before I purchase. You've got some serious talent also.
have you tried the Squier Vintage Modified Jazz Bass (Natural 5-String)? if you have how much of a difference is it?
that great is your bass As is the price of that bass guitar $ $ $ $ $ $???
Finally someone uses the B string on a five string bass review!
And that folks, is how a bass/sound demo is done. Nice job.
como cuanto valdrá un bajo de estos???
As is the bass price of this model?
What amp are you using? Great demo!!!!
+Amr Hammam Yeah, you lose ALL output when the battery is dead/not there. I tried it out on my high gain channel - it sounded like a light crunch. Defs need the battery.I'd probably check out the 57/66 set in person if you can, YouTube and music reveiwers tend to make pickups sound way too similar in demos usually.
+flagmuffin1221 I'll check them out, thanks! This sounds pretty cool.I have to switch my battery every month or so. Of course it plays even if I don't switch the battery, but the sound is just weak and...meehhh.
+Amr Hammam I've literally swapped my battery like...3 times in the 3 years of owning my active guitar? Not that unreliable. Also, you don't exactly buy actives to mess with blues or jazz. Clean jazz and blues, it's actually pretty good. They're not worse than passives, they just have a different clean sound, brighter sort of. The EMG 57/66 set is apparently the bridge between passive and active, and I'm actually looking at getting some soon. You should check them out as well.
Give it a couple of months. I used to worship active pickups and I would've done anything to get some active pickups. Got my first active pups (EMGs 81 and 85) and I couldn't contain myself from the excitement. After a few months, I was so over them. I absolutely hate them. First of all, they're completely unreliable because, well, they run on batteries. You have no idea how many times I would be playing and I find the sound gradually dying because of the battery. But that's just a battery, no big deal, right? Just swap it out for a new one. Well it gets annoying after the first three times.Also, the versatility. God, how limited they are. Active pups are metal machines. As long as you're playing some heavy stuff, they're great. But when you try to experiment with the "softer" stuff, they're a nightmare.
Jaguar Bass, MIJ, demoing sounds in passive (first) and active (second) mode. Played through a guitar amp since I have no bass amp, miked with a Shure 57.

The home as a site of state intervention
In the social field, state representatives have carried out home visits for over one hundred years. To date, we know little about how such home visits are organized, how they are carried out and to which degree they disturb the privacy and integrity of the families and individuals concerned.
Social work home visits are state interventions into the privacy of the affected persons and therefore have major implications with regard to fundamental rights. The underlying dilemma of welfare and of coercion persists to date. Our project focuses on the current and former practice of home visits at the intersection of Vormundschaftsbehörden/KESB (guardianship authorities / Swiss Child and Adult Protection Agency) and Fürsorge/Sozialdienste (welfare / social services). Based on case records (personal files), we will reconstruct how home visits were/are used in the German-speaking part of Switzerland from 1960 to 1980 and from 2000 to today. In addition to the analysis of the case records, we will conduct interviews with the affected persons as well as with professionals and to the degree possible, observe home visits.
To date, home visits have not been a research subject in their own right in Switzerland, neither from a current nor a historical perspective. Furthermore, internationally, home visits have scarcely been investigated. We will reconstruct home visits by social workers in two time periods: from 1960 to 1980 and from 2000 until today. The first period, among others, spans the social upheavals in the wake of '1968' as well as an increasing professionalization of social casework during the second period that saw the introduction of the new Child and Adult Protection Law (KESR) and the creation of a new authority, the Child and Adult Protection Agency (KESB).
Our research wishes to analyze changes to home visit practice and their impact on the persons concerned between 1960 and today, with specific focus on the impact of these visits on the course of cases, on case construction processes, and on gender-specific aspects in relation to housing.
Thanks to close cooperation with practical organizations, the research results will serve to sensitize professionals who carry out home visits towards fundamental rights and historical developments.
