The Arsenal Belgium flag at Wembley is our Lucky charm

Community Shield : Arsenal - Chelsea : 1 - 0 To The Arsenal!!!
Wenger vs. Mourinho, Baker's Dozen Failure, A Tale of Two Managers
I have had the luck of being at Wembley when we played there two seasons ago in the semi final against Wigan. I always say that is there where the first signs became visible of our new team. A new team that would go all the way. Only 2 years later we have been to Wembley 6 times and we won all those matches.
Not that it has been easy at times. We sometimes had to dig deep. Very deep. To overcome opponents but also to overcome terrible referees. The FA cup win over Hull being the best example. I will never forget how Probert denied us almost a handful penalties and make it a very difficult match to win. But we also made life difficult for ourselves at times. Certainly in semi finals we seem to have that habbit. But as a result we have now won the last 4 finals we played at Wembley.
A 3-2 win against Hull. A 3-0 win against Manchester City a few months later. A few months ago a great 4-0 against Aston Villa. And now the icing of the cake a 1-0 win against Chelsea.
Don't believe one word that for Chelsea it was just a pre-season match. No way, José. The way Ramires was send out to kick each and every valuable Arsenal player like Özil and Cazorla in the opening half hour showed his intentions. No prisoners would be made, only "dead" players from Arsenal was the target. It didn't work out that way. Well at least I hope as some of our players really had a few dangerous kicks on their ankles and foot. And Taylor was his usual useless himself by not acting. Or pretending not to see it. I have said it umpteen times : a ref should be very alert for players stepping (late) on other players feet. It is very dangerous and can cause serious injuries.
But I couldn't make it to Wembley this time. But we had sent out a little delegation from Arsenal Belgium for this match. 8 of our members had the day of their Arsenal supporting career. That is what I can make of their early pictures they published on the internet before the match and from within Wembley.
But they had something special with them. As we wanted to make our official supporters club more visible to the outside world we have ordered a few flags from our supporters club. It has on it the official logo that we got from Arsenal and below we put Victoria Concordia Crescit.
The flag underway to Wembley in the shuttle to Folkestone
And that flag was for the first time at an Arsenal match today. And it was the first time Wenger beat Mourinho in a match. One can say that it was The Ox who won the match, I say it was our flag that brought good luck to the boys. Of course it is in a way meaningless and it will not influence the result at all but it sure didn't bring any bad luck to Arsenal to have our official flag in the stadium.
What I did see however was a few outstanding performances. Even though the sun makes it hard to sometimes see the match in good conditions as sometimes I couldn't see the difference between Arsenal players and Chelsea players on my screen because of the reflection of the sun and the ball going in and out of the shade in to the sun. But I did see a few players making great contributions.
Let me start with our match winner: The Ox. I have always admired him and thought he was a very promising player. But his goal contribution was below par. It was the difference between being a good prospect and really becoming a top player. And lo and behold that was excactly what he was thinking himself. And that is what seems to have changed from this season on.
It was a wonderfully taken goal. A little dummy from right to left, going on to his left foot and then BANG a thunder shot that left Courtois diving in the emtpy. The ball had already touched the net when Courtois was in the air. A wonderful goal. A great goal worthy to win any match. This week I had a discussion with my friends from Arsenal Belgium. Would you play Ramsey or The Ox. I opted for Ramsey as he scores more and gives more assists.
But I urged The Ox to prove me wrong this season. And I think he has read my thoughts on him. Keep on doing the way you are doing Alex, keep it up. Have your first wonderful year just as Aaron did two seasons ago.
And another stand out performer was at the back for me Laurent Koscielny. He was always present when Chelsea had a chance and was the defender that tried to get in the way. The chance for Hazard was a great example. His late tackle just did enough to make Hazard doubt for a split second and he fired over the goal. Cech making himself as big as possible and spreading his body will have done the rest. Koscielny almost got injured as Hazard then stepped on his leg when he came down on the ground but luckily he could continue.
Who remembers the times when Koscielny came to us and the moaners moaned and moaned and moaned. A player with only 1 year in the top flight in France. Pfew Wenger being stingy again. But as Wenger said it was his best value for money over the last years. He once again was impressive in this match I found.
But he was not the only one. All the players did their duty for as long as they were on the pitch. Working hard and not forgetting their defensive duties. The only regret I have is that we could and should have scored another goal in the second half. That would have killed the match off completely. But then again winning a final is about having scored most at the end. And that is what we did.
A very enjoyable and mature performance. We had the best and most clear cut chances in this match. If our players can keep their focus on that level for the next 38 PL matches things look good. Keep it up Gunners! But never forget that it will take each match to work hard and never think things will come from itself. I hope that the old heads will keep this in the mind of the younger players.
Oh and we will bring our flag with us from now each time. So if you see the flag in the Emirates in the future, I and my friends will be around. Hope to see you then.

Great match review Walter.
Ox definitely has the potential to become a big game player. And he is only 21!
Maybe the Arsenal Belgium flag has something to do with lifting the players mood. Yes I believe in that.
We could have gone 2-1 down had Ramires header and Hazard found the net. But we also could have won 4-2 if Ollie, Santi and Gibbs took their chances.
However it was a 50-50 game, and we somehow have found the brakes to our gameplay, making it seem like the Arsenal that plays well defensively and offensively.
We have lost out the past few seasons due to the weakness in defense and attacking positions, and the eagerness to leave the back open to just the defenders, without the DM.
For 2015 it was a different case. We were playing a more level headed form of football, but yesterday we were guilty of letting balls move around us. Maybe we know that we have a good keeper to save us if we do not work as hard defensively?
Yesterday Mourningho (yes pin intended) has said that we were a defensive team. Come on. Didn't they do the same against us last season? Yesterday they were trying to score goals, that's why they didn't have the time to put up a solid bus in front of their goal.
A lot of brouhaha is going on about who shook hands with whom after the game….or who didn't.
It's about time all this silly shaking of hands before matches, was abandoned. It has become a meaningless exercise by the players and in most cases merely a prelude to mayhem on the field. Get rid. 😉
Andy Mack says:
Last season the Chavs 'parked the bus' from the 1st whistle.
At the CS game we became more defensive after scoring.
Not the same thing and MaureenO knows that, but the problem is that most of the 'Hacks' (I can't bring myself to call them journalists) are pretty stupid and don't understand the difference. The few that do appreciate it are more interested in making headlines, hence the hand shaking issue being bigger than the game its self…..
@AndyMack,
You just said that word.
And yes. Last season they played "park the bus" from the start. Counter attacking. Yesterday their defense showed some kind of holes in them and we got our chances.
In his after match interview the 'loser one' aka 'special one' said that the best team lost and the team with the best defense (Arsenal) won.
That can't be right for we all know Arsene doesn't do defense!
Seems to me 'the loser one' doesn't know much about football if he thinks Arsene does defense. 🙂
LOL Colario, surely all those moaners who said Arsène doesn't do defence can't be wrong. What on earth is going on as the one who they said was much, much better than Wenger in tactics, defence, winning trophies (after spending lots of money) is now suddenly saying that Wenger does do tactics and shiver…even some defending….

Nice to see the Belgian supporters' banner and glad that it was there.
Best ever Match of the Day last night. They even noticed Koscielny's great performance, Walter. All the pundits were positive about Arsenal and Manish was a great improvement on Gary Lineker. Of course it helped to have Martin Keown there.
Great start to the season!
Just read Menace on another article. You're right, Menace, the commentators did ignore Ramires's fouls on Match of the Day. But at least we could see them. I felt a couple of times it was obvious from the choice of footage that the ref wasn't doing his job. Maybe I'm being too optimistic! We'll see what happens during the season.
"The way Ramires was send out to kick each and every valuable Arsenal player like Özil and Cazorla in the opening half hour showed his intentions. "
My my, i was screaming at the ref to do his job. BUT our players responded and showed Chel$ that if they were going to start playing like that, then we would respond, and maybe they would end up being more injured.
This is a warning to all so call "rugby" tactic teams, BEWARE, if you start something Arsenal will finish it.
So, my little groan:
Please please, Arsenal, when we are defending deep, if you are going to boot the ball up field, please boot it out the sidelines, this will use up minutes of the game AND give us time to regroup. So many times i saw us boot it straight up the middle, and of course a Chel$ player then gets the ball and can start off an attack again.
I hope this makes sense and not just to me?
Great write up Walter, I assume the Belgian supporters had a great day!
You are right to draw attention to the incompetence of Taylor, who not for the first time put the safety of our players at risk.
I am always slightly surprised when players like Ramires and Ivanovic manage to finish a match without being sent off – but seeing the incompetence of the PGMO and the protection they receive from the media, I should no longer be surprised.
But, it was a great win yesterday, the Odious One is really sore judging by his post match behavior and ill conceived comments – I think that adds a little more to the enjoyment of the occasion!
@bjtgooner,
Yes, my ancient heart skipped a beat when I heard the name of the referee. But then I realised we were playing Chelsea and not Aston Villa and Taylor wouldn't influence the result overmuch. 😉
@nicky
What I think we showed last season and also yesterday was that we are good enough to win on most occasions despite the bias of the PGMO.
The team has shown a maturity and realization of the ref bias and instead of letting the unfairness of the situation upset their play, they have just knuckled down and got on with the game, and outplayed the opposition.
As others have pointed out, the team has been very careful to tackle fairly and not give the PGMO twits too many chances to book them – yesterday Taylor had to resort to booking Coquelin for a phantom foul allied to a Hazard dive.
What concerns me is that those who have had it in for Arsenal over the last number of years, the paymasters and also the media, may well redouble their efforts – hence the delay in introducing technology to ensure correct on field decisions – but, against that, the widespread exposure on television for almost every match means that ref errors/bias, while protected by the main media channels, will be questioned by an ever increasing and ever more vociferous clamor.

I had time to watch a couple of hours of Sky Sports this morning, something which I normally cannot do on a Monday morning.
A number of points noticed: –
1. During the time I watched Sky showed yesterday's Bentake goal three times, but failed to show Chamberlain's goal.
2. The Sky report on the Community Shield concentrated on the lack of handshake, trying to imply AW was at fault, and also the Odious One's allegations about Arsenal being defensive. Was there a game of football involved somewhere?
3. The absence of Costa was a repeated Chelski excuse – but no mention of the absence of a certain Sanchez!
Fair reporting?
The true meaning of class .
A man goes to the famous Lucas Carton restaurant in Paris with his girlfriend and orders the 1928 Mouton.
The waiter returns with a bottle full of wine, pours a small amount in the glass for tasting.
The customer picks up the glass, smells the wine, and puts it down on the table with a thud.
"This is not the 1928 Mouton."
The waiter assures him it is, and soon there are another twenty people surrounding the table, including the chef and the manager trying to convince the man that the wine is the 1928 Mouton. Finally someone asks him how he knows that it is not the 1928 Mouton.
"My name is Phillipe de Rothschild, and I make the wine."
Finally, the original waiter steps forward and admits that he poured the Clerc Milon 1928.
"I could not bear to part with our last bottle of 1928 Mouton. You know Clerc Milon, it is in the same village as Mouton, you pick the grapes at the same time, the same cepage, you crush in the same way, you put them into similar barrels. You bottle at the same time, you even use eggs from the same chickens to fine them. The wines are the same, except for a small matter of geographic location."
Rothschild beckons the waiter forward, and whispers to him,
"When you return home tonight, ask your girlfriend to remove her underwear. Put one finger in one opening, another finger in the other, then smell both the fingers. You will understand what difference a small distance in geographic location makes."
Mourinho has been particularly obnoxious in his behaviour towards our manager.
Mr. Wenger is correct not to shake his hand. In his position, I would have done the same.
Re all the media nonsense about sporting behaviour making handshakes compulsory, it may be pointed out that a hypocritical handshake with the Odious One would devalue the genuine handshakes with other opponents.
Brickfields, thats bad—some of my lunch is all over the computer screen again!
bjtgooner, The CS was a BT Sport game, so Sky probably won't pay for the rights to show the Ox goal.
Here's a question for everyone;
Would you prefer the 'pundit' commentator to be a former spuddie player
or a 'I'm from up north were real football means kicking players' type
or someone who's both, like Danny "I played for Liverpoo" Murphy?
@ Kenneth – my work be done !
Somebody mentioned on the the other post ( Menace? ) that MOTD did not condemn any of the bad tackles. Was it ever any different? This would be a marvellous platform to bring dirty play & lax refereeing to the public's attention, but they duck the issue for some reason. Perhaps it's written into the contract not to be controversial, but you'd expect more from a national broadcaster.
@ Andy Mack – None of the above. My overall joy in watching Arsenal has improved tremendously ever since I started muting the volume. Found no need to shout at , not have the urge to destroy the TV.'
@Andy Mack
Sky did not carry the Dippers match live – but repeatedly showed the Benteke goal this morning.
BT use the Sky satellite as the vehicle for their sports channels – so I would assume there is an arrangement for Sky to show moments of interest on their main sports news channel – should they want to do so. If there is some sort of exclusion agreement in place then I will happily stand corrected.
apo Armani says:
@bjtgooner
BBC has been much the same…the super goal of Benteke against…well…I can't even remember!!
On the Community Shield much the same as you describe for Sky; and not a word about our absent Sanchez 🙂
Thing is – this lot of Media outlets are PREDICTABLE at best!!!
I wouldn't – nor would any one else with any self respect shake the hand of another who is continuously disrespectful – that is the point the Media should be making!!! RESPECT!
andy bishop says:
It would be really refreshing if the pundits had said Ramires and Ivanaovic are doing as instructed when Ramires went over the top to Cazorla and the first contact with Ozil was his knee in the hows yer fathers and of course the disgraceful Ivanovic scrape down Cazorlas achilles. This is the slant we want from ex pros not the sanitised version.
@Walter,
Good write up and congratulations on the Arsenal Belgium banner, look forward to seeing it at games throughout the season!
In regards to the Wenger/Mourinho non-handshake, why should they be forced to do a handshake when they clearly do not like each other? Considering the statements made by Mourinho in the past in regards to Wenger, I actually think Wenger showed class and restraint by only walking away.
In the video, Mourinho gave all the Arsenal players handshakes, but decides to hug the back of the last player before Wenger (which I believe was Ox) and was essentially turning his back to Wenger, before Wenger walked away and Mourinho continued his 360 spin
The media constantly goad managers into making comments about each other.
They obviously do this in the hope of enticing one or the other, or both, to say something controversial. That's what they want. And if they don't get it they resort to twisting what they do say (especially when it's Wenger) into something that fits there agenda.
The usual theme is that Mourinho's played some brilliant mind game and Wengers bitten. Bo!!ocks I know, but that's the line they want it to follow, so that's the line they take.
Surely this is the saddest, most childish kind of Journalism (I use that description in the loosest possible way) there is.
Basically it's sh!t stirring, no more no less.
Then when there targets get caught up in the shenanigans, they go all 'holier than thou' on us, proclaiming the protagonists should 'grow up' !
Typical media hypocrisy of the highest order.
These journalist really are low lifes.
bjtgooner. I've no idea if there's an inclusion or exclusion agreement.
I was just making an observation that could be the reason.
Leopoldo Bleck says:
The surfer though has since been banned by Wembley simply because it contains the name of the opposition, despite the name only being used because Villa happen to be playing them in the final and it's a necessary part of the design. The flag is a direct appropriation of the infamous Sex Pistols album and reads 'Never mind the Arsenal here's the Aston Villa'.

How do I archive all the SCAP result coming from my infrastructure? For how long? What kind of SCAP result post-processing would help me retain control over environment? How do I ensure that all the nodes in given perimeter has been audited by given policy in last week? What are the good practices for operating SCAP audit of multiple nodes? It is a a heck of a lot of XML files and there has to be a better way!
These are common question amongst operational guys and there needs to be piece of software to help answer them. Let me introduce project SCAPtimony, its motives and mission statements.
SCAPtimony project gives full testimony about compliance of your infrastructure. SCAPtimony is open source compliance center build on top of SCAP, the U.S. Government standard. SCAPtimony is a collection (database) of auditable assets, SCAP policies, audit schedules, SCAP results, and waivers. SCAPtimony is modern, RESTful, highly efficient, robust, and cloud-class scalable solution to the common problem of SCAP document storage. Going forward, SCAPtimony pushes the envolope by leveraging OpenSCAP to empower administrators in a sustainable way! ... Bingo!
Let me know, if your feature is missing. In the meantime, source codes are brewing at https://github.com/OpenSCAP/scaptimony.
And by the way, project SCAPtimony would never be possible if there was no oscap_source redesign in OpenSCAP. That redesign significantly improved post-processing capabilities of OpenSCAP needed especialy for SCAPtimony's waivers.

Q: Google Datastore Emulator using Java (Not using GAE) I am using Google Cloud's Datastore Client Library for Java to access the Cloud Datastore.
Note: I am not using App Engine to deploy my application; just running a local application for development purposes.
Following the example, I can read/write to the Cloud Datastore.
Datastore datastore = DatastoreOptions.defaultInstance().service();
KeyFactory keyFactory = datastore.newKeyFactory().setKind("MyKind");
Key key = keyFactory.newKey();
Entity entity = datastore.get(key);

I want to be able to write to a local Datastore emulator instance instead.
Following the guide here, I run gcloud beta emulators datastore start.
This shows up in my terminal:
C:\Users\User>gcloud beta emulators datastore start

[datastore]

I open another terminal and set the environment variables:
C:\Users\User>gcloud beta emulators datastore env-init > set_vars.cmd && set_vars.cmd
C:\Users\User>set DATASTORE_DATASET=my-project-id
C:\Users\User>set DATASTORE_EMULATOR_HOST=localhost:8964

C:\Users\User>set DATASTORE_HOST=http://localhost:8964
C:\Users\User>set DATASTORE_PROJECT_ID=my-project-id

I run my application and make a REST call to post or retrieve an Entity, but this only reads/writes against the Cloud Datastore. Heading to localhost:8964/datastore gives me Not Found. Although starting the emulator tells me that it created local_db.bin file, the folder supposedly containing it is empty.
I also want to stay away from using LocalDatastoreHelper in order to access the local emulator. Is there any way to achieve using gcloud only ?

A: I assume that you want to test against the Datastore Emulator. In that case it is not necessary to start the Datastore Emulator from the shell. There is a LocalDatastoreHelper in the gcloud library that allows you to create, start, reset and stop a local Datastore Emulator with ease.
I didn't found any documentation on that, so I created this testcases for you:
import com.google.cloud.datastore.Datastore;
import com.google.cloud.datastore.DatastoreOptions;
import com.google.cloud.datastore.Entity;
import com.google.cloud.datastore.KeyFactory;

public class DatastoreEmulatorTest {

    protected static LocalDatastoreHelper localDatastoreHelper;

    protected Datastore datastore;

    protected KeyFactory keyFactory;

    @BeforeClass
    public static void setUpClass() throws InterruptedException, IOException {
        // create and start a local datastore emulator on a random free port
        // this also means that you probably can run tests like this concurrently.
        System.out.println("[Datastore-Emulator] start");
        localDatastoreHelper = LocalDatastoreHelper.create();
        localDatastoreHelper.start();
        System.out.println("[Datastore-Emulator] listening on port: " + localDatastoreHelper.getPort());

        // set the system property to tell the gcloud lib to use the datastore emulator
        System.setProperty("DATASTORE_EMULATOR_HOST","localhost:" + localDatastoreHelper.getPort());
    }

    @Before
    public void setUp() {
        // create the datastore instance
        // because of the system property set it in setUpClass() this

        datastore = DatastoreOptions.getDefaultInstance().getService();
        keyFactory = datastore.newKeyFactory().setKind("TestEntity");
    }

    @After
    public void tearDown() throws IOException {
        System.out.println("[Datastore-Emulator] reset");
        // this resets the datastore after every test
        localDatastoreHelper.reset();
    }

    @AfterClass
    public static void tearDownClass() throws InterruptedException, IOException {
        System.out.println("[Datastore-Emulator] stop");
        // this stops the datastore emulator after all tests are done
        localDatastoreHelper.stop();
    }

    @Test
    public void test1() {
        // stores an entity in the datastore and retrieves it later

        // create an Entity "TestEntity"
        Entity.Builder builder = Entity.newBuilder(keyFactory.newKey(42));
        builder.set("name", "Test1");

        // store it in datastore
        datastore.put(builder.build());

        // retrieve entity by key
        Entity entity = datastore.get(keyFactory.newKey(42));
        assertNotNull(entity);
        assertEquals("Test1", entity.getString("name"));
    }

    @Test
    public void test2() {
        // try to access the entity created in test1, shouldn't work because
        // of calling reset in tearDown() after each test.

        // try to retrieve entity by key
        Entity entity = datastore.get(keyFactory.newKey(42));
        assertNull(entity);
    }
}

The LocalDatastoreHelper creates a Datastore Emulator instance on a free port and doesn't store to disk - when you stop the testcase with the debugger and look for processes, you'll find something like this:

That also means you should also be able to run tests in parallel, too.

A: The line below always connects to the remote datastore. Uses the default options (e.g. project, auth credentials) from gcloud settings.
Datastore datastore = DatastoreOptions.defaultInstance().service();

To connect to the local datastore, try the below:
@Test
public void test1() throws IOException, InterruptedException {
    Datastore ds = DatastoreOptions.builder().host("http://localhost:9999").projectId("my-project").build().service();
    com.google.cloud.datastore.Key key = ds.newKeyFactory().kind("MyEntity").newKey("mykey");
    com.google.cloud.datastore.Entity entity = com.google.cloud.datastore.Entity.builder(key).set("p1", "Hello World!").build();
    entity = ds.put(entity);
    entity = ds.get(key);
    System.out.println(entity);
}

I started my Datastore Emulator on localhost:9999. Set that as the host when building the DatastoreOptions.
I've confirmed that the Emulator console shows requests are received and entities are persisted. I've also checked the data file (local_db.bin) and it shows the data (of course it is not a plain text file).
The one thing I don't know is - if there is a way to manage the local datastore using a browser interface. I could not find much documentation on how to administer the local datastore just like how we do the remote one from Cloud Console. Perhaps someone else can help with this.

Arkadi Jakowlewitsch Tugarinow (, wiss. Transliteration ; *  in Saratow, Russisches Kaiserreich; † 8. Juli 1948 in Leningrad, Sowjetunion), war ein russischer beziehungsweise sowjetischer Ornithologe und Paläornithologe.

Leben
Tugarinow stammt aus einer Beamtenfamilie. Bereits als Schuljunge entwickelte er ein reges Interesse an der Natur. Er legte ein Herbarium an und trat mit siebzehn Jahren in die Gesellschaft der Naturforscher Saratows ein. Dort arbeitete er im örtlichen Museum der Gesellschaft und sammelte erstes ornithologisches Material im Raum Astrachan sowie in der Sarepta (Steppenregion an der Unteren Wolga), das er dem Kasaner Museum übergab. In seiner Jugendzeit hatte er Kontakt zum späteren Akademiemitglied Boris Alexandrowitsch Keller (1874–1945), der sein Lehrer und Mentor wurde. Anschließend studierte er Naturwissenschaften an der Universität Kasan. Von 1900 bis 1903 veröffentlichte er seine ersten Aufsätze über Geobotanik.

1901 nahm er an der Jahresversammlung der allrussischen Vereinigung der Naturforscher zu Sankt Petersburg teil, wo er mit sibirischen Wissenschaftlern aus Krasnojarsk in Kontakt kam. Im Januar 1905 übersiedelte er dorthin und wurde mit 25 Jahren Konservator. Kurze Zeit später übernahm den Direktorenposten des zentralsibirischen Regionalmuseums, den er bis 1926 innehatte. Tugarinow begann sofort mit der Erkundung der Jenissei-Region, deren Fauna und Flora zu diesem Zeitpunkt überwiegend noch völlig unerforscht war. Er trug eine große ornithologische Sammlung zusammen, interessierte sich aber auch für archäologische (Andronowo-Kultur) und ethnografische Studien, hielt Vorlesungen und war während der Russischen Revolution von 1917 bis 1918 örtlicher Wirtschaftskommissar im Norden.

Von 1907 bis 1926 leitete er die Krasnojarsker Abteilung der Geografischen Gesellschaft. In dieser Zeit in Sibirien (und kurz danach) veröffentlichte Tugarinow die Monografien Materialien über die Vögel des Jenisej`schen Gouvernements (1911), in Zusammenarbeit mit Sergei Alexandrowitsch Buturlin, 1925 erschienen in deutscher Übersetzung von Hermann Johannes Grote als Sonderheft der von Otto Kleinschmidt herausgegebenen Zeitschrift Falco, die Ergänzung Zur Ornithofauna des Jenisej´schen Gouvernements (1912) und Die Vögel Sibiriens am Jenisej – Checklist und Verbreitung (1927) sowie die Bücher Der Zobel im Jenisej`schen Gouvernement (1913) und Die geografischen Landschaften der Jenisej-Region (1925). Von 1910 bis 1915 publizierte er in der Reihe Орнитологический Вестник (Ornitologičeskij Vestnik) von Iwan Semjonowitsch Poljakow, darunter 1913 den Artikel Zur Ornithofauna des nordöstlichen Sajan-Gebirges sowie 1915 den Aufsatz Zur Ornithofauna des Minussinsker Kreises und östlichen Urjanchai. 1926 wurde Tugarinow von Pjotr Petrowitsch Suschkin an das Zoologische Institut der Akademie der Wissenschaften nach Leningrad berufen. Im gleichen Jahr sowie 1928 wirkte er an Exkursionen in die Mongolei mit, deren Ergebnisse in drei Arbeiten veröffentlicht wurden.

Von 1934 bis 1937 verbrachte er die Winterhalbjahre zu Forschungszwecken über Wasservögel, Zugverhalten, Rast und Überwinterung im südwestlichen Raum des Kaspischen Meeres und in Transkaukasien. Die Ergebnisse publizierte Tugarinow unter anderen 1935 in Zusammenarbeit mit Jelisaweta Wladimirowna Koslowa. Tugarinow interessierte sich sehr für den Vogelzug und die Beringung, und veröffentlichte in den 1930er Jahren dazu verschiedene Aufsätze. Im Gedenkband an Pjotr Petrowitsch Suschkin fasste er 1950 den aktuellen Kenntnisstand zum Vogelzug für die Region des südwestlichen Kaspischen Meeres und für die gesamte Paläarktis auf über 70 Seiten zusammen.

Ergebnis seines Schaffens während der Evakuierungszeit des Zoologischen Instituts von 1942 bis 1945 in Tadschikistan war die Monographie über die dortige Fasanunterart Phasianus colchicus bianchii in Zusammenarbeit mit Koslowa. Tugarinow führte die Paläornithologie in der Sowjetunion ein, wobei er vor allem Studien in Sibirien, Kasachstan, in der Ukraine sowie auf der Krim betrieb. 1930 veröffentlichte er einen Beitrag über den Asiatischen Strauß in Transbaikalien und 1932 einen umfangreichen Beitrag zur quartären Avifauna Sibiriens. 1933 und 1934 versuchte er die Entstehungsgeschichte der arktischen Fauna in Nordeurasien zu skizzieren, 1933 widmete er sich der Avifauna der Krim während der Würmvereisung, 1935 schrieb er über die Ornithofauna des Pliozäns Sibiriens und 1940 über die gesamte Avifauna des Tertiärs in den Grenzen der UdSSR.

Zu seinen Erstbeschreibungen zählen unter anderen die fossilen Taxa Plioperdix ponticus, Alectoris pliocaena, Dendrochen oligocaena, Agnopterus turgaiensis, Phalacrocorax longipes und Petrosushkinia pliocaenica.

Tugarinow war auch Systematiker, Zoogeograph und Evolutionsforscher. 1925 brachte er eine Abhandlung über die zoogeographischen Teilgebiete Jenissei-Sibiriens heraus. 1929 veröffentlichte er eine bedeutende Schrift über die Blaukehlchen der Ost-Paläarktis, wobei er auf der Grundlage der Untersuchung von über 1000 Bälgen dabei zehn Unterarten anerkannte und drei neu beschrieb (Luscinia svecica kobdensis, Luscinia svecica kaschgariensis, Luscinia svecica przevalskii). 1936 widmete er sich der Fragestellung zur Entstehung von Inselfaunen. Im Jahr 1932 veröffentlichte Tugarinow ein Bestimmungsbuch der Enten, Gänse, Schwäne und Säger im Rahmen einer Serie zur Fauna der Sowjetunion. Zusammen mit Nikolai Nikolajewitsch Smirnow und Alexander Iwanowitsch Iwanow publizierte er 1934 ein Buch über die Vögel und Säugetiere Jakutiens. Im Rahmen der von der Akademie der Wissenschaften der UdSSR herausgegebenen Reihe Fauna der UdSSR veröffentlichte er die Bände Anseriformes (1941) sowie Pelecaniformes, Ciconiformes, Phoenicopteriformes (1946). Er war Coautor des vierbändigen Standardwerkes Vögel der UdSSR (1951, 1953).

1934 promovierte Tugarinow zum Doktor der Biologie und 1935 wurde er zum Professor ernannt. 1940 übernahm er die Nachfolge von Pawel Wladimirowitsch Serebrowskij (1882–1942) als Leiter der Ornithologischen Abteilung des Zoologischen Instituts der Akademie der Wissenschaften.

D.C. Court of Appeals Strikes Down "May Issue" Concealed Carry Law
Ammoland Inc. Posted on July 31, 2017 July 31, 2017 by Dean Weingarten
By Dean Weingarten
Arizona -(Ammoland.com)- A three judge panel on the D.C. Court of Appeals has struck down the District of Columbia "may issue" concealed carry law.
The District of Columbia bans the open carry of firearms. With its law banning the concealed carry of firearms except in exceptionally rare cases, it has effectively banned the carry of weapons outside the home.
The three judge panel of the D.C. Court of Appeals ruled the law to be an unconstitutional infringement on the right to bear arms.
From foxnews.com:
D.C. requires gun owners to have a "good reason" to obtain a concealed carry permit.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit struck down the regulation as too restrictive in a 2-1 decision, The Washington Post reported.
"The good-reason law is necessarily a total ban on most D.C. residents' right to carry a gun in the face of ordinary self-defense needs," Judge Thomas B. Griffith wrote, according to the paper.
"Bans on the ability of most citizens to exercise an enumerated right would have to flunk any judicial test."
From the decision:
Our first question is whether the Amendment's "core" extends to publicly carrying guns for self-defense. The District argues that it does not, citing Heller I's observation that "the need for defense of self, family, and property is most acute" in the home. Id. at 628. But the fact that the need for self-defense is most pressing in the home doesn't mean that self-defense at home is the only right at the Amendment's core. After all, the Amendment's "core lawful purpose" is self-defense, id. at 630, and the need for that might arise beyond as well as within the home. Moreover, the Amendment's text protects the right to "bear"as well as "keep"arms. For both reasons, it's more natural to view the Amendment's core as including a law-abiding citizen's right to carry common firearms for self-defense beyond the home (subject again to relevant "longstanding" regulations like bans on carrying "in sensitive places"). Id. at 626.
This reading finds support in parts of Heller I that speak louder than the Court's aside about where the need for guns is "most acute." That remark appears when Heller I turns to the particular ban on possession at issue there. By then the Court has spent over fifty pages giving independent and seemingly equal treatments to the right to "keep" and to "bear," first defining those "phrases" and then teasing out their implications. See id. at 570-628. In that long preliminary analysis, the Court elaborates that to "bear" means to "'wear, bear, or carry . . . upon the person or in the clothing or in a pocket, for the purpose . . . of being armed and ready for offensive or defensive action in a case of conflict with another person.'" Id. at 584 (quoting Muscarello v. United States, 524 U.S. 125, 143 (1998) (Ginsburg, J., dissenting)). That definition shows that the Amendment's core must span, in the Court's own words, the "right to possess and carry weapons in case of confrontation." Id. at 592 (emphasis added).
From the examples of Peruta in the Ninth Circuit, the Maryland ban on "assault weapons" in the Fourth Circuit, and the 11th Circuit decision to uphold the chilling of Second Amendment rights by doctors as agents of the government, I expect the District of Columbia will ask for an en banc ruling from the entire D.C. appeals court.
It seems that any upholding of Second Amendment rights is appealed en banc, which is to say, to the entire court. An en banc appeal may not be granted in D.C. It requires a majority vote of the D.C. non-senior judges. The D.C. Court refused en banc appeals by the D.C. attorney general for two previous Second Amendment cases in recent years.
If the court refuses to grant the en banc request, or if the case is heard en banc, and if the D.C. circuit upholds the three judge panel, the case will be appealed to the Supreme Court.
Senate Democrats, lead by Harry Reid, used the "nuclear option" to stack the D.C. Court of appeals with President Obama's appointees exactly for such situations as this. The Republicans recently returned the favor by using the "nuclear option" to confirm Supreme Court justice Gorsuch.
The Supreme Court has been reluctant to hear Second Amendment cases. The decision of the three judge panel on the D.C. Court of Appeals has made Wrenn a case that upholds the Second Amendment. Most of the previous cases denied by the Supreme Court upheld infringements on the right to bear arms.

5 thoughts on "D.C. Court of Appeals Strikes Down "May Issue" Concealed Carry Law"
metro says:
My concern is even if this goes to the Supreme Court and SCOTUS knocks down this "may issue" nonsense, all these gun restrictive states like NY, Calif, Maryland, NJ, CT, etc… will just turn around and give the middle finger to SCOTUS and dare any concealed carry holder from another state to cross over into their state to see what happens. How exactly could it be enforced, if there are localities who will have law enforcement protesting against it locking people up anyway?
Following same-sex marriage rulings in the past, there were clerks that resisted the decision who refused to sign marriage licenses. What will stop states and localities from telling law enforcement to ignore pro 2A SCOTUS ruling–especially if their AG's and govs are against the the ruling.
Eric_CA says:
"The court stated, is not whether a few select people could exercise the right but whether it was available to responsible, law-abiding people in ordinary circumstances. Because the court found that D.C.'s 'good' or 'proper' reason requirement was effectively a ban on bearing arms by people entitled to Second Amendment protection, it declared the requirement invalid and barred its enforcement."
Uh! Los Angeles County and other California counties have this sham "may issue" system ever since I purchased my first handgun in the mid 80s.
It's been a lifetime seeing this move through the courts.
Samuel Stephens says:
I live in Sacramento County an the Sheriff here has certain DemocRATic legislators upset because gives out CCWs without begging if you meet his standards, not like some other County Sheriffs do. The Sheriff will pull a CCW just as quick. There are lots of good Sheriffs but there are those who leave a lot to be desired.
Obamanation was and is pathetic, his pick of judges pretty pathetic too.
Jim in Conroe says:
I am not optimistic that the full District Court will uphold the en banc decision, given the stacking of the court with liberal judges by Obama.

I have recently started another blog for work that I am doing as a way of keeping in contact with my students while they are away from University on their teaching placements. I had thought about using blogs for work before and have done some short inputs about using blogs but this year I have had a couple of students who have been very keen so we are all doing it. I have also realised that it is a very good way of keeping all my good ideas, links etc. in one place for my students to be able to share and comment on.
Doing all this and explaining what I see as the benefits of blogging have made me realise just how much I get out of having my own blog and how much I really enjoy all the contact with my 'imaginary friends' as Thimbleanna calls them. I am thrilled that so many people visit me – around 4000 a month now – about half of whom are looking for info on re-enactment or historical subjects and love the fact that I am part of this big network of people all sharing things.
The first two blogs I ever read were Mary Kathryn's needlework blog and Crazy Aunt Purl's knitting and general coping with life blog. These two women have had a big impact on me in so many ways over the last four years which is remarkable as we have never met nor are likely to – though I hope to go and visit their parts of the USA sometime soon.
I have been very impressed by their craft skills, their attitude to coping with life's little (and big!) ups and downs and have loved the way that they have shared so much of their lives and their passion for all the things they do. Other blogs have been added to my favourites along the way – usually as links from people's blogrolls or posts and I have been entertained and awed by so many talented people.
It is very difficult to describe what you get from this to non- bloggers as I know people (and my kids!) often look at me a bit strangely when I try and describe how I feel about being connected, inspired, uplifted, amused and generally made very happy by reading everyone's posts. To me it is like having lots of pen pals – with the added advantages of seeing pictures of so many lovely things all the time Hen House's gorgeous vintage quilts, Do You Mind if I Knit's cute doggies, beach walks and fabulous art, Crazy Mom's lovely quilt work, Don't Look Now's wonderful original designs to name but a tiny few. You are all wonderful imaginary friends and thank you so much for sharing.
As well as all the craft love and the free patterns and the like I also love the 'extras' that blogging brings to my life. One of these has been the chance to read a really good book as I have been participating in Crazy Aunt Purl's latest book club. It has been a very last-minute participate as my copy only arrived on Friday and we are going to post about the book tomorrow so I have spent most of the weekend reading. The book chosen is When We Were Strangers' by Pamela Schoenewaldt based on one of my favourite subjects, that of emigration to the USA – in this case an Italian seamstress in the late 1880s. It is really good, I am intending to finish it tonight and would recommend it to anyone . I will be passing it on to my Mum when I next go to Spain as I am sure she will love it.
It has been a very literary week one way and another – I have not done much in the way of crafting this week, have been very tired so have been going to bed early with lots of good reads , a friend from knitting, Cath, lent me two of the Benni Harper quilt murder mysteries by Earlene Fowler and I have really enjoyed those. I have always loved a good murder mystery, being a lifelong Agatha Christie fan, and have recently read Agatha's biography and autobiography 'Come Tell me Where You Live' which was very interesting. The Benni Harper books are particularly good in terms of the way the characters are written, I really identify with the main character and can't wait to read more of the series.
This week there was of course World Book Day which I have always promoted as part of my job and the new World Book Night where a million books were given away by people who had registered with the scheme. My friend Barbara from knitting who has a wonderful blog about knitting had registered to get copies of Nigel Slater's autobiography Toast so I went along to my friend Lydia's wool shop, Spun, yesterday to collect the book and have a little knit and natter. As soon as I have finished the book club novel and the other couple I have one the go – another Laura Ingalls Wilder biography and a history of the National Trust Ellie gave me for Christmas I will start on that one then pass it on to my sister-in-law Amanda who is a very keen cook.
I love reading and am a huge fan of print books – I have seen and admired other people's Kindle's and i Pads but I think I will be sticking to my old-fashioned books for a long while yet – I love buying books and spend far too much on them (aided by the lovely Amazon wish list!) but just think it would not be the same to have a download rather than a thud on the doormat when another lovely tome is delivered.
Lovely colours and look there is sun - in my dining room, in Yorkshire - hurrah!
What a fun read! Isn't blogging fun? When you move into a real neighborhood, you're pretty much "stuck" with whoever lives there — I look at blogging as being able to choose your neighbors — and we choose ones who share our same interests! I'm so impressed that you can remember the first blogs that you read. I just remember blogs being there all of a sudden — and I loved it. I Love the yarn and the pretty wristwarmers!

The Englewood Housing Authority was formed prior to 1976 for the initial purpose of constructing the Tibbs Senior Citizen Building at 111 West Street, comprised of 152 units; 111 zero bedroom units and 41 one bedroom units. The building opened in 1976 as scheduled and was funded as a public housing unit under the U.S. Department of HUD. As of January 1, 2017 the Tibbs building has been converted into the Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) project. All public housing units have been revised to Project Based Voucher.
A few years later, a need was clearly seen for expanded help for families in the community, and the Housing Authority applied for and received Section 8 certificates. Currently, we have 501 housing choice vouchers throughout the city of Englewood.
In 1981, Westmoor Gardens, a Section 8 New Construction project was built and 64 families were able to move in under subsidy. On or around 1991 we acquired 167-169 Morse Place, a four family house that had been fire damaged and required complete rehabilitation. We then placed four of our Section 8 families in the units.
In 2001 we purchased the John Foti building at 115 Humphrey Street, another building which also houses Section 8 tenants.
In 2014 the Housing Authority entered into contract to administer 108 Project Based Vouchers at the Rock Creek Terrace and Parkview complexes in the City of Englewood.
The Housing Authority has had five Executive Directors: Michael Terrace (from 1976 to 1983), Aaron Knight (from 1983 to 1984) Roselyn J. Anderson (1984 to 2011), Maria Iwano (2012 – 2016) and Domingo Senande (2016 – Present). We serve under a seven member board of directors five of whom are appointed by the city council, one by the mayor, and one by the state Department of Community Affairs. These appointments are usually for a five year staggered term.

Stephanie Bolster est née en 1969 à Vancouver. Elle est poète, éditrice et enseignante québécoise.

Biographie
Née en 1969, à Vancouver en Colombie-Britannique, Stephanie Bolster s'est d'abord fait connaître comme poétesse. Elle a ensuite été connue pour son travail de professeure et d'éditrice.

Elle est détentrice d'un baccalauréat en création littéraire (Fine Arts in Creative Writing) en 1991, et d'une maîtrise en arts (Master of Fine Arts) en 1994 à l'Université de Colombie-Britannique. Lors de ses études, son travail a été reconnu par le Prix Norma Epstein décerné à chaque année au meilleur manuscrit de création littéraire d'une université canadienne.

Bien qu'elle ait accumulé plusieurs poèmes un peu disparates, elle se tente à une écriture un peu plus thématique sur la vie d'Alice Liddell, la petite fille qui a servi d'inspiration à Lewis Carroll dans l'écriture d'Alice au pays des merveilles. C'est intérêt a débouché vers l'écriture de White Stone : The Alice Poems en 1998, traduit en français par Daniel Canty sous le titre Pierre blanche : poèmes d'Alice aux Éditions du Noroît. Ce recueil de poésie s'est mérité le Prix du Gouverneur général du Canada pour le meilleur recueil de poésie.

Elle a contribué dans plusieurs revues littéraires telles que Art et Contemporary Verse 2.

En tant qu'éditrice, elle coédite des ouvrages tels que Penned: Zoo Poems (2009), The Ishtar Gate: Last and Selected Poems (2004) et Best Canadian Poetry (2008).

Elle est présentement professeure en création littéraire à l'Université Concordia (Creative Writing). Ses intérêts de recherche tournent autour de l'Ekphrasis, l'écopoésie, la «Ruin Porn» ou l'esthétique des ruines, les zoos, et plusieurs autres.

                            Animation.css

                            A cross-browser library of CSS animations. Animation.css is a bunch of cool, fun, and
                            cross-browser animations for you to use in your projects. Great for emphasis, home pages,
                            sliders, and general just-add-water-awesomeness.

                                    Example box for animation effect.

                                        This is simple example of Rickshaw charts. You can use animation on any objects:
                                        text, charts, images, tables etc.

                                    Use any animation button to turn on the animation on box example.

Q: Best way to import from HDD to networked drive? How would I transfer all contents out of the HDD onto the networked drive? I don't want to plug the HDD directly into the networked drive.

A: The best way to do this without connecting the storage cell directly to the network is to attach an ME IO Port, which will transfer any items on storage cells inserted into it directly into the ME network, and then spit out the empty storage cell.

A: Putting it in the ME IO Port will empty it out and sort it (If you formatted you Storage Drives.) If your storage system runs out of space the drive will wait for more space. Then the drive will appear on the other side of the ME IO available for you to take out when needed.

Brokerage sales drop in May
The volume of brokerage sales of smaller boats declined markedly in May, which reduced total sales for the month by 273 boats.
John Burnham, YachtWorld.com
The volume of brokerage sales of smaller boats declined markedly in May, which reduced total sales for the month by 273 boats, or 8 percent, compared with the same month a year earlier.
According to YachtWorld member brokerages reporting in SoldBoats, their proprietary database, 3,324 boats changed hands for a total price of $407.8 million.
Although overall volume was lower, the aggregate price paid during the month was $7.1 million higher than in May 2015 because of gains in midsize sales, especially of boats from 46 to 55 feet. In that market segment volume increased from 173 boats to 210, a 21 percent lift, and the total value of sales climbed from $47.3 million to $68.5 million.
The number sold in the segment of boats under 26 feet was down 20 percent from the previous May, sliding from 1,174 to 944. Sales in the 26- to 35-foot category were also lower — down 101 boats or 7 percent, with 1,327 changing hands. Despite the sales declines, the average price paid in both categories increased, from $24,000 to $26,000 among the smaller boats and from $59,700 to $63,600 for the larger boats.
Sales were higher among boats from 36 to 45 feet — up 25, or 3 percent — as 748 were sold. Average prices rose in this segment, too, climbing from $134,100 to $140,600.
Sales of yachts larger than 56 feet were down slightly during the month from 99 to 95. Prices for the 82 boats that were sold in the 56- to 79-foot range fell from an average of $778,400 to $676,600. On the other hand, among larger, superyacht-size vessels, average prices increased 9 percent from $4.9 million to $5.4 million.
Overall, powerboat sales declined the most in May — 8 percent — falling from 3,039 to 2,790. Sailboat sales decreased from 558 to 534, a 4 percent slip.
Through the first five months of the year, sales volume was 1 percent lower than in 2015. A total of 11,821 boats were sold, and the total value of those that sold was 3 percent lower, at $1.57 billion.
John Burnham is the managing editor of Dominion Marine Media.
A more detailed report summarizing recent U.S. brokerage sales will appear in the July issue of Soundings Trade Only.

This document does not apply to "old" versions of MadWifi (Prior to November 2005).
NOTE: because a station VAP is created by default, wlanconfig will fail to create an AP VAP (for MadWifi releases >1407) unless the parameter 'autocreate=none' is passed when loading the ath_pci module. See UserDocs/autocreate for details.
The only difference is the lack of '0' in the second command. The kernel will give the interface the lowest free integer as its suffix. More information and examples can be found in man wlanconfig 8, and UserDocs/MonitorMode.

The Orchard has announced their acquisition of "Ghost Team," a supernatural comedy directed by Oliver Irving and starring Jon Heder, David Krumholtz, Melonie Diaz, Paul W. Downs, Justin Long and Amy Sedaris.
"Ghost Team" tells the story of a dysfunctional team of ghost hunters, led by paranormal-obsessed Louis (Heder), who get in over their heads when they embark on a investigation into the beyond at an abandoned farm.
"When you pair a script this hilarious with a cast this funny, and bring talent like Oliver Irving to the table, it's really a no-brainer for us," said Paul Davidson, The Orchard's SVP of Film and TV. "We're thrilled to be involved with 'Ghost Team' at this early stage and bring it to audiences next year."
"Ghost Team" is set to be released at the end of 2016, adding to The Orchard's slate of recently acquired films "Demon" and "Southbound." The Orchard previously released "Nasty Baby," "The Overnight," "Digging for Fire" and "Cartel Land" this year.

Things that sound delightful on a blustery winter day: 1) Snuggling up with a blanket, Earl Gray tea in hand and mindlessly scrolling through Pinterest.
Things that do not sound delightful on said blustery winter day: 1)Putting on fifty layers of clothing so that my physique resembles the likeness of the Michelin man. 2)Trudging out through the snow to de-ice my car and driving through a blizzard to get out to the barn. 3)Trudging through the snow, again, except this time to fetch my mare, who probably doesn't really even want to see me anyways. 4)Bringing the grouchy mare into the frosty barn to tack up. 5)Riding and sweating, while simultaneously freezing.
How's that for an inspirational speech? That snuggly blanket and Earl Gray tea is starting to sound pretty good right about now, isn't it? Yes, I know, we didn't decide to partake in this sport for the glamour or the comfortable lifestyle that it, eh, absolutely does not afford, but we chose it nonetheless. And most of the time, I willingly accept it all.
However, when the thermometer starts displaying single digits, sometimes the romance and the joys of horse ownership become a little less apparent. I would be kidding myself if I said that working up the motivation to go to the barn isn't just plain hard. Add in that it might be too cold to even have a productive ride and its lost almost all of its appeal.
After a recent ride on my mare in the winter wonderland that is currently being referred to as "the Polar Vortex," I was reminded of the reasons why my feet still carry me out to the barn, despite my winter survival instincts.
One of the perks of nasty weather is that my barn becomes noticeably quieter, and dare I say, peaceful? With many people unwilling to brave the cold, the only sounds are of horses quietly munching on hay or shifting in their stalls. There is also virtually no traffic in the arena. Hello unrestricted lateral movements, serpentines and changes of direction across the entire diagonal!
With no competitions in the immediate future, riding in the winter provides a chance for my horse and I to exhale. If my mare feels like she isn't in a great emotional place to work, I can abort my mission and instead take a day to let her stretch on the lunge line- without feeling like I'm losing ground. Best of all, my horse tends to have her biggest, flashiest trot when she's on edge from the nippy air.
In short, ride on winter weather warriors. Ride on.
