UPDATED: 4-year-old Dies after Mother Fails to Yield at Stop Sign Causing Crash
Posted: Aug 2, 2016 10:48 AM CST | Updated: Aug 2, 2016 7:39 PM CST
UPDATE: CBS 58 obtained the 911 call for the crash. The caller made the call around 5:45 p.m.
Operator: 911. What's the address of your emergency?
Caller: I'm on the corner of Bridge and Granville in the town of Cedarburg. Very serious motor vehicle accident. Personal injury. We need someone here now.
Operator: Okay, can you tell how many people are injured?
Caller: How many people are hurt? How many people? Sir, how -- how many people. I -- he's not telling me.
Operator: the fire department's on the way, ma'am
Caller: we've got a 4-year-old in the car that's not conscious.
The Ozaukee County sheriff's Office says alcohol and drugs were not a factor, but they don't know any factors that led up to the crash.
"At this point we don't know what caused the crash. We don't know what other factors were involved," said Lt. Wayne Lambrecht, Ozaukee County Sheriff's Office.
The neighbor who called 911 says it can be hard to see the stop sign if the sun is a driver's eyes.
"Our recommendation is that people just be aware and drive safe," said Lt. Lambrecht.
Other neighbors near the crash told CBS 58 they're worried about the speed of the two roads at the intersection, and say they don't go on walks with their kids, and often hear honking horns and screeching tires.
"It is a 4 year old child, and it is something no one ever wants to go through, and it's definitely a difficult time for the family," said Lt. Lambrecht.
The sheriff's office says they have never worried about the intersection, but will now take a closer look after this tragic loss.
"That intersection does not has not historically been a problem for us. We will as we do in all crashes look at the intersection to determine if there's anything wrong with the intersection," said Lt. Lambrecht.
UPDATE: The 4-year-old who died after a crash in the Town of Cedarburg is Kristin Stewart's daughter, according to Ozaukee County Sheriff's Office.
Kristin Stewart was driving a Ford Focus and didn't yield at a stop sign.
According to the Sheriff's report, the car was westbound on Bridge Road when it collided with a southbound dump truck at the intersection of Granville Road. The accident occurred around 5:45 PM. Stewart was taken to a local hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
ORIGINAL: A 4-year-old Jackson girl has died from the injuries she suffered in a two vehicle collision in the Town of Cedarburg late Monday afternoon.
According to the Ozaukee County Sheriff's Office, the girl was a passenger in a Ford Focus driven by 35-year-old Kristin Stewart of Jackson.
The truck driver, 57-year-old Richard Kreuser of Slinger, was not injured.
The Sheriff's Office investigation found that the Ford failed to yield at a stop sign on Bridge Road before being struck by the dump truck. Alcohol and drugs are not considered factors in the accident. The crash remains under investigation.


Melrose is a picturesque small town at the base of Mount Remarkable in the Flinders Ranges, 270 kms north of Adelaide. It is the oldest town in the flinders ranges, established in 1853.
Nestled at the base of Mount Remarkable (955m high), it offers the visitor wonder experiences with walking trails, scenic beauty and prolific birdlife. Huge gum trees, hundreds of years old dot the landscape. There is a choice of good food cafes and hotels and a range of accommodation.
Heritage buildings in town add to its character and are a window to the past. Explorer Edward John Eyre named Mount Remarkable in 1840. Pasturalists soon followed. Conflict with the local Aboriginal people led to a police post being established in 1848, with acorporal, two troopers and an Aboriginal constable.
As pastoralists, miners and workers moved into the area, Melrose was the only town for more than twently years. Melrose Heritage Museum gives a good insight into the past.
The Goyder line passes just north of town (there is a monument to Goyder). the imaginary line that seaparates the country to the north where the country is unreliable for farming.
MOUNT REMARKABLEWalking trails from Melrose lead int Mount Remarkable National Park. Dramatic gorges, scenic walking trails and plentiful wildlife make it popular for bushwaking. Mount Remarkable Summit (960m high has impressive views of Willochra Plain and Spencer Gulf. Explore the Park's habitats – red quartz gorges, watercourses, lined with river red gums to grassy woodlands and high ridges.

Surprisingly stable long-distance relationships
Contrary to what was thought, sequences of DNA called enhancers – which control a gene's output – find their targets long before they are activated during embryonic development, scientists at EMBL Heidelberg have found.

As well as these surprisingly stable long-distance relationships, the study, published in Nature, also reveals that the degree of complexity of enhancers' interactions in the 'simple' fruit fly Drosophila is comparable to what is seen in vertebrates.
"As an embryodevelops, there are huge changes in transcription, much of which drives developmental progression: genes are changing from on to off, and off to on – but the contacts between enhancers and their target genes remain largely unchanged," says Eileen Furlong, who led the work. "Enhancers regulate transcription, so it was really surprising that there are few changes in their interactions at a time when transcription is changing."
To activate a gene, an enhancer has to come into contact with the portion of DNA at the start of the gene – its promoter. For enhancers that are located far away from their targets, the cell achieves this by looping the DNA around to bring about that contact. Yad Ghavi-Helm, a postdoctoral fellow in Furlong's lab, found that, in developing fruit fly embryos, these DNA loops are formed, contact is established, and the cell's gene-reading machinery is recruited, hours before the gene is expressed. "Yad, with the help of Alexis [Perez Gonzalez] at the Flow Cytometry Core Facility, made a huge effort to look at this in a cell-type specific way, and it was actually quite disappointing at first to do all that work and not see any changes between cell context, but that very surprising result was in itself very interesting." The finding indicates that the whole system is primed in advance, ready to spring to action when needed. The sequencing itself was done with the support of the Genomics Core facility.
Drawing on data analysis expertise from computational biologists Tibor Pakozdi from the Furlong lab and Felix Klein from Wolfgang Huber's group, Ghavi-Helm looked at over 100 enhancers that are known in Drosophila and mapped what genes they establish contacts with. The team discovered that these genetic regulators act across long distances in the genome, and in complex ways. Such a prevalence of long-distance action and such complex interactions were previously known to be widespread among vertebrates, but these findings show that they evolved much earlier.
For Furlong, Ghavi-Helm and colleagues, the study opens up a plethora of further questions: At what point in an embryo's life do enhancer loops form? And how long after a gene has been switched off do the loops remain? If loop formation isn't the trigger for gene activation, what is? What's the exact role of the contacts they have found? And finally, a technically challenging question: unravelling if all an enhancer's interactions are happening at the same time in the same cell.

Benedict Sheehan has spearheaded and participated in several internationally acclaimed and Grammy-nominated Orthodox choral projects.
Now the director of music at St. Tikhon's Monastery and Seminary in Waymart, Pennsylvania, and artistic director and founder of the monastery's professional St. Tikhon Choir, has received more recognition, taking home the American Prize's Dale Warland Award in Choral Conducting.
The American Prize is a series of annual competitions in the performing arts, recognizing recorded performances of classical music. The competition site writes of Sheehan:
GRAMMY®-nominated conductor and composer Benedict Sheehan has been called "a rising star in the choral world" (Catholic Sentinel). He is Artistic Director and Founder of The Saint Tikhon Choir and the Artefact Ensemble, as well as Director of Music at St. Tikhon's Monastery and Seminary in Pennsylvania. His Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom, on which he conducts The Saint Tikhon Choir, garnered acclaim as "simply beyond praise" (Fanfare), "extravagantly beautiful" (The American Organist), and "a new standard for excellence" (The Living Church Magazine). His innovative "story score," featured on Skylark Vocal Ensemble's 2021 GRAMMY®-nominated album Once Upon A Time, has been hailed as "evocative" (Gramophone) and "otherworldly" (Boston Musical Intelligencer). His newest story score, based on Dickens' A Christmas Carol, recently recorded by Skylark, will be released in late 2021. Sheehan's music is published by Oxford University Press, Artefact Publications, Musica Russica, and others. On the web at benedictsheehanmusic.com.
Sheehan's Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom was nominated for a Grammy this year. The St. Tikhon Choir was also nominated last year for its live recording of Alexander Kastalsky's Requiem for Fallen Brothers.
Sheehan is also a co-founder of the Patriarch Tikhon Russian-American Music Institute, which was nominated for Grammys in 2019 and 2020.

IndyCar Special feature
Have A Go Hero: When a sportscar ace got an unexpected IndyCar chance
James Newbold
, Autosport Plus Editor
The 2013 Sonoma IndyCar race is best remembered for Scott Dixon connecting with a wheel carried by a member of Will Power's pit crew, who was tossed skywards. But for a German sportscar all-rounder, it's also significant as their only US open-wheel start in a career that counts multiple titles in the American Le Mans Series and victory in the Spa 24 Hours
It's not often that a seasoned sportscar veteran gets a shot at a professional single-seater gig in their mid-30s. But although his IndyCar career lasted just one race, which was ended by an engine failure, Lucas Luhr can claim to be part of that select club after his 2013 cameo at Sonoma for the Sarah Fisher-Hartmann Racing team.
Having won American Le Mans Series titles with Porsche in 2002 and 2003 (GT), Penske in 2006 (LMP2) and Audi in 2008 (LMP1), Luhr was one of US sportscar racing's foremost names as the ALMS prepared to merge with Grand-Am for 2014 under the new United SportsCar Championship moniker (later, colloquially known as just IMSA, in which LMP2 and Daytona Prototypes would form the top class).
The ALMS LMP1 division was a shadow of its former glory in its final two years, Luhr returning Stateside for 2012 after joining Michael Krumm to win the GT1 World Championship with the JRM Nissan outfit in 2011. He added two more ALMS titles alongside Klaus Graf for the Muscle Milk HPD outfit, but had little by way of regular competition.
Luhr and Graf enjoyed a season-long fight with Chris Dyson and Guy Smith's Dyson Racing Lola – Muscle Milk's only full-season opposition – in 2012, but as Dyson brought a rolling roster of drivers in 2013, the German pair was only beaten twice all season by World Endurance Championship regular Rebellion Racing, which entered four of the 10 rounds.
It was during this season of dominance that the then-34-year-old Luhr was approached to join Honda partner team SFHR, partnering promising young gun Josef Newgarden in his second year with the team.
"Basically it started off as a thank you from Honda saying, 'Hey, you won us two manufacturer championships and two driver championships, if you want, you can try an IndyCar'," recalls Luhr, whose previous appearance at Sonoma had come in a Porsche GT car in 2004.

After feeling sick when he tried the car virtually on the HPD simulator in California – "I had tonnes of water, I took a half an hour nap and then I sat in the sim for four hours, no problem" – he found the real-life car much harder to drive than expected when he made his first exploratory laps of Sonoma in a pre-event test.
"Everyone was telling me how hard the car is physically to drive, but I was telling myself, 'It can't be that hard, I drove cars without power steering before,'" he says. "But I remember when I left the pits, I said on the radio, 'Guys, there is something wrong with the steering, I think it's broken'. I couldn't believe how hard it was!
"It was fine with the rest of the body, but my arms and fingers, especially the forearms, I thought they were gonna fall off! So between the two dates, every day I went go-karting and I just trained the forearms and my fingers to basically hold the steering wheel."
"When the engineer said, 'Green, green, green', I put the foot down and, 'Boof!' That was it. Otherwise I could have done the race the following week at Baltimore, but because Dixon was up for the championship, they had to keep the reserve engine for him" Lucas Luhr
Aside from the physical acclimatisation, there was plenty of mental recalibration to do as well. Having not raced a single-seater since 1998 in German Formula 3, when he'd mustered two podiums at the Lahr airfield circuit, there was plenty for Luhr to unlearn – not least adapting to a spec Dallara that in many regards had less performance than his regular LMP1 mount.
"I had to reset myself because at that time the LMP1 car had carbon-fibre brakes, and tonnes of downforce," Luhr explains. "I remember braking first time towards the chicane, I completely went straight because there was no brakes, no downforce against the LMP1 car.
"Okay, it had better power, especially if you hit the push-to-pass, but from the car itself I wasn't so impressed in terms of cornering speed, approaching the corner, rolling speed through."
Luhr estimates that he managed 30 laps of testing prior to the event, where he felt lost on set-up.
"I remember I was sitting in the press conference and next to me were [Helio] Castroneves and [Scott] Dixon," Luhr relates. "One journalist asked me, 'How is it going?' and I said, 'Man, I'm completely lost. I don't know, one session the car is great, next session I have no grip'. And they both looked at me and said, 'Hey buddy, you're doing just fine, that's Sears Point in an IndyCar!' So I went, 'Ah, okay!'"
Luhr found the physicality of the IndyCar a shock, and recalls it was weaker in several areas relative to the LMP1 car
Perhaps unsurprisingly, he brought up the rear of the 25-car grid in qualifying, but had kept himself out of trouble in a race overshadowed by a controversial penalty for Dixon after making contact with a member of Will Power's pitcrew while the race-leading pair made their final stops. Having just been repassed by the recovering Dixon, he avoided contact ahead at the hairpin as Ryan Briscoe spun Charlie Kimball, who then was hit by Takuma Sato and Ed Carpenter, but was unable to fight for positions at the final restart when his engine let go.
"When the engineer said, 'Green, green, green', I put the foot down and, 'Boof!' That was it," he says. "Otherwise I could have done the race the following week at Baltimore, but because Dixon was up for the championship, they had to keep the reserve engine for him. Which I was fine with, because there was an ALMS race on the same weekend and I thought maybe it's a little bit too much. I still would have done it though. But anyhow, I enjoyed myself."
Afterwards, Luhr bumped into his former ALMS team boss Roger Penske in the paddock, and his words gave the German's confidence a boost.
"He said, 'Hey, you did very good, boy'," recalls Luhr. "It's the toughest race of the year, all the guys were like super into it because it was almost the last race of the season, and I did probably 30 laps prior to that. For me, that was the biggest compliment you can get from the Captain!"
Satisfied that he could "perform there to a level where I'm not making a complete fool of myself", Luhr opened talks with the team over doing the full season in 2014, but was clear from the start that ovals were off the menu. Dan Wheldon had been killed in a horrifying multi-car pileup at Las Vegas in 2011, unable to avoid a wall of cars in front of him. The dangers of oval racing were reaffirmed the following year at Pocono when Justin Wilson – who finished second at Sonoma on that day – was struck by the nosecone of Sage Karam's crashed car and died of his injuries.
"If I would have been 10 years younger, I would have said yeah I'm going for it," says Luhr. "But at that time I didn't feel really comfortable with it. Obviously there were some terrible accidents and they did nothing wrong, it was something else's fault and they paid with their lives for it. I wasn't willing to take that kind of risk.
"I said, 'I'm going to do Indy because that's another type of racing, it's more like an endurance race'. But to do Fontana or Texas, Las Vegas or something stupid… I was just not willing to take the risk."
Engine failure brought his race to an end and prevented a second outing at Baltimore
Given the chance to have done a full programme of road and street courses, Luhr believes he could have been successful in IndyCar.
"Absolutely, I don't see a reason why not," he says.
Instead, he joined BMW and added victory in the Spa 24 Hours to his CV in 2015, finishing second at the Nurburgring 24 Hours the same year. After his long spell as a factory driver concluded at the end of 2016, he has been a regular in ADAC GT Masters and in the Nurburgring-based VLN Series, before starting his own customer racing team LiLaC Rennsport in 2020 together with experienced engineer Ricki Martino, based in Switzerland.

Over 100 former Afghan forces killed or disappeared by Taliban, rights group says
New York [US], December 1 (ANI): Taliban forces in Afghanistan have executed or forcibly disappeared more than 100 former police and intelligence officers in just four provinces since taking over the country on August 15 despite a proclaimed amnesty, a US-based rights group has said.
The Human Rights Watch (HRW) in a report titled "'No Forgiveness for People Like You,' Executions and Enforced Disappearances in Afghanistan under the Taliban," documents the killing or disappearance of 47 former members of the Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF) - military personnel, police, intelligence service members, and militia - who had surrendered to or were apprehended by Taliban forces between August 15 and October 31.
The rights group gathered credible information on more than 100 killings from Ghazni, Helmand, Kandahar, and Kunduz provinces alone.
"The Taliban leadership's promised amnesty has not stopped local commanders from summarily executing or disappearing former Afghan security force members," said Patricia Gossman, associate Asia director at Human Rights Watch. "The burden is on the Taliban to prevent further killings, hold those responsible to account, and compensate the victims' families."The HRW interviewed 40 people in-person in the four provinces and another 27 by telephone, namely witnesses, relatives and friends of victims, former government officials, journalists, healthcare workers, and Taliban members. A Taliban commander said that those responsible for atrocities "cannot be forgiven."The Taliban leadership has directed members of surrendering security force units to register to receive a letter guaranteeing their safety, HRW said. However, Taliban forces have used these screenings to detain and summarily execute or forcibly disappear people within days after they register, leaving their bodies for their relatives or communities to find.
The Taliban have also carried out abusive search operations, including night raids, to apprehend and, at times, forcibly disappear suspected former officials.
"Taliban night raids are terrifying," a civil society activist from Helmand province said. "They are conducted on the pretext of disarming ex-security forces who have not surrendered weapons. Those that 'disappear' are [victims] of night raids. The family can't report or confirm. The families can't even ask where [the person has been taken]."During searches, the Taliban often threaten and abuse family members to make them reveal the whereabouts of those in hiding. Some of those eventually apprehended have been executed or taken into custody without acknowledgement that they are being held, or information about their location.
The executions and disappearances have generated fear among former government officials and others who might have believed that the Taliban takeover would bring an end to the revenge attacks that had been characteristic of Afghanistan's long armed conflict, HRW added. (ANI)

Raised from Obscurity
Raised from Obscurity:
A Narratival and Theological Study of the Characterization of Women in Luke-Acts
By Greg W. Forbes and Scott D. Harrower
An examination of the role of women in Luke-Acts, their significance in Luke's narrative of salvation, and the theology implicit in their portrayal.
Available as: Paperback, PDF
Luke-Acts contains many and diverse female characters, many of whom play significant roles in the unfolding drama of God's plan of salvation through Jesus and the early church. Women followers of Jesus are fully-fledged disciples who prove to be reliable and insightful, participating in God's mission at all levels. They act as interpreters of salvation history, God's prophetic mouthpieces, witnesses to the resurrection, proclaimers and teachers of the gospel, and patrons and leaders of the early church.
At the heart of this narratival exposure lies a particular theology of women. This narratival presentation and theology is rich and quite remarkable given the socio-religious climate in which Luke wrote. An appreciation of this "narratival theology" is important, not only for a well-rounded understanding of Luke-Acts, but as a vital part of the variegated witness of the New Testament regarding the role of women in God's new community.

Foreword by Lynn H. Cohick (PDF, 66 KB)
Chapter 1: Introduction and Methodology (PDF, 210 KB)
Greg W. Forbes is Professor of New Testament and Greek at Melbourne School of Theology in Australia.
Scott D. Harrower is Assistant Professor of Theology and History at Ridley College, Melbourne in Australia.
The only way to get to the realities of women among the followers of Jesus and in the earliest churches is methodological patience. We must probe the evidence from all angles – social realities, archaeological studies, exegetical examinations, and theological perspectives. What Forbes and Harrower offer in Raised from Obscurity is a profound literary propositional analysis in its many dimensions. This book will become a necessary beginning for all future studies of women in Luke-Acts and will challenge more than a few who are intent on suppressing the voices of women. In this book women in Luke-Acts witness to Jesus with clarity and power. Scot McKnight, Professor of New Testament, Northern Seminary, Lombard, IL
In Raised from Obscurity Forbes and Harrower provide a sensitive narrative and theological reading of women in Luke-Acts. They show Luke's mosaic of women both in the ministry of Jesus and in the early church, raising awareness and possibilities for women of faith today. This is a book that will resource scholars, pastors, and preachers from across the theological spectrum. Sarah Harris, NT Lecturer, Carey Baptist College, Auckland, NZ
A thorough study of the women in Luke-Acts.... [Raised from Obscurity] should be taken into consideration in theological debates concerning the place of women in Christian ministry today. Melanie A. Howard, in Biblical Theology Bulletin, Vol 47
This is a carefully argued and thorough book which aims to integrate insights from narrative criticism with a theological reading of Luke-Acts, seeking to recover Luke's theology of women. Alison M. Jack, in Journal for the Study of the New Testament, Vol 39, No 5

Confession time: I kind of hate Christmas.
Okay, maybe hate is too strong a word. And I don't necessarily mean the basic concept of Christmas itself. Whatever religious significance you'd like to attach to the holiday, to me Christmas is the gatherings of family and friends, a sharing of thoughts and time, a reminder of the important things. Whatever particular version of a particular holiday you choose to celebrate this time of year, I'd be willing to bet that those things are somewhere close to its core.
Unfortunately, that's not what our society is trying to force down our throats, and hasn't been for a really long time.
What we have is Christmas decorations for sale starting as early as the long weekend in August. As the calendar advances, they take up more and more space, barely giving away anything to Thanksgiving, which, due to its nature of it primarily just being about being grateful for what we have, has a hard time completing, hence the spread of the black Friday plague. It grudgingly allows some space for Halloween, which people like to celebrate with a sugar overdose, but before those decorations can come down on the first of November, Christmas is in full swing. The music, the decorations, the moral outrage that the holiday isn't what some people think it is, the public displays of over-consumption and conspicuous goodwill.
No other holiday requires two full months to celebrate and three more to remind us that it's coming.
So yes, I hate Christmas. But what I hate about it, we've done to ourselves.
If it makes you happy, if you find joy in it, you can have your annual debt increase and smoking credit cards. You can have your ridiculous pile of decorations and your inflated electric bill. You can have your rampant materialism and consumerism and all your shiny new toys. You can even have your table-breaking, seam-splitting, belly-bursting, enough calories to survive on for a month Christmas Day feast. I'm good, thanks. I've had enough.
I'll have my family, a quiet meal in a safe place, and as much time with them as I can manage. I'll have my friends where I can find them, a shared drink, and a toast to warm memories.
At least, he thinks it used to.


WILLIAM BOOTH would accept good ideas from whatever source and, in fact, enjoyed reaching outside his Wesleyan tradition at times. Consequently, In Darkest England absorbed reform ideas from nineteenth-century populists and socialists. Perhaps to gain broad public support Booth chose to converge his ideas with those of popular secular reformers.
Booth acknowledged the influence of American reformers Edward Bellamy and Henry George, but he particularly noted the ideas of three British reformers, none of whom shared his Wesleyan-evangelical religious persuasion: Count Rumford, E. T. Craig, and the Earl of Meath. Here is what Booth gained from each.
Count Rumford had abolished beggary in Bavaria in the late eighteenth century, and his ideas had again become popular in the 1880s. As an American loyal to the Crown, he had served in the British Army "with considerable distinction in the Revolutionary War," according to Booth. After the war, he settled in England and then moved to Bavaria to reform its army. While there he set up Houses of Industry in which, beginning on New Year's Eve 1790, he compelled beggars to work. He discovered that when he treated them with justice and kindness, offered clean and orderly surroundings, and provided inexpensive provisions, they responded with hard work. Best of all for Booth and cost—conscious Victorians, Rumford's program was self-sufficient. A military approach to unemployment, vice, and poverty impressed Booth, who agreed with Rumford that the poor need direction from a strong hand.
Like the Count, Booth would organize workers "not as a bewildered bewildering mob, but as a firm regimented mass, with real captains over them." Booth's city colony workshops reflected Rumford's Munich workhouses, and, like Rumford, his autocratic leadership was thoroughly military.
E. T. Craig was an aged Robert Owen disciple who set up an agricultural cooperative experiment at Ralahine, Ireland, in 1831. With support from John Scott Vandeleur, a wealthy Irish landowner, Craig had induced unruly Irish peasants to increase production and improve living standards. Profits, after rent, belonged to the peasants. Craig, as would Booth, permitted no intoxicating drink or tobacco. Unfortunately, gambling by estate—owner Vandeleur led to the 1833 closing of Ralahine. When Booth established his farm colonies, he followed the Ralahine format (even though he was no ideological descendant of secularist Robert Owen).
The Earl of Meath was president of a rival social—evangelical organization, the Church Army, founded by the Church of England in 1882 as a Salvation Army clone. At the time, the Church was negotiating with Booth to merge his Army with the established church as its evangelistic arm.
Meath also contributed to Booth's ideas for the second and third phases of the Darkest England scheme, English and overseas farm colonies. Meath had pressed for state-directed colonization of the unemployed in "Greater Britain" in 1886. In 1890, Booth offered to become the state's agent in selecting, preparing, and transporting poor but willing settlers for relocation in Britain's overseas empire. Booth echoed Meath's concern that the dominions would not accept London's vicious paupers, and he agreed that prior training on an English farm colony could improve work habits and character and make paupers acceptable for emigration. He followed Meath's prescription for successful emigrants: (1) character was more important than agricultural training; the government's program had failed because it had not followed this plan; and (2) children could be trained on model farms in England to be apprenticed to colonial farmers.
Meath resented Booth's use of his plan. His Church Army accused Booth of stealing social reform ideas from a pamphlet, "Our Tramps," published in March 1890. The pamphlet proposed a three-fold scheme of city, farm, and overseas colonies.. Booth could have charged this alleged theft as repayment for the Church Army's theft of his idea for militant evangelism as well as his hymns. Nonetheless, Meath wanted Booth to acknowledge his sources for Darkest England. He wrote in 1904 that a "great religious Nonconformist leader"—almost certainly Booth— had not mentioned twenty-two German labor colonies in existence in 1890. Was this due to ignorance or to a desire to "claim credit for an idea which was not novel"? Meath's barb is an example of principled jealousy. Booth often found that the clergy, labor union leaders, social workers, and philanthropists were his most ardent foes in religion and in social reform.

Here is one fat wad of bubblegum pop! This track is my favorite from my vinyl of the time (1969?) of Kirschner/RCA's The Archies Greatest Hits, written by producer Jeff Barry and co-written and sung by Ron Dante. Most of the other songs from this album were co-written by Canadian Andy Kim who went on to have his own major '70s hit with Rock Me Gently. I really dig this sound regardless of the crassly commercial nature of the whole thing... Get some proper quality Archies recordings when you get a chance, they are worth it with great tracks like Sunshine(Barry/Bloom), Everything's Alright (Dante), Feelin' So Good(Barry/Kim), Bang-Shang-A-Lang (Barry), and another personal favorite Jingle Jangle (Barry/Kim). Hey, I'm just a girl, so it's okay for me to dig this stuff.


Kind bar closed in September to make way for a mystery transformation.
It has been a feature at the top of Lincoln High Street for over 13 years, but when Kind bar closed at the beginning of September interest grew over its future.
Workers began transforming the bottom-of-the-hill bar ready for its new chapter and now, shoppers have spotted a range of 'unusual' objects being delivered to the building under the cover of darkness.
Scaffolding surrounded the building for some weeks, but it seemed this was just a hint at the renovation project being undertaken inside.
Today, The Lincolnite received a letter from a mysterious personality going by the name of 'The Shopkeeper' claiming to be the new owner.
He wished to inform reporters that his new bazaar, selling "antiques & apothecary, tonics & tinctures" will be opening soon and attached was an invitation for a tour.
The Curiosity Shop is set to be an intriguing addition to the Lincoln High Street.
We will be bringing readers a closer look inside the city's new emporium at a later date, but for now, the interesting new attraction is maintaining a rather secretive frontage.
Apart from covered-up shop windows, passers-by may only achieve a glimpse at what's to come.

Safura Biography
Safura
Safura Alizadeh (Azerbaijani: Səfurə Əlizadə; born 20 September 1992, Baku) is an Azerbaijani singer and saxophonist.
Safura Alizadeh's father is a professional painter and her mother is a pianist and a fashion designer. Alizadeh began singing when she was very young and made her first stage appearance at age 6. In the course of her career, she sang in children's bands Sharg Ulduzlari and Bulbullar. Alizadeh took up violin lessons at the Baku Musical School No 2 but later also learned to play the piano and the saxophone. She became the winner of the national contest Yeni Ulduz (Season 8). Since the eighth grade Safura has been studying at the school no. 23 in Baku. Her favourite author is Stephenie Meyer, and her favourite book is the Twilight series. Safura expressed a wish to see Robert Pattinson in one of her music videos.
Safura's saxophone playing was praised by composer Farhad Badalbeyli, who described it as brilliant.
On 2 March 2010, Alizadeh won the Azerbaijani national final decided by jury and represented Azerbaijan in the Eurovision Song Contest 2010, which was held in Oslo, Norway. Alizadeh performed at the contest with the song "Drip Drop", written by Anders Bagge, Stefan Örn and Sandra Bjurman. Shortly after she performed on the concert in Ukraine and exchanged wishes with Ukrainian performer Vasyl Lazarovych. The video for the song was directed by a well known film director Rupert Wainwright, and choreographed by JaQuel Knight, who worked with Beyoncé and Britney Spears. Knight also designed the choreography of Safura's stage performance in Oslo.
On 1 May 2010, Safura began her promotional tour, and visited Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland, Poland, Russia, Ukraine, and Sweden. On 24 May she visited joint Ukraine—Germany party, attended by Alyosha and Lena Meyer-Landrut. After Meyer-Landrut's performance Safura gave a native Azerbaijani mat for Alyosha and an ancient horse shoe for luck to Lena.
After performing in the Semi-Final of the Eurovision on 27 May 2010 she qualified for the final two days later, where she came fifth. On May 28, Safura took part in the celebration of Azerbaijan's Republic Day and performed on stage of Eurovision Village.
2010: After Eurovision and album
Safura has signed a five-year contract with a group of Swedish and Ukrainian producers. Her first album, titled It's My War, is scheduled for release on 18 June 2010.

Q: How can I listen to multple actions in NGXS? I'm in the process of converting an application from NgRX to NgXs. In NgRx, I could 'listen' to multiple actions in an effect and react appropriately to them. How can I accomplish this using NgXS?
In NgRx, I may have something like the following in an effect
this.actions$.pipe(
 ofType(fromCustomers.pageLoaded),
 ofType(fromCustomers.pageRefreshed)
)

I see in NgXs that the @Action decorator can accept and array of action types, but I'm confused on how get the value from the multiple action types when delcaring the method.

A: In NGXS, you can listen to multiple actions via @Action decorator, like the following:
@Action([fromCustomers.pageLoaded, fromCustomers.pageRefreshed])
pageLoadedOrRefreshed(
  ctx: StateContext<YOUR_STATE_MODEL>,
  payload: fromCustomers.pageLoaded | fromCustomers.pageRefreshed
) {

CTA to Extend Pilot of New Bus Service on 31st Street Through March 2018
CTA will further study ridership demand, engage with the community and promote the route
The Chicago Transit Authority today announced it will continue a pilot of new bus service on 31st Street for another six months, following healthy demand for the service from customers.
The Chicago Transit Board approved the extension of the pilot service on 31st Street between Ashland Orange Line and 33rd/King Drive from September 2017 through March 2018, which will provide CTA with more time to promote the service and allow the agency the ability to evaluate ridership over a longer period to time while continuing to collect feedback from the customers and residents of the communities along the route.
The #31 pilot is among a series of improvements that have been implemented by Mayor Emanuel and CTA President Dorval R. Carter, Jr. to improve CTA bus service systemwide. Other service enhancements include the expansion of bus service on the South Side, the restoration of express service on Ashland and Western avenues, launch of Loop Link, and new pilots that allow customers to prepay bus fares before boarding to increase bus service reliability.
Buses operate on 31st Street Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. every 30 minutes between the Ashland Orange Line station and the Lake Meadows Shopping Center at 33rd Place and King Drive. The route offers transit connections to schools, shopping centers and entertainment, including Guaranteed Rate Field. The route also provides connections to the Orange, Red and Green lines and several north-south bus routes.
The 31st Street pilot follows the expansion of CTA service on the #35 31st/35th route in 2013, when CTA extended the route and added weekend service to the 31st Street beach during the summer months.
At the end of the #31 pilot in March 2018, CTA will determine whether to conclude the pilot, extend it or make the service permanent.
For more information about the #31, please visit: transitchicago.com/31pilot/.


European shares fell on Monday after a rally last week, as weaker drug makers more than offset gains by oil stocks to near 17-month highs.
Shares in Swiss pharmaceutical company Lonza fell 6.9 per cent after it said it was in advanced talks to buy U.S. drugs capsule maker Capsugel. Earlier, sources told Reuters the deal could be worth more than $5 billion (£3.97 billion).
Baader Bank analyst Laura Lopez Pineda said the deal made strategic sense, but worries about a potential capital increase to finance it may weigh on the shares.
Lonza's decline was the biggest in Europe and helped to drag Europe's STOXX Healthcare index down 1 per cent.
Top losers included precious metal miner Polymetal, which fell 4.6 per cent as gold prices were dragged down by expectations that a possible U.S. rate hike this week would curb demand for the safe-haven asset.
The STOXX Europe 600 fell 0.4 per cent after hitting its highest level in around 11 months in the previous session. The index remains down more than 3 per cent so far this year.
But losses in the broader market were limited by a rally in crude oil. Crude prices climbed to their highest since mid-2015 after the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries and non-OPEC producers reached their first deal since 2001 to jointly reduce output.
The STOXX Oil & Gas index surged more than 2 per cent to its highest level since July 2015. Oil stocks such as Tullow Oil, Petrofac and Eni were among the top STOXX gainers, rising 3.5 to 9.4 per cent.
Italy's FTSE MIB rose 1.1 per cent, outperforming the rest of Europe thanks to gains among its banks and after Foreign Minister Paolo Gentiloni was tasked to form a new government.
Monte dei Paschi rose more than 7 per cent. The ailing bank said it was pressing ahead with a plan to raise 5 billion euros (£4.21 billion) on the market this year, despite political uncertainty.
UniCredit, the country's biggest bank, rose 3.5 per cent after a deal to sell asset manager Pioneer to France's Amundi for 3.5 billion euros (£2.95 billion). Amundi shares rose over 4 per cent to a record high.

Peter Moore: Hard drive killed first Xbox
MCV Staff 17th September 2008	Business News
third part
of The Guardian's recent interview with current EA Sports boss and former Sega and Microsoft gaming head Peter Moore, the charismatic figure has admitted that the price of the hard drive in the original Xbox was the main factor that forced the company to make an early move to Xbox 360.
Moore stated: Not having a hard drive in every Xbox 360 was a hard decision, but we wanted to get price under control. The hard drive in every Xbox killed us; we we're still selling it at $199 and the hard drive was like $70. That's why we prematurely left the original Xbox, because the more we were selling – there was still great demand – it was killing us, and there was no way to bring the price down.
So in the end we determined at around the 25 million unit mark that we just needed to slow this thing down and just not sell any more, and move to the 360 as quickly as we possibly could. And to this day people still believe we left the Xbox too early but it was purely for financial purposes."
Elsewhere in the interview, in which Moore has previously admitted to being the individual responsible for finally dropped the axe on Sega's struggling Dreamcast, he explains the mixed feelings at Microsoft concerning the firm's entry into the console market:
There were two very distinct camps. I'd say the great majority of people loved it. It was a great rallying cry, they were proud of the fact we were doing consoles – it was the first physical thing you could really get behind at Microsoft other than a mouse or a keyboard, and it was entertainment.
There was a vocal minority that disagreed with video games as a cultural phenomenon – the content we were doing. We did M rated, we did allow GTA to be published on the platform and I had no issues with that… and then the drain on the company's stock price, because we were a multi-billion dollar investment group and it had an impact on the stock price."

Did you know that there is currently enough plastic waste in the ocean to cover the state of texas twice!! And that's just in the Pacific Ocean. The fish are eating the plastic and we are eating the fish, It affects every single one of us, so we decided to do something to change this. We created a clothing line made from 100% recycled materials. As college students we want to change the way the world sees waste. We all see the recycling bins but we don't ever really see where the waste goes. We want to show how waste can be given a new life and how it can be something we can even wear.
It is our overall mission to change the way the world sees waste. We do this by giving plastic and other waste a new life. We have currently diverted over 5,000 plastic water bottles from either entering our oceans or sitting in landfills. With our design and engineering background we are finding new ways to reuse waste on a daily basis.
