A Portuguese court has ruled against Alphabet's Google in a landmark case involving a local app.
Portuguese app store Aptoide revealed that the court has ordered Google to stop removing its app from users' mobile phones without their knowledge.
Aptoide's lawyer Carlos Nestal added that it was the first case of an EU national court enforcing separation of the Android operating system and services that run on it, allowing rival apps to compete with Google.
"We believe this may apply to other situations where Google has competition," Nestal said. A statement from Aptoide explained that the court decision is applicable in 82 countries, including the UK and India.
This is the latest legal hurdle for the tech giant. In July, the company was hit with a $5.1 billion antitrust fine from the European Union over what the EU calls an abuse of the Android operating system. The fine stems from an inquiry by antitrust regulators at the European Union into whether or not Google abused its position with the Android OS, which is on more than 80 percent of the smartphones around the globe, by favoring its own mobile apps and services including its search engine.
This month it was revealed that Google was getting set to appeal the fine. And even the President got into the fray, tweeting shortly after the fine was announced that the move shows the EU has "taken advantage of the U.S., but not for long!" The report noted that Trump views the fine as further evidence that Europe is exploiting the U.S. in trade, defense spending and regulations.


In a recent study, 38% of workers said they're actively looking for a new job – and they didn't list wages as a reason why.
In a rough economy, many managers turn to formal and informal recognition efforts to boost morale and retention. But think patting someone on the back for a job well done is an effective retention strategy? A new survey says think again.
Think patting someone on the back for a job well done is an effective retention strategy? A new survey says think again.
Can employees appreciate what they don't understand?
Nine of 10 HR managers polled by Colonial Life feel that employees have at least a vague notion that benefits are a valuable part of working at a company.

Zoning permit has been issued to all building plots, and also building permit for the majority of them. Thus you can commence the construction of your house almost immediately. Each plot is provided with an ideal co-ownership at your own private beach.


So, you probably know that today is the deadline for our Hall of Fame votes. And that means I'm putting together my massive Hall of Fame post. I believe that will be up at NBC tomorrow and then, on Thursday at noon, I'm planning a Hall of Fame chat here on the blog. Come one. Come all.
So, first, an appetizer. Everybody knows that this year's Hall of Fame ballot is crazy. There has never been one quite like it. For the first time, you hear numerous baseball writers complaining that they are only allowed to vote for 10 players — this is a group where people in the past have often voted for one or two. For the first time, the hardest decisions involved which Hall of Fame caliber player I would NOT vote for because I simply did not have the ballot space.
— There are 15 players who I would vote for the Hall of Fame if I could.
— There are nine players I would not vote for the Hall, but they have pretty good cases.
— There are 12 players who were pretty clearly not Hall of Famers.
Now, I've already written: I'm not sure those 12 clear non-Hall of Famers serve much purpose being on the ballot. Nobody thinks of them as Hall of Famers so they are kind of just taking up space. But, this is the way it's done now. And, as mentioned, it's an honor just to be on the ballot.
— Moises Alou: Probably the best player in this group. He was even better than his father Felipe, who was also a good player. A lifetime .300 hitter with more than 300 home runs. A six-time All-Star. Compares quite favorably with Hall of Famers Chuck Klein and Hack Wilson, among others.
— Armando Benitez: A good reliever who pitched for seven different teams and had 289 career saves. Benitez could throw serious gas and averaged 10.9 strikeouts per nine innings.
— Sean Casey: They called him the Mayor, and he was, more or less, every sportswriter's favorite player. Approachable, quotable, funny … he was also a line-drive hitter with a lifetime .300 average. Early in his career hit as many as 25 home runs, but his power more or less disappeared at age 30. He never drove in 100 RBIs, but he twice drove in 99.
— Ray Durham: A survivor. Durham lasted in the big leagues long enough to get 2,000 hits and to score more than 1,2000 runs. He was fast when young and he walked a bit so he did have a knack for scoring runs — he had a six -year stretch where he scored 100-plus runs every year.
— Eric Gagne: Could never get it together as a starter, but he was dominant as a reliever for four seasons. He had a .830 WHIP and a 1.38 ERA between 2002 and 2005, and he averaged more than 13 strikeouts per nine innings. In that time, he won a Cy Young Award and finished in the Top 10 twice more. He was named in the Mitchell Report.
— Jacque Jones: He never made an All-Star team but he was a key player in the resurgence of the Minnesota Twins in the early 2000s. His best year by far was 2002, when he hit .300 with 27 homers and 96 runs scored. The following year he hit .304 with somewhat less power in few games. He struck out a lot and seemed allergic to walks but he was solid and very popular in Minnesota.
— Todd Jones: A durable reliever with more than 300 saves in his career. Jones pitched for eight different teams in 16 seasons and kept finding ways to survive in the big leagues without a great fastball or much of an out pitch.
— Paul Lo Duca: He hit well in the minor leagues for years without getting a big-league shot. Finally when he was 29 he became the Dodgers everyday catcher, and he hit .320 with 25 homers and 90 RBis and received MVP votes. He was never again as good, though he was good enough to be selected to four All-Star teams. He was named in the Mitchell Report.
— Hideo Nomo: There is a not unreasonable Hall of Fame argument for Nomo as a pioneer. He was the first Japanese League player to relocate in the United States. This, in itself, was a major step, but then there was immense pressure on him to succeed. He did. He was an immediate sensation with his unique pitching delivery; he led the league in strikeouts and shutouts in his Nomomania rookie season. He was never as good after that, His success certainly paved the way for Ichiro, Yu Darvish, Hideki Matsui and others. He was never quite as good again, though he did throw two no-hitters, again led the league in strikeouts and won 123 big league games.
— Richie Sexson: A personal favorite. I've always liked those swing-for-the-fences players. There's something forthright about them. Sexson hit 30-plus homers six times in his career — twice hitting 45. He also had five seasons with 150-plus strikeouts. He was always a limited player. He couldn't run, couldn't field, couldn't make enough contact, and he was done at 33. But at his best, Sexson would step in — at 6-foot-6, 200-plus pounds you noticed him — and he would swing big and hit massive fly balls and baseball's more fun with players like that.
— J.T. Snow: A solid player who got on base, hit 20-plus homers three times, had three 90-plus RBI seasons and won six consecutive Gold Gloves at first base. He was indeed a slick-looking fielder though the defensive numbers wildly disagree with the award voters — for his career, his defensive WAR is minus-11.2 wins.
— Mike Timlin: A versatile pitcher who lasted until he was 42. He did manage 31 saves one year, but he was mostly a middle-reliever or setup man. Perhaps the most amazing thing about Timlin is that he pitched in 46 postseason games for four different teams. He pitched in four World Series and his teams won them all.
Weird: in the movie Inside Llewyn Davis, Llewyn's (dead) ex-partner is named Mike Timlin.
It's always nice to read some words about Alou. One of my all-time favorites.
Can we please – PLEASE – stop mentioning the Mitchell Report as some uniform badge of dishonor? I know why people do it, as it's a convenient way to identify players from a certain era who were connected to PEDs. But the Mitchell Report was hastily prepared, ill-researched, had no intention of applying some consistent standard for naming a player, and was almost entirely a product of MLB's lame PR efforts rather then an honest attempt at assessing baseball's PED problem. To tag certain players as "Mitchell Report" guys, and others as not, is to distort the image of PEDs from that era.
Even if you give the report all credence, being named in the report meant vastly different things. Some players had fairly extensive connections to PED dealers, well-documented in the report. Others were mentioned alongside virtually no substantiation actually tying them to PEDs. A blanket "Mitchell Report" tag provides so little information, with the wide range of evidence supporting the naming of a player in the report, as to provide almost no information at all.
We can do better than that. We all are smart enough, capable enough, and appreciate nuances sufficiently to understand that assessing any one player's contribution during this era is a complex, conflicted, and perhaps ultimately impossible venture.
I think that adding a mostly meaningless scarlet letter to some players adds nothing, and very well encourages the type of suspicion-fueled labeling that so clutters the hall of fame voting today.
Good points well worth repeating. The Mitchell Report relied on a few informants with ties to only a few teams. Players on other teams were also using just were not known by those particular informants.
I think Joe's just mentioning the Mitchell Report as a way of saying Gagne has no chance of election. Joe has said he'd vote for suspected PED users so he's not using it as a judgment tool. But it is important to mention the report because so many voters won't vote for anyone with even the slightest hint of steriods – regardless of the veracity of the reports.
@ Brian — Ok, I get that. If that's all you were referencing the report for Joe, sorry for using this forum for a rant. I still think it doesn't help the conversation overall, though.
Of these guys, a few will inevitably get weird rationale/pity votes a la Shawn Green and Aaron Sele last year. I imagine That Alou and Nomo will get 2-5 votes a piece (since there is an almost reasonable case for their consideration) with maybe Gagne and Casey picking up a couple. I hope that Ray Durham gets one, but I doubt it. No one else screams pity vote to me, but then again, Aaron Sele didn't last year.
There is no excuse for a pity vote this year.
That said, there are a ridiculous number of voters (~800 I think?), and we know that a fair number (hundreds, at least) are stupidly limiting their votes for real candidates, which means you only need 3 guys out of 300 to decide to throw a bone to Nomo or Moises.
Point being, you're right as a normative matter – nobody should get any pity votes this year – but wrong as a descriptive one – somebody will.
As a Twins fan, I just wanna say it does my heart good to see Jacque Jones on the HOF ballot. He was your classic "what you see is what you get" player who played hard and always had a smile on his face. He embodied those early 2000s Gardy teams that were so fun to root for.
Thought about Murakami (thanks, Great American Baseball Card Flipping, Trading & Bubble Gum Book). And maybe one year in the States isn't "relocating".
I read Tom Verducci's column last week and it had an interesting stat on Alou. Alou is one of 11 players to hit 330 homers and strike out less than 900 times. Of th 11 to do it, only Rocky Colavito (and Alou) will not be in the HOF.
I've started calling obscure random cherry-picked stats "Verduccis".
One of my absolute favorite posts of the year. These guys are like all those ancillary characters on Joe's favorite show, The Office. The stars run the show, but those other players give the stars meaning and it's these iter goods not greats who you root for just as much if not more.
I have always thought that Moises Alou should have been voted the 1997 World Series MVP instead of Livan Hernandez. Alou hit 3 home runs, 9 rbi's, 20 total bases, and a 1.101 OPS.
Hernandez won two games as a starter, but was not especially impressive in either of them.
His ERA was 5.27. I think he won because his personal story about his escape from Cuba was compelling.
True, none of these men are ever going to get in the Hall of Fame without paying the admission fee. But they are all fine players who helped their teams win a lot of games (and surely along the way made a lot of fans happy). So can we at least give them all a round of applause?
I hate to nitpick your stuff, but this is a pet peeve of mine. The dWAR number you're quoting includes the positional adjustment. -9 wins of that are because he was a first baseman. The actual fielding part of dWAR says he was 2.2 wins shy of an average fielder at first base over the course of his career. That isn't what you'd expect out of a guy with 6 Gold Gloves, but is a bit better than -11 wins.
That Timlin WS factoid is amazing. I still remember him as the guy who got Otis Nixon out to end the 92 World Series.
He would be 2.2 wins shy of a REPLACEMENT player, not an average one. 0 in WAR is "replacement".
Either way, his dWAR is -11. The positional adjustment is part of the measurement.
ingres77, he's 2.2 wins shy of an average player, defensively. dWAR is based on league average, not on replacement level. It is believed that replacement level players are of average defensive ability.
According the Sean Smith's WAR that's used by baseball reference, there's no such thing as a replacement level defender. For defense a replacement level defense = average fielder. So Snow is 2.2 wins shy of an average fielder at first. If you hover over the rField tab on a b-r player page it explains this.
And positional adjustment confuses a lot of people. If Joe wants to say that Snow's defensive numbers don't match the gold gloves at first base, he shouldn't include the adjustment for being a first baseman. That's totally irrelevant. Similarly, I've seen articles claiming that Keith Hernandez is overrated because he's held to be a fantastic fielder, but his dWAR is only 0.5 so he couldn't have been that good.
And relax, there's no need to use ALLCAPS to emphasize things.
And he still has the game ball from the final out of the '92 World Series. Fun factoid that came up during that weird fight between the Red Sox and Doug Mientkiewicz over who got to keep the ball from the '04 series.
1997 World Series, my seven year old daughter have left field bleacher seats for the blizzard game in Cleveland. We get there early and catch the Marlins BP. I notice kids along the rail and say "lets give it a try".
A Marlins ballplayer grabs a ball and looks up at us. He looks at me and points to her. I nod my head, "yes, she's with me." He tosses the ball up to me and my daugther starts screaming thanks..
Yeah, Moises Alou belongs in the Hall of Fame.
Hope you washed that baseball before handing it over to your daughter.
Lol! Water under the bridge at this point!
Hideo Nomo is underrated in America. Along Ichiro, Nomo has been the most celebrated player in Asia, even to this day. He's a bulldog, never quit his dedication to play in the Major League AND revive the independent leagues in Japan. His bold move of retiring from Japan in order to get the hell out so he COULD CHOOSE where he plays–His action revolutionized the baseball system in Japan; the free agency, new rules, the dynamics between amateur and pro baseball.
He's been a silent contributor to Asian baseball and two hundred million people (a combined population of Korea, Japan, and Taiwan) NOT ONLY as a leader, but a HERO.
One of the things for the Hall of Fame is character, and another is the player's contribution to baseball. It didn't say American baseball. It says BASEBALL. And I believe more than two hundred million fans will appreciate writers like Joe Posnanski at least acknowledge those two boxes for NOMO.
One more thing: People don't say "relocate" in Asia. Going from Asian baseball to Major League-affiliations has been coined "CHALLENGE." It's a word to describe Nomo, who truly challenged the system.

Green Is Beautiful
A net-zero home in Edmonton is built to be highly energy-efficient and aesthetic, too
by Karen Seidman
PHOTOGRAPHY: CHERYL SILSBE
Lindsay Brommeland and her husband, Todd Homan, describe themselves as modern-day hippies: they are vegetarians, urban beekeepers and have a focus on edible landscaping around their new home in downtown Edmonton. So it was only natural that, when they decided to build their new home, they wanted a net zero (or carbon-neutral) house that would meet their goals for sustainability.
"There was nothing we wanted to do more than contribute to an environmentally friendly way of building and living," says Lindsay. "This was something that was very important to us."
Of equal importance to the couple was that the home should have a contemporary and cool vibe: "I would call it modern glam," says Lindsay. "I didn't want it to be cold, but I wanted it to be clean."
The funky bookshelves set the tone for the living room, which is enhanced by the cool colour combinations. Sofas: The Bay; chairs: Structube; coffee table with inlaid stones for texture: HomeSense.
Lindsay devised the layout and design of the home, but the couple hired Koen de Waal of De Waal Developments Ltd. as the builder because he specializes in creating net zero homes.
It's a niche area he developed after trying to build an energy-efficient home for himself in Edmonton several years ago. There were no builders willing to do it in his price range. A civil engineer by profession, de Waal decided he could use his expertise to do it himself, and in a more affordable way. Four years later, he left his engineering job to build homes full-time.
The striking two-storey-high bookcase in the living room fulfilled a lifelong dream of Lindsay's. She wanted a bookcase with a sliding ladder; the honeycomb motif that overlays it was her daughter's idea as a reference to her parents' beekeeping hobby.
That is not the only personal touch Lindsay was able to work into the home. The wallpaper used in the TV room resembles a jukebox, and she was able to incorporate the couple's favourite rock songs onto it.
The IKEA dining table and chairs work well with the light fixture above from Park Lighting & Furniture in Edmonton.
And the custom floating staircase, constructed of ash wood, incorporates pipes that were specially welded to create its spine – a unique feature that references Todd's career in the oil and gas industry.
Although not a designer by occupation, Lindsay relied on her life experience to create the home of her dreams. Her former house, built in 1912, was dusty and lacked cupboard space as well as a spacious kitchen. Her displeasure with some of those features fueled many of her design decisions regarding the new home.
"This is my passion project," she says. "I wanted to create the perfect flow and I think I have." She also worked with de Waal to develop a perfect net-zero home, and they have succeeded on that level as well.
The concrete floors create the contemporary look that the homeowner wanted. Much of the kitchen cabinetry was made of bamboo, a sustainable material.
The house he built for the couple relies on no natural gas or oil. Instead, it has air-source heat pumps that move heat from one place to another and provide all the heating and hot water for the house. Even in minus-20 Celsius temperatures – in fact, in anything that is above absolute zero, which is minus-273 degrees Celsius – the system can take whatever heat is there and use it to heat the air and water. "There is no combustion of any natural gas or oil," explains de Waal. "There's just a little compressor which takes heat from one place and moves it to another with the help of electricity."
It relies on a complex calculation, he says, but the system is two times more efficient than most available heating systems. And it can save homeowners about $1,000 a month. An added bonus is that it also cools the home in summer. All of that at a cost of only about $5,000 to $8,000 more than a regular furnace.
One of the things the system depends on is the home's air-tightness. "The leakier a home is, the more heating you need to stay comfortable," says de Waal. Newer homes are typically five times more air-tight than older homes, he says.
Functionality was important to Lindsay, so she insisted on a useful mudroom and butler's pantry.
The home used almost twice as much insulation in the walls and attic and under the concrete floor as a typical house. This ensures that less air escapes. It also means that the concrete floors – something that might seem cold for the Edmonton climate – stay warm without requiring heating. "The floors are always warm – warmer than my wood floors," says Lindsay.
The TV room is the "travel room": The area rug was bought on a trip to Turkey and the leather poofs were purchased in Fez, Morocco. The other accent tables are from HomeSense. The sectional sofa from IKEA allowed the homeowners to choose the exact dimensions they needed.
The concrete acts as a thermal sink which absorbs any heat in the home and slowly releases it overnight, says de Waal.
"It's almost like a solar panel that helps regulate the temperature in the home," he says.
Other features of this very green home include triple-paned windows to retain more heat, and solar panels on the roof which produce all of the electricity to operate the home. The homeowners also invested in heat-recovery ventilation, which brings fresh air into the interiors and expels stale air.
The master bedroom is the only bedroom in the 1,900-square-foot home. The sliding panels in the room are from India via Wayfair and allow the couple to look down on the main living space. They gave the panels a custom look with barn door hardware.
From his point of view, de Waal was pleased the clients had as much interest in design as in sustainability. "If a house doesn't look good, nobody wants to buy it no matter how green it is," he says. "This home sets a very high efficiency standard. This is the future of homes. It's just a matter of time." •

The wave of the new SUVs splashed the 2018 Los Angeles Show. Lincoln used the show to present the all-new 2020 Lincoln Aviator. The new model is the brand's replacement for the MKT model and takes the position between the larger Navigator and smaller Nautilus in the brand's lineup. With this launch, Lincoln has the three-row, mid-size SUV to go against the market giants like the BMW X5, Audi Q7, Volvo XC-90 and Mercedes GLE.
Lincoln's new Explorer-based SUV offers the six and seven-seat configurations and plenty of the high-end luxury features. The model also gets an attention with the sleek exterior style and the brand's latest tech and safety equipment. The Aviator gets the propulsion from the twin-turbo V-6 engine and the new plug-in hybrid powertrain is also available making the model the most powerful Lincoln ever.
The all-new, three-row 2020 Lincoln Aviator shares the same architecture with the upcoming, sixth-generation Explorer. This is actually the second generation of the nameplate while the model effectively replaces the MKT SUV. The rear-wheel architecture allows multiple configuration setups including the four-wheel drive.
From the visual perspective, the Aviator uses the styling cues from the larger Navigator SUV and Continental sedan. The look of the model isn't also the surprise because we saw the Lincoln Prototype model at the 2018 Beijing Auto Show.
The large Continental-sedan-like grille and angular headlights define the front-end style in combination with the nice front bomber. The chiseled lines on the hood and sharp charter line mixed with the smooth surfaces form the elegant and attractive look. The sloping roofline and full-width LEDs on tailgate add also to the visual impression.
The premium exterior look comes in hand with the high-class interior design and top-notch tech features. The new Aviator lifted the luxury to the new heights.
The luxury SUV promises the high comfort for the passengers in all three rows and the room for their cargo. The rich textures and details leave also the strong impression while the high-tech features make the ride easier and funnier.
Lincoln offers its new, stunning SUV in the base, Reserve and Black Label trims. There the model will include the leather upholstery, aluminum and wood textures. The model will also offer the 30-way power adjustable front seats and highly configurable middle row. The equipment list will also include the large head-up display, Revel audio systems, 28-speaker Ultima 3D surround system, wireless charging, etc. The handy Lincoln Way app will also provide stop and start functions via the cellphone.
The Aviator will also rely on the Co-Pilot 360 Plus package of the advanced safety systems. The model will come with the sophisticated adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, traffic sign recognition, Stop and Go function bundled in the Traffic Jam Assist system. The safety aspect will also include Active Park Assist, Reverse Brake Assist and Evasive Braking Assist.
The premium style and feel will also be backed up with the high-performance powertrains. The 2020 Lincoln Aviator will employ the 3.0-liter bi-turbo V-6 in two configurations, 10-speed automatic transmission, sophisticated suspension and systems to provide the high-class and high-performance ride.
A 3.0-liter V-6 with the twin turbocharges will provide the "base" performance of 400 hp and 450 pound-feet of torque. The Grand Touring version will use the same engine in the combination with the battery-powered electric motor. The motor provides instant torque and the combined output with the V-6 engine of 450 hp and 600 lb-ft. The system includes also the 10-speed automatic transmission with the electric motor placed in transmissions housing while the battery takes the place under the floor below the passengers' area.
The ride comfort will also be the strong side of this premium model and Lincoln uses the adaptive air suspension with the camera system monitoring the road ahead and adjusting the settings in the real time. The multiple driving modes will also tailor the ride to the conditions. The base model will switch between the Normal, Conserve, Excite, Slippery, and off-road Deep Conditions mode. The plug-in hybrid version will add the Pure EV and Preserve EV modes with one prioritizing the performance while another efficiency.
The 2020 Lincoln Aviator will have the release date next summer. The price and other details, like the fuel economy will be revealed closer to the launch. The starting point should be near $50, 000.

Maple Valley wood carver creates chainsaw art
Ken Gruenes spends his retired days creating art out of tree stumps with his chainsaw.
by Kayse Angel
Friday, April 26, 2019 10:08am
Gruenes said he started chainsaw art after he retired in 2007 from the Burlington Northern Railroad.
He recalled the first time he witnessed a chainsaw carving was when he was just a little kid.
"My dad had a chainsaw shop in California. (There) was a lot of wood logging and stuff down there when I was a kid. I remember a guy and he would come into the saw shop — he was a logger — and he had bought a business. I think it was a restaurant, bar type deal, and he carved a big redwood, probably 20 feet tall maybe. And he carved a great big giant logger. I mean it was huge," Gruenes explained.
One of the first chainsaw art projects Gruenes said he worked on was a bench for the Hobart Cemetery. He also donated another bench to the Maple Valley Cemetery.
Gruenes wouldn't say he's perfected the art of carving wood just yet.
"I don't know if I've mastered it," he said with a chuckle.
One of the whole reasons he got into carving was because he wanted to buy a piece of art from a chainsaw artist, but couldn't afford it.
"I thought, 'well I'll carve my own,' and I started messing around that way and that just turned into what it is now," Gruenes said.
He said he gets some sculpture ideas from watching carving competitions in Ocean Shores.
"I love watching them and I pick up stuff. I watch them and I get a lot of my ideas from that," he said.
According to Gruenes, a couple of years ago, he got a call from contractors for Puget Sound Energy asking if they could cut down the trees in front of his property because they were in the way of a power line.
His response: "Go ahead and leave some stumps for me."
It took him a while, but Gruenes has finally gotten around to doing what he wanted to do in the first place — carve the stumps.
Each stump is different in its own way and include carvings of eagles and bears. These carved stumps sit in front of a property that once belonged to Gruenes' grandparents, he said.
Gruenes said when he got out of the service, he moved from California to Maple Valley to live with his parents and his grandmother in 1971. He said he's stuck around for so long because he has family over here and he met his wife here as well.
Gruenes said he doesn't think he'll ever compete in a carving competition because "it's a young man's game."

One of our hidden 'multitudes' is the group of over 3700 chartered psychologists with practising certificates who do not belong toa Division and therefore do not necessarily have access to an adjectival title such as 'occupational' or 'educational'. I havehad quite a volume of correspondence from individuals who are in this position. They area group who are without lobbyists internally because they do not have a voice through a Division or a Section, and they are therefore without formal representation within our structures. However, we have been keepingthe interests of this group in mind in our deliberations about statutory regulation.
on statutory regulation has been progressed through the meetings of the Representative Council. These Representative Council meetings allow members from all the different component groups of the Society to come together to consider the key issues. They also allow the airing of our different opinions and a method for reaching a united voice. These discussions, and our internal consultations, have led to our current policy.
The regulator will become the body with legal responsibility for the maintenance of the official register of psychologists, the investigation of complaints about registered psychologists' conduct, and the monitoring of registered psychologists' CPD.
The impact on the Society of the changes arising from statutory regulation has been the subject of consideration by a working group, which has produced some proposals about the possible future shape of the Society. These recommendations and an explanatory paper are now being circulated via the boards, committees and member networks. This will also be available on the website. We would welcome as wide a response as possible to these proposals by 15 September. Please send your responses to Chrissie O'Rourke at the Leicester office or to [email protected].
Once the responses have been collated, they will be taken to the meeting of Representative Council on 9 October for discussion. Some changes to the Charter and Statutes of the Society are likely to be needed, which will require a ballot of members. The timetable for this is difficult to estimate as it will depend in part on the final details of the legislation for the regulatory framework.As well as entailing these internal changes for the Society, government-led regulation allows us an opportunity to move our focus away from inward-facing activities and to focus more on how we can contribute to society both in the UK and internationally. As a charitable body we must keep our aims firmly in sight. We will soon be starting to develop a new Strategic Plan for the Society to guide our activities through the next few years. We welcome your views: please become involved in the consultations about the Strategic Plan later this year.
Dr Tom Manly, of the Medical Research Council's Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit, Addenbrooke's Hospital, has been awarded the 2008 Spearman Medal for hiswork linking basic cognitive neuroscience to clinical applications.
Dr Manly came to psychology in 1990, graduating with first class honours from the Polytechnic of Central London. He went on to take an MSc in clinical psychology at University College London, followed in 2000 by a PhD at the University of London. His main areas of interest have lain in the fields of normal psychology, neuropsychology and cognitive rehabilitation.
As someone who successfully straddles the boundary between service-based research in clinical settings and basic neuroscience in academic institutions, Dr Manly has made use of his varied expertise by being active in teaching clinical psychologists in pre- and post-qualification training courses and contributing to clinical workshops in the UK and overseas. He is also a committee member of the Division of Neuropsychology.
Dr Manly's nomination highlighted how his work in pure neuroscience has informed his clinical practice, and how his clinical experience has in turn informed research.
of the task itself, which merely remind people to orientate their attention to it generally. From this work emerged an understanding that the basic processes of task performance could be modulated by a sustained top-down signal, maintaining the task goal.
Crucially, this finding was then applied by Dr Manly to the clinical setting where people with certain brain injuries, particularly those to the frontal cortex, were known to experience profound levels of disorganisation in everyday life. Dr Manly's insight was that in many cases the person's key difficulty lay in the maintenance of attention, and that simple alerting cues can help them remain focused, breaking them out of their otherwise debilitating behaviours.
The nomination also cited how Dr Manly has turned his clinical practice into a source of inspiration and information for his research, establishing a remarkable association between spatial processing and arousal. In people with unilateral spatial neglect there is a tendency to miss information from one side of space (almost always the left). This may mean they ignore people approaching them from one side, or leave one half of a plate of food untouched. People with this unilateral spatial neglect tend also to be drowsy and to have difficulty maintaining attention. Dr Manly has shown that low arousal is a causal factor in spatial bias.
Through the studies conducted with his patients he found that as arousal declines, so attention is progressively biased away from the left side of space. In his most recent work he has imaginatively applied this understanding to people with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), who despite their exuberant presentation have been found to have lowered levels of alertness. Dr Manly and his colleagues examined spatial function in children with ADHD and found that deficits in sustained attention were associated with an unusual degree of rightward bias. Though this work is at an early stage it suggests a new and potentially important understanding of ADHD and paths to remediation.
Speaking of the award, Dr Manly said: 'I am delighted to have been offered the award, both personally and for those of us working in brain injury rehabilitation. For me, good ideas tend to happen between people rather than in any individual and I am indebted to the many colleagues who have contributed to the work cited.
Patients who are dying, and their families, need well coordinated and clear communication in their final weeks. This is one of the conclusions reached by the Society in its Professional Practice Board report The Role of Psychology in End of Life Care, published in May.
The report examines many of the key issues surrounding end-of-life care, such as the appropriateness (or not) of continuing to provide active treatment and care; euthanasia and physician-assisted dying; disadvantaged dying (i.e. those who are neglected because of ignorance or prejudice) and managing staff burnout for those working in such a demanding field. The document also aims to help staff who provide end-of-life care across health and social care settings including specialist palliative care, oncology, older people services and services for people with learning difficulties.
Christine Kalus, chair of the working party that produced the report, said: 'It is apparent that people's choices about care and preferred place of death often change as they become more unwell, and staff need to take account of these changes. They also need to be sensitive to the motivations of individuals and families, which are likely to be very different as the dying person becomes more debilitated as a result of their illness or disability.

Super Eagle captain, John Obi Mikel, has assured that he and his teammates are battle-ready for Sunday's 2018 World Cup qualifying match away to Zambia.
Nigeria at the moment enjoys a better head-to-head record over Zambia and the Super Eagles are keen not just to preserve that advantage but also to start their World Cup qualification quest on a good note.
"We are all looking forward to the qualifying matches, starting with Sunday's game in Zambia. Each and every one of us knows what it means – big battles that we have to win. We are ready for the challenge," Mikel was quoted as saying in a press statement issued by the NFF.
Nigeria has won six of 16 previous matches with Zambia at international level, drawing five and losing five.
Zambia walloped Nigeria 5-1 in the first –ever encounter, a 1974 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying match in Lusaka on July 15, 1973. Nigeria's 3-2 win in the return leg in Lagos two weeks later was of no effect.
Both teams battled to a 0-0 draw in Accra at the 1978 Cup of Nations, but Zambia then gained two successive 3-0 wins over Nigeria – a friendly in Lusaka in 1981 and a group phase clash at the 1982 Africa Cup of Nations in Libya.
However, the Zambians have not beaten the Eagles in a competitive match in the past 31 years.
Nigeria edged a memorable Africa Cup of Nations final in Tunis in 1994, and then prevailed over the Zambians 5-4 on penalties after a 0-0 draw in the quarter –finals of the 2010 Cup of Nations in Angola.
None of the 16 previous clashes was a World Cup qualifying match.
After playing Zambia away on Sunday, the Eagles will host Algeria on November 12 before four more games next year.

It seems as if tempting unhealthy food choices are too easily accessible. Grocery stores often place unhealthy foods which people crave at the end of the aisle to capture your attention. The good news is that healthy eating can be learned. A first step in this direction is identifying the unhealthy eating habits and then replacing them with healthy ones. Combine this with a great workout routine and you will feel more energetic, self-confident, and live a longer more enjoyable life.
•	Preparation: A little preparation can go a long way. Simply keeping a small insulated cooler in the car and filling it with healthy food options before you go out will keep the temptation to eat fast food at bay.
•	Plan Ahead: Take some time out before heading to the grocery store to make a list of the food you will need for the week. Making a list helps to keep you focused on the healthy food choices you need instead of being distracted by the endless number of tempting unhealthy items which the store often places in big displays to capture your attention.
•	Halt: When tempted to turn to comfort food, pause to ask yourself if you are really hungry. There is a difference between physical and emotional hunger. If identified as emotional hunger, ask yourself what you are feeling.
•	Identify Emotions: Identifying emotions can put you in control instead of avoiding and stuffing the feelings.
•	Select a Healthy Emotional Release: Once identified, the emotion can be dealt with through healthy outlets such as journaling or exercise.
•	Keep Food Culprits Out of the House: If you know you have a tendency to crave certain foods such as chips or cookies, keep them out of the house. If you still crave the food, you have time to think about what you are doing on the way to the store.
•	Moderation is Key: It is important to eat all types of food in moderation. Although avoiding trigger foods is healthy, completely forbidding certain foods can actually increase the craving for that food item. A diet plan which is extremely restrictive can actually lead to binge eating of the forbidden foods.
•	Drink Water: Drinking water with your meals can help you become full quicker and not over-eat.
•	Eat Slowly: Taking the time to enjoy the food you are eating gives you the needed time for the digestive tract to begin processing the food. In this way, you are alert to the time when you get full.
•	Stop When You are Full: When you notice that your stomach is full, stop eating immediately no matter how much food is still left on the plate.
Although unhealthy food choices can taste good and satisfy temporary cravings, they contribute to health problems such as diabetes and hypertension. As you become aware of your unhealthy eating habits, you can start eating healthier with simple steps. You can begin eating in moderation, stopping the meal when you are full and selecting healthy food alternatives to replace those foods which you craved.


Sarah McLachlan was born on January 28, 1968, in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.
She curiously began experimenting with various musical instruments, including her voice, in 1973, at the age of 5. Despite her parents' desire for her to become something more "interesting" than a rock star, young Sarah continued to learn as much as she could, taking classical voice, piano and guitar lessons for several years, eventually mastering all three. Though her parents sought to block her every step towards the music industry, she had already recorded several demo tapes by the age of 16 with a new wave band called October Game, and, in 1984, she signed to fledgling record label Nettwerk Records, which was based in Vancouver. Sarah was the first artist to sign to Nettwerk, though she was soon followed by industrial music giants Skinny Puppy and Frontline Assembly, both of whom are/were also based in Vancouver. When Sarah finished school in 1987, she moved to Vancouver, which she now considers her hometown.
Her debut album, Touch, was released to critical acclaim in 1989, and got her a distribution deal with Arista Records, and quite suddenly she was everywhere; she recorded several videos that received heavy airplay on Canada's MuchMusic channel and toured Canada and parts of the USA incessantly. Touch eventually reached gold status when its 500,000th copy was sold in mid-1989, and the album was then reissued in hopes of capturing an American audience.
In 1991 Sarah released Solace, on which she showed a great leap in songwriting abilities, as it was a much more technically proficient, more flowing album than Touch had been. Solace received very wide distribution and won her an American audience, so she began touring the USA more broadly, playing to packed low- to mid-level concert halls and clubs.
Following a year-long tour in support of Solace, Sarah and her band holed themselves up in a rented house just outside of Montréal, Quebec, and begun working on the next album, which was to be her best-selling (at that time) -- Fumbling Towards Ecstasy. The Fumbling studio sessions were documented on a half-audio, half-CDROM release called The Freedom Sessions (1995), which contained acoustic versions and demos of many of the Fumbling tracks, as well as half a dozen Quicktime videos and studio outtakes for the singles from that album. Track 1 contained the data portion of the CD and couldn't be played on a CD player; you had to skip past it to get to the audio portion of the CD. This was 1995, after all, and the whole CD-plus thing was just getting started. Fumbling was released to extremely wide critical acclaim on October 23, 1993, and eventually went platinum, topping off at number 50 during its run on the Billboard album chart, where it spent nearly a year and a half.
Throughout 1996, Sarah recorded what was to be her big breakthrough, the awesome Surfacing. Its first single, "Building a Mystery," hit MTV and MuchMusic like a tonne of bricks in June, 1997, and suddenly you couldn't escape Sarah's voice on the radio, her newly made-over image on TV, or pictures of her in magazines.
Capitalizing on her new-found global success, 1997 found Sarah organizing the first Lilith Fair, which toured the USA touting only female acts (more specifically: bands fronted by women, some with male musicians). Sarah and others, such as Heather Nova, Paula Cole, The Indigo Girls, Lisa Loeb and Natalie Merchant were a part of Lilith Fair, and though they've remained mainstays on it through its various incarnations, many others have been added as well. Lilith Fair went on hiatus for all of the 2000s before returning in 2010 with a larger lineup.
In 1999, with the close of the last Lilith Fair until 2010, Sarah came out with Mirrorball, a greatest hits compilation, which contained (among other songs) her rendition of "Gloomy Sunday," a song that has been covered by literally dozens of artists since Billie Holiday immortalized it in the 1930s. In 1999, 2000 and 2001 she contributed to various movie and TV soundtracks, most notably the track "When She Loved Me" to the Toy Story 2 OST and "Full of Grace" for Buffy The Vampire Slayer. Also recorded around this time was a cover of the XTC atheistic classic "Dear God," which ended up on the Rarities & B-Sides compilation. Sandwiched between all her successes in the late 1990s, she also recorded a track with the Frontline Assembly side project Delerium, entitled "Silence," which also received moderate airplay on modern rock stations across the continent, despite its industrial bent. Also, apart from The Freedom Sessions, she has released two separate video collections on DVD. In between all this, she was made a recipient of the Order of Canada, which is more or less Canada's version of the British OBE.
In February 1997, Sarah and her drummer, Ashwin Sood, eloped and were eventually married. On April 6, 2002, Sarah and Ash had their first child, a girl named India Ann Sushil. The delivery came just a few months after the end of a recording session for Sarah's new album, Afterglow, which was released (after a significant delay) in late 2003 on Arista Records and Nettwerk Records. The title track was also released as a single a number of months prior to the release of the album.
Another daughter, named Taja Summer, followed in June 22, 2007. Sarah and Ashwin separated in 2008. In 2013, she and former NHL player Geoff Courtnall began dating.

Americans Were Already Primed To Distrust Elections. Then Came Iowa.
| Aucun commentaire
When the Iowa caucuses went to hell in a handbasket last week, they probably took some of Americans' last morsels of trust in the political system down too. But when I asked political scientists and psychologists about the impact of the bungled caucuses on overall political cynicism, they, by and large, weren't particularly concerned. The vast majority of voters probably won't care all that much, they said; instead, these experts are more worried about the indirect effects. Long after the shoddy apps have been forgotten, mistrust and bitterness could still be trickling down from political elites to everyone else.
We're already primed to think something's wrong with our voting system. Even before the caucuses, more than 40 percent of Americans felt the country wasn't prepared to keep the November elections secure, and 45 percent thought it was likely that not all votes were going to be counted. Partisans of a losing candidate are less likely to believe their vote was counted correctly, while winners get a boost in electoral confidence that can last for months.
But the Iowa debacle is important because it caused political elites to be as openly distrustful as some voters already are. Democratic National Committee Chairman Tom Perez tweeted an exasperated-sounding call for a recanvass of the results. Congresswoman and presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard railed against the lack of transparency and integrity in the caucuses. Former Vice President Joe Biden's campaign has also questioned the integrity of the process. And President Trump's two eldest sons both claimed that the caucuses had been rigged. (There is no evidence to suggest the caucus results were altered — just that the reporting process was run incompetently.)
These are all people at the top of the political influence pyramid, who have fans who share their political ideology and who have the media attention necessary to make their opinions widely known. The public doesn't just thoughtlessly follow what these political elites say, of course, but study after study has shown that what they say does matter.
For example, one 2018 paper used Trump's campaign rhetoric about Mexican immigrants to conduct a natural experiment in how elites shape public opinion. The study compared the results of a fortuitously timed Gallup poll that asked about immigrants and immigration. Some of the poll was conducted before Trump's June 16, 2015, speech where he called immigrants "rapists" and criminals, and some of the poll was conducted afterwards. The study found that public opinion against immigration hardened after the speech — the share of Americans who wanted to see less immigration jumped from 25 percent the day of the speech to 39 percent 10 days later.
"How does democracy work? It works when losers believe there's been a fair election," said Rick Hasen, a professor of law and political science at the University of California, Irvine. "And that's something that we've taken for granted in this country for a long time."
But it's becoming more acceptable for political elites to challenge the outcomes of elections and make claims of fraud or outright electoral theft. Trump, after all, spent most of his 2016 campaign alleging that the election he eventually won would be stolen from him.
That's a problem for the future of democracy, said Eitan Hersch, a professor of political science at Tufts University and past FiveThirtyEight contributor, and unlike a lot of other political problems this country faces, it's one that both parties are engaging in. "Both parties have an incentive to rile their base with discussion of elections being stolen," he told me. "And that's probably bad for the system if people increasingly believe elections aren't fair." That seems to be what is happening.
What's more, researchers are starting to suspect that the way outrage and accusations of stolen elections trickle down might do more than indirectly reduce trust — it could also lead the most level-headed voters to disengage from politics.
This is a fairly new idea, rooted in attempts to better understand a particular demographic of American voters — people who call themselves independents but really aren't. Although the Pew Research Center has found that 38 percent of Americans say they're independents (up from 33 percent in 1994), the vast majority of them are actually "leaners" — people who cop to having at least some level of party affiliation. Only 7 percent of independents are actually independent. The rest behave pretty similarly to partisans: Their beliefs and votes mostly track with those of their sorta favored party.
Yanna Krupnikov, a professor of political science at Stony Brook University, has been studying this demographic, trying to figure out what its deal is. She's come to the conclusion that these folks are not so much noncommittal as annoyed and disaffected. For example, while leaners mostly act like partisans, they do report lower rates of voting than partisans. They're also more likely to have negative opinions about both parties and dislike the candidates they have to choose from at all levels of government. Leaners may vote the same as partisans (when they do vote), but they aren't happy about it.
And Krupnikov thinks that unhappiness stems from being sick and tired of hearing the complaints of partisans — particularly the minority of partisans who are heavily emotionally invested in the minutiae of politics. These partisans matter, said Krupnikov and others, because they're the ones listening to political elites and helping relay elites' ideas to the masses. But often times, the masses don't want to hear about it.
When leaners hear about what happened in Iowa from news-obsessed partisans, "it might persuade you that politics is about being angry and that politics isn't for you," she said. "People become more likely to call themselves independents when they are reminded that partisans are constantly bickering with each other."
Krupnikov's fear is that the outrage coming from elites and rank-and-file partisans could lead to more disaffected Americans who vote less and are less engaged in the political system. That concerns Hasen, too. There are studies that suggest the people most emotionally invested in politics — the ones who are seeking out the most information about it — are the ones most likely to be misled by inaccurate information. America needs the influence of the people who are less excitable, he told me.
The risk of Iowa is that the partisans shouting about it will drive them away.

Kia orakoutou. I'm Sarah Gallagher I work at the University of Otago but what I'm going to be talking with you about today isn't anything to do with my day job. It is an all-consuming collection that I've been researching for over ten years. I think it's worth doing because it depicts a unique and ephemeral expression of student culture in Dunedin. Dunedin, for those who don't know, has our oldest university and has a campus environment like no other in the country where a great part of the surrounding suburb of North Dunedin is rental accommodation. The majority of our students come from out of town and this is their first experience from living away from home.
The Dunedin Flat Names Project is a collection of names that have been painted, drawn, stencilled, spray painted onto a variety of objects: bits of board, fence palings, beer boxes, ] head boards, surfboards, whiteboards and skateboards. They are flats with names like: The Cock and Swallow, Libido's Bar and Grill, Footrot Flats, Hogwartz, The Shrieking Shack, The Changing Rooms, Hyde Street RSA, The Hilton, Bedrock, Sifta Rosa, The Lodge, DSIR (The Department of Student Inebriation Research), The Jolly Rodger, The Brick Shithouse, The Heap, The Manor, The Wardrobe, Bonnie Doon, Beaver Lodge, The Greasy Beaver Lodge, The Muff Inn … and as you can see here, The Beehive. Take a good look at this sign.
Now, notice anything different? The signs change but the names often stay the same. Named flats are ever present in Dunedin, largely they follow the season of the academic year, but there are some that have taken root, there are several that have been around for quite some time. This started out as a very analogue project for my MLIS it grew from a collection of photos taken on a Pentax ME Super, to a digital camera, smartphone and Facebook community through which I that started collecting stories and creating a context for this rag tag collection of named flats. It's also involved researching the collections of libraries and archives, conducting personal interviews, and surveying the Facebook community. My objective is to create an environment to house the photos, stories and context around these flats, long after they have gone but this has had it's difficulties. The main challenges have been the ever-changing digital environment and trying to find a thing that meets all these needs. I adopted some tools early on, like Flickr, and Facebook back in 2007, obviously they have changed and this has caused some issues.
This slide gives you some idea of the size of the problem. It represents my attempt using Google maps to plot the locations of the named flats over time and link these to images in Flickr and the relevant community in Facebook… but it's not ideal and the result is messy. I'm still looking for the perfect solution. So imagine you're new to Dunedin, you might be a first year student like I was back in 1991, and you move into a flat and name it. It seems like a cool thing to do, you kind of do it subconsciously because it's in your environment, you walk past these flats every day as you walk through campus down Castle, or Leith, Hyde, Clyde, Dundas and Howe Street, you just don't know that this has been going on for a long long long time, since before you were born, before your parents and grandparents were born, maybe even your great grandparents …
The oldest flat I've come across from the 1930s, a bunch of divinities students along with trainee doctors dentists and teachers who didn't want to live with grumpy landladies and couldn't afford halls used their entrepreneurial spirit to club together enough money for the rental of a house and a housekeeper. According to one of the original Bachites, whom I've corresponded with, here were only 2 rules at the Bach: you had to be poor, and you had to piss straight. They created a home – the flat had a name, a name board, a photo album, a trencher for graduation, traditions, and evening prayers. They also had letter head. Naming the flat was a big enough deal to design a coat of arms, and have it printed on letter head. There is evidence of flats having letterhead into the 1970s and of course today some have a Facebook Page.
Some also had personalised phone numbers, like Smersh HQ (1960s) which was named after the KGB head quarters in the then popular James Bond novels by Ian Flemming. They tricked the telephone company into publishing their telephonenumbr in the phone book under the name, SMERSH, Harold Quentin.
Similarly, 30 year later, Moes, on Clyde Street took advantage of the new name numbers available through Telecom. Like Smersh HQ before it, Moe's took it's name from a popular culture source. In this case, The Simpsons.
Moe's is an example of a flat that has had many sign changes since 1997. No matter how many times it's removed by landlords or property management, it returns. This latest sign, a personal favourite – reminds me of Bart's skateboard. Flats like Beehive and Moes have become legends in Dunedin, they are sought after because students want to live somewhere with a meaning. They want a home, they want an identity and they want to be part of the Dunedin story. And that's what I think is at the heart of naming flats.
To conclude, I want to show you this image. It's an illustration from the Orientation magazine of 2010. It depicts the intersection of Frederick and Clyde Streets – for those of you that know Dunedin you'll notice there's something not quite right about it. This really sums up for me what naming flats and creating homes is all about. What's interesting about this scene is that it's an imagined landscape, cobbled together from a collection of well-known flats from Clyde St, Dundas Street, and Hyde Street. I spoke with the designer about this image and she said it was created more for the parents of the students that year than for the students themselves. Perhaps it was to welcome them home. Thank you.

MOSCOW: VANISHING REALITY
Vladimir Dubossarsky & Alexander Vinogradov
Museum of Moscow,
Proviantsky Warehouse, Moscow
www.mosmuseum.ru
Museum of Moscow, Triumph Gallery and RDI company present an exhibition by Vladimir Dubossarsky and Alexander Vinogradov titled Moscow: Vanishing Reality. The exhibition is dedicated to Moscow and its opening has been timed to coincide with Moscow's City Day on September 5, 2014.
In the artists' works, a Moscow of various epochs is opened up before spectators, from the end of the 19th century up to nowadays. Each of the exhibition's sections is devoted to a separate epoch, but here we are dealing with the identificationof an imaginary or illusory capital in which one can see fragments of a past way of life, nonexistent views of the city, shots from black-and-white movies, pieces of pop culture, naïve city design and agitprop. This is not a retrospective gaze, but reconstructing onewhere the object that is being reconstructed is not the actual Moscow, but a memory of it that comprises not only the city itself but also the fantasies, hopes and fears of its residents.
The exhibition will become an organic part of Museum of Moscow, located in the Proviantsky Warehouse, a monument of Moscow Empire-style architecture, designed by the architect Vasily Stasov in the 1830s. The large paintings, drawings, and installations have been created especially for this museum.
Dubossarsky and Vinogradov have been working together since the mid-1990s. On large canvases the artists combine images of pop culture and advertisment with genre painting, describing the life of the heroes of our time. In the project Danger! Museum (2009), the artists presented the secret life of an imaginary museum, while the series of works On the Block (2010) depicted popular Russian and Hollywood stars as average residents of Moscow suburbs. Within their own retrospective, Dubossarsky and Vinogradov presented to the public their unfinished works from various periods rather than their renowned works. In their new exhibition, the artists present a multi-faceted image of an ideal Moscow, where history and the modernity are intermingled.

Warehousing systems upgraded at Sto
Storage and retrieval machines from DAMBACH Lagersysteme now in use at Sto.
Sto SE & Co. KGaA, based in Stühlingen in south-west Germany, produces thermal insulation systems, paints, plasters, and lacquers. The warehouse has been modernized in order to guarantee plant availability and productivity targets. That work required Sto to invest in four new storage and retrieval machines (SRM) from DAMBACH Lagersysteme.
Working together with SIEMENS as general contractor, the new DAMBACH MONO SRMs were installed as part of a retrofit project.
DAMBACH was appointed to dismantle the old SRMs and their running rails and to supply and install the new SRMs, which were lifted into the building via roof openings. Thanks to the modular design of the 33 m high SRMs, the work could be completed quickly and efficiently.
It was possible to configure the MONO units ideally to suit the existing warehouse situation. The rated load of 2000 kg required per SRM was achieved with a single-mast solution. DAMBACH's own single-deep telescopic forks ensure trouble-free storage and retrieval of pallets across 8280 storage positions.
This modernization has not only improved plant availability, but also helped to secure the economic viability of the company.
Follow DAMBACH Lagersysteme on YouTube and LinkedIn.

I am taking 2 fitting classes from Craftsy. Both are by Kathleen Cheetham.
4 changeable patterns. I am making a button up blouse.
This is the blouse , I will be making. It is called, "shapely blouse"
basic blouse , and I can see lots of rotation with it.
already cut it out, and am now in the sewing process.
I would challenge myself to a pair of pants.. But... my plans changed.
company. This pattern is an indie pattern company, and new to me..
Very nice pattern Judy. Can't wait to see it sewn up!
Thank you Nakisha. I am working on it now..Hopefully , will get photos soon..
We're a little warmer here today, but not by much!!! Why is it spring/summer sewing seems much more fun than winter sewing?! Looks like a nice blouse and look forward to seeing it finished!
Oh Lisa... I really like spring sewing.. pretty spring colors, Cute dresses/skirts.. I think in winter..you have to have too many layers.
Looks like an interesting book. Looking forward to seeing your blouse.
THank you Bea Jay, The book is great, Kathleen Cheetham really explains the fitting issues.. The only draw back for me is..she drafts her patterns for the pettie [5 ft 2 in person].. I am 5 ft 7 in..SO, I definitely have to do some lengthening.ha. Sewing on the blouse now..How are you doing?
I should MAGAM. I;d like to hear how your fitting classes are progressing too. I'll be looking for your new shirt. Happy new year!
Hi Stacie, Oh yes..Please join us on MAGAM .It is a very nice group of ladies.. and not a strick format.. Sarahliz is doing it. She is super sweet. We are now doing it on private facebook forum.. Will send you a friend request, if you like? Happy New year to you too.
I am sure the blouse will be pretty.
I don't envy you the cold - do your fitting in a warm room :). The blouses look really pretty, it will be interesting to hear how your Craftsy courses help.
Will do a post on the craftsy fitting classes.. They have been fantastic.
Thank you Diya.. I will be posting the blouse on the blog real soon.

It looks like you are up to some really good things Judy. Can't wait to see the finished product!
Thank you Cathe,..Hope to post some photos soon..
I have the perfect fitted blouse that I like to wear when I have to testify in court for my job. I used to know how to take garments apart and make patterns out of them to make another of the same garment, but it's been many years and I don't want to ruin this blouse.
I have taken things apart and made a pattern too..But, it's not fun, ha.
I love these patterns.. Really fit well.. [They are for petite -5 ft 2 people... and I am 5 ft 7in ... So, I have to lengthened them.. but that is no problem..
