Equality, Diversity and Cohesion
Equalities Information
We use information and data when preparing service delivery and policy to ensure that we understand how people of different groups (or protected characteristics) may be impacted.
Under the Equality Act 2010, all public authorities have both general and specific duties. Public authorities covered by the specific duties of the Act, like Blaby District Council, must publish information to demonstrate their compliance with the 'general duty'. This includes information relating to people who share a relevant protected characteristic. This applies to our employees (as an authority with more than 150 staff) and people affected by our policies and practices (for example our service users).
The Disability Confident scheme supports employers to make the most of the talents disabled people can bring to your workplace.
Disability Confident:
Challenges attitudes towards disability
Increases understanding of disability
Removes barriers to disabled people and those with long-term health conditions
Ensures that disabled people have the opportunities to fulfil their potential and realise their aspirations
Blaby District Council are currently at level two as of March 2020.
We are required to carry out gender pay reporting. This shows the difference between the average earnings of men and women in our organisation. We can use these results to assess the levels of gender equality in our workplace and the balance of male and female employees at different levels.
It is important to note that gender pay reporting is different from equal pay. Equal pay deals with the pay differences between men and women who carry out the same job, similar job or work of equal value. It is unlawful to pay people unequally because they are a man or a woman. The gender pay gap shows the difference in the average pay between all men and women in a workforce. Our most recent results can be found by downloading the Gender Pay Gap Report below.
The term modern slavery covers a whole range of exploitation. It can take many forms including the trafficking of people, forced labour, servitude and slavery. The signs of modern slavery are often hidden making it difficult to identify potential victims and they can be any age, gender, ethnicity or nationality.
The Council adopted its own modern slavery statement in November 2018. This is reviewed annually, the latest version can be found at the bottom of this page.
Discrimination and Hate Crime
Hate incidents could be physical, verbal or written abuse. They take many forms but are essentially about someone being targeted because they are believed to be different, because of age, disability, gender identity, race, religion/belief or sexual orientation. If you have been a victim, or if you have witnessed or become aware of a hate incident, please tell us by visiting the Hate Crime page.
The International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance's Working Definition of Antisemitism (IHRA) says "Antisemitism is a certain perception of Jews, which may be expressed as hatred toward Jews. Rhetorical and physical manifestations of antisemitism are directed toward Jewish or non-Jewish individuals and/or their property, toward Jewish community institutions and religious facilities".
The Council is committed to combatting hate crime in all its forms. The IHRA Working Definition of Antisemitism was adopted by Blaby District Council in November 2020. Our Statement can be found below.
A profile of the population characteristics of the District helps us to understand key issues facing the community. We use a variety of sources including the 2011 census and data from the Office of National Statistics, and Equality monitoring information is generally collected on forms you fill in. You can find the Blaby District Profile information available to download at the bottom of the page.
Equality monitoring information
This is generally collected on forms you fill in. This information tells us who is and is not using our services, who our customers are and whether we are meeting their needs. The information helps us to improve and develop our services, identify barriers to access and will also highlight gaps to enable us to target services, to ensure everyone gets fair and equal access.
Employee Data
An equality profile of staff helps us to understand key issues about the workforce. We also use this data to inform decisions and policies affecting employees. We work to ensure that this data is comprehensive, and an equality profile of our employees can be found in the Annual Report.
Equality Impact and Needs Assessment
This Assessment provides data for us to use when making decisions and forming policies, to assess the impact on different groups of people and to examine customer needs. An assessment of this type will be carried out on new service policies as they are developed and, over time, on existing ones. Assessments ensure that any possible effects are considered and evaluated and, if necessary, an action plan created to reduce or remove any negative impact.
If you wish to see a particular Equality Impact Needs Assessment, please contact us with your request by using the contact form at the bottom of this page.
We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website. Our Accessibility Statement explains what you should be able to do to make the website easier to use and how we are trying to make documents as fully accessible as possible.
The Council can make documents available, on request, in another language or format (large print, Braille or on audiotape). We can also provide translation services if required, for help with completing forms or attending meetings with Council officers. This website can also be translated. This free service is offered by Google and is not carried out by a professional translator.
Customer and Residents Consultation
We are committed to engaging and consulting with our local communities, wherever appropriate, in regard to our plans, strategies and policies. We welcome feedback and comments from people regardless of their age, ethnicity, gender, religion, disability and/or sexual orientation. Details of future consultations will be available on our website as they take place.
Equality and Human Rights Policy
We take our general public duties very seriously. These are to:
Eliminate discrimination, harassment, victimisation and other conduct that is unlawful under the Act
Advance equality of opportunity between people who share a protected characteristic and those who do not
Foster good relations between people who share a protected characteristic and those who do not
We will pay due regard to the nine protected characteristics:
Gender re-assignment
Ethnicity and Race
Marital status and civil partnership
Pregnancy and maternity
We are determined to continually develop our equality and diversity agenda, not just to meet our increasing statutory responsibilities in this area, but because it is vital to our aim of delivering excellence and continuous improvement in all our services. This is set out in our Equality and Human Rights Policy, which can be downloaded below.
The Equality and Human Rights Commission
The Equality and Human Right Commission are committed to the vision of a modern Britain where everyone is treated with dignity and respect, and we all have an equal chance to succeed. Their aim is to act as a catalyst for change and improvement in equality and human rights.
The Commission has a statutory role to promote and monitor human rights, as well as to protect, enforce and promote equality across the nine "protected" characteristics listed in the Equality and Human Rights Policy tab. It also has a role in making sure people understand the law and uphold it.
The Equality Act 2010 provides a modern, single legal framework with clear, streamlined law to more effectively tackle disadvantage and discrimination. The remit given to the Commission by the government is to enforce and promote equality.

Twenty-one year-old McLaren Automotive Factory Driver Ben Barnicoat got off to a perfect start in the opening British GT Championship weekend at Oulton Park, winning the first race of the season in the 570S GT4 of customer team track-club, in turn scoring the track-only Sports Series model its first victory of 2018 in global competition.
Barnicoat drove perfectly in the treacherous conditions on Bank Holiday Monday morning, as heavy rain prior to the race made it a particularly intense affair for the drivers, negotiating the tight, twisty Cheshire circuit.
Adam Balon, Barnicoat's teammate in the track-club 570S GT4, started the 60-minute race P10 in the hotly-contested GT4 division. In the early stages of the race, Balon was immediately on the attack, showcasing the capabilities of the 570S GT4 in changeable conditions, moving up to P7 before the pit window opened at the halfway mark.
The team opted to pit early, allowing Barnicoat to maximise his time in the car, in the unpredictable conditions. After the pit cycle had shaken out, Barnicoat had secured the lead of the GT4 class, and then managed the gap over the chasing pack for the remainder of his stint. The result sees track-club take an early lead in the points standings from a competitive grid of 22 entries.
Adding to the successes of the opening race of the season for McLaren, following post-race scrutineering a penalty for a pit-lane infringement was handed to the second-place team, making it a McLaren 1-2. Finishing P2 was the #4 Tolman Motorsport McLaren 570S GT4 driven by Charlie Fagg and Michael O'Brien of the McLaren Automotive Driver Development Programme. The pair had enjoyed strong qualifying, which saw them start their debut British GT race on the front row before securing a hard-earned podium.
Three further McLarens rounded out the top six in a successful weekend for the 570S GT4, with the #501 Balfe Motorsport example crossing the line P4, ahead of the Tolman Motorsport duo as the #56 of McLaren Factory Driver Joe Osborne and David Pattison finished P5 ahead of the #5 car driven by the McLaren Driver Development Programme duo of Jordan Albert and Lewis Proctor.
McLaren customer team Equipe Verschuur took pole for both races with their 570S GT4, only to lose them due to a procedural technicality, however, they recovered from the back to score points in Race 1.
Unfortunately, heavy rain forced the organisers to abandon the weekend-closing race.
The next round of the 2018 British GT Championship is set to take place at Rockingham Motor Speedway at the end of the month, from April 28-29.
"This weekend's British GT Championship opener at Oulton Park was an incredibly important one not only for our customer teams, but for McLaren as a brand. Winning in the UK's most prestigious GT championship in the first race of the season, showcased the 570S GT4's capabilities up against one of the most diverse GT4 grids in the world.

A twist on an American classic but just as tasty.
Put some clingfilm on your work surface and place the chicken breasts on top, spaced apart. Season with salt and pepper. Cover with another piece of clingfilm. Bash the chicken until approx 1cm thick.
Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large frying pan over a medium to high heat. Carefully lower in the chicken breasts into the pan and cook for about 3 mins on each side, until they are completely cooked through.
Once cooked, take the chicken breasts out of the pan, transfer them to a separate plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
Add the remaining tbsp of oil to the pan, add the shallots, mushrooms and thyme and cook for 2-3 mins, stirring regularly, until wilted.
Turn up the pan to a high heat, add the alcohol and allow it to bubble for 2-3 mins. Add the mustard, and creme fraiche and simmer for another minute.
Season to taste and add the chicken breasts to heat through for 1-2 mins. Serve!


You are the other half of me and with you my soul feels complete.
There is nothing worse than being without you.
You are my home, my life, my everything.
My life would be meaningless without you. I love you.

Q: TFS Get Latest Version History I know we can get the change set history from TFS easily but i want to get the history of 'get latest version' request from TFS.
So my question is that is there any way to see a log of who and when any of the team member made a 'get latest version' request on TFS?

A: There is no way to achieve this on Visual Studio Team Services (was Team Foundation Service).
If you describe what you are trying to achieve then maybe there is another way to achieve this.

A: TFS keeps a command log that keeps track of this, but I believe it only keeps the last 7 days of commands.  I know some teams setup a SQL job that exports the command log every few days so they can keep more than 7 days of history.
You can see the Command log by going to the URL: http:/tfsserver:port/tfs/_oi
You can also query the SQL table tbl_Command, although this is not officially supported.

Eva Magdalena Andersson (Uppsala, Suècia, 23 de gener de 1967) és una economista i política sueca. Des del 4 de novembre de 2021 és líder del Partit Socialdemòcrata de Suècia. Va ser ministra de Finances de 2014 a 2021. Va ser nomenada primera ministra de Suècia des del 24 de novembre de 2021 però no va arribar a prendre possessió i va ser elegida de nou el 29 del mateix mes prenent possessió el dia 30 de novembre de 2021.

Educació
Durant els seus anys a l'institut, estudià ciències socials a l'Escola catedràtica d'Uppsala, on es graduà el 1987 amb onze cincs, dos quatres i un dos en el diploma.

Després d'acabar l'institut es mudà a Estocolm per continuar a l'Escola d'Econòmiques d'Estocolm de la qual es graduà el 1992 i es convertí en economista civil. Continuà estudiant més tard com a doctorand en economia nacional a la mateixa universitat entre 1992 i 1995, però abandonà abans d'acabar. Durant el semestre de tardor del 1994 estudià a Viena (Àustria) mentre que durant la primavera del 1995 ho feu a la Universitat Harvard (EUA). De jove fou nedadora d'elit.

Carrera
Andersson fou una experta política del 1996 al 1998, cap de planificació del Comitè del Primer Ministre del 1998 al 2004 i Secretària d'Estat al Departament de Finances del 2004 al 2006. Durant el període de 2005 a 2009 fou membre de la junta del laboratori d'idees Policy Network del Partit Socialdemòcrata (S).

Del 2007 al 2009 també fou consellera per la presidenta dels socialdemòcrates, Mona Sahlin, i entre del 2009 i 2012 directora d'Skatteverket, l'agència pública de taxació. Andersson fou nomenada el febrer de 2012 com a portaveu econòmica per Stefan Löfven. El 29 de setembre de 2014 esdevingué membre del Parlament i quatre dies després prengué possessió com a Ministra de Finances.

A finals del 2020, Andersson fou nomenada també com a presidenta del Comitè IMF del Fons Monetari Internacional (FMI). És la primera dona a presidir el càrrec i una de les poques sueques amb un estatus elevat dins de l'organització. També fou nominada com a Ministra de Finances de la Unió Europea a partir del 2021.

L'octubre de 2021, va ser nomenada primera secretària del Partit dels Treballadors Socialdemòcrates de Suècia, la qual cosa la va convertir en la segona dona a liderar el partit. El 24 de novembre de 2021, va ser elegida primera ministra de Suècia després de la renúncia de Stefan Löfven. Tanmateix no va arribar a prendre possessió del càrrec

. Aquell mateix dia, el Parlament suec havia de votar els pressupostos estatals. La cambra va rebutjar els que havia presentat la coalició de govern, formada per socialdemòcrates i verds, donant el vist-i-plau als de l'oposició. Això va causar la ruptura del pacte de govern dels Verds i la renuncia d'Andersson.

Després de negociacions, Magdalena Andersson va ser elegida de nou el 29 de novembre de 2021 i va prendre possessió el dia 30. És la primera dona que ha estat president del govern suec.

Vida privada
Andersson està casada amb Richard Friberg, professor de l'Escola d'Econòmiques d'Estocolm.

"Success is a lousy teacher. It seduces smart people into thinking they can;t lose."
-Bill Gates
Ciber Files for Bankruptcy
NA & India Asset Value ≃ $50 million
EV/LTM Revenue N/A
EV/LTM EBITDA N/A
Transaction Facts
Defaulting on its outstanding $28.5 million loan to Wells Fargo, IT consulting firm Ciber Inc. (NYSE:CBR) announced today that it had, along with its certain U.S. subsidiaries, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection with the United States Bankruptcy Court in the District of Delaware.
Ciber has a commitment for up to $41 million in debtor-in-possession (DIP) financing to help maintain its U.S. operations during the process.
Cap Gemini S.A. (EPA:CAP), an IT consulting firm headquartered in Paris, extended a buyout offer of $50 million for Ciber's operations in North America and India, which generated $275 million in revenue. Pending more competitive bids, Ciber is poised to take the offer from its stalking horse purchaser.
The New York Stock Exchange announced today that it suspended trading of Ciber's stock and is in the process of delisting the stock.
Integration on the Horizon
Piece by Piece: Ciber sold off its European business to various buyers throughout the past two years. It sold off its Dutch and Norwegian units to management consulting company Manpower Group in August and sold its Swedish subsidiary to service provider Bouvet in September. It also agreed to sell its German and Danish subsidiaries, and the majority of its French operations, to IT services firm Allgeier for $8.8 million in February, in the same month it agreed to sell its Spanish business to Manpower. In March, it announced an agreement to sell its Infor Practice to software company Infor.
Global Ambitions: Capgemini seeks to gain a stronger foothold in the North American market, where 30% of its total revenue now comes from. As its strategic acquirement in July 2015 of $1.3 billion solution provider iGate contributed to its North American footprint, Capgemini is pursuing strategic opportunities that could help expand its client reach.
The Right Fit: Ciber had other options it was exploring, but ultimately decided that filing for bankruptcy and entering into an agreement with Capgemini was the best course of action. Earlier in March, solution provider Ameri100, which owns 5.5 percent of Ciber, made an offer to acquire the company. But now it seems that only a higher bid offer could take Ciber into a different direction. Should Capgemini win the bidding process as expected, the transaction should close by the end of the second quarter this year.

I explained last time that during my trip to Bardi I had a mis-firing engine when the Dinoplex was switched to "normale" while on the "emergenza" setting all was fine. Well, "all was fine" so it seemed but in reality all was NOT fine!
I started my analysis of the problem by going straight to the expert - Adrian Le Hanne of www.dinoplex.org - who has proved to be very knowledgeable and helpful. After an exchange of questions, photos and a diagram of my existing setup Adrian explained that first and foremost I have the wrong coil. I have a BN 200 L model which was used for the previous points-only setup, while I should have a BZR 205 A model which has a ballast resistor on top (see pictures below). To make this work together with the Dinoplex someone has rewired everthing, changing the polarity of the coil, so that in reality the actual Dinoplex internals DON'T ever get used. This may be because they don't work and someone was bypassing the system - at this stage I don't know. What I do know is that in the "emergenza" setting (points-only) the car works and the rev counter behaves correctly. In the "normale" setting the points are still being used but this time a very high voltage (580 V) is being pushed to the coil, distributor resistor, rev counter and wiring making it dangerous to say the least. The rev counter was bouncing around in this setup - and no wonder!
On Adrian's advice I have disconnected the rev counter altogether and have two choices: 1) Get hold of a correct coil and then see if the Dinoplex unit actually works or not. 2) Substitute the Dinoplex and coil for a modern replacement.
I like the idea of originality, but also would like the car to improve so I am going to plump for replacing the Dinoplex internals with a modern Bosch unit which sits nicely in the original casing. This also means getting a corresponding Bosch high performance coil and I am looking at ordering them now although it's a bit tricky here in Italy as everyone is going off on holiday and shutting down until September!
An example of what I am going to be doing can be seen here where Fred of Le Blog Dino has done the same although he went a step further and installed an optical distributor system as well.


Trouble with ROTEL RDV 1040 DVD Player.
if it doesnt read any kind of dvd discs at all it only means you have been rip off. It happened to my sony dvd player that I bought from this website. I tested it and it only reads cd or audio cd. Good thing my couzin fixes electronics, He checked on the lens and it turned out that the lens has been replaced with an audio/cd lens like the one we use for our car stereo. Too bad!!!
They are indeed beautiful machines...!!
Blue-ray Disc Player BD-E5400?. playing a movie when it stopped about 2/3 thru. It still had audio but the picture was frozen. I cleaned the disc twice & changed discs with no effect.
Hello Ernest, I'm going to think that you have a Vizio Smart TV; (only happens when using SmartCast?) In this case it is a variant to perform a Factory Reset, it is very likely that it will be restored to normality.
Anyway, you should check the Moden or Router (if you have it) connection does not seem to be the application, but as if it were connectivity problems because in Vizio SmartCast mode is included in the included applications.
I leave a link to follow the procedure to factory reset.
Personally I do not pay for defective or damaged items. I always return for a refund or exchange for a new one.Put your big girl pants on on and return it.
There is something short inside the circuit board, may be a shorted transistor or so. Your TV need a through check up. Contact any service technician. Products powered by electricity should be serviced or repaired only by experienced professional technicians. Any attempt to service or repair the product by anyone else could result in serious injury or death. If you are not familiar with electronics, do not attempt to repair. Whether you suffer fatal electrical shock. Instead, contact the nearest service centre.
Use code search on your Star URC to find something that works. If a search through all codes stored in the URC fails, try a different one.
What is the universal remote code for viano tv?
Use code search on your One For All remote control to find something that works. If a search through all codes stored in the remote control fails, you may have to try a different universal remote control. all universal remote controls do not contain all possible codes.
How to connect to coaxial cable tv input?

I have a Magnavox tv and when u turn it on there is no picture. Just colors. I do not have a remote so how can i fix this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
They are available on Amazon, eBay and specialist retailers like this.
Then you can access settings and check why you have lost the picture. You may have lost Source, or the television may need specialist repair.

Phone "Completely went off" – Abortion clinic owner boasts about performing large number of abortions
By Right to Life UK
Simon Snook, an owner of abortion clinics in New Zealand, has boasted about ending the lives of more babies through his new '0800 dial an abortion' service than expected, saying that in the first two weeks of its launch the new service "completely went off".
Following the introduction of one of the most extreme abortion laws in the world, permitting the abortion of babies de-facto on demand up to birth, the Labour Government, led by Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern, partnered with Dr. Simon Snook and Family Planning New Zealand to launch a nationwide 'DIY' abortion scheme called 'Decide'.
The 'Decide' scheme allows women and girls to call a freephone '0800' number and have abortion drugs delivered to them or their nearest pharmacy so that they can carry out a 'DIY' medical abortion without in-person medical supervision.
Abortion clinic owner previously worked for scandal-ridden abortion provider in the UK
Snook previously ran a now-defunct similar smaller local freephone abortion service called '0800-ABORTION'. Dr Snook also owns two of the three private abortion clinics that operate in New Zealand.
Snook is the director of Istar, a company that imports abortion pills to New Zealand and funds a website advertising abortion in New Zealand. The site ranks highly on Google search for vulnerable women facing a crisis pregnancy.
Snook previously worked for Marie Stopes International (now MSI Reproductive Choices) in the UK, which has been linked to a series of scandals. This includes a damning report from the UK's Care Quality Commission (CQC) that accused Marie Stopes International of paying staff bonuses for persuading women to have abortions. At all 70 Marie Stopes clinics, inspectors from the Care Quality Commission found evidence of a policy that saw staff utilise a high-pressure sales tactic, phoning women who had decided against having an abortion to offer them another appointment.
At one clinic in Maidstone, staff told CQC inspectors that the clinic was like a "cattle market" with a "very target-driven culture".
State-sponsored backstreet abortions
Responding to the launch of the new abortion service, New Zealand pro-life group, Voice For Life, said: "How is this anything other than state-sponsored back street abortion?"
The group also drew attention to the lack of safeguards and the potential for coercion and abuse asking "Will perpetrators of abortion coercion now have a convenient mechanism which will allow them to literally stand over their pregnant female victims as they force them to order up the DIY abortion drugs over the phone?"
"What happens when a vulnerable minor rings DECIDE asking for abortion drugs to carry out a secret abortion with no one else around?"
"What about victims of sexual abuse who are coerced into using this service by those who have abused them, and who are seeking to hide the evidence of their repugnant acts of victimization?" the group added.
Right To Life UK spokesperson Catherine Robinson said: "Boasting about ending the lives of more babies through your abortion business is truly horrific".
"'DIY' abortions do not require an in-person consultation before the abortion takes place. They could literally happen in a backstreet and there is nothing to prevent this.
"By removing a routine in-person consultation that allows medical practitioners to certify gestation and recognise potential coercion or abuse, 'at-home' abortion has presented serious risks to women and girls in abusive situations. It has allowed severe complications to occur, as well as abortions far later than the gestational limit for these schemes, as abortion providers currently cannot ensure the pills are taken by the intended individual within the appropriate time frame."

Gothic metal je podvrsta heavy metala.  Izražava potištenost i mračnu romantiku, spojenu sa snagom i agresivnošću heavy metala. Nastao je devedesetih u sjevernoj Europi. Gothic metal je mračniji i znatno teži od srodnog gothic rocka. Gothic metal ili samo gothic, stilski obuhvaća veće krajnosti. Osobit je po vokalnom suprotstavljanju dijaboličnog basa, režećeg "pjevanja", karakterističnog za death metal, i nježnog ženskog soprana. Začetnici su Paradise Lost i My Dying Bride. Tematski obuhvaća smrt, oplakivanje, nesretnu ljubav i fantastične teme.

Ime

Izraz gothic ili pridjev gotički, u povijesti umjetnosti odnosi se na umjetničko razdoblje 13. i 14. stoljeća. Gotički roman druge polovice 18. stoljeća, bio je potaknut fantastičnim oblicima gotičke arhitekture. U gotičkim pripovijestima opisivali su se nadnaravni i stravični događaji. Sadržaji i teme gotičke proze gotovo su istovjetne tekstovima i temama gothic metala. Ipak, ova literatura je nadahnuće samo nekim sastavima.

Naziv gotički koristio je Giorgio Vasari početkom 16. stoljeća, kao pogrdan naziv za gotički stil u Francuskoj, koji je po njegovom mišljenju bio barbarski i sirov, u odnosu na talijanski renesansni stil. I u kontekstu glazbenih podžanrova i gotičke supkulture,  gotika označava nešto mračno,  tajanstveno i nadnaravno.

Povijest

Sam glazbeni žanr začeli su sastavi izvorno doom death usmjerenja, no najutecajniji je engleski sastav My Dying Bride, posebice s albumom Turn Loose the Swans. Nedugo prije izdavanja ovog albuma, svojoj postavi dodaju violinu i čiste vokale, što je praksa koju su kasnije slijedili mnogi sastavi. Sisters of Mercy izvršili su značajan utjecaj na sastave ovog žanra posebice na album Gothic, Paradise Losta.
Američka deathrock skupina Christian Death, također je imala utjecaj na gothic žanr.

I nizozemski The Gathering u početku sviraju spoj doom i death metala, da bi dolaskom nove pjevačice Anneke van Giersbergen, promijenili stil u gothic na albumu Mandylion, kojim su postigli zapažen uspjeh.  Ovaj album jedan je od najznačajnijih izdanja ovog podžanra.

Istovremeno, norveška skupina Theatre of Tragedy prihvaća osnovne značajke novog stila, te ih svjesno nastavlja koristiti, pridonoseći uspostavljanju gothic metal žanra kao samostalnog glazbenog stila.

Engleska Anathema je žanru pridonijela sporim melankoličnim tempom, stvarajući poseban ugođaj, primjerice na albumu Eternity.

Kao jedan od sastava za koje se smatra da su imali značajniji utjecaj na žanr navodi se američka skupina Type O Negative, premda u glazbenom smislu odudaraju od tipičnog europskog gothic zvuka. Stil ovog sastava više je eksperimentalni alter metal s nekim gothic elementima u depresivnosti i nihilističkim tekstovima, kao i u dubokom baritonu Petera Stelea.

Mnogi sastavi stapaju gothic metal s ostalim srodnim žanrovima, posebice s black metalom. Sastavi kao što su švedski Tiamat, talijanski Theatres Des Vampires devedesetih su uklapali elemente gothica u svoj glazbeni izričaj, kao i norveška Tristania.
Premda su granice između ovih podvrsta teško odredive, na prvom albumu Dimmu Borgira For All Tid, očit je utjecaj gothica. U vrijeme stvaranja gothic metala portugalski Moonspell eksperimentira s dark gothic black metal zvukom. Pjevač Moonspella,  Fernando Ribeiro kao glavne uzore navodi Bathory, i švicarski Celtic Frost.

Popularniju verziju gothica svira talijanski sastav Lacuna Coil, kao i američki Evanescence, koji je mnogo bliži nu metalu nego gothicu.

Mnogi europski sastavi sviraju gothic krajem devedesetih i kasnije povezujući ga i sa simfonijski metal: Within Temptation, Epica, Sirenia i drugi.

Prvi album norveškog sastava The Sins Of Thy Beloved, Lake of Sorrow objavljen 1998., ima tipičan gothic metal zvuk.

Zajednička osobina gothic metal sastava je i stalna izmjena žanrovskih određenja. Radi se o "omekšavanju" zvuka, i njegovu prilagođavanju pop ili elektro izričaju, ili o eksperimentiranju s ostalim glazbenim žanrovima.

Najznačajniji albumi

Turn Loose the Swans – My Dying Bride
Gothic – Paradise Lost
Theatre of tragedy
Velvet Darkness They Fear – Theatre of Tragedy
Mandylion – The Gathering
Enter – Within Temptation
Beyond the Veil – Tristania

Podvrste heavy metala


It's been a while since I've talked about Paramount Pictures shameful casting of The Last Airbender, but make no mistake: I'm just as angry as ever that characters of color are to be played by white actors in a film based on a story that I love. While it's certainly too late to save The Last Airbender from the mire of racefail, it's still not too late to raise awareness of the larger issues at work here.
I'm pleased to say that a major newspaper has now picked up the story of the protest, and I think the article does a very good job of explaining the issue of racebending. Please check it out.
Kind of amazing that people are now using the word "racebending" in reference to other movies as well. It feels like this has the potential of being something that actually makes it into the popular consciousness.
When I see those pictures of Noah Ringer, even before I think about his ethnicity, I just think "Wow that kid looks like he has no sense of humor whatsoever." This is supposed to be Aang?
While it's certainly too late to save The Last Airbender from the mire of racefail, it's still not too late to raise awareness of the larger issues at work here.
Uhm, actually, Hollywood's been doing this for 100 years now and every decade a movie raises the awareness of this fact, but nothing ever changes, not really. People just won't effectively boycott Hollywood to make them to take things like this seriously; especially when Hollywood considers itself the center of Race Sensitivity of the world, you only need go to George Clooney's oscar speach from a few years ago to see that.
Of course they've been doing it for ages, but over time the cries of foul have become louder. I'm not saying that next year or two years from now or even 5 years from now we won't still see racefail in the movies; I'm saying that as long as fans and movie-goers keep raising their voices (and voting with their wallets), sooner or later the racefail will at least decrease, as Hollywood starts to realize it's not to their benefit.
Look at TV for an example of this. No, it's not perfect, either in its representation of minorities or in its avoidance of stereotypes, but it's come a loooooong way in the last several decades. I recently got to hear Nichelle Nichols speak at a convention about her experience being cast in the role of Uhura on the original Star Trek series, and all of the struggles she and Gene Roddenberry went through to get her included on the main cast. Believe me, we've come a long way since then. And we've come a long way at least in part because audiences have spoken up about it.
So you can take your pessimism elsewhere, thanks. The fact that this is a long-standing problem is all the more reason for fans like me to NOT shut up about it, even a year and half after the casting was announced, even as the film is a little over a month from release--and even after the film has come out and the hype has died down. Personally, I now consider myself in the anti-racebending movement for the long haul. I'm planning to continue voting with my wallet against racebending, not just against TLA, but also against PoP, and any of the planned anime-adaptations that are supposedly in the works if they don't cast the lead roles fairly. And I'm not the only one who feels this way.
Thanks for the link. I've been meaning to do a post about this for some time, because I think that some of the people on my f'list are unaware of the situation, and I'd like to give them the opportunity to think about it.
If they'd thought about it, I am sure they could have easily casted the Gaang with far more appropriate unknowns, since it's not like any of them are *that* famous.
And since PoP was also mentioned, and I saw the trailer this morning on TV - it's faintly ironic that Ben Kingsley (who played Gandhi way back in the day) is actually half-Indian and had to change his birth name to something more English in order to break into acting.
Good piece. I would have liked to see the article cover in a bit more detail: 1) the implications of whitewashing a character when cultural and ethnic elements are an inherent part of the story (i.e. anglo/western is better!) particularly in light of 2) making the main character(s) white but conscending to allow the secondary characters to be not-white.
Interesting. I think I vaguely remember that storyline.
The Racebending website and Facebook group have a lot of examples of "yellowface", as it's called, but that one isn't included. I suppose they were mainly sticking with film examples, though.
Yeah, it's pretty exciting that the AP has now picked up the story, too. I'm just hoping many people will see our side of it when they read about the film(s).


AFTER WORK… is an informational update sponsored by the CW Region of PSEA Retired. Its purpose is to support active members and locals in their efforts to improve schools and educate school employees on retirement issues and events that affect them in the future. The region will email the update to local presidents, who then will forward it to the members. County reps will also have copies to distribute at county coordinating councils The CW executive committee encourages members to be familiar with retirement AFTER WORK.
Congratulations to Ann Castner and her EA President, Lori Baird, from Richland in Cambria County who won gift cards from Sheetz for reading the February AFTER WORK and contacting Central-Western Retired President Barb Lynch. There may be another opportunity to win in this one-page, non-political update for school employees. Keep reading.
Although many teachers and support staff members have already submitted retirement letters, some still have an upcoming exit conference with the PSERS representatives. There are many decisions to make prior to submitting your paperwork. The AFTER WORK newsletter tries to provide you with information long before that date.
There also can be that "summer surprise," when someone decides at the last minute to retire. If you are in that group, make sure you call PSERS at (888) 773-7748 or (814) 419-1180.
Visit the PSERS website (psers.pa.gov) for a wealth of information on the retirement system.
some are reasonable; and some are included in your association contracts.
One possible option is to remain on your district's plan until you reach age 65. Generally, this will cost you what the district is paying for you now, plus yearly increases.
Some retirees may be covered under their spouse's plan or can purchase insurance on their own.
You may be eligible for $100 per month in premium assistance with either 24.5 years of service; 15 years of service and terminating employment at age 62 or older; or disability retirement.
Below are some common terms that you should be familiar with before retirement planning. How many do you know?
You can learn about these terms and others by going to the PSERS website, attending a FFYF program, attending in March the CWR Pre-Retirement Workshop or attending a CWR-Retired retirement session. If you send an email to cwretired@comcast.net with the word AFTER WORK in the subject line, you could win a Sheetz gift card.
Best wishes for a wonderful summer break and in planning for your retirement. Another AFTER WORK will arrive in September.


Suppose China Co., a Chinese business, sold you some high performance wooden blocks that turned out to defective. China Co. then refused to fix them and now you are stuck with a pile of blocks you can't use or sell. On top of that, China Co. wont refund your money either and has stopped taking your calls.
At this point, you have a choice. You can take the loss or you can take China Co. to the People's Court. While it might make sense to continue to contact China Co. and try to resolve the situation yourself, you might also be giving China Co. time to get rid of evidence or to shift assets out of the way.
If you decide to go to court, there are a few things you need to do.
The next thing you should do is gather evidence. In the People's Court, evidence is almost always provided to the court in documents. For that reason, preparing the case – collecting evidence, researching the law, writing the petition – are the most important parts of the case. That's what the court is going to base its decision on. For that reason, you should be talking to a lawyer at this point. Evidence collection in China is very technical and there are many ways to do it wrong and only one way to do it right.
Once your case is ready, you can then send out a lawyer's letter to the other side. This gives China Co. another chance to talk about settlement. If China Co. has substantial assets and you have a good case, they are going to want to settle. Why?
1) China Co.'s assets can be frozen until the dispute is resolved in certain cases. This includes bank accounts. It's very difficult to make payroll, pay suppliers, etc., if you can't access your cash.
2) We'll say it again, People's Court cases are front loaded. Unless China Co. has some incredible evidence that's going to completely win the case, then they know they are going to lose and in doing so probably have to pay your attorney's fees and court costs. On top of refunding your money if they lose the case, of course.
Although not every defendant responds to a lawyer's letter with an offer to settle, a carefully prepared case and a correctly worded lawyer's letter is oftentimes enough.
But suppose China Co. doesn't care and it still wants to litigate despite the litigation risk and frozen assets. This happens and will always happen here in China, and in the US and in Europe. Some people are just like that.
The next stage is filing the case along with the litigation fee. By court rule, this fee is a percentage of the amount demanded of China Co. If you win, China Co. has to reimburse you for that fee.
After the case is filed, the court has seven days to decide if it's going to accept the case or not.
In the past, the People's Court was notorious for not accepting or rejecting cases. If the case was controversial or involved a locally prominent business as a defendant, the court would sometimes just sit on the case and never make a decision. That's not allowed anymore. The rules were changed when the Civil Procedure Law was revised in 2012. While the court doesn't have to accept every case, it does have to reject any case they aren't going to take and explain their reasons for doing so in writing. And the new rules make it very hard to reject a case.
Once the case is accepted, the court will ask the parties to try to settle. This is standard for any court anywhere but it does give you another chance to get to settlement. Things change once the case is filed and the defendant is now very publicly being accused of wrong doing. For most Chinese businesses, they will seek a quick exit if they can. By filing the case, you may have called their bluff and now they want out.
But suppose China Co. isn't ready to give up yet.
In that case, the next stage is argument. The Court has your evidence in a neat stack of papers along with China Co.'s evidence and responses. That's all the evidence that's going to be presented.
Argument is done in person and usually through a lawyer. Once the court has heard the arguments and reviewed the evidence, it will make a decision. The total time a case takes from filing to decision depends on the court. Unlike previously, the People's Courts are becoming more user friendly, especially here in Guangdong. The average time is about 9 months.
Supposing China Co. doesn't like the court's decision? It can appeal to the court of second instance in most cases. While the court of second instance is a whole new trial, you can present the case you prepared in the court of first instance plus that court's decision.
Sometimes an improperly prepared case can be saved by taking an appeal to the court of second instance and preparing it correctly. But if China Co. really has no evidence to stand on, then there is nothing to appeal. China Co. will have successfully wasted your time but they will have to pay for that in attorney's fees, court fees and in whatever they lost having their assets frozen for so long.
1) Using the People's Court to resolve a disputes with Chinese business is a good option in many cases. However, avoiding disputes by setting up a mechanism to control for legal risks is usually the cheaper option in the long run.
2) In some instances, a defendant's assets can be frozen before the court decides the case. Doing so makes reasonable settlements much more likely.
3) Collecting evidence to be used at trial should be done as soon as the dispute appears headed for litigation and it should be done by a competent lawyer.

Jan 6 2023: Spray Drift impacts on 30,000ha Eastern Darling Downs. Pesticides: 2,4-D
Spray drift damages up to $100 million in cotton, prompting calls for more herbicide controls
https://www.abc.net.au/news/rural/2023-01-06/spray-drift-damages-100-million-dollars-of-cotton-darling-downs/101816638
Anyone can buy the herbicide 2,4-D from a shop, but its misuse may have caused millions of dollars worth of damage to cotton crops, prompting calls for more controls.
The large-scale spray drift event hit up to 30,000 hectares of cotton on the eastern Darling Downs late last year.
But Crop Consultants Australia confirmed there had been spray drift detected across every cotton valley planted in Australia so far this season.
Spray drift is the airborne movement of agricultural chemicals outside a target area.
In this instance the chemical was 2,4-D, which kills plants by changing the way certain cells grow and is commonly used to control weeds.
Agronomist Matthew Holding said it was a shock to discover the affected cotton and he had never seen anything like it.
"To be able to say that pretty much every paddock we look in has some kind of symptom is just unbelievable," he said.
"These would range from low to moderate, and the moderate would be ones where we're starting to actually get concerned."
He said the true extent of the damage was still to be determined.
"It's happened just prior to Christmas I would say, so it's … still starting to rear its ugly head," he said.
Mr Holding said a lot of people were growing cotton at the moment due to strong prices, but sunflowers and small crops were also at risk.
Stuart Armitage, a former president of the Queensland Farmers Federation and former board member of Cotton Australia, said on top of high input costs, such as diesel, fertiliser and labour, the losses would be a huge blow.
"They [spray drift incidents] cause a lot of damage and a lot of grief and even depression and heartache for a lot of people," he said.
"You spend a lot of money getting a crop going, and then someone who we can't name or find or anything … through inconsideration, damages people's crops."
Agronomist Matthew Holding said $500 worth of chemical could have caused the damage, which may total up to $100 million.
"It's almost beyond belief to think that a few hundred dollars' worth of product done incorrectly and illegally could cause tens of millions of dollars … of damage in 2022," he said.
Both Mr Holding and Mr Armitage want more controls put in place around the chemical's use to create transparency.
They want 2,4-D listed as a controlled chemical that people would require certification to use.
"I would have thought that if you buy it from a shop, you've actually got to go onto a registered list and I think from that registered list, you've got to have the ability to keep good records and to be audited at any time," Mr Holding said.
Mr Armitage said the situation would not require a government review.
"All that does is need a tick from the government," he said.
In a statement, Biosecurity Queensland told the ABC it was investigating the use of herbicides associated with a reported spray drift incident on the Darling Downs affecting a 160-hectare site.
A spokesperson said further public comment was not possible while a complaint was being assessed.
Weeds become resistant due to wet season
Weeds have exploded across much of Australia due to wet weather last year.
Senior agronomist at Nutrien Dalby Ross Pomeroy said a huge amount of weed control in the areas concerned was ongoing, due to wet paddocks last winter and spring.
"We just couldn't work the paddock, it was too wet. So the situation was that we use a lot of herbicides," he said.
"Fleabane has been our biggest issue I'd say this season, and to a point where we've got fleabane varieties that are very tolerant or very, very resistant of our normal herbicides.
"Queensland, New South Wales, Northern Victoria [are affected and] I've seen it in my travels all the way up through the Queensland coast, around the Cape and it's just about everywhere, all the way through inland."
He said 30 years ago very light rates of glyphosate were used, but now he was having to go across paddocks three times.
"This might be the end of the herbicide era when it comes down to knockdown," he said.

Can Bankrupt Wife Still Claim for Equalization of NFP?
by familyllb on March 8, 2018
If a spouse declares bankruptcy, is he or she then prevented from claiming for equalization of Net Family Property (NFP?) under Ontario Family law?
That was the question in Kinsella v. Mills, which involved a couple who had separated after 7 years of marriage. At that point, they signed Minutes of Settlement that finalized the splitting of their financial affairs, which was intended to deal with all issues including spousal support, equalization of NFP and constructive trust claims. The Settlement reflected the couple's agreement that the husband would take sole ownership of the matrimonial home and assume all debts and costs, and in return would pay the wife an agreed lump sum, together with a monthly amount.
Less than a year later, the wife declared bankruptcy. She was automatically discharged nine months later. The couple's divorce was formalized a few months after that.
The wife then applied to the court to set aside that Settlement, claiming that it was unfair, signed under duress, and in a situation where she had no independent legal advice and did not know what she was signing. If she was successful, the wife planned to re-launch her claim for equalization of NFP, and wanted it divided unequally in her favour.
The husband resisted, pointing out that after the marriage breakdown he was left with a large amount of debt. Because of the wife's bankruptcy, she was released from having to pay it, but he was still saddled with debt that they had rung up together. Nothing about the Settlement was unfair, in his view.
The court was asked to make a ruling. It observed that nothing in the Family Law Act or the federal Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act specifically prevents a spouse from making a claim for equalization of NFP after declaring bankruptcy. However, after examining the interplay between the two, the court concluded that the legislation operated to effectively do so. The court noted the following:
The wife's claim to any equalization payment from husband fell within the very broad definition of "property" under the bankruptcy legislation.
The moment she declared bankruptcy, she was no longer entitled to dispose of or otherwise deal with her property. Instead, it immediately vested in the bankruptcy trustee.
Once any equalization claim vested with the trustee – and unless the trustee actually joined the wife in the Family Law proceeding – the wife's hands were tied.
The court added that this impasse be remedied by the wife being discharged as a bankrupt, but getting the trustee's consent to go forward, or by firing the trustee. The Family Court also had no authority to undo the wife's bankruptcy.
Having found the wife to lack the capacity to bring the equalization claim, the court added that the Settlement itself was not subject to being undone, since there was no evidence of duress. The wife had also failed to obtain legal advice before signing it, despite being encouraged to do so.
