MLA – 1993 (Indian National Congress),
MLA – 1998 (Independent),
MLA – 2003 (Indian National Congress)
He lost his seat in 2008 by a low margin of 1174 votes to Shri Ajay singh Kilak of BJP.

S Corporation Gifts - Strategies and Hurdles Every Advisor Should Know
Tommy Ely, 58, owns and operates eight car dealerships spread throughout the surrounding areas. Founded in 1977, Tommy is the sole shareholder of Ely Motorsports, Inc., an S corporation. The eight car dealerships represent mainly high-end, luxury car lines. Specializing in providing unparalleled customer service before, during and after the sale, Ely Motorsports appeals to the affluent and wealthy. Not surprisingly, Ely Motorsports generates over $250 million annually in sales and consistently ranks among the nation's top five best dealerships, a record 12 years in a row.
As a long-time active member of the community, Tommy is constantly supporting at-risk youth programs in the local community. In fact, Tommy created a family foundation several years ago to accomplish his charitable goals. Surprising to most people, Tommy was an at-risk youth himself. Having run away from an abusive home at age fifteen, Tommy actually lived on the streets for a brief time. Fortunately, Tommy was befriended and taken in by volunteers of the local at-risk youth center at the age of sixteen. Through love, support and counseling, Tommy turned his life around and the rest is "car" history. Consequently, Tommy's lifetime support of at-risk programs is not a surprise to the people who know Tommy's story.
Tommy wants to contribute $1 million to his foundation this year. Specifically, he wants to give approximately 1,000 Ely Motorsports shares to his foundation. What are the tax consequences to a family foundation if it receives S corporation stock? Should Tommy proceed with the current plan or use an alternate asset?
Prior to 1998, a Section 501(c)(3) charity could not be an S corporation shareholder. Thus, donors could not contribute S corporation stock to charities without adversely affecting the corporation's tax status. However, commencing January 1, 1998, the Code was amended to permit a Section 501(c)(3) charity to be a shareholder of an S corporation.
Accordingly, public charities and private foundations (i.e. family foundations) are now permissible S corporation shareholders. However, private foundations (PFs) are generally less desirable recipients of S corporation stock than public charities. In particular, PFs are prohibited from engaging in certain enumerated transactions. In this instance, the most relevant and important prohibited transaction is Section 4943 transactions, which deal with excess business holdings.
In general, Section 4943 imposes an excise tax on the excess business holdings of a PF. In general, the excess business holdings tax is triggered when a PF and any disqualified person together own more than 20% of the outstanding voting stock. If such a threshold is determined, then Section 4943 imposes an initial tax of 10% on the value of the excess business holdings. However, if a PF does not dispose of the excess business holdings by the end of the tax year, a punitive 200% tax on the excess business holding is imposed.
In this case, Tommy owns 100% of the S corporation stock. Therefore, even if he contributed just 5% to his foundation, he would still trigger Section 4943 because Tommy and the foundation jointly own more than 20% of the outstanding voting stock. This potential tax liability is not acceptable to Tommy.
There are some important exceptions to Section 4943. For instance, in limited situations, the 20% limit may rise to 35%. Unfortunately, this would not resolve Tommy's problem, since he clearly exceeds 35% as well. There is also a 2% de minimis rule which allows PFs to own 2% or less of the outstanding voting stock and 2% or less of the outstanding value of all classes of stock without penalty. Consequently, this exception may alleviate Tommy's present obstacle if his contribution stays within the 2% limits. Lastly, there is a five-year period in which a PF may dispose of an excess business holding.
Despite the possible exceptions to Section 4943, the S corporation route seems unnecessarily burdensome and costly. Furthermore, there are adverse income tax consequences to Tommy and PF when S corporation stock is contributed. More importantly, Tommy can easily use other less complicated and more favorable assets to accomplish his charitable giving goals. With little interest in paying more to the government, Tommy greatly prefers this option. Therefore, Tommy simply completes his gift to his family foundation with $1 million of publicly traded securities. Not surprisingly, later that year, Tommy's foundation makes a large grant to the at-risk youth center, thereby continuing to fulfill a lifelong mission of helping at-risk youth.
Editor's Note: While most contributions to private foundations merely receive a cost basis charitable income tax deduction, there is an important exception for gifts of qualified appreciated stock. Pursuant to Section 170(e)(5), qualified appreciated stock generally is any stock for which market quotations are readily available on an established securities market. Here, Tommy contributed publicly traded securities which qualify under Section 170(e)(5). Accordingly, Tommy's charitable income tax deduction will equal the fair market value on the day that the stocks are contributed (the mean of the high and low sales rule).

Q: C++11 constructors The new move-constructor/move-operator allows us to transfer ownership of objects and this way avoiding using (expensive) copy constructor calls. But is it possible to avoid constructing temporary objects (without using return parameters)?
Example: In the code below the constructor is called 4 times - but ideally what I would like to do is to avoid constructing any objects in the cross method. Using return parameters (for example void cross(const Vec3 &b, Vec3& out) would be possible, but is ugly to read. I'm interested in updating an existing variable.
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

class Vec3{
public:
    Vec3(){
        static int count = 0;
        id = count++;
        p = new float[3];
        cout << "Constructor call "<<id <<" "<<p<< " "<<this<< endl;
    }

    ~Vec3(){
        cout << "Deconstructor call "<<id << " "<<p<<" "<<this<< endl;
        delete[] p;
    }

    Vec3(Vec3&& other)
    : p(nullptr) {
        cout << "Move constructor call "<<id << " "<<p<<" "<<this<< endl;
        p = other.p;
        other.p = nullptr;
    }

    Vec3& operator=(Vec3&& other) {
        cout << "Move assignment operator call from "<<other.id<<" to "<<id << " "<<p<<" "<<this<< endl;
        if (this != &other) {
            p = other.p;
            other.p = nullptr;
        }
        return *this;
    }

    Vec3 cross(const Vec3 &b){
        float ax = p[0], ay = p[1], az = p[2],
            bx = b.p[0], by = b.p[1], bz = b.p[2];
        Vec3 res;
        res.p[0] = ay * bz - az * by;
        res.p[1] = az * bx - ax * bz;
        res.p[2] = ax * by - ay * bx;
        return res;
    }

    float *p;
    int id;
};

int main(int argc, const char * argv[])
{
    Vec3 a,b,c;
    a = b.cross(c);
    return 0;
}

A: Another solution is to return an "expression object" from a.cross(b), deffering the calculation until such an object is assigned to c, and then in the operator= you actually do the calculation:
 struct Vec3
 {

      CrossProduct cross(const Vec3& b);

      Vec3& operator=(CrossProduct cp)
      {
          do calculation here putting result in `*this`
      }
 }

and add similar mechanisms for construction and so on.
This is more involved, but a number of C++ math libraries use this design pattern.

A: If you assign new value directly:
Vec3 a = b.cross(c);

Then it is possible that RVO will take effect and there is no temporary constructed and moved later. Make sure you are compiling with optimizations. The returned value would be constructed in-place into a.
Also allocating an array of 3 floats on heap seems like a performance killer. Using C-like  array float p[3] or std::array<float, 3> should perform much better.

A: To update an existing variable you can use an out parameter:
// out parameter version
void cross(const Vec3 &b, Vec3& res){
    float ax = p[0], ay = p[1], az = p[2],
        bx = b.p[0], by = b.p[1], bz = b.p[2];
    res.p[0] = ay * bz - az * by;
    res.p[1] = az * bx - ax * bz;
    res.p[2] = ax * by - ay * bx;
    return res;
}

RVO will elide the constructor when the return value version is used as an initializer (but not when assigning to an existing object):
// return value version (RVO)
Vec3 cross(const Vec3& b)
{
    Vec3 t; cross(b, t); return t;
}

Also you could offer a mutator of the result object:
// assignment version
void set_cross(const Vec3& a, const Vec3& b)
{
    a.cross(b,*this);
}

All three member functions can efficiently coexist and reuse each others code as shown.

A: This is not a direct answer to your question and I can only contribute little since the present answers cover the important points but I want to lead your attention towards the downsides of the heap-based design you've chosen.
3d-Vector seldom comes alone.
It is of course a trade-off depending on the number of moves you'll have to make and the number of operations you perform on the vectors.
If you only use some single vectors and do a lot of copy/move stuff you can stick to your heap-base design.
But if you have several vectors (in a vector, or array for example) and you want to operate on them, I'd recommed you to not do heap allocations if you are worried about performance.
std::vector<Vec3> a(20);
class con_Vec3 { double x, y, z; };
std::vector<con_Vec3> b(20);

The vector a will maintain a contiguous block of pointers to float where the float values in turn will reside somewhere else in memory which means your values are actually scattered in memory.
Vector b in contrast will contain a contiguous block of 60 doubles, all in one place.
The cost of moving such a std::vector will be equal for both cases (quasi a swap each) but if you copy them, the heap-based solution will be slower, since 21 allocations and 20 copies will take place, whereas in the non-heap solution there is one allocation and 20 copies covering the whole vector.

Java's java.sql.Date class is used in the JDBC API. If you need to set a date on a java.sql.PreparedStatement or get a date from a java.sql.ResultSet, you will interact with java.sql.Date.
Actually, java.sql.Date extends java.util.Date, so anything you can do with a java.util.Date you can also do with a java.sql.Date. Check out java.util.Date for more details.
The biggest difference between java.sql.Date and java.util.Date is that the java.sql.Date only keeps the date, not the time, of the date it represents. So, for instance, if you create a java.sql.Date using the date and time 2009-12-24 23:20, then the time (23:20) would be cut off. If you need to keep the time, use a java.sql.Timestamp instead.


Sugar is one of the most talked about (and demonized) subjects in health and fitness. Most people say they want to cut back on their sugar intake and eat a more wholesome and unprocessed diet.
The problem is that sugar is found in almost everything.
Sugar hides out in foods that you would never suspect. This includes bread, salad dressings, and even healthy-looking granola bars.
Marketing efforts can make you think that something is healthy when in reality it is full of sugar.
This post discusses seven leading hidden sources of sugar and how to avoid them. We will show you firsthand how to become a keen sugar detective and know exactly what to look for!
Yogurt is either a quick and convenient breakfast choice or a filling snack. However, you must be careful with yogurt. Some yogurts are highly sweetened.
You should be particularly careful with the flavored and fat-free yogurts. They are often loaded with sugar, to make up for the loss of flavor, once the fat is stripped out.
It's also a good idea to avoid "lite" yogurts that use artificial sweeteners, such as aspartame. It is important to check the back label of the yogurt container. Avoid it if it contains more than five grams of sugar.
What is a healthier alternative?
Full-fat, unsweetened, Greek yogurt is your best bet.
You can sweeten it yourself with raw honey and some fresh fruit. Then you will know exactly how much sugar you are consuming.
Salad dressing and pasta sauces often contain added sugars.
Make sure to check the nutrition label to see just how much sugar is added. You can also look at sugar's position on the ingredient list. If it is the first or second ingredient, that's a sure sign that it contains high quantities of sugar.
Ready-made salad dressing can be replaced with homemade dressing. It is easy to make a delicious salad dressing with olive oil, vinegar, and some fresh herbs and spices.
You can also make a tasty pasta sauce using fresh tomatoes, basil, oregano, thyme, and fresh garlic. These homemade versions taste better and are much better for you!
Granola bars are deceivingly tricky because they are marketed and appear healthy.
However, many of them contain large amounts of sugar. Some of them contain as much sugar as a candy bar! You should be aware of how much sugar is added to the granola bars you are eating.
Avoid any granola bars that contain five grams of sugar or more (which may be hard to find). To ensure that the bar you choose contains some nutritional value, make sure to also look at the fiber content.
How much fiber is in the bar? Even 3 grams of fiber is better than none!
You can also check to see what type of fat is added. Does it come from healthy sources, like nuts and seeds? Is the fat hydrogenated? It's important to avoid any type of hydrogenated fat.
If you are looking for a quick snack, you can look for sugar alternatives with fruit, like dates, raw honey, and pure maple syrup.
Another option is to make your own granola bars using nuts, seeds, dates, and nut butter. If you make a large batch, you can freeze them and eat them during the week. These granola bars are delicious and filling.
Most frozen meals contain added sugar and salt. While it may be tempting to choose a frozen meal when the time is limited, it's best to stay away from them.
Instead of eating frozen meals, you can make your meals on the weekends. Think of food prepping. You can then freeze any leftovers and eat them during the week.
While dried fruit is a quick and easy snack, it is not always the healthiest option. The fruit is naturally sweet, but some companies use added sugar to make it even sweeter.
If you occasionally eat dried fruit, check the nutrition label to make sure that it does not contain added sugar.
It's best to skip the dried fruit altogether and eat regular fruit. It satisfies a sweet tooth and there is no need for any added sugar.
Better yet, freeze grapes and enjoy them frozen. The kids love this, and it is a great alternative to ice cream or processed sweet treats.
Cereal is one of the most common breakfast items.
Although many children are raised on cereal, most types contain a large amount of sugar. It's best to stay away from any type of sweetened cereal.
Both the cereal and the milk you add to it contain sugar. It's not the best way to start your day. There are much healthier options.
If you like cereal, try rolled oats or quinoa instead. They make a delicious and fiber-rich breakfast. You can sweeten it yourself with pure maple syrup and fresh fruit.
Ketchup is a common kitchen staple for many people. In the past (and in many establishments currently), ketchup is added to meal plans and considered a "vegetable" serving.
However, it is another hidden source of sugar. Most ketchups that are not organic are made with high fructose corn syrup (HFCS), one of the worst types of sugar alternative.
Check the nutrition label to make sure it does not contain any added sugar or high fructose corn syrup (HFCS).
Use a no-sugar-added ketchup or skip it altogether. It is better to eat a burger with sliced tomato, avocado and lettuce instead.
Sugar is found in just about everything.
But knowledge is power. If you know where to find it, it is easier to avoid it. The next time you are out shopping, look at the nutrition labels on your food. You may be surprised at where you find sugar. Avoid foods with added sugar, wherever possible. Use the healthier option tips above to make healthier, low-sugar choices.


JAMMU(PTI): BJP on Sunday said that the abrogation of Article 370 of the Constitution continues to be part of the party's core ideology and it will work in that direction whenever it garners the required numbers in Parliament.
"As far as the abrogation of Article 370 is concerned, it continues to be part of the core ideology of BJP but right now we don't have enough numbers in Parliament to do away with it, but in future when we have the required numbers we will work towards its removal," BJP national spokesperson Sambit Patra told reporters in Jammu on Sunday.
Repealing Article 370, which grants special status to the state of Jammu and Kashmir, would require a two-third majority in Parliament as the Constitution would have to be amended. Patra said BJP and PDP are ideologically different but both the parties came together to provide a stable government to the people of the state and for the sake of development. "People here want development, the coalition has provided a historic opportunity, respecting the mandate of the people of all the three regions, now it should become a successful experiment for the sake of good governance and development," he said.
Patra said "small controversies" do crop up when the coalition partners have differences in their core ideology but the Jammu and Kashmir government was being guided by the common minimum programme agreed upon by the two parties in the form of agenda for alliance. Accusing Congress of running a disinformation campaign against the Narendra Modi government, the BJP spokesperson said it was during the UPA tenure that major corporations were being benefited whereas the current government was working for the welfare of the poor.
"The UPA government, led by Congress, gave away coal blocks and spectrum to benefit these corporate houses, but the current government has benefited by selling the same to these corporate and the money is being used for the welfare of the poor," he said. Slamming the Congress for "making an issue" out of Modi's foreign visits, Patra said India has achieved a lot because of the tours whereas during the foreign tours of former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh nobody noticed any achievements.
Modi government has given instructions to the security forces to reply a bullet being fired on the line of control with a bomb," he said. Defending the statement of Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar that terrorists would be used to fight terrorists, Patra said it was a strategic statement and India would never support terrorism of any form.
On the issue of ongoing power tussle between Delhi Lt Governor Najeeb Jung and Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, Patra said the CM did not show maturity in handling the situation. "He openly accused a senior most bureaucrat at a public function which was an immature thing to do," he said. On issuance of passport to separatist leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani, he said passport can only be issued to the person who declares his nationality in the application form. On the issue of the appointment of CVC, the BJP spokesperson said the issue was in the court and that the court has now granted permission for the appointment and the process was on.

Looking for the perfect appetizer or light lunch? Look no further! Pair beautiful ripe tomatoes, decadent fresh mozzarella and jammy red onions together with a scatter of basil leaves and a pomegranate molasses drizzle to create what is known in simpler terms as a tomato and mozzarella tart.
Just look at that amazing drizzle. The sharp and sweet pomegranate molasses drizzle is what brings this whole dish together. But if you cannot find pomegranate molasses, simply substitute it with a balsamic glaze. You can easily whip one up at home by simply reducing balsamic vinegar to a thick syrup. See instructions on my easy tomato bruschetta with balsamic glaze recipe.
What the heck is "blind baking"? This recipe may sound a little intimidating for someone who may not be that familiar with such a cooking term. It is a common technique for baking a pie crust or tart without the filling. Once you have lined a greased tart tin with pastry dough, all you do is lay over parchment paper and fill with ceramic baking beans. You then "blind bake" in the oven for 5 minutes. Then carefully remove the baking beans and parchment paper and bake for an additional 5 minutes. That's it!
Once you have successfully competed this blind baking process, the world is your oyster! You will want to try out endless tart fillings. So say hello to a life of pies and tarts.
I made two medium-sized tarts with this recipe using 6-inch/15 cm tart cases. This is the perfect size for a satisfying lunch. You can also make one large tart or four small ones to serve as appetizers at your next party.
Looking for the perfect appetizer or light lunch? Try a tomato and mozzarella tart topped with basil and a drizzle of pomegranate molasses!
Heat the olive oil in a pan and gently cook the red onions and garlic over low-medium heat until softened and caramelised.
Add the vinegar to deglaze the pan and cook until all the liquid has evaporated and you are left with jammy, soft onions.
In the meantime, roll out the puff pastry and line the greased tart tin(s). Use a fork to pierce holes into the base of the pastry, then lay over parchment paper over and fill with baking beans. Blind bake in the oven for 5 minutes, then carefully remove the baking beans and parchment and bake for an additional 5 minutes.
Remove from the oven and spread the jammy red onions into the partially-baked tart cases.
Arrange the sliced tomatoes and mozzarella in the tart in a concentric circle. Scatter over some basil leaves and use an egg wash on the rim of the tart. Place back in the oven for 20-25 minutes until the cheese has melted.
Remove from the oven and once it is safe enough to handle, carefully remove the tart from the tin and season with sea salt before drizzling with pomegranate molasses.
If you cannot find pomegranate molasses, a balsamic glaze will work just as well. You can whip one up at home by simply reducing ½ cup balsamic vinegar to a thick syrup.
This recipe makes two medium-sized tarts using 6-inch/15 cm tart cases. You can also make one large tart or four small ones.
This turned out amazing! Loved the flavors of the carmelized onions on the bottom. So so good!!
This tomato and mozzarella tart looks so delicious! I can't wait to make this and devour it. And if my hubby is lucky, he can have a piece. 🙂 Beautiful photos and awesome recipe!
These are such winner recipes in the kitchen! Easy, fast, beautiful and so flavorful!
Oh man, this looks amazing! I never knew what "blind baking" meant until now. I feel like I know a secret chef language word now. 🙂 I must try this recipe – it looks so fresh + filling. The perfect summer lunch for sure!
I am totally drooling! I want this for lunch today! I can't wait for my garden tomatoes to ripen. This is the perfect use for them!
I have never heard of blind baking..but the tarts look totally drool-worthy!
All of my favorites baked in a puff pastry shell. it really doesn't get any better than THIS! With fresh tomato season just starting and a pot of basil growing in front of my window, I know what I'll be indulging in quite often this summer!
What a pretty and elegant dish! Also a great use for my fresh tomatoes!
This looks amazing! It would be great to have as a light lunch!


Over the coming weekend, historians will join our colleagues in the social sciences and humanities in Regina for the annual Congress of the Social Sciences and Humanities, during which the Canadian Historical Association (CHA) will meet.
This year, the CHA has been organized around the theme of "Gathering Diversities," reflecting upon how both our understanding of the past and historical methods have been shaped by diverse and divergent perspectives. You can read the program here.
For the past several years I have examined the words most commonly used in the titles presenters have assigned to their papers, transforming the conference program into word clouds, in an effort to provide a cursory overview of the breadth of subjects being presented at the meeting. Occasionally, I have complemented this analysis with some sort of parallel examination of another aspect of the Canadian historian's craft. One year it was abstracts from journal articles, another year it was past CHA programs, and last year it was a flash-in-the-pan #Canada150 TV special called The Story of Us.
Figure 1. Common words used in Canadian-history course descriptions.
In total, about 15% (231) of the just over 1,600 (1,608) first- and second-year English-language history courses on the books at Canadian universities focus on Canadian history. Of that total, about 17% are what we might consider part of the "traditional" Canadian history survey course(s). Usually (though not always) the Canadian history survey is divided into a first semester course on pre-Confederation Canadian history and a second semester post-Confederation course. The rest of the courses included here are more specialized, looking at specific historiographical questions, groups of people, or regional history.
Combining each of these course descriptions (but not their titles), we can use Voyant Tools to determine the common vocabulary used to describe what is being taught in Canadian-history classrooms.
Before getting into the details, however, it is important to point out the limitations with this type of approach. There are three factors that may give some history programs more influence in this analysis than others.
More verbose course descriptions provide more data and therefore may skew the results. In the latter example, the word "treaty" is used twice, giving this entry more influence for that word.
Second, calendar copies do not necessarily reflect the courses actually being taught at a university. In fact, it is quite possible that many of these courses have not been taught for years. Perhaps a symptom of this, the number of courses each history department lists in their calendars varies wildly. Some programs have as few as 14 history courses listed at the first and second year while a handful have over 80. I suspect that for the latter cases, these departments are not in the habit of removing from the calendar courses seldom taught. Programs with more courses on the books will have more influence in shaping the results.
Third, the plethora of courses on the books at some universities relative to others points to one substantial difference in the place of Canadian history at some universities. Somewhat counter-intuitively, it is at the larger schools (Alberta, UBC, Dalhousie, McGill, Memorial, U of T, and York) where less than 8% of the courses offered are Canadian in focus (Bishop's and Brock are also low); while smaller schools such as Acadia, Brandon, Mount Saint Vincent, Nipissing and UNBC have much more variety on offer (Concordia, Manitoba, UNB and Waterloo are also high). As a consequence, it is these smaller schools, with more options seemingly available to students, that have more influence in these results. If we weighted this to account for the number of students actually taking these courses, I suspect this analysis would look somewhat different.
Finally, as I note every year, this is not an academic study. I have done the research for this essay over the past few evenings to provide an overview for discussion in the lead-up to the CHA. This is not a rigorous study.
So, bearing all of this in mind, what do these descriptions tell us about what is taught in universities about Canadian history?
First, from a national perspective (figure 1 above), the top five most common words are: "social" (109), "political" (107), "economic" (83), "development" (69), and "Confederation" (66). None of these words should be surprising. Taken together they provide a fairly general and flexible framing for anyone teaching an introductory course. Importantly, however, when the word count for "Indigenous" (36), which ranks 10th, and "Aboriginal" (31) are taken together, they move into the fifth position (higher if "Native" is also considered). Of all specific groups of people noted in course descriptions, Indigenous peoples are by far and away the most frequently explicitly noted in course descriptions.
The situation looks a little different, however, if we think about these courses from a regional perspective. The 11 universities west of Ontario use 2,634 words to describe 55 courses. The five most common words in their descriptions are "development" (29), "political" (27), "social" (24), "war" (18) and "Indigenous" (17). Much like in the national analysis, though, when "Aboriginal" (13) is added to "Indigenous", it ranks most prominently.
Figure 2: Common words in university calendar descriptions west of Ontario.
In Ontario, which hosts the largest number of post secondary institutions (17), the top five are "social" (44), "political" (42), "economic" (32), "development" (26), and "cultural" (22), derived from 99 courses and a corpus of 3,776 words. "Indigenous" and "Aboriginal" are used 13 times each, meaning that they would tie with "development" for fourth/fifth place.
The view from Eastern Canada, with which I have included Bishop's, Concordia and McGill, is significantly different. Though there are five fewer schools than in Ontario, Eastern Canadian universities (12) use more words (3,943) to describe their 77 courses. The top five terms in the east are "social" (41), "political" (38), "economic" (37), "Confederation" (30), and "cultural" (20). The east is the only place where "women" (17) ranked high (it is sixth), while "Indigenous"/"Aboriginal" is relatively low (11); interestingly "African" or "Black", words which do not even appear in the other regions' course descriptions, are cited 18 times, which would move it just above "women".
As we might expect, given the different focus of the CHA's annual meeting, paper titles from this year's conference program point in other directions. Much like previous years' presentation-titles, the words "war" (17), "Indigenous" (16), and "British" (11) are near the top of the list. Interestingly, for this meeting "early" (9), "settler" (8), and "colonial" (6) also rank in the top ten when non-topical and very common words are removed. Except for Indigenous, none of these words rank highly in the course descriptions.
The emphasis on "early" and "colonial" however, should not mislead you into thinking that earlier periods in Canada's history are better represented than in past conferences; only about one quarter of the papers to be delivered next week address the period before 1867 (it was 20% last year), and just over one tenth address the period before 1800 (the same as last year). Unfortunately, because I did not include course titles in my analysis of course descriptions, I cannot compare the program with course offerings. It is worth noting, however, that several history programs offer a breadth of Canadian history courses rather than just a single survey course or two courses broken up temporally in the mid-nineteenth century. These schools break Canadian history up into three or more distinct temporal units.
From a regional perspective, much like when it was last on the Prairies two years ago, this year's annual meeting better represents Prairie history than the CHA usually does. It is the region best represented this year with 27 papers addressing the region; though nationally- and Indigenous- focused papers (61) are more common in the program. This regional spike is somewhat common. In previous years, with the exception of when the meeting was held in B.C., local/regional history of the host institution has been more prominent.
Finally, as usual, Active History has a fairly strong presence at this year's meeting.
Anyone interested in learning more about the Active History project or (better yet!) interested in becoming involved, we will be meeting over the lunch hour (12:00 to 1:30) on Tuesday 29 May in room RC 228.2. We hope to see you there.
Thomas Peace is an assistant professor of Canadian history at Huron University College.
Interesting observations, Tom. I have a question and a couple of comments. First, did you look at francophone universities in Quebec? My sense is that they (and probably McGill and Concordia too) offer more Quebec history overall and perhaps at the survey (1st and 2nd year) level.
Second, on the question of larger universities offering less Canadian history, that's not surprising to me: one of the byproducts of bigness is being able to cover more parts of the world. There may be more Canadianists in terms of numbers, but proportionally they will make up a smaller percentage of a large department. Consequently, the percentage of Canadian history taught will be less. There might be "much more variety on offer" in Canadian history at smaller schools, but there is greater geographic and thematic variety on offer at larger ones.
Finally (and to add to your discussion of methodology), I'd add that university bureaucracies can provide disincentives to change course descriptions. Ours are pretty new because we revamped our survey Canadian history, but before that I'm not sure that those course descriptions had changed in 20+ years! As you note, descriptions don't capture what is taught!
Thanks for this piece – and the others you've written: you always give us something to think about!
Another important consideration is colleges in BC that offer transfer courses to Unversity Credit. Many of the BC entry level insitutuions offer 1st or 2nd year courses particularly Canadian history to their transfer programs. This definitely would alter University offerings.
This is really interesting, Tom, and I think the patterns you've identified are telling. At the same time, I'd add that as historians we always look for patterns, but we also know the devil is in the details.
Brock is certainly an outlier in lots of ways, but the details reveal other things. First, on the number of course, we are low – to be sure – but we are low on Canadianists. Only 4 of our 21 permanent faculty teach Canadian courses (19 per cent – a quick look at obvious comparators Western, Trent, and Guelph show 33 to 40%). We made a deliberate choice around 2005 (when we were expanding!) to go global. We hired nine positions between 2004 and 2009, and only two of those were Canadian. Plus, that gets reduced still further because, for example, I teach courses in rural history and food history where Canadian content is significant, but not noted in the calendar descriptions.
Second, on descriptions versus what's taught, some of our descriptions hide content. Maureen Lux, for example, teaches medical courses that, not surprisingly, have significant Canadian and more particularly Indigenous content. I teach a course called War and Nationalism, but a third of the course covers Canada's war in the West; the nationalisms we cover are English and French-Canadian, but also Indigenous – plus we look at colonialism abroad in the Boer War. The title is meant to draw students, but it's also a slightly covert way to teach Canada as a colonial project without saying so.
I'm sure some of these details exist elsewhere too, but it does very much mark Brock as a department that has de-centered Canada.
And speaking of de-centering Canada – dropping your colonial survey?!?!?

The core curriculum results report analyzes two coping skills lessons and one study skills lesson. I chose the lessons to address two of my program goals. The lessons are linked to my counseling program's vision and mission by helping students acquire knowledge, skills, and attitudes necessary to be become proficient students and responsible citizens that contribute positively in society.
113 third grade students participated in both coping skills lessons. Even though only 7% of the students reported knowing what good coping skills were on the pretest, 84% believed learning good coping skills would help them do better in school. These results led me to believe that the majority of the third graders wanted to be able to appropriately handle their problems in order to succeed in school. At the end of the coping skills unit, 77% of the third grade students reported knowing what good coping skills were and 91% believed knowing the skills would help them achieve in school. My counseling program goal was to reduce the number of office discipline referrals for this particular group of students by 25%. The outcome data revealed the number of referrals decreased by 50.6%. I believe the large decrease in referrals could be attributed to several factors; the coping skills unit, additional counseling services, the Harmony Program and technological changes in reporting behaviors. Due to the past success in helping third graders deal with life's challenges, the lessons will continue to be taught. After reviewing the office discipline referrals for 2016-17, a third lesson will be added to the unit that addresses conflict resolution skills and ways to de-escalate. The students' responses on the Clay vs Rock worksheet revealed a more in-depth explanation needs to be given on the two types of problems in order to help second language students understand the analogy better. In addition to these modifications, students who report they do not know what good coping skills are on the posttest will be invited to participate in a small group. Students with multiple office referrals will receive additional counseling services to help them utilize good strategies. After reviewing office discipline data, additional coping skills lessons will be incorporated into my counseling core curriculum for fourth and fifth grade.
116 fifth graders and 110 fourth graders participated in the study skills lesson. The lesson was the second lesson in a three lesson study skills unit. On the study skills pretest, 42% (5th) and 50% (4th) of the students' total scores placed them in the excellent study habits category. An additional 42% (5th) and 39% (4th) of the students' total scores placed them in the good study habits category. These results, along with data obtained from the 1st Quarter Progress Reports, led me to believe the students thought they had good study habits but in actuality, they did not know effective ways to study. The decline in the number of students in the good study habits category and an increase in the number of students in the improvement needed category on the posttests, supported my belief. A comparison of the study skills pre/posttest scores and 2nd semester reading grades revealed to me that students became aware of their ineffective study habits and made changes after the study skills lessons to become more proficient in reading. My counseling program goal was to reduce the number of fourth and fifth graders earning an F in reading by 70%. The outcome data revealed the percentage change was 91%. Due to the successful outcome, the lessons will continue to be taught to third graders with fourth and fifth graders receiving modified lessons that include organization and time management skills. In addition, the pre/posttest will be reformatted into the Plickers application and adjusted to reflect the new skills. Utilizing Plickers will allow for better data collection that can be shared with teachers sooner. The addition of skills and technology to the lesson will help me address more of the ASCA Learning Strategies standards.
The outcome data from both the coping skills and study skills units revealed students acquired the attitude, knowledge and skills necessary to succeed. Lessons from both units aligned well with ASCA Mindsets and behaviors. The 45 minute allotted time was appropriate to teach each lesson and answer student questions. The topic of each unit will be continued but lesson activities will be changed so as not to repeat the same lesson in every grade level.
Outcome Data (Achievement, attendance, and/or behavior data): *Office discipline for the current 3rd grade students totaled 44. This group had 89 referrals in the previous year. The percentage change was 50.6%. The 44 referrals were for 20 students. 4 of the 20 made up 57% of the 3rd grade referrals.
Implications: *I expected a decrease in office discipline referrals but not this large. I speculate that the lessons, additional services provided by the social worker and myself, Sanford Harmony Program, and the change in submitting office referrals were all contributing factors. Coping skills lessons will continue due to the positive results but the Clay vs Rock analogy will be modified to assist second language students. Ways to resolve a conflict will be added to the unit and the pre/posttests. Students who receive multiple office referrals will continue to participate in additional counseling activities. Data will continue to be collected to determine the effectiveness of the lessons and track the progress of this particular group of students.
Perception Data (Surveys or assessments used): *On the Pretest, 42% of 5th graders and 50% of 4th graders rated themselves as having excellent study habits. Another 42% of 5th graders and 39% of 4th graders rated themselves as having good study habits.
Outcome Data (Achievement, attendance, and/or behavior data): *27 fifth graders earned an F in Reading on their 1st Quarter progress report and only 3 earned it on their 2nd Semester report card. *6 fourth graders earned an F in Reading on their 1st Quarter progress report and 0 earned it on their 2nd Semester report card. *Percentage change for # of Fs in reading from 1st Qtr to 4th Qtr was 91%. *5 fifth & 11 fourth graders achieved A/B Honor Roll in the 1st Quarter and 13 fifth & 26 fourth graders achieved it in the 4th Quarter.
Implications: *The outcome reveals the study skills lessons were effective in improving student grades. In the future, they will be taught to 3rd graders as the foundation lessons, while 4th and 5th graders will receive expanded study skills lessons to better prepare them for middle school. Time management and organizational skills will be added (B: LS 3). The pre/posttests will be amended to address the new topics. Apps like Plickers will be utilized to assist with data collection. Due to the uncertainty of why students' total study skills scores decreased, a follow-up question will be asked of the students.

Improved Sound Limited est un groupe de krautrock allemand formé en 1961.

Le groupe commença à faire ses preuves dans l'école de Willstätter à Nuremberg sous le nom de Pyjamas Skiffle Group.
De 1964 à 1966, le groupe changea de nom pour Blizards et suivait le chanteur de pop Roy Black durant 33 shows. Le nom Improved Sound Limited le remplaça en 1966.
Le groupe était spécialisé pour servir de bande originale pour les séries télévisées allemandes et les films de Michael Verhoeven. En 1969 sortira Engelchen Macht Weiter, Hoppe, Hoppe Reiter, la bande originale d'un film de Michael Verhoeven.
Bernd Linstädt n'était pas à proprement parler un musicien du groupe, mais ce dernier a eu un réel impact sur le groupe grâce à ses lyrics imaginatifs.

Q: Does memsql really support Ranking Functions? http://docs.memsql.com/5.0/concepts/window_functions/
I checked the doc linked above and came up with several possible SQL functions but had no luck with any of them. These are just a few:
select row_number() from test;
select row_number() over (order by _id) from test;
select row_number() over {order by _id} from test;
select row_number() over order by _id from test;
select row_number() over (order by _id) as row_num from test;
select row_number over order by _id as row_num from test;

All give me ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax;
MemSQL version is 5.5.8
And of course select _id from test; works fine?
So what is the exact syntax to use? Or is there actually no such thing in MemSQL?

A: The version string you see is a mysql compatibility version, which I assume you got by doing SELECT version();. To correctly check your MemSQL version, use SHOW VARIABLES WHERE Variable_name = 'memsql_version';.
Window functions are new in MemSQL 5, leading me to believe you aren't running MemSQL 5. That wouldn't be odd, as 5 is still in beta (as of 2016-03-16). You can get the beta here.
In his reply to your question, dnoeth correctly states that queries #2 and #5 are valid. For due diligence, I have ran these queries against my local build of MemSQL, and both of them work.
memsql> create table test(_id int);
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec)

memsql> insert into test values (1), (2), (3);
Query OK, 3 rows affected (0.01 sec)
Records: 3  Duplicates: 0  Warnings: 0

memsql> select row_number() over (order by _id) from test;
+----------------------------------+

Sony shows off latest SmartEyeglasses prototype
The glasses have a basic green text display and feel a bit like a computer monitor from the 1980s
Martyn Williams (IDG News Service) 05 September, 2014 22:02
A second-generation prototype of Sony's SmartEyeglasses on show at IFA in Berlin on September 5, 2014
The latest prototype of Sony's SmartEyeglasses, a head-mounted display used with a smartphone, is on show at this week's IFA electronics show in Berlin.
The device has clear lenses and a thick plastic frame, built that way to hide the electronics, and can project green-colored text across a wide portion of the lens resulting in a very different experience than that of Google Glass.
Whereas the Google product puts a color display in a corner of the wearer's field of vision, the Sony glasses project over a great portion of the lens but the green text and basic graphics shown by the glasses are reminiscent of a computer monitor from the 1980s, albeit at a higher resolution.
The glasses have a bit of a clumsy feel because they are so large and that image isn't helped by an additional wired control unit that houses additional electronics and handles communications with a smartphone.
But the system is still a prototype. Sony hasn't announced any plans to sell it and any eventual commercial product might look very different.
Several apps loaded in a companion smartphone are capable of interacting with the glasses to provide location and context-aware information.
One of the main apps, Wikitude, was demonstrated overlaying the direction and distance of transit stations on the wearer's field of view. A Sony representative said it can also provide additional information when, for example, the wearer looks at a wine bottle.
Cookpad is an app that shows recipe information, allowing the wearer to cook and follow a recipe while avoiding getting dirty hands on a cook book, and Local Life will, for example, provide information about events taking place in the local area.
An additional setting screen in a paired smartphone appeared to indicate it is also possible to display Gmail updates, Facebook posts, RSS feeds, calendar reminders and tweets on the glasses.
Sony unveiled the first prototype of the glasses at this year's Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.

Iran test launches 2 Qadr H ballistic missiles marked: 'Israel must be wiped out'
Iranian general boasts, "The reason we designed our missiles with a range of 2,000 kilometers is to be able to hit our enemy, the Zionist regime, from a safe distance."
By Associated Press & Israel Hayom Staff
Iran test-fired two ballistic missiles at a target some 1,400 kilometers (870 miles) away, with the phrase "Israel must be wiped out" written on them, Iran's semiofficial Fars News Agency reported on Wednesday.
A Qadr H long-range ballistic surface-to-surface missile is fired by Iran's Revolutionary Guard in an undisclosed location in Iran, March 9, 2016 – Photo: AP
Fars offered pictures it said were of the Qadr H missiles being fired.
According to Brig. Gen. Amir Ali Hajizadeh, head of the Revolutionary Guard's aerospace division, Iran's medium-range ballistic missiles are designed to be able to hit Israel.
"The reason we designed our missiles with a range of 2,000 kilometers [1,200 miles] is to be able to hit our enemy the Zionist regime from a safe distance," Hajizadeh was quoted as saying by the Iranian Students News Agency.
The announcement of the rocket fire comes as U.S. Vice President Joe Biden visits Israel as part of a Middle East tour. It also comes after a U.S. State Department spokesman on Tuesday criticized another missile launch, saying America planned to bring it before the United Nations Security Council.
On Tuesday, Iran's Revolutionary Guard said it had recently launched several medium-range and short-range ballistic missiles as part of a military exercise, with ranges of between 300 and 2,000 kilometers (190 to 1,200 miles).
The longer ends of that range appear to exceed limits that the U.N. Security Council has imposed in connection to resolutions banning Iran from developing missiles capable of carrying nuclear warheads. Iran says none of its missiles are designed to carry nuclear weapons.
Obama administration spokesmen said it was aware of reports of the launch but could not confirm. They said that if the launches did occur, they would seek redress at the Security Council.
Asked whether the secretary-general condemned the latest missile launches, U.N. spokesman Stephane Dujarric said the U.N. was looking into the reports and it was up to the Security Council to determine whether there were any violation.
"It's important that Iran live up to its obligations under the [nuclear] deal," he said.
The U.N. experts panel said last year that a missile with a range of at least 300 kilometers (190 miles) and a payload of at least 500 kilograms (1,100 pounds) is considered by expert guidelines to be capable of delivering weapons of mass destruction
The Revolutionary Guard website said the missiles launched during the exercises included the midrange Shahab-1 and -2, and the multiple warhead Qiam, with a range of 800 kilometers, and the liquid-fueled Qadr F, which reportedly has a range of nearly 2,000 kilometers. It did not give the rockets' payload capacity.
The missiles have been in service in the Guard over the past years.
The Islamic Republic News Agency said the missiles, launched from silos in several locations across the country, demonstrated Iran's "deterrence power" and its readiness to confront threats. Iranian state TV ran what it said was video footage of the operation, showing missiles in underground silos and flashes of light from nighttime launches.
"Israel is afraid of the missile launch since it is in range of most of our missiles. Naturally, whoever has hostility towards Iran is in fear," said the Guard chief, Gen. Mohammad Ali Jafari, according to the Guard's website. "Our enemies have learned that increasing sanctions and security pressures have no [negative] impact on boosting of our capabilities."
State media said the exercise was in its final phase on Tuesday.
In October, Iran successfully test-fired a new guided long-range ballistic surface-to-surface missile. It was the first such test since Iran and world powers reached a landmark nuclear deal last summer.
U.N. experts said the launch used ballistic missile technology banned under a Security Council resolution. In January, the U.S. imposed new sanctions on individuals and entities linked to the ballistic missile program.
Since 1992, Iran has emphasized a self-sufficient and indigenous military production industry, producing missiles, tanks and light submarines. The government frequently announces military advances that cannot independently verified.

Artist / Maker: Bellini, Giovanni (c.1430-1516)
Title / Object name: St. Jerome in the Wilderness
Place made: Venice
Materials: Tempera on wood
Measurements: 44 x 29.9 cm, 52 x 38 x 7.9cm as framed
Provenance: D. Goodyear, Gloucester; his sale, Christie's Auction House, London, 6 June 1856 (lot 537), unsold; Christie's Auction House, London, 12 June 1863 (lot 59), purchased by the 6th Earl of Southesk; by descent, Southesk collection; Christie's Auction House, London, 23 July 1948 (lot 42); Agnew's, 1949; purchased by the Barber Institute, 1949 for £7,700.
Saint Jerome (died 419) was a scholar who translated the Bible into Latin. He also retired to the wilderness and lived the secluded of a hermit. According to legend, he removed a thorn from the paw of a lion who then became his companion. Here, Jerome exchanges the scholar's study for a cave. Beyond is a sunlit landscape full of closely-observed natural details representing the comfortable life he has forsaken and the future he will gain. Throughout the quattrocento and the earliest years of the cinquecento, the image of the penitent Saint Jerome was widespread in the painting of the Veneto and the Po region, in particular on small panels made for private devotion.
Giovanni Bellini's originality as an artist results from his pictures of Sain Jerome in the Wilderness, which are entirely his invention and differ from the mainstream iconography as a variant with Venetian overtones. They seem to have been destined for urban collectors, whom they addressed with a dream of an alternative life lived in the nature.
Giovanni Bellini played a crucial role in the development of Venetian painting, introducing a glowing use of colour and a new feeling for landscape.
Since its rediscovery in the 19th century, this painting has generally been considered one of Bellini's very first efforts. Opinions on the date of its execution vary, ranging from 1445 to about 1460.
Inscriptions / Translations: Signed on cartellino: IHOVANES BELINVS
This is an otherwise unknown form of the artist's signature.
Notes: Exhibited: 'Mostra di Giovanni Bellini', Palazzo Ducale, Venice, Italy, 1949 (no.24); 'The Age of Titian', National Gallery of Scotland, Edinburgh, UK, 04 August 2004 - 05 December 2004 (no. 2); 'Giovanni Bellini', Scuderie del Quirinale, Rome, Italy, 30 September 2008 - 11 January 2009 (no. 2); 'Landscapes of Faith: Giovanni Bellini in Renaissance Venice', The Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles, USA, 10 October 2017-14 January 2018, 'Mantegna and Bellini', National Gallery, London, 1 October 2018 - 27 January 2019 then toured to Gemaldegalerie, Berlin, 1 March 2019 - 30 June 2019

Integrelec was awarded the contract for all electrical work and programming on the Roof Tile Extruder project for the recent upgrade of the Trim Plant in the Bristile factory at Wacol. Integrelec demonstrated its ability to take on big jobs with this upgrade, as the first major project where all aspects of the electrical work was our responsibility. All our work had to be complete and a fully operational machine had to be up and running within two weeks to comply with the production line shut-down constraints.
Once Integrelec had won the contract and we were informed of the delivery date, our planning work commenced straight away. With this new system, there was a totally new design that had to be created with the latest in machine automation technology. The electrical design started months in advance of the onsite installation. A full switchboard was designed that include a new Siemens S7300 PLC, Safety PLC and three multiple SEW Servo drives, all networked through a Siemens Ethernet switch.
Our programming task involved a brand new HMI operator console, which was designed to be easy to use for the operator while being fully functional. This HMI was also connected to the PLC through the Ethernet network. The PLC program and servo program was designed to be extremely efficient and dependable. We are always extremely prepared before we do any onsite work as we know how restricted and important onsite time is to our customers.
As this was the first part of the line to be upgraded, Integrelec had to integrate the new technology with the existing system and legacy software. Our flexibility and adaptability was displayed throughout this project as we integrated the old system with the new. As we worked in a plant with existing equipment, all the cables where carefully installed to maintain what was already in place. Various sensors and solenoids were included in this project for the operation of the Extruder.
Integrelec hit the ground running the moment Bristile Trim Plant started their two week shut-down. The switchboard was delivered and installed within a very short time. Wiring hook-ups were made to the Servo motors and all of our sensors and solenoids were installed into the PLC I/Os. Next was the task of running the new machine and the new system with the existing out-of-date system. Our experienced engineers formulated a plan to overcome this obstacle with minimal difficulty. Our programmers then stepped up to complete the remaining commissioning as they fine-tuned the program and machine operation to get the most efficient and smooth operation of the extruder possible.
Surpassed customer expectations – plant in full production two days earlier than planned!
Become one of Integrelec's success stories!


I've been running (as a form of working out) off and on for the past few years. As an engineer, data analysis is important to me, even if I'm a poor and slow runner. I first started with a Garmin Forerunner 205 to track and analyze my runs a few years ago. The 205 is a "GPS watch" and it relies on GPS signals to track distance and speed. The 205 only works as a GPS and doesn't support linking to "foot pods", which is required for running indoors (no GPS signal) or on a treadmill (no movement).
Of course, at the time I bought the Forerunner 205, I didn't think I would ever run on a treadmill since I don't have one at home and I didn't plan on getting a gym membership. But eventually I realized that I had to run indoors during rainy seasons. Anyway, so I decided to get a Nike SportBand. The SportBand uses a foot pod (placed inside the shoe on specific shoe models or tied to the shoelace using an accessory or duck tape) to measure the foot's movement instead of relying on GPS for movement. So it works both outdoors and indoors, but unlike a GPS, it's not able to map the course of the run, and it needed calibration to the individual in order to be accurate.
A lot of people say the Nike+ system is inaccurate and without calibration it makes most people think they're actually faster than they are, usually by 5% or more. Since I have both the GPS and the Nike+, I discovered that my Nike+ is actually slower than my GPS by about 5%. After calibration I get 99~100% accuracy compared to my the Garmin GPS.
Fast forward to 2014. Recently I finally got tired of using two systems and constantly having to convert my workouts between systems (details in another post), so a few weeks ago I upgraded to a spanking new Forerunner 220 with a foot pod (purchased separately), so I can use one system for both outdoor and indoor runs.
The Adidas Stride Sensor looks exactly like the Garmin SDM4 Foot Pod, apparently being manufactured by the same manufacturer. They both use the same ANT+ protocol, so they are completely compatible with each other. Strangely enough, it does NOT fit inside the Nike+ hole inside my Nike shoes, despite everything I read on the Internet that the ANT+ sensor is exactly the same size as the Nike+ sensor. But the Garmin / Adidas sensor is microscopically bigger and it does not fit.
Stupidly enough, one thing that caught me completely off guard about the Forerunner 220 and the ANT+ foot pod is that the watch only supports linking to one foot pod at a time. This is unlike the Nike+ system that supports up to 10 sensors. When I was using the Nike+ system, I actually bought one sensor for each pair of shoes I have, so there's no need to swap the sensors. I don't quite understand why I can only link to one ANT+ foot pod on the Garmin. Am I supposed to move the foot pod to whichever shoe I decide to wear before I start my workout? Completely illogical.
Trust me, I tried every orientation. The Garmin foot pod doesn't fit the Nike+ cutout. Since writing this post, I've also gotten the Adidas SPEED_CELL, it also doesn't fit.
FR220 has an integrated accerlerometer for indoor runs. No footpod required. Just turn GPS off to make sure you don't have reception through windows unintentionally. To do this once, press UP key when RUN screen is displayed.
Since you have the FR 220 and a Foot Pod I was wondering if you compared the built in accelerometer to the food pod for cadence accuracy? I know that the watch will use the foot pod if it is connected, but with your engineering background did you test the two. I just got the FR 220 and debating if the foot pod is worth it for cadence sense the accelerometer does give me a reading.
The internal accelerometer is very accurate, however it's only good if you're running at a constant rate (such as on a treadmill) and swinging your arms normally. It doesn't quite work if you make sharp stops and orientation changes. When I run indoors, I don't actually run on a treadmill, on a single direction indoor track, so I have to make 180-degree turns on the ends of the track, which confuses the internal accelerometer, while the footpod knows I make a stop and turn around.

The Wye Valley AONB Unit is working with Gloucestershire County Council, Herefordshire Council and the Black Bridge Steering Group to find a viable solution to reopen the former Lydbrook railway bridge and the Wye Valley Walk. An application to the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) for a Heritage Grant has been submitted with the overall aim to conserve and enhance the bridge for generations to come while celebrating the personal & community connections to its heritage. Please see the Gloucestershire County Council Press Release here.
This will be a 2 stage HLF application. If successful a Development Phase will commence in October 2018 to refine and finalise all the elements of the project and secure firm quotes and commitments for all the work. These form the second round application to HLF in July 2019. If successfully approved, then the restoration work would commence in October 2019.
• revitalise community engagement with the bridge; researching, recording and celebrating the community and industrial heritage connected with the bridge and the local railways, use of river and the symbiotic relationship between Lydbrook and Welsh Bicknor.
Lydbrook Bridge, also known as Stowfield Viaduct or The Black Bridge, spans the river between Herefordshire and Gloucestershire. The importance of the viaduct to the community cannot be overestimated with the bridge a strategic link for the Wye Valley Walk and the YHA Wye Valley Hostel at Welsh Bicknor. There is a 6 mile road route separating the two sides of the bridge. The footpath is a designated Public Right of Way on the Herefordshire half of the Bridge but not for the Gloucestershire part. Under mutual agreement Gloucestershire County Council have responsibility for maintenance of this bridge.
