Projects – CONSULATE GENERAL OF PAKISTAN – BARCELONA.
Welfare Wing is trying to enter into a dialogue with the Spanish authorities for establishing modalities for imports of labour from Pakistan. Government of Spain requires workforce for its agricultural sector, which is recruited from other countries for seasonal contracts of upto 09 months. This labour arrives from origin countries under agreed upon conditions, ensuring pre-arranged jobs, accommodation, social services and travel arrangement. Government of Spain intends to regulate the inflow or immigrants to make it legal and beneficial for all.
Welfare Wing aims to initiate early dialogues with Spanish authorities so that the Pakistanis can benefit from this opportunity.
Currently, the membership of Overseas Pakistanis Foundation is negligible in the Pakistani expatriate community in Spain. This is due to the fact most of the Pakistanis have arrived in Spain without work visa.
OPF membership offers many benefits to expatriate community, like options for membership in housing schemes, facilitation education needs of the children of Overseas Pakistanis through its own schools as well as by reserving seats for Overseas Pakistanis in higher education institutions, provision of health services, pension schemes, loans for the facilities of overseas Pakistanis who die during there stay aboard.
Welfare Wing has taken up the matter with OPF for removing certain impediments which are hampering the membership of OPF for Pakistanis in Spain. Once the same has been achieved, a campaign for OPF membership will be launched.
Welfare Wing is available 24 hours for facilitating documentation necessary for shipment of dead bodies from Spain to Pakistan. With the launch of PIA flights between Pakistan and Spain, the facility of free transportation has also become available. In destitute case, Consulate General can also provide financial assistance in paying the dues to funeral services.
There are Pakistani prisoners facing terrorism charges in Spanish jails. Welfare Wing keeps contacts with the prisoners in order to ensure their well being. Welfare Wing also keeps contacts with their families in Spain and Pakistan.
Complaints received from overseas Pakistanis are routinely forwarded to the concerned authorities in Pakistan for appropriate redressal.


Mindfulness, the practice of focusing one's attention on their emotions, thoughts and sensation, has been increasingly used in corporations and even in the United States Army, leading some to speak of a "Mindfulness Revolution". Jochen Reb, Associate Professor of Organisational Behaviour and Human Resources at the Singapore Management University and a leading scholar on mindfulness, gave a lecture at the HEAD Foundation on 16 March.
Mindfulness is really about working on one's quality of attention, Prof. Reb said, and it is about paying attention in a particular way. Research has suggested that 47% of the time in the average's person daily life, their mind is wandering. People tended to report being less happy when their mind is in such a wandering state. Much of this is due to the information overload for a generation of users of mobile devices.
Scientific research on mindfulness, underpinned by medical, clinical, psychology and neuroscience research, has been growing exponentially in the past 15 or so years. The origins of the modern practice of mindfulness, most can agree, are derived from religious and spiritual traditions. But Prof. Reb was careful to explain how it differs from meditational practices – mindfulness is focused on the pragmatic, scientific benefits of the practice, in particular on stress reduction, he stressed. This makes it more accessible to people who may not wish to embrace the religious and spiritual elements of meditational practices.
Some studies put the estimated annual cost of stress in the economy of the US at US$300 billion. Mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) is offered by many hospitals there, although it has not really caught on in the public health sector in Singapore yet.
"These courses are really about exercising the brain," Prof. Reb said. When it comes to an area of management school training such as negotiation performance, where subtle signals are important among negotiators, the benefits of mindfulness courses can be very tangible in the business world.

"I cannot imagine a more beautiful piano sound"
THE DELIAN, USA
PENELOPE THWAITES AM is known internationally as a concert pianist and composer, broadcaster, editor and festival curator. She has won acclaim as an intensely communicative artist in an unusually wide-ranging musical career.
Born in the UK of Australian parents, Penelope grew up in Melbourne, attending Tintern Grammar. She read Music at Melbourne University, winning the Ormond Exhibition and graduating first in her final year. In the course of a post-graduate period of work, conducting and writing for musical theatre productions, Penelope moved to London, her home ever since. She studied piano with Eric Harrison, a pupil of Adele Verne, and later with the Swiss pianist, Albert Ferber, whose mentors had included Marguerite Long, Karl Liemer, and Sergei Rachmaninov. It was Ferber who encouraged Penelope to make her successful pianistic debut in 1974 at the Wigmore Hall, in a programme of Bach, Beethoven, Brahms and Mussorgsky. Many further appearances followed, with regular recitals in London's main concert halls, throughout Britain, and internationally. She has performed in over thirty-five countries and has appeared as soloist with such orchestras as the London Philharmonic Orchestra, the Philharmonia, BBC Concert Orchestra and major orchestras in Europe, the USA and Australia.
[Photo: Penelope with the LPO Arthur Benjamin Centenary 1993.]
Penelope's recordings of JS Bach (A Bach Recital original works and transcriptions) and her multi-composer Travelling Between Worlds demonstrate her wide-ranging musical passions. Chamber music and solo song recitals with fellow musicians remain a joy. A forthcoming piano trio concert for The Friends of Chopin in Canberra (when travel allows) will feature Mozart and Chopin Trios and a specially-commissioned work by Penelope in tribute to the great composer. (Media Archive gives more details).
[Photo: Rhodes House with Timothy West and Stephen Varcoe.]
From the time of her professional debut, Penelope's own work as a composer has continued – greatly encouraged by orchestration and musicianship studies with Dr William L. Reed, who became a lifelong friend and mentor. Her work includes the 1976 West End musical Ride!Ride! which has since had over forty productions world-wide, most recently in 2018 in the USA. A concert version, starring the legendary Keith Michell, was released on the SOMM label in 1999.
[Images: CD of Ride! Ride! with coverage of the UK Royal Première.]
Her choral music, songs and instrumental works are published by Bardic Edition under the Schott-Music imprint. Since the release in April 2020 of her album From Five Continents, (also on SOMM) Penelope has started to self-publish more of her works (further details under Compositions).
[Photo: Recording session with Ex Cathedra / ensemble / Jeffrey Skidmore.]
Within a wide-ranging concert repertoire, Penelope has consistently made a point of playing and promoting the music of Australia's composers. In the 70s, this was a largely unexplored area in concert repertoire. Her first recording (1980) included works by Margaret Sutherland, Dorian le Gallienne, Malcolm Williamson, Peter Sculthorpe, Arthur Benjamin and Percy Grainger.
She founded and chaired the Performing Australian Music Competition (London 2001, 2008) in which young musicians from 20 countries chose and performed works by 80 Australian composers.
[Photo: Finalists and jury for the 2008 PAMC with HRH Princess Alexandra.]
[Photo: Penelope in Percy Grainger's Music Room New York 1988.]
It was William Reed who drew her attention to the music of Australian-born Grainger (1882-1961), thereby setting in train an extraordinary and exciting journey of exploration, performance and promotion of his largely unknown musical heritage (1976 onwards ). Penelope is now recognised world-wide as a leading exponent of Grainger's music, through performances, broadcasts and over 260 tracks of recordings. She features on eight recordings in the Chandos Grainger Edition (now expanded and re-issued in 2021) where among many other tributes the Penguin Guide remarked "she understands the idiom completely…all beautifully played and recorded" In 2016, BBC Music Magazine's Geoff Brown commented: "some passions flare and fade. Others burn for ever and that is clearly the case with Penelope Thwaites' love of that maverick spirit Percy Grainger…passion undimmed, the playing's flair and precision is unchanged." In this path of discovery, Penelope has been fortunate to have met and worked with some remarkable musicians and writers on music.
Comprehensive details of these many admired and valued colleagues may be found in the Catalogue of Recordings and the Grainger pages. Penelope is editor of The New Percy Grainger Companion, the foremost survey of Grainger's music, and the many wonderful reviews are a tribute to her colleagues in this, as in many other ventures.

Penelope is a Steinway artist and a represented composer with the Australian Music Centre. She was awarded the International Grainger Society's Medallion in 1991 and was made a Member of the Order of Australia in 2001.

Ethics Watchdog's Donation Page For Potential MN Senate Run Lacks FEC Disclosures (UPDATE)
CREW has regularly filed complaints with the FEC over infractions by campaigns and committees
Richard Painter / Painter for US Senate Facebook
Joe Schoffstall - March 9, 2018 12:00 PM
UPDATE 2:00 P.M.: Painter's committee responded following publication saying that the disclaimers are at the very end of the contribution process. The disclaimers are not on the landing page of the donation form, which is the below screenshot included in this article.
Richard Painter, the vice-chair of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW), a left-wing ethics watchdog group that has regularly filed complaints with the Federal Election Commission, lacks the FEC disclaimers on the contribution page of his recently launched exploratory committee for a potential Senate run in Minnesota.
Painter, a self-described Republican and vocal Trump critic, announced Wednesday that he had launched an exploratory committee to test the waters on his chances to win the seat that was previously held by Democrat Al Franken.
"If I choose to enter this race, it will be to fix the problem of corruption in our government at the federal level," Painter said at a news conference.
Painter's group, CREW, has regularly filed complaints with the FEC for failures of other campaigns and committees throughout the years. However, the contribution page of his own exploratory committee's website lacks the required FEC disclaimers to solicit contributions.
"An exploratory committee does not have registration or reporting requirements with the Commission as long as it is solely engaged in testing-the-waters activities," an FEC spokesperson said. "However, funds raised to 'test the waters' are subject to the contribution limits under federal campaign finance laws. Moreover, the individual who is testing the waters may not accept funds from prohibited sources."
"Once an individual is no longer 'testing the waters' and has raised or spent more than $5,000 in campaign activity, he or she is required to register as a candidate with the Commission," the spokesperson added. "Note that, when an individual decides to run for office, funds that were raised and spent to test the waters are required to be reported to the Commission. Therefore, it is prudent for an exploratory committee to comply with disclaimer requirements when soliciting contributions."
The commission reviews each possible violation on a case-by-case basis. If they deem a committee has committed a violation, possible outcomes can range from a "letter reiterating compliance obligations to a conciliation agreement, which may include a monetary civil penalty."
Painter's committee, which did not respond to a request for comment prior to publication, told the Free Beacon following publication that there is a disclaimer further in the process before any contribution is made.
Painter, a professor of corporate law at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities, has made the rounds over the past year and has become known as a vocal Trump critic. He is the current vice-chair of CREW, a liberal organization formerly led by David Brock, the founder of Media Matters who is a close ally of the Clintons.
Painter's group is an approved funding organization of the Democracy Alliance, according to the New York Times. The Democracy Alliance is the largest liberal dark money donor network that was cofounded by liberal billionaire George Soros.

Q: UIWebView not scrolling in a UITabBarController I have setup 4 view controllers each containing a UIWebView and set these up as the Tabs for a UITabBarController.
The content loads fine, and the buttons are clickable, however the content of the UIWebViews refuses to scroll. UIWebView has an inbuilt UIScrollView to handle it's own scrolling, so it should just scroll right?
My initialisation code in the main file is:
tabBarController = [[MainTabBarController alloc] init];
[tabBarController.view setBounds:CGRectMake(0, 0, dev_portrait.size.width, 44)];
[tabBarController setDelegate:self];

UIImage* anImage = [UIImage imageNamed:@"53-house.png"];
UITabBarItem* theItem = [[UITabBarItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"Home" image:anImage tag:0];
WebViewController *vc1 = [[WebViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"WebController" bundle:nil];
[vc1 setup];
[vc1 setTabBarItem:theItem];

/// ... same for the other 3 WebViewControllers

NSArray* controllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:vc1, vc2, vc3, vc4, aNavigationController, nil];
tabBarController.viewControllers = controllers;
//self.window.rootViewController = tabBarController;
self.window.rootViewController = tabBarController;

When a tab is touched, it fires a function in the view controller which loads the URL:
- (void)handleURL:(NSString *)url {
    NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:url]];
    NSLog(@"Handling URL: %@", request);
    [webpage loadRequest:request];
    lastURL = url;
    [self startLoaderIndicator];

upenn nets acceptance rate
Applicants who do not submit SAT, ACT, or SAT Subject Test scores will not be at a disadvantage in the admissions process. So, you're thinking about applying to UPenn, and you're curious about your chances of admission. Out of 44,491 applications received by the school from students, only 3,740 students were accepted last year. The concentrations range from finance and accounting for individual studies, such as business analysis, social impact, and responsibility. However, because grading and ranking policies are different around the country and the globe, it is difficult to pinpoint one metric for a student's success in the classroom. Self-Reported Testing means for the middle 50 percent of admitted students. Remember, you're going to Penn for its excellent academics! This applies to first-year and transfer applicants. Your text should basically show A. Interestingly, UPenn is rank second-best Universities in the world. 46% of students submit ACT scores when applying. UPenn has four bachelor's degree schools and (12) twelve graduate and professional schools. Now, let's take a look at life outside the classroom at Penn. For this, we note the average school GPA for current students. Dean of Admissions Eric Furda said Penn takes more transfer students because the school has a larger capacity to accomodate them.

With 98.0% of students staying on for a second year, University of Pennsylvania is one of the best in the country when it comes to freshman retention. Here's a list of some of Penn's programs: At $72,584, Penn's tuition is astronomical. With a GPA of 3.88, the University of Pennsylvania requires it to be near the top of its class, well above the average. If you're in the middle of these numbers, remember that a high test score can compensate for a slightly lower GPA, and vice versa. Though, 8.4% may seem daunting or almost impossible to log in, but it is important to remember that your acceptance opportunities depend on the strength of your application profile. If you matriculate at Penn, you'll be joining a diverse class, with students from all over the U.S. and the world, and have a chance to pick from dozens of majors. The university was founded in 1740 by Benjamin Franklin who later became the first president who advocated an educational program that trained leaders in commerce, government, and public service, similar to a modern liberal arts curriculum. If you are currently a third or fourth-year student, it is difficult to change the GPA in time for college applications. hang in there! Some of Penn's more interesting majors are=: Penn's academic year begins on August 30 and ends on May 9. *according to IPEDS classification. Let's take a closer look at Penn admission statistics. The most competitive applicants have pursued a rigorous program of study and achieved top grades in the context of their school. This will help you gird up your loins before applying. Among its professional schools, the schools of business, communication, dentistry, medicine, nursing, and veterinary medicine rank in the top 5 nationally Penn's Law School is ranked 7th. Listed by home address, not filtered by citizenship. I would for sure choose Penn M&T. Each school has its own application requirements, which means you have a lot to manage. Well, we're here to help! The new SAT score in 25 percent is 1440, and the new SAT score from the 75 percent is 1560. However, each college is looking to fill its incoming class with a variety of students with different strengths, backgrounds, etc. Ideally, you have also taken several AP or IB classes to show that you can engage with academics at the university level. UPENN Acceptance Rate is very competitive at 8.4%. The UPENN Wharton School founded in 1881 through a donation from Joseph Wharton has an 8% acceptance rate. All matriculating students must provide official score reports to verify their self-reported testing prior to enrolling at the University. Also, its Design school is 8th, and its School of Education and School of Social Policy and Practice are ranked in the top 10. Performance in high school is the single most important factor in the student selection process at Penn. I searched up Wharton ED acceptance rate and the only results were for the actual University (UPenn) or Wharton's RD acceptance rates. For students who took the ACT, the 25th percentile score of successful applicants was 33, and the 75th percentile ACT score was 35. In other words, 1440 on the new SAT places it below average, while 1560 will raise it above average. Of course, there are a lot of factors in the admissions process. Students are required to take between 32 to 36 courses to graduate, including classes in their major, as well as liberal arts and language requirements.

Q: In Visual Studio 2013, how do I minify Javascript and CSS in the post-build step In Visual Studio 2013, how do I minify Javascript and CSS in the post-build step?  I'd like to have every single css and js file compress into a .min.js, or .min.css in the same folder.
I don't want to check in the minified files, but rather just have them generated post-build.

A: All solutions I found required using different filenames for the minimized versions, and a lot of extra work to switch between using the normal/minified versions.
Instead, I wanted the compressed JavaScript files to have the original names so I didn't have to change the references in my HTML markup. I could use the normal Javascript files in my development environment, then minimized versions would be automatically deployed when publishing.
I found a simple solution that does just that.
First, install Microsoft Ajax Minifier.
Then, in your Visual Studio project file, just before the closing </Project> tag add the following :
<Import Project="$(MSBuildExtensionsPath)\Microsoft\Microsoft Ajax Minifier\ajaxmin.tasks" />
<Target Name="AfterBuild" Condition="'$(ConfigurationName)'=='Release'">
  <ItemGroup>
    <JS Include="**\*.js" Exclude="**\*.min.js;obj\**\*.*" />
  <CSS Include="**\*.css" Exclude="**\*.min.css;obj\**\*.*" />
  </ItemGroup>
  <AjaxMin
    JsSourceFiles="@(JS)" JsSourceExtensionPattern="\.js$" JsTargetExtension=".jsMIN"
    CssSourceFiles="@(CSS)" CssSourceExtensionPattern="\.css$" CssTargetExtension=".cssMIN" />
</Target>
<PropertyGroup>
  <CopyAllFilesToSingleFolderForPackageDependsOn>
    CustomCollectFiles;
    $(CopyAllFilesToSingleFolderForPackageDependsOn);
  </CopyAllFilesToSingleFolderForPackageDependsOn>
</PropertyGroup>
<Target Name="CustomCollectFiles">
  <ItemGroup>
    <MinJS Include="**\*.jsMIN" />
    <FilesForPackagingFromProject Include="%(MinJS.Identity)">
      <DestinationRelativePath>%(RecursiveDir)%(Filename).js</DestinationRelativePath>
    </FilesForPackagingFromProject>
    <MinCSS Include="**\*.cssMIN" />
    <FilesForPackagingFromProject Include="%(MinCSS.Identity)">
      <DestinationRelativePath>%(RecursiveDir)%(Filename).css</DestinationRelativePath>
    </FilesForPackagingFromProject>
  </ItemGroup>
</Target>

What does the above code do? When you publish in Visual Studio, this code will find every .js and .css file in your source, and create a minified copy using the extension .jsMIN and .cssMIN. It will ignore files that are already minified. Then it will copy these minified files to the deployment folder, using the original file names.
Voilà! You just published minified JS/CSS files, while your original files stay intact on your development environment.
Optional:
Want Ajax Minifier to be packaged with your project? From the Ajax Minifier install folder, you can move AjaxMin.dll and AjaxMinTask.dll directly into your source directory. I put them in my App_Data folder. Once they're somewhere in your source, in Visual Studio right-click them, select Include in Project, and also change their Build Action property to None.
Then in the code I included above, change
<Import Project="$(MSBuildExtensionsPath)\Microsoft\Microsoft Ajax Minifier\ajaxmin.tasks" />
to
<UsingTask TaskName="AjaxMin" AssemblyFile="$(MSBuildProjectDirectory)\App_Data\AjaxMinTask.dll" />
Done.
A troubleshooting tip:
My main code above executes AfterBuild and only when the configuration is Release. That's so it will only run during a publish. If your configuration is named something else, or you want it to run in other circumstances, modify the code as needed.

A: With Microsoft Ajax Minifier you could create powershell script to create minified versions of all files in given folder and add it to Post-build events.
Example for js files(it will be similar for css):
Get-ChildItem *.js -Exclude *.min.js |
    Foreach-Object{
    $file = [io.fileinfo]$_.Name
    ajaxmin $file.Name -out "$($file.Name).min$($file.Extension)"
}

SOL MISSING AGAIN..WITH HURT ANKLE
SOL CAMPBELL last night delivered another blow to Arsenal after being ruled out of their Champions League trip to Real Madrid.
John CrossChief Football Writer
The centre-half, 31, has returned to training this week but cannot kick a ball because of an ankle injury, as revealed in Mirror Sport. It is a blow for boss Arsene Wenger because he will lack experience for the daunting trip to Madrid on February 21. The club have a crippling injury list with only fit-again Freddie Ljungberg ready to return for tomorrow's clash with Bolton.
Campbell went missing for five days after substituting himself at half-time during the West Ham game - in which he sustained the ankle injury - and even Wenger could see the funny side despite the club still having eight defenders out.
Wenger said: "You will laugh, Sol has come back but he is out now because of a foot problem. He played two or three weeks with it but the injury became worse against West Ham.
"We had a scan and he will be out for two or three weeks. He cannot kick the ball at the moment. It is an ankle injury but not a ligament problem. It is bone bruising.
"Kerrea Gilbert just started to practice again today but he will be short. The good news is that Alex Song is back. He played at centre-back for Bastia so he could be available.
"Freddie Ljungberg is back but Robin van Persie is not because of his broken toe. We have decided to rest him this week." Wenger's injury list includes Campbell, Ashley Cole (thigh), Gael Clichy (foot), Pascal Cygan (hamstring), Lauren (knee), Kerrea Gilbert (back), Robin van Persie (toe) Emmanuel Eboue and Kolo Toure (both African Nations Cup).

Breaking Up :: Lovers in a Dangerous Time
March 28, 2018 / Jim Hancock
Dr. Matthew A Sutton, with his old pal, John Birch (photo by Daniel Silliman)
UPDATE: This event is now free, thanks to the kindness of visionary sponsors!
I don't need to tell you these are dangerous times. Our Union may not face physical peril — we all hope — but as a nation, we are in a profound relational crisis.
Americans have entered into a trial separation. Could we be heading for divorce?
We've had break ups before… every generation's got it's own disease, and I guess the 60s is mine — civil rights, Viet Nam, Watergate, Richard Nixon's resignation and unconditional pardon… none of that ever completely healed… I mean, we haven't completely healed from the Great Breakup of the 1860s have we…. The nation moved back in together, but we never really patched up our differences. These things leave a mark.
Now, once again, we're in danger. Something has died at a fundamentally personal level. Where, once, we sent our ideological champions to fight it out in the newspapers and legislatures, now we're screaming directly at each other on social media and actively otherizing fellow citizens and neighbors.
We can hardly remember being close enough to lean on each other, as we did for about a minute following the 9/11 attacks. What was that… just 17 years ago?
Now, like rabid sports fans we proudly flaunt our stereotypes – wear them like flags — Red State / Blue State; Pro Choice / Pro Life; Gay / Straight; Black Lives Matter / All Lives Matter….
These days, all we have to do is identify our home team, and the conversation is essentially over — we bellow our own fight songs at top volume and pretend the other side doesn't even belong on the field.
The satirical magazine The Onion summed it up: "Stereotypes are a real time-saver."
What does this have to do with Hack the Ministry?
There came a moment when my old friend Todd Hunter and I chose very different paths. I stopped attending church and Todd became an Anglican Bishop. End of story, right?
Not right. Regardless of our differences, we've continued crossing lines and working with people both inside and outside traditional church settings and, perhaps more importantly, we're both passionate about helping young followers of Jesus avoid some of the mistakes we made — what we playfully refer to as, "saving them 10 years of stupidity."
This is why Todd and I organized a Hack The Ministry Pop-Up event for the end of the week after Easter.
Recently, we became aware of a young history professor at Washington State University, Dr. Matthew Avery Sutton — Todd found him through a book called American Apocalypse: A History of Modern Evangelicalism.
Matthew has spent years researching and writing about the outsized role evangelical/apocalyptic teaching has played in our national politics for the past 150 years. You read that right - not just the 50 years since the rise of the Moral Majority but the past 150 years.
Todd and I think Matthew's insight into how this history of political engagement contributes to where we are in this moment is very important — important for old-timers like us, and for helping young leaders get clarity on what kind of followers-of-Jesus they want to be, what kind of leaders they want to be in the kingdom of God, and what kind of Americans they want to be as they live all that out. So we asked Matthew to come to Seattle to think together for a couple of days.
That's why I hope you'll make time to be part of of this event, and bring some of the young people who trust you for direction, guidance and mentoring.
p.s. I borrowed the phrase, "lovers in a dangerous time" from the songwriter, Bruce Cockburn. He ends "Lovers" with this:
When you're lovers in a dangerous time
Sometimes you're made to feel as if your love's a crime
Nothing worth having comes without some kind of fight
Got to kick at the darkness 'til it bleeds daylight
That's what hacking the ministry is about … loving God and our neighbors enough to keep kicking the darkness 'til it bleeds daylight. People who show up in Hack the Ministry conversations and gatherings are inventing the future by hacking the best of what was with the best of what is — and we aren't waiting for permission.
If that sounds inviting, include yourself in.

Connecting these empty lots and parking lots (visible on the satellite image) should be a priority.
A new street would activate and provide more window frontage on blocks that are currently far too wide, therefore tremendously increasing the potential for real estate development and new tax revenue for the city.
Models can be found from elsewhere in New Haven, for example, the Temple Street Plaza, which breaks down a large block into a series of pathways connecting College, Chapel, Temple and Crown. What makes cities successful these days are the "nooks and crannies" like these.
Other small streets in New Haven have since disappeared due to urban renewal. For example, Pitkin Plaza, now home to 360 State, used to be a small street.
See here for additional discussion of the idea, recently presented by architect George Knight: http://newhavenindependent.org/archives/2008/02/knight_blaze_ne.php The proposed street should be extended all the way to the Coliseum Site and perhaps tie in, through an indoor arcade, to the Federal Plaza (former Court Street) located just north of Chapel, between Orange and Church.
Image of possible ground floor plan.
A perfect place to build the kind of "cosmopolitan canopies" suggested by preeminent Urban Sociologist Elijah Anderson, author of "Code of the Street" and "Against the Wall: Poor, Black, and Male."
Examples: Public markets such as Reading Terminal; rec centers; urban gardens; interpretative centers; and uses tied to the new Gateway College being built for 10,000 students across the street.
Scale diagram of the area.
Green Star = Non-historic structure that could be repurposed or demolished in order to create increased density along the street.
Yellow = Open parking lots available for new street, new plazas and/or new construction.
helps to name the street first, sometimes.
naming highways the "patriot expressway" or "roosevelt drive" allowed planners in the 1950s to bulldoze entire cities in order to build freeways, because nobody was willing to speak out against a "patriot" highway or a road named after a president.
what are some good names for this?
I believe this would create natural mixed-affordability housing, with more affordable being interior in the alleys and also help boost overall property value by improving the walkability and adding more facades.
If the street had on-street parking (perhaps even on both sides), it could potentially do the job of both a street and a parking lot at the same time.
please post sketches here of how the buildings and streets might be laid out.
I am going to forward on to Alex Marathas one of the property developers and see if he will chime in.
Another meeting next week to discuss. Feel free to write downtownnewhaven (one word) at gmail if interested.
I have a feeling this issue will be open for a while, unless the economy gets significantly better. The former Coliseum Site doesn't seem to be moving yet because of holdups at the train station TOD, the legal issues with Northside Development are ongoing, and even Federal Plaza is currently being used for parking.
However, if folks want to contribute better sketches of the area and what it could look like as a new street, we could mount a small public exhibition to help build support for the idea.
How's this one going ???
Do you realize it is actually totally absurd ?
No progress on this yet, "Guest" - last I heard, some of the properties are still involved in a legal action related to the fire at the site. It might be in the City's best interest to settle that soon, so that this block doesn't continue to look like a giant set of gaping teeth.
It's hardly absurd, given that other towns and cities do things like this all the time.
This settlement opens the way for a new street and retail / living area to be developed.
Hope the new street will be accommodated.

Shay Benhamou Highlights Global Biotechnology Trends for 2021 and Beyond
The biotechnology industry is thriving and according to experts like Shay Benhamou, it will expand more in the next few years to reach a whopping value of $775 billion. Current events, such as the COVID-19 pandemic has certainly spurred this growth, but it is also because of increased financial support due to promising tests and results of new medical treatments for an array of illnesses. Modern biotechnology is focused on medicine and government research agencies, multinational pharmaceutical companies and small startups are developing new treatment options for complex and rare diseases. They are also conducting genetic tests for better identification of inherited diseases.
Some of the other applications of biotechnology include environmental science, alternative energy and agriculture. There are different career options available to those who are interested in this field. Whether you are new to biotech or are looking to expand your existing role, Shay Benhamou has highlighted the emerging trends in biotechnology in 2021 that you should know about:
Use of Next-Generation Computing Technology
Technology has been the core of biotech. The introduction of advanced computing technology, such as artificial intelligence and machine learning enables companies in expanding the scale and scope of their research and boost the efficiency of the manufacturing process. This can help in cutting down the time required for biotech companies to bring new products to the market. For instance, Shay Benhamou highlights that the ability of analyzing large sets of data in medicine has enabled drugmakers in identifying treatments according to the cause of the disease.
This can potentially reduce 90% of the failure rate of developing new medicines and a price tag of $2.6 billion. Furthermore, as per Shay Benhamou, a number of innovations in biotechnology have become possible with the evolution of cloud computing. This technology helps in running applications through the cloud, thereby enabling companies to store and analyze data without having to invest in expensive computer hardware. Early-stage startups can benefit from this, as it reduces their operating expenses, and more established companies can also allocate their resources in a cheaper way.
Increased collaboration with stakeholders
The ability of supporting collaboration amongst stakeholders is another perk of cloud computing. These stakeholders can be different organizations, such as smaller companies, multinational firms, government research organizations and academic institutions. The research process is expected to become open to a large number of shareholders and this is all thanks to software tools designed to support communication, virtual meetings and data sharing. Due to these tools, groups are able to work together, regardless of their location.
The transformation of clinical trials
According to Shay Benhamou, the clinical trial process has been transformed due to an array of technological advances. There was a time when these trials were a manual process. The trial participants had to go to a clinic in-person for receiving their treatment and recording their side effects and symptoms on paper. Furthermore, drugmakers had to recruit a substantial number of participants for getting the correct sample size, or heavy investment in marketing resources was needed for recruiting the right patients for treating a rare disease.
However, as said earlier by Shay Benhamou, the world of clinical trials has evolved and is now heavily digitized. This has helped biotech companies in testing treatments on more patients, but in less time. A great example was witnessed in November 2019 when Invitae, a medical genetics company announced that it was conducting a trial with Apple Watch. The purpose was to use the biometric data collected by the wristwatch and the outcome of genetic tests for determining the genes that could result in cardiovascular disease.
Thanks to this advancement, the trial is accessible to a large number of people and helps researchers in excluding the patients that don't fit the criteria for the trial. Moreover, Shay Benhamou believes that machine learning can also have a significant impact on the future of clinical trials. Data from the current trials can be quickly analyzed by biotech companies for predicting the effectiveness of the treatments as accurately as possible. Also, the data of the previous trials could also be revisited to check if anything was missed, or if an existing drug may have different or new uses.
Increase in personalized treatment of rare diseases
Genetic sequencing has experienced a major reduction in its cost. In 1990, the Human Genome Project cost around $2.7 billion, but it has reduced to less than $300 nowadays and is expected to go as low as $100 in the near future. As per Shay Benhamou, this allows companies to do extensive screening of all the participants in a clinical trial and targeting interventions. Thanks to this, they are able to develop personalized treatment plans as well as targeted therapies. These can be a lot more effective than therapies that are less-specific, as they focus on the molecular and genetic makeup of a patient.
A key area where targeted therapies are being used is cancer. Blood cancer like Leukemia is a prominent example, as a treatment known as CAR T-cell therapy focuses on the immune cells of a patient, causing it to 'attack tumors'.
Need for higher agricultural yields
As per the United Nations, there will be a 25% increase in the global population in the next 30 years. It is a given that a growing population would boost the demand for food as well, not only for people, but also for livestock. In addition, there is also increased pressure on land as urban areas are expanding onto areas used for farming. Shay Benhamou states that these global trends give biotechnology the opportunity of improving agricultural yields.
For instance, gene editing could be used for producing varieties of corn or wheat that produce more grain within a smaller space or grow in harsher conditions, as opposed to other varieties that offer the same nutritional value. Furthermore, Shay Benhamou believes that developing biological pesticides can provide protection to crops without doing any environmental damage or using harsh chemicals.
These trends in biotechnology indicate that the field is moving forward rapidly and will continue to do so, given the increase in demand.

Read sample: When Did Napa Wineries Become Theme Parks For Adults?


For those of you that have been following my blog for a while, something must be pretty clear by now: I have way too many hobbies. As such I always have too little time on my hands, but I am also never having the problem of being bored. I used to be a very fanatic online gamer, but those days are pretty much behind me now. These days I am back into one of my older hobbies: playing solo boardgames. When I tell people that I play boardgames by myself, I usually get asked the questions: How does that work, and is that any fun? Let me start by answering the last question first. Yes it can be a lot of fun. It really isn't all that different from playing a computergame on your own. These days, a lot more fantasy and scifi boardgames are coming out, that have solorules included. There are even games being released that have been designed for only a single player.
As for the first question, how does it work? Well, there really is not an easy answer to that question. With so many games on the market these days, every game works differently, though some have overlapping features. Starting below, I have made a personal top five (okay, six) of Boardgames that I really enjoy playing by myself. This list is by no means complete, and it just contains some of my favorite games, but there are a lot more games out there that I enjoy playing solo as well.
There are currently three Legendary Encounters sets out, Aliens, Predator and Firefly. Being based on a few of my favorite franchises definitely is a plus for me. Basically what you do in these games is play through a movie (or in the case of Firefly an episode), where you try and complete a number of objectives. You start with a deck of weak cards, and as the game progresses you acquire more powerful ones. Hence the name deckbuilding game. With these cards you try to beat the enemies the game throws at you, as well as complete the missions. Being an enormous Predator and Alien fan, I absolutely love these games.
Though technically I guess you could say it is not a boardgame, it is a game that uses dice. The best way to describe these books, is a novel in which you are the hero. Every gamebook contains a story that presents you with a choice you have to make at certain points. For example, will you head off in the dark tunnel to the right, or take a safer path through the forest? These books are a lot of fun, and if you love reading this is definitely something you might want to check out.
Xenoshyft is another deckbuilding game, but a really tough one. You take command of a group of heavily armed soldiers that are trying to protect a mining corporation from bloodthirsty aliens. The artwork in this game is absolutely spectacular, and it also presents a really tough challenge. You have to plan very carefully and protect your base at all cost. If you lose your base, you lose the game. With the aliens growing in power every round, the game also get's more difficult by the minute. Even though I have lost a fair amount of games with this one, I still love playing it.
One of my favorite franchises combined with a boardgame, nothing get's better than that. In Star Trek Expeditions you take on the roles of Captain Kirk and his crew, as they try and overcome challenges on a planet that is considering to join the Federation. This game has all the things you expect to find in a Star Trek television episode: starship combat, political intrique, espionage and some very interesting missions. The only downside of this game is the lack of expansions, something that this game would definitely benefit from. Still, it is a lot of fun to play, and with some very cool miniatures included, this game looks the part as well.
Having recently done a review on this game (you can find it here ), this game has turned into one of my alltime favorites. It comes as close to starring in your own Indiana Jones movie as you can get. You are an adventurer racing around the world to recover ancient artifacts. In your journey you will encounter a lot of things, from ancient temple traps, to vile people who are trying to stop at nothing to prevent you from reaching your goals. This game oozes atmosphere, and is a blast to play.
The last game on my list, Elder Sign is a dice/cardgame based on the Ctulhu mythos. You take on the role of an explorer who has to prevent an ancient evil being from rising up, and plunging the world into darkness. Searching in a dusty and ancient museum, you try to find and locate Elder Signs, that will stop the Ancient One from rising. Along the way, evil creatures, traps and other horrors will try to prevent you from reaching your objective. And….you may not be able to hold on to your sanity, as the increasing horrors you witness, might take their toll on your mind. Great stuff, and another one of my alltime favorite games.
A boardgame will always be the most fun with more players. I definitely won't deny that fact, as the fun of interacting with each other, can never be matched by a solo game. Having said that, I do think that solo boardgames have improved over the years. As such they are still a lot of fun to play, even if you are on your own, and especially with games driven by some kind of storyline, you feel a sense of satisfaction when you manage to beat the game. Luckily there are more games arriving every month (not that I did not have enough games yet already lol), but this does keep things interesting. If you have never played a sologame before, a few of the games in my list, might be worth checking out. Thank you for reading, and see you on the next post.


The National Youth Jazz Collective will run sessions in beginner, intermediate and advanced groups led by Issie Barrett, Mick Foster, Simon Colam and Mark Hodgson. Music will be learnt from scratch with the focus being on improvisation.
In the evening each group will present the results of their workshop interspersed with music from the NYJC.
Please note that booking is not necessary for the free evening performance.

New Fairy Tale: Main Stream Media Pushes More Chimera/Bestiality/god Worship In Latest Films
dericiousknitty August 31, 2017 August 31, 2017 Eyes to See, Main Stream Media
VENICE, Italy — A majestic 1960s movie palace, glistening in the rain. A derelict apartment awash in antiquity. A mute woman (Sally Hawkins, lovely as always) and her elderly gay caretaker (Richard Jenkins, ditto) parked in front of the tube. The Shape of Water casts a spell over its audience from its opening moments and holds you in its thrall long after the credits have rolled.
Premiering at the 74th edition of the Venice Film Festival, the film tells the tale of Elisa, a "princess without a voice" whose vocal chords were slashed as a child, rendering her mute. Her days are filled with longing, both for the romance she sees in the Hollywood films she adores and to be accepted unconditionally. When she's not pleasuring herself in the bathtub or shooting the breeze (via ASL) with her neighbor/father figure Giles, a failed gay artist who also knows a thing or two about society's fiercely judgmental gaze, Elisa works as a janitor at a top-secret government laboratory on the outskirts of Baltimore, mopping up piss with her co-worker Zelda (Octavia Spencer), whose wisecracking helps get them through the day.
This soul-crushing routine is soon disrupted by the arrival of a cattle-prod-wielding government agent named Strickland (Michael Shannon) hauling precious cargo in a metal-plated water tank. The cargo, it turns out, is a mysterious sea creature that was discovered deep in the Amazon, where the natives worshipped it as a god. Resembling a cross between the merman Abe Sapien from Hellboy (also played by Doug Jones) and the Creature from the Black Lagoon, this mesmeric being can breathe in and out of water, and possesses regenerative powers. It can also communicate, and before long Elisa has developed a close bond with the creature, teaching it to sign, feeding it eggs, and playing it music during her mopping breaks. Their relationship is akin to Ann Darrow and Kong, albeit with considerably more romantic tension.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XFYWazblaUA
A premise such as this—mute woman falls for humanoid swamp thing in 1960s Baltimore—would seem absurd were it not guided by the deft hand of Guillermo Del Toro, who realized a similar (albeit more platonic) union in his 2006 masterwork Pan's Labyrinth. And, echoing that film's anti-fascist notes, The Shape of Water has plenty to say about the harsh prejudices of '60s America, from Strickland speaking to Zelda about "your kind" to a cute counterman brutally rebuffing Giles' advances. Nowhere is this critique more pointed than in Strickland's treatment of what he calls The Asset, viciously beating and prodding it into submission.
Strickland and his bureaucratic overlords hope to vivisect the creature in order to use its otherworldly abilities in the arms race against the Soviet Union, but the Reds have a card up their sleeve as well in Dr. Hoffstetler (Michael Stuhlbarg), aka Dimitri, a scientist working at the facility torn between his allegiances to country and science. He provides a fascinating foil to Strickland, another man chewed up (quite literally, with two decaying fingers) and spit out by the government and who longs for the simple life.
The Shape of Water is bursting at the seams with remarkable visual flourishes, long a Del Toro staple. Drops of water on a bus window merge, swimming into a sharp dissolve; woman and creature embrace in a pool of water, her pale body wrapped around his like a moving painting; a vintage musical dream sequence straight out of The Artist. It is never less than magnificent.
Del Toro and co-writer Vanessa Taylor (Game of Thrones) also do an expert job at fleshing out each and every character here, aided by a cast of first-rate actors in Shannon, Jenkins, Stuhlbarg, and Spencer. But it's Hawkins who makes this film truly soar, turning in a voiceless performance every bit as beguiling as her cheery prattler in Happy-Go-Lucky. It is in her shimmering eyes and broad smile that we see a woman who finally feels heard; who is basking in the glow of acceptance found in the unlikeliest of places. Even as things get, well, physical between woman and sea creature, Elisa's love—and her journey—remain true. Here, Del Toro has crafted an enchanting fairy-tale for the ages.

Embarrassing Ivanka Trump "Not Wanted" poster plastered over New York City
Like it or not, Ivanka Trump and her husband Jared Kushner will be leaving the environs of the White House come January 2oth.

10 Types of Women You Should Never Marry
Nueey
Recent reports indicate that rather than return to New York City — where they lived before the four-year debacle that was the presidency of Ivanka's father — the couple is looking to set up their household in the now less-hostile territory of nearby New Jersey.
One of the reasons likely for Ivanka's reluctance to go back to the family's old stomping grounds in the premier metropolis in the nation is the ostracism they now face among their New York City social circle after having been intimately involved in the inner workings of the most disastrous and corrupt presidency in American history.
After all, when you've been associated with the caging of migrant children after separating them from their families and have been knee-deep in the failed response to the COVID-19 pandemic that so devastated New York City during the initial stages of the outbreak, your old acquaintances won't forget.
If it wasn't perfectly clear to Ivanka that she would not be able to easily resume her old life as a rich and entitled socialite in New York, two comedians from the city have started a new campaign to hammer the point home.
Jason Selvig and Davram Stiefler, a comedy duo who perform as The Good Liars, have plastered the walls and lampposts of the city with faux "Wanted" posters featuring a picture of Ivanka Trump emblazoned with a prominent "NOT WANTED" notice.
In the style of traditional "Wanted" posters posted by law enforcement agencies, these fake notices feature a description of the person pictured in addition to their visage, in this case including details like " Hair: Blond," "Accent: Fake Posh," and "Eyes: Dead Behind."
In an even more devastating putdown of Ivanka's husband Jared, the posters also include this biographical detail: "Married to Slenderman? Yes."
The posters underline the sentiment behind statements made by people who have in the past socialized with the now shunned couple.
"[The President] was so awful and divisive about New York, saying it's a nightmare or that it's empty, or a has-been," a New York writer who has socialized with the couple in the past told CNN. "No one here is going to forget that. To even come back here after everything he's said, it's not going to work."
As for Jason Selvig and Davram Stiefler, this is not the first Trump-related prank that the Good Liars have perpetrated.
The duo was also behind the purchase of the web domain DonaldJTrump2024.com, filling the mock campaign web site for the next presidential election with messages making fun of Donald Trump's election loss, including one reading "Trump is a Loser."
While the "NOT WANTED" posters may actually be mild satire at Ivanka and Jared's expense, the animosity toward the Trump family in New York City and many other urban areas is real.
Until Donald Trump, his family, and his Republican enablers are held to account for the damage that they inflicted upon the United States of America, they should expect no warm embraces from those who had to suffer on account of their crimes.

Anneli Lort The Sweet Spot
BookishThings posted a topic in Historical & Romance: Authors and Books
The Sweet Spot, by Anneli Lort, caught my eye recently, during the excitement of The Open Championship, and it's quick ascent into the top 10 of the sports fiction chart, but it is, undeniably, a romance novel. The Sweet Spot tells the tale of strong female lead, Olivia, who is recovering from an unhealthy relationship and an unforgiving heartache. She moves out of busy London to heal in the countryside, taking a career opportunity to ghostwrite a globally famous, golfing legend's autobiography, Sebastian. The setting of Appleton Vale is so beautifully described that this book could truly heal anybody's heartache with its idyllic nature, and the struggles of being in a new place and overcoming a bad relationship are well-portrayed. The characters of this romance novel are wonderfully developed, their quirks, histories, motives and weaknesses outlined early on. Sexy Sebastian is witty and alluring, providing Olivia exactly the distraction she needs, until his feelings for her begin to overcome them both. Whether you're interested in golf or not, I feel that the tension and competitive narrative of the book, as it develops, is a great pace changer and makes a great page-turner. I could not put the book down! If you're looking for a peaceful feel-good setting with a romantic twist, and like authors such as Jilly Cooper and Joanna Trollope, you'll love this! And, if you can't get enough, I hear it's a series and book 2 is on the way!

The cover should have warned me what lay ahead, but the premise of a Northern Ireland Troubles thriller with links to current day Byron Bay sounded intriguing. Halley meets Aidan, who is on a mission for his brother Liam. Halley, it seems, has not always been Halley the Mullumbimby cafe owner and had some involvement with Liam on a paramilitary mission in London some years back... The novel starts out like a pretty standard romance - Kimberley Brown's Trusting a Stranger comes to mind - as Halley is persuaded by Aidan to turn her life upside down. The back story seems incomplete - why would Aidan want to meet Halley? How did he find Halley? Why is Halley in hiding anyway? As the details start to fill in, they don't seem quite right. Anyone with half an idea of Northern Irish politics will spot that the wrong people seem to be doing the wrong things at the wrong time. The timelines seem to be impossible to follow, with Liam and Aidan and Halley/Megan moving backwards and forwards from Australia to Europe and back again, lack of clarity of motivation at any given point, Liam being in prison and out of prison and in prison again seemingly at will, lack of clarity about the mission, when it was supposed to take place, who was involved and what their roles were. And as explanations are offered for why some of the details seem off, other details unravel behind them. This is not written like a thriller - way too much focus on Aidan's sinewy body and hot breath - and seems a bit plotty for a romance. It tries to do both but succeeds at neither. Sorry Laura Bloom, this really wasn't my cup of Nambarrie. **000
Cara's Twelve
Chantel_Seabrook posted a topic in Writers' Corner
Raised in the backwater province of Crowthorne, Cara finds her fate bound to a system she despises and a goddess she no longer believes in. When it becomes clear that the heir to the Elbian throne has found disfavor in the eyes of the goddess Annul, Cara is ordained by blood and required by law to take her cousin's place as heir apparent. One man from each of the twelve provinces are chosen by the royal council to pledge their lives and swords as champions and consorts of the future queen. From these men, Cara must choose the future king of Elbia. Before she is able to take her place on the throne, Cara and her Twelve must visit each province and perform a sacred ceremony, one that will make Cara question everything she thought was real. Cara soon realizes that not all of the men who swore to protect her are what they seem, and there are those who would use her as a tool to gain power.
Jan Minkman The Space In Between
DiDonovan posted a topic in Historical & Romance: Authors and Books
I noted there's no forum for paranormal romance - and perhaps this is a good thing, because Jan Minkman's new book, while more easily billed by these two names, is more than either. So - While, for categorization's sake, The Space In Between is a 'paranormal romance', don't let that assignment fool you: it's much more, and readers anticipating a breezy, light, supernatural love tale might find themselves quite pleasantly challenged by a story line that defies quick and dirty categorization or a fast leisure read. This is partially due to its setting - Wales - and the fact that in such a wild and woolly world, woods wiccans and mysticism practically oozes from the trees and the long history of a people with close ties to the land. It's also due to the efforts of Jen Minkman to provide more than the usual one-dimensional protagonist too often seen in 'paranormal romance' stories: for Moira is Welsh through and through and represents many of her people's real personas, from her bilingual ability to speak Welsh at home and English outside of it to harsh language. While this might put off some readers, it will be a breath of fresh air to those who will immediately perceive that what follows will be anything but predictable and smooth. The addition of Moira's struggle with ADHD is perhaps one of the strongest pieces of the story, curiously enough. It lends an authenticity and a vulnerability to the main protagonist that's not often seen in your standard paranormal or romance story, and it invites readers to learn more of yet another world: that of the ADHD sufferer and their choices. So, for categorization's sake, I'd call The Space In Between a 'paranormal romance' - but really, it's so much more. It's about finding amazement and personal power in life, and about making choices that lead to new connections. Add in the Welsh cultural insights and you have a 'paranormal romance' that's a cut above your usual love story.
Big In The Village?
ajhsharp posted a topic in Writers' Corner
Forgive this preamble to announcing my book release and thanks for bearing with me. In 2004 the novelist Tony Saint lamented, in the Telegraph, that he was not even the fifth best novelist in Waverton after his first novel had failed to reach the shortlist of the annual Waverton Good Read Award. Never heard of the WGRA? You are not alone. A little history, then. A family doctor in the village of La Cadière d'Azure, France, decided it might give his patients something to think about beyond their ailments if he got them all reading and voting on the latest novels. So Le Prix De La Cadière d'Azure was born and, although the prize is now discontinued, it inspired enterprising people from the village of Waverton (pop. 2000) in Cheshire to do the same. Publishers are invited to send debut novels by British authors to be read by dozens of villagers who create a long list, then a short list and then – voila – the winner. It's one of the few literary prizes run by readers and is now in its eleventh year. Previous winners have included Mark Haddon for The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, Maria Lewycka for A History of Tractors in Ukrainian, and Tom Rob Smith for Child 44. There are also one or two winning authors that you've never heard of like … ahem … myself. The Waverton win came (a cheque and a splendid dinner – thank-you, Waverton) and went but then calamity: my publisher ceased trading and my literary agent changed career. I just hope it wasn't all my fault. Despite the below-the-national-radar win and the collapse of my marketing and publishing support, I was delighted that out there, beyond the baying of the city, the steady readers of rural England had liked my novel. They say that the British comedian Norman Wisdom was big in Albania when he was unknown elsewhere and I like to think that I was once big in Waverton. I had no time in any case to think about the lack of national interest because in the villages of my home patch it was all bouquets and elderflower champagne. Deep in rural Rutland, in mink-and-manure Manton, villagers filled the village hall for my author talk and in Kibworth in Leicestershire the effervescent owner of the Kibworth Bookshop corralled locals into the pub for a book group evening over gin and beer. In tiny Arnesby, where thatch is as rampant as roses, I fielded questions that good family folk really want to know from an author, such as what his mother thinks of the swearing in his novel. In book groups in Knighton, a village long ago swallowed up by Leicester, we drank glass after glass of wine until we'd all forgotten why we were sitting there with a novel on our laps. In Woodhouse Eves, retirement village for philosophers it seemed, I was probably out of my depth. Nevertheless, I was flattered and grateful for those evenings with readers. Which finally leads me to say that my second novel, Fortunate, set in a Midlands town and in Zimbabwe, is now out. I'm conscious of the fact that it is just one of well over 100,000 books to be published this year in the UK but I will be more than happy to be big in a village - any village – once again.

BLITZ to Disband + Best Album Announced
Winona Peace 6/22/2015 02:29:00 AM blitz , News
Some sad news for fans of BLITZ - on June 1st the band announced they would cease activities in November of this year. Before they disband they will hold one last one-man tour entitled for U. They show will occur over three concert dates on October 31st, November 2nd, and November 7th. This live at Shinjuku BLAZE November 7th would be BLITZ's final show together.
Blitz LAST ONE MAN TOUR『for U』
10/31 - HOLIDAY NEXT NAGOYA
11/2 - Osaka RUIDO
11/7/2015 - Shinjuku BLAZE
The band and staff had posted a message to the fans, which you may read below:
:: Announcement from Blitz::
We hope this summer announcement finds you well. Blitz will be disbanding at their Shinjuku Blaze live on November 7 (Sat), 2015. We sincerely thank our fans for supporting us these three years as well as everyone involved. We will continue to put all our energies into Blitz' activities until the end and hope you will give us the same kind support you always have for the remainder of our activities too.
First of all, sorry for such a sudden announcement right off the bat like that. This is the answer we arrived at after spending the longest time trying to decide and talking about it over and over again with the other members. It makes me really happy to think that we made it this far without changing members. Back when Blitz first started, none of the members knew what we were doing. Staying in a band for three years probably isn't ever easy, but we somehow managed to find a way to keep it going all this time. Of course, there were plenty of times when we hit a wall. But we were still able to come this far, and that's thanks to all our fans who stuck with us. I'm truly grateful for that. Thank you for always being there by my side! Thank you for all the smiling faces! Without a doubt, the three years or so I performed with Blitz will be some of my life's fondest memories. I'm going to make every last effort for our last few months of shows so please do the same and come see us play. Together we'll keep on smiling like never before―right to the end! — GAKU
It's such a sudden announcement, I'm not sure how to begin, but I'll write about how I feel anyways. At our Shinjuku Blaze show on November 7, 2015, Blitz is going to disband. Looking back at us three years ago, I think we've come a long way. Blitz started out as five clueless band members who had just gathered together. Those five members worked hard every day in order to better themselves, and through the experience they gained from one-mans and through their songwriting and various other activities, they were able to grow to where Blitz is today and that's something I'm proud of. Together, the members have shared joys and sorrows, all kinds of emotions. I'm really glad that the five of us could do all this together the entire time without changing members or anyone retiring from the band. Thank you so much to all our fans who responded to the music we put out and for the support you've given us. I have nothing but gratitude for all of you. You've made me realize how much fun music really is. There's still so much more I want to say. But I think I'll put all my feelings into our remaining activities, just let that all speak for itself in the best possible way. I'll still be working hard to try to have our music reach as many people as possible right to the very end. I hope you'll keep showing us the same support you always have until the time comes, too. — Tsubaki
Sorry to everyone for the sudden surprise announcement. We would have liked to have made the journey up to the top with all of you there beside us, but our dream ends here. I'm filled with gratitude to all of the fans who supported us along the way. Thank you for *getting* our music and for making the journey together with Blitz these three years. I'm glad I continued with Blitz for this long--the band I decided would be my first and last. For me, these three years I spent with the other members and all of you will be a treasure I'm going to cherish forever, so that one day I can look back on this decision to disband and know it was a positive choice. For the limited time we have left, I'm going to take it all head-on and just give it 100% of everything I've got in me. I hope that you all come out to see us and give us your full support right up to the final day. We'll be going to see you with one-mans as well as organizing events all over the country so let's have a good time. I really hope you'll be there to support us to the very end so that our 11/7 Shinjuku Blaze final show will be a massive success. — Mihal
Blitz has made its sudden disbandment announcement. For the past three years we've been active on the good ship Blitz since April 2, 2012, and in that time I've toured throughout Japan, and met fans, made new friends, staff, people in the industry... so many different people! We've played a good few hundred shows now, and with each one I've gotten to see you all smile and enjoy yourselves, and yours truly smiling right back! We've got about five months left till Shinjuku Blaze on November 7th! Although there's only a few dozen more gigs left we'll be able to do, I hope to see you all there smiling like always♪ The members of Blitz were able to pull this off all while getting along epically, too―I think Blitz is an awesome band! Although a part of me feels sad about disbanding, I'm going to put everything I've got into Blitz right up to November 7th and just basically hope I chisel Blitz into your memories! — CoA
The days we spent as Blitz these three years just overflowed with happiness. To the fans we've startled or made sad with this announcement, and to the fans who'd been looking forward to where we were heading, I'm sorry. And to all of you who gave us your support, I'm full of gratitude. Us band members are really close and like family to each other. I think it's exactly that we were able to do all this with this particular members that has made it into something meaningful. Everything I wanted to express and do with Blitz, I've believe I've done at this point. I don't think a single thing we did as Blitz can be considered a mistake and I have no regrets about anything. After our Shinjuku Blaze performance at November 7th, we're entrusting the music we nurtured and developed as Blitz over to you. After November 7th, I don't know if I'll be able to see you again. So for the time that's left, too, we'll be putting in everything we've got in the way that only Blitz can, and personally I'll be doing the same. So, and maybe I'm being selfish but, I really hope that you'll come and see us all play. I'm proud that I was able to be the drummer for Blitz and that in doing so, I found a special place where I feel I can belong. — Ryo

Q: Create .NET object with DataContract from a dictionary Having a class defined:
[DataContract]
public class Command
{
        [DataMember(Name = "cmdName")]
        public string CommandName { get; set; }

        [DataMember(Name = "cmdTransactionId")]
        public string CommandTransactionId { get; set; }
}

I would like to create an instance of that class from a dictionary:
Dictionary<string, object> propertyBag = new Dictionary<string, object>();
propertyBag["cmdName"] = "cmd1";
propertyBag["cmdTransactionId"] = "1";
Command command = deserializer.Create<Command>(propertyBag);

DataContractSerializer is not working for me nor is the JavaScriptSerializer.ConvertToType as each of them is missing a piece that stop s me from creating objects in one go.

A: JavaScriptSerializer will work here with some changes:
var propertyBag = new Dictionary<string, object>();
propertyBag["CommandName"] = "cmd1";
propertyBag["CommandTransactionId"] = "1";

var serializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();
var res = serializer.Serialize(propertyBag);

var command = serializer.Deserialize<Command>(res);

I used Deserialize method instead of ConvertToType one. The second difference is more significant. A dictionary used by me contains keys which are the same as names of properties in Command class. If you don't like it you should try to write a custom JavaScriptConverter. See this question.

A: Maybe you can try this code for deserializer.Create<Command>(propertyBag):
public T Create<T>(IDictionary<string, object> propertyBag)
{
    var result = (T)FormatterServices.GetUninitializedObject(typeof(T));

    foreach (var item in from member in typeof(T).GetMembers()
                         let dataMemberAttr = member.GetCustomAttributes(typeof(DataMemberAttribute), true).Cast<DataMemberAttribute>().SingleOrDefault()
                         where dataMemberAttr != null && propertyBag.ContainsKey(dataMemberAttr.Name)
                         select new { Member = member, Value = propertyBag[dataMemberAttr.Name] })
    {
        var property = item.Member as PropertyInfo;
        if (property != null)
        {
            property.SetValue(result, item.Value, null);
            continue;
        }

        var field = item.Member as FieldInfo;
        if (field != null)
        {
            field.SetValue(result, item.Value);
            continue;
        }
    }

    return result;
}

This code is not tested - just typed here.

Watch This Anchor Describe Lady Gaga's Performance Using A Very Offensive Word
Jessica Rawden
During last night's Oscars, Lady Gaga took to the stage to perform some classic songs from the hit Sound of Music soundtrack. The performance was huge enough that it became a topic of conversation on the Fox 8 local news in Cleveland, Ohio. Unfortunately, local news anchor Kristi Capel kept declaring Lady Gaga's music to be "jigaboo." Check out the extremely awkward newscast, below.
During the segment, Capel keeps attempting to compliment Lady Gaga, saying she had no idea that Gaga had such a great voice. In fact, she says it is often hard to hear her behind the "jigaboo music" she usually prefers. The poor African American news anchor sitting next to her, Wayne Dawson, initially laughs off the comment, but then Kristi Capel uses the derogatory term, again. Many mistakes were made during this telecast.
One of two things was going on in the newscast. Either Capel is an extremely hateful person who vindictively wanted to use the word on air, or she had no idea what the word really meant. According to Capel herself, her actions were the latter. This morning, the news anchorwoman took to Twitter to apologize to a ton of individuals who called her out for misspeaking live on the air.
@John_Ferguson_ @fox8news I apologize if I offended you, I had no idea it was a word or what it meant. Thank you for watching.
— Kristi Capel (@Kristi_Capel) February 23, 2015
Even during the live video, Capel uses the derogatory term and then says "or whatever you call it," which makes it fairly clear she had no idea what she was really talking about. That doesn't make it any better for all of the educated individuals watching the segment, and it definitely doesn't make it better for poor Wayne Dawson, but at least it doesn't seem as if she was intending to spit hate on the air. (Honestly, if you want to hate on anything, let's talk about those horrible gloves Lady Gaga chose to wear to the Oscars.)
Flubs occur live on the air all of the time, but unfortunately spouting derogatory language is a bit worse than accidentally dropping an F-bomb on the air. Kristi Capel is going to have a lot of tweets and internet hate to deal with in the near future, and a lot of apologies to dish out. Quite frankly, people have been fired for much less in the past.

Fleming Island Walmart shopper says teen had knife, made sexual comments to her
By: Amber Krycka, Action News Jax
Updated: Sep 12, 2018 - 5:33 PM
A teenager is facing charges after deputies say he threatened a woman inside a Fleming Island Walmart with a knife.
WALMART: Man killed in dispute over parking space, witnesses say
"I don't know how I was able to stay calm ... and not freak out," Alis Muntain, the victim, said.
Muntain said she had her hands full at Walmart with cat food and cat litter. That's when a 14-year-old approached her and asked her how old she was.
ST. JOHNS COUNTY: Man unfazed by Taser shocks at Walmart during pill theft
"And then he said, I want you to know that I have a knife in my pocket, and I want you to have sex with me,'" Muntain said. "And then he kind of pulled it out of his pocket and showed me that there was a pocketknife inside of there."
Muntain said she couldn't believe what he just said.
"I stared at him for a second and was like is this really happening, and then I was just like, 'Are you serious?'" Muntain said.
She said she thankfully noticed a man walking at the end of the aisle, and called for help and told him what was going on.
"Just so you know, this guy has a knife in his hand and he's threatening me to use it on me if I don't have sex with him," Muntain said.
Muntain said the man told her to go get help. As she was running, she said she noticed the teen running out of the store.
Minutes later, deputies arrested him in a parking lot nearby.
"I'm just going to learn from this experience and make sure I'm not defenseless as I was in that situation," Muntain said.
