Creating Momentum for Your Project in the Age of Content Shock plus Where Should I Put My Digital Series?
Don't forget to take your rubber duckie when you move.
HBO announced this morning that it had inked a five-year deal with Sesame Workshop for future episodes of Sesame Street. This is not the death knell of the show on PBS - it will continue to air there, but new episodes will arrive only after an exclusive viewing window on HBO. Sesame Workshop will also develop a Sesame Street Muppets property and future kids educational properties specifically for HBO.
This is just another step in HBO's march to being the source for premium content for the entire family - and one more brick in its wall of digital dominance. Why do I think that?
Because viewing on traditional kids cable networks is being decimated. Because Netflix, Amazon and Hulu are becoming the platforms of choice for little monsters, who prefer their mobile devices. And because HBO Now is currently, almost exclusively, adults only.
Landing an iconic brand - possibly THE iconic brand - for kids programming sets a foundation stone for a forthcoming kids digital network, or at the very least, for a strong extension of HBO Now. It just reinforces the idea that HBO is in the business of delivering content however a consumer wants it ... many steps ahead of its cable competitors, and now on track to possibly surpass its OTT competitors, who don't have the benefit of television delivery.
Bert and Ernie? You just landed in a very nice, new building. Don't forget to tip the doorman.

ABPA strengthens protocols to protect biosecurity
The Brazilian Association for Animal Protein (ABPA) disclosed to its members, through the update of its biosecurity protocol, the recommendation to immediately suspend visits to farms, slaughterhouses and other poultry establishments in Brazil.
Posted on Dec 15 ,04:17
The decision was taken within the scope of the association's board of directors, and is valid for both Brazilians and foreigners. Only those who work directly and exclusively at the respective production unit should have authorized access.
The recommendation is valid regardless of compliance with "sanitary voids" - measures previously taken to authorize access, in which the professional from other countries fulfilled a period of quarantine to attest the absence of any contamination. ABPA also recommends that specific and emergency needs be analyzed in the light of these recommendations, and with duplication of care.
ABPA continues in a massive sectoral campaign, and has also recommended the following precautions to Brazilian poultry farmers:
Hand hygiene and change of clothes and shoes before accessing the farms, in the case of professionals with authorized access;
Disinfection of all vehicles accessing the property, whether for leisure or transport;
Hygiene of all clothes and shoes in case of returning from a trip abroad, in addition to emptying the toilet when returning to work;
Avoid contact between farm animals and other birds, especially wild birds.
According to the president of ABPA, Ricardo Santin, the entire Brazilian productive sector was called upon to intensify the measures, in order to preserve the health status of Brazil.
"It must be emphasized that Brazil does not have and has never registered Avian Influenza in its territory. In this sense, we want to reinforce the sectorial strategy to prevent the problem from entering the country's industrial production. It should be remembered that the cases registered in South America occurred on the coast, in local and migratory waterfowl. There are geographic issues that also protect our sector from this disease that only affects animals. Even so, we are on full alert to keep Brazil in its position as the world's largest exporter and second largest producer of chicken meat, in addition to being a significant producer of eggs. It is a sectoral issue, but also of interest to society, since they are two of the proteins most consumed by the Brazilian population", emphasizes Santin.
Santin also recalls that notifications of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza in wild birds or other non-industrial birds, and Low Pathogenicity in domestic or captive birds are not expected to affect the health status of the country and generate market closure, in light of the regulations of the World Organization for Animal Health (WHOA).

Macedonia And The One That (Maybe) Got Away
November 14, 2018 17:07 GMT
By Gordana Knezevic
Then-Macedonian Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski tours the newly renovated Sutka prison in Skopje in August 2009.
Macedonian authorities responded to the international escalation of their hunt for fugitive former Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski after his surprise Facebook pledge to request asylum in EU member Hungary by saying they would seek Gruevski's extradition pending confirmation of his whereabouts.
Gruevski, the once-ruling VMRO-DPMNE party's ex-leader and for nearly 10 years the head of Macedonia's government before his EU-mediated exit in 2016, had failed to show up last week to begin serving a two-year prison sentence for corruption.
Questions have inevitably arisen in Skopje over who's to blame for allowing Gruevski to leave the country. The Interior Ministry blamed the courts, which responded in turn that without a prosecutor's warrant they had no authority to arrest anyone, according to Frosina Dimeska from RFE/RL's Skopje bureau.
Defense Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Radmila Sekerinska said in a statement to the media that everyone should assume their own responsibility for the situation.
"We are not trying to put pressure on the judiciary, but everyone has to do their part and take responsibility," Sekerinska said.
But close observers of Macedonian politics warn that whoever is to blame, Gruevski's flight could harm both the government and the opposition.
Gruevski was convicted in connection with influencing the Interior Ministry in connection with the purchase of a luxury vehicle in 2012, when he was prime minister. He could face at least three more indictments related to alleged corruption and illegal wiretapping.
By turning himself into a fugitive from Macedonian justice, Gruevski risks further damaging his reputation and fostering a perception that he is a criminal rather than any sort of political martyr, says political analyst Petar Arsovski.
Gruevski's actions could also reflect badly on the credibility of state institutions and that of his own party, the Internal Macedonian Revolutionary Organization-Democratic Party for Macedonian National Unity, or VMRO-DPMNE, Arsovski adds.
The VMRO-DPMNE has claimed Gruevski is the victim of a vendetta.
"He does damage to the VMRO-DPMNE, because it is difficult to stand behind a politician who has fled before justice, despite their attempts to claim he is being politically persecuted," Arsovski says.
Political analyst Albert Musliu predicts the government won't be spared the fallout. The Interior Ministry in particular, he says, must explain itself to the public and cannot simply shift blame to a bailiff who might have failed to deliver the warrant on time.
After nearly a decade in power, Gruevski was ousted in early 2016 in the wake of a major political crisis in which he and close associates were accused of illegal wiretapping, cover-ups, corruption, and imposing authoritarian rule.
His government's demise was the result of the so-called Przino Agreement, which was concluded between the ruling and opposition parties with the help of mediators from the European Union.
Gruevski's escape introduces new uncertainty into efforts to pursue alleged illegalities under the past government.
But looking forward, this latest twist in Macedonia's ongoing political saga could also affect Zoran Zaev's current governing coalition, fronted by his Social Democratic Union (SDSM).
Its survival may well depend on Zaev's ability to ensure fair investigations, and in some cases trials, for those accused of turning public service into private profit.

Finance sector firms must open up their large data sets to customers in order to regain lost trust, according to a panel of industry experts.
Speaking at a panel session at Salesforce's vendor conference in London on Thursday, Jonathon Wood, head of systems at Bank of Cyprus UK, said that the finance sector needs to readdress the way it utilises information gathered on clients.
"Thus far I get the impression that the banking industry has kind of used data against its customers," he said. "In other words, they have used it as a weapon to persuade or coerce them - possibly to buy a product or more services."
He said that the sector needs to open up its vast amounts of information back to customers to regain trust and drive more sustainable long term business gains.
"The next step for the financial services industry, given that we have an image problem at the moment of our own making, is to use that data with our customers," he said.
"That might mean in the short term that they use less services. But in the longer term the idea is to build trust and loyalty amongst you customer base - two things which are in short supply in the financial services industry at the moment."
He added: "It means more business coming our way, based on trust and loyalty and customers who are prepared to work with you, and to share their data, rather than mistrusting what their information will be used for. That is where we see the future of data."
Similar suggestions were made in the insurance industry, with Ian Cohen, CIO at JLT, saying that providers need to realise the potential to engender customer loyalty, while also opening up the possibility of new areas of revenue.
"At the moment we are looking at where we can take information that absolutely belongs to our clients, and see if can we publish that data back to them with a value add. We are just the custodians of that data," he said.
"If you can do that then you are going to have a much more engaged workforce and much better relationships with customers."
According to Jules Elliott, chief customer officer, DLG at Direct Line Group, one example of how the exchange of data can reward customers is through the development of telematics applications in the insurance industry, which will allow detailed monitoring of drivers through sensors deployed in cars, but also enable reduced rates.
"Customers are happy to share data and telematics, and in future via home-based sensors and so on, but they want to see a value exchange for that. So why are they paying to ensure their car when it is parked in their garage? This is the where it is going to go with big data."

It is not a substitute for professional care. If you have or suspect you may have a brain injury or other medical issue, you should consult your health care provider.
A Traumatic brain injury can be classified as mild or moderate/severe. Even if a TBI is classified as "mild", the effect on the family and the injured person can be devastating.
By definition, a concussion is a traumatic brain injury (TBI) caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head or by a hit to the body that causes the head and brain to move rapidly back and forth. This sudden movement can cause the brain to bounce around or twist in the skull, stretching and damaging brain cells and creating chemical changes in the brain.
Both a closed or open head injury can cause a concussion.
A person may or may not experience a brief loss of consciousness, when sustaining a concussion. If consciousness remains intact, the individual may simply feel dazed and/or confused, yet still have a concussion.
A concussion can cause diffuse axonal type of brain injury, resulting in temporary or permanent damage.
A concussion may be diagnosed by exclusion, due to the fact that it may or may not show up on diagnostic imaging.
Children with a concussion can have the same symptoms as adults, but it is often harder for them to share how they feel. It is important to remember that it may take up to a few months to a few years for a concussion to heal.
However, when an individual sustains a concussion and their symptoms do not resolve after 3-6 months, they may then be diagnosed with Post-Concussion Syndrome. Post-Concussion Syndrome is a complex disorder with various symptoms from headaches, dizziness, and sleep issues-to psychological ( i.e. depression, anxiety, irritability) and cognitive problems (i.e memory and concentration issues); these symptoms can range from transient, mild symptoms to ongoing disabling problems.

PILLSBURY INSTITUTE ADVISORY BOARD WELCOMES NEW MEMBERS
This fall the Advisory Board of the Pillsbury Institute welcomed several new members:
Stephen Asprinio '04 – A chef, a sommelier, a restaurateur – each of these titles applies to Stephen. It is rare for someone in the hospitality industry to have been a chef as well as a sommelier. Yet Stephen was just that, and achieved this accomplishment at only 22 years old. Stephen has earned two degrees, one from the highly acclaimed Culinary Institute of America, and the other from Cornell University's School of Hotel Administration. At age 24, he captured national fame on the debut reality series, Bravo! Network's 'Top Chef' and by age 26, he opened his first restaurant. He currently resides in NYC, where his hospitality consulting firm, S.A. Hospitality Innovations is based.
Stacey Nodolny '05 – Stacey is one of HVS's premier experts on hotel markets in the Midwest, is Senior Vice President, Partner, and Director of Operations for HVS Global Hospitality Services in Chicago. It's a role for which she is uniquely qualified, having completed hundreds of assignments for hotels and resorts in the Great Lakes region. Stacey has written several articles on major regional markets, including Columbus, Cincinnati, Cleveland, and Detroit. In 2012, she hosted an HVS Hotel Valuation Summit focused on lodging trends in Ohio and the Great Lakes region. Stacey earned her bachelor's degree from Cornell University's School of Hotel Administration. In her free time, Stacey regularly visits her family and youthful haunts in northwest Ohio. She relocated back to Chicago, where her HVS career began, in late 2014, and she has excitedly renewed explorations throughout the city's diverse neighborhoods. A track and field athlete during college, she continues to practice crossfit and compete on several recreational sports teams both in Columbus and Chicago.
Josh Ogle '08 – Josh is the Founder and CEO of Fresh Spin Advertising, a digital advertising firm with offices in New York, San Diego, and The Netherlands. After having sold his previous marketing company in Silicon Valley, he founded Fresh Spin in 2011 with the intention of having a project to work on where he could work alongside his friends from childhood and college — thus, the company's founding employees and partners were all made up of either Cornelians or friends from Josh's childhood. His particular passion is in the startup world, especially in finding ways to do things cheaply and efficiently. Josh graduated from the School of Hotel Administration in 2008. He divides his professional time between his advertising firms, his consultancy, angel investing, and coming up with ideas for new companies to start with friends.


August 13, 2010 -- Pakistan must refuse to pay foreign debt and divert the amount to the relief and rehabilitation of flood-hit communities. Instead of begging for much-needed aid for relief and rehabilitation, Pakistan must stand up and announce the unilateral suspension of repayment of foreign debts, owed to international finance institutions (IFIs) and donor countries. Currently Pakistan is paying about US$3 billion on debt servicing every year. Pakistan's present foreign debt of $54 billion is increasing. This act alone can bring most of the much-need support for the immediate relief of the flood victims.
August 11, 2010 -- NewsClick (India) via Real News Network -- Farooq Tariq from the Labour Party Pakistan talks about the changing relationship between the Islamic fundamentalists and the state of Pakistan.
August 10, 2010 -- Tantawut Taweewarodomkun, the United Front for Democracy Against Dictatorship (UDD) USA's web designer, known as "Red Eagle", who was arrested on April 1, 2010, on "computer crimes" and lese majeste charges, has been remanded in custody until February 2011, when the court has set a date to interrogate prosecution and defence witnesses. That means that Red Eagle will be detained in prison for at least 10 months BEFORE being tried in court. He has only just had access to his lawyer. Red Eagle has not been charged with any crime of violence or charged with committing any physical act. He is accused of looking after a website that has comments that the royalist elites do not like (see www.norporchorusa.com and www.norporchorusa2.com).
August 7, 2010 -- More than 12 million people are suffering from floods in Pakistan. Please donate to the Labour Relief Campaign to help people of Pakistan facing the worst-ever floods in its history. Torrential rains have unleashed flash floods in different parts of the country in the last three weeks. Levies have broken, leaving the people exposed to flood water.
PETALING JAYA, Malaysia, August 6, 2010 -- Free Malaysia Today -- Kota Damansara assemblyman and Socialist Party of Malaysia (PSM) chairman Nasir Hashim is a realist. But he is also fond of quoting Argentinian revolutionary Che Guevara to "be realistic and do the impossible".
And Nasir is doing the impossible: he is spearheading an ambitious project to eradicate urban poverty in a small community in the vicinity of Ara Damansara, Petaling Jaya.
The project has a bold vision. It will empower the poor not only by developing their skill sets but also by encouraging a mindset shift from that of victim to victor. The project also aims to have various parties – federal and Selangor governments, businesses, non-governmental organisations and local communities – working hand-in-hand to achieve this vision. It is a radical concept and one that could be seen as remarkably idealistic.
Statement Solidaritas Bersama Hentikan Ancaman Terhadap Venezuela Sekarang!
Kami, organisasi-organisasi di bawah ini, dengan perhatian serius melihat kemungkinan agresi militer terhadap rakyat Venezuela oleh Pemerintah Kolombia, yang didukung oleh Negara Amerika Serikat dengan menggunakan tujuh pangkalan militer yang baru-baru ini dibangun di Kolombia.
Persoalan ini timbul dari kejadian belakangan ini ketika Republik Bolivarian Venezuela pada tanggal 22 Juli 2010 dituduh saat Sidang Luar Biasa Organization of American States (Organisasi Negara-negara Amerika) di Washington oleh Pemerintah Kolombia mempromosikan, mendukung dan memelihara hubungan dengan organisasi-organisasi bersenjata dari Kolombia, seperti Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (Angkatan Bersenjata Revolusioner Kolombia-FARC) dan National Liberation Army (Tentara Pembebasan Nasional-ELN). Tuduhan itu hanya berdasarkan gambar yang belum pernah diperiksa ataupun diverifikasi.
August 1, 2010 -- Malaysiakini -- Riot police barred activists from holding candlelight vigils to commemorate the Internal Security Act's 50th anniversary in eight places around the country.
At Dataran MBPJ, Padang Timur in Petaling Jaya, Selangor -- which saw the earliest vigil begin at 8pm -- members of the police Light Strike Force (LSF) began dispersing the 300-strong crowd just as the latter began singing while marching from the mall, through the adjacent car park and towards the field across the main road.
August 3, 2010 -- On February 13, 2010, Han Sang Kyun, the chairman of the Ssangyong Motor Company Union, was sentenced to four years in prison. Australia Asia Workers Links is campaigning for his release.
News footage. Thai regime crushed democracy protest with brute force.
July 30, 2010 -- Pro-democracy movement Red Shirt political prisoners, detained by the Abhisit Vejjajiva military junta after the bloody crackdown against unarmed demonstrators in May are facing a total lack of justice with internationally recognised legal standards being blatantly ignored. This is more evidence of the total destruction of democracy, justice and the rule of law in Thailand since the 2006 military coup.
Prachatai, the web-based newspaper, which the junta repeatedly tries to close down, reports that Red Shirt detainees in the north-east provinces of Ubon Rajatanee, Kon Kaen, Mahasarakarm, Mukdaharn and Udon Tanee are facing the following problems and there is no reason to believe that other Red Shirt detainees are any better off elsewhere.
1. Police evidence used for warrants of arrest is unclear and lacking in legal standards. So people have been arrested and detained under conditions where there is a lack of clear evidence.
Banning the veil: Rights of women or anti-Islamic racism and communalism?
July 21, 2010 -- On July 13, the parliament of France, on the eve of Bastille Day, voted 335 to one in favour of preventing Muslim women wearing a full face-covering veil in public. The July 13 Le Monde said the new law was strongly supported by the right. The Socialist Party, Communist Party (PCF) and Green Party abstained. Anyone who chooses to wear a face covering on religious grounds now faces a fine of 150 euros or a "citizenship course". The law does not come into effect until spring 2011 to allow a period of "education". There is also a year in prison and a fine of 30,000 euros for anyone found guilty of forcing a woman to wear a veil, a penalty which is doubled if the "victim is a minor".
Earlier this year, the Indian organisation Radical Socialist issued a statement taking up this wave of Islamophobic legislation in Europe.
July 16, 2010 -- On July 6, while Mustansar Rindhawa was listening to a worker who had not been paid his wages by a textile boss, an unknown person with a Kalashnikov rifle entered the front room and fired. Mustansar tried to save his life by running to the next room.
I met Mustansar Rindhawa (32) briefly on June 19, 2010, in Faisalabad, less than a month before his murder. He was one of 30 participants in a trade union leadership training course at the Labour Qaumi Movement (LQM) office. The LQM is a community-based labour organisation established in 2004. It has become the main labour organisation in Faisalabad, and is now spreading to other cities.
I had been invited by the Labour Education Foundation, the organisation conducting the program, to speak on "globalisation and its impact on the working class in Pakistan". Mustansar Rindhawa and Hamid Shah were introduced to me as two newcomers to the movement. Both have been active in the small-scale industrial zone of Faisalabad.
Sin Permiso -- El pasado 9 de junio el senador del Partido Liberal Benigno Aquino III, conocido popularmente como "Noynoy" Aquino, hijo de la difunta Presidenta Cory Aquino, fue proclamado Presidente de Filipinas. Su toma de posesión tuvo lugar el 30 junio, en medio de importantes ilusiones y expectativas de una ruptura con el periodo corrupto y caciquil de Gloria Matapagal Arroyo. Reihana Mohideen, una socialista feminista que coordinada la ONG filipina "Trasform Asia" ha entrevistado a tres destacados dirigentes de la izquierda socialista filipina (Frank Pascual, Sonny Melencio y Ric Reyes) para entrever la naturaleza y el alcance del nuevo periódo político abierto en Filipinas.

July 11, 2010 -- On July 6, the Thai government approved the extension of an emergency decree in 19 provinces, which includes many in the heartland of the pro-democracy Red Shirts in the country's north-east. The extension came a day after the Brussels-based International Crisis Group (ICG) recommended the government immediately lift the decree and hold fresh elections.
But Prime Minister Abhisit Vejajiva, who came to power through the army's intervention, crushed hopes for new elections weeks ago.
There have been tireless efforts to silence critical voices before and after the bloody crackdown on the Red Shirts in May. The International Crisis Group said in a July 5 report that more than 2200 websites have been shut down for alleged violations to the Computer Crime Act since the state of emergency was imposed on April 7.
8 Juli 2010 -- Berdikari -- Aktivis partai Aliansi Sosialis (Socialist Alliance – SA) di Australia menolak rencana PM Julia Gillard untuk membangun pusat pemrosesan suaka regional di Timor Leste.
Kandidat SA dari Perth, Alex Bainbridge, menggambarkan bahwa rencana menampung pencari suaka Australia di Timor Leste bukan didasarkan atas belas kasihan dan keadilan, sebagaimana dikatakan oleh PM tersebut, melainkan untuk mendorong pemenjaraan lebih banyak lagi.
"Kebijakan yang sesungguhnya kita butuhkan adalah yang berdasarkan belas kasihan dan rasa keadilan – yakni menempatkan mereka di tengah-tengah komunitas [masyarakat] Australia," kata Bainbridge.
"Fakta sederhananya, pemenjaraan adalah pemenjaraan – apakah pemenjaraan itu di Pulau Christmas atau Leonora, Timor Leste atau Nauru," tambahnya.
China: In who's interest does the state serve?
Striking workers at the Tianjin Mitsumi Electric Co Ltd factory in the city of Tianjin, June 29, 2010.
July 2, 2010 -- Workers' Compass -- The recent wave of strikes in China, most visibly at Honda factories, are testament to a growing movement of labour unrest in the country. This development is of great importance for international working-class struggle.
For the capitalists, China holds a key position in the global system of generating profits. The demands of China's workers for better conditions and a higher standard of living are in direct conflict with the international capitalists' desire to use China as a source of cheap labour. For the world's big business elite, already shaken by an international economic crisis of their own making, the growing militancy of China's workers is a great threat.
June 30, 2010 -- Three months' notice has been given to Punjab government to decide the fate of the 68,000 acres of agriculture land owned by Punjab government and cultivated by tenants for more than 100 years. The tenants have been demanding land ownership rights. Despite promises to do so by former prime ministers Benazhir Bhutto and Mian Nawaz Sharif, the land in question has not been allotted to the tenants.


Notice how the word 'pregnancy' – which is a state of being – has been hijacked to hide the gruesome reality of what the abortionist does when she removes a living human being, piece-by-piece, from the womb of his mother? In the abortion movement's unreality, even language must kowtow to the agenda of an industry that profits from death.
Amidst their mom's wordplay, the girls likely did not comprehend that their mom was admitting to terminating the lives of young children not much smaller than themselves on a daily basis. Disturbingly, the 4-year-old seems to have been so oblivious to her mom's obfuscating language that she tells her mom that the uterus is where "babies" are.

There could be only one major topic for the past fortnight - THE WEATHER !!!
Hard to believe now, but we had a short spell of beautiful blue skies and temperature up to 7C/44F. I even managed some tidying up in the garden. But so we don't get too optimistic, the weather forecast is already making dire predictions about icy blasts coming in from Russia.
Tuesday Feb. 27th and we woke up to -2C and snowing - been on and off all day; one minute bright sunshine, then dark and heavy snowflakes. We have already heard that the school are off tomorrow - there will be the usual criticism, but the Council is damned if it does and damned if it doesn't. Police gave a severe weather warning with advice not to travel unless absolutely necessary. G. told not to travel to work in Edinburgh and instead went to the Galashiels office - but came home early and it took 50 minutes to drive the 8 miles.
View from our front door with the trees on the White Hill in the background.
But worse was to come, notably overnight on Wednesday 28th when we woke to 8" of snow from what the media are dubbing "The Beast from the East". Very grateful that G. and N. called at the Co-op for us, and walked round with some essentials - but no deliveries of milk or newspapers had got through. The worst snow we have had since 2001, when we lived in Hawick and the town was cut off. I could not get to work for 3 days - not that I was bothered, as I had just been made redundant!
Nh loves snow clearing and at the end of a stint had fun playing at Snow Angels in the back garden.
I was keen for some fresh air and exercise, especially having been comfort eating - too many chocolate biscuits with cups of tea. So I set off along the road to Redpath - surprised to see the gritter hadn't been along it, as the road had hard packed snow. i took it steadily and got to the view of the Black Hill. In its own way, an enjoyable walk.
Latest post in the "52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks" series where the theme was "Heirlooms". I chose to feature the legacy left by my talented mother.
"On the Job" was the theme of a prompt from a fellow blogger who asked us to list the paid jobs we have had over the years - a fun, nostalgic post to pull together and to choose the photographs. - my title "From Fish Girl to Family Historian" - with student jobs, history, tourism and librarianship serving me well.
long before the days of computers.
My latest blog post was a profile of John Simpson (1856- 1919) of the local mill Simpson and Fairbairn. He was typical of so many self-made Vistorians - he began work in a tweed mill at the age of 15 and became a leading entrepreneur in the Borders woollen industry.
but economics forced its closure in 1969.
Apart from the usual quizzes, a dead loss for me on TV, so we have been enjoying the new Gilbert & Sullivan DVDs that we bought online to replace the videos we could no longer play on our new machine. Brought back many happy memories of my time years ago singing in them with the Savoy Opera Group in Edinburgh.
I am one of the bridesmaids in "Ruddigore".
The photograph was taken at the dress rehearsal, but the scenery team needed to work all hours to finish the painting of the cottage for opening night!

Atelier BL 119 Le design autrement
Hervé Dixneuf and Grégory Blain, who joined forces in 2007 to create the "Atelier BL119", make up an atypical duo, far from the usual line of strategy one comes across in the work of young designers.
As designer Éric Jourdan, who was their teacher in Saint-Étienne, would say: "Their name, the "Atelier BL119", reminds us more of a secret prototype by André Citroën than of a young design studio, as if we were immediately projected into the world of industrial design and its myths."
The tone is given!
Hervé Dixneuf and Grégory Blain, who joined forces in 2007 to create the "Atelier BL119", make up an atypical duo, far from the usual line of strategy one comes across in the work of young designers. Their difference in the realm of design resides in their culture of the "project", in which the elaboration of forms that are slightly out of sync with everyday life come to destabilize our domestic world and the way we perceive things and space. These projects emerge from research nourished by cultural influences and a quest for harmony between drawing and functionality. Projects born from the vision of the missing object, the desire to explore texture, new usages, to visit and (re)form objects, and draw them differently.
Although they are both young, they have already worked for famous manufacturers such as Cinna, Roset and CIAV. Amongst those projects are the Niche, Kilo, 100 Watts, Bardo and Arborescence…
Their generous, offbeat approach takes us from one surprise to another: the beginning of a new page in the history of design… Both graduated from the Saint-Étienne School of Fine-Arts in 2006, and their creations have been exhibited at the School in October 2013.

Altare Productions has brought together two relatively unknown names in the black metal world for yet another brand new seven-inch split. Within the ranks this time around are Finnish newcomers Serpentfyre, who formed back in 2012 and only have a demo and their 2015 debut album Bestial Mysticism to their name, as well as long running Purtugese four-piece Dolentia who have unleashed a good number of efforts since forming in 2004. The latter's latest album, Iniciação Eversiva, was also released through Altare Productions, as well as the smaller UK label Mordgrimm. But do these two mesh together well enough to benefit the two bands in any way, or do both groups simply phone it in with uninspiring performances?
First up is Serpentfyre with "Kointähti", a dark yet firy black metal assault laced with suitable growls to build on the hostility the band presents much of the time. When not tearing into the listener with highly distorted riffs that linger more in the background, there exists a reliance on the loud bass guitar to maintain a groove that sometimes takes on more of a glorious nordic sensation, something one would expect of the Finnish trio. That emotional toll grows a little more grand on "Servo Além-Dor" from Dolentia. The enthusiastic, rawer sounding performance carries itself with an afterlife draped in white, as if empowering into the next world before being dragged kicking and screaming into the doom laden darkened nightmare that is eternal damnation by the half-way point. The raspier vocals give way to deep, sometimes altered gutturals backed by a ritualistic drum pattern that marches you forward to a return to the light that is unwarranted. Truthfully, had the performance ended with that creeping pace, the ending would have had a far better impact musically.
But, even with "Servo Além-Dor" carrying on a bit too long, this Split with Serpentfyre is a solid one none-the-less. Two superb acts in the black metal world come together to bring one new song a piece for their respective fan bases, and it works out quite well. While the overall atmospheres have a decent amount of variety, there's still enough of a similarity to make the two seem cut from the same cloth, prime to expose those unaware to each other's existence properly. If you haven't heard of these two bands yet, or are familiar and just want some new tunes, then this new Split release is one you'll want to check out.

Recap: Good Trouble 1×08 "Byte Club"
Bryna Kramer
GOOD TROUBLE - "Byte Club" - Mariana forms a women-in-tech Òfight clubÓ with other women in her office to deal with sexism in their workplace. Meanwhile, despite bonding over past traumas, Callie & Rebecca donÕt see eye-to-eye on how to address a potential workplace harassment situation for a colleague. This episode of "Good Trouble" airs Tuesday, Feb. 6 (8:00 - 9:01 P.M. EST) on Freeform. (Freeform/Richard Cartwright) NOAH CENTINEO, JOSH PENCE
One of the things Good Trouble has excelled at this season is highlighting some of the struggles women are facing in the workplace solely because they're women. But not everything in this week's episode is as serious, as the other half of our favorite set of twins is reunited with his sister. Let's break down this episode, shall we?
Just Because It Happened Once, Doesn't Mean It's Okay
Remember how two weeks ago I said that the situation with Wilson's son was going to present some moral quandaries for Callie? Well we're starting to see that play out this week. The episode starts with Judge Wilson and his son having it out in his office. When Callie realizes what she's walked in on, she tries to leave but not before the son walks out and Wilson realizes someone has overheard their conversation. But first, we flashback to the rest of the episode.
Wilson's case this week features a women who was let go from her job with no explanation after she reported sexual harassment in the workplace. Rebecca is clerking this case and plans to put in her memo that there is no real case. Callie calls her out, asking her, as a women, if she feels she owes the woman the benefit of doubt. But Rebecca feels that, as the clerk on the case, it's more important to give Wilson a recommendation based on the law.
At a clerk happy hour, Callie and Rebecca meet a fellow clerk, Kate, who is clerking for Rebecca's old boss, Judge Handleman. Rebecca noticeably freezes up when Kate mentions that and quickly excuses herself from the conversation. Ben tells Callie that Rebecca transferred out of Handleman's office simply because Handleman is less respected; he also says that's why she's so sensitive when someone brings up how she got the clerkship with Wilson.
As it turns out, that's not why Rebecca transferred to Judge Wilson's office or why she froze when Kate mentioned who her boss was. As it turns out, she was sexually harassed during her time working for Judge Handleman — or Handsy-man as he's also known around town. When Rebecca told her family about what happened, her grandfather pulled some strings to fix the situation, but also told her to keep quiet about what happened. Callie is worried about whether or not it could be happening to Kate, but Rebecca says there's nothing she can do about it; she won't come forward as she wants to continue to protect her family's name. Rebecca does, however, end up writing her memo in favor of the woman, but asks Callie not to mention her secret to anyone.
Back to the scene in Wilson's office from the beginning of the episode, Wilson comes out and Callie probably thinks he's going to fire her… again. Instead, he gets personal with Callie, asking her about how she was able to stay the course and not screw up her life. The conversation turns into Wilson admitting that he blames himself for his son's screwups, but also that character plays a big part and that it's something you're either born with or not. Callie uses this opportunity with Wilson feeling vulnerable to ask him a question, presumably about the Rebecca/Judge Handleman situation. I love that Callie cares and wants to make sure that Judge Handleman doesn't hurt anyone else, but I have a feeling this is going to come back to bite her in the ass if she's not careful.
Welcome to Byte Club
Mariana kicks off the first night of her women in tech support group, or as she's calling it: byte club. The wine is flowing and the feelings start pouring out. Mariana mentions her problem with Raj — without naming him of course — and unfortunately everyone else has similar stories. So the ladies come up with some solutions to the common problems they all seem to encounter.
Mariana implements some of these tactics in her next team meeting and gets a small win when Josh acknowledges her idea. She shares her excitement about it at happy hour with Callie, Jesus and Dennis, but Jesus kind of goes off on her, saying she's never been one to settle for scraps. Mariana gets just as upset at Jesus when he shares his win and decides to remove herself from the situation. But she's not actually pissed at Jesus' success. How could she be? He's her twin brother! She's just mad because she thinks everything comes easy to him because he's a guy. But Jesus tells her that's not the case, that things are actually harder for him because of his TBI. He also apologizes for what he said to her at cocktails; he just doesn't want to see someone as smart as her settling for mediocrity.
"It makes me sick how these guys are treating you at work," Jesus tells her. "I want to kick their asses, but I know you and nobody can kick their ass better than you… I love you, Mariana, and all I meant was that I didn't want to have to see you play down to their level."
Hearing Jesus say that sparks something in Mariana. She realizes that the women of Speckulate don't need to learn how to navigate the culture, they need to change it instead. She suggests that they start by closing the gender pay gap, that they walk into their upcoming end of year performance reviews and demand a raise. The way to go about it? Share salary info, find out what they pay the men and then demand the same. However, there is one hurdle: everyone signed an NDA in their contracts, so if they're going to go through with this, they have to be discreet about it.
Mariana asks Raj for his help with this undertaking, since he's still eager to make it up to her. He agrees to share his salary info and even takes it one step further: he goes to HR and tells Angela about how Alex left Mariana off the new social network project. Angela calls Alex out in front of the entire team, so he relents and lets her work with Raj. So far, Mariana is coming out victorious. But I have a feeling this spreadsheet with salary info is not going to stay a secret for long.
To The Boy I Loved Before: Jesus Adams Foster
Jesus Adams Foster was hands down my favorite character on The Fosters, so to say I'm glad he's found his way to Los Angeles is an understatement.
Professionally, things aren't going that great with the tree house business. Stef and Lena apparently think that he should go work for another contractor and Callie and Mariana seem to agree. But Dennis, of all people, takes Jesus' side and tells him to stay true to himself and not compromise. This prompts Jesus to share his idea of building tiny houses, but he needs an investor to help him make this dream a reality. Dennis and Jesus go out for a drink and Dennis tells Jesus he might know someone wanting to invest in Jesus' idea.
But in typical Jesus fashion, he goes to talk to a girl he sees across the bar. They bond over horrible pick up lines and Jesus ends up in her bed. It turns out to be Rebecca (!!!!!) of all people. Prior to this week's promos, I would have never dreamt up this pairing. Anyway, Jesus sees her again the next night at the same bar when he, Dennis, and Mariana crash clerk happy hour. Yet neither of them have managed to put together that Callie is Jesus' sister and that Rebecca and Callie work together.
The episode ends with Rebecca coming to the Coterie to meet Jesus for dinner. Callie turns around to see who Jesus' mystery girl is and lays eyes on Rebecca. Considering Noah Centineo is not slated to appear in another episode this season, I wonder where episode 9 will pick up. My guess is that Callie and Rebecca will discuss it and then move on, leaving it as a one night stand. But I guess we will find out next week.
Although we didn't see either one of them in this episode, apparently Gael and Bryan are now exclusive. Did Gael actually want to be exclusive with Bryan? Or was this more of a "Callie doesn't want to see me anymore so I guess Bryan is the next best thing" kind of decision? I guess we will soon find out.
Dennis and Jesus meet with Dennis' old friend, Nathan. But when Jesus excuses himself to use the restroom, Nathan shares that he's been seeing Jennifer — yeah, Dennis' soon-to-be ex-wife. Dennis says he's cool with it, but the look on his face says something completely different.
Callie runs into Jamie at the bar. They end up making out in the bathroom, knocking over everything in sight. I still really like them together, but the sexual chemistry is nowhere close to what she has with Gael.
Mariana thinks Ben is cute, but Callie shuts that down before she can even think about acting on it. I'm with Callie on this one. Mariana, stick with Raj and Evan.
When Mariana, Callie and Jesus are having their sibling moment, Mariana and Jesus knock heads and Jesus jokes about having another concussion. NOT FUNNY JESUS. NO MORE CONCUSSION/TBI JOKES PLEASE.
Good Trouble airs on Tuesdays at 8/7c on Freeform.

Out of storage space on your desktop computer? Maybe you need to back up all that school work on your laptop? Perhaps you want a convenient way to keep your movie collection organized? Whatever your needs Best Buy is here to help find the best external hard drive for you.
It's a data storage device. Similar to the one inside your laptop or desktop computer, except an external hard drive lives outside your computer in its own enclosure.
What are the difference types?
There are 2 types of external hard drives: 3.5" and 2.5". The 3.5-inch or desktop external hard drive needs a separate power connection to work. So it's meant to stay in one place such as workspace at home or your office. The 2.5-inch or portable external hard drive draws its power from its USB connection and doesn't need a separate power connection to work. This helps gives the 2.5-inch drive its small form factor making it light and portable.
Lots of reasons. External hard drives are handy for adding more storage space to your desktop computer or laptop without needing to know how to install an internal hard drive. They're also good for backing up important files, keeping collections (music, movies, or photos) organized, file sharing, improving your workflow, and so on.
What should I consider when buying an external hard drive?
More than you might think. Beyond simply knowing how much storage space you need (or want), consider connectivity: USB 2.0? USB 3.0? Thunderbolt? Firewire? Wireless? Does the drive need a separate power connection? Also think about spindle speed and cache memory size: More RPMs and RAM give you better performance.
Most external drives will work cross platform. But make sure that the drive you want to purchase will work with all of your systems whether it's Windows, Mac, or both. Also, know what format the drive you are purchasing uses, NTFS or FAT32. Both have their pros and cons, but some formats get along better with certain operating systems than others.
Which type of external hard drive do I need?
Desktop versus portable is a lot like asking: Marvel versus DC? While both are awesome, each offers something different for everyone.
Desktop drives have the largest capacities available. This means they are great for active users who transfer and store lots of data. Some desktop drives feature built-in cooling fans that helps extend the drive's lifespan.
Portable drives are just that - extremely portable. Some even have rugged enclosures that are water-, shock-, and crush-proof, making them ideal for those who need to store or transport files in inhospitable conditions.


Guilin has a global fame of the most perfect Karst landscape, and is proud of the picturesque Li River, splendid Longji Rice Terrace, etc. The tours from Guilin extending to Xian which is the hometown of Terra-Cotta Warriors and known as the historic culture center of China, will definitely bring you a lot of China.
First you'll stay in Guilin to enjoy the unique Karst landscapes and the leisure time for relaxation. Then you'll visit the world-famous Terra Cotta warriors and horses in Xian. Different sceneries and cultures will be experienced in this tour.

Upcycle instead of being a part of the cycle
April 15, 2019	/ no comments	/	383 views

The MIX@Fenwick hosts a sustainable-fashion challenge
BY NAYOMI SANTOS, STAFF WRITER
According to fast-fashion critic Elizabeth Cline, "Americans consume nearly 20 billion garments a year, equivalent to 62 garments each." This is the result of the rise of the fast-fashion industry. These pieces of clothing are produced, often unethically, in other countries at the cost of the environment. The danger of fast fashion to both the environment and to the laborers who work in the industry led a group of faculty to create the Upcycled Fashion Challenge last year.
"It started out last year as a partnership between the MIX and the Office of Sustainability," Amanda Jarvis, the MIX maker manager, said. "This year, it grew into a larger campaign."
The MIX asked people to donate clothing that could be "upcycled" into new pieces. "The purpose of this is to raise awareness of the fashion industry and how wasteful [it can be]," Jarvis said. The challenge encourages people to give new life to their own clothing instead of going out to buy something new.
Submissions are due by April 19, with voting opening the same day for the Mason community and continuing through April 24. On Wednesday, April 24, at 5 p.m., the MIX will host both an exhibit of the pieces submitted and a sustainable fashion panel discussion.
"Experts in sustainable fashion in local businesses and on campus [are] going to be talking about sustainable fashion in different areas," Jarvis said. Afterward, there will be an awards ceremony based on the results of voting.
In addition, the MIX will hold a series of workshops that teaches people to upcycle and repair clothing. Therefore, participation in the challenge is not limited to people who have experience in sewing and textiles. Anyone can join and participate in the movement for sustainable fashion.
"We have gotten some more people in on it to help us out this year," Jarvis said. "Last year, we only got six entries, but this year, we are hoping to double that and maybe more." The challenge consists of taking donated clothing from the MIX or thrifted clothing that the participant has found. "It should be recycled clothing, not something that you bought new."
Jarvis continued, "Then, you can sew it into something new, give it a second chance, a second life." Once the piece is ready, you can submit it in the MIX@Fenwick. "We don't have super-strict restrictions on it, because we are trying to get the most participation as possible," she said.
"Really, the importance of this event is that it's promoting sustainable fashion," Jarvis said. Both individuals and groups can submit pieces.
There are endless possibilities to upcycle garments. For example, the MIX hosts a fiber arts guild for people who are interested in needle arts, which meets every Wednesday evening at the MIX. Members of the guild make yarn out of recycled T-shirts and knit it into new things. "Doni, who runs the greenhouse, is knitting baskets for her vegetables with this recycled T-shirt yarn," Jarvis said.
In the future, Jarvis hopes to expand the challenge to the social entrepreneurship area. "This year we have been focusing on … the maker side of things, but we also, in the future, would like to add the social entrepreneurship element as well," she said.
The current challenge focuses on the impact that fast fashion has on the environment—but the damages that the industry does do not end there. There are many social problems that come with fast fashion. Jarvis hopes to explore and challenge people at Mason to think of them.
The fiber arts guild at the MIX will also participate in the Maker Faire NoVa. So, even after the Upcycled Fashion Challenge, the guild will continue to meet every Wednesday in preparation for the fair. The group welcomes all Mason students who have an interest in the needle arts.

Teresa and Yvonne met at the 'Music Academy – Hanns Eisler' in Berlin.
They have played music together in a variety of forms and styles for example since 2010 in the trio 'Les Accordés' and can be seen even today on stage with their specially developed music, dance and text Chanson-Revue called 'Drei in einer großen Stadt' ('Three in a big city').
During their studies both were fellow members of the private association 'Yehudi Menuhin – Live Music Now'.
These experiences bonded the two musicians together into a close friendship allowing them to combine both their multiple talents into a strong partnership.
Both are singing, are proficient in several instruments as well as and dancing.
The consistently positive feedback to Teresa and Yvonne on their classical concerts with arias from different epochs and their concerts with songs from the 20th century encouraged the two musicians now to create their own completely unique Two Women stage program '2 Women 1 Journey' so that classical music would be made available to every generation connecting it with both current issues to their new and original compositions.

Free Bassel Day, Bodhi Linux Chromebook Giveaway & More…
By Larry Cafiero on March 6, 2015 |
Business, Community, Distros, Operating Systems and Politics
FOSS Week in Review
As the week finally becomes Friday, here are a few things that deserve mentioning in the FOSS realm:
Bodhi Chromebook Giveaway: What's better than having a Chromebook? Having a Chromebook with Bodhi installed on it, of course. We'll let Jeff Hoogland explain:
"Whenever I am done working with development hardware I picked up for Bodhi Linux, instead of letting it rot in the corner of my basement I would prefer to give it back to our users," Hoogland writes in a post on the Bodhi website describing the giveaway. "Last year we gave away an ARM powered Samsung Chromebook and this year I find myself with a spare Acer C720 Chromebook after recently upgrading to the i3 based version."
So on May 15, some lucky Bodhi contributor — key word here is "Bodhi contributor" — will receive "a gently used Acer C720 Chromebook powered by Bodhi Linux."
Says Jeff: "If you have already donated or contributed to the Bodhi project in 2015 no extra effort is needed on your part. If you have been thinking about getting involved or sending a donation our way now is a fantastic time to do as you might end up getting something back!"
Details on the giveaway are on the Bodhi site.
But wait, there's more: FOSS Force's Christine Hall will have an article on Monday looking at current activity around the 3.0.0 release in which she talks to Jeff about it.
I Want You…: Like the old Armed Forces recruiting posters with Uncle Sam pointing a bony finger at you, it looks like Linux techs are a sought-after species. Demand for skilled Linux professionals continues to outpace the supply of qualified candidates, according to the Linux Foundation. This week, the foundation released its 2015 Linux Jobs report, which they're providing as a free download.
EWeek went into more detail about the report, quoting the Linux Foundation's Amanda McPherson, who said, "Linux is being used in so many places in so many ways that its pervasiveness in computing is growing faster than the pool of Linux talent."
So get that resume polished and out there….
Free Bassel Day 2015: Sunday, March 15, marks the third anniversary of the arrest in Damascus, Syria, of Bassel Khartabil (Bassel Safadi), a computer engineer who was Creative Commons lead in Syria and who started a hackerspace, Aiki Lab, in Damascus in 2010. This is only a small part of Bassel's resume, which includes numerous other open source and free culture projects.

In support of Bassel, the plight of Syrians, and in efforts to raise awareness of both, #FreeBassel day events are being held around the world to mark this date.
Closer to home — at least closer to my home — the Electronic Frontier Foundation will be hosting a community-building event at their San Francisco offices, organized around a Wikipedia edit-a-thon in Bassel's honor. They'll be working to improve and add articles and media content related to Bassel and articles of interest to him, while discussing his case and brainstorming about new projects and ideas to help bring awareness about his plight.
One more thing: I said I wasn't going to mention SCALE 13x again, but I have to go back on my word for musical reasons. At the Fedora Project booth at SCALE 12x and SCALE 13x, Fedora guy and Biblical scholar Scott Williams had musical instruments in the Fedora booth for those who wanted to play. In conversation this week, it was suggested that following Scott's and the Fedora Project's lead, perhaps there should be a FOSS band — maybe Scott on guitar, Red Hat's Paul Frields on bass…heck, I'll even break out the old trumpet and join fellow horn player Lance Albertson, of the OSU Open Source Lab, in the brass section. We can even let Jono Bacon — no longer at Ubuntu, but still a FOSS guy — play guitar or drums or whatever he plays in his San Francisco Bay Area band.
Can you think of anyone else who should be part of Sgt. Torvalds' Lonely Hearts Club Band?

Running short on talented people to support Linux. This one hit me this morning. For the past several months (how long?) a lot of Linux news has been just about non-newsworthy.
Yeah, yeah, somebody did a big installation for a big corporation. Some city started switching over to Linux. Big deal. The next version of some distro came out with some interesting features and a bunch of people like it. Ho-hum. Yeah, Ken gave computers to a bunch of kids or fixed up some computers in a retirement home and some lady in her 80s is taking care of them. Somebody will throw something at me if I mention my wife or the 74 year-old guy handy-man in my small town one more time. We're getting a population of Linux geeks who look like civilians! Just people!
But running short on technical support to take care of these installations? The running line has always been that support won't be as big a problem because there is so much less of it required for a Linux installation than for Windows. But yeah, there has to be somebody somewhere in case a hard drive goes bad or something.
I'm confident Linus never thought this would be a problem.
Sgt. Torvalds' Lonely Hearts Club Band. I like it. But remember these people have day jobs taking care of us (see: shortage of talented Linux tech) and they're not allowed to quit them or go on tour just too often.
Next challenge: get enough Linux bands going that they get to be boring. Let me know, Larry. I'll bring my 12-string guitar.

I took up running a couple of years ago, but it has taken that much time to build up to a half marathon. I had severe knee problems which prevented me running the first race I entered, so I was delighted to sign up to the St Neots Half Marathon on the 14th November 2015. I'm not a fast runner, and I don't get much time to train, so I gave myself a long training schedule. All was going well until I took up an evening job, which curtailed my training. However, I managed to train the full distance before the race and felt ready to go for it!
The forecast was not good, and proved to be accurate. I battled through 43mph gusts whipping across the flat fields of East Anglia, forcing me to walk through them before I could begin running again. At mile 7 I was really struggling, but remembering what a great cause I was running for and knowing I couldn't let me kids down, I pushed on through the tiredness and was elated to see the finish line. It was a nice, straight run to the flag, and I stopped to high 5 my kids at the end. I was exhausted, but elated. The cheers, whoops and calls of my name throughout the course had got me through, and the supportive encouragement from the marshals and other people waiting at the finish helped me make it to the end!
I had decided when I was 30 that I was ready to have children, but had to wait another 2 years for my husband to come to the same decision. By then I felt like I had waited a lifetime for that blue line to come up on the stick. I had read of the possibility of a miscarriage – but you never think it's going to happen to you. All was fine until the 12 week scan, when the sonographer told us the baby looked a bit small, and that she was going to get someone else to have a look. I just thought 'Well, we'll just have a small baby, that's ok'. It was then that we were told the baby had died at around 7 weeks, but my body had shown no signs of it. I chose to have it medically managed, but also had to have a D&C as it hadn't been completely successful. We were absolutely devastated. It wasn't until it happened to us that we realised how common it was. The 1 in 4 figure doesn't mean much until your colleagues and friends tell you that they had suffered the same. We wre lucky enough to go onto to have 2 amazing boys, but I have friends who have suffered multiple miscarriages.
I wanted to support the Miscarriage Association because it's not important not only to raise awareness, but also to help fund further research on miscarriage. Before my own miscarriage I worked for a charity who supported women for whom recurrent miscarriage was part of their condition. The stories I heard were heartbreaking. If my small sum of £200 goes just a little way to supporting these women, and women like me, then it was worth every wind-swept mile!

Keltbray completes second major demolition at HS2
Company News | 9 Oct 2018 SHARE
The Keltbray team working on HS2 has hit a significant milestone as they have now lifted out the 26th and final truss from the former carriage sheds at Euston. The truss was the final element of structural support to be removed and – more significantly – marked the second major achievement of Keltbray's current engagement on the HS2 project; the first being the demolition of the National Temperance Hospital building.
HS2 is a massive infrastructure development project designed to increase capacity across the network as well as improving connectivity between London, Birmingham and the major cities of the North. At Euston, HS2 will more than double the number of seats out of the station at peak hours as well as providing a brand new station concourse and connections to the Underground.
The former carriage sheds – also known as the DB Cargo Shed – marked the first structural demolition by Keltbray for the Costain Skanska Joint Venture (CSJV) in the Euston area. By working in close cooperation with CSJV, the London Borough of Camden and Network Rail, Keltbray carried out the demolition works while ensuring the safe running of the adjacent west coast main line – the busiest rail line in the UK.
Keltbray's involvement with the project dates back to April 2017, when the building was handed over in a dilapidated state from Network Rail. Initial surveys took place to define the most viable method of deconstructing the shed in a live rail environment. The solutions have involved the provision of highly complex assurance documentation regarding safety, the design of the temporary works and also the removal of asbestos.
Members of the Keltbray team on site for this milestone included Project Manager Patricia Morrison, Temporary Works Manager David McDonogh and Site Engineer Daniel Ramsey as well as representatives from CSJV and HS2. Also present were personnel from Tone scaffolding and Keltbray Environmental Solutions who provided excellent specialist services for the scaffolding and asbestos removal respectively.
"Keltbray did a very good job in a complex environment with multiple site constraints," said Keltbray Operations Director Nick Smith, "and all the hard work during the planning stage came to fruition during the delivery phase and allowed us to beat the programme. I'm happy to say that the Keltbray team working in conjunction with CSJV and HS2 met all the required challenges and set the bar at a high level."
CSJV Demolition Manager Tom Cleary said, "The delivery of this package as the first major demolition works for CSJV, on behalf of HS2, is a major milestone on this contract. The collaborative approach shown here, and to be delivered ahead of programme, on budget and with an exemplary safety record, is something all at Keltbray should be proud of."

The newly appointed CEO of Yahoo! Scott Thompson, has just given the pink slip to 2,000 employees, in a bid to salvage the company. One doesn't feel "safe" working in a private company these days, unlike government jobs where employees are deemed to have "steel rice bowls".
The internet is a very fluid economy. Now we see it, now we don't. Yahoo! used to be THE site we all use. Now it's Google and also Facebook. How long can Yahoo! stand the heat? They need to revamp the entire site and not clutter it up.
Google and Facebook used to be minimalists but not anymore. I don't like them as much anymore. What about you?

Q: Передать переменную в javascript файл В приложении написаном express можно передать переменную в шаблон так:
router.get('/test', function (req, res, next) {
    var test = 9;
    res.render('main/login', {
        testVar: test
    });
});

А как передать переменную в javascript файл?

A: Задача передачи конфигурационных параметров из серверного приложения клиентскому возникает регулярно. В большинстве случаев, правильнее всего сделать некую функцию, инициализирующую клиентское приложение, а в процессе рендеринга страницы передавать этой функции объект с конфигурационными параметрами.
Что касается EJS, то он поддерживает синтаксис <%- data %>, который позволяет выключать автоэскейпирование. Вместе с JSON.stringify это полноностью решает проблему передачи данных в клиентское приложение.
Например, ваш шаблон может иметь вид:
<html>
    <head>
        <title><%= title %></title>

        <script type="text/javascript">
            // Этот код стоит вынести в отдельный файл.
            var initApp = function(options) {
                // ... Логика инициализации клиентского приложения.
                console.log(options.foo);
                console.log(options.bar);
            }
        </script>

        <script type="text/javascript">
            // Инициализируем клиентское приложение с данными, переданными
            // из серверного приложения.
            initApp(<%- appConfigs %>);
        </script>
    </head>

    <body>
        <!-- Здесь могла быть ваша разметка -->
    </body>
</html>

А код, занимающийся отрисовкой, может иметь вид:
var ejs = require('ejs'),
    template = '...';

var appConfigs = {
    foo: 'bar',
    bar: 'baz'
};

ejs.render(template, {
    title: 'An awesome page!',
    appConfigs: JSON.stringify(appConfigs)
});


Through the regional accreditation agencies, it is possible to earn transferable academic credit for completion of Independent Study courses. Frederick Community College (FCC) has assumed responsibility for the evaluation of EMI's Independent Study courses. Courses meeting FCC's academic standards become eligible for lower-division academic credit. To apply for college credit, you must successfully complete a course that is eligible for college credit. You can then submit an application with a fee to receive a personal copy of your college transcript. Two official copies may be directed to other institutions free of charge. For more information, visit http://www.em-study.com.
ISP courses are evaluated and awarded CEUs in accordance with the standards established by the International Association of Continuing Education and Training (IACET). For additional information about IACET, please see their website at http://www.iacet.org/ceus/about-the-ceu/.
Active duty members of some branches of the military may be eligible to apply the completion of ISP courses toward promotion and retention programs. Contact your personnel or education office to determine if this program is applicable to your career progression. Our experience indicates that the member is usually required to apply and pay for college credit before receiving consideration to apply his or her participation in the ISP toward promotion or retention points. Members of the Reserve components who are required to accumulate retirement and retention points are, in most cases, able to obtain credit for their work through the ISP.
* CEU: 0.1 CEU = 1 Contact Hour.
** CEU calculation is based on the International Association of Continuing Education and Training (IACET) standards. For additional information about IACET, please see their website at http://www.iacet.org/ceus/about-the-ceu/.
*** College Credits are granted upon submission of application & payment. See "College Credit" for details.
**** Multiple courses must be completed in order to obtain 1 college credit.

Fabrizio Dionigi Ruffo di Bagnara dit le Général-cardinal (né le  à San Lucido, dans la province de Cosenza, en Calabre, alors dans le royaume de Naples et mort le  à Naples) est un homme d'État napolitain et un cardinal de l'Église catholique.

Biographie

Fabrizio Dionigi Ruffo est trésorier de Pie VI, qui le crée cardinal in pectore, quoiqu'il ne soit que diacre. Sa création est publiée le . Ayant perdu les bonnes grâces du pape par des propositions de réformes trop radicales, il retourne à Naples et s'y montre l'adversaire d'Acton.

Depuis la Sicile où s'est réfugié le roi Ferdinand et sa cour, il débarque en Calabre le  avec huit compagnons, prend la tête de l'armée de la Santa Fede (la Sainte Foi) qui rassemble en un mois 17000 combattants contre les Français républicains, aidé de quelques troupes régulières. Il prend Monteleone le  mars, puis Catanzaro, Crotone. Il passe ensuite en Apulie, alors que d'autres mouvements sanfédistes émergent spontanément à travers le Mezzogiorno.

Lors de sa marche en avant, il supprime les droits féodaux et seigneuriaux ce qui explique en partie le soutien populaire mais les sanfédistes sont également partisans du rétablissement du catholicisme comme religion d'État.

Le cardinal reprend Naples à la République parthénopéenne le  avec l'aide des Russes, des Anglais et même des Turcs. La répression sanglante qui s'exerce dans la ville est plutôt ordonnée par le roi Ferdinand  et les Anglais que par lui.

En remerciement de ses services, il est fait lieutenant et capitaine général du royaume, dirigeant ainsi la Suprema Giunta,

En 1805, il désapprouve une nouvelle guerre contre la France et est disgracié pour ce motif par le roi Ferdinand. En 1809, il est déporté à Paris avec le pape Pie VII.

Il est un des héros du roman d'Alexandre Dumas, la San Felice, qui raconte l'histoire sanglante de la République parthénopéenne, et brosse un portrait mitigé du cardinal.
