FG To Establish Solid Minerals Processing Hubs
By News Editor	 On Nov 7, 2020
The Federal Government plans to establish solid mineral processing hubs in the six geopolitical zones of the country.
While speaking at the 2020 Nigeria Mining Week, the Minister of Mines and Steel Development, Olamilekan Adegbite, said the hubs would be cited close to the locations of artisanal miners.
He made this known while addressing the topic 'Formalising Artisanal and small scale mining: The urgent need to formulate adequate policies'.
According to him, the ministry will consult with artisanal miner groups to understand their needs and reach a consensus on the type of processing hub they require.
"We have some interventions around mining on a regional basis. We are looking at bringing a processing centre for the artisanal miners in a particular region.
"There will be hubs in the six geopolitical zones across the country. We will consult with them before deciding on the kind of processing centre they will need."
He noted that small scale mining in Nigeria constituted between 85 per cent and 90 per cent of the mining activities in the country.
He stated that artisanal miners needed to be encouraged to create employment and wealth for the country.
Rather than classifying them as illegal, the minister said it would be better to bring them together and provide incentives for them to thrive.
He said, "At the ministry, we have established a remote sensing station and we are working with the satellite companies to identify areas where artisanal mining is going on.
"When that is done, we send out foot soldiers with hand held equipment, identify them, take their metrics and engage them on the benefits they will derive if they come together as a group."
Adegbite said the government had been able to create 400 groups of artisanal miners and was making funding opportunities available to them.
"A lot of artisanal miners can't access these funds because of the conditions. What they need now is just a guarantor to access the money and pay within a period of six months," he said.
The Executive Secretary, Solid Minerals Development Fund, Hajia Fatima Shinkafi, stated that most artisanal miners were farmers who look for extra income in the off-farming season from mining activities in order to earn a living.
She expressed support for initiatives that aimed to equip miners with safe guides and bring them into the regulatory framework by licensing them and opening bank accounts for them.
She said, "Formalisation is not an easy task. It is not profitable and not what a private sector investor will find appealing. It needs a multiple pronged approach and there should be a collaborative effort and huge politically will from all stakeholders involved."
Also speaking, the Managing Director, Nivek Mining, Kevin Joseph, said safety, environment, trust, care and excellence were important in any mining activity.
He stated that Nigeria mining projects should benefit communities and should be facilitated by the Federal and State Government.
This, according to him, will ensure continuous employment for people and create a safe mining environment.

Honda shows Geneva-bound E Prototype
February 28, 2019 02:36·
Honda's Urban EV throwback hatch will debut at Geneva, though under a new name, "e Prototype".
Speaking of black panels, the concave ones between the front and rear lights are clear hints to the Urban EV concept. Although still a prototype, it looks very much production-ready and is expected to go on sale, largely unchanged, before the end of the year. This means the electric vehicle will have "dynamic driving characteristics", says Honda, while the extra space up front means the front wheels can turn more, giving it a tiny turning circle similar to the Renault Twingo. Rather than traditional materials like leather, Honda has used a melange-style sofa fabric; the flat floorplan emphasizes the cabin space. Our experience with other EVs at city-appropriate speeds suggests the e Prototype should feel like a happy little chap around town. There's also a wood-like trim on the dashboard top and around the transmission controls. The screens could potentially be a far reach and too complex to be controlled only by touch, but Honda says the system "has been designed for ultimate usability" and uses "next-generation digital aids" for multitasking and menu navigation.
It's a miracle we've even seen this vehicle.
For example, Honda's next-generation digital aids will be presented alongside numerous car's comfort and infotainment controls for easy multi-tasking and in-menu navigation.
Iran's president rejects resignation of his foreign minister
President Donald Trump abandoned the nuclear deal, Zarif's conservative opponents accused him of selling out his country. Hardships have triggered waves of nation-wide protests, with calls for both Rouhani and clerical leaders to step down.
According to Honda, the e Prototype was deliberately designed with focus on advanced functionalities and goal, as well as engaging driving dynamics. It will be rear-wheel-drive, have a battery capable of more than 200 kilometers (124 miles) of range, and be capable of recharging 80 percent of its charge in a half-hour on a fast charger (of unspecified wattage). The electric motor sends power to the rear wheels to propel it along. We kinda buried the lede there, didn't we.
Honda is planning on two-thirds of its European sales being electrified by 2025, and the e Prototype has been designed with that goal in mind. The production auto will only be sold in Europe initially, with production beginning later in the year. The e Prototype represents Honda's "Electric Vision" strategy for Europe, and a production model is said to be introduced later this year.
More confusing is that the production vehicle is likely to be called something different still.

There have been several mentions over the past few months about ways to maximise the funds we have to donate to our charity partner Refuge at the end of the GLYC 2014. You may have noticed some (hopefully) enticing references to a raffle, or been intrigued by the hint of a big prize that will be handed out at the after-party.
It's also entirely possible that all of this is news, so let us take this opportunity to clear up any questions. Last year's after-party was awash with door prizes that we had a blast handing out, thanks to the incredible generosity of our many sponsors. This year they have stepped up to the plate yet again, and there is an embarrassing pile of loot piling up in Rachel's studio that is coming the way of all Yarn Crawlers. Some of it is goodies for the goody bags, but there's also a large collection of bits and bobs for door prizes and the Grand Prize to End All Door Prizes: the Raffle Basket.
All in all, it's going to be a grand towering pile of woolly, yarny, knitterly/crocheterly love for one lucky winner.
The next big question is, of course, how do I get my grabby little hands on this Basket of Joy? The answer is simple: by entering the raffle.
You can get raffle tickets in one of two ways.
1) Buy them at the after party, where they will be available at £1 per ticket (or 6 tickets for £5).
2) Bring a knitted item for Refuge and exchange each item for three raffle tickets at the after party.
In order to help get your inspiration flowing, we've done a bit of a search on Ravelry to find some suitable free patterns. What about Barley from GLYC sponsor Tin Can Knits? Make matching hats for Mum and baby, all from the same pattern.
Or the Star-Crossed Slouchy beret by Natalie Larson, with its lovely soft cables.
Here's a really cute hat and scarf combo from Drops design, sized from 3-12 years.
Or this hat/scarf/mitten set for babies and toddlers, also from Drops.
What about older kids? Aviator by Wei S. Leong is a super cool hat with scarf extension all in one.
And Duet by Linda Wilgus is a hat that can morph into a scarf/cowl and back again.
Per usual, the Ravelry advanced pattern search makes it super easy to find free patterns. And if you search for hat AND scarf, or hat AND mittens, you find all sorts of patterns that include both.
So pull out those needles and hooks, and get going! If you need yarn, let us know! We've got some yarn available for this project, so shoot us an email to greatlondonyarncrawl AT gmail DOT com, or PM stitchalli or porpoise on Ravelry, and we'll get you some supplies.
Remember, every item you bring for Refuge will get you a three free raffle ticket, and provide warmth to people going through difficult times this winter and beyond. Thanks, and we'll see you soon!


The index of consumer sentiment published by ISTAT dropped from 106.5 points in May to 105.8 points in June. The result was slightly better than expected by market analysts, which had consumer confidence falling to 105.2 points. With the June reading, consumer confidence moved further away from its long-term average of 113.0 points, after reaching its highest level since the beginning of the year in May. Consumer sentiment deteriorated as households' assessment of their financial situation moderated notably (-1.0 points). In addition, prospects for purchases of durable goods dropped markedly compared to the previous month (-7.0 points).

On DVD: Deathdream
Stephen Lackey October 8, 2004
DVDNewest Articles0 Comments1 views 0
Directed By Bob Clark
Starring: Richard Backus, John Marley
When you say "zombie" to most people they think of Night of the Living Dead, slow moving monsters attacking the living for sustenance. That for the most part is the mold from which zombies spring from. There have been some exceptions. Deathdream is one such exception. The zombie in this film retains his intelligence, his memories, and is able to speak and he even bares a social message.
Charlie and Christine Brooks have just received some bad news. Their son Andy, was killed in Vietnam. Later that night Charlie shows up on his family's doorstep. Happy that the Army has made a mistake they bring Charlie into the house. Charlie seems different though. He barely eats, he only speaks when he has too, and he is happy to sit in his room in the dark swaying back and forth in a rocking chair.
His mother and sister are unwilling to admit there is anything wrong. His father on the other hand realizes there's a problem and asks the local doctor to come by. Even after Andy kills the family dog his mother almost out of her mind refuses to admit anything is wrong. Andy ventures out at night alone looking for the one thing that will sustain him, human blood. If he doesn't regularly give himself blood transfusions
This movie is about so much more than just a zombie killing people for their blood. Deathdream explores the effects of the Vietnam war on the small town family. The once happy and vibrant family is torn down by the loss of their son. When he returns, even as a zombie he still remembers the horrors of the war and has no guilt over killing others to stay alive because of what happened to him and others in the war. He feels he is owed these people's lives in exchange for what he did for America. Of course his logic is out of whack, he's a zombie for god's sake. But his feelings and those of his family are representative of where the nation was at the time the film was made.
Deathdream surprised me in the level of creepiness throughout, mostly due to the outstanding performance by Richard Backus (Andy). His stern unflinching stare gave me chills. He felt like he could explode at any minute. John Marley, who had just been in The Godfather before making Deathdream, and Lynn Carlin were also very good as Andy's parents.
Deathdream feels very George Romero even though the zombies in those two films are polar opposites. Romero's no frills approach with very little visual flare adds a level of reality to his films that make them all the more scary. Deathdream feels the same way, with no frills camera work and minimal lighting that makes the film feel very much like a documentary. Like Andy, the film moves along very slowly and deliberately. Some may be turned off to this pacing but I actually feel that it added to the creepy surreal atmosphere of the film.
At the end of the film I had a few questions. How did Andy become a zombie in the first place? How did he get back from Vietnam? Does the military have someone else's body that they believe to be Andy's? I like to think that they brought Andy's body back to the United States and while in the Army morgue he just got up and walked out. We're never given any answer to these questions. To add to the confusion there is another guy playing Andy in a Vietnam sequence at the beginning of the film. These unanswered questions are only of minor concern once the story is really about Andy and his family,
It's creepy, well acted, and outside of the minor plot issues I mentioned it's well executed. It's interesting that Tom Savini took a job as an assistant on the special effects for this film right after he himself returned from Vietnam. Deathdream was released under several different titles including The Night Andy Came Home and Night Work. The only complete print available carries the title Dead of Night in the opening credits. So don't be confused and think you got the wrong disc in your box. This in fact is Deathdream, just under a different title. Any hardcore fan of 70's horror is used to this by now as many of that eras movies were renamed by various distributors thinking the name they picked was more appealing than the one it was given by its creators.
Dust, scratches, and grain, are apparent throughout, especially during darker scenes. Detail is good and colors look nice. The widescreen presentation is well produced for its age.
The Audio
The basic audio presentation is fairly clean and easy to hear with minimal noise. Score and dialogue are well mixed.
The Packaging and Bonus Features
The single disc release comes in a standard keep case with artwork I'm honestly not that fond of. I think it's a little more "B-Movie" than Deathdream actually is.
There are two really good commentaries on this disc. The first is from the director Bob Clark and David Gregory from Blue Underground. Blue Underground has utilized this technique of bringing in a staffer to these commentaries to moderate and interview. It works with great success in Clark's commentary as he seems to be a quiet individual. Gregory is able pull some great nuggets out of Clark during the commentary. Even with Gregory on board there are still some dead spots throughout.
Gregory's commentary with writer/make up artist Alan Ornsby is a bit more energetic with Ornsby sharing information on many subjects regarding the film including the title, and his ex-wife's part in the film. This commentary is also the funnier of the two with Ornsby not afraid to poke a little fun at his own work.
There are two interviews, one with actor Richard Backus, who plays Andy, and another with Tom Savini. Backus shares a lot of great information about the making of the film from his perspective. He even closes the interview by recreating his character one last time. Savini's interview covers his work as Ornsby's assistant and other work he did in the early days.
There's a theatrical trailer, an alternative opening sequence and an extended ending sequence, and a ton of still images including behind the scenes, posters, promotional stills, and more.
A surprisingly taut and creepy film from the man who would bring us Porky's.
Overall (Not an Average) 8/10

CSKA destroys Panathinaikos on the road
January 12, 2022 January 12, 2022 admin Basketball
By Eurohoops team/ [email protected]
CSKA Moscow put on an offensive clinic in the first half against Panathinaikos Athens to ultimately get a 98 – 74 blowout win on the road. This result improved CSKA to 11-7. Panathinaikos, that hadn't played a game in weeks due to COVID-19 problems, fell to 4-14 after losing its fourth straight game.
With Marius Grigonis (a season-high 19 points), Daniel Hackett (a season-best 17 points, six assists, five rebounds) and Tornike Shengelia (16 points) taking charge, CSKA overpowered Panathinaikos 13 – 34 in the second period to get a 33 – 60 lead at the break. The Army Men fired 11-18 3-pointers in the first 20 minutes by creating many open shots and making the most out of these opportunities.
Panathinaikos never became competitive in the rest of the game and was unable to even become a bit threatening. CSKA went up by 30 with three minutes to play in the third period and retained a big advantage. Ioannis Papapetrou dropped 16 points and Kendrick Perry scored a season-high 15 points, 10 of them in the second half.
This was the only EuroLeague game taking place Wednesday (12/1) and just the fourth to be held among all Round 20 matches following a series of suspensions due to most clubs suffering from multiple coronavirus cases.

The decomposition of organic byproducts from aquarium biological activity can produce a number of compounds that disrupt the balance of the aquarium. In natural bodies of water, these substances are easily rendered harmless by the sheer volume of the water. Aquariums tend to have a higher biological load than found in nature so removing these harmful products becomes more critical for the health of the aquarium and it inhabitants.

IDA Staff Pick Their Memorable Moments from 2015
By KJ Relth
It's the most wonderful time of the year: the time for publishing year-end lists! But we're not so interested in doing a "Best of 2015" list -- our own IDA Awards has that terrain well-covered. So instead, we turned to our colleagues here at IDA to weigh in on their most memorable moments of 2015. After much reflection and rumination, we've compiled the highlights from screenings, festivals, our own IDA programs, and community events to share with you, our community. While we couldn't include everything -- we would have a dissertation on our hands! -- we're happy to present the IDA staff's favorite moments from the past year.
Edwina Brandon, Director of Development and External Affairs
Part of the IDA Screening Series, Becoming Bulletproof helped celebrate people like my niece and inspired me to help her pursue her dream of acting. All she's wanted to do her entire life is be an actor, and she's done everything she can to be included, from being dressed as a tree and placed in the background to dressing up like a giant bird and running across the stage. When we watched Becoming Bulletproof together, it lit a fire in her that I haven't seen in a long time. That fire continues to blaze today.
Also part of the IDA Screening Series, Something Better to Come opened my eyes. At the age of 50, I was entirely naïve to the fact that people actually live in garbage dumps. As disheartened as I was at the beginning of the film, I found myself drawn in by Yula: her feistiness, her courage, and her persistence. She is one of the most inspirational people I have ever witnessed. She was born with nothing and overcame the most devastating odds to find the happy and dignified life she desired.
I have long been a huge Amy Winehouse fan. As such, I knew she lived a sad life. But I had no idea how deep her depression and loneliness went. Amy provided insight into her lyrics, giving me a much deeper appreciation for them. But the film also greatly saddened me and made me a bit angry. I've also questioned why society feels the need to feed off the privacy of celebrities. I personally believe it's an invasion and goes too far. This movie does a remarkable job of showcasing the damage the paparazzi can do to a celebrity and truly makes me question who was really responsible for the death of Amy Winehouse. This documentary made me miss her music and long for more.
Rodney Fayton, Controller
I have two bittersweet moments; saying goodbye to Michael Lumpkin after working with him for four years, and welcoming Simon Kilmurry to lead the organization to greater heights.
Mary Garbesi, Finance Coordinator
One of my most memorable documentary moments this year was gathering together during lunch with my colleagues to watch IFC's Documentary Now! series, starring Fred Armisen and Bill Hader. This well-crafted series pays loving homage to such doc classics as Grey Gardens and The Thin Blue Line. I appreciated its sharp satire about how how we represent ourselves on camera and how reality is presented to audiences, often in formulaic ways that are ripe for poking fun at. Who knew documentaries could be so funny?!
Lisa Hasko, Filmmaker Services Manager
One of the things I like best about documentary is when a film challenges a belief I'm holding onto and inspires me take a more nuanced look at an issue. That happened this year while I was watching submissions for the David L. Wolper Student Documentary Achievement Award. While there were many high-caliber films, one stood out as so beautiful and challenging that I knew instantly it had to be The One. It was The Archipelago, by director Benjamin Huguet. Using the crisp chill of the natural landscape and through the films' quiet stillness, the director showed, rather than told, the cultural importance of whale hunting for the people on the Faroe Islands. In the lead-up to the awards show, I regularly annoyed IDA's events department by begging to know who would win the Wolper Award. I'm glad they didn't tell me, because the excitement I felt when it was announced as the winner was worth the wait.
Ken Jacobson, Director of Educational Programming and Strategic Partnerships
Being shaken out of my slumber at 9am on a Sunday morning at Sundance by Brett Morgen's hilarious introduction of Kurt Cobain: Montage of Heck, followed by the film itself, which is brimming with Brett's artistic brilliance. I decided right then and there that we had to have Brett do an IDA Conversation. Cut to three months later at the Landmark in LA, sitting in the front row for Brett's IDA Conversation with Sundance's Trevor Groth. As I watched a clip of one of the amazing animated sequences in Montage of Heck, I found the layers of ambiguity that I had missed the first time.
During IDA's Conversation Series in July, Amy Ziering and Kirby Dick told the amazing story of how they showed a cut of The Invisible War to someone in the military who had refused to participate in the film while he remained in the military. After seeing the cut, he was so moved by what he saw that he chose to resign from the military rather than miss out on the opportunity to appear on camera. The resulting interview proved the transformative power of documentary beyond any question.
While it's technically not a doc moment, seeing the Academy's newly restored print of Satyajit Ray's Apu Trilogy at the Aero Theater in LA was a highlight. This masterpiece of social realism cinema stands apart. A joyful, painful experience that never fails to reach me at the deepest emotional level and renew my passion for film.
Amy Jelenko, Events Manager
I am inspired, humbled, and overall so grateful to have the opportunity to work with so many incredible filmmakers whose work is energizing audiences and bringing stories to light. Some highlights that come to mind are Glenn Greenwald talking with Marjan Safinia for the Q&A following the screening of Citizenfour at Docuday 2015. It was amazing, inspiring and frightening to get his first-hand account of domestic spying on citizens.
For the Screening Series, the Sachal Jazz Ensemble performing after the screening of Song of Lahore was amazing. The audience was clapping, dancing and enjoying themselves. This beautiful story came alive in front of our eyes!
At the IDA Awards, I love that Bob Odenkirk took a selfie with Ted Sarandos after a heartfelt and very meaningful Pioneer Award presentation, while Tony Tabatznik spoke about his love for documentary film and the profound importance of supporting a free media. I was pleased to see an absolute array of incredible filmmakers, including Gordon Quinn, receive recognition and well-deserved honors at the ceremony and after party. The heartfelt award presentations by celebrities and documentary stars just affirmed the universal importance of supporting this vital work.
Andrew Kaiser, Development Manager
So many amazing moments in an incredible year for docs, and for the IDA. I'd have to say that sitting shellshocked, at total loss for words after watching Joshua Oppenheimer's The Look of Silence at Cinefamily was a pretty intense experience. On the other end of the spectrum, howling with laughter throughout Morgan Neville's and Robert Gordon's fabulous Best of Enemies was a major highlight as well. Perhaps not coincidentally, both Joshua and Morgan led excellent Master Classes at the IDA this year. My role in securing funding for this program was a huge source of pride.
Simon Kilmurry, Executive Director
Watching Frederick Wiseman pitch his upcoming film In Jackson Heights at the Hot Docs Forum, and subsequently watching Wiseman's amazing film at TIFF. I was so thankful that he did not cut it from three hours to 52 minutes as was suggested by a panelist at the Hot Docs Forum! Another TIFF experience: meeting and hanging out with Princess Shaw and hearing her sing. What a joy! See her in Ido Haar's beautiful new film Thru You Princess, produced by the wonderful Liran Atzmor. Look for it in theaters in 2016. I was happy to see great friends win Emmys for their work: Jason da Silva and Alice Cook for When I Walk, and Martha Shane and Lana Wilson for After Tiller. So good to see good people get their deserved honors! And meeting the Patels! I just want to take them home. Such wonderful people.
Jina Lim, Corporate Relations and Advertising Manager
Binge-watching episodes of The Jinx with mountains of JetBlue snacks on my flights to and from LA has to be one of my favorite documentary moments of this year!
Katharine Relth, Communications Manager
The IDA was asked to co-present a screening of one of the documentaries at this year's edition of AFI FEST in November. The community-focused fest is not known for its extensive doc programming, so when the IDA was asked to choose the film they would like to co-present, I was pleased that almost the entire staff got behind No Home Movie, the final film by Belgian filmmaker Chantal Akerman. Still grieving from her sudden death no more than a month before the film's premiere in Los Angeles, I was reassured to be part of a team so willing to champion the work of an avant-garde, feminist filmmaker with such a distinct point of view. I joined a full screening on a Friday afternoon on the opening day of the Fest, where those who made it through all 115 minutes of Akerman's deliberate and devastating film were left with not just the poignant imagery of her mother and her declining health, but the haunting and beautiful ghost of a filmmaker too soon gone from this world.
Another 2015 highlight was an experience I sought out on my own, completely unaffiliated with the IDA. I will never forget the warm night in July when I joined a handful of friends at The Cinefamily to see A Poem Is A Naked Person, Les Blank's intimate Leon Russell studio / concert doc that was filmed from 1972 to 1974 but never saw a proper release until this year. It was a magical experience in a half-empty theater that I wanted to replicate as soon as it was over. Can I just have the joy and warmth of A Poem Is on a never-ending loop, please?
Ranell Shubert, Program Assistant
As the Awards Coordinator, I have privileged access to the hundreds of films submitted to the IDA Awards. It's astounding how high the bar for exemplary filmmaking is raised every year. I wanted to highlight a couple films not on that list that stood out to me this year.
Albert Maysles' final film, In Transit, takes us on a three-day cross-country ride on Amtrak's busiest long distance train route, the Empire Builder. Each small vignette with the riders on the train creates a microcosm of the American story, and remind us how diverse and beautiful this country really is. I don't think I'll ever be able to see an Amtrak train without thinking about the world of stories contained within.
Another stand-out film for me was Almost There, by Chicago filmmakers Dan Rybicky and Aaron Wickenden. I would recommend this film to anyone looking to make their first character piece. Almost There follows the filmmakers in their well-intentioned efforts to lift outsider artist Peter Anton out of his deplorable living situation; along the way they face myriad ethical issues. The film is a testament to Dan's abilities as an educator and is a paradigm case study of the delicate balance of the filmmaker/subject relationship. As a former student of Dan's, I myself have been challenged and inspired by him. It's a delight to see how well that part of his nature comes across on screen.
Another favorite from this year is by German director Julian Reich, Warrior Father King, which follows two UFC fighters in their struggle to make their mark in the brutal sport of mixed martial arts. Not only does the film explore the heartbreak and triumphs of these passionate fighters, but it also tells a story of friendship and redemption in a surprisingly emotional and heartfelt way.
Tom White, Editor, Documentary Magazine / Content Editor, documentary.org
There were two scenes that broke my heart in Amy. Both featured Tony Bennett, who, throughout his long, storied career, had his own struggles in and out of fame. The first scene was the Grammys, in which Winehouse, on a soundstage in London, thousands of miles away from the awards in Los Angeles, showed genuine awe when Bennett strode to the stage to present the award for Album of the Year. And it was not the fact that she won that elated her, but the fact that her idol, the artist who inspired her to sing with heart and soul, was giving it to her. And for that one moment, she forgot about the pain and the drugs, and felt truly anointed. The second scene was when they met face to face in the studio to record "Body and Soul," a song that predated her by seven decades, but suited her like a well-worn coat. She struggles through takes, but Bennett is so patient and compassionate and disarming. He's more than a mentor; he's her peer. A soulmate, even.
It was also a wonderful thing to behold an artist who is so generous with sharing his process, his vision, his self as Joshua Oppenheimer was in his Master Class. Some choice outtakes: "The human capacity for evil depends on our ability to lie to ourselves."…"When we boast we feel small." …"I don't think of myself as a storyteller; I think of myself as an explorer." …"Robert Bresson once said, "Let sound be the score."…Oppenheimer imparted such wisdom about the responsibility of an artist, the joy and pain of creativity, and the impulse to sense the signs and tropes and metaphors all around us that I came away as inspired—if not more so—as I was beholding his diptych masterpiece, The Act of Killing and The Look of Silence.

PLEDGE LAUNCH EVENT - REPORT
On 20 January 2021, universities, regulators, politicians, policy specialists, NGOs and the Gypsy, Traveller, Roma, Showpeople and Boater (GTRSB) communities came together to launch the Good Practice in supporting GTRSB students into and within Higher Education Pledge in an online event attended by more than 150 people. The event was broadly split into three sections: the first focusing on education policy approaches to widening participation for GTRSB communities; followed by an opportunity to hear about GTRSB community experiences of Higher Education; and ending with presentations on the Pledge's creation and University sign-ups to date.
The Vice-Chancellor of Buckinghamshire New University, Professor Nick Braisby, Chaired and opened the event: welcoming attendees, stressing the Pledge's importance to the Higher Education sector, and calling on senior leaders in Higher Education to take time to understand the experience of the GTRSB communities, to sign the Pledge, and implement the changes necessary to enable more GTRSB students to flourish.
Baroness Whitaker, Co-Chair for All Parliamentary Party Group (APPG) for GTR and a driving force behind the roundtable where the Pledge concept was first introduced, spoke of feeling honoured to take part in the Launch. She said the Pledge needs to act as a catalyst to create a welcoming environment in universities for the release of talent. Shadow Education Secretary, Kate Green MP, and former Co-Chair of the APPG GTR agreed, and said it was "really important we tackle discrimination and structural barriers that exist throughout the education system" by two means: increasing staff training and raising awareness of the history and culture of GTRSB students; and embedding education of GTRSB culture and history into the curriculum.
Chris Millward, Director for Fair Access and Participation at the Higher Education regulator, The Office for Students, and Professor Julia Buckingham, President of universities membership body, Universities UK, both reflected on the opportunities and momentum that the Pledge provides for universities to demonstrate leadership in society and transform the lives of GTRSB community members. Professor David Richardson, Vice-Chancellor of the University of East Anglia, spoke of how institutions may perpetuate systemic racism, acting as a key barrier to inclusion, something which the Pledge can help to address.
The next section of the event was dedicated to the voices and lived experiences of GTRSB community members who have been to university. Lisa Smith from the Advisory Council for Education of Romany and other Travellers (ACERT) explained how the communities experience stark inequalities and barriers at every stage of education. Lisa stressed that better support in education, and access to higher education is a matter of social justice and that institutions committed to the Pledge can signal a real step-change and improvement for members of the GTRSB communities.
Lisa both spoke about the work of ACERT and their engagement in developing the Pledge and also took part in a panel discussion chaired by Scottish Traveller Professor Colin Clark of the University of West Scotland. Colin Clark spoke of his own academic journey and emphasised that it was the responsibility of everyone participating in in Higher Education (staff, leaders and students) to level the playing field and enhance equalities and inclusion. Irish Traveller and PhD student, Martin Gallagher of Northumbria University, discussed the challenges and barriers he faced at secondary school which ultimately inspired him to return to study in his late 20s, as well as his commitment to ensuring GTRSB history and culture are marked in the educational curriculum. Fellow Irish Traveller, Chelsea McDonagh, the Education Officer for the Traveller Movement, had contrasting experiences to Martin at school, finding teachers welcoming and praising the support she was given which opened up educational opportunities for her. Chelsea praised the Pledge initiative and emphasised the need for universities signing it, to follow up words with actions.
Sherrie Smith of Buckinghamshire New University, spoke about her journey through Higher Education and how this has created a 'ripple effect' through her networks and extended family who have in turn become university-goers, noting how this has occurred across different generations with both mature students and young people entering into Higher Education. This has inspired her to push for change in the sector and played a key role in her input to the creation of the Pledge. Dr Aleksandar Marinov, an academic at the University of St Andrews, said he had never come across fellow Roma students or students from a Gypsy or Traveller background whilst studying at university. Dr Marinov said he felt Roma people were an "invisible community" at universities and hopes the Pledge will encourage institutions to include GTRSB history and culture in curricula to increase the visibility of the diverse communities.
One intended speaker (Mike Doherty) of London Itinerant Boaters was unable to participate in the panel as a result of poor connectivity where he was moored up, clearly if unintentionally evidencing the challenges faced by mobile community members without access to reliable and affordable internet access.
Showperson Shelby Holmes, an Oxford University graduate, rounded off the middle section of the event by talking about her upbringing and how her "iron will" to gain an education meant she sometimes had to sneak away from fairground duties to complete her schoolwork. Shelby poignantly asked attendees from a non-GTRSB community to imagine telling their families about wanting to join the circus and fairground industries, as a useful comparison about the barriers that Showpeople can face when they are seeking to leave a traditional family business and way of life to access Higher Education. Shelby concluded by reflecting on conversations she's had with older Showmen community members in their sixties and seventies, who told her that they would have loved to had the chance to experience Higher Education in the same way as she has.
Sherrie Smith and Professor Margaret Greenfields of Buckinghamshire New University then started the final section of the event by introducing the Pledge and explaining how universities could sign-up to the commitments. Dr Rosa Cisneros of Coventry University (a Roma academic) who has supported the Pledge's development throughout 2020, then followed Sherrie and Margaret in speaking about the co-production and collaborative development of the Pledge which brought together academics, community members, policy agencies and NGOs to ensure diversity of voices and collaborative agreement over core elements. Dr Cisneros discussed the Pledge's importance in enabling universities and key policy agencies such at the OfS and HESA to gain more data, and in creating an egalitarian and dialogic space for knowledge production, as well as the attractiveness of "strength in numbers" in garnering more support from both universities and community members in higher education.
Allison Hulmes, British Association for Social Work Cymru, National Director, and co-founder of the Gypsy Roma Traveller Social Work Association, who is a Welsh Romany, was the final presenter. She spoke of her great hope that the Pledge will make a difference to communities and the social work profession which needs to be more alert to, and aware of, the diversities of GRTSB communities and the discrimination they often face. Allison spoke about her family's personal experiences and how this had inspired her own educational journey.
There was a high level of 'chat function' engagement throughout the event, with participants from communities, NGOs, and universities entering into dialogue about comments made by speakers as well as raising issues which they would have liked to discussed in more detail had there been more time.
The event culminated with hearing from representatives of some signatory institutions, and the playing of 'commitment' videos from universities who had taken the Pledge prior to the launch event: Hull; Sunderland; Strathclyde; Winchester; and Buckinghamshire New University.
Professor Nick Braisby closed by thanking everyone for their contributions and encouraging other universities to both take the Pledge and for individuals to sign-up to the network of Practice which supports and underpins collaborative sharing of knowledge in relation to best practice in working with GTRSB students in Higher Education.

TOM Opacic has proved his fitness after a week off with a shoulder problem.
Opacic hurt his shoulder in the strong win over the Storm three weeks ago, and while he battled through the following week against the Roosters, it took its toll.
Coach Wayne Bennett took the option to freshen him up by leaving him out against the Titans in the elimination final last week.
It has paid dividends this week, with the Broncos losing James Roberts to suspension.
Opacic will play his usual role at left centre, with Jordan Kahu moving to cover Roberts' spot at right centre.
Jonus Pearson comes in on the wing.

Africa 2030 - Strengthening the Capacity of African Countries to handle the Challenges of a Changing Environment
3rd SYMPOSIUM ON CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION IN AFRICA
It is widely known that Africa is one of the most vulnerable continents to climate change. As the Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) produced by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has shown, climate change is expected to have widespread impacts on African societies, and Africans´ interaction with the natural environment. There are also signs that the impacts of climate change are already being felt, not only in terms of increases in temperature, but also in respect of agriculture (with lower crop yields) and the availability of water resources, among others. The links between climate change and the incidence of diseases - such as malaria - are also becoming clearer.
The above state of affairs illustrates the need for a better understanding of how climate change affects African countries, and for the identification of processes, methods and tools which may help African nations to adapt. There is also a perceived need to showcase successful examples of how to cope with the social, economic and political problems posed by climate change in Africa.
It is against this background that the Symposium &quot3rd SYMPOSIUM ON CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION IN AFRICA" is being organised by the University of Nairobi (Kenya), Manchester Metropolitan University (UK), the Research and Transfer Centre &quotSustainable Development and Climate Change Management" of the Hamburg University of Applied Sciences (Germany) and the International Climate Change Information and Research Programme (ICCIRP).
Under the title &quotAFRICA 2030 - STREGTHENING THE CAPACITY OF AFRICAN COUNTRIES TO HANDLE THE CHALLENGES OF A CHANGING ENVIRONMENT", the event will discuss the means via which African nations may foster their resilience and their capacity to adapt, meaning that it will serve the purpose of showcasing experiences from research, field projects and best practice in climate change adaptation in African countries, which may be useful or implemented in other countries in the continent. The Symposium will be a truly interdisciplinary event, organised in the framework of the 2030 UN Agenda for Sustainable Development, and Agenda 2036 of the African Union, mobilising African and non-African scholars undertaking research and/or executing climate change projects in the African continent.
Consistent with the need for more cross-sectoral interactions among the various stakeholders working in the field of climate change adaptation in the African continent, the aims of the Symposium are as follows:
I. to provide research institutions, universities, NGOs and enterprises from Africa and those working in Africa with an opportunity to display and present their works in the field of climate change adaptation;
II. to foster the exchange of information, ideas and experiences acquired in the execution of climate change adaptation projects, especially successful initiatives and good practice across the African continent;
III. to discuss methodological approaches and experiences deriving from case studies and projects, which aim to show how climate change adaptation may be implemented in practice;
IV. to network the participants and provide a platform so they can explore possibilities for cooperation.
Last but not least, a further aim of the event will be to document and disseminate the wealth of experiences available today. To this purpose, the &quotAfrican Handbook of Climate Change Adaptation: learning, sharing and advancing efforts to promote climate change adaptation in Africa" will be published, with all accepted papers.
This will be a further volume of the award-winning book series &quotClimate Change Management" published by Springer, which since its creation in 2008 has become the world´s leading book series on climate change management. The decision of the editors as to which papers may be selected and undergo peer review for the book and for the special issue, is final.

Here in Florida, we're no strangers to HOA or condo legislation.
Florida has more community associations than nearly all other states combined if you don't count California, and that means that The Man has made more than a few rules about how to run them (for better or for worse). And while there are currently no federal laws governing HOA or Condo associations, there are other states that have started to follow Florida's lead (a sentence I never thought I would write given our national reputation of generally being bananas) and implement state legislation of their own.
On top of state laws, there are also rules dictated by community association's governing documents. Governing documents generally start with a boilerplate template, and then get modified by the developer as to the specifics of the association. Once the Condo Association has been formed, and then turned over from developer control to board control, the board has the power to write new policies, add amendments and generally make changes that are in the best interest of the association.
So what happens when your documents say one thing, and the law says another? When you have to serve two masters, how do you do so without hurting your reputation or your bottom line?
1. The Law: Federal, State and County Laws always take precedence.
2. Recorded Maps: The Plat Map or Condo Map Plans recorded with the county comes next.
There will be some (many) cases in which the law and your governing documents cover the same requirement, but have different expectations. For example, Florida law says that Meeting notices must be publicly posted no less than 14 days prior to the Meeting. But your documents dictate that Meeting notices must be publicly posted no less than 30 days prior to the meeting.
When this happens, your best bet is always to follow the most stringent requirement to ensure that you meet the expectations of both establishments.
Like any legal conflict, there are shades of gray that take effect. For example, if the state law was only recently passed, but it blatantly conflicts with the governing documents that have been in place for 30 years, there may be some legal ability to extend the period before the law takes effect, or even argue to keep the policy in court. If you experience a conflict of this nature, we recommend you consult an attorney that specializes in community association law.

Chicago's #1 voter turnout Ward!
HomeElectionVolunteerUpcoming EventsAbout UsEndorsementsContact Us
About the 47th Ward Democrats
Our mission, values, what we do, who we do it for, and why we'd love you to join us.
Welcome, 47th Ward Democrats!
The 47th ward on Chicago's North Side is a place where we believe in progressive values like equal rights and opportunity for all. Our democratic ward organization sees a path to those values through politics. We work to elect strong Democrats who are faithful to those core values. We meet frequently and make decisions about our activities and endorsements collectively knowing the best way to energize people is to give them a voice. We work together with our Federal, State & Local elected representatives to make sure our communities' needs are met and our voices are heard.
The path to first place
We've become the number one Democratic vote-producing ward in Chicago. Let me say that again, Chicago is one of the most Democratic cities in the U.S., and the 47th Ward Democrats turns out the most votes for Democrats in Chicago!!
That also means we have the most say when it comes to deciding who the Cook County Democratic Party will endorse in our Primary election (*-slating/endorsements is done by weighted vote based on Democratic turnout in your ward).
We have not always been the best Democratic turnout Ward in Chicago. In fact, in 2014 we slipped all the way to 34th out of 50 Wards. But we turned it around by opening the organization to a new era of Democratic activists, while still embracing a robust precinct operation.
This 2022 primary season, we are registering voters and collecting signatures to get strong Democrats on the ballot. Then we are all in to elect them to office in November 2022. Will you join us? We strive to stay in the top Democratic voting ward in Chicago, but we can't do that without you. We also know that our organization only gets stronger with the inclusion of new and diverse voices. We would love to have you join us, we are truly making a difference in bringing progressive change to the city of Chicago, the state of Illinois and the White House.

Rainbowdrink – Unsure About Wine? Read This Article For Excellent Information.
Be sure you have a variety of wines on hand for special occasions. use these tips to pick great wines for various occasions and foods.
Pinot Grigio is a great choice for a wine served with your seafood dinner. A good wine will enhance your dining experience. Other white wines can be paired with seafood. Seafood and a nice white wine is one of life's greatest treats.
Learn about your wine shop. Each wine shop is different. The various shops have their own preferences, structures, and themes. Particularly if you are a new wine enthusiast, a shop that has a lot of pricey wines may not be your speed. Try to choose a shop that fits your needs.
Enjoy wine tasting events. Wine tastings are fun to go to and can teach you a lot about wine. You can even make it a social event. Find some other people that like wine too Wine can help solidify the friendship and introduce new acquaintances to a world of flavor and delight.
TIP! Experiment a little when purchasing wine. You can learn a lot about different countries by trying new wines.
If you want to start a wine collection, you should invest in a good wine cellar. You cannot store expensive wine or large quantities of wine in your kitchen for long periods of time. Any wine that will be kept for an amount of time can be preserved well within a wine cellar.
When purchasing wine, think about your tastes and preferences. Wine professionals may have strong opinions about which wines are best, but ultimately, your own palate is all that matters. If a less expensive variety tickles your fancy, then choose that wine with glee! Consume the flavors and brands that please your own taste buds.
Consider joining an online wine forum. Some excellent ones are available, and they provide you with a great place to chat with others and find out which wines may be worth trying. Before you go and sign up, however, be sure that you read over the boards before proceeding to see if you like the discussions there.
Decrease the amount of wine you drink if you notice a headache after drinking it to accompany a meal. Wine has a large amount of sulfites, which can give you headaches if you have it often. It is best to only drink in moderation.
TIP! Many varieties of wine will go well with your favorite dessert. Typically, dessert wines have a sweeter taste than the wines served during the meal.
Don't always believe everything you are told, even if the person claims to be a wine expert. Actual wine experts realize their limitations. Remember that no two people share the exact same tastes, regardless of expertise–or lack thereof. It is important to trust your own tastes, also.
Enjoy yourself when it comes to wine. Too much time is often spent trying to figure out all the components of wine and which wines go well with which foods. Be creative, have fun and enjoy wine.
Sign up for an online wine forum. You can learn a lot from the many different people that join these forums and have experiences to share and opinions to give. You may find a new wine that becomes one of your favorites from a suggestion made by another member.
Celebrate with wines you enjoy. Restaurants, bars, and stores may promote certain brands of wine, especially ones that are related to celebrities. These are generally 20 times the wholesale price. Just because the price is higher does not mean the quality is better. Pick a wine that you like and don't fall for the hype.
Many varieties of wine will go well with your favorite dessert. Generally, you will want a sweet wine with your dessert. Port wines are naturally sweet, and they go well with chocolate and most desserts. For best taste, serve them at a temperature of 55 degrees.
Wine comes in many forms, from white wine to red wine. When going to a liquor store, know which wine you need. This article had the tips you need, so make sure to keep them handy for when you may require them again.

It won't pass. It will never be like nothing ever happened. Whether we choose to acknowledge it or not, from the moment of conception, we are parents, and on some deep level, we realize it. After abortions, we are the parents of children who died, and carry the burdens of our parts in those deaths. No matter how strongly you may believe that you could forget about that child, I can tell you from experience it doesn't work that way.
Much has been written about women's post-abortion trauma, also called Post-Abortion Syndrome by pro-lifers. Less attention is given to the feelings of men. But many men suffer, too, and often suffer in silence.


Groups are for everyone – all of the time. It's ok for people to take breaks from group life occasionally. Even Jesus retreated away from his small group from time-to-time.
Home groups are always better than Sunday School. I think that Sunday School type classes still have their place in some churches for certain people. A few churches do both pretty well.
Group leaders have to be well trained before starting a group. We teach that leaders just need to be one step ahead of the people they are leading. I am a big believer in "as-needed training." More about that in another post.
Small groups are not weird. I guarantee that for most people, attending a small group for the first time was pretty weird. It was for me. But so was eating sushi.
Groups have to meet every week to be effective. I do believe that groups who meet more consistently bond quicker, but we have successful groups that have met every other week for years.
Only women really enjoy small groups. While it is true that women's groups tend to gel faster, we have men's groups that are changing the world.
Small groups are no longer effective in churches. As long as it's still true that Jesus created disciples in a small group of 12 guys, I am going to keep following that example.
Groups are only for committed believers. More on this in a future post that may make you think a bit.
There is a perfect groups system. Because there are no perfect people. Community is messy.
A good community group can exist without food. This one may just be about me.
Anything that you would add?
