Call for sub-project concept notes (Community Justice Programme in Uganda)
IDLO is rolling out a program that aims to secure accessible, quality and sustainable justice services for citizens - particularly those living in rural, poor and other disadvantaged communities. The Community Justice Programme (CJP) supports both state and non-state legal aid, legal empowerment and other justice delivery interventions.
Under this call, IDLO seeks to identify and provide financial support to a maximum of seven (7) non-governmental organizations to undertake interventions focusing on deepening access to justice in Uganda including through provision of legal aid and legal information, capacity building for justice actors, legal and policy advocacy, legal empowerment and other access to justice initiatives to vulnerable and marginalized communities living in rural areas in Uganda including women, children, refugees, displaced persons, victims of conflict-related sexual and gender-based crimes. The interventions to be supported should be geared towards contributing to the realization of one or combination of more than one of following eleven CJP outputs:
Extended coverage and delivery of quality legal aid and legal information services at the community level through non- state actors;
Improved community justice and Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) mechanisms;
Improved referral pathways among community informal and formal justice institutions, and to livelihood/ social / health service providers;
Enhanced capacity for property and land dispute resolution;
Improved access to justice for refugees, migrants, stateless and displaced persons within the context of transitional justice;
Increased awareness and capacity of women and girls to uphold and claim their rights;
Enhanced capacity of formal and informal justice actors to promote gender equality and provide gender-responsive justice;
Improved coordination and referral pathways on gender-based disputes;
Enhanced evidence-based gender justice-focused policy dialogues and reforms;
Strengthened social accountability forums and community engagement processes;
Integrated Information Management System and feedback mechanisms strengthened.
Applicants may be non-state institutions whether registered as non-governmental organizations (NGOs), institutes, associations, foundations, civil society organizations, NGO networks or consortia. For-profit organizations, Government agencies, and individuals are not eligible.
Interested candidates are invited to download the application guidelines and concept note template.
For additional information: uga-partners@idlo.int
Final deadline for the submission of concept notes: CLOSED
The response to this call for concept notes was exceptionally large and IDLO was pleased to receive a large number of valuable applications. The evaluation process is therefore still ongoing. Shortlisted candidates will be contacted as soon as the first stage of the selection process is concluded.

I'm currently sitting at the Education Center next to one of our awesome students, Mia.The center is going to close in a few minutes. As always, the fellows and I enjoyed spending another day with the amazing students that come to our center. We also had a new visitor, Wilson Li, today. We love showing people around the center so email us if you're ever interested in visiting or possibly volunteering.
Though, I really enjoyed celebrating 4th of July by camping at Poste Lafayette, the highlight of my week was definitely yesterday. Yesterday, I woke up around nine and went for a run through Plain des Papayes and into a nearby town. I tripped at least four times –- maybe I should ask Austin to repeat his lesson on balance? – but I had great time running along the sugarcane fields on a typical, sunny day in Mauritius. On my way back from the soccer stadium, I began to feel exhausted and slowed down significantly next to a group of elderly women. One of the women smiled and told me that it was great that I was exercising and encouraged me to keep going. Her words of encouragement were exactly what I needed to jog home. The friendliness of Mauritians never ceases to amaze. Later on that day, Ben, BJ, and I were also invited to a fishing trip by one of our neighbors. Ben is allergic to fish and I'm a vegetarian, but I was touched by the kind gesture.
Not long after, the fellows and I took a bus to the center. Within minutes of our arrival, our teenagers began trickling in. One of our students came up to me and snapped a red Ben 10 slap bracelet on my wrist, which immediately made me smile.
Creative writing class was also fantastic yesterday. We discussed theme and plot, read a short story, and began working on our own fictional stories. The kids are constantly becoming more creative and I've really enjoyed reading everything they've been writing. After class, one of the students talked to me about his desire to improve his English conversation skills and become a better writer. The dedication of our students is so impressive. It's been amazing to see all of them improve over the past month.
After Creative Writing class, I peaked into the music room and was immediately pulled inside. The students are choreographing their own dance to Beyonce's Run the World (Girls) and invited me to join. In less than an hour, the students, led by one of our amazing dancers, Wendy, choreographed an entire dance to Beyonce's song. After twenty years, I'm finally learning to dance! Learning zouk, sega, and the original choreography that our teens create has been absolutely amazing.
On an unrelated note we now have three stray puppies: Cappuccino, Espresso, and Caramel! After the death of Gunner, Austin's pet rat, the puppies are nice additions to the ELI Africa house.

Book Review: So What Are You Going to Do with That?: Finding Careers Outside Academia
July 12, 2018 | by Linda Louie
Berkeley students can read this book online now, for free, via Ebrary.
When it was first published in 2007, So What Are You Going to Do With That?: Finding Careers Outside Academia was one of the very first books written for graduate students exploring careers beyond the tenure track. While many more such books have come out in the years since then (such as The Unruly Ph.D. and Next Gen Ph.D.), So What Are You Going To Do With That? – now in its third edition – remains a definitive work on the subject. What makes the book indispensable is its blend of empathetic commiseration, practical "tough-love" advice, and empowering manifesto about the value of a Ph.D. outside the ivory tower.
The book's "You can do it!" message is supported by numerous real-world examples, which come from 100+ interviews conducted by the authors, Susan Basalla and Maggie Debelius. Because the authors both hold Ph.D.s in English, the examples in the first edition of the book mainly came from Ph.D.s with humanities backgrounds. The third edition, by contrast, incorporates a wealth of interviews with social science and STEM Ph.D.s as well.
While this broadening of disciplines is a welcome addition, the authors point out that the "post-academic" career path often has more to do with individual interests than with academic background. This is borne out by examples such as a biology Ph.D. who becomes a life coach, and a literature Ph.D. (from UC Berkeley!) who becomes a private investigator. The authors warn readers not to fall prey to the "Plan B dilemma":
"We've all been training for exactly the same job as assistant professor, so when post-academic careers come up, the first question is 'So what do we all do next?' – as if there can be a universal Plan B that will accommodate us all… the decision is — and must be — highly personal."
To figure out what your own personal Plan B is, the authors offer a number of soul-searching exercises. Some of these I found productive, such as the "Seven Stories" exercise, which instructs you to write about seven satisfying accomplishments from any time in your life and to see what they have in common. (Other prompts, like the suggestion to draw "before" and "after" maps of your brain, I found less helpful.) The authors also encourage readers to take advantage of career exploration resources offered by universities' Ph.D. career counselors.
The most helpful parts of the book, where co-author Susan Basalla's new profession as an executive recruiter shine through, are those that re-frame traditional job-hunting advice in terms that take into account the particular challenges (both practical and emotional) that Ph.D.s face. Some examples include:
Networking as research: In Chapter 3 ("Asking the Big Questions: How to Figure Out if You Want Them and They Want You"), the authors helpfully describe networking as research — a process at which Ph.D.s excel. They recommend three ways to research a possible career: via online resources; via people; and via hands-on experience. Each of these methods is explored in-depth, and they provide useful templates for questions to ask and emails to send.
From C.V. to Résumé: In Chapter 4 ("This Might Hurt a Bit: Turning a C.V. into a Résumé"), the authors anticipate some of the common missteps a Ph.D. might make, offering practical tips such as: divide your experience into categories relevant to the job at hand, rather than the "academic trinity" of research, teaching, and service; and don't shy away from counting part-time, volunteer, or internship positions as experience.
Perhaps the most controversial advice in the book is offered in the introduction, where the authors propose that students should explore "post-academic" jobs as an alternative to adjunct and postdoc positions, even for those whose ultimate goal is to stay in academia:
"Why not get a post-academic job while you wait for next year's market? You can shrink the pool of willing adjunct teachers and postdoctoral fellows. You can earn twice as much money at a job that doesn't consume your life the way academia does. You can live where you want to live… You can start knocking down your mounting credit card debt, prepare yourself for another career, and take back some power for yourself."
This advice may not resonate with all Ph.D.s. But anyone who is starting to chart a post-academic path — whether as a graduate student, an adjunct, a postdoc, or even (as was the case for several individuals interviewed in the book) as an assistant professor — will find So What Are You Going To Do with That? to be a welcome and welcoming guide to the world beyond.

L'eutanasia infantile è una forma di eutanasia che viene applicata ai bambini gravemente malati o affetti da gravi difetti alla nascita. Nel 2005, i Paesi Bassi sono diventati il primo paese a consentire l'eutanasia infantile nel caso di prognosi infausta e dolore intrattabile. Nove anni dopo, il Belgio ha modificato la sua legge sull'eutanasia del 2002 per estenderne l'applicazione anche ai minori. Come per l'eutanasia in età adulta, anche per quella infantile esiste un dibattito etico sulle questioni morali, filosofiche e religiose.

Documento parlamentare dei Paesi Bassi

Clémence Ross-van Dorp, segretario di Stato per la Salute, il Welfare e lo Sport, e Piet Hein Donner, ministro della Giustizia, hanno presentato l'11 novembre 2005 quella che ad oggi risulta essere l'unica proposta scritta e formalizzata presentata ufficialmente da rappresentanti di un governo ad un parlamento.
Tale proposta distingue e analizza, dal punto di vista legale, due possibili aree di intervento: la prima riguardante neonati e la seconda feti ad un avanzato stadio di sviluppo. In tale documento si precisa che, nonostante alcuni casi possano costituire un crimine in base alla legge dei Paesi Bassi, una eventuale azione legale è a discrezione del magistrato.
Altro elemento significativo riguarda la differenziazione tra modalità e motivazioni riguardanti l'eutanasia infantile, cioè il documento precisa che è a discrezione del medico decidere in quali casi sia applicabile l'eutanasia, indicando come criterio che la sofferenza debba essere o possa prefigurarsi "insopportabile". Invece il documento delinea chiaramente le categorie legali e le relative procedure decisionali relative ai vari casi, ed i criteri in base ai quali il magistrato debba giudicare se in uno specifico caso già verificatosi (si esclude un giudizio preventivo del magistrato) le modalità di messa in pratica dell'intervento siano state rispettate.

Il documento basa le sue proposte su vari consigli, decisioni, richieste pervenute allo Stato dei Paesi Bassi, tra i quali il più noto è il Protocollo di Groningen, già approvato dall'Associazione dei Pediatri dei Paesi Bassi, nel giugno 2005, come indicatore delle linee guida nazionali (il documento ricorda che il protocollo non ha alcun valore legale, e che quindi il magistrato potrebbe, a sua discrezione, ignorarlo).

Terminazione della vita di neonati

Il documento stabilisce che l'eutanasia infantile possa riguardare:
"Bambini che possono essere nati con pochissime prospettive di sopravvivenza o di ragionevole salute nel prosieguo della vita".
In particolare si distinguono due casi:
nel primo «deve essere chiaro che il bambino morirà entro pochi giorni o mesi dopo la nascita», ed in questi è da considerarsi «parte delle normali procedure mediche non iniziare o sospendere il trattamento», il bambino quindi è dichiarato morto di morte naturale.
nel secondo«"Un'altra possibilità è che, grazie alle cure, il bambino possa avere una limitata possibilità di sopravvivenza, ma che le sue condizioni di salute durante la vita seguente possano essere estremamente scadenti».
La decisione del medico è così presa: "compila una prognosi complessiva dell'attuale e del futuro stato di salute, prendendo in considerazione la relazione tra i fattori come il grado atteso di sofferenza, l'aspettativa di vita, il grado di degradamento [delle condizioni di vita] legato al trattamento, la capacità attesa di comunicare e di essere auto-sufficiente, e la dipendenza dal settore medico-assistenziale".
Anche in questo caso se la situazione è grave «è normale procedura medica non iniziare il trattamento o terminarlo», e il decesso è considerato morte naturale.

La proposta stabilisce che il caso venga legalmente registrato come eutanasia soltanto nei casi in cui la morte è intenzionalmente abbreviata a causa della "grave natura della sua sofferenza".
Al di là delle procedure decisionali specificate il documento stabilisce che "solamente l'attuale grado di sofferenza può servire come base per la decisione di terminare la vita".

Interruzione di gravidanze in stato avanzato

Un altro possibile ambito di applicazione dell'eutanasia riguarda le gravidanze in stato avanzato, cioè dopo le 24 settimane, in particolare di quelle per le quali "un serio disordine fetale è stato diagnosticato e che risulterebbe nella morte del feto".
Anche per questa possibilità vengono distinte due categorie.

La prima categoria riguarda i casi nei quali non si poteva ragionevolmente ritenere che il bambino non nato sarebbe potuto sopravvivere al di fuori del corpo della madre. Il disordine è intrattabile ed è quasi certo che muoia durante il parto o immediatamente dopo la nascita. Per questi casi il magistrato non è tenuto a decidere se agire o meno, benché debba essere informato del fatto.
Le modalità di attuazione dell'eutanasia sono specificati, per questi casi, dal novembre 2003 ad opera della Associazione degli Ostetrici e dei Ginecologi dei Paesi Bassi.

La seconda categoria comprende anomalie che portano a "seri ed incurabili disordini funzionali", ma esistono possibilità di sopravvivenza. Inoltre si specifica che il trattamento medico risulterebbe comunque in sofferenze per tutte la vita o potrebbe essere dannoso e la sua assenza porterebbe alla morte.
Si ricorda che benché questi interventi costituirebbero "un crimine secondo la legge" "invocare la necessità (inevitabilità) come base per l'immunità può in alcuni casi risultare in successo", a patto che "l'opinione medica prevalente [...] ritiene che l'intervento medico dopo la nascita sarebbe stato senza senso".

Procedure di valutazione legale

Dal punto di vista legale si stabilisce che soltanto i casi appartenenti alle seconde categorie rimangano crimini, benché la decisione di perseguire legalmente un medico sia a totale discrezione della magistratura, che usufruisce del parere non vincolante di un consiglio di medici nello specifico campo di specializzazione; inoltre viene specificato che «non tutti i fallimenti nel soddisfare i criteri legati alla dovuta cura porteranno ad azione legale».

Criteri della dovuta cura

I criteri variano a seconda che si tratti di gravidanze in stato avanzato o di neonati. È da notare che i criteri servono principalmente al magistrato per giudicare se la morte che riguarda i casi della seconda categoria sia stata legale, non al medico per decidere in quali casi praticare l'eutanasia. In altre parole sono criteri che indicano il "come" non il "perché" debba essere attuata tale condotta.

Neonati

 in base alla opinione medica prevalente, la sofferenza del bambino era insopportabile e senza prospettiva di miglioramento, il che significa che la decisione di interrompere il trattamento era giustificata. Non c'era quindi nessun dubbio sulla diagnosi e sulla prognosi, alla luce della opinione medica prevalente.
 i genitori del bambino hanno dato il loro assenso.
 il medico ha pienamente informato i genitori del bambino della diagnosi e della prognosi. Questo significa che insieme ai genitori il medico è giunto alla ferma conclusione che non c'era alcuna ragionevole alternativa alla luce della situazione del bambino.
 il medico ha consultato almeno un collega indipendente che ha visitato il bambino e ha dato un'opinione scritta in conformità con questi criteri. Alternativamente, il medico potrebbe aver chiesto le opinioni del gruppo medico che si occupava del bambino.
 la morte è stata data con la dovuta cura medica e attenzione.

Gravidanze in stato avanzato

 il feto aveva un disordine che ricadeva nella seconda categoria, ciò significa che era di una natura tale per cui dopo che il bambino fosse nato il trattamento medico sarebbe stato interrotto in base alle considerazioni che sarebbe stato senza senso da un punto di vista medico secondo l'opinione medica prevalente. In altre parole, non c'era alcun dubbio a proposito della diagnosi e della prognosi secondo l'opinione medica prevalente. In più, nella medesima opinione medica, continuare la gravidanza non avrebbe portato alcun contributo significativo ad una diagnosi più accurata.
 il bambino stava soffrendo o si poteva ritenere che avrebbe sofferto, senza alcuna prospettiva di miglioramento.
 la madre aveva espressamente chiesto che la gravidanza fosse terminata a causa della sofferenza fisica o mentale causata dalla situazione.
 il medico ha pienamente informato i genitori del bambino della diagnosi e della prognosi. Questo significa che insieme ai genitori il medico è giunto alla ferma conclusione che non c'era alcuna ragionevole alternativa alla luce della situazione del bambino.
 il medico ha consultato almeno un collega indipendente che ha visitato il bambino e ha dato un'opinione scritta in conformità con questi criteri. Alternativamente, il medico potrebbe aver chiesto le opinioni del gruppo medico che si occupava del bambino.
 la gravidanza è stata interrotta con le dovute cure mediche e attenzione.

Legge Belga
La legge approvata dal parlamento e firmata dal re il 2 marzo 2014, prevede che un bambino, di qualunque età, in preda a sofferenze intense (escluse quelle psicologiche), impossibili da alleviare e colpito da malattia incurabile, possa chiedere che si ponga fine alle sue sofferenze, facendolo morire mediante un'iniezione letale. In ogni caso dovrà possedere la capacità di intendere e di volere, e quindi dovrà essere giudicato in grado di compiere tale scelta, davanti a uno psicologo e a uno psichiatra, e dovrà avere il consenso scritto di entrambi i genitori o di chi ne fa le veci. Un pediatra ha espresso in questi termini la domanda che il paziente, anche se bambino, dovrebbe rivolgere: "Non lasciatemi morire in modo terribile. Lasciatemi andare quando sono ancora un essere umano con una propria dignità".

Per cercare di diminuire le polemiche, i sostenitori della legge hanno chiarito che nessun medico sarà obbligato ad applicare la legge, che saranno garantite le cure palliative, e che la richiesta di eutanasia da parte di un minore sarà esaminata dall'équipe medica che ha in cura il paziente.

Stimulated Muscle Contractions Regulate Membrane-Bound and Soluble TLR4 to Prevent LPS-Induced Signaling and Myotube Atrophy in Skeletal Muscle Cells

Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) activation by lipopolysaccharides (LPS) contributes to chronic inflammation and causes upregulation of muscle atrophy signaling pathways. Exercise can suppress LPS/TLR4 axis activation by reducing the expression of TLR4 on immune cells. It is unknown how this regulation occurs, and it is not clear how exercise affects TLR4 on skeletal muscle. PURPOSE: To uncover the nature and mechanisms by which exercise affects TLR4 expression and intracellular signaling using cell culture models and human experiments. METHODS: C2C12 myotubes were subjected to electrical pulse stimulation (EPS) with and without subsequent treatment with 500 ng/mL lipopolysaccharide (LPS) along with corresponding control conditions. To investigate the effect of muscle contraction on the regulation of TLR4 in-vivo, we analyzed PBMC and serum samples from eight recreationally active men that completed 60-minutes of cycling at a moderate intensity (65% of VO2max). RESULTS: In-vitro, LPS decreased membrane-bound TLR4, increased TLR4 signaling (decreased inhibitor of κBα), and induced myotube atrophy. However, stimulated muscle contractions decreased membrane-bound TLR4, increased soluble TLR4 (sTLR4), and prevented LPS-induced signaling and myotube atrophy. In human participants, a single bout of moderate-intensity exercise decreased membrane-bound TLR4 on PBMCs and increased serum-borne sTLR4. CONCLUSION: These experiments support exercise may exert a novel anti-catabolic/ anti-inflammatory effect by increasing sTLR4 and decreasing TLR4 expressed on the muscle membrane. These results could help improve interventions for conditions associated with TLR4-mediated inflammation and muscle atrophy, such as diabetes, sarcopenia, and cancer cachexia.

"Manchester City Council said it had "listened carefully to the concerns of the local community".
If you look at the cutting of wetland film this doesn't look like retaining wooded wetland . The wooded area was planned to be cut and little has changed.
-Trees will always be in conflict and I suspect the trees will loose out just like the clear cutting of the Peace Garden did a few weeks ago in city center. How many of the people of Manchester did you consult about their Peace Garden (seem familiar story).
Would the Council be willing to put tree protection orders on all the trees around the courts that they are willing to save now after listening to the people ? That would be really listening.
Are you to really willing to Listen and act on this request for TPO's.
and as far as the lake goes with nesting herons would you be willing to hear we don't want the beautiful trees cut down around the lake with out really talking and listening to what we want?

Thanks for responding as I raised this in the FB group. Could you help strengthen my argument further by showing what has changed from the master-plan to now (18-Feb-13)? For example in your opening paragraph you say "The wooded area was planned to be cut and little has changed"; does this mean we have won a small battle or "little has changed = nothing has changed". I ask so that I can go back to the Cllr with the complete picture – I believe this will help strengthen my argument that more trees should be retained. Thanks in advance for your help.
The only change council reflected back to us was to consider wetland grasses in this area as opposed to the original plan which said the area would be returned to grass.
As you can see from the film that was always going to be a very tall order as Jacqueline Whitworth the council contract planner indicated on 1st Dec2012 at the Council Open Day in the park that no drainage work was planned.
Note the Council has actually destroyed more tree numbers than they have admitted to the public and press so its basically a press related con job in actual tree numbers cut as they keep quoting the 258 reduced to 230 odd etc.
The number of trees cut in the area was far more than the figures hence the 413 trees and 137 small ones less than 6 inches the council had 258 originally and 93 trees of 3 to 4 inches planted.
all these films are under videos on this WordPress site.
The area in the photo is clearly Wet Woodland, this is a UKBAP priority habitat. You could try approaching Greater Manchester Ecology Unit about formally making the area a Site of Biological Importance (SBI). If trees are removed from wet woodland these areas tend to dry out, so it is really important the area is planted up quickly with species like alder and willow to preserve the original habitat.
I have other issues about the tennis courts. The planning permission says only that they will be built. It has no details. In very small print it refers to a 3 metre high wire mesh fence which will block the view of half of the park for the people on Smalldale Avenue. The planning application says that EVERY SINGLE HOUSE on Smalldale Aveunue has been conusulted. I have yet to find a single person who has been consulted. The first detail most saw was on the maps Circulated by the Save the trees group. I t also says that minor details like the PRICING STRUCTURE, will be decided later. I have been told that it may be a BEACON SCHEME, which if you google this, says that a tennis club can gain this status if it gives a few free slots to the locals. One has free slots on two out of its 10 courts, at 7am on a monday wed and fri, as well as an hour on a saturday and sunday afternoon. Another from what I could see had only a 2 hour slot on a sunday afternoon. The rest of the time, normal charges apply. One such club charged £6 for a child and £12 for an adult. Even in a free slot , you might have to pay eg a £5 deposit for a racket. This is not inclusive and the first response I got in discussing what could happen was "Oh so the fence is to keep the locals out" – not to keep the balls in. If this happens and the locals view the cage as "containing" the well off, it will cause resentments. IF the scheme then fails, we will be left with a derelict cage, obscuring our view and collecting litter. This may not be the inclusive idea of getting local kids to have a knock about and get interested in the sport (Before joining one of the several local clubs I am lead to believe exist) IF I am to sign up to a plan. I would like to know exactly what it is before I sign – particularly if I am to lose my beautiful view of half of the park.
I am also concerned as to whether the access point will be closed off – it is not clear on the plans – is it going to be an access point to the club and not the park. ALL the locals enter the park through this point!!!!
People I have spoken to have expressed anger especially when they have NOT been consulted.
I have written to the council for answers, but have not so far had a reply. I also agree with the leaves issue, likely to fall on the courts and cause problems for them. WHY IS THIS NOT BEING SITED WHERE THE OLD COURTS WERE????? WHY SHOULD WE LOSE OUR VIEW WHEN THERE HAS BEEN NO DIRECT CONSULTATION WITH US. THIS IS SCANDALOUS!!!
SORRY – CORRECTION – IN VERY SMALL PRINT ON THE MAP PROVIDED BY SAVE THE TREES, NOT IN THE PLANNING PERMISSION!!
i DO NOT BELIEVE THAT IT SHOULD BE WHERE IT IS PROPOSED OR BE ALLOWED TO BLOCK OUR VIEW AND IF THERE ARE 4 COURTS AND IT DOES GO HERE, IT SHOULD NOT BE AT THE HOUSES END!!!!
If you contact the Council and have not had a response within 7 days, please lodge a formal complaint via the council website. They have a duty to respond to residents.
Can I ask too, if the tennis courts are to be run by some tennis club. On what basis will they have the facilities / land. Is it being rented to them or sold off to them?
I have been following the awful situation at Alexandra Park since Dec 2012 and have raised a number of concerns with my councillor, Alistair Cox. I have received a reply from him but he clearly thinks that all is well with this brutal destruction of our park, that the consultation really captured what local people thought and this is overwhelmingly not true.
I have been waiting for a proper response from Manchester City Council and am astonished that no-one has made any efforts to meet with us or to make a statement that answers the very valid questions that have been raised.
I expected better from a Labour (majority) Council.
I could go on at great length about what is wrong with all of this but I am certain you already know.
Thank you for your email in which you have raised concerns about the Alexandra Park project. The tree felling is an element of the enabling works taking place in the park, which is part of the £5.5m restoration scheme that is jointly funded by the Council, Heritage Lottery Fund and a number of sporting bodies. The scheme will completely transform the park through its landscape and infrastructure refurbishment, the provision of state of the art sports facilities and the restoration of the historic buildings. It is intended to create a park that is fit for the 21st Century and is valued and accessed by the local community.
The plans for Alexandra Park have been developed over 10 years and the Council has tried hard to involve as many people as possible in the consultation discussions. The 2011 consultation highlighted, for example, that the natural aspect of the park is very important to some users. This directly led to the creation within the plans of separately zoned areas. Three distinct zones were created – a Community Zone, a Natural Zone, and a Formal Zone. These modifications were introduced in direct response to feedback from consultation. Although Alexandra Park is a Grade II registered park, there is no intention to recreate a park that is totally Victorian in nature. By creating separate zones it is intended to create a contemporary park fit for modern day demands. Consultation has shown that Alexandra Park has a diverse range of users. The intention is that by having the three zones with their own character and focus, the park will cater to the many differing needs and interests whether it is the natural world, heritage appreciation, social activity, sports or play.
Consultation with the local community has always been an integral part of the process and a wide range of engagement has taken place, all of which has helped to shape and inform the overall scheme, with changes made over time in direct response to views raised during consultation. In preparation for the 2012 bid to the HLF there were over 1,700 separate consultations and in addition to this, there were a number of informal consultations with residents in the park and at meetings in the local area. By taking this approach to consultation, together with the publicity produced and dissemination of information via a number of networks, we aimed to ensure that there was a high level of awareness of the project in the local area.
The results of the consultation that was conducted in the park in 2011 showed that the majority of people who already use the park feel safe in the daytime, but that safety is more of an issue at dusk and in the evening.
This is particularly the case for women, with almost twice as many females as males stating they felt unsafe in the evening. 26% said they usually came to the park in the evening and it is likely that even more would do so if safety concerns were allayed. An additional survey of non-users in the local area told us that they feel that the park did not feel safe and is the reason that they do not visit. Thinning the overgrown shrubs and self seeded trees will allow sight lines to be opened up across the park and engender a feeling of safety, encouraging more people to use the park. More recent communications with Greater Manchester Police have also indicated that safety is an issue and we have agreed with them that more foot patrols will take place and that we will provide local officers and PCSO's hot desk space in one of the renovated buildings. We have also been asked by Design for Security to not introduce shrubs which exceed 1m in height due to a general lack of visibility with the park.
The Park covers an area of 60 acres; it has a stock of 1590 trees within the boundary walls. Whilst many have been planted, many are self sown and have developed within shrubberies which are dense, creating areas of the park where some people have expressed grave concerns over personal safety.
58 trees will be removed to address issues of personal safety.
92 trees will be planted in the park including varieties already present such as Lime, London Plane and Poplar and adding new species such as Oak, Rowan, Cherry, Apple trees, and Pear trees bringing greater diversity to the tree species in the park.
Overall, 90% of the tree stock in the park will be retained. In addition, 7000m2 of a variety of plants and shrubs is also being planted, creating an area rich in flowering plants and berries essential to improving the biodiversity in the park and a home for wildlife. The Council recognises the importance of trees and that is why since 2006/07, we've overseen the planting of more than 92,000 in Manchester – some 10,300 this year alone.
We have planning consent for the removal of 265 individual trees. However, as a result of regular design review and on-site mitigation during the works the individual tree removal count came down to 247. We have also taken a decision to reduce the number of new tennis courts being provided by the project from six to four and it is likely that we will be able to retain a further 15 trees in the location designated for the new courts. This decision was as a direct result of concerns raised locally and not taken lightly bearing in mind that the six court approach was fully funded by the Lawn Tennis Association. Overall this brings the current individual tree removal total down to 226 (12.5% reduction), with potentially more to come as we move through this phase of work. These changes are a product of our ongoing constructive dialogue with the community.
A Tree Protection Plan has been formulated and will be installed following the clearance of dense vegetation. Due to the density of the existing vegetation in some areas, the network of hardstanding around the park and the requirement to retain as much of the park open to public access as possible, it is not feasible to fence each tree according to the Root Protection Area advised within BS 5837 2012. The clearance works are being undertaken in a manner to reduce impacts on retained trees. For example, tree felling within one area was undertaken by clearing from the outside towards the inside, and the felled trees are being felled to fall away from any existing trees which are being retained.
They should be stored in a cardboard box and kept warm and dry, taking great care not to let them escape.
It is feasible to store multiple hedgehogs in one box.
The Hedgehog Preservation Society carer should be contacted – for Manchester, this is Barbara Roberts on 0161 445 5917 – and her facility is open 24 hours to take in the hedgehogs.
Hedgehogs should be taken to the facility within a reasonable time frame and under no circumstances, left on site overnight.
Areas with the potential for containing hedgehogs nests are areas of shrubs and scrub, piles of leaves and stockpiled vegetation.
For the avoidance of doubt, all vegetation should be checked thoroughly prior to clearance.
Shrub clearance is to be carried out using light weight machinery using a method statement and watching brief.
If any cleared vegetation is to be stockpiled, it should be done so in a designated area of the site which would be left undisturbed until April, and subsequently removed in spring.
Should any other hibernating animals be found during vegetation clearance they would be carefully placed under vegetation ensuring they are warm and dry.
The GMEU will also be present on site when trees with Bat Roost Potential (BRP) are being felled, so that those trees would be checked for hibernating bats. GMEU visited the site in December 2012 to check which trees had BRP.
We also have a qualified ecologist attending the site on a daily basis to work with our contract team in ensuring they adhere to the principles of the Biodiversity Master Plan and give advice on wildlife and habitat protection.
In summary, we wish to avoid the onset of the bird nesting season. With the delays caused by the onsite protest this has become a very tight timescale and postponing the works further will mean additional unidentified costs and potentially compromising the overall programme for the project. As outlined above, we see no justifiable reasons to halt the work and as such the programme will continue but we will continue to listen to comments and concerns from members on the public and respond accordingly.
The plans for Alexandra Park are extremely exciting and the Council are confident that through consultation they have developed a plan with the local community that will ultimately allow more people to use and enjoy the park.
-who have been left with little other effective choice to stop your vast tree cutting and wildlife habitat removal plans – due to your some have said "arrogant" attitude to a very significant objection to your plans.
Even if the Council put TPOs on the few remaining trees around the courts, the Council using their role as planning authority can just give themselves planning permission to add the extra courts later. Planning permission always over-rides TPOs, effectively revoking them. Also TPOs are rarely used upon trees on land controlled by a local authority, they are used to protect trees on private land from deliberate damage and destruction by private individuals or businesses. The Council, in its role as planning authority have the discretionary power to create and revoke TPOs as it sees fit, without having to explain itself to anyone. So any effort to protect the trees in the park using TPOs isn't going to be effective.
We need to be asking the Councillors why planning permission was granted without a full and proper BS:5837 tree survey having been carried out, especially given the large number of trees impacted on by this development. Why has the Council ignored the recognised British Standards and procedures laid out in BS 5837:2012 and what sort of example is the Council setting to private land-owners who have 'inconvenient' trees on their land.
Without producing accurate scale drawings showing the exact location of every tree and the root protection areas of trees to be retained, how can they be sure what is feasible and what is not? It is entirely feasible to have public accesses through the root protection area of existing trees. Tree protection fencing or barriers are designed to exclude heavy vehicles and machinery, not exclude people.
A tree may take a century to reach maturity, so protecting and caring for them properly during the construction phase of a project is very important. By not making any effort to implement BS 5837:2012 the Council are acting contrary to best arboricultural practice. BS 5837 is about getting the proper balance between the needs of tree protection, construction and public access.
To argue that you can't implement BS 5837 because of the need to retain public access to every tree is to make a fallacious argument. Following the IRA bombing, Manchester City Centre was a construction site for many years. Despite the large numbers of people using the city centre daily and the massive amount of construction work taking place, it was possible to erect fencing to protect the public from risk, whilst allowing public access to most areas. If it is feasible to use protective fencing in a city centre and balance the needs of construction, public access and public protection, then there is no reason the same cannot be done in a public park. Why would we have British Standards if it wasn't feasible to implement them?
If you cannot erect tree protection fencing because of undergrowth, you cut back the offending vegetation using a brushcutter. In the real world, people use brushcutters to cut back vegetation to erect fencing every day. The presence of a bit of bramble in some areas is not a valid reason not to implement British Standards across a 60 acre site. If the Council have no intention of implementing root protection areas and protective fencing, how can claim to be implementing a Tree Protection Plan? If a Tree Protection Plan doesn't conform to BS 5837:2012 then it isn't a real Tree Protection Plan, just like their tree survey and tree felling plan which don't conform to recognised industry standards.
Also tree protection fencing or barriers are versatile and be erected on a variety of terrain, including on "hardstanding" areas like pavements, driveways and tarmacked areas. None of the reasons the Councillor gives for not implementing BS 5837 stand up to serious scrutiny.
The above 'wetland area' only became so wet when in early December, United Utilities were digging and pumping drains/sewers directly oppposite on Alexandra road. The water appeared then along with a really bad stench. Thats the wettest its ever been and has been sinking back into the soil ever since leaving a stinky. oily residue.


Ehrlichiosis is an illness caused by a bacteria called Ehrlichia that is passed to humans and animals through the bite of an infected tick. Two different forms of human ehrlichiosis primarily occur in the U.S., human monocytic ehrlichiosis (HME) and human granulocytic anaplasmosis (HGA). HME is the most common form of ehrlichiosis reported in Oklahoma. Dogs and horses are the domestic animals most frequently diagnosed with ehrlichiosis.
Ehrlichiosis is acquired from the bite of an infected tick. The main tick vectors are the "lone star tick" transmitting HME and "black-legged deer tick" transmitting the HGA agent. Ehrlichiosis is not spread from one person to another, or from contact with an infected animal.
Who is at risk for ehrlichiosis?
All persons are susceptible to ehrlichiosis, but persons who spend long amounts of time outdoors are more likely to have exposure to infected ticks. There is a seasonal risk for becoming infected with erhlichiosis because the ticks are most active and numerous during the spring and summer months. Most cases of ehrlichiosis occur from May through September.
The symptoms of ehrlichiosis commonly include fever, headache, chills, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, confusion and muscle pain. In addition, some persons (about 60% of children, less than 30% of adults) may also develop a rash. Persons who are over the age of 50, or who have weakened immune systems appear to be at a higher risk of severe disease. Death can occur, especially if appropriate diagnosis and treatment is not received.
Symptoms of ehrlichiosis can appear as soon as five days and as long as 14 days after the bite of an infected tick. If symptoms of illness appear within 14 days of the tick bite, immediately inform your health care provider of your tick bite exposure and the date on which the tick was removed.
What is the treatment for ehrlichiosis?
Treatment for ehrlichiosis with certain antibiotics, such as doxycycline, is very effective in treating the disease. Overall, an estimated two to three percent of persons with ehrlichiosis will die due to the infection. Although ehrlichiosis can be severe, preventive antibiotic therapy in persons who are not ill following a tick bite is not recommended.
What is the best protection from ehrlichiosis?
1. Wear light colored clothing to make ticks easier to see.
2. Wear long-sleeved shirts and long pants tucked into socks to deprive ticks of attachment sites.
4. Hikers and bikers should stay in the center of trails to avoid grass and brush.
5. Check for ticks AT LEAST once per day; particularly along waistbands, in the armpits and groin area. Don't forget the back and the hair!
6. Use a tick repellent with DEET on skin and clothing according to directions.
7. Use a tick repellent with permethrin ON CLOTHING ONLY and as directed by the label.
Any tick should be removed as soon as possible. The best way is to use tweezers to grab the tick as close to the skin as possible and pull it straight out. Do not squeeze the tick's body when removing it. Do not handle ticks with bare hands. Wash hands thoroughly after removing a tick.
Purpose What is ehrlichiosis? Ehrlichiosis is an illness caused by a bacteria called Ehrlichia that is passed to humans and animals through the bite of an infected tick. Two different forms of human ehrlichiosis primarily occur in the U.S., human monocytic ehrlichiosis (HME) and human granulocytic anaplasmosis (HGA). HME is the most common form of ehrlichiosis reported in Oklahoma. Dogs and horses are the domestic animals most frequently diagnosed with ehrlichiosis.

Q: How to Remove the First and Last double quotes in the JSON String in JavaScript? Hi guys I wanted to remove the double quotes from the first and last places of the JSON string and I need to place one JSON object in another and I will display my code and my requirement.
var sysMsg = new Object();
    sysMsg.timestamp = "100";
    sysMsg.seq  = "5";
    sysMsg.serviceid = "21";
    sysMsg.srcip = "192.168.0.1";
    sysMsg.ver = "1.0";
var sysString= JSON.stringify(sysMsg);
window.alert(sysString);

var systmMsg = new Object();
systmMsg.sys =  sysString;
// JSON.stringify(hdrString);
var sysFinal= JSON.parse(systmMsg);
alert(sysFinal);
sysFinal = sysFinal.replace(/\\/g, "");
window.alert(sysFinal);

var hdrMsg = new Object();
hdrMsg.appcontext = "context";
hdrMsg.appname  = "appName";
hdrMsg.appid = "identifier";
hdrMsg.cmd = "command";
hdrMsg.timeout = "500";
hdrMsg.option = "optionCommand";
var hdrString= JSON.stringify(hdrMsg);
//window.alert(hdrString);
var hdrFinal = new Object();
hdrFinal.hdr =  hdrString;
var hdrFinalMsg= JSON.stringify(hdrFinal);
hdrFinalMsg = hdrFinalMsg.replace(/\\/g, "");
window.alert(hdrFinalMsg);

var dataMsg = new Object();
dataMsg.CntrlID = "6";
dataMsg.Devinst  = "1";
dataMsg.btnstatus = "btnStatus";
dataMsg.DevID = "33";
dataMsg.value = "true";
dataMsg.status = "errorStatus";
var dataString = JSON.stringify(dataMsg);
//window.alert(dataString);

var dataFinal = new Object();
dataFinal.data =  dataString;
var dataFinalMsg= JSON.stringify(dataFinal);
dataFinalMsg = dataFinalMsg.replace(/\\/g, "");
window.alert(dataFinalMsg);

var appData = hdrFinalMsg.concat(dataFinalMsg);
var appFinal = new Object();
appFinal.app =  JSON.stringify(appData);
var appFinalMsg= JSON.stringify(appFinal);
appFinalMsg = appFinalMsg.replace(/\\/g, "");
window.alert(appFinalMsg);

var finalData = appFinalMsg.concat(sysFinal);
var finalMsg= JSON.stringify(finalData);
finalMsg = finalMsg.replace(/\\/g, "");
window.alert(finalMsg);

Here I am getting the string as following
"{"app":""{"hdr":"{"appcontext":"context","appname":"appName","appid":"identifier","cmd":"command","timeout":"500","option":"optionCommand"}"}{"data":"{"CntrlID":"6","Devinst":"1","btnstatus":"btnStatus","DevID":"33","value":"true","status":"errorStatus"}"}""}{"sys":"{"timestamp":"100","seq":"5","serviceid":"21","srcip":"192.168.0.1","ver":"1.0"}"}"

but I want the output as below
{"app":{"data":{"Cntrl.ID":"6","Dev.inst":"1","btn.status":"btnStatus","Dev.ID":"33","value":"true","status":"errorStatus"},"hdr":{"appcontext":"context","appname":"appName","appid":"identifier","cmd":"set","timeout":"500","option":"optionCommand"}},"sys":{"srcip":"192.168.0.1","ver":"1.0","serviceid":"21","seq":"5","timestamp":"100"}}

A: Here you go
var yourString = "{JsonString}";
var result = yourString.substring(1, yourString.length-1);

Or you can use .slice
var result = yourString.slice(1, -1);

A: I refactored your code so you can have a look how to do this getting rid of all these string operations:
If you work with objects- just work with them and serialize to JSON when you've got what you need:
fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/myppwgmb/
And here is how I would have done it:
var sys = {
  timestamp: "100",
  seq: "5",
  serviceid: "21",
  srcip: "192.168.0.1",
  ver: "1.0",
};

var hdr = {
  appcontext: "context",
  appname: "appName",
  appid: "identifier",
  cmd: "command",
  timeout: "500",
  option: "optionCommand",
};

var data = {
  CntrlID: "6",
  Devinst: "1",
  btnstatus: "btnStatus",
  DevID: "33",
  value: "true",
  status: "errorStatus",
}

var dataFinal = {
  app: {
    data: data,
    hdr: hdr,

  sys: sys
}

alert(JSON.stringify(dataFinal));

Chicago Public Library partnered with the MacArthur Foundation to launch YOUmedia in 2009 as a way to engage teenagers at the library. The space is equipped with a music studio, digital cameras, 3-D printers, loads of computers and, of course, books. It's all self-driven, but there's a staff of mentors and librarians ready to help.
The loose atmosphere is based on University of California, Irvine professor Mizuko (Mimi) Ito's study that found teens engage with digital media by "hanging out," "messing around" and "geeking out," as she puts it. Teens can "hang out" at the center by playing games or relaxing, but mentors are there to help them "mess around" or learn how to use new tech and gadgets, and "geek out" or dive deeper into passionate projects, like music production, designing a float or writing poetry.

Joshua Tanenbaum always envisioned creating a mixed-reality game that incorporated elements of theater, costumes and dance. The UC Irvine assistant professor of informatics got his chance last fall when he collaborated with then-student Natalie Nygaard to start developing an interactive storyline for a physical game called Magia Transformo — The Dance of Transformation.
An international team of eight researchers didn't set out to measure GitHub duplication. Their original aim was to try and define the "granularity" of copying – that is, how much files changed between different clones – but along the way, they turned up a "staggering rate of file-level duplication" that made them change direction.
Presented at this year's OOPSLA (part of the late-October Association of Computing Machinery) SPLASH conference in Vancouver, the University of California at Irvine-led research found that out of 428 million files on GitHub, only 85 million are unique.

Most source code files hosted on GitHub are actually clones of previously created files, according to a recent study conducted by a joint team of researchers from the University of California, Irvine, the Czech Technical University, Microsoft Research, and Northeastern University.
Researchers looked at 4.5 million original (non-forked) GitHub projects, holding a total of 482 million different files. They found that only 85 million files were unique, or approximately 17.63% of all the analyzed files.

When an online game centered on violence toward Aboriginal Australians made headlines in 2016, Apple and Google quickly pulled the game from their app stores. But Indigenous researcher Chris Lawrence, an associate professor in the School of Software at the University of Technology Sydney, went a step further. Working with a team of researchers that includes UCI Chancellor's Professor of Informatics Paul Dourish, Lawrence started exploring how social networking technologies could enhance people's notions of Indigenous identity.
