***This screening is featruring a special Q&A with 2 of the 3 2019 Mallory Award Winners Mike Marolt & Steve Marolt in conjunction with their film Beyond Skiing Everest.
A crew of backcountry skiers set out to explore Colorado's lost ski areas in hopes to find adventure amongst the ruins. Instead, they discover the truth behind what made these areas close their doors for good and find what skiing used to be like before mega resorts and climate change wreaked havoc on independently owned ski areas. Through heart-wrenching interviews with former owners, ski patrol, and historians, Abandoned uncovers what it's like to be a skier in Colorado's backcountry and what it means to go from lost to found.
"Stirb Langsam" is a portrait about the young alpinist Michi Wohlleben. Michi's ambition is hard to control; he has accomplished one outstanding performance after another and is fully committed to mountaineering—until one day when his body reveals his limits after a banal training session. From one moment to the next, his life turns upside down and whether or not he will be able to climb again seems questionable. The film deals with the effects of the mountain as a drug on a young, motivated person.
This short documentary is an advocacy film for Utah's last remaining wild places. The Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance (SUWA) advocates for protecting over 9 million acres of federally managed public lands as Wilderness, areas of pristine natural beauty, unique and untrammeled ecosystems, and unfathomable cultural significance. This film walks the viewer through the diverse landscape and draws upon diverse voices to tell the story of why these lands are worth protecting, why corporate and political greed are risking the integrity of the landscape, and what can be done to ensure these public lands are protected for generations to come.
The story of lifelong friends progressing in high-altitude skiing, from their first American ski descent of an 8,000 meter peak to being inducted to the USA National Ski Hall of Fame. The film covers nearly 30 years and arguably the most extensive skiing resume in the 5,000-meter to 8,000-meter peaks, including a pioneering effort to the ultimate: climbing and skiing in the Winter Himalaya.


In its report released earlier this January, the Presidential Commission on Election Administration noted how an online registration tool developed by the Open Source Election Technology (OSET) Foundation that is being used by Virginia and groups like Rock the Vote "highlights the way that voter information can be entered by a user in one setting and, through a simple platform, seamlessly integrated with a state's registration list."
Now, ahead of the 2014 midterms and with an eye to 2016, OSET''s Trust the Vote Project is stepping up its efforts to expand that functionality and other election innovations across the country, at the same time that the Bipartisan Policy Center has taken up the task of more broadly implementing the commission's recommendations as a whole throughout the states.
As techPresident wrote at the time, the commission's report highlighted how it had identified technology and data problems at the root of the "long lines" that President Obama had directed the commission to address.
"We have been working on various pieces of what I call the overall ecosystem...of election administration," Gregory Miller, co-founder and chief development officer of OSET said in a recent interview. "We've been looking at the pieces that do not require federal certification since the federal certification model is so broken."
While OSET has also been involved in discussions about changing the certification model, the more immediate focus of the initiative, he said, has been improving the voter experience rather than ballot transactions.
The Virginia platform that is already in place aims to make the registration process as easy as buying a plane ticket, Miller said, and allows users to check if they are properly registered, look at their ballot in advance and know where their voting place so as not end up with a provisional ballot.
OSET has also been the technology provider behind the voter registration tools used by many third party groups including Rock the Vote, Voto Latino, the NAACP and the League of the Women Voters. Those groups have recently begun adopting a function of the service that lets the groups add a bar code to voter registration forms filled out through Rock the Vote that includes all the data a user has entered aside from their signature. When the form goes through a scanner "not only do they capture a signature for rapid reconciliation with DMV but they now get all that data instantly," Miller said. "That innovation alone has reduced by a factor of tenfold the time it takes to get voters registered."
Los Angeles County is interested in adopting the same platform as Virginia, Miller said, and OSET is also helping to integrate Rock the Vote capabilities with California's online voter registration system, adding that a dozen or more states could add that functionality after an August meeting of the National Association of State Election Directors. That better integration with state databases in California and other states could help "reduce that crunch when those boxes of registration forms darken the doorstep of the registrar with ten days to go," he said, citing stories of boxes "left sitting in hallways because they just ran out of time to process them by the deadline."
Trust the Vote is also working on other tools that could see early test runs during the 2014 midterms. One of them is a Ballot Design Studio that would let ballot designers lay out and print ballots on demand. Another is an electronic poll book that unlike the ones from existing vendors, costs less and uses open-source software with a better user experience and is in testing in Minnesota and possibly additional places. TrustTheVote envisions another tool called BusyBooth, developed by an OSET engineer from MIT, as a tool similar to travel time and traffic application Waze but "[mashed] up with election administration data to create an app that can allow a voter to know in advance the average time it takes in the line at the polling place," Miller said. By having voters check in and out, it is possible to determine information about "what is the optimal time for people to get to their polling place and get their ballot cast and avoid those long lines."
Another project under testing in Minnesota, Virginia, Los Angeles County and Travis County, Tex., is VoteStream, which aims to reimagine the election reporting process and deliver "not just faster election results but produce two new types of data that haven't been easily available to the public rather than 'party bosses'... performance and participation," he said. He suggested the data would help officials identify bottlenecks and hotspots as or before they occur and determine whether there were enough voting machines. That data, now generally obtained by the political parties, could include information on how many people voted, the demographics of cast ballots, how many were deemed provisional or were rejected, how many people were at a polling place at a given time or abandoned the voting process, and how many voters were voting by mail or from overseas. Access to that data could, for example, provide answers about whether ballot design is disenfranchising voters over 65 who might have visual problems, he suggested.
Currently that data is only available in raw and difficult PDF formats that require analysis by professional data scientists, he said. "Requesting it can be a nightmare, it's like a FOIA exercise," he said. With VoteStream, the idea is to make the data available and begin to do that analysis "mixing that data with other data about the area and [to] learn things about the demographics of an election [and] making it available through a stream with an API so it's available to anyone or they can write an application incorporating it," he said.
This cycle, VoteStream will only be receiving data as a client, like media outlets do, and displaying it. "We will be testing that faucet and our aspiration is that VoteStream will become the spigot of choice by 2016 because of the way it captures and expresses that data and the fact that it is an open source method...it is far far less expensive than the reporting mechanisms in place today," Miller said. VoteStream received a $50,000 Knight Prototype Fund grant last year and Miller said discussions are underway about Knight increasing that grant five-fold to help scale and implement the effort more broadly. Like other Trust the Vote projects, Miller said VoteStream would be attractive to election officials because it "does not require paying software licenses, but only integration costs and it runs on off-the shelf-hardware."
Among those expressing interest, especially in VoteStream, are New York City and New York state election officials, after they saw a presentation Miller gave at a Manhattan panel discussion in June, he said.
While Miller said he anticipated problems in 2014 relating to disenfranchisement, redistricting and managing the polling place experience including long lines, he predicted more difficult challenges in other areas in 2016 with the first election since 2000 without an incumbent, "when the question will shift from how do you process the line to how do you process the ballot."
"We will not have seen the stress and scrutiny and pressure applied to an outdated creaky bandaided system as we have since then," he said, echoing the alarm of the Presidential Election Commission, which could lead to renewed problems with recounts and ballot issues. The Help America Vote Act in 2002 was intended to replace lever machines and punch cards with computers, he said. "The very thing that was supposed to lead us way from the hanging chads did anything but....now 12 to 14 years later all those computers we thought were going to solve problems in 2002 are completely obsolete ... now they are going to suffer the very same stresses and pains and breakdowns that the lever machines and punch cards did in 2000. ...we could see a complete replay of what we saw in 2000 with an ultra-close election and every party boss and every army of lawyers fighting vociferously for every last ballot...that's going to have nothing to do with long lines."
In May, former White House CTO Aneesh Chopra and former Facebook General Counsel Chris Kelly joined the Strategic Advisory Board of OSET, which officially gained non-profit status last year after a lengthy IRS process, seven years after a group of technologists founded it in 2006 with a road-map to roll-out an open-source elections platform in 2016.
"This is critical democracy infrastructure, it's not something you can afford to privatize any longer," Miller said. While often there is a lot of buzz around expressing election results in visualizations and cool websites, much of OSET's work is about "working on the machinery of elections that has nothing to do with websites," he said.
"Beyond civic/voter engagement, if you don't fix the problems that are persistent in the polling place and the process of elections then all that civic engagement effort goes for nothing," Miller stated. "If ultimately getting all those people on board to go vote and all excited about the issues results in them going to a polling place experience that's so horrible that they'll never return than you've won the battle and lost the war...while millions are being poured into improving voter and civic engagement some money has to go into...providing insurance that when those eager, excited voters actually get to the polling place, the process of casting the ballot is as easy and convenient and engaging as the process of registering in the first place."
Those issues will also be on the mind of the Bipartisan Policy Center, which officially announced last week that it will lead an effort to help states implement the Presidential Commission's recommendations.
Co-chair of the Commission Ben Ginsberg, a former counsel to the Romney campaign, had first noted the update in House committee testimony at the end of July. Ginsberg and the other co-chair, Robert Bauer, a former counsel for the Obama campaign, said they and other commissioners also intended to help states draft and enact relevant legislation.
As part of realizing that goal, Tammy Patrick, a former member of the Commission and former Maricopa County election official, and Don Palmer, Secretary of the Virginia Board of Elections, are joining the center's Democracy Project to help lead the effort.
"The commissioners and others don't want the recommendations to just sit on the shelf but to get these recommendations into the states to move them along, " John Fortier, director of the Democracy Project, said in an interview with techPresident last week.
Fortier noted that the commission saw its charge as not to make recommendations about federal laws, but to focus on recommendations that states could put into practice.
Ahead of the 2014 midterms Fortier said the center's initiative would prioritize the commission's' recommendations on online voter registration, data sharing between states and modernization of the DMV voter registration process, work toward redrafting the voting certification process regarding voting machines to allow more off-the-shelf technology and work with counties to explore ways that election officials can measure and get information about lines at polling stations.

Wollaton Hall 3556
Wollaton Hall is now the Nottingham Natural History Museum and the attached landscape park is a public park. There are also formal gardens close to the hall. The site is owned by Nottingham City Council which is restoring the site. The site is designated under the Reservoirs Act.
The park was enclosed for deer and wild white cattle between 1492 and 1510. A large number of garden and park buildings were built in the latter half of the 18th and early years of the 19th century, and considerable expense was lavished on improvements to the park. The formal gardens were created in the 19th century. The 11th Lord Middleton sold the estate to the Corporation of Nottingham in 1924-25. Part of the estate was sold off for housing development, whilst the rest was split between a public park and a golf course. The public park was opened in 1926.
The site is open daily, except for during the Christmas break. The park opens at 8 am during the week and 9 am at weekends.
Wollaton Hall is built on a hill, the ground sloping down steeply to the north with a more gradual slope to the west and with the gentlest slopes to the south and east.
The following is from the Register of Parks and Gardens of Special Historic Interest. For the most up-to-date Register entry, please visit the The National Heritage List for England (NHLE):

An early 16th-century deer park, developed into a landscape park in the late 18th century. In the centre, the 16th-century Hall is set within formal gardens and pleasure grounds of the 16th, 17th, 18th and 19th centuries. The site has been a public park since 1926.
LOCATION, AREA, BOUNDARIES, LANDFORM, SETTING
Wollaton Hall and its surrounding park, comprising 203ha, is located on the west side of the City of Nottingham. The northern boundary of the site in part follows Wollaton Road, with the Derby Road (A52) following part of the southern boundary. The western boundary is represented by the park wall beyond which are houses and their back gardens running along Parkside. The eastern boundary abuts housing built after 1926 on land which was formerly within the park.
Wollaton Hall is built on a hill, the ground sloping down steeply to the north with a more gradual slope to the west and with the gentlest slopes to the south and east. The other notable landform is Arbour Hill to the south-east.
The park is now enclosed largely by housing development, with the University of Nottingham campus to the south of Derby Road.
ENTRANCES AND APPROACHES
The two main park gates lie to the north of the Hall adjacent to lodges, Lodge No.1 and Lodge No.2, on Wollaton Road. From each leads a straight drive, the two drives being parallel and the northern section of that from Lodge No.1 following a row of oaks planted in the late C18. The approach from the east, from the two sets of formal gateways (erected in 1926, listed grade II) which stand on Middleton Boulevard, and along the eastern half of Lime Tree Avenue, now serves a golf club. These are the main historic entrances with a fourth, a pedestrian gate, 700m south-east of the Hall on Derby Road at the crenellated, Gothick-style Beeston Lodge (Jeffry Wyatt, 1823, listed grade II). From the latter a footpath leads west to the lake before turning north to reach a C20 gate into the pleasure grounds; formerly this approach crossed the present golf course. There are an additional five gated entrances to the park, all inserted since 1926.
The main approach to the Hall prior to 1926 was that to the east, from Nottingham Lodge (now Lenton Lodge), built in 1823 by Jeffry Wyatt, which stands on the far side of the inner ring road (outside the present park boundary). Before the construction of Nottingham Lodge, the main entrance appears to have been from the south-east near Beeston Lodge.
PRINCIPAL BUILDING
Wollaton Hall (listed grade I), built of Ancaster stone, is made up of a central hall of three storeys, topped by a prospect room with three-storey corner towers. It was built for Sir Francis Willoughby by Robert Smythson (1535-1614). An inscription on the exterior of the Hall translates as 'Behold this house of Sir Francis Willoughby built with rare art and bequeathed to Willoughbys. Begun in 1580 and finished 1588' (CL 1900). The Hall was altered in the late C17 by Sir Francis Willoughby, his brother Thomas, Baron Middleton, and his sister Cassandra. The 6th Lord Middleton in the early C19 commissioned from Jeffry Wyatt many alterations including a new servants' wing in 1823, those to the exterior of the Hall, however, being minor.
The stables and service range (listed grade II) stand 100m to the west of the Hall. The formal classical quadrangle was built in 1743, this being extended with service buildings, stabling and pavilions in 1774, and extended again in 1829 with an indoor Riding School. The buildings are mainly red brick with an ashlar sandstone formal south facade, with portico. They were extended in 1972-74 with steel and glass buildings to house machinery for the Industrial Museum which first opened in 1970. The stables also contain a shop, offices, flat and a gallery (opened 1996).
GARDENS AND PLEASURE GARDENS
The pleasure grounds are set within a brick ha-ha dating from 1788, which wraps round the Hall to the south and east. From the south front of the Hall steps lead onto a terrace comprising a lawn set around a circular pond, with a terrace walk and brick retaining wall to the south-east surmounted by a long balustrade (listed grade II). Balusters from the C17 balustrade are mixed with C19 and C20 replacements. The circular pond is designed with an integral lead fountain and is illustrated in views of the garden dating from the end of the C17/early C18 (Jan Siberechts 1695, Kip and Knyff 1707). The terraced brick retaining wall is a late C18 reconstruction of the C17 wall, also shown in late C17/early C18 illustrations, which was itself on the line of the late C16 Smythson wall. Pairs of Mannerist-style statues are set on the lawn on either side of the central path. These, fibreglass replicas of the original stone statues, now housed within the Camellia House, represent the Roman gods Neptune, Flora, Venus with Cupid, and Bacchus, and appear to be illustrated in the Siberechts paintings.
Below the top terrace is the lower terrace comprising lawns with a large grove of cedars, Cedar of Lebanon being the first planted group, supplemented in the mid C19 with Atlantic cedar. Most of the other exotic trees here have been added since 1925. To the south-west is the Camellia House (probably designed by Wyatt; listed grade II*) constructed in 1823. This is a pre-fabricated cast-iron structure (reputedly the first ever cast-iron glasshouse) with copper glazing bars and unique heating system designed by Harrison of Derby, which takes rainwater from the fluted cast-iron supporting columns which serve the piped heating system. Bronze floor vents provide an humidifying effect. To the rear of the Camellia House is its boiler house. To the south of the Camellia House are flower beds and shrubs planted much as illustrated in County Life photographs of 1900. East of the Cedar Grove is a circular sensory garden, laid out in 1994, which is probably on the site of the Rosary also illustrated in Country Life.
The brick ha-ha surrounds the pleasure garden on three sides (north-east, south-east and south-west). At the centre of the south-east side, on axis with the formal garden, is a projecting semi-circular bastion. A bridge crosses the ha-ha from a door in the Doric Temple (listed grade II*), also known as the French Hovel, which stands at the edge of the pleasure grounds, 200m south-east of the Hall. The front of the Temple has an open loggia with Doric columns and was designed to display eight oval stone panels. The main construction of the building dates from c 1800 although it contains recycled elements from other sources: the columns and pilasters may be part of the late C17 Orangery and the stone wall plaques, incorporating themes from classical mythology, may be from an earlier C17 building.
The grounds to the east of the Hall are mainly laid to lawn with a pronounced embankment leading up to the east elevation which contains a former doorway. A large quantity of soil was removed from this area when the ha-ha was constructed and the ground was levelled to create the platform around the Hall to the north, south and east. The C17 illustrations show a large change in level between the east and south side of the Hall.
On the north front of the Hall an oval drive replaces the C17 walled enclosure. A single-storey stone gazebo (c 1800, listed grade II) with a lead coped parapet is located 50m north of the Hall. This appears to have been augmented, c 1823, with a water tank, hidden by a raised parapet, to provide a water supply for the water trough and lion's head fountain also of c 1823, which are situated in the retaining wall to the west. East of the gazebo is an early C19 icehouse (1826, listed grade II).
The raised terrace to the south of the Hall with central pond, roughly corresponds to the design shown in the 'platt' or plan of the Hall and garden by Robert Smythson (Girouard 1983). John Smythson in a design dated 1618, for Sir Percival Willoughby, for the 'Newe Orchard', shows the terrace to the south of the Hall already present and a proposed raised mount copying the plan of the house, planted with box, below. This was constructed, for Cassandra Willoughby describes its removal in her diaries of the late C17. From 1687 into the early C18, Sir Francis, Thomas and Cassandra Willoughby made many improvements to the house and garden. The gardens to the north-east side of the house were extended as a D-shaped bowling green edged by a brick wall and railings within which were several curved terraces with rows of lime trees (Siberechts paintings of the 1690s). The outline of the bowling green and the remnants of a row of lime trees survive outside the present line of the ha-ha. Cassandra referred to reforming the gardens with the advice of Mr Pratt, formerly of the Chelsea Physic Garden (qv) (Chandos 1911). Jan Siberechts, commissioned by Sir Thomas Willoughby, painted three versions of Wollaton Hall in 1695, 1697 and c 1697, two of which were similar bird's eye views but showing slight differences. These illustrate the terrace and central fountain, parterres to the east with a brick walled orangery, bowling green, and two-storey gazebo. In one view the lower terrace is laid out with parterres, on the other, orchards. In 1788 the formal bowling green and wall were levelled and replaced by the present haha separating the Hall from the park. The garden was subsequently planted with the grove of Cedar of Lebanon and embellished with structures including the Doric temple and a summerhouse with grotto, since demolished. By 1856, the terrace was described as 'a most extensive lawn adorned with statues, fountains and gold and silver fish' (Fyfe) offering picturesque and extensive views. The area of the terrace to the north-east was then described as a wood of fine beeches called the 'Wilderness', and the area to the south-west as the Rosary.
Wollaton Hall is set on a hill in the centre of the wall-enclosed park. Sir Henry Willoughby had enclosed the park between 1492 and 1510 with a pale, but the wall (described by Daniel Defoe in his Tour Through England and Wales, 1724) was not built until 1720. The park contains a number of tree-lined avenues, most of those focused on the Hall having been laid out in the late C17 as illustrated in the Siberechts paintings of the 1690's and the Kip and Knyff engraving in Britannia Illustrata of 1707. To the north are two major avenues, one of sweet chestnut and oak planted in the C17 in two double rows, lined on the north front of the Hall, the other a single avenue of oaks planted in the late C18 near the walled Nursery garden. To the north-east is a double avenue of oaks, Digby Avenue, planted in 1838-9. To the west of the Hall are field enclosures, separated from Thompson's Wood by an avenue of sweet chestnut, originally a double avenue dating from the C17. To the east of the Hall is a double lime avenue, Lime Tree Avenue, first planted c 1700. This bisects the golf course, dating from the 1920s, which occupies the park to the south and east of the Hall. An oak avenue planted in the late C20 lies on the southern boundary of the course. To the south of the Hall is a single avenue of limes dating from c 1700. South-west of the Hall is a Horse Chestnut avenue planted in 1980 and to the west, between Parkside Road and the lake, is a second late C20 oak avenue.
The park contains a number of plantations. These include Thompson's Wood to the west and south-west of the Hall, dating principally from the late C18, of beech, sweet chestnut, oak and lime with an understorey of yew and rhododendron; and Arbour Hill and Deer Barn copse to the south-east. Arbour Hill, originating in the C16, was replanted in the mid C19 with Scots pine, larch and wellingtonia underplanted with rhododendron. The park was planted during the latter part of the C18 with many informal groups of trees, including, in 1786, some 11,300 oaks. During the early-mid C19 these were supplemented with circlular and oval copses of contrasting broad-leaved and coniferous plantings. The best surviving examples of these are to the north of the Hall, one being a wellingtonia grove framed by a ring of horse chestnut. The park also contains several individual wellingtonias.
400m to the south of the Hall lies a 18ha roughly triangular lake. This was created between 1774 and 1785 on the site of an earlier lake shown in C17 illustrations. It is retained by a dam and drainage ditch 800m long. The brick boathouse (listed grade II) by the southern shore was designed to look like a classical bridge from the far side of the lake but this effect is no longer apparent the water level having dropped. As part of the late C18/early C19 improvements, the land between the west side of the Hall and the lake was kept as an open broad sweep in order to maintain views with the stable block in the foreground. The view from the lake of the stable block is shown in a watercolour by P M La Cave dated 1788.
The c 1.7ha kitchen garden (walls listed grade II) is set against the north wall of the park beside the north gate and is now (1999) derelict. Built in 1783, with three flue-lined walls, additions were made in the C19 and C20. The late C18 Gothick glasshouse has been demolished but west of the garden is the gardener's cottage (late C18, listed grade II) which is now (1990s) a private house. West of the cottage is a barn and attached cartshed (listed grade II) which is now (1999) a restaurant and store.

The early 14th-century manors of Wollaton and Cossall were acquired by judicious marriages by the Willoughby family and the park was enclosed for deer and wild white cattle between 1492 and 1510. The Willoughbys, who descended from a successful Nottinghamshire merchant Ralph Bugge (died ?1240) had made their main residence at Middleton, Warwickshire but when Henry Willoughby (around 1451-1528) exploited the coal reserves at Wollaton, he made what is now Wollaton Old Hall, near the church in Wollaton village, his chief residence.
Henry's great grandson Francis Willoughby (1547-96) became heir to the estates at the age of twelve in 1559 when his brother, Thomas, died. He commissioned Robert Smythson as his builder and 'architector' (Pevsner and Williamson 1979) to build Wollaton Hall. Built between 1580 and 1588, it is considered to be the most important Elizabethan house in Nottinghamshire and one of the most important in England (Pevsner and Williamson 1979). The Hall was passed to Francis Willoughby's daughter Bridget who married her cousin Percival Willoughby (died 1643), but fell into disuse until their grandson, Sir Francis (1648-88) created Baronet in 1677, inherited aged nineteen and took his brother, Thomas (died 1742) and sister, Cassandra (1670-1735) to live there. Sir Thomas succeeded in 1688 and was made the first Baron Middleton in 1712. Alterations were made to the Hall in this period and the gardens were greatly enlarged and avenues planted across the park. In 1720 a park wall was built with the effect of reducing the impact of the long avenues, although these were not removed.
A large number of garden and park buildings were built in the latter half of the 18th and early years of the 19th century, by the 5th and 6th Lords Middleton, and considerable expense was lavished on improvements to the park. The architect Jeffry Wyatt (later Wyattville) was called in by the 6th Lord Middleton in three periods, 1801-05, 1823, and again in 1832. His work involved both the renovation and extension of the Hall and the design of garden and park buildings.
During the early years of the Napoleonic wars, the 6th Lord Middleton had a pre-occupation with defending his property and supported a militia of his own Volunteers. Building work of around this time was typically defensive in design. Nottingham Lodge, for example, built in 1823, had internal security features and a fire proof construction. In 1831 there were riots in Nottingham during the progress of the Reform Bill and various local landed estates, including among them Wollaton, were attacked by rioters. This appears to have added to the 6th Lord Middleton's fears and he commissioned the construction of Beeston Lodge, fully fireproof and secure, in 1832.
After the 6th Lord Middleton's death in 1835, the estate was handed down to Digby, 7th Lord Middleton, who planted additional avenues of oak and lime. After his death in 1856, the family did not return to the estate and, in 1867, it was leased to Henry Ackroyd Esq. Extensive works were nevertheless carried out within and around the walled Nursery garden with the construction of plant houses including a Musa house, Pine house, Melon house, Cucumber houses and vineries. The Inventory produced for the lease to Henry Ackroyd showed a prolific number of exotic plants being grown.
The 11th Lord Middleton (died 1970), due to double death duties incurred by the deaths of his father and uncle after the First World War, sold the estate to the Corporation of Nottingham in 1924-25. The 801 acre (around 334 hectare) estate was made up of 744 acres (310 hectares) of the Hall and Park and 57 acres (around 24 hectares) of garden allotments. The Corporation sold off 274 acres (around 114 hectares) for housing development, the remainder being set aside as a public park with 139 acres (around 58 hectares) for use as a golf course. From 1940 for almost fifteen years the northern area of the park was used for military purposes, first to accommodate US troops, then, from 1945 onwards, German Prisoners of War.
The site remains in local authority ownership.

Neighbours in peace – or pieces?
Posted on August 9, 2009 by beenasarwar
My monthly column for Hardnews, India, August 2009 – http://www.hardnewsmedia.com/2009/07/3122. Also published in The News on Sunday, August 9, 2009
Karachi, July 26 2009
Personal Political
The auditorium was full of women from far-flung, poor localities of Karachi. One of them plonked herself next to me in the second row along with her daughters, a toddler and a six-year old. A gigantic banner featuring a photo of the late activist Nirmala Deshpande formed the backdrop to an array of speakers from India and Pakistan seated behind a long table on the platform. 'PROMOTING PEACE IN SOUTH ASIA AND REMEMBERING NIRMALA DIDI DESHPANDE' it read.
Mumtaz, the young Pahstun mother next to me, had studied up till the eighth grade, unlike most of the other women present. The toddler nuzzled against her to breastfeed from time to time.
The speakers included prominent Urdu writer Zahida Hina, peace activist and educationist from Lahore Syed Diep, parliamentarians from the PPP and MQM and Indian activist Sandeep Pandey from Lucknow, journalist Jatin Desai from Mumbai, and Kavita Srivastava of the Peoples Union of Civil Liberties (PUCL) from Jaipur. Two other Indians weren't given 'clearance' from Islamabad in time for the visit, meant to further the aims of a joint signature campaign for peace launched earlier this year.
Mumtaz and the other women, mostly wives of daily wage labourers, had been brought there by various 'bajis', women activists working in their areas. "I don't understand everything they're saying," Mumtaz told me, "But I know they are talking about the need for peace between India and Pakistan. That is what we all want."
Her immediate concern was to feed her family. "Maybe if these two countries stop fighting, our lot will improve," she said optimistically.
"Let the people meet, all other matters will sort out," a cyclist told Sandeep Pandey and other peace marchers who went from Delhi to Multan in 2005, demanding that the governments of India and Pakistan resolve all matters of dispute through dialogue.
Such basic wisdom is at odds with the justifications for continued animosity presented by 'intellectuals' on either side of the border. "India/Pakistan wants to destroy us"; "Stop appeasing India/Pakistan"; "There is no point in talking to them".
If we listen to this babble of voices whose sole aim seems to be to present their own country's case as better than the other's, we'll never get anywhere. There is an old saying in our part of the world, 'Taali donoN haathoN se bajti hai' – it takes two hands to clap.
Let's stop these blame games and accept that there are problems on either side – of varying degrees and natures, and try and understand the complexities of the problems.
Those with access to the Internet have increased the potential for such understanding. But because we're not used to talking to each other, the un-moderated exchanges posted on blogs are often crass and offensive. Direct interaction involving basic civility and an open mind is more meaningful.
Some time back, a Mumbaikar emailed saying, "Frankly, with Pakistan itself is in such a mess (Lal Masjid, Swat valley, Taliban, regular suicide attacks and of course the numerous Muslim organisations ranting about Jehad), do you really feel safe in your own country? And the most amusing thing is when Pakistan tells that India is its enemy number one. Wait for a few more years, am sure the Taliban will take over Pakistan. And what pains us, is what did we do to Pakistan. Kargil was Musharaf's misadventure."
I replied, yes, Pakistan is in a mess, due largely to the continual disruption of the political process, with no democratically elected government being allowed to complete its terms. "This is the biggest difference between India and us, and what I most envy about your country".
Still, women do get around here too, carry on with their work and their lives. And at least elements within Pakistan's establishment no longer consider India as enemy number one.
Kargil was indeed Musharraf's misadventure. Many of us spoke out against it (were labelled as Indian agents). Pakistan's military must be accountable and answerable to elected civilian governments. This will only happen if the political process is allowed to continue.
Rocky as politics in Pakistan currently are, with a floundering democratic process, it is only more democracy on a sustained and continuous level that will in the long run yield positive results.

Historically and culturally, to the muslims peace implies either total annihilation of the adversary, or extracting substantial concession.
After years of hostility, three wars, and Kargil treachery, do the Pakistani peace advocates hope for peace through extracting concessions on Kashmir ?
They need to realize that, peace through concessions is not acceptable to India. There is no easy face saving exit route for the Pakistani Army and the ISI.
India is in no rush to buy peace with Pakistan.
The only acceptable way to peace is through acceptance of the reality on ground, and respect for status quo.

Hi Beena
Read your piece "Neighbours in peace — or pieces?" in The News.
Liked it .
I flip through Pakistani News papers on a regular basis and find them more balanced and rational in comparison to Indian Newspapers (not to talk about the Indian TV News Channels)
I must say that despite the snail paced democratic process in Pakistan, your media is adhering to liberal, rational and outward looking approach to Indo-Pak relationship.
Where as Indian media is full of anti Pakistan jingoism with irrational, loud, infantile and intulectually bankrupt analysis (barring a few exceptions of course)
This is the need of the time that both the countries change their age old approach towards each other . We are organically connected.. whether we like it or not.
Dialogue should never be stopped and PEOPLE TO PEOPLE contact should be encouraged. There can not be any other solution to our bilateral problems.

Dear Beena,
Your articles are always thought provoking. This particular one on Neighbours in Peace – Or Pieces, is extremely timely. For South Asia we have to make a difference. These two neighbours must sit together and settle their disputes and also take the dialogue forward. There is no other option. This is the only sensible option.
We must try our best to change the mind set of the archconservatives in both countries and you are trying to do that. All opinion makers have to work for this. The old mindset of one hating the other will never work in the modern world. We have to work for a common market and the neighbours moving forward together.

Dear Beenaji
Hope all well at your end…
We are releasing film Gam Hava, made by MS Sathyu in 1973, which went to Oscar in 1974, and won National Award in the same year on the National Integration.
This film is best example of Human rights and National Integration.
We are re-releasing the film soon
How can we associate?

…I love books, and as a writer and as a human being, I think stories are really important. I don't think it matters what you read, but that you are open to stories, other kinds of lives and ideas, whether those are fiction or factual.
I really enjoyed this book. I loved the location, McClane really evoked a sense of place, and invests her characters with spark and individuality. It's a pleasure to read this book and immerse yourself in the humour and the mystery, as well as the will-they-won't-they romance.

you don't clarify that "ns" is that storage space. Also: what is "s"?
Hello golang-dev@googlegroups.com, bradfitz@golang.org, daniel.morsing@gmail.com (cc: golang-dev@googlegroups.com), Please take another look.
I'm not sure how to do what you say, which could be interesting indeed.
Maybe make convas do the walkexpr itself? That would be more intrusive.

TOFU MOM . . . and gravy!: Have I Mentioned Vida Vegan Con?
Have I Mentioned Vida Vegan Con?
The other day, while wandering through the Farmer's Market with a friend, I happened to mention "The Vegan Bloggers Conference in Portland" and she said "What?" Never heard of it."
**GASP** It's Vida Vegan Con. You haven't heard? Say what? How can that be? I've neglected to spread the word?
See, I've been raving about this fabulous and exciting event to (I thought) EVERYONE, everywhere; But suddenly I had this "DUH" moment.
I realize I've neglected the obvious! I haven't actually raved about the Vegan Bloggers Conference here, ON MY VEGAN BLOG! Oh snap!
Vida Vegan Con is a Vegan Blogger's Conference being held this coming August 26 - 28, 2011.
Yes. A conference. Just for Vegan Bloggers!
And most exciting, it's in my next-door-neighbor and most favorite city ever - PORTLAND, Oregon. This means... I could maybe, possibly actually go!! Without having to take a bunch of time off work, buy an airplane ticket, arrange lodging, wander around lost in a strange city, all of that.
It'll be a great opportu nity for bloggers like me (and others that do this on a WAY huger scale than I do) to attend and participate in workshops, discussion panels, speakers, special events, vegan food, and more. Like the website says: "This conference will celebrate, explore, and fine-tune the practice—and ever-growing community of vegan bloggers."
There's a huge list of awesome speakers and presenters, including Isa Chandra Moskowitz, author of The Post Punk Kitchen, Vegan Brunch, Veganomicon, Vegan with a Vengeance, etc), Author Bryanna Clark Grogan, (Notes from a Vegan Feast Kitchen/21st Century Table), the fabulous Jess Scone (Get Sconed! & StumptownVegans.com), Janessa from Epicurious Vegan... OK, there's hundreds, or something, just go HERE for the whole list!!
More awesomeness, read the interview here in T.O.F.U. Magazine!!
And even better? (Yes, it gets better!) They're using the conference to raise money for animal sanctuaries including Pigs Peace here in Washington, a sanctuary very near and dear to my heart!
(*SIGH*) I am so excited for this event, can you tell?
The only teensy-tiny roadblock for me at the moment is the cost of registration - which I am saving my pennies for (along with all those expenses of 'life' like broken washers, car repair, kid's emergency-room visits, and so on). So... I'm even considering my very own fundraising, maybe a "Send-me-to-VeganCon" Bake Sale, heh. You never know, where there's a will, there's ALWAYS a way!! Stay tuned.
The point is, if you hear me raving about this exciting conference in the future, you'll now know what I'm talking about.
You have to go! I'm going!!!!

For those that have been following news and rumours in Point Cook, you would be across the proposal to develop the land on Hackett's lane, into a high and mixed residential development. This development is referred to a the Point Cook West Precinct Structure Plan (PCW PSP). This area includes two ovals and 6-12 tennis courts. It also has space for possibly two convenience stores and roads to future bridges (that there is no funding commitment to build within the next 15 years). They conservatively expect over 5,000 people into this area. To read the full plan check out the Point Cook West Precinct Structure Plan – Draft For Consultation (December 2011).
Given that there is really nothing to ensure facilities are in place, not to mention the impact on our roads, I oppose this. I really oppose this.
Imagine not just the roads, but the extra pressures on our schools, childcare, internet, doctors, etc. BUT I do not oppose the development. My caveat – it is done with care of community and planned with sustainable solutions for Point Cook as a whole.
There is limited recreational facilities within Point Cook. Sure we have our shopping centres, gyms, café's and restaurants, but we do not have a single public space that we can meander to and enjoy a swim or game of indoor sports. Yes we do have school halls around Point Cook and parks too, but the access to these facilities is limited.
We do have the Sanctuary Lakes golf course, as well as private pools and sports ovals, but these are private, not community facilities and do not cater to other sports. Finally we are presented with an opportunity to realistically ask for a space that can cater to other pursuits.
The Growth Areas Authority (GAA) is seeking community input into the development of the land at Hacketts Road. This is our chance to say as a community, and as individuals, our views on the subject.
Personally, I am going to raise the need for a community recreation hub, for sports not covered by the Point Cook Road Reserve. I believe it should take on the form of a 9 hole golf course, with a community leisure facility housing a swimming pool and indoor sports centre. Why this combination, well here goes.
Mixed facilities provide greater economic returns for the centre. The facility will need to be viable, and to help ensure that a range of activities will offer more chances to get funds in. Further, each individual component that makes up the facility should be aimed at different needs within the community, drawing together a range of groups to make the centre more viable as a whole. To demonstrate the power of such a facility, there is the Kew Recreation Centre, which includes: fully equipped Health Club/Gymnasium, Group Fitness Studio, Cycling Studio, Indoor Heated Pool, Spa, Saun, and other services.
Why have I chosen this mix of facilities?
There is no community swimming pool in Point Cook. This has been raised as a need a number of times. Read the Submission for the Revision of Wyndham Aquatic Strategy developed by PCAG for more details regarding why Point Cook needs a multi-purpose community recreation hub that includes a swimming pool.
Similar to the pool facilities there is no sports stadium within Point Cook, well apart from the halls at schools. This could take on the form of indoor basketball/netball courts that also cater for other indoor activities. Care would need to be taken to ensure this did not compete with private enterprises in the area (who have taken the risk to set up shop here).
Anecdotally, basketball is keenly supported amongst the youth – both boys and girls. I remember following Charlotte Hornets when I was a kid. Netball continues to be the number one sport played by girls in Australia. Despite this and the need identified for netball courts in the Point Cook Road Reserve (Saltwater Reserve) development, there is none planned in phase one of this development. Multi-purpose courts allow for other minority sports also such as badminton, volleyball, handball and table tennis (to name a few), whilst also providing an indoor training venue for some of the outdoor sports already catered for such as indoor football.
A short golf course provides an affordable entry into the sport. For those in the area interested in this sport the only local golf range is Sanctuary Lakes, which may be unaffordable for many enthusiasts (including teenagers or elderly). These grounds can also be used to protect native habitat and provide a serine natural beauty to the western region of Point Cook. Imagine a mini-sanctuary lakes (without the water) on the other side of Point Cook. With the trees and open spaces created, it would enhance the overall look of the area.
By creating a locally owned golf course, we have the capacity to use this space for public events. The Green Keeper would have nightmares over such an idea, but if managed successfully, we could have Carols by Candlelight catering to the thousands. We could use the space to have a mid-year festival to bring the people together and form a cohesive community. Let's not forget that we are a young suburb and there is a need to define its culture and identity. These festivals would create the hub.
To differentiate this course from others in the region, the design could be developed with Speed Golf in mind. Speed Golf (or Extreme Golf) per Wikipedia "is a sport started in California in 1979 by American runner Steve Scott and which involves completing a golf course in the lowest combination of strokes and time. The sport is played in North America, Europe and Japan, and major tournaments are telecast by channels such as ESPN and The Golf Channel." We could market this on the world stage, potentially bringing investment dollars into the region and tourism dollars when awareness of the unique in Melbourne experience is raised. We need to ensure that Point Cook is capable of generating revenue for itself, that's how jobs are made. I suspect this kind of course would be more durable, so damage from a festival on its greens would be minimal.
Why do I object to more AFL ovals and tennis courts?
The proposal for Point Cook West as it stands now, lists the space for 6-12 tennis courts and two AFL ovals. Given the development of the facility on Point Cook Road, why is there a need for these? Surely the ovals and courts being built now, in addition to what already exists, need to be used to make them sustainable. With more tennis courts in the area, I would be concerned about the risk of one or the other tennis courts already in the area becoming economically unviable.
Now I am not against any sports being catered for, far from it, but I am questioning why more of the same when so many other recreational opportunities are overlooked, limiting choice? I am sure that die hard footy and tennis enthusiasts would argue that although catered for there is still not enough. At least they have something! Surely this development is the ideal opportunity to provide facilities for those sports and active recreational pursuits not currently catered for at all. I would've thought that would be a higher priority?
Now if the space of land is deemed too small for a 9 hole course and recreation facility, then perhaps the GAA could allow for space for just the community leisure facility comprising of a swimming pool and indoor/outdoor multi-purpose courts. In light of the facilities being built around Point Cook already, the ovals in the proposal could be considered excessive and could easily be reviewed for use as mentioned above.
The PCW PSP provides the suburb an opportunity, I just hope that those in Government and in the GAA undertaking this process consider the needs of the community and listen to us. If you want to be heard, please write your letter to the GAA and raise the matters you are concerned about. Send these letters to the Council and Politian's too. For further details on how to lodge your feedback on this plan take a look at A Guide To Writing A Letter In Response To The Proposed Point Cook West Precinct Structure Plan. We only get one shot at this. Once the decision is made and land sold up it will be too late.
Do you think that Point Cook needs a community leisure hub? What do you think of my proposed mix of facilities? If you disagree, please indicate your preferred mix and the reasons why in the comments below.
Last week we posted details of the Point Cook West Precinct Structure Plan Information Session that was scheduled for 31 January and then later cancelled due to too much interest. The Growth Areas Authority (GAA) still came to PCCLC on 31 January out of respect for those that may not have heard of the late cancellation and provided information to those people. Another session was also held on 1 February.
If there is a demand they may also arrange weekend meetings. You will need to make a booking for these sessions with the GAA directly via Simon.Cotterill@gaa.vic.gov.au or phone 9651 9635 to book an appointment. If you can't make the sessions they are happy to discuss over the phone.
PCAG have developed a PCAG GAA PCW PSP Flyer to provide more details for residents. PCAG is encouraging residents to download this flyer and share it with other local residents. We are currently getting 500 of these flyers printed for letterbox drops and as posters. Those residents willing to assist with additional printing and/or participate in a letterbox drop to assist in distributing this information over the next week, should email info@pcag.org.au with their name and phone number and you will be contacted with further information on how to get involved.
Please also note that PCAG is encouraging all residents to write to the GAA directly to express any concerns you may have regarding this development. For more information on how to do this, please check out this guide on how to write a letter in response to the proposed PCW PSP.
When the going gets tough, the tough put fingers to keyboards and get writing!
In light of the recent release of the proposed PCW PSP by the Growth Areas Authority (GAA) many concerned Point Cook residents want to write to provide feedback how this development would negatively impact them in hope that their concerns are taken on board and that the plan is adjusted accordingly. This is a great idea and one that the PCAG encourages. However, this may seem a daunting task and may leave some residents wondering, "where do I start?". Well I hear your pleas and as someone that has just gone through this process myself and I am here to help by sharing the simple steps that I undertook when writing my letter.
Firstly, plan to send a letter by snail mail as Government Departments are obliged to answer all correspondence received in this way. If you like, you can send an electronic copy of your snail mail letter to the recipient's email address just to be sure.
Be sure to cc the Minister for Planning as a minimum, as he is whom the GAA report to. Whoever you cc, just make sure that you state at the bottom of your completed letter who you have sent copies to so that the addressee is aware.
If you feel like tailoring specific letters to each of these parties rather than cc'ing them in on the GAA letter, then this is an excellent (but far more time consuming) approach. Just make sure you write the GAA letter first to ensure your feedback is included in this consultation process. You can then modify your GAA letter as appropriate for each of the individuals you are writing to. If you take this approach, be sure to advise them why you are writing to them directly. That may include something like you are appealing for them to step in and review the community's concerns for the inappropriate and unsustainable nature of the development.
Include a topic in bold at the top of your letter, such as "Concerns with the PCW PSP" or "Opposition to the PCW PSP" to identify the issue you are addressing in the content of your letter.
It is hard to think where to start so initially introduce yourself and how long you've been a resident of Point Cook. Then open with the reason you are writing is to outline concerns you have with the PCW PSP.
How do I explain my concerns?
Not surprising, most residents who have discussed this topic are raising similar issues. I am not going to tell you what to write, as ultimately what you write has to come from your own feelings and thoughts on the development. What you have to do is to write an individual letter outlining how the development would impact you and your family's quality of life in Point Cook. Individual and personalised letters (and many of them) have far greater impact over a pro-forma letter simply copied over and over and signed by multiple people.
The buzz word at the moment is "sustainability" – Governments are trying to create sustainable living options in sustainable communities. Ask yourself, how "sustainable" do you think the GAA's PCW PSP is? Does it improve our community? Would you be proud to show your children the end result?
To keep it manageable choose four topics and create topic headings. Underneath write a paragraph or two on how this topic affects you or your family or how it will impact your quality of life and happiness in Point Cook. Be as detailed as you can about what your concerns are, make it personal and real. Use phrases like "This is unsustainable because…." or "This will be a problem for my community because…." or "this kind of development is out of keeping with the style and aesthetic of Point Cook", etc.
Don't feel restricted by these topics, if there is something else that concerns you, then be sure to raise it and provide details. It is important that all concerns within the community are provided to the GAA for consideration as part of this consultation process.
End your letter by explaining that you have cc'd in the Minister for Planning, etc and that you are appealing for them to step in and review the community's concerns for the inappropriate and unsustainable nature of the development. You may wish to conclude by including something like the fact that Point Cook is a vibrant community, now alive with community spirit and that we will not see our suburb destroyed just as it is about to get on its feet and make its mark as a model Western suburb. Thank all for taking the time to understand your concerns and state that you look forward to some good outcomes for all residents of Point Cook both current and future.
Sign your name and supply your name, address, email and contact phone number. Don't forget to note underneath which other parties you have cc'd (sent a copy to).
When do I have to send by?
Re-read what you have written and correct any mistakes (you may wish to get someone else to read over it and give you some feedback). Make sufficient copies to be able to send to the addressee, all of the cc recipients and to keep a copy for your own records. Be sure you post your letter with sufficient time so that it arrives prior to the GAA deadline of 16 February 2012. Be sure to send a copy via email to all of the recipients as well to be sure that it is received. Feel free to email info@pcag.org.au a copy of your letter also so that we have a better understanding of the communities concerns.
Have you written your letters yet? If so, do you have any other advice that you wish to share with Point Cook residents? Please share this information in the comments below.
UPDATE (3pm: 25 Jan): The GAA PCWP information session planned for Tuesday 31 January has been postponed. No alternative date has been set as yet. PCAG will be insisting that community consultation is still undertaken and advise of further details once known. PCAG encourages you in the meantime to read the GAA documentation on the Wyndham C163 – Point Cook West Precinct Structure Plan – PSP39.1 and submit your feedback to the GAA by their deadline of Thursday 16 February, 2012.
After a review of these documents, the Point Cook Action Group (PCAG) believes that this plan will put significant pressure on the suburb and could lead to a decrease in the standard of living and devaluation of house prices for the suburb of Point Cook.

Pilot Study of a Test for Osteosarcoma in Irish Wolfhounds is Open to Enrollment
Bone cancer (osteosarcoma) is the number one killer of Irish Wolfhounds and despite all efforts the incidence has not decreased in over 40 years. It is unlikely that cancer will ever be completely eliminated but it may be possible to decrease its incidence, and the morbidity associated with this condition. It has been shown that a blood test can detect whether microscopic osteosarcoma remains in dogs after treatment. It is possible that the same test could detect an emerging bone tumor before any clinical signs of the cancer are present. Detecting the tumor in the its earliest stages could delay or possibly prevent tumor formation.
The first step in this research is the validation of the blood test to detect emerging osteosarcoma in clinically normal dogs.
You can read all about the study and find the link to study enrollment here.
Please consider helping with this research and if you have an eligible hound complete the preliminary enrollment as soon as possible.
