Q: Python 3.7.7, Openpyxl 3.0.3; How to: Properly use delete_rows() within a for iter_rows() loop? This question involves the method in which the delete_rows() function of OpenPyxl modifies the row index number within an excel file.
Goal: With this snippet of code, I'd like to check a specific column for each row in a table, and if the column's cell value equals a particular value, or is empty, then I'd like to delete that entire row from the table.
Problem: When the delete_rows() function deletes a row, it seems to change the index of the remaining rows in a way that makes the rest of the rows not delete correctly (I introduce a row counter which adjusts based on whether or not a deletion occurs, but it doesn't seem to help).
Any ideas or advice is greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

If the above link expires, here is a screenshot of what the sample.xlsx file looks like:

Code snippet:
#imports
from openpyxl import load_workbook

#load file
excel_file = "sample.xlsx"
workbook = load_workbook(filename=excel_file, data_only=True)
sheet = workbook.active

#deleting first row, and cleaning up headers
sheet.delete_rows(1)
sheet["D1"].value = "check 1"
sheet["E1"].value = "check 2"

#remove all rows that start with years earlier than 2018 or are empty
row_number=2
for row in sheet.iter_rows(min_col=2, max_col=2, min_row=2, values_only=True):
    for cell in row:
        str_cell = str(cell)

        if str_cell.startswith("2017"):
            sheet.delete_rows(idx=row_number)
            row_number = row_number - 1
        if str_cell.startswith("2016"):
            sheet.delete_rows(idx=row_number)
            row_number = row_number - 1
        if str_cell.startswith("2015"):
            sheet.delete_rows(idx=row_number)
            row_number = row_number - 1
        if str_cell == None:
            sheet.delete_rows(idx=row_number)
            row_number = row_number - 1

        row_number = row_number + 1

#save as new file
workbook.save(filename="sample_test.xlsx")

A: After a little more research, I came across the following stackoverflow question:
Can't get OpenPyXl to delete rows
User Charlie Clark points out that row deletions should be performed in reverse order to avoid the index issue.  I adjusted my code to implement this idea and I was able to get it to perform as desired.  I've attached my working code below in case it helps point in the right direction anyone else dealing with similar issues.
Code snippet:
#imports
from openpyxl import load_workbook

#load file
excel_file = "sample.xlsx"
workbook = load_workbook(filename=excel_file, data_only=True)
sheet = workbook.active

#deleting first row, and cleaning up headers
sheet.delete_rows(1)
sheet["D1"].value = "check 1"
sheet["E1"].value = "check 2"

i=1
del_rows = []
for row in sheet.iter_rows(min_col=2, max_col=2, min_row=2):
    i += 1
    rowcellvals = []
    for cell in row:
        str_cell = str(cell.value)
        if str_cell.startswith("2017"):
            del_rows.append(i)

        elif str_cell.startswith("2016"):
            del_rows.append(i)

        elif str_cell.startswith("2015"):
            del_rows.append(i)

        elif cell.value is None:
            del_rows.append(i)

for r in reversed(del_rows):
    sheet.delete_rows(r)

#save as new file
workbook.save(filename="sample_test.xlsx")

The Lavrion Technological and Cultural Park is an initiative of the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA) with a multiple role in a distinctive area. The rehabilitation of the site of the former French Mining Company of Lavrio is a constant field of research in multiple areas of science, art and technology. Its unique nature is based on the, not parallel, but united and interactive development between its technological and cultural traits. Additionally, LTCP is a high visited place by members of scientific bodies, international business missions, under graduated and graduated students, but also more than seven thousand school students annually, from the country and abroad.
Today, a high level of research is produced in the facilities of LTCP, both by the institutions that are located on site and by the staff of the Park itself, which is actively involved in various research projects. To deploy the territory as a basic testing background for the production of new knowledge, to deploy the high level of the human resources of the LTCP, as well as the research on environmental issues of old industrial sites, stand as our main issues.
The presence of an up-to-dated laboratory for environmental measurements is also t be noted, as it records basic environmental indicators not only in the territory of the Park, but in the broader Lavreotiki area as well, when demanded.
The research projects, in which LTCP participates, having an independent presence, are given below:

A working mother is not a new phenomenon, and there are more now than ever before. Whether it's by choice, or by necessity, working mums are here to stay.
Of course, this comes with a fair share of mother guilt, plus a heavy domestic and emotional load. And many workplaces haven't shifted to allow for flexible hours to accommodate this new normal.
What can we do about this stressful situation many experience? On Kinderling Conversation, Shevonne Hunt sits down with CEO of nanny recruitment agency Placement Solutions, Louise Dunham, and professor of gender and employment relations at University of Sydney, Marian Baird, to talk about possible answers.
It starts with looking at workplaces themselves. Has the workplace in general been slow to recognise that many families have two working parents?
Marian says that the picture is varied across sectors and industries. Some have responded well, and have accommodated the two-working parent household, while others have been slow.
It's been a growing problem, that women are going to work then coming home to do a majority of the domestic work.
"The concept of maternity leave and parental leave in Australia is now embedded. The next sticking point is this period when a mother returns to work and tries to juggle childcare of young children and her career," Marian says.
One option for family care is employing a nanny to take care of your child. However, often nannies are hired outside of agencies, working illegally.
Louise also notes that Australia has come a long way, including the introduction of in-home care standards put in place in 2008. Additionally, there are three key developments on the way to help change the home care industry.
The second change is that nanny agencies will also be encouraged to employ educated nannies. And thirdly, the greater public need to be educated about what a modern nanny looks like; that is, not a 21st century Mary Poppins.
"We've got to come up with a new system, and in child care we've got to come up with a system that isn't a hodge podge of band-aid solutions, but is a whole new way of looking at it." Louise believes.
Both Louise and Marian believe that part of this is considering the true value of a mother's wage in terms of childcare.
"We have to come up with a new way of thinking that incorporates women's salaries," Louise adds.
Marian believes the government needs to support families more, and live up to their G20 commitment statement to increase female participation in the workplace.
"I do think we need a better government subsidy for childcare, whether that includes in-home child care or centre-based child care. It needs to be integrated, rather than this patchwork system that parents have to try and piece together all the time. We do need a system that covers infant care, preschool care and then after-school care because they're the other area parents struggle with," Marian says.
"We are in a phase of major transformation of the concept of work, and I say that as an educator in that field. But I don't think this means women will work less. I think that we will see men and women working more, and for longer periods in our lives," Marion says.
In Australia, women are back into full time work in their 50s, which means they're not only caring for their own children, but potentially their own parents as well.
The other issue is that Louise raises is that grandparents are often still working if they're not unwell.
"Grandparents aren't as readily available because they're back in the workforce. I think we really do need a radical shift, and the radical shift has probably got to start with both sides of the working parents. There are a lot of statistics that show women still are picking up most of the worry about who's going to do the child care," she says.
Women see it as their responsibility to manage the child care, and as Marian notes, women are the shock absorbers for this fraught system, often putting their own careers on hold.
Returning to work after kids can feel a bit like entering a parallel universe.
Exasperated mum, Shevonne Hunt responds to Steve Biddulph's latest lofty parenting piece.

Lorenzo Bonaldi EnterPrize - V Edition
L'ipotesi del cristallo - Veduta di allestimento. Foto: Jacopo Menzani
From June 9th to July 25th 2010 GAMeC – Galleria d'Arte Moderna e Contemporanea di Bergamo will host in its SpazioZero the exhibition The Crystal Hypothesis, curated by Yoann Gourmel and Élodie Royer, winners of the 5th Edition of the Premio Lorenzo Bonaldi per l'Arte – EnterPrize.
Proposed by Florence Derieux (Director FRAC Champagne-Ardenne), Yoann Gourmel and Élodie Royer were chosen in June 2009 by an international panel composed of Iwona Blazwick (Director Whitechapel Gallery, London), Rein Wolfs (Artistic Director Kunsthalle Fridericianum, Kassel) and Giacinto Di Pietrantonio (Director GAMeC, Bergamo).
The project of Yoann Gourmel and Élodie Royer brings together works by ten contemporary artists who deal with various aspects and ways of seeing in order to evoke – sometimes in an anachronistic manner – the way we look at things today, the way we look at the present time. If the dazzle can be defined as a lack of discernment of reality, we might say that the ultra-saturated era of disposable knowledge and images of all sorts in which we live today causes a collective and contemporary dazzle. In this sense, this repeated dazzle causes a sort of blindness when we think of our relationship to the present day. However this blindness, this forced but necessary loss of sight, which compels us to look back to the past, might also enable the emergence and the precision of our path ahead.
This exhibition is also based on hypotheses developed by the Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben in a short essay entitled What is the contemporary? in which he defines the contemporary as "the singular relationship with one's own time to which one adheres by keeping one's distance" – a definition that he further develops through various (physical, poetic, phenomenological) processes related to sight and vision. Indeed, based on neurophysiology of vision, Agamben explains that the darkness can therefore not be considered a mere absence of light, something like a non-vision, but the result of an activity. In this sense, perceiving the darkness of an era is not a form of inertia or passivity.
As he finally suggests, "contemporary is the one whose eyes directly receive the beams of darkness that come from his time." Looking at the darkness would then be a way to avoid being blinded by the lights of our time. Artists from all times have regularly taken a step back into the past to confront the present and to anticipate the future.
The exhibition title comes from the "Iceland spar", a variety of calcite that demonstrates double refraction: an object placed behind an Iceland crystal appears double, slightly shifted with respect to the original.
This double refraction may be attributed to a temporal phenomenon: if the image of this object appears double, it is because light rays traveling through the crystal split into fast and slow beams; one of the images is older than the other and the rays – which are affected by the speed – are bent at different angles as they exit the crystal.
In a way, this hypothesis of the co-existence of a double temporality echoes the works presented in the exhibition in which certain anachronisms seem to exist to better express the present of which they are a part of. The blind and the dazzled figures (Julien Crépieux, Benoît Maire), the standards of representation (Isabelle Cornaro, Ryan Gander), the circulation of images (Mark Geffriaud, Clément Rodzielski), the distance from which we look at things of the past (Ulla von Brandenburg, Adrian Ghenie, Bojan Šarcevic) are some of the elements that surround this exhibition and the works in it. The exhibition will be accompanied by a 12″ LP vinyl edited and produced for the exhibition by Bruno Persat including songs, sounds and texts suggested by the artists in connection with the works on display.
In the exhibition space, the works dialogue together in a relative obscurity to be sometimes interrupted by different sources of light – artificial, natural or coming from the works themselves. This fade-to-black environment will provide the opportunity to associate works that, while they are formally different, reveal close connections to one another.
The exhibition catalogue draws together a conversation between the two curators about the exhibition and its sources; the images of all the works on show and texts edited by the artists, as well as the transcription of a talk by Benoît Maire entitled Aesthetics of the Differends, closely related to one of his pieces in the show.
The exhibition catalogue is in the form of an LP leaflet. Conceived by the two curators in collaboration with the French graphic designers Coline Sunier and Charles Mazé, this bilingual publication represents an autonomous project itself, rather than a mere catalogue documenting the works on show.
The catalogue will also accompany the 12" LP edited and produced for the exhibition by the artist Bruno Persat; both are on sale at the museum bookshop.

Sunday on TV: Once Upon a Time, The Good Wife, Homeland & More
by Jason the TVaholic on October 28, 2012
in Tonight on the Tube
On cable table, Bravo has The Real Housewives of Atlanta: Hairstylists Tell All special and The Real Housewives of Miami: Bras and Brawls, Part 2 special, Chiller has The American Scream special, Discovery Channel has a Flipping the White House special, and Food Network has the second season finale of Halloween Wars.
In late night, Adult Swim has The Venture Bros: A Very Venture Halloween special.
Prime Picks
Once Upon a Time (ABC): New. Regina is trying not to use magic for Henry, but thinks she is being haunted. In fairytale land, Regina is having a hard time learning to use magic.
The Good Wife (CBS): New. Lemond Bishop's accountant is arrested. Alicia is tasked with finding out what exactly the FBI is targeting.
Homeland (Showtime): New. Brody is imprisoned and interrogated, but they only have a short time to get him to talk and figure out their next step. Plays again later. Last week's episode replays earlier this evening. This season continues to move along much faster than I would have thought with another fantastic episode. Would have thought that the cat-and-mouse surveillance part of the story would have lasted another four or five episodes before getting to the point we end this episode at. Can't wait to see where they go from here. Also of note, Showtime recently picked up the show for a third season.
Solid Selections
MythBusters (Discovery Channel): New. A sound frequency test is conducted. Plays again later.
Revenge (ABC): New. Emily and Victoria both have to deal with people from their pasts. Nolan's company could be in trouble. Runs 61 minutes.
The Mentalist (CBS): New. The 100th episode focuses on flashing back to the first time Jane met Lisbon and the CBI team.
666 Park Avenue (ABC): New. Everyone is preparing for the annual Halloween party at the Drake. Jane is being chased by the entity from the suitcase. Olivia is threatened. Starts a minute after the hour and runs 59 minutes. This episode finally starts to expand out what may be going on, but just barely. Wish they would give us a little more of the overarching story for this series involving the Durrants. They do a decent job with the spooky Halloween stuff, but overall they really aren't keeping my attention. Not sure how much longer I'm going to give this one. What about you?
Dexter (Showtime): New. Dexter learns someone was killed on his boat and goes about finding who. Dexter also deals with Isaak, who is out to kill him. Plays again later. Last week's episode replays earlier this evening. Loving the interaction between Michael C. Hall's Dexter and Yvonne Strahovski's character.
Hunted (MoreMAX): Repeat. This past Friday's episode, "LB," replays. Also replays earlier this afternoon on Cinemax.
The Walking Dead (AMC): New. Andrea and Michone meet some new survivors living in a protected town, but problems come about. Plays twice and again later two times. Last week's episode, "Sick," replays right before and the previous week's episode, "Seed," replays before that.
Sports Notes
CBS has NFL action today.
ESPN has NASCAR racing action with the Sprint Cup: Tums Fast Relief 500.
FOX has NFL action today followed by Game 4 of the MLB Playoffs – World Series.
NBC has Sunday Night Football with the New Orleans Saints at the Denver Broncos.

Note the blurb at the bottom of the video, where you would expect to find comments by whoever posted the video. This insertion into YouTube user content is apparently intended to serve as a warning to any who wander onto this page that the content fits their criteria for being "Fake News." The insertion does not appear on embedded copies of the videos; just on the YouTube page itself. The link to Encyclopedia Britannica is supposed to guide unwary viewers to the actual truth of the matter. It is an exceptionally bland statement of the "official story" of 9/11.
When YouTube and other social media outlets banned sites by Alex Jones several weeks ago there was division in the ranks of presumably progressive commentators in the alternative media. Alex Jones was widely seen as a special case because he promoted such extreme views with a style that many found offensive. Many journalists pointed out that this was not government censorship because the social media platforms were private enterprises and could do what they liked. Some of the alternative media, however, pointed out the close relationships between the corporate giants, such as Google and Facebook, and the political establishment. Wikipedia, for example, has long been known to censor views that diverge from the interests of the political establishment. Try to find any article about 9/11 on Wikipedia that does not label the subject as unreliable conspiracy theory.
Scientists for 9/11 Truth does not promote conspiracy theories. We promote the investigation of the events of 9/11 with scientific rigor. We object to the arbitrary labeling of our research based on the fact that our conclusions differ from establishment views. Science is defined by the scientific process, not the outcomes. We do not claim absolute certainty for even our own conclusions: they are always subject to further investigation and correction. We certainly do not accept the judgment of politically motivated and manipulated investigations, such as the 9/11 Commission Report or the NIST Investigation, or the judgment of corporate entities that cite these kinds of reports as closing the books on the subject.
We view this effort by Google (owner of YouTube) to certify their view of the world as "TRUTH" as an act of propaganda that undermines legitimate dialogue and subverts the scientific process. We call on Google and the other social media corporations to reverse this decision, and we call on all who value an open society to oppose this move.

McCorley welcomes agreement on Foras na Gaeilge budget
28 November, 2014 - by Rosie McCorley
Sinn Féin MLA Rosie McCorley has praised Culture Minister Carál Ní Chuilín's defence of the budget for Irish language body, Foras na Gaeilge.

No. 1053 - St Helens - St Helena & St Stanislaw Catholic Church (1871-1922)
St Helens is the largest town on Tasmania's east coast. It was a whaling station in the early 19th century and when tin was discovered in the hinterland in the 1870s, St Helens developed as a port for the mines. The focus of this article is on St Helens' original Catholic church which was replaced by the present church 100 years ago.
Records of the establishment of the first church are very patchy and the precise date of its construction is not known. It was most likely built in 1871 for it is recorded that the foundation stone of the second church, laid in 1921, took place "50 years after the first church was built".
Catholic worship at St Helens dates back to the 1860s. Walch's Almanac (1870) refers to Fr. M.J. Beechinor from Campbelltown attending the parishioners at St Georges Bay, which was an earlier name for the settlement.
The first direct reference to the church dates to July 1876. A description of St Helens published in the Hobart Mercury mentions that a Roman Catholic Chapel was located close to Captain William's general store. A further reference to the 'chapel' is made in a public notice in November 1877 which announced that a sermon would be "preached at the Catholic Chapel" by the Very Reverend William J. Dunne, with the purpose of fundraising for the 'Indian Famine Relief Fund'. A further report notes that £13 was raised at the event. In the same year Father F. J. Sheehy was appointed as the first priest to oversee the North East Catholic mission.
There are many references to the 'chapel' during the era of Father Mary (1878-1895). Father Louis Frederic Martial Mary was a French priest, who before entering the priesthood, had served in the French army in its campaign against Victor Emanuel of Sardinia and the Garibaldians in the Third War of Italian Independence. Father Mary was an immensely popular priest who had the 'common touch'. Mary was responsible for ministering across the remote and rugged north east of Tasmania. In July 1883 a correspondent for the Hobart Mercury wrote of Father Mary's mission:
"The Rev. Father Mary and I met frequently - sometimes in the wild bush passes of this country, sometimes at camps or hotels. My life is hard enough, but his, bar one thing, is harder. I have a family dependent on a precarious calling; he has not. Rain, hail, or snow, he is on the travel, his district reaching from the Devil's Creek, near Falmouth, through to Cape Portland. He administers to the spiritual wants of a people spread over Falmouth, George's Bay, Gould's Country, Moorina, Brothers Home, Branxholm, upper Ringarooma, and within a few miles of Scottsdale on this line, and at Gladstone, Ringarooma port, Cape Portland, Boobyalla, etc., at various tangents. As regular as the month comes he is at his post, and the sturdy fellows who come to his ministrations, through hail, rain, and bog, eight and ten miles even, and then trudge back to their miserable camps, are surely a living reproach to many of our fine-bred town people, who, except in rare cases, are scared from walking over half-a-mile of clean side-walk to church or chapel by a passing cloud".
St Helens' Catholic 'chapel' was a very rudimentary structure located on Quail Street. Over the years numerous fundraising events were held to replace the building. For example, in 1908 Hobart's Daily Post reported:
"A bazaar in aid of the fund for the new Catholic Church here was opened at Thompson's Hall by Mr H. Grant, who dwelt on the necessity of a new structure, and congratulated the congregation on possessing so active and self-sacrificing priest as was Father Travers. By hook or by crook, the Catholics of St Helen's must erect a permanent church…".
In 1911 Reverend Father Kimbell attended a mission at St Helens. After the sermon Kimbell raised the issue of the "the very great need of a new church". The Mercury reported Kimbell as saying:
"The present miserable structure was positively irreverent, and quite unfit for Divine worship. He understood that the smallness of their numbers and their limited resources made it seemingly impossible for the Catholics of St. Helens, however god their will, to build a church".
In 1912 another bazaar was held in aid of the new church fund:
"Father Travers congratulated all concerned on the splendid manner in which they work altogether, … he hoped soon to see the present dilapidated structure replaced with one that would be worthy of its holy purpose. Some time ago a Launceston Catholic family who desired that their names should not be revealed, gave the princely donation of £100 for the purpose. He hoped the same faith and generosity would move other Catholics who were blessed with this world's goods, to follow such a splendid example and help them in St. Helen's to erect a suitable church to the glory of God. Left to their own poor resources, though most generous according to their means, the Catholics of St. Helen's could not hope to build a church".
In 1921, exactly fifty years after the chapel's opening, a foundation stone for a new brick church was laid on Sunday 26 May. The story of this building, which celebrates its centenary this year, will feature in a further article in 'Churches of Tasmania'.

Chevron in Ecuador
For over three decades, Chevron chose profit over people in the Ecuadorian Amazon.
Chevron throws book at shareholder activist... I mean, shareholder activists
UPDATE [~6 hrs after I published the post below]:
The Wall Street Journal has picked up the story, though under a headline with a very different tone: 'Activist Faces Charges in Chevron Meeting Outburst.' At the same time, MarketWatch has a new, longer version of the story up that still omits the fact that Chevron barred 20 valid proxy holders, but does in fact note the arrest of four critics in addition to Juhasz.
A must-read story was published today with the headline, 'Chevron throws book at shareholder activist.' The article, which appears on the Dow Jones affiliate MarketWatch.com, asks the question – as reporter John Letzing puts it in the subtitle – Are criminal charges the best way to deal with a meeting disruption?
As the article explains, outspoken Chevron critic and oil industry expert Antonia Juhasz was arrested at Chevron'a annual shareholder meeting in Houston, last May:
After causing a scene by blasting Chevron's environmental record and starting a derisive chant, Antonia Juhasz was plucked from the audience and arrested. The meeting wrapped shortly afterward. She now faces up to six months in jail.
The article continues:
"This is very, very unusual," says Sanjai Bhagat, a professor at the University of Colorado at Boulder's Leeds School of Business. "I'm a little puzzled as to why management would take such unusually strong steps."
The professor goes on:
"The severity of this response is going to be counterproductive," according to Bhagat. "At the next meeting you'll have even more activists."
Appearing in a Wall Street Journal-affiliated business news outlet, it's a relatively balanced article, though the reporter does focus on how the action "raises questions about the best way for firms to deal with activists..." rather than the legality of Chevron's actions, or the trend of public companies increasingly limiting discussion and debate at its shareholder meetings.
Most unfortunate though is that the reporter fails to mention that Chevron had four other people arrested that day, and barred nearly twenty other concerned community leaders from the meeting. Each of those people came as legal proxies for Chevron shareholders large and small. In an effort to silence critics, Chevron management systematically denied entry to more than a dozen people negatively affected by Chevron's operations in their communities in places like Ecuador, Nigeria, Burma, and the Philippines.
Amazon Watch's Mitch Anderson (L) and Han Shan (R) under arrest outside Chevron's Houston headquarters, before being taken to Houston City Jail.
The four other people arrested in addition to Antonia included Amazon Watch corporate campaigns director Mitch Anderson (a shareholder) and myself (coordinator of the Clean Up Ecuador campaign) alongside environmental justice leaders Juan Parras of Houston and Rev. Ken Davis from Richmond, California. After being unjustly denied entry to the meeting, the four of us refused to leave, before being taken into custody at the direction of Chevron security personnel.
As the article notes, there is a court hearing in Houston on Thursday at which a trial date will be set.
While it's at the very least disheartening to be facing prison time for showing up to a meeting at which I had every right to be, my plight stands in stark relief to friends I have made in the Ecuadorian Amazon whose lives and communities have been devastated by this arrogant American company.
And we refuse to be silenced by Chevron's ongoing campaign of character assassination and intimidation.
Indigenous Kichwa leader Guillermo Grefa (L) from Ecuador, and Debora Barros Fince (R), an Indigenous Waayu leader from Colombia, sit outside Chevron's shareholders meeting after being denied access even though they both held legal proxies.
*Note: go read the entire article, and if you like, leave a comment. Say what you please but while I noted omissions in the article above, I'm by no means suggesting you slam the piece, which at least highlights the kind of tactics Chevron employs against its critics.

I notice a few of the pictures from the above blog are similar to images that can be seen in Justicia Now!
The fact that we are able to share such powerful images to affect social change gives me a little hope. That said, I see that a draconian response to activism by Chevron management gives credit to the argument that they are in fact responsible for damages done in Ecuador, and are doing their best to effect damage control done to their public image.
Chevron has decided here to silence descent from its own shareholders, both by having them physically removed from shareholder meetings, and also barring those with legal proxy from entry into shareholder meetings. Is it possible that the image of Chevron we are allowed through the commercial media (that image being one of a green company that cares for the environment) is in danger? I hope so.
Chevron's online campaign willyoujoinus.com can offer some insight as to the scope of the damage control campaign the company's Public Relations team is trying.
Justicia Now is also available for free online. http://www.mofilms.org/justicianow/ run time 30 Minutes.
Finally chevrontoxico.com offers further insight into the Public Relations campaign Chevron is waging today, yet from the perspective of those affected by toxic waste left by the company.
For over three decades, Chevron chose profit over people in the Ecuadorian Amazon. The cold and calculated decision to save $3 per barrel and yet poison entire communities is compounded daily as Chevron continues its PR campaign to suppress the truth and barrage the media with lies about its actions and responsibility. This blog is part of an ever-growing campaign to counter Chevron's misinformation tactics and speak frankly about their attempts to hide their role in the world's worst oil-related disaster.

Blackline Renovations
Other Spaces
Seamlessly Integrate the New and the Old: Creating An Addition That Isn't Out of Place
Oftentimes, an addition sticks out like a sore thumb. Rather than enhancing a home's current features, poorly thought out additions fail to blend with the home's original style and architecture. "We have found that most homeowners are increasingly concerned that their remodel or addition will look like a separate part of their home — that it won't work with what's already there."
Whether you're considering a kitchen remodel or an entire addition, finding the right aesthetic can be challenging. That's where Dallas remodeler Chris Black comes in. "When clients are doing an addition or an interior remodel, most would prefer that the new space integrates with the rest of their home," says Black, owner of Blackline Renovations. The best way to achieve this, he says, is to incorporate design elements of the existing home into the new project.
Black begins each project with a feasibility study, which includes a detailed list of questions for the owner. From there, he establishes the expectations and goals. Whether the project includes a historical renovation, a remodel or an addition, Black works to ensure a "well-functioning space that works with today's style of living," as he puts it.
Problem-solving for life
From an addition to a whole-house renovation, remodeling is about making a client's life better, and eliminating any issue that inhibits that, Black says. He enjoys what he does for his clients and is continually improving the company's processes.
Ready to remodel?
Following are some tips from Black to help you integrate your new project into your current home.
"Homeowners need to be willing to compromise," Black says, because the builder may not be able to meet all of your criteria. "If we know your main priority, it will be easier to achieve your ideal final project." You might not get to have everything on your checklist, so allow some flexibility when it comes to your design, specifications and budget.
For this Dallas remodel, the homeowners wanted an accurate historical restoration of their 1920s bungalow, to return it to its former glory while maintaining the integrity of the original design, Black says. They also wanted more storage space and a second bathroom. To achieve this while maintaining their budget, "all relocated or new windows and doors were salvaged to match the existing features of the home without incurring additional expenses," Black says. "By splurging on handcrafted period-style light fixtures, we were able to modernize the house with the historical look the homeowners wanted."

2. Combine Classic and Modern Features
"Everyone wants the latest trends in their remodel," Black says. Those don't necessarily work with every style of home, however. "To create a more seamless design, blend classical and modern, trendy features," he says. "Select fixtures and finishes that will blend with the house but also incorporate popular trends."
The owners of this traditional M Streets Craftsman-style home wanted a more upscale feeling. "This was established by using traditional elements such as narrow hardwood floor planks, wood-paneled wall wainscot, painted cabinetry and classic light fixtures," Black says. "We also integrated current trends such as white and gray marble, polished nickel fixtures and frameless shower glass."
3. Maintain Existing Architectural Elements
When adding on, ensure that original design characteristics are continued in the addition. "When going from one to two levels in the home, try to maintain the same ceiling height," Black says. "Otherwise, it will look like you just plopped a house on top of a house. You should design to your existing home."
In this M Streets addition, the company added a second level to a one-story home. "To ensure that the addition blended in, we kept a similar wall height for both stories," Black says.

Blackline Renovations did an outstanding job on my kitchen and master bed/bath remodel. What set them apart was their attention to detail on every aspect of the project. We would meet at my house on a weekly basis to review what we completed the previous week and what was on the to-do list for the upcoming week. It was very helpful to be consistently informed on the work of the project which kept any surprises to a minimum. The team was extremely professional, knowledgable, and courteous. They went above and beyond to make sure I was satisfied with the project all along the way. The quality of work was fantastic. They did not cut corners and kept to the scheduled timeline. I would highly recommend Blackline Renovations.
H.D.
Chris Black and his team took it down to the studs to renovate the kitchen, master closet and new laundry. We also enclosed a porch, refinished the floors throughout, added attic insulation and poured a new driveway for our 1929 cottage. He was great to work with and had excellent weekly communication. We appreciated that he was very well organized and stayed on budget. I highly recommend him and I will use his company again.
The team has been fantastic and easy to work with. They bring all decisions to me and communicate clearly. The team is always available for concerns and questions. I am constantly updated on the project and workers. Best experience ever!
Paige M.
We used Blackline for two separate projects over the span of one year, and are thrilled with the results from both projects! Blackline did a kitchen/bath/laundry room remodel, as well as a back deck construction and we couldn't be happier with the results. The Blackline team was very communicative, knowledgeable and overall great to work with. Would use and recommend them again.
Jaime G
I chose Blackline because of a strong recommendation from my daughter. I saw first hand the quality of the work and the attention to detail that Blackline delivers. During our renovation, Blackline kept us informed every step of the way. We were not living in Dallas during that time but we knew what was being done and saw photos of the progress. We had great peace of mind.

PC Software: The software SeedCount together with the filling station Contafill makes it possible to fill sample series. The number of bags as well as the number of grains can be defined in the mode "count manually". The automatic mode uses XLS tables which make it possible to complete heterogeneous counting lists within a very short pe-riod of time. A label printer can print details like the test location and the number of grains. The operator only has to detach the bags, attach empty ones and apply the corresponding labels. The request to change the original sample is confirmed directly at the PC by the operator.

University's Access Agreement approved by OFFA
The University has set challenging targets on fair access to higher education (HE) to help meet a Government ambition to double the rate of students from disadvantaged backgrounds entering HE.
At Leeds we are determined to continue recruiting and retaining the brightest and best students. Our Access Agreement sets out a range of measures to ensure that we make further and faster progress.
We will be investing more than £17 million per year in outreach, financial support and student success activities.
Progress to date against our targets
We have seen an increase in the recruitment of undergraduate students from disadvantaged backgrounds year on year. Between 2011-12 and 2014-15 the percentage of students registering at Leeds has grown from 18.4% to a projected 22%.
Our recruitment of mature students from low participation neighbourhoods has continued to increase between 2010/11 (13.3%) and 2013/14 (15.5%).
Student success and retention
The Access Agreement detailed our plans for the development of our Plus Programme. This scheme has been designed to promote: retention, academic success and employability or further study of students from disadvantaged backgrounds.
We continue to make progress in this area and the non-continuation of students from low socio-economic groups has dropped from 9.1% in 2010/11 to 5.8% in 2013/14.
In 2003 we introduced Access to Leeds, an alternative admissions scheme that allows us to identify applicants who have the potential to succeed at university but whose academic grades may not reflect their talents. Access to Leeds has grown from 135 registrations in 2003 to 609 in 2014.
We work with more than 70,000 young people to raise aspirations and achievement. Each year, more than 1000 teachers or careers advisors learn about higher education through parents' sessions and conferences and seminars.
We are making excellent progress with fair access and our new targets reflect our appetite to go even further.
Professor Les Ebdon, Director of Fair Access to higher Education, said: "The work and ambition universities and colleges have committed to today will transform lives. The outreach work universities have planned will open the door to higher education for people who might otherwise have thought it was not for them. The people that universities work with now will go on to be the doctors, business leaders and engineers of the future."


There are days here in the Pacific Northwest where the temperatures will get up into the upper 80s and 90s. Many of us in the Northwest aren't used to this kind of heat and it can cause some serious health concerns especially when we are talking about exercising in the heat.

Dismissed Breach Cases: A Common Element
Yet Another Suit Thrown Out Because of Lack of Proven Harm Marianne Kolbasuk McGee (HealthInfoSec) • October 10, 2014
Yet another California healthcare breach-related lawsuit has been dismissed in the courts because of the lack of proof that anyone actually viewed data stored on an unencrypted computer device that was stolen.
See Also: Live Webinar | Embracing Digital Risk Protection: Take Your Threat Intelligence to the Next Level
A federal court this week dismissed a class action lawsuit against Alere Home Monitoring tied to a 2012 breach impacting more than 100,000 patients.
The suit against Waltham, Mass-based Alere, which provides home testing products and services for patients, was filed in January 2013 in the U.S. District Court in the northern district of California. In the court's Oct. 7 decision, the judge ruled that there can be no liability for the negligent release of stolen medical information under California's Confidential Medical Information Act because there is no proof the data was actually viewed by a third party as the result of the theft of an unencrypted laptop.
Two Similar Cases
There have been similar court rulings in several other recent health data breach cases, including two that are being argued before the California Supreme Court, says Eric Grover, a partner at law firm Keller Grover LLP, who represented plaintiffs in the Alere case.
One of those cases is a consolidated class action lawsuit against Sutter Health related to a 2011 breach involving a stolen unencrypted desktop computer containing data on more than 4.2 million individuals. That case had been dismissed in July by an appellate court in California (see Sutter Health Breach Suit Dismissed).
In a finding similar to the Alere case, the appellate court ruled in the Sutter case that "plaintiffs have failed to state a cause of action under the [California] Confidentiality Medical Information Act because they do not allege that the stolen medical information was actually viewed by an unauthorized person."
The other case being argued before the California Supreme Court involves a class action suit filed against the Board of Regents of the University of California stemming from a breach involving a 2011 burglary at the home of a UCLA Faculty Group Practice physician. An unencrypted external hard drive stolen in the burglary contained data on more than 16,000 patients treated at UCLA facilities. That suit alleged UCLA failed to have reasonable controls in place to prevent the disclosure of private medical information. In its dismissal of the case, a California appellate court noted there was no confirmation that the affected patients' data was actually inappropriately accessed.
Where Data Ends Up
A challenge in breach-related lawsuits involving lost or stolen unencrypted devices is "plaintiffs showing where the data ended up or what thieves did with the equipment," Grover tells Information Security Media Group. Even in breach cases where there have been plaintiffs who have become victims of identity theft, the challenge is "proving with certainty that the identity theft followed the breach," he says.
Grover says the recent ruling gives the plaintiffs 21 days to file an amended complaint against Alere that addresses other concerns. However, no decision has been made yet on whether an amended complaint will be filed, he says.
"The Alere Home Monitoring decision adds to the growing case law in California that holds that a class action under the California Confidentiality of Medical Information Act requires an affirmative showing that medical information was actually viewed by an unauthorized party, not merely lost or stolen," says privacy attorney Adam Greene of law firm David Wright Tremaine.
"This trend is great importance to California entities because the statute provides nominal damages of $1,000 a person," Greene says. "Accordingly, if a laptop containing medical information of 100,000 is lost or stolen and there is no evidence that the information was accessed, rulings like Alere potentially mean the difference between a dismissal and a $100 million verdict."
Attorney Boris Segalis, a partner in the New York office of national law firm InfoLawGroup LLP, says recent court rulings in California and elsewhere send a mixed message to healthcare companies when it comes to breaches.
On one hand, breach notification laws - including the federal HIPAA regulations - expect companies to report incidents that involve the theft or loss of unencrypted patient data, even if there's no certainty information has been viewed or accessed.
Yet, when it comes to the pattern of recent court decisions in breach lawsuits, judges have ruled that plaintiffs have not suffered damages because there's no proof their lost or stolen data has been accessed or viewed. "There's a disconnect between breach notification laws and whether there's enough evidence for courts in these cases that a breach has actually occurred," Segalis says. "There's a lot of ambiguity in breach laws."
Attorney Stephanie Ann Sheridan of the law firm Sedgwick LLP in San Francisco, who represented Alere in the case, disagrees with that assessment.
"Breach notification is proactive in that it tells individuals there are potential problems that could result from an incident, so that individuals can protect themselves," she tells ISMG. In the Alere case, the company offered free credit monitoring to help individuals potentially affected by the incident, she notes. "Alere is pleased with the outcome, and the court rendered the correct judgment," she adds.

Was It Just a Boss Spying on His Workers? First Viking Age Tower Found in Denmark
Archaeologists have recently excavated a very tall structure that can only be elucidated as a tower, in Jutland, Denmark. The "tower" was placed next to larger hall-type buildings, and a possible ritual building. Experts consider it an extremely unique discovery from the Viking Age, as the high building is unknown to Danish archaeology and architecture.
A Viking Age Tower That Could Be Seen from a Distance
The newly excavated site of Toftum Næs, Jutland and the special features – such as the unique and unfamiliar architecture – that have been registered there, have managed to impress local and international archaeologists. Kamilla Fiedler Terkildsen – an archaeologist and curator at Viborg Museum – and her colleagues from Viborg Museum were the first to unearth the tower in 2014, during excavations of a settlement from the Viking Age.

Impressed and excited with the rare discovery, Terkildsen told Science Nordic ,
"It could be seen from some distance away. It must've been an impressive landmark for the place and for the nobleman who lived there. It's unique in its construction and would have required a great deal to build. I really wonder where they got the idea from."
She also added that the tower is about ten meters (32.8 ft.) high and is based on large, heavy posts.

The Tower is Architecturally Unique for the Viking Age and Danish Archaeology
Terkildsen and her team realized quickly that they had unearthed a Viking Age tower, an extremely rare, possibly the first of its kind in Denmark; and they weren't wrong. The tower was first noticed as cropmarks on aerial images of the landscape, before the excavation began. What made them curious about the high structure, however, was its distinctive construction and design, which they had never spotted or seen before in Danish archaeology. So, in order to find out more about the peculiar structure, they asked for advice from the National Museum of Denmark in Copenhagen, "They called and asked if I have ever seen something similar. I hadn't," co-author Mads Dengsø Jessen, an archaeologist at the Danish National Museum, who helped Terkildsen excavate the tower told Science Nordic .
A 'Viking Village.' ( Lukasz Wiktorzak/ArtStation ) Experts believe it would be extremely rare to find a tower in a Viking Age village.
Examining the Viking Age Tower
The tower is estimated to be around 1300 years old, dating back somewhere to the 700s, in the Iron Age. However, the entire site was active up until the end of the Viking Age, around 1000 AD. The archaeologists suggest that the tower was part of the entrance to a larger settlement with several spectacular halls, like others of the kind that have been found in just a few places in Jutland.
The discovery of foreign coins and jewelry imply that the site had contacts with Western Europe, while archaeologists also discovered a fenced house of worship, a type of ceremonial structure used for performing rituals. However, according to Terkildsen, the tower stands out the most, "The site itself is very interesting and one of the few examples of the presence of a chieftain in Jutland, but we emphasise the tower, because there's nothing like it anywhere else," she tells Science Nordic .

Coins ( Pernille Rohde Sloth ) and Viking jewelry ( Kamilla Fiedler Terkildsen ) discovered at the site of the Viking Age tower in Jutland, Denmark.
Usage and Importance of the Tower in the Viking Age
The materials discovered at the site indicate that the settlement belonged to a very wealthy nobleman, who possibly had many workers. As Jessen says :
"You couldn't see very far (from the tower), but you could monitor the river valley, which you can't do from the ground. So the question is whether the pit houses were workshops or residential, or both. One could imagine that the owner wanted to keep an eye on the workers on site."
Furthermore, the structural fluctuation of the site at Toftum Næs, in particular the changes that seem to have taken place during the main use-phase both at the site in question and with regard to the overall development of aristocratic sites with production areas and at the Viking Age towns, are now open for debate amongst Viking Age archaeologists and historians.

In the third of a series of podcasts during National Pain Week 2015, Rachael reflects on how to consider yoga as more than a set of techniques that can help with the symptoms of pain and in doing so, create a more sustainable form of caring.
Medical research has been great for validating the benefits of yoga. But if we stop there we run the risk of forgetting that life is about more than not feeling pain.
Join the Yoga for Pain Practitioner Training to learn more about how yoga can be part of a multi-disciplinary approach to pain care.


Are you a couple or a small group of friends who want to have a holiday onboard a yacht, but not enough people to book the whole boat?
This is not a problem as you can go for our Share a Yacht option, where you will share the boat with other like minded people.
The maximum number of guests on board is 8, and you can have as many people in your group as you want. The bigger your group, the more economic it becomes per person (see our Prices page), and for larger groups it may actually be worth considering booking the whole yacht for yourselves.
There is double occupancy of the cabins, so you will share an en suite cabin with one of your friends, or otherwise, if your number is odd, then someone will have a whole cabin for themselves (with a supplement of 50%).
We make sure that you share the yacht with people who have common interests with you and who have a similar attitude and ideas of how to spend the holiday, so everybody has a great time.
And as keeping the balance in group dynamics is very important, we always try to have an equal number of male and female guests.
You can socialize as much as you like with the others but there is plenty of space for the moments that you want to be alone. We sail for 4-5 hours a day and the rest of the time is spent in a bay or moored at a village, so you can always leave the boat and do your own thing.
The most important is that you are going to be on a yacht with like minded people who want to go off the beaten track, have a little taste of adventure and meet the locals.
To enjoy the sea and the sun, sail around the beautiful Greek islands, meet people and explore a different culture!
If you are interested in any of them, please contact us for dates and availability.
