Smith stakes his claim
LEFT OUT - Alex Smith has not featured in Royals' first team in almost four months.
READING boss Alan Pardew insists forgotten man Alex Smith still has a part to play in the title run-in after his two-goal display in the reserves yesterday.
Smith, a summer signing from Port Vale, lost his place at Reading following the arrival of John Salako.
His last first-team appearance was Royals' FA Cup first round win over Welling on November 17 and he has only made the bench four times since then.
Royals even tried to arrange for him to go out on loan earlier in the season.
But Smith gave Pardew a timely reminder of his qualities by grabbing a brace in Reading's 3-0 Avon Insurance Combination League victory over Bristol City.
Royals' boss said: "It's been hard for Alex. He's had to be very patient, but he has not caused me a moment's trouble.
"It is very frustrating for him. Playing in the reserves isn't ideal but he's a good pro, a fantastic little footballer and could still figure before the end of the season.
"He still has a part to play and that's the same for any player in my squad who performs well."
Nathan Tyson headed Royals in front 10 minutes from time with his seventh goal in nine appearances and Smith rounded things off with a late double.
He pounced on a loose ball after Bas Savage's shot was parried, then sealed a comfortable victory in stoppage time by curling home a
20-yard free kick with his left foot.
It capped a wonderful performance from the Liverpudlian, who started in the left-back role before pushing into midfield in the latter stages.
Adie Williams also staked a claim for a recall after playing for an hour.
Williams said: "I feel a few aches and pains but after this game I am in contention for Saturday."
M PREMIERSHIP Newcastle have laughed off reports linking them with a move for Andy Hughes.
However, ex-Royals player Martin Hicks, who now scouts for the Magpies, was thought to be impressed by the midfielder during the 2-0 win at Wigan in January.
M Alan Pardew has revealed that Rotherham want £200,000 for Kevin Watson, the midfield star who played so well on loan at Reading earlier this season. Royals had a £100,000 offer turned down last month but Pardew would need the green light from chairman John Madejski before going back with an improved offer. The transfer deadline day is March 28.
Dundee's Fabian Caballero and Gillingham's Paul Smith are also rumoured targets.
M Iranian midfielder Hahmed Kavianpour's move to Reading has hit a hitch over financial terms.
Reading, though, are still talking to keeper Frank Talia about a contract until the end of the season.

Who was the better, Singer/Songwriter and Guitarist? Both are similar They both formed great and huge bands but left quite early after mental health problems and drug problems.

Though with Peter Green, he was the lead songwriter on all the albums he was on and wrote practically everything on Fleetwood Mac, Mr Wonderful and Then Play On, he wrote excellent songs like 'The Green Manalishi', 'Oh Well', 'Albatross', 'Black Magic Woman' and 'Man Of The World' whereas Barrett was main songwriter on Piper At The Gates Of Dawn, he was barely on Saucerful Of Secrets Both talented guitarist, while Barrett did two albums and finished in 1972, Peter Green carried on and did several albums in the 1970s and 1980s and founded his band in 1990s and tours today. Who was better?
Hello, I a a very artistic person. I am a huge musician, I love playing guitar, writing songs, and poems, along with painting and drawing. I want to make myself look very mysterious and good looking, someone you want to get to know, not because they look attractive necessarily but because of they just look, well, mysterious, like they're a book you want to read. My number one inspiration is Syd Barrett, the original front man of Pink Floyd. I think that his hairstyle would be perfect for me! Here is a perfect example of what I want: http://kom.net/~dbrick/music/barrett/barrett2.jpg Now, I am still in school, and my hair is blonde and totally straight. So, the complete opposite of what I want. What products and what procedures should I do to get my hair like that? I am kinda thinking about dying it black, but I am not so sure. Apologies for the semi-odd question. Thank you very much!!!
Not many people my age know about Syd Barrett, mainly because he left pink Floyd before they got big with the success of dark side of the moon. So, does anyone here appreciate his music? Oh and he was extraordinarily attractive, just putting it out there.

Can newly elected Brandon Scott be the mayor Baltimore needs?
Sometimes Civil Disobedience is the Only Way to be Heard
by Leah Bolger April 29, 2012 September 23, 2020
Leah Bolger, a retired navy officer, talks about her arrest at Congress and plans for NATO protest
PAUL JAY, SENIOR EDITOR, TRNN: Welcome to The Real News Network. I'm Paul Jay in Washington.
In October 2011, Leah Bolger, a 20 year veteran of the U.S. Navy (retired) walked into the Supercommittee hearings in Congress about debt and deficit reduction and made a speech. Well, she wasn't being called as a witness, so she was arrested. On Thursday she had her trial, Thursday of last week. And she now joins us to talk about all this. Leah, as I said, was in the U.S. Navy. She retired in 2000 at the rank of commander. And she's—recently she was elected as the first female president of Veterans for Peace. Thanks for joining us.
LEAH BOLGER, PRESIDENT, VETERANS FOR PEACE: It's my pleasure.
JAY: So tell us first of all, quickly, what happened in court on Thursday, and then give us a little bit of the context of why you were there.
BOLGER: Well, in court on Thursday I pled guilty to the charge of unlawful conduct, disruption of Congress, and I decided to waive my right to a jury trial, because I admit what I did. I broke the law because the law says you can't just speak out in committee hearings or a meeting of Congress. But I felt obligated to break the law, because that seems to be the only way that a regular citizen can be heard by Congress. And, in fact, I am the only person who was heard before the Supercommittee, and I had to break the law to do that.
JAY: You mean, the only person that was heard that wasn't the—what do you mean? There were other people that testified there [crosstalk]
BOLGER: There was—the only witness was Doug Elmendorf, who's the director of the Congressional Budget Office. So, I mean, he's part of the system. So nobody—no witnesses were there to testify on behalf of the American public.
JAY: Okay. Let's just show a little clip of what happened that day.
BOLGER: Tax the rich and end the wars. That's how we fix the deficit.
SEN. PATTY MURRAY, SUPERCOMMITTEE COCHAIR: The committee will—committee will be in order, please.
BOLGER: And all this obfuscation with percentages of GDP, this is just trying to confuse the issue. The answer is very obvious.
MURRAY: The chair wishes to remind all of our guests that—.
BOLGER: The vast majority of the public wants you to tax the rich, end the wars. We spend more on war spending than the rest of the world combined.
MURRAY: I would request that the Capitol Police restore order.
BOLGER: And this history of this vast, grotesque spending on wars and the war machine—
MURRAY: The committee shall recess until we are in order.
BOLGER: —has depleted the base of this economy. And we would have enough money for housing and health care and everything that we wanted if we stopped spending our money on this black hole of the military machine. It's very obvious. I speak for the 99 percent. End the wars and tax the rich.
JAY: So when you went to court, the judge in theory could have given you more serious sentencing, but he didn't. Did you get some sense that he somewhat sympathized with what you had done?
BOLGER: Absolutely. I mean, I really feel like the sentence was a huge victory. He could have given me six months in jail, and he didn't have to suspend any of it. He could have given me six months in jail. He could have given me up to a $750 fine. But what he gave me was really quite minimal. And I—twice in the hearing, after—as he was imposing the sentence, twice he said, I sympathize with your criticism of the government. And, you know, the government also (the government meaning the prosecutors) asked for a stay away order—all of Capitol Hill they wanted to ban me from. And the judge did not agree to any stay away, and I think that was a very strong indication that he supports my activism and—or any citizen that should not be prohibited from having access to his or her government.
JAY: So part—one of the conditions of probation is that you can't get arrested again, obviously. And so I know you're planning to go with Veterans for Peace to Chicago where NATO is meeting. So what are you going to do there?
BOLGER: Well, absolutely I will be there. You know, I think the voices of veterans speaking out against NATO is very, very important. And, in fact, our organization, Veterans for Peace, plans to deliver a letter to the leadership of the NATO summit, and talking to them about our position on NATO and why it should be dissolved. And so I will be there.
And I hope that we—the police allow us to exercise our First Amendment rights. I hope that nobody is arrested. I hope that there is no violence. There certainly won't be any violence on the part of members of Veterans for Peace. But we hope to be there and to address these leaders. And if I'm arrested, then we'll deal with that situation as it comes. But I'm not going to stay at home and be intimidated and hide away and be afraid of confronting the powers that be.
JAY: Now, you're going to be doing this in the midst of an election campaign. President Obama certainly has said nothing that would make one think he's going to change U.S. policy or its role in NATO—quite the contrary, in terms of the war of Libya, and what's being done by AFRICOM in Africa, and in Afghanistan and such. But how do you find where Veterans of Peace will position itself in this issue, given that I assume most of the people in Veterans for Peace would find the Republican foreign policy even more dangerous?
BOLGER: Well, Veterans for Peace is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, and we do not support any particular party or candidate. What we do support is nonviolence. We oppose war. We oppose the machinery and the mechanisms of war. And our government is deeply entwined in the military. Military-industrial-governmental-banking-media complex is all one huge knot, and we oppose that. So we speak out in principle on what we oppose and what we support, and we're vehemently opposed to war, killing, and militarism. And we don't take any stand on candidates.
JAY: Both parties are talking about honoring America's soldiers and treating them properly when they get home. What's the reality of that?
BOLGER: Well, the reality is that our government does not budget enough money to take care of any of its people. And the soldiers, in my opinion, are important, but they're no more important than the average citizen who doesn't have health care or doesn't have access to good education or doesn't have housing. And the truth is that we would have enough money for every citizen to have health care and housing and education if we stopped pouring our money into the black hole of the war machine. So, you know, it's really an easy answer.
Veterans for peace doesn't necessarily advocate for veterans. What we do do is advocate for peace, and we advocate for human needs and uplifting the people. And that's what we desperately want our government to do is to listen to the needs of the people, listen to our voices. And if they were truly listening and representing us, then they wouldn't spend sixty cents out of every dollar on the war machine. They would spend it on our priorities, which are health care and education. And we've been saying that for years, years and years and years.
JAY: Thanks for joining us, Leah.
BOLGER: My pleasure.
Leah Bolger
Leah Bolger is a 20-year veteran of the U.S. Navy who retired in 2000 at the rank of Commander. She was elected as the first female president of Veterans For Peace. Bolger has been involved in several national efforts and she has been arrested several times for acts of civil disobedience, most recently in a hearing of the Super Committee, where she called on the Committee to "End the Wars and Tax the Rich."

City of F.C.: 'We Can't Inform Public of Each New Covid-19 Case'
March 25, 2020 3:43 PM by Jody Fellows
In its daily coronavirus newsletter update, the City of Falls Church announced it can no longer inform the public of each new case of coronavirus in the City.
"The City will continue to be in close contact with [Fairfax County Health Department], but we will not be able to inform the public of every case in the City from this point forward," the note read.
An alert will be sent out if the Fairfax County Health Department deems there is a risk to visitors of a certain place at a certain time, the newsletter added. The City cites the recent announcement by Fairfax health officials that they would stop reporting summaries for each new positive case.
"Fairfax Health District is no longer reporting case summaries for each new COVID-19 positive case, as laboratory reporting is increasing from public and commercial labs," the department announced, though it said total cases in each health district will continue to be updated daily.
There have been two reported positive cases of the coronavirus in the City of Falls Church, both at The Kensington senior living center on W. Broad St.
As of Wednesday afternoon, there have been 77 reported cases in the Fairfax Health District which includes the City of Falls Church, City of Fairfax, Fairfax County and its towns.

I have to say a big thank you to Ken and Steven for letting me tag along as they inspect their bees, and for all the sage advice I've received so far.
Here are Ken and I, looking for a queen in this colony today. It took awhile, but Ken found her. She hadn't mated yet, so she looked more like a big worker than a queen. I never would have spotted her!
One thing I'm learning as I watch Ken and Steven is that it's important to keep good records. They use a voice recorder to take notes on the temperature and weather conditions, what they see in each hive, and plans for the next trip out. I may not be so technologically advanced – pen and paper will probably be my recording tool of choice – but I can see the value in keeping track of how the hives are progressing through the season, and anything I might learn along the way.
Question: How do you get rid of ants that are crawling all over the inner cover of your beehive?
Answer: You get out your propane torch and blast them into the afterlife.

Q: Question about path method for multivariable limits I have to prove that the limit $$\lim\limits_{(x,y) \to (0,0)}\dfrac{x^2}{x+y}$$ does not converge.
This is fairly 'easy' to do, but while I was doing it I came across some doubts. I took the limit $(x,y)\to(0,0)$ when $y=mx$. In this case, the function approches zero as x approaches zero.
Then I tried to approximate it with a curve. But none of the curves $y=x^{n}$ worked, so I did $y=x^2-x$ and then took the limit, which is $1$.
My question is, can I do that? I mean, the only condition that, as far as I know, I have to check, is that the path have to include the point (0,0), but is that the only condition? I know it may be a silly question, but I've never find any theorem regarding the path method and I want to be sure that I'm not messing things up.
I'm sorry if the redaction is a bit messy, It's been a while since I  write something in English, please, if you don't understand something I wrote, ask me. Thanks!

A: Aside from showing that two limits differ as you do for $y=x$ and $y=x^2-x$, you can also do this in one fell swoop:
Let $y=x^3-x$, then you get
$$\lim_{(x,y)\to (0,0)}{x^2\over x^3}$$
which clearly diverges to infinity.

Robert Robb battled for the 'Punchbowl' during Korean War
Cpl. Robert Robb receives the Purple Heart from his platoon commander, Capt. Birney Adams, at a ceremony in Korea during the war. Photo provided
Cpl. Robert Robb was a sniper attached to Fox Company, 2nd Battalion, 1st Regiment, 1st Marine Division in Korea during the war. His unit took Hill 749, a volcanic mound known as the 'Punchbowl,' away from a regiment of North Koreans holding the high ground in mid-September 1951.
Lt. Birney Adams, Robb's platoon leader, wrote a friend 31 years after the battle: 'I doubt I have ever been so sure I was going to die, except one time with a kamikaze at Okinawa. You know the feeling. And yet, like automatons or clones … you hung in there and kept fighting.
'Did I ever tell you, intelligence summaries of January 1952 indicated 1,200 men of the 45th Regiment, 91st North Korean Peoples Army were killed on the nights of 15-16 Sept. 1951? It was so far beyond anything that could be believed by anyone who was not there …'
At the Punchbowl, they were holding the line above the 38th Parallel that would eventually divide North and South Korea, while both sides tried to negotiate a peace treaty.
'We had been in a rest area waiting to move up. They took us by truck to the base of this hill that would eventually be known as Hill 749, Robb recalled from the comfort of a poolside table at his North Port, Fla. home 60 years later.
'While waiting to be resupplied with more ammo, 20 or 30 Marines came walking down the hill. I said to one of them, 'Hey, where's the rest of the Marines?'
"That's all we got left. Go get yours, we got ours!' one of the Marines coming down the hill replied.
"Thanks a lot, pal," I said.
'By the time we started going up the hill, it was dark. We had only taken about 10 or 15 steps and there was an enemy land mine right in the middle of our path. Two Marines were standing on either side of the mine making sure we got over it.
'About a quarter of the way up the hill, a Marine was being carried down by two stretcher-bearers. The guy on the stretcher said to me, 'Be careful. There are gooks all over the place up there. You can't even see 'em!'
'We kept going on up the trail in the dark. All of a sudden I saw this gook soldier sitting along the side of the trail holding his rifle, but saying nothing. He was dead as a doornail. Some jarhead (Marine) had put an ace of spades on him.
'Me and my buddy, Tommy Bourg from Syracuse, N.Y., were Marine snipers. We had scopes on our M-1 rifles. We weren't attached to any particular unit. We just went where we were needed,' Robb said.
'The two of us were resting along the side of the trail when our artillery opened up. It came within 50 yards of us. Shells were going over our heads, but they would scream like they were coming right in with us.
'We decided to crawl into some slit trenches. I turned my head and a dead gook's foot was inches from my nose.
Pfc. Thomas Joseph Bourg, Robert Robb's sniper buddy in Korea, lounges in front of a pup tent in a rest area. The young sharpshooter was killed by an enemy mortar on New Year's Eve 1952. Photo provided
'They hit us hard that night charging with their burp-guns. You'd hear their bugles as they ran toward us in the dark, yelling, 'Marine, you die tonight!'
'They kept coming 'til almost daylight.'
In the midst of the melee, Robb and several other Marines sustained minor injuries from an incoming enemy mortar. It was this incident that resulted in Robb's Purple Heart.
He and his buddies in Fox Company, 2nd Battalion, 1st Regiment, 1st Marine Division never got to the top of Hill 749. They were pulled back and another Marine outfit took their place. The other unit fought their way to the summit and victory.
Robb said, 'We were back down at the bottom of the hill where we started the day before when this sergeant came along looking for a couple of snipers. He said, 'You two come along, they need you up on the point. Everybody's getting shot to hell up there.'
'We were right on the point when attacked by a regiment of North Koreans. Tommy and I had been brought up to Hill 884 to fill in for Marines killed or wounded,' he explained. 'This sergeant put me in one hole by myself and Tommy was put in a hole next to me with a machine gun. I found a carbine with a bunch of extra ammo in my hole.
'Another guy from Texas named Ward, I don't remember his first name, jumped in with me with his BAR (Browning Automatic Rifle). The gooks kept coming at us that night. All we could see was their muzzle blasts. Artillery shells were coming in and going out. There was an occasional flare that lit up everything.
'When one of those flares went off, I could see this enemy soldier walking along in front of us like he was going to the drugstore. I cut loose on him with my carbine,' Robb said.
'Two days later the guy from Texas was sniping at the point when he was killed. Enemy mortar fire took him out,' he said. 'About that time, Tommy, my other sniping buddy, returned from somewhere. For the rest of the time I was in Korea, almost, Tommy fought alongside me.
'It was New Year's Eve 1952 when tragedy struck. Tommy and I were together. I took the first watch and he took the second. At midnight all our artillery started going off,' Robb said. 'They must have thought we were going to attack. The enemy started throwing stuff back at us. Tommy was killed by the concussion from an incoming enemy mortar.'
Looking back on his military service with the 1st Infantry Division fighting in Korea, Robb said, 'I can't really say I was scared because there was too much going on. But it's not something you'd like to go through more than one time.'
Robb holds a cartoon drawing on the back of his old fatigue shirt, drawn by an unknown artist in his company. It shows a fox in Marine uniform depicting "Fox Company," his unit.
In the spring of 1952, Robb sailed home across the Pacific in 12 days. This was about a third of the time it took to get there by ship when he arrived in Korea, he said.
'We sailed into San Francisco Bay and under the Golden Gate Bridge. It was wonderful.'
It wasn't until he and a 6-foot 4-inch Marine, who looked much older, tried to order a cold one at a bar in San Francisco that he knew he was home.
'They'd served him but not me,' Robb recalled. "Whataya mean you won't serve me a beer? I just got back from being shot at in Korea!" he declared.
'You got to be 21,' the barkeep replied.
He was 19.
Robb eventually went to work for IBM, where he spent most of his career. He and his wife, Annette, moved to this area seven years ago. They have three grown children, Bobby, April and Sandra.

New Wimbledon Theatre is at the top of Russell Road.

A very comfortable stay with Rob and Iain in their lovely home.
Perfect hosts, highly recommended!
Cleanliness:
Laura Middleton
What a beautiful house! I stayed in the loft room for two weeks and had a really enjoyable stay, I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again and it was a really easy journey for me to 3 Mills Studios which took about an hour!
Thank you Rob and Ian for being so accommodating !
Alastair Whatley
I greatly enjoyed my stay here, the room was immaculate as was the house, everything you could ask for.
Thoroughly recommended!
Victoria Bewick
I stayed in the Guest room last week and I was made to feel very welcome.
The digs are very handy, only a 10 minute walk from Colliers Wood station and the house is beautifully put together to a very high spec.
I would definitely recommend these digs for anyone performing in London.
Lisa Lewis
Fantastic digs.
I was working in Richmond Theatre which was a very easy commute, it takes 25 minutes via train and 35 minutes via the car.
Great week, hosts are lovely and friendly.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for digs for Wimbledon/ Richmond area as well as West End.
Jack Evans
A very nice room with an impressive entertainment system in a lovely modern house.
The hosts are very considerate and kind, understanding the nature of the industry as members of it themselves.
Ian Jardine
Absolutely brilliant digs, Rob and Iain are incredibly welcoming.
The room and house are immaculate, truly a home away from home (I particularly like the in room coffee machine!) I only wish I'd had more time to spend in the house. I would stay here again tomorrow and would recommend them to anyo... read more ne

Guys what can I say. These digs were amazing. Rob and Iain were such lovely hosts and very easy to get on with and the house was amazing. The house was immaculate and the room was very comfortable and its own tv and surround sound. The kitchen is fantastic and the guys were so helpful if I wanted to ... read more cook/use their kitchen-ware.
Access to transport was a must for me on this stay so the close proximity of Colliers Wood tube station (Northern Line) and the short walk to Wimbledon town centre was very much a selling point for me. There is also a bus stop pretty much opposite the house.
The luxurious nature of these digs made it very comfortable and homely and having such great hosts made it a pleasure to come home to at night. I will be definitely staying again if I can. Thanks so much again guys.
Regards Josh.

Research by J-PAL affiliates in the Crime, Violence, and Conflict sector seeks to expand the narrow base of rigorous evidence on the best ways to prevent, reduce, and manage crime, violence, and conflict.
Crime and violence can hinder economic development and urban growth, and exacerbate governance challenges by fostering corruption and draining public sector resources. Poorly designed efforts to prevent or reduce crime and violence can also impose substantial social and economic costs on communities.
Key questions include the motivations behind criminal and violent behavior, ways of better understanding how social and political violence are organized, and evaluating the impact of policy responses designed to deter crime and violence or alleviate their negative effects. J-PAL affiliates' research explores critical questions in this field, including how to cost-effectively improve police performance and perception, help at-risk youth reduce criminal and violent behavior, and reconcile communities in post-conflict fragile states.
In addition to supporting policymakers in applying evidence from randomized evaluations to their work, sector chairs and staff write policy insights that synthesize general lessons emerging from the research, condense results from evaluations in policy publications and evaluation summaries, and fund new research through the Crime and Violence Initiative.
Understanding Each Other: Improving Inter-Ethnic Cohesion in Schools in Turkey
An interactive classroom program encouraging students to consider one another's perspectives in Turkey lowered peer violence, improved relationships between refugee and Turkish students, and increased prosocial behaviors like trust, cooperation, and altruism.
Improving Tolerance through Soccer in Post-ISIS Iraq
Promoting positive and cooperative contact helped Iraqi Christians displaced by ISIS build tolerance toward Muslim peers after conflict, but these effects did not generalize to the broader Muslim community.
Governance, Crime, and Conflict Initiative Evidence Wrap-up
What are the most promising strategies for reducing crime, violence, and conflict? The past decade has seen a dramatic expansion in the experimental literature designed to help answer this question. Moving beyond evaluations of individual programs, these studies seek to advance our understanding of...
The Impacts of Intensive Municipal Governance and Community Organization on Gang Governance in Medellín

Preventing intimate partner violence by engaging men: Evidence from Unite for Better Life in Ethiopia
A growing body of evidence suggests that gender inequality, especially social norms that endorse violence against women, is one of the main drivers of IPV.

Pushing the boundaries of governance, crime, and conflict research: Innovations in research, measurement, and design

With three years of research behind us, we...
Farmers and the fear of crime: Improving agricultural productivity through farm protection in Kenya

Reducing criminal behavior through cognitive behavioral therapy
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can reduce criminal behavior among both at-risk youth and criminally engaged men, likely by helping them focus more on the future, change their self-perceptions, and/or slow their decision-making.

Formed in 2016, FENECE is a Buenos Aires, Argentina based blackgaze / ambient black metal that unquestionably has everything to defend the genre that has carried a lot of baggage and has been plagued with many misconceptions. Their debut EP was released in May 2018, but due to their upcoming agenda and new follow up EP release later this year, we caught up with them to give you a proper introduction of their work and unveil some dark themes behind the bleak trio of concise, yet multi-dimensional tracks. Immerse into their dark landscapes and see the full track by track rundown below.
Our first EP emerged after months of searching for our sound during rehearsals. We were influenced by bands like Altar of Plagues, Deafheaven and Celeste. The songs deal with topics such as spirituality, death, dogmas, and the limits between the immanent and the intangible horror.
This song is about the breakdown of the self. In a desperate attempt to get away from the pain, we deny it and we don.t deal with it. It is a song about repressed impulses and time, which moves on while burning everything.
It is about the violent masses and the loss of individuality. We repeat what they tell us without thinking for ourselves and take rumors at face value. We are the polarized people that justify violence with a truth that does not really exist.
The song talks about touching bottom and being totally broken, with only our desires and resentment with us. From that abyss we can rise again or remain in darkness.


Spend a little time with Marcos Salaverria, and you'll see how captivating the past can be, especially if the talkative director of education for the Lewes Historical Society is in costume.
He learned when he was 8 years old and met "George Washington" that a personal interaction with history creates a lasting impression, and that's his goal when engaging LHS visitors young and old. But Salaverria is particularly focused on creating interactive programs for students.
Since joining the historical society last August, he's worked steadily on increasing visits to its complex, with a goal of doubling past attendance. And as of early summer he was on track to succeed: At that time, Salaverria had hosted 500 students at special events and expected to draw an additional 500 through fall, exceeding the 600 who attended in 2014. In addition, he's willing to take Lewes history on the road by visiting schools.
He moved to the area for the job last summer (along with wife, Whitney) with a deep appreciation for the past and a resume filled with related experience, from leading history-laden tours of downtown Annapolis on a Segway to managing visitor programs at Tryon Palace, the colonial capital of North Carolina in New Bern. He most recently worked as director of education and volunteer manager for the Historic Annapolis Foundation.
In the spring, the society worked with a local bakery, Old World Breads, and featured two cookies — sugar and molasses — to teach children about the passage of the controversial Sugar Act by Parliament in 1764. Kids could vote for their favorite and consider if they could live without sugar today.
Visitors can find Salaverria in action at Heritage Days events, at the Mini Menhaden program he offers for small groups of preschoolers or walking the LHS grounds dressed as a turn-of-the-century sailor speaking with visitors. His office is a small room inside the Ellegood House, a circa-1800 building at the LHS complex currently hosting an exhibit on Delaware's breweries and craft beers.
The latter is a topic dear to his heart. His interests include trivia of all sorts, "Star Wars," comic books — and historical alcohol products, including beers and wines that are made from old recipes. "Dogfish Head being close, too. That was a selling point," Salaverria says of his move to the area.

Anganwadi workers are the backbone of the Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) scheme that was initiated by the government of India in 1975 to improve the nutritional and health status of preschool children. Yet, they are considered by the policy makers and society not as employees but as 'volunteers' or 'honorary functionaries' that help tap the potential of reserve labour in the society. Anganwadi workers however resist to be exploited by realising their labour rights. Unionisation of Anganwadi workers was a result of this realisation. Recently, the Anganwadi workers struggle in the state of Karnataka made history, by joining in thousands and marching to Bangalore, blocking every corner of the city with their sheer number and determination. There were approximately 80,000 anganwadi workers in the march on 12th February 2015 demanding the reversal of privatization of Anganwadi Centres, and the fixing of minimum wages of the Anganwadi workers.
The struggle was planned and executed by the Karnataka State Anganwadi Workers and Helpers' Association affiliated to CITU, Com.S.Varalakshmi (All India Secretary of CITU) and the AITUC led the union in the state. Karnataka has about 61,000 Anganwadi Centres where over 1,20,000 workers and helpers are enrolled as `volunteers' on honorarium basis. In 1994 when the present CITU union among them was organized their monthly honorarium was Rs.750/- per Anganwadi Workers and half that @ Rs.375/ for helpers. CITU Union adopted various methods of organization and struggle on sectoral basis which led to the gradual improvement of the monthly payment to the current level of Rs.5500/- per worker and Rs.2750- per Helper. Prior to this the demand for a common minimum wage of Rs.10,000/- per month was intensely fought, in 2009, by all workers including Anganwadi Workers, which is referred commonly as the September Struggle.
Neoliberal forces benefit the most when maximum labour force remain in the informal sector with no space for unionisation. However, as the supposedly non-unionised anganwadi workers began to unionise and press for their demands for regularization, superannuation benefits etc. there was a clear policy shift towards privatisation of the ICDS Scheme. Under the first UPA Government there were talks to entrust Anganwadis to Gram Panchayats. Later under the UPA-II government and the present NDA government the thrust is to carry out the Scheme in a Mission Mode. The shift in the policy also lead to a shift in the ownership of the service providers. For example under the mission mode the administration of the scheme and service provision like pre-primary education, nutrition etc are entrusted with NGOs and corporates. This is made very clear by the Finance Minister, Arun Jaitely in the latest budget speech(2015-16). In Orissa the scheme was handed over to Vedanta, the company behind bauxite mining. They are asked to run the scheme using the funds available under corporate social responsibility. Other companies like Britannia has also taken up this challenge. Recently there is also a trend that organisations owing their allegiance to the BJP government are supported to take up the project. In Karnataka the BJP leader Anantha Kumar's wife's organization named Adamya Chethana is eying for the scheme. What is never talked about is the impact of government's withdrawal from the social sector and corporate's business interests in such endeavours like ICDS recently.
"The Leadership decided to ask all the striking workers to march to Vidhana Soudha on February, 12th. And the response was historic, whereby an estimated 80,000 Anganwadi workers and Helpers marched to Bangalore. Just as the vanguard reached at the point of entry to Freedom Park, they were stopped by barricaded police force. Over hundred feet wide road for more than two kilometers long were full of protesting women workers, the rear getting swelled at the City Railway Station."
Based on an analysis of the current trends, the CITU Union adopted a two pronged strategy of opposing the mission mode and simultaneously making the demand for minimum wages, which the workers worked out to be Rs.15000 at current price. The union drew its strategy and executed it. A series of divisional conventions were organized starting from Jan 12th at Bangalore where apart from CITU & AITUC leaders, literary figures, cultural activists and social service personnel were involved. Such conventions were organized besides Bangalore at Mysore, Mangalore, Karwar, Dharwad, Bellary and Gulbarga. These conventions which were attended massively by Anganwadi workers and Helpers, created a favourable atmosphere among the public and socially committed intelligentia. Regional Jathas by Anganwadi workers were taken out to canvass support of the people throughout the state. The Jathas covered over 3000 Panchayat areas in the state.
The union served the notice of strike and Jathas starting from Feb 2nd at the end of these conventions to District/Taluk Centre. At the same time the demands were submitted to the concerned Minister for Women and Child Development Smt.Umashree along with the departmental officials at Bangalore. Political discussions were made at the Chief Minister's level as well.
After exhausting all options, the Unions went ahead with the strike from Feb 2nd. Over 50,000 centres were closed during the strike. From Feb 2nd onwards, the striking workers assembled and started 24 hour dharnas in front of DC offices. The approach of the Deputy Commissioners were varying. In certain districts the Deputy Commissioners offered to make arrangements of Community Halls for the women to stay during night. These offers were politely refused. Some Deputy Commissioners organized night lamps toilet facilities etc for the women workers. In some other districts like Karwar etc the approach of Deputy Commissioners was cruel and oppressive such as declaring section 144 etc. The workers heroically faced all these situations. Coupled with the cruel approach of certain deputy commissioners, the Principal Secretary, with encouragement from the Minister tried their best to run the Anganwadis by forcing Mid day meal workers and others to open the Anganwadi Centres. They also served notice threatening dismissals. ICDS officials started phoning up Anganwadi Teachers and threatening their removal. It is under such pressure that the leadership decided on 10th Feb to ask all the striking workers to march to Vidhana Soudha on February, 12th. And the response was historic, whereby an estimated 80,000 Anganwadi workers and Helpers marched to Bangalore. Just as the vanguard reached at the point of entry to Freedom Park, they were stopped by barricaded police force. Over hundred feet wide road for more than two kilometers long were full of protesting women workers, the rear getting swelled at the City Railway Station.
The whole central districts of Bangalore got into a traffic jam. This writer was caught up in the jam at Rajajinagar itself on his way from Mahalaxmi Layout to Freedom Park and had to take gullies to reach Kalidasa Marg, where the workers were finally assembling. They assembled there only after receiving an assurance for the Unions to negotiate with the Chief Minister. The workers were determined to stay any length in Bangalore in the open air if their demands were not favourably considered.
It is after three hours of negotiations that the government agreed to write to the Government of India that the Karnataka Government does not want to adopt the mission mode. Minister Umashree herself came and addressed the workers. With her tactical approach, being an actress, she conveyed at first that she is not against the interests of the women workers. And then step by step she explained how the Government did not favor their strike as it affects the services to be rendered to the beneficiaries. She then announced that the State Government will write to the Central Govt against the ill effects of the Mission Mode. She did this tactfully that missions need be entrusted the task of advising on instruction to the child beneficiaries etc. She then went to announce raising death relief from 20,000 to 50,000. She also assured that there will be some increase effective from 1st April after the next budget. This was heard under murmur and protest. Finally after Comrade Varalakshmi explained to them that the Chief Minister admitted that he had never faced such a successful and difficult to tackle strike all through his political life and that he would favourably consider the demand, the workers were persuaded to end the protest. The decision to withdraw the strike and to re-open the Anganwadi centres from the next day was on a caveat that they will go on strike again if the state budget does not have provision to enhance their wages.
The trade union centers were buzzing with calls on the day the Central Budget was announced, with Anganwadi workers calling from all over the state to enquire whether the government had made provisions to enhance their honorarium. However the BJP government's commitment to cut short on welfare schemes reflected in the meagre allocation towards the ICDS scheme also. Finance Minister, Arun Jaitley even states that corporates should be empowered and they in turn would support the poor. With the central budget being a disappointment, the unions and the workers are now turning their attention towards the state budget to see whether the state government will keep their promises, if not the streets are for the workers to fight and win their rights.

Q: So there are apparently 2 different ways to solve equations with absolute values... $\newcommand{\abs}[1]{\lvert #1 \rvert}$I watched every youtube video about solving equations with absolute values and all of them talk about something like this:
$\abs{x} = 2 + \abs{2x + 3}$
then they split it into two parts
$x = 2 + 2x + 3$
and
$x = -(2 + 2x + 3)$
and then if they get a correct equation after checking, it's a correct solution.However in my school they taught us a completely different technique
\begin{align*}
|5x - 1| & =
\begin{cases}
5x - 1, &  5x - 1 \geq 0\\
-(5x - 1), &  5x - 1 < 0
\end{cases}\\
& =
\begin{cases}
5x - 1, & x \geq \frac{1}{5}\\
-(5x - 1), & x < \frac{1}{5}
\end{cases}
\end{align*}
and then we would need to combine all possible combinations and then draw them on the number line while nobody on the internet did this, why would anyone make things so complicated?
But the biggest problem is that some solutions in my workbook use equations while some use inequalities, how do I know when to use what and what am I supposed to do when i use the first technique and get a correct equation without the $x$ (for example $5 = 5$ and not $x = 5$)?

A: $\newcommand{\abs}[1]{\lvert #1 \rvert}$I trust your school method better.
If $x \le -\dfrac{3}{2}$ you have
$$
- x = 2 - 2 x - 3.
$$
This will give $x = -1$, an invalid solution, as $x = -1 > -\dfrac{3}{2}$
If $-\dfrac{3}{2} < x \le 0$, you have
$$
-x = 2 + 2 x + 3.
$$
This will give $x = -\dfrac{5}{3}$, another invalid solution.
If $x > 0$ you have
$$
x = 2 + 2 x + 3.
$$
This will give $x = - 5$, another invalid solution.
So there are no solutions after all. I would recommend that you use an application that can plot the function
$$
f(x) = 2 + \abs{2 x + 3} - \abs{x},
$$
so that you can get a feeling for its behaviour.
