The History of the Woolton Picture House.
Woolton`s cinema was designed in 1926 by Lionel AG Pritchard, (Honourary member of The Associate Royal Institute of British Architects).an established architect who designed several cinema's on Merseyside, including the Plaza Crosby, West Derby Village picture house, Clubmoor Picture house,The Reo cinema Longmoor lane and the Ritz Anfield.The location chosen to build the Woolton Picture house was less than idyllic,with its close proximity to residential housing on both Mill Street and Mason Street along with its challenging steep hill. However the steep gradient was adapted very effectively by the architect to create a stadium like auditorium in a very compact and refined space. Shortly after the design plans were finished, with an outlay of £10,000 to complete the venture, the proprietors "The Woolton picture house co Ltd" were granted a magistrates licence on condition the main construction of the building be complete within six months.Work began proper in April 1927 by A Adams & Co on Woolton villages first and only purpose built cinema. The building construction was completed on schedule by October 1927 with the interior finishing touches made in November & December 1927. Although the cinema celebrates its opening on December 26th there is actually no official recording of the opening date or memory of the first film shown. From records and licences it can be presumed the cinema opened sometime between December 1927 and February 1928.
The Auditoria originally had a seating capacity of over 800 this included towards the back of the hall several rows of wooden benches . In or around 1930 (with the advent of movie sound) the screen was brought forward to accommodate large loudspeakers at the rear. To do this the first few rows of seats had to be removed. The financial loss due to a reduced seating capacity was however soon overcome by the pulling power of the talking movies .In the 1930`s,came the ever growing popularity of the silver screens of Merseyside, with little urban competition the Woolton cinema ensured its success and prosperity to last through the 1940`s. The cinema remained open throughout the war years, surviving the bombing raids of WW2 whilst providing the close knit local community of Woolton a vital window to the front line,courtesy of the Pathe Newsreels.After the war years modest Success continued and in 1954 the ownership of the cinema changed hands from the proprietor R L Weller to Robert Godfrey of Cheshire county cinemas. It wasn't until the 22nd September 1958 when the cinema's continuity was dramatically disrupted by a fire near the front of the screen which soon spread, almost destroying the public area of the Auditorium. The building remained closed for three months, during this time extensive work was essential in order to bring the building back to its original condition whilst maintaining the same original décor and ambiance of the 1920`s. The new refurbishment included comfortable seating (which reduced the capacity to under 600) plus a new screen, new curtains and a new air ventilation system The eagerly awaited Reopening was on the 22nd of December 1958 with the showing of Walt Disney's "Old yeller" plus the supporting film "sail into danger".
In the 1960`s at a time when many of the old style single screen cinema's of Merseyside had already fallen victim to changing public trends & the colour tv, Wooltons regular cinemagoers and the success of the popular children's serial film Saturday matinees helped secure the Woolton`s future.However with American style multi screen cinema looming on the horizon,the owners Cheshire County cinema's could not afford to be complacent. In the 1980`s they revamped the front exterior of the building by adding a prominent row of large white steel slats, new canopy and new illuminated signs.During their time in ownership they also installed a new wall-to-wall screen proscenium, along with new carpeting, 256 luxury Pullman seats, (reducing the capacity further for a much more spacious and comfortable setting). Cautious of a uncertain future they also applied for a betting license for the intended use of bingo and although the betting and gaming board had no objections the ideas were later shelved by the cinema owners themselves.By the 1990`s Cheshire county cinema's had wound down their chain of cinema's and were seeking a new buyer for the Woolton cinema.The threat of closure was treated with despair by both cinema staff and the local community.Thankfully in 1992 without closure the Woolton cinema's ownership changed hands for a sum approaching £105,000 to first time cinema owner David Wood, son of Tony Wood and the grandson of Merseyside cinema pioneer John F Wood (former owner of the Bedford chain of cinemas including their flagship cinema the Abbey Cinerama Wavertree).
First came the unexpected death of David Swindell the Chief projectionist and backbone of the cinema for almost 40yrs followed in quick succession by the death of cinema owner David Wood.The Cinemas future was now once more put into doubt and realised when the owners remaining family announced their intentions to close the cinema and sell off the building due to their bereavement. Despite all achievements for the second time in little over a decade the staff and local community were once more in despair at the impending loss of Woolton's cinema.The final curtain under the ownership of The Wood family came less than six weeks after the announced closure and the Woolton cinema closed on the 5th of September 2006 with the film Pirates of the Caribbean 2. Both before and after the closure, campaigns to save the cinema gained momentum with this our own websites www.wooltoncinema.co.uk leading by example to be the first and official staff website dedicated to saving Woolton`s cinema,this soon attracted more campaigns, local media attention and even more public support. (One such event also resulted in the remaining members of John Lennons former Woolton band the Quarrymen reforming to offer their support). After a further four months of closed doors and an uncertain future the sale of the Woolton cinema was completed for a undisclosed amount believed to be in the region of £450,000, To the delight of all concerned the anonymous Merseyside consortium of businessmen announced their intention to reopen the cinema "claiming" to take on all the original staff. As of March 2007 against all the odds and all current trends the Woolton cinema regained its status as the oldest surviving independant cinema on Merseyside.

Analysis, PDEs, and Mathematical Physics
The center of mass for this research is a new class of separable Banach spaces , which contains each corresponding space as a dense continuous embedding. These spaces are interesting because they contain the HK-integrable functions and the space of distributions. The HK- integral is easy to understand, extends the Lebesgue integral and integrates non-absolutely integrable functions. The spaces generate an arena for a number of interesting research topics in analysis, partial differential equations and mathematical physics.
Abba Gumel (Arizona State University)
Mathematics of the Transmission Dynamics and Control of the 2019 Novel Coronavirus
The world is currently facing a devastating pandemic of a novel Coronavirus (COVID-19), which started as an outbreak of pneumonia of unknown cause in Wuhan, China in December of 2019. As of April 26, 2020, COVID-19 (caused by the novel SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus) has spread to over 210 countries and territories, causing about three million infections and 207,000 deaths. In the absence of a safe and effective vaccine against COVID-19, and safe and approved antivirals, control and mitigation efforts are focused on the use of non-pharmaceutical interventions, such as social-distancing, quarantine, aggressive containment (i.e., rapid detection, isolation and contact-tracing of confirmed cases), use of face masks in public, etc.
The purpose of this project is to use mathematical modeling approaches and rigorous analysis, coupled with data analytics, to assess the population-level impact of various non-pharmaceutical interventions on the control and mitigating the burden of the pandemic. In particular, the models to be developed will take the form of deterministic (autonomous and non-autonomous) systems of nonlinear differential equations. The project entails the rigorous analysis of the models (using theories and techniques from nonlinear dynamical systems, particularly bifurcation theory) to gain insight into their dynamical features and to obtain epidemiological thresholds, in parameter space, that govern the persistence or effective control (elimination) of the pandemic. Furthermore, statistical tools will be used to estimate the parameters of the models, as well as to fit the models with available data and to carry out uncertainty and sensitivity analyses.
The ultimate goal of the project is to contribute, through mathematical modeling, rigorous analysis and statistical data analytics, to the development of effective public health policy for combating the pandemic in the U.S.
Ryan Hynd (University of Pennsylvania)
Hamilton-Jacobi Equations in High Dimensions
Hamilton-Jacobi equations (HJE) are partial differential equations which were first derived to study problems in classical mechanics. These equations have also played a central role in control and game theory. While these equations have been around for centuries, it was only in the 1980's that mathematicians first began to develop robust methods for studying solutions. Since then, there have been a plethora of interesting models that involve increasingly sophisticated HJE.
One direction of current interest is to study HJE when the dimension of the underlying space is large. This occurs, for example, in mechanics problems with a large number of particles, in control theory studies involving many possible states, and in differential games which include a large number of players. In these settings we can obtain very general HJE, sometimes called "master equations, which involve derivatives in time, space, and the distribution of agents.
In this project, we will discuss ways of studying solutions to these high dimensional HJE and hopefully identify some specific research avenues. I have worked a bit on these types of equations in the past, and I will be participating in a long program at UCLA's Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics on this topic right before the ADJOINT program. My goal is to learn about all of the most salient problems related to this topic so that I can have several specific ones to suggest when we meet.
I imagine that this project will involve elements of partial differential equations, real and functional analysis, optimization, metric geometry, and perhaps some optimal transport. You won't need to be an expert in any one of these areas, but it will help to have some familiarity. I also think that doing this research will be an opportunity to gain expertise in these topics.
Bonita V. Saunders (National Institute of Standards and Technology)
Validated Numerical Computations of Mathematical Functions
During the late 1930s, 40s and 50s accurate tables of function values were calculated by human 'computers' to facilitate the evaluation of functions by interpolation. In addition to logarithmic and trigonometric functions, these reference tables included values for gamma, Legendre, Jacobian, Bessel, Airy, and other high level or "special" functions important for applied and physical applications.
The advent of reliable computing machines, computer algebra systems, and computational packages diminished the need for such reference tables, but today's researchers and software developers still need a way to confirm the accuracy of numerical codes that compute mathematical function values. Project participants will be introduced to the field of validated computations of special mathematical functions, which is the development of codes that compute certifiably accurate function values that can be used to test the accuracy of values produced by personal, commercial, or publicly available codes.
The level and depth of some activities may depend on the skills and interests of the participants, but everyone will receive a brief overview of the field, look at examples that motivate the research, and become familiar with key terminology such as precision, base, floating point arithmetic, and correct rounding. Participants will also receive a short introduction to error analysis and have the opportunity to examine the DLMF Standard Reference Tables on Demand web site where a lot of the research discussed is being implemented. The goal is to provide an introduction to validated computing that piques the participant's interest and provides the first step toward learning more about the field.

Explorations in Inverse Spectral Geometry
Inverse spectral geometry is the study of the relationship between the spectrum of a closed Riemannian manifold — i.e., the sequence of eigenvalue (counting multiplicities) of the associated Laplace-Beltrami operator — and its underlying geometry. Two manifolds are said to be isospectral if their spectra agree and a geometric property is said to be audible or spectrally determined if it is encoded in the spectrum. The spectrum is known to encode the dimension, volume and total scalar curvature of a manifold; however, the literature contains numerous examples which demonstrate the spectrum does not completely determine the geometry of the underlying space. Nevertheless, it is expected that certain natural classes of Riemannian manifolds are characterized by their spectra. For example, it is widely believed that the round -sphere is uniquely characterized by its spectrum; however, to date, this has only been proven for round spheres of dimension at most six.
Our research group will work on problems motivated by the following questions:
To what extent is the length spectrum of a manifold encoded in its Laplace spectrum?
Is the local geometry of a low-dimensional manifold encoded in its spectrum?
How are the covering spectrum of a Riemann surface and its Laplace spectrum related?

Q: unable to access the dom element in vuejs I've been trying to create a simple drag and drop component but I'm having problem selecting the div using getElementById. what am I doing wrong here? the error says: Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'addEventListener' of null.
also the console log gives null instead of the div element.
<template>
    <div class="highlight" id="dragZone">
      <input
        v-model="inputText"
        placeholder="Write something..."
      />
    </div>
</template>
<script>
import $auth from '@/services/auth';
import $utils from '@/services/utils';

const dropArea = document.getElementById('dragZone');
console.log(dropArea);

// Prevent default drag behaviors
function preventDefault(e) {
  e.preventDefault();
  e.stopPropagation();
}

dropArea.addEventListener('dragenter', preventDefault, false);
dropArea.addEventListener('dragleave', preventDefault, false);
dropArea.addEventListener('dragover', preventDefault, false);
dropArea.addEventListener('drop', preventDefault, false);

// Handle dropped files
async function handleDrop(e) {
  const dt = e.dataTransfer;
  const files = dt.files;
  this.uploadingFile = await $utils.uploadFile(files, credentials);
}

dropArea.addEventListener('drop', handleDrop, false);

export default {
  props: {
    links: {
      type: Object,
    },
  },
  data(){
   return{
      uploadingFile: null
  }
}

</script>

A: In Vuejs you need to put your function inside the method object of your component.
And you also need to put the logic that needs to be run when the component is mounted inside the mounted object.
https://v2.vuejs.org/v2/guide/
import $auth from "@/services/auth";
import $utils from "@/services/utils";

export default {
  props: {
    links: {
      type: Object,
    },
  },
  data() {
    return {
      uploadingFile: null,
    };
  },
  methods: {
    async handleDrop(e) {
      const dt = e.dataTransfer;
      const files = dt.files;
      this.uploadingFile = await $utils.uploadFile(files, credentials);
    },
    preventDefault(e) {
      e.preventDefault();
      e.stopPropagation();
    },
  },
  mounted() {
    // Put logic that needs to be run when the component is mounted
    const dropArea = document.getElementById("dragZone");
    console.log(dropArea);

    // Prevent default drag behaviors

    dropArea.addEventListener("dragenter", this.preventDefault, false);
    dropArea.addEventListener("dragleave", this.preventDefault, false);
    dropArea.addEventListener("dragover", this.preventDefault, false);
    dropArea.addEventListener("drop", this.preventDefault, false);

    // Handle dropped files

    dropArea.addEventListener("drop", this.handleDrop, false);
  },
};

Also it is better to use ref if you want to access the dom.

Q: Facebook SDK for Android: how to get the user's gender I suppose its either getProperty("sex") or ("gender") or user.asMap().get("sex") or ("gender") ?
also, what kind of permission do I set in the following line?
authButton.setReadPermissions(Arrays.asList("basic_info", "email", "user_likes", "user_status"));

A: no seperate permission for this this values you can get gender like this And see THIS
   private String UserInfoDisplay(GraphUser user) {

        StringBuilder userInfo = new StringBuilder("");
        String Name =  user.getName();
        String Id =   user.getId();
        String lastname =    user.getLastName();
        String firstname =  user.getFirstName();
        String getUsername =  user.getUsername();

        String get_gender = (String) user.getProperty("gender");

        String image_url = "http://graph.facebook.com/"+user.getId()+"/picture?type=square";

        Log.i("User information == >", Name +Id + lastname+
                firstname + image_url + get_gender +  getUsername + "usermail"+User_mail  );

        text.setText(Name + "  mail = " +User_mail);

        return userInfo.toString();
    }

A: You can get the gender of user from the "user_about_me" permission and get the gender from the response json by user.getProperty("gender")                                .toString().

A:   Request.executeMeRequestAsync (session, new Request.GraphUserCallback() {

        @Override
        public void onCompleted(GraphUser user, Response response) {

            String fbId = user.getId();
            String fbAccessToken = fbAccessToken;
            String fbName = user.getName();
            String gender = user.asMap().get("gender").toString();

            Log.i("FB", gender);
        }
    });


At its core, the MRP is about helping our children experience success in line of their own development. The MRP show our children what they can do and how much they can achieve when rugby is modified to support their needs.
The program embodies the essence of rugby, to embrace inclusion and diversity across the board by bringing together families and communities who, traditionally, would not have the chance to participate in a community sport at their local club.
Through the GingerCloud Leadership Program, supported by MRP Ambassadors, rugby legends Nathan Sharpe and Tim Horan AM, PlayerMentors are trained to become leaders of the future, creating a generation of people for whom disability is normalised.
From 1 team of 16 MRP Players and PlayerMentors at 1 Club Brothers in 2014 the MRP community has grown to include 8 teams totalling 160 participants across 6 clubs in South East Queensland in 2016.
With the support of QRU and the ARU (Australian Rugby Union), GingerCloud's vision through the MRP is to change the world's perception of children with learning and perceptual disabilities one rugby club at a time!

More than the country of car-packed streets seen in TV shows and movies, the United States of America is a complex and diverse home to over 300 million people living in a wide range of landscapes and climates. From its big-city skyscrapers to its sprawling natural parks, the country's ''melting pot'' combines many ethnic groups that share a strong sense of national identity despite their cultural differences. A country of road trips and big blue skies, the United States harbors orderly cities filled with restaurants, parks, museums, and innumerable sightseeing opportunities, as well as pristine natural areas perfect for a holiday in the great outdoors. To see as much as you can of this diverse land quickly, drive over some of the more than 6 million km (4 million mi) of highways leading through deserts, mountain peaks, fertile fields, and giant urban centers.

Western Pa. Press Club prepares to give honorary award to KDKA Radio amid yet another Wendy Bell controversy
Screenshot of Wendy Bell's show
KDKA Radio has a long and storied history in the 100 years since it was founded in 1920, which will be honored Thu., Sept. 3 at the Press Club of Western Pennsylvania's annual Golden Quill Awards. KDKA Radio will receive a Service to Journalism award for its contributions to the profession.
But the radio station is also under fire this week, as once again Wendy Bell, one of its most public-facing radio hosts, has made comments enraging many Pittsburghers.
"My easy solution for the park rangers, and hopefully snipers who are hopefully going to be watching for this, is to shoot on sight. [Shooting noise] Shoot. Done," said Bell, about protesters targeting Mount Rushmore during a June 26 episode of her radio show. "No more messing with monuments. You wanna mess with a monument? Done."
Bell is no stranger to controversy, as she has repeatedly come under fire for comments made during her KDKA Radio show. But this week, the clip of her suggesting that park rangers shoot people protesting monuments went viral, and many Pittsburghers on social media criticized Bell. The opposition against her was so strong that KDKA-TV, which is not affiliated with the radio station, issued a statement reminding people that Bell doesn't work for the station, as many people were complaining about her to KDKA-TV. (KDKA Radio is owned by Entercom, while KDKA-TV owned by VIacomCBS.)

The elusive puffin remains an iconic symbol of Cannon Beach.
In the 2018 season, only 55 puffins were spotted returning to nest at the rock and fewer than a 1,000 puffins exist in the wild in Oregon and Washington combined.
"Alaska is the only state with a stable puffin population," said Melissa Keyser, Director of the Haystack Rock Awareness Program.
Keyser presented the 2018 annual report to the City Council at the March 12 work session, and there is some really good news. Wildlife harassment has "dropped substantially" since 2015, wildlife collection and off-leash dog counts were also down.
HRAP wants to protect the last nesting colony on the Oregon coast, but they also want to help visitors be better stewards of the unique marine habitat.
Keyser thinks that some of the progress is from small and simple changes. After they noticed an increased trend in dogs running through the garden off-leash veteran staff member and education and volunteer coordinator Lisa Habecker suggested bringing dog leashes in the truck. After that easy change there was a major decrease in these occurrences.
Other progress is the result of bigger changes. The program had over 160 volunteers in 2018 and worked a lot of their signage, providing most signs in English and Spanish. They've also adopted a more educational than enforcement approach and Keyser believes this is reflected in their recent success.
But the program still has work to do. Trampling and rock climbing have increased significantly and Keyser attributes this to changing sand conditions exposing more of the marine garden and an increase in visitors. Drone usage is also increasing. There were a 114 drones cited during the season last year. In 2018 the HRAP interpreters had direct contact with almost 100,000 people, the most of any year they've been on the beach.
And as the program grows, other needs are becoming more apparent. The beach wheelchair program is currently at capacity. Last year, 312 people used the beach wheelchair check out program but 570 additional people wanted to and couldn't because of available resources.
HRAP has also seen an increase in field trips. In 2018, the program worked with 70 school groups. Each group was limited to 130 students to prevent excessive impact on the marine garden and to allow volunteers and staff to provide the best possible experience. And Habecker also implemented a new virtual tour program for the first time.
The virtual tour allows HRAP interpreters to, "communicate across the country and in another language," said Keyser.
Councilor Robin Risley said that that virtual tour program "really fit in" with the chamber's new love it like a local campaign.
The Haystack Rock Awareness Program is supported by the city, but they're also raising money from grants and other sources.
Last year HRAP raised $66,000 through grants, donations and sales of artwork. Funds support staff to serve as interpreters seven-days-a-week, two hours before and after low tide, from sunrise to sunset, only pausing for three months in the winter when it's too dangerous to be outside.


EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. >> The New York Giants have struggled to run the ball effectively all season. On Monday, with newly signed Peyton Hills in the backfield, they took some steps forward.
Hillis, who has also played for Denver, Kansas City and Cleveland, carried the ball 18 times for just 36 yards, but had five receptions for 45 yards. More importantly, he scored in the second half of New York's first victory, a 23-7 decision over Minnesota.
"In his short amount of time, he was able to keep his poise and knew the terminology," Coughlin said. "He was at the right place at the right time and was huge for us, because we went into the game questioning who was going to be there.
A day after a win that improved New York to just 1-6, Coughlin mentioned that the contributions of Hills and another recent signee — fullback John Conner — will help to push the other players on the roster as the Giants try to build some momentum.
Coughlin said that he didn't know more about the status of starting center David Baas, who had just returned to action after missing three weeks with a neck injury. Baas left Monday's game with a knee injury suffered on the Giants' first possession. He did not return.
Baas was slated to undergo tests Tuesday afternoon. As he did the previous three games, Jim Cordle stepped in at center to replace Baas.
The defense was key for New York vs. Minnesota. After giving up a league-high 209 points, it pitched a shutout. Minnesota was limited to 206 total yards, running back Adrian Peterson posted just 28 yards rushing on 13 carries, and new quarterback Josh Freeman was under constant pressure, finishing 20 of 53 for 190 yards. The Vikings were held to a special teams touchdown.
The Giants face the Eagles (3-4) Sunday in Philadelphia. New York is already 0-1 vs. the Eagles.


No two horses are alike and in the same way no two races are alike as well. There are several horse race betting systems (one free at GertGambell.net) and plenty of people letting you know how to go about it. However, you should find out the basic principles of horse race betting in order to understand the game well enough to boost your money.
To begin with you must learn how to read the Daily Racing Form Past Performances report. This report tells you on the horses' performances during the past races and how it is expected to perform. There is a "favorite" listed in every race. But, it is not necessary that this horse shall be your winning bet. You need to take into the account all of the true possible contenders as it may be noted that almost 66% of all races are mostly won by way of the non-favorites.
Aside from this there are several additional factors that influence effective horse race betting. Horse race handicapping systems are certainly one that you must learn and understand prior to placing any bets. Horse race handicapping might appear a little trying and complex at first but by giving it some time and generating a little effort, you shall have the ability to master it.
One of the primary things to learn before starting the handicapping process is to comprehend the difference between good and bad bets. Making a bad bet is the easiest thing to do. You simply need to go on to the various horse racing betting sites and read of the big races as well as the "favorite" horses. These sites will handicap the races in such detail that towards the end of it everyone will have all of the so called winning information. But that's not what we should are looking for. Your task as a handicapper is to find the racing imbalance…to locate a horse which is not being touted heavily but is more prone to win.
You should take into account that using any one of these above factors in isolation, particularly the Beyer Speed figures, is not going to yield a winning result. Good handicapping necessitates the collective use of every piece of information that you can get for the above mentioned factors.
Upon having mastered the fundamentals of horse race handicapping, you can further enhance your knowledge by checking out the horse pedigree, turf racing, organizing and creating your own personal bets. You by then will probably develop your individual unique handicapping technique.

Ben Field Exits Divided Labor Council After 'Fair Elections' Ballot Measure Debacle
By Dan Pulcrano
Less than a month after a key measure to change San Jose's election dates failed to make it to the ballot, Ben Field has resigned.

Right after ending a five-year tenure as chair of the Santa Clara County GOP, Bob Nuñez landed a new gig as an acting superintendent.

What would've been a routine nomination erupted into a political brawl between county Assessor Larry Stone and Supervisor Dave Cortese.
Milpitas City Manager Accused of Misusing Taxpayer Money
Milpitas once again finds itself at odds with its city manager, whose litigious posturing has triggered a probe into suspected corruption.
Election Day Roundup
It's election day and with it comes a ballot packed with key decisions for Santa Clara County, though voter turnout is expected to be pretty low.
Rural/Metro Loses Patient Reports
Rural/Metro took over Santa Clara County's ambulance contract last July, and by most accounts the company has done a good job. The company submitted a low bid to replace American Medical Response, and county Supervisors George Shirakawa, Mike Wasserman and Dave Cortese championed Rural/Metro as a low-cost yet responsible replacement. Aside from a rough transition in the first month on the job, response times have been above the required threshold in most cases. However, what isn't found in the monthly reports that Rural/Metro is required to submit to the county is the number of patient records the company lost in its first two months on the job.
The Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors recently passed its $4 billion annual budget, and in one of her last meaningful acts, Supervisor Liz Kniss, who will be termed out at the end of the year, recommended that the county give $47,000 to Palo Alto Animal Services. This wouldn't be that big of a deal—the amount accounts for .001 percent of the budget—except for the fact that the animal shelter is in no way related to county business. Oh, and there's one other important detail: Kniss is running for a seat on the Palo Alto City Council this fall.
Eddie Garcia Not Seeking Re-Election

Garcia, 46, suffered a major heart attack last June, and is currently on medical leave from his job as Chief of Staff for Supervisor George Shirakawa.

Have you heard of Banksy?
Banksy is a famous British graffiti artist from Bristol. He creates all his art in secret - in fact, no one knows his real name! Often, his paintings have a sense of humour behind them and he usually paints about controversial issues. You can see his art on walls, in zoos, on the street.
Have you heard of Hirst?
Damien Hirst is also from Great Britain. He is the richest artist in the country. He became famous after attending Goldsmiths University in London, and was very popular in the 1990s. He has used a lot of dead animals in his work, including dead sharks, sheep and cows. He is popular for his diamond-covered skull, which was shown in an art gallery for a limited amount of time.
Have you heard of Duchamp?
Marcel Duchamp was a French-American painter and sculptor. He is considered to be one of the most important artists of the 20th century as he has influenced many artists. He changed what was the 'normal' idea in the art world. Perhaps his most popular piece of work is simply a men's urinal that he decided to label as art. He did nothing to it. He didn't paint it, he didn't make it, he didn't alter it. He saw it and decided to call it 'Fountain'.
Have you heard of Eggleston?
William Eggleston is an American photographer who made modern colour photography acceptable as an art form. Before him, black and white photography was more popular. Eggleston's photographs are very 'American'. They contain lots of images of 'Coca-Cola, No Parking signs and palm trees'.
Do you have a favourite painting or a favourite artist? Tell us about them.
Art is something to express yourself. When you are sad you take a paintbrush and you start drawing something to feel better or to communicate an idea. When I paint I invent an image to express something that is happening.
Not surprisingly, my grandad is a painter. He told me that to do a portrait I must measure the proportions of the face. For example, the mouth, the nose, the eyes etc.
I like Picasso because his painting are normal portraits with abstract things. Picasso said "Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life". I agree!
Haha, good one jovanbeast90! I do get it now - had to do a bit of research first. I like it!
-Well,my favorite artist is Vincent Van Gogh and his painting ,,Starry Night''. It's amazing! I like his style of painting,colors that he used and the scenes that he painted.
I love art.It's one of my favorite subjects. I can draw well. My favorite artist is Leonardo da Vinci.
No, I don't. My friends said that I was good at painting as my teacher always gives me the good mark in the art class. But surprisingly, I don't like painting at all..
I love art.I like drow picture.
Yes, I do. Disney is my favourite artist. He was a painter too and many characters are designed by him. Mickey Mouse is the most popular of them. Diamond-covered skull of Hirst is pretty cool. I like to draw and paint too. I think that temporary art is so hard to understand. We'll never know the exact meaning of an art work.
I think art is expressing yourself in anyway you want to just make sure not to hurt no one.
I love painting my last paint was a nativity scene.
Pictorial art is one of my favourite types of art.My favourite artist is Sattar Behlulzade.I wish i could see all his pictures some day.
Yep I've. He's Pablo Picasso. Full name: Pablo Diego José Francisco de Paula Juan Nepomuceno María de los Remedios Cipriano de la Santísima Trinidad Ruiz y Picasso. I've been in he's house in USA.
No, i don't have any favourite paintings. I'm not really interested in art especially in painting and i am not talented in it. All my buddies enjoy painting, they used to take art class in extracurricular when i was the only one who didn't interest with it.
I have many favourite artists. I like French impressionists the best. I adore Auguste Renoir and Claude Monet, and Spanish artist Diego Velazquez.
My favourite English artist is Louis Wain. He painted cats and it was his main theme. He was so original and his paintings so interesting. He suffered from schizophrenia.
I like art very much, but I'm not talented for painting. I wish I could paint.

Today, most of the states have graduated license programs that were designed to keep young drivers safe during their first years of driving. Ohio is no exception to this rule and the Ohio graduated drivers license program features the same key elements as GDL programs of other states, such as mandatory drivers education programs, supervised driving hours and prolonged drivers permit holding periods. The Ohio graduated license program applies only to drivers under age of 18, so if you are already 18 years old, you may follow a simplified application procedure when trying to obtain your Ohio drivers license. Keep in mind that even though most of the GDL rules don't apply to you, you will still have to take the Ohio permit test!
The reason why teenagers are "disadvantaged" so is the fact that according to the statistics, teenage drivers have the highest crash rates among all other age groups. There is no single factor that is to blame for this, it's a combination of insufficient driving experience, inability to predict the consequences of one's actions and proneness to risk taking behavior. The graduated drivers license system that is currently in place in Ohio addresses all these issues with compulsory drivers education classes, supervised driving and a number of permit and license restrictions that were designed to keep teenage drivers out of trouble.
Before we get into the details, we would like to remind you that the Ohio graduated drivers license requirements described here are applicable only to those who choose to apply for the Ohio drivers license before they turn 18 years old. You can read a detailed account for the licensing procedure in the official Ohio drivers manual.
In order to move from one level of the graduated license system to another, the student has to fulfill a number of requirements. As you go through the levels, you are given more driving privileges with each next step. Failure to meet the requirements of a certain level may see you downgraded to the previous stage of the program.
You must be at least 15 years and 6 months old in order to be eligible for the Ohio temporary instructions permit, however you can start preparing for this well in advance. One of the requirements set before you by the BMV is that you have to prove that you know the state driving laws and you do so by taking the Ohio permit test at one of the license testing stations. You can learn everything you need to know for the temps test by reading the temps handbook and following up with some practice permit test Ohio sample questions. There is more than one practice temps test available on the site, choose from this Ohio BMV practice test or the Ohio driving practice test once you are done with permit practice test questions. Do as many sample questions as possible, it will really help you once you go down to the testing station!
Once you pass the test and receive your permit, you can start practicing your driving, but you must make sure to observe all Ohio learners permit restrictions while you do that. The main condition of you driving with a permit is that you must have a supervising driver seated next to you at all times. For those who are under 16 years old the supervising driver must be a parent or a legal guardian while everyone else can drive with any licensed driver who is at least 21 years old. The Ohio graduated license law mandates that you are not to have more than one passenger who is not an immediate family member at this stage. All passengers that you carry must wear seatbelts.
During this phase of the graduated license program you must complete an Ohio drivers education class. The class includes both classroom and driving hours and once you are done with those, you will get an official certificate of completion that will come in handy when you decide to take your Ohio drivers test.
The temporary instruction permit must be held for at least 6 months and within this period you must complete at least 50 hours of supervised driving with your parents (in addition to the compulsory drivers education class).
You can apply for your Ohio junior drivers license once you successfully fulfill the requirements of the previous step of the Ohio graduated drivers license program and have passed a driving skills test. The junior license allows you to drive unsupervised most of the time, but it still has a number of restrictions that you will need to abide to. If you are 16 years old, you cannot drive unsupervised between midnight and 6 a.m. If you want to drive during this time, you must have a parent or legal guardian seated next to you. For drivers who are 17 years old the curfew is between 1 a.m. and 5 a.m.
16 year olds who are convicted of a moving violation within 6 months of receiving a license will have to drive under parental supervision until they turn 17.
A full Ohio drivers license can be issued only to those who are at least 18 years old. When you reach this age, your junior license will be automatically upgraded to a full license and all restrictions of the Ohio graduated driver's license program will be removed.

Kite Fishing: The Complete Guide
Updated on Aug 23, 2022 | 8 minute read | Written by Katie Comment

There's no other way to put it – if you're new to angling, then the idea of fishing with a kite just seems weird! When you want to reel in a brag-worthy catch, it's hard to see how a childhood toy could possibly come in handy. Well, as outlandish as it may seem, kite fishing is actually one of the oldest fishing techniques in the world. It's truly stood the test of time, and is still going strong to this day.
Kite fishing is believed to have originated in the Polynesian islands. However, it's now a popular fishing technique across the US, especially among saltwater anglers hoping to hook big game fish. If you're looking to target hard-fighting fish that live in deep waters and spook easily, this technique gives you the chance to reach previously inaccessible waters and sneak up on 'em.
So how exactly can you go kite fishing? What can you target, and where are the best places to practice this technique? Don't worry – we've covered all of this for you below, and more. Let's dive in…
What is kite fishing?
Kite fishing is pretty much exactly what it sounds like – fishing with a kite. And that isn't a euphemism, either. You really will be using a kite that resembles those from your childhood, albeit a special one that's suitable for fishing. But more on that later!
But what's the main goal of kite fishing? To fish live bait on the surface of your chosen fishery in the stealthiest way possible. This technique may seem a little strange, but the practicalities of it are pretty simple:
✔ You'll select your kite and attach your fishing line to the kite ropes with clips.
✔ Your kite will carry the fishing line and bait away from you at a distance that can be varied.
✔ When the bite hits, you'll see your kite dip drastically.
✔ You'll then free your fishing line from the kite using the release clip.
✔ Then it's time to battle to your heart's content!
Kite fishing lets anglers:
Cover vast surface areas.
Work live bait from a boat or shore.
Access dangerous or previously inaccessible waters.
Present bait on or close to the watertops.
And this is all without an obvious fishing line in sight!
What can I target when kite fishing?
For many anglers, the real magic of kite fishing can only be experienced out on the open ocean. This means that this technique has become pretty synonymous with heading offshore to battle big game fish. Pelagic species in particular are a prime target, as kite fishing's bait presentation is pretty irresistible to these predators.
Kite fishing was first introduced in the US to Billfish anglers by fishing legend Captain Bob Lewis. His belief was that the lively bait presentation would attract these fish, while the practicalities would appeal to hardcore Billfish enthusiasts. Experienced anglers could multiply their chances of catching fish by flying up to three kites from their boats. Kite fishing for Billfish has endured to this day, with Sailfish being the primary target.
That's not all, though. Picture-perfect Mahi Mahi are also popular kite fishing targets, as they prefer to feed towards the top of the water column and are attracted to lively, thrashing bites. Then there's the sheer action and acrobatic leaps they provide when hooked. If you're going after Mahi, expect to encounter other pelagics such as Wahoo.
Tuna are also seriously fun to target with a kite, with Yellowfin, Blackfin, and Bluefin varieties all being drawn in by the thrashing bait this technique provides. If you thought watching a hooked Mahi Mahi leap out of the water as your kite flies high would take some beating, just wait until you see a 250+ lb Bluefin do the same thing!
Where can I go kite fishing?
The beauty of this technique is that, as long as you have the gear and access to a body of water, you can try it out pretty much anywhere. However, it's important to think about what fish you're planning on targeting and where you'll be casting your line. If you're looking to fish for Salmon in a skinny creek, for example, then kite fishing probably isn't the best technique. The weather can also have a big impact on the success of kite fishing.
Below, we've outlined some locations where kite fishing is seriously hot. If you're looking to give this technique a try and want to learn from the best, these are the places to put at the top of your list.
Florida's Pompano Beach
It's safe to say that Florida is number one when it comes to kite fishing in the US. The Sunshine State is uniquely positioned near the continental shelf and the Gulf Stream, where plenty of deep sea fish lurk. Miami and Pompano Beach are particularly popular places for kite fishing, with plenty of experienced local charter captains based here. Sailfish is the top target, but Mahi Mahi, Tuna, and Marlin also love to hit kite fishing baits.
Is the West Coast really the best coast? Well, when it comes to kite fishing, it can certainly give Florida a run for its money! It boasts plenty of big game fish hunting, with San Diego, California being the jewel in the crown when it comes to kite fishing charters. Dana Point is also a prime kite fishing location. And when it comes to the fish? It's all about Bluefin Tuna here.
Finally, the US's Gulf Coast deserves a mention too. This area boasts a wealth of oil rigs, which means one thing – lots of Yellowfin Tuna waiting to attack your kite fishing bait. The Tuna here are ridiculously large, and port towns such as Venice, Louisiana are the perfect departure points for heading out onto these deep waters, armed with your best kite fishing gear and plenty of determination.
Non-US Locations
Depending on who you ask, kite fishing either originated in Asia or Oceania, so it only makes sense that there are excellent hotspots located outside of the boundaries of North America. In New Zealand, for example, kite fishing from the beach has grown in popularity – and yes, you can still target big game fish! Marlin and Yellowfin Tuna are the main angling opponents here.
Head slightly west and you're in Australia, which is also home to a thriving kite fishing scene. Melbourne, in particular, has seen a surge of anglers opting to kite fish from boats, shorelines, and even on freshwater fisheries. Popular targets vary depending on where exactly you're fishing, but you won't be going after huge pelagics here. It's still plenty of fun, though!
Rounding off our list, halfway across the world, is Mexico. Cabo San Lucas boasts access to waters that are filled with Mahi Mahi, Marlin, and Sailfish. Puerto Vallarta and Nuevo Vallarta are also popular options thanks to the sheer number of kite fishing charters docked in these locations. Yellowfin Tuna inhabit the waters along Mexico's east coast, as well as Wahoo.
How can I go kite fishing?
Although it's one of the less conventional techniques out there, learning the basics of kite fishing is pretty simple. However, there are other factors that can affect how productive your day of fishing is, such as the weather and water conditions. Because of this – and because this technique can be a little fiddly to figure out right off the bat – chances are you'll likely first try it out alongside a local charter captain.
There are two main ways to go kite fishing: from a boat, or from shore. If you're fishing with a captain, you'll probably be fishing from a boat. In general, this is the most common way to try out kite fishing. Not only do you get a head start out on the waters, but you can also fish more than one kite from a vessel. This greatly increases your chances of a hook-up!
Trolling vs. Drifting
If you've had any big game angling experience, chances are you're already familiar with trolling. And if you're more of a freshwater fisher, you've probably done some drifting in your time. Never heard of either? No problem!
Basically, when kite fishing, you'll either be trolling or drifting. Trolling is when you drop lines in the water and move your boat forward so that your bait "drags" along the water. Drifting, on the other hand, relies on ample wind to move things along. Both techniques have their plus points and, depending on the time of year you're fishing, as well as weather and water conditions, you'll likely try out both techniques.
Whether you're trolling or drifting, most kite fishing trips take place on center consoles boats. This is because large sportfishing boats can block the wind. Kite fishing from them is possible, but you'll generally have better results from smaller boats. Lots of rod holders are important, as they'll let you set your kites in any direction.
What gear do I need?
A kite. Opt for a high-durability square kite, with carbon-graphite spars and tear-resistant fabric. Choose rugged material that can withstand some angling action!
A rod and reel. You'll want a rod that's about 3 feet long, paired with a kite reel to hold the line your kite is tethered to. A high-speed revolving spool reel with a 50–80 lb line will do the trick. You'll also want a rod around 7 feet for reeling in your target.
A balloon. Attach this to your kite, and it'll allow it to stay afloat even if it goes down when a fish bites or the wind drops. Pulling in a submerged, waterlogged kite is tough work!
Release clips. These work very much like release clips for trolling. The clip opens up when your fish bites, allowing you to battle it with a normal fishing rod and reel setup.
Terminal tackle. Weights, corks, and styrofoam markers to see which line is hooked up are all commonly used when kite fishing.
Live bait. Live bait is essential for kite fishing. Goggle eyes are the most popular choice, but they can be expensive. Cigar minnows, sardines, and blue runners will do the job well, too.
Backup kites. It's possible to lose or damage your kite due to underwater snags, the line breaking, letting your kite run free, and more. Backup options are a must!
How do I set my gear up?
No matter whether you're trolling, drifting, or fishing from shore, the setup you'll use for kite fishing is pretty similar. Take a look at our diagram below, which shows the most common way to set up your gear for kite fishing.
Kite Fishing: Unique Angling at Its Finest
If you're looking to try out a fishing technique that really can't be compared to any other, kite fishing is the way to go. There's something magical about reliving the nostalgia of flying a kite, while knowing that it may well just bring you the fish of a lifetime. And the bragging rights when you do catch something in this way? Well, let's just say they're unbeatable. In the words of Mary Poppins, let's go fly a kite – and battle some deep sea fish, too!

If you wish to fish with a kite, go to Kalae (South Point) Big Island of Hawaii or the Pali on South shore Maui or where the winds blow off shore on Oahu. For the first two spots, you will be rewarded with big catches of Ahi (Tuna), Marlin, Mahi Mahi and 100+ lbs. Ulua (Trevally). My Best Fishing buddy (Mark Pilgier) holds the un-official record for the biggest Ahi (Tuna) 260 lbs. caught from shore. We never bothered to get a true scale weight as the fish was cut up/divided up to all the surrounding fishermen and passing spectators, who were there.
Fishing with a kite can be very rewarding if done right? and if the winds die down, it can get very frustrating at the lost of gear that you will lose at times.
Just be sure to be respectful of your areas environment and other fisher persons, who maybe fishing there before your arrival to the spot your going to fish? Mahalo & Aloha! May the fishing gods be with you and Hana pa! Tight Lines….
