Joan Claret i Solé (Rajadell, 1932 - Caves, 6 de setembro de 2001) foi um professor universitário da Universidade de Toulouse e presidente do Centro Catalão de Toulouse. Era filho de Andreu Claret i Casadessús com Trinitat Solé e irmão do jornalista Andreu Claret i Serra, do violinista Gerard Claret i Serra e do violoncelista Lluís Claret i Serra. Ele teve três filhos Joan Melchior Claret, Boris Claret e Adrian Claret-Peréz.

Biografia
Fugindo da Guerra Civil Espanhola, a família se mudou para a França. Foi professor na Universidade de Toulouse e foi ativista da causa catalã e do Occitânio como presidente da Casa catalã de Toulouse. O presidente da Generalidade da Catalunha, Jordi Pujol i Soley, nomeou-o membro do Conselho das Comunidades Catalãs no exterior, onde participou da modernização dos centros catalães.

Em França, ele participou ativamente da descentralização da cultura, especialmente na Université de Toulouse le Mirail como vice-presidente, e em 1977, depois de criar e chefiar o Centro de Promoção Cultural, que mais tarde seria chamado de Centro da Iniciativa Artista do Mirail (CIAM). Em 1997, recebeu o Prêmio Batista i Roca por sua dedicação à promoção da cultura catalã no mundo.

Nas últimas eleições para o Parlamento Europeu, Claret concorreu como candidato nas listas da esquerda republicana da Catalunha. Recebeu a medalha póstuma da cidade de Toulouse e, em 2007, prestou uma homenagem ao seu trabalho em uma sala da Casa Occitânia.

Faleceu devido a uma doença em 2001 na comuna francesa de Caves.

Question: I'm not sure exactly what "Fearing the Lord" means. On your blog you speak a little on fearing the Lord but not in depth. What are your thoughts?
Many people in our generation believe that fear of the Lord simply means respect. The liberal, feel good theology of the last 50 years has been heavily focused on grace and mercy, and has widely espoused the "God is love" slogan. It is absolutely true that it is by God's grace alone that we are saved, and it is also absolutely true that God is love. However, an over emphasis of the "God is love" maxim fails to acknowledge that God has many characteristics of which loving, merciful, and graceful are just a few. God is also, equally just – meaning He absolutely cannot allow sin to go unpunished, jealous – meaning He is angered by any desire of man to put other things ahead of Him, and is also wrathful (Nahum 1:2). The combination of all of God's traits is what makes God what He ultimately is: above all, and in all things, God is Holy, Holy, Holy (Isaiah 6:3, Revelation 4:8). In the Hebrew language, a word repeated 3 times is the equivalent of 3 exclamation points in English. Read: God is HOLY!!! The Bible never says God is love, love, love…or merciful, merciful, merciful.
God IS love. I want to preface that this is absolutely true, and God's love is by no means being debated. God is actually the creator of love and the origin of true agape (Greek for unconditional covenant love). Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love (1 John 4:8). Just remember, God is not only love. God also has other characteristics that should be respected, and feared, in the literal sense of the word fear.
The word fear appears in the Bible 216 times from Genesis to Revelation. Many times the word fear appears alongside the word trembling. The first time fear and trembling appear is in Exodus, and the last time is in Philippians.
Phillipians 2:12 Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed–not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence–continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling.
If you believe fear means respect…I suppose if your respect takes you to the point of physical trembling…then that is the appropriate respect owed to God by the command of the verse above. But, trembling – defined as involuntary shaking as a result of anxiety and frailty – indicates to me that proper knowledge of the LORD provokes literal fear.
Isaiah's guilt is forgiven by the seraphim.
Look at the experience of any Biblical character who comes into the presence of God. Every one of them, upon first realization, falls straight down on their face and/or cries out that they are sinful and unworthy. Take for instance Isaiah, the holiest man in lsrael: (Isaiah 6:5) Isaiah said: "Woe is me! For I am undone; for I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts!." He breaks down and comes completely unglued in the presence of God simply because he has a dirty mouth. Then in the New Testament when Christ asks Simon Peter to follow Him, Peter falls down at Jesus' knees, saying, "Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord (Luke 5:8)." Then, in revelation when the Spirit raises John (the one whom Jesus loved) to see the risen Christ, John says, "When I saw him, I fell at his feet as though dead (Revelation 1:17). These are just a few examples…there are dozens more. The holiest of men fall to pieces at the feet of the LORD.
I once started working on a fire and brimstone sermon by Jesus. That may sound like an oxymoron to some, and may perhaps even offend others. I went about the task of compiling Christ's every reference to judgment, hell, and condemnation. My intent was to offer a demonstration that Jesus Christ did indeed preach fire and brimstone. I am acquainted with many people who have a strong aversion to hell, fire, and brimstone preaching, however I find it to be very important (in limited application), and believe there is a necessary balance between teaching grace, wrath, and every other personality trait of God. After spending several hours compiling many pages of condemning Jesus quotes I decided that what I was doing was a dangerous thing. After praying on it, and seeing how condemning the collection of verses was, I came to the conclusion that perhaps pulling Jesus' verses out of their original context could misrepresent Him. That's not a risk I want to take. The point of the matter is however, that Jesus did preach extensively on judgment and wrath. When you cut out the narrative and the softening analogies of the parables, and you merely examine the references and allusions to hell, death, and condemnation, it is exceedingly clear that, with absolute certainty, there will be harsh judgment (Matthew 25:41), the majority of people will burn in hell (Matthew 7:14), and there will be tremendous sorrow (weeping and gnashing of teeth – appears 7 times). We must present the LORD, unvarnished, for all the things His Word declares He is…not just the traits that work for us, that make us feel good, that make us like Him more, or that don't scare us. It is terrible folly to attempt to fit God within parameters that we dictate. Excluding wrath from our doctrine does not eliminate the wrath of God ("wrath" appears 215 times in the Bible) – rather it merely eliminates it from our consciousness. Prayerfully ponder the implications and consequences of that.
Christ said, "Fear not man who has the ability to kill the body. I shall tell you whom you should fear. Fear Him who after the body has been killed has the authority to cast you into hell (Luke 12:5)." The context of fear being expressed here is fear in the sense of suffering a violent death at the hands of another man. I don't know what earthly fear could be any more fearsome than the fear of a violent death (think of being stoned to death for preaching the gospel as Steven the martyr was – Acts 7:54). Jesus instructs here that the only fear greater than being brutally killed should be the fear of hell. This doesn't sound like Jesus is talking about respect. I don't think He's saying we respect death so we should respect Him. I think our natural instinct is to be terrified of death, and Jesus is saying here: Fear Me more! I can cast you into a violent, torturous Hell, the likes of which you cannot even fathom.
It is also important that we not fall into depending solely on the New Testament to define who the LORD is. Jesus Christ and the Father God are united in one essence, and Christ himself says that He is subservient to the will of the Father (John 6:38). Christ did not come into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world (John 3:17). However, Christ does clearly exhort that all must follow His teaching, or condemnation is coming for those who do not submit their lives to His service. If you read the Old Testament, where the Father God is the main character, you witness dozens of instances where the immutable, unchanging, LORD, annihilates all who would rebel and put anything ahead of Him. We must remember Jesus Christ and God the Father are one and the same God in the Holy Trinity. God does not change. He was perfect from the beginning, and it is not possible to change or improve upon perfection. He is not a God who is growing, learning, becoming more progressive, inclusive, or open minded. He has not improved upon His perfection since His Old Testament days. No. God is unchanged. Therefore, we must understand God is still the same sovereign God who punishes treason and administers wrath to rebels. Non-believers, those not secure in salvation, unrepentant sinners, and those lukewarm in their subservience to Christ have much to fear.
Proverbs 9:10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.
31 It is a terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
We cannot varnish the truth of God's character. A focus solely citing portions of the Bible that portray the Lord as "gentle Jesus meek and mild," does not eliminate the mass of scripture that promises coming judgment and wrath for the non-believer, the self-righteous, and the unrepentant sinner. I implore everyone, get to know Jesus Christ as the lamb. He came to the world as a lamb to serve and suffer the punishment of His followers' sin – offering forgiveness in His kindness and compassion. When we give the LORD control He is quick to forgive. When we reject the LORD we bring His wrath upon ourselves.
Now is the time to get right with the Lord. He has extended the invitations. A day will come when that invitation will no longer stand. Christ has promised that when He returns He is not coming back as a lamb, but he is coming as a lion (Revelation 5:5). When He returns He will not come to serve or suffer. He will come to judge the quick and the dead (2 Timothy 4:1).
Psalm 2:11 Serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice with trembling. 12 Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and you perish in the way, for his wrath is quickly kindled. Blessed are all who take refuge in him.
This Thursday, May 2, is National Day of Prayer. The purpose is to mobilize prayer in America and to encourage personal repentance and righteousness in the culture. A nation coming together in prayer is powerful, biblical, and is one of the ways we can come together as the body of Christ to honor the LORD. Many times in the Bible when a nation was in judgment, The LORD relented when the nation came together in repentance and sought Him. Our nation is facing pivotal challenges in the battle for Christian morality, the battle against atheism and Christian apathy, and the growing oppression of religious free speech. Let us come together in prayer to ask that God would continue to bless our country.
Romans 1:21 For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools…24 Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, 25 because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the created rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen.
We can see the evidence of this in our nation today. One way God punishes people's disobedience is by turning away and leaving us to pursue our own sinful desires, letting us reap the consequences of our actions.
Romans 1 cont. 26 For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; 27 and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error. 28 And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done. 29 They were filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil, covetousness, malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, 31 foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless. 32 Though they know God's righteous decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them.
The above mentioned iniquities have been increasingly afflicting our nation in recent years. Note the last line, in the name of tolerance and acceptance we are increasingly supportive of what the Bible outlines as sinful acts. In some cases our political leaders, and some in the church are even fighting for them. Additionally the media continues to offer more and more support to terrorists and public shooters by offering them the fame they desire in the national news. We further fuel this with our viewership.
29 When the crowds were increasing, he began to say, "This generation is an evil generation. It seeks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah. 30 For as Jonah became a sign to the people of Nineveh, so will the Son of Man be to this generation. 32 The men of Nineveh will rise up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, something greater than Jonah is here.
3 So Jonah arose and went to Nineveh, according to the word of the Lord. Now Nineveh was an exceedingly great city,[a] three days' journey in breadth.[b] 4 Jonah began to go into the city, going a day's journey. And he called out, "Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown!" 5 And the people of Nineveh believed God. They called for a fast and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them to the least of them.
This generation, the age of the Christians, has received the sign of Jonah…we have been told how we are to serve the LORD. For our government to know and believe, we the people must first demonstrate that we believe…as the Ninevites did.
Thursday night The Merrell Center in Katy will be hosting a prayer event. http://www.ndpwesthouston.org/. I strongly encourage all to attend, or to find an event in your area! This is a pivotal time in the future of our nation! I love you all and hope to be praying alongside you this Thursday!

Building a successful future for ECM in the cloud.
ECM is a leading construction and maintenance company servicing the energy, oil, gas, infrastructure, and mining industries. Based in Western Australia, ECM is considered one of Australia's premier Electrical and Instrumentation (E&I) contractors and has diversified into Structural, Mechanical and Piping (SMP), Telecommunications and even the green energy space.
As the mining and construction industries have boomed in Western Australia, so has business for ECM. Over the past seven years, they have grown from a $70M company to a $300M company.
Prior to entering into the cloud space, ECM chose to move to a hosted data centre. Over the following few years, with a significant investment in their data centre, ECM's IT department believed the existing solution reached its expected capacity. Throughout their time leveraging their on-premises and hosted data centre, their team realised that using virtualised machines in a hosted data centre was not sustainable to support the company's growth.
ECM was faced with a choice to either expand their existing technical estate, or look for another solution. As cloud services in Australia matured, the Capital Expenditure vs. Operational Expenditure benefits became clearer with a move to the cloud. ECM decided it was time to leverage cloud based services and computing.
With the promise of a scalable solution at lower prices, ECM decided to migrate all applications and services to Amazon Web Services (AWS) and needed a partner to help them.
With ECM being based in Western Australia, DSG was not their initial preference. However, after their local vendor failed to deliver the recommended AWS design and implementation, ECM leveraged AWS' partner network and contacted DSG for assistance in migrating to AWS.
"If we didn't reach those dates we would have had to renew our contract with the data centre. Every month we delayed was going to cost us.
As an Amazon Web Services (AWS) Managed Services Partner, DSG immediately made a set of recommendations based on AWS best practice, and provided the business case to get key stakeholders across these changes. Getting straight to work, DSG's team quickly scrapped the existing AWS Foundation, and deployed a Foundation reflective of AWS best practices and the cloud's flexibility.
Given the tight timeframes, DSG developed a flexible plan that allowed them to migrate and do user acceptance testing on the fly.
By using an Agile approach, DSG was able to deliver the project in time.
In moving to the cloud, ECM expected improvements to their flexibility and IT costs, and they weren't disappointed.
"There is a whole lot of flexibility from the DSG and AWS solution that we just didn't have in on-premises," explains Roberts.
The overall result has been a 36% saving on their overall IT costs.
On his experiences with DSG, Roberts says, "I can't recommend them enough.
Their dedication to the project, to getting the right solutions was excellent. They worked with us to get us the best possible solution. They're not just working for themselves to make money.
There was constant communication. Any queries, problems or risks the guys would raise it straight away. And when they raised a risk, they weren't just coming to us with problems, they were coming to us with thought-out solutions which helped save time.

Hana and Alice (2004)
October 6, 2013 by nas3n75
Discussing what to do with a potential amnesiac…
Memory is something that can be very hard to verify. It's exactly that fact that Hana takes advantage of in Iwai Shunji's Hana and Alice (花とアリス, hana to arisu 2004).
Hana and Alice is the odd girl-meets-boy story where Hana (Anne Suzuki) convinces Miyamoto Masashi (Kaku Tomohiro) that he is an amnesiac who is her boyfriend after he hits his head. It doesn't take long before Hana's frienship with Arisugawa "Alice" Tetsuko (Aoi Yu) gets tested when Miyamoto starts to fall for the latter.
Hana and Alice has a trait that I find common to many of my favorite Japanese movies in that it is ultimately very light on plot. I was generally too busy admiring the beauty of the "here and now" to really keep track of where the story was actually going, which shouldn't be a surprise since Hana and Alice came from the same brains behind 1995's Love Letter. That stemmed from the fact that the movie had a very "slice-of-life" way of storytelling. Hana pursued Miyamoto, but there was still an entire world going on around them, such as Alice getting scouted by a talent agency to be a model or the upcoming high school festival.
Like in Love Letter, Iwai treats us to some gorgeously composed scenes. I'm biased toward movies that make snow beautiful, as Love Letter did, but I felt Hana and Alice actually succeeded in making rain appealing in the scene where Hana was out buying food for Miyamoto. Part of me almost believes that Iwai initially wanted to make a movie about ballet students as Hana and Alice came with some absolutely awe-inspiring dance sequences, particularly toward the end when Alice demonstrated her ability in front of a fashion shoot coordinator (Hirosue Ryoko at a time when Wasabi was still fresh in everyone's minds).
I was fooled by the fact that she was put under an unfortunate amount of makeup and shared half her scenes with Takei Emi in Rurouni Kenshin, but Aoi Yu was without a doubt a phenomenally beautiful girl in a way that reminded me of Ozu regular Hara Setsuko (who appeared in movies like 1961's The End of Summer). I felt that both she and Suzuki acted naturally, and that was in no small part due to the script. I liked that Iwai simply let the movie go in a way that reminds me of Wong Kar-Wai's In the Mood for Love. That is to say, it didn't even feel like Aoi or Suzuki or any of the other actors or actresses were acting or constrained to a plot in any way because the movie just flowed. Nothing felt forced.
That said, Hana and Alice also succeeded where Piano (once again, what I call Real Life of a Middle School Girl: The Anime) failed, in that the title characters were perfectly capable of holding the movie up without a real story to fall back on. I will admit the movie has the potential of boring your typical American audience member to sleep, but it was like Love Letter to me, only better. That is to say, it was a minimalist romantic comedy that succeeded in the areas that mattered to me and thus takes its place among my favorite Japanese movies.

North Wales Police wanted to renew their facilities to improve their delivery of policing to the wider community. We were brought in to assess the new needs of the station and create an operational hub for the Force.
The station serves the island of Anglesey, but a recent estates review carried out by the North Wales Division identified a need for services that were designed to benefit police officers and the wider community, enabling the force to better deliver 21st century policing.
Initially a central hub was proposed but during design development, it was discovered that a Hub scheme wouldn't be the most effective or efficient model.
We worked closely with the policing team to redefine the brief to feature a new police station, replacing existing leased premises and facilitating centralization of the three smaller stations.
One of the major considerations we undertook was to make sure the new building provides flexible accommodation for agile working, combining operational and welfare facilities.
We revised the brief several times during the project, adjusting the layout to create a local space for the Probation Service. This was comfortably incorporated without pushing back timescales or changing the budget.
The project was developed with a high sustainability agenda and the new building houses gas absorption heat pumps, rainwater harvesting and photovoltaic cells. It's been designed to maximise the use of natural daylight and includes a high-level of thermal insulation. These features combine with low air-permeability to minimise energy consumption and optimise the building's green credentials.

Historic Sites of Manitoba: Transcona Sewage Lift Station (Plessis Road, Winnipeg)
The "Witch's Hut", as it is referred to by locals, was constructed in 1915 and designed by W. M. Scott. Closing in 1977, it pumped local sewage into the Red River from a large pit located some 25 feet underground. The four columns that look like chimneys served as vents to allow the sewer gas to escape from the 40-foot diameter pit.
This pump station was the finale of a $215,000 water system project during a tremendous population boom in Transcona. Once complete, the town council announced it would no longer collect outhouse waste, and thereby established a flat rate for water of $2.00 quarterly for every house.
This structure was retired in 1988 by the Waterworks, Waste and Disposal Department, and turned over for restoration and ongoing upkeep to the Parks and Recreation Department.

Download Accelerator Plus (DAP), Internet Download Manager (IDM) and Orbit are few of the well known download accelerators available for Windows. If you are trying to download files from HTTP or FTP links, these tools provide seamless download speeds. But when you need to download files from online file hosting services as free user or if you need to download a video from services like YouTube, most of these download managers fail miserably.
jDownloader is one amazing download manager, which can handle such scenarios smoothly. jDownloader is a free, open source, cross-platform download accelerator which I consider as one of the most intelligent downloader of all times. Some of the reasons that make it a smart download manager are listed below, but before we proceed, I would suggest you to download jDownloader on your computer.
Note: JDownloader requires Java Runtime Environment (jre/jdk) 1.5 or higher. Therefore, you need to install the latest Java version if you don't have it already.
Here are some of the jDownloader features that struck a chord with me. Check them out and tell us if they lead you to dump your present download manager of choice.
You can automatically bypass adfly or any other such ad links with jDownloader easily. When you add links (single or multiple) that are masked with adfly URL shorter, the tool automatically redirects all the links to the download page and gives you the final download page in the link grabber section.
That's not all, it even checks if the file is available online to download or if it's been taken down from the serves. Once you get an online confirmation, you can continue with the download.
When you add a YouTube video link to jDownloader, it parses it and displays all the available formats for you to download. You can download any one of the available qualities in FLV or MP4 format. The downloader also gives the MP3 link in case you want to download just the audio track.
jDownloader is the best download manager if you download files from the online file hosting services like Hotfiles and MediaFire. For a free user, all you need to do is provide the link to the page. The downloader will automatically detect the host and will ask you to accept its TOS. If the host has captcha authentication, jDownloader will provide it to you in the program itself.
Just add your files in the queue and the downloader will take over from there. For users who have a premium account, they can provide their login credentials under Premium—>Premium Settings. jDownloader will automatically log you in while downloading the file and download as a premium user.
If you have to download large files that's split in parts, you can add all the links in batch. You can either paste the links under Link—>Add links—>Add URL(s), or you could paste them in a text file and import it into jDownloader using Link—>Add links—>Add container.
If you are downloading large files like movies or games that have been split into parts using file-splitters or WINRAR, the tool will automatically extract and merge the files after all the parts have been downloaded successfully.
So try out the jDownloader next time you are planning to download a file. Although the downloader is designed for downloading files from online hosting services, you can use it as your default download manager to download any files online. Do try out the tool and share your views in the comments section.
Initially, Google Assistant was exclusive to the in-house Pixel phones.

Some of you may have noticed the lack of podcasts over the last month. If you listened to the last one you'll know that my father passed away last month. I've been dealing with his estate and related matters for the last month and things are finally starting to feel like they are getting done. Add to that, the fact that November and December are the busiest months of the year for my company and I you'll see why I've hardly a moment to myself since early November.
Things are starting to settle down, Christmas is over, the list of things I need to deal with for my dads estate is getting shorter ,,, it won't be long till I have a little free time again and I can start podcasting once more. I'm looking forward to getting back to the podcast, I have a lot to talk about and show you guys.
So, hang on … I'll be back soon.

Andy Griffith: A life in music
By Lauren Moraski
July 4, 2012 / 9:58 AM / CBS News
Actor Andy Griffith as North Carolina Gov. Beverly Perdue is sworn into office on Jan. 10, 2009, at the State Library building in Raleigh, N.C. JIM BOUNDS
(CBS News) Andy Griffith was probably best known as Sheriff Andy Taylor on the "The Andy Griffith Show," but the actor, who died Tuesday, got his start in music. It became a thread throughout his more than half-century career.

Pictures: Andy Griffith remembered
As a child, Griffith sang and played slide trombone in the band at Grace Moravian Church in Mount Airy, N.C. He graduated with a music degree from University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill before landing a job teaching high school music.
Griffith flexed his music skills in 1958 in Broadway's "Destry Rides Again," earning him a Tony nomination for best actor in a musical. He also sang in the 1957 film, "A Face in the Crowd," in which he portrayed a jailbird and amateur vocalist.
In the long-running CBS series, "The Andy Griffith Show," Griffith could be heard singing in several episodes.
"Music was always important to our show," Griffith said in a 1998 interview in conjunction with The Television Academy Foundation. "Don [Knotts] and I sang a lot together, you know ... We would sing hymns in the jail while we were dusting, sweeping and different things."
Through the years, Griffith put out albums featuring country and gospel music. He recorded a version of "The Andy Griffith Show" theme song with the original lyrics under the title "The Fishin' Hole." It's to the tune of the series' catchy whistle-only opening, which was not performed by Griffith. The song's co-writer, Earle Hagen, whistled the famous TV theme song.
Griffith's love for music continued on "Matlock," too. He could be heard singing on various episodes of the legal drama, which aired from 1986-1995.
In 1996, he released "I Love to Tell the Story - 25 Timeless Hymns," an album of gospel songs, which won a Grammy in the category of best Southern gospel, country gospel or bluegrass gospel album.
More musical honors followed. In 1999, Griffith was inducted into the Country Gospel Music Hall of Fame, and in 2007, he entered the Christian Music Hall of Fame and Museum.
And only four years ago, the North Carolina native teamed with country singer Brad Paisley on the video for Paisley's single "Waitin' on a Woman." It went on to win the Country Music Association award for video of the year. Watch it below:

They Made a Promise is an independent online project designed to document and monitor promises made by politicians in the United Kingdom. Our mission is to make politics and politicians more accountable.
In the run-up to the UK General Election on 7 May 2015, we compiled the key campaign promises made by each major party. We will now turn to monitoring the performance of a majority Conservative government.
We ask our users to get involved and help us hold politicians to account by submitting new promises we may have missed, reviewing the ones already monitored, voting in favour of promises they support, and spreading the word about this project on social media.
Politicians will promise just about anything to get elected. Unfortunately, as we know all too well, most of these pledges are consistently forgotten and broken, swept under the rug until the next election cycle.
We aim to create a platform where political promises can be closely examined, debated and tracked, enabling our readers to judge politicians on whether they actually deliver on their pledges.
To learn more about this project, please read our Editor's Introduction.
Politicians make a lot of promises…
1. When a promise is submitted by our readers or editors, its details are checked for accuracy.
2. We use publicly available information and primary sources, such as direct quotes from politicians and their manifestos.
3. The promise is then added to our archive, along with its sources and any relevant updates.
We need to make sure they deliver…
4. Unless a specific timeframe has been proposed by the politician, the promise's "deadline" will be the end of term in office.
5. The initial status of a promise is set to either Monitoring or If Elected, in which case monitoring will begin when and if the politician is elected.
6. As we monitor the promises, we will post regular updates. We encourage our readers to get involved by voting In Favour or Against individual promises, submitting comments, progress reports and other relevant information. Your input will help to establish which promises matter most!
And hold to account those who do not!
7. Readers will be invited to vote on whether the promise is likely to be, or has been, Kept or Broken.
8. For Broken promises, we will attempt to inform the politician in question via email or on social media.
9. For particularly important Broken promises, we will either launch a petition, or contribute our data to an existing campaign.
Illustrations for this website were produced by Peter Anthony King (PAK), a brilliant cartoonist whose work has been featured in Punch, Private Eye, Readers Digest, New Statesman, Spectator, The Oldie and other leading publications.
These caricatures pay tribute to the unique and rich tradition of British political cartoons.
From William Hogarth's social satire of 18th century London and the sophisticated humour of Punch, to Gerald Scarfe's famous opening title sequence for "Yes, Minister" and "Yes, Prime Minister", political cartoons have inspired intellectual debate and served as a vehicle for political agitation and criticism.
We could not think of a better visual background to what They Made a Promise is hoping to achieve.

SBIR-STTR Guidelines for Participation
Office Of Management and Budget-Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements, for Federal Awards.
This final guidance supersedes and streamlines requirements from OMB circulars a–21, a–87, a–110, and a–122 (which have been placed in OMB guidances); circulars a–89, a–102, and a–133; and the guidance in circular a–50 on single audit act follow-up. future reform efforts may eventually seek to incorporate the cost principles for hospitals in department of health and human services regulations. copies of the OMB circulars that are superseded by this guidance are available on omb's web site at https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/omb/circulars_default/. the final guidance consolidates the guidance previously contained in the aforementioned citations into a streamlined form that aims to improve both the clarity and accessibility. this final guidance is located in title 2 of the code of federal regulations.
Applicability Date: This guidance is applicable for Federal agencies December 26, 2013 and applicable for non-Federal entities as described in this guidance
§ 200.110 Effective/Applicability Date
(a) The standards set forth in this Part which affect administration of Federal awards issued by Federal agencies become effective once implemented by Federal agencies or when any future amendment to this Part becomes final. Federal agencies must implement the policies and procedures applicable to Federal awards by promulgating a regulation to be effective by December 26, 2014 unless different provisions are required by statute or approved by OMB.
(b) The standards set forth in Subpart F—Audit Requirements of this Part and any other standards which apply directly to Federal agencies will be effective December 26, 2013 and will apply to audits of fiscal years beginning on or after December 26, 2014
§ 200.413 Direct Costs
(a) General. Direct costs are those costs that can be identified specifically with a particular final cost objective, such as a Federal award, or other internally or externally funded activity, or that can be directly assigned to such activities relatively easily with a high degree of accuracy. Costs incurred for the same purpose in like circumstances must be treated consistently as either direct or indirect (F&A) costs. See also § 200.405 Allocable costs.
(b) Application to Federal awards. Identification with the Federal award rather than the nature of the goods and services involved is the determining factor in distinguishing direct from indirect (F&A) costs of Federal awards. Typical costs charged directly to a Federal award are the compensation of employees who work on that award, their related fringe benefit costs, the costs of materials and other items of expense incurred for the Federal award. If directly related to a specific award, certain costs that otherwise would be treated as indirect costs may also include extraordinary utility consumption, the cost of materials supplied from stock or services rendered by specialized facilities or other institutional service operations.
(c) The salaries of administrative and clerical staff should normally be treated as indirect (F&A) costs. Direct charging of these costs may be appropriate only if all of the following conditions are met:
(1) Administrative or clerical services are integral to a project or activity;
(2) Individuals involved can be specifically identified with the project or activity;
(3) Such costs are explicitly included in the budget or have the prior written approval of the Federal awarding agency; and
(4) The costs are not also recovered as indirect costs.
(d) Minor items. Any direct cost of minor amount may be treated as an indirect (F&A) cost for reasons of practicality where such accounting treatment for that item of cost is consistently applied to all Federal and non-Federal cost objectives.
§ 200.414 Indirect (F&A) Costs
(a) Facilities and Administration Classification. For major Institutions of Higher Education (IHEs) and major nonprofit organizations, indirect (F&A) costs must be classified within two broad categories: "Facilities" and "Administration." "Facilities" is defined as depreciation on buildings, equipment and capital improvement, interest on debt associated with certain buildings, equipment and capital improvements, and operations and maintenance expenses. "Administration" is defined as general administration and general expenses such as the director's office, accounting, personnel and all other types of expenditures not listed specifically under one of the subcategories of "Facilities" (including cross allocations from other pools, where applicable). For nonprofit organizations, library expenses are included in the "Administration" category; for institutions of higher education, they are included in the "Facilities" category. Major IHEs are defined as those required to use the Standard Format for Submission as noted in Appendix III to Part 200—Indirect (F&A) Costs Identification and Assignment, and Rate Determination for Institutions of Higher Education (IHEs) paragraph C. 11. Major nonprofit organizations are those which receive more than $10 million dollars in direct Federal funding.
General Provisions for Selected Items of Cost
§ 200.420 Considerations for Selected Items of Cost
This section provides principles to be applied in establishing the allowability of certain items involved in determining cost, in addition to the requirements of Subtitle II. Basic Considerations of this subpart. These principles apply whether or not a particular item of cost is properly treated as direct cost or indirect (F&A) cost. Failure to mention a particular item of cost is not intended to imply that it is either allowable or unallowable; rather, determination as to allowability in each case should be based on the treatment provided for similar or related items of cost, and based on the principles described in § 200.402 Composition of costs through 200.411 Adjustment of previously negotiated indirect (F&A) cost rates containing unallowable costs. In case of a discrepancy between the provisions of a specific Federal award and the provisions below, the Federal award governs. Criteria outlined in § 200.403 Factors affecting allowability of cost must be applied in determining allowability. See also § 200.102 Exceptions.
§ 200.453 Materials and Supplies Costs, Including Costs of Computing Devices
(a) Costs incurred for materials, supplies, and fabricated parts necessary to carry out a Federal award are allowable.
(b) Purchased materials and supplies must be charged at their actual prices, net of applicable credits. Withdrawals from general stores or stockrooms should be charged at their actual net cost under any recognized method of pricing inventory withdrawals, consistently applied. Incoming transportation charges are a proper part of materials and supplies costs.
(c) Materials and supplies used for the performance of a Federal award may be charged as direct costs. In the specific case of computing devices, charging as direct costs is allowable for devices that are essential and allocable, but not solely dedicated, to the performance of a Federal award.
(d) Where federally-donated or furnished materials are used in performing the Federal award, such materials will be used without charge.

After a series of appeals and remands, the Court of Appeals affirmed the Commission's determination that Sclafani, a police officer, sustained a compensable injury by accident when he injured his left shoulder during a four-hour afternoon training session.* During that session, the claimant's activities included being put on the ground and handcuffed, picked up, and moved away.
The Supreme Court disagreed with the reasoning of the Court of Appeals, noting that the Court of Appeals seems to establish a "bright line rule that a four hour time period is sufficiently temporally precise to establish a compensable injury under the Act."
The Supreme Court found that asserting that an injury occurred over a four hour time period where multiple potential causative events occurred is not enough to establish compensability.
The Supreme Court found that the proper focus should not be on the specific time frame in which the accident occurred, but on the specific event that caused the injury.
In Sclafani, the Supreme Court affirmed the award of benefits to the claimant, but noted that the lower courts had reached the right result for the wrong reason.
The Supreme Court found that there was evidence that the claimant's pain began after he was "picked up a little weird," and that he attributed his injury to that specific event. The Supreme Court noted that the employer did not present evidence to rebut the claimant's testimony that the injury occurred as a result of that specific event.
The Supreme Court found that the evidence that the pain began when the claimant was picked up on this occasion established a compensable injury by accident and justifies the award of benefits, as opposed to the lower courts' incorrect finding that it was a result of the four hour training session.
It is important to note that the Court specified that this opinion does not reverse Van Buren. In Van Buren, a firefighter was awarded benefits when he injured his shoulder during a forty-five minute period spent removing a large man from a shower. In a footnote of the Sclafani Opinion, the Court notes that the facts in Van Buren established a single causative event over a period of time, as opposed to numerous discrete events (such as in Sclafani).
* Originally, the Commission found that the claimant sustained an injury by accident during his eight hours of training during the workday. The Court of Appeals found that 8 hours (with a lunch break in the middle) did not constitute a distinct period during which an injury by accident could occur (specifically finding that it lacked 'sufficient temporal precision'), and remanded the matter to the Commission for a finding that the injury occurred during the 4 hour afternoon training session that occurred after the lunch break.
Practical Tip
When assessing cases, it is important to:
Establish details regarding the period of time at issue;
Identify what activities took place over that period of time; and,
Determine whether the injury is attributed to a specific action/event versus generally attributed to all activities undertaken during the relevant period of time.

Dental implants are artificial root replacements that can be added as part of prosthetic dentistry in order to replace a lost tooth. Frequently the result is not simply an improved smile but a more youthful appearance as missing teeth can cause the face to collapse which can make you look older.
The length of the procedure depends on a variety of factors, including the width and height of available bone, the type of implant being considered and the quality of bone. Sometimes an implant treatment can be performed in a single day; other times, it can take three to six months. Speak to a member of our team on 020 3740 1404 to discuss the likely length of your treatment.
Many patients ask the team at Hockerill Dental why implants are advisable over treatments such as dentures, bridges and conventional crowns. Not only do they feel and look like normal teeth, they function like them too and do not create any difficulties while eating or brushing your teeth. Implants can also be used alongside other restorative procedures for extra effectiveness and can be used to give removable dentures a firmer grip.
It is completely understandable for patients to have concerns and questions about getting implants. The team at Smile Dental Plans can advise you on the best treatments for you. Call us on 020 3740 1404.


In-kennel enrichment greatly benefits PACC dogs, as they spend up to 23 hours a day in their kennels. Stress levels increase the longer they stay in a shelter setting.
PACC takes in thousands of kittens every year. We are especially slammed during the summer months with orphaned, infant kitties.
Since our successful campaign earlier in October, Sooey's surgery for both palettes is now scheduled for later this month. Thank you to those who gave to this cause. We will keep everyone updated on her progress.
Memphis is a 15 year old dog who was brought into PACC when his owner passed away. PACC doctors saw that Memphis still had life left in him and wanted to find him a comfortable home to live out his retirement.
Shima had been waiting at PACC since early August. She came to the shelter with an enlarged kidney, and thanks to the community's support, PACC's doctors were able to perform surgery and save her life.
Roo, a spunky and sweet Chihuahua born without front legs, was one of 40 small dogs Pima Animal Care Center rescued from a hoarding house last year.
Parvo Pups – With the help of Friends (like you) of PACC, we saved dozens of puppies with Parvovirus this summer — thank you! Parvo, which is preventable by a relatively inexpensive vaccine, is a highly contagious virus that causes diarrhea, vomiting and dehydration. Without prompt treatment, it is deadly.
Last year, on Arizona Gives Day, more than 300 friends of PACC supported our efforts to purchase a dental x-ray machine for our county shelter. Since then, you've helped PACC save the lives of nearly 200 dogs and cats.
