MILLION-TO-ONE CHANCE SAVES FACTORY
STORE ROOM filled with highly explosive nitro-cotton was completely destroyed in a fire at Donald MacPherson Ltd., a paint and varnish factory in Belgrave Road, Mitcham, last week.
A worker in a nearby factory, Permo, saw smoke and raised the alarm before any serious damage was done.
He was 25-year-old John Payne, Garden Avenue, Mitcham. He, with other workers at Permo, were doing overtime when they heard an explosion. Mr. Payne ran to the window, saw smoke coming from the factory and ran to phone the fire brigade.
Four tenders fought for more than an hour to get the blaze under control. They confined it to the store room, but other buildings in both factories were damaged by heat and smoke.
Stored in special room Mr. R. L. Frost, manager of MacPhersons, said: "The nitrocotton is stored in a special room with nine-inch thick walls and a steel door. It had the effect of a fireplace and saved any serious damage being done, although I think this will cost about £1,000."
Mr. C. A. Richardson, managing director of Permo, said: "There was only a small amount of paint scorching on one of our vans and some glass broken.
"It could have been quite a blaze and it was fortunate that our staff was on overtime. But it was a chance in a million for we rarely do overtime here," he added.
The nitro-cotton is used for making cellulose lacquers.

Cock Chimney Factory in Batsworth Road
A local landmark in Batsworth Road, off Church Road, Mitcham. It is possible it may have been built in mid 19th century. The land was sold to London Borough of Merton in late 1960s, and the area is now occupied by a trading estate.
The firm of Donald Macpherson occupied the site until 1969, and the chimney had their brand 'Foochow' in letters running down the side of the chimney. Macpherson was started in 1884 as a paint, varnish and Chinese lacquer business, based in Manchester. The company's telegram address was 'Foochow, Manchester'.
From Grace's Guide to British Industrial History
Macphersons Trade Paints became part of the Crown Paints Group in 2008.
The chimney was first mentioned in Croydon Advertiser and East Surrey Reporter – Saturday 17 August 1889 from the British Newspaper Archive (subscription required)
Fatal Fall from a Chimney.
—An inquest was held at the Mortuary on Saturday last before Mr. R. D. Muir, deputy coroner, and a jury, concerning the death of Thomas H. Haslam, 25, Cow Cross-street, St. Luke's, an engineer's fitter. It appeared that on the previous Thursday the deceased, with a labourer, was sent to some repairs to what is known the "Cock" chimney at a varnish factory in Church-lane, and, having engaged lodgings at 15, Holmwood-road, proceeded to inspect the shaft.
Having ascended to some considerable height, deceased by some means lost his hold and fell with great force to the bottom.
Medical aid was summoned, and the man removed to his lodgings, where expired the same night.
The jury having viewed the body and having heard the medical and other evidence, and the Deputy-Coroner very carefully summed up, a verdict of "Accidental Death" was returned.
Donald Macpherson co. Ltd., Cock Chimney Works, Mitcham (paint manufacturers), require the following clerical staff: 2 Invoice Clerks. Order Clerks, Shorthand-Typists, Telephone Operator; good post-war prospects, possibility of advancement. Please reply to the above address or telephone for appointment, Mitcham 2963.

Town Planning and Development Committee
1266. COCK CHIMNEY WORKS, BATSWORTH ROAD, MITCHAM
– The Borough Surveyor reported that the Cock Chimney Works, which occupied four detached sites in Batsworth Road and Chapel Road comprising a total area of approximately 1.56 acres, had been offered for sale to the Council. He explained that the works were situated in an area allocated primarily for industrial use in the Initial Development Plan, but which had been re-allocated primarily for residential use in the First Review of the Plan now before the Minister of Housing and Local Government. He reported: —
(i) that the works were within an area at present being studied with a view to environmental improvement and adjoined other property which had been purchased by the Council, or its predecessors. for ultimate redevelopment for residential purposes;
(ii) that, to implement planning objectives in the area, the acquisition of the works had to be firstly considered from a town planning point of view and secondly as a prospective housing site; and
(iii) upon the estimated cost of acquiring other properties in the neighbourhood to form a viable site for residential redevelopment and on the likely housing gain which would be achieved.
Resolved – That the Borough Surveyor be authorised to negotiate terms for the purchase of the Cock Chimney Works and requested to report further to a subsequent meeting.

Journal Editors and Conflicts of Interest
A recent story in the Milwaukee-Wisconsin Journal Sentinel points to what seems like a new kind of potential conflict of interest in medicine. We've published various stories on conflicts of interest in medicine and research before more than once — stories about ghostwriting, <a href="
http://www.researchethics.ca/blog/2008/12/publishing-and-subtleties-of-conflict.html” target="_blank">asking authors to declare potential conflicts of interest, about med schools tightening up their conflict of interest policies, a story on how personal relationships between drug reps and physicians and most recently, a story the appointment of a Pfizer VP to CIHR's Governing Council. But this time, the story focuses on someone in a different role with a clear conflict of interest — a journal editor.
Thomas Zdeblick, a University of Wisconsin orthopedic surgeon, took over as editor-in-chief of The Journal of Spinal Disorders and Techniques in 2002 while he was working with Medtronic (which he continued to do) in developing, researching and patenting spinal implants. And making millions of dollars in royalties for the patented spinal implants that he then wrote about and published in a number of articles over the last seven years, all published in his own journal.
Here's a link to the story, in the Milwaukee Sentinel: Journal editor gets royalties as articles favor devices
It would be the beginning of a beautiful friendship.
In the years to come, Zdeblick would receive more than $20 million in patent royalties from Medtronic for spinal implants sold by the company. And the medical journal he edited would become a conduit for positive research articles involving Medtronic spinal products, a Journal Sentinel analysis found.
Dozens of studies that mentioned Medtronic products have been published while Zdeblick has been editor. But in issue after issue, readers of the journal were not told that he was receiving millions of dollars in royalty payments from Medtronic at the same time.
Most of the time the articles, including some co-authored by Zdeblick himself about devices for which he gets royalties, had good things to say about the Medtronic products. Only on a small number of occasions did the articles find major problems with Medtronic devices.
It's clear that Zdeblick had a conflict of interest and that he was not forthright with readers about this conflict, both in his role as author and his role as editor — according to the article, his relationship with Medtronic was not disclosed in any articles or editorials. Certainly, journals do and should ask authors to declare any potential conflict of interest. And it's obvious that having a vested financial interest in the success of a device should put up a red flag for anyone assessing the author's ability to be objective about such a device. But that role — assessing the author's objectivity and asking questions about relationships — is really the role of an editor along with an editorial board and assigned reviewers. But according to the Sentinel, Zdeblick never declared his relationship with Medtronic and it seems, until now, no one asked.
While there has been plenty of discussion over potential conflicts of interest for authors and researchers, little attention has been paid to editors of journals who have a great deal of control over what research gets published. The representative for Wolters Kluwer (who publishes the journal) and the rep for Medtronic, both cited in the article, feel that there is no need for concern though. Their reassurance, however, is based on the claim that the journal is "independent and peer reviewed" through "strict processes". Processes which are controlled by the editor-in-chief, who also happens to have co-authored a number of the articles, etc. etc.
Unfortunately, it seems like it's hardly news anymore when a conflict like this is revealed. In this case, while it seems unique as we're highlighting a journal editor instead of say, a researcher or an author, it's the same theme time and time again. Lack of transparency and accountability. No one asking the obvious questions. In this case, one is left wondering about the roles of the editorial board and the reviewers who would have encountered and reviewed article after article, co-authored by the editor-in-chief, about Medtronic spinal implants. It seems like no one had any backbone, until now, to ask questions about this.
As of today, Zdeblick is still listed as editor-in-chief of the journal. We'll keep you updated on this story as it develops.

I think that this sort of conduct is outrageous! I feel very strongly that transparency and accountability in research should be heavily legislated. I am very active in lobbying around this and I encourage others to do the same.

All Of My Heart (2015)
Genres: Comedy, Family, Romance
Starring: Lacey Chabert, Brennan Elliott, and Ed Asner
Synopsis: After inheriting half of a house, a young woman develops an unexpected friendship with her co-owner.
Review: This is a good one. Chabert and Elliott sparring alone is worth watching. They're quite funny. You know it will end in romance but their journey getting there is fun. This ended up being the first in a series. If you enjoy this look for All Of My Heart: Inn Love and All Of My Heart: The Wedding.
Scoring: 4
All Things Valentine
Genres: Comedy, Drama, Romance
Starring: Sarah Rafferty and Sam Page
Synopsis: A blogger who experiences terrible luck on Valentine's Day meets a handsome veterinarian. When she finds out he's the one who's been leaving rude comments about her articles, she begins to question whether her luck has really changed.
Review: This is a fun Valentine's Day story. It takes a twisted path to get from start to end. The actors are delightful and have good chemistry. Charming
Anything For Love
Starring: Erika Christensen and Paul Greene
Synopsis: A high-powered executive lies about her career on her dating profile, while her match also hides his true identity.
Review: I really enjoyed them getting to know each other with the suspense of wondering how and when they will find out the truth. The leads have a good chemistry and the other actors do a great job. Fun to watch.
Appetite For Love
Starring: Taylor Cole, Andrew Walker
Synopsis: A corporate executive is sent to a small town to re-brand a restaurant as part of a strategic acquisition, but the iconic diner happens to be in her home town where she hasn't been in years and the owner is her high school sweetheart.
Review: When watching a Hallmark movie I expect a happy ending. This time the story took a few turns and had me wondering how they'd get there. I love when that happens. Watching the city girl return to her small-town roots isn't new but Walker does an excellent job of making it worth watching.
Genres: Comedy, Drama, Family, Romance
Starring: William Baldwin and Natalie Brown
Synopsis: Daniel Farrell is a young widowed father who is navigating mourning and parenting Tyler, his adolescent son. Father and son have a great relationship so Tyler can't wait to confide to his dad that he as a crush on a girl in his class. Assuming that his dad is an expert on women, Tyler solicits his dad's help in wooing the girl. While teaching his son the ropes on dating, Daniel discovers he too has many things to figure out about love. Stars William Baldwin and Natalie Brown.
Review: This movie has pretty much everything to tug at the heartstrings. It has a widower, childhood sweethearts, new young love/crush, a florist, a fire station, firefighters, and a fundraising ball. What more could you ask for? The acting is good, the story is beautiful, and the romance is sweet. Watching Dan and Kate take steps forwards and backwards towards a relationship keeps it interesting.
Cooking With Love
Starring: Ali Liebert, Brett Dalton, Kimberley Sustad, and Gabrielle Rose
Synopsis: Hardworking and optimistic television producer, Kelly, doesn't have time for love. Along with her mentor Amanda, Kelly dives into another season of the Little Gourmet, a kids cooking show, when hot-headed chef Stephen Harris is dropped into Kelly's life as a last minute replacement host. As the two struggle to make peace and a successful show, they realize they have a lot more in common than they thought - a love of food, the kids they encounter and each other.
Review: I enjoyed this movie. The characters were colorful and the plot wasn't the typical love story. The highlight, of course, is the kids. They always add something special.
Cupid, Inc.
Genres: Comedy, Fantasy, Romance
Starring: Joely Fisher and Jamie Kennedy
Synopsis: Eve Lovett, a workaholic TV talk show host with a string of failed relationships, is worried she will never find true love A man named Vernon Gart shows up. He tells her that if she can match a new couple before Valentine's Day she will find her true love. If not, her true love will be lost forever.
Review: All of Eve's attempt to put couples together leads to many funny moments in the movie. The story line moves along. They manage to make it funny without being silly. Fisher and Kennedy were perfect for their roles. If you want to relax and have a few laughs, this is for you.
A Dash Of Love
Starring: Jen Lilley and Brendan Penny
Synopsis: When an aspiring chef lands a dream job at her idol's restaurant, she befriends the handsome executive chef. After they are both wrongly fired from there, the duo decides to open their own eatery to prove their food is better.
Review: Lilley and Penny are their usual amazing selves and their chemistry is perfect. Paul's formal chef training matches his stiff personality and Nikki's experimental and adventurous way try new things matches her as well. The story unfolds at a perfect pace.
Dater's Handbook (2016)
Starring: Meghan Markle, Kristoffer Polaha, and Jonathan Scarfe
Synopsis: Cass is a successful business woman that appears unsuccessful in her personal life and decides to try The Daters Handbook at her sister's encouragement and dates several guys to test the process
Review: Polaha and Scarfe are the best parts of the movie. Markle is so-so which is difficult as she is the center of the movie. The two men are playing stereotypical opposites. It's a little predictable. Women with trouble finding Mr. Right may find it relatable.
I Hate Valentine's Day
Starring: Nia Vardalos and John Corbett
Synopsis: A florist, who abides by a strict five-date-limit with any man, finds herself wanting more with the new restaurateur in town.
Review: This has the possibility of being a cute rom-com. The problem for me was I've seen "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" so many times that seeing the same leads in this movie made it not work. I kept seeing their other characters and these characters at the same time. It's a sweet and funny enough movie. I just wish it wasn't those same two actors together.
Love At First Glance
Starring: Amy Smart and Adrian Grenier
Synopsis: After being dumped by her fiancé for being unadventurous, a woman sets out to prove him wrong by tracking down the handsome stranger whose cellphone she found on the subway.
Review: This movie was very different than the typical love story. The two leads communicate via text the entire time until the end. I liked how Mary learned about herself as she tried to learn about James. You do have to let go of reality to fall into this story.
Love In Store (2020)
Starring: Alexandra Breckenridge, Robert Buckley, and Jackee Harry
Synopsis: Sparks fly between a home shopping how and her rival when they compete for a promotion.
Review: I thought the home shopping show angle was a fresh take on a romance. The leads had remarkable chemistry. I expected a happy ending but I didn't know exactly what that would look like. That's a lovely surprise. I truly enjoyed this. It's one I look forward to seeing again.
Love On The Menu
Genres: Family, Romance
Starring: Autumn Reeser and Kavan Smith
Synopsis: A chef makes a deal with a frozen food executive in order to save his restaurant.
Review: I'm not sure why Hallmark made this one of their Valentine movies because the holiday has nothing to do with it. I went into watching it with concern about the chemistry between the stars but boy was I wrong. They were fantastic. The story is about two people developing a relationship not just people falling in love. It makes the story so much more realistic rather than fantasy. I really loved everything about the movie and I highly recommend it.
Love, Romance, and Chocolate
Starring: Lacey Chabert and Will Kemp
Synopsis: Emma and chocolatier Luc compete for Belgium's Royal Chocolatier. The beauty and romance of Bruges inspire unique chocolate combinations, but will their entry win without them losing their hearts?
Review: The scenery alone is worth watching this movie for. Seeing Emma and Luc marry their differing approaches to flavors and doing things is done gently and makes the story as sweet as its chocolate. The parallels between how Emma and Luc approach cooking and life are subtle but add another dimension to the story. I loved it.
Starring: Jessica Szohr and Deidre Hall
Synopsis: When Mira's April Fool's Day tricks materialize, she finds herself promoted to the perfect job, dating the perfect man and living in the perfect home. Mira's newly upgraded life even involves working with her CEO and her good friend, on a coveted work project. When these seemingly positive changes result in big challenges, Mira realizes that the pursuit of perfection is a fool's errand. In order to achieve a life that's perfect for her, Mira must let go of perfection and chase what brings her true happiness.
Review: This movie was different from many Hallmark movies in that Mira's experience was the main plot line. The romantic relationships were secondary. We get to see someone learn that you have to be careful what you wish for, even though she technically didn't wish for them but did want them, and to learn how to grow without leaving herself behind.
Matching Hearts (2020)
Starring: Taylor Cole and Ryan Paevey
Synopsis: As Valentine's Day nears, a matchmaker must find a mate for an entrepreneur who believes staying single is the key to success.
Review: This was an interesting romance. You know they have to end up together but you're not sure how it will happen. Paevey is as delightful as he is in every movie. I liked the matchmaker angle. The dogs were added "aww" moments. The movie seemed to fly by. I couldn't believe when it was over. Very enjoyable.
My Secret Valentine
Starring: Lacey Chabert and Andrew Walker
Synopsis: A young woman takes advice from the chalkboard notes that her mysterious house rental tenant leaves when a slick sales rep arrives with plans to buy her family's prized winery.
Review: The whole secret story with the chalkboard, who is "Handy Man" and who is "In Need of Repair" was fun. It kept me wondering when they'd find out and how it would work out. Of course, I got the ending I expected but we didn't get there how I predicted. A truly sweet story.
The Secret Ingredient (2019)
Starring: Erin Cahill and Brendan Penny
Synopsis: A small-town baker reunites with her ex-fiance after traveling to New York City to compete on a Valentine's Day cooking show.
Review: While I had most of it figured out early on, I wasn't sure how they'd handle who would win the show. I enjoyed the little twists and turns as well as the secrecy of how the show ran. I was thoroughly engaged and entertained the entire time. It's more about relationships and love than the holiday but it's still wonderful.
Starring: Meg Ryan, Tom Hanks, Rita Wilson, Victor Garber, Bill Pullman, David Hyde Pierce, and Rosie O'Donnell
Synopsis: A recently widowed man's son calls a radio talk-show in an attempt to find his father a partner.
Review: While the movie technically ends on Valentine's Day, the theme of love is woven throughout it. Becky pushing her friend to investigate Noah and Sam's radio interview, even though she is with Walter (who is pretty much allergic to everything) is funny. The way they included "An Affair to Remember" is sweet. The kids are remarkable. The movie has it all. I laughed, I cried, I oohed and aahed. It's perfection.
The Story Of Us (2019)
Starring: Maggie Lawson and Sam Page
Synopsis: Jamie learns that her first love Sawyer is the architect of a development that wants to change her beloved neighborhood and threatens her bookstore. Can old Valentines help them see eye to eye?
Review: A woman cherishes her small business and her ex is coming to destroy it. We've seen it time and time again. I don't tire of the repetitive plots on Hallmark. In fact, I think that's part of what makes them so relaxing and enjoyable. You'll know the end, of course, but they make getting there interesting. Jamie is an especially wonderful character.
Valentine Ever After
Genres: Comedy, Drama, Family
Starring: Autumn Reeser and Eric Johnson
Synopsis: When socialites Julia and Sydney leave their cushy lives in Chicago to embark on a road-trip, they end up on the wrong side of the law in a tiny town in Wyoming. Forced to serve 30 days community service, Sydney discovers there's more to life than can be purchased with a gold card and Julia learns that her "perfect" life back home might not be what she thought she wanted.
Review: The scenery is beautiful. The characters and the town are mostly relatable. It's a fun journey watching the women embrace the town and the ranch. Valentine's Day is at the end but love runs throughout. Love between parent and child, friends, and romantic relationships.
Valentine In The Vineyard
Starring: Brendan Penny and Rachel Leigh Cook
Synopsis: Back for the third installment, Frankie and Nate manage life on the vineyard and plan a wedding in secret.
Review: I didn't like this movie any more than the first two. I don't understand why they keep making sequels. The leads don't have chemistry and the story of them has gone to beyond boring. If you like the other ones you may like this one.
A Valentine's Date (also titled Your Love Never Fails)
Starring: Elisa Donovan and Brad Rowe
Synopsis: Laura, a working mother, is forced to return to a life she left behind in Texas when her daughter's father, Dylan, files for joint custody.
Review: If you read the synopsis, you've probably already figured out the ending. No there are no big surprises or plot twists. What the movie does have is actors who do a great job bringing the script to life. I cared about the characters. It was a little slow for me but that's okay once in a while.
Starring: Jessica Alba, Kathy Bates, Jessica Biel, Bradley Cooper, Eric Dane, Patrick Dempsey, Hector Elizondo, Jamie Foxx, Jennifer Garner, Topher Grace, Anne Hathaway, Ashton Kutcher, Queen Latifah, Taylor Lautner, George Lopez, Shirley MacLaine, Emma Roberts, Julia Roberts, and Taylor Swift
Synopsis: Intertwining couples and singles in Los Angeles break-up and make-up based on the pressures and expectations of Valentine's Day.
Review: There's obviously a jam packed cast of actors. Based on that and the description I was expecting the Valentine's Day version of "Noel". I was majorly disappointed. There's a moment here or there that's good but it's quite boring and the characters are mostly annoying people. It was hard to sit through.
A Valentine's Match (2019)
Starring: Luke McFarlane and Bethany Joy Lenz
Synopsis: Fired from her job as a reality TV host, Natalie returns home for Valentine's Day, only to find herself running the town festival's auction with her ex-fiancé thanks to two scheming mothers.
Review: This movie is really special. Lenz and McFarlane have great chemistry and they made me laugh out loud more than once. The moms are pretty funny, too. Yes, I expected the ending but I didn't care. I really enjoyed watching it.
Starring: Danica McKellar and Cameron Mathison
Synopsis: When florist Helen meets a dreamy mystery man at a masquerade ball, she and her friend Henry set out to find him.
Review: I don't understand these movies where people where a tiny mask and then others can't recognize them without it. It's so unbelievable it takes something away from movies with that in it. Like this one. Does she find the mystery man, if so, how did she do it, does she end up with him, does she end up with her friend Henry? All these questions and the beauty of the botanical gardens and the flowers make the movie worth watching.
Walking The Dog (2017)
Starring: Jennifer Finnigan and Sam Page
Synopsis: Rival lawyers battle each other in court as their respective dogs fall madly in love, bringing their guardians together at every turn until they reluctantly realize it may not just be the pups who are each other's true Valentine.
Review: Yes, we have the typical Hallmark aspects here but that's part of why it's so enjoyable. The dogs are so adorable and the actors have great chemistry. Sweet love story.

October 16th, 2013. Wood House Designs, Pleasant Wooden Tone Houses as the Choice of Modern Residence.
Living in wooden tone house is no longer feeling like living in a rustic house. In this modern era, houses are built in different forms and taste of aesthetics without leaving its basic function as a place to live. Thus, it is not impossible to build a house that is exposing our taste and personality.
Related to this situation, you can still have a touch of wooden tone in your house without being looked so traditional or old, especially if you have consciousness in eco-friendly lifestyle. You can spend less on electricity by using glasses extensively on nearly whole part of the front side of the house. Not only that, you can also use the glass as the partition or the handle for the stairs. Without excessive detail on the shape, you can still have a chic modern wooden tone houses.
To balance the use of wooden tone, you can use basic and neutral colors such as black and white. But it doesn't mean that you can't play with more colors, like if your favorite colors are red and yellow. You still can use your favorite colors to paint your favorite room—your bedroom or library—in your house.

As Railways are aware, consequent to the acceptance of the recommendations of the 7th CPC, Railway Board had issued orders vide RBE 28/2018 regarding the merger of Ticket Checking Staff, Commercial Clerks & ECRCs in a phased manner.
It has been observed that implementation of RBE No. 28/2018 has led to reported problems at the field level. The integration of seniority of existing CCs and ECRCs has led to either of the groups feeling aggrieved due to their promotional prospects perceived as getting affected on account of the vacancies in their seniority group being· thrown open to the other category also due to the merger. Nomenclature of the post in GP 4200/- has also been represented against as has the exclusion of only the TC categories from first phase merger.
It was also noted that there were several Court cases pending on this, issue, in various Benches of the Hon'ble CAT – in Ahemdabad, Hydrabad, Jabalpur, Calcutta, Jaiput, Ernakulam, Madras and in the Principal Bench, New Delhi. · In some of these. cases, · interim stay orders on operation of RBE 28/2018 and subsequent actions taken thereon have also been issued.
It has also been noted that implementation of RBE 28/2018 has also not been uniform as reported from various Railways. In some Railways, vacancies that existed as on the date of circulation of the instructions, i.e. 22.02.2018 in the CC or ECRC group were to be filled up exclusively by employees belonging to that group. Only after this was done, the process of merger of the existing cadre to take place. However, this methodology has not been followed in some other Railways where vacancies that existed in the categories of CC and ECRC have not been filled up by the respective seniority groups prior to merger of the existing categories.
Further, subsequent to merger above, general re-allotment of functionalities ordered in some units have triggered staff representation and led to court cases.
In the light of the above developments, the instructions issued vide RBE 28/2018 ibid have been reviewed in consultation with both staff Federations i.e. AIRF & NFIR and the commercial Directorate. Accordingly, while accepting the basic premise of the 7th Pay Commission recommendations that the three Commercial Categories of TC, CC and ECRC would eventually require to be merged, the revised methodology of implementing the same has been worked out and is enclosed herewith as Annexure 'A'.
The above revised provisions may be brought to the notice of the benches of the Hon'ble CAT wherever cases have been filed in this regard. Wherever, directions of the Hon'ble Court affect implementation of these revised instructions, appropriate action to get these directions revised/lifted to be done before implementation.
It may also be noted that while the methodology implementing merger of cadres would be as in Annexure-A, this would not operate to prevent utilization of existing Commercial staff across functional categories, wherever such utilization is considered inescapable in administrative exigencies.

Accredited Libraries
Accreditation Process & Documents
OPLG Council
As part of our innovative and dynamic approach to the Ontario Public Library Guidelines, I am delighted to announce the OPLG Council has approved the 2020 Edition document and supplementary resources at its recent April 2020 meeting.
This new approach confirms and expands our commitment to providing the best, the most current and most useful tools to all public libraries who are seeking to improve their systems as a developmental tool through to those who will be formally seeking Accreditation from the OPLG Council.
The Annual Update replaces the concept of numbered Editions as previously announced. The annual edition will enable more agile guideline-by-guideline adjustments to be made as needed, and posted annually, as opposed to the Edition system's multi-year cycle which has been maintained since its inception in 1990.
We invite you to explore the 2020 Edition, and note that it will be in force until the 2021 Edition is posted in the first quarter of the new year.
With our kindest regards,
Elise C. Cole, Chair

Stratford 1855 Post Office Directory
History of Stratford in 1855
Stratford or Stratford Langthorne, the ford of the street or Roman way from London to Colchester, is a suburb of London, and lies on the banks of the navigable River Lea, and on the Eastern Counties Railway, of which the station is Angel Lane, whence the Northern and Eastern Railway and the Blackwall and Woolwich branch diverge. It is 3 ¾ miles from Shoreditch; is a ward of the parish of West Ham, and in the Union of that name, diocese of London, South Essex, and is also a metropolitan district, in the jurisdiction of the Central Criminal court and metropolitan police; it is united to the metropolis, at Stratford le Bow, by a bridge over the Lea. In 1851 the population was 10,586. The district church, dedicated to St John, built in 1833, is at the junction of the old Newmarket and Colchester roads; the Rev William Holloway is perpetual curate. In 1851 another church was erected, called Christchurch, situate in the High Street; the Rev Stopford Ram, incumbent. In 1135 an abbey for Cistercian monks was founded here, the abbot of which was a lord of parliament, and the income from which, at the dissolution was £573 15s 6d. There are considerable remains of the building. There are chapels for Roman Catholics, Baptists and Wesleyans, and schools on the National and British systems; also Industrial schools of the Whitechapel Union ( erected 1854), Forest Lane. Here is a police station. On the river are flour mills, chemical and print works, distilleries and other factories, Under Queen Mary I, a man and a woman were burned to death here for high treason and heresy. In 1692 George Edwards, the naturalist, was born here, and here he is also buried. In excavating the ground for the railway a stone coffin was discovered close to the surface of the earth, near Maryland Point, and which is now in the possession of the railway company.
Hudson's Town is a part of Stratford, adjoining the railway station.

Labyrnavirus is a monotypic genus of viruses in the order Picornavirales. Protist and labyrinthulomycetes serve as natural hosts, notably Aurantiochytrium. There is only one species in this genus: Aurantiochytrium single-stranded RNA virus 01.

Structure
Viruses in Labyrnavirus are non-enveloped, with icosahedral, spherical, and round geometries, and T=pseudo3 symmetry. The diameter is around 25 nm. Genomes are linear and non-segmented, around 9kb in length. The genome has three open reading frames.

Life cycle
Viral replication is cytoplasmic. Entry into the host cell is achieved by attachment of the virus to host receptors, which mediates endocytosis. Replication follows the positive stranded RNA virus replication model. Positive stranded RNA virus transcription is the method of transcription. Protist and labyrinthulomycetes serve as the natural host.

"I feel very fortunate to have Zufi as a mentor. He is knowledgeable and resourceful, and shares his expertise with kindness and genuine interest. I was initially put in-touch with Zufi to gain advice on setting up an entrepreneur support program focused on water initiatives in the Middle East. Zufi took the time to give me a 45 minute crash course in entrepreneur support programs, following up via email with additional resources and reading material. Zufi continues to connect me with experts and entrepreneurs in the region, facilitating invaluable connections I would not have otherwise been able to make. As a mentor, Zufi is always eager to provide support in any way he can." August 31st, 2017 Policy Specialist at Lamont-Donherty Earth Observatory, Columbia University.
"I received mentoring from Zulfi and it was an amazing experience. Zulfi took the time to really listen to my business idea and give me the much-needed advice and confidence I needed to move forward. I also met with another mentor who also attended the event and he, like Zulfi, was engaging and encouraging and offered me excellent advice. Starting a new business can be overwhelming and I recommend attending Zulfi's events. You will find discussing your business ideas with an interested expert can help you make realistic goals for implementation. That was certainly how it worked for me.
Zulfi and the other mentors have a patient ear and a wealth of knowledge and advice and the mentoring events are not only free, - which is an incredible bonus as many starting out on a business venture are not exactly brimming with funds- it is also an excellent opportunity to meet with the calibre of experts that start-ups would not have the funds or credentials to meet with otherwise.
I was personally encouraged and motivated through my enriching experience. I also met other small business owners at the event and was able to connect with them. I have since gone on to start not one but two successful business ventures and the mentoring I received was of great help. Why not go along? My advice is to go with an open mind, a willingness to learn, and a notepad to jot down ideas!" June, 2nd, 2017 Female Entrepreneur.
"I met the bizBees at the Finetch Jam for Good 2016, sponsored by UNICEF. Biz Bees team won the Infosys Challenge for financial Inclusion with their concept using a combination of crowd funding and micro finance for refugee entrepreneurs in UN Refugee camps. As Jam winners, they pitched their concept at Innovate Finance Global Summit 2016, and met officials from UNICEF and other organisations that have an interest in supporting Refugees. We at Claro Partners supported them through the Jam, and offered them a free consultation session to take their idea forward. It is great to see them taking this high impact project forwards." June, 22nd, 2016 Claro Partners. (bizGees is a bizStuff Co Creational project.)
"I was privileged to have Zufi as one of the judges of the NYU entrepreneurial competition and then as a business mentor of our telemedicine business idea for Egypt. Zufi provided insightful feedback and perspective that encouraged us to challenge our current thinking of our business model and key assumptions. I strongly recommend Zufi for his exceptional mentorship, entrepreneurial experience and business acumen." June, 24th, 2016. Executive MBA Student, NYU Stern School of Business
"Zufi is such a great connector. He always does what he says he is going to do, and for me one of his talents is bridging the gap between where entrepreneurs are and who they need to be speaking to. I'm grateful to have him in my corner and recommend you reach out to him." May, 23rd, 2016 CEO and Millennial Keynote Speaker, TwentySomeone
"I started working with Zufi soon after being entrusted a responsibility over External Relations at Oxford Entrepreneurs – the largest student-led society in Europe focusing on entrepreneurship. Our relationship was one of the most valuable for the Society and therefore, the Oxford Entrepreneurial Community I have ever engaged in!
Zufi's input and ideas were invaluable in advancing Oxford Entrepreneurs' impact for supporting entrepreneurs in Oxford and beyond. His high-level perspective was always accompanied by feasible suggestions on how to achieve the envisioned vision followed by introductions to, who now are, one of the key partners of Oxford Entrepreneurs. Finally, Zufi's pro-activeness in volunteering his knowledge and expertise without me even asking is what makes a huge difference.
In summary – I wholeheartedly recommend reaching out to Zufi and sharing with him what your vision is. Let me assure you – you will be surprised how helpful and long lasting this short conversation will be!". May 10th, 2016 Head of External Relations, Oxford Entrepreneurs

Areas of support provided -
Organising the artfix project using Business Action theory. This means all the systematisation that is going take into the external environment art fix operates in. We initially started by focusing on working on the business model and ensuring the structure of the outlets would lower the risks of failure as much as possible, ie by breaking the units into sub units and renting out space to 3rd parties, etc.
We then started to focus on systematizing the people side of the business. This has meant organising the volunteer time in a way that their careers are supported by spending time with artFix in way that also supports artFix scale. This helps recent graduates build the experience they need in a way that supports artFix at the same time.
We have also discussed ways to build a competitive advantage for artFix using innovation and people as the key sources.
In all a very important but at the same time very pleasant experience." March 19, 2015 - Founder/ Director of artFix

There's some fantastic news for those looking for Dynamics AX jobs: Microsoft is pushing their Dynamics business into new and emerging sectors. What this means for Microsoft Dynamics AX candidates is that there is set to be a serge in Dynamics AX roles, ensuring better job prospects for Dynamics candidates. Here are just a few of those sectors.
The public sector is being reformed throughout the UK, and the government's need to incorporate better technology into its day-to-day operations is increasing.
AX is helping to transform governments into agile, responsive organisations that put the needs of their constituents first. An effective implementation of AX can help to drive innovation from the inside, relying on data from the community that is then analyzed, helping to craft sensible, affordable policies quickly.
There is going to be a growing need, therefore, for AX developers to implement those solutions, as well as consultants who can guide end-users to the right custom AX solution.
While Dynamics CRM is beginning to be used on the front line of healthcare in wards across the world, Dynamics AX jobs are cropping up to support the growing demand for customised AX solutions tailored to the healthcare supply chain.
Stories like these are emerging across the world, and this means more Dynamics AX jobs.
The financial services have been rapidly evolving over the last decade. From the physical trading floor to the smartphone app, the financial services have had to move with the digitalization of the other services industries.
Dynamics partners like Dynamics Advantage have a specialised division dedicated to creating tailor-made AX solutions to businesses in the financial services. AX brings greater multi-company management, treasury management, and financial compliance to the financial services organisations.
This creates a range of new Dynamics AX roles in the finance sector – from developers programming cloud-first, mobile-first business solutions, to Dynamics support consultants and recruiters.
The need to drive up test scores while lowering cost-per-pupil is one of the most important movements within the education sector across the world.
Education providers are therefore taking advantage of Dynamics AX's ERP capabilities to enable a high quality education service in the wake of decreased governmental budgets and a steadily growing number of pupils.
Dynamics AX jobs are likely to expand in the education sector, with institutions looking to better manage their HR, finances, procurement, funds, endowments and grants, facilities and assets, admissions and enrollment, student and teacher performance, alumni and more.
Public justice with a rapidly growing population that is increasingly mobile is becoming more and more challenging.
Defra, the Government Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, has taken advantage of Dynamics AX to integrate finance running costs and human resources system at the Rural Payments Agency to more than 2,000 employees.
The system was developed in coordination with Hitachi Solutions Europe. With all parts of the public sector expected to be reducing their spending that bit further, more and more departments will likely be turning to Microsoft solutions like Dynamics AX to implement fiscal tightening.
This means more roles for Dynamics AX professionals – both programmers and consultants, as more experts are brought in to solve these complex issues.
If you'd like to speak with other Dynamics professionals and see how they're approaching Dynamics AX jobs, join us on Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn.

The biggest objection that most inexperienced writers raise when someone broaches the delicate matter of planning is that it will get in the way of their inventive powers. A plan will be like a straitjacket. They'll be stuck with this plan and if they come up with a good idea along the way, they will not be able to use it.

Some classic encryption algorithms.
Caesar's Cyher
Julius Caesar is said to have used this encryptions scheme while sending out military instructions to his generals.
This is a very simple method - it basically moves a letter three places forward - 'a' becomes 'd', 'b' becomes 'e' and so on.
Enigma Machine Encryption
Enigma Machine is a device used in World War II by Germany for encryption and decryption of top secret documents. It was a simple machine, but it created an encryption scheme that where extremely difficult to crack. In the end, a polish mathamatican cracked the code - it was one of the main reasons behind the allied victory of World War II.
Enigma Machine looked like ordinary typewriters. They had all the keys that where necessary on them and had an output with bulbs under every letter. When a key is pressed, the bulb under the letter corresponding to that key was lit. In between the key and the bulb the wires went through some wheels. The first models of Enigma machines had four wheels(like my program). Later, more advanced machines were created - some having upto 16 wheels.
See the Simulation of an Enigma Machine using 4 wheels.
Download a Java version of Enigma Machine using 2 wheels. Be careful of this - this is my first Java Program and has a lot of bugs. Try the JavaScript version above - that is much better.
ROT-13
'Rotate alphabet 13 places'. The simple Caesar-cypher encryption that replaces each English letter with the one 13 places forward or back along the alphabet, so that "The butler did it!" becomes "Gur ohgyre qvq vg!" A major advantage of ROT-13 over rot(N) for other N is that it is self-inverse, so the same code can be used for encoding and decoding. So if you click the button two times, you get the original message back.
Binny's Re-Encryption Method
This is perhaps the easiest encryption to do - just 1 line of code is enough. This methord uses the Regular Expressions.
encrypted = txt.replace(/(.)(.)(.)(.)(.)(.)(.)/g,"$3$6$7$1$2$4$5")
Decryption is just as simple...
decrypted = txt.replace(/(.)(.)(.)(.)(.)(.)(.)/g,"$4$5$1$6$7$2$3")
This basically mixes the letters around.
One can use any good text editor, which has regular expression search and replace support to encrypt a file. Just open a file and replace the regular expression "(.)(.)(.)(.)(.)(.)(.)" with the string "\3\6\7\1\2\4\5". To decrypt it, just replace "(.)(.)(.)(.)(.)(.)(.)" with "/4/5/1/6/7/2/3". Or you can use grep to do it for you. Another feature of this scheme is that one can modify the encryption as he/she likes very easily.

Gharial crocodiles and the Sarus crane were the main objective…!
This was to be my last safari on this month long trip to India. The site is situated in Agra, east of Delhi where the famous Taj Mahal is located.
A female gharial regulating her body temperature early in the morning by the Chambal River in Agra…!
The Chambal River has some very interesting creatures and the main ones I was after were the gharial (thin-jawed fish eating crocodile) and the Sarus crane (the world's tallest bird). Time was limited and I was lucky to photographed both species in one day.
Another female gharial and its tell-tale thin jaw for catching fish; they are an amazing crocodilian…!
I stayed at the Chambal Safari Hotel some 70 kilometers past the city of Agra. We left at 5am and arrived at the boat landing where a speed boat was waiting near dawn that was another 22 kilometers from the lodge.
And yet another female gharial before slipping into the Chambal River…! No males were photographed…!
Within no time at all, we bumped into gharial and I got several but they were all female. The males would slip into the river as soon as they spotted us.
A breeding pair of Sarus cranes feeding and dancing on Chambal; these wonderful birds mate for life…!
But I was happy to get some decent photographs and as the sun rose into the sky, it became dreadfully hot and light was very harsh so we returned to the hotel for lunch.
The Sarus crane is the tallest bird in the world and they are thriving very well in India at several locations….!
Other species captured were the mugger crocodile and Indian blue peafowl in full display mode. Many water birds are also found here.
A Indian peafowl male in full display. These birds thrive by the river and are absolutely beautiful…!
Back again at 3:30pm and we motored up the river once again. Shortly thereafter, two Sarus cranes were spotted feeding along a sandy bank. I was delighted and surprised to see how close we got to the tall birds.
A mugger or marsh crocodile basking in the morning sun. This reptile is estimated to be about 3 meters long…!
I will return in mid-March 2017 when the weather is much cooler and the crocs are a lot easier to see when they need to bask for long periods in the sun regulating their body temperature due to the very cold river. All in all, it was a quick but very satisfying trip to the Chambal River. Enjoy…!

An Absolutely Remarkable Thing By Hank Green
Narrated by: Kristen Sieh, Hank Green
An Absolutely Remarkable Thing AudioBook Summary
The instant number-one New York Times best seller
In his much-anticipated debut novel, Hank Green – co-creator of Crash Course, Vlogbrothers, and SciShow – spins a sweeping, cinematic tale about a young woman who becomes an overnight celebrity before realizing she's part of something bigger, and stranger, than anyone could have possibly imagined.
The Carls just appeared. Coming home from work at three a.m., 23-year-old April May stumbles across a giant sculpture. Delighted by its appearance and craftsmanship – like a 10-foot-tall Transformer wearing a suit of samurai armor – April and her friend Andy make a video with it, which Andy uploads to YouTube. The next day April wakes up to a viral video and a new life. News quickly spreads that there are Carls in dozens of cities around the world – everywhere from Beijing to Buenos Aires – and April, as their first documentarian, finds herself at the center of an intense international media spotlight.
Now April has to deal with the pressure on her relationships, her identity, and her safety that this new position brings, all while being on the front lines of the quest to find out not just what the Carls are, but what they want from us.
Compulsively entertaining and powerfully relevant, An Absolutely Remarkable Thing grapples with big themes, including how the social Internet is changing fame, rhetoric, and radicalization; how our culture deals with fear and uncertainty; and how vilification and adoration spring from the same dehumanization that follows a life in the public eye.
