New York lawmakers need to do more to protect renters: tenant advocates
By Denis Slattery

ALBANY — Affordable housing proponents are less than impressed with a rental subsidy bill they say doesn't go far enough to aid New Yorkers struggling amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Lawmakers, who are back in the capital this week to vote on a host of COVID-19 bills, are eyeing a measure that would provide emergency rental assistance vouchers to residential tenants and relies on roughly $100 million in federal funding to cover the costs.
"It's really a slap in the face to tenants across the state," said Jonathan Westin, the director of New York Communities for Change. "It provides the most meager sense of relief to people. In typical Albany fashion, the do-nothing Legislature and the governor have come together to find a way to do as little as possible for regular people."
Westin and other advocates are encouraging electeds in Albany to vote against the bill and calling for a full-on cancelation of rent payments until the conclusion of the current crisis.
The subsidy bill is a scaled-back version of a measure pitched by Sen. Brian Kavanagh (D-Manhattan) in March that would have provided emergency vouchers for rental assistance and required $10 billion in federal funding.

The new version introduced early Tuesday would create an "interim residential rent relief program" to support a more limited number of households impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic using funds allocated to the state by the federal Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act passed by Congress in March.
Earlier this month, Cuomo extended a moratorium on evictions for renters unable to pay rent due to COVID-19 through August. Critics say the measure is insufficient as tenants are still on the hook to pay back missed rent and fear undocumented immigrants and others who don't qualify for unemployment will remain vulnerable.
A group of advocates penned a letter to Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins (D-Yonkers) and Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie (D-Bronx) on Tuesday calling on them to rethink rent relief.
"As another month's rent will soon come due on June 1, renting families across the state need you to return to session to enact emergency measures to prevent another round of devastating budget cuts, to prevent mass evictions, and to stop predatory investors from scooping up thousands of rental units," the groups wrote.

Advocates want Heastie and Stewart-Cousins to get behind bills, such as one introduced by Sen. Michael Gianaris (D-Queens), that would cancel rent altogether, target large landlords and embrace increasing taxes on the rich to help cover additional measures.
"We think this deal is really insufficient," said Cea Weaver, the campaign coordinator with Housing Justice For All. "We really prefer a subsidy that puts it on the landlords, not the renters, to apply. This bill is extremely limited as to who is eligible and we think there is a much better way to structure a subsidy that can help more people that doesn't treat all landlords the same."
Mike Murphy a spokesman for Senate Democrats, said that lawmakers are doing what they can with federal funds already allotted, calling the current rent bill a "first step."
"This pandemic has crushed our economy and exposed so many inequities that need to be addressed," Murphy said. "We agree that much more needs to be done and unfortunately the federal government has been too slow to act.
"We also intend to extend eviction protections while we continue the fight for additional aid to provide the full measure of needed assistance for tenants and homeowners alike," he added.

Metal Gear Solid Producer Says 2023 Will Be 'A Year Of Many Announcements'
By GamerfangPosted on January 2, 2023
Metal Gear Solid creator and Death Stranding director Hideo Kojima and Metal Gear Solid publisher Konami split with another one in 2015 and since then, the famed MGS series hasn't had a mainline entry (though there was metal gear survive is not very good in 2018).
While there's no reason to believe that Kojima and Konami will be teaming up again anytime soon, it seems likely that the latter may be preparing some sort of return to MGS. In a recent issue, longtime MGS producer Noriyaki Okamura wrote famitsu As reported that "2023 will be the year of many announcements". Gematsu,
in the end-of-the-year special issue famitsu, several Japanese developers and producers wrote quick teases about what 2023 might hold for them. This is where Okamura teased that 2023 will be a year of announcements for Konami Digital Entertainment. More specifically, he said "besides [the educational edition of Momotaro Dentetsu announced last year]2023 will be the year of many announcements," and his keyword for 2023 is "the long-awaited", as noted by Gematsu,
Now, this could be his way of saying that overall Konami will make some announcements and maybe some of them will be long awaited by fans. However, given that it's Okamura – a longtime MGS producer – saying this, there's reason to believe that perhaps he's teasing a return to the MGS series. Maybe we're getting a remake of one of the games, or maybe a new mainline entry. only time will tell.

Most children are well acquainted today with the series the Narnia Chronicles, written by CS Lewis. Born on November 29, 1898, in Belfast Ireland, Clive Staples Lewis is a world renowned writer whose fame goes well beyond the aforementioned series. For his contemporaries, especially for the American and British public, as well as for his students, professor CS Lewis was a famous face and voice with a brilliant mind who always kept in touch with his audiences, readers and pupils and was most and foremost interested in sharing his knowledge as well as in enhancing his own knowledge through direct contact with his fellow human beings.
A brilliant student, First in Literae Humaniore and English Language and Literature, graduate of Oxford University, CS Lewis decided very early in his life that did not like either of his first names and thus became to all his friends, acquaintances and relatives, Jack. After having dealt with atheism in his early youth years, CS Lewis returned to Christianity in his early thirties. His direct participation in WWI as a soldier in the first lines only helped him enrich his knowledge about the human nature, but did not contribute to deepening his initial atheistic convictions.
Considering his literary evolution, CS Lewis' series "The Chronicles of Narnia" surprised his usual readers and audiences. Truthful to his habit of keeping a close contact to all those who read his works or listened to his lectures, he supported his decision to turn to children's literature in his fifties explaining that children and adult readers deserved the same degree of attention from a writer of fiction because both age categories are able and need to relate to an invented story, even if in different ways.
CS Lewis has used the numerous opportunities he encountered in his dialogues with fellow writers and most importantly, in his answers to his young reader's letters, to detail and make his opinions regarding his philosophy about this particular kind of literature clear. Critics and analysts of his work have no difficulties finding out exactly how children's literature fits into his literary bodywork. Lyle W. Dorsett and Marjorie Lamp Mead argue that throughout his work, the British writer staid true to his beliefs and his readers, regardless of their ages: "The child as reader is neither to be patronized nor idolized: we talk to him as man to man…" (CS Lewis, quoted by Dorsett and Mead, p. 4).
CS Lewis further details his theory regarding the best way to expose such young impressionable readers to something that is not entirely separated from actions and characters that could cause them distress: "We must of course try to do [children] no harm: we may under the Omnipotence, sometimes dare to hope that we may do them good. But only such good as involves treating them with respect" (idem).
Although objective, such reflections may sound too scientifically impartial and thus too cold in relationship with the very young, generally dealt with in a more emotional manner. The fact that CS Lewis never had children of his own and only started a family in the later years of his life could have contributed to his objective and yet just manner of dealing with his very young audiences. On the other hand, his incessant interest in his fellow humans in general, offered him the opportunity to remain impartial in his relationship with all his readers or listeners, regardless of their age. His religious beliefs, lacking any trace of hypocrisy, only supported him in his generous efforts to offer everyone something of interest from his creative work. His literary genius manifested itself plainly in the children series "The Chronicles of Narnia."
The close contact with refugee children Lewis had at his property at Kilns, as a result of the outbreak of WWII, may have had an essential contribution to his deep knowledge of the children's minds. Walter Hooper, author of the book CS Lewis: A Complete Guide to His Life & Works, points out that the events related to this episode were an inspiration to Lewis. It not only opened him a window toward the soul of a child, but also inspired him to use his creativity to address this category of readers as well (Hooper, C.S. Lewis: A Complete Guide to His life & Works, p. 402). The fact that the seven novels that comprise the series of the Chronicles of Narnia have the same huge success today as they had since their publication is a sure sign that CS Lewis knew his readers well and although not a child himself anymore, he knew how to relate to a child's emotional needs.
Like his science fiction novels, the ones that comprise the children's literature series are not strange from Christian symbolism. However, in his spirit of treating his readers with respect, the writer did not attempt to include anywhere in these novels attempts to manipulate and lead children away from the mere pleasure of reading. He did not assume the voice of a preacher, but merely presented children with a stage where they could see and listen to both positive and negative characters, find out about failure, cowardice, hope, courage and solidarity as well as other features of the adult world they are usually presented with at a much later stage in their lives and usually in painful ways.
One of the most impressive qualities of CS Lewis' children's literature comes from the fact that although he introduced elements that have more to do with the reality of the adult world, he did not cross the border between fairy tales and horror stories. The way the author went back and forth to complete the series is a proof that he was careful to present his readers with a credible story that did not lack cohesion and allowed them to make their own judgments. CS Lewis' young readers are obviously not expected to just swallow a series of stories, they are rather expected to distinguish between fiction and reality and take from fiction only the things they find most suitable to their own character and the real world they are living in.
Thus, in spite of starting to work on the novel the Magician's Nephew after he completely wrote another five novels destined to be included in the Chronicles of Narnia, CS Lewis completed a sixth novel, the Last Battle, before he finished the Magician's Nephew which he intended to make the first one of the series. In the spirit of the classical fairy tales, the children main characters and the fantastic characters and land of Narnia are destined to present young readers with the fight between good and evil which classically ends up with the victory of the good. This is the simple way to describe the adventures of the Pevensie children, Susan, Lucy, Peter and Edmund, their children relatives or schoolmates.
The seven novels of the series did not just awake the interest of the young readers, but also that of adults who saw beyond the mere stories whole new meanings and messages related to the problematic and issues characteristic to the world they were living in. Two world wars and dramatic changes and shifts between classes and other categories came to be invariably reflected in the seven novels. World dominance, dictators, weapons of mass destruction, evil minds, gender and race related issues, social inequalities, all these were to some degree reflected in the characters and events described in the seven novels.

BEFORE I FALL: 2 ½ STARS. "needs more edge to be truly cutting."
Thursday, March 2nd, 2017
"Before I Fall," a new supernatural thriller based on the young adult novel of same name by Lauren Oliver, is essentially an anti-bullying "It gets better" advertisement stretched to feature length.
Zoey Deutch is Sam, high school senior and along with Lindsay (Halston Sage), Allison (Cynthy Wu) and Elody (Medalion Rahimi), one of a quartet of mean girls. "Till death do us part," they chant in a clumsy bit of foreshadowing. Best friends, Lindsay says, they've "kissed the hottest boys, gone to the sickest parties" and, since grade five made the lives of those they deemed less cool miserable. One such classmate is Juliet (Elena Kampouris), an outsider they nicknamed Mellow Yellow after a long ago camp bed wetting.
On Valentine's Day the four attend a wild house party but things don't go exactly as planned. On what was supposed to be Sam's big night with her boyfriend Rob (Kian Lawley), he gets drunk and flirts with other girls. Worse, Juliet shows up to confront her tormentors. When the situation gets out of control the foursome storm out, piling into Lindsay's SUV. Minutes later the vehicle veers off the road and spins through the air. All are killed.
Or are they?
The next morning Sam wakes up in her bed with a bad case of Déjà vu. It's once again Valentine's Day morning and she seems to be reliving the day all over again. "I feel I'm still dreaming," she says, perplexed. "Or was yesterday a dream?" Is she destined to relive the worst day of her life over and over? Or can she change her fate? The opportunity to revisit the day brings with it some perspective on the way she has lived her life. Out go the eye rolls, in comes a wave of empathy. "Maybe everything done could be undone," she says. "Maybe things could change and I could change them. If I had to live the same day over and over I would make it a worthy day… but not just for me."
Like the time travelling child of "Groundhog Day" and "Mean Girls" (but without Bill Marie or Rachel McAdams), "Before I Fall" is a study of teen angst magnified by a glitch in time. For its young adult audience it will likely raise questions about tolerance, bullying and behaviour. Those for whom high school is a long distant memory may have a harder time finding a great deal of depth in Sam's revelations.
As portrayed in the film Sam has some edge—she's not very nice to her sister and ignores her parents—but her journey from sinner to saint might have had more oomph if we had seen more of her terrible behaviour. As it is Lindsay is the true mean girl and yet we're never really sure what happens to her. "Before I Fall" is a redemption story about a teen who doesn't seem as much mean as she does moody. Hollywood doesn't like to make movies where the lead is unlikable but in this case it would have added to Sam's story of salvation.
Deutch is a likable (perhaps too likable) presence and the story has good and timely messages about bullying, teen suicide and the cause and effect of high school life, but "Before I Fall" needs more edge to be truly cutting. Also, since this isn't an episode of "Star Trek" I'll forgive the disregard for the space-time continuum rules.

MANHATTAN NIGHT: 2 STARS. "far-fetched and convoluted story."
There was a time when pulpy New York noirs were a popular genre. Claustrophobic and edgy, movies like "Scarlet Street," "The Dark Corner" and "The Naked City" exposed the Big Apple's dirty urban underbelly in gritty and entertaining ways. It's been sometime since we've taken a cinematic walk on NYC's wild side, so a 50's style noir placed on present day Manhattan streets should be a welcome thing, right? "Manhattan Night" is a based on author Colin Harrison's award winning New York Times Notable Book of the Year "Manhattan Nocturne."
"I sell fear, scandal and mayhem," says investigative reporter Porter Wren (Adrien Brody). "I sell newspapers. With three deadlines a week, I'm always looking for a good story." It is that search that leads him to Caroline Crowley (Yvonne Strahovski), a femme fatale with a murdered husband (Campbell Scott) and a favour to ask. She uses her seductive powers to convince him to use his skill to find out who offed her husband. Smelling a good story, Wren becomes infatuated with her and investigates the case placing his marriage and life in danger.
Director Brian DeCubellis certainly knows his way around the genre. "Manhattan Night" is ripe with blackmail, danger, moral ambiguity, slick city streets and abuses of power. It hits all the right notes but seems slightly out of tune, like a cover version of a popular song that doesn't quite capture the magic of the original.
Brody is suitably world-weary and Strahovski is mysterious and dangerously seductive. Both are stereotypes that feel airlifted in from another, better, movie. As far as the baddies go, Scott nails it as the troubled and threatening husband, a man who projects his neurosis on everyone around him. He's over the top, chewing the scenery to such an extent you fear he might actually gnaw through the screen, but at least he's captures the eye. Ditto Steven Berkoff as a Murdoch-esque media baron who seems to exists to add an unsavoury element to an already grubby affair.
As "Manhattan Night" slowly winds its way toward its anti-climatic final scenes it becomes clear that no amount of stylish direction or outrageous characters can make up for the far-fetched and convoluted story.

Flashdance: Iconic film turned musical opens 30 years after the movie's release
By Richard Crouse – Metro Canada
"It's the thing that won't go away," says journalist-turned-screenwriter-turned-playwright Thomas Hedley Jr. of his most famous work, Flashdance.
Sitting at the grand Ed Mirvish Theatre on Yonge Street, just blocks away from the strip bars that inspired him to write the original story, he talks about bringing Flashdance to the stage.
"If you are going to do this for the stage, you have to play by the rules of the stage," he says.
"You need a great love story and the singing and the dancing has to advance the story and you are locked into those techniques. It's happening in front of your eyes. It's not three or four body doubles. It's more honest. That makes it play stronger."
In 1983, Flashdance was a phenomenon. The story of a welder-by-day, exotic-dancer-by-night Alex Owens (Jennifer Beals) and her dreams of going to ballet school, made off-the-shoulder sweatshirts fashionable and became the number one R-rated movie of the year.
"It was a zeitgeist thing," he says. "It just clicked."
Hedley conceived the story years before at a bar called Gimlets in downtown Toronto.
"My friend Robert Markle taught painting at the New School. Like de Kooning, he wanted to have movement in all of his nude studies, so he found this place and these girls were doing it. He said, 'You gotta come. It's my Sistine Chapel but you have to behave. I don't want jerky behaviour.' I went there and watched him draw them. We were very avuncular. We weren't like guys on the make or anything. We were the genteel, older men in the back. We got to know (the girls) very well. I'm always drawn to girls 18 to 20 who want to make something dramatic out of themselves and need to be an outlaw before they go off and marry the plumber. There is an enormous energy from those creatures and they were like that."
The story's provocative origins grabbed Hollywood's attention but didn't guarantee that the story would get turned into a film.
"It was not on the track to being made," says Hedley, "and then a couple of movies fell out at Paramount and they had a big meeting and said, 'What do we have?' (Frank) Mancuso, who was the head of marketing, said, 'I could sell this one, with the naked girls. Let's do that one.' It was lucky that it got made at all. It was a random thing."
The new stage musical, lands at Ed Mirvish Theatre (formerly The Canon) on May 27, 30 years after the movie was released. It features all the songs from the film — hits like Flashdance What a Feeling, Maniac and Gloria — alongside new songs by Canadian composer Robbie Roth.
It's a labour of love that has kept Hedley busy for almost 10 years.
"It's like Sammy Davis, Jr. singing Candy Man," he says. "If I were him, I'd never want to sing Candy Man but you have to stick with it because it has its own life."

Metro in Focus: Frankenstein's creation is back from the dead, again
Tuesday, January 21st, 2014
By Richard Crouse – In Focus Metro Canada
The eight-foot-tall, gruesomely ugly creation of Victor Frankenstein has been called many things. In the original Mary Shelley novel he is named The Ogre. In the credits of the Boris Karloff film he is referred to as The Monster. He's also been called a fiend, the thing and the demon.
All those terms are apt for a creature born of dead body parts but a new movie adds a different name to the list—Adam. As in Adam Frankenstein.
I, Frankenstein, stars Aaron Eckhart as Adam, the prefab man. He's now an immortal martial arts expert battling a war between rival clans in an ancient city. The character takes the name from the Shelley book. Sort of.
Shelley never gave the monster a name—people often mistakenly refer to him as Frankenstein—but in the novel the creature says to Victor, "I ought to be thy Adam; but I am rather the fallen angel."
Whatever you want to call him, Frankenstein's Monster has always been a popular character in the movies.
The most famous film featuring the creature has to be Boris Karloff's 1931 classic, but it wasn't the first. Five silent films, one with the dramatic title Life Without Soul and another that featured the brute emerging from a cauldron of fiery chemicals, all played to packed houses.
From those dramatic beginnings dozens of movies followed.
Robert De Niro played the beast in Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. On the set director Kenneth Branagh banned the word "monster," insisting instead that everyone refer to the creature the same way he is billed in the credits, as "The Sharp Featured Man."
Frankenstein: The College Years is basically an unlikely mix of Shelley's story and Encino Man. Directed by Tom Ace Ventura: Pet Detective Shadyac, this 1991 comedy sees college student Mark (William Ragsdale) reanimate Dr. Frankenstein's creature who then becomes a football star and a big man on campus known as Frank N. Stein (Vincent Hammond). "He blends right in," says Mark of the six-foot-nine Frank, "he's a regular invisible man."
The movie The Bride, a 1985 remake of The Bride of Frankenstein starring Sting and Jennifer Beals, gave the fiend yet another name. He was dubbed Viktor but not in tribute to his creator Victor Frankenstein. In this retelling the good doctor is known as Baron Charles Frankenstein. The name Viktor was chosen in tribute to the film's producer Victor Drai.

"It sounded like a man, and I quite forgot it was woman speaking" : on science, gender, and performance in fin-de siècle British psychical research Chettiar, Teri Anne
This paper is an examination of the role of gender in the "fin-de-siècle" scientific investigations and theoretical work of the British Society for Psychical Research (SPR). Focusing specifically on the SPR's investigations into the séance phenomena of the well-known American medium Mrs. Leonora Piper, I examine how Piper's cross-gendered séance "performances" were considered desirable within the context of late-Victorian psychical investigations, despite their transgressive potential outside of the confines of the séance. Piper's masculine séance "performances" fulfilled the masculine code of behaviour that was integral to the SPR's scientific investigations, and investigators' participation in the production of Piper's masculine trance identities during the séance reveals that specific kinds of masculine identities were enacted at the "fin-de-siècle" that served the important purpose of asserting the legitimacy of the scientific process. Although Piper's séance "impersonations" of men who shared SPR investigators' scientific concerns were tremendously influential in determining the SPR's conceptual language and intellectual direction, investigators were careful to suppress the potentially subversive effects of these "impersonations" in order to preserve the integrity of Victorian beliefs about the stability and naturalness of gendered identities. In order to contain Piper's "impersonations," investigators appealed to a psychological explanatory framework that described Piper's trance personalities as subconsciously produced romantic creations; The SPR's psychological work describing the subconscious mind's tendency to produce a number of different selves was a radical and quintessentially "modern" assertion of the "normal" individual's potential to exhibit characteristics whose gendered associations were at odds with the individual's anatomical sex. At the same time, the SPR's psychological explanation of Piper's "impersonations" acted as a conservative means to preserving traditional Victorian understandings of sexual difference since it dismissed cross-gendered trance; "impersonations" as fictive (and hence unreal) creations. Despite the conservative effects of the SPR's explanatory framework, the significant presence of Piper's male "impersonations" and SPR investigators' active role in making these cross-gendered "performances" possible offers insight into the erosion of Victorian understandings of sexual difference in a variety of unpredictable quarters at the turn of the century.

Q: Brownian Motion with stopping threshold I just want to generate one stochastic process, whereas I want to be able to manipulate the start value and the volatility. Furthermore, the process should stop when it reaches 5
However, as soon as I use the SeedRandom[seed] function some error occurs.
Hope you can help me.
I also want the function to start at 0 and not at 1
Definition function of:
(* x[t+1]=x[t]+μ (drift) + shock[t]; which stops at threshold*)
My code:
σ = 0.2
SeedRandom[85]; shock1 =
RandomVariate[NormalDistribution[0, σ],(*time interval/Length of paths*) 10]

μ = 0.1

 step[x_, μ_, shock1_] :=
 If[x == 5, 5, If[x + μ + shock1 < 5, 5, x + μ + shock1]]

p1 = FoldList[step, 10, shock1]

ListLogPlot[p1, Joined -> True]

This Works perfectly, however, as soon as I enter the following i get some Problems:
Manipulate[SeedRandom[seed];
 shock1 = RandomVariate[NormalDistribution[0, σ1], 10]; μ =
   0.1; step[x_, μ_, shock1_] :=
  If[x == 5, 5, If[x + μ + shock1 < 5, 5, x + μ + shock1]];
 ListLogPlot[FoldList[step, S, shock1], Joined -> True], {S, 10,
  50}, {σ1, 0.1, 1}]

I get the following error-message: "Argument seed in SeedRandom[seed] should be an integer or a string. "
But when I enter:
Manipulate[SeedRandom[85];
 shock1 = RandomVariate[NormalDistribution[0, σ1], 10]; μ =
   0.1; step[x_, μ_, shock1_] :=
  If[x == 5, 5, If[x + μ + shock1 < 5, 5, x + μ + shock1]];
 ListLogPlot[FoldList[step, S, shock1], Joined -> True], {S, 10,
  50}, {σ1, 0.1, 1}]

and try to manipulate the volatility just nothing happens.
do you have any solutions for my problem?

A: There are a couple of details that make your function misbehave. Here is a version that takes in {currentx, mu} and a term of the shock list and outputs {newx, mu}. I changed your Ifs to a single Which. The manipulate now seems to work fine. I also moved the function definition outside the Manipulate, which is more efficient (there's no need to define the function at each pass through the Manipulate).
step[{x_, mu_}, s_] := {Which[x == 5, 5, x + mu + s > 5, 5, True, x + mu + s], mu};

Manipulate[sig = 0.2; mu = 0.05; len = 500; SeedRandom[seed]; start=1;
  shock = RandomVariate[NormalDistribution[0, sig], len];
  p1 = FoldList[step, {start, mu}, shock];
  ListLogPlot[p1[[All, 1]], Joined -> True], {seed, 1, 85, 1}]

There are a couple of subtleties in this problem. For instance, one of the comments to the OP suggested replacing the logic of the Which (or If in the OP) with Clip. This might not be a good idea because the goal is to freeze the process once it reaches 5. When clipping, the process might go above 5 (and be clipped) but later drop below 5 again. It is also more tricky than it seems to generate a lot of paths and then choose the ones you want: again, the paths would need to be processed to get the proper clipping.

School officials are regularly asked to balance the interests of safety and privacy for individual students. While the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) generally requires schools to ask for written consent before disclosing a student's personally identifiable information to individuals other than his or her parents, it also allows schools to take key steps to maintain school safety. Understanding the law empowers school officials to act decisively and quickly when issues arise.
In an emergency, FERPA permits school officials to disclose without consent education records, including personally identifiable information from those records, to protect the health or safety of students or other individuals. At such times, records and information may be released to appropriate parties such as law enforcement officials, public health officials, and trained medical personnel. See 34 CFR § 99.31(a)(10) and § 99.36. This exception is limited to the period of the emergency and generally does not allow for a blanket release of personally identifiable information from a student's education records.
Many school districts employ security staff to monitor safety and security in and around schools. Some schools employ off-duty police officers as school security officers, while others designate a particular school official to be responsible for referring potential or alleged violations of law to local police authorities. Under FERPA, investigative reports and other records created and maintained by these "law enforcement units" are not considered "education records" subject to FERPA. Accordingly, schools may disclose information from law enforcement unit records to anyone, including outside law enforcement authorities, without parental consent. See 34 CFR § 99.8.
Law enforcement unit officials who are employed by the school should be designated in its FERPA notification as "school officials" with a "legitimate educational interest." As such, they may be given access to personally identifiable information from students' education records. The school's law enforcement unit officials must protect the privacy of education records it receives and may disclose them only in compliance with FERPA. For that reason, it is advisable that law enforcement unit records be maintained separately from education records.
Schools are increasingly using security cameras as a tool to monitor and improve student safety. Images of students captured on security videotapes that are maintained by the school's law enforcement unit are not considered education records under FERPA. Accordingly, these videotapes may be shared with parents of students whose images are on the video and with outside law enforcement authorities, as appropriate. Schools that do not have a designated law enforcement unit might consider designating an employee to serve as the "law enforcement unit" in order to maintain the security camera and determine the appropriate circumstances in which the school would disclose recorded images.
FERPA does not prohibit a school official from disclosing information about a student if the information is obtained through the school official's personal knowledge or observation, and not from the student's education records. For example, if a teacher overhears a student making threatening remarks to other students, FERPA does not protect that information, and the teacher may disclose what he or she overheard to appropriate authorities.
Finally, under FERPA, school officials may disclose any and all education records, including disciplinary records and records that were created as a result of a student receiving special education services under Part B of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, to another school or postsecondary institution at which the student seeks or intends to enroll. While parental consent is not required for transferring education records, the school's annual FERPA notification should indicate that such disclosures are made. In the absence of information about disclosures in the annual FERPA notification, school officials must make a reasonable attempt to notify the parent about the disclosure, unless the parent initiated the disclosure. Additionally, upon request, schools must provide a copy of the information disclosed and an opportunity for a hearing. See 34 CFR § 99.31(a)(2) and § 99.34(a).
While the education agency or institution has the responsibility to make the initial, case-bycase determination of whether a disclosure is necessary to protect the health or safety of students or other individuals, U.S. Department of Education staff members are available to offer assistance in making this determination. For further information about FERPA, contact the Department's Family Policy Compliance Office.
For inquiries about FERPA compliance training, e-mail FERPA.Client@ED.Gov.

The structure of the old and rare book market is rapidly changing. Within a generation what has long looked like parallel tracks that never converge, eBay and traditional auctions, are converging. eBay is trying to move upstream while major auction houses are experimenting with formats that look similar to what might be called eBay+. The difference between these two platforms is authentication. On eBay the seller tells their story. At traditional auctions the house, as independent arbiter, tell the item's story, providing authentication while trying to be balanced because both buyers and sellers have to be satisfied. Auction houses have the upper hand. Authentication is that important.
Not everyone thinks the auction houses get it right either. For years I've heard professionals randomly complain that auction houses over describe virtues and under describe weaknesses. And God help them when they incorrectly describe. Many years ago, a dealer mentioned an incorrectly described item upcoming up at a major auction house that, though difficult to identify, was actually a re-print of an exceptional rarity. It was coming up soon and I wondered if he would tell the auction house. The answer was "no." It improved his bargaining position. Dealers typically charge higher prices than auctions achieve.
During the past 10 years complaints from buyers, however they buy, are fewer. The Internet has made it possible to double check rarity and comparative pricing by looking on the web at the OCLC, the Library of Congress, the American Antiquarian Society, Biblio and Abebooks to name just a few sources. What none of them tell you is what it's worth and that's the most common question. Ultimately price/value is determined by professional evaluation or, for the owner, careful study.
What's changing is that the mysteries that have long obscured both value and potential buyers, are slowly giving way to internet double checks and increasing awareness of who is buying, and this will pressure margins. If so, this is not yet apparent but seems inevitable.
It is expected that massive amounts of old paper, be they old and rare books, manuscripts, maps or ephemera will be coming to market because of two trends, the aging of the current collecting generation that is looking to downsize, and libraries that are narrowing their collections.
Whatever the outcome, these forces are already in motion and the world will adjust. Precisely how I can't say.

As the leader in HDMI and control system technologies, Crestron developed DigitalMedia technology to deliver the first complete HD AV distribution system to take HDMI technology to a higher level. A DigitalMedia system allows virtually any mix of HDMI and other AV sources to be distributed throughout a room, building, or campus. The latest generation of a DigitalMedia system uses DigitalMedia 8G+ technology. Engineered for ultra high-bandwidth and ultimate scalability, DigitalMedia 8G+ technology provides true one-wire lossless transport of high-definition video, audio, Ethernet, and control signals over a choice of twisted pair or fiber optic cable.
A DigitalMedia 8G+ system handles uncompressed Full HD 1080p, Ultra HD, 2K, and 4K video signals with support for 3D, Deep Color, and HDCP 2.2. Audio capabilities include the simultaneous distribution of stereo and multichannel surround sound signals, with support for high-bitrate 7.1 audio formats such as Dolby® TrueHD, Dolby Atmos®, and DTS-HD Master Audio™ as well as uncompressed linear PCM. All signals are transported over one CAT type twisted pair cable or one strand of multimode or single-mode fiber. DigitalMedia 8G+ technology enables wire distances up to 330 feet (100 m) via DM 8G+® (DM 8G over twisted pair copper wire)[5,10], 1000 feet (300 m) via DM 8G Fiber (DM 8G over multimode fiber)[6,10], or 7.5 miles (12 km) via DM 8G SM Fiber (DM 8G over single-mode fiber)[7,10].
The DM-MD8X8-CPU3 provides full support for Crestron DigitalMedia 8G+ devices as well as all first-generation DM CAT[8,10] and DM Fiber[9,10] products, letting you take advantage of the latest Crestron DigitalMedia 8G+ technology without compromising your existing investment.
DigitalMedia 8G+ technology is designed using HDBaseT Alliance specifications, ensuring interoperability with other HDBaseT certified products. Using DigitalMedia 8G+ technology, the DM-MD8X8-CPU3 can be connected directly to an HDBaseT compliant device without requiring a DM transmitter or receiver.
High-performance H.264 streaming capability enables enterprise-wide distribution of HD content over an IP network. Streaming expands the capabilities of a DM system by removing all distance limitations and allowing distribution to virtually any device — anywhere in the world. Streaming is an essential component of any complete DM system, allowing for high-definition signal routing to Crestron touch screens, digital signage displays, remote buildings, and global offices without requiring any new or dedicated wiring. Large-scale streaming to computers and mobile devices can be facilitated through integration with a streaming media system such as a Wowza® or Kaltura® media system.
A DigitalMedia system with streaming affords the ability to distribute any combination of sources to virtually any device anywhere. Each streaming output supports resolutions up to HD 1080p at bitrates up to 25 Mbps. Built-in scaling enables fast, trouble-free switching between sources of any type or resolution up to 1080p or WUXGA. Audio support includes stereo signals, as well as multichannel audio signals downmixed to stereo via any "DSP" type input card. High-quality video and audio is maintained using high-performance H.264 video and AAC audio compression. The encoded video and audio can be output as independent RTP streams or encapsulated in an MPEG-TS (MPEG-2 Transport Stream) container. HDCP management ensures that protected content cannot be distributed via streaming.
The DM-MD8X8-CPU3 can receive streaming signals as well as transmit them. Streaming input capability enables IP cameras and other H.264 encoded sources to be distributed via DigitalMedia alongside HDMI and other non-streaming sources. It also allows DM switchers to be bridged together across a campus or around the world, enabling simplified routing of HD content between buildings and global offices.
A DigitalMedia system provides many deployment options to address a wide range of streaming applications and accommodate each organization's specific IT requirements. A DigitalMedia system with streaming supports both unicast and multicast, with or without RTSP (Real Time Streaming Protocol). Streaming connections can be configured to stream directly to one or more specific IP addresses, or to use RTSP to manage the configuration of numerous connections automatically.
A streaming input or output may be configured to stream via the CONTENT LAN or LAN port of the DM switcher or via a dedicated CONTENT LAN port of a DMC Series input or output card. Control and content can be combined on a single network or can be isolated onto separate networks.
The DM-MD8X8-CPU3 features a modular architecture with 8 input card slots and 4 dual output card slots. Each card slot on the DM-MD8X8-CPU3 is field-installable, allowing for easy and flexible system configuration with the ability to make changes to the system as needs change. A wide selection of input cards is offered to support a complete range of digital and analog AV signal types including HDMI, DVI, Dual-Mode DisplayPort, SDI, RGB/VGA and analog video, SPDIF and analog audio, HDBaseT, H.264 streaming, and all types of DigitalMedia. Available outputs include all types of DigitalMedia, as well as HDBaseT, HDMI, analog audio, and H.264 streaming.
An HDMI "pass-through" output is provided on every input card to allow the inputs of up to five DM switchers to be daisy-chained, enabling the configuration of very large distribution systems with many outputs. Using five DM-MD8X8-CPU3 switchers, it is possible to support up to 40 separate outputs.
Not to worry — Crestron QuickSwitch HD technology manages the keys for every HDCP-compliant device in the system, maintaining continuous authentication for each device to ensure fast, reliable routing of any source to any number of display devices.
Crestron Auto-Locking technology enables super fast signal switching by instantaneously configuring every device in the signal path as soon as the signal hits the first device. Whether switching between sources or TV channels, Auto-Locking technology significantly reduces the time it takes each device to sense the new signal and configure itself to handle the changes, virtually eliminating any noticeable gap while switching.
DigitalMedia technology eliminates such conflicts by managing the EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) that modern digital devices use to communicate their capabilities. Via Crestron Toolbox software, the format and resolution capabilities of each device can be assessed, allowing the installer to configure EDID signals appropriately for the most desirable and predictable behavior.
High-performance scaling capability can be added to any DM system using select output cards and DM receivers with built in HD and 4K scalers. By placing an independent scaler at every display device, DigitalMedia technology truly delivers the most flexible and user-friendly solution for routing multiple disparate sources to many different display devices. This "Distributed Scaler Approach" ensures an optimal image on every screen no matter what sources are selected. Distributed scaling allows a high-res computer source to be viewed on any display in the building. It also allows an SD, HD, or Ultra HD video source to be viewed simultaneously on the 4K display in your theater and on lower resolution displays throughout the house.
HDMI technology is the key to handling 7.1 surround sound formats like Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Atmos, and DTS-HD Master Audio. Great for your high-end home theater, but how do you share that same source with other audio zones in the house?
DigitalMedia technology provides the answer, allowing for the simultaneous distribution of multichannel surround sound and two-channel stereo signals from the same HDMI source. Using a choice of "DSP" type input cards, the DM-MD8X8-CPU3 employs onboard digital processing to derive a stereo downmix from the original multichannel signal. Both signals can be routed separately or simultaneously from any of the switcher's DM outputs, allowing either signal to be selected for output at each DM receiver location.
Back at the switcher, the digital stereo signal is also converted to analog to enable sharing with every other room in the house via a Sonnex® Multiroom Audio System or any other audio distribution system. The DM-MD8X8-CPU3 also allows surround sound processors and amplifiers to be located centrally instead of at the display location via optional local HDMI outputs.
In addition to transporting digital video and audio, a DigitalMedia system can also extend 100 Ethernet out to each display and source device via select DM receivers and transmitters, providing high-speed connectivity for any room device that requires a LAN connection. Ethernet is also utilized internally by the Crestron control bus to manage the DM devices in the system and provide display control in each room.
To streamline its implementation on a corporate or university LAN, the DM-MD8X8-CPU3 employs Private Network Mode to provide a single-point connection for the complete system. Using Private Network Mode, the DM-MD8X8-CPU3 requires just one IP address for the complete DM network including all connected DM receivers and transmitters.
Along with video, audio, and Ethernet, a DigitalMedia system also provides for the routing of USB HID (Human Interface Device) signals, allowing a USB HID compliant keyboard and/or mouse at one location to control a computer or media server at another location. USB HID connectivity is provided through select DM receivers, transmitters, and input cards.
Crestron also offers USB extenders to enable the routing of virtually any type of USB peripheral to any host device, all managed through the DigitalMedia system. Connect a USB over Ethernet Extender host module (USB-EXT-DM-LOCAL ) to each computer, media server, game system, annotator, and any other host that you want to control or communicate with. Then, install a device module (USB-EXT-DM-REMOTE) at every display location to connect keyboards, mice, game controllers, whiteboards, flash drives, Web cameras, and mobile devices. Every module communicates with the DM switcher over the local Ethernet network or via a direct connection to the LAN port of a DM transmitter or receiver.
The primary objective of every Crestron system is to enable precisely the control desired for a seamless user experience. DigitalMedia technology provides an alternative to conventional IR and RS-232 device control by harnessing the CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) signal embedded in HDMI. Through its connection to the control system, the DM-MD8X8-CPU3 provides a gateway for controlling many devices right through their HDMI or HDBaseT connections, potentially eliminating the need for any dedicated control wires or IR emitters.
Via the front panel or using Crestron Toolbox software, every step of the DM-MD8X8-CPU3 setup process is designed to be quick and easy, configuring inputs and outputs automatically while letting the installer make intelligent design decisions along the way. The switcher even tests and measures the length of each DM cable, automatically making the appropriate calibrations for optimal signal transmission to every room. An entire DigitalMedia 8x8 system can be commissioned in under an hour.
The DM-MD8X8-CPU3 also includes a built-in web server that allows functions such as Ethernet configuration, routing, and firmware upgrades to be performed.
Refer to the DigitalMedia Resources Webpage at http://www.crestron.com/dmresources for additional design tools and reference documents.
All output types are configured in pairs except for streaming (a single streaming output occupies the space of two outputs of any other type). To configure a complete DM switcher with output and input cards, use the online DigitalMedia Switcher Configuration Tool. Current DM switchers use DMC-series "single-gang" output cards. For older DM switchers with DMCO-series "multi-gang" output cards, use the online Output Card Additions and Upgrades Tool to update your existing output cards and switcher to the new single-gang output card format.
Configuration of input cards, output cards, and endpoints is not supported.
4K60 4:4:4, HDR, Ultra HD, and HDCP 2.2 are currently supported over HDMI, DM 8G+, and HDBaseT using select input and output cards. Refer to the specifications for each input/output card and each connected device for its full capabilities.
The maximum cable length for DigitalMedia 8G+ or HDBaseT is dependent upon the type of cable, the choice of input/output card, and the resolution of the video signal. Refer to the "Maximum DM 8G Cable Lengths" table for a detailed overview. Crestron legacy cable models DM-CBL DigitalMedia Cable and DM-CBL-D DigitalMedia D Cable support the same resolutions and cable lengths as CAT5e. Shielded cable and connectors are recommended to safeguard against unpredictable environmental electrical noise which may impact performance at resolutions above 1080p. DM 8G+ is compatible with HDBaseT Alliance specifications for connecting to HDBaseT compliant equipment.
Refer to the Crestron DigitalMedia System Design Guide, Doc. #4546, for complete system design guidelines. All wire and cables are sold separately.

How To Plan Your Great Honeymoon Destination When


For those last minute shoppers, we've gathered up a list of the perfect Valentine's Day gifts.
If you know what your partner's favourite film is, why not organise a night in? If you accompany the evening with a copy of film's poster, it shows you've gone that extra mile and have given special thought to what makes your partner happy.
Simple, diamond, geometric, colorful, gold, delicate or eccentric. Whatever your partner's taste or style, you'll find all the jewelry you need at auction!
There's no question florists can make stunning arrangements of bouquets of flowers, however these only last for so long – and not to mention the price goes up astronomically around the 14th.
If you take this idea and apply it to a painting, you get a gift that lasts a lifetime (and quite the romantic gesture).

The Cross Legged Knight
Candace Robb
England 1371: a solemn convoy wends its way into York. William of Wykeham, Bishop of Winchester, is bringing home the remains of Sir Ranulf Pagnell, patriarch of a powerful local family, who has died in France. But the family hold the bishop responsible for Sir Ranulf's death, and ill feeling surrounds his arrival. An accident in the grounds of York Minster nearly kills the bishop.
Then, only a few days after, his townhouse is found ablaze. When the body of a young woman is discovered in the undercroft of the house, scandal threatens to destroy Wykeham. The Archbishop of York, John Thoresby, asks Owen Archer for his help.
The one-eyed spy is troubled. Was the fire an accident or arson? Was the woman trapped or the fire started to conceal a corpse? Stationing guards in front of the smouldering remains, he starts to ask questions. When it appears the dead woman was a midwife known to many of the city's women, including Lucie, Owen's wife, his quest becomes personal.
