At Tenbury High Ormiston Academy we are dedicated to inclusive provision for all and provide a wealth of individual support and specialist programmes to support the needs of our individual learners. Inclusive practice in all lessons, from all staff, across the school is key to the successful outcomes of all learners that we have achieved in recent years, and in particular for learners with additional needs such as Special Educational Needs and Social, Emotional and Mental health difficulties.
Under the new code of practice, the school is legally required to publish the following information.
SEND Information Report (pdf)
SEND Policy (pdf)
SEND Code of Practice Leaflet (pdf)
As a fully inclusive school, all kinds of SEN are provided for within mainstream provision at Tenbury High. It has close contacts with support agencies for students with multi-sensory impairments, sensory processing difficulties and Autism. The Learning Support department provides interventions and extraction courses to support various learning difficulties associated with Speech, Language and Communication Difficulties, and Specific Learning Difficulties such as Dyslexia, Dyscalculia, Dyspraxia and Behavioural, Emotional and Social difficulties.
Identification of Needs, Assessment and Review
The school conducts a range of assessments to identify and assess the Special Educational Needs of each and every student.
All students on arrival at Tenbury High Ormiston Academy take part in Cognitive Ability Tests (CAT) and Reading Age learning assessments which evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of every individual in a range of skills and abilities essential for learning.
More thorough personalized diagnostic testing is completed in-house or by external agencies if necessary. These tests include; WRAT-4, DASH, Spelling and more.
All students in key stage three follow the Accelerated Reading Programme which involves regular progress checks on reading ability and comprehension
All interventions within the Learning Support Department are monitored closely and progress checked. Students and parents are invited to provide feedback on interventions they have received.
We have recently purchased Provision Map Writer to help us track the impact of the interventions we lead.
Consulting Parents
All parents of students with a Statement of Educational Needs will be invited to attend and provide feedback at their child's annual review. Regular contact will be kept with parents throughout the school year and as a minimum once per term.
All students currently on the SEN register will be allocated a link worker from within the SEND department who will conduct profile reviews and set termly targets. The link worker is available to discuss these reviews with parents each term either by letter, phone call or, if preferred, through face-to-face meetings.
The SENCO is available at all parents' evenings throughout the year, on request.
Parents are contacted throughout the year as and when required, to discuss the outcomes of learning assessments.
All parents are invited and encouraged to contact the SEND department if they feel that their child has any additional needs that require support.
Consulting Pupils
All students on the SEN register have a Student Profile of educational needs to assist teachers in individualised programmes of education within every lesson. Students have termly reviews of these profiles conducted by their link worker and have an opportunity to add ideas and tips on how to support them most.
Termly Student Profile Reviews are carried out with the students' allocated link worker from the Learning Support Team.
Students with a Statement of educational Need are invited to attend their annual reviews and provide written and verbal feedback related to their education.
The SEND Department offers an open door policy inviting students to come and speak to staff about their difficulties at any time.
The school offers a comprehensive transition package from Primary school to High School. This includes regular days at the high school as part of our transition programme and a number of small-group taster sessions for a variety of different needs and subject areas. The SEN additional transition day provides a full-day of additional sessions focusing on individual needs such as building friendships, meeting new teachers, increasing confidence and self-esteem and getting to know the general layout and day-to-day experiences of the school. Parents are invited to attend transition meetings with the SENCO for those who are equally as nervous as their child. Support for Transition to Post-16 education is also provided. The academy helps students to complete application forms, teaches interview technique, attend interviews for support and liaise with post-16 providers to transfer key information about learning needs to enable students to succeed in whichever pathway they choose. The SEND department is on hand to offer additional support with this. The school also works in collaboration with Worcestershire County Council and our external careers advisers to ensure that the most vulnerable students succeed with transition to future education.
For further details, see our Transition page
Expertise and Training
All staff within the school attend regular CPD training sessions on key aspects of Special Educational Needs teaching. These are carried out by the SENCO or other members of the Learning Support Team, each with specialist knowledge and expertise in this area. Staff also have bi-weekly updates on key changes and issues within the area of inclusion. All staff are expected to provide individualised support for all students within their class groups and have personalised information to assist them in this through the SEN Student Profile system and the academy expectations of 'Quality First Teaching'.
Our SEND Classrooms
Everyone at some point needs additional support and guidance, particularly during teenage years. Our SEND classrooms house a range of activities such as; 1-1 mentoring and counselling; Cognitive Behavioural Therapies; extraction groups, where students are able to work in smaller intervention groups with a member of staff to work on a particular aspect of their schooling or complete outstanding coursework for subjects. This enables them to receive more 1:1 support than they would be able to access in a classroom environment and therefore helps them to gain the results they are capable of.
Students with more specific difficulties have the opportunity to develop a timetable that is tailored to their needs. Our aim is to ensure that all students receive the personalised education that they deserve and require as and when barriers arise.
THOA regularly liaises with a number of external support agencies. These include:
Integrated Specialist Support Service
Medical Education Team
Early Intervention Family Support – Family support Worker
Early Help and Partnerships
Hearing Impairment and Visual Impairment Teams
Speech and Language Therapy Team
Occupational Therapy Team
Autism Outreach
Local Policing Team
Regency Outreach Support Team (disability services)
Virtual School (LAC mentoring)
RDA – Riding for the Disabled

How Cities Can Tackle Violent Crime Without Relying on Police

By Roge Karma, Vox
"Police are effective at reducing violence, but they aren't the only ones who are effective."
ne of the most robust findings in criminology is that putting more police officers on the streets leads to less violent crime. Yet, as recent police killings and violence against protesters have reminded us, policing also produces staggering costs that many communities are no longer willing to bear. These seemingly incongruous views represent a tension at the core of any efforts to reform, defund, or abolish policing.
Few scholars have wrestled with this tension as rigorously as Princeton University sociologist Patrick Sharkey. In his 2018 book, Uneasy Peace: The Great Crime Decline, the Renewal of City Life, and the Next War on Violence, Sharkey makes the case that the decline in violent crime in America over the past three decades is one of the most important social transformations of our time. At the same time, he argues the US's chosen methods for responding to violence have become far too destructive, and offers an alternative vision for public safety that relies primarily on communities and residents, not law enforcement.
We are currently being forced to confront a question that has animated Sharkey's work for years: How can we continue to reduce violence, but do so using a model that relies far less on police and prisons? That's a much harder question than simply asking whether some of the jobs police currently perform can be replaced — and it demands an even more rigorous answer, especially considering the extent to which high levels of violence can devastate disadvantaged communities.
I recently spoke to Sharkey about what's causing the uptick in gun violence in big US cities, whether there is an inevitable trade-off between reducing police presence and reducing violence, his vision for a community-driven approach to public safety (and the evidence base behind that vision), what he thinks the "defund the police" campaign gets right (and wrong), and more.
Our conversation, edited for length and clarity, follows.
Roge Karma
Can you describe the "uneasy peace" that we are currently living through?
Patrick Sharkey
Since the 1990s, violence has fallen by roughly half across the country. In a number of cities like New York, Los Angeles, Washington, DC, Dallas, San Diego, and San Francisco, violence has fallen by 70 or 80 percent. Even places we still think of as violent — Chicago, Philadelphia, Oakland — have seen violence fall by between a third and a half.
These changes have transformed city life as we know it. As violence falls, public life starts to return. Parents let their kids play outside, libraries fill up, shopping districts become more lively. Academic performance rises; young people are less likely to drop out. Families invest in neighborhoods as they become safe, and businesses return.
There's causal evidence that children growing up in cities where violence is declining are more likely to rise up in the income distribution when they reach adulthood and move out of poverty. In short, when violence falls, cities start to return to life, and the greatest benefits are experienced by the most disadvantaged segments of the population.
But the paradox is that the methods we've relied on to deal with violence — primarily aggressive policing and mass incarceration — have had staggering costs. They have left millions of Americans enmeshed in the prison system with consequences that affect not only the people who are involved in the system but also their families and the next generation.
For several decades now, we've asked police departments to dominate public spaces through any means necessary. The police violence that has become so visible recently is a function of that task; the controversy, the attention, the unrest, the anger toward policing is a response to a strategy to reduce violence that has been intact for several decades now.
That's what I mean when I'm talking about the peace being uneasy: Violence has fallen, but we need a new method to address it going forward.
That's a good segue into our current moment. Multiple cities are currently experiencing a sharp uptick in shootings and homicides — some of which is being blamed on efforts to delegitimize police authority and reduce police presence. So I'm wondering: Is that the trade-off we face? If we try to scale back policing, is rising violence the inevitable byproduct?
It's not an inevitable trade-off.
To be clear, there is a pattern of violence rising in the aftermath of these kinds of high-profile protests against police brutality. This happened after Freddie Gray in Baltimore, after Michael Brown in Ferguson, and it's clearly happening now. But that doesn't mean that protests against police cause violence to rise. It also doesn't mean police are the only institution capable of confronting violence. It means that when we rely primarily on police to respond to all forms of violence and then police stop playing that role, neighborhoods become destabilized.
That happens for a few different reasons. One is that police make a conscious decision to step back from their role in being the primary institution responsible for public safety. That might happen due to increased scrutiny on policing. It might happen due to shifts in policy, like the fact that NYPD dismantled their plainclothes anti-crime units that respond to many serious forms of violent crime. It also may happen because law enforcement is slowing down intentionally to make a statement.
A second piece is that residents may be less likely to work with the police, defer to the police, or cooperate with investigations. Young people may come to the conclusion that this city doesn't care about me — I'm not playing by the rules anymore. People obey the law when they believe it's legitimate; when the belief in the legitimacy of this institution is undermined, that can result in a rise of violence.
None of this implies people should stop protesting police brutality. It means that the methods we've historically used to reduce violence are unsustainable, and we need to start thinking of a strategy for confronting violence that relies a lot less on those methods.
Let's talk about that strategy. Can you paint me a picture of what an alternative model of public safety would look like that didn't rely so heavily on police?
There's a basic conclusion from the research on what creates safe neighborhoods: Police are effective at reducing violence, but they aren't the only ones who are effective.
There's lots of evidence telling us that other core institutions in a community — institutions that are driven by residents and local organizations — can play a central role in controlling violence. But we've never thought of these organizations and residents as the central actors responsible for creating safe streets, so we've never given them the same commitment and the same resources that we give to law enforcement and the criminal legal system. When we talk about how to respond to violence, the default response in the US is always to focus on the police and the prison.
The next model should be one driven primarily by residents and local organizations as the central actors. Police still certainly have a role to play, but responding to violent crime takes up only a tiny fraction of police officers' time. So the idea here is that we can rely on residents and local organizations to take over most of the duties that [officers] currently handle and make sure neighborhoods are safe.
The critique you'll often hear on this is that the evidence base for some of these community-based methods for reducing violent crime is not nearly as robust as the evidence base behind policing as a way to reduce violent crime. How do you respond to that?
I agree that the research on the effectiveness of policing on crime is strong. But the motivation for developing a new model for how to deal with violence is the observation that while police may have been effective in controlling violence, that has come with significant costs, which aren't accounted for in any of those studies. It's come with the type of aggressive, and sometimes violent, policing that I think most of the country is no longer willing to tolerate. Policing as a method to confront violence is now seen as unacceptable by a large chunk of the population.
I would also dispute that the evidence base for the alternative approach focused on community actors and institutions is not as strong. We now have a pretty well-established base of evidence telling us that residents and local organizations are at least as effective as the police in controlling violence.
The programs run out of the Crime Lab at the University of Chicago, all of which are run as randomized controlled trials, are extraordinarily effective. The Becoming a Man and Choose to Change programs, which rely on a combination of mentoring and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), reduce participants' involvement in violence by about 50 percent. Summer jobs programs have led to over 40 percent decreases in violence.
The READI program, which provides adults most at risk of becoming a victim or perpetrator of gun violence with transitional employment and CBT, is currently under evaluation, but the early results have shown extraordinary potential. Community-based programs that redesigned randomized abandoned lots in Philadelphia to become public spaces reduced violence in and around those lots by around 30 percent.
The Cure Violence programs, which have been cited as if they always work, do have a more mixed evidence base. I think it is important to be very transparent about that — they don't work every single time. Still, this can be a very effective model. Programs in New York, Baltimore, and elsewhere have been rigorously evaluated and shown to be extremely effective at reducing violence.
There's also national data on this. I carried out a study on the role that the expansion of the nonprofit sector played in contributing to the crime drop. What we found was that in a given city with 100,000 people, every new organization formed to confront violence and build stronger neighborhoods led to about a 1 percent drop in violent crime and murder. So the expansion nonprofits focused on building stronger communities and working against violence played a big role in contributing to the crime drop.
The evidence base for a community response to violence is at least as strong as the evidence base for policing. That's why I don't really think it's about the evidence base — I think it's about a mindset. In America, policy discussions about violence focus so intently on the police and the prison as the default responses. We've been investing in these methods for so long, it's all we know — it's hard to even imagine a different response to violence.
I want to talk about that mindset. In Uneasy Peace, you talk about our historic approach to issues like violence, poverty, and inequality as one of "punishment and abandonment" and warn that if we focus on only addressing the "punishment" side of things but ignore making investments in abandoned communities, then reform efforts will ultimately fail.
I think this framework applies to conversations around "defunding the police." If the goal is to just reduce the injustices that come with policing, then slashing police budgets works great. But it strikes me that this strategy could also lead to an uptick in overall violence levels if it's not paired with investments in alternative mechanisms for reducing violence.
Can you walk us through that broader framework and how it may apply today?
Calls to defund or dismantle the police are really about how we deal with an institution that is seen as racist and anti-democratic; what I've argued for is to shift the focus toward how we can most effectively create safe and strong communities. When we make that shift, it forces us to think about not just how to scale back police shootings but what active steps need to be taken to make sure that communities are safe and everyone is welcomed.
For the past 50 years, our model of responding to concentrated urban poverty has been abandonment and punishment. We've ignored the challenges of urban inequality and responded by scaling up the policing and prison systems. Over time, there has been a recognition of the injustice those systems, so we've moved toward a model that is trying to gradually scale them back. That means we have moved away from a focus on punishment and toward a focus on justice. But if we just focus solely on justice, then we're going to end up with a situation where communities don't have the basic investments that they need to be strong, stable, and safe.
That's my motivation for a different approach: to focus not only on justice but also on the investments that are needed to create safe neighborhoods. I agree entirely that just scaling back the budgets of police departments is going to leave us with neighborhoods that are more vulnerable to a rise in violence. That's why I make the case for investments in a different set of institutions driven by residents and local organizations that can play a central role in creating safe streets and strong communities.
That's the step we haven't taken. We started the conversation about scaling back the excesses of law enforcement and the criminal legal system. But we haven't had the conversations about the investments that are needed to make sure neighborhoods are safe and no one falls through the cracks.
Let's have that conversation. You've called for "a demonstration project that is both more cautious and more radical than the call to defund the police." Can you outline that for me?
Instead of calling for a rapid change where we dismantle police departments and immediately shift all police responses to other entities, the idea here is to try to maintain stability in communities at a time when violence is rising, but also start to plan for what an alternative model for dealing with violence might look like.
There are a few steps. Begin with a community within a city where the police are not seen as a legitimate institution — where residents are looking for an alternative to law enforcement. There has to be buy-in from the community where this is implemented and it has to be driven by members of that community. Second, establish a "community quarterback": a single coalition of organizations that are brought together and see it as their responsibility to make sure all public spaces are safe in their community.
Third, provide funding to that organization equal to what law enforcement would be provided in that precinct. For instance, each of Washington, DC's 50-plus police service areas receives, on average, about $10 million per year to fund a workforce of roughly 80 full-time employees for a population of around 12,000. That's the kind of commitment I'm asking for: the same level of commitment that we give law enforcement. For far too long, we've asked community groups to mobilize to respond to violence on the cheap, often without any resources or compensation.
Then allow this new organization to decide how it wants to hire, train, and deploy its resources to deal with all of the incidents that that police departments currently deal with: mental health crises, young people dealing drugs, small-scale altercations that occur outside bars or other hot spots, drug addiction.
Lastly, make a long-term commitment to this new coalition; I'm calling for a 10-year commitment. Give it a chance to fail. Give it a chance to go through scandals and mishaps and bumps along the way, and know that it's still going to be there in 10 years. There's no easy way to respond to every challenge in a community. There's gonna be problems along the way. So it's really a mayor and a funder that have to be willing to go through these challenges and stick with an organization.
Now, communities may decide that there are places where armed responders are still necessary, like gun violence, and could choose what kind of relationship they want with the local police department accordingly. But in those places, we could imagine a model where even for situations where police are first to respond, they would need to respond with a member of this community coalition with them. Then, for all other 99 percent of incidents, the members of this coalition would be the first to respond to incidents in public space.
That's the proposal: Give an alternative coalition of residents and organizations a chance to play a central role in creating a safe community and give them the resources that we devote to law enforcement. I just have to believe that, based on the evidence we have, that coalition would be at least as effective as law enforcement, and would come without the costs of law enforcement.

MOTOROid YAMAHA#IS THIS THE FUTURE
NEW INTELLIGENT BIKES
MOTOROid is a smart bike which is powered by AI and designed by Yamaha which not only race but could do many more things just than a normal bike. We all know that Artificial Intelligence is making technology not only smart but also making machine learning more enhanced, So here is one more smart technology based Bike which has been recently came into existence and made by Yamaha and had been displayed in moto expo 2018 in India before it was also shown in one of the Tokyo motor show in 2017.
Yamaha says that MOTOROid is like a robot which could directly contact with the owner and can be started with just an owner's hand gesture and can be fully controlled with gestures and hand movements. MOTOROid has some image and gesture recognition technology to check the right owner and facial recognition feature which help in identifying the right movements with the use of Artificial Intelligence and machine learning and with various algorithms it will come to a better result.
MOTOROid is a fully electric bike with 6 lithium powered cells and an electric motor which will be fully functional without any fuel. The best part about this bike is that MOTOROID can auto balance itself with the help of Active Mass Center controlled system which divides this bike into two parts and with various technical methods withstands it balance and move by itself if needed .
MOTOROid also has self build GPS and monitoring system with projectors and digital Led screens to monitor everything so you don't have to worry about the route that means you can't be lost and has various security features and built in power backup system which Yamaha says makes it one of the best and Futuristic bikes of all time .As it is one of the first of bikes and new type of concepts which uses Artificial Intelligence and machine learning which has been used in them.
MOTOROid could be very effective in terms of safety if designed properly or could be a weapon like in the Terminator Salvation. It can take on the fuel bikes but will take time and could be a better option in the future. It can be a life saving for our running out fuels like fuel efficient cars and scooters, which are already dominating the world and making a huge impact on the people from the makers like Tesla ('s new electric cars).MOTOROid could be one of them but better and intelligent as it is powered with AI and ML.

Q: How to get the port number of client in rmi? In RMI the server opens the registry on some port and then the clients connects to the server. Is there any way knowing on which port the connection is made between the server and the client?
I know the default port for RMI is 1099 but what is the port number on the client side? Does the client even opens a port?

A: The client does have a local port, as in any TCP connection, but there is no way for the server to discover it short of a custom socket factory.
There's also no reason for the server to need it. It's not a useful piece of information. It's not a listening port, so you can't connect to it; it changes from time to time; and it doesn't uniquely identify the client, because of client-side connection pooling and server-side idle connection timeouts.

Lanxess has commissioned two new production lines for Tepex continuous-fibre-reinforced thermoplastic composites at the site of its wholly owned subsidiary Bond-Laminates in Brilon, Germany.
Tepex is becoming increasingly popular in the automotive industry for the large-scale production of lightweight structural components such as front-end and bumper brackets, brake pedals and underbody panelling components. One recent example involved two electrically adjustable single rear seats for a variant of the Audi A8, whose seat shells are manufactured in a hybrid moulding process using the polyamide-6-based Tepex dynalite. The seat shells are around 45 per cent lighter than a comparable metal version.
"We have increased our capacity for manufacturing Tepex by around 50 per cent, and in doing so, are responding to the strong demand in the mass production of highly stressable components for lightweight vehicles and consumer electronics," says Dr Christian Obermann, managing director of Bond-Laminates.
To accommodate the expansion from six to eight production lines, a new hall covering around 1,500 square metres was constructed. The total investment ran to the mid-single-digit millions and also comprised the installation of three cutting machines, including a new four-head waterjet cutting machine for prefabricating component cuts.
Lanxess also sees potential for Tepex to be used to produce backrests and armrests as well as seat shells for new, highly complex seating concepts in autonomous cars or for comfort seats for shuttle, VIP and family buses. Electric vehicles offer further attractive potential for Tepex.
"The spectrum of applications ranges from brackets for frontends, doors and bumpers, luggage compartment recesses, battery housings and brackets for electrical and electronics modules through to structural components in the 'greenhouse' section and structural trims in the underbody area to protect the battery," says Henrik Plaggenborg, head of Tepex Automotive at Lanxess.
Typical applications of Tepex in consumer electronics include the thin-walled yet exceptionally strong and rigid structural components for cellphones, tablets, laptops and TVs – components that also have to meet strict aesthetic requirements regarding design and haptics. In the sports sector, Tepex is also used in the manufacture of shoe soles, bicycle components, ski boots, body protectors and helmets.

So tomorrow I am starting the forever living clean 9 detox plan. Wish me luck!!
So far since having Jude I have been trying to following my own clean eating plan and it's been going really well. It's been 9 weeks since I had any sugar and cutting out chocolate has been a massive achievement for me believe me!
I now feel that I need a boost and so that's why I've decided to do the clean 9. The plan is then to go back onto my own clean eating plan afterwards which I have to say has been easy to follow and I've not been hungry! I've done the clean 9 twice before and had great results both times so I know it works.
I feel that the detox is a great boost to clean out the system and I've always felt great on it.
So Im feeling good and really motivated, for me and indeed for most people it's very much about my mental attitude, if I'm in the right zone mentally then I can do anything!
I will keep you updated as to how I'm feeling over the 9 days so keep an eye on my blog.

The Peavey Foundation bass was manufactured from 1983 to 2002, with its golden period occurring during the '80s, yet it continues to attract loyal fans today. A look at its history and features make it clear why it continues to resonate with musicians.
A Timeline of the Peavey Foundation Bass
The history of Peavey began when Hartley Peavey, who still owns and runs every detail of the company today, began taking electronics classes and tinkering with music gear in the '50s. It is now one of the largest music companies in the world with over 180 patents. Hiding unobtrusively in all of Peavey's storied success is the humble but well-loved Foundation bass.
1955: A young high school student named Hartley Peavey inherits his first set of hand tools from his grandfather, and he begins studying electronics.
1959: During his senior year in high school, Peavey pencil sketches a logo on a piece of paper that becomes the famous Peavey logo now seen worldwide.
1961: Peavey builds his first Peavey-branded amplifier in the basement of his parents' home.
1965: In the loft above a music store called Peavey's Melody Music in the town of Meridian, Mississippi, Hartley Peavey establishes the Peavey Electronics Corporation.
1972: After seven years of rapid growth and astonishing success with his "quality gear at a fair price" business philosophy, Peavey's output exceeds 2,000 units per month. The company becomes the second largest manufacturer in the U.S. in the audio electronics industry. In the late '70s, it expands into everything from innovative speakers and power amplifiers to the first electric guitars made using computer numerical controlled (CNC) machinery.
1981: By this time, Peavey is making guitars that are being used by everyone from Carl Perkins to the band Journey. The company makes ready to expand further into the bass guitar world as well.
1983: Peavey releases the first Foundation bass, which is marketed as an inexpensive but high quality bass that is good enough to compete with Fender but at a much lower cost. Their bodies are made of maple wood with a slim neck and two single coil pickups and interesting colors such as Inca gold. Players describe the Foundation bass as Peavey's answer to the Fender Jazz bass--a full-bodied, high output "beefed up Fender Jazz," as one collector describes it.
1983-2002: Peavey releases a few more versions of the Foundation, including models such as the Foundation 4, the Foundation 5 (which is a 5-string) and the Foundation 2000. Peavey discontinues the Foundation line in 2002.
Features of the Peavey Foundation Bass
As the Blue Book of Guitar Values notes in the link above, the basic Peavey Foundation bass setup had the following features and options:
Offset double cutaway poplar body
Bolt-on maple neck
21-fret maple fingerboard
Black dot or pearl dot inlays
Rosewood fingerboard
Fixed bridge
34 inch scale
Graphlon nut
Four-on-a-side tuners
Two single coil pickups
Two volume knobs, one tone knob
Basic colors such as Gloss Black, Gloss Red, Sunburst, or Gloss White finish and other exotic colors in other models such as Inca Gold
Why Bassists Love the Foundation
As Foundation bass player communities note, players love the Foundation bass for its bold tone that sounds as good as a Fender but differentiates itself from both the Fender Precision and Jazz. Players also love its light weight (unlike Peavey's ultra-heavy T-40 bass), its simple but durable design, affordable price, and quality USA-made manufacturing.
True, it has a no-frill aesthetic. It doesn't jump out at you visually, but the craft and quality comes out in the sound and the comfortable playing experience.
Other features that shine on the Foundation:
The patented neck was made out of select rock maple that resisted warping and was mounted to the body of the guitar with four screws that made the bass feel extremely solid and stable.
It featured a high-quality Graphlon nut and a southern ash body with double cutaways that allowed players access to the highest frets of the guitar with ease.
In the '90s, Peavey made a few changes to the Foundation that were not as popular with some players:
The headstock became less pointy and more rounded than the '80s Foundation models.
The body wood changed to alder instead of ash.
Later Foundation models in the '90s and early 2000s featured a 5-string bass and a fretless model.
Where to Buy a Peavey Foundation Bass
It's never easy to find instruments after they have been discontinued, but fortunately used bass guitar websites exist that sell a continuous stream of old Foundation bass guitars. The following online outlets are reliable places for finding constant listings of used Foundation bass guitars. However, you will never find a site that has hundreds or even dozens of used models as you might find with Fender Precisions. This means visiting many sites rather than combing through dozens of pages on one site.
Though they are hard to find, there's good news: you will notice as you peruse the stores below, Peavey Foundations are cheap, ranging between about $90 to as high as about $400:
Reverb: One of the most high-trafficked and well-run vintage guitar and bass shops, it has a regular stream of Peavey Foundation basses available to browse for a nice range of prices in good to excellent condition.
eBay: This virtual auction house reaches millions of people who are trying to buy and sell everything you could ever imagine, including a fair amount of Peavey Foundations, about as high in volume as Reverb.
Guitar Center: This household name for musical instruments features many used listings on its site. Though the selection is not usually large for Peavey Foundation, it consistently has a handful of them listed.
MusicGoRound: This site usually has a handful of Foundations in stock, and you can choose to either buy in-store (if the store listing the bass is near you) or buy it online.
BuyA: This eBay-like marketplace regularly has at least a couple Peavey Foundations in stock. The site has some interesting features, such as its "price range" graph that shows you how the price of the Foundation has gone up or down over recent weeks. You must create a free profile first, however, before you begin shopping.
RockNRollVintage: This will be your last stop on your search because it doesn't always have Peaveys, but occasionally a rare one comes in like an old Foundation. You must click on the "Used" section under its list of bass brands and search the pages. You just might get lucky and find a Foundation.
The Lesser Known Hero of the Peavey Story
Peavey might not be famous because of the Foundation bass or regard the instrument as the diamond in its legacy, but thousands of bassists see the Foundation as one of Peavey's crown jewels-the ugly duckling of Peavey products that didn't catch anyone's eye in the beginning but eventually attracted an enthusiastic cult. If you're looking for an affordable bass that has a little something extra under the hood, check out the Peavey Foundation.

DIGITAL RESIDENCY
© Goethe-Institut Cairo
Studio TakhshĪna ستوديو تخشينة
In December 2020, the Goethe-Institut Kairo opened "Studio TakhshĪna ستوديو تخشينة" to support independent artists looking for a space to work on their projects or present their work to an interested audience.
Application deadline: September 24th, 2022
If your application is accepted and the studio time you requested during the period from September 30th 2022 to December 20th 2022 is available, you will receive a confirmation email from our team over the course of September 2022.
Dossier anzeigen
In response to this challenge, the Goethe-Institut will open its auditorium "Studio Takhshīna ستوديو تخشينة" in Bustan to independent artists/groups to work on their artistic processes in a work space environment that is fully equipped and will be open for the full year.
In Egyptian colloquial Arabic, the word "Takhshīna تخشينة" describes an item you use to aid the functionality and stability of a household item like a wobbly table or a door that is missing a piece to regain either its original mobility or function.
It is our objective for this project to provide the same kind of aid to the independent art scene in Egypt, which is why we chose the name that inspired this meaning from the very heart of the Egyptian culture and everyday life.
THE GOETHE-INSTITUT IN BUSTAN
When Ahmed Mohamed Mazloum Pasha came to Cairo in 1920, he had a villa built in the exclusive residential area of Bustan. The plans for the construction came from the French architect Roulan and all materials except the bricks, that are still forming the dominating architectural feature, were imported from France. To this day, Ahmed Mazloum Pasha's initials are engraved on the main entrance.
The 1959 cultural agreement between Republic of Egypt and the Federal Republic of Germany enabled Germany to buy this house in 1961 for the Goethe-Institut. Since then, the building has witnessed many historical moments and has become a landmark cultural hub in the company of other cultural institutions in Downtown Cairo. The building's event hall will now serve the art scene as the "Studio Takhshīna ستوديو تخشينة".
We offer the room as rehearsal and working space, for meetings and workshops and whatever other format comes to mind for artists/groups, who are looking for either a space or venue. The room can be made available for a fixed duration.
It may be arranged to open the studio up for a small public event by the end of the studio time, if the artist/group wishes to present their work/work in progress.
Room and Equipment
The event hall has an overall space of 85 sqm and is based on the mezzanine floor of the building. The room that is equipped with a parquet floor and can be separated in the middle. Artists will find a projector, a sound system, light system, a black box film screen, 2 pin walls and additional workshop material if needed. Studio TakhshĪna can be equipped with 4 tables, a stage for 6 people and 35 chairs for the audience.
Technical rider (PDF, 217 kB)
One additional note: As the building is also used for the Goethe-Institut's language courses, the studio's operations must not conflict with the language course operations, i.e. music volumes must not interfere with the regular operations of the language department.
Egypt-based artists/groups from different artistic disciplines are welcome to apply. (Please note that: while artists/groups from outside Cairo are welcome to apply, the Goethe-Institut will not be able to assist with accommodations or other logistics outside the use of the studio space)
Artists/Groups should submit a short note explaining
What the room would be used for
The dates for which they would like to use the room, since we will try to make the room available for as many artists/groups as possible, precise information will help us reconcile need and availability.
A short background to the artist/group
Users have to abide by and respect the house rules during their stay in the premises.
Near the end of the work period, we will ask for a reporting and evaluation session from the artists.
A visitor from the cultural department team of the Goethe-Institut Cairo may be visiting during working hours for assessment and follow-up purposes.
To apply, please follow this link to the application form

Microsoft has released an update for the Microsoft OCS 2007 R2 Attendant.
The problem was with both Communicator and Attendant installed and running on the same computer, and is now fixed.
Microsoft has release an updated version of the Live Meeting Outlook Add-in. The new version is called 8.0.6362.128.
After installing Communicator Web Access on a Office Communications Server 2007 R2 Front End server, the CWA page is not displayed when access the CWA URL using Internet Explorer.
No error is shown when accessing the URL of the CWA web site. Only a blank page is shown, without any error message.
Reading the IIS log files shows that no activity is generated by the client requests.
This error is caused by the insufficient rights of the CWAService account used by the application pool. To verify that this is the problem, access the application pools in IIS manager and modify the Identity of the application pool to LocalSystem (this is for test purpose only) Now verify that the page is displayed as it should and that login is possible.
To fix this the easy way is to remove the Communicator Web Access installation and delete the CWAService Account. The reinstall the CWA component and recreate the CWAService account by using the setup program.
After you install Communicator Web Access (CWA) on the Office Communications Server (OCS) front end server, Office Communicator is unable to synchronize address book.
Users are prompted to enter username and password to access the address book web service, but none are accepted.
After clicking cancel you then see in Office Communicator that the address book failed to download.
To solve this issue, you need to recreate the SPN records for the RTCComponentService account. There are several ways to do this, but I always use the GUI.
On a Domain Controller, Open "ADSI Edit" MMC console. From here locate the RTCComponentService users object (default in the "Users" container). Right click to access Properties. In the object properties page, locate the ServicePrincipalName attribute.
After the server boots, address book synchronization should work again.
Please note that it is no longer supported to have CWA on the Front End server. In fact CWA must always be on its own server.
Reading through the article I can understand the argument, but I think there should be an override option in the server configuration.
Please post your comment below if you have experience on this subject.

Rolf Nelson, Sherri Conklin, Laura Parker, Jason Reiss; Holes are perceived as shaped in a speeded perceptual task. Journal of Vision 2010;10(7):1156. doi: 10.1167/10.7.1156.
A surrounded region perceived as a hole presents an interesting case for figure-ground perception. Previous experiments have demonstrated that the shapes of holes are remembered nearly as well as objects (Palmer, Davis, Nelson, & Rock, 2008), although according to classic figure-ground theories, the region in front should receive a shape description. Others have suggested that holes would not receive a shape description in a speeded perceptual task (Bertamini, 2006). To address this possibility, in the current experiment participants made a speeded perceptual judgment (4AFC) about the matching shape for either a hole or an object, and when they were given either the surrounded shape or its complement. Results clearly show that, contrary to predictions that the shape of the front region should always be perceived, participants were faster when matching the shape of the hole than in matching the shape of its complement (that is, the edge belonging to the surrounding region that was in front). These results are discussed in terms of a functional visuomotor theory of why the shape of holes might be perceived.

Q: fullcalendar - pass in locale variable How can I pass I18n.locale to fullcalendar, so that the calendar language changes if user changes the I18.locale?
My js:
  return $('#event_calendar').fullCalendar({
    events: app.vars.events,
    locale: 'I18n.locale' )}

('I18n.locale') does not work and renders default language instead.
Application_controller:
I18n.locale = Tenant.current_tenant.try(:locale)  || I18n.default_locale

A: I don't know how ruby works and i am absolutely not 100% sure but i think if you pass 'I18n.locale', your're passing the string "I18n.locale" try removing the quotes and also make sure the fullCalendar locales are included in the project like documented here

1:20,000,000.
Accuracy of map:
Map was created using herbarium specimens and maps of scale 1:17,000,000-1:25,000,000.
The projection:
"Alber's Equal Area Conic for Russia", 9, 1001, 7, 100, 0, 44, 68, 0, 0.
Basic contents:
Map is a vector file consisting of polygons and points. Locations of the species are represented by points, while the areas of possible distribution of the species are represented by polygons.
Accuracy of qualifier:
Points represent locations of the species referenced in published sources and from which herbarium specimens were taken. Polygons are based on generalized information from published sources and herbarium specimens.
Method of map construction:
The data on species distribution were obtained from the database of species locations, the Information Retrieval System, "Wild-growing relatives of cultural plants of Russia" (NTC "Informregister" № 0229905883, 1999), and published maps in Schmidt (1990), Krasnoborov & Malyshev (1988), Malyshev & Peshkova (1979), and Kharkevich (1989). The species has a disjunctive area. The western border of the largest polygon was determined using Schmidt (1990). The northern border of this area was determined using Krasnoborov & Malyshev (1988) and information from herbarium specimens. This information is kept in the IRS database. The eastern border was extended based on information from herbarium specimens and Kharkevich (1989). The southeastern border was adjusted using Kharkevich (1989). In Primorski Krai and Kamchatka, the borders of the small polygons were determined using Kharkevich (1989). In Western Siberia, the borders of this polygon were mapped using Schmidt (1990). In Eastern Siberia and the Far East, individual locations of this species were not included in the polygons.

Q: Function in the script file not getting called In my script.js I have this:
$(function () {
   function addColors(basicColors) {
      ...
   }
});

And in HTML:
<head>
<script src="scripts/script.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
   ...
<script>
   ...
   addColors(basicColors);
</script>
...

But in console i am getting
Uncaught ReferenceError: addColors is not defined

The script file is correctly referenced as other functionality defined in that file is working just fine.

A: It's a scope issue. addColors is defined as a local function within the anonymous function being passed to jQuery to execute when the page loads (in $(function() { ... })). Outside that function, addColors isn't defined.
If you want addColors to be global, you can define it before the $(function() { ... }) in script.js.

Q: map.on('singleclick',function(evt){}); is registering many times when single click is called I'm calling this function for first time and single click, it works fine but if I call same function map on single click again then it is registering multiple time(I checked using alert);
var flagforClick = false;
function getData() {
    if (flagforClick == false) {
        flagforClick = true;
    }
    else {
        flagforClick = true;
    }
    map.on('singleclick', function (evt) {
        alert("called");
        if (flagforClick == true) {
            document.getElementById("tab_content").innerHTML = "";
            document.getElementById("dataGrid_tab").innerHTML = "";
            totalLayerDataSelectionSelection = [];
            totalheaderSelectionSelection = [];
            var headerdataSelection = [];
            var infodataSelection = [];
            layerSelectionforList = [];
        }
    });
}

A: You may call getData() function inside singleclickevent when has a feature at clicked pixel. Hope this sample will help you.
var map = new ol.Map({
    layers: [
        new ol.layer.Tile({
            source: new ol.source.OSM()
        })
    ],
    target: 'map',
    view: new ol.View({
        projection: 'EPSG:4326',
        center: [49, 40],
        zoom: 8
    })
});

var layer = new ol.layer.Vector({
    source: new ol.source.Vector({
        features: [new ol.Feature({
            geometry: new ol.geom.Point([49, 40]),
            id: 1,
            name: 'My Point',
            day: (new Date()).getDay(),
            month: (new Date()).getMonth(),
            year: (new Date()).getYear()

        })]
    }),
    style: new ol.style.Style({
        image: new ol.style.Circle({
            radius: 15,
            fill: null,
            stroke: new ol.style.Stroke({ color: 'red', width: 1 })
        })
    })
});
map.addLayer(layer);

map.on('singleclick', function (event) {
    // getData(event.coordinate);

    map.forEachFeatureAtPixel(event.pixel, function (feature, layer) {
        getData(feature.getProperties());
        // getData(layer.getProperties());
    }, {
            hitTolerance: 5
    });
});

function getData(data) {
    console.log(data);
    console.log(data.id);
}

A: You can set your function to a variable and only add it to the map if you haven't already.
let clickHandler;
let flagforClick = false;
function getData() {
  if (flagforClick == false) {
    flagforClick = true;
  } else {

    flagforClick = true;
  }

  // only add the handler if it's undefined
  if (!clickhandler) {
    clickhandler = function(evt) {

      alert('called');
      if (flagforClick == true) {

        document.getElementById('tab_content').innerHTML = '';
        document.getElementById('dataGrid_tab').innerHTML = '';
        totalLayerDataSelectionSelection = [];
        totalheaderSelectionSelection = [];
        let headerdataSelection = [];
        let infodataSelection = [];
        layerSelectionforList = [];
      }
    };
    map.on('singleclick', clickHandler)
  }
}

Another nice thing is that this is now easily removeable. Just call
map.un('singleclick', clickHandler)

Fighting Breast Cancer: One Black Woman's Clinical Trial Journey

When Tracey Easton was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer in 2013, she spoke to three medical oncologists to discuss her treatment options. The third oncologist told Easton that since she fit the criteria for a chemotherapy clinical trial, she should consider joining it. "When I first heard clinical trial, I said [to myself] 'oh no, I don't want to play around with this,'" Easton said. "[I was] just scared that I wouldn't get the proper treatment." The oncologist gave Easton materials about the trial to review, and assured her that regardless of her decision to join it or not, she would receive good care.
Easton says she was surprised to be asked to join a clinical trial–especially so early in her treatment. "Clinical trials are for everyone. Some people think that it's for women who are out of options. It's really not true," said Michelle Esser, Program Manager, Advocacy and Research for Young Survival Coalition. "You can be newly diagnosed with breast cancer and be eligible for a variety of different trials."
"Younger African American women are more likely to be diagnosed with late stage [breast] cancer than other populations," said Stephanie Reffrey, Managing Director, Evaluation & Outcomes, Susan G. Komen. "But across all age groups, there's a disparity. Reffrey says that Komen has roughly 66 clinical trials that have recruited African American women, but more still needs to be done. "It's challenging in general to get people to participate in clinical trials," said Reffrey "but especially in the African American population there's a lot of distrust for very good reasons."
Certainly there have been great advancements in treatments for breast cancer, but additional research needs to be conducted to determine how effective new drugs are: if survival will be improved, if it will kill the cancer or reduce side effects. Different ethnicities need to be included in trials to see how effective they are across the board. It is imperative that Black women participate in trials, so that treatment is targeted for Black women—as it stands, studies show higher death rates among Black women as compared to White women.
Easton's initial reservations about participating in a clinical trial echoes what some in the African American community still feel because of cases like the infamous Tuskegee syphilis experiment. However, after conducting research, speaking to other health care professionals and conferring with her family, Easton decided to join a chemotherapy clinical trial. Since then, she has participated in three other studies, trials including one that focused on acupuncture as a potential way to alleviate chemotherapy related side effects.
Today, Easton has been deemed "cancer free". And while she remembers initially feeling devastated by her cancer diagnosis, she knew that she would eventually find ways to give back to others. "Once I got over the shock of even being diagnosed with breast cancer, I had to think of ways to help [other survivors]," she recalls thinking. "This was something terrible and I was scared, but [eventually I thought about] what can I do to contribute to this. How could I help?"

The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit is Dontnod's heartwarming new story set in the Life is Strange universe. Instead of focusing on teenage drama, the game centers on a child with an imagination vivid enough to, seemingly, come to life.
Though it occupies the same world as Max and Chloe's, Captain Spirit is a standalone story. A lonely boy named Chris lives as an only-child to a father who neglects him. In order to entertain himself, he turns to the world of make-believe. However, his fantasies seem to manifest beyond his thoughts, suggesting Chris may have posses supernatural abilities–a trademark element of Life is Strange. Dontnod states that the game acts a precursor to Life is Strange 2, a project that still has not been formally unveiled. Also, Captain Spirit appears to be a one-off installment as opposed to being a season of episodes.
You won't have to wait long to play along with Chris. The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit launches June 26 and will be completely free to download. The game is slated to release on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC.

- 'The Powerpuff Girls' are back after 10 years of dormancy. Find it on Cartoon Network at 6pm.
- 'The Odd Couple' returns for a second season on CBS at 8:30pm.
- 'Catastrophe' is back for a second season on Amazon.
- Season two of 'Outlander' drops on Starz at 9pm.
- 'The Girlfriend Experience' debuts on Starz at 8pm. It's a series about expensive call-girls and their clients.
- 'Fear The Walking Dead' is back at 9pm on AMC. This series was picked as one of my Top 5 Best New Shows of 2015. The slow-burn of the series managed to drop the viewership numbers, but hopefully those numbers will raise now as the dead are walking more.
- 'Dice' is a new semi-autobiographical sitcom with Andrew "Dice" Clay. As someone that found his standup as funny as hearing children cry, I may avoid this series because of my low expectations. Interested parties may catch the series on Showtime at 9:30pm.
- We say goodbye to one of the, in my opinion, biggest waster of time in television history… 'American Idol'. Why anyone wasted their time watching glorified Karaoke singers on national television was beyond my comprehension. I say good riddance.

The True Mindset of a High School Senior As College Decisions Begin
The Small Business Struggle in Wake of COVID-19
Olivia Solomon, Advertisement Chair
COVID-19 has created a worldwide pandemic, forcing millions of people to use social distancing and self-quarantining to flatten the curve of this virus. As a result, no one can casually walk into their local bookstores for a browse or stop by their favorite restaurant for a bite to eat. In the past month since the pandemic reached the U.S., small businesses find themselves suddenly empty without funds to pay bills or give their employees a paycheck.
As a result, local restaurants and other small businesses have taken matters into their own hands by providing delivery or pick-up service only. However, this situation still proves a scary time for small businesses everywhere.
For Katerina Albanis, Maria's Greek Restaurant does not only serve as a job for her and her husband, but a family tradition that started with her grandmother in 1982 and immerses the entire family in their Greek roots.
"The ability that a small restaurant business can be a part of a community's character and interact with their neighbors on both a business and personal level is something remarkable," Albanis said. "I believe all the diversity of cuisines offered on Coral Way alone gives the neighborhood flavor and a sweet homey feel. Everyone has a story to tell and is living an American dream."
As these local businesses struggle to stay afloat, social media and the news continues to encourage people to remember the significance of locally-owned small businesses and support them by taking advantage of delivery services and pick-up options. These establishments serve the community around them and offer a friendly and familial service that tends to lack in business today.
"Anyone who walks into Maria's — or any local restaurant — [knows that] the staff is polite, the owner is present and friendly and customers always feel welcome," Albanis said. "When you get to know small businesses, you'll find a variety of nice gestures and wonderful surprises — the owner slips you an extra dessert or glass of wine, the waiter or waitress remembers all of your special family milestones."
While businesses like Maria's Greek Restaurant continue to try their hardest to complete deliveries and maintain some sort of revenue, this remains catastrophic for all small businesses, and another month of this new normal can come with devastating consequences.
"Business is down 80-90%. We are trying to be patient and take it day by day. We remain open to serve our kind and loyal customers and to retain our employees. But, we are not making any profits and barely covering expenses," Albanis said.
Another local business, Dream Dinners Pinecrest, continues to prepare frozen meals for families and give them a home-cooked meal as their mission from the beginning. However, this proves no easy task, as the world and manufacturing has dwindled down over the past few weeks.
"We have been impacted in many different aspects. With processing plants and manufacturers closing and downsizing on a daily basis, we have had to constantly adapt to fulfill our orders," owner Nina Ortiz said.
As this pandemic rages on, businesses muddle through with hope and a positive outlook for the future. But they cannot do it without the help and support of the communities they serve.
"There is no denying this is a scary and unpredictable time. The only things we can do [are] stay positive, keep taking every precaution and continue providing a much needed service," Ortiz said. "Continue shopping with your local businesses. Follow them on social media to stay connected and choose to put your dollars towards their services over a large chain. Small businesses are the heart and soul of a community."
