Identities, Diversity and Inclusion (IDI)
Incremental housing is a gradual process whereby residents incrementally improve or extend their houses by themselves, whenever funding or time becomes available. This approach has attracted attention as an affordable way of improving poor living conditions in slums often with sites-and-services scheme. In many cases, this approach is coupled with an emphasis on self-help sweat equity, which can be strengthened by active community involvement. This study seeks to suggest a way of combining a scheme of empowering self-reliant communities with incremental housing. Based on the lessons from previous slum upgrade projects in Jinja, Uganda, this study points out the necessity of 1) more sustainable approach with self-help incremental housing than one-time grant-based projects, 2) an assisted way of empowering community and providing training schemes, 3) a temporary shelter for original dwellers who are affected by slum upgrade projects, and 4) an inclusive scheme for tenants who are frequently ignored in many slum upgrade schemes. This study proposes a 'Self-Reliance Centre (SRC)', which is designed to function as a space for community empowerment, a training centre, and a temporary shelter for incremental housing scheme in slum upgrade. As an assisted self-help approach, the SRC in incremental housing has a feature of initial involvement by public sector to invite eventual self-reliance of communities for sustainability in incremental housing.

The Community Mortgage Lenders of America (THE CMLA) supports the efforts of Congress to ensure veterans who were harmed by herbicides, such as Agent Orange, are provided the best medical care possible.
We are concerned, however, that the funding provisions in last year's Blue Water Navy Veterans Act would have resulted in veterans and armed service personnel losing the earned benefit of a VA mortgage because of unaffordable, increased G-Fees to pay for the required medical care.
The bill proposed increased fees on first-use and subsequent-use VA loans with no down-payment to 240 basis points (bps) and 380 bps of the loan amount, respectively, and fees on loans with a 5% or 10% down-payment would rise to 175 bps and 145 bps.
At that time, the CBO estimated that raising the VA guarantee fees would decrease direct spending by $1.1 billion over the 2019-2028 period, but at what cost to veterans who might want to use their mortgage guaranty benefit?
Increasing VA fees for first-use veterans from 215 bps to 240 bps and raising the fees for subsequent-use veterans from 330 bps to 380 bps could make some VA mortgages the most expensive of all US housing programs. Increasing the G-Fees for the VA Loan Guaranty Program such as the effort in last year's Blue Water Navy bill or for any other "pay-for" use, will certainly hurt a veteran's ability to access his or her earned benefit and to purchase a home.
THE CMLA and its members are dedicated to providing mortgage programs for veterans and their families, by serving all communities throughout the country. As midsize and small lenders, we take pride in being a part of each community served and ensuring veterans receive the opportunity to purchase a home. Unlike the "too big to fail" banks, our members have continued to serve veterans in small and midsize markets while others only focus on large areas without regard to the families in less populated areas.
As we continue to focus on all veterans' ability to purchase their first, or subsequent home, it is imperative that they do not have the burden of overcoming a disproportionate level of fees and equity position when buying a home.
Given that VA mortgages are zero down-payment, veterans and active duty servicemembers usually capitalize these fees into the mortgage, which means they are in a negative equity position for a longer period of time. By increasing fees, the Congress would make it much more difficult for these homeowners who may want, or be required, to move.
Despite their low-risk profile, higher fees on subsequent use loans, would make VA mortgages expensive, and may make the program unusable for many veterans and servicemembers, removing an earned benefit for these individuals and families.
We, the undersigned understand the importance of the earned benefit of home ownership for veterans and will continue to strive to provide superlative service in each market we represent.
Additionally, the VA itself has expressed the same concerns we have provided within this letter.
THE Community Mortgage Lenders of America, and the undersigned companies below, thanks you for the opportunity to present our viewpoint.


Front wheels with dynamo hubs, 28 inch / ETRTO 622 size. This is the wheel size used on most town bikes, touring bikes and racing bicycles. The ETRTO number specifies the diameter of the rim and is found on the side of your tyres (see description).
Two different dynamo hubs are available, with and without the mounting for a roller brake. Both types have the same electrical output, 6 V 3 W compatible with all combinations of the front and rear dynamo lights that we sell. Performance is similar, so the choice should come down to whether you need the roller brake mount.
All dynamos, whether hub or bottle, have the same output: 6 V 3 W. Any of our front and rear dynamo lights can be used in combination with one of these wheels, or you can use just a dynamo front light in combination with a rear battery light. See our guide to choosing and installing dynamo powered bicycle lights.
You will need to apply rim-tape to prevent damage to your inner tube.


38, DaChuan St, Nantun Dist.
Among many veteran late-night Taichung partiers, the top "go-to" place has long been 18TC, widely considered the city's premier club. That status is borne out by the fact that it's best to arrive earlier rather than later, because by around 12:30 a.m. the lines to go in often get long.
Inside, guests are greeted by massive doors leading to the bar and dance floor. As one might expect, the club is a fairly dark, with colorful lighting effects beaming through the air as energetically as the music pounding through ample speakers around the venue. You'll likely spend most of your time on the floor, usually packed with beautiful women and sharply-dressed young men, with the lighting and music adding to the blissfully chaotic ebb and flow of gyrating bodies.
18TC plays electro, house, hip hop and Top 40 music, varying from night to night. There are also two separate areas—the main room, usually focusing on mainstream music, and a more lounge-like, upscale second floor mostly playing house and disco. Each of the club's eight resident DJs has a different style, but there aren't set days for specific styles. Generally, hip hop is played from 11 p.m. to 12:30, followed by mainstream music to 3 a.m. and an open format from then to 4. There are also different parties every month with themes like rock, disco or Mardi Gras and customers invited to dress accordingly.
The first-floor bar features an extensive selection of spirits, beers and cocktails (NT$200-600), while the upstairs bar has additional premium liquors and specialty drinks. According to resident DJ Pyro, 18TC is currently the only pay-per-drink club in Taichung, which gives it an older, more upscale crowd. However, right now there is a special summer promotion on Wednesdays that includes "bottomless" beer until 1:30 a.m., and admission that day also includes a free entry for either a Friday or Saturday of the same week along with two free drinks.
Light snacks and other food are also available, as are reserved 10-20 person table areas. Ask at the club about pricing, but basically there's a NT$5,000-10,000 minimum bill for these, which isn't a bad deal if you plan on partying at 18TC with lots of friends.


You are in charge! It's your turn to be boss. That's because you are the one who has been doing your homework. You've prepared your dog, and you've prepared yourself with information, tactics, and planning. Now you're ready to start pushing the button to teach your dog better manners and gently help it learn right from wrong concerning the top one or two things on your wish list to change.
There may be one important requirement you've forgotten to cover. It is that regardless of what you're going to do with your E-collar and your dog, you need to calmly and carefully explain your plans to your family and friends who will be around this dog from now on! Enlist their help, understanding, cooperation, and insist they follow your lead or they simply cannot interact with your dog for the next couple of months.
For instance, let's say Fido is bad about chasing cars. He needs to get broke of this bad habit or the habit may end up sending Fido to the vet office and racking up a huge bill; or maybe to his grave pushing up daisies. It can't go on. 'Sides, the neighbors are tired of it. You've noticed they've started to dislike Fido and maybe aren't quite as friendly towards you as they used to be. You're ready to do this. You don't yet know that it will be much easier than you think. But I can assure you that if you enlist the help and understanding of friends and family, it's gonna be a piece of cake.
You're prepared and you're going to be watching. Every time Fido gives chase, you're going to give him a little zap. Each time he misbehaves, the zap will be slightly larger and longer. You're going to let Fido set the pace. In other words, you're going to be as gentle as you can but also escalate the deterrent as long as Fido chooses to continue, and also after you thought you had his mind permanently changed but then realize he's still thinking about it and occasionally loses his self discipline and goes back at it. In every one of those situations, Fido CANNOT get away with misbehavior you're working on at the time! You must be extremely consistent and lay a lesson on him EVERY SINGLE TIME HE MISBEHAVES! No exceptions!!
Here's the problem. Some of your family members may think it's cute how Fido runs out there barking and biting at those tires as they zip down the street. Or they may think it's kind of cruel to zap Fido for doing what he thinks is right or fun. Remember, it's your turn to be boss. If you're in charge of Fido's behavior, you must insist that anyone who lets Fido free to chase cars MUST, ABSOLUTELY MUST have the E-collar properly attached to Fido and have the transmitter in hand and ready to deal out discipline if needed. If you diligently zap Fido four times in a week and then your wife lets him get away with chasing a car one time while you're at work, you're not only back at square one, you're in worse shape than that. Now Fido knows that even though he gets zapped sometimes, he gets his fun sometimes too. The training process is now going to take much longer and the outcome be much less certain.
Any family or friends who will not solemnly agree to abide by your wishes on this issue simply cannot have any dealings with Fido that could undermine your training program and plans. Even though some of these folks may be resistant in the beginning, usually with enough helpful explanation you can teach them that it's much better for Fido to get a little zap now and then as opposed to two broken legs or tire marks on his mashed head. Even if Fido is so fleet and agile that those are not likely happenings, one of these days one of those vehicles may swerve to try to intentionally hit him, or maybe that road will have a skim of ice on it and Fido will slip at just the wrong instant. The result won't be pretty. Besides, it's just bad manners for a dog to act that way in a community unless it's on your own property and you and your family find that behavior okay or maybe even helpful in a security sense. Other than that, this isn't a good habit for any dog.
This was just one example I picked to explain how important it is to get family and friends understanding and onboard with any training project you're doing that they could have any impact on.

Students who dream of watching their work on the big screen can now see their short films screened before films like Arrival and Moonlight.
Interested community members can submit works under 10 minutes online to Bright Lights, the free screening series hosted by the visual and media arts department. If chosen, their short will be paired up with a feature film and screened to a public audience during the semester, according to Anna Feder, director of programming.
Feder said she never had the capacity or resources to put this together until Wesley Emblidge, a senior visual and media arts major, joined the Bright Lights team.
Emblidge has been assistant facilitator of Bright Lights for three semesters. He said he has most of the shorts chosen already, but is still looking for more submissions to match with the remaining scheduled films.
One of the screenings, a documentary on the Newtown school shooting, was particularly hard to find a match for, Emblidge said. He eventually chose another documentary, a lighthearted short on a woman who does aquatic rehabilitation on dogs.
The requirements for submission are flexible, but necessary, Emblidge said. The clip must be created by a current student or faculty member or a recent graduate from the last two years. Median and Vimeo are the two preferred mediums for submission, but Emblidge said he's also looking at videos from the Emerson Film Festival. The current deadline is Feb. 28.

Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays.
Under 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315, FMCSA may renew an exemption
[[Page 798]]
the vision requirements in 49 CFR 391.41(b)(10), which applies to
drivers of CMVs in interstate commerce, for a two-year period if it
finds ``such exemption would likely achieve a level of safety that is
equivalent to or greater than the level that would be achieved absent
such exemption.'' The procedures for requesting an exemption (including
renewals) are set out in 49 CFR part 381.
Exemption Decision
This notice addresses 12 individuals who have requested renewal of
their exemptions in accordance with FMCSA procedures. FMCSA has
evaluated these 12 applications for renewal on their merits and decided
to extend each exemption for a renewable two-year period. They are:
Ricky J. Childress (AL)
Thomas E. DeWitt, Jr. (OH)
David L. Dykman (ID)
Milan D. Frasier (ID)
Harold J. Haier (NY)
Lewis A. Kielhack (IL)
Timothy L. Kelly (TX)
David Lancaster (NE)
Joe A. McIlroy (NY)
Elmer R. Miller (IL)
Richard L. Moreland (MO)
Ronald M. Scott (IN)
The exemptions are extended subject to the following conditions:
(1) That each individual has a physical examination every year (a) by
an ophthalmologist or optometrist who attests that the vision in the
better eye continues to meet the requirements in 49 CFR 391.41(b)(10),
and (b) by a medical examiner who attests that the individual is
otherwise physically qualified under 49 CFR 391.41; (2) that each
individual provides a copy of the ophthalmologist's or optometrist's
report to the medical examiner at the time of the annual medical
examination; and (3) that each individual provide a copy of the annual
medical certification to the employer for retention in the driver's
qualification file and retains a copy of the certification on his/her
person while driving for presentation to a duly authorized Federal,
State, or local enforcement official. Each exemption will be valid for
two years unless rescinded earlier by FMCSA. The exemption will be
rescinded if: (1) The person fails to comply with the terms and
conditions of the exemption; (2) the exemption has resulted in a lower
level of safety than was maintained before it was granted; or (3)
continuation of the exemption would not be consistent with the goals
and objectives of 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315.
Basis for Renewing Exemptions
Under 49 U.S.C. 31315(b)(1), an exemption may be granted for no
longer than two years from its approval date and may be renewed upon
application for additional two year periods. In accordance with 49
U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315, each of the 12 applicants has satisfied the
entry conditions for obtaining an exemption from the vision
requirements (73 FR 75803; 74 FR 6209; 76 FR 4413). Each of these 12
applicants has requested renewal of the exemption and has submitted
evidence showing that the vision in the better eye continues to meet
the requirement specified at 49 CFR 391.41(b)(10) and that the vision
impairment is stable. In addition, a review of each record of safety
while driving with the respective vision deficiencies over the past two
years indicates each applicant continues to meet the vision exemption
requirements. These factors provide an adequate basis for predicting
each driver's ability to continue to drive safely in interstate
commerce. Therefore, FMCSA concludes that extending the exemption for
each renewal applicant for a period of two years is likely to achieve a
level of safety equal to that existing without the exemption.
FMCSA will review comments received at any time concerning a
particular driver's safety record and determine if the continuation of
the exemption is consistent with the requirements at 49 U.S.C. 31136(e)
and 31315. However, FMCSA requests that interested parties with
specific data concerning the safety records of these drivers submit
comments by February 4, 2013.
FMCSA believes that the requirements for a renewal of an exemption
under 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315 can be satisfied by initially
granting the renewal and then requesting and evaluating, if needed,
subsequent comments submitted by interested parties. As indicated
above, the Agency previously published notices of final disposition
announcing its decision to exempt these 12 individuals from the vision
requirement in 49 CFR 391.41(b)(10). The final decision to grant an
exemption to each of these individuals was made on the merits of each
case and made only after careful consideration of the comments received
to its notices of applications. The notices of applications stated in
detail the qualifications, experience, and medical condition of each
applicant for an exemption from the vision requirements. That
information is available by consulting the above cited Federal Register
Interested parties or organizations possessing information that
would otherwise show that any, or all, of these drivers are not
currently achieving the statutory level of safety should immediately
notify FMCSA. The Agency will evaluate any adverse evidence submitted
and, if safety is being compromised or if continuation of the exemption
would not be consistent with the goals and objectives of 49 U.S.C.
31136(e) and 31315, FMCSA will take immediate steps to revoke the
exemption of a driver.

Jumping the Shark
Lady Jane Digby, painted by
Today we welcome a guest writer, who calls herself Lady Jane Digby's Ghost. Read a little about her inspiration, 19th-century Lady Jane Digby, here.
Lady Jane Digby's Ghost: I'm a history jock and a voracious reader, which combine to make me a prodigious consumer of European and American mysteries. I don't like cozies, but appreciate that others less hard-boiled than I do. I often consult Wikipedia while reading to get the 411 on people and places referred to in the text. After retiring––honorably––from several careers, I live in Santa Fe where I review books for Amazon, participate in our local adult education group, www.renesan.org, and hang out with my cats. I was born in 1951–you do the math.
I like series books. I really do. I like returning to old friends and accompanying them on their new adventures. And I particularly like mystery series. Give me a new volume in British author Susan Hill's masterful series starring Chief Inspector Simon Serrailler and I'm a happy clam.
But all too many authors have hung on to their once-interesting characters for one or two books too many, and it's the reader who pays the price. Literally "pays the price," as in money spent and time wasted on a book in a series that, once upon a time, was good reading but has degenerated into a mishmash.
When the author loses interest, the reader does, too. But all too often, the author doesn't realize he's lost both the series and the readers until the books stop selling.
So, who's still "got it" and who should hang the characters out to dry? These are my picks, based on years and years and years of reading.
Daniel Silva has been writing his Gabriel Allon books since 2003. They feature an Israeli spy/assassin who wants to leave Israeli intelligence and make his avocation, art restoration, his trade. But, like Michael Corleone in The Godfather III, just when he thinks he's out, they pull him back in. In Silva's case, this happens annually, as a new series book appears every summer, like clockwork.
The books are getting a bit repetitive, but they could be improved by further character development. Give Allon a kid––one who is not killed in a terrorist attack. Let Chiara, Allon's younger Italian wife, age a little, and become a little less gorgeous. Give her a haircut. Finally, kill off Shomron, who seems to be a pain in everyone's side in Israeli intelligence. Silva needs to move forward to keep me reading.
Jacqueline Winspear is the author of the "Maisie Dobbs" series. While the series started off well, Ms. Winspear seems to be losing interest in her character and the plots are becoming rote. It's difficult to explain, but Maisie was originally a nuanced creation. She was mentored by Dr. Maurice Blanche, a noted psychologist. After serving in World War I as a nurse in France, she returned to London to set up a detective agency, where she used psychological insight to solve cases. The cases in the succeeding books were well thought out. The past few books seem slapdash, though, without the careful writing Winspear is noted for. She seems to be going through the motions.
Winspear is publishing a new book in April, The Care and Management of Lies: A Novel of the Great War, that does not seem to be part of the Maisie Dobbs series. I think it's time she created another leading character and series. She's a really good writer.
"Charles Todd" is the mother/son writing team who have two World War I series, one featuring Inspector Rutledge, and the other Bess Crawford. Rutledge has been keeping my interest, but the Bess Crawford character seems to be stuck in time. She needs a major shake-up––maybe marrying her father's adjunct, who's been in love with her forever. Maybe as the Great War draws to a close, so should the Bess Crawford character. Or, as the two series are placed in two slightly different times, maybe the final book should be Bess meeting Rutledge. They do seem to have a common friend, Melinda Crawford, who is Bess's cousin and a friend of Rutledge's family, and who appears in both Todd series.
British author David Downing has run out of Berlin train stations with which to title his John Russell series. Masaryk Station, in Prague, was his last book in the series. His main characters, journalist/spy John Russell and actress Effi Koenen, have reached a natural end to the World War II and post-war period, and Downing has gracefully tied up his loose ends in a good final book. He has a new series set in World War I, with the first book, Jack of Spies, published last year. I thought it was a bit overwritten, but otherwise a good start to a new series.
Philip Kerr, with his Bernie Gunther series, keeps his character interesting by not writing the series in timely order. The books are set everywhere from 1930s Berlin, to Cuba in the 1950s, to the Russian front during World War II, and more. The reader never knows where––or when––Bernie will turn up next. That keeps me buying and reading the books. I think that his first three books, now combined in one large volume, Berlin Noir, are his best; some of the best writing about 1930s Berlin available.
Alan Furst will continue writing as long as he wants. He has built up such a following that his books sell well to readers who love everything he puts in front of them. Because he also alternates time and place and characters, his books stay fresh––though look out for his standard scene in a French bar in every book, no matter where otherwise set.
I'm a big fan of British author John Lawton, who writes the Troy series, set in London. Like Philip Kerr, he ranges his books throughout a vast period of time and there are enough characters in the Troy family that the storylines are kept fresh. (Note to American readers who also read British books: Beware when ordering Troy books from the UK. For some odd and unknown reason, Lawton's books sometimes have different titles in the UK and the US. You might see a book on a British seller's site, think you haven't read it, order it, and then be disappointed when it arrives because it is a book you've read, under a different title.)
Many readers have not yet discovered the Billy Boyle series, set in World War II, by author James R. Benn. There are eight titles in the series––like Daniel Silva, Benn publishes a book every summer––and are beginning to get a bit tired. Billy is a former Boston police detective who is a sort of enforcer for his uncle, General Dwight D. Eisenhower. As befits Billy's background, he "looks into things" for "Uncle Ike" in the European theater.
Benn has improved greatly as a writer, but he's beginning to lose me as a reader due to the repetitious plot lines. Benn also tries to write Billy a love interest, which seems to be spurious at best. He doesn't need one, and her presence drags down the story. (This is a major pet peeve of mine; love interests in books where they're not needed, but are there because the publisher feels they should be, to juice up sales.) Still, every September, I'll look to see if Benn has a new Billy Boyle title. If you haven't heard of James R. Benn, look him up; you might like his wartime mysteries.
There are many other series of mysteries and police procedurals set in England, Canada and the United States that I'd like to cover in future guest posts.
So, what authors and series will you continue to buy and read? And which ones just seem to have petered out, but the author doesn't know it? Let us know.

Ghost, I think you're my reading twin! I've been raving about John Lawton and Philip Kerr here forever, and I've grumbled a few times about Jacqueline Winspear and Charles Todd.
Unlike you, though, I've given up on the Rutledge series too. I definitely can see the appeal of that series, because the mysteries are well constructed, but I want to see the Hamish "character" fade away and for Rutledge to develop more.
I really need to catch up on the David Downing "stations" series and to check out his new book, so thanks for that prompt.
It's nice to have you as a guest and we hope you'll return!
Maltese Condor January 17, 2014 at 11:40 PM
Lady Ghost,
I tend to gravitate toward series as well. I agree with you on the sad progression in such series as the Maisie Dobbs cases and those of the Ian Rutledge series. I can tell my interest is waning when the publication of new books seem to pass me by.
I still look forward to new mysteries by Chris Grabenstein in the John Ceepak series, and the Sheriff Walt Longmire in the Craig Johnson series. I have a great stockpile of Michael Pearce's Egyptian series and his Dead Man books, and I still look forward to opening one of them. I would reread all of the Kathy Mallory chronicles if I could find the time.
On the other hand there are several series that I have given up on over the years. While I always enjoy a Sue Grafton book when I read it I haven't added one to my collection since L. unlike you the first three of the Simon Serrailer books were enough for me. Lastly Elly Griffiths and Ruth Galloway have replaced Patricia Cornwall's Kay Scarpetta in my TBR.
I could go on and on, but I won't.
Periphera January 18, 2014 at 8:53 AM
Lady Ghost, I also enjoy series because they enable authors to develop characters and their worlds. Many do get stale if the characters don't mature.
I read lighter series. Cora Harrison's Mara, a judge in 16th century rural Ireland, is a current favorite. The early books give a clear picture of her practice of Celtic law and its differences from the more punitive English system.
The late Tony Hillerman's Leaphorn and Chee series stayed fresh for me throughout, and I still look forward to a new Serailler book. I can't wait to see where Louise Penny is taking Gamache; according to her newsletter she is working on another book. I agree that Bess Crawford has grown stale.
Sister, another guilty pleasure are the three books to date in Emma Jameson's Lord and Lady Hetheridge series, which may be available as ebooks only. They are short and very funny, and I enjoy the characters.
MC, I haven't read any of the John Ceepak or Walt Longmire books; I'll take a look at them.
Thanks, all, for the interesting discussion.
Sister Mary Murderous January 18, 2014 at 11:11 AM
Georgette, that would be a very good topic: standalone book characters we'd like to see return. Right off the top of my head, number one for me would be Joe Spork, from Nick Harkaway's Angelmaker. (Yes, yes, I brought up Angelmaker for the umpteenth time!)
I have to vote with MC on Susan Hill. I read the Simon Serrailler series through #6, The Betrayal of Trust, but that was it for me. I just got sick and tired of a protagonist whom we never get a handle on, except for his propensity to pursue unavailable or inappropriate women. But the kicker for me was that book's incredibly heavy-handed treatment of its assisted suicide theme. Well, and the fact that she put a secondary character in mortal danger and just left her there.
Like Periphera, I'm always impatient to read Louise Penny's Armand Gamache/Three Pines books as soon as they appear. The latest, How the Light Gets In, earned the nomination it just got for a Best Novel Edgar Award.
Reginald Hill's Dalziel & Pascoe series could have gone on forever, as far as I was concerned. It's sad that Hill himself couldn't.
How could I forget the Peculiar Crimes Unit mysteries by Christopher Fowler? I'm always very excited about them. And for audiobook fans in the US, the last couple have been available on audio (and in an excellent performance) before being available in ebook or paper form.
Della Streetwise January 18, 2014 at 11:50 AM
Ghost, fellow Material Witnesses, I'm enjoying our discussions about series past their expiration date. For me, it's the Stephanie Plum books by Janet Evanovich. I loved up to Book Four, and then I felt as if I were trapped in a world of deja vu.
I agree with the series assessments here, although I can't comment on the Maisie Dobbs books, since I never started them.
Great Discussion Ghost and regulars. I enjoyed the Billy Boyle character and did not realize he was in a series. I'm off to find another Billy adventure.
Generally I enjoy seiries to get a better feeling for the characters.
I too am looking forward to the new Armand Gamache, if I could only find Three Pines. Series character development occassionally take turns that makes me glad Im not the guy next door to the characters. Just a little scarry. I;m thinking Kay Scarpetta and Jean Guy, Armand's second. Oh well back to my cozy.
Keep readin Keep discussin
Della Streetwise January 18, 2014 at 9:14 PM
I've been mulling over this question today. One of the keys to successful longevity is the protagonist's career. If a writer hopes to write a series about crime, it's almost imperative for the sleuth to be a PI or a cop. How often can an amateur realistically become involved in solving a crime? The additional advantage to a PI or cop is that scenarios can change. Thomas Perry is a great writer but his Jane Whitefield is hampered by her occupation: helping people disappear. There are seven books in that series and there are only so many scenarios for the plot.
Michael Connelly has two long-running series: cop Harry Bosch and criminal defense attorney Mickey Haller. They're strong characters who deal with a variety of cases. Connelly's books involve good plotting and an excellent use of Los Angeles settings and cultural details to make the books seem real and fresh.
I'm with Sister Mary on Reginald Hill's Dalziel and Pascoe series. The books were becoming more complex all the time and I too wish they could have gone on forever.
Hi everyone great series discussions. !
I will add that I love series books, it's a great way to learn about the characters lives. Although some get a little stale after the first couple books. Always a challenge to find a series that keeps me interested.
A series I like presently is Charles Todd's BESS CRAWFORD. I haven't read them on order, and I don't think it matters. They follow the same uncomplicated path of Bess. These appeal to me for just that reason. I can follow the series and Bess will be doing pretty much the same thing in different settings. These are good for when I want a less complicated story to follow. I tend not to read cozies that often, just for holidays, so the Bess Crawford series is that middle ground book for me. I will select one of the Crawford books after reading a more intense mystery. Then alternate. The Rutledge series works the same for me, although I prefer Crawford now.
I felt the same with Elly Griffiths Ruth Galloway Series, I loved the first books, THE CROSSING PLACES and JANUS STONE and SEA'S END, but by the time I read ROOM FULL of BONES, the series went south for me.
I am always looking for series suggestions, and like historical mystery series. All the books you have talked about are books I would read too. Thanks !

Ooops, I forgot to check back on my post and see if there were any comments! I guess there are. I'm so new to this and I didn't know if anyone would consider responding to what I wrote.
The point about what standalones might make good series books is an excellent one. Maybe I'll think about writing about that. Thanks again for commenting and I'll check back to see if anyone else has commented. Lady Jane Digby's Ghost.
A series I keep meaning to try is the Vera Stanhope series. I did see the first episode in the miniseries, starring the marvelous Brenda Blethyn, and liked it very much.
LJDG, I hope you'll come back with another guest appearance soon.
Georgette Spelvin January 26, 2014 at 6:48 PM
LJD's G, I echo Sister Mary when I say we hope you'll be joining us to blog again soon.
I've come down with a whopper of a cold, and that might explain why series set in the bitter winter are popping into my head. Louise Penny was mentioned; some other Canadian series I like: Inger Ash Wolfe's Hazel Micallef, Giles Blunt's John Cardinal, and Owen Laukkanen's Stevens and Windermere (Laukkanen is Canadian, but his series is set in Minnesota). These books stay interesting because there are ongoing issues that these characters deal with over time. Det. Inspector Micallef is a woman in her 60s whose husband of many years left her, she became dependent on painkillers after she hurt her back, and she's being replaced by a younger man as the police force consolidates in an effort to save money (THE CALLING begins the series). John Cardinal lost his wife, who struggled with bipolar disorder, and I'm looking forward to seeing how he copes with his new situation (FORTY WORDS FOR SORROW is the first book). Kirk Stevens is a happily married, middle-aged BCA officer who longs to be partnered once again with FBI special agent Carla Windermere because the cases she investigates are so exciting (begin with THE PROFESSIONALS).
Also, Paul Doiron's Mike Bowditch books, featuring a game warden and set in Maine, are great because that rural Maine way of life is under such pressure to change by Big Money interests on the one hand, and environmentalists on the other. Bowditch, a young single man who hates sidewalks under his feet, is an appealing character (first book is THE POACHER'S SON).
It seems to me that a character's issues—whether personal or professional—are as important as the crime that these protagonists set out to solve. I became a little weary of Ian Rankin's John Rebus. Although I love this series, I felt that Rebus's drinking/rebellious against authority stuff had gone about as far as it could go. Now that Rebus has come out of retirement but is holding a subordinate position in the force, this might be the shakeup that the series needed.
phoebes in santa fe January 26, 2014 at 7:23 PM
Thanks for the note. I am working on a couple of ideas. Your point about Rebus - I'm reading his latest on my Ipad when I travel - is spot on. I wish I had included him on the list of those series that need the chopping block.
Maltese Condor January 27, 2014 at 8:08 AM
Sister Mary,
Vera Stanhope is well worth ready.
I have been rereading some of the early Martha Grimes' Richard Jury series. The characters were interesting at the start but here again was a classic case of main protagonists stagnating in their personal lives.
I don't know, MC, I think I might argue that the fixed-in-amber nature of Martha Grimes's series is suitable. There is something so very comforting about journeying back to Long Pidd and finding everyone still hanging out at the Jack and Hammer, scheming to thwart Vivian's marriage to her Italian count while Withers mops and Dick sends around more drinks. I never want Richard Jury to find contentment or Melrose Plant's Aunt Agatha to stop pestering him.
On the other hand, I'm always ready to grab Tommy, Simon, Deb, and Barbara and crack their heads together when I read Elizabeth George. Those characters could use a session with a practitioner of the "snap out of it" school of psychotherapy.
Ah, the "Snap out of it" school of psychotherapy. It really should be used more!
Georgette,
You have made the correct diagnosis in re the Lynley crowd. I do enjoy the old gang of Martha Grimes but I want Jury to stop mooning around , and Plant as well and show a little caveman tactics towards their women instead of acting lovelorn for decades. Aunt Agatha is a pill I can swallow in the books but in the audio versions I choke on her.
I also like Paul Dorian , Mike Bowditch series. I have read the first 2 books and looking forward to the rest of his books. Unlike the C.J. Box series although they both do the same job one in Maine the other in Wyoming. I tried a couple of the C.J. Box books and somehow they don't ring true for me. They start out great and then go down hill.
I am now reading Steven Booth's Blood On The Tongue. A Copper Fry Mystery. I just started with this one and was impressed with the writing.This is a series so I hope to read more of his books.

Diversity Lab Certifies Sheppard Mullin for Mansfield Rule 3.0 Plus
Sheppard, Mullin, Richter & Hampton LLP is pleased to announce that the firm has achieved Mansfield Rule Certification 3.0 after completing the 12-month certification program, indicating that Sheppard Mullin affirmatively considered at least 30 percent women, lawyers of color, LGBTQ+ lawyers, and attorneys with disabilities for leadership and governance roles, equity partner promotions, formal client pitch opportunities, and senior lateral positions. Notably, Sheppard Mullin also achieved Mansfield Certification Plus status for the third consecutive year. The "Plus" designation indicates that Sheppard Mullin has reached at least 30 percent diverse lawyer representation in a notable number of current leadership roles.
"We continue to witness that diversity within our leadership and on our legal teams yields better and more well-rounded results," said Guy Halgren, chairman of Sheppard Mullin. "We are very proud of this certification and to be recognized for our inclusive initiatives and programs, which we work very hard to create and evolve. We remain committed to our partnership with Diversity Lab and look forward to achieving Mansfield 4.0 certification."
Rena Andoh, Chair of the firm's Diversity & Inclusion Committee and New York partner, added: "We have partnered with Diversity Lab since inception, and we've found it to be an incredibly valuable tool to hold us accountable and continue to raise the bar. This initiative is critical to making a meaningful impact towards advancing diversity and inclusion efforts within the legal industry."
Some of the key takeaways for firms that have participated in all three certification years include:
96 percent of firms said that after adopting the Mansfield Rule, their teams of lawyers participating in formal pitch meetings have become more diverse.
65 percent of firms reported that more underrepresented lawyers were appointed or elected to their Management/Executive Committee than prior to adopting Mansfield.
63 percent of firms said they have increased the percentage of underrepresented lawyers promoted into equity partnership since adopting Mansfield.
58 percent of firms reported that their lateral partner hiring pool was more diverse following the adoption of Mansfield.
The goal of the Mansfield Rule is to boost the representation of diverse lawyers in law firm leadership by broadening the pool of candidates considered for these opportunities. The Mansfield Rule Certification 3.0 evolved to include attorneys with disabilities, in addition to women, lawyers of color and LGBTQ+ attorneys. Sheppard Mullin is also one of the firms nationwide participating in Mansfield 4.0 through July 2021.
Sheppard Mullin's commitment to diversity and inclusion has been often recognized. Recent achievements include:
Named among Yale Law Women's 2020 Top Firms for Gender Equality and Family Friendliness Report and among the top four firms for LGBTQ+ Representation
Named amongWorking Mother Magazine's 2020 "Best Law Firms for Women"
Earned 100% rating by the Human Rights Campaign's 2020 Corporate Equality Index
Noted among the best firms for minority attorneys by Law360
Background on the Mansfield Rule – The Mansfield Rule is named for Arabella Mansfield, the first woman admitted to the practice of law in the United States-- 150 years ago. It was a winning idea from the 2016 Women in Law Hackathon hosted by Diversity Lab in collaboration with Bloomberg Law and Stanford Law School. It was inspired by the NFL's Rooney Rule, created by the late Dan Rooney in 2003 and now supported by his son, Art Rooney II, President of the Pittsburgh Steelers and a name partner in law firm Buchanan Ingersoll & Rooney. The Rooney Rule requires every NFL team to interview at least one minority candidate for head coach vacancies. In the years following its implementation, the number of minorities hired to fill head coach roles doubled.

Being overweight may cause more hospital admissions than previously thought
Jan 14, 2022 | Science & Technology
Individuals with higher adiposity are more likely to visit hospitals than others. Establishing the causal impact of adiposity on hospital admissions is essential in understanding the impacts of being overweight on the health system.
A new study by the Bristol Medical School's Population Health Sciences analyzes this relationship. Scientists wanted to seek the impact of excess body fat on the yearly hospital admission rate.
The study used UK Biobank data from over 300,000 adults aged 39–72, with over 550,000 in-patient hospital admissions in relation to three related exposures: BMI, Waist Hip Ratio (WHR), and WHR adjusted for BMI.
Using a method called Mendelian randomization, scientists compared the estimates from conventional epidemiological analyses to quantify how being overweight may be causally related to disease and mortality. The method uses genetic changes in the genome linked to body composition to estimate the causal effect of being overweight on a health outcome. At the same time, it removes the effects of other factors that may jointly influence body composition and hospital admission rates.
The study shows an association between a direct causal effect of higher BMI and WHR on higher yearly hospital admission rates. An adverse fat distribution in a specific area is crucial to this relation.
Overweight people were between 16 percent to 26 percent more likely to be admitted to hospital with each 0.09-unit higher waist-hip ratio than 8 percent to 16 percent with each 4.74kg/m2 higher BMI.
Dea Hazewinkel, the study's lead researcher from the University's Bristol Medical School and Population Health Sciences Institute, said: "We live in increasingly obesogenic environments with the World Health Organisation identifying 39 percent of men and 40 percent of women as being overweight, and 11 percent of men and 15 percent of women as obese worldwide. Finding causal effect estimates between fatty tissue and hospital admissions larger than those previously reported in existing studies emphasizes the necessity of exploring policies aimed at reducing obesity in the population."
"The results also suggest that a preference should be given to waist-hip ratio as a measure of body fat over BMI as this may be more important for predicting hospital admissions."

Q: Crystal Reports: "Failed to Save Document" after changing Datasource I have about 15 .RPT files on my .NET 2.0 site, and I recently changed to a new database server.
I successfully changed the Datasource on 14 of those .RPT files, but on one, after making the change, I get "Failed to Save Document" when I try to save the updated report.  I can change the subreport's Datasource, and save it just fine, but when I try to change the main report's Datasource I get that error message.
I'm definitely doing a "Verify Database" at various times throughout the process, but that doesn't seem to help.
Any ideas?

A: I had success using the following steps.

*

*Change the datasource location as usual. At this point trying to
save results in the helpful "Failed to save." error.

*Select everything on the report and delete it all. (Except for subreports or anything you can't get back using undo.)

*With any luck, you will now be able to save. If you can't try doing this inside your subreports.

*Undo your deletions and save again.

You can track down the source of the problem by changing the datasource table by table and trying to save after each change. I found that my problem lay in a subreport's table, and applied the above steps inside that subreport to fix the problem.

A: I had this issue when I added some formula fields.  I removed the fields and was able to save again.

A: Yeesh, like so many others who encounter this problem, there was no fix except to recreate the report from scratch.
I'm sorry to report that, but thems the facts. Gotta love Crystal Reports' error messages and their complete and utter lack of any details.

A: For me the solution was very simple:
In Database menu, "Set Datasource Location" option, then in the properties of the database table there is an option called "Overridden Qualified Table Name" (I think is the name in English because I'm using a version of Crystal Reports XI in Portuguese but I found in the Internet the equivalent terms in English).
I just wrote there the name of the table and I was able to save again without the "Failed to Save Document" error, so anyone thinking of recreating entirely the report from scratch should try this first.

A: I had the same problem. I used the Dependency checker which can be found under on the top under Report -> Dependency checker to resolve all invalid database references.
Then I saved all the sub report outside of my main report, and then deleted them from my main report. At this point i was finally able to save the main report.
Then I inserted the sub reports back into my main report one at time time.

A: I had the same problem.
Keep trying. After succesfully change the new datasource.

*

*Map the table (on "Set Location" menu) one by one. Not propagate all tables.

*Then "Verify Database", then

*move on "Show SQL Query...". Click reset button to renew the query.

Repeat this 3 step above to map another table.
This worked for me.

A: Another easy way is to close the unsaved report by losing the changes you made and reopen the report. Then You can repeat the same changes.

A: This could mean you have some inaccurate data variable names within your report, either a variable name has changed from your data source and no longer matches what is within the report or it no longer exists but is cached. The best way to fix would be to re create the report.

A: Download this tool: R-Tag DataSource Updater for Crystal Reports. It will update the datasource for you. You can use it for 10 reports in trial mode.

A: Remove all data , not text field and save document . then open document and drag field from database side and save it. it works!!

A: in my case there was a subreport with a pasted picture from a word document, that conflicted with saving the main report. after converting the picture to "Picture (Enhanced Metafile)" within the crystal report designer the main- and subreports could be saved successfully.

Mission: Provide solutions that get the world moving and help people lead active and healthy lives. Life Fitness says it's the global leader in commercial fitness equipment, game tables and furnishings. It is a division of Brunswick Corp.
The addition to the 10-year-old plant ultimately will bring with it more than 100 new jobs in welding, fabrication, powder coat painting and assembly. The facility had about 300 workers before the addition. Some 200 fitness products, including the Cybex Arc Trainer, are produced there.
"We are thrilled to celebrate the completed expansion to the Cybex facility in Owatonna," said Scott Darsow, vice president of global manufacturing for Life Fitness in a company news release. "This expansion is our second in Minnesota in two years, and we produce more products in the state than anywhere in the world.
The city of Owatonna is providing tax increment financing of almost $1.4 million for the project. The Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development made grants of $850,000 for job development and capital investment.
The expansion cost $11 million for construction and $22.5 million for equipment. The architect was Mohagen Hansen Architecture/Interior, Wayzata, and the contractor was Bauer Design Build, Plymouth.
Life Fitness' other plant in Minnesota is in Ramsey, where more than 140 products are manufactured. A 50,000-square-foot expansion brought the plant to 333,000 square feet in March 2016. About 460 people work there.

"Friends" is part of the NCPTA (National Confederation or Parent Teacher Association) and is a registered Charity. We are equivalent to the more readily recognised PTA (Parent Teacher Association). The only difference being, as a small community school, a Friends association means we can extend the group of people who can become members from parents/carers and teaching staff, to include anyone over 18 who wishes to help or support our school.
Our aim is not just to raise funds for the school but to also encourage and develop parent/staff involvement therefore helping support children's learning at school.
We have many events throughout the year including, our Summer Fair, Christmas Fair, discos for the children, Christmas Shopping Night and Summer Family BBQ. As well as fundraising we provide refreshments at school performances and for new parents when their children start school. We also go into school and help out when necessary with things like putting up Christmas decorations.
Some of the things we regularly part or fully fund are sports and music equipment, any other class equipment to help support teachers, Pantomime Trips and Forest Schools. We have also helped fund new dictionaries in all classes and fluorescent jackets for the cross country club.
We meet on a regular basis and are always looking for new fun ways to raise funds and bring the school, children and parents together. Our AGM (annual general meeting) is held every October which is open to everyone and is a great opportunity to see how money raised has been spent. It is also an opportunity to become part of the school community and to see how the school is run and the issues it tackles in striving to provide the best possible education for all pupils in the school.
If you would like any further details about our committee please contact the school office and a committee member will get back to you.


The Moog Minifooger MF Delay is a nice sounding delay that comes with a lot of ambiance. From short to long, spacey or slap back this minifooger can do a number of sounds with a great sound. A tone control helps keep the echoes from getting too muddy, or makes your atmospheric sounds a little dreamier.
TIME- Adjustable from 35mS – 700mS. At shorter settings, delay repeats are brighter and more articulate – perfect for slap-back and plate-style reverb/delay. As you increase the Time, the delay trails become warmer causing sounds to move and decay naturally under each new note or chord.
DRIVE- A pre-delay circuit that provides greater than 22dB of gain to both input and delayed signal. At low ranges it is excellent for creating subtle boost and mild tonal coloration. At middle position the sound becomes more mid-forward and punchy. At it maximum position, you have an incredibly natural boost/overdrive in your delay pedal that is great by itself or paired with an MF Drive.

This curry type is one of our favourite currys. Normally we have this with chicken (marinated and grilled in tikka spices-coming soon) but today's version is purely vegetarian (and vegan!). Top tip number one for making a curry… fry everything. Many years ago while learning to cook I remember watching Madhur Jaffrey explaining how to make a curry. She started off by frying the onions, then frying the garlic & ginger, then the spices. Even the tomato puree got a couple of minutes frying to release the flavours. Since then our curries have all been made following this technique with the only difference being the mixture of spices.
Top tip number 2. Caramelise the onions. The longer you cook the onions, the more they reduce, become golden and sweet and really make a curry's flavour deeper! With this we made a simple turmeric infused rice and if you've got some… some naan bread would have hit the spot.
Switch off the heat for 1 minute to allow the pan to cool a little. Push the onion to one side, add a little oil and add your spice mixture. Switch the heat back on.
Gently fry the spices for 1 minute.
Add the tomato puree and fry the whole mixture for another 1 minute.
Add the tinned tomatoes, vegetable stock, coconut cream, sweet potatoes, red/yellow peppers and the sugar and put on a gentle simmer for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Add the chickpeas and simmer for a further 5 minutes until the sweet potatoes are cooked and your sauce is at a desired consistency.
Add chopped coriander for garnish.
. how can sub these or should i not bother with this recipe since the subs are inferior?
2. The Tandoori Masala mix adds a slightly zingy taste but mainly the enhances the red colour.. should still be nice with the rest.
Hi, this is soooo good!
Yummy! I just saw this on Pinterest and had to click through. I've been searching so many vegetarian recipes and none of them looked nearly as delicious as this one! Thanks!

A new report shines a light on the toll the deadly drug fentanyl is taking on Pennsylvanians and the state's economy. Auditor General Eugene DePasquale says $25 billion a year is lost because of things like medical costs, treatment, lost productivity and criminal justice."We did determine that opioid related hospital stays for medicaid recipients cost Pennsylvania taxpayers at least $178 million in 2017."DePasquale, who says he lost a cousin to a drug overdose, says more than two-thirds of overdose deaths in Pennsylvania are related to fentanyl use. His report makes ten recommendations to ease the crisis including an end to fentanyl strips being illegal in Pennsylvania."That needs to change and the General Assembly has the power to make that happen," according to DePasquale. Fentanyl strips allow a user to test for deadly fentanyl in their drugs.DePasquale also says state officials should fund naloxone distribution programs and make naloxone, which can reverse deadly overdose symptoms, earlier for healthcare workers, opioid users, and family members to get. He also called on the state to help counties fund certifications and deployment of Certified Recovery Specialists.
