Chicago 911 Police Dispatchers Trained In Mental Health Awareness Following LeGrier Incident
Allen James Dinglasan
Update Date: Feb 27, 2017 10:32 AM EST
911 is the emergency telephone number for North American Numbering Plan (NANP). Just like other emergency numbers around the globe, this number must be called for emergency circumstances only.
In Canada and the United States, any person calling 911 using a telephone will be transferred to an emergency dispatch office called a Public-Safety Answering Point (PSAP). After receiving the call, PSAP can send some emergency responders to the location of the caller if there's an emergency happening. In an estimated 96 percent of U.S. residents, the Enhanced 911 system connects caller number with physical address.
In Chicago, all the dispatchers and call takers in the 911 police operations center have undergone a mental health awareness and de-escalation training, as per Chicago Tribune. The main objective of this training is to improve on the way the dispatchers and call takers respond to crisis situations.
Deputy Director of 911 operations Dionne Tate said that since the training, the awareness of their employees has been heightened and they already know what to look for.
The mental awareness and de-escalation training was developed by Office of Emergency Management and Communications of Chicago and collaborate with National Alliance on Mental Illness Chicago and Chicago Police Department, as per NBC Chicago. The training was announced Mayor Rahm Emanuel after a fatal shooting of Quintonio LeGrier and neighbor Bettie Jones two months ago.
LeGrier called for help through 911 telling that someone was threatening his life. But the agents who answered the call didn't send a police right away until the third call by LeGrier. One of the officers, LeGrier and - by mistake - Jones were all killed during that incident. Because of this, two 911 dispatchers were suspended without a pay because they failed to send police when LeGrier call for a help.
In a report released last month, U.S. Department of Justice said that the incident is clearly a failure in crisis response systems of CPD. The failure includes dispatchers who did not recognize that LeGrier may be mentally ill and the officers who respond in the incident didn't use techniques in crisis prevention.
Tate said that the call center employees working in 911 department will go through an annual refresher mental health and de-escalation training.
On the other hand, OEMC, Fire Department and Police Department will start a new pilot training program this spring. The focus of the training will be improving collaborations for treating and recognizing someone that is experiencing a mental health emergency.

New Music: A New Single From Clinical Trials Is Free For You!
Brooklyn two-piece Clinical Trials have released a new single — a dark, rocked out version of Coldplay's "Yellow" — and for the next week they're giving it away to Autostraddle readers for free!
Clinical Trials are two very talented women, Caryn Havlik and Somer Bingham, the latter who is a new addition to one of my favorite bands, Hunter Valentine as well as one of Riese's favorite television shows, The Real L Word. Some of you may remember Clinical Trials from the time when I reviewed their awesome EP, Bleed Me, and likened it to a panther. They're an act to keep your eye on.
Could someone tell me up to download the track on a Mac? The control + enter option didn't work.
Much love for bands/artists who give their music away for nada.
My girlfriend was born in Brooklyn but she likes Miley Cyrus, so that should indicate how she would react to this cover. Well, it certainly is a twist and far from Alex Park's cover of "Yellow". I happen to like dance music but venturesd into the dark passages of rock are persersly refreshing to me after listening to all the young diva's who hardly vary from each other. I mean after a while Kesha sounds like DEV who sounds like Katie who sounds like Karmin and none of them sound like King Daddy Lang.
Since I work in a job that means I actually deal with clinical trials from time to time, this title was confusing for me.

Drink driver was arrested while waiting at a McDonald's drive-thru
Oliver Beumkes also had cocaine on him when he was caught in the queue at the restaurant in Pool
Mike Smallcombe
A Hayle man was arrested for drink driving and possession of cocaine while waiting at a McDonald's drive-thru.
Oliver Beumkes, of Churchtown, Gwinear, appeared at Truro Magistrates' Court on Monday (July 9), where he pleaded guilty to possession of a Class A drug and driving while over the alcohol limit.
Police were called to the McDonald's on Trevenson Road, Pool, in the early hours of Friday, June 22, following reports about Beumkes' driving.

On arrival officers saw a red Peugeot 107 parked in the queue for the drive-thru and blocked the vehicle in so the driver could not flee.
Oliver Beumkes was arrested while in the McDonald's drive-thru queue in Pool
Beumkes, 24, was driving the vehicle and subsequently failed a breath test, blowing twice the legal drink drive limit (75 microgrammes of alcohol in 100 millilitres of breath).
Following a search officers also found 0.35 grams of cocaine in his pocket.
Beumkes was arrested and taken into custody, later telling officers he had forgotten that he had the cocaine in his possession.
He told the court: "It was a genuine mistake and I'm terribly sorry."

Beumkes was fined £300 for each of the two offences, and must also pay a £30 victim surcharge and £85 in court costs.
The magistrates' bench also disqualified him from driving for 20 months.
He was offered a drink driver's rehabilitation course, which if completed will reduce the length of the ban by five months.

With a combination of moody lyrics and saucy live performances, English singer-songwriter Natalia Kills has become one of pop music's most captivating new artists. She burst onto the scene in 2010 with "Mirrors"—a pitch-black disco-pop track that peaked at #3 on US dance charts. Her latest single, "Wonderland," is equally dark and moody, but there's a sliver of hope that shines through.

The IRS recently stated that it is giving serious consideration to potentially easing the burden for banks and other withholding agents (including U.S. branches of foreign banks) that are required to start collecting foreign taxpayer identification numbers (FTIN) next year. Several means of relief are under consideration, including reducing the number of taxpayers for whom a bank or withholding agent would be required to collect an FTIN, allowing for the staggered collection of FTINs and permitting FTINs to be collected orally or in writing.
The FTIN requirement was first introduced in final and temporary regulations issued last year, but was delayed until Jan. 1, 2018, in response to comments from industry that it was overly burdensome. See TD 9808, REG 103477-14, REG 134247-16. The rule requires non-U.S. persons who are beneficial owners of financial accounts or investments at U.S. financial institutions and U.S. branches of foreign financial institutions to provide a tax withholding certificate (i.e., Form W-8) with the FTIN issued to it by its jurisdiction of tax residence or an explanation of why an FTIN was not provided or the non-U.S. person will be subject to withholding at a rate of 30 percent of payments and distributions of certain U.S.-sourced income received on or after Jan. 1, 2018. Understandably, many companies collected new W-8 forms without FTINs from investors and accountholders late last year after the forms were revised in April 2016, but before the FTIN requirement became effective and are cringing at the thought of having to approach investors and accountholders again for more information.
In a June 2, 2017, letter to the IRS, the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA) expressed concern over the ability of financial institutions to collect Forms W-8 from investors and accountholders by the Jan. 1, 2018, deadline. Of particular concern was the potential for an excessive, and unexpected, amount of withholding that could result if these institutions were not able to collect the required information in time. Based on recent comments by an IRS spokesperson, it appears that the agency is listening to these concerns.
Allowing more time and flexibility for withholding agents to cure or remediate IRS Forms W-8, withholding forms that, if not for the FTIN requirement, would otherwise be valid. The IRS mentioned this could be accomplished via a staggered approach to the collection of FTIN numbers, such as requiring the information to be collected when Forms W-8 are renewed.
Allowing withholding agents to collect the required FTINs orally or in writing.
Reducing the types of taxpayers for whom FTINs would be required. One example provided by the IRS was the possibility of limiting the FTIN collection requirement to taxpayer from jurisdictions with which the United States has information-exchange agreements.
While these comments do not alter the current requirement for withholding agents to begin collecting FTINs before Jan. 1, 2018, they foreshadow potential relief. The IRS comments also demonstrate the IRS' willingness to listen, and potentially consider, public comments and concerns regarding the administrative burden of these new rules.
Banks and other withholding agents should continue preparing to begin collecting the required FTINs under the current rules by Jan. 1, 2018, but should watch carefully for any potential relief the IRS may provide in this area. Foreign taxpayers with accounts or investments at U.S. financial institutions or U.S. branches of foreign banks should also take note, as failure to provide an FTIN to the applicable institutions could result in unexpected and excessive withholding.
For more on information, please refer to REG 103477-14, REG 134247-16 and the IRS FATCA - FAQs General webpage.

Raised on oatmeal and catechism to establish US supermarket chain
Samuel Robinson from Ballymoney built a supermarket empire in America
Published: 10:42 Tuesday 15 October 2019
The main story here today, e-mailed from Canada by Ballycastle-born regular contributor Mitchell Smyth, is about one of the many memorable Ulster folk who left Northern Ireland and plugged into history in far-away places.
But first, thanks to an eagle-eyed News Letter reader, let's return for a moment to last Wednesday's account of Tourism NI's ongoing 'Taste the Island' celebration of local food and drink.
An Acme supermarket n New Jersey
I mentioned Nobel Laureate Seamus Heaney's lines, etched on the doors of the lift outside a cookery demonstration in the Elk restaurant complex near Lough Neagh.
Our internationally-renowned poet's words, from his poem 'Bogland', adorned the lift's doors beneath the title of the poem and an etching of a hand clasping a quill.
"The hand as shown on the doors," a reader's e-mail pointed out "is that of a left-handed person" - correctly observed!
"But to the best of my knowledge," added the e-mailer "Seamus Heaney was right-handed, at least it seems to be so in photographs of him signing his books."
Nobel Laureate Seamus Heaney's poem on the doors of the Elk's lift.
Astounded at both the reader's literary awareness and sharp eyesight, I checked this out on a number of newspaper cuttings and it's true, unless Heaney was ambidextrous!
Three or four portraits show him at his desk, with a pen in his right hand, and similarly at several book-signing sessions, one in Poland in 1996.
I don't know which hand Northern Ireland's historic chain-store magnate Samuel Robinson wrote with, but Mitchell Smyth told me about his origins and business successes.
"To Samuel Robinson with a mother's blessing - Proverbs 3: 5-6."
A Blue Plaque marks where young Samuel Robinson worked in a grocery store at Main Street, Ballymoney
These words were written on the flyleaf of a Bible given to young Sam when he left Ballymoney for America in 1888.
The full blessing read: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways ask Him and He shall direct your path."
His mother had told him to read the Bible daily, which he did for the rest of his life, keeping it in his office desk and reading a portion at the start of work every morning. He expressly believed the exhortation "ask Him and He shall direct your path."
Historic Belfast Presbyterian church bought by Limerick-based Roman Catholic institute
Son of clergyman who became top academic and high level politician
That path led Samuel Robinson to become a tycoon in the grocery trade, building a single shop in Philadelphia into an empire - the American Stores Company/Acme Markets - which currently runs 3,300 supermarkets in 38 states.
There's a blue plaque on a wall in Main Street, Ballymoney, recording that Robinson worked in a grocery store there (now demolished) before leaving on an emigrant ship from Londonderry at the age of 23.
And on Newal Road there's a more concrete reminder - the Robinson Memorial Hospital, which he gifted to the town.
It was built, in 1933, and fully equipped, all paid for by Samuel Robinson and dedicated in memory of his late parents. He continued to endow 'the Robinson' richly until it was taken over by the NHS after WWII. The 25-bed hospital is now an in-patient rehabilitation facility.
Samuel Robinson was born at Culcrum, County Antrim, in 1865, to Samuel and Margaret Robinson, a strict Ulster-Scots Presbyterian family. He would later say he was raised on "oatmeal and the Shorter Catechism."
At the age of 17, he was apprenticed to his uncle, William John Megaw, who ran a grocery and coal shop where the plaque is erected in Ballymoney.
Aged 23 he emigrated to America and worked in a Philadelphia grocery store, for up to 80 hours a week. His take-home pay was $15 a week.
After paying his rent he saved the rest, scorning (as he later said) frivolities like "minstrel shows, vaudevilles and penny arcades."
The Ulster-Scot Presbyterian work ethic hung heavily on young Sam Robinson.
He put his savings to good use and within three years he and a Ballymoney friend, Robert Crawford, opened their own small neighbourhood grocery in south Philadelphia.
By the time Sam turned 30 in 1895 they owned three shops, opening another nearly every year until 1904 under the slogan 'The House that Quality Built.'They were on a roll!
Supermarkets had arrived and the partners made sure they were in on the ground floor.
They introduced self-service with grocery carts for the customers and bought adjacent land for customer parking - first horse-and-buggies and then automobiles.
By 1917, through mergers, they owned 1,223 properties, called American Stores, which later merged with the giant Acme Markets, with Samuel Robinson as president.
After endowing the Ballymoney hospital he established The Samuel Robinson Award, an annual bursary that gives cash rewards to students at Presbyterian colleges and seminaries in the United States to assist with their tuition.
To qualify, students have to memorize the Westminster Shorter Catechism, recite it and write a 2,000-word essay about it.
Winners receive between $2,500 and $7,500. Samuel Robinson, the Ballymoney philanthropist, married in 1911, at the age of 46. He died on 6 October 1958.
One obituary said: "Samuel Robinson always remembered and loved his home in County Antrim and retained strong connections throughout his life. Many of the staff at his 44-room mansion, Glencoe House (in Philadelphia) were from Ulster and he retained his accent throughout his life."
When news of his death reached Ballymoney, prayers were said in all the local churches.
A full, evocatively illustrated history of the Robinson Memorial Hospital entitled 'One Man's Gift' was written in 1999 by the late S. Alexander Blair.

Traveling to Poland by plane – a traveler location card
Travelers arriving in Poland by plane must fill in a traveler location card (Karta Lokalizacji Podróżnego) with their expected address in Poland. The location cards can be filled in online (https://aplikacje.gov.pl/app/klp/#/home) before the trip. If you don't the airline crews will distribute paper cards to fill in.
What is quarantine?
Quarantine is the isolation of a healthy person due to exposure to infection, e.g. after contact with a person suffering from coronavirus.
The Polish regulations introduce the concept of ISOLATION (izolacja)). Quarantine (kwarantanna) applies to healthy (not infected) people who have had contact with COVID-19 patients. ISOLATION applies to people who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2. You will find more info about the isolation at the end of our post.
Who is quarantined in Poland?
People who are referred for the SARS-CoV-2 virus test.
People living with an infected (isolated) person.
How many days is the quarantine of a person who lives with someone infected with coronavirus?
When do you need to automatically quarantine yourself?
Cases of "automatic" quarantine, without contact from the authorities:
Quarantine for people who live with someone who has been infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus. This quarantine lasts for the entire period of isolation of the household member who has been diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 virus infection.
Automatically imposed quarantine the day after the covid test is ordered by the primary care physician – it lasts until a negative result is obtained (if you receive a positive test result, you will be directed to isolation).
After crossing the borders (see the first questions in this post: Is quarantine obligatory after crossing the Polish border?).
Automatic quarantine notifications have been implemented. +48 22 10 43 705 is the number from which a message is sent about quarantining people who are in the government database and have a quarantine imposed.
What are the rules during quarantine in Poland?
You cannot leave your place of residence (the ban also includes walking the dog, going to the store or to the doctor).
In the event of symptoms of the disease (malaise, fever, cough, shortness of breath, etc.), be sure to report it to your general practitioner (medical phone consultation).
It is mandatory to install the "Home Quarantine" application (Kwarantanna domowa). Here you will find more information about the application as well as links to install. Since which moment do you have to use the application? The obligation to install the application arises when you receive an SMS encouraging you to download and install the application. This SMS means that your data is already in the system and you can activate the application. Activate the application after arriving at the place of quarantine. Only adults (18+) are legally required to use the application.
You cannot change the quarantine address while the quarantine is in progress.
A person under quarantine does not need to obtain permission to leave the place of quarantine or isolation (or inform the police about it) if the purpose of leaving the apartment is to undergo a test.
What is isolation?
Isolation applies to people who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 (quarantine turns into isolation).
After how many days is the isolation ending?
Can an isolated/quarantined person who lives in a house go outside in their own yard?
Yes, but the person must be careful and keep a distance from their neighbors.

Great read ! Been on a similar journey of my own for about three years now.I'll be 53 in a few days and I am finally starting to enjoy life,be at ease with myself,and in doing so I am becoming what I was trying to be all along.I really enjoy your blog.It encourages me.
I cried as I read. Thank you.
You are awesome and thank you for taking the time to read it. You know exactly how this feels, isn't God good :) I love you duuuuuuude!!!!


From my umbrella-shaded lounge chair, I found myself watching a spirited, curly-haired toddler as she broke away from her father's attempts to clothe her. She dashed naked through the sand toward the shallow ocean waves, gleefully unaware that she was undressed. Reaching the ankle-deep water, she jumped and splashed, unaware of any dangers that the ocean might hold.
As I was taking it all in, I couldn't help but think about Adam and Eve before the Fall. Naked before God, they lived their lives without shame—until they forfeited their righteousness through sin. Disconnected from God, they became fearful. They tried to cover their shame and nakedness with fig leaves, wrongly believing they needed to flee from their loving Creator.
1. Adopted. No longer spiritual orphans, we have a heavenly Father who calls us His own, and He will never leave us (Heb. 13:5). The love He has for Jesus is the love He has for us. We have received His Spirit, which is not a spirit of fear and slavery but of boldness and freedom. Now we can call Him "Abba, Daddy!" (Rom. 8:15-16).
2. Accepted. In His love, God always knew that He would restore us to a state of blameless innocence. Forever without fault, we are accepted in the Beloved (Eph. 1:6) and encouraged to come boldly before His throne to receive all the help we need (Heb. 4:16).
3. Approved. Through the abundance of grace and the gift of God's approval, we are now equipped to rule and reign in life (Rom. 5:17). The God of the universe, our Father, views us with a deep, abiding, never-ending delight. If God is for us, who could possibly be against us (Rom. 8:31)?
4. Authorized. Not only can we come confidently before God's throne, but we can also stand boldly before our Adversary. In Christ, we are not victims but victors. God has authorized us "to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy" (Luke 10:19, New International Version [1984 edition]).
I recently heard someone say that an attitude of faith will cause a believer to swing out over hell on a cornstalk and spit in the devil's eye. That's a great picture of how bold we should be as children of the most High. Proverbs 28:1 says that the righteous—that's us—are bold as a lion!
Looking for wisdom? Be sure to tune in to the Gospel Truth broadcast all this week, where Andrew is sharing insights from his teaching Proverbs: Timeless Wisdom for a Life of Blessing.
It's normal, especially in today's culture, to strive for everything. But how much striving would you do if you knew God was on your side?
I used to get in there and strive for what I wanted. But now I know my battle is the Lord's battle, so I can sit back and rest. It gives me great comfort.
The Greek word for "receive" in this verse can mean "to take" (Strong's Concordance), so it's easy to draw the conclusion that we as Christians should be more aggressive in receiving. But that's not true. That's the trap I see so many Christians get into. What happens is their need to strive for things outweighs their trust in God and their patience for Him to bring something to pass. But Scripture says that through faith and patience, we inherit the promises of God (Heb. 6:12). That's a big deal. God's way of receiving is not through aggressively going after something. It's through aggressive peace and rest.
Laboring to enter the rest of God may sound like a paradox, but it takes effort not to strive. However, when you're striving, it's hard not to live with fear. Look at this passage.
Let's all breathe a sigh of relief. Jesus has got this. God has made you promises, and through Jesus, you will receive them. But it's by aggressively resting in Him.
Learn more in Andrew's teaching The War Is Over. He taught on it all last week and will be continuing to do so next week. If you have a testimony of how this has worked for you, please share in the comments below.

Rolls-Royce service centre ups pace, goes global
Ewen McDonald, Senior VP for Asia Pacific, Rolls-Royce, explains how, since opening its first customer service centre in Singapore three years ago, the company has halved its response times to airlines and developed and deployed a successful global model.
McDonald said at the start there were two key goals: "When we set this up [we wanted] a one-stop centre that would answer all the questions an airline would warrant…from engineering to operations, to the commercial side, the legal side, to the sales side in one organisation.
"The other point…was how to move at the pace of an airline and not the pace of an OEM. There is quite a difference in that pace…they require answers much quicker usually than OEMs can answer. So, we set out [to create] a very agile lean organisation that would run at the pace of the airline and I'm really glad to say that we're getting there."
He said the service centre in Singapore responds 50% faster than the company did previously and added, "The thing that really brings it home to me is when I go out and meet CEOs of airlines and I talk about how their performance is these days, and they say to me,
'Well, you know things have really changed since you opened up the service centre in Singapore' and that's actually much better than a metric – the customer is actually saying that it's made a difference."
The pilot service centre in Singapore proved the model and the value to airlines and the company, so Rolls-Royce replicated the approach in other regions. McDonald said, "Today we have a customer service centre in Beijing, and Abu Dhabi, in Washington [D.C], and also in Derby [UK] supporting Europe.
"So we now have the whole world covered and we're doing exactly the same thing. We're bringing that pace of business – answering the questions locally with the team who has the accountability to deliver those answers to all these different regions. So not only is Asia Pacific benefiting, but the whole world."

The polar bear has long been known as one of Canada's most distinguishing characteristics and now, residents of Churchill, Manitoba say that it is about time that Canada stop sending their orphan cubs to southern zoos.
The small town, with a population of approximately 900 residents is a major tourist atraction, as people flock north to, for the most part check out the dwindling number of polar bears.
Churchill's orphan cubs are often captured and sent to a conservation centre in Winnipeg, where bears are featured as part of an Arctic exhibit.
"It's time we do things differently," says Mike Spence, the mayor of Churchill.
"What we've been going through over the last number of years with orphan cubs directly going to the zoo is not an option. We've heard that loud and clear from community members," Spence said.
"The fact is, naturally, bears belong in the wild," says Spence, who suggested putting tagging chips on cubs so that their exact whereabouts can always be known.
According to Stephen Petersen, current chair of the council, and head of conservation and research for the Assiniboine Park Zoo, cubs need to stay with their mothers for up to 2-and-a-half years, so that their mothers can show them how to hunt.
He goes on to say that solitary cubs left on their own have a zero percent chance of surviving.
As for why there appears to be a higher than normal number of orphan cubs living in Churchill, Petersen says that he has no idea why this is.
This is most certainly true, as the little town has built up quite a sustainable industry based on their popular tourist attraction.
Since 2013, 11 orphaned cubs have been captured in Churchill and sent off to the Assiniboine Park Zoo's Leatherdale International Polar Bear Conservation Centre.
The most recent polar bear transfer was of two cubs, one male and one female. Officials have confirmed that the pair are not siblings.
The pair of cubs have not long arrived at their new home and according to Petersen, they are just learning the lay of their land.
The cubs spent some time in quarantine to make sure they were not carrying any parasites. They were also kept apart for 30 days before being introduced to the public.
According to Squires, one option that is being considered in order to keep orphan bears in Churchill is to create a rehabilitation facility where the cubs could be housed until they are big enough and old enough to take care of themselves.
It is estimated that as many as 60 percent of the world population of polar bears call Canada their home.


I became a Community Governor at Cleves Cross in June 2018. It is my first governor role so I am still very much in listening and learning mode. After attending my first few governing body meetings, I have gained a valuable insight into how the school works and how the superb teaching and support staff are held to account by the different functions of each of the governing body members.
I look forward to helping the school keep up the good work going forward to ensure it is outstanding for many more years to come.
Personally, I have worked as a civil servant for 20 years for a number of government departments and I currently work for the Department for Education in Darlington. I have lived in County Durham all my life and I am passionate about ensuring that our school system is the best it can be to ensure that our children can achieve the best start in life.


Our purpose is to make food that people can enjoy and feel good about themselves.
The Smart Organic story is a tale of dynamic changes, inspiring wins and encouraging losses, overpowering lessons learned.
What started as a small family-owned store in Sofia in 2008 is today driving small and big changes towards cleaner and happier living across country borders and demographies.
An enthusiastic, perceptive pioneer is now the beating heart of a not-so-small ecosystem.
With time our scale keeps changing – our geographical reach is expanded, our portfolio is enriched, our teams are maturing and aiming higher. However, the Smart Organic philosophy and underlying principles we plan and operate by daily remain unchanged.
A kind-hearted business aiming to always act and react with an understanding of consumers' needs, to offer meaningful alternatives and, ultimately, improve lives.
We are dedicated to offering products from organic farming with proven sustainable approaches to pollution-aversion and biodiversity conservation.
We are partners of organizations that help nature preservation (NGO "For The Earth") and humanitarian and educational causes (Art of Living Foundation).
We support Bulgarian Food Bank with food donations and volunteer work.

Q: Ubuntu 14.04, dpkg-reconfigure select option unattended Via a script I am attempting to configure x11-common.  Manually I have been able to run the command:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure x11-common
then selected Anybody which worked.
I would like to programmatically provide the Anybody answer to the command.
I have tried sudo dpkg-reconfigure -f noninteractive x11-common
How is this possible?

A: You can use debconf-set-selections to preseed settings for such configuration scenes. First, on a system on which the package has been installed and configured, run:
debconf-get-selections | grep x11-common

This will tell you the selection identifiers (the name of the package, which you know, and the name and type of the question) you need in case you want to manually set them. In this case, the output would be something like:
x11-common  x11-common/xwrapper/allowed_users         select  Anybody
x11-common  x11-common/xwrapper/actual_allowed_users  string  anybody

Then you can do, on a system on which x11-common is yet to be installed, you can:
ssh first-system 'debconf-get-selections | grep x11-common' |
  sudo debconf-set-selections

Or, manually:
sudo debconf-set-selections <<EOF
x11-common  x11-common/xwrapper/allowed_users         select  Anybody
x11-common  x11-common/xwrapper/actual_allowed_users  string  anybody
EOF

Then, you can install x11-common and expect it use this setting while configuration:
sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install x11-common

Carte Blanche, 2019
23. Juli 2019 von kstumm
Kategorie: exhibitions, paper works
With the installation Get the Sequence, Katharina Stumm (*1987) presents her diploma exhibition at the Akademie der Bildenden Künste Munich, class of Gregor Hildebrandt. The site specific paper work stretches as a woven open space from the ceiling. The different heights of the fragile walls blowing in the wind allow access for the viewer. They are supported by the ceiling anchorage and are sewn at the ends with white or red thread. The material fax paper is marked by creases and cracks in the process of creation, like the melody of a poem.
On the adjacent bench there are five books that represent an archive of over 1000 postcards that the artist sent to friends and acquaintances between 27 April 2015 and 7 July 2019. The works, which were brought onto paper with various media – collages, prints, drawings, acrylic, thread, varnish, oil, ink, etc. – form her main work of recent years, which is scattered all over the world.
Her diploma work Get the Sequence is a structure of 32 carte blanches that are unhinged at the end of the exhibition.

Translation:Mergeți voi înșivă la școală.
Nothing wrong. Tried it, rejected today (2019-01-07). Reported.
Mergeti insiva la scoala is not correct? A few days ago i was told that the use of the pronouns wasn't really necessary, since the verb expresses it anyway, and that many times is not used.
The use of pronouns is or is not necessary depending on the context. The emphatic pronoun (pronumele de întărire) always accompanies the noun or pronoun that it emphasizes.
I'm a little confused here. So "voi" is nominative here? Does that mean that Romanian uses nominative pronouns for the imperative some/all of the time?
No, Romanian uses Vocative case for imperatives. Duo does not bother you with vocative for pronouns, because it is mostly like nominative, and it is always a big source of arguments between linguists. Romanian language evolved at the confluence between European, Oriental (Tartar/Mongol, Turkish), Greek and Slavic languages, and it has a very colored vocative (especially for invectives :)) which is not always accepted, in spite of the fact that it is in a quite common use (for example, you cannot use vocatives in a Scrabble game).
Here the "pronoun" is "voi înșivă", which is not separable. Take it like a locution or idiom. A "mot a mot" translation would be "you by yourself".
Ah thanks, that helps a lot.
