NHRC says it has disposed 111, 295 cases in last year
New Delhi [India], Oct.21 (ANI): National Human Rights Commission Chairman Justice H.L. Dattu on Friday said that the institution has disposed of 111, 295 cases, out of which 59,924 had to be dismissed in limini, as these were not in line with the provisions of the protection of the PHR Act between October, 2015 and September, 2016. Addressing media here, Justice Dattu said the NHRC had also during this period recommended monetary relief to the tune of Rs. 70, 93,000 in 380 cases. He revealed that the public authorities complying with the commission's recommendations paid Rs. 11,59,56,172 as monetary relief in 410 cases to the victims or their kin. These included cases of the previous year as well as the some cases wherein recommendations were made during 2015-2016. Justice Dattu said that the NHRC has always considered media as its equal partner in the promotion and protection of human rights. "The media has immensely helped in building awareness about human rights and the role of the NHRC. Media reports have been the basis of several suo motu cognizance that the commission took about the violations of human rights in the far flung areas of the country, which, otherwise, may not have come to the notice of the Commission. Therefore, it is our obvious pleasure to have media persons on board while celebrating the Foundation Day of the NHRC," he said. "Since the 12th October, 1993, the day of its foundation, the NHRC has come a long way by addressing several issues of human rights violations as well as giving inputs on key legislations impacting human rights. Whenever an issue of human rights violation comes to the notice of the NHRC, it has to take its cognizance without bothering for the permutation and combinations of electoral politics or caste and creed equations," said Justice Dattu. He added that over more than a lakh complaints being received in the commission indicated not only the increasing faith of the people in its functioning but also their awareness about the importance of promotion and protection of human rights. He said that since October, 2015 to September, 2016, the NHRC has registered 105,664 cases on the basis of complaints, intimation from Police and Prison authorities etc and on suo motu basis. The number of cases registered during the period on suo motu basis is 133. During the corresponding period in 2014-15 and 2013-14, it registered 117, 477 and 106,684 cases respectively. The onus is on governments in states and centre to ensure that the faith of the people in the NHRC is not shaken even by exception, when some of them choose to ignore its recommendations, not on the merits but merely on the ground that they are not bound under the Protection of Human Rights Act to accept them. This faith has become a reason for enhanced expectations, he said. (ANI)

Violent Woodland Hills incidents shed light on the role of law enforcement in schools
"Do we really want to turn all of our kids into criminals? That's not what schools are for."
By Rebecca Addison
In a video from March 3, 2015, then-15-year-old Ahmad Williams can be seen sitting in the main office of Woodland Hills High School, a blue binder in his lap. He had been sent there by a teacher after being disruptive in class.
Seconds later, Churchill Police Officer Steve Shaulis lifts him from the chair, wraps an arm around his neck and pushes him down a hallway before forcing him to the ground. With his head held down by Woodland Hills High School Principal Kevin Murray, Williams is tased at least two times by Shaulis and handcuffed.
Following this incident, Shaulis continued to work in the school, but this wasn't the last time he would get physical with a student. Last month, he allegedly knocked out one of 14-year-old Que'chawn Wade's front teeth.
Wade had been accused of stealing a cell phone and was sent to the main office, where he can be seen in video footage talking to Shaulis before leaving the room. After an exchange of words between Wade and Shaulis in the hallway, the officer grabs Wade and pushes him back into the room and then into an office off-screen where Shaulis allegedly hit Wade in the face.
Since the second incident, Shaulis has been removed from the school, but the recently released footage of the two incidents has sparked national outrage. Parents and activists are calling for further action in Woodland Hills, demanding justice for students at the high school. They're also calling for the firing of Shaulis and Principal Murray.
"I cannot find one reason for officer Shaulis to become physical in any of the incidents we've seen," said Brandi Fisher, president of the Alliance for Police Accountability at a press conference where video footage of both incidents was released. "What message is this sending to kids — when they're in an environment where they're not only being verbally abused, but physically abused — that they will not receive any help. We are calling on our district attorney to evaluate these cases. The system is protecting predators and criminalizing children. The entire community should be standing up behind these children in that school district [who] are being abused and violently attacked."
This isn't the first time Woodland Hills has gained attention for its disciplinary procedures. Last year, the district was ranked in the top 10 of schools nationwide with the highest rates of out-of-school suspensions at the elementary level. And juvenile-justice experts say these incidents highlight the issues surrounding school resource officers (SROs) — police officers like Shaulis who have been contracted by districts to work in schools — and how they contribute to the school-to-prison pipeline that funnels African-American students into the justice system.
"I'm sorry these young people and their families are going through this situation, but I'm glad these videos are coming to light," says Harold Jordan, a senior policy advocate at the Philadelphia office of the American Civil Liberties Union. "I've been very critical of districts for bringing police into matters where they should not be. Ordinary school discipline should not be a police matter. I'm not saying all school police officers or school resource officers behave in that way, but what we're seeing in those videos is horrifying."
The presence of police officers in Pennsylvania schools is growing. Of the 500 school districts in Pennsylvania, approximately 150 have law-enforcement officers in their schools. And last year the Pennsylvania Department of Education awarded an additional $6.5 million in grants to provide training and compensation for SROs and school police officers.
"Woodland Hills is like a lot of other schools in the country in that schools with black children and/or children who are poor are more likely to have officers placed in their schools full time," Jordan says. "That's what studies show."
And because SROs tend to be placed in schools with high populations of low-income and black students, Jordan says people often aren't quick to reprimand officers who get physical with students.
"I think sometimes members of the general public are kind of naïve when they hear about these things, and they think, 'Oh, it must be kids fighting, and the cops are in there breaking things up,'" Jordan says. "There's this notion that these bad kids need to be policed. And you also have a situation where the accountability mechanisms are thin if any. It's a volatile combination."
But Jordan says it's clear from the video footage that officer Shaulis acted inappropriately, and he says the call from many in the local community to have the officer fired is justified.
"Whatever was said between the kid and the officer, it is totally inappropriate and totally in the realm of excessive force for the officer to grab the kid and throw him on the ground and drag him down the hall. And for the principal to appear to condone that behavior is in many ways reprehensible," Jordan says. "This was not a kid who pulled a gun or a knife on an officer, and then the officer tackled him to the ground."
And Jordan says parents in the community also have grounds to have Principal Murray fired. He says that, according to the U.S. Department of Education, school districts can be held legally liable for the discriminatory behavior of school security, and that school districts are also responsible for the behavior of all adults in their building. And Jordan says the behavior reflects a greater problem at the school district.
"There is a school-governance problem," Jordan says. "Woodland Hills as a school district has extraordinarily high rates of suspension, among the highest in the state. There have been programs that have been brought in and things of that sort. But this is a situation where educators have to be in control. They have a responsibility."

[2021 Year in Review] Stuck like glue
Originally I wanted to spend my year in review post looking back on the heroes we've had this year (#becauseheroes). But then, while covering Dal-li and Gamjatang, I got an idea for a different way to spin my year in dramas: through particular scenes that stuck to my heart like glue.
There were only a few of them. But these small moments and scenes are ones that I won't forget as quickly as I do the plot points from dramas I've enjoyed, but that didn't kick me in the heart. It's also been an interesting way to look back on my year in dramas, as I gathered the scenes that stood out to me, and then sat back and asked myself why they actually did resonate so much.
Looking back on my favorite scenes, here's what I found: one for squees, one for great dialogue, and two for this wistful, yearning that, whenever captured by a story, becomes unforgettable for me. (I guess I like yearning.) Even though the scenes and dramas themselves are quite different, I'd argue that each of them actually contains the same magical potion: when characters are at a pivotal moment and are either letting go of something, or reaching out for someone. Either way, there's a depth to the storytelling in these scenes (okay, maybe minus Imitation) that makes me hold my breath for fear of missing something beautiful.
4 Favorite Scenes From My Year in Dramas
Drama: Yumi's Cells
Scene: Broken-hearted Yumi at the bus stop with Bobby
Find it at: Ten minutes into Episode 14
Emotional reaction: Clutching at heart and eyes filling with tears but not sure why
The why: It's the final episode of the drama, and Yumi is reeling from her sad breakup, and trying to get used to the emptiness she feels in being suddenly alone. The sun is setting and the sky is orange as she waits at the bus stop, musing about a run in the park later to help her fall asleep. Her coworker Bobby walks over, and they have this very simple exchange about being alone, and how to you need to be alone to recognize that in other people. It sounds sad, and indeed it's quite bittersweet, but it's also perfect. The lighting is magnificent, the soundtrack at this point is beautiful enough to splinter my heart, and the whole scene is just bursting with emotion without actually being "about" much at all. It just somehow manages to capture this haunting wistfulness, sadness, hope, and promise.
Drama: Dal-li and Gamjatang
Scene: Moo-hak comforts Dal-li as her world shatters
Find it at: End of Episode 11
Emotional reaction: *Gah* How did the writer do this!
The why: At this point in the drama our heroine has been through hell and high water and the last attack is the reveal that she's adopted. She's struggling as everyone automatically sees her as illegitimate and questions her love for her father; she avoids Moo-hak for fear of his reaction. When he finally goes hunting around the gallery to find her, they have the greatest exchange ever! The acting is spot on here, but it's really the writing, I think, that grabbed me the most. The two have such an organic and emotional conversation, first with Dal-li admitting the truth to Moo-hak, and then her surprise over Moo-hak's non-reaction. Rather than splinter them apart and change how they feel about each other, he uses this information to see deeply into her heart and offer the best comfort ever. In the finest combination of encouragement and humor (how do people even do this in real life anyway!?), he wipes Dal-li's worries away, makes her smile with his silly joke — and then that smile actually makes her cry. She reaches out for him, smiling and crying at the same time. Ack! This exchange feels so real, and for me, this scene really is the pinnacle of these characters and their relationship.
Drama: The King's Affection
Scene: Dam-yi's dream sequence
Find it at: About 40 minutes into Episode 20
Emotional reaction: Hand over mouth to hold back the sobs
The why: At this point we've been through 20 episodes with Dam-yi and seen all her struggles. Now, in what seems like her final act of sacrificial greatness, she takes poisoned tea with her grandfather/nemesis so that they can die together and end the feud that's left the palace drenched in blood. The poison scene is positively brutal, and they both throw up blood and collapse. When next we see Dam-yi, she's a royal princess in her wedding garb, preparing to marry her true love, Ji-woon. She's cute and feminine and everything she was never able to be in real life (her brother the prince is still alive, too and they continue to naughtily cosplay each other). All Dam-yi's beloved people are around her as Ji-woon approaches her by the secret cottage where they first met. The whole scene has this tinge of wistfulness and heartache — it literally feels as if we've stepped into Dam-yi's heart and have seen the life she secretly dreamt of for herself. It's as precious as it is completely heart-breaking. There's something in her eyes, too — she knows the scene is too sweet to be real, too perfect to be true. And then it fades out from around her, confirming her fears that it wasn't real. This scene destroyed me more than the actual ending of the drama, I think because of that feeling it was able to capture: the life she wishes she had been able to live. It's the first time we actually see Dam-yi's heart so openly expressed, and the play between her dreams, her reality, and the life that could have been was absolutely heart-wrenching (in the best sense).
Drama: Imitation
Scene: The reluctant but then awesome dance between Kwon Ryuk and Maha
Find it at: Opening of Episode 3
Emotional reaction: The ear-piercing squee that only dramas can provide
The why: No shame — this was one of my favorite dramas of the year, but of all the cute little squees and romance moments, nothing topped the dance that Maha and Ryuk shared on the variety TV show they guested on. Maha has to dance her rip-off of La Rima's famous number, and she shocks the guests (and everyone off-camera) by walking up to Ryuk and putting out her hand for him to join her. The moment hangs in the air. He's 100% scoff, yet gets up anyway and walks to the stage with her. She demos the dance moves, and then, BOOM. Just as the music kicks in, he gives her the tidiest nod, and they start the dance completely in sync. The scene is barely three minutes long, but it's sooooo satisfying and fun. I have watched this scene a thousand times for that tiny nod of understanding, for the way Ryuk's perpetual scowl lightens into a secret smile while he's dancing with his girl, for the way they both fall into sync with each other so easily, and for that moment when the ridiculous ear worm of a song kicks in. It's strangely satisfying to watch them dance this goofy dance together (which is also how I feel about the drama a whole).
Tiny moments, huge tears, and even bigger feels. At first I thought I was disappointed with this year's dramas (or the ones I chose to watch, anyway) — they didn't seemed to check all my boxes and I dropped a lot, losing interest. But in retrospect, and looking at these moments that I've held on to, it was a pretty good year after all.

What a wonderful way to review the year, @missvictrix
And yes, yes, yes, yearning is my answer to the question too. It took me a while to work out why I keep coming back for more k-drama and it's one thing: the yearning. My goodness, so well done.
I haven't watched your first two (the first not right through and the second, not at all), but I will make certain I do, especially Dali.
That scene in the King's Affection was everything you say it is, beautiful and heart-breaking all at the same time. As I watched it, I thought, "this is it, she's only ever going to get there in the afterlife," (and I was thinking that even when I was sure she'd taken an antidote), but then we got the scene on the beach too.
I loved Imitation and the break-out dance was brilliant - so much fun and clearly demonstrating that these two were in sync with each other in more ways than only in dance. Imitation also said something important about that industry and paid tribute to the many lives sacrificed to its brutal imperatives.
One of my standout scenes for all time is the one in Lost when they walk down the street looking at each other - exponential yearning.
You've got me thinking now of other scenes imprinted on my brain that I'm going to have to recapture. How do they do it? Fabulous directing and great acting to start with, but also tapping into emotions and giving them back to us in ways we recognise. Cathartic.
redwingkdrama
I can remember several scenes/moments from Lost that amazed me. One of those Kdramas that will stay with me for a while.
Oh, I have to finish Lost! It looked splendid
2 Jezz
Very nice 2021 theme, @missvictrix! I loved all of the scenes!
3 jerrykuvira
I didn't get to watch any of the aforementioned, yet your sincerity is well conveyed. Three scenes stand out for me.
Hospital playlist ep 8 when Seok-Hyung skipped music time to be with Chu-Chu. That was one giant stride for our character.
2. MMH episode 8. The scene where Yoo Ja Sung said it was his first time eating a meal cooked at home. There was longing in his character that stuck with me.
3. RoY actually scores 2 scenes. i) When An HyunSeung defended his wife before his mum and his wife basked in his acknowledgment in that very moment, then they went ahead to talk about it the very next scene. I appreciate that scene anytime. ii) Episode 12. When Hyunseung told JHJ that he'd forgiven her and asked her not to leave him. AHS was at his weakest, and that plea from his character, like he'd loose his essence, it was loving and heart wenching.
drabea
jerrykuvira, "MMH... RoY". <- Why do people think it is OK to use abbreviations in their comments, especially the first time they refer to a drama or actor?
With the availability and profusion of Korean and Asian entertainment available (present and past), we depend on things like Dramabeans' articles and comments to decide on what to watch along with enjoying insights and other information about them.
Many shows have two or three different title translations used on various sites,
such as THE LONELY SHINING GOBLIN (TLSG) on Dramabeans was referred to as simply GOBLIN and GUARDIAN: THE LONELY AND GREAT GOD (GTLAGG) on 2 other popular sites.
My all time favorite, YOU WHO CAME FROM THE STARS is another example of a show that has several titles used,
as does
I REMEMBER YOU;
MOONLIGHT DRAWN BY CLOUDS; etc.
Similarly, some actors have more than one English transliteration of their names, such as Gong Hyo-jin also seen as Kong Hyo-Jin.
So how is using only abbreviations in a posting good communication of information, thoughts and opinions?

Thank you, @missvictrix this is the PERFECT way to remember the year! I agree completely with the nebulous feels of Yumi's Cells and the brilliant writing and acting in that scene in Dali and the Gamjatang.
I would also add the last scene in Navillera; it captured the regret that colors life. And then I would add the bank rescue scene opening the cdrama You Are My Hero....just brilliant in quietly showing how even in small moments we can profoundly affect each other❤
5 SailorJumun
A pretty good year, indeed! And I had so much fun weecaping King's Affection with you~~ 😊
@sailorjumun Same here, girl! Always good to share the tears (although I think they just doubled in this case)
6 DancingEmma
I know the choice/choices were supposed to be from 2021 Dramas but I discovered this world of story telling only this year and zigzagged back and forth across the years. Some Beanies kindly recommended Dramas to me and one of these was "Just Between Lovers"/Rain or Shine.
I loved it so much and one extended scene from Ep 10 has stayed with me for weeks: Halmoni is in the hospital being visited and fussed over by her "grandchildren". Kangdoo is grieving her impending death but is trying to remain as stoic as he can. His voice over says the following:
"Halmoni said life is a repetition of regrets and failures. I sarcastically asked what is the point of living. Granny said it's to regret and fail more wonderfully".
Ah, one of my favorite shows! So glad you also enjoyed it
For the King's Affection, it's the life Dam-Y should have had if men weren't stupid and decided that the futur King couldn't have a twin sister. It was a very stupid reason that caused a lot of deaths.
The scene showed she could have been very happy : she has a good relationship with her brother, she still loves the same man, the Eunuch and the Court Lady aren't stressed by her secret but just as happy than her, Ji-Woon didn't run away from the Palace because of his father.
Her both grandfathers took it away from her...
Yes! It really had such a sad, wistfulness to it! The life that could have been
We couldn't read you final thoughts about the show. :'(

Thanks for this post! I've only watched TKA, but the other three dramas are under my radar and I would certainly watch them.
I honestly loved that dream sequence. TKA has proven just how much one's circumstances can affect their personality, and this is no less true for Hwi. The dream showed how much Hwi's real self had been sat on. Dream Damyi was like a completely different person, down to her skipping steps, wide smile and the glow in her eyes. (How many times have we actually seen Hwi smile?) If she had grown up as a princess, she would've been so much like Hakyung - pampered, loved, carefree, happy.
When she called the real Hwi orabeoni, I teared up a little. If really Hakyung married the real Hwi, Dami and her would've been best friends. I guess that's why Hwi felt sympathy for the queen - they were alike, not just because they had been roped into terrible circumstances by fate, but because their personalities matched as well. Hwi knew better than anyone just how much staying in unhappy circumstances could change Hakyung. And we did see Hakyung lose a bit of her glow, but hopefully not too much.
At the ending, we could see a little bit of dream adult Damyi in Hwi. But it obviously wasn't the same, and it could never be. At least, now she's freer and happier than she's ever been while stuck in that stupid palace.

More often than not, I find the "less sentimental" scenes more touching than the intentionally very sentimental scenes. Sometimes, it really is the little things that matters the most.
In the final ep of Yumi there is the perfect example of this: Who is the lead character of your life if not yourself? The cell telling Yumi herself this, this short but huge dialogue, led me into shedding tears. We ourselves make out who we are. We should be #1 on our priority list!
I'd love to hear if anyone else also has these "small but huge" scenes, which are special to you!
That was another lovely part of the show that really stays with you, totally agree!

@missvictrix, I had to stop reading your piece when I noticed you were mentioning the kings affection and I hadn't seen the last two episodes. And now that I have, for me the sticking scene was the one where Dami is kneeling before the new king and the ministers are entreating the king to save her life. This is the only time when all of them chanting in unison actually affected me—Of all the sageuks I've seen prior, I never heard this sincerely. And Park Eun Bin's face, of course, telling the story without any words like she does so well.
I think your last sentence resonates with me not just in dramas but in this year as well. The little moments between the terrible is what we need to focus on.
Oh, by the way, I totally agree with your Daii and Gamjatang moment though. It was amazing. Their conversation was so believable and I FELT that hug.
milktea
Oh gosh yes, this was the scene that surprisingly had me tearing up (this and the ending beach scene) - to see everyone sincerely wanting to save her life was just a testament to how great she actually treated her people, even if she was stuck in this life that she didn't choose... so wonderful, this drama.

I loved Yumi's Cells and The King's Affection. Yes, those scenes will really touch your heart. I haven't seen Dali and Gamjatang and Imitation but I might binge watch later. I still have to catch up with Secret Royal Inspector and The Red Sleeve.
Thank you for giving us another way to remember dramas by, @missvictrix!
"Stuck in like Glue." What a great way to remember this year in dramas. For me the scene I have reflected on since watching it was from You Are My Spring, the last episode. When Ian Chase goes home after visiting a psychiatrist. At that visit, he says his message to his twin would be "I was in the shadow. Not you. And it was also me who clung onto you." He is all alone afterwards. He is still haunted by the decisions he has made. Will he ever face punishment? Will he ever seek forgiveness? Will he ever not be alone? I believe that these are the questions that will haunt him for a long time, and they will move me as I reflect back on this drama.

Engineering stars win Academy Silver Medals
Dr Jade Alglave for her development of novel techniques to model the behaviour of multiprocessors, helping to overcome the difficulty of finding bugs in concurrent programmes
Dr Iain Scott awarded for his contribution to Leonardo's Vixen-E family of Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) airborne radars
Professor Chris Sutcliffe for the development of bone-integrating 3D printed metal implants
Dr Jade Alglave, UCL and ARM Ltd
Dr Jade Alglave
A computer program pioneer whose work could make bugs in computer chips a thing of the past is set to receive the Royal Academy of Engineering's prestigious Silver Medal at the Academy Awards Dinner in London on Wednesday 27 June. Computer scientist Dr Jade Alglave, of UCL and ARM Ltd, has led the development of novel techniques to model the behaviour of multiprocessors, helping to overcome the difficulty of finding bugs in concurrent programmes where running those programmes can lead to many different, and unexpected, outcomes.
Concurrent programming, where separate components of a program are run at the same time, is an important function in high-performance computing. Assessing a program which runs concurrently means checking that its outcome is the same as if all its components were run in sequence. Often, these components need to communicate with each other and this is where subtle bugs may occur.
Practically, Dr Alglave's work provides engineers with tools to innovate rapidly during the development of a concurrent system, but can also diagnose problems in existing systems. Her work has guided the development of formal models for computer hardware and software, as well as uncovered latent bugs in existing hardware.
Dr Alglave's techniques have been used to model chips for IBM, Nvidia, AMD and ARM, among others. She has also contributed to developing a realistic model of the concurrency carried out by the Linux operating system, a development that has received a high level of support from the developer community and is now included in mainline Linux.
Dr Alglave said: "I am honoured to receive this medal, and keen to see how this work develops now that I have joined Arm. I would very much like to emphasise that all these contributions have been made with Dr Luc Maranget from INRIA, France, who took me under his wing when I was a student. Our scientific tandem is fun and rewarding to this day.
I would also like to thank people who helped us make this work better over the years, such as Derek Williams and Paul McKenney at IBM, Olivier Giroux at Nvidia, Paul Blinzer and Tony Tye at AMD, and Will Deacon and Richard Grisenthwaite at ARM."
Professor Peter O'Hearn FRS FREng, Professor of Computer Science at UCL and Research Scientist at Facebook, who nominated Dr Alglave for the award, said: "Modelling concurrency has seen significant work over the last 40 years but the challenges are so difficult that absolutely basic, fundamental problems remain. The importance of overcoming these challenges is only increasing as technological developments in chip design grow.
Dr Alglave's work is conceptually innovative and breathes new life into modelling the behaviour of computer hardware and software. Her research has had an unprecedented practical impact on chip design at many major companies and she has successfully developed complex theoretical solutions to some of the biggest challenges for the computing industry. This pairing of beautiful conceptual innovation with striking impact is exceedingly rare."
Dr Iain Scott, Leonardo
Dr Iain Scott
Dr Iain Scott, an engineer who has delivered some of the UK's most successful radar systems, will receive a Royal Academy of Engineering Silver Medal at the Academy Awards Dinner on Wednesday 27 June in recognition of his personal contribution to the development of radar technology, one of the most crucial technologies of the modern world.
Dr Scott, Capability Manager at Leonardo in the UK, has been a key figure in the creation of Leonardo's Vixen-E family of Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) airborne radars, which are now a major UK export worth hundreds of millions of pounds. AESA radar systems use multiple transmitters to send out and measure the reflection of radio waves to determine the distance and speed of targets. Individual control of these transmitters enables simultaneous functions ranging from surveillance and fire control to advanced data link communications.
While making huge progress in the performance, reliability and capabilities of radar, AESA radars have been impeded by their relatively narrow field of view – a challenge Dr Scott and his team at Leonardo in Edinburgh overcame with the development of the Raven ES-05 radar for Saab's Gripen E fighter aircraft. The Raven ES-05 uses a repositionable antenna to provide a complete forward hemispherical scanning ability, a technological development that provides the Gripen E aircraft with far greater situational awareness and tactical advantage.
As the key sensor on the Gripen E, the breakthrough capabilities of the Raven ES-05 have been vital to the aircraft overcoming global competition for a number of international contracts, including multi-billion pound orders with the Swedish and Brazilian air forces. The Raven ES-05 is one of the largest and most strategically important radar projects run by Leonardo, with a development and production budget of several hundred million pounds and employing a highly skilled engineering team in Edinburgh and a wide network of national suppliers.
Dr Iain Scott said: "I am delighted to receive this award, and that the Royal Academy of Engineering has recognised the contribution that Leonardo and the Raven ES-05 radar programme has made to the UK economy. At the start we needed to quickly establish the trust of Saab, an extremely knowledgeable and capable customer. The depth of expertise in the whole Leonardo team allowed me to gain Saab's confidence, a relationship that continues to this day. We are now seeing the technology and solutions that have been developed on Raven ES-05 being adopted in other radar systems, a testament to the ingenuity and capability of UK engineering."
Dr Scott's technical expertise has been fundamental in establishing Leonardo in the UK as one of the biggest and most successful airborne radar manufacturers in the world. In 2001 Leonardo began developing AESA radar technology for global markets, a major technical departure for the company that needed the support of engineers capable of grasping the complexities of the new technology. Dr Scott joined Leonardo after completing his PhD in radar signal processing at the University of Edinburgh, rapidly progressing within the company and leading on many of the key advances in Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) techniques. Dr Scott led the algorithm development, implementation and verification of the company's SAR techniques to such a high level that SAR is now a standard offering in all Leonardo radar products.
Recognising Dr Scott's exceptional expertise and team leadership skills he was appointed Chief Systems Engineer for the company's Vixen family of combat aircraft radar systems. The first system developed under his leadership was selected for use by the US Customs and Border Protection agency – a huge coup for a UK-based radar company as the USA is itself one of the world-leading developers of AESA technology.
Professor Tony Kinghorn FREng, Chief Technical Officer for RF Systems at Leonardo, who nominated Dr Scott for the medal, said: "Dr Scott is an outstanding engineer with a deep knowledge of all aspects of radar design and it would have been impossible to produce such a successful radar system without his clear vision and direction. The commercial success of the Raven ES-05 truly demonstrates the breadth and scope of Dr Scott's engineering capabilities- his deep understanding of the technology coupled with his commercial awareness and his ability to build relationships of trust with Saab were all vital to the success of the programme."
Professor Chris Sutcliffe, Univerity of Liverpool and Renishaw
Professor Chris Sutcliffe
An engineer responsible for the development of 3D printed metal implants that help relieve the suffering of thousands of patients each year will be recognised later this month when he receives the Royal Academy of Engineering's prestigious Silver Medal on Wednesday 27 June at the Academy's Awards Dinner in London.
Thanks to the pioneering work of Professor Chris Sutcliffe, of the University of Liverpool and Renishaw, 3D printed metal implants are used to treat patients who have experienced trauma or debilitating joint disease of the hip, knee and spine. This new-class of bone-integrating implant uses 3D printing to mimic spongy bone tissue, enabling rapid integration between the implant and the bone and providing far better long-term performance and stability than traditional designs. The 3D printed metal implants are now routinely used in both human and animal surgery.
Professor Sutcliffe has been instrumental at every stage of creating the implants, establishing the computer aided design (CAD) software used to develop the structure, developing the equipment necessary to produce materials that are porous and strong enough to be used in production, and devising a way to measure the biological performance of the implants.
His fundamental research has been successfully commercialised through a joint licensing agreement with Stryker Orthopaedics. This partnership has led to the launch of five families of implants for Stryker's Joint Replacement and Spine franchises, helping to improve the lives of thousands of patients and resulting in an increased market share for the company. In 2016 Stryker established a dedicated factory in Cork, Republic of Ireland, to produce one of the largest quantities of implants made by a single facility globally.
Professor Sutcliffe is also the founder and director of Fusion Implants, a University of Liverpool spin-out that produces veterinary implants using the bone-integrating technology in the treatment of musculoskeletal disease and injury in animals.
Professor Sutcliffe said: "It is very exciting to see fundamental ideas being translated into products that have a real and tangible impact on patients. We have worked hard to make this a success and this award recognises the efforts of the many engineers and scientists who have turned this into reality. I am very proud to receive this on their behalf and on behalf of the wider additive manufacturing family."
With a research career spanning over 20 years, Professor Sutcliffe has been involved in several revolutionary developments in additive manufacturing, including the development of the first Direct Metal 3D printing system in the UK. The technique, which uses an intense laser beam to melt thin layers of metal powder one after the other, is used across industry to produce high-performance and extremely complex metal parts.
Professor Sutcliffe's commitment to the deployment and commercialisation of research has led to many industrial partnerships, including a collaboration with Renishaw, where he was appointed Research and Development Director for the company's Additive Manufacturing Products Division in 2008. He has also been responsible for the funded projects portfolio, working with universities and research organisations across Europe.
Silver Medals. The Royal Academy of Engineering Silver Medal was established in 1994 to recognise an outstanding and demonstrated personal contribution to British engineering, which has resulted in successful market exploitation, by an engineer with less than 22 years in full time employment or equivalent on 1 January in the year of award and who will normally be Chartered. Up to four medals may be awarded in any one year.

Help, I've got Kids! Don't fret about your children becoming busy in the service. That's just the way kids are. In fact, Jesus was very clear in inviting children into His presence. However, please be respectful to those around you.
You might want to take advantage of the Parents Room at the back of the church. This is a glassed off section of the church where you can still hear and see everything, but with a little bit of sound proofing, a comfortable carpet, and a few toys for the little ones to play with.
Alternatively, come and sit near the front so your little ones can see and hear what's going on.
Join in the worship, prayer and response. Children learn behaviour by copying you. If you sing, they will sing. If you pray, they will pray.
Remember that the way we welcome children in church directly affects the way they respond to the Church, to God and to one another. Let them know that they are at home in this place of worship.

PowerMultisport: Holiday is over - back to the plan.
Holiday is over - back to the plan.
I can not wait for the gym to open back up after this long holiday break. Even though it is tough and I generally dread it - I have missed the swimming. I am excited about getting back into the pool. My training plan is only calling for swimming on Tuesday and Friday of the coming week but I think that I will have to supplement that with a few extra days. It might take a little time anyway to just work back up to the prior volume. I am sure that my upper body has atrophied some during the past couple of weeks.
The training plan calls for a 2 1/2 hour easy hill run for today. I will run in Heart Rate zones 1-2 - just long and steady. There are not many hills here in Southern Mississippi so it will just be along the rails-to-trails. I might be able to venture off the trace for a little hill work but it has been raining. The horse and mountain bike trails will be muddy - (read slippery, standing water, the fall down and get hurt slick kind of slick). There is a chance of more thunderstorms later in the day. This will be wet, hard day. I am actually looking forward to it!


Statue Labour – Till within a very few years, the road which leads across the Township from Galt to the Brock Road was an apology for the term. Hills, ruts and swamps made it all but impassable for months in the year. Now, however, we are glad to notice that, under the indefatigable Mr. Duncan McDonald, who has had the superintendence of the Crieff section for some years past, he has brought it to a state of perfection that may well vie with any macadam highway in the province.
Road improvements: For years past, the side-road leading from the 1st Concession to the Gore of Puslinch, near Killean, has been a source of annoyance to the travelling public; its impassable nature at certain seasons of the year, making it even dangerous to travel on. Thanks however, to our worthy and ever vigilant Reeve, Mr. William Leslie, who amongst other needed improvments on the roads of the Township, has had this piece put into thorough repair, by having it gravelled and stones and stumps taken from the wagon track and the method adopted by Mr. Leslie (by public competition) in letting out the jobs, the work has been most satisfactorily done for a little over $50., whereas under the former systems of the municipality an expenditure of $100. would not have sufficed. Mr. Leslie is a man worthy of all praise in this matter and the general wish and hope is that he may long be spared to officiate at the head of our municipal affairs.
Roads: Farmers have commenced statute labour again. We are pleased to notice the Township Council is going to expend some more on "Scott's" sideroad. This road has been in a bad condition for some time. The condition of the side road between lots 10 and 11, 2nd cocnession, is open to criticism. This road was not opened till a few years ago, when our Council expended $200. in a very praiseworthy manner from one end to the other. The manner in which the money was expended met with the approval of everybody, as the roadway was over half a mile long, and for the most part small trees and underbrush, with no less than five ponds, two of them nearly 100 yards in extent, each which had to be crossed. No statute labour being put on the road, it has not improved any and, being our most direct route to Guelph, we would like to see it put in a passable condition.


After a tumultuous two years, Jeff Sessions is out as AG.
The darkest cloud for Republicans is in the suburbs. That must change.
It was a long time coming and shouldn't surprise anyone — Attorney General Jeff Sessions tendered his resignation at President Donald Trump's request on Wednesday. Sessions and Trump got off on the wrong foot right from the start after Sessions capitulated to Democrat demands that he recuse himself from the investigation into Russian election interference. The two never recovered, as Sessions's decision paved the way for the creation of Robert Mueller's special investigation, which has proven to be little more than a witch hunt and a constant headache for Trump.
There is no question that Trump's timing for firing Sessions was strategically calculated. With Republicans now sitting on an even stronger Senate majority2, the president is freer to nominate someone without Democrat obstruction. Second, so long as Sessions was AG, Trump had little prospect of seeing the Mueller investigation either limited in its scope or brought to an end. Trump certainly doesn't want it dogging him for another two years.
Irrespective of the outcome of the Mueller investigation, House Democrats have made it clear3 that they will go after impeaching Trump. The Federalist's Mollie Hemingway reports4 that Nadler is planning to go "all-in" on seeking the impeachment of both Trump and Justice Brett Kavanaugh. Trump is certainly aware that no matter what he does, Democrats are gunning for him, and he has clearly decided not to sit back and let it happen.
Indeed, Trump's choice of Matthew Whitaker as the temporary attorney general demonstrates his intention to fight back against the Democrats. Whitaker has previously criticized Mueller, saying, "It does not take a lawyer or even a former federal prosecutor like myself to conclude that investigating Donald Trump's finances or his family's finances fall completely outside the realm of his 2016 campaign and allegations that the campaign coordinated with the Russian government or anyone else. That goes beyond the scope of the appointment of the special counsel." Of course, Democrats are calling for Whitaker to recuse himself from having any authority over the Mueller investigation. But the truth is, it doesn't matter who Trump picks for AG — Democrats will demand recusal.
For the time being, the president has an AG who will presumably act to limit the scope of the Mueller investigation to Russian election interference, hopefully bringing this year-and-a-half-long witch hunt about "collusion" to an end.
While the GOP did as well as could be expected in governors' races6 (the loss of Scott Walker is a bitter blow) and secured a historic win in the Senate2 (netting a gain of three seats), the loss of the House3 is a significant setback for the party and perhaps the first sign of looming defeat in future years. Why? The areas where many Republicans lost were the suburbs, and that may portend trouble ahead.
There are a number of reasons the GOP lost in the suburbs. Pete Sessions blamed his loss in a Texas district he represented for 16 years on the late John McCain's decisive vote against8 the limited ObamaCare repeal in 2017. Other Republicans may have lost in heavily red states for turning their back on President Donald Trump, or because they embraced him too tightly. In some cases, it was just lackluster candidates.
The fact is, the suburbs have become the crucial battleground, and Republicans fell short in holding what had been a key to their coalition. Some of it was just the historical pattern of midterm elections. Part of it is due to understandable discomfort with Trump's rhetoric and brash style. A fair bit of it was due to the constant lies that Republicans are racist, usually when they don't do what Democrats want on immigration or other issues. That so many Americans believe that is a testament to the power of the Leftmedia and Silicon Valley9.
We can't do much about Trump's rhetoric. At 72 years old, he is set in his ways. While he speaks the truth about media bias and issues like border security and illegal immigration, he makes people who would otherwise be persuaded cringe with how he talks about them. He is a very good campaign asset — as four GOP senators who defeated Democrats in these midterms can attest to. Unfortunately, he's also a liability in too many areas.
In any case, good strategy and tactics are hard to find10 on the GOP side, and both are necessary due to Democrats' storytelling advantage11. But there are some things the GOP can do policy-wise and on the candidate recruitment side to make things better.
Health care is a big issue. For eight years, the GOP has opposed ObamaCare but had no coherent plan to replace it, and it finally bit them in the rear. Republicans need to start moving the ball forward in a free-market direction. Major changes are off the table until 2021 at the earliest, but they can nibble at the edges while they develop an election strategy.
Another move is to pursue a major military buildup. With Democrats promising defense cuts in the face of a more dangerous Russia and China, this should be a given. The Army12, Navy13, Air Force14, Marine Corps15, and Coast Guard16 all need major boosts in their force structure.
Third, Republicans need to push for an end to lawless actions on all fronts. Not just immigration, but bureaucratic abuse, the violent acts of antifa, and even the actions taken in corporate boardrooms against the Second Amendment need to be exposed in oversight hearings. Executive action is also an option (Trump still has the pen and the phone).
Finally, the GOP needs better candidate recruitment. As Republicans have a habit of doing, there were some duds nominated. In Virginia, Corey Stewart dragged down GOP representatives who were at risk. On the flip side, Beto O'Rourke's unexpectedly strong performance helped Democrats take some seats in Texas. The key will be to find candidates who can push a Trump-like agenda while being capable of fighting back when falsely smeared as racist, homophobic, or worse — all with a more suburb-friendly tone. In other words, not your stereotypical Republican.
The Battle for the Suburbs hasn't ended; in some ways, it has just begun. But the stakes are enormous in 2020. We will either see Democrats take even more control, or we will have a chance to restore a government to its constitutional boundaries.

Ancient Lunar Gardening and Biodynamic Moon Gardening - Which is Best?
There are two methods of Moon Gardening, also known as Lunar Gardening. We have the traditional one passed down for perhaps thousands of years, which I call Ancient Moon Gardening, or the modern one which is called Biodynamic Moon Gardening. If you have searched online about Moon Gardening, you will have found a great deal of confusion as many sites do not say which method they use, and some seem to have made up their own system.
Ancient Moon Gardening method uses the Moon phase along with the fertile and barren signs of the Moon in the tropical Zodiac based on the seasons. The use of Moon being in a fertile sign or a barren sign has been around for thousands of years which is the reason I call it "Ancient Moon Gardening" and it is an elegant and easy system. Its long historical usage must mean it worked. Ancient people were clever and used what works and they were growing in order to survive. It is used as a timing system for when to plant and sow, when to prune to reduce growth, prune to increase growth, harvest for long-term storage, fertilize, spray, weed, feed, treat animals and pets, treat plant diseases, easy times for cleaning and maintenance and when to rest! For more details have a look at the article entitled Ancient Moon Gardening for Growth Health and Harmony.
Biodynamic Moon Gardening was devised by Rudolph Steiner in the 1930's. He was a brilliant philosopher, who amongst many other ground breaking ideas, devised the idea of Steiner education which is used in many specialized schools. He was fascinated by the forces that regulated life and growth. His ideas have developed into a much wider and wonderful system encompassing different techniques know overall as Biodynamic Gardening. It includes soil conditioners, compost making, sustainable ideals and cropping techniques, all of which were designed to re-animate the natural forces of the earth… wonderful stuff!
Biodynamic Moon gardening uses the waxing and waning phases of the Moon and the signs of the Moon. But the system uses the elements that are aligned with each type of plant. The theory is that the flower, the fruit, the leaf and the root of the plant are each stimulated by a different Moon Sign. Thus, a fire Moon position aids seeds and fruits, an earth position aids root crops, an air position aids flower growth and a water position aids the development of leaf crops.
In essence, when the Moon in the fire signs of Aries, Leo and Sagittarius it is good for planting, caring for and harvesting seed plants like tomatoes, peas, beans, and corn. When the Moon is in the earth signs of Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn it is good for planting, and harvesting any root crops. When the Moon is in the air signs of Gemini, Libra and Aquarius it is good for planting and picking flowers. When the Moon is in the water signs of Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces it is good for planting and harvesting leafy plants.
I started using this method many years ago and while my success rate went up, I still had stunning failures. I found that method does not work when you try and plant on any of the fire days… simply no go! I also found that it did not work for the days to prune, to spray or to harvest. And some of these are the jobs we spend the majority of our precious time on! To top it off, I was on many online discussion forums and I would watch while participants argued "whether a plant was a leaf plant or a flower plant when one could eat both the leaf, and the flower"! I think that a plant is a plant… it does not decide if it is a leaf or a flower. All it simply wants is to spread seed and propagate the species.
I found further complications when some sources of biodynamic moon gardening calendars insisted that one should use the actual constellation that that moon is in… and not the zodiac sign. The actual constellations vary markedly in size and sources disagree on the starting point of the zodiac, and I could not tell from one online source to another where the Moon was located!
Some biodynamic sources say that it is important to use the sidereal position of the Moon. The sidereal zodiac is a regular division of the sky into twelve equal parts (like the zodiac) but it again has different starting positons based on whether the Northern Indian sidereal or Southern Indian Sidereal Vedic system is in use.
A plant simply wants to grow and disseminate seed. It is not merely a root, a fruit, or a leaf, or a flower.
The tropical zodiac, with its fertile and barren days and a clear starting point at the Equinox, is based on the seasons and I figure gardening is all about the seasons!!
The ancients had thousands of years of practice in the art of survival and knew what they were talking about.
I have experimented with both and had much greater success with the ancient method of Moon gardening.
So, while my journey with Moon Gardening began with the Steiner system, I am now a firm supporter of the ancient methods which utilize the barren and fertile signs, along with the Moon phase.
This ancient system can be used to prune for growth, to prune to retard growth, to find the best days for effective spraying, to harvest for taste or to harvest for storage. As well as treat animals and plants for diseases.
To top it off… it tells me when to do maintenance and when to go to the hairdresser! Now that's a system I can appreciate!
I enjoy life whilst working in harmony with the earth, and as an Astrologer and Palmist for clients seeking personal guidance. I'm also the author of the Ancient Moon Gardening Easy Planning Calendar. This is a timetable for living in harmony with Mother Nature to produce abundant crops and beautiful gardens with easy and grace. Thank you for visiting and may your life be a garden finding happiness in every moment!
