Who can resist cupcakes? They are the perfect treat to whip up with the kids – everyone will be engrossed in the baking and decorating of their cupcakes before you even get to the best part: eating them! This cupcakes recipe covers all flavour preferences and is super easy to cook up with the little ones.
1. Preheat oven to 160°C (325°F). Line 12 x ½-cup-capacity (125ml) muffin tins with paper cupcake cases.
2. Place the butter in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring with a spatula, until melted.
3. Place the flour, sugar and baking powder in a big bowl and, using a whisk, mix to combine. Add the melted butter, the eggs, vanilla and milk and whisk until well combined and smooth.
4. Spoon the mixture into the prepared tins. Bake for 20 minutes or until cooked when tested with a skewer.
5. Wearing oven gloves, carefully remove the cupcakes from the oven and allow to cool in the tins for 5 minutes. Move onto wire racks to cool completely, before spreading with your favourite icing (see recipes, below).
1. Add 45g chopped dark chocolate to the butter in step 2 and stir until melted and smooth.
2. In step 3, replace 35g of the self-raising flour with 2 tablespoons sifted raw cacao or cocoa powder. Follow the rest of the steps. Spread cooled cakes with the chocolate cupcake icing.
1. Whisk 15g chopped freeze-dried strawberries into the cupcake mixture at the end of step 3, before baking.
2. Spread cooled cakes with the vanilla cupcake icing and sprinkle with some extra chopped freeze-dried strawberries.
1. Replace 35g of the self-raising (self-rising) flour in the cupcake mixture with 40g desiccated coconut.
2. At the end of step 3, whisk 1 tablespoon lemon juice and 1 tablespoon finely grated lemon rind into the mixture, before baking.
3. Spread cooled cakes with the vanilla cupcake icing and top with some toasted shredded coconut.
1. Place 80g chopped and softened cream cheese and 120g fresh firm ricotta in a medium bowl. Using a whisk, mix them together until lovely and smooth (you can use a food processor for this step if you don't have time to soften your cream cheese).
2. Add 2 tablespoons maple syrup and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and whisk to combine. Keep in the fridge and spread over the cooled cakes when ready to serve.
1. Add 1½ tablespoons sifted raw cacao or cocoa powder and an extra 2 teaspoons maple syrup to the vanilla icing and whisk to combine.

On Writing Hubert Harrison: The Voice of Harlem Radicalism, 1883-1918 (Columbia University Press, 2008)
Tags: Nathan I. Huggins, Hollis Lynch, struggle against white supremacy, social change, The Invention of the White Race, June A.V. Lindqvist, Enid M. Baa Library, G. James Fleming, Aida Harrison Richardson, William Harrison, Irene Louis Horton Harrison, Charles Richardson, Rare Book and Manuscript Library of Columbia University, Wesleyan University Press, Columbia University Press, A Hubert Harrison Reader
During the 1960s, like millions of other people, I was deeply affected by the movements for social change in the United States inspired by the civil rights struggle. As a student (at both Princeton and Harvard) in that period, I was afforded opportunity to study, to research, and to interact with scholars. My ancestral roots, as far back as identifiable, are entirely among working people. These factors, and many related experiences, have led me toward a life in which I have tried to mix worker- and community-based organizing (I worked in the trade union movement for over thirty years) with historical research and writing. My major preoccupation has been with the successes and failures of efforts at social change in the United States. In that context, I have focused on the role of white supremacy in undermining efforts at social change and on the importance of struggle against white supremacy to social change.
I was influenced toward serious study of matters of race and class in America through personal experiences and through the insightful and seminal work of an independent scholar and close personal friend, the late Theodore William Allen (author of the two-volume work The Invention of the White Race). Allen's writings on the role of white supremacy in U.S. history and on the centrality of the struggle against white supremacy to efforts at social change have attracted increased, and well deserved, attention. Familiarity with Allen's life and work disposed me to be receptive to the life and work of Harrison, another independent, anti-white-supremacist, working-class intellectual.
It was in this context, in the early 1980s, while working on a proposed Columbia University doctoral dissertation (under Professor Nathan I. Huggins and Hollis R. Lynch) on approaches to the struggle against white supremacy, that I first encountered the work of Hubert Harrison. When I first read microfilm copies of Harrison's two published books I was arrested by the clarity of his writing and the perceptiveness of his analysis. I knew that I had encountered a writer of great importance, and, within a short while, I decided to change my dissertation topic to a biography of Harrison. I searched for what I could find on him and was several hundred pages into his biography when, through the help of two Virgin Islanders—G. James Fleming, professor emeritus of Morgan State University in Baltimore, and June A. V. Lindqvist, librarian at the Enid M. Baa Library and Archives in Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas (and a relative of Harrison's wife)—I was put in contact with Harrison's daughter, Aida Harrison Richardson, and son, William Harrison.
I met Aida and William for the first time in 1983. Aida was a former school teacher and principal, William was a former attorney, and both were very bright, socially aware, race-conscious individuals who knew the value of their father's work. They, along with their mother, the late Irene Louise Horton Harrison, had preserved the remains of Hubert Harrison's once vast collection of papers and books in a series of Harlem apartments. After several meetings and discussions of their father's work, they very generously (before William's death in 1984) granted me access to some of their father's materials, which were in a room in William's Harlem apartment. At subsequent periods over the years I was provided access to additional materials (including Harrison's diary), by Aida and then (after she passed in 2001) by her son Charles Richardson. I proceeded to preserve and inventory the Hubert H. Harrison Papers (many of which were in fragile condition) and, when the family requested, I worked with them to place the papers with the Rare Book and Manuscript Library of Columbia University. I then worked with the Columbia staff to develop a finding aid.
From very early in this process I realized that Harrison was a major figure whose life and work merited a two-volume biography. I continued to work on Harrison and over the years I have published a number of articles and edited one book (A Hubert Harrison Reader, Wesleyan University Press, 2001) on him prior to the publication of Hubert Harrison: The Voice of Harlem Radicalism, 1883-1918 (Columbia University Press, 2008).
Hey Jeff, glad to see you are still waxing wrath. Look me up if you have time in D.C. Cheers from Max, who gets all he can eat.

Hubert Harrison (1883-1927) is one of the truly important figures of early twentieth-century America. A brilliant writer, orator, educator, critic, and political activist, he was described by the historian Joel A. Rogers, in World's Great Men of Color as "the foremost Afro-American intellect of his time" and "one of America's greatest minds." Rogers adds that "No one worked more seriously and indefatigably to enlighten" others and "none of the Afro-American leaders of his time [the era of Booker T. Washington, W. E. B. Du Bois, and Marcus Garvey] had a saner and more effective program." As Harlem grew into the "international Negro Mecca" and the "center of radical Black thought," A. Philip Randolph emphasized that Hubert Harrison was "the father of Harlem radicalism."
The life story of this Black, Caribbean-born, race- and class-conscious, freethinking, working-class intellectual-activist is a story that needs to be told. It offers a missing vision and voice that fill major gaps in the historical record and enable us to significantly reshape our understanding and interpretation of the first three decades of the twentieth century. Most important, perhaps, his life story offers profound insights for thinking about race, class, religion, immigration, war, democracy, and social change in America.
Born in St. Croix, Danish West Indies, in 1883, Harrison arrived in New York as a seventeen-year-old orphan in 1900. He made his mark in the United States by struggling against class and racial oppression, by helping to create a remarkably rich and vibrant intellectual life among African Americans, and by working for the enlightened development of the lives of "the common people." He consistently emphasized the need for working class people to develop class consciousness; for "Negroes" to develop race consciousness, self-reliance, and self-respect; and for all those he reached to challenge white supremacy and develop modern, scientific, critical, and independent thought as a means toward liberation.
A self-described "radical internationalist," Harrison was extremely well-versed in history and events in Africa, Asia, the Mideast, the Americas, and Europe. More than any other political leader of his era, he combined class consciousness and anti-white supremacist race consciousness in a coherent political radicalism. He opposed capitalism and maintained that white supremacy was central to capitalist rule in the United States. He emphasized that "politically, the Negro is the touchstone of the modern democratic idea"; that "as long as the Color Line exists, all the perfumed protestations of Democracy on the part of the white race" were "downright lying"; that "the cant of 'Democracy'" was "intended as dust in the eyes of white voters"; and that true democracy and equality for "Negroes" implied "a revolution . . . startling even to think of."
Working from this theoretical framework, he was active with a wide variety of movements and organizations and played unique, signal roles in the development of what were, up to that time, the largest class radical movement (socialism) and the largest race radical movement (the "New Negro"/Garvey movement) in U.S. history. His ideas on the centrality of the struggle against white supremacy anticipated the profound transformative power of the Civil Rights/Black Liberation struggles of the 1960s and his thoughts on "democracy in America" offer penetrating insights on the limitations and potential of America in the twenty-first century.
Harrison served as the foremost Black organizer, agitator, and theoretician in the Socialist Party of New York during its 1912 heyday; he founded the first organization (the Liberty League) and the first newspaper (The Voice) of the militant, World War I-era "New Negro" movement; and he served as the editor of the Negro World and principal radical influence on the Garvey movement during its radical high point in 1920.
His views on race and class profoundly influenced a generation of "New Negro" militants including the class radical A. Philip Randolph and the race radical Marcus Garvey. Considered more race conscious than Randolph and more class conscious than Garvey, Harrison is the key link in the ideological unity of the two great trends of the Black Liberation Movement—the labor and civil rights trend associated with Martin Luther King, Jr., and the race and nationalist trend associated with Malcolm X. (Randolph and Garvey were, respectively, the direct links to King marching on Washington, with Randolph at his side, and to Malcolm, whose parents were involved with the Garvey movement, speaking militantly and proudly on street corners in Harlem.)
Harrison was not only a political radical, however. Rogers described him as an "Intellectual Giant and Free-Lance Educator," whose contributions were wide-ranging, innovative, and influential. He was an immensely skilled and popular orator and educator who spoke and/or read six languages; a prolific and highly praised journalist, critic, and book reviewer (reportedly the first regular Black book reviewer in history); a pioneer Black activist in the freethought and birth control movements; a bibliophile and library builder and popularizer who helped develop the 135th Street Public Library into an international center for research in Black culture, and a promoter and aid to Black writers and artists. In his later years he was the leading Black lecturer for the New York City Board of Education and one of its foremost orators. Though he was a trailblazing literary critic in Harlem during the period known as the Harlem Renaissance, he questioned the "Renaissance" concept on grounds of its willingness to take "standards of value ready-made from white society" and on its claim to being a significant new re-birth. (He maintained that "there had been an uninterrupted," though ignored, "stream of literary and artistic products" flowing "from Negro writers from 1850" into the 1920s.)

Should individuals—such as CEOs or even general counsel—be held civilly responsible for antitrust violations allegedly committed by their companies? Should they be defendants in civil antitrust lawsuits brought by the government against their employers?
These questions are becoming less hypothetical and more of a reality as the Antitrust Division (Division) of the Department of Justice (DOJ) apparently has vowed to implement the so-called Yates Memorandum—a policy statement recently issued by a key DOJ official for the entire Department. This guidance directs DOJ attorneys and investigators pursuing corporate misconduct cases to focus on identifying individuals who were responsible for the illegal conduct and holding them "accountable" for such conduct. Notably for antitrust enforcement, this policy would apply to both criminal and civil matters.
If this policy change is implemented in civil antitrust cases, it will be a sea change for defendants and will complicate the defense of government civil antitrust investigations, possibly divide executives from the common defense of their companies, and increase government leverage to force settlements and concessions.
The Antitrust Division has long sought to enforce the antitrust laws against individuals in criminal cases. The stated policy of the Division is to hold the highest-level company officials criminally responsible. Company settlements in criminal cases typically carve out such individuals, and these executives face prosecution, jail time, and fines. For example, the Division's investigation into price-fixing in the automotive parts industry has resulted in over 50 individuals being criminally charged.
In civil antitrust cases, at least in the modern era, the Division has exhibited a different policy. These cases are about corporate behavior, and unless there is a need to include some individuals to ensure effective relief—a rarity, to be sure—the Division focuses on enjoining corporate behavior. In fact, the Division's Policy Manual does not address including individuals in civil cases.
The Division, however, does have the power to sue individual executives in civil cases. While civil actions against individuals in the modern era are rare, it was more routine in the early days of antitrust enforcement for the government to name corporate officers as individual defendants. In landmark cases such as United States v. Standard Oil and United States v. American Tobacco, the government sued scores of executives. Corporate officers even were exposed to the risk of being named as individual defendants in early civil actions to enjoin mergers as late as the 1940s.
We will be looking, going forward, at whether there ought to be individual accountability. It doesn't mean we're going to do it, but it is I think a fair thing for the deputy attorney general to ask all components [of the DOJ] to look at [whether] there is an additional deterrent effect that comes with holding responsible the individuals who adopt a policy that is in violation of the antitrust laws or some other federal standard.
As the new developments at the Antitrust Division signal, we may soon return to a bygone era when the government, in civil antitrust cases, marched directors and officers into court along with their companies.
These policy changes, if implemented, would represent a deliberate Antitrust Division strategy to align the interests of a corporate entity against its executives. By focusing on individual misconduct from the outset of an investigation, Antitrust Division attorneys could look to use their leverage to put a wedge between corporations and their executives. If implemented, these changes will dramatically affect the manner in which high-level employees and corporations may approach civil investigations.
Moving forward, corporations and executives must be aware of their potentially adversarial relationship at the outset of an investigation. While cooperation and full disclosure of certain facts may reduce a corporation's potential liability, it could also simply shift the burden of accountability to an executive. Cooperating with government investigations into possible antitrust violations could become more divisive, as executives will be wary of the legal ramifications of admitting to involvement in potentially illegal activity. Ultimately, the competing interests of executives and employers could make antitrust investigations more expensive and create irreconcilable tension between executives and their companies.
Individual executives may also be forced to take action to respond to the changing landscape. Executives may decide to retain their own counsel from the outset of an investigation to ensure that they have representation that adequately protects their interests. Executives—and their employers—should have a thorough understanding of any indemnification agreements they have in place. Without such protection, executives could be faced with a difficult choice at the outset of an investigation between personally bearing the cost of representation, or risking serious damage to their defense.

A Sky Harsh Blue Turns Black
It's notable that the likes of VNV and Covenant remixed Wumpscut last time out, as it was projects like these that began to dominate the industrial-gothic club sound as we entered the 21st century. Had Wumpscut become last season's fashion? Not if Wreath Of Barbs was anything to go by. Opening The Gates Of Hell might be standard issue dark electro W-style, but it's still indicative of a return to form after the hiccup of the previous album. This leads to Deliverance, one of the more brisker tracks and with a notably 'cleaner' sound than most, the interplay of the synth layers and vocoded chorus again indicating a return to quality after the some of the cluttered mixes we'd encountered a few years previous.
The vocoder stays out for Wreath Of Barbs. Add a Lep Zeppelin drum loop, a psaltery twang and then stack the synths on top, and the result is probably the catchiest tune Rudy ever released. If "Deliverance" kept Wumpscut on scene dance floors during the futurepop boom, this was the kind of thing that FILLED them. Well, it was either that or C(K)hristfuck (spelling differs by version). The one 'up and in your face' cut from this era, it's conceptually a successor to "Golgotha", sharp keys simultaneously fetishizing the Crucifixion of Christ whilst highlighting the futility of his sacrifice, working in a hint of 'Fight Club' for good measure.
Alas, the album isn't as consistent as the mid-90s releases. Dr Thodt is a tedious grind, a disappointing return for Aleta Welling's spoken words, and the final four tracks are more of a procedural march to the end of album than any real attempt to see it out with a bang. But for now at least, Wumpscut is safe in terms of continued relevance.
Singles: These were still a thing. 'Deliverance' got a six-track release with four alternate versions – two 'close to the album' edits and two remixes – the "Reminsicing Mix" is a repetitive slog, the "Soldatengrab" interesting but hardly revolutionary stripped-down take. There's also an exclusive track "Ruda", referring to Daniel and Manuela Ruda, a couple recently tried and convicted for murder. Look up the story if you don't remember it– but the track it inspired is just a load of noise and spoken words with no real spark of inspiration.
As for 'Wreath of Barbs', it got the full deluxe treatment. Several remixes were commissioned and fans were also invited to submit their own, with the result being two EPs, the 'Classic' EP containing versions that kept to the pattern of the original song, whilst 'Freestyle' EP was kept for submissions that twisted the original samples into something quite different. Unlike "Totmacher", this was a tune that had no shortage of hooks (or should that be 'barbs'?) and hence the vast cast of mixers had plenty to work with. There was even a remix pack released so fans could submit their own, with the contest winners included on the disc.
Working through all of them is no small undertaking – some mixes deviate into Volkpalast-am-Montag obscurity (Der Blutharsch) or IDM minimalism (Press To Transmit), whilst others extract new melodies from the track's signature psaltery sample (Der Blutrausch and Grey/Scale). But if you just want to pick out the best one, it's "Neuroticfish Mix 2". Actually masterminded by the bands keyboard player Henning Verlage, it ups the songs rock quotient, including a new NDH-style vocal that finally allows you to hear what the words are! (This version is also known as the 'Unheilig Remix' – I'll explain this later!).
Versions: The usual slew of alternate versions and reissues, though the deluxe selection box was actually a bag this time. The bonus CD contained within was "DJ Dwarf One", which was really the 'Deliverance' single retitled. Amongst the extras was a drink called 'Liquid Soylent', though I'm told it's just Red Bull in the can. As a note, most versions, even the basic CD (but not the LP) include the bonus track "Eclipse (Kaelte Container Version)" – the Wumpscut remix of the Kirlian Camera song.
The Concentrated Camp edition also includes the complete DJ Dwarf One, plus a sizeable collection of additional remixes, many dating many years after the original album. There are some non-essential mixes of the albums lesser tunes, plus yet-more takes on the title track. This unfortunately sees the first of many 'Nigen Remixes', who saw it fit to do dubstep spin-offs of Rudy's music – the later Camp editions are particularly blighted by these.
But enough of that shit for now – there's at least three worthwhile versions. Solitary Experiments and A7ie put in competent interpretations than manage a decent even-parts mix of their ideas and Rudy's. The highlight is the "Violet Remix" – really a cover version by The Violet Steam Experience. Dark electronics given the steampunk treatment with a newly recorded female vocal? It actually works in a German grufti-baiting cross-genre kind of way!
There was a three year gap before the next studio album, with compilation/exploitation releases filling in the gap (more on those later). This was the last time we'd experience such a gap. From 2004, Rudy would issue one album every year until 2016. Bone Peeler began the series of Wumpscut annuals, and if it was anything to go by, it wasn't a good sign of things to come. Crown Of Thorns opens the album. The clock chime, marching beat and alternating harsh/vocoded voices were all trademark sounds of this project. But the somehow the track simply didn't have any mark of greatness. It did what it did well enough, but no part of it leap out of the speaker cones and impressed itself upon you.
Just A Tenderness had the same problem. Built around a metronomic loop, it throbbed and pulsed away, neither repulsing the willing listener nor drawing them in. If the number of remixes commissioned was anything to go by, it was obviously intended as the stand-out club track. But with harsher forms of industrial becoming the dominant force club play around this time, a recording this ordinary was never going to get much attention. And the album carries on like this – occasionally an attractive synth texture or well-placed sample, offset by the some overly-forced rhymes or deviations into pointlessness, but it sounds like Rudy is just going through the motions.
There is a single highlight, most likely accidental. Rise Again nails the mixture of catchy, flute-staccato synth riff and a memorable turn of phrase. But when the stand-out lyric is "Is it worth to rise again?", it is too easy to associate this line with Rudy himself rather than the messiah or rebellion figure he probably intended this song to represent.
Versions: There was a bonus remix disc that came with most of the European versions of this album – even the non-boxset version. The box itself gets an additional 12" single, and, as usual, you can obtain the complete story on the Concentrated Camp version. Note that there's a copy-protected version of the CD out there somewhere, which could be problematic for some. Copy-protected CDs were never popular in an era where many people, especially tech-savvy industrial music fans, listened to albums on PCs, but that's the first and last we'll hear about this in the Wumpscut story.
There's a decent collection of name remixers at work – a pity that they didn't have much interesting material to work with. Many tried, but no-one knew what to do with "Just A Tenderness" (there's even a remix pack if you fancy a go yourself). Suicide Commando tries and nearly succeeds in injecting some life into "Crown of Thorns", Das Ich have an earnest attempt to make something interesting out of the otherwise-forgettable "Your Last Salute" and Haus Arafna devise a radical darkambient "Rise Again". But like the album, the only real moment of success occurs largely by default – Datom adds a livelier rhythmic element to "Rise Again", resists the temptation to alter the song structure to any great extent, and we have our diamond in the dust.
And now for the divisive moment. 2005's Evoke. For this album, Rudy adopted a cleaner tone, both in terms of production and artwork. Female vocals are also more prominent here than on any other Wumpscut release. For the industrial purists still gripping onto the 1990s, it was a travesty. For scene DJs, it was too soft and slow to work into their sets. But there was something special occurring here for those with more open minds. It was a Wumpscut album with a distinct "feel".
Sure, if you want a club cut, Churist Churist is as good as any – driving rhythm and unsubtle synth stabs adorned with constructed-language lyrics and apocalyptic samples from "Protect and Survive". With that box ticked, the remainder of the album is able to focus on more subtle concepts. The title track, for instance, is a downtempo affair, the angular beat layered with mellow synth tones, chiptune flourishes providing the hook.
It's the female vocal tracks that will really divide the audience. :W: regular Aleta Welling ain't on here – instead the guest voice is the previously-unknown Jane M., singing rather than speaking the words on three songs. The album opener Maiden revives the concept of waltz time Wumpscut to good effect, Don't Go is darkwave pop that would also have worked if the lyrics weren't so repetitive, but Hold is the real gem. Plucked strings and a minimal tech groove the basis for one of the few genuinely touching Wumpscut tunes. The back end of the album doesn't offer any individual highlights, but the album as a whole works as a complete piece. It's the last time I can honestly say that occurred.
Singles: There was a spin-off EP entitled Blondi. Unfortunately, it's mainly based around remixes of "Rush", one of the albums lesser tracks. That said, Der Blutharsch makes a surprisingly strong attempt at injecting some life in a tune in his unique psychemartial style. There's also the "80 64C" remix, a partial conversion to the chiptune style alluded to by the title track, and actually enhancing the appeal of a song that simply didn't develop sufficiently in its original form.
Versions: Like 'Bone Peeler', the European version had an extra remix CD as standard, and also an 'Evokebox' with a double vinyl version of the album. As usual, the Concentrated Camp edition has the lot, including all the mixes from 'Blondi' and several alternate versions of almost every other track.
Unless you're a devotee of the usual band of retainers, just head straight for the two mixes of "Hold" by the two projects that really know what to do with a female vocal. Yendri's version blends a walking bassline with countless embellishments that take the song in new directions, whilst Kirlian Camera deliver what is really a quasi-cover, with Elena Fossi re-recording the vocal and the mix drawn out to seven-and-three-quarter minutes. The end result is a dark synth epic with an orchestrated outro, a must-hear for KC fans, no matter what Rudy's usual crowd thought of it!

"Wish I known about this website at the..."
I arrived on the cardiology ward at 8.45am 29/10/09 to be admitted as a day patient and was greeted by one of the senior staff and my treatment was explained to me. By 10am I had seen the doctor, had bloods taken and told the anaesthetist was on his way to explain my procedure. The staff acted very quickly when a elderly lady opposite my bed needed emergency treatment. the staff were very friendly.
Kept informed to what was happening instead of me having to keep asking, causing me to become stressed which did nt help my condion.
Problems arose when I asked about my treatment, I was told there was only one cardiac team on duty in the hospital and they had been put behlnd schedule due to attending the elderly lady (who sadly died) then they were in theatre allafternoon. I finally had my treatment at 4.45pm, While waiting for the anaestetist one of the team members commented that finished at 6pm , what had they all beendopmg brtween 9am and 11am .the operation takesabout twenty minutes, there was only two of us waiting that day so what was the delay. I was told that there was a seriously ill man on anogther ward needing my bed (there was an empty bed opposite me he could have had, even my normally placid husband got very cross.


It has to be sent off to Sydney and they will more than likely replace it with a new slim. 2-6 weeks without my PS3 will kill me lol.
Ohhh no mate bad luck!! 2-6 weeks is ages.
Will you miss any races while your away?
1. No surprise that GT5 could fry a system.
2. If you have downloaded any video content of Playstation store, you will not be able to use it on your new machine unless your old one is deactivated. You may need to hassle Sony for this. The way it works is your account ('Monstar') has been activated against your old console. Your name can be activated against several consoles, and I believe the max number for game content is 5. But the video content is locked to 1 machine only.
3. You will not get the same machine back, so you have more than likely lost everything. I perform a backup of my PS3 every few months. You should do this too in the future to make the loss more bearable.

Q: Where should I start on a large concurrent programming assignment? My task is to implement a distributed semaphore system (links to description) and an application for it. I will be using Java sockets, and it will use watermark arrays and priority queues (not sure where), and so I am curious about how to tackle this project. Specifically, I'd like to know what is a good first-step goal, or a simple subsystem I can implement. At the moment, I just don't know where to focus my attention.
The application is a floating license system - like in a computer lab with only one copy of a software (maybe a CAD program), which allows only one PC at a time to use the software. When one machine is using the software, the access to the software is locked. When that machine is done using it, it gives it up and whomever was first in requesting should be next.
Here's  the pseudo-code algorithm referenced - http://i.imgur.com/q9kRm.png

A: Generic Answer
Semaphore is a resource allocation technique to manage deadlocks and race conditions via priority queues. Putting it metaphorically, you have 3 bicycles for hire. Suppose, you hire it on a first come first serve basis. So if you have hired all your 3 bicycles and a fourth person requests it, he must wait until one of them has brought the bicycle back. There are chances that you may reserve the bike for someone, someone may cancel a already reserved bike and so on. Similar in case of processes that want to acquire some resources, semaphores are used.
In case of a distributed semaphore, there could be multiple resources that could be accessed by multiple processes. Assume a server hosts an application and can host multiple instances of it and the user can use the application if it is free. Let server be S1,S2,.. Sn while the application be A1,A2,...An and users be U1,U2,...Un. So if the first server could host three instances of the application then it would be denoted as S1A1,S1A2,S1A3. Also assume the application instances as slots or boxes for easy understanding. A slot is considered empty when it is free and full when it is busy. So, in this case, the following method is suggested

*

*User requests the application

*The request is passed to a priority queue.

*The queue runs a continuous background process to search for free slots and once a free slot is found, passes the request to the application to start processing

*Once a slot gets the request, they mark themselves busy and starts processing and marks themselves free when they finish processing

*The slots periodically broadcasts their status to the queue so that the queue could forward the requests once a slot becomes free

Recommended resources

*

*This model is based on centralized message brokering. The queue that processes the request should always be available. There can also be broker-less model that could be implemented in a different way

*Semaphore Programming  on Wikipedia

*The Little Book on Semaphores is a superb resources freely available

*Semaphore is based on shared memory model. Actor Model would give a new insight to solve this problem in a different way

Specific answer to the question in context
Looking at the code, I prefer the classical version of a semaphore. Java has a built-in semaphore package to do this and you could just easily build on it.

Specifically, I'd like to know what is a good first-step goal, or a simple subsystem I can implement.

Assuming only one instance of the application should be run on the LAN

*

*Use the package suggested above

*Create the semaphore with a built-in queue mechanism (similar to a stack) and implement it as a server

*When a user starts the application, it searches for the semaphore, decrements the count (in this case just 0 since only a single instance is to be allowed) and gives user the access to the application

*When an other user starts the application, it searches for the semaphore, since it is 0, puts the user in the queue and gives a message to the user that the application is busy

*When the first user exits the application, the semaphore is incremented, the resource becomes available, the user is intimated and he can now start the application.

*The semaphore can be implemented as a stand-alone server (possibly with a simple web interface) that could be coupled with the application.

The following caveats are worth thinking

*

*Queues may be flushed entirely or priority can be changed

*Coupling it with the application as a server, requires there would be only one version of the server on the LAN

*Prepare for crashes or unattended message queues (User request access but not available when the application is free)

I would probably suggest the following for better understanding

*

*Follow this link for better understanding

*Try SCALA. You can use all your existing JAVA libraries plus you get good concurrency

*Have a look at ZMQ. This could be the option if you abstract out the entire process into a separate messaging application that interacts with the resources

*Read about the AutoCAD licensing system (they implement a licensing model that matches few of your requirements)

EDIT
Answer completely edited since the original answer is based on a much broader perspective

A: Consider starting with "handshake" sub-system - the one that will allow licensed application running at particular machine to register a session at your license server and obtain a token uniquely identifying it for further interactions.
I think it would be reasonable for this subsystem to also include some "negotiation" about further communication protocol ("heartbeat signals will be expected to exchange at a rate between 5 and 10 seconds" - stuff like that).

 Next logical step would probably be establishing kind of "heartbeat" module - the one that would allow registered machine and server to... oops sorry you asked about first-step goal that one doesn't fit.

Learning it the Hard Way
Some lessons in life are learnt in a very hard way. There are some undeniable truth in the universe but for you to learn them and accept them might take an arduous path and a long time. Life, for me has unfolded the hard way out.
Life, never had been picture perfect in my case. What, with having lost my father at an early age and learning to fend for myself had made me a stronger person since childhood. But the overall warmth and cushioning of a stable family life under the guidance of a very strong mother however took care of most of the hardships and kept life fairly simple and unassuming. One just had to study well and take care not to get headlong into big mishaps, which however, I had my share, but that's another story.
So, there I was breezing through a relatively simple life. A bright academic track record in school and college followed by a management degree from a B school and landing of the first job in the corporate sector had taken a relatively simple and straightforward route. To be honest, I never realized but my brother and mother, to a large extent had sheltered me from the harsh realities of life in the initial years.
But then I got married. It was an arranged marriage. A decade into my professional life, I was doing quite well and the he came along the conventional route, seemingly well- settled and the decision was taken. Marriage happened and I moved outside the country to far off Malaysia, where wives, on spouse visa where not allowed to work.
For the first time in my life I as homebound. To be honest in the initial few days I enjoyed the privilege of having lots of free time. I indulged myself in everything I hadn't got time to do much. I read a lot of books, took care of my fitness, dived headlong into housekeeping, cooking, hosting get together, whatever was expected of me in such a situation. Soon, we were blessed with a son and I moved back to India to stay while the husband too, took an Indian assignment for a year or so, to be around.
This was my first tryst with the subtle bias against non-working partners. Suddenly, I was humiliated every turn through his barbed and cynical remarks, thrown at the slightest provocation about my status as a non-contributing member in the household. The subtlety soon made way to more open outbursts and I, couldn't imagine that a person who was coerced into leaving the job she never wanted to give up in the first place, was at the receiving end of such backlash.
Things steadily deteriorated with him having moved back to Malaysia within one and a half year and I was taking care of my son all alone in a city, with which I wasn't much familiar nor had anyone had to turn to. My mother was forbidden to stay at my place even though there was no on eat home because of his prejudices against wife's mother enjoying the luxury of freeloading at his place, under his expense, as he put it. The fact that I was taking acre of his son, all alone, and was running around the town running errand on his behalf made no enhancement in my value as a wife. Every penny in the budget was accounted for and I had to maintain a log of how many nights during the harsh summer, I had switched on the A.C, at his expense, how many litres of petrol I exhausted, when I took my son for hid doctor's appointment (Please note that it was the only time during the initial three years of my son's life that we used the family car) and many more such instances meant to damage my self-esteem.
I learned the hard way that I need to earn my self-respect and that of my family back on my own merit. I couldn't leave behind my son in unfamiliar hands so I could not venture into a full time job. But I started experimenting with what I was reasonably proficient at and though the initial search took a couple of months, soon the offers started pouring in and I became quite self-sufficient, with my own earnings by working as a Content Writer and Developer, on a freelance basis.
Being financially independent is mandatory for every woman, be of any class and though it took me some time to realize this I am never ever going to change my status again.

Grove council addresses tornado siren usage
Kaylea M. Hutson-Miller •�khutson@grovesun.com
When does the tornado siren go off in Grove, and how do city entities decide who is an acceptable firm for engineering work, were two of the questions asked during the May 7 Grove City Council meeting.
The first question, posed by Councilman Matt Henderson, came after recent storms caused the sirens to go off for an extended period of time.
Grove Police Chief Mark Morris answered Henderson's questions. He referred to the policy, established in April 2013 by himself, Grove Fire Chief Mike Reed, and Grove EMS Director Jeff Dozier.
In it, the policy directs the city's emergency management director, Robert Real, or his designee, to sound the alarm if a tornado is spotted within the Grove area.
The area is defined as within eight miles of the Third and Main stoplight.
Morris said while the sirens were sounded appropriately, he told the council they would revisit the policy if so directed.
He also indicated he would rather have the sirens go off, and nothing happen, than residents be hit with a tornado without warning.
The second question, concerning the bidding process for engineering work at the Grove Regional Airport, was raised by Tim McCrary, with Rose & McCrary, P.C., Engineering & Land Surveying.
McCrary spoke to the council about the airport board's decision to go a non-local company for the upcoming engineering work.
McCrary said he was not at the meeting to impugn the selection process, as he respects the airport board members.
But rather he wanted to clear up some confusion with the council concerning his firm's qualifications for the project.
He told the council the firm had engaged a plan with a nationally-recognized firm, to help "fill the void" on Rose & McCrary's resume concerning aeronautics engineering.
He asked the council to reconsider who the bids were going to, if two firms were equally viable, but only one considered local.
"We're just looking for our fair shot," McCrary said. "When we have holes, we bring in national firms to support us."
Eddie Rose, chairman of the airport board, told the council that after reading through the proposals, the board chose to go with a different firm.
He admitted it was a "tight competition," but the board thought the other firm carried more expertise when it came to working with state officials.
The airport board's request regarding awarding the engineering bid to Olson Associates, a firm which has six professional engineers dedicated solely to engineering was approved unanimously by the council.
One of the engineers who will work on the projects at the airport is Kelly Fincannon, who previously served as an engineer for the airport during the past 12 years while employed with Garver Engineering.
Other residents attended the meeting to raise concerns about an application made by Rhett Minson and ACR Dreams, LLC., to designate 1437 Lakeside Drive as a vacation rental home.
During a previous meeting, the owners of the home came to the council to request approval of their application for a special use permit - a needed step in designating the property as a vacation rental home.
During that meeting, the council did not act on the agenda item. Because no vote was taken, property representatives asked for the issue to be reconsidered during the May 7 meeting.
Neighborhood resident Kim Chuculate was one of the most vocal opponents to the plan.
She raised multiple questions about the viability of the vacation rental home within her neighborhood and the damage it could do to the neighborhood's property values.
Andy Stewart, a local businessman, spoke in favor of the special use permit.
He reminded those gathered Grove is a tourism-based economy, and that safeguards would be put into place - based upon the application requirements - to help with their concerns.
He also commended the property owners for going through with the formal regulations.
Stewart said others vacation home by owner properties are available in the area, without completing the reporting process.
During the discussion, Councilman Ivan Devitt reminded the residents the special use permit was simply a step in the process, saying the owners would still need to meet a lot of criteria before having an official license issued.
The special use permit passed by a vote of 4 to 1, with Councilman Josh McElhaney casting the dissenting vote.
In other business the council:
• approved a plan to go with IBTS for the preparation of a comprehensive plan for the city.
• approved a letter of engagement with Elfrink and Associates to conduct the 2018-19 city audit.
• approved a public hearing set for May 21, concerning five structures within Pier 59, 11601 Highway 59, Groveport, to determine if the structures are "detrimental to the health, safety and welfare of the public."
• approved moving forward with a grant application with AARP, for a LED Flashing warning pedestrian signs on Highway 59 in the downtown area. In order to do this, the council needed to approve an agreement with the Oklahoma Department of Transportation concerning the signage placement and management.
• appointed Don Nielsen to a term ending Sept. 30, 2021, and Ivan Devitt to a term ending Sept. 30, 2019 to the Grove Municipal Services Authority. Devitt abstained from the vote.
• set a work session for the 2019-20 budget at 4 p.m., Thursday, May 23. The meeting will take place in the council chambers, at the community center.

Russia Faces Change, But Putin Isn't Going Anywhere
New Russian Positivity
Russia's Game in Africa
Vladimir Bukovsky: "The more protests there are, the more likely political prisoners will be released"
Alina Polyakova: "The idea that you can have a real democracy in Russia is an existential threat to the Putin regime"
Andrey Piontkovsky: Which Will Fall First – the Regime or Russia as a State?
Putin's political model is obsolete, says Andrei Piontkovsky
According to Andrey Piontkovsky, Senior Fellow at the Russian Academy of Sciences' Institute for Systems Analysis, Vladimir Putin's one man dictatorship has been effectively put into place as of September 2011. Piontkovsky spoke with IMR's Olga Khvostunova about the catastrophic consequences of this regime and about the essential role that the political elite plays in this process.
Olga Khvostunova: How would you describe the Russian political events that took place in September?
Andrey Piontkovsky: On September 24, a new political regime was de facto established. Until that moment, we lived in an authoritarian system that allowed for various scenarios of development, but from now on, the country is living under the regime of a lifetime one-man dictatorship.
O.Kh.: What are the characteristics of this regime?
A.P.: A lifetime one-man dictatorship translates into three things. First, Putin will never leave his post voluntarily until his death. But since he is a relatively young man who takes care of his health, he has at least 20 years left in him. Second, a lifetime dictatorship means that if Putin loses power, some very unpleasant things will be waiting for him. He'll end up in jail, at the very least. This has been proven by the experiences of all dictators, including the latest developments in North Africa. Third, if he holds out for long, it will lead the country to collapse, meaning, in turn, that the regime will be lifelong not just for Putin, but for Russia as well.
O.Kh.: Why do you think that despite knowing the history of how dictatorships always end badly has Putin gone ahead and installed such a regime?
A.P.: The thing is that while on top, at some point your psychology distorts, and any critical attitude towards yourself vanishes. Putin is already on the verge of clinical inadequacy. Just remember him showing off and diving in the Azov Sea when he supposedly discovered two ancient Greek vases. Only two hypotheses explain his behavior. First, the most frightening in my view, is that he actually believes he found these vases. Second, no less shocking, is that he believes we are going to believe him. It's the same with his assessments of political prospects.
O.Kh.: How unexpected was Putin's return?
A.P.: The fact itself that Putin, who never leaves, was going to be the next Russian president did not seem new or unexpected to observers. But the majority of the Russian political class was shocked by the utterly cynical way in which the reshuffle was implemented. Just as shocking was the humiliation that [President Dmitry] Medvedev was exposed to, a person considered by mainstream liberals to be the next president and the possible architect of a new "perestroika" or "thaw period."
O.Kh.: You are saying that this political decision was shocking for the elite. But why? It's hard to believe that the elite didn't understand which direction the country was moving in.
A.P.: The decision itself was not shocking. Putin's return was expected. But the majority was shocked by the style, the cynical form of this extravagaza. It was an exquisite derision. See, Medvedev really wanted to stay in his position, but he couldn't do it without Putin's permission.
All this fuss, maintaining an image of intrigue, Medvedev's coquettish announcements that he was considering various options, all these acts were only attempts to persuade Putin to let him stay. But Putin decided otherwise: he chose to return. The reason for instituting Medvedev was to cause illusions among the political class during his four year tenure. The elites understood that Putin's political model exhausted itself, but didn't step out in opposition to it because they deluded themselves with vague hopes.
O.Kh.: In your opinion, why has Putin decided to come back?
A.P.: Though Medvedev is absolutely loyal, a group of decisive people could have used him as an instrument for change. According to the Russian Constitution, the prime minister can be fired by a presidential decree. Therefore, Putin made a sober judgement that he shouldn't take this risk for another six-year term.
О.Kh.: What is going to happen to the country when Putin returns?
A.P.: His rule will lead to the marginalization and decline of the country.

As soon as I saw this line up I knew it was going to be a great night. The Robin 2 is a well known and well loved local venue, and has a great reputation for hosting some massive names. Last gig I came to was Inglorious, and before that Dirty DC, both were filled to the brim.
So there was no surprises when I saw the place filling up rapidly, well before the support band were due on. Fires That Divide are a 4 piece rock band from the West Midlands, formed back in 2014. They describe their material as an eclectic range of musical creativity delivered with a hard punch.
From left: Steve Knight (bass guitar), Kirk Shuttleworth (lead vocals and guitar), Steven Norton (guitar) and Marc Harris (drums).
For anyone who hasn't heard of these guys before, why not take a look at my feature from earlier this year.
Okay so back to their latest performance. These guys showed that they had the balls to perform at big venues such as The Robin 2. Other than a couple of technical issues which were out of their control, they put on a strong performance, and had a good crowd of followers at the event.
They performed some new material which I particularly enjoyed, as well as some already established tunes such as Vector Man. Take a look at the video footage I caught along the way, and if you like what you see, why not visit Fires That Divide on facebook and give their page a like/follow! Or visit their website here.
I really hope to see Fires That Divide gigging again soon, as they are a force to be reckoned with, and after seeing them in this setting, supporting a massive band such as Diamond Head, I know this is where they belong. Well done lads!
I may still have a surprise or two up my sleeve involving this bunch, all will be revealed!
Then it was time for the headline act, Diamond Head. This band was originally formed in 1976 in the town of Stourbridge. The band is recognised as one of the leading members of the new wave of British heavy metal movement.
Needless to say, this band is well rehearsed and could probably but on a great show in their sleep, and this gig was no exception, a brilliant performance which delivered exactly what their fans expected and needed from them.
The star of the show for me will always be Brian Tatler, an amazing guitarist.
Take a look at some video footage I caught of these guys in action.
If you want to find out more about Diamond Head, why not visit their website to find out more about up coming gigs or follow them on facebook.
