School Closures and Mergers
ARCHDIOCESE OF NEW YORK ANNOUNCES ELEMENTARY SCHOOL CLOSURES AND MERGERS
March 7, 2008; New York, NY. — In an effort to strengthen its large elementary school system with a strategic redeployment of resources including enriched educational opportunities for students, the Archdiocese of New York announced today that six elementary schools will close at the end of this school year in June 2008 and four elementary schools will merge into two new schools to open in September 2008. As major reasons for this action the Archdiocese cited continuing challenges to the schools' future including escalating operating costs and declining enrollment all set within the larger context of increased economic pressures on Catholic school families throughout the region, and the lack of both tax relief for those parents and government support for religious and independent schools.
The six elementary schools slated for closure are St. Pius V in the Bronx, Holy Rosary in Hawthorne, Immaculate Conception in Irvington, St. Lawrence O'Toole in Brewster, Immaculate Conception School in Stony Point and St. Catherine of Alexandria in Blauvelt.
In the Bronx, St. Frances of Rome School and St. Anthony School on Matilda Avenue will merge. The new school will be located in the building now used by St. Anthony School. Two Port Chester schools, Holy Rosary School and Corpus Christi will merge; the new school to be located in the facility now used by Corpus Christi.
The closing of six schools affects about 1\% of all the Catholic elementary school students in the Archdiocese and all these students will be assured of a seat in another Catholic elementary school nearby.
Many students in both closing and merging schools participate in the Cardinal's Scholarship Program. Students will retain these scholarships as they move on to a different or newly merged Catholic school in the Archdiocese when they successfully complete their regular annual re-qualification process.
Specific criteria used for identifying elementary schools for closure included a pattern of, and projections for, declining enrollment and rising operating deficits. Many religious and independent schools throughout the area are feeling the economic crunch. These schools educate 15\% of the total school age population in New York State and 20\% of that population in New York City. While there has been significant political rhetoric about helping religious and independent schools because they are an important part of American education, there has been little action. State officials are spending $22 billion on public education while offering no relief for parents with children in religious and independent schools.
Before final decisions were made on school closures and mergers, a history and profile of each school was reviewed and alternatives to closure were carefully considered. The proximity of other Catholic elementary schools was also considered to insure that a Catholic educational community would be available to all students of closed schools.
For additional information about individual school closures and mergers, please see below:
School Closures:
413 East 144 Street
Since 2004 enrollment at St. Pius V School has declined by 75 students to a total of 229. Students transferring from St. Pius to nearby St. Jerome School [222 Alexander Avenue] will enjoy a new media center and computer lab, a science lab and a broad range of extracurricular activities. An involved and supportive Advisory Board and its alumni association also strengthen St. Jerome. Other nearby Catholic schools include Immaculate Conception [East 151 Street]; Sts. Peter and Paul [838 Brook Avenue]. All are within a mile or less of St. Pius V.
Holy Rosary School
180 Bradhurst Avenue
Originally slated for closure in 2005, Holy Rosary's appeal and corrective action plan were accepted by the Archdiocese, which gave the school three years to accomplish its goals. The school's enrollment is now at only 117 students. A nearby school, St. Theresa's in Briarcliff Manor is widely recognized both for academic excellence and a highly competitive athletic program. Monsignor James Vaughey, the pastor of St. Theresa's, said that school "is poised to welcome as many students from Holy Rosary as there is room to accept and to ease their transition as much as possible."
Other conveniently located schools include Our Lady of Mount Carmel School [59 East Main Street, Elmsford NY 10523]; Holy Name of Jesus School [2 Broadway, Valhalla, NY 10595]; Sacred Heart School [59 Wilson Street, Hartsdale, NY 10927] Our Lady of Sorrows School [888 Mamaroneck Avenue, White Plains, NY 10605].
16 North Broadway
Irvington-on-Hudson, NY10533
Nearby Catholic Schools: Transfiguration School [40 Prospect Avenue, Tarrytown, NY 10591]; St Anthony's School [1395 Nepperhan Avenue, Yonkers, NY 10703]; Our Lady of Fatima School [963 Scarsdale Road, Scarsdale, NY 10583]
St. Lawrence O'Toole School
11 Eastview Avenue
Only 131 students were enrolled in St. Lawrence this year and pre-registration for the year starting in September 2008 is approximately 30 students.
Nearby Catholic Schools: St. John the Evangelist [239 East Lake Boulevard, Mahopac, NY 10541]; St. James the Apostle [12 Gleneida Avenue, Carmel, NY 10512]
Immaculate Conception School
Stony Point, NY 10980
The school enrollment has dropped by nearly 70 students since 2004 and now totals 121 students. The increased enrollment at nearby St. Gregory Barbarigo School [29 Cinder Road, Garnerville, NY 10923] offers a vibrant learning community to transferring students. Another neighboring school is St. Peter's School in Haverstraw [21 Ridge Street, 10927], which was recently featured in the Cardinal's Appeal video for its success at serving a multi-cultural community.
517 Western Highway
Blauvelt, NY 10913
While the school will close at the end of this school year, tentative plans include the development of a full-service Early Childhood Center at the site. The school already has 80 children in its preschool program. This pre-K population comprises approximately half of the school's current enrollment of 178.
Nearby Catholic Schools: St. Margaret's School [33 North Magnolia Street, Pearl River, NY 10965]; St. Paul's School [365 Kings Highway, Valley Cottage, NY 10989]
School Mergers:
History, institutional culture, shared activities, as well as proximity were some of the factors considered by the Archdiocese when identifying schools to be merged into new, larger schools.
St. Frances of Rome School 4321 Barnes Avenue, Bronx, NY 10466 and
St. Anthony School 4520 Matilda Avenue, Bronx, NY 10470
The new school will be located at St. Anthony's newer facility, which has both a spacious gym and cafeteria. Neither was available at St. Frances School. This merger has been considered in the past because of such linkages as the sharing of a school chaplain, staff familiarity and school proximity. The Archdiocese is currently building a model Early Childhood Learning Center at this site.
Holy Rosary School,21-23 Central Avenue, Port Chester, NY 10573 and
Corpus Christi School 135 South Regent Street, Port Chester, NY 10573]
Both schools are in Port Chester. Both parishes are served by the Salesians of Don Bosco, an Order historically dedicated to serving young people. Both schools already share a number of activities including a summer camp program and seasonal celebrations. The new school will be located at Corpus Christi School.

Disney Parks' Upcoming BEAUTY AND THE BEAST Ride Looks Crazy Advanced
by Amy Ratcliffe
Dec 8 2018 • 2:00 PM
Disney has adapted its animated Beauty and the Beast into a few different forms since it opened in 1991. The film has been turned into a Broadway musical, stage shows for Disney Parks and the Disney Cruise Line, and a live-action movie. And in a couple of years, Tokyo Disneyland guests will be able to experience the movie in an entirely new way when the Enchanted Tale of Beauty and the Beast attraction opens.The ride, the first ever Beauty and the Beast ride through technology, will take audiences through the movie in vehicles that look like Mrs. Potts' teacups. The teacups "dance" to the iconic music in the most memorable scenes from the movie; they're meant to feel like they're alive. You can get a peek at the teacups in the below video along with what looks to be the truly standout part of the attraction: the audio-animatronic figures. Do you see Belle nodding along to "Be Our Guest?" It's like she's real–as real as an animated character can be. Animatronic figures have a come a long way since the first Disney park, Disneyland, opened in 1955. Belle, Beast, and Philippe were created digitally at Walt Disney Animation Studios, and then Imagineering took those designs and used fairy dust to bring them to life. Some of those artists at the Animation Studios even worked on the movie in 1991. Enchanted Tale of Beauty and the Beast is set to come to Tokyo Disneyland in spring 2020.

I have said it before, and I will say it again when it comes to home decor 'the devil is in the detail'. When decorating you need to pay attention to every element of the room, if you want to stand any chance of achieving the overall look you want. When it comes to home design, doors are something that people tend to ignore when they redecorate a room. I am not sure exactly why that is. Perhaps, they mean to replace them, but simply run out of money, or just forget about the doors when they are planning their new room.
What I do know, is that a shoddy door that does not fit in with the rest of the decor can completely ruin the overall look and feel of a room. Doors are important. The fact that you have to use them every time you enter or leave a room means that they are not a feature that you can ignore.
The first consideration is the style of the door. It needs to fit in with what you are planning. For example, for a minimalist style room a glass door or one with just two or three panels will clearly work much better than an elaborate colonial style door would.
Working out which door design goes with what style of room is far easier than you think. Next time you see a picture of a room that you like, take the time to look at the style of interior door that was used. If you do this regularly, you will soon get a feel for what works and what does not.
However, it is important not to think only about looks. It is important to bear in mind why you need doors.
They are there to keep the noise out, to give you privacy, and help you to separate each area of the home. You need to make sure that the doors you buy are of sufficiently good quality to do this. It is rarely a good idea to simply go out and buy the cheapest ones you can find. If you do this, you will surely regret doing so.
You also need to think about safety when buying doors. If you have young children, or someone who is not steady on their feet living in your home, installing full glass doors is usually not a good idea. There is too big a risk that they could trip and end up putting their hand through the glass. Unfortunately, this type of accident happens on a regular basis. Sometimes people die because of the injuries they sustain.
If you have the cash, it is always worth spending a bit more and installing fire doors in your home. This no longer means having to buy ugly utilitarian doors like the ones you find in public buildings. Over the past decade, a growth in demand means that you can now easily buy beautiful looking fire doors for your home.

In a recent Birmingham meetup we had a great conversation around this.. One of the things that came out of the discussion was that people in the corporate world actually face a set of challenges that largely come from over-resourcing. If you think about it, there is a pattern, a path that many have already walked. However, the intrapreneur needs to reject this path. Why? Well, because if they walk it, they just fall into the same trap as everyone else in their organisation. They are unlikely to change the outcome by doing what everyone else has done before. If a project manager, a product manager, a DBA, a front-end developer, a back-end developer, a tester, a designer, a UX specialist etc. etc. all get hired straight off, this is fishy to me. Someone is hiring the Rolls Royce Team for a Fiat Punto job. However, if the smallest possible team is hired and later skills are begged, borrowed or stolen then this is the equivalent to acting more like an entrepreneur would. Sorry… I will amend that. This is tantamount to acting like an entrepreneur should.
However, entrepreneurs are only human. Just like everyone else. People like people. Entrepreneurs don't set up businesses to sit around by themselves. They want a team around them. In fact having met and talked to well over 100 of my fellow business owners over the years.. I'd even go so far as saying they NEED them. So even entrepreneurs, with their tight budgets, cash flow constraints etc. etc. are prone to a little 'pushing the boat out' when it comes to hiring people.
But what about Intrapreneurs? Well, I have to confess here that I haven't ever been an intrapreneur but I have worked alongside many people tasked with the job of making something work. Generally, something other people have failed at. Although they all had the best of intentions I can think of more than a one or two who decided to hire based on the standard template. And who would blame them? Entrepreneurs are constrained by the fact they HAVE NO MONEY. Much of the time it hits their own pocket! Yet they still OVER HIRE!! I have done this. Many times. It does not end well.
So who can blame the intrapreneurs for acting in the exact same way? The only difference being that they have more money to waste.
Hence, the actions of an intrapreneur must be more measured, more calculated. Their resistance to following the status quo must be second to none. They must have the grit to be able to deliver on a shoestring with all the risks involved.
They are putting themselves in the line of fire by acting in the best interests of the organisation. WOW.
To me, it kind of feels like an intrapreneur needs to be way more disciplined, way more entrepreneurial, than the entrepreneur ever was.

Q: What file extention to use for c++ source code I wrote some code in notepad but it is written in c++. I've compiled and ran the code online via some available websites and the output is as expected. Now I'd like to save it as a c++ file but not sure what extension to use. I've done some research online and found out that there are so many extensions for c++ (unlike java where the only type I've encountered was .java).
What is the proper file extension to use?

A: I would strongly suggest using .cpp. There are other options, for example .cc, .cxx, but .cpp is by far the most commonly used. Particularly do not use .C (uppercase C), as source file names should never be case-sensitive if you are remotely interested in portability between platforms. For header files, use either .h or .hpp.

A: This is a matter of opinion and convention more than anything else. Boost for example uses .cpp for implementation files and .hpp for header files, but I've seen .cc, .cxx, .c++ and .C used in the wild. The latter two are probably a bad idea for portable code however (not all file systems can represent a + symbol, and on case-insensitive filesystems .C will look like a C file).
The closest thing to "official rules" is probably the C++ Core Guidelines, which suggest .cpp for implementation files and .h for header files

A: *.cpp - for code
*.h - for header

Norris, Pippa, ed. Public Sentinel: News Media and the Governance Agenda. World Bank, 2010.
Within the broad context of the major issues facing the international development community, Public Sentinel: News Media & Governance Reform focuses on the performance of the news media as an institution in addressing the challenges of governance. The book seeks to consider three related issues: What ideal roles should media systems play to strengthen democratic governance and thus bolster human development? Under what conditions do media systems actually succeed or fail to fulfill these objectives? What policy interventions work most effectively to close the substantial gap which exists between the democratic promise and performance of the news media as an institution?do media systems actually succeed or fail to fulfill these objectives? Third, a strategic approach asks: What policy interventions work most effectively to close the substantial gap that exists between the democratic promise and performance of the news media as an institution?


The Punjab Deputy Chief Minister, S. Sukhbir Singh Badal has condemned Delhi Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Convenor Arvind Kejriwal for his foolish attempt to clean the already cleaned utensils at Sri Darbar Sahib, Amritsar during langar sewa. He said that the AAP leaders are completely ignorant about the religious norms and are a bunch of atheists which has no respect for any religion. Branding kejriwal as a past master in dramatics, S. Badal said that the AAP convenor is eyeing power in the state by misleading the people.Interacting with the media-persons here today on the occasion of launching of new atta-dal scheme in the state, the Deputy Chief Minister said that Arvind Kejriwal had earlier also hurt the religious sentiments of the world Punjabi diaspora especially the Sikh community by demolishing 'Piau Sahib' at Gurudwara Sri Sisganj Sahib in Delhi and pasting the AAP symbol 'broom' on the photograph of Sri Durbar Sahib on a frivolous youth manifesto of AAP.Earlier, addressing a gathering, the Deputy Chief Minister while lambasting AAP said that Arvind Kejriwal is a habitual liar who has not lived up to even a single promise he made to the electorate before entering politics.
He further disclosed that the AAP MLA's in Delhi are receiving the heftiest pay perks in the country whereas instead of ushering in development, the AAP government has ruined Delhi.Taking on PPCC Chief Captain Amarinder Singh, the Deputy Chief Minister said that during its 5 year rule in Punjab, the congress didn't undertook even a single development measure. Commenting further on the state of affairs in Congress, S. Badal said that the situation has come to such a pass that many congress leaders are now contemplating deserting the sinking ship of the party because the Punjabi people have given a big thumbs down to congress.Touching the plank of development, he said that Punjab has witnessed rapid development only with the government formed under the leadership of S. Parkash Singh Badal. Throwing light on the development measures undertaken by the SAD-BJP Government during the previous 9 years, S. Badal said that the power, roads and infrastructural sectors have seen record progress and various welfare initiatives like- atta-dal scheme, free power, health insurance cards, free power worth 200 units to every SC household, free distribution of cycles to the girl students have raised the standard of living in the state to a considerable extent.
Terming the SAD-BJP government as the real & genuine representative of the people of Punjab, he appealed to the people to let the chain of prosperity and progress undisturbed by voting again for the SAD-BJP alliance in the 2017 assembly polls. He further elaborated that now, the center has BJP led and state has SAD-BJP alliance government which is proving handy in scripting new success stories with every passing day.Making an important announcement, S. Badal said that soon a new express road from New Delhi-Amritsar via Barnala-Moga would firmly establish Barnala including Malwa as the developmental hub.On the occasion, he commenced new atta-dal scheme and distributed blue cards to the beneficiaries and informed that 7 lakh more beneficiary families are being brought under the ambit of the scheme whereas 28 lakh families are already availing the benefits under the scheme. With this, the total number of beneficiaries under the scheme would reach 1.41 crore equivalent to half of the state's population.Among others present on the occasion were Advisor to the Deputy Chief Minister, Manjinder Singh Sirsa, Chairman District Planning Committee Rupinder Singh Sandhu, Vice-Chairman PEDA Kulwant Singh Kanta, District President of SAD (Urban) Sanjiv Shourie, District President of SAD (Rural) Paramjit Singh Khalsa, District President BJP Gurmeet Singh Bawa and other senior SAD-BJP leaders.

In any scientific enquiry there are no such things as final solutions. Yet, in this paper, I aim to explain the problems of the size changes of some basic measure units on inertial frames of referenc when in relative motion. It was demonstrated that a normal clock's rate of ticking duration becomes 'slower' when placed on a "faster" inertial frame of relative motion. Equally the mass of a body becomes larger with increased kinetic motion. Thus, the same clock runs slower when at rest on the moving Earth frame relative to the gravitational rest frame of the Sun. Similarly, the same pendulum clock runs slower when in motion (on board a moving train) and its arm must be physically shortened such that both clocks are synchronized to read a universal 'common time clock system' (CTCS) on both frames. The effect of shortening the arm's length compensate for the increase to the bob mass size due to gained kinetic energy of motion and the clocks' ticks durations become of the same length on both frames. An arbitray universality of a natural cosmic time flow rate is thus established on both frames as it is important for starting common dating and calculating the relative total energy content of a material body.
Consider an orbiting electron as a convenient timing device. Each time it completes an orbit it takes say, te duration of time while on the rest frame. However, the same electron gains inertia (mass) when transported to a faster moving frame. Since the force driving the electron is constant, the acceleration becomes reduced because of the added inertia and the time te' it takes the electron to complete an orbit is now longer. Therefore, this atom clock system similarly runs slower.
In his theory of super relativity, Albert Einstein, an exceptionally gifted theoretical physicist, introduced some strange hypotheses which contradict the prevailing common sense view of reality and our human concept of time and space. It included the dramatic myth of the twin paradox which attracted and appealed to the general public and the fertile wild imagination of those who seek strange and extra terrestrial solutions. The issue is that of the same clock slowing down when transferred to a faster moving inertial reference frames. Instead of searching for a physical cause such that caused by the mass of a body increasing in size with motion and the consequential changes to the elements of Newtonian force such as acceleration that drive the clocks pointers or the electrons in orbit.
As I have stated in the paper, keeping to the same measure units: the strength size of a force remains constant irrespective of changes to the frame motion and the Newtonian parametric units of the force. Since the inertia of a body (mass) increases naturally with motion, because of gained kinetic energy, other parameters of the elements of force change accordingly. We have two choices: employ the same clock on the moving frame which is now slower ticking or else keep to a synchronized common clocks system on both frames.
Case A=With the slowing Lorentz's local clock, because of the change to the size of mass, both the length and duration of the pointers change accordingly. Thus on the rest reference frame Force=mo r o / to2 while on the moving frame F=mvrv /tv^2. Since the tick becomes a longer duration , tv = to /(1-v^2/c^2)1/2 and as mv=/ mo /(1-v^2/c^2)^1/2 therefore rv =ro /(1-v^2/c^2)^1/2 and the meter rod should be transformed to be longer. This is not the case with STR which stipulate the meter is shorter.


A contract notice worth £7bn has been issued by Highways England today which looks to appoint six partners in the creation of its Smart Motorway Programme Alliance (SMP Alliance) over a 10-year period.
Under the proposal, Highways England aim to drive innovation and efficiency through increased standardisation and would involve the employment of three tier one contractors, two digitally enabled designers and a new production management specialist as part of a three-stage process covering design, off-site production and logistics, and on-site assembly.
The alliance will develop, design, and build multiple road schemes under a single contract. It represents a new procurement model for the roads body to deliver its entire smart motorways programme using a production line approach.
Highways England say the work will increase lane capacity on all parts of the strategic road network through embedding technology and converting hard shoulders to all-lane running.
Furthermore, where required, the SMP Alliance will also deliver associated works to co-ordinate the wider programme of works. The alliance may also support Highways England to deliver the wider autonomous and connected vehicles road implementation strategy.
The organisation announced back in January that it would be engaging with its supply chain to support the development of a new procurement model to deliver for Smart Motorways. The thinking behind the change is said to provide an incentive model which provides confidence in the contractual programme budget, and provides additional opportunity for reward.

She-Monkeys
No previous knowledge of equestrian gymnastics is required to enjoy Lisa Aschan's impressive feature debut, She-Monkeys. Sport is the backdrop for the simmering rivalry and powerful attraction between Swedish teenagers Emma (Mathilda Paradeiser) and Cassandra (Linda Molin). But this ambiguous relationship would probably have played out to equally damaging effect in a less macho arena like ballet or acting.
The solemn Emma lives with her single dad Ivan (Sergej Merkusjev) and seven-year-old sister Sara (Isabella Lindquist). After a successful try-out for the equestrian vaulting team, Emma becomes best friends with Cassandra, a haughty blonde beauty who initially seems like the alpha female of the bunch. But Cassandra's role as athletic coach and mentor ("I can teach anyone anything") is merely a prelude to intimacy, jealousy and revenge.
When I first saw She-Monkeys at last year's BFI London Film Festival I was impressed with the pace, structure and mood of this story, which escalates from adolescent drama to psychological thriller. Admittedly, co-writers Aschan and Josefine Adolfsson don't give too much away here in terms of back story. We never find out anything about Cassandra's home life or what happened to Emma's absent mother. (Did she die or just run off to pursue a career in equestrian vaulting?)
Aschan, who was assistant director on The Killing (Forbrydelsen), has mentioned westerns as an inspiration for this film. I found the shots of tumbleweed a bit incongruous, but the girls do seem to be on a collision course from the moment Cassandra pushes Emma off a high diving board, leaving her with a bloody nose. Despite a giggly declaration of love and an attempted seduction, the emphasis here seems to be not on sexual experimentation but on gaining control.
That theme is present from the opening scenes, in which Emma uses a "clicker" to train the family dog. The precocious Sara also wields it as she attempts to lure her older cousin Sebastian to her bedroom, after posing in her new leopard-print bikini. Ivan's struggles to deal with Sara's burgeoning sexuality form the humorous but highly provocative subplot of this film. This isn't a story about child abuse, but the bedroom scenes involving Sara, her dad and (later) Sebastian are hard to watch.
Lindquist is extraordinary as the cherubic temptress who voices her need for "scratching" (on the arm and belly) without fear or self-consciousness. It's made very clear that the child is manipulating the adults here, but how do they protect her (and themselves) without destroying her innocence? That dilemma is posed even more starkly at the swimming pool, where Sara's topless bathing attire is deemed inappropriate for adult eyes.
She-Monkeys has been compared with Single White Female and the more recent Black Swan, though the thriller element is much more understated here and no one gets on the wrong end of a stiletto. For me it's more reminiscent of Céline Sciamma's Water Lilies in the way it depicts the shifting power balance between Emma and Cassandra. The script doesn't give Molin much to work with, but she does enough to suggest that Cassandra's eventual capitulation is grounded in genuine vulnerability and affection for Emma. As the taciturn Emma, Mathilda Paradeiser keeps her feelings tightly reined most of the time. But you see the adolescent turmoil in her impatience with Sara and the scene where she impulsively hugs her dad.
Despite its Scandinavian setting and western trappings, She-Monkeys reflects themes that will be familiar to all mixed-up teenagers — gay, straight, sporty or academic. Responding to Cassandra's question about what she really wants, Emma's enigmatic reply is: "I want to be like I was before."
She-Monkeys is released in UK cinemas by Peccadillo Pictures on Friday 18 May

I'm Gonna Wash That Year Right Outta My Hair: The Top 10 Albums of 2017
December 8, 2017 December 12, 2017 / dugoutdiscs
With buzz phrases like "tiki torch Nazis," "dotard," and "allegations of sexual misconduct," 2017 certainly won't be remembered as one of the most commendable chapters in human history. When the news turned ugly—and frankly, when was it not? — I sought solace in soothing sounds. (Apologies for th-pitting there.) Only three of my picks for the 10 best albums of the year qualify as pulse-raisers. The rest slot smoothly into a category that my friend Kendall has disdainfully dubbed "music you can bathe to." What can I say? Calgon, take me away*… far, far away from the grimy headlines of recent months. And here's to a more rockin' 2018. Come back, Tom Petty. We need you.
(*Google it, Millennials!)
10: Grizzly Bear — Painted Ruins
Critics have called this brainy Brooklyn combo's latest album, its first after an extended hiatus, "elegantly layered" and "immersive." Non-fans might interpret those accolades as code for "boring." And to be honest, it took five or six listens for Painted Ruins to click with me as a whole. As usual, the band eschews easy hooks in favour of complex song structures with protean melodies, although the moderately propulsive "Mourning Sound" is one of its most accessible compositions yet. And while the 11 tracks here do allow for the occasional burst of drama, such as the emphatic organ flourishes on "Aquarian," the overall tone of the album is restrained. Patient listeners will be drawn in by the always-stellar harmonies, virtuoso playing—Daniel Rossen's guitar work is the standout—and off-kilter lyrics. (The opener, "Wasted Acres," is a playful ode to a DRX-250 motorcycle.) It's no party record, to be sure. But if you don't mind the wait, Painted Ruins will eventually reveal its quiet beauty.
[Blogger's note: I'll post each of my Top 10 picks in succession over the next few weeks, or possibly several weeks, depending on the severity of my winter laziness.]

Marlon Williams – "Nobody Gets What They Want Anymore" (The New Zealand singer-songwriter returns with his sophomore album, Make Way For Love, out today on Dead Oceans. The stunning new album was recorded with producer Noah Georgeson and his backing band, The Yarra Benders and takes Williams further away from his country-leaning folk sound to a more cinematic tremolo-heavy and reverb-rich retro-minded rock sound that allows for his distinct, Roy Orbison-like crooning to shine. Check out his aching, lonesome duet with gothic-folk singer Aldous Harding here.) https://marlonwilliams.bandcamp.com/album/make-way-for-love

Loma – "Black Willow" (Loma is the new collaborative project between Jonathan Meiburg of Shearwater and Emily Cross and Dan Duszynski of Cross Record. Together, they create a beautiful, subtly psychedelic brand of dream-pop that is both haunting and hypnotic, on their self-titled debut album out today on Sub Pop. Listen to the closing cut, "Black Willow" here, as Emily and Jonathan's voices coalesce into a cloud-scraping choir along with twinkling piano, warped synths and an insistent beat for the perfect introduction.) https://www.subpop.com/artists/loma

I'm With Her – "Game To Lose" (I'm With Her is moniker for the new collaborative band featuring Americana superstars Sara Watkins, Sarah Jarosz, and Aoife O'Donovan. The trio's debut album, See You Around, is out today on Rounder Records. Each singer-songwriter/multi-instrumentalist takes their turn to lead on the timeless-sounding songs that combine fluttering bluegrass rhythms and irresistible folk-pop melodies but the heart-stopping highlight is when they combine their voices into close-knit harmonies. Hear for yourself with the standout single below.) https://imwithherband.com/

Miracle – "Light Mind" (Out today on Relapse Records is, The Strife Of Love In A Dream, the sophomore album from the synth-pop duo consisting of Zombi's Steve Moore and prolific art-rock vocalist/multi-instrumentalist Daniel O'Sullivan along with special guest drummer A.E. Paterra of Zombi, Majeure and Maserati. Dark, moody and propulsive, the duo has created an album that is futuristic yet dripping with 80's nostalgia; sounding like a darker version of early Depeche Mode but broadcast from a parallel universe.) https://miracle.bandcamp.com/album/the-strife-of-love-in-a-dream

Steven Small – Mexico City Blues & Soviet Modernism
November 8, 2016 November 16, 2016 / JazzLocal32.com
Every time an article appeared in the late twentieth century proclaiming the death of Modernism, another appeared shortly after; pointing out, rightly, that profound echoes of the movement will linger and intrigue a while yet. Perhaps because of when I was born, (immediately after the second war), this movement fascinates me and will until my last breath. It was a profound moment in the human journey when the hegemony of historical artistic values were challenged, discarded. Schoenberg, Coltrane, Brubeck, Riley, Colman, Matisse, Picasso, Miro. Pollock, Rothko, Eliot, Pound, Kerouac, and even Freud are defined by this impulse to move free from the received wisdom of history.
Those names and others were significant among the game-changing modernists. The paradox is, that once defined, accepted, the movement they arose from became part of conventional history. The energies arising from the Modernist impulse were profound and so powerful that counter-revolutions are endlessly trying to reset the clock – to recapture late 19th century values, a time when empires and financially powerful men determined our world view (the Trump, Brexit phenomena). Stephen Small is a wonderful pianist but he is much more than that. He conjures up musical projects that catch people unawares; original projects, affording us a viewpoint on life and art that we would not experience otherwise. The concept behind the first outing of the Mexico City Blues band was to look at, examine the Jazz of 1957, fusing it with the Beat poems of Jack Kerouac (Kerouac wrote Mexico City Blues in that year – see earlier post). This was in part a re-imagining, but also a fresh look through post millennial eyes. When Stephen Small takes on a project he brings to it an immense musical knowledge, but more importantly an eye for the unusual, for quirky detail (no artist, musician, writer or poet worth their salt can succeed without this). When artists do their job well they show us the world afresh.
Mexico City Blues 2016, unexpectedly took us into the heart of Eastern Bloc Europe during the immediate post-war era. What a marvellous idea and what extraordinary music we heard. By coincidence, just before this gig, I was travelling through the former Eastern Bloc and I gained a strong sense of the wonderful music existing there – a music largely obscured from the anglo-centric view, created in an era of strong disapproval and inside hermetically sealed borders. A small cadre of Poles, East Germans, Czechs, Romanians and Russians listened to Jazz when they could. Forbidden LP's circulated, Radio America broadcasts were devoured and later on there were a handful of US State Department Goodwill Tours (aka propaganda). Small pointed out something important.
The Jazz that these musicians created, recorded, while referencing the American or Scandinavian music was also very much their own. They hated being told that Jazz was forbidden by the philistine authorities, but they were also suspicious of swallowing the US State Department line. Jazz is and should be by its very nature suspicious of any party line. There is a little Evans, Ellington and Brubeck in their music but what defines these artists is an uncompromising originality. I am a longtime time fan of Polish Jazz, as it is interestingly melodic and distinctive. The most important thing I learned while in Poland was that the ethnic Poles did not rebel against Russia out of any yearning for American capitalism, nor did they despise socialism. They just wanted the jackboots of Russia and Germany off their neck. Nations and art forms are happiest when finding their own way in their own time. Hearing this music is to glimpse the soul of an artistically suppressed people, finding hidden pathways towards the light.
The gig traversed the compositions of four 1950's to 60's era Eastern Bloc musicians and paid tribute to the experimental free improvised music of Russia. There was a distinct flavour to all of the pieces. They were lush without over ornamentation, marvellously inventive, moody and original (perhaps tinged with the dark romanticism of Slavonic literature). After hearing these composers, my interest is piqued enough to want to lift this corner of the Iron Curtin further.
The artist featured most was the amazing Krzysztof Komeda, a wonderful composer and interesting pianist whose dark and moody compositions are forever associated with Roman Polanski movies; a match made in heaven. Anyone who follows the Polish trumpeter Tomasz Stanko will have heard Komeda often (Stanko was in many of the Komeda bands). If you saw Polanski's 'Knife in the water', 'Rosemary's Baby' or 'The Fearless Vampire Killers' you have absorbed his music without realising it. 'Astigmatic' Komeda's greatest album, is highly regarded to this day. It signals the first significant shift away from American Jazz sensibilities, establishing a new and predominantly European Jazz aesthetic. I once saw Polanski interviewed about his early movies and he spoke passionately about Komeda and his music. The Komeda compositions we heard were the achingly beautiful 'Ballad for Bernt' and 'Crazy Girl' (both from 'Knife in the Water').
First up was a solo piece, 'Suite for Jazz Orchestra' by the East German composer Pavel Blatny. Then Bassist Jo Shum joined Small for two Komeda numbers – following that the duo played 'Gral' by Ludwig Petrovsky (another East German). The last piece in the first set was a ballad by Murad Kazhlaev (an Azerbaijani). I have not seen Shum perform for some time but she was magical – her touch and instinctive feel for this interesting music adding deep resonance. The second set was free improvised music in the tradition of, and honouring the all but forgotten experimental improvisers of 1960's Russia. For this set Small was joined by Dave Chechelashvili on modular synthesiser. As Small carved out motifs and themes, developing them and exploring the possibilities, Chechelashvili shaped the sound. Small's Korg keyboard was split and connected with the modular synth; as patch cords were adjusted and knobs tweaked, we heard a music that you don't expect from Communist Russia. Evidently and surprisingly, this was tolerated because it was perceived as artistic exploration. It was hard not to think of Glass, Reich or Riley and wonder at this parallel development.

What Stroller Did We Use For Our Three Kids?
Strollers have come a long in terms of functionality, features and safety. At the time, when we had our daughter, there was only one stroller that came to mind and everything felt like it was an imitation. Not that imitation was bad, but how you use the stroller and the way things were located and set up were important for us. It was important especially when you know you are using this for a long time and subconsciously we also knew we were going to have more than one child down the road. How many? Two, three? We just don't know at the time, but we knew that expandability was a big factor when shopping for a stroller. The OEM accessories are well thought out and intuitive. Dare I say the iPhone of strollers, it is designed well and not to the point where the stroller becomes strictly an art piece but had the user in mind. The mom. You just pick it up and go. With this comes weight, you can turn and navigate the stroller with one pinky finger. And not having to look at a manual was a plus. We didn't want any complications or fuss with anything. Time was important and we wanted something highly functional and easy to use in a snap.
We wanted a stroller that was set up in tandem, rather than having two kids sit side by side. It is a stroller that's not small, but not the largest either. It has nicely padded seats, different fabric colours to choose from and leather wrapped around the handlebars. It offers a smooth ride, comfort around the uneven pavement and minimal effort for acceleration, err I mean minimal effort while walking. Yes, I'm talking about a stroller here. It grows with your child through the different stages, starting with the bassinet and growing with your family with every new addition up to three. And yes, we used it fully when we became a family of five. With all three at once. Ellie on the PiggyBack skateboard attachment, Caleb on the Rumble seat and Abel in the infant seat. Still effortless to push around the kids in, along with an extra large basket for all the baby gears needed for the day.
If we were to go back, hands down this would be the stroller to choose again and again. Every time new parents walk through our studio, when it's the Uppababy Vista and every time, our parents love it and express how intuitive it is to use. Form and function. As a disclaimer, we are in no way affiliated, endorsed or paid by anyone for this. We truly believe in this product even though our kids have outgrown this gadget or tool if you will, it got us from A to B with ease, we highly recommend this to our parents to be, it is that good. It helped us in every way, tantrums aside, you're on your own. 😉

The Piedmont Environmental Council has some experience dealing with Dominion and transmission line proposals through our region. In 2006 and 2008, utilities proposed two unnecessary high-voltage transmission lines that would connect to the oldest and dirtiest coal-fired generation in the United States. Learn more about the TrAIL line (approved and built) and the PATH line (turned down). More recently, a series of projects has been proposed, each with its own set of details and impacts.
Can we save the climate without building new energy infrastructure on conservation lands across America? PEC answers yes--in this article for the Fall 2009 Land Trust Alliance magazine.
In 2009, PEC President Chris Miller was one of twelve experts from across the country summoned to testify before a House of Representatives subcommittee at a hearing entitled "The Future of the Grid: Proposals for Reforming National Transmission Policy."
Dominion has filed an application with the State Corporation Commission (SCC) seeking to replace the existing 115-kV line running from Gordonsville to Remington with a 230-kV line. The current 52 ft wooden "H" poles would be replaced with larger steel monopoles, at approximately 103-107 ft. This change in structure and height would have a major impact on the landscape and the numerous historic and scenic resources within the immediate area.
Dominion and Northern Virginia Electric Cooperative (NOVEC) are pursuing a new 230kV transmission line through Prince William County and Fauquier, stating current or future reliability issues.
TrAIL is a 500-kV transmission line that was proposed by Dominion and Allegheny Power in 2007 and approved to be built in 2008. The line runs from southwest Pennsylvania, through West Virginia, ultimately terminating in Loudoun County, Virginia.
The PATH 765-kV transmission line was a partnership between American Electric Power and Allegheny Power. The line would have started near the Amos coal plant in West Virginia, traveling northeast through parts of Maryland and Virginia.


We have numerous IKEA shelves and drawers - Malm, Tarva, Kallax and Billy - and they all feature on the recent list of furniture published by IKEA that MUST BE FIXED TO THE WALL. But I have a confession. As soon as I finish assembling any Ikea flat pack the last thing on my mind is the extra 'SECURE IT' step posted at the very end of some of the instruction leaflets. "I'll do it later" I think to myself. To this day NONE of our IKEA units are fixed to the wall. "I'll do it later" does't work, you get distracted, life happens and then you forget - at least I do.
But it's recently come to my attention how irresponsible my thinking is; especially after I heard about the deaths of six children in America and Canada, caused by Ikea drawers tipping over - two of these occurred in the last year and involved a Malm chest of drawers falling onto young children.
The Malm series - has been recalled in America and Canada and in all other countries IKEA wants to ensure that everyone has these units securely anchored to the wall. IF NOT SECURED PROPERLY these units can cause serious injury - especially to young children - and even death.
Am I being realistic when I say "I'll do it later" - NO. Is it irresponsible of me to skip this step - ABSOLUTELY. In the meantime, I have been sent numerous emails from my Mum about this. Mum's are great for highlighting danger! She knows my boys love to explore, but climbing on these shelves and drawers is a serious safety hazard especially for young children.
I wrote this post because I wanted to highlight how easy it can be for children to be seriously injured, or worse, when you think - like I did - "I'll do it later".
If you need a replacement restraint kit to secure your chest of drawers, you can call us on 01 541 3302 to order one free of charge. Alternatively, click below to order one online.

Any area rug when made as per the custom pattern, may be size, shape, colour or so, these are termed as CUSTOM MADE AREA RUGS. These area rugs are mostly handmade.
This term is mix of both the above terms. Any area rug when specially made in any size, may be in the design offered by designer it is termed as CUSTOM SIZED AREA RUGS. Here the main concern is that the size of the rugs shall be of the client. The construction and possibility of these comes better in handmade.
Any area rug being customised is CUSTOM DESIGN AREA RUG. The issue of size (whether it has to be bigger or smaller), the design pattern (whether contemporary or modern or traditional or abstract), and the colours (bright, earthy, soft) all these composite makes any rug a CUSTOM DESIGN AREA RUG.

ateneul 360
The Romanian Athenaeum (Romanian: Ateneul Român) is a concert hall in the center of Bucharest, Romania and a landmark of the Romanian capital city. Opened in 1888, the ornate, domed, circular building is the city's main concert hall and home of the "George Enescu" Philharmonic and of the George Enescu annual international music festival.

How to make sphere panorams
The first step in making sphere panorams is the decision which equipment to use taking them. I choosed the Samsung Gear 360 (version 2016), which is a standalone solution combining in one small ball cage two fisheye optics (front and rear) projecting on two CMOS sensors ( 3888px x 3888px - ca. 15 MPx each), in which way is taken one complete 360 degrees full sphere every time you press the release button.
Like most modern digital cameras the gear 360 offers the making of videos too, but then to have something like a remote control and screen you better use it together with one of the recommended smart phones, and so it can't be called a standalone any more. To me it is, because I'm not interested in making movies.
This combination of a smart phone and the gear 360 is a convenient way too for those people who do intend with their panorams nothing else but to post them immediately in their favourite social media account: The gear-360-app not only transfers the picture data via wifi to the smartphone but will transform this data to the equirectangular format which is something like the standard to be understood e.g. by facebook. During this transformation process the image size is reduced enormously, but the result is all what is needed by fb.
By the way: It's just 2 years, since facebook presented to it's users the possibility of uploading panorams, in a very convenient way without any manipulations of their web browser - not just another plugin! In that manner panorams found more public interest. And so it was just a question of time until there was presented a plugin-free solution to embed panos in your own website. To me this happened with Pannellum, the open panoramaviewer, which is used in this website


(July 18, 2013, Boca Raton, FL & Cleveland, OH) – A just-published report, co-authored by the medical leadership of Cleveland HeartLab (CHL) and MDVIP for the peer-reviewed journal Future Cardiology (July 2013), clearly demonstrates the utility of a multimarker approach to determine cardiovascular risk. The data that was reviewed came from over 95,000 MDVIP patients who received an annual wellness panel that contains multiple biomarkers that go beyond basic lipid tests. As part of a comprehensive approach to wellness and prevention, MDVIP-affiliated physicians use this advanced testing to drive early detection and highly personalized care.
The new report analyzing one of the largest patient screening data sets validates a significant difference between a multimarker approach, including CHL's inflammation testing, versus conventional lipid-only testing. The MDVIP biomarker wellness panel proved to be a highly effective tool in risk prediction. This distinction is vitally important due to the fact that at least 50% of patients who present with acute myocardial infarction (heart attack) have "normal" or treated cholesterol levels.
Based on a lipid-only wellness panel, approximately 30% of patients presented as being at risk.
Based on a multimarker panel, 70% of patients were found to be at risk, with 40% having more than one marker positive.
Additionally, the report went on to compare findings reflected in data on higher acuity markers: Lp-PLA2 and MPO. Independent studies have demonstrated that each of these biomarkers indicates the presence of increased risk for cardiovascular events based on increased risk for plaque vulnerability.
In the additional set, results of Lp-PLA2 and MPO testing of 2,700 patients from executive health and preventive cardiology clinics highlighted the importance of a multimarker strategy to identify risk. The biomarkers analyzed in the report show that approximately 6% of the patients had increased risk (due to an elevated MPO), while 5% of the patients were at risk (due to an elevated Lp-PLA2). However, in this asymptomatic outpatient population only 0.2% showed elevated levels for both markers.
"As we note in the paper, independent of whether these inflammatory pathways are involved in disease progression, by understanding the physiology these markers reflect when elevated, we can garner a deeper understanding of individual patient risk for cardiovascular events and treatment effects through a multimarker approach without redundancy in the case of MPO and Lp-PLA2," said Dr. Penn. "If one were to take a single marker approach, it would suggest that one is comfortable with assessing only one side of the coin or only half of the patient's potential for risk," stated Dr. Penn.
The multimarker screening panel for the report in the Future Cardiology article, "Multimarker Approach for Identifying and Documenting Mitigation of Cardiovascular Risk," was developed in leadership collaboration between MDVIP and CHL for 95,144 patients who underwent wellness panel screenings performed by their MDVIP physicians in 2011. All analyses were performed on de-identified data, without regard for past medical history, physical examination or medication profile. Analysis was completed at the Cleveland HeartLab, Cleveland, OH.
Early detection of disease allows the potential for prevention or morbidity and mortality.
Success in modulating risk from one pathway often increases the need and utility of risk stratification by other pathways.
Molecular mechanisms of ischemic cardiovascular events are being better defined.
Beyond lipids, inflammation has a key role in inducing plaque rupture.
No single marker fully defines a patients' cardiovascular risk profile.
A panel of multiple markers that are not synergistic or additive increases costs unnecessarily without improving risk prediction.
Understanding the physiology reflected by a given biomarker allows multiple markers to be used in parallel to more fully define risk without redundancy.
Using a multimarker approach to identify patients prior to a clinical event has the potential to decrease costs if the event can be prevented.
A multimarker approach has the potential to risk stratify and define risk in self-insured populations to a greater extent than is now possible.
MDVIP, Inc. is the national leader in affordable personalized healthcare. With prevention at the center of its program, MDVIP has proven that its carefully chosen affiliated physicians provide exceptional care and achieve exceptional outcomes. These results include lower hospitalization rates which yield significant cost savings to patients, employers and the healthcare system. MDVIP-affiliated physicians limit their practices to no more than 600 patients in order to provide a customized wellness and preventive care program. There are currently over 650 MDVIP-affiliated physicians serving over 200,000 patients throughout the country. MDVIP, Inc. was founded in 2000 and is headquartered in Boca Raton, Florida.
