As explained in the Official "Press Release" located at this link https://makemusicday.co.uk/event/manchester-virtual-youth-choir-launch/ it is also National "Make Music" Day today as we see the Launch Video released for the "Manchester Virtual Youth Choir"
Set up by Ashleigh's Amazing Singing Teacher & Vocal Coach Phil Reynolds, this project which was started as a way to keep some private vocal students focused and engaged in April 2020 has snowballed into a virtual youth choir project complete with original rap, live drums and a multi screen video created by yet another (17 year old) student!.
Amazing singers from across Greater Manchester – many of whom have never met in person, let alone sung together before.
All recorded live on phones and tablets, with NO editing or auto-tune.
Hopefully the first of many (and may even be a live performance after lock-down ends!)
Dedicated to all those young (and not so young!) people suffering with mental health issues during the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown

RESUME FOR ALEX WILLIAM SMITH aka JONATHAN ROYLE HYPNOTIST – JUNE 2020
RESUME FOR ALEX WILLIAM SMITH
aka JONATHAN ROYLE HYPNOTIST
The Biology of Hypnosis, NLP, Hypnotherapy & Psychological Healing Therapies with Hypnotist Jonathan Royle at Future House Therapy Centre in Chesterfield.
Born on 13th August 1975 into a showbiz family whilst travelling with Gandey's Circus, Alex made his stage debut aged 3 and a bit as Flap the Clown.
He is now better known worldwide as Hypnotherapist Alex William Smith or in his stage name as Jonathan Royle Stage Hypnotist and International Hypnotherapy Trainer & Teacher.
Aged 14 in 1989 he became the youngest ever member of the Association of Professional Hypnotherapists & Psychotherapists (APHP) as founded by Dr. Brian Howard of Warrington, England in the early 1980's.
Indeed from the age of 14 in 1989, he started treating people with Hypnotherapy and thus to date (17th June 2020) has been conducting Professional Paid Hypnotherapy sessions for almost 31 years with great success.
Aged 15 in 1990 he became a member of the Association of Professional Stage Hypnotists (APSH) also founded by Dr. Brian Howard of Warrington, England in the early 1980's.
He immediately started presenting public demonstrations of Hypnosis both for Entertainment and also Educational Purposes.
Therefore to date (17th June 2020) has been doing Comedy Stage Hypnosis Shows and also Scientific and Educational demonstrations of Hypnotic Phenomena for almost 30 years.
Towards the end of 1993 (aged 18) he was engaged by Paul Brady, a then committee member of the National Register of Advanced Hypnotherapists (NRAH) & the International Association of Hypno-Analysts (IAH) to present a training seminar for fellow Professional Hypnotherapists teaching his own insights and experiences into both Stage Hypnosis and also Rapid Transformational Hypnotherapy Techniques.
Therefore to date, he has been presenting training seminars in Hypnosis for Therapeutic techniques around the world to Fellow Professionals including many Medical GP's, Nurses, Plastic Surgeons, Cancer Surgeons, Dentists and other established and respected Medical Professionals for almost 27 years.
He was awarded his first General Hypnotherapy Standards Council (GHSC) & General Hypnotherapy Register (GHR) approved Hypnotherapy Practitioner Diploma (HPD) back in 2004 from Dr. Raymond Roberts of Elestial Training in Wales.
Always one to keep studying and developing, more recently in 2017, he obtained another General Hypnotherapy Standards Council (GHSC) & General Hypnotherapy Register (GHR) approved Hypnotherapy Practitioner Diploma (HPD) from Susan Lawrence of Piece of Minds Hypnotherapy.
Since 2017 he has also been a Certified Trainer of NLP from The International Institute of Humanistic Neuro-Linguistic Psychology & Hypnosis.
Indeed it is highly likely that Alex has arguably got more NLP, Hypnosis, Hypnotherapy and Related Mind Therapy and Psychological Talking Mind Therapy Diplomas and Qualifications than any other living practitioner as he has constantly continued his Continued Professional Development over the past 30+ years.
A small selection of the literally hundreds of relevant Diplomas and Qualifications that he has been awarded over the decades can be seen by logging into Facebook (on a computer) and looking at this Link:
https://www.facebook.com/alexthehypnotist/media_set?set=a.10157286044922806&type=3
Back in August 2016, he was awarded membership to the "Hypnosis Hall of Fame" becoming only the Fourth Hypnotist in the World to be added to and given this honour by The South African Academy of Hypnosis as per the details located here

On the 6th December 2019, Alex was awarded a Special Recognition Award for his dedication and achievements in the World of Hypnosis over the past 30 years by the Pan-American Centre of Ethical Hypnosis aka Cepahiet as per the information here

Under his Professional Name "Jonathan Royle" he has over Two Dozen Books about Hypnotherapy, NLP, Mind Therapy and Related Areas available on Amazon and from all Major Book Stores.
He has over the past 25+ years also released over 200 Home Study Hypnotherapy & Mind Therapy Hypnosis Courses on DVD (formerly many on Video Tape) to fellow Professionals and an almost equal number of Self-Help & Personal Development Products and recordings to the general public.
Just a few examples of these unrivalled products and courses can be seen listed at https://vimeo.com/user27320168/vod_pages and also at http://www.sellfy.com/JonathanRoyle/
His Television Debut as a Hypnotist was in early 1993 aged 17 on Channel Fours Cult TV Show "The Word" and since then he has been featured on 100's of TV Shows around the world with his Mind Therapy Skills and Talents.
100's & 100's of features on Radio Shows around the World and in National and International Newspapers and Magazines have seen him get the Front Page and a double page spread in The Sun for curing a Ladies Fear of Traffic Wardens and a feature in USA Today where he had a therapeutic encounter with Robert De Niro and Billy Crystal to help promote the launch of their film Analyse that.
Early in 2020 he launched his online Video Interview Show "Hypnosis Week" via www.hypnosisweek.com and to date almost 70 leading figures from the Hypnotherapy & Hypnosis World have been interviewed by Alex on his show, which in the past few weeks has also launched an Audio Podcast version on all major platforms.
He has devised, road tested in the real world and perfected several unique Rapid Mind Therapy Treatment Techniques including:
01) Complete Mind Therapy = CMT
(The Proven One Session Treatment Approach for Most All Habits, Addicitons, Fears, Phobias and other Issues from A through to Z)
02) Mind Emotion Liberation Techniques = MELT
(Use these techniques to help your clients MELT their problems away often in a matter of minutes)
03) Complete Unconscious Reprogramming of Emotional Disease & Distress = CURED
(Use this to give your clients the "CURE" to their problem to help ensure they leave your office C.U.R.E.D.)
04) Psycho/Physio Energetic Alignment of Changing Energies & Emotions = PEACE
(Use these techniques to give your clients PEACE of Mind and also to help ensure that they have Inner PEACE)
05) Hypnotic Over-Ride Pain Elimination = HOPE
(Use this to Help Clients Overcome & Eliminate Pain Issues and also to give them HOPE for a better life)
06) Inner Revision Therapy = IRT
(A Rapid form of Hypno-Analysis to find the root cause of longterm emotional issues and then to positively and permanently remove the symptons and side effects that used to cause the client issues)
07) Virtual Gastric Band Hypnosis – The Complete Mind Therapy Approach.
(The Far more affordable and also Non Surgical and therefore Safer Alternative to Invasive Gastric Band Weight Loss Surgery)
08) Person Centered Psychotherapy = PCP
(Positive Emotional Responses & Switch Off Negatives)
09) Drug Release Therapy = DRT

10) Hypnotic Plastic Surgery = HPS
(The Non Invasive Alternative to Cosmetic Surgical Procedures)
And he has taught these techniques and approaches to literally thousands & thousands of Fellow Mind Therapy Practitioners around the World by way of his Live Training Seminars & events around the world and also by way of his online "Elite Hypnosis Bootcamp" as per the details at this link:
https://hypnosis.official.academy/#!elite-hypnosis-bootcamp-passive-hypnosis-profits-platinum-edition-20/1/Lomxz/
Indeed it is true to state that it is highly likely that Alex has taught more people (around the world) who are currently successful working Professional Hypnotherapists and/or Stage Hypnotists than any other living Hypnosis trainer in the world today.

Just a few quotes (from Medical Professionals) from those links about Alex's Courses & Hypnotic Skills include:
"I just finished watching Royle's 10-DVD training on 'There's No Such Thing as Hypnosis' and found his presentation style to be captivating and exciting. Many clinical experts out there (particularly here in the US) are good at taking a topic and making it complex and dry, but to me the real brilliance is taking a complex subject, boiling it down to its essence and making it seem simple, which is exactly what Jonathan does in this series. There is a tremendous amount of very applicable, real world advice in this set, even for hypnotherapists like myself using it in the trenches with patients, and I highly recommend it!!"

Undoubtedly one of the funniest, most intelligent and hugely entertaining presentations on hypnosis, NLP and therapy I have experienced. Go and see Jonathan – he will rock your beliefs, make you laugh out loud and probably outrage you. The hypnosis and NLP world needs more people like him. Jonathan Royle – APPROVED!
Andrew T. Austin, Chichester, Nov. 2005

Thanks Jonathan, I'm really glad we met, in terms of learning Hypnotherapy & Stage Hypnosis. And so are the 700 US Devil Pups and 750 real, genuine US Marine recruits at Camp Pendleton. The US Government does not let civilians talk to or interact with Marines recruits in boot camp, and because of what you taught me, they broke that rule. That is very rare, and a very high honor. I guarantee you will never have another hypnosis student who will be able to say they did group hypnosis on Junior Marines, or did suggestibility testing on US Marine recruits.

Consulting Hypnotist & Comedy Stage Hypnotist – U.S.A

"I can honestly say that I have never been disappointed in either quality of content or volume of information taught! Because of my background in formal education I was originally drawn to studying with a recognised training provider, members of the General Hypnotherapy Standards Council (GHSC). My training with them was excellent, however it was greatly enhanced by Jonathan Royles material and indeed Royles material was excellent and far superior to the recognised course. His therapy skills are equal if not greater than the majority of therapists I have met to date and he teaches everything he knows in an open and honest manner. We need people like Royle to raise the profile of Hypnosis and I would recommend his courses to anyone who wants to become a better Hypnotist!"

(Holder of Two Royal Charters & Former Health & Safety Competent Person for The National Council of Hypnotherapy)
'For the newcomers to hypnotherapy, this Royle Event will , in my view, fast forward them in time and experience by 2 to 3 years, almost like a shortcut to success. For the people who have been therapists for a long time, get yer ass to this event, and listen to what this guy has to say. You might just learn something. As a training provider myself, and one of the few who has stood the test of time, Alex is probably one of a few that i would actually listen to – and if i was available, I would be sat their right at the front of the class with my gob shut and my eyes and ears open!!'
BRIAN GLENN – INNERVISIONS.– http://www.innervisionsuk.com
"I learned a tremendous amount about all sorts of ways of making money, how to get more clients and the right way to approach them! Royle is very honest, outspoken and controversial, he kept me entertained and interested for the full two days and had 100's of useful tips to impart. In short I would recommend the videos of Royles May 2004 Hypnotic Marketing Success Videos to everybody as they are much better value and contain more information than any other similar seminar or training I've' ever been on!"
Dr. COLIN BARRON – GLASGOW – Former Medical GP.

Just quick note to say thanks for the DVDs – 'There's no such thing as hypnosis'. I really enjoyed watching the DVDs. Bought them off ebay from you. I'm a Medical GP and have always been extremely sceptical about a lot of things. Hypnosis, homeopathy, acupuncture, osteopathy, pretty well anything alternative as little other than placebo effect. I'm also an amateur magician – hobbiest – and enjoy fooling people. Been member of Newcastle Magic Circle for 15yrs. Makes me think of the rituals that go on with a visit to the doctors, how people expect certain things. E.g. it's a waste of time examining people the majority of the time. Most doctors have a pretty good idea of the problem within 30secs of a patient coming in. We have to have our rituals though to establish credibility! Thinking about branching out into hypnotherapy now – think of the credentials – known, respected GP. Clients will be well 'hypnotised' before entering the room. A little naughty though as I don't believe in hypnosis!! Keep up the good work.

Now Considered by many to be one of the World's Leading Authority's on the "Non State Theory" of Hypnosis and the Reality, Use and Power of "Placebo in Hypnosis", Alex is one of the World's Most Qualified, Experienced and Hugely Successful Hypnotherapists & Hypnotic Practitioners.
In late 2017, he ran a one day event which was organised by Sky TV's "Fat Families" Presenter, Clinical Hypnotherapist & FATnosis Founder Steve Miller during which he taught the truth about how and why all Hypnosis and Related techniques truly work.
This event was attended by Professional Hypnotherapists, Psychologists, Medical GP's, Nurses, Psychologists and other related Professionals who all gave Alex two, YES TWO Standing Ovations at the end of the day as can be seen here –
And 60 Seconds of highlights from the day have been collected into this short video here –
Videos of the Full approx. 6 hours of the day can be download FREE of charge from www.hypnotismexposed.com
(Please just be sure to check your junk and/or spam folders in case the download links get sent their by your email client)
Watch those videos and you will be in no doubt that when it comes to Hypnosis, Alex Smith who is better known to many as Jonathan Royle is without doubt one of the leading Experts in the World today.
Indeed he is regularly consulted by Famous Name Television Life Coaches, Hypnotists & Personal Development Guru's to help them hone their own skills and to also advise on how they can increase their own success and business.
One recent example is that British Television Life Coaches The Speakmans (Of ITV's This Morning Fame) licensed Alex's "Complete Mind Therapy" treatment System and used a script written by Alex to produce their "Your Key to Becoming the Best Ever You" Audio Self-Help Compact Disc.
He also acted as a consultant for their "You Can Be Cured" DVD and helped organise and promote the first two of their public training events something he has also done (event organisation and consultancy) for many other Famous Names in the Industry.
When Paul McKenna ran a company called "McKenna Breen" in London during the mid to late 90's, pretty much all of the Companies Staff and Seminar Facilitators studied Alex's "Complete Mind Therapy" Course having had it recommended to them (as stated in all their application forms) by Paul McKenna himself.
The list go's on and on with Alex having regularly advised, consulted for and/or mentored many of the biggest names in this industry today.
In 2019 he presented the Feature Length Documentary on MK-Ultra Style Mind Control & Psychological Persuasion entitled "Extreme Danger – Extreme Hypnosis" as per the preview Web Series which promoted the official Feature Documentary Release as per:
His Main official website is – http://www.magicalguru.com/resume/
With Over 30+ years extensive experience in all areas of Hypnosis & Mind Therapy and given the fact that Alex has either taught or heavily advised many existing Hypnotherapist Members of The Royal Society of Medicine (RSM) you can be assured that he is at the cutting edge of all things Hypnosis & Mind Related.
British Hypnotist & Conspiracy Researcher Jonathan Royle
"I have been an admirer of the prolific work of Alex William Smith since I first became aware of him in 2008. I have studied many of his training products and learnt a huge amount from him which I use in my work at the Harley Street Hypnotherapy Clinic.
I also share much of the knowledge I have learnt from him when lecturing to doctors and nurses at the College of Medicine and the National Centre for Integrative Medicine in Bristol. Alex is one of the most knowledgeable and productive hypnotherapy trainers alive today.

Australian supermarket giant Woolworths has launched a promotion involving the sale of Tasmanian eggs in a bid to garner favour after rival Coles Supermarkets' fall from grace. Coles encountered much criticism when it imported 15,000 eggs from New South Wales-based Pace Farm into Tasmania for a national sales promotion. Critics said that the move endangered the local industry, putting farms and jobs at risk.

His father, Latte, the Thamesmead cappuccino king, disapproves of Bobby's slacker lifestyle and thinks his dear departed wife spoiled the boy.
Bobby and his best mate Vin, a thug with a heart, decide that their best shot at redemption is to set up the world's first all white English Kabaddi team. Obviously.

Reviving – and Revising – the Reputation of Ralph Elwood Brock

Features appear in each issue of Pennsylvania Heritage showcasing a variety of subjects from various periods and geographic locations in Pennsylvania.
On May 31, 1966, D. S. Nace of the state Department of Forests and Waters, now the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR), scrawled a note to Joe Hill of the Mont Alto Nursery, in Franklin County, and attached it to a stack of documents. "Might find something of interest in these. Don't Destroy," he cautioned. Those nine words ultimately proved to be an invaluable directive. This stack contained twenty-four letters, a set of lecture notes, and a ledger written by Ralph Elwood Brock (1883–1958) some fifty years earlier.
At first glance, the papers appeared to be just another set of records kept by an employee of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. However, they proved to be much more than that—they are a record of life at Mont Alto Forest Reserve for the first African American forester in the United States. According to historical sources, Brock was born in the early 1880s near the Schuylkill County seat of Pottsville, to the Reverend John C. Brock (1843–1901), of the African Methodist Episcopal (A. M. E.) Church, and Alcinda Jane (Dickson) Brock, both of whom emphasized and embraced education. Dickson was born in Virginia and Brock was a native of Carlisle, Cumberland County. The Reverend Brock, a veteran of the American Civil War, served in Company F of the 43rd Regiment, United States Colored Troops. He began his military career on April 5, 1864, as a private and was mustered out on October 20, 1865, as a quartermaster sergeant. Like many African American soldiers during the war, he dispatched letters from the battlefield to The Christian Recorder, the official newspaper of the A. M. E. Church, published in Philadelphia beginning in 1863.
Brock and Dickson married in Carlisle on Christmas Day in 1867. In addition to Ralph, they were the parents of Mary Elizabeth, William (who died in infancy), Rachel Alcinda, Maria Louisa, John Robert, and Howard Faunteroy. The family moved about southcentral and southeastern Pennsylvania for several years. A census taker in Carlisle for 1870 reported John Brock was employed as a gardener, but several sources state he was a schoolteacher in Harrisburg and nearby Steelton, Dauphin County, and Marietta, Lancaster County. The July 3, 1878, edition of the Harrisburg Daily Patriot listed him as a teacher at the city's Eleventh Street School "for colored students." The 1880 Census recorded the Brocks living in the capital city's second ward, shortly after which they moved to the Chester County seat of West Chester.
In West Chester, the Reverend Brock resumed his duties as a teacher and minister. In 1891, he married a young couple, Janifer and Julia Rustin, the maternal grandparents of civil rights activist Bayard Rustin (1912–1987). Ralph Brock's sister Maria taught English and elocution to Rustin while a student at West Chester's Gay Street School, an all-black elementary school noted for its legendary teaching staff. The widely acclaimed PBS Point of View Series documentary Brother Outsider: The Life of Bayard Rustin, produced by Sam Pollard, cites Maria Brock as essentially responsible for Rustin's command of language as well as his captivating speaking ability (see "In King's Shadow: Bayard Rustin and the 1963 March on Washington" by William C. Kashatus, Winter 2004). She served as a principal correspondent for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), reporting on annual branch activities.
The Brock family was an integral part of the African American community in West Chester. Ralph Brock entered West Chester's public school system but graduated from Howard High School in Wilmington, Delaware. The Association for the Moral Improvement and Education of Colored People — founded in 1866 by white clergy and business leaders to build thirty-five primary schools to educate black children — established the school in 1867, which eventually evolved into the high school. The association named the school to honor General Oliver Otis Howard (1830–1909), Civil War veteran and commissioner, from 1865 to 1874, of the U. S. Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen, and Abandoned Lands. As head of the so-called Freedmen's Bureau, Howard promoted the welfare and education of former slaves.
Ralph Brock lived in Wilmington from 1899 until his graduation in 1900. He moved in 1901 to Carlisle, his father's last charge before the minister became ill and returned in June to his home in West Chester. He was a good student who apparently impressed Addison L. Jones (1856–1924), superintendent of West Chester's public schools for thirty-five years, from 1889 until his death and, like the Brocks, resided on Miner Street. In late November 1901, Jones brought Brock — who had lost his father in August — to the attention of Joseph Trimble Rothrock (1839–1922), appointed the Commonwealth's first commissioner of forestry in 1895. In his letter, Jones queried Rothrock about "a place" for the young Brock in his department.
Born in McVeytown, Mifflin County, Joseph Trimble Rothrock earned a bachelor of science degree in botany from Harvard University in 1862, enlisted in the Union Army in 1863, and saw action during the Civil War at Antietam and Fredericksburg, where he was seriously wounded. The University of Pennsylvania awarded him a doctor of medicine degree in 1867. He taught botany, worked as a surgeon, and helped establish the Wilkes-Barre Hospital in northeastern Pennsylvania's Luzerne County. For the Agricultural College of Pennsylvania, now the Pennsylvania State University, he served as professor of botany, human anatomy, and physiology from 1867 to 1869. Although he never professed to be a forester — his credentials were those of scientist, botanist, and physician — Rothrock was closely linked to the Pennsylvania Forestry Association throughout his long career. As forestry commissioner, he advocated the purchase of lands for the State Forestry Reservations, the training of foresters for state service, the establishment of forest tree nurseries for reforestation, and the formation of a system of facilities and people to detect and extinguish forest fires.
In 1902, without government support or endorsement, Rothrock established a camp in Mont Alto State Forest to treat tuberculosis patients with a regimen of fresh air and vigorous exercise. Rothrock's White Pine Camp, nothing more than a few crudely built shacks, evolved into the Mont Alto Sanatorium and to what is today the South Mountain Restoration Center. The state legislature appropriated eight thousand dollars in 1903 to enlarge the camp, which was moved farther east, to higher ground where the air was not as damp. Rothrock may himself have been suffering from tuberculosis — known as consumption and later as the White Plague — which decimated families and entire communities in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. He stepped down as forestry commissioner in 1904 but served as a member of the State Forestry Commission until 1914, when poor health forced him to resign. He died in 1922 at the age of eighty-three.
Just two months after Jones had written him, Rothrock began corresponding with Brock and the two developed a relationship in which the commissioner served as mentor. At Rothrock's suggestion, in April 1902, Governor William A. Stone (1846–1920) appointed Brock as student assistant forester at Mont Alto State Forest Reserve, located in a wilderness known for its abundant natural resources and beauty.
While studying at the Pennsylvania State Forest Academy, Brock worked as student superintendent of the nursery. An outstanding student, he excelled in courses in civil government, constables manuals and laws, geology, political geography, forest influences, chemistry, zoology, silviculture (the care and cultivation of forest trees), and nursery practice. He graduated from the academy with a 90.4 average, ranking second in his class. Following graduation, Brock remained at Mont Alto, where he became superintendent of the nursery. The Pennsylvania Negro Business Directory for 1910 identified him as "probably the only experienced forester of the colored race in Pennsylvania. He has spent a great deal of his time making a study of this very important question: how to preserve our forests."
Brock supervised the nursery from September 1, 1906, until March 1, 1911. In January 1908, he married Pauline Wethers of West Chester, and the couple lived at Mont Alto until his resignation five years later. Officials highly regarded Brock, who appeared zealous and eager in both professional and personal pursuits. In a letter to Rothrock in January 1903, he requested time to work in West Chester's African American community later that spring. "While home I noted that the important events held by members of my race at our church institutions, conferences etc. generally occurred between the middle & end of May & since most of these are controlled by men interested in & known to me by my Father.Would you think that an advisable time to go & become acquainted with them in their work & its effects."
Brock also informed Rothrock he would be traveling to Tuskegee, Alabama, "to learn first handed the work done in the pineries and turpen- tine forests." A historically black college, Tuskegee Institute (now Tuskegee University) would have been one of the few institutions to welcome Brock, an African American. In a letter to Robert S. Conklin, Rothrock's successor as forestry commissioner, in November 1910, Brock requested permission to allow D. W. Ogden of Philadelphia to stay with him at Mont Alto. Dr. Ogden was an individual "of influence and position, and at present, he is a leading factor in several 'movements' that are of interest to my race, regarding preventative measures in Tuberculosis, and for this reason alone I should like to have him, and show him all I know regarding this open air work." In most of Brock's correspondence to the Department of Forestry's administrators, he sought permission to undertake the most basic of functions and request supplies. However, some other correspondence is more of a personal nature, provoked by circumstances decidedly unsettling to his superiors.
In several letters written between 1908 and 1910, Brock addressed what appeared to be a persistent problem of poor personal finances and miscommunication. For instance, several of his personal bills had been sent to the academy instead of his residence, and administrators suspected that he might have been attempting to have his personal obligations paid by the school. "Referring to your letter to Mr. Wirt regarding some goods ordered of Wm. H. Moon & Co. by me," he wrote to Conklin on December 6, 1908, "I desire to state that it is for some roses, hydrangras etc. that I had ordered for some parties, a relative of mine, to whom I sent the bill & several statements that were sent to me, which now I had thought paid." In a letter to Conklin dated June 10, 1910, Brock wrote, "Mr. [Edwin A.] Ziegler [the second and last director of the academy] has just presented me with several bills to which you desire explanations, the first a telephone bill has been paid some time ago." Brock evidently resented such questioning. "The second," he bristled, "refers to a personal bill at the Corona [Hotel in a predominantly black neighborhood in Harrisburg], which I requested sent to me the first of every month & for which I gave my address, which to my mind appears self evident. I expect to be in Harrisburg an evening early next week on some business connected with the Masonic Home & shall pay the bill at the time. It had no business being presented to your office in the first place."
Three months later, in a letter to Conklin written September 21, Brock explained he was informing the secretary "more fully regarding the matter referred to in a previous letter. I thought that it was my place to acquaint you fully with the arrangements that were made, while I was in a very difficult position. The arrangement that was made then has been fully adjusted by the sale of a small property here. . . . Also Mr. Conklin, I desire to make an ample apology for the concern I have given you lately. I have been in a great deal of trouble lately, some of my making & some that I am not responsible [for], all of which has worked ill for me, my color making it harder for me than another, though this is offered as no excuse on my part. Of course I know not of all that has been learned by you, but all that I know of that concern financial obligations I have met & I am now free of all debt, excepting current expense. I shall turn over my accounts to Mr. Hoerner who has always been kind & considerate towards me to further my strength in money matters. I think it is a good arrangement for me and I hope it further meets with your approval. Also I trust that even through reverses my work has been satisfactory, for I have given far the fullest benefit of my ability, without stint." Brock added a note under the heading "Personal" at the end of his handwritten letter. "This property does not represent my entire 'savings,' only that part that was in a form for attachment that required Mrs. Brock's joining in. The rest has been placed in trust some time ago."
Historians and researchers have been unable to find definitive proof why Brock left the academy. A 1909 graduate of the academy recalled five years later, "Brock had a hard time of it for none of the boys could quite content himself being ordered around by a darky, regardless of his ability." In letters to Irvin C. Williams, deputy commissioner of forestry early in 1911, he made clear his intentions to leave state service and join the private sector. On January 25, he asked Williams, "I desire to ask, if you have time, if you would care to give me any particular advise regarding the work I shall undertake down near West Chester, also if you would advise me whom to approach?" He added, "Dr. Rothrock will have some work through the Shade Tree Commission. I have written several men who are interested in suburban real estate operation. . . .I have learned of some of the holders of woodlands through the boys who were here helping on the Chestnut Blight Investigations" [see "Our Documentary Heritage" in this edition]. Brock also explained he intended to emphasize his work at Mont Alto in advertising.
"I am very anxious to get as much work as possible in my home section, as well as be of real service," he informed Williams in a letter dated February 12. "Regarding the forest industry," he continued, "I have been following closely the developments in handling orchards and it was really in that line that I intended to get a fair share of the work. I had made arrangements for securing a spraying outfit, when you mentioned it, tho I did not get a motor machine as I intend not to make any 'bluffs' at all, but to establish a permanent business by doing thorough work at as small a cost as possible, both to myself & those that I hope to serve. I think that this is the best method of making a sure start, and I am very anxious to make a success of it."
While employed at Mont Alto, Brock remained involved with the African American community of West Chester, and after his resignation on March 11, 1911, he and his wife moved to West Chester, where he "engaged in landscape gardening and orcharding…most of his work is caring for suburban and country estates in the vicinity of New York City and Philadelphia." He worked in landscaping in the West Chester and Philadelphia areas until the early 1920s, when he moved to Cleveland, Ohio. In 1928, John D. Rockefeller Jr. hired him as a gardener for the Paul Laurence Dunbar Apartments in Harlem. Rockefeller built the apartment complex, named to honor poet Paul Laurence Dunbar (1872–1906), the African American poet who garnered national critical acclaim. (Dunbar's ex-wife, poet Alice Ruth Moore Dunbar later taught at Brock's alma mater, Wilmington's Howard High School.) Brock worked, too, for the Rockefeller interests as a supervisor of the Radio City Gardens at Rockefeller Center. He also worked at Riverside Park, a narrow four-mile long park adjacent to the Hudson River on Manhattan's Upper West Side. From 1944 to 1945, he worked as a part-time assistant gardener at the Harlem River Houses, a sprawling apartment complex covering nine acres erected in 1937 specifically for African Americans, the first public housing project built with federal funds, under the auspices of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal. Failing health forced him to retire in 1957. Brock and Pauline moved to New Jersey to be near his brother, Dr. Howard F. Brock, living in Westfield.
Ralph E. Brock died at the age of seventy-nine on December 9, 1959, at the Smith Convalescent Home in Lawnside, New Jersey. In addition to his wife and brother, survivors included his sister Maria, a son Russell T., and a grandson. He was buried in Chestnut Grove Cemetery in West Chester, Pennsylvania.
Although DCNR renamed the South Mountain Seed Orchard, about two miles from Mont Alto, long a mainstay of state forest seed and seedling production, the Ralph E. Brock Seed Orchard on the forester's birthday in 2000, his story attracted greater attention three years later, during the centennial celebration of Penn State Mont Alto. In 1929, despite bitter student and alumni opposition, the Commonwealth merged the academy and the Pennsylvania State College (now University) to create the Mont Alto campus. In 2003, the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission (PHMC) installed a state historical marker honoring Brock at the entrance to the campus during the centennial year. (Other markers erected by the PHMC at Mont Alto commemorate the founding of the Pennsylvania State Forest Academy and George H. Wirt, its first director.) Other tributes included the creation of the Ralph E. Brock Environmental Stewardship Scholarship Fund in 2000 to benefit students at the Cornerstone Christian Academy in Philadelphia, and the planting of a tree in his honor by the Pottsville Shade Tree Commission in the city's historic Charles Baber Cemetery on Arbor Day in 2001. Most recently, The State Museum of Pennsylvania installed a display in Ecology Hall chronicling Brock's early career at Mont Alto.
Ralph Elwood Brock was the first African American forester in the United States. His importance lies not in his race but in his commitment to conservation and forestry, a legacy that endures far beyond the millions of trees planted under his direction. His is a story of persistence in the face of challenge, and of courage in the shadow of doubt. His life's work — to make this world self-sustaining and beautiful — made a significant contribution to underscoring William Penn's vision of a healthful, verdant colony, and a country life the founder succinctly described as "A Sweet and Natural Retreat from Noise and Talk, and allows opportunity for Reflection, and gives the best Subjects for it."
No matter where roads take one in the Keystone State, travelers are bound to be awed by the abundant natural beauty. Dozens of state parks, as well as state game and forest lands, national forests, recreational areas, scenic byways, wildlife preserves, habitat sanctuaries, rivers, ponds, and lakes beckon both residents and visitors with seemingly limitless opportunities to discover firsthand the majesty of Penn's Woods. Agencies and organizations dedicated to showcasing our vast natural resources — and their efforts to conserve them — are as varied as the field of natural history itself.
The Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR) preserves and maintains 117 state parks (including the 23-acre Mont Alto State Park in Franklin County), manages 2.1 million acres of state forest lands (including Rothrock State Forest, named for Pennsylvania's "Father of Forestry," Joseph Trimble Rothrock), and provides information on the Commonwealth's ecological and geologic resources. DCNR also establishes community conservation partnerships through grants and technical assistance to benefit rivers, trails, greenways, regional heritage parks, open space, and natural areas. For example, DCNR's Kings Gap Environmental Education Center, consisting of 1,454 acres on South Mountain in Cumberland County, offers a panoramic view of the Cumberland Valley, sixteen miles of hiking trails, and diverse environmental education, interpretation, and awareness programs. To learn more about DCNR and the areas and programs it administers.
Founded in 1993, the Ned Smith Center for Nature and Art, near Millersburg, in northern Dauphin County, fosters appreciation for the natural and cultural heritage of Pennsylvania and furthers the legacy of the nationally recognized wildlife artist, illustrator, naturalist, and writer E. Stanley "Ned" Smith (1919–1985). The center houses a gallery featuring paintings by Smith and various wildlife artists, oversees twelve miles of hiking travels, hosts monthly lectures, and offers special programs for school, youth, and community groups.
Many recognize the Western Pennsylvania Conservancy (WPC), founded in 1932, as one of the nation's oldest and leading conservation organizations—its land stewardship, forestland conservation, and natural heritage programs are nationally recognized—but few may realize that the conservancy also administers Frank Lloyd Wright's architectural masterpiece, Fallingwater, on Bear Run, a rushing mountain stream at Mill Creek, Fayette County. Designed by Wright in 1935 for the Edgar J. Kaufmann family of Pittsburgh, Fallingwater is the architect's only residential commission open to the public with its setting, original furnishings, and art collection intact. WPC also manages the 5,189-acre Bear Run Nature Reserve, its largest property, in Fayette County. To learn more about WPC programs and to plan a visit to Fallingwater.
Pennsylvania native Rachel Carson (1907–1964) sounded the alarm for environmental awareness with her 1962 book Silent Spring, in which she warned the public about the effects of misusing pesticides, challenged the practices of agricultural scientists and the government, and called for a change in the way humankind viewed the natural world. The Rachel Carson Homestead, a plain, five-room farmhouse in Springdale, Allegheny County, where the biologist, scientist, and writer was born and where her family lived until 1930, treats visitors to an intimate look at Carson's world. To mark the centennial of her birth, a Spirit and Nature Conference will be held on Saturday, November 3, at Chatham University (formerly Pennsylvania College for Women), Pittsburgh, Carson's alma mater. Workshops and panel discussions will address the reverence for nature found in world religions.

Summer Fashion Week started yesterday and I'm on a high from all the fashionable looks and sweet, sweet blog love that it has already brought my way. To learn more about the project and figure out how to get involved on YOUR blog – Yes, even you, the one reading this in your jammies… put the coffee down and get involved! It's not too late – click here. Emery is hosting this week long style round up at her blog Moms are for Everyone! and participating will be good for you.
As I mentioned yesterday, you get an all expense paid tour of Chattanooga, Tennessee in addition to mere fashion here at A Foreign Land. So hang on to your hats!
Today we're visiting The Passage (seen above) and the Aquarium grounds (seen below). Both sites are located on Chattanooga's beautiful Riverfront. The Riverfront was redeveloped in 2005 to tune of $120 million and is worth every penny spent. It is absolutely amazing. The Passage (a set of stairs running from street level down into the Tennessee river) was created in memory of the Cherokee Trail of Tears, part of which began here in Chattanooga. It is the largest public art project celebrating Cherokee history and culture. Plus, it's incredibly beautiful and fun to play in at any age! It just recently reopened after 2 years of reconstruction. Needless to say, I'm glad it's back.
Then just around the corner is a man made stream which runs between the Tennessee Aquarium's two buildings (fresh water and salt water). The stream provides tons of space for kids (and adults) to splash and play around in and also creates a gorgeous landscape. The entire park is basically one photo op after another.

Q: Jquery document.location.reload() doesn't work correctly I need to reload the page after I update my database via ajax. In my ajax post method, I have something like the following:
success: function (data) {
    ....(some code doesn't matter)
    document.location.reload();
    ....(some other code I wish to execute after document is reloaded)

}

However, the code after reload() will be executed first and then page will reload.
What am I doing wrong?

A: Instead of doing a reload, redirect the page and add a variable at the end
window.location.replace("http://example.com/yourpage.php?extravariable");

You can then add some code to check for the GET and run the javascript code if the get value is set.

A: When page is reloaded the code after document.location.reload(); is executed on the old instance of page, not the reloaded one.
You will need to add a parameter to the current location and do onDocumentReady on a breach that tests the parameter on the document.location to add the code you want.
ex:
document.location = document.location.href + "?afterReload=true";

$(document).ready(function() {
  if ( window.location.search.substring(1) != '' ){
     //do something
  }
});

The Catholic Register's Youth Speak News team has put together a list of faith-based youth titles we recommend for your summer reading.
Irene Hannon has readers digging for truth in her latest novel Buried Secrets. The first in her new Men of Valor series, this book follows small-town police chief Lisa Grant and detective Mac McGregor as they solve the mystery of a recently discovered skeleton in an unmarked grave. But not everyone wants this mystery solved. Some of the perpetrators stand to lose a lot if this investigation continues, and will stop at nothing to ensure that their 24-year-old secret remains buried.
This book delivers a realistic, intriguing plot. Hannon clearly did her research, providing a believable account of small-town police work, forensic analysis and civilian life. Book jacket testimonials hail Hannon as "the queen of inspirational romantic suspense." Do not let this mislead you. Aside from a few references to God and prayer, and a clear rooting in traditional Christian family values, this is not a faith-based novel. Rather, Hannon has crafted two characters whose faith is just as much a part of their lives as their jobs and their families. It may seem mundane, but in popular media, it is a rarity to have faith included in the normal depictions of everyday life.
A perfect read for a summer weekend, Buried Secrets takes readers on a journey of light dialogue and fun intrigue. Grant and McGregor work together to piece together this long-dead puzzle, as they navigate dangerous suspects and a budding romantic relationship. This fusion of romance and mystery makes for the perfect cottage reading experience.
This short, yet insightful book is like a breath of fresh air. With more than 100 testimonies from priests, nuns and youth ministers, this book gives you so much joy and hope for the future generations following in Christ's footsteps. Not only did these stories talk about the good and bad of consecrated life, but they also shared the struggles to accept and follow God's path. Following Christ meant leaving everything behind and placing all their trust in Him. Many sacrifices were made, and these stories are living proof.
A project initiated by Pope Francis for the Year of Consecrated Life, this book draws the reader in by telling the truth about living in a Christ-filled world. There's no sugar coating or fairy tales. We learn about their sacrifices and how even after 20 years of consecrated life, it is impossible to be a perfect human being.
I think trying to be the best version of ourselves is often confused with being perfect. In today's society, we are constantly pressured to be and do everything perfectly. However, when it comes to faith, it's practically impossible.
What really struck me about this book was the role of the parents in a lot of these testimonies. We are all the children of God, therefore He acts as our Father figure. Parents act as our protectors, heroes, shoulders to cry on and our personal cheerleaders. They motivate us to be the best version of ourselves, to be happy and follow our dreams, just like God does. When looking at our parents, they play a huge in our upbringing, part of which is exposure to religion.
Tweeting with God is not a book you read in the order it's presented. It's more like a choose your own adventure style journey through Catholic doctrine and beliefs. Start where you're curious and go forward and backwards as you feel drawn.
Each page is topped with its own question — the basic who, what, when, where, how, or why of the teaching it's trying to explain; and ends with a tweet of 140 characters or less summarizing the answer.
One thing I really liked about Tweeting with God was that it includes sections on very modern things like how to use social media in the right way. The book is not organized quite like the catechism, and I think in this way it's a lot more about how to apply the teaching than what the teaching actually is, which makes it a great supplement or companion to the YouCat or the Catechism. It also includes helpful references to the supporting Catechism section or bible verse for if you want to look it up and read more for context or information.
Where it excels is in making the teachings approachable. It's not overly wordy, and all of the explanations are kept simple enough to be easily understood by a lay person, without being so simple that you feel like the author is dumbing it down for you.
I've been very much enjoying flipping through to different sections as I putter along and, because it is so approachable, I've read a lot more of Tweeting with God than I have the Catechism. I recommend this for young people who are looking for a fun way to engage and learn more about the Catholic Chuch.
Shadows of the Past is the first instalment of the Logan Point series by Christian author Patricia Bradley. The novel tells the love story of how tragic secrets bring Taylor Martin and Nick Sinclair together. As Taylor searches for her stalker and her missing father, Nick wrestles with grief and mourns his murdered wife.
Though the book begins on a climactic note, with a death threat and black roses, I found the plot moved a bit slowly at times and it was difficult for me to ease into the story at first. Also, because of the many subplots and the large cast of characters, I was worried that the novel would be too busy for its length. However, Bradley does a great job of unpacking the story and keeping the reader engaged and interested.
In our society, romance novels have been cast with a raunchy shadow that emphasizes the lesser goods of love. Reading this book was a refreshing introduction to romantic Christian literature that did not require a trip to the confessional afterwards.
Taylor is a young single woman, who balances the demands of her teaching job at the university in addition to her work as a criminal profiler. I thought Taylor was a realistically crafted character. I identified with her frustrations, her moments of doubt.
Suspenseful mystery romance is not usually the genre that I read and so I was excited to read a book, unlike Young Adult (YA) dystopia fiction, that was geared towards an audience in their twenties and thirties.
Stories about the Samaritan woman and the woman caught in the act of adultery and Lazarus's sister, Martha, have been told hundreds of times at Mass. Jesus' words to these women have been familiar lessons to us all, but somehow, this book still surprised me.
Frank Viola and Mary Demuth take us through time to better understand the world and the circumstance that these women had come from before Jesus changed their lives forever. The authors beautifully married Scripture with historical research to create a fuller narration of what these women would have been thinking and feeling.
Though our circumstance as women in today's society has changed, I think the women in this book are still relatable and inspirational. Who hasn't felt like they were helpless and broken in some way?
It is a small book, but it's a heavy read. I recommend sharing this book with your girlfriends. The end of each chapter includes the actual Scripture passage, some historical context, spiritual reflections and group discussion questions. It's a great way to open up a conversation about how these women can be lessons about our own encounters with Jesus.
However, I do think that readers have to be careful to remember that this book should be absorbed with a grain of salt. It is a dramatized interpretation of Scripture and should not be treated anything more than that.
Just saw this. Thank you so much for the great review and recommendation. Even though I'm Catholic, it's been hard to get any exposure in Catholic media--even our own local Catholic press! So I was delighted to see this. Again, thank you for featuring my book!

LOVE this app. I use it all the time both for trying to remember a song I knew but forgot the artist or a new song that catches my ear. I have been a SoundHound users since what feels like the beginning. They have proven to be consistent and reliable. Which is quick and accurate results. One of the main reasons I love SoundHound is for the feature that no other app features. Which is live lyrics! That is by far one of the coolest most useful things about SoundHound! Being able to sing along (rather badly) with either a fav song or even a new song im obsessed with learning the lyrics to, the app is there for me :). SoundHound I felt has always tried to give the user what they want. Realizing its difficult to please everyone, I for one have been a very happy and satisfied customer since its launch. I tried the "other" guys and they were just too commercial for me. SoundHound was the right balance of finding new music without pushing the sales-y part of the music industry onto me. I love it for its accuracy, its fast results, and giving me MORE if I chose to know more. Its all there. Keep up the good work guys!
Thank you for your review! Happy to hear you've enjoyed using SoundHound. If you have any additional feedback to share in the future, please don't hesitate to let us know!
Return User - Excellent App!
So, my wife and I are music fiends; grew up on it, love most genres - well, except country but that's for personal reasons no room to explain - whenever a song is played on a tv show or movie - or anywhere really - that catches our attention, we love to use our phones to find out who the artist is and song name. Well, we once used this app years ago; but as apps and space became an issue it sadly went away. Mainly because hey, "Siri has the same feature right?" Let me tell you this people: Siri has digressed in many ways since it's period of amazing us. When Siri continues to take FOREVER to reply to the simple request of identifying the song - no, this is not a WiFi or network issue as most of you will agree - the song is OVER or the cutscene where the song is used is long gone and Siri still is identifying....well, we've had enough. This app is great, always has been. We are happy with its features and will NOT be using "you know who" for those requests anymore...or most other things these days...but that's a different story. Great app keep up the good work developers!
I LOVE Soundhound❣ My husband introduced it to me about a year ago and I have used it to see who the artist of a song is, to see the lyrics on a song playing on the radio or my favorite TV Station " Contemporary Christian Music". It keeps a song I love on a playlist and can go back and listen to it again anytime I want to. There are so many things you can do and/or find out about a song, an artist, search for a song even if you only know part of the lyrics and it will 9out of 10 times find the name of the song and artist, I could go on and on about SoundHound it is my all time FAVORITE APP of all the millions you can get!

COVID-19 Practical Considerations: Responding to Data Subject Access and FOI Requests
While organisations are being forced to significantly adapt the way they conduct business, certain regulatory and statutory timeframes continue to apply unchanged.
Click here to view this briefing in PDF format.
This briefing considers the recent guidance of the Data Protection Commission ("DPC") on how organisations should respond to data subject access requests, and that of the Freedom of Information Central Policy Unit of the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform (the "FOI Unit") on the handling of FOI requests.
As the situation around COVID-19 evolves daily, it is imperative to keep abreast of up-to-date guidance from these and other relevant bodies.
Article 12(3) of the General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR") requires data controllers to provide a response to a data subject access request within one month of receipt. This deadline can be extended by up to two further months as needed, having regard to the complexity and number of requests.
In normal circumstances, providing a timely and complete response to an access request can require significant resources and extensive record review. This is made all the more challenging when organisations that are not classified as "essential services" are working remotely or are closed, such that they do not have the same level of access to records, or the same ability to effectively and efficiently communicate with the relevant data custodians.
Although the DPC has confirmed that the one-month deadline cannot be changed as it is set down in law, it has pragmatically recognised that "unavoidable delays may arise as a direct result of the impacts of COVID-19."
Any organisation facing difficulties in processing access requests should consider the following key points from the DPC's recent guidance.
Engage with the Data Subject
Organisations should proactively engage with the requester to communicate the difficulties that they are experiencing and to keep them informed of how they are handling their request.
We would also suggest that organisations ask data subjects to specify the personal data that they would like to access if they did not provide this information in their original request. By asking data subjects to specify the relevant date ranges, types of record and subject matter that they are interested in, organisations can ensure that resources are appropriately allocated, while simultaneously providing the data subject with a meaningful and timely response.
Respond in Stages
Organisations should also consider if it is possible to respond to the request in part. For instance, if offices are temporarily closed, the request could be actioned insofar as certain data is available electronically. This can then be followed with hard copy data as soon as possible thereafter.
When an organisation receives a request, we would suggest that it quickly establishes its current capabilities and evaluates the progress that it can make in the coming days, weeks and months, before communicating its intentions to the requester. Given the ever-changing circumstances faced by organisations, we would caution against committing to definitive dates for a response.
To avoid a data breach, organisations should also ensure that they have the means to securely respond to an access request (e.g. by way of a password-protected electronic file, or by providing remote access to a secure system as expressly encouraged by Recital 63 of the GDPR), and that they have the correct email address of the requester, before issuing a copy of the requester's data. If a requester specifically asks for their data in hard copy, we would suggest doing so once this is possible, while sending an electronic copy in the interim with a reassurance that a hard copy will follow.
Unavoidable Delay
If offices are closed and the organisation has no means of accessing physical or electronic data relating to the request, it must be processed as soon as possible thereafter. In the event of any delays, organisations should ensure that they record the reasons for such delays, and that the individual is kept appropriately informed.
Helpfully, the DPC has confirmed that it will take into consideration any "organisation specific extenuating circumstances" if a complaint is brought to the DPC in respect of a data controller's response.
Under section 13 of the Freedom of Information Act 2014 (the "2014 Act"), FOI bodies are required to respond to FOI requests within 4 weeks of receiving such requests. In its recent guidance, the FOI Unit has made it clear that, notwithstanding the current challenges faced by FOI bodies, "a decision should issue within the statutory timeframes" as there is no scope for an extension under the 2014 Act due to office closures on health and safety grounds.
As it stands, an FOI body may only extend the response period by up to 4 weeks under section 14 of the 2014 Act if "compliance is not reasonably possible" due to the number of records to which the request relates, or where a number of similar requests have already been made in respect of which a decision has not yet been reached.
With that context, FOI bodies should be mindful of the following key points from the FOI Unit's guidance.
Monitoring Requests
Organisations must make arrangements to ensure that any requests received by email or post are appropriately monitored and actioned.
The FOI Unit has accepted that it could be argued that a request cannot be "received" by an FOI body in the event that postal collections and deliveries are suspended. However, it has encouraged FOI bodies to facilitate requests by electronic means. In this regard, FOI bodies should update their websites to inform requesters that all requests should be made by email to a specified email address, with a disclaimer (as appropriate) that its normal FOI services may be disrupted due to office closures, reduced staffing, remote working, the prioritisation of critical functions, etc.
Engaging with the Requester
If an FOI body can effectively process a request by way of remote working, the FOI body should issue a response within 4 weeks as normal. To the extent that any relevant information can be provided, FOI bodies should endeavour to provide it in the interests of avoiding any inconvenience to the requester. If it is not possible to access certain records, it should be made clear to the requester that certain searches were not conducted and an explanation should be provided.
Unlike the DPC, the FOI Unit has not endorsed the concept of a "partial" response, adopting an "all-or-nothing" approach. However, it has encouraged bodies to ask the requester to: (i) limit the scope of their request; (ii) or withdraw their request with an option to re-submit it at a later date.
As an independent appeals body, the Office of the Information Commissioner has not issued any guidance as to whether it will account for extenuating circumstances in considering any appeal in relation to a delayed or insufficient request. As such, FOI bodies must operate on the presumption that the same standards will continue to apply.
If All Else Fails, Refuse the Request?
Although FOI bodies cannot extend the deadline or provide a partial response to an FOI request, the FOI Unit has noted that requests may be refused on administrative grounds under section 15 of the 2014 Act.
Section 15(1)(a) provides that a request may be refused where "the record concerned does not exist or cannot be found after all reasonable steps to ascertain its whereabouts have been taken." The FOI Unit has indicated that limited access to records in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic may be considered in evaluating what steps are "reasonable" in the circumstances.
Section 15(1)(c) may also be pertinent for critical services organisations. It permits the refusal of a request where, "by reason of the number or nature of the records concerned or the nature of the information concerned," a response would cause "substantial and unreasonable interference with or disruption of work (including disruption of work in a particular functional area."
Given the relative inflexibility of the FOI regime, organisations should carefully balance the benefits and risks of: (i) negotiating the request; (ii) postponing the request; and (iii) refusing the request. Among other things, many bodies may want to avoid creating a backlog of requests, such that it would be advisable to action all requests to the greatest extent possible.
Where organisations are eager to accede to a request but are unable to do so within the usual timeframe, they may want to consider the merit of providing records on an entirely voluntary basis outside of the 2014 Act, in the interests of complying with the spirit of the legislation.

RIM's publisher, John Palumbo, reflects on our profile of "Caught in Providence" Judge Frank Caprio.
Well, the judge has been on the dais for many, many dinners as honoree and commentator. And, yes, we have occasionally had a nice chat on the deck of his oft-teeming restaurant, the Coast Guard House. Here, he greets patrons akin to the late PawSox owner Ben Mondor at McCoy, home of our soon-to-be former PawSox (albeit with a higher adult price of entry).
I have always loved the Aurora Club, the private lunch club on Federal Hill established by Italian-Americans in defiance of the then-exclusion from more traditional clubs on the East Side. When I finally applied to join, a screening lunch with Judge Caprio was the requisite gauntlet and justifiably so.
This past year, I attended the Columbus Day parade for the first time in a few years. The response from the Caprio division and from the Buddy-esque (the late Buddy Cianci, former mayor of Providence) crowd was identical. This eighty-something rock star kissed babies, posed for pictures and basked in well-earned adulation.
The first time I met the judge — on his terms — in his court, of course, I was busted for a traffic light photo. I went early on Friday morning and sat entertained and amazed at what was happening before me. After an hour, I was called to the bench. He peered over his glasses, "John?" "Yes, your honor," attempting to explain my appeal. "Stop, get the he — (heck) out of here," with the ever-present Judge Caprio smile.
Kudos to associate editor Jamie Coelho for this month's story about the judge, in her words "one of the nicest profiles I have ever written." I would still watch the traffic tickets in Providence, Jamie.
