Q: How To Have Multiple Login Page Styles In ASP.Net My site will have a few tools/sub-sites available for people to do different things.  I have one common Login UserControl that will be used so I am not really duplicating much.  But each of these sub-sites have their own MasterPage and thus styling.  There is only one User table in the database and there are Roles for which sub-site you can get to.  The Login UserControl will handle that.
Here is a simplized folder structure:
\Root
--> Images
--> Scripts
--> Styles
--> POHR
------> Login.aspx
------> PORHMasterPage
--> Beer
------> Login.aspx
------> BeerMasterPage
--> StatusUpdates
------> Login.aspx
------> StatusUpdatesMasterPage
Each of those Login Pages use the same Login UserControl which validates people and sets up a Cookie as see here:
public void LogUserIn(string EMailOrName, string Password) {
  DS.User u = DS.Common.ValidateUser(EMailOrName, Password);

  if (u != null) {
    FormsAuthenticationTicket ticket = new FormsAuthenticationTicket(
      1,
      u.FirstName + " " + u.LastName,
      DateTime.UtcNow,
      DateTime.UtcNow.AddMinutes(30),
      true,
      string.Format("UserID={0}|SiteID={1}", u.ID, SiteID)
    );
    string eTicket = FormsAuthentication.Encrypt(ticket);
    HttpCookie cookie = new HttpCookie(FormsAuthentication.FormsCookieName, eTicket);
    Response.Cookies.Add(cookie);

    string redirectUrl = FormsAuthentication.GetRedirectUrl(EMailOrName, true);
    Response.Redirect(redirectUrl);
  } // if they got authenticated
} // LogUserIn - Method

My issue is the FormsAuthentication.GetRedirectUrl.  It is returning /default.aspx.  I tried adding the following to the Web.config
<location path="~/StatusUpdates">
  <system.web>
    <authentication mode="Forms">
      <forms loginUrl="~/StatusUpdates/Login.aspx" defaultUrl="~/StatusUpdates/Dashboard.aspx" timeout="30" slidingExpiration="false" name="MGG_StatusUpdates" />
    </authentication>
  </system.web>
</location>

<location path="~/Beer">
  <system.web>
    <authentication mode="Forms">
      <forms loginUrl="~/Beer/Login.aspx" defaultUrl="~/Beer/Dashboard.aspx" timeout="30" slidingExpiration="false" name="MGG_Beer" />
    </authentication>
  </system.web>
</location>

I would expect a page the above defaultUrl values to be passed back based on where I am in the application.
My questions are... How can I get this to do what I want?  Do I need Web.config files in each of those folders, if so, what should they hold as well as what should the root's web.config file have.

Q: CSS parent and child selector correct syntax I've been seeing CSS like this lately:
1.
.header {
    position: relative;
    max-height: 1000px;
    z-index: 1;

    .sidebar{
        padding: 25px 25px;
    }

    .menu{

        border-radius:0;
        min-height: 30px;
        height:100px;

        i{
            color:#CCC !important;
            width:40px;
        }
    }
}

I guess header is the parent class and sidebar and menu are child classes of header.
Is this valid CSS syntax or good practice?
Usually I would expect CSS like this:
2.
.header { ... }
.header .sidebar { ... }
.header .menu { ... }

or even
3.
.header { ... }
.header > .sidebar { ... }
.header > .menu { ... }

What is the difference between these 3 cases?

A: The first one looks like it's SCSS or LESS (or some other CSS Pre-Processor) and not CSS, which render as the #2. To give you an idea of the difference between using > and not is:
.header .sidebar { ... }
.header .menu { ... }

Selects .sidebar and .menu anywhere inside .header.

The code works for both the cases above. While, if you use:
.header > .sidebar { ... }
.header > .menu { ... }

The above code will not the second one that's wrapped inside .wrap. The second code is a direct descendant or a direct child selector.

A: First structure is SCSS ( a css preprocessor ) . That's the difference between first and 2&3.

SCSS is a special type of file for SASS, a program written in Ruby that assembles CSS style sheets for a browser. SASS adds lots of additional functionality to CSS like variables, nesting and more which can make writing CSS easier and faster. SCSS files are processed by the server running a web app to output a traditional CSS that your browser can understand.

The difference between 2&3 is the use of > which means " direct child selector " . For example .header .sidebar will select all .sidebar that are inside .parent regardless if they are children or grandchildren etc.
 <parent>
   <child></child>
   <child>
      <grandchild></grandchild>
   </child>
 </parent>

So it will select child and grandchild and further down the tree.
Using > will only select the child not the grandchild

The Hub defines indicators for assessing the adoption of socially responsible practices by companies and advocates these indicator as standards for Indian Business Practice and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR).
These indicators inform broad strategy that cluster diverse programmes, such as the number and category of people being reached directly and indirectly by the programme.
Baseline Indicators document the current context, against which change can be measured over time. Baseline indicators inform initial strategic planning and are critical to analyse situational/contextual specificity during the initial stages of the initiative. Baselines include the initial set of indicators that help monitor progress against objectives. Baseline indicators provide powerful common platforms for rights holders to reflect on their current situation within the larger context and inform their participation in decision-making.
These are specific indicators agreed in a participatory manner with the stakeholders for specific programmes that support monitoring of progress in alignment with programme objectives. All programmes are required to develop indicators as part of their strategic planning with key stakeholders such as allies, partners or poor and excluded people at the outset of a programme. These indicators must be able to track and align with the rights framework at the local, national and international levels.
Aggregation of these specific, participatory indicators, to inform strategy, cannot be imposed. Insight for strategy emerges from appropriate triangulations.
Performance Indicators inform internal strategy and partnerships agreements. For specific programmes, these indicators will be developed with partners and communities collaboratively. For organisational objectives, these will address a range of roles including funding, finance, organisational culture and principled action.

To begin with, you have to make sure your desk drawer matches the task If man's spouses are all women, then your off ice drawers' partners are desks. Consequently, when you would like to buy a workplace , never forget that the fitting off ice drawer. That does not mean that you have to obtain a fresh workbench, however listen to this dining table that you simply use to do the job . Measure the height of this table foliage from a ground floor.

Next, ahead of buying a suitable french nightstands, make sure you decide to try it on a job of the dimension that satisfies your work desk. Choose office drawers that may make your eyes appear directly in the track display screen.
nbr007 is customarily made of wicker foundation or rattan. And a cushion is going to be placed towards the cap of the drawer. But nowadays, you are able to satisfy with some contemporary versions with the drawer after all. Light alloys, forests, and even plastics are the based stuff for the smaller nightstands. The newest invention in its material delivers cheap label and also more modern look. But, people still prefer to get the standard ones who still use rattan as its main substance. The standard of the drawer broadly speaking is contingent upon the craftsmanship. Additionally you have to give a careful care and care and so that the wicker isn't coming easily.
Putting classic furniture in your home will give the area attractiveness and prestige, particularly if the vintage furniture comes with an interesting history like the relics of the prior Dutch age, the relics of grandfather, also it is just one that exists from the world. No wonder the cost is very pricey. Because of the pricey price, there are some rogue sellers who turn ordinary furniture to antique furniture, so one is the nbr007. To choose a small white night stand, you also must know several things. As we understand, drawers are still probably one among the absolute most exposed delicate home appliances, and it is obviously occupied virtually every moment; point. Thus, it will be useful if you think the following hints which means that you won't be fooled when buying an drawer.
In the event you want nbr007 that do not just possess a special structure but also provide an additional element to make the most of its own function, possibly the trendy drawer layout in Massachusetts park may be used being an inspiration. Not only may it be used like a seat, but these small white night stand also have a curved'roof' over it which permits one to take refuge from rain or heat gutters. As if insufficient, the drawers have a lamp which may be changed at nighttime . With a creative design and so many functions, such a drawer will be a favourite location to unwind after a very long tiring moment.
Today, back in the right time of the Turkish empirebecause in the time the source of timber had been very limited, smaller nightstands applied hassocks, a form of traditional Turkish materials to get kneeling, covered by leather. Subsequently together with the job of their Greeks and Romans to Egypt and Turkey, this nbr007 were recognized as part of their idle drawer for Those emperors to unwind. The rolling of the time, the Ottomans turned out to be more widely known, that has been likewise popularized with the population of both England and the us. Home furniture designers continue to come up with their suggestions and create Ottomans as"mandatory gadgets" to accommodate drawers or sofas at the living room.


Oh, no its that time again.
Well, all the Valentine candy is on clearance, so goodbye to the sugar shock for another year.
So get used to the old green and black--it's here until October.
I was just getting used to the pink.
I ain't right in the head. I know.
So, another one joins the Pony squad. But I did think you'd make an effort for April Fool's Day.
Now that it's over, I admit I've never seen the show at all. I hear it's good, yeah, but frankly some of the crazy antics of fans have made me a little leery of it.
Not really a good excuse, I know, but I gotta filter stuff somehow.
I do think it's hilarious how one of my best friends has gone completely nuts over it, but his wife won't even watch it.
I've never seen MLP (as the fans call it) either, so I'm not judging anyone who watches it. I just happen to think it's curious (as do most people who've never seen it, and I daresay some who have) that so many adult males seem to like it. You're not in its target audience, Fritz, but you're certainly in what seems to be the key demographic.
When I was little, I used my pocket money to buy My Little Ponies second-hand from this wonderful used-and-new toyshop that closed down a long time ago, and took my childhood with it. But I had no idea at the time it was a TV show. Of course, that was back in the 80s, when possibly the show wasn't good enough to be such a man trap. Or perhaps it was - I wouldn't know. But I did once have the conversation every little girl has to put up with.
CHILD: It's My Little Pony.
ADULT: Oh, it's your little pony, is it?
Skip to the first two episodes of Season Two if you're a fan of Star Trek (particularly TNG) and zaniness, trust me, it's worth watching and you'll understand why very quickly. Then watch the first two episodes of Season One if you care to keep watching. It should all by up on YouTube because the Hub kind of realized the fans were driving a lot of their profits. Who has money to buy toys? Nerds have money to buy toys (mostly).
Anyway, to anybody who missed the fun last Monday, a taste of it here.
The board was basically the Valentine's Sugar Shock theme with that picture in the header.
October. The busy season if you're a Ghostbuster.
So time for the ol' orange to come out again and say "boo"
forgot where I was again. just like every year.
Back to the old green and black until Thanksgiving.


An Amber Alert was canceled minutes after being issued Friday, when police said four children missing from St. Paul were found safe and their father was arrested.
Chi Nu Xiong, 30, was taken into custody on suspicion of kidnapping and terroristic threats, said Steve Linders, a St. Paul police spokesman. He had made threats to his wife about harming the children, according to police.
Police were called about 2:15 p.m. Friday to a residence in the 1200 block of White Bear Avenue on a report of Xiong driving off in a minivan with four of his children, ages 5, 7, 8 and 9.
"After an exhaustive search for the suspect and his children, we issued an Amber Alert," Linders said.
At about 5 p.m., roughly the same time the alert was issued, a St. Paul police officer found Xiong and his four children in the 4000 block of Denton Way in Inver Grove Heights.
All four children appeared to be unharmed, but were checked out by medical personnel.

Know My Name
Miller, Chanel
Downloadable Audiobook - 2019 | eXpress Titles., Unabridged.
The riveting, powerful memoir of the woman whose statement to Brock Turner gave voice to millions of survivors She was known to the world as Emily Doe when she stunned millions with a letter. Brock Turner had been sentenced to just six months in county jail after he was found sexually assaulting her on Stanford's campus. Her victim impact statement was posted on BuzzFeed, where it instantly went viral—viewed by eleven million people within four days, it was translated globally and read on the floor of Congress; it inspired changes in California law and the recall of the judge in the case. Thousands wrote to say that she had given them the courage to share their own experiences of assault for the first time. Now she reclaims her identity to tell her story of trauma, transcendence, and the power of words. It was the perfect case, in many ways—there were eyewitnesses, Turner ran away, physical evidence was immediately secured. But her struggles with isolation and shame during the aftermath and the trial reveal the oppression victims face in even the best-case scenarios. Her story illuminates a culture biased to protect perpetrators, indicts a criminal justice system designed to fail the most vulnerable, and, ultimately, shines with the courage required to move through suffering and live a full and beautiful life. Know My Name will forever transform the way we think about sexual assault, challenging our beliefs about what is acceptable and speaking truth to the tumultuous reality of healing. It also introduces listeners to an extraordinary writer, one whose words have already changed our world. Entwining pain, resilience, and humor, this memoir will stand as a modern classic.

The summer heat is finally here. Living in Los Angeles, the summer heat doesn't get that bad, but when it does, it's just yuck. N and I went to a potluck barbecue yesterday, and I did not want to bring anything hot or anything that was supposed to be grilled. I wanted something cool and also healthy (since the other people at the potluck were rsvping "I'll bring dessert! Booze! Chips!"), so I volunteered a side dish.
Rather than a pasta salad, I opted for a cool quinoa salad. I usually eat quinoa warm, but room temperature or chilled quinoa is just as good (if not better!). To give it a kick, I added a curry vinaigrette. This is a pretty versatile salad, so feel free to swap out the garbanzo beans and squash for whatever you have in your house.
Cook quinoa, place in a bowl to cool. Slice and quarter the squash.
Put a pan on medium heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, add garlic and squash. Cook squash till soft, about 10 minutes.
While the squash is cooking, combine oil, vinegar, honey, curry powder salt in a small bowl for your vinaigrette.
Once squash is ready, add squash, garbanzo beans, and walnuts to the bowl with quinoa. Stir to combine. Once fully combined, stir in curry vinaigrette.
Serve immediately if you want it warm. If you want it cold, chill for an hour or two, then serve.
While I was growing up, my parents would occasionally imitate "dumb blondes" with something they had seen in a commercial or a joke they had heard. A waiter in a restaurant asks the blonde, "Red or white wine?" She replies, "Sure!" So she's either dumb or an alcoholic, or both.
This week, I planned on making salsa. The days are longer, the shorts have been unpacked, and the beautiful, fresh tomatoes are returning to the farmers' market. As I was walking up and down the market searching for jalapenos, I found tomatillos first. Later, I found the jalapenos. When I started pulling out my recipes, I noticed my favorite salsa recipe didn't have tomatillos in it. So should I make red or green salsa?
In a bowl, combine all ingredients. Refrigerate the salsa. The longer it sits, the more flavorful it gets!
Put all ingredients in a food processor and pulse to combine until coarse. Blend on low speed until a coarse puree is formed. Add more lime or salt if needed. Refrigerate.
Life has a way of making things interesting. When I started working on today's post, I had a completely different recipe in mind. I made it, tasted it, liked it, but not enough to share with all of you. It wasn't quite there yet, and I want to spend more time developing it and making it perfect.
So, I shifted gears and decide to feature what I had already planned to make for dinner tonight, which is stuffed pattypan squash with quinoa. I had some small pattypan squash in my CSA box waiting to be used, and I found some larger ones at the farmer's market. Stuffing some squash would be enough for me and N, right? Sure.
Wrong! I had bought too few squash and more filling then squash. The little pattypans that I gotten from my CSA box were better as appetizers or sides rather than the dinner I had planned. When I was growing up, there was a segment on Bill Nye the Science Guy called "Did You Know That…?" And it always ended with "Now you know." Yes, now I very much know.
Slice off the stem on the pattypan. Take a melon baller, measuring spoon, or small spoon (depending on the size of your squash) and scoop out the insides, much like you would a pumpkin at Halloween. Keep 1/2 cup of squash insides and discard the rest and the seeds. Place the pattypan squash on the baking sheet.
Heat oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic and cook until softened. Stir in cumin and oregano and cook for about a minute. Add reserved squash insides, tomato, and corn and saute. Then stir in water, quinoa, chipotle pepper, and adobo sauce . Continue to cook on medium-high heat until most of the liquid has evaporated. Remove from heat and add salt and pepper to taste.
Put filling inside the squash and top with queso fresco. Bake for 20 minutes or until squash is tender.
I hated egg salad sandwiches as a kid. Every few months or so, my dad would make egg salad sandwiches for lunch. While my dad, mom and brother ate them, I ate something else. Thinking back on it, I'm not even sure why I didn't like them. Maybe the texture? I wasn't a huge mayo fan? I don't really know.
Growing up, I also didn't like avocados. I didn't hold hatred in my heart for it like egg salad, but I would pass if it was offered. My mom would often just put it on toast with some butter and happily eat away while I looked at her, bewildered. When I moved out to LA and met N, I gave avocados another try. I also started eating sushi (sushi in the midwest is questionable, at best) and California rolls were brimming with avocado.
Egg salad came back into my life more recently. N made an egg salad sandwich for himself a few months ago and offered me a bite. It actually wasn't that bad! I'm still not a huge mayo fan, but I liked it!
Later I started noticing the variations people were making on classic sandwiches. Different breads, fancier cheeses, spicier mayo, pickled vegetables. Egg salad was not immune to the variations. Someone suggested swapping out the mayo in the egg salad for avocado, making the fat healthier and just as delicious. I was intrigued. The next time we had avocados I tried it. And it was heaven! The two things I had truly despised as a kid had come together to form a gloriously rich and mouthwatering combination. Who would have thought?
In a medium bowl, place hardboiled eggs and cubed avocado. Break up the hardboiled eggs with a fork and mash in the avocados until the egg and avocados are fully incorporated. Add lemon juice, chili powder, and salt and pepper.
To make Sriracha mayo, whisk mayo and Sriracha together.
Toast sandwich bread. Spread mayo on bread, add lettuce and top with huevocado mixture.

3 strategies for winning in location marketing
The promise of location-based marketing is real. But before you jump headlong into the practice, it pays to consider three critical factors, according to Amobee's Carl Nawagamuwa.
Like magpies, humans have it in their nature to be drawn to shiny things. And so we see the current obsession of our industry on the new platforms, tech stacks and proprietary algorithms that form the 'pipes' that service the digital advertising ecosystem. However, I would argue our attentions are misplaced. Whilst the pipes are admittedly exciting and game changing, we shouldn't lose sight of the fact that there's a person at the end of it all, a human being made of flesh and bone, who lives in the real world and has real-world behaviours.
The proliferation of mobile phones and the subsequent explosion of location data facilitate the first genuine opportunity to understand these real-world behaviours. It's this confluence of digital and physical that will not only revolutionise audience insight but also measurement. Much has been said about the increasing irrelevancy of the click, which many believe has overstayed its welcome as a measurement metric. Verified and accurate location data at scale provides a fresh perspective. What brand would obsess about clicks when it could understand the profile of visitors to its stores and see how footfall increased and changed as a result of advertising?
Like most things in adtech, it pays to do some digging to get past the sales spin surrounding location marketing, of which there is plenty right now. It's important to uncover the nuts and bolts reality of the data being used and the technology that is producing/processing it.
Here are three key considerations when looking to win in location marketing.
Not all location data is created equal
The vast majority of location data available in digital advertising exchanges has questionable accuracy. Due to the premium value placed on location inventory, publishers are motivated to ensure their ad impression includes location data.
However not all location data is created equally, so it is critical to know exactly what data is being used to define location. Much of the available location data on the market is ultimately a compromise between accuracy and scale. At one end of the spectrum there is IP data: huge scale, readily accessible through a multitude of avenues, but highly questionable in accuracy due to the ability to mask and change IP addresses very easily. Anyone who has used a VPN knows this only too well.
At the other end of the spectrum, beacon technology has pinpoint accuracy but has specific dependencies from users in order to activate it. GPS/Wi-Fi data also offers good accuracy but only if both are enabled on the device and the data is verified.
Exclusive access to operator data offers both pinpoint accuracy and scale. Cell-tower data provides a constant stream of anonymised and permission-based location events without reliance on device enablement or verification. Operator data (which includes location and web/call usage) is deterministic—it requires no probabilistic modelling. It therefore provides the truest understanding of consumers and their real-world behaviours. Utilisation of other data sources will mean a tradeoff in either accuracy or scale.
Don't chase me, know me
The explosion of location data has thankfully swept away the antiquated methods of surveys and census data to give invaluable real-time insight into consumers' real-world actions. However, the key is to resist the temptation of jumping in head first, and instead take time to understand the implications of what the data is telling us before we act.
Consider a shopping mall that has to compete aggressively for share of mind and wallet. Rich location data (particularly operator-sourced) that informs targeted, location-based advertising can give this mall a real competitive edge. Visitor footfall analysis may reveal that times of peak visitation do not correlate with times of peak sales, and this could then inform better moments for experiential campaigns.
Socio-demographic profiling of visitors could identify that students, rather than those of working age, favour the mall during weekday evenings, allowing for tailored promotions to appeal to this audience. Home/work/hangout analysis of visitors could show people will travel no more than 5 km to the mall, but 8 km to restaurants/entertainment, helping the mall tailor its non-retail offerings and advertising creative.
Future of measurement
The opportunity for mobile phones and the data they create to fundamentally change advertising measurement should not be underestimated. No other device bridges the gap between the digital and physical worlds, considering the majority of sales still occur in bricks-and mortar stores, location data now allows brands to measure the impact of their advertising on in-store footfall. Taking that one step further, if connected to the brands sales/CRM systems, attribution to sales uplift becomes a reality and a very exciting prospect.
For example, in a recent campaign with a QSR advertiser in Singapore, we were able to prove that dynamic mobile ads (with store name and distance included) activated once a user entered a geofence delivered 123 percent more store visits versus a generic ad served without the geofence. For brands operating in a competitive and cost-controlled advertising climate, proving tangible ROI like in-store footfall is incredibly powerful and a huge validation for the medium.
The future is bright for location marketing, and the promise is real. Be certain to get under the skin of the data and technology that forms the ecosystem, but also really embrace the opportunity to understand your audience as real people. As the capabilities and technology continue to evolve, the right location data and advertising will increasingly deliver smarter campaigns and smarter measurement, the likes of which the industry has not seen before.

Women to Watch 2021: Charlene Ree, EternityX ...


Researchers, Professor Adam Ockelford, Dr Fiona Costa, Catlin Shanghnessya PhD student and 'savant' pianist Derek Paravacini are leading this innovative project with residents from Chelsea Court Place. The weekly, 45 minute sessions include a repertoire of familiar songs (requested by the audience) and proceed into a series of micro- songs; short rhythmic melodies associated with key functional language. Such micro-songs have been successfully used with children and young people with complex needs to scaffold or substitute language but no research has been conducted to understand the extent to which this happens.
• Almost all the participants were able to learn the new songs and sing them following demonstrations by the research team.
• The songs were recalled initially over a period of a week, a month, and then three months (with no exposure between times).
• Contrary to the initial concerns of the research team, they were not interpreted as patronising, but engaging and fun. It appeared that, once they were familiar, the participants did not distinguish between the songs they had known for many years and the new ones.
There are increasing numbers of people with dementia in the UK. Current estimates by the Alzheimer's Society suggest that there are as many as 850,000. This number is expected to rise to over one million by 2025 and to two million by 2051.
A cure for dementia is still a long way off. It is therefore imperative to find ways of improving the quality of life of those with the disease. To this end, several health bodies have recommended the development of non-pharmacological approaches to care. One such approach is the use of music. Various research studies have shown that participatory music programmes can regulate symptoms of anxiety and depression, reduce agitation and aggression, facilitate social interaction, retain memory and improve general wellbeing.
One of the most debilitating symptoms of dementia is a decline in the capacity to speak. This leads to social isolation, a loss of a sense of time and place, and a reduced capacity to make choices. However, it appears that many musical abilities and memories remain intact during the course of the disease. This raises the possibility that music can be used to rekindle and sustain verbal communication – an idea that was the main focus of the 'MIND: Phase 2' study.
For 10 months, the research team led weekly music sessions with two groups of people with moderate to severe dementia, all in residential care. Each session was preceded with 45 minutes of singing, using preferred music from the participants' teens and twenties. This was in itself a positive experience. Almost all joined in the singing and were invariably able to recall at least some of the lyrics, thereby accessing language that was normally unavailable to them.
Following the large-group session, further, smaller groups were engaged in singing for a further 45 minutes, using, within the preferred pieces, specially composed 'micro-songs'. These set everyday words and phrases to simple tunes as shown below.
These songs, each very simple in content, were relevant to the participant's lives, and a way for them to navigate their social environments. Taking part raised their confidence in their ability to sing and in their memory, often accessing language that was no longer part of their day-to-day vocabulary. The wider effects, such as improved social interaction with other residents and increased self-awareness were, even if short-term, of benefit to them.
It is hoped to initiate a further project that will embed the materials in the daily lives of participants, enabling them to express their feelings and communicate their wishes and needs for a longer period than would normally be the case in the course of the disease.
Professor Adam Ockelford comments: "Beyond Words hopes to see successful results showing an improvement in sustained use of language for participants and ultimately offering them an improved quality of life. Evidence has so far suggested that music has a powerful role to play in communication with individuals who have complex needs and we are very proud to be working with the Chelsea Court Place team and residents to investigate and hopefully prove the theory."
Christine Valentine-Bunce, Head of Commissioning and Operations at Chelsea Court Place adds: "Music is very powerful and evocative and the sheer joy experienced by our residents in the Beyond Words sessions is remarkable. We have been very impressed with the way in which our residents have embraced the weekly sessions and are very excited about seeing the results."
Derek Paravacini is a world-renowned 'savant' pianist who is working with the University of Roehampton on a ground-breaking research project "Beyond Words" at Chelsea Court Place.
Derek first shot to fame when he was just nine years old, playing jazz with the Royal Philharmonic Pops Orchestra at the Barbican Centre in London. Numerous television appearances followed in the UK and overseas. In the last few years, Derek featured in the series Extraordinary People (Channel 5, UK), and on BBC1, BBC2 and ITV and he has appeared in documentaries in Japan, Germany, Australia and the USA.
Derek has given concerts in venues across England, in Europe and the USA; among them, Ronnie Scott's renowned jazz club, the Mandalay Bay Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada and in Phoenix, Arizona, for Mohammad Ali. He has performed twice at Buckingham Palace. In 2012, Derek played 'Rhapsody in Blue' and a new piano concerto written specially for him with the Orchestra of St John's in London's Queen Elizabeth Hall.
There is no doubt that Derek is one of the most extraordinary pianists and musical entertainers of his generation. Yet he is blind, autistic and has severe learning difficulties. Dubbed 'The Human iPod' in the USA, Derek has a repertoire of tens of thousands of pieces.

John appeared in this highly successful program for over six years, and was awarded his first gold record at the age of eleven!
As an adult, John became a star of musical theatre across 3 continents with lead roles in some of the greatest musicals. He is best known for his portrayal of "Raoul" – the romantic lead in Andrew Lloyd Webber's mega-hit musical The Phantom of the Opera – a role he played over 2000 times. Other musical theatre credits include Cats, Hello Dolly, A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum, and The Peter Allen Songbook.
John has also worked as a television producer and presenter and was awarded the MO Award for "Best Male Cabaret Performer" in Australia. He also just completed a tour in Singapore and Hong Kong having directed his first musical theatre production.

If your business plan for 2017 involves improving client retention or adding new clients, then it's likely that you'll be expecting to dedicate some resource to your marketing. But what should you do? What will get you the best returns? What still works and what is old hat?
As we help our own clients to plan for 2017, here are just a few of the priorities we're asking them to focus on.
If you use a telemarketing firm to generate leads for your business then make this year the year you give at least a little bit of the budget to something else. With the mooted ban around pension cold calling likely to come into effect at some point soon, the options in this area are likely to dwindle anyway. See this as your opportunity to make a fresh break ahead of other firms.
Advertising on Facebook, for example, can produce definitive returns. Lead Generation adverts capture the details users have already given to Facebook, thus negating the need to send people to a page on your website. They're proven to be effective too. Just this week we set a campaign live for a client. For a relatively small expenditure, it returned 16 leads on the first day alone.
Without a doubt, some of the best marketing we do and see happens for firms who have a really well-defined target market. Don't settle for the old 'we target high net worth clients'. Build a picture of exactly what these high net worth clients do, what their challenges and goals are and how you can help them.
While The ultimate guide to a successful retirement is a piece of collateral that may well attract some leads for you,The ultimate retirement guide for doctors, placed in front of doctors alone, is likely to attract many more.
An external partner or an internal marketer can help to boost your marketing. Even if you have both of those things, though, there's no substitute for upskilling a little bit.
Some good reading is a fair place to start. Try regularly checking the Moz Blog, the HubSpot blog or even our own marketing blog.
Learning a bit more about Google Analytics is another good action point. Learning about benchmarks in categories like conversion rates and bounce rates can help you to judge how well your site is performing and to identify where you need some help. Better yet: it will help you to evaluate your internal or external marketing resource. How well are they doing and where could they improve?
Any marketer worth their salt would welcome this kind of knowledgeable feedback and idea creation, so make 2017 the year that you can give it to them.

Q: Search Xpath with its value in XML Documents and Get Document URI From Marklogic I have XML stored in MarkLogic as mentioned below
<testData>
  <datatypes>
    <datatypename>datatypename1</datatypename>
    <datatype>datatype1</datatype>
  </datatypes>
  <datavalue>
    code1
    <value>value1</value>
  </datavalue>
  <datavalue>
    code2
    <value>value2</value>
  </datavalue>
  <datavalue>
    code3
    <value>value3</value>
  </datavalue>
</testData>

and there is Possibility that Above values and document structure may Appear in another XML but with different URI.
So My Requirement is,  I need all the document URIs from the MarkLogic which contains /testData/datatypes/datatypename as exact xpath and its exact value as datatypename1

A: The most straightforward approach is to create a path range index on /testData/datatypes/datatypename and use a path range query:
cts:path-range-query("/testData/datatypes/datatypename", "=", "datatypename1")

An alternative is to use a values query within scoping element queries:
cts:element-query(xs:QName("testData"),
  cts:element-query(xs:QName("datatypes"),
    cts:element-value-query(xs:QName("datatypename"), "datatypename1")))

This approach is more susceptible to false positives. For small candidate result sets, such false positives can be mitigated by filtering.
For large candidate results sets, positional false positives (such as a document that has testData/datatypes and datatypes/datatypename but not testData/datatypes/datatypename) can be eliminated by indexing element positions. When punctuation is distinctive for the match, tokenization of the value will also produce false positives. In such cases, path range indexes are the correct solution for large candidate result sets.

Q: Spring boot creates List out of multiple boolean fields I am trying to store a class named Project with the following attributes:
@Entity
public class Project implements Serializable {
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
    private Long id;

    // Some more attributes...

    @OneToOne(cascade = CascadeType.ALL)
    @JoinColumn(name = "projectServices_id", referencedColumnName = "id")
    private ProjectServices projectServices;

    @OneToOne(cascade = CascadeType.ALL)
    @JoinColumn(name = "projectCategories_id", referencedColumnName = "id")
    private ProjectCategories projectCategories;

    // Constructors

    // Getters and Setters
}

The projectCategories and projectServices look very similar, because they both only store lots of boolean variables.
They do look something like this:
@Entity
public class ProjectCategories implements Serializable {
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
    @JsonIgnore
    private Long id;

    @JsonIgnore
    @OneToOne(mappedBy = "projectCategories", cascade = CascadeType.ALL)
    private Project project;

    private boolean category0;
    // Categories 1 - 244
    private boolean category245;

    // Constructors

    // Getters and Setters

    @JsonIgnore
    @IgnoreForBinding
    public List<Boolean> getBooleanData() {
        List<Boolean> data = new ArrayList<Boolean>();
        Field[] fields = this.getClass().getDeclaredFields();
        for (Field field : fields) {
            try {
                if (field.getType() == boolean.class) {
                    data.add((Boolean) field.get(this));
                }
            } catch (Exception ignored) {
            }

        }
        return data;
    }

    @JsonIgnore
    @IgnoreForBinding
    public void setBooleanData(List<Boolean> data) {
        Field[] fields = this.getClass().getDeclaredFields();
        for (Field field : fields) {
            try {
                if (field.getType() == boolean.class && !data.isEmpty()) {
                    field.setAccessible(true);
                    boolean a = data.get(0);
                    //Boolean a = Boolean.valueOf();
                    field.setBoolean(this, a);
                    data.remove(0);
                } else if (field.getType() == boolean.class) {
                    field.setBoolean(this, false);
                }
            } catch (Exception ignored) {
            }
        }

    }
}

Problem: When I want to send a Project to the frontend it creates a JSON Object with a List of booleans for the type ProjectServices and a Object for the type ProjectCategories. I want both of them to be a List of booleans.
The two classes ProjectServices and ProjectCategories are basically the same and one could argue to simply use the one which is converted to a List of booleans, but the structure of both of the classes will change in the future. Therefore simply using one class is not the desired solution.
Thank you for your help!
Cheers, nicklas

A: So, @PeterMmm was right. Using DTOs did solve the problem and is the correct way to do it.
Another workaround was using an additional getter which returns the List and use @JsonIgnore on the actual getter.

Head of Airbus' UK operation joins other businesses in warning against Britain leaving the EU
LONDON – The head of the U.K. arm of Airbus has warned the aerospace company would reconsider its investments in Britain should the country vote to leave the European Union.
Paul Kahn has joined several prominent business leaders in expressing concern about the promised referendum on EU membership. Prime Minister David Cameron has vowed to hold such a vote by the end of 2017 — after he has tried to negotiate reforms with the 28-member bloc.
Business leaders are starting to make their views known, mindful of consequences that a so-called "Brexit" would bring.
Kahn says that should Britain vote to leave, Airbus would reconsider future investment if business conditions were more favorable in other parts of Europe.
Airbus also has European operations in France, Germany and Spain.

David Mickey Evans
The story begins as Richard Newton, his wife Beth, daughter Sara and son Brennan prepare for a cross-country drive to a family reunion. For Richard, it's a dream vacation. For his family, it's boredom on wheels - until the appearance of a surprise passenger: the huge, rollicking, slobbering, lovable dog, Beethoven. Richard has promised to take Beethoven to the reunion and deliver him to his owner, Richard's brother. Beth and Brennan are less than thrilled with this news, especially when the excitable Beethoven unleashes a string of canine calamities! But when two bumbling thieves threaten the safety of the Newtons, it's Beethoven who sets out to put the bite on the bad guys and forever win a place in his new family's hearts.

David Bowie breaks Vevo record with 51 million video views in 24 hours
By Janko Roettgers | Variety
Rock legend David Bowie dead at age 69
Bowie loses battle with cancer
David Bowie's passing earlier this week caused a spike in demand for his music — and at Vevo, Bowie even broke a record: Bowie's music videos were watched more than 51 million times on January 11, which is more views than any other artist ever got on Vevo on a single day.
The previous record was held by Adele, whose smash hit "Hello" accumulated 36 million views on its premiere date last October. Bowie's music saw a 5,198 percent spike in views Monday over the average during the prior week, according to data released by Vevo Thursday.
The music video platform currently has more than 60 of Bowie's videos in its catalog. Most of the views likely came from YouTube, where Vevo continues to be the biggest supplier of major label music videos. Vevo has also started to distribute its music videos on other platforms, including its own website and apps. The company is looking to put a bigger emphasis on those owned-and-operated platforms in 2016, and recently launched a revamped iOS app to compete more directly with YouTube on iPhones.

Deputy Prime Minister Bill English has been cleared of any wrongdoing over his accommodation allowances.
The Office of the Auditor-General says it will not investigate any further and no independent inquiry into the parliamentary system for allowances is required.
Mr English, who is also Finance Minister, came under fire earlier this year when it was revealed he received about $900 a week in accommodation expenses for a Wellington property owned by his family trust.
Mr English has since paid back about $32,000 and is no longer claiming any housing allowance. His electorate is Clutha-Southland and he also has a house in Dipton.
Progressive Party leader Jim Anderton sought clarification as to whether Mr English can rightfully claim Dipton as his place of residence.
But the Office of the Auditor-General says Mr English has completed the required paperwork which has been approved by the Parliamentary Service and successive Speakers of the House.
It did, however, find that Mr English has an indirect financial interest in the trust which owns his Wellington home.
The office urges that a current review of MPs' allowances be carried out such in a way that any future system works in conjunction with the one covering ministerial housing.
Mr English told Checkpoint the Auditor-General's decision puts an end to questions about his allowances and he is pleased with the result.
However, he admits a clearer definition of what a primary place of residence is would be a good idea and says that, no doubt, people will still question his judgement.
"The Auditor-General report shows I was open about my situation, that I got advice from credible people - in fact, the people who look after the Register of Pecuniary Interests for Members of Parliament.
"I followed that advice. That proved not to be sustainable, so I paid the money back.
"I stand by the decisions I made to keep my family together. It's quite a challenge to be a senior politician and a father, but I'm pleased about the decisions we've made."
The Speaker of the House says he will use the finding of the Auditor-General's report to develop a better parliamentary system for allowances and provide certainty to the public that the system is fair.
Lockwood Smith says as Speaker he inherited a range of practices that were mostly appropriate and sensible, but are based on rules that are not clear.
Dr Smith says it is important there is a system that is fair for MPs and recognises that many maintain two homes, particularly those who service their electorate from their home outside Wellington.
The Parliamentary Service has released a statement saying it is preparing policy advice for the Speaker to clarify when MPs can be reimbursed for their Wellington accommodation costs.

The annual BA Fashion press show presented 41 BA Fashion students' final collections and marked Willie Walters' last graduate show as Programme Director after twenty-four years at the College.
Fashion is a fast moving and highly diverse international industry encompassing a wide range of markets and creative, production and communication practices. It also has historical and social significance for our understanding of some of the important values underpinning our culture.
Recognition of this diversity and cultural meaning is central to the degree course's rationale and structure. By helping you develop appropriate intellectual and practical skills, BA Fashion enables you to benefit from such diversity and to rise to the challenges it presents.
This course is part of the Fashion programme. The degree course's philosophy is to create a learning environment in which innovation and originality are nurtured within a range of different but closely related pathways. We aim to produce versatile fashion specialists able to solve problems creatively while drawing on a deep knowledge of their chosen fields and a critical understanding of the social, economic and cultural factors influencing their professional environment.
The BA Fashion curriculum is flexible, providing excellent scope for networking with the fashion industry. Active learning through project-based enquiry is a cornerstone.

Britain has an outstanding international reputation for design in knitwear thanks to our historical position at the centre of the wool trade. This sector has grown from traditional quality and craft styles to encompass high fashion, cut and sew jersey, stretch and bodywear. Today, knitwear is created and marketed worldwide, whether through multinationals or designer-makers. This pathway aims to familiarise you with knitwear processes and the impact of world fibre resources on the sector.
This pathway differs from some knitwear courses in that it is taught in collaboration with other fashion disciplines across womenswear and menswear. Understanding of mainstream fashion remains central to your development. You'll undertake a range of activities alongside your peers in an atmosphere of creative cross-fertilisation. Team projects with other pathways and external assignments allow you to negotiate and share design solutions as in the professional workplace. Illustration, business and cultural studies, field trips, trade shows and collection visits are integrated with other pathways.
Though primarily fashion and design oriented, the pathway is strongly underpinned by technical ability. You'll become conversant with the wide variety of techniques and fibres that can be used to create distinctive knitwear and jersey fashion. By designing and making in a variety of styles culminating in a collection, you'll learn to specify for sewing and finishing equipment, graduating with a fully informed appreciation of this market.
This stage carries you deeper into your pathway, allowing you to develop a variety of approaches through individual and often experimental responses while acquiring the discipline demanded by professional practice. Through a combination of studio work, formal tutorial guidance, seminars, lectures, external projects, competitions, critiques, personal research, independent study and team projects, you'll explore the breadth of your subjects and develop your individual talents in relation to them. During this stage you'll benefit from the learning experience gained from helping our final year students prepare work for the degree shows.
In the summer term you complete your degree work for examination. As part of this process design pathway students participate in an assessment presentation of collections, normally in the form of a fashion show. You'll also show work in a degree examination exhibition.
Recent client projects in the Fashion programme include: H&M | Diadora | Pringle | Umbria Cashmere | Philips | Derry - City of Culture 2013 | Dr Martens | Dyloan | Bally | Italian Trade Commission | British Horseracing Authority.
IELTS level 6.0 or above, with at least 5.5 in reading, writing, listening and speaking (please check our main English Language requirements webpage).
Provide evidence of intellectual enquiry within their work.
Evidence your ability to critically reflect on and evaluate your achievements.
Identify social and/or cultural influences on their work.
Discuss their work in individual and group situations.

I absolutely love hearing from readers and finding out what ideas, tips and routines you guys have implemented into your home and life. I was lucky enough to receive an email from Nicole who was happy to share some of her storage and organisation ideas. She implemented some ideas from my site, but also came up with a few ideas of her own. She has recently finished a major extension on her home and is since spending her spare time organising various spaces. Enjoy this reader's organised space and I hope you can draw some inspiration from her excellent concepts.
I found some old frames from around the house as well as buying a few pretty baroque ones from Spotlight and spray painted them all a teal colour. This post from The Caterpillar Years was my inspiration (find it here) and I pretty much followed the same process, using hot melt glue to attach strong fishing line with mini wooden pegs to hold the artworks. I've used some 3M picture hanging strips to attach each of the frames to the wall (awesome for being able to get the frame exactly where I wanted it with no holes in the wall).
Another project that I did a few weeks ago was our Lego storage. We had one of those under bed storage tubs with all the Lego pieces mixed in, so I grabbed some clear containers I had bought from Kmart (intended for craft storage). I had a set of 10 containers plus a few extras (they are all the Kmart home brand) and they fit perfectly inside the under bed storage tub so I have one container for each colour plus a few extras for leaves, people, flowers, and special pieces. The bigger base pieces fit along the side too. Now when the kids want to create, they can easily find the pieces they want. Hopefully they will also be able to put them away in the right boxes too!
I've used a variety of Kmart storage boxes to organise my laundry cupboard – I added some labels so that we can easily find the right box, and the shelves are adjustable so I was able to get the boxes to fit well in each shelf. I've included photos of the other half of the cupboard as well where I store my ironing board, broom, etc.
One of my biggest projects so far was the cupboard under our stairs. In the last week of January when the kids were heading back to school I decided to add cube storage shelves to keep their bags and shoes tidy and I'm really happy with the result. I saw some shelves just like this on your blog when I was looking for inspiration. Most of the cube shelves came from Bunnings but I wanted to use a step effect to follow the diagonal line of the stairs so I also bought a 'ladder' cube shelf from Super Amart to fit the space. I've added some fabric boxes to some of the cubes – the 3 kids have two shoe boxes each under their school bags and there are extra boxes for hats, winter woolies, and other bits and pieces. I've used the far bottom two cubes for wine storage and I'm also going to use a few cubes to store my filing system. This set up has really improved the usefulness of this storage space and I'm so happy with the end result.
I've attached a hair dryer and hair straightener holder with the included suction caps on the inside of the cupboard door, and they fit perfectly. Now my dryer and straightener are in easy reach, and aren't taking up valuable cupboard space. I bought these both from Kmart for $5 each so its a really cheap storage solution and so far the suction caps are holding up well. They are available here.
Please feel free to share some of your own ideas and photos to my email: kat@theorganisedhousewife.com.au. I would love to hear from you!
I hope you were inspired by Nicole's ideas.
Your art gallery wall is SO ADORABLE!!! Great job!!!

Q: Gson Serializing the Integer object I'm generating JSON using the Gson library. I'm attempting to generate JSON like:
{"Plaintext":{"type":"List","value":["1","2","3","4"]},"SINGLE_FUNCTION":{"value":"1"},"IN_FLOW":{"value":10}}

However, the JSON that is appearing is..
{"Plaintext":{"type":"List","value":["1","2","3","4"]},"SINGLE_FUNCTION":{"value":"1"},"IN_FLOW":{"value":{"value":10}}}

The problem, I found is that when my objects are being created, an Integer object is being stored. This is because of the type of the mapping is Object, which means the int type that I'm storing is automatically wrapped to type Integer and Gson is rendering the only non-null value, value inside the Integer class.
My question is, is there a way of having Gson render an Integer object as if it were a primitive type int?
Edit
So, The whole JSON is a Map. This Map is defined as:
private Map<String, ParameterWrapper> parameterMap;

The class ParameterWrapper looks like this:
public class ParameterWrapper<T> {

    private String type;

    private T value;

    public ParameterWrapper(String type, T value) {
        this.type = type;
        this.value = value;
    }

    public String getType() {
        return type;
    }

    public void setType(String type) {
        this.type = type;
    }

    public T getValue() {
        return value;
    }

    public void setValue(T value) {
        this.value = value;
    }
}

I suspect that because I'm not specifying a type T for ParameterWrapper, it's defaulting to Object, which is why Gson is outputting it as an Object and not an int, despite it being an instance of Integer.

A: This sample code (with lombok @Data and guava Lists):
package so28235867;

import com.google.common.collect.Lists;
import com.google.gson.Gson;
import lombok.Data;

import java.util.List;

public class Foo {

    public static void main(final String[] args) {
        final Root root = Root.of(Plaintext.of("List", Lists.newArrayList("1", "2", "3", "4")), new Value<String>("1"), new Value<Integer>(10));
        System.out.println(new Gson().toJson(root));
    }

    @Data(staticConstructor = "of")
    // TODO: tweak JSON serialisation to respect naming convention
    static class Root {
        private final Plaintext Plaintext;
        private final Value<String> SINGLE_FUNCTION;
        private final Value<Integer> IN_FLOW;
    }

    @Data(staticConstructor = "of")
    static class Plaintext {
        private final String type;
        private final List<String> value;
    }

    @Data
    static class Value<T> {
        private final T value;
    }
}

outputs:
{"Plaintext":{"type":"List","value":["1","2","3","4"]},"SINGLE_FUNCTION":{"value":"1"},"IN_FLOW":{"value":10}}

And that looks like what you want. So you probably have an error in the definition of your object hierarchy.

A:
My question is, is there a way of having Gson render an Integer object as if it were a primitive type int?

You can manually add the IN_FLOW (or any primitive) value as Integer primitive value.
jsonObject.add("IN_FLOW",new JsonPrimitive(obj.getInFlow()));

A: Change this,
public T getValue() {
    return value;
}

to,
public T getValue() {
    if( value instanceOf Integer ) {
        return value.intValue();
    }
    return value;
}

The pictures
[Episode 7 | 1948 : Jen]
Jen and her friends are at the 'pictures' watching a newsreel that includes an announcement of the birth of Prince Charles. In the cinema foyer the girls steal a movie poster of Prince Philip, the husband of Princess Elizabeth (who would later become Queen Elizabeth II). The girls discuss the importance of 'handsomeness' and Jen tells them the prince looks like her father, who died in the war.
Activity 1: Talkies
Subtheme(s): Australians at war; Entertainment and games; Inventions and electronic media
During the Second World War, Australians went to the cinema for recreation, information on world events and, for some, an escape from the realities of life during wartime. Newsreels depicted the British royal family, Hollywood stars and war heroes, and significant events. The Australian government used the cinema to promote propaganda about the war.
Cinesound was the most successful Australian studio during this era. It produced a number of Australian feature films, including a series of films based on Steele Rudd's 'Dad and Dave' characters, as well as newsreels and documentary films. In 1943, Cinesound's documentary Kokoda Front Line! won Australia's first Academy Award.
As a class, discuss the favourite types of films available in Australian cinemas in the 1940s. This discussion should highlight the fact that the majority of films screened at this time were imported from Britain or the USA.
Students could research the names of the most popular films of this era to make a class list. They should try to find films from different categories: drama, comedy, documentary, etc. Divide the list into three columns to identify if they were produced in Australia, the United States or Britain.
The class should also list famous actors associated with each film.
You could refer to the following link at australianscreen, 'Australian film and television chronology – The 1940s', http://aso.gov.au/chronology/1940s/
Following their research of films screened during 1948, ask students to create a movie guide for a local cinema from the time. They could make a pamphlet with the movie programme and a short description of each film to be shown. The guide could also include images from some of the movie posters of that era.
As a comparative activity, students could look at movie guides available today in the local newspaper. They could assess the differences between their 1948 cinema guide and a cinema guide today.
Refer to Screen Australia Digital Learning for further resources for this activity, http://www.screenaustralia.gov.au/learning/
Student Activity Sheet H7.1: Create a 1948 movie guide
Activity 2: The movie poster
Subtheme(s): Art, music and literature; Entertainment and games; Historical events
In this episode, Jen and her girlfriends are infatuated with the movie stars of the era, leading them to take a movie poster from the local cinema. Movie posters in the 1940s were large and glossy, depicting fabulous portraits of lead actors.
You could obtain some sample movie posters from your local cinema or from the local library and display them in the classroom.
As a class, brainstorm ideas about what makes a movie poster appealing. Discuss the layout, images, text, graphics and artwork style associated with movie posters.
Discuss how effectively the posters you have displayed advertise the film. What are some of the advertising techniques used? Ask the students to evaluate how successful each poster is in advertising the movie.
Ask students to make a movie poster that represents a movie from the 1940s. They should consider the layout, images, text, graphics and style of artwork. After planning the design of their poster, they could use a large poster-sized A2 card to lay out their design elements. To help with ideas, provide students with samples of posters and obtain images from the 'Stills gallery' on the My Place for teachers website.
Student Activity Sheet H7.2: Make a 1940s movie poster
Activity 3: Australian film history
Subtheme(s): Art, music and literature; Entertainment and games; Inventions and electronic media
Charles Chauvel's 1940 movie Forty Thousand Horsemen was Australian cinema's first worldwide success story. In the following decades, many other Australian movies would also gain international success.
Ask students to create a list of the most successful Australian movies, particularly ones that achieved international popularity. As a class, discuss how Australia is presented in some selected movies: for example, Australia (2008), Man from Snowy River (1982), Crocodile Dundee (1986) and Finding Nemo (2003).
As students research movies of the past, make comparisons to moviemaking in Australia today. Select four well-known movies with 'Australiana' themes to use as examples in the class discussion and ask students to discuss why they think these themes are so apparent in Australian productions. Refer to the australianscreen website for clips such as Crocodile Dundee: australianscreen, http://aso.gov.au/titles/features/crocodile-dundee/
Ask students to research the history of Australian moviemaking to create a timeline using pictures gathered from the internet. The timeline can include as many Australian film productions from 1928 until today as students wish, but the chosen movies should include Australian themes. The following websites may be helpful:
australianscreen, http://aso.gov.au/

Dolly Parton named to '2021 People of the Year' list
by: Melanie Vásquez Russell
A screenshot from a WATE interview with Dolly Parton.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WATE) — Dolly just keeps on winning – this time with her charitable work. Country music icon Dolly Parton has been named as part of People magazine's "2021 People of the Year."
Dolly Parton, 75, was named for her work with her Imagination Library as well as donating COVID-19 research; while others named as part of the 2021 People of Year include Olympic gymnast Simone Biles for her focus on mental health, actor Sandra Oh for fighting anti-Asian hate and working on "transformative stories," and the more than 3 million teachers in our country — all for striving to make differences in their related fields.
Dolly Parton and her businesses raise $700k for flood relief
"This year has been a transformative one, pushing us all to create something new and hopefully better for our lives," the magazine said. "This issue reflects that spirit: Our People of the Year cover stars have all led the way in their fields to help make the world a little bit better."
In 2021, Dolly Parton was top of mind for several honors and awards; winning her first-ever Emmy Award for her Netflix Christmas special, being named one of TIME magazine's 100 Most Influential People, winning multiple Telly Awards for her "Goodnight with Dolly" web series, plus getting recognized by Tennessee Governor Bill Lee for her contributions to children's literacy.
Recently, the country icon honored her hometown of Sevierville as part of the "Honor Your Hometown" campaign to highlight common bonds that unite Americans by celebrating hometowns across the country.
Next up, like many others, she's looking forward to Christmas. Parton spoke with WATE 6 On Your Side Anchor Lori Tucker last month about her favorite time of year and Dollywood's Smoky Mountain Christmas, which is happening through December.
The Associated Press also contributed to this report.
