The Book of Mormon Published--The Church Organized.
An account written by the hand of Mormon, upon Plates, taken from the Plates of Nephi.
Wherefore, it is an abridgment of the record of the people of Nephi, and also of the Lamanites--Written to the Lamanites, who are a remnant of the house of Israel, and also to Jew and Gentile--Written by way of commandment, and also by the spirit of prophecy and of revelation--Written and sealed up, and hid up unto the Lord, that they might not be destroyed--To come forth by the gift and power of God unto the interpretation thereof--Sealed by the hand of Moroni and hid up unto the Lord, to come forth in due time by way of the Gentile--The interpretation thereof by the gift of God. An abridgment taken from the Book of Ether also which is a record of the people of Jared who were scattered at the time the Lord confounded the language of the people, when they were building a tower to get to heaven--Which is to show unto the remnant of the house of Israel what great things the Lord hath done for their father; and that they may know the covenants of the Lord that they are not cast off forever--And also to the convincing of the Jew and Gentile that Jesus is the Christ, the Eternal God, manifesting himself unto all nations--And now, if there are faults they are the mistakes of men wherefore, condemn not the things of God, that ye may be found spotless at the judgment-seat of Christ.
The remainder of the title-page is, of course, modern.
1. I am Alpha and Omega, Christ the Lord, yea, even I am he, the beginning and the end, the Redeemer of the world.
3. Retaining all power even to the destroying of Satan and his works at the end of the world, and the last great day of judgment, which I shall pass upon the inhabitants thereof, judging every man according to his works and the deed: which he hath done.
7. Again, it is written eternal damnation: wherefore it is more express than other scriptures, that it might work upon the hearts of the children of men, altogether for my name's glory.
14. And it is by my almighty power that you have received them.
15. Therefore I command you to repent--repent, lest I smite you by the rod of my mouth and by my wrath, and by my anger, and your sufferings be sore--how sore you know not, how exquisite you know not, yea, how hard to bear you know not.
21. And I command you, that you preach naught but repentance and show not these things unto the world until it is wisdom in me.
31. And of tenets thou shalt not talk, but thou shalt declare repentance and faith on the Savior, and remission of sins by baptism and by fire, yea, even the Holy Ghost.
41. Or canst thou be humble and meek, and conduct thyself wisely before me: yea, come unto me thy Savior. Amen.
3. Which church was organized and established in the year of your Lord eighteen hundred and thirty, in the fourth month, and on the sixth day of the month, which is called April.
5. For his word ye shall receive, as if from mine own mouth, in all patience and faith.
6. For by doing these things the gates of hell shall not prevail against you; yea, and the Lord God will disperse the powers of darkness from before you, and cause the heavens to shake for your good, and his name's glory.
7. For thus saith the Lord God, him have I inspired to move the cause of Zion in mighty power for good, and his diligence I know, and his prayers I have heard.
8. Yea, his weeping for Zion I have seen, and I will cause that he shall mourn for her no longer; for his days of rejoicing are come unto the remission of his sins, and the manifestations of my blessings upon his works.
9. For, behold, I will bless all those who labor in my vineyard with a mighty blessing, and they shall believe on his words, which are given him through me by the Comforter, which manifesteth that Jesus was crucified by sinful men for the sins of the world, yea, for the remission of sins unto the contrite heart.
12. And the first preacher of this church unto the church, and before the world, yea, before the Gentiles; yea, and thus saith the Lord God, lo, lo! to the Jews also. Amen.
We now proceeded to call out and ordain some others of the brethren to different offices of the Priesthood, according as the Spirit manifested unto us: and after a happy time spent in witnessing and feeling for ourselves the powers and blessings of the Holy Ghost, through the grace of God bestowed upon us, we dismissed with the pleasing knowledge that we were now individually members of, and acknowledged of God, "The Church of Jesus Christ," organized in accordance with commandments and revelations given by Him to ourselves in these last days, as well as according to the order of the Church as recorded in the New Testament. Several persons who had attended the above meeting, became convinced of the truth and came forward shortly after, and were received into the Church; among the rest, my own father and mother were baptized, to my great joy and consolation; and about the same time, Martin Harris and Orrin Porter Rockwell(14).
3. For it is because of your dead works, that I have caused this last covenant and this church to be built up unto me, even as in days of old.
1. Behold, I speak unto you, Oliver, a few words. Behold, thou art blessed, and art under no condemnation. But beware of pride, lest thou shouldst enter into temptation.
2. Make known thy calling unto the church, and also before the world, and thy heart shall be opened to preach the truth from henceforth and forever. Amen.
3. Behold, I speak unto you, Hyrum, a few words; for thou also art under no condemnation, and thy heart is opened, and thy tongue loosed; and thy calling is to exhortation, and to strengthen the church continually. Wherefore thy duty is unto the church forever and this because of thy family. Amen.
4. Behold, I speak a few words unto you, Samuel; for thou also art under no condemnation, and thy calling is to exhortation and to strengthen the church, and thou art not as yet called to preach before the world. Amen.
5. Behold, I speak a few words unto you, Joseph; for thou also art under no condemnation and thy calling also is to exhortation, and to strengthen the church; and this is thy duty from henceforth and forever. Amen.
6. Behold, I manifest unto you, Joseph Knight, by these words, that you must take up your cross, in the which you must pray vocally before the world as well as in secret, and in your family, and among your friends, and in all places.
7. And, behold, it is your duty to unite with the true church, and give your language to exhortation continually, that you may receive the reward of the laborer. Amen.
3. On June 11, 1829 Joseph Smith obtained the copyright of the Book of Mormon by bringing the title page to the office of R. Lansing, clerk of the "Northern District of New York." He was still negotiating with Egbert Grandin, printer of the Wayne Sentinel, to print the Book of Mormon. Grandin was reluctant to print the book because of his own religious misgivings about it as well as the prospect of low sales. He knew many of the locals who felt the book should not be published. Smith and Harris tried several other printers. They first contacted Thurlow Weed [See Weed's biography Life of Thurlow Weed published in 1883-84], publisher of the Rochester Anti-Masonic Enquirer. He refused, not wanting to get into the book publishing business. Next they saw Elihu F. Marshall a publisher in Rochester. Marshall agreed to publish if payment could be assured. Before they signed the contract with Marshall, Harris asked Grandin to reconsider printing 5000 copies of the book. Grandin consulted his typesetter, John H. Gilbert together with a few patrons and finally committed to the enterprise. Harris had to mortgage his farm over the protests of his wife on August 25, 1829 for $3,000.00 as security in case of poor sales. Cowdery, Harris and Joseph Smith watched the first page printed and rejoiced together at the dawning of a new dispensation.
There are on the average three changes per original manuscript page. These changes appear to be natural scribal errors; there is little or no evidence of conscious editing. Most of the changes are minor, and about one in five produce a discernible difference in meaning. Because they were all relatively minor, most of the errors thus introduced into the text have remained in the printed editions of the Book of Mormon and have not been detected and corrected except by reference to the original manuscript. About twenty of these errors were corrected in the 1981 edition.
In preparation for the second (1837) edition, hundreds of grammatical changes and a few textual emendations were made in [printer's ms].
The original manuscript was not consulted for the editing of the 1837 edition. However, in producing the 1840 edition, Joseph Smith used the [original ms] to restore some of its original readings. In October 1841, Joseph Smith placed the [original ms] in the cornerstone of the Nauvoo House. Over forty years later, Lewis Bidamon, Emma Smith's second husband, opened the cornerstone and found that water seepage had destroyed most of the ms. The surviving pages were handed out to various individuals during the 1880s.
One of Grandin's assistants said the ms was "on foolscap paper closely written and legible," but with no punctuation. John Gilbert inserted nearly 80% of the paragraphing and punctuation as he set the type. Proper names were capitalized in the ms and chapters were indicated but virtually all other changes had to be inserted at the shop. Cowdery sometimes assisted with the typesetting.
Gilbert did the press work with J. H. Bortles until December 1829. Grandin then hired a pressman, Thomas McAuley.
Almost immediately there was difficulty with the printing. One time JP Abner Cole, began to publish a weekly, The Reflector, using Grandin's press on the weekends when it was free. Cole used the alias "O. Dogberry" in print. He pirated excerpts of the Book of Mormon for his paper at first being sarcastic about its potential success but later after reading it, he said his readers should give the book a fair reading since it contained nothing evil or seditious in his opinion. Joseph had gone back to Harmony to be with Emma and his father had to retrieve him for Cole refused to stop publishing the book even when Hyrum and Oliver caught him red-handed at Grandin's place. After Joseph confronted him, Cole finally gave up the premature printing.
Second: that the copy made by Oliver Cowdery from the original manuscript only should be taken to the printers, so that if that should be destroyed the original would remain in the hands of the Prophet and his associates from which it could be replaced; and even this copy was supplied the printer in small quantities at a time, usually enough only for a single day's work of the printer.
Third: that in going to and from the office whenever carried the manuscript--usually it was Oliver Cowdery--should always have a guard to attend him.
Fourth: that a guard should be kept constantly upon the watch, both night and day, about the house to protect the manuscript from malicious persons who might seek to destroy it. (The authorities for the above are: Lucy Smith's History of the Prophet Joseph, ch xxxi; the statements of Stephen S. Harding who a number of times visited Grandin's establishment while the Book of Mormon was being printed; His statement is published in The Prophet of Palmyra by Thomas Gregg p. 34-56. This is that same Stephen S. Harding who was governor of Utah Territory from July, 1862 to July, 1863; also the statement of J. H. Gilbert, the principal compositor on the Book of Mormon The extreme care in allowing the printer to have but a small amount of copy at a time is subject of ridicule in nearly all anti "Mormon" books that treat of this period. In addition to all this is the evidence of the manuscript in the hands of the Whitmer family, nearly every page of which is in the handwriting of Oliver Cowdery, and by being divided into "takes" clearly bears evidence of having passed through the printers hands the evidence also in the existence of portions of the original manuscript now in the possession of President Joseph F. Smith, which was taken from its depository in one of the corner stones of the Nauvoo House, where it was placed by the hands of Joseph the Prophet, with other relics on the occasion of laying the corner stone of that building on the 2nd of October 1841. Unfortunately a great part of the manuscript was destroyed by dampness but enough is preserved to establish the fact that it is the original).
Notwithstanding all the precautions taken by the little group of brethren engaged in publishing the book. The Nephite record, mutilated by interlineations of human interventions and added vulgarisms intended to destroy the work, came nearly being given to the world before the Book of Mormon itself was published. This was the work of one Esquire Cole, ex-justice of the peace, who undertook to publish the Book of Mormon, in instalments in a weekly periodical called Dogberry Paper on Winter Hill. He obtained the use of Grandin's press nights and on Sundays, and surely must have obtained the advance sheets of the printed forms of the Book of Mormon which he was using with the knowledge of Mr. Grandin, at least it is difficult to conceive how he could obtain and use them without his knowledge Hyrum Smith, feeling uneasy concerning the security of that part of the Book of Mormon in the hands of the printer induced Oliver Cowdery one Sunday to go with him to the printer's to see if all was well and there they found Squire Cole at work on his Dogberry Paper, and publishing mutilated extracts from the Book of Mormon. He refused to desist from his unlawful course but Joseph was sent for and came up during the week from Harmony, and by firmly asserting his rights under the copyright law and by threatening to prosecute those who infringed them Cole was induced to abandon his intention of publishing the Book of Mormon in his paper.
8. The Book's contents were respected by early members more as new revelation than as a guide for conducting the affairs of the kingdom. (In spite of D&C 18:1-5.) The idea that God had spoken again seemed to be a major influence of the book. Rather than referring to the Bible or Book of Mormon for instruction on Church procedure, members simply applied to Smith for a revelation, particularly in the infant Church. [Bushman, Beginnings, 142.] However, it is evident that early missionaries took the opportunity to teach from it in their proselyting work. For example Wilford Woodruff preached from Jacob 5 on numerous occasions.[Journal of Wilford Woodruff, LDS Church Archives, especially the years from 1836 to 1841.] While others often took for the main topic of their preaching the "authenticity of the Book of Mormon." Finally, while members may have looked to Smith for direction, it is also clear that the book profoundly influenced him in early doctrine/praxis as in baptism and ordination (see D&C 20 and notes there).
Oliver Cowdery, Joseph Smith, Jun., Hyrum Smith, Peter Whitmer, Jun., Samuel H. Smith, David Whitmer.
Some of these had been baptized previously, but were all baptized on the day of organization.
These names were given to Joseph Knight by Oliver Cowdery.
There has been some question as to the number that had been baptized previous to the organization of the Church on the 6th day of April 1830 David Whitmer in his "Address to All Believers in Christ," a pamphlet of seventy-five pages published in 1887, says that there were six Elders and about seventy members before April 6th 1830. Others have estimated the number at thirty, thirty-five, and forty.
Knight seems to suggest that the Church was organized in Manchester. See Paul H. Peterson, BYUS 35(1996) no. 4, 222-227 for various accounts of Church organization, some favoring Manchester, others Fayette. See also Larry C. Porter, BYUS 9 no.3 for a list of those present at the organization. The confusion in early sources about the location of the Church organization is perhaps due in part to the somewhat informal way of introducing converts to the new religion. There may have been as many as three branches of the Church functioning before April 6th. However, as Roberts notes, this is probably misplaced chronology. This April 6th meeting was apparently held in part to quiet criticisms of observers that the Church was not a real organization founded as a legal entity - hence could not perform marriage or hold property for example. [Whitmer, An Address . . .,33] Part of the confusion may stem from lack of care in copying and communicating data for publication as possibly found with BC chapters 17-23 [see for example Phelps' apology in ES June 1833, p.98]. Both Smith and Whitmer, two of the principals are clear that Fayette was the location of this legal organization, although Joseph also indicates Manchester as the site [e.g. in Rupp op. sit.] The testimony of Smith and Whitmer must be given due weight. Contrary evidence seems to pass mostly through the hands of W. W. Phelps. It may have crept into later sources by reference.
For more discussion on this and the identity of the original six members (there are several different lists) see Peterson, ibid and PJS 1:242 n2 and references there. It is possible that the confusion between Manchester and Fayette arises from more than one meeting being held. Possibly Joseph Smith Sr. and Harris were baptized in the evening in Manchester where revelations may also have been received.
Finally, consult Richard Bushman, RBBM 6 no. 2(1994) pp. 122-33. See also Donald L. Enders, "A Snug Log House," Ensign August 1985 p.21 n60.
The Laws of New York State required a certain procedure for the organization of religous societies.
Section I and II of the act required that a certificate of organization be proved by witnesses before the court of common pleas of the county where the congregation was situated and recorded by the county clerk. Larry C. Porter reported that a search of county records failed to locate such a certificate. [Larry C. Porter, "Was the Church Legally Incorporated at the Time it was Organized in the State of New York?" Ensign, (December 1978), 8:26-27.] While such a certificate has not been found, it is clear from the evidence that the April 6 meeting was structured to abide by the statute.
10a. This of course is not correct. The name of the Church was "the Church of Christ" - see the following note.
We afterwards called out and ordained some others of the brethren to the respective offices of the Priesthood, according as the Spirit made manifest unto us. As may reasonably be expected, such scenes as these were calculated, to inspire our hearts with Joy unspeakable, at the same time that we felt ourselves almost over whelmed, with awe and reverence for that Almight Being, by whose grace we had been called to be instrumental in bringing about for the Children of men, the enjoyment of such glorious blessings, as were now at this time poured out upon us. To find ourselves engaged in the very same order of things which were observed by the Holy Apostles of old, To realize the importance and solemnity of the above mentioned proceedings, and to witness & feel with our own natural senses, the like glorious manifestions of the powers of the Priesthood; the gifts and blessings of the Holy Ghost, (crossed out: "which we had often read of as a things") and the goodness and grace of a merciful God, unto such as obey the everlasting gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ, combined to create within us sensations of rapturous gratitude, which may be felt, but cannot be described.
Some of the events in the long crossed out portion above are not recorded anywhere else, such as the mention of the gift of tongues. Indeed, some sources claim this gift was not manifested in the Church until two years later (but this probably incorrect, see chapter 21 note 24 this volume). However, at least some of these events may represent a compression of what took place during the month of April, hence the omission from the official ms. For example, compare the text in this note to the events described at the beginning of the following chapter, especially the mention of the Knights. Since little primary source material would be available to Joseph Smith, the eight intervening years may have clouded the chronology of some of the events in this first draft.
13. The earliest complete ms copy of the revelation is the one in the ms history (1838-39), however a partial ms copy exists in the handwriting of Edward Partridge but is undated. The earliest dated copy is from the Book of Commandments [BC] (1833). There are no variations in the text of any significance.
Orrin Porter Rockwell. B. at Belchertown, Hampshire County, Massachusetts. Moved with family to Manchester, New York in 1817, where he befriended Joseph Smith. Among the first converts to Mormonism (baptized April 6, 1830). Went to Missouri in 1831 and experienced the difficulties there. M. Luana Hart Beebe, 16 Feb. 1832 in Jackson County, Missouri- Oliver Cowdery officiated, (Beebe d. 6 Mar 1897, West Tintic, Juab, Utah). Beebe divorced Rockwell ca. 1845. He may have married again for a short time to a "Mrs. Amos Davis." Rockwell assisted in Mormon exodus from Missouri, 1839. Member of the Mormon party who went to Washington D.C., to seek redress for Missouri wrongs, 1839-40. Accused, imprisoned, and later acquitted in the 1842 assassination attempt of former Missouri Governor, Lilburn Boggs. Scout and hunter for the Mormon pioneers crossing the plains, 1846-47. Deputy marshal in Utah, 1849-78. m. Mary Ann Neff, 3 May 1854 (she died, 28 Sep 1866, Lehi, Utah) m. Christina Olsen, 1870. Rockwell d. 9 Jun 1878, at Salt Lake City. Beebe and Rockwell and had five children. Beebe remarried with prominent Mormon John Alpheus Cutler in 1846. Cutler established the site for Winter Quarters, but eventually rejected Brigham Young and remained in Iowa. Beebe came on to Utah. Rockwell and Neff had six children, Olsen had Rockwell had three children. Altogether, Rockwell had 14 children from 1832 to 1878.
15. This revelation, while received separately from D&C 20, was originally intended to be published as part of D&C 20. See Evening and Morning Star (June 1832) and "Book of Commandments, Laws, and Covenants," Book B [hereafter BLC] (first entry), where D&C 22 appears as part of the "Articles and Covenants" (D&C 20) of the Church. D&C 20 was apparently a composite of a number of revelations and being the organizational marching orders, was modified as further revelation was received until the 1835 edition of the D&C. See note 8, chapter 7 this volume. D&C 22 appeared separately from D&C 20 in and after the 1835 edition of the D&C.
In the early days of this Church there were certain persons, belonging to the Baptist denomination, very moral and no doubt as good people as you could find anywhere, who came, saying they believed in the Book of Mormon, and that they had been baptized into the Baptist Church, and they wished to come into our Church. The Prophet Joseph had not, at that time, particularly inquired in relation to this matter, but he did inquire, and received a revelation from the Lord [D&C 22]. These Baptists had to be re-baptized: there was no other way to get into this Church.
The earliest copy known is found in the Painesville Telegraph, April 19, 1831. The McLellin text has some slight differences from the current published text. In verse one, the words "even the same" appear instead of "even that." The other early texts in ES and the Telegraph match the HC text.
16. The earliest known copy of D&C 23 appears in the BC. It consists of five revelations and they appeared separately in the BC. In all later publications the revelations were combined as one section. Textual variations among extant copies are incidental. The earliest ms version is that found in the ms history.

AGRIBANK catalyses the transformation of agriculture in Namibia
Agribank is focussed on catalysing the transformation of agriculture in Namibia. The Bank plans to do this through inclusive lending where renewed emphasis is placed on emerging and communal farmers as well as improving service delivery efficiencies with specific focus on loan process timelines. This was revealed by Sakaria Nghikembua, the Chief Executive Officer of the bank, at its first ever stakeholder engagement dinner held in Rundu on Thursday, 22 June 2017.
Nghikembua further listed value addition financing that will support economic growth and employment creation as key milestones towards transforming the agricultural sector. Agribank furtherplans to enhance agricultural output through training and mentorship programmes and has therefore established its own specialised Agri-Advisory Services Division within the bank from 1 April this this year. Nghikembua made the remarks during the dinner where the bank shared its strategy and focus areas with key stakeholders while receiving feedback through mutual interactions.
At the event, Agribank's Board Chairperson, Terttu Uyuni, stated that at the heart of Agribank's strategy are the key pillars of customer focus, financial sustainability and socio-economic transformation, amongst others. The Agribank Chairperson explained that the bank is focusing on customers because "we need to understand their needs, the challenges they face as well as the opportunities available to them. Financial sustainability requires us to grow our loan book, manage our expenses prudently and ensure timely loan repayments to the bank." She reiterated that the Board and Management have a duty "to manage the bank in a sustainable and inclusive manner so that we can make a wider developmental impact in our country."
According to her, the socio-economic development pillar of the bank's strategy asserts the principle that, as a national development financing institution, Agribank needs to be inclusive, adding "It is critical that we devise appropriate strategies to reach out to communal farmers, who have previously benefited only in a limited way from our loan products and support services. The recent launch of the no-collateral loan product for salaried employees supports this strategic aspiration."
Uuyuni also amplified the statement by Nghikembua on the bank's catalytic role in the transformation of agriculture by providing innovative and affordable financing solutions to Namibians so that they can produce for more for themselves and the country; as well as earn foreign currency for the country through exports. "By taking advantage of our agro-processing financing, our citizens will not only be able to add value and grow the economy, but they will also provide jobs, secure livelihoods, eliminate poverty, restore people's dignity and create prosperity for all Namibians", she stated.
The Agribank chairperson further noted that for long, Agribank focused on funding primary production activities. With Government's emphasis now on value addition and growth-at-home, the bank has realigned its strategy to ensure that it also plays its part in the financing of value addition activities in the agricultural space.
"It is against this background that the Board approved the agro processing loan product which will add value to basic agricultural produce, create employment and help expand production in support of economic growth. The bank therefore invites clients with bankable ideas to talk to us, so that we can guide them through the necessary processes to realise their dreams of agricultural value-addition."
At the occasion, the Governor of Kavango East Region, Honourable Dr Samuel Mbambo, who was the guest of honour, pledged his support towards the full implementation of Agribank's strategic plan so that it can deliver on its mandate to ensure that there is a bigger developmental impact in the country.
Dr Mbambo challenged small scale, as well as commercial, producers in his region and beyond, to step up their game and set up factories to manufacture Namibia's own tomato sauce and process other produce into value-added products.
"As a country, we are currently importing these most basic products, but if we organise ourselves and take advantage of this facility by Agribank, we should be able to penetrate this market and make a dent in our quest for food security and economic diversification," the Governor concluded.
The Agribank stakeholders' dinner was attended by both Governors of the Kavango East and Kavango West Regions, the Mayors of Rundu and Nkurenkuru as well as senior government officials and key clients of Agribank in the two regions.

There are many places to go in Puerto Viejo for nightlife and music.
A few of these places are located directly on the beach.
When we were in Puerto Viejo in 2015 we went to Koki Beach & Lazy Mon. On this trip we enjoyed the daytime vibe, as we lunched at Lazy Mon and did a bit of people watching.
No place better for that!
For evening, this time we chose Salsa Brava, the perfect spot to watch the sunset and enjoy food, drinks and LIVE music with DJ. The drinks were pretty good as was the food (which was very affordable I might add).
We did not have a chance to check our Koki Beach on this trip.

A level playing field on Disclosure
"Making it Fair – A Joint Inspection of the Disclosure of Unused Material in Volume Crown Court Cases – Her Majesty's Crown Prosecution Service Inspectorate and Her Majesty's Chief Inspector."
This report published in July 2017 contains a number of sensible and welcome recommendations for the improvement of procedures and training in the identification and disclosure of unused material by the Crown in criminal proceedings. It is the latest in a number of reports/ protocols which followed the introduction of the disclosure regime created by the Criminal Procedure and Investigations Act 1996 (CPIA).
The focus of this particular report is the volume caseload of Crown Courts as opposed to large and complex cases (predominantly frauds) which have attracted most interest in the media. The report's authors conclude that procedures in relation to the latter have been refined to cope with a number of failures identified in earlier reviews. This may be a somewhat optimistic conclusion if recent experience is to be a guide. The Court of Appeal in R V R (2015), a large and complex fraud case, felt compelled to issue guidance for the correct implementation of the CPIA with specific reference to E-Disclosure.
The authors conclude that far less attention has been given to the vast majority of Crown Court cases where systemic failings in the disclosure process are tolerated and the parties involved "look for ways of working around its failings rather than solving the root problems". They have made some specific recommendations, including:
– Early definition of disclosure issues relating to unused material at the charging stage
– Defence Statements should be reviewed by the prosecutor before being sent to the police and guidance given as to what material needs to be reviewed for disclosure purposes
– The College of Policing should provide training of sufficient depth to all staff in the investigative process
– Police forces to improve their supervision procedures of case files in relation to unused disclosure
– The CPS Compliance and Assurance Teams to conduct six monthly dip samples of volume Crown Court cases
– Each police force to appoint a Disclosure Champion
– The CPS to set up an effective sharing of analysis of data between Areas and Headquarters
– The CPS to review their digital case management systems and ensure that all digital unused material supplied to the police is stored at a central location
– Communications between the chief investigating officer and the assigned prosecutor should be improved to ensure that they collectively seek to resolve disclosure issues
The extent to which it will be practicable to implement these recommendations will almost certainly be driven by the available resources. Budget cuts imposed on the Police Service and the CPS during recent years do not augur well. However, the fact that these proposals emanate from the prosecuting agencies' recognition of their own inadequacies is encouraging. The haemorrhaging of resources (on both the prosecution and defence sides) engendered by disclosure failures cries out for a comprehensive solution along the lines advocated. It will also, one hopes, diminish the number of unwarranted prosecutions which are discontinued following the belated discovery of material that should by rights have been reviewed much earlier in the process.

Time for Wes Welker to Retire
July 24, 2015 by Scott D. Mikulski Leave a Comment
Wes Welker has had an outstanding 11-year NFL career with the Miami Dolphins, New England Patriots, and Denver Broncos after going undrafted out of Texas Tech in 2004. However, it is time for Welker to hang up the cleats after sustaining three concussions over a nine month span.
Welker's former teammate, Champ Bailey, cares for and respects Welker so much he no longer wants to see him try to play. Bailey shared his thoughts with FOX Sports.
"I don't want Wes to play for my own personal reasons. I've seen him get concussions. It scares me," Bailey told Fox Sports. "I think he can still play, but I don't want him to play because of these concussions.
"This thing is no joke. It's a serious thing when you start talking about your head. And for him to have to worry about that at a young age that he is now, he has to think about that for years to come, and I just hope he hangs it up and not strap it up again. I understand why he has that desire to play, he wants the ring. He still has that hunger, I just don't want to see it."
The San Diego Chargers signed Welker as a free agent in 2004 and cut him after the first game in order to sign another player. Former Chargers' coach Marty Schottenheimer has called cutting Welker "the biggest mistake I ever made."
Welker chose to sign with the Dolphins who took advantage of his skills as a return man. While he showed signs of the player we have seen become a NFL star, Welker made his mark with the New England Patriots where he made the Pro Bowl five consecutive seasons and was named an All-Pro twice. During these years, Welker eclipsed 100 receptions five times and led the NFL in receptions three years.
The Patriots and Welker could not agree to a deal after the 2012 season so he took his talents to Denver for the opportunity to catch passes from Peyton Manning. While Welker's receptions dropped from 112 his last season with the Patriots to 73 in his first year with the Broncos, he did grab a career-high ten touchdowns. But, the 2014 season was a tough one for Welker. He sustained a third concussion in nine months during the third preseason game and recorded only 49 receptions which was the fewest of his career since he had 29 catches with the Dolphins in 2005. One bright spot last season was Welker passing former Bronco Rod Smith for most receptions by an undrafted player.
I am sure playing without fear of sustaining a concussion must be tough for a player. Welker has had a very impressive career where he owns or shares 15 NFL records. Not bad for a player who wasn't even invited to the 2004 NFL Combine.
The long-term effects of concussions are just not worth the risk of Welker continuing his career. He was married in 2012, and he and his wife could start a family if they chose to do so.
There have been many reported incidents of former athletes who suffer from CTE which is an illness related to brain trauma from repeated head injuries including concussions. Just last December, Kosta Karageorge who was a defensive end at Ohio St., was found in a dumpster with an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. In September 2014, PBS reported that 76 out of 79 deceased NFL players had CTE. Welker's former teammate, Junior Seau, shot himself in the chest in May 2012, after playing almost 20 years. After studying his brain, Seau was found to have CTE
I can go on discussing football players who committed suicide and their brain was found to suffer from CTE after their death. The long-term effects of concussions have become a huge topic of discussion in recent years to the point players are deciding to retire early rather than continue their careers. Just this past offseason, Patrick Willis, Jake Locker, Jason Worilds, and Maurice Jones-Drew chose to retire before the age of 30. In the case of Willis, he was a star, seven-time Pro Bowl linebacker who left 20 million to retire.
Welker's decision to retire should be easy based on these stories and others that have been reported in the media.
And that's as I see it!

UCB students attend EU Gangs project in Italy
Degree student Dawn Dance studying Youth Community and Families at UCB and James Doyle, who along with Dawn also completed a Training the Trainer course in November 2014, have just returned from Italy having completed a 5 day mobility project working on a range of projects including with migrant minors at a residential centre in Modena.
The mobility project is an extension of the EUGangs project which includes seven EU partners (3 from the West Midlands including UCB, and one each from Italy, Romania, Greece and Cyprus). The Italian partner in the EU Gangs project is CEIS (Cooperative Sociale CEIS Formazione) which is involved in many community-based projects including; running a youth and community centre with an alcohol-free café, residential centres for unaccompanied minors, drug rehabilitation projects and educational programmes, all delivered in partnership with the Universities of Bologna and Modena.
CIES is also delivering a VET (Vocational Educational Training) programme based on the level 3 course Community Safety, Working with Gangs programme that UCB helped to develop (and which is currently being delivered off site at St Georges Community Hub). Both James and Dawn have helped to deliver on CEIS's VET programme during their visit, with a particular focus on comparative policy-level developments in Britain and in Italy in relation to working with marginalised young people including those in gangs. Andrea Ascari, CEIS's Director confirmed that the discussions were really valuable and interesting.
Dawn and James are pictured above with Andrea Ascari CEIS's Director. Both students had an amazing time.
"It was so interesting, I feel privileged to be able to share my knowledge with a professional who listened intently to our suggestions and really involved us in all discussions and activities. We went as students but the Italians said we were Educators."
"putting theory into practice is so important if we are to be able to make a difference in the future. The opportunity to meet other EU partners and listen to their experiences and projects has been a great experience, I've had a fantastic time"
Both James and Dawn are also part of UCB's Community of Practice (Working with Gangs), which involves trained trainers from UCB and Walsall College, and which meets periodically to focus on issues of youth violence and marginalisation (including young people in gangs). They have also been involved in organising a series of seminars ('Choice' and 'Radicalisation: Fallacy or Reality') and most recently, a full day conference last week on 'Responding to Youth Violence'. On their return, James and Dawn will provide feedback on their visit to the other members of the Community of Practice, some of whom also hope to follow their footsteps and visit and deliver for CEIS in Modena later next year.


Full of life, adventure and mischief are two local volunteers, Dave and Shelagh Richardson, have landed back home just in time for Christmas.
On their second campaign to the Living & Learning Project Dave and Shelagh shared all their vast knowledge and skills in teaching and youth work with young people from Santa Teresa. A long side a team of international volunteers and local staff they provided opportunities for young people to help build self esteem and engagement with their local communities through music, art and excursions.
Cheers guys – when does the third campaign start?
New volunteer in the Project!
We had a great time and we wish everybody a great Christmas BUT please get rid of that photo ! !

Palmitoyl acyltransferase assays and inhibitors (Review)
Jeremiah M. Draper, Charles D. Smith
Cancer Institute, Next-Generation Therapies
Palmitoylated proteins have been implicated in several disease states including Huntington's, cardiovascular, T-cell mediated immune diseases, and cancer. To proceed with drug discovery efforts in this area, it is necessary to: identify the target enzymes, establish efficient assays for palmitoylation, and conduct high-throughput screening to identify inhibitors. The primary objectives of this review are to examine the types of assays used to study protein palmitoylation and to discuss the known inhibitors of palmitoylation. Six main palmitoylation assays are currently in use. Four assays, radiolabeled palmitate incorporation, fatty acyl exchange chemistry, MALDI-TOF MS and azido-fatty acid labeling are useful in the identification of palmitoylated proteins and palmitoyl acyltransferase (PAT) enzymes. Two other methods, the in vitro palmitoylation (IVP) assay and a cell-based peptide palmitoylation assay, are useful in the identification of PAT enzymes and are more amenable to screening for inhibitors of palmitoylation. To date, two general types of palmitoylation inhibitors have been identified. Lipid-based palmitoylation inhibitors broadly inhibit the palmitoylation of proteins; however, the mechanism of action of these compounds is unknown, and each also has effects on fatty acid biosynthesis. Conversely, several non-lipid palmitoylation inhibitors have been shown to selectively inhibit the palmitoylation of different PAT recognition motifs. The selective nature of these compounds suggests that they may act as protein substrate competitors, and may produce fewer non-specific effects. Therefore, these molecules may serve as lead compounds for the further development of selective inhibitors of palmitoylation, which may lead to new therapeutics for cancer and other diseases.

Barock Project was born in 2003 and have the goal to match classic music (mainly baroque), rock and a few jazz, substained by a pop structure to renew the beloved Progressive Rock of 70s. The head of project is the keyboard player Luca Zabbini, piano player and composer, affected by the passion for the famous keyboardist Keith Emerson (ELP). In the summer of 2004 Giambattista Giorgi, a young bass player, the drummer Giacomo Calabria and the voice of Luca Pancaldi joined to the band.
In January 2007 they performed live in Bologna with a string quartet. The arrangements are made by Zabbini and Rock In Theater is the DVD of the concert. In the end of the same year come out the first album Misteriose Voci under the label Musea Records and in the summer of 2009 the second record, Rebus under the italian label Mellow Records, gained good reviews both.
In March 2012 the french label Musea Records publish their third album Coffee in Neukölln, wrote totally in english.
Was the work which consacrate Barock Project such as Symphonic Prog Rock international band with a nomination to the Prog Awards 2012.
In the same year joined to the band Eric Ombelli (drum) and Marco Mazzuoccolo (guitar) and in 2014 started recording of the fourth and more complex album. At the end of 2014 the bassist Giorgi left the group and Francesco Caliendo took his place.
In January 2015 Barock Project announce the exit of Skyline,edited by Artalia with the help of a fundraising campaign and with partecipation of two big name of prog: Vittorio De Scalzi (New Trolls) and Paul Whitehead (first cover artist of Genesis).
In November of the same year Alex Mari take the place of Luca Pancaldi.
In May 2016 came out the live Vivo,a double cd of two hours of music, recorded during the tour played in 2015.
In March 2017 the sixth album Detachment saw the light, and the band performed in Holland and at Symphonic Night Festival at Tsutaya O-East in Tokyo.
In 2018 Barock Project was in tour in Holland, in USA at RosFest festival and one more time in Japan at Tsutaya O-West in Tokyo. The band completes the year with a concert to Auditorium Parco della Musica in Roma.
On August 2019 the band signs with the label Immaginifica by Aereostella and in September the band release the new album Seven Seas.

Monastery of the Mother of God in Hvosno (, ) was a Christian monastery of the Serbian Orthodox Church in the historical region of Hvosno. It was situated at the foot of Mokra Mountain, nearby hamlets Vrelo and Studenica, some 20 kilometers north of the city of Peć, in modern Kosovo. The Monastery was declared Monument of Culture of Exceptional Importance on 10 July 1967, and Republic of Serbia claims to have it under protection.

In the third decade of the 13th century, on the foundations of an older basilica, a new church dedicated to the Dormition of the Theotokos was erected in order to serve as a cathedral seat of the Serbian Orthodox Eparchy of Hvosno. The single-nave church had a dome and an altar apse, semi-circular on the inside, rectangular on the outside. On the northern and southern sides of the narthex, there were two parecclesia, whose outside was masked with a flat surface. The chapels were topped by two towers of greater height than the church dome. The church is in compliance with the Rascian architecture. In the mid-14th century, another single-nave building with a semi-circular apse on the east, and a barrel-vault was adjoined to the church. The second half of the 16th century is a period of artistic thrive of the monastery. Debris of the monastery complex were first researched in 1930, and then from 1966 to 1970, when remains of the church and the monks dwelling-house, together with segments of the fortification, were preserved.

History
The monastery is one of the only known churches dating from the 6th century in northern Illyrica (Province of Dardania), assumed to have been built by Justinian I. It is one of the earliest structure dating from the mid-6th century, i.e. pre-Slavic migration, and therefore constructed in the early Eastern Roman style. Within its Byzantine fortification were two three-nave basilicas with its narthex belonging to the early Byzantine Period. The semi-circle apse of the main church relates to the early reign of the Emperor Justinian and the first decades of the 6th century, as later churches were built with outer three-sided apses, under the influence of the Constantinople construction style.

When the autocephalous Serbian Archbishopric was founded in 1219, seat of the newly created Eparchy of Hvosno was placed in the Monastery of the Mother of God in the region of Hvosno, and a new church was built within the monastery complex. A century and a half later, after the creation of the Serbian Patriarchate of Peć (1346), the Eparchy of Hvosno was raised to the honorary rank of a Metropolitanate, and as such it is mentioned in written sources in 1473, 1566 and 1635. The last metropolitan Victor is mentioned in 1635. During the Great Serbian Migrations, the Monastery became deserted and dilapidated.

ClearView consultants take a tremendous amount of pride in the prestige of their firm in the healthcare and life sciences industry. The firm's deep bench of subject experts and stellar commitment to quality differentiate ClearView from many of its competitors in the eyes of clients. While insiders do point out that theirs is more a strategy outfit than an operations-oriented firm, they're quick to praise the caliber of colleagues with whom they work as well as the range of client projects, making for an exciting, challenging, and enlightening experience.
Particular emphasis is placed on the myriad professional development opportunities and the investment in education that a supportive leadership places in its people. While nobody seems to be in a hurry to l...
ClearView is a boutique consulting firm in the life sciences strategy field that provides advice and insights across four main areas of focus: pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, medical devices, and diagnostics. Founded in 2007, the company has enjoyed exponential growth and is now well-established, with a steady list of clients and strong demand for its services.
The firm's core strength is the specificity of its field: The needs of life sciences companies are unique and can't be served by just any consultant. The complexity of questions in the life sciences field requires consultants who understand the medical and scientific issues involved and their intersection with the business world. ClearView's founding partners recognized a gap in the market and decided to create a firm based on their deep ex...

Best Consulting Firms for Firm Leadership
Best Consulting Firms for Innovation
"ClearView is a great place to grow really quickly, gain robust experience across the life sciences space, and work with unparalleled colleagues in terms of their intelligence, motivation, and great spirit."
"The corporate culture and potential for upward mobility, even for those without advanced degrees [are the best parts]. From a BD perspective, ClearView focuses heavily on strategic insights and strong client service, which has resulted in substantial repeat business that builds on top of new growth"
"You will get a lot out of the experience, but you have to be willing to put a lot in. The rate of learning is very fast, which is both a challenge and an opportunity, but you are supported throughout all of it."
"Commitment to growing and leveraging deep expertise in the subject matter combined with strategic vision, allowing us to truly understand client needs and deliver meaningful outputs."
"Amazing intelligent group of individuals working with top clients on the most interesting clients and being paid well for it."
"We are consistently told by clients that we are different from other firms because we have a deep understanding of the science and can draw important implications from them."
"The job is very demanding at all levels of the company. We try to protect the Analysts and Consultants as much as possible and managers do a pretty good job of striving for balance. However, given how in-demand our services are, it can sometimes put pressure on managers and leadership members in terms of achieving balance."
"I think ClearView has really stepped up during the COVID-19 pandemic. We were given a stipend early on to help us set up our home offices, and have been given very clear guidance from the leadership team that they will do everything in their power to ensure that ClearView remains a safe place to work for everyone. Our team building group has also been hosting all sorts of events and sending out gifts to help keep morale up during work from home, which has been a really nice, human touch."
"There are significant efforts at the firm to protect vacation time and to encourage individuals at all levels to take it. While partners may choose to work on their vacation weeks, the expectation is that junior members will not and they encourage that strongly."
"We have gym reimbursement and healthy actions benefits through our health insurance, which are great perks. During COVID-19, the firm also gave every employee a stipend to outfit our home offices for the work from home period. I feel like ClearView has taken employee health and wellness extremely seriously during this difficult time, frequently conducting company sentiment surveys and creating work plans that keep employee health in mind. The long hours have been more difficult during the work from home period, as it's more difficult to separate home life and work life when they're in the same location, but my team leads have encouraged me to hop offline at the end of the day."
"Wellness has been a greater focus in light of all-virtual working settings with COVID and continues to be something we invest time and resources into, as difficult as it is in an WFH world."
"At the leadership level, we have the flexibility to take vacation days as needed but there is an expectation to stay plugged in at a minimum level to ensure you stay in touch with projects and clients. At the staff level though, we almost always honor vacation times and allow team members to unplug and work with their engagement managers and leadership members to ensure coverage and preparedness in their absence."
"Best in class amongst our competitors. Escalation in compensation as you grow is unparalleled and leadership compensation is truly best-in-class, strong motive to stay and to grow through the growing pains."
"The firm pays quite well outside of the large management consulting companies. Bonuses are good, and when tied with fast promotion tracks, people can earn quite a bit of money right out of undergrad or grad school."
"Salary progression with promotion is fantastic. Everyone promoted to a level earns [the] same salary regardless of gender, race, etc."
"Rapid salary progress and always hit or exceed target bonus."
"Excellent parental leave policy -- 12 weeks paid time off for mothers and fathers, which is truly "unplugged" time to focus on family."
"Best: bonus is pretty much guaranteed every year, compensation is comparable to other large and top-tier consulting firms Worst: compensation doesn't really match hours worked and what is expected of you (employees 1 year into the job are expected to drive entire workstreams, ghost documents, manage client relationships, etc.)."
"The company does an excellent job providing professional development and promotion opportunities for all team members. As long as team members are comfortable with feedback, always intended to help them improve more quickly, then they are set up for success within ClearView (and admittedly, beyond ClearView as well)."
"We have a true meritocracy at ClearView. If people are really quick to grasp the responsibilities of each level and role, they can be promoted very rapidly, as often as every six months in exceptional instances. On the other hand, if team members take a little longer to develop but are making steady positive progress, that's OK too! There are no promotion quotas, or very strict cohort-based promotions. You are evaluated individually based on your merits and it's as simple as that."
"Leadership and the firm overall is very focused on supporting and maximizing career development opportunities for team members at all levels. We have a very strong/structured initial onboarding process and continue to offer mentorship and training opportunities on a continued basis. Leadership has also taken significant steps to supporting D&I Initiatives, including re-evaluating hiring / targeting approach and bringing in external consultants to create an action plan for improving D&I"
"Most who have left ClearView have left with great jobs - both with regards to pay and responsibility. Perhaps it's worth noting for any consulting role, they're mostly strategy focused vs. operational."
"Every ClearViewer has a coach who is either part of the manager team or the leadership team, so we get direct feedback and guidance directly from those who know the business best. On top of the coaching opportunities, we also have amazing formalized training. The case training we experienced in our first week and the modules in week 2 really set us up for success, and the mentorship program for the first few projects really made me feel like I was able to get my feet under me without being 'thrown to the wolves"."
"Meritocratic organization that recognizes talent and promotes based on those talents. Also, the extensive network creates a wide range of opportunities for a post-consulting career that is supported by the senior leadership."
"ClearView does a great job with hiring and promotion of women throughout the organization, though presence at the leadership level is a little lower, it is very present otherwise, with women as some of the top performers at the company. ClearView this year also recognized their historical lack of efforts to truly target and retain minorities, and has undertaken significant efforts to remedy this at a cultural level with external support and shifts to our recruiting strategy."
"ClearView has really stepped up with DE&I since the BLM protests raised corporate awareness of systemic racism in March. We have had external consultants in to evaluate our recruiting and promotion policies to ensure that we are doing everything we can to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion at the firm, and have hosted many conversations to be transparent about progress that is being made on every front."
"Though our firm has always been supportive of equal opportunities for employees regardless of race, gender or sexuality, we have made a big effort recently to lead the conversation around these complex issues. I'm optimistic that this will translate into real impact in the firm within the next couple of months."
"The OUT LGBT diversity initiative…has significantly grown over the last year and has fostered a strong community where we regularly meet to discuss key issues affecting the LGBT [community] today as well as enjoy a social outlet with diverse peers. We interact broadly with the organization to educate team members on LGBT issues and history during Pride month and engage the team to join in lip sync contests as well as workshops on implicit bias to ensure a very LGBT friendly community internally. Our new efforts in diversity and inclusion for ethnically diverse colleagues, MOSAIC, is taking charge significantly this year to ensure an adequate pipeline of diverse talent and teams at ClearView and our WomenLEAD diversity initiative has a strong history to promote women in leadership roles. I'm proud of the growth and commitment ClearView has made to diversity and inclusion during my tenure at the organization."
"While underrepresented by females among leadership, our promotion process is transparent and blind to gender. The firm has made a serious commitment to changing hiring and mentoring policies to increase and support DE&I"
"Incoming salaries are fixed for all new hires. Progression is very clearly defined and documented."
"Best: We continue to maintain a thriving book of business in the COVID era and have adapted to our clients' needs remarkably well. Worst: While aggressive growth targets as a firm are fantastic, it inevitably leads to some growing pains as we increase the size of our firm."
"I constantly receive positive feedback from clients regarding our projects and our leadership team always seems to be looking to grow and innovate. COVID-19 and working from home away from colleagues has undoubtedly impacted employee morale, but the firm is well-positioned to thrive and business continues to be strong."
"The firm is receiving more projects than they can fulfill. This represents profound growth potential. However in the interim, there is a higher demand on current employees."
"We have arguably been busier than ever with COVID - there is truly no shortage of demand for our services, we run near 100% capacity with a weeks-long waiting list for new project starts."
"Continue to grow demand for business resulting and emerging positioning as best in class. Consistently win projects despite being higher price than competitors."
"GOOD: No reduction in business in COVID environment. Proactive about forming internal working groups to discuss potential business considerations and impacts of COVID on clients over the summer and now have materials ready for project proposals. BAD: Employee morale is low among those in the analyst to senior consultant career stages who have at least 1 year of experience with the firm due to workload issues."
"An ideal candidate can structure a complex problem well, perform the quantitative analysis necessary for the problem, and communicate the findings."
"One 45-minute phone screen followed by in-person interviews (two 45-minute, two 30-minute). The ideal candidate would be comfortable digging in to understand patient segmentation and treatment paradigm, and then using this information to develop contextualized strategic recommendations."
"We are looking for someone with a strong science background who also has experience with business / finance. Someone who has interned in a business development role at a pharmaceutical company is a good example."
"We seek driven candidates with high intellectual horsepower and curiosity who excel and framing and solving problems, particularly in a case-based setting. We also require candidates to have a strong history/experience and/or demonstrated interest in life sciences."
"Pretty standard first round phone screen then super days. Ideal candidate has a strong life science content background and can apply basic scientific concepts. Can then also think strategically with a demonstrated interest in business."
"Strong quant skills, science background, strong brainstorming. 5 case interviews, one phone screen and 4 in-person (now video conference) interviews."
"What factors should a company consider in deciding which disease to pursue for clinical trials? What factors would drive or limit the uptake of a novel pharmaceutical product?"
"Our client is a small startup with one clinical stage asset in a rare disease. What is the addressable patient population and peak revenue opportunity? What are some potential barriers that our client may encounter as they work to bring this product to market and attempt to realize the opportunity?"
"How large is the market for X drug? What types of diseases should a drug with X mechanism of action target?"
"Market sizing and strategy for a new drug launch."
"Typical pharmaceutical / life science industry case questions."

Comic Literary Fiction

Montclair Literary Tour
With the debut reading of my novel taking place in Montclair, NJ, I found myself exploring the town as I put some posters up (I'll share my exciting news about Watchung Booksellers and the Red Eye Cafe in just a bit further down in this post), and I was super excited by all the cool literary places to check out.
Montclair Book Center
Montclair Book Center has been part of downtown Montclair since 1984. They sell both used books and discounted new books, and they also have some interesting non-book collections, like their vinyl records.
The store features 10,000 square feet of browsing space, and the shelves of books reach up to the ceiling.
I found myself particularly captivated with the "Literary Biography" section. Sure, plenty of places have biographies, but this is multiple shelves of biographies about authors.
They've got large selections of a lot of genres from a prominent display of SciFi/Fantasy to poetry or the huge fiction selection titled "Literature."
And if you really enjoy your time at the Montclair Book Center, you can commemorate your visit with a t-shirt!
Montclair Public Library
Spacious and beautiful, the Montclair Public Library is the perfect place to spend an afternoon or a lifetime browsing and reading books.
It's true that libraries are a unique and valuable aspect of society, which provides equal access to books, media, and comfortable space for studying and inhabiting unlike anywhere else. They hold important programs to support their communities, often being one of the few places to offer support for those with little money or resources. This is especially worth emphasizing in an era when ignorant people inexplicably think Amazon or Starbucks come anywhere close to this.
And while there may be some libraries that are tiny and underfunded, there is no shortage of stunning libraries.
In fact, the Montclair Public Library had an extensive renovation and expansion in 1997 and was named one of the top five libraries in the entire United States by Library Journal in 2002.
Libraries always have cool projects to participate in.
This project of "Folds for Freedom" was inspired by Maya Stein, who folded 3,000 origami swans to represent all of the children separated from their parents at the US-Mexico border and held in detention centers. She used the project as a fundraiser to benefit "Kids at the Border."
There's no shortage of books to browse through in the library, and they've got other media as well.
I was impressed with their extensive collection of physical audiobooks. I like to use library apps to listen to audiobooks, but the collections are often small, there are long wait times to get books, and then you only get a week to listen to it when it shows up. Physical audiobooks are often my best bet, and they're easy to listen to in the car during my commute.
They had this great display of local authors right near the circulation desk.
And another nice display featured Spanish editions of books.
I also liked that they had baskets you could carry your selections in. I don't recall seeing that at a library before.
Watchung Booksellers
Your community bookstore, Watchung Booksellers is a fantastic independent bookstore nestled in a section of Montclair that feels like the peaceful suburbia of an Anytown, USA.
Watchung Booksellers is a long, cozy store with curated collections of books sure to grab your attention. I'm pleased to announce that among their collection, you can find copies of my novel How to Get a Promotion When Your Boss Is Trying to Kill You for sale today!
The Tiny Elephant cafe and bakery is linked to the bookstore.
Their section on "Writing Matters" particularly caught my eye. Watchung Booksellers really is a part of the community, and they host a "Great Writers" book group on Fridays. They have all sorts of awesome community events if you check out their calendar.
I also loved the way they put handwritten tags on so many books with descriptions to show potential readers why they'd selected that book.
The walls throughout the store are painted with authors.
The blank notebook pillow is what's in focus in this photo, which is exactly what I was looking at! This Books for Africa program also sounds great.
Watchung Booksellers was selected by author Ian Frazier as his favorite bookstore to include in the book My Bookstore: Writers Celebrate Their Favorite Places to Browse, Read, and Shop. He wrote a few pages about it, but I particularly liked this part where he tried to capture the energy of the bookstore:
"At Watchung Booksellers there's a daily rhythm to the life of books. Kids are running around--a bookstore like this is where kids are first brought into the wider world of reading--and there are the sounds of conversations about books, and the humming quiet of the browsers, and the crisp tearing and folding of gift-wrap paper at the counter, and it smells like books, with that fresh, subtly seductive smell. Independent bookstores such as Margot's collaborate with writing in an intimate way that makes cyber bookselling seem merely retail... Watchung Booksellers is, valiantly, a place where all of us who love books can be right now."
During my conversation with the owner, I also learned the Watchung Books is the supplier of the books featured for sale at the Red Eye Cafe.
Red Eye Cafe
The Red Eye Cafe is where I'll be holding the debut reading of How to Get a Promotion When Your Boss Is Trying to Kill You on Sunday, September 9th at 5:30 PM. Please check it out if you're in the area. This is an after-hours event when the cafe is usually closed, so we're just going to be there for the reading, signing, and book discussion over the delicious coffee, tea, and snacks on offer. I've already spoken with a bunch of people who will be in attendance, and I know we're going to have quite the celebration!
The Red Eye Cafe is a super cool place to have a cup of specialty coffee or enjoy the scrumptious menu offerings.
I thought it was cool that their outdoor seating area is a chalkboard for people to write their bucket list items.
And as I mentioned, you can enjoy a great selection of books with your coffee!
That's right, after years of writing, editing, and other publishing magic, How to Get a Promotion When Your Boss Is Trying to Kill You is finally available for your eyeballs. As author Catherine Rankovic wrote, "Twists, laughs, and secret tiny mice fill Pascale's genuinely funny novel about the disquieting world of office work."
The novel is available for sale at Watchung Booksellers or at my book signing on September 9th. If you're not in the New York Metropolitan area, it is available at select brick-and-mortal locations working with Waldorf Publishing, or you can order it directly from the publisher here. It's also available at online retailers such as Amazon and Barnes & Noble if your membership with them makes it a better deal for you to have the book shipped. Please leave your review on GoodReads or Amazon after you've read it, as this supports authors and includes their books in search algorithms.

Q: control a Qt/C++/QML GUI application running on a embedded device from a remote client application? Scenario:
We have a Qt application(Qt 5.9.5,C++,QML,Ubuntu) running on a device (deals with telecommunications), which can also be viewed in a browser using webserver. All the operations done manually on the device have been visualized on the browser simultaneously.
Requirement: Now what we want to achieve is build a similar application(maybe web application) so that you execute it from a browser and simultaneously the application on the device should execute by itself. The device is just switched on initially. everything should be operated from the client application. What are the possible options?
We have started with Qt Remoteobjects to make a remote application but Qt version of device is older one when compared with Qt version of some functionalities in remote objects module. so using remote objects is not possible now.
Can Qt WebGL streaming helpful in this case?
Does QtWebchannel and websockets help by setting up communication with html/javascript application. Is it a possible solution?
Is virtual network computing (VNC) an option to think about in my scenario?
I have come across some concepts like Qt for WebAssembly, Web toolkit(Wt), Emscripten, Cutelyst web-framework, Qt for Automation - MQTT,OPC UA, KNX, CoAP . Do these really help at any point while developing a client application to control the QML GUI on a telecom. device?
Which of the options suits my scenario?
I have been following Qt's blogs about these related topics. Still not sure which method is suitable?
Sorry for a lengthy explanation. Kindly provide some suggestions.
Thank you.

I attended the Bigfoot conference in West Branch Michigan this past April. I met quit a few people there. Some very down to earth folk, and some not so much. But two guys in particular I got to know were Ernie, and Chuck. As typical with these types of town hall meetings the M C in charge asked everyone in attendance if they had any Bigfoot sightings. One of the people that stood up was Ernie. He mentioned the time he saw one cross his trail while hunting on his family property in Northeast Michigan. I could tell by his emotions while he was telling the story that he seemed quite shaken up by the sighting. Actually, there were a couple of people that seemed very believable and forth right with their stories, and some, were very far fetched.
Chuck, and Ernie got together during the conference and they made arrangements to go up to Ernie's property later that evening. It was Chuck, and his son, and Ernie and his girlfriend going up to Ernie's cabin. Here are the details as told by Chuck.
They got onto Ernie's property late afternoon. Ernie's family holds a huge expansive property in excess of 1100 acres, with several cabins, barns, and various other out buildings, and many two tracks roads, and lumber trails inter twinning throughout the property. Ernie decided to use his 4 wheeler to show Chuck around his property and they went as far back as they could, then they walked from there to a nearby cliff and made their way down to the Thunder bay river which runs through the length of the property. Chuck had mentioned how beautiful it was there and it reminded him of the wilderness of Colorado. So as they are walking down this trail it was Ernie, and Chuck's son ahead of them and Chuck and Ernie's girl friend coming up from behind when they heard a loud "Thud boom boom Thud" as if something heavy had hit the ground, Chuck said it sounded like a big bass drum going BOOM BOOM. They all stopped to give a listen and see if anything else developed. They then decided to do some wood knocks and some whoops. Well nothing came of this and it was starting to get dark so they made their way back to the 4 wheeler. By now it was totally dark and as they were making their way back to the cabin Chuck was focusing his spot light out into the darkness and catching some eye shine as they went. Mostly it was the local wildlife like deer, and elk, some porcupine, and even a huge barred owl. At this point Chuck said things really started to get weird. On the trail that they had originally came barreling down on, there was a large piece of tree jammed into the in the middle of the trail. This tree was not there when they first went down . They got off of their 4 wheeler and Chuck tried to get both of his arms around this tree to move it and it would not budge. It was driven, or slammed deep into this trail he figured at least a couple of feet. It was at this point that Chuck noticed a strong pungent,musky sulfur smell right at the spot where this tree was driven into the trail. Chuck knew then and there that this was probably the smell of a Bigfoot that he had read, and heard so many eye witnesses say they have encountered. His first instinct was to make sure he had his side arm safely on his hip just to make him feel secure. At this point Chuck, and Ernie got back on their 4 wheeler Ernie wanted to show him one of his other cabins he had on his property. Ernie some times stays there when he comes up to visit. The area was completely dark and Ernie was fumbling for his keys to unlock the door when they heard a low growl. They were not sure if this was some sort of a warning but as luck would have it Chuck's son was able to record this growl on his I phone.
They eventually headed back to the main cabin to settle in for the night. Later that evening, he figured around midnight , everyone was asleep when Chuck was awoken by a loud knock. He was not sure where it came from but he was suddenly wide awake. As he laid there he heard strange banging, almost like something was banging on metal not too far away. And there was also sounds of other movement and the scurrying of animals moving in the night. While he is looking out his window he saw a point of light in the back of the woods leading up to the house. It was at this point that he felt real FEAR and a feeling that he was being watched. Both he, and his son were frozen with fear, but Chuck had the presence of mind to go outside with some of his equipment to try to record what was going on. But this fear stayed with him. This was something he could not explain but it was like a wave of fear, or being ZAPPED. It was at this point that the light post along the side door mounted to the house started shaking and vibrating to the point it was tapping on the side of the house. He just stood at the door way observing what was happening right in front of his eyes. While all of this was going on he was listening to something move out in front of him about 30 yards. Moving through the leaves and brush very slowly. He could not see anything because the light post on the house was still vibrating and he could not focus on any object. He is not saying for sure it was Bigfoot, could of been a deer, raccoon or whatever but the whole situation totally freaked him and his son out.
The next day around 12:30pm they all went back out to the trail where the tree was shoved into the ground. Chuck was curious to see if that sulfur smell was still prevalent but by then it had dissipated. They walked the area one last time for that weekend just to see if there were any other strange things to uncover but that was it for the time being.
Chuck and Ernie said that they would be going back up and try to set up some game cameras and record anything else unusual. I'm sure there will be more of these stories coming up.
