'La Vie on Broadway' shines as brightly as its namesake

Near the end of November, I spent four days in New York City, where I saw three Broadway musicals. With pleasant memories still fresh in my consciousness, I was enthralled with "La Vie on Broadway" presented by Dance Kaleidoscope here in Indy. I attended Friday's performance of the concert, which runs through Jan. 12 on the Upperstage at Indiana Repertory Theatre.
Act 1 consisted of a series of pieces of titled "Give My Regards To…" choreographed by artistic director and dancer Stuart Coleman. DK's creations were set to songs from the musicals "Oklahoma!" "Hamilton," "Rent," "Hair," "The Last Five Years," "Les Misérables," and "Dear Evan Hansen." I was particularly captivated by these pieces because I had seen every show represented. Most recently, I saw the touring production of "Hamilton" in Indy and "Hansen" and the "OKLAHOMA!" revival in NYC.
I can still picture the original choreography for each of these shows due to their originality, but to experience Hochoy's and Coleman's takes on these mostly iconic show tunes gave me an appreciation for each of the artist's singular capabilities. Coleman choreographed "The Room Where It Happens," and "Burn" from "Hamilton," "Goodbye Until Tomorrow" from "The Last Five Years" and "You Will Be Found" from "Hansen." Hochoy's pieces were set to "Oh, What a Beautiful Mornin'," from "OKLAHOMA!" "Without You" from "Rent," "Bring Him Home," from "Les Misérables," and "The Flesh Failures/Eyes Look Your Last/Let the Sun Shine In (Medley)" from "Hair."

Coleman's obvious talent for choreography, under the tutelage of master teacher Hochoy, was revealed in his inventive pieces, reflecting his own gifts as a dancer, whose athleticism, personality and musicality always stand out. I especially enjoyed his uplifting interpretation through dance of Benj Pasek's and Justin Paul's hopeful "You Will Be Found," about friendship, understanding and support. Based on what I saw in this concert and past ones in which Coleman displayed his work, it is easy to predict that one day he will make a name for himself as a choreographer when he ends his performance career.
As far as the work of the master, Hochoy, once again, his pieces reflected his deep perception, sensitivity and understanding of the human condition. Particularly moving were Emily Dyson's and Aaron Steinberg's performance in "Without You," and Kieran King, showing star power in his exquisitely dramatic solo performance in Claude-Michel Schönberg's prayerful entreaty "Bring Him Home." King was simply magnificent.
"Piaf: A Celebraton" – Courtesy of Crowe's Eye Photography. Used with permission.
Act 2 saw a revival of Hochoy's "Piaf: A Celebration"which I consider one of his masterpieces, partly because I am a huge Piaf fan and dearly loved how he paid tribute to her music so eloquently. The piece was first presented at the 2011 IndyFringe Festival and later presented during DK's 2017 season. The sights and sounds of Paris abounded in "La Goualante du pauvre Jean," the first piece featuring the entire company. The magic continued through eight additional Piaf classics, right to the end of "La Foule." It featured the very appealing Aleska Lukasiewicz, along with the company, as they waltzed, dressed in Cheryl Sparks's elegant formal wear, and then danced to two of Piaf's most well-known songs "La Vie En Rose," and "Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien." Proof that Piaf is still relevant is the current use of the latter song in a Dove Chocolate commercial.
The combination of Guy Clark's and Spark's costumes and Laura Glover's lighting always makes for a theatrical experience that is a cut above and this concert was no exception. Frankly, their work matches the quality of anything I have seen on Broadway. No question about it.
With my recent sojourn to NYC still very much on my mind, I was thoroughly captivated with how successfully Coleman and Hochoy beautifully illustrated the lyrics of the chosen show tunes and the overall energy and glamour that the Great White Way embodies and represents. Coupled with the Piaf piece showcasing the singular vocals of the incomparable chanteuse, the concert, certainly one of DK's all-time most entertaining, kicked off my 2020 performing arts calendar with a resounding bang.

# Firefox OS Platform Guide

Ce guide décrit comment configurer votre environnement de développement pour créer des applications de Cordova pour appareils Firefox OS, puis de tester et de publier ces apps.

## Exigences et soutien

Firefox OS apps sont fondamentalement juste web apps, avec l'ajout d'un fichier manifest.webapp qui définit les métadonnées relatives à l'application et lui permet d'être installé sur Firefox OS appareils. N'importe quelle plate-forme qui supporte Cordova peut être utilisé.Pour en savoir plus sur la création d'applications web, consultez le [Centre App][1] sur [MDN][2].

 [1]: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Apps
 [2]: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/

## Installation et configuration de l'environnement

Commencez par installer [Node.js][3], puis installer le package de Cordoue comme suit :

 [3]: http://nodejs.org/

    $ npm install -g cordova

Ensuite, créez un exemple d'application Cordova, puis naviguer dans le répertoire nouvellement créé :

    $ cordova create test-app
    $ cd test-app

Ajouter Firefox OS comme une plate-forme prise en charge de l'application avec le texte suivant :

    $ cordova platform add firefoxos

Cela crée une application Firefox OS dans le répertoire de plates-formes/firefoxos/www, qui actuellement semble le même, sauf qu'il a un fichier de manifeste de Firefox (manifest.webapp) dans le répertoire www.

## Développer votre app

À ce stade, vous êtes prêt à aller, modifiez le code à l'intérieur de test-app/www et ce que vous voulez que votre application d'être. Vous pouvez ajouter la [prise en charge de plugins]() pour l'application à l'aide de "Ajouter cordova plugin", par exemple :

    cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-device
    cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-vibration

Lorsque le code de votre application est écrit, déployer les modifications apportées à l'application Firefox OS avec que vous avez ajouté à votre projet

    $ cordova préparer firefoxos

Pour créer une app emballé un peut zip du répertoire de plates-formes/firefoxos/www. Vous pouvez aussi tout simplement construire à l'aide

    $ cordova construire firefoxos

L'app emballé Firefox OS sera construit à platforms/firefoxos/build/package.zip

## Test et le débogage

L'app peut être testée en utilisant l' OS Firefox [Web IDE][4].

 [4]: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/WebIDE

Lorsque vous avez connecté l'IDE Web à votre périphérique/simulateur de test, sélectionnez l'option « Open App emballés », alors assurez-vous que vous pointez sur le test-app/plateformes/firefoxos/www/annuaire d'inclure l'application dans l'interface Manager.

Car ici, vous pouvez installer l'application sur votre appareil/simulateur de test (avec le bouton « Play »). À l'aide de la « Pause » bouton, vous pouvez déboguer l'application et modifier son code en direct.

Remarque : Avant d'essayer de publier votre application, vous devez envisager la validation à l'aide du [validateur de l'App][5].

 [5]: https://marketplace.firefox.com/developers/validator

## Publier votre application sur le Marketplace de Firefox

Vous pouvez soumettre votre application sur le marché de Firefox, ou publiez-le vous-même. Visitez la [Zone de marché de Firefox][6] le MDN pour obtenir des renseignements sur la façon de le faire ; [Options de publication App][7] est le meilleur endroit pour commencer.

Katy Perry and Taylor Swift Squash Feud Over a Plate of Chocolate Chip Cookies
Celebrity By TooFab Staff | 6/12/2019 7:27 AM PT
The Worst Celebrity Feuds View Photos
While Swift didn't post anything herself, she commented on Perry's photo with 13 heart emojis.
It looks like the long-running feud between Katy Perry and Taylor Swift has finally come to an end.
On Tuesday, Perry shared a post on Instagram that indicated not only was their beef squashed but also got fans hoping there could be an upcoming musical collaboration.
The "American Idol" judge's post's consisted a photo of a plate of what looked like homemade chocolate chip cookies with the words "peace at last" written in red icing on top of the plate. Perry captioned the post, "feels good @taylorswift" along with a heart emoji and tagged the "ME!" singer in the photo as well.
Perry also named the post's location as "Let's Be Friends."
While Swift didn't post anything herself, she commented on Perry's photo with 13 heart emojis. And according to fans, the amount of heart emojis might not be a coincidence as Swifties know 13 is the pop star's favorite number. Because of this, many people theorized a possible collaboration could be in the works between the former enemies.
"DO I SMELL A COLLAB" a fan asked. "So does this mean a collab is coming?!" another commented.
"a katy x taylor collab is COMING," a person added. Even Radio Disney's Instagram account chimed in and said, "So does this mean a collab is coming?!" Bachelor Nation's Lauren Bushnell also commented with a funny pun: "A batch made in heaven."

Most fans were thrilled the years-long feud had finally ended.
"This makes me so happy," a person wrote. "It's 2019 and strong women should come together and win it."
"Omgggggg!! We can't believe" a fan added and another said "OMG I CANT BREATHE. MY LIFE IS COMPLETE."

If you recall, Perry and Swift used to be friends way back in 2009. However, their friendship was said to have hit a roadblock when Perry became close to John Mayer, who was rumored to have previously dated Swift. The "Gravity" singer also dueted with Swift on her "Fearless" tour.
The drama escalated when backup dancers switched from Perry's tour to Swift's and then back again to Perry. The "Firework" songstress gave her side of the story regarding the dancer debacle on "The Late Late Show's" "Carpool Karaoke" in 2017.
Both Perry and Swift are each believed to have written a song about their rival at the time: Perry's 2017 hit "Swish Swish" and Swift's song "Bad Blood" in 2014.
Luckily, it seems like the bad blood is now gone for good.

Okay, it sounds dramatic. But it is pretty much true. For me, the turning point, the moment I seriously refocused my life and decided to pursue writing in a way I never had before happened on May 4, 1995. I was in surgery for a heart valve replacement for 17 hours that day. And in the course of the procedure I died seven times.
May 4th is, coincidentally, my bother Baris' birthday. I mention that because as a child I was frequently compared to him, as in "you look so much like Baris when you do that" or even just the causal mention that as my own birthday,May 7th, approached my mother and/or my father would mention how old Baris would have been – always twenty years and three days older than me. So, in a way I always lived int eh shadow of my brother's ghost.
The day I died seven times was an inflection point. I'm sure of that. The experience of the serious illness that damaged my heart value to the point that I needed the surgery changed the way I looked at the world. Before that I was a dedicated father but almost completely focused on the provider role. Although I had always spent some time with my three kids and their mother I mostly lived at work and for work. I was a true believer that if I worked hard and put in the long hours and showed dedication above and beyond expectations I'd advance through the pecking order of my company the rise to a level of management where I'd not have to worry much about money anymore. By the way, one of the many things I learned from the experiences of my illness was that there is no such point to be attained through working for anyone else.
A couple of things happened while I was ill. There was the three day weekend of a high fever, in excess of 104 at times. I had hallucinations and bizarre dreams but, moreover, I sort of experienced another world. Yeah, you can say it was all the fever, of course, if you need to believe that. But I recall being int he midst of a battle between many different creatures – a scene that ten years later I would write into The Wolfcat Chronicles.
I can say I've always been a writer. It is true that those of us who write compulsively are born with the gene. Whether it is a gift or a curse, a mutation or a birth defect, we don't have much of a choice. But until that fateful period of a month or so int he hospital with the only sources of entertainment being the O.J. Simpson Murder Trial on TV and reading computer magazines, something changed inside of me.
About two weeks after my surgery I was released from the hospital. I still had an IV attached through which I was receiving a steady dosage of antibiotics. And I had to visit the doctor regularly and frequently to ensure the tissue graft in my heart had taken well. It was three months before I returned to work. And even after I returned I was on sort of restricted duty for a while.
In that time of recuperation I had nothing better to do that to continue my ongoing project of digitizing all my typewritten pages of a manuscript that I had been working on since college – that five years later I would submit to a publisher as Book One of my first science fiction novel One Over X. I also spent a lot more time with my kids and got to know them a lot better. Despite my being gone to work so much of the time they had turned out to be some pretty amazing people.
Maybe I didn't become a writer that day but I have become the writer that I am because of what happened to me fourteen and a half years or so ago.


One of the most significant additions to Python's standard library in recent years is the inclusion of the multiprocessing library. First introduced in Python 2.6, multiprocessing is often pitched as an alternative to programming with threads. For example, you can launch separate Python interpreters in a subprocess, interact with them using pipes and queues, and write programs that work around issues such as Python's Global Interpreter Lock, which limits the execution of Python threads to a single CPU core.
Although multiprocessing has been around for many years, I needed some time to wrap my brain around how to use it effectively. Surprisingly, I have found my own use differs from those often provided in examples and tutorials. In fact, some of my favorite features of this library tend not to be covered at all.
In this column, I decided to dig into some lesser-known aspects of using the multiprocessing module.

Counselling/psychotherapy is not a sign that you are failing or 'weak' in any way. On the contrary in fact, it can be hard work and is in no way an easy option. By visiting this site, you have already probably recognised an area of your life where you feel you would like more insight and understanding, or perhaps areas where you would like to develop personally.
I do not make false promises. Many websites of this nature advertise 'quick fixes' but unfortunately, lasting change is not that easy and advertisements that say otherwise are rarely effective. Counselling/psychotherapy is an investment not just financially but also emotionally and this type of investment can be both challenging and rewarding. It has the potential to be life changing, not only for you but for those around you. Indeed as a result, you may find that not only can you resolve current or past issues, but you can also deal with new challenges more effectively as well as gaining a higher sense of self-awareness, leading you to live a more fulfilling life. I am a registered and accredited member of the British Association of Counsellors & Psychotherapists (BACP), member of EMDR Europe and also the Counselling Directory.
Counselling/psychotherapy is confidential, led at your pace and will be re-assessed at regular intervals to ensure that you are getting what you need. Appointments are usually on a weekly basis and the number of sessions you will require will depend on many factors. Some people require several sessions, whereas some require substantially longer, depending on the nature of the problem. You are never obliged to stay in therapy for longer than you feel you want to.

The unreal UK election
By Angus Reoch
Living in England and able to vote through a useful piece of Commonwealth legal archaeology, the recent UK election appeared to me at first to resemble the Australian 2013 election: two unpopular parties jockeying for control amidst an increasing tendency to opt for third parties. While to many the Conservatives were anathema, the option of Labour carried little appeal, an insight which has handily been proven by their staggering defeat. The dominant narrative on the left, seemingly the obvious and correct strategy, was to elect Labour as a holding motion and to press onwards afterward for greater progressive change: on 8 May it was to be 'more democracy, more democracy, more democracy', to use the words of Russell Brand. Similar sentiments were echoed by his contemporary, Owen Jones: that voting Labour is the first step towards turning away from an increasingly ugly and transparently unequal society.
It is simple to dismiss Jones and Brand as petit-bourgeois liberal-leftists who sold out their base by becoming complicit with the Labour party. The political implications of this argument notwithstanding – as if 'pessimism of the mind, optimism of the will' is somehow irrational – both commentators nonetheless have an obvious affinity with and concern for the great masses of marginalised Britons: drug addicts, single mothers, the homeless, long-term unemployed and unimportant, and if their welfare was a priority over political purity then it was not unreasonable to strive for the most immediate if admittedly partial remedy. Nonetheless, it did not pay off: there was too great a hope in the potential for the UK state to be able to reincorporate the kinds of people that Bruce Springsteen writes songs about.
How long can these people really hold off, before things become not just ugly but violent? Where do the Joneses and Brands go now that their hope for the reconsolidation of power has failed? Underlying their message is a notion of urgency, a patent sense of disconnect between the lived experience of society and the ruling power bloc. For them, Miliband's Labour bloc represented at best a partial reconciliation or reorganisation through its seeming recognition of the plight of the alienated in society, of the crisis that British liberal democracy faces, standing in stark contrast to the triumphalism of the Conservatives, now apparently vindicated in their regime of austerity and deliberate social marginalisation.
Yet these forces which lie beneath the pronouncements of Jones and Brand will not simply disappear. Even cynical interpretations of liberal democracy, such as Nazi jurist Carl Schmitt's evisceration of the Weimar Republic, still operate on the basis of power being effectively shared at some level. It may be through political conflict that power occurs, as opposed to governmental administration in liberal democracy, but Schmitt operates under the assumption that these various forces are actually representative of political groups in society. It is this logical corollary of Schmitt's diagnosis which is explored by Marxist Antonio Gramsci in his attempt to theorise the changing bases of power in liberal democratic societies. What Gramsci would find in modern Britain is a society ever closer to populist revolt: one in which the sovereignty invoked by the ruling class is paper-thin, reliant upon the power of repression and ideology, in the thin, propagandist sense of the term. Lacking in organic intellectuals or any connection to civil society, political society knows not its own fragility.
We should not forget how tenacious these power bases are and how effective their co-option of social unrest has proven to be. It bears repeating that the second greatest economic crash in modern history has not induced a left-wing backlash but a formal tightening of the screws, one which has been accepted as harsh but nonetheless legitimate. The successful exploitation by governments worldwide of people's genuine sense of guilt, be it social, economic or ecological, has cultivated a society-wide admission of neglect which accepts the corresponding punishment of austerity. It is not a coincidence that austerity appears to be administered from above, by nameless networks of power operating in mysterious ways.
Various attempts to predict the death knell of austerity, neoliberalism and capitalism have proven to be optimistic and improperly formed at best: the writer is allowed to engage in speculation precisely because it is their business, and throwaway predictions are a regular part of this social function, a fact which Marxists and other social theorists would do well to remember. Nonetheless, what is captured well by populist writers such as Jones and Brand is this very keen understanding of the disconnect between the power postulated on television by various politicians, and the daily lived experiences of most Britons. The victory of Cameron's Conservatives, far from a consolidation of a new regime à la Thatcherism or New Labour, is more akin to the crude joke of Marx's Eighteenth Brumaire: first as tragedy, then as farce. Far outside the seemingly-regular progression in history in which the various populisms of the left and right would have come to conflict in parliament, an insurgent UKIP against a bolstered Labour-led left with the Tory ruling class attempting to hang onto power, these social forces have been entirely unrepresented. As a student of Hegel, it is plain to see that the contradictions of society have simply not been borne out. Similar occurrences, such as the rise and demise of the US Tea Party may indeed be contradictory, but its initial electoral success established it as a progression of some form. In Britain, what was plainly present in society in the form of inevitable coalition government was silenced upon its impact with the actual political sphere. The election result was not even a mitigation as much as a complete lack of acknowledgement.
As a left-wing Australian living within Tony Abbott's own electorate, the Coalition's victory in 2013 was a dismal result, but one which was nonetheless an accurate representation of the state of affairs in Australian politics. Unlike the UK election, it did not totally dissolve civil society into the realm of a single reified number. This has little bearing on politicians' personal disconnect with voters, real as that may be. Rather, the dominant narrative that the Conservatives have secured power is simply misguided: they have not. What at least was a passive revolution in Scotland – a wholesale change in the composition of political elites if not in political structure – was unmatched in England, in which no new power bloc was constructed. While successfully playing upon an obviously illogical and anachronistic voting system in combination with the brute force of propaganda and fear mongering, this victory will be tendentious at best. With no formal representation, there is little need or inclination for the populace to accept the legitimacy of the UK state or the sovereignty invoked by its ruling class. What the Tories have affirmed is the reductionist orthodox Marxist-Leninist theory of the state, which sees its power embodied in its brute force, money and ideological opiate for the masses. Aside from these very real power bases of the military, police, big business and newspapers, there is no organic coalition of conservative strength in Britain. It sought a plebiscitary endorsement and received all 25% that it required to continue its rule.
This was obviously effective enough to overcome the attempt at partial reconciliation embodied in the Labour Party, running a fine line between maintaining establishment policies and acting as the listening ear which Brand claimed to have witnessed in Miliband. What Owen Jones can hear with his ear to the ground does not necessarily translate into a coherent political project, let alone electoral success. The anti-establishmentarian politics of left populism, while deeply sympathetic, are rooted in a republican invocation of 'the people' which is necessarily tied to an assertion of state sovereignty: it is not difficult to see how a genuine concern that society is failing its citizens can transmogrify into support for UKIP. When the subject of citizenry is at hand, its nature can never be far separated from its boundaries. The populist anti-immigration perspective can be summarised as an assertion of reconsidering the individual's rights in society in relation to their welfare, in order to redefine who society should belong to. This subordination of the individual to the needs of society is an argument uncomfortably close to those proffered by Italy's Fascists, and represents the dark side of all forms of populism.
The result of the UK election is that this populist assertion of sovereignty will only grow stronger. What could perhaps have been at least partially resolved in administration, through a broad easing of austerity and tightening of immigration, now gives way to an entirely unencumbered party rule. The Cameron government will ride high upon the tempest of decisionism, declaring its orders and imperatives with a Zeus-like might. Beneath the tides vast currents swell, their tremors and murmurs unheard by the good ship Tory, its newspaper masts buffeted by an unexpected wind, full speed ahead into the dark clouds that it declares as sign of its own mastery over the world. Storms may be weathered, turmoil may not lead to defeat, populist victory may be harbinger of a much more brutal state than liberal democracy. 'The old world is dying away, and the new world struggles to come forth: now is the time of monsters.'

Q: Give the option in admin to change custom module route on frontend Say on frontend your main module page is www.website/test/
etc/frontend/routes.xml:
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:App/etc/routes.xsd">

            <module name="Vendor_Name" />
        </route>
    </router>
</config>

In the admin I've built a list of settings. Among those I would like to give the option to change "test" into something else.
So, depending on client's needs, he can change that link.
How would I go about doing that? Just some general hints would be really helpfull.
Thanks!

The royal family have been on an epic Canadian adventure and we are loving every moment of it. It's the first major trip for the 17-month-old Princess Charlotte, and she's definitely stealing the show.
During a reception for military families that the royals were guests at, Princess Charlotte and her just-as-adorable older brother Prince George had a fantastic time playing with everything they could get their hands on.
Charlotte especially seemed to love the balloon displays that were set up as decoration all around.
Every chance she got, Charlotte was off to check them out.
And, according to People, she even spoke her first public words because of the balloons by saying, "pop pop."
Charlotte and the rest of her beautiful family seemed to enjoy all the balloon options, though she was arguably the most fascinated.

The sweet little royal reached unbearable levels of cuteness when she smiled big after playfully slapped at the colorful balloons she saw.
And despite the fact that she wanted them to "pop pop," they luckily seemed pretty sturdy.
The whole party looked like a great deal of fun for the two siblings. George sat on a pony while Charlotte made all sorts of other animal friends.
But, it was hearing Charlotte's first words that was easily the highlight of this playdate. We can't believe how fast she and George have grown and are looking forward to many more too-cute-to-handle moments from them in the future!


Beatrice began by saying that in the absence of Larry she, as vice chair, would be chairing the meeting. She welcomed everyone to the meeting and began by introducing Board members and giving apologies from Larry Robertson and Grenville Hopkinson. She reminded those present that the purpose of the AGM was to give parents the opportunity to raise questions in relation to the Annual Report which they had received access to two weeks earlier. She said that this meeting could of course only deal with issues that could be discussed in a public forum, and also said that the General Body had been asked to raise any specific issues they wanted to discuss at the meeting in writing by Friday 11th June. One question had been received which would be raised under AOB.
Beatrice then said that a second purpose of the meeting was to hold elections should there be any Board vacancies in the coming year. Parents had been notified that there were two vacancies for Parent Board members but that only one nomination had been received for Ujjal Rajbandhari. As there had been no other nominations Ujjal had been elected unopposed. Beatrice then asked Ujjal to introduce himself which he did.
Beatrice asked if these minutes, which had been posted on the website, were a true record of last year's AGM and could be accepted. David Bruce proposed to accept the minutes, seconded by Mark Vickers. There were no objections and and the minutes of the 2009 AGM were formally approved.
Beatrice said that this was an informal verbal report as the full written report had already been made available to parents. She merely wished to reiterate certain highlights. She said the Board were satisfied with the results achieved by the school in external examinations and also very pleased that the newly formed sixth form was now firmly established with 14 students having completed their A levels along with 22 having taken IGCSE exams, many of whom will progress next year to Year 12. She welcomed the way in which the school continues to attract high numbers of new students thanks to the high standards of teaching and learning. She ended by thanking all staff for their consistently high quality of teaching and support and particularly thanked those staff who would be leaving TBS and wished them all the best for their ongoing careers.
There were no questions after this report.
Sandj said this had been a very busy year for TBS and that as always at this time of year there were several farewells, although the numbers leaving were not as high as they sometimes were at this stage of the year. There is a healthy waiting list and many of those on it will be replacing children who are leaving although she did emphasise that TBS had standards of admission which meant that those wishing to apply did not automatically gain a place.
Sandj said that the school's community links continued to thrive and students had been on many residential trips. Other community links had included a formal arrangement with Sunrise Boarding School as two TBS teaching assistants had been at school with the founder who had died this year. Her young son was keen to take over management of the school along with his aunt and was looking for advice from TBS. This was being achieved by TBS Senior Management Team organising ongoing support, observation and linked sporting events. Sandj had carried out a mini inspection of the school and was very impressed with how much it was achieving despite its small resources. Meanwhile ongoing links had continued between TBS and Early Learning Centre teachers who had been observing the younger children's classes at TBS. The ongoing link whereby Rato Bangla students spend three weeks at TBS was also continuing.
Sandj then went on to talk about school themed weeks including the Creative Arts week which was taking place this week and had involved many musical performances. She also said that each class was continuing to support an individual Nepali charity. Pastoral care at the school continued to be a major feature, and a very successful parents' workshop on ways in which parents could best support their child's learning had been held.
Work on the New Site was progressing although as all parents already know it has taken considerably longer than was originally envisaged. David will be leaving the staff at the end of this year but others will be carrying on with the role he has been performing. Building will start very soon and completion should happen in the next two years. The architect's plans are now finalised and children have been very involved in bringing forward their suggestions including the need to plan for a boarding facility and also a proper canteen.
Hilary Oatley asked whether staff as well as children had been involved in drawing up the plans and Sandj confirmed that this certainly had been the case.
Beatrice asked if there were any other questions either on Sandj's verbal report or on the written annual report.
Alan Reid noted that there had been an item on the report which spoke about a questionnaire sent to all exam cohorts asking how well they felt they had been prepared for their exam and what they felt had helped and what could have been improved. He asked if there had been any negative feedback. Sandj said that, as had been reported in the annual report, the main requests had been for more help with note taking and opportunities to work on past papers. These were both issues raised by a significant number of respondents.
Marjan Slaats asked whether these questionnaires were given out to all exam cohorts and Sandj confirmed that they were, including those who had taken A levels and were no longer at the school.
Bas began by saying that next year's fee increase would be 8%. He recognised that this was a little higher than that of the past few years but still significantly less than the rate of inflation in Nepal which the school was having to cope with. Other reasons for the slightly higher fee increase were that with the acquisition of land and the costs already associated with building the new school there needed to be a slightly more conservative approach to budgeting. Also, 12 years ago the then Board had agreed that the school should always have in reserve a 5% buffer to cover all eventualities which can occur in the potentially volatile context of international schools (political instability, sudden drops in numbers etc.). This percentage had in the past few years dropped below 5% and it was felt important to work towards restoring it.
Beatrice asked for questions in relation to the Budget.
Mrs Joshi asked if the budget sheet which Bas had shown included budgeting for the new site. Bas said it did not and that the new construction came under a separate budget and was being financed by proceeds from the school's capital fund which would be supplemented by a bank loan. This budget only dealt with day to day running of the school.
Marjan Slaats asked what was included under the heading 'school costs' and was told this included all including general upkeep costs including rent.
Alan Reid queried the very high staff student ratio for next year under the Nursery column. Bas replied that this was an anomaly caused by the way in which the school had divided its costs for the purpose of this budget separating costs of expatriate staff from locally employed staff. Nursery children will next year be receiving a certain amount of input from a range of staff across the primary sector. However, the main nursery teacher for next year is a Nepali member of the teaching staff. The current nursery teacher handed in her notice too late for a replacement to be advertised during the annual recruitment process and although Sandj had asked primary applicants if they would be prepared to teach a nursery class none had said yes. She had discussed the issue at depth with the Senior Management Team who felt that the post of lead teacher could very ably be filled by one of the existing Teaching Assistants who has a degree, speaks excellent English, has had significant nursery training and fourteen years experience.
Alan Reid then asked how much the school spent on equipment as one of his sons had reported that he had needed to share equipment during a science exam. Bas replied that he could not give an instant reply to this but that each head of section put in a request for the special equipment that they needed for their subject area and the Board expected this to be sufficient.
Alan then asked various questions about why parents had not been presented with an audited copy of accounts. Bas replied that the financial management of the school had suffered a severe setback when the Bursar (for reasons unrelated to the school) had had to leave his post suddenly during a period when the school was just shifting to computerised accounting. Although the books had been audited as soon as the previous Bursar had left, this was not an end of year audit but rather an interim control measure. With the combination of his loss and the shift to computerised accounts it had taken a considerable length of time to reorganise affairs. The situation now was that an external audit has been carried out for the past two years and this was very recently presented to the Board who are currently examining it. As soon as these two audits have been approved by the Board they will be sent to all parents along with a postal voting slip on which parents can say whether or not they are happy with them. The audit report for the running year will be dealt with in the same way.
Alan said he felt that there had been a degree of irresponsibility in regard to the presentation of audited accounts. Beatrice as chair accepted that it was very unfortunate and apologised sincerely. She said that she was sure the situation would be resolved very shortly and the correct audit reports would be sent to all parents within the first term of the coming school year.
Marjan Slaats asked if audits were carried out by an approved external agency and was assured that this was always the case.
Beatrice said that one question had been raised by a group of three members of the teaching staff regarding information given about 360 monitoring in the annual report. As background, parents were told that the school had started 360 monitoring three years ago initially only for the Principal and then for Principal and Senior Management Team. 360 monitoring is a holistic, all round review unlike the usual top down forms of appraisal. Questionnaires are filled in by teaching staff, Governors, and a random selection of one in seven parents. As last year's monitoring had not revealed any significant changes and many parents had not completed their questionnaires it was felt that it might be more effective to carry it out every other year. However, the three members of teaching staff who had sent in the question said that they felt it was an important review and would like it to happen annually. They had also raised the point that in previous years the questionnaire had been sent out very near the beginning of the first term which was not the best timing for new members of staff.
Beatrice replied that she was pleased that the staff valued the review and she felt sure the Board would be happy to reinstate it as an annual event. She said that this, and also looking for more appropriate timing, would both be raised at the first Board meeting of next academic year.
Mrs Joshi asked whether the 360 review might also be extended to include teacher appraisal. The reply was that this would certainly be looked into although Sandj did point out that there was already a parents' questionnaire sent out every two years in which parents could inform the school about how they felt about the teaching their child was receiving.
Mrs Joshi asked whether the school had a system of performance monitoring of teachers and Sandj said that all teachers had their performance regularly monitored by their line manager which resulted in them working towards agreed new targets every year.
Marjan Slaats asked whether the school only recruited teachers from the UK. Beatrice replied that there was no ruling on this. The only criteria was that teachers were fully and adequately trained. They were selected on the basis of qualifications and experience and although, given equal qualifications we would prefer to employ UK trained teachers, because we taught to the UK curriculum, UK training was not a prerequisite.
Beatrice drew the meeting to a close thanking, on behalf of Larry Robertson, Sandj and all the staff for their very hard work this year. She also thanked Kim as parent liaison officer and all the members of the Parent Teacher Association for the work they had put into organising events. Finally she thanked all her fellow members of the Board for the consistent way in which they voluntarily gave their time to support the school.

Srinagar: The Court of 1st Additional Sessions Judge, Srinagar today gave orders to shift Dukhtaran-e-Millat (DeM) chief Aasiyeh Andrabi and her close aide Fahmeeda Sofi to Srinagar central jail, DeM spokesperson Nahida Nasreen said.
The duo was detained at Amphala jail, Jammu in April this year under Public Safety Act (PSA) for three months which was later on extended, she added.
"Though Aasiyeh's PSA was quashed on 31 August, she is undertrial in an old case and was produced before the court and has been sent to judicial custody," Nasreen told Narrator.
"Aasiyeh's health is deteroirating and she needs immediate medical attention. Her continuous detention, however, has hampered her recovery and we fear that the ailment may prolong," she said.


Abstract: Sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping is a critical procedure for SLN biopsy and its diagnosis as tumor metastasis in clinical practice. However, SLN mapping agents used in the clinic frequently cause side effects and complications in the patients. Here, we report the development of a near-infrared (NIR) emitting polymeric nanogel with hydrodynamic diameter of ~28 nm – which is the optimal size for SLN uptake – for noninvasive fluorescence mapping of SLN in a mouse. This polymeric nanogel was obtained by coupling Cy7, an NIR dye, to the self-assembled nanogel from disulfide-linked dextran-deoxycholic acid conjugate with the dextran of 10 kDa, denoted as Dex–Cy7. Fluorescence imaging analysis showed that Dex–Cy7 nanogels had an enhanced photostability when compared to Cy7 alone. After intradermal injection of Dex–Cy7 nanogel into the front paw of a mouse, the nanogels were able to migrate into the mouse's axillary lymph node, exhibiting longer retention time and higher fluorescence intensity in the node when compared to Cy7 alone. An immunohistofluorescence assay revealed that the nanogels were localized in the central region of lymph node and that the uptake was largely by the macrophages. In vitro and in vivo toxicity results indicated that the dextran-based nanogels were of low cytotoxicity at a polymer concentration up to 1,000 µg/mL and harmless to normal liver and kidney organs in mice at an intravenous dose of 1.25 mg/kg. The results of this study suggest that NIR-emitting polymeric nanogels based on bioreducible dextran-deoxycholic acid conjugates show high potential as fluorescence nanoprobes for safe and noninvasive SLN mapping.


It's a hot night. Too hot. He snores, thunderous and incessant. She lies awake, mind racing. It's nearly three and sleep is critical. Work tomorrow, big day. There are two obvious solutions but she's unsure whether their relationship will tolerate either. If she wakes him, however gently, she'll have to explain; he'll take offence and then, most likely, resume. If she sneaks to the spare room yes, she'll sleep, but she'll feel bad. And he, waking, will take her departure as abandonment and critique. Either way she loses. So there she lies, wondering why he gets to sleep at her expense and she gets to feel ashamed.
In truth, this run-of-the-mill snafu is less about the robustness of the relationship than the robustness of his masculinity. We've heard much, of late, about toxic masculinity; the anger, the entitlement, the will-to-dominion. But anger masks fear. Behind toxic masculinity lies a more delicate (and more dangerous) secret, fragile masculinity.
Consider this marvellous line from the second season of Harlots, SBS On Demand's Georgian period drama.
The grammar is daggy but the sentiment is spot on. And women aren't the only victims. Nature too bears the brunt. The world is being shoved off a cliff not by masculinity's strength but by its terrifying fragility.
Fragile masculinity is fear pressurised into rage; fear of losing control - of liberated femininity, of mysterious nature, of a world bucking its traces, of chaos. The anger is a desperate attempt to reinstate that control, illusory as it may always have been.
Stoically, the planet has housed and nourished us, tolerated us. But it can't last. A dominance relationship is never sustainable, human-to-human or human-to-nature. Winning? To win this battle is to lose. The era of collaboration is here.
But this is no simple masculinity-is-evil equation. Indeed, what's interesting is how energetically we all connive at propping up this fragile model of maleness. It's as though we're all afraid of what might happen if masculinity were an ordinary thing like femininity or childhood. We need the fable of male control to feel safe. But this very myth, this co-dependency, puts us all at risk.
Shame, she says, is "absolutely organised by gender". For women, shame instructs "be perfect". To men it says: "Never be perceived as weak." But shame is not guilt. Guilt helps change behaviours whereas shame internalises, manifesting as addiction, anger, violence and bullying. Vulnerability – which turns shame into guilt, into change - is not weakness but courage.
Male anger is leading us over a cliff. If men can find the strength to be truly vulnerable, they deserve to lead. If not, if they persist in this fragile rage, it'll be up to Rosie the Riveter to save the day. Why? Because there is no spare room to sleep in.

Hercules vs. Moloch (, , also released as Conquest of Mycenae) is a 1963 Italian/French international co-production peplum film written and directed  by Giorgio Ferroni and starring Gordon Scott. The film reuses battle scenes from Ferroni's 1961 film The Trojan Horse.

Plot
The city-state of Mycenae is able to dominate the rest of the nearby city-states due to its impregnable fortress. Led by a facially deformed King who believes himself Moloch incarnated, the madman demands slaves as tribute, where he tortures and kills a selected few. Prince Glaucus from Tiryns has an idea to seize and destroy Mycenae from within. Using the name of Hercules, he poses as one of the slaves given to Mycenae in tribute.

He becomes a gladiator, but he secretly plots to lead a revolution and destroy the creature that has enslaved the people.

Cast
Gordon Scott as Prince Glauco (Glaucus) a.k.a. Ercole (Hercules)
Alessandra Panaro as Medea, Queen of Tiryns
Rosalba Neri as Demetra, Queen of Mycenae
Arturo Dominici as Penteo (Penthius), General of Mycenae
Michel Lemoine as Oineo (Euneos)
Jany Clair as Deianira
Nerio Bernardi as Asterione (Asterion), the High Priest
Giovanni Pazzafini as Archiloco (Archepolos)
Geneviève Grad as Pasifaë
Pietro Marascalchi as Moloch

Release
Hercules vs. the Moloch was released in Italy on December 21, 1963. It was released in the United States by December 15, 1965.

Reception
From contemporary reviews, the Monthly Film Bulletin reviewed a 91 minute dubbed version. The film stated that the plot was "completely routine" and its ending was  "over-extravagant", the "Herculean hero is at least credited with a distinct measure of intelligence" noting that "the question of sheer physical strength is reated ambigulously [...] There is no penny-pinching in the staging; hundreds of extras are used for the big battle scenes, which really do succeed in giving the effect of an army and not merely a platoon."

Johann Heinrich Lütkens, auch Johann Hinrich Lütkens (* 1. Januar 1746 in Hamburg; † 2. Februar 1814 ebenda) war ein deutscher evangelisch-lutherischer Geistlicher und Dichter.

Leben
Johann Heinrich Lütkens studierte Evangelische Theologie und wurde nach Beendigung seines Studiums am 19. Juni 1772 unter die Kandidaten des Hamburgischen Geistlichen Ministeriums aufgenommen. 1778 wurde er zum Diaconus (2. Pastor) und Garnisonsprediger in Ratzeburg berufen.

Am 25. November 1782 wurde er zum Pastor von St. Nikolai in Moorfleet gewählt. Hier blieb er bis an sein Lebensende. Er starb im Winter der Belagerung Hamburgs, als das besetzte Moorfleet geplündert und zur Schaffung eines freien Schussfeldes großenteils abgebrannt wurde.

Am 1. Dezember 1778 hatte er Catharina Elisabeth Ernestine († 1820), geb. Westphalen, geheiratet, eine Tochter des Hamburger Senators Johann Siegmund Westphalen. Das Paar hatte einen Sohn und fünf Töchter. Der einzige Sohn Hermann Siegmund Lütkens (* 13. Juli 1787; † 6. Juli 1849) wurde Lehrer und ab 1813 Leiter einer anfangs sehr erfolgreichen Privatschule. Er war verheiratet mit der Malerin und Lehrerin Doris Lütkens. Von den Töchtern heiratete die Älteste den Hofrat Friedrich Ludwig Fidler, der eine Erziehungsanstalt in Schiffbek leitete; eine jüngere, Caroline Auguste, heiratete 1821 Carl Wilhelm Stuhlmann, Pastor zu Allermöhe.

Lütkens war Verfasser des von Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach vertonten Gartenlieds sowie der Texte der Einführungsmusiken für die Pastoren Christian Ludewig Gerling (1777, H82h) und Friderici (H82g). Die Einführungsmusik für Gerling wurde, geringfügig verändert, auch bei seiner eigenen Einführung am 29. Januar 1783 verwendet.

A history of Mother's Day
Throughout history, Mother's Day has been a way of showing love and gratitude to the women who raised us; whether that be with a bunch of flowers or a box of chocolates. You may be surprised to learn how its meaning, and the attitudes of people towards this day, have actually changed over the centuries
The earliest known celebrations of Mother's Day are thought to have begun with the ancient Greeks and Romans who honoured the goddesses of motherhood, Rhea and Cybele. In the UK, what we now know as Mother's Day dates back to the 1600s. On the fourth Sunday of Lent, a church service honouring the Virgin Mary would take place and children would buy gifts and flowers to show their gratitude to their own mothers.
By the 19th century however, this celebration had all but died out, only being revived after World War 2, when American servicemen bought back the custom to the UK. It was, in fact, an American woman named Anna Jarvis who breathed new life into Mother's Day. Following her mother's death Anna set about campaigning to have Mother's Day marked as an annual holiday, as a way of honouring the sacrifices mothers make for their children.
However, after successfully having Mother's Day added to the national calendar, it wasn't long before merchants capitalised on its popularity and Jarvis quickly became enraged by how commercialised this special day had become. She felt that this was a day to be spent showing how much you appreciated your mother, not necessarily through gifts but by spending time together. She spent the rest of her life campaigning to have Mother's Day removed from the calendar, although ultimately she was unsuccessful.
In the UK, the date of Mother's Day varies from year to year but is normally in late March or early April depending on the date of Easter; this is because it always falls on the fourth Sunday of Lent.
Mother's Day is celebrated in over 40 countries around the world although not all of us celebrate this occasion on the same day.
Children in Japan celebrate Mother's Day by drawing pictures of their mothers, called My Mother; these are then entered into an exhibit that travels to many different countries around the world.
Mother's Day is of huge importance in Taiwan as it falls on the same date as the Buddha's birthday – the second Sunday in May.
In Yugoslavia and Serbia Mother's Day is celebrated two weeks before Christmas.


EVANSTON, IL- In this city, the phrase "wait till next year" is a natural part of the local dialect. It specifically refers to the Chicago Cubs' postseason ineptitude since 1908. (And if early returns are any indication, things will likely not change this October.
But the phrase also applies to another Chicago area team: the Northwestern Wildcats, who have the dubious distinction in the college football world of zero bowl wins since 1949. And they've plenty of chances: 1995, 1996, 2000, 2003, 2005, 2008, and 2009. The connection between the two teams grew even stronger yesterday, as it was formally announced that the Wildcats will play their in-state rivalry game with Illinois at the Cubs' home of Wrigley Field this fall. The revelation created even more optimistic buzz within the program.
Today, the day of the NU spring scrimmage concluding spring football practice, is the first major step towards ending the 0-for-7 drought. And this same feeling of eternal optimism is present on campuses everywhere during this college football Saturday. Well, it's sort of a college football Saturday.
