Where five roads meet outside Haymarket Railway Station in Edinburgh a small forest of traffic lights controls the comings and goings of people and vehicles. From somewhere underground the wail of a train adds to the noise.
Yet minutes away from this kaleidoscope of activity, Palmerston Place offers an escape. St. Mary's Episcopalian Cathedral dominates this part of Edinburgh's New Town and immediately draws the eye. Two ladies, the Misses Walker, heirs of Sir Patrick Walker on whose land this part of the city was developed, left their fortune to the Episcopal Church on condition the money had to be used to build a cathedral for the diocese of Edinburgh. Twin spires at the western end of the building are accordingly named Barbara and Mary in their memory.
At the main entrance, intricate stone carvings are worth a close look while inside the church a daily choral service has been a tradition since 1879. The choir perfects its music in the nearby Song School, a modest building which blends with the surroundings to give little indication of the richness of the murals enlightening every inch of the inside walls by the artist Phoebe Anna Traquair (1852 – 1936).
Carry on down Palmerston Place to the bottom of the hill then turn left onto Belford Bridge. From here you can enjoy views over the river, the Water of Leith, before rounding the bend into Belford Road to seek out the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art housed in a former school building. It's well worth finding the paintings by the Scottish colourists Francis Cadell, John Duncan Ferguson, Samuel John Peploe and G.L. Hunter .
Outside, the lawn in front of the gallery has been landscaped to a design by Charles Jenks. Called Landform, the stepped grass mound winds a way round pools of water that mirror the passing clouds overhead.
Across the road, the Dean Gallery is home to the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art Two. Here there are works by surrealist artists Pablo Picasso and Robert Penrose but most arresting is the sculpture entitled Vulcan1990 by Sir Eduardo Paolozzi. This shiny metal figure standing nearly 30ft tall portrays a half man, half machine – a monument to the modern age. Vulcan, the Roman god of fire and blacksmiths, forged weapons for gods and heroes.
A path by the side of the lawn in front of the art gallery leads to an exit and, partially hidden by ivy, a doorway with steps leading down to the Water of Leith and the walkway which follows the course of the river. Though the city centre is only minutes away this is a green oasis enlivened by birdsong.
At Dean Village, new houses compliment the original stone buildings. Some of them, with crow stepped gables, were once meal mills, woollen mills or tanneries powered by the Water of Leith.
In turn, the river was used as an open sewer for waste. Now the mill buildings have been converted into sought after waterside homes and offices with something of the character of a rural hamlet remaining.
The Water of Leith also receives lots of attention. Work is on-going to improve the water quality, remove rubbish, protect wildlife and maintain the walkway from Balerno, south of Edinburgh, to the sea at Leith.
From Dean Village, a sign points out the continuation of the path under Dean Bridge built in 1829-31 to a design by Thomas Telford. Bridge traffic is constant but far below, beneath a supporting arch, little can be heard.
Further along the river bank, a Roman temple, an open rotunda, has pillars enclosing a statue of Hygeia, Greek goddess of health. She holds a large jar in one hand and in the other, an urn, tilted in the direction of a serpent that curls up the stump of a tree. This is St. Bernard's Well.
From the late 1700s the supposed healing powers of the mineral waters were an attraction on the tourist trail. Though the well waters are not in use today, Stockbridge, hardly any distance from here, still caters for visitors.
This is a thriving area of the city with an air of confidence and the feel of a self-contained village. As well as a choice of cafes and pubs, there are fish, fruit and vegetable shops, butchers, bakers and candlestick makers, a cheesemonger and florists all within a few yards of each other. Browse in a book shop before setting off up Glanville Place and further into the New Town of Edinburgh.
On reaching Howe Street turn right.
Like much of the New Town streets it is wide and handsome with the added bonus of a view northwards across a city roof- scape to a blue strip of River Forth and the coast of Fife.
Catch your breath half way up before turning left and walking along Herriot Row. Here the grey stone facades have not changed a great deal since Robert Louis Stevenson moved to No.17 as a boy in 1857.
Electric lighting has long since replaced the gas lamps Stevenson mentions in his poem The Lamplighter, yet it's easy to imagine the sickly child peering out of his window at the lamp before the door as "Leerie stops to light it as he lights so many more."
Turning right onto Queen Street Gardens East leads to Hanover Street which continues over George Street where, in the intersection, a statue of George 1V on a pedestal commemorates the King's visit in 1822 – the first by a British monarch to see his Scottish kingdom in 171 years.
The King had been sensationally dressed in flesh coloured tights and kilt and many others were impressed to follow his lead. Sir Walter Scott was the impresario behind this event and has since been celebrated and blamed for the popularity of tartan, bagpipes and clans.
From here on Hanover Street there is a splendid view of the Royal Scottish Academy of Art and Architecture and on the skyline, the towers of the New College of the Free Church of Scotland.
Before weaving through the crowds on Princes Street, grin or grimace eastwards in the direction of the monument and statue commemorating the writer Sir Walter Scott (you may like to climb to the top) then cross the bottom of The Mound with care to descend the steps down to Princes Street Gardens.
Pause at the Floral Clock then spend time enjoying the gardens and the best views of the great lump of volcanic rock topped by Edinburgh Castle.

Edinburgh historyFife Coastal Path
In Scotland's capital, the Old Town thoroughfare running from Edinburgh Castle down to Holyrood Palace is often referred to as the Royal Mile. Castlehill leads down to the Lawnmarket which continues into the High Street. A short walk past John Knox's House this becomes the Canongate leading to Horse Wynd which turns past the front of the new Scottish Parliament building. From the Royal Mile, a series of roads, narrow lanes and tight alleyways fall away to either side. These alleyways, or 'wynds' and 'closes', once had gates that could be locked at night to protect the inhabitants from thieves and vagabonds.
During much of the year the Royal Mile is busy, thronged with visitors. Some come to wave at the occasional parades of passing royalty. Others delight in spotting politicians or celebrities, busking musicians or street theatre performances. Treading in famous footsteps where dramatic events in Scottish history took place is also an attraction. Then there are those visitors who are prepared to venture below present day street level to learn about the lives of the ordinary people who once lived in the tenements.
Standing up to eight stories high, these buildings were known as the world's first skyscrapers. Densely populated, they each housed up to 600 people of all classes and trades. Society was then organised vertically. The wealthy lived at the top of a building and the poor lived amongst the filth at the bottom. As there was a general lack of sanitation throughout the town, everybody suffered.
The entrances, or closes off the main street, were often named with a simple description of the businesses or activities carried on there. In Bakehouse Close you would smell baking bread. Fleshmarket Close and Skinner's Close were less savoury. This was where the slaughtermen, butchers and tanners carried on their trades. A lawyer could be consulted in Advocate's Close or a ship's chandler in Anchor Close.
Other closes were named after prominent citizens who dwelt there. For example, Pearson's Close was named after Alexander Pearson, 17th century merchant, while Stewart's Close, was probably named after William Stewart, merchant, magistrate and resident in 1710. These names would change over time. Thus, Mary King's Close came to be named after a comparatively wealthy business lady.
Night time in the Old Town could be dark and dangerous with robbers lurking to waylay the unwary. To help lessen the dangers, the Burgh Council, in the winter of 1554, issued a regulation requiring trades people to light a lantern each evening in front of their booths. It had to be lit between the hours of 5 o'clock in the evening and 9 o'clock the next morning. Failure to comply could incur a fine. Without this early form of street lighting, a walk through these crowded warrens of interlinked passages in falling darkness must have been a frightening prospect.
An apocryphal story that has been retold many times would have us believe that Mary King's Close was sealed tight with the inhabitants trapped inside at the time of the plague in the 1600's. This drastic action was supposedly taken to stop the disease spreading further.
The sealing of the building didn't happen, but what is true is that in 1753, the Burgh Council decided to develop a new building on the site. The houses at the top of Mary King's Close were knocked down and part of the lower sections were kept and used as foundations for the Royal Exhange Building, now known as Edinburgh City Chambers, on the High Street.The remnants of the houses that remain below have been re-opened, studied in detail and it's now possible to wander through Mary King's Close (with a guide) to gain an insight into the lives and times and ghosts of some of the past residents.
From documentary evidence a fair amount is known about Mary King's life. She owned a market stall selling fine lace collars and dresses. Business was so good that she could afford to raise her four children in relative luxury. Her wood panelled home was higher than ground level and away from the waste and rubbish that would have run down the alleyways. Though her furniture was sparse, she did own a 'long wooden settle', the equivalent of a modern day couch or sofa.
Mary was also the proud owner of a 'tappit hen' and a quaich. From such fine silver drinking vessels, she enjoyed many a measure of wine or ale. This indulgence was another indication of Mary's wealth. In her testament she left a number of belongings to her children including gold rings, silver spoons, gowns, considerable quantities of fabric ruffs, tin chamber pots and a velvet doublet.
Her house was lit by lamps called 'crusies' in which fish oil or animal fat was burned. Adding to the aromas from these fuels would have been the smells emanating from the contents of a bucket which stood in a corner of a room. This was the early form of Edinburgh's sanitation system!As well as being used as a toilet, this was a sick bucket and a receptacle for food waste. It was the job of the youngest able member of the family to take this bucket and empty it out – once in the morning and once at night! The waste eventually ran down through the alleyways to the Nor' Loch – now better known as Princess Street Gardens. Death by drowning in the foetid water of the Nor' Loch was a punishment handed down to those committing serious crimes such as murder.
On a present day tour of Mary King's Close, your guide, dressed in period costume will give you more colourful details and ask you to imagine that you have stepped back in time to the year 1645 when the plague was at its worst. You are now standing in the Craig family home near the foot of Mary King's Close.
You will learn that Mr. John Craig, head of the household, has died of pneumonic plague that very morning. His body lies on the floor, bound in a sheet, awaiting collection. John had been a gravedigger at Greyfriars churchyard and unfortunately, he infected the rest of his family. His wife Janet and three children, young John, Robert and Thomas will be taken into quarantine at Sciennes, a district outside the Old Town.
Pneumonic plague was the worst of the two forms of the disease, the other being bubonic plague. Symptoms were similar to modern day influenza – feelings of lethargy and nausea went with being sick every few minutes into that small bucket now placed by the side of a sufferer's bed.
As well as internal bleeding, a victim's skin would turn black. This discolouration gave rise to the common name of the plague - the Black Death.A high percentage of those who caught the plague didn't survive. There was no cure for the worst form though there was a partial cure for the lesser bubonic plague. In many instances, the illness could be a slow death sentence.
Outbreaks of this 'contagion' were common place during the 16th and 17th centuries and over the course of many years, the Scottish authorities put great effort into attempts at protecting the country's ports against infection. But though ships required a bill of health declaring them to be plague-free, the captains of some vessels were frequently fined for trying to sidestep the regulations.
Many people, particularly the wealthy fled the town, so a careful watch was kept on the remaining inhabitants who were threatened with fines and imprisonment if caught trying to leave. Certain everyday activities were banned such as wakes, penny weddings and the wearing of a plaid. It was thought that a person wearing a plaid, a length of tartan material wrapped round the body and often over the head, might be attempting to hide their sickness.
The Craig's house, like those of other victims, would have been cleaned by specially appointed plague cleaners who wore grey tunics marked with a white saltire, the cross of St. Andrew, patron saint of Scotland. Goods, bedding and clothing were usually burned. The billowing smoke from the flowering shrub, Broom was thought to 'cleanse the air'.
Whilst in their homes during the plague, families like the Craigs received charitable donations which included ale, wine, bread and coal. These provisions were delivered on a daily basis from residents who were still healthy enough but who went in fear. This practice was considered better for all concerned and ensured that the infected people stayed in their homes. Thus, the well enough members of the community had good reason to give generously.
If a household could afford treatment, they would send for Dr. George Rae. The good doctor would lance the buboes (abscesses) then cauterize and seal the wounds with a red hot poker. This entire operation was carried out without any form of anaesthetics – that particular process had yet to be discovered. The pain inflicted during this treatment must have been awful. On the other hand, there was a half chance that a life might be saved.
At the time, it was believed that the plague was spread by miasmas – foul smelling poisons in the air. To prevent these smells affecting him while attending to his patients, Dr. Rae wore a floor length, thick, black leather coat type of garment. Over his head and face he wore an equally thick, black leather mask with a long, beak shaped protuberance. The 'beak' was filled with sweet smelling herbs and spices that acted as a crude filter.
As strange as his costume appears, it did work for Dr. Rae since he lived for another thirty years after the plague left the city. It is known that he was the second plague doctor to take up the job after John Paulitious, the first official plague doctor, who died, in June 1645.
Dr. George Rae was employed by the council on June 13th of that year and given the sizeable salary of £100 Scots a month. By November, incredibly, he had negotiated a further £10 Scots per month – he was not expected to live long!
Though it took longer elsewhere, the worst of the plague was over in Edinburgh by the autumn of 1646. By then, the Council had second thoughts regarding the Doctor's payment. George Rae was still chasing his money almost 10 years later. He won eventually and claimed an unprecedented yearly pension of £1200 Scots.
The Black Death, as we now know, was not spread by miasmas, but by fleas brought in on the backs of rats. The rats probably arrived from Europe on the ships that sailed into Leith harbour. The fleas would jump from the rats and bite into their human victims.
Some of the original passageways off the Royal Mile, as well as now having restaurants and bars, are still used as short cuts between streets. They have long been made safe with modern paving, lighting, and handrails where necessary. No longer will you hear the cry, "Gardyloo," (from the French 'regarde l'eau') as some householder pours the contents of a bucket of filthy waste water from the height of an upstairs window opening. But it's still possible to get a sense of the conditions that prevailed and the people who lived there hundreds of years ago.

A: You cant take the reference to the mainAnctivity with MainActivity.this if the activity was not created. The activity gets created after onCreate was called. That is why you get this error.
Change this line :
android.app.AlertDialog dialog=new SpotsDialog(MainActivity.this);

to:
android.app.AlertDialog dialog;

And initialise it in onCreate like this:
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(com.example.sud.todolist4.R.layout.activity_main);

    dialog=new SpotsDialog(MainActivity.this);

    //Init FireStore
    db = FirebaseFirestore.getInstance();
...

A: The error message seems pretty clear: System services not available to Activities before onCreate(). In the stack trace you can see it's invoked by the constructor of SpotsDialog.
Replace
//AlertDialog dialog;
android.app.AlertDialog dialog=new SpotsDialog(MainActivity.this);

with
//AlertDialog dialog;
android.app.AlertDialog dialog;

This initialization was useless as you  initiliaze it again in the onCreate methode.

Mold Solution Spray and Laundry Additive - 10% Off Special Offer!
EC3 Mold Solution Spray is an all-natural, botanical, ready-to-use spray that works on contact to clear away mold spores and mycotoxins that can collect on hard and soft surfaces.
EC3 Laundry Additive helps to rinse away bacteria and mold spores that get trapped in your clothing and other fabrics that just washing alone fails to eliminate.
MOLD SPRAY: Mist the entire house with EC3 Mold Solution Spray. Once an object or area is treated, allow it to air-dry. Treat as often as needed. Use the spray weekly or more often if mold counts are not decreasing. Pay special attention to carpets and rugs, as these are the largest filters that collect and retain debris in your home. You can even mist or use a cloth to treat your pet's fur to prevent them from tracking mold spores into your home. It can also be used on car interiors and in heating and air systems to prevent and treat mold formation or circulation. If an item is covered with visible mold it really is best to discard it. Caution: If applying to fine wood furniture that is susceptible to water stains, product should be misted on and then wiped off after one minute has passed. ----- LAUNDRY ADDITIVE: Add two (2) ounces of the laundry additive to the rinse cycle reservoir (where you normally add your fabric softener) of your washing machine for every regular wash cycle. This product should be used in addition to your normal detergent or bleaching agent. EC3 Laundry Additive is safe for use on all washable fabrics, and is free from all harmful chemicals, synthetic perfumes or dyes. It works with all HE appliances.
I am so impressed with the difference in the laundry with the additive that I have recommended it to everybody I know with a front loader. The spray has removed a moldy smell that developed in my antique dresser due to the front loader issue. I highly recommend the product and this package is a good balue to start off.


The effort to understand how an airplane flies is sometimes called "Theory of Flight." Under that name, it has a bad reputation with pilots. Most pilots think that theory is useless, that practice is what does it. Yet you can't help having a theory: whatever you do, from peeling potatoes to flying airplanes, you go on the basis of some mental image of what's what — and that's all "theory" amounts to. And if your ideas of what's what are correct, you will do it well.

Tithing | Wir sind bettler. Hoc est verum.
*disclaimer* this is not meant to be a legal study of how much particular we should give or not give, but an article to challenge our thinking and attitudes.
Now a quick word before I get to my main point. With out getting in a huge word/verse study in the Bible, I would argue that we Christians are first called to give both of our time and money to the Church, and second that it should come from our heart and desire not from the law.
10% tithe is a good basic guideline, however I believe that the N.T Christian is called to give what he can, out of gratitude, joy, and a vision for Christ's ministry on earth. For many of us this should be well over 10% of our money, not mentioning our time and talents.
God's Church and our family cannot grow, or fulfill its calling of God without people giving of their time and money to it.
I have to check my heart on this too. Since I too have many times withheld money and time from God. Like everyone sometimes I am not grateful nor trusting of God, so I horde and keep from God what I can and should give.
How many of us are ungrateful, and would rather spend our excess on ourselves than on God's kingdom? What will you say to God when you have made millions (because of His blessing) and yet have given none or very little to Him?
How many of us are so distrustful of God that we put away money and other investments for our well-being, security, and retirement thinking that we can secure our own future, rather than trusting in God for provision, and putting away money and other things because its the wise stewardship thing to do?
Should we not have the view of our money and future that we first trust God with it and spend or save it for His glory, our good, and while using wisdom and not greed or fear? Saving, increasing wealth, and investments are all wise things a good steward should do, however its all about the attitude while doing so.
How many of us do not think high enough of the Church's (Christ's) work that we do not give even of our time for it?
Lets be practical, the Church does need our money and time to function, its really that simple. God uses His people to grow His church and to do His work. It requires money and time, and He doesn't just create money in Heaven and rain it down on us. Most work done on Earth is done in through physical means not miracles, and through God's people.
I am not saying that God wants the rich to make themselves poor (maybe He does for some, He did tell the rich young ruler to sell everything, I think it all depends on your attitude and who you are making your god).
I am not saying that God wants the poor to make themselves poorer (perhaps there is something they can give to God besides their money).
Everyone should use wisdom when giving and not give what they don't have (using credit).
I am not saying that God doesn't want us to enjoy things that He has given us, that we cannot buy something new, or that we must give any excess to Him. Its more of an attitude thing. If you haven't given anything to God and yet feel ok buying the newest sports car…and you call yourself a Christian…well check your heart brother.
I am not saying that we should test God, by giving every thing we have away foolishly testing to see if God will bless us. If you jump out of an airplane at 10,000 ft without a parachute, trusting that God will keep you alive when you hit, well you might be disappointed to know that it was at that moment God destined you to meet Him face to face. Same if you give all your food away trusting that God will feed you, you might be surprised when you starve. We are told not to test God and not to be foolish. He might save you, but regardless you were not pleasing Him with your actions.
However, we should trust God to take care of us and to meet are needs and even our desires if He so is pleased to. The greedy don't please God, the distrustful don't please God, and the unwise don't please God. Those who are thankful, selfless, wise, and trust God with their time and money, who give out of gratitude and joy, please God.
Pleasing God requires us to think, study the Bible, practice what we learn, fight our flesh, trust God, over come sin, and sacrifice our bodies. God requires our righteousness to surpass that of the Pharisees, luckily we have Christ to be our righteousness before God and the Holy Spirit to help sanctify us, but this doesn't mean we shouldn't be growing towards holiness to the degree God is Holy.
We all remember that everything we have comes from God. Our money is His, our time is His, everything.
We all remember God's Love and Sacrifice for us.
We diligently plan out our budget and include giving to God.
We live comfortably in moderation, if possible, while checking our pride and what we are trusting in.
We care enough about God's work and kingdom as to sacrifice time and money for it, and that we do it joyfully.
We constantly thank God for everything we have and hold on to it loosely enough so as to be ok if God takes it all from us.
We trust in God and not in this life.
Lets all check our hearts and see how much we really have been changed by God's love and grace towards us, and see how much we are laying up treasures here on Earth and not in Heaven.

Kelly Ripa's Bikini Pic Draws Body-Shaming Trolls
Heather Tooley
Kelly Ripa's bikini pic posted on her husband's Instagram account has drawn scores of body-shaming trolls. On Monday, Mark Consuelos posted a photo of his wife wearing a string bikini on their vacation, calling her "the sexy one." Some didn't find the Live! co-host all that "sexy" and weren't shy about making their opinions known on Consuelos' Instagram account.
The negative reactions have caught the attention of the mainstream press. Fox News reports that the trolls came out in full force bashing for Kelly Ripa is wearing a bikini.
There were those who didn't think a woman at the age of 47 should be parading around in skimpy swimwear.
"Kelly's gorgeous, but isn't there a cutoff age where age appropriateness comes into play? Just because you can rock a bikini, doesn't mean you should," one commented.
It wasn't just Ripa's age that had the trolls spewing disapproving comments. Others felt her body type wasn't anything special. Someone wrote that Ripa's "body is nothing to be proud of."
A few compared Kelly's body to that of a young boy's.
"Cool @instasuelos didn't know you were into little boys, but not totally surprising," another user wrote.
"She has the body of a 12 year old boy. Guess 'sexy' is a matter of opinion- She is adorable- but...," someone else replied.
"Not the sweet Kelly she was when she first started with Regis," one user remarked.
Despite the rude comments, Ripa's fans came to her defense. One pushed back at the haters by stating that Kelly and Mark are "human beings" and that the image was about a husband wanting to show off his wife. As long as the image wasn't "insulting" or "humiliating," then there's "no reason to judge."
Another wrote that men who tell their wives that they're too old, need to eat, or has the body of a boy are the ones with "a million insecurities."
Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos have faced off with trolls before. Kelly said on The Wendy Williams Show that she loves to "troll a troll." If they come at her or her husband, she'll take them on. She proved that when she shot back at someone who insulted a throwback photo she posted on March 9 of her with Consuelos in 2008. A user criticized the 46-year-old's height, but People reports that the comment has since been deleted.
Both Ripa and Consuelos responded to the woman's insensitive comment.
"Too bad he's short when he tries to look taller. It looks funny. Just be who you are," the woman commented.
"Please tell me how it is I can try to look taller," Consuelos replied. "I'm dying to know."
Ripa chimed in, "He's tall where it counts, babe."
Kelly bikini pic on her husband's Instagram account has almost 73,000 likes. It was posted as a show of Mark's love for his wife of 22 years. He's clearly proud of her and wants others to know how much he loves her. The pair have three children together -- Michael, 20, Lola, 16, and Joaquin, 15.
It's easy to see how the talk show host and former soap opera star maintains such a conditioned body considering her fitness and health regime. Ripa told Bon Appetit that she mostly sticks to an alkaline diet, but has her weaknesses for pizza, french fries and Girl Scout cookies. Ripa doesn't eat breakfast until after she tapes Live! because she said she can't focus if she's digesting on the show.
Kelly Ripa stays active by doing a variety of exercises like yoga, jogging and strength training.

Haryana Governor Jagannath Pahadia today asserted that the effects of the state's economic rise were being felt across the nation.
The Haryana Budget will be presented on March 5, according to the recommendations of the Business Advisory Committee of the Vidhan Sabha. The session will be held from February 23 to March 9.
There was a "spark" to the usually mundane day one of the Budget session of the Haryana Assembly. A few crackers, some repartee and three walkouts -- it all happened in just over an hour after the House resumed following the Governor's address.
Renuka Bishnoi going to attend the first day of the Budget Session.
Bringing the functioning of the Bhupinder Singh Hooda government under a scanner, the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) has pegged the losses of Haryana's public sector undertakings (PSUs) at a whopping Rs 1,239 crore in the last financial year. The overall accumulated losses of the PSUs for 2,010-2,011 stood at Rs 5,676 crore.
The five MLAs of the Haryana Janhit Congress (HJC), whose merger with the Congress had been suspended by the Punjab and Haryana High Court, today pleaded in the Supreme Court that it was HJC chief Kuldeep Singh Bishnoi who had attracted action and not them.
The committee spearheading the pro-reservation stir by the Jats today agreed to resume talks with government representatives on Saturday.
Residents of 1,200-odd illegal colonies of Haryana may get some relief soon, as the government has stepped up the process for their regularisation.
In protest against non-fulfilment of their demands by the district authorities, hundreds of irate residents of Bahujhholari village blocked the Bahujhholari-Kosli-Jhajjar road near the Khorda turn for over 30 hours.
A man was set on fire after sprinkling petrol on him, allegedly by his wife, mother-in-law and two brothers-in-law, at Jodhkan village in Sirsa last night. He was rushed to Hisar for treatment, where he died this morning.
Activists of the CPM organised demonstrations in various parts of the state in protest against the alleged murder of two CPM workers in West Bengal yesterday. While a protest was held in Rohtak, a memorandum to President Pratibha Patil through the DC was submitted.
As many as 170 fresh cases of hepatitis C have come to the fore during the eighth day of the ongoing survey in Ratia today.
The police today arrested a man, his wife and his mother, on the charges of murdering a businessman in the Krishna Colony last evening.
Addressing the Budget session of the Haryana Assembly on its opening day, Pahadia said according to quick estimates, the state's economy had achieved a growth rate of 9.6 per cent during 2010-11. Also, according to the advance estimates for 2011-12, the per capita income of Haryana was expected to be Rs 1,09,227 at current prices and the state ranked second, after Goa, among all the states.
The average growth rate of industrial production was 7.9 per cent during 2010-11 according to the index of industrial production. The state continued to retain its position as a preferred investment destination. He claimed that the rate of implementation of the pledged investment in the state was the highest in the country. Notwithstanding the market uncertainties and volatility at the international and national levels, an investment of Rs 59,000 crore had been catalysed in the state since 2005, when the present government took over. An investment of about Rs 96,000 crore was in the pipeline.
The state had so far received foreign direct investment of Rs 13,128 crore, of which, investment of Rs 9,629 crore had come up after the implementation of the Industrial Policy, 2005. The total exports from the state increased from Rs 43,679 crore during 2009-10 to Rs 48,530 crore during 2010-11.
The Governor said seven years ago, the government had outlined the broad framework of its plans and programmes. It had since been marching steadily but surely towards achieving the goals of transforming Haryana into a modern, viable and vibrant state.
The power sector has experienced an impressive growth during the past seven years, with power generation capacity reaching more than three times that of the year 2004-05. The state is steadily moving towards its objective of becoming self reliant in power by 2012-13.
To ensure transparency, accountability and efficiency in the public distribution system (PDS), the government was implementing end-to-end computerisation of the system.
He said his government was committed to providing a safe and secure environment to all the citizens.
While the session opened with the Governor's address, a discussion on the address will be held on February 24 followed by a five-day break. The discussion on the address will resume on March 1 and carry on to March 2 when the vote of thanks will be presented. While March 3 and 4 will be holidays, the Budget will be presented on March 5 and discussion on the budget estimates will be held on March 6 and continue on March 7 when the Finance Minister will give his reply.
The House will meet on March 9 after a holiday on March 8 before the session concludes.
On the first day of the ongoing Budget Session of Haryana Vidhan Sabha, obituary resolutions were passed after the Governor address.
There was a "spark" to the usually mundane day one of the Budget session of the Haryana Assembly.
A few crackers, some repartee and three walkouts -- it all happened in just over an hour after the House resumed following the Governor's address.
The "big trouble" happened when the issue of extension of a House committee on irregularities committed by Trusts/Societies of family members of Leader of Opposition Om Prakash Chautala came up.
No sooner did the chairperson of the committee, Congress MLA BB Batra, present the customary preliminary report before seeking an extension, INLD MLA Sher Singh Badshami, quoting rules and the Constitution, challenged the very constitution of the committee.
His main contention was that the committee was "illegal" because a person could not be tried for the same charges twice. Haryana's Parliamentary Affairs Minister, Randeep Singh Surjewala, reasoned that while the constitution of the committee was not under consideration, the House was only deciding on an extension.
At this, the INLD benches erupted, stating that if the very committee is "illegal", the issue of an extension did not arise. While Surjewala was still reading out the terms of reference of the committee, the Speaker, Kuldeep Sharma, offered a discussion on the legality of the committee as also the "whole issue" in question.
While Surjewala agreed to this readily, the INLD demanded the Speaker's verdict on the committee's legality while Sharma offered to fix a time for discussion. Chautala alleged that the issue was unnecessarily being twisted while the INLD wanted to know was whether or not the committee was legal. "Please give your verdict," he urged the Speaker.
As the pitch of protests from the Opposition grew, a number of Congress MLAs intervened. However, the INLD stuck to its guns, seeking an instant verdict on the "legality" even as Surjewala offered that they were ready to examine the legality issue. "If it turns out that the committee is indeed illegal, we will disband it," he said. In the midst of all this, as soon as Batra sought extension of time for the committee, peeved INLD MLAs staged a walkout.
Earlier, after Adampur MLA Renuka Bishnoi of the Haryana Janhit Congress (HJC) was sworn in as MLA and the report of the Business Advisory Committee (BAC) was presented.
INLD MLA and state unit president Ashok Arora contested the recommendations, stating that the MLAs would not get enough time to list out their grievances.
BJP's Anil Vij, seeking a month-long session, said that the government would hold only one session if meeting every six months was not laid down in the Constitution.
To this, Surjewala retorted that this was a "unanimous decision" as leaders from the opposition were present at the meeting. At this, the Opposition, the INLD and the BJP, separately, staged a walkout.
n Extension of time for a House committee on irregularities committed by Trusts/Societies of family members of Leader of Opposition Om Prakash Chautala. Peeved INLD MLAs staged a walkout.
n The Opposition protested that though the session was 14-day long on the face of it, the House would only have eight sittings and sought an extension. The Opposition, the INLD and the BJP, separately staged a walkout on the issue.
In its latest report, which was presented in the Haryana Vidhan Sabha here today, CAG said the lion's share of the loss was accounted for by the Uttar Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam Limited (UHBVN), which reported losses worth Rs 884.22 crore followed by the Rs 779-crore losses of the Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (DHBVN).
Attributing losses to various deficiencies in the functioning of the PSUs, the report said the loss-making power corporations accounted for about 95 per cent of the total investment in 2010-11. The government contributed Rs 6,847 crore towards equity, loans, grants and subsidies to the PSUs in the last financial year.
Besides the discoms, the audit report pointed out serious "deficiencies" in the functioning of several departments, including Haryana State Roads and Bridges Development Corporation Limited, Haryana Power Generation Corporation Limited, Haryana Land Reclamation and Development Corporation Limited, Haryana State Industrial and Infrastructure Development Corporation Limited, Haryana Tourism Development Corporation, Haryana Seeds Development Corporation Limited, Haryana Roadways Engineering Corporation Limited and Haryana Forest Development Corporation Limited.
Arguing before a Bench comprising Justices Altamas Kabir and J Chelameswar, their counsel Mukul Rohatgi contended that under the provisions of the anti-defection law in the 10th Schedule of the Constitution, three-fourth members of the legislature party of any political party could decide to merge their party with another.
In this case, five of the six MLAs of the HJC had merged their party with the Congress. It was Bishnoi who had refused to go with the majority view. The HJC had ceased to exist the moment the merger took place and it was Bishnoi whose status in the Assembly had become uncertain, Rohatgi argued.
While the merger had been approved by Speaker Kuldeep Sharma and a single Judge Bench of the HC, a Division Bench declared the five MLAs, including two Cabinet Ministers Rao Narendra Singh and Satpal Sangwan, as unattached members. The other three MLAs are Vinod Bhayana, Zile Ram Sharma and Dharam Singh.
It was unfortunate that the HC had rendered the status of the five MLAs uncertain like that of "Trishanku" despite the fact that the power to declare any member as unattached vested exclusively with the Speaker, their counsel argued. "What will my clients tell their voters on their status in the House? The common man does not understand what is meant by unattached. Further, the word "unattached" does not figure anywhere in the Constitution," Rohatgi said.
It was Bishnoi who should have been disqualified or reduced to the status of being an unattached member, he averred.
Rohatgi contended that Parliament, in its wisdom, had inserted the provision for allowing two-third members of the legislature party to decide on the merger issue as it was not possible to assess the views of all the primary members of a party which might run into millions.
Any party that was merged with another party could continue to exist in the same name, it was contended. In its verdict, the HC had failed to examine the law of merger, he pointed out.
With today's day-long hearing in the case, the arguments on behalf of the Speaker and the five MLAs have concluded. The Bench will hear the arguments of Bishnoi on February 28.
The merger of the five MLAs had lent stability to the Bhupinder Singh Hooda government which had only 40 MLAs then in the 90-member House.
This decision was taken at a marathon meeting of the committee at the venue of the dharna in Ramayan village of this district late this evening.
Suresh Koth, a senior khap leader and key member of the committee, said the government team would include, among others, former Speaker of the Haryana Vidhan Sabha Raghbir Kadian, Chief Parliamentary Secretary Dharamveer Singh and Meham MLA Anand Singh Dangi among others. The talks would be held in the office of the PowerGrid Corporation of India in the village.
Meanwhile, four members of the community today went on an indefinite hunger strike today. The six persons, who had gone on a 24-hour fast yesterday, ended their hunger strike this morning paving the way for the four-member team to undertake an indefinite fast.
Rail traffic remained suspended for the fifth day today. Keeping their promise of not blocking the railway track, the protesters, including women, squatted on both sides of the track today also. No roads were blocked and vehicular traffic on the national highway plied as usual.
Leaders of the Jats again appealed to the railways authorities to resume traffic on the track and assured them that they would ensure the safe passage of trains. They said the protesters were not in favour of causing any inconvenience to the public. They reiterated that the protest would remain peaceful.
It is learnt that Kadian, Dharamveer Singh and Dangi held several rounds of talks today with the Jat leaders and ultimately succeeded in bringing them to the negotiating table. The Jat leaders had left the meeting with senior minister Randeep Singh Surjewala on Tuesday in a huff at the Hisar airport.
The Jat leaders had yesterday set up an 11-member panel for talks with the government making it clear that they would not approach the government but would respond positively to any move from the government side.
The government has directed the Deputy Commissioners of all the districts in the state to send lists of unauthorised colonies to be regularised to the state headquarters within 10 days.
In a video-conferencing with all the Deputy Commissioners today, DPS Nagal, Director-General, Urban Local Bodies, Haryana, directed them to visit the sites themselves and send the lists of colonies complying with the government's guidelines on this subject.
Sirsa Deputy Commissioner J Ganeshan said the authorities had identified 51 colonies in the five urban towns of Sirsa - Ellenabad, Dabwali, Rania, Kalanwali and Sirsa - for this purpose.
The Haryana Government had recently announced that it would soon regularise nearly 1,200 illegal colonies of the state.
While announcing this, Haryana Urban Local Bodies Minister Gopal Kanda had said colonies with 50 per cent of constructed houses would be considered for this purpose.
The government, according to the minister's announcement, was to complete the process by February 15, but it got delayed, as the DCs were yet to submit their lists.
Nagal asked the Deputy Commissioners to keep in mind that no colony, where the government has acquired land for some project, was recommended for regularisation.
Ganeshan said Haryana Space Application Centre (HARSAC), which was assigned the job of preparing site plan, had already completed the work for 24 colonies of Sirsa, Dabwali and Kalanwali, while the site plan of 27 colonies of Rania and Ellenabad would be completed soon.
The protesters were demanding Rs 10 lakh and a government job as compensation to the next of kin of those three residents of Bahujhholari village, who were killed in a road accident at Charkhi Dadri town in Bhiwani district yesterday.
They were persuaded to lift the blockade following an assurance made by Jhajjar SP Patram Singh and SDM Chander Shekhar that Rs 4 lakh besides a temporary government service at DC rates would be given by the authorities to each of the next of kin of the deceased.
Notably, three youths, identified as Suresh, Surender and Vinod, were reportedly crushed to death by a Haryana Roadway bus near Ramnagar in Charkhi Dadri when they were coming back to Bahujhholari village yesterday. They used to go to Charkhi Dadri daily to buy vegetables from the vegetable market.
As the news of their death spread in Bahujhholari village, a large number of villagers came out from their houses and blocked all roads leading to the village by sitting and parking their vehicles over there.
Commuters had to face a tough time as their vehicles got stuck in serpentine queues. The long queues could be seen on both sides of the road due to the blockade. Many of the commuters had to choose various approach roads to reach their destination.
The victim, Rakesh Kumar, a resident of Bighar in Fatehabad, was married to Asha Rani of Jodhkan village in 2009 and had a daughter from her.
In his statement to the police before his death, Rakesh said Asha left for her parents' home after an altercation with him yesterday.
Later, he received a call from his brother-in-law, who asked him to come to Jodhkan.
He said during the night, he had an argument with his wife and mother-in-law Bimla Devi, after which his brothers-in-law Manoj and Kalu joined them and set him on fire after sprinkling petrol on him.
The badly burnt Rakesh called on his brother Karnail's mobile and informed him about the incident.
Karnail rushed to Jodhkan and brought his brother to the General Hospital, Fatehabad, where the doctors referred him to Hisar in view of his serious condition.
The police said a case of attempt to murder was registered on the victim's statement, which was later converted into case of murder after his death. No arrest has been made so far.
Stating this a spokesperson of the party claimed that this was done to express anguish against the gruesome murders of two of the party leaders, including a former legislator, allegedly by some goons of the Trinamool Congress in Bardhman district of West Bengal yesterday.
He said effigies of politics of violence were burnt in Fatehabad, Hisar, Bhiwani, Jind, Gurgaon and Faridabad. Party members submitted a memorandum to President Pratibha Patil seeking her intervention on the issue and restoration of constitutional guarantee for the right to life in West Bengal.
State secretary Inderjit Singh and CITU secretary Surender Singh condemned the "dastardly" violent attack killing the party leaders in cold blood and described the heinous crime an attack on the foundations of democracy itself.
Bharti Sharma, epidemiologist, Fatehabad, said the survey teams of the Health Department took blood samples of 861 persons today. Out of these, 301 samples were taken from the urban areas in a camp set up in the community health centre, 73 of these tested positive for the virus.
With today's figures, the number of persons detected with virus has reached 1,435, Bharti said.


Interpersonal architectural is actually absolutely nothing brand new, and also the buy-ins tend to be higher for individuals who desire to alter the guidelines from the online game as well as rebuilding culture within their eye's personal picture. Tend to be these people to become regarded as the actual "Unreasonable Man" or even uncommon males in this instance, you realize the actual forces which end up being. These people, the actual "great they" nicely, these people appear to have plan. Anyhow, prior to We begin this particular good small post recognize I'm talking in the viewpoint of the onlooker, somebody who has viewed 10 years following 10 years since the ebb as well as circulation repeats. Alright therefore, let us speak will all of us?
These days we now have interpersonal social networking, they've a lot energy, also it might naïve to consider these internet sites and people that manage all of them wouldn't wield which energy with regard to some thing besides simply earnings. The thing is, this kind of threatening energy is really a corrupter associated with humanity, as well as unless of course their own eyesight for the future associated with human being communities fits your own, you may be set for a genuine online game changer, the one that might have a person thinking it had been your own concept for your really arriving alter.
All of us can't merely believe in individuals in charge of the info to stay honest, certainly all of us in no way might, however in some way a lot of Online users possess used the fake feeling associated with rely upon this particular brand new location, which is as much as every single person a person to comprehend there's a minimum of a few natural brainwashing happening, together with a few efforts from bulk interpersonal architectural. Possibly it may actually become more difficult in the event that presently there were not. A few manage is required just like culture must be structured and also the guidelines standardised to keep the actual serenity.
Even so the border associated with walking on to person independence from the thoughts via bulk adjustment associated with culture is really a frightening believed. In the event that all of us allow blob associated with internet sites ebb as well as circulation it'll just coalesce right into a replicate associated with previous intervals associated with background. That won't end up being great for anybody, particularly when the real background may be concealed through look at because of the really regulates associated with info which I have talked about thus. I really hope it will cost a while these days as well as think about this in a further degree.

Where to buy Cristiano Ronaldo Manchester United No. 7 jersey before anyone else (UPDATE)
Updated: Sep. 02, 2021, 3:32 p.m. | Published: Aug. 31, 2021, 10:31 a.m.
Fanatics Manchester United jersey.
By MassLive.com Staff and The Associated Press | MassLive
Updated, Sept. 2, 3:30 p.m.: Fans can now buy official Ronaldo No. 7 uniforms on Fanatics by clicking here
Cristiano Ronaldo is looking to the future at Manchester United after a nod to the most influential figure of his soccer past.
The five-time world player of the year completed his return to United on Tuesday after 12 years away, saying "I'm back where I belong.
"History has been written in the past and history will be written once again!" the 36-year-old Ronaldo wrote on Instagram. "You have my word!"
Related: Custom order a No. 7 Ronaldo jersey here
Ronaldo signed off his post by dedicating his return to Old Trafford to the man who first brought him to United in 2003 — when he was a skinny, supremely gifted 18-year-old winger — and turned him into a superstar.
"Sir Alex," he wrote, "this one is for you…"
Alex Ferguson, the most successful manager in United's history, is thought to be among the club greats who helped to persuade Ronaldo to move back to United amid interest from crosstown rival Manchester City, which had been offered the Portugal forward by his agent. Ronaldo has previously called Ferguson "my father in sport."
An agreement was reached with Juventus over Ronaldo's transfer on Friday, and one of soccer's most stunning deals in years was completed on Tuesday -- the final day of European soccer's summer transfer window -- after a medical examination.
So now the big question is, what jersey will the star wear? Reports indicate he will, in fact, get his No. 7 back. Edinson Cavani, who currently wears No. 7, could be taking No. 21, which Dan James wore before heading to Leeds, freeing the number up for the team's in-coming superstar. Manchester Evening News reports that the team is seeking workaround to give Ronaldo No. 7 while Cavani is still contracted to the club.
To get your hands on a No. 7 Manchester United Ronaldo jersey, you'll have to get creative. Luckily, Fanatics has Man U's third alternate 2021-22 jersey that can be a custom order, so fans can create their own Ronaldo jersey immediately once the announcement is made that he will take No. 7. You can, of course, roll the dice now and be the first person in town with a No. 7 Man U jersey if you choose to order one before any announcement is made. Fanatics, which had Lionel Messi jerseys almost immediately available after the announcement of his signing with PSG, will likely have non-custom jerseys in stock once Ronaldo's number announcement is made.

Q: How can I correct an incorrect Change-Id when pushing to Gerrit? I push to Gerrit, and my code is reviewed such that valid comments are made. I make the changes, and do a fresh commit and push, assuming that I've created a new patch set.
However, I forget to tick the 'Amend commit' box in IntelliJ:

This means that the new commit gets pushed to Gerrit with a new Change-Id, and so the change does not become associated with the previous push. Now my reviewers can't (easily) make the connection between the 2 changes, nor can anyone who looks at this in the future.
My commit messages are multi-line, and so cannot easily be altered on the command line if I wanted to do a git amend.
My approach has been to try and undo the 'bad' commit --- but I end up getting confused in Git Hell.
I end up:

*

*checking out origin/master into a new repo on my laptop and
manually making  my changes again (yes, really), then

*deactivating the commit-msg hook in my .git/hooks directory, then

*making a commit with the desired Change-Id manually added to the message, then

*pushing to Gerrit.

*Finally I re-activate the commit-msg hook

This can't be the best way to do it. It works, but it can't be the best way to do it.
What do?

A: You should squash the two last commit into one, keeping in the message the initial Change-ID. The squash allow you to combine different commits into one. It takes place into interactive rebase process. The explanation to do it using command line.
You could use this example to do using interface.


Just back from two sundrenched weeks in Beautiful Kassiopi. The village was very busy with holiday makers as were the beaches and their tavernas...we found we had to book table for a couple of our fav restaurants in advance. The locals were saying the relentless good weather throughout most of the summer and especially this time of year has given their economy a boost which is well deserved. We will be back next June to enjoy another lovely visit to beautiful Corfu.
Welcome home. Glad you had another great time in Kassiopi and the sun continued to shine. It's good to hear the village is still as busy as ever.
It appears the temperatures are dropping slightly but we are hoping it will still be warm enough for some swimming when we are there.
We saw Bacchus fully occupied whilst we were there from the distance. Do you prefer the sea or pool? As weather was so hot we didn't do the long walks this year but went on the yellow submarine trip which was great. The guys certainly know where to find the fish to photograph under the sea ... worth doing as only ten euros for 50 minutes. It's parked at the harbour. Prices at restaurants about the same as last year and a such a wide selection of fish meat and Corfiot dishes which we love. Have a great time.
Looking forward to staying in villa Bacchus. A new villa for us. The pool there looks lovely but we really love swimming in the sea, which should still be warm after the hot summer.
We did the submarine trip from the harbour in August and the grandkids enjoyed it, something a bit different.
Looking forward to doing some walking this October, agree it is much too hot during the summer months, for us pensioners anyhow!


Social perceptions of madness continually inform interpersonal and policy decisions in the US, notable of late in the shooting of unarmed, non-violent mad people of color; the use of mental "unfitness" to disparage Donald Trump; and the equation of madness with violence after school shootings. Contemporary discussions of how to surveil, restrict, and value those identified as "mad," mentally and emotionally disabled, or distressed demonstrate the significance of Mad Studies work in the humanities.
As threat, as abject, as subject, and as a combination of all three, the figure of the migrant and the figure of the refugee loom large in the ethical imagination. The recent surge in desperate efforts of people to leave their homelands for other places, the Syrian refugee crisis, the mass displacement of the Rohingya, the "caravan" of Central American migrants seeking to cross the US-Mexico border, and of course the surge in anti-immigrant, and anti-migrant discourses all speak to the moral urgency of collective responses to these figures. It is one of the most pressing concerns of our current moment.
This year's NEMLA conference includes focus on transnational spaces and "the complex processes of transculturation." Since waterways such as oceans and rivers have historically been both media for and a contested sites of such processes, we invite panelists for a proposed session that will explore water and/as transcultural and transnational space. While we are particularly interested in exploring the cultural, political, and imaginative impulses that can work to turn waterways into transcultural spaces, we are equally interested in explorations of the forces that resist processes of transculturation.
Media Literacy and Academic Research is a high-quality open accesss peer-reviewed journal focused on the academic reflection of media and information literacy issues, media education, critical thinking, digital media and new trends in related areas of media and communication studies. The journal is devoted to addressing contemporary issues and future developments related to the interdisciplinary academic discussion, the results of empirical research and the mutual interaction of expertise in media and information studies, education studies as well as their sociological, psychological, political, linguistic and technological aspects.
Papers are invited on any theme arising from the novel. We especially welcome papers investigating the novel and its adaptations in any medium that focus on contrasting perspectives and discourses of the quest for the origin, meaning and purpose of life. This is an invitation for posters, 20-minute papers or alternative/experimental presentations. Place and dates of symposium: University of Cyprus, Nicosia, Cyprus, 30 November-1 December 2018. Deadline for proposals 01 October 2018. Please send 200 word proposals to: cyprusfrankenreads@gmail.com.
This panel proposes a historical approach to the study of women's participation in the press industry as editors of magazines, newspapers, and periodicals. We invite scholars to work from a transnational perspective in order to compare editorial strategies and trace different journalistic traditions in Europe and the US. In addressing these issues, this panel seeks to explain how women shaped the periodical field throughout the long nineteenth century while navigating the challenges of the industry and advocating for gender equality.
The interdisciplinary turn in the field of Translation Studies has raised a number of questions regarding the interweaving of theory and practice, the development of hybrid approaches to the target text, the power of translation to shape cultural relations, and the growing expectations of the reader for truth and clarity. In this context, the role of the literary translator becomes ever-more pertinent. His/her verbal dexterity as well as the ability to capture the narratological complexity of the source text define the subtle border between content and form and shape the identity of the translated work of art.

The MomArt's fire, 2004
31 March, 20180
Actualizado a fecha: 2 December, 2018
Momart is a British company specialising in the storage, transportation, and installation of works of art.
A major proportion of their business is maintaining (often delicate) artworks in a secure, climate-controlled environment. The company maintains two warehouse facilities adapted for this task. Momart's clients include the Royal Academy of Arts, Victoria & Albert Museum, National Gallery, Tate Modern, Tate Britain and Buckingham Palace.
The 2004 warehouse fire
In the evening of 24 May 2004 a fire broke out in a Momart storage warehouse in Leyton, east London. The warehouse was in the centre of a large industrial building that also housed other businesses around the periphery. The central warehouse was sublet from a household moving company.
The blaze, which continued to smoulder for nearly a day, destroyed almost all of the artworks stored within. Many of these pieces are great personal favourites and irreplaceable in British Art.
Art industry insiders noted that the insurance value of the works lost in the fire, particularly the "Britart" works in Saatchi's collection, would be many times their initial purchase price. The artworks lost were valued at between £30 and £50 million.
Christopher Redgrave, son of William Redgrave, whose major sculpture The Event was in the fire, visited twice and described the scene:
"There was a smell of rotting food, rotting chips, rotting meat from one of the units Momart shared the building with … There were bits of glass hanging from the roof. I had to climb over steel girders. It looked like a twisted rollercoaster that had crashed. This building was inappropriate for what they are doing. There's no way around that."
Our technical evaluation
As we see, not only human lives are lost in fires. Fire can ruin lives, leave people with no job and as is the case, destroy art heritage and ruining a part of our culture. The compartmentalization by firebreak sections, firebreak doors and sealed firebreaks in the electrical system are essential to avoid the spread of the flames or the smoke in case of fire.

In 1999, following many runway overruns in the United States, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) issued an order to create a Runway Safety Area Program to determine how to prevent such incidents in the future. This has led to a global standard for Runway End Safety Areas (RESA) – a paved extension on the end of a runway surface that offers vital protection to planes and passengers in the event of an overrun or underrun.
The United Nations' International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) recommended 300 metres RESA, and the FAA in the US has focused investment to ensure that their runways meet the same standard.
The Transportation Safety Board (TSB) -- responsible for investigating transportation-related accidents and incidents in Canada -- has identified the lack of adequate safety areas at the end of airport runways as a particularly urgent issue. Yet today, only a small percentage of Canadian airports meet global runway standards for end-of-runway safety areas.
In 2005, for instance, an overrun at Pearson International Airport in Toronto destroyed an Air France jet and injured many passengers. The TSB recommended that all runways longer than 1,800 metres be equipped with a 300 metres RESA or alternative safety measure.
Since the August 2, 2005 TSB report was issued, not a single RESA (or alternative) safety recommendation from that report has been implemented at Pearson, which is Canada's largest airport and a major North American hub. TSB has recommended longer runways be mandatory. Airports should not be allowed to ignore it.
More recently, the TSB has investigated 16 runway overruns since 2010 and this issue continues to be on the TSB safety watchlist.
Some of Canada's airports are safer than others. Only three major airports in Canada – Montreal, Vancouver and Ottawa -- currently provide RESA to ICAO recommended practice. Every Canadian deserves to have the same level of safety when flying in and out of our major airports.
TSB has reported 135 runway overrun accidents and incidents in Canada up until the beginning of October 2018. On average, 9 overrun accidents and incidents occur annually – a rate 3-4 times the global average for runway overruns.
On runway safety, Canada compares unfavorably to the United States, where the FAA has ensured that 97% of American runways now meet ICAO recommended practices for overruns.
Where topography or other factors make RESAs unfeasible, many airports around the world offer an Engineered Material Arresting System – an "arrester bed" at the end of a runway that can halt an aircraft with minimal damage and injuries. Not a single runway at a major airport in Canada offers the industry-standard alternative to RESA.
Thanks to strong guidelines from the FAA, these arrester systems have been rolled out extensively at US airports, where they have repeatedly proven their value. To date, these systems have safely stopped 14 overrunning aircraft carrying a total of 405 passengers and crew. In October 2016, the EMAS at New York's La Guardia airport helped to prevent the then Vice-Presidential candidate Mike Pence's airplane from a serious incident when it overran the runway in poor weather. According to the US National Safety Board, the 37 passengers and crew of 11 were not injured.
Transport Canada's current standard of 150 metres for RESA is inadequate and places pilots, crews, passengers and the general public at an unacceptable level of risk, especially considering that Canada has had 3-4 times the global average for runway overruns.
As pilots, we believe that our largest airports (more than 325,000 passengers per year) should meet international practice (300 metres) for runway overruns, in line with the ICAO Standard and Recommended Practice (SARP), and as implemented by the vast majority of ICAO member states around the world.
Canada should proceed with rolling out RESA of 300 metres on a priority basis to ensure that all airports with over 325,000 passengers annually are provided with the increased level of safety provided by implementing adequate RESA.

Q: Angular 4 i18n for custom attributes Is there a way to translate custom attributes values in child-components using Angular i18n AOT?
I know we can translate HTML element attributes as below.
 <input i18n-placeholder="search criteria date @@criteriaDate"
        placeholder="Date"
        formControlName="date" required>

But I want to do the same thing for my component attributes. In this example I want to pass title attribute translated value.
 <custom-spinner
        formControlName="nights"
        [title]="'Nights'"
        i18n-title="search criteria nights@@criteriaNights">
      </custom-spinner>

When I try this, it doesn't generate an entry on messages.xlf file.
I couldn't find any examples on this.

A: Tested in Angular 7. It works by default. You can't use [title] notation for i18n texts. It should be plain text.
      <custom-spinner
        formControlName="nights"
        title="Nights"
        i18n-title="search criteria nights@@criteriaNights">
      </custom-spinner>

Note it will also work for any attributes. For example, my-attr and i18n-my-attr will translate the text inside my-attr.

A: Try this syntax.
i18n-xxx is basically for compiler to recognize, therefore it doesn't follow Angular template binding syntax
<custom-spinner
 formControlName="nights"
 [title]="'Nights'"
 i18n-[title]="search criteria nights@@criteriaNights">
</custom-spinner>

A: You can try the canonical form of angular attribtute binding - it should work with angular 4.4.6 and typescript 2.3.4 too. I have proofed it with this environment:
Angular CLI: 1.6.8
Node: 6.10.0
OS: win32 x64
Angular: 5.2.5
... animations, common, compiler, compiler-cli, core, forms
... http, language-service, platform-browser
... platform-browser-dynamic, router

@angular/cli: 1.6.8
@angular-devkit/build-optimizer: 0.0.42
@angular-devkit/core: 0.0.29
@angular-devkit/schematics: 0.0.52
@ngtools/json-schema: 1.1.0
@ngtools/webpack: 1.9.8
@schematics/angular: 0.1.17
typescript: 2.6.2
webpack: 3.10.0

try this solution please - i hope it is helpfull:
<custom-spinner
 formControlName="nights"
 bind-title="'Nights'"
 i18n-bind-title="search criteria nights@@criteriaNights">
</custom-spinner>


More Abbey style and Trappist beers can be found on the Dubbel, Tripel and Quadrupel pages. Closely associated with Belgium, where the majority of beer producing Trappist monasteries are to be found, the Trappist order of monks and nuns can trace its history back to La Trappe monastery in Normandy where it was founded in 1664. As of December 2013, the beers from eleven monasteries were recognised by the International Trappist Association. Abbey beer in general, however, can simply refer to a 'monastic-style' ale, which may be named after fictitious or long since closed abbeys by secular brewers. Some are also produced under license and make contributions to the religious institution whose name they carry.
In terms of style, Trappist and Abbey beer is a broad church indeed, from spicy blondes through rich dark ales including Dubbels, Tripels and even Quadruples.
The International Trappist Association was founded in 1997 by eight Trappist monasteries: Orval, Chimay, Westvleteren, Rochefort, Westmalle and Achel from Belgium; Koningshoeven (La Trappe) from the Netherlands; and Mariawald from Germany. Since then Maria Toevlucht (Zundert), also in the Netherlands, Engelszell (Gregorius) in Austria, Tre Fontane in Italy and St. Joseph's (Spencer) in the US have also been recognised. To qualify for consideration, the beer must be brewed within the walls of the abbey by the monks themselves (or under their supervision). The brewing operation must also take secondary importance to the abbey's monastic work and way of life and should not make profits (any surplus should go to charitable causes).
The best known example of an abbey beer is Leffe, brewed by drinks giant AB InBev, with money still going to the abbey of Leffe in Wallonia. Grimbergen, brewed by Heineken is another well known example.

Right off the bat–If he isn't ready to simply pay attention to your interests, he might not be for you.
It's really not that hard to quickly take interest in something you're not interested in, just to make your partner happy. We all have to do it; you even do it with the sports, and that's honestly a telltale sign about how you approach this relationship, versus how he views it. I cannot stress enough how important it is to compromise in relationships, it keeps things fluid and makes you grow as a person. If he can't step up to the plate, then you might have to walk away and find someone who truly values you.
