What elements should a SRIA contain?
The transition of European society and economy towards the SDGs, requires enhanced policy orchestration, novel forms of R&I governance and R&I instruments. In this context, partnerships should contribute to the wider societal transformation and, more specifically, the overall objectives of Horizon Europe. In order to do so, the SRIA of a partnership should take a systemic approach in achieving its objectives.
The expectation that partnerships take a systemic approach implies that they should not be considered as stand-alone initiatives, but should drive changes through:
Large-scale directionality and impact orientation
A SRIA should be developed with a main pathway to impact in mind and should allow to develop more practical action plans, in the form of a roadmap or an annual work plan, which are then set out accordingly.
The SRIA should define priorities that need to be addressed in order to achieve the general and specific objectives, and that can be transformed into concrete actions. A well-developed logic framework with concrete and measurable objectives and targets reflected in a set of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and resources that match these objectives. The definition of a logic framework while ensuring measurability of targets is key to providing clear impact orientation of the partnership from the beginning. It helps to prioritize choices that have to be made and allows for better monitoring of progress. It may also help to identify opportunities for collaboration with other partnerships and EU initiatives, and synergies with other regional, national or European Programmes.
Flexibility in implementation and activities beyond joint calls
A SRIA should foresee some flexibility in its modes of implementation, i.e. the SRIA is not an action plan. The SRIA should serve to give guidance without pre-determining specific actions in order to be able to take into account changing environments and to adjust to changing policy, societal and/or market needs, or scientific advances. Flexibility in the SRIA allows the partnership to adjust and/or specify actions along the way, while being precise enough to detail annual or bi-annual work plans. Therefore, a partnership should also agree upon an appropriate timing to review and renew the SRIA at the start of the partnership, as this helps to improve agility and flexibility.
Beyond the scope of funding trans-national calls for R&I a SRIA could also outline additional joint actions that facilitate the realization of these objectives, supports capacity building, up-take of results, and thus achieve a close nexus to social and economic impact.
Synergies and complementarities between related activities at EU, national and regional level
A key element of a partnership's systemic approach is its contextualization and consideration of synergies and complementarities between related activities at EU, national, and regional levels. The SRIA should identify and elaborate on such synergies and potential opportunities for collaboration with other initiatives. The definition of key strategic and operational objectives in the SRIA, along with a well-developed logic framework and KPIs, may facilitate the identification and elaboration.
Better demand articulation
A SRIA should delineate key stakeholders relevant for pursuing its objectives and lay out means by which these stakeholders are being addressed and engaged in the development process of the SRIA and throughout the operation of the partnership.
A SRIA should consider and be guided by high-level policy priorities and the respective research and innovation needs of the key stakeholders and end-users. Developing a SRIA does not mean to develop an agenda "for" certain groups, but rather "with" them through a process of Co-Creation. Extensive stakeholder consultation processes or co-design activities as part of the SRIA development process can help to ensure that the SRIA has a wider perspective than those of Members only and that more attention is being paid to the provision of solutions and uptake of results.
Anticipating changing needs and enhanced capacity to adapt/steer R&I strategies to those
In order to be able to anticipate changing needs and steer accordingly, a SRIA should include appropriate approaches for monitoring and assessing progress its towards strategic objectives. Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) should allow to understand the partnerships strategic challenges from the perspective of the management, decision makers and societal stakeholders and to justify support for the partnership (see also the section on large-scale directionality and impact orientation). It is also important to link KPIs closely to EU policy objectives and enable international benchmarking.
All these aspects are fundamental for a strategic approach to research and innovation highlighting the pathway to impact of the partnership.
There is no 'one size fits all' SRIA or a template to follow, as the strategic approach to research and innovation of a partnership needs to reflect its mission and vision and its approach to define and pursue its pathway to impact. Different partnerships may adopt different approaches to set out their SRIAs, depending on the specific needs in the field and the stakeholders concerned. In some cases, a SRIA may need to refer to a set of technological challenges or regulatory issues that need to be resolved by a partnership and its industrial and public partners, during its operation. In other cases, a partnership may need to focus more on key needs and the interaction between actors from public policy, research and innovation communities, and end-users around jointly defined challenges.
What SRIAs need to have in common, is a sufficient detailed and distinct level of contents, that allows establishing annual and multi-annual workplans based upon the prioritized lines of actions. Therefore, SRIA development needs to follow a systemic approach (see section above). Horizon Europe insists on openness and inclusiveness in R&I agenda-setting throughout the lifetime of the partnership and also, active and early involvement of Member States. The main expectations are a better alignment of R&I agendas to societal needs, to respond more effectively to SDGs, and the creation of more favorable conditions for promoting take-up and adoption.
The SRIA is a key document of the partnership, which provides guidance for those in charge of designing and implementing the partnership and information for all actors interested or potentially affected with the operation of the partnership. When establishing the partnership proposal, among others, the following group of actors could be considered as target groups of the partnership's SRIA:
The research and innovation communities of the partnership
The public and private research actors (including actors such as public authorities, NGOs, civic organizations that pursue research and/or are have an interest in research results) active in the areas of operation of the partnership, are a key target group of the SRIA. To the research and innovation communities, the SRIA should provide an overview on key topics, measures and instruments being developed, and their role within the partnership. The research and innovation community should also be involved in the process of setting up the SRIA (see section on systemic approach).
Policy Makers and national decision-making bodies
Member States, associated countries and relevant regions should be considered in the early development process of a SRIA and in the communication and outreach activities of a partnership to ensure that relevant stakeholders from all countries are made aware of the opportunities from an early stage of strategy development. By reaching out to policy makers and national decision-making bodies, a SRIA can inform national and regional policymakers and actively contribute to a better alignment of policy making processes and increase synergies.
Operational Management of the partnerships
For the management authorities of the partnership, the SRIA is the main source of information for prioritization of planned activities and support in making choices upon concrete implementation measures. The SRIA can also provide a reference framework for a monitoring and evaluation system.
Other Partnerships
To other partnerships a SRIA provides a valuable source of information for their own planning. A SRIA is the starting point for the identification of synergies between partnerships and planning of transversal actions across partnerships.
There is no universally applicable template for a SRIA, since the SRIA is a strategic document elaborating on a partnership's specific vision, mission, and approach to achieve impact. As the SRIA is intended to provide the baseline for the implementation of annual work plans, the following elements could serve as constituent parts of a SRIA:
Describing a partnership's ambition: Vision & Mission
A vision statement is a statement describing the overarching aspiration of a partnership, of what it hopes to achieve or to become. Vision statements do not provide specific targets, but they provide a broad description of the values and ambitions that a partnership aims to provide. Visions are a visual impact of what a partnership is trying to produce.
For partnership members and contributors, the vision statement should inspire people and motivate them to get involved in the partnership. Vision statements should be clear and concise, not longer than a short paragraph.
In the process of defining a partnership, developing a vision statement can be an inspiring starting point to develop concrete objectives and actions of a partnership.
A mission statement describes what a partnership is about to do in its operations to achieve the vision. Vision and mission must support each other, but the mission statement is more specific. It defines the main principles how the partnership is going to contribute to achieving the mission and in which areas the partnership sets its operations.
Describing intervention logic – objectives and expected pathways to impacts
Vision and mission statements can provide the main guiding principles for developing concrete objectives and options for policy responses of a partnership. In its SRIA, a partnership should provide a set of objectives that link the analysis of the problem(s) it is about to tackle (and the framework conditions driving it) to the prioritized options for partnership responses.
A clear and concrete definition of objectives sets the level of policy ambitions and allows to plan the yardsticks against which policy options are compared and determine the criteria for monitoring and evaluating the achievements of an implemented policy is determined (see Better Regulation Guidelines).
To define a SRIA, one could think of delineating a roadmap of intended outcomes or a programme theory, describing how you get where you want to go. It should thereby reflect upon the drivers and barriers interacting with the actions of the partnership. It should also provide the basis for an agreement (buy-in) of all partners about what needs to happen and who needs to be involved in it.
To develop a programme theory, a number of programming options exist. An overview on options on how to design an intervention logic can be found here.
Priority areas and instruments
A SRIA should define key priority areas, i.e. the main thematic areas it is about to address. These can take various forms and can be defined in terms of key challenges to be tackled, research needs, or research questions etc. For each thematic area a Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda could lay out for example:
Why is the area important?
Which specific challenges/sub-questions need to be dealt with?
How the area is going to be addressed (i.e. which instruments are being used?)?
Who needs to be involved? Estimated timeline and resources
What the main benefits/results are expected from tackling this area?
Measuring progress against intended impacts
A SRIA should lay out its approach towards measuring its outcomes and impacts. Deriving well-developed, measurable key performance indicators (KPIs) from the partnership's programme theory and intended impact pathways is key towards measuring progress against goals in a defined timeframe. KPIs should be defines using SMART criteria: Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, Time-bound.
Based on the definition of impact pathways and KPIs, the SRIA could also lay out a monitoring and evaluation framework for the partnership, providing a reference for the future operationalization of its monitoring system.

Q: How to decode base64-encoded  (CFData/NSData) property in a property list? I am trying to reverse-engineer a preferences file (not for any nefarious purposes, just so that I can script usage of it) that, among other things, has arrays of coordinates stored within it.
This is the salient snippet from the property list:
<dict>
  <key>$class</key>
  <dict>
    <key>CF$UID</key>
    <integer>34</integer>
  </dict>
  <key>coordArray</key>
  <data>
  AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT70vS8/M7xSPwAAAD8AAAA/AAAA
  </data>
  <key>coordCount</key>
  <integer>1</integer>
</dict>

I assume that data string is an array of coordinates (based on its key name). My question is, how can I figure out what data is stored there? If I simply base64-decode that string, I get gibberish. Is there a way to decode it and cast it into whatever format it came from (NSArray, I think)?

A: Why don't you just load it as a property list and inspect the contents?
NSDictionary *plist = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithContentsOfFile:...];

A: That dictionary looks like an archived object graph to me; I'd try unarchiving it using -[NSKeyedUnarchiver unarchiveObjectWithData:] (or -unarchiveObjectWithFile:).

It depends of the project manager option you choose. If you go the html file you could edit it. It's only web stuff on top of the canvas.
Sometimes if I don't want that button to show, I open the HTML file in a code editor and do a search for opened_button.
Then set the opacity to 0.
It is still there and you can click on it, but it is invisible.
Thanks, I put visibility to hidden.

news, council-news,
Maitland and Port Stephens continue to be the council election races to watch as just a few hundred votes separate the top mayoral candidates on the second day of counting. In Port Stephens, the gap has tightened even further between the two mayoral candidates and the lead at Maitland has chopped and changed since the polls closed on Saturday night. The Port Stephens race was on a knife edge on Monday night. Incumbent Independent Ryan Palmer was just over 130 votes in front of Labor's Leah Anderson with about two thirds of the vote counted so far. Mr Palmer had 50.19 per cent of the votes so far, compared to 49.81 per cent going Ms Anderson's way. In Maitland, Independent challenger Philip Penfold re-took the lead on Monday after Labor incumbent Loretta Baker led the race by a few hundred votes at the close of counting on Saturday night. About 220 votes separated the pair with about two thirds of the vote counted on Monday night. IN THE NEWS: Mr Penfold had 33.21 per cent of the vote as it stood, and Ms Baker had 32.65 per cent. Liberal candidate Ben Mitchell was sitting in third with 14.97 per cent, followed by Independent Michael Cooper (6.59 per cent) and Greens candidate John Brown (6.48 per cent). Mr Penfold said on social media on Monday afternoon it may still be difficult for him to succeed, with preferences more likely to go against him. "Though it's nice to be in front at present," he said. The Greens, Liberals and Independent candidates Michael Cooper and Sean Saffari all directed preferences to Labor on their how to vote material. This is the second tight race between the pair in as many elections, with the 2017 mayoral result also going down to the wire before Ms Baker emerged as the winner following several days of counting. Not much has changed in Lake Macquarie and Newcastle, where Labor incumbents Kay Fraser and Nuatali Nelmes declared victory in their respective mayoral races on Saturday night after performing strongly in the first part of counting. Cessnock results also showed little changed, with less than half the votes counted and Labor's Jay Suvaal still in front decisively, claiming more than 42 per cent of the vote so far. In Singleton, incumbent Sue Moore was firmly in the lead with 38.47 per cent with just over a third of the votes counted, ahead of another Independent Danny Thompson on 23.84 per cent. The official result of each election won't be known for several weeks to come with postal voting still open until December 17. iVote is also yet to be counted.

Bourdon tubes are excellent for measuring pressure in a pipe. However, due to their C shaped geometry and oval cross-section, they can be difficult to manufacture. So how can we use our engineering mindset to solve this problem?
Well, luckily for us, there is a solution out there called an Anti-Bourdon Tube. An Anti-Bourdon tube has an initial circular cross-section and straight body. However, the hole is not centered in the center of the tube and is instead located more towards another side. When fluid is used to fill the device, the tube will expand and bend towards the thicker side. This bending motion can then be used to turn a gear to read the pressure. Anti-Bourdon Tubes are easier to fabricate than their regular counterparts, making them a good choice for pressure measurement projects.


December this year will see the Eye of the Hurricane over Copenhagen, not Oslo.
While US President Barak Hussein Obama has said he will travel to Norway to pick up his Nobel Peace Prize on December 10, neighboring Denmark will host the biggest and most important Climate Change Conference ever from December 7 to 18.
Obama has declared he will NOT go to Copenhagen to take part in these most important talks. Can you imagine that?!
As I've already pointed out very thoroughly, all the motivations given from the Nobel Committee for awarding Mr Obama the Peace Prize are 100% invalid. While we can argue and discuss whether his presidency thus far has been a peaceful one or not, it CANNOT BE ARGUED that it took place in 2008. And the Statutes for the Prize are very clear: The work that qualifies for the Peace Prize MUST be done by December 31, 2008. It says so in the very first paragraph – §1 – and its very first sentence. So there is absolutely no doubt that Alfred Nobel considered this crucial point to be an important one.
The good work had to be DONE, it was not to be a wishy-washy vision of something one MIGHT have done if one had the time and resources, somewhere in the future.
So dear Mr Obama, you do not deserve this prize. Not at all. Not because your presidency is not a peaceful one – that remains to be seen – but simply because it did not take place in 2008 or any past years that could qualify for such a golden prize.
And even though you may end up going to Oslo anyhow, not to upset those Norwegians who gave you this honor, you should at least make a day-trip down south to Copenhagen, to show the world that you actually care enough about the Climate Crises and Our Common Future on this planet to actually be present.
If only for a snappy photo op with leaders from the rest of the world.
This Blog takes part in the Blog Action Day 2009.
My emphasis is on the words «during the preceding year», which in this case was the year 2008. All the five Nobel Prizes for 2009 are correctly awarded for work done in 2008 – except, it seems, for the Peace Prize, as we shall see.
Firstly, the announcement from the Norwegian Nobel Committee talks about «Obama as President» and lists what the Nominee has done for the cause of peace «as President». However, the Nominee only became US President on January 20, 2009, so these motivations are in fact not valid.
Secondly, the announcement from the Norwegian Nobel Committee talks about the Nominee's vision of a world free from nuclear arms. But again, this motivation is in fact not valid, as the Nominee's vision was announced as late as September 24, 2009, just days before the announcement from the Norwegian Nobel Committee.
And thirdly, the Nominee's appeal that «Now is the time for all of us to take our share of responsibility for a global response to global challenges» also fails to qualify as a motivation for the Nobel Peace Prize, as these words were first uttered by the Nominee at the United Nations on September 23, 2009.
Conclusion: As the motivations of the Norwegian Nobel Committee for awarding the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize to the Nominee – as stated in its announcement of October 9, 2009 – are all invalid as per the very first sentence of the very first paragraph in the Statutes for the Nobel Foundation, I hereby urge you to annul the October 9 announcement from the Norwegian Nobel Committee and award the Peace Prize for 2009 to someone who in 2008 actually has done a great job for peace, and who actually has conferred the greatest benefit to mankind.


realized that I can be an example for other people who didn't think they could become a model.
Linda Ngo was my instructor/ mentor. From her teaching, I was able to gain confidence and learned to control and deal with any situation I may encounter. I was able to learn how to possess strong communication skills. She taught me the true meaning of a "diva," humble, loyal and confidence! The class is based on being a lady first with aspects of being a model also. Through it all, Linda changed my perspective on how I saw certain things that went on in my personal life. I didn't know that I had the potential to pursue my dream of modeling until I met Linda. She has guided me through the journey and helped me get though all the down talk. As I worked through it, I was able to keep my head up, be diligent and never going to give up. I am now a strong individual that can stay grounded. But I must say, the best thing that I have learned from Linda is, "The Best Model is a Role Model!" My mission is in progress.

Real Life Fairytale: A Girl's 18th Birthday in the Philippines

In many cultures, a girl's "big day" is recognized as her wedding day. There's a big dress and flowers, and speeches and tears. It is planned for months and she is made to feel like a princess. But in the Philippines, many girls don't have to wait that long. Eighteenth birthdays are a grand celebration, called 'the debut'.
"I actually didn't like the idea of celebrating a debut because I was really boyish when I was younger," explained Hannah Cafe, a recent debutante from Palawan. "The thought of wearing a gown and make-up scared me. But when I heard my mom's plans, how wonderful the celebration might be, it changed my mind. It brought out a different side of me — the one that wanted to be treated like a princess even for just one night."

Hannah is one of many young Filipinas who celebrated her 18th birthday with a "debut". Similar coming-of-age celebrations occur around the world, like the quinceañera in parts of Latin America and debutante balls in the U.S.
Several generations ago in the Philippines, debuts were also a way of introducing a young lady to society as a woman — one then eligible for marriage at the age of 18.
"Debuts were the norm at the time," said Maricar Escalona, as she recalled her older sister's headline-making debut in 1967. "It was very common for those from the middle and upper classes to have grand debuts. They were almost as grand as weddings."
"Debuts were a chance for families to show off their daughters so as to find the right husbands — so that they would marry well and to somebody the family knew or was from the same group in society," she continued. "After having her debut, my sister married two years later."
Of course today, the age of marriage is notably higher than in the past, but the Filipino debut lives on. Over the years it has become less marriage-oriented and more of a celebration of the debutante's life and entry to adulthood.
The cost of a fairytale
For many Filipino parents with daughters, the debut is a serious consideration, and one they long plan and save up for.
"My mom told me she also celebrated her debut, and despite it being a very simple one, it was one she loved very much," shared Hannah. "She wanted me to have the same memorable experience but she playfully added: 'Pero mas gagawin kong bongga 'yung sa'yo!' (But I'm going to make yours even grander!)"

Debut packages today can cost hundreds of thousands of Philippine Pesos. Sigrid Sumaylo, an event organizer from Puerto Princesa, Palawan says her debut clients' budget normally ranges from 50,000 PhP ($1,000) to 100,000 PhP ($2,000), not including the debutante's usually glamorous gown and hair and make-up preparations. But grander debut packages in bigger cities like Manila can easily cost from PHP200,000 ($4,000) to PHP600,000 ($12,000).
Hannah guesses hers could have cost around PHP160,000 ($3,200), but she can't be certain. "Every time I asked my mom, she would tell me not to worry about it and just focus on planning the details of my debut," said Hannah. "That figure will remain a guess, because I don't think my parents have any plans of telling me."

Traditions and twists
Today, the debut is a young lady's celebration of her 18th birthday as she enters the age of adulthood. Traditionally, the debutante wears a grand ball gown and is surrounded by family and friends throughout a program that includes a rehearsed cotillion by the entourage, an "18 roses" segment, where the important men in the debutante's life present her with a rose and invite her to dance, and an "18 candles" segment, where the important women in her life give individual speeches and well wishes.

But many debutantes today veer slightly from the traditional path and introduce more modern elements to the celebration.
"I'd say my debut was a traditional one with a twist," described Hannah. "Instead of having the regular '18 roses' and '18 candles', we replaced it with '18 carnations' and '18 sparklers'. And during the 18 carnations, while dancing with different family members and friends, the host read each of their birthday messages to me, making it even more special. I especially loved the dances with my brother and father."

During the 18 flowers segment, it is customary to save the most important men in the debutante's life for last. It also tends to get more emotional during the father-daughter dance, as feelings that the father's little girl has grown up sink in amidst the slow dance and sentimental music.
But Hannah laughed at the question of getting emotional during this portion of her debut. "Actually, we didn't have a slow dance. We danced in cha-cha style and he was so energetic at the time, he had everyone bursting out laughing."
Hannah's debut had other additional 18-themed segments, like the '18 gifts' and '18 cupcakes', but her favorite moment wasn't even part of the program she knew of. "I can say my favorite part was the surprise song prepared by my classmates. They sang Can't Help Falling in Love to me and I really appreciated the fact that they spent time practicing it and keeping it secret from me. When they started singing, my eyes got teary and it was just so sweet."
What makes a fairytale
For an 18-year-old girl, a debut – being surrounded by people she loves most, being shown how much she is loved through speech, song, and dance, and being allowed a bit of whimsy in her make-up and dress – is nothing short of a fairytale.
"A girl's debut marks a very important day in her life," says Hannah. "And it isn't exceptional because of the fancy hotel venue or the big gown. But it's more about the memory she gets to create with her loved ones, celebrating her 18th birthday in an extra special way. That's something she gets to treasure forever."

It's Not Me It's You
by Skillet
Album: Awake (2009)
Let's get the story straight
You were a poison
You flooded through my veins
You left me broken
You tried to make me think
That the blame was all on me
With the pain you put me through
And now I know that it's not me it's you (you)
It's not me it's you (you)
Always has been you
All the lies and stupid things you say and do
It's you (you)
All the lies and pain you put me through
I know that it's not me it's you
It's not me it's you, you
So here we go again
The same fight we're always in
I don't care so why pretend
Wake me when your lecture ends
You tried to make me small
Make me fall and it's all your fault
And now I know that it's not me it's you
Flooding through my veins
Your driving me insane
And now you're gone away
I'm no longer choking
From the pain you put me through
It's not me it's you Writer/s: JOHN COOPER, JOHN LANDRUM COOPER

International Submarine Engineering Research (ISER) develops fully submersible underwater vehicles to execute pre-programmed missions below the sea surface, such as seabed surveying. Hawboldt designed and manufactured a system to launch and recover (LARS) the AUV without requiring a boat or personnel to be in the water.
The LARS is required to safely deploy and capture various sizes and models of this technologically advanced research equipment in the changeable conditions of high-seas operation.
The Hawboldt design team collaborated effectively with ISER staff to create a novel LARS that meets all project criteria. The LARS has allowed ISERs client to extend AUV operations during high sea state conditions. The customized stern deployment design requires little operator training and minimal user maintenance.

The resurgence of Manipur football
India Oct 23, 2019
Indian Super League Oct 23, 2019
Sunil Chhetri, who missed featuring in India's World Cup qualifier against Qatar in Doha on September 10 due to illness, admits he lost his voice from celebrating after India played out a goalless draw against the reigning Asian champions. Chhetri added that watching former Spain and Barcelona midfielder Xavi Hernandez chew his nails in nervous tension was one of the most memorable sights for the Indian team.
"He [Xavi] coaches there now, and is a big influence behind why Qatar play the Barcelona way," said Chhetri, who is yet to recover fully from fever and hence sat out reigning Indian Super League (ISL) champions Bengaluru FC's first day of pre-season training on Friday. "Even their coach [Felix Sanchez] was in Barcelona before. Xavi and he were both doing this [mimics action of chewing fingernails], and I was like, 'Wow! This is nice!'"
Goalkeeper Gurpreet Singh Sandhu, who stood in for Chhetri and produced a stellar performance, called it the "most satisfying" result he had ever got in an India jersey. "I could the see the amount of effort everyone had put. It was unfortunate not to have Chhetri bhai, because he's a player you always want, and the kind of things he does on the pitch is incredible," Gurpreet said, adding that he "lost count" of the number of saves he made, but enjoyed the occasion because he needed to be switched on at all times.
"Regarding captaincy, for me it was just added responsibility that I do my job well in the first place. If you don't set an example, it won't help the other players seeing that one of the senior players is not performing up to the mark."

Chhetri admitted that he was crying before the first minute of the game, forced to sit out due to weakness from his indisposition. "Everyone dislikes not playing. I hate it," he said. "I was cribbing and ill, but the moment the game [started], I was screaming the entire 90 minutes."
"I told someone that we only got one point to show (for our efforts) but it just changed everything for us. Now when we come to the camp, it will be a different team, with the confidence of knowing what you can do if you train well."
Gurpreet called his one-handed save off Qatar left-back Abdelkarem Hassan in the dying minutes of the first half, his favourite save of the night, "It looked very easy on television, but it wasn't, because I had some traffic in front of me and I saw the ball very late." He added that the 2-1 defeat to Oman, where he had a good performance too, taught him to retain his focus till the final whistle in Doha. "I have had moments like that, even in the Oman game, where I felt it was going well, but then things can go south very easily. I was not trying to think about it -- I was just like, 'Just hold on! We're almost there,'" he said.
As the clock ticked over the hour mark, Chhetri became more restless with the finish line in sight. "From the 60th minute onwards, I was just praying for time to pass," he said. "By the 80th minute, when they got desperate and we got three or four chances to counter, I was thinking, '10 minutes more, and we're going to score.'
"If the game went on, trust me, we would have scored. They were (getting drawn into) two-on-two and both times their defender had to lunge at Udanta [Singh]. We would have got a penalty or we would have scored."
Chhetri, whose fastidiousness for a clean diet is well-known, admits to having cheated with two pieces of cake and some kheer (rice pudding) once the final whistle sounded.
"I went down, hugged everyone...probably gave them all the virus," said Chhetri. "I even kissed Rowllin [Borges]. I was screaming in the hotel and I had already lost my voice. I didn't know what I was doing or saying. I was so proud that I was a part of that team.
"It was one of those days where everything worked."

ACWORTH INDUCTED INTO ALL AMERICAN CITY HALL OF FAME
by Bright Side Newspapers • May 11, 2021 • Comments Off on ACWORTH INDUCTED INTO ALL AMERICAN CITY HALL OF FAME
Congratulations to the City of Acworth on being inducted into the All American City Hall of Fame. They formed a vision more than ten years ago and have carried out that vision. And Acworth says: Congratulations to our community for making this recognition possible! The City of Acworth won the All-America City Award in 2010. To celebrate the ongoing work of past winners, the National Civic League sponsors a Hall of Fame Award to recognize an outstanding civic engagement initiative in the community since winning the All-America City
Award. (Pictured above the Bridge connects Parkside and Lakeside as Acworth is split down the middle by train tracks.)
Ten years later Acworth is being recognized for its inclusive and equitable redevelopment of the Parkside District."We are happy to welcome Acworth into the Hall of Fame. The recent equitable redevelopment of the Parkside District shows that the community is still embodying the ideals of an All-America City and is committed to the practice of civic engagement." (Ed Note: There are 20,000 cities that are members of the National Civic League. Four are in their Hall of Fame, The City of Acworth is one of them.)
THE DEVELOPMENT OF PARKSIDE
The City of Acworth, Georgia has a rich history, small-town feel, and a progressive approach to building community while preserving cultural integrity. From the early 1900's, Acworth's Parkside District was racially segregated. The Parkside District is home to two historically black churches as well as two schools that were established during segregation. As the city has grown and thrived, it has earmarked funding to build parks, a community center, new restaurants and businesses, an art center, a history museum, and homes in the Parkside District. In doing so, the city has provided funding to ensure that Black historical landmarks are preserved, and improvements have been made to the properties.
In accordance with the city's comprehensive plan, which achieved broad consensus through outreach and resident engagement, the Parkside District was designated as an opportunity zone in 2010. The designation resulted in the stimulation of economic development and job creation by incentivizing long-term private investments in economically disadvantaged areas.
Parkside District investments and projects include:
Doyal Hill Park. The park was named for Mr. Doyal Hill, who was the first Black Alderman to serve on the Acworth City Council. In addition to beautiful greenspace, Doyal Hill Park has an outdoor interpretive history area featuring public art honoring Acworth's rich Black history.
The park features a sculpture that was designed to embody the spirit of the Black community in Acworth. The steel figure is larger than life to represent the strength, power, and impact that a schoolteacher has in their students' lives. The figure is holding a book, symbolic of education, and a globe to signify that anything is possible with a good education. The globe, the figure, and the book each include important words shared by members of the community during the design of the sculpture.
Acworth Community Center. The Community Center is the centerpiece of the Parkside District and is the home to many community programs, such as Expanding Horizons and the Acworth Achievers which benefit local students.
A conversation series is hosted at the Acworth Community Center. The goal of the series is to open direct lines of communication within the community and to increase transparency and trust between city leadership, the police department, and minority communities.
The center also houses athletic programming and team sports for children and adults with special needs, and extensive programs for senior citizens and at-risk school children.
Infrastructure Improvement. Community Development Block Grant Funding was used to renovate Roberts School, the Rosenwald School, and to develop the trail system at Logan Farm Park, which ties the Parkside District together and ensures the preservation of the historic beauty and greenspace.
Acworth Art House. The Art House was built in 1900 and was originally the home and business of one of the first Black business owners in Acworth. Over the years, the home fell into disrepair, but it was rehabilitated and is now the home to community art classes and displays of work by local artists.
Acworth Depot Park. The Depot features static and electronic displays that tell Acworth's history. The displays have 19 professionally produced videos of Acworth's history, more than 60 oral histories of long-time Acworth residents, and features hundreds of special and unique photographs of Acworth. Black History is Acworth history, and it is prominently displayed and interwoven throughout the various displays. The facility is open every day and is completely free to the public.
Investment in the Parkside District has resulted in many local impacts including the removal of substandard residential property and government housing and replacement with quality subsidized housing for low-income seniors. The surrounding development of new parks, trails, and businesses have resulted in the census track being changed from low to moderate income threshold. The preservation of local Black history landmarks and the expansion of public art has impacted the community by providing educational and cultural opportunities.

Q: Regex to replace space between two ' in Notepad++ I have a line that looks like this:
(267, 'Name Surname')

I want to find the space between name and surname, and change it so it will look like this:
(267, 'Name', 'Surname')

What regex substitution should I make?

A: '([^' ]+) ([^']+)' → '\1', '\2'
This replaces the first space between single quotes. If you remove the space from first [] class, greediness of + ensures that the last space between single quotes is replaced.
The first grouping matches anything after a single quote that doesn't contain single quotes nor spaces. If it was allowed to contain spaces, it will match till the final single quote, but from there it will backtrack as the match needs to be followed by a space.

A: find : '(.*?)\s+(.*?)'
replace with : '\1', '\2'
demo here : http://regex101.com/r/yC5tF7/1


The world keeps advancing at a rapid rate. This leads to the influx of personal cars in city roads and that heightens the concerns people have regarding environmental degradation. The increase in use of private cars is a concern to environmentalists given the impact their pollution has on the environment (Alva-Gonzáles, 2008). It may be convenient traveling in a personal car, but taking a moment to consider environmental degradation may alter this opinion. There is the logistic, financial and attitude aspects, which lead to the preference of either private or public transport. Reducing private car usage in developing countries should be minimized to reduce environmental degradation.
Public transport is the healthy option compared to private transportation due to the minimization of cars that produce fumes along the roads. It is important for people to change their attitudes regarding public travel through presenting its beneficial aspects to the public.
Making people to change from travelling using their private cars and opting for public transport can be effected in a couple of ways (Ecola, Rohr, Zmud, Kuhnimhof, Phleps, Rand Corporation, Rand Transportation, Space, and Technology, 2014).. In consideration to the financial aspect, there is need for allocation of funds to make public transport cheaper. If using subways and buses offers people a chance to save some money, then it would become a desirable option compared to extra costs incurred by driving personal cars.
Train and bus stations ought to be located closely so that accessing them does not involve walking long distances. People feel that there is convenience in travelling using private cars since they can take one to any destination. This is contrary to the allocation provided by buses, which have specific stops. This takes into account the logistical perspective for encouraging people to embrace public transport and save the next generation.
Creating an understanding that adopting public transport has a healthy effect to both people and the environment is a perfect strategy for involving people into accepting the idea. It is upon the government to allocate more resources for enhancing public transport. There is need to increase on reliability, hygiene and cost.

Quick Thought
A Quickie: Trump's NARCISSISM and his Transactional View of the World Explains his Disparagement of His Generals as Beholden to War Profiteers
By CalicoJack on 8 September 2020 • ( 4 Comments )
Suckers and Losers: Trump's Divisiveness is Destroying Our Culture
To defend himself against accusations of calling our military personnel suckers and losers because they didn't paid enough to serve in the military and risk their lives in war, he attacked the officer corps. It has set off the usual tsunami of hand-wringing calls for the fainting couch while clutching their pearls by our usual suspects in the punditry. How can he say such things? He doesn't understand the military! They don't understand the Ol' Pussy Grabber.
Before we get into the reasons the Ol' Pussy Grabber is making such outlandish and fool-hearty claims, let's watch the clip. I'll embed it here, if you haven't seen it already, which you have, so you won't be playing it here, I know.
President Trump: "I'm not saying the military's in love with me. The soldiers are. The top people in the Pentagon probably aren't because they want to do nothing but fight wars so all of those companies that make the bombs and make the planes and make everything else stay happy." pic.twitter.com/XhxKV9lMku
— TV News HQ (@TVNewsHQ) September 7, 2020
We'll break it down in phrases, lines, and sections and interpret each one.
Laura Ingraham's Trump Interview Showcases Trump's Symptoms of Mental Illness
The Ol' Pussy Grabber starts with an easy one, I'm not saying the military is in love with me; the SOLDIERS are…. Are you sure he isn't gay? I mean seriously. Who doesn't want a man in uniform to be in love with them? Hmmm? But, I digress. That's just straight up narcissistic self-aggrandizement: Everybody loves ME! How did they miss that?
He continues, though, The top people in the Pentagon probably aren't [in love with me] because they wanna do nothin' but fight wars so that all that wonderful companies that make the bombs, make the planes, and make everything else stay happy. This one seemed to be particularly confusing and consternating for the pundits I've seen — maybe I need to be watching a better class of pundits — but, again, it is pretty darn easy. His executive dysfunction won't allow him to think a thought without saying it. He's thinking wars, so he's thinking war profiteering, which he's just told you, he's doing. A few years ago he was all about getting out of Iran and Afghanistan, but we just haven't ever gotten around to it. Now, you know why. Gaslighting 101, accuse your critics of doing what you're doing.
The Feculent Touch: al-Baghdadi
I love his next line because it is so narcissistic personality abuser (that's gaslighting, but they tell us in how-to-write-good-school not to repeat words; use sin o' nymphs instead, they said), But we're getting out of the endless wars — straight up lie because that's what the lying liar does more than anyone else in the whole history of human kind. Now, here's the extra little twist of that really makes the lie gaslighting, you know how we're doing. It is that invitation to the listener to verify his lie that causes the damage to the target of his abuse, i.e. his base.
Pardon me… I'm live blogging my watching of the video… I'm sorry… You'll have to give me a minute here… I've got to stop laughing… This is the part they don't show on the pundit shows: We defeated 100% of the ISIS… caliphate — the little tease, he gives this extra long pause between the phrase, "the ISIS" and "caliphate" making you think he's either being very agrammatical or he just doesn't know how to refer to ISIS. Like I said, it was a cruel tease.
100%, he continues, when I was in, when I came in, it was a mess. It was all over. They have it in a certain color. All ISIS. I love the way he says, "a certain color" like no one has seen a color-coded map before. That's narcissism for you. If he's surprised by it, everyone is. If he didn't know it, no one does. "Look at that," he seems to be saying, "they have it in a certain color so you know that it is all ISIS. This part over here in another color, this part isn't ISIS. Just this part here in a certain color is ISIS. Hunh. Not many people know that about how they color maps." You know he's thinking it. Gawd it must be the Pontius Pilate-Biggus Dickus scene in Life of Brian all the time everywhere he goes. You'll watch this one, of course.
A year later, I said where is it? "It is all gone, sir, because of you, it is all gone." Because of my philosophy but be all gone. And if you cannot see this as straight up narcissistic delusional bull shit, you really do need to watch the video because he does an Emmy award winning performance when he plays the military person who says, "It is all gone, sir, because of you…" You could hear the love, devotion, and admiration that must've been in that enlisted man's — couldn't be no officer, now, could it — voice. You could see it in his face as he portrayed the stunned young non-comm struck by the utter genius of this very model of a modern stable genius.
The WATCH: Purging the WH
Why is the Ol' Pussy Grabber disparaging his generals? Because he suspects that it was General John Kelly or someone close to him that is the source for the narcissistic wound of his suckers and losers comments. And, when a narcissist is wounded, he must destroy the source of the injury.
Really, he does. Check out what he said about General Kelly:
"He was with me, didn't do a good job, had no temperament, and ultimately he was petered out. He got eaten alive. He was unable to handle the pressure of this job."
You think a man who would profit off of caging children, didn't have the temperament to work in the immorality of the WH? It got to him? He petered out? Jesus.
He was "eaten alive" and "unable to handle the pressure of this job." Really? At the time, I thought little of John Kelly for doing the job, but I never thought he was unable to handle the pressure. Christ the man has been in combat. How could associating with the Ol' Pussy Grabber be worse?
He's a Narcissist, Part Infinity
Because the Ol' Pussy Grabber thinks he's the one what spilled the beans, he's got to be thrown under the bus along with everybody else who's been stuffed under that damn bus over the years.
He's a narcissist. It's all you need to know about him. It makes him utterly predictable. No need to gnash your teeth, rend your clothes, and scrape your boils with shards of shattered pottery. See? It's simple.
Sign of Life
Here's the part where you let me know that you're still awake! You have a choice.

Suckers and Losers: Trump's Divisiveness is Destroying our Country

Calico Jack de-constructs a Trump performance.
His problem with the Generals is the same problem he has with "The Deep State", with people like Mr. Mueller, and virtually everybody at the USPS – non-political career professionals who value doing their job well no matter who is in the WH or Congress, who take pride in their service – i.e. – internally motivated, socially motivated, not transaction-ally. He cannot understand such people. He can't believe they are not pursuing a hidden agenda in competition with him, or he has to see them as suckers who don't get how the world really works. What he does not understand, he fears and must attack or dismiss.
His lack of understanding of how human beings work makes him wholly unsuited for holding office. I am astonished and disheartened that his mental illness doesn't get more emphasis in the press and that the GOP has let this situation continue for as long as it has.
One thing is for sure, the GOP will use criticisms of Trump to attack Biden and other Democratic presidents. The legacy of Trump will linger for a long long time.
If Trump does lose this election, it is likely that he will spend the rest of his life (hopefully in prison) in the delusion that he is still the rightful President.
Yes, the GOP will continue to project Trump's flaws on Democrats.

'We played for pride' - WI batting great Chanderpaul believes many modern generation players motivated by money
West Indies legend Shivnarine Chanderpaul believes several of the current generation are more motivated by money as opposed to the pride that drove their predecessors to global success.
Over the last several years the Caribbean team's struggles with the losing its players to lucrative T20 league around the world is a well noted one. At various points in time some of the region's most notable players have found themselves at loggerheads with Cricket West Indies (CWI) over availability issues.
On occasion, the Windies best players have opted to take part in the world's year-round T20 leagues ahead of international fixtures, which has left the team without some of its most experienced campaigners.
"We played for pride," added Chanderpaul told Australia's Sydney Morning Herald, on the heels of his recent induction to the International Cricket Council's Hall of Fame.
"There are a lot of Premier leagues around the world. West Indies cricket is not what these guys would depend on these days, so I don't think they're as keen. They can go elsewhere and play and not focus on having to represent West Indies," he added.
"Whatever comes up, the guys are happy to make as much as they can while their cricket career lasts," he added.

« Brathwaite, Brooks and Holder get fifties on day one of first tour match ahead of Australia Tests West Indies bowlers struggle on day two of tour match against NSW/ACT XI after Thomas and Joseph's 104-run partnership »
India's stand-in captain Hardik Pandya lamented a "shocker" of a pitch at Ekana Stadium and called for better surfaces after a slender T20I victory over New Zealand.
The hosts edged past the Black Caps with one ball remaining in Lucknow, winning by six wickets in a low-scoring thriller to level the three-match T20I series.
New Zealand only managed 99-8 from their 20-over allocation on a difficult wicket but made India wait until the final over for victory as Suryakumar Yadav saw his side over the line with a vital 26 not out.
Pandya, captaining in the absence of white-ball veteran Rohit Sharma, was alongside Suryakumar at the end unbeaten on 15 but expressed his disappointment with the surface at home.
"I always believed we will finish the game," Pandya said. "It went quite deep, but that is how it is. In these kinds of games, it is important to not panic.
"Rather than taking risks, we rotated the strike. Having said that, this is a shocker of a pitch. We need to make sure we have better pitches. Even 120 would have been a winning total here.
"We kept to our plans, we made sure they did not rotate the strike, and the wickets kept falling. Dew didn't play much of a role because if you see they were able to spin the ball more than us.
"It was a shocker of a wicket. The ball was flying for even the fast bowlers."
The in-form Suryakumar continues to rise his stock within white-ball cricket, though his 31-ball 26 was a far cry from his usual flamboyance and aggressive shot-making.
Having blasted 112 and 51 in his two previous T20I appearances against Sri Lanka earlier in January, Suryakumar acknowledged an alternate approach was required on Sunday.
"A different version of [Suryakumar] today," he said after receiving the Player of the Match award. "Adapting to the situation was very important. After losing [Washington Sundar], I had to make sure I batted until the end.
"[Sundar's run out] was my mistake, I didn't see where the ball went. Of course, it was a challenging wicket, but you have to be able to adapt.
"We just needed one hit in the end, and it was very important to calm ourselves down.
"Before I got the winning runs, Hardik came up to me and told me you will hit the winning runs this ball. That gave me a lot of confidence."
With an ODI series victory already secured, India will look for a white-ball double over New Zealand in Wednesday's T20I decider in Ahmedabad.
India edge low-scoring thriller to tie T20I series with New Zealand
India thrillingly came out on top with one ball remaining to level their three-match T20I series with New Zealand after a remarkably tight second match on Sunday.
The hosts won by six wickets at Ekana Stadium but only just managed to reach the low target set by New Zealand during what seemed a poor innings that saw them finish on 99-8.
It was the first time the Black Caps had failed to reach 100 runs in a T20I against India, though it was not as bad as it first seemed on a difficult pitch.
Finn Allen's (11) reverse sweep attempt from Yuzvendra Chahal's (1-4) delivery saw him knock the ball on to himself and then the stumps for India's breakthrough, and Devon Conway (11) soon followed when caught behind by Ishan Kishan off Washington Sundar (1-17).
Glenn Phillips (5) was the third to fall victim to a botched reverse sweep, and Daryl Mitchell (8) also failed to reach double digits, with that pair removed either side of Mark Chapman (14) being run out.
Michael Bracewell (14) and Mitchell Santner (19 not out) formed one of only two stands to yield 20 runs, before New Zealand's innings petered out with only five in the final over.
India's response was not emphatic – they also failed to register a single six.
Shubman Gill (11) gave Allen an easy catch with a top edge off Bracewell (1-13) for an early boost, before Kishan (19) was run out and Rahul Tripathi (13) was caught at deep midwicket.
Suryakumar Yadav (26 not out) – aided ably by captain Hardik Pandya (15 not out) – ultimately dragged India over the line, getting just enough power on the penultimate ball to reach the boundary and take India to 101-4.
Suryakumar decisive when it counts
Having managed at least 47 runs in each of his previous three T20Is, Suryakumar is not used to struggling to amass significant totals.
Much like everyone else on Sunday, he could not quite find momentum with his 26 coming off 31 balls, but the fact he had the nous to be the only batter to break the 20-runs barrier should not be overlooked.
New Zealand bowlers give them a fighting chance
The batsmen should not take too much blame – pretty much all of them from both sides struggled on a wicket that Hardik criticised afterwards – but the Black Caps bowlers had plenty of work to do here.
The wickets did not tumble with quite the same regularity as when they were in bat, but with the ball they ensured the match remained tight – the fact they took it to the final over is commendable in itself.
Fifties for Pollard, Fletcher as MI Emirates crush Desert Vipers by 157 runs in ILT20 League
Captain Kieron Pollard and opener Andre Fletcher both scored half-centuries as the MI Emirates crushed Desert Vipers to go third in the standings of the ILT20 in Abu Dhabi on Sunday.
MI Emirates scored 241-3 from their 20 overs before skittling the Desert Vipers out for just 84.
Fletcher scored his 50 from 39 balls in a 141-run opening partnership with Player of the Match Mohammad Waseem, who hit 11 fours and two sixes in his top score of 86.
Fletcher's dismissal in the 13th over saw ME Emirates slip from 141-0 to 152 for 3 as Waseem was next to go in the 15th over with big hitter Najibullah Zadran going two balls later for a duck.
Enter Captain Pollard who smashed his 50 from just 19 balls while he and Dan Mousley mounted an unbeaten stand of 89 in 32 balls to propel MI Emirates to their daunting total.
Pollard's unbeaten 50 contained four fours and four sixes while Mously contributed a valuable 31 from just 17 balls with three fours and two sixes.
Tom Curran, who had the wickets of Waseem and Zadran was expensive yielding 63 runs from his four overs.
The pressure of the score proved too much for the Vipers. They crumbled in the face of the bowling of Fazalhaq Farooqi who took 3-18, Zahoor Khan 1-9 and Imran Tahir, who wrapped up the match with 2-18 in 3.1 overs.
With their fourth win in seven games, MI Emirates are third in the six-team standings with nine points, one behind Gulf Giants and Desert Vipers, who still lead despite the loss.

African-American civil rights activist (1913-2005)
Rosa Louise McCauley Parks (February 4, 1913 – October 24, 2005) was an African-American civil rights activist. She was called "the mother of the Modern-Day American civil rights movement" and "the mother of the freedom movement".

Raymond Parks (1932–1977)
Parks is best known for what she did in her home town of Montgomery, Alabama on December 1, 1955. While she sat in a seat in the middle of the bus, the bus driver told her to move to the back of the bus so a white passenger could take the seat in the front of the bus. During this time, when there were no white seats for white people, black people were told to get up out of their seat. Parks refused to move. She was a member of the local chapter of National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP). Like so many others she was tired of being treated as a lower class person because of the color of her skin.
She was arrested. This led to the Montgomery bus boycott. The boycott lasted 381 days. This caused a change in the law. After that, black people were able to sit wherever they wanted to on the bus. Her refusal to let others treat her differently was an important symbol in the campaign against racial segregation.
2 Browder v. Gayle
3 After the boycott
Early yearsEdit
Rosa Parks was born in Tuskegee, Alabama, on February 4, 1913.[1] Her parents were James and Leona McCauley.[1] She was mainly of African ancestry. One of her great-grandfathers was Scots-Irish and went to Charleston, South Carolina as an indentured servant.[2]
Her father left home to find work when Rosa was 2 years old.[3] Her mother taught school in another town. Rosa and her brother Sylvester were brought up by their grandparents.[3]
Rosa started school in 1919 when she was 6 years old. At that time, schools were segregated. There were black schools and white schools. Later, Parks remembered how buses took white students to their school, but black students had to walk to theirs:
I'd see the bus pass every day... But to me, that was a way of life; we had no choice but to accept what was the custom. The bus was among the first ways I realized there was a black world and a white world.[4]
In 1924 she went to the Montgomery Industrial School for Girls in Montgomery, Alabama.[5] After 5 years, she left school and went to work in a shirt factory.[5] She also took care of her grandmother.
On December 1, 1955, Parks got onto a city bus to go home after work.[6] She paid her 10¢ and sat down in the first row of seats behind the painted line on the floor which marked the black section.[a] After several stops, more white passengers got on the bus. The bus driver ordered Parks and three other black people to give up their seats so the white people could sit down. The other three moved to the back of the bus, but Parks slid over to the window.[8] She said she was following the law by sitting in the right section. Later, she said that when she was told to go to the back of the bus, "I thought of Emmett Till and I just couldn't go back."[9] (Till was a black 14-year-old boy who was lynched in Mississippi about three months earlier.)[10]
The driver stopped the bus and called the police.[6] Two police officers arrested Parks and took her to jail for violating Alabama's bus laws.
Parks being fingerprinted after her arrest
Her mother called upon Edgar Nixon to bail her out. Nixon was the president of the local NAACP chapter. Nixon knew the danger Parks was in and immediately arranged her bail.[6]
The local NAACP had been looking for a test case to challenge the bus segregation laws.[6] Parks was a respected working woman. She was well-spoken, and her case would be a good way to challenge the law. It was decided that on December 5, a boycott of all the buses in Montgomery would be held.[11]
The word was spread throughout the black community of the intended bus boycott. Black ministers told their congregations to support the boycott.[12] On Monday, December 5th, Rosa Parks had to appear in court.[13] This was also the first day black riders would stay off the Montgomery buses. The streets of Montgomery were filled with black people walking to work.[13] Black children walked to school.[13] That same morning, all Montgomery buses were assigned two motorcycle policemen to guard against any black gangs intimidating riders.[14] There were no black gangs. The black community simply cooperated with the boycott. The buses remained empty all day. White riders fearing trouble stayed off the buses as well.[14]
In addition to the charge of violating the bus laws, Parks was also charged with disorderly conduct. Her trial was quick, only about 30 minutes. The court found her guilty of all charges and fined her $14.[15] The boycott continued.
Browder v. GayleEdit
Parks appealed her conviction. Her attorney, Fred Parks, and others in the NAACP brought an appeal named Browder v. Gayle.[b][16] The appeals court ruled on June 19, 1956 in favor of the black citizens of Montgomery. But the city appealed the decision.
On September 13, 1956, the Supreme Court of the United States upheld the lower court. The bus boycott ended.[16] It had lasted 381 days.[17] Black citizens of Montgomery could ride the buses and sit where they chose.[16] Rosa Parks rode the bus again on December 21, 1956.[18] This time it was an integrated bus. Ironically, she had the same bus driver who had her arrested the year before. In an interview, Parks said "He didn't react (pause) and neither did I".[18]
Rosa Parks was a heroine of the black community. While she didn't do it alone, her actions sparked a fire that led to great changes.[19]
After the boycottEdit
After the Montgomery Bus Boycott, Parks went through many difficulties. She lost her job at the department store. Her husband was forced to quit his job.
In 1957, Parks and her husband left Montgomery for Hampton, Virginia to find work. In Hampton, Parks found a job as a hostess in an inn at Hampton Institute, a historically black college.
Later, Parks and her husband moved to Detroit, Michigan. Parks continued to work as an activist. For years, she worked for United States Congressman John Conyers. After that, she worked as an activist against apartheid in South Africa. She also opened a center in Detroit that gave advice to black youth about careers and job opportunities.[20]
President Bill Clinton awarding Parks the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
In 1999, President Bill Clinton awarded Parks a Congressional Gold Medal. This is the United States' highest honor (most important award) for civilians. When he gave her the award, President Clinton said:
We must never ever, when this ceremony is over, forget about the power of ordinary people to stand in the fire for the cause of human dignity. [20]
Parks died on October 24, 2005, at her home in Detroit due to dementia.[21] On October 30, her casket lay in state in the United States Capitol.[20] This is a great honor for people in the United States.
↑ The Montgomery city code made bus drivers segregate white and black passengers. They were directed to assign seats based on a person's color.[6] Black people in Montgomery made up 75 to 80 percent of bus riders.[7] But they were crowded into the back seats of the buses and many had to stand while the front seats remained empty.[7]
↑ Aurelia Browder, another black woman who had been discriminated against by the bus system, was the lead plaintiff. Three other woman joined her but not Rosa Parks. Her legal advisers felt her case could not go beyond the state courts. The case was also named for the lead defendant W.A. Gayle, who was the mayor of Montgomery.[16]
