When it rains, it pours! In the land of Minecraft, a new type of drought is forming
By Ryan Rafferty The flood waters are coming in, and in the land where the game has become a beloved global phenomenon, it is pouring.
On the outskirts of a small town called Bexley, the weather is turning cold and rainy.
Residents have been waiting for the last few days to see if the rainy season has begun.
But with the forecast for the weekend forecast for rainfall, the community is not quite ready to take to the skies yet.
"It's raining and we have to wait for the rain to come down and then we can do it," says Chris Cottrell.
The town is a relatively small town of about 50 people and just outside of town is an area that is currently under a flood warning due to a high level of rainfall.
The forecast for that particular area will bring a lot of water to the area.
"We're going to get the heaviest rains this weekend, so that means we're probably going to see a lot more people and a lot less water," says Cottrel.
The village is not alone.
A similar situation has been happening for some time now, with some areas of the UK and France seeing the first of several record-breaking rainfalls in just the past few days.
"The whole of England is in trouble," says Mark Williams, a meteorologist at the Met Office.
"The rain is going to come in, it's going to rain, and then it's just going to fall," he says.
"There are lots of areas where the rain is coming down, and we don't know how long it's actually going to stay down."
As the country's rainfall season approaches, there is some hope that the weather system will ease off.
The UK has been getting much of the rain from the North Atlantic, with much of that rain falling in the south-west and north-east.
"It's only in the North Sea that we have this sort of a pattern, where the UK is going north-westward and we're getting more of the rainfall," says Williams.
However, the rainfall is expected to drop further into the north, bringing more of a wetter, drier situation in the UK.
"If we can keep that rain on the ground for the next few days, that will help us avoid a lot worse than the worst," says David O'Brien, a member of the Met Agency's forecasters.
It's a scenario that is being seen across the world, with the US, Canada and Japan all reporting a similar situation.
"They're going northwards, they're drying out, and they're getting a lot drier conditions," says O'Brian.
The weather system that is causing the driest conditions in the world is the El Nino, a phenomenon that occurs every few years when the world's Pacific Ocean warms.
During this time of warmer water temperatures in the Pacific, the rain falls over the equator and then gradually cools in the Southern Hemisphere.
"As the El Niño warming happens, we're seeing a lot fewer storms coming through and more rainfall that's going down into the tropics," says Tom Clark, a senior scientist at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
That rainfall pattern has led to some of the drier, driest seasons in the US.
In some parts of the country, the average rainfall is just below 1 centimetre per year, which is the same amount as the annual rainfall that fell in New Zealand in the last drought year.
"We're actually seeing less rain this year than we've seen in years past, but there are a lot going on in the atmosphere," says Clark.
In the UK, there have been a number of instances of record-shattering rainfall.
In 2015, a record amount of rainfall fell in just two weeks, with more than 4.5 inches of rain falling for the month.
That year also saw the first ever recorded rainfall in the entire country, when more than 6.5 million litres of rain fell in a single day in July.
That rainfall event was also the biggest in the history of Britain.
This is one of the most significant drought years in the country.
"I think there is still some hope, but I would be cautious to say we've actually got a drought here, as it's still just a few weeks away," says William O'Dwyer, a lecturer at the University of Birmingham.
In Australia, drought conditions have been the norm for much of this year, with drought conditions across much of northern and southern Australia being reported for the first time in the past week.
In Tasmania, which has been hit by record-setting rainfall for the past month, drought-related issues have been reported in all parts of Tasmania.
"There's still a chance that we'll get a few more record-breaker years in this year," says Peter Wootton, an adviser at the Hobart Institute of

What's next for liberty landscape lighting?
A group of liberty landscape designers, architects, and landscape artists have teamed up with the city of Kichler to create a lighting system that aims to offer an alternative to traditional landscaping that doesn't require the use of a lot of electricity.
Liberty landscape lighting is being designed to be powered by solar panels, using the sun's rays to generate a steady stream of light.
The lights can be arranged in any orientation and can be set to any time of day or night.
They can be positioned on any surface, and the LED lights can even be positioned anywhere in the landscape.
The project was conceived by Kichlers landscaping team, and will be completed by the end of the year.
The plan is to expand the project in 2017.
"It's an opportunity to change the landscape and create a new light," said Alex Kichner, the designer of the project.
"We can't create the same landscape in the same space, but by doing that, we can create something different and interesting."
In order to achieve their vision, Kichners designers built a new power plant for their project.
They used the new plant to produce their own solar power, and they installed a new system of LED lights.
"It's a completely new way of creating light that uses solar energy," said the designer, "and it allows us to create the light we wanted without using the same amount of energy as we normally would."
The team is currently working with the Kichlers Department of Public Works and Public Safety to see if the lights can work in conjunction with existing power lines.
This could be a big step forward in lighting up the landscape, especially as it's still not legal to install lights on private property.
Kichler is the first city in Germany to take a step in this direction.
The city plans to install the lights in 2017, and it plans to extend the project to other parts of the city in the future.

Bonhoeffer Speaks Today is an important book, especially for those of us in the SBC. Bonhoeffer is not the poster-boy for Evangelical theology, nor is he the liberal caricature he is sometimes portrayed as. But where he is right, he is a shining example to the church of Christ, and where he is right is where it matters most. Dr. Mark DeVine, Professor of Theology at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary has given us an accessible, brief, and powerful treatment of Bonhoeffer's life and doctrine. In a time when American christians, and Southern Baptists particularly, often love safety and shun suffering, have bought into the materialistic values of the west, reject the sufficiency of Scripture in determining the will of God, and exalt the priesthood of the believer, over the reformation (and Biblical) concept of the priesthood of all believers, Bonhoeffer's words, and DeVine's treatment of them, deserve special attention.
Chapter One is the story of Bonhoeffer's life and helpfully explains some of the man's personality, theology, ministry, struggles and death. It will likely feel a bit long to some readers, but it is important to put a human face on the famous author. I have read The Cost of Discipleship a few times and this chapter helped me to process what I have already read.
Chapter Two gives us Bonhoeffer's perspective on Christian ethics and "Knowing and Doing the Will of God." I have already blogged a bit on this chapter here, but let me summarize by saying that this is a Scripture-centered, Gospel-driven approach that really resonates with me.
Chapter Three dives into the issues of the image of God, the individual, and 'The Community of Believers." DeVine's explanation of the value and place of the individual in Bonhoeffer's writings is wonderful. Bonhoeffer is quotes as saying, "through the call of Jesus men become individuals." As important a place the community has in the theology of Bonhoeffer, there is no relationship with Christ apart from his response to the risen Savior. And yet, salvation and the work of God happens in and through the redeemed community. Great words here for all of us, especially as one truth often ecplispes the other by becoming an exagerated half-truth.
Chapter Four speaks to the popular issues of "Witness and Relevance." Bonhoeffer warns the church of the danger of pursuing relevance rather than proclaiming it. One does not make the Bible, or the Gospel, relevant. It is the most relevant issue a man must face.
Where the question of relevance becomes the theme of theology, we can be certain that the cause has already been betrayed and sold out.... The intention should not be to justify Christianity to the present age, but to justify the present age before the Christian message.
He cautions against nationalism in the church as a culprit in silencing the prophetic voice of God's people. And yet he encouraged a "worldly Christianity," not promoting blind assimilation of church into culture, but pointing to the church's responsibility to understand its culture, and speak to it in words it can understand.
Chapter Five hits so many different themes, focusing on "Freedom, Suffering and Hope," I will only say it is a powerful end to the book. The German pastor calls us to pursue God, not happiness, and in doing so we will find true happiness. All of this comes in the context of experiencing freedom and suffering while anticipating future glory.
The book is not just worth your time, it is important. Get it, read it, pass it on. Or better yet, tell your friends and church members to buy their own copy. This was a wonderful book on many levels, but most importantly I am hopefull of walking closer with Christ because of it.

Симона Таннер Шоме (1916 — 25 мая 1962) — уроженка Франции, являвшаяся борцом за мир и волонтеркой SCI (Международная гражданская служба). Вела активистскую деятельность во Франции с 1943 по 1945 и в Алжире с 1951 по 1956 года. В 2011 В Израиле за ее действия по спасению еврейских детей во время Второй мировой войны удостоилась звания Праведник народов мира.

Ранние годы жизни
Симона Шоме родилась во время войны 1914-1918 годов, однако точные дата и место рождения неизвестны. Никогда не знала своего отца, что повлияло на нее в ранние годы. Ее мать вышла замуж во второй раз и ее отчим перевез всю семью в Канны. Взаимоотношения между Шоме и ее отчимом были напряженными. В 1942 году она вместе со своей подругой присоединилась к молодежному клубу CLAJ (Club loisirs action jeunesse) и в 1943 стала его секретарем.  Во время Второй мировой войны она продолжала работать в клубе и спасала жизни еврейских детей во Франции.

Шоме и SCI (Международный Гражданский Сервис)
SCI был очень важен для Шоме и ее жизни. Организация SCI вышла на контакт с ней и она решила стать волонтером от имени организации. В период между 1945 и 1950 годами  осуществляла активистскую деятельность во Франции и между 1951 и 1956 годами была долгосрочным волонтером в Алжире. Своего мужа, Эмиля Таннера, она встретила так же в SCI, где он работал секретарем. Во время волонтерства в SCI  Шоме исследовала полезные аспекты образования, затем основала школу в Бузареа. Она хотела помочь людям, которые не знали, как читать и писать, и детям, которые нуждались в образовании.

Смерть и наследие
Шоме была убита 25 мая 1962 года в ходе войны за независимость Алжира.

Дети, которым Шоме спасла жизнь, Франсуа Гельберт, Гилберт и Максим Аллуш, присутствовали на поминании, чтобы почтить ее.

В ее честь была установлена памятная доска на Коль дю Фанже 7 мая 2005 года. Кроме того, поскольку она спасла жизни еврейских детей во Франции во время Второй мировой войны, то она была отмечена государством Израиль.  24 октября 2011 года она была удостоена звания «Праведник народов мира» в Париже,  на Французской площади, 78 по улице Бонапарта. Также  ее имя указано на памятной табличке "Стена исчезнувших людей", посвященной памяти погибших во время войн в Алжире, расположенной на стене алжирского министерства иностранных дел.

Naked Aggression is an American hardcore punk band started in Madison, WI in late 1990. Formed as a protest against the first Gulf War and the right-wing, the band espouse a strong message of libertarian socialism, feminism and anarchism. The band was formed by Kirsten Patches on vocals and Phil Suchomel on lead guitar. Naked Aggression have held benefit shows for various causes, including Food Not Bombs, AIDS research, pro-choice groups, women's clinics, rape crisis centers, political prisoners and school art departments. They were featured in Penelope Spheeris' 1998 gutter punk documentary 'The Decline of Western Civilization III.' Shortly after formation, Kirsten and Phil moved the band to Oakland, CA, then later to Los Angeles. 1991 to 1998 saw the band release three full length records, three seven inches, one live record and several compilation exclusive songs. In support of their output they extensively toured the United States, Mexico, Canada and Europe. Penelope Spheeris approached the band in 1996 and as a result they are featured in her documentary film "The Decline of Western Civilization: Part III", for which Phil recorded his first soundtrack. In 1998, just as they were about to embark on a national tour in support of their newest album, The Gut-Wringing Machine, the band came to an abrupt end when Phil died from complications arising from his chronic asthma. Five years past. Five years of mourning. Kirsten participated in other projects, but nothing satisfied her intense anger and frustration with world politics like Naked Aggression. Thus, in 2003, in light of the second George Bush's Gulf War, Kirsten thought it fitting to reform the band in order to continue carrying on the message started over a decade ago under astoundingly similar geopolitical circumstances. Since the reformation Naked Aggression has toured the U.S., and just returned from Europe with a new split Lp with, Die Schwarzen Schaffe, on Compary Records. Currently they are working on songs for a new full-length album. - taken from the band's MySpace page : http://www.myspace.com/nakedaggression Read more on Last.fm.

Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon announced for PS5, Xbox Series, PS4, Xbox One, and PC
Due out in 2023.
Dec 8 2022 / 10:41 PM EST
Publisher Bandai Namco and developer FromSoftware have announced Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC (Steam). It will launch in 2023.
Here is an overview of the game, via Bandai Namco:
Dynamic, fast-paced mech action.
Based on the knowledge gained during joint development of their recent titles, Bandai Namco Entertainment and FromSoftware seek to deliver a new action game. By combining FromSoftware's longstanding expertise in mech games and their signature robust gameplay, Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon will be a new action experience.
In Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon, players will assemble and pilot their own mech with 3D maneuverability to move freely through three dimensional fast-paced missions. Take on difficult challenges and overwhelm your enemies with dynamic movements that make full use of ranged and melee combat. Players can enjoy a variety of actions that can only be truly realized with mechs.
A mysterious new substance was discovered on the remote planet, Rubicon 3. As an energy source, this substance was expected to dramatically advance humanity's technological and communications capabilities. Instead, this substance caused a catastrophe that engulfed the planet and the surrounding stars in flames and storms, forming a Burning Star System.
Almost half a century later, the same substance resurfaced on Rubicon 3, a planet now contaminated and sealed off by the catastrophe.
Extra-terrestrial corporations and resistance groups fight over control of the substance. The player infiltrates Rubicon as an independent mercenary and finds themself in a struggle over the substance with the corporations and other factions.
Hidetaka Miyazaki will be involved as the Initial Game Director. Based on the initial development, Masaru Yamamura has taken over as Director.

Q: Find duplicates for a list of objects in c# If a list has 2 or more rows, can we compare the values of rows against that list to check if they are matching with any other inorder to merge them if found any
I have below list which has 2 records. Need to check if values of column 1,column 2 are same.if so need to add the Value column in inner list.
{
List: [
{
Amount :[{Value : 10}],
Column1: "Objective 1",
Column2: "6789"
},{
Amount :[{Value : 10}],
Column1: "Objective 1",
Column2: "6789"
}]}

I have fetched the distinct values in list and compared with the actual list to add. But that's not working
Tried using distinct(). It gives only the distinct rows but need to merge the values if duplicate found
I must have output as single row with value as 20
{
List: [
{
 Amount :[{Value : 20}],
Column1: "Objective 1",
Column2: "6789"
}]}

A: Assuming you have something like this:
var list = new List<MyClass>
{
    new MyClass
    {
        Column1 = "Objective 1",
        Column2 = "6789" ,
        Amount = new List<Amount>
        {
            new Amount { Value = 10 }
        }
    },
    new MyClass
    {
        Column1 = "Objective 1",
        Column2 = "6789" ,
        Amount = new List<Amount>
        {
            new Amount { Value = 10 }
        }
    }
};

...you can group the list by the identifying properties (e.g. Column1 and Column2) and select new instances where the amount value is a sum of all the amount values in the group:
var result = list
    .GroupBy(x => new { x.Column1, x.Column2 })
    .Select(grp => new MyClass
    {
        Column1 = grp.Key.Column1,
        Column2 = grp.Key.Column2,
        Amount = new List<Amount>
        {
            new Amount
            {
                Value = grp.SelectMany(x => x.Amount).Sum(x => x.Value)
            }
        }
    }).ToList();

Are you looking for a list of the best games like Ratchet & Clank? Well, we've got you covered.
The Ratchet & Clank series is known for its quirky characters, satisfying shooter-platformer gameplay, and cinematic-quality presentation.
Although the franchise is still around today, we thought we'd share our top picks for what to play after you've completed the most recent entry, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart.
In this list, we'll be recommending games that are similar to Ratchet & Clank in one way or another, along with the platforms they're available on.
Make sure to check back as we continue to update this list with new games in the future.

Platforms: PC, Xbox One
At the time of its release, Sunset Overdrive was seen as a significant departure for Ratchet & Clank developer Insomniac Games. However, in hindsight, we can see it shares many commonalities with Insomniac's other titles regarding writing and specific aspects of gameplay.
The first thing you'll notice is plenty of breaking of the fourth wall, a recurring joke in Insomniac games. Additionally, one of the game's core mechanics is using grind rails to get around the open-world, which feels reminiscent of the grinding sections in various Ratchet & Clank games.
Lastly, it features a wide selection of powerful weapons, gadgets, and gizmos with ridiculous names like 'The Flaming Compensator', which happens to be a shotgun with two wooden balls hanging from its handle. While Sunset Overdrive does swap out R&C's futuristic sci-fi setting in favor of a more contemporary punk rock-obsessed metropolis, its environments are highly-detailed and fun to explore.

Platforms: PC, PS4, Xbox One, Switch
Although Toys for Bob is the developer behind Spyro Reignited, Insomniac is responsible for making the original three games in the series, which carry their distinct brand of humor. Much like Ratchet, Spyro is portrayed as a sarcastic do-gooder who's not afraid to make the occasional pun.
As far as gameplay and story go, it's classic Spyro. You'll be flying across worlds, rescuing fellow dragons, finding collectibles, and defeating evil foes. Included are Spyro the Dragon, Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage! and Spyro: Year of the Dragon.
Toys for Bob did a fantastic job recreating the Spyro universe, updating environments to look better than ever before, and even injecting some much-needed detail into some of the old character designs. Reignited Trilogy is the best way to experience these games on modern consoles if you've got a craving for some nostalgia.

Video can't be loaded because JavaScript is disabled: Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order – Launch Trailer (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIl2z5wwjdA)
Platforms: PC, PS4, Xbox One
If you've ever wanted to venture far, far away from the Solana Galaxy setting of most R&C games, then Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order might be the game for you. Developed by Respawn, the game manages to capture the cinematic quality of the films and adapt it to a video game in a way that feels both engaging and authentic.
Set after the events of Episode III, the game sees you playing as Cal Kestis, a Jedi Padawan on a mission to uncover the mysteries of an ancient civilization. He soon finds himself in the crosshairs of the Empire and their deadly Inquisitors, who continue to pursue you throughout the game.
The gameplay is a mix of real-time combat, open-ended exploration, and 3D platforming on par with the Ratchet & Clank games. The game does a great job of using the Star Wars mythos to flesh out its world, including numerous in-universe references, interesting character backstories, and big set-pieces set in familiar locations.

Uncharted 4: A Thief's End
Platform: PS4
Over the years, Insomniac and Naughty Dog have developed somewhat of a friendly rivalry while operating under the PlayStation brand. Their constant attempts to one-up each other with every release is reflected in several entries in both the R&C and Uncharted series, resulting in some of the best PlayStation exclusives to date.
If you've dabbled around with the Uncharted games before or simply want to experience the most recent installment, we recommend checking out Uncharted 4: A Thief's End. While it's tonally much darker than your average R&C game, you can always count on Nathan Drake to spout the occasional quip or witty insult at his foes.
Additional characters like Sully and Nadine help create interesting dynamics for Drake to play off, much like Ratchet and Clanks' unique chemistry. If you end up enjoying yourself, consider going back and playing the rest of the Uncharted series, even if the first two games are a bit dated by today's gaming conventions.
While it may be a bit more systems-driven than your average R&C game, Obsidian's latest foray into sci-fi storytelling is sure to satiate the biggest of appetites for galactic tomfoolery. The game casts you as The Stranger, a blank slate of a character who's tasked with determining the fate of the Halcyon Space Colony and its starving citizens.
Your mission sees you journeying across and exploring eight planets that boast exotic locales, dangerous creatures, and a host of NPCs to befriend or betray. Characters that join your party can lend a hand in battle, give you special perks, and possess unique backstories you can unravel by completing sidequests.
Much like the R&C games, The Outer Worlds gives you a wide array of guns and science weapons to experiment with and cause mayhem. Every challenge in the game can be handled in various ways based on your preferred playstyle, allowing you to talk yourself out of a jam through dialogue options or brute force your way to victory.

If you're desperate for a new action-platformer like Ratchet & Clank but can't be bothered with remakes or sequels to existing franchises, Effie offers an original story focusing on new characters and a colorful fantasy-inspired setting.
You play as a young man named Galand on a quest to reclaim his youth after a witch curses him with old age. Armed with a magical shield, Galand sets out across the region of Oblena to liberate its cities and overcome the witch's monsters.
The game has a distinctly retro feel that's clearly meant to evoke memories of playing old school classics like R&C and Crash Bandicoot only with modern graphics and controls. It's a bit on the short side compared to other entries on this list but achieves a lot with its relatively small scope.

Marvel's Spider-Man
Admittedly the most dissimilar game on this list, some aspects of Marvel's Spider-Man may still resonate with fans of R&C, especially if you admire how Insomniac structures their stories. While it still falls prey to many of the superhero video game tropes we've come to expect, the game does a great job at paying homage to the original comics.
Peter Parker is a prime candidate for Insomniac's quippy dialogue and won't hesitate to spout one-liners as you web-swing around New York City. His boisterous personality is frequently juxtaposed by supporting characters like Yuri, an NYPD Captain with little patience for jokes.
The game's funniest moments are whenever Spider-Man is forced to engage with the larger-than-life personalities that make up his rogue's gallery of villains. Additionally, combat is modeled after the Batman Arkham series and offers plenty of room to experiment with Spider-Man's unique abilities and gadgets.

Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy
Crash Bandicoot is one of the many byproducts of the video game industry's obsession with mascot characters during the 1990s. While the rambunctious marsupial may not have the ability to communicate verbally like Ratchet, he can still convey a lot of information using facial expressions.
That being said, most of your time in N. Sane Trilogy will be spent traversing remastered platforming levels from the first three games in the series: Crash Bandicoot, Cortex Strikes Back, and Crash Bandicoot: Warped.
This is another Toys for Bob project and carries the same outstanding level of polish as Spyro Reignited Trilogy. The updated version also adds a ton of quality-of-life improvements such as unified checkpoints, a dedicated save system, and the ability to pause the game mid-level, which sounds like a crazy thing to type out in 2022.

Despite its obvious Super Mario 64 influence, A Hat In Time has a lot in common with the R&C series. Both feature cartoony graphics, characters with bold personalities, and fine-tuned 3D platforming controls.
In it, you play as an adorable girl who dons a top hat and explores the galaxy from the comfort of her space ship. One day, her adventure comes to a screeching halt when the Time Pieces fueling her ship are taken away and scattered on a nearby planet.
What ensues is an epic journey spanning multiple worlds with unique themes and a cast of over-the-top characters. While many of them start out as enemies, Hat Kid can usually win them over using her cute looks and charming personality.

Yooka-Laylee
Platforms: PC, PS4, Xbox One, Switch, Mac
To round things out, we've got one more action-platformer that incorporates some similar ideas as the Ratchet & Clank series. Inspired by the iconic Banjo Kazooie games, Yooka-Laylee is a modern interpretation of old school 3D platformers with vibrant cartoony graphics.
Similar to R&C, the game focuses on two characters who must work together to achieve their goals. Yooka is a green chameleon who can walk around, breathe fire, and curl into a ball, while Laylee is a small purple bat that can help Yooka fly and solve various puzzles.
The similarities between them and Ratchet and Clank aren't quite 1:1, but you can see where we're headed with this. If you're in the mood for a retro 3D platformer without any outdated controls or graphics, Yooka-Laylee will definitely help scratch that itch.

Lansing State Journal columnist Graham Couch gives his initial thoughts on Michigan State's 65-60 win over Michigan on Sunday in the Big Ten tournament final.
CHICAGO – When Kyle Ahrens hit the deck and grabbed his left ankle with 4:34 remaining in the first half, just after Michigan had pulled ahead, I thought that was it for Michigan State.
I was sure of it as the Wolverines pulled ahead by double digits early in the second half.
The Spartans had their excuse — a soul-kicking injury to a beloved teammate, who was already gritting it out through a back injury.
What I underestimated, as I have several times this season, is the completive fight and will within this MSU team — and simply how great it can be. I knew Matt McQuaid and Kyle Ahrens were thick as thieves. I didn't see coming the most inspired performance I've witnessed from McQuaid, who pointed toward the bench or toward Ahrens' parents or toward someone after each of his 3-pointers fell for a while — the first right after Ahrens' injury.
What a performance. It left Tom Izzo in tears before it was over — when the effort and grit was simply enough. If MSU had lost, by the end, it wouldn't have felt like defeat. Not after two earlier wins over the Wolverines and so much fight Sunday.
This Big Ten tournament game was worth MSU sticking around to play and will go down as one of the great games and moments in Spartans basketball history. So I'll shut up now. Well, not really. But a mea culpa: Never undersell MSU vs. Michigan.
This MSU team becomes the first to beat Michigan three times in one season — a decisive edge over its rival, a quality version of that rival. It'll perhaps come with a No. 1 seed. We'll find out shortly.
For McQuaid, a senior running short on time, this will be a performance he and we remember: 27 points, 7-for-13 on 3-pointers, one whenever MSU needed it.
For Cassius Winston, who a year ago struggled against Michigan, this was yet another afternoon of big buckets at key times and quintessential Winston assists, 11 of them.
With 2:01 to play, with MSU trailing 60-58, Izzo was in tears. After the Spartans tied it at 60 apiece, he couldn't control his emotions. I can only imagine how thrilled he was by his team's grit, at McQuaid's performance. I've never seen him like that, that late in an undecided game.
And then the rest of the game happened, and perhaps the worthiness of it all was made clear. This was a classic. But it came at a cost. That shouldn't be forgotten.
Ahrens could have landed awkwardly on his ankle next week in practice or in MSU's first NCAA tournament game. He could have hurt it anytime on the court. So, in that sense, it's irrational to connect what's likely to be a season-ending injury with a game the Spartans didn't need to play.
But the injury did happen. And Ahrens was already playing through a debilitating and painful back injury. And this game, this tournament, after 20 Big Ten regular season games, a Big Ten championship and two wins over Michigan in the last three weeks, only had a small chance of being truly worth it for the Spartans — if they won it, landed a No. 1 seed and that draw wound up being favorable.
The problem for the Spartans: The teams they played in the first two games just weren't good enough to send them home safely before Sunday. When Winston struggled early against Ohio State, Foster Loyer inexplicably stepped in and scored 14 points. MSU played Loyer 18 minutes against the Buckeyes. It's not like Izzo was pulling out all the stops to win.
This entire tournament, after a 20-game regular season, lacked some juice — until Sunday.
Ahrens wasn't going to sit out without a fight. He epitomizes the best of the Spartans' grit. MSU wasn't going to stop competing. This is a Big Ten championship team. Perhaps Ahrens should have been saved from himself this week. Still, it was a fluke, easy to second guess in hindsight. Easier to second guess when he's in tears laying on the court, clutching his ankle.
We just saw how Aaron Henry can lift MSU throughout the NCAA tournament. His defense on Michigan's Ignas Brazdeikis in the second half changed this game, when it looked like the Spartans might get run out of the building. His aggressive offensively was as relentless as I've seen. His explosiveness Sunday caught me off guard, and I've been watching him all season.
He didn't shoot it all that well, but he attacked and guarded for 35 minutes — as the best pure athlete on MSU's roster. That was a worth a ton.

Trying to find the best apartment in Arlington TX can be like searching for a needle in a haystack. Okay, so you've heard that one before, but you see, Arlington is a huge city. If you go about your search unprepared, you're likely not going to discover everything that the city has to offer you. You don't want to see all the apartments in person, but you certainly do want to get a good look at what Arlington, Texas has to offer renters.
To do that, you're not going to want to pass up the opportunity to perform an online search. You will want to be sure that you are thinking about what you want out of a place. You will need to keep those expectations in mind when you hit the streets to look at listings in person, too. There are all kinds of important factors to consider when you are apartment hunting.
Some of the apartment search tips that you are going to find are more general. Yet you have to realize that each person is looking for something a little different in an apartment. Each person also has a different budget, and that can have everything to do with what you end up finding when you search for the best places to live in Arlington.
It actually helps when you start with your personal budget. You know how much of an apartment you can afford, or you can easily figure it out by doing the math. If you have not yet done that, you need to take care of it before looking at listings. You're doing yourself a favor when you have a budget in mind and stick with it for sure.
There isn't going to be anything comfortable about living in an apartment you can't afford. You also want to think in terms of the neighborhood in which you live, too. You're not just looking for the best pad but the best place to live in general. You're calling Arlington home, but there are many different communities within such a large city.
You're eventually going to land on the best apartment in Arlington TX for you. You will know it when you find the right place, and you can then start talking to the landlord about signing a lease. You will have to go over that lease agreement first, however, as it's important to know all the details. You are accountable once you sign, and you're going to want to know that you've decided on the best place.
Where you call home in Arlington is totally up to you. There are certainly quite a few places that you're going to be able to choose from. While that may be the case, only one of them is going to be your next apartment. Choose wisely, and then you can start getting to know the city better. You are going to be starting the next stage of your life in Arlington, and you want to know what is next.

Random / Local NYC
Justin Tuck is diggin' Danny Dimes, reflects on Eli Manning's legacy | STAT Sports (Video)
Rob Lep
New York Giants champion Justin Tuck is diggin' Danny Dimes and also reflects on Eli Manning's legacy at the Tom Coughlin Gala.
Justin Tuck is a two-time Super Bowl Champion and New York sports legend. He spent the first nine seasons of his NFL career being coached by legendary New York Giants head coach Tom Coughlin.
Therefore, it's no surprise Tuck was in attendance for Coughlin's Annual Foundation Gala in NYC to support the man who gave him his NFL start.
"If I'm in town when this happens, I'll be here every year… coach Coughlin as a coach and man is a model of consistency."
Tuck and Coughlin were brilliant together. With Coughlin as his head coach, Tuck won two Super Bowl titles, helping lead the defense over Tom Brady, Bill Belichick, and the Patriots. They held Brady to just 31 points in two Super Sundays.
"He was a father figure… I'm not the man I am today standing here today without a lot of help from him."
The Patriots were enormous favorites going into Super Bowl 42, having gone undefeated 18-0 (setting an NFL record for regular-season wins) as well as defeating the Giants in both the preseason (27-20) and regular-season finale (38-35).
Brady threw for a then NFL record 50 touchdown passes, with 23 going to star wide receiver Randy Moss (also an NFL record).
With the Giants down 14-10, Manning led the Giants on the game-winning drive. Avoiding the sack on the iconic David Tyree catch and then throwing it to Plaxico Burress in the back left corner of the end zone for the game-winning score.
"It's a football game. We just tried not to make it bigger than that. We didn't make the moment bigger than it was. There wasn't pressure. We probably don't win that game 9 of 10, but that night, we played better football."
Much debate has been made about whether Manning deserves a place in Canton, Ohio when he officially hangs up the cleats. Despite his two Super Bowls, Manning for much of his career statistically has been a subpar quarterback.
Tuch takes a simple approach to the debate.
"First ballot Hall of Famer."
He went on.
"I dare you to find someone who's done it the right way as Eli has for 16 years. In this city. Everyone knows what I mean when I say that. This place can chew you up and spit you out. To play here and to win here on the biggest stage and do it the right way… if I'm an owner of a team and I get to have Eli Manning for 16 years, I'll take that bet every day all day."
Manning was benched for Daniel Jones before their Week 3 game versus the Tampa Bay buccaneers. Jones is 2-0 as an NFL starter. He's the first Giants rookie QB to start 2-0 since Phil Simms in 1979. Danny Kanell won his first two games as a starter in 1997 (second season).
In those two games, Jones has completed 46 of 67 passes (68.7%) for 561 yards, three touchdowns, and two interceptions. That's the highest total yardage by a Giants quarterbacks who began their career in the Super Bowl era, outperforming Danny Kanell's 418 yards in 1997.
Jones' 68.7 completion percentage is the highest by a Giants quarterback in his first two starts in the Super Bowl era.
"He proved why the Giants were so excited to get him at 6. It's only one game but he showed a lot of moxy. A lot of poise. (The) kid can throw the ball. Excited about what the future holds for this team."
Besides his strong play and running ability, Jones's nickname has been taking fans and media by storm.
Danny Dimes? Danny Darts? Duke of Durham? Prince Jones?
"His mom calls him Daniel so I'll call him Daniel."
To be honest with you, as long as the Giants keep winning football games, you can call him Danny "Savages in the Box" Jones and I wouldn't care.

Total U.S. production of liquefied petroleum gases – propane and butanes – increased to 2.1 million barrels per day (bpd) in 2016.
But according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), production of LP gas increased in all regions of the United States last year except on the West Coast, or in Petroleum Administration for Defense District (PADD) 5.
Unlike other regions, West Coast LP gas production has been on the decline since 2010. Refinery production in the PADD is down, as production totaled 80,000 bpd in 2016. That's 10,000 bpd less than in 2010.
An increase in production at natural gas processing plants has driven much of the nation's increase in LP gas production, which has nearly doubled since 2010. Production was close to 1.8 million bpd in 2016. In PADD 5, though, natural gas processing plant production was flat at about 34,000 bpd last year.
According to EIA, relatively low levels of in-region production and a lack of LP gas pipeline infrastructure have isolated the West Coast from the LP gas-related industrial growth that has occurred elsewhere in the U.S., especially along the Gulf Coast (PADD 3). As a result, PADD 5 increasingly relies on rail transport for its LP gas supply.
Although LP gas exports are up since 2010 and despite the West Coast being just 14 days away by tanker from major East Asian ports, only 6 percent of exports to those destinations derives from the West Coast, according to EIA. The Gulf Coast, which is 28 days away from East Asia, accounts for the rest of U.S. exports.
Asia is the top destination for U.S. LP gas exports, accounting for 44 percent of all volumes, EIA adds.
Still, despite its relatively small share of growing U.S. exports, LP gas export growth measured in absolute volumes from the West Coast to East Asian markets has drawn increasing supplies of Asia-bound LP gas by rail into the region, especially from Canada. New data shows that the West Coast received 46,000 bpd of LP gas by rail from Canada and other PADDs in 2016. That's up from 16,000 bpd in 2010.
At the same time, exports of LP gas from the West Coast rose by nearly 5,000 bpd in 2016 to more than 37,000 bpd. Product ultimately exported to Asia accounted for most of the growth.
According to EIA, an increased ability to transport LP gas by rail has allowed western Canadian producers, who can no longer ship LP gas by pipeline to the Midwest, to ship more LP gas to the West Coast, where it can be exported to overseas markets.

Here is new icon pack for gallery2. It derives from the work of Paul Armstrong. Every icon is in PNG format with a real Alpha channel, which render beautifully with any theme. However, IE has trouble with PNGs from CSS and the transparency looks wrong. The icons are best viewed in Firefox.
I have only tested thes icons under G2B3. They may not work with the changes in the CVS edition.
The icons are released under GPL, so feel free to redistribute them.
will test them tomorrow or so.
First, let me say, those icons look great!
After getting a lesson on tranparency and browsers, it would probably be best to just use GIFs. IE can't handle alpha channel tranparency only binary. Which you could create binary transparent PNGs, however, all GIF only uses binary transparency. Then it would work better across all browsers.
However, your account_settings.png appears to be corrupt. It's 52KB, doesn't have the correct PNG header and I'm unable to open it with Irfanview or The GIMP. I assume this is the format of which ever program you used to create these icons though. Maybe mentioning what program was used in the README.txt would be helpful or seeing if you can export the originals to a more common format like PSD in case others want to build off of your work.
The README.txt still refers to Paul's site and designs. I also noticed that you have icons.css and icons.css~. I assume icons.css~ is a temporary file created by your css editor.
I assume you're just following Paul's path and this is no cut on your or anyone, just a general observation. Why have any icons refer to any theme directly? Both yours and Paul's refer to the Matrix theme directly for 3 icons. I would think that an iconpack should have all the icons it needs and not need to rely on any theme.
For example, what if someone created their own theme, but wanted to use someone else's iconpack and also wanted a really trimmed down gallery install. So they removed the Matrix theme?
Great work! I like those icons a lot!
Thank you so much for your comments, suggestions, and ideas!
I have corrected several errors and the original post now links to an updated file.
Thanks again for your comments, suggestions, and kind words.
Is there possibly a set of icons in GIF format? I use IE and most of my visitors do the same!
Sure, I will work on it this evening. I will make a set with a white background for the partial transparency. If you want I will make one just for you with your background color in the partial transparency. Just tell my what the # code is and I will compile it for you.
I am working on a program that will take a whole group of png's and replace the alpha-channel with a solid background. If anyone know of any good documentation on the PNG file format I'd appreciate it.
Thanks KSturgis for the kind effort! Appreciate that.
Is it possible to have a set of icon with transparency to fit into all those colors? Thanks!
Here is an all gif version of the icon pack. This package will look best over a background that is white, or near white.
If gonna fool around with the icon pack on a dark background tommorow, I don't know how well it will work out, but it is worth a try.
This version is missing a capthcha icon, but only the administrator gets to see that icon, so I've put it on a low priority.
Love the icon pack. Just following the above thread and was wondering if there was any more progress on true transparent GIFs for your icon pack (for those still using IE - I know, I know, when will they learn ;). I've been flipping through deciding on PGTheme and the Grey Matter colour pack for my site but given that both are similarly dark, the icons aren't showing up quite right in IE.
KSturgis, I don't know about the program you use, but I know in PS and several other programs if you either turn off the background layer or select the background layer to be transparent when you save it as a GIF, then the background is truely transparent and not just transparent for certain colors.
nivekiam - Transparent GIFs only have 1 level of transparency. On or off. This means that imagery which doesn't have hard edges (drop shadows for instance) will have to contain some background colour in the gif for the transparency to look right. However, as KSturgis has released a PNG set people will be able to make transparent GIF versions for whatever colour they desire.
Is there a best "master" location in the gallery code (in each theme? higher up?) to insert the fix? Part of my confusion with the code (being fairly noob) is that I can rarely find the best or most efficient places to put overriding hack code. If you (or anyone else?) can point to the best location, I can try to figure out what of the various examples of code should go there.
The gallery code allows you to insert stuff in the head element, though I am not sure how to do this (haven't loked at that part yet). Inside themes it is very easy though; just add the suggested code into the head element.
shapiroja, RwD is on the right path. You'd edit theme.tpl of your theme where you can add a new link to a custom css file, or you could just add. There is no "master" place to make these changes for all themes as there was before beta 4 as now each theme can control all visual and layout aspects of G2.
This is very interesting indeed. The quick and dirty fix I do in The GIMP is indexing the png at the 255 colors... this is the dirty part of the fix.
Unfortunate thing though is that the person making this didn't also suport css included images... but I believe you can "easily" fix that with css and some filter.
I am try to add an icon to the paul set How to you do it??
paulbearne, is your question related to the KSIconPack that this topic is about or is it about the Paul Armstrong icon pack? If it's about the Paul Armstrong icon pack, please start a new topic and give more explaination of what you want.
As am geting an error with winzip on the download above!!
Either way please start a new topic, your question isn't on topic to this thread and if someone else went looking for it they wouldn't find it. Be specific in your subject to about a new icon for RSS feeds.
just lemme report that the mentioned pngfix for IE does _not_ work flawlessly..
although they look nice in FF.
but it doesn't seem to open in WinZip or AlphaZip. I'm using Windows XP. Will these icons extract to my Win XP hard drive?
Then open the file with winzip.
Extract into your gallery2 directory.
Thanks for your help mindless now I could update my Gallery with these great icons!
any plans for updated ones that include RSS and any 2.1 changes?
any interest in adding your iconpack to CVS? if so, update it for 2.1 and we can get it in.
Oh, and the link above to the new icons is not working.
KSIcons is in current svn / nightly snapshot.
I just tried downloading this icons pack and IE couldn't find it.
don't worry, if you have 2.2-RC-1 then you already have it.. visit Site Admin / Icons and you'll see KSIcons.


Two Maltese Boxers from I & J Amateur Boxing Club Mosta, Roland Sammut and Louanna Marmara, have just returned to Malta from a 9 day training camp in South London. They were hosted and coached by Mr George Brown, head coach at Crawley Amateur Boxing Club. Besides having the opportunity to train and spar with foreign boxers and implement new training ideas, they made new friends through their sporting discipline, which is what amateur boxing is all about.

Spike in cases of ethical and academic breaches at student judicial affairs office
USC students say the lack of transparency and timeliness throughout the lengthy SJACS disciplinary process has hurt their mental health.

By Chloe Rose Lewis
USC's system for handling student disciplinary actions has been criticized for years for lack of transparency and timeliness. Now, more than a year into an unprecedented online learning environment forced by a global pandemic, the Student Judicial Affairs and Community Standards (SJACS) Office is inundated with high numbers of reports of cheating and other academic integrity violations.
A USC spokeswoman, on behalf of Student Affairs, told Annenberg Media that the remote testing environment beginning in March 2020 resulted in dramatically higher numbers of reported academic integrity cases, which were more difficult and time-consuming to evaluate due to the un-proctored nature of Zoom and difficulty collecting evidence.
The SJACS office found a 115% increase in reported academic integrity violations from Fall 2019 to Fall 2020. Reports from the partially online Spring 2020 semester increased by 15% compared with Spring 2019 and involved 14% more students. In the past three academic years, SJACS dealt with more than 1,000 cases annually, Student Affairs told Annenberg Media. The university did not share the figures from the Spring 2021 semester.
"The remote testing environment necessitated by the pandemic resulted in a higher volume of academic integrity cases and also made it more time-consuming to evaluate those cases because additional evidence must be gathered and reviewed given that proctors have not been physically present during exam administrations," said the spokeswoman.
As a result, USC is "hiring and adding resources to increase capacity" at SJACS, the spokeswoman said. There also has been an effort over the last several months to establish a process to review the university's student conduct system, she added.
The surge in academic integrity violations — reported here for the first time — emerged as students are taking to Reddit to criticize the office for its lengthy process and handling of cases, which they say disregards students' mental health. Students claim that delays in cases have caused increased anxiety, depression and other mental health issues.
Prior to the pandemic, SJACS was already receiving complaints from USC students about its handling of cases. Annenberg Media spoke with eight current and former students who detailed what they called a lack of respect and responsiveness and cases that stretched as long as one year. The students declined to be named out of concern that their comments would affect the status of their SJACS cases or to protect their own privacy. Annenberg Media presented each of the claims below to USC for comment, and in each case, Student Affairs declined to comment, citing student privacy laws.
One student posted on Reddit about his own experience with SJACS, which he said lasted seven months.
"My mental health reached the lowest it had ever been," the student with the Reddit username pomorand19, wrote in a statement to Annenberg Media. "I was constantly anxious, worried, down and had trouble even getting out of bed some days. [They] really don't care if you develop depression, trauma or are *this* close to committing self-harm."
He said he was initially notified of allegations of academic misconduct in May 2020 and was found innocent in January 2021. The student told Annenberg Media that he was also suffering from a number of personal tragedies during his case— deaths and illness in his family, and his mother was furloughed from work. He claimed that the professor and SJACS officer involved in the case offered no support or clarity on the case.
Student Affairs, through the spokeswoman, said there are resources available for anyone struggling. "If a student expresses concern about the length of the process impacting their mental health, SJACS staff will connect the student with other departments on campus that can provide supportive resources," she said.
As far as the length of time for cases to be resolved, the spokeswoman commenting for Student Affairs said it is difficult to predict the duration of a typical case since each report is unique. Factors that make the process longer include the availability of students and witnesses to meet, the volume of information to review and consider and the number of students or reporting parties involved in the particular circumstance. The school is "moving cases forward as quickly as possible," the spokeswoman said.
"Although the university recognizes that lengthier reviews can be distressing to students, academic integrity is foundational in an institution of higher learning and preserving a system of accountability is an important priority that benefits all members of our community," she told Annenberg Media.
Still, the complaints are soaring online as students share stories of their suffering.
In another interview, a rising junior said that she waited a year for a follow-up from SJACS after initially being notified. She believes that SJACS' lack of timeliness and responsiveness throughout the process is contradictory to the rules they impose on students. More than one year after the case began, she said she was ultimately notified of the case sanctions during finals week and had no choice but to manage the sanctions concurrently with her final exams.
Processes for SJACS proceedings are explained on its website and include a meeting between the accused student and a judicial officer, review of the case by the office, determination of the student's sanctions, and, in some cases, an appeal by the student. The spokeswoman noted that students "are highly encouraged" to provide their perspective by participating in the process and can find information about it in Part B of the Student Handbook.
Incident reports can be filed by faculty and staff up to one year after the alleged incident, and the time frame can be extended under special circumstances, according to the website. Once a student is notified of the allegation, they have five business days to respond before they may be subject to further sanctioning or Summary Administrative Review, where they can dispute the facts and sanctions.
A rising sophomore who goes by the Reddit username Tricky-Top-7595 commented on another user's post on May 19, "I literally feel like I'm going to lose everything," adding that the situation felt hopeless. In an interview with Annenberg Media, the student said that for the first week after she was notified she barely ate or slept and emailed her professor four times with no response. She said she was notified of the accusation by her professor in mid-May, she said awaited a follow-up email from SJACS for nearly a month and said her advisor recommended re-enrolling in the class again over the summer should sanctions ultimately result in an F on her transcript.
"What's worse is not even knowing… now I have to spend $1,400 on a summer class just in case," she said. "I just feel dread."
SJACS is not only being criticized by students.
The national professional advisor to a social fraternity said that USC's process for student judicial cases was unlike anything they had seen at any of the other 200 universities they interact with. The advisor, who declined to be named to be able to speak candidly, said they had never witnessed such aggression from judicial affairs officers.
"The way SJACS officers showed up in meetings was unprofessional and outside of their bounds," the advisor told Annenberg Media. "They were rarely prepared for the meeting at hand, did not follow their prescribed processes, and consistently demeaned the students they were working with.The process was not student-focused, nor did the adjudication match the allegations."
The USC spokeswoman for Student Affairs declined to comment on this and the other specific allegations reported in this story.
The president of a separate social fraternity described an ongoing SJACS case involving an accusation of hosting a chapter-sponsored event at the chapter house.
The president, who requested anonymity, said that SJACS officials had initially reached out to the fraternity's former president, who is no longer in that role. He speculated that SJACS does not keep updated records on student organizations and called the officials working for the office unprepared. He denied the accusation about the event and told Annenberg Media that it was unrelated to the fraternity's chapter.
In the disciplinary process, the president said he requested body-camera footage of the incident but SJACS did not respond or provide the requested footage.
"I feel that SJACS needs to reevaluate the way that they handle cases pertaining to student organizations and individuals with the respect that they deserve," the president told Annenberg Media via email. "The lack of a timely response and failure to keep updated records exemplifies the office's inadequacy to do its job and changes must be made to protect student rights and to safeguard the university from another avoidable scandal."
The same student said that he was also accused of violating COVID-19 protocols and was banned from campus as a result. In an effort to prove his innocence, he said that he appealed to SJACS and provided them with his internet browsing history from the evening of the accusation, which showed that he had been studying alone. In the email to Annenberg Media, he said that SJACS did not acknowledge the evidence and that he believes it was not taken into consideration during his case.
The former president of another social fraternity said he endured an eight-month case due to an accusation of COVID-19 protocol violations and said he felt disrespected throughout the process.
SJACS alleged that the violation happened when a memorial service later escalated into a party at an off-campus house. The former president said that when he tried to explain that the memorial itself was socially distanced, masked and following proper protocol, he said he was told by an SJACS officer that what happened later that night proved that the fraternity "did not care for the friend that had died" and that instead of honoring his friend's life he was "putting everyone else's life in jeopardy."
"Even if you work for a high office in the school and you have power over the students and their futures, there should be some sense of compassion in the conversations and I don't think that's the case right now," he told Annenberg Media.
He expressed further concern regarding overall fairness in the SJACS system, claiming that he had reached out multiple times over a period of approximately two months in an attempt to determine where the case stood. When he did not receive a response, he said he reached out to USC's Student Affairs Leadership Team to see if they had any updates.
After his inquiry, he said that SJACS called him into the office and began bringing up unrelated accusations against the fraternity from long before the memorial service. He believes SJACS was upset that he had gone to others outside of the office and felt that the introduction of old accusations was vindictive.
He said that he later filed a report to the Office of Professionalism and Ethics about his concerns that SJACS was handling the case in a biased and unprofessional way, but his report was rejected.
When he approached SJACS regarding the length of the process, he said that he was told it was due to the small size of the office and that they want the same officers to handle all cases to maintain uniformity and responsibility. There are currently eight staff members working in the office, according to the SJACS website.
Change may be on the horizon as USG has begun initiating progress in meetings with SJACS to discuss students' grievances and working to find solutions.
Donna Budar-Turner, director of SJACS, recently met with USG representatives to discuss students' concerns, said Annie Nguyen, USG committee chair of academic affairs.
"If we're hearing about students who have negative experiences with SJACS, we really want to find out why and how we can develop solutions with SJACS, hopefully in a collaborative effort," said Nguyen.
USG also met with Grace Shan, author of the Daily Trojan article "It's time to put SJACS on trial" to learn more about students' concerns. Though Nguyen says USG has a good understanding of where the issues lie, she encourages students to submit complaints directly through the "USG Listens" forum. Nguyen acknowledged students' sentiments and said USG's main goal is to increase transparency between the student body and both USG and SJACS.
The USC spokeswoman outlined the ongoing review of SJACS policies, noting that Provost Charles F. Zukoski has asked Senior Vice President Beong-Soo Kim, Vice President for Student Affairs Winston Crisp, and Vice Provost for Academic Programs Andrew Stott "to lead a comprehensive evaluation of the policies, offices, and processes used by the university to promote responsible behavior by students and hold them accountable to USC's community standards of behavior."

Jonathan Bartley's visit to York
Published 7th November 2016
It was an invaluable experience to be shown around the construction of upgrades to the Foss Barrier in St George's Fields and even more so to bring this to the attention of our hip Co-Leader, Jonathan Bartley last Thursday in York. Accompanied by the Lord Mayor and Sheriff of York, the former especially keen to question the managers of the project in his usual role as Cllr for Fishergate Ward on behalf of his affected constituents, the tour was conducted by Area Manager Mark Scott and his colleague Tony Andryszewski, (Ouse & Foss Recovery Manager) . Jonathan joined your other Green Group ward councillors Denise Craghill (Guidhall) and Andy D'Agorn (Fishergate), local party Co-Vice Chair Tom Franklin and myself around the site (all donned in the ubiquitous Hi-Viz, boots & hard hats which were evidently not just for show since yours truly, unforgivably donned in heels, fell ungracefully out of the Portakabin), we were fascinated to learn the following key points:
If another, equally unprecedented flood were to occur now, the work done so far on the barrier would withstand it – great news!
Maximum flood levels are rising, at a rate of 9mm/year, so the upgrades were the right decision and would've been absolutely necessary even without last year's floods.
All of York's flood defences- walls etc. will eventually need to be raised to address this reality which is down to climate change and upstream issues such as land-use, deforestation & farming processes. The government need to accept this, tackle it.
If we made St George's Fields car park into a marina (which the York Green Party believe would encourage sustainable tourism and provide affordable accommodation) this would alleviate the consequences of Foss river flooding, even though as an end in itself would still be a small contribution.
Other surrounding towns, Selby, Boroughbridge, Cawood deserve not to be overlooked and must be allocated funding to deal with their own flooding risks. York has a lot of media attention but it is by no means the only place affected.
A visual exhibition by the Environment Agency with how they'll be spending the £45 million on a) immediate plans, b) the 5 year projects and c) the 20 year+ strategy will be available for everyone to visit, on 25-26th November in the Hotel 53, 53 Piccadilly, York YO1 9PL.
Earlier in the day, Jonathan fervently highlighted these issues to members of the media at a special lunchtime gathering attended by members of the anti-Fracking movements – John Cossham, hopeful Green Party candidate for Hull Road ward and Kit from Frack-Free York, Adela, Sue and Steve from Ryedale & Richard from Frack-Free East Yorkshire – at which everyone agreed a clear connection between Fracking stands glowering at one end of the destructive-climate-changing spectrum just as flooding stands at the other. Whilst many around the table held sacred that climate change is the unarguable-argument, the reality of Tory et al. disregard for this fact requires that other major arguments – e.g. the increased infrastructure destruction & pollution caused by fracking must be the current arguments used to fight against it. It is predicted up to 60 million extra HGV journeys would need to be made during the lifetime of a fracking well, all of them due to pass southwards around York and further on to Leeds clogging up our roads and polluting our air.
At the end of the day Jonathan made his way on the 66 big pink bus to York University to make his headline address to the CND and York University Greens societies, buoyed on by the excellent turn out of environmentally and socially conscious young people who challenged and engaged us on issues from nuclear disarmament to green economics, local campaigns and beyond. All fuelled by gorgeously unique 'Real Junk Food', (you can enjoy a similar Pay-As-You-Feel meal Wednesday lunchtimes at Tang Hall Community Centre, see Facebook or www.yourcafe.co.uk) Jonathan, students and Green Party members enjoyed an intimate evening reception where no topic of discussion was off the table.

Approximately 50 bands have been recorded in emission from glyoxal excited with the 4765, 4880, 4965, 5017, and 5145 Å lines of an argon ion laser. Most of the stronger bands are readily assigned to the 1Au–1Ag (π*–n) and 3Au–1Ag (π*–n) systems. Seven bands are tentatively assigned to a new band system, probably a second singlet π*–n system. One Raman band has been observed. The new measurements give ν1″ = 2843 cm−1, ν2″ = 1745 cm−1, and ν4″ = 1065 cm−1.
