AFSCME 1733, the Memphis union local that won the 1968 sanitation strike for its 1,300 members, marches proud and strong in Memphis fifty years later, April 4, in memory of Dr. M.L. King Jr.
Memphis, Tenn., April 4 — Thousands of people from far and wide, including worker delegations, gathered here on the 50th anniversary of the heroic Memphis sanitation workers strike and the assassination of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Wearing their union T-shirts, NAACP jackets or other identifying organizational garb, they filled huge halls to standing room only and marched with today's American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees Local 1733 sanitation workers to a rally next to the Mason Temple. UNITE HERE brought at least 2,000 members, travelling to Memphis on 41 charter buses.
Thousands gathered for more speeches and singing outside the Lorraine Motel, where King was killed by a single bullet. The Lorraine and nearby buildings how house the National Civil Rights Museum, with an extraordinary collection of photos, documents, videos, oral histories and related items. On display is a sanitation truck like the one that crushed to death workers Echol Cole and Robert Walker, sparking the 1968 strike.
Many present were older people who had participated in marches and voter registration drives, faced police dogs and water cannons, or been fired from their jobs or evicted from their homes. Everywhere were families with teenagers and small children. Young adults, now part of #BlackLivesMatter and movements against police killings, state violence, gentrification, low-wages, poverty and white supremacy, came to April 2-3 training sessions. These were designed to transfer organizational skills and knowledge of previous civil rights struggles to today's activists.
AFSCME Memphis sanitation workers broke open the fight for public sector employees to belong to a union. In 1968, they used their power to withhold their labor as a tool to win collective bargaining rights and hold onto those rights.
Dr. King's support of the sanitation workers' strike was also key to the Poor People's Campaign that he launched earlier in 1968, intending to bring the struggle against economic inequality and systemic poverty to Washington, D.C. King coupled this action with his denunciation of the U.S. war on Vietnam, declaring the U.S. government to be "the greatest purveyor of violence in the world." He made the economic link clear by saying "the bombs dropped on Vietnam explode" in the nation's communities of poor and working people.
From a new Poor People's campaign to the April 14-15 national "End U.S. Wars at Home and Abroad" rallies — in the strikes and walkouts by public education teachers and staff in West Virginia, New Jersey, Kentucky, Oklahoma and Arizona — the resistance embodied in the Memphis sanitation workers and in Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. lives on!


With his new graphic poster, San Francisco, CA-based industrial designer Joey Roth finds a new way to talk about his two-pronged tactic of "giving form to objects and then clearing a path for them to enter the world." The simple diagram, originally appearing in the hustler-themed first issue of 48 Hour Magazine, breaks down three archetypes—charlatan, martyr, and hustler—according to design and marketing efforts, or what Roth calls "work" and "talk." Following positive responses to its publication in the magazine, Roth enlisted San Francisco print shop Dependable Letterpress to reproduce the graphic in a limited run.
Printed on soft, fabric-like #32 Lettra stock, the clean lines stand out in crisp relief against the paper and a half-inch margin makes it easy to frame for an executive office-appropriate bit of irreverent motivation.
A limited edition of 1,000 prints, the hand-signed and numbered posters sell from Roth's site for $25 each.

President Akufo-Addo commissions Ekumfi fruits processing factory
by The Ghana HIT August 24, 2020
written by The Ghana HIT August 24, 2020
President Akufo-Addo on Friday 21st Aug 2020 commissioned the Ekumfi Fruits and Juices Factory a project which is under an initiative called One-District-One-Factory. During the commissioning, the president noted that the factory was fully owned by Ghana and that it was one of the best and most modern factories in the country.
According to Akufo-Addo: "A total investment of $15 million, of which $10 million was a facility from Ghana Exim Bank, has been made. Presently, the production capacity of the factory is ten tonnes of processed juice per hour, utilizing some ten thousand fruits per hour. This means that this factory requires four acres of pineapple fruits to be harvested for processing every hour.
"Nearly, three years down the line, we have confounded the doubting Thomases, and I am very happy to be back here in Ekumfi, and, indeed, very proud to commission the Ekumfi Fruit and Juices Factory. As we can all see, this project has been well-planned and well-thought-through, with the raw materials needed for the successful implementation of this project already present, and an out-grower scheme in place.
"The Ekumfi Fruits and Juices Factory is yet another example of the Government's determination to promote the industrial transformation of our country. The government will continue to partner the private sector to establish similar modern factories, and which would be globally competitive, and take advantage of the African Continental Free Trade Area, which will begin trading on 1st January next year."
The president added that the factory was geared towards creating employment for the youth in the rural areas. He added that more districts were in line to benefit from his projects. After the commissioning of the factory, the President proceeded to inspect the construction of a landing beach in the Gomoa West District. The president has been insisting that his administration has done more than that of his competitor and former president John Mahama.

If you read my blog often you know how much I love zoos. Animal Kingdom is like a big zoo but the main attraction now seems to be the Avatar ride. It's new and its reputation has grown. Early on we began trying to figure out how to fit it into our day but as Touring.com indicated there was never a wait time less than two hours. And Fastpasses--gobbled up long ago.
Still my husband and son would not be denied. So when we got through the gate as the park opened the two hustled off to the Avatar ride. By the time they got there the line wait was already two and a half hours. The rest of us set off for the safari ride which used to be the big ride in AK.
The kids were duly impressed with the safari ride although it was a lot bumpier than I remember. Some of the animals came up really close to the jeep we were in. This ride is very much like the real safari we were on except that the more dangerous animals are in exhibits that have a large "moat" to keep them away from the jeeps full of people although from the jeep you can't tell that anything separates you from those lions sunning themselves.
We enjoyed It's Tough To Be A Bug on a Fastpass. The 3-D is fun as are all the other effects that are tossed in. I think even our 12 y/o was impressed.
Throughout the morning the guys kept us updated on their progress in line. As they got nearer, there was a lot to see of the Pandora landscape--none of which Bob would recognize since he hadn't seen the movie.
I ended up at the petting zoo with two of the kids while the older ones went on the Primeval Whirl. When we were done petting goats (the sheep couldn't be coaxed out into the petting area) we explored the nature center there and got to meet Rafiki.
It was nearing noon and there was a nice quiet area near the Petting Zoo with tables and benches. Since the two Avatar guys were just off the ride, I suggested we all meet there for lunch. It took a while to gather together but it was a nice lunch and everyone really enjoyed the Subways.
We mostly explored Dinoland, played in the playground area, dug for bones, and rode the Primeval Whirl once or twice again as well as the Triceratop Spin (a lot like the Dumbo ride). We had a Fastpass for the Dinosaur ride and four people got to ride twice since Bob had gotten the eight passes and not everyone could go.
Dinner was at the Rainforest Restaurant which is really not in the park but just outside it. You have to be sure you have your passes with you to reenter although there is no security to go through a second time. I think we all enjoyed our meals. I know I enjoyed my fish and chips. The kids loved seeing it storm inside a few times and watched the animals come alive.
After dinner Bob had Fastpasses for Expedition Everest. During dinner our 12 y/o grandson explained in detail, twice, every twist and turn and backwards movement. He'd experienced the whole ride over and over on YouTube. He still didn't convince me. The ones who didn't ride a second time came with me and we found seats for the Rivers of Light show.
It was a little difficult for them to find us but they did and we were all together as the program started. I think we all enjoyed it as much as we had the Epcot fireworks even though there were no fireworks. Fountains of colorful water danced from large floating lotus flowers and several lighted floats that were animals weaved between them. The music was soothing and beautiful and the tower of flames toward the end added a little more excitement.
As we filed out, Bob was reminded that he'd promised ice cream bars since we didn't want to fill up on desserts before the roller coaster ride on Everest. We got the bars and began a leisurely walk toward the entrance of the park and our car. Mom and Dad decided to take the kids into one of the souvenir shops and let them pick out a souvenir. They were ecstatic! It was a big decision and took a while but Bob and I sat outside and enjoyed the night, the gentle breeze and reminisced about the day.
Oh, the Avatar ride? He said he wouldn't wait three hours again to ride it but it was interesting.

Sheffield Wednesday: Why Carlos Carvalhal is wary of 'dangerous' Nottingham Forest
Carlos Carvalhal
Dom Howson
Published: 06:10 Friday 17 February 2017
Wednesday boss Carlos Carvalhal has warned his players to expect a Nottingham Forest backlash ahead of their trip to the City Ground.
Forest, under the stewardship of interim boss Gary Brazil, have slipped to 17th in the standings following back-to-back away defeats at Norwich City and Fulham.
But Forest are strong in their own backyard and will be searching for a fourth straight home win when they entertain Carvalhal's promotion hopefuls tomorrow.
For our Owls news and opinion on twitter follow here
Brazil's side revamped their forward line before the January transfer window closed, bringing in Ross McCormack on loan from Aston Villa and Bolton Wanderers attacker Zach Clough.
Carvalhal, who will be without the services of centre-back Tom Lees (knee) again, said: "Forest have a good squad. It will be a tough game.
"They are not an easy team to play against and have won their last three home matches.
"They are much better now with the new players than in the past. We know it is one of the more dangerous games this month but I think we will be ready for it."
For more news from Hillsborough click here
Wednesday triumphed 3-0 at the City Ground last year, producing one of their best away performances of Carvalhal's reign.
"We played well that day but it will be a different game this time," he said. "I think they are better this season.
"Forest are in a position which is not comfortable. They are not in danger of the last positions but it is not comfortable and these teams are all the time dangerous as they are fighting for their lives.
"We expect that they will fight a lot. They will try to press but it is nothing that we haven't seen before."
Gianfranco Zola favourite to be next Sheffield Wednesday manager, Leeds United and Kalvin Phillips negotiate new contract, Derby County are hopeful of bringing Chelsea starlet Ethan Ampadu in on loan - and the rest of Wednesday's Championship rumours
With Wednesday having won nine of their last 14 outings, Carvalhal is confident the team can pick up another positive result.

GothenburgSweden
For most people thinking about travelling to Scandinavia, the images that come to mind are likely to involve Vikings, frozen northern vistas, rugged coastlines and the Aurora Borealis — with maybe the odd singing snowman or princess thrown in for fun.
But Scandinavia is not only about the region's impressive natural wonders like the Northern Lights and the fjords.
It's not even all about snowmen and princesses — the region is also widely recognised for its incredibly modern and innovative capital cities, each of them more green, sustainable and highly advanced than the other.
Many visitors to Sweden, for instance, often end up spending the majority of their time taking in the endless blend of classical and modern beauty in Stockholm.
From its ancient cathedral to its incredibly modern metro, from the gorgeous Old Town to the cutting-edge, Michelin-starred restaurants that proliferate like weeds.
But if you visit Sweden, it's well worth the trip to get out of the capital and get yourself down to Gothenburg, Sweden for a few days.
Located on the western coast of the country overlooking the Kattegat—the arm of the North Sea separating Denmark from Sweden—Gothenburg is a historic shipping centre that has figured heavily in the economic success of Sweden from its very earliest days.
Today, it's home to a number of international corporations, a pair of world-class universities, a vibrant restaurant and bohemian cafe scene, a kicking nightlife and microbrewery culture, as well as a great music scene.
Not to mention that the city is stunningly beautiful in its own right, both the man-made structures as well as the natural beauty of the surrounding area.
Nonetheless, Gothenburg is often treated like that distant second cousin you rarely see, despite it being Sweden's second-largest city and the fifth-largest city in all of the Nordic countries.
Is Gothenburg better than Stockholm?
It kind of depends on what you're after, although in truth, not many people would be likely to make that claim. There certainly isn't any kind of real "Gothenburg vs. Stockholm," Biggie vs. Tupac-style beef or anything like that going on.
Nonetheless, far from being a place to be passed by, Gothenburg is in fact a vibrant, unique and beautiful city in its own right, and well worth a trip.
Visiting Gothenburg: Overview
So where is Gothenburg, and how big is it? The city overlooks the western reaches of Sweden's coast on the North Sea, the arm of the ocean called Kattegat, and the Gothenburg population is some 570,000 residents in the city proper, and 1 million in the metro area.
Even getting there is pleasant, as Gothenburg to Stockholm and vice versa is a lovely trip across the heart of southern Sweden — you can zip over in about 3 hours if traveling by express train, or drive in about 4.5 hours.
Gothenburg Airport is serviced by several daily direct flights from London and numerous other European cities, clocking in at just under two hours from Heathrow and often ridiculously cheap depending on the season.
A recent random search turned up London to Gothenburg return tickets that were less than £35 ($45) even on short notice. You can also fly to Gothenburg Airport from Stockholm direct in less than an hour.
Once you arrive in Gothenburg, you'll find yourself in a delightful, easily walkable, historic city, home to top-ranked museums, generous green spaces and parks and a massive botanical garden.
Plus, the famous hipster hood of Haga with its 19th-century cobblestone streets, endless coffee shops, and much more.
Gothenburg is a unique blend of the largest port in Scandinavia, modern Scandinavian architecture, historic city streets laid out in meticulous 17th-century planning style and a pair of world-class universities.
And all of this is situated in a gorgeous setting along the Göta River where it opens up to the Kattegat.
With so much going on in such a compact space, there's certainly no shortage of things to do in Gothenburg proper.
That doesn't even take into account the rugged beauty of the granite islands dotting the outer reaches of the Gothenburg archipelago where the city sits on the Göta River, including the car-free southern islands.
Add to that the fact that the city of Gothenburg boasts some of the cleanest air and streets of any Scandinavian metropolis—or any city in the world for that matter—due to its green and efficient tram system and all-electric bus fleet.
It's easy to see why savvy travellers make sure to include a trip to the Gothenburg region in their plans when they come to Sweden.
The question of how many days do you need to see Gothenburg is of course dependent on the rest of your travel plans, and what you like to see and do when you travel.
But even with just a cursory glance, it quickly becomes clear that you'll want to spend at least a few days in Gothenburg city proper, and perhaps that much time in the surrounding area as well.
Here's more on why visiting Gothenburg has something for everyone!
A social city by the seaside
Gothenburg is the biggest port in Sweden, and as such it has a long history of shipping and manufacturing. That is perhaps why there is such a strong working-class, unpretentious vibe here.
But make no mistake: Gothenburg does just fine for money. As a hub for international shipping, home to the Volvo corporation as well as pharmaceutical giant AstraZeneca and myriad other businesses in a well-to-do country like Sweden, Gothenburg is by no means economically deprived.
And Gothenburg has the kinds of facilities and amenities upper-middle class tech and business people come to expect: you'll find six Michelin-starred restaurants in Gothenburg — an impressive number anywhere, but especially in a smaller city like Gothenburg.
There is also a ton of culture in the form of world-class museums like the Museum of Gothenburg, a great art museum, a Volvo museum and an impressive maritime museum as well as high art with a never-ending supply of concerts, theatre and more.
While Stockholm soars in sophistication, showing off its glittering and innovative architectural jewels as well as the wealth and cosmopolitan glamour that comes with being the capital city of one of the most progressive, ecological and socially-conscious nations in the world.
Gothenburg, by contrast, is unafraid of coming off as a little more down-to-earth, exuding a more neighbourly vibe.
In fact, Gothenburg was recently voted the most sociable city in the world in a study that rated 39 cities on criteria like openness, how often people socialise, and their "propensity to party." To visit Gothenburg is to say goodbye to the stereotype of the cold, aloof Scandinavian!
That social label highlights the youthfulness and vibrancy of Gothenburg. It's home to a pair of world-class universities, a great cafe culture, awesome music scene, and a microbrewery culture that is quickly gaining the notice of beer fiends around the world.
Gothenburg is also home to the Gothenburg Film Festival, the largest film festival in Scandinavia, and plays host to the Gothia Cup, the largest youth football tournament in the entire world.
The city's friendliness and youthful vibe really come to the fore in the summertime when a seemingly endless run of concert festivals featuring all types of music roll in to town.
Listeners can soak up the stunning beauty of the city, the river and the coastline while enjoying the tunes, including an annual visit from the prestigious Way Out West Festival.
But Gothenburg wasn't always such a success for Sweden — control of the city was for centuries a bone of contention among not only the Scandinavian nations, but also the English, Scottish and even the Dutch!
The history of Gothenburg
While Stockholm's founding on the eastern coast of Sweden on the Baltic Sea offered the young nation's traders easy access to cities and settlements in Germany, Poland, Finland, the Baltic states and Russia, their efforts to make an impact on markets to their west were hampered by geography.
Much of the time they were also hindered by politics.
The need for westbound ships setting out from Stockholm to swing around the southern coast of Sweden and pass through the narrow Oresund between Copenhagen and Malmo before reaching the North Sea.
And beyond that, England, Scotland and other nations put a serious damper on the potential for trade for Swedish merchants — especially given the tumultuous state of international affairs.
Given the near-constant series of ongoing wars and shifting alliances among the trio of Scandinavian nations throughout the Middle Ages and the early modern era, ship captains and traders couldn't always assume that they would be permitted to skirt the Danish coast so closely.
So establishing a port city further north on the western coast of Sweden was a project that got the continual attention of Sweden's leaders throughout the nation's history. Starting in the earliest part of the 1600s Swedish monarchs made valiant efforts to gain a foothold in what is now Gothenburg.
In fact, the first church to be built in Gothenburg was completed in 1603, but it was destroyed shortly after in 1611 by invading Danish armies.
At the time of Gothenburg's founding, the city was built on a small strip of land that was considered part of Sweden's territory. But trapped as it was between land claimed by the Danes to the south and Norway to the north, it took several efforts to get a real live city up and running.
The neighbouring powers were less than enthusiastic about a Swedish stronghold on the western coast overlooking Kattegat, the sea between Sweden and Denmark's Jutland, and they hindered Sweden's efforts at every turn.
At long last however, Gothenburg was officially and successfully founded in 1621 by King Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden. But although the Swedish monarchy can claim to have created the city, from the very founding of Gothenburg it has been a truly international place.
King Adolphus brought in Dutch engineers and planners to help design and build the city, as they had the expertise needed to create a city from the ground up on such swampy, marshy terrain.
The Dutch engineers, having built Amsterdam, Jakarta, and Manhattan on similar landscapes, knew how to drain the swamps and build canals in such a way that the structures would be protected and people would still be able to navigate the city streets efficiently.
But fast forward a few decades and suddenly descendants of those former hired-gun Dutch engineers were sitting on the city council and largely calling the shots for the nascent port, along with powerful English and German traders who were also involved in city planning.
Even with such an international make-up, during this period it was really the Dutch who came to the fore when it came to controlling the city.
They were so powerful in fact that they managed to push through laws to run Gothenburg in alignment with Dutch town laws, and nearly succeeded in having Dutch declared the city's official language in the first half of the 17th century.
However, the Swedes apparently didn't mind biding their time, and by the mid 17th century the last Dutch city councilman had died off and the Swedes gained more control of the destiny of Gothenburg, although the Swedish still weren't alone in wielding power over what was ostensibly their city.
That's because a bloc of Scottish businessmen and traders was also heavily influential in the early work of carving out Gothenburg from the western marshes.
The influence of one of them, William Chalmers, can still be seen today in the form of Gothenburg's Chalmers University of Technology, which grew out of a bequest granted by Chalmers, the son of a Scottish immigrant.
The city of Gothenburg was also naturally of huge importance to the Swedish fishing industry, as it still is today. And Gothenburg also quickly became a player in other sectors as well.
Starting in 1731, ships setting out from Gothenburg under the aegis of the Swedish India Tea Company traveled far and wide, including highly-successful trading expeditions as far as China and other Far East nations.
But fishing and trade aren't the only things ships sailing from the harbour of Gothenburg engaged in over the centuries.
As emigration to North America grew in Sweden and other countries, Gothenburg played a vital role in sending Swedes off to make their way in the wild new country on the other side of the Atlantic.
So successful were Gothenburg's efforts to help emigres make the passage that there is to this day a town named after it, Gothenburg, Nebraska.
To visit Gothenburg in that far-off U.S. state you'll see that blond-haired, blue-eyed descendants of Swedish immigrants and their imported traditions and foods continue to dominate the social landscape to this day.
Gothenburg today
These days Gothenburg, Sweden is a modern industrial city, home to bustling manufacturing, fishing and shipping industries, and is still a vital cog in the overall economic health of Sweden and all of Scandinavia.
But even with its impressive business and shipping bona fides, Gothenburg tourism nonetheless is also a vital link in the economic chain that makes the city so successful.
That means that visiting Gothenburg is generally seen as a delightful, easy-to-manage affair that offers a ton of variety and exciting options for most people.
21 things to do in Gothenburg: What to see when visiting Gothenburg, Sweden's delightful second city
So where is Gothenburg?
The geography of the city is part and parcel of why it has been such a success and why it was so coveted for so many centuries.
It's unlikely that old King Adolphus could have seen this coming in the early 1600s, but the fact is that his placement of Gothenburg exactly where it is puts it just about halfway between the capitals of Oslo, Norway and Copenhagen, Denmark.
That strategic spot along with the access Gothenburg has to the Gota River, and from there to the Kattegat and the North Sea with the wide Atlantic and the rest of world waiting beyond has made Gothenburg an important player in the world of trade and business for centuries now.
That coastal location also gives Gothenburg weather a relatively mild aspect, especially for the Scandinavian part of the world.
If you visit in summer, you'll likely encounter weather in Gothenburg that is quite pleasant, with average summertime temperatures ranging from the high 60s into the low 70s (18.6 ºC – 21 ºC).
Although the summer months here have an average of around ten days of rain each, Gothenburg weather in summer can also get downright balmy, with record highs reaching into the low 90s in July and August (34.4 ºC).
And even though the winters there are relatively mild for the region—average lows in the winter months dip into the mid 20s (-3 ºC)—the best time to visit Gothenburg is definitely from June through August, with the months of May and September also offering relatively mild weather in Gothenburg, though not quite as warm.
Gothenburg tourism
When visiting Gothenburg, you'll find that the city is easily navigable on foot or by Gothenburg's public transport, rated among the best in the world for a city its size.
Walking along the broad, leafy avenues and canal-side streets, you'll pass cafes and restaurants as well as international and Swedish artisanal shops, especially along the Avenyn, the city's main boulevard.
There you can shop for all manner of items, ranging from original Swedish designs at high-end stores to used clothing in thrift shops, to Swedish-designed home furnishings and housewares as well.
If shopping isn't your bag, Gothenburg is also home to Liseberg, Scandinavia's largest amusement park. They've got the Helix, the longest and fastest roller coaster in all of Scandinavia, as well as Balder, rated the best wooden roller coaster in the world.
The Port of Gothenburg is also vitally important, playing host to some 30 percent of the nation's imports as well as a constant turnover of cruise ships.
And as the waterfront is such a vital key to the history of Gothenburg, Gothenburg tourism follows right in its footsteps, with attractions like the Museum of Gothenburg featuring the recovered timbers of a 10th-century Viking longship, as well as the Deutsche Kirk, or German Church, founded in 1748.
And when you visit the older neighbourhoods of Gothenburg, the memory of those long-ago Dutch city planners is never far away.
One big draw for visitors is to ply the waterways built into the structure of Gothenburg, with an endless variety of ferries and tour boats plying the waters throughout the municipality so you can see the canals up close before stopping off at waterside restaurants to enjoy the sunset and a beverage.
Dutch planning and the history of Gothenburg is also clearly on display when you visit Haga, one of the oldest parts of the city.
Haga Nygata is a pedestrian-only street, lined with cobblestones and well-preserved houses in the traditional Gothenburg style, with first floors constructed of stone and upper floors crafted from wood.
Haga is also home to an explosion of cafes, and the smell of strong, Swedish-style coffee permeates the air as you stroll through the compact neighbourhood. Here is also the best place to try a hagabullen, the massive traditional cinnamon bun that's nearly the size of your head.
If you manage to kill off an entire hagabullen, you'll definitely want to enjoy the Swedish tradition of fika or an extended, luxurious coffee break here while you digest.
Once you recover from your hagabullen hangover, you'll find that there are also a ton of shops of all kinds and varieties here, with chocolatiers offering their wares alongside marzipan and other sweet delicacies, traditional toy stores, specialty tea vendors, olive oil merchants, antiques, high fashion, used and vintage clothing and much more.
Once you've built up an appetite again, it's time to remember that Sweden and Gothenburg are big on fish. But did you know they're so into fish here that there is actually a church dedicated to fish?
Okay, not exactly, but the Feskekôrkaor Fish Church is a fish market built in 1874 with a design that strongly resembles a house of worship — and which houses some of the best seafood on offer in the entire Scandinavian world.
But visiting Gothenburg isn't just about the city. As you move further out to the coast you'll notice right away that the regional geography is pretty typical of the coastal areas of the region, featuring stunning, Instagram-ready vistas at every turn.
Gothenburg also offers a great many opportunities to have fun outside of the hustle and bustle of the city itself. The Gothenburg archipelagoon which the municipality was built is a rocky, barren area, marked by sharp cliffs and granite outcroppings offering spectacular visuals, especially as you approach the coast.
The entire region is peppered with charming fishing villages, and there are a variety of means to take you out to the islands in the archipelago, including by car, ferry or bus, all easily reachable in under an hour.
The southern part of the archipelago is famously car-free, and here you can truly revel in the wildness of the Nordic coastal regions.
There are tons of great activities on offer, including not only visiting the little fishing villages that seem to spring up everywhere, but also taking part in deep sea fishing expeditions yourself, as well as joining in on boating excursions through the islands — there's even a seal photo safari!
You can also see some of the most pristine and remote beaches in this part of the world, enjoy peaceful hikes, or tool around on a bike for hours on end.
Get göing!
Whatever you do, if and when you visit Sweden, make sure you pencil in a good block of time to visit Gothenburg.
While it may not hold the same international cachet as its better known neighbour Stockholm, Gothenburg is nonetheless a hugely popular draw for visitors, bringing in loads of tourists all year round.
From Gothenburg's restaurants to the bar and club scene to the coffee culture of hipster Haga to the museums and waterfront—to the chummy bohemian neighborliness of the town as a whole—Gothenburg is a must-see destination that should be on every traveler's short list!

Things Go Better With Atlanta's Reborn Candler Building
More: Preservation Magazine
By: Meghan Drueding
As the founder of the Coca-Cola Company, Asa Griggs Candler thought big. In 1904, he began building a high-rise that became the tallest in Atlanta upon its completion two years later.
The Candler Building's 17 stories were clad in Amicalola marble from northern Georgia, and sculptor F.B. Miles oversaw intricate carvings inside and out. The luxurious property held offices for Coca-Cola and the Central Bank & Trust (also founded by Candler) as well as steam baths and a hair salon.
The Candler continued to serve as an office building for decades after Candler's death in 1929, but a few years ago its owner, REM Associates, decided to convert it into a hotel. Now called the Candler Hotel, the rehabilitated building reopened in October of 2019 as part of the Curio Collection by Hilton and a member of Historic Hotels of America, a program of the National Trust.
The $85 million project was partly funded by federal historic tax credits supported by the National Trust Community Investment Corporation, and state historic tax credits. Much of the National Register-listed building remains intact—including the marble exterior, two Tiffany windows, the main staircase, and crystal chandeliers.
The hotel's restaurant, By George, is named after the original architect, George E. Murphy, and his assistant, George Stewart. "It's a homage to the architecture and design of the property," says Martin Wormull, the Candler's general manager.
Meghan Drueding is the managing editor of Preservation magazine. She has a weakness for Midcentury Modernism, walkable cities, and coffee table books about architecture and design.

Marie M. Daly
Also Known For : Scientist
Birth Place : New York City, New York, United States of America
Died On : October 28, 2003
Zodiac Sign : Aries
Marie M. Daly Biography, Life, Interesting Facts
Marie Maynard Daly was an American biochemist and most famous for being the first African American woman to earn a Doctorate degree in Chemistry in the USA.
Marie Maynard Daly was born in Queens, New York on April 16, 1921. She was the firstborn in the family of three children. The younger siblings were fraternal boys. Her father Ivan Daly migrated from the Caribbean to look for a better life in the US. Her mother Helen Page Daly grew up in Washington DC and came from an education conscious family. A bright student in school, Ivan enrolled for education at the Cornell University with a partial scholarship. He discontinued his pursuit after his first semester for a chemistry degree for lack of boarding and upkeep funds. He got a job with the postal services in New York.
As a child, Marie Daly developed a reading culture. Her inquisitive mind led to her reading of the book Microbe Hunters in her maternal grandfather's library while visiting them in Washington DC. In the book, she discovered the lives and achievements of microbiologists like Robert Koch and Louis Pasteur. Noticing her passion in sciences, her parents encouraged her to study hard and excel in her career despite being an African American woman.
She went to Hunter College High School in New York. She enrolled at Queens College after graduating from high school. She pursued chemistry in college and graduated with a degree in science majoring in chemistry in 1942. She got employed at the Queens College to teach chemistry to the undergraduates, so as she can support herself in her Master degree. In 1943, she got received her Master degree in Chemistry from New York University.
Four years later in 1947, Daly earned her doctorate in biochemistry from Columbia University. She wrote her thesis under the guidance of Dr. Mary Caldwell. Her thesis titled A Study of the Products Formed by the Action of Pancreatic Amylase on Corn Starch discussed how intestinal chemicals digest food in the body. Up to her graduation, Daly did not know her milestone achievement. She realized later on that she was the first African American woman to earn a Doctorate in chemistry.
Microbiological Research
In 1947, Daly was employed as a lecturer at the Howard University School of Physical Science. She held the position for until 1948. She secured a scholarship to join the Rockefeller University as a biochemist researcher in her post-graduate studies. In the university, Daly worked with other luminaries like Nobel Laureate Francis Peyton Rous and Leonor Michaelis. Rous did extensive research on the origins of cancer cells in living tissues.
Daly got a study grant from the American Cancer Society. She became an assistant to Dr. Alfred Mirsky. Under Mirsky, Daly studied the anatomy of proteins within the body cells. She regulated the protein metabolism to note the variations in cytoplasm activity, a major process in the creation of protein in the body. In 1955, she moved to Columbia University as a biochemist associate. She stayed at the College of Physicians and Surgeons for years until 1959. At the university, she researched on the correlation of aging and high blood pressure to atherosclerosis. In her study, she reviewed the metabolism and depositing of unwanted fat on the arterial walls of the heart. She noted that there was a higher risk of getting a heart attack in most of the people with a history of hypertension. Daly observed the relation between the deteriorating of the lungs and the smoking of cigarettes or primary smoke.
In 1960, she moved to become an assistant professor of biochemistry in the same institution. She served in her new posting until 1961. Daly teamed up with Dr. Quentin Deming to further research on the metabolism of the heart arteries. In her academic research, she also worked at the Yeshiva University in New York as an assistant professor of biochemistry in 1971.
In her quest to improve the racial inequalities and gender barriers, Daly encouraged the intake of black girls to study sciences in institutions of higher learning. She served in other boards in different capacities. Daly worked with the Health Research Council of New York. She served in the board of the New York Academy of Sciences for two years commencing 1974. Daly also served in other civil rights association like the National Association of Negro Business and Professional Women amongst others.
Later Years
In 1986, she decided to leave the academic field. She first resigned from her post at Yeshiva University. With time she resigned from other academic posts in learning institutions. Two years later she founded a scholarship fund to aid the bright needy minority students to pursue studies in science and medicine.
Daly got married to Vincent Clark in 1961. She spent her time in retirement with him at their retirement home in Sarasota in Florida. She kept constant visits to her family members and close friends in New York.
She exercised her hidden passion for gardening and culinary skills away from the human and animal tissue cells that marked a better part of her life.
Marie Maynard Daly died on October 28, 2003, at the age of 82 in New York. She pursued her dream in a field where few African American women never dared to dream. Modern science today celebrates advancement in medicine due to her achievements.

Two distinct types of PSP – RS and PSP-parkinsonism
Here's the citation to a very important paper published recently on progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP):
Brain. 2005 Jun;128(Pt 6):1247-58. Epub 2005 Mar 23.
Characteristics of two distinct clinical phenotypes in pathologically proven progressive supranuclear palsy: Richardson's syndrome and PSP-parkinsonism.
Williams DR, de Silva R, Paviour DC, Pittman A, Watt HC, Kilford L, Holton JL, Revesz T, Lees AJ.
The Queen Square Brain Bank for Neurological Disorders, University College London, UK.
Dr. David Williams and others from The Queen Square Brain Bank in London examined the brains and clinical records of 103 people with autopsy-confirmed PSP. They discovered two key clinical types of PSP: Richardson's Syndrome and PSP-parkinsonism.
The authors described Richardson's Syndrome (RS) as follows:
"The core clinical features of PSP appears to be bradykinesia, rigidity and postural instability, and are almost always present later in the disease. Together with the supranuclear vertical ophthalmoplegia, dementia, dysarthria and pseudobulbar palsy, they form the classic features of PSP. When these features appear in the first 2 years, a diagnosis of RS is most likely."
The authors described the PSP-parkinsonism type as follows:
"The features which most clearly differentiate this syndrome from RS appear to be an asymmetric onset, extra-axial dystonia, tremor and benefit from levodopa. Early bradykinesia appears to be essential for the diagnosis, but does not adequately differentiate it from RS, especially later in the disease course. Disease duration in PSP-P is significantly longer than in RS, and to our knowledge exceeds median survival in all clinicopathological PSP case series."
Here's the abstract to this important paper: (broken into paragraphs)
"The clinical diagnosis of progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) relies on the identification of characteristic signs and symptoms. A proportion of pathologically diagnosed cases do not develop these classic features, prove difficult to diagnose during life and are considered as atypical PSP. The aim of this study was to examine the apparent clinical dichotomy between typical and atypical PSP, and to compare the biochemical and genetic characteristics of these groups.
In 103 consecutive cases of pathologically confirmed PSP, we have identified two clinical phenotypes by factor analysis which we have named Richardson's syndrome (RS) and PSP-parkinsonism (PSP-P). Cases of RS syndrome made up 54% of all cases, and were characterized by the early onset of postural instability and falls, supranuclear vertical gaze palsy and cognitive dysfunction. A second group of 33 (32%) were characterized by asymmetric onset, tremor, a moderate initial therapeutic response to levodopa and were frequently confused with Parkinson's disease (PSP-P). Fourteen cases (14%) could not be separated according to these criteria. In RS, two-thirds of cases were men, whereas the sex distribution in PSP-P was even. Disease duration in RS was significantly shorter (5.9 versus 9.1 years, P < 0.001) and age at death earlier (72.1 versus 75.5 years, P = 0.01) than in PSP-P.
The isoform composition of insoluble tangle-tau isolated from the basal pons also differed significantly. In RS, the mean four-repeat:three-repeat tau ratio was 2.84 and in PSP-P it was 1.63 (P < 0.003). The effect of the H1,H1 PSP susceptibility genotype appeared stronger in RS than in PSP-P (odds ratio 13.2 versus 4.5). The difference in genotype frequencies between the clinical subgroups was not significant. There were no differences in apolipoprotein E genotypes.
The classic clinical description of PSP, which includes supranuclear gaze palsy, early falls and dementia, does not adequately describe one-third of cases in this series of pathologically confirmed cases. We propose that PSP-P represents a second discrete clinical phenotype that needs to be clinically distinguished from classical PSP (RS). The different tau isoform deposition in the basal pons suggests that this may ultimately prove to be a discrete nosological entity."
From my reading, the PSP-parkinsonism type of PSP looks like Parkinson's Disease and may look like MSA, specifically the parkinsonism type (MSA-P).
According to the full article, some people with PSP actually had a response to levodopa therapy! Do the diagnostic criteria need to be changed to accommodate this finding?
Update from 2007:
This important paper is now available online at no cost.
Here's the direct link to the Brain '05 article:

And I think the commentary is worth reading too:
"Alien limb phenomenon" is involuntary activity of a limb and a feeling that the limb is foreign. This symptom can occur in corticobasal degeneration. Learn more about CBD.
A common symptom in LBD, PSP, MSA, and CBD is rigidity or stiffness.
Frontotemporal degeneration (or frontotemporal lobar degeneration) is an umbrella term referring to disorders of the frontal lobe and temporal lobe. Within this FTD umbrella are movement disorder subtypes, which includes progressive supranuclear palsy and corticobasal degeneration. Learn more about PSP. Learn more about CBD.
Autopsy studies show that up to 40 percent of people diagnosed with the behavioral variant of frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) actually have Alzheimer's Disease.

Church of Nossa Senhora da Expectação
The Church of Nossa Senhora da Expectação is a church that already existed at least in the 14th century, having suffered modifications and inaugurated on the 26th of July of 1953. The present church was inspired on the medieval religious form.
In the 15th century, it was one of the most visited temples by the Lisbon Archbishopric.
As for the imagery patrimony, it's worth noting Nossa Senhora do Carril, Santo Antão and são Sebastião, corresponding to the ancient altars and congregations. According to tradition, the name Nossa Senhora do Carril is attributed to the image because it was found buried in a hole, under a track.
It's rare that a church is dedicated to Nossa Senhora da Expectação also known as Nossa Senhora do Ó, as the associated images represent Our Lady's pregnancy, of medieval iconography, that mostly disappeared or were hidden after the Tridentine decisions.

Essay writing has been an important aspect of education and needs no mention about its substance. There is no need of magic formula to writing the essay; just the basic rules which have to be followed while writing them.
There are different types of essay and each essay type has its own writing method. But what remains the same are the rules applicable while writing each of them.
Below you will find the basic rules that must be adhered to while writing an essay. These are simple enough to follow and will definitely take up the essay to the vertex.
The golden rule of any essay is to radiate around the topic and give justification to it while writing. It should focus on the subject matter from the start of a thesis statement till its conclusion. Each section of an essay is important and hence equal weight should be given to each of them. Chance should not be given to the topic to get deviated.
Plagiarism is a serious offense, abiding by copyright laws is a must while writing an essay. With so much of information around us, we must be sure not to copy them or use them without the owner's permission.
It is crystal clear that nobody likes to read an essay which has too much of mistakes. No amount of good information, facts or great writing skills can cover up the poor grammatical write-up. Hence the completed essay must be proofread twice or thrice (and from different sources like from a friend or through a professional) to check any errors in the essay.
There are specified structures for each essay. Following them properly is a correct way of finishing an essay. Each section must be justified properly giving in all the accurate information. Improper structuring leads to a bad essay.
The essay as mentioned in the above points should be structured properly to be well read. The introduction part must contain a strong thesis statement which conjoins the body section of the essay.
The transition from a body section to the conclusion part must also be well connected. The conclusion section should be strong enough to support the whole essay and stand by the point to be made.
The information to be given must be researched beforehand. Giving wrong information and incorrect facts can only harm the quality of an essay.
The essay must maintain the etiquette of using relevant words and using it in a proper space. The writer must know when and how to use the words. Sometimes all it needs is simplicity and sophistication rather than complexity and use of high-end vocabulary.
Sentence structure, proper punctuation marks, use of proper grammar and are the things that are to be kept in mind. Best results come only when these rules are followed.
In formal writing, there is no practice of using contractions such as don't, can't, won't and few more. Contractions can be used in few of the essays such as narrative and descriptive types. But academic writing strictly prohibits the use of short forms.
The essay is a piece of writing which gives information about a topic or a subject matter. Writing essay is like a theory but the important point not to be missed out is choosing an eye-catching title.
Title unarguably is the gateway to an essay. Therefore it must be noted that title should increase the reader's interest towards the writing.

The public is being welcomed to engage in trash talk with a group of artists Monday evening at the Premier Wine and Spirits Tap Room, located in the Cayman Technology Centre on Printer Way.
The bar and social space has been turned into small gallery for 'Trash Talks', an exhibit of art incorporating plastics and other refuse, some recyclable, some not. An artists' reception for the show is planned from 4:30 to 7 p.m., Monday, April 15.
The pieces displayed range from a translucent ocean wave created with polyethylene terephthalate bottles to a Dia de los Muertos-inspired design that incorporates a once-discarded styrofoam skull. The portrait of Jimi Hendrix, a mosaic by the Stoak'd studio using plastic bottle caps and seen by thousands of people at the recent KAABOO Festival, sits out in front of the Premier store, the only outside piece of the exhibit.
Trash Talks is a loose collective of artists, all of whom are doing some work with found or recyclable material. Kerwin Ebanks helped form the group. Included in the show is an albatross, created with wire and fishing line, hanging above the bar and a mosaic using bits of plastic to depict a landscape with birds.
That group included the artists and the tap room's bartender who entered into conversation with Ebanks on the subject one evening.
So far, he says, reaction to the show has been promising.
Interest in the medium is growing, he says, helped in part by the movement to reduce the amount of plastic in Cayman.
Premier manager Sabrina Stecyk says this is the first exhibit the store has done. She hopes to do other community-based projects in the coming months. She says she's impressed by the work on the walls.
The show continues through the end of the month. Store hours are 4-9 p.m. Monday through Friday and 1-9 p.m. Saturdays.

macOS is the operating system that powers everything you do on a Mac. macOS Sierra introduces more ways to enjoy your photos and work more seamlessly between devices.
Our goal with MacBook was to do the impossible: engineer a full?size experience into the thinnest, lightest Mac notebook yet. And not only is it compact — it's more powerful than ever. The new MacBook delivers up to 20 percent faster performance with new seventh?generation Intel Core m3, i5, and i7 processors,1 and up to 50 percent faster SSD storage.2 More muscle in every millimeter. Now equipped with seventh-generation Intel Core processors, MacBook is snappier than ever. From daily tasks like launching apps and opening files to more advanced computing, you can power through your day thanks to faster SSDs and Turbo Boost processing up to 3.6GHz. We squeezed the most into it. And out of it. Each component inside MacBook has been meticulously designed to get the most out of an incredibly thin and light enclosure. We chose powerful yet highly efficient processors, and optimized macOS to draw on the processor using as little power as possible. Because no fan is needed to cool the computer, it has more room for battery cells to support you on the go, all day long. Processor Inside you'll find seventh-generation Intel Core m3, i5, and i7 processors with 14-nanometer process technology. This lets MacBook expertly combine energy efficiency with the performance needed to take on all sorts of tasks. Fanless architecture MacBook was built for virtually silent performance. Its processor runs on just 5 watts of power, which generates less heat and eliminates the need for a fan to cool the computer. Instead, the logic board is seated on an anisotropic graphite sheet that helps disperse any heat. So you won't hear a thing while your MacBook is hard at work. Storage and memory Though its components are tiny, MacBook has an impressive capacity to store the files and run the applications you need every day. With up to 16GB of 1866MHz LPDDR3 onboard memory and up to 512GB of SSD storage, you get an amazingly thin and light notebook with snappy performance. Battery To achieve all-day battery life,3 we needed to use every millimeter of space inside MacBook. So we created an innovative terraced battery cell, custom shaped to fit the specific contours of the enclosure. The result is 35 percent more battery cell capacity than would have been possible before. A Retina display that takes everything to the edge. The stunning 12-inch Retina display on MacBook is truly something to behold. With over 3 million pixels and edge-to-edge glass, every image leaps off the screen in rich, vibrant detail.

Tim's meticulous advice and support made the whole process of selling our house extremely straightforward and notably unstressful.
He provided an exemplary service in marketing the house and achieved a price which was comfortably in excess of the valuations of three other Bath estate agents. Tim made himself always available, and we felt that we always had his full care and attention; there were no concerns we raised that he had not already thought of, and had in hand.
However it was in the management of the process after the offer had been accepted that we felt that Tim added exceptional value. He kept in very regular contact with all parties involved in the chain including solicitors and other estate agents to ensure that he was informed, and could keep the process moving fluidly. The whole transaction went through smoothly and without any of the delays that can be caused by tardy communications.
Overall, we were absolutely delighted and would have no hesitation in using him again. It was by far the most straightforward experience we have had in selling a property, and that was certainly down to his careful management.


Had to reset pc. Doing clean install of apps, etc. Problem when I go to add my main gmail account, windows is telling me the password is incorrect and I need to fix it/update it. The thing is, it IS correct. I have just logged into my account on my pc gmail AND my android uses it!!
Any help would be appreciated. Although I don't use LIVE mail, I'd like gmail linked.

I have two unbound forms that I am navigating between. I open the first form, then open the second form from a command button on the first form. When I am finished with entry on the second, my close button on the second form updates a combo box (ComboBox1) on the first form with the proper value.
The issue that I am having is that I'm also trying to update some textboxes on the first form after the update of the combo box on the first form. Currently, I have functions and subs that update these textboxes after ComboBox1 AfterUpdate event occurs. This works fine when I am on the first form and update ComboBox1.
I would like the same processes to happen after the second form closes and ComboBox1 is updated, but I have yet to figure out how to fire an event on the first form after the second form is closed. It seems once the second form closes, no OnCurrent, Activate, or GotFocus event occurs on the first form where I could insert the calls to the procedures that I want to do.
Any suggestions or perhaps insight would be appreciated!
will give you the events and when they happen.
The On_Activate on the first form is where I would try first.
After this, the second form is closed and the first form is the active form, but no events on the first form are firing. I am trying to fire an event on the first form so I can call some procedures which update the textboxes on the first form.
I tried that, set some breaks on the first form's Form_Activate, Form_Current, and Form_GotFocus parts of the code, and not one of these fired once the second form was closed. Should one of these fire?
tried a test and here is what I did I created 2 forms. Nothing on them just 2 forms.
MsgBox "I am back "
When I open Form1 I see the message box, when I close Form2 I see the message box telling me the event fires.
Now without actually seeing your database itis hard to tell what you need to do. You may have to set a control to get focus or create a control to set the focus to first then run your code from there.
Perhaps I am coding myself into a corner, but I'm hoping that there is an event that would fire with the methods I am using.
See my revision to your sample.
I have placed another text box on the form it looks like a 1 under the first textbox label.
You can size it smaller so it won't even be seen but I left it so you could see it. I use the Got Focus of this control to run my message box also check out form 2 code.
Without seeing the actual database this is the best I can suggest. Use a control to run your needed code.
That was it! For some reason I was focused on the form, not the control.


A street in north Wales could soon be recognised as the steepest in the world, with official measurements set to be taken.
The title is currently held by Baldwin Street in Dunedin, New Zealand, which has a gradient of 35% at its steepest.
But residents of Harlech in Gwynedd, believe Ffordd Pen Llech, near the town's famous castle in Snowdonia, is steeper at 36%.
Measurements will be taken on Wednesday and sent to Guinness World Records.
But confirmation on whether a new record has been set will not be given until later in the month.
Interesting... the bottom few metres of Vale Street, at its junction with Park Street (shown here https://goo.gl/maps/Zsva2xkNh8u ) must be close to 40o; the quoted 22o gradient presumably refers to the main part of the street. Sadly, the Guinness record requires the gradient to be maintained over a continuous distance of 10m. So there's your answer: Vale Street may well be the steepest street in the world measured over 2m, but over 10m it isn't!
Now it has been "put on the map" it will probably be plagued by hill-climbing cyclists.

Made from dried great northern beans, this recipe is surprisingly easy to throw together, packed with flavor... and affordable!
Using sauté setting... Add oil, onions, carrots, and celery to pot. Cook for about 5 minutes (until onions are translucent and carrots begin to soften).
Add vinegar, garlic, thyme, and bay leaf - cook for 2 minutes, until vinegar has evaporated.
Add broth, tomatoes, beans, and black pepper to pot. Mix well.
Finally, add kale to pot and press down as much as possible, so that most of the kale is submerged. Resist the urge to stir here since it is much more important that the beans are in broth.
Lock lid and cook for 15 minutes at high pressure. Once cook time is complete, quick-release pressure and remove lid.
Add salt to pot and mix very well. While stirring, remove bay leaf and thyme sprigs.
Let soup sit for at least 10 minutes before serving. This will allow the beans to absorb the salt.
If you prefer to use canned beans (drained and rinsed), cook the soup for 4 minutes at high pressure. Then quick-release the pressure.
