IRONY ALERT: Kamala Harris Says Trump PLAYING POLITICS with Border Security, Illegal Immigration
posted by Hannity Staff - 18 hours ago
Senator Kamala Harris slammed the Trump administration for "politicizing" illegal immigration Friday; saying the President was "vilifying" migrants as part of his 2020 re-election strategy.
"Millions of people will enter this weekend filled with fear. Children who are U.S. citizens will wonder if their mothers will be ripped from home in the pre-dawn hours before church on Sunday. And why? So Trump can vilify immigrants as part of a political campaign. It's shameful," posted Harris on social media.

Illegal immigration is ranked among the top political issues for Americans heading into the general election.
Vermont Senator and far-left presidential candidate Bernie Sanders confirmed this week that his socialized health care proposal will "absolutely" provide coverage to every single illegal immigrant in the United States.
"We will organize the American people around the concept that all people in this country have the right to health care, and at the end of the day, we are going to win that struggle," said Sanders during a recent speech.
"Senator, would you include the 11 million undocumented immigrants in America?" asked the moderator.
"Absolutely. When I talk about health care being a human right, the last time I heard that undocumented people are human beings," he fired-back.
Bernie Sanders' campaign released a new Democratic Socialist 'Economic Bill of Rights' weeks ago; saying all Americans should be provided with healthcare, education, a 'good job,' housing, secure retirement, and more.
"We need a 21st Century Economic Bill of Rights:
– The right to health care
– The right to education
– The right to a good job
– The right to affordable housing
– The right to a secure retirement
– The right to a clean environment#DemocraticSocialism," posted Josh Miller-Lewis, Sanders' Digital Communications Director.

BACKLASH BUILDS: AOC Pushed to Publicly Apologize for Vicious 'Concentration Camp' Remarks
posted by Hannity Staff - 6.18.19
Embattled Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez found herself once-again at the center of national controversy this week; facing growing calls for a public apology after she compared US immigration centers with Nazi concentration camps.
"Has she ever been to Yad Vashem in Jerusalem or Auschwitz-Birkenau in southern Poland or Dachau in Germany?" asked Fox News' Bill Hemmer. "'Never Again' is the phrase that Jews all over the world use to make sure that the extermination between 1939 and 1945 never happens again, and she's using concentration camps to describe what's happening on the southern border."
"How in the world is that acceptable? Does she not owe every Jew on this planet an apology?" he asked.
"I think it's disgusting to compare what the men and women do out on the border right now to that, and it is definitely a slap in the face to a lot of these individuals that have family members that actually went through concentration camps," added a member of the National Border Patrol Council.
Ocasio-Cortez made her vicious accusation during a live stream on Instagram Monday night.
"The United States is running concentration camps on our southern border. That's exactly what they are. They are concentration camps. If that doesn't bother you… I like, whatever, I want to talk to the people that are concerned with humanity that 'Never Again' means something," said the left-wing lawmaker.
"The fact that concentration camps are now an institutionalized practice in the home of the free is extraordinarily disturbing," she added.

The self-described Democratic Socialist made national headlines last week when she called for a $4,500 raise for Members of Congress and a "cost-of-living adjustment" for all Americans.
"It may be politically convenient and make you look good in the short term… but we should be fighting for pay increases for every American worker. We should be fighting for $15 an hour minimum wage pegged to inflation," said Ocasio-Cortez.
"Everybody in the United States, with a salary, with a wage gets a cost of living increase. Members of Congress, retail workers, everybody should get a cost of living increase," she added.

Katie Hopkins in Jerusalem Premieres Her Movie On The Danger of Islamism
By Avi Abelow - June 18, 2019 5035 0
British media personality Katie Hopkins was present in Jerusalem for the Israel premiere of her movie "Homelands". "Homelands" documents the silent exodus of European Jews from Europe due to the growing Jew-hating violence of Islamism. It also focuses on the danger the growing Islamic community in Europe poses to European Christians. This is a must see movie.

"Super excited to be here in the heart of Jerusalem," Hopkins said in the video. "Despite the best efforts of the very small minded Left… to shut us down – we've moved venues three times – still, we have prevailed. Looking forward to welcoming our audience tonight."
The representative body of British Jewry, Board of Deputies, pressured three venues in Israel to cancel the screening until a location in Jerusalem offered to host it. Sadly, organized Jewish leadership in Britain still remains silent regarding the growing threat of Jew-hatred from Islam. Yes, there is Jew-hatred on the right, as there is Jew-hatred on the left and Jew-hatred from the growing Muslim community in Europe. But Katie Hopkins, and her co-producer, Janice Atkinson are not far-right Jew-haters or Israel haters.
Both Katie Hopkins and Janice Atkinson spoke at the Jerusalem screening, as well as in the movie, and they are extremely supportive of the European Jewish community and Israel. They seem to be more supportive of the Jewish community in Europe, and of Israel as the homeland of the Jewish people, than some of the leadership of British Jewry, who ignore the real threat the growing Muslim British community pose to British Jews.
Amos Schonfield, a representative of the Board of Deputies that pressured the Israeli screening locations to cancel the screenings, wrote in an article in the Haaretz newspaper that the movie is an "an openly Islamophobic "documentary"." How the writer can say such a thing without even seeing the movie is beyond me.
No, the movie is not Islamophobic. It does a very good job of interviewing people in Europe and in Israel who share their personal experiences in Europe. Through these interviews, it also does a wonderful job of showing Israel as the homeland of the Jewish people. There is nothing Islamophobic about it. The movie is filled with factual occurrences that are mostly all known and documented.

https://hannity.com/media-room/breaking-news-us-mexico-agree-to-new-deal-on-trade-illegal-immigration-tariffs-suspended/
posted by Hannity Staff - 4 hours ago
The United States and Mexico reached a "signed agreement" Friday evening ending days of tough talks and forging a new deal that will suspend the White House's 5% tariff on Mexican goods and crackdown on illegal immigration at the Southern Border.
"I am pleased to inform you that The United States of America has reached a signed agreement with Mexico. The Tariffs scheduled to be implemented by the U.S. on Monday, against Mexico, are hereby indefinitely suspended," he said. "Mexico, in turn, has agreed to take strong measures to….stem the tide of Migration through Mexico, and to our Southern Border. This is being done to greatly reduce, or eliminate, Illegal Immigration coming from Mexico and into the United States. Details of the agreement will be released shortly by the State Department. Thank you!"
….stem the tide of Migration through Mexico, and to our Southern Border. This is being done to greatly reduce, or eliminate, Illegal Immigration coming from Mexico and into the United States. Details of the agreement will be released shortly by the State Department. Thank you!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 8, 2019
"If we are unable to make the deal, Mexico will begin paying Tariffs at the 5% level on Monday!" Trump tweeted earlier Friday.
The Mexican government reportedly deployed their military to its southern border this week; offering major immigration concessions to the Trump administration to avoid proposed tariffs scheduled to take effect Monday.
"With just days to go until the Trump administration is set to impose punishing tariffs on Mexico unless the country halts the unprecedented flow of illegal immigrants across the southern border, numerous signs that Mexico would capitulate emerged Thursday — but it remained unclear Friday morning whether their efforts would satisfy the White House," reports Fox News.
"Reports in the evening indicated that Mexico's negotiators with Washington have offered to immediately deploy 6,000 National Guard troops to the border with Guatemala. Additionally, Mexico has reportedly agreed to a major overhaul of reasonable asylum protocols, which would require asylum applicants to seek permanent refuge in the first country they arrive in after fleeing their home countries," adds the article.
Mexican authorities prevented an additional 'migrant caravan' originating in Central America from entering its borders this week; a gesture that could help future trade talks with the Trump administration.
"Authorities blocked a new caravan of Central American migrants Wednesday after they entered Mexico bound for the United States, as the government scrambled to dodge President Donald Trump's threat to impose tariffs over undocumented immigration," reports Yahoo News.
"Soldiers and police forced hundreds of migrants in the group — which was mostly from Honduras — to a halt in the southern town of Metapa de Dominguez, about 12 kilometers (7.5 miles) from the Mexican-Guatemalan border," adds the report.
The Trump administration is prepared to impose a 5% tariff on all Mexican products on Monday should their government fail to crackdown on illegal immigration flowing towards the United States.
The escalating crisis at the border took a turn for the worse in May 2019, with new statistics showing federal agents detained more than 55,000 children attempting to illegally enter the United States.
"The government set another grim record in May with more than 55,000 children nabbed by Border Patrol agents along the southwest border," reports the Washington Times. "They were part of more than 130,000 unauthorized migrants Border Patrol agents and officers at the ports of entry encountered last month, up from about 109,000 in April and far higher than the 51,000 or so nabbed in May 2018."

Plenty of new games for Xbox One players to get excited about today. The first is Has-Been Heroes from Frozenbyte; the team behind the Trine series. This title is being published by GameTrust the …
Trine 2 review (XBLA)
By	Ryan Reynolds	• Reviews, XBLA Reviews, Featured Reviews
Trine 2 was developed Frozenbyte and published by Atlus. It was released on December 21, 2011 for 1200 MSP. A copy of the game was provided for review purposes.
Back in 2009, Finnish developer Frozenbyte launched their physics based puzzle-platformer, Trine. The game caught the eye of many gamers and now two years later, Trine 2 has launched looking to build on the first game's success. Leaning on its familiar blend of beautiful backdrops, character switching, and physics based puzzles, Trine 2 brings our heroes from the first game back and sets them off on a new quest to save the game's mystical universe. But just who are these heroes and why are they important? Each character brings something unique to the game. Pontius, the knight is the warrior of the group who spends most of his time doing what he does best; fighting. Amadeus, the wizard spends his time using magic manipulating the environment. Finally, there's Zora, a thief who excels at moving from place to place quickly and efficiently and also happens to wield a bow. Three completely different characters with completely different skill sets. If you've ever wondered what throwing three playable characters, physics, platforming, a gorgeous and mesmerizing fantasy world, and lots of puzzles into a blender yields, the answer is Trine 2. For better or worse, the answer is Trine 2.

Icicles are cause by a process known as ice damming, commonly found on the drip edge of homes and other buildings. This occurs when there is enough heat escaping through the roof to cause the snow that is on the roof to melt into water and run down the roof only to freeze at the unheated section known as the drip edge. The more heat leaving the home through the roof deck, the worse the ice dams get. This is a sign of a poorly insulated attic. The ice can even curl the shingles up and get underneath the shingle. When that ice melts, it goes directly into the home in most cases, ruining sheet rock, blistering paint, and causing mold problems with the framing of the home. This process can be stopped by using spray foam insulation to air seal your attic system. By air sealing the attic, you cut off the thermal exchange between the warm air in your home and the cold air outside. The spray foam also adds structural integrity to the roof to help hold any extra snow that wont be melting off of the roof anymore.


REC were the first company to introduce a half-cut cell panel into the Australian market, with their TwinPeak series. The technology was so impressive that it won the Intersolar Award for photovoltaics in 2015 (with the highly regarded LG NeON 2). Since then, we've seen big manufacturers like Canadian Solar and Hanwha Q CELLS follow suit, with the later winning an Intersolar Award for their new Q.PEAK DUO-G5. Companies like Jinko and Trina have also announced they're introducing this technology. Winning an Intersolar Award in our industry is a big deal, so two manufacturers winning with this award with half-cut cell technology indicates it's been well received.
Most of the advantages of half-cut cell panels is attributed to halving the internal current of the panel. Halving the current lowers the resistive losses, which is why the performance is enhanced. We'll explain this first in more detail. This results in many benefits like higher output, better production per m² and better performance in heat. Shading benefits, better durability and some other performance gains are also realised with the necessary revised panel configuration. Let's take a deeper look.
Power transmission - current is reduced to save losses.
In a solar module, power losses occur as the electrons travel through the cell interconnections and bus bars. Since power loss equals resistance multiplied by the current squared (P loss = R x I²), a reduction in current would reduce the loss. Splitting the cell into two halves the current (not the voltage) of the cell, so when you apply this change to the equation the losses are reduced by 75%. As current is highest in peak production times, this is when the benefit is greatest. Reducing current to reduce losses is nothing new, we've done it for over a century in power transmission. However having twice the amount of half current cells doubles our voltage, which would have unwanted consequences on system design. This is solved in the revised panel configuration.
So if the 120 half-cut cells were wired in one string, we'd have twice the voltage and half the current of a normal 60 cell panel. To fix this, manufacturers have redesigned the cell layout to have two strings of 60 half-cut cell panels joined in parallel. The overall result is quite clever, as the voltage and current coming out is identical to a standard 60 cell panel, but the internal current is halved. This results in a 1.5-3% increase in efficiency, which is more profound than it sounds. It also has some desirable side effects.
Side Note - Why not six bypass diodes?
When a bypass diode activates, the entire voltage of that string is lost (find out more in my shading blog). When you join the top and bottom half of the panel in parallel, the voltage needs to be the same. If you had a bypass diode on each of the six sub strings, there's a chance the voltage won't match. Having one bypass diode that acts for both a string on top and a string on the bottom prevents this from occurring.
Canadian Solar discusses the benefits of half-cell cut solar panels.
1.5-3% extra efficiency means the panel is converting more sunlight into electricity. When this is happening less heat is being generated, which lowers panel operating temperature. As panels perform better when they're cooler, this improves performance.
Having more power in the same amount of space (increased space efficiency) can be useful if you're space restricted, but you might look to monocrystalline panels before half-cut cells for this.
Shading is still going to have a significant impact on your system, even if it's the scenarios favoured by these panels.
The panel may behave differently on its own than it would in a string or with an MLPE device (Module Level Power Electronics, like micro-inverters or optimisers).
One of the things the manufacturers push is the ability for the top half of the panel to perform unaffected if the bottom half is in shade, or vice versa. To understand this, we need a quick refresh on shading.
Click to see my full shading blog post.
When you shade a cell, it's current drops proportional to the shade. When you have a string of panels connected in series, your current is limited to the lowest performing cell. So when you shade a cell, your current drops to the lowest performing cell in that string. While normal panels are separated into three sub-strings, they're still connected in one big string.
For more info, see my blog post on shading.
When you have two strings connected in parallel (like the top and bottom half of these panels are), you can isolate the lower current cell to just that side. So one half can be producing at 10% capacity and the other producing at full. This is quite handy, but it comes with a drawback.
Remember my comment, "The panel may behave differently on its own than it would in a string or with an MLPE device"? This is why it's important.
Let's say you have a string of 10 panels (quite common), on a string inverter, all in perfect sunlight - except one panel which has complete shade on the bottom half. In this case, that panel could produce at 50%, but then so would all the other panels. This is not ideal. The inverter's MPPT won't let this happen though. Instead, the current will remain high and the bypass diodes on that panel will activate and bypass that entire panel.
If you had an optimiser or micro-inverter in the above scenario, it's a different (better) story. That panel could then produce at 50% while the others continue unaffected.
This looks at a two scenarios, one where where half-cut cells won't help and the other where they will help immensely.
when will this panel perform better in shade?
You're installing panels close to a northern wall, they are installed in portrait and the bottom part of the panel is shaded for a small portion of the year.
Half-cut cell panels will help here enormously. For that small portion of the year, the bottom half of all the panels is cut off and doesn't effect the top half. Normal panels would almost completely shut off for that entire time.
You are using tilt framing to face north and you want to put panels close together to fit another row in and produce more energy over the year.
When using tilt framing, you need to space out the panels so the shading from the north row doesn't impact the row behind it. With half-cut cell panels, if the bottom half of the panel is only being shaded for a small, poor performing portion of the year, this won't impact the top half. So you can install panels closer together, install more and overall you'll get more energy.
Minor shading or soiling on one half of most of the panels.
It's common for the bottom half of the panels to experience greater dirt build up (soiling). When this occurs on all your panels, the lower current from the bottom half of the panels won't impact the top half like it does with standard panels.
Click on image to read about Jinko's, the world's largest panel manufacturer, plans with half cut cells.
In the shading scenarios above, there's added benefits than just production. The bypass diodes are not being activated, which is really good for the lifespan of the panel.
As mentioned though, shading is still going to have a significant impact on your system. If your planned system will have some shading at any time of the year, ensure the person designing your system is very well versed in managing the impact of shading.
The smaller junction boxes and cell shape allow for less gap at the top and added spaces between the cells. This actually improves output compared to standard panels, as it allows more light to be rebounded off the backsheet, onto the underside of the glass and back on the cell.
Three small boxes on the back, instead of one bigger box, houses the bypass diodes. This enables them to be closer to where they're required, reducing internal connections and lowering resistance. More importantly though, the split junction boxes can run 10 plus degrees cooler, improving diode lifespan.
The cell interconnections expand and contract as the panel heats and cools each day. Smaller cells reduces the stress on these interconnections and joints.
Smaller cells means that if a micro-crack does develop, it can't travel as far. Smaller cells also means they flex less, reducing the chance of them occurring in the first place.
Hot Spots occur when there is an area of inefficiency. This can occur in many instances, like when you have partial shading, soiling, cell damage or mismatch. Having less current can reduce Hot Spot temperature by 30 degrees.
Provided you choose a good manufacturer, there aren't any show stopping drawbacks. The reason I say this is because there are twice the soldering connections, so with twice the risk of bad contacts, you want them made in a good facility. Cutting the cells in half needs to be done properly as well.
The price isn't much more than a standard panel, although many manufacturers include extra features with their half-cut cell panels, like PERC, more bus bars, monocrystalline cells etc. So while the half-cut cell feature only adds a little more to the cost, you might find the panel cost a bit higher due to the introduction of other features as well.
I'm personally a fan of half-cut cell panels and I believe they're here to stay. Don't purchase them because they're drastically better in shade, but in certain circumstances know that they can be. More and more manufacturers are looking to bring this technology in and they are already highly awarded, so my feeling is that we'll be seeing more of these panels.

44-year-old Freddie W. Smith of Vineland NJ - Photo: Atlantic County Prosecutor's Office
44-year-old Freddie W. Smith pleaded guilty to one count of first-degree strict liability for causing a drug-induced death.
Smith admitted he sold drugs containing fentanyl which killed an 18-year-old man in 2020.
The Atlantic County Prosecutor's Office says state police led an investigation that determined the victim had gone to a Wawa in Vineland at some point on March 11th or 12th, 2020. In the parking lot, Smith sold the drugs containing fentanyl to the decedent who was later found dead on a couch in his family's home.
Toxicology testing of the decedent's blood determined he died from fentanyl and cocaine, and a search warrant was later executed on Smith's home where law enforcement recovered drug packaging paraphernalia, fentanyl, and cocaine.
Under the terms of the plea, Smith is expected to be sentenced to 12 years in state prison; he will have to serve just over a decade before becoming eligible for parole. Once released, he will need to serve five years of parole supervision.
Sentencing is scheduled for January 9th.

Vegetative Merkmale
Amitostigma simplex ist eine ausdauernde krautige Pflanze, die Wuchshöhen von 7 bis 26 Zentimeter erreicht und terrestrisch wächst. Sie bildet bei einer Länge von 10 bis 15 Millimeter und einem Durchmesser von 5 bis 10 Millimeter längliche fast kugelige Knollen. Der schlanke, glatte Stängel besitzt nahe seiner Basis zwei röhrenförmige Blattscheiden und darüber ein einzelnes, grundständiges bis auf halber Stängelhöhe stehendes Laubblatt. Die einfache, Blattspreite ist bei einer Länge von 2 bis 8 Zentimeter und bei einer Breite 3 bis 8 Millimeter länglich-lanzettlich mit einem spitzen oberen Ende.

Generative Merkmale
Die Blütezeit reicht in China von Juni bis August. Der auf einem unbeblätterten oder selten mit einem laubblattähnlichen Hochblatt versehenen Blütenstandsschaft stehende Blütenstand enthält an einer 1–3,5 cm langen Blütenstandsachse in lockeren bis fast dichten Abständen drei bis mehr als zehn Blüten. Die bei einer Länge von 3 bis 6 Millimeter lanzettliche mit spitzem oberen Ende geformte Deckblatt ist meist kürzer wie der Fruchtknoten.

Der Blütenstiel und Fruchtknoten ist 6 bis 9 mm lang. Die zwittrige Blüte ist zygomorph und dreizählig. Die Blütenhüllblätter sind hell rosa- bis blass purpurfarben und bis zur Mitte der Lippe purpurfarben gepunktet. Das obere, aufrechte Kelchblatt ist bei einer Länge von 2,5 bis 3,3 Millimeter und einer Breite von etwa 2,0 Millimeter länglich-eiförmig, konkav mit stumpfem oberen Ende. Die beiden seitlichen, ausgebreiteten bis zurückgebogenen Kelchblätter sind bei einer Länge von 3 bis 4 Millimeter und einer Breite von etwa 1,8 Millimeter eiförmig und leicht schräg. Die Kronblätter sind mit den seitlichen Kelchblättern locker verbunden und bilden eine Kappe. Die Kronblätter sind bei einer Länge von 2,8 bis 3,5 Millimeter und einer Breite von etwa 2 Millimeter breit-eiförmig mit stumpfem oberen Ende. Die bis zu ihrer Mitte dreilappige Lippe ist bei einer Länge von 4,5 bis 6, selten bis zu 8 Millimeter und einer Breite von 3,5 bis 4 Millimeter im Umriss rhombisch-verkehrt-eiförmig mit stumpfem oberen Ende. Die beiden Seitenlappen sind bei einer Länge von 2 bis 3,5 Millimeter und bei einer Breite von 1,6 bis 2 Millimeter länglich-verkehrt-eiförmig. Der Mittellappen ist bei einer Länge von 2,5 bis 4 Millimeter und bei einer Breite von etwa 2 Millimeter länglich-verkehrt-eiförmig mit spitz zulaufender Basis und stumpf-gestutztem oder selten ausgerandetem bis leicht eingekerbtem, zwei kleine Lappen bildendem oberen Ende. Der mehr oder weniger nach unten zeigende, etwas nach innen gebogene Sporn ist bei einer Länge von 3,5 bis 6 Millimeter zylindrisch und verbreitert sich zum oberen, stumpfen Ende hin. Die Narbenlappen sind keulenförmig.

Vorkommen und Gefährdung
Das natürliche Verbreitungsgebiet von Amitostigma tetralobum liegt im südlichen China. Die Art gedeiht auf steinigen Böden in Wäldern und an grasigen Hängen im südwestlichen Sichuan und dem südwestlichen sowie westlichen Yunnan in Höhenlagen zwischen 1500 und 2700 Meter.

Amitostigma tetralobum gilt gemäß der Roten Liste der IUCN als gefährdet (""). Amitostigma tetralobum ist im CITES Appendix II aufgeführt, um den Handel weltweit zu vermeiden.

This site is dedicated to Sir Walter Tapper, and the fabulous architecture that he left us.
SIR WALTER TAPPER AND THE GUILDFORD GRAMMAR SCHOOL CHAPEL
David Dolan and Leigh O'Brien
The Guildford Chapel
On the other side of the world, the Guildford chapel was never actually seen by its architect. Tapper directed its building from afar, and via Michael on the spot, keeping control over almost every step from its design to the furnishings and fittings. He was very diplomatic in his negotiations with Henn, Oliverson and other individual donors, often incorporating their specific requests, but moulding these to comply with his overall vision for the chapel.39 He contracted his own preferred artisans: Jack Bewsey for the reredos and stained glass windows, and Bainbridge Reynolds for the lectern.
After an initial attempt to employ a local Western Australian building firm, Tapper awarded the tender to the English builders he himself used, Jarvis and Sons, when it appeared the Australian contract details did not meet with his or Oliverson's approval.40 Possibly, this was just an excuse for Tapper to insist on his own builders. The decision, at this time, to also send his own son Michael to Guildford as Clerk of Works demonstrates the importance Tapper attached to the carrying out of his own design. This move finally relegated the local consulting architects Hobbs Smith and Forbes to a subordinate position, but Tapper's own words were that they could 'like it or lump it'.41
For Tapper, the integrity and cohesiveness of the new chapel was of the utmost importance. On a number of occasions Tapper stipulated that nothing, no matter how small, should be added to the chapel without his approval – this also applied to any work in the future.42 This illustrates Tapper's dedication to an overall design aesthetic, including everything from the building itself right down to the candlesticks! Upon completion in 1914, Tapper described the Guildford chapel as a work of 'real joy' to him.43
Throughout the war, Tapper continued to work on designs for a layout of the entire school. Son Michael contributed his first-hand knowledge and experience of the site to this work once he returned from the war and joined his father's practice. Unfortunately, however, much to the Tapper's and Henn's bitter disappointment, the council decided in 1922 that none of the work would be carried out. The Council agreed to pay £1000 for the design work completed to date, but refused to pay any extra amount to Tapper's surveyor. Henn had to relay to Tapper the Council's arguments that the work should never have been carried out by a surveyor in England and that the terms of employment were completely different to those in Western Australia where such fees were not paid if a project did not go ahead.44 Tapper was forced to pay the surveyor out of his own earnings. This was no doubt of much embarrassment to Henn, caught in the middle, particularly as there had by now developed a firm friendship between the two men who had in common not only their passion and commitment to the school's architecture but also the fact that Henn and his wife had been such kind hosts to Tapper's own son during his time at Guildford.
The war memorial to honour Guildford old scholars killed in the First World War was the only other element of Tapper's extensive plans to be implemented. Tapper suggested the position for a memorial in November 1916. The Guildford memorial is a smaller version of the one he designed for Lancaster Gate in London, which was consecrated at Easter 1921. The Lancaster Gate memorial was dismantled after being damaged in the great storm of 1987, then reconstructed and rededicated on Remembrance Day 2002. Tapper's Guildford war memorial was unveiled on 23 April 1922, with Prime Minister Hughes attending the ceremony.45
Interestingly, the Guildford chapel barely rates a mention in any of the English texts which comment on Tapper's life and work, which is understandable given its distance from the architectural epicentre of the UK. However, in Australia the Guildford chapel has been recognized as something quite special. Brian Andrews, in his survey of Gothic Revival architecture in Australia, stated:
Guildford Grammar School Chapel is, in its design and furnishing, the one complete and superlative example of the last phase of English ecclesiastical Gothic Revival work, and arguably the best piece of Edwardian Gothic, in Australia.46
In the wider context of Tapper's oeuvre, the Guildford chapel is obviously one of his finest designs. It was built without compromise and has been well maintained, in contrast to some of his English buildings which were half-built, allowed to deteriorate, or have been demolished, or had their settings altered. It is fair to say that the Guildford chapel is now one of only three or four buildings which still clearly express Tapper's vision and style, and is arguably his best surviving church anywhere in the world, which gives it international heritage significance.
39 Letter, Tapper to Henn (6 September, 1912. He even arranged for the donated altar cross from Mrs Shackleton, cousin of Mr Oliverson, to be re-constituted, as he did not approve of its design. Tapper had Henn return the altar cross to England for Bainbridge Reynolds to work on.

Kate Middleton shows new photos of Charlotte
Oh so sweet!
Thorsten trederon 11/30/2015 | 14:24
Almost seven months have passed since Kate Middleton gave birth to her second child with little Charlotte. But while everyone would rather have new snapshots of the little princess presented to them every day, her parents try to keep public excitement away from their baby for as long as possible. Of course, Kate Middleton and Prince William also understand the great interest that their daughter arouses, which is why they have now published two new photos of their sun …
Fans of British royalty have been waiting for these images for a long time: After Kate Middleton and Prince William kept their daughter Charlotte out of the public eye as much as possible after the christening in July, the proud parents presented two new photos of the sweet princess, the young mother of two, yesterday Sunday. he recently shot himself. "The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are delighted to share two new photos of Princess Charlotte with the public. They were taken by the Duchess at her home in Norfolk in early November, "commented the images on the royal family's Facebook account on behalf of Kate Middleton and Prince William.
Thus, the dream royal couple managed without a professional photographer for the latest images of their little darling. Instead, Kate Middleton took the camera and settled her daughter so sweetly in a green plaid armchair that images don't have to be hidden behind professional photos. Followers of the British royal family seem to see it like this: almost 70,000 Facebook users have already shared the recordings made by Kate Middleton.
Kate Middleton thanks her followers
With the publication of the images, Kate Middleton and Prince William wanted to give their fans a very special gift, apparently just in time for the beginning of Advent. After all, even more than six months after birth, many people still share the happiness of their family, and young parents let it be felt too. "The Duke and Duchess continue to receive moving messages from around the world for Princess Charlotte. They hope that everyone will like these adorable photos as much as they do, "explained the palace on behalf of Kate Middleton.
We can't get enough of the new Princess Charlotte recordings. Kate Middleton and Prince William can be really proud of their cute daughter …

Fairbrother Geotechnical Engineering offers a range of solutions for lateral support. We offer design and construct services as well as contsruct only services for those projects that have been designed by the client.
This solution is typically used to support basement excavations or existing unstable slopes and provides for an in-situ solution of reinforced earth. The soil nails are drilled on a close grid and this allows for the soil mass to act as a homogenous unit. The grid of nails is then bound together with a layer of reinforced shotcrete.
This technique can be offered as either a temporary or permanent solution and is very economical to install in the right circumstances.
A very cost effective solution to slope stabilisation and basement excavation.
Suited to any shape of excavation and can easily accommodate multiple benches.
Equipment is small and lightweight..
Not suited to basement excavations that have large surcharge loads close to the excavation.
Not suited to excavations below the water table.
The tensioned anchor is used most commonly for lateral support to deep excavations with high surcharge loads and is often incorporated into piled retaining walls. The tension anchor can also be used to tie back large structures spanning deep seated failures and to resist uplift forces.
The tensioned anchor can be offered as either a temporary solution or as a permanent anchor with a lifespan of up to 120 years.
It can be used in almost any ground conditions if effective pressure grouting procedures are followed.
The tensioning of the anchor limits ground movements in basements and can be adapted to accommodate the surcharge loads.
Can be used to support deep seated failures.
Can be designed for a 120 year lifespan.
Long term anchors need to be checked regularly during its working life.
The concrete soldier pile is also used for lateral support systems. It can be used to create either as a cantilever wall or can be tied back using anchors or can be braced... The soldier pile can also be used to carry the vertical load of a building structure and is normally incorporated into the new structure as permanent works.
The piles can be used to carry vertical loads.
The wall can be incorporated into the permanent structure.
Corrosion protection is not required.
The system is very adaptable and can accommodate almost any conditions.
The system can encroach on permanent works.
This system is generally used in sandy horizons below the water table and is often used as temporary works for trenches or pits. Pits can be constructed to depths of 8m in sands and provide for a very safe and effective temporary lateral support.
The pits are constructed by first driving the soldier piles in and around the perimeter of the pit with a piling rig. A horizontal whaler is then welded around the inside of the soldier piles joining all of the piles together. Excavation of the pit commences and 6m x 3m Timber panels are cut and fitted between each soldier pile and then pushed down as the ground is removed from the inside of the pit.
Whalers are placed between 2.5m to 3m intervals horizontally as the excavation proceeds.
This method is repeated until final depth is reached.
This method is quick and does not require sophisticated equipment to construct the pit.
It is ideally suited for pits in soft sands.
Some of the material can be reused.
If there is a high water table then dewatering must be done before the excavation proceeds.
Not suited to lateral support that has surrounding infrastructure in close proximity to the pit as settlement does occur during construction.

'Don't scrimp on change management', says CIO who is rolling out Windows 10 at law firm Linklaters.
"Windows 10 is much easier to use straight out of the box. But it isn't perfect -- you still need some bright people to help your business make the most out of the system."
Law firm Linklaters CIO Matt Peers is rolling out Microsoft's Windows 10 operating system to staff, embarking on a programme to give all fee-earning staff members the choice of either a Windows 10-based laptop or tablet.
The firm is now well down the path with Windows 10, yet Peers also recognises other CIOs will face a number of challenges. "You have to show people how to use this operating system in order to help them get the most out of it," he says.
So how should businesses get the most out of Windows 10?
"Embrace it -- but don't scrimp on change management, especially if you're operating in an environment where people are not used to the modern Windows interface," he says.
Peers said the latest iteration of the Start menu creates a sense of familiarity for many users. Some people, however, can still struggle to get accustomed to the user interface in Windows 10, particularly when it comes to the display of applications as tiles.
CIO Matt Peers: "I would love to get to a situation where there's an update once a week that takes five minutes. My belief is people will accept that."
"We're managing change for those who are struggling," he says. "The challenges you see typically arise during the first couple of days. The issues are often related to standard things, such as the setting up of a printer in the office or at home."
Peers and his IT team go to great lengths to ensure the move to a new operating is as painless as possible. "We tell users the change is coming, we talk about what the change is going to mean and then, at the point the system goes live, we give people a day-one guide," he says.
This guide includes a series of 20 best practice steps for users looking to make the most of Windows 10. The firm also has specialists who walk around the office and check in with employees who are using Windows 10 for the first time.
"They have a tick list to show they've visited each user -- and they will visit each individual twice during their first day, once at the start of the day and later in the afternoon," says Peers.
User assistance does not stop at the end of the launch day. Peers recently turned an unused catering office in the firm's London office into an IT shop. Users can now visit the shop and chat with IT about their technology challenges.
"People can go to the shop to receive training, get new kit, or talk about the problems they might be having with a piece of software," he says. "The shop doesn't replace the traditional service desk but it is a very useful way to help people interact with the technology team."
A long-term programme of user surveys and online guides complements the rollout of Windows 10. The firm's corporate-supplied Windows 10 devices, for example, include a specially created ebook that provides help and advice around key operating system features.
The rollout has been well received, yet Peers says further polish would help. He says Microsoft has only recently made it possible for businesses to pre-populate each version of Windows 10 with bespoke tiles. The aim here is give users immediate access to their most important and relevant applications.
"Even now, it's difficult to create links to web-based services through those tiles -- you have to do everything manually," he says. "Windows 10 is much easier to use straight out of the box. But it isn't perfect -- you still need some bright people to help your business make the most out of the system."
Updates provide another key challenge. Peers implemented Windows 10 on the promise that the operating system would help promote simple, incremental updates. However, updates remain a time-intensive process. Peers points in particular to the recent Anniversary Update.
"These updates are very invasive to the working day," he says. "A lawyer that has to finish a document, but is delayed by an update, is going to become intensely frustrated. Some updates can take 45 minutes and that's going to make people scream and shout."
Peers says the firm is able to push most updates to the background. A countdown clock tells people when the update will begin. However, many users -- either knowingly or unknowingly -- ignore the countdown clock.
"They're busy people," he says. "Even if the last big update was six months ago, people remember it and feel like it was sooner. I would love to get to a situation where there's an update once a week that takes five minutes. My belief is people will accept that."
The good news, says Peers, is that the IT team is keen on many of the elements within Windows 10. "We like the fact that there's improved tools for controlling and maintaining the devices, and for getting visibility about which devices have received patches," he says. "Those features give us a dimension that we've struggled to get in the past."
From a user perspective, Peers also points to a number of positives. "People like the support for touchscreen," he says. "We're now deploying a lot more touchscreen devices and services than we were in the past."
The firm is promoting the use of OneNote as a means for collaboration. People from different departments across the business are benefitting from being able to take meeting notes and share them with colleagues securely.
"In the past, notes would have been written in a book that was stored on a shelf and discovery became a time-intensive activity," he says. "Now, people can use a stylus, convert the note to text and create information that is readily searchable. Windows 10 and its associated applications are helping to boost connectivity."
Peers recognises that some departments in the firm have not been as keen to embrace these new services. The aim, he says, is to take best practice evidence and use that information to sell the benefits to other areas of the organisation. "The key to success is to get people to try new things," says Peers.

Anne Elisabeth was born in a little village outside Oslo, Norway, in 1949. She started drawing and painting at young age. Family and a 30 year long career in the world of computers from the '70s put the brushes in a drawer until 1998. After she retired, painting has become her new life. She has attended exhibitions both in Norway, France, China, Austria and Italy. She strives to visualize the unknown and indefinite of nature and universe which for her is a unity.
After living a few years in France she moved back to Norway and is now living in Byglandsfjord, a little community in one of Norway1s beatuiful vallies, Setesdal. Beside painting, she is working with painting as a therapy and self expression.
It was the Hubble teamet at NASA that showed me the beauty, the colors, and infinity of our Universe.
When you are drawn to the unknown you are also very often enchanted by gazing into the sky at night for seeking stars and planets, observing the light from the moon turning to a shean of colours when clouds passes by. The star constellations never look the same, the darkness is always different, your day has been different, your mind is in a different mood. What ever problems your day have brought you that needs to be resolved, diminishes from your mind and into the night. In moments like this your soul are open for the brief Journey all on its own if you let it. It is your call.
Wether it is day or night, clouds constantly turn into different shapes and textures. Their speed and directions is following the winds.
Suddenly some clouds swiftly «grab each others tails» and form an eye. The edges dissapears out of sight while the moonlight floods over them and creates some extrordinary colour palettes. Such a particular moment has inspired the creation of «The Dragon Travellers». A closer look will not only suggest dragons, but also other animals when looking closely. How many is up to each of you. That is one of the joys of «travelling».

Emory swimmer trains for 2016 Olympic Trials
By Laura Douglas-Brown | Emory Report | Oct. 22, 2015
Emory student Andrew Wilson, a senior majoring in physics and applied math, has qualified for the 2016 U.S. Olympic Trials in both the 100 and 200 breaststroke.

As students hit the books this fall, Emory swimmer Andrew Wilson is hitting the pool full time. Wilson, a senior majoring in physics and applied math, is taking a year off from his studies to prepare for his chance at competing in the 2016 Summer Olympics.
"I just thought that if I had extra time to focus on swimming without the demands that being a student at a top university entails, I could be better at Olympic Trials next summer," Wilson explains. "Of course, I plan to return to Emory."
Earlier this year, Wilson qualified for the 2016 U.S. Olympic Trials in both the 100 and 200 breaststroke. In August, he stunned the swimming world when he won the national championship in the 100-meter breaststroke and placed third in the 200-meter breaststroke at the 2015 Phillips 66 USA Swimming National Championships, posting times that would have qualified for the U.S. team in the 2012 Olympics and made him the sixth fastest American ever.
Swimming World Magazine dubbed him "the breakout breaststroke star of Nationals," and his times earned him a spot on the 2015-16 U.S. Swimming National Team, announced in September.
"I was extremely happy with the result, but ultimately my goal is to make the U.S. team for Rio next summer, so most of all I'm just happy with how it sets me up heading into the Olympic year and Olympic Trials," Wilson says.
Making the U.S. Swimming National Team for this year "is something I've wanted for as long as I can remember," he says. "It's just an honor to be able to represent the U.S. doing something I love."
The Olympic Trials, set for June 26 through July 3 in Omaha, Nebraska, will determine who represents Team USA in the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
So until then, Wilson is training with Longhorn Aquatics at the University of Texas at Austin, an NCAA Division I program, where he swam during the summer since NCAA Division III rules prevent athletes from training with their school coaches outside of the season.
"A typical day for me now is pretty simple," he says, describing mornings that begin at 5:15 a.m., with his first swim practice starting at 6 a.m. After a nap, he returns to practice in the afternoon with an hour or more of cardio and weight-training, followed by two more hours in the pool.
"After that I come back home and cook dinner, then usually head to bed around 9:15, and then start all over," he says.
He's also finding time to stay in touch with his Emory teammates, whom he hopes to rejoin next year. He came back to Atlanta to visit at the beginning of the semester, and watches Emory swim meets online.
"The plan is just to take the 2015-16 school year off, and then return in fall 2016 to finish my degree and last year of NCAA eligibility with Emory," he says.
Wilson praises Emory's support for his Olympic dreams, and Emory Swimming & Diving Coach Jon Howell says the Eagles are cheering him on and will be happy to welcome him back.
"Of course we can't know how this will go for him, but there is no one I know out there right now at his level who is still getting better at the rate he is getting better," says Howell, who talks with Wilson regularly and will help support him at upcoming meets.
Expanding what is possible
Andrew Wilson celebrates after winning the NCAA Division III Championship for the 200 individual medley.
Wilson and Howell both acknowledge that he was not an elite swimmer when he came to Emory. "Quite honestly he was not one of our top prospects, but I kept hearing good things about him," Howell says. "He really developed when he was here."
Howell, also named to the prestigious roster of U.S. National Team Coaches, notes Wilson's motivation to "go above and beyond" as a key factor in his success.
"It's really a combination of his determination, work ethic and drive, along with the fact that physically he has really developed over the last three years," Howell says. "It's the perfect storm — he was waiting to become great and just needed the opportunity to bring it forward."
As a junior, Wilson delivered a historic performance at the Division III National Championships. He was crowned an NCAA Champion in the 100 and 200 Breast as well as the 200 IM and set NCAA records in all three events. He was named the NCAA Division III Swimmer of the Year, the United Athletic Association (UAA) Swimmer of the Year and the CoSIDA Academic All-American of the Year for Division III At-Large for his performance.
And while Emory's swim team misses having him alongside them this season, he continues to have an impact, Howell notes.
"Although he is not competing and putting points on the board, he expands what is possible," Howell says. "He is not just a great athlete; he is a wonderful model for what can happen at a Division III school like Emory."
