Egyptian Art Lessons - Architecture
Architecture of Ancient Egypt
The Egyptians stopped using the pyramids for burial tombs because, in spite of good precautions, they continued to be vulnerable to robbers. During the New Kingdom, at the height of Egyptian power, the pharaohs began to build underground tombs in the Valley of the Kings. It was in the Valley of the Kings where the tomb of King Tut was found by Carter in the early 1900's. The importance of the tomb was that it was the first tomb, which was not looted by grave robbers. It survived, nearly untouched, because of it was buried by a collapsed temple.
During the New Kingdom the large temples of Hatshepsut, Luxor, and Karnak were built in or near Thebes. Most of the Egyptian temples have a very heavy look to them with very large columns which are relatively close to each other. The kind of stone the Egyptians used was not able to hold heavy weight like the marble used in Greece and Rome. Because of this, the spans between supporting columns had to be short to support the weights of the roofs.

There are different issues to take into account when deciding the correct moment to sue a possible infringer. One of these elements is the status of the patent or patent application which is to be used.
This paper tries to explain the possibility and effects of suing an infringer at the different stages of prosecution for a European patent or patent application, i.e., before publication, after publication but before grant and after grant.
It is to be considered that the infringement of a European patent or patent application is dealt by national law, although the infringement procedure started in one state may have effects in other states by means of the European Execution Treaty.
The rights conferred by the EP application are effective from the moment of its publication.1 However, the applicant could have interest in invoking his rights before the publication (a warning to a possible infringer), since in some countries the communication of the existence of the application to a possible infringer establishes liability for damages (e.g. Spain2).
However, invoking the rights of the application before publication opens the possibility for the alleged infringer to inspect the files of such application without the consent of the applicant.3 The applicant is informed of the identity of the person making the request to inspect files and the decision is only taken once the applicant has been heard. Normally, until the EP application is published, the files can only be inspected with the consent of the applicant.
Since the patent application is published in English, French or German, it is possible that the language of publication is not the official language of a contracting state of the EPC. In those cases, it is necessary that a translation of the claims into the official language of that state is made available to the public or communicated to the alleged infringer.
According to the last edition of the National Law relating to the EPC (15th Edition), all Contracting States except Malta and Switzerland require a translation into one of its official languages.
National judges will not normally pursue a case solely on provisional protection. However, in most states the provisional protection establishes a liability for damages.
Using a patent application can draw attention to the existence of the same and allow the potential infringer to attack the validity of application before the EPO. At this stage, the infringer can file third party observations.6 Third party observations can be filed by any person and must contain a statement (and evidence) against the patentability of the invention (i.e., patentable inventions, exceptions to patentability, novelty, inventive step, industrial application). Third party observations must be taken into account by the EPO as long as the proceedings before the EPO are still pending.
Most countries recognize in their law that infringement occurs when a third party, without consent of the proprietor, makes, sells, offers for sale, uses or imports a product which is covered by the scope of the claims, or even keeps it ready for sale.
Additionally, the opposition period starts after publication of the mention of grant.9 During this period, an opponent can oppose the grant of the patent on the basis of the opposition grounds (i.e., the patent does not meet the patentability requirements, it extends beyond the scope as originally filed or it has a lack of sufficient disclosure). The opposition is held at the EPO (even if the patent has already been validated in the different Contracting States) by the Opposition Division, therefore, it allows to revoke the patent with one single procedure.
If the patent proprietor chooses to sue the infringer during the opposition period, he opens the possibility that said infringer files a notice of opposition to try to revoke the patent used against him.
The opposition period expires nine months from publication of the mention of the grant of the EP patent.10 However, even if the opposition period has lapsed, a third party can file a notice of intervention11 and become a party in the opposition proceedings and therefore try to revoke the patent in case opposition proceedings are pending. Notice of intervention can be filed by an assumed infringer of the patent and he must prove that proceedings of infringement have been instituted against him or that the proprietor of the patent has requested him to cease alleged infringement of the patent and that he has instituted proceedings for a court ruling that he is not infringing the patent.
Therefore, suing an infringer after grant but within the opposition period, or even later if opposition proceedings are running, opens the possibility for the infringer to try to revoke the patent in central proceedings (before EPO).
In summary, it is possible to start infringement proceedings at different stages of prosecution, not only after grant, but the patent owner should be aware that invoking his rights according an European patent or patent application gives the alleged infringer some possibilities, depending on the prosecution stage, to try to invalidate or revoke the patent used against him. On the other hand, a party which has been warned or accused of infringement should know that possible strategies depend on the prosecution stage of the patent or patent application.

Damages in accordance with the general rules for compensation of damage.

Q: Django-compressor and template tags in Django Recently I have tried Django-Compressor. It's awesome and i like it too much, but i am having some troubles with offline compression (COMPRESS_OFFLINE = True) and template tags.
I have {{ django_vars }} and {% django_tags %} inside my JS code and i guess Google Clousure compiler (the filter what i'm using with Django-Compressor) doesn't know to identify them. In fact, I think Django template structures like {% if something %} are deleted.
How can i do to keep all this template vars/tags in my code JS after compressing?
Thanks mates.
Edit:
Finally, i discovered all problems that i got using COMPRESS_OFFLINE, they all occurred due to a bug. They were not about Django syntax inside of JS code. The bug always appeared when you tried to compress JS code inside of a file .html, not a external JS. It failed with all parsers and all compilers/compressors.
Now, although i like more django-compressor than django-pipeline, i'm using this last one. At this moment, no problem reported with compression.
Thanks to all who tried to help me.

A: Have you tried that? JS compiler of Django Compressor gets into work AFTER template nodes are rendered, IMO. Thus the {{ django_vars }} or {% django_tags %} are already replaced by their outputs in templates before being compressed.
If {{ django_vars }} or {% django_tags %} are changed per-view/template. It can not be compress to one piece of code. You'd better to move those parts from main JS code blocks to  JS block and compress it separately.

28-year-old woman comes to the clinic at 29 weeks gestation complaining of headaches and abdominal pain. She states that these symptoms began 5 days ago and have been worsening. The patient's vitals are notable for a blood pressure of 175/95 mmHg. On physical exam pain is elicited upon palpation of all 4 quadrants, in particular the right upper quadrant. A urine dipstick demonstrates 3+ protein. The patient is admitted to the hospital and started on IV magnesium sulphate and labetalol. Five hours after this treatment has begun she has a seizure.
DISCUSSION: The patient is presenting with classic signs and symptoms of severe preeclampsia with end-organ damage, which requires immediate delivery as treatment.
Severe preeclampsia (BP > 160/110 and 3-4+ urine dipstick protein) with evidence of end-organ damage, including headache, epigastric pain, disseminated intravascular coagulation, oliguria, or pulmonary edema, is an obstetrical emergency that is managed by delivery regardless of gestation age. If no end-organ damage is present, it is possible to monitor the patient in an ICU setting until 32 weeks gestation, when delivery is indicated regardless of end-organ damage. IV magnesium sulfate may be given for seizure prophylaxis. The onset of preeclampsia occurs from 20 weeks gestation to 6 weeks postpartum. If symptoms occur before 20 weeks, consider a molar pregnancy as a cause of hypertension.
Key steps in the management of all types of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. Risk factors include preexisting hypertension, nulliparity, maternal age of < 20 years or >35 years, diabetes, chronic renal disease, or autoimmune disorders.
Aloizos et al. discuss the management of pre-eclampsia. Delivery is the only definitive treatment for pre-eclampsia/HELLP syndrome. Delivery is indicated after 35 gestational weeks or the fetal and/or maternal conditions deteriorate. Furthermore, vaginal delivery is preferred.
The patient has marked hyperglycemia and metabolic acidosis. The diagnosis of newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes presenting with DKA should be considered.
· Cause: severe insulin deficiency. Cell begin to shift to lipolysis, which results in the creation of ketone bodies. This causes acidemia (Anion gap metabolic acidosis). Often precipitated by inflammatory process, medication non-compliance, illicit drug use.
Dx: Clinical, most important labs are fingerstick glucose, UA+dipstick, CMP, CBC, ABGs, cultures, also should get an EKG, serum level of hydroxybutyrate.
UA: dipstick will be highly positive for glucose, ketones, UA will confirm this. *Urine culture should be performed.
CMP: Hyperkalemia, Hyponatremia, low bicarbonate, High anion gap suggesting the unfavorable anion gap metabolic acidosis.
Goals in therapy are to replenish depleted fluid volume and to replace insulin, keeping a keen eye on the serum electrolytes.
· Correction of fluid loss with intravenous fluids. IVF, in adults, rapid infusion of 1L of 0.9% NS (e.g. over 30 min), repeat bolus as necessary to prevent shock.
· Correction of hyperglycemia with insulin In newly diagnosed patients with type 1 diabetes, a careful estimate of the long-acting insulin dose should be considered. Starting with smaller doses generally is recommended to avoid hypoglycemia. (SC long-acting insulin (eg, insulin glargine, Detemir) should be initiated at the dose that was used prior to the manifestation of DKA). Insulin infusion can be discontinued 30 minutes later. If the patient is still nauseated and cannot eat, dextrose infusion should be continued and regular or ultra–short-acting insulin should be administered SC every 4 hours, according to blood glucose level, while trying to maintain blood glucose values at 100-180 mg/dL.
· Correction of acid-base balance. If pH < 7.1 and/or cardiac instability present, then give bicarb.
May discharge when pt. can take daily insulin regimen and the underlying cause is resolved.
Must emphasize the importance of adhering to a strict insulin regimen.

Action Space
Company name: Action Space
Founders: Mary Turner, Ken Turner, Alan Nisbet
Reason: To change the role of the artist in society, to change the way arts related to society and the way society related to arts, and to champion the role of creative experience in the transformation of society and the education system.
Current status: Disbanded in 1981, reformed as Action Space Mobile in 1981 and is still operating under this name. In Camden another offshoot Action Space London works to engage people with learning disabilities with the visual arts.
Area of work: Combined and visual arts in the community
Policy: Action Space formed at a time when political and social changes were taking place across the country. Action Space was concerned with a number of relatable issues: the commodification of the arts controlled by dealers and investors; the development of high-rise housing estates that they believed would become the ghettos for an under-class; the impact of redevelopment on communities; the lack of spontaneity and community in social life; and the lack of child-centered education and play-space. A period of rapid expansion between 1968 and 1972 led Action Space to define its aims and objectives more clearly: Annual Report Extract.
Structure: Action Space: collective; collective management (1968-1981). Action Space Mobile: Artistic Director-led collective (1981-present)
Based: Action Space, (1968-1983); Piano Factory on Harmood Street in Camden (1971-1973); Institute of Contemporary Arts (1974-1975); Drill Hall on Chenies Street in Camden (1975-1981). Action Space Mobile, Sheffield (1983-1990); Barnsley (1990-present day).
Funding: Arts Council of Great Britain, Inner London Education Authority, the London Boroughs of Tower Hamlets, Westminster, and Camden. They also benefited from many private donations from industry and individuals, of money, materials, and facilities including: Commercial Plastics, Camden Arts Centre, Inter-Action, Kleenex Kimberly Clarke and David Hockney.
Performance venues: Action Space built their own venues, large-scale inflatable structures to be situated in public spaces, with a view to encouraging public participation in combined arts activities. They utilised derelict buildings, festivals, schools, abandoned lots, shopping centres, galleries, parks and streets during their work with young people and adults. Action Space also developed and maintained their own multi-purpose arts venues in Camden, namely the old Piano Factory on Harmood Street and Drill Hall on Chenies Street.
Audiences: Wide-ranging – from children to adults and people with disabilities through to artists and the general public. Action Space audiences covered a wide demographic.

In early publicity materials, Action Space described themselves as: 'An association of artists working in the community, through education and play, developing art forms relevant to a wider public. We use pneumatic, rigid and flexible tent structures, light, sound, movement and drama to create environmental events for children and adults alike.' (Action Space pamphlet, 1970).
Their first experience of building a structure of this kind for public usage was at The City of London Festival organised by Joan Littlewood in 1968. Ken Turner built a walk-through structure entitled Plastic Garden for inclusion in Littlewood's Bubble City – a participatory adult playground to be constructed in a shopping precinct. Whilst the structure did not withstand daily attacks from youths in the surrounding Wapping area, the experience spurred Action Space to engage with the young people of Wapping the following summer. They invited artists working in the nearby semi-derelict St Katherine's Dock studios to join them and embarked upon a three-week summer project in Wapping.
In 1970, Action Space experimented with a movement piece using sticks and Laban techniques, led by Pauline Saul, in a structured environment at a children's playday in Finsbury Park. The development of other work in this year progressed through performances at festivals and playsites. In the summer they returned to Wapping for another residency and afterwards back to Camden where they continued working with local youths in Jo Benjamin's Community Play Centres and Arts Lab. They also received some funding to build their first large airhouse, a 20ft cube in orange and green bands built by Richard Harper that 'dazzled the eyes from the inside like Op Art' (p42. Action Space Extended). Around this time there were other more politically motivated companies who championed the view that 'everyone was an artist', in contrast to this Action Space sought to differentiate between 'the creativity of every person and the continuing demands that the practice of an artist has to sustain(p.11. Action Space Extended). Artists were going to stimulate creativity not become redundant as far as Action Space were concerned.
In 1971, they began touring their work with inflatable structures extensively at festivals with support from the Arts Council's new initiative Blow Up '71. They travelled with a large pneumatic structure comprised of 'separate air-houses and tubular corridors of various heights, each house containing a different physical stimulus' (p43. Action Space Extended). They began trailing this experimental work at the Serpentine Gallery in London (which became an annual event for the company).
In 1972, works were completed at their Harmood Street base and the company utilised the space as a store for their structures and a studio for rehearsals. Many other groups in the area were also using the space for £1 per session. In 1973 they launched their new project Dr Pneuman's Rocket at the Serpentine Gallery, an inflatable rocket structure accompanied by performances that they later took on tour throughout the country.
In 1974, Camden Council had moved Action Space to the ICA (Institute of Contemporary Arts) where they developed a Soft Room (a gallery space with pneumatic walls and floor) offering a programme of drama, music and movement. Some company members had branched off to try out an experimental project at Groundwell Farm in Swindon. The remaining company members were using street performance as a means to engage with a wider adult public. This was also the year that Action Space began its long commitment to working with people with disabilities. Their work in this area was a growth point for the company and extended into special educational needs schools and special needs adventure playgrounds. Around this time their practice was moving closer to a form of devised theatre; the majority believed this form afforded players a greater awareness of the environment, audience involvement and a unity with the structures. (pp.95-98. Action Space Extended)
In 1975, they moved to Drill Hall on Chenies Street where tensions mounted under the pressure of developing this new space with little funding and it eventually impacted upon the artists, leading to an eventual fragmentation of artistic practices. Later in 1976, they opened the doors to the Drill Hall with a cafe, studios and theatre spaces that could be transformed into Soft Rooms, a dance studio, a video room, a sound studio and a print room. They continued their work with people with special needs in hospitals, special schools and community festivals. In 1977, they built structures to use on water; during their Devon tour they used the sea as a venue and in London they used the canals and they even pushed their inflatable bubble across the River Avon to meet the Queen during her visit to Stratford. This was also the year they converted an old lifeboat to run a week-long programme of performances and events for four people from a long-stay hospital.
By 1978, over 300 people were using the Drill Hall for workshops, performances and rehearsals or to eat in the cafe. When Action Space Mobile formed in 1981, the company were back on the road embarking upon a summer tour, which included three-week residencies and events in both indoor and outdoor venues. They performed across Northern England and by 1982 had moved their base to Sheffield, where they performed and ran workshops extensively until they relocated to Barnsley in 1990.
For more Action Space work details open here.
Mary Turner: 'It is worthwhile to look back at the dreams and ambitions that fired the start of the company and see where it has led us. What was an experimental way for artists to work in the beginning is now an accepted career choice and has training programmes to go with it. We said we wanted artists to work with the community on a non-star basis where everyone was paid equally a living wage. We wanted artists to escape from the stardom of high prices led by dealers and investors. This has to some degree, come about and we earn a living, are paid equally if inadequately, but in return often have to work on projects that fulfill other's agendas. All too often it is following the government's or funders' criteria rather than challenging the development of our society.' (p281., Turner. Action Space Extended)
'This structure served as an imaginative framework for play…' (Hackney Gazette 1969)
'Action Space's new show Donkey is a most affecting and effective example of surrealist, impressionistic performance art.' (Time Out, 23rd March 1978)
'If revolution really is the festival of the oppressed, the Drill Hall must be London's most insurrectionary venue' (Time Out 1978)

Reason for disbanding and reorganisation: Action Space ceased trading in 1980 when the Thatcher regime cut vital funding to the company. The financial impact of this, along with administrative pressures associated with running a large company with open policies, forced the company to close the Drill Hall to the public in 1980. In 1981, the nine remaining members of Action Space decided to stay on in Drill Hall, rent and rate free from Camden Council, and split the activities they offered into three companies: the Drill Hall reopened as a venue; Action Space (London Events) was formed to direct their London-based children's and disability work; and Action Space Mobile for their touring performances and residences. Action Space (London Events) and Action Space Mobile are currently trading under the rubric of Action Space Ltd. The Drill Hall finally closed and was taken over by RADA in 2013.

A terrific idea, long overdue. How vital and essential it is to understand the past if we are to make sense of the present.~Max Stafford- Clark


Sølve Sundsbø is a superstar snapper. He not only snaps the modern equivalent of supermodels but is, in fact, a star amongst contemporary photogs today.
I adore his composition, the sense of curiosity in his photographs and of course, his trademark use of colour.
I thought the Morning Beauty shoot was an interesting way to showcase eye colour – against the starkness of Anja Rubik's pale skin and blonde hair.
The shapes created by collarbones, hands, jawlines and shadows remind me of Brancusi sculptures. Beautiful, indeed.

Richmond and Leyburn Embroiderers' Guild
Workshop 4 July 2019
What a lovely afternoon we spent at Joan's Casalguidi workshop, plenty of chat and laughter but lots of concentration and hard work, looking forward to finishing the project on 18 July.
Meeting 20 June 2019
Our afternoon speaker was Joanna O'Neill with her talk entitled Bite-size. Joanna is a long-time member of both the Embroiderers' Guild and the Quilters' Guild of the British Isles (QGBI), also a QGBI Quilt Judge. Regularly writing articles for embroidery and quilting magazines. Joanna is also a published fiction writer. Living in the beautiful Northumberland moors Joanna must take inspiration from her surroundings
In 2007 the QGBI's Contemporary Quilt Group invited members to commit to making an A4 size journal quilt, each month for the year with a running theme, members are still producing wonderful work. The quilts can be small art works or simply creative play; an experiment into new techniques and materials or trials for a planned largescale work. Journal Quilts can use traditional techniques such as piecing or needleturn appliqué but are also a fun way to explore surface decoration like fabric paints, printing and bonded appliqué, or the OTT world of beads and buttons, sequins and shisha. Joanna showed us her collection of the quilts she has produced explaining the themes and techniques used. The beauty of these quilts is they are easy to handle and store.
RHS Harlow Carr 19 June 2019
We visited RHS Harlow Carr to view the three wall hangings we stitched which were on display for the flower show, they looked amazing and were very well received with lots of lovely appreciative entries in the comments book.
Meeting 16 May 2019
Our competition today was "New Work from Old", there were 17 entries, many of which will go on to the Regional Day competition on Saturday.
Members voted and the winners were:
1st Sue V
2nd Heather W
3rd Elaine S
Many thanks to Sue V for organising the competition and congratulations on winning with her book of wedding memories.
Also on display our branch entries for the Regional Day Branch Challenge "Wallpaper for the Web"
Our afternoon speaker was Pat Ashton-Smith making a very welcome return visit, her subject today was "The Bayeux Tapestry – An Embroiderer's Perspective". Pat lives in the Allendale Valley in Northumberland. For almost 20 years Pat has been teaching and lecturing to a wide variety of groups including teaching City & Guilds Creative Embroidery courses and is a member of the Embroiderers' Guild, the Quilters' Guild of the British Isles and the North-East exhibiting group Twyne.
Historians believe the tapestry was stitched in the south east of England by women between 1066 and 1082 and was more than likely commissioned by Bishop Odo of Bayeux. It is 232 feet long and of varying depths of around 20 inches, stitched on 9 pieces of 50 threads to the inch linen, using 45 kilos of wool in eight colours and remarkably only using 3 different stitches: outline, stem and laidwork. Comprising of 75 scenes depicting 623 people (only three of whom are women), 202 horses, 55 dogs, 505 other animals, 37 buildings, 41 boats and 49 trees. The tapestry survived the French Revolution and both World Wars and is now housed in its own specially built museum in Bayeux. It is thought that the final scene is missing, Jan Messent was commissioned to design and create a final scene which took 1700 hours over 18 months to complete. Jan's panel is now hanging in the atrium of the James Cook Memorial Teaching Hospital in Middlesbrough.
Meeting 18 April 2019
After a morning stitching Sue gave her usual updates followed by a rendering of Happy Birthday and gifts to her from all the members in special recognition of all her hard work in arranging the Anniversary celebration.
Our speaker was Suzanne Herbert with her talk a bag for every occasion.
Suzanne gave a very informative and amusing talk about how she designs and makes handbags. Suzanne started her bag making by attended Emma Redfern's workshops in Cumbria to learn the basics. Suzanne tests designs for Lisa Lam before the kits go into production as not all designs work in practice. Suzanne also designs and makes her own "Sherbert Bags – Something Special" from a wide variety of fabrics and designs, a favourite is Harris Tweed which she purchases direct from the weavers on Harris.
Giving us many tips on how to make bags, all her bags are interfaced with various products including iron on vilene, padded calico, compressed fleece and plastic grid for inside the bag when attaching feet. Suzanne explained how to glue metal clasps to the material using the essential gutermann textile glue leaving the glue to prove for four minutes then pushing the material into the frame.
I am sure many of us feel we can tackle making our own bags or perhaps just enjoy Suzanne's skill.
Anniversary Day 4 April 2019
What a lovely day, we started the day with a stitch morning, some of us attending Joan's Caselguido stage 1 workshop, lots of concentration but plenty of chat too.
In the afternoon we congregated at Tennants for a celebration of 20 years of the Branch. Our founding Chairman Ann gave a talk on the history of the Branch accompanied by Barbie the sheep, one of the first joint projects, there were also archived items to be viewed, a record of the Branch. A beautiful cake was cut and a lovely high tea was consumed. Many thanks to Sue and her team for organising the day, to Val (oops senior moment when I wrote the original piece and said Maureen made the cake, apologies to Val) for the lovely cake and most of all to Ann without her forming the Branch none of this would have happened.
Meeting 7 March 2019
At the March meeting one of our own members, Jane Hare, shared her wide knowledge of printing using the natural elements around us. Her enthusiasm was infectious and we enjoyed the story of her journey into eco-printing, with all its pitfalls and successes – sometimes unexpected! There were lots of questions after Jane's talk and the opportunity to examine the beautiful results. We hope to hold a workshop with Jane next summer.
I am sorry I missed Jane's talk, Denise kindly wrote this piece for the blog. Jackie.

Our afternoon speaker was one of our members Melita Butterell with her talk
"Designing My Way Through Life"
Where can I start, a truly inspirational speaker. Melita studied at Wimbledon Art College then went on to Durham University to study architecture. As a member of the WI for many years Melita's passion for embroidery was fuelled by attending WI courses in embroidery and quilting etc which "got my creative juices flowing" entering and winning many national competitions and exhibiting her work in many venues throughout the country.
Melita is a member of the Fusion Textile Artists group and has undertaken many commissions include designing and embroidering Chasubles for the clergy on Lindisfarne, a farmland scene for the University Hospital of North Durham to name but a few. As an architect Melita has an eye for all design taking inspiration from her surroundings not using a sketch book but letting ideas evolve in her mind. As a farmer who kept ponies amongst her other animals, horses feature quite strongly in her work which usually contains some bling within the finished work which in latter years has developed a strong 3D element.
Her talk will encourage us all to design for ourselves and to quote Melita "There is inspiration everywhere, people do things and learn in different ways: DO WHAT YOU WANT TO DO – GO FOR IT"

Her published books include "Get Stuffed Shape, stuff and stitch", "Get Plastered plaster, print and stitch" details of how to purchase them can be found on Maggie's website http://www.stitch-print.co.uk .
Meeting 19 July 2018
Our afternoon speaker was Pat Ashton-Smith with her talk
"Love Letters from the Front – Embroidered Postcards from WW1.
Pat lives in the Allendale Valley in Northumberland. For almost 20 years Pat has been teaching and lecturing to a wide variety of groups including delivering City & Guilds Creative Embroidery courses and is a member of the Embroiderers' Guild, the Quilters' Guild of the British Isles and the North-East exhibiting group Twyne.
Pat told us of the origins of postcards which started roundabout 1869 in Austria, originally they were very utilitarian with just the name and address of the recipient on one side and the message on the other. In 1900 embroidered ones were introduce but the message had to be around the illustration or embroidery as only the address was allowed on the other side, in 1902 the divided back was introduced with space for the address and a message.
Postcards really became popular with the advent of the First World War when troops serving in France sent them home to loved ones. Many regiments had their own design The embroidery was onto silk then framed, produced on an industrial scale in factories using Schiffli machines but many were produced in French homes, hand embroidered or using a domestic version of the Schiffli machine.
EMBROIDERERS' GUILD
100 HEARTS EXHIBITIONS
Many of us have been busy stitching hearts for the project, see below for details of where to see them.
"Lest we Forget" are the poignant words spoken by a generation long ago. Those who fought in World War 1 are now fading memories to the generation who came after, and soon they too will be lost to us. Stories of comradeship, bravery, victories and setbacks were captured in the letters sent back to relatives eagerly waiting for news or told by those who returned. In conjunction with SSAFA, the Embroiderers' Guild is proud to be part of the commemoration of all those who took part in World War 1. Using cloth and thread as both a medium and metaphor, textile artists will interpret the stories as unique and sensitive images stitched onto hearts. The pieces will illustrate to a new generation the men and the animals that accompanied them; the uniforms worn and medals won; the regiments that fought together and the family members fondly remembered; the songs that kept their spirits high and the words they wrote to those back home. These will be unique and thoughtful exhibitions put together to fulfil the hope of a generation not to be forgotten.
100 Hearts is a different mixture of pieces at each venue. Exhibitions have been organised at –
Knit & Stitch, Alexandra Palace, London 11-14 October
Knit & Stitch Harrogate 22-25 November
NEC, Birmingham March 2019
Norwich Cathedral November 2018
Liverpool Cathedral 10 September – 7 October

Home Opinion Why Redknapp Is Wrong To Want Rangers And Celtic In The Premier...
Why Redknapp Is Wrong To Want Rangers And Celtic In The Premier League
Our esteemed manager Harry Redknapp has gone on record to declare that he'd like to see Rangers and Celtic in the Premier League.
I can't say that it's an idea that I've ever been that interested in, but not because of reasons of self-interest.
Anyone who doesn't think that Rangers and Celtic would be a success in the Premier League is delusional. It would undoubtedly take time, but they are massive clubs and once the money started rolling in, their squads would soon be transformed.
Look at Rangers in the late eighties/early nineties. They could offer top wages and had no problem in attracting the best English talent to Glasgow. With more money and the promise of playing in a top league like the EPL, there's really no limit on the quality of players that these clubs could attract.
With Spurs looking to break up the stranglehold that Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United have held over the Premier League, it might seem like the inclusion of the two Glasgow giants would only push us further down the pecking order.
I'm not so sure. Having more teams in the league that can compete financially with the Sky four, means that the best players are spread across a greater number of teams and could make things more competitive.
We've seen this with Manchester City this season. If they weren't in the market for top players, then Adebayor and Toure would still be at Arsenal, Tevez might have remained at United and Barry could have ended up at Liverpool. The top four would be even stronger than they are now, but instead it looks as if there might be six or seven teams in the hunt for Champions League football this season.
In terms of what it would mean financially, I'm not sure that Rangers and Celtic would add that much value. The Premier League is already a very attractive package for foreign broadcasters, though there probably would be a boost to the value of the domestic rights.
Both sides could always be guaranteed to sell out their away allocation for every game, which would boost attendances, though this is really more of an issue for the smaller Premier League clubs such as Bolton and Blackburn, rather than a team like Spurs who sell out every match.
So it makes some financial and footballing sense, but I'm still against the idea. What worries me is what will happen to the rest of the Scottish league. Without Rangers and Celtic, every other team in Scotland would be financially compromised.
In a scenario where the Scottish league remains as it stands, only without the Old Firm, the likes of Hibs, Aberdeen and Hearts would have more chance of qualifying for Europe, but would get far less domestic television money and attendances would be lower.
You could allow the remaining Scottish teams to be involved with possible promotion to the expanded Premier League of two divisions, but it's far more likely that the Scottish league would just be left to die a lingering death.
There are further implications. FIFA will begin to pressure the home nations to combine as a Great Britain team and if the move proves to be a success, who's to say that the top Portuguese teams won't follow suit and join La Liga?
Ultimately I think such a move will move the game further towards some sort of combined European league. This crackpot scheme is the brainchild of Bolton's Phil Gartside, but perhaps he should consider the likelihood that his team would be involved in a further breakaway. No one really wants them in the Premier League, so why would Barcelona and AC Milan want to play them?
All of this talk is driven by money, but the strength of football is the fact that it's a meritocracy. The way things currently exist, it is theoretically possible for any team to rise through the leagues and triumph in European competition. Once you start tampering with this system, to protect certain team's self-interests, then there's a danger of killing the goose that laid the golden egg.

Thousands of new parking spaces will be added to the parking zones in Prague 5, 6 and 8. There will also be more blue zones for residents, mixed purple zones, and orange zones only for visitors. The zones will become paid parking zones on 26 August. The pricing of paid parking will change as well.
"The reason we're expanding the zones is that the current ones have proven themselves useful. Praguers have confirmed that parking spaces have freed up for Prague citizens and are no longer being taken up by out-of-the-city drivers," claims vice-mayor Martin Slabý (from the political party ANO).
5776 parking spaces will be added. Most of them will be added in Prague 5 (2335 spaces) and Prague 8 (2314 spaces). Prague 6 will receive 1117 new paid parking spaces. "Reserved parking spaces are not included in the previously stated numbers," said the spokeswoman for TSK Praha Barboa Lišková.
In Prague 5, spaces will be added in the areas of Starý Barrandov, Malvazinky, Hřebenka and Motol. In Prague 6, parking will become paid in another part of Petřiny and Evropská třída all the way to Veleslavín. In Prague 8, it will be Střížkov, Horní Kobylisy and the Nad Ládvím area.
There will be more blue zones, which are only for residents, purple zones, which are both for visitors and residents, and orange zones, which are only for visitors. Green zones will keep slowly disappearing from Prague.
The exact plan of the new zones is available on the council's website for parking zones.
"Starting 24 August, changes in parking pricing will be made. These changes will come into effect two days prior to the opening of the parking zones, that is on 24 August," clarified Lišková. The annual fees for businessmen will be cut; they will pay 7000 CZK a year for the first car. Resident fees for the first car will remain unchanged at 1200 CZK per year; fees for the second car will go down 5000 crowns, dropping to 7000 crowns per year. Disabled persons will pay the same annual fee as senior citizens over 65 years of age, 360 CZK per car.
Prague 1 and 2 will transition to the new parking system in October, and Prague 7 will do so in February. The city will mostly see new purple zones.

Q: Ajax Accordion - Multiple controls with the same ID '_content' were found I'm dynamically adding accordion panes to an Accordion Control. When I add a single pane, no problem but trying to add 2nd pane I get the exception: Multiple controls with the same ID '_content' were found
I've tried assigning unique Ids to the panes as follows but not joy. Can anyone please help?
Thanks
Rob.

A: Fixed it! Don't know why but assigning the PaneId directly after declaration (on the following line) is critical.

So far, we have studied the two basic mechanisms that Libgdx provides when it comes to handling user input. An event-based approach can be quite useful to respond to certain actions. However, only one InputListener can capture events at a given time.
Often, you will find yourself with two separate subsystems that are interested in different events. Maybe the player input controller, UI system, and game screen all want to be informed whenever the user does something. How will you tackle this limitation then?

KippsDeSanto & Co. Industry Week in Review – October 26, 2018
Several aerospace and defense and government technology solutions companies announced positive earnings this week. Healthy global air travel and rising military budgets were cited as primary drivers behind the strong earnings reports. Moreover, the U.S Department of Justice continues to prioritize cybersecurity and has formally charged a Russian national in connection with fabricating disinformation throughout the 2016 election.
Aerospace & Defense Update
Numerous aerospace and defense companies announced positive 3Q18 earnings this past week. Boeing beat earnings per share ("EPS") estimates by $0.11 (3.2%) and revenue estimates by $1 billion, reporting $25.1 billion of total revenue for 3Q18, reflecting more efficient commercial aircraft production and robust defense business growth highlighted by several major contract awards. Moreover, Lockheed Martin beat EPS estimates by $0.83 (19.3%) and increased year-over-year revenue 16% to $14.2 billion. Lockheed's strong revenue and earnings growth was led by its Aeronautics business unit, which continues to benefit from increased production of its F-35 combat jet program. Raytheon's earnings also beat EPS estimates by $0.24 (11.9%) and grew revenue by 8.3% YoY to $6.81 billion, driven by 7% sales growth in its missile systems business unit and 13% sales growth in its intelligence, information and services business units.
StandardAero Aviation Holdings, Inc., a portfolio company of Veritas Capital, is exploring a potential sale that could be worth over $5 billion. StandardAero has a global presence and is one of the largest maintenance, repair, and overhaul providers for Boeing and Airbus' aircrafts, engines, business jets, and helicopters. Favorable macroeconomic trends including robust global air travel, a proliferating military budget, and the Pentagon's renewed focus on maintenance and upgrades make StandardAero a desirable acquisition target for a variety of strategic and private equity suitors.
Government Technology Solutions
As it continues its initiative on cracking down on foreign cyber threats, the Department of Justice ("DOJ") officially charged a Russian national this past week in connection with a disinformation campaign in the wake of the 2016 election. The specifics behind the alleged cybercrime involved funding the creation of fake and politically-contentious information in an effort to stir up political unrest. This public indictment of a foreign national provides one of the first concrete examples of enforcing the U.S. government's new National Cyber Strategy. The policy, released in September, specified a shift in approach whereby the U.S. would publicly condemn nation states for their involvement in cyberattacks. This year has already seen the DOJ responding to cybercrimes more publicly, including the indictment of nine Iranians for stealing several universities' data in March, twelve Russians for the Democratic National Committee ("DNC") hack in July, a North Korean programmer who was involved in some of the biggest cyber-attacks in recent years, and seven Russian military officers earlier this month for the attacks against the World Anti-Doping Agency ("WADA"). As cybercrime is becoming an increasingly popular political weapon for international states, the DOJ intends to respond accordingly publicly condemn and indict foreign cyber criminals, in an attempt to curtail the behavior and lead the way for other Western governments to do the same.
Bombardier (down 15.1%) – Share prices were down this week after Mitsubishi pushed back against claims Bombardier made in a lawsuit that Mitsubishi hired Bombardier engineers and stole trade secrets to expedite production.
General Dynamics (down 10.7%) – Share prices were down this week after the company announced revenue below expectations. Total revenue rose 20% to $9.09 billion but fell short of the $9.38 billion estimated.
Applied Insight acquires Organizational Strategies Inc., a provider of analytics, IT and intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance ("ISR"). Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Directional Aviation has agreed to acquired SimCom International, Inc., a provider of initial and recurrent pilot training for jet, turboprop, and piston aircrafts using FAA-qualified flight training device and full-motion simulators. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
QinetiQ Group, plc. has acquired Inzpire Group, Ltd., a provider of operation training and mission systems for military customers in the UK and internationally. The deal is worth an estimated $30.5 million.

On the heels of the Esterline Technologies / TransDigm deal, L3 Technologies has entered into an agreement to combine with Harris Corporation to form another major player in the defense industry. In addition to an active M&A market, federal agencies are recognizing the need and benefit of updating legacy infrastructure and incorporating NextGen technologies to drive increased investment in IT over the next few years.
L3 Technologies and Harris Corporation have agreed to combine in an all-stock deal, which will be the largest-ever defense industry merger. The combination will form a sixth prime defense contractor focused primarily on defense electronics and communications. The newly formed entity, L3 Harris Technologies, will be based in Melbourne, Florida and will be approximately $33.5 billion in combined market value. The two companies are projecting approximately $16 billion in combined revenue this year, which will surpass Huntington Ingalls and BAE Systems. M&A activity continues to be highly active for the defense market, fueled by premium market valuations and favorable defense spending. This merger also represents a further hollowing out of the middle of the U.S. defense market, as larger players continue to seek scale through inorganic growth. This transaction is expected to close mid-way through 2019, pending a review by the Defense Department.
Shortly after midnight on October 17th, the Air Force's fourth Advanced Extremely High Frequency ("AEHF") satellite successfully launched aboard an Atlas 5 rocket from Cape Canaveral Air Force Base in Florida. The AEHF satellite provides highly protected communications for the Department of Defense, offering "survivable, global, secure, protected and jam-resistant communication for high-priority military ground, sea, and air assets," according to an Air Force statement. The fourth AEHF satellite significantly increases communication speed allowing the transmission of real-time video, battlefield maps, and targeting data to help combatant commanders make optimal tactical and strategic decisions. The prime contractor on this $15 billion Air Force program, Lockheed Martin, is under contract to deliver a total of six AEHF satellites. The launch of the next satellite, AEHF 5, is scheduled for July 2019.
This week, FedScoop released the results of a study that details shifting patterns in federal IT investment strategies. The report, underwritten by IBM, surveyed 169 federal agency IT and program management executives to assess which IT and cloud deployment models are in the highest demand in the technology solutions market. Agency efficiency has been a key priority for the federal government and the publishers of the survey hope to "break fresh ground in linking how IT investment strategies are helping, and to a certain extent hindering, agencies and their ability to capitalize on many of the benefits cloud computing services can offer," according to Wyatt Kash, senior vice president of content strategy at Scoop News Group. Nearly 38% of those surveyed are still investing in on-site, government-run data centers, compared to 20% in government-only community clouds, 7% in public / commercial clouds, 16% in hybrid models, and 19% outsourced, privately managed government cloud / data centers. While the on-site approach is the least conducive to digital transformation compared to a hybrid approach, risk tolerance and data sensitivity remain areas of concern for many agencies. Nevertheless, the results of the study indicate a coming shift in investment towards the aforementioned, cloud-friendly approaches that would provide enhanced flexibility and greater scalability for government agencies seeking to retain autonomy over their data. The study indicates that agencies that devote a greater focus on enhancing cloud capabilities also demonstrate a greater propensity to pursue machine learning and AI to increase mission efficiency. Not surprising, cloud forerunners are also more apt to early technology adopters. Federal agency recognition of the need and benefit of updating legacy infrastructure and incorporating NextGen technologies should hopefully drive increased investment in IT over the next few years.
L3 Technologies (up 10.0%) and Harris Corporation (up 9.0%) – Share prices for both entities were among the biggest movers as news of a merger fueled an increase in stock price for both companies.
Harris Corporation and L3 Technologies, Inc. have agreed to merge, the combined entity will create a global defense technology leader, focused on developing differentiated and mission critical solutions. The deal is worth an estimated $18.7 billion.
Luna Innovations, Inc. has acquired Micron Optics, Inc., a provider of innovative optical components and laser-based measurement technologies. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
Sonardyne International Ltd has acquired Chelsea Technologies Group Ltd., a provider of underwater acoustic products to both civilian and defense customers. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
