The Clash were epic. Total raw power. Glad you enjoyed.
For your viewing pleasure...The Clash. THE ONLY BAND THAT MATTERS. One of my favorite bands by far!
I figured what the heck, I've already seen the first trailer. I will say that it does have some good looking villain(s) in it. Gladly, I still have no idea on the premise of the film so that is good.
Some parts were a little confusing, but as a whole I really, REALLY liked it! It was an amalgam of some of Superman mythos from the movies/comics. I hope there's a sequel/trilogy-I think there's quite the potential to make some really powerful movies here. I do have to admit that I did get a little teary eyed and got goosebumps at a couple of the scenes-especially when Jor-El and Lara had to say good bye to Kal-El...and when Kal got angry when the Kryptonians attacked his mother...Wow!
MoS 5/5 for me. I think we are going to see it again later this weekend! It was a lot of awesomeness to digest in one sitting!
Wolverine: I'm the best at what I do.
Deadpool: And now I'm better at doing whatever it is Wolverine does!

Ambitious design focuses on student needs, draws national attention.
The ivy-covered, Gothic main quadrangle may set the tone for the University of Chicago campus. But just across the Midway Plaisance stands a modernist complex that makes an architectural statement of its own—and now stars in the story of a plucky comeback from near-obscurity.
With its rhythmic patterns, vertical lines, and use of glass, the iconic D'Angelo Law Library was the vision of renowned Finnish-American architect Eero Saarinen. Completed in 1959, only a few years before his death, the modern structure wore down over time.
But the school recently completed a long renovation process that brought the library into the Information Age. The work has drawn widespread praise, including the 2008 Richard H. Driehaus Foundation Preservation Award for Rehabilitation, and critical acclaim across the nation.
Preservationists won out, and the school hired local architectural firm OWP/P to adapt the building—Saarinen's lone remaining work in Chicago—to modern student needs. Under the leadership of Saul Levmore, Dean of the Law School, the renovations were focused on emphasizing the student experience and have produced a modern facility embedded in a historic space.
One of the biggest tasks included reducing the number of onsite books by 40 percent, thus freeing up room in the previously cramped tower for academic offices, a suite for student service departments, and study space. The most-used books remain on the shelves in the hundreds of thousands, while the removed volumes will be available either online or at the new Joe and Rika Mansueto Library, slated to open in 2010.
To take advantage of the building's windowed façade, light-blocking cubicles were removed and doors to the faculty offices given translucent panels. Wood and carpeting have warmed the space, while study nooks and lounges feature Saarinen's cozy Womb and Tulip chairs in constant use.
"The library is no longer austere and dark with gray linoleum floors, concrete ceilings, fluorescent lights, and black book stacks," says Judith Wright, Associate Dean for Library and Information Services.
The John P. Wilson Reading Room and a media room, where students can relax or study in front of a television, provide social space for students. The renovated student study space includes refinished original tables, new study carrels and chairs, improved lighting, and upgraded network access, said Wright.
Students have embraced the library's marriage of styles. "Everything's modern—but also comfortable," says first-year Zach Price. "Usually when people go modern, they mess it up." Price often uses D'Angelo for solo studying, although given its quiet atmosphere he usually heads to the more boisterous Regenstein Library for group work.
Baird is satisfied with the results of the decade-long renovation that spanned four deanships. "We figured out how to both reconfigure the space and restore the state to what the architect would have wanted if they hadn't been pinching pennies in the '60s," he says.

Our featured brewery for the next two weeks (19th April – 2nd May) is Crafty Brewing based just down the road from us in Dunsfold. Included in the offer of any 2 for £5 are Loxhill Biscuit, Heady Steady Go, Dunsfold Best, Hop Tipple and Crafty One. Scroll down the page to find out more!
Why did you set up The Crafty Brewing Company?
Mainly for fun as I love brewing but the real kick was that people loved the beers, I was getting orders for the home-brews I was making and I fancied contributing something to the local beer offerings!
Personally, what are your own experiences and history with beer?
I developed a passion for brewing beer at uni and continued to brew with all sorts of random ingredients (Fuchsia fruits, nettles, bread, honey) when working in various countries overseas (Ghana, Kenya,Chile).
What's it like brewing on a farm in the Surrey Hills? Does farm life inspire your beer? Do you stick to traditional routes?
Yes absolutely. History of the landscape and traditional brewing methods have always resonated with me. Using local ingredients, other than the staple hops, grains, water and yeast are something I enjoy. Farm-life in the Surrey Hills has led to the use of a fox for our logo – although relations between the foxes and my chickens have always been a little tricky. The rare-breed pigs I keep next-door to the brewery enjoy munching their way through the piles of grains, hops and yeast the brewing process throws out. It's also a very nice place to enjoy a beer at the end of the day!
Tell us about your beer? Is there a certain style of name you look for? What's the most popular?
The most popular is Loxhill Biscuit although Crafty One is really starting to catch-up after its release a few months ago. Not so much a style of name as a suitable name; Loxhill is the tiny little area outside of Dunsfold where we're based and biscuit is my favourite malt, Dunsfold Best, Crafty One and Heady Steady Go just seemed fun.
What are your ambitions for the brewery? Are these different from when you started? How have you evolved?
The evolution and growth of the brewery has been fun. Starting in a shed, I managed to get hold of an old lorry body someone wanted rid of and I converted that into a nano-brewery. This housed everything from the Brewhouse, fermenters, bottling line, hops and grains. It was a squeeze, pretty hot but fun to work in once I got used to doing the grab-walk each day. The only thing I lacked in there was a cold-store and this problem was solved by using on old bomb-shelter leftover from the Canadians who lived there before my time and ran the aerodrome where they now film Top-Gear. Since then we moved into an old-stable block on the same site but this soon became too small and we've spilled out into multiple unit's spread-out amongst the trees. The next stage is to apply for planning (currently in progress) at the site and house everything under one roof.
How far do you distribute Crafty Brewing Beers beer? Will you ship anywhere?
Our main catchment area is a radius of 30 miles around the brewing which, at its tips, reaches Bracknell, Basingstoke, Chichester, Brighton, Crawley, Croydon and closer to home: Haslemere, Dunsfold, Godalming, Guildford, Dorking, Woking, Petworth, Midhurst, Bramley, Cranleigh, Horsham. At the same time, we're slowly but surely making tracks in South-East and South-West London. But we have now made two exports to Italy!
What do you want people to think and feel when they drink your beer?
Mostly to simply enjoy it and relax. It's an item of entertainment and enjoyment and should be used as a companion to good times. It would be nice if people remembered where it came from too as there are legion of fine breweries out there and all have their own stories. The story of our beer is that it's come from a beautiful home, born from only four very fresh and wholesome ingredients that are put together carefully and with love each day in the woods come rain or shine.
Any big plans in the pipeline?
Well, we have a big summer ahead of us in 2018. We'll be attending over 15 events and there are a few new tasty events on the horizon too. Keep watching this space.
Anything else you'd like to add or would like to see in the feature?

« Whatever Happened to Two Companions of Melissa Roxas?
The Office of the Solicitor General told the Court of Appeals that the abduction and torture of Melissa Roxas are nothing but mere fabrications to embarrass the government. Her recent press conference in Los Angeles, it says, was part of the plot. The victim's lawyers and supporters, however, say the government is just trying to evade responsibility.
Roxas, a 31-year-old American of Filipino descent, and her two companions — Juanito Carabeo and John Edward Jandoc — were abducted May 19 by suspected military men in La Paz, Tarlac. Roxas was surfaced six days later. Through Karapatan legal counsel Rex Fernandez, Roxas filed a petition for writ of amparo before the Supreme Court a day after she went back to the United States.
Respondents to the writ of amparo include President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, Defense Secretary Gilbert Teodoro, Armed Forces of the Philippines Chief of Staff Victor Ibrado, Philippine National Police Director Gen. Jesus Versoza and Lt. Gen. Delfin Bangit, commanding general of the Philippine Army.

Q: How to set a variable name as same as the column name it is operated on? I have been trying to set the column name in which the following function is operated to the output the function produces.
for (i in 1:ncol(A)) {
    if (class(A[[i]]) == "numeric")
    a1<-(c(mean(A[[i]]),  median(A[[i]]), min(A[[i]]), max(A[[i]])))
    a2<- as.data.frame(a1,row.names= c("mean", "median", "minimum", "maximum"))
}

I need the column name of A[[i]] instead of a2 which I have specified.
I tried names(A)[i] and there is no progress.

A: We can loop over the columns of 'A' using lapply and get the mean, median, min and max for the numeric columns.  Filter the NULL elements out and cbind the list elements to get the output.
res <- do.call(cbind,Filter(length,lapply(A, function(x)
           if(is.numeric(x))
            c(mean=mean(x), median=median(x),minimum= min(x), maximum=max(x)))))
res
#                col1      col3 col4
#mean     0.007221454 0.5245963  1.3
#median   0.134166961 0.4970547  1.5
#minimum -0.848370044 0.1480248  0.0
#maximum  0.847460017 0.9691335  2.0

The million dollar question is this: can your resume get through automated and HR screeners so that you will get the all-important phone call to set up an interview. And is that call for a great job? At the right level and for a good salary? When you are over 50, you need to start worrying about these things. In a study using 40,000 fake resumes, the results showed compelling evidence that there is definitely age discrimination in hiring. You definitely don't want your resume to scream I'm old! You don't want it to say I'm dated and the employer to assume so are your skills and abilities.
In my work with career counseling clients, I have written over 5,000 resumes in my 30-year career. I've seen so many mistakes that boomers need to avoid. For example, when I started my session with Tom, a 61-year-old manager who had a long career in the manufacturing industry, I saw some typical errors boomers make. His resume wasn't producing interviews which prompted his call.
As I looked over Tom's resume, he was making SIX mistakes I'd like you to avoid so here is my analysis along with some comments from a Sr. HR Manager to help you create a better marketing tool that will help you get employers attention.
Boomers think that they need to tell their whole story when all employers really care about are the last 10 years. I recommend you leave off work descriptions you did prior to 2000 if you must bring attention to it only note the job title, company, and employment dates. Experience that is 20 years ago is so dated employers find little value in it. They hire you for the ability you have now, not when you started out. So edit the old experience out. HR recruiters continue to state that TWO pages are all they'll read so never exceed that length.
Employers are worried that your best days may be behind you so the resume needs to be focused on how you still are a key contributor. Boomers tend to write very long, dull job descriptions. Employers are only interested in seeing the results you have achieved on the job. You should outline the accomplishments and outcomes you have recently delivered to your current organizations. Show how you created new things, have been innovative and solved key problems. Make mention of your bottomline contributions and quantify whenever possible.
Many baby boomers do realize that they apply online but they fail to understand how applicant tracking software works. Some companies may have sophisticated software installed and others may have a more basic tracking system that they use. And every employer is dependent on the human being who thinks up and types in the keywords on the job surrounding that search. So your best bet is to include the most important work tasks for your job into the resume and be sure that related job or specific field words involved in performing key functions are in the resume too. Be careful what you read online about magic keyword apps and template or keyword services — most of it is junk and doesn't work.
Older workers often don't have a slew of computer skills or maybe you do. How would the employer know if you fail to include them on your resume? This can be a place to shine if you have extra skills beyond the basics. Being an expert user in Excel or Project is worth noting. Mention fabulous creative skills using PowerPoint, or blogging skills using WordPress. Maybe you can utilize Adobe's creative suite. Don't forget to mention experience working with databases. We assume you are able to use Word and Outlook. None of these? Then get to the library or a community college and start taking classes.
Most baby boomers simple cram too much into their resume using an outdated style. Writing in only paragraphs is a very dated resume style that definitely screams you are very old-fashioned. Most of your work experience should be written in bullets as these are concise and can convey your message in the briefest way possible. Employers need to be able to clearly read the resume. Keep the font size to a 12. Don't use tables in creating the resume content as some software cannot scan them leaving that section of your resume blank. Don't make a long list of skills competencies as that is also a more dated style. Demonstrate your abilities inside your experience in the skills you used and the results you have achieved.
Lastly, but a point that always must be said, proof carefully!
Making these changes are the key steps to helping boomers stay marketable in today's workplace.


Accsys > People Management for Your Business: Is There a Right Solution?
People Management for Your Business: Is There a Right Solution?
Every business has HR processes in place to manage people and performance, whether it's an informal 'rule of thumb' approach or controlled by formal procedures. It's no secret that by implementing the right system, you will be able to streamline interdepartmental processes, improve productivity and achieve a high return on investment, while maintaining employee satisfaction. But what does the 'right' solution look like?
We've put together five key capabilities that HR managers should look for in people management software to lead a more effective human resources function.
For companies looking to solve the challenges created by siloed data sources, software that integrates Payroll, HR & Time & Attendance provides better insight into the workforce so that, together, executives and HR can make more informed decisions based on accurate, timely data.
A unified, end-to-end people management solution will give you centralised control over all HR business processes from recruitment to exit, and all the processes in between – saving you time and reducing errors.
As an HR professional, you are accountable to your executive management team for the results expected of you. This means reporting on relevant KPIs for the HR department as well as benchmarking performance and setting goals for improvement.
People management software that offers automated reporting across all fields simplifies the process of consolidating key data and extracting insights that will add value to internal discussions.
A good people management approach recognises that every organisation is different. A business that uses a 'one-size-fits-all' solution might find that it does not meet all their needs or contains too many non-essential features that complicate processes and cost money.
It is important to look for a system that can be configured to meet your business processes and requirements – and scale up to meet your future needs.
How easy a system is to use goes a long way to ensuring its successful adoption and optimal use. People management software should therefore be designed with an intuitive interface that's functional and easy for your whole team to navigate, from HR and Payroll professionals, to your managers and even employees who may have access to certain features.
The advent of online people management solutions has made it possible to save more time, be more efficient and work anywhere. With a cloud-based system, it's also easier to stay up to date with changing rules and compliance standards with real-time updates.
Inefficient and complicated HR processes can impact critical aspects of your organisation. The right technology can help HR align with the goals of the business, get better insights and provide the flexibility to act more strategically.


Friday night Paul, Paul's Mom, and I went to the Tron Theatre to see Stuart Carolan's Defender of the Faith.
Set on a farm in south Armagh in 1986 - at the height of the Troubles - the play is centered around a father ("Joe"), who is a local brigade commander for the IRA and his eldest son ("Tommy"), whom we are led to believe is also involved within the IRA - although the audience isn't sure to what degree. Until the end of the play, that is. The farm hand, Barney, is also active in the IRA and is suspected of being an informer to the British Army (known as a "tout") and as such, an IRA enforcer arrives from Belfast to source out the informer.
At a tight 90 minutes, with no interval, the play was fast-paced and dark but extremely gripping. The actors, especially Martin McCormick (who played the eldest son, "Tommy"), were brilliant. My only complaint would have been the ending; the final scene felt clumsy and if it had been tagged on at the end by the playwright.

The distances in the table and on the map are an approximation!! This is because the actual routes from the GR12 to the POI are not included.
The distance from a Point Of Interest (POI) to the GR12 is the shortest distance to the GR12 in a direct line.
Total distance = Distance point 1 to nearest point on the GR12 + Distance point 2 to nearest point on the GR12 + Distance between the two nearest points on the GR12
If points 1 and 2 are close to the GR12, the calculated distance is usually a good approximation.
If one of the two points is situated further from GR12, the actual distance may differ (significantly) from the calculated distance.
It is recommended to check the route from a starting point to the GR12 and from the GR12 to the end of a stage! This may e.g. by zooming in on the map and checking for a path or road from the starting point to the GR12 and from the GR12 to the end point.
The track of the GR12 is from different sources and may include errors. Also, the recorded POIs may include errors! It is recommended to check the track and points before walking the path!

Over the years, he's visited a number of abandoned theme parks in the US - and the photos are haunting. Check out the 30 photos below to see the eerie remains of 10 different neglected parks for yourself.
Amateur builder R.W. Bishop purchased 14 acres in North Toledo in 2000 and transformed the land into an amusement park that he called "Enchanted Forest Playland."
Despite Bishop's hopes, attendance never picked up enough to sustain the park, and five years after its grand opening, the Enchanted Forest Playground officially shut down.
The park's owner has been selling the remaining equipment and rides in the hopes of getting out of debt.
The Fun Spot Amusement Park and Zoo opened its doors to the public in 1956. For the most part, the park catered to tourists exploring Indiana's northern lakes, and it managed to grow and expand over the years.
The Matterhorn ride, pictured above, was supposed to simulate an Olympic bobsled race - now, it looks like an arena in ruins.
... but as mega-venues like Six Flags, Kings Island, and Cedar Point started to thrive, the Fun Spot's popularity dwindled.
The amusement park's hours of operation were sporadic and unpredictable near the end.
The park blamed "the economy" for its closure.
A sign at the entrance of the park still reads "Closed for Storm" 13 years later.
The park, which was originally called "Jazzland," was built in 2000 before Six Flags acquired it in 2002.
The decaying rides and apocalyptic landscapes serve as an eerie reminder of the hurricane's devastation.
Hurricane Katrina's calamitous reach spanned multiple cities, but it primarily affected New Orleans; nearly 20,000 people were displaced and relocated to the city's superdome, and 1,833 people died in the aftermath.
There's been talk of rehabilitation, but the park still remains in shambles.
Several Hollywood films have used the ruinous landscape to their advantage, like "Jurassic World" and "Dawn of the Planet of the Apes."
The park was founded in 1949, and was owned by several different families and corporations over the decades, until an incident concerning the park's Ferris wheel served as a catalyst for Joyland's eventual demise.
The park was called Disney River Country, and ceased operations in 2001 after Disney's second and third water parks, called Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach respectively, became more popular attractions for guests.
Disney was initially willing to reopen the park if there was "enough guest demand", which could explain the company's decision to forgo hypothetical demolition plans. Now, a sense of abandonment permeates the once-lively waterpark.
You can find more photos of the ghostly Disney World venue in Lawless' photo series "Dismaland."
Of the park's 17 vintage attractions, 14 have been sold.
The Bar'l of Fun was featured on a Discovery Channel special in 1997.
Bushkill Park's website still reads: "The owners of Bushkill Park are working hard to repair the damage that has been done by the floods and other means."
The park has reopened for special occasions, such as the owner's 115th birthday, over the years, although the rides are still not operational.
Fehnel's hope is to have the rides back up and running by summer 2018.
The park, which opened in 1970 - 31 years after the release of the "Wizard of Oz" film - closed in 1980 after its owner passed away and a fire destroyed the site's Emerald City.
Even though the attraction shut down, the park hasn't been completely abandoned, as it's home to annual local events.
The park went through several acquisitions, and was even billed as a "Wildwater Kingdom" from 2004 to 2007.
Six Flag's reign didn't last long; Cedar Fair acquired the park from 2004 to 2007, and invested $26 million. They eventually renamed it: "Geauga Lake & Wildwater Kingdom."
Lake Shawnee Park in West Virginia was shut down in 1966 after two young patrons died on site — and now it's believed to be cursed.
The park's owner reopened the venue for three years before it ceased operations once more.
Since closing, the park has been featured on the Discovery Channel's "GhostLab," as well as the Travel Channel's "The Most Terrifying Places in America."

Hello all, I'm brand new to this site and not exactly sure where to start. Right to the point: I own a 2013 xD. Hate the horns, too many people turn in front of me. I want to replace the horns. There is a video on YouTube showing how to easily remove the entire front bumper. Is it that easy or will it interfere with the airbag system? Removing the front bumper would allow easy access to the OEM horns and I'd be done in no time.
Leaving the front bumper on: it looks like I can remove the plastic piece underneath the car and work from under the horns with space for my hands and arms being a slight problem. Your thoughts are appreciated.
Firstly, I assume you are removing the bumper COVER, not the bumper. Removing the cover won't affect the collision sensors at all.
The cover is held on with about 2 dozen plastic clips, about 1/3 to 1/2 of which will break when you remove the cover, so buy a bunch of replacement clips (I think there are 3 different sizes, BTW). As for where the wheel well liners connect with the chin cover and the bumper cover, make certain that you get ALL the clips back on securely or else some day while driving at highway speeds, the air will catch the liner, it will hit the tire, and will rip off the liner and scare the pants off you (don't ask me why I know this...).
Thank you for the info. It's much appreciated!

Student organizers 'optimistic' about local vote on polystyrene ban
by Seacoast Online May 1, 2019

York High School seniors Caroline Leal and Hannah Gennaro will be voting for the first time in town elections next month, able to cast their ballot in favor of an initiative the two have been championing for the better part of year — a townwide ban on polystyrene food and beverage containers.
Selectmen unanimously endorsed the proposed ordinance in February after several public hearings. It will appear as Question 3 on the special general referendum ballot before voters on May 18.
"You never know who's going to show up to vote, but I'm feeling optimistic," said Leal. "There's a lot of support in the community for this."
[Subscribe to our free morning newsletter and get the latest headlines in your inbox]
For Gennaro, a vote for Question 3 is a vote for the next generation. "It's our future. It pains me when people tell me they don't believe in this issue. I don't really get it. Plastics are choking us, and it is me and my friends who are going to be living in this world."
If Question 3 passes, the ordinance would require retail establishments to stop selling food or drinks in packages and containers made of polystyrene — better known by the trademark name Styrofoam. Retailers also can't sell polystyrene products, like coffee cups or plates. The town, schools and York Hospital are also prohibited from using these products. Exempted are nonprofit and religious establishments.
[Maine becomes first state to ban single-use foam containers]
The Code Enforcement office will enforce the ordinance, which begins with verbal warning, followed by written warning, then a written notice of violation. There is a penalty of $50 for the first offense and $100 for each subsequent offense.
If approved by voters, the law would not take effect until May 2020 to give businesses time to use their current stock of products and plan to purchase either paper or compostable products instead. York would become the 10th municipality in Maine to pass polystyrene bans.
The Legislature has passed a law banning the material for use statewide, but that won't go into effect until 2021.
[bdnvideo id="1416386″]
There are several other differences between the proposed ordinance in York and the state legislation. Particularly, the state bill exempts hospitals from participation, while York's requires compliance from York Hospital, which has instituted its own efforts to reduce polystyrene.
"I wish it didn't have the hospital exemption, but I understand it," said resident Victoria Simon, a mentor to Leal, Gennaro and fellow YHS students Daphne Gignac, Billy Bachelder and Gabe Sarno. "It's great that Maine could be the first or second in the country to ban polystyrene. But ultimately, I believe people I will stop using these products."
[The way Maine foods are packaged will have to change by 2021]
Leal and Gennaro are the third wave of YHS students to push for a ban, which started picking up steam in 2017 when 2018 graduate Sophia Eytel became involved. They have worked with Town Manager Steve Burns on the ordinance's wording, informed themselves of the scientific data and spoken to local groups like the Rotary Club, chamber of commerce and the Masons.
"We are both very, very busy students," said Gennaro. "I play three sports, Caroline plays two sports. But this is one of the most important things I've ever done in my life. So it's absolutely worth it."
The two said they were struck by the nature of polystyrene, which breaks into smaller and smaller pieces and can drift on the air into the ocean, where the particles can become so small they mimic phytoplankton. "Scientists estimate that there will be more plastic than plankton in the ocean by 2050. That really stuck with me," said Leal.
[More Maine towns make transition to life without plastic bags]
Polystyrene is not recycled in Maine and so is often landfilled, they said.
With regard to businesses, the two agree it might cost more for them to use compostable or paper products, but they believe as more customers insist on a non-polystyrene container those costs will decrease. "It's difficult because there are financial costs, but you have to realize you're paying now or when there's a bigger issue and the environment is severely impacted," said Leal.
At an informational meeting with Greater York Region Chamber of Commerce members, President Holly Roberts told the students that chamber officials are "hearing from both sides. Some are very pro and some are against it because of the expense and inconvenience." Currently, Stage Neck Inn, York Harbor Inn, Stone's Throw Restaurant, First Hill restaurant and Anthony's Food Shop use alternatives to polystyrene.
[Will York's plastic bag ban actually help the environment?]
"We use biodegradable containers and hope other businesses will support the effort to eliminate polluting polystyrene in the town of York," Stone's Throw owner Joe Lipton said in a recent letter to the editor.
The proposal has had one consistent opponent who came to the public hearings and chamber meeting. Steve Hirshfield, a retired chemical industry executive, said when compared to paper products, manufacturing of polystyrene products is more energy efficient. Because of its light weight, it costs less in fuel to transport; and he said the packaging reduces food borne illness.
[Interactive map: These are the Maine towns that have banned plastic bags]
"If we are truly serious about the environment, expanded polystyrene food service products should not be banned. It costs less, it performs better and is as safe as any alternate material," he said at a public hearing. But he did not deny it degrades, and that has been the key argument made by Leal, Gennaro and Simon.
"People don't see impact of pollution on their everyday lives," said Gennaro. "Because they don't see polystyrene breaking down, they don't really understand its impact. Look at the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. It's all plastics. That's being ingested by fish and entering our system when we eat that fish. And that patch is going to keep growing until we do something about it."

Andhra Pradesh Cancels State Board Exams
Shruti Kakkar
08:13 PM, 24 Jun 2021
Pursuant to Supreme Court's critical remarks earlier during the day, Andhra Pradesh Government has decided to cancel the State Board exams which the State had proposed to conduct in the end of July, 2021.
The statement comes after a press meeting convened today evening wherein the State Education Minister Adimulapu Suresh informed about cancellation of State Board Exams.
The Minister also said that the marking would be according to the internal assessment as prescribed by the Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court today said that it would not permit the State of Andhra's Pradesh to conduct the State Board Exams until and unless the State places on affidavit a concrete plan ensuring the safety of the students and other staff involved in the examination process.
The vacation bench comprising Justices AM Kahnwilkar and Dinesh Maheshwari has directed the state government to place a timeline for declaration of results and a contingency plan with some sort of compensation in case of fatality and posted the matter for further hearing tomorrow.
The Court had also directed all the state boards to formulate the scheme of assessment within 10 days from today in response to which the minister said, "In the interest of students, the second option is exercised to cancel the exam".
Adv Mahfooz Nazki appearing for the state of Andhra Pradesh submitted that the state was going to conduct the exams at the end of July and they are not going to cancel the exams.
The Court however not convinced with the state's decision said "How Have you worked out on the formula to follow the protocol? How are you going to arrange for the requisite rooms? How are you going to divide the students in 34634 rooms? On what basis have you said, not more than 15 students per room? If you don't have the arrangement, are you going to conduct it in open?"
"How can we permit you to put the life of students at risk? If we agree, you will have to put before us a proper firm decision..The condition of Covid is different in different states. Now Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh & Kerala have been identified for the delta variant. We're faced with the situation where we'll have to see the situation & ground reality"
The bench further clarified that until and unless the state ensures that the exam would be conducted without any fatality, it would not permit the state to conduct the board exams.
State of Andhra Pradesh yesterday submitted an affidavit stating that it will conduct State Board Examinations. This development comes in after yesterday's hearing wherein the Supreme Court came heavily upon the State Government to take a conclusive decision saying, "Do not keep the students under any uncertainty. Mr Nazki, file an affidavit saying that you are going to conduct the exam."
Following precautionary measures shall be put in place, as per the affidavit submitted:
Exams for class XI and XII will be conducted on alternative days
First year or Second year students are required to appear for 5 or 6 subjects only; 5 subjects for Arts and 6 subjects for Science
Only 15 to 18 students will be allotted to each examination centre
A Social distancing of minimum 5 ft. between each student shall be maintained
All examination centres will be sanitized daily
Masks, Sanitizers, Thermal Scanners will be kept available in every examination centre
Students and teachers shall be subjected to a Thermal Screening before entering the examination centre
Room wise allotment of students shall be displayed at multiple places to avoid crowding at the examination centre
The Supreme Court had however posted for tomorrow at 2:00 PM.

Work starts on £40,000 transformation of open space in Harlesden
Published: 2:54 PM March 18, 2013
Boris Johnson, Mayor of London - Credit: Archant
St Mary's in Challenge Close has been awarded makeover fund by Mayor of London
An open space in Harlesdenis being transformed into vegetable patches, a play area including seating a designated space for ball games thanks to a £40,000 grant.
Work has started on the dramatic makeover of St Mary's open space in Challenge Close, following the cash injection from the Mayor's office as part of a 'pocket park project.
The scheme will result in 100 urban spaces across London being converted into a 'mini-oasis'.
Boris Johnson, the Mayor of London, said: "London is already an incredible place to live, but by making the most of our small forgotten outdoor spaces and providing trees, greenery and meeting places the fantastic quality of life here can still be improved upon.
"Through these mini transformations we can make Brent an even better place to live in, to work in and to invest in."
Work on all 100 'pocket parks' are due to finish by March 2015.
