Controllers (otherwise known as comptrollers) produce a remarkable amount of important information that could improve government transparency. Though their function and title differs from place to place, they generally oversee and audit government finances, examine program effectiveness and monitor compliance with laws.
But all too often their work ends up buried in old computer files and gathering dust in file cabinets. This is sometimes because their conclusions are politically unpopular or because they simply don't take the steps necessary to draw attention to their work.
Why Government Watchdogs Are Worried The Impact That Government Auditing Could Have (and Doesn't) Detroit Shuts Down Department That Battles Waste and Corruption Should Someone Audit Government Auditors?
This is a significant concern for Philadelphia Controller Alan Butkovitz, who has been in office since 2006. He's worried about what he calls a "trend of taking power away from controllers." He spoke with us about this issue and the importance of the position in the following interview, which has been edited for clarity and length.
We know you’re concerned about controllers having sufficient influence. Could you comment about that?
There’s a trend of taking power away from controllers. The budget power is all in the hands of the mayor and city council -- or for the counties, in the county commissioners. They’ve been very restrictive in the kinds of money that they’re willing for the controllers to have. There’s an ongoing legislative assault to take away more power from controllers.
The controller’s offices in many smaller counties are completely overwhelmed with routine day-to-day operations. They do a professional job and then get unfunded and outvoted. Then they shrug their shoulders and say they stood for the right thing.
Any advice for other controllers?
You have to avoid becoming isolated, and you have to show that you’re able to win a fight.
Do you have any success stories for controllers in these situations?
Thirteen years ago, school districts were underwater financially. There were calamitous deficits and a lot of misrepresentation back in 2006. When we attacked this issue, there was a lot of skepticism. It took a long time and a lot of examples to shift opinions, but now we don’t have to do the outreach. There are all sorts of stakeholders who come to us for a judgment of what could be done with the schools. You have to develop a personal credibility with the public that is based on concrete issues.
How do you develop that kind of credibility?
You need to be persistent on specific issues -- instead of hitting an issue and then being done with it. There is no automatic deference to controller findings. In this era, you have to accumulate allies, evidence and a scorecard for being right. It takes many years.
We try to become the expert in Philadelphia on the subject we’re involved with. It’s hard to argue with us. That’s even the case with issues of corruption. We did the first forensic audit regarding the Philadelphia sheriff’s office. There was $11 million of inappropriate spending and that had an impact on over 7,000 people.
How does that kind of persistence and development of expertise evolve?
We identified high priority issues like slow response times on ambulances or failure of the license and inspection department to do their safety enforcement mission competently. We would revisit those issues on very short timetables. It took a lot of time to build the case on each issue.
Are there any particular tools you’ve used that have helped get attention to your findings?
We developed video audits. We have found they have devastating impact. For example, we did our third review of the condition of school buildings. The video that showed the bathrooms clogged with human waste that isn’t cleaned up -- that had the school district surrender. Traditionally it has been able to deny the situation.
Is there any lesson you’ve learned that you wish you had known when you were newer to the office?
We developed a relationship with the media and became a resource for them. It would have been tremendously valuable to have those strong relationships in place in the first year. A lot of the work we do is technical and difficult to understand. I would have liked to create the relationships more quickly.
Are there any ways you wish the controller’s office was treated differently within the government structure?
I wish that the controller was consulted at earlier points in the process on policy matters. We have the role of giving an opinion to the Pennsylvania Intergovernmental Cooperation Authority, but that doesn’t come until after the city council approves the budget. We’re the only people who delve into the accuracy of the projections about the city’s finances for the next five years. It’s a little backwards. Our opinion should be required before the council approves the budget.
That would also be a good idea in a number of other policy areas. For example, we have found a lot of systemic problems in a lot of agencies like L&I [Licenses and Inspections]. When we find a pattern of systemic abuse, there ought to be the requirement that our well-thought-out solutions get considered.
What about your relationship with Mayor Nutter, who has just left office? We’ve heard it hasn’t been the best.
I wish we would have had a better relationship with Mayor Nutter, but I don’t know how we could have done that. He used to call me at 11 at night to yell at me. The option would have been to do what he wanted, which would have been sacrificing our independence. Part of that is the nature of the relationship. You’re criticizing people and giving demerits in their career advancement.

CLA, or Conjugated Linoleic Acid, is a non-essential fatty acid found primarily in meat and dairy products. CLA is found in the highest concentrations in the meat of animals that chew their cud. Cows and sheep are good examples of such animals.
There is some decent data indicating that CLA, taken in doses from .7 to 4.5 grams daily, can decrease body fat mass in obese and overweight people (the optimal dose seems to be about 3.2 grams daily — see Am J Clin Nutr. 2007 May;85(5):1203-11). CLA appears to work by inhibiting the action of the enzyme lipoprotein lipase (LPL) — the enzyme that is responsible for transferring fat from the blood stream to the fat cells.
Unfortunately, it’s impossible to get the beneficial effects of CLA directly from meat and cheese.
This fatty acid is available naturally in very low concentrations. In other words, you’d need to consume a huge amount of high-fat foods to obtain a reasonable amount of this supplement. By doing this, of course, you’d negate any positive benefits.
That’s why it’s necessary to supplement with CLA.Research has shown that CLA has great potential as a diet aid — helping to prevent additional weight gain, and spurring on lean muscle growth.
In fact, several double-blind, placebo-controlled studies (see above) have confirmed that CLA reduces fat and preserves muscle tissue. And that’s not all!
Helps diabetics control blood sugar levels.
Even better, side effects associated with the use of the conjugated linoleic acid supplement are extremely rare, and when they do occur they’re usually mild (often manifesting themselves as mild gastro-intestinal maladies).
Considering the controversy surrounding stimulant based fat burners, the CLA supplement represents a healthy and effective alternative. We especially like CLA for those who are sensitive to stimulants, or for seniors.
Dosage should start at a minimum of 3 grams per day for women, and 4 grams for men up to 200 lbs. Men over 200 lbs. will experience greater results with 5 grams per day.
When you’re looking for a quality CLA supplement, look for the “Tonalin™” name somewhere on the label. While not absolutely necessary, Tonalin is the patented form of Conjugated Linoleic Acid that was used in the studies determining the effectiveness of this supplement.
One thing to keep in mind: some retailers advertise CLA as being particularly good for burning belly fat. Despite the clinical evidence demonstrating CLA’s weight loss benefits, there’s no evidence it’s any better for burning belly fat over any other type of fat. Tony Rovere’s great article on burning belly fat fast clearly illustrates why this entire concept is a myth.
The best news is that CLA is relatively inexpensive. For example, at BodyBuilding.com, you can buy 180 caps of PrimaForce Max CLA for just under $18. At three caps per day, that’s a two month’s worth supply.
As I indicated earlier, studies indicate that CLA is most effective when consumed in the 3.2 to 4.7 grams per day range. Most CLA supplements (including the PrimaForce Max CLA) contain 1,000 mg of safflower oil per serving, usually standardized for about 70% CLA per serving (divided 50-50 between the aforementioned isomers).That means to obtain the ideal dosage for weight loss, you need to consume between 5-7 caps per day, instead of the recommended 3 (which will only provide you with 2.1 grams of CLA). That means a 180 capsule bottle will last you between 25 and 35 days. But at $18, it’s still a good value.

Today, Friday, February 8, The Freeport News begins a series on Sweeting’s Cay, where residents expressed concerns on a number of issues that have plagued the quaint settlement for several years. Our reporter Jaimie Smith and photographer Jenneva Russell, had the opportunity to travel to Sweeting’s Cay on Wednesday, February 6 and will tell the residents’ stories through interviews and photographs. The series begins with the island’s channel access.
Traversing the channel between Sweeting’s Cay and the eastern end of Grand Bahama during high tides and suitable weather does not pose a problem; however, low tides and adverse weather conditions which was experienced in the Northern Bahamas last week, makes mobility to and from the cay nearly impossible.
A team from this daily – Jaimie Smith, reporter and Jenneva Russell, photographer – travelled to the settlement on Wednesday, February 6, where they had the opportunity to tour the cay and speak with residents and Council members, who were all passionate about their beloved quaint community.
Council members and residents, all, shared that they do have concerns regarding the Cay. One issue that many alluded to was the rising sand bank that has, over the years, posed a problem for mariners traveling to and from the Cay.
Following a council meeting, our reporter had the opportunity to discuss the inability to pass through the channel during inclement weather and low tides, as a result of the increasing sand accumulation.
Chief Councillor, Gladstone Alexander Russell for the Sweeting’s Cay District Council expressed that during low tides, mariners are unable to pass through the channel as the sand has now clogged the area that was once accessible.
Dion Feaster, former Deputy Chief Councillor and present Council Member expressed, “As it relates to the community of Sweeting’s Cay, there is so much potential that lies here; it is like a sleeping giant. So many things can be done here as it relates to providing jobs, as it relates to catapulting Sweeting’s Cay to its next level.
Feaster added, “We want to commend our government for their diligence and their hard work thus far, but we want to put in a plug to them that we here in Sweeting’s Cay need some financial assistance as it relates to our township.
“We have presented a budget whereby we expect to get some increase in the funding that we have been getting over the years, so that we can put proper structures in place, whereby we can look forward to moving towards putting in place some jobs for our young and upcoming persons in Sweeting’s Cay.
“I would also like to reiterate, as Deputy Chief Councillor alluded to, our channel, is in dire need of an urgent solution. If there is an emergency, it could pose a problem for mariners,” stated Feaster.
Fellow Council Member Basil Tate, also voiced his concerns regarding the issues raised regarding the impasse at the channel.
This daily contacted the Member of Parliament for the area, Deputy Prime Minister K. Peter Turnquest, who noted that discussions are ongoing to have the problem rectified permanently as opposed to a temporary fix, which had taken place in years past.
“During high tide there is not really a big problem; however, at low tide they do have to go out into the ocean to come back and in bad weather that is almost an impossible task, and certainly not to be done safely with children. This matter is not a new matter, it has been an issue for a while,” acknowledged Turnquest.
“We have recently reached out to the Minister of Works (Desmond Bannister) to have a look at this issue. He has directed the Director of Works (Melanie Roach) to address the matter. She reported that an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is necessary in order to authorize any dredging, which is really what it needs. The channel needs to be cleared. We have identified a coastal engineer to have a look at it.
“Hopefully, that will get done shortly and we can get that work started; but it is very much a matter that we are aware of and addressing. Hopefully, we will be able to come up with a cost-effective solution and a permanent solution.
“This is not the first time that the channel has had to be cleared. The last time that it was done, they did it without a study and as a result the channel closed up again. This time we want to do it right and have it addressed as quickly as possible,” stated Turnquest.

For those of us without boats, what are you planning to target in the shark off season?
I do some light tackle stuff soaking crabs for spotting mostly. By catch of perch yfc and Corbin’s is fun too.
Maybe throw the shark gear, but toss fresh squid instead of macks. i think that would open up more possibilities to larger finfish.
I'll keep throwing out the same, but will usually bring a 2nd rod for squid and downsize the hook to a 6/0 to target the basses, shovels, and hopefully an exotic like a WSB or YT. Considering where I fish, its not completely out of the question.
Let's see who catches the best random summer surf catch... well, I'm at a disadvantage since I'll be mostly boat fishing.
I'm beginning to think those Owner 6/0 mutu light circles are the go to critter rod hook. And I've been getting action on 'dines too, you just have to tie them on with the bait elastic.
My off season hopefully, will consist of targeting catfish. I hooked up with Big Willie Mays of Amaysing Fishing Bait and Tackle in Lancaster, Ca. He told the catfish were biting at Quail Lake. I only had a two hour window to fish. Unfortunately, I skunked out. Maybe next time.
Looks like a beautiful location!
Just north of Lake Pyramid, off of the Grapevine!
Thanks for the tip. I'll have to try that spot. I think I will be heading back out that way this weekend. Did you fish that spot during the early am or evening?
That's a sweet looking Reservoir! I bet that things has some jumbos in it.
Great pic Dre! There's a catfish contest going on here!

Austenitic stainless steel with sharp control of the residual elements in order to provide high corrosion resistance properties in boiling 50-65% Nitric acid solutions. The silicon content is kept under 0.3% while the carbon content is lower than 0.015%.
Molybdenum additions are also well known to reduce the behaviour of the steel in nitric acid solutions. This explains why the molybdenum content is guaranteed lower than 0.3% . The sharp control of Carbon, Silicon and phosphorus contents makes it possible to produce a more stable austenite microstructure, free of intermetallic or carbide precipitations. The alloy is designed for nitric acid applications.
1100/1150°C (2010/2100°F) followed by rapid cooling.
Because of its high chromium content, 1.4335 has an excellent resistance in boiling nitric acid solutions of less than about 70% concentration.
Welding The welding of fully austenitic material requires precautions against hot cracking.
prevention of deformations during welding.
From the corrosion resistance point of view, GTAW/TIG welding is the prefered method and welds in contact with the corrosive solution should preferably be welded using this method.

Big game hunters are reminded that the online hunter report form is still unavailable.
Currently, the only way to file a hunter report for deer, elk and pronghorn is to call the toll-free number at 877-268-9365 and speak to a live operator 24-hour a day, 7 days a week. Please have your hunting license number or tag number available when you call.
Fish and Game's online hunter report system was a casualty of the August data breach of their online vendor's database. The department’s online sales and hunter report system will not resume until a third-party cybersecurity firm completes an investigation and certifies that the system is secure.
“We want to thank all hunters for their patience, but we still do not have a timetable for when the online reporting will be available,” said Michael Pearson, Fish and Game Administration Chief.
Reporting by phone is quick and easy, and when you’re completed, you give critical hunt and harvest information, which directly affects decisions about next year’s hunting seasons. Every person who purchased big game tag this year is asked to file a report, even if they did not go hunting.
Idaho Department of Fish and Game is working with an area landowner and the Game Bird Foundation to provide youth pheasant hunting opportunities on a 975 acre Access Yes! parcel on the Palouse River, north of Potlatch, Idaho.
Eligible youth must be 17 years or younger, possess a valid hunting license or passport, and be accompanied by a mentor (an adult 18 years or older who possesses a valid hunting license). The mentor may also hunt. The number of youth hunters is limited to 5 per day.
The Gamebird Foundation recently released approximately 200 rooster pheasants on the property.
To get there, go 2.75 miles west of Potlatch Idaho on Highway 6 to Wellesley Road. Take a left and go another 1.75 miles to South River Road. Turn left and cross the Railroad tracks and the Palouse River bridge. The parking lot and sign-in kiosk is on your left. Please report your harvest at the end of your hunt on the mandatory report form at the kiosk.
For more information about this youth pheasant hunting opportunity, contact the Idaho Fish and Game office in Lewiston at 208-799-5010 or the Gamebird Foundation at 208-883-3423.
Idaho Department of Fish and Game is currently dropping water levels in Winchester Lake in order to make repairs to the dam. The reservoir will be down around 8’ below the high water mark during this project. Work is scheduled to begin on October 31st and will take several weeks to complete. Boaters should be aware that boat ramp access may be affected during this drawdown. Once the work is completed, Winchester Lake will be allowed to refill naturally through the winter and spring. Contact Joe DuPont or Robert Hand at the regional office (208) 799-5010 for more information.
Idaho anglers who have yet to land a salmon this season still have a little time left.
Steelhead catch rates are picking up and there is plenty of exciting fishing left.
Catch rates in mid-October were 11 hours per fish on the Snake below the Salmon River, 3 hours per fish on the Clearwater from the mouth upstream to the Orofino Bridge, 3 hours per fish on the North Fork Clearwater, and 20 hours per fish on the Salmon River from North Fork to the Lemhi River.
Steelhead fishing is unique, considering it is very good anytime catch rates are lower than 10 hours per fish caught.
The fall limits on the Snake, Salmon and Little Salmon is three per day and nine in possession. The fall limit on the Clearwater is two fish per day and six in possession. Anglers may keep 20 steelhead for the fall season which ends December 31.
Anglers must have a valid Idaho fishing license and steelhead permit, and may keep only hatchery steelhead marked with a clipped adipose fin. All other steelhead must be released unharmed immediately.
For more information on steelhead fishing including the latest catch rates, seasons and rules, dam counts, and useful instructional videos, go to http://fishandgame.idaho.gov/fish/steelhead.
The number of auto collisions involving big game animals typically rises during fall and winter, so Idaho Fish and Game encourages motorists to slow down and be extra cautious.
With the onset of autumn and resulting cold air and water temperatures, waterfowl hunters and anglers are urged to take precautions and wear life jackets while on the water this fall.
Overloaded boats and failure to wear life jackets are leading reasons Idaho typically loses a couple of hunters or anglers every year.
In the past ten years nearly 67 percent of the fatal boating accidents in Idaho were the result of victims involuntarily entering the water from small boats. The average water temperature of Idaho’s water is 52 degrees, even during the summer. Wearing a life jacket can greatly increase your chance of surviving a cold water immersion situation.
This includes Boise’s newest urban fishing pond, Esthers Pond, located off Whitewater Boulevard, immediately north of Quinns Pond.
Esthers Pond is located just off Whitewater Park Boulevard, west of downtown Boise and immediately north of Quinns Pond.
Partnering with the City of Boise, the Idaho Department of Fish and Game will regularly stock Esthers Pond with hatchery rainbow trout. The first stocking will occur the week of the grand opening of the park.
Fish and Game staff stocked the pond with bluegill earlier this summer to “jump start” the pond’s fish community. Largemouth bass will be stocked next summer.
General fish rules will apply at Esthers Pond, including six-fish limits on trout. Pond depths appear to be adequate to promote overwinter survival of rainbow trout which should bode well for fishing in the years ahead.
You successfully shot a deer, elk or other big game animal. Now the work begins. You want to properly process the animal so you get many healthy, enjoyable meals from it.
Here's the basic cheat sheet: Gut it, skin it, keep it clean and keep it cool.
But you should know more if you want the best quality game meat, and you should. Not only will it be better eating, it will give you the satisfaction knowing you harvested and processed safe, organic and nutritious meat from pulling the trigger to sizzling it in the frying pan.
Southwest Region: Fort Boise, Payette, Montour, and C.J. Strike WMAs.
Magic Valley: Niagara Springs WMA.
Upper Snake: Market Lake, Mud Lake and Cartier Slough WMAs.
Hunters should note that on July 1, 2016, the age requirement for a WMA pheasant permit changed to 18. Besides a valid Idaho hunting license, hunters 18-years old and older must purchase a $23.75 WMA pheasant permit to hunt those birds. Permits are available anywhere licenses and tags are sold. Each permit allows a hunter to take two pheasants per day and up to six pheasants per permit. Multiple permits may be purchased.

Ontology, the latest crypto project from Shanghai blockchain company OnChain, has experienced a week of falling prices with a 7.61% reduction over the past 24 hours alone. Ontology is currently trading hands at $4.67 at the time of writing, and has experienced a drop of 2.84% from prices seen 7 trading days ago.
Ontology was released on March 18, 2018 by the same company that birthed the Chinese-based blockchain, NEO. Ontology was created to be a distributed trust collaboration platform that would allow corporations and individuals to assess each other through a platform of identification and trust. The great thing about Ontology is that it is designed to be used by those that have no previous experience with blockchain systems as it has a simple implementation due to its modular nature.
The majority of blockchain systems are complex, however, Ontology has a case to be one of the most complex of them all to understand. For a more in-depth overview of Ontology, we highly recommend our “What is Ontology” guide.
Ontology is currently ranked 23rd in terms of overall market cap across the board, with a total market cap value of $706 million. This is almost $600 million lower than the all-time market cap high of $1.3 billion seen on June 7, 2018.
Ontology is a very young coin trading for only a short few months. This makes it difficult to provide any long term technical analysis. However, we can provide short-term analysis of where the market has been and where it is likely to head toward.
Let us analyze Ontology’s market action over its short lifespan.

A former school library advisor and a parent who started a library at her son’s school are volunteering their time at KSA.
Roz Wyman (pictured left) worked for eight years in Northamptonshire County Council's school libraries service while Sarah McCarron (pictured right) helped to establish a library at Brigstock Primary School.
The pair bring a wealth of experience to KSA's library and they will offer support to librarian Juliet Walsh one morning a week.
Mrs McCarron, whose favourite book is Flowers in the Attic by Virginia Andrews, said: "The reason I first got involved with a school library is that unless parents are so inclined to take their children to the public library, it can be the only access chidlren have to books.
"I'm excited about how the library will look in the new building and how it will fit in with the mixed media in use in school."
Mrs Wyman has worked in libraries throughout her career, including nine years at Montsaye Community College. She used to visit school libraries across the county, delivering training and offering advice.
She said: "School libraries are the focal point for encouraging literacy and reading is the focus of everything in a child's learning. If you get someone reading, they will develop an enquiring mind."
Mrs Walsh added: "It's great to have some fresh faces in the library so we can bounce ideas off each other. The students have taken to them really well."

The meeting also aimed at mobilizing religious communities to take an active role in fostering ethical values in children’s education and generate joint action in preventing violence against children.
The roundtable discussion was followed by a meeting with members of GNRC–Brazil, which was led by the GNRC Coordinator for Latin America and the Caribbean, Ms. Silvia Mazzarelli, attended by twenty (20) participants. The main purpose of the meeting was to discuss how to strengthen the network in Brazil and to develop a concrete plan of action to follow-up to the GNRC 5th Forum, held in Panama last year.
As a step towards creating a world free of violence, members agreed to mobilize community and faith based organizations towards ending violence against children. This will be done by empowering them with knowledge, creating awareness on the vice and offering financial support where possible. Faith institutions have a large following and GNRC can utilize faith spaces to address violence against children.
Members stated that every human being has a moral responsibility to ensure children live freely. Each community stakeholder should protect a child from exploitation or abuse, because a child does not just belong to the parent but to the entire community. Participants were urged to support the family because it is the first school of a child; and if a child receives proper education and care from an early age, he will grow up to be a responsible adult.
“Both faith institutions and the family possess unique opportunities to nurture children in a protective and safe environment. This can be achieved by building a relationship of love, respect and unity with the child, done in a firm and non-violent way,” Ms. Mazzarelli stated. She added that the society also has a duty to protect and promote healthy spaces for the child’s growth.
The Panama Declaration on Ending Violence Against Children was shared during the meeting as a successful outcome of the GNRC 5th Forum. Participants committed to disseminate the Panama Declaration to faith based communities in Brazil and to develop a plan to monitor the implementation of its 10 commitments to end violence against children.
Members concluded that they have a role in promoting universal peace and eradicating poverty as contained in the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda. The partnership between Pastoral da Criança and Arigatou International, GNRC in Brazil will strengthen the community’s resilience towards ending violence against children.

With more than 30 years of practice in and around Chicago, I have been exposed to a unique mixture of building types and design situations. This experience has allowed me to develop an inherent passion for problem solving and design that is best described as eclectic. This can mean many things, however, in my practice this means each project is exposed to an exclusive set of ideals that allow for the complete investigation and development of thought that will result in a uniquely individual solution that is instinctive, intuitive and logical in its conclusion of form, function, style and detail. This approach has served me well in the realization of many projects of varying uses, scales, complexities and styles.
After receiving a Bachelor of Science degree in Architectural Studies in 1983 and a Master of Architecture in 1985 from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, I moved to Chicago to join the architectural firm of Banks/Eakin Architects. This small 8-person studio was well known for many residential and hospitality projects. In 1987, I moved on to join the 6-person firm of Langdon & Woodhouse, Architects. Work at this small studio continued to expose me to many diverse projects including several private residences, the U.S. headquarters for the international Robert Bosch Corporation and the Hole in the Wall Gang Camp, a summer camp for terminally ill children philanthropically developed by Paul Newman and funded by his Newman’s Own corporation.
With an urge to work on projects of a different scale, and to experience a different type of office environment, I joined the larger more corporate structured offices of VOA Associates. From 1989 to 1996, I was an integral part of many civic and institutional projects, including the redevelopment of Chicago’s Navy Pier, the expansion of McCormick Place South Exhibit Hall/Grand Concourse, and several projects for the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and the Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology in Terre Haute, Indiana. The Alumni Sports and Recreation Center at Rose-Hulman received a Distinguished Building Award, Citation of Merit, from The Chicago Chapter of the AIA in 1999.
During theyears of 1996 to 1998, in an exploratory exercise to experience work as a freelance architect, I began consulting on special assignments at two of Chicago’s most prestigious architectural firms, Perkins & Will and DeStefano + Partners. During my time with each firm, the consulting work would eventually evolve into a fulltime position. At Perkins & Will, I was instrumental in the realization of the Ruth M. Rothstein CORE Center at Cook County-Rush Hospital, which is a clinic for the prevention, care, and research of HIV/AIDS and other infectious diseases. At DeStefano + Partners I accepted a senior position on the team responsible for River East Center, a 2 million square foot mixed-use retail, entertainment, hotel and residential development, completed by the MCL Companies.
At this point, having worked in the larger corporate architectural office environment for the better part of ten years, I decided to return to the smaller studio-like practice that I so enjoyed at the beginning of my career. Therefore, in 1999 I began work at Langdon Associates as the firm’s Senior Associate. While working on a variety of projects, including an urban park for the City of Chicago’s Department of Cultural Affairs, a 20-year master plan for Andrews University, in Berrien Springs, Michigan, and many residential projects of various types, sizes and budgets, I was exposed to and fully involved with every facet of the small architectural practice. This experience provided the strong foundation and confidence I needed to establish my own studio.
Since opening studioCJF in January of 2003, it is the small, interesting, detailed project that consumes my focus and defines the character of my practice. Although collaborating with other firms on larger projects is always a possibility, it has been my decision to concentrate on residential and small commercial projects that provide unique, challenging and creative solutions to solve an often difficult situation, all while maintaining a high level of client interaction and professional service. One project that illustrates this best is the “Michigan Residence” profiled on the "Projects" page. This custom single family residence on a challenging but nearly idyllic site in Saugatuck, Michigan was a second home for a Chicago couple. Another project type that I find particularly interesting is the renovation of an individual condominium unit. This project type often combines two or more adjacent units, either horizontally or vertically, into a larger more spacious home. Combining adjacent units requires the experience, knowledge and ability to manipulate and exploit the sophisticated and often chaotic conditions of an existing structure and the systems embedded within.
studioCJF.inc is the embodiment of a dream long coming… A dream of a small private practice that wears many hats, with focus and concentration on personal service, attention to detail and inspired solutions. I strongly believe there is a creative solution to everything.

From what they were guessing in that article, it didn't sound radically faster.
As a VR user, I need all the horsepower I can get, but would only upgrade if it give a worthwhile boost from my 1080.
Bought 2 Titan Xp in December trying not to read any of the article of the new volta chip set cards to not be tempted to upgrade again, trying to keep them for at least 2-3 years.
What CPU you have with them?

Police hunting the killer of student Marsha McDonnell have appealed for two new potential witnesses to come forward.
A man and a woman took a 111 bus from Kingston, south-west London, which left for Hounslow at 11.44pm on February 3.
Marsha took the next bus on that route and was found dead near her home in nearby Hampton in the early hours of February 4.
She had been hit over the head three times with a blunt instrument.
The man and woman got on their bus at traffic lights a minute after it had set out from Kingston bus garage.
A Scotland Yard spokesman said they sat together in the downstairs rear seat on the nearside and left the bus together at Hampton Station at 11.57pm.
"The incident room would like to speak to these two people as they may have seen something of interest to the inquiry. They are asked to contact the incident room at Hendon on 020 8358 0100."
Further to previous appeals, two outstanding passengers from the same bus Marsha travelled on have now come forward to police, meaning all 11 have been traced.

Moderator: Ladies and gentlemen, good day and welcome to the Sixth Bi-Monthly Monetary Policy Conference with Researchers and Analysts. As a reminder, all participants' lines will be in the listen-only mode and there will be an opportunity for you to ask questions. Should you need assistance during this conference call, please signal an operator by pressing '*' then '0' on your touchtone phone. Please note that this conference is being recorded. Ladies and gentlemen, I now hand the conference over to Mr. Jose Kattoor. Thank you and over to you, sir.
Jose Kattoor: Thank you. We start off with the first question, this question is from Rahul Choksey, and the question is- for week ended 4th and 11th January center WMA was over 75% of WMA limit, but no cash management bills were announced, but two cash management bills are done so far in February when most likely Centre is again over the 75% threshold. Can RBI throw light on how these two scenarios are read differently where only in February CMBs were warranted and not in January?
Shaktikanta Das: I am Shaktikanta Das, Governor, RBI speaking. Now you see the government makes its cash flow projections in consultation with the Reserve Bank of India because RBI is the manager of government debt and government cash balances. So, normally, as long as there is visible space in Ways and Means Advances (WMA), resort to Cash Management Bills (CMBs) is usually not being undertaken by the government. So, that is one factor which has to be kept in mind. And the second point is that in January there was not enough space in the budget provision that was made for CMBs in the current year, but subsequently, the budget provision has now been made in the revised estimate and in the supplementary, so, that opens up opportunity for additional CMBs and that is how it has been undertaken in the current month.
Jose Kattoor: Thank you, governor. The next question is from Vivek Ramachandran. The question is- the FPI investment in debt has slowed down after notification of norms on concentration group limits last year. This was an important source of funds, particularly for lower-rated companies. Government had announced that norms will be relaxed, but no changes have been done so far. Can RBI indicate by when the norms will be amended?
Shaktikanta Das: We have announced, if you recall, I am sure all the participants would have seen the Part-B of the statement, which we released earlier today and also the press conference when this question also had come up to which I had replied. I am not going into the other remarks which we have made that something has slowed down only because of this- because there could be multiple factors for step up or slowdown of inflows, but having recognized the situation broadly and other factors, the 20% limit with regard to an FPI’s exposure to a single company or to the group companies, that 20% limit we have announced that it is being removed and the circular in this regard will be issued sometime next week.
Jose Kattoor: Thank you, governor. The next question is from Sandeep Yadav. The question is- in 2015 the then RBI governor had indicated that the preferred real interest rate target was 1.5% to 2% and the preferred manner to calculate real interest was spread between one year treasury rate and expected inflation one year down the line. In that context, he is asking two more questions – One, has RBI continued to track real interest rates in the same manner? Two, in view of the global interest rates having decreased, has RBI changed its target for real interest rates?
Shaktikanta Das: Well, I will request Deputy Governor, Viral Acharya to reply.
Dr. Viral V. Acharya: Thank you, governor. You might want to see the press conference recording as well where I partly answered this question. In short, we do not target a specific real rate of interest, our mandated target is actually the realized headline inflation. Of course, real interest rate does play an important role in influencing economic activity and it is the factor that goes into our models. Real interest rates are more closely related theoretically to core inflation rather than actually to food and fuel inflation. So that also has to be kept in mind. Nevertheless, we do track real interest rates, there is no one standard accepted definition for it, the one that you referred to was introduced at some point by Governor Rajan; others- simply you look at repo rate and subtract last month’s inflation from headline inflation, and some people take the repo rate and subtract the one year headline inflation from it. My sense is most of these measures over time should co-move and as I said we do take into account the impact of the real interest rate on headline inflation in our projections; however, it is not something whose specific level we target in particular.
Jose Kattoor: Thank you Dr. Acharya. The next question is from Dhaval Gada. Is there a timeline by when RBI intends to come up with the guidelines for holding company structure and non-banking operations which banks can undertake? This question will be taken by DG, N.S. Vishwanathan.
N.S. Vishwanathan: I want to clarify that there are already clear instructions on what non-banking activities banks can do, it is very clearly set out in the Act and various guidelines have been issued in this regard. With regard to guidelines on holding company structure, we are working on it and as and when ready, we will be able to give it out.
Jose Kattoor: Thank you, DG Mr. Vishwanathan. Next question is also from the same person- Dhaval Gada. Is RBI looking to tweak transaction fees on credit cards in line with the move undertaken for debit cards? This question will be taken by DG, Mr. BP Kanungo.
BP Kanungo: Thank you, Mr. Gada. There is no question of tweaking because in the first place Reserve Bank does not fix the Merchant Discount Rate (MDR) for the credit cards at all and the rationale for that being, in case of the credit card, there is a credit risk that the bank who is issuing the card undertakes, which is not the case in case of debit cards. So we have been fixing the merchant discount rate in our effort to give a fillip to digitize and push and have no intention of going into other areas like credit cards, and for the same reason we do not interchange that changes hands between the acquiring bank and the other agencies also.
Jose Kattoor: Thank you DG Kanungo. The next question is from Chandan Thimmaiah. The question goes like this- as IMF gave cues of global economic down in next two financial years, how likely it will affect Indian market with respect to pre-supposed India's better growth than other countries? According to budget estimates fiscal deficit will be 3.4% for current and next financial year, how this can affect private capital expenditure considering crowding out effect and its effects on employment generation?
A similar question is there from Arjun Nagarajan. The question is into FY20 with the Capex projections/ borrowing and the RBI’s own FY20 growth projections, would the RBI be concerned about a scenario of crowding out of private sector activity? This question will be taken by our Governor.
Shaktikanta Das: If you look at the fiscal deficit figures for ‘18-19 and ‘19-20, now, both the years as you know are 3.4%. But for ‘18-19 actually if you go to the second decimal point, it is 3.37% and for ‘19-20 it is 3.35%. Now these numbers are broadly in alignment with the path of fiscal consolidation which was set out earlier by the government. Now with regard to crowding out effect in the market when the government’s borrowing programme is implemented, again, I repeat, as a debt manager of government borrowing, before the beginning of every year and also before the beginning of every half year, Reserve Bank and the finance ministry, we have meetings where the borrowing programme is carefully discussed and the borrowing programme is announced in a manner that it goes through in a non-disruptive manner. So therefore, as in earlier years, this year also I think sometime next month the borrowing meeting will be held between RBI and the government and it will be our endeavor to ensure that the borrowing programme goes through without causing any disruption and minimizing, rather, eliminating the impact of any crowding out of private investment. I must also add that the composition of public expenditure in the budget is such that it is likely to crowd in private investment. On employment generation effect, I think this question is not for RBI to really reply and we do not have the data to base our reply on.
Jose Kattoor: The next question is from Abhijit Sakhare. Will the RBI consider harmonization of regulations among private banks with respect to licensing or shareholding norms? The question will be taken by DG Shri N.S. Vishwanathan.
N.S. Vishwanathan: Thank you, Mr. Sakhare. This matter is sub-judice in a court case, so we would not want to venture at this time.
Jose Kattoor: The next question is by Alpesh Mehta. His question is- media reports suggest holding company structure for financial institution. What is RBI’s view on this? DG Shri N.S. Vishwanathan may like to reply.
N.S. Vishwanathan: I think I replied in response to the earlier question from Mr. Dhaval Gada where I said there is already clarity with regard to what non-banking activities banks can do and with regard to guidelines for holding company structure, we are working on it and we will come out with an update.
Jose Kattoor: Again, a question from Alpesh Mehta. This question is about NBFCs. In the light of current liquidity situation for NBFCs and episodic instances of liquidity issue for NBFC-NDSIs, could any specific category be considered for NBFCs, especially with respect to accessing liability from retail segment? The question will be taken by DG, Shri N.S. Vishwanathan.
N.S. Vishwanathan: If I interpret your question, I think you are asking whether we will allow a category of NBFCs to accept public deposits. The current stance of not allowing NBFCs to accept public deposits is something that has been on for more than 15 to 20 years. At present, there is no thinking in terms of changing that.
Jose Kattoor: Shri Alpesh Mehta is asking one more question and this is also about NBFCs. The question is- there have been different regulations for the same product for different segments, example, (a) banks cannot lend more than INR 20 lakhs, (b) NBFCs have norm of 50% LTV, whereas (c) for mutual funds it is different. Would there be harmonization of regulations going forward? The question will be taken by DG, Shri N.S. Vishwanathan.
N.S. Vishwanathan: What we have tried to harmonize is regulations between various types of financial service institutions. I think given that they serve different purposes, we should not look at =across products harmonization between various segments in the financial services industry.
Jose Kattoor: The next question is from Abhishek Saraf. He has asked five questions again on NBFCs. The first one is exactly which kind of NBFCs would be affected by change in the risk weight guidelines by making it linked to credit rating?
N.S. Vishwanathan: One, as you would have seen in the past policy announcements, we have said that the certain categories of NBFCs are already having risk weight linked to the rating. All those which were not linked to the ratings will now get linked to rating. So across the board, all NBFCs will be linked to rating, the exception being Core Investment Companies (CICs). I think there is a clarity on whom this will apply and whom this will not apply as far as the changes in regard to credit rating.
Jose Kattoor: I will continue with his questions. The next question is- it seems that this change in risk weighting guidelines will not apply to housing finance NBFCs, infra NBFCs and deposit taking NBFCs. Is this assessment correct?
N.S. Vishwanathan: As I said, only the differential is that wherever there was 100% risk weight for an NBFC, all those NBFCs will now have their exposure linked to rating.
Jose Kattoor: (c) If yes, will the current risk weighting stay for NBFCs?
N.S. Vishwanathan: I have given answer to that in the previous answer.
Jose Kattoor: (d) What is the current risk weight mechanism for these NBFCs?
N.S. Vishwanathan: As I said, for the NBFCs other than asset finance companies, infrastructure development funds, infrastructure finance companies, risk weight was not linked to rating, now they are all getting linked to rating. I think my response to the first question answers the question.
Jose Kattoor: One last part of his question is how will the risk weight change from 100% especially for higher rated NBFCs post the operationalization of the new guidelines?
N.S. Vishwanathan: Under the Basel guidelines as we have issued to banks, AAA-rated exposure to a corporate will be risk weighted at 20%, AA-rated will be 30%. Same system will apply for these NBFCs as well.
Jose Kattoor: The next question is from Alpesh Mehta. Two parts to his questions; one, would the deadline for IND AS implementation for banks, i.e., from 1st April 2019, remain intact or are there any plans to reconsider that? The second part is- what is your assessment for NBFCs IND AS implementation? Our Governor will be responding to this.
Shaktikanta Das: I will reply to the first part. The operationalization of the IND AS guidelines require certain legislative amendments. So as and when the law is amended by the parliament, then it will be followed up by action in RBI to operationalize and implement the system. With regard to assessment for NBFCs, it is something which is on the table, the banks have already been sensitized to prepare themselves to implement it and as and when the legislative process is through, this should be getting operationalized and many banks have already taken steps to comply with the requirement.
N.S. Vishwanathan: On the NBFCs, one, we have made it very clear in the past that implementation of IND AS is as per the schedule given by MCA and therefore IND AS is applicable to them from the financial year ’18-19. We are looking at what the NBFCs are doing and as we have mentioned earlier also, if we find there is too much of divergence in the way the standards are being applied, then we will think in terms of bringing in some change in regulation.
Jose Kattoor: A couple of questions both on core inflation, so I will take these two questions together. This is from Ishan Daga. The monetary policy committee has turned its focus now on growth from inflation, citing the relative stability in the latter. However, as the core inflation still remain at higher levels, how this factor will attribute to the committee’s future policy decisions? This is the first of the questions. The second one is- how does the RBI explain the fact that output gap is negative yet core inflation (excluding housing) is very persistent at close to 6%. Isn’t higher core inflation reflection of better pricing for corporates and better aggregate demand situation? These two questions will be taken by Dr. Michael Patra.
Dr. Michael Patra: Analysis of core inflation and its evolution with the risks around it are already incorporated in our projections. So, when the path of headline inflation is set out for the next 12-months, we have also taken into account the analytics relating to core and its dynamics including its elevated level and its stickiness.
Jose Kattoor: The next question is from Shantanu Mudgal. We have seen that in currency in circulation increased by ₹ 74,000 crore in April 2018. This year too the trend may continue, further compounded by currency leakage due to general elections. RBI has currently indicated that they expect to inject liquidity via OMOs till March. If the currency in circulation continues to increase in April, would RBI consider extending the OMOs into FY19-20?
Shaktikanta Das: This question I had replied during the press conference earlier today. Two aspects: One is there are several factors which impact the demand for currency in circulation and consequently on the liquidity situation. Secondly, the liquidity situation as I said earlier today, we are constantly monitoring it very closely, and as and when steps are required to be taken by the RBI using various policy instruments, you have referred to OMO; the quantum of future OMOs or for that matter measures for dealing with the liquidity, this will depend on the evolving liquidity situation in the market.
Jose Kattoor: The next question is from Arjun Nagarajan. He says- Thank you for taking my question. Firstly, I'd like to take this opportunity to congratulate Mr. Das and his team for making it a point to answer as many questions in the press conference as possible. This increase in communication is greatly appreciated and putting to ease market concerns. The RBI has made a note of some opening up of the output gap. However, its growth trajectory for FY20 has seen an upward revision. Would it be right to read this as a near-term discrepancy then? The question will be taken by Dr. Michael Patra.
Michael D. Patra: The RBI has estimated the output gap for the period right up to the second quarter of 2018-19 for which we have data from the CSO. This estimate suggests that the output gap is modestly negative and is set to close over the coming quarters and this has been factored into our growth projections. Also, I need to correct you on your comment that the growth trajectory for financial year ending March ’20 has seen an upward revision. If you will refer to the latest monetary policy report of October 2018, GDP growth has been projected at 7.6% for 2019-20. So the current projection of 7.4% is a downward revision.
Jose Kattoor: The next question is from Vikas Kotha. You have assumed normal monsoon for 2019 for the food inflation projections. How reliable are these monsoon forecasts historically and in the case of deficit monsoon, how much upside risk to the food inflation do you see?
Michael D Patra: We have assumed the normal monsoon in our projections and this creeps into a base line forecast. Should the monsoon be in deficit, there will be an upside risk to inflation. And this will be factored into the balance of risks, which is reflected in our fan chart.
Jose Kattoor: We will now take questions, Aman, from the line.
Moderator: Sure, thank you very much. Ladies and gentlemen, we will now begin the questions for the audio participants. The first question is from the line of Nilanjan Karfa from Jefferies. Please go ahead.
Nilanjan Karfa: Two simple questions: First is on the real estate sector. We do hear from people that the sector is extremely distressed, could be because of multiple reasons, lower sales or lack of liquidity. Any thoughts from RBI? How do you look at the sector and what can be done from RBI’s perspective? The second question is- recently we took three banks out of the Prompt Corrective Action (PCA). Any thoughts on what was the urgency in doing that specifically given when the policy was formulated, the plan was to look at the audited financials and not to be done in the middle of the year?
Shaktikanta Das: I will answer the second part first, thereafter I will request my colleague, Deputy Governor, M.K. Jain to supplement. The decision with regard to the three banks which have been taken out of the PCA framework that is based on the quarterly results, which have been published by the banks. And as you know the quarterly results are also subject to audit and once the Board approved the quarterly results, then only on that basis action was taken. In respect of one bank, after the Board had approved the third quarter results, the very next day there was capital infusion by the government which the bank brought to our notice that this has been done and that was also taken into consideration to take out these three PCA banks from the list of PCAs. Any decision on the PCA banks will be taken on the basis of data and obviously it goes without saying it is not a matter of discretion but it is basically data driven. I think Mr. Jain may like to supplement some points.
M.K. Jain: I would like to clarify couple of things that first, the banks are brought under PCA framework the moment they breach any parameter under the framework. The banks which were taken out of the PCA, they were not in breach of the parameters of PCA framework except Return on Assets, which is reflected in the capital adequacy. So that is very important and we have seen the quarterly audited numbers as well and we have seen the qualitative improvement in these banks and that is the reason we have taken these banks out of PCA.
Shaktikanta Das: With regard to the real estate sector, the current status of this sector, in fact, all sectors including the real estate sector- they are factored into our inflation and growth projections.
Moderator: Thank you. The next question is from the line of Shubhada Rao from Yes Bank. Please go ahead.
Shubhada Rao: I have this question regarding the RBI’s further rate action scenario. Inflation trajectory has been significantly revised lower, particularly for the first half of fiscal ’20. For future rate action or change in stance, which of the following two factors is likely to drive RBI’s action? First, the breach of this newly revised inflation trajectory, either upside or downside breach, or, a broader comfort that despite this breach the inflation is likely to hover close to 4%. So would the rate actions be on the horizon of 4% inflation trajectory or basis the newly revised inflation trajectory?
Shaktikanta Das: Any answer to your question at this point of time would be, may I say to some extent, it would be somewhat speculative. Now, in my statement which I made during the press conference there is a paragraph that I read out twice. I will just check out the paragraph number and tell you, where I said clearly that the decisions of MPC in this regard will have to be data-driven and in consonance with the primary objective of monetary policy to maintain price stability while keeping in mind the objective of growth. Just prior to this statement I had said in my statement today that the shift in stance of monetary policy from calibrated tightening to neutral also provides flexibility and the room to address challenges to sustain growth of Indian economy over the coming months as long as the inflation outlook remains benign. So that would give you a broad sense of the thinking, but let me also mention that all decisions as I said will be data-driven and within the ambit of the Reserve Bank of India Act and based on available data and as the data flows in, two months down the road we will have the next MPC meeting and then to be fair to the other members of MPC, this needs to be deliberated and then the decision of the MPC will be made known.
Moderator: Thank you. The next question is from the line of Jayasree Ram from Karvy Stock Broking. Please go ahead.
Jayasree Ram: The difference between CPI and WPI is about 160 bps and our interest rate decisions are more aligned towards CPI. So would you be also considering WPI?
Dr. Michael D. Patra: RBI Act which was amended in 2016 clearly specifies the target for inflation in terms of the headline CPI and we are bound by the Act.
Moderator: Thank you. The next question is from the line of Hardik Shah from Reliance Mutual Fund. Please go ahead.
Hardik Shah: Wanted to understand that the change in the NBFC categories linked to rating, now same will be applicable for the calculation of LCR for the banks and earlier the banks were not allowed to consider the NBFC exposure for the calculation of LCR, now with revised risk weight capital, whether it will be considered for LCR calculation or not?
N.S. Vishwanathan: LCR as you know is the requirement to have high quality liquid assets to meet 30-days stress liquidity outgoes. I am not very clear what your question is.
Moderator: Thank you. The next question is from the line of Nikhil Gupta from Motilal Oswal. Please go ahead.
Nikhil Gupta: I have two quick questions: Firstly, CSO released revised data for FY’17 and ’18 and we learn that GDP growth was much better than previously estimated and in particular construction sector grew at 6-year highest pace in FY’17. I would want to know if RBI has any view on them? Secondly, as the debt manager of the government, we know that states and Centre both have plan for record borrowings in Feb and March, Centre is also planning to borrow ₹ 480 billion in March. So I just wanted to know when will tentatively RBI look at the need for liquidity support in the market if required?
Dr. Viral Acharya: We do not have any view on the CSO. We need CSO data release, we need more details. On the second question, I think as governor replied at the press conference, our liquidity decisions are reviewed certainly at every weekly or fortnightly horizon, in fact, internally even at a higher frequency than that. What exactly we plan to do will depend on a variety of factors that drive the durable liquidity needs such as currency in circulation, for example. So, the exact decision on liquidity support and the instrument we choose will depend on those evolving conditions. We have already telegraphed the plan for the three OMOs for week two, three, four of February for ₹ 12,500 crore each.
Moderator: Thank you. The next question is from the line of Vibha Patra from Fair Connect. Please go ahead.
Vibha Patra: My question is on some of the large NBFCs, HFCs, their disbursements have actually declined by over 90% and these are the companies which are also funding to self-employed and SMEs and without really resorting to taxpayers money which is what public sector banks are doing and they were doing this business quite sustainably but because of liquidity conditions, their funding is really dried out. So there is the strong case by RBI to define the qualifying assets, say, ticket size, delinquency and open some kind of window. So right now what is happening is what we see is banks are okay with liquidity, but they are not really lending to NBFCs because no one is really confident which one is solvent or which one is not. My question is that larger NBFCs and HFCs who are lending to SMEs are in dire need of liquidity whereas RBI measures liquidity only for banks. So it is really disrupting the economy. So is there a case for RBI to open a special window where you kind of define qualifying assets and these NBFCs can borrow from the central bank against these assets because banks, mutual funds, insurance companies are all very shaky and there is no confidence there.
Dr. Viral Acharya: I think this issue has come up quite a bit over the last six months I would say starting with the default of IL&FS. We have looked quite carefully at the data and our assessment is that since the peak of the stress in the short-term commercial paper markets in September and October, things have eased quite comfortably, they have eased especially for the better quality NBFCs and HFCs. So I think what is happening is that the liquidity conditions that had been extremely in surplus mode post-demonetisation have finally reached some normal level so that mutual funds and others who are providing capital to these entities are finally doing quality sorting themselves. I think that needs to be allowed to happen but nevertheless we remain watchful and if we think that there are extremely healthy borrowers who are also struggling with the funding, then we would consider that.
Jose Kattoor: Thank you, Dr. Acharya. We conclude the session here.
Moderator: Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, with this we conclude today’s conference call. Thank you all for joining us and you may now disconnect your lines.

This is the time of year when we review applications from prospective interns. For 2019 we have up to five places available. We hear below from some successful former interns who were offered permanent positions with the company.
Jonny Winterburn: "Helios does well in terms of retaining the interns it wants. Typically, 50% of them will accept offers and return to work for us full time. This is not only down to a friendly team. A lot of work goes on behind the scenes to give them interesting, meaningful projects that will stretch them, At the same time, those projects must be self-contained and simple enough to enable interns to take ownership of their work. I ask colleagues to remember that not all interns have aviation backgrounds – they need breaking in gently! The types of projects we ask them to do varies hugely, from database development, article research and drafting, system modelling to field observations of aircraft on approach. Having said that, assessment is an important part of the process both for them and for us. Accordingly, we routinely assess problem solving, time management, enthusiasm, delivery, teamwork, and presentation skills. These are key attributes to cultivate, if an internship at Helios is on your agenda."
Fiona Ribbons: "I joined Helios as an intern in the summer leading up to my final year at Imperial College, London. Whilst interning, I was pleasantly surprised by how much freedom I was given to direct my own projects; the ability to take ownership of my work right away was something that really attracted me to the company. My experience was enhanced by the uniquely talented, diverse team, that made me feel valued and welcome from day one. After graduating with a Masters in Environmental Engineering and Business Management the following year, I was pleased to return to Helios as an Analyst Consultant in late 2017. I have already been involved in a wide range of projects, from helping organise cross-industry stakeholder meetings in Brussels, to aiding in benchmarking activities for Air Navigational Service Providers and working on safety projects in the Middle East. The real selling point for me in coming back was the opportunities the job presents, in terms of travel, client exposure, and rapid career development. If you're looking for an exciting, fast-paced career, where every day is different, Helios is probably right for you."
To be a successful intern you will need to contact us by early January in the year you want to work for us. Write a persuasive cover letter to your CV, prepare for a short interview and then, if successful, apply yourself to the projects you are given. Don't hesitate to ask questions or ask for help. We want you to succeed and will do our best to support you. It's important to us that interns enjoy their time at Helios. They could be potential future analysts, and we want them to leave feeling fulfilled and positive about their experience. They are ambassadors for our brand and we put a great deal of effort and tailoring into the internship projects. Our aim is to mark Helios out as a great place to work, and to evaluate the suitability of interns for permanent positions.

It’s time for a little soul, well more like a great amount of soul with just the right touch of rock. Electric Soul Magic Vol. 2 by Joe Marson is exactly that; a well crafted musical machine and exact reason we are featuring the artist yet again as a FrostWire Creative Commons feature. If you feel like listening/downloading his first feature click here.
“Melded together with guitar riffs that evoke Hendrix’s essence, Marson creates timeless music that bridges the gap between the influential decades that inspire his songwriting.” Indeed some of those elements can be heard in some of Marson’s songs. According to the artist bio, he also had placed his sounds in major films like Marvel’s Deadpool as well as popular television series like FX’s Justified and Netflix’s Bloodline. So be sure to be on the lookout.
No Retreat starts off with a dark guitar riffs that at times remind me of the sounds of Blood On My Name by The Brothers Bright. However that comparison ends at the quick 8-9 seconds of the intro. The songs shows off the more gritty side of artist’s voice. It’s deep and at in just few places merges the line between soul and blues.
In To The Shore you will certainly get a feeling of Marson’s vocals. The long notes take his voice away, and they are quickly followed by some sweet rock like guitar sounds. There is a certain dark softness to the song, its soulful and a perfect way to get to know the rest of the album.
Electric Soul Magic Vol.2 shows just how much Joe Marson advanced in his musical career since we last featured his albums.
Plus being our featured free download there is no excuse to dive right into the music itself. We hope you enjoy our newest selection!

We set off early on Sunday morning; as advised by several boaters, that it would be ‘safer’ because potential troublemakers in parts of Leeds would still be tucked up in bed. While we were casting off, we noticed a C&RT notice saying we’d been mooring on a 72 hours mooring! We had to smile, to think we’d been a little nervous, thinking we were mooring on a ‘one hour’ waterpoint for two days.
John did the second lock which wasn’t uneventful. A wide-beamed boat had just come down the lock, and was moored up to the lock landing. With the wind making manoeuvring difficult, we took Cyan around the wide-beam, and into the open lock. We needed access to the lock landing so John could jump off Cyan. There was a bit of a stand-off with the boater telling us to climb the lock ladders! No way! We needed the lock landing. The boater knew full well he was wrong, so he had no choice but to move his boat out of the way. Cyan was reversed onto the lock landing, and John jumped off. I took Cyan once again into the lock!
Several weeks ago, as we entered our first lock on the Huddersfield Narrow Canal, John who was doing the locking shouted down to me in the lock, that he needed the ‘C&RT handcuff key’ to unlock the locking mechanism. At that time, while trying to throw the key up to John, I missed, and the key hit the wall and fell down….. but that was then! So when John said he needed a handcuff key, visions of disaster conjured up. The pole hook was out of reach, which meant this time I couldn’t attach the key to pole, and pass it up to John. John certainly didn’t trust me to throw the key again, so he laid down on the edge of the lock, while I stood on the locker and stretched up to hand him the key. Situations like this certainly makes for an ‘interesting’ life afloat.
Leaving the lock was a nightmare! We came out of the lock in an area surrounded by tall buildings, and moored up boats. The wind was swirling around the area, and it looked like the world and his dog were watching from inside the Hilton’s restaurant, the patrons were having their breakfast.
Panic stricken, “Hurry up John, close the gates and get on board”! That never happened, and controlling Cyan in this area was a nightmare; I know how a sudden wind can push Cyan along, even sideways, uncontrollably. Can you believe it, John even stopped to chat to another boater! There was nothing left, but for me to add some throttle, making it easier to steer Cyan, with the result of Cyan cruising further away. Eventually John caught up, and I got off to tackle lock 3.
Luckily, while working the lock a lock-keeper turned up. That’s always a cheery sight! He explained we’d now passed out of the area of Leeds we were a little apprehensive about. He explained the area had since been revitalised, and is now much ‘safer’!
The Lockie asked where we were making for, and offered some travelling advice. He also said he’d phone on to his colleague on the next ‘patch’ who’d help us up the two ‘3-staircase’ locks.
The picture is our view approaching the first of our two ‘3-staircase’ locks, with Lockies waiting for us, complete with a dozen or so Gongoozlers.
Picture below shows us in the middle lock of the 3-staircase locks, with two Lockies above.
Note the fierce swell of water bubbling up beneath us, lifting Cyan.
This is the view, looking back, from the top lock.
While it was great to experience the Huddersfield, Calder & Hebble Navigation, and the Aire & Calder Navigation, it’s nice to be on a ‘sort of normal’ canal that has plenty of water underneath, and frequent mooring areas.
Our journey was really enjoyable, the architecture is fantastic.
Such gorgeous scenery! Complete with it’s obstacles, such as the builder’s bag innocently waiting by the bridge for us to sail over and tangle around Cyan’s propeller.
Why do yobs want to deface our countryside with graffiti?
Look…. the ‘Rhodies’ are out!
We’ve moored at Rodley Wharf, just before a swing bridge, and almost in the car park of the ‘Rodley Barge’ free house, a CAMRA affiliated pub!
Exciting moments this morning, waking up to escape bullocks on the other side of the canal. From our side hatch we watched with amusement the dog walkers and joggers, come to a sudden stop, and ‘leaping’ behind a gate. It was even more amusing when the farmer turned up, this time it was the ‘delinquents’ turn to come to a sudden stop when they saw the farmer, quickly turning around on all four heals, and running back again down the canal, presumable to where they escaped from.
Have you picked up the stoppage above Apperley Bridge at Dobson’s Locks today? I’m probably a bit late, you’re maybe already there!

==Foreword== This is an updated version of the design proposal for integrating asset concept into Blender, as well as report of current work done so far and roadmap of future development. Some areas are already quite well defined (and partly implemented), others remain more fuzzy. Design always evolve while you actually implement it, anyway, issues you did not foresee need to be fixed, new ideas come while writing (and using!) code, etc. Any comment/critic/suggestion is welcome. This page will be regularly updated as work progress, unless some radical change in plans happen, in which case a new version shall rather be added. Also, a “code design” part is available at the end - this one is really technical and can totally be skipped if you’re not interested in dirty implementation details. ==Abstract== Here are the key ideas behind current proposal: * We do not define an asset management tool in Blender, only an API to communicate with asset engines. * Blender does not need to define what is an asset, how it behaves, etc. It globally sticks to our current library system (link/append). * We define three 'areas' of asset handling: browsing/loading them, 'editing' local version of already loaded assets, and editing/defining assets themselves. * Hence, only a few parts of Blender are asset-aware. Currently, the file browser, and probably the outliner too (for locally used assets management). And our loading/linking/appending code needs some changes, of course, but current general behavior/principles are kept. * Thus, we keep .blend as data storage. ** However, we introduce the concept of 'virtual library', to allow mere image/fonts/videos/audio files to be directly considered as assets too. ==Asset== What is an asset? Nothing and everything. From Blender PoV, there are no assets. Blender only knows of datablocks (objects, meshes, materials, textures, images, etc.). From user side, an asset can be anything he would like to manage 'as a whole', to store it somewhere for later reuse, to share, to import, etc. Can be materials, objects or groups defining a character, … And there are also some really advanced and specialized asset concepts, like e.g. parametric ones used for 'interior design' (to build your own kitchen from basic pre-defined 'bricks'), with complex behavior each time you add or even move those 'assets' in your scene. Blender cannot define an 'asset' type (datablock) that would handle all that kind of possibilities. It's just out of the scope. Thus, the concept of asset shall be as shallow and minimum as possible within Blender. "What" is an asset, how it behaves, etc. is defined by the asset engine. However, there is something about assets that must be defined from Blender side: a minimum set of metadata, used to identify and list them. Here are currently proposed ones, based on mere file metadata (i.e. what we already have in current filebrowser): * repository. ** repositories have an optional path. * asset. ** assets have a name and description. ** assets have tags (for filter/categorization purposes). ** assets have preview. * variants (e.g. lowpoly, highpoly, …). ** variants have a name and description. * revisions (for asset engines preserving history, like BAM…). ** revisions have no name (their uuid shall be enough usually). ** revisions have a comment (e.g. commit message). ** revisions have a timestamp. * views (e.g. jpg, png and exr versions of a same image texture). ** views have a name and description. ** views have a timestamp (which shall be the same as the parent revision one) and size info. Repositories, assets, variants, revisions and views all have uuids (128bits numbers). Blender identifies an asset by its asset engine and its repository/asset/variant/revision/views uuids. It should be noted that while this five-levels tree data structure does define to some extent an asset storage layout, it is absolutely **not** required to follow that layout. For the most part, Blender does not care at all about what those five levels actually are, nor what they actually mean, so asset engine are free to use them pretty much as they like, generate dummy data for levels they do not use, etc. The only strong, mandatory requirement is that the asset engine should always be able to return the path to a single, unique data-block to link, given a set of five uuids. We may also want to add some kind of 'priority' concept to Blender's datablocks. The idea behind it is that you may not want to see by default **all** your loaded datablocks in the Outliner and/or ID listings. IDs would then get a priority level, and user could chose up to which level to show/list IDs. Asset engines could use this trick e.g. to only show the main item of their asset, and 'hide' dependencies from user by default. I’m not quite convinced we really need this, however, afraid it would end making both programmer's and user's life harder, by adding yet another parameter to handle… ==Asset Engine== Conceptually, an asset engine is similar to a render engine. Blender defines a generic "asset API", and each engine implements it as it needs/can. An asset engine **does not handle loading of data itself** (as in, it won't directly give Blender a new mesh data-block, etc.). It is mostly here to gather **metadata** available (see above) and present it to the user through the API. It can also be used to expose data only available remotely, and ensure it's made available locally (as .blend files!) when user actually decides to use it. It may perform some actions on 'assets' once appended/linked, but it does not handle appending/linking itself. In other words: it is similar to some kind of specialized filesystem/database, a bridge between a given asset management system and Blender. This allows three things: * Keep a system that works already quite nicely. * Ensure (to some extent) some security fallback - that is, that .blend files using 'assets' from a given engine do not become completely broken and unusable as soon as this asset engine becomes unreachable for some reason. * Blender can integrate with (ideally) any kind of asset management workflow, from a mere local FS based one to a complex remote storage system, using files or database to store metadata, etc. This implies asset engines are **always** able to provide real valid paths to their data on request, directly usable by Blender core code. Aside from that, an asset engine can be: * A light and simple storage of metadata together with actual .blend files on a local filesystem (or in a single archive even). * An interface to some network service, that allows browsing and downloading asset from the web. * An interface to some VCS-like asset management/storage system (like BAM). * An advanced specialized tool that adds procedural scripting to imported assets (the 'kitchen design' type ;) ). We can also imagine more exotic applications, like a procedural object generator (pretty similar to 'add objects' addons, but it would benefit from a full space to show/list and pre-configure 'assets' before actually doing the generative work). E.g. a 3D fractal generator, a tree generator, … Since asset engines are mere addons, nothing prevent them to add more panels where they need them to provides extra features (like external render engines do, e.g. a material-specialized asset engine could add direct access in material buttons, etc.). ==Usage Design/Specifications== Here are some generic use-case scenarios demonstrating how current work is expected to behave. See also T46059. ===Using Assets=== That is, browsing them, loading them, updating them… that is the part work has been focused on, so far. ====Import==== * Open FileBrowser * Select desired asset engine * Browser requests asset engine to list a root directory ('/' by default). * Asset engine returns a list of entries, which are fake files and directories. * Keep navigating as in a regular file browser that way. * Filter shown entries by type, name etc. as currently, but also select a variant and revision for each entry (how to do so UI-wise is still WIP, aside from mere list buttons there are also ideas like global time 'scrolling' for revisions…) - filtering and sorting is provided by the asset engine (such that it can customize it to its needs). * (Optionally) request the asset engine to 'preload' some entries (assets). This is mainly intended for asset engines handling remote storage, to avoid having to download locally the whole selection at once at the end, but could be used for any other heavy/long pre-processing. * Once actually importing the selection: ** asset engine's pre-import callback is called with selected (entry/variant/revision) items. This callback is expected to return a list of paths to real data. ** import op actually imports those data (pretty much exactly the same way as current code, the only difference is that a reference to asset engine and asset uuid is stored within IDs). ** asset engines's post-import callback is called with imported IDs. This is for advanced processing, like e.g. applying scripts on those IDs (auto-place/resize objects, whatever). ====File Save==== When saving a .blend file, there is nothing special to do. Datablocks from asset engines are saved like any other appended/linked one. ====File Load==== When loading a saved file with some data from asset engine, load code itself is not changed. If the local files from asset engine are still available, asset datablocks will be loaded just like any appended/linked one, otherwise new place-holders system will be used, just as with 'regular' .blend libs (see [missing-libs branch](https://developer.blender.org/diffusion/B/browse/missing-libs/)). However, it is quite likely that some lib files will be missing, or a new version of some asset has become available, etc. To handle that, a second pass (after file itself is loaded) will be run, that will inquire relevant asset engine for datablocks that 'belong' to it, and try to reload them if needed (can also check for asset's revisions, to check the latest one, etc.). ====Loaded Asset Management==== That is, remove an asset from current file, or change its variant/revision. This should be handled by the Outliner (to be consistent with current behavior, outliner is for 'current' data, while filebrowser is to add new data). There is nothing really specific here, aside one key point (which is also needed for the 'reload' behavior described above): for a given ID, we must be able to reload its data. This would also be more than handy even with current system, since it would allow to 'fix' missing libs easily (see [id-remap branch](https://developer.blender.org/diffusion/B/browse/id-remap/)). Note that in addition to always using a manually specified variant/revision of an asset, there will also be an option to use 'default' variant, and 'latest' revision. ===Defining Assets=== That is, creating, editing, deleting assets from the proposed collection. This is the second step of the plan, goal is to first have a relatively 'feature complete' version of 'Using Assets' before tackling it. Also, this may need a new space - not totally convinced it would be wise to extend current filebrowser to support that - and yet it would probably share a lot of code with it. Main task would be to control metadata of the assets (tags, variants, revisions). There are no detailed plans for this part yet, general idea would be to have two views, one showing the 'asset engine' content (i.e. available assets), the other a 'real' file browser. One could then select datablocks from the 'file' part to define a new asset, or add to an existing one, etc. Editing the content itself of the asset (its data) could be done e.g. by launching a new Blender instance to make the edits (using a 'forged' Blender file to contain all the asset data, and only the asset data?). Think this should be left to the asset engine though. ==Current Status and Roadmap== Current work done (in addition to the full filebrowser rewrite already merged in Blender 2.76) is visible in [asset-engine](https://developer.blender.org/diffusion/B/browse/asset-engine/), [missing-libs](https://developer.blender.org/diffusion/B/browse/missing-libs/) and [id-remap](https://developer.blender.org/diffusion/B/browse/id-remap/) branches. The first one contains work done on asset engine itself, the second one the 'place-holder IDs' used to not lose anymore a datablock from a .blend file when it cannot be found on load time, and the third one some (WIP) code to allow replacing a given datablock by another all over Blender. Now in master, most efforts have been spent so far on enhancing the filebrowser (better previews, better behavior when listing datablocks, more filtering options, etc.), and making it ready for assets (reworking how files are listed…). In [asset-engine branch](https://developer.blender.org/diffusion/B/browse/asset-engine/), a first version of needed API has been written, alongside with a (basically working) asset engine demo, codename Amber. ===Roadmap=== First goal currently is to finish work in id-remap (think missing-libs is pretty much master-ready), to allow to relocate libs and reload datablocks from them in real time, without having to save and re-open .blend file. Next step is to finish basics of asset engine part I (that is, browsing/importing libs - already mostly done - and reloading from asset-engine on next opening of the .blend - mostly TODO still, depends on id-remap/missing-libs work too). Once this is done, a quick & dirty 'asset editing' would be nice, to help testers to really play with Amber (since manual editing of JSon files is not **that** fun…). Less urgent TODOs include: * Look at BAM! Think it currently basically is an enhanced blendfiles-aware VCS system (no tags nor variants), but we want to support it as asset engine at the end, so will have to seriously look at it. ==Open Questions== Comments and suggestions are obviously most welcome on any part of above document, but here are some points that still require serious investigation, and some rather speculative possible extensions of asset concept (for when basics are up and running ;) ). * Appended data status is still unclear here. Do we want/need to keep 'asset references' to them? Or do we keep current stance, which is 'once appended, data belongs to current file and is considered 100% local'? Would go for second choice here… * Proxies. I lack knowledge of this part of the code, yet I suspect it could be troublesome? * UI: as said in roadmap section, it will need some serious work (though it’s still a bit early yet imho), will keep UI team updated as soon as we can really start working on this (not a big fan of preliminary mockups, those often forget too much about reality of the code behind UI ;) ). * Do we stick to strict ID datablocks only, or do we accept some other simple storage types directly (like fonts, images, video, audio, etc. files)? In the former case, do we need some more ID types (e.g. for pose collections)? In the later case, this implies our append/link code to be extended slightly. Presets could also be a popular 'asset' type. * Custom asset types? Thinking about advanced, preset/procedural assets here. E.g. we could have assets defining 'clouds' and other smoky things, it should be possible to hack around using current ID types, but maybe defining its own custom types could be useful here. Same goes e.g. if someone wants to propose 'mesh effects' as assets, would take the mesh and apply to it some scripted operations (in post-load callback). Those could be linked to a fake, 'NULL' ID type e.g. during import phase. Could be convenient, but on the other hand I suspect it would add quite a bit of complications, not sure it’s worth it. This is for later anyway. ==Links/References== There have already been some design proposals about assets in Blender, which helped defining/refining current one, found at least those two: * Elubie's quite advanced work: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Elubie/AssetBrowser * A proposal found during random browsing, by blurymind (Todor Imreorov): http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Ref/Proposals/UI/Asset_Manager ==Code Design== This part is rather technical, it aims at describing how things (will) work code-wise. ===File Browser=== This part of the work has been mostly merged in master for blender 2.76. The core concepts of the changes are (listing only those directly related to asset engine project): * Separate completely items listing on browser side (the FileDirEntry... structs in DNA_space_types.h) from actual entries listing (which depends on backend/asset engine used - for mere file browsing, it uses private FileListIntern, which is a shallow wrapper around built-in basic direntry struct from BLI_fileops_types.h). * Bring back direntry/BLI dir listing to what they should be - a shallow wrapper around OS-centric stat struct (previously it was way too overloaded by filebrowser-specific data). * Heavily reduce weight on filebrowser side by only storing a sliding window of the whole available entries (the currently visible ones with some margin, to simplify). * Introduce the entry/variant/revision concept in filebrowser data (by-passed in case of mere file listing of course). Thus, filebrowser is now ready to work with asset engines, at least on the basic level. ===Appending/Linking and Lib Handling=== Here are the points known so far that need to be fixed/improved/implemented in our library handling code (see also T45351): * Being able to import several datablocks at once, of different types and from different files (done, this is in master for Blender 2.76 now). * Being resilient to missing lib data on file opening, and ability to reload those later (mostly done, see below for details). * Being able to query the asset engine off a linked asset to load it again, update it to its latest version, etc. (TODO, will happen through AE API calls and use above work). ====Addressing Missing Linked Data==== The [missing-libs](https://developer.blender.org/diffusion/B/browse/missing-libs/) and [id-remap](https://developer.blender.org/diffusion/B/browse/id-remap/) branches aim at fixing those issues by: * Adding a 'palceholder' ID when a linked datablock cannot be found. This placeholder has the same type as missing real data, but is mostly empty/set to default values. It is tagged by a specific flag, so that user can easily find them (in outliner e.g.). This was rather simple and straightforward to support. * Adding support to 'remap' an ID by another (without having to reload the .blend file). Basics of this idea are easy to implement, but it's a bit tricky to ensure it's fully working, due to the complex interactions between IDs. In essence, current code uses BKE_library_foreach_ID_link() to update all old pointers to some datablock to new ones, and uses/extends UI ID free callbacks (like free_notifier_reference_cb, and replaces free_editor_id_reference_cb by remap_editor_id_reference_cb…). From there it’s rather trivial to add options in Outliner (and/or maybe even any ID UI block) to replace a given ID by another. ====The Sub-Datablocks Issue==== Sub-datablocks or dependency datablocks (sub-IDs), that is, the ones indirectly linked because they are used by an asset (the materials, textures, etc. of an object e.g.). Those create a problem when you want to update/reload an asset: * If the reloaded asset keeps using same sub-IDs, it's OK, nothing to do. * If the reloaded asset uses new/different sub-IDs, we want to delete current ones, and load new ones. * But, if a sub-ID is used by another asset, or is made a 'direct link' by user, then we want to both keep current one and load new one for reloaded asset. **No, we do not!** See below. * And last but not least, some sub-IDs are made 'direct links' during linking process (objects in particular, because they have to be instantiated in current scene). In that specific case, we do not want to keep old instantiated copy! To address that issue, we need a way to know //a posteriori// which ID is used by which asset-ID (even indirectly). We could do that using some BKE's library_query stuff (though I'd expect some complications with the 'objects-made-direct-links' case), or we could cache it (e.g. in a linked list of ID pointers in each ID) during read/link time. Solution is being worked on, here are current proposed points: * No guarantee of any kind is put on sub-IDs of an asset. Users may use those at their own risk, that’s not recommended at all, if not forbidden. * Maybe we should hide sub-IDs from user? That sounds rather complex to setup though... * When reloading an asset, we always (try to) totally update all its sub-IDs, even their non-asset usages. * A same sub-ID may be shared between different assets. However, there is always only one version of a sub-ID in a same .blend file (in other words, reloading one asset that’d update a sub-ID will automatically update that sub-ID for all other assets using it). * Assets break dependency chain. That is, if an asset uses another asset, then that other asset **is not considered as a sub-ID** (since for assets we have versioning etc., all above issues do not apply anymore). It may be independently directly linked/used by user, there may be several version of it in a same .blend file, etc. So asset engines (repository) should make real assets of any sub-IDs user could want to use independently (typical examples: armature object of rigged characters, materials, textures...). Non-asset sub-IDs should only be used by stuff very unlikely to be shared (e.g.: shape keys, probably anim data, etc.). ====Non-ID assets==== This is relatively restricted in current code: only affects datablocks that are thin wrappers around external files (image, font, text and sound). To implement this: * A new 'variant' of Library datablock was added, so-called 'virtual', which basically does not have any path to a Blender file, it only stores some asset repository data. * Then, linking (and asset update) are extended a bit to accept paths of files of relevant types (images, videos, etc.), and: ** Call relevant datablock loader. ** Attach newly loaded ID to virtual library, add its uuid data, etc. The most important change here is in write/readfile: * Virtual libraries are split from Main as the other ones. * However, their datablocks are written as regular datablocks, and not as ID_ID 'placeholders'. ===Asset Engine=== Asset Engines will be mere python addons, communicating with Blender through a generic API, quite similar to how Render Engines (like Cycles) work. There isn’t much to say code-wise here, this is mostly boring RNA mapping code, and usual type/instance structs with helpers in dedicated BKE_asset area… ===Data Changes=== Two data structs will be modified for asset needs currently: * ID: an AssetUUID pointer is added to every IDs (left to NULL for non-assets datablocks). This contains three 128bit uuids for asset itself, its variant and revision. Blender only handle those as opaque numbers, they only mean something for the relevant asset engine. They must be unique however (used e.g. by filebrowser to handle selections…). * Library: those have reference to the asset engine/repository (engine idname, engine version, and path to repository root), used to communicate later with the engine.
==Foreword== This is an updated version of the design proposal for integrating asset concept into Blender, as well as report of current work done so far and roadmap of future development. Some areas are already quite well defined (and partly implemented), others remain more fuzzy. Design always evolve while you actually implement it, anyway, issues you did not foresee need to be fixed, new ideas come while writing (and using!) code, etc. Any comment/critic/suggestion is welcome. This page will be regularly updated as work progress, unless some radical change in plans happen, in which case a new version shall rather be added. Also, a “code design” part is available at the end - this one is really technical and can totally be skipped if you’re not interested in dirty implementation details. ==Abstract== Here are the key ideas behind current proposal: * We do not define an asset management tool in Blender, only an API to communicate with asset engines. * Blender does not need to define what is an asset, how it behaves, etc. It globally sticks to our current library system (link/append). * We define three 'areas' of asset handling: browsing/loading them, 'editing' local version of already loaded assets, and editing/defining assets themselves. * Hence, only a few parts of Blender are asset-aware. Currently, the file browser, and probably the outliner too (for locally used assets management). And our loading/linking/appending code needs some changes, of course, but current general behavior/principles are kept. * Thus, we keep .blend as data storage. * Thus, we keep .blend as data storage. We may** However, howeverwe introduce the concept of 'virtual library', want to amend this later to allow mere image/fonts/videos/audio files to be directly considered as assets too (this is not mandatory though). ==Asset== What is an asset? Nothing and everything. From Blender PoV, there are no assets. Blender only knows of datablocks (objects, meshes, materials, textures, images, etc.). From user side, an asset can be anything he would like to manage 'as a whole', to store it somewhere for later reuse, to share, to import, etc. Can be materials, objects or groups defining a character, … And there are also some really advanced and specialized asset concepts, like e.g. parametric ones used for 'interior design' (to build your own kitchen from basic pre-defined 'bricks'), with complex behavior each time you add or even move those 'assets' in your scene. Blender cannot define an 'asset' type (datablock) that would handle all that kind of possibilities. It's just out of the scope. Thus, the concept of asset shall be as shallow and minimum as possible within Blender. "What" is an asset, how it behaves, etc. is defined by the asset engine. However, there is something about assets that must be defined from Blender side: a minimum set of metadata, used to identify and list them. Here are currently proposed ones, based on mere file metadata (i.e. what we already have in current filebrowser): * repository. ** repositories have an optional path. * asset. ** assets have a name and description. ** assets have tags (for filter/categorization purposes). ** assets have preview. * variants (e.g. lowpoly, highpoly, …). ** variants have a name and description. * revisions (for asset engines preserving history, and discussion from December at the BI:like BAM…). *** revisions have no name, descriptione (their uuid shall be enough usually). * preview** revisions have a comment (e.g. commit message). * type (i.e. datablock type, or 'raw' file type)** revisions have a timestamp. * size* views (e.g. jpg, png and exr versions of a same image texture). * variants (e.g. lowpoly, highpoly, …) - each variant has its own** views have a name and description. * revisions (for asset engines preserving history, like BAM…) - revisions have no name (their uuid shall be enough usually), but they store a timestamp and description (can hold e.g. a commit message)* views have a timestamp (which shall be the same as the parent revision one) and size info. AssetsRepositories, assets, variants, variantrevisions and revisionsviews all have uuids (128bits numbers). Blender identifies an asset by its asset engine and its repository/asset/variant/revision/views uuids. It should be noted that while this five-levels tree data structure does define to some extent an asset storage layout, it is absolutely **not** required to follow that layout. For the most part, Blender does not care at all about what those five levels actually are, nor what they actually mean, so asset engine are free to use them pretty much as they like, generate dummy data for levels they do not use, etc. The only strong, mandatory requirement is that the asset engine should always be able to return the path to a single, repository root pathunique data-block to link, and its asset/variant/revisiongiven a set of five uuids triple. We may also want to add some kind of 'priority' concept to Blender's datablocks. The idea behind it is that you may not want to see by default **all** your loaded datablocks in the Outliner and/or ID listings. IDs would then get a priority level, and user could chose up to which level to show/list IDs. Asset engines could use this trick e.g. to only show the main item of their asset, and 'hide' dependencies from user by default. I’m not quite convinced we really need this, however, afraid it would end making both programmer's and user's life harder, by adding yet another parameter to handle… ==Asset Engine== Conceptually, an asset engine is similar to a render engine. Blender defines a generic "asset API", and each engine implements it as it needs/can. An asset engine **does not handle loading of data itself** (as in, it won't directly give Blender a new mesh data-block, etc.). It is mostly here to gather **metadata** available (see above) and present it to the user through the API. It can also be used to expose data only available remotely, and ensure it's made available locally (as .blend files!) when user actually decides to use it. It may perform some actions on 'assets' once appended/linked, but it does not handle appending/linking itself. In other words: it is similar to some kind of specialized filesystem/database, a bridge between a given asset management system and Blender. This allows three things: * Keep a system that works already quite nicely (even though it needs some enhancements too). * Ensure (to some extent) some security fallback - that is, that .blend files using 'assets' from a given engine do not become completely broken and unusable as soon as this asset engine becomes unreachable for some reason. * Blender can integrate with (ideally) any kind of asset management workflow, from a mere local FS based one to a complex remote storage system, using files or database to store metadata, etc. This implies asset engines are **always** able to provide real valid paths to their data on request, directly usable by Blender core code. Aside from that, an asset engine can be: * A light and simple storage of metadata together with actual .blend files on a local filesystem (or in a single archive even). * An interface to some network service, that allows browsing and downloading asset from the web. * An interface to some VCS-like asset management/storage system (like BAM). * An advanced specialized tool that adds procedural scripting to imported assets (the 'kitchen design' type ;) ). We can also imagine more exotic applications, like a procedural object generator (pretty similar to 'add objects' addons, but it would benefit from a full space to show/list and pre-configure 'assets' before actually doing the generative work). E.g. a 3D fractal generator, a tree generator, … Since asset engines are mere addons, nothing prevent them to add more panels where they need them to provides extra features (like external render engines do, e.g. a material-specialized asset engine could add direct access in material buttons, etc.). ==Usage Design/Specifications== Here are some generic use-case scenarios demonstrating how current work is expected to behave. See also T46059. ===Using Assets=== That is, browsing them, loading them, updating them… that is the part work has been focused on, so far. ====Import==== * Open FileBrowser * Select desired asset engine * Browser requests asset engine to list a root directory ('/' by default). * Asset engine returns a list of entries, which are fake files and directories. * Keep navigating as in a regular file browser that way. * Filter shown entries by type, name etc. as currently, but also select a variant and revision for each entry (how to do so UI-wise is still WIP, aside from mere list buttons there are also ideas like global time 'scrolling' for revisions…) - filtering and sorting is provided by the asset engine (such that it can customize it to its needs). * (Optionally) request the asset engine to 'preload' some entries (assets).

Basics of this idea are easy to implement, but it's a bit tricky to ensure it's fully working, due to the complex interactions between IDs. In essence, current code uses BKE_library_foreach_ID_link() to update all old pointers to some datablock to new ones, and uses/extends UI ID free callbacks (like free_notifier_reference_cb, and replaces free_editor_id_reference_cb by remap_editor_id_reference_cb…). From there it’s rather trivial to add options in Outliner (and/or maybe even any ID UI block) to replace a given ID by another. ====The Sub-Datablocks Issue==== Sub-datablocks or dependency datablocks (sub-IDs), that is, the ones indirectly linked because they are used by an asset (the materials, textures, etc. of an object e.g.). Those create a problem when you want to update/reload an asset: * If the reloaded asset keeps using same sub-IDs, it's OK, nothing to do. * If the reloaded asset uses new/different sub-IDs, we want to delete current ones, and load new ones. * But, if a sub-ID is used by another asset, or is made a 'direct link' by user, then we want to both keep current one and load new one for reloaded asset. **No, we do not!** See below. * And last but not least, some sub-IDs are made 'direct links' during linking process (objects in particular, because they have to be instantiated in current scene). In that specific case, we do not want to keep old instantiated copy! To address that issue, we need a way to know //a posteriori// which ID is used by which asset-ID (even indirectly). We could do that using some BKE's library_query stuff (though I'd expect some complications with the 'objects-made-direct-links' case), or we could cache it (e.g. in a linked list of ID pointers in each ID) during read/link time. Solution is being worked on, here are current proposed points: * No guarantee of any kind is put on sub-IDs of an asset. Users may use those at their own risk, that’s not recommended at all, if not forbidden. * Maybe we should hide sub-IDs from user? That sounds rather complex to setup though... * When reloading an asset, we always (try to) totally update all its sub-IDs, even their non-asset usages. * A same sub-ID may be shared between different assets. However, there is always only one version of a sub-ID in a same .blend file (in other words, reloading one asset that’d update a sub-ID will automatically update that sub-ID for all other assets using it). * Assets break dependency chain. That is, if an asset uses another asset, then that other asset **is not considered as a sub-ID** (since for assets we have versioning etc., all above issues do not apply anymore). It may be independently directly linked/used by user, there may be several version of it in a same .blend file, etc. So asset engines (repository) should make real assets of any sub-IDs user could want to use independently (typical examples: armature object of rigged characters, materials, textures...). Non-asset sub-IDs should only be used by stuff very unlikely to be shared (e.g.: shape keys, probably anim data, etc.). ====Non-ID assets==== This is relatively restricted in current code: only affects datablocks that are thin wrappers around external files (image, font, text and sound). To implement this: * A new 'variant' of Library datablock was added, so-called 'virtual', which basically does not have any path to a Blender file, it only stores some asset repository data. * Then, linking (and asset update) are extended a bit to accept paths of files of relevant types (images, videos, etc.), and: ** Call relevant datablock loader. ** Attach newly loaded ID to virtual library, add its uuid data, etc. The most important change here is in write/readfile: * Virtual libraries are split from Main as the other ones. * However, their datablocks are written as regular datablocks, and not as ID_ID 'placeholders'. ===Asset Engine=== Asset Engines will be mere python addons, communicating with Blender through a generic API, quite similar to how Render Engines (like Cycles) work. There isn’t much to say code-wise here, this is mostly boring RNA mapping code, and usual type/instance structs with helpers in dedicated BKE_asset area… ===Data Changes=== Two data structs will be modified for asset needs currently: * ID: an AssetUUID pointer is added to every IDs (left to NULL for non-assets datablocks). This contains three 128bit uuids for asset itself, its variant and revision. Blender only handle those as opaque numbers, they only mean something for the relevant asset engine. They must be unique however (used e.g. by filebrowser to handle selections…). * Library: those have reference to the asset engine/repository (engine idname, engine version, and path to repository root), used to communicate later with the engine.

There were very good notes yesterday: the round die turns out to be 13/16, not 3/4". (Never mind the packaging, mind the calipers.) This means that the manufacturer does actually make a die stock for it - and though there's none in town, the internet is a wonderful thing. Grizzly tool has one on the way.
Image Plastics turned out to have moved, so it took some hunting to find them - but once I did, it was more than worth it. The owner recognized the microVGs on the landing light lens with an enthusiastic "Hey! I've read about these!" and from there it was good times to purchase both plexiglass and lexan and very detailed instruction on how to form each into a lens given a hairdryer, a home oven, some masonite, a little wood, and "gloves just like these but brand new, and keep 'em in a ziplock bag when you're not using them." Although I had only intended to purchase one one-time replacement, he made a very persuasive argument - why sink all the time and trouble for a relatively inexpensive piece of plastic each time when I can do two to four for almost no more cost, and avoid having to do it again for years?
Then to work, and to wrestling with the tip bow and tip rib. Here was file to fit at its finest (or most frustrating.) A couple careful die grinder cuts, an lot of filing, and many times of putting both on, clamping the tip bow down, and muttering later, the tip bow is screwed into the tip rib at the trailing edge, the tip noserib at the leading edge, and bolted into holes fresh-drilled in the front and rear spar. Today, after being absolutely sure the rib is straight and square, I'll nail it and declare it done.
It wasn't as straightforward as it sounds - this included a trip out to Lake Hood to drive around and look at the two Taylorcraft that are close cousins to this one to see exactly at what height and angle relative to the spars their tip bows were set.

Hello friends! The tour has been great so far! Looking back- I headed out from Brooklyn to LA in the wee hours of the morning on February 18th for rehearsals. Then our first show of this excursion was in Dubai on February 25th. So I've already been away from home for a month and a half! Where did the time go?!! Every day of the tour has been an adventure in and of itself. Some of the many highlights of the tour so far: A visit to Stonehenge, going to two jam sessions in London (at "Ronnie Scott's" and "Alleycat"), having a nice tour of London during the day by a fan and new friend Gary, watching "Pippen" in Amsterdam, and the Amsterdam experience in general. That was my second time there and was one of my personal favorite shows that I've ever played! Oh, also, my band mates and the audience were soooo cool to celebrate my birthday with me in Groningen. Both onstage and off. Lots more coming up on this tour. And when I get back home I'm having a CD release party for my upcoming solo album. Keep it locked right here.

Advanced parental age has been associated with adverse health effects in the offspring including childhood (0–14 years) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), as reported in our meta-analysis of published studies. We aimed to further explore the association using primary data from 16 studies participating in the Childhood Leukemia International Consortium. Data were contributed by 11 case–control (CC) studies (7919 cases and 12,942 controls recruited via interviews) and five nested case–control (NCC) studies (8801 cases and 29,690 controls identified through record linkage of population-based health registries) with variable enrollment periods (1968–2015). Five-year paternal and maternal age increments were introduced in two meta-analyses by study design using adjusted odds ratios (OR) derived from each study. Increased paternal age was associated with greater ALL risk in the offspring (ORCC 1.05, 95% CI 1.00–1.11; ORNCC 1.04, 95% CI 1.01–1.07). A similar positive association with advanced maternal age was observed only in the NCC results (ORCC 0.99, 95% CI 0.91–1.07, heterogeneity I2 = 58%, p = 0.002; ORNCC 1.05, 95% CI 1.01–1.08). The positive association between parental age and risk of ALL was most marked among children aged 1–5 years and remained unchanged following mutual adjustment for the collinear effect of the paternal and maternal age variables; analyses of the relatively small numbers of discordant paternal-maternal age pairs were not fully enlightening. Our results strengthen the evidence that advanced parental age is associated with increased childhood ALL risk; collinearity of maternal with paternal age complicates causal interpretation. Employing datasets with cytogenetic information may further elucidate involvement of each parental component and clarify underlying mechanisms.

Vegetable and Bean Chili has been one of my staples for years. It isn’t hard to prepare, the ingredients are inexpensive to buy, it keeps well in the freezer, and a large pot of it can easily feed a crowd. It is a very low-maintenance meal to prepare, too. It can hang out, simmering on the stove unattended, for a while. Which is perfect since I spend lots of time running around after a small person and can forget about silly things like, oh the food that is cooking on the stove. I also love that I can throw in any veggies I have in the fridge that weren’t used for another recipe or are just taking up space waiting to be used. The chili alone is yummy and satisfying, but pair it with some of my homemade Jalapeño Cornbread? Now you’ve got a tasty, healthy and super-filling meal.
In a large, lidded saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add red pepper flakes and cook for 15 seconds. Add the onions, some salt and stir. Cook for 3 minutes and add the garlic and jalapeño pepper.
Stir and cook 1-2 minutes. Add the carrots, a pinch of salt and stir.
Cover and let the vegetables cook for around 5 minutes.
Add the beans and some more salt and mix together well. Cook for 1-2 minutes.
Add in the tomatoes, mix thoroughly and bring the chili to a low boil. Cook for 10 minutes.
Add in spices, stir, cover and simmer over low heat for at least 20 minutes and up to 1 hour. The chili will be yummy after 20 minutes, but if you have the time, you can leave it for up to an hour so the flavors have more time to meld. Add the corn and simmer for another few minutes just to heat the corn through.
Turn off the heat, stir, taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Top with your favorite accompaniments.
Full disclosure: I used to make my “Homemade” Jalapeño Cornbread using the Jiffy brand mix for corn muffins. I’d follow the recipe on the box and just add some canned corn kernels and a chopped jalapeño pepper. And, just so you know, I always told people it was from the box. But lately, I’ve been working on my own recipe so that I know all of the ingredients—for example, I make mine with some whole wheat flour and can control the amount of sugar I put into it. So, ta-da! Here’s my recipe for cornbread that is actually homemade.
Heat oven to 375°. Mix dry ingredients in a large bowl. Mix in the jalapeño pepper and corn. Whisk the wet ingredients together in a smaller bowl. Pour all of the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients at once and mix through. Don’t over stir- there should be lumps. Pour into a greased 8×8-inch baking dish. Bake for 20-25 minutes until the edges become golden and pull away from the sides of the dish.
Cool for 5 minutes on a cooling rack and serve.
Eliana LOVES both the chili and cornbread. Here she is enjoying it while my father-in-law, Steve, feeds it to her.
Ooh! What do you have for me, Grandpa Steve?
Clap, clap for that! More, please?
You make the best food for her!

Description of the project: The project enables access to safe & sustainable sanitation to women and their families, school children and rail passengers. Women suffer disproportionately from lack of sanitation. Bioloo improves their security and dignity by providing gender- sensitive and climate-friendly affordable toilet systems. Banka Bioloo is a social enterprise founded by a woman, Manita Banka. She has implemented Bioloos in 2000 schools/households and 2000 trains; thus benefitting over 10000 adults, 50000 school children, and 60,000 daily train travellers.
Climate Impact: The bioloo disposes human waste in a 100% eco-friendly manner, saves energy and water (no flush toilet) and produces bio-gas. It treats the human waste as a resource that can be re-used, and removes the need for transport of the faeces. It prevents contamination of groundwater with pathogens, and does not require any external infrastructure. The bioloos are a great technical solution for climate mitigation and adaptation.
Gender Impact: The bioloo social enterprise is led by a woman working with grass-root communities, ensuring that women’s needs are taken into account. Women are the biggest beneficiaries of the bioloo as it is documented that lack of sanitation exposes women to violence and health risks, and reduces their access to school. Women are consulted at the starting phase and are active partners in the project implementation. Financial support is organized for poor women-headed households. Banka BioLoo works to create programs and projects towards advancement of women.
Scalability /replicability: Banka BioLoo’s model is scalable and replicable across geographical areas or terrains; suited for all income groups and social backgrounds; for urban, peri-urban and rural areas; beaches; or hilly areas – almost anywhere. The bacteria used can withstand temperatures from -5°C to 50°C. Since 2012, the social enterprise has installed bioloos in 20 Indian states and has developed partnerships with other organisations. Bioloo is currently working on ways to take the bio-digester technology to other countries, such as in Sub-Saharan Africa.

In order for the cells making up our skin to stay in the right position and the right size, and to recognise each other and stay united, there must be signals between them. This intercellular communication mainly consists of peptide bio-regulators or growth factors. These factors work by interacting with the receptors found in the cell membrane, triggering a series of chain reactions whose mission is to regulate the growth, differentiation or specialisation of cells and their metabolism. The growth factors exclusive to ANESI Lab are synthesised using plant extracts using biotechnology and encapsulated in liposomes to ensure their diffusion into all of the epidermal cell structures.

Thursday’s editorial, “Electors, reject Mr. Trump,” inflamed political passions among our readers.
At last count more than 300 readers posted comments. They’re running a 70/30 split with most readers disagreeing with the editorial. I chuckled when one reader suggested the editorial was published “to sell newspapers.” Several people said they’d cancel their subscriptions, one woman said her uncle would stop advertising and one blogger, former Times Union colleague Bill Dowd, posted a ‘“A not-so-fond farewell.” At the same time, other commenters praised the editorial and said they’d support the newspaper by starting or renewing subscriptions.
I’m encouraged to see readers so engaged with an editorial. It’s heartening when so many people took the time to read a 905-word piece of writing. 905 words. No slideshow. No filler. Just a deep read that I’m told took about three and a half hours to write.
Editorials aren’t news stories. News stories aren’t editorials. Editorials are published to promote civic discussion on important issues. They explain an issue, examine its merits or faults and provide a point of view to influence public opinion.
What’s an opinion section without …. opinions?
If your evil plan IS successful –you’re gonna wish you LIKED guns when the civil war you’re trying to initiate gets started – – you’re on the wrong side THERE, TOO !! Bye BYE !
Half this country voted for ignorance, stupidity, and the alt-right.
I know someone who spit on the ground in front of a stranger who supported … does it matter? There are mean and bitter people people all along the political spectrum.
There’s one thing that’ll help bring us together: real conversation. (Well, another thing: real news. All of that fake news on social media is getting on my nerves.) I hope we always maintain the right to disagree while also remaining cognizant that intelligent people — upstanding, solid citizens who want what’s best for our country — might hold differing opinions.

Keep Portland weird. You see this slogan on bumper stickers, storefront windows, and in graffiti artwork all over this northwestern city. But what “keeps” a city the way it is?
Key to the city’s exceptionalism is the collective attitude among Portland residents that they can shape the city’s identity and narrative, according to economist Joe Cortwright of Impresa Consulting, Ethan Seltzer of Portland State University, and urban planner Lizzy Caston. They served as our local guides during a recent study tour hosted by 8 80 Cities and the Knight Foundation. Along with nearly 30 decision makers from seven cities where Knight invests, we explored how Portland fosters an ecology of local business and the role of high quality public spaces. And weirdness we saw, including the world’s first tiny house hotel .
So are Portland residents actually at the heart of its success?
Yes, Portland enjoys a moderate climate. But it rains, a lot. And yes, Portland has an urban growth boundary that has helped contain development and increase the kind of density that supports walkable, bikeable, and transit-friendly cities.
But the real story behind how the city nurtured such a vibrant local business hub is about more than policy – it’s about people. Every city has people who care enough to improve their communities. The cast of entrepreneurs, restaurateurs, developers, and artists we met throughout the tour convinced us that all cities can replicate Portland’s success if local residents mobilize to identify a collective vision and develop homegrown strategies to support local business.
1. Think small: Portland is a mid-sized city with a small-city vibe. It has small blocks, small buildings, small neighbourhoods, and small hotels (see above). But the real lesson here is that creating a livable city is a gradual process that happens block by block. Rather than rallying behind mega-projects or silver-bullet solutions, the civic leaders behind Portland’s success began by developing a single business or community project. Residents in other areas were inspired, and gradually expanded thriving models for community growth into their own neighbourhoods.
2. Public space is good for business: Philip Stanton, the owner of Mississippi Pizza, said it best. When opening his pizza shop on a once-downtrodden Mississippi Avenue, Philip quickly came to the realization that “the street is the commodity.” Philip understands that businesses have a direct role to play in creating a vibrant and memorable street experience – and that’s what keeps people coming back. The more people you attract to the street through activated window displays, creative signage, and planters, the more customers you get.
3. It’s cool to care: Whether you grew up in Portland or moved there last month, there’s a prevailing sense of community ownership and pride among the local business community. This attitude of caring leads to an authentic local identity, which is built directly by the people who live and work there.
We’ll be adding a new chapter to the Doable City Reader based on the study tour soon.

The WPDA hosted Britta Johnston, Owner and Head Trainer of Britta Johnston International Sport Horses, LLC , at Silver Crest Equestrian Center. Riders of all ages and training levels greatly benefited from her expertise!
Our Junior/Young Rider program hosted their first clinic at Silver Crest Equestrian Center with Nicole DelGiorno, a USDF Gold Medalist, Young Rider graduate, 4-time NAJYRC medalist, and board member of The Dressage Foundation.
This 4+ hour seminar included presentations by Dr. Jim Zeliff of Allegheny Equine, the North Strabane Large Animal Emergency Response Team, and the PA State Police. Topics included lameness care using today's newest technology; working with emergency responders through an incident; trail safety; barn fire safety; pasture safety; a comprehensive list of what state troopers look for during a traffic stop with horses; and a tour of a large animal rescue trailer and equipment.
Remember the how much fun horse camp was as a kid? We bring back those memories with our annual 21+ Dressage Clinic! This annual favorite is 3 days of mounted and unmounted lessons with top dressage professionals. Participants range from intro/training level to those working on firming up the upper level movements. Western dressage riders are welcome as well!
Janice Dulak is a former professional dancer, a Romana’s Pilates Master Instructor Trainer and USDF Bronze medalist. Her path from dancer to dressage rider combined with her clear and concise distillation of the Pilates Method creates Pilates for Dressage®, the original rider training program. The clinic began with a Friday dinner and PowerPoint lecture on Pilates for Dressage® presented by Janice on Friday evening. On Saturday morning, riders engage in a two-hour Pilates for Dressage® Mat Class that teaches the riders how to find the correct core and intrinsic muscles that allow for relaxation in the global muscles. After lunch, riders mount up and learn how to put the studio work into the saddle.
Sunday, riders reinforce what they’ve learned in another two-hour mat class. The weekend finishes with mounted lessons, as riders are newly secure in their newfound ways to use their body to create harmony with their horse.

I just read a few other reviews of this book and it seems that a lot of people were looking for some sort of ‘Happy Ever After’. If that’s what you’re after from a book, then this one isn’t for you. The story and the characters are firmly anchored in the real world.
I had trouble getting into the book at the beginning, so much so that I wasn’t sure that I’d be able to finish it, but once I got past a certain point I couldn’t put it down. I saw an interview with J.K. Rowling before I started reading where she said that every character in the book was someone she’d known. I feel fortunate that I only know some of them, but it was recognising these characters that got me interested in the book.
The plot of the story is almost incidental. It is the stories of the individual characters and their interactions that drive the book.
The book delves into the thinking of the main characters and presents this in all its sickeningly gory detail with absolutely no backing off or softening the edges. So, we find out exactly what the selfish, self-centred residents of the fictional village of Pagford think about themselves and each other. At times, I found this almost too brutal and confronting to read. I think that an author who was just starting out and hoping for success would be much more sympathetic to readers’ sensibilities. In some ways it’s very refreshing to see an author with the power to completely let loose.
I’m still not sure exactly how I feel about this book. Having absolutely loved Harry Potter, that’s certainly not an emotion I could apply to a book like this one. I think there will be plenty of people out there who strongly dislike this book.
I won’t be recommending this book to my teenage children as they don’t have anything in common with the teens in this story (I hope).
I can’t wait to see what J.K. Rowling brings us next! Yes, I will be rushing out to buy the next one (Hoping that J.K. Rowling has overshot the mark in her transition from fantasy to reality).
Filed under Fiction, Rowling, J.K.

From now on, the Infrastructure Fund will be automatically extended every year. This means that funding for roads, railways, regional transport, waterways, and the management and maintenance of Dutch infrastructure is safeguarded for years to come. The same applies to the Delta Fund through which investments in flood risk management and water management are funded.
On behalf of the cabinet, Minister Schultz van Haegen (Infrastructure and the Environment) announced this today on Prinsjesdag (the state opening of Parliament) in a letter to the House of Representatives. The agreements follow on from the cabinet decision made this spring to extend the Infrastructure Fund in the 2017 budget by two years (from 2028 to 2030).
In 2017, Ministers Schultz and Dijksma will set aside 5.9 billion euros for new infrastructure, and the management and maintenance of roads, railways and waterways. In addition, 905 million euros will be made available in 2017 through the Delta Fund.
In recent years, investment in road widening has contributed to reducing congestion on the roads. Now that the economy is picking up again, the number of road journeys is increasing and congestion is thus also rising. To cope with this growth, the road network will be further expanded. In 2016, the Delft-Schiedam section of the A4 motorway was completed, a new connection improving traffic flows in the Rotterdam region.
In this cabinet term, 717 km of additional lanes will be made available. Moreover, in 2017 Minister Schultz will be completing the procedures for major, completely new roads which will relieve the pressure on existing roads. This work includes a new crossing to the port of Rotterdam and the Extended A15 motorway in Gelderland. The procedure for the Utrecht Ring Road will also be completed.
In the year ahead too, efforts will be made to further improve public transport. Shorter travel times where possible and comfort for passengers are the priorities. Together with all public transport parties, the alignment of trains, buses, trams and metros will be improved even further. The existing public transport network will be further expanded and utilized more efficiently. For example, from December 2017, trains will run on the Amsterdam-Eindhoven line without a timetable. An intercity train will be running every ten minutes in each direction. The Schiphol interchange will also be tackled. The cabinet has set aside 250 million euros for this purpose under the Schiphol Action Programme.
Together with other government authorities and private parties, in 2017 the Ministry will be fully committed to smart mobility and the development of intelligent traffic systems enabling vehicles to communicate with, for instance, traffic lights and traffic control centres in order to improve traffic flows. Legislation will be further amended to allow experiments with self-driving vehicles on public roads without the need for a driver to be present in the vehicles. The development of next-generation traffic information services is well underway. Such services involve real-time travel information about, for instance, an accident or localised icy conditions, which drivers receive via their own navigation system. Drivers can thus anticipate conditions they cannot see but which they will encounter along their route.
A circular economy contributes to the clearly defined goals of the historic climate agreement signed last year in Paris. The agreement states that global warming must at least remain well under two degrees, with the aim of limiting it to one and a half degrees. In October 2016, at the initiative of Environment Minister Dijksma, a National Climate Summit will be held under the motto “Bring Paris Home”. The Netherlands is one of the initiators of international efforts to improve emissions trading schemes, intended to ensure that the emission of greenhouse taxes is more severely taxed. The Netherlands is also taking the initiative of setting down international agreements on the reduction of emissions in the aviation sector by introducing the carbon pricing principle. In this regard, Minister Dijksma is attending a meeting of the aviation sector next week in Montreal.
The cabinet recently presented plans to have the Dutch economy running completely on reusable raw materials by 2050. The reusability of raw materials must be ensured by taking future recycling into account when designing a product. End-of-life products must also be used as a source of new raw materials. In December this year, a raw materials agreement will be signed which sets down these agreements. In 2017, action plans will follow with the aim of reducing the use of raw materials by fifty percent by 2030, so that ultimately in 2050, a one hundred percent circular economy will have been realised. A sum of 27 million euros is being made available for the recycle economy.
Over the past decades, many environmental problems have been tackled, risks have been demonstrably reduced, and the living environment has been improved. Chemical substances that are hazardous for humans and the environment have no place in a safe and healthy living environment. For this reason, the Ministry will be signing Safety Deals with the chemical industry next year. Agreements will be made on, for example, transporting fewer chemical substances by road, and on stricter safety requirements for businesses. To accelerate the removal of Dutch asbestos roofs, in 2017 a minimum of 10 million euros will once more be made available for companies and private individuals. The almost 15 million euros made available in 2016 contributed to the replacement of some 8 million square metres of asbestos roofs.
The Senate adopted the Environmental Planning Bill in March 2016. In 2017 and 2018, the final sections will be completed of the large-scale legislative operation that eliminated contradictory, vague and superfluous regulations pertaining to the physical living environment. The Environmental Planning Bill replaces 26 existing Acts, and 60 general administrative regulations will be reduced to 4. The Bill is intended to improve the quality of the living environment, increase freedom of choice for entrepreneurs, shorten procedures, and reduce the associated research burden. A single Act, a single permit.
The increased risk of pluvial flooding and periods of extreme heat or drought due to climate change can have serious consequences, also for the economy. All the authorities involved are therefore going to draw up a joint Delta Plan for the water-resilient and climate-proof spatial planning of the Netherlands. This is set down in the Delta Programme 2017 which was presented today. The Delta Programme now contains a Delta Plan on Flood Risk Management and a Delta Plan on Freshwater Supply. From next year, it will also include a Delta Plan on Spatial Adaptation. Regarding flood risk management, the process of embedding the new standards in law is well underway. The aim is to have the bill adopted as of 1 January 2017.

Federal prosecutors continue to make a case against 6ix9ine. On Saturday (Dec. 8), it was revealed that they have video that ties the Brooklyn rapper to armed robberies and shootings that took place in New York City.
In video obtained by TMZ, the rapper was recorded at the scene of what prosecutors say is a robbery in broad daylight, committed by the Dummy Boy rhymer's former manager Kifano "Shotti" Jordan. Tekashi is seen in the footage looking on from a distance as a man said to be his former right-hand man runs down on someone in the middle of the street. Jordan later returns to their vehicle and they drive off.
There's more. According to the documents, the feds have over a dozen photos of 6ix and his crew committing robberies and shootings over the past several months. Most of the evidence was obtained from the phones of the rapper and his crew. Police later matched up the incidents with surveillance footage to bolster the case, including a robbery in April that took place in Brooklyn and a shooting in June.
A screenshot of one robbery was allegedly given to a third party by the rapper to post on social media. The photo evidence also includes shots of a backpack that were stolen. According to the report, these photos are part of the reasoning given for denying the rapper's bail.
6ix9ine's attorney Lance Lazzaro continues to claim his client's innocence. "Daniel Hernandez is innocent and was never part of a criminal enterprise. He should never have been indicted," he said.
As previously reported, the rapper is facing 32 year to life, if convicted, after being arrested along with members of his crew last month on federal racketeering and gun charges. Prosecutors have called the group a violent gang who have menaced the streets of NYC with violence and drugs. 6ix9ine has pleaded not guilty to the charges and his trial date has been set for Sept. 4, 2019.
Peep the video in question below.

Downed trees and log jams are a common occurrence on Cedar Creek. Depending on water levels, travelers may need to portage around these obstacles. The trail is cleared as staffing and weather conditions allow. If you come across one an obstacle, please pass it on to a park ranger so that the most up to date information can be passed on to other visitors.
Be aware of other potential hazards associated with downed trees. Poison ivy vines, spiders, wasps and other stinging insects, and snakes are common here in the park, especially during the summer months. Downed trees are a good place to find these and other hazards. Please use caution when navigating around or under a downed tree.

A favorite Thai restaurant serves this wonderful pork satay, so I gave it a whirl at home - delicious!
Cut pork tenderloin in half lengthwise. Place plastic wrap over tenderloin halves; pound to 1/4-inch thickness using a meat mallet or small, heavy skillet. Cut each tenderloin half diagonally across the grain into 1-inch strips. Place strips in a large zip-top plastic bag.
Combine soy sauce and next 5 ingredients in a small bowl; stir with a whisk until well blended. Pour over tenderloin strips in bag, tossing to coat, and seal bag. Marinate in refrigerator at least 1 hour, turning bag occasionally.
While tenderloin marinates, soak skewers in water 30 minutes.
Remove tenderloin strips from bag; discard marinade. Thread 1 strip onto each skewer. Place skewers on a broiler rack coated with cooking spray; broil 3 minutes on each side or until done. Serve with Peanut Dipping Sauce.

A clinical trial conducted by the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (MA, USA) has reported that prostate cancer patients who took cholesterol-lowering statins alongside the start of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), experienced a longer controlled-disease period compared with prostate cancer patients who did not take statins. The trial results, published recently in JAMA Oncology, suggest that statins could delay prostate cancer growth in patients receiving ADT.
A total of 926 patients were involved in the study, 70% of whom experienced disease progression over a 6-year period. Overall, the group of patients taking statins alongside ADT experienced a median of 27.5 months before the prostate cancer began to deteriorate. In comparison, prostate cancer patients who did not take statins reported a median of 17.4 months.
The current frontline therapy for hormone-sensitive prostate cancer patients, ADT, works by reducing the amount of androgen and testosterone hormones in the body. This trial was the result of prior laboratory studies that examined the SLCO2B1 protein, which aids the entry of drugs and hormones including DHEAS, a precursor of testosterone, as well as statin drugs into cells.
In laboratory-grown prostate cancer cell lines, statin drugs were discovered to exhibit interference with DHEAS uptake by controlling the availability of SLCO2B1 within a prostate tumor. Thus, statins could prevent DHEAS from entering cancer cells.
The results of the trial suggest that this approach with statins could slow cancer progression and improve patient outcomes in hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. However, further studies are required to validate the findings in larger patient cohorts.

As I mentioned in this post, I'm finding myself drawn to the bohemian look lately with the warm sun and spring blooms everywhere around me. Without compromising my personal style, today I mixed the boho with the edge. What is a mainly edgy outfit was changed up a bit with my aztec print cardigan that I got from a local surf shop my freshman year. I love spicing up something that I haven't worn forever in a new way!
The track for today's outfit is "She Doesn't Get It" by my all-time favorite band, The Format. They have provided my favorite tunes ever since I was introduced to them in middle school because they were local. Now broken up, but you can still listen to front-man Nate Ruess as the lead singer of Fun. Listen along below while you view!
I never get over how pretty my town is. I took these photos is a standard office parking lot a block over from my house, and yet this is the view next to it. You can see hills like this in any direction you look, and it never gets old!

(CNN) — September is an excellent month to catch the travel bug.
The weather is beginning to moderate from the extremes of summer in the Northern Hemisphere and winter in the Southern. You may find some hotels starting to lower prices from the high season. And crowds are starting to thin out. If you can arrange the time off, this month has much to offer the traveler.
Wooden fishing boats line the beach of Cefalu, Sicily.
This rugged, mountainous and autonomous island below the Italian Peninsula is an excellent late-summer, early autumn choice. The later in September you go, the more likely you'll find cooler weather, fewer crowds and lower prices.
Don't come here expecting a carbon copy of Italy on an island. Sicilians are a distinct people with a strong regional identity. So even an old hand at travel to Italy might find some interesting cultural differences.
As far as tourist destinations, we'll start with the one that looms over everything: Mount Etna.
It's one of the world's most active volcanoes, a UNESCO World Heritage site and as long as you keep abreast of any news of volcanic activity, a fascinating but safe place to explore.
-- Calamosche and Vendicari Nature Reserve: On Sicily's southeast coast, you can enjoy snorkeling, bird watching and hiking.
-- Mondello: If you're staying in Palermo, Sicily's biggest city, and don't want to venture too far away, this long, white-sand beach could be for you (and a good many other tourists).
-- Isola Bella: Near Taormina on the northeast coast, this pebble-laced beach is considered by many to be one of Sicily's prettiest ones.
Admirers of ancient ruins will hit the jackpot with the so-called Valley of the Temples on the southern coast. Agrigento became one of the premiere cities of the Mediterranean after it was founded as a Greek colony in 6 B.C. you won't soon forget the remains of the Doric temples at the site.
Evening view of Pittsburgh from the top of the Duquesne Incline in Mount Washington, Pittsburgh.
Some people may ask: Why would you visit Pittsburgh? Those in the know may ask: Why haven't you visited Pittsburgh yet?
September is good time to find out why Pennsylvania's second-largest city makes for such a great destination.
The Plaza Independencia is in the center of the city of Montevideo, Uruguay.
September marks the end of winter and the arrival of spring for Uruguay, situated well below the equator in the Southern Hemisphere between its much bigger neighbors Brazil and Argentina.
This is not a time for beach play -- it's still too cold to enjoy a swim in the Atlantic. But it should be warm enough to enjoy Uruguay's other outdoor activities and urban pleasures before high season kicks in.
If you've gotten too much of a good thing, you may need to burn some calories. You can do that dancing, and you don't have to cross the Rio de la Plata to get your tango on. Milongas (or tango salons) in Montevideo have a reputation for a welcoming attitude to visitors and newbies. Be ready to stay up late -- the action might not start until midnight.
-- Historic Quarter of the City of Colonia del Sacramento: This city was founded by the Portuguese in 1680 and faces Buenos Aires across the Plata River. The city is notable for its fusion of Portuguese and Spanish influences. If you love well-preserved historical places with winding cobbled streets, put this UNESCO World Heritage site on your list.
-- Carmelo: About 240 kilometers (150 miles) from Montevideo and on the banks of the Plata is charming Carmelo. Some call it "the Tuscany of Uruguay." It's notable for its sandy beaches along the river and surrounding wineries.
-- Tacuarembó: If you're curious about the interior, this is a good place to check out. Sometimes known as "the heart of the country," Tacuarembó has been a center for artists and culture. Set in rolling hills and meadows, it can be a good point from which to explore the gaucho region.
Main Market Square in Krakow looks lovely illuminated in the night.
September can be a sweet spot for visiting Poland's cultural capital. You can expect average highs in the mid-60s and lows in upper 40s. This time of year tends to be drier than the peak of summer, but remember Poland's continental weather is widely variable. At least you're well ahead of those harsh Polish winters.
You'll also be missing the worst of those infamous summer tourist crowds in Europe that seem to swarm every good attraction.
Krakow is a treasure trove for fans of history or architecture. A good place to get a dose of both is Main Market Square. It claims the title of largest medieval square in Europe.
Famed author Armistead Maupin walks down memory lane, strolling through the San Francisco neighborhood that inspired his globally successful novels and TV series, "Tales of the City".
While the bulk of the United States starts to cool down in September, San Francisco is actually heating up a little from its notoriously chilly summer. On average, September is the warmest month (followed by October).

Description: The Pams range of products is New Zealand's largest food retailers with low prices aimed at the general public.
Our brief was to recreate pams into a premium more quality and high priced range for a target audience with more disposable income. We were given specific information that was required to be on the packaging, but had creative freedom for the design.
I took a strong typographic approach in a vintage / modern way using a range of vintage fonts and colour tones. I also used typical vintage banners and graphic elements to be coherent with this style. The text varies in colour and size to create hierarchy and a sense of direction to read the words as an appetizing sentence.

Handmade beaded earrings feature beautiful tiger eye gemstone, black jet Swarovski Crystals, gold Bali spacers and 14kt gold-fill ear wires. The gold metals in this design lend to the chatoyant effect of the contrasting golden and brown bands in the tiger eye gemstone. Length is 3/4" from the bottom of the ear wire.
Handmade beaded bracelet features beautiful tiger eye gemstones, black jet Swarovski Crystals, sterling silver Bali, gold filigree beads and rope-style toggle clasp. Just as in the gemstone earrings above, the gold metals lend to the chatoyant effect of the contrasting golden and brown bands in the tiger eye gemstone. Gemstone Bracelet measures 8-1/4".
The remainder of the items are: Design by George Gross (Scoop Neck Jacket); Clinique (High Definition Mascara); Nine West (Cedargrove Black boot); H&M (Brown pants); Marc Jacobs (Dash leather bag); Love-Worn.com (Christian Dior Tortoiseshell Sunglasses); Essie (Wicked -nail polish); Misterspex.de (Sean John Brille Tortoiseshell Eyewear).

PoS캐슬 2019년 바야흐로 Proof of Stake(PoS)의 시대가 오고있다.
모든걸 거머쥔 블록체인들이 한자리에 모여 몇년째 PoS를 적용하려 치열하게 코딩과 토론을 하고 있는 현 시점을 짚어보고 그들의 처한 현 상황과, 꿈꾸는 미래에 대해 허심탄회하게 이야기 해본다.
✔️PoS(Proof of Stake)는 그들에게 어떤 반항인가?
일단 각 블록체인들이 어떤 블록체인인지 들어보자.
도대체 무엇을 위해 만들어진 블록체인인가. 그리고 그들이 PoS를 택한 이유에 대한 속사정을 들어보자.
✔️하늘아래 같은 립스틱 색은 없듯, PoS도 조금씩 다르다?
참여자들의 존재만으로도 감사한 이 시점에서….
각 블록체인에서 꿈꾸는 미래는 무엇인지 이야기 해본다.
** 이번 밋업은 한국어로 진행됩니다.
It is 2019 and the age of Proof of Stake(PoS) is coming.That’s why we’ve prepared: PoS Castle!
We have gathered some projects working on PoS blockchains that have garnered a lot of interest from the blockchain community.
At this point when all these projects are hard at work coding and debating, we wanted to discuss the current state of affairs and the future that these blockchain projects are envisioning.
✔️Why are they using PoS?
The speakers will discuss what each of the blockchains are built for and why these blockchains choose to use PoS.
✔️Not all PoS systems are alike. What is so different for each PoS?
The speakers will talk about the PoS used in the blockchains they’re working closely with and the unique aspects of it.
They will also touch on who is involved in their PoS systems and the incentives to keep these participants involved.
They will finally discuss what this all means for the developers and users on these blockchains and the future they envision.
We invite all blockchain-ers to PoS Castle to experience this one-of-a-kind meetup.
**Please note that this meetup will be in Korean.

THREE cars were involved in an accident on the A34 at East Ilsley - a notorious accident blackspot - this morning (Thurs).
One fire engine from Whitley Wood fire station was called at 7.29am to the A34 northbound at East Ilsley, to an incident involving three cars, the Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service (RBFRS) has confirmed.
South Central Ambulance Service (SCAS) sent an ambulance at 7.17am.
One woman sustained a minor head injury and was treated by paramedics at the scene.
Traffic tailbacks of five miles were reported during the incident.
Campaigners and poiticians,including Newbury MP Richard Benyon, have recently made fresh calls for safety improvements on the A34.
Safety on the dual carriageway has been under the spotlight following a number of fatal collisions, including an eight-vehicle pile up at East Ilsley, which claimed the lives of a mother and three children in August.
Just two weeks later, three-year-old Isla Wiggin and her unborn baby brother died in a crash at Hinksey Hill. in Oxfordshire.
It's a dual carriageway carrying motorway amounts of traffic with ever-increasing numbers of HGVs. Only two lanes, no hard shoulder and inadequate slip roads witb poor visibility. Bad driving is always a factor, but should not be use as a reason to do nothing. The road is no longer fit for its purpose.
Good point, well made... It is time for the A34 to be upgraded.

A historical paranormal romance with sweeping consequences, “Fated” is sure to thrill.
Set in ancient Rome, you will find yourself immersed in the culture, drawn to the intrigue and yearning for the romance.
Carolyn McCray transports readers back to Rome, during the rule of Julius Caesar and just before the Ides of March, in her novel, Fated. If you ever wondered why Brutus, Caesar's closest friend, was the one to deliver the killing blow, McCray has created an intricate tale that tells why, coupled with a love story that lasts throughout eternity.
Syra and Brutus are the main characters of the book, alternating perspectives. Syra is a warrior, who when discovered to be a woman, is sold into slavery. She's strong, brave, courageous, motivating, and has the mind of a military official. She's never felt love before and for is drawn to Rome by her dreams. Readers will enjoy her tom-boy personality, while respecting her for what she can do on the battlefield. She's a stubborn character who is full of pride and hope for the future.
Brutus is a member of Rome's senate during a time in which the conspiracy to overthrow Caesar is born. Though, he believes that he's the illegitimate son of Caesar, readers know from history that he is the one to kill Julius. His character in the novel is intelligent, loyal, proud, trustworthy, friendly, and he is always trying to help anyone he can. Readers will love his guardian nature and be captivated by his story.
The plot starts unfolding very quickly as readers realize that the Ides of March are coming soon and Rome's ruler won't survive. After Brutus and Syra meet (as owner and slave) they become enamored with each other. As their love grows, so does the plot to kill Caesar. Will they both survive the fall of the Roman ruler, or will Brutus be on the receiving end of a knife as well? Fated is fantasy, history, romance, and thrilling all at once. Wonderful book!

Briton Ben Moreau claimed the men's 18.45km title in 1hr 2min 49sec, while Japanese Maki Inami won the women's race in 1:11:01.
The Briton and the Japanese, both of whom were taking part in the ST Run for the first time, each received a five-day, four-night all-expenses paid trip to race in next year's Gold Coast Marathon as part of their prize.
The packages to that International Association of Athletics Federations Gold Label marathon, worth about $2,000 each, are courtesy of a tie-up between The Straits Times and Tourism Queensland.
Moreau, who claimed the men's 18.45km title (1hr 2min 49sec), and Inami, the women's winner in 1:11:01, both also took home a Panasonic 55-inch Ultra-HD 4K Pro HDR TV set worth $2,599 each.
Panasonic has been the ST Run's presenting sponsor since the inaugural edition in 2013.
The Gold Coast Marathon is "where I set my half-marathon personal best of 1:03:59 in 2013 and I've never run the full marathon there, so it would be great to go back", said two-time Commonwealth Games marathon entrant Moreau, 36, who yesterday finished nearly five minutes ahead of runner-up Foo Gen Lin (1:07:16).
The men's and women's 10km events were won by Nepalese Nimesh Gurung (33:00) and Belgian Vanja Cnops (38:15) respectively. All four winners are based in Singapore. Gurung and Cnops each won a Panasonic 49-inch Ultra-HD 4K Pro HDR TV set worth $1,699.
Gurung was the runner-up in the 18.45km category last year but elected for the shorter distance this year as he felt he was not quite in tip-top shape after a recent holiday.
"It's always very nice running in Singapore and the ST Run is one of my favourites," said the 30-year-old, who is taking part in his fifth ST Run.
"I am very happy and encouraged to have won today although I am not that satisfied with my time.
"I will definitely be back next year and in fact I hope to take part in 10 ST Runs at least!"
This year's ST Run attracted over 13,000 participants.

A welcome to Chih-Sheng Ni who is joining the Institute as a Junior Visiting Research Fellow in the Institute from March to September this year, supported by the National Science Council in Taiwan. Chih-Sheng is a doctoral student in the English Department of Tamkang University, and is working on a research project entitled “Spinning the Images of London: Space, History and Literature in the Work of Iain Sinclair,” which explores psychogeographic representations of London. Using Henri Lefebvre’s “trialectic conception”, the research focuses on the triadic dialectical relationship between material social space, language, and the creative, poetic act.
Kasa Gallery, Istanbul, March 21 to April 20, 2013.
The exhibition initiates a series of new artworks and installations designed to blur the boundaries between medicine, data, documentation, economics and art. Conceived as a complex autoportrait of the body undergoing advanced treatment for cancer, the exhibition serves as the primary site where the possibilities, visibilities and public manifestations of the body at its most vulnerable are tested to their limits. Body of Evidence forms part of a larger, multi-faceted project (Blood and Bones) in which the artist faces a complex set of questions about the meaning of life and death. These are fundamental questions that art has wrestled with for centuries. The challenge presented in the case of Tom Corby’s exhibition is how to make sense of the relationship between physicality and data; materiality and immateriality; medical intervention and metastasis (where, in the broadest material and clinical sense of the word, the death spiral of the afflicted body is mirrored by the wider economic and environmental ecologies within which it is situated).
Employing an idiosyncratic set of approaches to the process of data visualization, the installation is composed of a series of objects related to the artist’s treatment that together act as a physical visualization of the data his illness is producing during his treatment. These data touch upon and use personal objects such as the hats he wears on a daily basis and which he documents via his blog. Together, these elements reveal a meticulous and methodically structured approach that challenges viewers to detach themselves from all emotional aspects. As the body becomes subjected to the procedures and processes of ordering, selecting, sectioning and framing, it transforms into a grand taxonomic work. In this sense, the exhibition exhibits a certain character typical of the British mindset; particularly, calling upon the indexing fetish attributable to the great scientific explorers of the Victorian era.
In this case, however, the exploration that Tom Corby is embarking upon is not across an uncharted ocean, unexplored land mass or previously unseen/inaccessible dimension of physical reality. The exhibition Body in Evidence charts the artist’s expedition inside his own body and across his own soul, exploring the existential data of a body/object subjected to medical intervention; the body as a system that while in the process of shutting down, continues to produce data. In equal parts heroic and obsessive, this project touches on attitudes to death and disease in a wider sense, namely a desire to find ways, processes and forms to transcend the act of termination and come to an accord with our feelings about it.
Tom Corby is the Director of CREAM’s Doctoral Programme, deputy Director of CREAM and coordinates the experimental media cluster research at Westminster. His interdisciplinary artworks (in collaboration with Gavin Baily and Jonathan Mackenzie) have been internationally exhibited and have won numerous awards including: nomination for the FILE Festival Digital Language award 2010; the jury nominated award at the 10th Japan Media Arts Festival in 2007; honorary mentions at the Prix Ars Electronica 2006 and 2000; honorary mention: “The Post-Cagian Interactive”, “Art on the Net” The Machida City Museum of Arts, Tokyo and the main festival prize Cynet Art 1999. In 2000 he was nominated for the “International Media Art Award 2000″, at Zentrum für Kunst und Medientechnologie (ZKM) in Karlsruhe, Germany and was the artist in residence at the ICA London 1998.

Beautiful Ballerinas Every Girl Will Love!
This adorable project is perfect for all the little aspiring ballerinas! Its simple, easy and fun to make. The girls will have hours of fun playing with their new little dancing friends.
To begin you will need to gather your supplies. This project requires a pair of scissors, pink pipe cleaners (you can choose whatever colour you like!), 1/4 metre of spangle tulle, 3-4 wooden pegs, star sequins or stickers, a glue stick, washi tape and some Marvy Pens.
Start by cutting out a small rectangle of tulle, roughly 14cm x 7cm. Then fold your rectangle in half to make a square. Wrap this square around the bottom of your peg scrunching at the top.
Secure the tulle with some washi tape. You will need a little helper for this step!
Next cut off a 10cm piece of pipe cleaner. Wrap around the middle of the peg just above the tulle. Twist at the back and straighten the pipe cleaner so they look like arms for your ballerina.
Glue a sequin star onto the front of your ballerina and draw on a face!
Lastly your ballerina will need a tiara! For this cut a small 2cm piece of pipe cleaner and wrap into a circle. Glue the top of the peg and secure the pipe cleaner tiara.
Now you have your own cute little ballerina dancers! Experiment with different colours and materials to make your own unique ballerina!

As she prepares to welcome baby number three with her husband Alec, Hilaria Baldwin has been sharing an inside look at her pregnancy.
Today the mum-of-two took to Instagram and posted a snap of baby bump in all its glory.
"People often ask me about stretch marks and what I do to prevent them.
"Many people tell me that they are genetic. So far I have not gotten them with any of my babies...we will see what happens with this one by the end!"
However, the expectant mum did say that maybe it was down to her skincare regime and shared some tips with her 167,000 followers.
"I do make sure to moisturise A LOT! I don't know if this helps prevent them, but I feel like it's a good thing to do anyway."
"Plus, I enjoy a little TLC after the shower. I'm big into coconut oils and coco butters."
But not one to leave without making a powerful statement, Hilaria finished with a message that we can definitely get behind.
"Whatever the result is on our bodies in pregnancy, we must remember: there is no one beauty and the incredible process of making a baby is perhaps one of he greatest beauties I've ever witnessed."
"Little marks on the skin? Simply reminders of the power of the female body. Embrace all that comes with these babies!"

Do you think you could get attached to a domestic robot, and feel affection for it?
And before you immediately answer NO, envisage that they will look like humans, as in the TV show Humans.
After having watched Humans I think it was called - YES!
Not in my lifetime but Im sure it will happen and yes, living alone I could probably get attached to such a person as it is the same as talking to someone online who you have not met!
When I was a child, my dog sat at the table after my sister left home, in her place. He was so good and he never touched anything. Obviously my parents weren't bothered, looking back. LOL. I speak to my two all the time and they do understand a lot. Julie used to say the same about hers.
i speak to mine but they havent a clue!
That is one scary show!
Probably. I talk to my vacuum cleaner, washing machine, car, Kindle etc. If it said "Hello, would you like a cup of tea?" whenever I got home, I would be looking at it like a favourite child. Hahahaha. Seriously: yes, I probably would.
oh dear, then what sort of conversations do you have with your dogs? do you sit them at the table with you for dinner too?
Absolutely. I don't see why not. It is something you would see everyday, and doubtless, it would come to know your needs and wants, as well as your routine, over time. I'm sure it would learn to have coffee ready for you when you wake up, and make it just the way you like it. It may greet you and say 'Good Morning ' every day, just like a human would. Robots have the potential to be better friends or companions than humans. Having one one would be great for anyone living alone, providing peace of mind and companionship for the older person, or single people living alone.
ah, what a shame not in my life time then!
I just finished watching Will Smith talking to one! I think it would of course be possible.A few things have to come into play.
Say I was very much alone, no family and just really had no one in my everyday life.
I get attached to people in commercials, it is very slight but it happens.
If asked would they be any use in the future ?
yes, there are a great deal of lonely older people. I see nothing wrong with it, the cost may be a problem but it is the same as little girls loving their dolls when young. Talking to them and hugging them, so a robot talking back would be nice for those who have no one.
I'm surprised it has taken this long, and so much money? To bring them out now.
Bahahahahaha!! That's the link I gave Lluxi and Finy. I thought it was soooo funny.
I dont think so... however if they did look "exactly" like humans it would be hard to not i guess.
Aside- I have named my vacuum robot.. Rosie (think Jetsons) and she does a lovely job.
Rosie was all I could think of when this question came up. Hahahahahahahaha!
As people, we tend to get attached to things regardless if they look like humans or not! LOL. I could name a few people who are insanely attached to their things. Having said that, I couldn't own a domestic robot - I just couldn't. If I did...I suppose it would be possible to get attached.
Have you noticed that what used to be summer fruits seem to be available all year round now?

THE City of Cockburn has been endorsed as a ‘Gold Waterwise Council’ for its part in saving 12 billion litres of water for the state in 2015-16.
Cockburn was one of 19 councils recognised by the Water Corporation at a breakfast last month, which revealed local governments and businesses had helped save the equivalent of 5300 Olympic-sized swimming pools-worth of the precious resource.
Water Minister Dave Kelly said it was a massive effort.
“The significant water saving milestones being achieved by WA councils is encouraging and reinforces that everyone in the community has a responsibility to save precious water in our drying climate,” he said.
Cockburn environmental education officer Claire Dunn said the City had a number of initiatives in place to promote responsible water use.
Among those is a water efficiency action plan, a native plant subsidy scheme, the installation and retrofitting of water hardware within City facilities and a home and business eco audit program.
“The City is pleased with the recognition and (is) enthusiastic to continue with our water saving initiatives,” she said.
Tobias Busch and his wife Sajni moved into their Hamilton Hill home nine years ago, viewing the grassed lawn as a blank canvas to create something more sustainable.
The couple have taken advantage of the City’s native plant subsidy scheme and grant to make their garden what it is today.
“We have found a good balance of plants that work but also discovered some that don’t do well in our soil,” Mr Busch said.
“The subsidy has allowed us to get a selection of great quality and very reasonably priced local natives.
Mr Busch said the aim was “to restrict the use of water as much as possible”.

“I’ve just finished my 12-week transformation and I feel like a different person. It’s amazing. I’m still getting used to my new body.
“Every morning I wake up and look in the mirror and think ‘oh! Is that me?’ I couldn’t imagine this transformation would go so well.
“Seven years ago I was a different person, he says. “You can see it from the photo. Some people now can’t recognise me.
“They say ‘who is that guy? Is that really you?’ I showed some pictures to my friends and they can’t believe it was me.
“It’s motivating seeing that. When I see myself in that picture I can’t even believe it’s me – it feels like a different life.
“It’s not just a new body though, it’s a new mindset. It feels like I’ve started a new life.
“So my diet was different. I can’t even say it was a diet at all. It was just eat everything you see, drink everything you want.
“So like beer, crisps and all the sweet stuff. I’ve got a really sweet tooth. My weight was 115kg. I have no idea what my body fat was because I never measured it.
He says that even his mother thought he was genetically predisposed to be overweight and unfit.
“My mother, she was so excited when she saw me doing this transformation because she never thought that I was able to get that V shape or abs.
“I feel much more confident and I feel much happier. I feel like I can do much more. I just feel like I’ve just completed one of my biggest challenges so now I know I can do something more. That’s a great feeling.
“I think the first results came after a few weeks when I lost about 4kg. It was so quick I couldn’t believe that when I stepped up on the scales.
“Because some people always say they’re trying to lose weight but when they step on the scales they’re always stuck on the same number – or they’re eating less and they’re still on the same number.
“After the sessions, you feel like a star. You’re pumped you can see your muscles and it motivates you.
“That’s the best motivation when you see yourself in the mirror or you see those numbers or results.
“You know that you’re growing and you know you’re getting leaner. You know it’s working. And if it’s working then why not continue?
“But a personal trainer helps to make sure you do your exercises correctly and makes sure you’re not going to get any injuries. This means you can go with a heavier weight and get better results.
“Secondly, those last three reps, you won’t really ever be able to do them on your own. You just don’t have enough strength.
“Training here, I discovered myself. I discovered my body and I found out that I can do much more than I expected for myself.
“I realised I’m much stronger than I thought. That makes me feel more confident. It makes me feel like I’m ready for new challenges and that’s amazing.

Then it happened! I had my game changing moment.
I know it sounds funny: Permission? To love?
But it’s exactly what you’re going to have to give yourself if you want to be successful in your new ready-made family.
If you’ve ever had a child of your own, you know the great love that begins to grow inside your heart with every kick, every ultrasound, and every purchase of itty bitty shoes. The forty weeks of pregnancy created not only a full term baby but also a full blown mother’s heart. By the time you finally held that baby in your arms, you would do anything for them to the point of giving up your very life. It was a no brainer — you were in LOVE!
Bonus children don’t come with that kind of love lay-a-way plan.
They’re usually the part of the package deal that you could have done without. You would have preferred if the man of your dreams was sold separately and not part of a ready-made family kit. But what can you say? You’re in love with him. And so, with that revelation, you reconcile your mind to the fact that he comes with his ex and his children included.
I felt very put out by having to raise someone else’s children. I’ve never really felt like a very maternal sort of women in the first place. I didn’t even desire a child until seven years into my first marriage. Now, don’t get me wrong. I loved being a mom, after it finally happened, but signing up to live with kids that I shared no DNA with made me feel like I was babysitting kids that were never going to leave. I loved the shared parenting agreement we had in our early marriage because it meant that every Sunday they were going to leave, and I wasn’t going to see them again for three whole days. I remember encouraging myself with: “Just one more day, just one more day!” I dreaded Wednesdays like some people dread Mondays because that was the first day the kids would come back to stay at our home for the week.
“Now, were they bad kids?” you may ask. No, not really.
They were just a regular nine and eleven year old. They were trying to adjust in the same way I was, and they had moments of sass and attitude; but, for the most part, they were good. None of that mattered. It was the very fact that I had to “deal” with them. Of course, as the woman I felt responsible for them and was compelled to mother them and see to their needs and I resented it!
After about a year, I thought we had fallen into a nice routine.
We seemed to iron out all the rough spots and things were moving along pretty smoothly. I didn’t feel particularly close to my new offspring, but there was no drama and I thought that was enough for me. Every now and then I felt a pain of guilt that I didn’t really feel very loving towards my bonus kids. I had tried, I reassured myself, but every time I tried there would be a bump in the road. They would act out, I would feel rejected or have an issue with their mom, and we would get set right back into our formal relationship of caretaker and dependents.
I stood at the sink washing off a dish and noticed it was nearly time for the school bus to arrive. I worked from home at the time, and I was in the routine of going up to my room right about this time to take a shower and getting cleaned up after working in my pajamas all day long. Yes, this is what it really looks like to work from home. It always surprises the UPS guy when I open the door at 1: 30pm looking like I’ve just crawled out of a box somewhere. You can see the question in his eyes: “Are you sick?” I always want to say “Hello, this hairstyle is called: “And I didn’t brush my teeth either.” But this day was different. I had what Oprah calls an “A-HA” moment. I realized that by waiting purposely until it was time for the kids to come home to get cleaned up I could put a bedroom door between me and them. I wanted to hide from them, withdraw, so I didn’t have to interact. I wouldn’t have to figure out what to say to them, and I wouldn’t have to feel that guilt inside I always felt when I realized: I just really wished it was any day but Wednesday. I had this sinking feeling in my stomach now that I had to come face to face with the truth about my situation. I dreaded my own life. I dropped the dish in the water and began to cry. I can’t do this, I hate feeling this way. I wish I could just love these kids. Then it happened, a thought, a little ray of light breaking through the black clouds of despair: “Why don’t you give yourself permission to love them?” What? What was that? Permission? And then it hit me: it was me, not them, who was keeping this relationship from progressing. They weren’t holding back; after all, they’re kids. They wanted my attention, my approval, and my love. It was me. I was afraid of them. I was afraid they wouldn’t love me back because I’m not their “real” mother. I feared they might reject me as they got older in favor of the people they shared DNA with, and it scared the hell out of me. “Don’t get close! Just keep your distance!” This was the solution my unconscious mind came up with to solve the problem. And up until this moment, it had worked.
No matter how safe you feel in any relationship, loving someone is always taking a risk. People change as time goes on and sometimes not for the better. The relationships you once thought were so strong begin to show signs of weakness and fragility and, sometimes, they even fall apart. I’ve experienced this my entire life while watching as the grownups in my life came and went. I never really felt like I could get close to anyone in case they wouldn’t be there tomorrow; or, even worse, they would be there, but wouldn’t want me there anymore. I never thought these childhood experiences with my own parents and family would affect me as a parent myself, but they had and I had to do something about it.
And that, my sisters, makes every Wednesday the best day of the week!

I’m learning to let go of some people from my life….it’s HARD. I come from a blended family and also have something called COMPLEX PTSD and attachment issues….this article spoke to me like uou wouldnt BELIEVE!!!
Great article, I related to it in so many levels, as a step mom and also , from the child’s perspective. I want and feel I allow myself to love my step children but I wish so bad that my husband gave himself permission to love my son. It’s a challenging and frustrating journey the one we’ve taken as blended families, I just pray and hope that at the end it’s all worth it. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Great post Jackie❤️ The child is an independent being, not only a genetic progeny. If the newly incarnated soul is recognized as such and supported by love, it will be more able to mindfully accomplish the purposes for which it joined the family. It’s our loved ones that matter most in the world, so it’s such a shame if we focus exclusively on work and neglect our home, especially if that is done to avoid taking responsibility for relationship problems within the family.

The landscaping at the Vermont Plat House is proceeding nicely. Some fresh pictures arrived today so I thought I would share them. Although there are plants in place I understand that a landscape designer will be planting the garden. I'm not sure about the place-holders we see but I suspect the owner has planted them in the meantime. That's stone mason Dan Zimmer from Middlebury Vermont who has done the stone paving we see here as well as the dry set stone wall that borders the driveway. The owner designed the hardscape and Dan's done a great job with it.

The floor slab for the house has been poured and we have received photos of the crew working on it. And today we will look at the third and final installment on the design process for the three structures we are building in New Mexico. At the site you can see the slab pour going in and the crew working feverishly to place the concrete while its workability is right. The "landscape" of the floor slab consists of several stub ups for plumbing, and recessed areas for shower tile setting beds, and the most prominent feature is the recessed area for the media room. If you have not lived in a house with a slab on grade before, or have never seen one built it may come as a surprise that a good deal of work must happen before that goes down. There is just one chance to get it right, so things like plumbing drains which must go down are going to spend their life under a slab - inaccessible. That has to go in right the first time, and come up through the floor in exactly the right spot to correspond with the walls that will follow. While they get ready for the arrival of the first steel parts we will look back at the most curious structure of the three - the observatory. The owner, an astronomy enthusiast, has had a very good quality instrument to work with, but always desired a fixed facility for an even more powerful instrument. This project was his opportunity to see that happen. Working on this design was an education for us. I've always been interested in space and astronomy but never had a telescope. My brother and several friends have good telescopes but nothing that a consumer could not order from a catalog. This was different. The scope in this case is a precision instrument. It was going to be housed in a 16ft diameter dome with an operating aperture and motor driven base - just like the big boys. We did not have to design this - it is procured from a company that specializes in their fabrication. But we had to design up to it and support it. Adjacent to the dome is an equipment room. Here will reside computer equipment and tools and supplies to maintain the instrument. The computers control the tracking of the instrument, as well as manage image acquisition. You an use an eye-piece with the scope but the primary mode is a high res CCD capturing images and serving them to the operator who is remote. A web based interface allows for control as well as imaging so this is something that can be used where ever you have an internet connection. You do not need to be at the facility. So we have these two parts - the equipment room which is conditioned for the electronics within. And the Dome which is not conditioned - it is intended to remain at ambient temperature so that when the dome is opened there is no thermal expansion or movement that would put the instrument out of calibration. We needed man access from the equipment room to the dome, as well as cargo access. So we have two hatches, one with a compact Lapeyre alternating tread stair, and the other clear for hoisting. The instrument lives within, elevated so that its pivot corresponds with the geometric center of the dome. It has its own foundation pillar which prevents any vibration of the building from transmitting into its mount. Once documented it underwent engineering and detailing in advance of its fabrication which is ongoing now. For the next update we should have the arrival of materials at the site.

One of the items to be finished is the installation of the screening for the porches. It is now under way. This is the screened porch off of the guest bedrooms. It is also accessed directly from the living room. There are still a lot of window stickers to be removed and it looks like the satellite down-link is in place!
