To celebrate National Poetry Day on 7 October, the British Library releases two new additions to its popular series of literary spoken word CDs, featuring many previously unpublished recordings of great British and American poets of the 20th century reading their own poems and often with their own spoken introductions. From T S Eliot's sombre, measured reading from 'The Waste Land' to William Carlos Williams' confident, humorous reading of 'This is Just to Say' and the gravelly purr of Walter de la Mare introducing and reading 'Thomas Hardy', these CDs comprise a wealth of rare historic recordings.
Students opt for quality of life over nightlife when choosing University
As students start making their way back for the start of the new term, a new survey published today reveals that the majority of students base their decision on which university to attend by the quality of the academic course rather than the overall reputation of the university or, as is often assumed, the town's nightlife.

Verstappen: F1 2022 rules not designed to stop Mercedes
Red Bull driver Max Verstappen has dismissed suggestions that the 2022 Formula 1 regulations are designed to stop Mercedes from dominating and says they "need to make racing more exciting".
In 2022, F1 moves to all-new technical regulations with cars designed to improve the show through a reduction of downforce.
The shift from downforce primarily generated by the surface of the car to a more ground-effect driven concept should reduce turbulent air, which has prevented drivers from racing each other closely for a number of years.
The technical changes coincide with the introduction of a budget cap and a more equitable prize money structure, as part of a wide-ranging overhaul of the sport to level the playing field.
Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff argued some of the changes are designed to put the brakes on his team's crushing display of dominance in the V6 hybrid era, Mercedes scooping up all drivers' and constructors' titles since 2014.
Wolff said that "everything has been done to stop us", but that the new 2022 challenge "will motivate" the Brackley outfit to stay on top.
Red Bull's Verstappen, the driver who has been the biggest threat to Mercedes drivers Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas in both 2019 and 2020, refutes Wolff's claims that the new regulations are designed to stop Mercedes from winning.
Verstappen argues that the technical changes are necessary to improve the show.
"No, I think those rules are just the result of new owners listening to teams and drivers," Verstappen said in Turkey when asked about Wolff's comments by Motorsport.com.
"They hear that it is really difficult to overtake and that we want more close racing.
"You could see the current issues at Imola for example. Valtteri drove around with a car that was three to four tenths slower because of the damage, but I couldn't get past him.
"Even though I was much faster, you could see that once I did get past him. We have to find a solution for that."
Verstappen has enjoyed the unpredictability of the 2020 MotoGP season and hopes F1's new rules will make qualifying less decisive in the future.
"We need the racing in F1 to be more exciting and drivers to be able to follow other cars more closely and not that qualifying is the deciding factor during a race weekend as it is right now," the Dutchman added.
"Take a look at the MotoGP championship for example. Even if you qualify tenth, you can still win the race. That hardly happens in Formula 1, just because it's so difficult to follow other cars at most of our circuits.
"I think that's why the new regulations are coming in from 2022 onwards. And whether those new rules will slow Mercedes down or not, you can't even say that at this moment."

Are these the real meanings for the CIOs job title or CFOs taking a pop?
Acronyms, our industry is awash with them, one of which being of course your humble job title. Officially we recognise it as being Chief Information Officer. Analysts suggest it should be changed to Chief Integration Officer, but, because today's Friday, we've scoured the world for alternative meanings that you may not want to add to your LinkedIn profile.
1 Career Is Over: It is obvious, but still a favourite and a gag that has a high mileage, but has become a classic and many CIOs have shared career is over jokes with us.
2 Cost Is Outrageous: One that harks back to the pre-alignment debate days when everyone else on the board thought IT and its head the CIO were nothing but a bottomless money pit.
3 Calls In Outsourcers: Chimes nicely with today's needs to cut costs and let's be honest if it's application development you need, then outsourced providers often have the best staff at the right cost.
4 Crikey Its Operational: No not the death cry of a terrible Aussie nature film maker but the response from staff when they discover that your SAP roll out was finished on time, on budget and all the data is still there.
5 Cloud Is Over-rated: One for the CIO who likes to keep that data close to home and not hanging about in some grid of unknown machines where a host of users beyond your organisation can attack it.
7 Coffee Is Overdue: What your PA thinks your job title means as in the pressured environment of today's economy it seems to be the only thing you have time to say to them. (Hint, now is the time to ask how they are before you forget and the CEO calls with a BlackBerry problem).
8 Call It Off: The hardest thing to say about a project that is dear to your technical heart and has gobbled up hours of programmer's time and budget, but occasionally it really must be uttered.
9 Change Is Ongoing: Not just a job title but a mantra, especially when staff and board members ask why the ERP system is being upgraded in what feels like weeks after you upgraded the document management system.
10 Clarity Is Occasional: This may be how you feel about the responses you get from vendors or your development team, but it is also what the board feel about you too.
11 Call It Opensource: A response for CIOs to use when a project fails to meet its objectives, throw it back to the workforce to suggest improvements, hell why not let them have the code and see if they can make enterprise search actually work.
12 Can't Install Optimisations: Coming to a dialog box near you, the grey CIO box that alerts users to the fact that you didn't upgrade their hardware or software with the budget from the last quarter, so all those optimisations your team installed are not actually available to improve productivity for at least another quarter. Oh, what's that, you've gone over to half yearly reports and budgets too!
13 Call Indian Office: In the modern organisation no CIO has the budget for people in the UK office that can actually customise an application, and anyway even with record unemployment, no one in Britain studied something useful like IT, they all did Media Studies degrees and work in PR. No if you need something urgently done to your systems, the CIO will demand you call the Indian Office where there is a mass of clever people who can build applications as quickly Jenson Button drives.
14 Chaos Is Omnipresent: Chaos is the new order, blame it on the internet. Your job as CIO is to keep chaos levels steady so it doesn't disturb the CEOs game of golf. Your job is to stop bloggers and Twitter mad customers revealing how bad your customer service is because the CRM system doesn't work, you've got to prevent hackers penetrating the firewall, back office staff need to comply with a host of new regulations and if you don't have a spot on e-commerce system you don't have any customers.
15 Car Is Ordered: You've made it. You have chief in your job title and a seat on the board, now you need the car to demonstrate your importance and the fleet manager has just the thing for you on order. In your mind it's the new Jaguar, or perhaps it's a Lotus Elise, maybe something exotic, Maserati even do a four door saloon these days. Trouble is, the PR department has got to the fleet manager and expounded the need for the company to have high green credentials, so your car on order is a Gee Whiz!


The Shared Services Centre, established to provide IT and corporate services to the federal departments of education and employment, is interested in eventually expanding its use of cloud services to cover production systems, according to Susan Monkley, its CIO and deputy CEO.
However, despite a successful pilot of infrastructure-as-a-service for dev and test environments, regulatory restrictions mean it's unlikely the use of public cloud for production is an option in the immediate future.
The SSC was created after the demerger of the Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations in September.
The organisation already makes extensive use of public cloud services for dev and test environments, Monkley this week told Gartner's Application Architecture, Development and Integration Summit in Sydney.
The Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations began a trial employing Amazon Web Services in March last year.
"We were one of the first adopters in terms of the Australian government to go more wholly into the cloud space, not just for hosting websites but actually for starting to move some of our development and test environments into the cloud," said Monkley, who is also CIO at the Department of Education.
It's a little hard to deny that going down the cloud path has been incredibly beneficial when it's reducing our costs by about 50 per cent at this point in time.
The CIO earlier this year told Computerworld Australia that the organisation considered the results pilot of the pilot to be positive.
"We knew well before we were finished it that this was something that was absolutely worth pursuing," the CIO told the Gartner conference.
"There are some exceptions for us because of the Australian government policies that exist — we're unable to put personal or sensitive data into the cloud and there are still a few technical issues around high performance, but at the moment we are putting all new dev and test environments into the cloud."
Monkley said that he organisation will look at migrating legacy dev and test environments. "And then we'll also look at production environments as well," she told the conference.
"Some of that is dependent on government policy direction," the CIO added. "But as my team know well, I have an absolute strong support for the scale and the performance capability that comes from the Amazon cloud environment that we're running at the moment – it is delivering great benefits to our business and the cost reductions have been substantial."
"It's a little hard to deny that going down the cloud path has been incredibly beneficial when it's reducing our costs by about 50 per cent at this point in time," Monkley said.
The CIO said that cost reductions from shifting to cloud can't always be realised straight away. "You actually need to do it in line with asset refresh cycles," she said.
Government policy imposes limitations on the use of public cloud services in some circumstances — involving private data, for example — the CIO said. "Also ... we didn't want to jump too far, too fast," she added.
"This is, in some ways, a significant enough cultural change within the organisation ... getting the dev and test environments into the cloud let alone then rolling it into the production environments.
"It's also partly because the environments we're running are the construct of years and years and years of mergers and demergers, so we've got a range of legacy systems that run on really old infrastructure that to be quite frank are not cloud ready at this point in time."
Hybrid cloud will be part of the SSC's future: "It is about the right combination of services that deliver the right outcomes for our business customers. We will move workloads to the cloud at appropriate trigger points, whether that be around the asset refresh cycle, whether it be a major upgrade to our platforms, or whether it be a new project. It will be in the form of private cloud but integrated with multiple cloud providers."
Monkley added that she doesn't envisage the organisation ever scrapping its on-premise systems completely.
Monkley told the conference that there were five key lessons that her team had learned through the cloud pilot.
"Start small because you do need to build internal capability," the CIO said. "It is a new approach and if you try [to] bite off too much in one go, it actually becomes really complex and you start to lose people in the journey. Start small, build on that, build the case and it starts to become quite evident where the opportunities lie."
"It's important to architect appropriately," Monkley said. "Importantly, the cloud provider is not responsible for your infrastructure architecture. Know your availability requirements. You may want to try to leave that up to them, but they're the things that are actually fundamental to your business so it's important that you actually really think through how that applies to your operation."
"Some of the greatest benefits that we've realised actually come from automating and standardising service requests," the CIO said. "You're actually taking a large chunk of manual workload out by focusing on automation."
"Another thing that's really important for Australian government but also for many others is actually making sure that your cloud provider has the requisite security accreditations," the CIO said.
"It can be quite limiting in the Australian government context if they don't. It means it can delay things considerably while you actually go through those accreditation processes."
Monkley said that a transition to the cloud is likely to encounter resistance within organisations. "It was very clear the importance of not underestimating the degree of resistance and the degree of change and transformation that you need to take people through," the CIO said. Even shifting dev and test to cloud involves a significant cultural shift.

Power Integrations' New PI Expert Suite 9.0 Power Supply Design Software Supports LED Lighting
Power Integrations (Nasdaq: POWI), the leader in high-voltage integrated circuits for energy-efficient power conversion, today announced that the latest version of its popular power supply design software, PI Expert Suite 9.0, now includes support for its LinkSwitch™-PL and LinkSwitch-PH LED-driver ICs and its recently introduced TinySwitch™-4 off-line switcher IC family. Version 9.0 includes an enhanced schematics-manipulation tool. It also enables designers to upload the resulting BOM from the auto-generated schematic layout to selected, leading design-fulfillment distributors.
PI's software improves productivity with enhanced schematics-manipulation tool and BOM output to design-fulfillment distributors
PI Expert Suite 9.0 improves the productivity of power supply design teams by greatly reducing the time to first prototype and by slashing the number of prototype iterations required to reach a finished product. The software now includes support for solid-state-lighting products, enabling LED designs to be optimized for CC, dimming and harmonic emissions. As with previous-generations, PI Expert Suite 9.0 generates a complete schematic of the power supply and offers power transformer optimization techniques, even specifying the transformer design and offering links to wound component manufacturers. A heatsink calculation tool provides the designer with an estimation of the thermal design requirements for a new power supply which may be used to guide layout and mechanical prototyping decisions - avoiding iterations and wasted time. Enhanced PCB layout recommendations based on the IC device and package chosen allow the designer to minimize trace-induced EMI and board area, and also maximize electrical noise immunity and surge tolerance.
Comments Peter Vaughan, director of applications engineering at Power Integrations: "LED-lighting engineers face difficult electrical, mechanical and thermal challenges as they continue to develop innovative solid-state-lighting products. PI Expert remains the only comprehensive PSU design tool capable of satisfying the demands of both experienced and new power supply designers alike. With support for our LinkSwitch-PL and LinkSwitch-PH ICs, they can achieve a better, more efficient solution in a shorter time."

news UK Pay strategy Pay strategy Tax and legislation
Primark and Sports Direct named on minimum wage non-compliance list
By Katie Scott	 8th December 2017 11:21 am 8th December 2017 11:21 am
Retail organisations Primark and Sports Direct are among the 260 employers named by the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) for failure to pay employees the national minimum wage and national living wage.
Primark, which ranked third on the government's list of organisations that have underpaid staff the minimum wage, failed to pay £231,973,12 to 9,735 employees. Sports Direct, which was placed fourth on the list, failed to pay £167,036.24 to 383 employees.
Employment organisation The Best Connection Group topped the government's list for failing to pay 2,558 employees a total of £469,273.83, while recruitment organisation Qualitycourse, trading as Transline Group, ranked in second place for its failure to pay £310,302.12 to 1,421 staff.
Other organisations that feature on the list include Edward Mackay Contractor, which failed to pay £51,403.65 to four employees, and Ramside Estates, which failed to pay eight employees £17,536.59.
The government's naming and shaming scheme, which came in to effect in October 2013, names employers which have underpaid staff by paying them less than the national minimum wage and national living wage rates. These employers are issued with a notice of underpayment, unless employers meet one of the exceptional criteria or have arrears of £100 or less. Organisations that feature on the published list are required to back pay arrears of wages to affected employees, and can face financial penalties of up to 200% of arrears, capped at £20,000 per employee, or prosecution in the most serious cases.
Employers on today's (8 December 2017) list have been fined £1.3 million in total, and more than 16,000 UK employees are expected to receive back pay amounting to £1.7 million.
Sectors that particularly came under fire during this naming and shaming round include the hospitality sector, where 58 organisations are required to back pay 288 employees, the hairdressing industry, where 40 businesses failed to pay 118 employees, and the retail sector, with 34 organisations that neglected to pay 11,072 employees the minimum wage.
Since the scheme's introduction in 2013, £8 million has been paid in back pay to 58,000 employees and a total of 1,500 employers have been fined £5 million overall. This year, the government committed to spend a record £25.3 million on minimum wage enforcement.
Margot James, business minister, said: "There is no excuse for not paying staff the wages they're entitled to and the government will come down hard on businesses that break the rules.
"That's why today we are naming hundreds of employers which have been short changing their [employees] and, to ensure there are consequences for their wallets as well as their reputation, we've levied million in back pay and fines."
Bryan Sanderson, chairman at the Low Pay Commission, added: "The Low Pay Commission's conversations with employers suggest that the risk of being named is encouraging businesses to focus on compliance.
"Further, it is good to see that HMRC [HM Revenue and Customs] continues to target large employers which have underpaid a large number of [employees], as well as cases involving only a few [employees], where [staff] are at risk of the most serious exploitation. It is imperative that the government keeps up the pressure on all employers that commit breaches of minimum wage law."

The Queen's Fool
#1 New York Times bestselling author and "queen of royal fiction" ( USA TODAY ) Philippa Gregory weaves a spellbinding tale of a young woman with the ability to see the future in an era when destiny was anything but clear.
Winter, 1553. Pursued by the Inquisition, Hannah Green, a fourteen-year-old Jewish girl, is forced to flee with her father from their home in Spain. But Hannah is no ordinary refugee; she has the gift of "Sight," the ability to foresee the future, priceless in the troubled times of the Tudor court. Hannah is adopted by the glamorous Robert Dudley, the charismatic son of King Edward's protector, who brings her to court as a "holy fool" for Queen Mary and, ultimately, Queen Elizabeth. Hired as a fool but working as a spy; promised in wedlock but in love with her master; endangered by the laws against heresy, treason, and witchcraft, Hannah must choose between the safe life of a commoner and the dangerous intrigues of the royal family that are inextricably bound up with her own yearnings and desires.
Teeming with vibrant period detail and peopled by characters seamlessly woven into the sweeping tapestry of history, The Queen's Fool is a rich and emotionally resonant gem from a masterful storyteller.
Publisher: New York ; Toronto, Ont. : Simon & Schuster, c2004.

Read after THE TAMING OF THE QUEEN
Miss_Bee Apr 03, 2018
I think this was my favourite book by Phillipa Gregory after the Other Boleyn Girl. Although Hannah is not a real character, her story mixed in with historical story is soo good. I love it. I have read this book three times already and will probably read it again :)
BWellsJean Oct 06, 2015
I had just finished reading Philippa Gregory's latest book, so decided to read this which followed right on the heals of that in history. Such good timing since I was already familiar with the royal fool, Will Somers, from The Taming of the Queen.
jurban1983 Jul 06, 2013
Another hit from Gregory! I loved this book!
japandemonium Jul 26, 2011
I feel as if I have read this one before...
bookfanatic1979 Mar 30, 2011
This novel intrigued me because, though I've read several historical fiction books concerning the machinations of various figures of English royalty, I've never heard of Hannah. And, it turns out, for good reason. It's still a good read, but I'm so used to Gregory's main characters being "real" people that I was deeply disappointed to discover the truth behind Hannah's life.
rlt232s Feb 27, 2011
I really enjoyed this book. I started reading it just to have something to read. It kept me entertained up to the end. This time in history has always fascinated me and I'm glad to be able to learn more of the relationship between Mary and Elizabeth through it.
The_Zookeeper Dec 22, 2010
A story that shows the hardship of being Jewish during Bloody Mary's terrifing reign.
jjens01 Nov 20, 2010
Great book on England in the 1500ès. Great author. will continue to read her other books
HylaryL Jun 07, 2010
I thought this book was okay. Wasn't my favorite of the series by Philippa Gregory, but was pretty good. The story of Hannah the Fool was interesting and was a good backdrop to show the relationship between Mary and Elizabeth after their father and brother's deaths.
jurban1983 thinks this title is suitable for 14 years and over

Mobile network operators (MNOs) O2, Three and Vodafone have made an appeal for telecoms regulator Ofcom to work with them to help them access wholesale dark fibre as a means to help them enhance capacity for their soon-to-be-built 5G mobile networks.
Openreach had been on the verge of launching a wholesale dark fibre access (DFA) product to enable CSPs to deliver their own connectivity services using its dark fibre network on the orders of Ofcom, but it shelved the launch in August 2017 after successfully appealing to the Competition Appeals Tribunal on the basis of errors made by the regulator on a number of key points.
At the time, market watchers noted that Openreach's decision would potentially have severe ramifications for mobile operators, which badly need more fibre backhaul to address the needs of data-hungry customers using their ever-growing 4G networks.
This prediction appears to be coming true, and with commercial 5G networks now a year closer to reality, the need for fibre to support the massive capacity promise of 5G is becoming even more urgent.
Speaking at the annual Connected Britain event, O2 UK COO Derek McManus said the current environment around fibre was not conducive to his plans to roll-out an effective 5G network in the UK.
"Fibre in the UK still falls behind many of the developed nations, particularly for residential and mobile. We need that market to be developed and made more competitive to encourage faster deployment of 5G," said McManus.
Dave Dyson, CEO of Three, which recently signed an agreement with SSE Enterprise Telecoms to bring 20 core datacentres on-net with new fibre connections in preparation for 5G, agreed that in regulatory terms, things were not where they needed to be to guarantee an on-schedule launch of 5G services.
"Fibre is critically important to 5G… We need access to ducts, poles and dark fibre," said Dyson.
Vodafone's chief strategy officer, Vishal Dixit, said the issue of dark fibre kept him awake at night, and called for Ofcom to support unrestricted access to the resource.
The operators unanimously agreed that there was now an urgent need for more government and regulatory action to help them roll out 5G, particularly around liberalising planning legislation and site acquisition laws that they believe stifles their incentive and ability to invest.
"The government has a bold ambition for 5G, but it needs to back it up with bold decisions on how we work with planners and landlords to speed up roll-out," added Dyson.
Vodafone's Dixit said a sense of urgency was now needed, because planning, designing and building networks takes a long time, and 2020 is edging closer.
"There is not much time left for us all to collaborate to be sure on the prerequisites for 5G – dark fibre being one of them. We are in a better place in terms of alignment and collaboration, but if we want [the UK] to be a 5G leader, urgency is needed," he said.
5G mobile networks are not the be-all and end-all when it comes to delivering consistent nationwide connectivity, says network standards expert William Webb.
We are at the beginning of a new era of global connectivity. Tata Communications' Tim Sherwood explains why telcos are investing in 5G to transport larger amounts of data at higher speeds.

Will I be compensated for missed work?
The last question is crucial. When you hire an attorney, they'll help you work through all of these issues and more.
there may also be a claim for property damage.
Working with a legal professional is a smart idea after you suffer an injury in a car accident. He or she can help you recover the maximum amount of compensation that you deserve. Also, you may need an attorney to help you deal with the insurance company in the pre-litigation stage and navigate you through court system of the litigation phase.
More importantly, an attorney will help get you the best settlement or judgment possible. They will investigate your accident and build your case. This includes proving the fault of the negligent party, calculating your damages, and negotiating with an insurance adjuster for a fair settlement.
In California, there are many procedures and laws in places that can make a personal injury case difficult to navigate. While you have no obligation to hire an attorney, it makes things easier.
Hiring a car accident lawyer will help your claim go much smoother. An attorney knows the statute of limitations, understands vehicle codes, is familiar with terms such as "burden of proof." They also understand which experts are needed in these types of accidents.
What's more, an attorney can also handle the costs associated with securing the resources and experts necessary for pursuing your case. Experts' fees can total in the hundreds or thousands of dollars, and accident reconstructions, investigations, document organization, and more all require financing and people. A law firm will have the resources that your case deserve.
Car accidents frequently leave vehicles with thousands of dollars worth of damage. Your insurance company may bring a subrogation claim on your behalf if necessary. The reason your insurance company files a subrogation claim is to recover damages they paid. This is typical in cases where the other driver was at fault.
This type of action is usually done between the insurance companies themselves. However, your insurance company needs your cooperation to get the facts of the case. They may also seek independent witness testimony to assist with disputed facts.
In some cases, you may even be able to recover the deductible you paid to repair damages. Understanding who is at fault for a crash, with whom to file a claim, and how much you will get in compensation can be confusing. An attorney is your advocate during the process and is there to help you understand exactly what you need to do and how to competently navigate the process.
At the same time, it may not be necessary to hire an attorney in cases when there is no insurance.
The longer that you wait to hire an attorney, the harder that it may be to get the compensation you deserve. An attorney can be a valuable asset to help you recover damages for injuries. Contact us today for a free consultation.


The following scheme for the development of a Local Museum was laid before representative members of the Huddersfield corporation, at a meeting held at the Town Hall, on August 8th, 1919, under the Chairmanship of the Mayor, Alderman Carmi Smith, J.P. Mr. Legh Tolson was also present. After careful consideration it was agreed to recommend the scheme for adoption by the County Borough Council, and through the kindness of Alderman Wilfrid Dawson, it was printed and circulated to the members of the Corporation. Mr Legh Tolson's generous offer of Ravensknowle Hall and Grounds, was accepted by the Council at their meeting held on July 16th, 1919, and the deed of gift, to which a copy of the Museum Scheme was attached, was completed on December 31st, 1919.
To meet demands for copies of the Museum Scheme, this new edition has been prepared, by request of the Committee, and the opportunity has been taken to slightly expand the original condensed statement, so as to make it more generally useful.
At my request, Mr. Tolson has very kindly allowed us to include in this Handbook his account of the history of Ravensknowle.
On May 14th, 1921, the grounds were opened to the public, and since then considerable progress has been made by the Head Gardener, Mr. W. Forbes, and his staff, in carrying out the necessary alterations.
To the right of the main entrance, Tennis Courts have been provided on the site of the kitchen garden, and opposite the south front of the Hall a Bowling Green has been made on the site of a former Tennis Court.
The shrubberies are being considerably modified and stocked with an interesting collection of forest trees and shrubs, also new herbaceous borders, rock and water gardens have been planned. In this work the Committee is greatly indebted to Sir Isaac Bayley Balfour, Director of the Royal Botanic Garden, Edinburgh, for his generous gift of a large number of plants, and for his kindly interest in our scheme.
The band stand in the Recreation Grounds is from Royds Hall, and is the one used at the Military Hospital there during the Great War.
The Sundial to the west of the Bowling Green has been made and presented by Mr. Alfred Hadaway, of Dalton, and rests on a large ice-transported sandstone boulder found at Hillhouse in the deposits above the shales in the works of the Huddersfield Brick, Tile and Stone company, by whom it was kindly given.
It is with much pleasure we record the readiness with which many residents in the neighbourhood have volunteered to act as Stewards, and to encourage visitors to appreciate their own property and protect it from damage. Very gratifying, too, is the sincere appreciation of the public for the provision of this beautiful spot as a place for rest and recreation in the midst of a crowded population.
In April, 1920, the Governors of the Technical College agreed to transfer to Ravensknowle a large number of cabinets, cases and specimens in their possession. The principal collections were the Alfred Beaumont Collection of British Birds, the Samuel Learoyd collection of Minerals, the Cases and Collections of the Literary and Scientific Society, also a considerable number of specimens brought together by Mr. S.L. Mosley during the time he was Curator of the College Museum. At the time of the transfer, Mr. Mosley was invited to continue as Curator of the Tolson Memorial Museum, under the direction of the Committee, and develop it on the lines suggested in the scheme adopted by the council. Mr. Charles Mosley was appointed Assistant Curator and Clerk to the committee. Since the transfer, the Curator and his staff have been working assiduously in preparing objects for the Museum, and it is hoped the work will be sufficiently advanced to justify an opening at Easter, 1922.
At a meeting of the County Borough Council held October 19th this year, it was decided to transfer the Meteorological Instruments from Edgerton Cemetery to Ravensknowle, and establish a new station was founded in 1876 by the late Mr. James Firth, who was formerly Head Gardener for Mr. Wm. Edwards Hirst, at Lascelles Hall. The remarkably hot and dry summer of 1868 first aroused in Mr. Firth an interest in weather phenomena. He had previously made isolated notes of outstanding occurrences, especially the intense frost of 1860.
In the severe winter of 1870–1, when 33 deg. Of frost were registered on New Year's Day, he decided to commence regular observations of the weather. From December 21st, 1870, this daily local record of the weather was continued in an unbroken sequence.
From 1871 to 1875, Mr. Firth supplied monthly and yearly summaries of his observations to the local press; and on his appointment as Registrar of Edgerton Cemetery in 1876 he transferred his instruments, and continued the work there until his decease in 1895. meanwhile there had been a general development in the science of Meteorology, and these records gained in value with the lapse of time. Weekly reports were supplied to the Medical Officer of Health and also to the Registrar general in London.
Twenty-seven years ago Mr. Joe Firth succeeded his father. The renewal of some of the instruments became necessary, and a reorganisation of the station took place to meet the requirements of the Meteorological Office in London, so as to bring it into line with other towns, and obtain official recognition as the local Meteorological Station in connection with the Office. Extensive detailed weekly and monthly returns were now furnished, which were added to 1910, when a rearrangement was affected, and the County Borough Council undertook the whole of the upkeep of the Station. The following is a list of the present instruments; Standard Kew Barometer, Standard 8-in. Rain Gauge, Clockwork Self-Recording Rain Gauge, Anemometer, and the following Thermometers, Solar Maximum, Grass Minimum, Shade Minimum, Shade Maximum, Dry and Wet Bulbs, Earth Thermometers, 1ft. and 4ft. underground. The transference will take place at the end of the present year, and Mr. Charles Mosley has been appointed Recorder.
The photograph of Ravensknowle Hall was taken by Mr. W.H. Sikes in October, 1919, and shows the south front of the Hall while Mr. Tolson was still in residence there. Mr. Sikes also supplied the photograph for some of the figures included in this booklet.
The two plans in the booklet prepared by Mr. H. Sutcliffe, the Borough Architect, show the sequence of rooms in the Museum, and are numbered in the order to be visited so as to follow the history and development of the district.
The generous assistance rendered by all sections to make the Museum thoroughly representative, is evidence of their appreciation of its value to the community, and we look forward confidently to still further aid as the scheme becomes more widely known.
The willingness with which leading authorities in their several departments of knowledge are helping us to build up a Museum worthy of its object, its donor, and of our town, is one of the most pleasing and encouraging features. Science and art are instinctive givers, and it is to this spirit we owe what is most valuable in our scheme.

I have inherited an Icinga install running on Ubuntu Server, so I will be needing to run CLI commands to create checks. Simply runnning the installer does not work, as the vmware-cli package is a mixture of 32 and 64 bit commands.
This includes a bunch of Perl modules for munching through XML, plus some 32-bit libraries so that all the tools can work.
I have not tested it, but this will probably be the same process for Debian (at least Wheezy and Sid).

Bernstein: West Side Story- Symphonic Dances / Candide- Overture / On the Town- 3 Dance Episodes / On the Waterfront- Orchestral Suite
By CBS Masterworks / Sony
Nothing can compare with Bernstein's own accounts of his music. The best recordings are still the ones he made with the New York Philharmonic for Columbia, when scores such as Candide and West Side Story were still ''new'' music. Originally produced by John McClure (and remixed by him for CD), these recordings of the Candide Overture and the Symphonic Dances from West Side Story have never been bettered, not even by Bernstein. --Ted Libbey.

It spawned three Top 5 UK singles and the album itself peaked at No.3. In 2007 Andy McCluskey and Paul Humphreys reunited with Malcolm Holmes and Martin Cooper as OMD for an extensive tour of Europe. For the early part of this tour, including this concert recorded at London's Hammersmith Apollo in May, the concert was split into two halves. The first

Airplane Etiquette: Is It Rude To Recline Your Seat?
Have you been on a flight and someone in front of you reclined their seat at an inopportune moment? How did you react? What is the official airplane etiquette?
Here's the thing, a passenger has the right to recline their seat. However, there are ways travelers can go about exercising their right without being complete jerks about it.
Do you think it's rude to recline?
Depending on how it's handled it can be totally appropriate or completely rude. Your seat is made to recline for a reason. However, problems arise when people don't take into consideration the person sitting behind them. Here are a few of things you can do to not be completely jerky to passengers behind you.
Don't recline during food service. EVER.
Look back before you recline your seat.
Only recline your seat a smidge.
During super long flights, think about not having your seat reclined the whole flight.
How would you feel if you wanted to eat and the person in front of you has their seat in your lap? The seats in coach are already super cramped, please don't make it worse for your fellow passengers by encroaching on the already small space they have to eat.
Put yourself in the other person's shoes, would you want someone's seat in your face as you're eating? Of course, you wouldn't. Remember what that would feel like and don't do it to another person.
Isn't this easy for you to do? Simply look behind you and make sure the person doesn't have their head or computer or anything else on the tray table BEFORE you lean back. How many times have people been using one of their devices and someone rudely pushed their seat all the way back? This happens often and devices have been crushed and cracked. PLEASE don't be that person that gives not one iota about others.
If they are using the tray table a simple, "Hey I'm going to recline my seat. I just want to give you a heads up" does the trick. Simple, right? I don't believe in asking for permission for something you have the right to do, but it is kind to let them know you are about to do it. You can't be responsible for how they react but at least you gave them ample warning.
3. Only recline your seat a smidge.
Most seats in coach don't recline a tremendous amount. However, sometimes all you need is just a tiny bit of extra space to get comfortable. After you have throughly disinfected your seat, pulled out your blanket and your headphones, you may find you won't need to recline your seat the whole way. Having the right essentials can make the difference in your comfort level.
4. During super long flights, think about not having your seat reclined for the whole flight.
You aren't obliged to not recline but giving the person behind you a break is the nice thing to do. If you were on a 10-hour flight, wouldn't you be grateful if the person in front of you didn't have their seat all the way back the whole time?
No one is saying you have to sit with your seat straight up the whole time. That isn't a reasonable request. However, do you get up to walk around or go to the bathroom? Could you pull your seat up when you get up so the person behind you can have a bit of a reprieve? It's a simple matter of airplane etiquette!
You'll want to check out my 10 Red Eye Flight Survival & Etiquette Tips to make your flight as comfortable as possible too.
When a flight is only a few hours long, I don't recline my seat. Of course, I have the right to but I can go a few hours without moving my seat back a few inches. It doesn't hurt me and because I almost always have a travel pillow with me when I fly, I'm still comfortable. If you can, try leaving your seat erect. The person behind you will appreciate it.
These are simple suggestions and being courteous can go far when traveling, don't you think?
What do you think? Do you recline? What are your airplane etiquette pet peeves?
I absolutely agree that on shorter flights it's not needed at all to recline one's seat. Of course, if it's a long-haul flight it's sort of impossible to go the whole flight without reclining the seat, but for such situations I think your tips are perfect!


The Ripley, a Kangol Donegal Tweed newsboy cap, stands out because of its two-tone bill that stands out from the wool blend tweed outer shell. It is one-of-a-kind Kangol style, and it is built to last, as the bill is stitched and the inner cap is lined. The lightweight cap is made to be more comfortable with its cloth sweatband. The back has a leather strap with a "D" ring.

Oh Ducky Sketch Show: Bad Date Girl's date from hell
Season 2, Episode 2 of Oh Ducky Sketch Show is now online. It's a Bad Date Girl comedy sketch. You can watch this latest episode via YouTube and don't forget to subscribe so you don't end up missing out. The video is down bellow for you to watch or you can head over to the YouTube channel page by clicking here. Thank-you so much for showing your support, listen to me discussing my artistic process bellow too.
Please head over to my YouTube channel and subscribe so you never miss a video.
This comedy sketch is about a girl who ends up on a date with another girl (LGBT) love. Things go a little bit wrong though when Bad Date Girl turns up wearing a costume. She got a little confused and then terribly embarrassed. What's the most embarrassing date you've been on? Also, were you the one to make it embarrassing or was it the other person? I feel like I'm kinda always embarrassing myself. Yesterday, I accidentally walked into the men's toilets. There were men everywhere and I just stood there, not fully understanding what was happening. The worst part was that I went and did exactly the same thing the next day. I'll never learn.
I, Rosa Fairfield, play both characters in this sketch. Oh my goodness, that's so self-centered! No, it was never really my intention to play both characters. I just couldn't get anyone to do this one with me. No one even wants to fake date me. What can a girl do?
I had a lot of fun playing two characters in one scene though. I mean it was a lot more work, but still lots of fun. Also, I really wanted to have a go at playing a stereotypical kinda stuck-up socialite. I was writing the script and I had so many different ideas for the character. I just love playing those unique people that kinda stand-out from the crowd.
I have to say though, it was kinda weird filming this because I was just having a one sided conversation. I kinda had to imagine I was hearing the other character talking in my head. I got used to it after a while and there's a few more of these coming soon where I play multiple characters too. There's even a X-Files one that I'm really looking forward to.
I've been experimenting a lot with using animation and pointing out mistakes. I told someone what I was doing and they were like, 'no, why would you want to draw people's attention to the things you've done wrong'. I don't know, I think it's interesting... like, yep, I know this video isn't perfect. Maybe that's just me though, I do have some kinda low self-estem thing going on.
I'm trying to experiment with timing too, I like working to different rhythms and I try to pay attention to that when I'm editing too. As a socially awkward person, these characters are ending up looking a bit awkward. That wasn't intentional though, it just kinda happened.
Thank-you for humoring me and my artistic side. The sketch show is on every Friday 6:30 GMT, 1:30 EST.10:30 PST. Enjoy the show... or... I hope you do.

Q: Looping through entities and updating them causes error on flush I am new to symfony and doctrine. And I am compeleting a code that someone else has started. I mainly have a form for which I wrote a validation function in my controller. In this form a BusReservation object along with its BusReservationDetails are created and saved to the db. so at the end of the form validation function, after the entities are saved in DB, I call a BusReservation Manager method which is transformBusReservationDetailIntoBusTicket  which aim is to take each BusReservationDetail in the BusReservation oject and create a a new entity BusTicket based on it.
so I created this loop (please let me know if there is something wrong in my code so that i can write in a good syntax). I tried to put the 3 persist that you see at the end of the code but I got : Notice: Undefined index: 0000000..
I tried to merge (the last 3 lines in code ) I got the following :
A new entity was found through the relationship 'MyBundle\Entity\CustomInfo#busTicket' that was not configured to cascade persist operations for entity: . To solve this issue: Either explicitly call EntityManager#persist() on this unknown entity or configure cascade persist this association in the mapping for example @ManyToOne(..,cascade={"persist"}).
I got this same error when i commented all theh 6 lines of merge and flush.
PS: I am not expecting the flush to fully work. There are some properties that are nullable=false so I assume that I must set them as well so that the entities can be saved to DB. But the error i got is by far different than this.
PS : I noticed that there is a onFlush where the customInfo is updated and persisted again and other things happen, but i am trying to debug step by step. I tried to detach this event but still got the same errors. so I want to fix my code and make sure that the code part that i wrote in the manager is correct and if that's the case then I can move to debugging the event Listener. so please I would like to know if the following code is correct and why the flush is not working.

    /**
     * @param $idBusReservation
     * @return bool
     * @throws \Doctrine\ORM\NonUniqueResultException
     */
    public function transformBusReservationIntoBusTicket($idBusReservation): bool
    {   $result = "into the function";
        /** @var BusReservation $busReservation */
        $busReservation = $this->em->getRepository('MyBundle:BusReservation')->find($idBusReservation);
        if ($busReservation !== null) {
            /** @var BusReservationDetail $busReservationDetail */
            foreach ($busReservation->getBusReservationDetails() as $busReservationDetail) {

A: The answer is in your error message. You either have to add cascade={"persist"} to your entity annotation, or explicitly call persist. I don't believe you need em->merge() in this situation as you're never taking the entities out of context.
Where you have all your persist lines commented out, just try putting this in
$this->em->persist($busTicket);
$this->em->persist($busReservationDetail);
$this->em->persist($customInfo);

and if you're looping through a ton of entities, you could try adding the flush inside the loop at the end instead of a huge flush at the end.

In October of 2011 Hurricane Sandy pounded the East Coast and made landfall just north of Delaware in Southern New Jersey. Dewey Beach was inundated with flood water on the side of the streets, leaving just the tops of some mailboxes in view. Some bayside businesses were flooded, and the wind ripped some signs off of their poles. The town made oout well considering the damage that could have occured if the storm would have made landfall just aa little bit further south.
In 1962 there was a three-day Nor'easter that began on March 6th. For 60 hours the coast was hit with gale winds, high tides and a cold rain. In Dewey Beach, the Atlantic Ocean breached the dunes and over-ran the town. Because this storm system stalled directly off of Delaware's coast for three days and coincided with the highest monthly astronomical tides, the storm tides and storm surge caused extensive flooding and enabled 20 foot ocean waves to crash against homes and businesses. During the 1962 storm, entire sections of Dewey between the Atlantic Ocean and Rehoboth Bay were entirely under water, as tides in Rehoboth Bay also reached extreme heights.
Of the 19 worst recorded storms to hit the Delaware coast in the last century, seven of them occurred in the 1990's, and 80% of these coastal storms were nor'easters. This is also the decade in which more than half of the thirty highest tides since 1936 were recorded at Breakwater Harbor (Delaware Bay). On January 4,1992, the coast was hit by a Nor'easter that produced 9.02 foot tide, the second highest tide ever recorded in Delaware. In Dewey Beach, most of the dunes were washed away and there was severe flooding and property damage. Once again, the ocean met the bay. It happened again in 1998, when another Nor'easter on January 28th produced a tide of 8.95 feet. One week later, on February 5, 1998, another severe Nor'easter pounded Delaware's coast with tides of 8.76 feet. The cumulative effect of two severe northeast storms hitting the coast within one week was devastating to the beaches and dunes, resulting in flooding, overwash and property damage in Dewey Beach.
Our biggest concern today is the increase in population and building density. While we have better warning and communications, our roads are severely taxed and property damage has the potential to be extreme. All property owners and residents of Dewey Beach should be aware of the damage potential of coastal storms, and should take the necessary steps to minimize damage and to prepare and protect themselves and their property before the next coastal storm hits.


In 2014, I made pineapple paste from about 10-15 pineapples and the work was just tedious. The skinning, the grating, the boiling, cooking, storing just wears me out. But the end product when it is put on the tart and baked, is just perfect. And I will not buy anywhere else ever again. So every year, I will try my best to do some within my comfortable time. With the pineapple paste that I made in previous post, I started making the tarts, so as to prepare for the upcoming Chinese New Year.
The steps are not difficult nor confusing, but it requires a bit of taking in and out of the fridge as the butter melts pretty fast.
First, sift the plain flour, corn flour, salt and icing sugar together. Once that is done, use a fork and poke the cold block of butter and sink into the flour. Using another fork, scrap the butter with the pointed edge and coat it with the flour. Repeat till all scrapped butter is coated with the flour. If required, use your fingertips and continue rubbing the bigger pieces to break them down.
Then, beat together the egg yolks and vanilla extract. Add this to the butter-flour mixture. Using your finger tips, slowly bring all the crumbs together into one large dough. But do not knead. As long as the dough is formed, stop and put in the fridge for 10 mins, covering it with a piece of cloth so that it will not get too dry. The purpose of putting into the fridge is to let the dough settle and harden a little so that it is easier to handle later.
After 10 mins, bring a portion of the dough, keeping the remaining into the fridge to keep cool. Spread some plain flour unto the working table to ensure that the dough does not stick to the table. Roll out to about 7-8 mm thick, or your desired thickness. Spread more flour unto the rolled out dough to prevent the dough from sticking to the cutter. Using a cutter, cut out the dough and arrange them neatly on the baking tray, sprinkled with a bit of plain flour. Try to place them around 1.5cm apart. The dough can become buttery as you handle it, so be fast and use a portion at a time.
Once you have arranged them, glaze them with the egg yolk mixture. Roll the pineapple paste into balls. Place the pineapple paste balls unto the tart shells.
Once your oven is preheated to 160 deg C, bake the tarts for 13 mins, and then turn it the other side and bake for another 13 mins. Cool on a cooling rack before keeping them. As there are not preservatives in this recipe, try not to keep for too long.

MBR process challenges

Zhangjiagang to Use Koch Membrane Systems PURON® MBR Modules
Koch Membrane Systems GmbH (KMS) has been selected by Pacific Water Treatment Engineering Co., Ltd. to provide PURON® membrane modules for a new city wastewater treatment facility in Zhangjiagang, China. The system will help to meet stringent local discharge standards in Zhangjiagang, in Jiangsu province, about 150 km northwest of Shanghai.
Due to the facility's close proximity to residential areas, limited space, and high property costs, an MBR was the technology of choice for Zhangjiagang JinGang Sewage Treatment, a state-owned entity that operates all municipal wastewater treatment plants for this city.
'We selected PURON submerged MBR modules because of their energy efficient design, the smallest footprint requirements as well as KMS' engineering support during the entire project phase,' said George Shen, chairman of the board at Pacific Water Treatment Engineering Co., Ltd., a leading engineering company in China selected by the municipality to design and construct the MBR system. 'We are also impressed with the strong, braided fibre, which reduces the risk of fibre breakage.'
The system is designed to handle an annual average flow of 25,000 m3/d, with peaks of up to 36,000 m3/d. Start-up is scheduled for early 2012.
PURON PSH 1500 modules are specifically designed for large-scale MBR projects. Features such as an optimized permeate extraction manifold and air supply lines reduce the number of piping connections during installation. China's MBR market has been growing rapidly over the last five years with several installations larger than 10,000 m3/d. KMS has a large base of industrial hollow fibre references in China, ranging from surface water treatment to wastewater recovery in refineries and power plants. The Zhangjiagang City project will be the first large-scale municipal MBR reference for KMS in the country.

ANU Library Digitisation team
The Digitisation team, Stephanie Dangerfield and Erin Gallant, are undertaking a major project to digitise rare and special materials from the
ANU Library and Archives. The Digitisation Policy and Procedure sets our framework and guides the project. Many people across the Library and Archives contribute to providing open access to ANU collections.
Special titles
Victorian Tailoresses' Association records
Victorian Tailoresses' Association
This collection contains the membership register and Strike Attendance Book, 1883-1884 of the Tailoresses' Association of Melbourne. The Pressers' Union, which had formed in 1884, amalgamated with the Cutters' & Joiners' Union in 1902 to form the Victorian Clothing Operatives' Union.
The Tailoresses' Association of Melbourne, formed in 1880, was the first Australian trade union focussing on women workers. The Association first met in response to an attempt by manufacturers to reduce the piece-rate wages of garment makers many of whom worked at home. Workers went on strike in 1883 for better conditions which were eventually granted by employers. The strike is generally regarded as instrumental in the establishment of the Shops Commission and the eventual passage of the Factory Act 1885. In 1906, the Tailoresses' Union amalgamated with the Tailors' Society. The Association's first minute book is among Pre-Federation trade union minute books on the UNESCO Australian Memory of the World register.
As different elements of the trade were incorporated the name changed to the Federated Clothing & Allied Trades Union in 1922, the Amalgamated Clothing & Allied Trades Union in 1924 and the Clothing & Allied Trades Union of Australia in 1947. In 1992, another change of name was effected, this time to the Textile, Clothing & Footwear Union of Australia.
Westminster in Moresby: Papua New Guinea's House of Assembly 1964-1972
Johnson, L. W. (Leslie Wilson)
Digitisation of this title was requested by South Pacific subject specialists Kylie Moloney (ANU College of Asia and the Pacific) and Dr William Standish (ANU College of Asia and the Pacific). This title gives researchers on the areas of Pacific history and politics access from around the globe. It has been made available to a global audience through open access, and it has been downloaded over 60 times, which includes downloads by users in Papua New Guinea.
The South Pacific Nuclear Free Zone Treaty: a critical assessment
Michael Hamel-Green
Digitisation of this ANU publication was requested by international users and received full support of the author. The digitised publication has since been circulated to individuals in the field and has been downloaded 39 times by individuals residing all over the world including Israel, France and the USA.
In August 1985, eight South Pacific Forum states signed the Rarotonga Treaty, establishing a nuclear-free zone in the South Pacific region, including Australia, New Zealand and island states south of the equator.
Researchers needed access to Michael Hamel-Green's critical study assessing the limited and selective character of Rarotonga treaty, which prohibits nuclear testing and land based stationing of nuclear weapons but permits transit, mobile deployment and some forms of control. This publication examines the Australian Government's motivations in initiating and negotiating the measure. The study analyses both regional and nuclear weapon state responses to the treaty and concludes with a discussion of its security and disarmament implications.
Digitisation collection projects
Xu Dishan
The Xu Dishan (1893-1941) collection comprises many rare editions and suspected orphaned sacred books on Buddhism, Taoism and other Missionary publications of the time dating from 1860–1920. The collection forms the original core of the ANU Library's Asia-Pacific collection.
Some materials are in an extremely fragile condition due to the type of paper and printing methods used at the time of publication. It has been recommended by various experts in preservation and conservation that they be digitally preserved before further deterioration occurs. The Digitisation team has since digitised the fifty volumes identified as being the most in need of preservation. Digitisation of these volumes enables users to access materials which are too fragile to handle.
The 227 volumes digitised this year include the oldest item held at ANU Fo ding zun sheng tuo luo ni jing
ANU theses
The ANU Library's theses collection holds the research output of the University's academic community over the last 60 years. Most theses awarded in the 1950s have been digitised and made available online. The first ANU thesis was awarded in 1954.
The Digitisation team are digitising ANU PhD theses and making them available through the online Open Access Theses collection. So far, 2923 theses are available online – both new theses that are submitted digitally, and theses that are older and have been digitised.
By digitising the full ANU theses collection, the ANU Library will deliver the University's unique and original research in a freely available, open access collection. Digital delivery expands engagement with the Library's collections, provides visibility to the university's scholarship, and supports the careers of the academic community.
