Council opts to oppose Boris Flyover and save Waddon Hotel
Posted on December 14, 2015 by insidecroydon
Croydon Council's cabinet will tonight give Jo Negrini, the executive director in charge of planning and development, and transport spokeswoman, Kathy Bee, the task of taking on Transport for London to deliver a new road system around the Purley Way by Waddon Station by opposing the Boris Flyover which City Hall and Croydon Tories want to bulldoze through.
And Negrini and Bee are also to work to save an historic local pub.
Fiveways on the Purley Way: £87m of new roads may not solve the congestion problems
The decision, recommended in a 24-page report going to tonight's cabinet meeting, represents a roads U-turn by Councillor Bee, who originally appeared to favour the Boris Flyover. It is also a minor victory for the local Waddon councillors who have lobbied on behalf of residents against road schemes for the A232 which would threaten dozens of homes, businesses, and also eat into public parkland.
The proposals, as first revealed by Inside Croydon a year ago and put forward by TfL earlier this year, were always a bit of a "pig in a poke": the Tories at City Hall want traffic to get into central Croydon – that is, to the Hammersfield supermall – from south-west London and Surrey more speedily. Despite £87 million of public money being allocated, the options offered by TfL were solely road schemes, without any real options for better public transport links to Sutton and Wimbledon.
Speaking at last week's council meeting, Councillor Bee, Labour's cabinet member for transport, responded to a public question by stating that Croydon Council's aim is, "To encourage people out of their cars."
Tonight's discussion in the A23 Purley Way junction with the A232 is separate from TfL's somewhat belated thoughts on the Fiveways junction itself, and their new proposals for a diversion of Denning Avenue. Or what is now known as the Fourways scheme. It may seem odd that such a substantial re-routing of a road into a major junction can be proposed nearly a year after another scheme for a nearby stretch of road was put out for consultation, and that all such proposals are not considered together in their totality.
In a statement issued by Croydon Council on the A232/Purley Way proposals, they said, "The council has set out its preferred solution for tackling congestion at Fiveways, which would avoid building a flyover, minimise the impact on neighbouring residents, and save Duppas Hill Park…
"The council's cabinet is set to accept a recommendation to widen the existing bridge carrying the A23 Purley Way over the railway, and also widen Epsom Road to accommodate two-way traffic.
"The alternative proposal would be to build a new flyover from Croydon Road to Duppas Hill Road to carry the A232, which would have a negative visual impact on a larger number of homes. It would also mean losing a significant amount of Duppas Hill Park – the equivalent of one-and-a-half football pitches, and 30 mature trees.
The Waddon Hotel: the council wants to save historic pub from TfL's road scheme
"In addition the council will be asking TfL to ensure that the Waddon Hotel, an important local building, is retained."
And in its report, Croydon Council states that it is, at last, working to put people before cars.
The council report submitted to the cabinet meeting states: "Waddon as a place is rather defined by the A23/A232 Fiveways junction, the intersection sending a strong message about the nature of the 'place'. Connecting the A232 Croydon Road to the A232 Duppas Hill by a new elevated highway structure is likely to strengthen that current message/impression including one of an importance attached to vehicle 'movement' over (figuratively and literally) 'place'. Whilst requiring widening of Epsom Road, Proposal 2 provides more of an opportunity to integrate improved vehicle 'movement' infrastructure into the existing 'place' rather than imposing a new elevated structure on that place."
For the full report submitted to cabinet tonight, click here.
"We feel that the recommendation we have put forward would have less of an impact on those living in the immediate area," Bee said. "The alternative option of building a new flyover would have a negative visual impact on a larger number of homes, and would also mean losing part of Duppas Hill Park."
Kathy Bee: has come round to protecting residents' interests
All that said, Croydon is simply responding to the TfL's Hobson's Choice: there's no real choice at all.
"It is all predicated on the idea that it's personal vehicles or nothing else," Benjamin Welby, one concerned local resident who has looked into the proposals carefully, told Inside Croydon.
Welby regrets that the council's latest report is only now making publicly available information which would have been very useful when considering the TfL consultation.
"The cost:benefit analysis on casualties and on journey times (assuming it's an accurate model) are the sorts of figures that would have allowed for an informed debate when the consultation was first mooted," Welby said.
"There are still a lot of unknowns, about where exactly the proposed route for the flyover is (the Freedom of Information response I eventually got from TfL redacted that) and what that will look… If I were an impartial decision maker I think I'd be left with questions as to why Option 2 was being recommended rather than Option 1."
According to Bee last week: "While Option 2 is not predicted to perform quite as well as Option 1 in traffic terms, we believe it to be the better one for Waddon and its environment."

4 Responses to Council opts to oppose Boris Flyover and save Waddon Hotel
David Hamilton says:
One and a half football pitches is nothing. Who would miss it? Theres still plenty remaining for what is a barely used bit a park land.
For the benefit it would bring and the improvement of the roads in and out of Croydon its a price very well worth paying…and its a cheap price at that. I just do not get why people are complaining.
insidecroydon says:
The football pitch analogy is a poor one, possibly dreamt up from someone in the press office fresh from journalism school who thinks you meed to patronise your readership.
A more realistic stat is that the road-builders would take up 8 per cent of the park, as well as destroy 30 mature trees.
How does Mr UKIP feel about giving up nearly one-tenth of his garden for someone else to use as a car park?
Eight per cent will affect no one. Its no one garden its a communal bit of land. So to use the "garden" analogy is daft. Seriously how on earth could it cause anyone a problem?
So UKIP's official position on parks is to build over them, regardless of what the community wants. Noted. Thanks.

Hollywood sign changed to 'Rams House' after Super Bowl victory
By Reuters | Feb. 17, 2022 | 2 min read
The Los Angeles landmark Hollywood sign was temporarily altered to read "Rams House" on Wednesday in celebration of the hometown team's victory in Sunday's Super Bowl.
Crews had been working since Monday to cover the 50-foot-high (15.2-m) white letters sitting atop the city's Mount Lee, where a version of the iconic sign overlooking Southern California's film-and-television hub was first erected in 1923.
By early Wednesday the new phrase could be seen for miles around, but not everyone thought the alteration worked.
"I think they haven't done the best job," said Los Angeles resident Suzanne Pye.
"A couple of years ago, when they legalized marijuana here, two people snuck up in the middle of the night and changed it to Hollyweed," Pye said, referring to an incident in 2017. "And honestly, they did it in the middle of the night in a misty, dark time. They did more in two hours than these guys have done in three days. But it's fun."
Melissa Quintero, 33, visiting from Miami, said she had wanted to see the Hollywood sign, but she would come back.
"I came looking for the Hollywood sign, but it's not there right now, I guess, because there's a parade happening today," she said. "It's great, I mean, that they won the Super Bowl. ... It's pretty out here."
The Los Angeles Rams rallied late to beat the Cincinnati Bengals 23-20 on Sunday to deliver a Hollywood ending to the Super Bowl, securing the franchise's first championship since returning to the West Coast six years ago.

Florida, Miami reportedly agree to home-and-home series in 2024-25
Image Credit: ESPN Images
For those excited to get a taste of the old Florida Gators vs. Miami Hurricanes rivalry on Saturday, Aug. 24, you will not have to wait too long to see another showdown between the two in-state rivals. Florida and Miami have reportedly agreed to a home-and-home series over the 2024-25 seasons, according to Brett McMurphy of Stadium.
The Gators will host the Hurricanes in 2024 with Florida traveling to Miami in 2025. This will be the first time the programs play a home-and-home series in consecutive years since 2002-03.
In addition to a two-for-one series UF has coming up with South Florida (2021-22, 2025), it has recently announced home-and-homes with Colorado (2028-29) and Texas (2030-31). Florida also has its annual rivalry game with Florida State scheduled every season.
Scheduling nonconference opponents is especially difficult for the Gators because the team gives up a home game every other year to play the Florida-Georgia neutral-site game in Jacksonville, Florida.
UF and UM used to play annually but have not done so since 1987, the last time they played a non-bowl game at a neutral site. The Gators and Canes will square off for the seventh time over the last 18 years next Saturday, their fifth regular-season meeting in that span. Miami is 29-26 all-time against Florida, but the Canes have won seven of the last eight meetings dating back to 1986.

        if ((vNumberSTD(vCounter)) = '1') then

           vNumberINT := (vNumberINT+(2**vCounter));
        elsif ((vNumberSTD(vCounter)) = '0') then
            vNumberINT := vNumberINT;

end function con_integer14;

Please help me, thank you :)

A: I'd go a step further and tell you your function never returns a value.  I took the liberty of removing the superfluous parentheses and then took a look at the function's structure.
You're going to execute the first if statement and fail to return a value - there is no return statement in reach.
Add a test bench:
library ieee;
use ieee.std_logic_1164.all;
use work.foo.all;

entity fum is
end entity;

architecture fie of fum is
    signal vNumberINT:  integer range 0 to 16384;
    signal vNumberSTD: std_logic_vector(14 downto 0) := "011001110111100";
begin
CALL:
    process
    begin
        wait for 1 ns;
        vNumberINT <= con_integer14(VNumberSTD);
        wait for 1 ns;
        wait;
    end process;
end architecture;

Analyze it, elaborate it and run it:

ghdl -a something.vhdl
  david_koontz@Macbook: ghdl -e fum
  david_koontz@Macbook: ghdl -r fum
  ./fum:error: missing return in
  function at something.vhdl:10
  ./fum:error: simulation failed
  ghdl: compilation error

And we get it to tell us there's a missing return for the first if statement, that a call to it won't return a value.
To make a conversion routine that converts your std_logic_vector to integer you should use a loop statement with an iteration scheme based on the index range of the input vNumberSTD.
When the loop statement is done 'calculating' vNumberINT return VNumberINT.
Note that if you don't do anything specific about meta values for elements of vNumberSTD they will be treated as '0'.
And with some modifications:
library ieee;
use ieee.std_logic_1164.all;

package foo is
     function con_integer14 (vNumberSTD: std_logic_vector(14 downto 0)) return integer;
     function conv_slv_int (input:  std_logic_vector) return natural;
end package;

package body foo is

    function con_integer14 (vNumberSTD : std_logic_vector(14 downto 0)) return integer is

        --        vNumberINT := vNumberINT + 2 ** vCounter;
        --     elsif vNumberSTD(vCounter) = '0' then
        --         vNumberINT := vNumberINT;
        --     end if;
        --     vCounter := vCounter + 1;
        -- elsif vCounter >= 1 or vCounter < 14  then

        --     end if;
        --     vCounter := vCounter + 1;
        -- elsif vCounter = 15 then
        --     return vNumberINT;
        --     vCounter := 0;
        -- elsif vCounter > 15 then
        --     vNumberINT := 0;
        --     vCounter   := 0;
        -- end if;
        for i in vNumberSTD'range loop
            report "vNumberSTD(" & integer'image(i) & ") = " & std_ulogic'image(vNumberSTD(i));
            if vNumberSTD(i) = '1' then
                vNumberINT := vNumberINT + 2 ** i;
                report "vNumberINT = " & integer'image(vNumberINT);
            end if;
        end loop;
        return vNumberINT;
    end function con_integer14;

    function conv_slv_int (input:  std_logic_vector) return natural is
        alias inp: std_logic_vector (input'LENGTH - 1 downto 0) is input;
        variable int_equiv: natural range 0 to 2 ** input'LENGTH - 1  := 0;
        begin
            if Is_X(input) then  -- announce meta values - interpreted as '0's
                report "conv_slv_int input contains meta value";
            end if;
            for i in inp'RANGE loop
                if To_bit(inp(i)) = '1' then -- convert 'H' to '1', 'L' to '0'
                    int_equiv := int_equiv + 2 ** i;
                end if;
            end loop;
            return int_equiv;
        end function;
end package body;

library ieee;
use ieee.std_logic_1164.all;

architecture fie of fum is
    signal vNumberINT:  integer range 0 to 32767;

CALL:

        report "conv_slv_int returns " & integer'image(conv_slv_int(vNumberSTD));
        wait;
    end process;
end architecture;

Notice I corrected the range of vNumberINT, it can be based on the argument to function con_integer14.
You can remove the report statements in the function.  I used them to illustrate the function loop.
I added a second function showing conversion of any length std_logic_vector that will fit in a natural range.  It will generate an error when called  (function local variables elaborated) if the length of the input won't fit in an integer.
The second function also detects meta value inputs and converts 'H' to '1' and 'L' to '0' for each element of the input.
The use of the alias inp for he input allows us to always deal with the input as natural range, caring about length instead of left and right bounds.
When running the new test bench:

something.vhdl:45:13:@1ns:(report note): vNumberSTD(14) = 'H'
  something.vhdl:45:13:@1ns:(report note): vNumberSTD(13) = 'X'
  something.vhdl:45:13:@1ns:(report note): vNumberSTD(12) = '1'
  something.vhdl:48:17:@1ns:(report note): vNumberINT = 4096
  something.vhdl:45:13:@1ns:(report note): vNumberSTD(11) = '0'
  something.vhdl:45:13:@1ns:(report note): vNumberSTD(10) = '0'
  something.vhdl:45:13:@1ns:(report note): vNumberSTD(9) = '1'

  something.vhdl:48:17:@1ns:(report note): vNumberINT = 4992

  something.vhdl:48:17:@1ns:(report note): vNumberINT = 5024
  something.vhdl:45:13:@1ns:(report note): vNumberSTD(4) = '1'
  something.vhdl:48:17:@1ns:(report note): vNumberINT = 5040
  something.vhdl:45:13:@1ns:(report note): vNumberSTD(3) = '1'
  something.vhdl:48:17:@1ns:(report note): vNumberINT = 5048
  something.vhdl:45:13:@1ns:(report note): vNumberSTD(2) = '1'
  something.vhdl:48:17:@1ns:(report note): vNumberINT = 5052
  something.vhdl:45:13:@1ns:(report note): vNumberSTD(1) = '0'
  something.vhdl:45:13:@1ns:(report note): vNumberSTD(0) = '0'
  something.vhdl:87:9:@2ns:(report note): vNumberINT = 5052
  something.vhdl:59:17:@2ns:(report note): conv_slv_int input contains meta value
  something.vhdl:88:9:@2ns:(report note): conv_slv_int returns 21436

We see that you can pass std_logic_vector to both that only conv_slt_int will interpret correctly.

A: Save yourself some time and use the built-in functions.  If you just use numeric_std, then you can do the following:
library IEEE ;
use IEEE.numeric_std.all ;
...
signal Y_int : integer ;
signal A_slv15 : std_logic_vector(14 downto 0) ;
...
Y_int <= to_integer( unsigned( A_slv15) ) ;

If you also include numeric_std_unsigned (warning this is VHDL-2008 and may not yet be supported by your tools - try it and report a bug if it does not work) -
library IEEE ;
use IEEE.numeric_std.all ;
use IEEE.numeric_std_unsigned.all ;
...
signal Y_int : integer ;
signal A_slv15 : std_logic_vector(14 downto 0) ;
...
Y_int <= to_integer( A_slv15)  ;

A: Like what has already been mentioned, you did not cover all possible conditions. It's always good to have a default assignment, either by having an "else" clause, or have a default before the if-elsif statement:
function con_integer14 (...) return integer is
begin
    vNumberINT := -1;
    if (vCounter = 0) then ...
    elsif ...
    elsif ... then return vNumberINT;
    end if;

    return vNumberINT;
end function con_integer14;

or alternatively,
function con_integer14 (...) return integer is
begin
    if (vCounter = 0) then ...
    elsif ...
    elsif ... then return vNumberINT;
    else
        return vNumberINT;
    end if;
end function con_integer14;

I personally prefer the first option, because some tools still complain that not all paths are covered for the second option, though in fact all paths were covered. Anyway, this is just a matter of style.
It seems to me that you are only returning a value when vCounter=15:
elsif (vCounter = 15) then return vNumberINT; ...

and this condition is not always met by your testbench (perhaps never met as analysed by David).

Mexican Festivals and Celebrations
Though members of the Ruiz family have long called California home, Mexico remains the centerpiece of the family's heritage. From authentic Mexican spices to hand-rolling burritos, Ruiz Foods honors the traditions and customs of a culture that celebrates family and a joy for living. But you don't have to be of Mexican descent to share in the fun.
Cinco de Mayo (translated "May 5th") is a Mexican holiday that seems to increase in popularity each year in the United States. In fact, today, Cinco de Mayo is celebrated even more enthusiastically throughout the United States than it is throughout Mexico. It has become a celebration of independence, liberty and freedom – ideas which unite the people of both countries. But do you know about the actual event that Cinco de Mayo commemorates?
You, like many others, might think that Cinco de Mayo is a Mexican holiday celebrating the Country's independence from Spain. But it isn't. Mexico declared its independence from Spain in September of 1810. Cinco de Mayo actually celebrates a different victory of independence, a very proud moment in Mexican history that happened more than 50 years later … on May 5, 1862.
Learn the true history behind your Cinco de Mayo party.
El Grito de Independencia (Independence Day)
Every 16th of September, Mexicans celebrate Mexico's independence from Spanish rule. The date actually marks the start of the Independence War, which lasted for 10 y'ears. In the early hours of September 16, 1810, Father Hidalgo and a group of conspirators rang the bell of his small church and called everyone to fight for liberty. Today, the story is re-enacted in every zocalo, or plaza, in Mexico. Flags wave from every structure. Lighted decorations are put up, and people of all ages join in Mexico's biggest fiesta.
Los Dias de Los Muertos (Days of the Dead)
Los Dias de los Muertos means Day of the Dead, but it is really a Mexican celebration of both life and death. Held on November 1st and 2nd, celebrants honor the spirit of family ancestors. Spirits of children are thought to return on the 1st and adults on the 2nd. Altars are built, and then covered with food and decorations. Cemeteries are decorated with fresh flowers. Paper mache sculptures depict the dead in an everyday context, such as skeletons, and most are comical in nature. Through music and feasting, everyone embraces the totality of both life and death. It is a time of celebration.
Learn how to host a Day of the Dead party.
Las Posadas and Christmas in Mexico
Las Posadas begins on the 16th of December and continues for the next nine nights. Through candlelight processions and festive parties, participants remember the long journey undertaken by Joseph and Mary, and their search for lodging in Bethlehem. In fact, "posada" means "shelter". A woman and man portraying Mary and Joseph lead the procession, followed by children in the roles of angels, The Three Kings, and shepherds. Others carry candles, paper lanterns and banners as they proceed from house to house in search of a place to stay. At each residence along the procession route they are refused shelter, until at last, they are welcomed in at the last home. Then, a grand party with food for all is held.

Roller mills are mills that use cylindrical rollers, either in opposing pairs or against flat plates, to crush or grind various materials, such as grain, ore, gravel, plastic, and others. Roller grain mills are an alternative to traditional millstone arrangements in gristmills. Roller mills for rock complement other types of mills, such as ball mills and hammermills, in such industries as the mining and processing of ore and construction aggregate; cement milling; and recycling.

Types
Two-roller mills
Two-roller mills are the simplest variety, in which the material is crushed between two rollers before it continues on to its final destination.  The spacing between these two rollers can be adjusted by the operator.  Thinner spacing usually leads to that material being crushed into smaller pieces.

Four-roller mills
Four-roller mills have two sets of rollers.  When using a four-roller mill to mill grain, the grain first goes through rollers with a rather wide gap, which separates the seed from the husk without much damage to the husk, but leaves large grits.  Flour is sieved out of the cracked grain, and then the coarse grist and husks are sent through the second set of rollers, which further crush the grist without damaging the crusts.  Similarly, there are three-roller mills, in which one of the rollers is used twice.

Five- and six-roller mills
Six-roller mills have three sets of rollers. When using this type of mill on grain, the first set of rollers crush the whole kernel, and its output is divided three ways: Flour immediately is sent out the mill, grits without a husk proceed to the last roller, and husk, possibly still containing parts of the seed, go to the second set of rollers.  From the second roller flour is directly output, as are husks and any possible seed still in them, and the husk-free grits are channeled into the last roller.  Five-roller mills are six-roller mills in which one of the rollers performs double duty.

Gristmill conversion
In the 19th century roller mills were adapted to grist mills before replacing them. The mill used either steel or porcelain rollers. Between the years 1865 and 1872, the Hungarian milling industry upgraded and expanded the use of stone mills combined with roller mills in a process known as Hungarian high milling. Hungarian hard wheat so milled was claimed as integral to the "First in the world" success of the Vienna Bakery of the 1867 Paris Exposition.

Other applications
Specialized for the high production of superfine pyrophyllite powder making in glass fiber industry
Specialized for the high production of gangue powder making in coal industry
Specialized for the high production of various of chemical raw material powder making in the chemical industry.

Working principle
A motor or other prime mover drives the hanger of the grinding roller to rotate through a V pulley and center bearing. The roller, which is hung by a bearing and pendulum shaft, will roll along the inner circle of the roll ring while the hanger is rotating. A dust removal blower will generate negative pressure at the inlet and outlet of the grinder to prevent dust and radiating the heat in the machine.

History
Modern era roller mills were re-invented by the Hungarian engineer András Mechwart in 1874, then quickly spread to other parts of Europe and Americas.

Heads I Win, Tails You Lose: The Big Short
01/11/2016 01:41 pm ET Updated Jan 09, 2017
Fresh from watching the Big Short in a crowded theater in Philly, I wanted to shout out my experiences from that time, using excerpts from my book: "Making Money Matter... Impact Investing to Change the World."
"In early 2006, most of the Legg Mason advisors were invited to a big hotel and feted by Citigroup, one of the last occasions Sandy Weil held forth as chairman of what was then the largest corporation in the world in terms of "impact" (not necessarily "positive impact"). I excitedly assumed I could use these resources to expand the universe of investments available to my clients at Legg Mason. In fact, the opposite was true.
Tight, bureaucratic, and impersonal, the conference turned my stomach when the speaker leaned out like a snake oil salesman and said, "You are going to make so much money on mortgages!" He offered $2,000 for each mortgage application turned in--even if the mortgage was not realized. Jaws dropped, and brokers grinned. Something was amiss. They just wanted paper. Little did I know! The company needed "paper," even worthless paper, to justify the debt on its balance sheets. This was the beginning of what might have been the end of big banks.
Six months later, on top of the unethical mortgage push, I noticed that interest rates on cash in my clients' portfolios differed for no apparent reason. Clients with higher fees earned higher interest rates. Older folks, whose fees were minimal, lost yield in their cash. I was mortified and decided to get out when the Wall Street Journal praised Citi for following Merrill Lynch's business model of manipulating interest rates to improve the bottom line. How could I submit clients to this amoral manipulation? Little did I know I was jumping from the frying pan into the fire. I took a big risk by leaving the comfort of a big corporation, and I still had a great deal to learn."
At the start of 2007 an independent advisor invited me into his secretly debt-ridden lair to continue a habit of "borrowing" from clients. He enabled me to build impact investment funds as long as I did not get involved with the debt fund we created or the finances of the firm. I naively accepted, working in the dark with absolute trust in my new boss. Explaining what I had seen at Citi with the worthless mortgage applications, we prepared the clients for a down turn and entered 2008 60% in cash which meant that we lost only 5% in the meltdown of 2008 described in the movie. Then the auditors moved in and ultimately the founder of the firm was caught and the firm was shut down. Here is more from the book:
"The financial industry is full of such stories. I imagine when a person gets in too deep in debt to see a way out, they may become numb and drift into a kind of mindless state of denial, seeing no harm in taking more and more until being caught or filing for bankruptcy. The phrase "drowning in debt" has taken on a new meaning for me. My earliest childhood memory is of drowning after I plunged off a diving board into the dark pool of the Brook, a swimming hole on our Connecticut farm. I remember blissfully staring up at the sun from the bottom, and peacefully watching my bubbles floating to the surface before my eight-year-old cousin rudely tackled me, dragged my three-year-old body onto the bank, and roughly pumped me out.
"In this case, those who were exposed to the malfeasance also experienced the rude awakening along with the debtor. In reaction to the harm done to me and to my clients, I experienced all the stages of grief: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. In 2012, I took charge, along with a newly configured team of workers dedicated to fixing what we could and saving the best investments. Our goal was to prove that, over time, all clients, disgruntled or not, would realize that working with us had become beneficial.
"A wise mentor once told me that life will never throw you anything you can't handle: the challenges of life would not be there but for your capacity to overcome them. The most difficult professional challenge I have had to endure was facing my shortcomings and the anger of friends. I chose to make amends by building the best team I could possibly lead."
The Big Short brought that transition period from the big banks vividly back for me. It is a gripping reality drama and yet I fear that investors and advisors may experience it only as a story, a virtual reality, especially as the market recovered and the banks were not transformed. In fact the "too big to fail" banks are 80% larger.
At the end of the movie a stunned audience was silent for a moment and an old man cried out "Bernie Sanders in 2016!" True enough, he may be the only candidate to call for serious financial systems change. But the status quo is strong. I imagine another Bush/Clinton battle is already arranged.

'''The Coffin Dancer''' is the titular antagonist in the second novel of the ''Lincoln Rhyme'' series by Jeffrey Deaver, ''The Coffin Dancer''. ==Role in the book== The Coffin Dancer is one of Lincoln Rhyme's greatest adversaries. He is a cunning assassin and has evaded the police for years. Lincoln helps out with the case when the Dancer is hired to take out 3 witnesses to an upcoming trial. ==Identity== Throughout most of the book, the Dancer is falsely thought to be [[Stephen Kall]]. However, the Dancer is actually a homeless man named Jodie, who had subcontracted the job to Stephen and won his trust round. Knowing that he would have to kill at least one of the targets, "Jodie" took on the identity of a homeless man to get close to Stephen and to become a witness for the case, knowing he will be put into protection with the victims until the trial. Once gaining the trust of the police, Jodie kills Stephen and dumps him in a park, removing his head and hands to prevent identification. Near the climax, Lincoln manages to deduce that Jodie is the Dancer after identifying the body as Stephen. Amelia Sachs manages to defeat Jodie before he can get his target. Jodie attempts to make a deal with a lawyer to have Lincoln arrested and jailed for incompetence, with the promise of testifying against his client. However Lincoln saw through Jodie's plans, knowing he wanted Rhyme in jail just to kill him, and will be able to return back to work. This attempt failed, and the Dancer was locked up. The Dancer's name isn't actually "Jodie". During his persona as a homeless man, the Dancer picked the name as he felt it made him less threatening. ==Trivia== *The antagonist known as the "Ghost" in the 4th Rhyme novel ''The Stone Monkey'' uses a similar tactic like the Dancer by posing as a potential victim in order to win the trust of the police and be able to try and get close to his targets without suspicion.

Discussion in 'Adapted Lenses' started by Roger.Cavanagh, Mar 4, 2013.
My first post here, so hello everyone.
EF 135mm f/2 L: this is my favourite Canon lens. It has fantastic image quality. It's not too heavy to put on the front of the M5. If I understand correctly, the lens would only work at f/2 and with MF, but walking around the IBIS would work. Nonethless I'm thinking the number of keepers would be badly affected. Also since the lens would only give an effective 270mm focal length, I could get the Oly or Pannie zooms. Optically, these, I'm sure, are much inferior, but in practice the results might make this a sensible option.
EF 300mm f/4 L: obviously for only tripod use; so the M5 IBIS of no value. The effective 600mm FL sounds attractive, but with MF only how realistic a proposition is getting a decent proportion of focus hits?
I'd appreciate any comments to help me make a decision.
Also as a final question: I have noticed people including their gear in their signature. Is this accepted practice for this forum?
Sell the EF gear and replace it with FD mount. The FD 300mm f4L seems to be a great piece of glass. I'm not sure if there is a manual focus 135 f2, but there are certainly excellent fast 135mm legacies. Or get the 35-100 panasonic and the 300. I think the sell of your 2 EF lenses would cover that ( $1500 ). There's a thread on the Tokina 300mm 2.8 around here, but that might be a little large.
The 135L can fetch enough money to get an Olympus 75mm 1.8. In fact, I've got an O75 for sale, and would consider getting a 135L, lol. If you were in the states, I might consider a trade!
The 300L reach could be replaced by the Panasonic 100-300, though the L will likely deliver better results on your Canon DSLR than the 100-300 will deliver on your OMD. As mentioned, there may be some legacy 300s that would be a good buy, and you'd pocket some cash, as long as you are OK with MF.
If you love your 135mm, Olympus 75 would give you very similar fov provided that you used it on full frame.
I dont think ypu will have any problems using the 300mm F4 free hand, i´m using my FD 300mm on my OMD alot, and on my GH1 before that, without IBIS.
@juangrande: FD is a good idea. I never owned any Canon SLR gear that was not EF; so that never occurred to me. I am watching eBay for options. There was a 300/2.8 on offer. It might have been a little OTT; luckily it's gone, so the decision has been taken away from me. Found a very modestly-priced FD 135/2.8 that I can play with in the mean time -- ordered an adapter from Kiwi Photo on Amazon.
@WT21 and thomastaesu: I'm ahead of you on the O75. ?Got one last year in Hong Kong, when they were rarer than hen's teeth in the UK. Terrific lens!
@GRID: you must drink at lot less than me! ? But I fancy that a monopod might work, if a decent 300/4 comes up.
Thanks again, all your comments have helped a lot. I see that, at least, two of you have the P100-300. So I think I might use some of my sale revenue on that anyway. Even if I can find an FD 300, it's not something I'll carry when travelling abroad.
300s are no problem to hand held- I do it regularly - IS does help.. The MF (FD?) Canon 135 f2 is a gem - there is an image thread for it in this group.
Heli-mech was selling an FD Canon 135mm/2 on this forum a very short while back, and for a reasonable price.


Both LickOchops and SuprOmega are essential fatty acid supplements. An Essential Fatty Acid is a fatty acid your pet requires but does not produce in his own body, so it must be provided through his diet.
LickOchops contains both Omega 3 and Omega 6 essential fatty acids plus natural Vitamin E. It contains chicken fat which is a wonderful, highly usable source of Omega 6 fatty acid. It also contains Menhaden cold water, cold pressed fish oil, a wonderful, highly usable source of Omega 3 fatty acid. It contains natural Vitamin E which is great for skin and coat support and serves as a natural preservative.
SuprOmega contains Omega 3 essential fatty acid plus natural vitamin E. It contains Menhaden cold water, cold pressed fish oil, a high quality source of Omega 3 fatty acid. It contains natural Vitamin E which is great for skin and coat support and as a natural preservative.
Either of these can be used with your dog or cat. Both are excellent supplements. If your pet is finicky, LickOchops may be a good choice for him. If your pet is itchy, SuprOmega may be a good choice for him.
You do not need to use both of these with your pet. Choose one and feed it to your pet at 1-2 teaspoons per cup of food.

Ki can also be defined as "attention" or "mind." While the concept of "extending ki" is vitally important in Aikido, what it actually is that you are extending is not so important. A strong case can be made for "it doesn't matter" if the end result is the same, if the final results are real. Beginners commonly have difficulty with this concept. I, like many others, wasted at least six months debating whether what I was seeing was "real" or "not real." Experience won.
To some, the challenge of believing in the existence of ki is the challenge of believing in the existence of the spirit, the reality of things unseen1.
If the idea of extending a beam of energy from your fingers out to the edge of the cosmos violates your sense of reality, then think of it as "attention" or "mind" and use this concept as a working hypothesis, a tool, as did Einstein riding his hypothetical beam of light. If this were true, what would you see? What would happen?
If you send your mind to the core of the earth so that anyone trying to move you must move the planet, are you really physically attached to millions of tons of rock?
Perhaps this is why the man known as Yeshua, or Jesus, chose for his disciples sailors, men who could see tfie wind.

Ripon vs. Leodiensian
Leodiensian
Sat 9 Mar TBC - Northern Division - Yorkshire Division Two Full time
1st XV Match Report - Saturday 9th March
By Becky Naylor
MATCH REPORT by BOB CHAMPION
On another of those "Mad March Days" weather-wise and with numerous distractions, including International Rugby on TV in the warmth of the clubhouse and a concurrent Second XV game, what played out on the pitch was observed by many of the faithful that makes Ripon such a strong community spirited club. Possibly with equal numbers watching both games on adjacent pitches, plus a few "swing voters", the weekend's playing entertainment attracted as good as, if not more than any other Saturday this season. Many thanks go to those that braved the elements to watch grass roots Rugby on the pitches.
The point of that, is that we welcomed also the "Guard of Honour" opportunity taken up by this season's Under 7 Squad and the associated well-wishers, to show that Ripon remains firmly ensconced in the principles of Community Rugby; which include developing one's own talent and making the training and playing experience as good as possible, so as to retain the talent that we have nurtured. Hopefully the Under 7 Squad and their supporters relished the experience of the walk on and photo session, sufficiently to come back next year and the next…
Looking at the 1st XV Squad that gained a resounding victory away at Roundhegians the previous week, it was going to be so difficult to select a squad that would do something similar to second placed Leodiensians. With returnees from injury and unavailability, this week's selection ask was squarely about fielding the most in-form squad that could be capable of getting a win against high flying opposition.
The back line saw a significant shake up in the recall of a Centre pairing of youth and experience, with Spilman and Newby taking the jerseys. No need to debate which was which and Ben Buckley returned to the squad on the Wing to replace unavailable Ollie Williams. The fourth Half Back pairing of Whitaker and Mainey, whilst both diminutive, showed that size doesn't matter in many respects. With Mainey looking to snipe, chip, pass or run, he showed maturity beyond his years and ability to match at 9. Patrick "Bob" Whitaker, just did what he does best at 10. Strong in the tackle, dumping opponents of all shapes and sizes unceremoniously on the ground; accurate in his passing, but perhaps less effective in the kicking game, which in the weather conditions, was a challenge.
The forwards saw some changes with former Skipper Newcombe recalled from the bench to start at Loose Head and mobile front row partner Jamie Slator returning from a week off at Tight Head. The second row saw the injured Alex Oliver replaced by Colt Will Pritchard and the back row remained the same as selected last week.
The replacements bench was ably occupied by Sadler, Greenwood and Callum Findlay. Nobody likes to be on the bench and nobody likes to be replaced during a game. This is however, how we play the game and as long as the squad of eighteen selected players get appropriate pitch time, all should be happy in the contribution that they make.
There was a game – it was cold, cloudy with expectations of blinding sunshine at some point; a strong end-to-end wind and a quite wet pitch. With Ripon's selections determined and the opposition being who they were, this was always going to be a battle of wills and who wanted to win more. What followed after the first kick off actually, was a matter of whichever team could keep their cool, take scoring opportunities as they arose and keep their discipline, might win. What was proved at restarts, was that despite less than optimal kicks from Ripon, the opposition showed a slight chink in their armour to deal with unexpected errors.
Discipline was poor on both sides. Initially with Ripon going down with over twice as many penalties conceded as the opposition, yet emerging from the first half in the lead. Leos, did the same in the second half and whilst Ripon's response to the low number of visitor's indiscretions led to a two penalty goal advantage; Leos punished the Blues emphatically with a four try to nil, bonus point winning performance, three of the tries being converted.
From Ripon's perspective, the set piece generally worked well, though the scrum, struggled somewhat in the first half. The line out produced quality ball from Taylor, Smith and Pritchard and many positive attacking moves were initiated by Spilman and Newby and carried on by Graham and Leeming. Leos had obviously done their homework on Leeming's counter attacking ability and rarely presented him with an opportunity to show his pace and strength.
The first half of the game involved a lot of posturing, enticement at some points, but sheer bludgeoning at other times. The half time score of 6 – 3 through two Whitaker penalty goals to one, said it all about the intensity of the game.
The second half is one that will be best pushed into the annals of history. Ripon never honestly looked like scoring a try throughout the whole game, less so in the second half. Leos however, pressed, punished and just simply imposed themselves on the game that made it very difficult for Ripon to respond.
Turning around at 6 – 3, Ripon thought they were in with a chance. However, despite a well-functioning scrum and line out, as well as big breaks by the likes of Graham and a shocking penalty account against the visitors; it seemed like every home transgression was punished with a try. And so it followed that Leos won the second half 0 – 26 with four tries and three conversions, to no reply.
Leos were no extraordinary team by any means – many of the players were well known over many seasons. On this occasion, the opposition just had what it took to gain a creditable bonus point win, away from home and have posed the Blues some serious questions about what will it take for Ripon to remain in Yorkshire Division Two and how much are the players committed to securing that.
This coming weekend Ripon 1st XV takes another break to regroup and find their best form. The next league action for the Blues will be the away trip to Barnsley on 23rd March. With the opposition sitting one point behind and currently in the relegation zone, this will undoubtedly be a massive game for both teams and sporting spectacle or not; this will be a coach trip to remember, so all travelling support will be very welcome. For those not on the bus, be at Shaw Lane for the 3.00pm kick off.

Bradley Cooper Wants To Reunite With Lady Gaga For Live 'A Star Is Born' Performance
in: Celebrity, Entertainment
Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga's steamy performance of "Shallow" from "A Star is Born" at the 2019 Academy Awards will forever be remembered as one of Oscar night's most memorable (and meme-able) moments.
Since then, fans have been rallying for the two stars to team up onstage once more, and though their pleas have thus far been fruitless, Cooper does have a reunion of sorts in mind.
In a Thursday appearance on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," Cooper ruled out the possibility of joining Lady Gaga on a concert tour but suggested that a one-night-only celebration of "A Star is Born" could be in order.
"What I thought would be a cool thing to do, maybe one night, is do a live reading of the movie, of the script, and sing all the songs as you're reading the script, like at the Hollywood Bowl or something," he said. "That would be cool, right?"
Such events have, in recent years, become a boon for venues like the Hollywood Bowl. Next month, Disney will stage "The Little Mermaid — An Immersive Live-to-Film Concert Experience," starring Lea Michele and Harvey Fierstein, in honor of the 30th anniversary of the animated film.
So yes, Bradley ― that would be very, very cool for "A Star is Born" fans.
Later in the interview, Cooper talked about how becoming a first-time father to daughter Lea De Seine, 2, has changed his perspective on life.
"It allowed me to embrace my childlike self without any sort of fear of judgment," he said. "I could just play with toys all day long … or watch cartoons endlessly and not feel like I'm wasting my life."
"The innocence is beautiful to see," he added.
