Year in review 2012: Non-league football – Hyde FC rise as Stockport County fall
29 Dec 2012 - 04:50AM
By Matt Davies & John McDougall
It has been a highly eventful year for Manchester's teams across the football pyramid and none more so than at non-league level.
Promotions, cup runs and high scoring encounters have all been in abundance and several players have made a name for themselves.
Stockport County defender Joe Connor edged out Altrincham's prolific forward Damian Reeves to claim player of the season at the Northwest Football Awards.
Meanwhile Hyde's Scott Spencer and Phil Jevons – once of Everton – and Trafford's Michael Oates have all found rich veins of goal scoring form.
Stockport County began 2012 having not won a league game since the previous October, but edged out Barrow in a five-goal thriller on New Year's Day thanks to a late Sam Sheridan penalty.
It would however take County until the last weekend of the month before they could register another win in the Blue Square Bet Premier League, when they hosted Kidderminster Harriers.
Hyde meanwhile started the year in the Blue Square Bet North, and overcame Mancunian rivals Stalybridge Celtic at Ewen Fields.
The Tiger's form dipped in the rest of January, as they picked up just a further two points while Celtic picked up just one point in the month, drawing 5-5 with Hinckley United.
Droylsden defeated Altrincham and then Stalybridge to start the year before ending the month with a high-scoring draw against Eastwood Town.
Damian Reeves was in fine form for Alty, netting nine times in January, including four against Harrogate Town, as his side picked up ten points for the month.
FC United of Manchester began the New Year brightly with a 5-2 away victory over Bradford Park Avenue, but Ashton United lost 3-0 at home to Northwich Victoria.
In the Evo-stik Division One (North) Curzon Ashton went through January unbeaten in the league, defeating Wakefield and Garforth Town along the way.
Radcliffe Borough had an indifferent start to 2012, with victories over Woodley Sports, Ossett Albion and Skelmersdale United counterbalanced by defeats to AFC Fylde and Curzon Ashton.
Salford City had a January to forget after failing to register a league win, while Trafford made a brighter start to 2012, winning three out of four.
Ramsbottom United began the year in the North West Counties Football League Premier Division and won three out of four in January.
Mossley opened the New Year by appointing Steve Halford as player-manager, replacing Gareth McClelland who earlier resigned.
Danny Rowe was in fine form for County in February, netting three goals as the Hatter's picked up four points from three matches.
Hyde played just one league game in the month, demolishing Droylsden 4-0 at Ewen Fields.
Meanwhile the Bloods played just three times in February, due to a number of postponements, picking up four points in the process.
Altrincham also took four points from the month, enough to consolidate seventh position in the BSB North.
Stalybridge continued to struggle, failing to win in February in a run of nine league games without a win, picking up draws with Harrogate Town and Blythe Spartans.
Ashton United had three league wins out of three in February, beating Stafford Rangers, Chorley and Chasetown.
Curzon Ashton's unbeaten league start to 2012 came to an end after losing 3-1 to Witton Albion, while Radcliffe Borough ended the month with two successive defeats to Cammell Laird.
Salford City got their first league win of 2012 with a 2-0 victory over Wakefield, while Trafford experienced back-to-back defeats to Woodley Sports and Lancaster City.
Ramsbottom's charge for promotion hit a setback as they picked up only a point in February in the 2-2 draw with Bootle.
Mossley's winless league run in 2012 extended to seven games by the end of February.
Jim Gannon's Stockport had a mixed month, suffering heavy defeats to Alfreton Town and Southport, but won convincingly against Bath City.
The Hatters took nine points from six games while Hyde took 13 points from their fixtures, with Scott Spencer netting six times, including a hat-trick in his sides 5-0 win over Bishops Stortford.
The Bloods started the month with a 5-0 defeat to Stortford, but bounced back to finish the month unbeaten in five and scoring ten in the process.
Stalybridge beat Solihull Moors but back-to-back defeats against Altrincham and Boston United followed.
Celtic also recovered though, to end the month with two draws and two wins including a 4-1 demolition of Nuneaton Town.
Altrincham picked up 11 points in March, with Reeves adding a further five goals to his haul, including a double when the Robins visited Corby Town.
FC United's seven game unbeaten run came to an end after going down 1-0 away to Rushall Olympic, but ended the month with a 4-0 thrashing of Mickleover Sports.
Ashton United were beaten 4-0 away by Bradford Park Avenue, while Curzon Ashton lost only one of their eight league fixtures in March as their charge for promotion gained pace.
In a busy March, Radcliffe Borough took 15 points out of a possible 24, while Trafford, despite winning two of their first three games, lost their next five fixtures.
Ramsbottom won seven out of seven as they put their February hangover behind them to get their promotion bid back on track.
After an eight game winless run, Mossley won three games on the bounce to give them a much needed boost, while Trafford managed only one win in six March fixtures.
County started the month in style with a 4-0 win over Lincoln City, and also won the final two games of the season to ensure a 16th place finish to their first season in the BSB Premier.
Spencer scored five more for Hyde in April to finish the season with 32 goals, as Hyde took 13 points from their final five games, securing the BSB North league title.
The Tigers won 27 games and scored 90 goals, finishing on 90 points and five points clear of second placed Guiseley who were beaten by Nuneaton in the play-offs.
Stalybridge finished a point outside the play-offs, with three wins and three defeats in April, and ten points ahead of fellow Mancunian outfit Altrincham.
Alty won just once in April, an impressive 6-1 defeat of Eastwood Town, and Reeves kept up his goal scoring form, scoring four in the month to finish the season with 44 strikes in all competitions.
Droylsden finished the season one place and two points behind Alty, with the Bloods picking up nine points in April including a 5-5 draw with Histon.
FC United finished the season in sixth place, but gained a play-off place due to Cheshire club Northwich Victoria's relegation for losing control of their home ground, Victoria Park.
Ashton United meanwhile finished the Evo-stik Premier season in 12th place, ending it with a 3-0 defeat to relegated Mickleover Sports.
Curzon Ashton qualified for the Evo-stik Division One (North) play-offs after finishing second.
The Robins beat Garforth Town in the semi-final on penalties, before losing 3-0 in the final to Witton Albion.
Radcliffe Borough ended their campaign with a 4-1 victory over Trafford – finishing in 15th place – while Trafford finished just above neighbours Salford City in 12th.
Mossley rounded off their league campaign with a 6-1 win over Harrogate Railway Athletic – Ben Richardson scoring a hat-trick – to finish the season in 14th place.
Ramsbottom won their last five games to be crowned champions of the North West Counties Football League Premier Division and gain promotion to the Evo-stik Division One (North).
May saw the resignation of Hyde manager Gary Lowe and his assistant Martyn Booty, who were replaced by Scott McNiven and ex-Aston Villa and Bolton player Gavin McCann.
The pair rejected the proposed playing budget for the season and therefore left their positions while McNiven had previously been Hyde's caretaker manager in 2011.
Altrincham boss Lee Sinnott acted quickly to tie down Matt Flynn and midfielder Carl Rodgers ahead of the new season.
Meanwhile, Craig Hobson made the move from Stalybridge Celtic to Stockport.
It was heartbreak for FC United as they lost 1-0 to Bradfield Park Avenue in the penultimate minute of extra-time in the play-off final – their second successive play-off final defeat.
Despite finishing in mid-table, Ashton United did scoop the fair play award, giving manager Danny Johnson a five-year anniversary present.
Salford City meanwhile announced the appointment of Darren Sheridan as new first team manager.
Ex-Oldham forward Ryan Brooke made a move to Altrincham while Stockport snapped up goal-keeper Lewis King.
Midfielder Jerome Wright returned to FC United from Chester FC, as Red Rebels boss Karl Marginson looked to bounce back from their disappointing play-off final defeat.
As long serving midfielder Ian Bennett departed Ashton United, Robins old boy Billy McCartney returned to the club as a first team coach.
Radcliffe Borough re-signed former Manchester United trainee goalkeeper Nick Culkin, while Mossley disbanded both their reserve and youth teams due to economic circumstances.
Damian Reeves ended several months of speculation regarding his future by resigning for Altrincham in July, a major boost for the Robins.
Droylsden saw both Dan Gardner and Dale Johnson depart for Halifax while July also saw the Bloods set up a reserve side for the upcoming season.
The brother of Manchester United legend Ryan Giggs, Rhodri, returned to FC United on a free transfer from Salford City, as boss Karl Marginson strengthened his squad.
Mossley boss Steve Halford signed four players – goalkeeper Martin Pearson, central defenders Dave Young and Keil O'Brien and striker Gavin Salmon – to reinforce his squad.
Hyde were busy in the summer ahead of the current season, with new manager McNiven adding several players to the squad that achieved promotion from the BSB North.
The big-name signing came in the form of former Everton, Grimsby and Hull star Phil Jevons, a striker who has featured in all five divisions of the football league.
Defender Luke Ashworth made the step up to the Premier division having previously been without a club since leaving Halifax and midfielder Alex Brown joined the Tigers from Chester.
Hyde also signed winger Stefan Cox from Fleetwood Town, as well as a host of other players with football league experience ahead of their debut in the BSB Premier.
Altrincham's Scott Phelan departed Moss Lane for a coaching role at Everton just before the new season was due to commence.
Stockport began the season with two consecutive wins, but failed to record a win in the three games that followed.
Scott Spencer scored twice on the opening day for Hyde but they picked up just two points from their first five games as the Tiger's had a difficult start to life in the Premier division.
Altrincham went down heavily at home to Brackley and Chester in August winning just one of their opening four fixtures, although Reeves did net three times for Sinnott's side.
Stalybridge also struggled at the start of the new campaign, losing 4-1 to Workington in their first game before tasting their first victory after coming from two goals down in their fourth game against Colwyn Bay.
Droylsden lost 7-1 in their seasons' second fixture, before bouncing back to beat Vauxhall Motors 5-2, as the Bloods took four points from their opening four games.
FC United kicked off the new season with a 4-2 away victory over Grantham Town, following it up with a 4-0 thrashing of Matlock Town at Gigg Lane.
Ashton United began off their campaign by beating Worksop Town 5-3, ending August with 12 points out of 12 from their opening four fixtures.
Curzon Ashton got over their play-off final defeat by beating Garforth Town 6-0 in their second league fixture, while Radcliffe Borough kicked off their league season with two successive draws.
Ramsbottom United opened with a 3-3 draw with Cammell Laird, while Trafford star striker Michael Oates hit five past Ossett Albion in an 8-0 win.
Salford City were slow starters, drawing 1-1 with Curzon Ashton but Mossley hit the ground running, winning their first two league games against Bamber Bridge and Cammell Laird.
County had to wait until the last game of the month to taste victory, with Craig Hobson's double part of a 3-1 win Edgeley Park win against Ebbsfleet United.
Jim Gannon's side earned four draws but were on the wrong side of a seven goal thriller against Macclesfield.
Hyde suffered four defeats in September but Jevons scored his first goals for the Tigers with his hat-trick part of a 5-2 win against Hereford United.
Altrincham went unbeaten in the league throughout the month, winning three of five games and scoring 15 goals, ten via the prolific Reeves.
The Robins front-man netted all four as his side overcame Gainsborough Trinity and both goals in Alty's 2-2 draw with Oxford City.
Stalybridge started the month with a comfortable 4-0 win over Hinckley and beat a Manchester United XI in a friendly, but lost 6-2 to Chester at the end of the month.
Droylsden suffered four defeats on the bounce in September before picking up a 1-0 victory against Gloucester City courtesy of an Adam Evans strike.
FC United began their FA Cup campaign in style with a 5-0 battering of Cammell Laird, following it up with a 3-2 defeat of Salford City in the next round.
However, Ashton United's seven game unbeaten league run came to an abrupt halt after being routed 6-1 by Buxton.
Curzon Ashton had a month of cup action, bowing out of both the FA Cup and FA Trophy to Bradford Park Avenue and Worksop Town respectively.

Our Town's History, How Fenton Came to Be Fenton
Steve Sweitzer
Three men sat around the table lit only by a flickering candle. Glasses and a jug of whiskey adorned the table top, the three gents having indulged liberally. A 20-card deck of playing cards, scuffed and dog-eared sat in front of one of the men. What had been a high-stakes poker game among the threesome was winding down. When a proposal to change the betting currency from cash to personal pride reignited the passion of the players.
Lasco Press Photo
"Shuffle and deal 'em" came the command. Each of the three players picked up their cards and assessed the rank of their 5-card stud hand. The stakes of this game? Which man would lend his name to the city along the Shiawassee River, they held a share in building.
Benjamin Rockwell laid down his hand first, a pair of 10's. Robert LeRoy followed, showing three-of-a-kind, queens. LeRoy smiled at William Fenton who had set his cards face down on the table. LeRoy asked if Fenton was folding his hand to the three ladies. Fenton shrugged and began turning his cards over one-by-one. First, a king, followed by another king. Then an ace, that followed by another ace. Fenton stopped.
"Ha, gotcha" LeRoy shouted. Three of a kind beats two pair. Now it was Fenton's turn to smile as he reached down and flipped the final card. Another King, full house! Fenton's chuckle grew into a full roaring laugh as he raised his hands in triumph.
Unfortunately, there is no such detail to the legend that a game of poker determined Dibbleville be renamed Fenton instead of LeRoy. Some even dispute the legitimacy of the poker game story. But, what a fun bit of folklore to share with generations long after the town adopted its current moniker.
The Legend is visualized in the sculpture "The Game" by Artist Oleg Kedria sitting on the grounds of the Fenton Community and Cultural Center. The artwork was commissioned by Jocelyn & Phil Hagerman. It was gifted to the City by the Hagermans, to honor Fenton's history.
The story actually goes on to say the game continued with winners of individual hands naming streets. Main Street going to LeRoy, a residential thoroughfare to Rockwell. Elizabeth Street (later changed to Shiawassee) after LeRoy's wife. William Fenton's spouse was named Adelaide and Mrs. Rockwell's name Lavinia earned recognition.

The area along the river where a number of Indian trails converged originally was dubbed Dibbleville after Clark Dibble. In 1834 Dibble convinced a number of settlers to establish an outpost in the area where they constructed homes and a sawmill. In 1837 Robert LeRoy and William Fenton bought the sawmill and the surrounding land and began to develop a permanent community. Benjamin Rockwell joined the pair a short time latter purchasing the third interest in the development.
LeRoy constructed a hotel and served as the town's Postmaster. Besides being noted for winning the poker game Fenton gained true fame as the 7th Lieutenant Governor of Michigan from 1848–1852. The town was initially referred to as Fentonville, but was organized as The Township of Fenton on March 6, 1838.
The Railroad Comes and the City Thrives

Fenton was the northernmost point on The Detroit Grand Haven and Milwaukee Railroad in the 1850's. The significance of the railroad stop made the area an important trade center in Southeastern Michigan. The Fenton Railroad Depot was constructed in 1857. Unfortunately, the wooden edifice burned almost to the ground on March 19, 1923. The brick building that now stands on the site was constructed on the remnants of the buildings remains.
Following the installation of the rail line, Fenton was on its way to becoming the city we know and love today. For more on the history of Fenton visit the A.J. Phillips Fenton Museum and The Fenton Historical Society displays housed there.

You know a company plans to go big with a game when it starts the marketing for it almost a year in advance.
That's precisely what Xbox has done with Halo 5: Guardians, the latest in the 65 million unit-selling sci-fi super franchise.
In the UK, Xbox's Halo 5 push started with a multiplayer beta in January in which 20m matches were played. Since then, the firm has been running an ad campaign featuring the title. Farr says that over 80 per cent of UK gamers will have already seen the advertising.
Recently, Xbox ramped up its marketing push as the game approached its launch today (October 27th). And, clearly, fans are paying attention – the firm's most recent trailer has been watched by a huge 1.6m people on YouTube.
The aim of our marketing has been to ensure our campaign has been both engaging and accessible to the broadest audience possible – from the fans who have been playing Halo games since the start to newcomers who are starting their Halo story with Guardians," Farr says.
"This has been one of the most successful and exciting campaigns we have worked on to date."
One strand of the marketing push has been the 'Hunt the Truth' campaign, a series of audio logs which has seen a journalist from the world of Halo investigating series protagonist Master Chief.
Hunt the Truth has been very successful; it has been a great opportunity to engage gamers through many different touch points – both within and outside of the episodic series," Farr explains.
At Gamescom, Microsoft announced it was was making an even bigger push into the lucrative eSports market. The firm even promised a $1m prize pool for the first Halo World Championship.
This is the largest investment in multiplayer in the franchise's history, with skill-based classic modes designed for eSports and competitive gamers," Farr says.
Of course, this Christmas, Halo 5 faces a different kind of competition – the shooter genre. Ubisoft is launching Rainbow Six and Activision has Call of Duty, while EA is releasing Star Wars Battlefront. That last title is arguably Halo's biggest rival this Q4 in the sci-fi genre.
This Christmas has some fantastic releases for Xbox One and we are incredibly proud to have such an amazing variety of first and third-party titles for gamers to choose from," Farr says.
Battlefront is a great example of why there has never been a better time to upgrade to Xbox One.


Have used APH before and have always been delighted with the service and facilities - drivers and check-in staff always seem cheerful and helpful - this was the first time we had booked through APS and liked the ability to compare prices with different operators. We will continue to use APH/APS in the future.
We chose Gatwick APH partly on location but largely on price. We found them to be efficient and courteous, and we would use their service again. We also noted the frequency of the transport into the airport as a plus point.
The service was efficient, cheap and the staff were very helpful. The transport arrived qithin 10mins at gatwick which was excellent as we had arrived late in the night.
Good price, easy to find and quick distance from airport. Staff are friendly and efficient and regular coaches run which are clean.
Was quick and conveinient!!! Will not travel to airport by train in future! many thanks.
First class friendly & efficient service. Totally stress free start & end to the holiday.
Very good, all very easy and didn't have to wait long for the coach to be picked up, which is always good when you land and just want to get home. Will use again and recommend to others.
From start to finish we were treated efficiently and the whole experience was faultless. Superb value for money and as this was our second time of using the Gatwick APH, a consitently good service.
We were very pleased with the service on this occassion. The drop off and the pick up were both completed in a very timely manner. Could we add the the driver Keith was exceptionally cheerful and helpful!
The car park itself was fine, and easy to find. My only problem was that although arriving in good time, I managed to miss my National Express coach to take me to Stansted airport. This was due the driver waiting too long to leave the depot. When I checked in my key at the desk the lady said I would have plenty of time. However, although the buses are meant to leave every 15mins, I was waiting in a stationary bus for almost 30mins. This was because people kept arriving, and the driver just kept letting people on, as I think he felt uncomfortable turning them away, instead of sticking to the 15minute time-frame. It was very frustrating and annoying. I had to catch a later National Express bus, and was charged an admin fee, but luckily just managed to catch my flight. If you have a deadline to catch a bus from the airport, I recomend maybe an hour just in case.
Easy to book and very friendly service. Quick drop off and pick up.
I have only just bought a car and so this is the first time I have used an airport car park service but I couldn't fault this service at all. Very well organised and helpful and friendly staff. Thank-you.
I have used Gatwick APH many times and will use again. The site is esy to find, coaches are always quick, clean and comfortable and the prices are always very competitive (usually the cheapest of all the Gatwick off-site parking providers).
I found string or rope coming out of my exhaust pipe, it may have been pushed into the exhaust deliberately. I think this car park is expensive considering its distance from the airport. 'Money for Old Rope!
Excellent service - quick and efficient - just the job.
No problems whatsoever. I've used APH in the past and will continue to do so. Excellent value for money too.
Fantastic,all staff very profesional,good location and for the price was not really what i expected,will be using them in the future and so will family and friends.top service.
Exlellent service, easy to find the site, good service, very quick and efficient; only comment.... if allowed I would reccommend fixing a small sign 'APH Coach stops here' at the number 12 bus as some passenegers were confused. but i found the whole service worked well.
Speedy, efficient and friendly. Couldn't be improved ! Only problem we had was having to drive on tyhe M25.
No problems - great service.

I am wondering if they might do a storyline similar to TLOZ and Zelda II, as that would be the most 'open' as far as plotting goes, and they'l have a lot more room to do stuff they want.
And finally another person who doesn't think the cartoon is the worst thing ever!
Masked Bastard
formerly Captain B
Almost every mention I see of Zelda nowadays refers to Ocarina of Time or something made after that. Back in the early 2000's this was alarming as most people apparently didn't even realize the series started on the NES.
I guess mostly I'd just like to see a TV series avoid rehashing (or just mashing together) Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess, or the like. Do something totally new.

New, but add references, or characters from a previous title, but we don't know what their taking as source material, and how they're going to apply it.

Rowan Blanchard Address – You Didn't Know This
The Plot of Snowpiercer Rowan Blanchard Address
The train is divided into classes, where the lower class lives in squalor while the upper class takes pleasure in the best life has to use. When Curtis, a member of the lower class, learns of a plot to topple the elite and take control of the train for themselves, he should decide whether or not to sign up with in.
Jennifer Connelly and Daveed Diggs star together with Mickey Sumner, Alison Wright, Iddo Goldberg, Susan Park, Katie McGuinness, Sam Otto, Sheila Vand, Mike O'Malley, Annalise Basso, Jaylin Fletcher, Lena Hall and Roberto Urbina. Steven Ogg, Rowan Blanchard, and Sean Bean joined the main cast in the second season and both Chelsea Harris and Archie Panjabi signed up with the primary cast in the 3rd season.
Rowan Blanchard is a young actress who is quickly rising to fame. She is best understood for her function as Riley Matthews on the Disney Channel show Lady Satisfies World. Rowan has been applauded for her acting abilities and her capability to influence other girls. She is also associated with social activism and speaks out about essential concerns like feminism and racial diversity. The first season of the show was launched on Netflix on May 26, 2015. It was produced by ABC Studios and stars Rowan Blanchard, Ben Savage, Sabrina Carpenter, Vincent Martella, Peyton Meyer and Mitchell Hope.
Jennifer Connelly is an Academy Acclaimed starlet who began her profession as a teenager in modeling and commercials. She made her movie debut in 1984's "Maze" and continued to work gradually in films throughout the '90s and '80s. Connelly amassed crucial honor for her efficiencies in "A Gorgeous Mind" (2001 ), for which she won an Oscar, and "Requiem for a Dream" (2000 ).

Q: Firebase transaction getChildrenCount() "cached"? I use a firebase transaction and I need to get the number of children in my node. Here is my code :
mynoderef = mFirebaseDatabase.getReference().child("mynode");
                    mynoderef.keepSynced(true);

                mynoderef.runTransaction(new Transaction.Handler() {
                    @Override
                    public Transaction.Result doTransaction(MutableData mutableData) {
                        Log.d("fumee", "fumee5 = " + mutableData.getChildrenCount());

                        for (final MutableData postSnapshot : mutableData.getChildren()) {...

My issue is that I can see in my log that the number I get from mutableData.getChildrenCount() is not always correct.
It seems to come from cache because when it is wrong it gives me the number from the previous "load". I guess my issue is very similar to this one.
setPersistenceEnabled is true in my app and I want to keep it.
Do you see how to resolve my issue?
Thank you,
Alex

Between 1945 and 1955, an estimated 67,770 children were born to soldiers of the occupying forces and German women in the Federal Republic of Germany. Of these children, 4,776 children were the children of African American and Moroccan soldiers. The fate of this generation of Afro-German children (or "brown babies" as they were called in the U.S.) was the focus of public interest both in West Germany and the U.S.
During the 1940s and 50s, popular and scholarly publications in both countries printed detailed reports on these "brown babies" ("Mischlingskinder") who were the subject of intense political and pedagogical debates and controversies. Indeed, both state institutions and private organizations in Germany and in the U.S. devoted considerable time and effort to planning out their lives. What underlay the public debate on the fate of Afro-German children both in postwar Germany and the U.S. was a very specific construction of their heritage—one that defined them as essentially "fremd" (both in the sense of "strange" and "Other" and, at the same time, "foreign" or "alien"), "not belonging and at risk in Germany." Their German nationality and their socialization in the country of their birth were, thus, only of secondary interest. In other words, their national and cultural heritage were regarded as contrasting directly with their race. Consequently, an ambivalent and contradictory attitude developed toward them both in hypothetical discussions and in the concrete actions taken in their name. The debate around these Afro-German children reveals a paradoxical and shifting dynamic of caretaking and marginalization, inclusion and exclusion. Complete Article & Photo Gallery here….


I'd have some trouble returning to a doctor who offered that advice. Yet it's status quo in the USA. We've just found out that Bloomberg's much-vaunted test gains are smoke and mirrors, which many of us have been saying for years.
Still, if you look at the Daily News, Bloomberg's illusory gains don't even merit a mention. The important thing, according to their omniscient editorial writers, is we've raised the charter cap. Who cares if charters don't represent any improvement over charter schools in our idiotic quest to make test scores the sole factor in whether or not schools succeed? Who cares if their rates dropped even more than those of public schools?
What's crucial now, according to the News, is that we keep moving in the same direction that's gotten us nowhere. In fact, we need to follow in the footsteps of Michelle Rhee, who's also produced no improvements, and start firing more teachers. Yeah, that's the ticket. Let's continue moving forward with this Race to the Top. Even the UFT President supports it, so what's to question?
There are a few things, actually. As Reality-Based Educator pointed out in chapter and verse yesterday, the same geniuses at the Daily News couldn't get enough of Bloomberg's phony test scores, and ridiculed those who questioned them. These same folks now are not humbled in the least by their utter failure to see the obvious.
And they're just as wrong now as they were then, says Aaron Pallas.
...Washington, D.C. and New York City have failed to disclose the technical materials that describe the strengths and weaknesses of their chosen value-added technology.
There's no polite way to say this: The procedures described in the DCPS IMPACT Guidebook for producing a value-added score are idiotic. These procedures warrant this harsh characterization because they make a preposterous assumption based on a misunderstanding of the properties of the DC Comprehensive Assessment System (DC CAS).
Stupid in, stupid out is one thing. But stupid administrators whose policies result in hundreds of fired teachers is another thing entirely. That's where we're headed in NY too, with the recent deal between UFT President Michael Mulgrew and the state to bring value-added here. This will be piloted in 11 "turnaround schools" in NYC, then brought everywhere. Teachers branded ineffective two years in a row, based on student test scores, will be fired within 60 days.
Once that happens, the Daily News will praise the process. When kids inevitably fail to benefit from it, they'll cry we didn't fire enough unionized teachers. Will union presidents be rushing to Washington to hasten the process?
One would hope not. The role of union leaders is to help working teachers. Helping teachers, in fact, would help kids, parents and communities as well.
Maybe it's time union leaders, like all Americans, began looking to sources other than Daily News editorials for information.


In total, approximately 2,000 buildings in Santa Monica have been identified to fall within the scope of the City's comprehensive seismic retrofit plan, including approximately 1,700 soft-story buildings. The inventory of wood-frame soft-story buildings has been made public by the Santa Monica Planning and Community Development Department.
Implementation of the Santa Monica wood-frame soft-story ordinance will be carried out in phases. The timeline for compliance for each unique structure begins following distribution of the Order from the Building Official. Orders will be issued according to priority levels determined by the number of residential units in each soft-story building. The noticing schedule is available here (updated August 2017).

The National History Center held a Congressional briefing on U.S.-China relations on Monday, March 27, at 10 a.m. in the Cannon House Office Building, Room 122, Washington, DC.
You can read Dane Kennedy's recap of the briefing "US-China Diplomacy: Historical Perspectives on Challenges Confronting the People's Republic," on AHA Today.
When President Donald Trump hosts President Xi Jinping at his Florida resort next month, the two leaders are sure to address tensions between the United States and China over issues such as trade, North Korea, the One China policy, and China's military buildup in the South China Sea. This is a timely occasion to consider the historical roots of these tensions and reflect more broadly on what the past can tell us about the likely outcome of the upcoming talks. This briefing by two of the leading American historians of China is intended to provide the context needed to make sense of current US-China relations.

Q: How to access a file browser opened by a WebBrowser control? I am writing a C# WinForms application that fills a form automatically on an existing website.
Let's consider http://tinypic.com/ as an example to illustrate my problem.
When the user clicks the Browse button, a file browser dialog opens as a modal dialog. In my case, the modal window is opened from code and I own the form and the WebBrowser control.
How can I access this modal window programmatically and paste/enter my filename into it ?

A: I don't know particularly, but I do believe its possible (even if you have to hook the OS)
You might want to check TwebstLib for such functionality

Interview with Charles Connolly
Hello everyone, today I have an interview with Charles Connolly, a really unique musician and producer. Charles Connolly is someone who's been making music for a while but has only recently been releasing his music. I was lucky enough to have Charles answer some questions about his music for After Midnight. I will leave links to his music and social media profiles at the end of this post. It would be really great if you guys could give it a listen.
How would you describe your musical style to the readers?
It's a funny one and a surprisingly difficult question, because each song I make is entirely different. In general, I would say it is a sound that feels natural, fond, familiar and classic, yet is utterly new and fresh, blending more traditional instruments (even some classical) with modern synths and beats.
I think musically, I write with surprise - I don't like to be too predictable. I will never write a song that has 3 repeated chords from beginning to end. I think (rather annoyingly) Dua Lipa got there first with the term Future Nostalgia - Although I would say her sound is more Simply Nostalgia, with modern production techniques. Melody and originality are key in my songs, and I would say these two things are exactly what is lacking in a lot of modern music. And also the courage to be bold, brave and courageous in doing something a bit different.
But there is nothing weird or freaky about my sound - very accessible to almost anyone! As to genres though - I dot around everywhere, for I have absorbed so much music of all styles through the years of my life.
Who are your biggest influences musically?
Too many to mention - how predictable. As I have said, The Beatles started it all off - how predictable. I used to be very much into the 60s/70s bands, and the 90s bands (like watered down 60s bands, but not my dad's era), and Coldplay, Beck, Bjork, to name but a few. But in the last ten years I have been much more into the electronic side of things within the realm of pop.
My favourite electronic pop people of late would probably be Disclosure and Madeon - where art goes electronic. I have a huge soft spot for Brian Eno's ambient work. But the list truly goes on and on. Miles Davis, Queens of the Stone Age, Mark Ronson, Sinatra, Tame Impala, Karl Jenkins, Debussy...
You have only recently decided to release your music publicly, was there any reason for this at all?
I have been making music for many years and it has pretty much all never set foot outside my four walls. Even to friends. Around six years ago I made an album that I thought I could try to put to the world, but I never really knew how. I was spotted by a couple of music people from L.A. and it seemed like things were moving forward. I had everything set for a proper album launch (a different album) and at the last minute everything fell through. I was so disheartened by this that I completely disappeared from the public eye entirely. Until relatively recently I still had all my web-pages saying "debut album coming soon" with all the old photos and a couple of teaser tracks. I was devastated in a silent way. But I never stopped making music throughout the years, and it kept getting better and better. I finally decided this year to take a huge breath of air and go for it, properly. I decided to start with a few new songs I had written this year, and the reception seems to be great! The good thing is, I have a lot of fully recorded songs that maybe just need a tweak in the mix, and I can eventually release most of them! But I have ideas for new songs on a daily basis - I feel I have barely scratched the surface of what I am capable of making.
I find it really interesting how you blend genres in your songs, was this a conscious decision or does this come naturally to you?
It has never been that conscious. I am just aware that songs in general can get dull, despite them only a few minutes long. I never start the process by thinking "I'm going to mix rock with house with hip-hop and throw in a bit of soul"! I think it is just part of songwriting and production in my mind. I hear it all fully produced before I start recording - then I copy what's in my head. I am not really conscious of any 'process' at all. It just happens. I suppose I just think "would I like to listen to this?", and if the answer is yes, then I continue.
You describe your song Never Said Goodbye as 'crooked and unique' which is not something I've heard before but I feel really fits the song. Where did you find the inspiration for this song?
I wrote and recorded the music for this in about an hour or two, one afternoon in February, the day my girlfriend was going back to her hometown of Warsaw in Poland - me being in London. We have an unusual relationship where we see each other about half the year round but basically live in different countries. The song is not about myself and her though - our love is solid and very stable. I suppose I felt weird and disjointed when I wrote it - this comes through in the whole sound of it, I think. It feels dodgy and devious; conniving, almost. I wanted to write something that was both modern and my more mature style, all built into one. I put on a funny scrawny voice for the lead vocal - almost like a black Fagin. For the chorus I decided it had to be a girl singing, so I sang it in a weird way, messed around with it a bit, and made myself sound realistically like a girl. It is sort of a battle of not understanding, between a man and a woman in a toxic relationship.
Another thing I find really interesting and unique about your music is how you use the voice like an instrument and create different layers in your songs using this. I think that it's something clever and fresh to hear, how did this idea come about?
Did I? I wasn't even aware of that. Thank you! I do however think the voice is the greatest instrument in the world - like a limitless organic synthesiser. I love and enjoy sound. I seem to have an unusually versatile voice and so can quite easily change my voice to suit/fit the song. My older songs used to be so chock full of beefy harmonies, but these days I tend to use the voice in a different way - I have pared down a bit this year and have gone more for tone rather than wall of sound. But having said that, I do like a fat sound to overtake the ears. Melody is king for me, which is why the voice should shine and be the star of the show. But I do like the music to have a major part too in the whole piece. Again though, I never really consciously think about any of this - I just copy what is in my head at the time. It feels like cheating! I like to have original fun with my music, which thankfully comes rather naturally to me.
And lastly, what can we expect to hear from you next?
Not sure for definite, but I think a ballad is coming next. If so, it is called To See My Lover Again. Expect coldness followed by warmth and lushness - starkness before the strings sweep you off your feet.
Thank you so much to Charles Connolly for taking the time to answer these questions for After Midnight, it is very much appreciated. Please give the music a listen, it's definitely something exciting that I think is really well worth a listen.

Wallingford police make 5th arrest in drug investigation
Sep. 16, 2015 Updated: July 24, 2017 7:18 p.m.

WALLINGFORD >> Police made their fifth arrest Monday as part of a drug investigation that dates back to March.
On Monday, Corey Farmer, 24, turned himself in at the Wallingford Police Department and was charged with illegal transfer of a firearm, criminal possession of a firearm, sale of marijuana, and possession of over 4 ounces of marijuana.
Farmer's arrest stems from March 18 when the Wallingford police detective and narcotic divisions executed a search and seizure warrant at 380 Main St., Unit 49.
Investigators seized more than two pounds of marijuana and a semi-automatic handgun and arrested residents David Jordan, 25, and Dante Guiliano, 26, on drug charges, according to a press release.
During a subsequent interview with Guiliano, he claimed to be holding the handgun for his marijuana dealer, Farmer, of 36 Ledgeland Court in Mystic, police say. Guiliano told police that Farmer provided him with the two pounds of marijuana. Farmer is a felon with a previous conviction for possession of over 4 ounces of marijuana, according to police. That charge stemmed from a 2011 case in Groton, the release says.
The handgun recovered in Wallingford is a Colt Mustang .380 caliber. It was found to be registered to 50-year-old Jeffrey Kosky of 55 River Lane in Deep River. Kosky was interviewed and allegedly told police he sold the Colt handgun to a person later identified as Thomas Russo, 26. Russo is a convicted felon and has multiple pending cases, police say.
On June 3, Kosky turned himself in at the Wallingford Police Department and was charged with illegal transfer of a firearm. He was released on $50,000 bond and his case is pending in Meriden Superior Court.
On June 16, Russo was brought to Meriden Superior Court by the Department of Correction because he is being held at the Northern Correctional Facility on unrelated charges. Russo was processed at court and charged with illegal transfer of a firearm and criminal possession of a firearm.
Farmer was released on a $50,000 bond and is scheduled to appear at Meriden Superior Court on Sept. 25.
