What to look for when accepting an apartment in a new building, how to prepare and protect your interests? Experts of the real estate market and construction specialists advise not to lose sight of anything: starting with the verification of information in the contract with the technical characteristics of the finished premises and ending with checking the quality of materials, works and the quality of their performance. And always defend their rights.
can be rented Apartments in new houses are rented both without finishing, and with draft, and finishing (turnkey repair) Since there are buyers for each of these options for availability of premises.
Unfortunately, there are still no uniform requirements for each of the types of finishes. For example, declaring the delivery of apartments with a rough finish, the developer may have in mind the "bare", but smooth (plastered) walls and nothing more. Another is to take care of the installation of doors, wiring engineering networks. Of course, there is a minimum list of works, prescribed in regulatory documents, but everything else is at the discretion of the developer and at the request of the customer (prescribed in the agreement between the parties).
Letting residential premises to new owners without finishing means that the construction company has done only wall-building, facade cladding, and no internal work has been done. Electrical wiring, installation of plumbing fixtures, final finishing were not carried out. Taking such an apartment, real estate investors will see walls of brick, panels or reinforced concrete (depending on the type of building), without any coating. The same applies to interfloor partitions (ceiling and floor). Space for connecting water supply, wiring. As a rule, installed meters, radiators, fire protection system, double-glazed windows on the windows and metal entrance doors. And in some, on the contrary, even interior partitions are not provided.
Draft ("pre-finishing") finishing - an intermediate option, within which the minimum work on the preparation of the room: the intermediate layers before the final finishing walls, partitions (plaster, screed, waterproofing in bathrooms; without it, fungus and mold will quickly appear in rooms with high humidity). Sometimes the list of works includes plumbing and electrical wiring (but without installing plumbing).
plaster and whitewash on the ceiling, either stretched or HL ceilings.
Since the surfaces are covered with the final layer of finishing, sockets, and, preferably, interior doors, and plumbing should be installed in such an apartment. If the project did not include interior partitions, when ordering the finish from the developer, they will be built and decorated.
How to take an apartment in such conditions, when there are no clear requirements for the condition of the premises, and developers on their sites offer "comfortable housing", not always prescribing the degree of readiness of the premises? Before you decide on the acceptance of the apartment, you need to carefully examine the documentation (project declaration and equity agreement), the project site, explore the demo apartment. Then the acceptance will not be a complete disappointment.
After you receive an invitation from the developer for acceptance, you should take care of collecting the necessary documents.
You must arrive at the site with a passport and an equity agreement. If the equity holder cannot come himself, then he has the right to grant the right to represent his interests to another person (in this case, one must also present a notarized power of attorney).
It is also worth preparing an apartment plan from the developer and a plan from BTI in order to compare the declared characteristics of the room with the actual ones. It is necessary to request from the developer and the "act of hidden works", which reflects information about the laying of communications, so you know where they pass (the pipeline to the radiator can be hidden under the floor screed, electrical wiring under the suspended ceiling or in the partition).
The developer should take care of the possibility of drawing up a so-called defective act (or a viewing sheet - an annex to the transfer act). This document is drawn up at the time of acceptance in the event that the real estate investor has identified violations (significant or not). In order to avoid misunderstanding, defects should be described in as much detail as possible. Also it is necessary to indicate in it the terms for elimination of significant defects (if any).After drawing up and signing the defect act, each of the parties must receive a copy (the signature of the representative of the developer must be present on your copy).
Then an act of acceptance and transfer of the apartment. It provides the developer. Mandatory information in it - mailing address indicating the apartment number, size of rooms and cost. The document after signing remains with the shareholder, with it the apartment buyer will be able to register the property rights.
the shareholder puts his signature if he agrees to accept the dwelling in the form in which it is. If there were significant violations in which it is not possible to live in an apartment, the act is not worth signing. For example, malfunctioning of the sewage system, holes in the wall, broken entrance door.
Demands should be corrected within a reasonable time (for example, two weeks, but the maximum time limit is 45 days by law). The developer may, instead of eliminating the irregularities, offer compensation to the interest holder. Only after the parties reach an agreement will it be possible to accept an apartment. Otherwise, all existing and not eliminated defects by the developer will have to be eliminated by the shareholder at his own expense.
If there are insignificant violations, the act is signed, but in its appendix "Inspection Sheet" all defects and dates to which these defects should be eliminated are indicated. If you refuse to sign the act in case of insignificant violations, the developer has the right two months later to sign a unilateral act, according to which the apartment will become your responsibility.
In case of successful signing of the acceptance certificate, the owner can independently obtain an extract from the USRN and conclude an agreement with the management company with it.
Do not sign the act until you have examined all the rooms. The developer may offer to sign all documents without inspection, in order "not to delay the process." You should not agree to such a proposal. If you sign, the developer will avoid responsibility for all shortcomings left after construction. Their elimination will fall on your shoulders and can "fly into a pretty penny."
Apartment acceptance is a very exciting and responsible process. Of course, the long-awaited housing you want to get as quickly as possible, but remember that it is equally important to get a quality home in which you can actually live. During acceptance, you can identify violations and request their elimination. But for this you need to properly prepare.
Prepare a list of what should be checked (quality of work, finishing, construction defects, serviceability of engineering networks), so as not to forget anything.
To check, you will need: a smartphone and charging to it, a flashlight, matches, a light bulb, a tape measure, a level. The charger is useful for checking outlets, a flashlight for dark corners in the bathroom, matches will help to check the hood, and a light bulb - the operability of lighting devices. It is also useful to have a pen to record the violations found (and if the developer does not provide a viewing sheet, you will also need paper). And remember, you have the right to fix bugs with a photo or video.
Make an appointment with a representative of the developer only during the daytime. At dusk it is difficult to notice even the most obvious marriage.
And last but not least, the preparation is the attitude. Tune in to be extremely attentive. Begin to show the wonders of observation from the moment you enter the staircase (if here, in a prominent place, the developer allowed the marriage, then "surprises" may await you in the apartment. And get ready to defend your rights, if you are not satisfied with the quality of the rented room, reflect this in the viewing sheet, describing the violations.
A number of different residential properties are represented on the primary market. Every year the offers of developers sound more attractive. But in fact, apartments do not always correspond to the promises.
How to take an apartment in a new building without finishing at the developer? What moments are unacceptable, because of which you can refuse to sign on the act of acceptance and transmission? In such an apartment, it is necessary to check quite a few - the walls, the ceiling and the floor for compliance with building codes.
We check the walls for uniformity of composition, leaktightness of the joints, as well as how aligned the corners and the surface itself is.
Examine walls for foreign inclusions, such as debris. Sometimes steel pins or wires stick from the walls, which are used to build walls.In general, they should not be, but later, when plastering walls, all the excess can be cut off (if left, the metal can rust, orange dots appear on the surface).
Make sure that there are no large gaps that are visible in the light. Such gaps in the joints between the seams of panels or blocks can be considered a gross violation of modern construction standards. What kind of comfortable operation can we talk about in such a room? And it's not just about drafts, ice and high heating costs. But also about security requirements. Masonry brick or blocks must be of high quality: smooth rows, identical seams, well-sealed, without the influx of mortar and voids.
3. Alignment of the surface, perpendicularity of angles, deviation from the vertical.
Check how flat the wall surface is. Only insignificant deviations of the plane are allowed - 1 cm, over a length of 3 meters in height or length.
Significant vertical deviations are noticeable to the "naked eye", but testing can be done using the building level. The air bubble inside the measuring tool should be in the center, which means that the wall is flat. Allowed deviation from the vertical not exceeding 2 cm to the height of the floor.
With a tape measure, you can compare the width of the opposite walls or the length of the visual diagonal line to make sure that the walls are perpendicular.
4. Dark spots and traces of moisture penetration.
If you see wet stains on the walls on a wet day, there is reason to doubt the quality of the facade cladding. Responsible developers are trying to use quality materials that are not exposed to weather conditions. Because they know that poor-quality exterior finish will lead to the appearance of mold and dampness, which in turn "tarnishes" the reputation of the developer. But, before you make hasty conclusions, make sure that the cause of the wetted walls is precisely the poor-quality exterior cladding, and not a simple leakage or condensate due to the glass unit adjacent to the wall.
If the acceptance takes place in winter, you can easily notice the main sign of poor insulation of the walls - dark spots appear in the corners or even bloom (the wall freezes through).
Ideally, the ceiling and floor should be uniform in composition, without dents and grooves, cracks and voids, floor slabs should be laid at the same level (seen at the joints). It is also worth measuring with a tape measure the height from the floor to the ceiling in order to compare with the developer stated in the project documentation.
Inspect floor slabs for serious cracks (over 2 mm). A fine mesh of cracks is permissible - this is the result of shrinkage after concreting. But the cracks rolling on the walls are a serious cause for alarm.
A serious disadvantage is the dried-up parts of the formwork that the builders had to remove.
Also a significant drawback is the exposure of the armature, as well as a large number of sinks in ceilings 5 mm deep and more.
Floor screed is not easy to make. If all the necessary steps are observed (including measurements of the construction level), the result will only please. Any floor coverings will easily fall on a flat surface. Otherwise, you will encounter inconveniences that darken our living in a new apartment: rolling down the sloping balls, wobbling table, one leg of which does not reach the floor, because it is not level, etc.
Check the tie for uniformity composition, uniform color and lack of voids. Tap the layer, the sound of the blows should be ringing, but firm. Bubbles in the screed, bumps or, conversely, layer destruction and crumbling testify to the poor quality of work.
This should look like a well-made floor screed.
Accepting an apartment in a new building with finishing in many cases ends with disputes and dissatisfaction of co-investors. Since there are many moments where builders may be mistaken or not guess the desires of customers. How and what to check in an apartment with decoration?
Plastering walls, floor screed - these are complex and responsible processes. Inexperienced brigades and those who start these types of work for the first time do not cope with the task. The result is uneven surfaces and sometimes so uneven that no wallpaper with geometric, i.e. distracting attention, pattern will hide the lack of finishing finishing.
Therefore, it is necessary to take measurements. Be sure to check the vertical deflection of the walls and their perpendicularity.Pay attention to the unevenness of the floor and ceiling. Keep in mind that defects may increase over time. If you already see significant irregularities in the flooring, they will appear even more during operation.
All real estate investors, without exception, want to see modern expensive finishing coatings and structures in the apartment. If we are talking about an economy class house, everyone understands that it is not necessary to rely on high-quality material. However, for buyers of apartments in residential complexes comfort and business class deficiencies of finishing materials will already be important.
Unfortunately, many developers, in trying to avoid claims and disputes, do not prescribe clearly what materials will be used in apartments intended for delivery with final finishing. And those of the few who register, add the following phrase: "the developer reserves the right to change the brand or variety of finishing materials to the same, without sacrificing quality." If there is no compliance with the actual materials used with the declared ones, but there is this addition, you will not be able to make claims to the developer.
In any case, if there are serious doubts about the quality of materials and their origin, you are entitled to require the developer to submit documents containing information about manufacturers.
If the developer clearly described which finishing materials will be used and which equipment the company will be installed without any reservations, then it will be easy to determine at the acceptance whether the company should to the word. In order not to be deceived, we will reconcile with the information specified in the annex to the contract. Check the brand of plumbing, doors, windows, type of finishing materials. For example, if it turns out that a metal door is not installed in the apartment, but a wooden door is a serious reason for refusing to sign the act of acceptance.
How well did the builders work? How smooth and without grouting the grout, whether the pattern of the wallpaper matches, how harmonious each tile in the row looks, etc.
Whether there are mechanical damages. Whether the workers damaged the tiles, scratched the laminate, the window frame, and if there were any holes in the sink.
Whether the construction debris is removed, the results of excessively hard work are removed. For example, are there any traces of plaster on the window frame and on the glass.
Checking the area and planning for compliance with the stated parameters is worth it, since a significant deviation from the terms of the contract will lead to the purchase of an actual other object. If you chose one apartment, but in fact received a completely different one - this is not just a flaw, it is a serious violation of the terms of the contract.
Especially it is worth being vigilant if you are suddenly asked to sign an additional agreement: it may be that the "updated" data, including the new cost of an apartment (including additional meters), may be in it.
The actual area of the rooms and other rooms can be checked with the floor plan and with the annex to the contract, which reflects the layout of the apartment.
The BTI floor plan also contains information about load-bearing walls and the presence / absence of partitions. Verify this information with reality. "Stories" are known cases when the apartment lacked 2-3 walls. As well as cases when the developer tried to transfer the dwelling, which is radically different in layout from the stated characteristics. It is difficult to call these violations irrelevant.
If engineering equipment is installed in the apartment, plumbing work has been carried out, check the operation of all systems, the reliability of fasteners, the tightness of joints in the pipeline, and the gas pipeline welding and availability counters. If this is not done after a week or a month, you may find a serious malfunction, which you will have to fix at your own expense with the assistance of expensive specialists.
It is not enough to check the availability of the counters. Make sure they are sealed and the seals are intact. If the condition of the counters is not satisfactory, it is worth writing the corresponding application to the developer and asking him to eliminate the violations.
Take readings from each (consumption of electricity, gas and water at the date of acceptance). During this procedure, a representative of the developer must be present (engineer, concierge or foreman). If the reading was successful, the act of commissioning the metering devices and the metering certificate of the meter readings are signed (provided by the developer, transferred to the buyer). Together with the acts of the owner are given a technical certificate for all metering devices. Make sure that the numbers of the counters indicated in the passports correspond to the devices installed in the apartment.
in compliance with the installation rules of the heating device (2 cm from the wall, 8 from the window sill, 7 - from the floor, otherwise the heat transfer will be disturbed and the residents will constantly freeze).
Temperature regulators must be intact, easy to turn. If a pipeline is supplied to the radiators along the floor (under the screed), it must be insulated with insulation.
In the water supply and sewage system, the most important thing is to check for leaks (there should be no leakage at the junction of the elements, moisture). Visually inspect the risers - whether there is moisture on them. Under the pipes should be dry, the pipes themselves should not be rusty.
As a rule, in the case of a surface inspection of the apartment during acceptance, problems with the plumbing "float" at the most inappropriate moment - when you already moved, dismantled things and decided to try the bathroom. Therefore, a mandatory item in the list of what needs to be inspected will be plumbing and faucets. Open and close the water several times, do the procedure in the kitchen and in the bathroom.
If ventilation is broken in an apartment, it will have to be fixed, but this "pleasure" is not cheap. If you prudently took with a match, check the hood with a flame (light and watch where it deviates). If you don't have any matches or lighters with you, the check can be done with a regular sheet of paper. Attach it to the hood, if it sticks to the grid, then everything is in order. Check every shaft. Traction must be good.
If the electrical wiring is not made to the panel, but throughout the apartment, be sure to check at the time of acceptance whether the sockets, including telephone sockets, work. Each electrical outlet can be checked using a charger and telephone. But experts advise to include a drill in them in order to establish whether the power grid can withstand more powerful equipment.
Check the number of switches and sockets, make sure the fasteners are secure. Visually inspect the wires for damage. To make sure that lights work, you need a light bulb. It can be screwed into each cartridge, checking serviceability.
The most annoying thing is a malfunction in the sewer system. Make sure that the bathroom is all right. Flush water from the tank into the toilet. Make sure the tank fills. Check whether the mechanism will also work properly a second time.
In some new buildings, boilers are installed in apartments. It is worth making sure that this device also performs its function properly (to do this, turn off the hot centralized water by turning off the tap, try heating the cold water and see if the boiler does its job and how well).
Unfortunately, it is not always possible to see high-quality double-glazed windows and door designs in new apartments. But even if these structures do not have high operational properties, make sure that they are not damaged (in the form of cracks, scratches and crevices), that the handles are not broken, turn smoothly, the opening mechanism works without failures and creaking sounds, and for it launch does not require the use of additional physical effort.
There should be no draft in the junction with the wall. Of course, any, even the most dense glass unit will not provide such protection from cold and wind, like a wall, but still windows and doors must be airtight. Check the design from all sides: on the sides, top and bottom (in the case of the window - under the sill).
A seal should be laid along the perimeter of the glass unit. Inspect the slots; they should be carefully sealed. To remove all doubts, take a piece of paper, open the window, stick it in the opening and close it. If the paper is firmly "stuck" between the frame and the casement, you will not be able to pull it out. This means that the window design is adjusted and will not let air through. Make sure the sill is durable.
In this example, there is no seal along the contour of the window frame.
At the front door, look at the lock to see how freely it opens and closes. To understand whether the doorbell is working, leave the apartment and call it.
Neighborhood advice and a qualified specialist, for example, an independent construction expert, can help.
It is worthwhile to talk in advance with all tenants who have already settled in the new house. They will be happy to tell about the identified defects and share their impressions about the state of the new building. Be sure to ask how the developer representative behaved when the tenants demanded to eliminate the defects.
In addition, immediately prior to acceptance, it is worth going up to the neighbors from above and below to inspect their pipes and floors (ceilings) - whether there are any traces of flooding on them.
You may bring an expert to whom you trust for acceptance. An independent construction expert will check the area of the rooms and rooms, make the necessary measurements, determine the level of quality of construction and finishing works.
If, in your opinion, the developer has not kept his promises and rents an apartment in a "indecent" form, further developments will depend on your decisions.
But in any case, all defects must be fixed. All claims are entered into the defect list and as detailed as possible all irregularities, cracks, smudges, poorly functioning mechanism for opening doors or windows, the absence of insulation in the seams of the panels (in panel housing construction) are described. The terms for elimination are also indicated (if they are not registered, the developer will use the maximum period of 45 days). The document is filled in a free form. And the developer is obliged to sign it.
After fixing the defects, the development of events can follow one of three possible scenarios.
1. You do not sign the act and require the elimination of the defects .
Significant shortcomings. If blatant violations that make living in a new apartment impossible (significant shortcomings) have been identified, it is not recommended to sign the transfer act until the developer has corrected the violations. Even if it takes from 2 weeks to 1.5 months.
Hacking. Also, experts advise not to sign the act if a frank bustle or builders vandalism is revealed. The interest holder has the right not to accept an apartment that does not suit him. In detail, each of the violations are recorded in the inspection sheet, and the developer is notified of the deficiencies found. Either the company will eliminate violations within a reasonable time (not exceeding 45 days), or will reimburse you for the costs of eliminating them (only the amount for which checks are available).
But there is another opportunity - to agree to terminate the contract and return the money for the living space. If the parties do not come to an agreement, the problem is solved through the court. The trial will require an opinion of an independent technical expert who will confirm the validity of your claims. As well as checks confirming your expenses incurred to eliminate the marriage. Be prepared for the court to deny the claim if it deems the claims are not reasonable.
2. A shareholder may take an apartment with shortcomings and demand compensation from the developer.
You can do the elimination of the defects yourself and demand compensation from the developer for the cost of the work. But in this case, you must have all the necessary documents confirming the costs incurred. In addition to receiving compensation, you can agree with the developer to reduce the purchase price.
3. If the terms of the contract are violated and it is not possible to eliminate the marriage, the interest holder has the right to terminate the agreement with the developer.
Such a way out of the situation will be optimal if the identified defects cannot be eliminated. The developer must fulfill all obligations under the contract for which he received the money. Significant deficiencies also include apparent inconsistencies with the terms of the contract.
If during the acceptance of the marriage was not identified, but was discovered because of poor-quality repairs or violations of construction standards, it is worth remembering about the warranty period. In housing, it is 5 years. At any time during the five years you are entitled to contact the developer and demand compensation for the costs of eliminating the deficiencies. If you cannot do this directly, contact the management company, it will redirect the complaint and control the review process of your appeal. You will see that no measures are taken to resolve the problem - collect evidence of your case and contact the court.
If at any of the stages you are faced with a clear reluctance of the developer to resolve the dispute, if the company goes to the trick - trying to delay the issue, if the warranty period has expired, you should apply pressure levers - to complain to the housing inspection or prosecutor's office. Or go to court immediately.
Even if you purchase an apartment in a new economy class building, this does not mean that the developer is allowed to allow gross violations during the construction of the object. Remember, you have the right to refuse to buy if the "product" does not suit you. Require compliance with the obligations assumed by the developer. Now that you know what blatant violations developers may allow and how to properly accept an apartment in a new building, you will be able to take the necessary measures and ensure a comfortable stay in a new apartment.

The pace and sophistication of data breaches is forcing security teams to adjust their security strategies. Where prevention used to be the sole focus, now it's clear that detection and response are just as vital. Organizations are not finding the indicators of compromise within their environments soon enough, and they aren't responding to these incidents and removing them quickly enough.
In addition to rapid event detection, correlation, and response, however, we need the capability to predict future trends based on past and current behavior, which is where security analytics may prove useful. This webcast explores the growing necessity of security analytics and looks at some sample use cases to support its adoption.
The webcast will explore:
Why security professionals aren't asking the right questions - and what those questions are
Why many monitoring tools and strategies haven't worked
What security analytics is - and what it isn't
Some potential future uses of security analytics

Maybe it's Dr. Lee's chatty, likable bedside manner, or because the four skin disorders she faces are seriously gnarly, but the hour-long premiere episode is gripping right off the bat. First, there's Melissa and her three-pound pillow of a neck growth, which has forced her to wear a sweatshirt day and night for the past three years. Then there's sweet and self-deprecating Tyler, who has two mysterious cysts on his face and a worrisome family history of cancer. Taj brings Dr. Lee a chest filled with painful boils, while Amber silently suffers with an ear-piercing gone terribly wrong.
After numbing Melissa with local anesthesia (which means Melissa's awake — eek), Dr. Lee cuts into the lipoma — and immediately, the top layer of pus starts flowing out (you might want to cover your eyes for this part). The tricky part is excising the entirety of the lipoma, so Dr. Lee has to yank at the mass, pulling the solidified fat buildup out in handfuls. In the end (you can open your eyes now), there's a bowling ball-sized ball of white pus lying on the surgical table, which is a much better place for it than in Melissa's neck.
Because Taj has these steatocystoma cysts all over his body, Dr. Lee has to work slowly and methodically to make sure that she gets all the pus out all and doesn't worsen the infection. She goes to town, and if you're a self-professed popaholic, Taj's case is a must-watch. (And if you're not? Well, you know what to do.) The white and yellowish liquid spills out of his body like hot butter. "These guys are fun to remove and satisfying to watch," says Dr. Lee. "Sometimes we do a guessing game — what color is going to come out?" Lovely.

Crowds of stunned Parisians and tourists — some crying, others offering prayers — watched on in horror in central Paris on Monday evening as flames engulfed the Notre-Dame cathedral.
Gasps and cries erupted at 7:50 pm (1750 GMT) when the top portion of the church's spire came crashing down into an inferno that has spread to the entire roof.
More gasps came a few seconds later when the rest of the spire collapsed, caught on the cameras of thousands of mobile phones.

"Paris is disfigured. The city will never be like it was before," said Philippe, a communications worker in his mid-30s, who had biked over after being alerted of the fire by a friend.
"It's a tragedy," he added. "If you pray, now is the time to pray."
Police were attempting to clear pedestrians away from the two islands in the river Seine, including the Ile de la Cite which houses the soaring Gothic church, one of Europe's best known landmarks.
But throngs of onlookers kept trying to approach, snarling traffic as they massed on the stone bridges leading to the islands.
Another woman passed by, tears running from behind her glasses, too overwhelmed to speak to reporters.
"It's finished, we'll never be able to see it again," said Jerome Fautrey, a 37-year-old who had come to watch.
"Now we need to know how this happened — with everything that's going on in the world, why Notre-Dame? Maybe it's a message from on high," he said.
One police officer, arriving on one of the bridges, turned up to gape, saying "Oh my god."
"It's incredible, our history is going up in smoke," said Benoit, 42, who arrived on the scene by bike.

Overlooking 800 years of university history thanks to its stunning panoramic views and rooftop bar, Six is one of Cambridge's hidden treasures.
Tucked at the end of a winding street leading towards the river, away from the busy city centre, the restaurant and bar is located on the sixth floor of The Varsity Hotel & Spa.
When we arrive there's a queue forming with dozens hoping to get a table for dinner, or a seat on the rooftop for cocktails in the sun - and it doesn't take long to understand why Six is such a sought-after location.
With a stunning 360 degree view of Cambridge's modern and historic architecture, the stunning view is the first thing that strikes us.

Easily one of the tallest buildings in Cambridge, you can see the church spires and roofs of buildings for miles.
The restaurant's interior is just as impressive: modern, stylish and luxurious thanks to its summery leather sofas and chairs, floor to ceiling windows and quirky artwork.
The staff are attentive and speedy but not overbearing, while the layout is spacious and relaxed.

Then there's the food and drink itself; though it might cost more than your average meal, Six is the perfect venue for a special occasion and the menu offers up some tasty, faultlessly-presented delights.
While it's not something you'd immediately combine, the minty pea hummus compliments the grilled chorizo, taking the edge off of the spice - an unusual but delicious starter. The salt and pepper squid with lime mayonnaise, meanwhile, is a melt in the mouth choice.
For desert the hazelnut chocolate brownie with chocolate sauce and mascarpone is a good choice: crumbly and big enough for two, it's best shared.

But it's the main courses that really make Six shine: the lemon and rosemary roasted half chicken, served with watercress and tomato, and a side of sweet potato fries, is cooked perfectly; full of herby flavour, it just falls off the bone; the creamy butter sauce is a great accompaniment too.
Another fine choice is the Gloucester Old Spot crispy pork belly with apple sauce and buttered spinach; combined with the strong cinnamon taste of the apple sauce, it creates a real taste sensation...
But that's not all Six has to offer. After our meal we head upstairs to the rooftop bar - with a Basil Grande' cocktail in hand (a delicious mix of strawberries, raspberry liqueur, vodka, fresh basil and ground paper, shaken with cranberry juice, the sweet,

fruity flavours add up to the perfect drink).
With dozens of waiters and waitresses on hand, we're quickly seated and enjoying the chilled-out surroundings before finding the terrace's selfie spot.
Perfect for after work drinks, couples going on a first date or - particularly in Cambridge - a post-graduation celebration, if you're looking for something special or want to impress, a trip to Six bar and roof terrace is essential.

Q: Error using kernlab package with precomputed kernels I have been using the kernlab package and been facing issues using ksvm/predict function with precomputed kernels.
The error message I have got is:
> ksvm.mod <- ksvm(trainingset.outer, traininglabels.outer, kernel = "matrix",type="C-svc", C = 60, prob.model = TRUE)
> temp <-  predict(ksvm.mod, test.kernel.outer)
Error in .local(object, ...) : test vector does not match model !

I have looked at the source code for the place of error and found that it is due to difference in columns
newnrows <- nrow(newdata)
newncols <- ncol(newdata)
if(!is(newdata,"kernelMatrix") && !is.null(xmatrix(object))){
  if(is(xmatrix(object),"list") && is(xmatrix(object)[[1]],"matrix")) oldco <- ncol(xmatrix(object)[[1]])
  if(is(xmatrix(object),"matrix")) oldco <- ncol(xmatrix(object))
  if (oldco != newncols) stop ("test vector does not match model !")
}

However, the objects I have used have equal columns
> ncol(trainingset.outer)
[1] 1498
> ncol(test.kernel.outer)
[1] 1498

Then, I have looked at the columns stored as per the models and found the below:
> ncol(xmatrix(ksvm.mod)[[1]])
Error in xmatrix(ksvm.mod)[[1]] : subscript out of bounds
> xmatrix(ksvm.mod)[[1]]
Error in xmatrix(ksvm.mod)[[1]] : subscript out of bounds
> xmatrix(ksvm.mod)
<0 x 0 matrix>
> ?xmatrix
> ksvm.mod
Support Vector Machine object of class "ksvm"

SV type: C-svc  (classification)
 parameter : cost C = 60

[1] " Kernel matrix used as input."

Number of Support Vectors : 831

Objective Function Value : -211534.1
Training error : 0.257677
Probability model included.
> ncol(xmatrix(gene)[[1]]) # for dataframes used without precomputed kernels
[1] 172

I guess the model didn't store any object, am I correct in understanding ? As there are no good examples in web for using the package with precomputed kernels, I am writing for your help.
PS: I will try to provide the data for testing, if required.

A: You are doing it half right. The predict object wants only the kernel distance between newdata and support vectors, but it doesn't extract them itself, you must pass them yourself.
Try this:
ksvm.mod <- ksvm(trainingset.outer, traininglabels.outer, kernel = "matrix",type="C-svc", C = 60, prob.model = TRUE)
temp <-  predict(ksvm.mod, test.kernel.outer[, SVindex(ksvm.mod))

I'm assuming here test.kernel.outer is a kernelMatrix that measures the kernel distance between test data (rows) and train data (columns).

I was looking for an inexpensive remote for my Canon 40D SLR. I had looked at the Canon infrared remotes (like the Canon RC-1), but didn't like the idea of having to be line of sight with the infrared window of the camera. They were inexpensive, but you'd still have to use the in camera timer if you wanted to be in the shot (or have a nice picture of yourself holding the remote).
1 x V2s Wire/Wireless Remote Control C3 for Canon 10D 20D 30D 40D 50D 5D 5D Mark II 1D 1Ds and etc.
What's new with this Wire/Wireless Remote Control?
Work as both wired and wireless remote control.
The receiver works as a wired remote as well, even without the battery and transmitter.
The receiver can be mounted on the hot shoe.
With the receiver connected to your camera's remote control socket, you can press the button on the transmitter to trigger your camera's shutter wirelessly!
The receiver alone can be used as a standard wired remote control, even without the battery and transmitter.
Two-Level Shutter Button, Autofocus, Continuous Drive & Bulb Mode Supported Too!
The shutter buttons on the transmitter or receiver can be pressed halfway or all the way (half-press or full-press).
You can activate autofocus, release shutter, activate continuous drive mode or keep the shutter open for bulb photography as well.
16 Channels with Working Distance of 100 Meters!
There are 16 channels available so that you can switch to other channels to avoid jamming frequency.
Maximum working distance is about 100 Meters in open area without blockage.
The receiver can be mounted on the hot shoe, like a flash gun.
If you need to use the hot shoe for your flash or spirit level, you can use the Free fastener tape to mount the receiver on your tripod.
With its low voltage and energy saving design, you don't have to change the battery often.
With a new battery, the receiver standby time is about 100 hours.
With a new battery, the remote control can trigger about 1,000 times.
Since you can trigger the shutter without touching the camera body, it can avoid camera vibration, thus resulting in sharper pictures.
Half Press to activates autofocus.
Switch the camera to single shot mode.
Full Press to release shutter and take pictures.
Switch the camera to continuous drive mode.
Full Press and hold it to release shutter continuously.
Switch the camera to Bulb mode.
Full Press for 3 seconds.
The receiver is in bulb mode now.
Press the button again to close the shutter.
Seemed a little to good to be true for $18.00 with free shipping from Hong Kong. Well it delivered on everything promised (took about a week in shipping). The product quality very reasonable prosumer camera user. It worked as designed. The wireless work at distances up to 50 ft. (I didn't try any farther) with the antenna still in the remote. The LED's on the hand held remote and the camera mounted receiver unit were very informative about what was going on.
I got my JY-110 a few weeks ago and it worked great.. however it no longer will take a picture - or trigger the shutter.
If I use the remote, my shutter button or the shutter button on top of the hot shoe, they will all auto-focus, however the remote and the unit on the hot shot (the JY-100 pieces) dont take a picture.. they autofocus, but no picture.
I have changed the battery as well.
On the remote, the timer mode also works and does the countdown... but no green light or picture can be taken.
When I push the remote half way down, it will focus and the light turns green.. but then turns red when I push it the rest of the way down.
Doesn't work with my 5d. It just focuses but doesn't allow for the shot.
I'm having the same problem! I bought the model compatible for the GF1 a few days ago, but mine just focus and doesn't trigger the shutter. Does anybody has a solution for this? I've been looking for an answer around with no success.
I haven't had any problems with my remote (other than forgetting to turn it off and wearing the camera remote battery down). My guess is there are some bad units out there, but I can only comment on my experience with the Canon 40D. I'd expect the same connector with the 5D.
For my Canon 40D, it's just a simple 3 pin connector that does all the functions. If it focuses (which means the camera remote is on) -it takes the picture.
I got main on eBay from China and it didn't work, so after some back and forward conversation with the seller he sent me another one another one and- surprise! - the same problem:( the camera unit work fine when installed on a camera, but the remote itself is completely dead. I changed the battery, so from then when I push the remote half way down, the light turns green.. but then turns red right away when push it the rest of the way down.


How is your vision? What do you "see" when you read the account of the foot washing in the thirteenth chapter of the Gospel of John?
If you can not "see" the example given by the inmyownname eye chart test, then you are blind in part at least. You can not "see" the response of Jesus to the heel lifted up against him.
However, I give this eye test only in my own name.

Types of Computer Games
Game Designers are artists that create applications and games for players to interact with. A game is usually a structured, non-linear form of play, sometimes used for fun or entertainment, and at other times used as a teaching tool. Games are very different from work, which are often carried out for remuneration only, and from writing, which is primarily an expressive expression of aesthetic or psychological elements. Game Designers often has an inborn creative instinct and enjoy coming up with new ways to express it in games. Some specialize in particular forms of media, such as Visual Concepts, Video Games, Web Design, Audio Software, or Role Playing Games.
There are many examples of how Game Designers has exercised their creativity over time. One of the most famous is chess, which was first developed by David Tata almost two thousand years ago. It has become so popular that there are now educational courses in schools and even businesses that teach how to play the game and build their own customized chessboards. Chris Crawford, who invented the game called Chucho Games, has also become a renowned teacher and author on this subject. He has written numerous books on the history of chess, its relation to psychology, business, art, literature, etc.
Another great example is playing the game called Sesame Street. This show, whose roots began on the HBO television channel in 1969, has become one of the most watched children's programs in history. The characters include Alex the Sesame Street Guy, Hizzie, Mr. Squigly, Big Bird, Bill the Builder, Cookie Monster, and many more. There are many popular visiting team games between the two teams at the center of the set, called the Mardi Gras Cartons.
Modern day computer games have taken the world of board games to new levels of complexity and entertainment. Computer games can be played using a computer, or on a personal computer. There are many multiplayer online computer games as well as single player games. There are role-playing games (like Ultima), cooking games (like Farmville), and racing games (like Sim City).
Single players are usually controlled by the computer, where the players take turns. If anyone lands on "win" after three minutes, they win the game. If any of the two teams lands on "loses" after three minutes, they lose the game. There are no teams in these games, but instead, each person is assigned an avatar, or role, and that person can play the game in one of several ways, depending on the type of avatar they have chosen.
Computer games have changed the way people play. They can be played by anyone with a computer who wants to play. The interaction between players is easy because the computer is actually taking care of everything. Instead of having two teams battling it out for victory, they are given tasks to do throughout the course of the game and are allowed to collaborate with each other, working together to beat the competition.

History Department...
The department has 5 members of staff:
Mr G Aubrey,
Miss J Westcott,
Ms K Phillips,
Mr P Birch,
The department has 3 specialist rooms.
* To make the study of history enjoyable and engaging.
* To create a stimulating and active learning environment.
* To enable students to gain understanding of their world through the study of history.
* To develop a range of skills through the study of history.
Students in Years 7, 8 and 9 learn in mixed ability form groups with all pupils being taught by specialist history teachers. By the end of Key Stage 3 students will have studied a wide range of engaging topics developing their knowledge of Welsh, British and World history through varied activities.
Topics explored in Year 7 pupils include the Norman Conquest of England and Wales linked to a study of castles and the Black Death.
In Year 8 the dramatic religious changes made by the larger than life Tudor Monarchs and the Civil War are followed by an in depth study of the Slave Trade.
The importance of Wales in the Industrial Revolution links Years 8 and 9. Major 20th century events are the focus of Year 9, including Titanic and World War 1. The Key Stage is completed by an in depth study of 'Persecution and Prejudice'.
History is a popular and successful option subject at GCSE offering a relevant WJEC modern world history course.
Year 10 pupils study in depth USA 1910-1929 and Germany 1929 to 1945.
In Year 11 an outline study of the USA, 1929 – 1990 is undertaken, with a focus on race relations and America's role in the world. There is also a coursework module, which investigates aspects of Britain in World War 2 and is worth 25% of the overall GCSE grade.
All pupils are entered for the same examination at the end of Year 11, which allows all pupils to potentially achieve the highest grades.
At AS/A2 level History is very successful subject with 2 teaching groups in Years 12 and 13.
The emphasis is on modern history with a period study of Europe, c.1878 – 1990 which builds on the GCSE course by studying dictators like Mussolini and Stalin and conflicts from World War 1 through to the ending of the Cold War.
This supplemented by an in depth study of Britain, c. 1929 – 1939. The modules give pupils the opportunity to spread their examinations across the two year course.
• Module HY1 on the causes, events and impact of World War 1, along with a study of Mussolini and his various policies is examined in June of Year 12
• Module HY2 on Britain 1929 to 1939 is examined in June of Year 12
• Module HY4 focuses on the causes, events and impact of World War 2 and subsequent Cold War, along with a synoptic question for both European and British History, which is examined in June of Year 13.
• Module HY3 is a British history coursework to which a substantial amount of class time is allocated.
The aims of the department are :


This renewal grant to the Institute for Fisheries Resources will support its efforts to remove four dams on the Klamath River that have blocked salmon from migrating upstream to spawning grounds. The Klamath River once hosted the third-largest runs of salmon on the West Coast. To secure dam removal, the Institute will work to implement an agreement signed by farmers, ranchers, Native American tribes, and fishing interests in the region. The agreement seeks to meet current water needs related to Native American tribes, agriculture, and fish restoration in the Klamath watershed and once dams are removed.


All Explore Center students participate in the COMPASS Advising Program each semester. The purpose of the program is to help students prepare for future course registration and progress toward their academic, career, and personal goals.
All Explore Center students are required to meet with an Explore Center advisor at least twice each semester. Students have a registration hold on their account preventing them from enrolling for future terms. This hold is released after they have completed their individualized COMPASS plan. We encourage students to begin meeting with their advisor early in the semester in order to allow them to identify and work toward their goals before their priority registration date for the next semester arrives.
For Undeclared students at sophomore standing or above (27 or more earned credit hours), the COMPASS program allows them to build a specialized plan to aid in their major exploration and declaration process. Students at sophomore standing or above will be required to declare a major within three semesters and may declare a major at any point during this time.
For Pre-Health or Pre-Law students, this plan will include important steps to take in preparing for a professional career in addition to major exploration.
For students pursuing a healthcare career that doesn't require them to declare a major at UNL (Pre-Nursing, Pre-Dental Hygiene, etc.), their COMPASS plan will help them prepare for their application and admission to professional health school.
Students can schedule an appointment with an Explore Center advisor to discuss the COMPASS program or start their individualized plan by clicking the link below.

NAGA CITY — The most powerful image in the annual celebration of the feast of Our Lady of Peñafrancia could be that of streets morphing into a mass of countless human bodies moving as one in the direction of the revered image of the Virgin Mary, which has been inspiring devotion for 307 years now.
Among the hundreds of thousands of people with a common objective of touching the image was Gilbert Sarmiento, 40, who sat in a wheelchair selling candles with a fellow devotee, Gloria Argente, outside Naga Metropolitan Cathedral.
They were among the 1.8 to 2 million devotees awaiting the start of the fluvial procession on Saturday for "Ina," or mother, as the Our Lady of Peñafrancia had become known among the faithful here. The procession was the culmination of a nine-day prayer for the most revered religious icon in all of Bicol.
Sarmiento, a first-time pilgrim, had been in the city since Sept. 13 with other fellow Batangueños who tried to earn on the side selling candles while waiting for their turn to touch Ina's image, which was believed to bring miracles or grant wishes.
Sarmiento was born with poliomyelitis, a disease that impaired his ability to walk. He had surgery just to walk with the aid of crutches. Moving among the hundreds of thousands that filled the city streets, however, would be impossible for him.
"I came here to get the chance to pray and ask Ina for good health for me and my children," he said.
Sarmiento and fellow devotee, Argente, slept on the grass and anywhere they could at night.
Argente had been going on the pilgrimage for Ina for 24 years.
"We sleep on the grass with only plastic sheets as mats or inside jeepneys," she said. From Ina, she wished for two miracles — peace for her children and freedom for a son in jail.
Near where Sarmiento and Argente were positioned also sat Flordeliza Asi, 68, and her grandson, Jayson De Torres, 27, also from Batangas.
They listened intently to Mass being celebrated inside the cathedral and broadcast by speakers to the faithful outside.
A beach umbrella covered them from intense sunlight that brought average temperatures exceeding 35 degrees Celsius.
Torres has hydrocephalus. According to Asi, Torres had promised Ina to be at the procession every year for five years. This was his fifth year in the pilgrimage, according to Torres.
Although doctors had told Torres the hydrocephalus could no longer be removed by surgery because he was too old for it, he had kept faith.
"We are still here to pray for a cure and for Ina to guide us out of poverty," Asi said.
Fatima Asor, 12 and born with cleft palate, was a first-time pilgrim, too. She went with her grandmother, Carmen Asola.
In homily during the Mass preceding the fluvial procession, Rev. Msgr. Noe P. Badiola, parish priest of Naga Metropolitan Cathedral, said absence in the Bicol region's biggest religious celebration did not mean exclusion from blessings.
He thanked the millions who filled the city's streets to honor Ina, however.
Devotion to Ina started in 1710 by Fr. Miguel Robles de Covarrubias, who introduced Ina to the natives. The image was from the mountains of Peña de Francia in Spain.
The celebration starts every year with the traslacion, a procession that marks the transfer of Ina's image from the old Peñafrancia Shrine to the cathedral where it would stay for the nine-day novena.
The image is again brought to its permanent home at the Basilica Minore in a colorful fluvial procession on the Naga River as the culmination of the Peñafrancia feast.
During both processions, male devotees called "voyadores" carry the image.

Vice President U Myint Swe speaks at World Population Day event»

Vice President U Myint Swe delivered an opening address at the World Population Day 2019 event held in the Thingaha Hotel in Nay Pyi Taw yesterday morning.
The Vice President said today's world population was over 7,700 million and by 2030 it was estimated to be about 8,500 million. Due to the rapid increase of population in poor countries, many challenges were being faced. Rapid increase in population was one of the obstacles to sustainable development goals.
Family planning would raise the rights of individuals and reduce poverty. It would be very effective for social development such as education, health and gender equality.
In the world today there were countries that won population benefits and at the same time there were countries that were depopulating facing problems of higher numbers of elderlies, declining and scarcity of work force and higher funding required for social protection works.
If population benefits were used effectively, they would support economic development. In addition to this, increase of migrant workers was a major factor towards demographic change in a country.
World population Day events were held annually in every country of the world in order that each country and the entire world became aware of the importance of resolving the matter of population. Myanmar has been observing this day since 1990 and this was the 30th time it was being observed.
When the world population reached 5,000 million on 11 July 1987, United Nations designated that day as World Population Day and events like this were being held starting from 1989. United Nations Population Fund also announced themes for each World Population Day and this year's theme was "25 years of the ICPD: Accelerating the promise."
This theme was also the theme for 25th International Conference on Population and Development to be held at Kenya, Nairobi in November 2019 also.
The main aim of this year's theme was to review the work processes set down at the International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) held in 1994 at Egypt, Cairo, the implementation of it throughout the 25 years period and to maintain and continue the implementation momentum. The main sectors were reproductive health, capacity raising of women and achieving gender equality.
According to worldwide information in the reproductive health sector women's usage of modern family planning methods rose from 52 percent in 1994 to 58 per cent in 2019.

In countries where development was weak, women's usage of modern family planning methods was only 15 per cent in 1994 and by 2019 it had risen to 37 per cent. This was a good progress.
Birth rate of the world was 2.9 per woman in 1994 and this declined to 2.5 in 2019. In developing countries the birth rate was 5.6 per woman in 1994 and it was significantly reduced to 3.9 in 2019.
Maternal mortality was also reduced. In 1994 there were 369 maternal mortalities in 100,000 live births and in 2019 there were only about 216 maternal mortalities.
Based on 2014 Census data Myanmar population was estimated to be more than 54 million in 2019 and would be more than 59 million in 2030. Since it was achieving population benefits at the moment, this should be effectively used and the force of the youths needs to be used effectively in the country's development projects. Preparation on strengthening social protection system is required to cope with increasing numbers of elderlies in the future.
Ever since Myanmar acceded to ICPD it had been implementing the work guidelines. Maternal mortalities in 100,000 live births were reduced from 453 in 1990 to 282 according to 2014 Census. According to 2015-2016 Myanmar Demographic and Health Survey it was reduced further to 178. However this number was still high.
For reproductive health care opportunities to be within reach Myanmar's first policy on Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights was being drawn up.
To uplift family planning health care and the lives of women in Myanmar, Myanmar made a commitment on November 2013 for Family Planning 2020. Usage of contraceptive medicines in married women rose from 16 per cent in 1991 to 51 per cent according to the 2015-2016 Myanmar Demographic and Health Survey. However, there is much still remaining to be done.
To raise the capacity of women, national level strategic plans were setup and at the moment the 2013-2022 project was being implemented. Myanmar also acceded to the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) in 1997. It could be clearly seen that gender and women rights were included in the Myanmar Sustainable Development Plan (2018-2030).
Policies, regulations and laws required on implementing reproductive health, raising the capacity of women and gender equality sectors were to be drawn up and existing policies, regulations and laws were to be amended so that it was in accord with the prevailing situation. While inviting the participation of related local and foreign entities, Myanmar government ministerial departments were required to conduct works as a national duty, said the Vice President.
Next the Union Minister for Labour, Immigration and Population made a Power Point explanation about the theme "25 years of the ICPD: Accelerating the promise."
Afterwards United Nations Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator in Myanmar Mr Knut Ostby explained about holding the World Population Day event.
Later a video on family planning and an animation video clip on the theme "25 years of the ICPD: Accelerating the promise" was shown.
Finally, the event came to a close after Association of Francois-Xavier Bagnoud (AFXB Myanmar) recited a silver anniversary poem.
After the event the Vice President, Union Ministers and attendees took a commemorative group photo and observed the World Population Day exhibition.
The second part of the event was then held where women and youths expressed their views regarding changes in Myanmar before and after ICPD; after this there were discussions and a Q&A session.
The event was attended by the following dignitaries, senior officials and diplomats, among others:
Union Ministers Dr Pe Myint, Dr Aung Thu, U Thein Swe, Dr Myo Thein Gyi, Dr Win Myat Aye, Nai Thet Lwin and U Kyaw Tin, Union Civil Service Board Chairman Dr Win Thein, foreign diplomats, representatives of United Nations organizations, departmental heads, nurses and midwives, students, representatives of INGOs and NGOs, invited guests and officials.— MNA

i'm also thinking about giving it a shot myself, according to Jon Rock it was a lot of fun to do a Mardi Gras, back to kindergarten!
aaah what a shame, found this one only 2 weeks ago.....yours is repainted already i think...?
Good find and good luck with the projects, if I could just get my hands on an Adroit!


Editor's note: This post picks up again on our blog post series on container security at Google.
At Google Cloud, we care deeply about protecting your data. That's why we encrypt data at rest by default, including data in Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE). For Kubernetes secrets—small bits of data your application needs at build or runtime—your threat model might be different, so storage-layer encryption is insufficient. Today, we're excited to announce in beta GKE application-layer secrets encryption, using the same keys you manage in our hosted Cloud Key Management Service (KMS).
Kubernetes 1.7 first introduced application-layer encryption of secrets for differential protection of secrets. Using this feature, you can encrypt your secrets locally, with a key also stored in etcd. If you're running Kubernetes in an environment that doesn't provide encryption by default, this helps meet security best practices; however, if a malicious intruder gained access to etcd, they would still practically have access to your secrets.
A few releases later in Kubernetes 1.10, envelope encryption of secrets with a KMS provider was introduced, meaning that a local key is used to encrypt the secrets (known as a "data encryption key"), and that the key is itself encrypted with another key not stored in Kubernetes (a "key encryption key"). This model means that you can regularly rotate the key encryption key without having to re-encrypt all the secrets. Furthermore, it means that you can rely on an external root of trust for your secrets in Kubernetes—systems ike Cloud KMS or HashiCorp Vault.
Application-layer secrets encryption is now in beta in GKE, so you can protect secrets with envelope encryption: your secrets are encrypted locally in AES-CBC mode with a local data encryption key, and the data encryption key is encrypted with a key encryption key you manage in Cloud KMS as the root of trust. It's pretty simple as all the hard work is done for you—all you have to do is choose the key you want to use for a particular cluster.
Root of trust: You can choose whether to protect your secrets using only Kubernetes, with application-layer software-based encryption with a key from Cloud KMS, or hardware-based encryption from Cloud HSM.
Key rotation: You can implement best practices for regular key rotation for your root of trust.
Separation of duties: You can separate who manages your cluster and who manages and protects your secrets.
Centralized auditing: You can manage and audit key accesses centrally, and use the same key for your secrets in Kubernetes as you use for other secrets in GCP.
Note that you must use a Cloud KMS key in the same location as your cluster, and that you need to give a GKE service account account to use your key for these operations.
That's how easy it is to encrypt your Kubernetes secrets with GKE. For more detail, check out Application-layer Secrets Encryption, or this Cloud KMS hands-on lab1. We also gave a talk on Kubernetes secrets at KubeCon China that provides more color. Now encrypt those secrets!

This article is going to introduce the reviews of three former white supremacists autobiographies: TJ Leyden, Frank Meeink and Arno Michaelis. I will also be reviewing other autobiographies of former white supremacists that come out, so far we are awaiting stories from: Angela King, Tony McAleer and Christian Picciolini.
This resource is intended to provide a public resource that considers the range and frequency of social change and identity transformation that human beings can achieve. Elements of the human experience such as resiliency and compassion are at the forefront of each one of these people's experiences. I have had interactions with each and everyone of these people and it has been my observation that each one is brilliant and brave in their own way because they speak openly to the public about their life stories. Each one of us that has a public role and speak openly about our pasts risk public criticism, but in spite of the criticisms anyone may have, each one of us are vulnerable and offering that vulnerability to the general public in hopes that we can contribute to a better world; at least that is the trusted perspective of each one of us.
There is no doubt that I have a very analytical perspective and some people can be offended by this fact, but I hope that people do not mistake my directness for malice. I prefer to make statements that are sharp, and sometimes perceived as stabbing, only to encourage and challenge people and institutions. It appears to me that the network of former extremists and terrorists is in motion towards developing as a [sub] culture. I have observed social dynamics developing within the public work we do as individuals forming a collective direction, not all of which are beneficial dynamics. Collectivity can sometimes form into a negative institutional steady state. I hope to contribute my analysis to our collective in order to offer analytical perspectives that may otherwise go unmentioned.
First, I will offer excerpts from my graduate studies thesis, which include some basic interactions I have had with each of these people. I will then offer the process and findings of my research analysis of TJ Leyden, Frank Meeink, Arno Michaelis and myself. Following this article you will then be able to read my book reviews of each of these former white supremacists stories. Preceding this article I did write a comprehensive book review of Elisa Hategan's book Race Traitor: The True Story of Canadian Intelligence Service's Greatest Cover-Up. It is my hope that this resource of exit stories is accessed by people in order to encourage others to change and to offer possible ways we as formers can keep engaged with further growth as individuals within the public forum.

My relationships with several FVRWE (Former Violent Right Wing Extremists; aka i.e. white supremacist racist skinheads) are included within this study. I had been introduced to these FVRWE over the last decade. First was my contact with TJ Leyden.
I wanted to find some sort of literature, or at least an explanation that would deconstruct and prove the RWE doctrine wrong. I wanted hard facts to say that there was no such thing as a 'Zionist-conspiracy,' which is allegedly claimed to have an intention to obliterate the 'white race'. TJ Leyden referred me to a cultic studies expert who then put me in touch with an organization in Edmonton, Alberta, that worked with former cult members. That agency then invited me to a global cultic studies conference that was held in Edmonton, at the University of Alberta. Coincidentally the conference was being held shortly after I began searching for this help. My journey began. I now understand this journey to be the process of surpassing the mere behavioral change of disengagement. The role of post-secondary education in my life in conjunction with First Nations' culture, language, and ceremony has enabled me to integrate a degree of decolonial praxis into my healing journey (Gallant, 2014, p. 77-78).
I had not been in contact with TJ Leyden since I first contacted him nearly a decade ago, until recently. I was re-introduced to TJ through the social network AVE. After several online discussions with an executive at Google Ideas we had a lengthy phone conversation about my life and what I am researching. He informed me of the reasons why the AVE (Against Violent Extremism) network was started. He stated that the white supremacist movement has always had an online presence since the beginning of the internet… Moreover, my introduction to the Internet was through the white supremacist movement in 1996. Specifically I was introduced to Stormfront, which is a discussion board run by RWE (Right Wing Extremist) Don Black… I broadened my white supremacist involvement through online forums such as Stormfront…, and then later recruited youth in cyber spaces…[as I had indicated on the short documentary film Brotherhood of Hate] (Gallant, 2014, p. 79).
Arno founded an online journal of basic human kindness called Life-after-hate … I discovered Arno was the front man of a white supremacist hate rock band that I used to listen to and pump myself up with before I would get energized with hate and beat people on the streets. Arno's…music was a passionately hateful charged system that fueled masses of [violent right ring extremist] youth across the world. Arno's band sang anthems from an organization that I belonged to, World Church of the Creator…Arno's band had record sales alone that exceeded over 20,000 copies in the 1990s… Now after many years, Arno and I were introduced [to one another] through AVE and Lah…I was excited to add Arno to my list of credible [former-violent-right-wing-extremists] for this study.
The other name I want to mention is Tony McAleer. Tony is a Canadian who was a leader of the VRWE network in Canada and has since become a bona fide FVRWE…Tony is the only one of these FVRWE that I had met in the past, during my time in the Canadian white supremacist movement. We had met one time in Vancouver, BC, during the 1990s. Tony is also the only FVRWE I have met in person within AVE to date. I re-acquainted with him on April 4, 2013, in Vancouver, BC. Unfortunately Tony's autobiography [has not come] out in time for this study. I hope to include both Tony and Angela's autobiographies in future studies, after they are published (Gallant, 2014, p. 80-81).
Through the AVE…and other similar networks, we see that the emerging culture of [former extremists] includes former cult members, former extremists, and former gang members. This collective social network has already developed cultural nuances. For instance NGOs, online dialogues, discourse, and narratives could be seen as the beginnings of new era of counter-[extremist] dialogues/measures. Further establishing a cohesive culture of [former extremists] could prove to be an effective counter-[extremist/terrorist] measure.
I have identified autobiographies of three separate [former white supremacists in North America]: TJ Leyden, Frank Meeink and Arno Michaelis and I have included some of my published autobiographic narratives as well [for analysis in my study]. These authors are all [former violent white supremacist extremists]…Positioning myself within the AVE, as an author for Lah, research affiliate of Terror, Security And Society (TSAS), graduate studies researcher, educator, activist, and a member of the emerging cultural phenomenon of [former violent right wing extremists]. I hope to contribute to counter-terrorist discourse, particularly to fill in some gaps identified by Dr. John Horgan…who calls for qualitative research on the disengagement process from [violent extremist/terrorist action] (Gallant, 2014, p. 112 – 113).
It is my hope that this Exit Resource website will contribute to a broader understanding of the human capacity for social change and identity transformation. This will be the first article in a series of book reviews and analysis of stories of former violent extremists.
