El calendari de conservació i eliminació és una eina de gestió documental que permet difondre les regles de conservació i que estableix els terminis de retenció dels documents en les successives fases del cicle vital i la seva disposició final.

Elaboració
Les etapes d'elaboració d'un calendari de conservació i d'eliminació són les següents:
 Fase d'implantació de la direcció: Cal disposar des del principi del suport de la direcció de l'organització per tal que s'elabori i s'apliqui el calendari de conservació i eliminació.
 Fase d'anàlisi: l'arxiver o arxivera recollirà tota la informació que ha de servir-li per a elaborar el calendari. Partirà del quadre de classificació.
 Fase d'elaboració d'un calendari: aquesta fase està molt relacionada amb el procés d'avaluació de la documentació, es definiran els camps que han de figurar al calendari, forma, abreviatures, convencions que s'utilitzaran i els elements complementaris i clarificadors.
 Fase d'aprovació del calendari: es buscarà el suport de la màxima autoritat administrativa de l'organització, que s'hagi aprovat per l'autoritat arxivística (si n'hi ha) tot i que no és obligatori.
 Fase de difusió: aquest calendari és un document que s'ha de fer servir per a la gestió diària de la documentació, de forma que el personal ha de conèixer el temps que ha de tenir la documentació a l'oficina, quan ha de fer les transferències de documentació a l'arxiu i quin serà el destí últim d'aquesta documentació.
 Fase de revisió i actualització del calendari: és un document de treball i per tant actiu i en constant evolució, fet que implica la seva revisió i actualització.

És l'arxiver o arxivera qui fixa els terminis de conservació en cada fase del cicle vital dels documents aprovades per les taules d'avaluació documental.

Tot i que el calendari de conservació pot presentar diverses formes, hi ha uns elements comuns que han d'aparèixer habitualment i que són els següents:
 Codi de la taula d'avaluació documental i de la corresponent disposició d'avaluació.
 Codi de classificació.
 Títol de la sèrie documental.
 Codi o nom de la unitat productora o unitats productores.
 Període de retenció dels expedients i els documents primaris i secundaris en la seva fase activa (arxiu de gestió) i semiactiva (arxiu administratiu), i la disposició final en la fase inactiva (conservació a l'arxiu històric o eliminació definitiva). A cada fase se li atribueix un valor numèric que fa referència als anys de permanència física del document als diferents arxius i les indicacions per a la disposició.
 Apartat d'informació complementària per tal d'ampliar la informació sobre conservació o eliminació, si cal.

Per resoldre les necessitats de la institució poden aparèixer altres informacions com:
 Els tipus de suport documental.
 Les disposicions que afecten la norma, com ara la data de la resolució, la data de la seva publicació en un butlletí oficial o el número del butlletí oficial on s'ha publicat la resolució.
 La funció administrativa.
 La menció d'essencialitat de la sèrie.
 Les observacions o la informació complementària.
 El nivell i la condició d'accés.

Normalment el calendari de conservació i d'eliminació té la forma de quadre, però es planteja la necessitat d'elaborar un document més complet, com un petit manual d'avaluació i tria que també pot incloure una explicació del procés d'elaboració del calendari de conservació, amb especial referència a l'aprovació normativa del document.

La concepció del calendari de conservació i d'eliminació hauria d'anar de la mà del quadre de classificació, és possible que tots dos documents formen un d'únic. El calendari de conservació i d'eliminació permet realitzar, d'una manera més eficaç i programada, les transferències als arxius, i són moltes les organitzacions en què el calendari de conservació i d'eliminació és determinant a l'hora d'efectuar la transferència de documentació a l'arxiu.

L'aplicació del calendari de conservació i d'eliminació
Per a la documentació que s'ha de conservar de forma permanent cal establir uns mecanismes de conservació, d'accessibilitat (bé sigui lliure o restringida) o de transferència a un arxiu històric.

En cas que la documentació es pugui eliminar s'ha de fer d'acord amb un mecanisme sistematitzat que ha d'incloure:
 Una metodologia acurada i controlada de difusió de les resolucions.
 Un sistema de detecció de la documentació que es pot destruir, si ja ha finalitzat el període de vigència administrativa (el més automàtic possible).
 Un circuit amb els passos a seguir per eliminar la documentació amb uns requisits bàsics (notificació de la destrucció a les unitats afectades, notificació a la comissió d'avaluació i tria, anotació al llibre de registre d'eliminació de la documentació i descripció detallada de la documentació que s'elimina).
 Mecanismes de control per evitar la destrucció de documentació que no hagi de ser destruïda.
 Garantia que es destruiran les còpies, duplicats i suports de substitució, i còpies de seguretat (en cas de documents electrònics).
 La sistematització de la consideració de testimonis o de mostres de la documentació eliminades.

Cal també que existeix un sistema que especifiqui com s'ha de procedir amb la literatura grisa, les còpies, les fotocòpies, els faxos i tots aquells documents que no són objecte d'arxiu, però que poden causar confusió. El SGD ha de garantir que només arribarà a l'arxiu allò que és document administratiu, i així s'evita l'acumulació de documents que no tenen valor.

Quant a leliminació en cas que s'hagi de destruir físicament la documentació, s'ha de fer amb totes les garanties. Es pot fer amb mitjans propis o bé amb una empresa de destrucció externa. En aquest últim cas sol·licitarem un certificat de destrucció que garantirà la destrucció total i el tractament confidencial dels documents.

Poden existir excepcions a la destrucció, per motius determinats, i no aplicar-la a una sèrie documental determinada. Inclús l'eliminació pot comportar dilemes ètics quan es fan prevaldre els criteris econòmics per sobre els tècnics, atès que conservar els documents és costós. És feina de l'arxiver o arxivera compatibilitzar la política de l'organització amb una actuació professionalment acurada.

Here is a true delight for all ballet fans and music-lovers. This recording of what is probably Tchaikovsky's most popular ballet, Swan Lake, by Ernest Ansermet and his orchestra in a masterly performance is now available as a new pressing in vinyl. The Russian composer's first ballet is offered here on a double LP and although not a complete recording, this compilation (with a minimum of cuts) certainly comprises the most beautiful and expressive scenes, losing nothing in the process.
"Ballet specialist" Ansermet and his wonderfully balanced Orchestre de la Suisse Romande offer here a recording which you'll want to hear again and again for it captures both the tragic moments of the fairy tale and the festive dance scenes. The precise winds in, for example No. 4, provide a marked contrast to the lively and exciting tutti (No. 5), while the gentle woodwinds blend charmingly with the dreamlike cantilena of the strings (No. 11). The various characteristics of the festive national dances (Polkas, Mazurkas, Hungarian Dance etc.) are performed with temperament, verve and rhythm, but it is the waltzes with their sweet dreaminess which invite the listener most of all to put on their dancing shoes and join in the dance.

Rajan says Indonesia Succesfull in Cash Transfer for the Poor
Redaksi 3:24 AM English, Top
Tobapos -- After 11 months of battling speculators nipping at India's currency, Raghuram Rajan is going after a more powerful enemy: the nation's crony capitalists. Six years ago, Rajan, a former International Monetary Fund (IMF) chief economist, was warning about India's billionaire problem. After Russia, as he repeatedly pointed out, India had the most billionaires per $1 trillion (Dh3.67 trillion) of gross domestic product. Most were not self-made entrepreneurs, but well-connected oligarchs who had exploited stealth privatisations and huge and inefficient government subsidy programmes to build up massive fortunes.
Rajan, now governor of the Reserve Bank of India, is calling out those same billionaires. "An important issue in the recent election was whether we had substituted the crony socialism of the past with crony capitalism, where the rich and the influential are alleged to have received land, natural resources and spectrum in return for payoffs to venal politicians," Rajan said in Mumbai on Monday. "By killing transparency and competition, crony capitalism is harmful to free enterprise, opportunity, and economic growth. And by substituting special interests for the public interest, it is harmful to democratic expression."
Rajan's frontal attack is clearly meant as a prod to India's new Prime Minister Narendra Modi. During this spring's elections, Modi pledged to improve life for the more than two-thirds of India's 1.2 billion people eating less than minimum government targets. Two weeks ago, his government blocked part of a World Trade Organisation trade deal in order to protect India's ability to expand a food-subsidy programme. Yet, as Rajan rightly points out, such unwieldy schemes tend to enrich middlemen at the expense of the hungry.
Common idea
Rajan's solution is to transfer aid money directly to the poor for food and other necessities. While at the IMF between 2003 and 2006, Rajan saw both Indonesia and Mexico successfully experiment with this now-common idea. By contrast, old-fashioned subsidy programmes such as India's have only deepened inequality and put pressure on the national balance sheet. Seeing the rich get richer while so many Indians see their lives stagnate is testing the credibility of the country's vibrant democracy. "One of the greatest dangers to the growth of developing countries is the middle-income trap, where crony capitalism creates oligarchies that slow down growth," Rajan said. "To avoid this trap, and to strengthen the independent democracy our leaders won for us 67 years ago, we have to improve public services, especially those targeted at the poor."
Rajan's cash transfers are far more WTO-friendly than India's current system of subsidies. They're also more efficient: Massive government intervention has resulted in huge food stockpiles that often rot instead of going to the poor. Modi knows this, or he should. He's also the first Indian leader in years with enough charisma and seats in parliament to take on the corrupt patron-client political system.
Will he? Modi, who is thought to be personally incorruptible, has nevertheless been accused of favouring big businessmen in Gujarat, where he served as chief minister for more than a decade. If his sky-high approval ratings start to dip, it's an open question whether his Bharatiya Janata Party will let him dismantle a giant rent-seeking machine that ensures its survival.
The truth is that we are years away from knowing if Modi is the moderniser he claims. Rajan, though, can play a key role in keeping the prime minister on the right track. The central bank governor is proving himself to be an adept politician; on Monday he was careful to praise Modi's plan to create bank accounts for the poor — into which aid cash can be transferred — even while implicitly criticising the government's decision to kill the WTO deal. If Rajan can make a dent in the billionaire problem he's long lamented, he may just make India — and the world — a more vibrant place.

Asked by Mack_M_DJS to Stephen on 14 Mar 2017.
I can't remember the specific reason . . . I just know it is something that I have always loved . . . probably due to growing up with Star Wars . . .
I was six years old and my dad got a computer game free with a magazine… It was all about the planets and the spaceships we'd sent to explore them and I was absolutely hooked. I remember in Year 1 knowing all the names of the moons and planets and being soaking in every documentary and book I could get my hands on.
Could you develop a plane to go into space properly, unlike the u-2 which only goes to the edge of space.

Show parent task name in sub-task notifications.
We often use sub-tasks to just list steps in a common process like: proofread article, make final revisions, review video, etc.
When notifications for these sub-tasks come up there isn't any detail about the parent task, so it's hard to understand context. This forces us to rename all sub-tasks with redundant info from the parent task - otherwise staff have to click every single notification just to determine context. I'm hoping you can change it so notifications include a reference to the parent task to avoid this redundancy.

Can Gaming Software Help Support Vision Therapy?
AmblyoPlay is wellness software that gamifies vision exercises for children.

Interactive gaming software launching today as a wellness product aims to engage children in vision therapy for amblyopia (lazy eye), mild strabismus (crossed or turned eye) or convergence insufficiency (eyes unable to focus together). AmblyoPlay, developed by Smart Optometry, "complements in-office vision therapy and increases at-home vision therapy participation through gamification," explained Žan Menart, CEO of AmblyoPlay.
"Through Smart Optometry's network of doctors, a common problem communicated to us from presentation to presentation and from one country to another was that although children could be diagnosed, and training could be developed, kids wouldn't do the traditional vision therapy exercises because they were not fun," Menart told MD+DI. "With that feedback, we decided to alter our program to address the unique needs of children. We knew that if we wanted children to engage, we had to make it fun and exciting—leading to the interactive gaming software we have today."
Menart said that AmblyoPlay was developed in conjunction with doctors who have first-hand experience treating these conditions. "Through our research and their input, we were able to develop AmblyoPlay to target children," he said. "AmblyoPlay does not replace the guidance provided by a healthcare professional. Rather, it is intended to serve as another tool to improve visual function of patients and improve their quality of life."
Children can "play" AmblyoPlay at home on Windows or Mac computers, Android tablets, or iPads while wearing red-and-blue-lensed glasses during two 15-minute sessions per day. They are rewarded with tokens that can be exchanged for physical awards that are sent to their home.
"Depending on the issue, patients can observe several different outcomes," Menart explained. "The most standard is clearer and sharper image as the lazy eye improves. This is a consequence of better eye-brain connection. When we are solving convergence insufficiency, the improvement can be observed through lesser eye strain when reading or writing and in general easier conducting of any near tasks. With strabismus, we can see the improvement even with plain sight: the eye turn decreases or disappears completely. Of course, there are many different symptoms that can occur and AmblyoPlay can help with (i.e. double vision etc.)."
When asked whether AmblyoPlay has been cleared or approved by FDA or other regulators, Menart said that it "is a wellness software that only assists and guides the user through sets of exercises. As such, we are not a medical device, and thus we are not currently seeking FDA approval. As we expand upon the solution in the future, we definitely will be seeking FDA approval if we start adding more medical elements to the software."
There are three subscription options for accessing AmblyoPlay – three months, six months, or a year, depending upon the needs of the user. Parents can monitor their child's progress through AmblyoPlay's automated progression tracker and share the results with their child's doctor, the company reported in a news release.
In terms of seeking reimbursement through insurance, Menart said that the company is "actively looking to obtain reimbursement through insurance, but we have no ETA on the timeline. We do already have deals in place in Europe, but in the U.S., we are just getting started. With our competitive price-point, we believe that even without reimbursement our solution is very affordable." A three-month subscription for AmblyoPlay starts at $110.

Bamboo Bikes for the People
By Staff Report | March 11, 2009
Craig Calfee, an elite bicycle designer, makes high quality, fully functional bicycles out of bamboo that sell for over $2,000 in the United States.
Now, Calfee has launched Bamboosero Bikes, which will bring a priced-down version of his eco-friendly bicycles to rural communities in sub-Saharan Africa, according to industry journal Bicycle Retailer.
Most bikes in Africa are cheaply made imports from China and India.
Calfee has designed a cargo bike made from locally grown bamboo that is more appropriate for heavy loads and bumpy roads than imported bikes.
The bikes, which are said to be fully sustainable and require no power tools to make, are intended to to give rural Africans better transport options, and to foster a bike-building cottage industry.

| Yale sees increase in transfer students

Yale sees increase in transfer students
Maia Hirschler 2:34 am, Sep 13, 2013
For the past few weeks, the 1,360 members of the class of 2017 have been transitioning into life at Yale. But a smaller group is experiencing a different kind of transition to the University — this year's group of transfer students.
Twenty-six transfer students enrolled at Yale this fall, an increase from 21 last year and 22 in the 2011–'12 academic year. The TroCo program, which pairs new transfer students with returning ones, has expanded this year to include a two-day orientation program during Camp Yale.
"When I transferred here, we did have transfer counselors, but we didn't have any sort of orientation, kind of just a free-for-all, so it was pretty difficult to figure out how to register for classes," said Chelsea Messinger '15, a co-head of the TroCo program.
The TroCos, who helped organize the new orientation, decided to expand the resources offered to new transfer students by building from their own experiences coming to Yale after having already attended a different college, Messinger said. She said she and fellow students felt as though they wanted more structured guidance upon arriving on campus.
The transfer student admission rate for the 2012–'13 academic year was 2.7 percent, with 970 applicants.
The orientation program included a scavenger hunt, a session on class registration, a workshop on science requirements and meetings with various deans.
Lindsay Falkenberg '15, a new transfer from Emory University, said the orientation was helpful because adjusting to aspects of life specific to Yale, such as shopping period, was "tricky."
"It's interesting when you're a transfer student because you're not a freshman," she said. "You know how to do college, but you don't know how to do college here."
TroCo Cory Myers '15 said immediately bonding with a group of students in a similar situation as him helped make adjusting to the University easier.
Ezriel Gelbfish '16, who transferred to Yale this fall from Yeshiva University, said he has found Yale students to be welcoming, though transfer students from last year told him integrating into life at Yale can be difficult. He added that the structures in place, such as the orientation, TroCos and the residential college system, have made the transition easy.
The transfer students also have an opportunity to attend FOCUS, a community service preorientation program for sophomores and transfer students that pairs small groups of students with local nonprofit organizations.
Of the 26 transfer students, 20 are male and six are female.


In Israel, citizenship is automatically acquired if you can convince the Ministry of the Interior that your mother was/is Jewish. Without that qualification, citizenship or even permanent residency is very difficult to obtain. Israel is a First World country that you can walk to from Africa, and many people have done so, crossing the border, often bringing with them small children. Other families come to Israel legally but overstay their tourist visas. Their children are entitled to go to school, even if the parents risk deportation, but when they reach the age of eighteen they are often forced to leave.
Many of these children study at the (K-12) Bialik-Rogozin School, in south Tel Aviv, the subject of a film called "Strangers No More", which won an Academy Award for best documentary in 2011. Watch the trailer about this school, where children from nearly fifty countries study in Hebrew and learn to become Israelis, to take part in a future that will probably not be theirs.
Because of the way citizenship is determined in Israel, the chance of a DREAM Act being enacted here is very small. The just thing to do would be to enable these children to serve in the army when they finish high school, at the end of which service they would be granted permanent residency. This is probably not going to happen.
If you know Hebrew, close your eyes and LISTEN to these children sing in perfect, unaccented Hebrew ... and ask yourself if they are really different from other Israelis in anything that matters.
If you want to help, write to me at dskatz@post.tau.ac.il and I can put you in touch with the school.

The Dinocalypse Trilogy is Evil Hat's first move into fiction, written by Chuck Wendig, and set in the wild-and-crazy early-20th-Century pulp universe of Spirit of the Century. In it we follow the adventures of six heroes, Centurions of the Century Club (including one talking ape!), as they take on a world-spanning invasion of psychic dinosaurs from beyond time itself.
If that doesn't hook you right there, you may be lost to us.
The first novel of the trilogy, Dinocalypse Now, is written and is in the process of getting edited, laid out, and turned into e-books of various formats. The next two novels, Beyond Dinocalypse and Dinocalypse Forever, need your help.
With fiction being new territory for us, we need to find an audience for it first. We think we may have one thanks to the other things we've done over the past six years, but we don't know it. To rally the troops, and to get our fans and friends a good deal on the books, we're launching a kickstarter on March 20th, not for the first novel—though that's part of the backer rewards package—but for the whole kit'n'kaboodle, the entire trilogy.
We're aiming to hit success right between the eyes with this push into fiction. With the support of our fans, Dinocalypse may be just the beginning for Evil Hat and its fiction line, not just for the Spirit of the Century universe, but for other worlds as well. We're already working on an anthology of Don't Rest Your Head fiction, featuring authors such as Harry Connolly, C. E. Murphy, and Robin Laws, and we have our eye on other potential books and authors as well. The success of the Dinocalypse kickstarter will go a long way to helping us figure out how far to allow our ambitions to take us.
We hope to find you fighting alongside us as we face down the perils of publishing and emerge victorious!
Chuck Wendig's novel Double Dead hit shelves in November, 2011. His second novel, Blackbirds, is already getting rave reviews prior to its publication in April of this year. Its sequel, Mockingbird,publishes at the end of 2012.
He, along with writing partner Lance Weiler, is an alum of the Sundance Film Festival Screenwriter's Lab (2010). Their short film, Pandemic, showed at the Sundance Film Festival 2011, and their feature filmHiM is in development with producers Ted Hope and Anne Carey. Together they co-wrote the digital transmedia drama Collapsus, which was nominated for an International Digital Emmy and a Games 4 Change award.
Chuck has contributed over two million words to the game industry, and was the developer of the popular Hunter: The Vigil game line (White Wolf Game Studios / CCP). He is a frequent contributor toThe Escapist, writing about games and pop culture.
He currently lives in Pennsylvania with wife, dog, and newborn son. You can find him at his website,terribleminds.com, where he is busy talking about storytelling and the art and craft of writing. You can find his writing advice collected in e-books such as Confessions of a Freelance Penmonkey and 500 Ways to be a Better Writer.
So, I have finished "Dinocalypse Now" and "Beyond Dinocalypse" with their carefree, breezy pulp action and cheezy dialogue, "Foul Mutineers!" I'm am so ready for book three. What's the3 status fellows?
If you were one of the original backers, see the Kickstarter update from 11/4 where we released the near-ready version (hoping to weed out those last few typos) to backers. If not, have no fear, we'll be moving into printing (and PDF release) of Dinocalypse Forever January 2015!

I figured it must be a permission problem, but the regular user does have read access to /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt and the files in /etc/pki/nssdb
Curl is using the same cert for both users:
> curl-config --ca
/etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt

Any ideas?

A: Turns out my LD_LIBRARY_PATH was causing curl to load some libraries that resulted in broken dependency.
After unsetting LD_LIBRARY_PATH it all works fine.

Development of the High-Power, Low-Emission Engine for the "Honda S2000"
Published March 06, 2000 by SAE International in United States
Event: SAE 2000 World Congress
The two liter DOHC-VTEC engine developed for the Honda S2000 produces 179kW (240HP, which is 120HP per liter). It is the highest output power among all naturally aspirated two liter engines ever mass-produced. It also achieves an exhaust emission level within National LEV standards. The new engine utilizes a redesigned VTEC cylinder head, in which MIM (metal injection molding) rocker arms are used. The new cylinder block with a ladder frame structure for its lower part, a newly developed camshaft drive chain and gear system and a metal honeycomb catalyst with an air pump start-up system are also utilized.

After having such a busy past few weeks, the blog updates inevitably had to suffer. There have been far too many things going on (both cows calving, piglets weaned/sold etc.) as well as our popular holiday let not to mention the full-time day job and there are only so many hours in the day.
It's definitely time for some updates on the other aspects of life on our North Pennines smallholding.
Our 2 egg laying hens are doing us proud lately with regular egg production and also looking pretty good while they stroll leisurely around the place as if they owned it.
For the record, they are named Birdy and Babs after female singers. Babs (on the right in the photo) is a Columbine and she lays blue eggs with an occasional double-yokers for good measure.
The current pride and joy is the middle raised bed which this year holds a selection of vegetables, all of which seem to be doing very well.
Last year was not such a good year for the fruit trees, mostly I think because we have a large number of jackdaws and other birds in the general area who must have been hungry!
Hopefully I can get more organised this year and protect the fruit before the birds start attacking them.
As for the pears, it might not seem like much to others but last year we had no sign of any pears. This year one of the two trees actually has some fruit – although to be honest, I shouldn't use the term "some fruit" when there's only a single pear!

ARTS E CULTURE
Il Parco Torlonia
The park is situated on a triangular plot of flat land between via Roma and Piazza della Repubblica; in the area which is now known as Torlonia Park, the inhabitants of Avezzano used to leave their wheat to dry. The Park was adorned with trees and bushes as well as a circular fountain by Prince Alessandro Torlonia and his wife at the end of the 19th century, as a present to the citizens of Avezzano. In exchange, the citizens erected a bronze bust in the south corner of the Park in honour of Prince Alessandro Torlonia. In this park, following the earthquake of 13th January 1915, the survivors from Avezzano.
Conceria e centro visite del Capriolo
The ancient tannery, immediately outside the town, still has the baths that were used for tanning purposes with their system of water channels and tanks as well as the premises where the skins were hung up to dry; today it hosts the Sirente Velino Roe-deer Visitor centre which can be accessed from a beautiful park rich with age-old springs and plants.
Case bottega
In both the square and on the road that leads up to the tower, these charming workshops, with their stone counters, are the proof that the ancient craftsmen's tradition of this hamlet, especially as regards shoemakers, is linked to the nearby leather tannery.
Corpo di guardia e museo della memoria
Next to the Gate of Saints, underneath the town clock tower, there is a large area that was probably used as a guard-house yet which, over the course of the centuries, has become a wine cellar and a home; today it hosts a wonderful photography exhibition of both the city of L'Aquila by photographer Roberto Grillo and of Fontecchio with a small touching grotto that re-proposes the dramatic images of the 2009 earthquake. Here there is a collection of Roman and Medieval decorations and epigraphs, discovered during the course of the excavations in the town and the surrounding areas.
Forno municipale
The ancient communal oven, which is still operational, has been used by generations of women to bake their bread. A beautiful double mullioned Medieval window towers above the arched entrance to the square.
I sentieri attorno al paese
There is a dense network of paths that allows the visitor to travel far and wide throughout the area surrounding the town, until reaching the enchanting hamlet of Bominaco with its churches, until the "Pagliare" plateau with its woodlands and its sparsely spread houses, until the Stiffe Caves along the valley bottom travelling along the Via di Celestine V; most of the paths have been restored thanks to the "Adotta un sentiero" (Adopt a Path) project, carried out by ILEX, by the Municipality and by the local associations and entities with the support of GAL Gran Sasso Velino.
Although it is still under construction, the Fontecchio botanical garden, situated on a sunny slope at the foot of the town, offers splendid blossoms of local perennial and herbaceous, aromatic and officinal plants.
This majestically dominates the antique access to the town from the "Via de L'Aquila" and it displays an overlapping of styles and elements that date back from the massive square tower of Roman origin which reach up to the Medieval period and then to the 16th and17th centuries.
Fontana delle 99 Cannelle
The Fountain of the 99 Spouts, also known as the Rivera Fountain, is one of the most famous and most important monuments in L'Aquila; it was one of the first to be restored after the 2009 earthquake. Situated in the Rivera area, one of the oldest districts of the historic city centre, close to the river Aterno. The fountain consists of 93 stone mascheron ornaments together with six single spouts from which an abundant quantity of water flows. According to the tradition, the spouts represent the 93 castles that, in the 13th century, took part in the foundation of the city. The fountain, considered to be one of the first civic monuments of L'Aquila and an exaltation of its autonomous origins, was erected according to the project drawings of the architect Tancredi of Pentima in 1272, only a few years after the second foundation of the city, as can be seen on the commemorative plaque on the wall in front of the entrance gate. In any case, Tancredi of Pentima's intervention was probably limited to the sole creation of the wall situated in front of the entrance. On the other hand, some scholars believe that the present appearance of the fountain dates back entirely to the 15th century. What is certain is that the area that today is called "della Rivera", corresponds to an ancient castle called Acquili, from which the name of the city derives and which, at the time of its foundation, represented a strategic area due to the abundance of water and the countless artisanal activities which had becom.
La Fontana del Rognone
The more than 100 year old Rognone fountain dates back to 1881. The large bath-drinking trough, originally positioned obliquely with respects to the fountain itself, was moved to its current position in the early 1950s.
Trees have always played an important role in symbology, legends and daily language, they are often found in unusual places for the species to which they belong. The plant heritage represented by monumental trees is characterised by three orders of value: naturalistic value, the monumental trees are an expression of the environment and of the climatic and geographic characteristics; the artistic value, monumental trees are natural works of art and finally the cultural value, monumental trees are historical evidence. By means of decree n.72 dated 14.09.2012 and they have been declared "natural monuments" for their landscape, naturalistic and/or historic value; 370 plants of significant importance can be found within the Abruzzo region. Seven trees with 3 different wood types have been identified also within the municipality of Rocca di Mezzo (Fagus sylvatica L. - Populus nigra L. - Salix caprea L.), which correspond to the requirements of monumental trees. For further information on this topic, it is possible to consult the book by Caterina Artese "Alberi Monumentali d'Abruzzo" (Monumental Trees in Abruzzo) available at the Town Hall.
Castello di Rovere
Rovere, hamlet of Rocca di Mezzo, dating back to ancient times, still has the remains of its castle, the foundation date of which is unknown, situated on a rocky spur in the shape of a triangular fortress with circular towers on its top. It is possible to visit the Archaeological Museum with artefacts that have been discovered in the excavations (ceramic crockery, metallic artefacts such as nails, zips, hinges, glass material, Renaissance majolica, etc.). The most important artefacts are kept within the Science Antiquity Department of the "G. D'Annunzio" University in Chieti.
Cratere meteoritico
The crater is situated on the Sirente Plain between Secinaro and Rocca di Mezzo and it can easily be reached from the road. The largest crater has raised edges, it is egg-shaped it hosts a lake, while in the North-West area there are several circular hollows caused by the fall of fragments produced during the impact with the atmosphere. Radiocarbon dating has made it possible to estimate the date of the impact to have been around 421 A.D. +/- 40 years. Moreover, the core samples obtained have not highlighted the classic stratigraphic overlapping but a homogeneous sample. However further studies are necessary to confirm this discovery.
La Neviera del Sirente
This permanent snow-house is situated at 2,030 m. at the foot of the dolomitic slope of the Mount Sirente in an area which is not exposed to direct sunlight, represents an interesting destination for trekking enthusiasts that can be easily reached by the Sirente chalet, near to Secinaro. The freezing industry was, until last century, one of the main sources of wealth for the town together with the harvesting of wood in the age-old beech forests. Ancient techniques allowed the preparation and transport of blocks of ice to distant locations such as Rome and Foggia, where rich people already in ancient Roman times, could afford the precious goods to be used both for therapeutic purposes and for food preparation and preservation. Several documents visible on the Town Hall website show tenders that are carried out every year.


Following The Brinkster's tip off yesterday, I headed up to the van outside Costcutter to pick up my free Smartwater kit.
From my conversation with the man handing out the kits, the van's presence hadn't been well promoted which was a shame. He asked how I knew that they were going to be in Worcester Park, but I didn't have the energy to explain who The Brinkster was so I just mumbled something vague about the internet.
Anyway, pictured for those who are interested is the Smartwater kit. The bad news is that Mrs Worcester Park got to it first and mistook it for a new line of mascara. The good news is that should an eyelash fall out soon, we have a high chance of getting it returned.
Those of you who read my last blog entry and comments will know that I have managed to blag a discount from Silks restaurant in return for a review on this blog. James from Silks has now emailed me - so thankfully nobody else will be able to claim the Worcester Park blog discount on my behalf. I shall check it out some time in the next few weeks, and of course you can read here how the meal goes.
Now, I must point out that the voice of Worcester Park has no price and cannot be bought by the offer of freebies or discounts. I resent the suggestion that this blog is becoming nothing more than a vehicle for product placement and the soliciting of personal kickbacks. That's vehicle in the generic sense, not the kind of Jaguar or Lexus vehicle that you may find at Evans Autos, 674 London Road Cheam.
A pint of the dark stuff?

Q: Why is Outlook 2010 showing the "To Address" in the navigation pane? This one is difficult to explain... In the Outlook 2010 navigation pane I arrange my email by Date with the newest on the top. However each email preview,along with the subject, shows the "To" address instead of the "From" address.
This means that I have an inbox where all emails have the same address on them, my own, instead of the person who sent me the email.

A: Right click on one of the fields and click on FIELD CHOOSER. Then simply drag the TO field away and drag in the FROM field.

This is a traditional thangka painting of the Karma Gadri style, which was especially commissioned by Tashi Mannox on the rarely depicted great calligrapher and scholar Thönmi Sambhota.
Sambhota is a historical figure responsible for developing the foundation of the Tibetan writing systems in the seventh century A.D, which form the basis of the Tibetan language today.
This thangka features many historical references to Thönmi Sambhota, such as rainbow beams emanating from him that display two golden disks marked with the letter ཨ, the essential and last letter of the Tibetan alphabet.
On the left is ཨ in the classical Uchen script and on the right is the same letter ཨ in the Umed class of scripts. These represent the two main streams of script styles he created and still in use to the present day.
Seen held in his lap, is a tablet inscribed with a rendition of a Mani mantra, oṃ maṇipadme hūṃ, which was presented to King Songtsen Gampo as the first sample Sambhota created of the Tibetan Uchen script.
The thangka painter Sahil Bhopal, of Flying Whale Art studio in India, entrusted Tashi to personally add the two principle letters ཨ to the golden disks, as well as the Mani mantra within the thangka.

ORDER DENYING WITHOUT PREJUDICE PLAINTIFFS' MOTION FOR ATTORNEY'S FEES AND COSTS RE: DKT. NO. 108
HOWARD R. LLOYD UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE.
Jim Erickson is a professional photographer who makes his living by licensing his photographs through his company, Erickson Productions, Inc. Mr. Erickson and Erickson Productions, Inc. will be referred to collectively here as "Erickson."
Erickson sued Kraig R. Kast for copyright infringement, claiming that he copied several of Erickson's photos and used them without permission on the website for Kast's business, Atherton Trust. Erickson asserted claims for direct copyright infringement, as well as for contributory and vicarious copyright infringement. Kast did not dispute that Erickson's photos were contained on a version of Atherton Trust's website. However, he maintained that the photos were merely "placeholders" for the licensed photos that he ultimately intended to include on the site. His chief contention was that the Atherton Trust website was designed by a third-party, Only Websites, Inc. (Only Websites), and that he had no knowledge of or control over any infringing use of Erickson's photos.
Most of Kast's affirmative defenses were disposed of, either on Erickson's motion to strike or their subsequent motion for summary judgment. However, Kast's "Innocent Infringement" defense was allowed to stand to the extent that his mental state pertained to the issue of remedies.
Following a three-day trial, [1] the jury rendered a verdict for Erickson as to each of the photos in question. Although the jury did not find that Kast directly infringed the photos, they determined that he was liable for vicarious and contributory infringement and, further, that the infringement was willful. The jury awarded Erickson the maximum $450, 000 in statutory damages, and judgment was entered accordingly. The matter is on appeal.[2]
Pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 505, Erickson moves for an award of attorney's fees. Kast opposes the motion. No one requested a hearing on this matter, and the court finds that no oral argument is necessary. Civ. L.R. 7-1(b). Upon consideration of the moving and responding papers, this court denies the motion without prejudice.
Section 505 of the Copyright Act permits a district court to "award a reasonable attorney's fee to the prevailing party as part of the costs." 17 U.S.C. § 505.[3] An award of attorney's fees is a matter of the court's discretion. Fogerty v. Fantasy, Inc., 510 U.S. 517, 533 (1994). And, Section 505 "grants courts wide latitude to award attorney's fees based on the totality of circumstances in a case." Kirtsaeng v. John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 136 S.Ct. 1979, 1985 (2016). "'In deciding whether to award fees under the Copyright Act, the district court should consider, among other things: the degree of success obtained on the claim; frivolousness; motivation; objective reasonableness of factual and legal arguments; and need for compensation and deterrence.'" VMG Salsoul, LLC v. Ciccone, ___F.3d ___, Nos. 13-57104, 14-55837, 2016 WL 3090780, at *13 (9th Cir., June 2, 2016) (quoting Maljack Prods., Inc. v. GoodTimes Home Video Corp., 81 F.3d 881, 889 (9th Cir. 1996)). Courts in the Ninth Circuit also consider "whether the chilling effect of attorney's fees may be too great or impose an inequitable burden on an impecunious plaintiff." Ets-Hokin v. Skyy Spirits, Inc., 323 F.3d 763, 766 (9th Cir. 2003).
Additionally, courts should give substantial weight to the objective reasonableness of the losing party's position. Kirtsaeng, 136 S.Ct. at 1983. Nevertheless, "objective reasonableness can be only an important factor in assessing fee applications---not the controlling one." Id. at 1988. "That means in any given case a court may award fees even though the losing party offered reasonable arguments (or, conversely, deny fees even though the losing party made unreasonable ones)." Id. "Although objective reasonableness carries significant weight, courts must view all the circumstances of a case on their own terms, in light of the Copyright Act's essential goals." Id. at 1989.
These guideposts may be used "so long as such factors are faithful to the purposes of the Copyright Act and are applied to prevailing plaintiffs and defendants in an evenhanded manner." Fogerty, 517 U.S. at 534 n.19. "Faithfulness to the purposes of the Copyright Act is, therefore, the pivotal criterion." Fantasy, Inc. v. Fogerty, 94 F.3d 553, 558 (9th Cir. 1996). "The primary objective of the Copyright Act is to encourage the production of original literary, artistic, and musical expression for the good of the public." Fogerty, 510 U.S. at 524.
The degree of success obtained on the claim
Although Erickson did not succeed on the direct infringement theory, the jury found in Erickson's favor on the vicarious and contributory infringement claims, concluded that the infringement was willful, and awarded the maximum statutory damages. Erickson therefore obtained substantial success. Moreover, while willful infringement, in itself, does not compel an award of fees, it is an important factor favoring such an award. Historical Research v. Cabral, 80 F.3d 377, 379 (9th Cir. 1996).
Frivolousness; motivation; objective reasonableness of factual and legal arguments
         There was no dispute that Erickson is the owner of valid copyrights in the subject photos and that the photos were used without permission on Kast's website. Erickson's claims therefore were not frivolous, and this court finds no evidence that this lawsuit was motivated by bad faith. Nor was Erickson's infringement claim objectively unreasonable. This court denied both sides' motions for summary judgment re infringement, finding that there were materially disputed facts sufficient to permit that issue to proceed to a jury.
