Known as the Cannon Street Cluster, the project comprised the sensitive conversion and refurbishment of 40-46 Cannon Street, 27 Garlick Hill and 13/14 (Marc House) and 15 Great St Thomas Apostle, London EC4. AWW has created a high quality apartment hotel from existing office space, while enhancing the existing buildings and surrounding urban context.
The scheme comprises 77 studio and one bedroom serviced apartment suites arranged over six storeys in a remodelled inner city block. AWW worked with SACO for over two and a half years to achieve planning and develop a detailed design to reimagine the intricate group of buildings as a functional, welcoming place to stay.
Primarily a refurbishment project, some new build elements have been incorporated to help realise the layout. These include constructing a five storey link building and adding an additional storey atop two of the Victorian buildings on the site. The buildings were warehouses originally and have been converted from their recent uses as offices and connected together to create this facility.
Each apartment has been designed to offer guests a comfortable yet functional environment, while preserving the integrity of the period buildings in this part of the Queen Street Conservation area, overlooked by St Paul's Cathedral. The scheme also incorporates a lounge, laundry, gym and 24hr reception to help guests make the most of their stay in the heart of the City of London. The complex creates an urban retreat in the city, where contemporary styling is matched with the trademark SACO hospitality.

Louis Tomlinson was 'uncomfortable' with One Direction hiatus
Posted by: Admin July 23, 2017	in PR Comments Off on Louis Tomlinson was 'uncomfortable' with One Direction hiatus
London, July 23 (IANS) One Directon star Louis Tomlinson was initially "uncomfortable" with the idea of band going on hiatus, but now admits it was the right thing to do.
The "Just Hold On" singer was left unsure of what to do with himself when he and his bandmates, Niall Horan, Harry Styles, and Liam Payne, decided to take a break in late 2015 to focus on their solo careers, and he has now admitted it was "difficult for (him) to accept" the decision, reports femalefirst.co.uk
"It was an uncomfortable time more than anything. We've always had a level of respect for each other in these meetings and we always said that 100 per cent honesty and openness is so important if you're going to get on as a band," he said.
"It made those situations a little bit difficult because I felt like I really was building up confidence in myself and in my place within the band and as a songwriter in the band. I could feel that potentially it was going to be a break. What was difficult was trying to understand how long that might be.
"So that process was kind of a little uncomfortable. You're asking guys who have grown up being best friends to make selfish decisions, which they should do, based on themselves. But it doesn't change the fact that it was difficult for me to accept at first," added Tomlinson .

Last February 15, 2018, I flew back to Taiwan to be with my boyfriend again. (On why we chose Taiwan of me going to Canada instead, you may read it here.) It was such an exciting day for me. Prior to the flight, I haven't seen my boyfriend for almost a year so I was very excited.
The popular and historic Italian city inspired Venice Piazza's architecture which gives a romantic ambiance.
This is perfect for the lovers and hopeless romantics alike. Without having to leave the country, this place takes you to another world and offers an unforgettable romantic experience. International dining in an Italian setting can only be experienced here in the metro.
Last January 2, I was able to finally go to this pretty place in Taguig City. I've been wanting to go here for a long time now as I'm always seeing it on my Facebook news feed. I'm curious as to what made people like this place to go to.
Last Friday, I was too sad and down that I needed to get out of the house to unwind. I wanted to go somewhere where there are lots of trees and just sit under it to read a book or just relax and breathe in some fresh air. I remembered that there's this park in Makati City called Washington Sycip Park and I haven't been there. I'm glad I have this friend who loves to go out a lot and agreed to go with me. Hello Marnie! Haha! That day we went to three parks, Legazpi Active Park then Washington Sycip Park and lastly at Ayala Triangle, and just took photos here and there. 200+ photos! No kidding. Haha!


Guidance on writing an ISIS Collaborative R&D programme proposal. Requests can be made at any time and will be considered outside the normal ISIS academic peer review process.
Before writing an ICR&D proposal, please contact the Industrial Liaison Manager Dr Christopher Frost to discuss your proposal.
They can help you to decide on the most suitable instrument and the amount of time you will need, and assist in preparing the proposal.
The proposed ICR&D research programme should be described. In particular it should explain why neutron measurements are required, and how the ISIS measurements will fit within the overall research programme.
If the measurements are required very urgently, this should be highlighted in this section.
A brief description of your company (or consortium), and its activities in the UK, including the total employment, and the turnover within the UK.
The in-kind contribution that your company (or consortium) will make to the project. This should be in the form of a simple table showing each in-kind contribution which can be in staff time spent on the project, or related equipment, samples or services. For a consortium, the table should include contributions from all partners and identify the roles of each partner.
A simple time-line of key milestones for the programme.
It is appreciated that measures of economic impact are difficult, and generally contingent upon the successful outcome of a programme of research.
However, in this section we ask the industrial partner to estimate the potential economic impact the proposed research might have on their company or the UK. Such impact may be expressed in a variety of measures including reduced costs of production, increased sales, jobs, etc. Since the impact is uncertain it is the order of magnitude of the impact that is needed.
It is also appreciated that such information is highly sensitive, and ISIS will not report this figure in such a way that it can be attributed to the proposers. However, this information and the associated monitoring information supplied during and post-project may be reported by ISIS as an aggregated figure across the whole programme. Where significant impacts are achieved, ISIS will request permission for information to be used in a case study.
Participants in the ICR&D scheme will sign a Collaborative Research Agreement (CRA) with the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC), which will cover details of the in-kind contributions provided by each side of the partnership. The agreement may also include details on how IP is handled by the partnership.
An outline of the costs borne by each partner (industry, academia, ISIS) in undertaking the ICR&D should be given. Staff costs should be expressed at full economic cost (FEC). The total requested ISIS beam time should also be listed.
For an ICR&D Collaborative Research Agreement to be signed, the industrial partners must deliver an in-kind contribution at least equal to the total cost of the ISIS beam time supplied to the project.
It should be noted that no cash awards are provided under the ICR&D scheme, although travel and subsistence costs of participating academic partners will be met if requested in the proposal.
It is important that you give accurate information about the safety of the samples and the safety of the proposed experiment.
All ISIS experiments are required to complete an online Experiment Risk Assessment (ERA) before starting work to evaluate experiment and sample safety. Providing this information in advance will allow ISIS staff to ensure that your experiments can go ahead and be safe and successful. Successful proposers will be sent a link to the ERA system in advance of their experiment.
Failing to give correct safety information could delay the start of your experiments.
Proposals may be submitted at any time throughout the year to the ISIS Industrial Liaison Manager Dr Christopher Frost.

Your Court, Your Safety: A guide to getting a Family Violence Order in the ACT explains the process of going to court to apply for a Family Violence Order in the ACT.
Thank you to our colleagues at the Domestic Violence Crisis Service and the Legal Aid Domestic Violence and Personal Protection Unit for their assistance and support and to the ACT Office for Women for their support in this publication..
The Minister's Media Release, including comments from the Centre's Principal Solicitor, is in full here below.
Thanks to all who joined us for the launch.
Your Court, Your Safety provides an overview of the nature and dynamics of domestic and family violence. This guide is designed to help women recognise domestic and family violence and to know what supports are available to them.
A Family Violence Order is one of the main options women in the ACT have to respond to violence and protect their safety. Your Court, Your Safety provides a clear overview of the process of applying for a Family Violence Order and practical information about what to expect when attending court.
One of the things I hear often is the difficulty women and families have in navigating the legal system, particularly in the case of domestic and family violence where the parties involved are often stressed and not sure of what to expect.
First launched in 2012, Your Court, Your Safety has been updated to reflect recent changes to the law in the ACT. The definition of family and domestic violence has been amended to explicitly include all forms of violence—physical, sexual emotional, financial and financial violence. These amendments also improved protections for people applying for an order. A self-represented respondent can no longer cross-examine the applicant themselves in a final hearing.
The guide also provides referral information about a broad range of services in Canberra who can help people beyond legal assistance.
Women's Legal Centre Principal Solicitor, Claudia Maclean explained, "This practical information about the process and what to expect when attending court can be key to women actually being able to make the application and protect their safety. For example, once you know what time, how long you will be at court, how many times you will have to appear, what information you will need you can do things like plan transport, child care, taking time off work.
"It's also crucial that women know there is free legal assistance and specialised support over at the Court that can help you make the application. Legal Aid ACT run a Domestic Violence Unit that can help people go through the application process for a Family Violence Order and respond to an order. The Domestic Violence Crisis Service's Court Advocacy Program can provide people applying for an order with advice on the process, support in meetings with solicitors and in the court as well advocacy in court and with other agencies. The more support women have going through the process, the better that experience and the outcome will be.
"Changes to the Family Violence Act 2016 were made to better reflect our client's experiences of violence and shows them the system recognises and aims to respond. Domestic and family violence is characterised by the experience of coercion and control in a relationship, not just one form of violence. It's important that we skill up our whole community to recognise unhealthy and dangerous signs in relationships.
The Women's Legal Centre Board warmly invites you to join the Centre for our 16/17 Annual General Meeting.
The AGM will include the following agenda items; Tabling of minutes of previous Annual General Meeting held on 25 November 2016 (attached); Tabling of the Chair's Report on the activities of the Association, the Audited Statement of Accounts and Auditor's Report.
Please RSVP to agarside@womenslegalact.org by Monday 30 October.
The meeting will also elect the Centre's Board. If you would like to consider nominating for the Board, please contact the Centre's Executive Director role on 02 6257 4377 or erosenman@womenslegalact.org in the first instance to discuss the role.
If you have not yet renewed your membership for 2017/18, you will find a membership renewal form on the membership page of our website. Please complete this form and return it to us at agarside@womenslegalact.org. This form and membership payment must be received by COB Monday 30 October 2017.
The Women's Legal Centre ACT today launched its new specialist Domestic Violence Program.
The program was launched by the Commonwealth Attorney-General, the Hon, George Brandis QC. The Centre was also joined by the Deputy Chief Minister of the ACT and Minister for the Prevention of Domestic and Family Violence, Yvette Berry to mark the occasion.
The specialist program provides intensive and ongoing legal advice and representation to women experiencing violence. The program is focussed on providing support to women post-crisis. The Centre's specialist staff provide legal advice and representation to women primarily in relation to family law matters, including support to reach equitable property settlements and safe arrangements for children.
The program was funded as a pilot service under the Commonwealth Government's Women's Safety Package. The Centre welcomed the Commonwealth Government's recent announcement that this funding will be extended to 30 June 2019.
The launch was also addressed by Jo Wood, the newly appointed ACT Coordinator-General for Family Safety and Sarah Avery, the President of the Law Society of the ACT.
The launch was attended by many representatives of community services, legal assistance services, advocates, ACT and Commonwealth government representatives and practitioners from the legal profession in Canberra. The Centre was also pleased to be joined by a number of newly elected Members of the Legislative Assembly.
For assistance please phone the Centre on 02 6257 4377.
The Women's Legal Centre's Aboriginal Legal Liaison, Teletha Elemes was named the Canberra & District Aboriginal Community Sector Worker of the Year at the NAIDOC Ball.
The Canberra & District Aboriginal Community Sector Worker of the Year is supported by Bank Australia and the ACT Council of Social Services.
Teletha Elemes has worked with the Centre for the last four years. She has worked with the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Women's Program and has recently been appointed as the Aboriginal Legal Liaison in the Centre's new Domestic Violence Program.
Ms Elemes was recognised for her responsive, empathetic and assured support to Aboriginal women in Canberra and the region.
Teletha is a sensitive and skilled advocate. She provides information, support and advocacy to individual women and has assisted a high number of Aboriginal women to engage with the justice system to support better outcomes for themselves, their families and their communities. Teletha will now be working in the Centre's Domestic Violence Program to support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women to get the information and support they need from legal assistance services.
Since being at the Centre, Teletha has also developed a 10 week community education program, Knowing Your Rights. Knowing Your Rights was developed in consultation with Aboriginal women and service providers in Canberra and the surrounding region. It is designed to empower Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women and educate them about their legal rights and legal processes including family law, domestic violence, consumer rights and receiving government services. Teletha has presented the Program with young Aboriginal women and older women across Canberra and the region.
Teletha is a highly valued member of the team and the Centre congratulates her on such a well-deserved award.
For more information, please contact Elena Rosenman, Executive Director on 02 6257 4377 or erosenman@womenslegalact.org.
Canberra lawyers will rally on Wednesday 17 May to call on the Federal Government to reverse dramatic funding cuts to community legal centres and ensure they can meet the needs of Canberrans who need legal help.
The rally will start at 8am on Wednesday 17 May at the Community Legal Centre Hub at 21 Barry Dr, Turner and is scheduled to end at 8:45am at the ACT Supreme Court.
Community Legal Centres are funded by the Federal and ACT Governments, but Commonwealth contribution to funding to community legal centres in Canberra is due to plummet by almost 30% in July 2017. The looming crisis in community legal centre funding in Canberra will be felt by those people who need the support the most.
In Canberra, the Women's Legal Centre, the Care Consumer Law Centre, Canberra Community Law and the Tenants' Union provide crucial support to some of the most vulnerable people in our community. They provide legal assistance to people who would otherwise go without. Together, these services provided over 6000 pieces of advice and took on over 500 cases over the last 12 months.
Almost half of women working in media have report experiencing intimidation, abuse or sexual harassment in the course of their work.
Within the legal profession, 25 percent of women will face sexual harassment, 40 percent will experience discrimination. Retention rates for women lawyers are alarmingly low.
Despite the high incidence of sexual harassment in many professions, the number of formal complaints remain largely static.
The Women's Legal Centre will be hosting a panel on Thursday 19 May 2016, as part of Law Week 2016.
Chaired by former Fair Work Commissioner, Barbara Deegan, this panel will reflect on current issues and what affects women's decisions to complain when working in small, professional communities such as law and media. Emma Macdonald, senior reporter for The Canberra Times and representative of Women in Media will discuss recent research and reform in the media profession. She will be joined by Kavina Mistry, President of the Young Lawyers Association and Belinda Barnard, Human Rights and Discrimination Law Policy Adviser at the ACT Human Rights Commission to discuss motivators for organisational change in the absence of complaint, with a view to supporting improved responses to sexual harassment and discrimination within the legal profession.
Tonight's budget has failed to reverse dramatic funding cuts to community legal centres projected to commence in July 2017.
Community Legal Centres are funded by the Federal and ACT Governments, but Commonwealth contribution to funding to community legal centres in Canberra is due to plummet by almost 30% in July 2017. Canberra's four Community Legal Centres have expressed disappointment these cuts were not reversed in tonight's budget.


Tesoro is a producer of premium porcelain, ceramic, stone, and glass tile. Based in Palm City, Florida, they offer one of the most prestigious tile collections in the industry. If you're looking for some truly spectacular tile - especially if you want an intricate pattern – Tesoro can provide you with some of the finest materials to get the job done.
Tesoro's Florida-based facility has an inventory of over 14 million square feet. As you can imagine, that means they offer a whole lot of variety - in style, material, and even size and shape. In their collection you can find just about any color or quality tile you're looking for, and each type of tile comes in a variety of sizes and shapes, making it supremely easy to shape your own mosaic floor, or even just accommodate strangely shaped spaces or corners.
While the true art of mosaic involves careful laying and planning of each and every tile, Tesoro offers a more modern alternative to creating beautiful displays of tiny tiles. Their smallest tiles, rather than being available individually, can be purchased in one foot square sheets of patterned tile that can be applied and installed directly to a wall as an accent or backsplash. This takes a lot of the effort out of mosaic-making without losing any of the subtly varied beauty, turning sophisticated stone and ceramic tile walls into a DIY weekend project.
Tesoro's tiles are some of the best in the business, from very basic to the most premium level stone tile. Offering real, chiseled, brushed, and hand-honed travertine and cream marfil, Tesoro has some of the most desirable materials in high end design. But they also have more entry level styles, especially porcelain or ceramic renditions of styles meant to echo their natural stone counterparts. So even if you don't think you can afford a natural stone floor, Tesoro makes it easy to find a middle ground, with affordable, durable materials that mimic natural stone at a much lower cost.

Cairo's 'mother of Egyptian museums' set for revamp
Aidan Lewis
CAIRO (Reuters) - Egypt on Sunday launched a revamp of the Egyptian Museum, promising to preserve and enhance the storied site even as it loses its most famous collection.

Located in the heart of Cairo on Tahrir Square, the Egyptian Museum has long been the foremost home for the country's bounteous collection of antiquities.
But it will soon lose some of the treasure from King Tutankhamun's tomb to the Grand Egyptian Museum, due to open next year next to the Giza pyramids, while a collection of royal mummies is being transferred to another new site in Cairo, the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization.
The initial restructuring of the Egyptian Museum will include the redisplay of several galleries near the entrance and the relocation of the Tanis Royal Tombs to the space vacated by the Tutankhamun collection.
Financed by 3.1 million euros of EU funding and backed by a consortium of five European museums including the British Museum and the Louvre, the project will also develop a long-term vision for the museum and, officials hope, allow it to win a listing as a UNESCO world heritage site.
Egyptian Antiquities Minister Khaled El-Enany repeated a promise that new museums would not pose a threat, and that the Egyptian Museum, which houses more than 150,000 objects, should get "all the support and attention it deserves".
"The time has come to shed a new light on the museum's rich collection, upgrade its physical structure and improve its research and programing activities to reach the highest international standards," he told a launch event in the museum's garden.
The apparently casual management and display of artefacts at the Egyptian Museum surprises some visitors. In 2014 employees damaged King Tutankhamun's golden burial mask by gluing its dislodged beard back on.
But it charms many others with its old-fashioned feel.
Some display cases date back to the mid-19th century when the collections were displayed elsewhere in Cairo, and there are signs have not been changed since the museum opened in 1902, museum director Sabah Abdel Razek Saddik said.
For Egyptologists, the museum is the "mother" of Egyptian museums, said Friederike Seyfried, director of the Egyptian Museum of Berlin, which is also participating in the project.
"Nothing can be compared with the Egyptian Museum at Tahrir and this will never change," she said.
"New-build museums will be beacons of modern achievements in museology but the Egyptian museum at Tahrir reflects the history of our science."
Tourism is a key sector in Egypt's economy and a major source of foreign revenue. It has been gradually recovering from the political turmoil and security problems that followed the "Arab Spring" civil unrest of 2011.
Enany said he was aggrieved that Egypt had to confront the continued loss of antiquities through looting and smuggling.
The government is currently battling to prevent the auction of an 18th Dynasty quartzite sculpture god Amen in the likeness of King Tutankhamun scheduled for next month at Christie's in London.
"I'm deeply saddened to see every now and then some Egyptian antiquities put on sale in the international market. We have succeeded in the ministry in the last few years in repatriating thousands of objects and will continue to do so," Enany said.
He appealed to foreign ambassadors and cultural attaches, international organizations, and UNESCO "to join efforts to stop the looting, selling and illicit trafficking of antiquities".

A common, or readily comprehensible, metaphor for scientific research is shining a light, a torch perhaps, on the world, and reporting what you see. You know, a nice, neat circle of light; a concise elucidation for the sake of enlightenment. Everything around it is necessarily left in the dark, still, in this spot of light we see at least a portion of the world, bright and clear.
In this project, however, the multifaceted field of mobile museology has worked somewhat like a mirrorball. So many things to think about, so many ways to consider the interplay of museums and media, fashion and design research, change, trends, politics, practice, #museumselfies and theoretical conundrums. And I cannot rely solely on academic discourse presented in peer-reviewed journals and authorised anthologies if I want to try to get a grasp on what is going on. Every museum visit provides new food for thought. In my Twitter feed, hardly a week goes by without a new cluster of people commenting from yet another museum conference or seminar, under yet another obscure hashtag. At the same time, national and international newspapers regularly report from the digital frontiers of the museum, often setting of another round of responses and discussions in the blogosphere. All this talk about transformations, challenges, new horizons and changing paradigms. What is new is perhaps not so much that the museum institution is up for discussion, but that I, like the rest of the museum community, am constantly reminded of the ongoing debate and called to reflect on new viewpoints and perspectives. The field is not fixed.
Rather than making one clear projection, then, my research produces a dapple of lights, illuminating different aspects at once. In one article I explore a fashion perspective on institutional changes, in another, mobilisation and digital discourse. My blog posts, as my research, comprise a jumble of musings, on anything from methodological curiosity to musealisation of everyday objects. I have not been able to tear myself away from the sparkle to focus my mental torch on a single issue. But then, do I really need to?
Mirrorball methodology may not sound like sound academic practice. What of the focus, the stringency? What of relevance and rigour? Surely that could never chime with swaying to a beat in a flimsy light? And really, a dissertation should not be 'all over the place', no. But could there be an argument for trying to join the dots, rather than fixating on one spot? Could there be a place in academia for jazzing it up a little?
I believe there is. There must be, or we'd lose out on trans-disciplinary perspectives, on trajectories of thought which may not always be fully formed but nevertheless need articulation, for others to pursue or reject. Likewise, academic genres must be mouldable to fit contemporary research interests and methodologies if we are to be truly transparent about what we have actually done, rather than reconstructing research to fit into existing formats.
I'm not even talking about breaking the mould, either, just stretching it a little. And the pattern of light is not as random as it may seem at a glance. I'll do my damnedest to tie it together and make cohesive arguments, to articulate as best I can the arena which I have assembled and the matters of concern which I have uncovered, in proper academic prose. The mirrrorball image, fetching as it is (ah, the tune it invokes in your mind), and quaintly befitting reflective research in the GLAM sector, is just metaphor, not really method. But please, hum along, come along when sometimes I wander. I do believe that such an approach will prove illustrative.

I grew up on a farm in Kentucky, and was educated at Berea College and The University of Florida. I spent over three decades with Exxon and have lived in many parts of the country, but about half of my career was based in Houston, Texas. I bought my first country property, near New Ulm in Colorado County, in 1975, and have owned property in the area continuously since that time. Today I specialize in helping clients find their special place in the Texas country, whether it is a large working ranch, or just a weekend place to relax and play.
I am also active in helping my neighbors effectively market their property when they are ready to sell. For several years I owned a registered cattle ranch at Frelsburg, in Colorado County, and have developed a deep appreciation for this area and its people.

Cherry Hill Academy of Piano & Guitar!
Our son Christopher has been taking piano lessons for more than 3 years now from the Cherry Hill Academy. His teacher, Mr. Guy, always makes the lessons informative and enjoyable. Initially, Christopher just dutifully went through the motions his first several months of lessons.
But then Mr. Guy figured out that Christopher kept humming songs from the Star Wars movies and decided to try something new.Mr. Guy printed out several of the theme songs from Star Wars and Christopher became hooked on the piano.
As a result, Christopher played a Star Wars medley at the summer recital that year. Through this tactic, Mr. Guy successfully attracted Christopher to the piano and soon introduced him to other music.
Another example of the wonderful instruction from Mr. Guy and the Cherry Hill Academy is as Christopher developed his skills on the piano, it was obvious that more challenges were necessary. After a couple more lessons, Mr. Guy decided that Christopher would learn best from the "chord method". Once again, when Christopher found out he could succeed through this teaching strategy, his interest again intensified. As he improved, Mr. Guy began to give Christopher more diverse and interesting music. As a result, Christopher managed to play "Ode to Joy" at this past summer's recital and played it nearly flawlessly. Again, this success was due to Mr. Guy's ability to find just the right method for his student.
As for recitals, when Christopher was six years old, he played all of the correct notes at his performance but was so nervous he could barely be heard by the audience because he touched the keys so gently. Before this year's recital, Mr. Guy gave him the guidance to perform with much more confidence. The performance was a great success and much of that was due to Mr. Guy's instruction.
As the years have passed, our son has developed a wonderful relationship with his teacher. Whenever Mr. Guy arrives at our house, Christopher always runs right to the piano and begins playing his piece. Many times, he will play around on the piano on his own after he practices his lesson. Christopher has developed an interest in playing piano and really enjoys his sessions with Mr. Guy. We wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Guy and the Cherry Hill Academy.
Laura is a great teacher because she uses new techniques and understands my strengths and weaknesses. I've learned more about the black keys and pedals than before from Laura. She answers any questions and explains in ways I understand. She gives me tips on how to practice my timing and breaks down the piece for me. I always look forward to my lessons and love learning new things from Laura.
Great Experience With Nanci !
I have been very pleased with the piano lessons my daughter is receiving through Cherry Hill Academy. Her teacher, Nanci Wright, works well with my daughter and gives her a great selection of music to play. We are also very happy with the convenience of having the lessons in our home. The piano lessons have been a great experience.
My son takes guitar lessons from Chris for last 2 years and I cannot say enough positive things about him and his teaching. From the start, my son connected with him and I was so happy to find a teacher he could relate to. He is patient and a wonderful mentor to his students. With Chris's teaching style, my son was motivated to keep building on his skills. Chris has the unique ability to share his love of music and the guitar through his exceptional teaching.
Laura Is A Fun Piano Teacher !
Laura is a really fun piano teacher and she helps me fix my mistakes. She answers all of my questions and I learn new things every Tuesday. I think she is a great teacher.
Patience and Guidance . . .
My daughter Juliana is in her second year of guitar lessons. Her teacher Chris is doing a great job! We can't say enough about him. He really has the patience and guidance to help her get to the next level of guitar playing. I am amazed at how far she has come, I know I would love to even just be able to read music, let alone play the guitar. Looking forward to another great recital!
My daughter, Alicia, has taken piano lessons at the Cherry Hill Academy of Piano & Guitar for 2 years. I have been so pleased with her experience and her progress. Guy does an amazing job of teaching the love of piano, improvisation, music theory, and good musicianship while keeping the lessons engaging and fun! Alicia is comfortable playing both sheet music and from memory. Having taken lessons myself I love the way that Guy teaches both traditional and more modern music approaches. We are very pleased with the entire experience, and my youngest daughter will be starting lessons too!
I met Guy at the Cherry Hill Academy, after having stagnated through multiple piano teachers over a course of many years. Through innovative techniques , Guy was able to provide me with a new perspective, allowing me to visualize the piano in a new manner.
Quickly, I was able to understand piano theory which made learning new music easier and enjoyable. I found my songbook expanding rapidly, often playing spontaneously for hours.
As an adult student, I have found Guy and the Cherry Hill Academy to be flexible, frequently tailoring his approach to my needs and time constraints. My daughter, who is also involved in numerous activities which competes for her time, takes lessons as well .
Guy is able keep her interested by allowing her to play music she enjoys without compromising basic exercises and technique. Thus she has shown steady improvement over the last few years and continues to enjoy playing without "burning out" . I strongly endorse Guy and the Cherry Hill Academy. I have stayed with them for the last three years and intend to continue for many more.
My daughter has been taking guitar lessons with Chris for the past five years and he has been nothing short of a wonderful teacher. Chris has a wealth of knowledge of music and easily imparts that information and skill to his students. When it came time to buy a new guitar, Chris met us at the guitar store and literally stayed with us for HOURS helping Rebecca to decide which guitar was best. His laid back personality and patience has made Rebecca's experience with guitar lessons to be extremely positive and has helped to shape her love of music.
Friend is taking lessons too!
Our daughter Angela has been taking lessons from the Cherry Hill Academy of Piano & Guitar for almost three years. Angela's piano playing skills continue to improve as she enjoys learning new music theory and songs. Her teacher Guy demonstrates a passion about music, which Angela has soaked up. Guy possesses the right amount of knowledge, patience and flexibility that makes the lessons both challenging and fun. One day a friend of hers was over during a lesson and now her friend is taking lessons with Guy as well!
My daughter, Ava, began receiving lessons with the Cherry Hill Academy of Piano & Guitar when she was 5. My son, AJ, began lessons when he was six. They are now 9 & 10 years old and are still going strong with the help of Guy Faux as their instructor. Guy has shown incredible patience in dealing with my children during this learning experience. I've been especially impressed with his teaching style, which appears to be student centered and when needed, customized to each learner's strengths and desires.
The book series that he uses follows a logical pattern to help build upon each new acquired skill. However, in addition to the books, Guy knows how to change plans when things aren't going too smoothly. This method has helped to keep my children motivated to continue to grow and learn. My husband and I are happy because when Ava and AJ expressed an interest in learning some Beatles pieces, Guy brought the music and now we get to hear some favorite tunes while they practice every day. In addition to lessons, my children have also been able to participate in yearly recitals.
It has been remarkable to watch the students come together, get past their jitters and show what they have learned. This has proven to be an invaluable experience for them to gain confidence and support a positive self-esteem that will hopefully follow them for life.
It is well known that music affects the body and mind in many powerful ways and is used as a form of therapy for healing. Being encouraged by my 11 yr old daughter playing piano, having learned from Mr. Guy from the Cherry Hill Academy, I decided to take lessons a year ago. I realize it is a great way to alleviate stress from work and a great form of relaxation. I have not set any goals nor pressurize myself to practice, but I find it very rewarding when I can play a piece. Mr. Guy is very patient and accommodating. It's a luxury to not have to travel for lessons.
I took guitar lessons in the past and got very little more than what the internet could provide me for free. I now take lessons with Chris from Cherry Hill Academy of Piano and Guitar and I am finally learning the language of music. Chris balances his lessons with guitar studies and popular songs.
He meets your skill level where its at and has appropriate expectations for progress. I've been continually improving at reading, understanding theory, and playing in my six months of lessons with Chris. This is the way I wanted to learn years ago.

Genedata Releases New Request Management System for Biotherapeutics R&D Processes
Request and task management software increases operational efficiency of biopharma R&D organizations
Basel, Switzerland, February 12, 2019
Genedata, a leading provider of advanced software solutions for biopharmaceutical R&D, today announced the release of a new Request Management Module, which improves operational efficiency and monitors overall R&D operations by supporting the full life cycle of task scheduling. Used to submit and track requests from initiation through completion, it manages intergroup communications and centrally documents project progression in real time. The module addresses key operational requirements, such as scheduling complex, iterative, multi-step tasks, and provides status updates of each task to ensure all steps are completed on time. The software is particularly valuable for biopharma R&D operations in a division-of-labor environment in which completion of experiments not only requires close interactions between specialized groups, such as molecular biology, expression, purification, analytics, and assay teams, but also the integration of tasks performed by CROs and other external collaborators. The module is part of the continuously growing Genedata Biopharma Platform and is available for immediate licensing.
The new Request Management Module is the result of long-term co-development collaborations with major biopharmaceutical partners, where it has been implemented and is already being successfully used, for example, to streamline the production and characterization of both therapeutic antibodies and novel bispecific and other next-generation biologics. It has three main advantages over generic or custom-built request management systems. First, it comes with built-in business logic tailored to biopharma R&D workflows. Second, it is an off-the-shelf system that can be put into productive use immediately after installation, and can also be flexibly configured to support customer-specific process requirements. Finally, it seamlessly integrates with the biopharmaceutical workflows systems Genedata Biologics® and Genedata Bioprocess® for large-molecule discovery and development. Integrations with other systems in the Genedata Biopharma Platform are under development.
"Our new Request Management Module is another major step towards building a fully integrated end-to-end platform for biotherapeutics research, development, and manufacturing," stated Dr. Othmar Pfannes, CEO of Genedata. "This new system complements our existing biopharma platform solutions and further optimizes resource allocation, increases productivity, and generates significant efficiencies for our customers."
Genedata transforms data into intelligence with innovative software solutions and domain-specific consulting services that automate complex, large-scale experimental processes and enable organizations to maximize the ROI from their R&D. Founded in 1997, Genedata is headquartered in Switzerland and has offices in Germany, the UK, Japan, Singapore, and the US.

Satellite imagery, carbon dioxide measurements, and computer models all help scientists understand how climate and carbon dynamics are changing in the world's forests. But the technology powering these high-tech data only stretches back about thirty years, limiting our picture of long-term change.
A new study in Nature Communications by scientists from the Harvard Forest, Columbia University, ETH Zürich, and elsewhere shows how information revealed by a new method of analyzing tree rings matches the story told by more high-tech equipment over the short-term. Because trees are long-lived, looking back in their rings with this new approach may add decades or even centuries to our understanding of carbon storage and climate change in forests.
To test whether tree rings are a good proxy for satellite and other data, the scientists examined ring samples from two widespread tree species -- tulip poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera) and northern red oak (Quercus rubra) - growing in three climatically different regions of the eastern US.
The team says the full power of this new method would rely on an expanded network of tree ring research. "When we put tree ring data to work in historical climate models, we find that the models are more powerful when more species are included," says Neil Pederson, a Senior Ecologist at Harvard Forest and co-author of the new study. "I suspect this might also be the case when we use models to look forward, to future forest productivity and carbon storage."

Elizabeth Anderson > Programme Proposals > Mr Bach Comes to Town
Mr Bach Comes to Town
for children of all ages
Douglas Lawrence as Johann Sebastian Bach - organ
Karl Philip Emanuel Bach - flute
Elizabeth Anderson - harpsichord
written and directed by Elizabeth Anderson
The Children's Bach is a surprise-packed programme that will teach children about J.S. Bach, his family of 20 children, his music and his instruments.
Mr Bach rudely interrupts whilst Elizabeth is playing his Chromatic Fantasia on the harpsichord. Elizabeth is unable to continue the performance, as Mr Bach insists on showing the children his preferred instrument, the organ. It's lucky that she has already been able to give the children a quick tour of the harpsichord, because Mr Bach enthuses so much about the organ that she can't get a word in edgeways. One thing leads to another, and before we know it, Mr Bach has introduced his eldest son, Karl Philip Emanuel Bach. "That's a bit of a mouthful isn't it? You can call him Karl". He tells the children to say "Good afternoon Karl", but Karl seems not to register. Mr Bach has forgotten that Karl doesn't speak English. "How do you say "Hello Karl" in German?" he asks. Oh yes "hallo Karl". When the children greet him in German, Karl Phillip Emanuel becomes quite animated, and agrees to play his flute for them.
Elizabeth teaches the children to sing the two-bar theme of the Goldberg Variations. This is put to the words: "Bach sang great soul: Couldn't stand rock'n roll". Karl Phillip Emanuel demonstrates with Elizabeth to show how the theme can be played forwards, backwards and upside down at the same time, and also in canon. The children join in, singing the theme in canon. Elizabeth, Karl and Mr Bach then take turns to sing with the children, and play the 14 canons from the Goldberg Variations to the Children's accompaniment. The programme ends with the children singing at the tops of their voices, accompanied by harpsichord, flute and organ.
Could Mr Bach ever have imagined such a performance of his music?
After the show, the children are invited to look more closely at the instruments and to play them.
The presentation outlined above is of 45 minutes duration not including the "hands on" time afterwards. Recommended for ages 4 to 400, the show can also be adapted to suit high school students.

Q: JQuery, load, parse, sum and display from external page I'm trying to load an external page which contains a table like this:

   1

    7
  Text

*Notice the whitespace's in the class names of the td's and around the numbers (1,7).
I need to find all cell's (td's) with class "num col", get the numeric value between the a tag'a and sum all the values. Last I need to display this value on my own page.
So the result I would get from the above table should be: 1 + 7 = 8.
I've gotten this far:

Realizing something is wrong (close to being correct I hope :)), I need help connecting the "dots" here so that I can:

*

*Calculate the sum (this is the "big" problem :S)

*Write the result back.
Any help is appreciated.

A: for calc you can use sum += parseInt($(this).text());

I need this collection! I love these creams so much!
These are so ho hum, same old. I wish OPI would jump outside the box.
I wish they would do more holos, shimmers and duochromes.


A federal judge on Friday signaled her support for the record industry as it seeks to file more lawsuits against people who trade songs online, though a challenge from a North Carolina student added a new hurdle for the music companies.
The Recording Industry Assn. of America asked SBC Communications Inc.'s Internet access business this year to turn over the names of customers suspected of swapping pirated songs. SBC refused to honor the subpoenas, instead asking the court to invalidate the law under which they were issued on the grounds that it violates the due-process and privacy rights of consumers.
In a hearing in San Francisco, U.S. District Judge Susan Illston said she was inclined to transfer the suit to Washington, D.C., where another federal court rejected a similar complaint by Internet service provider Verizon Communications Inc.
"My preliminary view is to grant the motion," Illston said. She spent much of the hourlong hearing asking an SBC attorney why she should not move the case to Washington. Illston did not say how or when she would rule, but attorneys working alongside San Antonio-based SBC said they were discouraged.
SBC argues that it is improper for the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 to force the release of customer information based on little more than a suspicion of wrongdoing and without a judge's review. The American Civil Liberties Union and the Electronic Frontier Foundation filed a brief in support of SBC.
New York-based Verizon raised similar issues in the case it lost before U.S. District Judge John Bates in Washington. That ruling eventually turned more on whether the DMCA entitled the record labels to information about Internet users even when the service provider is not storing the songs itself. Bates' decision is now on appeal.
This week in St. Louis, a federal judge upheld RIAA subpoenas issued to Charter Communications Inc. despite argu- ments from the cable Internet service provider that the subpoenas were improper.
But in a sign that the battle will continue, the ACLU on Friday launched a new constitutional challenge to the subpoenas in Greensboro, N.C., on behalf of an anonymous user of the University of North Carolina's computer system. The filing seeks to quash a subpoena issued to the university seeking the student's identity, on the grounds that it violates the student's due process rights.
"We think that this particular statute, as the RIAA is interpreting it, is unconstitutional," said ACLU Senior Staff Counsel Christopher Hansen.
An RIAA spokeswoman responded that the ACLU's arguments "are legally unfounded, and we are confident that the court will agree."
In another pending case, an alleged music pirate is fighting a subpoena in Washington.

Today I'd like to share with you the top-10 ways in which an intruder or a rogue/coerced insider could actually rather easily and quickly gain Domain Admin equivalent administrative access/power/privilege in any Active Directory environment in the world.
Please note that the only reason I'm publishing this simple list is because apparently there is a similarly titled list out there that apparently does not cover even one of the top-10 ways in which an intruder could gain Domain Admin rights in Active Directory.
Use Mimikatz DCSync to obtain credentials of all domain accounts, including those of all privileged user accounts.
Add an inheritable Allow Full Control security permission in the ACL protecting the domain root object to instantly gain domain-wide administrative access on 99% of all objects in the domain i.e. those whose ACL is not marked Protected.
Reset the password of any existing Domain Admin equivalent domain user account, then logon using new password.
Modify the group membership of any Domain Admin equivalent domain security group by adding an account you control to that group, then instantly logon using that account and have that admin group's SID in your Windows access token.
Add a Allow Reset Password or Allow Write-Property Member permission in the AdminSDHolder object's ACL to instantly gain the ability to take over any/every administrative account and group protected by AdminSDHolder.
Add Allow Write Property - GPLink and Allow Write Property - GPOptions permissions in the ACL protecting the Domain Controllers OU, then link a compromising group policy to that OU that would allow you to logon interactively on DCs and/or to gain administrative access on DCs. Once you have admin access on a DC, you own the entire kingdom.
Set the Password not required bit on any administrative/privileged domain user account, then instantly perform a logon.
It should be noted that not a single one of these attack methods involves the use of password hashes or Kerberos tickets.
I should also mention that these are merely the top-10 ways to do so. There are many many (100s) more ways in which one could accomplish this objective, simply by modifying appropriate content in Active Directory. In almost every Active Directory deployment, there are 1000s of objects that can be modified to gain all kinds of elevated/privileged access in Active Directory. One's ability to (exploit or) adequately protect Active Directory is a function of one's depth/expertise in Active Directory security.
For those who wish to learn more about Active Directory Security, this deck is a good starting point - Active Directory Security.
It must also be mentioned that each one of these attack vectors can be easily mitigated by possessing a single fundamental cyber security capability, that most organizations do not (even seem to know about, let alone) possess today. Here's a hint.
Stay tuned for MUCH more, in days to come.
PS: This was a 30-second brain-dump of about 0.01% of our knowledge in Active Directory Security. We generally prefer to let our work do the talking, so here are three simple examples of our work that embody our deep knowledge - one, two and three.
