How to Check Project Treble Support on Your Android Oreo Device
Team Beebom -
Last Updated: December 26, 2017 3:16 pm
If you own an Android device that is not a Nexus or a Pixel, then you already know how long you have to wait to get updated to the latest Android version. While this has been a problem since Android's inception, Google has finally decided to address this concern via Project Treble, which was announced at Google I/O 2017. In the simplest of words, Project Treble will give the vendors an interface that will give them the access to hardware-specific parts of Android, thus making it possible for them to deliver new Android releases to customers just by updating the Android OS framework. The company also announced that Treble will be built-in on devices launched with Android Oreo and beyond. So, if you have a Android Oreo-running device and are wondering whether it supports Project Treble or not, here is how you can find out:
Note: I tried these methods on my Google Pixel and Nexus 5X – both running Android Oreo. Both the methods don't require root access.
Check Project Treble Support on Android Oreo Device Using Terminal App
This is a simple, one-step method that requires you to check the binary value of a command that you'll execute. To get started, download a terminal app like Termux (free), and then execute the following command:
getprop ro.treble.enabled
If the returned Boolean value is "true," then your device has support for Project Treble. It's as simple as that.
Check Project Treble Support on Android Oreo Device Using ADB
Note: This method requires ADB drivers to be installed on your computer. For that, you can choose to download either Minimal ADB & Fastboot or the official Google binaries.
This one is another easy method that uses ADB instead of a terminal application. To do this, follow the steps below.
Firstly, you'll have to enable USB debugging on your device. For that, go to "Developer options", and then toggle "USB debugging".
Once you've done that, connect your phone to your computer, and open Command Prompt/Terminal. Here, execute the following commands:
adb shell
You should now see a Boolean value. If it reads "true," then your device has Project Treble support; and if reads "false," then it does not have Project Treble support.
I tried these two methods on Google Pixel and Nexus 5X. While the method showed that Project Treble is supported on the former, it wasn't on the latter. Hopefully, in the future, we can expect Project Treble being supported on all devices running Android Oreo or above.
Note: Android 8.0 Oreo is currently available on Google Pixel, Google Pixel XL, Nexus 5X, Nexus 6P, and Nexus Player. Within a few more months, it should be arriving on other flagship devices like Samsung Galaxy S8/S8+, Samsung Galaxy Note 8, LG G6, HTC U11, OnePlus 5, etc. as well. When it does, you will be able to check Project Treble support through the aforementioned methods.

Does Your Device Support Project Treble?
With Project Treble, Google is looking to finally put an end to the Android update problem, once and for all. Whether or not this will turn out to be successful will be decided in a matter of time. Till then, you can check if your Android Oreo running device supports Project Treble or not. With the aforementioned methods, checking it should be fairly easy. So, what are your thoughts on Project Treble and does your device support Project Treble? Do let me know in the comments section below.
This tutorial was first posted on XDA Developers. We tried it out and it works without any problems.

Quitting the Bottle
How different generations fight alcohol addiction
WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF? MIKE NICHOLS, 1966
It may be possible to pressure millennials into addiction treatment, but they tend to rebel against such coercion more fiercely than people born a few decades earlier. There are other intergenerational differences as well. Yuliya Belova has described how different generations of Russians deal with alcohol problems. Based on her report for the XXI April International Academic Conference, we take a look at people's different paths to sobriety.
Ways to Goal
Quitting an addiction requires making changes in one's life. How different people approach it depends not only on their individual characteristics but also on their generation. It has been found that growing up in a certain era can influence one's outlook and self-perception.
Belova explores how members of five generations of Russians tend to approach quitting alcohol. Their ages at the time of the study (2019) ranged from 19 to over 81, with the oldest subjects born in the mid-20th century and the youngest ones in the first decade of the 21st century.
Five generations of Russians according to Vadim Radaev's classification
Years of birth
Period of growing up
Age at the time of the study
Mobilisation generation
Thaw generation
Stagnation generation
Reform generation
Having reviewed more than 130 published autobiographical stories of ex-drunks, Belova identified 11 distinct practices which people may use when they decide to give up alcohol. In particular, these practices concern how people deal with obstacles and switch modes between drinking and sobriety.
At the decision stage, the main difference is based on the criterion of independence, i.e. whether a person makes an independent decision or trusts someone else's expertise:
adaptation: conforming to circumstances and other people's wishes;
submission: having others choose for them – or being pressured into choosing – a specific method for quitting alcohol;
free choice: being guided by one's own ideas on how to deal with the addiction.
Once the decision is made, one's path towards the goal depends on how they deal with potential obstacles:
conscientiousness: painstaking and thoughtful pursuit of their objectives;
firmness of intention: a consistent search for, selection and use of information about quitting alcohol;
intensity: persistent and intense efforts, not always well-conceived or prudent;
isolation: avoiding other people in an attempt to combat addiction single-handedly.
And finally, people may use different tactics of switching between drinking and sobriety and dealing with setbacks (based on the flexibility of choice criterion):
loyalty: sticking to tried and tested methods and advice from trusted people;
rationality: reflecting on past experience and consciously looking for alternative approaches;
replacement: deliberately switching from drinking to healthy activities;
change of environment: dealing with the discomfort by trying something new, not necessarily being fully aware of the problem or committed to quitting.
The above 11 coping practices — some of which may or may not overlap in different generations — reflect the diversity of challenges involved in transitioning to a sober lifestyle.
Older Generations: Loyalty and Conscientiousness
The 'mobilisation' generation: 81 and older. The 'thaw' generation: 73 to 80. The 'stagnation' generation: 52 to 72.
Characteristics: patriotic, hardworking, committed, perfectionist, seeking guidance and support, collectivist, loyal to authority, law-abiding.
Practices of quitting alcohol:
independence: adaptation and submission
resistance to circumstances: conscientiousness, firmness of intention and intensity
flexibility of choice: loyalty
'Obediently', 'dutifully', 'under escort' — these are the words which member of the three older generations use to describe their experience of fighting the addiction. Once they decide to quit, rather than explore how it can be done, they prefer to follow other people's advice or submit to pressure:
Yesterday, I voluntarily submitted to being hospitalised in a mental health facility.
female, born in 1932
Escorted by the rehab centre's counsellor alongside other patients, I was led to an AA [Alcoholics Anonymous] group meeting...
Even submitting to someone else's choice or pressure, one can be driven by one's own sense of responsibility — which is often characteristic of older persons' mindset — and show perseverance, reflected in an impressively thorough and systematic approach to quitting alcohol:
Over and over again, I worked on a methodology which included, with variations and not necessarily in this order of priority, intellectual, psychological and spiritual approaches (AA meetings and literature, medical literature, and going to church); extensive physical exercise (swimming pool, dumbbells, tennis); reducing the frequency of drinking to a minimum and taking at least 10 to 14-day alcohol-free intervals; while having 'due respect for the enemy' and approaching alcohol with utmost vigilance and caution.
male, born in 1947
After a setback, older people tend to resume the same methods as they used before, even though they may consider an alternative:
I phoned Slava, a guy from the [AA] group and said that I'd relapsed and that day was my first sober day [after the relapse]... The next evening, I was already attending the AA group.
male, born in 1963.
After spending some time in search of other methods... I swallowed my pride, came back to the group meeting and finally started to sober up.
Most older people are convinced that books shape one's personality. They tend to think of themselves as well-educated and thoughtful people, especially those who grew up during the 'thaw' and 'stagnation' periods. Compared to younger generations, they are more likely to read a lot:
Books were my fist passion, I binged on books... Everyone in my family worshipped books... Even during wild hangovers, I never touched books. [Damaging] books is taboo. They are sacred..
Reading anti-alcohol literature was often their first step towards sobriety, and being an avid reader often helped alleviate one's craving for a drink. Yet on the other hand, books had contributed to alcohol addiction for some people who first started drinking to imitate literary characters:
I read a lot when I was a child. In particular, I loved adventure books about noble knights and duels ... high-society balls and receptions, partying hussars, secret assignations with fine ladies — all accompanied by lots of wine which gave the heroes their strength, determination and vitality. Then I wished I could grow up faster to be like them.
'Reform' Generation: Confusion and Rationality
The 'reform' generation: 38 to 51.
Characteristics: rule-following, committed to obligations, nostalgia coexisting with a thirst for change.
independence of choice: submission
resistance to circumstances: firmness of intention and intensity
flexibility of choice: rationality
People of the 'reform' generation tend to be more independent and more likely to respond to 'gentle and unobtrusive suggestions' rather than strict orders. Nonetheless, they are prepared to trust and obey authority and find it easier to 'quit alcohol in the company of other people':
It was not easy; what really helped me was the church and the group meetings with other people like me who understood me and shared their experience, strength and hope ...
Like the older generations, they tend to stay true to their commitments. There is a difference however, since their formative years fell during the period of massive change between 1985 and 1999. Born in a state which suddenly ceased to exist, they are often confused:
Who am I? A miserable egocentric drowning his heartache in alcohol. Now I realise that my complaint to the world, namely that I was raised a Soviet citizen but have to live in an entirely different country, is nothing but an excuse to get drunk.
On the other hand, they are more accepting of change. Therefore, they tend to act rationally after a relapse and reflect on their earlier attempts to fight the addiction; based on the lessons learned and given a choice, they may change the method:
I had to choose between a local LTP [state-run rehab facility] and a Salus Centre in Moscow. I had my own ideas about LTPs and I chose the 'Russian-American approach' offered by Salus
Millennials: Motivated Independence
The generation born between 1982 and 2000.
Characteristics: defiant of authority, doubting, seeking self-sufficiency and new experiences, confident but lacking perseverance.
independence of choice: free choice
resistance to circumstances: intensity and isolation
flexibility of choice: replacement and change of environment
Compared to earlier generations, those aged between 19 and 37 have a different attitude towards alcohol. They tend to experiment with it earlier but drink less and quit at a younger age.
Millennials have grown up and matured in an environment which supports self-reliance. Those born in this era of wide access to information need to feel that quitting alcohol is their own choice. Coercion will not necessarily work with them:
My relatives found out about my lifestyle and had me committed [to a detox centre]. But I was kicked out of the centre after 28 days for 'not cooperating'. I broke every rule, I did not trust any of the counsellors, and I refused to admit that I was addicted.
female, born in 1982.
They are more likely to accept unobtrusive encouragement from others:
I am very grateful to that doctor for not trying to impose things on me but encouraging me to sort it out and to try and understand myself better. This was exactly the approach I needed.
However, they rarely trust anyone completely and tend to question methods:
The recommendation to attend 'ninety meetings in ninety days' seemed like a punishment to me. I literally had to force myself every time and preferred to keep quiet during meetings.
They often feel the need to isolate themselves from others and rely on their own devices:
I isolated myself from the world and the people. I went sober cold turkey, and it was a miracle that God helped me not to drink.
In commenting on millennials' practices, the author of the study explains that while they may or may not be aware of the severity of their drinking problem, they tend to change something in their lives to get rid of the discomfort.
This generation is the only one to use replacement practices, i.e. to avoid drinking by switching to benign activities which are not related to any addiction treatment methods. According to Belova, 'Younger people may be haunted by the feeling that alcohol deprives them of things they value in life and believe that quitting will help them reach their dreams'.
I used to take up odd jobs, like cleaning floors in supermarkets, packing vegetables or handing out flyers outside a metro station. At the same time, I was working on my degree paper and studying as much as I could. I'd cut all ties with my former drinking pals. In June, I successfully defended my degree and in September, I gave birth to a healthy daughter, Mashenka... These are the best things that have happened to me in my entire life...
Millennials tend to be persistent in fighting the addiction; many of their stories use phrases like 'being dead-set on quitting', 'struggling to stay in control' and 'fighting against myself'.

A reported drone sighting delayed a helicopter being sent to a fire in Coromandel this afternoon.
Four fire crews and a helicopter have now extinguished the scrub fire at Hahei Beach on the East Coast.
A spokesperson for Fire and Emergency said at its height the blaze at the popular holiday spot covered about half-a-hectare.
He said reports of a possible drone sighting near the fire meant the helicopter could not respond straight away.
But, once the scene was given the all-clear, the helicopter went in.
Crews are still at the scene dampening down any hotspots.

AP FACT CHECK: Trump blames media for his McCain rant
March 21, 2019 State
By HOPE YEN, CALVIN WOODWARD and ERIC TUCKER , Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump is offering a distorted account of John McCain's actions in the Russia investigation and trying to blame the media for making him talk about the late senator, despite plain-as-day evidence that he's assailing McCain without any prodding.
On a recent tear against McCain, Trump also claimed credit for steps aimed at improving health care for veterans and denigrated the senator's record on the issue. "McCain didn't get the job done for our great vets," Trump said. "I got it done."
In reality, McCain got it done. That is why the law expanding private-sector care for veterans is named, in part, after the Arizona senator, Vietnam War naval aviator and tortured prisoner of war who died in August of brain cancer.
A look at some of Trump's statements:
TRUMP, asked why he is criticizing a dead senator who can't defend himself: "When they ask me the question, I answer the question. But you people bring it up. I don't bring it up." — Fox Business Network interview, to be broadcast Friday on "Mornings with Maria."
THE FACTS: This is false. Trump has been assailing McCain without any prompting by the media. He tweeted Sunday about "last in his class" McCain (who wasn't last in his class), after a tweet Saturday about "stains" on the late senator's record.
And after extended opening remarks in a speech at a Lima, Ohio, Army tank factory on Wednesday, Trump abruptly segued by telling his audience: "A lot of people are asking, because they love me, and they ask me about a man named John McCain." He went on to devote nearly 800 words to criticisms of McCain.
Trump further claimed in the Fox Business interview "that when I went out yesterday to the scrum, they asked me the question," and that's the only reason he discussed his feelings about McCain. But at that scrum — a gathering of reporters who asked him questions as he was leaving for Ohio — the president didn't answer any questions about McCain, if any were asked in the din. A day earlier, at the start of Trump's meeting with Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, a reporter asked about his anti-McCain tweets.
TRUMP: "John McCain received a fake and phony dossier. Did you hear about the dossier? It was paid for by Crooked Hillary Clinton. Right? And John McCain got it. He got it. And what did he do? He didn't call me. He turned it over to the FBI, hoping to put me in jeopardy." — remarks Wednesday at the Lima, Ohio, tank factory.
TRUMP: "So it was indeed (just proven in court papers) 'last in his class' (Annapolis) John McCain that sent the Fake Dossier to the FBI and Media hoping to have it printed BEFORE the Election. He & the Dems, working together, failed (as usual)." — tweet Sunday.
THE FACTS: Trump's chronology is incorrect. McCain did not present then-FBI Director James Comey with a copy of the memos compiled by former British spy Christopher Steele until December 2016, according to a deposition from a McCain associate, David Kramer. FBI officials had access to Steele's research on Trump before the election, as they referenced it as part of an application for a secret search warrant of Trump associate Carter Page.
Trump often claims falsely that special counsel Robert Mueller's Russia probe is based on the dossier. That probe is examining Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election and possible coordination with the Trump campaign. The FBI's investigation actually began months before it received the dossier of anti-Trump research financed by the Democratic Party and Clinton's campaign. The FBI probe's origins were based on other evidence — not the existence of the dossier.
There is no evidence that McCain provided the dossier to the news media.
And while McCain famously racked up demerits and earned poor grades at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, he ultimately graduated fifth from the bottom of his 1958 class, not last.
TRUMP: "The vets were on my side because I got the job done. I got Choice, and I got accountability. … For many decades, they couldn't get it done. It was never done. I got it. Five months ago, I got it done. Choice." — remarks in Ohio.
THE FACTS: What Trump got done was an expansion of the program achieved by McCain and Sen. Bernie Sanders, most prominent among the lawmakers who advanced the legislation signed by Obama.
McCain was a co-sponsor of the 2014 legislation to overhaul the Department of Veterans Affairs following a scandal at VA's medical center in Phoenix, where some veterans died while waiting months for appointments for medical care. He was a key negotiator for the legislation establishing the Veterans Choice program, working with Sanders, the co-author of the bill. Sanders was then chairman of the Senate Veterans Affairs Committee.
McCain didn't rest after the law was enacted. He fought to expand the program and achieved that, too, in his last months.
Congress approved the expansion in May and Trump signed the legislation in June. It's named after three veterans who served in Congress.
One of them is McCain.
It's called the John S. McCain III, Daniel K. Akaka, and Samuel R. Johnson VA Maintaining Internal Systems and Strengthening Integrated Outside Networks Act of 2018.
TRUMP: "Instead of waiting in line for two days, two weeks, two months, people waiting on line — they're not very sick, by the time they see a doctor, they are terminally ill — we give them Choice. If you have to wait for any extended period of time, you go outside, you go to a local doctor, we pay the bill, you get yourself better, go home to your family — and we got it passed. We got it done." — remarks in Ohio.
THE FACTS: As he does routinely, Trump exaggerated what's been accomplished with his expansion.
Veterans still must wait for weeks before they can get private care outside the VA system.
The program currently allows veterans to see doctors outside VA if they must wait more than 30 days for an appointment or drive more than 40 miles (65 kilometers) to a VA facility. Under new rules to take effect in June, veterans are to have that option for a private doctor if their VA wait is only 20 days (28 for specialty care) or their drive is only 30 minutes.
But the expanded Choice eligibility may do little to provide immediate help. That's because veterans often must wait even longer for an appointment in the private sector. Last year, then-Secretary David Shulkin said VA care is "often 40 percent better in terms of wait times" compared with the private sector. In 2018, 34 percent of all VA appointments were with outside physicians, down from 36 percent in 2017.
The VA also must resolve long-term financing because of congressional budget caps after the White House opposed new money to pay for the program. As a result, lawmakers could be forced later this year to limit the program or slash core VA or other domestic programs.
Also key to the program's success is an overhaul of VA's electronic medical records to allow seamless sharing of medical records with private physicians, a process expected to take up to 10 years. VA Secretary Robert Wilkie has said full implementation of the expanded Choice program is "years" away.

Nuremberg Forum 2022 "The International Criminal Court 2002–2022: A Court in Practice"
By Gentian Zyberi on 10 September 2022
The International Nuremberg Principles Academy is organising its annual high-level international conference Nuremberg Forum from 13 to 15 October 2022. The Nuremberg Forum 2022 will be held as a hybrid event. The speakers and a limited number of participants will gather at Courtroom 600 of the Nuremberg Palace of Justice. An interactive online platform allows broad attendance including interactive engagement and discussion. Prior registration is required.
The conference will examine the achievements of the International Criminal Court (ICC) in its first two decades. High-level experts will analyse its work and will reflect on its set-up and achievements in light of the Nuremberg Principles and the Nuremberg legacy. Six panels which will identify the ICC's strengths and weaknesses in its fight against impunity:
· Panel I: The ICC's Major Achievements
· Panel II: Goal Setting: How Deterrent is the ICC in Reality?
· Panel III: Complementarity: Universal Aspirations Versus Tangible Results
· Panel IV: Justice is Interconnected and Does not End with a Sentencing: Reflecting on the Experiences of Victims, Witnesses and the Accused Before the ICC
· Panel V: Whose Outreach and to Whom?
The leading questions at the heart of this conference are: "What have been the achievements of the ICC, especially in terms of its own goal setting and wider universal aspirations and what challenges does it still face?" and "How did the ICC strengthen, over the years, its contribution to the international legal order, and how can its contributions be improved?"
The Nuremberg Forum will bring together leading and distinguished practitioners, academics and other scholars from across the international criminal justice field and related domains. The keynote addresses will be delivered by H. E. Christian Wenaweser (Ambassador of the Permanent Mission of the Principality of Liechtenstein to the United Nations), Luis Moreno-Ocampo (former Prosecutor of the ICC), Fatou Bensouda (High Commissioner to the United Kingdom, The Gambia and former Prosecutor of the ICC) and Brigid Inder OBE (Former Executive Director of Women's Initiatives for Gender Justice).

RI, United States // Project Updates & Industry Developments
Providence river dredging timeline getting trashed by garbage
Nate Volz , a leverman for the J.F. Brennan Company, clears debris from the cutterhead of the dredge being used in the river project. [The Providence Journal / Bob Breidenbach]
PROVIDENCE — The catalog of garbage pulled from the water during the dredging of the Woonasquatucket and Providence rivers includes 13 electric scooters, so many bicycles that workers have lost count, innumerable plastic bags, bottles and cups, and an unusual amount of old clothing and shoes.
With the project about two-thirds done, crews have filled one 30-yard dumpster already and are getting close to the top of a second.
It's been so bad in some areas that the dredge has had to shut down every five or 10 minutes so the team from contractor J.F. Brennan Co. can disentangle bags and other junk from the cutterhead that churns through the river bottom to suck up sand and silt.
"Jeans are the worst," said Dan Goulet, dredging coordinator with the Rhode Island Coastal Resources Management Council.
All the delays are adding up. A project that was supposed to be completed by Christmas is now set to continue into January after workers take a holiday break that started Dec. 20.
Goulet estimates that it will take about 20% longer than planned to finish dredging the stretch of river from Providence Place mall to the new pedestrian bridge. And that will add to the cost of the approximately $5-million project that is being covered by bonds approved by state voters last year.
"It's going to be in the hundreds of thousands of dollars," Grover Fugate, executive director of the coastal council, said of the additional cost.
One morning this week, Goulet and Fugate, a representative of The Nature Conservancy, which is helping to manage the project, and some visitors pulled up to the dredge as it worked near the Exchange Street Bridge. As if on cue, leverman Nate Volz, who was piloting the dredge, shut it down and pulled the ladder holding the cutterhead out of the water.
A sweatshirt was wrapped tight around the rotating mechanism. Volz put on a pair of elbow-high, puncture-proof gloves and used a knife to cut it out.
"We didn't have to stage this," Goulet said. "We just had to wait a few minutes."
Some amount of junk was expected because the river runs through the heart of urban Rhode Island, but the level is beyond anything that was imagined. It sets the project apart from what the crew from Brennan, a Wisconsin company that works nationally, has seen in other places.
"It is substantially higher than I have ever seen," Volz said from inside the dredge's pilothouse, where a computerized color profile of the river bottom guides his work.
Groups had been calling for years for the dredging of the waterway that cuts through the heart of the city, complaining that its poor state was interfering with the revitalization of downtown. Most of the material clogging the river is road sand that was swept into storm drains and flushed into the river over the last quarter-century. With last year's bond approval, the work to clear the water could move forward.
Besides the large volume of garbage, there have been other complications that set back the dredging schedule. It took longer than planned to get permits from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. A round of extreme tides around Thanksgiving also pushed things back. Waters were so low in the Waterplace Park basin that the dredge couldn't move for a time.
Despite the problems, the work is slowly getting done. The basin, which experienced some of the worst silting, is now clear.
"Before, at low tide you could walk halfway across this," said Chad Defoe, a superintendent with Brennan.
Now, the river bottom is where it should be — under several feet of water.
The material being removed is pumped through two miles of piping to the South Quay in East Providence, where it's dewatered using a sand wheel, tested for contamination and separated into piles.
All of it so far meets Department of Environmental Management standards for industrial or commercial reuse. Once the sediment is dried out completely, it will be sifted to remove any plastic fragments and other small debris and spread over the quay, which is being developed as a concert venue.
Parts of the river may have improved in appearance since the work began, but garbage still mars the surface of its waters. During the recent tour of the site, plastic bottles and other trash floated by. Eventually, pieces will break down or fill with water and sink to the bottom, to be removed years or decades from now when the river must be dredged again.
Environmental groups have been working for years to pass a statewide ban on single-use plastic bags and have more recently tried to restrict the use of plastic straws, but legislation has so far failed to win support in the General Assembly. Meg Kerr, senior director of policy at the Audubon Society of Rhode Island, says that in the 14 cities and towns that have banned plastic bags already in Rhode Island, there has been a noticeable difference.
She hopes to see action taken in the communities in the Woonasquatucket River watershed.
"When all these towns eliminate plastic bags, we would expect to see significant improvement in the number of bags in the sediments," she said in an email.
For Goulet, the problems that bags and other trash have posed to the dredging work have become a hard lesson in how the waste we improperly dispose of not only harms the environment but costs us money in the end.
He's saving all the trash and hopes to work with project partner WaterFire Providence to put it all in a big plexiglass box to go on display somewhere. That way, he said, people can see how much junk is ending up in Providence's rivers.
"Enough," he said. "We can do better."

Welcome to the Students' Cooperative Association (SCA). You are now one of many proud owners of our co-op, and we hope you will be able to learn as much by being part of the co-op as have innumerable past owners.
This Owner's Manual is intended to give you a brief introduction to, and overview of, the co-op. Due to the inadequacy of words, what you read here will be nothing like what you experience. In fact, you will probably not learn much here that you would not pick up by living here for a year or so, but it might be good to have at least some idea about what you are getting yourself into If you have just moved into SCA, you will probably want to read the section called Moving In. This section will give an idea of what to expect in your first several days here.
The co-op is made up of people from varied backgrounds coming together to share in the planning, working and living that make our houses homes. If you are here solely because the co-op is an inexpensive place to live, you will not get much more than that out of it. Equal and conscientious participation by the entire membership is the foundation of the co-op. As we work together to make the houses a continually enjoyable place, new friendships form and the community is strengthened.
As you discover for yourself the intricacies of your house, don't forget that there are other houses just down Alder Street. Don't hesitate to make friends with your fellow co-opers; too often the only people visiting the other houses are going to Board meetings.
May the best of luck be with you in making your experience here as enjoyable and fulfilling as possible.
The Students' Co-operative Association has been a home to many people just like you. A sense of history is important in a co-op, especially when most members stay for only a year or two. There have been hundreds of members here before you, each of them dedicated to the idea of co-op living, many of them constantly working on improving the co-ops through writing and rewriting by-laws and policies to fit the times, building bike racks, refinishing floors, re-roofing, replacing boilers, hiring employees, acquiring new houses, etc.
The co-op organization has been in existence since 1937 when a handful of students banded together to live more inexpensively in the face of the Depression. Since its inception SCA has owned several different buildings around campus. Campbell Club, purchased in 1962 from a sorority, has withstood riots on Alder Street in the late 60's and its yearly Halloween party. Janet Smith was purchased by SCA in 1981 through the constant effort of a few dedicated members with funding from the National Consumer Cooperative Bank and the West University Neighborhood Association. In the spring of 1990 we acquired the building at 1648 Alder Street, then known as Parr Tower. To do so, we assumed the debts of Co-ed Housing, Incorporated, a co-op which was founded by Janet Smith and unfortunately went bankrupt due to embezzlement and mismanagement.
Campbell Club and Janet Smith houses are both named for idealistic people who had a marked effect on cooperatives at the University of Oregon. Campbell Club was named after Wallace Campbell, the founder of C.A.R.E. and a member of various cooperative organizations while attending the University of Oregon in the 1930's. He wrote a thesis on student cooperatives which was the model used by the founding members of SCA. Janet Smith, a University of Oregon administrator in the same time period, was instrumental in the formation of the first women's cooperatives on campus. Lorax Manner was named after the main character in the Dr. Seuss book The Lorax. The house has an environmental theme evoking the manner of the Lorax, who tried to save the Truffula trees.
For more history, explore old house documents, visit the Archive Room in Campbell Club and pick the brains of "old" members. Be curious; much of the history of the SCA exists only in the heads of these venerable co-opers.

Review: Kate Beckinsale Confronts Her Conflict in Amazon's The Widow
April 12, 2019 April 12, 2019 Daniel W. Rasmus
Review of: The Widow
Limited Series:
Eliza Mellor
Free on Amazon Prime
Last modified:April 12, 2019
A watchable mystery/thriller and moral exploration vehicle set in Africa, The Widow focuses on Beckinsale's Georgia Wells, a seeming widow to a man lost to risky non-profit work in one of the world's more precarious territories. Early on Georgia catches a brief view of an orange baseball cap on a news report and starts thinking that perhaps her husband isn't dead at all. When The Widow avoids pointing out moral issues with a big stick, it does a credible job of delivering thoughtful, well-constructed mystery and action.
Kate Beckinsale expands her repertoire in Amazon's The Widow, which appeared a few weeks ago on Amazon, and is now available in the UK on ITV.
Many familiar faces join Beckinsale in The Widow.
Set in Africa, The Widow focuses on Beckinsale's Georgia Wells, a seeming widow to a man lost to risky non-profit work in one of the world's more precarious territories. Early on Georgia catches a brief view of an orange baseball cap on a news report and starts thinking that perhaps her husband isn't dead at all.
Georgia's single-minded search for answers about her husband takes her to African villages and jungles uncovering corrupt NGOs, delusional warlords and child labor along the way.
Beckinsale brings depth to Georgia, who must exist in multiple timelines (as do most of the characters) as flashbacks set-up encounters and justify grief. Joy and comfort of the past give way to confusion, determination and ultimately vengeance in the present.
Martin Benson, Tywin Lannister of Game of Thrones, supports first as cautionary and reluctant mentor and then transforms into a battle partner. Alex Kingston, the timeless wife of Doctor Who and erstwhile ER doc, plays Judith Gray, a complex and conflicted head of a relief agency that does few favors when offering favors. Babs Olusanmokun steals many a scene as the waning General Azikiwe and his entourage of guilt (before you think that sentence doesn't make any sense, watch the show).
Shot in South Africa, the villages and jungles seem real because they are. Much of the world lives in a very different reality, one that is a kind of remix of our reality: popular culture pumped through the Internet and over airwaves clashes with a cacophony of corruption to create a very surreal world for those viewing from their Western iPads and 65-inch big screen television in houses with no bars where front doors of sit unlocked.
The Widow touches upon many of the challenges still facing Africa and other developing areas. Villages are raided and children are turned from students of ideas and language into students of hate and weaponry. Those not so lucky to become soldiers become miners or take on other menial tasks with yokes held by local warlords and their Western associates.
Most of this observation is told through the plot, with some exposition. In the last episode, however, the underlying moral struggle gets exposed, as The Hulk might say, like a raw nerve. The intrigue and tension get spilled into a montage on how the threats exposed in the show stem from the Western need for cellular phones and other electronics. Without our greed for technology, things might be different. Rare earth minerals as the new conflict diamonds.
It isn't that the moralizing is wrong or inaccurate, it just distracts from the characters and the plot, much as the insets in the documentary elements of National Geographic's Mars bogged down a show that needed more energy to start with. The Widow has energy, but the last episode's opening does drain some of it away through a sluice of overselling.
If you like Kate Beckinsale, then you need to watch The Widow just because she doesn't work as much as other actresses. But then, most actresses don't have the Underworld franchise to fall back on. In this outing, and in Love and Friendship, another Amazon endeavor, Beckinsale demonstrates that she can bring power to a film and lead the audience through it. And that she does in The Widow. She builds up a juggernaut of conviction that steamrolls through the steamy streets of Kinshasa, first in a desperate attempt to find answers and then in a journey to reconcile her life with those answers.
The eight-episode run by pretty quickly and I'm doubting there is much meat left for a second series, so the investment is light and the payoff pretty good for fans of Beckinsale, television mysteries and rethinking the distribution of wealth.

Amounts expected to be reimbursed by governmental entities based on annual reports filed at the balance sheet date.
Amounts to be paid to governmental entities for payments received in excess of hospice cap limits and prior year costs report settlements.
The consolidated profit or loss for the period, net of income taxes, excluding the portion attributable to noncontrolling interest - redeemable shown in the mezzanine section of the balance sheet.
Decrease in noncontrolling interest balance from payment of dividends or other distributions by the non-wholly owned subsidiary or partially owned entity, included in the consolidation of the parent entity, to the noncontrolling interest holders. This amount excludes payments to non-controlling interest redeemable.
Increase (decrease) in net amounts due to/from governmental entities based on activity from annual reports.
The interim financial information includes all subsidiaries and entities controlled by the Company through direct ownership of majority interest or controlling member ownership of such entities (including, as a result of the Merger, those owned and operated by Almost Family). Third party equity interests in the consolidated joint ventures are reflected as noncontrolling interests in the Company's interim financial information. See Note 9 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
In conjunction with the vesting of the nonvested shares of common stock, recipients incur personal income tax obligations. The Company allows the recipients to turn in shares of common stock to satisfy minimum tax obligations. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company redeemed 63,161 shares of common stock valued at $3.9 million, related to these tax obligations. In addition, the Company redeemed 5,485 shares of common stock valued at $0.2 million, related to the exercise of Almost Family options. Such shares are held as treasury stock and are available for reissuance by the Company.
Based upon the Company's evaluation of the redemption provisions concerning redeemable noncontrolling interests as of June 30, 2018, the Company determined in accordance with authoritative accounting guidance that it was not probable that an event otherwise requiring redemption of any redeemable noncontrolling interest would occur (i.e., the date for such event was not set or such event is not certain to occur). Therefore, none of the redeemable noncontrolling interests were identified as mandatorily redeemable interests at such times, and the Company did not record any values in respect of any mandatorily redeemable interests.
