American Palladium Eagles were authorized by Congress with the American Eagle Palladium Bullion Coin Act of 2010 – Public Law 111-303. Their release will mark the fourth precious metal to be represented by the Eagle Program which already included Gold, Silver and Platinum.
As a bullion strike of the United States Mint, the Palladium Eagles will have their weight, content and purity guaranteed by the United States Government. That same guarantee also applies to the other three Eagle programs and makes the Eagle series ideal investment options as their liquidity is easily recognized by markets around the world.
Before the Mint can start striking the new coins, however, the authorizing act requires that a marketing study be done by an independent third party to determine whether or not there is adequate demand for the product. If such demand is found, the Mint will begin striking them within one year of that reports submission to Congress.
When minted, each coin will contain one troy ounce of .9995 fine palladium and feature a face value of $25. The coin's diameter and width will be determined through by the US Mint through the Treasury Secretary.
The coin's obverse and reverse designs will be based on the work of noted artist Adolph A. Weinman. The obverse will feature Weinman's well-known "Winged Liberty" design that was first used on the circulating 1916-1945 dime known by many as the "Mercury Dime." The reverse will contain a version of Weinman's 1907 American Institute of Architects medal. Both will be struck in high relief along with the required inscriptions of LIBERTY, IN GOD WE TRUST, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and the coin's weight and fineness.
Weinman's work can also be found on the popular American Silver Eagle which features his "Walking Liberty" design on the obverse.
Along with the bullion Eagles, the Mint may also strike collector grade versions in both proof and uncirculated finishes. The authorizing Act requires that if such coins are struck, the proof coin's be struck at the US Mint's facility in West Point. The bullion coins may be struck at any facility other than West Point. Another requirement of the Act states that if collector grade coins are struck, their surface treatment should vary is some manner from year to year.
When available, the Palladium Eagle Coins will be sold through the Mint's network of authorized purchasers and will not be available directly by the Mint. All of the bullion products of the Mint are sold through the network which obtains the strikes in large lots, only to resell them in smaller quantities to coin dealers and individuals.

Q: Prevent dynamic change of  content from text to an  element from expanding the width of the column I have this Svelte snipped (also available in the Svelte repl here]

    {#each Array(rows) as _, row}

When you click a table cell, it switches to an <input> element, simulating the ability to edit the data.  But the  gets wider once the <input> id added, causing the whole column to get wider.  This is a jumpy experience for the user.
How do I change the content of the  without widening the column?
In other words, once the table is sized to fit the content, how do I keep the width of each column fixed, even if I change the contents of a cell?

A: The width: 0; min-width: 100%; trick can help you.

Making a career in design wasn't an intention that Tushant Bansal harboured. But it did have a sense of inevitability, having meandered into it after trying his hand at finance, actuarial science and chartered accountancy. Bansal finally settled on a masters in interior design and furniture from Florence Design Academy, Italy. For the founder of New Delhi-based interior and product design practice, Tuba Design, design was visceral, intuitive almost. And since its establishment in 2015, Bansal's studio has completed 25 projects, from holiday homes, residences, commercial spaces—and product and furniture design. His debut as a product designer began with the 2018 Brianna collection of book holders, vases, candle sticks, paper trays, planters and paper bins. Here, we discover more about what drew Bansal to design, his foray into product creation and his penchant for innovation.
My love for playing with shapes, colours, materials or mediums is what led me to choose this path. When I was younger, every time I would travel, I would always very meticulously notice houses, buildings, or landscapes, and feel curious to see how they looked from inside. I have always been an art enthusiast too.
Contemporary. While I love mixing styles, the core design aesthetic remains constant in every project.
While working on city apartments, how do you overcome the challenge of space constraints?
The most challenging aspect of city apartments is to maximise spaces. Considering the growing number of families that are raising their kids in inner cities, it is also very important to create a child-friendly living space. In such cases, emphasis on designing balconies, outdoor seating, terrace gardens, among other considerations, becomes more important to a decent standard of sustainable living.
Which Indian brands do you use for your interior projects?
Atmosphere, Floor and Furnishings, FCML India, Jaipur Rugs, Quba Kitchens and Flos India are always a part of every project.
How did you decide to venture into product design?
I have been designing products and furniture since 2015 but those were custom made for my interior projects. But when it came to thinking about creating a collection of products, it was all about finding the right inspiration, determination and courage to pick up a pencil and start scribbling down ideas.
What, if any, is the common element that runs through your spaces and your products?
As far as a commonality to my work goes, I'd say the essence of minimal or contemporary design, neutral elements and focus on line, shape and form is pretty much evidenced across all my work.
I wanted my debut collection to be about the pieces I have always worked very hard to find while designing interiors. It sort of came as an inspiration to create these products, which form the Brianna collection. Before I introduced my creations to the Indian market though, I began selling them in London through a high-end luxury design house that sells worldwide, for about a year-and-a-half now.
Which materials do you like working with?
Mixed media, natural solid wood, brass, bronze, marble, ceramic, concrete, leather.
Are you planning on extending the current line-up of products?
There will be a few more additions made this summer to my current product range from the Brianna collection. I am also working on a new collection, which will be launched this fall.

Self-Showing services are one of many new technologies that have come to the forefront of the rental property industry in the last few years. Simply put, these services have changed the game when it comes to showing rentals.
In the not-so-distant past, we had multiple Showing Agents booked all-day long with showings around Central Indiana. We also employed part-time Agents to show evenings and weekends. If the prospect showed up 75% of the time, it was considered a success.
In addition, our Office staff spent hours and hours each day on the phone, pre-qualifying prospects and scheduling those Agents.
Clearly, it was an expensive and, frankly, inefficient system.
So, in late 2016, we decided to give Rently Self-Showing Services a try.
Basically, Rently is a self-showing service that uses a smart lock box system which allows Renters to electronically schedule viewings of rental properties completely on their own. It offers Property Managers and Owners a way to automate their showing process so that they don't have to be present for every tour.
We have an in-depth blog that goes into all of the technical aspects, which you can read about here: A Property Manager's Review of Rently Self-Showing Services.
Let me assure you that Rently has precautions in place to protect your asset.
When prospective applicants register to view the home, they are required to upload a photo ID as well as input their credit card information, and the two must match. To ensure it is a working card, Rently charges a .99 cent fee and does not allow prepaid cards. So, in case there is an adverse event where they do cause damage, we have their financial information as well as photo ID.
In all the years we've been utilizing Rently, we haven't had a single issue where damage was caused and the Owner Client suffered from it.
In fact, we've had multiple instances where prospective applicants have called us to report issues, such as no heat, which have actually saved our Clients from suffering damages.
Trust me when I say, the benefits FAR outweigh the risks.
When we take over management of your portfolio and put your property on the market, we will send you an email with a unique Rently link.
This link will give you access to a report that shows all of the activity your property receives, in real time.
You can see call volume, emails, showings, and any feedback left by potential renters who have viewed the home.
This report provides you with a well-rounded understanding of how your home is performing in the market, and offers a quick and efficient way for you to stay informed.
Now, usually wait lists have a negative connotation, but in this case, it's a mechanism that will allow us to basically create a fan base for your home. Here's how it works.
Let's say you sign your property over to us, but it needs a little make ready work and can't be shown. After we evaluate it, we determine it's going to take two weeks to complete the work.
Rently gives us the ability to market your home as "Coming Soon" on our website with an expected "Available Date." Interested persons can view all of the information and photos, and, if they're interested, register for the Wait List.
Once they are on the list, they will be automatically notified the minute we fully market your property and click the button to allow showings. Since they have already registered with Rently, they will be all set to go to view the home once they get that notification.
We've had waitlists for homes that have included more than 200 people!
This is an amazing tool and the benefit it has for Owners is unparalleled.
We've already discussed quite a few reasons why Rently is a great product, but wait, there's more!
The software allows us to interact with prospective Tenants in 3 purposeful ways.
Feedback: As I mentioned before, prospects can leave feedback after viewing your home. We have multiple staff members who are dedicated to reading through every single note we receive after every single showing.
This feedback helps us understand how people generally feel about your property and can be a determining factor for any changes or adjustments that need to be made.
And remember, you have access to this feedback as well.
Responding to Feedback: We don't just read all of the feedback we receive, we also respond to it.
Whether positive or negative, we reach out to every single prospect that views your home and respond accordingly.
For example, if someone has an issue with the cleanliness of the home, we will let them know that it will be professionally cleaned before move-in, encourage them to apply, and we provide a link directly to the home specific application.
If someone says they would like to apply, we let them know how excited we are that they are interested, and again, provide a link to the home specific application.
Automatic Notifications: As discussed earlier, prospects who sign up for the wait list receive automatic notifications when the home is open for showings and applications.
Similarly, prospects who have viewed your home will receive automatic text and email messages if any changes are made to your property in our system.
For example, if we determine that we need to lower the rent for your property, once we make the adjustment, everyone who has ever toured the home through Rently will be updated and provided a link to review the home again.
Rently allows us to stay in the forefront of prospects' minds, which is invaluable in this market where renters have a lot of options.
We hope you see the value that Rently provides you as one of our Owner Clients.
Our goal is to get your home rented as quickly as possible, to the most qualified Tenant, with the highest degree of professionalism.
Rently helps make that happen.


Your data is very safe and very secure. Do you know the difference between being safe and secure? We do.
When we discuss ensuring the safety of your data, we are specifically talking about taking special precautions to make sure that your data doesn't disappear because of hardware failures, fire, theft and even carelessness in software development.
When we refer to establishing security of your data, we are referring to how we guarantee that your data cannot be seen by prying eyes through "snooping" on the Internet, a hack or even by the theft of our servers.
It makes sense to first talk about your data's security. There are two sites to the SubmitPatientForms.com domain: the public and the secure. The public site is where anybody on the Internet can navigate. This site is just like any other public website on the Internet, such as http://www.microsoft.com, where there is no need to provide security. The secure site, however, is the site that we secure and protect from prying eyes.
When you navigate within our secure website, you will notice a small image of a lock in the status bar at the bottom of the browser (when using Internet Explorer). This image indicates that the page you are on communicates with the web server using SSL (Secure Socket Layers).
In a nutshell, SSL uses technology and algorithms to encrypt data that is being transferred to the web server from your computer, so that if this information is intercepted along the way, the people looking at it cannot make heads or tales of it. Once the data is on the server, our web server can decrypt the data into its original form if necessary. The data coming from the server to your computer is also encrypted and only your computer's browser will be able to decrypt it.
Although all data sent between your computer and our servers is encrypted, only certain data needs to be kept securely on the server itself. Besides your user password, the database of all your clients falls into this category. This information is saved to our database in an encrypted format rather than in an "open" decrypted format that is "human-readable".
We do this so that the data remains secure in the case that a hacker gets into our server or if a thief steals our equipment. Although we don't anticipate either one of these events happening in the nearby future, we remain prepared.
With encrypted data, a hacker or thief can do nothing without our key and password. Only we know our password as you should be the only one to know yours.
Generally, there are two flavors of operating systems for servers that run websites: Windows and Linux. We aren't going to debate the pros and cons of each operating system, but we are going to say that Windows 2003 Server is an excellent product; thus the reason we have chosen it as our foundation. Unfortunately, as many people know, Windows gets attacked regularly by hackers.
To prevent a hacker from getting the best of us, we follow a security plan as suggested by Microsoft them self. Besides keeping our data secure on the server, we use NTFS as a lower level of security. NTFS is Microsoft's most secure file system (the code that actually stores your data on the server's hard drives). To access data, you need passwords. We use "hard" passwords and change them often (read more about choosing a good, hard password in this article from the United States Computer Emergency Readiness Team).
We employee a team of hardware experts. These experts work everyday monitoring our servers; watching their performance and administrating their security. We download and install security patches automatically from Microsoft every day. We automatically download the latest virus definition files from Norton for their corporate Antivirus software, everyday.
Although security is important, it is only half of the job. If your data is not safe, you can lose it, it can become corrupt, or worst, it can be destroyed. Although we take every step possible to prevent these types of accidents from occurring, we cannot guarantee that they will not happen. However we can guarantee that we will have another copy of your data, ready to go in case of an emergency. This is the key to the safety of your data.
Your data is stored on our servers. We do not rent servers from a provider nor do we rent shared space on somebody else's server. This is very important.
When you navigate to a webpage there is very little you can do to identify the type of server the web page is hosted on. If you were an expert, you could run network commands to learn if it is a Unix machine or a Windows machine, but even that isn't 100% reliable. You can figure out the computer's Internet address (IP address) and who is providing the Internet service for the server (such as Verizon or Comcast), but unless you are an expert, you won't be able to find out if the server has 200 websites on it or if it is really a computer running in somebody's basement.
Shared servers (or shared hosting) are computers used by more than one customer at a time. For most simple websites, this would be sufficient. Going with a shared product is a cheap way to get information on the web and is quite acceptable for a lot of purposes. However, when you are running a company and are entrusted to keep your customer's data secure, it is not such a good idea. With shared products, we wouldn't have control of the system password to the machine. We would have no idea who had access to it. Even worse, other software, from other companies or individuals, would be running on the machine with the possible ability to accessing your data.
This is why we have our own servers. We are the only ones with the passwords to our systems. Not even the employees of the data center that the servers are located in have access to any of our machines.
Your data is backed up onsite and offsite to different servers every night.
Your data is first backed up to local transaction logs in the event that the database were to crash, we could restore it within minutes. Transaction logs are created every hour.
Next, both the transaction logs and the original database are copied to another local server within the same secure local every night. If a machine were to break, we could easily restore the data to another machine and be up and running within a short period of time.
Afterwards, the data is automatically transferred offsite to another location. In the event of a fire, theft or major catastrophe where the machines or the secure data center are lost, we could restore the data to machines in another location.
It is our belief that that the only proper location for ours servers is a data center. We have all of our servers located in a Class A data center on Long Island, NY, which ensures that they are in a safe, climate controlled environment with reliable redundant connections to the Internet and various forms of power fail over devices.
Natural gas generators sized to run a full load of all the data centers machines indefinitely in case of major power outages (our servers were online during the New England Blackout of 2003).
If you are worrying about the security and safety of your data, don't.
When you enter sensitive data on your computer while visiting our site, it is sent to our servers using SSL (a method for transferring data encrypted across the Internet). Once your data arrives at one of our servers, we store your sensitive data in its encrypted form to our databases.
We download Microsoft operating system patches and update our antivirus definition files daily. We own our own servers and we are the only ones with the passwords which are changed frequently. Your data is backed up daily to other local machines and then offsite to another location. Our servers are located in a Class A data center surrounded by climate control and a surveillance system, supported by redundant connections to the Internet and multiple power failover devices.
We work hard so that you do not have to worry.

Early Alert program aims to identify, assist struggling students
By Eric Reikowski, media relations assistant
With the start of a new semester, Oakland University has a range of initiatives in place to help students focus on the finish line of graduation. One of those programs, called Early Alert, aims to identify students who are experiencing academic difficulties or who need help connecting with campus resources.
Sponsored by Oakland's Academic Affairs Division, the program is a proactive way to assist students early in the semester, while there is ample time to resolve issues and overcome challenges. The program was launched in 2009 and helps faculty identify and communicate with students who may be experiencing difficulties in class.
Faculty members can submit a referral form online, which initiates the Early Alert process. Brian Wummel, Early Alert retention coordinator, points out that timing is critical when it comes to helping students stay on track.
"The recommended referral timeline is 3-6 weeks into the semester," Wummel explained. "Referring a student during this period would be optimal for the students to connect with the resources they need to turn their performance around."
Once notified, Wummel can respond in collaboration with other departments to address student challenges, which may include poor class attendance, incomplete or missing assignments, poor quiz and test scores, lack of course materials, not being at course level and inappropriate behavior.
One of Early Alert's goals, Wummel says, is to acquaint students with the wealth of campus resources available, such as The Tutoring Center, The Writing Center, the Office of Disability Support Services, the Center for Multicultural Initiatives and the Financial Aid Office.
While the program most frequently has served students in 100- and 200-level classes, Wummel noted that Early Alert welcomes referrals from all classes, particularly those with traditionally high levels of difficulty.
"We really want faculty to be aware of this program so that we can help students stay in class and keep moving toward graduation," Wummel said.
For more information, visit oakland.edu/tutoring, then click on "Early Alert Program," or contact Wummel at (248) 370-2529 or e-mail ouea@oakland.edu. He is also available during office hours in 103 North Foundation Hall from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Mondays, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Thursdays, and 9 a.m. – noon on Fridays.
Summary Early Alert, aims to identify students who are experiencing academic difficulties or who need help connecting with campus resources.

LeanIX Receives Application Certification from ServiceNow
New integration bridges the gap between Enterprise Architecture Management in LeanIX and IT service management in ServiceNow
Bonn/Boston - May 8, 2018 - LeanIX, the leading global provider of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solutions in Enterprise Architecture Management (EAM), today announced it has received certification of its application with ServiceNow, Inc. to help customers seamlessly integrate IT service management (ITSM) and Enterprise Architecture (EA) data. Certification by ServiceNow signifies that LeanIX has successfully completed a set of defined tests focused on integration interoperability, security and performance. The certification also ensures that best practices are utilized in the design and implementation of LeanIX with ServiceNow.
The disconnect between data at the service level in ITSM and at the application level is holding Enterprise Architects (EAs) back from achieving fully integrated IT management. This information gap combined with the varying language used to describe services and applications with respective technologies prevents good decisions and renders implementations difficult. LeanIX Integration for ServiceNow dissolves the boundaries between ITSM and APM. Information is entered once and runs through both systems. Applications are planned and set up in LeanIX and then transferred to ServiceNow, where they function as a business service for establishing the ITSM framework. Software and hardware, discovered via ServiceNow, is then mirrored on LeanIX to connect applications to corresponding IT components. EAs can leverage the flexible analysis of lifecycles and their impact on the application landscape to adjust the IT roadmap. To minimize technology sprawl, standards (e.g. preferred database technologies) can be planned in LeanIX and are then used in ServiceNow.
"IT infrastructure needs are rapidly evolving, and IT service and application management must keep pace to meet tomorrow's business needs," said André Christ, Co-CEO and Co-Founder, LeanIX. "LeanIX Integration for ServiceNow helps Enterprise Architects plan with confidence - in both operations and strategic decision-making. This is a critical connection that will arm organizations with the necessary visibility into technology risks within the business context via a shared platform for IT management."
LeanIX Integration for ServiceNow uses automatic bi-directional integration to strengthen the practice of Application Portfolio Management (APM). With LeanIX for ServiceNow, Enterprise Architects can identify end-of-life technologies and their dependencies, in order to reduce the risk of IT incidents, avoid additional cost and protect against security attacks. In addition it enables leaderships to make better decisions by analyzing real-time operational data in its strategic context, using LeanIX, the leading EA platform for APM.
"LeanIX's out of the box ServiceNow integration saved us months of development time," said John Walsh, CTO, Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey. "Flexible analysis on integrated data is a critical component of our IT transformation. LeanIX gives us an unmatched level of agility, along with configurable mapping between both systems, which has enabled us to achieve our core use cases today and will support additional needs going forward."
LeanIX is now available via the ServiceNow Store. It supports all active versions of ServiceNow, from Helsinki to Kingston. Find out more here: https://www.leanix.net/servicenow.
LeanIX will join IT industry leaders and innovators from around the world at ServiceNow's Knowledge18 taking place May 7-10 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Visit LeanIX at Knowledge18 Booth #1525.

Congratulations of the Chairman of the Investigative Committee of Russia on Mother's Day
On November 27, 2022, a fire broke out in the large freezing trawler "Sunfish" in the Sea of Okhotsk, 300 km away from the village in Ust-Khairyuzovo, Kamchatka Krai. There are no casualties as a result of the incident, the fire on the ship was localized. On this fact, the Eastern Interregional ID for transport of the Investigative Committee of Russia organized a procedural inspection.
Mr. A.I. Bastrykin, Chairman of the Investigative Committee of Russia, instructed Mr. A.A. Alexandrov, Head of the Eastern Interregional ID for Transport, to report on the progress of the inspection and the circumstances of the incident.


The class has already studied some of the work of the renowned Kenyan writer Ngugi wa Thiong'o, a novelist and theorist of post-colonial literature. Ngugi will discuss the role of literature in autocratic regimes with his fellow panel members. This experience will give the students, all BSE majors, an opportunity to broaden their knowledge of world literatures and interact with the authors of books they have studied and may choose to teach in the future.
In addition to attending PEN World Voices festival, the group will take a guided tour of the new Tenement Museum of Immigration on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, which will give the students a hands-on lesson on the history of American Immigration. The tenements housed over 15,000 working class immigrants from over 20 nations while the tenements served as residences, according to the Tenement Museum's website. The museum wishes to preserve the history of immigration and enhance appreciation for the role immigration has played and continues to play in shaping America's evolving national identity.


This boy has an amazing talent. Dušan Krtolica doesn't just draw, his drawings are so detailed he uses a magnifying glass to do so! Each and every one of his drawings are filled with animals, plants and so on and it would take a long time to even see every single thing he drew into them. Dušan wants to be a zoologist and seeing the knowledge he has about all these animals I'd say he is gonna do alright. Even if that doesn't work out, seeing that he had already 2 national exhibitions at age 11 becoming a professional artist would be a very good option too.


In the midst of America's current culinary golden age, there have been several emerging trends. Whether it's in a food hall or even in fine dining, one of these new passions is sharing.
"Shareables" bring us together. They make dining a more social and enjoyable experience. These ideals are expressed in the recent rise of communal ethnic cuisines like Middle Eastern foods, Korean cuisine, and the popularity of Pilipino foods, and they're also expressed in tabletop trends that provide the ability to share.
Hall China's trays are a great example, as they focus on appetizers that can be shared by the entire table and are in demand for dishes ranging from entrées and salads to desserts and coffee service. They're available in the ever-popular true white glaze, but there is also a new, award-winning option, as well.
Introducing the FER Magazine 2018 Tabletop Award-Winning Hammered Copper Trays from Hall China.
Hammered Copper is inspired by the handcrafted, hammered metalware of days past. It reflects light off the trays' textured surfaces, but it's also easy-to-clean, cost-effective, and comes in a variety of shapes and sizes. As a result, it was awarded the 2018 Tabletop Award from Foodservice Equipment Reports.
Hammered Copper Trays will be featured in the October edition. A group of five judges, made up of smallwares and tabletop specialists from three major equipment and supplies dealerships and two foodservice operators, served top honors to five smallwares entries from a field of 17 finalists, and seven tabletop entries from a field of 47 finalists.
Pro-Pacific is proud to offer these award-winning solutions. Check out what Hammered Copper Trays can look like in your operation by requesting tabletop samples by using our request form.

Preview Party »
Opening Reception: Saturday, July 22, 4:00-6:00pm
Gallery Hours: Saturdays and Sundays, 1:00-5:00pm
A multi-media exhibit by the curators of the Spencertown Academy Gallery: Barbara Lax Kranz, Barbara Willner, Leslie Gabosh, Lynn Rothenberg & Norma Cohen.
"Our gallery curators, who are all volunteers and accomplished artists, work tirelessly to produce multiple shows each season at the Academy," says Madaline Sparks, Vice President of the Academy Board. "This show is an opportunity for the community to get to know them through their work. It's our way of thanking them for devoting their time and hard work to support our mission: Building Community Through the Arts."
has an unabashed love of color. "I tend to depict subjects in an environment that encapsulates, creating an intricate puzzle of shape, pattern, color, and texture," she says. Cohen uses media in several different ways—sometimes straightforward, as a single medium, such as chalk pastel, or with mixed media that might also include oil pastel, watercolor, and an assortment of vintage papers and frames. Her work is inspired by ancient and Medieval frescoes, Roman and Byzantine mosaics, and the artists Matisse, Bonnard, Modigliani, and Chagall. Her themes include Parisian artistic life in early 20th century, lush still lifes, and unique images of Shtetl life in Eastern Europe. She has an M.A. in Art History and, while largely self-taught as an artist, has taken classes at the Art Students League, 92nd St Y, and IS183. Cohen's work has been shown nationally and internationally. She also has an extensive arts administration background, which includes 16 years as executive director and curator at Smithtown Township Arts Council non-profit arts center on Long Island.
Leslie Gabosh has been a working artist for over 40 years, painting still life as well as designing and fabricating jewelry. As a painter, her inspiration has been the 17th century and 18th century Dutch and Flemish paintings of the Golden Age, Spanish paintings of the 18th century, and the 19th century American painters. "My subjects are the incidentals of daily life. When I study the paintings of Adriaen Coorte, Willem van Aelst, and Luis Melendez, I see similar concerns and delights," says Gabosh. She also enjoys the addition of contemporary subjects that add a whimsical touch and resonate with her aesthetic sensibility. "Historically, translucence and luminosity of natural objects have appealed to artists and viewers," she says. "They relay a sense of tranquility and serenity that cancels out the noise of everyday chaos. A moment of quiet reflection can produce a calm and meditative perspective on these ordinary and highly recognizable objects."
Barbara Lax Kranz is an abstract painter who draws her inspiration for her colorful, kinetic, and emotionally-resonant oil paintings from her life experiences. "My formal arts training was in dance, much of which was improvisational. This has had a significant influence on my painting," she says. Lax Kranz lives and works in Chatham, NY. In addition to serving on the Spencertown Academy Curatorial Committee, she is heavily involved with Chatham Synagogue/Netivot Torah. Her works are in many private collections internationally.
Lynn Rothenberg has been taking photographs since age seven, when her parents gave her a small, red, plastic camera for her birthday. After graduating from college, she attended Skidmore College Summer Six arts program, where she took her first formal photography class with David Ahlstead. She went on to study commercial photography at the Academy of Arts in San Francisco and worked as a production assistant and photographer in an advertising agency while also working freelance with modeling agencies. After she moved to the Capital District, she was a photographer for a weekly newspaper until she opened her own photography studio where she focused on people, especially children. "During a portrait session, I take my time, develop rapport with my subject and strive to capture mood and personality with an honest, straightforward approach," says Rothenberg.
Artist Barbara Willner is an expert in historical techniques. She makes drawings and paints in oil and egg tempera, as well as pre-modern decorative art methods using varnishes, gold leaf, and metallic powders. She trained in fine art and design at Pratt Institute, studied etching at the Art Students League, and classical drawing at Die Form in Munich. She was vice president of the Historical Society of Early American Decoration (HSEAD) and helped lead it into the 21st century. "All art is about looking, and every work of art is a record of how an artist 'saw' at the time it was made," says Willner. "Drawing nature requires intense observation, grasping an object's essentials of shape, density, and reflectivity, along with its particularities of time, age, and individuality."

KPD e-News Release: Serious Crash Investigation Underway on West Stone Drive (Update)
• www.KingsportPDBlog.com
SUBJECT: Serious Crash Investigation Underway on West Stone Drive (Update)
CASE #: 20-010054
Update: On May 12, 2020 at approximately 11:20 PM, Kingsport Police Patrol Officers responded to a motor vehicle collision in the 400 block of West Stone Drive in Kingsport. Due to the serious nature of the incident, Crash Reconstructionists with the K.P.D. Traffic Unit were called to the scene. Their subsequent investigation revealed the following:
A black 2001 Dodge Ram 3500 full-size pickup, pulling a utility trailer, was eastbound on West Stone Drive, in the center turn lane, preparing to make a left turn onto Teasel Drive. The pickup was driven and solely occupied by Christian J. Gibson (18 year old male of Church Hill).
Meanwhile, a blue 2006 Suzuki K6R sport motorcycle, operated and solely ridden by Tristan K. McConnell (24 year old male of Kingsport) was westbound on West Stone Drive approaching the same intersection. As the pickup attempted the left turn across the westbound lanes, the motorcycle crashed into it.
Mr. Gibson was not injured; however, Mr. McConnell was killed in the crash. Multiple independent witnesses reported seeing Mr. McConnell travelling at an excessive rate of speed with the front wheel of his motorcycle completely off of the pavement just prior to the collision.
This crash remains under open and active investigation by the K.P.D. Traffic Unit. As such, further information neither can nor will be released at this time.
As previously released:
On May 12, 2020 at approximately 11:20 PM, Kingsport Police Patrol Officers responded to a motor vehicle collision in the 400 block of West Stone Drive in Kingsport. Due to the serious nature of the incident, Crash Reconstructionists with the K.P.D. Traffic Unit have been called to the scene.

CrossFitter meet Medicine Ball. Medicine Ball meet CrossFitter.
Based on ancient drawing and writings, the medicine ball dates back to around 3,000 years ago, when Persian wrestlers would train with animal bladders stuffed with sand.
Ever wondered why it's called a medicine ball? Around 400 B.C., Greek physician and philosopher Hippocrates made his patients throw around sand-filled leather balls for rehabilitation purposes. He believed that strength training helped cure many health problems.
In the navy, doctors advised their sailors to throw the balls around the ship's deck. This supposedly helped the men get rid of boredom and avoid seasickness.
China's version of the medicine ball actually consists of two balls instead of one. Called "Baoding balls," they are usually made of solid iron or steel, and are rotated repeatedly in the palm of one's hand to improve dexterity and strength. It is thought that Baoding balls were invented during the Ming dynasty, anywhere from 1368-1644.
During his term in office, President Hoover became overweight and out of shape. To improve his health, he took up a game popular among sailors, albeit with a few iterations. Hoover's version involved two teams throwing a medicine ball over a net (just like today's volleyball, but heavier!) And thus in 1931, Hoover-ball was born and the medicine ball finally came into American consciousness.
The Wallball Shot was invented by CrossFit HQ and it first appeared on CrossFit.com back in March 8, 2001. That means one of our most hated CrossFit movements is now 13 years old! Oh how time flies!

Around 20 different projects that combined new media art, social and political awareness, were presented to the public in the premises of Atelier Nord media lab at the end of March 2000. The presentation weekend was also an introduction to the workshop that was held the following week.
The weekend event was open to the public. Norway has been quite isolated from what has been going on in new media culture in other parts of Europe, and this was the first presentation of its kind in Oslo. The aim was to introduce media art concepts and practices to an audience of Norwegian artists and interested public. The event was also introducing ideas for the development of a Norwegian network of media-labs and other initiatives as well as developing further international networks and connections.

Youngsters wish to know: 'Will It Be Okay?' — this e-book solutions that query
When the Covid-19 pandemic hit in 2020, Dragonwagon says she felt like she wanted one thing to do. She and her husband began studying youngsters's books out loud each evening.
"The primary e-book that I selected to learn was Will It Be Okay? as a result of it is my most reassuring e-book," Dragonwagon says.
However the e-book had been out of print since 1991. She determined to provide it a brand new life. She re-wrote components of it (taking out, for instance, a line a few "Thanksgiving play" and swapping in "college play" as an alternative). And she or he made one different large change: all new illustrations.
The 1977 illustrations by artist Ben Shecter have been comfortable and nostalgic. Dragonwagon says she appreciated the best way he captured the concern of the little lady — however felt the illustrations did not actually present her power.
For the brand new e-book, Dragonwagon turned to Jessica Love, the critically acclaimed creator and illustrator of Julián Is a Mermaid.
"I made it three strains, possibly 4, earlier than I felt completely sure that if somebody took this job from me, I must hunt them down and get it again," says Love.
Love says she deliberately didn't have a look at the sooner model of the e-book — she knew she needed her illustrations to have the sensation of a print: punchy and graphic. She did the illustrations by hand with thick strains of Sumi ink.
"I form of dry it out in order that the road would not look moist," she says. "It seems to be a little bit draggier … virtually like a pencil."
She restricted herself to 3 colours: black, purple, and yellow — which she combined collectively to create quite a lot of pinks and peaches.
"I needed the art work to have the same construction to it, and restraint to it," says Love. "In the best way that the textual content is restricted to those questions after which solutions."
The mom and her daughter each have large, curly black hair, pink cheeks and expressive eyes. They dance and spin throughout the pages — they appear like greatest pals.
"Once I noticed Jessica's photos, I simply thought 'Wow!' " says Dragonwagon. "It is simply so pleasant, goofy, and highly effective. … She precisely will get the feelings throughout." The kid's absolute horror when she forgets her strains within the play. Her feeling of triumph when she makes up new ones.
Jessica Love / Cameron + Firm
Although Dragonwagon and Love didn't collaborate immediately on this youngsters's e-book, Dragonwagon did look Love up on-line.
"Once I first began in youngsters's books, they tried very vigorously to maintain the artist and the author separate," she explains. "Nevertheless, within the age of the web it is not really easy to maintain folks aside."
Principally they only exchanged a number of emails about how thrilled they every have been to be working with one another. They did not communicate face-to-face till this interview, however say it felt like working with a kindred spirit.
"It is that factor that occurs once you learn somebody's writing that speaks similar to it is being whispered into your ear," says Jessica Love. She particularly linked, she says, with the best way the mom speaks to the kid.
"It is the quintessence of the best way I longed to be spoken to as a baby," she says. "You may really feel it once you're speaking to a little bit child they usually sense that they are being taken critically."
"What if somebody would not like me?" the kid asks within the e-book.
"You're feeling lonely and unhappy," the mother solutions. "You stroll and stroll till you come to a small pond. You kneel within the grass by the sting of this pond and also you see one thing transfer. You place out your hand and a tiny frog no greater than your thumbnail hops into it. Very fastidiously you raise your hand as much as your ear and the frog whispers, 'Different folks such as you, different folks love you.' "
One of many issues that Love says she discovered probably the most useful in Dragonwagon's writing was the sensible recommendation: stand up, take a stroll, transfer your physique, rub an onion backwards and forwards in your bee sting. "It offers you a scaffolding, a framework, to harness the galloping horse that's your frightened baby mind," she says.
Ben Shecter / HarperCollins
As a result of, in fact, the kid within the e-book is working herself as much as asking the most important, scariest query of all of them: "However what in the event you die?"
Dragonwagon says she would not wish to disguise the reality from youngsters — life is filled with upsetting issues! As a substitute, she hopes this e-book helps youngsters, and adults, get via it.
"My feeling is that emotions wish to be felt," she says.
And so the mom solutions the kid: "My loving would not die. It stays with you, as heat as two pairs of mittens, one pair on high of the opposite. Whenever you bear in mind you and me, you say: What can I do with a lot love? I must give some away."
Dragonwagon says she would not know the way she got here up with the reply to this query when she was in her 20s. However now, a long time later, and after having misplaced her dad and mom, pals, and two husbands, she is definite that it's true.
"There's not a day that I do not consider them," she says. "However really their loving would not die."
"So will probably be okay?"

���The Vast And Unsolved Enigma Of Power���: Business History And Business Power
Dec 07, 2021	 Dec 07, 2021	 By Cambridge University Press
<���The Vast And Unsolved Enigma Of Power���: Business History And Business Power>
It is traditional to begin this presidential address with some autobiographical background, if only to provide some context for what is to follow. Chris McKenna rightly likes to remind us regularly that few of us self-identify as business historians. In this respect, it is fair to say that I would not be here today if it was not for me getting a position at the University of Glasgow. Until I moved to the university, my research had focused on the making of government economic policy, in particular the Keynesian revolution. At Glasgow, the long tradition of business history research had been formalized in the creation of the Centre for Business History in Scotland a year before I arrived and led then by Tony Slaven. And so, another "business historian" was belatedly born. However, to return to Chris's anecdote, for me, it is not just an issue of self-identification. About fifteen years ago, an esteemed professor of business history said to me (and with no malice intended or taken): "Neil, you are not really a business historian, are you?" Today, I am happy to swear my oath of allegiance to the field, whether or not this article convinces you of my business history credentials.
I was born in Brighton but then moved frequently around southern England, until at the age of six my family arrived in Croydon, where my parents lived until they retired. We moved frequently as my father's career progressed. He began as an apprentice in the building trade but worked his way up, so that by the time we moved to Croydon he was a building estimator. I have yet to come across anyone else who has had this job, so I had better explain what it was. He would estimate the costings and then the price of a construction project. This estimate then formed the basis for the company's tender submitted to the client to try to win the contract. He worked in this role for some of the largest UK construction companies at a time when they were internationalizing. I remember hearing about his trips to various parts of the world, but my sister and I were taken only to Swansea University in Wales and High Wycombe, just outside London.
Why do I tell you this? Looking back on his anecdotes about his job and the industry, it is clear that economic power and political power were strongly evident. Although bids were blind, it was clear that there was sometimes a degree of collusion or at least ballpark knowledge of other companies' likely bids; and, at times, companies would take turns to try to win contracts. It was also an industry in which incomplete contracts predominated—on a project my father would have ongoing working relations with architects, subcontractors, and the clients, often being involved in follow-up meetings as the building specifications changed or simply to catch up on the developing cost of the project, but always where this was an ongoing negotiation.
All of this is evidence of economic power, but it also merged into political power. The industry famously kept a shared list of ostracized workers linked with trade unions or the left, and it employed the right-wing group the Economic League to spy on suspect workers. When this was closed down, it set up its own organization that operated from the 1990s until 2009, and for which the industry has just paid compensation to some of the workers who were boycotted for over twenty years.Footnote 1 More generally, the industry was known for strongly supporting right-wing or neoliberal think tanks and various other similar activities. Unsurprisingly, it not only had close links with the Conservative Party but was also very active in the Confederation of British Industry (CBI), which was the main representative body of business in the United Kingdom.Footnote 2 The industry often prompted the CBI to push infrastructure projects as an area for further public investment. When threatened with nationalization in the 1970s, my father, like other employees, came home with a sticker for his company car and balloons advertising the merits of the industry.
More seriously, he also mentioned bribery with regard to some of the international projects. The power of these individual companies and the industry as whole resonates with the theme of the address.
After much self-debate I ended up with the title, "'The Vast and Unsolved Enigma of Power': Business History and Business Power." There are many similar such phrases about power, but this one is from Adolf Berle.Footnote 3 I was tempted to use another of his quotes—"Power, next to sex and love, is perhaps the oldest social phenomenon in human history"Footnote 4—but I thought it might give you a misleading impression of what follows. However, this alternative title does link better to the person, other than me, most to blame for this topic: the UK's Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who certainly loves power, and seems to love sex too.
So, why Boris Johnson? In June 2018, the then foreign secretary responded to concerns raised by business about Brexit with the immortal phrase "F*** business," prompting headlines like "'F*** business': Boris Johnson is accused of dismissing concerns of UK job losses in foul mouthed comment to EU diplomats"; and from the Financial Times' Facebook page, "'Fuck business,' Boris Johnson is reported to have said, putting himself at odds with any normal sense of what the Conservative Party stands for."Footnote 5 It also resulted in a cartoon that won 2018's UK Political Cartoon of the Year Award, but the joke, a spoonerism referring to Bucks Fizz, the British winners of the Eurovision song contest in 1981, might be lost on a non-UK audience.Footnote 6
A source close to Johnson subsequently elaborated that he had been misheard; he was actually attacking lobbying groups like the CBI.Footnote 7 Certainly, since becoming prime minister, he has deliberately snubbed the organization on a number of occasions. But the same can be said of his attitude to business more generally. Even the City of London got nothing like the relationship that it wanted with the European Union in the post-Brexit negotiations.Footnote 8
Yet, in the United Kingdom and elsewhere in the world, the common belief is that business is dominant and its power is out of control, particularly in the case of big business and multinationals. Nor is this limited to popular opinion as the titles of these books well illustrate: Gangs of America: The Rise of Corporate Power and the Disabling of Democracy; Unchecked Corporate Power; Monopolized: Life in the Age of Corporate Power; The Political Power of Global Corporations; and The Political Power of the Business Corporation. Footnote 9 Some of these books may be polemical, but others are serious works by respected senior scholars. Stephen Wilks, the author of the last of the list, for example, is not only one of the leading scholars of business regulation in the UK but also served as a member of the UK Competition Commission for eight years. The preface to his book is telling, but typical:
In 1974, when I first became intrigued by the power of business corporations, and particularly by their ability to wrest concessions from national governments, it seemed perfectly possible to bring these concentrations of economic power under democratic control. Now I'm not so sure. It seems to me that many of the democratic gains fought for so heroically over the last 150 years have simultaneously created a set of nominally economic forces which have emptied many of those gains of real meaning. The truly worrying prospect is that those forces, call them corporate capitalism, managerial dominance or simply corporate power, have created new autocrats, immune from effective popular control. Business corporations are often creative and can be brilliant and enriching, but their economic and cultural achievements cloak their ability to dictate political choices. This is far from an original insight.Footnote 10
As business historians, we well know the accuracy of that final sentence, especially for the United States with the cacophony of calls for action against business power during the Gilded Age and subsequently.Footnote 11 The exercise of business power is evident in many areas of business history, from business lobbying and interest groups, to multinational interactions with home and host nation governments, to monopolies and cartels and calls for deregulation, to the study of business networks, interlocking directorates, and business elites.Footnote 12 At the same time, as I will show, most business historians have been reluctant to take on the issue of business power directly and explicitly. Despite working on business-government relations and the collective action of business, I am as guilty of this as anyone else.
In many respects, this reluctance is both understandable and justifiable given that many social scientists are also unwilling to analyze power directly. The subject is too abstract, unfalsifiable, and empirically quite difficult to operationalize. As Culpepper noted in 2011, "The study of business power is currently more neglected than it has been for the last half century."Footnote 13 Thus, many social scientists have followed the line of the historical institutionalist Kathleen Thelen in shunning "'the language of power' in favor of identifying the interests and coalitions on which institutions are founded [because], unlike power, actors and their interests are more tractable empirically."Footnote 14
Despite this, I would suggest that now might be the time for business historians to visit, or revisit, the study of business power. Why is it timely? For several reasons. First, as Adolf Berle suggested, power is a fundamental issue and should be a fundamental issue for business historians. To ignore it or only to engage with it implicitly relegates what should be a core topic of the field to the periphery. Second, it is clear that there has been a reinvigorated interest in the subject among social scientists since the global financial crisis.Footnote 15 Even Kathleen Thelen is now writing on business power.Footnote 16 Third, and finally, there is evidence that business historians are beginning to talk about power more frequently in their work, but it remains rather unfocussed and often implicit.
This article will begin with a brief discussion of the main core approaches to the theory of business power and explain the problems that have subsequently been highlighted. It will then turn to considering the areas of business history in which business power has been addressed. The third section outlines some of the main recent developments in the social science literature that have emerged with the reinvigoration of interest in the topic of business power. The final section suggests how these new developments offer the potential for new insights for business historians by illustrating how these approaches are informing my own work. It is hoped this will act as a prompt to open a wider conversation about business history and business power.

2020 Arts & Culture
Event Date Mon Nov 23, 2020
Event Time 6 PM - 7 PM
Rescheduled! This program will now take place on Monday, Nov. 23
We all know the story of Thanksgiving. Or do we? This uniquely American holiday has a rich and little known history beyond the famous feast of 1621.
In "Thanksgiving," award-winning author Melanie Kirkpatrick journeys through four centuries of history, giving us a vivid portrait of our nation's best-loved holiday. Drawing on newspaper accounts, private correspondence, historical documents and cookbooks, "Thanksgiving" brings to life the full history of the holiday and what it has meant to generations of Americans.
Many famous figures walk these pages: Washington, who proclaimed our first Thanksgiving as a nation amid controversy about his Constitutional power to do so; Lincoln, who wanted to heal a divided nation sick of war when he called for all Americans to mark a Thanksgiving Day; FDR, who set off a debate on state's rights when he changed the traditional date of Thanksgiving.
Ordinary Americans also play key roles in the Thanksgiving story: Indians who boycott Thanksgiving as a Day of Mourning; Sarah Josepha Hale, the nineteenth-century editor who campaigned for Thanksgiving to be a national holiday; the 92nd Street Y in New York City, which founded Giving Tuesday, an online charity pegged to the long Thanksgiving weekend.
While the rites and rituals of the holiday have evolved over the centuries, its essence remains the same: family and friends feasting together in a spirit of gratitude, neighborliness and hospitality. Thanksgiving is America's oldest tradition. Join Vail Symposium for Kirkpatrick's enlightening exploration that offers a fascinating look at the meaning of the holiday that we gather together to celebrate on the fourth Thursday of November.

Book publishing is a slow process, at this point, mostly waiting, waiting for connections to be made, for responses from those connections, for the next inspiration. Sample chapters have gone to one agent who said he could not pitch this book to a major publishing house because I don't have a substantial following, you my dear friends, not withstanding.
Now connecting to another agent to see if we can make some inroads to Hay House. Asking for your Light and love for the highest good of all concerned.
In the meantime, I have been encouraged by my beloved Kenny's soul to continue to write. So here I am again. I'm going to start with a photograph that in earth terms has no explanation.
So on January 11, 2013, when I discovered this little tableau, I wrote my question to Kenny. Remember, the way I access these messages is through wri—I don't seem to be able to focus verbally or visually. So putting my hand to the task seems to keep me focused enough to get the message.
He wanted to talk to me, to let me know I was putting out a certain kind of negativity that may be blocking my next steps. He said he would protect me and guide me through clearing. It was a very short message, but important in that it is bringing me deeper awareness of my consciousness.
I haven't written in a long time, probably since the summer when I was immersed in polishing and categorizing and organizing and finalizing the sample chapters. And I noticed that my awarenesses aren't as deep as they were when I was writing. The writing itself opened channels into the depths of my patterns, my awakening heart, and my unraveling. Profound is not a profound enough word to describe the unfolding that took place one paragraph after another. I long for more something—what is it that I long for?
The place within my consciousness where there is bliss, where there is fresh discovery, where wisdom resides and peace is present. Where all there is is the outpouring. I think at this moment I am describing the state of God Consciousness, Self Realization, and Oneness. To be present moment to moment while God showers me with mercy and unconditional love, to know what is taking place, to sit quietly still while my vision of God dances before my eyes.
It occurs to me that for the first time in my entire life, with no hesitation in any thoughts or feelings, that I am praying to my own consciousness that we place God first in all we do, all we think, all we feel, and all we imagine and wish for.
With my particular numerological life path of cooperation, solid foundation and perfection, routed in the earthbound even numbers of 2, 4, & 6, it has always been difficult to put God before all else. At once the concept asks me to give up control (as if I had any at all ever!) and I thought set aside my aspirations, my wishes and my dreams. That somehow God would find my countenance only worthy of isolation, spinsterhood, and deprivation. That nowhere in my wildest dreams would God agree with any of my dreams, for I must have needed to be punished for any and all past crimes against my soul and therefore against God.
Surely I have revealed enough in past articles for you to understand where all that unworthiness comes from. So today with my understanding of God as benevolent, kind, and unconditional, I practice self-forgiveness for any judgments I have held against myself for past indiscretions and transgressions. And I realize that God only sees me as an innocent child, completely lovable and tender, learning as I put one foot in front of the other. That there is nothing for God to forgive.
I did not die when Kenny died. I have much more to live for, to learn about, and to practice—especially placing God first in my life as I live each day in its glorious unfolding. Apparently he was done on this earthly plane, but I am not.
Which leads me to how to live each day in the heart of God. What would I do, I ask myself? Whatever it is, I do with a consciousness of serving. Serving at work, serving in my interactions with friends, family, and coworkers. Serving as I contemplate discovering new relationships. To emerge from the cocoon of a child-born need to be shown I am loved, to giving love, serving, sharing, and taking care as the fruits of my impulse to belong.
The whole being emerges content in the serving, peaceful in the relating, completely free to share delight and compassion, joy and even silliness. The whole being spontaneously touches with hugs, comforting pats and caring, giggles when it's funny and belly laughs when it's hilarious, which it is more often than ever now.
I wanted to write you to affirm your wisdom and good humor and sureness of life in the spirit. I also wanted you to know that all the love that you share with your loved ones will only increase, though they may not be able to see you in the form they are used to seeing you in.
So from beginning to end, my heart was open, receiving of the most beautiful melodies, lyrics, costumes, scenery, production, all of it without a smidgeon of hesitation, reservation, withholding. How glorious it is to receive with the purity of an open heart. Everything is blessed. Everything is bliss!
March 30 marked three years since Kenny's passing. Here's to his soul, his memory, his talent, and his ability to bring us joy and exampleship as he blazed his trail to God.
I have so much to be grateful for. My by-weekly somatic EMDR sessions with my dear, smart, compassionate, skillful therapist, my Consciousness Health and Healing class at the University of Santa Monica, my spiritual studies over the decades through MSIA, my work at MSIA headquarter, and my own steadfast devotion to know myself as one with God, the brightness coming through from my Soul, and my dear family and friends who have unerringly stood by me not only through these last several momentous years, but throughout my quest for greater Spirit in my life. This poem came through in a USM class while responding to the prompt to access intuition through poetry. While it uses words of the world in describing the levels of consciousness here on earth as "here" and the levels of consciousness of Spirit as "there," it is only a way to speak about how we experience loving. Really there is no here and there, but there is a continuum of which at any moment we may be aware or not. The secret is in precipitation–the prayer to bring down from Spirit that which can be manifest in this world. The last couple of phrases acknowledge this spiritual law.
I asked for the Angel, Cherish at my back.
When I cannot even feel any loving.
Where I know I am Divine.
Where the Light is so bright, there are no shadows.
I know not of High Forms or God's Heart.
between the you that is in me and the me that succumbed to despising us.
And together we all three travel into the Heart of God.
Of why we are separate here and together there.
And all the Good things of the Soul shall prevail on Earth.

Make Real developed a series of VR experiences to enhance learning within Apprenticeships.
Having been selected as one of five digital centers of excellence by the UK government, Prospects College of Advanced Technology (PROCAT) approached Make Real to assist them with securing a local education grant fund to create a series of digital VR applications, as part of their NVQ Level III apprenticeship assessment system.
The objectives were clear from the beginning: create impact, provide virtual practical assessments and have measurable impact. In order to achieve these objectives, Make Real worked collaboratively with learning specialists and tutors from the college to create effective, evidence criteria providing experiences.
To overcome the challenge of not having expertise in the areas of training, Make Real sat down with subject matter experts and tutors to learn and understand what is required for accessing pupils for training, within the chosen fields the electrical, plumbing and air-con and refrigeration maintenance courses.
With VR being a new area of technology for many, the experiences had to built to be easy-to-use and intuitive for both tutors and pupils alike. This resulted in the first designs of our now standard template for virtual toolkits for effective access to content-aware assets. To help with the transition, we ran workshops equipping tutors with the basics of operating this technology.
PROCAT and Make Real have now entered into partnership, based upon the initial deployment success in Basildon, Essex, to resell the Digital VR Applications to other learning institutions. The first deployment based upon this partnership will see the VR system installed into HMP Chelmsford, in a ground-breaking approach to prisoner training and certification.
This project won "Best Use of VR for Education" category as part of the 'Virtual Perceptions – Immersive Perspectives' awards in 2017 and was also shortlisted for the VRBound – VRAwards 2017' "Best Education VR Experience".

'How I Met Your Mother' Recap: Weekend at Barney's is Back and So is the Awesomeness of the Show
By Martha Sorren
It's Weekend at Barney's three, y'all! Tonight's episode of How I Met Your Mother picked up from the break with a much more lighthearted episode than the one where Ted finally let go of Robin and she literally floated away from him. Now the group is left with trying to wake up the extremely hungover Barney in time for the wedding photos, lest he face Robin's dad's wrath.
After initially ruling out a Weekend and Bernie's-esque photo-op with a propped-up Barney ("That's the dream!" Ted says taking on the Barney trope while he's passed out), Marshall and Ted set off to gather the ingredients for the Stinson Hangover Fixer Elixir which he has used to cure them all of hangovers throughout their friendships. Meanwhile, Robin and Lily are tasked with waking Barney up to get the secret ingredient out of him.
This episode travels backwards in time as we get to see the gang at their lowest moments, hungover with only Barney's magic Elixir to pick them back up. (Like when Ted was left at the alter, Marshall thought he failed his Bar exam, and Lily had to go on a kindergarten field trip to the jackhammer and siren museum.)
Barney's inebriated state encourages the rest of the group to vow to never again get that drunk, which, of course, is a promise they break and the show then travels foreword in time to reveal each of those drunken future moments. Lily's adventure shows us a grown-up Marvin off at college who gets caught drinking in the same bar as his mom. "You son of a bitch!" they cry out in unison when they spot each other, proving that Marvin has inherited his mother's attitude and somebody's blonde hair. (Perhaps Marvin is actually Barney's baby? Now that would be a twist.)
The show's writers also fake us out with Robin and Barney's flash forward, making it seem like they have a baby, but surprise! They've drunkenly passed out in the wrong room and the baby's not theirs.
Robin and Lily try the only thing guaranteed to wake Barney up: They kiss. This kiss was a long time coming for Lily, who has made several hundred thousand passes at Robin throughout the show.
As predicted, Barney wakes up just long enough to tell everyone that the secret ingredient is nothing, and the gang discovers that Barney lied to them for their own good because he wanted to convince them they could rally.
So in the spirit of loving via lying, the gang tells Barney that they Weekend at Barney'd the wedding photos, when, in reality, they missed the pics and Robin's dad hit Barney in the balls. But Barney is going to forever think that he's passed out in a bunch of wedding pics until, you know, those photos never materialize.
On the whole, the episode was pretty solid, drawing on several old gags from the earlier and better seasons, like the one where Barney can't take a bad photo. Ted tests this theory at the start of the episode hoping that even though he's passed out, Barney's photogenic magic will work. It doesn't. But we got this gem of a photo, so it definitely wasn't a wasted effort.
Ted's moral-of-the-story moment as the episode wraps up is that sometimes you have to lie for the ones you love, which seems really counterproductive to tell children, but so is 99 percent of what Ted's stories include. He gives his wife the fake elixir in 2022 after a rough New Year's Eve to boost her for the day ahead as their young children come running into the room, and everything about this episode remains adorable.

Q: asp.net mvc + jEditable - save edited cell data in database I am trying to use jquery DataTables plugin to display details from my db table, and use the Jeditable to allow user edit each cell inline. The edited data should be post back and save in database. I came across an example which is quite similar to my scenario here: http://naspinski.net/post/Inline-AJAX-DropDown-and-Text-Editing-with-AspNet-MVC-and-jQuery.aspx and i tried to implement following that as a guide.
However, I face some problem here:

*

*When and how should I use Url.Content() and what should be passed in and returned??

*I get an error when trying to edit the table cell: [MissingMethodException]: No parameterless constructor defined for this object.
I knew I did something very wrong here but I just not able to clear my doubt.
Here is the script i used to make my cell editable:
$(function () {

    // Initialize a data table
    var myTable = $('#example').dataTable({
        // To use themeroller theme
        "bJQueryUI": true
    });

    // Make every cell editable
    $('td', myTable.fnGetNodes()).editable('@(Url.Action("Edit", "Home"))',
    {
        indicator: 'saving...',
        tooltip: 'click to edit...',
        style: 'inherit',
        placeholder: 'click to edit'
    });
});

And the controller action i used to save the edited data into db:
[HttpPost]
    public void Edit(HttpContext context)
    {
        string elementId = context.Request.Form["id"];
        string fieldToEdit = elementId.Substring(0, 4);

        //now take anything after those 4 and it is the Id:
        int idToEdit = Convert.ToInt32(elementId.Remove(0, 4));

        // the value is simply a string:
        string newValue = context.Request.Form["value"].Trim();

        var food = dbEntities.Foods.Single(i => i.FoodID == idToEdit);

        switch (fieldToEdit)
        {
            case "name": food.FoodName = newValue; break;
            case "amnt": food.FoodAmount = Convert.ToInt32(newValue); break;
            case "sdat": food.StorageDate = Convert.ToDateTime(newValue); break;
            case "edat": food.ExpiryDate = Convert.ToDateTime(newValue); break;
            case "type": food.FoodTypeID = Convert.ToInt32(newValue); break;
            case "cont": food.ContainerID = Convert.ToInt32(newValue); break;
            default: throw new Exception("invalid fieldToEdit passed");

        }
        dbEntities.SaveChanges();

        context.Response.Write(newValue);
    }

Really need some help here... Appreciate it...

A: First Question:
Url.Content() should be used for serving static files ie JS or CSS like
Url.Content("~/Scripts/jquery.js")

It will return a direct URL to this static file. Starting with a ~ will ensure, the usage of the correct base dir (i.e. if you are running you application in a virtual directory).
2nd Question:
Your action method has to return an ActionResult to be identified as an action. It can be parameter less, because you have access to the HttpContext as a property of your controller class.
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Edit()
{
    string elementId = this.HttpContext.Request.Form["id"];
}

A: I somehow get it done although it still need A LOT of follow-up works..
I change my controller to return ActionResult and passing 2 parameters (id and value), and I stick to Url.Action at my View.. It works although I not sure  am I doing something wrong..
Here is part of my controller:
[HttpPost]
    public ActionResult Edit(string id, string value)
    {
        string elementId = id;
        string fieldToEdit = elementId.Substring(0, 4);

        //now take anything after those 4 and it is the Id:
        int idToEdit = Convert.ToInt32(elementId.Remove(0, 4));

        // the value is simply a string:
        string newValue = value;

And the script:
// Make every cell editable
    $('td', myTable.fnGetNodes()).editable('@(Url.Action("Edit", "Home"))',
    {
        indicator: 'saving...',
        tooltip: 'click to edit...',
        style: 'inherit',
        placeholder: 'click to edit'
    });

Thanks!

Catherine Vorontsov (1783-1856), comtesse de Pembroke, est une aristocrate russe devenue membre par son mariage de la noblesse britannique.

Biographie
Elle est née à Saint-Pétersbourg en 1783, fille du comte Semion Romanovitch Vorontsov, ambassadeur de Russie en Grande-Bretagne de 1784 à 1806, et de Catherine Séniavina, compositrice qui mourut dès l'année suivante. Elle était l'unique sœur du prince Mikhail Semionovitch Vorontsov, vice-roi de la Nouvelle Russie et du Caucase (1782-1856). Elle était aussi une nièce de la princesse Dashkov, amie de la Grande Catherine et conspiratrice dans le coup d'État qui a renversé le tsar Pierre III et mis sa femme sur le trône.

En 1797, elle devient fille d'honneur de l'impératrice Sophie-Dorothée de Wurtemberg.

En 1808, elle épouse le général George Herbert, et devient comtesse de Pembroke et châtelaine de Wilton House, dans le Wiltshire où le couple accueille le futur Nicolas  en 1817. Le domaine Wilton, à Salisbury, organise une exposition sur sa vie intitulée Through Russian Eyes en . Ses lettres laissent penser qu'elle a été une observatrice avisée de la politique européenne avec un point de vue pro-russe.

Descendance
Du mariage du comte et de la comtesse de Pembroke sont issus six enfants :

 Lady Elizabeth Herbert (1809-1858) : mariée en 1830 à Richard Meade, comte de Clanwilliam
 Sidney Herbert (1810-1861) : marié à Mary Elizabeth Ashe à Court-Repington. Il est fait baron Herbert de Lea en 1861. Le comte de Pembroke actuel est issu de son deuxième fils, qui hérite du titre en 1895.
 Lady Mary Herbert (1813-1892) : mariée en 1837 à George Brudenell-Bruce, marquis d'Ailesbury
 Lady Catherine Herbert (1814-1886) : mariée en 1836 à Alexander Murray, comte de Dunmore
 Lady Georgiana Herbert (1817-1841) : mariée en 1840 à Henry Petty-Fitzmaurice, marquis de Lansdowne
 Lady Emma Herbert (1819-1884) : mariée en 1839 à Thomas Vesey, vicomte de Vesci
