An expert analysis of tickets and bike seizures in the Long Beach Critical Mass fiasco.
November 8, 2010 / bikinginla / 13 comments
For the past few years, Long Beach has been the beautiful face of cycling in Southern California, showing the state what a bike-friendly community can be.
But these days, that face has an ugly black eye, thanks to the local police department's heavy-handed crackdown on the city's first "official" Critical Mass ride, despite organizer's repeated attempts to get the city's cooperation. And many area cyclists find themselves questioning whether any city can truly be bike friendly when the authorities seem to make up the law as they go along, and seize bikes with no apparent legal justification whatsoever.
Recently, Al Williams forwarded me an email written by Alan Wachtel, legislative liaison for the California Association of Bicycle Organizations, in response to that crackdown.
In it, he offered an expert analysis of the citations issued by the LBPD, as well the department's authority to impound the rider's bikes — by far, the most detailed and complete examination of the subject I've seen. As a result, I contacted Wachtel, and got his permission to share the email with you.
Citations issued to the cyclists included:
B240497 – Running stop sign
21201 – No Brakes
1050020 – No Registration;
Riding more than two abreast (Code 1048040)
Turning off lights after getting pulled over
No horns/bells
Riding an unsafe vehicle
The Vehicle Code preempts all local regulation of bicycles, except as expressly authorized. The affected cyclists should hire a lawyer not only to get these bogus citations dismissed, but to sue the City for harassment.
B240497 – Running stop sign: This appears to be a citation number rather than a code violation, which should be VC 22450. Whether it's valid depends on the violation alleged and the facts; however, nothing in the Vehicle Code requires a cyclist to put a foot down in order to make a legal stop.
21201 – No Brakes: Vehicle Code 21201 requires that "(a) No person shall operate a bicycle on a roadway unless it is equipped with a brake which will enable the operator to make one braked wheel skid on dry, level, clean pavement." It's arguable that backpedaling on a fixie qualifies, because the fixed gear itself can be considered the brake. In any case, it shouldn't matter how the bike is made to skid.
1050020 – No Registration: I.e., Long Beach Municipal Code section 10.50.020, which says that "No person shall ride or propel any bicycle upon any street, alley, park or bicycle path or other public place in the city which is not registered, or for which the appropriate fee has not been paid or which does not bear a bicycle plate as required by the provisions of this chapter." But the Vehicle Code provides that:
39002. (a) A city or county, which adopts a bicycle licensing ordinance or resolution, may provide in the ordinance or resolution that no resident shall operate any bicycle, as specified in the ordinance, on any street, road, highway, or other public property within the jurisdiction of the city or county, as the case may be, unless the bicycle is licensed in accordance with this division.
Non-residents therefore may not be cited, and the maximum fine for residents is $10 (section 39011). Moreover, the Vehicle Code no longer allows impoundment for lack of registration.
Riding more than two abreast (Code 1048040): I.e., L.B.M.C. section 10.48.040: "Persons operating bicycles upon a roadway shall not ride more than two abreast, except on paths or parts of roadways set aside for the exclusive use of bicycles." Invalid because preempted by the Vehicle Code.
Turning off lights after getting pulled over: Vehicle Code section 21201(d)(1) requires "A lamp emitting a white light that, while the bicycle is in motion, illuminates the highway, sidewalk, or bikeway in front of the bicyclist and is visible from a distance of 300 feet in front and from the sides of the bicycle" (thus allowing for generators). There is no requirement to display a light when stopped.
No horns/bells: Seems to refer to L.B.M.C. section 10.48.080: "No person shall operate a bicycle upon a sidewalk unless it is equipped with a bell, horn or other device capable of giving a signal audible for a distance of at least one hundred feet, except that a bicycle shall not be equipped with, nor shall any person use upon a bicycle, any siren or whistle." But this applies only on sidewalks (and if it did include the street, it would be preempted by the Vehicle Code).
Riding an unsafe vehicle: Vehicle Code section 24002 provides: "(a) It is unlawful to operate any vehicle or combination of vehicles which is in an unsafe condition, or which is not safely loaded, and which presents an immediate safety hazard." But a bicycle is not a vehicle, and this section belongs to Division 12, "Equipment of Vehicles," which does not apply to bicycles.
Impounding vehicles: Vehicle Code sections 22651 through 22711 set forth the authority to impound a vehicle, such as when it's abandoned or illegally parked, or the driver is incapacitated or arrested. But I see nothing that would authorize what happened in Long Beach. Even in the case of a bicycle that was arguably unsafe for lacking brakes, Section 24004 provides that "No person shall operate any vehicle or combination of vehicles after notice by a peace officer . . . that the vehicle is in an unsafe condition or is not equipped as required by this code, except as may be necessary to return the vehicle or combination of vehicles to the residence or place of business of the owner or driver or to a garage, until the vehicle and its equipment have been made to conform with the requirements of this code." So the cyclists should at worst have been allowed to ride home–except that this provision, too, belongs to Division 12 and doesn't apply to bicyclists.
Speaking of Long Beach, Mobility Coordinator Charlie Gandy says the city is moving in the right direction, though maybe not as fast as some people would like. The Long Beach Press Telegram provides a quiz on bike rules, along with tips for motorists and cyclists. And Bike Long Beach offers a two-part bike traffic skills course; maybe they can offer similar training for the police department.
After the Vail District Attorney refuses to press felony charges against a hit-and-run driver because it could jeopardize his job — as if everyone charged with a crime doesn't face that problem — Cyclelicious calls for a boycott of the city, and asks the organizers of the Quiznos Pro Challenge to drop the planned Vail stage of next year's inaugural race. Works for me.
Meanwhile, People For Bikes directs your attention to a petition asking the Eagle County CO District Attorney to protect all road users, and BikePortland calls it yet another black eye for bikes in Colorado.
Thanks to soon-to-be former Congressman Jim Oberstar for his support of cycling issues. Not surprisingly, conservatives are already gearing up to push for an auto-centric transportation policy; meanwhile, Richard Risemberg, writing for Orange 20 Bikes, says fiscal conservatives should be big fans of bicycling.
L.A.'s proposed cyclist anti-harassment ordinance goes before the full City Council at 10 am this Wednesday, November 10, at Downtown City Hall. As long as you're Downtown, you can join in on the third, and hopefully final, Ed Magos Ride for Justice that takes place on Wednesday at noon.
It only looks like the Give Me 3 posters are starting to come down; then again, you can always download your own poster. Despite claims, L.A.'s bike plan is surprisingly non-ambitious. The students who live in North Westwood Village face some of the worst streets in Los Angeles; thanks to Be A Green Commuter for the link. The Claremont Cyclist offers great photos from the first day of L.A.'s first Griffith Park Cyclocross — as well as a photo of a competitor's bike that was stolen after the competition; there's a special place in hell for bike thieves — and here's another great shot from dudeonabike. Sometimes, it's not hard to tell that the people responsible for placing bike racks don't ride themselves. Robbers push a Pasadena teenager off the bike he was riding, and steal it and his cell phone; meanwhile, San Francisco bike thieves slash a cyclist who resisted their robbery attempt, but get caught a few blocks later. Critics file suit against a proposed project to widen Highway 101 through Ventura County — not because in would increase the highway from four to six lanes, but because it includes a bike lane on the ocean side.
Cyclists need dedicated pathways, not shared-use paths that don't work for anyone; South Carolina cyclists could face a 20 mph speed limit on a popular bike path. The problem with treating bikes equally with other traffic is that traffic laws weren't written with bikes in mind. A Facebook group says we're people on bikes, not lifeless obstacles in your way. Do we need a special slowpoke lane on bike paths and sidewalks? Portland plans to upgrade bike boulevards to Neighborhood Greenways. A Utah mother forgives the driver who killed her 11-year old bike riding daughter. A look at the Denver premier of Race Across the Sky, a movie about the 2010 Leadville 100 mountain bike race won by Levi Leipheimer. A Tampa Bay hit-and-run victim shows that no life is unimportant.
UCI rules Alberto Contador will face disciplinary action over his failed drug test. Aussie researchers call for scrapping the country's mandatory helmet laws. An 18-year old Aussie cyclist, a gold medalist in the Commonwealth Games, is suspended after drunk driving collision that left a friend with serious injuries. Australian police force a teenage cyclist to deflate his tires and walk home after catching him riding without a helmet. A Kiwi cyclist asks if it's unreasonable to expect off-road riders to be considerate of other trail users — and their dogs.
Finally, No Whip does the inconceivable and discovers the seemingly impossible by riding a bike to LAX to catch a flight, and discovering a bike rack in front of Terminal 1 — and actually finds his bike safe on his return four days later.
And best wishes to Claremont Cyclist, who succumbed to the national job layoff epidemic of today; let's all hope he gets a bigger, better job soon.

Thanks for the well wishes. And, by the way, the crossbike in question is back in the hands of its rightful owner. Apparently there is a story behind it, but I am not really qualified to tell it.
I'd be interested to hear more on how the two-abreast provision is preempted. Which section of the Vehicle Code would trump this? I can't think of any off the top of my head.
bikinginla says:
This one is a little complicated. Riding two abreast is not specifically addressed in the Vehicle Code, which means that it's not banned.
The Uniform Vehicle Code specifically allows riding two abreast, while the bicycle section of the CA Driver's Handbook says only that riders should ride single file on a busy or narrow street, implying that it is allowed under other circumstances.
The section of the Code that is usually used to argue against riding two abreast is the requirement under CVC 21202 that cyclists ride as far to the right as practicable. However, in situations in which the lane is too narrow to safely share — which is most lanes where parking is allowed on the right side, due to the door zone — 21202 allows cyclists to take the lane, and arguably allows cyclists to ride abreast to increase visibility and better control the lane.
However, what trumps the Long Beach provision against riding two abreast is that only the state can write traffic laws, as we learned from the L.A. City Attorney when L.A. considered its own three-foot passing law as part of the anti-harassment ordinance. As Alan wrote, Long Beach can pass any law they want regulating riding on the sidewalk; once riders enter the street, however, local cities have no authority to write their own traffic regulations.
Josef Bray-Ali says:
In LA, things are even stranger. The state code defines the "Street" as the space between curbs.
The City of LA defines the street as the right of way between private property lines (i.e. including the sidewalks). I know state code trumps local code, but this makes things very confusing.
Nice catch by Mr. Wachtel on the "Turning off lights after getting pulled over:"! I cracked up when I read that! I liked his responses and points made, I just wish he would have mentioned something about these bicycle licenses.
In my research on the CVC code it states that the city (LB) maintaining the licenses program is suppose to keep an ongoing database. I called about 20 numbers to various city departments trying to find this database. I wanted to ask some questions about the database. I was never able to track down anyone that knew anything about this database.
You're right, Allan. CVC 39005 requires that any city or county with a licensing ordinance is required to maintain a database of all registered bikes. If Long Beach doesn't maintain that database, the licensing ordinance is invalid and every ticket for failure to register should be thrown out.
Also, under CVC 39011, the maximum fine for failure to register is a bike is just $10; if the city attempts to impose a fine over that, they are in violation.
If you look over there on the right, there's a list of local lawyer who just might jump at the chance to take this case on.
Well I was able to track down this mythical database today! A friend I spoke with suggested I contact the Youth Services here in LB. After about 7-8 calls to the PD General Information desk and some rather firm arm twisting, I was finally transferred to someone that could at least start to answer my questions. Seemed like every time I called they told me I needed to talk to someone at the fire station, which was incorrect. All they do is gather the data and submit it to the PD. They know nothing about any database. So now I'll wait a month to see if my record materializes on to this database. I submitted a junk bike to get licensed and then I let it get stolen. So in a month I'll report it stolen just to see if there's a record of my bike or not. I did this to mainly satisfy my curiosity on how effective this database is.
Also I'm not sure if anyone has read up on how the City Council meeting held this past Tuesday(the 9th) went or not. There was a urgent meeting called after the CM incident. It was surprising to see most of the movers and shakers from the bike community there in support. I honestly thought it was just going to be the youngsters on this one. About 8 of the them spoke for 3 minutes apiece and the tone was surprisingly friendly and upbeat. The police chief spoke with the mayor and was able to have the rebuttal on the bikers. What was really sad was that it was painfully obvious that either he interprets the CVC code different in regards to the fixies/brakes issue, or he has yet to read the CVC code in regards to this issue. I could tell that a few wanted to make this point, but the format for doing so was not there. His position and that of the department is that if a bike doesn't have a brake on it, not sure if one brake is sufficient or not, but regardless, if there isn't brake(s) on the bike, it's getting confiscated!
I really think the fixie kids got f***ed on this one. One positive thing I came away with is I believe there is a communication channel that is open between the two parties. The mayor was pushing to make sure of that too. As of now, be forewarned, no hand brake bikes are in danger of getting confiscated here in LB. As are bikes that are not registered. It was never made clear if that includes bikes owners from out of town or not.
Two steps forward, one step back. 🙁
Thanks for the update, Allan. It sounds like it's going to take a lawyer getting involved to convince the LBPD that they have no legal justification to seize bikes.
What's really frustrating is we got the people here in LB that could set the PD straight. I'm not quite sure why that hasn't happened yet. But as of now, they(PD) are off in another tangent.
The 8th amendment of the constitution states that government cannot have excessive fines. I would call this an excessive fine for the so called crime committed.
I have a huge issue with all this and would like all the input possible, my husband received a fine for not registering his bike and for riding on the sidewalk in a business district, his fine $465.00. Uproar caused of coarse. Where do I go from here?
A friend of mine has this advice, copied verbatim;
I've shared this method of winning traffic tickets on posts before and it has worked for ridas. As of today I'm now 7 for 7 winning traffic tickets.
Good luck. Follow the directions exactly or don't bother even starting.
I am 5 for 5 beating traffic tickets (auto), 2 for 2 on the camera tickets (which of course doesn't relate).
The object is to postpone the process as long as possible and to give the cops as many opportunities to screw up as you can. Everything, except a final court appearance, if necessary, can be done online or on the phone. So, here is the system: The most important part is that you follow up and not be the one to miss a deadline.
First, a week before your trial date get an extension. This will put you back 3 months from the ticket date. Second, a week before your extended trial date request a Trial by Declaration. The court will send you the paperwork and give you a deadline. This will put you back about 5 months from the ticket date. Now. remember, a cop gets paid time and a half to go to court. He gets paid nothing to fill out his own Trial by Declaration. If he doesn't send his paperwork in, you win. I've won here about a third of the time. Your Trial by Declaration should be as thoroughly full of shit as you can write it.
Now, if you lose here they will send you a notice. When you get that note and if it says you lost, NEXT is request a TRIAL DE NOVO. This is a whole new trial in court that they will give you just for the asking. This will put you about 7 months from the date of the original citation. AND NO COP EVER SHOWED UP FOR THAT OLD OF A CITATION (3x). Good luck!
You've got ALOT to work with here. The fines are spelled out in the CVC and it states that they can not exceed $10 per violation. Here's a good place to start reading,

Don't move to Lakeview Village too late!
August 22, 2018	no comments in News & Events	by Brian McDonell
When considering a move to Lakeview Village, the question of timing often arises. Lakeview Village is designed for residents to move in when they are still independent, before there is any need for assistance. Lakeview LifeCare™, the hallmark of life at Lakeview Village, requires residents to pass a medical and financial screening. Because of this, the greater risk to potential residents is moving too late.
Resident Story: Jane & Ed Hitzelberger
My husband was tired of the G's: The grind of cleaning gutters, mowing grass, taking out the garbage and buying groceries. We put our name on the waiting list for Lakeview Village, the place we knew we wanted to be…eventually. We had heard, "sooner rather than later," and "don't wait too long." It made sense, but excuses kept interfering with our plan. The economy didn't seem quite right, the thought of a move sounded overwhelming, and/or the children would be upset if we sold the home they grew up in.
We procrastinated, and gambled on our health holding steady. Unfortunately, a sudden stroke changed everything. We had waited too long. Now what?
The problem was that now only one of us qualified for unlimited Lakeview LifeCare™. We were still able to move to Lakeview Village, but the security of LifeCare – for both of us– had always been part of our plan, and it was no longer available.
Our children jumped right in to help with everything. The house sold, the move went smoothly and the responsibility of taking care of a home was off our shoulders.
Today, we urge prospective residents to decide to move in time to enjoy the activities and friendships of an active community. Being a part of a nurturing community helps you maintain a healthy lifestyle, and our children are relieved that we are settled where we want to be, and they didn't have to make decisions on our behalf.
Be aware, there is a point where you have waited too long to decide. We were guilty of not following our own advice, but now we are moved in and settled. We are just glad.
Resident Receives Award
Dr. Mani Mani, pictured with his wife Rebekah, is a 2018 Honoree for the 70 over 70 awards.
We are pleased to announce that Lakeview Village resident Dr. Mani Mani has been selected as a 2018 Honoree for the Shepherd's Center of KC Central inaugural 70 over 70 awards.
Mani Mani, M.D. is professor emeritus in the KU Department of Plastic Surgery. Born in India, Dr. Mani graduated from Christian Medical College in Vellore in 1961 and completed general surgery training there in 1964. While training under the renowned Paul Wilson Brand, M.D., he crossed paths with David Robinson, M.D. That relationship led to an invitation to visit KU Medical Center in 1969 for plastic surgery training and decades of partnership and innovation.
Upon completing his residency, Dr. Mani returned to India. In 1972, Dr. Robinson visited Dr. Mani and asked him to join the faculty at KU. After moving his family to Kansas in 1974, Dr. Mani was selected the medical director for the Gene and Barbara Burnett Burn Center. The protocols for contemporary burn care he developed at the burn center were ultimately adopted as the standard of care by every city, hospital, ambulance, and fire department in the state of Kansas. It then became the standard of care in many parts of the U.S. and abroad including Malaysia, Australia, Kyrgyzstan, and India
Although Dr. Mani officially retired in 1999, he remains active on campus including as a regular lecturer and with his involvement in telemedicine initiatives for the Department of Plastic Surgery with residents around the world.
Dr. Mani and his wife Rebekah have been active residents of Lakeview Village retirement community since August 2015. The Mani's continue to travel periodically to Vellore, India where he consults on the programs and further development of the Christian Medical College. He is active in the Lakeview community, recently giving presentations on end-of-life issues and addressing the high school graduates who receive college scholarships from Lakeview Village residents. He has also presented travelogues about the countries he has visited and their distinctive cultures.
They Shall Still Bear Fruit in Old Age (Psalm 92:14a)
The food pantry at New Haven Seventh Day Adventist Church started by Lakeview Village resident Faye Martin.
A quiet, unassuming woman lives among us, yet she lives an extraordinary-ordinary life as a champion of serving others. She is 81 years young and resides on the third floor in Heritage at Lakeview Village. Despite her recent hip surgery, she embodies God's mission to lovingly promote human flourishing since 1962. How is that possible, you may ask? Let me tell you a story about the life of Faye Martin.
By Paula Holmgren-Silvey
Traveling back in history a bit, Faye is called upon to serve during the formative years of a new Johnson County hospital, located at Shawnee Mission Parkway and Interstate 35. In 1962, an opportunity opens up for Faye to assume the position of development of the OB Department at the newly formed hospital. Within three months, Faye is promoted to Director of Nursing. She stays in this position for nine months, organizing the department before leaving to pursue other career goals. Later Faye returns to the hospital, now renamed the Shawnee Mission Medical Center, where she serves the folks of Johnson County for 37 consecutive years from 1967-2004.
In 2004, Faye retires from the hospital to care fulltime for her husband, who contracts bone cancer. It is a precious time for Faye as she serves her husband until his eventual passing in 2011.
After the death of her husband, Faye continues to serve others. While driving to church one morning in 2013, she is struck with a deep thought. Faye believes that God is speaking into her mind and telling her to start a food pantry at her local church.
When she reaches her church, the New Haven Seventh Day Adventist Church, Faye relates her desire to start a food pantry for needy residents in Johnson County. Indeed, she already knows about the many needs right in her own community because of her years serving at the Shawnee Mission Medical Center.
This outreach to the needy within her community should be a holistic ministry, Faye explains, to not only their physical needs but also to their spiritual needs. Pastor Nunes confirms Faye's desire and tells her that she was already planning to call Faye on the telephone that very week to discuss this possibility!
Ministry to Physical Needs
Thus, the food pantry begins in a small closet at the church and initially ministers to 7-8 needy folks. In the beginning days, the church pastor purchases food across the street at the local Price Chopper on 87th Street. Under Faye's leadership, others within the congregation also help.
Since those beginning days, the New Haven Church's food pantry has grown to currently serve over 100 families in the local Johnson County area. Faye encourages the folks coming to the pantry from other areas to find food resources within their own communities. However, nobody will be refused.
New Haven Church ministers to a varied group of guests. There is a community of Hispanics as well as a community of Russian immigrants who regularly visit the pantry. A Russian volunteer helps to translate. The church receives food from Harvesters, Walmart, Natural Grocers, and Panera Bread. In addition, some of the gardeners at Lakeview Village donate their fresh garden vegetables. Twice each month, Harvesters brings a large pallet of boxed food for drive-thru. At Christmas, children receive a bag of toys, with color books or a reading book as a gift from the church.
Ministry to Spiritual Needs
As an outgrowth of Faye's leadership, a group of prayer intercessors begin meeting together on a weekly basis to pray for incoming individuals and families that regularly visit the pantry. Since those beginning days, the church develops a website that lists the prayer requests of these needy individuals. For example, some ask for prayer to be healed of physical afflictions, or for healing of relational issues among family members, or requests to be baptized.
As a result of these prayer requests, the church for the past two years has been offering clothing, shoes, and toys for the children free of charge through their small clothes closet. Faye thoughtfully smiles and says, "it is the hope of New Haven Church that these folks will wear the clothing to job interviews."
Maintaining Dignity and Self-Respect
Faye believes it is important for these guests of New Haven Church to retain their self-respect and dignity as they accept these gifts of food and loving care of the church. Faye explains that "this ministry has NOT been designed as simply a grocery store, but rather a place of healing for families."
One of the many ways that New Haven Church carries this theme of dignity and respect for their guests is to allow the family members to pick what foods they like. Faye notes that "our guests shouldn't be mandated to accept something that their family members may be allergic to or simply not enjoy eating."
In addition, Faye continues to be physically present each Tuesday when the church opens its doors for the weekly food distribution. She has cultivated many new friendships among these people groups. Faye relates that "we receive thoughtful expressions of thankfulness for the church's ministry." Faye also notes that she derives personal satisfaction from helping the guests that arrive each week at the church.
As a thoughtful apprentice of Jesus Christ, Faye maintains her core calling to promote human flourishing. She practices the biblical mandate to care for the poor and needy among us. She is spunky and determines to be a trail-blazer. She reminds one of the Old Testament prophet, Zechariah, who inspires a small group of discouraged Israelites who return to Israel from captivity in Babylon. They are returning to rebuild the temple and to rededicate their lives to the LORD. Zechariah declares, "For who despises the day of small things?" (Zechariah 4:10 NKJV).
Faye certainly trail-blazes through the days of small beginnings of a Johnson County hospital based on the Adventist Health System philosophy of the "Whole Person Health," known today as the Shawnee Mission Medical Center. She trail-blazes though the small beginnings of a food-closet at New Haven Church that initially ministers to 7-8 needy folks but now serves over 100 families in the Johnson County area today. Truly, Faye Martin lives an extraordinary-ordinary life as a poster-child for Psalms 92:14-15:
"They shall still bear fruit in old age: they shall be fresh and flourishing, to declare that the LORD is upright…" (Psalm 92:14 NKJV).
Would you like to help the downtrodden and the disenfranchised that live among us in Johnson County? Consider donating a portion of your produce from the Lakeview Village gardens or perhaps canned goods or a clothing donation. Please contact Faye Martin at 913-909-7977 or email her at fayemartin@everestkc.net.
Lakeview Village Resident Honored for Contributions to her Church
May 3, 2018	no comments in News & Events	by Brian McDonell
Lakeview Village resident Margaret Dalke will be honored as an Honorary Life Member of the Village Presbyterian Church Presbyterian Women's organization at a celebration on Saturday, March 24. Honorees are nominated and selected based on their significant contributions to Village Church and Presbyterian Women.
Margaret has a heart for volunteering.
"'Do unto others' is one of God's commandments, and I would like to think it [volunteering] will help me get into Heaven when I leave this Earth," Margaret said.
Margaret Dalke
Margaret and her husband Dutch moved to Lakeview Village in 2006. Today, Margaret remains an active member of the Lakeview Village community. She participates in Presbyterian Women at Lakeview and provides transportation on campus as needed. After taking the Lakeview lay chaplain class, she visits people in the Care Center and Rehab regularly. She also organizes the wheelchair pushers to take residents to church every Sunday.
"This days I am mostly organizing the wheelchair pushing and telling other people what to do instead of doing the pushing myself, because my legs and back are deteriorating as my age goes up. But I still have a connection and talk to all those people," Margaret said. "I'm also hoping there will be somebody around to push ME when I get to the Care Center."
For more than 10 years, she has been editor of the Lakeview Journal, which includes stories written by Lakeview residents. "Editing the Lakeview Journal has given me the opportunity to meet so many people that I would probably never get to know otherwise," Margaret said. "Printing and publishing has been my field for 58 years so I know how to do it!"
Moving to a Retirement Community: A Family Discussion
October 18, 2016	no comments in News & Events	by Brian McDonell
If your children are at least 40 years old and you are at least 70, it's time to start talking to your loved ones about your next move. If you are anxious about broaching the topic, consider that according to the AARP, more than 75% of children with parents reaching retirement age have already considered their parents' independent living options, even if they've never talked about it before. If you find yourself struggling with finding the right way to begin the conversation, download our free e-book.

Choosing the Right Retirement Community
Finding the perfect fit among available retirement lifestyles isn't easy. From 55+ homes associations to senior living apartments and Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRCs) like Lakeview Village, it is important to make the right choice, for you.
Lakeview Village President and CEO Jamie Frazier offers three tips for active adults trying to narrow down their retirement choices.
Get to know the reputation of the communities.
Online reviews on Google+, Yelp and other online review sites are helpful in hearing what other people are saying about the community you are investigating. Many communities will also arrange for you to dine with residents in a community dining room. This not only gives you an opportunity to ask residents about their personal experiences, but is a way for you to observe resident and staff interactions, resident interactions with each other, and, of course, sample the food!
Make sure the community is financially secure.
Ask questions so that you understand the community's financial position as well as what aspects of the community are priorities. Non-profit communities may be able to reinvest residents' services fees right back into the community, while communities run by for-profit corporations or venture capitalists may be more beholden to shareholders than the residents they serve. Many for-profit companies in senior living own multiple communities, so more-profitable neighborhoods may see money leaving their community to help support struggling communities or to build new communities.
Ask yourself: "Is the community the right fit for you?"
There is a big variety among senior living neighborhoods. Most offer some services and amenities, but they will vary in scope considerably. Some communities will offer health care on site, through all levels of care, while others may require residents to move outside of the community if they need skilled nursing or assisted living. Some communities are exclusively for apartment living, while others include cottages or high end villa homes in addition to apartments. It is important to visit communities until you are comfortable that the one you choose will satisfy your needs.
Retirement community living can be very rewarding and fulfilling. Doing your research before you make a final decision will find you in a senior neighborhood where you can thrive for many, many, many years to come.
International Residents add Flair to Lakeview Village
August 9, 2016	no comments in News & Events	by Brian McDonell
Austrian Brigitte Roschitz experienced a tumultuous journey to the United States
By Shellie Sullivan
Lakeview Village resident Brigitte Roschitz at 18 in Austria.
A retirement community in Lenexa, Kansas may not sound like a place with much international flair. Perceptions can be deceiving. Lakeview Village is home to residents from three different continents, including Brigitte Roschitz who was born in Austria.
Austria is a land-locked European country bordering the Czech Republic and Germany to the north, Hungary and Slovakia to the east, Slovenia and Italy to the south and Switzerland and Liechtenstein to the west. Brigitte was 11th out of 12 children in her family. Her father was a master tailor and ran his own business in their home, where her mother helped, as she was a seamstress. Brigitte remembers being happy growing up, that is until 1945.
Post-WWII Austria was a tough place for German Austrians
After WWII, Austria was divided into American, British, French and Soviet zones. Brigitte's family, the Steins, lived in the Soviet zone. In the Soviet zone, Yugoslavian Partisans gathered up all the German Austrians, and put them in concentration camps. Brigitte was 10 years old in the spring of 1945 when soldiers came to her home in the middle of the night and took her father and oldest brother. The family didn't know what had happened to them or where they were taken. A week later, more soldiers returned for the rest of the family.
When the soldiers started to come into the house, Brigitte said her mother had the children layer their clothing and wear their coats, since they were not able to pack a bag or take anything but what they had on their bodies. Her mother had the children roll money up in their sleeves and hide some small jewelry in their clothes. She told them they would need it along the way. The soldiers checked everyone for money and jewelry, but because of how smart Brigitte's mother was, they missed their hidden treasures.
Everyone from her town, minus the able bodied males, was moved to town churches or schools. The soldiers then released all the non-German people, of which Brigitte's family was not included. The people who remained, which Brigitte estimated to be around 8,000 or so, marched to the next town. Once they arrived, they were moved into the town church. A woman, who was a friend of the family, arrived in town looking for the Steins. She brought Brigitte's family to her house where she cared for them until the Partisans came a week later and took everyone in the house to the train station. They were loaded on the train and rode for two hours. When they arrived at the other end, there were more Partisan soldiers waiting to shuffle them to their new residences.
Their new residences were homes that belonged to other Germans. Brigitte explained that most homes at that time had two sections. One was larger and designed for a growing family with children, while the other was smaller and typically housed grandparents. When Brigitte's family arrived, the current owners were moved to the smaller part of the house, and several other families were put in the main house to share. Essentially, they were imprisoned in this house and town. The town was heavily guarded and referred to as "camp."
Young and old started to die in the camp. Throughout these moves, the Stein family still didn't know what had happened to their father and brother. As it turned out, they had been working in a lumber prison camp not too far from the rest of the family. The prisoner "grapevine" allowed Brigitte's father to learn where his family was being held, and he and her brother were able to sneak into the home and stay there with the family.
"Oh that was a happy day!" said Brigitte with smiling, misty eyes.
Brigitte's sister, Sister Engelfriada, smuggled her out of an Austrian internment camp.
Brigitte's older sister smuggles Brigitte and her little sister out of the camp
After a few months, Brigitte's older sister, a nun who had not been living with the family, Sister Engelfriada ( meaning angel of peace), was permitted to visit her family inside the camp. She had heard about all the prisoners in the camp being sick and dying, so she talked her way in with a suitcase full of medicine and food to give her family. Little did she know how perfect her timing was as her family was suffering from Typhus and very, very sick. Brigitte says that within three days of eating and taking the medicine, the entire family recovered.
Sister Engelfriada was able to return again, and this time Brigitte's father told the older sister that she was to take Brigitte and her youngest sister Agnus with her when she left. He wanted to save them, and he told Engelfriada that they would die if she didn't get them out, because they were too young to survive at the camp. Sister Engelfriada smuggled Brigitte and her sister out of the camp and onto the train. Once on the train, they sat on a bench and were not allowed to make a sound for fear someone would hear the girls speak German and put them in danger. Her sister took them to the house of someone she knew, where another sibling, Sister Evelina and their brother, who was a priest, met them. Brigitte's brother took her to Zagreb, Croatia and Sister Evelina took little Agnus to her home. They were separated for a year, then were reunited in Croatia and stayed with Engelfriada in her "Mother House" where they lived for four or five years. While in Croatia, Brigitte attended school. Brigitte said it was difficult because they did not know the language. "It was not fun," she said. "But we had to learn because it was not good to be a German during this time."
Several years later, the rest of her family finally succeeded in escaping the camp by crawling on their bellies in the snow under fences in the middle of winter. They were able to make it to the border into Austria and to one of the refugee camps where the Red Cross helped them.
Brigitte is reunited with her family and meets her future husband
Eventually Brigitte and her little sister were reunited with the rest of family in the Austrian refugee camp. It was there that she met her husband, although she didn't know he would be her husband until years later. The Steins lived in the same barracks as his family and were in youth group together. Brigitte continued to go to school, eventually attending seamstress school where she learned sewing and business. She took a bus every day and finished when she was 18.
It was hard to find a job, but a priest friend told her that the children's surgical hospital needed nurse aids. She was able to get a job there and, even though she had to move away from home, she really liked it! Brigitte worked for three years, and then heard about a seamstress job for a hospital in her family's town. She took that job for better pay!
Brigitte and her future husband had stayed in touch over the years, but then his family moved to America. He didn't want to leave Brigitte, but he went with his family and came to visit her. He missed her so much that on one of his trips in 1964 he asked her to marry him, and he stayed so they could be married.
It took a while to get the approved paperwork for her to leave the country and move to Kansas City. Her husband Ernest was a home builder. They lived with his family in Strawberry Hill until they could afford an apartment on their own. She loved Strawberry Hill, which she described as ethnic and community-oriented. It was so different starting a new life and only knowing German and a little Croatian. She learned English from evening classes, citizenship classes and everyday living. She liked that she had to learn about the United States. Even though it was to pass her test, she thought it was so interesting. Brigitte was happy to come to this country because, "the U.S. had so much opportunity for jobs," she said. Eventually Ernest and Brigitte were able to buy a house, fix it up and raise two daughters, who still live in the area.
Ernest has been gone for 17 years. Brigitte moved to Lakeview in 2014, and said she loves her apartment and being served, loves that her church is across the street and she can hear the bells, and loves that her grandchildren go to school across the street. Once you meet Brigitte, you will see that she is full of love and joy! She told me that it comes from the great gift her parents gave her – faith. "I thank the Lord every day for living here at Lakeview," she said.

Speech Pathologist Enjoys Challenges of Career
Speech Pathology is a true calling for Michelle Hilger.
Michelle Hilger is one of Lakeview Village's on-site speech pathologists. In honor of Better Hearing and Speech Month, we sat down with Michelle to learn more about speech pathology and how it helps enrich lives.
Searching for a Career
When Michelle Hilger arrived at Kansas State University, she was searching for the next, right step. Accordingly, she enrolled in a career and life planning class, where she completed an assessment that, through a series of questions, would point her (she hoped) to a worthwhile career path. Speech Pathologist was at the top of the list.
Armed with this new information, Michelle had a conversation with her father. In his youth, her father had a stutter and worked with a speech therapist. He told Michelle that his therapist was an inspiration. After a little more soul-searching (and job shadowing), Michelle decided to pursue speech pathology.
Finding a Calling as a Speech Pathologist
Now working as a speech pathologist, Michelle hasn't looked back.
Recently, she met a patient who couldn't swallow. His dysphasia was so pronounced, that he was getting all of his nutrition from a feeding tube.
"Food was important to him; when he couldn't eat, he lost pleasure (from eating) and his social life suffered," Michelle said. "His spirits were low."
The pair worked and worked and worked. One day, the patient walked in waving a paper in the air exclaiming, "I passed, I passed!"
One the piece of paper was a note saying that he had passed his video swallow and would be able to eat again.
Speech pathology isn't just for people who need to re-learn to swallow. Michelle assists with all aspects of communication – including teaching patients how to adapt their environments to help cope with memory loss. Michelle has created cards for patients to carry listing their address, so when they ride the Lakeview Village bus, they always remember where to get off. She also makes signs to hang on the back of doors, prompting patients to make sure they have their glasses and keys before they leave their homes.
While some memory loss is normal with aging, Michelle cautions that dementia is not. Thankfully, Michelle has a lot of tips and tricks to keep communication going, even as patients encounter new challenges.
"I worked with a woman who was very emotional about losing her independence," Michelle said. "She had such a drive to be involved in social activities, but she would get embarrassed if she couldn't remember a word and had started to withdrawal."
Michelle told her to just describe the word she was searching for, instead of pausing while she tried to recall it. At her next appointment, the patient told Michelle that the new strategy was working wonderfully.
"She gave me a hug and said, 'I'll always remember you.'"
Innovations in Speech Pathology
Like most occupations today, Speech Pathology is getting a boost from mobile technology. There are smart phone apps that work as memory aids, and some that will even track your volume levels. This new technology is helping people to communicate longer, even in the face of neurological factors, which fascinate Michelle who is certified in LSVT Loud, a program that helps combat the effects of Parkinson 's disease.
While technology and adaptive tips and tricks will help older adults communicate better, the motivation of the patient plays a critical role in the success of therapy.
"I like to find out their story, what motivates them and what (the patient's) goal is, so that I can help them achieve that goal in some form," Michelle said.
Michelle reports that work as a speech pathologist is never boring. She is constantly learning and is given a variety of challenges to tackle. While she initially thought she would work with children, perhaps in honor of her father's therapist, Michelle says she is much more comfortable working with adults.
"(Adults) intrigue me more, and I connect better with adults," Michelle said. "Working with adults felt more like home."
Dynamic Duo: Fred and Grace Holmes Live Their Passions
April 21, 2016	no comments in News & Events	by Brian McDonell
Fred and Grace Holmes, with Arlene and Rex Raudenbush, perform in a barbershop quartet – The Gentlefolk.
Next time there is an open seat beside Fred and Grace Holmes in the dining room at Southridge, I'd suggest you take it. The Holmes's have certainly led fascinating lives, including long stints abroad doing medical missions in developing countries. Grace was one of only three women in her medical school class; certainly she broke down barriers for those that came after her. Fred researched cancer epidemiology at the University of Kansas Medical Center. They raised six children, five of whom were adopted.
What is most engaging about Fred and Grace, though, is their energy. They carry with them the aura that follows people who are living out their passions; it draws you in, inspires you, and, with luck, you can take a little bit of that energy with you to pursue your own passions.
In 2012, the pair published their first book, Tumbili, under the pen name Anne Miller Johnson, M.D. It is a medical mystery set in Africa, combining two things the Holmes's know well: medicine and life in Africa. Fred has since gone on to write three more books, a series, about a doctor in the Pacific Northwest, where the Holmes attended medical school.
In addition to his medical degrees and designations, Fred earned his MA in British History from the University of Kansas. For his thesis, he researched medical problems of the Stuart monarchs of England; it was published in the UK as "The Sickly Stuarts."
The couples' interest in medical history isn't limited to the British. They have also done extensive research into medicine during the First World War. The pair teamed with other medical historians to delve into the archives at the WWI museum, pouring through medical records from Base Hospital #28 in Limoges, France. Essays they wrote as part of this research, and more information about Base Hospital #28 are available online.
Spurred by this research, Grace decided to write a book about the role female nurses played in WWI. So the pair took to research across the country, trying to dig up whatever they could on WWI nurses. During their research they stumbled across the name of a nurse in North Dakota. They called a library in the state looking for information about her. After affirming that there were two pages on the nurse in question, the voice on the other end of the phone said, "Would you like the others?"
A one-time president of an American Legion Auxiliary in North Dakota had many years before collected information on 270 women from the state who had served in some capacity during WWI. Fred and Grace quickly took to digitizing the microfilm and sorting through the interviews. When it was over, there were interviews with 225 North Dakota WWI nurses.
"There were a lot of tender stories," Fred explained. "They (nurses) made a huge impact. They were the last face someone saw as they were dying."
For French and British soldiers, there was always the possibility of visits from family who lived near enough to get to travel to the hospital. For U.S. servicemen, the nurses filled the role of family.
Grace recently signed a contract with a publisher for "North Dakota Nurses Over There" which will be available in April 2017, on the 100th Anniversary of America's declaration of war on Germany.
When not writing or researching, Fred and Grace sing in a barbershop quartet with Arlene and Rex Raudenbush called the Gentlefolk. They both have had a life-long interest in music and have been singing in various choirs and groups for most of their lives.
Whether researching, singing, writing or entertaining, Fred and Grace Holmes live full, rich lives. They are a delightful couple and a wonderful addition to Lakeview Village.
Occupational Therapy Offers Solutions to Daily Challenges
April 6, 2016	no comments in News & Events, Uncategorized	by Brian McDonell
April is national Occupational Therapy month, and the outpatient therapy department at Lakeview Village has planned activities throughout the month to educate our community on occupational therapy and its role in helping seniors live active lives.
What is Occupational Therapy?
When we hear the word 'occupation,' many of us immediately think of a job. If you're retired, why would you need "job" therapy? Occupational therapy refers to any meaningful everyday activity you perform, including those that help you manage your home and personal care. If pain, injury, disease or any other factor are keeping you from your goals, activities or independence, consider occupational therapy.
Do you or a loved one have:
• Trouble reaching into closets or cabinets?
• Numbness/pain in your hands – especially after sleeping?
• Difficulty writing or eating?
• Tremors that interfere with daily tasks?
• History of a stroke and haven't gotten back full use of your arm or hand?
• Arthritis?
• Macular degeneration?
• Decreased or low vision?
• Trouble with fasteners on clothing or objects?
Lakeview Village occupational therapists can work with you to help you reach your maximum potential. The outpatient therapy team practices person-centered care. That means our occupational therapist will work to help you reach the goals that are important to you.
Help managing Parkinson's Disease
Lakeview Village occupational therapists are trained in the LSVT BIG® treatment program for those with Parkinson's Disease. This innovative program has increased amplitude (bigness) of limb and body movement that translated to improved speed and balance for those who received therapy. Participants also enjoy increased independence and a better quality of life.
Occupational Therapy is available to Lakeview Village residents and to the Kansas City community at large. Once you are referred by your physician or have requested therapy services, your appointment will be scheduled within 48 hours. Your therapist will complete an evaluation and develop an individualized plan of care. We accept Medicare, private insurance, Worker's Compensation, and private pay. Prior to your first visit, our staff will assist you with insurance verification and coverage questions.

How parents can help their children during exams pressure?
If there is one point in parenting every Indian hates to go through, it's the fear of exams, especially school exams given that a good score is likely to take you places and a bad one (apparently!) guaranteeing you a good length of time in bad places! But all said and done, the fear persists.
How then do you reduce the fear of exams; what is it you need to do to overcome exam fear and relieve stress?
Preparing much, much before exams: If these exams are that important, one time-tested way to decrease exam-related stress is to make them study months (if not years) before the exams which shall give them enough time to study, revise and feel very, very confident with every subject. Along with the study, one way how to overcome exam fears is to approach the right folks who know more about patterns and types of studies to be followed. By understand the same, one can study just what is needed and get very good marks in the exams.
Doing exercises to increase concentration and ability to study long hours: You could be the ace of exams but you still may fail due to other reasons. In our run to do well while decreasing exam stresses, most times we forget to keep ourselves fit and strong. A weak body cannot take long hours of a slog. One must, therefore, exercise well, include breathing and stretching exercises such as yoga and keep themselves fit so that long hours do not trouble anymore. Also, meditation is best to increase concentration while decreasing stresses which build-up during studies.
Measuring the child's aptitude to understand the right course he/ she ought to pursue. The easiest way to get over exam stress is to choose the exam which your child/ ward can pass confidently. Most of the time it is the parent's insistence that sees a child pick-up certain fields which in the long run appears to be detrimental. It would be much better where one picks-up a course of one's choice and interest, and of course aptitude and where one can sure as hell, do very well. By doing this, one can be reasonably free from exam tensions.
Study the right way to maximize the output. Studying well is a science and an art in itself! Science because there are people who have found the best and most reliable path to studying humongous quantities of information and doing rather well in exams. Art it is called as one has to have an individual aptitude, a focus and a determination to do well despite every possible distraction. It thus makes sense to approach no only coaching classes but also those who can teach you how to study well and effectively with a view to studying a large number of subjects in all their subjects.
These are then some of the ways on how parents can help their children during exams pressure! Stay tuned for more in time to come.

Following on from the review of the ward boundaries of the City carried out by the Electoral Commission over the last 2 years, the City Council will now have 16 Wards each returning 3 Councillors.
This reduces the number of Councillors overall from 57 to 48.
This year ALL the seats on the council are up for election.
The key changes for Broughton are that the boundaries of the Preston Rural East Ward have changed to include Whittingham Parish. The ward now comprises of the Parishes of Broughton, Grimsagh, Haighton & Whittingham with 3 Councillors to be elected.
Residents registered to vote should have received a polling card and can place their vote on the day at any polling station. For an interactive map of polling stations in the Preston area, see below.
Those registered to vote by post will soon receive a postal voting pack. You should complete this and return it by post as soon as possible, although you can also hand in your completed (and properly sealed) voting pack at any polling station on 2nd May.


The winning team was able to use a groundbreaking technique in successfully 'overclocking' a computer – the computer is able to run faster without any negative side effects.
The school says that the experiment involved submersing a computer's electrical components in a non-conductive cooling liquid. This allowed for the computer to process an increased number of commands without over-heating. The team ran hour long stress tests where the computer was pushed beyond its limit. The computer's temperature was monitored throughout the stress tests.
F2 Chemicals (note: F2 Chemicals provided the 'fluorocarbon' cooling liquid).
In terms of legacy, the faster running computer has found a new home in the school's Technology department. Here, students and teachers often run complicated computer programs that cannot be run to their maximum potential on the school's standard computers.
Congratulations once again to Penwortham Priory Academy!


Netflix is bringing back its kid-centric countdowns for parents who want their children out of sight long before they ring in the New Year.
Netflix claims most parents fool their kids (or try to, anyway) into believing that midnight happens earlier than it actually does on New Year's. Netflix helps them by offering a streaming three-minute countdown led by characters from kid's show.
Ring in the new year whenever you want, with six different short videos featuring characters from kids' shows. Each one is about 2 minutes long and ends with the 10-second countdown to the new year. Pull it up on the screen at 8pm, and hustle your toddler off to bed before your game night (at least, that's how I'm celebrating New Year's Eve).
Your options are: Care Bears, Inspector Gadget, Peabody and Sherman, King Julien, Project Mc², and Puffin Rock.
Celebrate 2016 on your time! Talon tries to ruin the New Year's party, but Inspector Gadget, Penny and Brain leap into action to save the surprise.
Another thing revealed by FlixSearch fascinates me a bit: The short is available on Netflix not only in the United States, but also in Canada, the UK, Ireland, Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, Australia and New Zealand. All the while the regular series is still only seen in the US. It seems this New Year's short is targeted not only towards users of the American Netflix, but also toward people who may have watched the new Gadget series on TV channels like Boomerang or Teletoon in the above-mentioned list of countries.
At any rate, what does all this tell us? Firstly, it feels like a pretty solid indicator that the new Inspector Gadget is a hit on Netflix in the States: this short was by all accounts commissioned directly by Netflix, unlike the regular series; and Gadget is one of six kids' shows selected to ring in the new year. Secondly, "New Year's Eve Countdown" is probably the first true "bonus material" to emerge from the reboot. It's not part of the 26 half-hours of the regular TV series in any way, nor a trailer or a teaser. Whether it will be released through other venues than Netflix remains to be seen. It would certainly be nice to see it as a special feature on Universal's Australian DVD and VOD releases (Season 1 Volume 4 is still slated for January 14 next year), but I wouldn't hold my breath. For one thing, it probably depends on how exclusive Netflix's rights are to this specific short -- and my guess is they may be more exclusive than the TV series.


Interpreting service is needed in many countries around the world, for various reasons – legal and court proceedings, for health and hospital care systems, immigration purposes, infrastructure management, business dealings, just to name a few.
Interpreters 'connect' people and communities, but not anyone who is adept in a required language can fulfill the interpreting needs. A high quality interpretation can only be provided by someone with extensive experience, and has diverse knowledge of terminology and familiarity in the field. A professional, who is guided by a high standard code of ethics.
Here's an interesting video that gives a glimpse about the big difference a professional interpreter can do to somebody's life. Enjoy!

Sinclair Launches Drone Number 10 at San Antonio Station
NEXT:Here are the Social Media Leaders in Denver

FOX Affiliates | ShopTalk
By Kevin Eck on Jan. 20, 2017 - 12:27 PM Comment
San Antonio Fox affiliate KABB became the 10th Sinclair-owned station to launch a drone this week.
"Our viewers love video from drones and we want to provide that view to them as new medium that we can show them news events of all the things we currently cover, but from a different perspective," said Sinclair UAS chief pilot, Jeff Rose.
In September, we wrote about Sinclair's commitment to have 80 trained and FAA-certified drone pilots in 40 markets by the end of 2017.
The station put its chief photographer Lalo Garcia and its operations manager Luis Escamilla through training at Virginia Tech University to pass the FAA UAS Pilot Exam.
"Our drone program is off to a great start, with safety being the top priority," said Rose. "Our policy is to have two operators for each aircraft; one to fly the drone and one to focus solely on the photography. We also meet with local law enforcement as part of our training and before we begin operations. We think establishing coordination protocols at the outset with police, fire and other first responders is critical for the safety of our communities as we incorporate the use of this new technology."

As I worked through it I felt sadness, anxious and nervous, my body trembled slightly, moments of crying as I processed the experience. I continued to sit, allowing myself to feel what I needed to experience, it was difficult I realized I had put a lot of distance between my brother and I, because of the actions of my brother, the choices I made had created a feeling of loss and distance where we had always been very close as brothers.
I didn't know him anymore, I wore an invisible shield to protect myself, I took on a controlling nature, thinking I was protecting myself, keeping things under control so I could maintain my comfort level.

Thank you Diane your encouragement is appreciated more than you know, blessed be your journey.
Hi Fred, you have all the tools in your hand. Keep going and you know better than I that "…if a negative thought enters your mind…use any fond memory or pleasant thought." Love and Gratitude.
Thank you for your encouragement Dominique, wishing you all the best on your personal journey.
Wow Fred! You've had a real breakthrough here! I'm proud of your courage to let it wash over you instead of moving on quickly. You are really becoming your future self! All the best to you!
Thank you Dennis, the course is a challenge for us all, the only way to change our blueprint and become our future self is through our willingness to do the work and stand up to the challenges along the way. Thank you for your support wishing you the best in your own personal journey.
You post interesting articles here. Your page deserves much more visitors.
Thank you Bonnie wishing you well in all your endeavors.
Fred you are wished so much love as you continue on this important path you are traveling with all your Team members! This being the week of "Harmony" and the concentrated effort we are to put into acquiring it with our sits, hopefully the timing is just right for you. I certainly need a massive dose with my relationship with my brother!
Janet thank you for your thoughts and well wishes, the timing always appears when we need it, this has been a great experience, challenging but great.
It's strange, isn't it, the kind of self-destructive things we do in the mistaken idea we're protecting ourselves. I hope you've succeeded in breaking down that invisible shield that prevents you from becoming your authentic self.
It was a revelation for me I had no idea what I had done, the distancing, the walls, the workings of the mind in the name of protecting ourselves.

Q: Twitter authentication with iOS My app has twitter integration using the IOS5 twitter integration which is very easy to use and implement. My question is, is it possible to implement a sign in feature using this framework similar to one used by TweetCaster. On that app, you sign in using twitter, you get a permissions page and if you accept you can post straight to twitter from the app.
With my current integration in the app, you type in tweet in textbox in the app, click tweet button, then the Tweet controller opens up, and then you click the send button.
I would prefer them to compose the message in the app in a textview, (a hashtag would be shown which would be added onto whatever they type) then when they click send it goes straight to twitter without opening the twitter screen first.
Do these apps use the inbuilt twitter API with IOS5? Or do they use a 3rd party kit to handle this authentication?
Edit:
Apples guidelines say
"Although you may perform Twitter requests on behalf of the user, you cannot append text, images, or URLs to tweets without the user's knowledge. Hence, you can set the initial text and other content before presenting the tweet to the user but cannot change the tweet after the user views it"
Regarding the twitter framework. So I am guessing that means I cannot just append the tag onto the end of whatever they type.
I was thinking would it be possible then to have the user type in their tweet, then when they click done, a new window would appear with a textview with whatever they typed with the hashtag I want added on. This textview would not be editable, to prevent them from removing the hashtag, then they click send which would go straight to twitter. Or would Apple guidelines still have an issue with this style?

A: No, at the moment you cannot do this with the built in twitter framework. However, you should check out its alternatives: not only do they have additional features, but also work with older versions of iOS (3/4). These are developed by 3rd parties, but are of good enough quality to be listed on the twitter dev site: https://dev.twitter.com/docs/twitter-libraries#objectivec
The downside is that you might loose some of the simplicity of Apple's version of the framework
PS I've worked with MGTwitterEngine - it's quite nice :)

14 IVECO Daily 55S8H 4x4s have been equipped with Fassi F32A crane
Published: 29th July 2019
Fassi Gru has equipped 14 Daily 4x4s with F32A.0.23 cranes for the client Terna on behalf of IVECO.
The first 14 IVECO Daily 55S8H 4x4s manufactured in the Bolzano plant have been equipped with Fassi F32A cranes and snowploughs by the Briccolani company.
As soon as they were registered, they were delivered to Terna's various AOT (Operational Transmission Area) centres spread throughout Italy and then immediately put into service. The 14 IVECO Daily 55S8H 4x4s, the first from the new range manufactured in the Bolzano plant, will be joining another six similar vehicles already in operation since January 2018. This is a significant delivery from Iveco CNH, which has chosen to equip their vehicles with Fassi F32A.0.23 cranes. It is a complex fitting that best responds to the requirements of Terna, one of the most important grid operators for the transmission of energy throughout Europe and the manager of the Italian high-voltage network, one of the most modern and technologically advanced in Europe.
The fittings were carried out by the company Briccolani S.r.l., located in Terra del Sole in the province of Forlì, which has been handling fitting operations on behalf of Fassi Gru for more than forty years for public organisations such as Terna, Enel, Autostrade, and Anas, to name but a few. As well as the Fassi F32A.0.23 triple-boom cranes with radio remote controller and set-up for the FAB 1S personnel lifter basket, the vehicles are also equipped with an Orsi/Assaloni PK2450 snowplough, a fixed truck bed and an Orlandi A50-XS towing hook and also have a residual load capacity of 1,500 kg.
"We are particularly satisfied with this delivery that, in collaboration with IVECO, allows us to consolidate our relationship with Terna," stated Mauro Dellacasa, Fassi Gru's Sales Director for Italy. "As well as carrying out personalised fittings which are optimised for various types of work, Fassi also guarantees Terna a wide-spread after-sales network capable of supplying a rapid and professional response to all maintenance requirements and any potential problems requiring assistance."

Q: Find torque due to Lorentz force - Wrong result
Current I is coming from the Z axis and then it flows out uniformly towards the circumference of this disk. The disk has thickness t and Radius R. There is also a constant B field in the Z direction(going up). I am asked to find the torque exerted on the disk. Here is my attempt:
I assume an angle $d\phi$ as shown in the picture and imagine that the current flows through the arc corresponding to that angle. The area of the arc with the thickness t is $A=Rd\phi t $
Now I will find $dI$ using the fact that we have uniform distribution
$J=I/A=>dI=JdA=JRd \phi t= \frac{IRd\phi t}{R2 \pi t}=>$ $$dI=\frac{Id\phi}{2\pi}$$
Now I can write $dF$ in terms of $\phi$:
$$dF=dI(R \times B)=\frac{Id\phi}{2\pi}RB$$
$$F=\int_0^πdF=BIR/2$$
I integrated from 0 to π because of the symmetry and since the forces are couples $$T=(F)(2R)=-BIR^2\hat z$$
My notes say that the result should be $\frac{-BIR^2}{2}\hat z$. And it seems I oversimplified the problem. The solution from the notes also assumes a small radius dp and uses other coordinates. Have I skipped some part which I am not allowed to ? Why is my result wrong?

A: Once you have dF at every point, it becomes a classical mechanics problem. Use the integral definition of torque. Since the mass distribution is homogeneous, and the magnetic field is constant, it follows that dF=constant*dm. The force will be proportional to mass, hence the resultant force can be applied at the center of mass, and taking the torque wherever from there will give you a result.

A: Because I think it should be (F)(R), instead of multiplying F by 2R. You are taking the torque with respect to the center of mass after all.

Commentary on Leviticus 20:10-27
(Read Leviticus 20:10-27)
These verses repeat what had been said before, but it was needful there should be line upon line. What praises we owe to God that he has taught the evil of sin, and the sure way of deliverance from it! May we have grace to adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things; may we have no fellowship with unfruitful works of darkness, but reprove them.

"Les vacances, c'est en France": Macron's five year tourism plan
News, Travel, 🇫🇷 France
Portugal announces new easing of measures
Tourists numbers down 83% but confidence slowly rising

President of France Emmanuel Macron has unveiled a five-year plan to "reinvent" the country's tourism model. Speaking yesterday from Saint-Cirq-Lapopie in the Lot, where he is currently as part of a tour around the country, Macron declared that this year "Holidays are in France".

1. Support for the industry
Macron showed his support for the tourism industry, assuring that, "holidays will be possible this summer" and encouraging the French people to go ahead and book their trips, preferably in France. "In particular, I want to say in 2021, the holidays are in France and it's even better", he added. Praising the country's "magnificent countryside" and "sublime villages", he urged that "in France we therefore have the possibility of welcoming our compatriots in the best conditions".
Tourism in France, as in many other countries, has struggled greatly during the Covid-19 crisis, particularly during the summer of 2020 which saw almost no foreign tourists. Macron announced a new five year plan for tourism, involving investments in the sector in addition to the aid already provided to help deal with the health crisis. He stated, "The sector, which has benefited from 30 billion in aid since the start of the crisis (…) will benefit from a new plan to reconquer and reinvent the model".

2. The new tourism plan: "reinvention of the model"
The new plan involves several aspects, one being "fully enhancing our heritage, and therefore having a 'green tourism, heritage tourism' strategy and investing there too" in order to "highlight (…) our natural heritage, our architectural heritage " which will be "in synergy with our tourist offer", Macron announced. He stated that the plan will also "improve the quality of our infrastructures" and "increase our reception capacity", by helping professionals to invest and by continuing to invest "in our tourism infrastructures, whether they are cycle paths, transport conditions, reception, etc." and to " develop our hotel offer, our offer in terms of campsites ".
Another aspect to the new plan is "improved training, improved qualifications, and lifelong support". Macron announced, "We are going to invest to improve, to allow bridges between the various trades of the tourism sector, hotels, cafes, restaurants, of all modes of reception". He also promised investments in digital, saying, "We reserve through digital technology and sometimes it is foreign platforms that capture part of the value. (…) What we want is to help invest in the whole sector, so that companies in the tourism sector can themselves digitise but also build our French platforms in order to keep value in our country".

Q: Idiom for smart_ptr's and virtual functions In a code I'm writing, I want to rely as much as possible on smart pointers. I have now the problem, that when I want to use dynamic dispatch (which is basically not a problem with smart pointers), in the virtual function that gets called, this is again a bare pointer and is stripped of all the smart pointer info.
To make this clear, consider the following base class
class Base {
  virtual smart_ptr<Base> do_stuff(int some_param);
}

and a fragment where this class and a derived class is used;
smart_ptr<Base> ptr = smart_ptr<Base>( new Derived(param1) );
smart_ptr<Base> foo = ptr->do_stuff(2);

For the do_stuff implementation in Derived it should be possible to return just the original smart pointer, or a new smart pointer wrapping the old one or even a completely new object. Of course, when I say "the original smart pointer" it doesn't have to be the same object, but it needs to link to the same  administrative info (like ref counter, or linked list or whatever) as ptr. I clearly won't get that using smart_ptr<Base>(this), but what are the alternatives?  The only alternatives that I currently see, are

*

*Pass the smart pointer also into do_stuff like do_stuff(smart_ptr<Base> This, int some_param), assert that this == This.get() and then work with This?

*Keep the smart pointers in a global hashtable (or static member in Base) and make a lookup in do_stuff into that table (like This = Base::ptrs[this])?

Both of them are pretty ugly. The first can be made a bit nicer by

*Renaming do_stuff to do_stuff_, making it protected and providing a friend function do_stuff(smart_ptr<Base> ptr, int param), which returns ptr->do_stuff_(ptr, param).

However, I don't like that friend function business for methods that should rather be class members. Is there any nice C++ idiom out there that I've seen yet? It should preferable work with C++03.
