Signature/Mark/Chop: The signature and marks below are divided into two sections: Works by David Lambert and Lambert Potteries Ltd. The Lambert Pottery Ltd. marks, stamps and signatures show a variety of formats over the years.
David Lambert. "The Little Stick Family David/63" signature on raised foot.
David Lambert title, handwritten signature, and date, 1967, in the recessed foot of rectangular plate. The "Vancouver B.C. Canada" part of the label on the right suggests this work was part of an international shipment of works.
Possible David Lambert mark in sgraffito on the base of pot date 1978. I have included this mark above since it is similar to one David Lambert showed me on his work during our interview in 1981. Further research or confirmation are welcome.
Lambert Potteries Ltd, with location, title, production number, "HAND PAINTED" designation, and designer's initial/mark, on a recessed base.
"LAMBERT POTTERIES LTD label on a smooth base with production number, "#10" and "SARDIS B.C." Not dated.
Lambert Potteries Ltd, combination decal-type and hand drawn title and production line number, on a flat base. Not dated.
Lambert Potteries Ltd. with impressed label stamp "LAMBERT POTTERIES LTD. HAND PAINTED VANCOUVER BC" with overglaze title and production number.
When I talked with David Lambert in 1981 I felt I was interviewing a not only a potter, but also an engineer, an entrepreneur and animateur. His thoughts and words ranged from the aesthetic, to the technical, to the pragmatic and to the commercial. Although there was pride he was unaffected. He talked as of a life story, not of some grand conquest.
Called sometimes the "Father" ³ or "Godfather" 4 of British Columbia ceramics today he is spoken of and written about with a certain reverence.
Lambert served in the Royal Canadian Engineers in Europe during World War II. This provided the opportunity to develop his skills as something of a "Jack of all trades" ¹ that were to prove useful in his later life.
At the time, British Columbia and Vancouver did not have an Indigenous or studio pottery heritage but did have a healthy clay industry using fire clays and refractories to produce bricks and pipes. Lambert was to exploit these materials and contacts in his early years.
He would use this location as a base of operations, later moving to Ryder Lake near Sardis, BC, just outside of Vancouver.5 A 1974 photograph shows Lambert in his home and studio, which also seemed to be a storage and packing area.
Later he would move to using electric kilns and to favour earthenware to preserve design colours, firing at lower temperatures.
The pottery situation was not barren in Vancouver at the time but there was not yet the market for full-time studio pottery. Any potter who wanted to strive to a "professional" level had to also have a full-time job and income as support.
Lambert did not subscribe to Leach's interest in leaving the hands of the maker evident on the final work. Aesthetically he was more inclined to the other major stream of twentieth ceramics, modernism and the influence of the Bauhaus. This, tied in with the then current, nationalistic vogue for native BC materials and inspirational sources, influenced his design choices: stick figures and the indigenous Northwest coast designs.
He subscribed to the more "anonymous" finish of an industrial production, very much in the European and British industrial traditions of the time. Individuality in the production-works, apart from the quality of the designs, was relegated to a worker's simple initial as part of the inscription on the base of the work. David himself would design or initial his own works using his own name or sometimes a symbol incorporating his initials.
Meanwhile there were other major developments in the BC pottery scene. On the business side Stan and Jean Clarke had started selling pottery materials and supplies as Greenbarn Pottery.¹ Along with materials becoming more available knowledge, teachers and artists from the United States were gradually working their way north. It was the McCarthy era.
But selling was still tough.

The indigenous designs started about 1951 and ran to about 1970. He maintained that he himself didn't create that many.¹ The vast number of such works bear the marks and signatures of the "cottage industry" producers. The design quality was also thus quite variable. He also wrote a booklet, 'the story of west coast designs' to help in the marketing of this new series. The booklet lists not only the rationale for the design lines but also the "stories" behind the images he collected along with lists of the types of ware produced.
The use of such indigenous subject matter is now considered suspect in today's awareness of cultural appropriation, especially considering the profit motive. However, in talking with Lambert I sensed he believed, as a man of his times, that he was connecting with indigenous people in his research, and his attempting to understand their stories and symbols.
Examples of this series of works are in museum and private collections, and widely circulated on the secondary market such as Pinterest, eBay and online auction houses.
Yet he was still producing his own work and using his home/studio in Sardis as a storage, packing, distribution centre.
David Lambert died in 1985. his contributions to the development of ceramics in British Columbia are fondly respected by his contemporaries and present-day artists. Awards for post secondary British Columbia ceramics students have been established in his honour. The works he and his business created are collected internationally, in museum and private collections, and are also a lively feature of the secondary auction and online markets.

A proposal to stem the flow of migrants trekking to the southern border is revealing the limitations of deterrence policy.
While it's not the first time the U.S. has tried to discourage migrants from making the trek to the southern border, the proposed measure raises questions about the effectiveness of deterrence policy and how far an administration is willing to go to keep migrants at bay.
The United States has long relied on deterrence policy as a way of dissuading migrants from entering the country illegally. This has been true under Democratic and Republican administrations alike. In 2014, following a surge of Central American migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border, the Obama administration tried to discourage migrants from heading to the border through an ad campaign. Customs and Border Protection warned anyone considering coming north that it was too dangerous and that entering illegally would preclude them from obtaining legal status.
But what deterrence policy, or any attempt to stoke fear among migrants, may not take into account are the circumstances in their origin countries that drive migration in the first place. "It's hard to think that a family—a mother fleeing with her children who is quite literally trying to save their lives—is going to be deterred by being separated from her children," said Maureen Meyer, the director for Mexico and migrant rights at the Washington Office on Latin America.
Still, immigration restrictionists believe that fewer migrants would embark on the trip north if the administration were to implement the family separation policy. "The parents that would undertake this perilous journey to the United States would be less likely to do it if they knew they would be separated from their kids," Andrew R. Arthur, a resident fellow at the Center for Immigration Studies, which supports reduced immigration, told the Post.
Any change to U.S. immigration policy is likely to alter the flow of migrants to the country, though not always in the way that might be expected. In a 2016 article called "Why Border Enforcement Backfired," Douglas Massey, a professor of sociology and public affairs at Princeton, Jorge Durand of the Centro de Investigación y Docencia Económica in Mexico City, and Karen Pren, the manager of the Mexican Migration Project at Princeton's Office of Population Research, found that increased border enforcement led undocumented immigrants to stay in the U.S. for a longer period of time.
"It's clear that U.S. immigration policy has a pretty dramatic effect on the migration flow of immigrants either to encourage or discourage [migrants], sometimes in ways that weren't anticipated," said Tom Gjelten, the author of A Nation of Nations: A Great American Immigration Story.
The proposal to separate children from their parents also poses another set of challenges. The Department of Health and Human Services, which keeps undocumented children in shelters until they find a sponsor, is already overwhelmed—a problem that could be exacerbated if more children are sent to their shelters. And families, afraid to risk separation at the border, may be vulnerable to traffickers and smugglers.
The policy is not yet a done deal. The proposal has reportedly been approved by Immigration and Customs Enforcement, but DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen has yet to sign off on it. At the very least, however, the measure falls in line with the administration's approach to immigration: stoking fear among potential migrants to keep them from coming to the United States illegally.


Neville Hobson has an interesting take on the New York Times story about Wal-Mart, Edelman PR and bloggers. Neville's view is he doesn't think that Edelman account supervisor Marshall Manson was sufficiently up front in disclosing his affiliation.
Hello. I hope you're well. I just wanted to drop you a line and introduce myself. I'm a blogger myself (I contribute to Confirm Them and Human Events' blogs among others), but for my day job – I do online public affairs for Wal-Mart, working with Mike Krempasky who runs Redstate.com.
Hello. I hope you're well. I just wanted to drop you a line and introduce myself. I'm a blogger myself (I contribute to Confirm Them and Human Events' blogs among others). For my day job, I'm a senior account supervisor at Edelman PR where I do online public affairs for Wal-Mart, working with Mike Krempasky, the head of Edelman's online public affairs department, who also runs Redstate.com.
Personally I think they are both quite good. Interestingly Neville keeps in the bit that I think is really bad "I hope you're well" is just too cheesy and insincere in your first email to someone you don't know.
The most significant difference between the two is Neville's says "I'm a senior account supervisor at Edelman PR".
External PR consultant based at PR company's office and only working for one client.
External PR consultant based at client's office and only working for that client.
Full-time in-house PR based in company's office.
All of these are 'real' examples of scenarios I've either experienced or seen. You can probably think of lots of other possibilities.Why is it such a big deal what someone's employment status is? Is a big PR company better or worse than a small one? Is either different to a freelance?
So the question is what is full disclosure? Do all of these people have to declare their employment status? Or only some of them? If so which ones and why?
The crucial thing for me is knowing what their affiliation is. I want to know who's angle they are pushing. The Edelman email makes this crystal clear in the second sentence (Neville's version does it in the third!) when it says "I do online public affairs for Wal-Mart". I just don't see how you can be any clearer than that..
Is it because Edelman is a huge PR company?
Neville does say that "Seeing 'Edelman' in the email signature, you may not make any connection with the professional capacity of your correspondent especially if you're not in the PR community yourself."
I'm not sure what is meant by this. If it was a smaller PR company then even people in the PR community wouldn't know who it was. And if they didn't then what benefit would they get from including a phrase such as "I'm a senior account supervisor at Acme PR". It doesn't tell me anything relevant. I already know they do "online public affairs for Wal-Mart". Why am I interested in the name of their company?
I'm all for full disclosure but everyone – be they bloggers, journalists or consumers – has to take responsibility for their own actions. Edelman didn't seek to hide who they were. It was in the email so everyone who received it knew. If it mattered to them who Edelman was, and they didn't already know, then it would take all of five seconds on Google to find out.
I agree that blogger relations needs a different approach to media relations but I don't think that you have to treat bloggers as if they are daft.
Next post: Blogging requires passion and authority. Which leaves out most people.
This isn't about whether you work for a big PR agency or not. It's about open, up-front and full disclosure.
I don't think the Edelman employee made sufficient disclosure, especially where the wording shown in the email transcripts is ambiguous. The first paragraph, for instance, could give the impression that the writer works for Wal-Mart itself.
And the email signature shown in the transcripts is equally ambiguous if you're not in the PR community or know who Edelman is.
The point, though, to me is why wouldn't the writer want to give full and unequivocal disclosure in order to be wholly clear and transparent as to his relationship with Wal-Mart?
That's certainly what I would have done, ie, be unequivocal.
Like you say, the issue is education. Journalists understand that PR is often outsourced and many bloggers don't. Consequently there's a certain amount of wheel re-invention and focus on irrelevance.
The issue is that Manson speaks for Wal-Mart and he's open about that. In this case he does work for Wal-Mart, so nobody's been misled in any way.
Similarly, if you're attending an event on behalf of a client you're more likely to have the client's name on your badge than that of your consultancy and to introduce yourself as the client's representative, all of which is true. You're there to push your client's business not your own.
Nevertheless, his status as an Edelman employee might be relevant if it shows some connection to potentially competing, conflicting or conspiring businesses.
Looking at it from the outside – the important point is 'PR.' For many people that has specific connotations that need explaining. The fact it is Edelman IS important. They are an extremely powerful organisation. IMO.
"So the question is what is full disclosure? Do all of these people have to declare their employment status? Or only some of them? If so which ones and why?"
Full Disclosure in my view has to do with appropriate disclosure to the relevant public you are addressing. So determining this would involve invoking a rule somewhat similiar to the "need to know basis" within military operations.
2. What am I disclosing?
3. Why do I want to disclose or fail to disclose this bit of information?
4. Where would I disclose such info? Within a private meeting or within some larger group dynamic?
5. When should I disclose?
As you move through the answers to these questions, it is likely you will arrive at some answers.
Naturally, if you are working within any sector and any capacity, you should have a copy of your agency's contract right in front of you while you are reviewing these questions.
The scope of your agency relationship for your client is determined by your agreement. That is one thing that seems to escape so many PR Practitioners these days; the fact that if you are working, you are doing so under an agency agreement of some type.
This creates both the need for discretion and disclosure that is guided by the fiduciary responsiblilites incumbent within the agency relationship as guided by the agreement to service.


MOBILE WORLD CONGRESS 2018 – More than any other generation of wireless, 5G is seeing research and input from a vast array of companies, universities and research institutions. At Mobile World Congress 2018 in Barcelona (February 26 – March 1, 2018), wireless research and development company InterDigital is placing the emphasis on collaboration, with demo technologies and solutions that are designed from the start to form the basis for open research collaboration. Under the banner of "Creating the Living Network.™ Together." InterDigital is highlighting technologies and research that underpin its network of more than 100 research collaborators across more than a dozen projects worldwide.
5G Testbeds: Industry testbeds are validating 5G technology and demonstrating interoperability among an ecosystem of research collaborators. InterDigital will showcase two platforms, EdgeLink™ 60Hz Platform and Flexible IP-based Services Platform (FLIPS), that have been used in global field trials in conjunction with projects that include 5G-Crosshaul, 5TONIC, Bristol is Open, FLAME, PAWR, and 5G-Transformer, among others.
5G Air Interface: The millimeter wave (mmWave) air interface is one of the key new technologies being introduced into 3GPP's 5G NR standard. The company will show its contribution to the Open Air Interface Alliance, fundamental concepts enabling mmWave 5G integration with the existing LTE standard in non-standalone mode.
5G Video Experience: As an active contributor to the next generation video standard development, InterDigital will demonstrate an end-to-end 360 video live streaming platform with AR capabilities built on a series of state-of-the-art video standards.
5G Networks: The major trend in 5G networks is that of combining connectivity, computing and storage resources into a rich fabric of networked elements, implementing network-based as well as terminal-based software functions. The company will showcase how its FLIPS platform, utilized in numerous EU projects including RIFE, POINT and FLAME, takes advantage of this trend by providing a software-based solution on top of proliferating 5G technologies.
In addition to demonstrations, InterDigital will host "Delivering the 5G Experience with Mobile Edge Services" and "Research Directions for 5G and Beyond Testbeds," two live panel discussions featuring participants from Intel, Nokia, Martel, and University Carlos III of Madrid, among others, on Wednesday, February 28 at 10 a.m. and 11 a.m. CET, respectively.
Attendees of Mobile World Congress can see the panel discussions along with 5G and IoT demos at InterDigital's pavilion in Hall 7, Stand 7C61.

Charles Gates Dawes (* 27. August 1865 in Marietta, Ohio; † 23. April 1951 in Evanston, Illinois) war ein US-amerikanischer Bankier und Politiker sowie Begründer des nach ihm benannten Dawes-Plans, für den er 1925 den Friedensnobelpreis erhielt. Von 1925 bis 1929 war er Vizepräsident der Vereinigten Staaten.

Leben und Werk

Frühe Jahre und Ausbildung
Charles Dawes war ein Urenkel von William Dawes, einem bekannten Teilnehmer des Unabhängigkeitskrieges, und Sohn eines Brigadegenerals. Er machte 1884 seinen Abschluss am Marietta College und 1886 an der Cincinnati Law School. Danach arbeitete er von 1887 bis 1894 in Lincoln, Nebraska als Anwalt. 1889 heiratete er Caro Blymyer, mit der er zwei Kinder hatte und zwei adoptierte.

Politische Laufbahn und Karriere
Dawes unterstützte 1896 die Wahl William McKinleys zum US-Präsidenten und wurde im Gegenzug von diesem ab 1898 als Währungskommissar der US-Regierung (Comptroller of the Currency) eingesetzt. In dieser Funktion konnte er eine Reform des Bankenwesens durchsetzen; außerdem arbeitete er gegen die Monopolisierung von Wirtschaftsunternehmen. Nachdem McKinley 1901 ermordet worden war, zog sich Dawes erst einmal aus der Politik zurück und wurde Aufsichtsratsvorsitzender einer bekannten Bank in Chicago.

1901 kandidierte er in Illinois erfolglos für den US-Senat; in der Folge setzte er sich für soziale Dienste ein. So gründete er 1913 in Chicago das R. F. Dawes Hotel for Men, eine Einrichtung für Obdachlose. Während des Ersten Weltkrieges diente er zunächst als Major, anschließend als Oberstleutnant und zuletzt als Brigadegeneral unter General John J. Pershing im Nachschubwesen. Für seine militärischen Verdienste wurde er mit der Army Distinguished Service Medal ausgezeichnet. 1919 verließ er die Armee und wurde 1921 erster Direktor der neuen Haushaltsbehörde, des Bureau of the Budget.

1923 wurde Dawes zur alliierten Reparationskommission versetzt und erarbeitete dort den nach ihm benannten Dawes-Plan. Gemeinsam mit Owen D. Young sollte er ein Konzept entwickeln, das zu einer finanziellen Entspannung der Situation in Europa dienen sollte. Mit Hilfe dieses Planes sollte Deutschland seine Reparationszahlungen bezahlen können, die nach dem Krieg eingefordert wurden, und eine Stabilisierung der deutschen Währung erreicht werden. Der Plan lag im April 1924 vor und sah eine Finanzierung über amerikanische Anleihen vor. Damit wurde die Situation entspannt und ein Grundstein für die Unterzeichnung der Verträge von Locarno war gelegt. Dawes erhielt 1925 für seine Arbeit an einem Programm, um die deutsche Wirtschaft zu stabilisieren, den Friedensnobelpreis.

Bei der Präsidentschaftswahl 1924 war er Running Mate des Republikaners Calvin Coolidge und wurde nach seinem Wahlsieg am 5. November 1924 zum 4. März 1925 US-Vizepräsident. Seine Amtszeit endete am 4. März 1929. Von 1929 bis 1932 war er als Nachfolger von Alanson B. Houghton Botschafter der Vereinigten Staaten im Vereinigten Königreich. Anschließend kehrte er zum Bankwesen zurück und war bis zu seinem Tod Chairman of the Board der City National Bank and Trust Co. in Chicago, wo er auch beerdigt wurde.

Dawes als Komponist
Dawes hat sich als Autodidakt Klavier und Komposition beigebracht. Zu seiner Komposition von 1912, Melody in A Major, schrieb 1951 Carl Sigman unter dem Titel It's All in the Game einen Text. Das Lied wurde später von Künstlern wie Tommy Edwards, Van Morrison, Cliff Richard und Elton John aufgegriffen.

Afghanistan: Taliban resurgence is a "made in USA" tragedy
Chaos in Kabul as Taliban retake Afghanistan. Twenty years since the US-NATO imperialist intervention in the country, the consequences for the Afghani people are more than devastating. The slogans of "freedom", "security", "democracy" and "peace", which the U.S imperialists and their allies used as a pretext for the 2001 military invasion, within the framework of the so-called "War against Terrorism", were proved empty promises.
The fact that the U.S-backed government of Afghanistan surrended to the Taliban without any resistance is the clearest proof that it wasn't nothing more than a supportive mechanism for the imperialist occupation. When the U.S. decided to withdraw their troops, Kabul's "government" collapsed like a house of cards.
The U.S. governments and their European allies bear the overwhelming responsibility for the tragedy that the people of Afghanistan are living. The criminal 2001 imperialist war unleashed by the Bush government and its NATO allies had nothing to do with the "fight against terrorism" or "bringing democracy". The only reason behind the intervention was the control of important geostrategic regions, energy resources and transportation roads, for the sake of the U.S. monopolies.
When the aim was accomplished and the focus of the U.S. foreign policy switched to other regions, the Biden administration decided last April to withdraw the U.S. military forces from Afghanistan. Within the context of the fierce competition between the US-EU bloc and other big powers, like Russia and China, the U.S had to transfer military personnel and equipment to other areas, including the Baltics, the Black Sea and the South China Sea.
When Bin Laden was an "Anti-Soviet warrior", 1993.
Afghanistan is again in the hands of the Taliban, in the hands of the fanatic jihadists who were trained, armed and financed by the U.S. governments and their allies during the 1980s, in order to turn them against the Soviet Union. The rise of Taliban in the country's leadership in 1990s, with the valuable aid of the U.S. and the CIA, came as a result of the collapse of the Democratic Republic of Afghanistan.
In their war against socialism-communism, the U.S. created and harbored the monster of jihadism which they renounced in 2001 as "terrorist threat", in order to strengthen their pretext for the imperialist intervention in Afghanistan.
Today, the apparent concern of the U.S. administration and European governments about the resurgence of Taliban and the future of Afghanistan can only been seen as crude hypocrisy. They are are responsible for the current situation in the country. The working men and women, the people of every country, must condemn the imperialist propaganda. The crime against the Afghani people must not be forgotten as it is a constant reminder of the barbarity and atrocity of imperialism.

What happens when the grit and determination of Sylvester Stallone's ROCKY and the furious rage of Robert De Niro's RAGING BULL date in the hinterland of India that is divided by caste and ruled by nationalistic and religious passion? – A BRAWLER (MUKKABAAZ) is born.
Anurag Kashyap's latest MUKKABAAZ is a shift from the greasy, disturbing yet terrific dark thrillers like RAMAN RAGHAV 2.0 that serves as a genre bender in Bollywood sports flicks, its unusual, political, laced with powerful dialogues and terrific acts that jabs the caste system, religious intolerance and corruption with hard hitting punches.
However, Anurag Kashyap's joust with the system and the populist studio owned sports flick in Bollywood like MARY KOM, M.S DHONI : THE UNTOLD STORY based on sporting legends somewhere in its tryst gets baffled and allured by Bollywoodish esthetics, a phenomenon the radical Anurag Kashyap is unknown for.
Resulting in MUKKABAAZ trying to win in points (read get a wider audience) and it does eventually by all the jabs and punches but that 'knockout' punch is missing the way Kashyap has landed earlier in his previous endeavors be it BLACK FRIDAY, DEV D, GANGS OF WASSEYPUR, RAMAN RAGHAV 2.0, UGLY.
Set in Bareilly a place before the sweet BAREILLY KI BARFI was known for its lost jhumka, begins when an aspiring Mike Tyson of U.P. Shravan Kumar Singh (Vineet Kumar Singh), punches his coach - the local stronghold and boxing federation boss, Bhagwan Das Mishra (Jimmy Shergill), after an argument.
Shravan's dream of becoming a district-level boxer gets beaten by the casteist, sexist, patriarchal and corrupt upper caste boxing promoter Bhagwan Das Mishra who takes the punch as an attack on his pride. To make matter worse, Shravan has fallen in love with Bhagwan Das Mishra's mute niece Sunaina (Zoya Hussain). Rest is how Shravan's fights with casteism, favourtism, corruption, and regional politics to get into the national level with the help of a coach belonging to lower caste Sanjay Kumar (Ravi Kishan).
Interestingly, MUKKABAAZ is a movie that relies on the perspective of the viewers. A scene that clearly defines the difference between 'how' we are watching and 'why' we are watching makes it a genre bender and the whole sequence comes with a well built establishment that cements Anurag Kashyap's liking to Martin Scorsese. After the initial banter with Coach Sanjay Kumar, Shravan is made aware of the difference between a brawler (MUKKABAAZ) and a boxer (MUKKEBAAZ) and here the filmmaker achieves triumph in this gender bender which is not just a sports film it's a love story, family drama and attack on the caste system rolled into one. Ironically, if I say the movie packs hard hitting punches more when the gloves are off, it won't be wrong.
Still, after all genre crossing by Anurag Kashyap in an engrossing script written by Prasoon Mishra and the director himself on a story by Singh Srinet Mukti, K.D. Satyam and the actor Vineet Kumar Singh which is said to be inspired by a real life incident, the overwhelming cautiousness to say that we are 'real' hampers the proceedings. Examples of Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone and Salman Khan are used just to reestablish the fact that things are 'real' over here, the soundtrack which is mocking and pounding if you listen separately comes suddenly without helping the purpose.
Another problem with MUKKEBAAZ is a sudden compulsive realization by the maker that things should be hipster and everybody should connect. So, subtitles get popped up and a solo dancing on the banks of Ganges unnecessarily appear.
Vineet Kumar Singh excels as Shravan Kumar Singh and delivers a powerful performance packed with punches of conviction and hooked with ease.
Zoya Hussain makes a riveting debut. Jimmy Shergill is top notch and Ravi Kishan is excellent. Dialogues are outstanding.
Technically sound with fantastic production values, the movie captures the essence of the hinterland right from the first blow.
All said and done, MUKKABAAZ is an unusual sports flick that qualifies to be a gender bender in spite its attempt to get hooked to the wider audience, thanks to the constant jabs and punches to the caste system, religious intolerance and corruption.

The majority of #MeToo stories we hear unfold over newsfeeds in a combination of headlines and hot takes in the comment section.
Of course, underneath those public scandals are far more private stories that remain behind closed doors. Even those that reach the mainstream begin there, in secret, intense and immediate and complicated.
The strength of C'mon Angie!, Amy Lee Lavoie's 90-minute two-hander about a complex sexual encounter, is not necessarily in the arguments it makes — anyone who's been paying attention to current debates about consent and call-out culture will be familiar with the points laid out in the conversation between Angela, an urbanite in her 30s (Anne van Leeuwen), and Reed, an older married acquaintance (Ryan Hollyman) — but in the dynamic that lays them out.
Vancouver-based playwright Lavoie has constructed a believable relationship that's theatrically rich in perspective, one that finds power in its normalcy, not in its extremity. It's one of the more viscerally familiar plays born out of the #MeToo movement that this critic has seen, and that's quite a few.
Montreal director Cristina Cugliandro helms the Toronto debut of C'mon Angie! in a production by Leroy Street Theatre and the Spadina Avenue Gang, and begins the story in an anxious place as the audience files in.
Van Leeuwen, on a messy bed, sits hunched over in a bra, with her back toward us, and a dark, dense humming in Tim Lindsay's sound design blocks out any noise from the rest of Angela's small condo. It's a startling shift when the sound drops out, the lights shift and a shower starts offstage while Angela dresses — but it's also one that feels real to anyone with a pressing issue on their mind.
Reed, a successful chiropractor with a wife and a daughter, knows guys who are sexist and abusive: he isn't. "If I was the kind of person who would do this," he repeats.
Lavoie's script falls victim to a common issue in plays like these that unfold in real time; to keep a revelation for a more dramatic moment later on, the conversation must beat around it.
Nancy Anne Perrin's set deconstructs Angela's condo like a crime scene, placing her outfit from the night in question against a white background and the play's props on small shelves live evidence exhibits. It's suggestive of how all the circumstances around a sexual assault are imagined to have such inflated importance — What was she wearing? Why did they have cereal the next morning? Did she have her glasses on? — but ultimately, it's the story that unfolds between Reed and Angela that drives the action forward.
This isn't the first or the last play that will approach #MeToo in this style, but C'mon Angie! is notable for its ability to capture the intensity and difficulty of such confrontations without sensationalizing or relying too much on "He said, she said" intrigue. It's informative for those who can't relate and empowering for those who do.

Baldacci, D.
People are dropping dead in Washington, D.C., and the Camel Club must unravel a secret that threatens to bring America to its knees. In "The Collectors," #1 "New York Times" bestselling author Baldacci once again demonstrates why he is one of the world's favorite writers.
David Baldacci was born in Richmond, Virginia on August 5, 1960. He received a Bachelor of Arts degree in political science from Virginia Commonwealth University and a Juris Doctor from the University of Virginia. He practiced law in Washington D.C. as a trial and corporate lawyer.
His first novel, Absolute Power, was published in 1996. It won Britain's prestigious W.H. Smith's Thumping Good Read award for fiction in 1997 and was adapted as a movie starring Clint Eastwood. His other works include Total Control, The Winner, The Simple Truth, Saving Faith, True Blue, One Summer and End Game. He writes numerous series including King and Maxwell, Freddy and the French Fries, the Camel Club, Will Robie, Shaw and Katie James, John Puller, Vega Jane, and Amos Decker. He also published a novella entitled Office Hours and has authored five original screenplays.
In bestseller Baldacci's entertaining if overly long sequel to The Camel Club (2005), renegade CIA agent Roger Seagraves has set himself up in the business of freelance assassination and selling our country's secrets to the highest bidder. The Camel Club, a group of four dysfunctional crime solvers headed by ex-CIA assassin Caleb Shaw, becomes involved with Seagraves through a killing at the Library of Congress, where one of the club members works. Meanwhile, an enigmatic young woman, Annabelle Conroy, is assembling a team to engineer a "long con," a $33 million scam targeting Jerry Bagger, the sleazy owner of an Atlantic City casino. This time around, Baldacci wisely tones down the wackiness of the club members, focusing instead on bringing Seagraves to justice while Annabelle works her ingenious scam. The splicing of the two plots is problematic, but Baldacci sacrifices a bit of believability to cobble together a new cast of characters destined to continue fighting the forces of evil in the next installment.

Helped by a beautiful grifter, the "Camel Club"--the four-man band of conspiracy theorists--returns to battle a threat to national security. Annabelle Conroy is con-artist extraordinaire; Jerry Bagger, mobster and mark; and Roger Seagraves, master assassin. All come straight from central casting. Seagraves is killing high-level government officials, and Conroy is putting together the con of the century, with Bagger as the target. The mysterious death of a rare-books expert at the Library of Congress launches the story, which splits off at first into two different plotlines. In one, Conroy and her team work their way up to their major score. In the other, the Camel Club investigates the mysterious death of a close friend. Things are slightly more exciting in Conroy's world. She's assembling her team, eager to settle an old score by taking down Atlantic City's most notorious and ruthless casino owner. After a series of capers out west to build their bankroll, the team heads back east. There's little drama Players act out their part; marks fall. The big score comes off without a hitch. The two plots intersect halfway through. Annabelle arrives in D.C., thanks to an awkward development, along with a new piece of unfinished business. Seagraves and the Camel Club are engaged in a cat-and-mouse game, and Annabelle Conroy is the special guest star. The merged stories reach a predictable conclusion. An obvious conflict remains unresolved for much of the way, setting up the next chapter in the saga. A tepid follow-up to The Camel Club (2005), with few surprises.

The four disillusioned, aging gentlemen featured in Baldacci's 2005 best-seller, The Camel Club0 , are back in this engaging offering. The ringleader of the eccentric Washington, D.C., group (comprising obsessive-compulsive computer-whiz Milton Farb, decorated Vietnam vet Rueben Rhodes, and slightly rumpled library-scholar Caleb Shaw) is an ex-CIA conspiracy theorist who goes by the pseudonym Oliver Stone. All are reunited when Shaw's boss, the Library of Congress' director of Rare Books and Special Collections, is found dead. (Might he have been killed for possession of a rare collection of Puritan psalms?) Meanwhile, a few hundred miles away, sexy scam artist Annabelle Conroy avenges her mother's death with a fiendishly clever con pulled on a nefarious Atlantic City casino magnate. Though his two plots converge in a rather contrived way, Baldacci delivers crisp, economical prose and a cast of spies, misfits, and assassins that would make even the most patriotic citizen question the American political system. The best of the characters include gorgeous, gutsy newcomer Annabelle and the wonderfully idiosyncratic Stone, who spends many a day camped out on the lawn across from the White House with a sign that says, "I want the truth." --Allison Block Copyright 2006 Booklist

"Money always flows away from those who don't manage it toward those who do"
Since my last blog post, I have had a few people ask me for a follow up post about BUDGETING. Some were really interested in how we paid down our debt, and others just interested in getting their finances in order for the new year.
So obviously I have some folks who are: tired of overspending, want to save money for certain purchases, get paid and have no clue where all their money goes; that follow me. Do any of these things sound familiar to you? Fret not, I wrote this post with you in mind.
Most people don't like talking finances because it's such a taboo topic. Myself included.
For instance Noah and I never discuss dollar figures & finances with anyone outside of our circle, (God, each other & our financial advisor.) Just because we feel as though its nobody else's business. I mean really it's not. But mainly because we have a healthy view and relationship with money that some people don't share. We view money as an object to make exchanges. We don't let money control us, we control our money. We don't think more money will take away our problems, we make it work with what we have. We spend within OUR means, and we allocate every dollar to what WE deem is important to US.
Some people really don't have boundaries when it comes to money. People also tend to think if you make x amount of dollars you have imaginary money that they like to spend for you. So to keep from having to run down the long list of expenses and places our money goes, we just choose not to talk about it with anyone outside of us.
We do however believe in discussing money with our kids, well mainly Kubb, Ian has no clue what money is right now. This is because a lot of the money habits people have are inadvertently handed down to them. So we want our children to understand money for what it is and have a healthy relationship with money themselves as they grow older and make their own financial decisions.
I also think it's ok to talk about eliminating debt. Sometimes people just need to know that they can do it too. Wealth building and financial independence should not be a secret. (Especially when you're talking about what most millenials can relate to: STUDENT LOANS -- the added layer of Medical School & Law School type of student loans (6 FIGURES) yea, we all need some advice in that area - I will dedicate a post to this in the future) In the meantime if you're looking for more (Medical School Debt advice) the best place to start is- THE WHITE COAT INVESTOR.
Ok, now back to the reason you're here. You want to discover the magic of mastering your finances in 2018, SO YOU CAN ANSWER NO TO THOSE QUESTIONS TOO. Guess what?! It starts with one word, BUDGET. Budgeting is the first step to financial literacy and freedom.
Budgeting allows you to create a plan for your money and ensures you have enough for everything you need. Budgeting most importantly allows you to control your money instead of your money controlling you.
Seeing where your money goes every month can be very eye opening.
Realizing you over spent on groceries, gas, & eating out is not cool. Especially when that extra money could have gone to eliminating debt or building wealth.
DISCLAIMER: I am not a money expert. I can only share what works for us & hope that it helps you! Talk to a financial advisor or CPA for individual advice and direction.
Set your budget -- Allocate your money. THIS IS WHERE YOU CREATE A BUDGET.
Fixed expenses first: Tithes, Mortgage/Rent, Utilities, Car Payment, Insurance (health, car, life) , DEBT, Subscriptions, Phone Bill.
Then variable expenses (things that change month-month): Household products, Gas, Groceries, Leisure, Personal, Misc.
Adjust if necessary : if you realize that you only spend x on misc stuff instead of yz then allocate that money somewhere else.
Also, review your budget month- if not every couple of weeks! I do a mid month and month end budget check to see where we are.
Savings - My mantra is pay God 1st, then yourself. Don't wait to see what you have left over to save, instead use what you have after you SAVE.
Here are some suggested savings categories. Think of what is non-negotiable (things you will put money to no matter what) and start funding those things first.
EMERGENCY FUND - Life happens. You can lose your job, have a huge medical expenses and so forth- Some people suggest having 3-6 months of income in an emergency fund. [DO WHAT WORKS FOR YOU] but don't neglect creating an emergency fund. Even if it is $500-$1000.
DEBT PAYOFF - (NON-NEGOTIABLE) Paying off your debt allows you to save more money. The money you would have paid in interest can go to something else, if you make extra debt payments with any extra money you have monthly (even an extra $50 a month) can save you a ton on interest.
It takes practice, and discipline, but you will be so happy you did this once you begin to see results.
The MAJOR Financial Move I'm making to ensure I reach my financial goals in 2018: A NO SPEND YEAR. I will go into detail about this in a later post, but yea- it means what it says! 😅 One caveat: I did purchase myself a very nice "gift" (mainly with christmas money) to sate my desires for the duration of this challenge. I also purchased a back orderderd & pre-ordered item back in 2017 before I decided I was going to do a no spend year. They will both come as a great "surprise" & I can still receive gifts ;) - Although, gifting will require discipline because shopping for others usually leads to finding things for myself, lol. But for the most part I am not spending money on any"THING" other than necessities in 2018!!
Here are a few suggested Budget Planners, & books to get you started Budgeting the RIGHT WAY.
Being on a budget doesn't mean You're CHEAP or BROKE, it means You're smart.

The Grant House
A Grant trio of technologies keep new build home in Perranporth up to temperature
Credit: Tom Smith Plumbing & Heating Services
The four bedroom new build home in Perranporth where a Grant heat pump, cylinder and underfloor heating system were installed
Tom Smith Plumbing and Heating Services, G1 Installers who specialise in renewable, eco-friendly technologies, completed the installation of a hattrick of Grant products in a new build property in Perranporth, Cornwall. An Aerona³ heat pump, Wave cylinder and Uflex underfloor heating system are working together to fulfil the heating requirements of this new family home.
Earlier this year, the build of a new detached home located in the heart of Perranporth in Cornwall was completed. The property, which has four bedrooms, a master bathroom, ensuite and a ground floor shower room, was designed to deliver comfort for its owners which also included the installation of a renewable heating system. An air source heat pump was selected as the heat source alongside a new hot water cylinder and an underfloor heating system which have been installed to meet the space heating and hot water demand of this sustainably built home.
"The clients gave us a design brief and we came up with a system to suit the needs of their property," writes Tom Smith, the installing engineer. "Being an eco-friendly build, this property needed a sustainable heating system that would help the client achieve a low carbon footprint. The Monowave cylinder and 10kW Aerona³ heat pump were a perfect match and couple that with the Uflex underfloor heating meant it was an all-star Grant team of technologies we put forward and then installed into the property."
The 10kW heat pump is one of four models within the Grant Aerona³ R32 air source heat pump range. Monobloc in design, the Aerona³ heat pumps are inverter driven units and are highly efficient, achieving an ErP rating of A+++. The 10kW model's excellent performance is marked by its high SCOP value of 5.22, demonstrating its efficient operation even when external temperatures are low.
Developers and self-builders are increasingly turning to Grant air source heat pumps when choosing a suitable heating system which is not reliant on fossil fuels. New properties are built with excellent levels of insulation and installing heat emitters with large surface areas is easy to scope into the early phases of a build, two factors which contribute to the efficient and smooth running of a low temperature system, such as an air source heat pump. This property in Perranporth exemplifies this and shows why heat pumps and underfloor heating are an ideal match for new builds.
"Grant Uflex underfloor heating has been installed throughout the ground floor and first floor of this property," continues Tom. "By installing this underfloor heating system, both floors become the surface area through which heat can be evenly distributed into the living spaces of the home. This large surface area enables the client's desired room temperatures to be met by the heat pump system while also helping the heat pump itself to work in its most efficient operation."
Tom Smith Plumbing and Heating Services, G1 Installers based in Redruth, regularly install Grant's renewable technologies. "As a business, we are striving to deliver heating systems which are sustainable and in line with the eco-friendly ethos that many of our clients hold," comments Tom. "I enjoy working with Grant's products because they are trusted appliances, installer-friendly, and the technical back-up and after-sales support is great. This installation was one of three eco-houses we have completed in Perranporth in the past six months and a mixture of Grant renewable heating systems have been fitted in all the properties, proving how greener, more sustainable heating solutions have helped our clients realise their goals of an environmentally friendly home."

Guidance around Preshapes themeing requirements and capabilities with CSS Custom properties and accompanying Components.
Themeing is achieved by using CSS Custom Properties (CSS Variables), and are applied by adding the relevant HTML class to an element. All descendants elements will also start using that theme.
The Base component provides a theme prop that will apply the classes mentioned above. As mentioend in the composition guide, Base is the end of the chain for all other components so the theme prop is available on any other component too.
Applications need a global theme, which is applied by adding a theme class to the html element.
React Context Provider and Consumer components are available to get the current theme or change it.
If using the Application component, there is no need to use the ThemeContext.Provider component, see below.
The Application component provides handling for updating and setting the theme, at global leve.

Monsanto trial: judge rejects bid to overturn landmark cancer verdict
Key Excerpts from Article on Website of The Guardian (One of the UK's leading newspapers)
The Guardian (One of the UK's leading newspapers), October 22, 2018
https://www.theguardian.com/business/2018/oct/22/monsanto-ca...
A California judge has rejected Monsanto's appeal to overturn a landmark jury verdict which found that its popular herbicide causes cancer. Dewayne "Lee" Johnson, a father of three and former school groundskeeper ... won a $289m award over the summer after alleging that his exposure to Roundup weedkiller gave him cancer. Monsanto, now owned by Bayer, the German pharmaceutical company, filed an appeal of the verdict, which said the company was responsible for "negligent failure", knew or should have known that its product was "dangerous", and had "acted with malice or oppression". San Francisco superior court judge Suzanne Bolanos ... has ruled to reduce punitive damages from $250m to $39m. The August verdict was a major victory for campaigners who have long fought Roundup, the most widely used herbicide in the world. Studies have repeatedly linked the glyphosate chemical ... to non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), a type of blood cancer. Internal Monsanto emails uncovered in the litigation suggested that the corporation has repeatedly worked to stifle critical research over the years while "ghost-writing" scientific reports favorable to glyphosate. Thousands of plaintiffs across the country have made similar legal claims, alleging that glyphosate exposure caused their cancer or resulted in the deaths of their loved ones. Last week, four jury members spoke to the Guardian about the judge questioning their unanimous decision, urging her to allow the verdict to stand.
Note: The EPA continues to use industry-sponsored studies to declare Roundup safe while ignoring independent scientists. A recent independent study published in a scientific journal also found a link between glyphosate and gluten intolerance. Internal FDA emails suggest that the food supply contains far more glyphosate than government reports indicate. For more along these lines, see concise summaries of deeply revealing news articles on corporate corruption and health.


This website provides a general outline of the huge opportunities that lie within the Air Cadet program and the 604 Squadron. We strongly encourage you to come to Mewata Armouries and see the program for yourself, or if you have any questions, please contact us. Tours can be arranged for those wishing to more fully experience the nature of the Air Cadet program.
604 "Moose" Royal Canadian Air Cadet Squadron, also known as 604 Moose Squadron, is proud to provide cadets with dynamic leadership and a learning conducive environment. 604 Moose is one if not the oldest and largest in Air Cadet Squadrons in Calgary and has a proud history of success that has produced many of today's leaders in the Calgary community and beyond. We currently have 140 cadets on strength with 10 Officers and Civilian staff.
Through training such as flying, survival and leadership instruction, cadets are prepared to take on the challenges of life. The lessons each cadet learns during their stay at 604 are valuable life skills. Cadets also receive experience working as a team in order to accomplish objectives. For example, on Squadron level exercises, cadets are actively engaged in the operation and maintenance of a survival oriented camp environment. Each cadet will also receive the opportunity to develop personal experience and will have a fun time doing it.
Cadets is not all hard work, though. Social events such as team building events, annual Christmas parties, mess dinners and Tri-Service dances provide ample opportunity for cadets to have an active social life, not only within their own Squadron, but also with members of the other two Cadet Elements. Summer training creates friendships that will be cherished for the rest of each cadet's life. As well, during the training year, cadets travel and get the cadet experience by attending events such as Honour Band and Drill Competitions.
604 Moose has a prominent role in the community. The Squadron was proud to celebrate its 60th year in 2015 by earning Top Squadron in the entire Northwest Region (covering all three prairie provinces and all three northern territories).
Many cadets have developed into excellent leaders in the community. We have thrived under many great leaders and our present Commanding Officer is Major Tracey Bauhuis. We have successful teams such as our Sports, Precision Drill and Biathlon teams. Maintaining traditions of excellence, 604 Moose has always prided itself with its cadets. Having sent more than a third of our cadets to summer training centre's last year, our cadets are trained and ready for any adventure.

Important Features of an On-Demand Food Ordering App
Peter Johnson, IT/IS Manager, Anheuser-Busch
In such a rapidly growing market an on-demand food ordering app for customers to have a set of features that will help the brand to stand out and provide unparalleled functionality.
Food-ordering applications were once considered a novelty in the pre-COVID era, but now they have become necessary. Having food delivered to the doorstep has become a convenient, stress-free, and, most importantly, safe way to eat one's favorite dishes. Data shows that consumers are increasingly opting for takeout and online ordering over dining out in the post-pandemic era.
Restaurant aggregators and food delivery services are well-known for charging a high per-order fee, which reduces the restaurant's profitability. Based on the platform and the order, these fees can range from 15 percent to 40 percent. As a result, several independent and chain restaurants have launched their food ordering and delivery services.
It has resulted in an increasingly competitive digital marketplace for on-demand food ordering apps. This fact generates various questions about the functionality that such an app should provide to meet, if not exceed, consumer expectations.
Essential Features of On-demand food ordering app For Customers
Customers expect certain features from on-demand food ordering apps. But it's how they communicate with the user on the screen that makes them so appealing.
Setting up a new account is the initial step in starting a brand's connection with a consumer. This is critical in ensuring a new customer's loyalty. Setting a new account typically entails creating a login ID and password or using a social media profile or Google ID.
The user's profile is a database of information. Past orders, preferences based on order analytics, shipping addresses, saved outlets, payment options, and more can be included. The customer's favorite feature of the profile is the easy access to this information.
Users have the flexibility to search out the restaurants they want by downloading a restaurant aggregator or ordering app. Users will search for items based on delivery times, distance, or even menu preferences based on location. More is required for an app for a single restaurant or chain.
Another feature that many food delivery applications have is the ability to track one's order. It needs the addition of a customized or paid tool to the app. It enables customers to track their orders from when they are placed until they are delivered to their homes.
Allowing the consumers to pay in various ways is one of the most significant aspects of the process. Allowing customers options, whether by card, cash on delivery, or through PayPal and similar apps, is critical.
