An image of how the new development could look
Contentious plans have been unveiled to tear down a popular Newquay hotel and build 65 apartments and a shop on the site.
After 34 years of ownership, Will Hatfield and his 83-year-old mother Margaret have made the decision to sell the Carnmarth Hotel on Headland Road to London-based developer SJA Estates, subject to planning permission.
The Hatfield family says it has decided to sell the site, which was converted into a hotel in the 1930s, because it needs substantial reinvestment.
Mr Hatfield says the hotel will remain open until at least October 2018.
The developer is proposing to tear down the hotel and replace it with a new apartment block, which would include one and two-bedroom maisonettes and one, two and three-bed flats.

There will be a ground floor commercial area comprising of a shop and café, with two storeys of underground car park providing one parking space for each home.

But if Cornwall Council planners turn down the application the Hatfields will continue to run the hotel business.
So far 18 people have officially objected to the developer's plans on Cornwall Council's planning website.
Residents say they are concerned about the size of the development, a loss of privacy, noise, a lack of parking and increased traffic in Headland Road.
However the developer states that residents were "overwhelmingly supportive" of the scheme following a public consultation event which was held in July, with only one individual raising concerns.
A spokesperson on behalf of SJA Estates said: "The existing hotel requires significant investment to continue to operate in its current form, which will not be realised.
"The hotel's senior partner, who has been involved in the family business for nearly 40 years, is now 83 and no longer capable of supporting a re-financing package. It would, quite naturally, be her wish to attain the asset value of the site as part of a pension fund.

"Due to the changes in the holiday market, a potential buy-out by the junior partners is not viable. There has been a vast decline in the coach travel market and this has resulted in the hotel competing in markets with those hotels that are providing much higher quality facilities, such as swimming pools and spas.
"The hotel has also been affected by recent changes to legislation in respect of minimum wage levels.
"Due to the redevelopment of many other sites on Headland Road, the characteristics have altered to those of a high amenity residential street.

"As a result the hotel has been subject to complaints from residents of noise and other disturbance, including arising from the significant traffic for functions that could impact the viability of the hotel to continue as a late-night licenced premises.
"The design process has been comprehensive and has evolved through the pre-application process involving the local authority and community."
A decision on the application is due to be made by Cornwall Council's planning committee by the end of December.
Planning officials are also yet to make a decision on plans to transform three other former Newquay hotels into apartments.
The new owner of the former Trebarwith Hotel has applied for planning permission to demolish the building and construct nine townhouses, nine apartments, a detached bungalow and a car park.
Another developer is proposing to demolish the Edgcumbe Hotel on Narrowcliff, which has been closed since 2015, and replace it with a five-storey apartment block, comprising 61 one, two and three-bedroom apartments.
Further down the road, developer Cornovia Homes is hoping to construct ten two-bedroom apartments on the site of the former La Hotel Felicia on Henver Road, which has already been demolished.

Cingulate raises $7.5m for controlled-release ADHD therapy
July 11, 2018 By Sarah Faulkner
Cingulate Therapeutics said today that it landed a $7.5 million investment to help fund the development of its controlled-release ADHD drugs.
The Kansas City-based company is working on a set of therapies that utilize its 'Precision Time Release' drug-delivery platform. Cingulate's CEO, Shane Schaffer, told Drug Delivery Business News that his company set out to create an ADHD therapy that tackles all of the challenges posed by existing therapies.
"One of the key aspects is that you're trying to serve two masters a lot of the time in ADHD – you want to have a very fast onset of action, but at the same time, you want to have a very extended duration of action," he said.
The company's lead product candidates, CTx-1301 and CTx-1302, are designed to begin working in less than 30 minutes after administration, persist for 14-16 hours and give a controlled descent of plasma drug levels, according to Schaffer.
"We're looking at getting these drugs on the market in less than 36 months; hopefully, even sooner," he said.
Schaffer
Cingulate's Precision Time Release drug-delivery technology makes use of a "Russian doll"-like effect, Schaffer explained – in a single tablet, Cingulate can combine layers of immediate- and sustained-release pharmaceuticals to better control the product's overall pharmacokinetic profile.
In January, the company touted data from its first proof-of-concept study of CTX-1301. The trial included three treatment arms – one group was given Novartis' (NYSE:NVS) Focalin XR, another group was given CTX-1301 with a radiolabeled second layer and a third group was given CTX-1301 with a radiolabeled third layer. The radiolabeled tablets were monitored as they traveled through a person's GI tract to track delivery.
Cingulate reported that it observed consistent, tri-modal release of its dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride product and that CTX-1301 extended blood plasma drug levels by four hours compared to Focalin XR.
Looking ahead, Schaffer expects to move quickly through the clinical development process.
"Our goal is to create ideal ADHD medications and at the same time, benefit the health care system," he said. "We feel that we can provide much more cost-effective agents, which will benefit patients and payers, as well as physicians, giving them a single daily option for treatment and [Precision Time Release] does that."

"An exciting spy novel with a Gothic twist that showcases character growth, intrigue, history and a second chance at love is what many readers enjoy and what Lee delivers."
"In this nicely written love story, Lee brings together a music-loving heroine and an ex Naval surgeon-turned author, both of whom are beset by their private demons. She infuses her novel with a fine overview of the power of music along with the trials and tribulations of the written word, intelligent characters, sensuality and compassion."
"Lee continues to captivate. Book two in her Business of Marriage series is another great marriage of convenience. There's tension, turmoil and drama on every page. Riveting."

Award winning author Georgie Lee was born and raised in San Diego where she also attended college, majoring in television and film production. She began her professional writing career at a local cable TV station writing marketing videos, promotional spots and public service announcements, some of which still haunt the airwaves.
Blinded by the dazzling lights of Hollywood, she headed north to Los Angeles where she earned her MA in Screenwriting, met her husband, and settled into a career in the interesting but strange world of the entertainment industry.
A lifelong history buff, Georgie hasn't given up hope that she will one day inherit a title and a manor house. Until then, she fulfills her dreams of lords, ladies and a season in London through her stories.

This article is about the Dutch airline. For the Belgian sister company, see TUI fly Belgium. For the German sister company, see TUI fly Deutschland. For the Scandinavian sister company, see TUI fly Nordic. For the British sister company, see TUI Airways.
TUI fly Netherlands, legally incorporated as TUI Airlines Netherlands (formerly branded as Arkefly and Arke), is a Dutch charter airline headquartered in Schiphol-Rijk on the grounds of Amsterdam Airport Schiphol in Haarlemmermeer, Netherlands. It is the charter carrier of the Dutch arm of the German travel conglomerate TUI Group and its main base is Schiphol Airport.
TUI fly Netherlands traces its roots to Air Holland, which was founded in 1981. After financial problems Air Holland was taken over by the Exel Aviation Group and took a new start as HollandExel in March 2004. In May 2005 the Exel Aviation Group was declared bankrupt. The German TUI Group took over the airline's activities and renamed it ArkeFly. It is now wholly owned by the TUI Group. Its name was based on the biggest Dutch tour operator, Arke, which is also a subsidiary of the TUI Group. The newly reorganised airline operated its first flight in September 2005.
Operations in Curaçao, Netherlands Antilles, began on 15 July 2004 as DutchCaribbeanExel, which was originally part of the Exel Aviation Group, but was later taken over, together with parent airline, HollandExel, by the TUI Group, and renamed ArkeFly Curaçao. ArkeFly started weekly flights to St. Maarten from Amsterdam on 2 December 2007, but discontinued this service in November 2008. TUI holds that flights may resume if the volume of tourists travelling to St. Maarten increases. Operations to Orlando, Miami and Israel began in 2011.
In October 2013, Arkefly changed its marketing name to Arke to reflect the partnership with the travel agency of the same name.
On 13 May 2015, it was announced by the TUI Group that all five of TUI's airline subsidiaries will be named TUI, whilst keeping their separate Air Operator's Certificate, taking over three years to complete. Arke was the first to undergo the change, and was renamed TUI on 1 October 2015 - therefore changing the airline's name also. Since 2017, the airline uses the brand TUI fly together with its sister companies TUI fly Deutschland, Belgium and Nordic.
TUI fly Netherlands carries out regular and chartered flights, although most of the chartered flights are operated for the Dutch tour operator TUI Netherlands. It operates to destinations in the Mediterranean, Finland, Canary Islands, Red Sea, Mexico, Caribbean, United States, Africa, Middle East and the Dutch Caribbean.

Boeing 767-300ER 1 — 31 264 295 To be retired in 2020.
TUI Group has 70 737 MAXs on order for the group, the order consists of a mix of the 737 MAX 8 and MAX 10 and some of these will be used for the airline to modernize the fleet and replace older aircraft. The number of aircraft allocated to TUI fly Netherlands is yet unknown with deliveries of the new aircraft commencing in January 2018.

Screening for lynch syndrome by immunohistochemistry of mismatch repair proteins: Significance of indeterminate result and correlation with mutational studies
Venetia R. Sarode, Linda Robinson
Context. - Immunohistochemical expression of mismatch repair (MMR) protein is a well-accepted method for routine screening for Lynch syndrome with relatively high sensitivity and specificity. Occasionally, however, immunohistochemistry (IHC) can yield an equivocal result with poor reproducibility and the potential for misdiagnosis. Objective. - To determine the frequency and significance of indeterminate MMR IHC expression in patients routinely screened for Lynch syndrome and correlation with germline mutation studies. Design. - Semiquantitative scoring of MMR IHC was performed by image analysis in 479 cases, of which 380 were colorectal and 99 endometrial cancer. Scores of 10% or more, less than 10%, and 0% were used as cutoffs for retained, indeterminate, and loss of expression, respectively. Negative and indeterminate IHC results were confirmed by mutational studies. Results. - Four hundred eighteen of 479 cases (87.2%) were reported as retained expression, 45 (9.3%) as loss of expression, and 16 (3.3%) as indeterminate expression. Fifteen of 45 (33.3%) and 8 of 16 (50%) with loss and indeterminate expression, respectively, were found to have Lynch syndrome by germline studies. The overall frequency of Lynch syndrome in our patient population was 4.8% (23 of 479), and 34.7% of these (8 of 23) were associated with indeterminate IHC expression. In the indeterminate group, MLH1 germline mutation was the most frequent (6 of 13; 46.2%), followed by MSH6 (4 of 13; 30.7%). Conclusions. - Our findings provide further evidence that indeterminate IHC should be further investigated for possible MMR germline mutation. Guidelines for interpretation of MMR IHC and the establishment of more objective criteria for defining indeterminate results are important to improve the sensitivity and specificity of the IHC assay.

Lewis Carroll's and Henry Holiday's The Hunting of the Snark made me digging into British history and the history the Anglican church (especially the Oxford Movement).
It's not history, at least not a finished one.
To me, Carroll's tragicomedy (a tragedy in Henry Holiday's view) is about the doctrinal conflicts (some of them lethal) arising along the travel to truth, whatever that might be. These conflicts within and between belief systems surely didn't end today. Also the concrete disputes which might have inspired the Rev. Dodgson (aka Lewis Carroll) in the 19th century seem to be going on even today. All that is quite strange to me (not only because I am a German). I can't take sides, because I don't even understand how and why the disputed issues can be issues at all.
The Church of England has sent a clear message to its conservative churchgoers – you're not wanted.
The treatment of Bishop Philip North, an Anglo-Catholic, shows the Church's prospects for unity are grim.
It is with a heavy heart that I must announce that the Church of England is at it again. Fresh off a truly disastrous session of General Synod (the Church's parliament), it has plunged itself headlong into further public ignominy.
Not only the ongoing struggles in the Anglican Church still are turning Snarks into Boojums. The multicultural beasts are very alife today, perhaps more than ever.
Beyond Oxford and beyond the church, Carroll's tragicomedy also applies to the conflicts (some of them lethal) arising along the travel to truth in worldly matters. In the last years more and more Boojums got in the way of the travellers. Most of them are notorious liars. How evil they are you'll understand if you see what kind of leadership they admire.
Need I rehearse the history of Jowett?
I need not, Senior Censor, for you know it.
That was the Board Hebdomadal, and oh!
Who would be free, themselves must strike the blow!

Abby Reads: Man Made Boy by Jon Skovron
March 9, 2015 / abbyrhargreaves / 1 Comment
Man Made Boy by Jon Skovron
Viking Books for Young Readers, 2013, 384 pages
YA Science Fiction
Boy lives and works in a New York City theater with his parents, Frankenstein's Monster and his Bride and a cast of creatures and creations alike. Hungry for a more human experience, Boy heads out on his own, gets an apartment, a job, and is soon joined by his crush. But after unleashing a computer virus he's been obsessing over for ages, everything starts to fall apart at the seams.
Man Made Boy features a set of well-developed and, for the most part, interesting characters. Skovron uses modern and not-so-modern myths to help populate his Sci-Fi/Fantasy novel, largely by drawing from and retelling pieces of some classics, Frankenstein and The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. The complexity of the characters led me to believe that various problematic behaviors different characters exhibited (particularly Boy, who was often misogynistic among other things) would eventually be eradicated (or at least dulled) from the characters as they learned and grew. This was not the case. I was disappointed to see, instead, Boy speaking as a sort of mouth piece for the men in the world who subscribe to "meninism" and who believe in the "friendzone." Several times one character or another (again, mainly Boy, as the narrator of Man Made Boy) said something which so reflected such an anti-women philosophy that I almost put the book down or, at the very least, rolled my eyes. I felt that it was important to continue, however, with the hope that these characters would change (as characters do) and the general belief that a political or social disagreement does not warrant my censorship in my own reading. Besides, what if there was some other really great thing about the novel I would miss out on if I gave up?
That all said, I'm not convinced the rest of the book was worth it for me. I became frustrated with the pacing and the proportions of action (getting a bit into theory here, referring to rising/falling action and the like) felt awkward. I never felt like I was reading just one solid plot line, but rather a mix of small plot lines with one vague one that sort of stood out sometimes. I should point out that this is also how I've felt about Frankenstein the few times I've read it. So make of that what you will. As a Sci-Fi plot, Skovron did well with the details overall, and I enjoyed the off-the-wall theater setting for the earlier bits. I did find I asked myself frequently, "Where did Boy get his consciousness, his self?" because Boy was, like his father, assembled from pieces of other (dead) individuals. Assuming the same was done for his brain, (and remember we're working in a universe where this is possible) he'd start off with the consciousness (and personality, language, memories, etc.) of someone else. So is this really "Boy" at all? Skovron dodges this issue entirely, though deals with other oddities and enigmas in better detail.
There was nothing in Skovron's writing style that stood out to me, other than a few awkward phrase here or there and my general disbelief that a teenage "boy" would say many of the things Boy did. Skovron divided the book into parts, heading each with a philosophical and foreboding quote from one source or another. I didn't feel these quotes added anything special, though they did help guide the theme for readers who may struggle with identifying themes (hint: if you need a book for a book report/paper, this might be a good option). In the "grand finale" of the book, I was generally confused about what was going on. Here, the writing seemed to go from "okay, but nothing special" to "ehhh, not so great."
I was unimpressed with this one and reading it with a feminist lens really sealed the didn't-like-it feeling for me.

The potential benefits for these ACOs are huge. In essence, they are able to share in the cost savings from better-coordinated care and decreased overall costs. So, how can ACOs (and organizations planning to become ACOs) save on care costs?
These organizations need to find the sources of inefficiency and poor care coordination and fix them. But where to start? Start by looking at simple strategies. Make sure that each person gets the care they need at the right place and the right time.
Every patient encounter starts with a phone call. The first step is to make sure the people answering the phones triage patients efficiently and effectively. In order for ACOs to show cost savings, it is crucial that they invest in an effective nurse triage service or program. There are many clearly documented benefits of nurse triage including better patient access, coordinated care, and cost savings.
Nurse triage allows for more efficient use of healthcare resources. In addition, it gives patients better access to providers even if they are not seeking emergency care, which can improve patient satisfaction, prevent future complications, and allow providers to educate patients.
So, how do you set up a nurse triage system? First, consider two types of calls: day calls and night calls. Day calls are simple because offices are open, and the nurse can ask the patient to come in, if needed. As a result, daytime protocols are shorter and simpler to document. Night calls are more extensive because doctors' offices are closed. These calls demand more extensive protocols and documentation. They also require nurses to be able to contact the doctor on call, if necessary.
Second, the evolution of new technology has made several cost-effective options available. They are: do it yourself in-house (and hire your own nurses), outsource to a nurse triage center, or use a combination of in-house and outsourcing.
Do it yourself in-house: start your own call center: Starting your own call center involves setting up the call center infrastructure. The requirements depend on the scale and number of calls received. For daytime calls, many physician practices choose to have their own staff nurses take calls using daytime triage protocols. These protocols are available in book form or electronic format.
For night calls, the requirements include hiring an experienced call center manager, purchasing triage software for nighttime protocols, and hiring clinical and non-clinical staff to answer the phones and handle patient phone calls. Having your own system also gives your staff the flexibility to perform multiple tasks in addition to triage, such as physician referrals, scheduling, disease management, class registration, and surveys.
However, before proceeding, count the cost. Setting up a call center requires a high initial investment. It is labor intensive for the nursing department and requires human resources and IT involvement. In addition, setting up multiple functions is a long-term project with a slow return on investment. Moreover, there are significant differences in terms of hardware requirements and capabilities with various software programs, so it is important to do your research and speak with a variety of vendors.
The organizations most likely to succeed with this approach are larger organizations with high call volumes, which expect to handle over 50,000 triage calls a year. These companies are the right fit because they already have some call center infrastructure and they just need to add to it. The high call volume also allows the center to use nurses' time efficiently.
Outsource to a nurse triage center: In this option, the organization outsources the nurse triage function to an outside vendor. The vendor provides access to a call center infrastructure that patients can call and talk with a nurse when they have clinical questions and concerns.
The advantage of this option is that it has a relatively low upfront start-up cost. The organization does not have to train its own nursing staff, and there is no need for human resources and IT staff. Since the outside vendor is already taking calls, startup is quick, and there is an immediate return on investment. In addition, vendors may have more experience and expertise in the niche area of triage, resulting in better care for patients.
The disadvantages are also clear. First, you have less direct control over the nurses. Second, some nurse triage vendors cannot integrate with electronic medical records. For the best outcome, you need to be careful about interviewing and make sure you are comfortable with your vendor. In addition, costs may vary significantly depending on the vendor and the quality of the service you receive. Still, assuming you have done your homework in interviewing and discussing costs, outsourcing can be a good option for small to medium-sized practices.
Use a combination of in-house and outsourced services: This is a model in which an organization uses its own nurse triage software and nurses during high call volumes and outsources the triage to a service during low call volumes. A combined model has the potential to improve services and decrease costs. Most triage centers lose money when the call volume is low because nurses are idle while waiting for phone calls. By outsourcing during those low volume times, the call center can continue to provide service at a reduced cost. This combination can be accomplished seamlessly with the call center technology, integration engines, and communication platforms available today.
The advantage of this model is that it allows the organization to continue to provide the same level or increased levels of service. At the same time, this allows the organization to decrease its operating costs and work within a given budget while maintaining their current infrastructure and resources. These organizations may also be able to expand into other areas of call center work to increase revenues.
At the same time, this model requires finding the right partner with the technology and service-level knowledge to implement a combined model. It is important the partner is able to work seamlessly with the technology and the notes to the physicians so that there is no interruption in patient care. Physicians also have their own practice-specific needs, and those requests need to be followed by both parties consistently. Therefore, it is crucial to select your partner carefully. Make sure you interview and discuss your software and services with your partner before making a commitment.
This model is best for organizations with existing nurse triage infrastructure and are being faced with budget cuts.
Conclusion: Soaring healthcare costs and increasing incentives from government organizations are making it crucial to look for ways to improve the allocation of patient care. Nurse triage is a solution that can dramatically reduce medical calls by making sure patients are getting the care they need at the right time. Not only does it reduce costs, it also improves patient satisfaction because it gives patients access to a supportive and knowledgeable person who can help them.

This month's Cool & New roundup includes THE MERCILESS II: The Exorcism of Sofia Flores by Danielle Vega, the intense sequel to the THE MERCILESS, in which Sofia strives to resist temptation at a Catholic boarding school; THE SHADOW HOUR by Melissa Grey, the sequel to THE GIRL AT MIDNIGHT, where Echo struggles to harness her true power without burning the world to ashes; and THE SIEGE by Mark Alpert, the second book in the The Six series, in which Adam finds himself searching for a traitor among his team while defending humanity from the ruthless Sigma.
Victoria Schwab, author of This Savage Song
There's no such thing as safe in a city at war, a city overrun with monsters. In this dark urban fantasy from acclaimed author Victoria Schwab, a young woman and a young man must choose whether to become heroes or villains --- and friends or enemies --- with the future of their home at stake. The first of two books, THIS SAVAGE SONG is a must-have for fans of Holly Black, Maggie Stiefvater and Laini Taylor.


As I seem to mention every year, crafting a strict Top 100 Songs of The Year list is an impossibility for me, because I listen to and like way more than 100 songs. So in order to shine a light on some of the songs that are still very good but don't crack my top 100, I've issued lists recognizing the "honourable mentions" the past couple years. This is the first of those lists for 2014. More than anything though, these lists serve as a record keeping endeavour, so when I look back at 2014 some years down the line, I'll be able to re-visit all the songs I was into. Having something neat and tidy to refer to at any time appeals to me, and that's a big reason why I compile these lists. If anyone else who reads them discovers/likes something new, that's great too.
Without further ado, here is the first of four lists detailing the best songs of 2014, Honourable Mention style, in alphabetical order.

Monongalia Arts Center on Facebook
Originally a post office, this 1913 Neoclassical structure was donated by the Louis F. Tanner family in 1976 to be developed and maintained as a cultural center for Monongalia County. In 1976, Monongalia County Arts Center Association, Inc. was chartered and, after two years of planning and development, Monongalia Arts Center (MAC) opened to the public. In 1979, the Benedum Gallery was established. The Mabel DeVries Tanner Theatre was dedicated in January 1981 and is now home to the MACplayers, MAC's community theatre group. The Tanner Theatre also serves as a community space for all forms of performing arts, including performances by local and touring music groups, comedians, lecturers, and more. In 2005, the Robert M. Davis Gallery for Emerging Artists opened on the second floor. MAC is open Monday through Friday 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., Saturday 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., and Sunday by appointment only. (Listed NRHP 1979)

Today I successfully upgraded from Slackware 12 to 12.1, but I have loads of questions regarding the following .new config files.
During the last upgrade from Slackware 11 to 12 I skipped them, but this time I want to know what I should change.
1) For most (default) users the /bin/false is added as patch to the default shell.
Should I add this directory to the users with an UID below 100 (except root), and can I do that with vipw or can I better use usermod –s /bin/false <user> to change them one by one?
3) I discovered that my shadow file is missing an entry for user apache. This user is present in /etc/passwd.
4) The new shadow also shows the users dbus and avahi are removed.
Should I change this, and how (vi)?
Should I set this for all users?
7) The new group file show a x for the password (group:x: ) i.s.o. notting (so specifies the use of /etc/gshadow as the passwd file).
Should I change the group file, and how (vi)? And should I also change the /etc/gshadow file?
12) The new gshadow is completely empty.
What is the reason of this empty gshadow.new file? Do I need to take some action?
Is a missing entry in the gshadow file the same as no password in /etc/group (e.g. newgrp <group> cannot be used)?
I hope there is someone that answer at least some of them.

Personally, I did not see any reason to use the new passwd and group files. I just removed the new ones and kept my old ones. I have had no problems with this, and I have not heard of anyone mentioning otherwise. I go over this and many other upgrade related tasks in my Slackware 12.0-12.1 Upgrade HowTo (see my signature).
You might want to add your users to the lp group (see the HowTo).
Seems like this advice should apply to Slackware as well.
I saw in your howto something about bootsplash, but this is not the bootsplash from www.bootsplash.org, but just a graphical screen during lilo correct?
I will try to get some time this weekend to read your HowTo.
In Slackware you have "slocate" which, if your database is up to date will very quickly provide a list of search results.
Updating the database can be performed with the command "updatedb".
So "slocate .new" will give a list of results, about the same as find /etc -name "*.new".
I hope someone can still answer a few of my questions.
I tried to login as apache, but that wasn't possible, so I'm not that concerned anymore.
You should use diff/sdiff to compare the new and old files to see if there are any differences beyond the users and groups you have added. It could be that new groups have been added and some users have been added to different groups.
For example, there were recently changes to the stock users and groups to accommodate the automatic mounting of devices through HAL. If you just deleted the .new file and didn't notice the new groups added, you would probably be scratching your head for some time trying to figure out what went wrong with the upgrade.
That being said, you definitely don't want to overwrite your files with the .new files in this case. Doing so would prevent you from being able to login when you started your machine back up; and in the case of a server with many users and groups you could be looking at a serious problem (of course you should have backups...but that is another topic entirely).

Correct. It is just the LILO boot screen splash. It is a simple yet stylish black and white Slackware logo.
I agree that a diff should always be done just to be sure, but something significant like that would most likely be in the CHANGES_AND_HINTS.TXT as well.
Thanks for pointing out sdiff. I indeed used diff to find the differences of the .new files as you can see in my first post.
with sdiff on the old and new /etc/passwd if discovered there where two other users in the .new file "nobody" and "pop".
So another question (13), should I add these?
As mentioned in my start post I also didn't tough these 4 files after upgrading from 11.0 to 12.0 (but also then the C&H file didn't mention anything else than now if I'm not mistaken).
I did read your HowTo and it was indeed helpful.
Especially the info about slackpkg.
I always make my packages with my initials in the build, but the output of non-slack packages reminded my of some cleanup I needed to perform on old splashy packages.

Where is the best place to stay to get on the ATV trails? I am willing to do tents or stay in a cabin. Is there any places that hook up directly to the trails or do you have trailer to get to the trails?
There isn't any direct access to Jericho yet. There are a bunch of motorlodges in Gorham that you can look into. Pretty easy drive to the park from there.
I stayed at Mt Madison in Gorham in Aug 2014. Parked quads in front of my room. Drove thru town on the ATVs to get lunch. Quick drive to the trails. This is the best way to go.
You can now ride out of the Town and Country Motor Inn. Plenty of room and plenty of amenities.

Whether it is grief over the loss of a loved one, a home, a country, dream, or way of life, many times the violence, depression, reckless consumption, and apathy we see in the world today and feel within ourselves comes from this sense of loss. Through the Growing Through Grief series we looked at each stage of grief and used resonance repatterning to shift ways that we get stuck in these stages and come into alignment with an acceptance that is not apathetic, but rather authentically proactive.
You can check out the entire series on the World Peace Hologram website and if you would like to participate, you can still proxy in by filling out the surveys for each of the stages.

Review: Everything Belongs To The Future by Laurie Penny
8:35 am 12 October 2016
For me, science fiction is at its best when it tells an allegorical story reflecting on issues of the present day, and this is what makes Laurie Penny's Everything Belongs To The Future such a strong work.
In 2098, scientists have created a Fountain of Youth in a little blue pill. This creates a gerotocracy that only further divides the haves from the have-nots, as the pill is marketed to the rich, and priced so only the wealthy have access. A small group of idealistic youths with aspirations of political revolution attempt to undermine this disparity and create a modified version of the drug, appropriately named a Time Bomb, to undermine the quest for longevity.
A writer on social justice, feminism, and gender issues, journalist Laurie Penny brings all of these topics to bear in her science fiction debut (Penny has written several non-fiction titles, including 2014's Unspeakable Things: Sex, Lies, and Revolution). Her vision of England at the turn of the next century is highly recognizable, but subtly shaded with the repercussions of present-day issues (certain segments of England, for instance, are underwater thanks to many of our Old White Man politicians ignoring climate change and its now-unstoppable effects on future generations). There's plenty of justifiable anger simmering in this book's plot, as well, and while the character's motives are nicely gray their final solution is anything but.
Everything Belongs To The Future is richly political and frighteningly dark, but there's also a certain honesty to it's 'what if' nature that I appreciate. It's better to have a bitter truth than a comforting lie, in my opinion, and this title certainly hits on several unsavory truths about mankind, ambition, and greed.

Pop Picks Up New Series "Hot Date"
Pop continues its push into original scripted programming. The cable network, owned jointly by CBS and Lionsgate, is expanding its original slate with three new scripted series, including its first drama, Pop president Brad Schwartz announced this week at the 2017-2018 upfront presentation to advertisers.
The offerings, aimed at what Pop brass dubbed the "modern grown-up" demo of post-Millennials, include Clique, a one-hour drama series in the risqué vein of such Shondaland series as Scandal and How To Get Away With Murder (watch a trailer above); CollegeHumor comedy Hot Date (watch a trailer below), executive produced by Will Arnett; and comedy Swedish Dicks, Private Investigators, starring Peter Stormare and features Keanu Reeves. They will join the upcoming fourth season of Pop's flagship comedy Schitt's Creek, starring Eugene Levy, Catherine O'Hara and Chris Elliott, and second season of Nightcap, a behind-the-scenes comedy set at a late-night talk show.
Pop also has nabbed exclusive rights to the full, 331-episode, 15-year run of ER. The hospital drama, which made stars of George Clooney and Julianna Margulies, quietly launched on Pop two weeks ago and has been delivering strong ratings. Additionally, Pop unveiled nine new scripted and unscripted projects in development from Sarah Jessica Parker, Krysten Ritter, Mary McCormack, Rashida Jones and Kate Walsh, among others.
"Pop continues to defy industry trends with consistent year-over-year growth in all areas of our business and a line-up of premium content featuring award-winning talent in front of and behind the camera," Schwartz told advertisers and industry journalists in a series of one-on-one presentations this week in New York.
Michael DuPont, EVP for ad sales, said that Pop has added 58 new national advertisers, expanded its distribution on traditional cable and over-the-top platforms, and drove double digit growth in viewership among A18-49 (+21%) and W25-54 (+13%), according to Nielsen (Total Day, L+7).
• HOT DATE created in partnership with digital powerhouse CollegeHumor and its studio, Big Breakfast (Adam Ruins Everything) and executive produced by Will Arnett's Electric Avenue Productions (Gong Show, Flaked), Principato-Young Entertainment and Big Breakfast, the half-hour scripted comedy stars Emily Axford and Brian K. Murphy and will premiere in Fall 2017.

White Ambassador Robert Critchlow of the NSW Police Force discusses elder abuse, the link to violence against women and initiatives that aim to fight this.
I am the Local Area Commander of the Hills in Sydney's North West based at Castle Hill. I also have roles in our corporate responses to Elder Abuse and Victim Care.
I received the honour of being an Ambassador in March 2016.
What is 'elder abuse' and why is this an issue to be considered when talking about men's violence against women?
A simple definition is that elder abuse is mistreatment of an older person by someone they know, trust or rely upon. This sadly is usually a family member or a spouse, and is usually a son or daughter. Internationally, there is an estimated victimisation rate of 6% of the older population.
Abuse is complex, and not always purely physical. The most prominent form of abuse is psychological, followed by financial, neglect, physical abuse and fortunately sexual abuse is the rarest. What is noteworthy is that an older person suffering any form of abuse has a greatly increased chance of suffering ill health and dying early. For example defrauding an older family member of their house or finances causes psychological distress which results in poor health and death. It is very serious.
The abuse of an older family member is domestic violence both in principle and law. The issues are the same, it is a misuse of power in a relationship causing harm to the sufferer. From a White Ribbon standpoint there is no difference, we need men to stop being violent or abusive to their parents or grandparents, and to speak up if their wives are abusing her parents, or if others they know are defrauding or abusing older people in their lives. There are many case studies of women suffering domestic violence from their husbands only to suffer further abuse from their sons and grandsons, often over an adult lifetime of 50 to 60 years.
What initiatives have been enacted by different organisations to address this issue?
The leading intervention in NSW is the Elder Abuse Helpline which provides an advice and referral service for any caller wishing to seek advice about abuse of older people. Most states and territories have similar services. The number in NSW is 1800 628 221 and they are very skilled at providing relevant and useful advice and have many connections to helping agencies.
The NSW Police Force is clearly skilled at responding to reports of domestic violence and we use those skills in managing abuse of older people. We also assist other agencies in their responses. There is much that can be done. For example, if businesses provide services to older people it is imperative that a watching role is taken over vulnerable older people who need assistance in their affairs. If an older person suddenly makes risky investments or moves large amount of cash then questions must be asked. The Financial Services Council is working with it members to ensure these protections.
Many community groups are conducting training and awareness for their members to enable them to be mindful of the sometimes hidden issue and to empower them to speak up. The helpline and police are happy to assist with this.
We need every responsible man in the business or services world to keep an eye out for older people and provide them the support and respect they need.
What advice would you give to individuals who want to take action on the issue of elder abuse?
The Elder Abuse Helpline should be a primary response strategy for anyone concerned about an older person. This includes people suffering from abuse personally. GPs and emergency doctors are also excellent resources and must be consulted if the health of the older person is suffering.
The Police Force has domestic violence liaison officers and crime prevention officers who have had awareness training and have the skills to manage family dysfunction. They are able to offer advice on the best course of action. Police and ambulance must be called when there is clear evidence of physical harm to a vulnerable older person or a serious crime having been committed. A failure to do so can be an offence itself for failing to disclose a crime to police.

For Sale: a Minimalist, Modernist Dwell Covergirl
By Sarah Firshein Oct 24, 2011, 12:47pm EDT
Speaking of listings previously seen in Dwell, here's one that we feel deserves a closer second look: a two-bedroom, two-bathroom, 2,200-square-foot Phoenix property that was featured in the December/January issue of the magazine. According to the story, penned by Jamie Gross, the guys who built Meadowbrook Residence (and who have been living in it) are two Berkeley grads—both lovers of, ahem, "minimalist architecture, rock climbing, and 'not talking'"—who went on to found Phoenix-based design firm Atherton Keener. Some details about their home, which is now asking $399K: it's essentially made of concrete and drywall; the layout consists of two bedrooms separated by a living room; to minimize the effect of the glaring Arizona sun, there are no exposures on the west-facing wall; and much of the cabinetry (in the bathroom, kitchen, closets, and hallways) was handmade out of marine-grade plywood and dyed black. Even the sinks and tubs were fashioned from that material and treated with marine-grade epoxy resin. "Our interest was in using standard things on a relatively unremarkable site and creating something that was more than the sum of its parts," Jay Atherton told Dwell, later adding, "Our friends know that this house lacks a certain amount of comfort, but everyone adapts to what it does have. When people come over to eat, we usually sit on the floor—we keep it really clean—or outside. We've all adapted to what it means to not have a dining table. We don't have a couch. It can be a bit of a problem."

DISASTER IN NEPAL
"I ran in shock toward the airport and all I saw were heads, arms and blood"
Spanish survivors of Nepal's devastating earthquake give accounts of their ordeals
Miguel González
New Delhi - 28 Apr 2015-10:19 UTC
The first group of 37 Spaniards evacuated from Kathmandu, Nepal.Zipi (EFE)
Two groups of Spaniards who were stranded in Nepal after Saturday's devastating earthquake arrived in New Delhi late Tuesday night as part of the first round of evacuees rescued by the Spanish government.
Looking tired and exhausted, the first group consisted of 36 adults and a baby. Later, 78 more Spaniards were brought to the Indian capital.
Most did not want to speak to reporters after their three-day ordeal, but the few who did could not contain their sadness and anger.
The entire city was flattened, it just doesn't exist anymore"
"They treated us like dogs," said Jonathan Herranz, a 27-year-old resident of Barcelona who was able to leave Nepal on a commercial Spice Jet airliner.
Saturday's 7.8-magnitude earthquake hit as he was riding in a taxi on the way to the airport. The vehicle slammed against a house but he quickly managed to get out of the taxi with the help of a Nepalese man.
The driver and two other passengers died smothered in the vehicle.
"I ran for 45 minutes in shock toward the airport and all I saw were heads, arms and pools of blood, and a lot of very worried people," Herranz said. "The entire city was flattened, it just doesn't exist anymore. Its historic heritage has been totally destroyed.
For the next 50 hours, he was confined at the airport watched by two armed guards and told he couldn't leave the country unless he paid for a new visa.
Humanitarian aid arrived at the airport but the only water bottles were passed out to the Nepalese"
"Each bottle of water cost $10. Like me, everyone else got robbed," he explained.
According to Herranz, priority was given to Indians and Chinese, who were separated from the rest of the foreigners and given food and water.
"We spent 50 hours standing on the airstrip; it was raining and I was wearing a short-sleeve shirt with no blankets to cover us. It was very cold – I am an adult but there were children there too."
Herranz said tons of humanitarian aid arrived at the airport in Kathmandu but the only thing he saw passed out to the Nepalese were water bottles.
"The shipments arrived at the airport but they never left the facility," he said, calling the Nepalese government "the worst scourge" he had seen in his life.
While the entire experience left him "depressed," he said he was still "proud to have a government like the one we have in Spain."
"At least they rescued me from a catastrophe and didn't try to swindle me like they did," he said, in reference to the Nepalese authorities.
Herranz was only in Kathmandu for 19 days, but Mikel Aingueru Leizeaga, a 49-year-old Gipuzkoa native, has been living in Nepal for 22 years along with his Nepalese wife.
Local residents gathered together at a camp, sharing basic essentials with others, such as blankets and a bit of tea
When the quake hit at 11.57am on Saturday, he was at his travel agency located in Thamel. "It's a backpacker's favorite neighborhood, but you can't escape from there because all the buildings are lined close together, and not even a truck could drive through the streets, much less a taxi."
"You have no escape route," he explained.
The seven-floor building next to his agency collapsed as the earth shook, so he sought refuge in a public garden. For two nights he slept in a camp with other local residents, sharing basic essentials such as blankets, mattresses, cookies and a bit of tea.
The worst part was when the 70 subsequent aftershocks hit. "It is like eternity because you can't sleep and each time you felt the ground shaking below your feet you think it will be worse than the first one."
Some of Mikel's friends were killed and others have not been located. He said he fears that the country will be without water, electricity and food for some time, which could cause epidemics.
But he still has plans on returning. "As soon as the shock wears off," he said.
Airport chaos in Nepal delays Spain's evacuation efforts
