Connoisseurs of outdoor dining will love the fact that there's a bit of everything, both aesthetically and practically, about this set.
The benefits aesthetically can be seen in the featured photos – the classic honey-coloured lustre of A Grade teak, the smooth hand finished beauty of the timber, the contoured ergonomics of the seating and the striking but practical design that makes the table so eye-catching.
However, the Winchester Extending Set has practical benefits as well.
The Chelsea Table extends in three positions – 1.6m, 2m and 2.6m – allowing it to accommodate gatherings with friends and family both large and small.
But it's unique because it extends from either end as opposed to in the middle, which is more commonly seen in extending tables.
This means the 2m length is simpler to achieve and, if there's a parasol involved it can remain in place whatever length the table is being extended or closed to.
There's long lasting practicality as well.
Mortice and tenon joints reinforced with teak dowels are used in the construction of all our teak dining sets meaning they both look great but also stand the test of time at the same time.
More widely available, mass produced sets tend to be bolted together meaning they seriously run the risk of failing in a very short period of time after purchase.
And the fact it's made from the finest quality teak means you really are buying a set that's perfect for outdoor use all year round.
Some may not know, but A Grade varieties of this timber naturally contain a very high oil content along with an extremely dense grain making the furniture produced from them able to withstand the elements year round without the need to apply external protectors.
Over time the timber will age to that familiar silver-grey patina which is loved by so many.
For purely cosmetic external applications you may want to take a look at our range of Teak Care Products.
Please do not hesitate to call our Showroom in the Midlands for further advice if required.
Set comprises of one Chelsea Extending Table, two Winchester Stacking Armchairs and six Winchester Stacking Dining Chairs.

Q: Compute the generating functional for the $bc$ theory I need the generating functional for the $bc$ CFT, which has $$L=\frac{1}{2\pi}(b\bar{\partial}c + b\partial\bar{c}),$$ so I can compute the correlation function $$\langle b(z_1)c(z_2)\rangle =\frac{1}{z_{12}}.$$
I know that for a scalar field theory, the generating functional is defined as
$$Z[J] = \int D\phi \exp\left\{i\int d^4 x[L+J(x)\phi(x)]\right\}$$
which can be put in a more explicit form by making a change of variables and completing the square. But I can't figure out how to get an analogous expression for the $bc$ theory. I think there must be two sources $J_b$ and $J_c$. Then I have something like
$$Z[J] = \int DcDb \exp\left\{i\int d^4 x[L+J_b(x)b(x)+J_c(x)c(x)]\right\}$$
and I know at some point I'm supposed to complete the square in the exponential to get it in a useful form, but I can't see how to do that here since there are no quadratic terms.

A: The action is a quadratic form, just one consisting of off-diagonal terms. So you can formally complete the square by writing
\begin{align}
b\bar{\partial}c + bJ_b + J_cc = (b + J_c \bar{\partial}^{-1}) \bar{\partial} (c + \bar{\partial}^{-1} J_b) - J_c \bar{\partial}^{-1} J_b.
\end{align}
This is essentially the same manipulation by which one derives the propagator of the Dirac field.

Artist Review: Chloe Early
I am thrilled to be able to share some inspirational art with you every Tuesday morning as Rachael's new 'Art and Creative Writer'. This week, we're showcasing the exquisite paintings of Chloe Early.
Chloe grew up in Cork, Ireland and since graduating from NCAD Dublin in 2003 has pursued her painting practice and exhibited in Cork, Dublin, London and Los Angeles. In 2004 she moved to London where she currently lives and works.
Chloe has developed a unique style working in oils on linen and aluminium panels. Her work shows a freely expressed almost graffiti style mixed with finely painted representational imagery which creates a dream-like tension between the real and unreal. "Early aims to layer motifs and meanings, using imagery from a range of sources, her own photographs, magazines, books, the internet and travel ads to create paintings whose meaning shift and blur like a troubled dream."*
She cleverly combines graphic, urban scenes with beautifully rendered colour palettes and eye-catching compositions which depict many layers of meaning. Chloe's website shows her current work and details her forthcoming exhibitions – a talented and skilled artist to inspire your Tuesday! More next week! Justine x

The excellent people at Manchester's premium spoken word experience Bad Language kindly invited me to join them for a reading at Kendal Calling festival this weekend. Wading ankle-deep through mud to the Carvetti stage in the Lost Eden area, I was humbled to join Mark Powell, David Hartley and host Joe Daly in bringing words to the woods. They are fantastic writers, and it was an absolute delight to hear more of their work. And because we all camped together, I was actually able to have a natter with them afterwards – on the rare occasions Mon and I go to Manchester, we always have to leave early, so it was a pleasure getting to know them better. Good people. Between Dave's otherworldly species-bending marvels, Mark's lists of life hacks and surreal perfume adverts, and Joe's wonderful reinventions of everyday struggles as particular and personal Everests, it was humbling company to keep.
I read Coffin Routes, some of my new circus stories and several bits of Marrow. It was a tough and mobile crowd – the stage was right beside a main walkway between much louder stages – but there were gasps, winces and laughs throughout, so I think we held our own. We made the Top 12 highlights of the festival for Gigwise, too.
We didn't catch much else of the festival, but what we caught was fantastic. As always, British Sea Power were magnificent. There aren't many bands who sustain years of constant reinvention without sacrificing their core identity – Mogwai, for sure, and maybe Super Furry Animals – but BSP are treasures. They made ferocious headliners of the Woodlands stage on Saturday night, tearing through their back catalogue to finish with a sprawling Spirit of St Louis complete with crowdsurfing and Ursa the bear. One day, I will be that bear. One day. That was the sixth time I've seen them, and they keep getting better.
And then there was Kate Tempest. Mon and I knew and liked what we'd already heard of her work, so thought we'd mosey along to see her set on Friday. We were there early enough to be right at the front for one of the most amazing hours of my life. We thought she'd be good, but she was extraordinary. Brimful of passion, rage, courage and love, she was electrifying from start to finish, scintillating, blazing her way through the set like a sermon. And the music, too, was titanic, walls of sound that towered upward, a perfect fusion with the words. It was magnificent. Near the end of the set, Kate made eye contact with Mon for ten, fifteen seconds, rapped to her, sung to her. For the rest of that night, and the next day, and even now, aftershocks of her performance are still shaking through my life. Nothing seems quite the same.
The only downer was missing Seven Seals. They were playing at the same time as the Bad Language set on Sunday. In between readings, I could hear them scorching through their psychedelic synth-punk wonders. More people need to know about Seven Seals. Everyone needs to know about Seven Seals. Go and see Seven Seals.
When the reading was done, Mon and I said our farewells to the Bad Language crew and fled while we could, squelching through the swamps to the car. The campsite was a happy, slightly delirious Lord Of The Flies. Festivals and mud. That's how it goes, right? A hundred tons of woodchip to soak up the swamps. It's just as well I'm writing about bogs. Kendal Calling proved invaluable research.
Thanks again to Bad Language. It was an honour to serve with you, gentlemen.
I'm very pleased to share the news that I'll be appearing at the Bloody Scotland crime writing festival in Stirling this September. Hot on the heels of discussing outsiders and myths with Chigozie Obioma and Fiammetta Rocco at Edinburgh International Book Festival, I'll be joining Mark Douglas-Home and Kirstin Innes to chat through the wonders of water in crime novels. The sea is a perfect companion to mystery, crime and puzzles, and I'm really looking forward to seeing where we go with it. You should come too. Tickets here!
And, if you haven't already, please vote for The Visitors in the EIBF First Book Award – any and all support very much appreciated.

An Afro-Pakistani Poet
Via 3 Quarks Daily, I read a profile of Noon Meem Danish, an Urdu-speaking poet from Karachi who is of African descent. The author of the piece, Asif Farrukhi, makes reference initially to some places I hadn't heard of:
Whether you think of Lyari as Karachi's Harlem or Harlem as a Lyari in New York, for Noon Meem Danish places provide a context but not a definition. 'I am what I am'; he explains his signature with a characteristic mixture of pride and humility. Off-beat and defiant, he was a familiar figure in the literary landscape of the '70s and '80s. His poems expressing solidarity with the Negritude and the plight of blacks all over the world were referred to in Dr Firoze Ahmed's social topography of the African-descent inhabitants of Pakistan. Karachi's poet Noon Meem Danish now makes his home in the New York state of mind, and feels that he is very much in his element there. (link)
Lyari, one learns, is a town in/near Karachi where many of Karachi's Africans (an estimated 500,000 of them) live. Their ancestors came to Balochistan as slaves via Arab traders (Noon Meem Danish defines himself ethnically as "Baloch," which was confusing to me until I made the connection).
The Afro-Pakistani community, perhaps not surprisingly, hasn't been treated particularly well, according to this essay in SAMAR magazine (skip down towards the end for some disturbing references to the extra-judicial killing of African youths). It's not surprising that Noon Meem Danish, given his penchant for poetry, would consider leaving.
Danish is pretty forthright about the difference in how he is perceived in Karachi vs. New York:
More than home, Karachi was for him the city of the torment of recognition. 'I was black and in Karachi it was always a shocking experience when people would ask me where I came from. They would ask how come you are speaking saaf Urdu. I had to explain myself each time.'
Karachi University wouldn't hire him, but NYU did, and now he teaches at the University of Maryland (where he teaches in the foreign language department -- Urdu, I presume). It's interesting to think of someone of African descent emigrating to the U.S. because it's less racist than the place where he grew up, but there you have it.
You can see Noon Meem Danish reciting at a Mushaira on YouTube (he's at 2:30).

I think South Asians are prejudiced, in general. I recall innumerable times that people in Pakistan or India asking me if the city where I live has a lot of "kalay" in it and whether it has less crime because there are so few of them there. I've had people tell me they find "kalay" threatening and that they try to avoid them if at all possible.
Remember the movie "Mississippi Masala" and the reaction of the family to the daughter dating Denzel Washington?
Perhaps the younger South Asians growing up in the US are more open to others, but in the home country racism against blacks is quite alive, even today.
I don't remember seeing a single black person in my 24 years in India -- the influx of African students did not start till the sixties. While in college I did have a classmate with the surname Wadehra. He was Indian, a Punjabi Muslim, with Saudi looks and very kinky brown hair which he always kept short. An ominous looking fellow but a sweetheart. Some of the Hindi speakers in our class took to calling him "habshi" (slave). Perhaps these people knew of the African connection and were not just being hurtful? Had I an ounce of curiosity then, I might have asked him. Do you know of the non-derogatory use of the term "habshi" among Indians or Arabs?
Ruchira Paul said...
Two Indians of African descent that I was familiar with in childhood (although I only realized that fact when I was a bit older) was Siddhi (that's what he was commonly known as) and Prakash. Siddhi was my father's favorite fishmonger who came to our home early every morning during the first ten years of my life bearing the "best catch of the day" for my father. He belonged to the Siddhi community of coastal Gujarat whose members trace their ancestry to Africa. Siddhi was dark skinned but looked no different from any other Indian. Prakash, my uncle's motorcycle mechanic who too came to our home to do the repairs on the Royal Enfield, was a true blue African. A Kenyan by birth, he had been adopted in his infancy by a Punjabi couple in Nairobi who later moved to India when Prakash was a toddler. Well over 6' 3", he was an extremely handsome, gentle giant who spoke fluent Hindia and Punjabi. Given Prakash's size and build, I doubt that anyone called him a Habshi .... at least surely not to his face.
Habshi doesn't mean "slave" technically. It is derived from the word Abyssinian but does have a derogatory connotation in India and Pakistan. In my native language Bengali, I don't recall an equivalent word. But among my Hindi and Punjabi speaking friends, the word was common parlance. Some of my Punjabi friends' mothers would gently chide their fair complected daughters to stay out of the sun lest they start looking like "Habshis." And that extremely kinky hair that Narayan refers to, I have seen that trait mostly among dark complexioned Keralites and fair skinned Punjabis.
Narayan, by the time I was in college, (late sixties - early seventies) there were quite a few students from Africa in Delhi university. The way some students behaved with them was deplorable. They also found more difficulty in renting rooms around the university campus than other foreign students did. But then most foreign students (Thai, Arab, Indonesian, European) faced insulting conduct frequently. Even diasporic Indians from Fiji, east Africa, Mauritius etc. and genuine Indians from the northeast (Assam, Nagaland, Manipur), as also Tibetan and Sikkimese students faced rude behavior at the hands of the local toughs. Most groups swallowed the insults and went about their business, sharing their discomfort with their more sympathetic Indian friends. Except the well built and fleet of foot, soccer & hockey playing Tibetan boys. I witnessed some truly blood curdling retributive justice meted out to those who made the mistake of calling them "Chinks."
The question of race is muddled and external appearances misleading but we just can't let go of it. South Asians are as obsessed with it as anyone else. My husband's elderly Punjabi aunt could not until her dying day, forget to mention at the end of every conversation I had with her that for a Bengali, my Hindi was surprisingly flawless. Race is such an inexact thing that it is best not to make too much of it as James Watson has probably realized now.
Amardeep, please forgive me for two rapid links to self promotion. We have discussed the race / IQ / genetic trait controversy extensively at our blog. Please see what my co-blogger Anna wrote regarding something else Malcom Gladwell has said about IQ, this time Jewish IQ specifically.

Museum Making: Creating with New Technologies in Art Museums
Desi Gonzalez S.M., Comparative Media Studies, 2015	/ in theses / Published May 14, 2015
Hackathons, maker spaces, R&D labs: these terms are common to the world of technology, but have only recently seeped into museums. The last few years have witnessed a wave of art museum initiatives that invite audiences-from casual visitors to professional artists and technologists-to take the reins of creative production using emerging technologies. The goals of this thesis are threefold. First, I situate this trend, which I call "museum making," within two historical narratives: the legacy of museums as sites for art making and the birth of hacker and maker cultures. These two lineages-histories of art-based and technology-based creative production-are part of a larger participatory ethos prevalent today. A second goal of this thesis is to document museum making initiatives as they emerge, with an eye to how staff members at museums are able to develop such programs despite limited financial, technological, or institutional support or knowledge. Finally, I critically examine how museum making may or may not challenge traditional structures of power in museums. Museum making embodies a tension between the desire to make the museum a more open and equitable space-both by inviting creators into the museum, and by welcoming newer forms of creative production that might not align with today's art world-and the need to maintain institutions' authority as arbiters of culture. My analysis draws on a wide range of fields, including sociology, educational theory, media studies, museum studies, and art theory. This thesis is informed by extensive fieldwork conducted at three sites: the Los Angeles County Museum of Art's Art + Technology Lab, a program that awards artist grants and mentorship from individuals and technology companies such as Google and SpaceX; the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Media Lab, an innovation lab that invites members of New York's creative technology community to develop prototypes for and based on the museum experience; and the Peabody Essex Museum's Maker Lounge, an in-gallery space in which visitors are invited to tinker with high and low technologies.

Not long ago I was rostered a flight to New York, the city that never sleeps.
After a long 14 hour flight, we landed into JFK airport and were soon on our way to our hotel in the city. Since it was a nice evening, a group of us decided to walk to Central Park to have a drink and watch the sunset.
The view from my room – skyscrapers galore!
Our hotel is right by Times Square, so it's not a long walk towards Central Park. However it was very busy, but then again that's New York for you, always busy and full of people!
Right as we were at the entrance to Central Park, I felt something wet land on my head, a bird had pooped all over my hair, as well as one of the other guy's feet! I guess it's good luck..haha!
We strolled on through the park, where everyone was out enjoying the balmy evening.
We stopped at the Boathouse for a drink, a lovely little restaurant with outdoor seating overlooking the lake.
You can actually even go for a gondola ride if you want to feel like you're in Venice!
There were plenty of people queueing up to hire boats to take out onto the water, but we just sat and enjoyed the view.
Before long the sun was starting to set, and the sky turned a beautiful pink colour.
After having been awake for around 24 hours at this point, most of us were feeling a bit tired, so decided to head back towards the hotel, stopping for a bite to eat from one of the carts lining the streets.
The next morning I didn't have any plans for the day, and as I have done plenty of sightseeing in the past, decided to just take it easy and have a chilled out day.
But when in New York, there's one thing you can't pass up, and that is a fresh bagel! Normally I'm not a huge fan of bagels, but I decided to walk to Pick-A-Bagel, which has an enormous variety to choose from. The picture doesn't even justify how huge my bagel was, stuffed with so much cream cheese that it was almost exploding!
I could only manage half, and took the other half with me for the flight. I continued walking on towards Columbus Circle, where there is a huge Whole Foods, to pick up a few supermarket bits and bobs.
All in all it was a pretty relaxed layover in New York; sometimes you just need to take it easy!

Culture, its evolution and anything inbetween
Tag: Ben Zimmer
Some Links #12: What if there had never been a cognitive revolution?
What if there had never been a cognitive revolution? Apparently, nothing would really be all that different according to Nicolas Baumard over at ICCI. It's all speculative, in a similar vein to alternative history fiction (I recommend: Making History by Stephen Fry and Difference Engine by William Gibson and Bruce Sterling), with Baumard stating:
My point here is that these key ideas would have emerged even without a Cognitive Revolution. Take for instance the idea that the mind cannot be a blank slate. This idea is totally natural to evolutionary biologists. What about the mind as "a complex system composed of many interacting parts"? Without going back to La Mettrie, Hutcheson or Descartes, one can argue that the idea of modularity is at the core of the research program of neuropsychology since its beginning (the same is true, albeit at a lesser degree, for evolutionary biology). We should not forget as well that, with or without the Cognitive Revolution, brain imaging techniques would have emerged and would have joined neuropsychology and evolutionary biology in decomposing the mind. Add the methodological advances of developmental psychology or social psychology – which were not part of the Cognitive revolution – and you get a pretty big part of today's 'Cognition and Culture'.
'Mad Men' -ese. Ben Zimmer has a cool article on Mad Men (easily one of the best shows to have emerged in recent years) and its dedication to accurately portraying 1960s dialogue. But with such dedication comes equally dedicated, and pedantic, criticisms of some of the lines used. For example, Zimmer points to Don's line "The window for this apology is closing" as being tied to the 70s use of window in a metaphorical sense. On another note: the new season of Mad Men begins tomorrow (25th June) in America.
A growing isolated brain can organize itself. Deric Bownds points to an article by Zhou et al (2010) which disconnected a mouse's neocortex from the rest of its brain to see how the surface map developed. The results:
During these weeks, the mutant mice, despite having disconnected brains, display a variety of behaviors: eating, drinking, walking, and swimming. Thus, "protomap" formation, namely cortical lamination and formation of areas, proceed normally in absence of extrinsic connections, but survival of projection neurons and acquisition of mature morphological and some electrophysiological features depend on the establishment of normal cortical–subcortical relationships.
Things I'd like to see: a nice, simple, colourful website on evidence-based social policy. Being an avid reader of Ben Goldacre's Bad Science column, and having read his book of the same name, I was surprised to find that he has another blog. Anyway, the linked post is fairly self-explanatory: he's calling for someone to create a website looking at evidence-based social policy (something he's been discussing since at least 2007). I'm a big fan of this idea, which would see social policy based on less rhetorical wrangling and more on actual evidence:
There are three key stages in evidence-based practise: you generate evidence; you collate and appraise it, and then you disseminate and implement. It feels to me like the last bit is currently underdone, and often it takes one clear information hub, or an organisation devoted to promoting something, to move things on.
Why money makes you unhappy. Money is apparently not very good at making us happy. Jonah Lehrer writes about a study exploring the experience-stretching hypothesis, and how it relates to money and happiness. Basically, the argument is that because money allows us to enjoy the best things in life, we actually end up lessening our ability to enjoy the mundane aspects of our life. As the mundane aspects are most frequent, then this isn't necessarily a good thing. This comes on the back of another paper claiming that the United States, currently the richest nation on Earth, is slowly getting less satisfied with life. As the current study states:
Taken together, our findings provide evidence for the provocative notion that having access to the best things in life may actually undermine one's ability to reap enjoyment from life's small pleasures. Our research demonstrates that a simple reminder of wealth produces the same deleterious effects as actual wealth on an individual's ability to savor, suggesting that perceived access to pleasurable experiences may be sufficient to impair everyday savoring. In other words, one need not actually visit the pyramids of Egypt or spend a week at the legendary Banff spas in Canada for one's savoring ability to be impaired—simply knowing that these peak experiences are readily available may increase one's tendency to take the small pleasures of daily life for granted.

Some Links #11: Linguistic Diversity or Homogeneity?
Linguistic Diversity = Poverty. Razib Khan basically argues, correctly in my opinion, that linguistic homogeneity is good for economic development and general prosperity. From the perspective of a linguist, however, I do like the idea of really obscure linguistic communities, ready and waiting to be discovered and documented. On the flip side, it is selfish of me to want these small communities to remain in a bubble, free from the very same benefits I enjoy in belonging to a modern, post-industrialised society. Our goal, then, should probably be more focused on documenting, as opposed to saving, these languages. Razib has recently posted another, quite lengthy post on the topic: Knowledge is not value-free.
When did we first 'Rock the Mic'? A meeting of my two favourite interests over at the New York Times: Linguistics and Hip Hop. Ben Zimmer writes:
In "Rapper's Delight," the M.C. Big Bank Hank raps, "I'm gonna rock the mic till you can't resist," using what was then a novel sense of rock, defined by the O.E.D. as "to handle effectively and impressively; to use or wield effectively, esp. with style or self-assurance." To be sure, singers in the prerap era often used rock as a transitive verb, whether it was Bill Haley promising, "We're gonna rock this joint tonight," or the bluesman Arthur "Big Boy" Crudup more suggestively wailing, "Rock me, mama." But the M.C.'s of early hip-hop took the verb in a new direction, transforming the microphone (abbreviated in rap circles as mic, not mike) into an emblem of stylish display. Later elaborations on the theme would allow clothes and other accessories to serve as the objects of rock, as when Kanye West boasted in a 2008 issue of Spin magazine, "I rock a bespoke suit and I go to Harold's for fried chicken."
It'd be nice to see more stuff on linguistics and hip hop, and, having said that, I might write a bit on the subject. In fact, I would go as far as to say that hip hop is part of reason why I fell into linguistics: the eloquent word play encouraged, and perhaps moulded, my fascination with language. To demonstrate why, here's a track by Maryland rapper, Edan, who certainly knows how to rock the mic:
Edan — One Man Arsenal
Life without language. Neuroanthropology provides yet another great read. This time it's on the topic of life without language — something that's always crept into my thoughts, yet seems impossible to imagine (as I'm already so embedded within a language-using society). The post goes on to discuss Susan Schaller and the case of a profoundly deaf Mexican immigrant who did not learn sign language:
The man she would call, 'Ildefonso,' had figured out how to survive, in part by simply copying those around him, but he had no idea what language was. Schaller found that he observed people's lips and mouth moving, unaware that they were making sound, unaware that there was sound, trying to figure out what was happening from the movements of the mouths. She felt that he was frustrated because he thought everyone else could figure things out from looking at each others' moving mouths.
One problem for Schaller's efforts was that Ildefonso's survival strategy, imitation, actually got in the way of him learning how to sign because it short-circuited the possibility of conversation. As she puts, Ildefonso acted as if he had a kind of visual echolalia (we sometimes call it 'echopraxia'), simply copying the actions he saw
One Man's Take on the Facts of the Matter. Babel's Dawn takes a look at Tecumseh Fitch's book, The Evolution of Language, and concisely explains a clear departure between two camps in evolutionary linguistics:
One clear difference between the scenarios is in the role of the individual in relation to language. Language is somehow built into the brain in Chomsky's thought-first scenario, while it is learned from others in the topics-first approach. Empiricists, like Morten Christiansen and Nicholas Chater, see language as 'out there' to be learned while nativists, like Fitch and Chomsky, say there is an internal, I-language, and the language out there is merely the sum of all those little I-languages. How to settle the dispute? Look for factual evidence.

The Next Generation Bi-Level Passenger Rail Car was a failed design of bilevel intercity railroad passenger cars that was to be built by Sumitomo, with construction subcontracted to Nippon Sharyo. The contract was awarded in 2012 with delivery scheduled between 2015 and 2018. After delays in production, a prototype car failed buff strength testing in August 2015, leading to the cancellation of the contract with Nippon Sharyo. Siemens replaced Nippon Sharyo as the construction subcontractor in late 2017 and under the new contract, Siemens Venture railcars will be delivered between 2020 and 2023 instead of the bilevel design.

The bilevel cars were designed by the Next Generation Corridor Equipment Pool Committee (NGCE) under the provisions of the Passenger Rail Investment and Improvement Act of 2008. The cars were intended to replace single-level Amfleet and Horizon cars in the Midwest and supplement the bilevel Surfliner railcar and California Car railcars in California.

History
The Next Generation Bi-Level Passenger Rail Car was to be the third generation of a design that began with the California Car, which entered service in 1996. The California Car was derived from the design of Amtrak's successful Superliner long-distance coach, which entered service in 1979, but modified to account for use on corridor services with more frequent stops. The California Car is designed with two wide lower-level door openings per side, rather than the single narrow door of the Superliner; interior stairways are straight single flights, rather than spirals; seating for trips of at most six hours; and with total accessibility as an original criterion, rather than as an adaptation. An improved version of the California Car, the Surfliner, entered service in 2000.

Caltrans and Amtrak began drafting the specification for a third generation of the design in 2006. This specification, dubbed "Corridor Car for the 21st Century" or C21, became the basis for the design work undertaken by the Next Generation Corridor Equipment Pool Committee (NGCE) under the provisions of the Passenger Rail Investment and Improvement Act of 2008 beginning in 2009.

The specification encompassed three car types: a standard coach, a combination cab-baggage car, and a cafe-lounge car. All three types would measure  high,  long, and  wide. The cars were designed for low-level boarding only; the distance from the rail to the bottom step is . The coach would seat a maximum of 89 passengers, most of them on the upper level. Seating would be 2×2, with some table seating provided. Stairs at both ends of the car provided access between levels. There would be restrooms on both levels, and a bicycle rack on the lower level. The cab-baggage design would have capacity for 15 fewer passengers, with much of the lower level seating given over to checked baggage storage. The cafe-lounge would have a single staircase at one end, with the galley located centrally on the upper level. The car would have some passenger seating, but most space would be used for lounge seating.

Caltrans, on behalf of the state coalition (California, Michigan, Missouri and Illinois), issued a request for proposal (RFP) for building cars to the new bilevel specification in April 2012. Five companies submitted final proposals: Alstom, Construcciones y Auxiliar de Ferrocarriles (CAF), Kawasaki, Siemens, and Sumitomo. Caltrans awarded the contract to Sumitomo in November 2012. Sumitomo, in turn, selected Nippon Sharyo as the carbuilder for the order. The contract was for 130 cars, valued at $352 million. Eighty-eight of the cars were for the Midwestern states and 42 for California. Delivery of the new cars was scheduled for 2015–2018. The 88 Midwestern cars were funded by a $220 million American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) grant which, by law, had to be spent by September 30, 2017.

This ambitious schedule proved untenable. By May 2015, Caltrans acknowledged that the project was fourteen months behind schedule and replaced much of its project management team. The project slipped further that August when the new car shell failed a buff strength compression test. This failure forced a complete redesign of the car, delaying the project by at least two years. This would place delivery beyond the expiration of the ARRA funds.

In November 2017, Caltrans and Sumitomo announced that Siemens would replace Nippon Sharyo as a subcontractor. Under a new contract, valued at $371 million, Siemens would deliver 137 Siemens Venture single-level cars instead of bilevel cars. The cars will be delivered from mid-2020 to 2023.

Minnesota's Local Source for Film Music and Reviews
Review: The Raid 2 (2014)
The Raid 2 (2014)
Directed by: Gareth Evans
Premise: A sequel to the 2012 film. Set immediately following the events of the first picture, surviving SWAT officer Rama (Iko Uwais) goes undercover in an organized crime syndicate.
What Works: The Raid: Redemption was one of the best action films of many years. That picture was a marvelously crafted piece of work in which a SWAT team is ambushed and trapped inside of a high rise apartment complex and must fight their way out. Although thin on story, the 2012 picture had distinct characters, terrific cinematography and editing, an effective soundtrack, and some of the best fights and shootouts that had been seen in the action genre in some time. The set pieces of The Raid 2 are on par with its predecessor and in some cases exceed those of the original. Where the first picture was intimately scaled, the sequel has a broad scope and the filmmakers take advantage of the space afforded to them here, featuring extended fights and car chases that cover much more ground and boast even more elaborate stunt work. One of the strengths of both Raid films has been their visceral and practical qualities. Neither of the films had obvious use of computer generated imagery, contrasting them with the digital filmmaking that has characterized the superhero movies that dominate Hollywood's action films as of late. As elaborate as some of the fight choreography may be, the Raid films maintain a level of credulity that keeps them engaging. The filmmakers do not defy gravity the way some martial arts pictures do and in the course of the fights everyone gets hurt, coming out of each battle with new scars. In both films, but especially in the sequel, the filmmakers indulge the sleaziness of the underworld and that gives the films an added feel of authenticity. In The Raid 2 those sleazy environments contrast with the sterile domestic spaces that the crimes lords inhabit and these scenes give the sequel a chance for better character work than the first film. The scenes between the patriarch of the crime family (Tio Pakusodewo) and his son (Arifin Putra) are some of the best dramatic moments of the picture.
What Doesn't: The Raid 2 is an ambitious movie but it falls short of its intentions. The first Raid was in many ways akin to the original Die Hard and that comparison was complimentary. The sequel is reminiscent of The Departed (which was a remake of Infernal Affairs) but in this case the comparison is not as flattering. As a story of an undercover cop, organized crime, and police corruption, The Raid 2 creates certain exceptions in regard to its story that it does not fulfill. The premise of the movie is that Rama must go undercover in order to protect himself and his family from reprisals by rooting out crooked cops but the movie never really accomplishes that and the whole impetus for the film gets lost along the way. Part of what worked so well for the original Raid was its immediacy. The surviving SWAT team members were trapped in a tight physical space and had to fight in order to survive. The characters of the sequel do not have that kind of obvious motivation and the momentum of the story gradually deteriorates; when the picture gets to its finale it is unclear what the characters are fighting for. The Raid 2 also suffers from being too long. The film runs two and a half hours and it feels that length. When the action comes it is fast and furious but the film lags in the downtime between set pieces. The story of The Raid 2 is complicated and the filmmakers don't handle the complexity very well. Rama never really finds any crooked cops to rat out and the other major plotline of the movie involves an up and coming gangster seducing the son of a powerful rival and manipulating him into inciting a gang war. This storyline does not give Rama much to do and the plot is convoluted.
Bottom Line: When The Raid 2 is in action mode it really works and this film has some extraordinary set pieces. But the movie is also unnecessarily baggy and the plotting is messy. The sequel isn't the instant classic that the original Raid was but it is sufficiently entertaining despite its flaws.

Minister for State for the Promotion of Health, Catherine Byrne, launched the Healthy Tipperary strategy in Thurles yesterday afternoon.
The three year project aims to provide a framework for the delivery of a healthier Tipperary by the year 2020. It will see the local authority working in conjunction with the HSE and several health related agencies with the intention of improving health services across the Premier.
One strategy is the Bedtime Storytime bag, bringing books into the homes of pre-schoolers across the County. Tipperary Library Service and Tipperary County Childcare Committee have come together to promote storytime, reading and books to young families. Library Membership is FREE for everyone and we would love to see as many families benefit from the gift of books and reading. To help encourage the habit of bedtime stories, a number of Childcare Centres has been provided with a bundle of 'bedtime storytime bags' for families to borrow. Families can borrow a bag for 1 or 2 weeks and then exchange it for a new one every week. Each bag contains a Bedtime Storytime Bear, a mixture of story books and fact books and Information and Tips for parents about reading and storytime at home. This is a Free service kindly co-funded by our partners: CYSPC, Healthy Ireland, LCDC, Pobal, Tipperary Library Service and Tipperary Childcare Committee.

Shocking: Hamirpur Police allegedly plants Charas (cannabis) in shop to frame fake NDPS case
Hamirpur- Image and trust of people in Himachal Pradesh Police Department is at stake after people busted policeman allegedly planting 'Charas' (cannabis) in a vegetable shop in district Hamirpur during a raid, and then attempting to frame a fake case under Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act(NDPS) against the owner. However, this alleged, grave attempt of police was exposed after eyewitnesses came ahead and confirmed watching one of the policeman planting the packet in vegetables rack, which later it claimed to have recovered from the shop. Angry mob surrounded the police team and blocked the road for about three hours, and opened it only after higher officials arrived at the scene and assured fair inquiry into the matter.
Photo: Punjab Kesari
Reportedly, Rakesh Kumar, a resident of Birdi- Baloh in Hamirpur district of Himachal Pradesh, runs a meat and vegetable shop from past many years. His wife also assists him and take care of vegetable shop. On Wednesday afternoon, a team comprising of half a dozen policemen headed by ASI Bhoranj Police Station Avtar Singh raided the meat and vegetable shop. The team searched both shops but did not find anything, said reports. Meanwhile, one of the policemen allegedly planted a small packet in vegetables rack, and then claimed to have found it hidden there. However, the Up-Pradhan(उपप्रधान) of the local panchayat, Rakesh Singh, who was asked by the police to accompany the team during the raid, saw the entire incident.
Reportedly, the police team at once pounced on the shopkeeper, started beating him, and tried to detain him. However, eyewitnesses including the Up-Pradhan resisted this attempt of police. Angry people gathered and blocked the road to save the shopkeeper whom they claimed innocent.
Considering the growing mob of angry locals, the SDM Bhoranj SK Parashar, Tehsildar Sanjay Kumar, DSP Ashok Verma, and SHO Mukesh arrived at the scene. The mob opened the road only after the SDM assured of inquiry into the matter. The statements of main eyewitness, Up-Pradhan, and others have been recorded, informed the SDM.
The people and panchayat representatives demanded that the inquiry into this matter should not be conducted by Bhoranj Police.
DSP Ashok also assured people of a departmental inquiry against the accused ASI.
Stunned locals including panchayat members, expressing their concern, said that the police had almost framed and destroyed life of an innocent person if it were not for the eyewitnesses.
Statement of Up-Pradhan (Eyewitness)
Up-Pradhan of local Keherwin panchayat said he was asked by police to accompany him in a raid on the mentioned shop. When the police didn't find anything, the police allegedly said "Aaj Case to Banta Hai". Meanwhile one of the policemen quietly placed a small packet under vegetables. Then the ASI pretended to have recovered it from the shop and started beating the shopkeeper and tried to put him into police vehicle, he stated.
However, on hearing the brawl other shopkeepers along with locals surrounded the police team and blocked the road until higher officials arrived at the scene and assured inquiry and action against culprits, if proved guilty.

Pembrokeshire Murders fans disturbed by Keith Allen's John Cooper portrayal
The third and final part of ITV's The Pembrokeshire Murders broadcasted on Wednesday as viewers watched Keith Allen's terrifying portrayal of serial killer John Cooper for the final time.
The drama was about the true story of serial killer John Cooper, who was convicted and sentenced for killing siblings Richard and Helen Thomas in 1985, and Peter and Gwenda Dixon in 1989.
In the final episode, Cooper was found guilty of his gruesome crimes and given a life sentence.
In the chilling scenes, the furious murderer was dragged out of court repeatedly shouting: "I am not a rapist! I am not a murderer."
Viewers were left horrified as they watched Keith's terrific performance as the series came to an end.
They took to Twitter, as one wrote: "Keith Allen is horrifyingly good, isn't he?"
While another wrote: "Got to say. Not gonna be wanting to meet Keith Allen anytime soon. Like. Anytime. Soon."
"What a powerful ending to Pembrokeshire Murders and a great performance by Keith Allen who is chilling and creepy in equal measure", penned a third.
During the gripping final episode, Detective Superintendent Steve Wilkins (played by Luke Evans) finally found the evidence he needed to arrest Cooper.
They discovered the victims blood on a pair of Cooper's khaki shorts which he previously said belonged to him.
Cooper had a long history of crime, including 30 robberies and violent assault.

The ego of an individual with an active addiction is exaggerated. The exaggeration comes from a learned behavior that is directly associated to the addicted individual's psychological need to suppress chronic and unmanageable stress combined with physiological cravings for addictive substances. In a relatively short period of time, the addict quickly realizes that he/she must act independently of others in order to secure survival in their lifestyle. The addict realizes that he/she is the most important person in their world, and that he/she is the only person that matters to the people around them. The addict expects all those around them to indulge their every need or the addict will cut them off. This distorted way of thinking causes a cycle of narcissistic behaviors reinforced by the drug and alcohol use.
In recovery, the individual learns that it is an absolute necessity to rely on other people for assistance in arresting the disease of addiction. At first, asking for and accepting appropriate help is nearly impossible for the individual in early recovery. Over time, the individual begins to realize that he/she is not the only person they can rely upon, and a sense of humility begins to appear. With a newly found humble approach to surviving in a lifestyle of recovery, the recovering person is able to shift their understanding to allow for the possibility that they are not the important people they once thought they were. This form of humility is critical to their recovery effort. However, this type of humility does not come easily.
As mentioned earlier, the addict who is active in their addiction has created a habitual thought process that they are the most important person in their own lives and in everyone else's lives as well. With recovery comes the realization that they must change their thinking. When the individual begins to understand that they are not the most important person in everyone else's lives, they must deal with the loss of that status. People in early recovery must go through a grieving process, not only for the drugs and alcohol that they have lost, but also for the image of themselves as an important person. Suddenly the recovering person feels as if they are of no consequence, have no purpose, and are lost as a human being.
There is one very important distinction for the person in early recovery to make: he/she must realize that they remain important, and that their importance has shifted from the external to the internal. The recovering person must create an understanding that they remain the most important person around: to themselves. Without themselves, the recovering person will not be able to maintain sobriety, do the work necessary to cope with life's stresses, build relationships with others that will support them in recovery, understand that there is much more to their universe than they have ever perceived, and make the necessary prudent choices to live a fulfilling lifestyle of long-term recovery.
The importance that a recovering person has is infinite when it comes to self-care, self-efficacy and self-awareness. Without the self, the recovering person would not be able to achieve long-term recovery. Furthermore, in taking care of himself/herself, the recovering person is more likely to have others in their lives that choose to bond with and love them. Because personal behaviors begin with the individual, there can be no more important person to the recovering person than himself/herself.
There is another realization that comes from an understanding that one's sense of importance to the external world is greatly diminished: a concept of a higher power is created. Because the recovering person has admitted that they are not the most important thing in other people's lives, they must come to terms with how they fit into their life as a whole. Questions arise such as, what is my purpose, how can I contribute to life, and is there a place for me in this world? These questions are most effectively answered with a realization that there is a higher power than the individual in recovery. Once the development of a higher power concept is in place, then the recovering person can be a part of something bigger. He/she can be comfortable having a role to play within the grand scheme of things. No longer does the recovering person need to feel as if they are responsible for everything, and they are able to turn things over to the care of their higher power.
Self-importance never goes away, it merely changes with the phase of life one is in. If it is possible to be all-important and insignificant at the same time; that may be how many in recovery rightly feel about themselves.

She also looks after her mother, Phil (Celia Imrie), an English expat with questionable faculties who lives across the street. Whether she's earning a living, navigating her daughters' changing lives, or trying to have one of her own, Sam approaches every challenge with fierce love, raw honesty and humor.
In conjunction with Better Things' Season 5 pickup in July 2020, Adlon also signed a new overall deal with the studio behind the award-winning series, FX Productions, and she has been developing new scripted and unscripted programming for FX as well as potentially other divisions of Walt Disney Television.
The semi-autobiographical Better Things won a 2016 Peabody Award and landed on a number of lists as one of the best television shows of the decade. For her role, Adlon received a 2017 and 2018 Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series, a 2018 Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress in a Television Series Musical or Comedy. The series also has earned a WGA Award nomination and five TCA Award nominations.
Adlon has spoken out often on social issues. The multi-hyphenated, who has directed every episode of Better Things since the start of Season 2, was among the first celebrities to express solidarity with crews as their union, IATSE, prepares for a potential strike as they seek better working condition.
A joyful post regarding IATSE and solidarity. We took no time off to make this. We were shooting/prepping/locked & loaded. Shot a full gorgeous day. Crew call 7am. And still home before dusk.@iatse #iasolidarity #iastories #fuckfraturdays pic.twitter.com/MADGJpobfN

Q: Returning Multiple Row with Exact Same Values for HR1-24 Repeated the number of HR Values it should have So I am trying to link derive the values for HR1-HR25 for each entity_name_tx. The values should be grouped based off:

*

*The Date/Day

*The Response_Type

*Posting_Type.

Below is the code I have thus far:
select

I'm trying to get just one row for this one particular HR1 value but it seems to be populating every column/row with this value. (I'm thinking that perhaps my joins are incorrect)? Please let me know what other information I can provide.
thanks in advance!


Thank you to Tanita Davis for bringing a time management post at Cynsations to my attention. I would have found it myself, but probably not for another month or so. Reading blogs regularly is something I've given up in order to find some time for family paperwork and life tasks.
Today at Cynsations author Mette Ivie Harrison has a guest post up on How to Find Time to Write. Harrison has written six novels while raising five kids and running an Ironman triathlon each year. She offers a number of lists of suggestions for managing time.
Early in her post she says: "If you want to add writing (or more writing) to your current schedule, the first simple principle is that you will have to make room by taking something else out." What interested me the most is what she lists as things that can be "taken out"--TV, movies, shopping, lunch with friends, and volunteer work.
What she's talking about is busyness. Busyness is one of the few places where I think someone can truly "find" time. Cutting out the busyness to get to that time is rough, though. Harrison says, "No one is going to make writing time for you. You will have to wrest it away from other commitments, and it will not be painless." Busyness provides a lot of our connections with people. Eliminating any of it is going to have an impact on your life.
Not everyone who writes has to do this. Jane Yolen, for one, can work and be busy, too. And by no means is a desire to remain "busy" an indication that someone struggling with time doesn't have a commitment to writing. I'm just saying that busyness is a "place" you can look for time. It sounds as if Mette Ivie Harrison agrees with me.
