"The economists are the enemies!" was a tongue-in-cheek remark of one of the leading planning scholars during the 2015 AESOP General Assembly in Prague. However, did planning make progress against the old dichotomy between market and government, between itself, private enterprises, and civil society, or how much reservation towards private actors remains?
Planning as a discipline was conceptualised in times of strong government. In most European market economies, planning was considered a justified state-led intervention to foster the public good. It was needed due to market deficiencies to protect people's health, the environment and the rights of socially disadvantaged groups (Klosterman 1985: 6–10). Planning education has always focussed on instruments available to public authorities for the purpose of resolving current and future challenges (Gilliard & Thierstein 2016: 42). Planners became first technical and administrative staff and later public leaders of steering the development of the built environment (Rooij & Frank 2016: 473).
Planning education at universities organised within AESOP is largely based upon the dominant role of the public as provider of 'good' spatial development. Despite national differences in education, a curricular analysis shows that planning education of 'AESOP universities' share a stable core of knowledge and skills around planning instruments and policies and a similar scope of topics from other disciplines (Gilliard 2018, forthcoming). The European planning community recognises that planning is an interdisciplinary field (Kunzmann & Koll-Schretzenmayr 2015: 17). Whereas in some countries, planning has been introduced as independent study programmes, it is regarded as a specialisation of more established disciplines in others – most prominently as parts of architecture and geography schools (Frank et al. 2014: 84). However, "aside from the independent planning degree programs, a plethora of new non-consecutive master's programs" (Frank & Kurth 2010: 30) have been established in recent years such as urban studies, urban economics or urban management.
Universities react to changing conditions of urban development. Among other reasons, established statutory instruments have become less effective in steering urban development due to a shift of power and resources from public towards private stakeholders (Albrechts 2004: 754), e.g. in terms of funding. Since the 1990s, planning has been confronted with market-oriented urban policies and increasingly struggled to cope with (global) economic forces (Sager 2011). Planning has proven to work interdisciplinary for decades, but struggles to cope with latest spatial, social and economic challenges in an integrated manner. Governments across Europe have shaped an institutional environment in which private actors take over an increasing number of public tasks and services. Only recently has planning again become a more important activity of public authorities. However, often not as a state-driven activity against private interest, but rather as a competitor for private investments (Madanipour 2006).
The public sector still plans, but others have started to plan as well. Today, less than half of all planning graduates work in public administration (Leschinski-Stechow & Seitz 2015: 14). The multitude of actors in urban development renders statutory planning only one player on a field of many. Development is co-created. Strategies, plans and policies of different actors co-evolve. However, interviews with employers in the private sector indicate that many planning graduates are ill-prepared for practice under these conditions (Kunzmann 2017).
If planning education still keeps its established focus (Gilliard 2018, forthcoming), questions emerge: Can planning education keep up its ambition to prepare planners as experts for the development as a whole in a setting of a reinvigorated role of the public service? Do we need to reform planning education and shift its focus from public needs to competencies for a new economically driven environment? Alternatively, do other disciplines need to complement planning within a wider framework of programmes for urban development?
We propose that planning will have different roles in an environment of co-creation between public administration, private economic actors and civil society. Planning education that focuses on public authorities and statutory instruments will remain relevant. Other forms of (planning) education focussing on competencies for developers, infrastructure providers, environmental agencies, civil society initiatives, to name just a few, will complement current degrees and have partly already emerged. However, the different perspectives will not necessarily converge. Shared responsibilities and the act of co-creation will require training in working across boundaries and in continuously reflecting and adjusting.
The professional body of planners has become institutionalised by manifold interest organisations, for instance the Town and Country Planning Association, the Academy of Urbanism, or the Urban Design Group in the UK. In academia, AESOP will need to decide whether its ambition that the "ultimate goal is to ensure sustainable development of society and environment" (AESOP Core Curriculum) can still be achieved as a group of universities more narrowly focussed on educating planners for public authorities. While full membership is currently determined by the more narrowly focussed understanding of planning, the scope of participants and debates during AESOP events is more inclusive. How can AESOP find a good balance between a focus on traditional planning education and the integration of the emerging interest in cities and space by other disciplines? Who is a planner and who plans is increasingly blurred in this setting. Does interdisciplinary planning education then still need separated interdisciplinary planning schools? Should AESOP become an umbrella integrating emerging educational approaches for various actors or represent the particular interest of universities focused on public planning? What are the consequence of either of these decisions?
751 - Learning through conversing. Results and next steps of the AESOP YA Conversations in Planning - Booklet Series.
The production of knowledge through the interactions between young and senior planners (interviews, debates and reflections) allows a specific contamination, meshing experiences and autobiographies (e.g. see Haselsberger, B. Ed., 2017. Encounters in Planning Thought: 16 Autobiographical Essays from Key Thinkers in Spatial Planning. Taylor & Francis). The process of dialoguing with senior planners is an opportunity for the young ones as they can benefit of direct exchange. Specifically, it adds value when young academics attempt to trace the thinking process of senior academics who developed theories many decades ago, and in a different economic, social and political context. This dialectic is beneficial for deepening the complexity of arguments and challenges that planning faces. Moreover, it is widely acknowledged that the planning discipline is evolving through an interdisciplinary contamination. As a matter of fact, it is necessary to deepen theoretical connections amongst disciplines in order to have a more complete picture of the current direction that the planning one is taking.
In this framework, the aim of this roundtable is summarizing the experiences related with the project of the AESOP YA Conversation in Planning - Booklet Series, focusing on results, lessons learned, exploring potential future contents and tracing next steps.
Along the years, the AESOP Young Academic network has been developing a collaborative bottom-up project that has been shaped as an opportunity for learning through the direct experience of co-authoring and co-editing series of booklets centered on contemporary issues for planning. The idea of Conversations in Planning - Booklet series emerged in 2012. The project initiated in the light of strengthening the bond between AESOP and YA, and in specific, to provide an opportunity to the YA community, who is the future AESOP, in terms of knowledge transfer.
Both senior AESOP members and YA authors, who have worked on the project throughout the years, stated how this has been a great learning opportunity. The experience of being an author/editor for the booklet is a way to learn and improve peer-to-peer academic writing/editing. It is a learning-by-doing activity, in order to acquire one of the fundamental skills that a YA has to develop. The approach to work is aimed at generating a cooperative effort between editors and authors in order to rise the quality of the final outcome. As a matter of fact, this project is based on the value of cooperation, and this is reflected in the way editors and authors try to do their job. However, the level of interaction between editors and authors varied depending on booklets, as some authors preferred to do the job more independently. Since the final content of the booklet is approved by the senior scholars, this has been acceptable.
Up to 2018, the project has been structured with three series for a specific epistemological reason. Series A has discussed the influence of other philosophical theories in planning as a discipline. Series B has discussed senior planners' academic contribution towards the planning theory and hence evolution of planning as a discipline. Series C has emphasized on the particularity of planning practice, connecting theory and practice (being planning a practice-oriented discipline), with a focus on institutional design. Being an adaptive project, this structure may evolve in a different configuration.
The Series editors previously organised a roundtable at the 2015 AESOP congress. The idea of proposing the 2018 Learning through conversing roundtable rises in order to reflect upon the results - 4 booklets have been published so far and 6 more are in their last stage of editing - as well as to discuss potential contents for future issues.
The roundtable is going to be organised as it follows. After a brief introduction from the editorial board and the YA coordination team, a debate will be animated. Invited speakers - who are mostly co-authors - will be invited to share their experience. The participants - mostly expected from the AESOP Young Academic network - will be invited to share their comments, ideas for further editions and so far. Achievements, pitfalls and proposals will be discussed. The main idea is to allow a space of dialogue for keeping nurturing this bottom-up cooperative project.
We also propose to clearly identify a protocol related with the phase of selection, editing, publishing, assessing, in order to set up a beneficial bottom-up learning process for the entire AESOP young academic community. We argue how this resilient, voluntary and cooperative effort may contribute to building the overall attitude of hope that inspires this the 2018 AESOP Annual conference.


I thought I would send a note telling you about my experience so far with Operation Endangered Species and the impact it has had in my classroom. What a learning experience it has been for me and the students at Lincoln School.
I teach Title 1 reading at Lincoln School. Over half our population qualifies for free and reduced lunch and this number is growing every year. A lot of our students never leave Pontiac. These students never go outside the city limits for shopping, dinner, or vacations. Traditionally, Title 1 students score below the 25th percentile in reading. As the students progress thru the grade levels, reading is required for a majority of subject areas. We often see math, science and social studies skills impacted by the reading deficits. A lot of my students struggle academically. Operation Endangered Species has given by students something the other students do not have. It is almost like a "bragging right" to be able to be involved with the turtles at Lincoln School.
Many of my students struggle relating concepts to previous experiences – they just don't have a lot of prior knowledge. For example, the difference in farm and zoo animals and their size is hard for students to comprehend. They have never been on a farm or to the zoo. I believe this is why it was difficult at first for them to comprehend that these are not the turtles we have in Pontiac. They don't see the species – a turtle, is a turtle, is a turtle. Previous knowledge from cartoons has also had an impact on student knowledge. The students believed (and some still do) that the turtles can pull themselves into the shell and "hide" and when their shells become too small, they will "go and get another one". Due to budget cuts at the federal, state and local level, field trips do not occur in our district. Operation Endangered Species has allowed me to bring an experience to the students inside the classroom.
I am also seeing a difference between the comprehension of second and third graders. The second graders have a difficult time understanding that the two turtles are not going to lay eggs and have babies by the end of the year. The third grade students understand that the AST are asexual at this point and will mature sexually in the future.
The difference between fresh water and salt water and the locations of these bodies of water were also difficult concepts for my third grade students to comprehend. Having never been to the ocean, this is difficult to comprehend.
The students really enjoy looking to see where the turtles are in the tanks in during the day. They have noticed the pattern as to where they are usually found – Abe by the tree stump and MT in the corner. However, the corner by the filter is the "choice" location in the tank and both will try to be in that spot. They also enjoy the goldfish in the separate tank – of my 55 students, one has a fish tank in the home.
When we first began this adventure I really worried that there would be tears when the students found the goldfish were eaten by the turtles. This has not been the case at all. I have a group of third grade boys who like to name the goldfish, have them put in the turtle tank and come in the next day to see if "Pirate Pete" is still there or became dinner. The first time my group of second graders witnessed one of the turtles eat a goldfish it was totally silent in the room. No one said a word until I said, "Wow. That was cool." Then one of the second grade girls said, "Put more fish in the tank. Put more fish in the tank." That has been their goal ever since – everyone wants to see a turtle eat a fish.
We have a "Turtle Cam" hooked up so people outside the classroom can view the turtles. We have staff in the district that follows the turtles daily. There are also students who go home, log on and share with their parents. I have one student whose parents do not live together. When he goes to see his mom, he always makes sure that the Turtle Cam is working so he can log on and share with his mother. Some parents are not able or comfortable to come to school, but the Turtle Cam allows students to share classroom experiences.
I think we finally have the food situation under control. By moving to a 20 gallon tank, purchasing 20 goldfish a week, and using the smaller fish, I have been able to keep the fish alive long enough for the turtles to eat. I have noticed that the turtles are not putting weight on as quickly since moving to the smaller goldfish. What I think I will do is still purchase 20 of the smaller goldfish and 6 of the larger. I can put 4 in my tank for my two turtles and two in the tank upstairs. This has been the most challenging part. We have a student in the building with severe allergies. Many of her allergies are airborn and it is still unknown what can cause her to have a reaction. The week we had the bait fish was the week she had a reaction at school. Since switching back to goldfish, we have not had any other issues. This is something that needs to be monitored.
The third graders have completed their Power Point presentations. I have two sections of third grade and each section has designed their own slide show. Due to budge cuts, Power Point is only on staff computers. The students determined main topics that needed to be presented: description, habitat, diet, reproduction, why they are endangered, our tank, and the turtles at Lincoln School. We used articles from the internet (which lead to the discussion on reliable references) to find our information and make "Turtle Binders". We completed webs on each topic and then used those to develop the Power Point. Each student chose an area to become an "expert" and we spent a week practicing. After we have completed state testing, they will be presenting to the other classes in the building and then to their parents during conferences. These presentations are giving my students the opportunity to share their knowledge and practice speaking in front of others. Our next step is to get on the School Board agenda to present at a board meeting.
The PTHS students have been a blessing. They have come to Lincoln to clean tanks, deliver turtles, deliver fish and answer questions. On our trip to get the turtles in Peoria, the high school students answered the student's questions and spent a lot of time taking turtles. The elementary students love to be involved with the high school kids. Over Spring Break they are going to clean all three tanks. When the turtles first arrived, I was constantly asking them questions. They have been patient and so helpful. My students know who Alyssa and Michaela are and point them out on the banner whenever others come in to visit. The collaboration between #90 and #429 has been wonderful. I will be inviting the PTHS students to come and hear the 3rd graders present.
– Experiment with food – they are going to get romaine lettuce this week like they did at the Peoria Zoo. Also gave them banana and they ate it.
This has truly been a learning experience for myself and the students at Lincoln School. I admit, when they practice their presentations, I tear up….such a great thing to see. I can't wait for you to meet "T". He is my lowest reader and absolutely loves Operation Endangered Species. He remembers so much about the turtles and can answer questions. He has taught his siblings at home about the turtles and logs into the Turtle Cam. It is so good for his self image to be one of the most knowledgeable students at #429 about AST. He is already asking to be put in Mrs. Green's class next year at Washington since she houses the AST in that building. I truly believe this is why we do what we do – to reach those who need us the most.
To engineer innovative education techniques through the use of pioneering interdisciplinary curriculum designed to empower students to write in a wide variety of new and familiar genres, to collaborate with a spectrum of students and professionals in multiple contexts, and to foster the eco-conscious objective of restoring an endangered species to a breeding population in its historical habitat.


My first husband, Larry, me and our two young children, around ages four and nine, were scheduled to fly to Santa Fé, New Mexico for a vacation. We had a connecting flight from New York City to St. Louis, Missouri.
We got to the airport in the early evening and something was wrong with the incoming plane. So our flight to St. Louis had to be canceled. We were put on the next available flight with a connection possible to St. Louis. It was the following morning at an ungodly hour. We decided to take the kids home to get some sleep before schlepping back to the airport before dawn the next day. We were already off to a rocky start.
We got to the airport on time, but our flight was delayed – just enough to make us miss our connection through St. Louis. We got to St. Louis and tried to find another flight to Santa Fé. Apparently this weekend's Hot Air Balloon Festival was the biggest event of the year in Santa Fé. Every flight was booked. We finally found a flight on another airline — NINE HOURS LATER — around 6:00 PM.
That left us with had nine hours to kill plus two small children and all of our carry-on bags, which when traveling with kids, was a lot.
We decided to do some sightseeing. We took the kids to the famous arch. Walked around. Shopped. We still ended up spending too many long, boring hours in the airport.
Our flight finally boarded and naturally, it was overbooked. The flight attendant offered a free ticket to anyone who volunteered to take the next flight in two and a half hours. My crazy husband raised his hand and volunteered the whole family! He figured that we'd waited this long, we should at least get something out of the lost day!
This part actually worked out well. We had time for a leisurely dinner before we boarded the next flight. The rest of the trip was fun and included a hot air balloon ride.
However, getting there was not half the fun!
Well it seems to work out well in the end, Ellin. We did a fair bit of travelling with our children. It wasn't easy.
Traveling with kids is hard to begin with. But when you add in airport snafus and transportation problems, it can be a nightmare.
It's a LOT worse now. I think romantic air flights were always for the first class passengers, never for we ordinary citizens.
We've had the same experience. Memorable not in a nice way.
This was only one of many, many airport nightmares. Once we were on a trip through an agency and they screwed up our return flight. We had a ridiculously long flight home starting at 4 AM and ending in a different airport from where we had left our car! And this was with both kids! And ski equipment!
I'm not sure how much traveling with kids I would do now. Everything is harder now. Airports, ground transportation, etc.

Johannes Veit Reichelsdorffer was born in Reichelsdorf, Bayern, Germany, He married Cadarina (___). He is recorded as having owned land and paid quit-rents, prior to 1734, in Hanover Township, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania; he had at the time 100 acres of land.
Frederick Reichelderfer and his brother, Henry Reichelsdofer, settled in Albany Township, Berks County, Pennsylvania about 1740, or prior to that date.
On the 14th of February, 1756, the Indians came to the house of Frederick Reichelderfer, shot two of his children, set his house and barn on fire, and burnt up all his grain and cattle. Thence they proceeded to the house of Jacob Gerhart, where they killed one man, two women, and six children. "Two children slipped under the bed, one of which was burned; the other escaped, and ran a mile to get to the people." When the intelligence of this murder had reached Maxatany, many of the Inhabitants of that township repaired to Albany, to see what damage had been done; while on their way they received accounts of other murders: "When," says Jacob Levan, In a letter to Mr. Seely, February 15, 1756, "I had got ready to go with my neighbors from Maxatany, to see what damage was done in Albany; three men that had seen the shocking affair came and told me that eleven were killed, eight of them burnt, and the other three found dead out of the fire. An old man was scalped, the two others, little girls, were not scalped."
I cannot omit writing about the dreadful circumstances of our township, Albany. The Indians came yesterday morning, about eight o'clock, to Frederick Reichelderfer's house, as he was feeding his horses, and two of the Indians ran upon him and followed him into a field ten or twelve perches off; but he escaped and ran towards Jacob Gerhart's house, with a design to fetch some arms. When he came near Gerhart's he heard a lamentable cry, "Lord Jesus! Lord Jesus!" which made him run back toward his own house; but before he got quite home, he saw his house and stables in flames; and heard the cattle bellowing, and thereupon ran away again. Two of his children were shot; one of them was found dead in his field, the other was found alive, and brought to Hakenbrook's house, but died three hours after. All his grain and cattle are burnt up. At Jacob Gerhart's they have killed one man, two women, and six children. Two children slipped under the bed; one of which was burned; the other escaped, and ran a mile to get to the people. We desire help, or we must leave our homes.
Fredericks will was probated November 13, 1759. He names his brother, Henry Reichelsdorfer and Andreas Hagenbuch; also, his wife, Christina, and one son, John Adam Reicheldorfer, at the same time mentioning other children.
Johannes Adam Reichelderfer, born December 26, 1741 in Albany Township, Berks County, Pennsylvania; died August 30, 1810 in Salt Creek Twp., Pickaway County, Ohio. He was the son of 2. Frederick Jacob Reichelderfer and 3. Christina. He married Anna Elizabeth Hagenbuch Abt. 1774 in Albany Township, Berks County, Pennsylvania. She was the daughter of Andreas Hagenbuch and Anna Maria Margaretta Friedler.
was born April 15, 1776 in Berks County, Pennsylvania and died August 09, 1836 in Salt Creek Twp., Pickaway County, Ohio she married Johan Jacob Spangler June 10, 1794 in Alsace Twp., Berks Co., PA.

If you've been following my Cocktail Bazaar you have probably figured out that my cocktail suggestions have been inspired by Smirnoff. Their US media team has sent me an assortment of samples of Smirnoff Vodka, Smirnoff Ice Premium Malt Beverages, the new Smirnoff Spiked Sparkling Seltzers as well as some Smirnoff Flavoured Vodkas. I was also sent a plethora of recipes to try out. From those recipes, I chose the ones which suited my skills as a home bartender to share with you.
My autumn Cocktail Bazaar continues with a look at Smirnoff Ice Green Apple. I should point out that the Smirnoff Ice brand is quite different here in Canada from what it is south of the border in the United States. That is because in Canada the brand is sold as a Premixed Vodka Beverage. However, in the US, the brand is instead a Premixed Premium Malt Beverage based not upon a distilled vodka, but rather a brewed let me say 'beer-like' product. This means that the flavour profile of Smirnoff Ice products in the US contains a ribbon of beer-like malt flavour that is absent the Canadian Smirnoff Ice branded product.
As indicated earlier, my samples were sent to me from the US-based Smirnoff Media Team. This means the recipe I am sharing will taste quite different when mixed with the Canadian version of Smirnoff Ice Green Apple. That should not dissuade however, as the recipe works well either way.
Here is a nice fall recipe which mixes Smirnoff Ice Green Apple with one of my favourite whiskeys, Bulleit Bourbon Frontier Whiskey.
Note: Smirnoff Ice Green Apple is a premium malt beverage brewed and bottled at 4.5 % abv. by Smirnoff Co.. The product contains natural flavours, and certified and natural colours.

Bekki Livingston
"Encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing." 1 Thessalonians 5:11
From her current duties as Secretary of the Louisville Bicycle Club to years of serving in leadership roles in Kentucky District and State PTA to a decade of working at Golden View Elementary School in San Ramon as the Library/Media Coordinator, not to mention leading sizeable children's ministries for her previous church in California, Bekki Livingston pours her heart into everything she does.
A native of Jackson, Mississippi, Bekki is a graduate of the University of Mississippi with majors in English, Political Science, and Sociology. Before her daughter and son were born when Bekki was in her early forties, her previous jobs included VP Bank of America Private Banking in San Francisco, VP of Wachovia Bank in Winston-Salem, and Trust Office AVP at Union Bank in Baltimore.
Q: What did you want to be when you grew up?
A: When I was in third grade, I made my sisters "check out" books from my own library. That was also my last career before retiring: Children's Librarian!
Q: What moment of your life would you love to relive?
A: Our family reunion in the summer of 2009. It was the last time we were all together, just having fun. Many are no longer with us.
Q: If you could only read one book for the rest of your life (other than the Bible), what would it be, and why?
A: My daily devotional book, Streams in the Desert. It's my mother's copy with all her notes. It's an oldie, but a good one.
Q: Where do you see Women's Ministry at Christ Church in 5 years?
A: I see young women walking in the park pushing strollers, discussing their Bible Study, then afterwards joining for coffee and prayer. I see ongoing prayer meetings online for those who can't physically meet with others, and more connection among the generations represented in our church. I'm picturing women mentoring and connecting with one another through book clubs, craft gatherings, and exercise classes, and teams of women using their gifts to serve one another and our community. The walls of the church will not contain Women's Ministry—it will be everywhere and it will be contagious.

FAZ - "ZUKUNFT CHEMIE". Illustrations for the annual publication "Future Chemistry" by German newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, 2013. Various artists were asked to interpret different areas regarding the environmental and scientific challenges we face today. My specific theme was "Therapy and Medication".


"Heartbroken" is the only word that can describe our emotions after this weekend's horrifying massacre of eleven souls at the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh. For all of us who gain strength from faith in God, who build lives around religious observance in His holy sanctuary, and who draw sustenance from gathering together to sanctify life's passages, this crime was nothing less than a desecration before the eyes of man and God.
Heartbroken is the word to describe our reaction on reading the profiles of the eleven victims: all people in the later stages of life. Two brothers devoted to each other; an elderly couple; a widow; a beloved physician; a woman of 97 years; and the others who all shared a common gentleness, piety, and desire to help others. Our own faithful communities are blessed with people of the same graceful character.
Heartbroken is the emotion we as Armenian Christians share with our Jewish brothers and sisters as, not for the first time, we grieve together over the re-opening of age-old wounds, received when our respective peoples were subjected to persecution and death from those who felt hatred towards our very existence.
Heartbroken is the feeling aroused by the sight of our country's descent into a fractious, contentious public life. Against that ugly reality, we must hope and pray that people of good will can come together—at the very least—in humble, prayerful respect for the dead, and in sympathy with their grieving loved ones.
Whatever else divides Americans at this time, we should be able to affirm with one voice that those eleven gentle souls, gathered in a house of worship on their Sabbath day, surely did not deserve to have their lives ended in terror and violence. Perhaps agreement on that fundamental premise would be the first step to a more humane public discourse. Until then, we must lift our broken-hearted prayers to the risen Lord Jesus Christ, consoled in the knowledge that His heart, too, has been broken.
"Heartbroken." The word itself invokes a broken heart within me. And, we, as Christians in the Armenian Tradition, must bow our heads with our brothers and sisters of "The Book" and be in pain with them. Thank you for this article.
This was such an eloquent expression of what so many of us are feeling. Thank you.

The National Book Review/
Contributors/
5 Hot Books
October 13, 2015 / Adam Cohen
1. City on Fire by Garth Risk Hallberg (Knopf)
Weighing in at over 900 pages, with a reported advance of nearly $2 million, this debut novel raised expectations – and it largely seems to be meeting them. On the front page of the New York Times Book Review, Frank Rich praised the "the delicate and ultimately moving balancing act that Garth Risk Hallberg pulls off in . . . his Dickens-size descent into New York City circa 1976-77." Michiko Kakutani was even more effusive, calling City on Fire a "big, stunning first novel and an amazing virtual reality machine."
2. Mrs. Engels by Gavin McRae (Catapult)
This debut novel is told in the voice of Lizzie Burns, Communist Manifesto co-author Friedrich Engels's longtime lover. The illiterate Lizzie left no records so McCrea has had to imagine her into existence – which he has done impressively. Mrs. Engels, from the promising new publisher Catapult, just made The Guardian's First Book Award 2015 longlist.
3. The Last of the President's Men by Bob Woodward (Simon & Schuster)
Woodward's 18th book, which hits stores Oct. 13, is a direct descendant of All the President's Men -- his iconic first book, written with Carl Bernstein in 1974. This return to the intrigue of the Nixonian West Wing is based on more than 46 hours of interviews with Alexander Butterfield, the White House aide who revealed that Nixon was taping conversations in the Oval Office.
4. Voices from Chernobyl: The Oral History of a Nuclear Disaster by Svetlana Alexievich (Picador)
Alexievich's Nobel Prize in Literature this year was the first for a non-fiction writer in more than half a century, and only the 14th ever given to a woman. Alexievich was a journalist in Minsk, the capital of Belarus, at the time of the 1986 Chernobyl disaster. Her book, based on interviews with survivors, won the National Book Critics Circle non-fiction award in 2005, and this month the Nobel Committee hailed her for "for her polyphonic writings, a monument to suffering and courage in our time."
5. Find Me Unafraid: Love, Loss, and Hope in an African Slum by Kennedy Odede and Jessica Posner. Foreword by Nicholas Kristof. (Ecco)
Boy meets girl, with a humanitarian twist. Odede and Posner met in Nairobi's Kibera, one of Africa's largest urban slums, where he grew up and where she was a Wesleyan student (from Denver) on semester abroad. Together, they founded the slum's first tuition-free school for girls, and a school in another slum – and more than 170,000 people now benefit from their work. Along the way, they fell in love.

Q: Git warning: embeded repo I am having an issue with git. All i am trying to do is to upload react app in folder.
I am using the following:
npx create-react-app task_4_1
After that, I changed the src folder files for my purposes and tried to push to git existing folder.
The warning I get:
PS C:\Users\Robert\Desktop\New folder> git add .
warning: adding embedded git repository: task_4_1
hint: You've added another git repository inside your current repository.
hint: Clones of the outer repository will not contain the contents of
hint: the embedded repository and will not know how to obtain it.
hint:
hint:   git submodule add <url> task_4_1
hint:
hint: If you added this path by mistake, you can remove it from the
hint: index with:
hint:
hint:   git rm --cached task_4_1
hint:

If i follow git commands after all it creates in git see pic below

All I want is to have my app in a folder. As more folders are going to come here later as learning steps.
Tried to search for answers here. None of the solutions actually helped. None were same problems.
updated
I want it to be this way

so I can have 2-8 different react apps in one repo.
If I do all the commands in root folder it comes like so

and when I will continue to add new apps down there it will be a huge mess
And if I delete .git File from root that will mean that all node_modules will be uploaded to git as well, Don't we try to avoid that ?

A: You accidentally create two git files. Just make the structure as the default create-react-app, then in the root folder execute git init.

Daddy's Groove & Promise Land - Scratchin
Daddy's Groove and Promise Land deliver a disco tinged groove combined with a raw piece of house music with their new track 'Scratchin'. Big drum fills and additional bass lines, as well as a cool vocal breakdown, create the ultimate club vibe.
Hailing from Naples, Italy, it's been an impressive trail to international fame for Carlo Grieco and Peppe Folliero, who together form Daddy's Groove. Since day one their productions were picked up by major artists, followed by endlessly touring the globe, getting their records released on labels like Spinnin' Records, Ultra, Dim Mak, Axtone and Size, while remixing artists like Kylie Minogue, Whitney Houston, James Blunt and Enrique Iglesias. By now Daddy's Groove is renowned on both sides of the musical spectrum, known for its blend of catchy pop and energetic dance music like 'Stellar', 'Surrender', 'WOW!', 'Back To 94' and 'Tribe'.
Daddy's Groove now join forces with fellow Italian duo Promise Land, who are Nazario Pelusi and Fabio Ranucci from Rome. "It's always great fun making music with talented producers like Promise Land, you always get involved in something magic, also due to our longtime friendship!", explains Daddy's Groove.
Promise Land boast many quality productions, with great success on the radio. They have been key players in the Italian radio scene with more than 40 productions in 10 years' time, with half of it published worldwide. In the last couple of years their musical creativity has overcome the European scene to gain success in the American market. Their talent is based on a sound sexy-house mixed with groove progressive, that reached the attention of names like Tiesto, Angello, Axwell and Morillo, just to name a view. Releases on Subliminal records, Spinnin' records, Flamingo and Size have granted a rating of high level in the world's ranking. One of their biggest success is the remix for Swedish House Mafia 'Don't you worry child', loved by their fans all over the world.
Promise Land says: "Working on this tune with Daddy's Groove has been such an exciting experience as we are close friends and that studio session had kind of magic due to overall feeling among the four of us. 'Skratchin' is such as a "solid stone" in our music career. Really glad to share it with them. I hope the fans enjoy it!"

Headings are an important part of any document, not only because they make a page easier to read but also because they split a page up into sections with varying degrees of importance. Think about when you read a newspaper, the bigger the headline, the more important the story is!
In HTML there are six different heading styles. Heading 1 is the most important, and heading 6 is the least important. In general, we tend only to use headings 1, 2 and 3 as most documents have little need for the other subsections. The diagram to the left shows a example of the six heading styles.
The example below shows how the diagram was produced. Note that there are no line breaks specified in the code; headings start on a new line automatically.
As with most elements, the appearance of the heading styles can change depending on your Stylesheet. You can change the color, size and font of the heading with your CSS.
In the next tutorial we will discuss the different types of image that you can use on your webpages, and how your choice of image format can have serious effects on the quality and size of your pages.

Clarinet Concerto
for clarinet and orchestra
Duration: 18'
harp-pft-strings
Abbreviations (PDF)
This work is available from Boosey & Hawkes for the world.
Programme Note
The renowned jazz clarinetist Benny Goodman asked Copland to compose a work for him. The result was a two-movement concerto: the first section is one of Copland's most lyrical and melodious creations; the second is in an all-out jazzy style replete with a glissando or jazz "smear" at the end. The movements are connected by a cadenza for the soloist. Benny Goodman said in an interview, "I always felt good about that commission and about playing the Concerto with Aaron conducting." Since then, many of the foremost clarinetists worldwide have performed the piece.

A WAC-Platz az 1896-ban alapított Wiener Athletiksport Club (WAC) labdarúgó pályája, stadionja.

Története
A WAC-Platz a bécsi Prater stadion melletti jezsuita réten létesült a legrégebbi focipálya. A jezsuita réten egy füves focipálya, 8 füves teniszpálya, futópálya és a kerékpárút volt található, valamint egy favázas, villa-stílusú klubház a sportolók kiszolgálására.

A focipályán rendezték 1901-1903 között az első osztrák bajnoki mérkőzéseket, a Kupák találkozóit, döntőit.

A 20. század elejétől 1920-as évekig az európai kontinens legnagyobb labdarúgó sportpályája volt. 1902. október 12-én mintegy 500 néző előtt játszották az első Ausztria–Magyarország 5 - 0  válogatott mérkőzést, ami egyben az osztrák válogatott első hivatalos találkozója volt. A pálya nézőterét folyamatosan bővítették, 1918. június 2-án már néző előtt csapott össze a két válogatott. 1920-ig 16 nemzetek közötti válogatott mérkőzésből 14 alkalommal Magyarország volt az ellenfél. 1920-ban megépülő Nemzeti Stadion lett a válogatott mérkőzések helyszíne. Az osztrák labdarúgó válogatott évekig edzőpályaként használta. Napjainkban a területet az enyészeté, szabadidős tevékenységre használják.

The fourth and final entry in the cycle of stories that began with The Giver opens in the same time and place as that novel but focuses on a girl named Claire—birthmother to baby Gabe. She is reassigned to the fishery after giving birth to the "Product," but in an oversight is not given the drugs that everyone takes from adolescence on to stop them from feeling attachment. Claire loves this child she cannot claim, and when she learns Jonas has taken her baby and escaped, she finds a way out on a supply boat. Part 2 is set in the community where Claire washes ashore after the boat is caught in a storm. She remembers almost nothing of her past. Claire's memory comes back in a rush when she assists the healer Alys at a birth. Determined to continue the journey to find her son, Claire find the community is locked in by the sea on one side and dangerous cliffs on the other. The only person who ever tried leaving was a young man named Einar, who came back crippled. But Einar agrees to help Claire, overseeing rigorous physical and mental training to prepare her for the climb up the cliff and what she will face at the top: the Trademaster. Part 3 finds Claire living in the village of The Messenger. Gabe is a teenager there, building a boat because he wants to leave and find out about his past. Claire hasn't told Gabe who she is because she traded her youth to find him: She's an old woman, now near death. Jonas doesn't know who Claire is either, but he does sense that Gabe possesses a special ability, and when the Trademaster appears outside town, he knows Gabe is the one destined to confront him if everything they have worked so hard to build—a community of trust and respect—is to be saved. Lois Lowry affirms the power of love and of peaceful resistance as she brings her quartet to a satisfying and inspiring close. ©2012 Cooperative Children's Book Center

Government shutdown: Will chaos reign?
Last time, the shift to skeletal crew was disorganized and illogical
By Matthew Weigelt
Departments' plans for managing a government shutdown may not get the examination needed to prevent agencies from experiencing a disorganized downshift to a skeletal crew, according to a new report.
The Congressional Research Service reported that more expert analysis of the plans, which are required by the Office of Management and Budget, would encourage federal officials to make better arrangements.
"Scrutiny over agency shutdown plans may provide incentives for agencies to improve the quality of the plans, should it become necessary at some point for agencies to execute the plans," the CRS wrote in the report released Feb. 18.
After a government shutdown in the 1990s, congressional hearings found that the shift to a skeletal crew of essential employees "was, in many instances, disorganized and illogical at best, and oftentimes chaotic," the report states. CRS was quoting Rep. John Mica (R-Fla.), the then-chairman of the House Government Reform and Oversight Committee's Civil Service Subcommittee, during a hearing about the shutdown and the implications for future instances.

Government shutdown looms as lawmakers debate funding bill
The CRS also wrote that exposing the shutdown response plans to scrutiny would inform the budget policy debate about the potential effects of closing down the government.
The plans are required by OMB Circular A-11, and they must tell OMB officials how many days it would take to complete a shutdown. As for employees, the plan compares the number of an agency's employees before launching the plan and how many would be necessary during the shutdown. Agencies must also note the number of employees needed to protect property and life, in terms of health care. Those employees would be exempt from the furlough. Employees may also be exempt if they are involved in the orderly suspension of agency operations, according to the CRS report.
Along with those select employees, the president and his appointees, members of Congress and other legislative workers are also exempted.
Rep. Jim Moran (D-Va.) introduced a bill Feb. 18 that would keep the president and members of Congress from receiving paychecks when the government is closed.
Moran said his Government Shutdown Fairness Act (H.R. 819) would put top government officials on equal footing with federal employees.
"If we're going to throw federal employees, including our staffs, out on the street, we should be right there with them," Moran said. "In the event of a shutdown, members [of Congress] should be eating peanut butter and jelly like everyone else."

Tenant Deposits
How to transfer a security deposit to a new lease
If a tenant moves from one unit to another, you can transfer the security deposit from the old lease to the new lease. If your company is currently holding the security deposits on this property, this does not require taking any steps in the real world, but instead involves initiating "dummy" transactions to represent the transfer from the old lease to the new lease.
Franklin Jones had a lease for unit 1. That lease is over and he's moving across the hall to unit 4 this weekend. His $800 security deposit needs to be transferred from his lease on unit 1 to his lease on unit 4. The $800 is currently held in the Security Deposit Bank account.
To transfer a deposit:
Navigate to Rentals > Rent roll.
Click on the original lease.
From the lease summary page, click Financials > Issue refund.
Issue a refund out of the bank account where the funds are currently located, in the total amount of the deposits being transferred.
Add a memo that shows this is an adjusting transaction and that there is no real world equivalent. For example, Internal transfer: Moved to a new lease.
Receive a payment on the new lease for that same amount.
Add a memo that shows this is an adjusting transaction and that there is no real world equivalent. For example, Internal transfer: Tim's security deposit from unit C to D.
Deposit that payment into the bank account.
Add a memo that shows this is an adjusting transaction and that there is no real world equivalent. For example, Internal transfer.
When you're done, the bank account balance should be the same as when it began. Include the refund and bank deposit in your next bank reconciliation.

Berwyn: Herbs, history and affordable homes in the shadow of U-Md.
By Nick Mourtoupalas
Where We Live | Berwyn in College Park, Md.
View PhotosView Photos
Berwyn in College Park, Md., was established around 1900. Many of the houses were purchased from the Sears catalogue and delivered by train, which was unloaded at the end of Berwyn Road. (Bill O'Leary/The Washington Post)
On a Saturday afternoon, faint sounds of passing trains faded in the distance outside the Smile Herb Shop in the College Park, Md., neighborhood of Berwyn.
The landmark, which has grown from an old house into a wellness oasis mostly through word of mouth over 40 years, sells a variety of healing concoctions, including specialty tinctures and tea blends designed for people with ailments such as anemia, arthritis and diabetes.
"The College Park area is very biodiverse," said Alec Heron, 28.
Heron, who is one of the shop's homeopathic specialists and lives down the street, was touting the native mushrooms and plants unique to Berwyn during its monthly walking tour, where neighbors are invited to explore local trails with botanical experts from the herb shop.
The White Lotus Wellness Center two doors down also partners with the herbal shop to offer physical treatments such as acupuncture and yoga.
Such businesses catering to the unique needs of the community are part of what draws new generations of residents to Berwyn.
Karyn Keating-Volke, 62, a real estate agent with Berkshire Hathaway who has lived in Berwyn since 2012, said she was introduced to the community in 2005 when she bought a house for her daughters attending the University of Maryland.
"Most of my neighbors are longtime residents — people just don't leave! My neighbor across the street is 78 and she has lived in Berwyn all her life. Another neighbor grew up in Berwyn and once he got married, they bought a house here. Many other neighbors have lived here for decades," said Keating-Volke, co-recording secretary of the Berwyn District Civic Association.
Berwyn, she said, has "very little crime in this end of College Park, unlike other areas," an added plus.
In these Vienna Woods, the tales seem to have a happy ending for residents
Monthly block party : The community was established around 1900. Many of the houses were purchased from the Sears catalogue and delivered by train, which was unloaded at the end of Berwyn Road.
"Most of the homes that are built of wood like mine — instead of brick — were prefabs offloaded from the train tracks down the street from here," said Jeff Cruz, 44, who owns a Sears-catalogue home.
Cruz described how the prefabricated units were manufactured off-site in advance, usually in uniform sections, so they could be easily shipped and assembled.
As he puffed a cigarette on his front porch, Cruz added that he takes his two sons to his former elementary school, Holy Redeemer on Berwyn Road. Holy Redeemer, a Catholic school ranging from kindergarten through eighth grade, has 250 students.
"I just came back from biking to the park with my son,'' Cruz said. He added that tennis courts, parks and bike trails leading to the nearby man-made Lake Artemesia make the community fun and accessible to explore with friends and family.
A D.C. neighborhood goes from 'kind of rugged' to 'really in demand'
One of the popular attractions in the community is Fishnet, a restaurant on Berwyn Road known for its fresh selection of fish and seafood dishes. Fishnet "offers a community block party once a month with free food, and many neighbors come out to visit with each other," Keating-Volke said.
Residents said they're looking forward to the completion of a new discount grocery store along Route 1, Lidl, which is expected to open later this year. The University of Maryland is booming with new buildings and resources on and off campus that are becoming huge draws for the college town.
Living there: The Berwyn neighborhood is bounded on the east by the CSX railroad tracks; on the west by U.S. Route 1, also known as Baltimore Avenue; on the north by Maryland Highway 193 (University Boulevard); and on the south by the subdivision lines of Lakeland. Lake Artemesia is just southeast of the neighborhood by trail.
In the past six months, nine homes have sold in Berwyn, ranging from a two-bedroom, two-bathroom 1,029-square-foot condo for $200,000 to a three-bedroom, two-bathroom 1,170-square-foot house for $350,000, Keating-Volke said.
There are three homes for sale, ranging from a three-bedroom, three-bathroom property priced at $310,000 to a five-bedroom, three-bathroom property listing for $415,000.
Keating-Volke said the real estate market in Berwyn is very competitive and homes, if priced right, get snatched up fast.
"Certain investors are quick to buy and usually we get multiple offers on homes for sale," she said.
Schools: Holy Redeemer (Catholic), Paint Branch and Berwyn Heights Elementary; Greenbelt Middle; and Parkdale High.
Transit: According to Keating-Volke, many residents work at the University of Maryland. They walk or bike to work. Others take buses to the Greenbelt or College Park Metro stations. An Uber ride to Dupont Circle will cost $6 to 12, depending on the time of day. Route 1/Baltimore Avenue is the main street.
Crime: In the past six months, there have been 11 thefts, five property crimes, one break-in and one violent robbery, according to crimereports.com .

Eugenij Anisimov notes the high level of research made by Tatiana Tairova-Yakovleva, in particular considering the pieces about Ukrainian history. He notes that the problem of treason by I. Mazepa can be interpreted more generally and the fact of treason undoubtly took place.
Alexander Besov believes that the book about Hetman Mazepa by Tatiana Tairova-Yakovleva focuses rather on teleology than history. However, he fi nds the way of the author's interpretation of the «Russia-Ukraine relations» in late 17th - early 18th centuries quite mistakable.
Alexander Kamenskii thinks that Tatiana Tairova's book is a serious attempt of constructing a scholar biography of Ivan Mazepa. In several cases she has managed to refute some myths in historiography. One may hope that the book will stimulate other historians to conduct further research. However, they will not be able to ignore Tairova's conception.
A. S. Karevin considers that Tairova-Yakovleva's book is full of numerous mistakes, contradictions and baseless conclusions. The drawbacks make us not to regard the book as established scientifi c study.
Kirill Kochegarov fi nds that Mrs. Tairova-Yakovleva's book combine several interesting observations with unacceptable and controversial points. In generally the very idea of the study seems to idealize the Mazepa personality as well as his policy. The author also overestimates the importance of the so-called Moscow clauses, grossly exaggerates Mazepa's participation in the Russian foreign affairs, and erroneously regards centralizing military administration measures of Russian government as large-scale administrative reform in Ukraine. Moreover, active role in Church reform of Peter the Great declared by Mrs. Tairova-Yakovleva Mazepa's has not been proved.
Igor Kurukin: Despite the information on administrative reform of 1707 (s.322-330) given by the author, it isn't clear, was the Ukrainian autonomy liquidated or not. There is a disputable question on what extend was Mazepa supported by the Ukraine people as well as cossack «starshina». Provinces being attached to Russia Baltic were able to remain independent for one and a half centuries. Being different by birth Ukrainian elite did't manage to develop rules of corporate behavior and solidarity.
Plokhii Serhii: The myth of Mazepa as betrayer have been solidly examined in Mrs. Tairova-Yakovleva's scientifi c and creative lab. The author has succeed in showing — and more carefully than her redecessor — the diffi culty of both personal and public, geopolitics, choice which Mazepa had to make. The book is, if it is a proper name, the most balanced judgment of the hetman I have ever read.
Chukhlib Taras. The violation of oath to the Russian monarch by Ukrainian Hetmanstate was interpreted by Ivan Mazepa and his government as tyrannical action of Peter the Great. Therefore, the hetman received the right to refuse from «the high hand» of tsar and look for another suzerain to maintain his vassal autonomy.
T. H. Tairova-Yakovleva finds this decision quite adequate and revealing us the logic of actions of the Ukrainian leader.

Towards the Panopticon: School Building and Discipline in Early Modern Russia
Fedyukin I. Humanities. HUM. Basic Research Programme, 2016
This article explores the notion of discipline in Russia since the late 17th century and up to the accession of Catherine II. Discipline and disciplining occupy a central place in our thinking about early modern state, and the reconstruction of debates about school building helps to illuminate the ways in which this notion has been articulated. The article traces the emerging concern with using the school building as an instrument of confinement and surveillance, and demonstrates unexpected links between the Noble Cadet Corps in St Petersburg and Bentham's «Panopticn» via the Ecole Militaire in Paris. It argues that the peculiarly modern understanding of discipline was rooted in specific religious sensibilities that had not been developed in seventeenth-century Orthodox thinking. Rather, it stresses the central role of Pietism and the Pietists in introducing these notions in post-Petrine Russia, as well as the ways in which these notions have been appropriated, «domesticated,» and «secularized» by a variety of Russian palters. At the end, the article reflects on the relationship between discipline, religious sensibilities, was, and the estate in a non-Western early modern context.
Westernizations" from Peter I to Meiji: War, Political Competition, and Reform
Radical "Westernizing" transformations in extra-European countries, from Peter I's Russia to Meiji Japan, are traditionally presented as a response to threats from the more militarily and technologically advanced European powers. This corresponds to the general tendency to view war as the driving force behind early modern state-building. Yet, how exactly did such transformations become possible? How were the rulers able to pursue policies that threaten large sections of their own military elites, from strel'tsy and mamluks to janissaries and samurais? And why did some of the extra-European states failed to 'Westernize" in response to external threats, while others rapidly Westernized when the threats was ephemeral, at best? This article seeks to complicate this "bellicist" narrative of Westernizing transformations by shifting the focus of analysis to the rulers' quest for political survival. It argues that when the domestic balance of power is stable, incumbent rulers tend not to embark on reform, even in the face of external military threats. Conversely, such reforms tend to occur when the domestic balance of power is disrupted to such a degree as to lead to the emergence of challengers, who launch "Westernization" as they seek to expand their power base and undermine that of their rivals. Factional political struggles accompanying such transformations are interpreted here not as a conservative reaction against reforms, but as a process that precedes and enables reforms by facilitating the creation of an alternative ruling coaliti

Finding the Consumer Center of St. Petersburg?
Kholodilin K., Крылова И. А., Kryutchenko D. Economics/EC. WP BRP. Высшая школа экономики, 2017. No. WP BRP 165/EC/2017.
In the urban economics, the distribution of people and real estate prices depends on the location of the central business district. As distance from the city center increases, both prices and population density diminish, for travel costs increase in terms of time and money. As manufacturing gradually leaves the cities, the importance of consumer amenities as attractors of population to the urban areas increases. The role of the business center is being taken over by the consumer center. This paper identifies the location of the consumer center of St. Petersburg - the second largest city in Russia and its former capital. For this purpose using data from open sources on the Internet regarding the location of different types of urban amenities, the indices of their spatial density are computed. Using weights based on coefficients of spatial variation and surveys, the individual indices are aggregated to two general centrality indices. Their unique maxima correspond to the city center of St. Petersburg, which is located on Nevsky prospekt, between Fontanka river and Liteinyi prospekt.

The emergence of the Tea Party movement in recent years has shown that under the surface of mainstream political life in the USA there exists a different layer of ideas, which cannot be satisfactorily described in terms of the Republican/Democrat dichotomy. These ideas have their origins in the foundation of the American Republic, which owes a lot to ancient and mediaeval political theory. In the twentieth century there was a revival of these ideas in the form of the so-called "paleoconservative" movements which rediscovered their ancient and mediaeval heritage. This paper focuses on one of them, the Southern Agrarian movement, as exemplary of this radical intellectual project.

Susan Lucci Takes a Tumble on the New York Fashion Week Runway — See Her Perfect Recovery!
Feb 8, 2019 5:53 pm·
By Julia Birkinbine
We're so glad you're OK, Susan Lucci! On Thursday, February 7, the 72-year-old actress walked the catwalk in the American Heart Association's Go Red for Women Red Dress Collection 2019 fashion show in New York City and sadly took a tumble on the runway. But, like a total pro, Susan didn't let the funny moment get her down and had the most graceful recovery ever as she quickly popped back up and kept walking — you go, girl!
It was about halfway down the runway that Susan's sky-high nude heels accidentally got caught in the full skirt of her gorgeous strapless red dress and the model tripped and fell. After getting back on her feet, the All My Children star smiled, laughed and mouthed a "Thank You" to the crowd as they enthusiastically cheered her on. After her solo strut down the catwalk, Susan later returned to the stage alongside Sherri Shepherd, Danica McKellar and Brooke Burke (just to name a few of the other stars!) for the event's finale.
Yesterday's American Heart Association fashion show was a particularly special event for Susan to support considering she revealed earlier this week that she's "lucky to be alive" after recently undergoing an emergency heart procedure. In a candid new interview, the small screen icon explained that she started to feel tightness in her chest but convinced herself that she was just tired. It wasn't until the pain returned and it "felt like an elephant pressing down" on her chest that Susan realized she needed to see a doctor.
After seeking medical attention, Susan learned she had 90 percent blockage in her heart's main artery along with 70 percent blockage in another branch. "I was shocked," she told People. "I'm lucky to be alive." Cardiologist Holly Andersen told the magazine that Susan could have "suffered a significant heart attack or even sudden death" if she hadn't seen a doctor when she did.

It looks absolutely wonderful my friend, some of those screenshots look especially beautiful and I love the small alleys and details etc. My only criticism would be that the skyscraper looks a little bit out of place with those small buildings, I know it's really difficult to fit it logically because it's so big!
I do not know what buildings you exactly mean, but I deleted some of them yesterday, because these buildings did not fit there. It was there just provisionally. Now I replace these big buildings with smaller. The highest buildings are still in the middle of the city as a landmark of the city.
Now I work on the square. The square is a made-to-measure. I use the Zmodeler in many cases now.
Damn, that's really good job!
Merry holidays and the New Year!
I still work on my mod... Now I focused on extending green vegetation in the city.
I worked on some details and also rebuilt some streets.
Here I deleted the buildings what I have shown you in the previous post. Now there is a flat surface, on which will be built a cinema.
I really like the greenery!
Now I work on a third mission.
In that I found some new useful scripts. And I still write the mission.
It is about that you go with your friend to the pub to get drunk and some gangsters will you (and your friend) kidnap to another part of the city, because you are already uncomfortable person for mafia business. Your friend will be died, but you will be still alive and you will have to get away through your enemies. After this I reckon that Tommy will move into the village for a while.
And this is the village. I changed some things there.
And I finished the other side of the lawn, what I showed in the previous post, now there is railing and I added a footpath there, the same one is on the railway station.
And I just now added the cinema. I used a model of a bar and retextured it.
I want to add there also my own posters of fake films, what I will devise.
And finally I want to say that I made a copy of all my work (with the city and with all models and textures) on two flashdrive, so now I do not have to worry about that my computer will burn and I will lost all my work. In this case the copies could come in handy.
By the way, to anyone who doesn't speak Czech/Slovak, the second 'mission' screen with text on reads something like: "Mr. Morello and the sheriff would like you to know they send their regards"
T3mas1, this gets better and better!
And do not worry about the localization. I plan also release the English version. I see no problem in it.
But when I work on the modification I do everything in Czech language first. It is easier for me, because it's my native language. And after I can write it in English, when I know I will not rewrite anything.

Q: Any alternatives with Global Variables? I don't want to use Global Variables in phpunit testing I'm using phpunit to create some tests and I ran into a small problem. I created a $json string outside the class and I'm using it inside the test functions in order to avoid repetitive variable declarations since there will be dozens of other tests using the same $json string.
Now I've been reading over how we shouldn't be using global variables as it can cause difficulties in maintainability in codes so I'm trying to figure out another way to run this test.
I thought about creating parameters for the function to accept but these functions are being run automatically when I run phpunit.
Here is my code:
$json = '{
                "name": "John",
                "age": "22",

             }';

    $data= json_decode($json, true);
    $name = $data['name'];
    $age = $data['age'];

 class UserTest extends TestCase {

 public function testCreateUserName(){
    global $json;
    global  $name;

    $this->call('POST', 'user', array(), array(), array(), $json);

    $this->assertFalse($this->client->getResponse()->isOk());

    $decodedOutput = json_decode($this->client->getResponse()->getContent());

    $this->assertEquals($name, $decodedOutput->name, 'Name Input was Incorrect');
    $this->assertResponseStatus(201);

}

}

My question is, what's another alternative to this?

A: Why not create your data in  the setUp() method?
Example:
class UserTest extends TestCase {

  private $data;
  private $json;
  private $name;
  private $age;

  public function setUp() {
    $this->json = '{
                "name": "John",
                "age": "22",

             }';
    $this->data = json_decode($this->json, true);
    $this->name = $this->data['name'];
    $this->age = $this->data['age'];
  }

  public function testCreateUserName(){
      $this->call('POST', 'user', array(), array(), array(), $this->json);

      $this->assertFalse($this->client->getResponse()->isOk());

      $decodedOutput = json_decode($this->client->getResponse()->getContent());

      $this->assertEquals($this->name, $decodedOutput->name, 'Name Input was Incorrect');
      $this->assertResponseStatus(201);
  }
}

See this link for more information:
http://phpunit.de/manual/4.1/en/fixtures.html

A: You should use the setUp() method that is called by PHPUnit before performing each test to initialize a class variable.
class UserTest extends TestCase
{
    protected $json;
    protected $name;
    protected $age;

    public function setUp()
    {
        $this->json = '{"name":"John","age":22}';
        $data = json_decode($this->json);
        $this->name = $data['name'];
        $this->age = $data['age'];
    }

    public function testCreateUserName()
    {
        // ...
    }
}

There is also a symmetrical method teardown() that is called after each test, though it is rare that you would need to define this method.
Check out the PHPUnit manual page on Fixtures for more information. I'd recommend reviewing the manual further for information on how you can make tests depend on each other or have one test provide data to another test.

Emergency help lies in your handset
As government mandates panic buttons on mobile phones, makers slowly respond
By Anand Parthasarathy
Bangalore, September 25 2016: The spate of attacks on women in recent years, has prompted the Indian government to make an emergency call button mandatory on all mobile phones sold in India, from January 2017.
An SOS from a phone by itself is of limited help, unless one can quickly establish from where it originated. So, government has also set a date -- January 2018 -- by which phones must have in-built location capability based on the Global Positioning System (GPS) satellite network.
These are all well meaning initiatives, but will the makers fall in line? The global mobile handset industry is generally unwilling to customise phones for one country in any aspect that affects hardware. Software is a different matter -- and most international brands overlay the user interface with localized extensions -- mostly making money in the process through content providers.
The government's diktat can be met in two ways: by a physical button somewhere on the face or back of the phone -- or by a virtual button on the screen, through software. It looks like either will meet the requirement. The second option is simply achieved and industry shouldn't quibble , if it wants to do business in what is the world's largest remaining market for mobile phones. A feature phone, industry jargon for a basic non-smart, non-touch handset can't create a virtual button. So it will have to get round the limitation, by dedicating a numeric key -- like 9 -- to invoke the SOS function.
The government order was issued in April -- and finally this month, a few mobile phone makers have answered the challenge and announced models with an emergency button.
One of the most affordable is Admire Star from the Indian maker, Zen Mobile, a dual 3-G SIM, dual camera, 4.5 inch screen, device running the latest Android 6 Marshmallow OS. It offers an SOS feature that allows the user to send location details to 5 pre-selected numbers, in the event of an emergency.
Videocon, launched a designed-in-India smartphone last week -- Cube 3 -- with a built-in "SOS--BeSafe" app. It cleverly uses the power on-off button as the panic button to send alerts to the numbers on the emergency list. Making good use of GPS, Videocon has created a tool where a map shows nearby police stations and hospitals. Other security -related features include 'Alert', 'Walk with Me' and 'Reach on Time'.. all tools to assure loved ones of your safety. Cube 3 is basically a 4G VoLTE phone with 3GB RAM, 5 inch HD screen and a 13 MP rear camera -- for Rs 8490
|Women are not the only target customers for phones with emergency buttons. What about senior citizens? Many still prefer the older candybar-shaped feature phones with physical keys and a non-touch screen -- provided the keys are large and chunky. SeniorWorld, a product portal aimed at the elderly, features an affordable ( Rs 3375) handset for seniors, called Easyfone. You can dial up to 8 contacts just by pressing a single digit number, indicated beside a photo of the person, on the 2.2 inch screen, four at a time. Another thoughtful feature: a cradle-type charger, much easier than having to plug and unplug the normal charging cord. But most usefully, Easyfone has a large physical button on the back cover which sets off multiple calls, text messages -- and a siren for immediate help. You can set the Menu to English and Hindi.
This is the SOS button scene today. There are 90 days for the rest of the industry to comply and make India the first nation, where personal safety is a default feature on all phones.
