Campus Central project
CAMPUS CENTRAL
The Campus Central project is one of the University's biggest infrastructure investments since our foundation, designed with input from the Students' Union, staff and local stakeholders. The £21.7 million project will see the refurbishment of the existing Atrium; the creation of a new three-storey building at the heart of the campus; and a landscaped, pedestrian-friendly Queen's Court offering students, staff and visitors a host of new study and social spaces.
Building work on Campus Central is due to be complete in academic year 2020/21, along with a concurrent development project to build an iconic new sports centre at the University.
What we're developing
The £21.7 million Campus Central project will see the creation of:
New student support facilities
Learning and research collaboration spaces
Pedestrianised Queen's Court
More social and study spaces
Enhanced retail and catering
New transport hub
Transforming the campus
Campus Central will significantly enhance the student experience at Stirling – delivering facilities that match our ambitions for the future and maximising the impact of our stunning surroundings.
Construction impact and timeline FAQs
The Campus Central project started on site on 29th April 2019, with the Atrium refurbishment due to be completed by the contractor at the end of February and the remainder of the project (new extension and external works) due to be complete in academic year 2020/21. Find out more about the works with our FAQs below.
Why is the University investing in this project?
We've listened to feedback from our staff and students. The Campus Central project responds to requests for enhanced services and improved teaching and learning, research and social spaces. The investment will transform the centre of our campus, creating a clear heart to connect our current student and staff communities, facilities and Macrobert Arts Centre, and deliver a host of new and improved facilities – all of which will significantly enhance and improve the student experience at Stirling. The development has already delivered the new bus hub facility and will include a refurbished and revitalised Atrium, along with a three-storey extension, which will more than double the space currently available, adding 3,000m2 of additional floor space, together with a pedestrianised and landscaped Queen's Court. It is essential that the University has facilities that match our ambitions for the future, and new spaces for education, learning, research, retail and catering are key to helping us meet the changing needs of our University community.
What is the environmental impact of the development?
The development will enhance and maximise the impact of the University's natural surroundings, with Queen's Court pedestrianised, re-landscaped and available for events. The University has taken every precaution to ensure there is minimal impact on the environment during the development. In line with relevant regulations, a number of surveys looking at flora and fauna were carried out prior to work starting. Barriers will also be erected to protect trees at Queen's Court throughout the build.
When will the construction works commence and when will Campus Central be open?
Construction company Robertson Group started to prepare the Campus Central site on 29 April, and commenced major work on 1 July. Phase 1, comprising the Atrium refurbishment, will be complete by the end of February 2020. Upon completion of phase 2, which comprises the three-storey extension, Campus Central is planned to open in academic year 2020/21.
Can I see a model of the Campus Central building?
Yes, a model of the proposed Campus Central building and external landscaping is available to view on level 2 of the Library.
What disruption will students, staff and visitors to the campus face?
Campus Central works started on 29 April 2019. Inevitably, there will be some noise and disruption as the major works progress, but we're working closely with all our stakeholders and contractors to ensure that we are able to mitigate this impact. The latest information and regular updates about the project will be posted on this web page.
Building access and parking
How will access be impacted during the planned works?
The construction site is clearly separated behind fencing and hoardings. Access has been fully considered and alternative routes provided and signposted throughout the period of the construction works.
Will I be able to access the shops, cafes and food outlets during the period of the construction works?
Stir Café and Market Street have closed for the works. The new catering provision will open again in early 2020. Staff and students will still be able to access all other shops, cafes and food outlets. Details of re-opening dates will be published later in the year. For a full list of places to eat and drink please visit the Eating and Drinking guide on the University's website.
How will I access Macrobert Arts Centre, Atrium, Library and the Students' Union?
A temporary and accessible entrance via Haldane's Restaurant is now in use. Throughout the period of works the Students' Union can continue to be accessed through both the entrance off the Atrium and via the path leading from the loch bridge.
I noticed that there are short duration closures of some spaces during works?
Yes, during the course of the works there is a need for short duration closures to spaces where the works cross over with the occupied spaces in the Atrium and Macrobert. When these short duration works are required, advance notice of these works will be communicated. The University has also worked with the contractor to ensure that as much of this work as possible is done overnight or at weekends.
Can I still access student support services during the build?
Yes – Student Support Services will be operating as usual throughout the project in their normal locations. To find out more about the services available, opening times and contact details, please visit the Student Support Services webpage. Student Support Services will move to the new Campus Central facilities when the construction works are completed.
Will I still be able to access the prayer facilities?
Alternative provision will be made available from Monday 1 July until February 2020. Check this page for regular updates.
Will parking be affected?
There will be no reduction in parking during the build and all car parks will remain open. Five, new accessible parking bays are provided opposite the temporary drop-off point, which has been created adjacent the walkway to the new Macroberts Arts Centre entrance.
Will there be a vehicle drop-off for those accessing the Macrobert Arts Centre and the Atrium?
Yes, there will be a temporary drop-off and turning area on East Link Road, around 50m from the temporary entrance to Macrobert Arts Centre.
Will I still be able to access the bike racks outside the Atrium?
The existing bike racks which sit underneath the pedestrian bridge between the Atrium and the Cottrell Building, to the right-hand side of the entrance to the Atrium, will be unavailable during the work. Replacement and additional bike racks have been provided and positioned alongside the existing bike racks on the Cottrell side of Queen's Court.
Will I still be able to access the archives and special collections during the period of the construction works?
The archives reading room has moved to a temporary location in the S corridor of the University Library, for the duration of the Campus Central project building works. The new location opened to researchers on Monday 1 July. Staff at the library reception desk can direct you to the new reading room.
Where are accessible toilets located?
Accessible toilets are provided in all our main buildings on campus. Within the Campus Central development our library has accessible toilets on all levels, additionally the Students' Union has an accessible toilet next to the Studio bar and also at Macrobert Arts Centre an accessible toilet is located at the Haldane's entrance.
Library, IT and Study Zone
Will I still be able to access the Library and the Study Zone during the work?
The Library is open as usual throughout the works period. Access to the Library is via the main entrance off the Atrium – pathways through the hoardings are clearly marked and signposted.
The University has invested significantly in the Library over the summer, providing nearly 180 additional study spaces in the library. This investment has been made in response to student and staff feedback and represents a 25% increase in study space in our Library, taking us from 746 seats to 922, all delivered for the start of semester. Each floor has additional spaces, so students can find extra seating in silent study on level 4, quiet on level 3 and social on level 2. We've added a mixture of types of study space, including individual study booths, study tables, sofas, and state-of-the-art group study tables with wireless displays for students to collaborate on. Almost all of the study booths and tables have a range of power outputs for students to use, including three pin sockets, USB and USB-C sockets.
Whilst the Study Zone will be unavailable during the first phase of the work a variety of study space with computers is available across campus for students, including 2Y5. Further information is available here. When the Study Zone is returned in the new year, it will have enhanced study facilities with more study spaces and new furniture/layout.
Will Library opening hours be affected?
No – the Library will remain open throughout the project. Opening times can be found here.
How can I return library books throughout the building period?
The Library has in place a temporary book drop outside the Library front door when it is closed.
Will Wi-Fi be available in the Library and Atrium throughout the works?
The Library will provide a full Wi-Fi service, as at present. The service in the Atrium may be affected during different phases of the work.
Who can we contact with questions about the construction work?
We welcome your feedback: please contact the University's Estates team, by emailing: propmanadmin@stir.ac.uk

Q: Sign Xml according to Soap, missing elements I have trouble with soap api. I have to sign Xml, everything goes well but my signature is still invalid. While testing this Api with SoapUI everything is all right. Main problem is that some elements are missing like `

wsu:id, KeyInfo id,SignatureId and Reference URI

All those elements are the same except four last numbers(in soapUI).
I know that they are KeyInfo elements but inside my signatures those values are null.
This is how I sign my xml:
        //Create new instance of SignedXml then load the document into it

        SignedXml signedXml = new SignedXml(xmlDoc);
        signedXml.SigningKey =cert.PrivateKey;

        //According to SoapUi Signature Algorithm must be rsa-sha1
        signedXml.SignedInfo.SignatureMethod = SignedXml.XmlDsigRSASHA1Url;

        //According to SoapUi Canonization method must be xml-exc-c14n
        signedXml.SignedInfo.CanonicalizationMethod = "http://www.w3.org/2001/10/xml-exc-c14n#";

        //KeyInfo

        KeyInfo keyInfo = new KeyInfo();
        KeyInfoX509Data keyInfoData = new KeyInfoX509Data(cert);
        keyInfo.AddClause(keyInfoData);
        signedXml.KeyInfo = keyInfo;

        //Reference

        Reference reference = new Reference("");
        reference.AddTransform(new XmlDsigC14NTransform());

        //Signature
        Signature XmlSignature = signedXml.Signature;
        XmlSignature.SignedInfo.AddReference(reference);
        signedXml.ComputeSignature();

Do I need to add some transforms to reference ? Like in this solution?
XmlDsigEnvelopedSignatureTransform env = new XmlDsigEnvelopedSignatureTransform();
XmlDsigExcC14NTransform c14n = new XmlDsigExcC14NTransform();

reference.AddTransform(env);
reference.AddTransform(c14n);

Epazz Transitioning Into a Holding Company via Acquisitions & Spin-Offs Business Model
Epazz Reports 33 Percent Increase in Assets for 2012; Critical for Listing on a Senior Stock Exchange
CHICAGO, IL--(Marketwired - Jul 16, 2013) - Epazz, Inc. (OTCQB: EPAZ), a leading provider of cloud based business software solutions announced today that the Company is effectively transitioning to a holding company. The key concept with the holding company is that businesses are acquired, developed and spun off with a dividend being paid to shareholders. At this time, Epazz, Inc. has multiple spin-offs and stock dividends in the process of being brought to completion. Upcoming announcements will detail the first spin-off and will name the second spin-off.
The company will be acquiring additional software companies to help grow our revenues and assets for a possible listing on a senior stock exchange.
Asset value is a key ingredient for listing on a senior stock exchange. For the year ended December 31, 2012 we had assets of $1,378,030 compared to assets of $1,035,222 for the year ended December 31, 2011, an increase of $342,808 or 33% from the prior period. Through acquisitions, Epazz management expects a similar or greater rate of growth through 2013 and beyond.
Epazz, Inc.'s CEO, Shaun Passley, said, "The holding company model is the best way to reward shareholders of our Company. We are aggressively pursuing additional acquisitions and have several spin-offs which we are working on and expect to begin announcing as early as this week. We are cleaning up the balance sheet and continuing to grow at the same time. I expect the remainder of 2013 and into 2014 to be a good time for shareholders of EPAZ."
Epazz, Inc., a leading provider of cloud based business software solutions announced that for the year ended December 31, 2012 we had revenue of $1,193,217 compared to revenue of $735,972 for the year ended December 31, 2011, an increase of $457,245 or 62% from the prior period. The increase in revenues is mainly attributable to the sales generated by our newly acquired subsidiaries. Epazz also announced a 300 percent increase in its client base in 2012 and expects those numbers to continue to climb and that with the pending acquisitions expects revenues to double in 2013. Finally, Epazz reported that Project Flex, which is a patent pending new technology that will change the way cooling technology is used has passed all beta tests and is at the next stage which will lead to a spin-off of the new Company with a dividend being paid to shareholders.

Better Buy: AGNC Investment or Annaly Capital?
After being shunned for most of 2022, the mortgage real estate investment trust (REIT) sector regained some popularity as investors sensed the Federal Reserve's tightening cycle is wrapping up, which will remove a major headwind for the sector. The two biggest mortgage REITs, AGNC Investment (NASDAQ: AGNC) and Annaly Capital Management (NYSE: NLY), have mounted quite the rally over the past several months. The idea is that rental income will cover the interest costs on the debt the REIT used to finance the property.

New England Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski says he will start week 1
Jonathan Machlin
The Patriots star TE Rob Gronkowski has not seen an NFL field in months, but intends to start week 1 against the Dolphins.
Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski missed nearly half of the 2013 regular season and the entire 2014 preseason as he recovers from a multitude of surgeries, but says he will ready to play in Sunday's opener against the Dolphins.
"Super excited. Super pumped," Gronkowski said, via Mike Reiss of ESPNBoston.com. "I feel mentally and physically ready, for sure."
Gronkowski added that he won't be playing every snap, saying that he hopes to get his "feet wet" against Miami before taking on a bigger role in the coming weeks.
Gronkowski's injury history has been extensive in the last two seasons: back injuries, multiple knee injuries, among other various limb injuries from his high-impact playing style. He has missed 14 games in the last two seasons, but still made the Pro Bowl in 2012.
In 2013, despite playing only 7 games, Gronkowski was 3rd on the Patriots in receiving yards and tied for second in receiving TDs. His 15.2 yards/reception were the most among Patriots receivers, and 21st in the league.

True Knicks Detective
by Jason Concepcion
INTERVIEW TRANSCRIPT 2/19/14
Detective Gilbough: Thanks for coming in, we—
Rust Cohle: First off, somebody's got to run and get me some beer.
Detective Papania: You can't drink in here.
Cohle: It's trade deadline day. On trade deadline day I start drinking at noon and you guys aren't gonna get in the way of that.
[Detective Papania leaves the room.]
Cohle: [Lights cigarette.]
Det. Gilbough: [Crosstalk.] … you know you can't smoke in here.
Cohle: You want to hear this or not?
[Papania returns, sets beer on table.]
Cohle: OK, so lemme guess — dead girls posed at ritualistic crime scenes? Couple kids found out in the swamp …
Det. Papania: No, worse. The Knicks' trade deadline options.
Cohle: [Sighs.]
Det. Gilbough: Tell us what you know about the rumored Clippers deal.
Cohle: Shumpert and Felton to the Clippers for Darren Collison, Reggie Bullock, and whatever else to make the salaries match. Yeah, I heard about it. See, the thing to understand is the Knicks are a mistake. A mistake of evolution. Nature gave us consciousness and created an aspect of nature separate from itself. We are consciousnesses wrapped in rotting meat trying to figure out the point of it all, and the lesson of the Knicks at deadline day is this: There is no point. Of course the Knicks want to trade Felton. He's shooting 29 percent from 3, only makes 53 percent of his dang layups, and gets caught on screens like they're made out of rubber cement. Collison? Well, he's a slight upgrade. Slight. And he's got a cheaper contract. Sure. The question then becomes why the Clippers would take on Felton just to add Iman Shumpert—
Det. Papania: What about Iman Shumpert? They sure have been trying to trade him a bunch. It's not like he's been playing well on offense. But he's an athlete. Defends the perimeter. The team is almost seven points per 100 possessions better when he's in the game.
Cohle: And two points better on offense per 100 possessions, despite Iman only shooting 33 percent with zero free-throw attempts over his last eight games. Listen, detectives, 14 years, hour after hour, watching Knicks draftees, wasted assets, young players who come in here all full of life and excitement over playing in the Garden, in New York City, making hashtags and all multipart handshake celebrations, jumping off the bench to high-five teammates — you know what you recognize after all that time? You look in their eyes as the trade rumors pile up, doesn't matter if it's on TV or in the paper, you can still read them. And you know what you see? At the end, they welcomed it. Welcomed the trade. Not at first. At first they were angry, bewildered, betrayed. But after month after month of being yanked around, not being developed, they realized how easy it was to just let go. That's what happened to Iman.
Det. Papania: [Unintelligible.] … so you'd trade him?
Cohle: Might as well. He's ruined anyway. [Cuts beer can into the shape of a man.] They all are. Any young player who goes in there will be. Still, Shumpert and Felton for Collison and Bullock is still a giving up an asset to make what is essentially a lateral trade. I'd try to get a draft pick for him.
Det. Gilbough: So, you don't think the team will do anything? You don't think they'll do anything … relevant.
Det. Pampania: [Slides folder across table.] What about Udrih for Jordan Hamilton?
Cohle: [Opens folder, looks at pictures inside.] Is that all you got?
Det. Gilbough: You think they'll fire Woodson?
Cohle: Twenty wins, can't guard anything, random double-teaming, sagging off 3-point shooters. Nah, they won't fire him. He's got friends in high places, detectives. [Takes drag on cigarette.] See, the trade deadline for the Knicks, same as the offseason, it's all about selling hope, a light at the end of the tunnel. Well, that's what the general manager sells, that's what the owner sells, talking about competing for championships after dealing three draft picks for Andrea Bargnani, or floating the details of a trade for another one-way player, or over-the-hill malcontent. Matt Barnes. Ha. See, the front office encourages your capacity for illusion. Then they tell you it's a fucking virtue. Always a buck to be had doing that. Season ticket sales, corporate luxury boxes. And it's such a desperate sense of entitlement, isn't it? [Gesturing toward ceiling.] "Surely this is all for me? Me, me, I … I … we're so fucking important, the World's Most Famous Arena." Fuck you. See, in this eternity, there is no time.
Det. Gilbough: Now, hold on—
Rust Cohle: You ever hear of something called "M-brane theory"?
Det. Pampania: No, that's over my head.
Cohle: It's, like, in this universe, we process time linearly. Forward. But outside of our space-time, from what would be a fourth-dimensional perspective, time wouldn't exist. From that vantage, our space-time would look flattened, with matter occupying every position it ever occupied. And we just run around on that track. I mean, how many times have we had this conversation, detectives? About what the Knicks will do, which moves they'll make? How many times have we been in this room, talking about the team being over the cap, giving up assets for moves, that at best, move the team sideways on their little infinite track of space-time? We'll be here again, detectives. Wondering if Mike Woodson is going to be fired. Again. And again. There's no closure. Ha. Closure. This is a world where nothing involved with the Knicks is ever solved.

An Italian mother is appealing a recent ruling from a Venice court of minors requiring her son to be separated from her 12 hours a day. The case began when the mom refused to let her son see his father over claims of sexual abuse. When a social worker looked into it, they found that the boy had an antagonistic attitude towards his dad, was strongly bonded with his mom, had "difficulty of sexual identification" and acted in "aggressive, provocative, [and] rude" ways towards adults and peers.
During the trial, lawyers called the boy "effeminate in a provocative way" adding that he "tries in every way to show that he is different" and mentioning that he attended school in eyeshadow, painted nails and facial glitter. The mother says that he wore the makeup only once during a third grade Halloween party.
All the same, the court decided that the boy had a "personality disorder" from having "almost exclusively female role models" and, after saying that both parents had failed in their responsibilities, ruled that the boy must spend 12 hours a day in a "youth community" away from his mom.
The court contends that the ruling has nothing to do with the boy's gender expression or sexual orientation, rather they want to give him "a space to enable him to meet his thoughts and desires"), but the mother's lawyer worries that the community will reject her gay son and that separating him from his mother's supportive influence may make him suicidal.
The mother has vowed to appeal at a hearing next Tuesday.

Radiant Child is a heartfelt and vibrant picture book about the childhood and life of Puerto Rican-Haitian American artist Jean-Michel Basquiat. Written for young children, it celebrates Basquiat's art and traces the early steps of his artistic formation, as he makes his way toward the pinnacle of fame. From boyhood, he begins developing his own "messy" style of art-making, one that evokes powerful personal emotions, while addressing the sound and fury of social and cultural politics. Javaka Steptoe received the 2017 Caldecott Medal for his work as the book's illustrator, a fitting recognition of the dynamic and engaging art seen in these pages. Continue reading.


CONOR Murray will decide on whether he is fit to face the All-Blacks in next Saturday's glamour autumn international with New Zealand at the Aviva Stadium, 7pm.
Ireland head coach Joe Schmidt said it would be the Patrickswell man's call on whether he would be in the mix for selection to face New Zealand in Dublin next weekend.
Asked about the possibility of Murray being involved in next weekend's battle of the top two ranked sides in the world, Schmidt said: "I'm going to chat to Conor and see how he is.
"It will really be Conor's call, so I can't answer that until I've chatted to him."
In his post-match press briefing head coach Schmidt admitted it was 'highly unlikely' that 29-year-old Murray would feature against the All-Blacks.
Schmidt said: "It's not the injury it's really just how ready Conor is, how fully fit he is because the injury itself has gone really well.
"So it is tough to come back into a game of that magnitude though.
"It is highly unlikely he will be involved, but as I said, I will talk to him."

Current: Power Clean
by Exercise Technique Manual for Resistance Training 3rd Edition with Online Video
Kinetic Select June 2017
power clean olympic lifts weightlifting kinetic select
The power clean is similar to the power snatch but with two major differences. Firstly, the final bar position is at the shoulders, not over the head, and secondly, the grip is approximately shoulder-width apart, whereas the snatch has a considerably wider grip.
The following is an exclusive excerpt from the book Exercise Technique Manual for Resistance Training-3rd Edition with Online Video, published by Human Kinetics. All text and images provided by Human Kinetics.
This exercise is similar to the power snatch but with two major differences:
The final bar position is at the shoulders, not over the head.
The grip is approximately shoulder-width apart, whereas the snatch has a considerably wider grip.
Because of the many commonalities, the description of the power clean technique is slightly abbreviated and emphasis is placed on the unique aspects of this exercise in comparison to the power snatch.
Starting Position
Stand with the feet placed between hip- and shoulder-width apart with the toes pointed slightly outward so the knees track directly over the feet.
Squat down with the hips lower than the shoulders and grasp the bar evenly with a shoulder-width (or slightly wider), pronated grip.
Position the arms outside the knees with the elbows fully extended and pointed out to the sides.
Position the bar approximately 1 inch (3 cm) in front of the shins and over the balls of the feet.
Just before liftoff, observe the preparatory body position and lifting guidelines to place the body in the correct position to lift the bar off the floor. All repetitions begin from this position.
Exact positions of the torso, hips, knees, and bar are related to the lifter's body segment length and lower body joint flexibility. An alternative exercise is the hang power clean, which begins with the bar just above the knees instead of on the floor.
First Pull
Begin the exercise by forcefully extending the hips and knees. Keep the torso angle constant in relation to the floor, do not let the hips rise before or faster than the shoulders, and keep the back neutral or slightly arched.
Maintain full elbow extension, with the head in line with the spine, and the shoulders over or slightly ahead of the bar.
Keep the bar as close to the shins as possible. The dumbbell should slide up the thigh, or remain very close to the thigh, as it accelerates upward.
As the bar rises to just above the knees, thrust the hips forward and slightly flex the knees to move the thighs against, and the knees under, the bar.
As the knees flex, shift the body's weight forward toward the middle of the feet, keeping the heels on the floor.
Maintain a neutral or slightly arched back, with the elbows fully extended and pointed out to the sides, the shoulders over or slightly ahead of the bar, and the head in line with the spine.
At the finish of the transition, the body is in position for the second pull (power phase).
Second Pull (Power Phase)
From this position with the bar on the thighs between the knees and middle of the thighs, start the second pull by forcefully and quickly extending the hips, knees, and ankles.
The bar should pass as close to the torso as possible.
Keep the shoulders over the bar and the elbows extended as long as possible while the hips, knees, and ankles are extending.
As the lower body joints fully extend, rapidly shrug the shoulders.
The elbows should be kept extended and pointed out to the sides during the shrugging movement.
As the shoulders reach their highest elevation, flex the elbows to begin pulling the body under the bar.
Continue to pull with the arms as high and as long as possible with the elbows moving up and out to the sides.
The upward momentum from the triple extension will result in an erect or slightly hyperextended torso and head, and the feet may come off the floor.
The catch phase of the power clean ends with the bar on the anterior deltoids and clavicles, similar to the arm and bar position of the front squat exercise.
As the second pull ends with the bar at maximal height, pull the body under the bar by rotating the arms and hands around and then under the bar and by flexing the hips and knees to approximately a quarter-squat position.
The feet will regain contact with the floor in a slightly wider stance in comparison to the starting position.
The bar should be caught at the anterior deltoids and clavicles with the
head facing forward,
neck neutral or slightly hyperextended,
wrists hyperextended,
elbows fully flexed,
upper arms parallel to the floor,
back neutral or slightly arched,
feet flat on the floor, and
body's weight over the middle of the feet.
The bar should be caught with the torso almost fully erect and the shoulders slightly ahead of the buttocks. This position, which parallels the body position during the beginning of the downward movement of the front squat, allows the bar to be directly over the center of gravity.
If the torso is too erect, the momentum of the bar will push the shoulders backward and hyperextend the low back, resulting in an increased risk of injury.
After gaining control and balance, stand up to a fully erect position.
Downward Movement
At the completion of the repetition, rotate the arms back around the bar to unrack it from the anterior deltoids and clavicles, and slowly lower the bar down to the thighs. Slightly flex the hips and knees to cushion the impact of the bar on the thighs.
Slowly flex the hips and knees at the same rate (to keep an erect torso position) to return the bar to the floor in a controlled manner.
Reposition the bar and the body for the next repetition.

Q: Division algebra = Field? Is a division algebra a field? If not, why does it differ?
It is an abelian group with multiplication and division. How not a field?

A: A division algebra does not need to be associative or commutative.
The quaternions are not commutative but are associative.
The octonions are neither commutative nor associative.

A: A division algebra is "essentially" an algebra with a division operation.
An algebra is "essentially" a vector space with a multiplication operation.
Any field is an algebra over itself (i.e. take both the scalars and vectors to be elements of the field -- the same way that any field is a vector space over itself, and then notice that multiplication of "vectors" is immediate since elements of a field can be multiplied with each other). Since division is also defined for elements of a field, any field also happens to be a division algebra.
However, in the same way that not all vector spaces are fields, not all algebras are fields, and not all division algebras are fields. Fields are just a special case.


Anti-Semite Linda Sarsour Comes To Defense Of Ilhan Omar!
The racists and Jew haters around the country are coming out to protect Democrat Ilhan Omar for her bigoted statements. Earlier KKK leader David Duke came out in support of Omar, and now radical anti-Semite Linda Sarsour has come to the defense of Omar.
Linda Sarsour wrote a lengthy note in defense of Ilhan Omar and doubled down on the Hitler like Jewish people conspiracies that Omar spewed.
We have work to do to dismantle all forms of racism including antisemitism. We do that under the leadership of Jewish allies who have invested in education, relationship building not vilification and harassment.
It is absolutely outrageous for us not to see the hypocrisy of Kevin McCarthy and others like him who are targeting Ilhan who themselves have engaged in actual antisemitic tropes and some worse. Antisemites will not be held up as the moral authority on antisemitism.
I will not be silent in the face of attacks, harassment and targeted policing of speech from a Black Muslim woman elected official, our sister Ilhan Omar in the name of combatting antisemitism. We can stand up for Ilhan knowing her record and what she stands for and also combat antisemitism. I will not be distracted by the fact that dangerous antisemitism is being peddled by the very people claiming to care about Jews and antisemítism.

Last coal delivery made to Duke Energy's power plant in south Asheville
The last coal delivery to Duke Energy's power plant in south Asheville arrived Monday by train. It was a milestone in the pending closure of the Lake Julian power plant, which has been operating since 1964.
Duke is closing down the plant and transitioning to a one fueled with natural gas. The new plant should be up and running by the end of this year or early next year.
Duke last year announced plans to close all of seven of its North Carolina coal plants, a process it said would take a total of 30 years. The company is making the move for a number of reasons. It can generate more power with the new gas-fired plant, and it can address environmental concerns such as moving to more wind and solar power. Another reason to move away from coal – to stop dealing with costly, dangerous coal ash disposal and remediation. Local and national environmental groups have waged tough and successful legal battles against the utility on that front over the past several years.
Utilities across the country are moving away from coal, and while environmentalists cheer that, they also don't see a natural gas plant as all that much better. They're continuing to push utilities to go deeper into renewable energy sources.
Councilwoman Julie Mayfield, who works as co-director of the environmental nonprofit MountainTrue, shared the coal trail photo in a Facebook post on Tuesday. Here's some of what Mayfield wrote:
"As the sign says, this is the last coal train to ever come through Asheville to deliver coal to the Lake Julian plant. This reflects the success of the Asheville Beyond Coal Campaign, led by the Sierra Club, MountainTrue, and the Waterkeeper Alliance – all ably represented by the Southern Environmental Law Center. Securing the closure of this plant is the kind of victory that is hard to come by in this work, and I am proud to have worked alongside so many smart, strategic, dedicated people to achieve it."

Zuckerberg to integrate WhatsApp, Instagram and Facebook Messenger
January 26, 2019 TechnologyCONNECTION, Facebook, INSTAGRAM, mark Zuckenberg, NETWORK, WHATSAPPAsdiq Rana
CALIFORNIA (Reuters) – Facebook Inc Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg is planning to unify the underlying messaging infrastructure of the WhatsApp, Instagram and Facebook Messenger services and incorporate end-to-end encryption into these apps, the New York Times reported.
The three services will, however, continue as stand-alone apps, the report said, citing four people involved in the effort.
Facebook said it is working on adding end-to-end encryption, which protects messages from being viewed by anyone except the participants in a conversation, to more of its messaging products, and considering ways to make it easier for users to connect across networks.
"There is a lot of discussion and debate as we begin the long process of figuring out all the details of how this will work," a spokesperson said.
After the changes, a Facebook user, for instance, will be able send an encrypted message to someone who has only a WhatsApp account, according to the New York Times report.
Integrating the messaging services could make it harder for antitrust regulators to break up Facebook by undoing its acquisitions of WhatsApp and Instagram, said Sam Weinstein, a professor at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law.
"If Facebook is worried about that then one way it can defend itself is to integrate those services," Weinstein said.
But Weinstein said breaking up Facebook is viewed as an "extreme remedy" by regulators, particularly in the United States, so concerns over antitrust scrutiny may not have been a factor behind the integration.
MAJOR TRADEOFFS
Some former Facebook security engineers and an outside encryption expert said the plan could be good news for user privacy, in particular by extending end-to-end encryption.
"I'm cautiously optimistic it's a good thing," said former Facebook Chief Security Officer Alex Stamos, who now teaches at Stanford University. "My fear was that they were going to drop end-to-end encryption."
However, the technology does not always conceal metadata – information about who is talking to whom – sparking concern among some researchers that the data might be shared.
Any metadata integration likely will let Facebook learn more about users, linking identifiers such as phone numbers and email addresses for those using the services independently of each other.
Facebook could use that data to charge more for advertising and targeted services, although it also would have to forgo ads based on message content in Messenger and Instagram.
Other major tradeoffs will have to be made too, Stamos and others said.
Messenger allows strangers to contact people without knowing their phone numbers, for example, increasing the risk of stalking and approaches to children.
Systems based on phone numbers have additional privacy concerns, because governments and other entities can easily extract location information from them.
Stamos said he hoped Facebook would get public input from terrorism experts, child safety officers, privacy advocates and others and be transparent in its reasoning when it makes decisions on the details.
"It should be an open process, because you can't have it all," Stamos said.

Lionel Barrymore (April 28, 1878 – November 15, 1954) was an American actor of stage, screen and radio as well as a film director. He won an Academy Award for Best Actor for his performance in A Free Soul (1931), and remains perhaps best known for the role of the villainous Mr. Potter character in Frank Capra's 1946 film It's a Wonderful Life. He was a member of the theatrical Barrymore family.
Lionel Barrymore was born Lionel Herbert Blythe in Philadelphia, the son of actors Georgiana Drew Barrymore and Maurice Barrymore. He was the elder brother of Ethel and John Barrymore, the uncle of John Drew Barrymore, Diana Barrymore, Dolores Barrymore, Sam, Ethel, and John Drew Colt and the grand-uncle of Drew Barrymore. Barrymore was raised a Roman Catholic. He attended the Episcopal Academy in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
In her autobiography, Eleanor Farjeon recalled that when she and Barrymore were friends as toddlers, she would take off her shoes and he would kiss her feet.
He was married twice, to actresses Doris Rankin and Irene Fenwick, a one-time lover of his brother John. Doris's sister Gladys was married to Lionel's uncle Sidney Drew, which made Gladys both his aunt and sister-in-law.
Doris Rankin bore Lionel two daughters, Ethel Barrymore II (b. 1908) and Mary Barrymore (b. 1916). Neither child survived infancy, though Mary lived a few months. Barrymore never truly recovered from the deaths of his girls, and their loss undoubtedly strained his marriage to Doris Rankin, which ended in 1923. Years later, Barrymore developed a fatherly affection for Jean Harlow, who was born about the same time as his two daughters and would have been about their age. When Jean died in 1937, Lionel and Clark Gable mourned her as though she had been family.
Stage career
Barrymore began his stage career in the mid-1890s, acting with his formidable grandmother Louisa Lane Drew. He appeared on Broadway in his early twenties with his uncle John Drew Jr. in such plays as The Second in Command (1901) and The Mummy and the Hummingbird (1902), both produced by Charles Frohman. In 1905 Lionel and his siblings, John and Ethel, were all being groomed under the tutelage of Frohman. That year Lionel appeared with John in a short play called Pantaloon while John appeared with Ethel in Alice-Sit-By-The-Fire.
In 1910, after he and Doris had spent many years in Paris, Lionel came back to Broadway, where he established his reputation as a dramatic and character actor. He and his wife often acted together on stage. He proved his talent in many plays, including Peter Ibbetson (1917) (with brother John), The Copperhead (1918) (with Doris), and The Jest (1919) (again with John). Lionel gave a short-lived performance as MacBeth in 1921. The play was not successful and more than likely convinced Lionel to permanently return to films. One of Lionel's last plays was Laugh, Clown, Laugh (1923) with his second wife, Irene Fenwick. This play would later be made into a 1928 silent film starring Lionel's friend, Lon Chaney, Sr.
Film career
Barrymore began making films about 1911 with D.W. Griffith at the Biograph Studios. There are claims that he made an earlier film with Griffith called The Paris Hat (1908) but no such movie exists. Lionel and Doris were in Paris in 1908, where Lionel attended art school and where their first baby, Ethel, was born. Lionel mentions in his autobiography, We Barrymores, that he and Doris were in France when Bleriot flew the channel on July 25, 1909.
Entering films the same year his uncle Sidney Drew began a film career at Vitagraph, Barrymore made The Battle (1911), The New York Hat (1912), Friends and Three Friends (1913). In 1915 he co-starred with Lillian Russell in a movie called Wildfire, one of the legendary Russell's few film appearances. He also made a foray into directing at Biograph. The last silent film he directed, Life's Whirlpool (Metro Pictures 1917), starred his sister, Ethel.
In early 1920, Barrymore reprised his title role in the stage play, The Copperhead (1920), in a Paramount Artcraft film of the same name.
Before the formation of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer in 1924, Barrymore forged a good relationship with Louis B. Mayer early on at Metro Pictures. He made numerous silent features for Metro, most of them now lost. He occasionally freelanced, returning to Griffith in 1924 to film America. His last film for Griffith was in 1928's Drums of Love.
After Lionel and Doris divorced in 1923, he married Irene Fenwick. The two went to Italy to film The Eternal City for Metro Pictures in Rome, combining work with their honeymoon. In 1924, he went to Germany to star in British producer-director Herbert Wilcox's Anglo-German co-production Decameron Nights, filmed at UFA's Babelsberg studios outside Berlin.
Prior to his marriage to Irene, he and his brother John engaged in a dispute over the issue of Irene's chastity in the wake of her having been one of John's lovers. The brothers didn't speak again for two years and weren't seen together until the premiere of John's film Don Juan in 1926, by which time they had patched up their differences. In 1924, he left Broadway for Hollywood. He starred as Frederick Harmon in director Henri Diamant-Berger's drama Fifty-Fifty (1925) opposite Hope Hampton and Louise Glaum, and made several other freelance motion pictures, including The Bells (Chadwick Pictures 1926) with a then-unknown Boris Karloff. After 1926, however, he worked almost exclusively for MGM, appearing opposite such luminaries as John Gilbert, Lon Chaney, Sr., Jean Harlow, Wallace Beery, Marie Dressler, Greta Garbo, Clark Gable, Spencer Tracy, and his brother John.
On the occasional loan-out, Barrymore had a big success with Gloria Swanson in 1928's Sadie Thompson and the aforementioned Griffith film, Drums of Love. Talkies were now a reality and Barrymore's stage-trained voice recorded well in sound tests. In 1929, he returned to directing films. During this early and imperfect sound film period, he made the controversial His Glorious Night with John Gilbert, Madame X starring Ruth Chatterton, and Rogue Song, Laurel & Hardy's first color film. Barrymore returned to acting in front of the camera in 1931. In that year, he won an Academy Award for his role as an alcoholic lawyer in A Free Soul (1931), after being nominated in 1930 for Best Director for Madame X. He could play many characters, like the evil Rasputin in the 1932 Rasputin and the Empress (in which he co-starred with siblings John Barrymore and Ethel Barrymore) and the ailing Oliver Jordan in Dinner at Eight (1933 – also with John Barrymore, although they had no scenes together).
During the 1930s and 1940s, he became stereotyped as grouchy but sweet elderly men in such films as The Mysterious Island (1929), Grand Hotel (1932, with John Barrymore), Captains Courageous (1937), You Can't Take It with You (1938), On Borrowed Time (1939, with Cedric Hardwicke), Duel in the Sun (1946), and Key Largo (1948).
In a series of Doctor Kildare movies in the 1930s and 1940s, he played the irascible Doctor Gillespie, a role he repeated in an MGM radio series that debuted in New York in 1950 and was later syndicated. He also played the title role in the 1940s radio series, Mayor of the Town. Barrymore had broken his hip in an accident, hence he played Gillespie in a wheelchair. Later, his worsening arthritis kept him in the chair. The injury also precluded his playing Ebenezer Scrooge in the 1938 MGM film version of A Christmas Carol, a role Barrymore played every year but two (1936, replaced by brother John Barrymore and 1938, replaced by Orson Welles) on the radio from 1934 through 1953.
His final film appearance was a cameo in Main Street to Broadway, an MGM musical comedy released in 1953. His sister Ethel also appeared in the film.
Perhaps his best known role, thanks to perennial Christmastime replays on television, was Mr. Potter, the miserly and mean-spirited banker in It's a Wonderful Life (1946) opposite James Stewart. The role suggested that of the "unreformed" stage of Barrymore's "Scrooge" characterization. Lionel's wife, Irene, died on Christmas Eve of 1936 and Lionel did not perform his annual Scrooge that year. John filled in as Scrooge for his grieving brother.
Barrymore loathed the income tax. He expressed an interest in appearing on television in the 1950s but felt compelled to remain loyal to his old friend and employer, Louis B. Mayer and MGM.
Barrymore was a Republican. In 1944, he attended the massive rally organized by David O. Selznick in the Los Angeles Coliseum in support of the Dewey-Bricker ticket as well as Governor Earl Warren of California, who would become Dewey's running mate in 1948 and later the Chief Justice of the United States. The gathering drew 93,000, with Cecil B. DeMille as the master of ceremonies and with short speeches by Hedda Hopper and Walt Disney. Among the others in attendance were Ann Sothern, Ginger Rogers, Randolph Scott, Adolphe Menjou, Gary Cooper, Eddy Arnold, William Bendix, and Walter Pidgeon.
Several sources argue that arthritis alone confined Barrymore to a wheelchair. The onset of the arthritis is not clear. Film historian Jeanine Basinger says it was serious by at least 1928, when Barrymore made Sadie Thompson in 1928. Screenwriter Anita Loos claimed that the arthritis was so bad by 1929, Barrymore was taking large quantities of morphine. Film historian David Wallace says it was "well known" that Barrymore was "addicted" to morphine due to arthritis by 1929, when Louis B. Mayer hired Barrymore to direct Redemption (a film from which Barrymore was removed). A history of Oscar-winning actors, however, says Barrymore was only "suffering" from arthritis, not crippled by it. Marie Dressler biographer Matthew Kennedy notes that when Barrymore won his Best Oscar award in 1930, the arthritis was still so minor that it only made him limp a little as he went on stage to accept the honor. Despite these rumors Barrymore can be seen being quite physical in late silent films like The Thirteenth Hour and West of Zanzibar where he can be seen climbing out of a window.
Others claim that Barrymore's broken hip alone was the cause of Barrymore's incapacity. Paul Donnelly says Barrymore's inability to walk was caused by a drawing table falling on him in 1936, breaking Barrymore's hip. Barrymore tripped over a cable while filming Saratoga in 1937, and broke his hip again. (Film historian Robert A. Osborne says Barrymore also suffered a broken kneecap.) The injury was painful enough that Donnelly, quoting Barrymore, says that Louis B. Mayer bought Barrymore $400 worth of cocaine every day to help him cope with the pain and allow him to sleep. Author David Schwartz says the hip fracture never healed, which was why Barrymore could not walk, while MGM historian John Douglas Eames claims that the injury was "crippling". Barrymore himself said in 1951, that it was breaking his hip twice that kept him in the wheelchair. He said he had no other problems, and that the hip healed well, but it made walking exceptionally difficult. Film historian Allen Eyles reached the same conclusion.
However, Lew Ayres biographer Lesley Coffin and Louis B. Mayer biographer Scott Eyman argue that it was the combination of the broken hip as well as Barrymore's worsening arthritis that put him in a wheelchair.
Syphilis has also been suggested as a cause of Barrymore's disability. Syphilis can severely affect joint movement. Barrymore family biographer Margot Peters says that close Barrymore friends Gene Fowler and James Doane both said Barrymore's arthritis was caused by syphilis, which they say he contracted in 1925. Eyman, however, explicitly rejects this hypothesis.
Whatever the cause of his disability, Barrymore's performance in Captains Courageous in 1937 was one of the last times he would be seen standing and walking unassisted. Afterward, Barrymore was able to get about for a short period of time on crutches even though he was in great pain. During the filming of 1938's You Can't Take It With You, the pain of standing with crutches was so severe that Barrymore required hourly shots of painkillers. By 1938, Barrymore used a wheelchair exclusively and never walked again. He could, however, stand for short periods of time such as at his brother's funeral being held by niece Diana Barrymore, much like FDR being held by one of his sons.
Barrymore was also a prolific composer. His works ranged from solo piano pieces to large-scale orchestral works, such as "Tableau Russe". His piano compositions, "Scherzo Grotesque" and "Song Without Words", were published by G. Schirmer in 1945.
Barrymore was a skillful graphic artist. For years, he maintained an artist's shop and studio attached to his home in Los Angeles. His etchings and drawings are prized by collectors around the world.
Lionel Barrymore died on November 15, 1954 from a heart attack in Van Nuys, California, and was entombed in the Calvary Cemetery in East Los Angeles, California.
Lionel Barrymore is honored with two stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, in the motion picture and radio categories. He is also a member of the American Theatre Hall of Fame, along with his siblings, Ethel and John.
In the classic animated series Jonny Quest in the episode Turu the Terrible the villain is a character called 'Deen'. He is elderly and wheelchair bound and is in command of a large pteranodon, an apparent survivor from the prehistoric dinosaur age. While Deen does not look like Lionel Barrymore, he is voiced by actor Everett Sloane whose voice is a dead ringer for Barrymore's.
In the animated series "Underdog," the recurring villain Simon Bar Sinister's voice is an impersonation of Barrymore.
In another animated series Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated episode "Theatre of Doom" Vincent Van Ghoul (a parody of Vincent Price) remarked that he saw Barrymore smashed his own play with a pipe.
In the 1948 cartoon short Hot Cross Bunny, Bugs Bunny does an impression of Barrymore as Dr. Gillespie.

Zimbabwe's hopes
> [W]e are tired and [absolutely] fed up of living like this. When we vote on Thursday it will be for food, clean water, affordable schools for our children, hospitals which have drugs and leaders who will respect us and our universal rights of speech, movement and association. I have a picture in my head of a man on a horse trailing a yellow banner in the middle of this weeks revolution in Kyrgyzstan. That image from the other side of the world in a country whose name I cannot even pronounce, gives me hope.
> One of Zimbabwe's most outspoken church leaders Sunday called for a peaceful uprising against President Robert Mugabe's autocratic rule, days before a parliamentary election that rights groups say is tainted by years of violence and intimidation.
> It is hard to have hope when you are surrounded by suffering. Viva Pius! Thank you for giving the people a voice. Thank you.
> At this point I noticed there were some members of the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission watching the commotion from just a few meters away. I picked them out by the insignia they were wearing. It struck me that they should be doing something about this unwarranted attack upon innocent members of the public who gathered lawfully and peacefully to hear the opposition leaders.
> The Zimbabwe Vigil will hold an all night vigil outside the Zimbabwean Embassy on The Strand, London on Wednesday March 30, starting at 8pm.
On Thursday March 31 from 5am to 5pm the Vigil will be holding a "Mock Ballot" outside the Zimbabwean Embassy. These times have been selected as they coincide with [the] period of polling in Zimbabwe.
"We will have mock transparent ballot boxes, ballot papers and polling officers. We will be asking Zimbabweans to come and symbolically cast their votes throughout the day," said the spokesman. "On Friday April 1 we will attempt to give the results to officials at the Zimbabwean Embassy as a way of expressing our voice, as we have no other avenue to do so."
The Mock Ballot has been planned to demonstrate the disenfranchisement of hundreds of thousands of exiled Zimbabweans in the UK.
> Barney Mthombothi, Financial Mail, South Africa, March 25: "Zimbabwe is our albatross. It is our backyard. It is the prism through which we're viewed or judged by the international community. Our support for Mr Mugabe - that's what quiet diplomacy is in a nutshell - has eroded our credibility... The elections are a non-event. They solve nothing. Democracy will have to await the departure of Mr Mugabe and his friends..."
> It started with a whisper, a mother besotted with grief at losing her son, people said afterwards. As she muttered the single word "hungry", the crowd around her shifted uneasily and looked scared. Nobody wanted a night in a Zimbabwean jail.
On a platform in front of them, their great leader Robert Mugabe was denouncing Tony Blair for "spending sleepless nights plotting how he can remove the Zimbabwe government" and telling them to "bury Blair, vote Zanu-PF". But then another woman, shaded from the sun by a large coloured umbrella, repeated the word: "Hungry."
The people of Gwanda had been gathered to hear the president tell them why his party, which has been in power throughout Zimbabwe's 25 years of independence, should be voted in for another term. Instead, they thought about the fact that the Lutheran priests who used to bring them food had been driven out by the government and a low chant of "hungry, hungry, hungry" reverberated through the crowd.
Agitated secret service men from the Central Intelligence Organisation (CIO) started to take names. The 81-year-old president, perspiring behind his large, plastic-rimmed glasses, was hustled away. But the damage was done.
The story of the Gwanda rally may prove apocryphal but by the end of last week it was being recounted in villages and bars across the country. From Matabeleland to Manicaland, the refrain of "hungry" seemed to be on everyone's lips. Along rutted tracks winding between failed maize crops, one person after another held up open-fingered palms and said "chinja" or change, the slogan of the opposition.

Appeals Court Nominee's Calls for "Ethnonationalism" are Chilling and Disqualifying
August 20, 2019 – Washington, DC – The National Council of Jewish Women (NCJW) today expressed shock and disappointment in the views expressed by Steven Menashi, nominee to the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. NCJW CEO Sheila Katz released the following statement:
"As Jews, we are taught to love your neighbor as yourself. We are stunned and deeply disturbed by Steven Menashi's calls for "ethnonationalism" and against "ethnic heterogeneity." In these words, we hear haunting echoes of cries for a master race and racial purity. America's democracy was built on huddled masses attracted to the promises of freedom and acceptance. At a time when white supremacy and domestic terrorism are rising, it is more important than ever to disavow any proponent of such intolerance and hate. Justice and equity require that the White House immediately withdraw Steven Menashi's nomination to serve a lifetime appointment on the federal bench. Anything less is simply unacceptable and would cause irreversible damage to our democracy."
The National Council of Jewish Women (NCJW) is a grassroots organization of volunteers and advocates who turn progressive ideals into action. Inspired by Jewish values, NCJW strives for social justice by improving the quality of life for women, children, and families and by safeguarding individual rights and freedoms. More information on Facebook and on Twitter at @NCJW.

Bob Senneker
If a short track late model racing legend ever came out of Michigan it would certainly be Bob Senneker. Bob has been one of the top late model drivers in the nation for nearly two decades. The Grand Rapids native started racing a Ford at the old 1/4 mile paved track in his hometown called the Speedrome in 1963. In 1964 he switched to a 1955 Chevy and his natural ability and smooth driving style became his trademark.
He would go on to capture track championships at the Grand Rapids Speedrome, Berlin Raceway, Kalamazoo Motor Speedway, and Tri-City Motor Speedway, in the 1960's. He is one of Michigan's most prolific winners in the past 25 years and has amassed about 500 feature wins.
In 1966 he ran the newly paved Berlin Raceway and was their late model champion in his 1957 Chevy. He would repeat the next two years.
He ran super modifieds in 1966 and ran consistently up front. He caught on quick in the fleet supers until he flipped the car. He immediately retired from open wheel racing.
Senneker went big time racing in 1968 by entering the "Daytona 500". His crew built a 1966 Chevelle. Bob finished 13th, in the home built car. Later that year he won a 100 lapper at Heidelberg Raceway near Pittsburgh for one of his first out of state wins. He also won the Michigan State Championship at Berlin.
He started the 1970 season by winning a 150 lapper at Heidelberg in his Chevelle. He also won the 3rd annual Glass City 200 at Toledo by two laps.
Bob ran weekly at Heidelberg in 1971 as well as hitting the big money shows. Later in the year he won the Goodyear 250 at Cayuga in Canada. Among his titles in 1972 was the US Stock Car Champion at Ohio's Tri-County track.
Bob began running a Camaro in 1974 and was a consistent winner as he won about 40 races from New York to Missouri. He started his first American Speed Association race and promptly won the Dri Power 400 at Winchester, Indiana. Since then he has won over 50 ASA shows and leads that mid-west sanction in races won.
Bob teamed up with Ed Howe in 1975 and was nearly unbeatable. Some of his big wins included another Winchester 400 and the Howard Williams Memorial in Toledo. He ran Howe's new NASCAR late model sportsman car at Martirisville, Virginia and was running in the top five when he was crashed out the race.
Bob won 21, features in 1976 including his 3rd straight Winchester 400. He won 28 features in 1977 including still another Winchester 400, and the Salem 300. Driving one of his fabled "Bluebirds" Bob won 24 features in 1978 including six ASA races including the first Milwaukee 150, a 300 lapper at 1-70 in Missouri, and the Winchester 400. He cut back his heavy weekly racing schedule and concentrated on the big specials in 1979. He only won five features, but they included one ASA race and an ARTGO race. He also tried his hand at promoting as he operated Hartford Motor Speedway that year.
In 1980 he won 15 features including five ASA wins and ended up 2nd in ASA points. His wins included the Cayuga 300, the Anderson 300, the Minnesota State Fair 300, and the Queen City 300.
Bob won the All-Pro sanctioned Birmingham 200 in Alabama in 1981. He won 10 other features that year including five ASA events including another Milwaukee 150, and the first ever ASA race at Michigan Int'l Speedway.
He won seven ASA events in 1982 including his biggest win to date, the "All-American 400" at Nashville. Again racing in primarily ASA shows he won six features in 1983. In 1984 he won 10 ASA races but lost the title at the last race when he was crashed. He limited his traveling to only ASA races and won only once in 1985. His only ASA win in 1986 was at Cayuga.
Bob Senneker has to be rated as one of the best drivers that have ever called Michigan his home state. He certainly is one of the most deserving individuals that was ever be inducted into the Michigan Motor Sports Hall of Fame.

JAPANESE RESTAURANT IN BARCELONA: TEMAKI-YA
Japanese Restaurant in Barcelona : TEMAKI-YA
To find a delicious Japanese Restaurant in Barcelona is very easy, , but do you know that the fast-food version of Japanese restaurants has also landed in our city? Quick, and something you can eat with your hands, healthy and tasty-as-hell, the Temakis, as this half-japanese half-brazilian treasure is called, have came to stay!
TEMAKI?!? What is it? What the f*** has Brazil got to do with that? Ok, I'll try to tell it quickly: A Temaki is a cone-shaped hand-rolled sushi filled with rice, salmon, tuna, vegetables, cream-cheese, avocado, or whatever else the cook might want to use to surprise you! Still can't figure it out? Don't lie! You already saw the pictures! But you see, it's irresistible, isn't it?! Delicious fast-food became popular in Brazil a few years ago - after the boom of japanese restaurants - and has been growing more and more every year, gaining market ground on traditional fast-food like hamburgers and pizzas. So, after vacations in Brazil, Carmen Pereira and Gabriel Miranda , two Brazilian that has lived in Barcelona for 20 years now, saw the opportunity of bringing the concept of the Temakerias to Europe: Healthy, quick, tasty and cheap! The japanese restaurant in Barcelona, Temaki-ya (Temaki Now) has a classic temakeria style: simple and clean, no tables - just high seats - ingredients on display, and a cozy atmosphere. For a Brazilian like me, it was like being back in Sao Paulo! I was also surprised with the variety of the menu , there are around 50 options of Temaki, and also includes others japanese specialities - don't miss the Hot-rolls. Creativity at its best! It's impossible not to find one you like (I bet you would eat at least 80% though).
So, if you're tired of the tons of mainstream japanese restaurant in Barcelona, you have to try Temaki-ya. Actually, it should be in your MUST-DO list! It's delicious, healthy, cheap and innovative! What more could you want? Go check it and give us your feedback! Where is it? At Calle Gignas, 28 (El Gotico), close to Plaza Sant Jaume! For more info check their website! There you find opening hours and extras! Almost forgot! If you like their Facebook page, you'll be updated with discounts and promotions! The most famous, for example, is that every Thursday, every temaki you buy, you get the second one for only 1 euro (as you can see at the image below)! Irresistible!
Jack!
