At UMass, Mike was a History and Political Science Dual Degree Student, in addition to working toward Departmental Honors in History, Departmental Honors in Political Science, Multidisciplinary Honors, and two undergraduate certificates in International Relations and Public Policy and Administration. He returned to UMass in Fall 2016 as a graduate student in the one-year Accelerated Master's of Public Policy Program at the UMass School of Public Policy.
As a transfer student to UMass Amherst, Elena felt that she had limited opportunities, having missed almost two years of relationship-building in the department and at the school. However, she says, "the history department, along with the career development program, helped me to achieve my dreams and current career path."
While at UMass, Nick pursued opportunities to enrich himself intellectually and culturally. He thrived in courses ranging from Latin American to LGBTQ History. Outside the classroom, Nick participated in the Shaha Diversity Theater group where he wrote and performed plays focused on issues of social justice. During the summer after his first year, he travelled to Peru to teach English to children. These experiences enhanced Nick's understanding of the world and confirmed his passion for education.
Joy converted her enthusiasm for archival research into an internship with the Sexual Minorities Archives (SMA) in Northampton, which was part of a UMass Creative Economies Initiative project directed by Professor Julio Capó Jr., History Outreach Director Dr. Jessica Johnson, and UWW Professor Mitch Boucher. For her internship, Joy categorized periodicals, created finding aids, and processed new materials into the SMA's collection.
Throughout her time at UMass, Amy took a creative, interdisciplinary approach to her study of history, seizing the opportunity to connect history with art, literature, social justice and more.

Q: Parsing JSON data from a text column in Postgres I have JSON in a file as follows:
[xyz@innolx20122 ~]$ cat cgs_test.json
{"technology":"AAA","vendor":"XXX","name":"RBNI","temporal_unit":"hour","regional_unit":"cell","dataset_metadata":"{\"name\": \"RBNI\", \"temporal_unit\": \"hour\", \"technology\": \"LTE\", \"is_dimension\": false, \"timestamp_column_pattern\": \"yyyyMMddHHmmss\", \"data_type\": \"PM\", \"source_name\": \"RBNI\", \"intervals_epoch_seconds\": [[1609941600, 1609945200]], \"identifier_column_names\": [\"CELLID\", \"CELLNAME\", \"radio_frequency_band\", \"ENODEBID\", \"ENODEBNAME\", \"SBNID\", \"SITEID\", \"SITENAME\", \"CLUSTER_PRIORITY\", \"CP_SITE\", \"IBC\", \"NETWORK_TIER\", \"SITE_TYPE\", \"T3_FLAG\", \"CLUSTERID\", \"CLUSTERNAME\", \"REGION\", \"NETWORK\"], \"vendor\": \"ZTE\", \"timestamp_column_name\": \"COLLECTTIME\", \"regional_unit\": \"cell\"}","rk":1}
{"technology":"AAA","vendor":"XXX","name":"RRCADD","temporal_unit":"hour","regional_unit":"cell","dataset_metadata":"{\"name\": \"RRCADD\", \"temporal_unit\": \"hour\", \"technology\": \"AAA\", \"is_dimension\": false, \"timestamp_column_pattern\": \"yyyyMMddHHmmss\", \"data_type\": \"PM\", \"source_name\": \"RRCADD\", \"intervals_epoch_seconds\": [[1609941600, 1609945200]], \"identifier_column_names\": [\"CELLID\", \"CELLNAME\", \"radio_frequency_band\", \"ENODEBID\", \"ENODEBNAME\", \"SBNID\", \"SITEID\", \"SITENAME\", \"CLUSTER_PRIORITY\", \"CP_SITE\", \"IBC\", \"NETWORK_TIER\", \"SITE_TYPE\", \"T3_FLAG\", \"CLUSTERID\", \"CLUSTERNAME\", \"REGION\", \"NETWORK\"], \"vendor\": \"XXX\", \"timestamp_column_name\": \"COLLECTTIME\", \"regional_unit\": \"cell\"}","rk":1}

and I have loaded this to one temp table:
create table temp_json (values text);
\copy temp_json from '/home/xyz/cgs_test.json';

Now I want to extract this data into separate columns as:
technology
vendor
name
temporal_unit
regional_unit
dataset_metadata
rk

dataset_metadata is a JSON column and other columns are strings.

A: To answer this question what I did was the following (see fiddle here):
This was quite a learning experience for me (+1 for that BTW) so I'll go through the steps in my logic and hopefully this will help you - but I'm doing it for myself really :-)
Step 1:
CREATE TABLE temp_1
(
  json_input TEXT NOT NULL
);

Step 2:
Populate it with your two records. However, your two records aren't proper JSON - they need a [ at the beginning and ] at the end in order for them to be proper JSON - so, I've put them into the INSERT at the very beginning of the process - I leave it up to the reader to experiment with what happens if you leave them out - you can put them in later in the process - see below.
There may be a way of not having to do this with a different JSON function - beyond my pay grade I'm afraid - but I'd appreciate any suggestions for improvements.
INSERT INTO temp_1 VALUES  -- strings copied from the question
('{"technology":"AAA","vendor":"XXX","name":"RBNI","temporal_unit":"hour","regional_unit":"cell","dataset_metadata":"{\"name\": \"RBNI\", \"temporal_unit\": \"hour\", \"technology\": \"LTE\", \"is_dimension\": false, \"timestamp_column_pattern\": \"yyyyMMddHHmmss\", \"data_type\": \"PM\", \"source_name\": \"RBNI\", \"intervals_epoch_seconds\": [[1609941600, 1609945200]], \"identifier_column_names\": [\"CELLID\", \"CELLNAME\", \"radio_frequency_band\", \"ENODEBID\", \"ENODEBNAME\", \"SBNID\", \"SITEID\", \"SITENAME\", \"CLUSTER_PRIORITY\", \"CP_SITE\", \"IBC\", \"NETWORK_TIER\", \"SITE_TYPE\", \"T3_FLAG\", \"CLUSTERID\", \"CLUSTERNAME\", \"REGION\", \"NETWORK\"], \"vendor\": \"ZTE\", \"timestamp_column_name\": \"COLLECTTIME\", \"regional_unit\": \"cell\"}","rk":1}'),
('{"technology":"AAA","vendor":"XXX","name":"RRCADD","temporal_unit":"hour","regional_unit":"cell","dataset_metadata":"{\"name\": \"RRCADD\", \"temporal_unit\": \"hour\", \"technology\": \"AAA\", \"is_dimension\": false, \"timestamp_column_pattern\": \"yyyyMMddHHmmss\", \"data_type\": \"PM\", \"source_name\": \"RRCADD\", \"intervals_epoch_seconds\": [[1609941600, 1609945200]], \"identifier_column_names\": [\"CELLID\", \"CELLNAME\", \"radio_frequency_band\", \"ENODEBID\", \"ENODEBNAME\", \"SBNID\", \"SITEID\", \"SITENAME\", \"CLUSTER_PRIORITY\", \"CP_SITE\", \"IBC\", \"NETWORK_TIER\", \"SITE_TYPE\", \"T3_FLAG\", \"CLUSTERID\", \"CLUSTERNAME\", \"REGION\", \"NETWORK\"], \"vendor\": \"XXX\", \"timestamp_column_name\": \"COLLECTTIME\", \"regional_unit\": \"cell\"}","rk":1}');

Then, turn the strings into JSON as follows - this can be done in bulk:
--
--  This is to turn the "ordinary" strings into JSON per record. If this isn't
--  done, the process will fail further down. Will work for an arbitrary number
--  of records
--

UPDATE temp_1
SET json_input = '[' || json_input || ']';

Step 3:
Create another table:
CREATE TABLE temp_2
(
  final_json JSON NOT NULL
);

Step 4:
Populate this by:
INSERT INTO temp_2 SELECT json_input::JSON FROM temp_1;

The ::JSON cast is necessary, otherwise the INSERT will fail as json_input is of type TEXT.
Then, clear down `temp_1':
--
--  Clear down temp_1.
--  This is needed for next batch, otherwise you'll have strings beginning
--  with '[[' and then '[[[' (endings same with multiple ']'s) and so on!
--

DELETE FROM temp_1;

Step 5:
Create a table to hold the data:
CREATE TABLE json_table
(
  technology TEXT,
  vendor TEXT,
  name TEXT,
  temporal_unit TEXT,
  regional_unit TEXT,
  dataset_metadata JSON,
  rk SMALLINT
);

Step 6:
From here, I obtained this method to populate the table:
INSERT INTO json_table
SELECT (json_populate_recordset(null::json_table, final_json)).* FROM temp_2;

There's another way shown in the fiddle - from here - YMMV?
Step 7 - final check:
SELECT * FROM json_table;

Result:
technology  vendor  name    temporal_unit   regional_unit   dataset_metadata    rk
AAA XXX RBNI    hour    cell    "{\"name\": \"RBNI\", \"temporal_unit\": \"hour\", \"technology\": \"LTE\", \"is_dimension\": false, \"timestamp_column_pattern\": \"yyyyMMddHHmmss\", \"data_type\": \"PM\", \"source_name\": \"RBNI\", \"intervals_epoch_seconds\": [[1609941600, 1609945200]], \"identifier_column_names\": [\"CELLID\", \"CELLNAME\", \"radio_frequency_band\", \"ENODEBID\", \"ENODEBNAME\", \"SBNID\", \"SITEID\", \"SITENAME\", \"CLUSTER_PRIORITY\", \"CP_SITE\", \"IBC\", \"NETWORK_TIER\", \"SITE_TYPE\", \"T3_FLAG\", \"CLUSTERID\", \"CLUSTERNAME\", \"REGION\", \"NETWORK\"], \"vendor\": \"ZTE\", \"timestamp_column_name\": \"COLLECTTIME\", \"regional_unit\": \"cell\"}"   1
AAA XXX RRCADD  hour    cell    "{\"name\": \"RRCADD\", \"temporal_unit\": \"hour\", \"technology\": \"AAA\", \"is_dimension\": false, \"timestamp_column_pattern\": \"yyyyMMddHHmmss\", \"data_type\": \"PM\", \"source_name\": \"RRCADD\", \"intervals_epoch_seconds\": [[1609941600, 1609945200]], \"identifier_column_names\": [\"CELLID\", \"CELLNAME\", \"radio_frequency_band\", \"ENODEBID\", \"ENODEBNAME\", \"SBNID\", \"SITEID\", \"SITENAME\", \"CLUSTER_PRIORITY\", \"CP_SITE\", \"IBC\", \"NETWORK_TIER\", \"SITE_TYPE\", \"T3_FLAG\", \"CLUSTERID\", \"CLUSTERNAME\", \"REGION\", \"NETWORK\"], \"vendor\": \"XXX\", \"timestamp_column_name\": \"COLLECTTIME\", \"regional_unit\": \"cell\"}"   1

A couple of thoughts:

*

*Your dataset_metadata field doesn't appear to be "proper" JSON - maybe a suitable REGEXP_REPLACE and/or a CAST might be in order? I don't know the process by which you get your /home/xyz/cgs_test.json file - but it may be worth looking at how the record is generated - ideally, you should correct any issues as early in the pipeline as possible.

*I don't know your exact circumstances, but you should carefully consider the advice here - you might want to hive your metadata off into a separate table with a FOREIGN KEY connecting it to the parent record?

A: COPY is not intended to populate each line to column as-is. It will break some line formatting in nested json encode.
Instead of COPY you may use pg_read_file admin function to read the file  and then split this text per-line:
create temp table temp_json as
select v::json
 from regexp_split_to_table(
     trim(pg_read_file('/tmp/json'), E'\n'),
 '[\n\r]+') as v;

So we see that given JSON is correct. Let's reformat as needed:
select v->>'technology',
v->>'vendor',
v->>'name',
v->>'temporal_unit',
v->>'regional_unit',
v->>'dataset_metadata',
v->>'rk'
from temp_json ;

-[ RECORD 1 ]--
?column? | AAA
?column? | XXX
?column? | RBNI
?column? | hour
?column? | cell
?column? | {"name": "RBNI", "temporal_unit": "hour", "technology": "LTE", "is_dimension": false, "timestamp_column_pattern": "yyyyMMddHHmmss", "data_type": "PM", "source_name": "RBNI", "intervals_epoch_seconds": [[1609941600, 1609945200]], "identifier_column_names": ["CELLID", "CELLNAME", "radio_frequency_band", "ENODEBID", "ENODEBNAME", "SBNID", "SITEID", "SITENAME", "CLUSTER_PRIORITY", "CP_SITE", "IBC", "NETWORK_TIER", "SITE_TYPE", "T3_FLAG", "CLUSTERID", "CLUSTERNAME", "REGION", "NETWORK"], "vendor": "ZTE", "timestamp_column_name": "COLLECTTIME", "regional_unit": "cell"}
?column? | 1
-[ RECORD 2 ]-
?column? | AAA
?column? | XXX
?column? | RRCADD
?column? | hour
?column? | cell
?column? | {"name": "RRCADD", "temporal_unit": "hour", "technology": "AAA", "is_dimension": false, "timestamp_column_pattern": "yyyyMMddHHmmss", "data_type": "PM", "source_name": "RRCADD", "intervals_epoch_seconds": [[1609941600, 1609945200]], "identifier_column_names": ["CELLID", "CELLNAME", "radio_frequency_band", "ENODEBID", "ENODEBNAME", "SBNID", "SITEID", "SITENAME", "CLUSTER_PRIORITY", "CP_SITE", "IBC", "NETWORK_TIER", "SITE_TYPE", "T3_FLAG", "CLUSTERID", "CLUSTERNAME", "REGION", "NETWORK"], "vendor": "XXX", "timestamp_column_name": "COLLECTTIME", "regional_unit": "cell"}
?column? | 1

You could also cast nested JSON in dataset_metadata to JSON datatype and process it further as you wish. For example,
select v->>'name',
  cast((v->>'dataset_metadata') as json)->'vendor' as meta_vendor
  from temp_json ;
-[ RECORD 1 ]-------
?column?    | RBNI
meta_vendor | "ZTE"
-[ RECORD 2 ]-------
?column?    | RRCADD
meta_vendor | "XXX"

OLATHE ~ Three Olathe North High School students recently achieved a perfect score on the ACT exam: Brian Beach, junior; Wade Boohar, freshman; and Anchal Gupta, junior. Nationally, while the actual number of students earning a composite score of 36 varies from year to year, less than one-tenth of 1 percent of students taking the ACT earn a top score. These make seven perfect ACT scores in the Olathe School District for this school year.
"This is exciting news and we are very proud of our students who received perfect scores on the ACT," Olathe North Principal Jason Herman said. "They represent the hard work ethic and preparation we want for all students at Olathe North. Our staff, students and community congratulate Wade, Brian and Anchal."
Beach is involved in cross country, track and field, orchestra and is a member of the National Honor Society.
Boohar is involved in student council, DECA, debate and forensics, Scholar's Bowl, Science Olympiad and is a member of the Spanish National Honor Society.
Gupta is involved in debate, DECA, Olathe Youth Court, dance team and is a member of the National Honor Society.
Senior Academic & Military Signing Ceremony Information
FAQ's about the Academic & Military Signing Ceremony
What is the Academic & Military Signing Ceremony?
Ten years ago, the faculty and staff of Olathe North decided that we needed to honor the students who excel in the classroom and receive scholarships to attend post-secondary institutions based upon their academic talents and performance, just like we do those students who receive scholarships for post-secondary institutions for athletics.
What students are eligible to participate in the ceremony?
Seniors who are in good standing with Olathe North and on-track to graduate may participate in the ceremony if they meet one of the three criteria listed below. He or she needs to be:
Planning to attend a 2-year or 4-year college, university, or technical school which has offered them a scholarship based on Academic performance and ability, not financial need.Or be
Planning to attend a "Selective Admissions" college or university which does not offer scholarships based upon academic performance.Generally, these are schools like Stanford, Duke, Northwestern, the Ivy League, etc.Or be
Planning to enlist in one of the Armed Services (Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, or the Reserves), upon graduation from Olathe North.
My student fits into one of those three categories. How does he/she sign up to be a part of the program?
The first step is to fill out the Google Form that is located at this web address: http://tinyurl.com/ONhsasc20182
There are a few other tasks to take care of, but this is where he or she will need to start. the registration deadline is April 30.
Will the students be informed about this ceremony?
The students will have the opportunity to visit with Mr. Belske during Halftime A on Wednesday and Thursday, March 28 & 29 in the Auditorium. There will be a short presentation and an opportunity to ask questions. While attendance at one of these meetings is not required, it is highly encouraged.
When and where does the ceremony take place?
The ceremony will be during an all-school assembly in the North Gym on Thursday, May 3, 2018, at 10 am. More specific details regarding parking and other items will be mailed home to the parents of those students participating prior to the ceremony.
If you have other questions or for more information, please e-mail Mr. Richard Belske at rbelskeon@olatheschools.org

One to One Technology Update
High School Technology Parent Updates
District Continues Work on 1:1 High School Technology Initiative
District staff continue to work toward implementing a 1:1 high school technology initiative at the remaining four high schools, following the launch of a 1:1 program at Olathe West High School. Making sure that the launch of a vital technology initiative is successful, district staff has developed 10 assurances that staff are working to meet before the scheduled launch of a 1:1 initiative at the remaining four high schools. Some of these assurances include the implementation of vital infrastructure, wireless accessibility, professional development, device determination, among others.
District staff are still working through some of these assurances. We continue to learn from Olathe West students and staff as they engage in high levels of learning using 1:1 devices. Their experiences, both positive and negative, allow us to continue creating an even better experience behind the scenes as we prepare for our next deployments. Once a timeframe has been determined for Olathe North, we will communicate with parents.
Thank you for your patience as we work to implement a successful 1:1 technology initiative at our high schools.

City of Olathe Safe Routes to School Sidewalk Construction Project Could Effect Students That Do Not Park On Campus.
As you may or may not be aware, the City has recently begun a sidewalk construction project, adding sidewalks along streets that currently do not have them in neighborhoods around Olathe's schools. As part of this project, sidewalk is being added along the west side of Curtis Street between Prairie Street and Whitney Street west of Olathe North High School. Sidewalk will also be added along the north side of Whitney Street between Curtis Street and Nelson Road north of the high school. This construction is set to begin next Monday, March 12th and will continue until the beginning of May. The Contractor will start on Curtis street then move to Whitney Street.
Construction hours for this project are limited to 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., however, the contractor has been advised that it may be necessary to reduce construction operations during peak traffic in the mornings and afternoons.
When construction begins on Curtis Street, street parking will be restricted to the east side of the street to allow space for the Contractor to complete construction of the sidewalks on the west side. Myself and the Contractor will do our best to contact anyone whose car is parked on the west side, but if we cannot reach anyone and the vehicles are impeding construction progress, the vehicles may be moved via tow truck to the other side of the street, to a cross street, etc. to allow construction to continue. The City will bear the cost of any towed vehicles, but the vehicle owners may have to ask for assistance in finding where their vehicle was moved.
We are requesting that students not park on Curtis Street once construction begins there. We will be replacing driveways on the west side of the street and these homeowners will have to park along the east side of the street during construction. Because of this, we would like to reserve the east side of the street for the homeowners on Curtis Street to use. Notices will be provided to all of the homeowners along Curtis Street notifying them of this, however I need your assistance in informing the students that may currently park in these locations.

Olathe North is the 2018 Kansas 6A State Wrestling Champions.
Congratulations to Coach Carroll and the 2018 Olathe North Wrestling Team. They came home with the 2018 Kansas 6A State Wrestling Championship. This is the first time, not only in school history, but a first for the Olathe School District. The boys showed a great amount of maturity in having to deal with things they couldn't control. Olathe North had 4 individual state champions in Keegan Slyter at 126lbs, Jevon Parrish at 138lbs, Javier Contreras 145lbs and Terrell Garraway at 170lbs. We also had three other placers with Joe Triscornia placed 6th at 106lbs, Devin Stoker placed 6th at 154lbs and Ryan Huck placed 5th at 185lbs. The reason Olathe North won the tournament is out of the 14 boys that qualified for the state tournament 12 of them scored points in the meet which is the reason they can be called the Kansas 6A State Wrestling Champions. These boys worked extremely hard and deserve this honor.

Q: Processing 50 GB of JSON into Pandas Dataframe I have about 50 GB of 6,000 JSON files which I am currently loading into a pandas dataframe using the following method. (the format_pandas function sets up my pandas data frame while reading each JSON row):
path = '/Users/shabina.rayan/Desktop/Jupyter/Scandanavia Weather/Player  Data'
records = []
for filename in glob.glob(os.path.join(path, '*.JSON')):
    file = Path(filename)

        j = json.load(json_data)
        format_pandas(j)
pandas_json = json.dumps(records)
df = pd.read_json(pandas_json,orient="records")

As can be guessed, this takes an excruciatingly long time to process my data. Does anyone have any suggestions on any other way I can process 50 GB of JSON files and visualize/analyze it?

A: Dump it into Elasticsearch and run queries as required.


This is a broadleaf evergreen, large shrub or small tree to about 8-12 tall and 6-8 ft wide. The branches are twisted with dark mahogany bark and leaves that are simple, alternate, leathery, elliptic to ovate in shape and a glossy gray-green. This Manzanita flowers pale pink, bell-like, in small branched clusters that changes to fruit somewhat tan-orange. This was a chance hybrid found in the demonstration garden of Native Sons Nursery, Arroyo Grande, Calif. It is believed to have resulted from a cross of A. manzanita 'Dr. Hurd' [white flowered} with A. densiflora 'Sentinel' [pink flowered]. It was named in memory of Austin Griffiths, who, according to the those at Native Sons Nursery, "guided us in our early years and opened our imaginations to the wonders of horticulture. it is a beloved and reliable garden favorite.
I have planted this plant a year ago... and have to say that this is one of the slower growing plants! Had I known, I'd have gone with at least a 5 gallon plant. However, the leaves are very pretty.


Founded by Sir Neville Marriner in 1958 and now under the baton of Joshua Bell, the Academy of St Martin in the Fields is one of Britain's leading chamber orchestras. The Academy, along with Bell, are Classic FM's first ever Artist in Residence.
Sir Neville Marriner founded the Academy of St Martin in the Fields with leading London musicians in 1958, directing it from the violin. At the time he 'had no intention of giving any concerts or continuing forever'.
However, demand for the Academy grew following its first concert at the Church of St Martin in the Fields and its debut recording two years later. The Orchestra's size and repertoire also grew, and Sir Neville was forced to take up the baton.
Today the Academy performs in combinations ranging from a chamber group to symphony orchestra, but it has never lost its intimate air. This has helped to establish it as one of the world's finest chamber orchestras.
Collaborations in recent years have included Murray Perahia, Joshua Bell, Julia Fischer, Julian Rachlin, Janine Jansen and Anthony Marwood.
In 2009, its 50th anniversary year, the Academy toured throughout Europe, the USA and Canada.
The ensemble's name comes from Trafalgar Square's St Martin in the Fields church, where the orchestra gave its first concert on November 13, 1959.

An engraved bench and lighted pool will honor each of the 184 persons who died in the September 11 attack on the Pentagon as a hijacked plane crashed into the building, Defense Department officials said yesterday.
These will the "light benches."
"The memorial had to be like no other memorial … because September 11 was like no other day," said Julie Beckman, of New York City, who designed the memorial with fellow New Yorker Keith Kaseman.
The memorial commemorates the 125 people who died inside the Pentagon, as well as the 64 aboard the airliner but not including the five terrorists.
Each bench, made from aluminum, will be engraved with the name of a victim and set on a concrete pad to stabilize them. Underneath each, a lighted pool will glow. The benches will be positioned according to age: from the youngest victim, age 3, to the oldest, age 71. The benches' positions will parallel the hijackers' flight path.
The two-acre memorial will sit about 160 feet from the Pentagon, close to the site of the plane crash. The site will be filled with clusters of trees throughout to provide shading and intimacy.
The construction of the memorial is expected to be completed by the second anniversary of the attacks.
The victims' family members, some of whom were involved in the selection process for the design, applauded the choice.
"The thing I liked about it was, it was a collective memorial and an individual memorial, yet it told the story of what happened on that day," said Jim Laychak, who served on the victims' family steering committee. His brother, David Laychak, 40, a civilian budget analyst for the Army, died in the attack.
The announcement of the Pentagon memorial follows the selection last week of the design to rebuild the site of the World Trade Center in New York.
The Pentagon memorial is expected to cost between $4.9 million and $7.4 million, and will be funded by donations. Taxpayer funds will not be used for the construction.
The Pentagon Memorial Project was started a month after the attack. The project is being spearheaded by the Army Corps of Engineers, the Department of Defense, the National Building Museum in the District, and a steering committee of the family members of the victims. The Pentagon's renovation team will help oversee the project.
The groups visited such places as the Lincoln and Vietnam Veterans memorials, discussed potential locations, and in April approved one just outside the crash site.
The contest received proposals from every state and from more than 50 nations worldwide. The design was chosen from about 1,100 entries.
Judges include a family member of a victim; two former secretaries of defense; Lynne V. Cheney, the vice president's wife; architects; an artist; and Carolyn Shelton, wife of Gen. Henry H. Shelton, retired chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Mr. Laychak said in August that the families have been closely involved in the memorial process. The committee is made up of about a dozen family members.
"This is important for us," he said. "We want something that honors our loved ones and is something all Americans can be proud of."

Actor Stephen Amell Uses Avengers: Endgame Meme for Arrow Teaser
By Alexa Simmons October 4, 2019No Comments
Stephen Amell plays the lead character, aka Oliver Queen, on the TV show Arrow. Stephen Amell is popular for teasing upcoming plot, characters, and scenes on social media. However, the actor decided to set the bar high by teasing his death in the next Arrowverse crossover. Arrowverse is now facing a crisis on Infinite Earths. Rumor has it (Spoiler alert) that the crossover will feature several notable character deaths. Many fans have been guessing whether Stephen Amell's Green Arrow will still be alive. The final season of Arrow is drawing closer, and the lead character's death will break many hearts.
Arrow Teaser Using Meme
There are no easy days on the crossover.
The TV show Arrow is currently filming the Arrowverse's "Crisis on Infinite Earths" crossover. Stephen Amell just happened to tease the Arrow fans via a post on Twitter. On Wednesday, Arrow's lead character Oliver Queen aka Amell took to Twitter to share a recent behind-the-scenes photo, which showed him holding the Infinity Gauntlet from Avengers: Endgame. Stephen Amell inserted the caption on the photo saying, "there are no easy days on the crossover." From the given facts for "Crisis", Oliver will be sacrificing himself to save the multiverse – the meme showcased a pretty significant meaning. Though this isn't an indication that Stephen Amell filmed Oliver Queen's death scene. Some Arrow fans began speculating Oliver's death scene and the facts surrounding it. The notion of Oliver's demise has hung over Arrow for months now after The Monitor (LaMonica Garrett) made a deal with Oliver concerning the coming "Crisis."
Stephen Amell's Arrowverse Plot
Crisis on Infinite Earths is going Good.
"It's what I want," Amell said of Oliver's ending this August. "I pitched it for a very long time. It's what I want, though concurrently, that doesn't mean that there aren't any surprises along the way. I was floored when I got the pitch for the crossover. I don't see it coming — nobody sees it coming. It's going to be so rad."
"Crisis" is set to span across five nights of television, involving Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, Legends of Tomorrow, and Batwoman. Also slated to appear in the event are characters from Black Lightning, Smallville star Tom Welling and Erica Durance, legendary Robin actor Burt Ward, and prolific Batman voice actor Kevin Conroy as Bruce Wayne.

– wulkaniczny masyw górski, krótki łańcuch w Japonii, biegnący na granicy dwóch prefektur: Yamagata i Miyagi. Najwyższy szczyt masywu nazywa się Kumano (1841 m).

Dzięki wykorzystaniu naturalnych zalet tego obszaru – bogatego w gorące źródła (głównie siarkowe) – polegającego na wybudowaniu licznych tras narciarskich, masyw tworzy ośrodek sportowo-wypoczynkowy o ogólnej nazwie Zaō Onsen.

W części masywu tworzącej płaskowyż Zaō występuje interesujące zjawisko "śnieżnych potworów", które w rzeczywistości są drzewami pokrytymi zmrożonym śniegiem. Zjawisko to występuje pomiędzy grudniem a marcem i jest powodowane napływem zimnych mas powietrza znad Syberii.

Jedną z atrakcji turystycznych jest jezioro Okama powstałe w kraterze, zwane także "pięciokolorowym bagnem", ponieważ zmienia kolory w zależności od pogody. Krater został utworzony w latach 20. XVIII wieku przez erupcję wulkanu, a jego średnica wynosi 350 m.

Everyone experiences stops in breathing every now and then. This does not just take place to adults yet to babies. This breathing pattern is called apnea. Although this is completely normal to some, it might also be connected to some health and wellness conditions that ought to be a reason for issue particularly when it happens to your child. Remaining in this kind of dilemma, you might opt to seek for the aid of infant rest apnea screens.
Words apnea has its origin from a Greek word which indicates "without wind." It is the clinical term made use of to describe the occasional cessation of breathing of an individual. Even though it is regular, it may also be a signs and symptom of something a lot more serious that is health and wellness related.
Essentially there are three kinds of apnea: obstructive, combined as well as central. Obstructive apnea is most typical in infants as well as kids. It is triggered by obstructions in the air passage such as adenoids and enlarged tonsils. This is fairly unsafe specifically for children because it usually happens throughout bedtime. And also as infants, they still can't express whether they are already experiencing symptoms of the condition.
Signs of this sort of apnea include snoring, labored breathing, wheezing for air, and also changes in color. The principal sign of obstructive apnea in babies is restlessness.
An additional kind of apnea is central apnea. Central apnea is extremely rare in adults yet fairly typical in babies especially those that were born prematurely.
The third sort of apnea is called combined apnea. This problem is the combination of obstructive apnea and also main apnea. This is specifically really common in infants. It could take place at any time, whether awake or asleep.
When your baby is born, he or she is immediately reviewed for any kind of troubles in wellness like problems in breathing. If apnea is identified, the physician can recommend various ways to aid you check your child one of which is with the use of baby rest apnea monitor.
There are a whole lot of different baby sleep apnea keeps an eye on each with various features. In selecting an infant rest apnea screen, there are certain functions that the gadget have to have to make certain the correct surveillance of your infant.
This function is a have to for the device that you will pick because no apnea monitor is 100 percent accurate in discovering cessation of breathing. This will work as a backup in case the apnea display falls short to detect apnea because it will likewise show up in the heart price of the infant.
Even if you are not in the very same room with the baby, a remote display will certainly inform you if anything goes wrong. Last but not the least, the device must also be geared up with an Air Conditioning power for charging and also powering the tool.

Net Neutrality Repeal Could Stifle Innovation
by Sole Møller
January 31, 2018 6 mins
Last December, the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) decided to end net neutrality. Internet service providers (ISPs) can now slow down Internet speed for certain websites and charge companies to prioritize their traffic in "fast lanes". For experts, throttling Internet speeds could not only lead to unfair competition but also stifle innovation in autonomous vehicles, IoT and cryptocurrencies.
Jeremy Gillula is senior staff technologist at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, an ardent supporter of net neutrality.
You could come up with a killer idea that can save society, but if you have to go to each Internet provider and ask them to let your traffic go through, you'll be at an unfair disadvantage if you don't pay for fast speed. That's a danger to innovation.
ISPs on the other hand argue that this will allow them to invest in better infrastructure leading to faster Internet for everyone.
Venkatesh Narayanamurti, IT professor at Harvard School of Engineering explains:
It could be good because the US lags behind many European and Asian countries when it comes to high-speed Internet. However, while dominant companies like Netflix and Amazon will be able to pay for it, how will smaller companies?
Service provider Comcast believes net neutrality should be repealed, stating that ISPs could prioritize instant communication to make self-driving cars safer. However, though autonomous vehicles will generate terabytes of data every day, industry experts point out that most of the data is being processed in the vehicle itself—otherwise a spotty reception could cause accidents.
According to Gillula,
For safety reasons you don't want autonomous vehicles to be on the Internet so someone can scan and detect them. You want them to be on their own dedicated network. And in that case you don't have to worry about net neutrality rules applying.
Vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication typically uses a bandwidth called DSRC to exchange data wirelessly between cars and their surroundings. Several car manufacturers such as General Motors, Toyota and Renault are either already using it or will do so soon. If ISPs gain control of the unlicensed spectrum that DSRC runs on, as they've expressed interest in, they could then decide to block V2V communication, slow it down unless they're being paid or decide to use the spectrum for something entirely different.
As more and more of our devices become smart and connected to the Internet, ISPs could decide to slow down the use of specific home gadgets.
Comcast has announced it is working on its own smart home platform. For Gillula, it would clearly have an incentive to prioritize its own gadgets over those of competitors.
If you have a new product and all of a sudden Comcast decides that it wants to discriminate against a certain type of traffic, then suddenly your IoT device might not work anymore.
In the grand scheme of things, the amount of data that IoT devices transmit is minuscule and isn't being transferred over the Internet but rather on private networks. For Alfonso Velosa, IoT analyst for Gartner, the biggest issue would be if the volume of data grows rapidly.
Right now there are few enterprises that have more than 1,000 IoT devices, but moving forward it could be in the tens of thousands and that's where the volume of data could impact it.
The future popularity of cryptocurrencies will decide how much of an impact the repeal of net neutrality will have. If digital assets take off they will generate more traffic which give ISPs an incentive to charge for faster transactions, and decide to ban access to crypto exchanges. Cryptocurrencies rely on peer-to-peer transactions and ISPs have a history of blocking traffic for sites like BitTorrent.
Gillula states:
ISPs like Comcast and AT&T won't do that, but a local Internet provider could decide to limit access to the dark web. And if you live in an area where that's the only provider, you don't have much of a recourse.
The different cryptocurrencies exchanges could also be forced to pay for faster Internet to handle large quantities of transactions. That could lead to decide which cryptocurrencies succeed and which die.
For Martin von Haller Grønbaek, IT lawyer for Bird & Bird specializing in blockchain technology, there could be a silver lining.
If traffic is slowed down because cryptocurrencies are not paying for priority, it would have a negative effect. On the other hand, it could also give them an incentive to create alternative systems.
It's that kind of innovation that have put cryptocurrencies on the map anyway.

Timothée Chalamet & Taylor Russell: "Love to death! – Technikart
November 10, 2022 by Donald Jackson
At 26, Timothée Chalamet is on top of the world. He turns in the most exciting films of the moment, panics social networks and redefines the codes of masculinity. In full promotion of poisonous and sublime Bones and alltwice awarded at Venice, we met him in London, in the company of the revelation of the film, Taylor Russell.
The advertisements and Warner agents had warned us, Timothée Chalamet is incredibly cool, an ultra-talented, simple and modest young guy. A star, what! While filming the sequel to Dunes takes place between Budapest, Abu Dhabi, Jordan and Italy, Timothée is in London for a promo day for Bones and allwhere it is a question of mad love and… cannibals, a black diamond signed Luca Guadagnino, which Timothée produced.
At the top of the world at only 26 years old, Timothée Chalamet offers himself a faultless, refuses the big disembodied machines made in Hollywood and seems to follow the advice that Leonardo DiCaprio gave him on the set of the amazing don't look up, cosmic denial : "No hard drugs and no superhero movies. » In ten years, Timothée worked with Christopher Nolan (Interstellar), his friend Luca Guadagnino who propelled him into the stratosphere with Call me by your NameGreta Gerwig (Lady Bird and The Daughters of Doctor March)Woody Allen (A rainy day in New York), Scott Cooper (the western Hostile with Christian Bale) or Wes Anderson (The French Dispatch). It is no longer a filmo but a hunting board, moreover five of his films have been nominated for the Oscar for Best Picture… Moreover, with his green eyes, his rebellious curls, his angular jaw, his slender silhouette teenager and his stylish costumes, he elegantly mixes masculine and feminine codes, becomes the representative of an uninhibited masculinity, to the delight of a generation that seeks to deconstruct deleterious stereotypes between genres. On the Venice red carpet, he crushed the competition and ignited the networks with his open-back jumpsuit, in a lamé fabric and knit, made with metallic threads, designed by Haider Ackermann.
In Luca Guadagnino's new film, Timothée Chalamet embodies an "Eater", a cannibal who completely devours his victims, " bones and all »… For his role, he made himself a rebellious redneck look, improbable mule cut, dyed hair, ripped jeans. With the revelation Taylor Russell, he crosses desert landscapes in the heart of rural America, in search of prey and above all love.
In London the interview takes place in the company of the Canadian Taylor Russell, discovered in the series Falling Skiesthen in the nanar Escape Game. When he sees me with my Marvin Gaye t-shirt, Timothée lets out a thunderous "Oh man, what a cool t-shirt! » and begins to sing loudly "What's going oooooo…" Let's go !
"I MADE MY CHARACTER WEAKER, VULNERABLE, LESS CONFIDENT, MUCH LESS ALPHA MALE. » – TIMOTHY
More than a cannibal film, can we consider Bones and all like a crazy love story?
Timothy: It seems obvious to me that the two main characters live hand to mouth, they break the law, they are wildly in love, they have no money: so yes, it looks like mad love. It is even beyond mad, passionate love; they're safe with each other, they trust each other completely, they support each other, they're real, it's pure love, very mature.
How does your generation view crazy love, love without judgment? And do you think there is a demand among young viewers for these kinds of stories?
Taylor: This generation is really smart and they want sincere, authentic, original works.
Is it hard to play mad love?
Taylor: Timmy has known Luca well since Call me by your Name, as well as the producers. They are like a family whereas I was the newcomer. Timmy immediately made me feel at ease, as if I was part of this beautiful family. It's very important on a set, to feel accepted, loved. Timmy has been a rock to me. He is a generous actor, but he is also and above all a generous person, with a very big heart. Qualities that you don't find all the time, I think…
The film takes place in the 1980s, in a world without the Internet, but it talks about today's youth, isolated, abused, abandoned or mistreated by adults, youth in search of carekindness and love.
Timothy: I hadn't thought of that, but it's interesting. I will speak on my behalf. The Covid epidemic has hit our generation hard, it has isolated it socially. But there is also global warming, world conflicts, inflation, nutritional problems… I have the impression that young people see this old world dying. They are isolated. Like you said, Bones and all captures the essence of it all, even if it's oddly a cannibal movie. I really agree with you, there is something absolutely contemporary in this quest of the two characters from the 1980s, in this urgency to live despite everything.
How was the filming?
Taylor: We shot in Ohio, Kentucky, Nebraska… We shot for 48 days, in April 2021.
FOOD IN THE USA_
Bones and all offers Timothée Chalamet a wild role before playing a young Willy Wonka then Paul Atreides in the sequel to Dune.
Do you like horror movies?
Timothy: To be completely honest,….

Loving caring funny since of humar.
Hello. I'm 47, been divorced for 8 years now. Looking for someone to start a relationship with.
Mother of 3 grown up kids. I adopted my 2 grandsons. I have 8 almost 9 grandchildren. I love life. Any questions.


….patient safety is not recession proof!! I use to think that professionals in the business of taking care of the sick are not affected by the economic downturns. While healthcare may experience the impact much later than most businesses, the survey conducted by ISMP has shown the trickle effects of the recession in our industry and weakened patient safety net.
In healthcare, facilities everywhere are cutting back, patients are delaying treatments until they are much sicker, patient care staff are cut back, there is a hiring freeze, we are experiencing shortage on equipment and medications due to purchasing cutbacks, and the list goes on.To make matters worse, economists predict the worst may be yet to come as reimbursement tightens and financial burdens of patients requiring treatment worsens. Ok, I get that leaders in many healthcare organizations are required to make the cuts to financially survive, but I would like to believe that these same leaders will fight and plan to maintain patient safety in doing so and not at the expense of it.
On the flip side, I can't help but empathize with nursing colleagues who are dealing with the cuts. The pressures to perform under these working conditions can only lead to poor outcomes. Nurses are known to be resourceful and we can always find ways to carry out our tasks and responsibilities and not put the patients at risk. Gone are the days when working fast is often perceived as being efficient. We are humans and not perfect.Under these circumstances, let us not forget that safety checks and systems are in place for a reason. So for our own protection and for our patient's safety, let's take the time to do it right, after all our actions are the only thing we can still control.

Preserve centers for those with disabilities
Susan Jennings / Published: September 8, 2018
This is an open letter to citizens of the commonwealth, elected leaders, leaders of faith communities and leaders of the medical community.
My interest in writing is because of our son, Joey, 27, and because in the coming years, there will be a flood of autistic young adults leaving high school, who will be denied critically needed services as adults because of an outdated, unrealistic "deinstitutionalization" ideology.
In July 2016, at age 25, the youngest of our four children was admitted to White Haven State Developmental Center, a state-owned and operated intermediate care facility (ICF) offering residential treatment services for individuals unable to care for themselves and whose care is beyond the capacities of their families.
There was no question that Joey was eligible for admission. His diagnosis of intellectual disability, autism, and co-morbid psychiatric disorders, our family's struggle to maintain his health and safety at home and his discharge from three community group home systems and five psychiatric wards in the space of only three years made him eligible.
To gain admission for our son at White Haven State Center, we were directed by Joey's social worker to the Pennsylvania Court system. Joey's admission was opposed by the Commonwealth's Office of Developmental Programs, (ODP), which has a policy of "closed admissions" to the state's four ICF programs. Being forced as a matter of policy to go through the court system to gain admission to the services Joey desperately needed cost us thousands of dollars and worry and heartache as Joey languished in the wrong environments, exposed to harm.
The policy of "closed admissions" was adopted without legislative or public participation. Until our son's severe unmet care needs drove us to seek help, we were unaware of the policy — or even the ICF programs. This policy violates the rights of families. This policy also violates the Supreme Court Olmstead tenet, as written by Justice Ruth Ginsberg, that "Each disabled person is entitled to treatment in the most integrated setting possible for that person — recognizing on a case-by-case basis that setting may be an institution."
The state agency charged with the health and safety of the commonwealth's at-risk citizens is implementing policies aimed to weaken and dismantle the public ICF programs. The ODP mission is to downsize, consolidate and close our state's facilities for people who cannot care for themselves. Hamburg Center has been recently dismantled over the objections of the families/guardians and at the very worst time for our disabled population.
The waiting list for services grows ever longer (over 13,000) and a whole new generation of autistic young adults with severe behavioral challenges are left to languish in psychiatric wards and even in jails because they have no appropriate place to go and are denied the choice of ICF care.
I ask for your help for our at-risk family members with disabilities. Please join with me in preserving the option of state-operated ICF programs — White Haven State Center, Ebensburg State Center, Selinsgrove State Center, and Polk State Center.

Lock in a great price for The Trawangan Resort – rated 8.3 by recent guests!
I liked the ambience of the resort. Their location is 10 minutes walking from the harbor so no need to worry about renting a vehicle. On top of that they have their own beach for guests. You can relax, order food and drinks.
***Hidden gem alert*** you'd be stupid not to stay here. The villa with pool was insane. Definitely worth the price. We were the only ones here due to the earthquake. Half of gili T was flattened but this place is solidly built and no damage suffered (shows the quality).
Great pool, happy staff!! Clean room everything worked, just far away from the bars to be quiet and close enough for just a lil walk !!
Friendly and welcoming staff. Amazing beachfront. Away from the center of town and the 2 mosques so you're not up all night. We were also upgraded to a deluxe room which was nice. Good breakfast.
Staff were amazing, couldn't have been any more helpful. Food was great!
The property is in an excellent location, away from the bustle of the main beach, it close enough to walk there for dinner, shopping etc. The beach opposite the resort is beautiful and good for swimming, walking and surfing. You can hire push bikes and ride around the island. The breakfast was fantastic, some of the best we have had in Bali! All of the staff were friendly and happy, always able to answer questions and give advice.
Good breakfast, smiling staff, by the beach. Bikes for free.
1 km from the port and close to the market. Nice and clean stay. Friendly and helpful staff.
Location is really good, the resort has its own seashore with sunbeds. There is a possibility to get the breakfast near the beach, with a lovely view. The food was also great, there is a pretty wide range of choice (a'la carte). You can also have dinner and lunch there (our booking included the breakfast, but we also had there dinner twice at good price/value). The staff was really kind and helpful in all respects, this was a really good experience for us.. We stayed in a 2 bedroom villa with a pool inside. The villa itself with its accessories was great and nice (like on the pictures), we enjoyed staying there.

Pool was under construction so not able to use. WiFi was none existent. Dirty sheets and towels. Would go to get a clean towel after a shower and notice they were just the dirty wet towels we left on the floor the day before to be changed.
Their pool water wasn't clean and fresh.
The villas are awesome.... liked the location. Very good staffs.
From the start of our stay the staff were always so helpful and friendly and made sure that our stay was the best it could be. We stayed in one of their villas which was amazing 😊 Place was very clean and food + cocktails were so good! Can't fault this hotel at all, can't wait for our next stay!
Nothing. Don't be a peasant.
Myself and 3 friends rented a villa here for 3 nights. We arrived before check in time and the staff were really friendly. They gave us water, cold towels and some towels so we could use the pool area until the room was ready. The villa itself was lovely, clean, and private. The staff were all very friendly. Location was good for us too. It is half way from the harbour to the sunset beach so it was nice and quiet at night but close enough to the party if we wanted.

Carly Fiorina's Powerful New Friend
FOXBusiness
Tom Perkins, a former HP director and legendary co-founder of one of Silicon Valley's top venture capital firms, Kleiner Perkins Caulfield Byers, is backing Carly Fiorina for President of the United States. I bet nobody saw that coming.
After all, Perkins didn't even back Fiorina when she was chief executive of HP. In 2004, he voted along with the rest of the company's board to fire her. Now he thinks she should be the whole nation's CEO – or so he said in a full-page Fiorina Super PAC ad in last week's New York Times.
What on the surface appears to be a turnabout of almost farcical proportions – Fiorina has written about the active role Perkins played in her ouster – may actually make a sort of twisted sense when you stop and think about it.
In the ad, Perkins admits that Fiorina's termination was a mistake. He said it had nothing to do with her leadership and everything to do with a dysfunctional board. Indeed, the notion that HP's board was and may still be rife with politicking and infighting is nothing new. That's been the new HP Way since the board pushed out long-time CEO Lew Platt in 1999.
The board wanted a rock star to shake up the stodgy old company that was stuck in its ways and that's exactly what it got. Fiorina reorganized the IT giant to a centralized management structure to streamline decision-making and laid off thousands. That ruffled a lot of feathers. She was polarizing. Folks either loved or hated her.
And the outcome of her controversial tenure may have been very different if not for one crucial decision that led to an even more crucial one. Fiorina had two chances to acquire the consulting practice of PricewaterhouseCoopers, but got cold feet when Wall Street reacted negatively to the deal. So she bought Compaq instead.
In effect, HP doubled down on computer hardware while IBM scooped up the consulting powerhouse and became the world's top IT services company.
Looking back, that was the one fateful mistake Fiorina made and the truth is that anyone could have made it. Another truth is that the board was unanimously behind her every step of the way ... until it decided otherwise and fired her.
Replacing Fiorina with Mark Hurd was an inspired move that led to market share gains across all core businesses, five years of revenue growth and 22 quarters of increasing profits. But the board still found a way to screw that up. It threw Hurd under the bus over a baseless sexual harassment claim and some botched expense reports.
Looking back, Fiorina and Hurd both did exactly what the board wanted and it stabbed them both in the back. At that point, I doubt if anyone of merit was willing to take a chance on running HP, so the board reluctantly agreed on Leo Apotheker, who had recently been fired by SAP.
When it became apparent that Apotheker's tenure as CEO would be mercifully brief, New York Times columnist James Stewart learned that most of the directors voted for Apotheker without ever having met him. He called HP a "laughingstock in Silicon Valley" and, in the same column, Perkins said HP's board "has got to be the worst board in the history of business."
While Perkins' latest revelation further substantiates what many of us already knew about HP's board, it also highlights the complexities of being a top executive in the high-tech industry and the challenges boards face in determining which CEO to hire and when it's time to pull the trigger and move on.
Nowhere have those challenges been more apparent than at HP, where a chronically dysfunctional board has institutionalized the art of making startlingly dumb executive decisions, one after another. The great irony is that we might say the same thing about Washington.
Think about it. How many times have we heard the federal government described as dysfunctional or a laughingstock?
Why Fiorina would even consider trying her hand at turning around another screwed up organization is beyond me. If HP's board was political and divisive, that's nothing compared to Washington. But the fact that she even wants the job does say a great deal about Fiorina's character and tenacity.
Perkins definitely brought up some interesting points in making his case for Fiorina as president. But the one thing he missed is that, if she could handle HP's board and navigate one of the world's largest companies through the demise of the dot-com bubble, she just might be made of the right stuff for Washington.
But let's not overlook the obvious. Perkins may be right about HP's board, but he's been wrong about Fiorina before. Whether he's right this time is anyone's guess.

The  is an archaeological site in the city of Minamisōma, Fukushima Prefecture, in the southern Tōhoku region of northern Japan containing the ruins of a large-scale a late-Nara period to early Heian period bloomery (ironworks).  The site was designated a National Historic Site of Japan in 2011 by the Japanese government.

Overview
The site is located on a 40-50 meter hilltop about 7 km distant from the Pacific coastline, and extends almost along a long, narrow tongue-shaped hill 240 meters north-south by 60 meters east-west. Excavations from 2007 to 2009 confirmed the ruins of seven iron smelting furnaces, and 26 charcoal-making kilns along with the remains of 31 additional depressions in the nearby woods also believed to have been smelting furnaces together with another 23 possible charcoal kilns. In addition, at the adjacent Tategoshi Steel Production Site are the remains of an additional three iron smelting furnaces and 16 charcoal kilns. The smelting furnaces are designed as a bloomery, with a chimney made of heat-resistant  earth and clay, located in a 1.5 meter deep pit and surrounded by an annular (doughnut-shaped) ridge 20 meters in diameter. Up to six bloomeries were located within one annular ring, which pieced with tuyeres to allow air to enter the furnace and molten pig iron to be extracted. The furnaces and slag dump are at the northern end of the ridge, and charcoal kilns were found at the center and southern areas.

In addition, from the first half of the 9th century, a rectangular box-shaped furnace with a length of about 180 cm and a width of about 50 cm, which had a bellows in the center was found. This produced high purity iron, of which several large lumps were also found. Four slag sites have been identified, and over 68 tons of slag have been excavated.

The coastal area of Fukushima Prefecture is rich in iron sand, and the ancient Uda and Namata counties were active areas for steelmaking. Near this archeological site, a late 7th century iron-production ruin has been found in the Kanazawa area near the coast. In the latter half of the 8th century to mid-9th century, production moved inland to the Yokodaidō site, and disappeared in the first half of the 10th century. It is one of the largest steelworks in the Tōhoku region in terms of scale, and is an important archeological site for understanding the political and social situation at the time. During this period, the conflict between the Yamato state and the Emishi tribes of northern Japan was growing and the demand for mass production of iron products such as weapons was rapidly increasing.

The site is about a 31-minute walk from Odaka Station on the JR East Jōban Line.

Green Party Video
Message from GSGP Coordinator, Denise Michell:
"A video featuring Deputy Leader Amelia Womack explaining to members and activists why it is so important to get out canvassing in the run up to local elections. We here in Glastonbury and Street do not have any elections coming up at this time, but I believe this is a useful piece of kit to have in our tool box!"

Single-Use Plastic Free Glastonbury?
David Attenborough: "Unless the flow of plastics and industrial pollution into the ocean is reduced, marine life will be poisoned by them for many centuries to come."
GSGP are very pleased to announce that on Tuesday, 14th November 2017, the following motion – proposed by Green Mayor Emma George and seconded by former Green Mayor Jon Cousins – was passed… although not after some heated discussion across the Council Table about the 'relevance' of the subject matter:
"That this Council aims to become a 'single-use plastic free' council by phasing out the use of unnecessary and unrecyclable single-use plastic (SUP) products such as bottles, cups, cutlery and drinking straws in all council activities by April 2018, and to encourage our facilities' users and local businesses to do the same by championing alternatives."
As far as we are aware, Glastonbury is the first Council in Somerset to take this stand.

A Community Savings Bank for Glastonbury!
Do we want to create a new type of community-owned, mutual bank in the South West? This was the question posed at a meeting held on 12th October in Glastonbury Town Hall – organised by the Last Bank Standing team with the Royal Society of Arts and the Community Savings Bank Association…
Do you want to own a Community Bank?
Imagine if there was a bank dedicated to the South West that put the welfare of its local communities before profits. A bank that helped local economies to grow by supporting all residents to upskill, regardless of their financial means. A bank that empowered people to grow their ideas into thriving local businesses. A bank that people trusted. What might the South West look like in twenty or thirty years time?
During the evening, the RSA's Director of Economics, Tony Greenham, discussed the economic and social case for regional banks, and explored the opportunities and challenges of creating a truly co-operative bank dedicated to the South West.
The need for regional banking was highlighted in the RSA's Inclusive Growth Commission, which highlighted that the lack of access to appropriate banking and financial tools can have a serious impact on people on low incomes or with a poor financial history, as well as on SMEs and micro businesses.
Incredibly, there are over 1.7 million adults in the UK that don't have a bank account, while at the same time the pace of branch closures has accelerated rapidly, leaving 1,500 communities without a bank – as we are well aware here in Glastonbury!
Whilst already severe, these challenges are likely to become even more acute in the context of Brexit and upcoming reforms to local government financing. There has never been a more urgent need to rebalance the UK economy.
The RSA are supporting the Community Savings Bank Association to create a UK-wide network of customer-owned, regional banks to serve the everyday financial needs of ordinary people, local community groups, and small and medium sized companies.
The Green Mayor of Glastonbury, Cllr Emma George, with the organisers of the South West Community Bank event. L-R: Paul Manning (Glastonbury Chamber of Commerce), Tony Greenham (RSA Director of Economics), the Mayor, Mark Hall (RSA Deputy Head of Engagement), and Kevin Redpath (Last Bank Standing).
The Glastonbury event explored the motivations and barriers in Glastonbury – and other local areas – to establishing this kind of bank, and the role that different stakeholders could play in catalysing the establishment of a South West bank.
