As surely as Christmas decorations appear this time of year, classical music lovers instinctively sense a performance of Georg Friederich Handel's celebrated oratorio "Messiah" is in the air. In fact, it seems to be a time-honored tradition that wherever there is an orchestra, chorus, soloists and a conductor, there is a performance of "Messiah," no matter a community's size.
'Messiah' a gift to the community
Alyce Stevens Gardner, Southwest Symphony Orchestra board chair, recently announced the symphony will present two performances of "Messiah," one a Saturday matinee and the other its traditional first Sunday in December.
Says Gardner, "We have engaged wonderful soloists, including tenor Isaac Hurtado and baritone Darrell Babidge, who will be coming from Utah Valley to perform with the symphony. Each visiting soloist has an extraordinary background." Adds Gardner, "We are also featuring outstanding local soloists, Tennile Coello, Kathy Geiss, Chrissy Stewart and Kinny Stubbs." LietoVoices! is the featured chorus, with maestro Lucas Darger, conducting.
Babidge graduated from the Royal Northern College of Music in the U.K. where he received four major awards and performed lead roles. He received his master's degree from Brigham Young University and his professional degree in vocal performance from the Manhattan School of Music. He has had an extensive recording background as well.
In addition, Babidge operates a private studio and serves as a full-time faculty member at Brigham Young University. His students sing in major opera houses throughout the world.
Hurtado has drawn critical acclaim for performances in over 30 leading tenor roles across the country. Recently, Hurtado appeared as Don Jose in Carmen with Pine Mountain Music Festival (MI) and Utah Valley Symphony.
In concert, Hurtado regularly performs with the tenor trio, ULTIMI, and has appeared in gala concerts with the Utah Symphony and Opera and many other orchestras. He currently serves as Director of Opera at Utah Valley University and is the owner of Utah Vocal Arts Academy in Provo.
Southwest Symphony's matinee performance is on Saturday, Dec. 1 at 2 p.m. at the Cox Performing Arts Center on the campus of Dixie State University, and Sunday, Dec. 2 at 7:30 p.m. in the same venue. Gardner advises the event is open seating to the public, but preferred seating is reserved for season ticket holders.

"We are dedicating this season's 'Messiah' concerts to the memory of two OSU violists, Judy Larsen and Mary MacDonald," says Sara Penny, a musician with the Orchestra of Southern Utah.
Larsen not only played viola in the orchestra, but she also played piano, organ and string instruments for community and church events.
"Judy was a sweet lady who gave great musical service," Penny said. "She played piano for numerous students at our Southern Utah String Festival and recitals. It is a joy to see so many of her children and grandchildren are accomplished musicians."
MacDonald led the viola section for the orchestra, sang and played for recitals, weddings, and funerals, and was a violinist and violist in the Cedar City String Quartet for over fifty years. She taught ceramics at Southern Utah University and helped develop an art museum on campus.
OSU spokesperson Tanisa Crosby says this year's performance continues the annual holiday tradition of performing free concerts of Handel's "Messiah" for the public.
"This is a way for the orchestra to give back to the community during the holiday season," says Crosby. She adds, "It has provided a glorious message of hope, peace, and love for the Christmas season."
"Messiah" will take place on Sunday, Dec. 9 and Monday, Dec. 10, at 7:30 p.m. at the Heritage Center Theatre, located at 105 N. 100 East in Cedar City. Tickets are free to the public, but mandatory, and are available at the Heritage Center and Cedar Music Store. Unfilled seats will be released at 7:15 p.m. For more information, please contact OSU Manager Rebekah Hughes at 435-592-6051 or beckyosucedarcity@gmail.com.
More than a century of singing
Thomas G. Alexander in his publication "Utah: the Right Place" (1995), tells of "Messiah" performances in Utah as early as the 1860s, in Salt Lake City, presented by David Calder's Deseret Musical Association. By 1865, song schools were formed throughout Utah, and no doubt, "Messiah" selections proved popular.
In Utah's capital city today, one may participate in the annual "`Messiah' Sing-In" with the Utah Symphony, held the last Saturday and Sunday in November. Members of the Utah Symphony Chorus, Westminster Community Chorus and selected soloists joined with the symphony at Abravanel Hall on Nov. 24 and 25. Conner Gray Covington conducted.
The palpable power of Handel's 'Messiah'
Some have said the reason for the popularity of "Messiah" stems from being relatively easy to play, and because the libretto comes from familiar biblical text, the story of Christ being understood generally around the world. The message tells the story of Jesus' mission primarily through Old Testament passages and to validate the doctrine that Jesus Christ is truly the "Messiah" promised by the Hebrew prophets.
Handel commenced composing in 1741, on Aug. 22, and completed his draft by Sept. 14. He was 56 years old. Although Handel died in poverty, he provided the world a wealth of enduring music.
Sir Thomas Beecham, one of the finest English conductors, wrote in his memoirs about Handel's music: "Since Handel's time mankind has heard no music written for voices that can even feebly rival his for grandeur of build and tone, nobility and tenderness of melody, scholastic skill and ingenuity and the inexhaustible variety of effect. ... Handel is the undeniably great international master of all time."

Shanghai Disney Store Adds New Clock Tower
A new 60 foot tall clock tower has been added at the Shanghai Disney Store Plaza. The Glockenspiel-style clock tower was designed by Walt Disney Imagineering. It provides bells and musical shows every half hour and hour. The hourly show includes a Disney character parade.
Disney says the tour features Mickey Mouse clock faces. The tower has statues and animated figures from the Disney, Pixar, Marvel and Star Wars universes. It also has visible gears and mechanisms through its glass windows.
Bob Weis, president, WDI, says in a statement, "We hope the Shanghai Disney Store clock tower will become a new landmark for this great city, providing a preview of the magic that will soon arrive with the opening of Shanghai Disney Resort."

The Prime Minister has secured a new Brexit deal with the EU that lays the clear foundation for a comprehensive future Free Trade Agreement and delivers on the promises made to British public during the 2016 referendum. He is resolute that the UK will leave the EU with his new deal which has passed its Second Reading in the House of Commons.
Over 17.4 million people and 73% of the constituents of South Basildon & East Thurrock voted to leave the EU in 2016. I strongly believe that their vote should be honoured. Politicians cannot choose which public votes they respect. The longer the UK's exit is frustrated, the greater the risk the trust of the electorate in the democratic process is undermined.
The UK must leave with EU with or without a deal. The Government is fully prepared to leave without a deal and I would support them doing so if necessary, but I remain hopeful that we leave with the new deal.
I hope that this General Election will secure a Conservative Party working majority in the House of Commons to deliver on Brexit.

10 top words of 2016 – 2016年十大流行语 – English
originally published on:14/12/2016(log in to improve translation) AUTHOR: Word biter - 咬文嚼字
20 paragraph translated (20 in total)
You are viewing an old revision of this post, from January 4, 2017 @ 09:26:00. See below for differences between this version and the current revision.
1. Primordial power
"Primordial" is a term borrowed to describe the ancient times and originally means to be in chaos, or of barbaric or ignorant in nature. It is said that at the beginning of time, there once was a great flood that nearly destroyed the entire world and laid waste to civilization. "Primordial power" refers to the time when the heavens were opened that was enough to destroy the natural power of the earth. The phrase "primordial power" frequently emerged during the 2015 airing of the popular drama about supernatural beings, "Huaqiangu," where the term was used to denote a great supernatural deity. During the 2016 Rio Olympics at the 100-meter backstroke semifinals, China's Fu Yuanhui advanced to the final round. After winning, she was famously noted saying in an interview: "I've already exhausted my primordial power." Becoming famous overnight and "primordial power" are frequently used to describe a boundless energy.
2. Watermelon-eating spectators
In real life, people often eat melon seeds while listening to others chat. Likewise, on internet forums, people engage in discussion over various topics. There are always a group of people posting and responding to threads or voicing their opinions or even engaging in irrelevant discourse. Those who only read the discussions and don't contribute to the thread are called "eating melon seeds." In order to input this phrase quicker, the shorthand term, "eating melons" is often used. "Spectators," or "the masses" refers to ordinary people, internet users, who just read forums and don't write comments and are called "watermelon-eating spectators." The usage of the term has since expanded to include topics that are not understood or to people—not necessarily limited to users on internet forums—who are inclined to only keep quiet and spectate rather than add their voice to the discussion.
3. Artisan spirit
"Artisan Spirit" refers to the precision and dedication of a craftsman to his work. Artisans pursue perfection and pay attention to detail, and they always strive to perfect and refine their work. In the "Government Work Report" on February 5, 2016, Premier Li Keqian used term "artisan spirit" to encourage the development of customization and flexibility to foster a greater consciousness for striving towards higher quality production. As the term quickly gained popularity, it became a buzzword in the manufacturing industry. Shortly after, the term became widely used not only in the manufacturing industry but gained popularity in many other industries as well. With the expanding usage of the phrase encompassing various industries, "artisan spirit" has become widely accepted to describe anyone who possesses a "consciousness striving for high quality and perfection" kind of mentality.
4. A small goal
The current popular term, "small goals" came about from Wanda Group's CEO, Wang Jianlin. In the popular TV show called "A Date with Lu Yu" Wang talked about how "many young people want to become the richest person" and went on to explain how, "wanting to become the richest person in the world is a correct mindset to approach life, but the best thing to do is first establish a small goal that you can achieve, like earning a hundred million (RMB). To the "richest man in the world," 100 million is really just a "small goal." Wang's words were indeed appropriate. From the common person's point of view, "one hundred million" is an "astronomical figure" bordering near impossible; netizens consequently complain: This small goal is indeed small" (sarcasm)…"small goal" immediately went viral. The idea is ironically the opposite of its meaning, referring to the difficulty for an ordinary person to achieve a "large goal," and carries implications of satire and mockery.
5. A single sharp word just XX
Chinese has always had this saying, "a single sharp word in a conversation" which means a saying that was not opportunistic. This saying thereby gave rise to "fallout from a single word." Now the popular "a single sharp word just XX" has to do with the 2015 year-end e-sports competition. The competition sponsor's attitude was extremely careless and sparked intense dissatisfaction among viewers. Some took to the internet to express their anger by writing posts on Baidu forums that contained vulgar, which were eventually censored. Internet streams which contain vulgar content are called "driving a car". People then commented that: "young people, in a single wrong word just drive a car (or stream online)." "A single sharp word just XX," has risen to popularity across the internet. Along with its expanding usage, "a single sharp word in a conversation" and whatever immediately follows, XX, has no semantic or logical connection. Now it is merely used to express an idea of "sudden," "impulsive" or "apt to happen." such phrases like "in a single word the teacher praises the student." Or, "in a single word our work unit issues a bonus," "investing in real estate has suddenly earned a boat load of money," or, "the stock market in one sharp word has suddenly fallen" and so on.
6. The friendship has capsized
"The small friend-ship has capsized," is referring to the weakness in relationship between two people, whereby at any time the relationship could fall apart. On March 31, 2016 an artist named "Nan Dongni" posted a cartoon titled "the friendship fall-out" which detailed two cute penguins as friends sitting in a small boat. But because one of them was a little overweight, the boat flipped over. This cartoon became highly sought after, with other netizens editing the caption with different text and gave rise to a competition of "capsizing boat" meme making. Some examples included, "do you want to eat Chongqing hot pot? I don't eat spicy food. Our small friendship is sunk! Later, the "friendship is sunk" part grew to include any 'mishap' such as "the oil price ship has capsized" or "the small marriage ship has capsized" or "the student-teacher relationship has capsized" and so on. Some people speculate that the "small friend ship" comes from the English word, friendship, where the 'ship' part is implying the image of a small boat and is understood to be the friend-ship. A well-known line in the American drama "Friends" is quoted saying: "what's the one kind of boat they can never, ever sink? A Friendship.
7. Supply side
On September 10, 2015, at the eleventh meeting of leading groups at Central Finance and Economics, General Secretary Xi Jinping proposed "structural supply side reform": "While moderately expanding aggregate demand, we ought to increase supply side reform by boosting quality and efficiency of supply systems and enhancing sustainable economic growth." "Supply" and "demand" in comparison are like two sides of a coin. The "supply side" is the "provider." China in the 21st Century has entered into a "new normal state," where solely relying on the "demand side" for growth makes it difficult to realize steady growth; there must be powerful reform on the "supply side." "Supply side" reform indicates a comprehensive and profound direction and is already developing in many sectors, making people eager to see the prospects of the reform.
8. Manspreading
2016年7月25日,一组"葛优躺"表情包开始出现在网络上。其图片源自曾热播的大型家庭情景剧《我爱我家》,葛优饰演的"二混子"去别人家蹭吃蹭喝,像一摊烂泥瘫坐在沙发上,神态"妙趣横生"。随着表情包的走红,网民们便把极其懒散的瘫坐姿势称作"葛优躺"。有人说,如今生活节奏越来越快,生活压力越来越大,内心累积了越来越多的"负面情绪","葛优躺"式的"颓废"迎合了人们放空一切、降低焦虑、释放压力的心理需求。这正是"葛优躺"一词流行的心理背景。
九、套路
汉语中本有"套路"一词,指编制成套的武术动作,如少林拳套路;也指成系统的技术、方式、方法等,如改革新套路。2016年网络流行语中的"套路"旧瓶装新酒,其"套"不是"成套""成系统"的意思,而是指"圈套""老套"。"套路"泛指经过精心编制的、用来迷惑人的说法或做法,甚至诡计、陷阱等,如"骗子行骗的套路就是恐吓,让人心生恐惧,从而听其摆布"。有时也指人们早已习惯的约定俗成的处理各种事情的手段、方式、方法等,如"记者采访的套路大家都很熟悉"。
十、蓝瘦,香菇
"蓝瘦,香菇"是"难受,想哭"的谐音。2016年10月,广西南宁一小哥失恋后录了一视频:"难受,想哭,本来今天高高兴兴,你为什么要说这种话?难受,想哭……"由于带有浓厚的当地口音,"难受,想哭"听上去成了"蓝瘦,香菇"。这一谐音既有调侃味又有形象感,立马受到年轻人的追捧,频频出现在微博、公众号中。一些大学的食堂,还跟风推出了"蓝瘦香菇"炒菜(合炒西蓝花、瘦肉、香菇)。随后还有人抢注了蓝瘦香菇实业有限公司。"蓝瘦,香菇"的流行,迎合了年轻人在表达上的游戏化心理。

"Supply side" reform indicates a comprehensive and profound direction and is already developing in many sectors, making people eager to see the prospects of the reform.

On September 10, 2015, at the eleventh meeting of leading groups at Central Finance and Economics, General Secretary Xi Jinping proposed "structural supply side reform": "While moderately expanding aggregate demand, we ought to increase supply side reform by boosting quality and efficiency of supply systems and enhancing sustainable economic growth." "Supply" and "demand" in comparison are like two sides of a coin. The "supply side" is the "provider." China in the 21st Century has entered into a "new normal state," where solely relying on the "demand side" for growth makes it difficult to realize steady growth; there must be powerful reform on the "supply side."

8. Manspreading; "The Ge You slouch"

On July 25th 2016, a sticker of someone "manspreading" started appearing online. The picture was originally from a famous family TV show "I Love My Home" features actor Ge You playing the role as "Er Hunzi" where he goes to freeload at someone else's home and is seen slouching on the sofa, in a "witty and humorous manner." Along with the sticker of him going viral, netizens call this lazy slouching position the "Ge You Slouch." Some people also say that with the increasing tempo of life in this current day and age, stress and pressures of life are growing larger. People's hearts are accumulating more 'negative emotions,' whereas the "decadent" manner of "Ge You slouching" and catering to people's venting, reduces anxiety and pressure. This description of the "Ge You slouch" is exactly the psychological background of the popular word.

9. Scheme

2016年7月25日,一组"葛优躺"表情包开始出现在网络上。其图片源自曾热播的大型家庭情景剧《我爱我家》,葛优饰演的"二混子"去别人家蹭吃蹭喝,像一摊烂泥瘫坐在沙发上,神态"妙趣横生"。随着表情包的走红,网民们便把极其懒散的瘫坐姿势称作"葛优躺"。有人说,如今生活节奏越来越快,生活压力越来越大,内心累积了越来越多的"负面情绪","葛优躺"式的"颓废"迎合了人们放空一切、降低焦虑、释放压力的心理需求。这正是"葛优躺"一词流行的心理背景。

九、套路

汉语中本有"套路"一词,指编制成套的武术动作,如少林拳套路;也指成系统的技术、方式、方法等,如改革新套路。2016年网络流行语中的"套路"旧瓶装新酒,其"套"不是"成套""成系统"的意思,而是指"圈套""老套"。"套路"泛指经过精心编制的、用来迷惑人的说法或做法,甚至诡计、陷阱等,如"骗子行骗的套路就是恐吓,让人心生恐惧,从而听其摆布"。有时也指人们早已习惯的约定俗成的处理各种事情的手段、方式、方法等,如"记者采访的套路大家都很熟悉"。

十、蓝瘦,香菇

"蓝瘦,香菇"是"难受,想哭"的谐音。2016年10月,广西南宁一小哥失恋后录了一视频:"难受,想哭,本来今天高高兴兴,你为什么要说这种话?难受,想哭……"由于带有浓厚的当地口音,"难受,想哭"听上去成了"蓝瘦,香菇"。这一谐音既有调侃味又有形象感,立马受到年轻人的追捧,频频出现在微博、公众号中。一些大学的食堂,还跟风推出了"蓝瘦香菇"炒菜(合炒西蓝花、瘦肉、香菇)。随后还有人抢注了蓝瘦香菇实业有限公司。"蓝瘦,香菇"的流行,迎合了年轻人在表达上的游戏化心理。

The word for "scheme" in Chinese comes from a word that originally was used to describe a routine set of martial arts movements, such as the Shaolin method; the is also used to describe a systematic technology, pattern or methodology, such as reforming a new pattern. 2016 gave this word a new meaning, where the 'systematic' part does not have the meaning of a 'system' but instead refers to a 'trap/scheme' or 'old ways'. "Scheme" generally refers to a well-organized or elaborate way of speaking or doing something that seeks to mislead someone, even to the point deception or trapping. For example, "the cheater's threatening scheme uses the fear in one's heart, allowing it to be manipulated." Sometimes it can refer to one's old habits or conventional means or methods to handle a particular matter, such as: "Everyone knows about this reporter's interviewing scheme."

10. Feeling blue; "Hard to bear, want to cry."

"Hard to bear, want to cry" is a homonym in Chinese. In October 2016, a guy from Nanning, the capital city of Guangxi province, made a video about his recent breakup in which he said: "It's hard to bear and I want to cry. Today was supposed to be happy, so why do you speak like this? It's hard to bear, want to cry." Because of the thick accent people from this area have when speaking, his words sounded like "thin blue mushroom" in Mandarin. This homophone has the sense of ridicule and a feeling of imagery and was immediately adopted by young people who used it widely in videos on Weibo and WeChat public accounts. Some university dining halls also followed the meme by putting out fried "thin blue mushroom" (a dish combining broccoli, lean meat, and mushrooms). Soon after, some people rushed to set up an industry company in the name of "blue thin mushroom" to cater towards young people and their expression of a gaming mentality.

Phoungern-Lao Red Cross Volunteer has been helping to prepare relief items for affected people in Attapeu after the dam collapse. A medical student inspired by his earlier year of serving as Red Cross volunteer came back to help during one of Laos' worst flooding.
"Nam Hon, Nam Hon means 'hot water, hot water' in Lao," said Phoungern when he tried to start a conversation while loading packets of drinking water onto a pick-up truck at the Lao Red Cross (LRC) Headquarter. The truck would later head to Attapeu Province where people affected by the collapse of Xe-Pian Xe-Namnoy hydropower dams awaited assistance.
It had been almost ten days since the flash flooding took place as a result of a dam burst that inundated eight villages of the Sanamxay District, affecting many thousands of people and leaving at least 7,500 people homeless. More than 200 LRC volunteers have approached LRC to offer their help. As of today, 2 August, almost two thousand relief bags, consisting of clothes, canned food, and hygiene items, have been put together by these volunteers, and shipped to affected people in Sanamxay. Phoungern is one among the 200 volunteers who has spent at least two dozens of hours screening, packing, and sending their "love and heartfelt support" to those in Sanamxay. When asked about his motivation to volunteer, Phoungern said that it has been a dream come true for him ever since he became LRC volunteer in 2017 and took part in conducting the Youth in School Safety (YSS) activities in his high school on the outskirts of Vientiane. Since then, he has devoted at least a month's worth of his time supporting LRC in YSS and in preparing relief items, the same way that he has been doing for the last few days.


THIS lacklustre affair between last season's top two from Division One came to life in the 15 minutes either side of the half time break.
Lutterworth opened the scoring on 31 minutes when a dangerous looking cross was not dealt with by the Sileby defence putting pressure on keeper Matthew Woodgate.
Sileby responded when substitute Nik Harvey, on for the injured Jon Coppard, raced clear to round keeper Adam Seymour to make it 1-1.
Seymour was again at the centre of the action when he was sent off controversially after handling outside the 18 yard area. From the resulting free kick, Sileby almost took the lead when replacement keeper Chris Bradshaw made a reaction save from a deflection.
In the 48 minute of the first half Sileby took the lead through an own goal when a cross was diverted home.
Lutterworth came out in the second half all fired up but it was Sileby who extended their advantage early on in the half when the unmarked Martin Hanmer headed home off the inside of the post from a corner.
Despite not producing the most entertaining football Sileby closed ranks to see out the game.
Lutterworth tried but never really threatened the Sileby goal with their 10 men and the win should give Town plenty of confidence to move forward.

Die Karmeliterstraße – bis ins 19. Jahrhundert häufig auch Karmelitenstraße geschrieben – ist eine Straße in der Münchner Innenstadt. Sie ist nach der ehemaligen Karmelitenkirche an der Westseite der Straße benannt.

Lage
Die Karmeliterstraße liegt im Stadtbezirk Altstadt-Lehel, dem zentralen Stadtbezirk Münchens, und hier im Nordwesten der Altstadt im Kreuzviertel.

Sie hat eine Länge von rund 80 Metern und beginnt an der Westseite des Promenadeplatzes. Sie führt in südwestlicher Richtung bis zu einer Kreuzung, an der aus westlicher Richtung die Maxburgstraße vom Lenbachplatz kommt. Von dieser Kreuzung zweigt in östliche Richtung eine Straße mit dem Namen Löwengrube weiter in Richtung der knapp 200 Meter entfernten Frauenkirche ab. In südwestliche Richtung wird der Straßenverlauf der Karmeliterstraße durch die Ettstraße fortgeführt.

Straßenverlauf
An der Westseite der Karmeliterstraße befindet sich die 1657 bis 1660 erbaute, ehemalige Karmeliterkirche St. Nikolaus. Das profanierte Gebäude wird heute als Archiv des Erzbistums München und Freising genutzt, ein Teilbereich dient als Veranstaltungs- und Ausstellungsraum. Daran angrenzend befinden sich Gebäude des Ordinariats des Erzbistums München mit einer Parkanlage, die durch eine Mauer von der Karmeliterstraße abgetrennt ist.

Auf der Ostseite der Straße befindet sich ein fünfstöckiger Gebäudekomplex der Deutschen Bank mit zwei begrünten Innenhöfen. Die dort vorher befindliche Bebauung war im Zweiten Weltkrieg beschädigt und später abgerissen worden.

Die Karmelitenstraße ist eine Einbahnstraße in Fahrtrichtung Süden.

Geschichte
Das Alter der heutigen Karmeliterstraße ist nicht bekannt. Überliefert ist jedoch, dass im Bereich des heute nördlich angrenzenden Promenadeplatzes ab dem 15. Jahrhundert die städtischen Salzstadel standen, die 1778 abgerissen wurden.

Als älteste Bezeichnungen der heutigen Karmeliterstraße ist aus der Zeit zwischen 1509 und 1565 der Name Seemüllers Gässel, um 1600 der Name Neu Gässel überliefert. Ende 18. Jahrhundert ist sowohl Kaltenecker Gässel, als auch schon Karmelitergasse bzw. Karmelitengasse nachweisbar. Die heute namensgebende Karmelitenkirche war 1660 als Votiv- und Klosterkirche geweiht worden.

An der Karmeliterstraße lag von 1806 bis 1944 ein Königliches Erziehungsinstitut für Studierende in München, das ab 1811 von dem vormaligen Benediktiner Benedict von Holland als Direktor geleitet wurde und später nach ihm Hollandeum genannt wurde. Das Institut war 1806 von seinem Gründungsort in der Neuhauser Gasse in die Gebäude der Karmelitenkirche umgesiedelt. 1905 wurde es offiziell in Albertinum umbenannt. Nach der Zerstörung des Gebäudes bei Luftangriffen der Royal Air Force am 25. April 1944 wurde das Institut nach 1945 erneut verlagert.

Im Handels- und Gewerbs-Addreß-Taschenbuch der Königl.-Baierischen Haupt- und Residenz-Stadt München von 1818 zählt die Karmeliterstraße die Hausnummern 1441 bis 1444. Zusätzlich wird der Karmeliter-Platze mit den Hausnummern 1445 und 1446 angeführt. Bei der neuen Hausnummerierung (veröffentlicht ab 1833) wurden aus den Hausnummer 1441 die Karmelitergasse 3, aus der Nr. 1442 die Nr. 4, aus der Nr. 1443 die Nr. 1 (Erziehungsinstitut), aus der Nr. 1444 die Nr. 2 (Studienkirche). Die Hausnummern 1445 und 1446 vom Karmeliterplatze  werden der Pfandhausgasse, der heutigen Pacellistraße, zugeordnet.

Promenadeplatz, Ecke Karmeliterstraße
Gegenüber der Karmeliterkirche bzw. dem Institutsgebäude stand mindestens seit 1482 ein Brauhaus, das im 17. Jahrhundert zunächst zum Kloster Weihenstephan (1603–1629) gehörte, dann nach dem nächsten Besitzer Pollinger'sche Brauerei (1629–1667) genannt wurde, die 1662/63 als bei den Salzstädeln am Kalteneckh bzw. Kaltenögg charakterisiert wurde. In der ersten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts in der damals noch Karmelitergasse genannten Straße trug diese Brauerei den Namen Kaltenecker, Kalten-Ecker bzw. Kaltenegger Bräuhaus und hatte die Hausnummer 15. Laut einer Veräußerungsanzeige von 1811 gehörte zu diesem Bräuhaus auch ein Sommerkeller auf dem Gasteige. Im Handels- und Gewerbs-Addreß-Taschenbuch der Königl.-Baierischen Haupt- und Residenz-Stadt München von 1818 wird das Kaltenecker-Brauhaus zum Promenadeplatz gezählt, nachdem dieser nach Abriss der Salzstadel als Paradeplatz genutzt und ab 1804 zur Grünanlage umgestaltet und Promenadeplatz genannt wurde.

1826 wurde die dem Bürger und Brauer Johann Gallinger († 1828) gehörende Brauerei aufgegeben, 1848 ging die Braugerechtsame an die Spatenbrauerei. Aufgrund seiner Nähe zum Karmeliterkloster wird die Brauerei im Volksmund mitunter auch als Karmeliten-Brauerei bezeichnet. Hingegen hatte das Karmeliterkloster tatsächlich bis zur Säkularisation ein eigenes Bräuhaus an der Karmelitergasse, das aber im Zuge der Säkularisation abgerissen und an dessen Stelle die Institutsgebäude des königlichen Erziehungsinstituts errichtet wurden.

Das Brauhaus mit der Hausnummer 1440 wird ab 1833 nunmehr offiziell als Promenadeplatz 15 wiedergegeben, aber, wie gesehen, weiterhin auch als Karmelitergasse 15, später als Seiteneingang Karmelitergasse bzw. -straße bezeichnet. Später bekommt das Brauhaus im allgemeinen Sprachgebrauch den Standort Promenadeplatz 21, Ecke Karmeliterstraße zugewiesen.

Bereits 1802 befand sich im früheren Kaltenecker-Brauhaus in der Karmelitergasse eine Boutique des niederländischen Textilienhändlers Gerhard Graeve von Neuenrade, dann das Geschäftslokal des jüdischen Kaufmanns, Großhändlers und Bankiers Moritz Guggenheimer (1824–1902). Sein Vater Bernhard S. Guggenheimer (1791–1865) war 1825 als kleiner, aber durchaus vermögender Textilhändler (Leinen, Seide) aus Harburg im Donau-Ries nach München gezogen und hatte vom Münchner Magistrat eine Großhandelskonzession erhalten. Zusammen mit seinen Söhnen Moritz, Eduard, Josef und Sigmund baute er die Großhandlung am Promenadeplatz 21 aus, drei der Söhne waren schließlich als Bankiers tätig und führten das Bankhaus Guggenheimer & Co. Nachdem Moritz Guggenheimer 1869 zu den Mitbegründern der Bayerischen Vereinsbank gehörte, wurde das Bankhaus Guggenheimer 1892 von dieser übernommen, Moritz Guggenheimer gehörte von dieser Zeit bis zu seinem Tod dem Aufsichtsrat der Vereinsbank an.

1874 war die zuvor am Promenadeplatz 13 angesiedelte und seit 1861 bestehende Tuchgroßhandlung von Meyer Holzinger und Julius Heymann an den Promenadeplatz 21 verlegt.

Später eröffnete dort der jüdische Textilienhändler Sally Eichengrün sein populäres Stoffgeschäft., das wie schon das Brauhaus mal als "in der Karmelitergasse", mal als "am Promenadeplatz" bzw. "am Ritter-von-Epp-Platz" gelegen erscheint. Eichengrün besaß auch die Immobilie, die heute der "Karmeliterstraße 2a" entspräche. 1935 wurde die Firma wegen Verschleierung des jüdischen Charakters ihrer Firma denunziert. Ihr Winterschlussverkauf 1936 brachte es zu einem Bericht der Münchener Polizeidirektion. 1938 verkaufte Eichengrün an Herbert G. Stiehler und die Familie Frey-Stalf. 1939 wanderte er in die Schweiz aus.

1986 wurden die vormaligen Häuser Promenadeplatz 15 (Gunetzrhainerhaus), 19 (Karmeliterbäcker) und 21 zur aktuellen Hausnummer 15 zusammengefasst, dem heutigen Gebäudekomplex der Deutschen Bank, der auch an der Ostseite der Karmeliterstraße verläuft.

You May be wondering why we posted this AMC television to our Admiral page … read on ….
This may be the first all electronic color television sold in America. It used an RCA 15 inch tri-color 15GP22. It was purchased on January 20, 1954 from salesman, Tony Valenti at the Brooklyn, New York Abraham & Straus department store just hours after the below advertisement broke. See the below newspaper article published a few days later. A women phoned the store, then came in to purchase the set including a $200 service contract with delivery in February.
The first all electronic color television in production and offered for sale was the Admiral C1617A. This article will document the existence of at least 33 C1617A's.
There has been debate and the consensus by the collector community is that this set was not the first color television marketed for sale. Why, because only 4 sets are know to exist in collectors possession and two in a museum as of the date of this posting and because of this low number, it's been assumed that very few sets were actually manufactured. The thought is, if the Admiral C1617A has low manufacturing numbers, it should not count as a bonafide production color receiver. Our research is offered to help clarify the debate.
Admiral C1617A Courtesy Television History-The First 75 years
DECEMBER 18, 1953 New Castle News, New Castle, Pennsylvania.
"GEORGE BROS. will allow you full purchase price on an Admiral Color TV purchased anytime between now (December 18, 1953 date of advertisement) and June 1, 1954."
In the second article below, Admiral announced the new 15 inch color set on December 18, 1953 and in a further article below, the President of Admiral states that the Admiral color set was "introduced" on December 19, 1953. We believe Admiral offered their dealerships incentives to allow customers full purchase price trade-in's on expensive Admiral color sets. Westinghouse and other color set manufactures did exactly the same thing. We found several similar advertisements like this one, one of which is shown further down below. Admiral may have been taking advance orders on the C1617A and it's possible they may have taken orders on this date. This advertisement appears to be an offer to sell (for future delivery) on December 18, 1953.
Just one day after the FCC announcement approving the RCA compatible color system, the Milwaukee Sentinal reported that Admiral was already producing color sets in pilot production with plans to introduce them to its distributors on December 30, 1953 at a price more then $1,000, with production quantities increasing by the end of the second quarter 1954. A production goal of 30 thousand color sets were planned by the end of the year.

In the enitial roll out of color sets in December, 1953, we found numerous newspaper articles published between December, 1953 and early first quarter, 1954. These articles show that Admiral had a small production run to send to their dealerships. We found that the 15 inch color sets were sent to dealers in the North, MidWest, the Eastern corridor, the South and as far away as Oakland, and Los Angles, California. The set in San Francisco was on display in a San Francisco dealership, for sale on January 14, 1954. In our search of nationwide newspapers arquives, we found many advertisements throughout the country, indicating the Admiral C1617A sets were at various dealerships at virtually the same time in the months of January, February, March, April and May, 1954. We also found numerous "giveaways", contests, contest winners and private resale advertisements. This would indicate a limited production existed. Based on our research, production was at least several hundred sets and probably much more. Had to be in the hundreds with all the simultaneous showing of sets in dealers stores throughout the country, contests, "giveaways" and resale's. Then we discovered that Admiral had a production run of 1000 in January, 1954 (below) and dealerships offering the Admiral color set for sale.
We believe Admiral was prepared to gear up to a significant production run, had color television sales taken off, but not 30,000 sets. This was hyperbole for Admiral shareholders. The industry was pessimistic about sales right from the start. The screen was to small, not enough color programming and the sets were way to expensive. How many sets were manufactured in the initial run? 50, 100, 500 or 1000? We don't know for sure. The articles found indicate Admiral had a grand scheme of manufacturing 30,000 color sets by the end of 1954. One thousand sets would be a drop in the bucket.
There are multiple accounts indicating a second shipment of Admiral color sets occurred with a price drop in April, 1954. By this time, production estimates dropped from 30 thousand to about ten thousand units in the year 1954. As you will see further down, production was halted about July or August. We have such articles found in our search. At the time the above article was written, we know there were 21 cities prepared to telecast the Tournament of Roses Parade on January 1, 1954. According to the above article, the dealers in these cities were going to get at least one Admiral color set. There were more then one dealer in each city. (As a sidenote, in my hometown of Milwaukee, there were at least seven, possibly nine prototype color sets available to view the Rose Parade in 1954.) Speculation by this author, we believe there were a sizeable number of Admiral color sets (not prototypes) produced using the RCA 15 inch color CRT, because there were more then one Admiral dealer in each large city in the existing color networks and the many advertisements found with Admiral color sets in dealer stores. We believe Admiral did put in place at least one sample color set per dealer in the 21 city network and that the production was much higher then the current belief. See below article:
Based on Admirals intention to have samples of their first color set available to all their dealers in the 21 city color network and the above and below articles, we don't think it's unreasonable to believe that 1000 sets were indeed manufactured. In a 1955 contest, Admiral was giving away 10 such color sets. In our search of nationwide newspaper articles, we found various private re-sale ads of this Admiral color set in 1954 and 1955. We can't post every article we found. It would take up too much space on this page. The question is, how many of these color sets sold? According to the collector community, we know 6 sets are known to exist in possession of collectors and a museum as of the date of this post. (Two recently discovered June 25, 2017, the museum sets by this author)
In this November 19, 1961 Chicago Tribune article, the President of Admiral Corporation claims Admiral's first color television was introduced on December 19, 1953.

In this November 10, 1963 Chicago Tribune article, Mr. Siracusa is now Chairman of the Board, Admiral Corporation. He writes, giving more details about the first Admiral color television. The new information is that the cabinet had a removable top for servicing of the chassis.
This is the first all electronic color set, the Admiral C1617A which was introduced to the public as early as December 19, 1953 according to the Admiral Corporation or on December 30, 1953 according to the New York Times and others.

Published January 4, 1954 in the Miami News
How many Admiral dealerships existed in the 21 network cities in 1954? Did Admiral manufacture about 1000 color sets to address this question?
Earliest evidence (I've found so far) of an Admiral C1617A in a dealer store. (Maryland)
The Admiral C1617A color TV goes on sale in San Francisco on January 14, 1954. Orders for color TV taken on priority basis.
First photographic evidence of an Admiral C1617A in a dealer store.
On page 106 of the book, Television: The Life Story of a Technology, it is stated: "Admiral Television Corporation put the first receivers (color) on the market for $1175.00 on December 30, 1953, so that it could take a deductible tax loss on its color factory investment."
An article published January 25, 1954 in The News-Paladium, Benton Harbor, Michigan offering the Admiral color set for sale, "Delivery Guaranteed as we receive shipments. Purchase price, $1175.00 installed with your existing antenna."
Article published January 26, 1954 in the Oakland Tribune. Admiral color set on display at Maxwells department store in Oakland, California. (Presumably taking orders? Of course, why in the store if not to sell?)
Article published February 21, 1954 from the Pittsburg Press: "100% trade-in allowance toward color television on any new set purchased from us now."
Here is an article from the Pittsburg Post-Gazette published February 24, 1954.
Courtesy Pittsburg Post-Gazette
First documented purchase of an Admiral C1617A (that I've found so far) occurred sometime prior to May 16, 1954. Possibly a mom and pop repair shop looking for business?
One month later a follow up article found.
Second documented purchase (found so far) of an Admiral C1617A occurred sometime prior to May 25, 1954 including the disclosure that "(Admiral) color sets have been installed in a few private homes in the Chicago area." Note: "In the Midwest area".
An article from Billboard Magazine published May 29, 1954. The President of Admiral Corporation announced a price drop of their color television from $1175.00 to $1000.00. This indicates the Admiral color set was still being marketed as of the date of publication of the article, May 29, 1954.
This earlier April 9, 1954 Chicago Tribune article states that Admiral had started shipping its "second series" of color sets at $1,000, a price drop of $175 dollars from the preceding price. We know that RCA did not announce their 21 inch color tube and television until September 15, 1954, so this "second series" would have been the 15 inch color set. This article affirms the above article.
If Admiral color sets were not selling, they were giving then away in an Arthur Godfrey Lux Liquid contest. "Win an Admiral 15 inch color TV consoles", one of 10 in this 1955 advertisement. (A similar contest was held to win an RCA 21CT55, sponsored by Kraft Parkay margarine)
In an article appearing in the Chicago Tribune published June 13, 1954, the President of Admiral Corporation declared the 12 inch color tube dead. This should give us insights as to the thinking and intent of further marketing of the Admiral C1617A.

Another giveaway in Boston, September 29, 1955.
Another contest. Three Admiral C1617A's to be given away.
One more giveaway in Waco, Texas, February 7, 1956.
Private sale or resale in Tampa, Florida, April 24, 1956.
In the book, "1950s American Style A Reference Guide", on page 97, it is stated, "The first compatible color sets, built by the Admiral Corporation in 1953, sold for $1,175."

Update, June 25, 2017
Newly discovered (by author) Admiral C1617A N color television found at the Canada Science And Technology Museum. The museum has two, which appear in excellent condition with detailed information. This set is one of six known to exist as of the date of this writing. Tap on images for enlargement. Photos and information courtesy of the museum.
Speculation. Is it possible that the Admiral C1617A was selling or still available in Canada about 1957 as indicated above? Or was this pristine looking set a donation from a dealers new old stock about 1957?

UPDATE, August 28, 2018
An eye whitness account from an owner of an Admiral C1617A which appeared in a VideoKarma forum post.
"I guess I'm one of the few who ever saw a color picture on a 15G set, back when they were still "new." It was on our 15G Admiral and I'm reminded how tricky it was to get a decent picture – in Wichita, Kansas, over-the-air. At that time, about 1957, those sets were already obsolete and we bought ours for $65. The seller had won it in a contest and had less than zero interest in keeping it. (Few 15G's were ever sold and I've always wondered how many of those Admirals were ever manufactured – let alone, sold.)
But I was just young enough and naive enough to believe that I could impress the neighbors with COLOR TV. It was primitive but it was fun. Not easy to watch a world series on that little screen. I was always trying to tweak the convergence and purity – with no instrumentation to assist. The only repair I remember was ordering a replacement focus control; the original couldn't hold up to the load on it. Eventually my teenage interests moved on and I don't even remember the final disposition of that set. I probably used the proceeds to "fix up" my first car."
Roger Dreyfoos
I'm sure the debate will continue, but we believe the above information proves that the Admiral C1617A was the first all electronic color television offered for sale to the public. Westinghouse disputes this, saying their first color set was the first to be mass produced in meaningful numbers; but an Admiral spokesperson told a Chicago Daily News reporter that as of January 7, 1954, the company "was producing 1000 color sets".
When we search the internet, we find the first color sets sold was on such and such date. It was either the Admiral, Westinghouse or the RCA set. How do these reports know that the color set "sold". Did the reporters verify by interviewing the buyer or seller? I don't think so. What we should be reporting is, "when was the first color television offered for sale". The first documented evidence we found so far of a purchase of the Admiral C1617A occurred sometime prior to May 16, 1954 by the owner of a television service shop in Texas and a week later by the owner of a cocktail lounge in the Chicago area and several other sets installed in private homes in the Chicago area.
The set was engineered and developed in Chicago and Palo Alto, Ca. The chassis and construction of the set show it was not an RCA clone although it used an RCA engineered CRT. We have shown that an Admiral C1617A was on display in a Maryland store on January 6, 1954 and we have proof the set was offered for sale to the public in an appliance/electronic store in San Francisco on January 14, 1954, in the Pittsburg area and in Benton Harbor, Michigan as well as in Oakland, California as early as January 25, 1954. We have evidence of a price drop and second production run four months after the Admiral was first announced for sale, strong indicators that this set was offered for sale, but probably in small numbers. We found evidence of at least one service provider for this color television. We also found evidence the first production was 1000 sets with increased production in the second quarter of 1954. It appears that Admiral made the decision to stop production of their first color television about August, 1954. Consider the fact that RCA stopped production of the CT-100 approximately six months after introduction so that they could concentrate on manufacturing the "preferred color size" 21 inch color set, the RCA 21-CT-55. (The Admiral version went on sale January 5, 1955.)
During this time period, if the general buying public could purchase one, then the Admiral C1617A was indeed the first all electronic color television for sale. It does not matter if the production numbers were low. (What defines mass production? 1000? or 4400?) We will continue to search newspaper and city archives for additional information. It's possible we may find evidence of an Admiral C1617A for sale earlier then January 6, 1954. Update December 24, 2018: At least six, possibly more Admiral C1617A sets were available at six stores in the Los Angeles area as late as January, 1957. (Below)
Bottom line to correct the record, RCA certainly was the main driver in introducing color television in the United States and the CRT's used in their competitor televisions were engineered by RCA, but the fact remains, RCA was not the first to introduce color televisions to the buying public. If you count the CBS mechanical color television, then that was the first, followed by the all electronic Admiral, Westinghouse, RCA and other televisions. RCA deserves much credit, because they continued to improve, innovate and sustain color television in the United States, finally realizing a profit from their work in the early 1960's.
Still, the question remains. Why haven't more Admiral C1617A color sets been found? Perhaps it's because the set was lost in obscurity to the marketing blitz, publicity and hoopla of RCA. Admiral was overwhelmed by the name recognition of the RCA brand and it's resources. Even today, most collectors I know think of the RCA as being first and indeed many internet sites report the same. *RCA manufactured about 4400 CT-100 sets and its successor, the RCA 21CT55 manufactured about 3000 sets.* As we have seen from the above postings, Admiral manufactured about 1000 C1617A sets, remembering they had 10 sets to give away in the 1955 Lux liquid contest and needed enough samples to ship to various stores in the country. As we have shown above, the set was displayed in all portions of the country. *Today as we know it, about 146 RCA CT-100's survive, about 29 RCA 21CT55's survive and 6 Admiral C1617's survive.* Most likely, Admiral watched the slow sales of color sets, not only their own, but from RCA and stopped production just as Westinghouse and RCA did with the H840CK15 and the CT-100 color sets.
Edit: December 24, 2018. We have seen that the Admiral, Westinghouse, RCA and other brands sales of their first color offerings were dismal for the reasons given, too small of a screen, too expensive, not enough color programming and were hard to adjust. As a result, many of the Admirals manufactured went unsold. They were given away in contests and promotions. Motorola and other brands introduced a 19 inch color set for $895.00 in July, 1954 and RCA introduced a $895.00 21 inch color set in December, 1954, so why would the public want to buy a discontinued 12 1/2 inch Admiral color set? Admiral had to reduce the remaining stock to $595.00 and the set still did not sell. Where did these (so called) 1000 plus sets go? They sat in warehouses and dealer showrooms, unsold as new old stock as we have just learned, as late as 1957. (See below) The Early Television Foundation believes about 4400 RCA CT 100 sets were made, this author believes about 3500 to 4000 Westinghouse HK840CK15 were made (see our data on the Westinghouse page) and at least 1000 Admiral C1617A sets were made. We limited our search to the years 1953, 1954 and 1955. In light of the new finding by Steve Dichter, we are going to expand our search to 1956 and 1957.
*It was reported that the CBS-Columbia 12CC2 produced approximately 200 units and only sold 100 of them. The Westinghouse H840CK15 reportedly only sold 30 units in the first few months of sale and an about 200 more according to Steve McVoy of the Early Television Foundation. Low production numbers, no? Do we erase their marks in history?
Note: The above research was acquired from a small, limited database of the nations newpaper archives. As an example, we did not search the New York Times. If we can broaden the scope of the search, it might reveal interesting results. We are certain we can find additional documented sales evidence of the Admiral C1617A. Lastly, we present this evidence based on facts without bias.
*Citation, Early Television Foundation.
July 16, 2017 Addendum: We found evidence the first public offering for sale of an Admiral C1617A occurred December 18, 1953.
UPDATE, DECEMBER 24, 2018
Steve Dichter posted this advertisement from a Los Angeles area newspaper, which lends credence that Admiral really did manufacture at least 1000 units of the Admiral C1617A. This appears to be new old stock still available in 1957, rembering this Admiral's production stopped about August, 1954. It's interesting to note that the two examples in a Canadian museum state "circa 1957". I wonder how many ads like this one existed nationwide? They are there to be discovered.
UPDATE January 7, 2019
Because of Steve's find, we were inspired to search our newspaper archive and found two additional Dorn advertisements. The first from the Los Angeles Times, January 31, 1957 indicating the Admiral was on display at six stores in the Los Angeles area.
The second advertisement was found in the Covina Argus, Covina, California, March 7, 1957 with a price reduction down to an incredible (for the time) $199.95.

In the 1700s, the York Road through Bucks County was the only road between Philadelphia and New York, hence its name. During the Revolution, the easiest way for the troops to traverse the area and cross the Delaware River was through the county. There are many places along the road and near it that were important during this time. The Continental army passed through at least twice, before the Christmas crossing and the Battle of Trenton in December 1776 and before the Battle of Monmouth in June 1778.


San Bernardino officials — from city hall to law enforcement — are distancing themselves from City Attorney James Penman'sstatements last week that financial documents had been falsified in at least 13 of the last 16 years, making it appear the city was in rosier condition.
As San Bernardino headed toward bankruptcy, Penman alluded to investigations by the police department as well as the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department and the District Attorney's Office. But Sheriff Rod Hoops told the Riverside Press-Enterprise that the multi-agency investigation was not related to the pending bankruptcy. City officials surmised that the probe centered on alleged bid-rigging by two employees.
Gwendolyn Waters, acting assistant city manager and a police captain, told the Watchdog that she didn't believe authorities were looking at budget-related crimes. Sure, accounting errors had been made, numbers transposed, but nothing sinister, she said.
Waters said no one should be surprised by San Bernardino's fiscal crisis.
Simply put, for years the huge bedroom city of 211,674 had milked its reserves and borrowed from other funds because its revenues couldn't keep up with expenditures, Waters said. Now they're worried about making the July payroll.
The Watchdog examined the most recent available audited financial reports for San Bernardino and found plenty of indications that the city was in trouble. For instance, unrestricted net assets — that is the cash available to backfill the budget – has been in a deficit for at least 10 years, hitting negative $181 million in 2010. The general fund reserve has steadily dwindled, finally running out in 2009-10. And for years, expenditures have outpaced revenues. While the numbers screamed trouble, auditors offered no warning of the financial iceberg looming ahead.
"It's just less-than-best industry practices over a long period of time," Waters said.
San Bernardino Mayor Pat Morris also put little stock in Penman's allegations.
While Penman did not mention any names, the Voice of Orange County pointed to Huntington Beach City Manager Fred Wilson, who was San Bernardino's top administrator for 12 years before coming to Orange County in 2008. Wilson had worked in various positions for San Bernardino for 21 years.
Reached by the Watchdog, Penman would not back off his assertions that the books were cooked, but said he did not suspect Wilson.
"Fred Wilson is an honest gentleman of uncompromising integrity," Penman said.
We talked with Wilson this week and he aggressively denied his former staff doctored the books — or even borrowed from workers compensation and liability insurance funds to balance spending, a tactic used by his successors in San Bernardino.
Wilson said San Bernardino had long struggled, but always delivered a balanced budget under his watch. He said the city's march to bankruptcy began after he left in 2008, the same year the recession struck. A depressed real estate market, a 15.7-percent unemployment rate (one of the highest in the state), lackluster consumer spending, increased pension costs and the demise of redevelopment revenue put San Bernardino on the ropes — not poor budgeting during his tenure, Wilson said.
A budget analysis prepared by city officials in June shows the depths of San Bernardino's dollar dilemma.
Employees have been cut by 20 percent over the last three years, while their unions agreed to $10 million annually in concessions. That agreement, however, ends this year, meaning the city has to start paying the $10 million.
Sales tax revenues are falling by $10 million to $16 million a year. Meanwhile accountants found that the general fund surplus was erroneously overstated for the past two fiscal years. Budget planners reported the general fund had a surplus of $2 million in fiscal 2011-12, when it actually had a deficit of $1.1 million.

Creating a role
Multi-tenanting
Complex multi-tenanting
Role properties
Brand name and domain
Organising users into groups for better management
System Owner
The primary purpose of roles is to apply privileges to groups of users, rather than applying them individually. That makes managing large numbers of users easier and also more secure as it's easy to see which privileges each type of user has and which they don't.
Roles have some other important uses, such as multi-tenanting, described below.
Expand the Administration menu in the lefthand sidebar
Click roles. You'll see a list of existing roles
Click the plus button in the toolbar at the top
You should now see an editing screen with the details of the role you just created. You can give it a name and there are a few options:
Allow Export
Referrs to exporting to spreadsheet - see spreadsheet exports
Allow global editing Users with edit privileges on a particular table, when added to this role, will be able to perform global edits on the data.
To perform a global edit, the user should
filter the view (by typing into the filter boxes at the top of each column) to narrow down the rows to those which should be edited
double click on a column header in a view, to edit the data in that field. The field must be from the view's parent table.
click the 'edit filtered' button which appears
type in the value you want to apply and follow through the prompts
User Visibility and Restrict Data Access
These are used to set up multi-tenanting
Tick each user to add them to the role. Users will gain all the privileges defined by the role.
Select the table privileges which will apply to members.
Privileges are additive - if a user is a member of multiple roles, they gain all the privileges from each of those roles added together.
Multi-tenanting is the ability to separate users into groups who can't see each other's data. This can be used for example to allow different sets of companies, clubs, or membership groups (or whatever the organisational group is) to use the same system features whilst remaining separate from each other.
Multi-tenanting is a powerful feature that can be used not just for customers to segragate data amongst their users.
Partners can also use this facility if building software to widely market. In that case, each customer they sign up can very quickly be set up with their own private dataset, whilst the partner retains the ability to add features which will automatically apply to everyone.
To set up multi-tenanting:
first add a text field to all tables in the system for which you want data to be segragated. The field must be named the same in every table, for example's sake here let's assume it's called 'account name'.
Then create one role for each set of users who you want to segregate. We'll assume there's one called 'Customer A'.
In the role details screen for the Customer A role, tick user visibility. That means that users in this role won't see users in other roles with the same option ticked. In other words, users from Customer A won't be able to select Customer B or Customer C users when doing things like adding comments or assigning users to records.
Under restrict data access in the role details, enter account name = Customer A
Finally, ensure the account name field is present in all views based on the table. When creating a view, any fields used for multi-tenanting will automatically be added but you may need to retro-fit any existing views.
This has two effects -
When a user assigned to the Customer A role creates a new record in one of the multi-tenanting tables, the account name field will automatically be populated with the value Customer A (as entered under restrict data access). The field will be invisible to them - they won't be able to see or edit the value.
When looking at records in a view, a filter will be automatically applied so the user only sees records where account name = Customer A.
Users who aren't a member of the role will see the account name field in the data editing form and in views. This can be useful for allowing e.g. group managers to see all data.
If any multi-tenanting roles are set up, then views which don't contain a multi-tenanting field will be marked in red in the administration interface, as a warning. If a multi-tenanting user loads one of these views, they will see all records. Typically, practically all views will need the multi-tenanting field to be present.
Users may be a member of more than one multi-tenanting role. For example you may use two multi-tenanting fields/roles, one for a company and another for a division. Members of a company role will be able to see data from all divisions in their company and members of both a company and a division role will only be able to see data for a single division.
Multi-account (via multiple roles)
It's also possible for a user to be a member of multiple roles, all of which are set to multi-tenant on the same field, with different values. E.g. if a user is a member of Company A and Company B roles as in our example above, they will see data from those two companies when viewing records, but not Company C.
This works best when the user has read-only privileges on the data, e.g. for a manager reporting on those two companies. They can view records but not add new records, as the system is unable to determine the value of the account name field to use.
Multi-account (via contains filtering)
It's also possible to define a role filter under restrict data access with a 'contains' rather than an '=' filter. You can then use a naming convension for your account name values to allow members of this role to see multiple accounts. As above, users of this role will need to be read-only on the data.
API setup
In a multi-tenanting account, it's possible to create new tenants, with users, by API, as opposed to the manual actions of an administrator. See Creating user accounts with the API.
These two options allow system emails (password reset notification etc.) to come from a domain name of your choice and be branded with a particular 'app' name. This can be useful if you're creating a public-facing app using agileBase, rather than applications for your own staff.
To allow the domain name to work, you'll need to contact us to set it up - our server will need to be authorised to send email from your domain.
It's possible to add custom menu items into the user menu (the one at the top right that appears if you click your user icon). That means if your company has specific help pages or process documentation relevant to your organisation or application, you can make them available from within agileBase.
Each custom menu has a title, description and URL, which will be opened in a new tab when the menu item's chosen.
Simply add these into the menu title, menu description and menu URL properties of a role. Assigning that role to a user will add the menu item to their profile menu.
To add multiple menu items to a user or users, assign multiple roles, each with one menu item defined.
