Пётр Михайлович Корышев (1903—1948) — командир 1-го батальона 1176-го стрелкового полка 350-й стрелковой Житомирской ордена Богдана Хмельницкого дивизии 13-й армии 1-го Украинского фронта, капитан.

Биография
Родился 23 августа 1903 года в деревне Ярушино ныне Пестяковского района Ивановской области в крестьянской семье. Русский.

Рано остался сиротой и, едва успев окончить начальную школу, вынужден был самостоятельно зарабатывать на хлеб.

Участвовал в Гражданской войне. По заданию Советской власти в Симбирской губернии участвовал в продразверстке. После гражданской войны Петр Корышев вернулся в родные края. Работал столяром на текстильных фабриках в городах Южа, Родники.

В 1925 году Корышев был призван в Красную Армию. Начав службу рядовым красноармейцем, вскоре был назначен командиром отделения, а затем помощником командира взвода. После демобилизации в 1929 году Корышев уехал в город Растяпино Горьковской области (г. Дзержинск, Нижегородской области). Работал инструктором Осоавиахима, одновременно учился на рабфаке. Много внимания уделял личной военной подготовке. В 1938 году ему было присвоено звание лейтенанта запаса. В 1940 году вступил в ВКП(б).

В ноябре 1941 года лейтенант Корышев вновь призван в армию. В начале попал на курсы комсостава и только летом 1942 года был направлен в действующую армию командиром стрелковой роты.

В составе 433-го стрелкового полка рота Корышева в августе 1942 года участвовала в ожесточенных оборонительных боях на подступах к городу Сталинграду. Здесь, в сентябре 1942 года, он был тяжело ранен и на фронт вернулся только через несколько месяцев.

Во время наступательных боев на Украине старший лейтенант Корышев личным примером вдохновлял бойцов. Под станцией Лозовой, во время штурма опорного пункта немцев, был тяжело ранен, но не ушёл с поля боя до тех пор, пока не была выполнена боевая задача.

В марте 1944 года, в наступательных боях по освобождению Правобережной Украины старший лейтенант Корышев уже командовал 1-м батальоном 1176-го стрелкового полка. Стремительными ударами его бойцы выбили врага из укрепленных пунктов Рудка, Остра Гора. За воинскую доблесть и самоотверженность приказом командующего 13-й армией генерал-лейтенанта Пухова Корышев был награждён орденом Отечественной войны II степени.

Особо отличился комбат Корышев в Львовско-Сандомирской операции. В ходе форсирования рек Западный Буг, Сан, Висла в полную силу сказалось его воинское мастерство. 13 июля 1944 года утром батальон под командованием капитана Корышева первым в пятичасовом ожесточенном бою прорвал глубоко эшелонированную оборону противника, пять суток преследовал врага и вышел к реке Западный Буг. В ночь на 18 июля батальон Корышева успешно форсировал реку, сбил врага с укрепленных позиций и на его плечах, с ходу ворвался в город Крыстынополь (ныне Червоноград Львовской области). Затем, сделав обходной маневр, освободил город Белз.

Ночью 27 июля 1944 года группа захвата капитана Корышева под огнём противника, на подручных средствах форсировала реку Сан, в рукопашной схватке с врагом захватила небольшой плацдарм. К утру сюда переправился весь батальон. Бойцы отбили четыре контратаки фашистов и удержали плацдарм, обеспечив переправу других подразделений полка.

В ночь на 29 июля батальон Корышева на подручных средствах под ружейно-пулеметным и минометным огнём переправился на левый берег Вислы у населенного пункта Лонжак (юго-западнее города Сандомир, Польша). В течение дня гитлеровцы восемь раз контратаковали рубежи, занятые батальоном. Капитан Корышев личным примером увлекал бойцов в атаки, умело действовал как боец. Гранатой он уничтожил пулеметный расчет, очередями из автомата скосил десяток гитлеровцев, участвовал в рукопашных схватках. Плацдарм был удержан. 31 июля батальон с боем вошёл в город Копшивницу и очистил его от фашистских войск.

В 1945 году майор Корышев уволен в запас. Жил и работал в городе г. Дзержинске, Нижегородской области.

Умер 23 декабря 1948 года.

Working with teams we start exploring what is needed together with the manager and a few team members. What do you like to achieve with this team program? When is it successful? What do you like to experience different from now during work after the team program?
We regularly work with a variation on "The 10 Principles of work and life", named "The 10 habits of High Performance Teams". Together we explore what habits may be a lever to lead to for example more engagement, increased work pleasure or improved results.
Imagine team members who take responsibility. Having clear values that are aligned with an explicit vision for the team, in which all team members recognize some compatibility with their personal values. There is a base of trust that makes it possible to have a healthy conflict when this contributes to achieve better results together. Engaged team members who are fully committed to "Be on Mission" together by using their full potential and holding each other accountable to come to optimal team results. And last but not least take care to regurarly reenergize as a team and individual.
We explore the potential of the team and the individual team members, and find out how the team can make better use of them. We facilitate you to define a concrete and actionable mission statement for your team.
What themes are relevant in the organization in the field of leadership and change? Together with a reflection of the organization we like to investigate why there is a need or desire for change, what needs to be the effect of this change in the end and what needs to be done differently. To then jointly map out who is involved and to determine how this can be achieved.
When all of this seems clear a clear and understandable story needs to be defined for all employees and optional your customers as well. Next step is to facilitate the management to get commitment to this story and be able to understand it, tell it to their people in a clear and credible way and transform the story to the impact of daily work for the team and each individual. What do we / do I need to do different starting tomorrow? What is needed to realize this?
Our starting point is that the organization needs to be the driver of the change itself, we simply like to facilitate this process where adding value is possible.

Six-channel A/D does simultaneous sampling
Milpitas, Calif. — Linear Technology Corp.'s 14-bit, 600 Ksamples per second analog-to-digital (A/D) converter with six simultaneous sampling differential inputs draws 5 milliamps from a single 3-volt supply.
This 3-wire serial A/D converter offers typical power dissipation of 15 milliwatts. The LTC1408 is available in a 32-pin (5 x 5-mm) QFN package. With less than 1/10th the power consumption and 1/5th the package size of the nearest competitor, the LTC1408 allows the design of compact, battery-powered, and portable data acquisition systems, the company said. The six simultaneously sampled differential inputs make this device practical for multiphase power measurement, multiphase motor control, data acquisition systems, and uninterruptible power supplies.
When the LTC1408 A/D converter is not converting, power dissipation can be further reduced to 3.3 milliwatts in nap mode with the internal 2.5-volt reference remaining active, and to 6 microwatts in sleep mode, with all internal circuitry powered down. The internal reference can also be overdriven with an external reference, up to the analog supply voltage.
The LTC1408 converter uses three input-select lines to configure the number of differential inputs converted. Thus, higher speeds are possible, from one differential input at 600 Ksamples/s to six differential inputs at 100 Ksamples/s. The six conversion results are delivered sequentially to a high speed digital signal processing (DSP) serial port via a 3-wire interface. This A/D converter also features a separate digital output power supply pin and a bipolar/unipolar pin to select ±1.25-V bipolar or 0 V to 2.5 V unipolar input ranges.
See related block diagram
The LTC1408 A/D converter is available in the commercial and industrial temperature ranges. Pricing begins at $8.95 in 1,000-piece quantities. Click here for the LTC1408 data sheet.
Linear Technology Corp. , 1-800-454-6327, www.Linear.com.
Simultaneous sampling is what makes these A/D converters stand out. There are only a small number of A/D converters that can do simultaneous sampling. "This is a dedicated architecture for the application because it requires a lot more circuitry," said Todd Nelson, product marketing manager of LTC's mixed-signal products.
Previously, LTC provided A/D converters with a lot of multiplexed input channels. There's a big difference between multiplexed inputs and simultaneous sampling. With multiplexed input parts, for example, there is a single A/D converter with a single sample and hold (S/H) amplifier, and a multiplexer in front of it to select the number of channels needed. "That way, channels are measured sequentially — one at a time and they are all delayed slightly in time. This is fine for most applications — but when the phase relationship of multiple channels is important, the time delay can cause system-level problems," Nelson said.
With the LTC1408 A/D converter, however, there are six S/Hs in the circuit so the converter will grab the sample at each input and hold it. "This way you can sequentially convert each channel — and the output will reflect what the signals were all at the same time. The six S/Hs capture the six signals at the exact time. Then, the conversion takes place sequentially but the data can be compared directly because it was sampled with no time delay," Nelson explained.
LTC made a similar part a few years ago with two channels of simultaneous sampling. The LTC1407 targeted different applications though. "Its much higher speed (3 Msamples/s) lends itself to narrow-band applications like communications," Nelson said.
Some applications require simultaneous sampling. Either multiple A/D converters or multiple external S/H amplifiers without multiplexers were used to achieve the same result previously, according to Nelson. Sampling multiple inputs at the same time to preserve a phase relationship such as a three-phase power measurement or motor control application where you measure voltage and current are two such applications that require simultaneous sampling. "In motor control, voltage and current need to be measured simultaneously because algorithms won't work with multiplexed parts," Nelson said. "The errors caused by the phase delay or the errors in time can cause instability in the control loop — leading to excess vibration and wear if not more serious problems," he added.
LTC isn't saying that this is the only six-channel A/D converter around. LTC is addressing the need for smaller, lower power six-channel A/D converters with the LTC1408, Nelson said. "Typical parts out there that perform similar functions are five times bigger and consume three times more power," he said. The device, packaged in a 32-pin, 5 x 5-mm QFN, draws only 5 mA from a single 3-V supply.
Another unique aspect of the LTC part is that it's more flexible than it appears. On the surface, it looks like a six-channel A/D converter. If, however, only four channels are needed, the part can be configured for only four channels — without sacrificing any speed, Nelson said. "You could measure voltage and current on two signals instead of three, for instance. Usually, a part like this wouldn't be flexible. It would be a fixed function to simultaneously sample a specific number of channels," he said.

A home assessment will not be significantly different from one done in their offices, the PIP Claim guide has sections on the assessment and the questions you are likely to be asked.
Maggs, if this gets through moderation and you see it in time, all I can suggest, based on having participated in one last summer, is that if possible you have someone else with you who can take notes on what's being asked and what your answers are. Then you will have something to compare against the HP's report if you need to go for a mandatory reconsideration. Always better to be safe rather than sorry!
Also, as soon as appropriate after the assessment, fill in the post-assessment report form which I think is at the end of the B&W PDF - note down how you were feeling, how the assessment was conducted, whether you had any after-effects, and so on. It'll probably take months for your case to be completely dealt with, by which time you may have forgotten these things if you haven't written them down.
Do bear in mind that your home environment is probably less stressful for you than attending a f2f at a centre miles away, and that depending on what your health problems are they may be less obvious to the HP than they would be if you were somewhere else, so you may need to emphasise and explain the effects of your condition a bit more, especially in relation to the descriptors you've claimed. Also remember that the HP may report on anything which happens between his/her arrival and departure, even if you think the assessment is over.

Q: Could we make a form in dynamics CRM that will be based on an another? I wonder is it possible to create a form which will based on an another.
for example, I'm creating a new account and, initially, I know that I have to create about 10 accounts yet. The point is that, all of them have pretty the same data (address, country, cellphone number...)
So, I think it will much better if I had a feature that allow me to create another account by opening the same form and just edit/add data that is distinct.
Have anyone faced that issue?

A: See the next two options for do that, take a look:

*

*Without code - Work with self-referencing relationship and manage the mappings.

*Javascript Code - This way is a new way to open a entity form, and if we pass null to id created a new record of that entity, and you can pass default values. Only works at least in rollup 8.

A: You could add a button on the Account form ribbon called "New Account".
The button could call a JavaScript function that pops a new Account and populates it with every value from the current record.
Alternatively you could add a lookup to another Account called "Account Template".
Code is waiting on-change of the lookup and populates the form with all the attribute values from the "Account Template" Account.

A: I guess you are looking to clone the entities of an existing record so that you can create a new record with least efforts of entering the same data. If that is your problem, you have a readymade solution available... check Record Clone add for Dynamics CRM here... You can also try it for free of cost : https://www.iotap.com/ProductDetail/tabid/788/ProductID/28/RecordClone-CRM2011-FREETRIAL/Default.aspx

State and Federal Relationships: Always Negotiating
Christopher F. Koller
The Flood of Medical Debt and JP Morgan
Fifty Years of Trust Research in Health Care: What Does It Mean for Policymakers?
Let My Love Open the Door: Reflections for State Leaders
Back to The View from Here
The hip-hop Broadway musical about Alexander Hamilton's life may be the hottest ticket in town, but Hamilton's well-known advocacy for a strong national government is not getting much love on the campaign trail or in political discourse. The views of his perennial foe, James Madison, are faring much better. Dwelling on the tyranny and incompetence of the federal government is all the rage—whether the topic is the Affordable Care Act or firearm violence.
This centuries-old debate was on my mind last month when our Reforming States Group (RSG) Steering Committee met for two days in Washington, DC. In addition to reviewing recent work and setting the direction for upcoming RSG projects, the bipartisan group of state legislators and executive branch officials met and had informal discussions with two different sets of senior federal administration officials from across the spectrum of health and human services.
It was a setup for a showdown. If there is one thing Republicans and Democrats from the states can agree on, it is the agony of dealing with federal officials. When you are in state government, the concern is not that the federal government can steal your liberty, but that it can suffocate it with rules and paperwork, and delayed and ambiguous interpretations.
And so our guests—who implement critical federal policy in Medicaid, housing, aging, and food stamps, among other topics—walked into the lion's den, facing off with 25 scarred veterans (or victims) of repeated negotiations with the federal government.
And you know what? There was no loss of life, limb, or liberty. As the two groups interacted, a deeper perspective emerged about the necessary, even productive, tensions between them and the interconnectedness of their work.
While much attention is paid to the passing of federal legislation, most of the exchange between federal and state officials takes place in the implementation and administration of these laws. In negotiating terms for Medicaid payments, applying for and administering federal grants, coordinating regulatory enforcement, and countless other daily activities, state and federal agencies interact in constructive or destructive ways that help or hinder the people they serve. These interactions create the stereotypes that often characterize state-federal relations: cautious, rules-obsessed federal bureaucrats and sloppy state officials, who are looking for money and authority with as few conditions as possible.
The discussions touched on these stereotypes, but also focused on shared policy goals that both groups are attempting to address—improving the health of specific populations. The conversations highlighted the skills required of both federal and state officials in working with one another to meet those goals. I came away with a few impressions:
Leadership matters. The leaders we elect in national and state elections appoint agency officials who reflect their values. These officials set the vision and values for their agencies. They create environments that make it easier or harder for career civil servants to do their work. While some of these civil servants are counting the days to their retirement, the majority are committed to public service and looking for leadership that will enable them to fulfill their responsibilities and do meaningful work.
National laws set standards that must be interpreted. The tension between local variability and national consistency is woven into our constitution—whether we were debating slavery 160 years ago or access to health insurance now. Federal and state officials constantly try to interpret how much latitude a federal regulation gives a state, for example when negotiating terms for Medicaid expansion or applying fair housing standards.
The results of such interpretation and negotiation may rarely rise to tyranny, but can create real conflict. I hear it in the exasperation of federal officials who, for instance, see impoverished people with varying levels of access to services ("Where you live makes a difference," one attendee proclaimed) and in state officials who wrestle with inconsistent and arbitrary application of federal laws to local settings.
Partnerships are real if not easy. You cannot attend a public event with state and federal officials without hearing reference to a "partnership." Watch carefully for lip-tightening and averted eyes. Sorting out responsibilities and authority is hard work. It requires a strong sense of goals, strategic thinking, and the ability to build productive relationships. Each party has to understand the motivations and limitations of the other. Trust has to be built and reinforced. Communications have to be direct—requests are easier to understand when they are clear. In response, it is often better to hear "no" or "yes, if," rather than "perhaps" or "it depends."
Often the responsibility for building and maintaining these partnerships rests not with appointed leaders who will soon depart, but with the career staff who serve under them.
In the work of improving population health, the good news is that state and federal governments need one another. This has never been more true than in implementing the Affordable Care Act. The federal government may have the purse, but the states have the legislators and regulators who expand or constrain Medicaid, protect patients, and oversee commercial insurance, public health, and health care providers.
Hamilton and Madison did not resolve their differences on the appropriate limits of federal reach. They moved from partnership to conflict as they worked to establish the country. Our nation's governing structures were stronger as a result of this tension. State and federal officials similarly are always negotiating their respective roles and responsibilities as they help citizens—and their communities—live long and full lives.


continued to fight until his death around 1780.
Logan was a prominent Cayuga leader. He was a war leader but often urged his fellow Cayuga not to attack whites settling in the Ohio Country. His attitude changed on May 3, 1774, when a group of Virginia settlers murdered approximately one dozen Cayuga. Among them were Logan's mother and sister. Logan demanded that the Cayugas and their allies, principally the Shawnee, take revenge for the deaths of his loved ones. Cornstalk, one of the important leaders of the Shawnee, still called for peace, but Logan ignored him. He conducted raids in western Pennsylvania, killing thirteen whites in retaliation for the deaths of the Cayuga. Logan's attacks, plus mounting aggression from encroaching Anglo-American settler-colonists, culminated in Lord Dunsmore's War .
The English eventually defeated the Cayuga, and the two sides met near Chillicothe to determine peace terms. Logan refused to attend but did send a speech known as "Logan's Lament." Simon Girty, an Englishman kidnapped by the natives and then raised as one of their own, may have read it at the conference. It became one of the most famous speeches by an American Indian in American history.
Logan spent the remainder of his life trying to prevent white settlers from moving into the Ohio Country. During the American Revolution, he continued to raid white settlements in Pennsylvania. Most accounts describe Logan as becoming despondent and turning to alcohol after his family's murder. He probably died around 1780.
Logan's Iruoquoian name continues to be the subject of some dispute. He has been identified over the past two centuries as Tah-ga-jute, Tachnechdorus, Soyechtowa, Tocaniodoragon and Talgayeeta.

Q: How to make static methods inheritable? I need to do some meta-programming and have to inherit from a function class wrapper. It works well, except that it won't recognises that static methods were also inherited. They are there, but TypeScript can't see it. How can I make it work
TypeScript Playground
class A {
  method() {}
  static staticMethod() {}
}

export interface AConstructor {
  new(): A
}

export function classA(): AConstructor {
  return A
}

class B extends classA() {}

new B().method()
B.staticMethod() // <= error here

A: Your problem is not so much with inheritance. Static methods will be accessible on derived classes by default.
Your problem is with the signature of classA. It returns just a constructor that returns A and no other methods. Use typeof A or add the static methods to the interface :
class A {
  method() {}
  static staticMethod() {}
}

export interface AConstructor {
  new(): A
  staticMethod(): void // No static modifier here
}

export function classA(): AConstructor {
  return A
}

class B extends classA() {}

new B().method()
B.staticMethod()

This could also work:
export function classA(): typeof A {
  return A
}

Or just let inference do its job:
export function classA() {
  return A
}


This woman suffered a stroke 7 months ago and was completely paralyzed on one side of her body. The Lord healed her instantly when we prayed for her. Her husband, her daughter and people from the village were all rejoicing and thanking Jesus!
Ben Dunn shares the story of how his wife Stephanie was healed of paralysis. The doctors had given her up to a wheelchair for the rest of her life, or at best, a walker or cane. Miraculously healed by supernatural glory of the Lord, in Jesus' name.
I am thrilled to no end to have in my hands a wonderful book written by Jeff Doles, Miracles and Manifestations of the Holy Spirit in the History of the Church.
This book provides documentation of the operation of spiritual gifts and manifestations of the Holy Spirit throughout the history of Christianity, just what I have been seeking for a couple of years.
As a Spirit-filled pastor of a Southern Baptist Church, I often encounter people who have been misled by erroneous doctrines and misconceptions about the Holy Spirit and His present day ministry in and through Christians. While this book does not present an argument against Cessationism; it does present a concise record of healings, miracles, and manifestations of spiritual gifts throughout the centuries since the ascension of Christ. There is abundant testimony given to demonstrate that the Holy Spirit has operated through both ordinary believers and ministers of the gospel when they dared to believe the promises of Christ in the Word of God.
My heart soars like a hawk as I read of the mighty manifestations of the Spirit in the lives of His people through the ages. I just read through a section relating multiple incidents of the word of knowledge in the ministry of Charles Spurgeon and of miracles, healings, trances and visions, and people falling out under the power of God in the ministry of John Wesley.
This is an excellent resource for any minister who hungers for the power of God to be demonstrated in his life and ministry.
Without doubt, this book will stir your heart, enlarge your vision for the work of Christ, and encourage you to trust God for miracles and healings today.


Support for knife crime awareness campaign as police crackdown on serious and organised crime.
West Mercia Police is appealing for people across Shropshire and Telford & Wrekin to 'surrender their knives' with a week-long knife surrender starting on Tuesday 18 September.
The Save a Life, Surrender Your Knife campaign will be running as part of the national Operation Sceptre knife crime awareness campaign and forms part of 'Protect' West Mercia Police's commitment to tackling serious and organised crime.
Between Tuesday 18 September and Monday 24 September West Mercia Police will have knife bins at Monkmoor Police Station in Shrewsbury and Malinsgate Police Station in Telford.
The surrender will give people the chance to dispose of any knives anonymously with no questions asked, by simply dropping it into a knife bin at their local station.
Throughout the week, local policing teams will be running events raising awareness of the dangers of knife crime. They will also maintain a zero-tolerance approach to people carrying knives - they will not show leniency to anyone stopped and found to be in possession of a knife. They will be arrested as normal and appropriate action will be taken.
Policing Lead for Shropshire and Telford & Wrekin, Chief Superintendent Kevin Purcell, said: "We are fortunate we do not experience the same level of knife crime across the county when compared to other parts of the country, but we know there have been a small number of relatively high profile incidents locally that have quite rightly caused concern to our communities. Knife crime can have a devastating effect on people's lives and one incident of knife crime is one too many.
"It not only impacts upon victims but also their family, friends and the wider community.
"It is important ourselves and our partner agencies work together to raise awareness of the dangers of carrying a knife which is why we're really pleased to be supporting the 'Save a Life, Surrender Your Knife' campaign. We will have knife surrender bins in both Shrewsbury and Telford and I would urge people to take this opportunity to anonymously deposit their knives or blades into a surrender bin and help prevent further tragedies."
West Mercia Police's support for Operation Sceptre comes as part of the force's commitment to tackling serious and organised crime (SOC) as part of 'Protect' which has seen Local Policing Priority Teams set up to tackle serious and organised crime and local policing priorities across Shropshire and Telford & Wrekin.
Launched on Monday, September 3, in its first week the team made four arrests, carried out 13 stop and searches and seized stolen property, two cars and a quantity of illegal drugs across Shropshire.
Local Policing Commander for Shropshire, Superintendent Jason Wells, has praised the work of the team so far and said it is an example of the steps police are taking to make the county even safer.
He said: "There is often a perception that serious and organised crime only happens in large urban areas but the reality is it is happening everywhere, whether it is drug supply or organised thefts and burglaries, if it involves a network of criminals working together we will do all we can to disrupt that network and want to send a clear message that we will not tolerate this happening in our county.
"The activity our new local policing priority team has carried out in its first week is an example of the robust approach we will take to pursue those suspected of being involved in this type of crime to ensure we protect our communities from harm.
"We know that some of these crimes are being carried out by a small number of local criminals and are working to target these people but what we are also seeing is an increase in travelling criminals - people coming in from outside the area to commit serious and organised crime. Together with our partner agencies we are doing all we can to prevent serious and organised crime in our county."
In Telford, petrol stations have been encouraged to sign up to We Don't Buy Crime to prevent motorists filing their vehicles with fuel and making off without paying with participating petrol stations displaying impactive signs warning people they are being watched.
Local Policing Commander for Telford, Superintendent Tom Harding, said: "While we know some people may absent-mindedly drive off unintentionally without paying for their fuel there are a number of occasions where we know it has been done deliberately with the majority of these people involved in serious and organised crime. And, in the majority of cases they are either in a stolen vehicle or in a vehicle with false number plates. By working with petrol stations we are not only sending out a warning to organised crime groups that we are watching them but we are able to take action and catch those involved.
"In addition to petrol stations, over the past few weeks we have been visiting second-hand shops encouraging them to sign up to We Don't Buy Crime and question the origin of items they buy to make sure they are not taking in stolen goods - and if they suspect the goods are stolen to let us know. By making it difficult for those involved in offences like burglary to sell on their stolen goods we can go some way to disrupting their criminality and preventing them from committing offences in the first instance."
Police say information from the public is crucial in helping tackle serious and organised crime and want people to come forward if they suspect anything suspicious or out of the ordinary - or if one of their neighbours has what appears to be unexplained wealth, for example they may have a luxury vehicle with no obvious means of paying for it.
Chief Superintendent Purcell added: "Information we receive from the public is absolutely crucial in helping us. Our local communities are our eyes and ears, particularly in our rural communities, they know what seems out of place in their local area and if they see something that seems out of the ordinary then we want to hear from them. Likewise, if anyone has a neighbour who always seems to have a new expensive looking car or a luxury lifestyle without any obvious means to pay for it, it could well be they are involved in serious and organised crime and we want to know."
Information can be reported to police online at https://www.westmercia.police.uk/article/2366/Report-a-crime or by ringing 101. Alternatively information can be reported to the independent charity Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111. If a crime is taking place or it is an emergency always ring 999.

The Government In Ferguson Tried Respecting Civil Liberties, Guess What Happened?
A stunning change happened overnight in Ferguson, Missouri after the government took a different approach to people's civil liberties in the area. Gone were the SWAT trucks and snipers. Gone were the riot shields and militaristic outfits. Gone was the hostility. And guess what? Gone was the violence.
If someone owns a gun, is that enough for law enforcement to justify violating that person's Fourth Amendment rights with a no-knock raid?

Q: persist sibling ui-views when changing state - ui-router This question is based on "How can I persist sibling ui-views when changing state" (plunker).
I try to keep a view (content) unchanged, when I change the state in the main navigation (mainNav).
The content should only be set by the sub navigation, and remain when changing the main navigation.
Is there a possibility to remain a view in ui-router, even if the state is left?
angular.module('MyApp', [
  'ui.router'
])
  .config(function($stateProvider, $urlRouterProvider) {

  $urlRouterProvider.otherwise('/');

  $stateProvider
    .state('index', {
      url: '/',
      views: {
      '@': {
        templateUrl: 'layout.html'
      },
      'mainNav@index': {
        template: 'Main3 - with sub
'
                + 'Main4 - with sub'
      },
      'subNav@index' : {
        template: '
This is the sub navigation
'
      },
      'content@index': {
        template: '
Content shared for MAINs
'
      }
    }
  })
  .state('Main3', {
    parent: 'index',
    url: '/Main3',
    views: {
      /*'mainNav': {

      },*/
      'subNav': {
        template: 'Main3.Sub1
'
        + 'Main3.Sub2'
      }
    }
  })
  .state('Main4', {
    parent: 'index',
    url: '/Main4',
    views: {
      'subNav': {
        template: 'Main4.Sub1
'
        + 'Main4.Sub2'
      }
    }
  })

   .state('Main3.Sub1', {
    url: '/Sub1',
    views: { 'content@index': { template: 'Content of Main3.Sub1' } }
  })
  .state('Main3.Sub2', {
    url: '/Sub2',
    views: { 'content@index': { template: 'Content of Main3.Sub2' } }
  })
  .state('Main4.Sub1', {
    url: '/Sub1',
    views: { 'content@index': { template: 'Content of Main4.Sub1' } }
  })
  .state('Main4.Sub2', {
    url: '/Sub2',
    views: { 'content@index': { template: 'Content of Main4.Sub2' } }
  })

});

I found Persist state when changing to another state, but it doesn't solve the problem completely. The state is persistent, but there is no consideration of remaining a view consistent when navigating to a different state.

A: Yes it is and it's quite easy however it has its limitation : store the data you need in the parent's scope.
$state.state('parent', {
     controller:'ParentController'
});

$state.state('parent.child1', {
    controller:'ChildController'
});

$state.state('parent.child2', {
    controller:'ChildController2'
});
// in Parent controller
$scope.context = {};// it important to create a intermediary field that will store the data, otherwise you might have a problem with scopes inheritance

// in Child controller
$scope.context.toto = 'titi';

// in other child controller
   $scope.context.toto = 'woof';
Note : i don' know if this will work if you use controllerAs syntax.
I personnally use it for a multi page form with next/back buttons in it.

A: Walfrat's answer seems correct. I'm just trying to elaborate, and maybe understand what you're looking for. Here's what I think you're asking for:
// app.js
...
$stateProvider
  .state('nav', {
    url: '/',
    templateUrl: 'app/templates/nav.html',
    controller: 'NavCtrl as nav',
    abstract: true
  })
  .state('nav.subNav', {
    url: 'subNav/',
    templateUrl: 'app/templates/subNav.html',
    controller: 'subNavCtrl as subNav',
    abstract: true
  })
  .state('nav.subNav.index', {
    url: 'index',
    templateUrl: 'app/templates/index.html',
    controller: 'IndexCtrl as index'
  });
$urlRouterProvider.otherwise('/subNav/index');
...

In this example, you can set the default view by including abstract: true in the nav state (note: I've never tried it three states deep, but it works with two states). This may give you the effect you are looking for.
As for having sub-navigations as views, it's should be possible, but I'm not sure if it's recommended to have deep nested views like that. Is this close to what you're looking for?

SHOT of a man running down the street being chased by five deadly black attack dogs.
FLASH PAN of him crossing a busy intersection.
He JUMPS onto the hood of a car and leaps off into a flip.. The car CRASHES into another car, with a huge screeching of breaks and smashing and breaking of glass.
Man RUNS UP STAIRS. Cool visuals of the staircase.
"HOW COULD YOU FORGET YOUR LUNCH!! THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THIS WEEK!!!"
"I'm sorry mom, I've just been under a lot of pressure lately."
"YOU BETTER NOT FORGET AGAIN OR I'M GONNA KICK YOU OUT OF MY HOUSE."
The man turns and JUMPS OUT THE WINDOW, dodging clothes lines and laundary on his way down.
Somehow he lands on his feet and into a CROUCH.
He looks down at the ground, and then he looks up at you, the viewer.
He SMILES and says, "Do you know.."

I set the rule in the test as follows

Dangal, Pink, Piku to Queen: How does Hindi cinema fare on the Bechdel Test?
Traditionally, women in Indian cinema have served decorative and/or ancillary functions. Roles written for women are either as relatives or love interests of male protagonists, or require actresses to gyrate to item songs. The recent spurt in women-centric cinema brings hope to view women as diverse, multifaceted, and as humanly flawed as men.
There is some ambivalence regarding what "women-centric" means. Academic literature discerns between movies which feature women protagonists (like that in Kahaani, Gulaab Gang, Piku, Tanu Weds Manu Returns, or Finding Fanny) and movies that explore feminist concerns, female lead notwithstanding (such as Dangal, Badrinath Ki Dulhania, Pink). Yet more definitions of women-centric Bollywood could be from the perspective of women's representation in the process of film production, if we count movies directed and written by women, or otherwise had substantial numbers of female crewmembers.
How do Hindi cinema's 'women-centric' films like Piku, Queen, Pink and Dangal fare on the Bechdel test?
To evaluate women's representation in media, a popular media test called the Bechdel test is often used. Also called the Bechdel-Wallace Test, it was created by cartoonist Alison Bechdel based on inputs from Liz Wallace and the writings of Virginia Woolf. To pass the test, a film must have 1) at least two female characters, 2) who have names and speak to one another, 3) about anything other than a man. Despite the bar being set so low, so very few movies pass this test. For instance, even though they were marketed as women-centric movies, Tanu Weds Manu Returns, Highway, Revolver Rani, and Bobby Jasoos do not pass the Bechdel test.
It would help to remember that the Bechdel Test wasn't formulated to discern between feminist and non-feminist films, but only as a litmus test to demonstrate the lack of screen-space allotted to female characters in movies. It doesn't elaborate the nature of female interaction beyond its independence from male-centric topics. Its purpose was not to provide a solution to the lack of meaningful representation in movies, but to better illustrate the problem. Hence, there are movies (for instance, this one, or even this one) that pass the Bechdel test, but cannot in any way be said to portray or market female characters and bodies realistically. The issue of tokenism comes into play as well. Movies that barely pass the test generally do so on a technicality, such as female-female conversations not being specifically about men, but might still be centred around gender-stereotypical topics (such as about mothering, care-work, fashion and appearance).
The corollary of this is also true. A film that otherwise depicts strong female protagonists with robust and well-rounded character development might fail the test, simply due to a lack of additional named female characters. For instance, Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001), did not pass the Bechdel test for lack of named female characters other than Lara Croft. A critique of Tomb Raider (2001) that could well apply to Dangal is that such films portray strong female heroes that are bereft of any sort of femininity, as if to proxy the absence of a male hero with that of a badass (read: masculine) heroine. As pointed out here, Dangal in particular unambiguously portrayed a trade-off between femininity and ability when Geeta's character loses matches seemingly as a consequence of growing her hair out and painting her nails, but starts winning as soon as she reverts to the masculine, disciplined version of herself. This, despite the fact that the real Geeta Phogat dominated her opponents in pony-tails. In the movie, Geeta's success is attributed to her obedience and subservience to her father, and she is punished the first and only time she exhibits agency of her own. Such criticisms are well outside the scope of the Bechdel test.
In studying gender stereotypical portrayals in Hindi cinema, Kapoor, Bhuptani, and Agneswaran (2015) analyseddialogic content of male and female characters within three categories — top grossing, women centric, and parallel cinema. For this, they tweaked the existing Bechdel to increase its relevance to Hindi cinema, and formulated a reverse Indian Bechdel to assess male character depictions in these three genres. To qualify a reverse Bechdel, a movie would need to have "at least two men, who talk to each other, about something other than a woman, and other than stereotypical topics such as their profession, recreation such as sports, games, sex, cars, and world news such as politics or talks related to technology." Same sex conversations were coded as typical, stereotypical and non-stereotypical for males and females. On analysing male representation using the reverse Bechdel test, men enjoyed a fairly balanced representation in all three genres of films, where the content of their conversations were not dictated by gender.
On the other hand, it was interesting that there were no non-stereotypical female conversations in top-grossing movies, because there wasn't a second female character to have the conversation with! Good ol' Smurfette principle. Women centric and parallel cinema fared relatively better, depicting men and women's same sex conversations more non-stereotypically of their genders. However, overall men were clearly given a better deal across the genres, at least dialogically, with male-male conversations occurring almost thrice as many times than female-female conversations, and non-stereotypically to a greater degree than women's conversations.
Hollywood doesn't seem have it together either. Based on 3 year old data sourced from a data and statistics subreddit, 45.8 percent of Hollywood movies failed the Bechdel-Wallace test while only 9 percent failed the reverse Bechdel. However, the math on this hasn't been independently verified. Readers can check more details here.
While the Bechdel test does provide a baseline to assess frequencies of gendered representations in media, it does not tell us anything about the heterogeneity of women represented therein. While the West has evolved to creating more tests that examine diversity and inclusion from an intersectional and nuanced perspective, no such test exists for us to dissect stereotypical class, caste, religion, sexuality and gender identity, and other minority representations specific to Indian society. With commercial Hindi cinema increasingly churning out more diverse plots and complex characters, and audiences rewarding women centric and parallel cinema with their patronage, perhaps it's a good time to refine the metrics we use to classify "good" cinema, and how they represent people.
