Mr. Eggar: The Department of Trade and Industry has undertaken no formal research into defence industries diversification during the last 10 years. It will, however, be participating in a NATO advanced studies institute on defence diversification to be held in Scotland in July this year, to which it is contributing £5,662 in support of costs.
Post Offices, London
Mrs. Roche: To ask the President of the Board of Trade what discussions he or anyone in his Department has had on the future of (a) Crouch End and (b) Wood Green post offices with Post Office Counters Ltd. [16200]
Mr. Page: Decisions about the location and organisation of individual post offices are the responsibility of Post Office management, not the Government. Therefore, neither my right hon. Friend the President of the Board of Trade nor any member of my Department has had any discussions with Post Office Counters Ltd. on the future of Crouch End and Wood Green post offices.
Accounts Service Agency
Mr. McNamara: To ask the President of the Board of Trade what are the costs, in total, to his Department in relation to the contractorisation of the Accounts Service Agency; what is the breakdown of these costs between (a) the annual cost of the CSL Group Holdings Ltd. contract, (b) the annual cost of the contract monitoring unit, (c) the annual cost of the policy work transferred from the ASA to the finance and resource management division, (d) the annual cost of any other department overheads previously borne by the ASA and (e) the cost of the contracting-out process, written off over the contract period in respect of (i) redundancy or early retirement, (ii) solicitors' advice, (iii) consultancy fees and (iv) departmental costs. [15211]
Mr. Ian Taylor [holding answer 23 March 1995]: The process of contracting out the services provided by the Accounts Services Agency has yet to be completed. At this stage therefore many of the associated financial details can only be estimated. Estimates for the various elements are:
a) the annual cost of the contract with CSL Group Ltd. cannot be determined in advance. It will be a volume contract where the price paid will be determined by the level of services demanded. The schedule of rates cannot be revealed because it is commercially confidential;
b) and c) the policy work to be transferred from ASA to the finance and resource management division of DTI will be undertaken by the accounts services management unit which will also manage the contract. The annual cost of ASMU, including overheads, will be £307, 500 falling to £256,500 after the first year;
d) as a result of the contracting out of the Department's overhead attributed to accounts services will fall from £99,000 to £45,000 per annum; and
e) a breakdown of the costs of the contracting-out process could reveal information of a confidential nature, both commercial and personal. The estimated annualised total cost of the items requested is £163,000.
Defence Export Licences
Mr. Fatchett: To ask the President of the Board of Trade if he will list the items of surplus Ministry of Defence equipment for which an export licence was granted in the last year for which information is available, giving the total number of items involved and the recipient of the export licences in each case. [15811]
Mr. Ian Taylor [holding answer 27 March 1995]: It has been the policy of successive Administrations not to disclose details about export licences that have been issued. In any event, it would not be possible to identify all such equipment from records.
Executive Agencies
Mr. Flynn: To ask the President of the Board of Trade if he will list the jobs that have been lost to agencies in his Department in the past two years that have (a) been taken over by contractors and (b) disappeared.
Mr. Ian Taylor [holding answer 15 March 1995]: I have asked the chief executives of the agencies to write to the hon. Member. Letter from John Hobday to Mr. Paul Flynn, dated21 March 1995: I refer to your recent question to the President of the Board of Trade concerning the loss of jobs in the Department of Trade and Industry over the past two years as a result of their being taken over by contractors and subsequently disappearing.
No jobs have been lost for this reason in the Accounts Services Agency.
Letter from David Durham to Mr. Paul Flynn, dated 28 March 1995:
You recently tabled a Parliamentary Question regarding the loss of jobs in agencies over the past two year as a result of contracting out of work.
In Companies House over the past two years there have been no jobs lost due to the employment of contractors.
Letter from Peter Joyce to Mr. Paul Flynn, dated28 March 1995: The President of the Board of Trade has asked me to reply to your question about jobs which have been lost in The Insolvency Service in the past two years.
One post has been lost as a result of work being taken over by a contractor. Forty five posts have been saved through the introduction of a computerised local office information system in The Service's Official Receivers' offices (with a further forty five posts to be saved in 1995 96). Adjustments have been made in the grading of a small number of posts to reflect changing requirements of The Service's work.
Letter from R. D. Worswick to Mr. Paul Flynn, dated 28 March 1995:
The President of the Board of Trade has asked me to reply for the Laboratory of the Government Chemist to your question about jobs lost at Agencies in the DTI during the last two years.
The number of posts in LGC has reduced by 42 since 1 April 1993, of which less than half can be attributed to having been lost due to market tests by customers in Government. During this period, however, LGC has been successful in winning work in other areas.
Letter from W. Edgar to Mr. Paul Flynn, dated28 March 1995: I would refer to your Parliamentary Question to the President to the Board of Trade concerning the number of jobs in this agency in the past two years which have been taken over by contractors or have disappeared. The only jobs which have been taken over by contractors are those associated with the reprographics unit, this resulted in the loss of 4 jobs. During the period from 1 April 1993 to the present time the reduction in staff numbers, in addition to those lost in the reprographic section has been 126. These staff reductions were found to be necessary to tailor the size of the organisation to match the market demand for our services.
Letter from Dr. Peter Clapham to Mr. Paul Flynn, dated 28 March 1995:
The President of the Board of Trade has asked me to reply to your question about jobs lost to agencies in DTI in the past two years. This reply concerns my Agency, the National Physical Laboratory (NPL).
The number of staff in NPL has reduced from 786 on 1 March 1993 to 666 on 1 March 1995. Over the same period the number of casual employees has increased from 18 to 54 and the Laboratory also currently uses 29 agency or other staff whereas the number was about 10 two years ago. Therefore some 65 posts have been lost in the last two years.
I trust this provides the information you require.
Letter from Seton Bennett to Mr. Paul Flynn, dated28 March 1995 :
The President of the Board of Trade has asked me to reply on behalf of the National Weights and Measures Laboratory to your question about jobs lost to Agencies in DTI during the last two years.
No job in this Agency has been taken over by contractors in this period, although the number of posts in NWML has been reduced from 48 on 1 April 1993 to 46 on the same date this year.
Letter from P.R.S. Harntack to Mr. Paul Flynn, dated 28 March 1995:
I have been asked to reply (with respect to the Patent Office) to a question--number 94--which you recently tabled in The House. Overall numbers in the Patent Office declined from 1,073 end of February 1993 to 964 at end February this year, so 109 posts have disappeared. These totals include staff not directly employed by the Office, but provided through clerical and IT manpower agencies. Their numbers increased from 53 to 76, so an additional 23 jobs have been `contracted out'.
No other work has been taken over by contractors during this period.
I hope that this is helpful.
Letter from Jim Norton to Mr. Paul Flynn, dated28 March 1995: As you know, I have been asked to answer, in relation to the Radiocommunications Agency, your question to the President of the Board of Trade about jobs lost to agencies in the past two years that have (a) been taken over by contractors and (b) disappeared. On 31 March 1993, the Agency had a complement of 565 with 524.5 staff in post. The comparable figures on 31 March 1994 were 580 and 534 respectively. At the present time, RA has a complement of 582 and 552.5 staff in post. During the period, following market testing, ships' radio licensing is being contracted out with effect from 1 April 1995 with the loss of 6 Agency posts.
I should emphasise that the Agency has succeeded in meeting demanding efficiency targets set by Ministers in each of the years in question. The figures reflect strongly growing demand for all the Agency's services and also delegations of management, IT and personnel functions from the Department.
Within the overall totals, posts have been moved in the Agency in response to changes in patterns of workload and in the interests of efficiency and customer service. For example, the licensing of private mobile radio has been decentralised from the Agency's headquarters to its local offices, which has improved service and been much appreciated by customers.
I hope this information is helpful to you.
Mrs. Maddock: To ask the Chairman of the Administration Committee if he has considered an application for an exhibition relating to East Dorset Schools Art to be displayed in the Upper Waiting Hall. [16932]
Mr. Michael J. Martin: I understand that under procedures agreed by the Administration Committee, arrangements have been made for the exhibition to be held in the Upper Waiting Hall from Monday 26 June to Friday 30 June 1995.
Mr. Allen: To ask the Chairman of the Information Committee, pursuant to his answer of 7 March, Official Report, column 283, whether on- site IT training for hon. Members will be provided by (a) employees of the House or (b) outside trainers brought in by hon. Members for non-PDVN training.
Mr. Waller: Details of the training have not yet been finalised. It is not expected that hon. Members will need to engage their own training staff, although it will be open to them--as now--to do so, using their office costs allowance.
Mr. Fisher: To ask the Chairman of the Accommodation and Works Committee, pursuant to his answer of 20 March, Official Report, column 50, if he will place in the Library a copy of the 1994 survey of energy efficiency.
Mr. Ray Powell. : A copy of the report by the Director of Works entitled "Energy Conservation on the Parliamentary Estate" dated 20 June 1994 is available in the Library.
Media (Office Space)
Mr. Peter Bottomley: To ask the Chairman of the Accommodation and Works Committee (1) if he will make an assessment of the relationship between office space in the Palace and the direct reporting of parliamentary speeches and answers; [16992]
(2) if he will estimate the office space available to the media in the Palace in 1975, 1985 and 1995; and what policy considerations underlie this allocation; [16991]
(3) if he will arrange for the Committee to review the need for office space for the media and recommend whether the amount should be decreased. [16993]
Mr. Ray Powell: Office space currently available to the media in the Palace of Westminster is estimated to total some 700 sq m. Comparable figures for 1975 and 1985 are unavailable, but I do not believe that the amount of space occupied has changed markedly in recent years. The Committee currently has no plans specifically to review the requirements of the media, but a study is currently being prepared on the utilisation of space on the parliamentary estate to the end of the century. The offices occupied by the media will be included in that study, which will be considered by the Committee in due course.
Audio-visual Resources
Mr. Allen: To ask the Lord President of the Council, pursuant to his answer of 9 March, Official Report , column 284 , if he will list the interested parties who are discussing the multi-media presentation of Parliament and British democracy.
Mr. Waller: I have been asked to reply. For reasons of commercial confidentiality, it would not be appropriate to list the companies involved. I shall write to the hon. Member.
Trespass (Railway Lines)
Mr. Hardy: To ask the Secretary of State for Transport how many prosecutions have been commenced during each of the past four years in cases of trespass on railway lines. [15757]
Mr. Watts: The information is as follows:
Year         |Prosecutions
|commenced
1991         |1,513
1992         |788
Rail Users Consultative Committee
Mr. Charles Kennedy: To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what is the remit of the rail users' consultative committees in respect of the right to call public inquiries into the proposed withdrawal of any ferry service; and if he will make a statement. [16721]
Mr. Watts: The statutory powers of the central rail users consultative committee and the rail users' consultative committees in respect of ferry services are set out in sections 76 to 79 of the Railways Act 1993.
Uninsured Drivers
Mr. French: To ask the Secretary of State for Transport if he will set out the policy options he has (a) considered and (b) pursued to tackle the problem of uninsured drivers.
Mr. Norris: We are considering various options with colleagues in other Government Departments, the insurance industry and the police; these include the suggestion that drivers should be required to display a windscreen insurance disc. The changes we propose to the vehicle registration and licensing system will provide for a more effective regular check on vehicles and their owners. As well as other benefits they will contribute significantly to combating the problem of motor insurance evasion.
Impact Resistance (Cars)
Mr. Channon: To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what action Her Majesty's Government is taking to ensure that the recommendations of the European experimental vehicles committee are included
in the European Commission's directive on the front and side impact resistance of cars. [16907]
Mr. Norris: We have taken every possible action to persuade the Commission to propose, and other European Union member states to support, the quickest practical implementation of the recommendations of the EEVC. To that end, we have carried out extensive research programmes and shared all the results with our European partners.
Continuous Agency
Mr. French: To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, when he expects the consultation exercise on continuous licensing to be completed. [16794]
Mr. Norris: I will be issuing consultation documents tomorrow, 29 March, outlining changes to the vehicle licensing and registration system. Copies will be placed in the Library and the Vote Office.
Bridge Works
Mr. Dowd: To ask the Secretary of State for Transport when his Department will approve the funding for the bridge works at Southend lane, London SE26, and when he expects the road improvement scheme to commence and finish. [16175]
Mr. Norris: A scheme including the reconstruction of the bridge was not successful in Lewisham's transport policies and programme bid for 1995 96. The Government office for London are discussing with Lewisham how the proposals might be modified for consideration in next year's submission. Nothing definite can be said at present about the funding or timing of the scheme.
Mr. Matthew Taylor: To ask the Secretary of State for Transport (1) what was the cost of producing and circulating the departmental annual report for each of the last 10 years in real terms; [16610] (2) what was the cost of producing and circulating the last departmental annual report; what was the circulation list; how many copies were produced; how many copies were sold; and at what price. [16609]
Mr. Norris: Departmental reports were first published in 1991. From 1994, the Department of Transport has published its report in conjunction with the Office of Passenger Rail Franchising and the Office of the Rail Regulator. The cost to the Department of publication by HMSO is as follows:
|1993-94 prices
|£
1991           |2,388
Costs for 1995 have yet to be finalised. Figures do not include costs of circulation and other internal costs, which are not recorded separately.
There were 2,100 copies of the 1995 transport report--Cm2806, published 7 March--printed. Some 1,300 copies
were produced for sale by HMSO at a price of £13.20. The remainder were circulated to Parliament and other Government Departments, and internally to staff within the Department, including its agencies.
Mr. Pike: To ask the Secretary of State for Transport if he will make a statement on theory testing within driving tests with particular reference to motorway driving. [16502]
Mr. Norris: Questions on motorway driving can be included in the session at the end of the current driving test, and will also be among the topics covered by the theory test required by the second EC directive on driver licensing. An announcement on our proposals for the new theory test will be made shortly.
Mr. Pike: To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what percentage of drivers passing their test now take voluntary motorway driving tuition; and if he will make a statement. [16503]
Mr. Norris: Information is not held centrally on the percentage of newly qualified drivers who take motorway tuition. However, motorway driving is one of the elements included in the post-test driver training scheme, "Pass Plus". That scheme was introduced on 6 February and already over 500 certificates of completion have been issued.
Airlines (Overbooking)
Mrs. Clwyd: To ask the Secretary of State for Transport (1) what action he intends to take to discourage airlines from overbooking passengers on flights; [16505]
(2) if he will discuss with British Airways its practice of overbooking passengers on flights. [16506]
Mr. Norris: It is for each airline, including British Airways, to determine its own policy on booking, according to its commercial judgment. A Council regulation provides for compulsory minimum levels of compensation to be paid to passengers with a valid ticket and a confirmed reservation on a scheduled flight departing from a Community airport who are denied boarding because the flight is overbooked.
Joint Aviation Authority
Mr. Sheerman: To ask the Secretary of State for Transport (1) what assessment he has made of the implications for the United Kingdom of adopting joint aviation authority requirements not embodied in present United Kingdom legislation through air navigation orders or other statutory instruments; [16294]
(2) what assessment he has made of the legal implications of the Civil Aviation Authority's proposals to adopt joint aviation authority regulations. [16293]
Mr. Norris: The joint aviation authorities are recognised by both the United Kingdom and the European Union as the appropriate body to harmonise European aviation safety requirements. The Civil Aviation Authority participates fully in the development of all joint aviation requirements and makes a thorough assessment of their implications. The UK will not approve a JAR unless the CAA is satisfied that it would enable the UK to maintain its very high level of aviation safety.
Sir Gerard Vaughan: To ask the Secretary of State for Transport (1) if he will consider legislation to require all cars to carry a first aid box; [16868]
(2) if he will bring forward proposals to require all first-time applicants for driving licences to have a basic knowledge of first aid before being passed for a driving licence. [16867]
Mr. Norris: We have no plans to make compulsory either first aid training for drivers or the carrying of first aid kits in cars. The "Highway Code" contains basic advice on what to do in emergencies and encourages drivers to learn about first aid from voluntary organisations and to carry first aid kits. However, basic training and equipment are of limited use for dealing with injuries in road traffic accidents and the best course of action is to summon skilled medical help as quickly as possible.
Family Services Grant Awards
Mr. Sweeney: To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will make a statement on the grant awards for1995 96 made under the child and family services grant scheme; what were the figures for 1994 95; and if he will make a statement. [17149]
Mr. Richards: I am pleased to announce that grant offers totalling £2.635 million have been made for1995 96. This compares with an equivalent figure of £2.1 million in the current financial year. This represents a 25 per cent. increase and reflects the Government's commitment to family life and values. Details of the 84 grant awards have been placed in the Library of the House.
Senior Management Review
Mr. Sweeney: To ask the Secretary of State for Wales when the senior management review of the Welsh Office will be completed. [17150]
Mr. Redwood: The review is now complete. The review report is being made available to Welsh Office staff today and I have placed copies in the Library of the House.
Historic Buildings Council for Wales
Mr. Sweeney: To ask the Secretary of State for Wales when he intends to present to Parliament the next report of the Historic Buildings Council for Wales. [17182]
Mr. Richards: The 38th report of the Historic Buildings Council for Wales has been presented to Parliament today. The report covers the financial year 1993 94 and copies have been placed in the Library of the House.
Polling and Public Survey Organisations
Mr. Donohoe: To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will make a statement on the employment of polling or public survey organisations by his Department during the current and previous financial years, on the
organisations employed by his Department, on the values of individual contracts for these services, on the total amounts of money spent and on the purposes of the research undertaken by these organisations.
Mr. Redwood [holding answer 20 March 1995]: The information requested is as follows:
Beaufort Research Ltd. , contracted by Welsh Office 1993 94 Cost: £1,292.50--collection of data for inclusion in 1993 "Digest of Welsh Statistics".
Research and Marketing Ltd. , contracted by Welsh Office 1993 94 Cost: £72,000 --to undertake the 1992 Welsh Social Survey.

Beaufort Research Ltd. , contracted by Cadw 1993 94 Cost: £11, 392 Cadw visitor survey--the third year of a three year project. Hall Harrison Cowley , contracted by Cadw 1994 95 Cost: £8,800 Cadw visitor profile research--the purpose of both contracts was to establish more information about the requirements of visitors to Cadw monuments.
Surveys are also undertaken as part of the Department's value-for-money evaluation of publicity campaigns. The following evaluation studies have been undertaken since 1 April 1993: Beaufort Research Ltd. , contracted by Central Office of Information 24 26 November 1994 Cost: £6,991-- measured the effectiveness of the parents charter booklet in Wales.
Beaufort Research Ltd. , contracted by Central Office of Information 14 February 1994 30 March 1995 Cost: £12,700--measured the effectiveness of Welsh and English language road safety advertising on bus backs in Wales.
The total cost of employing Research and Marketing Ltd. was £375,000 but £303,000 was invoiced in the 1992 93 financial year. The Welsh training and enterprise councils made a financial contribution.
Welsh training and enterprise councils and the Welsh Development Agency contributed £35,100.

How employers can find the right HR tech consultant
By Richard Stolz
July 27, 2018, 4:01 a.m. EDT
The rapid evolution of HR systems gives rise to new opportunities for employers along with new challenges in leveraging new capabilities. Christa Manning, Bersin, Deloitte Consulting's vice president and solution provider research leader, laid out the varied and changing role of HR tech consultants in helping employers harness HR tech in a recent conversation with Employee Benefit News. Edited excerpts of that conversation follow.
Employee Benefit News: What fundamental advice do you give companies looking for a technology consultant?
Manning: More companies today are expecting that the consultant they pick is going to be a partner in the long-term. So they need to ask: Do they share my company values? Should there be uncertainties or change, can they evolve with us and partner with us, as opposed to more of just a transactional service level agreement? It's important because these are bigger commitments that are supposed to be enabling business strategy.
EBN: Has the typical purpose of an engagement with an HR technology consultant changed in recent years?
Manning: Yes, a lot of the work has shifted quite a bit with the move toward software as a service, and operating in the cloud. In the past, enterprise software often required a systems integrator to implement the technology. They had to understand what your particular business complexities and customizations would require. But with the move to the cloud, all of that started to become configurable, so system developers would build the software for everyone that was using it and then, over time, add new capabilities and options. But now you can't do that much customization, so the needs are different.
EBN: Of course HR leaders still need support on system selection, or choosing a platform if they're zero-basing their HCM strategy, right?
Manning: Absolutely. There's a lot involved in terms of fully understanding the capabilities and the configuration options of cloud providers. As the core HCM platforms get to be more complex and expand in capability, some consultants are having to pay to go through official certification programs to work with them. And lots of consulting firms now have preferred relationships with particular platforms and providers. They may have co-marketing strategies.
EBN: But if I'm open to considering all platform alternatives, I wouldn't want to work with a consultant who's in a marketing relationship with one of them, would I?
Manning: There are consultants that only do sourcing and selection — and will not be involved in the implementations — to preserve that objectivity. And then certainly there are plenty that do the implementation work, and some of them will do other work around that like transformation of your processes or your HR operating model.
EBN: What about getting help more at the nuts-and-bolts level?
Manning: A lot of companies that moved to the cloud thought that the software provider was going to be doing a lot of the HR IT administration. They do certainly host servers and do some of the logistics of simply uploading the code, but you still do have to manage the applications. So now some of the consulting firms will also do application management services. After the initial implementation, after the go-live, they will — for their own type of subscription fees — be engaged with the updates that can come every month, you know, certainly every quarter or twice a year.
EBN: That must come as a bit of a shock.
Manning: That's right. The provider will push the software out there, but it's still the primary responsibility of the customer to understand what capability is coming down, understand how it needs to be configured for their organization, its policies and its risk profile, and its needs for new capabilities. There's regression testing that has to go on, integration testing and updates.
EBN: But I assume companies can get help with that from external sources if they want…
Manning: Yes, this has given rise to another area of consulting, which is application management services.
EBN: What typically prompts an HR executive to pick up the phone, call a technology consultant, and say, "I need help" or "I need a new system. Where do I start?"
Manning: What we have seen over the last decade or so, is a lot of companies either didn't have a single system for their HR department, they didn't have one that was user-friendly or really lent itself to widespread employee self-service, or they had multiple different versions because of things like M&A or just different countries choosing different payroll platforms, or other things related to talent. And so the tipping point I've seen generally is a senior executive can't get an accurate head count, or they can't do workforce planning as dynamically as they want.
EBN: What happens next?
Manning: I think we're on the cusp of another kind of wave of change where a lot of companies have actually done this but they really didn't get that transformation that they were hoping to in terms of really knowing all of their talent and being able to do better planning and matching talent to their business needs. Now they just know how many unhappy and inept people work for them, and now they have a better picture of all the things they need to do to invest in their workforce to improve the business.
EBN: Do you have any suggestions for HR executives who are having a whole new system foisted on them, perhaps because some other part of the enterprise is changing platforms, to make the transition as painless as possible?
Manning: I've talked to a lot of HR professionals that are dying to have an executive come in and champion a new HR tech strategy, because the old strategy has been so siloed and piecemeal. And to the extent that the CEO can really be crisp and clear about what they are trying to achieve, that can be very helpful. So if the goal, for example, is to get better data and analytics, that really helps you home in on the criteria to look at and the types of tools in the new system look at. Ideally you get to participate in the system selection decision-making process and start with the big picture.
EBN: How do you do that?
Manning: There is a term in the industry these days called tier zero, or "phase zero." That comes from fact that systems implementers begin with phase one — requirements gathering, and phase two would be piloting and prototyping. Phase zero now is doing that due diligence around what are you trying to do and why, and do you even need to select a certain type of technology, or is it more of a niche application, or a reconfiguration, or an extension of whatever technologies you may already have.
EBN: Do HR leaders have to manage expectations of CEOs who might believe that a new HRM system will be almost a silver bullet to solve organizational challenges beyond what they are designed to do, or are capable of doing?
Manning: I do think that companies have to be aware of the phenomenon of when you have a hammer, everything looks like a nail. So you need to make sure you understand where you are in terms of your understanding of the nature of the challenges you are trying to address, and what it will take to address them. You might want to take a step back and think more about that phase zero, because that might be the most valuable consulting you can get of all.

New Vision: A statement from the Catholic Ordinaries of the Holy Land
by Middle East & Europe - Global Ministries | published on Feb 18, 2016
The Commission for Justice and Peace met in its ordinary meeting on February 3, 2016, in Jerusalem, and reflected on the present political situation. It reflected on the human and ethical aspects, and addressed the following message.
The situation is stagnant and lifeless, with no light of hope, not for the Israelis who need security and tranquility, neither for the Palestinians who wait for the end of the Occupation, and an independent state.
The present situation for the Palestinians is inhuman. It is settlers who occupy, day after day, Palestinian land. It is the siege of Gaza for years already. One and a half million under a siege of poverty, misery and humiliation. It is also siege for the rest of Palestine and diverse hardships, political, economical and social. It is demolishing of homes. It is military check-points and the arbitrary behavior of Israeli soldiers humiliating the Palestinian. These check-points are a place of humiliation which is constructed uniquely on the logic of war, a place that magnifies hatred and death daily. It is the siege of Jerusalem and the Judaization of the city, the sending away of its Palestinian inhabitants. It is the all-inclusive accusation of terrorism against all Palestinians and the collective punishment that results from it. Today the situation has become a new Intifada in which Palestinians plunge to their death out of despair caused by a life full of frustration, humiliation and insecurity, with no hope at all.
Is Israeli society satisfied with this situation? Is it satisfied with this life in the shadow of continuing hostility with the Palestinian people?
We see that the situation is inhuman and cannot be what the Israeli would choose, neither the Palestinian. Change must take place. We say to the leaders: act for the sake of the human being, the Israeli and the Palestinian. Do not leave the situation as it is, because it is a situation that leads to death. Do not say: Palestinians are terrorists. Palestinians are people who seek to live a normal life, instead they find themselves oppressed, frustrated, deprived of the freedom God has given them. You, Israelis you want to live in security and tranquility. The Palestinians also want to live the same kind of life. What is the obstacle preventing this? Political leaders? Or their incapacity to find a practical solution that corresponds to the desire of the Israelis and the Palestinians? Both peoples can live together in peace and tranquility
We say to the Israelis leaders: enlarge your vision and your hearts. Change the situation. Shake it out of its immobility. There is enough space in the land for us all. Let all have the same dignity and equality. No occupation and no discrimination. Two peoples living together and loving each other according to the way they choose. They are able to love each other and to make peace together.
To the Palestinian leaders, we say: let the people hear, let Israel and the world hear one unique voice, a voice of peace and justice for two peoples. Redeem the land again and begin a new history. Redeem Jerusalem again, and begin a new history that conforms with its holiness and universality. Stop every self-interested vision and all corruption.
To fulfill this we need reeducation of our future generations, the Israeli generations who have grown up with the unique vision that Palestinians are all terrorists, and the Palestinian generations who have grown up seeing in the Israeli only an enemy. Let us begin all of us a new history.
Our land is holy, and the place of our daily living together. Let the two peoples live together in peace.

Q: Google Apps Script + React Web app error on button submit "Unsafe Javascript attempt...The Frame is attempting navigation of the top-level window" I am using this library (enuchi/React-Google-Apps-Script) to build an apps script web app with React. I am using a button to process form data. When a user clicks submit, I run a function to process the data. I'm not actually POSTing the data anywhere, it stays in the app.
When using type="submit" on the button, I receive the following error:
Unsafe JavaScript attempt to initiate navigation for frame with origin 'https://docs.google.com' from frame with URL 'https://localhost:3000/taxonomy-impl.html'. The frame attempting navigation of the top-level window is sandboxed, but the flag of 'allow-top-navigation' or 'allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation' is not set.
At first I thought the page refresh behavior of a submit button is triggering this, so I tested a event.preventDefault() on the button, but that did not work.
<Button type="submit" onSubmit={(event)=>{event.preventDefault()}}>Submit Form</Button>
I have been able to workaround this by removing button type="submit" and running my function onClick, however I lose the automatic HTML5 form validation if I do that. Does anyone know how I can resolve this error? Thanks!

A: Answer in aditya's comment! Onsubmit should have been on the form rather than the button.

One day, relatively early in my term as Editor-in-Chief of the Michigan Law Review, Ele Eckert came to me with a draft of a student note that had been given to our secretary for typing. The secretary had turned to Ele in despair. Page after page of yellow legal paper had been filled with minuscule pencil scratches and then elaborately decorated with even more minuscule additions and emendations. Red lines and blue lines and green lines, overlapping each other and occasionally blurring together, wove in and out among the pencil scratches. I asked the editor who had produced this colorful, if illegible, masterpiece if he could read it. "Of course not," he replied, "but it's not my job to type up manuscripts."

The event that brought more than 400,000 people to the heart of Baltimore in 2016 is back in all of its bright glory. From March 31 to April 8, thousands are migrating to Baltimore's Inner Harbor and surrounding neighborhoods to explore the various illuminated exhibits, concerts, and activities.
While a festival atmosphere with performances attracts visitors to the free seven day event, what's unique about Light City is that attendees essentially walk through one giant public art exhibit. Even the crowds enjoying the artwork is a sight worth seeing.
Many of the commissioned art installations were created by local artists, while others brought artists to Baltimore from other places to install their work. Performers, music, and even food this year feature mostly local individuals and businesses, making Light City even more hyper local and unique. For this week in March, young and old, locals and out-of-towners, and people spanning across all life stages get to appreciate the vast creative talent we're fortunate to possess in our city.
Author and Photographer Kelsey Marden is based in Baltimore. She enjoys capturing and telling the untold, overlooked stories of the city as well as the world.
Light City Baltimore is a free festival that transforms Baltimore with large-scale light installations, performances, music and innovation. Central to Light City is the BGE Light Art Walk along Baltimore's Inner Harbor, featuring more than 50 attractions including illuminated sculptures, projections, interactive technologies, performances, concerts, food vendors and a children's area. It's up in Baltimore's Inner Harbor, as well as other neighborhood projects, through April 8, 2017. Check their website for more info.

Is the End Nigh for the Neopolitan Pizza Craze?
By Kate Tighe
Pizza Rivoluzione is coming to Altrincham and they reckon it is time to take a stand against Neopolitan pizza
This summer, a revolution is coming to Blanchflower in Altrincham, in the form of Pizza Rivoluzione.
Pizza Rivoluzione is a movement away from wood-fired Neapolitan style pizza to a Roman style of focaccia pizza and pizza Romana. The biggest difference to the diner is CRUNCH!
Watching the rise of artisan pizza over the last decade there was always one thing the minds behind Pizza Rivoluzione couldn't fathom. Over the years they grew tired of floppy pizza and instead, thought back to all the variations they found when visiting Italy.
Focaccia pizza in Rome's Pizza al taglio, in Genoa where focaccia generally is king, and in Palermo's sfincione.
Pizza Rivoluzione's version is made with organic flour and has a final prove in its tray before being baked; creating a crisp exterior and a fluffy light interior. It's rare in the UK, with only a handful of restaurants serving it.
Pizza Rivoluzione have created four different delicious toppings for their focaccia such as Sunblush tomato, mozzarella, basil pesto, Parma ham, rocket, balsamic, glazed peach and Beetroot, goats' cheese, hazelnut and watercress.
The second style of pizza being served is Romana, baked initially in a pan before a final couple of the minutes on the stone.
This pizza is very thin and crispy, with Pizza Rivoluzione's version 100% organic sourdough with a mix of white, wholemeal and rye flours. Romana toppings are pushed right to the edge (unlike Neapolitan pizza).
Romana Pizza toppings include the likes of King Prawn, charred courgette, mascarpone, red chilli, Chorizo, manchego, jalapeno sriracha and Heritage tomato, smoked mozzarella, basil.
The big difference between the two is that Romana is a very recognisable pizza with the toppings baked on each pizza in the oven, whereas their focaccia pizza is mainly topped after it has finished baking. This is in line with the contemporary pizza scene happening currently in Italy.
One of the joys of Roman pizza is that there is no rulebook so there's traditionally a lot more experimentation than in Naples and the menu reflects that.
Pizza Rivoluzione reckons customers will be surprised how different the pizzas are and pizza fans must come and try for themselves.
Open Friday and Saturday evenings from May 10th to September 21st from 6-10pm, Pizza Rivoluzione will also offer a selection of appetisers and desserts. Both focaccia and Romana pizzas will be priced around £10.
Pizza Rivoluzione, Blanchflower, 12-14 Shaw's Road, Altrincham, WA14 1QU

If your by-the-numbers action/thriller is going to have any chance of standing out, you either need a bold director making a lot of interesting choices or have an exceptionally solid cast.
While "Safe House" director Daniel Espinosa does a solid job, it's not enough to lift the burden of success off the actors.
Fortunately, the movie stars Denzel Washington, who is one of the few actors in the history of film who instantly makes any movie watchable.
It's been a while since Denzel was in a truly good movie (I would argue the last was 2006's "Inside Man," although I'd hear you out if you wanted to make a case for 2007's "American Gangster").
His last three movies, "The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3," "The Book of Eli" and "Unstoppable" were way more entertaining than they had any right to be and for that Denzel deserves all the credit.
"Safe House" is a cut above those other films, although not by much. Denzel plays Tobin Frost (extra points for the awesome name), a turncoat CIA agent who has spent the past decade on the run all the while selling state secrets to the highest bidder.
When we meet Tobin, he is dodging bullets from unknown assailants on the streets of Cape Town, South Africa. Out of options, he ducks into the American consulate and turns himself in.
Seeing how he is wanted for treason and all, he is quickly whisked away to a safe house stationed by green CIA field agent Matt Weston, played by Ryan Reynolds.
I've always kind of liked Reynolds. He was being groomed as the next big Hollywood headliner until his movie-star cred took a big hit with last summer's back-to-back flops "The Green Lantern" and "The Change Up."
He may have done a bit of career salvaging here as he really impressed me with his ability to rise to the occasion and hold his own with the likes of Denzel.
Back at the safe house, all hell breaks loose when the same nameless goons from the beginning of the movie show up and Matt is forced to flee with the highly dangerous and highly motivated Tobin in tow.
Matt contacts his trio of superiors back at CIA headquarters, played by Brendan Gleeson, Vera Farmiga and Sam Shepard, who order Matt to stay mobile and hold on to Tobin until reinforcements arrive.
These three excellent character actors help keep the movie interesting when the cameras are off Washington and Reynolds, which is made even more impressive by the fact that all they are able to do is stand around a bunch of TV monitors and intently answer phone calls.
So the physical and psychological games of cat-and-mouse are on between Matt and Tobin as they evade unnamed assassins and a potential mole within the CIA.
"Safe House" is gritty, exciting, violent and predictable. It is cut from the same cloth as the "Bourne" movies, although it is nowhere near as compelling as those spy thrillers when it comes to plotting and pacing.
What it is instead, is another exceptional performance from Washington that elevates a mediocre movie, with an impressive assist from Reynolds, who digs deep and proves he has some decent acting chops himself.
"Safe House" is rated R for strong violence throughout and some language.

Take a look at the stadium promotions schedule for the Spokane Indians this summer.


UNC's J.B. Bukauskas has been lighting up the box scores with Ks since Opening Day.
A hard-throwing strikeout pitcher is one of the more fun things to watch in baseball. Unlike the days of yesteryear when giants seemingly ruled the mound, the new age of "power pitchers' come in all sizes and forms.
Here's a look at some of the more unique strikeout artists 2017 has to offer.
McKay is having one of the best all-around seasons in collegiate baseball. The 6-foot-2 junior leads in the ACC wth a .404 batting average. He also happens to be one of the finest pitchers in the land. Knowing how to control the zone on the mound helps improve his play at the plate every time he comes to bat.
"Being a pitcher, you know the strike zone a little bit more," McKay said. "When you're out there with a pretty tight strike zone, you know to force the pitcher over the plate a little bit more to give you a better chance of making solid contact and putting the ball in the gap somewhere."
Believe it or not, McKay's prowess at the plate may not be as impressive as his presence on the mound. The southpaw was on full display Thursday night in the series opener against Georgia Tech. He hurled eight shutout innings of 1-hit ball, walking just two and striking out eight. McKay now leads the ACC in ERA (1.19) and strikeouts (76), just under 13 strikeouts per nine.
"It feels good to start off the weekend like that with a quality start," McKay said. "It was just one of those days where you have everything working."
The 2015 and 2016 recipient of the John Olerud Two-Way Player of the Year Award, McKay is on pace to capture one more. He's done it behind a low-90s fastball and a well-commanded curveball with a changeup that is continuing to progress.
"In any count to get ahead I can throw a fastball, or even a curveball for a strike to start the guy off," McKay said. "From there I just move on through my arsenal, what you're feeling that day. Whatever my pitching coach is calling, I just trust whatever he's scouting and seeing. He's got a rhyme and a reason to what he's calling, so I trust that. If I got something in my mind that I want to throw in that count, I can shake it off and throw something I'm more confident in. I've probably shaken off less than ten times this whole season."
McKay seemingly allows the game to come to him, dictating each game as it unfolds. When he gets in his groove, it's best to watch out.
"I think it depends," McKay said on his mentality on the hill. "If you have a day where you are feeling great and hitting spots well, you may be a little more aggressive there."
It is remarkable in his own right that he has such command of the strike zone, despite not focusing all of his attention on the mound. It will be interesting come June to see what major league teams have in mind for McKay's future when he is drafted likely near the top of the first round.
"I initially want to try and do both as much as I can," McKay said. "If a team drafts me and says, 'you're going to be this, or you're going to be that,' I have really no preference. If somebody wants to give me a shot to play professional baseball, you're going to take it."
When one thinks of power pitchers, they think of imposing figures on the mound. Randy Johnson, Roger Clemens, and Nolan Ryan were as scary for an opposing batter to look at as they were exciting for a spectator to watch. They were all 6-foot-2 or taller.
That's no the case with UNC's Bukauskas, who stands at 6-foot-0 and 195 pounds. That hasn't stopped him one bit from packing one of the biggest punches in Division I.
Bukauskas — armed with a mid-90s fastball and plus-slider — struck out 10 batters on Opening Day and has yet to relent. He reached a career milestone this season, sitting down his 200th batter via strikeout.
He has struck out 75 batters over 51 innings as the Friday night ace, a dazzling 13.24 strikeouts-per-nine. Both numbers find him among the top ten in the nation.
While the Ragin' Cajuns' ace Gunner Leger gets most of the national attention as a member of the Golden Spike Midseason Watch List, Marks has definitely left his, well, mark.
Last season, Marks made all his appearances out of the starting rotation. He went 5-7 in 15 starts, posting 4.50 ERA and striking out 80 over 76 innings. That is a very respectable 9.5 strikeouts-per-nine mark.
This season the Ragin' Cajuns moved Marks to the bullpen and he has flourished in the role. While he is second on the team in saves (3) to Dylan Moore, he leads the team in strikeouts in just 38.1 innings out of the bullpen. He can thank his devastating slider and newfound fastball command for the spike in Ks.
Wyatt Marks takes over in 8th, uses just 1 fastball in 1-2-3 inning vs heart of CCU order. Here's my slider - good luck. 2 Ks. Great pitch.
Marks has rung up 60 batters via strikeout this season. That equates to 14.09 strikeouts-per-nine, which is second best in Division I.
Ironically enough, Lowther leaves off the 'k' at the end of his name. Perhaps that's because he saves it for the box scores.
"You can thank my mom for that one," Lowther said, laughing.
Lowther had a solid sophomore season for the Musketeers in 2016, his first as a full-time starter. He finished 7-5 with a 3.09 ERA, but seemingly got by more on finesse than power. He struck out 84 batters over 102 innings, just 7.41 per nine.
"Over the summer I was able to find that my fastball worked really well," Lowther said. "I found out guys were able to swing and miss at it more than normal. I stuck to my strengths and kept doing what I know how.
"I usually use my fastball as the get-ahead pitch, but lately my curveball has been coming around, too. It's kind of 50-50 right now between fastball and curveball."
Enter 2017, and suddenly Lowther is among the best strikeout artists in the nation. The 6-foot-2, 235 pound southpaw is striking out 13.95 batters per nine innings, sitting down 62 over his first 45 innings of the season.
His transformation hasn't gone unnoticed. Baseball America named him one of their Top 100 draft prospects, the first Musketeer to ever merit that honor.
"I think that's really cool," Lowther said. "It's all come really fast, the experience of the whole ride through it has been really fun. The people around me have made it even better. It's a really cool honor to be the first for Xavier, but the coaches and everyone around me has helped get me where I'm at. It's nice to be able to share that with them."
Lowther may just be getting started. He has struck out at least 10 batters in each of his three starts, punching out 37 in those 19.1 innings. The lefty struck out 16 over eight perfect up and down frames his last time out.
"Just seeing that I can be successful against any type of hitter with what I have and not having to do extra has really played into that confidence," Lowther said. "Before, I tried to do more and ended up screwing myself over. Now I just stay relaxed and do what I trained for."
Imposing presence on the mound? Check.
Best command in DI? Check.
Peterson is a monster on the mound for the Ducks, standing at 6-foot-6 and 235 pounds. He is also fourth in the nation with 82 strikeouts, a 12.65 strikeout-per-nine rate. What separates the big lefty from his competitors is his command.
The Ducks ace has walked just four batters this season in 52 innings heading into this weekend's big series with Arizona. His 16.40 strikeout-to-walk ratio is best in the nation and is more than one better than the next closest opponent.
A 5-0 March, backed by a 0.50 ERA and a 57-to-2 strikeout-to-walk ratio earned Peterson NCBWA Pitcher of the Month honors. It will be fun to see what he has in store for his April encore.
The 19K man: JP Sears -- the 5-foot-11, junior left-hander from The Citadel -- is striking out 13.74 batters per nine innings. He hurled a 19 strikeout, 2-hit shutout on March 24th. Sears now leads the nation with 87 strikeouts after Thursday's 10-strikeout performance.
The fast riser: Joey Murray of Kent State is the only sophomore to find himself in the top ten of strikeouts-per-nine full of major-league ready juniors.
The rookie: USF freshman Shane McClanahan is leading all newcomers with 62 strikeouts in 45.1 innings, an impressive 12.22 per nine, landing the southpaw at No. 23 in the nation.
The Most Improved Strike Thrower Award: Casey Mize -- Auburn's sophomore right-hander -- led the Tigers with 59 strikeouts in 69 innings as a freshman. This season, he again leads the team in strikouts with 82 ... in just 58.2 innings.

The state Gaming Control Board today recommended the licensing of a former MGM Grand executive to take over the operation of the fabled Tropicana Hotel Casino.
Alex Yemenidjian, who was hand-picked by major shareholder Kirk Kerkorian to serve as president and CEO of the MGM Grand, cleared a major hurdle with today's unanimous licensing vote of the Control Board, which met in Carson City.
The Nevada Gaming Commission will consider the board recommendation for final approval on June 18.
Yemenidjian is part of the Canadian private equity team Onex Corp. that has accumulated more than $200 million in principal of the senior debt of Tropicana Las Vegas Resort and Casino LLC, secured by the 1,850-room property.
Scott Butera, who has been running the nationwide Tropicana Entertainment company as chief executive, said he supported the creditor-approved reorganization plan and management of the Las Vegas property by Yemenidjian and Onex executives.
Yemenidjian would take over at the property as soon as licensing is approved.
Yemenidjian helped stabilize a struggling MGM Grand, leading to the company's acquisition of Mirage Resorts Inc. in 2000 and becoming MGM Mirage.
Kerkorian then tapped Yemenidjian to head the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer film studio and helped turn around that company's fortunes.
The new owner said he plans to spend more than $100 million to refurbish the Tropicana's rooms, casino, restaurants and convention center. A South Beach Miami tropical theme is planned.
Yemenidjian told regulators that refurbishing the property's rooms would be the easiest part of the makeover because the company could close off rooms a floor at a time without disturbing guests.
But the remodeling of other public areas, including the casino, the convention center and restaurants, would be more challenging. He said the property also would get a new nightclub and two new restaurants in the overhaul.
New slot machines with better bonusing and marketing tools are planned and the company also would take a slice of race and sports book revenue from American Wagering, which operates a Leroy's Horse and Sports Place operation there.
He said by next year he hopes to revamp and expand the casino to position its entrance by lengthening the pedestrian bridges crossing Tropicana Avenue from the MGM Grand and Las Vegas Boulevard from the Excalibur.
The renovation will be a part of the physical transformation of the Tropicana, Yemenidjian said, but the company also has overhauls planned in the operations, culture and financial sides of the business.
He promised no mass layoffs of employees, but said staff positions would be evaluated. New entertainment and new marketing also are planned, he said.
The Tropicana filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on May 5. The Las Vegas Tropicana filing was separated from sister properties in Northern Nevada, Laughlin and Atlantic City. The Las Vegas Tropicana includes 34 acres surrounding the hotel-casino.
Commenting on the footprint of the property, Yemenidjian said the biggest challenge was to analyze whether it made more sense to refurbish the core structure or to build anew, a strategy proposed by previous owners but dismissed as financially unfeasible.
Yemenidjian's team also includes Joanne Beckett, who helped in the transition of the Golden Nugget from MGM Mirage to Tim Poster and Tom Breitling and from Poster and Breitling to Landry's Restaurants Inc.

A wiring diagram is a design which utilizes abstract design symbols to exhibit each of the interconnections of components at an exceedingly system. Wiring diagrams are made up of a few things: symbols that signify the ingredients within circuit, and traces which represent the relations between them. Therefore, from wiring diagrams, you understand the relative location of the components and the way they could possibly be linked. It is a terminology engineers will need to learn anytime they operate on electronics jobs.
It's easy to get confused by wiring diagrams and schematics. Wiring diagrams chiefly reveals the physical position of connections and components inside built circuit, and not always in logic order. It emphasizes around the layout in the wires. Schematics highlight on how circuits operate logically. It reduces cells that are integrated to sub-components to create the system's functional logics easier to comprehend. It's most effective for studying the general operation of an system.
To read a wiring diagram, is in fact a program need to understand what fundamental components are contained in a very wiring diagram, and which pictorial symbols are utilized to signify them. The common components in a wiring diagram include ground, energy, cable and link, output devices, switches, resistorsand logic gate, lighting, etc.. An inventory of electrical symbols and descriptions can be obtained about the"electric symbol" page.
A line signifies a wire. Wires are used to link the constituents together. All things across the cable are identical and connected. Wires on several areas must cross each other, but that won't indicate they can connect. A black dot is then employed to tip the injunction of two lines. Main lines have been represented by L1, L2, etc.. Usually different colors are utilized to differentiate the wires. There ought to be a legend about the wiring diagram to inform you exactly what each colour signifies.
Usually circuits exceeding two parts have two basic kinds of connections: series and parallel. A series circuit is frequently a circuit where components are attached along only 1 path, so the current flows through a single component to arrive at the next one. In a series circuit, voltages add up for all those components attached in the circuit board, and currents will be the same through all elements. In a parallel circuit, every unit is directly connected to the power supply, so each device receives exactly the same voltage. The present in a really parallel circuit flows along each parallel branch and re-combines once the branches match again.
A fantastic wiring diagram has to be correct and clear to read. Be careful of all the info. For example, the diagram should demonstrate the best direction in the positive and negative terminals of each part. Use the appropriate symbols. Learn the significance in the basic circuit symbols and assess the best ones to work with. Some of the symbols have very close look. You must discover a means to tell the gaps before applying them. Draw connecting wires as straight lines. Use a dot to point line intersection, or utilize line jumps to signify cross lines that aren't connected. Label components such as resistors and capacitors making use of their worth. Be certain the text placement appears clean. In general it's better to place the positive (+) distribution to the top, along with the negative (-) distribution at the base, in addition to the logical flow from left to right. Attempt to clean up the placement reducing wire crossings.

With 40W of force the Lumsing can power up to five telephones and tablets from a solitary mains electrical plug. We perceive how the Lumsing passages against adversary desktop chargers in our Lumsing 40W 5-Port Desktop Charger. this Lumsing gadget falls in accordance with its desktop charger adversaries, for example, those from iClever and Zendure.
It's not as capable as the iClever, nevertheless the Lumsing is a match for the Zendure on spec, and accessible at the much lower cost of £13.99 from Amazon UK. This is a little dark plastic box only 92 x 58 x 28-mm and 146-g by making it a touch littler and lighter than the Zendure. Its outline is more precise, with each of the four sides loped off instead of bended.
Which outline you incline toward is all that much an individual decision, however what's critical is the tech itself. Both Lumsing and Zendure highlight five USB yields that you can use to connect up to five telephones, tablets, cameras, force banks or different gadgets that charge over USB.

Numerous USB chargers packaged with cell phones are appraised at 5W, while tablet chargers are commonly 10W. With five associated gadgets this Lumsing falls some place in the middle.
What it needs is backing for Qualcomm Quick Charge, found in desktop chargers from any semblance of Choetech, ADATA PV120 and Aukey, which bolster the essentially speedier charging empowered by Qualcomm Snapdragon processors in gadgets, for example, the HTC One M9, LG G4 and other lead telephones and tablets.
