We currently have a membership of some 60 adult singers drawn from all walks of life and from a wide geographical area, well beyond the town of Louth.
We meet weekly from September through to July to rehearse for our customary programme of four major concerts. Our aims are simple - to perform to the highest possible standards, choral music that is challenging, interesting and entertaining. We also aim to make our rehearsals fun and enjoyable.
Membership of the choir is open to all singers over the age of 16. Members pay an annual subscription (save for students where the subscription is waived) and are required to pass a simple (and unintimidating!) audition solely to ensure members are allocated to the appropriate voice section.
Rehearsals are held in the excellent Salvation Army Community Centre in Church Street, Louth, and concerts are regularly given in Louth's magnificent St James's Parish Church.
If you enjoy singing (even if only in the shower!) and would like to come along and see what we do, we would love to see you. We are a friendly society and keen to welcome new members in all voices. The first step is to contact our Membership Secretary who will be pleased to give you further information.

The hardest thing about setting up Google WiFi, which has just gone on sale in Australia, is undoing the sticky tape on the power cord.
It's a piece of tape looped around and stuck back onto itself, holding the power cable in a neat bundle, and it can be hard to find the end of the piece to unloop it.
Anyone who has ever tried to wrap Christmas presents will know what an absolute nightmare it can be, finding the end of sticky tape. I must have fumbled about with that tape for all of 15 seconds before I gave up and cut it with a knife.
So when I say that's the hardest thing about setting up Google WiFi, that says more about how easy the setup procedure is than it says about the tape.
From go to whoa (including opening the box the Google WiFi router comes in, which also has some sneaky tape on it) it took us 17 minutes to set up a WiFi network in our labs, which wouldn't be bad for a WiFi network with a single WiFi router but which is pretty remarkable when you consider we were dealing with the Google WiFi "3-pack", which gives you not one but three Google WiFi routers/access points to scatter around the far reaches of your house and create a single, meshed network that ensures you don't have any dead spots.
We've reviewed a couple of similar devices lately, including the Linksys Velop and Netgear Orbi, both of which are excellent ways to quickly create a whole-home wireless network, but with different strengths and weaknesses.
Of the three, the Google WiFi was the slowest in our tests, but it's by far the cheapest (a three-pack is $499, compared to $799 for a three-pack of the Velop and $599 for a two-pack of the Orbi) and it's also the easiest to set up.
And, compared to the Orbi in particular, the Google WiFi device is the most discrete. It's small enough (just 7cms high) you can put an access point on your mantelpiece and people will think you sat a little white jewellery box there, albeit one with an anomalous white power cable running to it.
We also like the look of the Velop, which looks like a small flower vase, albeit one with no flowers in it. Long gone are the days when WiFi routers had to look like Sauron's crown.
(Not that we dislike the very evil-looking Synology RT2600ac, which has incredible features in it that you'll never find in Google WiFi. If you're of a more technical bent, and have the time to set up a sophisticated router and any range extenders you need, we highly recommend the Synology).
When you open up the three-pack of the Google WiFi, you'll notice it has three identical router/access points in it, each with two ethernet ports and a USB-C power port hidden away in the bottom. Whichever of the three you plug into your broadband connection becomes the router, which you set up first, and the other two automatically become meshed access points, which extend the range of the router.
Using the Google WiFi app (Android and iPhone) to guide you, you can set up the entire network in a matter of minutes. 17 minutes in our case, though if you've never set up a mesh network before it could take you as many as 20 minutes. Add five minutes for the firmware update that happens automatically once it's set up, and you can be done in half an hour.
The fact that they're meshed (as opposed to having a hub-and-spoke topology like the Orbi) means that, if you have a long skinny house, or a house with a lot of floors, the access points will automatically daisy chain for you, hopping your internet connection from access point to access point before it ultimately arrives at your device.
Technically, it's not as good as a Velop mesh, which uses a separate WiFi channel to connect the access points to each other, where the Google WiFi uses the same WiFi channel that all your devices are using, but in practice it's still good enough for most applications, especially if you use ethernet in conjunction with WiFi.
Connecting our test laptop via WiFi to an access point that was connected in a single network hop to the main router, we got average download speeds to 157 megabits per second with Google Home, quite a lot less than the 510 Mbps downloads we averaged with the Velop, downloading a 1 megabyte file hundreds and hundreds of times under the same conditions in both tests.
When we attached our test laptop to one of the access point's ethernet ports, that download speed more than doubled on the Google Home, however, to 385 Mbps, which just goes to show you that: a) you really do pay a high price for not having a separate WiFi channel for mesh backhaul, and b) Google really should have built three or four ethernet ports into each unit, rather than just the two.
The need for more ethernet ports will be especially dire if you use a nifty feature in Google WiFi, which lets you plug smart home devices such a Philips Hue lighting system into the ethernet port of a router or access point, and extend control of those devices to anyone on your WiFi using a system Google calls "Home Control".
Once you register your smart devices using the Google WiFi app, anyone on your WiFi network (even people on your guest WiFi network if you have set one up) can simply open a browser and go to the URL "on.here", and they'll see a page that lets them control all the registered devices, without the need for installing an app and logging into the devices.
As far as we can tell, Home Control only works with Philips Hue, despite the mention of "playlists" on the on.here webpage, suggesting the Home Control might also be able to control a Google Home speaker, so that visitors can browse through your playlists on their device, and control the music on your Google Home speaker.
But Home Control is very poorly documented (even Google technical support didn't know what the "playlist" mention referred to), and after an hour of trying to attach a Google Home speaker to Home Control, we gave up.
The sticky tape was easier.

Our exposition discovered that road bridges in Norway are not inspected properly; damages and vulnerabilities are not followed up properly, and these insufficiencies have contributed to the loss of human lives.More than 17,000 bridges connect the road network throughout Norway. To ensure maintenance and safety of the bridges, the Norwegian Public Roads Administration (NPRA) has a management system for recording of annual inspections, damages and other matters.Using public information laws, VG gained access to 90,000 PDF pages of inspection data, and made the first publicly available national database of bridge safety. Analyzing the records, we found that the regulatory rules of inspections were broken for more than half of the bridges. After big data analysis and travelling across the country visiting 104 bridges in 15 counties, we discovered that many of the most severely damaged bridges had been neglected for years. We exposed 1745 bridges having damages that pose a risk to traffic safety. The past decade insufficient bridge railings have been a decisive factor in 37 fatal accidents.
What makes this project innovative?
Six years ago VG’s newsroom designer Sondre Nilsen finished his degree in civil engineering. For a year he worked as a bridge engineer. Some of his work time was used on bridge inspections. He discovered what appeared to be deviations, inaccuracies and mistakes in the management system. Four years later Sondre worked in VG when a motorway bridge collapsed. His background gave us unique insight into the workings of the Norwegian road administration and their systems.The journalists asked for access to the bridge database to understand how many bridges have severe damages on their capacity. NRPA provided a number, but after a week they admitted the initial number was entirely wrong. This initialized several hypotheses: Are the bridges safe? Are damages being discovered? Are the annual inspections being carried out according to regulatory laws? Do damages cause fatal accidents? Do the maintenance database provide the overview which the NRPA claims it does?The journalists have reconstructed a governmental database and made it available to the public. For the first time, the Norwegian public can check the maintenance status of their bridges of interest. More than 400.000 unique users have visited the map in the first month - and findings from the map have become stories in national, regional and local news outlets across Norway.By color-coding layers in a map we could discover new and unexpected regional differences in how the counties inspected and maintained their bridges.For “The Brobot” (BRO means BRIDGE in Norwegian) we used the techiniques of robotjournalism to offer local and unique articles for all municipalities in Norway:https://www.vg.no/spesial/2017/de-forsomte-broene/kommuneartikkel/index-eng.phpBy visiting and checking bridges themselves, the team have been able to update the database and pressure NPRA to make adjust their way of working. We believe our stories represent a high level of both investigative journalism and innovative presentation.
What was the impact of your project? How did you measure it?
The publication led to a national debate and an improvement project within the NPRA. VG’s exposé was debated in parliament. The minister of transportation demanded major improvements, and has given the NPRA a deadline to completely update the bridge database by February 2018.Several bridges were urgently inspected and repaired due to VG’s publications.For twelve years the department for traffic security in NPRA have requested a national examination of dangerous railings. The minister of transportation now promises that this will be finished in the winter of 2018.Families who lost their loved ones in car accidents learned for the first time that damages on the bridges and railings were a major cause to the fatal outcome.Reader engagement has exceeded our expectations. The interactive bridge map has had more than 400,000 unique visitors. The three main articles have all turned 300,000 which is great numbers in a country of 5 mill. people.
Source and methodology
Our main source for this project is data from the NPRA, mainly from NPRA’s internal bridge database Brutus. We gained access to these data with reference to the Norwegian freedom of information act. However, NPRA did not release the data as database files, which was our primary request. We received the data as PDF files. This forced us to write several internal tools in order to automatically read and sort the data into our own database.We also collected data from NPRA’s open service Norsk vegdatabank (“Norwegian road data bank”). All data sources had one field in common, namely the bridge number unique for each bridge. This made it possible to combine data from different sources.As research progressed, it became clear that important data were missing from the PDFs we had received. Each registered damage has a history file, which was missing. It also turned out that some types of shortages – mainly bad railings – were logged as “vulnerabilities”, not “damages”. These vulnerabilities were not a part of the first data dump. We eventually requested and received both damage history and vulnerabilities.We discovered early that NPRA’s data were not totally reliable. In some cases critical damages had been repaired without the database being updated. In other cases we discovered damages which had not been logged. This made us realise that we had to physically inspect the most important bridges in question. All in all we visited and photographed 104 bridges in 15 counties.A month before we published our project, the NPRA published a report on bridges and fatal accidents. The news story was given to the national broadcaster NRK. We later discovered the report was 19 months old and had been forgotten until we started our investigations. In 2014 VG published an investigative project on NPRA and “The Secret accident reports”. Since our investigations the reports have become public information, and this secured us access to the details of each fatal accident connected to bridges and lack of maintenance.
A MySQL database is the core of both research and presentation in this case.As we received the data from NPRA, we utilized various scripts in order to import the data into the database. First, we used the tool Pdftotext to translate the PDF files into plain text. Second, we had to make our own scripts – partly Python and partly PHP – to recognize patterns in the text files, extract the relevant data and write them to the database.Custom PHP scripts were also used to import data from the open road databank and the spreadsheets we received from NPRA.The database was immediately put into use as a research tool. By displaying bridges on a map and color coding them after different criteria, we discovered angles and connections which would have been very hard to read from the tables.The very same database, and a somewhat streamlined version of the map, is also an important part of our presentation to the readers.The “Brobot” also receives its data from the base.The three main stories were published as what we call “specials”, which means that they are presented outside our normal CMS. A designer has manually styled, coded and illustrated the stories in order to make the relatively advanced topic understandable for all our readers.


THIS MOST SIGNIFICANT policy change affecting the District of Columbia's criminal justice system since court reform almost a decade ago is the issue of whether the U.S. attorney's office here should be dismantled to make way for a local prosecutor.
Not surprisingly, this has also become the most vigorously debated subject among lawyers, judges, prosecutors and students of the local courts.
The U.S. attorney's office here has always been a special place and it hurts some people to talek about breaking it up. Unlike any other federal prosecutor's office in the nation, its lawyers prosecute virtually all purely local crimes, such as murder and robbery, as well as federal offenses, such as bribery and major narcotics violations. It has long been a high-visibility office, with a nationwide reputation for achievement and an impressive collection of alumni.
The D.C. corporation counsel's office is the lawyer to the city government, both in civil and in some criminal matters, such as juvenile crime, and violations of the city code, such as housing regulations. That office has traditionally suffered from a poor reputation in legal circles.
D.C. Mayor Marion Barry and other city officials, eager to push the city toward full home rule, say the time has come for the District to fully manage local affairs. And that, they say, includes criminal justice.
The federal prosecutors, and particularly former U.S. attorney Earl J. Silbert, strongly protest that such a move would fragment law enforcement efforts here. They tick off a long list of institutional reasons why a local prosecutor couldn't function in a federal city.
Whatever policy-makers may say publicly about the subject, in private they bring up other concerns - a nagging lack of confidence in the city's government and a troubling notion that race would be an overriding factor in hiring and promotions in any local prosecutor's office.
Before any transfer of authority could be made, Congress would have to enact legislation approving the change. A draft plan for shifting the responsibility, reportedly based on a model of a state attorney general's office, is being put on paper in the corporation's counsel's office. Officials said the first draft of a legislative package is expected to be released by the end of this month.
The home-rule argument appears tough to beat. In a town that craves self-control, talking against home rule is like taking a stand against motherhood.
If the District government is truly going to grow up, then it should take on the responsibility for law enforcement through the prosecutor's office - a purely local function in any other city with a population close to 1 million people.
"It seems right if you're wedded to the notion of self-government...that the people of the city would have some say in the selection of the lawyer who is responsible for the prosecution of major local crimes," said former D.C. Corporation Counsel John R. Risher Jr.
Former U.S. Attorney Silbert, now practice but nevertheless a formidable opponent of the switch, made his stand clear in a long letter to President Carter when he left the prosecutor's job in June.
For one thing, Silbert argued in the letter, a "significant portion" of the crime in the District is not purely local, but involves witnesses and victims from outside the city. The U.S. attorney's office can reach out, for example, to the FBI or the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration for investigative help, while a local prosecutor would have limited resources.
The only valid test for the transfer proposal, Silbert said, is its "effect on the quality and integrity of justice" here. For many reasons, Silbert said, the proposal fails. Schools and hospitals may be the stuff for home rule in Washington, but not law enforcement, Silbert wrote to Carter.
Others argue, however, that if the city acts cautiously enough in moving toward accepting authority for local prosecutions, the institutional quirks that Silbert warns about can be dealt with through legislation. After all, the states seem to manage, and surely they have their share of out-of-state crime victims and witnesses. Anyway, if Silbert's argument stands that this is the nation's capital and thus it deserves some special attention, it will get it no matter who is running the prosecutor's office.
There may be some truth - and a bit of smugness - to another argument by lawyers for the federal government that the local prosecutor would not be able to draw the high caliber of young recruits who now line up for jobs at the U.S. attorney's office here. The prestige of the federal office, they say, would be replaced by the stigma of incompetence that has long plagued the corporation counsel's office.
It is hard to accept, however, that without the magic of the federal presence good young lawyers, ready for courtroom experience, would not come to the local prosecutor's office. As to the reputation of the corporation counsel's office, the city would do well to consider setting up the new prosecutor's office independently of the corporation counsel's office.
The "bedrock problem," as one lawyer put it, the issue that everybody wants to dodge, is lack of faith in the city government. The federal prosecutors are justifiably proud of what they have accomplished here, and they are afraid that it could fall apart once the system became local.
There is a legitimate concern among the opponents that the prosecutor's office might be exposed to political patronage once it came under control of the local government.
There is also a clear, although often-unspoken sense among them that, in order to survive politically, the local prosecutor's hiring policies would be directed by race.
It was tough enough to get black lawyers to enter the competition for the U.S. attorney's job, following Silbert's resignation. So, how would young black lawyers, with options to work in the city's best firms, be persuaded to join the local prosecutor's office?
The city's response is that, if the lawyers want litigation experience, if they want to get into a courtroom and try a case, they would come to the local prosecutor's office, just as they have gone for years to the federal prosecutor's office.
How politics and race would affect the new local prosecutor - or attorney general's office if that were the case - might not be visible for several years after the change occurred.
If the District government wants to meet those concerns - and it should - it should focus attention on the procedures for selecting the local prosecutor. As the plan stands now, the local prosecutor would be appointed by the mayor and subject to confirmation by the D.C. City Council. With appropriate safeguards, that plan, as opposed to an elected prosecutor, might keep politicking to a tolerable level.
"I'm as afraid of it as anybody else," one defense lawyer said, "but there's a principal involved here" - home rule.
One crucial prerequisite to making the transfer work is money. It costs about $7 million, to operate the local division of the U.S. attorney's office, paid entirely by the Department of Justice. And observers who have had some unpleasant experiences with local budget cuts have their doubts that the city would raise the cash to keep salaries comparable and maintain the current level of resources in the federal prosecutor's office.
About 80 assistant U.S. attorneys now prosecute local criminal cases in Washington and another 90 lawyers staff the D.C. Corporation Counsel's civil and criminal divisions. Salaries in the two offices are comparable to attorneys right out of law school - about $19,000 annually - but federal wages are higher as experience and supervisory duties increase.
Supporters of the transfer insist that, if the plan were to go through, the money would come. They remind skeptics that District residents paid 75 percent of the federal prosecutor's budget until 1975 and they can do it again. And they don't rule out the possibility of a special allocation from the federal government.
The worst thing the city government could do over all would be to sit back and presume that the momentum over home rule will carry the issue through local opposition - particularly from Silbert and in part from the judges of the D.C. Superior Court. They too, in a surprising display of opinion, have expressed serious concerns about the transfer, and particularly about Barry's insistence that he should appoint the local judges, subject to confirmation by the D.C. City Council.
Couching the issue in terms of self-government is politically smart. But, practically speaking, District officials had better be well fortified with details and the promise of cash if they want to dispose of what Barry sees as one of the lingering vestiges of the "Last Colony."

Full movie description "The X-Files Emily":With DNA evidence showing that Scully is in fact Emily's mother, Mulder travels to San Diego to help his partner make sense of it all. Mulder thinks it's all related to Scully's abduction where he believes her kidnappers extracted her ova. Dana continues to receive anonymous phone calls which they trace to the children's center where Emily is staying. Emily falls seriously ill and has a strange cyst on her neck. Mulder finds that his attempt to get information about her illness leads him straight to the shape-shifting alien bounty hunters who have been keeping an eye on her. Mulder traces Emily's birth to a surprising location and makes a shocking discovery.
Reviews of the The X-Files EmilyEmily doesn't quite hit the same emotional high for me as Christmas Carol does. It still is a very good episode. Mulder returns and helps Scully. I am always impressed with acting ability of David Duchovny. Just his facial and bodily expressions tell so much. I also love it when he goes to any length to help Scully, whether it be roughing people up or otherwise. This episode features a very cool teaser of Scully walking through a sandstorm and doing a voice-over. I like the final effect of her face turning to sand and blowing away. In past seasons Mulder has been fooled by shape-shifting aliens impersonating other people. I found it funny that he was fooled again after seeing Kresge shooting the alien and seeing the green blood ooze out. One puzzling thing to me is at the very end when Scully looks in Emily's coffin, and all there is is sand with Scully's cross on it. Did Emily turn to sand? Emily is still a good conclusion to the two episode storyline, where we get to see a little deeper into Scully's soul and her yearning for a child of her own.

BALTIMORE, Sept. 17, 2016 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The tragic death of Baltimore Ravens' Clarence Brooks as a result of Esophageal Cancer, a preventable disease, presents an opportunity to raise public awareness and save lives.
If caught in pre-cancerous stages, outpatient procedures can give patients an excellent chance for survival. Patients diagnosed with early stage cancer are also often successfully cured. Most cases are discovered at late stages when treatment is rarely successful. That makes early detection critical.
Important information to help members of the public understand their risks and what they should do about it is available in ECAN's free, downloadable Guide for Patients which can be found at news.ecan.org/PatientGuide.
The Esophageal Cancer Action Network (ECAN) is the only national non-profit advocacy organization dedicated to increasing public awareness about the link between Reflux Disease and Cancer.
About ECANECAN's mission is to save lives by increasing awareness about the link between heartburn and cancer, promoting early detection, supporting medical innovation to prevent, detect, treat and cure Esophageal Cancer and linking patients and families to compassionate support. The Baltimore-based national non-profit organization is led by a board of directors of top physicians, business leaders and families touched by Esophageal Cancer.
ECAN successfully advocated with the National Cancer Institute to include esophageal cancer in its groundbreaking genome mapping project. Through ECAN's efforts, April has been formally designated as Esophageal Cancer Awareness Month across the United States. For more information, visit www.ECAN.org.
ECAN will make sources (physicians, families, patients) available for interviews about Esophageal Cancer prevention

Motorists will no longer need the “green card” issued by their insurance company to drive in Europe.
The requirement has been waived by the European Commission (EC). An agreement post-Brexit stated that British motorists had to have the extra paperwork enabling them to drive legally in Europe.
The green card showed enforcement agencies that travellers have valid motor insurance and was an internationally recognised document that normally lasted for 90 days.
Before the pandemic, UK residents made an estimated 12.6 million visits a year to EU countries via seaports and the Channel tunnel. The new rule, expected to be published in the EU’s official journal in the next few days, will come into force 20 days later.
The Association of British Insurers (ABI) hailed the decision as excellent news for drivers.
Their Director General, Huw Evans, said “UK drivers will no longer need to apply for a green card through their insurer which will help reduce bureaucracy for drivers and road hauliers travelling between the UK and EU.
It will be especially welcomed by motorists in Northern Ireland driving across the border.” The Motor Insurers’ Bureau of Ireland (MIBI) said “This wasn’t a sustainable situation when you consider there are an estimated 43 million cross border vehicle trips per annum and there are approximately 25,000 people who live on one side of the border and who regularly commute to the other jurisdiction.”

Dramélie: Amélie Director Slams Proposed Musical
In Which We Make A Terrible Pun
Yesterday we reported that the adorably whimsical French film Amélie is being turned into a musical. But despite the fact that it’s not even been written yet, said musical already has found an impassioned critic in a quite unlikely form: The film’s director.
Don’t hold back, Jean-Pierre Jeunet. Tell us what you really think.
Via The Guardian:
According to the Agence France-Presse, Jean-Pierre Jeunet said in a radio interview that he had a “profound disgust” for musical comedy and did not approve of the idea of Dan Messe and Craig Lucas‘s stage adaptation, which is aiming for Broadway. “I hate Broadway,” said the director. “I think it is the very incarnation of tackiness.”
You hear that? It’s a bunch of theater geeks fashioning their sheet music and Playbills into makeshift weapons.
But if Jeunet hates Broadway so much, why did he give permission for the musical to be made in the first place? Turns out accepting the offer to adapt Amélie lets him donate to one of his favorite charities, Mécénat Chirurgie Cardiaque (Heart Surgery Patronage). Explains Jeunet, “It costs €10,000 (£8,500) to save a child, I have already helped to save a good dozen children, and then I thought this could be an opportunity to save more.”
He signed off on the musical to save the children, but he’ll be damned if he’s going to play nice and pretend to like the thing:
“I can tell you that I will not go to see it, I don’t even want to hear about it, I won’t listen to what they do, but if it brings in some money, well, maybe I can save a few lives, and that’s the only reason I accepted.”
An experienced director set in his ways. A pair of theater mavericks determined to prove him wrong and create something brilliant. A rivalry that transcends mediums. Screw Amélie. Someone go meta and make a musical out of this.

More than six months after Philadelphia theaters closed their doors for who knows how long, the Fringe Festival has shown us how art can be reinvented, not just surviving, but thriving in its forced move to cyberspace. The trick is embracing the medium, not fighting against it. And unfortunately, Green Light Group Productions does the latter in Crossover.
Dated, to begin with
The premise of Crossover is that four women—soul singer Reggie Carlyle (Taylor J. Mitchell), EDM performer Max Green (nonbinary actor Boris Dansberry) rocker KC Paker (Chelsea Cylinder), and country crooner Hallie Harper (Ali Walker) tie in the regional finals of a national singing competition and are forced to combine forces despite their different genres, competing in the next round as Four-Way Tie (get it?) against bro-country singer Jack Tyler (Chris Murphy Smith) and presumably some other contestants that we never see or hear about.
Setting aside the fact that a four-way tie is practically impossible when millions of people are voting for their faves, I struggled from the beginning to care much about the stakes here, because after almost 20 years of TV singing competitions like American Idol, Crossover’s premise feels tired. Setting it in the early aughts might have helped somewhat here, but it wouldn’t have helped the production’s biggest flaw.
Flaws in production
Due to the pandemic, Crossover could not be performed onstage, as clearly intended. Scene after scene was meant to take place with actors sharing space, and yet each of these moments played out in small on-screen boxes instead, clearly shot at the performers’ home, on their own equipment. In editing, the sound was never balanced and color was never corrected. Some actors were loud. Some were quiet. Some appeared clearly and well lit, and some were grainy or shadowed. Most of the time, the sound at least synched up with the picture. But those times when it didn’t were so distracting that I couldn’t focus on what was actually being said or sung.
There were a few ways the limitations enforced by the pandemic might have been addressed. First, with writer Danielle E. Moore’s help, the script could have been reshaped to account for the reality of 2020: the stakes would have been much higher if the four performers of Four-Way Tie had to figure out not just how to perform together, but how to do so across cyberspace. Alternatively, Green Light Group could have presented Crossover as a lower-stakes reading, or turned Crossover into a podcast-format radio play, making all of the visual discrepancies unimportant.
But if Green Light Group was really committed to making Crossover feel like a production, they could have taken advantage of the fact that it’s now easy to get decent DIY production equipment: a small green screen, a microphone, and a ring light could’ve all been purchased for under $100, and saved this production, even with each actor working separately and edited together later. It wouldn’t have looked quite like real life, but it would have worked better than asking audiences to believe that two actors in different frames with different backgrounds and lighting were standing at the same bar.
Beyond tech issues
Although the book, lyrics, and music of Crossover still felt a little rough around the edges and the premise felt stale, Moore’s script still has a lot of promise—some of the songs are downright catchy, and I appreciated the centering of some of the characters’ queer identities.
The performers are young, and like the script itself, showed potential. But with or without the technical issues, I’m not sure the current cast could carry the show. Much of the acting is solid, but the singing is lacking. While the performers are at their best when the music calls for harmonies, when it comes to solos, Dansberry and Walker are the strongest singers of the bunch. Believing Cylinder as a powerhouse rock singer required an impossible suspension of disbelief, and because the aforementioned sound synching issue affected Miller most of all I found it hard to evaluate her performance on its merits.
Ordinarily, a pretty set might atone for a weak premise, or consistently talented actors can make up for a drab setting. But with Crossover, nothing was strong enough to save the show.

Bajaj scooter update 11
So the Bajaj had another stock 150 motor with the “sporty note exhaust system” and just needed rewired….
The newish motor started and went well but needed some more go as carting me around was OK but not very fast and the 8″ wheels at any speed are a little scary, especially in the gravel roads around my neighborhood. Mrs JC now has a faster scoot and not being able to keep up with her on this one is not a very good thing.
After the amount of work and money I have already spent on this I decided to make some more changes to the “Black Roughie” as that’s just scootering for us slow learning southern people….
A couple of Trade me purchases later and I had another donor motor that, as it turns out, had originally come from Ross, an Otago scooterist based in Dunedin. It found its way from him to Mr Skoot in Wellington and then to Dan another Wellington scooterist and then to me. Originally a PX150, it had been fitted with a DR177 kit and a 24mm Spaco carburetor and just needed some minor tidying up before I could install it in the Bajaj. I already had the Scootrs “pipe of doom” exhaust so everything was falling into place.
Mr Skoot also supplied a 10″ Atomic branded GS150 type wheel and tyre for the front. Traditionally, you would have put a whole 10″ fork assembly into the scooter and just used a standard 10″ wheel however this allowed me to retain the standard 8″ fork and hub assembly and to just bolt the new wheel on. It looks good and just went straight on with no issues.
One of the roughies side pods had some rust and a few holes in it so I sourced a S/H one through Paul at Vespa Spares. He sent me one off a Chetak which fit fine but had some holes for trim and indicators on it and it was a different colour. Recently I had painted another scooter, Elsie, with a couple of cans of matt black and silver and had some left over, so I decided to give the roughie a paint job. From a distance it looks great!!
Another big day and a late night in the shed later I had the roughie painted, the new motor in with the exhaust, two new 10″ wheels, fueled up and ready to go. Unfortunately 2am isn’t the best time to be test riding the scoot so it had to sit there until the next day. It started 2nd kick and after taking it for a run then adjusting the idle, I went for another ride along the road adjacent to our property. The Scootrs pipe is quite loud however when you are giving it a handful it sounds OK. It goes very well indeed and I’ve been told the DR177 kit isn’t the fastest but is reliable compared to other kits. Time will tell…
So next on the list is the 12V wiring for the lighting system…here we go again…..

Michy Batshuayi admits he was lacking confidence at Chelsea while now, at Borussia Dortmund, he plays full of it.
The Belgian striker arrived to Stamford Bridge in summer 2016 and despite playing an important role in last title campaign never had full trust by manager Antonio Conte, who rarely started him in the 18 months he coached him.
However, Batshuayi has been showing all his qualities since he moved on loan to Borussia Dortmund, where he has already scored 5 goals in only 3 games.
The 24-year-old forward took a swipe to his former boss, Conte, claiming he just needed more playing time:
“I don’t know if Conte was watching my game,” said Batshuayi.
“Sitting on the bench, score a goal and then back to the bench is quite difficult to deal with for an attacker.
“It wasn’t always easy at Chelsea. I’m now playing with a lot of confidence.
“They are focusing on the Premier League and have an important Champions League tie next week. I hope it turns out well for them.”

Kopecky — Blood
(Unicorn Digital UNCR-5029, 2006, CD)
by Peter Thelen, Published 2007-03-01
It is indeed blood that ties the membership of this fine Wisconsin based instrumental trio together. Three siblings: Paul Kopecky, the drummer, a consummate professional who provides the framework that the others can build on; Joe Kopecky, the metal-head guitar shredder who gives the trio much of their textural and rhythmic character, as well as their heaviness and melodic guidance; Bill Kopecky brings to his fretless and fretted basses a unique styling that adds an additional melodic element to the band’s sound, as well as providing intense depth and precision to their bottom end. Exposé has long been a champion of this band, going all the way back to their demo tape days, right up to this, the band’s fifth full-length release. Though I must say that as I listened to this disc numerous times in preparation for writing this review, I wondered several times if I had not already reviewed it before. The trio have created a comfort zone for themselves over four studio releases that ensures a bit of predictability, even though they keep improving within its limits. Without a doubt this disc contains some of the band’s most stirring pieces, among them the twelve minute “Windows” suite, the dark and fierce ambient opus “Opium,” and the brilliantly complex “Eden’s Flow.” Perhaps what’s needed in the future is to break those limits and throw in a few complete surprises. Kopecky is certainly capable of it, they are some of the best musicians around.

Massive fire breaks out in Heights area
HOUSTON (KTRK) -- Firefighters spent the morning on the scene of a two-alarm fire in the Heights area.The fire broke out just after 3am on North Durham near West 14th Street. There were at least three structures involved and firefighters had to pull two alarms before getting the fire under control. Crews started in defensive mode when they arrived because winds where whipping up the flames.
"I can tell you that the fire is under investigation," said HFD Chief Tommy Dowdy. "Arson investigators are here. The original structure appears to be an unoccupied house. There are two other structures involved -- a garage and third structure which I'm not exactly sure what it's usage was. It was back in the back."
Arson investigators on the scene have been interviewing neighbors and gathering as much evidence as possible.
At this time, it's unknown how this fire started or if it's related to the nearly two dozen other fires set over the past several months in the Heights.

Luc (the owner of Mendoza Andes) Saved our Mendoza trip! We were left stranded by the tour company in the Sheraton Hotel and luckily we called Luc, who quickly put together an amazing itinerary under short notice and picked us up within the hour.
Our guide Luc took us on a full day trip into the surrounding mountains around Mendoza. He was so personable and friendly, and was willing to answer any questions we had. He took us to many spots that are not frequented by tourists such as the Siete Colores and the location where 7 years in Tibet was filmed. We ended the day eating a late lunch in a canyon then taking the 365 curves on the way home, all the while seeing Guanaco's and other wildlife.
We would definitely recommend this company, we wish we had more time in Mendoza to plan trips with them.

Seanan McGuire is so prolific a writer that following her career comprehensively would probably be a full-time job in and of itself. I’m a committed fan of her Toby Daye series, but I’m less committed to her other works; I’ve read some of the Newsflesh books but none of her other Mira Grant books. This one, about killer mermaids, is apparently a sequel to an earlier novella, but I can attest that you can read it independently.
In a near-future 2022, infotainment TV network Imagine puts up quite a lot of money to fund another trip to the site where its research vessel the Atargatis was lost with all hands, possibly at the hands of mermaids. A motley crew of people with their own angles join the cruise, from maverick “sirenologist” Dr. Jillian Toth and her estranged husband, corporate shill Theo Blackwell, to grad student Tori, whose sister Anne died on the previous cruise doing a job now held by one Olivia Sanderson, who finds that social interaction is often better mediated by a video camera. There’s also a trio of sisters, two of whom are twins, two of whom hold PhDs, and two of whom are deaf, all of whom I quite liked. It’s a tribute to the book that I only realized about halfway through that with the exceptions of Theo and Tori’s lab partner Luis, almost all of the main characters in the novel are women. All different women. Pretty cool.
Grant is really good at writing suspense, and she clearly did a lot of research into marine science to make the mermaids fit believably into what we know about the oceans in real life. I read the book in my characteristic fashion, skimming in chunks to get to the end, and then went back to the beginning to read the whole thing linearly; that’s when the book’s flaws became more apparent. Though you don’t notice it the first time through so much, when you’re on the edge of your seat to learn which of the characters, if any, will survive and just what is the deal with the mermaids, biologically speaking, the whole thing is somewhat overlong and overwritten, and the middle of the book sags. All of these problems are connected: Grant indulges a little too much in portentous phrasing that is trying to be ominous but too often shades into cliché, and she’s a little too into telling rather than showing some crucial character perspectives. The lull in the middle would have been much less of a lull with a more active red pen in hand, and I would have had less time to realize that Grant’s views on evolution maybe don’t quite fit with what Darwin actually tells us about evolution, which is that it’s a process with no pre-determined goal or endpoint, and that extinction is the fate of all species.
That being said, these concerns disappear in the ending sequence, which is a wild ride that ends on an oddly quiet note. I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s a sequel, and I’m invested enough in the characters that I would be very interested to read it, as well as Grant’s future novels that don’t involve voluntarily ingesting genetically engineered tapeworms.

“Begin at the beginning,” the King said, very gravely, “and go on till you come to the end: then stop.”
This year marks the one-hundred-and-fiftieth anniversary of the first printing of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderful, commonly referred to as Alice in Wonderland.
“Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be too late!”
“But I don’t want to go among mad people,” Alice remarked.
“Oh, you can’t help that,” said the Cat: “we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad.”
“How do you know I’m mad?” said Alice.
“You must be,” said the Cat, “or you wouldn’t have come here.”
But until this year, I never checked into the background of how the Wonderland book came to be written. I thought I’d share some of the interesting facts I found out about the author and the book here.
“Have I gone mad?”
“I’m afraid so, but let me tell you something, the best people usually are.”
First, probably a lot of people know that Lewis Carroll is a pseudonym for Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, but I didn’t. Or that he based a lot of his characters on real people and places, even images. Because he stuttered, he said his last name Dodo-Dodgson, and thus the dodo bird in the book was created. The rabbit hole was probably a symbol for the stairs, called the rabbit hole, in the back of the main hall in Christ Church where Mr. Dodgson was a mathematician.
“I’m afraid I can’t explain myself, sir. Because I am not myself, you see?”
Mr. Dodgson first told many of Alice’s adventures to three little girls on a boat ride with their father, Henry Liddell. Lorina Charlotte, aged thirteen at the time, Alice Pleasance, aged ten, and Edith Mary, aged eight. They loved the stories so much, he later wrote them down, expanded on them, did his own illustrations, but later hired an illustrator, John Tenniel. The first draft was 15,500 words, but then he added more material such as the Cheshire cat and the Mad Hatter tea party (one of my favorite scenes) and it became 27,500 words.
“Curiouser and curiouser!”
“Off with their heads!”
The author had a rare neurological disorder that causes hallucinations and affects the size of visual objects, which can make the patient feel bigger or smaller than he is. This of course became a major part of the book. The disease is now often called the Alice in Wonderland Syndrome.
I have to say that Mr. Dodson’s life was almost as fascinating as his stories. Happy Anniversary, Alice!
As the Cheshire Cat said, “Imagination is the only weapon in the war against reality.” And now you know why I love to read and write. What is your favorite book? What was the first book you remember being read to you or that you read yourself?

The management and organization of libraries is computer-based. Resource provision relies on computer technology, and information skills encompass a range of computer and other technology skills as well. Although books are still prevalent and encouraging children to read remains one of the most powerful reasons why school library media specialists enter the field, there is no doubt that innovative uses of technology also prove to be a career draw. Technology must be defined as more than just computer hardware and software.
NBPTS and School Library Media 25 Obviously, the population of the states has little to do with the number of school library media NBCTs in them. Besides financial factors in terms of stateor district-level rewards and support, another factor that helps determine the number of NBCTs could be simple word of mouth. In the top ten states, there are enough library media NBCTs to have a presence at conferences at the district level and in state organizations. Upon receiving the NBCT designation, school library media specialists may be honored at school and district events or noted in the professional association newsletter.

I am available for private piano lessons in the Minneapolis-St.Paul metropolitan area. Prices are negotiable, based as much on effort and devotion as anything else. I have a home studio or can travel to your home or studio.
If I am teaching the student piano performance, an acoustic piano is required for practicing. If the student is strictly interested in learning music theory, then any keyboard type will suffice.
Regarding my formal music education...
I have a Bachelor of Music degree from Northern Illinois University, as well as a Master of Arts degree in music composition and theory from the University of Minnesota. Besides the private piano instruction I received as part of my degree program, I have continued private piano study through much of my adulthood.
Where you can hear me perform...
I perform 4 times a month at the Minneapolis-St.Paul International Airport in the Terminal 1 mall. I also play at the St. Paul Menards Department store a few weekends a month.

Hornworms earn their common name by the hornlike structure at the tail end of the caterpillar. The tomato hornworm is actually the larva of the Five spotted hawk moth (Manduca quinquemaculata), whereas, the tobacco hornworm develops into a tobacco hawk moth or Carolina sphinx moth (Manduca sexta).
Typically, the tomato hornworm is found in the northern part of the United States, while the tobacco hornworm is found in the southern. Not sure how north Missouri is defined, but all i’ve ever seen on my tomato plants are tobacco hornworms. Hornworms are not defined by what they are eating, however, since they tend to defoliate potato plants, eggplants, moonflowers, peppers, as well as tomato and tobacco.
Eggs deposited on the plant hatch into larvae in about a week in late spring, grow to maturity at about 10 cm (3-4 inches), then drop to the ground to pupate into moths. They overwinter near the host plant – ready to infest the next year’s crop.
Control of the hornworms is essential if you want any crop production. On smaller garden plots like mine (only 25 tomato plants), i pluck them off by hand and feed them to the laying hens.

william kouam djoko - we are your brothers & sisters - rush hour - voyage direct - vinylRH-VD 7 - 64295 - eu12'' - €7.99
Out Of Stock, Remind me
Add To My Wishlist
We welcome William Kouam Djoko to the Voyage Direct family with his first release for the label.
With this new release by the The Hague native, the label continues to release Dutch only artists.
William delivers some late night house goodies here. The title track is a pulsating and hypnotic track that leads with a repetitive 'We Are Your Brothers & Sisters' vocal before diving into an epic organ and drum break.
'Enforce YS' is a deeper, warmer synth track that really gets under your skin after a few listens. This is the kind of stuff that fills the heart of a hi-tech soul fan. Should appeal to early Carl Craig fans et al.
Strong label debut, which shows that Amsterdam is increasingly becoming a pool of new underground house producers.

Ed Haslam, SVP of marketing at US firm YuMe, discusses the biggest misconceptions around advertising on connected TVs, and provides his thoughts on how advertisers can derive strong engagement rates from these devices.
Ed will be speaking at the TV:Xperience event taking place in New York City on July 15th-17th. For more information and to register, please visit www.tvxperienceevent.com.
Everyone knows TV viewer behaviour is changing, but not everyone agrees on why. What do you think are the main drivers?
Choices – we have more choices than ever before, which I’d say fall into three broad types.
Firstly there are now many more screens we can consume media on – smartphones, tablets, PCs, connected TVs…
Secondly, we can do this any time of the day. And thirdly, there are many more content choices – TV as defined by broadcast/cable is once again being disrupted by tens of thousands of Internet-available options.
Overall, if you think of TV being defined as more than just television, TV viewership is up since we’re consuming more video content than we have in the history of television.
Can you tell us a little more about YuMe’s recent study done in partnership with Nielsen and LG?
This is a two pronged research study, one part tied to better understanding how consumers are engaging with ads within connected TV.
Alongside Nielsen and LG, we’re testing the consumer within a more natural living room environment, interacting with and sharing their perceptions of different Smart TV ad formats, while testing all brand metrics including recall, favourability, and purchase intent.
The second part of the study hopes to reveal connected TV audience’s behavioural, lifestyle and psychographic profile data.
The results will quantify the opportunity that connected TV provides advertisers to reach a differentiated audience and why connected TV is an essential component of every media plan.
The key findings will address online and offline behaviours, media consumption, ownership, preferences, attitudes, and influence.
What do you believe are the most common misconceptions out there regarding advertising on connected TV platforms?
We often hear a variety of myths around connected TV and advertising, including that connected TV has no scale, that connected TV demographics skew heavily toward young males, and that everyone is just watching Netflix.
However, there are a number of studies which debunk these claims: for example, eMarketer predicted last January that by 2016, one-third of US households will have a Smart TV.
A separate study by YuMe together with Magid found a 58/42 split male/female CTV audience, and also found that nearly half (48%) of CTV users are frequently using non-Netflix apps, and that CTV owners have high interaction with advertising formats.
How do you think these connected TV platforms can provide advertisers with industry-leading engagement rates?
By innovating with new modes of interaction, namely voice, gesture, and bluetooth-connected (magic motion) remote capabilities.
A connected TV camera can image process and the TV can actually watch you – when you sit down in front of your TV and turn it on, it can automatically register your face and log you into your registered accounts.


Like a lot of parents who read the New York Times article "Tell Me What You See, Even if it Hurts Me" (August 1st, 2014) I felt weepy after reading that thousands of middle-school girls are posting videos of themselves on YouTube asking "Am I Pretty?" I get why the girls do it. They are trying to figure out where they fit on the beauty spectrum (but, only, of course if they are deemed pretty) and figure that they'll get an honest answer if they ask a gazillion strangers. What they aren't banking on is how many of these strangers will leap at the chance to make the girls feel horrible about themselves with cutting comments in spite of their requests to "not be mean, just honest."
As someone who makes media and has been featured in the media, I've felt the sting of strangers commenting rudely on my appearance. One commenter wrote after a Boston Globe article about my documentary, which featured a picture of me holding my video camera, that my hairstyle was totally stupid. He posted that several times. I remember feeling both offended but also shocked that he would take the time to post it more than once. What was the point? In my 40s, the experience was annoying. Had I been a middle-schooler, it would have been devastating. It is unfathomable and heartbreaking to me that thousands of people would go out of their way to lob insult grenades at a vulnerable girl.
What do we do about this?
For one thing we keep shoring up our girls and teaching them how much more there is to them then their physical beauty. We focus less on what they're wearing and who is donning too much makeup, and more on what they're reading, who they see as a role model, what they'd invent if they had the money, the funniest joke they heard this week, what they did recently that was kind, what makes a good leader. When they answer, we listen and then ask more questions. We teach them that they matter.
We can specifically talk to our tween and teen daughters about this trend of girls asking to be rated on social media and ask them what they make of this idea. We can ask why girls would do this, and what the likely outcomes are. We can discuss the fact that no one can or should be rated based on their appearance, much less a world full of strangers who don't know us at all. We can share with them the importance of sharing insecurities and vulnerabilities only with people in our lives who have proven they are respectful and trustworthy.
Let's not forget as parents to teach our kids, boys and girls, the devastating and enduring impact of their "joking" comments they tweet and post in comment sections on the Internet. It is so easy to lose sight of the fact that there is a real human with real feelings on the other end of anonymous comments made without thinking twice. This should be part of all anti-bullying campaigns but it starts with each of us teaching it to our kids, even if we think they'd never ever do such a thing. (It can't hurt to bring it up, right?)
At MEDIAGIRLS -- the non-profit organization I started that teaches middle-school girls to critique how they're portrayed in mainstream media -- we go further than "do no harm." We teach girls to create content that showcase girls and women that are changing the world through bravery, compassion, intelligence, and adventurous spirit. The motto of MEDIAGIRLS is "Where girls give media the makeover," and it's time we all find ways to be part of this necessary makeover. I promise you can have a dramatic effect.
