Former Rush guitarist Alex Lifeson is slated to re-enter the music industry this year with his new band Envy of None, whose debut album is scheduled for an April 8th release. It will be Lifeson’s first project since Rush unofficially retired in 2015 at the end of their R40 Tour and officially disbanded in 2018, two years before Neil Peart‘s death in 2020.
The major reasons for Rush’s initial break-up were health-related: Lifeson had been struggling with arthritis that made guitar playing difficult, while Peart was finding it almost impossible to keep his playing abilities up to his absurdly high standards as the members reached their twilight years. Peart endured a number of injuries during the R40 tour, and after the final scheduled stop in Los Angeles on August 1st, Rush would never again play music together.
In a recent interview with Ultimate Guitar, Lifeson reflected that the band were still playing some of their best concerts and possibly could have soldiered on, had they felt the need or desire. “We could have continued touring. If we had the strength, we could have continued touring,” Lifeson insists. “I think we were playing great. The last tour, I thought we played really, really well. I thought the show looked fantastic, and you could argue that that’s the best way to go out.”
“That’s where your legacy is intact, and that’s how people remember you,” Lifeson added. “They remember you at that show where you played that song that they’ve listened to for 40 years, and it was the best version they’ve ever heard of that song, and that’s what they’re left with. They’re sad that it’s over but at least they have that memory.”
Most importantly, Lifeson said that he never wants to “end up in a chair on a stage singing… I would never, ever, ever want to be like that. For what purpose? Is it money? Is it some egotistical drive? Get over it. Get over yourself. You know, it’s just, I don’t know… I’m just not like that.”
Lifeson also revealed that, while Envy of None doesn’t have any planned concert dates at the moment, the guitarist isn’t opposed to getting back onstage. “I think it really all depends on how the album is received,” Lifeson explains. “If the record is received warmly, I don’t know if we would do something like a tour. But if it’s received really well, and there’s a demand for it, then what I would like to do, is maybe do a few shows where I would be involved.”
But if he does get on stage, don’t expect Lifeson to bust out any of his classic riffs. “I’m not going to play Rush songs, I’m not going to try and be what I was when I was 25 years old, or 30 years old. I’m a different person now. I’m still the same person, but I think differently.”
Instead, Lifeson is finding value in the smaller moments like plucking out some acoustic guitar lines in the privacy of his own home. “I’m sitting and playing acoustic guitar before I go to bed every night for a couple hours now, and I am loving it,” Lifeson says. “No one’s in the room, my wife’s not even in the room, and I’m having so much fun. My fingers are really hurting, which is a good sign. I just shake my head and I just thank the gods that I’m able to do this, and I’ve been able to do this, and I hope to continue until the very last big open E chord I play.”
Envy of None’s self-titled debut is scheduled for an April 8th release.

The Voices of the Dead Omnibus
Have you ever walked past a bakery, got a tease of that fresh bread smell, wandered in to just pick up a loaf and ended up with a bundle of fresh pastries, unsure how that happened?
Or maybe you stopped in the grocery, not realising you were hungry, to pick up two things max, and ended up rolling a full cart back out to your car?
If either of those situations resonates with you, you completely understand when I say, every time I pick up one of the books from Victoria Raschke’s Voices of the Dead to just read a few pages in-between some task, I end up getting caught up for a minimum of 5 chapters.
It does not matter what else I have to do, these books catch me in their world and hold me.
Victoria’s writing style, her prose, feels like warm soft laundry on a cold cloudy day. She rocks your senses and beguiles your reading self into her world so easily and so quietly. It may not be the loud adventure and rushing chaos I am usually drawn to, however it has its own magic that soothes, that calls, and that awakens your curiosity to find out exactly what happens next with Jolene Wiley and her tribe.
The story is set in Slovenia. Imagine that, storytellers tend to go to Paris or London. Victoria chooses a different path and shows the reader a world that I am sure many of us are unfamiliar with. She doubles down on this when she introduces a new pantheon of old European gods who have existed far longer than we might remember. For mythology lovers, this series will be a wondrous dream. I will not give it away but our main character Jolene interacts with and meets a few witches, demons, gods, and other deities as she unravels the mystery of who she is.
At Jolene’s core, though, we have a main character unlike any I have read in a very long while. She is grown. Not sort of grown, not kind of grown, but fully grown. Grown in the way that only making love filled and starry-eyed decisions in your wild youth can make you. Practical and self reliant, she is also the glue, the core that holds her son and her found family together.
I am sincerely trying not to give any spoilers away for this 4-part book series, so if any of my descriptions seem a bit too general, that would be why.
What struck me though, was that this journey of the main character was a hero journey unlike what I have become accustomed to. One we rarely see in fiction. It was the journey of a woman deepening her connections with self and growing into being more than she had foreseen was possible.
Even while she did all she could to hold on to the things that made her, her. Jolene was unapologetically female. She was soft. She was strong. She let her physical needs drive her. She refused to conform into being the stereotypical woman society tries to shame us into being. And she did all of this while holding on to the people she loved, to what made her happy, and what she thought was right at great personal cost.
These books changed me. They reminded me that a slower pace allows for more introspection of the characters and of me, the reader. More often than not, I am drawn to the wild side of adventure and I had forgotten that adventure and lore could be just as tasty if savored and sipped like a mug of hot chocolate on a dark rainy day.
Do not misunderstand me, there is a lot of action here, and emotional heavings, but they are delivered not with a brawling fist but instead as a slow twisting knife inserted between your ribs.
Your emotions and thoughts get caught in Victoria’s seductive and wordy ebb and flow, and she will murder your time and steal your attention. She just does it with such beauty and grace in her writing that your day slips by, errands and work remain undone, while you convince yourself to read just one more chapter.
Try Voices of the Dead.
But, put aside the time, get comfy and cozy. Maybe a hot brew, a couple snacks, and something to hug before you get started.
This is the kind of series you keep in your library and return to as needed.
That said, be sure to ease yourself in and let Jolene Wiley take you on a twisty and dark adventure in Slovenia.

Looking through that window is admittedly uncomfortable, but doing so gives us a rare opportunity to honestly confront the graphic reality of a mass shooting.

There are many accomplished musicians from the Island and there will be more to come. Gulangyu has the most pianos per capita in the world, averaging one in every five families.

The Hughson City Council opened their Monday meeting with a set of proclamations recognizing the service of the city's four sheriff's deputies.
Turlock Recreation Division is looking for ways to cut expenses in an effort to be self sufficient in their funding without relying on the city's General Fund. The first area where they recommended cuts was to the open swim program at the Pitman and Turlock high school pools.
The Stanislaus County Board of Supervisors unanimously passed what county CEO Rick Robinson termed "a responsible" proposed budget Tuesday morning, slashing $45 million - nearly 5 percent - from last year's final budget.
Interested candidates for the Hughson Recall Election now have six days left to file their application with the city clerk to claim their spot on the ballot for the Aug. 24 election.
Stanislaus County homeowners who've opted to go ahead and build that extra room - without a proper building permit - will have until the end of the year to set things straight with the county.
The Turlock City Council passed an ordinance on Tuesday that prohibits new pet stores from selling unaltered cats and dogs. The ordinance was added to the municipal code restrictions already in place that require breeders to purchase a certificate and limit each adult animal to only one litter a year.
Turlock's budget is now in the hands of the full City Council - and city employee unions - as the Budget Subcommittee wrapped up their work Friday afternoon.
The Turlock of 2030 has been narrowed down to four defined visions with two clear frontrunners, but the question remains: Should Turlock grow entirely to the southeast or in a more compact plan that spreads new homes between the northwest and southeast?
What had once been considered a possible case of fraud at the City of Turlock was chalked up to misinformation on Tuesday night.
The axe came down again at the Stanislaus County Board of Supervisors meeting on Tuesday.
Victims of workplace discrimination will have a new opportunity to file complaints locally, as the federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission will begin offering office hours on some Sundays in Modesto.
The City of Turlock receives millions of dollars each year from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, but in order to be eligible for funding the city must complete a Consolidated Plan explaining how it will use the money.
The Turlock City Council shifted $5.35 million from overfunded self-insurance accounts into General Fund reserves during a special meeting Wednesday night, but questions lingered as to how those accounts became so inflated in the first place.
The cuts kept coming at the Stanislaus County Board of Supervisors meeting on Tuesday.
The Turlock Citizens Coalition, a group opposing the installation of a new synthetic turf track and all-weather field at Turlock High School's Joe Debely Stadium, has dropped its lawsuit against the City of Turlock, the Turlock City Council, the Turlock Redevelopment Agency, and the three individual council members who voted in favor of the project - Ted Howze, Amy Bublak and Kurt Spycher.
Turlock residents will likely see a citywide tax initiative on their ballots this November, as the City Council begins the process of creating an alternative to the countywide transportation tax recently abandoned by the Stanislaus Council of Governments that would have generated millions for local roadway repairs.
The Turlock City Council opted to take an important step towards switching Turlock's current at-large election system to one composed of multiple districts, in an effort to encourage equal representation within local government while also saving the city from hefty lawsuits.

National & World Ag News Headlines
USAgNet - 12/06/2017
Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue announced the appointment of six members to serve on the National Fluid Milk Processor Promotion Board. The terms for these appointees are effective immediately and expire on June 30, 2020.

“Chiquitita” (a Spanish term of endearment for a woman meaning “little one”) is a song recorded by Swedish pop group ABBA. It was released in January 1979 as the first single from the group’s Voulez-Vous album. Originally, the track “If It Wasn’t for the Nights” was going to be the album’s lead single, but after “Chiquitita” was completed those plans were abandoned, and it would remain an album track.
Many preliminary versions of “Chiquitita” exist. It had working titles of “Kålsupare”, “3 Wise Guys”, “Chiquitita Angelina” and “In The Arms of Rosalita”. A revised version, which had a sound that was influenced by the Peruvian song “El Condor Pasa (If I Could)” performed by Simon and Garfunkel, was recorded in December 1978 and released as a single in January 1979.

Sen. Bernie Sanders campaigning in New Hampshire in May
For the first time since he entered the presidential race, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) is besting former secretary of state Hillary Clinton in an early-state poll.
A survey conducted by Franklin Pierce University and the Boston Herald shows Sanders leading Clinton 44 percent to 37 percent among Democrats likely to vote in the New Hampshire primary. Vice President Joe Biden, who has not entered the race, drew 9 percent in the poll, which was conducted over the weekend and released Wednesday. Its margin of error was plus or minus 4.7 percent.
"It just shows you that the more people know Bernie Sanders, the more they like him," says Sanders spokesman Michael Briggs.
Indeed, the percentage of Granite Staters with a favorable opinion of Sanders has grown by 20 points since Franklin Pierce last polled the state in March. Now, 76 percent view him favorably, compared with 80 percent who view Clinton favorably.
The intensity of Sanders' support appears to be significantly greater than Clinton's. The poll found that 54 percent of the state's Democratic voters view him "very favorably," while only 36 percent feel the same about his chief rival. Similarly, while 44 percent said they were "excited" by his candidacy, only 35 percent said so about Clinton.
Still, New Hampshire Democrats aren't convinced Sanders will prevail. Nearly two-thirds of those polled said they thought Clinton would win the Democratic nomination, while only 11 percent thought Sanders would.


Belper-based male voice choir The Dalesmen raised a total of more than £1,000 at their latest concert on February 25. The money was raised for local charity Children First Derby. The concert, held at The Grange, Littleover, attracted a capacity audience. See left for more.
The evening was compered by BBC East Midland’s Today reporter, James Roberson, also one of the choir’s patrons.
The Dalesmen, one of the largest male voice choirs in the East Midlands, practice at the Strutts Centre, Belper, on Monday evenings at 7.15 pm and invite men, particularly young ones, who feel they would like to give choral singing a try, to come to a practice session and listen, or if inclined, join in.
The choir’s musical director Paul teaches music at Derby High School and Derby Grammar School and also is involved in music around Derbyshire, particularly at Derby Cathedral. Anyone interested in joining the choir, engaging the Dalesmen for a concert, or perhaps interested in the choir’s future concert calendar, can find information and contact details on the choir’s website at www.dalesmen.org

Seventh Week in Ordinary Time Year II Thursday
2 Corinthians 4:5-18
Responsory 2 Cor 4:6; Dt 5:24
God has said: Let light shine out of darkness. + He has shone in our hearts that we might make known the glory of God shining on the face of Christ Jesus.
V. The Lord our God has shown us his glory and greatness, and we have heard his voice. + He has shone...
From a treatise by Saint Symeon the New Theologian (Traites Theologiques et Ethiques J, 10: se 122, 252-254)
We receive the Word of God in our hearts - calling the Holy Spirit a treasure
Everyone of us believes in him who is the Son of God and son of Mary, ever-virgin and mother of God. And as believers we faithfully welcome his gospel into our hearts, confessing in words our belief, and repenting with all our soul of our past sins. Then immediately, just as God the Word of the Father entered the Virgin's womb, so also in ourselves the word which we receive in learning right belief appears like a seed. You should be amazed when you hear of such an awe-inspiring mystery, and because the word is reliable you should receive it with full conviction and faith.
In fact we receive him not bodily, as the Virgin and Mother of God received him, but both spiritually and substantially. And the very one whom the chaste Virgin also received, we hold in our own hearts, as Saint Paul says: It is God, who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shown in our hearts to reveal the knowledge of his Son. In other words: he has become wholly substantial in us. And that he actually meant this, he made clear in the next verse: But we contain this treasure in earthenware pots, calling the Holy Spirit a treasure. But elsewhere he also calls the Lord Spirit: The Lord is the Spirit, he says. And he tells us this so that if you hear the words the Son of God, you should think of and hear the words the Spirit at the same time. Again, if you hear the Spirit mentioned you should join the Father to the Spirit in thought, because concerning the Father too it is said: God is Spirit. You are constantly taught that the Holy Trinity is inseparable and of the same substance, and that where the Son is the Father is also, and where the Father is the Spirit is also, and where the Holy Spirit is the whole of the deity in three persons is, the one God and Father with Son and Spirit of the same substance, "who is praised for ever. Amen."
So if we wholeheartedly believe and ardently repent, we receive the Word of God in our hearts, as has been said, like the Virgin, if of course we bring with us our own souls chaste and pure. And just as the fire of the deity did not consume the Virgin since she was supremely pure, so neither does it consume us if we bring with us chaste and pure hearts; on the contrary it becomes in us the dew from heaven, a spring of water, and a stream of immortal life.
Symeon the New Theologian (949-1022), born in Galata in Paphlagonia, Symeon was educated in Constantinople, where in 977 he entered the famous monastery of Studios. Soon afterward he transferred to the nearby monastery of Saint Mamas, was ordained priest in 980, and about three years later became abbot. During his twenty-five years of office he instilled a new fervor into his community, but opposition to his teaching forced him to resign in 1005 and in 1009 he was exiled to Palonkiton on the other side of the Bosphorus. He turned the ruined oratory of Saint Marina into another monastery, and although he was soon pardoned, chose to remain there until his death rather than compromise his teaching. The greatest of Byzantine mystical writers, Symeon combined the contemplative tradition of Mount Sinai with the cenobitic tradition of Saint Basil and Saint Theodore of Studios. Symeon was much influenced by the homilies attributed to Macarius of Egypt, and taught that mystical experience of God is a normal part of a truly Christian life. For him this meant having a personal relationship with Christ dwelling in us through the Spirit. Symeon is called the "new" theologian to distinguish him from Saint Gregory Nazianzen, who has the title of "the theologian."
Ann Persson is the author of The Circle of Love:
Praying with Rublev's Icon of the Trinity
We can trust the Holy Spirit to lead us into worship, not of the icon but of the Godhead that it portrays.
Although the Father, Son and Holy Spirit are of one essence, nevertheless there are individual distinctions, and Rublev makes that wonderfully plain to see.
God the Holy Spirit
We will start following the movement around the circle with the figure on the right, the Holy Spirit. He is the one who leads us in and interprets the life of God to us. He is dressed in a blue tunic with a gorgeous light-green mantle, probably painted in terre verte pigment, otherwise known as 'green earth'. Green is the liturgical colour of Pentecost in the Orthodox Church and the symbolic colour of the Holy Spirit. The Spirit, who breathes life, wears colours that speak of creation. Blue reminds us of sky and water; green speaks of vegetation. All living things owe their freshness to his touch.
His is the only stave that is seen in its full length, as if it is pointing towards earth. His hand gives the impression of not only blessing the cup of sacrifice but also of indicating downwards, for he is the one who breathes the life of God into us. His action is to transform us and it is through him that we are invited to experience new life in Christ.
Above the Spirit is a mountain. Maybe the mountain represents faith, a gift of the Holy Spirit or the meeting places where God revealed his glory, such as Mount Sinai, where he appeared to Moses, or the mount of transfiguration, where Jesus was seen in glory by three of his disciples.
As the icon is based on the story of Abraham, however, perhaps the mountain represents Mount Moriah, on which Isaac, the promised son in the story, would be offered for sacrifice–Abraham's response to a test that God devised to prove his faith. The story is recorded in Genesis 22 and it is a foreshadowing of the greater story of the triune God's self-sacrificing love in the giving of the Son to be our Saviour.
The curvature of the body and the bowed head of the figure on the right draw us into the circle and lead us towards the central figure, whom I have taken to be Christ the Son. The Spirit does not let us stay with himself. His work is to reveal God the Father through God the Son.

A Reuters investigation reveals that Binance, the world’s biggest cryptocurrency exchange by volume, allows users in Iran to trade in defiance of U.S. sanctions.
Binance Found to Offer Cryptocurrency Services in Iran Despite US Sanctions
Binance can’t seem to shake the impression that it’s prepared to do everything and everything to be at the top of the game when it comes to cryptocurrency exchanges, even if it means accepting trades from users in countries that have been sanctioned.
According to a story published by Reuters on Monday, which was based on many interviews with dealers, it was found that Iranians continued to operate on the Binance exchange despite the sanctions imposed by the United States in 2018 on their home country.
According to the reports, these exchanges continued right up to September of 2021. One trader from Iran, a business development professional called Mehdi Qaderi, used a virtual private network (VPN) in order to trade over $4,000 on Binance. He said that everyone in Iran used Binance.
In response to the article, Changpeng Zhao, better known by his Twitter handle “CZ,” the founder and CEO of Binance, rushed to Twitter to state that the company has been using Reuters WorldCheck as one of the KYC verification methods since 2018.
Shortly after that, the CEO also sent a tweet confirming its dedication to AML regulations. The blog post claimed that Binance is neither a corporation located in the United States nor is it headquartered there.
However, out of respect for U.S. law and the significance of America in the global economy, they restricted all access to their platform to anybody based in Iran.
And then they deployed more advanced complicated detecting technologies that enabled them to further clamp down on users in sanctioned locations who had access to sophisticated masking tools.

A federal judge blocked Kentucky and Arkansas from requiring some Medicaid recipients to work, another setback for a Trump administration policy that other states are seeking to adopt.
In simultaneous rulings, U.S. District Judge James Boasberg in Washington decided on Wednesday that work rules in the two states shouldn’t stand. He’d ruled against the requirements in Kentucky once before.
“The secretary’s failure to consider the effects of the project on coverage alone renders his decision arbitrary and capricious,” Boasberg wrote of the Arkansas program’s approval by U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Alex Azar.
The judge based that decision on his own ruling last year faulting Kentucky for having failed to adequately consider whether its program “would in fact help the state furnish medical assistance to its citizens, a central objective of Medicaid.”
HHS, for its part, failed to remedy the defects that previously prompted him to block the Kentucky program, Boasberg said. The states required approval by HHS to put their programs in place.
The court “cannot concur that the Medicaid Act leaves the secretary so unconstrained, nor that the states are so armed to refashion the program Congress designed in any way they choose,” he said, and remanded the program to the federal agency for further review.
Boasberg was appointed to serve as federal judge by former President Barack Obama.
“We will continue to defend our efforts to give states greater flexibility to help low-income Americans rise out of poverty,” Seema Verma, administrator of the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, said in an emailed statement.
Kentucky Attorney General Andy Beshear, who is seeking to unseat incumbent Republican Gov. Matt Bevin, promised to rescind the directive if he wins and in a statement hailed the “decision to overturn Matt Bevin’s callous waiver.” A representative of the governor couldn’t immediately be reached for comment.
Adam Meier, secretary of Kentucky’s Cabinet for Health and Family Services, the state’s health care and human services agency, disagreed, calling the judge’s decision illogical.
“Although a setback to our implementation schedule, we believe that we have an excellent record for appeal and are currently considering next steps,” Meier said in a statement.
Arkansas Attorney General Leslie Rutledge, a Republican, also criticized the ruling, saying she’s disappointed and reviewing decision to decide what to do next.
Medicaid covers more than 75 million low-income Americans, including 30 million children. The program, jointly funded by the federal government and states, cost about $580 billion in 2017. It’s usually one of the biggest budget lines for states.
Permitting states to impose work requirements in their Medicaid programs for the first time is one of the Trump administration’s signature health policies. So far, 15 states including Michigan, Ohio and Virginia have asked Washington to approve new Medicaid work rules, according to data compiled by the Kaiser Family Foundation, a health research group.
Advocates representing people whose coverage is endangered challenged the federal government’s approval of the Kentucky and Arkansas plans in court last year, arguing that they contradict Medicaid’s intended purpose to improve health. Boasberg heard oral arguments on both cases March 14 and said he would rule by the end of the month.
Many of the programs apply to the group of people who got Medicaid through the Affordable Care Act, including childless adults whose incomes can reach up to slightly above the poverty line. Some states are also targeting traditional Medicaid recipients, who tend to be poorer and have dependents.
The first state to implement the policy was Arkansas, where more than 18,000 Medicaid recipients were dropped from the program between August and December for failing to comply with work requirements, according to an analysis of state data by Kaiser.
Support for Medicaid fractures along party lines. Democrats typically see it as a safety net and want to widen eligibility. Republicans tend to consider it a welfare program and want to restrict funding and limit eligibility.
Critics of work requirements say most recipients who can work do, and that the red tape of work rules causes people who qualify for benefits to lose them unjustly. While the new plans vary by state, some include cost-sharing for Medicaid participants in addition to stricter eligibility rules.
Boasberg’s ruling won’t require Arkansas to re-enroll those who lost coverage under the policy last year, but they became eligible again at the start of 2019 and can seek to re-enroll. The ruling requires the state to tell Medicaid organizations that they shouldn’t remove people based on the work requirements going forward. In most states, Medicaid is now run through contracts with private insurers.
Medicaid recipients lost coverage if they didn’t comply with work rules for three months over the course of the year, so no one has yet been terminated in 2019.
The cases are Stewart v. Hargan, 18-cv-152, and Gresham v. Azar, 18-cv-1900, U.S. District Court, District of Columbia (Washington).

Contribution of ATM mutations to breast cancer susceptibility
We are studying the role of the ATM gene in breast cancer (BC). Mutations in the two major BC susceptibility genes, BRCA1 and BRCA2, account for only 20 to 50% of families at high risk for the disease. ATM is a third candidate for BC susceptibility based on previous epidemiological studies. Although many reports failed to find a link between ATM mutations and BC, studies with new, more sensitive technologies such as DHPLC cast doubt on the negative results. In our previous study of 270 Austrian families with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (HBOC), 3.7% had deleterious ATM mutations. However, it was not possible to measure the penetrance of these alleles without further family data. In our current study of 192 Australian families, there is an average of 5 samples per family. Pedigree analysis of these families will allow us to determine if the ATM alleles segregate with BC.
The SGTC1 established a collaboration with kConFab in Australia, the University of Melbourne2 , Australia, the University of Vienna3 , Austria, the University of Kiel4 , Germany, and the Queensland Institute of Medical Research5 , Australia.
This work is funded by the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation .

WOMEN IN ART: Artists, Gentileschi to Emin
Until the 1970's an Art History student could well believe there were no women artists in the entire history of Western Art. None appeared in key texts neither H.W. Janson's The History of Art nor Ernst Gombrich's The Story of Art.
Is this because there were none?
Feminist Art Historians attempted to rewrite the 'canon'. It was not an easy task! Where was the evidence? Where were the art works? Did they even utilize techniques, or depict subjects, acceptable as Fine Art?
Research over the past few decades has changed the subject of Art History and the Art we see in galleries and museums.
This lecture will discover Old Mistresses and contemporary women artists: from Artemisia Gentileschi to Tracey Emin.

On Wednesday, 21st September, we held our second Safer for Women event at Nottingham Trent University. As you may be aware, Nottingham Women’s Centre recently made news headlines for our work with Nottinghamshire Police – the only police force in the country to categorise misogyny as a form of hate crime. This event was an opportunity to share our learning with a national audience and also to look at what more needs to be done to make public spaces safer for women. Once again, there was significant interest from the press – highlighting what an important issue street harassment is for women across the country.
The event was chaired by Chief Constable Sue Fish, with speakers including Sam Smethers, Chief Executive of The Fawcett Society and Laura Bates, founder of The Everyday Sexism Project. We were delighted to welcome representatives from 16 national police forces, all keen to understand how and why Nottinghamshire Police have taken this groundbreaking step.
The event was opened by Paddy Tipping who, as our Police and Crime Commissioner, has been instrumental in providing funding for the project. This funding not only enabled us to hold the event but also financed vital training for all front line officers, an integral part of the initiative’s success, and the ongoing comms work to publicise the initiative locally.
Following Paddy’s opening address, we launched ‘Because I Am A Woman’, a video detailing women’s personal experiences of street harassment and misogyny hate crime in Nottinghamshire. We were thrilled that a number of the women featured in the video were able to attend the event. The video was incredibly well received and was subsequently released online, where it has so far been viewed more than 50,000 times.
The morning included talks by our own Melanie Jeffs and Chief Constable Fish about the history of the initiative and our learnings for other forces wishing to follow suit. We also heard from Sam Smethers about the need for misogyny to be classed as a hate crime nationally; and from Laura Bates about the everyday sexism experienced by women and girls across the country. Nottinghamshire Police and Nottingham Women’s Centre ran separate lunch time Q&A sessions, which afforded visiting police forces and voluntary sector organisations an opportunity to discuss the initiative in depth.
The afternoon’s session focused on other work being done in Nottinghamshire. Zahra Butt and Irene Zempi spoke movingly about Muslim women’s experiences of misogyny and Islamophobia and the work being done to tackle these nationally and locally. Rachel Harding discussed her research into children’s experiences of street harassment on their way to and from school. Rachel’s research was inspired by an incident when her daughter Ruth was followed and harassed by two men in a car one morning when she was only 11 years old. The findings shared by Rachel and her colleague, Kendall Newbold, brought into stark relief the daily lived experiences of young girls and the urgent need to begin tackling this issue as soon as possible. The event ended with Mark Simmonds from Nottingham Trent University looking at the role that universities have to play in this work.
Our hashtag, #nottacompliment was so well used throughout the day that it was trending on Twitter, while feedback from delegates was extremely positive. Here are just a few of the comments we received:
“A fantastic and inspiring group of people working to improve lives – awesome! Well done – you are an inspiration”
“[I will] debate including misogyny into our hate crime classification – lets at least discuss it”
“I work in a student’s union and I will definitely be attempting to instigate a movement to change – and will lobby our PCC”
The work doesn’t stop here for us – but we are enormously proud of what we have achieved so far and the impact it is having across the country. Our ultimate aim is to see misogyny classed as a hate crime nationally. This event felt like another significant step towards achieving that aim.

This paper proposes a new approach to embedding shell scripts in an ML-style typed functional language. Instead of representing each construct in the shell script language as a typed component, the proposed approach treats an untyped shell script program as a typed function. The programmer writes a shell script and specifies its type according to the intention of his/her script. The ML compiler automatically generates glue codes that serialize and de-serialize input and output data. With this embedding mechanism, an ML programmer can enjoy the full benefits of shell programming directly within an ML program. The proposed approach has been implemented in our SML# compiler.

Arizona’s top 50 high schools by 2014 SAT score
Once again, nearly all of the top 10 public high schools in Arizona — as ranked by average 2014 SAT score — are charter schools, with BASIS Charter Schools and Great Hearts Academies taking 60 percent of the top 10 spots.
The statewide ranking is based on 2014 SAT test scores from the College Board, which administers the test nationwide. In general, the higher the test score, the better chances students have of succeeding in college.
Click on the graduation photo above for a countdown of the Top 50 scoring public high schools in Arizona.
Every school on the list had at least 10 students take the test. If not, schools were not considered for the ranking.
For the third year of these rankings, BASIS schools dominated the Top 10 rankings, but this is the first year that Great Hearts Academies has so many of its charter schools in the Top 10.
Charter schools are growing faster than traditional public school districts in Arizona, with 170,755 students attending 556 charter schools in the 2015-16 school year in the state. Charter schools represent about 30 percent of the total public school population in Arizona.
Another 21 charter schools are set to open this fall, if space is available.
For a look at the top 20 charter schools based on fifth grade AzMERIT test scores, and where each of those schools are located, click here.

text: On this day in music history: December 3, 1988 – “Baby I Love Your Way/Freebird Medley (Free Baby)” by Will To Power hits #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for 1 week, also hitting #2 on the Adult Contemporary chart. Written by Peter Frampton/Allen Collins and Ronnie Van Zant, it is the biggest hit for the Miami, FL based trio. The brainchild of DJ and producer Bob Rosenberg and taking their name from title of a book by German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, Will To Power make their debut in late 1986 with the freestyle dance track “Dreamin’”, releasing it on his own label Thrust Records. Featuring Suzi Carr on lead vocals, the song becomes a big regional hit in Florida, attracting the attention of Epic Records who pick up the single for re-release nationally in June of 1987. Peaking at #50 on the Hot 100 and #15 on the Billboard Club Play chart, the success of “Dreamin’” paves the way for a full album released in March of 1988. Their next single titled “Say It’s Gonna Rain” is an even bigger hit, topping the Club Play chart for two weeks in August and September of 1988, peaking at #49 on the Hot 100. For their third release, the band and label decide to go in an entirely different direction from their more uptempo Freestyle dance club oriented material. Covering two 70’s rock classics, “Baby I Love Your Way/Freebird Medley (Free Baby)” is a medley combining Peter Frampton’s “Baby I Love Your Way” and Lynyrd Skynyrd’s “Freebird”. Issued as a single in August of 1988, the single quickly takes flight. Entering the Hot 100 at #97 on September 10, 1988, it climbs to the top of the chart twelve weeks later. The group score one more top 10 pop single with a cover of 10cc’s “I’m Not In Love” peaking at #7 in January 1991. “Baby I Love Your Way/Freebird Medley (Free Baby)” is certified Gold in the US by the RIAA.


Mixmeister MAC OS Snow Leopard to Lion Work-Around Fix
Ok, so here’s the scenario…You’ve upgraded from Snow Leopard (SL) to Lion and now Mixmeister (MM) doesn’t work. There is no easy fix but hopefully the following work-around will help you…follow these instructions and you should find yourself happily mixing again.
Partition the existing HD so that you have a brand new partition. I suggest as much space as possible because you will have to import sound files as you need them and you will create sound files within this new partition. It’s here that your MM world will reside until a MM upgrade that works on Lion/Mountain Lion is released.
On the new partition you will need install one of the latest versions of SL (10.6.7 or 10.6.8). If you don’t have either of these versions on DVD, file on your computer or access to the Cloud then visit a Genius Bar and they will install it for you (if you have AppleCare). You cannot install a different version on a new partition. It just can’t be done.
Follow these steps if you are going to use a DVD to install – In Lion insert the disk and then reboot. As the Mac reboots hold the Option key until 4 icons appear (the fourth icon should appear within 45 second of the third, Recovery Disk, icon appears). Click and follow the prompts then once finished eject the DVD and store for later use. That should initiate the SL OS to install. Once the install has completed you will be able to boot into the SL environment by holding down the Option key on start up.
To boot up into SL hold down the option key and press the on key and hold the option key until the threee icons appear and then select the SL partition. This will initiate the OS and you will arrive at a login screen. Login using the details you entered during the SL set-up and reinstall the MM software onto this new partition.
You will need to make sure you update the permissions between the two partitions and I suggest if you don’t have a clue how to do this then you speak with an Apple technician. You must make sure the permissions are set so that you can access files from both partitions before you install MM.
Log into your Snow Leopard world/OS and go to finder so that you can locate the original download of MM. Click on the Lion partition and locate the file. Copy it and then paste it into a folder on SL. Install and be sure to select the SL partition to install MM. You are now ready to use MM as you once did before you upgraded to Lion.
No…you don’t need a new laptop and there might be new processes you’re not loving but I hope this fix helps and that you find yourself mixing again and, I hope you forget the hassle you had to make MM work and that as temporary this fix may be it was worth it because of all the the amazin’ sounds you discover and make with Mixmeister.

North of Charlotte, N.C., voters of both parties can see through the GOP’s strategy of frightening them about an urban crime wave.
It was a prominent and recurring theme on the opening night of the mostly virtual RNC. “They want,” said Mark and Patricia McCloskey, the couple from St. Louis who pointed guns at Black Lives Matter protesters marching past their house earlier this summer, referring to Democrats and echoing language used repeatedly by Trump himself, “to abolish the suburbs.”
The response I got from actual suburban women here on Monday, though, was a mixture of eye-rolls, laughter and confusion. “It’s not something I’m afraid of,” said Connie Searle, 61, retired from a human resources job at a bank.
In the category of: Why bother?
The Republican National Committee on Sunday instead put out a statement attacking the news media, stating that it would not ratify a new 2020 platform but that “the Republican Party has and will continue to enthusiastically support the President’s America-first agenda.”
“The platform was always a big deal. I served on county, state and national GOP platforms. We always prided ourselves on how specific we were with all the relevant topics that impacted our lives,” Unruh said. “It is the vision of a party. This is a bigger deal than they even know.”

Fire balloons and air raids ratchet up tension as Hamas pushes for the complete removal of Israel’s devastating siege.
The current escalation between Palestinian factions in the Gaza Strip and Israel was caused by the launching of incendiary balloons by Palestinians into southern Israel in the past two weeks as a way to pressure Israel to lift its crippling blockade imposed in 2007. The rigged balloons and kites often start blazes on farms in Israel.
Over the past two years, following the momentum of the Great March of Return protests, multiple deals were reached between Palestinian factions in Gaza and Israel with the mediation of Egypt, Qatar, and the United Nations.
