David Phillips is a senior climatologist at Environment Canada.
He says municipalities are still stuck in old planning ideas when the both the changing climate and changing urban centres require new concepts to cope with the new normal of wilder weather.Listen
Listening to world news one hears of more and more natural disasters, more drought, extreme droughts, extreme floods, massive snowfalls, hugely destructive ice storms, hurricanes, and so on.
“There is no “normal” weather anymore” D Phillips
Phillips says the “normal”, ie general stable expectations of climate and weather are things of the past. He says the unexpected is the new normal.
The new normal also means that the extreme conditions of “100 year events” or 50 or 30 year weather events- snow or ice storms, droughts or floods- have now become five or 10 year events.
These also mean that there are huge costs involved. When older storm systems can’t handle sudden massive rains, the flooding causes great disruption and results in vast and costly damage.
Structures built to withstand the occasional storm of the past, are unable to withstand the more violent storms that are happening.
Communities built on land that historically experienced mild flooding perhaps once every 100 years, are now being inundated regularly and severely damaged.
Cities have also changed
Phillips says that even if you took a similar violent storm from 50 years ago, cities and lifestyles have changed. Green spaces in and around cities always help to mitigate weather conditions, but cities have grown, replacing green spaces with asphalt and concrete so the water is not absorbed but accumulates into a flood.
A coastal area once inhabited by only a few, now is completely covered with houses and cottages. With sea levels higher, and residences full of expensive hi tech tv’s and other gear, damage from that same storm of 50 years ago is necessarily increased.
The Insurance Bureau of Canada said insurance claim payouts from severe weather events were not notable prior to 2011.
They now average around $1 billion a year. In 2013, they hit a record high of $3.6 billion.
Phillips points out that global warming doesn’t necessarily mean shorter winters and more pleasant summers, but a greater number of extremes. He also refers to “weather whiplash” where you have too much rain one year, and not enough the next.
Phillips says municipal planners should realize that building for the “new normal” while slightly more expensive at first, could really save money by enabling infrastructure to cope with the changed climate and thereby avoiding a very costly and potentially deadly weather disaster.

A male patient with the first confirmed case of the deadly Coronavirus is 'being treated in a Dublin Hospital'.
It was confirmed on Saturday that a man from the eastern part of the country was being treated for the killer bug COVID-19.
The National Public Health Emergency Team said that he had recently returned to Ireland from Northern Italy.
RTE is reporting that the man is currently receiving appropriate medical care and "being treated in a Dublin hospital".
It is unknown, however, which hospital in Dublin the man is being treated in.
People who have been in close contact with a male who is the first person to be confirmed with the Coronavirus in the South have yet to all be identified.
But the Department of Health said the tracing process has begun.
The male travelled back to Ireland in the past 14 days from an infected area in Italy.
He is the second person on the island of Ireland to be infected - a Northern Irish woman who was also in Italy and came through Dublin Airport was confirmed to have COVID-19 on Thursday.
Chief medical officer of the Department of Health Dr Tony Holohan refused to say if the case in the North is connected to the first confirmed case in the Republic of Ireland.
Dr Holohan said he would not state what county the man is living in or if he had travelled with anyone else in order to protect his identity.
The general public is advised to follow advice from the HSE and the Health Protection Surveillance Centre to protect their health.
Any person concerned that they may have symptoms of Covid-19 (Coronavirus) should immediately isolate themselves from others and contact their GP by phone.
Minister for Health Simon Harris said he had notified the Taoiseach Leo Varadkar of the confirmed case.
Speaking tonight, Minister Harris said: "This is not unexpected. We have been preparing for this since January.
How to follow Dublin Live on social media
"I would strongly encourage people to follow the guidance and advice of the National Public Health Emergency Team, led by the Chief Medical Officer."

“The only way to lead people is to show them a future: a leader is a dealer in hope,” Napoleon Bonaparte sagely observed. Hailing from a Corsican family of minor nobles, Napoleon would rise to prominence during the French Revolution as a military leader to become Emperor of the French, then King of Italy, before losing it all.
With the belief that “the word impossible is not French,” Napoleon employed artists whose aesthetic vision served his political ambitions with the creation of Empire Style, an aesthetic at once regal and refined. Napoleon took notice of Charles Percier (1764-1938), a French architect, interior decorator and designer, who first drew accolades at age 19 when he won the Prix de Rome, a government-funded fellowship for study in Rome. Here Percier met Pierre François Léonard Fontaine (1762–1853), who became his professional partner.
In 1792, Percier received an appointment that would change his life: he was commissioned to supervise the scenery at Paris Opéra, the most modern and innovative space in French arts. Napoleon admired their gift for theatricality, seamlessly blending opulence with antiquity. He appointed Percier and Fontaine architectes du gouvernement in 1801, giving them the empire’s most important works including renovations to the Louvre and the Tuileries Palace, as well grand estates as Fontainebleau and the Château de Malmaison.
As the progenitors of Empire Style, Percier and Fontaine established a vision of power, grandeur, and grace, one that distinguished Napoleon at the vanguard of a new era in modern history. “Imagination governs the world,” Napoleon observed, a sensibility Percier and Fontaine shared. As architects of Empire Style, they embraced the symbols of ancient Rome — the last great imperial power in the West — and infused it with pomp and pageantry of European aristocracy.
Working in the service of an emperor who imagined France as the center of a unified Europe, Percier and Fontaine brought the majesty of Napoleon’s vision to life in all manner of scale. Equally skilled as interior designers and decorators, as well as architects, Percier and Fontaine imbued a sublime splendor to tea tables, boiserie, beds, candelabra, chandeliers, ceilings, and the like. Their love of ornament was balanced by the rigorous spirit of symmetry, emblazoning Napoleonic emblems like the eagle, the bee, stars, and the initials “I” (for Imperator) and “N” (for Napoleon) alongside imperial motifs such as swans, lions, oxen heads, horses, chimera, sphinxes, rosettes, palm branches, and other figures of victory.
Percier and Fontaine’s influence extended far beyond their shores, as then-American President James Monroe ordered the Blue Room of the White House redone in Empire style after witnessing their work while attending Napoleon’s coronation, though the leader of the newly-established United States was tellingly seated out of sight of the key power players.
Percier would go on to draw far more than he ever produced, his vision as grand and far reaching as that of Napoleon. Their time as architectes du gouvernement would be short lived, but their dreams for the empire linger on in thousands of drawings of works waiting to be realized. As Napoleon observed, “What are we? What is the future? What is the past? What magic fluid envelops us and hides from us the things it is most important for us to know? We are born, we live, and we die in the midst of the marvelous.”

Cummins is partnering with Air Products to accelerate the integration of trucks with hydrogen fuel cells in the Americas, Europe and Asia.
The Columbus based engine manufacturer made the announcement yesterday, saying the two companies signed an agreement where Cummins will provide hydrogen fuel cell electric powertrains for heavy-duty trucks for Air Products, while Air Products begins converting its global fleet of distribution vehicles to hydrogen fuel cells.
Air Products plans to convert its fleet of about 2,000 trucks to hydrogen fuel cell zero-emission vehicles. The companies expect a demonstration phase to begin next year.
Cummins chairman and CEO Tom Linebarger said “this partnership with Air Products is the next step in leading the industry on the path to a zero-emissions future.”
Air Products based in Pennsylvania is the world’s largest hydrogen producer and builds, owns and operates the world’s largest production, gasification, carbon capture, transportation and fueling projects.

Everton are closing in on a deal to appoint Carlo Ancelotti as their new manager.
Owner Farhad Moshiri is understood to have had positive initial talks with the Italian who is now set to fly to London for face-to-face discussions with both Moshiri and chairman Bill Kenwright about replacing Marco Silva.
And a deal could be in place in time for the 60-year-old to take charge for Saturday’s home clash Arsenal .
Ironically it was in a Goodison Park corridor where Ancelotti was sacked by Chelsea following their 1-0 defeat by the Toffees in the final game of the 2010-11 season.
Ancelotti, who still has a home in London, was thought to be a target for Arsenal following his dismissal by Napoli.
But with the Gunners on the brink of appointing Mikel Arteta, Everton have made contact and received a positive response with Ancelotti understood to be keen to return to the Premier League.
Moshiri wants a world-class manager and Ancelotti fits the bill having managed leading clubs in Europe’s five major leagues – AC Milan, Juventus and Napoli in Italy, Chelsea in England, Real Madrid in Spain, Paris St Germain in France and Bayern Munich in Germany.
He has won the domestic titles in each of those countries – including the double with Chelsea in 2009-10 – and is also in the select bracket of coaches who have won the European Cup/Champions League as a player and a manager.
While Everton finalise a deal with Ancelotti, caretaker boss Duncan Ferguson has bought them some time by lifting the doom and gloom at Goodison, Sunday’s draw at Manchester United following the victory over Chelsea in his first match.
Ferguson will be in charge again when Everton take on Leicester on Wednesday bidding for a place in the League Cup semi-finals for only the third time in 31 years.
Many fans would like to see Ferguson given the role on a permanent basis, but he has urged the club to find a proven experienced manager - and will almost certainly remain on the coaching staff when an appointment is made.
“We want the best managers in the world managing our football club - hopefully they can find the right one,” he said. “I’ll stay in charge as long as the club wants me to do the job.
“Whether I stay is down to the club and the new manager. There are no assurances in football. But hopefully they see a loyal guy here who will support that manager. If the guy who comes in doesn’t like my style, or doesn’t like me, that will be his decision. But I’m sure the club will support me the best they can.”

Quoted from frolic:
Pinball News posted a photo of Nordman, you can see a game covered behind him.
I was at Dennis' workshop with Martin. The covered up game is not an early version of Alien.
As for the game being showed or not due to the licensing approval process: why not just put a decal on the game that says "Pending Licensing approval"? That's what Dutch Pinball had to do with Lebowski. The studio understood they needed to show something. The put a sticker on it, blocked a few images that were to be removed and they were good to go. So even if approval is not yet in, I do hope to see the game at Expo.
Quoted from Fintan_Stack:
3 Full Throttles and 2 Aliens. Sadly both Aliens out of action all day. I did not go but know a few people that did. Andrew said board problems apparently.
Hopefully they will be working tomorrow as it would be nice to get some new videos of it in action.
Correct. In the morning techs were trying to get the Alien games going in the HP booth. In the afternoon the games were taken from the showfloor. Not sure that's such a smart move as now there were only flyers, banners, promotional plastics and a sticker available. I was wondering why not just do as Stern did with Batman: have the games present, show them so people can see the product and just explain the code isn't done yet (which probaly is true anyway). I also spotted an ad with different artwork for the game in 2 publications that are available for free at the show. Both the ad and the flyers say the game is shipping now... I still have to write my show report and will see if I can add photos. I was able to take pics of both Alien games at the show before they were removed. Hope for HP they will be back in their booth tomorrow.
Here's a photo of one of the two Alien games of this morning. Not sure what the problem was and whether that is related to the playfield or something else. Notable changes compared to the games presented at Pinball Expo 2016 are the left ramp and the area above it and the small LCD replacing the Queen's Chamber toy.
One Alien game was just set up early afternoon of day 2. Immediately a crowd gathering.

Darker than Expected
Swept Away Save the Date Cards Came out much darker than I thought they would be. I used sepia pictures, so that didn't help. It looked beautiful on the computer screen, but the real ones are rather dark. Still a high quality product, but if I did it again, I'd use color pictures with lighter backgrounds.
So cute STD~
Swept Away Save the Date Cards I never ordered cards like this from a website so I did not know what to expect. The order did not take long for processing and when I received them, I was pleasantly surprised. While they were a bit smaller than I expected, the cards were great quality and the photos/printing on them looked perfect. I would definitely use Magnet Street again.

Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. —Ephesians 6:16
Remember that God our Father intensely desires for us to have all the full manifestation of His power so that we need nothing but His Son. We have perfect redemption. We have all the power of righteousness. We have to understand that we are brought into line with all of God's power, dethroning the power of the enemy.
If you are afflicted in any way, do not for a moment under any circumstances come to the conclusion that the devil has enmity against you. No, he never has. The devil has nothing against you. But the devil is against the living Christ and wants to destroy Him. If you are filled with the living Christ, the devil is anxious to get you out of the way, there by destroying Christ's power.
Lord Jesus, by faith I claim Your
victory over the devil. Amen.

Is the Canon EOS 70D a Good Sports Camera? Yes. You get great sports photos with this camera.
The soccer photos below are from a recent photo shoot and I used both my Canon 5D Mark III and my Canon EOS 70D.
I used a Canon 400mm f/5.6 lens on the 5D Mark III and a 70-200mm f/2.8 on the EOS 70D. It was the first time I used this specific combination and it worked like a charm for me.
I was surprised. I got more usable sports photos with the Canon EOS 70D/70-200mm lens combination.
1. At 7 frames per second you get coverage at fractions of a second.
2. Really fast focusing. Long distances combined with moving objects make for a challenging situations. Your 70D can handle them well.
3. The 70D has a crop factor of 1.6. You don't need a super long telephoto to fill a good part of the frame with your subject.
At the competitive high school level, the sports action is fast and the ball can travel quite a distance in a split second. You can see the progression in the sequence of goalie photos what can be captured at 7 frames per second.
The 70D's dual pixel auto focus technology and AI servo focusing mode can track fast moving objects and keep them tack sharp as they move to varying distances.
With a 1.6x crop factor, you can use shorter, lighter, more affordable lenses lenses to capture the action. I used my 70-200 lens which gave me the equivalent of 112-320mm zoom range.
There were a few instances where I was glad I had the 400mm lens too, but the majority of shooting I did was with the 70-200 on the 70D.
1. The 70D camera is a whole lot more affordable than $6,000 for a Nikon D4 or a Canon 1Dx. You get a lot of camera for the price.
2. It's lighter. It weighs about 1/3 of the D4 or the 1dX. You can use smaller EF-S lenses on the APS-C sized 70D.
Yes, is the answer to the question: Is the Canon EOS 70D a good sports camera.
Shoot more sports photos.

Adore Me, a lingerie brand, have gotten down via web-based media, TikTok for discrimination — taking note of that the application had eliminated a few of Adore Me’s recordings including models of shading and hefty size models.
The application’s calculation was transparently discriminated at its center, Adore Me composed Thursday on Twitter, noticing that while TikTok has demanded its calculation has improved since before, the undergarments’ organization accepts something else.
Adore Me has consistently seen the evacuation of their content on TikTok that highlights hefty size, Black, or potentially distinctively able models and ladies of shading, Adore Me said in a resulting tweet. This is unsatisfactory and oppressive, and they won’t represent it.
Jamie Favazza, the representative for TikTok, disclosed to USA TODAY that the stage doesn’t present content dependent on appearance or capacity.
The issue isn’t new, Ranjan Roy, VP Strategy Adore Me, revealed to USA TODAY. TikTok has intermittently brought down recordings posted by Adore Me since the brand joined the stage.
From the outset, he and his group accepted the evacuations was because of Adore Me’s products. They thought TikTok was possibly being tougher about skin versus different stages.
In its Twitter string, the brand recognized that its items and promoting may push limits of what is permitted by web-based media stages.
All things considered, long stretches of working with Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Pinterest, and the rest, have built and general assumptions around what is adequate, Adore Me proceeded on Twitter. Indeed, even inside their showcasing groups, they are staggeringly cognizant about how they present items to the overall public.
Adore Me endeavored to discuss with TikTok similarly, Roy said, taking note of that the stage demonstrated it would help, however, the recordings were not returned up by them.
Over the long haul, an example turned out to be clear, Roy said: TikTok was eliminating recordings including ladies of color and recordings appearing hefty size ladies.
Adore Me has an enormous designing group that has created progressed proposal calculations for shopping administrations, and in discussions between the advertising and designing groups, it was immediately clarified that the consistency implied something was customized into the calculation versus it being irregular, Roy said.

THE APPROVED REGIONAL AID MAP WILL FACILITATE THE NATIONAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
The Government of the Republic of Lithuania passed the resolution whereby it approved the Regional aid map. The Regional aid map was developed in accordance with the provisions of the Treaty establishing the European Community providing for a possibility to grant certain state aid.
Article 87(1)(a) of the Treaty establishing the European Community provides for a possibility to grant State aid in order to promote the economic development of areas where the standard of living is abnormally low or where there is serious underemployment. The Guidelines for national regional aid for 2007–2013 (2006/C 54/08, OJ, 2006, C 54, p. 13) also defines the regions where a GDP per capita is less than 75% of the Community average. Under these principles the entire territory of the Republic of Lithuania qualifies for regional investment aid. The Regional aid map of the Republic of Lithuania for 2007-2013 approved by the Decision of the European Commission K(2006)4959 of 24 October 2006 determines the maximum amounts of permissible regional investment State aid. The adoption of the regional aid map is a prerequisite to ensure the continuity of the regional policy and the structural funds’ funding programmes after 2006, in particular having in mind that the currently effective regional aid map expires on 31 December 2006.
According to the new regional aid map approved by the Government of the Republic of Lithuania the highest regional aid intensity is limited to 50 % of the gross subsidy equivalent, where the regional aid intensity may be increased by 20 percentage points in case of aid to small or micro-enterprises, and by 10 percentage points for medium-sized enterprises. For large-scale investment projects the permissible regional aid intensity is adjusted in accordance with the provisions of item 67 of the Guidelines for national regional aid.Competition Council Spokesperson

Nikita Sergeevich Khrushchev was and remains Russia’s most conscientious leader, who correctly identified problems within Russia and the first to initiate fundamental change, which would bring about sustained prosperity and stability within all aspects of Russia. In order to implement this, Khrushchev had either rejected previous policies for their failure or weaknesses to adequately work, in order to replace them with ones more functional at grassroots level, or to first produce policies that would allow initial growth to occur.
It is these policies which have remained fundamental to Russia; though later leaders may have furthered or readjusted them, their initial purpose remained at the core of many later policies.
Reforms were intended to produce an improvement in all elements of Russia’s state functioning collectively; with the intension of such policies providing the groundwork for their further development by later leaders and this is precisely what is noticed in succeeding offices, which saw an elaboration of certain elements of Khrushchev’s initial policies.
It is these initial policies which laid the basis for further reform, which allow me to deem Khrushchev the most successful leader; as it was reformations implemented on his behalf, which provided the framework for further sustained successful development. An example of Khrushchev’s rejection of previous policies to function sufficiently and replace them with adequate ones, is the 20th party conference in 1956. Khrushchev spoke of a “new political thinking”, in which he made visible, that previous attempts to successfully implement “socialism” were ineffective.
If Russia was to transgress from its current position – economic, political and social instability – it had to part with former ways in order to accomplish this.
Khrushchev acknowledged that transgression to economic and social prosperity had to come at a price. Khrushchev largely knew that the Russian political spectrum had been manufactured and dictated by the sole decisions-making of one individual: Stalin. As A. J. P. Taylor writes: “Stalin alone made every great decision…  Russia’s stagnation was confound, to the political momentum in which Stalin was the sole instigator.
The concept of Stalinisation was one in which all elements of Russian diplomatic and civil expression where entranced in absolute totalitarian control by one man. Transgression in any direction was indentured, by that individuals own perception of development – be it even if it was or wasn’t justifiable or applicable; as-long as they deemed it just.
As Khrushchev stated at the 20th party conference: “Stalin acted not through persuasion… nd cooperation with people, but by… demanding absolute submission to his opinion. ” It is therefore to no surprise, that the implementation of de-Stalinisation was pivotal in permitting development in Russia. De-Stalinisation was a political tool which permitted the political domain of Russia to freely express new political initiatives, without being restricted by fear of opposing the totalitarian regime. The infrastructure was not reformed by this process, rather re-opened: it was now liable to change.
It is this fundamental principle which became immensely pivotal for the development of Russia. De-Stalinisation fragmented previous policies which were deem unbeneficial, so their reconstruction for a more prosperous one – in which sustained abrupt industrial, agricultural, civil and diplomatic advances where sufficiently developed and maintained- could be achieved. The rejection of previous failings is an intellectual concept pioneered by Khrushchev and adopted by every successor of his; for its practical advantages.
It allowed the person in power to reform certain elements of the state; by initially focusing of on the weaknesses of the current system, than providing an alternative structure, which was in direct comparison to the sole failures of the previous one, obviously superior – though whether or not these advantages where correctly comprehended by such individuals, is a different matter all together.  The “thaw” was the first attempt by a communist leader, to alleviate tensions between ideological and social demands, with John Keen claims: “His [Khrushchev’s] greatest accomplishment was to end the reign of fear…
Such policies are testimony of Khrushchev’s implementation of combating Long-term problems confronting Russia, as Khrushchev claimed: “we must help people to… live well. You cannot put theory into your soup or Marxism into your clothes. ” The “thaw” was a reformation of the ideological constraints, that communism had previously put on the Russian people. Previous rule restricted the development of civil reform: working conditions and general civil liberty remained severely undeveloped.
The constant shrift between restricted and relaxed censorship was a long-term problem persistent throughout Russian history. Previous attempts of totalitarian rule had proved to be of little benefit to the state; in certain instances it furthered dissidents towards the government by the populace. As repression of censorship was bound to frustrate the Russian people, who were continuously placed in direct comparison with the west, yet in reality societal functioning differed greatly between the two: especially in terms of freedoms.
What we see here, is Khrushchev’s realisation that reformation of any aspect of Russia, goes hand-in-hand with each other. It is of little significance if industrial reforms take place for economic growth, if social reforms which accommodate those who take on such policies are poor: one is bound to affect the other, as they are not of equal standards. Such tactics are similar to that of Witte and Stolypin; who both saw economic growth accompanied by social reform.
We see here Khrushchev being the first (within communism), to create the basis for civil reformation; in order for it to accompany other reforms, which go hand-in-hand with overall prosperity. Therefore Vladimir Putin, who indicates a return to authoritarian rule, whereby media production is censored and suppression of regional provinces (such as Dagestan and Chechnya’s) right to self-governing bodies, may indicate a leadership were comprehension of the consequences of totalitarian rule verses increased civil liberty, are not correctly identified.
As Sakwa states, Putin’s Russian society is characteristic of a centralised “Soviet-style bureaucracy”: similar to Stalin.  However, a conclusion on Putin’s office is not comprehensive, as his government remains; still reforming elements of society. The “thaw” is a clear demonstration of the importance of state prosperity (economic growth), being interlinked with general reforms. The sole expansion of one aspect of the state (e. g. the economy), cannot adequately develop, as the overall environment of the state would still be lacking behind.
These general reforms can be seen as the long-term problems of Russia: agricultural and social reforms. The major mistake of leaders is to solely focus on the economic aspect of Russia, while ignoring the possible social elements; consequently drifting attention away from the ameliorated conditions of one aspect, to poorer ones. This is precisely what Khrushchev – along with Witte and Stolypin – emphasised; if all aspects of Russia are not reformed equally, disdain for a condition which is improved, is displaced onto another condition that is less developed: consequently leading to possible anarchy.
These persistent long-term problems had to be assessed equally with other pivotal reforms, in order for the state to progress; this is apparent in the rule of Nicholas II. Industrial growth was prioritised, with industrial output increasing from 810 in 1908, to 1165 in 1913; showing signs of stability.  Yet what remained prominent, was the fundamental issue of poor social conditions.  Consequently leading to upheaval and opposition: such as the Lena Goldfields Massacre (1912) and Bloody Sunday (1905).
These were all expressions of discontent with the conditions at hand.  These matters were further ignored, to point were upheaval against poor conditions was common place in 1917; which saw the Petrograd protest leading to a string of events, that brought about the collapse of the Tsar.  Khrushchev’s point is further empathised here; possibly the Tsarist regime would have been better equipped, if it had improved such persisting issues equally: continuity of industrial, agriculture and social development.
Historians Koenker and Von Laue concur with this view, claiming that Nicholas’ incompetence in meeting social and industrial demands, further intensified the already fragile situation.  If long-term matters were equally addressed, possibly the collapse of the tsarist regime could have been prevented. The tenure of Khrushchev saw the greatest attempt at reforming the economic system, into one which would pose the most benefit: such are the policies of democratisation and decentralisation.  Such policies were compelled by mid-1957.
Between 1954-55 approximately 11,000 enterprises moved from central to independent control, May 1955 major planning and financial decisions were removed from state Moscow control, to republican hold: Russia had become decentralised.  Proportions of industry were also subject to the effects of decentralisation; with Moscow-based ministries replaced with sovnarkhozy: independent organisations, free to regulate industrial activity within their provenance. In turn, greater autonomy was given to the industrial spectrum.
The purposes of these policies were not to transform the economic structure into a western one, but rather allow beneficial advancements to be made. Prior to Khrushchev, the economic system created by Stalin, meant that the majority of state revenue was derived from the exportation of grain and with state farms operating at a loss, an alternative was “necessary. ” Yet the economic system was so entrenched in collectivisation, that no other alternative was deemed possible. Decentralisation and democratisation were proposed alternatives by Khrushchev.
These policies provided Russia with the basis for possible further economic reform: it initially reopened the economic system, by making it more flexibly in areas of production and management. The fact that Khrushchev’s relatively short tenure did not permit sustained development of the vast amount of his policies, may indicate why these policies did not produce substantial industrial growth initially. Rather if time was permitted, these policies could have been further developed and produced possible growth.
Thus if Brezhnev’s tenure had experienced prosperity at the beginning of his office, it may be due to an elaboration of Khrushchev’s policies; with later stagnation resulting from a reversal of these policies. Statistics show an initial increase in production: such as iron output increasing by 56 percent during 1965-75 and then decreasing to less than 7 percent from 1975-85.  Furthered by Brezhnev’s later crippled economic output, prior industrial growth stagnated in 1970-80, falling to less than 2. 6 percent. Similarly the Soviet Union’s GNP had fallen from 5. 2 percent in 1970, to 2. percent in 1980.
It appears that the effects of decentralisation were beneficial and a reversal of such policies would therefore counter-track production: which is seen under the centralised economy of Brezhnev.  The fact that Khrushchev’s policies were contributing to industrial growth, was an indicator of its successfulness. Therefore what was the necessity of their reversal? Thereby allowing us to stratify Brezhnev’s tenure into two categories: continuity of success – due to the Khrushchev era – and poor economic leadership by Brezhnev; causing further economic stagnation.
Likewise, Stalin’s Collectivisation process had failed to produce an economic structure of continuity, with state farms operating at a loss, since procurement prices which were set by the state, had hardly been increased since 1928.  Stalin was indeed conscious of this, stating to the party that they had become “dizzy with success”; however no economic alternative was proposed.  If centralisation proved economically ineffective, why were decision not taken to alter the cause of direction – similar to Khrushchev? Perhaps these are largely signs of a poor economic leadership, on behalf of Brezhnev and Stalin.
Gorbachev’s office shows that Khrushchev’s policies were later adopted and furthered by his successors. Though these policies were not initially adopted, when Gorbachev acknowledged that the state was in a point of crisis, these policies were then re-implemented. This initial misconception, is seen in Gorbachev’s foremost policies, which akin to the predecessors of Khrushchev, perceived stability solely through economic expansion; as he stated in the Central Committee meeting: economic growth was “the key to all our problems…
Though unaware that economic growth demanded general reformation, expected growth bore no noticeable gain and thus lead Gorbachev to recognise the necessity of Khrushchev’s earlier policies; that general reform accompanied economic expansion. Therefore the later office of Gorbachev saw a continuity and elaboration of Khrushchev’s primary policies. He re- engaged in the process of denunciation, stating at the 27th Party Congress: “readjustment of the economic mechanisms begins with a rejection… Peaceful co-existence was revisited; seen in the agreement with the US, to destroy intermediate-range nuclear weapons and the approval of the dismantling of the Berlin wall.
Moreover, the civil and economic reforms of glasnost and perestroika, were but a build up of Khrushchev’s initial policies of reforming communism and decentralisation. Though McCauley argues Gorbachev’s reforms were pivotal to the creation of a civil state, the question is whether these policies would have been perused, if Khrushchev would have not laid the framework for their development?
Likewise to Gorbachev’s initial perspective, Yeltsin perceived stability to be through economic might.  Yeltsin provided state initiatives (vouchers), with the purpose of creating a new entrepreneurial class (oligarchs), which would increase privately owned corporations; in turn pose similar benefits as Kulaks. Such a class would evolve into the dominant force to allow the economic structure of Russia to transform to one similar to western lines; as Yeltsin stated: the vouchers were “a short ticket… to the free market. The oligarchs creation, meant the majority of the state’s economic resources were tied within the oligarchs; yet they redirected their own resources in international investments, rather than Russia’s. The result was a misjudgement of the oligarchs function, as they produce no abrupt economic growth as hoped. Rather they stimulated the growth of a corrupt black market. Though these policies were unsuccessful, the fact remains that the previous failing economic structure was redeveloped to the point, were transgression to a new system which could be further developed, was conceivable.
An identical question to Gorbachev is posed: would any change have been permitted, if Khrushchev did not lay the foundation for their development, as they were continuations of Khrushchev’s decentralisation policies? T. A. Morris and Alan Wood, hold a conventional view that soviet agricultural growth was the consequence of Stalin, though such a perceptive can be challenged  Khrushchev’s initial policies of “Thaw” fragmented the Russian infrastructure, thus allowing reformation to take form: in this context, agriculture.
During the near end of the Stalinist era, collective farms were operating at a substantial loss; agricultural functioning was in need of redevelopment.  Khrushchev’s methods of agricultural melioration were not merely intended for economic gain; they posed the first signs of agricultural and social advances. Taxes and compulsory state quotas was reduced, private plot was reintroduced, wages amounted, surplus labour was rewarded not demanded and Stalin’s practically insufficient “collective farms”, were lessened of their power. 25] Such policies were furthered by the 1954 Virgin Lands Scheme: its primary concern being the pre-occupation of uncultivated lands within the state.
Between 1954-60, 41. 8million hectares of “virgin land” had been ploughed.  Agricultural production was officially augmented by 3 per cent in 1954, with state procurement of grain rising by 50 per cent annually during 1954-63: predominantly from the virgin lands scheme. 28] The significance is thus, agricultural production may not have experienced a boom like that of Stalin’s, yet for the first time in soviet history, it did not stagnate nor fluctuate: it stabilised throughout the whole of Khrushchev’s tenure – largely unparalleled with pervious or later leaders Stalin had told party delegates of “a new policy of eliminating the Kulaks… ” as they were perceived to be the reason for Russia’s agricultural Laxness.  It is these actions, which form the basis for Khrushchev’s argument in the de-Stalinisation speech.
Were the Kulaks not of economical benefit, during and before the tenure of Stalin? The primary creation of the Kulaks by Stolypin, was for economic growth.  Khrushchev’s criticism was not on the idea of producing grain on a grand scale to export for an economic capital, in turn redirecting the capital to industrial expansion, rather the way it was implemented. Was it utterly “necessary”, to liquidate the most prosperous and agriculturally beneficial class in Russia? Where there no other alternatives, which would show the same output as collectivisation and yet keep this class?
The Virgin Lands Scheme was the alternative solution pioneered by Khrushchev, yet the alternative agricultural strategy was always available. Collectivisation under Stalin, involved the mass consolidation of grain; under state control. In order to hasten the rate of state grain procurement, forceful measures had to be implemented; involving the genocide of Russia’s most prized agricultural labourers: Kulaks. The Virgin Lands Scheme removed the need for state interference in order to raise state grain procurement.
The necessity of collectivisation is once again questioned, with Getty viewing it as a necessity and those such as Perry, believing it to be “a tragedy for Russia… ” Khrushchev was once again at the forefront of deconstructing inadequate policies, in order to replace them with ones more beneficial; thereby allowing these newer policies to be of greater economic advantage, as they remove the weaknesses of previous policies (i. e. annihilation of the Kulaks). If Stalin’s own direct predecessor acknowledged such a scheme prior to taking the post of general secretary, why didn’t Stalin?
Its benefits are evident: grain production would have increased and without the removal of the Kulaks, it could have further stimulated production. This could rather be a sign of – not only Stalin’s but – all Russian leaders’ ignorance, of Russia’s own economic and agricultural potential. Does not the fact that Khrushchev clearly realised this, indicate his superior economic strategising and leadership? The creations of Khrushchev’s policies of Detente and Peaceful co-existence, steamed from Khrushchev’s tenure into that of every succeeding leader: for the sheer benefits which these policies brought.
Prior to Khrushchev, poor foreign relations between Russia, the west and America, confound Russia in continuous international conflicts; bringing a halt to economic and social development of the state. We only have to examine the predecessors of Khrushchev to understand this. Within the tenure of Lenin, social stability was prevented, as the state remained in constant battle with international forces, consequently bring about civil war. Moreover, John Griggs states, Lenin’s government never saw effective attempts at ameliorating the state’s improvised economic situation. The fact remains, that involvement in war prohibited development.
A state in international conflict had to redirect its resources, from industrial expansion and/or social development, to defence departments; Stalin’s tenure is testimony to this. Though at the beginning priority was given to economic matters, during the later part (1939 onwards), all economic resources were redirected into military expansion and development, in preparation for war. Furthermore, tensions between the USSR and other western democratises during the office of Stalin, became so ripe it lead to the greater development of the Cold War.
As Churchill claimed: “an iron curtain” was drawn between the USSR and the rest of the world. 33] It’s the removal of this “iron curtain” which remained fundamental to Khrushchev’s foreign policies: constant poor international relations had prohibited positive development in the USSR and if such relations continued, the Cold War itself would evolve into one that would bring the same demise as previous wars. Khrushchev installed Detente and peaceful co-existence, because of its necessity; Russia could not continue nor economically afford perpetual involvement in War. Thus leading to relations with America, Europe and even China, being reaffirmed – rather in the case of China, begin development on a positive note.
Consequently In 1963, after a bad harvest, grain was imported from America – later becoming a regular occurrence and feature of the improved Soviet-US relationship.  However, this is not to say that the Soviet Union was not subject to international tensions: like the Cuban missile crisis of 1962.  It can be argued that the Crisis was a contradiction of Khrushchev’s policies of Peaceful co-existence, as is posed the possible outbreak of nuclear war and an increase in international tensions. However, attention should be drawn to the outcome of the matter.
After an initial warning by President Kennedy, Khrushchev agreed on the removal of nuclear missiles within Cuba and a S. A. L. T.  What is seen here is a pursuit for international peace, rather than an expansion on nuclear defences; which would prevent a similar occurrence in the future. Khrushchev’s development of positive foreign policies – or rather his approach as a peace maker – are what gave Russia the framework to remain a superpower and allow development to occur; as if these policies were not initiated, the USSR would have seen a continuity in war which would have brought her to her knee’s sooner, rather than later.
What does not allow us to solely focus on the tenure of Khrushchev to draw a comprehensive conclusion, is the relatively short period he remained in office. What remains problematic is the fact that policies which Khrushchev had implemented, were merely initiated in his tenure and developed in the that of others, and those that remained underdeveloped (such as the Virgin Lands Scheme), is the consequence of the lack of time, which Khrushchev had to firmly implement them.
Moreover, Khrushchev’s policies did not cease at the end of his tenure, but were further developed in that of his successors. Examination of later economic, diplomatic and civil reformations by latter leaders, shows evidence of Khrushchev policies being further developed, not abandoned, in order to bring about change or maintenance of an aspect of Russia. Nowhere is this more evident, than in the tenure of Gorbachev; which saw an utter elaboration of Khrushchev’s economic and civil policies.
I believe the continuity of the vast amount of Khrushchev’s policies into the office of later leaders, as self acclaimed success: they were adopted by leaders not because there was no alternative, rather because they were necessary policies. Therefore the one who first initiated these policies (Khrushchev), allows me to deem them, the most successful leader during 1905 -2005.


Leutwiler wins second Canada capJayson Leutwiler won his second cap for Canada last night in their one-all draw against Scotland.
Town’s number one came on as a half-time substitute with the score already at 1-1 and kept a second half clean sheet.
Canada had gone in front after 11 minutes when Fraser Aird produced a fine finish after poor defending from the hosts.
Scotland equalised 10 minutes before the break when Steven Naismith capitalised on some lax Canadian defending to finish with his left foot.
Both sides struggled to create chances in the second half although Jayson was forced to keep out a powerful effort from Barry Bannan.
The second half clean sheet means that Jayson is yet to concede for Canada after keeping a clean sheet on his debut against South Korea back in November 2016.

I feel the Odyssey is a great outlet for me to express my voice, share my ideas, and maybe even make someone laugh along the way!

Blue Wahoos to partner with PETA, change name to 'Sea Kittens' for one game in 2020
This story has been updated to correct a mistake that appeared in the original version. The story initially misspelled the name of Wahoos President Jonathan Griffith.
The Pensacola Blue Wahoos have responded positively to a public letter posted by PETA in which the animal rights organization challenged the Wahoos to change their name for one night next season.
Per PETA's request, Wahoos President Jonathan Griffith said the team will be known as the "Pensacola Sea Kittens" for one game in 2020.
A fundraiser to benefit PETA will be held on whichever night the team chooses to play under the promotional name, Griffith said Monday in a phone interview.
Wahoos fielding talented roster:Pensacola Blue Wahoos feature the Twins' last three No. 1 picks
"Today, PETA pitched an idea to the president of the Pensacola Blue Wahoos: Change the team’s name to the 'Pensacola Sea Kittens' for a night to help fans recognize that, just like the cats who share our homes, the blue wahoo and all other fish are important, have unique personalities, and deserve respect," read the letter, which PETA posted online Monday and emailed to Griffith. "PETA is also suggesting that the team stop serving 'sea kittens' (fish) as stadium food in favor of delicious vegan fare, such as Gardein’s Fishless Filets."
Griffith said that while the stadium won't consider removing fish from its menu, the team does value the opportunity to partner with PETA next season.
"We've done things like this before, like when we were the Mullets and a couple other names before," Griffith said. "I thought it was a great possible promotion that we can possibly be doing. So we'll work with them out of (Washington, D.C.) and see if we can work something out."
Temporary promotional name changes are commonplace in minor league baseball. Over the weekend, the August GreenJackets changed their name to the Augusta Pimento Cheese.
"This should get attention and it's good for everyone," Griffith added. "It could even help us sell some merchandise.

Music Monday : Andy Moor & Somna feat. Amy Kirkpatrick – One Thing About You (Original Mix)
As usual…I couldn’t decide on only one song – maybe because, this one reminds me a lot of Rory and Houston from The Way We Fall by Cassia Leo – so today we’ll have two songs. The second one, will follow-up shortly.
Wish you all a Great Monday ! 🙂


Mariko Yamada – former Assembly Member CA
As a social worker for more than 40 years, Mariko Yamada has worked directly with families going through tough times. She understands that too many Californians struggle because low-wages and rising costs stack the system against them. Californians are still recovering from the economic storm brought on by Wall Street greed. As we fight to close the gap between the rich and poor, we need leaders who understand that the economic recovery has been uneven. The social safety net has been shredded. Mariko will work to level the playing field for all Californians. She’ll work to make sure that everyone pays their fair share – including support for extending the Prop 30 tax on millionaires and billionaires, and closing the corporate loopholes in Prop 13.
Protecting Our Environment
Mariko understands the delicate balance that must be maintained to preserve the character of our region. Mariko has always been a leading advocate for open space and agricultural preservation. She will protect the natural and water resources on which our region’s prosperity depends. Contrary to the claims of figures on the national stage, the looming threat of climate change is real. While her opponent has taken a walk from key legislative votes that would protect our environment, Mariko has a reputation for always taking a stand when it comes to protecting our environment. That’s why she’s endorsed by the CA League of Conservation Voters. Water Four consecutive years of drought have endangered our region’s multi-billion dollar farm industry. Farmers and farm workers have borne a significant share of the drought’s burden. And the impending threat of climate change means that these are problems that all of us will continue to face in the years ahead. Considering the vital role that water plays, this is not the time to be enabling the shipping away of our critical water resources. We should be investing in innovative technology and recycling programs to reduce water use, not destroying the largest fresh water estuary in the Northern Hemisphere to ship water resources to Southern California. Mariko has been a consistent and vocal opponent of the Governor’s Delta tunnels proposals.
Every family in California should have access to affordable, healthy food, free from harmful toxins. One of Mariko’s first actions would be to introduce legislation requiring the labeling of genetically modified foods in California. Going further, Mariko supports an outright ban on GMOs in grocery stores until GMOs are proven safe. We must have a better understanding of the long-term health effects and potential impact of allergens before exposing our children to these risks. We can explore ways to meet the growing demands on our global food supply and to alleviate the harm of resistant viruses and bacteria on crops, but these efforts must be weighed against the ability of parents to know what they are feeding their children.
Almost eight years ago, recklessness on Wall Street crippled our nation’s economy – but it was families on Main Street who paid the price. Big banks had brought on the economic crisis by gambling with other people’s money and selling their customers financial products they knew they couldn’t afford. And even after taxpayers bailed them out, they’re right back to their old ways while working families are still struggling to dig out of the hole they were left in. Mariko will stand up for families instead of corporate interests.
Seniors & Long-term Care
Mariko knows what it’s like to care for an aging parent while trying to raise a family; she was the primary caregiver for a parent for 23 years while raising her own two daughters. She clearly understands that as the Baby Boomer generation reaches retirement age, more and more families will face complex care giving challenges. Over the last decade, the number of California seniors age 65 and older living in poverty has nearly doubled, due in large part to rising housing and health care costs. Without a serious effort to address the challenges faced by California’s aging population, the stress placed on our state’s resources threatens to limit the opportunities available to younger generations. Health & Mental Health Care While Obamacare has made significant progress in reducing the number of uninsured Americans and slowing the growth of health care costs, we are still a long way from solving the problems that plague our nation’s and our state’s health care systems. We must ensure that every Californian has access to quality, affordable health care. Health care costs constitute a significant chunk of our state’s budget, and remain one of the most important issues facing our state in the years ahead. We must finally treat mental health as an integrated component of overall health care instead of something separate or taboo, especially considering the close link between mental health and our state’s homelessness crisis. Mariko finds unacceptable that a growing number of people are on the streets because mental health services aren’t available. Mariko believes it essential that our health care and mental health care systems meet the needs of the brave men and women who served in our armed forces when they return home.
Free Community College
Now more than ever, education is the key that opens the doors of opportunity. But too many students who have done everything right and pursued a higher education are finding that not to be the case. They’re graduating without employment prospects in a difficult job market, and overwhelmed by the crushing burden of student debt. Higher education should be an experience that expands opportunities for the future, not a burden that limits them. To restore the promise that higher education once held for previous generations, we need to ensure that it is affordable and accessible for every young person who is willing to put in the work. Mariko supports making the first two years of community college free for every California student who meets the requirements.

The Back-Up Plan
Your face may permanently freeze into a grin after experiencing this marvelously delightful little tale. Fed-up with Joxer dotting on her like a love-sick puppy, a VERY frustrated bard comes up with the perfect solution to discourage him - one destined to prove PURE torture for a certain Warrior Princess.
Xena and Gabrielle help a village fight raiders even as they are struggling against misunderstandings concerning their feelings for one another.
In parts this story is physically PAINFUL to read BUT...it is also very well written - offering a different perspective on the events which took place during and immediately after the episode RETURN OF CALLISTO. Beginning just after Gabrielle's marriage to Perdicus, it is based on the premise that Callisto did not succeed in killing the man on the day after his marriage. In this story Xena saves the one-time farmer and soon finds herself in a living Tartarus - traveling with BOTH Gabrielle and the bard's husband - desperately trying to keep her feelings for the young woman hidden while searching for a way to separate their lives forever. Gabrielle soon recognizes in her own heart the feelings reflected back at her from pale blue eyes only now vows to another stand in the way, vows which may keep her from grasping the happiness that has been within her reach all along. Emotionally gripping, this story is going to make you thank the gods for Callisto.
Up To The Old Inn Door
Poignantly haunting alt. tale that has Xena and Gabrielle trying to discover what happened to a pair of lovers on a fateful night long ago.
I had the pleasure of getting a sneak peek of this story a while back and it's been a personal favorite ever since. Set in the time of the Winter Solstice, it has the warrior and her bard enjoying this magical time of the year while they stay at a village where the annual festival is in full swing. Delighting in all the activities, Gabrielle can't quite believe her stoic warrior seems to be enjoying herself too. What the storyteller does not know is that Xena has made careful plans to make sure everything is perfect for Gabrielle because for once she wants to show the bard just what she means to her.
This story is part of a "loose" series which began with Solstice Eve. Like the first installment, this second tale is a gift for the heart - beautiful and very touching. Still set amidst the Winter Solstice, the story takes place the morning after the events in Solstice Eve and has Gabrielle reminiscing about her time with Xena and then unveiling a little surprise for her warrior. Short and VERY much worth the read.
This was posted long ago in the NetForum as a separate story but in fact it is part of the series Beowolf began with Solstice Eve and later continued with Solstice Morning. 'Crossings' is one of my favorite vignettes ever - a simple yet incredibly powerful little tale that with only a few lines will make you feel more than novels hundreds of pages long. It is plainly put - a story about a love that cannot die and will endure forever.
Already responsible for two of my favorite Solstice stories ever, Solstice Eve and Solstice Morning, Beowolf brings us an absolutely BEAUTIFUL new offering set exactly one year after those two earlier stories. This time Solstice finds the warrior and bard in a very different place under very different circumstances with Xena feeling horribly guilty at the life she is giving Gabrielle. The little bard, however, has different thoughts on the matter, knowing full well from where her happiness truly comes. This story is very much based on the sense of love and family and hope the Solstice season celebrates. It is reaffirming and deeply poignant.
