This No-Bake Strawberry Pie with Graham Cracker Crust is one of my favorite desserts for summer. It is made with fresh strawberries, strawberry gel, Cool Whip, and the crust. It is one of the easiest and fastest recipes you can make on your hot days.
Tips For the Best No-Bake Strawberry Pie
Get creative and make your crust with Graham Crackers or cookies.
If your pie comes out runny, consider adding a teaspoon of cornstarch to the fruits, and gently mix until hardened.
If possible, use a glass pan to assemble and cook your pie. That way, you can easily look while it is baking and see if it is done or not.
Frequently Asked Questions:
If you didn’t leave the pie crust at room temperature for more than two hours, you can refreeze the pie crust. Be sure to store it in an air-tight container.
You can use other fresh berries, like raspberries or blueberries. Make sure you use their gel instead of the strawberry gel.

Trevor Brown reports on Oklahoma Watch... "A more than four-year legal challenge to overturn Oklahoma’s voter identification law was rejected earlier this week by a state district court judge who upheld the constitutionality of the measure.
Oklahoma County District Court Judge Aletia Haynes Timmons dismissed the case Monday after hearing arguments from lawyers representing the Oklahoma State Election Board and Tulsa resident Delilah Christine Gentges. Gentges’ attorney said he plans to appeal the decision. Read the full report at Oklahoma Watch.
Oklahoma has avoided the claims bout disenfranchisement because the state election board provides free voter id cards without charge.
- Make sure your drivers license didn't expire. take it out ahead of time. Most Oklahomans use their drivers license to satisfy the identification requirement. But an expired license is not being accepted by poll workers.
- Vote before Tuesday. If you wait until the last hour of voting next Tuesday night, there will be a much greater possibility that your franchise was given to someone else. Identification requirements have greatly helped, but someone can still steal your identity. And the poll workers accept the first voter who shows up with your identity. If it's not you, then you'll have to try much harder to make your preference recorded in the vote.
- Call the county election board and get a replacement voter registration card mailed to you. It never expires, so store it at home and have it as a backup in case your license gets lost or expires.


You'd scarcely tell the difference between the election watch at Brewvies Cinema Pub and the normal movie night — except that on a normal night, the drama's over in two hours.
It was the choice spot for Andrew Wright and Stefanie DeCaria, who are meeting friends at Brewvies later.
"This is the place to get a drink and watch the results," said Wright.
Wright and DeCaria are "definitely blue," Wright said, but the presidential race isn't the only thing they're tracking. DeCaria, a recent transplant from Seattle, is keeping an eye out on two ballot initiatives in Washington state: One to legalize marijuana, another to allow gay marriage.

There are several new things about the 2020 Report on the Work of the Government that Chinese Premier Li Keqiang delivered at the Third Session of the 13th National People's Congress (NPC), China's top legislature, on May 22.
Due to the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak, the session had been postponed by more than two months and the report had been revised several times to adapt to the changing landscape. With its length slashed by half, it became the shortest of its kind and probably the most modified one in the past four decades. However, it carried no less weight.
While it mentioned no specific GDP growth target due to the global uncertainties caused by the virus, it highlighted the major measures to be taken to cope with the new situations and upcoming challenges. Employment, keeping enterprises afloat, poverty alleviation and unsurprisingly, COVID-19 prevention and control, were the buzzwords in the report.
Jobs over GDP
The government has set no specific target for economic growth this year. "This is because our country will face more factors that are difficult to predict in its development due to the great uncertainties regarding the COVID-19 pandemic and the world economic and trade environment," the premier said at the session.Last year, China's GDP reached 99.1 trillion yuan ($13.8 trillion), representing a 6.1 percent increase over the previous year, according to the report. However, the COVID-19 outbreak dealt a heavy blow to China’s economy, which contracted by 6.8 percent year on year in the first quarter, the first decline since 1992, when the official quarterly growth data was first released.
But although there is no specific goal for economic growth, employment remains a highlight, Liu Shijin, Deputy Director of the economic committee of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, the top political advisory body, said in an online interview. The word jiuye, or employment, was mentioned 39 times in the report.
Liu said setting no economic growth target is both due to the special reasons and an attempt to explore new ways for development. "If the employment rate reaches an appropriate level or stable employment can be ensured, from the perspective of the economy it means that social resources would be fully used," he said.
Wen Bin, chief economist with China Minsheng Bank (CMB), told Beijing Review that stabilizing employment is a priority task for the government this year as the epidemic has led to fewer new urban jobs during the past months compared with the corresponding period last year. According to the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, 2.29 million urban jobs were created in the first quarter this year, shrinking by 950,000 year on year.
This year, China aims to create over 9 million new urban jobs, keep the surveyed urban unemployment rate at around 6 percent, and the registered urban unemployment rate at around 5.5 percent.Michael Zakkour, founder and CEO of 5 New Digital, a business consultancy, echoed Wen. Keeping employment close to the pre-crisis levels and boosting consumption are two major priorities for the Chinese economy to come out of the COVID-19 crisis, he told
. The need is "to get everybody back to work", he said, "which means everybody has paychecks coming in regularly, and hopefully, that's going to lead to increased consumption."

As the warm weather kicks up a notch, everyone wants out of the house to enjoy the beautiful dog days of summer - pets included.
While spending more time outdoors can be a great source of fun and fitness, remember that hot weather is not always easy on our pets. To help your pet get the most out of summer adventures, you'll want to keep your pet safe and healthy in the summer heat.
Here are seven tips for keeping your pet cool and comfortable all summer long.
Provide Lots of Water and Shade
You get parched on hot summer days, and so does your pet! So, if you're refueling, make sure you're keeping them hydrated as well. Also, be sure to find some shady spots available for breaks while on your summer adventures. Pets should always have access to ample freshwater, but it's even more imperative during warm weather.
Educate Yourself About Heatstroke
Heatstroke is a medical emergency that requires immediate treatment by your veterinarian. Symptoms include:
- Exaggerated panting.
- Rapid heartbeat.
- High fever.
- Anxious expression.
- Warm, dry skin.
If your pet shows any of these signs, or you suspect your pet has heatstroke, contact your veterinarian or an emergency animal hospital immediately.
Stock Up on Refreshing Pet Ice Cream
You know your pet deserves the best. You also understand that the best treat to have on a hot summer's day is ice cream. But play it safe, and don't feed your fur baby human soft serve.
Make a Frozen Treat Bowl
If you want to keep your pets occupied and refreshed, a frozen treat bowl is a perfect solution.
Freeze kibble or treats in a water and chicken stock mixture and let them go to town. The chicken flavor will keep them interested until they get to the good stuff. Just be sure to keep this one outside.
Find a Cooling Mat
Dogs and cats alike love to stretch out in the warm summer sun, but they can quickly become overheated. Make basking more enjoyable for your pet by getting them a cooling mat. Put it in your refrigerator at night, take it out the next day, and have your pet chill on it.
Protect Those Paws
Did you know your dog has built-in cooling mechanisms? The bottom of your dog's paws and the spaces between their toes function to keep them cool. Splashing around in baby pools full of water or hosing down the driveway and sidewalk can make a big difference.
And remember that walking on hot surfaces like asphalt can be super dangerous. A good rule of thumb when it comes to the hot pavement is your thumb. Try touching the ground you are planning to have your dog walk on - if it is painful or uncomfortable for you, go somewhere else.
Check Out Your Local Doggie Daycare
Doggie daycare offers many benefits that make life easier for you while providing your fur baby with a safe and stimulating environment. Not only does doggie daycare promote socialization, but it also decreases separation anxiety and implements a fitness routine. In addition, the best doggie daycares provide refreshing pool parties for their furry friends.
Whether it's running in our play yards, socializing with friends, joining in on a bubble party, or just lounging by the pool, College Road Doggie Daycare is the place for all your pup's wants and needs. Summer is a wonderful time of year for the entire family to spend time outdoors together. With these ideas, your pet can stay safe and cool for every activity under the sun.

Bauchi govt synergies to combat crimes as Gov Bala hands over recovered arms to Police
Bauchi State Government has declared that the PDP led administration in the state is already working in active synergy with the renowned hunter in the state, Ali Kwara as part of efforts aimed at bringing to an end criminal activities including, kidnapping, robbery and all other forms in the state in order to make it crime-free.
State Governor, Sen Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed made the declaration on Wednesday at the Government House while handing over the arms and other weapons recovered from bandits in Lame- Burra forest by the renowned Hunter in the country, Alhaji Ali Kwara.
The governor attributed the development to the partnership between the state government, security agencies and the renowned Hunter and welcome the initiative of the Inspector General of Police of deepening community engagement on security, describing it as a tool for ensuring peace and security in the society.
The governor who thanked Ali Kwara for facilitating the recovery of the arms pledged to provide the needed support to security agencies working in the state for effective discharge of their assigned responsibilities.
While receiving the arms and ammunition, the Commissioner of Police, Mr Philip Mako, said that the Police with the support of critical stakeholders will ensure the maintenance of peace and order in the state.
The Commissioner of Police also used the medium to appeal to the entire citizens of the state to key into the police community engagement on security to enable police to rid the country out of criminal activities.
Speaking earlier, the renowned local Hunter in the country who is based in Katagum LGA of Bauchi State, Alhaji Ali Kwara, said that the items were recovered from bandits who were planning to go on criminal activities in various places across the state.
Ali Kwara disclosed that he was able to burst the gang following intelligent information given to him by some informant within the area assuring that he will continue to ensure that criminals wherever they are were finished out and handed over to the security agencies for further investigation and possible prosecution.

whats the difference between a pikelet and a pancake?
in my 'professional' opinion, a pikelet is about 5 cm diameter. so you can fit 4-5 in a frypan. a pancake is just a bigger pikelet (10-15cm diameter), usually made to the same size as the pan you are cooking it in.
but at the business end, you use the same batter for both recipes, just vary the size.
personally, i like pikelets better just because they are small, making them great for children, and you can churn out lots quicker. they are bite sized, and so dont require cutlery to be eaten, and are great for afternoon/morning teas with the society ladies.
also, smaller means you can eat more, so you can try different toppings etc without feeling like a glutton :)
so why all this pikelet talk? well for breakfast this morning we (hannah, alex and i) made ricotta and cinnamon pikelets - served with banana, raspberries, yoghurt and mayple syrup. want a recipe? yes please...
Cinnamon Ricotta Pikelets (with fruit and yoghurt)
1 cup SR flour
3 tsp baking powder
1/4 c sugar
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/3 c milk
3 eggs (separated)
About 5 tspn butter
1 banana (sliced)
defrosted frozen raspberries (about 1 cup)
vanilla yoghurt (about 1 cup)
Mix dry ingredients in a bowl. Add egg yolks and milk, combine well. Beat egg whites until stiff (makes little peaks when you pull the beaters out). Add ricotta to wet mix, stir well. Fold egg whites into wet mix (best done in two batches). Heat large frypan. Add about 1/2 tspn butter to pan and melt (i didnt do this the first time and they burnt, but if you have a teflon frypan you can skip this). Spoon 4 seperate tbsp of mix onto pan (most fit 4-5 spoons per pan, left, top, right, bottom and possibly middle). Flip pikelet to cook on other side when the top has bubbles that burst. Dont have the heat too high or pikelets will burn!
Serve 3 (or more) pikelets on a plate covered with yoghurt, rapsberries, banana and a drizzle of mayple syrup!
Other toppings: mix and match to your preferences
Lemon and castor sugar
Ricotta and raspberries
Fruit (ie: peaches, strawberries, blueberries, nectarines)

This chapter presents a summary of the information and reasoning needed to justify learning about peridynamics for the purpose of analyzing electromigration and provides guidance for the development of a complete peridynamics analysis. The additions needed to convert the original peridynamics model as developed for mechanics problems to a multiphysics model capable of treating electromigration are reviewed. Experimental data on void drift by electromigration are introduced to provide a specific target for a demonstration of the peridynamical ...

This book has received the AESA (American Educational Studies Association) Critics Choice Award 2012.
Against a formidable national discourse that emphasizes academic standardization, accountability, and high-stakes testing in educational policy, Character and Moral Education: A Reader seeks to re-introduce and revive the moral mission of education in public conversation and practices in America’s schools. With contributions from a prominent array of scholars and practitioners, the book critically analyzes moral education, broadly defined as both an academic field that attempts to develop moral human beings, and as a principled discourse aimed at creating ethical educational policies and practices.
With theoretical rigor and practical wisdom, this volume offers diverse and cutting-edge scholarship on character and moral education in 21st-century schools. This timely and important book will appeal to all those concerned with both the ethical well-being of today’s students, and the school’s responsibility to prepare individuals to lead moral lives in the future.

RBC Capital Markets semiconductor analyst Doug Freedman is the latest party to examine the strong run in chip stocks this year and to ask whether it can continue.
Following a report Monday in which MKM Partners's technical strategist Jonathan Krinsky opined that semis are "the most overbought since the tech bubble," and that risk-reward is not favorable for the group, Freedman writes that there may still be upside in some of his favorite names, including Avago Technologies (AVGO), Marvell Technology Group (MRVL), Dialog Semiconductor (DLGDE), and Freescale Semiconductor (FSL).
Micron is a consensus long and has been the poster child for the long Semi's trade (MU was up ~243% last year and is up ~44% this year). Last night's earnings results met a very high bar and environment remains very favorable in memory space following recent consolidation. We found it interesting that the knee-jerk reaction in off-hour trading was lower, but most sell-side analysts are positive on the name this morning, and the stock is now trading higher. If name is able to hold onto gains and possibly extend them, it likely shows appetite for group (or at least memory names) is still strong. However, profit-taking here could be a sign the easy money has been made (SOX +18.3% ytd and has only closed in red in 5 of the last 25 sessions) and investors are looking elsewhere (dry-powder for deals? rotation elsewhere?). We should continue to keep an eye out for how investors respond to other semis companies early in the JulQ, specifically INTC, SNDK, CY and AMD.
Freedman notes "summer months have not been especially kind to Semi's over the years," and he offers a chart showing the average decline of the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index (SOX) the last five years is 4.8%, May to August:
Of the individual names, he writes that Avago has 22% to go to his $87 price target, and he opines "Samsung weakness offset by Apple ramp."
Dialog has 23.5% to go to his $30 target, and "Has outperformed nicely, closing in on our highest target on the street."
Marvell, his top pick, as 56% upside to his target, and he notes, "Believe that Wireless business will continue to surprise."
Lastly, Freescale has 2$ upside to his $30 price target, and about its new share issuance he writes "View incremental secondaries as buying opportunities."

Room 2 welcomed caterpillars into our classroom a couple weeks ago. We used magnifying glasses to make observations, have discussions and read books about the life cycle of butterflies. This week we observed 4 butterflies emerge from their chrysalis.
Today we released our butterflies at the big field. Check out how excited our little ones were to say their joyful goodbyes!


The Bharatiya Janata Party on Thursday mounted an attack on the opposition Congress after the Supreme Court rejected pleas to probe the death of Judge B H Loya, alleging that the 'invisible' hand behind the petitions was that of Rahul Gandhi who tried to use the judiciary for 'character assassination' of Amit Shah.
The Supreme Court on Thursday ruled that Judge Loya died of natural causes and that the petitions were a serious attempt to scandalise and obstruct the course of justice.
Addressing a press conference, BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra described the public interest litigations seeking the probe into the death of Judge Loya as ‘political interest litigation’, and charged that Gandhi and his party were behind it.
Noting that the Congress had held press conferences and Gandhi had led a delegation of opposition parties to the President for seeking a probe, Patra said he should ‘apologise’ and be ‘ashamed’ for his conspiracy to target Amit Shah, and Indian judiciary and democracy.
The Congress engages in all sorts of conspiracies after its ruling family loses power, he alleged and added the attempt to use judiciary for political purposes was a ‘new low’ in Indian politics.
The ‘invisible hand’ behind these petitions in the apex court belonged to Gandhi and the Congress, Patra alleged.
He alleged that they were filed to settle political scores as the opposition party is incapable of taking on Shah and Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the electoral field.
Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh said the SC order has sent out a clear message that the judiciary cannot be 'misled' by allegations based on political vendetta.
The minister, who posted a series of tweets, also came down heavily on 'several attempts' to target the BJP and its top leaders through 'fake' cases.
'It is extremely unfortunate that there have been several attempts of targeting the BJP and assassinating the character of its top leaders on the basis of ‘fake facts'. These attempts have failed miserably once again,' he said on Twitter.
The home minister said the Supreme Court order has also raised serious questions on the intention of filing such PILs.
'The Supreme Court has also cautioned against the misuse of courts in political tug of war. The SC verdict gives a clear message that the judiciary can not be misled by allegations based on political vendetta,' Singh said.
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath welcomed the verdict and mounted attack on the Congress president.
'Rahul does not want that any person other than someone from the Gandhi family should run the country. The Congress stands exposed,' he tweeted.
Referring to a Congress press conferences and a Rahul Gandhi-led delegation to the President for a probe into Judge Loya's death, the chief minister said the apex court verdict on the issue has exposed the 'ugly face' of the Congress.
Talking to reporters later, he said, "The verdict in Judge Loya case has exposed the Congress once again. Rahul Gandhi should apologise to the people of the country. They have tried to create such an environment that develops negative emotions in the people for the government."
BJP leaders Meenakshi Lekhi and Aman Sinha said the PILs were a kind of 'blackmail and propaganda machinery' aimed at maligning the people in power and the Congress leadership should apologise to BJP president Amit Shah.
Lekhi, Lok Sabha MP from New Delhi constituency and a lawyer, said the petitioners and activist advocates opposed to the BJP ruled government were trying to denigrate the constitutional institution.
"When a court takes a decision against them, they start crying foul, maligning people in power bringing disrepute to the constitutional institution," she said, adding that those involved in the PILs on Loya's death were trying to 'bring suspicion in the minds of people who are actually right thinking and have faith in the judiciary and democratic institutions'.
Sharing her views, Sinha, senior advocate and BJP spokesperson said, "With this judgment, those who attempted to politicise and malign the judiciary with mala fide intent and ulterior motives stand exposed."
"The petitioners and Congress leadership should apologise to the nation and BJP President Amit Shah for attempting to malign him," Sinha said.
Lekhi said 'a hue and cry on the lines of Camridge Analytica controversy was being created' to create doubts in the minds of the people who have faith on the judiciary.
"It is a kind of blackmail basically and their propaganda machinery at large," she said and recalled that when activist Teesta Setalvad was getting bail after bail in corruption cases, the same set of people who are not happy with the outcome of the today's verdict were hailing the apex court orders.
"This is the same institution which has given bail after bail to Teesta Setalvad even in case of corruption for misuse of funds and not just carrying out propaganda mechanism. That is alright but dare find anything against these motivated groups then there is conspiracy for everyone to see," she said adding that misuse of PILs should be stopped.
Lekhi said PILs should not become private interest litigations as has been held in Thursday's judgment.
Union minister Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi added that the Supreme Court verdict had demolished the Congress' efforts to defame the BJP's top leadership and the party, Rahul Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi should apologise for the 'sin'.
Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis demanded an apology from Rahul Gandhi, Communist leaders and a few media houses for 'attempting to malign' the image of the BJP chief in the matter.
He said the Supreme Court has accepted 'the inquiry report submitted by the state government'.
Three years after Loya's death, an attempt was made to create suspicion and target Shah, Fadnavis said.
The Supreme Court's ruling exposed the 'Congress, Communists and a few media houses (which had taken up the issue)', the chief minister told reporters in Parbhani in Marathwada region of the state.
The petitioners wasted the apex court's time and lied to the country, Fadnavis claimed.
'They must apologise to the Supreme Court and the country. Congress and its president Rahul Gandhi, the Communist parties, their allies" and "some media houses" must apologise" to our country for spreading such utter lies against our (BJP's) national president Amit Shah,' he tweeted later.
The issue of Loya's death had come under the spotlight in November last year after media reports quoting his sister had fuelled suspicion about circumstances surrounding it and its link to the Sohrabuddin case, which he was hearing before he died.
Shah was an accused in the case but was later discharged. Several activists and opposition parties had alleged a foul play in his death.
While dismissing the plea for an independent probe, the top court today said that with these petitions it becomes clear that a real attempt and a frontal attack was made on the independence of the judiciary.
The apex court said frivolous and motivated litigation has been filed to settle political rivalry.

The PVA fibre content of 0 %, 0.2 %, 0.4 %, 0.6 % and 0.8 % by volume of concrete were utilized. Alkali activated class F fly ash was used to prepare the concrete specimens. Moreover, the Ordinary Portland cement (OPC) specimen was also prepared to conduct the comparative study. The results showed that the application of PVA fibre improves the bond resistance between the pull-out bar and concrete matrix. It has been investigated that the utilization of PVA fibre in geopolymer concrete improves up to 25.9 % bond strength as compared with the concrete without PVA fibre. The addition of PVA fibre provides a more ductile mode of failure in both geopolymer and OPC concrete than to the concrete without PVA fibre. For the different percentages of PVA fibre used, the specimen with 0.6 % PVA fibre shows maximum compressive strength, splitting and bond strength. The comparative study reveals that the specimen with and without PVA fibre blended geopolymer concrete shows higher bond strength than OPC concrete.

Poorly made hoverboards risk setting fire to houses after laws banning their use on public land mean they are used more indoors, according to a lawyer for a family left homeless by a similar incident.
The expert is helping the parents from Wyke launch legal action for damage and injuries caused when a fire sparked by one of the gadgets ripped through their home, trapping their two young children and a friend inside.
Matthew Newbould said it was “vital” that a thorough investigation is carried out into the incident and all of the toys brought up to safety standards to avoid the same happening to another family.
He said: “Whilst the more reputable brands achieve very high safety standards, some of the cheaper brands have failed catastrophically, with the worst cases resulting in serious personal injury and extensive damage to property.
Eight-year-old Karen Chiem, her brother Tony, nine, and their friend Jibril Faris, 13, needed hospital treatment after a £280 hoverboard blew up in their living room shortly after it was taken off charge on the evening of January 16.
The toy ignited furniture in the room and the terrified children were forced to seek refuge in an upstairs room as smoke filled the house, preventing them from finding keys to unlock the front door.
The children had been in the house while their mother Thu Tram was outside and her husband, Vinh Hung Chiem, was out shopping.
Mrs Tram suffered burns as she rescued the children from the building and all four were taken to the Bradford Royal Infirmary for treatment for smoke inhalation and shock.
Mr Newbould, a product liability expert at Irwin Mitchell, said it had been a “miracle” no-one was killed in the fire and that they had escaped with only minor injuries.
“It is vital that a thorough investigation takes place, not only to provide answers to the Chiem family, but to ensure that the risk of something like this happening to another family is reduced as much as possible,” added Mr Newbould.

Notes from the photographer, From the Hip Photo:
Ashley and Dominic are such an amazing couple! We were so lucky to team up with them and their son for super-fun wedding photos at the gorgeous blanc Denver!
2020 threw a lot of crazy things our way, but A+D didn't let the pandemic take over their wedding plans. Granted, plans had to change, and things had to look a little different, but nothing could stop these two and their custom Nike's from getting married on 10.10.2020. Blanc Denver is located in hear of Denver and boasts a unique and eclectic vibe for the modern wedding couple. While the traditions of a wedding are not lost here, the hip and contemporary feel of blanc was the perfect fit for A+D's wedding day. The couple has custom masks and hand sanitizers made for their guests, embracing the craziness, and making the best of a difficult situation.
Their ceremony was short and sweet, and we loved every minute of it! They also included their son in the wedding, and it was so cute! He was the witness on their marriage certificate and they gifted him a beautiful chain! They also had custom Nike hightops made for their wedding! They had their wedding date, X.X, embroidered on their shoes and custom jean jackets that matched their son, it really was a family affair. :) We are slightly obsessed with their flowers, Ashley's bouquet was stunning, vibrant, and warm at the same time, Diz's Daisys did such an amazing job!
Our favorite part was exploring RiNo with A+D! They are just such a fun couple and being able to show off their personalities with the beautiful artwork downtown was a dream!

A market for more than 5,000 new housing units and 400,000 to 500,000 square feet of retail space exists in New Center, according to a study completed for the area's recently released economic development plan.
About 3,000 workers were surveyed last year by Development Strategies Inc. of St. Louis. The employees worked at businesses within the area bounded by Grand Boulevard south to the river, from the Ambassador Bridge to Belle Isle.
Nearly 14 percent of those responding said they'd like to own or rent homes in the New Center area; 18.5 percent expressed an interest.
At the same time, more than 50 acres of land have been identified for development in New Center as part of the overall plan, dubbed ``Creating an Urban Village.'' The land is available through the major stakeholders in New Center, including General Motors Corp., Henry Ford Health System, The Wellness Plan and TrizecHahn Office Properties Inc., owners of the New Center One, Fisher and Albert Kahn buildings.
New Center itself is bordered by Virginia Park, the Henry Ford Hospital campus, I-94 and Woodward Avenue.
The plan says new townhouses can be built in the New Center Commons area, and other housing would be single-family infill and rehabs along nearby residential streets. More options would include apartments in the upper stories of new office and retail buildings along West Grand Boulevard and lofts in commercial space, such as GM's Argonaut Building.
Planners say the survey shows a market for housing and shopping. About one-third of those downtown workers interested in New Center want new housing, another third prefer historic rehabilitations. More than two-thirds want to own, and fewer than 30 percent prefer to rent, the survey said. Nearly 60 percent of those willing to buy said they would pay $50,000 to $100,000; 20 percent said $100,000 to $200,000 is their price range.
Jerry Burgess, TrizecHahn vice-president for Detroit properties, said creation of mixed-use retail/office/residential buildings west of the Fisher Building, on land currently used for parking, would link the heart of New Center to the hospital campus and make Grand Boulevard more viable.
Richard Ward, president of Development Strategies, said the survey shows demand for retail development as well as a housing market.
He said SEMCOG forecasts 125,000 workers employed in greater downtown Detroit.

Considering last week marked the end of the final flight for the Space Shuttle Discovery, it is not surprising that many space enthusiasts looked up to catch a glimpse of the spacecraft on its final mission.
Discovery launched from Cape Canaveral in Florida on February 24th. Shortly before its landing on March 9th, one of the most beautiful videos captured was done so by Jens Hackmann of Germany who filmed the night sky as Discovery was passing overhead. What Hackmann captured looked like a comet with a curved tail.
What many believe was captured is something that wouldn’t be as breathtaking if viewed up close. In fact, when most of us see it we tend to flush the toilet. That’s right, it is believed that Hackmann captured a water dump by Discovery which included frozen, crystallized urine and waste water. Water dumps are a normal event for Space Shuttles shortly before returning to Earth.
A similar sight was captured in September 2009 during an earlier mission involving Discovery (STS-128). In addition to urine and waster water, it is also possible the water being seen is excess coming off the spacecraft’s fuel cells.
The view captured is the result of the jettisoned water immediately turning into ice droplets. They then quickly turn into water vapor due to the heat from the sun hitting them. A similar reaction happens to comets approaching the sun.
Who could have possibly thought that urine and water could be so beautiful? Little did the astronauts of Discovery know that in using the bathroom they were fueling a spectacular view from Earth as a reminder of Discovery’s final voyage.

- Mt, Floristic Analysis, Vascular Plants, Conservation Status, Albania
- Peci, Dhimiter; Mullaj, Alfred; Proko, Arsen
- Trebeshina Mountain is located in Southern Albania it represent an important ecosystem particularly for its community that use its resources. Few previous studies draw attention on the importance of the knowledge of floristic diversity of vascular plants grown in this area. In this study we aimed to provide the first large scale data on floristic composition of the Trebeshina Mountain, to construct a database of species and evaluate their biological form, floristic spectra, flowering period and their conservation status. There were identified 63 families belonging to 211 genera, in high dominance were species of Asteraceae family. The life forms identified in the flora of Trebeshina Mt. showed the type H > G > Ph > T > Ch while the most of the species were of Mediterranean strict type, flowering in the period between end of spring and summer. Moreover, out of plant species in Trebeshina Mt. were identified 21 threatened species, included in the Red List of Albania, drawing attention to their further conservation. The provided data would contribute to increase knowledge about the area and ensuring sustainable use of its floristic diversity.

The serial killer isn't on trial. He's on the jury.
Hollywood actor Robert Soloman stands accused of the brutal stabbings of his wife and her lover, but he is desperately pleading that he had nothing to do with it. This is the trial of the century, and the defence want Eddie Flynn on their team.
The biggest case Eddie has ever tried before, he decides to take it on despite the overwhelming evidence that Robert is guilty. As the trial starts, Eddie becomes sure of Robert's innocence, but there's something else he is even more sure of - that there is something sinister going on in the jury box.
Because of this, he is forced to ask: what if the killer isn't on the stand? What if he's on the jury?

A new spin on what Cavanagh does best
While I came to Steve Cavanagh through his Eddie Flynn series, this is an unusual Cavanagh at its best. Even though the overall backdrop and origin story can seem a bit much at times, the central characters and their storyline is brilliantly told and more than captivating. If I did read this in print I would call it an “absolute page turner,” but as an audio book this repeatedly kept me listening until late at night. The great story is also excellently narrated by Adam Sims which, all in all, easily makes this one of the audio books I enjoyed the most in recent months. Definitive recommendation!

Toneri was born into the Ōtsutsuki clan’s Branch family, leading to his eyes being sealed within the Energy Vessel at birth; in place of vision, he learned to sense the world around him instead. Growing up with his father on the Moon, Toneri desired human friends, unlike the puppet servants that served his family. On multiple occasions, the two would take travel to Earth to secretly observe the Hyūga clan in Konohagakure, whom descended from Hamura’s direct bloodline. Toneri’s father at some point suggested that Toneri should someday marry Hinata Hyūga; the latter whom was heiress of the Hyūga clan at the time. When his father was on his deathbed, he encouraged Toneri to forget about the clan’s decree and go to Earth to find friends and comrades, to live for his own sake. After his passing, Toneri thought about his ancestor’s wishes, leading to him deciding to stay on the moon isolated as the last surviving member of his clan’s branch family, with only the clan’s autonomous puppets for company.

***Due to a computer malfunction we have mislaid the contact details of several of the entrants to the competition. If you have submitted drawings please get in touch, even if we have downloaded them. As a result we are extending the deadline a second time to 1 April****Competitor Information
This is the second Engineering Sketches Student Prize run by the Engineering Club in association with D R A W I N G A T W O R K.
The Engineering Sketches Prize encourages the greater use of hand-drawing techniques to communicate knowledge, design and ideas in engineering. It is an opportunity for future professionals to get together to share examples and compare skills, rewarding the best examples of engineering drawing in a number of categories. Who can enter?
Students can be from any design or construction discipline – both engineering and non-engineering, as long as the subject of their drawing/drawings is of an engineering nature. Students can be from any UK and non-UK universities and colleges. Entrants can submit multiple sketches from different projects, but be wary of overloading the judging process.
The competition is free to enter.
By joining the competition entrants give consent to their drawings being used in Engineering Club and D R A W I N G A T W O R K publicity and educational material.Key dates
Closing date for entries: midnight on Friday 1 April 2022.
Prize-giving and exhibition launch: tbc May 2022. This will involve the announcement of prizes and a short presentation by a guest speaker. Currently it is anticipated that that the prize giving and exhibition of entries will take place online.Prizes
The judges will award a main prize of £250 for the best overall student sketch.
The judges will be looking for drawings that show a combination of technical knowledge, sketching skill, and invention in the way engineering ideas are communicated and explained.
In addition, there will be a Commended Prize of £100 in each of the following categories: Concept Sketch
- or group of sketches: an explanation of a design proposal for a project or a construction element. This is a sketch or combination of sketches which presents ideas, strategies and systems for a project which, at the time of the sketch, has not yet been built. In the past, entries have ranged from minimal engineering idea sketches, to multiple structural and environmental engineering proposals.Process Sketch
- showing how an idea is worked through to produce a conclusive construction brief. These sketches may be procedural sequences that tell the story of a design development. They may show construction sequencing. They may include combinations of section, single point perspective, isometric, oblique, exploded diagrams etc.The Detail Sketch
- showing the explanation of a detailed engineering solution in the design office or on site. For example, site notebook sketches which resolve design issues where the detail is not apparent on the drawings. These sketches are often immediate and informal (“quick and dirty”) and are used to communicate how something can be laid out or put together. Historical Studies
- which record the engineering aspects of an existing building, object, system or mechanism. Examples in previous competitions have included ancient buildings, vehicles, favourite pieces of contemporary architecture and studies of engineering objects and mechanical systems.
For examples of sketches in each of these categories see CLICK HEREHow to Enter
Each entry should have an informative title and should be accompanied, either in a covering note or on the drawing itself, by a short sentence explaining the intention of the sketch.
Entries should be submitted in A4 or A3 pdf format and no larger than 5Mb. Please note that, unlike in previous years, sketches will be judged and exhibited online which favours a size and format that can be easily viewed on screen.
Please submit your entries using an ftp site, such as WeTransfer to firstname.lastname@example.org and provide the following information:
Title of Sketch
Category/ies and short description of the sketch/es submitted.
Detail of production method. (eg hand-drawn and scanned, digital tablet)
Competition Judges for Engineering Sketches 2022 will include:
Trevor Flynn, Drawing at Work
Simon Leung, London South Bank University
Andrew Scoones, The Engineering Club
and others to be announced
The associated video describes the making of a prize-winning historical sketch by Eva Khoo, graduate engineer.
Communicating engineering design starts with pictures, not words or calculations. An Engineer doesn’t need to be an artist, however, the power of being able to pick up a pen or pencil and sketch an idea (good or bad) is one of the most powerful skills an engineer can possess. At Civic Engineers we look for graduate applicants to present design sketches to help gauge an understanding of their engineering thought process and ability to communicate ideas. A career as an Engineer can be extremely rewarding, even more so if you have the ability to clearly communicate with your peers, architects and other consultants.

Growth in the north-east of Essex has received a significant boost with the announcement that Brightlingsea, Harwich and parts of Clacton had successfully gained Assisted Area Status.
The government revealed which parts of the UK had won Assisted Area Status, which makes local businesses eligible to bid for additional funding and tax breaks.
Once their addition to the Assisted Areas Map has been confirmed, businesses in Harwich, Brightlingsea and parts of Clacton will be able to bid for additional funding and tax breaks to create jobs, invest in new premises or machinery and grow.
Cllr David Finch, Leader of Essex County Council said: “Today’s announcement is a really good sign that Ministers know if you want economic growth quickly, you come to Essex. Tendring was not included on the draft Assisted Areas Map that the Government produced at the end of last year, and we have worked tirelessly with partners for its inclusion. We look forward to continuing to work with Tendring District Council to ensure that we make the most of this opportunity.”
Mick Page, TDC’s Leader and Cabinet Member for Regeneration and Inward Investment, said: “I am delighted with this news and it marks the culmination of much work to secure the recognition of Tendring as an area of special need with the potential for significant economic growth.”
“Tendring District Council has worked closely with Essex County Council and the South East Local Enterprise Partnership to make the case for the District to be awarded Assisted Area Status. The campaign has also been supported by local MP’s Bernard Jenkin and Douglas Carswell, and by the Haven Gateway Partnership.
“Assisted Area Status offers the potential for considerable financial advantages to companies within the Tendring area, particularly with regard to the Offshore Renewables Sector in Harwich and Brightlingsea, and more generic manufacturing businesses along the A120 growth corridor.”
Peter Jones, Chairman of the South East Local Enterprise Partnership (SELEP) said: “This is great news for Essex and Tendring and builds upon the excellent case for new growth and jobs that has been presented. We have been delighted to promote the huge opportunities locally in key industries such as renewable energy in our Growth Deal proposals to Government. It is a great example of the MPs, council leaders and the LEP working together for local people and business.”
Eligible areas are selected based on a combination of economic need and opportunity. Assisted Area Status recognises an area’s potential for business growth, and that robust partnership are in place to address challenges and drive economic regeneration.
The government’s Assisted Areas map is still subject to Commission approval and is expected to take effect on 1 July 2014. It can be viewed online at ukassistedareasmap.com.
