Dubai Financial Market Company’s stock fell almost 6 per cent yesterday after the region’s only listed bourse said it “cannot confirm or deny” a report that its controlling shareholder had hired banks to advise on a merger with the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange.
Speculation over such a deal first surfaced in May 2010, but no progress has been made public since the initial announcements from both bourses.
The UAE has three stock exchanges: ADX, DFM, and Nasdaq Dubai. The latter has been incorporated into DFM.
“As DFM Company, we are not directly involved in any discussions about the subject, if any and their outcome,” Essa Abdul Fattah Kazim, DFM’s chief executive, said on Wednesday after the market closed.
“Hence we have no further information that can be disclosed, and we are not in a position to confirm or deny the Reuters report published today [Wednesday],” he said.
Shares of the bourse fell 5.56 per cent yesterday to close at Dh2.21 each, following Mr Kazim’s comment.
A Reuters report on Wednesday said the Abu Dhabi Executive Council, the emirate’s top decision-making body, had hired JPMorgan Chase and First Gulf Bank to serve as its advisers for the merger.
Investment Corporation of Dubai (ICD), which controls the emirate’s two bourses, has reportedly appointed Citigroup.
DFM shares surged 15 per cent on Wednesday, hitting their maximum daily trading limit, following the release of the Reuters report.
Sultan Al Mansouri, the UAE’s Minister of Economy, in March last year reassured the market that the plans were still being considered.
“The deal is not off the table. [The merger] is still being discussed,” he said then.
Markets in the UAE have benefited from a trading bonanza over the past year, amid renewed investor interest, boosted by a strong economic recovery and an uptick in merger and acquisition activity in blue-chip companies.
The ADX General Index has risen more than 55.4 per cent this year, while the DFM General Index has gained almost 81.7 per cent in the same period.

This book explores the compulsions and trauma that underlie addiction, using an intersubjective approach in seeking to understand the inspirations and challenges arising from the psychoanalytic treatment of addiction, compulsivity, and related dissociative conditions.
Drawing on insights from his own analytic practice and personal experience, in addition to the work of Stolorow, Brandchaft and Winnicott, among others, Haber considers the complex ways in which addiction becomes woven into a person’s life, and analyses how it interacts with other problems such as depression and anxiety, self-fragmentation, and ambivalence about treatment. Haber creatively integrates the work of Camus, Kafka, and Beckett to further contemplate the dilemmas that can arise during the clinical process and, in identifying his own and his patients’ vulnerabilities and contradictions, provides an honest, humorous and sometimes painful account of what happens in the consulting room.
With its use of rich clinical material and an accessible and vivid writing style, this book will appeal to all psychoanalysts and psychotherapists working with patients affected by addiction, as well as other professionals seeking new insights into effective strategies for treating this most challenging malady.

The beauty of Haber’s book is its focus on the phenomenology of the therapeutic relationship, illuminating the dialectic of developmental yearnings and defensive retreats from individuality as played out in the experiences of both patient and analyst.
Robert D. Stolorow founding and senior member of the Institute of Contemporary Psychoanalysis, Los Angeles
Darren Haber’s outstanding study of addictive worlds interweaves contemporary psychoanalytic perspectives with rich existential metaphors found in the works of Camus, Beckett, Kafka and others. The psychotherapy of addiction, so fraught with histories of trauma and all manner of antidotal curative fantasies, opens up under his insightful gaze as never before.
George Atwood corresponding member of the Institute of Contemporary Psychoanalysis, Los Angeles
In his provocative and contemporary work, Haber commands cutting edge psychoanalytic thought in pointing us toward a more compassionate, phenomenologically based, and rigorously contextualized understanding of addiction and its treatment. His rendering of the problem of disavowed aspects of selfhood, and its concomitant evasion of living an authentically affect-laden life, offers a much-needed corrective to the more familiar and traditional modes of organizing and pathologizing addictive/compulsive processes. Personal, astute, and moving, Haber’s work is a must-read for clinicians and patients alike.
William J. Coburn member of the Institute of Contemporary Psychoanalysis in Los Angeles, and Founding Editor Emeritus of Psychoanalysis, Self & Context

BERLIN -- The European Commission will propose an absolute cutoff date of 2035 after which all automakers will have to stop selling combustion-powered cars in the EU.
The Commission also seeks a 55 percent reduction of CO2 emissions by 2030, lifting an earlier target of a 37.5 percent reduction by the end of the decade.
Even though a dozen European automakers had already announced they would switch to zero-emissions cars between 2028 and 2035, a legal cutoff date was still needed, EU President Ursula von der Leyen said in an interview with Germany's Sueddeutsche Zeitung.
"We will still set out an end date after which all cars will have to be emissions free," she said, without naming that date. "Otherwise there will be a lack of certainty and we won't achieve our goal of climate neutrality by 2050."
"How they change their production is up to the manufacturers," von der Leyen said. "They know best how to develop new cars or new fuels."
The commission, the EU's executive arm, will set the date of 2035 requiring zero emissions from new cars sold in Europe, the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung reported on Wednesday.
The commission unveiled its "Fit for 50" climate package on Wednesday. The package will face months of negotiations between member states and the European Parliament and is likely to be the target of ferocious lobbying efforts by the many industries affected.
EU emissions from road transport have increased in recent years, and the new measures aim to pull the sector in line with the bloc's overall strategy of getting to net zero emissions by 2050.
Low-emission car sales surged in Europe last year, even as the COVID-19 pandemic hit overall vehicle sales, and one in every nine new cars sold was an electric or plug-in hybrid.
Full electrification is still a long way off, however. Even when buyers are able to afford the considerable price premium for a part- or all-electric vehicle, many have been deterred by "range anxiety" due to a lack of public charging stations.
Automakers have telegraphed that they will accept tougher emission targets only in return for huge public investment in chargers, and there are signs that they have been heard.
Brussels is expected to propose legislation that would require countries to install public charging points at set distances along major roads.
"An end date for internal combustion engines increases the pressure that the EU and the member states have to take care of the development of the charging infrastructure," said Patrick Hummel, an analyst at UBS. "It cannot be that the automobile manufacturers have to set up the charging stations on their own."
European automakers have invested heavily in plug-in hybrids, which have both combustion engines and electric motors, as a way of addressing this problem in the medium term.
But with the green credentials of hybrid cars increasingly being challenged, they fear that much of this investment will be wasted if they are pushed to phase them out too soon.
AlixPartners estimates that for 2021 through 2025, automakers and suppliers globally will invest $330 billion in electrification, up 41 percent from its estimate of $250 billion for the period from 2020 to 2024.

Hello, I'm Larissa, your next cat sitter!
I have three years of experience working in a cat shelter caring for and medicating cats so they could get healthy for adoption. I cared for senior cats, kittens, healthy cats, sick cats, friendly ones and even the angriest cats.
Everything I learned there I brought home to take care of my own cat, Lucy. I also had the sad experience of caring for two of my cats in their last days. When my beloved Hana got cancer I was there, by her side, medicating her several times a day and making sure she was fed every four hours. When my gorgeous Neko got kidney disease, I was home early from work every day to get her IV fluids under her skin.
These losses taught me just how precious these little creatures are and how blessed we are for being able to enjoy their company.
Services I offer:
- Cat Sitting:
Detailed Report: Every visit comes with a little report on how you pet is doing and a little video.
Bonding with your cat: A initial visit is made to get to know you and your cat(s) and their habits
Food and water: I make sure your cat(s) has plenty to eat and drink*
Litter box cleaning: I make sure your pet has a clean place for number 1 and 2*
Playtime: I will spend a good amount of the visit playing with your cat, as they need to be stimulated
Medication: I can give oral and injected medications to your cat, as indicated**
My visits last at least 30 minutes and I'm available 7 days a week, from 9 am to 8 pm.
I'm patient and kind and I know what your cat needs. I am great at bonding with friendly cats and respecting the boundaries of the not-so-sociable ones. I can visit to provide food, water, a clean litter box and lots of playtime for your cat, and I will treat your cats as the precious little being they are for you. I'm located near Davisville Station.
* Food, water and litter needs to be provided by the pet's owner
** In extreme cases of very aggressive cats, medication can be impossible to provide. I will let you know, at the initial visit, if there are any concerns in that regard. Most cats can be easily medicated, but it's important to know that there are exceptions.
We had a pleasure meeting and working with Larissa. She took the best care of our lovely cat. We highly recommend her anc will work with her again.
Larissa is totally awesome! She was very careful to learn every detail about my cat (Basil) as well as his feeding habits, play time, etc. that I felt sure that I could trust her with my precious baby. She was prompt with community during the entire time and she sent me reassuring messages and videos daily to see the status of my cat. I will definitely book with her again! Highly recommend.

After being denied a marriage license earlier this month, a gay couple from Virginia has now filed a federal lawsuit that challenges that state's ban on same-sex marriage. The suit is a first of its kind and follows an announcement from the American Civil Liberties Union of Virginia who are currently preparing a similar lawsuit.
The Virginian-Pilot reports:
"They thought about getting married in another state, but decided against it," said Robert Ruloff, an attorney for London, a Norfolk real estate agent, and Bostic, an Old Dominion University assistant professor of English. "They are Virginians and they want to be married in Virginia."
Of course the wingnuts have already responded:
Chris Freund, a spokesman for the Family Foundation, a conservative nonprofit based in Richmond, said he was not surprised by the lawsuit. He said the plaintiffs are trying to circumvent "the will of the people."
"They know they can't win at the legislature and they probably can't win at the ballot box, so they are trying to find a judge or some judges to overturn the will of Virginians," Freund said.
Earlier this week (actually on the day this lawsuit was filed) Andy posted an item about a new Quinnipiac poll which revealed 50 percent of Virginians support same-sex marriage and 43 percent oppose it.

Let’s face it, now everyone has the cash to plop down $1500-$2500 on a top-end, state of the art crossbow capable of blisteringly fast speeds and loaded with all the latest bells and whistles.
The good news is there are some solid hunting crossbows that can be bought for $400 and under. You’re not going to get record-breaking performance, but several models have adequate power, speed and accuracy to bring down whitetail and other large game animals.
We will list the best hunting crossbows under $400. However, even if the bows are cheap that doesn’t mean they are going to be bad. Some of these do better than the more expensive crossbows you can find.
Like the best hunting broadheads, and other related gear, you tend to get what you pay for. Fortunately, you won’t have to pay too much over $400 for these dependable crossbow models that are all very capable of filling your tag this hunting season.
Here’s our list of the best hunting crossbows under $400:
1) Barnett Whitetail Hunter Crossbow
This is a lightweight bow that’s good enough for hunting everything. Weighing at 6.2 LBS and requiring a draw weight of 160 LBS, which makes this crossbow very easy to handle. The Whitetail Hunter crossbow reaches speeds of up to 340 feet per second, and on the impact, it produces 103 foot-pounds of kinetic energy.
And as you can see from the name, this bow seems like it was made for hunting whitetails, but that’s not it. You can hunt almost anything with it, making it a piece of very versatile hunting equipment. The scope that’s on this bow is a 4 X 32 multi-reticle one that the company uses in almost all of their bows in this price range.
In regards to quality, for its price, this is a great one, and if you want to upgrade the scope, you can do so very easily because of the mounting system which is set on a Picatinny rail. Still, the bow plus scope combo is excellent, and you don’t need to change it.
With a price set at $340, the Whitetail Hunter is an incredible deal, and it offers a lot for the price. When purchasing this bow, you also get three 20-inch headhunter arrows, good enough for any hunt, a rope cocking device, and a three arrow quiver. All of these things make this bow a deal you don’t want to miss.
2) Southern Crossbow Rebel 350 Crossbow Package
The Rebel 350 is one of the oldest bows on our list, and it was made back in 2013, but that doesn’t mean that this is a lousy crossbow that isn’t going to help you fill your tag this deer season. You can see the age of the crossbow from the weight that it has which is a rather heavy10 LBS. Apart from that everything else is great about it.
This xbow requires around 155 LBS of draw weight and can shoot with a speed of up to 350 feet per second. That speed is acquired when shooting with arrows weighing at 400-425 grains, but you can reach even higher speeds if you shoot with lighter arrows, keep in mind not to use arrows that weigh below 350 grains. In fact, we suggest always sticking to the heavy side for better downrange arrow penetration.
For a scope, you get standard 4 x 32 optics, which is excellent during the daytime. The problems with this scope start to be noticeable in a darker environment or during nighttime. So if you plan on hunting during the night for predators, you better start searching for a better scope.
The Rebel 350 comes in a package filled with four field tip aluminum 20-inch arrows, a six arrow quiver, cocking rope, lube, and safety glasses. Apart from the weight and the not so good scope, everything else is good enough, and with a price point of $254 makes this an excellent alternative for anyone looking for a budget-priced crossbow capable of bringing down deer and other game animals at ranges out to 30 yards.
3) PSE Archery Fang HD Crossbow
The Fang HD by PSE Archery has probably the best price to performance ratio on this list. This xbow was built with accuracy in mind, so that will increase your success when hunting.
Weighting around 7.3 LBS and requiring 205 LBS of draw weight makes this bow great to handle as well. As for the speed, this bow can reach up to 134 foot-pounds of kinetic energy, which makes it perfect for hunting anything.
Another great thing about this crossbow is the scope. The HDV 425 is 1.5-5 X 32 scope, and that makes it very versatile. With a scope like that, you won’t have any problems finding your prey and shooting it in low light conditions prevalent during dusk and dawn when the animals are on the move and most active.
This crossbow also has adjustable buttocks, which makes it a better option for multi-person use. You can also get three 22-inch carbon bolts with bullet points, a 5-bolt quiver, rail lube, and a cocking rope with the crossbow. The Fang HD comes packed with many great features and is an excellent deal for anyone, especially for a $379 price we see which is a nice chunk under the $400 mark.
4) Bear X Saga 405 Intense Ready to Shoot Crossbow
The Bear X Saga 405 Intense Ready to Shoot Crossbow is the first out of the two from the Bear X Archery lineup designed to bring high performance to hunters at a lower entry level price point hovering around the $400 range.
We’ve seen the Bear X Saga Crossbow sold in the $299 range. And for that kind of price, you get an amazing crossbow and some great features with a full package that is tough to beat for entry-level and beginner crossbow hunters.
As for specifications, this bow weighs 7.5 LBS, and it requires a 210 LBS draw weight. You can tell from its name the speed that this bow can reach is 405 feet per second which is plenty fast to harvest most large North American game animals.
You also get an adjustable forend grip, which shows what a terrific deal this is and makes the crossbow very user friendly for shooters of different sizes.
Other things included with this crossbow are a 4-bolt quiver, cocking rope, string lube, and of course, three carbon bolts with field points. As for the scope, you get a 4 X 32 multi cross-hair, which is good enough for most shooting and hunting situations and is easy to upgrade.
As you can see, this truly is one of the best deals you can get on a crossbow. The Bear X Saga 405 is not just a great starting crossbow, but you can use it even if you have more advanced skills and more experience.
5) Bear X Intense CD Ready to Shoot Crossbow
The second crossbow from the Bear X lineup, the Intense CD, is very similar to the Saga 405. Compared to it, this bow is a little bit heavier at around 7.8 LBS, and it requires less draw weight, with it being at 175 LBS.
Because of the lower draw weight, the speed is slightly less, set at around 400 feet per second. Apart from those, everything else is almost the same, including the scope and the package it comes with, which just like the Saga 405, includes a 4-bolt quiver, lube, cocking rope, and three Bear X True X arrows.
The Intense CD’s price is $344 which is a bit higher than the Saga 405, but that doesn’t mean that his bow is not worth it. If you decide to purchase this one, you won’t be disappointed.
As you can see, there are not so many options for the Best Hunting Crossbows Under $400. However, the crossbows that we have featured on this list are still excellent at what they do and can really hold their own when competing with other more expensive hunting crossbow models.
If you are just getting into crossbow hunting and don’t want to spend an arm and a leg, any of our suggestions make for a wise choice. Just remember to limit your shot distances to 30 or 40 yards with these crossbows in the $400 range. For super long shots reaching out to 75 to even 100 yards, you will need to spend considerably more money.

Taylor Swift recently debuted her music video for “Wildest Dreams,” co-starring Scott Eastwood, and it is receiving criticism from some media outlets for its content.
The video was shot in an undisclosed location in Africa and directed by Joseph Kahn. It tells the story of two 1950s actors having a relationship while shooting a film in Africa. Jezebel’s Madeleine Davies describes the storyline as Old Hollywood meets Out of Africa. “It’s all passion and desire while on location (isn’t it funny how wild things get in Africa?), but once back in Hollywood and shooting on a soundstage, our poor lovelorn colonizers just can’t get it together.”
Many outlets have pointed out that the film only depicts wild animals and white people with, as Davies puts it, “bizarrely, nary a black person in sight.” The title of a Fader article about the video reads, “Taylor Swift Went To Africa To Film A Music Video And There’s Only White People In It.” The Huffington Post, Mic and The Daily Dot criticized Swift for the video.
Huffington Post’s Lauren Duca said the video “channels wild colonialism.” She wrote, “Instead of the cultural appropriation that has become almost status quo in today’s pop music, Swift has opted for the bolder option of actually just embodying the political exploitation of a region and its people.”
The Daily Dot’s Nico Lang said the video “has a major race problem.” Lang said, “For a clip that’s set in Africa — it’s about as white as a Sunday morning farmer’s market.”
“The video wants to have its old-school Hollywood romance but ends up eating some old-school Hollywood racism, too,” said Lang, adding, “Just because you represent the past or pay respect to it doesn’t mean you need to recreate its worst aspects.”
Mic’s Zak Cheney-Rice talked about the history of white colonialism in Africa. “The video’s narrative of white people finding romance in the hinterlands of a land wracked by colonial violence is not only obliviously ahistorical, but also exhibits tropes that people across the African diaspora have been trying to dispel for years,” said Cheney-Rice.
Taylor Swift’s camp was contacted by THR for comment and did not reply at press time.

The prominent Betsson Group and GoldenRace have confirmed that they have officially partnered up, with GoldenRace becoming the group’s first and sole provider of virtual sports games in Greece.
Online players in Greece will now be able to enjoy virtual sports betting through an aggregator platform.
GoldenRace was founded in Malta in 2006, and it now employs over 300 people. Significantly, its games are now available at over 400 websites across the world. This deal with Betsson builds on GoldenRace’s recent agreement with Paston to provide games to the Spanish market.
Betsson Greece Managing Director Thanos Marinos is delighted about the deal, which fits perfectly, in his view, with his group’s strategy of always striving to provide the very best possible entertainment for their customers.
Fresh new content for Betsson customers
“Bringing in new and fresh content is a big part of what we do,” he said.
“I would like to welcome GoldenRace to our product portfolio, which I am sure our customers will find as a great addition to our existing offering.”
GoldenRace CEO and Founder Martin Wachter believes the deal helps to put GoldenRace in a great position to benefit from the expanding Greek market.
“The Greek gambling market is growing fast and offers exciting opportunities,” he said.
“We knew that when we first started operations in the country, and it is amazing to join forces with Betsson, to keep offering Greek players our leading virtuals.”
Betsson is one of the world’s top brands for online sports betting. Last year, the group made a point of targeting the re-regulated Greek market, as shown by their acquisition of two Hellenic Gaming Commission (HGC) licences.
Chief Commercial Officer, Ronni Hartvig, revealed last year when speaking to SBC News that expansion in locally regulated markets represented a real opportunity to drive expansion for the brand.
Prioritising such projects can often be a tricky balancing act when it comes to maintaining existing business strategies in other markets, but Hartvig was confident the group could manage Greek expansion successfully.
The group also opened a tech hub in Athens in 2021, something that Hartvig feels is a real asset, especially given its geographical proximity to the group’s head office in Malta.
Betsson to offer something different in Greece
He also explained that Betsson’s strategy was to respect the operators already present in the Greek market by offering customers something different. The virtual football betting and other virtual sports options available via GoldenRace would seem to be plank of this strategy.
“Our approach is that we want to be different through our offering,” he said.
“We will definitely have an approach to position ourselves as offering fun and entertainment in order to attract attention to our operations.”
Betsson is looking to position itself as one of Greece’s top operators in the coming years. Flexibly adjusting to the differing local demands of the market will be a big part of that.
“At Betsson, we are always listening to our customers’ needs and wants and we constantly strive to provide the very best entertainment to our clients,” Marinos added.

Pumpkin machetes contain saponin compounds and flavonoids, which are both efficacious lowering blood glucose levels and improve pancreatic beta cells to produce insulin again.
"These materials are contained in a flask with machetes," said Rijki told reporters after the awards ceremony at the Faculty in Yogyakarta.
Based on his research revealed Rijki, saponin content significantly can lower blood glucose. Although these new experiments conducted on mice, but she saw results quite encouraging.
"The results of measurement, the higher the dose of saponin will be significantly lower glucose levels," he said.
He said to treat diabetes in humans, is required machete 400-800 grams pumpkin that has been extracted to be consumed each day. But if it's too much trouble, he suggested a machete pumpkin can be consumed directly by a blender puree. "Saponin soluble in water, when cooked, saponin levels will be reduced," he said.
According to him, the initial idea to use pumpkin machete comes when he returned to his home in the village of Caringin, Sukabumi, West Java. He saw many farmers are cultivating pumpkins machetes.
At that time, Rijki trying to dig information about the efficacy of this pumpkin over the internet. After that, he tried to do further research by testing in the laboratory. He used the rat as a guinea pig.
"These preliminary results are indeed significant.'s Just that in my village, not many farmers who grow pumpkins machete again. Hopefully with these findings machetes pumpkin production is increasing," he said.
Because of his accomplishments, it Rijki earn medals and certificates from the PT. Alltech Biotechnology Indonesia, which is given directly by the General Manager submitted directly DVM, Isra Noor.
Also attending the awards ceremony, Vice Dean for Student Affairs, Cooperation and Alumni Faculty drh. Setyo Budhi, MP.
GM Indonesia PT Alltech Biotechnology, Isra Noor, said Rijki was the only student from the Department of Veterinary Medicine who won this award. "This year many of the farms majors and graduate students," he said.

It’s now unsafe to eat out, too many fake foods being exposed globally
https://youtu.be/4wdsyH1cnjA (VIDEO: Buns with fake stuffing)
https://youtu.be/3zolK56sBMU (VIDEO: Fake plain buns/cup cakes)
Fake foods have been exposed globally, especially in China, recently.
Suffice to say, it is now absolutely very risky to eat out as you may unknowingly be consuming fake food and thus jeopardise your or your children’s health. (View the above two attached video clips)
Even the simple plain bun/cup cake or bun with stuffing can be served or sold as fakes.
“In this modern world of science and technology, the unscrupulous businessmen or entrepreneurs can now resort to making or manufacturing fake foods to reap insane profits,” Gerakan Deputy Speaker Syed Abdul Razak Alsagoff said.
He said the federal government, as a caring and responsible government, must take the lead and act even before such fake foods hit the domestic market, if it had not yet.
“They say prevention is better than cure. Taking precaution is also better than to be very, very sorry later,” he added.
Syed Razak urged the federal government to urgently enact punitive laws to punish potential “evil” eateries and operators who resort to selling fake foods to reap “insane profits”.
“Such evil people must not be given a second chance. They must be jailed and then blacklisted for life in the food and beverage industry,” he added.
He said Members of Parliament (MPs) must unite to push for harsher laws to punish potential fake food sellers or operators.
“Do it fast before such fake foods hit the domestic market and consumers,” he said, adding that MPs should treat this issue seriously and with urgency.

The battery in our boat is being charged by the solar panels on the boat. The battery is used during take-off and at times when the incidence of sunlight on our solar panels is limited. This makes us less dependent on the weather conditions. Because the capacity of the battery from last year was limited by the regulations, now it is important to build the most efficient battery possible. We do this by minimizing the electrical resistance, by selecting the ideal cells and by ensuring that the battery operates under its optimum working conditions.
The battery in our boat is made up of individual cylindrical lithium-ion cells. Due to the number of cells in series, we can design the voltage of the battery at the desired level and the number of cells in parallel is then determined by the desired capacity. The cells we use are lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide cells. These cells have a very high energy density and high power density.
The condition of the battery is constantly monitored by the battery management system. This system is made by the team itself and monitors the voltage and temperature with the help of various sensors. If the temperature becomes too high, the battery management system switches the cooling on and by measuring the voltage it also ensures that the battery cannot be discharged too far or charged. The system also ensures that all cells are balanced so that one cell is not charged more than another cell.

Friends of Greiner, the newly formed advisory board at W.E. Greiner Exploratory Arts Academy, worked with the City of Dallas Graffiti Outreach Program to create a new mural for the school. The mural is above the entry to the school’s Stevie Ray Vaughan auditorium and depicts the blues musician, who was a student at Greiner and grew up nearby. “We believe that using graffiti for the mural will appeal to the creative mindset of the middle school students and evoke a sense of pride and belonging in the school,” says Friends of Greiner co-founder Rebecca Ordinario.

NAR identifies metro areas with the highest deficit in home construction, as well as those areas where the housing supply appears to be sufficient to meet the demands of home buyers. The Monthly Housing Shortage Tracker is an index, which compares how many permits are issued relative to the number of new jobs. The higher the index the greater the housing shortage since it shows that more jobs have been created relative to the number of new homes constructed. Based on the historical average, two permits are issued for every new job. However, the highest value for the index in August was 14.8 in the New York metro area. This means that for every 15 new jobs a single-family unit is permitted. In contrast, a single-family unit is permitted for every new job in the Houston metro area.
The “usual suspects” are at the top of the list. It is noteworthy that, among the top ten metro areas with the most severe housing shortage, seven are located in California.
The visualization below allows you to see how many permits are issued for every new job for 178 metro areas. Click on a metro area on the map and see the number of permits issued and new jobs created in the last three years.
Comparison to a Year Earlier
Compared to a year earlier, the index dropped in more than 70 percent of metro areas including areas with serious housing supply issues. A lower index means that more single-family permits are issued per new job than a year earlier. However, more single-family permits does not necessarily result in a lower index value. For instance, single-family permit issuance increased in Salinas, CA from 738 units (Jun/2014-Jun/2017) to 802 units (Jun/2015-Jun/2018). Nevertheless, the index increased because job creation was stronger than the issuance of single-family permits.
The average index dropped from 4.0 to 3.5 in August 2018. For instance, New York had the highest value for the index in August 2018 at 14.8. However, the index was even higher at 17.0 a year earlier. Thus, while a single-family permit was issued for every 17 new jobs in 2017, a single-family permit has been issued for every 15 new jobs in 2018. Currently, a single-family permit is issued for every 13 new jobs in the San Jose metro area in 2018 compared to 15 new jobs in 2017.
The visualization below shows whether housing supply conditions are improving or not. In the blue areas the index dropped (improving housing supply conditions) while in the orange areas the index increased (tighter housing supply) compared to last year.
The average was calculated based on the indices of these 178 metro areas.

One of the most important differences between man and animal is man’s ability to speak and make others understand him. Language is only possible because within each society, people agree to understand a particular pattern of sound in a particular way. For instance, all English speaking countries understand the meaning of the word ‘water’. According to Akindele and Adegbije, language is:
A human phenomenon that has form which can be described in terms of units of sound (phonemes), word, morphemes, phrases, sentences and paragraphs or discourse (1).
This definition shows that language has often been identified as the most unique attribute of man. It is through language that human beings grasp and understand reality and transmit it from one generation to another. This view is buttressed by Blakar who asserts that “we actually live and behave in a world of language” (4).

The Atlantic City Ballet is finally home
After 32 years, the Atlantic City Ballet finally has a place to hang its hat and kick up its heels on a permanent basis.
Its nomadic days of wandering from one temporary home to the next have come to an end. Not only does the ballet finally have a home, it just happens to be one of the most famous — and obvious — addresses in town.
Last March, the ballet moved into offices and studio space at historic Boardwalk Hall.
“When we got to move into Boardwalk Hall, we finally had a home in the city we’re named after,” says Papa, who founded the troupe in 1982 and remains its artistic director today. “But there’s been very frustrating times because it’s taken so long.”
The ballet’s offices and rehearsal studio have their own special space at the hall, which was built in the late 1920s and remodeled into a modern arena in 2000. After settling into its new home, the ballet and the born-again Claridge Hotel struck a deal for the former casino, now a boutique hotel, to become the company’s home base for most of its Atlantic City performances.
When it’s not on the road or performing in other area venues, like a series of free summer programs on the Boardwalk opposite Boardwalk Hall, the Atlantic City Ballet performs in the Claridge’s 500-seat Celebrity Theater.
“There’s no bad seat (in the house),” Papa adds. “You can sit all the way in the back, or all the way in the front, and you can see no matter where you are. We’re so fortunate to be able to have that theater to be able to call it home.”
Papa is especially excited and proud of the company’s new season, which includes a mix of traditional ballets, like “Carmen” and “Sleeping Beauty,” along with showcase events and a young choreographers series spotlighting members of the corps de ballet who are broadening their horizons by creating new works for the troupe, whose members hail from around the world.
“I’ve wanted to do this for years, trying to give young choreographers a chance to use the company members (who are) award-winning professional dancers (and) to be able to have new choreographers set works on them,” Papa said of the series that kicks off this weekend with performances Saturday night and Sunday afternoon at the Claridge.
Three of the ballet’s dancers will present their original pieces, Papa explains.
Kristaps Kikulis of Latvia, who serves as the troupe’s ballet master, has already choreographed several works for the Atlantic City Ballet and will debut a piece that focuses on nature’s four most important elements: earth, wind, fire and air.
“So that piece is going to be a little bit more contemporary in feel, more modern in feel, not like classical ballet, but more towards the modern side,” Papa says.
Brazilian dancer Aldeir Monteiro will offer a piece that’s more classical in its look and presentation, she adds.
“His ballet is filled with all kinds of tangible dualities, like light and dark, fire (and) water, mail-female, yin (and) yang, opposite forces and how they are contrary and yet how they interconnect,” she says. “I’m very interested to see how this is going to turn out.”
The third young choreographer has been with Papa and the Atlantic City Ballet since 2005. Sara Lonngren, a New Jersey native and the ballet’s oldest dancer, is choreographing “Moulin Rouge,” which is set in Paris and is based on the 2001 movie of the same name.
“It’s a storied ballet centered around the Bohemian ideas of truth, beauty, freedom and love. And she’s using the original soundtrack for this,” Papa says.
The young choreographer series will be fun because it will present three distinctly different types of choreography, the ballet director adds.
“I hope the people come out and support these three choreographers because they’re new and they’re up and coming, so you don’t know what’s going to happen to them after this,” she says, hinting that the series could be an artistic springboard that could advance the artists to the next level in their careers.
Papa is especially excited for the ballet’s new season, because it’s the first time in 32 years that the Atlantic City Ballet — which has taken its programs as far south as Georgia and as far north as Lake Placid, N.Y. — will be presenting shows virtually all year.
“This is the first time we are able to schedule a ballet almost every month of the year,” she says. “Our dates are in place so we can begin to develop an audience here in Atlantic City and the surrounding area, which we could never do before.”
The ballet has even developed an “up close and personal” program where ballet fans can visit the studio at Boardwalk Hall and watch while the corps rehearses and develops each new production.
“People come in for a nominal fee and they get to see what we’re working on. They get to talk to the choreographer to see how they decided to do the ballet they did, what’s going on behind the scenes, they get to meet the dancers, they get to talk to the dancers, they also get to talk to me as a director and ask questions,” Papa says. “Even if you go to the theater all the time, you’re never that close to the dancers. Here, you’re five feet away from them. You can almost reach out and touch them. It’s a whole different experience doing it that close. You can almost hear them breathe. It’s pretty fantastic, and everyone who’s come to see it, they’ve really enjoyed it.”

A power struggle between the chairman of the Du Page Housing Authority and its executive director will be resolved by changes that will be made in the agency`s bylaws and in the director`s job description, Chairman John Day said.
The housing authority held a two-hour closed-door session last week to address complaints by executive director Elaine Libovicz over what she has described as a ``very unpleasant`` working relationship with Day.
The two have been at odds for the past several months over the extent of their individual authority to determine the direction the housing agency would take. The agency was soundly criticized last year for what was described as its lack of commitment to solving the housing needs of the county`s poor.
While declining to be specific in discussing the results of the meeting, Day said that in January, authority Commissioner Tom Kay, who is chairman of the agency`s Personnel Committee, will propose ``modifications`` to Libovicz`s job description and some changes to the agency`s bylaws to clarify their roles.
However, he said the changes will not alter the bylaws` language that currently gives him greater authority, Day said.
``The results of the meeting, the board believes, were a win-win situation for everyone,`` Day said. ``An agreement was reached that allows the chairman to continue what he is doing and also keeps the executive director happy with modifications with her job description.``
Libovicz, who Day said attended the meeting, could not be reached for comment. But Day said Libovicz consented to the changes in her job
description. The agency`s session was not open to the public because it dealt with personnel matters, Day said.
The disagreements between Libovicz and Day peaked three months ago when Libovicz wrote a letter to housing commissioners accusing Day of unilaterally taking over some of her duties. In the letter, Libovicz also accused Day of trying to steal her job, which Day has denied.
The agency`s bylaws state that the board chairman ``shall in general supervise and control all of the activities and affairs of the authority`` and the executive director ``shall be responsible to the board for the execution of the activities and affairs of the authority.``

Huntley and Brownlee (16F) to Munster Rd. and Jock Trail (16A), 12.4 km

Holy hiking, Batman! Two maps of the Rideau Trail done in one month! It’s a record!
Getting out again on the Rideau Trail a couple of weeks ago after so long languishing fed the spark of my adventurous spirit into a flame. Lest it burn out again, I decided that we would walk the next section this weekend. I got my maps out, I started calculating distances, google mapping out possible parking spots, etc. and made a commitment that we would reach Perth – not only the halfway marker but also my hometown – by the end of the summer.
On this day, we decided to leave early in the morning, around 8 am, to tackle Map 16. The sections we are now walking are a fair distance out of the city. Today’s double vehicle drop-off took us 45 minutes from the west end of the city. Travel time to and from the start and end points could take as long or longer than the actual hike, depending on how far you decide to walk in a day. Also, just a reminder that the maps are in a descending order because the RT is mapped from Kingston (Map 1) to Ottawa (Map 19) and we are walking from Ottawa to Kingston.
It was a lovely 12C and we were dressed in layers. We started at Brownlee and Huntley (16F) and were walking along a natural trail that is also a snowmobile/ATV trail. According to the trail alert from the beginning of May, this section was not passable due to wet trail conditions. But we’d had a month of hardly any rain so we figured it would be dry now. And at the beginning, indeed it was.
We both wore long pants, long sleeves, hiking boots and lots of insect repellant. We found Woods Icaridin Repellant on clearance at Canadian Tire and found it so effective against ticks, blackflies and mosquitoes that I ended up buying ten bottles of it. Whatever you use, you will need A LOT of it for the first part of this hike. The bugs were insane and the grass is long and ticks are out. The long sleeves and pants are also to help against the poison ivy and wild parsnip that are along this trail. Bob ended up picking up a leafy branch to use as a good-old fashioned bug swatter for this entire section.
This might have been one of the wildest, most natural trails I’ve ever been on in Ottawa. It travelled between farms and was quite overgrown. I realize that this section is probably rarely used as a walking trail due to the fact that the trail on either end of this 4 km stretch of wild green is road walking.
Every once in a while, there would be an opening in the trees and we could see the farms and their fields. After 2.2 km, you’ll cross what looks like a road on a map but it’s really another ATV trail that leads to Joys Road. It is marked with a blue arrow and goes into the village of Richmond and then circles back to the main trail at Shea and Brownlee (Map 17). We stayed the course and went straight, following the orange markers.
After this, we started to see what remained of the unpassable wet parts. It was pretty muddy but passable. Because of the lack of foot traffic it wasn’t too squishy. We went up on the edges and walked on the small fallen branches or grassy parts to avoid the muck. There is one short boardwalk along the side at one point. Again, if you have to go off the trail, please be aware of ticks, poison ivy and wild parsnip. In fact, you really should watch your step the whole way because the grass is so long in parts, that you can’t see any holes or uneven ground, or small creatures like frogs. Sadly, I smushed one without seeing it at all. I just heard a squeak, a squish and a pop. Yep. Still feeling guilty. The mud also captured evidence of the other living creatures that use this trail – raccoons, coyotes, deer and bears.
Eventually the trail comes out into a clearing at the power lines with no markings visible. Keep going straight, staying parallel to the wire fence. There is a break in the bushes and a large orange triangle at the beginning of the trail again on the other side, one that looks just as wild as the one we just walked out of. In fact, this short section is even more overgrown. The grass was up to my knees, if not higher. There are raspberry bushes along the side that reach out and grab you. Later in the season, I’m sure that it would be lovely to snack on the berries during the walk.
Just before you leave the trees and come out onto Bleeks Road, there is a small bridge to cross a fairly dried up creek bed. The bridge was built by RTA volunteers and only holds one person at a time. Right after this, we stepped out onto someone’s back property.
Almost the whole of the Rideau Trail travels along or through private property and hikers are allowed to use the trail because of these landowners’ generosity. Please do not take advantage of this. Do not camp on their property, do not throw your garbage on their property, do not go into the out buildings on their property. Hikers on the Rideau Trail are guests. This permission can be revoked at any time should hikers be disrespectful.
After crossing the property, the trail follows Bleeks Road, a graded dirt road to Conley. The rest of Map 16 is road walking and truly, not that exciting. In fact, it was our least favourite section so far. We had to do it and we saw things we didn’t know existed but like any road walking, it felt like it took twice as long to walk it as it actually did.
Conley Road is a dirt road that seems to be in the middle of nowhere but it is actually a very well-travelled road. There is a motorcross track on this road that is very popular and very loud so there is fairly regular traffic of trucks with trailers from both directions. The noise is quite loud as well when you are walking past it so make sure you are walking on the shoulder of the road. It’s hard to hear any traffic coming up behind you. Or to hear the person beside you talking.
The walk down Conley Road is only 2.7 km and took us half an hour to walk but it really did feel like at least an hour. The weather has been quite dry as well lately so the road was dusty. It is the country though, so don’t be surprised if the motorists give you a small wave. I’m not from the city so it’s completely natural thing for me to wave to everybody. Bob, however, is from away and will do it since I’ve cultured him in our country ways but he is still a little amazed that people could be so friendly to strangers. Especially because Ottawa itself, is not a very friendly city.
At the end of it, there is Conley Road Golf and Driving Range, a driving range and mini-putt course that was packed with people out enjoying the cooler but sunny weather now that golf courses are open. The folks here are happy to let Rideau Trail hikers grab a drink from their vending machine, purchase some snacks and to use their facilities and picnic tables. We did not go in since there was a lot of people and we are still quite mindful of COVID protocols, even if others have given up on them. There isn’t much else around in this part of the trail and after this section is Marlborough Forest so if you are walking through, you may want to stop for a break and to restock your provisions.
We turned west on Franktown Road and for a little less than a kilometre, it’s highway walking. Franktown Road is a fairly busy highway so walking on the shoulder is a must. Thankfully, it’s nice and wide. Again, a necessary but not very fun part of this section.
We turned south on Greens Road and continued walking along the road for another 1.3 km until we hit Jock Trail. This was the last 2.2 km for the day and would bring us to the end of Map 16. We were tired. Our feet were sore. And it felt like the longest section of our hike so far. This is definitely a part of the trail that you want to make sure you have a change of shoes in the vehicle for when you get there. Your feet will thank you!
After two hours and forty-five minutes of walking, we had finished Map 16. The orange beacon of the Jeep was a happy, happy site for sore feet.
Our next adventure will take us through Marlborough Forest (Map 15) and it will be a welcome respite from the past couple of hikes of road walking.
Total km to date: 55.7km out of 387km

Purple Haze Feminised Seeds is a vigorous cannabis hybrid that expresses the best features of its parent
strains a soaring Haze high combined with the thick resin production
of the best Indicas. While not tall enough to kiss the sky, plants are
statuesque and beautiful, with long, running buds that possess pleasing
density and a sticky coating of trichomes.
Purple Haze is darker than most Sativas closer to the deep green of
Afghanis than the lime green of equatorial strains. When exposed to low temperatures near the end of flowering, leaves and calyxes can rapidly change colour from dark green to lavender or violet.
The Haze smell is subtle when plants are growing, becoming much richer
and sharper when buds are harvested and dried.
It is a quick flowering variety that was developed for outdoor growing.
Of course, this plant would also do well indoors, under lights.
|Cannabis Seed Attributes|
|Flowering-time||8 - 9 Weeks|
|Variety||Sativa - Dominant|
|Breeder/Seedbank||Green Smoke Room Seeds|
|Pack Size||1, 3, 5, 10 & 50 Seeds|

In safety, advice is always given and decisions are dispensed daily. Half of the time, we’re wrong.
Researcher Paul Nutt studied 356 decisions made at medium/large organizations. Half of the decisions failed, either by being changed within two years or a lack of implementation. Why? Nutt found in a majority of the failures, leaders had limited the alternatives down to one binary choice. Either yes or no. This way or no way.
How do EHS pros avoid this trap of the binary choice?
1. Identify more than one solution: More choices increased the success rate of decisions by 30% in Nutt’s study (e.g. use the entire hierarchy of controls to build alternatives.)
2. Keep an open mind: Remember that feeling of the first day on the job? That uncomfortable feeling is what an open mind is like…and it’ll drive better options.
3. Ask questions: Delay the auto reflex to give advice. Better questions lead to better alternatives (and greater success).

I just did my big transfer for February. (Wife gets paid on the 1st, so we transfer about half of her take-home to savings right away.) With the savings goals I started last year totaled up we topped $10,000 in savings progress this month! Not bad considering 5 years ago we were putting ramen on credit cards. We have no consumer debt at all right now (that'll change soon though when we replace the car.
It looks like we'll be able to finish the car-savings this month, leaving us 3 months to save for extra time off for my wife when the baby is born. We're shooting for $3000, which I think will cover us for at least a full month, hopefully two. Everything, budget-wise, is obviously going to change when the baby arrives as we'll be dealing with things like diapers and day care. So we'll see how long it takes us to get back on track with savings after that. It's nice to know that right now we're operating on a fairly large buffer. I'd still like to cut some spending along the way and I've got a lot of non-finance habits that need some serious attention, but this give me added motivation.

Review:The Raven Sage: Part 1 Raven by Suzy Turner
This is one of those plots that sort of creeps along and holds you there for quite a while. Once you get to about 25% of the book it nails you. This does not have one of those page turner openings with the heart-pumping heart stopping hook. But Suzy Turner proves that you don't need that to make good stories work.
When we first meet Lilly Taylor- we don't know her name. In fact for all we know it might be eat- that's what her mother seems to say just as shes addressing her in the few times we witness any exchanges between them. I think this is to help jar the reader into understanding that Lilly's home life is nothing near normal. And, just when she thought things would continue in their horribly boring way her parents disappear. For Lilly this is equally as distressing as it should be for any young girl of thirteen years and yet it's somehow less so because she has a very strange relationship with her parents.
The one thing about Lilly is that she's always had this life and knows no other and she has had few friends up until December Moon, her newest classmate, shows up. Unfortunately due to circumstances Lilly will have to move away from December and from England to live with her grandfather in Canada until her parents are found.
Though the disappearance of her father and mother has some strangeness attached to it, Lilly doesn't know strange until she reaches Canada and her extended family in British Columbia near Vancouver. Lilly goes from a life of seeming imprisonment to a wide open wonderful colorful world that seems to have a magic to it that not only touches her heart but pulls her deep into it's mystique. What she doesn't realize is that she has a special connection.
Her grandfather Gabriel tries to slowly and carefully break some of the family secrets to her. Lilly is anxious and almost demands to know and soon she'll discover the deceptions that have been perpetrated on her and her world will be turned upside down. She's also destined to -at the age of fourteen- have her first true love.
Unfortunately the family secrets and new revelations about her life will begin to interfere with that part of her new-found happiness. It seems that Lillian's true surname is Tulugaq-not Taylor-and Tulugaq means Raven. Her family carry a gene for shape-shifting into Ravens. What's more her mother-that she grew up with-is not her mother at all. But the woman Vivian is a witch who has enchanted her father somehow and stolen both of them away from the family after her sister and mother died.(All of this occurred right after her birth.)
Lilly has the potential to shape-shift into one of two creatures. A raven or a cat (of some sort-usually determined by the persons character-I think). Lilly's true mother's family are cat shifters. Lilly is about to be be thrust into a secret world of vampires, werewolf, witches, shape-shifters and more.
You'll have to read to find out what Lilly might become.
Suzy Turner does an excellent job of creating her world where there is a special council of elders who make rules to govern all of these strange creatures. It turns out that more people than just Lilly have been victims of Vivian. And Lilly must come to terms with what she is so that she can begin to help in the search for her father who was being slowly brought to the brink of death by Vivian who uses certain special types of people to help extend her life ( at their expense).
This is a great story that proves once again that your hook can actually be your great ability to tell a great story and doesn't have to include a thrill ride introduction with several paced mind numbing thrills and terrors through out. There are plenty of conflicts and things to stimulate the readers imagination throughout this and Lilly is a truly engaging character from which we are introduced to the wonders of British Columbia and the rich world building of Suzy Turner.
This is definitely a great story for Young Adults and Mature Adults. I usually read science fiction but this fantasy with a small edge into the world of horror and the magical with potential for paranormal romance is quite a draw. It reads as though Lilly is growing up as the story begins to unfold and flower to maturity. I enjoyed it so much-when the last page arrived I was a bit heartbroken.
It's a good thing there are two more books. I got this one free as you may also be able to do and I'll definitely be purchasing the others.

WASHINGTON — The European Space Agency is considering accelerating the launch of a new Earth science satellite after an existing one malfunctioned last month and remains out of service.
Sentinel-1B, a radar imaging satellite launched in April 2016, malfunctioned Dec. 23. Shortly after the anomaly, ESA said they expected to take up to two weeks to restore the satellite to service. However, in a Jan. 7, update, officials said the malfunction was caused by a “potential serious problem related to a unit of the power system” on the spacecraft.
Sentinel-1B remains out of service. In a Jan. 14 update, ESA said that efforts to reactivate the power system on the spacecraft were not successful. “All necessary investigations to identify the root cause and possibly fix the issue are on-going,” ESA stated, noting that other systems on the spacecraft were functioning, including the ability to control its orbit.
At a Jan. 18 press conference, ESA Director General Josef Aschbacher said both the main power system for the spacecraft’s antenna and a redundant unit on the spacecraft failed at the same time. “We do not know yet the root cause of it,” he said. “This is quite strange.”
He said efforts continue to try to fix the problem. However, he did not estimate how long it might take to either correct the problem or write off the satellite.
Sentinel-1B was built by Thales Alenia Space, with Airbus Defence and Space providing the C-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) instrument. It is identical to Sentinel-1A, which launched in April 2014 and remains in service beyond its original seven-year life.
Aschbacher said that SAR imagery that Sentinel-1A and -1B provide are in high demand. Sentinel-1A, for example, provided the first images of what was left of the volcano Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai after a devastating Jan. 15 eruption that sent a tsunami across the Pacific Ocean. The spacecraft’s radar instrument could see the remnants of the volcano while the area was still cloaked in clouds from the eruption.
“On the one side, it shows how essential Sentinel-1B is, or the Sentinels all together,” he said. “Users are really coming to us now and asking us to find solutions.”
One near-term solution is to buy data from other spacecraft. “We’re looking into compensating the loss of Sentinel-1B data through other data that we buy commercially, particularly from Canada,” he said. Canadian company MDA operates the Radarsat-2 satellite, while the Canadian Space Agency operates the three Radarsat Constellation Mission spacecraft. Aschbacher said another option would be to buy L-band and X-band radar imagery from other satellites.
As part of the overall Copernicus program, which is jointly run by ESA and the European Union, two new radar imaging satellites, Sentinel-1C and -1D, are in development. Sentinel-1C is scheduled to undergo a flight acceptance review in October before a launch currently scheduled for some time in 2023.
Aschbacher and other ESA officials suggested that launch could be moved up if Sentinel-1B cannot be restored. “We’re now looking into launching them as soon as we can,” he said of Sentinel-1C and -1D.
Simonetta Cheli, director of Earth observation at ESA, said that if the investigation into the Sentinel-1B malfunction doesn’t require any design changes to Sentinel-1C, ESA would be ready to launch Sentinel-1C at any time after the October flight acceptance review. “The current launch date is mid-’23 for -1C, so we would look for any opportunity for potentially launching earlier,” she said. “We don’t have an option yet.”
Daniel Neuenschwander, director of space transportation at ESA, said the launch manifest will depend on the date and outcome of the inaugural flight of the Vega-C, currently scheduled for May. “I see an opportunity at the end of ’22,” he said, with some contract modifications required to support an earlier launch.

The ACT Government should offer the Brumbies a land swap to allow the rugby club to develop 150 units away from the historic Griffith oval, an Assembly committee was told yesterday.
The Griffith-Narrabundah Community Association wants the Manuka Occasional Childcare Centre moved to the Brumbies headquarters to retain the community use of the former bowling greens near the heritage-listed oval.
But the Brumbies have dismissed the idea and will continue with a proposal to rezone its Griffith headquarters from a commercial CZ6 leisure and accommodation zone to a RZ4 medium-density residential zone. However, a variation to the Territory Plan is required for the Brumbies development to go ahead and the Assembly’s planning committee is considering the application.
Appearing before the planning committee, association president Margaret Fanning said a three-storey development was inappropriate for older Canberrans. The local resident also criticised the water-management plans submitted with the application as simplistic for not including the levels of in-flows and provisions for storms.
”The Government should consider using the land for other community purposes and rezoning the land to, say, community facilities zone, or sport and recreation, or open space or a combination of these to enable that to happen,” Ms Fanning said.
But Brumbies chief executive Andrew Fagan said he was confident of the veracity of the reports and would not consider a land swap. ”This is a proposal to vary the Territory Plan not a development application process. All the information in the planning report identified no potential issues – it’s a very comprehensive study,” he said. The ACT Heritage Council has approved development on the site as long as it does not jeopardise the landscape setting of the area. But in giving evidence to the committee, the acting chair of the council Dianne Firth said any redevelopment must not be visible through the tree line.
”A satisfactory outcome would be the maintenance of the tree line … and the proposals we have seen would not achieve that,” Dr Firth said. The associate professor of landscape design at the University of Canberra said the park setting of the oval was an important aspect of its heritage value and she considered the bowling greens an important part of that park setting. ”You drive past, you see space, you see green.”
Dr Firth said the site was not appropriate for an underground car park, a key component of an 150-unit development and raised concerns about run-off. She said the Griffin plan specifically designated open parks in flood-prone areas.
”We are dealing with blocks and sections rather than really understanding the purpose of the Territory Plan. All of these planning bodies have developed the city realising where we have issues with drainage and accessibility – it’s built into the Territory Plan, but we look at variations … which are somehow losing the objective and purpose of why we have these green spaces.”

At the organisational level, HEPS-Uganda expanded its community work to two new districts, and as a consequence, expanded its community membership. We were able to maintain our existing partners and bring onboard new ones. We have strengthened our advocacy capacity through maintaining and expanding our civil society networks. Through these networks, HEPS implemented the stop stock-outs campaign, medicine transparency advocacy , monitoring of medicine prices, and initiated the campaign to end paediatric HIV/ AIDS.
Projects implemented to monitor the implementation of public health policy were in the areas of tracking essential medicines financing, documenting the experiences of HIV-positive women with the routine testing and counselling (RTC) policy, assessing the availability and management of essential AIDS and TB medicines and diagnostics, survey of Uganda’s pharmaceutical situation, and monitoring reproductive health service delivery.
As far as influencing the formulation of health policy is concerned, HEPS undertook advocacy campaigns independently and in partnership with other CSOs to respectively influence the anti-counterfeiting bill and the HIV Prevention and Control Bill 2008. These activities saw increased media coverage of the issues of concern in the draft health laws in the mass media and generated public debate.
