Related Colorado settled a lawsuit brought by a spurned development partner that was impeding progress on the Base Village project.
Related subsidiary Snowmass Acquisition Co. and Sunrise Co. said in a press release announcing the settlement Thursday that the terms are confidential.
Related brought on Sunrise in 2014 to develop Lot 3 of Base Village, consisting of the stalled project’s most visible incomplete buildings facing Wood Road. Work stopped on the project in 2009 after Related lost its financing in the recession. Sunrise had plans to restart construction and develop a fractional-owners residence club in the buildings.
In October 2015, Related cancelled its letter of intent to sell the building sites to Sunrise, despite Sunrise’s spending $1.5 million developing its plans, according to court documents. Related then announced its intention to sell most of its Base Village holdings to East West Partners of Vail, but that deal fell through in December. Sunrise, which is also the owner of Aspen’s Dancing Bear fractional-ownership project, filed the lawsuit in February, asking a judge to enforce the letter of intent, which would have Sunrise purchase Lot 3 for $8.2 million.
“[The parties] have resolved all disputes and mutually agreed to dismiss all existing lawsuits arising from, and related to, the sale and development of Base Village, Lot 3,” says a press release from Related and Sunrise. “In taking this action, the parties affirm their mutual respect for one another and wish each other well in their future endeavors.”
David Bovino, an attorney representing Sunrise, said his client “determined that it was in the best interests of the town of Snowmass Village and Base Village to resolve the litigation at this time.”
Sunrise may still figure into Base Village’s future development plans, he said while declining to discuss specifics.
“Sunrise remains very interested in the development of Base Village and, should the opportunity arise for Sunrise to become involved in the development of Base Village, Sunrise intends to participate,” Bovino said.
After the case was filed, Related sought to suppress an official notice of the pending litigation that could hamper the master developer’s ability to sell off all or part of the project. District Court Judge Chris Seldin in May declined to suppress the notice — known as a “lis pendens” — finding a “rational basis” to support Sunrise’s unjust termination claims. Seldin also ordered Related to pay Sunrise’s legal fees incurred defending against Related’s petition for lis pendens removal.
Bovino said the “wheels are in motion” for the lawsuit notice to be removed now that the case has been settled.
Related Vice President Craig Monzio said that the lawsuit settlement clears the way for Related to move ahead with the sale of another portion of Base Village, known as Lot 2, to Aspen Skiing Co., which intends to develop a Limelight hotel on the parcel.
There is another pending lawsuit concerning the project. Snowmass Village resident and current mayor candidate Richard Goodwin filed suit in October 2014 seeking to invalidate the town council’s vote earlier that month extending the project’s vested rights. Goodwin claimed the vote was tainted by ex parte communications —taking place between an elected official and an applicant outside the public forum — involving a town council member and a SkiCo executive acting on Related’s behalf. Goodwin also believes the vested rights had already lapsed due to prior proceedings involving a bank’s foreclosure on the project.
Seldin ruled against Goodwin in July, but the plaintiff is pressing ahead with an appeal that is expected to last nine to 12 months before it is resolved.

People living with diabetes are a high-risk group within the population of the UK, with foot health being an important part of their management. Poor foot care can lead to a “cascade of negative complications”, which can result in amputation and ultimately the death of the patient (Botros et al, 2017). Offloading is one of the most important aspects of care when preventing and managing ulceration of the foot the individual living with diabetes (Bus et al, 2020). Although there are international guidelines available which clearly recommend how to provide ‘best practice’ for offloading the foot, in practice this may not be undertaken or implemented effectively.
A series of online discussion groups were organised where key healthcare professionals who manage foot complications in individuals living with diabetes could discuss and share ‘best practice’ when offloading the foot and identify the challenges that were regularly being experienced in clinical practice. The outcome of these discussions was that a range of barriers were identified (Figure 1), which were then published (Chadwick, 2021). The next stage was that key clinicians who routinely managed foot complications and were experts in offloading, discussed these issues at a further meeting sponsored by OPED UK. The aim was to take forward these challenges and by sharing skills and experience, offer solutions and make recommendations to improve effective offloading in the UK.
The Importance of clinical guidelines
Clinical excellence is dependent on having current, strong evidence on which to base practice. The International Working Group for the Diabetic Foot (IWGDF; Bus et al 2020), reviewed the evidence for offloading the foot in diabetes and published guidelines to support clinicians to deliver evidence-based practice. These are the most recent reviews and give guidance for offloading where there are different complications within the foot. However, many clinicians in the UK still use the recommendations made by NICE (2015), which only makes specific recommendations for “plantar neuropathic, non-ischaemic, uninfected forefront and mid-foot diabetic ulcers”. Table 1 compares the information in the two documents, which suggest that a review by NICE is required to include evidence to support the more complex conditions that are often present in the foot in the person with diabetes.
The recommendations for offloading included in the IWGDF guidelines can be effectively translated into local pathways for care, which can support an evidence-based service. This is demonstrated below where the IWGDF guidelines (Figure 2) have been adopted and adapted to meet the needs of the diabetic foot service in two different Trusts in England (Figure 3 and Figure 4). To do this, local podiatry services need to decide which devices are available and appropriate and to their local practice needs. The work undertaken by the Scottish Intercollegiate Group resulted in the production of the consensus document Redefining and Demystifying Offloading for Diabetes Footcare (Munro et al, 2021), which is an excellent resource to support this process. All aspects of offloading are clearly and concisely presented in this document, which provides the clinician with the information to review their current practice and make informed decisions to make changes to improve the service.
Alternatively, clinicians can share and adopt from other areas. It is an opportunity to identify and discourage the use of less effective devices and to look where services can be improved across both hospital and community settings with more effective care and better access to evidence-based practice.
The process of developing local, evidence-based care pathways can be used to identify where the service fails to meet the standard required to support evidence-based practice. Once these are in place, they can be used proactively to support service development (Figure 5).
First step: accessing effective offloading devices
Many podiatrists become frustrated because they want to deliver best practice in offloading but fail to do so because they do not have access to clinically effective equipment. As non-removable and removable knee-high devices are not available, less effective methods may be used, one of which is felt. This is still often used because it is cheap and widely available its effectiveness is limited in comparison to non-removable knee-high devices. It requires frequently replacing as any initial pressure relief rapidly decreases as it becomes worn.
A local care pathway for offloading can be used to secure funding for effective offloading systems as part of a business case, which can be submitted to commissioners. It is important that podiatrists contribute to this process so that it is supported by current evidence, to demonstrate shortfalls in care and identify the outcome of an improved service. The budget should be managed by the podiatry service, which can be used to purchase equipment which is most appropriate to the service. A formulary for offloading would facilitate this process and indicate to clinicians what systems were available. This would be beneficial in that:
- Each device listed on the formulary would have evidence to demonstrate efficacy, and be appropriate to local requirements, the skills within the department and patient need
- Effective offloading solutions should be accessible to both hospital and community. Patients should not be given less effective devices in community and must wait for a secondary care referral to have better quality care. This delay can increase ulcer severity, increase the risk of infection and make healing ultimately more difficult, increasing the risk of amputation
- Podiatrists should be able to access the most clinically effective offloading device at the first patient visit.
A pyramid diagram (Figure 6) can be used as a simple method to demonstrate which is the most clinically effective and, therefore, first choice in treatment. The traffic-light system reflects the degree of effectiveness with the better systems listed in the green area graduating to those not recommended as first in the red area. Clinicians should document the reason for the choice of device, whether this is clinical judgement, patient preference or availability.
This can be used by clinicians to support their decision to use the most effective method of offloading as first choice. It can be used with the patients to increase confidence and acceptance of why this is important. Access to larger devices, such as boots, may be limited because of storage capacity either within the clinic or pharmacies. This should not be a barrier to use, so opportunities for delivery or replacement stock need to be discussed with manufacturers. In addition, knee-high boots are now available through the Drug Tariff and can be accessed by patient prescription.
Second step: sharing best practice
Local care pathways for offloading are an excellent resource to support an education programme to ensure that all members of the podiatry team are confident and have the skills to initiate and maintain effective offloading. They can demonstrate the standard of care which is required to provide a quality service for people with diabetes with foot ulcers, and the expectations of podiatrists to deliver this. Less effective treatments, such as felt, may be used because appropriate training to use a more effective method of offloading has not been given, however, a knee-high boot which can be used as removable or unremovable can be just as quick and easy to apply, while delivering improved pressure reduction.
Other healthcare professionals are also involved in the management of the person living with diabetes and need to be aware of the importance of effective offloading and the pathways used in delivering this. Nurses are a member of the extended team who regularly undertake dressing changes between foot heath appointments. The concept of offloading is integrated into their practice as they are often experienced in managing pressure ulcers. With this knowledge they can actively participate in shared care, and while podiatry remains the lead service in managing these patients with complex foot ulcers, they can support and promote effective clinical interventions.
Care pathways and effective systems for offloading are useless unless the person with diabetes with the foot ulcer is engaged and understands the importance of this in his plan of care.
Patient adherence to treatment has been a key barrier to effective offloading. Non-removable systems are effective not only because they deliver the best pressure reduction, but they also ensure compliance. Removable devices may be more acceptable to the patient but become less effective depending on the wear time.
It may be necessary to change the culture of clinical interactions at podiatry appointments. The dialogue with the patient should always reinforce their co-operation in their care. It is recommended that clinicians:
- Be realistic with the patient with regards to the seriousness of the ulcer and inform them of what their care involves
- Stipulate to patients what they require — involve them in care and get them to set goals for what they want to achieve
- Give the patient the best solution rather than an easy option. For example, explain the best treatment is a knee-high device and not just a dressing on the wound
- Encourage self help — using educational resources including technology such as online education and devices such as apps on their phones for reminders.
Third step: professional development
The recommendations made by the IWGDF have had a major impact on the practice of offloading when managing foot complications in individuals living with diabetes. The importance of offloading and the subsequent challenge of translating evidence into practice along with the associated training and communication requirements, suggest that there is a role for an advanced practitioner within podiatry to develop this practice.
As an ‘offloading champion’, the podiatrist would work in clinical practice to train and mentor staff and manage the budget and formulary. An important aspect of this role would also be to collate clinical outcomes through audit and patient surveys, and use this information to improve service provision and support further funding applications.
The outcome of the meeting identified that while there were barriers to implementing effective offloading when managing foot ulceration in individuals living with diabetes, there were solutions to improving the service:
- Local care pathways based on the IWGDF guidelines were an important resource to underpin funding submissions, training and education and multidisciplinary care
- The use of a formulary for offloading, which extends across primary and secondary care, can facilitate patients accessing effective devices at the first point of contact with podiatry to prevent wound deterioration. Any difficulties in achieving this should be documented
- Podiatrists should be able to demonstrate that they can practice evidence-based practice when offloading the foot. This should be taught on under-graduate programmes and supported when in practice on clinical placements
- The time spent with patients should be used to encourage patients to become proactively engaged with their care by getting them to understand the severity of their condition and the importance of effective offloading in managing this.
The barriers to effective offloading the foot in individuals living with diabetes were also explored by Lazzarini and Jarl in 2021 and were very similar to those identified by Chadwick (2021). They suggested that the clinicians were reluctant to prescribe knee-high devices because they still hold historical beliefs that the TCC is the only ‘gold standard’ treatment for offloading. As a result, the limitations of skill, cost, time and patient contra-indications associated with using this device prevent the evidence-based practice being used. Their solution was to educate clinicians with the evidence to show that alternative knee-high devices were as effective as the TCC, and required the “same or less knowledge, expertise, time and costs to apply than nearly all other offloading treatments”.
Lazzarini and Jarl (2021) also considered the problem of patient adherence to wearing offloading devices and made the following recommendations:
- A removable knee-high device worn for all weightbearing activities can achieve the same results as non-removable systems. However, some patients misconceive that the wearing of device for weightbearing is only required when outside the home, or for hygiene reasons remove their device with their footwear when inside. Therefore, the importance of total adherence for all weight-bearing activities both inside and outside the home should be explained and documented
- Patients can report feeling unstable or at risk of falling. Using a contralateral shoe and possibly walking aids can reduce this
- Educating patients that the ulcer is a severe condition and that adhering to offloading will improve the chance of healing. Explaining that the peripheral neuropathy prevents them from feeling the wound
- Stipulate to patients that it is important to engage in their care, using patient-centred education and motivational interviewing. Using simple techniques, such as maps and photographs to showing them how the wound is healing when offloading is adhered to.
While these recommendations can be implemented at local level, the incidence and impact of foot ulceration in the person living with diabetes is a major concern to the NHS. It has already been suggested that a review by NICE is needed, but other measures should be considered to raise the profile at a national level. One of which would be to align with the ‘Stop the Pressure’ campaign or to host a similar campaign.
Pressure ulcers became a Key Quality Indicator in 1993, when the cost and impact of chronic wounds on the NHS was recognised. Pressure ulcers were considered an indicator of quality of care, and a number of initiatives were launched to reduce the development and severity of these wounds. The ‘Stop the Pressure’ programme which was launched in 2011 as a regional initiative to eliminate all avoidable category II, III and IV pressure ulcers resulted in a significant reduction in prevalence (Fletcher et al, 2021).
This programme has developed into an international event with an annual ‘Stop the Pressure’ day. While clinicians can access, share and promote educational initiatives to raise awareness, it is also an opportunity to engage with the public and policymakers and keep pressure ulcer prevention a high-profile issue.
Effective offloading is not an option when managing foot complications in individuals living with diabetes, but essential to achieve the optimum clinical outcomes. This involves adopting the recommendations made by the IWGDF and translating these into practice to provide equity in service across both primary and secondary care. While it is recognised that there are challenges in doing this, the development of a local care pathways can be used to initiate and support key actions which are necessary to support practice development in this area.
Podiatry is the lead profession in managing these patients and, therefore, have a professional responsibility to ensure that both clinical expertise and effective offloading can be delivered to meet the standard required for evidence -based practice. This means having a proactive approach to recognising the barriers which prevent this and taking steps to challenge them.

Yes, a healthy salad can be tasty. A little imagination can go a long way in sprucing up the not so favorite, but immensely nutritious Cabbage. Fresh cabbage adds a unique crunch to salads while adding fiber and a bunch of essential nutrients like vitamin K,C and A along with plenty of manganese, vitamin B6 and manganese. This recipe us inspired by my grandfather's original contribution to the family dinner table.
To make this salad, you will need:
1/2 a cabbage: finely shredded
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup raisins
1 apple: chopped into bite size pieces
1/2 cup of peanut powder: roasted peanuts ground to a powder using a standard food processor
Salt, pepper and jaggery to taste: you can use golden brown sugar as a fantastic substitute for jaggery
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice: you can add more than this if you like your salad tangy.
In a large mixing bowl combine the cabbage, cranberries and raisins.
Then, add the diced apple, salt, pepper, lemon juice and jaggery. Mix thoroughly.
Finally, add the peanut powder, mix, and let the salad sit to marinate in the lemon juice for about 30 minutes before serving.

To counter the over-reliance of historic preservation research and practice on objective, expert values by understanding how people subjectively value and are attached to the age and design of traditionally-designed urban residential neighborhoods.
How does the age of traditionally designed, urban residential environments affect the degree and character of place attachment for residents?
1) historic Charleston, south of Broad Street, 2) I'On new urbanist development in Mt. Pleasant, South Carolina.
Unit of analysis:
Residents of 1) historic Charleston and 2) I'On.
Sequential mixed-method: phenomenology (interviews) followed by a survey methodology (on-line survey instrument); both employ photo elicitation techniques.
Measures of general attachment, dependence, identity, and rootedness. (Place attachment is dependent on an individual's aesthetic attitudes about the environment.)
Perceptions and valuation of place; behaviors elicited by environmental factors.
Historic Charleston and I'On residents perceive their neighborhoods as being layered and having a sense of discovery and mystery. Age value is only associated with patina and spontaneous fantasy in historic Charleston; both of these variables correlate with increased levels of general attachment or dependence. Residents of both neighborhoods exhibit very high levels of general attachment, dependence, and identity. Rootedness is higher in Charleston. Place attachment is correlated with many more environmental variables in historic Charleston than it is in I'On.
A low response rate may indicate there is self-selection bias in the sample; the survey demographics, however, are mostly congruent with census data and lend support to the claim of generalizability of the results.
The results of this study can be broadly applied to any discipline in which the holistic valuation of the built and natural environments is important. The mixed-methodological framework provides a way to explain quantitative findings through previously gathered qualitative meanings to increase overall validity and reliability. For historic preservation, it is important to protect masonry patina because of its association with place attachment. Both historic preservation and urban design can benefit from increasing the amount of 'unseen effort' in interventions made to the built environment. The assessment of what makes certain places significant should focus on sociocultural and phenomenological values as well as objective/expert values.

Pleased to announce Elad Rosen's first solo exhibition at Rosenfeld gallery. Rosen, recipient of the Ministry of Culture and Sport’s Young Artist prize of 2015, will show recent paintings that rely on a playful, childlike aesthetic. The paintings are inspired by the video games of the 80's, a virtual space that was as real and intense as any other tangible landscape of Rosen's childhood.
The different works present a repetitive imagery that deals in slapstick, dark humor and an excess of emotion. Limbs, faces, fruit and geometric shapes form together popy, expressive and misleading compositions, where the sweet, joyful appearance turns into a grotesque and terrifying one. A face that seems at first glance to be naïve becomes a disturbing Pinocchio, in an emotional exaggeration that is hard to take seriously and yet is impossible to resist.
Elad Rosen (born in 1980) lives and works in Tel Aviv, is part of Artport's residency program in Tel Aviv (2015 -2016), a graduate of the Bezalel MFA program (2013) and receiver of the Osnat Moses young artist painting Prize for the year 2010.

In a recent post I described the concept of the Overhead Valve Engine (OHV) that was a development of the original Side Valve Engine from pre World War 1. This week is the turn of the Overhead Cam Engine (OHC), again an improvement on the OHV engine.
Like much of the automobile technology, OHC’s are not new, they were originally developed nearly 100 years ago by people like Ferdinand Porsche and W.O. Bentley and even in those days they were developed for multi valve engines. So they were being used in sports and high performance vehicles whilst the OHV was becoming the standard for normal run of the mill cars.
The concept, like the OHV, is quite simple. It took the OHV design of having the valves in the head and added in the camshaft as well, thus removing the need for the pushrod – which had added complexity to the tuning of the engine and another point of failure.
Putting the camshaft up the top meant that the cam could open and shut the valve itself without the need for the extra rods and tappets. It makes the cylinder head bigger, but provides the opportunity to increase power and torque by making the engine run faster – the OHC can spin much faster than an OHV. In racing terms this is as much as 90% faster – OHVs can spin to about 10,000 revs but an OHC can get over 19,000 revs.
On a typical single OHC, the camshaft contains two cams, one for the inlet and one for the outlet whilst the dual OHC can have one camshaft for inlet and one shaft for outlet – this is especially important on a 4 valve per cylinder engine. The other notable point is that the Overhead Valve Engine had a small timing chain connecting the crankshaft to the cam shaft to ensure the valves opened at the right time, on an OHC engine a larger timing belt is using to transfer the rotation of the crankshaft to the cam shafts.
Then you have the variable valve timing or VTEC engines that use single or dual camshafts with a mix of cam lobe shapes on each shaft to improve performance at higher engine speeds. I described the VTEC concept a few weeks ago.
The use of the overhead cam enables better management of the fuel/air mix and exhaust gases which actually provides more power due to the mix of cam lobe shapes. I read an article recently that showed the same power from a 3.5 litre Nissan DOHC engine as a 6 litre Dodge OHV engine!
As you can imagine, the racing folk quickly cottoned on to the benefits of the OHC engine and since the 1930s these have been common on the track. In fact all of the main engine builders like Ferrari, Cosworth, Ilmor and Repco have used this design.
The DFV engine which also spawned the DFY for Indycar and sports car racing was hugely successful and was refined over at least a 20 year period.
With modern engines constantly being refined for improvements in fuel economy, using new materials and new fuels, the OHC is becoming the standard type of engine for many cars built all around the world. The Japanese and European manufacturers certainly prefer this format.
I’ll be writing further posts on other types of engines and the differing “cycles” they use over the coming months. It’s a fascinating topic showing the evolution of thinking and design.

NBA playoff predictions, values
Embiid is already out for game one but if he returns sooner than later in this series I think the 76ers will close the early the sooner Embiid gets back the better. Wade while he is old, and decline but playing Wade in the postseason could be potentially be dangerous for the 76ers especially if they are playing without Embiid portion of this series.
West Rockets 1 vs T-Wolves 8 Predict: Rockets in 6 Thunder 4 vs Jazz 5 Predict: Thunder in 6 Blazers 3 vs Pelicans 6 Predict: Pelicans in 7 Warriors 2 vs Spurs 7 Predict: Wolves are going to struggle defend the three point line they don't have to many good defenders at, and going to struggle keeping up the Rockets pace. But I do think which I predict they win a couple games for this series.
The interesting match up is Jimmy Butler vs James Harden that is going to be a great matchup. I think the X-Factor for the Rockets in this series is their bench mainly Eric Gordon, and Ryan Anderson if they get hot the entire series, or majority of the series this series could be over quickly.
Trevor Ariza who is a solid defender is going to give Wiggins fit and Wiggins isn't a good one on one player so he needs to find ways to help on the offensive end. I am torn between the Blazers vs Pelicans series because I think this series could go either way, The Pelicans got mainly well Anthony Davis to bad Cousins is out they could use him while the Pelicans running their offense through their bigs mainly AD, and somewhat Nikola.
While the Blazers running their offense with their guards CJ and of course Lillard. This series could be a potential fun, and great series. Even though it's difficult to win a game in Portland but I did predict the Pelicans to win the series in 7 like to see Anthony Davis advance to the next round.
Which series you are interest the most? What is your prediction? Sept 16, Sept 29, When doing my work bracket I only had a hard time with the Conference Finals. Sept 17, 6: Sept 26, 3: Sept 17, 3: Sept 26, 4: Philly is my pick to make it out the East. Houston will find a way to choke, so I will go with Golden State beating Philly in 7. Sept 15, Sept 25, Wooh boy those Cavs crapped the bed in game one. Indiana had a great gameplan. Start off big, then slow it down, and play tough D the rest of the way.
Sept 27, 0: Haven't watched the Rockets at all this year but been loosely following them in the standings, looking forward to getting back into basketball and following along with their playoff run, hoping to see a Houston sports trifecta with the Astros, Rockets, and Texans all winning championships. Pretty good game 1 there, Harden really shined there in the second half, when he's on he's about as impressive of a basketball player I've ever seen.
Timberwolves almost made a game out of it. Is that the same Derrick Rose that was tearing it up with the Bulls a while back? Sept 17, 2: Apr 16, 3: Dwayne Wade is a legend. Best of 5 with the return of Embiid. Pavers were an Oladipo three away from tying this game with 30 seconds to go after being down 15 after a quarter. In some sad news, the wife of Greg Popovich has passed away. Heartbreaking and I feel so terrible for him.
Watching the 76ers vs Heargsme back and forth game fun and close game almost end of third. So how about those Pacers? Bogan was on fire in the second half now Pacers lead the series Huge sweep on the road for Philly. However, the way AD is playing, this could be his championship coming out year.
The Pelicans are the first team to advance into the second round with a dominating sweep of the 3 seeded Trailblazers. Anthony Davis went off for 47 and got help by Jrue Holiday who went off for Up next Golden State?
Nice win from the Wolves finally KAT and Wiggins finally step up offensively which was the difference in the game including Rose was a huge spark of the bench. Apr 22, 2: Sept 9, Sept 27, Damn AD is just straight up beast! I did not know how good Holiday was and he made Lillard look like a bitch. I would much rather get a good ol futures match up with Simmons, Embiid and The Greak Freak going at it.
Yes, Boston has some exciting young pieces such as Tatum, Rozier and Jaylen but the Greak Freak is good enough to get his team to the second round of the playoffs. So my advancing predictions beforehand were: This is a fun payoffs so far. A lot of star power with the future meeting the past.

Recently, Clinton Elementary teachers Tracy McCabe (grade 4) and Kimberly Vlahoff (grade 3) saw a project they started come to life in the form of a 4th and 5th grade talent show at Clinton.
The teachers provided guidance, but the resulting talent show was the result of the students putting together their own routines and costumes, and putting on a show full of singing, dancing, playing instruments, and telling jokes on stage in front of hundreds of people!
The students performed a morning and afternoon show at the school, as well as an evening performance for parents. The twice per week practices the teachers held for the students from January until the show in April paid off. The show was a success! Sometimes it’s hard to coax a child out of their shell, but once they’ve felt adulation on the stage, they never go back!
Kudos to Ms. Vlahoff and Ms. McCabe for showing our children the ropes.

Labour supporters in the BBC Question Time audience slammed their own party, saying they are a “disgrace”.
Labour are currently 21 points behind the Conservative Party in the polls and are set to lose heartland seats in the forthcoming general election.
One member of the audience slammed Len McCluskie’s claim that Corbyn isn’t ruled by his ego, and said: “Essentially the Labour party has turned into a cult of personality and it’s an absolute disgrace.
“It’s all very well standing by policies such as wanting to support our NHS but if you’re never going to get elected, it’s completely pointless.
“I’m a paid-up Labour party member and it’s an absolute disgrace to see the state of Labour at the moment.”
Another Labour supporter said: “The Labour Party is a total disgrace – it’s not doing the job it’s being paid for, nor is Jeremy Corbyn.”
Another woman even asked whether it was “time that David Miliband came back”, which would mark a shocking turn of events for the party.
Theresa May’s decision to call a snap general election which will take place on the 8th June came with perfect timing.
Many view Jeremy Corbyn as unelectable.
However, Mrs May has been on record saying the Conservative campaign will not be “complacent”.
Theresa May could take 58 Brexit-backing Labour seats.
Many Labour seats in the north of England have very small majorities compared to the Brexit vote where leave had a significant lead.
Jeremy Corbyn’s hopes of clinging onto these swing seats are dependent on his leadership and positive Brexit policies, which are pretty much non-existent.
Could this be the end of Corbyn and a significant opposition?

January 19, 2024
As national politics have become increasingly polarized and Congress gridlocked, state legislatures have addressed policies that were formerly decided at the federal level — making news organizations that cover state-wide issues more essential than ever.
A new generation of startup news organizations has stepped up to fill this need. The number of nonprofit news reporters who cover state capitols has nearly quadrupled since 2014, accounting for 20% of the nation’s total statehouse press corps and forming the second-largest contingent of all statehouse reporters, after those who work for traditional newspapers, according to a 2022 Pew Research Center study.
To help statewide publishers better understand trends in audience growth, revenue generation, and staffing needs, the Institute for Nonprofit News (INN) and the Statewide News Collective collaborated to curate benchmarking data that offers insights into the common challenges and opportunities news organizations covering state issues face.
Using findings from the 2023 INN Index, members of the Statewide News Collective were able to analyze anonymized data from 54 statewide publishers who participated in the INN Index study. The tool included metrics such as staff size, breakdowns of revenues and expenses, and insights into audience acquisition and retention.
The INN Index is the most comprehensive annual study of the state of nonprofit news, surveying 400+ independent newsrooms that belong to the INN Network. The 2023 Index study includes data from calendar year 2022; INN is currently collecting 2023 data for the 2024 Index survey.
The Statewide News Collective, organized by The Lenfest Institute for Journalism, addresses the unique challenges facing news organizations that serve an entire state. There are currently 30 publishers representing 25 states in the Collective. The Collective is open to both nonprofit and for-profit outlets, although most members operate as nonprofits and are members of INN.
“Making INN’s Index data more actionable for INN member outlets, and the wider journalism industry, is one of our top goals — so this partnership with the Statewide News Collective was the perfect fit,” said INN’s Research Director Emily Roseman.
Key findings from this initial exploration of the data include:
INN and the Statewide News Collective hope to expand on the benchmarks in 2024 to share more detailed recommendations.
“The Collective offers a peer network of statewide publishers who share openly about the challenges and opportunities they face in serving statewide communities,” said Lenfest Institute National Program Director Allie Vanyur. “Partnering with INN’s knowledgeable research team provided an opportunity to analyze data within a trusted community of peers and dive into the nuances and stories behind the numbers. This pilot has formed a solid foundation on which to build continued partnership between INN and The Lenfest Institute to better serve the industry at-large.”
The full dataset is only available to Statewide News Collective Members. Publications interested in joining the Collective can fill out an interest form or email firstname.lastname@example.org with any questions. INN member outlets interested in more benchmarking data can see INN’s Pods program. A fact sheet looking at the broader set of INN members serving states or regions is available here.
The Statewide News Collective was founded in 2022 by The Lenfest Institute with RevLab at The Texas Tribune and Spotlight PA — both members of the INN Network.Back to top

Serbian Baked Beans (Prebranac)
This Serbian baked bean dish (aka prebranac, pronounced pre-BRAH-nats) would have to be one of my dad’s favourite recipes.
He has been kind enough to share it with me, so I can give you an amazing simple bean dish that certainly doesn’t lack in flavour!
With two whole heads of garlic, that alone will make any dish pretty amazing. I have also created little hacks along the way to be able to speed up the process that can be tedious and time-consuming.
This dish can feed up to six people and uses only six staple pantry ingredients. It’s a humble but flavourful dish!

Can I use dried lima beans?
Yes, this is how it’s traditionally made. I have personally opted for canned beans because it speeds up the process and you can have the baked beans ready in half the time—no need for soaking and cooking.
However, if you do choose to use them, soak 3 cups of dried beans in water overnight (or for at least 8 hrs, up to 24 hrs). Give them a good rinse and add to a large pot. Add water using 3:1 ratio to beans with a pinch of salt and a bay leaf.
Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer for about an hour to an hour and a half. Make sure not to overcook them. When they are soft but hold their shape, they’re done.
Drain and rinse them, and now they’re ready to use in the recipe below.
What kind of beans can be used in this Serbian bean dish?
I’ve only ever tried it with lima beans (aka butter beans).
However, you can use any type of white bean. Cannellini beans, Great Northern Beans, and navy beans (aka haricot, or Boston beans) are also a popular choice.
If you’re looking for a hearty bean recipe that you can eat in the colder months with that thick chunky slice of bread, this dish is perfect for that!
Are you cooking for 1-2 people? Perfect! This dish gets better with age. Just warm it up (or have it cold) and enjoy it.
This baked beans recipe is:
- Rich in flavour
- Packed full of fibre and protein
Some tips to speed up the process of this vegan baked bean dish
- Using two whole heads of garlic can make for a dull and sticky job. Does anyone else find that garlic skins stick to their fingers? I learned a little hack recently. Put the whole garlic cloves (removed from the head first so that they’re just the individual cloves) in some boiling water and leave for 10 minutes. Remove from the water, and the skins just slide off! This makes the process so much quicker.
- Use a little food processor to mince the garlic. Since there is so much garlic, you’ll be able to fit them in a food processor and blitz away! This will save you time not mincing each clove separately.
- If you don’t have a food processor, rather than dicing the onions, you can opt to slice them into strips to speed up the process and give the dish an added element of texture with stringy onions once cooked down and baked.
- If you find yourself starting to cry a river while slicing the onions, leave it and go off and prep other parts of the dish. Like washing the canned beans, or prepping the garlic.
- If you’re really time poor and don’t mind a different result with the baked beans, pop your peeled onions into a food processor and pulse a few times to get a nice diced consistency. Then fry off as instructed. This is the method that I use in the recipe instructions.
- And since we’re talking about speeding up the process, use canned beans over dry.
- If using dry beans and you have a pressure cooker, this will speed up the process immensely!
Don’t be frightened by the large amounts of garlic in this prebranac recipe. It truly works and gives it a nice, deep flavour.

Serbian Baked Beans (Prebranac)
- Prep Time: 40 minutes
- Cook Time: 1 hour 10 minutes
- Total Time: 1 hour 50 minutes
- Yield: Serves 4-6
Serbian baked beans (prebranac) is a traditional dish that can be made with or without meat, ours being the latter. It’s full of flavour using simple ingredients.
- 5 large / around 800g brown onions, diced*
- ⅓ cup olive oil
- 4 cans (400g / 14.10 ounces each) lima beans, drained and washed* (aka butter beans)
- 2 whole heads (around 80g / 2.82 ounces) of garlic, minced*
- 1 tablespoon smoked paprika*
- 1 tablespoon sweet paprika*
- 1½ teaspoons salt (or to taste)
- ¼ – ½ teaspoon pepper
- 1 bay leaf (optional)
- Bread of choice
- Sauerkraut salad – sauerkraut, olive oil and pepper
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celcius (390 degrees Fahrenheit).
- Add the onions to a saucepan on high heat with the lid closed. Saute the onions until they become translucent, leaving the lid on between each stir. This will take about 10 minutes.
- Add in the olive oil and put the lid back on. Saute until the onions begin to brown, then remove from heat.
- Once the onions are done, add in the rest of the ingredients (besides the bay leaf). Give it a good stir.
- Add the bean mixture to a ceramic baking dish, and flatten it out with the back of a spatula.
- Once finished, pour boiled water (around 1½ cups / 330ml) to cover the beans completely. Making sure you are adding just enough to cover them.
- Place the bay leaf in the middle of the dish.
- Put the dish carefully in the oven and bake for around 60 minutes or until it starts to brown a little on the top.
- At this point, change the oven setting to grill and grill the top for 10-15 minutes. Keep an eye on it so that it doesn’t burn.
- Remove from the oven and let sit for 10-15 minutes before serving.
Onions: You can speed up the process and save yourself some tears by pulsing them in a food processor.
Beans: This would bearound 1 kilo cooked beans. See notes above for cooking instructions if beans are dried.
Garlic: See tips above to speed up garlic peeling.
Sweet paprika: If you have Hungarian style sweet paprika powder, use 2 tablespoons instead of the sweet and smoked paprika.

Brilliant thanks v.m.
You’re welcome! 🙂
Zdravo! I’m so happy you exist and lost these amazing recipes. I can’t wait to try a number of these. Going vegan and missing out on gibanica has been hard but thanks to you I have options. Thank you, thank you, and hvala more after that!!
Hehe so glad that I’ve managed to bring some familiar and missed meals back to you! There will be more to come 😉
That looks great Maša. I don’t think I realised that butter beans are lima beans. I’m always on the look out for a good baked beans recipe, so must try this one. I have lots of home grown garlic I need to use too. Just noticed you have the video up for your Serbian cheese pie so when I buy the tinned butter beans I will get some filo pastry too for the pie.
I’m sure you’ll love it! Let me know what you think of both of them 🙂

The location for this on private land sandwiched between bluffs on two sides provides for amazing scenery. Bob took for me a tour in his “Dunn Buggy” of some of the property. We crossed a tiny stream of water by driving through it and then up rather steep terrain to see his tiny two-story cabin which is headquarters near the area he deer hunts in the fall. On the way back he spotted a black squirrel and a rabbit ran right in front of the buggy.
To start with I watched others throw the tomahawks and took pictures but it wasn’t long and I had a heavy hatchet in my hand to practice throwing. How the tomahawk rotates in flight and almost always connects with the blade area into the log face seems like magic to me. On some of my throws the blade would get sideways when it smacked into the log. With just a few practice throws I was entered in the contest of getting as close to a playing card stapled to the face of a log. There are two logs next to each other, one person throws on left side and the other person throws on the right. The winner is the one that has the tomahawk closest to the center of the card. I was lucky in first round and won against someone that is really good at throwing. Continuing in the contest my lack of skill was obvious but I was doing well enough that I wasn’t discouraged.
I had a great time and will have to return again.

I note that new Labour parliamentary candidate, in his statement to to Labour members, refers to the state of QE2 as 'a scar of Tory Treachery'.
Everyone who lived in Welwyn Hatfield in 2006-7 will remember how it was the Labour government which turned its back on its pre-election promise of a new hospital at Hatfield and told us we had to put up with QE2, except that, as a final insult, it would be downgraded.
All major parties had worked together for a new hospital. Just one party stabbed us in the back.
I suggest an apology is due.

Disney’s Zootopia has added a slew of big-name stars to its cast, including Idris Elba, Jenny Slate, J.K. Simmons, Alan Tudyk and Octavia Spencer.
The new actors join Once Upon a Time‘s’ Ginnifer Goodwin, who’s playing first bunny officer Judy Hopps, and Jason Bateman, a.k.a. con-artist fox Nick Wilde.
Zootopia, or Zootropolis in the U.K., is putting together what is beginning to look like the most star-specked voice cast to date.
Idris Elba has been cast as Chief Bogo, head of the Zootopia Police Department. “A tough cape buffalo with 2,000 lbs of attitude, Bogo is reluctant to add Judy Hopps, Zootopia’s first bunny cop, to his squad of hardened rhinos, elephants and hippos,” the Disney press release reads.
J.K. Simmons is Mayor Leodore Lionheart, “the noble leader of Zootopia, who coined the city’s mantra that Judy Hopps lives by: In Zootopia, anyone can be anything.”
Octavia Spencer voices Mrs Otterton, a “desperate otter” who turns to Judy Hopps for help. Jenny Slate is Assistant Mayor Bellwether, Alan Tudyk is Duke Weaselton, and John DiMaggio is Jerry Jumbeaux Jr.
Also starring are voice actor veterans Nate Torrence, Tommy Chong, Bonnie Hunt, Don Lake, Tommy “Tiny” Lister, Raymond Persi, Katie Lowes, and Jesse Corti.
Director Rich Moore says in the press release, “Everyone in this incredible cast is bringing something special, something unexpected to their characters, which really takes our story to a whole new level.”
Zootopia, the city which the movie is named after, is described as, “A modern mammal metropolis like no other. Comprised of habitat neighborhoods like ritzy Sahara Square and frigid Tundratown, it’s a melting pot where animals from every environment live together—a place where no matter what you are, from the biggest elephant to the smallest shrew, you can be anything.”
Our story follows rookie Officer Judy Hopps, who, “discovers that being the first bunny on a police force of big, tough animals isn’t so easy. Determined to prove herself, she jumps at the opportunity to crack a case, even if it means partnering with a fast-talking, scam-artist fox, Nick Wilde, to solve the mystery.”

Investigation of isozyme spectrum of lactate dehydrogenase and malate dehydrogenase in surgical patients with lung affections
Kharakter, Z.Z.; Mazhak, K.D.
Problemy Tuberkuleza 2: 36-39
ISSN/ISBN: 0032-9533 Accession: 005747307
The isozyme spectra of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and malate dehydrogenase (MDH) were studied in 44 surgical patients with destructive tuberculosis and cancer of the lungs. A reliable decrease in the level of LDH1-2 as compared to that in 45 healthy persons, an increase in the level of LDH4-5 and the presence of a pathological mitochondrial fraction of MDH4 were observed in the patients before surgical operations. Within the 1st day after the operation there was a distinctive redistribution of the isozyme activity: an increase in the levels of LDH1 and a decrease in those of LDH3-5. In the patients with cancer of the lungs, the level of the cytoplasmic fraction of MDH1 markedly decreased and the level of the mitochondrial fractions of MDH3 and MDH4 increased. By the 5th day the relative activity of several isozymes of LDH and MDH reached the initial levels (those before the operations) and by the 10th day the majority of the indices gradually returned to normal.

First Round Results | Boggs' Photos
Inclement weather and rainy conditions kept the Commodores from finishing their first round on Friday, but it did not keep Vanderbilt from holding the first-day lead at eight-under par at the NCAA Championship at Rich Harvest Farm Golf Club, two shots ahead of second-place Auburn, who completed their first round in the morning wave.
Weather was delayed for over three hours Friday afternoon at Rich Harvest Farms due to lightning and very heavy rains, but the Commodores still ended their day with 19 birdies as a team. Junior Theo Humphrey and sophomore Will Gordon led the way with five apiece, with senior Matthias Schwab and sophomore Patrick Martin each adding four birdies in their rounds.
Schwab led the Commodores with a bogey-free, four-under total through 15 holes. Humphrey is two-under par through 15 holes, while Martin and Gordon are one-under in their rounds, with Martin through 15 and Gordon through 16, respectively. Freshman John Augenstein completed his round on Friday with a three-over par, 75. Schwab is tied for third on the individual leader board, with Humphrey in a tie for 13th and Martin and Gordon in a tie for 24th.
Vanderbilt will complete their round at 6:30 a.m. CT on Saturday morning, and then begin their second round at 7:15 a.m. off of the number one tee.

This didn't happen at the Super Bowl! Mild-mannered Chris Martin looks on in horror as Coldplay's table is trashed by rival singer at raucous NME Awards
Coldplay frontman Chris Martin was left stunned after his table was trashed at the NME awards by a singer who jumped on it during a performance.
Oli Sykes, from Bring Me The Horizon, suddenly leapt on Coldplay's table during Wednesday night's awards ceremony while performing Happy Song.
The heavily-tattooed singer made his way past Chris, inside the 02 Academy Brixton, before the stunt.
Scroll down for video
Rocking out: Bring Me The Horizon frontman Oli Sykes surprised Coldplay at the NME Awards, at Brixton Academy, on Wednesday night by climbing onto the band's table while performing Happy Song
Oli knocked bottles of bubbly out of the way as he belted out the heavy track, before the table appeared to partially collapse beneath him.
But the Coldplay singer appeared to relish the impromptu moment, describing it as 'very rock 'n' roll'.
Fresh from performing the prestigious halftime slot at the Super Bowl, Coldplay were honoured with the 2016 Godlike Genius Award. The band was also recently announced as the first of this year's Glastonbury headliners.
Oli denied that the stunt was a 'dirty protest' over previous claims he made that Coldplay's album artwork for A Head Full of Dreams copied BMTH's Sempiternal record.
He told BANG Showbiz: 'We were aiming for Yoko Ono! No, not really. Did it look intentional? It wasn't. He said he wanted to hear us so I brought it as close as possible. My sound just wasn't right that's why I went onto Chris Martin's table... it wasn't a dirty protest.'

No offence taken: The Coldplay frontman appeared to relish the impromptu moment, describing it as 'very rock 'n' roll'
Making NMEs? Chris seemed slightly addled at first by the intrusion
Meanwhile, the Sheffield rockers - who picked up the Innovation Award on the night - admitted they were determined to make an unforgettable 'impression' with their debut NME Awards performance.
Oli said: 'You know when you know nobody is going to care about your band if you just do what you usually do. It was one of those things when you are like you are going to have to make an impression somehow.'
And on picking up the Innovation prize, he added: 'It's cool for us because we usually just get Kerrang! Awards, which is also good but obviously people like us in that scene.'

Both bands' albums incorporate 'the flower of life' into their designs -- a symbol synonymous with most of the world's major religions.
And speaking to NME about Coldplay's decision to use the artwork, Oli said: 'They might not have known at first, but obviously if you google flower of life the first thing that comes up is Bring Me The Horizon – Sempiternal.
'It's like, if you Google the images, someone's gonna have said something to them, so whether it was intentional or not, it is the same.
No hard feelings: The rocker denied that the stunt was a 'dirty protest' over previous claims he made that Coldplay's album artwork for A Head Full of Dreams copied BMTH's Sempiternal record
Centre stage: Oli roared the lyrics to the band's infectious Happy Song
'It's not ours, it's kind of cool really, it's a cool thing that a band that big are also gonna be sharing that with people.'
BMTH are enjoying the most successful period of their career to date following the release of fifth album That's the Spirit in September last year.
The band is set to perform tonight at Electric in Brixton as part of War Child's Passport to Brits week. The initiative sees some of the UK's biggest artists perform intimate gigs around London in a bid to raise money for the charity.

Meanwhile, Chris recently opened up about his shock split from Gwyneth Paltrow, and why they famously made their break-up one of the most amicable in history, even shunning the term divorce in favour of 'consciously uncoupling',
Explaining their decision, he said: 'If you have kids and they start reading about their parents not liking each other, that's not good.'
He added: 'We just spent a long time trying to maintain a friendship so there wouldn't have to be any kind of battle.'
The couple announced their split in 2014 and divorced in 2015, putting an end to their 12-year marriage that saw them have two children together, 11-year-old daughter Apple and nine-year-old son Moses.
Consciously uncoupled: Chris recently opened up about his shock split from Gwyneth Paltrow back in 2014, and why they famously made their break-up one of the most amicable in history
The Adventure Of A Lifetime hitmaker added that he avoided reading stories in the media about the split as he didn't want to be involved with any of the scandal.
'Of course, village gossip, we all like to know what everyone's up to... But once you start being in it you realise, well, this isn't really based on any truth,' he said.
'Especially if you go through a big break-up, there's no point reading about it. There's just no good gonna come from it.'
The pair remained quiet about their split during the divorce proceedings and have continued to see each other on a social basis with their children.

FL Studio to arrive on Mac next year
FL Studio, developed by Belgian company Image-Line, is coming to Mac OS next year. In an interview with Attack Magazine, the developers of the popular music production software divulged details on the struggles of bringing the program to Macintosh’s operating system. The updated version will arrive in the form of FL Studio 12 and will let music producers have a native version of the software instead of working around the problem with a Windows partition.
For producers still using Microsoft’s version of the program, Image-Line commented that, “the team working on the conversion to OS X is completely separate from the Windows development team. They talk, but don’t share any bodies that we know of, so it’s business as usual on the Microsoft side of things.”

Online retailer CafePress under fire for anti-Mexican merchandise
One of the world’s largest online stores scrutinized for promoting “Anti-Mexican” merchandise. (Screenshot, Tex(t)Mex)
CafePress, a retailer that allows independent merchants and designers to sell their products online, has taken down sections of its website that promoted “Anti-Mexican” merchandise after coming under fire from Latino bloggers.
The online store pulled down 10 pages with explicit anti-Mexican products — T-shirts, bumper stickers, hoodies, mugs, etc — after news outlets picked up posts by the blogs Tex(t)Mex and Latino Rebels, according to msnbc.com.
It’s not the first time CafePress has been criticized for offering what would normally be considered offensive or racist products, and it likely won’t be the last. Even though anti-Mexican pages were pulled down, anti-Mexican products are still available on the site. That’s in addition to merchandise labeled “Anti-Arab,” “Anti-French,” “Anti-African,” and so on. The site also seems to have pulled down a section called “F**k Illegals”.
CafePress explained in statement that it does not review seller submitted merchandise:
The range of user-designed products varies widely in topic, taste and political opinion. CafePress’ independent design community spans the globe, with users representing multicultural and multinational ideals and sentiments. As such, users may upload designs that some find distasteful or offensive, but are nevertheless consistent with our policies for expressions and content on our website.
They also encourage users to report inappropriate products at firstname.lastname@example.org.

Anaheim, Calif. -- New research numbers seemed to verify operators’ contentions that bundled services decrease churn.
According to data compiled by Kagan World Media and presented at the Western Show here, churn among digital customers now averages 5% per month. That’s a low for the three years Kagan has been tracking the count.
Among other products, monthly churn for telephony is 3.2%. Churn stands at about 2.6% monthly for either stand-alone basic cable or high-speed data.
Of those who churn, about 1.3 % per month are attributable to movers, according to the research. The percentage of people who cancel service out of "true product rejection" is actually very small, according to a Western Show presentation Thursday by Robin Flynn, senior vice president of Kagan Media Appraisals.
Data from Cox Communications Inc. -- the most aggressive supporter of "the bundle" -- demonstrated that offering’s "stickiness." Flynn said churn is as low as 1.3% per month with Cox’s multiproduct bundle, including telephone service.
During a general session Wednesday, Adelphia Communications Corp. chairman and CEO Bill Schleyer said video-customer churn is about 2% per month. Customers who buy video and data churn out at about 1.6% per month. And customers who buy those two products plus telephony churn out at only about 1.2% per month.
Operators are constantly looking for ways to retain customers because replacing them can be an expensive proposition. According to Kagan research, the cost of replacing each customer now runs at least $92. A breakdown showed that this figure includes $12 in back-office costs, $15 for marketing and $65 for truck rolls to new-install addresses.

From environmental science to biology, The College of Idaho presented a wide range of student research on Nov. 9-10 at the 26th Annual Murdock College Science Research Conference in Spokane, Washington, with one student coming away with an award for her summer research at the event.
Among the 133 students from Idaho and Washington performing at the National Association of Teachers of Singing’s regional competition on Nov. 10-11 were four music students from The College of Idaho, each of whom represented the music program with both high notes and high scores.
Neither Jake Bowman nor Tyler Truksa originally had much interest in geoscience. However, after a full summer as research assistants under C of I geoscience professor Jaime Goode, the two juniors found themselves presenting their original research at the Geological Society of America’s 129th Annual Meeting in Seattle, Washington between Oct. 22-25 — one of the largest meetings of geoscientists in the country.
The College of Idaho’s International Student Organization will make the Jewett Auditorium the site of a multicultural celebration with its annual ISO Cultural Show, which will take place at 8 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 9.
The year is 2010. In the windowless breakroom of a Hobby Lobby in Boise, Idaho, a 17-year-old high school student is forced to confront some serious existential crises following the sudden arrival of his estranged father, who himself is fleeing from personal demons following scandals at his Evangelical church in Northern Idaho. And these two aren’t the only ones with issues to confront as they try to deliver top notch customer service at minimum wage for their banal big box retailer.
At The College of Idaho, references to the YoteFam are everywhere, from regular hashtags on social media to posters and banners emblazoned with the name. Now, the YoteFam won’t be the only “fam” making the campus a better place, as a new student organization called Oxfam is here to bring greater attention to the issue of global poverty.
Halloween may be spooky and frightful, but the Associated Students of the College of Idaho want to make it sweet and friendly for the Caldwell community by hosting their first ever “Trunk or Treat” event, which is set between 3-6 p.m. on Oct. 28 in the McCain parking lot.

eMarketer: In 2017 Nearly 60% of the US Population Will Use Digital Banking
In 2017, nearly 60% of the US population will be digital banking users, according to eMarketer’s new forecast. Some 150.7 million adults will access their bank, credit card, or brokerage accounts at least once a month via digital channels.
Not surprisingly, older users are less likely to be digital bankers. Among those ages 55 to 64, eMarketer estimates that 52.4% will use digital banking next year. For those over 65, the percentage falls sharply: Barely one in three will do banking online next year. Those trends are even more evident when looking at mobile banking behaviors. A mere 7.5% of the over-65 population will be mobile bankers in 2017.
“Older users are still somewhat less likely to have a smartphone, and they also don’t feel as comfortable with the devices yet, especially when it comes to applications like banking where they want a high degree of security,” said eMarketer analyst Nicole Perrin. “Older banking customers are also more likely to have more complex needs, they use a wider variety of banking products and tend to prefer to deal with their accounts on desktop computers.”
By contrast, those between 18 and 44 have adopted digital banking in higher numbers, especially when it comes to mobile banking. Millennials in particular are the heaviest mobile phone banking users.
”For now, mobile banking isn’t driving increases in digital banking, and growth is tepid among younger internet users, most of whom already conduct their banking via digital channels,” said Perrin. "In the long term, mobile and digital banking are likely to become more synonymous."

In a Welsh Government press release the Minister said: "The link between library usage and literacy levels is well documented - over 42,000 children in Wales took part in last year’s Summer Reading Challenge which ran in 245 libraries across the country.
"Those children that took part maintained or improved their reading levels and we are hoping to build on this by giving every child the opportunity to use their library to borrow books and access all the other services available to them.”
Initially, this opt out scheme is being trialled by the Gwent, Flintshire, Gwynedd, Merthyr Tydfil, Powys and Swansea authorities but is planes for rollout across the country in the near future.
I was delighted to be asked to take part in the launch of the Every Child A Member initiative by visiting local libraries and meeting year four children from local schools, many bussed in from outlying areas. All the children received their new library cards and were then let loose to choose books to take home and read - as well as receiving a goody bag. As well as being able to talk about my own books it was great being able to read from and suggest books by other authors that they might like to read - John Dougherty's Stinkbomb and Ketch-up Face went down a treat.
Although many children were already members and keen users of the libraries they visited, there were many more that weren't. Some had never been to the library before. Will parents keep coming back to the library with their children? This has yet to be seen, but I can't help feeling that this is a late, but welcome start to getting children into the libraries. Without creating this link between children and libraries what hope is there for the future.

What is psoriasis
Psoriasis is a common skin condition affecting 2-3% of the population of the United Kingdom and Ireland. Typically, it appears as raised red patches of skin covered with silvery scales, although different types and psoriasis on different areas of the body can look different. Psoriasis is very simply a speeding up of the usual replacement processes of the skin. This process is the same wherever psoriasis occurs on the body.
Psoriasis in sensitive areas
Psoriasis can affect all parts of the body but there are some areas where the skin is thinner and may be more sensitive to treatment. These areas include the flexures – in skin folds, armpits, under the breast, between the buttocks and the groin and genital area – as well as the face and the hairline. Psoriasis in sensitive areas may also be referred to as:
- Genital psoriasis
- Flexural psoriasis
- Inverse psoriasis
How does psoriasis differ in sensitive areas?
Psoriasis in flexural areas often does not have the typical ‘plaques’ or scaliness seen in other areas and usually appears as very bright red (or dark on darker skin tones), shiny patches. It is welldemarcated (easy to tell where the psoriasis ends and normal skin begins). Because psoriasis in these areas looks quite different to its typical dry and scaly appearance, it can often be mistaken for a fungal infection or other skin condition. Psoriasis in sensitive areas may be very uncomfortable and painful, and may make people feel embarrassed about or avoid intimate situations. Psoriasis in sensitive but non-flexural areas (such as the face) may look similar to psoriasis on other parts of the body.
What triggers psoriasis in sensitive areas?
As with other types of psoriasis, it is not easy to pinpoint what triggers psoriasis in sensitive areas. Sometimes it happens spontaneously, or for no real reason at all. However, psoriasis in the armpits, other flexures and groin area may sometimes get worse as a result of external factors. These may include tight clothing rubbing the skin, deodorants or antiperspirants, sanitary towels or tampons, harsh toilet paper, thrush and sexual intercourse.
