It's purely coincidence, but worth noting nonetheless: The same day the Portland Police Bureau (PPB) took the very rare step of proactively releasing police reports surrounding a controversial arrest yesterday, the city agreed to pay out $90,000 to a victim of police abuse from the last time the PPB took such an approach (or at least one of the last times).
In a short hearing Wednesday, Portland City Council agreed to settle the case of Thai Gurule, who two years ago, at the age of 16, was beaten and tasered by a trio of Portland cops. The case got a lot of attention—not just for the drama of a teen being punched, kneed, and tasered on camera, but because a Multnomah County Judge later excoriated the officers involved.
To refresh: In September 2014, in response to footage of Gurule's arrest circulating on Facebook, the PPB released materials surrounding the incident—even before any news outlets had reported on it. As the Mercury wrote at the time:
It's the kind of thing that usually happens in deadly force cases, and usually only after several days of inquiries and reporting. In this case, the bureau issued the information before anyone even posted stories about what happened. (Normally, even in smaller cases, the bureau will decline to release reports weeks and months later, citing ongoing investigations.)
911 calls the cops released showed police had received reports of a group of eight or nine teens potentially fighting near Cathedral Park, and redacted police reports offered reasoning for Garule's arrest (essentially: cops had seen the Roosevelt High School football player walking with his brother and a friend in the vicinity, and took them for suspects).
One of those reports, by Officer Betsy Hornstein, claimed Gurule had twice wrapped his arm around her neck and punched her in the course of resisting arrest. "I was now in fear that [REDACTED] was trying to strangle me, and if successful, he could place himself at a great advantage to cause me harm..." she wrote in her report.
The only problem with that account: Videos shot by bystanders showed that wasn't the case, which a judge noted in a scathing verdict.
"Hornstein was not credible in several important instances," Circuit Judge Diane Stuart said, while acquitting Garule of criminal charges.
Here's one video of the arrest.
Garule, through attorney Stephen Houze, later filed a tort claim for $5 million, citing injury and psychological duress. City Council agreed to settle for $90,000 in a perfunctory hearing Wednesday, finding that "there is a risk the City may be found liable."
Gurule will get roughly $58,000 of the money. Houze gets the rest.
As I say, it's odd that the settlement should come the very same day cops once again took the extraordinary step of voluntarily issuing police reports (which the bureau is typically very strict about charging the public for). In that case, as in Gurule's, the bureau was responding to bystander footage—this time showing Portland organizer Kathryn Stevens being arrested during a November 21 demonstration.
Mayor Charlie Hales has since asked the city's Independent Police Review to look into the arrest, and the ACLU of Oregon has accused the city of potentially violating demonstrators first amendment rights.

It is a season of postponement for big films like RRR and Radhe Shyam. The two mega-budgeted films were supposed to release on 7th January and 14th January respectively, but due to increase in COVID-19 cases, these pan-India films have been postponed indefinitely.
After the postponement, recently Chaitanya Akkineni shared on Twitter that Tollywood’s most awaited father-son film Bangarraju will release on the occasion of Sankranti. Chaitanya shared a tweet with the release date poster of the movie, according to which the movie will release on 14th January.
In the poster, father-son fashioned the traditional ‘Pancha’ outfit. Chaitanya and Nagarjuna were riding the Royal Enfield ‘Bullet’ bike while wearing cool shades. Nagarjuna is keeping his one hand on son’s shoulder while resting the traditional stick on the shoulder. The duo looks absolutely dashing in the poster.
The movie is directed by Kalyan Krishna and has Ramya Krishnan, Rao Ramesh, Brahmaji and Vennela Kishore in the important roles. It is produced by Akkineni Nagarjuna under his home banner Annapurna Studios in association with the Zee Studios banner.
In the movie, Nagarjuna will once again land on the Earth with his magical powers and meet his wife Ramya Krishnan. Here Naga Chaitanya will be introduced as the clan of Bangarraju and he will be seen owning all the romantic and funny characteristics of Nagarjuna.

ForexNewsNow.com (New York) – European stock markets have opened up, convinced that the US Federal Reserve and Ben Bernanke will intervene soon. According to the Federal Open Market Committee minutes from the meeting on August 9th, released yesterday, Fed officials are discussing new monetary stimuluses to boost growth in the United States.
The Paris Stock Exchange and its European counterparts have opened up today with investors showing more and more enthusiasm about the will of the U.S. central bank to act in order to restore growth. In Paris, the CAC 40 gained 0.8% in early trading, while in London, the FTSE rose by 0.3% and the Dax in Frankfurt gained 0.7%. On Wall Street, the Dow Jones gained 0.18% and the Nasdaq was up 0.55%. Wall Street indices finished up for the sixth time in the last seven sessions.
Stock indices spiked after the publication of the FOMC minutes although the dollar lost ground via the Euro immediately following the release. The minutes show that Fed officials discussed ways to do more to support the US economy in order to avoid a double-dip recession. Fed officials discussed several concrete ideas including additional purchases of financial securities on markets and lowering the interest rate for banks to borrow money.
Inna Mufteeva, an economist at Natixis, found the likelihood of further monetary easing “quite high”, despite the existence of “clear differences of opinion within the monetary policy committee.”

|Revolve by Kenneth Torrance|
Barter Collective based out of Vancouver works with artists, helping tell their stories, learning their processes and methodologies. The result is a collection of objects that is thoughtful, unique and has a story to tell.
As Barter Collective tells us:
"(Above) Revolve by Kenneth Torrance. Kenneth Torrance is a multi-disciplinary designer living in Vancouver, BC. His process is rooted in a strong connection to the origin of the materials he uses: the connection between the clay and the mountains they came from; the journey from a tree, to a log, to a table. Formally trained as a graphic designer, Kenneth approaches objects and space as compositions designed to complete one another and, above all, believes that love for the craft, and respect for the materials, should guide his every design decision. Revolve is an homage to west coast timber. It celebrates the form of these coastal giants and indulges in the raw beauty of BC red cedar. Paired with concrete for stability, and terracotta as a vessel for growing, Revolve invites us to acquaint ourselves with these materials and contemplate their relationship to one another. Revolve can be stacked and configured in a variety of ways, allowing one to experiment and personalize. From 8 inch vessel to 50 foot stacks, this modular series is all about play.
(Below) Vessel by Kenneth Torrance. Once valued as a precious, vital material used for carrying water, cooking and ceremony, terracotta is now most often found on the back shelves of hardware stores and garden centres. The Vessel series is a resurrection of terracotta: a reintroduction to a material that hasn’t changed in thousands of years. The Vessel series is meant to be cherished but, it is also meant to be used.
|Vessel by Kenneth Torrance.|
|Vessel by Kenneth Torrance.|
(Above) Connect by Imu Chan. Imu Chan is a designer and founder of FSOARK, a Vancouver design studio known for its inventive and unexpected spaces, installations and architectural undertakings. Chan’s designs challenge our ideas about space, weight, and origin—and our own physical relationship to the pieces he creates. He unearths the inherent qualities of the materials he works with and presents them back to us with such simple and intuitive design that it is as if we are seeing these materials for the first time; surprised by their natural beauty. Rather than an object for display, a table, in its simplest form, displays the rituals in our lives. The Connect Table is an exploration in connection. At its heart is a considered wooden ring, allowing Connect’s components to radiate from a strong core. Its intentionally small, circular form brings us together without hierarchy, encouraging us to connect closely with one another.
(Above) Gather by Art Paul. Art has witnessed British Columbia transform and evolve over many years and continues to do so. As a 7th generation Canadian, he is deeply connected to this landscape and its people, valued as an important member to every community he has lived in. Working in Forestry for much of his life, Art has an understanding of our native trees that is unparalleled. His appreciation for local resources and intuitive approach is evident in every piece he creates, and we are so fortunate for his collaboration and mentorship. Each Gather block is unique. Whether you see them as stools, tables, plinths or pieces of art, the Gather blocks are a story told through our environment, design, history and peoples."

"The art in the gallery may evoke an emotional effect. It has made visitors cry with tears of sadness, and laugh out loud with joy"
From a Last Gallery on the Right press release...
The extraordinary artists of Last Gallery On The Right explore the meaning of Black and White and !?! with woodcuts, fresco, sculpture in steel, bronze, and ceramic as well as paintings, charcoal and pen and ink cartoons for this show.
Artist and gallerist Linda Storm proposed an exhibition to 10 artist with no expectations except to meet the deadline. On April 14, 2013, she and you can see the results. Storm has such absolute trust in the artists who share space in her gallery that she is fine with the fact that she will not see the art until the day before the show. An artist herself, she has great respect for the creative process. "I have seen people touched so deeply by the art in my gallery, that they were moved to tears, and hearty laughter. Art is a language that speaks to our souls, I live to encourage that."
Her gallery is aptly named Last Gallery on the Right. It is located on famous historic Canyon Road of Santa Fe, New Mexico. Storm is looking forward to surprises on April 14th. “It will feel like a holiday!” The walls, floors, and courtyard of the historic building that houses the gallery will be filled with a language understood by the deepest part of us, and the artists will be present to share stories about their creations.
WARNING: The art in the gallery may evoke an emotional effect. It has made visitors cry with tears of sadness, and laugh out loud with joy.
A recent testimonial from a client who purchased two paintings at Last Gallery On The Right...
“We loved your event. It made our trip so special, and we thank you for your hospitality. All the artists were so wonderful. The music was great too. We are planning a trip the last week of May and first week of June and will spend about 10 days exploring New Mexico. Of course, we will come to see you! It was truly a life-changing experience. Enjoy the wonderful life you have created. The happiness was palpable." -Jen
Last Gallery on the Right is a historic adobe home. An artist is always present, and may be painting. Contemporary, abstract, representational and surreal art hangs salon style on the walls, and the floors hold standing steel sculptures.

For me, healthcare isn’t just a policy position, it is a passion, one that has driven me to make it my profession. Expensive premiums and ridiculous co-pays are obstacles I have to navigate as a private citizen, but compared to what I encounter at work, sometimes my own problems with medical care pale in comparison to the often- overlooked pain my patients must endure even after their procedures.
As a psychiatric emergency screener, I see firsthand how struggles with mental health and addiction have deeply affected local families. Access to affordable services that address these issues should not bankrupt families or cause them to delay accessing life-or-death services and support. The realities of life can be unpredictable, and families should be protected by common sense practices. The stories of my first job in psychiatric health play a role in the everyday business of my second job — Atlantic County Freeholder.
Prioritizing the wellness of our people in our district can help us build South Jersey into the healthiest place to live and raise a family. Accessibility and affordability of health care are necessary for community well-being. I will fight to protect the lives and health of all people in our district.
Above every title and occupation, I am a woman. My lived experience as the daughter to a mother with ailments insurance companies would call “Pre-existing conditions” are my mandate to fight for the protection of women’s health care and those that need healthcare most. For me, it’s simple: quality healthcare is a human rights issue. So many of our families, like mine, skip or delay medical care or prescription medications because of the financial burden. We can do more to improve health outcomes in our district by increasing access to preventive care and timely services.
Pharmaceutical companies continue to get richer on the backs of sick individuals and regular families, taking advantage of us with out-of-control costs. New Jersey’s rich history of science and technology can allow us to lead the way toward better health and quality of life for all Americans.
For me, the struggle to earn a living isn’t just an economic position, it’s my experience. I’ve known what it is like to have to take payday loans during those times where emergencies don’t quite coincide with a bi-weekly paycheck. I have watched minutes turn to hours stuck on “Hold”, forced to listen to the elevator-music soundtrack of my mission to negotiate down overdraft fees with the bank when an unexpected bill has hit your account. I am not poor, because being poor means you’ve given up. I am struggling financially, but I still have my pride.
Every hard-working American deserves the sense of dignity that comes with earning a fair wage. I will work with all levels of government to fight for working families, like my own, who often live paycheck to paycheck, without the security and confidence that fair wages bring. We all dream for our families to do more than survive. I will work to strengthen the communities within our current industries while also looking ahead to promising additions to our jobs landscape.
We have room to grow and innovate in the areas of technology, clean industry, and tourism. Our infrastructure of roads and bridges should be improved by local workers, keeping economic investments at home instead of with outside corporations that take the money and leave. I will advocate for federal funding to expand our Aviation Park and bring real infrastructure and industry dollars back to our western counties. We can shift power back to the people by funding technical job training, listening to the needs of families and our local economy, and working with NJ transportation agencies to upgrade and improve our transportation hubs so that all people in our district can access the better jobs we create.
Small businesses, labor unions, and working people like teachers, municipal workers and service professionals are a solid foundation of our district. Jobs should be physically safe for workers, and a healthy retirement should be guaranteed. I will fight to make sure our workers get a fair deal and that South Jersey becomes stronger and better than ever.
It is not our environment, it is the environment. We are reminded of this distinction every day, as our ocean levels continue to rise, storms become stronger every year, with natural disasters almost becoming the new normal.
The earth and its climate will not simply “cooperate” with our needs and wants. We are only temporary guests here, and what is becoming more and more apparent, is that the earth perhaps not-so-subtlely encouraging us to change our ways — before it’s too late.
Climate change has been accelerated due to human activity, the science is clear. We have no choice but to address these challenges, not just for our own livelihood, but for the next generation, and the one after.
Our homes and livelihoods are vulnerable to climate change, and we must have the courage to take action on behalf of our collective future. I will fight to ensure our people are protected from pollution and the risks associated with catastrophic climate change. I support protecting the ocean, waterways, and open spaces in order to preserve our valuable farms, fishing ports, and boating industry. It is vital to ensure seafood and water quality while also looking to decrease harmful emissions. I will not ignore polluters that jeopardize our economy or the beauty of our natural wildlife lands.
I support collaborating across industries to design bold, proactive strategies to prepare for future extreme weather events. Seven years after Hurricane Sandy, we continue to deal with the effects, and we can take what we have learned to design nature-based solutions that fit our local circumstances. I will advocate for FEMA to plan proactively to issue immediate emergency relief in the event of a hurricane or other disaster. We can create jobs while engaging in sustainable land-planning to prepare for sea level rise as well as extreme weather. Prices continue to drop on sophisticated green technology, which will allow us to choose cost-effective solutions that add value and peace-of-mind to our communities.
We can build on the growth of wind and solar industries in New Jersey to add good jobs that will develop more resilient, efficient energy and a modern power grid. I will explore the development of our ecotourism industry that can bring more business to our district while opposing offshore drilling but supporting clean energy innovations.
Our natural wildlife should be considered in our policy considerations. Local to South Jersey there are 75 species on New Jersey’s endangered or threatened wildlife list, including our Pine Barrens treefrog and the piping plover found along our shorelines. If we act soon to design responsible policies and solutions, we can prevent the destruction of our lands and wildlife and create a sustainable future for the next generations.
Community safety is a top priority, and I believe our police departments can collaborate with residents to find shared solutions to neighborhood issues. Increasing the use of community policing strategies can enhance relationships and build partnerships between police and residents. I also support proactive police training on preventing crime and safely de-escalating conflict in our communities.
The failed war on drugs left many people incarcerated for nonviolent crimes, rather than providing treatment and second chances. Mass incarceration breaks families and communities apart. I will fight for fair pretrial practices and against for-profit prisons, which capitalize on misfortune and promote recidivism.
We all bear the burden when formerly incarcerated people cannot access good jobs in order to restore their independence. I support a fair chance at employment. I will also work to eliminate the school-to-prison pipeline. Students who are suspended are much more likely to be incarcerated in the future. Using suspension as a consequence for nonviolent behavior is commonplace in our schools, and we need to provide educators with the tools they need to run safe and equitable school communities in order to avoid punishments that result in long-term harm for the students.
I am who I am because I am a product of the South Jersey public school system. Public schools have the potential to be the best of who we are as a nation. When I get to Congress, I pledge to protect and improve our schools so that every child can receive an equitable education and enriching opportunities for a strong future.
I believe in offering two additional years of public education, with every student receiving the opportunity to leave school with an associates degree or the skills and credentials to work as a tradesperson. But we cannot forget the first, arguably most important years, of a student’s life. In addition to advocating for two years of Community College for all students, I will advocate with leaders at the state and local levels for the creation of universal pre-K, ensuring that our youngest learners get a great start to their education. We can enhance public school offerings such as work-study, internships, and hands-on technical training that lead our kids to job-focused higher education and good-paying jobs rather than years of crushing debt.
Because I believe so strongly in the role public schools play in our communities, I oppose the use of vouchers to pay for private education. Education Secretary Betsy DeVos should be replaced by an educator who understands what our public schools need for 21st century growth and will advocate for fair school funding. Our schools should receive the capital improvements they need to ensure the highest standards for air, environment and water quality for their learners and the infrastructure enhancements to become high-tech centers of learning. I believe equitable school funding will pay off in our future economy and quality of life.
College graduates should be afforded additional ways to refinance their loans, and Pell Grants should increase to alleviate the cost burden for families in the first place. I will advocate for lowered interest rates and incentive programs to reduce student debt in high-need professions. Student loan reform can help young adults contribute to our economy as professionals, rather than have every dollar earmarked for loan payments.
I support teachers and the value they add to our communities. Teaching should be portrayed as a rewarding and prestigious profession to our children, in order to increase interest and diversity in our teacher pipeline. Educators can be respected by ensuring fair pay and a voice in decision-making regarding what happens in their schools.
Community schools can empower families to have a say in how their children are educated, building public confidence and a collective movement toward outstanding schools. I will widen our focus on children to span pre-K to life, resulting in adults with secure, well-paying jobs that can help raise a family and design a satisfying life. Every child deserves the chance to achieve the American dream.

To commemorate the birth anniversary of Dr BR Ambedkar, Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao unveiled the 125ft tall statue of the architect of the Indian Constitution. Located on the banks of Hyderabad’s Hussain Sagar Lake, near the State Secretariat, the newly inaugurated statue is touted to be the tallest Dr Ambedkar statue in India. Know more on SURFACES REPORTER (SR).
Standing tall at 175ft including a 50-ft-high circular base resembling the edifice of the Parliament of India, the statue weighs 474 tonne. The statue has been built using 360 tonne of stainless steel and 114 tonne of bronze. Build at a whopping cost of Rs 146.50 crore, the statue is set to be another landmark for the state.

Report from ICRA Foresees Around 10% Growth for Auto-Components Industry this Year
Published On Mar 30, 2016
Credit ratings agency ICRA recently published a survey on the auto industry, in which it estimated that the auto component industry would grow at 8-10 percent in the next fiscal year.
“Over the medium term, ICRA expects OPBDIT margin for the auto-component industry to stabilise at 14-14.5 percent level, given expected bottoming out of commodity prices in the current year,” commented Subrata Ray, Senior Group Vice President, Corporate ratings. He added, “In FY2017, the rural demand (impacting motorcycles, tractors and passenger vehicle segments) will be contingent on monsoon, though government efforts in the Union Budget of FY 2017 could benefit the rural economy.”
With the ABS system now made mandatory, the auto-component market is expected to further surge upward. At present, less than one third of the vehicles in the market have been incorporated with ABS. As a result, with the new mandatory implementation coming into effect, the components industry could draw additional business in thousands of crores in the coming years. Along with this, new regulations regarding crash tests would also drive the industry up.
The recent ban on diesel vehicles in the Delhi region, along with heightened taxes is expected to impact the passenger vehicle segment. This would influence auto-component sales to a certain extent in the domestic market. ICRA estimates that growth in the auto-component would expected to surpass the auto industry's growth, a result of rising exports and a higher content of components needed per vehicle.
The company also foresaw that demand in the M&HCV demand would continue to stay relatively strong, but decline slightly to 13-15 percent.

Tony Avella has some explaining to do.
An open letter to all civic organizations regarding Senator Tony Avella from the Welcome to Whitestone Civic:
An Open Letter To Our Fellow Neighborhood Civic Organizations
Wednesday, May 16th, 2012
I know it is certainly no secret that civic service is my passion. A passion that I am honored to share with so many of my wonderful neighbors and friends.
Since our civic group’s formation, over two years ago, I’ve shared in the pleasure of working in volunteerism with our neighbors, fellow civic leaders, elected colleagues in government and numerous city agencies. In this time, we have been able to accomplish so much — from the replacement of our namesake, the “Welcome To Whitestone” sign at the corner of Francis Lewis Boulevard and the Cross Island Parkway, to graffiti clean-ups and our numerous community events and fundraisers for vital community service organizations such as Whitestone Volunteer Ambulance and St. Mary’s Healthcare System for Children.
Welcome To Whitestone’s regular community meetings provide an open environment for everyone. This is why I was particularly shocked to learn that our State Senator Tony Avella will be a holding a Town Hall meeting on Thursday, May 17th, 2012, without our organization. Needless to say, this is just a silly political jab by Senator Avella but we will not stand to be stepped on. Our membership knows how truly valuable civic service is, and after sharing this, I’ve been inundated with calls and letters, calling on Welcome To Whitestone to stand up to Tony Avella, once and for all!
To Senator Avella, I remind you of the old Chinese proverb, “Those who say it cannot be done, should not interrupt the person doing it”. A deliberate attempt to undermine our service, by excluding our membership from your Town Hall is petty!
Now, we need to band together as a united community, to tell Senator Avella he was not elected to persecute his community. I call on all of you to boycott a Town Hall that would exclude any part of this community. Let’s send a clear message to Senator Avella: it’s time to put an end to this behavior!
Devon O’Connor, President
The Welcome To Whitestone Commercial and Residential Civic Association

Korea isn’t known as a likely destination for Spanish footballers, with many of the K-League’s foreign signings being from Brazil or The Balkans instead. The main exception to that has been former Racing Santander defender Osmar Barba who joined FC Seoul in 2014 after a spell in Thailand with Buriram United. However, ‘Osmar’, as he
In early July, Lee Seung-Woo was promoted to Barcelona’s B-side, along with his compatriot Paik Seung-Ho. Dubbed ‘The Korean Messi’, Lee has the footballing hopes of an entire nation on his shoulders, as they hope that he can grow up to be the world-class creative talent that Korea has so far struggled to produce. Lee’s
Throughout the spring there have been rumours about Son Heung-Min moving to Anfield, and there are plenty of European clubs keeping a close eye on Son this summer.

South Korea’s answer to Peter Crouch, the 1.96m tall Ulsan forward is likely to be heading to Europe sooner rather than later. Apparently he turned down a chance to move to Spartak Moscow in the winter, and he is on the radar of several English clubs including Leicester City. The national team forward has hit
Seongnam FC’s twenty-two year old striker Hwang Ui-Jo is having an impressive start to the season. His midweek goal to win the match against Yeongnam University in the FA Cup was his eleventh goal this season in all competitions (he also scored the only goal of Seongnam’s victory in the previous round over Busan Transportation).
In the 2014 World Cup, goalkeeping was one of the Korean National Team’s weakest spots, with Suwon Bluewings’ ‘keeper Jung Sung-Ryong being criticised by many fans of Korean football for his frequent errors. Jung managed to maintain his first team spot despite a poor season in the K-League, but his performance against Algeria, where he
One of the most exciting foreign players in the K-League this season is the Croatian attacking midfielder Mislav Oršić. The twenty-two year-old is currently playing for Jeonnam Dragons, having been loaned to them from Croatian side HNK Rijeka. He has impressed in his twelve games for Jeonnam, and has scored twice so far this season.
Jeonbuk Motors’ exciting winger Han Kyo-Won is currently midway through an eight match suspension. On May 23rd, just five minutes into Jeonbuk’s K-League match against Incheon United, Han Kyo-Won punched Incheon’s Park Dae-Han twice, his second punch connecting with the Incheon Player’s head in what appeared to be an unprovoked attack. Han has since apologized
Like his midfield counterpart Son Joon-Ho, Kim Seung-Dae is another Youngnam University alumni who was picked up by local club Pohang Steelers.

FC Seoul’s 23 year-old winger seems like he has been around for ages, having broken into the Gyeongnam FC team back in 2011.

Hosted by Book Chick City.
Well see I received Waking Nightmares by Christopher Golden for review assuming it was something new but silly me strikes again, it’s the 5th in a fairly old series. So I suppose, though they’re £7 each and I’m not sure I can afford that, but I would quite like the few that come before it! I loved his Buffy tie-in books as a kid so I have high hopes for his original fiction.
Shadow Saga #1-4 by Christopher Golden
Blurb for book one, Of Saints and Shadows:
SAINTS (n.) Highly virtuous people, dedicated to holy pursuits. Like Father Mulkerrin, a man devoted to the total elimination of a hidden race of beings…
SHADOWS (n.) Creatures of the night, who defy the mortal laws of life and death. Like Peter Octavian, a vampire on an epic crusade to save his people from mass destruction…
The war between the humans and vampires has begun—a worldwide battle that will separate the true saints from the sinners.
Of Saints and Shadows is a brilliantly original saga that takes you into the secret world of vampires—and a secret society sworn to destroy them. Sweeping, sensuous and shocking, it is a powerfull vision of immortality that will hold you in its spell…forever.
And my love of chick lit has been rekindled this week after my reading of Miracle on Regent Street and I hear this one is a pretty good read.
One Minute to Midnight by Amy Silver
For many years, beginning when she was thirteen, Nicole Blake spent every new year with her three friends: Julian, her first love, Alex, her best friend, and Aidan, her obsession. Together the four had partied hard, suppported each other, and fallen in love. But then tragedy and betrayal tore the friends apart, and Nicole settled down to married life with Dom in London. But in the week running up to New Year’s Eve 2011, Nicole and Dom are preparing for a trip to New York to meet up with Aidan and Alex for the first time in years. But with so much left unsaid and unresolved between them all, can they really return to their old friendship? And if they do, Nicole isn’t sure she’ll ever want to come home again.

Two books that feature boys who explore the roles of men in overlapping cultures have won the Europe and South Asia section of the Commonwealth writers' prize.
Naeem Murr beat the Booker shortlisted authors David Mitchell and MJ Hyland to win the best book award with The Perfect Man, his tale of a 12-year-old Anglo-Indian boy who is abandoned to the care of relatives in London and then his father's mistress in a small American town. Murr himself is no stranger to shifting cultures - of Lebanese and Irish parentage, he was born in London and lives in the US.
The first book award was won by Hisham Matar with In the Country of Men, which had also been shortlisted for the Booker prize. It is set in Tripoli in the 1970s and describes how a nine-year-old boy, Suleiman, desperately attempts to protect his family after his father disappears, unaware of the consequences of his actions for his loved ones.
Hisham Matar was born in New York and spent his childhood in Tripoli and Cairo before moving back to Britain, where he studied architecture at Goldsmith's College. In 1990, his father - a Libyan dissident living in Cairo - was kidnapped, taken back to Tripoli, imprisoned and tortured; there has been no word from him since 1995.
In Matar's novel, Suleiman's father, who is involved in an insurrectionary movement against Colonel Gaddafi, does eventually return home, having been beaten and disfigured by Gaddafi's regime.
"It is no accident that both titles, In the Country of Men and The Perfect Man, refer ironically to patriarchal ideals," said Angela Smith, the chair of judges. "Both novels are set in the recent past and question the models of what it means to be masculine that are offered to boys in different and sometimes overlapping cultures."
She also commented on the way in which stories from different cultures are weaved together in the winning novels.
"A characteristic of this year's books was their fascination with intersecting stories, when Bollywood meets Enid Blyton or Scheherazade clashes with famous football triumphs. Cultures meet and sensibilities shift," said Smith.
Murr and Matar, along with the winners from Africa, the Caribbean and Canada, and South East Asia and South Pacific, now enter the final stage of the prize. This will be decided by a pan-Commonwealth panel in Jamaica and announced at the Calabash Literary Festival on May 27. A prize of £10,000 will go to the author of overall best book, and £5,000 to the author of the best first book.
This is the 21st year of the prize, which aims to reward the best Commonwealth fiction written in English, and to take the work to a wider audience. Previous winners include VS Naipaul, Margaret Atwood, Vikram Seth and Peter Carey.
Kate Grenville won last year's best book award with The Secret River. Last year's first book award was won by Mark McWatt's Suspended Sentences: Fictions of Atonement.

Väsby Sjöstad is a proposed new build development planned as an extension to Upplands Väsby.
Upplands Väsby is located between Stockholm and Arlanda International Airport. The town of 40,000 inhabitants represents an ideal location for hi-tech businesses but lacks high quality residential areas to attract workers.
The picturesque lakeside area of Väsby Sjöstad is one of the few suitable development locations but is in the ‘Green Wedge’ which forms part of the structural landscape of the city of Stockholm.
Many local people wish to preserve the landscape and therefore oppose the development, and even those who appreciate the pressing need for urban expansion recognise that the natural qualities that make it attractive could be lost if it is not designed with the greatest sensitivity.
The Väsby Sjöstad project was therefore a significant issue in terms of the town’s politics.
The local authority decided that a Community Planning approach was the best way of achieving a balanced debate. As the tradition of participatory planning is limited in Sweden, the local authority looked abroad, with the result that a JTP-led international team was commissioned to carry out the project.
– Extensive community participation in the creation of a vision through a Community Planning Weekend.
– Proposals for a sustainable development of 3,000 homes.
– Creation of a number of contained neighbourhoods located within specific character areas which appropriately reflect their differing landscape contexts.
– Development proposals designed to achieve a viable public transport service.
– Redevelopment of the lake waterfront as leisure space improving the framework of area as a whole.
– A proposed re-designation of land parcels to protect valuable landscape and allow the necessary development in less sensitive locations.
– Measures to protect the fragile forest bio-topes from increased human access

SOMERVILLE BECOMES FIRST CITY IN THE COMMONWEALTH TO UNVEIL URBAN AGRICULTURE ORDINANCE
State’s Premier Urban Agriculture Ordinance Includes Regs for Farming on City and Private Land, Keeping of Chickens and Bees.
"We are committed to making our city a great place to live, work, play and raise a family - and we believe that ought to include a commitment to promoting a healthy and sustainable community by increasing access to fresh, healthy local foods and reconnecting residents with their food sources," said Mayor Curtatone. "Somerville worked hard to become a model of innovation in such areas as government transparency, data sharing, and performance-driven management. Through programs like Shape Up Somerville, we've also maintained a focus on promoting healthier lifestyles and better health outcomes for all our residents - and especially our children. The passage of an Urban Agriculture Ordinance once again demonstrates how, as a community, we continue to embrace innovtgion and emerging best practices while working in close collaboration with great local partners like Groundwork Somerville and Green City Growers who have spearheaded this initiative."
"As chair of the Land Use Committee of the Board of Aldermen, I am pleased to be able to say that the Committee held a number of meetings with substantial public input, and worked with the Administration to prepare a final ordinance that balanced the important goals of promoting and facilitating Urban Agriculture while protecting residents from potential negative adverse health or quality of life impacts," said Alderman at Large William White.
"The Board of Health is pleased to be part of Somerville's momentum in once again leading the way to encourage healthy local food options for our residents," said Chairman of the Somerville Board of Health, Brian Green. "As evidenced by a unanimous vote, our entire membership encourages this initiative, and we look forward to working with the administration as we grow this and other related programs."
Somerville's new ordinance classifies activities under "Urban Agriculture" into categories including Farming (sale of produce grown on designated city or private lots and/or on rooftops), Gardening (growing produce not for sale on city and private lots, in greenhouses and/or on rooftops), and the keeping of animals (chickens and honeybees). Health regulations, approved by the Board of Health, also set guidelines and permitting structures surrounding the sale of foods, recommendations for soil safety and rodent control, and fee structures for the keeping of animals. Information has been consolidated into an easy-to-read "Somerville's ABC's of Urban Agriculture" Guidebook, available on the City's website, to encourage and promote activities throughout the City.
"Every resident should have easy, affordable access to fresh, healthy foods, and we hope that through these recommendations and guidelines, our community will continue to embrace the movement to reconnect residents with their food source, and make healthier lifestyle choices," said Mayor Curtatone. "We also hope that, through this ordinance, Somerville can provide a a resource to other Massachusetts municipalities seeking to implement Urban Agriculture, sharing our best practices and tools to make programs like this a reality across the state."
In the last year, the City has worked with community partners to implement a number of related programs, such as an educational series entitled "Let's Grow Somerville," a City Hall Container Garden on the steps of City Hall, an Urban Agriculture Blog ("Somerville Loves Urban Gardening:" somervilleurbanag.tumblr.com) , a Facebook group called "Somerville Loves Urban Gardening (SLUG), and community gardening and farming programs throughout the City.

Parking, management to keep Ski Hill traffic at bay
BRECKENRIDGE – Smaller parking lots and less development at the bases of Peaks 7 and 8 could eliminate the need for a gondola to ease traffic congestion on Ski Hill Road, traffic analysts told the Breckenridge planning commission Nov. 19.
But Breckenridge Ski Resort officials said they have no intention of abandoning plans for the lift, which will take skiers from in-town parking lots to the base of the mountains.
Slow-moving traffic coming down Ski Hill Road at the end of the day contributes to long lines at the Ski Hill and Park Avenue intersection and further congestion down North Park Avenue. Part of the appeal of the proposed gondola, which will run from Watson parking lot to Peak 7 and then 8 is that studies show the gondola will reduce vehicular traffic on the main road to Peak 8.
The ski company hired TDA Colorado, a Denver-based transportation consulting firm, to conduct a second traffic analysis to determine how development on the mountain will affect traffic on Ski Hill Road.
Town officials routinely require traffic studies to determine how larger developments will affect local roads. Ski resort officials ordered the study after they forged a development agreement with the town that more specifically outlines the density permitted at the base areas.
Under the terms of the agreement, the ski company can build 501 single-family equivalents (SFEs) at Peaks 7 and 8. An SFE is loosely defined as the square footage allowed in various types of construction. Outside the historic district, for example, one SFE is equivalent to 1,000 square feet of commercial space, 1,200 square feet of condo-hotel space and 1,600 square feet of townhomes. Within the historic district, the square footage allowed is smaller.
Last month, ski resort officials outlined a development proposal for the base areas. On Peak 8, proposed development will comprise 22 single-family homes, 296 condo-hotel rooms, 39,000 square feet of skier services and 14,500 square feet of commercial space.
On Peak 7, resort officials would like to build 143 condo-hotel units, 18,000 square feet of skier services and 500 square feet of commercial space, totalling 168,500 square feet of development.
Another part of the agreement sets up the criteria by which the resort and town will create two funding districts to build infrastructure for the area. The town also will help the resort develop a funding mechanism to pay for the gondola.
The gondola is key to the development’s success.
According to David Leahy of TDA, vehicle counts on Ski Hill Road would have almost doubled today’s numbers if the ski company had opted to build what currently is permitted under a base-area master plan approved in 1986.
But by reducing parking spots at the base area – from 650 today to 230 – ski area officials essentially force drivers to park in the Sawmill and Watson parking lots in town and use another method of transportation to get to the lifts.
Some people will use ski buses. But most, ski area officials say, will use the gondola, which will be capable of transporting 3,000 people an hour up the hill. It will take seven minutes to get riders to Peak 7 and an additional minute and a half to get to Peak 8.
Other ways resort officials propose to help reduce traffic on Peak 8 is through the new Peak 8 SuperConnect lift that will disperse skiers among the resort’s four peaks, the proposed ski-back that will take skiers from Peak 8 all the way back to the in-town parking lots, and parking and traffic management.
Traffic management in-cludes signs, pay parking and parking passes, working with local police to direct traffic, re-timing the traffic signal and intercepting traffic at Park Avenue and Ski Hill Road to prevent drivers from heading up the mountain.
