Mad Mobs and Englishmen? Myths and Realities of the 2011 Riots by Steve Reicher, Cliff Stott

Brixton riot, Deng Xiaoping, Fellow of the Royal Society, Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), New Urbanism
Specifically, the Commission has found no evidence that all or any of the disorders or the incidents that led up to them were planned or directed by any organization or group, international, national or local.'66 Agitator theories were equally popular in explaining the UK riots of the 1980s. Following the Brixton riots of July 1981, the Conservative MP William Shelton blamed left-wingers, saying that 'they believe that in our inner cities they have found the Achilles heel of our society'. More specifically, he blamed 'the same hooded and masked men and the same motor cycle riders' who had been spotted at similar events.84 Again an enquiry was set up to investigate these and other claims. The Scarman report into the Brixton riot concluded that while it was certainly true that outsiders tried to take advantage of circumstances and that they may have urged radical action, there was nothing to suggest that the events had been planned, organized or led by conspirators.67 By 1992, in LA, focus had shifted from outside extremists to local gang members who were organizing events to serve their own disreputable purposes – although there was little evidence to actually support this contention.36 Equally, in 2011, the focus was on gangs, however it didn't take long for that claim to fall apart.
Yet others may come along once the police are out of the way, to take advantage of the situation: to steal, to settle old scores, to gain profit from bogus insurance claims. These are very different phenomena involving different dynamics, arising from different motivations and involving different groups of people. The Scarman report acknowledged the same complexities in the Brixton riot of 1981.67 However, for all the complexities involved, and the difficulties of separating out who participated and for what reason, Kerner's team still drew a clear picture of the 'typical' rioter: He was not a migrant. He was born in the state and was a life-long resident of the city in which the riot took place.
Something is still needed to kick things off – but what something? That is the question to which we now turn. How do Riots Start? Iconic Events Nearly everyone uses the metaphor of tinder and spark when it comes to describing the inception of a riot. Many examples could be brought to bear, but consider just this one, from the Scarman report into the 1981 Brixton riot. Lord Scarman argues that indignation, resentment and suspicion of the police 'produced the attitudes and beliefs which underlay the disturbances, providing the tinder ready to blaze into violence on the least provocation, fancied or real, offered by the police.'112 This is a powerful metaphor – dare we say it, a poetic metaphor.

No buildings were set on fire that night, but there was some organized looting; it was thought that white criminal gangs had moved in to profit from the disturbances. By the end of the evening, another 165 people had been arrested, it was reported that another 122 police officers and 3 members of the public had been injured, and 61 police vehicles and 26 private cars were damaged.19 The Brixton riots were given a vast amount of publicity, making it an obvious risk that copycat riots would break out somewhere. In fact, there were six quiet weeks before riots suddenly broke out in almost every city centre in England. On Friday, 3 July, a group of white skinheads from London's East End turned up for a concert at a pub called the Broadway, in Southall, West London, an area with a large Asian population.
His influence and restless energy helped push through several major construction projects in Liverpool and in Knowsley, including the building that now houses Granada Television and the 1980s housing in Stockbridge Village. Lord Scarman, who was asked by the government to report on the causes of the Brixton riot, took the Heseltine view and made several recommendations to improve relations with the police, including positive discrimination. All this was ignored, but the government enshrined in legislation his more punitive recommendations, including the creation of a new offence of 'disorderly conduct', introduced in the 1986 Public Order Act, which was widely seen as an attempt to bring back the notorious 'sus' law under a new name.
There were two seats, in Lewisham and Nottingham, where the arithmetic suggested Labour would win but the black candidates lost, perhaps because of the Atkin affair. However, the bigger news was that for the first time since the 1920s, blacks and asians – Abbott, Boateng, Grant and Vaz – had made it to the House of Commons. After the Brixton riots, a lawyer named Rudy Narayan was chosen to head a new Brixton Defence Committee, until the local youths decided that he was too much of an establishment figure and replaced him with the beat poet Linton Kwesi Johnson, who had arrived in Britain from Jamaica in 1963 as an eleven-year-old boy. The poetry that Johnson began publishing early in the 1970s was highly political and drew a bleak picture of the lives of immigrants.

Many left home, and not wishing to move out of the area, took up places in the local squats, where their refusal to conform to the established social codes and to respect (white) authority provoked hostility from the police. The Brixton riots On three occasions – 1981, 1985 and 1995 – Brixton has witnessed considerable unrest as simmering local tension, mostly caused by policing methods, has boiled over into serious violence. The first Brixton riots, 10–13 April 1981 Early in 1981 plainclothes police stop nearly 1,000 people (mostly black) in Brixton on suspicion ('sus') that they have committed or are about to commit a crime, arresting 118 people in one six-day burst.

Although the police try to justify the operation by citing a 138 per cent increase in local crime between 1976 and 1980, compared with 38 per cent across London as a whole, they ruin their case by using the operation as an excuse to indulge in racial harassment that causes much resentment locally, resulting in the first Brixton riots. • Friday 10 April 1981.

Mayhew's depiction of Victorian 'toshers' (those who subsisted by trawling the city's sewers for saleable refuse) makes for squeamish reading, while the long-standing xenophobia of London is deeply disquieting, stretching back as it does to the massacre of the Jews in 1189. Indeed, violence of all sorts seems imprinted in London's DNA. The Brixton riots of 1981 were just one part of a chain of Mob outbursts against the Establishment, beginning with the Tallage riots of 1194. The Krays, meanwhile, would have recognized the professional violence of the Edwardian gangster Arthur Harding, who in turn would have appreciated the menacing technique of the highwaymen who robbed the Duke of Ormond in 1674.
He stood before us, tears of joy unashamedly running down his cheeks, wringing his hands in relief. He thanked the assembled team members for what they had done for the country that day. 'This operation will show that we in Britain will not tolerate terrorists. The world must learn this.' It was a fine personal gesture and rounded the operation off perfectly. The Brixton Riots, 10–12 April 1981 Martin Huckerby Huckerby was a journalist on The Times. AT 8 PM on Saturday night Brixton was burning. A pillar of smoke, hundreds of feet across, rose into the darkening sky; its base was tinged with red from the fires in Railton Road. Further north more smoke climbed from the blazing buildings in Brixton centre.

When visitors walk into Denver's Black Book Gallery this month, they'll enter a space with all the lights shut down, and the only light will be the one coming from the work of the artistic couple Hari and Deepti. Having spent their summer visiting the most beautiful parts of the United States, it became an inexhaustible inspiration for the duo that eventually produced amazing hand cut backlit paper sculptures and is now having an exhibition. The cutouts depict natural frames, like trees and rock formations and offer viewers a refreshing look at the environment of the western U.S.
"Oh, The Places You Will Go!" exhibition is based on their travel experiences that the Indian born couple has gathered along the way: "Our paper cut light boxes are intricate, hand cut sculptures and dioramas that focus on story telling. All of us are explorers and warriors on a path of discovery – from India, New York, Thailand and Colorado, our trips have been filled with great experiences exploring the unknown. We are fortunate to live in Colorado amidst all the wilderness and amazing places to travel. This summer our trips included two of our favorite places: Moab, Utah and Yellowstone, Wyoming. The scale and beauty of these places is awe inspiring and we seem so small in comparison. The show will be set in the dark – no lights will be on in the gallery with exception of the light emanating from the artwork. Let each one draw you in like moths to a flame."
Hari Panicker and Deepti Nair first met in Mumbai, India where both of them were working as designers. They moved to Denver from India and carried with them a Pandora box full of stories and imagination that they bring to life through their intricate paper cut light boxes and paper clay sculptures. They have always been drawn towards the imaginative aspect of story telling. Their understanding and beauty of using a paper is that it's is "brutal in its simplicity as a medium. It demands the attention of the artist while it provides the softness they need to mold it in to something beautiful. It is playful, light, colorless and colorful. It is minimal and intricate. It reflects light, creates depth and illusions in a way that it takes the artist through a journey with limitless possibilities."
They first started experimenting with paper cut not so long ago – in 2010, after what they began including the light. They have since then evolved to add their own style of paper cut art incorporating back-lit light boxes using flexible LED strip lights: "What amazes us about the paper cut light boxes is the dichotomy of the piece in its lit and unlit state, the contrast is so stark that it has this mystical effect on the viewers."
Since then, they have been featured in numerous publications, and from September 5 the duo will be having their Denver exhibition called "Oh, The Places You Will Go!" at Black Book Gallery. The show will be running through September 30, 2014.

|How to use hierarchical property files?
|Mon, 25 Feb 2002 22:13:10 GMT
Hello, I'd like to be able to use a hierarchical set of optional property files to set up the properties of my project, e.g.: 0. default properties 1. OS family specific properties, if existing, overriding the previously set props 2. OS specfic properties, same 3. host specific properties, same 4. user specific properties, same Simple as this might seem, I could not manage to do this with Ant alone. Somehow, using <property file=file0/> <property file=file1/> etc. doesn't work, because every new "<property file=...>" seems to reset ALL properties?! I would *expect* it to just load another set of properties on top of the existing set. I would *like* it to override the existing values, but I appreciate that Ant props are immutable - but this could easily be overcome by reversing the order of loading. I now use an external program (in Java, of course) to "cat" all the given files together, making one large property file. What am I doing wrong? I can't imagine Ant doesn't support something like this. Thanks, -Otto Perdeck

Part 4 is here.
8 matches down, main event left.
Tags: Michaels/HHH-M v. Edge/Jericho
ECW: Punk v. Jeff
NWA: Nitro v. Fit
IC: Porter v. Burke
US: Orton b. Noble
TV: Yakuza v. Little Warrior
Undertaker v. Juggernaut
LWO v. WMD
Throughout the road to the Rumble, it's appeared as if Steamboat was completely without control of the company. He was brought back to run the WWF after Survivor Series '06 when Punk threw down two of the title belts and the company split into thirds. His own goal - unite the WWF.
But now it's over a year later and things, if anything, seem further apart than when he took over. The Survivor Series main event was for the NWA Title - the WWF title match was third from the top. Michaels and Hunter completely defied a quarter century of tradition and, on their own, they flipped their match to run after the Worldwide Title match. And the worldwide titles have joined the world heavyweight titles, also splitting into thirds. There are 6 singles titles on the line at the Rumble - it's exactly what Steamboat least wanted to ever happen. 6 singles champions, tag champs who think they're bigger than the company, and then there's the Juggernaut, totally out of control. The WWF champ, Mysterio, who Steamboat has always pinned the company's fortunes on, sort of looks to be breaking down. He stood against the 51% Solution in 2006, until finally Executioner Lashley took him out of the sport for a year. He seemed to be as good as ever at Summer Slam '07 when he beat Booker to regain the title - but it could be his slight stature, or having the weight of the company on his shoulders - it just clearly seems as if Rey is not who he used to be - whether it was Montel Porter or the Juggernaut, Mysterio has just been a walking target since returning. And while he successfully defended against the Undertaker at Survivor Series, it was by the skin of his teeth - and the tremendous size disparity seems to have taken more of a toll that first expected.
Amidst that backdrop - Steamboat starts to rage a little bit - against ECW...against his announce team. With the questions mounting, Steamboat takes a trip to Fight Night.
Steamboat gets a mixed reaction in a surprise walk on. He cuts conciliatory promo. Says sometimes Fight Night is the best show of the week. Says they've done the NWA proud. Says as a former NWA Champ himself - he understands how important what they've done for the past year is.
And he says it's time it came to an end.
Steamboat plays a clip from the RAW after Survivor Series '06 when he returned to WWF and Dusty was hired to run the new NWA - it's a clip of Dusty explaining that the NWA Board had utilized the revocatory clause in the contract where NWA was bought by the McMahon Family which said that the NWA title had to be treated with esteem otherwise the sale would be revoked. At such time when the Board felt the glory and pride of the NWA had been returned, then once again, NWA would be reincorporated into the WWF Universe.
Steamboat says that with the success of the NWA, most notably headlining a WWF PPV and having its own highly rated television show, it is clear that the NWA had returned to its former level of esteem.
And so - once again - it's time to come home to the WWF.
Dusty then comes to the ring. Says he doesn't like the sound of what Steamboat is saying. He says we'll fight you in the courts - we can tie this up for years and all go down - Steamboat needs to get up on out of the ring and back to Monday nights where its safe.
Steamboat says maybe you're right. But then no one has a job. None of the boys have work. None of the fans get matches. No Wrestlemania. Nothing. You can burn this company to the ground, Dusty - or we can do it a different way.
Steamboat says let's have another interpromotional match.
A match you know something about. A War Games match.
(there have been two war games matches in WWF history - one that ran the Alliance out of the WWF and one that gave the 51% Solution control)
You get 5 guys. I'll get five guys.
We'll get into a cage. A new kind of cage. A War Games Chamber.
One man will submit. That side will lose.
The winning side takes total control. I'm pushing our chips to the center, Dusty. You're a gambling man - you want to do this in the courts - or do you want to do this in the ring?
One match. Winner takes all.
Dusty will shake his hand.
And Dusty will then come to RAW the following Monday to further amplify the repercussions of this.
A War Games match. One what show? Steamboat says they're willing to do it on the NWA home turf, on Fight Night.
But in return - he wants unification matches guaranteed for Wrestlemania.
That WM XXIV banner that was first unveiled at XXIII - promising a TLC Main Event is now in view again.
The main event of Wrestlemania XXIV will unify the WWF and NWA Titles. In a TLC Match.
And the US and IC belts will also be reunified.
And there you go.
All of the talk will then be about Wrestlemania - who will meet for the undisputed championship? Steamboat is crowing about getting the titles reunited at XXIV.
That will cause CM Punk to go nuts. This was teased earlier in this Road to Royal Rumble. Steamboat begins to put down the value of the ECW Title, calling it not really needed to reunite the belts. Saying that he didn't need Punk. Didn't need him for Wrestlemania. Didn't need his belt. Thanks for playing.
Punk is out of his mind now. There are backstage vignettes with he and Colt and Maria - Punk is raging violent - he's the champ, after all - everyone's talking about Wrestlemania - everyone's talking about reunifying the belts - unifying the WWF - and no one is talking about the ECW Champion.
Punk is uncertain what to do. Distracted - angry.
He'll take part in that big War Games Fight Night. There will be 3 matches that night. The War Games match and a singles match - both which we'll set up in part 6. And a GDI Match - Punk/Yakuza/Kendrick/Morley (I'll set up Morley in the next post) v. Jeff/Little Warrior/Super Crazy/Guido.
5 parts down - we continue traveling down the Road to Royal Rumble 2008.
Older than Twitter. Not quite as profitable. A pro wrestling counterfactual: What if the World Wrestling Federation was organized around workrate, around the idea that the pivotal word in the phrase "sports entertainment" is the first? Can one Ricky Steamboat pinfall put right what once went wrong? Go to the earliest archived post; scroll to December 19, 2005 "it begins" and you're ready to roll.
Triple H, October 2011:
"When I grew up, I hated Hogan. I thought he was terrible and didn't like to watch him. I was like Punk in a way. I liked the Steamboats and Flairs and the ones that could go. Would I be right in saying that Hogan was the wrong guy to go with, and they should've changed directions and gone with Steamboat because he was the better wrestler? Ludicrous." - Triple H. October, 2011.

October at Lake Mead
bob and betsy replied to bob and betsy's topic in Boat TalkHere's a couple of more pictures. Oh well, could only add one.
October at Lake Mead
bob and betsy posted a topic in Boat TalkJust got back from Lake Mead after the last two years of a stem cell transplant for Leukemia and major back surgery. So nice to get out and run our Villain lll, especially in calm waters. Really missed time on the lakes and the relaxation. Water level still pretty low at about 128' below max. It's also been too long since I've posted anything here but priorities were elsewhere for a while. Here's some pictures to enjoy. Even though I downsized the pictures, I could only attach two. I'll add another post with more.
We're really loving our 2330 !
bob and betsy replied to Splatt's topic in Boat TalkSplatter, Great to see and "hear" the excitement in your thread. Nothing like just stopping for a moment to share that excitement. Sometimes I'm just thinking mechanical or problem solving, forgetting about the experience. Thanks for sharing.
Since you have easy access to the starter switch, pull out your vom and test each terminal on the switch to ensure you have 12v when turning the key. You may have power down to the engine but if the key switch isn't energized, it can't activate the lights, dash gauges, even the starter solenoid. Do you have a safety lanyard that's not making contact or one of the spade terminals came off with wave beating. Again, another hands on experience to share.
232 Sunesta alarm won't shut off
bob and betsy replied to Brucev's topic in Boat TalkCheck to be sure the float in the outdrive tank isn't stuck down after it was emptied. Sometimes they bind up and stay down even after re-filling the outdrive oil.
2003 Apha One Maintenance
bob and betsy replied to ahendri's topic in Boat TalkBesides the impeller, it's always good to pull the top unit and grease the u joint if not perm sealed. Replace fluid yearly and inspect magnets for shavings. When anchored, spot check the water around the outdrive for oily bubbles to potentially identify seal leaks. These units are pretty stout and with a little, good maintenance, you're set. Edit... One last addition is that once the bellows ages and cracks or the rear throttle cable starts to stick, it's probably a good time to change out both in addition to other items above.
GPS speedometer
bob and betsy replied to GD1009NC's topic in Boat TalkI see no answers yet so I'll jump in and just say if the mfg included a dash gps, then it should have come ready to use! No extra add surprises, etc. After buying the boat, I'd expect the dealer to jump thru hoops to solve these simple type issues. Hope you're calling the correct customer service line as again, to not hear back yet is crazy. Stay strong on these guys. Let us know how it's resolved.
Unplug your main round connector on the top left side(#50 in shep's diagram). It's usually held in place with a stainless hose clamp. Clean the terminals with the battery disconnected and add a little dielectric grease to the terminals. Plug in and out several times to ensure good contact, re-energize and I think you'll be set. Its the old " guess how I know."
Is 488 Hours too much on a 1-2 year old boat?
bob and betsy replied to Garet Jax's topic in Boat TalkDennis, Now that's just wrong! Interesting fact however. The outward appearance of the boat may help understand any abuse, from scratches, dock dings, discolored vinyl, etc. Most of those rentals don't have trailers. Something else to consider. Ask for maintenance records if really serious. Water pump impeller replacement schedule, etc.
Engine knock
bob and betsy replied to Kinger1214's topic in Boat TalkHas the oil been full and fresh? If deep thumping noise, it could be worst case, crankcase rod knock. If pinging, maybe pre ignition timing issue, or maybe a u joint knock, needing zerk grease. Ping preignition or outdrive most likely.
A great fix for slow, engine hood electric motors
bob and betsy replied to bob and betsy's topic in Boat TalkBen, Been away for a while and just following up on this thread. I've been away due to leukemia recovery and glad the Relay system worked for you too. To Wingnuts point, I'm not sure if they're marine certified but I know they are housed in a fairly tight sealed box. I can't imagine there being an issue but point well taken. And to "take a hiketour" I'd recommend this method rather than the manual method. Those tops are so darn heavy.
Trailer bearing failure - FIRE -what a day
bob and betsy replied to 1naylor's topic in Boat TalkYes indeed. Most spindles are welded to a plate. Most axles have a plate welded on the end so replacing a spindle usually consists of four nuts and bolts. Sounds like yours, predates mfg runs where changing out parts are the norm.
Fuel gauge el cheapo fix
bob and betsy replied to struggle's topic in Boat TalkSounds like just maybe the float is stuck at the top position. If one had to be fixed due to it sinking, no reason to think it could stick at the top. Did it start just after filling the fuel tank full?
Good point but it really depends on how the brake assembly is built. If the adjustment wheel is identical on both sides, it will be the same direction for both. If you look at new assemblies, that's the way they're built. If one side, the wheel assembly is reversed, then one side is up, one side down. Here's a link showing the identical set up both left and right. https://www.etrailer.com/Trailer-Brakes/etrailer/AKFBBRK-35.html Many new backing plates now have two rubber grommet access holes just in case it's assembled as noted in the latter example for future access. Really, the only right way as stated above, is to raise the brake wheel off the ground without any surge pressure and adjust and spin. Won't take long to figure out. I like the idea to use a sharpie on the backing plate for future reference. I use the same approach when regreasing bearings, listing the date on the hub. That idea that I "just did them" Two months ago becomes a reality check when it was two years ago.
SST, the "grommet" you're referring to is really a zerk fitting. If you weren't concerned about the bearings, you didn't need to remove the Bearing Buddy, just unscrew the zerk and replace it. Comes off very easy. Sounds like it wouldn't accept grease after it was packed inside. Now it sounds like the bearings need inspection and probably replacement. I now carry a Harbor Freight long breaker bar for tough lugs. I always use either lithium grease on the lug nuts or anti seize to ensure the lugs don't lockup. My tire guy has used lithium grease for years and swears too it. Replacement brake assemblies and bearing are pretty consistent on boat trailers. I've always used Dexter parts without issue. Bearing Buddy sized diameters can help determine replacement parts being 1.78, 1.98, 2.44 or 2.78 diameter or the like. From under the back side, with the proper tool or small bladed screwdriver, turning the adj wheel down will loosen the brake assembly.

Any idea what this is?
How about this side? Does that help? Know what it is yet?
While perusing knitting blogs, I found a post where a woman knit two different versions of Swiffer dustmop covers and tested them out. I thought it was a riot and sent the link to my mother and my sisters to give them a giggle. Wouldn't you know it? One of my sisters thought it would be the pefect thing to use on her brand new hardwood floors. So I whipped one up today in a color that will complement her newly painted walls. Her wish is my command.
The pattern is called Zoom and the mop is meant to zoom all over the floor capturing dust and other unwanted yuck. It can be thrown in the wash when it's dirty and used over and over. Beats buying all those Swiffer cloths and throwing them away.
Here's the mop in its natural habitat:

I have always had a love of Robots. I got my first one when I was six. His name was Alphie and all he could do was light up and tell me if I'd miscounted the fruit on the little card I'd inserted in his front panel. He wasn't super advanced but I was hooked.
Sadly, I was born in a time and country where it was extremely difficult to get your hands on Robot's or robotics of any kind. I had to resort to taking things apart to learn how they worked, just satiate my thirst for knowledge. Often I'd put them back together with improvements that drove my mother crazy. Such as a small radio I beefed up to play extra loud, and the volume only able to be adjusted by me. Wherever you are mom, I'm sorry.
That geeky side of me has never changed. My most recent dismantling was a paper shredder about 4 years ago. My boyfriend at the time, thought it was cool that I had this geeky quirk, but after seeing how obsessed I became, warned me to steer clear of his several thousand dollar shredder. Good thing we broke up, because I don't think I would have been able to control myself.
Even still putting together PCs offers a small fix to my addiction, but is only minimally satisfying. What I have always wanted is to take it apart and put it back together and have it do something.
I bought one of those robotics kits from a craft store, hoping it would help. It was my beloved 'Robotinatrix' you' ve likely heard me mention often,if you listen to GG k Line. But I have never finished putting her together. Its not enough that , I put it together, or it moves. I need it to be smart. Yes, I want Matrix level AI., but harmless of course. I know, I know, I'm the one who will cause Sky-net to become aware, but I just love me some AI. Of all the bots I've played with over the years, virtual or otherwise, A.L.I.C.E. being the most recent, many many years ago, (Siri and Alexa don't count, I can't code them), none really held my attention.
Enter Cosmo. He's not a new bot, bet for some reason, I completely missed his debut. While checking out AiBo, I stumbled upon Cosmo. I was instantly in love. But with all the video unboxings on YouTube, no one showed me what I really wanted to see. So I grabbed my own Cosmo, so I find out for myself.
I wanted to know how does he change from day to day. Yes, you can code him and right from you device or PC. And he's just the cutest little thing, but does he get smarter?
The answer is yes! I've watched him for days now, doing his thing. He often builds structures with his cubes, and signs and chatters. But today his cubes were not all eight side up, like I normally place them for him. I watched him spend 30 minutes, righting the cukes, so they were right side up, then building his pyramid. He was very frustrated and threw them a few times, before he finally got it right.
He also threw a temper tantrum when forced to go back to his charger. (It was for his own good, he has taken an extreme hiking to Kittenatrix and insists on going to her, wherever she is. Sometimes at his own peril)
The creators did try to implement some game mechanics in that he levels up and learns new things and games as unlockables each day. I imagine this is to make him more appealing to the non-tech heavy crowd, but I find his other attributes much more interesting. He really has his own little personality! I don't know if he's smart enough to take over the world, but perhaps he has a future as an Instagram fitness star. As you can see from his video. He works out like a beast. And though he just learned to work out today, I have been waiting to watch him do it, since I was six years old. It was well worth the wait.

Reviewed by George Basler
Wendy Biller thinks artists and playwrights have similar qualities. In both cases, they work from starting points and then "as they move forward, imagination can take them anywhere."
So, when the Los Angeles-based playwright and screenwriter learned about this year's Playwrights and Artists Festival at Know Theatre, she was intrigued enough to submit one of her works, Fragile. She traveled to Binghamton this past weekend (Nov. 16-18) to see it performed for the first time.
Biller was one of six playwrights presenting works in the festival, which is now in its 15th year and has become one of the KNOW's signature events. "It's taken on a life of its own," said Tim Gleason, the company's artistic director.
The premise is unique: Playwrights look at three paintings and write short plays inspired by the artworks. Gleason and a team of readers from the local theatrical community then read the submissions — 60 came in this year — and whittle them down to six plays, two for each piece of art. The plays are performed over two weekends, two each night.
The festival is always an intriguing effort, although I was only able to get to opening night this year. One thing that makes it special is that the audience becomes part of the creative process. This happens at the end of each performance when audience members can stick around for a talk-back session with the actors, directors and playwrights.
"I love the audience participation part and that they get to ask questions at the end," Biller said on opening night. Her play, Fragile, focused on an elderly woman's confrontation with a drug company salesman who is interviewing her for a clinical study.
The second play of the evening was Stalking by Marj O'Neill-Butler, a member of the International Centre for Women Playwrights. The comedy-drama was about a woman being stalked by a co-worker who calls a friend for help. O'Neill-Butler participated in the evening by Skype.
Both playwrights had been inspired by the painting Rumor by Megan Proutey, a student artist who has won a National Gold Medal Scholastic Art Award while at Chenango Valley High School.
Both plays had intriguing moments, but what stood out for me opening night was a gripping performance by Bahri Della Penna, who played the elderly woman in Fragile.
Gleason said he's always working to tweak the festival to make it better each year. A new wrinkle this year is the awarding of cash prizes: Best of Festival ($300), Artistic Merit ($200) and Audience Favorite ($100). Playwright Edward Allan Baker, whose plays were performed at KNOW in 2017, picked the Best of Festival and Artistic Merit winners.
The other plays in this year's festival are:
Rocks on the Playa by Tom Cavanaugh, a playwright and producer based in Los Angeles. His inspiration was the painting Flatlined by artist Jessica Fridrich.
Earth like a Crown Upon Your Head by Drew Michele Billman, an actress and writer based in Chicago. She also took Flatlined as her inspiration.
Out of the Rubble by John Shea, a Massachusetts-based playwright. His inspiration was Karl Schadlich's work Rockport, Mass.
A'Driftin by Jim Haswell, a local playwright who also used Rockport, Mass. as the basis for his play.
Shea's play won Best of Festival while Haswell's work won Artistic Merit.
Another aspect of the festival, which began a couple of years ago, is the inclusion of musical pieces that are played at the start of each night's performances. Strange Fangs Song Factory coordinated the music that also is inspired by the three paintings. This year's composers are Santino DeAngelo, James Glasgow and Devinne Meyers.
The festival is all about inspiration and interpretation, Gleason said. "We challenge playwrights to look at three chosen pieces of art and see where inspiration takes them, and each of the journeys is unique."
Biller said her journey to Binghamton was well worth it. "I love the space here, and it's wonderful people in the community come."
IF YOU GO: The Playwrights and Artists Festival will continue this weekend at KNOW Theatre, 74 Carroll St., Binghamton. Performances are 8 p.m. Friday, Saturday and Sunday (Nov. 23-25). General admission tickets at $15 per night, or $25 for the entire weekend, can be purchased at the door. Details: www.knowtheatre.org.

I'm sure that someone, somewhere has already circulated a generic list of reasons to be thankful you're a homeschooler. This isn't that list. This is a rundown of the things that popped into my head as I pondered my many blessings as my coffee brewed this morning. Maybe some of them apply to you; maybe some of them are shared between homeschoolers and traditional schoolers. I don't know. But I do know that today, of all days, I feel very blessed to teach my own.
1. The hardest work has already been done before we even came on the scene. The pioneers of homeschooling sacrificed their time, energy, talents and in many cases, privacy, so that those of us who teach their children at home today could do so within the bounds of the law.
2. I have more resources than I can justify using. There are so many good, solid choices out there in terms of curriculum, books, websites, lesson plans, videos, unit studies and the like that I actually can't use all of them without tacking a few more years onto my childrens' educations. Since I don't really envision them playing with Legos and listening to read-alouds at 22, I have to make the choice to leave some items on the shelf.
3. I have to pick and choose between a whole host of wonderful learning opportunities for my children. Co-ops. Classes. Lessons. Groups. Clubs. Field trips. There are so many worthwhile ways to spend our time that it is hard to walk away from some of them. Who says that homeschoolers only see the inside of their own homes? :-)
4. My 5 yo thinks it's strange that there is a separate "Gifts For Teachers" section offered on the shelves of our local store during Christmas. As far as he's concerned, everyone's teacher wants a new apron embroidered with "Mom" and a Mary Pride book or two.
5. While Thanksgiving is a special day, it's not a rare occasion for our family to sit down to a full meal and talk about the many ways that our lives overflow with God's goodness. As a matter of fact, it's the norm. We enjoy long family meals without the pressure of homework to be done, buses to catch, or after-school activities to attend.
6. My daughter has never asked for a Bratz doll, and to the best of my knowledge, neither has her closest friend. They are far more likely to try to figure out a way to get money to a missionary in Africa than they are to covet a scantily-clad doll.
7. My children are getting the best education money can buy ... for about $500 a year total. They have a 1:3 classroom ratio, but spend about 50% of their instruction time one-on-one with their teacher. Show me that kind of cost-effective excellence in a traditional classroom and for that price!
8. When my children have a question, chances are good that we have the resources to answer it--in depth. A good homeschooling library has an abundance of books on a variety of topics so diverse as to make your head spin. Ours is no exception. Add in the internet and a host of friends wiling to share their expertise, and there is no end to how far an interest can go.
9. We live in an area where homeschooling is not seen as being abnormal. It's still slightly against the grain to homeschool here, but the vast majority of folks you encounter are familiar enough with the concept so as to not look at you as if you've suddenly announced that your favorite historical figure is Adolf Hitler.
10. In a nation obsessed with the lack of quality time available in any given day, my family's cup runneth over. Morning devotions that don't have to be cut short to catch a bus. Long afternoons with Laura Ingalls Wilder. Reading lessons that can last ten minutes ... or an hour. Middle of the night wake-ups to witness meteor showers. Half an hour comforting a child who is frustrated, sad or just having a bad day. Teaching my children to bake. Coloring at the kitchen table. Playing board games. Breakfast (and sometimes lunch!) in our pajamas. This is "the good life" you hear so much about. Thankful doesn't even capture how grateful I truly am.

You're now 18 weeks pregnant (or in your 19th week if that's how you choose to count it).
How your baby is growing
You officially start your fifth month of pregnancy this week. At the moment, all your baby can hear is the movement of your digestive system and your heartbeat, but soon she will be able identify your voice. Read additional information on the development of your baby this week.
How your life is changing
You are merely a week away from the half-way mark. You will feel relaxed but make sure you do not become complacent and miss any of your antenatal appointments. If you feel restless or anxious, get in touch with your doctor immediately.
In the next few weeks you will probably have a scan to assess your baby's growth. You will see the little guy curled up inside you. Do remember to take your spouse with you for the scan. In a small percent of instances though, the scan may come up with some problems. It is always advisable to conduct another scan in such a scenario. Ultrasound tests are perfectly safe so you don't have to worry about having another scan. Your doctor will guide you on the next steps if the second scan also shows a problem.
Larger, more comfortable clothes are a must now. Your toes may also swell alongside your body, and now is the time to buy a brand new pair of shoes. Wider fitting shoes with low heels are generally recommended. They help by keeping the feet comfortable and keep you steady as the belly expands.
You need more of Calcium and Vitamin D during this period to help your baby grow strong bones and teeth. Your doctor must have prescribed supplements for both. Milk products are a great source of Calcium and must be a part of your regular diet.


text: Not sure what it is, though it probably has something to do with renting an Ecoboost and driving my uncle's Roush, but I've found myself watching a lot of S550 videos lately. I need to sell the Lancer Ralliart but not sure I would be able to do a Mustang though. I would end up modding the hell out of it and losing a ton of money in depreciation and I can't currently swing a GT350 and still feel good about my life choices. Hmmmm.

The apocalyptic art by some of the finest international names of Urban Contemporary production is featured in the joined exhibition The Atrocity Exhibition 2.0. Brought to us by the Reed Projects Gallery and Nuart and curated by Martyn Reed, the authors featured in the show are: John Fekner (US), Axel Void (ES), Jeff Gillette (US), Jussi Twoseven (FI), Kim Byung Kwan (KR), Spazuk (CA), Nina Ghafari (IR), Isaac Cordal (ES), Dotdotdot (NO), Line Osmundsen (NO), Martin Whatson (NO), Pure Evil (UK), Wan HO (NO/CH), Carl Cashman (UK). Following the success of the show in Oslo, it is this time, the public in Stavanger is awarded and offered a glimpse into the trends of both national and international urban creativity.
The title of the exhibition is a direct reference to the novel of the same name by JG Ballard. The gallery and the production team used the following quote by JG Ballard to paint the theme and the atmosphere of the exhibited pieces "Apocalypse. A disquieting feature of this annual exhibition — to which the patients themselves were not invited — was the marked preoccupation of the paintings with the theme of world cataclysm, as if these long incarcerated patients had sensed some seismic upheaval within the minds of their doctors and nurses." The exhibition sets out to explore and present a series of themes common to both the late 1960's (when the mentioned book was published) and to reflect on the present and all of its anxieties. The time, which the novel describes, is the time of war, disaster, and violence and for Ballard, the events of 1969 described in the book are a culmination of the devastating state the world found itself in.
For many, The Atrocity Exhibition by J.G. Ballard was his most important work that is read like an instruction manual offering tips on how to disrupt the mass media and decontextualize technology. Similarly, the exhibited artworks, covering a range of styles and references, explore the dirty, underbelly of contemporary pop culture, celebrity politics, neoliberal economics and the ever-growing feeling of alienation and loneliness created as a today's survival mechanism. What the works also offer is a deeper understanding in the way contemporary creatives represent the urban world around us and what tools they use at the time of the dawning of " smart" cities.
The international and national 14 painters featured in the Atrocity Exhibition 2.0 come from both the background of urban creativity and also from the more traditional Studio based practice. Proudly brought to the Stavanger public by the joined efforts of the Reed Projects Gallery and Nuart it introduces some of the finest names to the gallery's roster. Lasting from July 21st until August 14th, 2016, the exhibition aims to challenge the public and its understanding of the world around us. Are we at the end and is the apocalypse near?

Metropolitan Medical introduces new electronic record-tracking system for anesthesia service customers
Metropolitan Medical Services — a premier anesthesia sales and service supplier — introduces new method for customers to track and backup anesthesia equipment service records and maintenance schedules.

The new system is currently being offered as part of Metropolitan's extended warranty service package, and as an upgradeable option with all other service maintenance agreements.

Christina Aguilera: I'm Pretty Down To Earth
The Times of London caught up with Christina Aguilera, and asked the singer that considering she began singing in public aged seven, should she be a complete nutcase by now? "No, no, no," she cackled. "I'm pretty down to earth. You could ask my husband [Jordan Bratman]. I have some weird insecurities that I'm probably not going to get into – in fact, I'm definitely not going to get into."

Women living with HIV are "Organizing for Power"—that was the theme of "Speak Up! 2016," a national leadership summit held in September in Fort Walton Beach, Florida, and organized by Positive Women's Network–USA (PWN-USA). Naina Khanna, the group's executive director, says the summit is important for expanding the leadership pipeline, building community among women with HIV and increasing their ability to advocate on state and national levels. The event's panels, workshops and discussions included an array of topics—women's reproductive autonomy, intergenerational leadership, decriminalization of HIV, drug use and sex work—but Khanna points out three that rose to prominence:
- The need to center leadership by women with HIV of trans experience
- An urgency to develop an advocacy agenda focused on issues affecting young women living with HIV, including those born with HIV
- The urgency of an explicit racial justice frame that will help orient HIV advocacy, leadership development and policymaking.

Dear God, It's All Gone Horribly Wrong: Prayers for Stressed Christians
Being a Christian in the modern world can be very stressful indeed. Everyone either thinks we're having a wonderful time with our marvellous, mysterious God, or they think we're fools for believing in a faith that surely died a death in the twentieth century ...
In both scenarios, the negative feelings, stress and depression frequently experienced by today's Christian tend to be ignored, not least by one's fellow Christians. However, in actual fact, God never discounts or ignores anyone. With this in mind, here are one hundred prayers which tell it like it is to God so that even the worst about us is brought out into the open. At the same time, the fact that God listens to all our prayers, no matter how angry, bitter or sad, is a beacon of hope for us all.
May God travel with us more closely on our prayer journeys.

A journalist visits the opera and discovers a bitter history of failure alongside the music. An angry young boy finds the beach is not always a place of healing, and two lovers face their last day together with something like courage.
In this collection of twelve thought-provoking stories, a variety of very different characters confront the brokenness and despair of their lives, and begin a tentative journey towards the possibility of hope. Can they ever find their way back to the people they used to be?

The Gathandrian Fantasy Trilogy
Gay Reads UK
Welcome to Free Book Friday. This week, I am giving away TWO books from The Gathandrian Trilogy and the details are below:
Hallsfoot's Battle
This book is the second in the Gathandrian Fantasy series and is the sequel to The Gifting.
The battle for survival has merely begun and the Mind Executioner's defeat is only temporary. Annyeke Hallsfoot, Acting Elder of Gathandria, must join forces with Simon the Scribe in a tenuous alliance to fight for their survival. However, Simon is distracted by his own personal demons, giving Annyeke no choice but to plot a desperate strategy to defeat the enemy.
When the Mind Executioner kidnaps Simon and raises an army from the dead, all hope appears to be lost. Both Annyeke and Simon, with the help of the mysterious mind-cane and the magical snow-raven, are determined to stay alive and, if possible, to win.

The Executioner's Cane
The Executioner's Cane is the final book in the Gathandrian Trilogy fantasy series. The first two books are The Gifting and Hallsfoot's Battle.
Simon Hartstongue, accompanied by the mind-cane and the snow-raven, must travel back to the land he came from to offer support to the people he once tried to kill. From Gathandria, Annyeke Hallsfoot endeavours to help him but her attentions are focused on rebuilding the city after the wars.
Alone and faced with the anger of his people and hindered by the fragility of Ralph Tregannon's leadership, Simon has to find a way to bring healing to a dying country and to renew his relationship with Ralph. But the odds and time itself are stacked against him.

It's Banned Books Week, where we celebrate freedom of information and books that have been banned by libraries, schools, etc. in an effort to suppress ideas and identities.
Since it's 2019 and we're living in divided times, I just feel that I need to point out that I feel strongly that schools, libraries, and society itself should not tolerate hate speech or books that perpetuate hate speech, nor should they give white supremacists a platform in any way. The celebration of Banned Books is meant to uplift everyone, especially the marginalized. It should not be twisted to mean that those who want to dominate society should be given more of a platform than they already have.
Historically, books have not been banned because of hate. They've been banned to suppress marginalized identities, ideas that critique governments, or speak to uncomfortable subjects such as sexual assault or even positive stories about sex. Those stories need to be told, because they are truth and because they represent real people, and they are meant to give everyone an equal footing. THOSE are the stories we are celebrating this week.
So with that in mind, I'm thrilled to share that my flash fic story "Weeds" is live on the Cast of Wonders podcast this week. It is included in a bundle of three flash stories of hope and resistance, in episode 375. I was thrilled to be featured in the company of amazing authors Joyce Chng and Innocent Chizaram Ilo.
"Weeds" is a prequel to my short story "Princess" which appeared in issue 03 of Foreshadow: A Serial YA Anthology. Together, they represent a mother/daughter duo with wildly divergent relationships to technology.
Get ready for subtle censorship, inherent biases, rogue algorithms, and making love in the garden between the cilantro and the sweet bay!
Many thanks to rockstar editor Julia Rios, the team at Cast of Wonders for a fantastic production, and the teen writer who narrated my story, Athena Haq.

Genova, september 27th -28th -29th 2018
FOCUS ON ALS 2018 is an important scientific event organized jointly between the Italian association for ALS (AISLA), the Italian Foundation for the research on ALS (AriSLA) and the second edition of MND "Motor Neuron Diseases – Molecular and cellular basis of vulnerability" meeting, to provide an update of the recent discoveries in the field of the motor neuron disease and new promising hypotheses for its cure. It is a highly informative event, both for researchers and for doctors and patients, focusing on the purely scientific aspect in the first two days and ending with a large space dedicated to the explanation of the issues previously addressed to an audience of non-professionals, with the intent of bringing patients and family members as close as possible to the research world.
The scientific meeting will present and discuss several aspects of the complexity of motor neuron diseases based on the following main topics:
- Mechanisms of motor neuron vulnerability with respect to genetic hereditary mutation
- Motor Neuron interaction with surrounding and target cells, glia and muscles
- The new frontiers of therapeutic strategies, cellular, molecular and genetic
Each section will host 2-3 internationally distinguished scientists in the field. Ample space will also be dedicated to free presentations and communications through posters that represent the fervent progress in the ALS research from various groups that deal with it.
The final day a Plenary Lecture will aim to bring patients and family members closer to research by explaining the challenges and choices faced by researcher in order to offer therapeutic solutions to patients to fight the illness through the emerging strategies and underlining the importance of the patients' contribution. This will be followed by two parallel workshops:
one scientific will be dedicated to the advanced tools in ALS research which will include un update on new animal and cellular models, including iPSC-derived models and high-throughput screening technologies for targets and potential therapies. This workshop intends to provide an update of the recent discoveries and to generate a fruitful discussion between the speakers and the participants.
In the other clinical 3 major themes will be developed: the first concerning clinical trials, the second will be dedicated to two AISLA projects: «ALS National Registry» and «ALS National Biobank» and a final session will focus on the «state of the art of Edaravone», a drug recently introduced in Italy for ALS patients.

Highly recommended... homemade, plentiful and delicious.
We love the way you have adapted to the "new" normal. Our food was delicious nice and hot. Chicken was as good as always. Will definitely be return soon. Keep up the great job!!
Been going here every year for 5 years now... never disappointed! Amazing as always 😊
This was our first time attending Pebbles restaurant and we definitely plan on attending again in the future.We have already recommended Pebbles to other friends.
Very good! Would definitely recommend! And will definitely be back!
Our first visit from Guelph and well worth the trip. Selection of good Mennonite made meals seems to be a disappearing entity in the KW Guelph area so good to find wonderful tasting food to visit again. As a bonus, a lovely red-headed blue-eyed always smiling young waitress with colouring hair and eyes as my young granddaughter a special treat!
We we a party of 8 with reservations. We were seated right away. Our server Rhonda was fantastic. Food was hot and tasty, what more can you ask for. Would definitely return and recommend to my friends. Thanks for a great meal.
Our first visit to Pebbles in Varney, very impressed. Lovely, clean environment. The employees were very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend this restaurant to others. My husband and I will be stopping in during motorcycle season. One suggestion would be gluten free options other then salads and veggies. Thanks.
Made a last minute reservation., ot there early and our table was ready. The food was fresh hot and delicious. This was our first time there but it won't be our last.
Our first visit there. An outstanding place to eat and we will certainly return with friends and family.
Friendly, supportive, attentive waitress. Superb food, tasty, hot, appetizing. Wide selection of dishes to appeal to many tastes. Clean, attractive, environment, comfortable seating.
This was our first visit to Pebbles and it will not be our last. It was a wonderful experience and we left having had a most satisfying Valentine's Day meal. And ... the fudge!!!!!
Great spot to meet- lots of space for larger gatherings -- Great food
Birthday Party! With a few guests in our party with gluten free diets (celiacs) I wished there would have been a few gluten free pies/cakes/cheesecakes for them to enjoy..
Had a birthday party at pebbles this past weekend everyone raves about it. Very enjoyable experience. Will go back and highly recommend it.
Selection of Food & quality of Food & Service was 5/5!!
My Family & I have dined there several times and it's always been an excellent experience!!!
Definitely would recommend restaurant to anyone!!!
We love Pebbles every time we go. It is now my daughter's favourite restaurant :)
I really think the buffet is overpriced for this area and for what you get.
Very lovely place! Definitely going back! Great service, food and people
We went to Pebbles for the first time on Tuesday. The food was good and hot. The buffet was clean and they put fresh food out multiple times while we were there.
Their grill section was amazing and so were their fries! Fries like that are almost impossible to get in a restaurant in Canada in my experience.
My only complain was about the desserts. I have a nut allergy and I didn't feel comfortable eating the yummy looking pies and squares because of how close they were together with ones that obviously had nuts. Maybe they could consider having a separate small place for nut free desserts.
Pebbles was definitely worth the drive for us on a snowy New Year's Eve night. I've already started recommending the drive to people for a great meal. Definitely worth the money having so many choices and the ability to go for seconds and thirds if one wants to. We'll be back again one day.
Absolutely delicious home made buffet & you need to wear stretchy pants for sure. You won't be disappointed!
Pebbles is a great spot to bring people to and the food is great. Highly recommend it for our area!
Excellent food and service, will definitely be back
Food was excellent and there was a lot to choose from. We went for a Christmas staff party and because it was a Tuesday evening we were able to sit and visit with everyone afterwards. Thank you for allowing us to dine at your establishment.
We always enjoy eating and having fellowship with our family and friends at Pebbles.
Great modern, clean and spacious restaurant.
A little pricey for the area but the food is great.
My family and I very much enjoyed our experience at Pebbles. The server was very pleasant. Everyone enjoyed the buffet.
We will certainly be back.
Great food with lots of choices! There are not many places offering free Birthday meals and getting a senior discount is appreciated. We will be definitely return for another meal and share this experience with others.
It was the second time there but first since the renovations.Everything was great lots of room at the table and the same awesome food.Can't wait until next year for our annual trip to enjoy Pebbles again.
Amazing food as always. Keep up the good work. Will be back soon.
Great buffet.. lots to choose from.. their broasted chicken very good. Good dressing. They have a grill for sausages, hamburger, pork chop .. three types of soup ..
dessert heaven for pies..
The restaurant is clean and up to date.
They have an entrance / exit that has jams , syrups, fudge and nick nacks to choose from.
Requires a return visit to appreciate all the good food
Food was ok.
Amazing food, great atmosphere, very clean, reasonable priced.
Would defiantly go back any day.
Absolutely amazing! great food and selection. the desserts were amazing! very friendly staff and the owner was cooking too. very personable. Will definitely go there again !
Awesome selection of food on the buffet. Something for everyone. Very clean throughout the restaurant.
Our experience at Pebbles was great. The service was excellent and there was a good variety of food on the buffet.
My only suggestion, eliminate the plastic straws.
We found the vegetables to be a bit overcooked, and a bit bland. The soup was very good, as was the salad bar and the desert offerings. The grill was well-stocked, as were the pickles and sauces. As buffets go, the price was very good, and we definitely had enough to eat. The restaurant was quiet, and the music was not intrusive into our conversation.
Food was excellent,The open table was easy to use. My table was ready for the time we selected
My only disappoint was the handicap space were taken by people who were not handicapped
But this happens every were
We enjoyed our meal !
Everything was new and clean! Food was delicious and tasty!
Washrooms were very clean with soap and tissue and paper towels!
Lots of room to move from our table to the serving tables!
All in all everything was very good!
We will definitely be returning for another delicious meal!
We will also tell our friends and relatives about this wonderful restaurant!
Service was good. Food was great! Would go back again.
Best buffet we have found in years. Makes Crossroads and Concordia in Kitchener look BAD. Keep up the good work we will be back. It is worth the drive.

If I use regular oil (non synthetic) how often should I change my engine oil?

To change oil that means renewing your car from carbon deposits.ReplyDelete

Carbon deposits are not removed when you do an oil change. Carbon deposits occur in the intake system, fuel injectors, and can accumulate inside the combustion cylinders.ReplyDelete
To remove carbon deposits you need to do a fuel injection cleaning.

I simply wanted to appreciate you yet again. I am not sure what I would have used without the type of information shared by you directly on such a subject. This was a very alarming setting in my view, however , spending time with a skilled mode you handled that made me to cry for fulfillment. I am just happy for this information and thus hope you are aware of a great job you are doing teaching most people using a blog. I know that you've never got to know all of us.ReplyDelete
