DJ /rupture Releases Mixtape Inspired by the Film The Act of Killing
By Evan Minsker on April 28, 2014 at 3:16 p.m. EDT
DJ /rupture, Filastine, Nova Ruth: Stage Boundary Songs
The Act of Killing is a 2012 Oscar-nominated documentary by Joshua Oppenheimer. It shows death squad leaders-turned-paramilitary officials in Indonesia enthusiastically, theatrically re-enacting the mass murders they committed in the 1960s. Oppenheimer's onetime collaborator, DJ /rupture, aka Jace Clayton, has produced a "musical response" to the film: a mixtape called Stage Boundary Songs. Listen above and find the tracklist below.
DJ /rupture to Release New Album as Jace Clayton
By Evan Minsker on January 31, 2013 at 12:00 p.m. EST
Jace Clayton: "Evil Nigger" (excerpt)
Jace Clayton is best known as DJ /rupture, but his new album, The Julius Eastman Memory Depot, is not a DJ /rupture album. It's a Jace Clayton album, and rather than drawing from a multitude of genres and sounds like he normally does as DJ /rupture, on this album, he focuses only on Julius Eastman-- the late gay African American composer, pianist, vocalist, and dancer. It's out March 26 via New Amsterdam, and you can stream the first three minutes of the album above.

DJ /rupture, Prince Rama, and others played the Directions in Music party at Brooklyn's 285 Kent on Friday. Our photographer Erez Avissar was there, and also DJ'ed.

James Franco Teams With DJ /rupture for New EP
By Tom Breihan on June 7, 2011 at 2:15 p.m. EDT
Kalup and Franco is the duo of Kalup Linzy, a video/performance artist who frequently performs in drag, and James Franco, an Oscar-nominated movie star (127 Hours, Spider-Man) who has quickly become one of Hollywood's biggest weirdos. The partnership formed after Franco invited Linzy to perform on "General Hospital" during Franco's stint on the soap opera, and they've since become a performance duo and a musical act. On July 12, they'll release their debut EP Turn It Up on Dutty Artz, the label co-founded by the globe-trotting, genre-mashing theorist DJ /rupture.
News in Brief: DJ /rupture's Beyond Digital, These Are Powers, Kill Rock Stars, Snowball Festival
By Tom Breihan on February 18, 2011 at 11:30 a.m. EST

--DJ /rupture is one of a group of artists working on a project called "Beyond Digital: Morocco", a research and production project that aims to study the effects of technology on Moroccan youth. The group hopes to spend a month on location in Morocco making videos, hosting workshops, and performing. They've started a campaign to fund it through Kickstarter. (Full disclosure: Pitchfork president Chris Kaskie is an investor in Kickstarter.)
-- Chicago/Brooklyn art-punk outfit These Are Powers have broken up. They played their final show on February 5 at a tribute to the late promoter Ariel Panero, as the Dead Oceans website reports.
-- Kill Rock Stars has signed two new bands: Hazy Brooklyn synth-rock crew Milagres and Winnipeg indie-pop noisemakers Boats. KRS will release the new Boats album Cannonballs, Cannonballs on March 1.
-- The Snowball Music Festival comes to Vail Valley, Colorado March 4-6, and its lineup features the Flaming Lips, Diplo, Local Natives, Twin Shadow, Baths, Brother Ali, Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros, Classixx, Lord Huron, Onra, and Candy Claws, as well as a bunch of stuff like Bassnectar and Afroman.
Hear a New Mix From DJ /rupture
By Tom Breihan on January 14, 2011 at 4:40 p.m. EST
Photo by Tim Kiernan
DJ /rupture is one of electronic music's great boundary smashers, a guy who routinely chops up tracks from around the world into a singular party-starting whole. /rupture collaborated with writer Sharifa Rhodes-Pitts on Harlem Is Nowhere, a mix for Domus magazine that focuses on music from Harlem, but never stands still for long. The mix includes tracks from Das Racist, Gil Scott-Heron, Shabazz Palaces, and plenty of others, and it shares its name with Rhodes-Pitts' new book. Download the mix from Domus, via the Fader.
Hear DJ /rupture's Remix of Yeasayer's "Ambling Alp"
By Tom Breihan on November 5, 2009 at 6:10 p.m. EST
Photo by Guy Aroch
"Ambling Alp" is the dizzy first single from Odd Blood, the forthcoming sophomore album from Brooklyn psychsters Yeasayer. Even before DJ /rupture got his hands on it, the track was pretty much a headfuck, with jittery beats and reggae one-drops and horn stabs replacing the band's old guitar rumble. But DJ /rupture pushes the track even further out into the ether, slathering it in dubby bass and chopping the vocals all to hell. You might want to spend some time with this one.
It's streaming over on Stereogum.
WTF: "90210" Hearts DJ /rupture
By Tom Breihan on September 30, 2009 at 1:45 p.m. EDT
Photo by Sanchez and Kitahara
It's one thing to hear the National or Phoenix in the background on "Gossip Girl" or whatever. It's another thing entirely when a character on the CW's "90210" reboot reps for Pitchfork's favorite experimental academic activist sound scientist, DJ /rupture. And yet, that's exactly what happened on last night's episode of the primetime teen soap, making for a WTF DVR-rewind moment par excellence.
As the Tripwire points out, the character Dixon Wilson (played by Tristan Wilds, who will always have a place in my heart after he played budding stick-up kid Michael on "The Wire") attempts to tell his friends about how he and his girlfriend are totally perfect for each other: "Did I tell you guys we both like /DJ Rupture?"

Wilmington Area CROP Hunger Walk
Time: Now
Location: Where you are
Goal: $10,000
- tsmarkley/Bigstock.com
The Wilmington Area CROP Hunger Walk is taking a brief break in 2015, but don't worry. We won't let that stop our fight against worldwide hunger. Even though we won't physically be coming together this year, we think we can join together to raise $10,000 by December 31.
But we need your help.
Share this link – www.crophungerwalk.org/wilmingtonnc – with your organization, share your passion to end hunger, and let's see the kind of difference we can make when we "walk" alongside one another. As in years past, 25% of funds raised through the website with be returned to support the local efforts of NourishNC.
For anyone who would like to walk together this fall, the Shallotte CROP Hunger Walk is more than happy to host any walkers who would like to participate with them on November 1st!
And finally, if you or your organization would like to help with 2016 Walk planning, contact Mary Catherine Hinds, email@example.com for more information.
Ending hunger, one link at a time.

VIEWS: 19 PAGES: 4 CATEGORY: Business POSTED ON: 10/13/2009 Public Domain
February 27, 2009 SENIORITY LIST The BTA has filed a grievance regarding the late appearance of the Seniority List, the mul- tiple copies sent to schools, and the many inaccuracies in qualifications. On the front page of the list, Bonda Bitzer, Human Resources Director has included the following note: "Please check the list carefully and report any errors or omissions to Human Resources. Requests for review of qualifications should include supporting documentation. Please note that all chal- lenges to the seniority list must be made in writing and must be received by Human Resources by 4:00 p.m. on January 30, 2009." Please note that the Human Resources Department is continuing to receive appeals regarding the list. If you have not checked the list yet (with pink cover), it is important that do so IMMEDIATELY and email Bonda at firstname.lastname@example.com to appeal any #111 discrepancies in your years of service or qualifications. Please also send your appeals to our Grievance Coordinator, James Sanyshyn, at email@example.com. HR has also circulated a memo dated February 12, 2009, to clarify some of the issues. MARIANNE NEILL, President and RICHARD STORCH , Vice-President SB-1 UPDATE At this point, BCTF lawyers are recommending we withdraw our grievance regarding SB1 without prejudice, as the arbitration ruling is binding. The Burnaby Board of Education has tried negotiating with Simon Fraser University for recognition of credits from the Graduate Diploma towards a Master's Degree, but has made little progress. The BTA will pursue with the Board the possibility of transfer recognition of credits to other institutions. Please en- sure that if you have a Master's Degree, a copy of your TQS card is in your file at the Board Office. There have been some problems lately with payroll and category classifica- tion. BC POVERTY REDUCTION REPORT BTA Executive Council voted to sign the BC Poverty Reduction Report. To sign as an individual, go to http://bcpovertyreduction.ca/?petition- confirm=0e7e6c6b10c7b31d DUTY TO ACCOMMODATE Further to the last Presidents' Report, the Board is not entitled to prognostic or diagnostic information for Board medical forms. They are entitled to know general impressions of an illness - an example would be "recurring and chronic condition" rather than disease or affliction. While there is a requirement to indicate the expected duration of leave, there is no need to prove the details of the prognosis. If you are filling out a medical form and have questions, contact the BTA Office (604-294-8141. NEW WESTMINSTER DISTRICT LABOUR COUNCIL The New Westminster District Labour Council Executive wrote a letter to the School Trustees and Superintendents in our region, the Minister of Education and the Opposition Critic supporting the BCTF's position on Foundation Skills Assessment Tests. FSAs Clarification of the distinction between preparation for administration of the test, and prepa- ration for the test: Preparation for the administration of the FSA means those activities involved in the administration of the test - eg. log in, pen numbers, booklets. Practice tests are preparation for the test and have nothing to do with the actual administration. The union will file grievances if teachers have been directed to administer practice tests. DR. CHARLES BINGHAM ON "YOUR EDUCATION MATTERS" You may recall that Dr. Charles Bingham, SFU, spoke on a panel about the FSA at the BCTF summer conference last year. Mike Zlotnik is currently the President of the Charter for Public Education Network, and was the Director of the BCTF Professional Development Division for many years Bingham and Zlotnik are featured on 'Your Education Matters'. You will be able to view the episode online at www.youreducationmatters.ca . BCTF TV ADS RUNNING FROM JANUARY 12 TO FEBRUARY 12 1. LATEST BCTF TELEVISION AD The latest BCTF television ad aired on channels through the province from Monday, January 12th to February 12th. the ads were also shown on ethnic TV channels. 2. PRINT ADS UNDER WAY As previously reported, the Federation sponsored print ads on the FSA in community papers, major dailies, commuter papers, and ethnic papers for last week and this week. The ad is designed to highlight teachers' opposition to the FSA, connect funding, class size and class composition with the FSA campaign, and encourage interested parents and public to talk to teachers about the issues. 3. FSA DVD The DVD "The FSA. Failing our Students", for use in presentations to parents, trustees, and the public is being couriered to locals early this week. It will also be posted to http:// www.bctf.ca/fsa.aspx on Tuesday, so you will be able to view it online and use it in this format, if necessary. 4. A REMINDER Please be aware that Federation ads and campaign materials often use images for which the BCTF has purchased the use and committed to specific conditions under which they will be used. For example, licensing agreements may disal- low the use of the images on websites, specify a limit to the number of copies, or prevent modification of the image. DEFINITION OF STRIKE On February 4, 2009 the BCTF received a ruling from the B.C. Court of Appeal on the constitutionality of the definition of strike in the Labour Relations Code. The decision is available on-line at: http://www.courts.gov.bc.ca/jdb-txt/ CA/09/00/2009BCCA0039.htm The BCTF and the HEU had challenged the definition of strike as being overly broad by including "political protests". They argued that this broad definition infringes the guarantee of freedom of expression in s. 2(b) of the Charter and is not saved under s. 1 as a reasonable limit in a free and democratic society. MEDIA AWARENESS NETWORK MARKS SAFER INTERNET DAY WITH NEW TOOLS TO ADDRESS CYBERBULLYING IN CANADIAN CLASSROOMS Ottawa, February 10, 2009 – Media Awareness Network (MNet) today launched the classroom resource Cyberbullying: Encouraging Ethical Online Behaviour to meet the growing need for educational materials that address the issue of cyberbullying in Canadian schools. The launch coincides with Safer Internet Day—an international event to promote safe and responsible use of online technology and mobile phones among children and young people. The resource, developed with funding from the Government of Canada, comprises a series of bilingual lessons intended to support and enhance school-based anti-bullying and empathy-building programs. The lessons are available on MNet's website at www.media-awareness.ca/english/resources/educational/lessons/cyberbullying.cfm.

Early bird rates and online registration are now open. Vancouver Island University is pleased to host the 2009 Child and the Book International Graduate Student Conference in Nanaimo, B.C., Canada from May 1-3, 2009.

See website for more details. RE: MAKING SPACE RESOURCE This is a Ministry of Education approved resource. The guide was released officially last fall, and can be found on-line at http://www.bced.gov.bc.ca/irp/program_delivery/ss.htm It has already been released to schools across the province. RE: OPPOSITION BY PASTORS IN SD #52 As confirmed by the Supreme Court of Canada in 2002 (Chamberlain et al. vs. Surrey School District No. 36), the Char- ter and the requirement in the School Act are for the public school system to be conducted on a strictly secular basis. The school system's mandate under the School Act is to provide a nurturing and validating learning experience for all children regardless of the types of families they come from. Teachers who require ideas on how to respond to religious opposition to anti-homophobia education materials are encouraged to log onto the BCTF webpage at http:// www.bctf.ca/SocialJustice.aspx?id=6106. Scroll down to the resources section on the above webpage to find how to handle: Objections to Anti-homophobia Curriculum in Schools. When there is a tension between the onus on inclusion, and the beliefs of families at home, the onus on inclusion prevails under the law.

Tennessee Consumer Decision Judging Guide Sunglasses If it's a bright, clear day outside, you may instinctively reach for your sunglasses, when you head outside. Choosing sunglasses for eye protection allows a wide range of choice. Knowing what features are available will help in finding the best pair of sunglasses for the conditions in which they will be worn. There are four things that a good pair of sunglasses should do for you: 1. Sunglasses provide protection from ultraviolet rays in sunlight. Ultraviolet (UV) light damages the cornea and the retina. 2. Sunglasses provide protection from intense light. When the eye receives too much light, it naturally closes the iris. Once it has closed the iris as far as it can, the next step is squinting. The result of too much light is damage to the retina. A good set of sunglasses can block light from entering the eyes thereby avoiding damage. 3. Sunglasses provide protection from glare. Water and some surfaces can reflect a great deal of light. These reflected spots can hide objects and be distracting, especially to drivers. 4. Sunglasses eliminate specific frequencies of light. Certain frequencies of light can blur vision and others can enhance contrast. Choosing the right color sunglasses enables them to work better in certain situations. Light Much of the concern over eye health involves the shorter wavelengths, called ultraviolet (UV) light. UV light is divided into two categories- (1) shorter wavelengths are called UVB, longer wavelengths are called UVA. Shorter waves have been found to cause more eye damage than longer waves. The main protection offered by sunglasses is filtering out these UV rays. The dark color of the lenses does not necessarily mean the sunglasses will filter out the UV rays. Although sunglasses offer some protection, they do not offer complete protection. Some styles of frames do not prevent unfiltered rays from reaching the eyes from the sides, top, and/or bottom of the glasses. Sunglasses also provide some protection from dust and particles in the air. It is more important for persons with light colored eyes to wear sunglasses for protection than persons with dark eyes. The lighter the eye the more sensitive to direct light. When we talk about light in reference to sunglasses, three types of light are important. 1. Direct Light—direct light is light that goes straight from the light source (like the sun) to your eyes. Too much direct light can wash out the details of your surroundings and make it almost painful to try to focus your vision on anything. 2. Reflected Light—Reflected light, usually in the form of glare, is light that has bounced off a reflective object to enter your eyes. Just like direct light, strong reflected light can make it difficult to perceive the details or directly view an object. Snow, water, glass, and white sand are all good reflectors. 3. Ambient Light—Ambient light is light that has bounced and scattered in many directions so that it does not seem to have a specific source. A good example of ambient light is the glow in the sky around a major city. It would be very hard to identify a single source of light for that glow. Ambient light is how you are able to see when there is no direct source of light. Lens Colors The color of the tint determines the parts of the light spectrum that are absorbed by the lenses. Color doesn't affect UV blocking. Different colors produce specific results: • Gray—Gray tints are great all-purpose tints that reduce the overall amount of brightness with the least amount of color distortion. Gray lenses offer good protection against glare, making them a good choice for driving and general use. • Yellow or gold—Yellow or gold tints reduce the amount of blue light while allowing a larger percentage of other frequencies through. Since blue light tends to bounce and scatter off a lot of things, it can create a kind of glare known as blue haze. The yellow tint virtually eliminates the blue part of the spectrum and has the effect of making everything bright and sharp. That's why snow glasses are usually yellow. This tint really distorts color perception, which makes it inappropriate for any activity that relies on accurate color. • Amber and brown—Amber and brownish tints are also good general purpose tints. They have the added benefit of reducing glare and have molecules that absorb higher frequency colors, such as blue, in addition to UV rays. There has been research that suggest that near-UV light frequencies such as blue and violet can contribute to the formation of cataracts over time. • Green—Green tints on lenses filter some blue light and reduce glare. Because green tints offer the highest contrast and greatest visual acuity of any tint, they are very popular. • Purple and rose—Purple and rose tints offer the best contrast of objects against a green or blue background. They make a good choice for hunting or water skiing. Lens color can be a dye in the lens or a coating on the lens. Color on coated lenses is more likely than dyed lenses to scratch or wear off. Coated lenses can be protected by the manufacturer through use of scratch –resistant layers. Overall dyed lenses retain color longer. Darkness of a lens determines how much visible light will be let in. If glasses are to be worn in very bright conditions such as for water sports a darker lens is more practical. For everyday wear, a medium to light lens is usually sufficient and may be more versatile. The main point is to match the amount of tint to the purpose for which the glasses will be used. Types of Lenses • Plain—Plain lenses are uniformly tinted throughout the lens and come in lots of different colors. The darkness of the lens has nothing to do with how well it blocks UV light, but it will make a difference in how much visible light gets seen. This may be important for eye comfort during prolonged time in bright sunlight. • Single gradient—Single gradient lenses are tinted darker at the top than at the bottom. They may be useful for tasks like driving, where the road is bright but the dashboard is dark. They are useful for places like a beach, where light is reflected up from the sand. The difference in tint causes lighting to change as the wearer's head moves, which may be annoying to some wearers. • Double gradient– Double gradient lenses are tinted darker at the top and bottom, but lighter in the center. These are designed for sports such as sailing, skiing, and tennis, where light comes in from above and is also reflected from below, but the center of vision has less light coming in. There are not appropriate for driving, since they darken visibility of the dashboard controls. Like single gradient lenses, the difference in tint may be annoying to wearers. • Polarizing—Polarizing lenses are specifically designed to reduce reflected glare, such as sunlight bouncing off water or pavement. This makes them especially suited to water sports and driving. • Photosensitive– Photosensitive lenses darken and lighten in response to the amount of available light. These lenses have millions of molecules of substances, such as silver chloride or silver halide, embedded in them. Photosensitive lenses darken more quickly than they lighten. They also do not darken as quickly in hot weather as in cold. They will not darken much while driving, since the car shades out much of the direct UV light to which the lenses respond. Lenses that start out with a dark tint will be darker when they change tint. Some wearers may be bothered by the length of time the lenses take to change. In addition, some lenses "wear out" and fail to darken or lighten after a period of time • Flash– Flash lenses have a mirror like finish on one side of the lens. It may be silver, colored, or iridescent. The coatings add more to appearance than usefulness and can scratch easily. • Polarized—Polarized filters are most commonly made of a chemical film applied to a transparent plastic or glass surface. When applied uniformly to the lens, the molecules create a microscopic filter that absorbs any light matching their alignment. Most of the glare that causes you to wear sunglasses comes from horizontal surfaces. When light strikes a surface, the reflected waves are polarized to match the angle of that surface. So, a highly reflective horizontal surface, such as a lake, will produce a lot of horizontally polarized light. Lens Material There are several types of lens material. CR-39 is a plastic made from hard resin that meets optical quality standards. Polycarbonate is a synthetic plastic material that has great strength and is very lightweight. These lenses tend to be lighter and are more impact-resistant. Glass lenses are heavier but are more resistant to scratches. Quality Optical-quality polycarbonate and glass lenses are free of distortions, such as blemishes or waves, and have evenly distributed color across each lens. For most purposes, like going to the beach or driving, look for a tint that absorbs or blocks 70% to 90% of light. Tints that offer less than 60% blockage are mainly good for fashion since they offer only mild protection. Anti-reflective, waterproof, mirror and scratch-resistant coatings improve the functionality of the sunglasses but also add coast. Many of the more expensive sunglasses use Specific technologies including polarization, tinting and anti-reflective coatings to achieve increased clarity, better protection, higher contrast or to block certain types of light. Frames Normal frames similar to prescription eyeglass frames filter the light coming through the lenses but offer no protection from ambient light, direct light and glare from other angles. Wrap-around frames, larger lenses and special sidereal attachments can keep this extra light from your eyes. The material used to make the frames is often a huge factor in cost and durability. Most inexpensive sunglasses use simple plastic or wire frames, while name-brand sunglasses use high-strength, light-weight composite or metal frames. Also, the better sunglasses usually have features like tension springs that connect the arms to the face instead of just screws. Labeling The American National Standards Institute (ANSI), in cooperation with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the Sunglass Association of America, has set up a voluntary labeling system for sunglasses. Manufacturers may choose whether or not they wish to use the labeling system. Sunglasses are regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as medical devices. Recommended standards include: • Sunglasses must block 99% of UVB light. A UVB-blocking sunglass is adequate to protect eyes in moderately bright sunlight like that found in low-altitude, urban areas. • A UV-blocking sunglass blocks 99% of both UVA and UVB. A UV-blocking sunglass is adequate protection in very bright sunlight like that found in low- altitude snow areas and beaches. Such sunglasses reduce glare and increase visual comfort. The lenses should allow you to recognize traffic signals accurately. • To protect eyes during prolonged daily use in extremely bright sunlight, like high-elevation snow areas and equatorial sand beaches, a UV-blocking sunglass should block 92 to 97% of visible light and have side shields. Goggles are also acceptable. Side shields are needed in extremely bright sunlight to prevent UV rays and light from being reflected into the eyes. These sunglasses limit a drivers ability to accurately recognize traffic signals. Side shields should not be worn when driving because they eliminate peripheral vision. • The only medical claims allowed on sunglasses are that they prevent cataracts and photo keratitis. Tips Remember that the most important protection factor by far has to do with how often you actually choose to wear your sunglasses. So you need to consider ALL the factors that will influence your desire to keep them on your face. • It is essential to understand what "the right choice" means. It's actually very simple. The "best" sunglass is the one which you will actually WANT to wear most of the time when outdoors, especially in the sun. • Don't underestimate the importance of style. How we see ourselves and how we seek to enhance our appearance is for many the most important factor in maximizing actual use. • Fit and comfort are crucial. Take time to try on sunglasses and consider how they feel. They should be comfortable and secure. Just like trying a new pair of shoes, take the time to fully experience the fit. Remember, a high performing UV blocking lens does not protect if it's on the dashboard, in your purse, or slipping down your nose. • Don't forget to look through the lenses and let your eyes be the judge of how well you can see. If possible step outside and look at both light and dark areas. You want a lens that is dark enough to protect against glare and be comfortable in bright light, yet not so dark that it compromises your vision in low level light situations. • Remember, a major purpose of wearing sunglasses is glare reduction in normal sunlight activity. Sunglass lenses are impact resistant as required by FDA but they are not shatterproof. Kids Children may not be as interested as adults are in the fashion aspect of sunglasses. But because kids spend much more time than most adults do outdoors and in direct sunlight, UV protection for the eyes is extra important. In fact, may experts believe our eyes get 80% of their total lifetime exposure to the sun's UV rays by age 18. Since excessive lifetime exposure to UV radiation has been linked to the development of cataracts and other eye problems, it's never too early for kids to begin wearing good quality sunglasses outdoors.

Cumbrian man fell to his death trying to fix TV dish
Last updated at 11:33, Tuesday, 17 April 2012
A 46-year-old man died after falling 30ft when he tried to fix his satellite dish in strong winds.
Stephen Smith had been annoyed by the sound of a cable from the dish flapping about in strong winds, blurring his TV picture, when he decided to go up onto the flat roof of his home to fasten it down.
But the borrowed aluminium ladder he used wasn't long enough and it had no grip on the slippery upvc fascia board that he had leaned it against, an inquest heard.
Mr Smith, from Cleator Moor, fell 30ft onto the concrete path surrounding his house at Keir Hardie Avenue, and suffered serious injuries.
He was left with multiple fractures of his ribs, his pelvis and an injury to his stomach, plus the trauma caused a cardiac arrest.
Doctors said that because of the extent of his injuries, an underlying heart condition and diabetes, chances of survival were very slim and nothing more could have been done for him at the scene. He died on the way to hospital.
Coroner David Roberts recorded a verdict of death by accident after hearing evidence from neighbour Eamonn Rush, a former roofer, who Mr Smith had asked to 'foot the ladder' and hold it steady while he did the job on the roof.
Mr Smith's mother, Marjorie Chambers, of Dent Place, Cleator Moor, said her son was a quiet but determined character who, when he set his mind on doing something, would do it.
"We all told him not to go up there, but he wouldn't be dissuaded," she said.
"If I'd been there to stop him at the time, he would have just waited till I'd gone and then gone up."
Mr Rush said Mr Smith had been up on the roof before, to clear a bird's nest from a vent, but on the morning of December 9 last year, when he climbed the almost fully extended ladder, with a rucksack of tools on his back, the accident had happened. When he got to the top and tried to get onto the roof, the ladder slipped away to the right.
"He put his weight on the left to try and counter balance but the weight on his foot pushed the ladder away, it just went and he came straight down. I couldn't hold it."
Mr Rush said he had suggested to Mr Smith it was not a good idea to go up, but Mr Smith had insisted it would be okay.
"In hindsight I should have said more, but Stephen said he thought it would be all right," said Mr Rush.
Mr Smith, who was not working at the time, had previously had been a groundsman for 10 years at St Mary's Church, Cleator.
He was unmarried but had a long-term relationship with Christine Anderson and was 'like a dad' to her children.
His mother Marjorie paid tribute to her son saying: "Stephen was such a good person. He did things for people and gave money to animal welfare and some of his friends said he always remembered their children's birthdays."

The Futurist
Totem Poll Launched! Presented within Come Out Children's Festival 2015.
Proudly, today, we launched a self initiated project, supported by Come Out Children's festival 2015 — Totem Poll.
Totem Poll – a fun, magical and meaningful interactive art project
Our exciting new project Totem Poll will have it's world premiere at the 2015 Come Out Children's Festival in Adelaide. Especially created for young people between the ages of 8 – 12. We hope that it will be enjoyed by people of all ages.
All channels, front-office, mid-office and back-office should be aligned with strategically developed customer experience journeys. This concept is core to the formation of our Digital Capability Reference Model.
Introducing the Digital Capability Reference Model
I first came across Internet technology in the mid 1990s as my team - Interactive marketing - started to see the potential of the Internet as an unprecedentedly effective channel for interactive marketing and even sales. These days we are inundated with digital technologies. If we can apply some of those digital trends to all operational areas, I see significant potential for further sell-side improvements.
Freeranger Favourites – Roald Dahl
Though there were so many takeaways and lessons in Roald Dahl's books there was one main thing that I learned. Roald Dahl taught me the importance of being a good person. From Charlie Bucket being filtered out from the avalanche of terrible children, to Matilda surviving her horrid family and the militant Miss Trunchbull, Roald Dahl's books were full of children that bucked the trend and strove for goodness.
Freeranger Favourites – Dr. Seuss
Dr Seuss (real name Theo Geisel) was the author of popular children's books The Lorax, Fox in Socks, How the Grinch Stole Christmas and 43 more you've probably read. He really was a doctor, holding a PhD in English Literature.
The ABCs of hashtags
This weekend is the anniversary of a milestone in social media, the first ever hashtag use on Twitter. The hashtag started off on Twitter in 2007, and has since spread over Instagram, YouTube, Google+, Facebook and more. Proper hashtag usage can help you get substantially more engagement on your tweets, meaning more new followers, more replies and more exposure.
What happened in your MY:24?
Sometimes change is gradual, taking months or even years. And sometimes, suddenly, an event can shift your direction within 24 hours. It's those quick experiences that make the stories of TV series MY:24. We built a MY:24 app that facilitates people to document their own life-changing story.
Project: Maybe Mae / Bread & Bone
Peel Street has seen an explosion of new venues, restaurants and bars along its narrow length. The latest crop to open includes sister venues – small bar Maybe Mae and Bread & Bone Wood Grill.
In an ultimate upstairs/downstairs combination, the two venues provide intimate spaces to enjoy a premium quaff and wood grill cuisine, connected by a secret tunnel taking the love through to Leigh Street.
We created identities for Maybe Mae and Bread & Bone, representing their respective specialities while making sure the relationship was maintained between the two venues.
Pop in soon to enjoy somethin' sizzling – we'll see you there.

Former pro football player, Marco Island resident Dave Rice returns home after motorcycle crash
MARCO ISLAND - Five days after being injured in a motorcycle accident Dave Rice, a member of the American Football Association Hall of Fame, returned home to Marco Island on Monday.
Rice was in good spirits on Tuesday as he got acclimated to living on the first floor of his multilevel house with the help of walkers, an electric chair and other gadgets.
The 70-year-old prolific community volunteer wasn't wearing a helmet. Although he said he is "old enough to know better," he said the four stitches in his head marked the least of his injuries. The worst was a broken right hip, he said.
"My generation, we didn't have helmets," Rice said.
The accident occurred on Thursday morning as he was heading home after a short island ride.
Marco Island police reported that Alyssa Sara Drake, 22, of North Naples, was the driver who cut Rice off at a four-way stop at the intersection of Waikiki Court and North Barfield Drive.
Rather than hit the car head-on, Rice said he dumped the right side of the bike into the car while going about 25 miles per hour.
"My left side is in pretty good shape. The right side you can keep," Rice said.
He'll be back to riding as soon as he heals, which he anticipates may be several months for the hip injury.
A fractured tibia, or broken shin, an injured right knee with several metal staples in it and road rash were among his other injuries.
Police reported that Drake failed to yield the right of way and cited her with careless driving after two witnesses reported she had cut Rice off in traffic.
"As I'm laying on the road screaming for mercy, I'm sure that was the hardest thing for (her)," Rice said.
Rice was airlifted to the trauma center at Lee Memorial Hospital in Fort Myers on Thursday, underwent surgeries on Friday and was released on Monday evening.
In addition to being a hall of fame football player and executive, Rice is a leader with the Marco Island Art League Center for the Arts.
Someone had picked on Rice for wearing a helmet when he played football and yet not wearing one on his bike, Rice said. "You can't argue with that logic," he added.

Floyd Mayweather And T.I. Brawl It Out In Las Vegas RestaurantBy: Galen Velonis - May 25, 2014
Floyd Mayweather makes his living from getting into fights as a boxer, but this time he got in one for free.
The scene? Fat Burger of Las Vegas. The opponent? T.I., the rapper. TMZ reported that T.I. "started jawing at Floyd" to which Mayweather replied "control yo' bitch." The rest could be seen on the Instagram video below. By the time Las Vegas Police Department showed up, both were gone. A Fatburger employee apparently was hurt in the fight but refused to answer any questions or even accept medical help. " In other words…" TMZ said, "no snitching".
According to E! News, the fight concerned T.I.'s wife, Tameka "Tiny" Harris, who was spending a lot of time with Mayweather and his team. Mayweather has been in Las Vegas for his daughter Iyanna's birthday at the MGM Grand.
Tiny and Iyanna shared their time together with an Instagram picture:
DJ Jay Bling apparently witnessed to the event, and he has been acting as a go between for Mayweather and the public:

Please enter a valid mileage
By KBB.com Editors
KBB Expert Rating: 8.4
While many cars have longevity, few have consistently shone as brightly as the BMW 5 Series. The 2014 5 Series is no exception, continuing to grow and improve its trade while the competition scrambles to catch up to the previous year's updates and improvements. The BMW 5 Series for 2014 represents one of the most complete luxury car lines in the industry, offering a base turbocharged sedan, a powerhouse high-performance M version, diesel-powered and V8 models, a hybrid and a somewhat controversially styled Grand Touring wagon/SUV. Rear-wheel drive (RWD) and all-wheel drive (AWD) versions expand your 5 Series choices even further. You won't find a more complete lineup, not from Lexus or Infiniti or Audi or Cadillac, although the Mercedes-Benz E-Class comes closest.
If you like your luxury, performance and technology delved out in equal parts, the 2014 BMW 5 Series won't disappoint. Contrary to popular belief, the manual transmission is not dead and its presence in the 535i and M5 is another reason true enthusiasts flock to this car.
If you're the type who doesn't like complexities, either in your car or its pricing structure, the BMW 5 Series will likely have you seeing red. And while a fully-loaded Lexus, Acura or Infiniti remains sensibly priced, a decked out 550i can approach six figures.
out of 31Fuel Economy
out of 30Horsepower
A diesel sedan is added, while new standard features include xenon adaptive headlights, navigation and BMW Apps. New options include adaptive LED headlights, a rear-seat entertainment system and two new packages: Luxury and Modern. The 550i gains 45 horsepower, but loses its manual transmission.
Driving Impressions Whether powered by its rear wheels or all four, the 2014 BMW 5 Series earns its accolades as one of the best driving, best handling cars in the world. BMW's...... AWD provides year-round piece of mind, a bonus long denied previous generations powered solely by their rear wheels. Power is in abundant supply regardless of trim. From the base 528i's turbocharged-4 to the twin-turbochargers boosting the diesel and V8 models, there is a 5 Series to match just about every demand and price range – providing your price range starts above $50K. With a 0-60-mph time of 6.2 seconds, the 528i's performance belies its 4-cylinder powerplant, although its 34-mpg fuel economy rating seems right in line. That said, the sweet spot is probably where the 5 Series began, with a healthy turbo-6 (535i) propelling you at triple-digit speeds (where allowed).
The 2014 BMW 5 Series sedan is available with an integral active-steering system that, depending on vehicle speed, aims the rear wheels in the same or opposite direction of the front wheels for improved handling in both low- and high-speed driving conditions.
Designed for those who wish to squeeze every ounce of performance from their 5 Series sedan, the M Sport Package ups the ante with a sport suspension, lightweight 18-inch alloy wheels and a higher electronically limited top speed.
The 5's interior space has grown slightly over the years, while the overall impression has grown almost exponentially. Already a strong suit, BMW paid special attention to ergonomics in the BMW 5 Series for 2014, with all displays, knobs and buttons located in the central portion of the cabin. And the choice of interior materials reflects a new maturity on the part of BMW management; considering this is where consumers spend most of their time, the new upgrades are fully appropriate to that. We'd take issue, however, with the standard-spec Leatherette seating, which has no place in a $50,000 luxury car.Exterior
In assessing the 2014 BMW 5 Series, it's helpful to have some background. The development of its chassis and body structure was performed in conjunction with the flagship 7 Series. As a result, the 5 is more grown-up, with the longest wheelbase ever to be found on today's 5 Series. The proportions and overall impressions of this current 5 Series aren't radically different from those of its predecessors, but if you liked the smaller footprint of the previous iteration, the new 3 Series might be worth your consideration. In contrast, the 5 Series sedan's architectural limitations make the spacious Gran Turismo variant an enticing proposition for anyone who needs a 5 Series with SUV-like cargo space.
In sedan or 5-door body style, every 2014 BMW 5 Series includes 10-way power front seats, an 8-speed automatic transmission, run-flat tires, xenon adaptive headlights, navigation and BMW's iDrive infotainment system paired to a 10-speaker audio system. Unlike the Infiniti M and Acura TL, the 5 Series sedan does not offer leather seating or a moonroof as standard fare. As expected, the 2014 5 Series is packed with a full range of active and passive safety features, including six airbags, adaptive brake lights that become brighter as braking forces increase and BMW Assist with automatic collision notification, emergency assistance and concierge services.
BMW offers a variety of appealing stand-alone options and packages to enhance the performance and refinement of you 5 Series. On the performance side, Dynamic Damper Control enhances the overall ride quality by automatically adjusting the suspension characteristics according to the current road conditions, while the available M Sport Package adds 18-inch performance wheels and tires, aerodynamic bodywork and a race-inspired M steering wheel. Likewise, the new Luxury Line and Modern Line design packages add style elements inside and out. Luxury and convenience options include a full-color head-up display and active front seats designed to help reduce the fatigue and a rear-seat entertainment system with tablet-style displays.
Variety, thy name is 5 Series. With the introduction of a new turbodiesel, BMW offers a quadruple helping of turbocharged powertrains. Despite its "base" designation, the 2.0-liter four is one of the finest engines ever fitted to an entry-level vehicle. It delivers 240 horsepower, 260 lb-ft of torque and 32 mpg in the EPA's highway cycle. Perhaps the lack of an available manual transmission with the turbo-4 is a down note, but that absence can't last forever; the rumble for its return starts right now. The turbocharged inline-6 and its more powerful hybrid counterpart have their fans, while the 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 and the higher-output M variant seem to maintain the notion that too much power is never enough. The inline-6 twin-turbocharged diesel delivers V8-like torque with significant fuel economy increases over its gasoline counterparts.

The 2014 BMW 5 Series starts at a Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of just over $50,000. The 5-door Gran Turismo comes in around $62,000, while the new high-performance M5 tips the scales at a lofty $92,000. Offering only marginal increases in both horsepower and fuel economy, the $62,000 ActiveHybrid 5 lacks a compelling sales message, especially with the 535d diesel starting around $57,000. Competitors like the Lexus GS and Infiniti M share a similar starting price with the 5-Series, while the Audi A6 undercuts the group by roughly $5,000. The Mercedes-Benz E-Class offers a comparable level of standard equipment, but commands a premium over the 5 Series. To see what buyers in your area are actually paying for their new BMWs, take a look at KBB.com's Fair Purchase Price tool at the bottom of this page. When it comes time to sell, the 2014 5 Series is expected to maintain higher residual values than its Audi, Infiniti and Mercedes-Benz rivals, but trails the segment-leading Lexus GS by a considerable margin.

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10
"Shopped several luxury sedans for a year before buying the 535i Xdrive. Fit, finish and technology integration superb. Smartphone Bluetooth capture is excellent. Although subjective exterior/interior design is superb and is an attention grabber. Driver/passenger seats are great for short and long trips (Audi A6 had hard seats by comparison). The ride is comfortable, luxurious not the athletic 5 Series -Bimmer driving experience of yore but very good! However, watch out you'll be doing 90+ without thinking! Surround cameras are good, although the 360-degree picture isn't uniform-some sectors clearer than others will check that with the dealer. The back seats can be lowered to give you lots of pass through room from the trunk, although raising and lowering the seats is manual, should be powered. XDrive makes a difference and would recommend that no matter where you live- it does rain. Cup holders are located a bit forward, but you get used to that. The BMW maintenance plan makes this the least expensive luxury sedan to maintain across four-year period, do the math and you'll see."

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 30,000overall rating 10 of 10rating details
Pros: "Gas mileage, large trunk, seats, speed"
Cons: "Rock-hard run flat tires, rear visibility"
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10
"I have owned my 2014 535d xDrive M-Sport for a year and a half now. What a car! I always lease cars for 36 months and I have owned many BMW's before this (M3, 2 M5's, 550i, X5) and this is my favorite one by far. I got the graphite metallic color (which I don't think they offer on the 2015 M-sport models) with the mocha nappa leather multi-contour seats. My previous vehicle (2011 X5) was a great car but it had rough suspension and my wife hated the seats. The multi-cotour seats in the 535 are absolutely epic. The amount of adjustments you can make is just incredible. The optional adaptive dampers are a MUST in my opinion, especially on the M-Sport model. Those run-flat tires are HARD and the adaptive dampers make the ride a lot better. It's such a smooth car with little road noise. My 6ft son fits in the back seat no problem and the trunk is huge. The AWD system is great also with no problem in NY winters. The diesel is an absolute dream to drive. Does 0-60MPH in 5.7 seconds and though it's lacking in horsepower compared the the 535i it makes up for all of that with the enormous amounts of low-end torque. It just takes off. We did a drive from NYC to Albany for Thanksgiving doing 80MPH the whole time and we averaged 36MPG. I commute to Connecticut everyday for work and I have saved so much money on gas. The one thing this car leaves something to be desired is in rear visibility. The backup camera and parking sensors do mostly eliminate the problem, but it's a little hard to see out of the back window unless you really get up out of your seat. Otherwise, so happy with my decision. I can't wait till the lease is up so I can get another one!"

Apologetics Conference 2015: The Problem of Suffering
Our diocese's second Apologetics seminar was held at St. Mary and Archangel Michael in Solihull on the 28th of March 2015. The theme of this seminar was "Pain and Suffering" in preparation for our Lord's Holy Passion Week that is celebrated 4-12 of April.
The seminar started off with an introductory talk about how an Almighty and All-loving and Good God could allow for so much suffering and evil in the world. The next talk discussed in more detail what came to be known as the "Impossible Trinity" (Inconsistent Triad) and how Christ's Passion has given a new vision and meaning to the suffering of man.
We were also blessed to have a comprehensive talk from our beloved Fr. Peter Farrington, a priest of the British Orthodox Church, who also answered many questions on this topic. The final talk focused more on the hidden blessings and treasures that we could gain from enduring pain.
We all have learned so much from these wonderful talks and discussions, and it was a great opportunity to get some satisfying answers on so many questions that we are asked outside the church or that we ask ourselves so very often.
After the success of the 2014 edition of the Coptic Orthodox National Annual Football Association tournament (CONAFA), 2015 was always going to be an interesting year, with the news that the second edition of the tournament will be taking place.
Last year, nine teams gathered together in fellowship with Christ; this year a record eleven teams entered the tournament, making this the biggest Coptic football tournament to ever take place in the UK. This excitement was evident when the news confirmed that the Coptic Churches in the Republic of Ireland were prepared to travel to England to take part in the tournament.
The hosts of CONAFA, St. Mary & St. George Nottingham, finalists of the 2014 edition, were out to try and go one step further and lift the trophy in their own back yard. Expectations for the Nottingham team had risen after having unexpectedly won the 2014 COFTA tournament, annually held in Stevenage.
The only previous winners of the tournament, St. Mark's of Kensington, London - were out to defend their title. Other teams included the likes of St. Mary & St. Mina, Manchester, a team who were very much looking forward to CONAFA. St. Mary & St. Mark, Birmingham were another northern team to enter, having been drawn in a group alongside a number of good sides. St. Mary & Archangel Michael, Golders Green – semi-finalists from last year's COFTA tournament were also present representing the South. Other teams included St. Mary & St. Shenouda, Croydon, St. Antony, Rotherham as well as the Eritrean Orthodox team. No tournament would be complete without the hosts of the annual COFTA tournament, Stevenage, who lined up in Group B alongside a number of solid teams.
The new editions to this years tournament, were (as mentioned) the Republic of Ireland, and St. Mary & St. Abraam, Brighton – who had previously set a record of 4 years without losing a single match; until September.
Saturday was an exhausting day for many players. With eleven teams present, a large number of games had to be played. With St. Mary & St. George, Nottingham and St. Mary & Archangel Michael progressing from group A, and St. Mary & St. Abraam, Brighton and St. Mary & St. Mina, Manchester progressing from group B, the semi-finals on Sunday were extremely well set up.
A fully-packed liturgy on Sunday morning was a perfect example of what the weekend is all about; with gathering together in one body in Christ being the whole point of the weekend.
The matches on Sunday went ahead on schedule with Brighton and Golders Green progressing into the final, with the favourites, Brighton winning after a narrow 1-0 victory.
Regardless of how far each team made it in the tournament, there was a real sense of fellowship among everyone. It was a pleasure to see such a good level of discipline and fellowship throughout the weekend and we are hoping CONAFA will be back in 2016 with even more familiar faces!
Special thanks should go out to all the representatives and captains for organising their teams, as it would not have happened without your dedication and hard work.
Servants Retreat 2015: Evangelism
On the 13th-15th March 2015 the Diocese held its first evangelism event in the third annual Servants Retreat.
The programme included talks from Fr Bishoy, Fr Youhanna, Fr Peter, Dr Rafat Saad, Dr Fahmy Hanna, worship, midnight praises, a private Liturgy on Saturday and a Liturgy on Sunday with His Grace Bishop Missael.
All talks circulated around evangelism, Fr Bishoy and Fr Youhanna focused on the necessity of evangelism and how we should approach preaching, as well as the benefits. Fr Bishoy answered questions regarding obstacles we may face when evangelising. Fr Youhanna presented to us character studies of Joseph and Daniel - how they changed the world and how we also can do the same. Dr Rafat Saad focused on the book of Acts as the book contains the details of Jesus's preaching and how he told his disciples to preach and spread the word of God. Dr Fahmy Hanna tackled the debate of Christianity vs Science explaining how they do not contradict but in fact, go hand in hand. Fr Peter concluded the weekend by talking about how we witness to Christ.
The conference allowed each Church in the Diocese to come together in fellowship and gain a new perspective on Evangelism. Not only did the importance of taking small steps shine through, it also became clear that a lot of the time our actions speak louder than words. Through our approach to life and our attempts to love as Jesus does; everyone around us will see that we are true reflections of Christ. It is not necessarily through our own knowledge and actions we evangelise but through the grace of God and the Holy Spirit inside of us that the word of God shines from within us. Though we may face challenges in our evangelism, particularly with those who wish just to argue for fear of having to believe in and answer to God, it is in Christ we shall find strength. It is our duty to bring Christ to man, not man to Christ.
"You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden." Matthew 5:14
The New Martyrs of Libya added to the Coptic Synaxarium
His Holiness Pope Tawadros II announced the inclusion of the 21 Coptic New Martyrs of Libya in the Synaxarium of the Coptic Orthodox Church today. Every year, they will be commemorated on 8 Amshir in the Coptic calendar, which corresponds to 15 February in the Gregorian calendar, the same day as the Feast of the Presentation of our Lord in the Temple.
