A/N: So what if it's been done before? I decided to do a Harry Potter version of Bridget Jones's Diary (the book, not the movie, though the movie is good, too), and in turn for that book. This also does involve a Snape/Hermione pairing (eventually).
8/14/04: Newly revised to make less OOC (In Progress).
Leave assignments until one week before due date
End up in hospital wing with mirror clamped in hand
Fail N.E.W.Ts
Seduce Malfoy and other future Deatheaters for personal amusement
Think negatively about abilities and self in general
Indulge in chocolate with excuse of Dementors
Like men who have the emotional capabilities of a cactus
Fly off at taken friends and their ability to eat away at every bit of pride I have of being single
Wear giant knickers
Coax Ron into asking me on date, if only to determine that he is, in fact, completely wrong for me
Get top marks in every class
Free house elves everywhere
Pass N.E.W.T.s with flying colours
Help Harry defeat Dark Lord
Control myself
1st September Monday
Chocolate units eaten: 2 (good), Assignments due: 0, Assignments turned in: 0, Malfoy seductions: 1 (unsuccessful)
The train ride to Hogwarts was rather uneventful, though the presence of couple-dem this beginning school year is rather overwhelming. Harry and Ginny seemed to have a bit of trouble keeping their hands to themselves and ended up getting a chiding and scowl from the pudding cart lady. For a while, Ron was nowhere to be seen. Though I think I did see a sporting of bright red hair in the women's loos as I headed to the Head Boy/Girl and Prefect car, I refuse to believe he was in there.
By this time, I was becoming quite bored and couldn't help but flash a little leg at Malfoy when I reached the car, but I don't think he noticed. It's becoming quite an unsavory habit, and one I must break. Though the faces he makes and the look in his eyes whenever I show him a little skin is quite addictive. But this is something that's only a sport for me, nothing to take too seriously. Right? I can't play Quidditch, I have to do something for entertainment. And what's more entertaining than driving an evil boy absolutely mad?
It's all old men's fault, really. I never actually realized that I might be attractive until I was on a short holiday with my parents in London last summer and was asked by two men, both considerably similar-looking (short, chubby, bald, resembling Flitwick but a bit taller) to go with them to their rooms for drinks. I just laughed and walked away, hoping to Merlin that they were kidding, but it did help me to conclude that I'm not that bad looking. Maybe I don't turn heads when I walk into a room, but if two middle-aged men want me in their rooms, that must count for something. No matter how disturbing that something is. Draco must just be an exception to the rule.
Ron joined us later and remained quiet for the entire ride to school. Though I believe there were some long, lingering glances in my direction, and I could tell that he wanted to pull an uneasy argument out of thin air numerous times. Palpable tension. Very good.
2nd September Tuesday
Chocolate Units: 3 (acceptable), Assignments Due: 0, Assignments Turned In: 0 (I will not hyperventilate, though I would thwack someone with a mutated pig's heart for some extra credit), Malfoy Seductions: 0 (couldn't find him, but v. g.)
Shortened the hem of my robe this morning before classes for convenience's sake. Earned some hefty looks from the Takens (Ginny, Harry, and every other hormone-driven adolescent that swaps saliva in this castle), who must insist that I'm doing this to get a boyfriend.
They don't know me at all.
Double Potions this morning; a very unsatisfactory way to begin the school year. I caught a peek of Snape's very repulsive bright pink jumper under his robes when he bent over to look at my potion. No wonder the man has never had a romantic life, if he wears clothes like that.
Self-confidence is slipping into oblivion as my hormones are screaming "reproduce!" and everything else is screaming "no!" Must find Malfoy to feel better.
4th September Thursday
Chocolate Units: 0 (am dying), Assignments Due: 0, Assignments Turned In: 0, Time spent straightening hair: 15 m (v.g), Malfoy Seductions: 2 (oops)
Filch was rather shirty yesterday and gave me detention for tracking soil on the floor from herbology. V. put off, as Head Girls are not supposed to be sent to detention.
Knuckles still sore.
Found a black Nuntius book in my rucksack after breakfast, and found written inside "To the girl with the invisible robe skirt and the big hair, from that one bloke." It was an older book, the cover a bit worn, but I couldn't help but wonder who it was from. At first, I thought it might be Ginny's old journal, the one she used to communicate with Voldemort, might be coming back to haunt me, bt I'm certain that the person on the other end of this book is a bit stupider than can be believed. I still couldn't help but wonder who it had been. I certainly hadn't slipped it into my own bag. I'll keep it in there and see what I can do with it later.
Potions assignment incredibly boring (anything that has to do with a cure for constipation is not very pleasant reading material. Though I doubt that it was Snape's choice, he did not look particularly happy when assigning it), and was having a hard time concentrating with all the babble of the Gryffindor commons. Took out Nuntius book and a quill and scribbled a sentence on the first page, which was completely blank:
I'm wondering why that one bloke is noticing that my skirt is invisible.
No answer. The last bits of hope had been beat out of me with a little black book. I shoved it back in my rucksack and forgot about it.
Okay, so I lie.
After I finished Potions (priorities, after all), I brought it back and stared at it for about a century. Suddenly, when I was about to doze off, untidy handwriting, slightly familiar, sprawled itself across the page where my message had previously been.
So, it is invisible? I was starting to wonder if it was suffering from an illness and confined to the hospital wing.
Stared at it for a while, trying not to smile. Never know who's watching.
Maybe I must report this to Dumbledore. He would be very concerned over anonymous sexual harassment using a magical book.
The reply was almost immediate.
Perhaps this is Dumbledore?
Horrified. I must learn from Ginny, or, I suppose, Ginny's mother, who said very wisely, "Never trust an object if you can't see where it keeps its brain", or something of the sort. Though I suppose that could very well apply to Ron.
5th September Friday
Chocolate Units: 15 (repulsive), Assignments Due: 2, Assignments Turned In: 3, Malfoy Seductions: 0 (v.g.)
Damn Ron. Found matching Nuntius book when I went ruffling through his rucksack for extra pot of ink. He remembered and tried to stop me, but only after I had found it.
Very upset.
But also slightly curious.
Wrote message before going to bed:
The skirt of my robes may be in hospital permanently, or until rare cure for illness arrives.
No reply.
Oh, Merlin. What did I do now?
6th September Saturday
Chocolate Units: 5 (okay), Assignments Due: 0, Assignments Turned In: 2 (the world does not cease on a Saturday), Attempts at Love Potion: 4 (appalling), Malfoy Seductions: 1 (acceptable)
It turns out that Ron was in detention with McGonagall when I wrote to him. Opened book this morning to find new message.
This may seem ill mannered, but I wish the robe skirt a long and tedious stay in the hospital wing. I do not wish to see it soon.
Ron approached me after lunch to ask me on a date. Very, very happy. Of course, had to play a little hard to get. Too much homework tonight, start of term party in Great Hall tomorrow. I told him I'd think about it and walked away.
I feel very desirably frigid, even if Ron is neglecting the Nuntius book.
New message from Ron:
I ate a biscuit that you gave to Harry. I'm thinking of going to the hospital wing to keep your robes company. Feeling very ill.
Perhaps he was joking?
Harry just informed me that Ron has gone to the hospital wing because he wasn't feeling well.
Probably just a coincidence.
Ah, bugger it.

|I towed my 1970 Chevelle SS to the shop for service and an inspection, so I could have my new vehicle registered. The customer service was exceptional good as they kept me up to date on the status of the repair.The Manager (Kelly) and the Head Mechanic (Richard) were very great at explaining the process of the repair. I recommend my mother-in -law & friends to Auto Max for their honest and trustworthy service. Thank you Auto Max.

I wasn't hearing what I wanted to hear: "Don't mix work and play," everyone said. "Don't shit where you eat."
"Don't go fishing off of the company pier," my buddy warned me, plunking his empty beer bottle on the bar.
"Even though I'm not going to stay at this job for very long?" I pleaded, peering into my wallet.
"Oh, in that case," he said, smiling as I paid for the fresh round in front of us, "rape and pillage!"
My interviewer at the small, upstart media company (which I'll call "The Content Producers") is a tall, good-looking maniac. We share a mutual friend. On our tour of the Content Producers' overstuffed, understaffed office, I can't help admiring his broad back and powerful, satyr-like haunches. "Here is a man," I think to myself, "who would not look out of place playing the Pan pipes while frolicking in a sun-dappled forest clearing."
Our subsequent talk goes well enough that he calls two days later and offers me the job. I consider inviting him to a party I'm co-hosting that night, but a sudden pang of shyness overtakes me. It is the last time I will feel such a thing for several years. Over the next eighteen months, I will take the Content Producers by storm, a gleeful and impulsive Viking Conquerer of Love on an erotic tour that will eventually lead me up and down the office phone list.
The place is not exactly corporate. Major funding for our first project comes from a man who wears his money and power with such arrogant charm that he can still call underlings "Sweetheart" and "Doll" without getting his ass handed to him. On my first day, the whole staff is giggling about a couple from the office downstairs who have stopped the service elevator to indulge in a quick oral sex sampler during the lunchtime rush. All the Content Producers watch them on the security monitors in the lobby, hooting their encouragements until the doorman has to intervene.
My first crush happens later that day, when Ernie looks up from the copy machine to smile, then blush, at me. I stand, tax forms in hand, instantly smitten by the dark, curly-haired son of a gentleman doctor from Maine. My gut-churning crush on this earnest young soul will be quashed within weeks, but not before we spend a day riding the Cyclone at Coney Island.
The Human Resources guy probably gave me some sort of Content Producers sexual-harassment policy when I started working there. But maybe not. He was also the office manager and the IT guy, so he was constantly fixing the color printer before the art department had a collective meltdown, or explaining to the Fire Marshal why the mailroom guy was the only person on our floor who participated in the mandatory fire drill. Only then could he get around to pesky matters like payroll and potential lawsuits. But I doubt I would have bothered to read it anyway.
Twenty-nine years after the first Title VII sexual harassment case was resolved in D.C. District Court, a company can't afford not to have a stated policy against sexual harassment. Individuals whose unwanted sexual advances create a hostile work environment face humiliation, termination and/or litigation. And yet, a recent survey conducted by CareerFinder.com found that 56% of American workers have dated someone on the job. If you factor in repeat offenders like me (31%, according to the same survey), assuming a workforce of approximately 150 million, you have to wonder why anyone bothers to put clothes on before heading off to work.
"The conventional wisdom is that unless the relationship interferes with the work, management has no business interfering," says Monica Griffith, a Florida-based management consultant who specializes in employee relations. "Our waking life is in the workplace. It could be, even should be, a source of potential mates. But you want to create an atmosphere of openness between peers, between equals."
As a reasonably well-educated thirty year old, I came up professionally among peers for whom gender equality is assumed. In this atmosphere, a sexual advance is no more threatening than it would be in a bar. Bawdy jokes told around the water cooler are entertainment, not oppression. Does this mean that sexual harassment is going the way of those monstrous '80s-era power suits?
In another survey, this one run by teen site Alloy.com, a large majority of respondents answered that "touching and groping" is not necessarily sexual harassment, and that "sometimes that stuff is just good clean fun."
If you ask me, the kids are alright.
Under the cover of this thing called "my new job", I meet and befriend a cavalcade of smart, straight men — a species I've lived without since splitting up with a Big Love nearly a year before. On the night of the Content Producers' big kickoff party, I'm the first one downstairs. Basking in the summer-evening warmth of the sidewalk, I watch the junior staff pour out of the elevators and ricochet around the lobby like a sackful of superballs. (What I didn't discern at the time: within two years, four of them would be married or engaged to each other.)
At the party, the dorkily handsome Australian web designer attaches himself to me. I've never really spoken to Webby before, but I'm flattered by his attention and charmed by his quick wit. I don't particularly trust either, but after six glasses of Sancerre, what sensible girl wouldn't snag a half-bottle of champagne, hide in the coatroom of the empty upstairs bar, and make out with him like a randy teenager for an hour? When I find out that Webby is notorious for this kind of thing, I don't even care. Adrift in a sea of options, I'm rapidly shedding my chronic libido-crippling shyness.
That's how I find the nerve to pursue Billy, the twenty-four-year-old son of a noted theater producer who's also a design consultant for the Content Producers. As we're being introduced, I can't help but notice a few mischievous tendrils of dark hair creeping up his broad chest, toward the opening of his wilted linen shirt, a shirt which happens to perfectly match the overdyed blue of his eyes. We flirt until one very late night after someone's birthday. He hurls his jacket to the ground in mock disgust over the lack of available cabs. I'm still laughing when he sweeps me into a loose backward dip and gives me the last first kiss I'll want for quite some time.
I lay my head on Billy's broad chest for almost a year, at first in secret. I cautiously out us to good friends at work as they start to look askance at our suspiciously synchronous cigarette breaks or similar-sounding vacation plans. One particularly loathesome assistant starts giving me knowing looks, so I draw her into conversation, mention Billy in passing, and let her ask me about him. I deny anything untoward but entrust her with the "secret" that I — hey, doesn't everyone? — have a little crush on him. Billy and I continue dating in privacy until we're finally tired of arguing all the time. He leaves the Content Producers, and soon afterward, I leave him. He promptly takes up with someone at his new job.
For several weeks, I am a mad kissing bandit, both at work and in my larger life. One day, my buddy Mack, the daddy of New Business Development, takes one long, wolfish look at this new swing in my step and yells down the hall after me, "Hey baby, you want some fries with that shake?" As it happens, I do.
Mack, who's about fifteen years and eighteen salary levels my senior, has a lot more to lose than I do. He is an unruly man of large and messy appetites, not empirically attractive but powerfully sexual. He drinks too much, drives a revoltingly fast little car and wakes the neighborhood with his barking when we fuck. And for one hot summer, that's about all we do. We establish from the outset that, having each just ended capital-R Relationships, we will indulge our ids without wondering what to call it. We will not submit to the tyranny of underwear. It is perfect bliss, until suddenly, one night over dinner, it is simply not. He says, "Um, listen…," and I say, "I know," and we hurry home together one last time.
After a year-and-a-half with the Content Producers, I'm a little fatigued. I know that I don't want to fool around with Francis the copywriter as soon as I take his glasses off. He stands there blinking at me like a stunned bat, apparently wondering what's going to happen next. I want to shout, "Some sort of sex act happens next, so get it going!" And I'm frustrated that my job isn't changing anymore. The fun is over, so I get some lucrative freelance work at a more established company, The Content Recyclers. On my first day there, I discover that I will be sitting right next to my one-time fling, Webby, and two chairs down from another Content Producer I once knew — I'll call him BJ. If they hadn't put the copier across the hall, I might've been surrounded.
Everyone hears — and has — tales of career-immolating disaster: Getting caught in the powder room with two grams and a topless intern at the boss's Christmas party; obsessively dressing for, and walking past the office of, the person you kissed after a work event six weeks ago and immediately became invisible to; fending off the needy boss who mistakes an assistant's eagerness-to-please for a secret love. These projects, once launched, tend to end badly.
I think I got lucky. My pride got wounded, and I obsessed about a few guys I didn't even like that much, just because they were there. But despite the occasional whispered speculations about my leisure activities, I was never the center of an office scandal. Either I have a gift for giving my notice just in time, or else bringing work home with you isn't what it used to be.
Perhaps the culture of the workplace has expanded to include as many diverse expressions as the American family. Perhaps post-post Baby Boomers are the first to have the luxury of using the corporate ladder as a prop in our libidinous gymnastics routines. At least I'll never be fired for not getting along with people. And I have eight or nine references who can attest to that.
Names and identifying details have been changed.

Documents have revealed that Gary Coleman did not want to be taken off life support if he was ever in that position.
The Diff'rent Strokes actor, who was hospitalised last month after suffering an intracranial haemorrhage, died after his ex-wife Shannon Price gave permission for the machine that was keeping him alive to be switched off.
In Instructions for Health Care paperwork obtained by TMZ, Coleman ticked the box titled Choice to Prolong Life, which read: "I want my life to be prolonged as long as possible within the limits of generally accepted health care standards."
Coleman's agent Robert Malcolm has previously claimed that friends and family of the star begged Price not to "pull the plug" but she ignored their requests.
Price has said that she made the decision based on the advice of doctors.

Canadian prices are 30 to 50 percent higher than in US
DRAYTON, ON—The Senate Committee on Finance has confirmed the Tire Dealers Association of Canada's (TDAC) findings that discriminatory "country pricing" by tire manufacturers is forcing tire consumers across Canada to pay anywhere from 30 to 50 percent more than consumers in the US pay for the same tires.
"Many US-based tire manufacturers use their supplier contracts with Canadian tire retailers to force them to buy tires wholesale directly from their Canadian affiliates rather than directly through much less costly US wholesale distribution channels," says Bob Bignell, chair of the Tire Price Disparity Committee of the Tire Dealers Association of Canada.
"If a Canadian retailer buys wholesale tires from a US wholesale distributor rather than through the manufacturer's Canadian sales division, both the Canadian retailer and the US distributor have their supplies of tires cut off by the manufacturer. In the end it's the Canadian consumer who gets gouged by higher tire prices."
Notwithstanding tire manufacturers' practices of barring cheaper US wholesale tires from being imported into Canada, even Canadian-made tires are more expensive in Canada than they are in the US. In October 2011, TDAC wrote to Finance Minister Jim Flaherty noting that, "Incredibly the wholesale prices of tires manufactured in Canada are 30 percent cheaper in the United States than in Canada."
Bignell notes, "Given that the US and Canadian dollars have been at parity for a long time, that many tires sold at higher prices in Canada are made here and that there are no import duties or tariffs on imported tires, there is no excuse whatsoever for tire prices in Canada to be more than five percent higher than they are in the US. There is simply no rationale whatsoever for a tire made in Nova Scotia to cost a Nova Scotian more than an American."
Over the next year TDAC will be undertaking a number of measures to protect Canadian consumers:
The basic premise of TDAC's position to manufacturers is that "There is no excuse for Canadians paying more for tires than Americans do."

Creating Brockmans required the different skills of a group of very experienced and devoted friends.
Their combined knowledge of gin history, and the subtle nuances of different styles of gin and distillation proved invaluable as they explored the vast array of complex flavours and taste combinations of botanicals. The one aim was to create a gin Like No Other; one that was so intensely smooth and delicious you would happily drink it neat over ice."
The naturally grown aromatic botanicals are steeped in pure grain spirit for many hours to release their oils and aromas.
Thereafter, Brockmans is distilled in a 100 year old traditional copper still, where we capture the heart of the gin distillation. The distinctive gin notes and the aroma of coriander married with the softer notes of blueberry and blackberry help deliver an exquisite new taste experience and an intensely smooth gin.
Brockmans distinctive taste is derived from a unique recipe of exquisite botanicals. The more traditional notes of gin are combined with a refreshing influence of citrus and aromatic wild berry. This creates an intensely smooth gin with a beautifully crafted taste that is sensual and daringly different.

Biofuels are hot developing markets around the world; however, most projects use productive farmland that produces bio-fuels from food or destroys native forests or jungle such as the case with palm oil plantations in Asia and Africa to produce biofuels.
However, the planned Monarca Plantation is based in a different and better approach by using degraded, non-productive land in the Northern region of the Yucatan in Mexico. The plan calls for restoration of the land and re-vegetation that has been abandoned and not productive since the hemp rope industry collapsed over fifty years ago. The agriculture crop of choice will be Jatropha with the seeds being harvested for the production of biofuel.
Zphere Works, a Mexico City company is the overall lead entity fostering the creation of the Monarca Plantation. Zphere Works have retained the services of Turf Feeding Systems, a Houston, Texas-based company to design, construct and manage the envisioned 33,000-hectare (80,000+ acres) sustainable, high yield Jatropha plantation in the Yucatan – The Monarca Plantation. This is a first of its kind plantation that will restore degraded land & soil to create the most productive high yield Jatropha plantation in the world.
Michael Chaplinsky, owner of Turf Feeding Systems recently said, "We are forming a team of scientists, engineers, agronomists and practitioners from around the world to implement the high efficiency of hydroponics into a 33,000-hectare plantation. Our goal is to create the most productive Jatropha plantation that uses the least water, fertilizer and chemicals. This will produce twice the best hybrid production, which equals twice the production at half the cost."
Chaplinsky continued, "We also set a new standard of sustainability, so our team includes, Ronald Dodson, a world leader in sustainable practices and operation methods, to help us assess, restore and manage the land, wildlife and habitats. Dodson will evaluate the entire property to establish the best ways to integrate wildlife and improved biological diversity into the 124-square mile plantation for native wildlife. We will not sacrifice nature for profits. We will be stewards of the environment, and do whatever we can to recover endangered native species."
Ron Dodson said, "This is a very important project aimed to improve the rural economy of the Yucatan through sustainable agriculture. This project will become a model for reducing rural poverty, which is the top goal of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (UNFAO) and it will provide schools, career training and a health clinic for workers and their families. It will create an economic engine in the Yucatan for over 600 workers and thousands of family members."
Chaplinsky concluded, "The Monarca project will become a business model for Mexico and other Central American countries to demonstrate how well economic viability and the social and environmental aspects of sustainability work together. Sustainability is an economic driver first, with social and environmental values resulting. We are pleased and excited that Zphere Works has the vision and passion to support our team's mission."

French lawmakers on Wednesday formally adopted President Nicolas Sarkozy's fiercely-contested law on pension reform, despite weeks of nationwide protests and strikes.
The National Assembly voted 336 for and 233 against the law, which increases the minimum retirement age from 60 to 62, on the eve of the latest in a series of protests that have threatened to bring France to a standstill.
Sarkozy must now sign off on the law and publish it in the official gazette, which a presidential advisor has said will happen on or around November 15.
Unions have nevertheless called for a ninth day of action on Thursday, including strikes and protest marches in more than 100 towns and cities, and another day of "family rallies" is planned for November 6.
Prime Minister Francois Fillion urged the country to pull itself out of the crisis, saying "the law of the Republic should now be respected by all" despite Socialists vowing to take the law before the Constitutional Court.
"Everyone should know how to come out of this protest with responsibility and a mutual respect," Fillon said in a statement released by his office.
"In increasing the legal retirement age an important step has been taken to protect our welfare system in the face of the effect of demographic ageing. Our fellow citizens can view the future of their pensions with more confidence."
Socialist lawmaker Marisol Touraine said the law punishes the poor.
"You've spoken a lot about courage," she told Labour Minister Eric Woerth, the architect of the law. "But you've chosen to make the weakest pay, to attack those with the least means."
And Socialist leader Martine Aubry accused the government of abusing parliamentary procedure to shut down democratic debate, and vowed to fight on to delay the law being enacted.
"I tell the president, you won't win against the French people," she said.
Despite the call for fresh protests, Sarkozy's supporters have pointed to a tailing off of industrial action in key sectors such as refining and fuel distribution as evidence that the strikers have failed.
Protests since the start of September repeatedly brought more than a million people onto the streets and the battle between unions and the government has seen Sarkozy's approval rating collapse to less than 30 percent.
Thursday's rally falls during the French half-term school holidays, and the president's camp is hoping that this, alongside the passage of the law, will see the protest movement losing steam and a slow return to normal.
At the start of the week all 12 of France's oil refineries were on strike and holiday traffic severely disrupted by fuel shortages.
Half of refineries are returning to full production after workers voted to resume work, even if petrol is still in short supply with one filling station in five out of service.
Rail travel has all but returned to normal, however, after a train drivers' strike hit the buffers, and Marseille bin men have begun to clear the 10,000 tonnes of rubbish that built up in the streets.
Thursday might yet see another impressive one-day strike, however, and protests planned for November 6 threaten to embarrass Sarkozy during a state visit by President Hu Jintao of China.
Strikes on Thursday will force the cancellation of 50 percent of flights at Paris Orly airport and 30 percent at other airports, the civil aviation authority DGAC said, similar to the previous day of action on October 19.
However, unions said that public transport workers in 29 towns and cities would strike on Thursday, the seventh day of anti-pension reform strikes since August, down from a peak of 103 in September.
Previous strike-day rallies have drawn huge crowds, usually more than a million according to police estimates and as high as 3.5 million according to the unions, but labour leaders were cautious not to raise expectations.
"Our objective is not to beat any records," conceded Bernard Thibault, head of the powerful CGT union, in an interview with the daily Liberation.
"But from what we're hearing from the ground, we'll see another good level of mobilisation, which will show that level of anger has not diminish."
Sarkozy is aware that the law has not won him any new friends, but he is hoping that by facing down the protests he will appear strong in the eyes of his right-wing base as he prepares to seek re-election in 2012.
In the days to come he is expected to symbolise the re-launch of his strategy with a major cabinet reshuffle.

Audax (Latin for "endeavour") is a non-competitive sport in which participants cycle long distances, unsupported, within a pre-defined time limit: completion is success. There are no winners, losers or rankings.
In the light of recent events, my brother William and I decided to combine an Audax with fundraising for HOPE not hate and its new #MoreInCommon campaign. 400km around the landing sites and battlefields of Normandy seemed a suitable, silent, elegy to what can happen when the politics of hate are allowed to take over.
The rules of the event required a finish within 27 hours. A 5am start on Saturday morning dictated a finish by 8am on Sunday morning. As someone who is generally not a morning person, neither time filled me with deep joy. Cycling significantly further in one go than I have done before was also the cause of some trepidation.
The event was organised by the wonderfully named Cyclo Club de Montebourg St Germain de Tournebut. We were greeted at their club house (formally the local firemen's garage) by the "gentil organisateur" Stéphane Gibon and his father, both wearing club shirts sponsored by the local bovine podiatrist and both bearing cups of coffee. Friendly greetings with the other 30 riders and we were off.
Reminders of June 1944
The early stages of a ride, in the dark with red tail-lights snaking through the countryside, always have something magical about them.
We soon came upon the first reminder of the terrible days of June 1944, in the shape of the 16 gun emplacements and bunkers of Crisbecq. These were followed by many other sites of historical significance: Utah beach, Omaha beach, Gold beach, Pegasus Bridge and too many "martyr" villages, which were raised to the ground (often by the Allied bombardment).
The contrast between the beautiful, peaceful, landscapes of Normandy and the echoes of the horrors that so many people, including the local civilian population, suffered was marked.
Our suffering was minimal by comparison, but long rides require constant food and water, failing which the body just stalls or, possibly worse, given the temperatures of over 33 degrees on the day, develops heat exhaustion.
Fortunately, the countryside towns and villages of Normandy are well provided for, with boulangeries for restocking on the go… Five other riders, however, succumbed to the rigours of the day and did not finish.
One feature of Audax rides tends to be running into fellow, slightly, mad riders – we were playing catch-up and leapfrog, with a group of wiry, athletic, retirees and a lone biker on a mountain bike. The other feature is the need to just keep going, something I find particularly hard when tempted to stop and take in the view (or possibly a glass of rosé…).
However, keep going we did, managing to finish within 20 hours and thus being able to treat ourselves to a beer and an inflatable mattress in the club house/garage – sleep punctuated by the arrival of fellow travellers throughout the night.
Major emotions
For me the day came with two major emotions. First, a real sense of achievement at having gone further than I have done before (without major physical issues, other than a nasty spot of sunburn where I missed applying sun cream). And second, a huge sense of sadness engendered by the history I was cycling through.
The remains of 10,152 dead lie beneath some 4,000 grave stones in the German war cemetery of Orglandes. Growing-up, for me, these people were the faceless "baddies" who started it all and deserved to lose. Now I realise most of them were too young to have even chosen the regime they were dying for.
Two resolutions: to keep cycling and to stay engaged; or to try, at least, to engender a sense of hope to help guide us away from the path of helplessness, a path that can lead to extremism, terror and totalitarianism.
In the end, we are both proud to have raised over £1,500 for HOPE not hate and are still open for further sponsorship.

It's always awkward walking into an unknown group isn't it? Generally my mind whizzes through every permutation possible. Will they be friendly? Will it be stern and serious? Will I fidget to the point that people think I have a medical condition?
Well I needn't have worried, those fears turned out to be as real as Donald Trump's hair. The first meeting of the Sheffield HOPE not hate group on Thursday 7 July turned out to be a success.
The first thing that struck me as I entered the room was the number of people present. Now I know that suggests a dim view of humanity on my part, but given how we as a nation have been portrayed in the media lately, who can blame me? The room was packed! It restored some faith to see so many people, giving up their time for the benefit of the community at large.
We took our seats in a circle. No-one looked too intimidating, there were a lot of smiling faces, a grown-up mother and daughter duo, a young couple with their children, some people looking as uncertain as myself. So far so good.
First off came "Creeping Death": I mean going around the circle introducing yourself to the group at large. I spluttered out my name and quickly hit a verbal dead end. I was interested to note the diversity within the group. Local counsellors, community development professionals, teachers, lecturers, small business owners, students and first timers like myself. All motivated to come and stand up to the upsurge in racism our recent Brexit vote had engendered.
Once the introductions were over, Paul [the group leader] explained our objectives. A natural speaker, confident with an easy humour, he drew us in with an ease that I thought most politicians would envy.
'We have more in common'
HOPE not hate is organising a series of events across the UK on 3 September, on the theme of "We Have More In Common". For those unfamiliar with the quote, it was lifted from the maiden Parliamentary speech given by the murdered MP Jo Cox. She was a fine woman who represented her constituency in Batley with courage and conviction.
First came our shared stories. There was no shortage of tales to be told, then suggestions on how to achieve our goals. We could provide training within schools or other venues to empower individuals to safely challenge racism. Others suggested linking with local festivals to get our messages across. or creating literature with striking imagery to disseminate across the city, or even theatrical pieces to explore given scenarios. There was no shortage of good ideas, but that was for future meetings.
Looking back on the hour-and-a-half that flew by, I realised a couple of things. I'd been thinking of Christopher Isherwood lately, wondering how it felt to be in his shoes as he observed the country around him – Germany in the 1930s – become gripped by terrible antisemitism and racism? Did it feel the same then as it does now? Disenfranchised people driven by austerity and a hate-filled media to target groups of people who were not to blame? Was history repeating itself to some extent?
Yes and no. He was a passive observer, and there were few such groups as the people before me now, who were willing to stand up to such hate with a better message.
Oh: and I also realised that I'd sat there engrossed for 90 minutes. Not fidgeting at all.

Held in a packed room in Nottingham, it was clear from the meeting that post referendum social rifts had shocked Nottinghamshire residents.
Stories of members of the migrants' communities – European and non-European, first generation and fourth – all suffering from a dramatic rise in hate directed at them in the street abounded. Families feeling unwelcome in their homes and community asked what could we do to support them.
On top of this was a desire to repair the social damage following Brexit, to put the vote behind us and to rebuild relationships. HOPE not hate (Hnh) listened and will now be putting on a community training event on 21 July in Nottingham city centre.
The training addresses two main issues that people wanted help with. Firstly, how to challenge racism in the street and, secondly, how to develop some basic community organising skills. The sessions will be focusing around a technique called the "Story of Us", a tool used in many civil rights campaigns. We will be aiming to train 60 new volunteers.

Thurrock has, for many years, been at the forefront of Hnh's campaigning work. With UKIP now the official opposition on the local council and the social fallout following the EU referendum, it is ever more important to offer the local residents alternative messages to fear and xenophobic finger- pointing.
At a #MoreInCommon meeting in Grays on 7 July,it was clear from those attending that Thurrock felt distant from the mainstream course of events.
For many residents, the lack of good job prospects and cuts in vital local services have left growing anger and resentment. It is clear that people feel politicians are not listening to their concerns, leaving a vacuum filled by UKIP, mixing up people's genuine concerns and issues with messages of anti-immigration racism that distract from discussion of real solutions.
At the meeting, it was decided that a local campaign needs to be launched to get people talking about their concerns and to provide understanding that can take them past rhetoric picked up from the right-wing media and get to the heart of their problems.
Therefore, HOPE not hate will be launching friendly community events to get people talking. The plan is to holding welcoming community-rooted events away from offices and meeting rooms and go into the heart of neighbourhoods. Informal BBQs and chats over a cuppa on the very streets that need Hnh's message more than ever before will help get things moving. These conversations will then shape the future of the Thurrock campaign.

Thirty-five people from a variety of different backgrounds met in Swansea to discuss the aftermath of the referendum. Pleasingly, people who had voted Leave and Remain were united by a desire to challenge hatred.
The common theme was to explore how to build on the amazing success of Wales' run in the European Football Championships and combine efforts across the town for a major event.
There was interest in the need to campaign among disaffected people in the community, particularly the young, and the local Hnh group will be meeting again soon to thrash out details of its planned events and actions.

Our first meeting in Merthyr led to some exciting developments and the beginning of a local Hnh presence. Led by our Merthyr organiser, we will be working hard over the next few months in the South Wales Valleys.
Merthyr is a town built through migration and those present discussed ways of celebrating and articulating this tradition and, in particular, how to turn the tide against UKIP.

Almost 40 people attended a lively meeting in Manchester. All but two of those attending were new to Hnh and most voiced a determination that they could no longer sit by and watch our social problems grow.
The meeting broke into four groups, each discussing local actions plans for their communities.
A six-person committee has been set up to drive activities forward and more localised Hnh meetings will now take place in Stockport, Rochdale and Salford. An activist from Blackburn also volunteered to help set up a group there.

Over 60 Southend residents gave up their Monday evening to make their way to the Westcliffe URC to discuss what can be done in the wake of the social divisions that have arisen post-Brexit.
The first half of the meeting was open to people to talk about their feelings and concern in the "new normal" of British politics.
Stories were shared of local European residents packing their bags and heading back to their country of origin, leaving behind their jobs and uprooting their children who probably only know of life in Essex.
However, it was not all doom and gloom. A great desire was reflected from the minority population in Southend to pull together and establish community action plans. A gardening group called "Blooming Foreigners" is just one of a number of initiatives that have already been set up.
Those at the meeting seemed keen to organise fora to share experiences and rebuild community links, with a local clergyman keen to stress the need to not just speak to like-minded people but also to those with concerns about immigration. A massive thank you to friends at CAST for hosting the meeting!

One of our biggest More In Common meetings so far, Colchester saw a turnout of 50 people, so even our first meeting felt like a celebration of the great community we live in! Plans have now begun to run a community picnic in the near future, as well as a music event and working with local Citizens group on a large fun day in October, as well as an exciting idea to film local people's lives in what may be a long term project.

Our initial More In Common meeting in Ipswich was an opportunity to come together and share ideas for bringing communities together in the local area.
Plans for the next few months include running a food event on Norwich Road, involving all communities in fun days organised by councils, contacting the Student Union of Suffolk College to run projects in the next academic year, and working with a new BAME business network in Ipswich.
Loads of energy and excitement about the future in Ipswich!

A vibrant meeting of over 30 people came together in York last night as part of the national HOPE not hate #More In Common initiative.
A really broad mix of people, from varied backgrounds, both young and older, resolved to set up a HOPE not hate group in York. Everyone was concerned about the rising levels of racism and racist assaults and all were determined to make sure that a voice of hope was raised in York, to show solidarity with the victims of racism, but also to work with those who may be vulnerable to racist ideologies.
A particular feature of the meeting was the number of people in attendance who in the past have followed HOPE not hate on line but who now want to do more.
As a result of this HOPE not hate can report that a #More In Common event will be held in York on September 3rd as well as leafleting and other activities leading up to it.
Many different ideas about possible future work in the city were suggested and discussed and the group resolved to meet again in the near future to start planning.

Cambridge is one of the most diverse cities in UK, so it was a perfect place to hold a #MoreInCommon meeting.
Meeting together for the first time, people were able to share their dismay at some of the racism that has been stirred up since the Referendum result. Breaking into small groups, people brainstormed on finding ways to share the HOPE and togetherness that are synonymous with Cambridge. Exciting plans ensued, including planning a family fun day in Arbury, one of the most deprived wards in Cambridge. Due to take place in September, the event will focus around 5-a-side football, sharing food and bringing together white working class members of the community with their ethnic minority and migrant neighbours.
The group also agreed to reach out to the wider community in Huntingdon and work out how best to organise a solidarity event after members of the Polish community were targeted with "No more Polish vermin" hate messages.
The time to celebrate the fact that we have #MoreInCommon and to heal divisions is now! There is no sitting on the fence, each and every one of us has a role to play!

Guest blog: Rabbi Dr Harvey Belovski's account of celebrating Eid with friends
It was a memorable evening in the Kent countryside. My wife Vicki, our two younger sons and Richard Verber (senior vice-president of the Board of Deputies of British Jews) joined the fabulously irrepressible Remona Aly and her family and other guests at their open-house Eid celebration this past Wednesday.
Delicious fruit, kosher snacks sourced specially for the occasion and gracious hospitality were enhanced by the Alys' charming garden and some warm weather. My two boys romped in the garden and tried out the hammock (I discovered to some amusement that I was too heavy for it) and we all very much enjoyed the relaxed company.
We built on existing friendships, embarked on new ones, ate a lot of fruit and just had a jolly good laugh. I loved the fact that while we were in the garden, inside the house, Wales competed with Wimbledon in different rooms (who should get the larger TV?), and I discovered that the 'Muslim goodbye' is similar to the 'Jewish goodbye', just longer and less conclusive! Vicki and I particularly appreciated the opportunity to enjoy Remona's company at her family home rather than ours, and, inexplicably, her family were as keen to meet us as we were to meet them.
I'm particularly pleased that my kids had a chance to share the experience – they even stopped bashing each other for a short while to play with Remona's nieces – and I expect they will give their school friends a good report of a rather unusual outing.
Shared experiences of this sort are a wonderful way to discover how much we have in common with each other. It was hard not to equate this part of the Alys' Eid celebration with similar Jewish family occasions, nor to notice our parallel family structures. But most importantly, sharing food and quality time, especially in the home of those who practise a faith different from our own, is an unparalleled way to break down barriers of prejudice and fear and to recognise that we have far more in common with each other than factors that divide us.
The faith community narrative in the UK is so often dominated by tales of conflict and spite, and while we will respond robustly to those who spread hatred and divisiveness, we must emphasise that our values and aspirations for our children, our communities and our country are largely shared.

The plan for downloadable MM3 content calls for multiple packages of cars and tracks the first of which is a new pack of cars that will be available for online competition.
Game of the Month: June 2003
June 30, 2003 - With all the videogames that come out each and every month, it can be quite a difficult task to decide which title to spend your hard-earned money on. Granted you could go by our review scores alone and weed through the long list of games in search of something that scored high or low, but what if you had somewhere else to turn to? Rather than wait until the end of the year like we normally do, your incredibly masculine friends at IGN.com have decided to employ a monthly tribute to the weeks that were. We're resolved to illustrate to our readers what we thought was the very best game for each system in the past month, and tell you exactly the reason why. And not only are we going to do it on the last Friday of each and every month in 2003, we'll be speaking in unison instead of individually. While some of us often chime in with our comments at the end of reviews, for the most part, the reviews on IGN are primarily written by one editor. We get all of the editors on a particular channel to vote in our Game of the Month feature, so you get a well-rounded view of what we all think deserves the highest accolade of the best game in the past 30 days.
Midtown Madness 3 Review
June 18, 2003 - You'd think with games like GTA III and Vice City driving the market that huge, organic cityscapes would have become commonplace in the world of videogames. But they haven't. Since Vice City, attempts at creating such large-scale working worlds have paled in comparison. Enter Midtown Madness 3. Although it is a much different experience than Vice City, MM3 offers some of the most fleshed-out game environments we've seen this or any year. It boasts two fully functioning metropolises for gamers to frolic in, and the cities are quite amazing to behold. But is the game that takes place within them worth playing? Indeed it is. The third installment in a series begun on the PC, Midtown Madness 3 is at its heart a street racer. But it doesn't boast merely the souped-up, tricked out rides of Midnight Club 2. Instead, in MM3, you'll race everything from a garbage truck to a MINI Cooper to a Chevy SSR, and you'll do it in the very recognizable confines of Washington D.C. and Paris. While the single player experience is fulfilling (if a bit predictable), this game is all about the multiplayer, especially on Xbox Live. If you own Xbox Live and like racing games, MM3 is a no-brainer. In fact, if you like racing games at all, this is a reason to get an Xbox and Xbox Live.
Multiplayer Madness
June 2, 2003 - Take a fire truck, a Cadilac Escalade, a cherry Mustang, and a Lotus, send them speeding down side streets and bolting toward ramps in the hopes of barreling into an opponent and snatching their gold or instantly transform the hunted into a hunter in a game of cat-and-mouse tag, and what have you got? The insanely frantic and already addicting Xbox Live experience of Midtown Madness 3, that's what.
Mad Mockumentary
April 4, 2003 - This is Spinal Tap... err Midtown Madness 3. Full video inside.
MM3: Multiplayer Mania
March 13, 2003 - It starts off with one player "it" as the Hunter. As he smashes into other players, the Prey, they too become Hunters in pursuit of the remaining Preys. It's like Night of the Living Dead at 180 mph.
Release Date Madness!
March 4, 2003 - Microsoft Game Studios has finally nailed down a specific date for the release of Midtown Madness 3. And the winning day is.......
Road Trip #2: Paris
February 28, 2003 - One of these days, we'll all be zipping around the streets of Paris and Washington DC chasing down gold treasures with online competitors in Midtown Madness 3 and most likely singing the praises of Xbox Live because of it. For anybody familiar with the previous editions of Midtown Madness on the PC, you all know that the online multiplayer competitions will be the lifeblood of the up coming Xbox version of the game. We figured we'd take this time to point out the accuracy and level of detail the Digital Illusions is including in the game since, more than likely it will all become a blur at 85mph while you're playing Midtown Madness 3.
Road Trip: DC
February 21, 2003 - Our tour of the landmarks of DC, as presented by Midtown Madness 3 begins with the Washington Monument. It's a giant 555 foot obelisk whose story is a microcosm of how things do and do not get done in the United States of America. Many of you may remember George Washington from such places as the front of a one dollar bill, but the first American president and conquering general of the Revolutionary War didn't have a full fledged monument in his honor until 1888. During the 112 years that passed between Washington's nail-biting victory over the tea-sipping British army and the opening of the tower, the project was delayed by the Civil War, politics, funding, design issues and objections from Washington himself.
Midtown Showroom: Audi S4 Avant
January 7, 2003 - Driving around in huge cities with all of your online buddies is going to be the next big thing on Xbox Live once 2003 rolls around. Midtown Madness 3 will be the vehicle for that experience and just to get Xbox owners ready for the next wave of Xbox Live thrills, we're presenting our series of Midtown Showroom features.
Midtown Madness 3 Hands On
December 10, 2002 - If you can tear yourselves away from all of the new content and old fun in MechAssault this coming spring, you may find that Midtown Madness 3 is looking to copy the same formula as MA with a single player game that unlocks cool new stuff for the robust online multiplayer experience. Even though our most recent go round with MM3 didn't include any Xbox Live gaming --we've seen menu options for it though-- we do have an even clearer understanding of how online and offline Midtown Madness 3 will work together.
Midtown Showroom: Corvette Z06
December 9, 2002 - Driving around in huge cities with all of your online buddies is going to be the next big thing on Xbox Live once 2003 rolls around. Midtown Madness 3 will be the vehicle for that experience and just to get Xbox owners ready for the next wave of Xbox Live thrills, we're presenting our series of Midtown Showroom features.
Midtown Showroom: H2
November 26, 2002 - Rumor has it that the H2 runs on pure testosterone instead of gasoline. The H2's predecessor, the original Humvee, was showcased in all kinds of military-themed movies and shows back in the early 1990s. These days, ghetto fabulous music videos are the strongest marketing tool for an impractical, four-wheel drive land warrior like this one.
Two Maddening Online Modes
November 14, 2002 - We reveal two of the online game modes for Midtown Madness 3.
Midtown Showroom: Mini Cooper
November 13, 2002 - Check under the hood of the fine motor vehicles of Midtown Madness 3.
Midtown Madness 3 Interview
October 21, 2002 - We ride shotgun and bend a corner with the game's lead designer.

New Wine Bar for Dorchester?
7:49am 2nd May 2013
(Updated 8:11am 2nd May 2013)
A swanky wine bar could be coming to Dorchester.
Plans for the new venture have been submitted to West Dorset District Council
The proposed wine bar would be situated right in the heart of the town centre on South Street, where the old Starbucks used to be on the corner.
The people behind the plans say it'll be a quality establishment aimed at professionals aged between 25 and 55, serving coffee and cakes in the morning and antipasti, quality rolls and food in the afternoons. They aim to specialise in local produce too.
Developers also say it won't be a club or young person's venue.
The Council says a number of factors need to be considered before it's given the green light.
Residents have until May 10th to comment on the application.

The gene Atu4242 (AGR_L_1239) from Agrobacterium tumefaciens encodes the NP_356412 protein, a member of the NIPSNAP family PF07978. Genome context analysis provides several relevant hits (score above 0.9) with an aldehyde dehydrogenase (Atu4241) and an alkanal monooxygenase (AGR_L_1243).
Another crystal structure of the protein from the same organism is available 2AP6. 1vqs belongs to the class of alpha and beta proteins and reveals a ferredoxin-like fold type SCOP54861, inside the NIPSNAP family. DALI top hit is with the Atu5224 protein PDB:1vqy (Z=19).
The NIPSNAP family proteins have putative roles in the vesicular transport [Ref]. Curiously, Agrobacterium tumefaciens seems to have an isoform NP_396154.1 of this protein with 51% sequence identity 1VQY. Although, as individual subunits these proteins appear to be very similar, the protein encoded by NP_396154.1, is perfectly organized into a volt-like superstructure. In contrast, the product of NP_356412.1 seems to form simple homodimers.
