Months after his arrest in Turkey for planning terrorism acts on Australians, Melbourne-born top Islamic State recruiter Neil Prakash is begging the government to help him as he faces international criminal proceedings.
Turkey agreed in March to a request from the Australian government to extradite Prakash, who has been linked to several Australia-based attack plans and has appeared in Islamic State videos and magazines.
Australia alleges that Prakash actively recruited Australian men, women and children and encouraged acts of terrorism.
The Australian government wrongly reported in 2015, based on US intelligence, that Prakash had been killed in an airstrike in Mosul, Iraq. It later confirmed one of the nation's most notorious terrorists, also known as Abu Khalid al-Cambodi, was detained in Turkey.
The government announced financial sanctions against him in 2015, including anyone giving him financial assistance, with punishment of up to 10 years in jail.
Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull had previously described him as "ruthless".
Turkish officials caught him trying to cross the Turkish-Syrian border on October 24 arrest and Prakash has since been detained in a maximum security jail in Gaziantep, near the border.
Foreign Minister Julie Bishop confirmed Prakash has sought consular assistance for the Turkish proceedings.
A special permit was needed to assist Prakash, because he had previously been listed as a proscribed person, which would implicate anyone who assisted him as guilty of a crime.
It was revealed consular officials had provided Prakash "basic'' aid, including liaison with local authorities and two jail visits so far.
Ms Bishop told News Corp Turkish criminal proceedings would need to be resolved before his extradition to Australia.
"If he were surrendered to Australia I expect him to face prosecution for very serious offences,'' she said.
- 'Dead' Australian ISIS recruiter Neil Prakash found alive
- [[[Authorities]](https://au.news.yahoo.com/a/34551132/australian-terror-fighters-could-return-from-syria-through-loopholes-in-law/#page1|Authorities) 'tracked Australia's most wanted terrorist for months' before arrest
- Australian terror fighters could return home through loopholes in law
- Turnbull confirms ISIS terrorist Neil Prakash to face Australian justice
The 27-year-old was born in Melbourne to a Fijian father and a Cambodian mother and converted to Islam in 2012.
He had been in contact with Sydney schoolboy killer Fahad Jabar and Melbourne teen Numan Haider, who was shot dead after stabbing two police officers.
Prakash was also alleged to be the international point of contact in the plot to behead a police officer on Anzac Day.
In early 2013 he travelled to Syria, with his Australian passport cancelled 18 months later.
Prakash admitted to a Turkish court that he trained at an Islamic State camp in al-Raqqa, then went to the front line and fought with a Kalashnikov weapon against the Kurds, News Corp reported.
"We fought for about two weeks. I used Kalashnikov guns. I don't know if I killed any members of the PYD/PKK in the fights I took part in,'' he said.
He reportedly told police in Turkey he married a Dutch jihadi bride while in Syria fighting for Islamic State and fathered two children. Australian descent laws entitle citizenship for any child born overseas by at least one Australian parent.
The children and their mother are believed to still be in Syria, however the foreign minister has refused to comment on the status of any children.
Earlier reports suggested Islamic State militants in the Middle East used a drone strike to murder a baby, believed to be Prakash's, as he attempted to flee the caliphate and return to Australia. The identity of Prakash's wife is unclear.
Australia continues its bid to bring Prakash home to face Australian justice.
He is expected to be charged with foreign fighting offences with terrorist groups in Syria and Iraq. If convicted, Prakash would face life in prison.

The International Symposium on High Mountain Remote Sensing Cartography (HMRSC) was back in Kathmandu after 16 years, coinciding with the 25 years anniversary celebration of the International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD).
The 10th International Symposium on High Mountain Remote Sensing Cartography (HMRSC-X) was organised by ICIMOD from 8-11 September 2008 with support from the European Space Agency (ESA) and GIS Development in collaboration with the International Cartography Association (ICA), Austria; Graz University of Technology (TU Graz), Austria; University of Graz (UNI Graz), Austria; and Eurasia Pacific UNINET, Austria.
Mountain geography is composed of diverse physical, cultural, and socio-ecological settings that play together as the single most dominant factor influencing sustainable development. Sustainable development demands special attention in mountain areas because of the remoteness, vastly varying socio-ecological conditions, and distinct spatial and temporal characteristics found in these regions. GIS (geographic information systems) and remote sensing tools and methods provide a useful means to investigate key components of social, economic, and environmental conditions through systematic generation of data indicating their present situation and changing status through space and time.
More than 180 participants from 18 different countries met to discuss five specific themes in six sessions: 1) Remote Sensing Technology, Image Processing and Cartography; 2) Monitoring and Environment; 3) Morphology and Hazard Mapping; 4) Himalaya from Space; and 5) Cryosphere and Water. A poster session highlighted the themes and special sessions were held on the Brahmatwinn Project, Eurasia-Pacific Uninet, and GIS Development.
Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Andreas Schild, Director General of ICIMOD, said: "The importance of the earth observation tools and techniques is immense in generating information for better understanding and solving problems related to climate change issues, disaster risk reduction, and environmental management."
Dr. Manfred Buchroithner of the International Cartography Association (ICA), Austria, and founder of the HMRSC symposia series, elaborated on the bi-annual journey of HMRSC since 1990: "The present day trend in RS techniques to adopt automatic ground features extraction is useful for mountain specific applications and natural resources management." Other speakers included Dr. M S R Murthy from the National Remote Sensing Centre of India, Basanta Shrestha from ICIMOD, and Dr. Jürg Lichtenegger from the European Space Agency (ESA).
Participants discussed how the fast developing techniques enable more precise monitoring of glaciers and glacial lakes and preparation of mountain hazard and risk maps, and provide instruments for the planning and management of natural resources. The symposium provided a platform for professionals and academicians from the region to share and learn from each others'; experiences and establish networks.
Such formal and informal linkages will go a long way in developing capacities and applications of the tools and technology for the benefit of the region.
Two pre-symposium training programmes on earth observation awareness preceded this symposium for teachers from different higher secondary schools of Nepal, and for university teachers from five different countries of the region.
The Nepal GIS Society, EduSpace of European Space Agency (ESA), Eurasia-Pacific UNINET, and Austrian Academy of Sciences-GIScience from Salzburg, Austria were involved in the training programmes. The symposium was followed by two field excursions to the Khumbu region from 12-19 September, and a day field trip to the Kodari region on 12 September.

Your Questions Answered: Workplace First Aid
Date: Thursday, 04 May 2017. -
Blog, First Aid, First Aid Emergencies, Training
Whether you work in an office building, a leisure centre with a pool or on a busy building site, a First Aid at Work qualification is an absolute must for any company.
It is the legal duty of the employer to ensure that staff are provided with adequate equipment, facilities and personnel to ensure that immediate attention is received, should one of the team fall ill or suffer an injury whilst at work.
We get asked many questions regarding workplace first aid, so to help boost your knowledge around the subject, we've answered the hot topics we encounter most when discussing workplace first aid.
What is First Aid at Work?
First Aid at Work is a qualification which simply delivers help and/ or assistance to someone who has been injured or who has fallen ill whilst at work.
The type of First Aid that is delivered to the casualty will depend on a variety of factors. Some of these could include:
- The severity of the injury
- The environment
- The availability of First Aid essentials
- The training level of the responder
As previously stated, it is the responsibility of the employer to implement appropriate first aid precautions for their employees. These should be done in accordance with Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981 and apply to all workplaces and to those who are self-employed and have less than five employees.
What Should a Workplace First Aid Kit Contain?
The findings of the first aid needs assessment will influence what needs to be included in your workplace's First Aid kit.
An example of a first aid kit contents could be:
- Plasters
- Sterile eye pads
- Triangular bandages (individually wrapped and sterile)
- Safety pins
- Disposable gloves
Employers can refer to British Standard BS 8599 which provides information on the contents of a workplace's First Aid kit.
Some items which should be included in your workplace's first aid kit should be replaced prior to the expiry date on the packaging. These items will usually be the sterile items and will need to be used before the expiry date is reached. There is no set guidelines for replacing the goods in your first aid kit, but having an appointed first aid kit minder will assist in ensuring your kit is always stocked up and ready to be used in a medical emergency at work.
How Can I Learn First Aid?
The only way to learn the skills required for workplace first aid is to enrol onto a First Aid at Work course.
In-house first aid courses are a popular choice for small and large businesses alike. This training format is usually a class of 12 where a trainer will physically demonstrate what needs to be done in certain scenarios and the learners will be tested.
If your employer doesn't want to disrupt your daily duties, then E-Learning courses might be an option for you and other employees. Imperative's E-Learning platform allows you to improve your first aid skills whenever you have the time on any computer or device that is connected to the Internet.
If there are just a few of you who wish to be qualified in First Aid at Work, Open Courses are the perfect solution for you. You simply choose a time and place that suits you and book onto the course.
First Aid Ready
So, there you have it. We hope we've covered everything you could think of when it comes to workplace first aid.
If you still have an unanswered question about first aid within the workplace, head on over to our Twitter page @imptraining and tweet us what you'd like to learn more about – we're always happy to help!

BY Laurie Watt, STAFF October 29, 2009 06:10
Barrie's Accessibility Advisory Committee got into the business of teaching customer service to the Greater Barrie Chamber of Commerce and Downtown Barrie.
Thanks to the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA), municipalities have had to set up committees to help implement a series of provincial regulations that break down barriers for people with disabilities – be they physical (including vision and hearing losses), intellectual or mental health.
Last Thursday, Barrie's committee outlined not only the new accessibility law, but also reminded local businesses of the basics of talking to people – whether they have a disability or not.
The keys are to take time to observe, ask questions, and listen to responses and suggestions on how to accommodate the customer.
"Sometimes it's not as hard as you think it might be. It may be as simple as grinding down a front step or installing a portable ramp. Fifteen per cent of Canadians have some form of disability, and we have the spending power of $25 billion per year. It's a huge market to be tapping into, especially in these times," said accessibility advisory committee chairperson Kim Demberline.
Made law in 2005, the AODA sets out a series of targets to break down barriers: customer service, the built environment, employment, communication and transportation. Municipalities and public agencies must, by January, offer good customer service to all – regardless of ability or disability.
Stores and others in the business of customer service have until January 2012.
Just after that, information and communication must be accessible by 2013 in the private sector. All other compliance dates have yet to be determined.
And although the goal of the AODA is to make the province accessible by 2025, the first step of changing attitudes can seem like the biggest.
"It's going to be a shock to people. The first part (of the changes) is attitudinal," said Demberline. "We'll get into (improving) the built environment later."
All too often, clerks will talk to an able-bodied companion or support worker, rather than the customer who has a disability, a provincial awareness video showed.
Even worse are looks from clerks who are quick to judge. Accessibility advisory committee member Micheline Crocker, who has a hearing loss, said one saleslady asked her if she could help her.
"I didn't know she was talking to me. She made a face," Crocker recalled. "If I'm not paying attention, I couldn't see if she was talking to me. (The saleslady) had to find another way to get my attention."
Still, Margaretta Pap-Belayneh, who is visually impaired, said store layouts can add to the challenges.
"Sometimes the goods and racks are so close together, and I have difficulty navigating between them. A person in a wheelchair would have even more difficulty," she said. "Glass and chrome and bright lights make for glare."

Construction is expected to begin soon on a playground area project at Bergfeld Park, City of Tyler Parks Board members were told Monday.
The project includes rebuilding and expanding the park's play area.
During the board's regular meeting, City of Tyler Parks and Recreation Director Stephanie Rollings spoke about the design for the playground area, as well as funding.
She said the new playground area features two different levels, along with slides. Plans also include two playgrounds for different ages, a crushed granite trail, landscaping, mulch, seating areas and merry-go-round.
"I think it's a really unique playground and will be unique to Bergfeld, certainly," Ms. Rollings said.
As far as funding, various churches in the area are donating to the project, she said.
She said with additional funding from half-cent sales tax revenue, the project likely will be able to start next budget year, which begins in October.
The playground area is only the first phase of the master plan for Bergfeld Park.
Tyler City Councilman Don Warren, chairman of the Bergfeld Park Improvement Project, said in March that the second phase involves focusing on Broadway Avenue landscaping, as well as signage and improvements to "Splasher," the dolphin water feature.
Also included in the master plan, he previously said, is tree trimming and picnic pads, improvements to the tennis courts, improved lighting and ultimately renovations to the amphitheater.
Ms. Rollings said fundraising for the first phase continues until October, and the more money that comes in through fundraising, the more half-cent sales tax revenue that can be transitioned into another phase of the master plan.
"It really depends on what ends up happening before October," Ms. Rollings said.
City Engineer Carter Delleney also gave an update on the proposed extension of the South Tyler Trails to Faulkner Park.
Ms. Rollings said in May that residents will be able to use that trail extension for commuting and fitness.
Once the extension is built, "they can realistically get from Robert E. Lee (High School), which is the Loop (323), all the way to ... Faulkner," she said.
Delleney said the initial hope was the trail extension could be part of the Cumberland Road extension project, but that is not a reality. The Cumberland Road project, which is proposed as a four-lane road with sidewalks, currently is under construction and is projected to be complete in summer 2016.
Delleney said the city knew it wanted to have a trail connection as well, so it had a consultant, Brannon Corp., work on possible locations for the trail, which will connect to Faulkner Park.
For now, he said, the trail is still in the planning phase.
Although a solid route has not been identified, he did say that the trail won't be one single path.
The trail project is anticipated to cost about $3 million. Delleney said he believes the construction timeline should take about a year from start to finish. He said construction should begin once funding is allocated in the half-cent program.
He said the trail is not in the budget next fiscal year and will be looked at for possible grants in the future.

Re: Red Caboose ACF Box Car with 4-3-1 Ends and Riveted Sides
Benjamin Hom
Steve Kay asked:
"I picked up a nice kit at the Berea Train Show Saturday -- a old, undecorated Red Caboose box car. The label says it is a 40' ACF Box Car, 4-3-1 ends, 8' door, riveted sides and standard tab side sill. (Kit # RC-8700). I figured I look it up in my books and magazines, pick out a scheme and have a nice addition to my roster. (The kit cost me $7.00.) doing some research today shows me that Reading and KCS had these and that's about it. The car has 10-panel sides. A few other roads had 12 panel sides, or drop sills and a lot had 6- or 7-foot doors, not 8.
Most of the info I found came from RailModel Journal in 1989-90 (the are talking about using C&BT kits to model these!)
Am I missing something, or did RC put our a rare car?:
These two Ed Hawkins spreadsheets should help out your search:

Asia Pacific Media Educator
Theory is often thought of as a carrybag into to which is tossed various ideas, -isms, concepts and thoughts that can then be "welded" to graphic design products in a concrete and vivid way -- a notion of theory as value-added service. We end up with a split between theory and design which defeats the role of theory as a critical and analytical part of the design business or education program. This article argues that it is a false economy to have such an oppositional split between theory and practice or studies and production.

TTA is delighted to announce that Assessor/Trainers, Sharron Sugden and Julie Ann Kirkham have successfully completed and passed part 3 of the DSA Instructor's Register, and are now therefore fully qualified and registered LGV trainers. We'd like to offer Sharron and Julie our congratulations for their achievements. What was it like learning again? Well, surprisingly better than expected is the short answer. Here's what Sharron and Julie thought of the experience.
Sharron and Julie Ann
"We took the examination on the 19th December. To get the qualification you had to be examined by a DSA examiner whilst instructing a live learner. We didn't know the person we were instructing; all we knew was that they were part way through their driver training qualification. There were 3 parts to the examination: fault analysis – that is identifying his faults whilst driving, rectifying those faults there and then and you were also judged on how you controlled the lesson."
"Oh definitely. It was a full-on experience, made worse in a way because myself and Julie (Kirkham) took the examination in a new place to us – Widnes. We didn't know the place at all so didn't have the benefit of having any routes already planned out. What that meant was that the examiner had to give us the route information as we were driving, and then we had to relay that information on to the learner."
Julie Ann
"I don't think I found the experience difficult because really it's just a reflection of what I'm doing on a daily basis. I did brush on a few things beforehand to smooth the way. I suppose I did find it slightly nerve-wracking though, because you're being scrutinised by the instructor and to a lesser extent by the live -learner. However, it wasn't scary. Once I got going I was OK; I just did what I do on a daily basis and that seemed to be fine."
"I was a little frustrated at times because I missed a couple of things that I would normally do automatically. Maybe that was simply down to nerves on the day. The good thing was both the instructor and the live learner were both really nice people. The instructor was very experienced and very approachable and made me feel relaxed. He also gave me some very useful feedback and constructive advice which I'll take forward in my career in the future. The live learner too was very nice and helpful and was very keen to make sure I did well."
"It was a little alien being in an area I wasn't familiar with (Widnes). I suppose in normal everyday driving you're working in a comfort zone because you know where you're going. However, that extra hurdle was offset by the fact that we were instructing on an automatic vehicle, rather than the usual manual range change. That meant it was easier to concentrate and plan ahead whilst on the road."
Sharron and Julie
"Yes we have: we're now fully qualified on what was formerly the DSA Instructors Register, although since January this has now been changed to RTITB – the new regulatory body for workplace transport training and accreditation. But regardless of the change of name, we can now say that we are fully qualified and registered LGV instructors."
"I would personally, because I teach apprenticeships and part of that training involves preparing and training drivers to qualify for licence upgrades and taking LGV tests. What the examination did bring back to me is how nerves can alter your perception and performance on the day. You forget about those things."
"I passed the first part of my DSA qualification in 1989 and got my LGV licence then. So having to do it all again 27 years later as well as the theory part of the examination was quite an eye- opener. In spite of that I still felt it was a really rewarding experience. I hope to utilise the knowledge and lessons I learned to help my own students in the future. Having been through the training myself, I now understand how my students must be feeling and I can empathise with them. Hopefully I can use those experiences to make me a better and more-understanding teacher."
Julie Ann
"Absolutely. I think if you talk to drivers from other schools, they don't really see why it's necessary to get this qualification. Personally I see the qualification as a validation. It proves to me that I am able to drive and instruct to a good standard. It also tells me I have a good knowledge and understanding of driving and training. I think it's vital for our customers to know that they're being trained by someone who is fully qualified and has a proven track record. At the end of the day I think it gives me extra credence as an instructor."

We have just been off to a couple of the battlefields of France which have great meaning to me. Yesterday it was Azincourt and today Crecy, 1415 and 1346 respectively. Not great successes for the French but the museum at Azincourt was the best of its kind I have yet seen (and I have seen many). If, for example, you would like to find out what the field of vision was for someone wearing armour or how heavy one of the broadswords was, this is where you can find out. Not many French visitors, as you can imagine, but both were very well served.
Now onto a different kind of historic site, Jean-Baptiste Say's cotton mill and his local historian, M. Zephyr Tilliette. They are trying to preserve Say and his memory in Auchy–les-Hesdin where the factory is. Longer story than the one I currently know, but I will know much more later on.

Six Siege Map for Minecraft 1.11.2
Minecraft Six Siege is a thrilling PvP map that's no doubt a step above what we're using to seeing from this map category. PvP maps in Minecraft are quite intense but most of them utilize the same overused concepts and this is why they don't usually feel unique or innovative. Minecraft Six Siege, however, goes in the completely opposite direction. The map's been inspired directly by Rainbow Six Siege which is a tactical first person shooter game and it does an excellent job of replicating Rainbow Six Siege's gameplay within Minecraft to give players something that's refreshing and immersive.
If you've played Rainbow Six Siege before then you'll have absolutely no difficulty getting the hang of Minecraft Six Siege's basics but, if you haven't played the game that the map's based off of, you'll need to spend some time getting used to the basics early on. The map has two different team and one team plays the role of the defender whereas the other team plays the role of the attacker. The defending team spawns on bomb sites and their goal is to defend the bomb for as long as they can whereas the goal of the attacking team is to siege the defenders so that they can defuse the bomb before it explodes. The gameplay might seem pretty straightforward on paper but it's highly strategic and an absolute delight to experience. To succeed at this map, you'll need proper coordination with your teammates and must constantly think of new strategies through which you'll be able to annihilate your opponents.
It's important to remember that you'll need proper sound to experience Minecraft Six Siege properly because sound plays a huge role in the gameplay. With proper sound, you'll be able to hear enemies through walls and this will tell you their positions. Playing without sound puts players at a massive disadvantage so we highly recommend having a proper sound setup when you play this map because you'll struggle quite a lot otherwise.
How to install Minecraft Six Siege Map?
- Press the Windows or Start button, then press R. This will open the Run prompt.
- Type %appdata% into the prompt and run the command.
- A folder filled with other folders will now open. Just find the Minecraft folder among these and open it.
- In .minecraft you will find another folder, saves. Unzip and move your world file into this folder and you're all done.

Columbus, OH – August 1, 2016 – Travelers have spoken and they say in-room Wi-Fi is more important to them than a hotel's location, parking and even complimentary breakfast!*[1] The Research+Data Insights survey found that complimentary Wi-Fi came in second only to cost when considering booking a hotel stay. That's why Red Roof Inn is taking their Wi-Fi service to new levels at their hotels across the country, testing and then boosting the ability of Red Roof hotels to increase Wi-Fi to high speeds…..speeds that will allow guests to stream their favorite movies, video games and music when staying at a Red Roof property. To date, properties in Statesville, NC, Washington D.C. – Manassas and Syracuse, NY have been audited, verified and qualified for certification based on their audit results.
"Fast. Free. Verified. That's our goal for Red Roof Wi-Fi across the country," says Andrew Alexander, President, Red Roof. "We have listened to our guests and have responded to their immediate needs when choosing where to stay. Whether it's a business traveler who needs Wi-Fi to stay connected on the road or a millennial who wants to stream music or play video games, high-speed Wi-Fi is integral to today's traveler no matter who they are."
The Verified Wi-Fi initiative is starting now in a test phase. Red Roof has already upgraded at some properties and will start communicating that to travelers with advertising on properties that have billboards with the "Verified Wi-Fi" logo touting "Fast + Free."
The Research+Data Insights survey found that 80% of economy travelers have a more favorable opinion of a hotel offering complimentary Wi-Fi with guaranteed speeds. Red Roof intends to offer those guaranteed speeds at all properties in its 470+ portfolio. Sites that may soon have Fast. Free. Verified. Wi-Fi (currently undergoing audits) include Buffalo – Niagara Airport, Pittsburgh South – Airport, Ann Arbor – U of Michigan North, Chicago – Willowbrook, Austin South, and Nashville Airport.
"Red Roof is investing in upgraded systems," says Marina MacDonald, CMO, Red Roof. "And we expect a return on investment: more satisfied customers who will have unlimited streaming options as well as increased bookings and additional RediCard memberships…….ultimately enhancing our reputation as an upscale economy brand."
The Research+Data Insights survey also found that millennials are two times more likely than other age groups to stream video or music and play online games using hotel Wi-Fi. So Red Roof is encouraging travelers to visit their Fast. Free. Verified. properties in Statesville, Washington, DC and Syracuse this summer where they can quickly download and stream their favorite sites and music apps including Netflix, Amazon Video, Apple Music, Spotify, and video games like World of Warcraft and League of Legends.
Travelers will also be able to participate in fun, fast and free activities in those cities including a hot air balloon ride at the Carolina BalloonFest in Statesville; Tarzan swings and breathtakingly fast zip lines at Go Ape's Treetop Adventure near Washington, D.C. and enjoying the craft brewery scene in Syracuse.
Red Roof has seen significant growth both domestically and internationally with two new properties in Brazil within the last year, and most recently another in Osaka, Japan. There are now 40 PLUS+ properties in the U.S. with a total of 50 expected by the end of the year. Red Roof expects to end 2016 with 500 properties in its portfolio.
[1] Quantitative survey conducted by Research+Data Insights with 800 economy and mid-tier travelers nationwide from May 24–30, 2016.

Elizabeth Bishop, "Large Bad Picture"
Remembering the Strait of Belle Isle or
some northerly harbor of Labrador,
before he became a schoolteacher
a great-uncle painted a big picture.
Receding for miles on either side
into a flushed, still sky
are overhanging pale blue cliffs
hundreds of feet high,
their bases fretted by little arches,
the entrances to caves
running in along the level of a bay
masked by perfect waves.
On the middle of that quiet floor
sits a fleet of small black ships,
square-rigged, sails furled, motionless,
their spars like burnt match-sticks.
And high above them, over the tall cliffs'
semi-translucent ranks,
are scribbled hundreds of fine black birds
hanging n's in the banks.
One can hear their crying, crying,
the only sound there is
except for occasional sighing
as a large aquatic animal breathes.
In the pink light
the small red sun goes rolling, rolling,
round and round and round at the same height
in perpetual sunset, comprehensive, consoling,
while the ships consider it.
Apparently they have reached their destination.
It would be hard to say what brought them here,
commerce or contemplation.
~ ~ ~
I recently picked up a copy of Elizabeth Bishop's Complete Poems, and it has been an incredible read so far. What I especially love about her work is her use of rhyme. She doesn't draw attention to it the way old poets used to, constructing elaborate mechanisms to build rhyme structures into their poems. Bishop uses her rhymes casually but deliberately, like the way you might crack an egg into a frying pan. Rhyme in this fashion adds another level to the wordplay of the poem, amplifying meaning across words and lines, without erecting an artificial structure to hold the thing up. This is exactly why rhyme is used in poetry and why it is so important, a reason often lost on poets across generations.

I'm sure everyone running projects like ours says at some point 'we couldn't have done this without our volunteers'- in this case it is so true! This week we are joining the the celebrations for National Volunteers' Week to say a big Thank You to our volunteers
The Festival in March could only happen because people volunteered to speak, brought stands and activities and acted as stewards. Thanks also to the great student volunteers who joined us for that day. Without volunteers we couldn't have spent the day celebrating #StrongEssexWomen
The stories told in our travelling exhibition were researched by volunteers across Essex who uncovered photographs, dug around in museum archives, hunted out newspaper clippings, tracked family records, visited record offices and helped transcribe oral histories and notebooks. The exhibition itself was created by volunteers who took the time to come along to training to help with this and then put this training in action by writing the panels you can see at some of our partner museums.
In the last two weeks we have managed to get a stand out at events and spoken to nearly 400 people – this wouldn't have happened without Jo and Lily- so thank you! Jo and Yvonne will be at the Planet Essex Festival at Cressing Temple Barns on June 22nd– come along and chat to them.
We also have a large group of volunteers who regularly spend a few minutes online sharing stories and news about the project and our partner museums. Every minute counts and we estimate that this team of social media champions have contributed 28 hours to the project and helped us spread news and stories much more widely than we could have without them.
Have a look at the variety of volunteer challenges still live – even if you can only spare us a few minutes every contribution is valuable and valued
So far, we have been helped and supported by more than 200 volunteers and we are proud to be able to say that the success of this project is largely due to the people of Essex joining us to celebrate the amazing achievements of Essex women over the last 100 years.

Singer Sevyn Streeter was scheduled to perform the national anthem prior to the Philadelphia 76ers home game against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday night. And during her performance of "The Star-Spangled Banner," Streeter planned to make a strong statement. She wanted to wear a jersey that said "We Matter" on the front of it. However, the 76ers told her that she couldn't wear it, and after she refused to change into a different shirt for her performance, the team ultimately decided to pull the plug and tell her that she wasn't going to be allowed to sing. Sevyn Streeter also spoke with ESPN and revealed how the situation played out behind the scenes. "I'd say two minutes before we were about to walk out…the organization told me that I could not wear my shirt while singing the national anthem at their game," she said. "I was never given any kind of dress code. I was never asked beforehand to show my wardrobe."
The Sixers turned to one of their team's cheerleaders to sing the national anthem, and she did a nice job with it. But now, both the Sixers and the NBA are under fire for not allowing Sevyn Streeter to put on the performance she was planning. Both organizations have declined to comment publicly on why the singer's performance was canceled last minute, but the Sixers did release a short statement about it. "The Philadelphia 76ers organization encourages meaningful actions to drive social change," the statement said. "We use our games to bring people together, to build trust, and to strength our communities. As we move from symbolic gestures to action, we will continue to leverage our platform to positively impact our community."
Sevyn Streeter isn't buying it. She told ESPN that she was "angry, extremely, extremely angry" about the way the Sixers handled her performance and said she was "really looking forward" to it. And while the Sixers were probably wary of allowing her to perform after watching a woman sing the national anthem on one knee while wearing a "Black Lives Matter" shirt prior to a preseason game against the Heat earlier this month, it's hard to blame her for being upset. Especially since the Sixers haven't really offered up a good explanation as to why they canceled her performance.
Do you think she should have been allowed to sing the national anthem at the Thunder/76ers game—or do the 76ers have a right to cancel a performance if they suspect a singer might try to make a statement during it?

"Sesame Street" turns 45 this season and to sustain its digital relevance, PBS Kids and Sesame Workshop are debuting their first app, Cookie Monster's Challenge, geared to 3- to-5-year-old kids. "Sesame Street" has long utilized TV to help children build educational skills.
Available at the App Store on iPad Sept. 15, the Cookie Monster app is designed to teach self-control, focus and problem-solving.
There are 10 mini-games and nine levels, plus a feature that creates profiles for each player, so they can progress at their own pace.
"We've created a series of fun brain-building games designed to challenge and engage young children and to help Cookie get what he desires the most—a cookie!" stated Scott Chambers, senior vice president, Worldwide Media Distribution, Sesame Workshop. "As children play, they practice important skills that are essential for school readiness."
Cookie Monster's Challenge promotes the same school skills as the TV show, which is adding new installments of "Cookie's Crumby Pictures," a five-minute segment in which Cookie Monster helps kids learn various coping strategies. The new season will also include new "Elmo the Musical" and "Super Grover 2.0" segments.
A half-hour "Sesame Street" will complement the regular series on weekends and weekday afternoons. Abby's Sandbox Search, a new game that focuses on letters, letter sounds and alliteration, kicks off on pbskids.org/sesame this fall.
"Sesame Street" reaches 156 million children in over 150 countries.

LAREDO, Texas — A local man was sentenced to 41 months in federal prison for facilitating the attempted smuggling of nearly 12,000 rounds of assault rifle ammunition, announced U.S. Attorney Kenneth Magidson.
This investigation was conducted by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI); and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives; U.S. Customs and Border Protection's (CBP) Border Patrol, and the Laredo Police Department also assisted.
Luis Garcia-Ugarte, 38, was sentenced Feb. 19 to three years and five months in prison to be followed by two years of supervised release. He pleaded guilty to the charges Aug. 28, 2013.
"This sentencing sends a clear message to individuals who purchase, transport, or facilitate the attempted smuggling of weapons, ammunition and other related items. Preventing these items from being acquired from or delivered to the wrong hands is a top priority for Homeland Security Investigations," said Janice Ayala special agent in charge of HSI San Antonio. "We will continue working with our domestic and international law enforcement partners in this effort."
According to testimony, authorities learned that an individual was to purchase and provide to Garcia-Ugarte 1,500 rounds of 7.62x39mm assault rifle ammunition on Oct. 10, 2012. Federal and local authorities conducted surveillance and observed Garcia-Ugarte arrive driving a small sedan, as scheduled, at a Wal-Mart store parking lot in Laredo.
After obtaining the ammunition, Garcia-Ugarte left the parking lot and was pulled over by a Laredo Police Department (LPD) patrol officer for a traffic violation. The officer reported Garcia-Ugarte spoke only Spanish and did not possess a driver's license or any identification.
A search of the vehicle's trunk resulted in discovering an additional 8,160 rounds of assault rifle ammunition (7.62x39mm and .223-caliber). Garcia-Ugarte claimed that none of the 9,660 rounds of ammunition belonged to him. He later recanted and admitted transporting the ammunition in his car. He also admitted that he was to later transport other ammunition from his home to Mexican truck drivers who would attempt to illegally smuggle it into Mexico. Agents discovered an additional 2,318 rounds of 7.62x39mm assault rifle ammunition at his residence. A total of 11,978 rounds of ammunition was discovered and seized. All the ammunition was intercepted before it reached smugglers.
Garcia-Ugarte was permitted to remain on bond and voluntarily surrender to a U.S. Bureau of Prisons facility to be determined in the near future.
Assistant U.S. Attorneys Jose Homero Ramirez and James B. Hepburn, Southern District of Texas, prosecuted this case.
