The Comic book shop is a really nice one and is located in a fun downtown area (right by a building owned by Disney too). I took some pictures of some of the things on display when I was there. (The displays will be changing as items sell).
|I was so excited to see this prototype - I own one of the final pieces.
|This was a great piece too - a replica of the sign outside the attraction the first few years at Disneyland. The red dot meant it was sold.

Minecraft an open-world game that promotes creativity, collaboration, and problem-solving in an immersive environment where the only limit is your imagination.
Mods are add-ons allow changes Minecraft's game content from what it originally was. With Mods you can make your own world within Minecraft by programming a whole new set of rules and situations!
- Updated on: May 26, 2016
- Comments:
- Newest File: Deconstruction v2.2.7
- Release Type: Release

The Deconstruction Table Mod is a great tool for reclaiming materials from items you may not be using anymore or made by mistake. This mod adds a new kind of Crafting Table to minecraft, but not just any table… A table that is able to "undo" the work of a regular Crafting table!
It's very simple to use and functions just the opposite of a regular crafting table. Simply place the item you want the materials from in the left slot. Then just grab the materials from the right slots. It can be used on any craftable item including food.
If a normal recipe yields more than one item then you'll have to place that number of items to get the full amount of materials back. If not you'll only get the partial amount of items from the recipe. Also if you put damaged items in you'll get only a partial recipe back. While this is only a slight drawback it works great for reclaiming raw materials like diamonds or ingots if you need them in a pinch.
A great feature of this mod is the ability to reclaim enchantments from enchanted tools. Simply place the enchanted tool in the left slot and a book in the slot below it. Then when you claim the materials from the right side, the enchantment will go back to the book you placed.
Mod Spotlights:
How to install:
- Install the version of Forge that corresponds with the mod (http://files.minecraftforge.net/ Choose the installer version of Forge)

|Top Online Data Backup Rankings
Auto Cloud Backup, Multi-Cloud Search, File Sharing and Fast Transfers to/from Any Cloud Storage
LOS ANGELES, CA – July 1, 2019 — /BackupReview.info/ — Businesses of all sizes are searching for better tools and solutions to manage their ever growing content demands and requirements. Whether documents, large video files or folders, there's a need for easier management of any hybrid cloud that allows users access to both their local and cloud systems.
Acembly, a hybrid and multi-cloud management SaaS, has just released a new desktop client with auto-syncing and built in high speed file transfer that allows users access to their local storage systems and cloud storage accounts in order to access, backup, share files and optimize networks for high speed data transport.
"In the new hybrid and multi-cloud data management world, there's a need for easier management and use of leading public cloud storage services like S3, Azure and Wasabi Cloud. Users require access to their files, whether on their computer, local server room or in the cloud," says Patrick Kennedy, Co-Founder & CEO of Acembly. "With the release of Acembly's ftX client, our users now have a simple way to control and access their content across their organization while saving on costs. The ftX client will help users immediately connect to their cloud account and manage their hybrid cloud with much more efficiency."
There are other Cloud Backup, Search and High Speed File Transfer products available in the market but there is not a single solution that offers all of these features available to download and start using with the ease of Acembly. Another benefit is that the ftX client stays running on the user's system and connects with Acembly's SaaS application, giving users access to more features and control of their data requirements.
"There are millions of cloud storage users worldwide and we think it's still very early in cloud storage adoption. We're extremely focused on building products and features that deliver ease of management for any hybrid or multi-cloud user. We're building the most powerful data management feature set that supports any cloud storage for any size business or team," says Patrick Kennedy.

The Key Factor Behind a Successful Online Casino
July 25, 2019 • LIFESTYLE & SUSTAINABILITY, Uncategorized, Luxury & Lifestyle
British Prime Minister Theresa May has been accused of wanting to "cherry pick" European Union benefits in her speech setting out her Brexit priorities.
While she stressed Britain will quit membership of the EU single market when it leaves the bloc, she also said she'd seek the greatest possible access to to European markets via a separate trade agreement.
The EU's Brexit negotiator,Guy Verhofstadt was far from impressed saying May was creating an "illusion" after she outlined her plans.
European Union plans to cope with the vast numbers of migrants risking their lives crossing the Mediterranean to get to Europe appear close to collapse.
A quota system to be imposed on member states stipulating how many refugees each country should accept is rapidly losing support with France now joining the "No" camp.
French President François Hollande made his comments while visiting Germany:
Authorities in Brussels have charged HSBC's private banking arm, which is based in Switzerland, with helping wealthy Belgians to avoid taxes.
Prosecutors allege that hundreds of clients - including diamond dealers in Antwerp - moved money to offshore tax havens with the help of the bank.
They said it resulted in hundreds of millions of euros in lost tax revenue.
In August, HSBC warned that the penalties in relation to such allegations "could be significant".
In its annual report on the EU budget published today, the European Court of Auditors (ECA) warns that the budget system is too focused on just getting funds spent and needs to place more emphasis on achieving results. As independent auditor, the ECA signed off the 2013 accounts of the European Union, but stresses that the management of EU spending is not yet good enough overall - either at EU level or in the Member States.

Cost of education is becoming a growing concern for expatriates due to the high tuition fee charges being offered by private schools. In line with this trend, the Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA) has taken up the initiative for the growth and development of 110 new schools, accommodating 130,000 expat students in the next seven years.
The improvement of customer services in the education sector and the entry of new schools in the market is definitely a prospective step towards the growth, learning direction, and provision of better quality education for citizens. Furthermore, the entry of new schools is expected to slow down the growth of tuition fees in Dubai, as well as, bringing up more options for expat citizens to choose from.
According to Mr. Kalthoom Al Beloushi, the Director of Institutional Development at KHDA:
'There is a rising investor interest to tap Dubai's fast-growing market for education. Based on the education sector's historical growth over the last 10 years, the entry of new schools will support the improvement of schools, universities, training institutes and other human resource sectors.'

ORLEANS COUNTY, NY (WIVB) — Monday morning, Gov. Andrew Cuomo came to Olcott to declare a state of emergency along the Lake Ontario shoreline.
The higher-than-average water levels of the lake have caused concern for flooding in lakeshore communities, like Olcott.
During the last update we received, the water level was about 21 inches higher than average.
A "no wake zone" was issued within 1,000 feet of the shoreline due to the high waters.
The order follows other states of emergency issued by Monroe and Wayne counties along the lake and other waterways.
In an email Monday morning, a representative for the International Joint Commission said the agency, which oversees water levels in the lake, was increasing outflows again after heavy rain last week.
A spokesperson writes, "Lake Ontario water levels remain below the record highs of 2017, but above the criterion H14 high level that applies this time of year, authorizing the International Lake Ontario – St. Lawrence River Board to deviate from regulation Plan 2014."

Find Your Dream Home
We can't thank you enough. We know this wasn't an easy one. Your experience and professionalism really showed. Our family absolutely loves our new home, thank you again, we couldn't have done it without you.
Drew and Allison Aramany
"Mary is hands down the best realtor I have ever met! She is incredible, personable, compassionate, thoughtful, and truly goes out of her way to treat each relationship with integrity and love. She fights for the buyer and her heart is invested in making sure her client has the best possible outcome possible for their respective needs! Above all, she is an AMAZING Person!!! I highly recommend Mary to anyone that is searching for a realtor to buy or sell a property.
Derek Fiorenza
We had the absolute pleasure of working with Mary and Lindsey to purchase our first home in Gilbertsville a few months ago. We had worked with the team in the past to look at houses before we found "the one." Mary is amazing – she is super knowledgeable, worked extremely hard on behalf of us, was always responsive and patient with all our questions and requests. We had asked in the past to look at a number of houses and she was always very quick to respond and provide us with any requested information. We looked at A LOT of them – and requested information on even MORE – and she never complained or was too busy to respond. A few times when Mary was not available, we were fortunate that Lindsey was available to help us out – Lindsey is extremely knowledgeable, very helpful and made looking at houses fun. We went to one that was a little "kooky" and had a great time checking out the property with her. We knew we were in good hands with either member of the team. When we finally did decide on a house, it was an absolutely painless process – Mary dealt with our anxieties and all our questions expertly and with a smile. Neither Mary nor Lindsey were pushy AT ALL and it always felt like they had OUR best interests at heart. When the buyer asked to push out our settlement date, Mary advocated on our behalf because she knew we wanted to get into our house ASAP. We cannot say enough good things about Mary and Lindsey. We would highly, highly recommend them to any buyer or seller.
Amanda and Matt
"Mary Baker Robins helped me buy this place 19 years ago. She made stuff happen then, and she SURE made stuff happen now. Can't believe we got through this closing without a hitch during this stressful time. Certainly pays to have an agent with contacts, experience, and a level head. Thank you Mary."
Shelley Rahe
Having been a Realtor in my past, I sought out the best of the best when I was looking to purchase a new home after a divorce. I met Mary at a marketing event and was beyond impressed. She exemplifies the best qualities, such as honesty, integrity, effectiveness and efficiency and a total sense of service. She is always looking out for her customers first! She helped find the perfect home for me and made my transition so much easier with her extensive knowledge, her organizational skills and readiness preparation for me with a buyer checklist. She is currently working with my daughter to purchase my daughter's first home. I know she will take care of her as I would. She is very up to date on the laws and works extremely well with her negotiations with other realtors. She is a GEM! Whether you are looking to buy or sell, Mary has the best of skills to make your experience smooth and successful. Thanks Mary Terry Bruno
Terry Bruno Review
Really enjoyed working with Mary and Lindsey – they helped me proceed through my first time buying experience very quickly and were always responsive whenever I had questions. Would highly recommend to anyone interested in buying/selling property in the area.

Constitutional Rights Foundation, Orange County Names Knobbe Martens 2018 "Law Firm of the Year"
On October 25th, Knobbe Martens will be honored as "Law Firm of the Year" by the Constitutional Rights Foundation, Orange County (CRF-OC) at the nonprofit organization's Annual Benefit in Costa Mesa.
The firm has been an ardent supporter of CRF-OC, which is dedicated to promoting civic literacy, youth leadership and career awareness among Orange County teens, since 2009. Many Knobbe Martens attorneys volunteer in various capacities, including as mock trial score keepers and Constitution Day presenters, in support of CRF-OC's goal of helping Orange County youth better understand the U.S. Constitution and the American legal system.
Since 1981, the nonpartisan organization has organized and operated high-quality, interactive civic and law-related education programs that connect high schools directly with professionals and community leaders. CRF-OC has a long tradition of honoring firms who have contributed to its success and civic education programs.
"Winning an award is always an honor, but this one is particularly rewarding because it's not about professional accolades, our practice, or client service. It's about Knobbe Martens' commitment to serving the local community through an organization whose innovative programs have positively impacted so many lives," said Knobbe Martens partner Baraa Kahf, who will accept the award on the firm's behalf. "We believe it's vital to give our youth the opportunity to experience the American legal system from the perspective of an attorney, judge, or juror first-hand. Such immersive experiences help them develop a deeper understanding of the system, to the benefit of us all."
In addition to the Mock Trial program, which attracts approximately 800 area teenagers annually, CRF-OC carries out a unique juvenile crime diversion program. Known as "Peer Court," it provides juvenile offenders who have committed non-violent misdemeanors an opportunity to have their cases heard before a jury of their peers, providing both sides with an invaluable opportunity to experience the real-life legal system in action.

Macron weakened by departures from entourage
The head of communications at the Élysée has just announced that he is to leave his post by the end of January. Sylvain Fort, who is close to Emmanuel Macron having worked alongside him for more than two years, proclaimed his "total loyalty" to the French president. But this and reports of other possible departures from the president's inner circle have further weakened a presidency which is embroiled in the affair involving former security aide Alexandre Benalla and the ongoing social movement carried out by the so-called from the yellow vest protestors. Lénaïg Bredoux reports.
In saving migrants we save ourselves
The migrant issue has become a decisive test for all those on the Left who campaign for the emancipation of the people and equal rights for all. Mediapart publishing editor Edwy Plenel argues that far from protecting existing rights, any concession to the politics of rejection, to the favouring of one nationality over others or to policies based on borders and identity, will simply help the cause of the extreme right.
How Nicolas Hulot resignation completes bad summer for President Macron
The Benalla affair, which involved the French president's security aide, caused political damage to Emmanuel Macron at the start of France's summer break. The head of state hoped that the post-holiday resumption of political daily life would allow him to regain control of events. But following the shock resignation of his high-profile environment minister Nicolas Hulot, and with economic growth in France set to be lower than forecast this year, Macron seems once again at the mercy of events. Ellen Salvi analyses the French president's woes.

Contrary to what he has stated, President Emmanuel Macron's chief of staff Alexis Kohler has not always revealed his family links to the Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC), and in his duties as a senior public servant has not always stood aside from issues involving the giant Italian-Swiss shipping firm. Official documents from the major French port of Le Havre, seen by Mediapart, show that Kohler took part in discussions and votes concerning the company while he sat on the port's Supervisory Board as a civil servant from 2010 to 2012. Laurent Mauduit and Martine Orange investigate.
Macron's high-risk spring as he faces worker discontent
This week is the start of a critical period in Emmanuel Macron's presidency. Workers from the rail industry, Air France and the supermarket chain Carrefour have been taking industrial action while students have held sit-ins at a number of universities. The government says that these various actions with their different causes show an irrational fear of the "new world" that is dawning. In fact, argues Hubert Huertas, these protests stem from a weariness with years of talk about the need for austerity and reform - and they could yet threaten the presidency's power.

Brief Introduction of the Human Genomic Melting Map Project
The human genomic melting map is a calculated representation of cooperativity in the human genome. This implies that it provides information with respect to the probability that a DNA bubble is formed, thus providing single stranded DNA to be accessible for cellular functions. The map was established in order to provide a resource for the community to explore its biological content further. Please contact Eivind Hovig for further inquiries regarding these matters. Presently, we only provide the human genome in its hg17 incarnation, i.e. the May 2004 version. We will update with the latest release, once calculation has been completed.
The group has had a long standing interest in methods for mutation detection, and has published a significant body of papers on variations of denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis to this end. Presently, the methodology is developed for capillary electrophoresis using a cycling temperature system, for robust, cheap and fast assays using standard sequencing machines. This work has proven to us (and others) that prediction algorithms for DNA denaturation is well founded.
The source code (Fortran) is available upon request to Eivind
Hovig, and is released under the GNU GPL license. It may
be used to run chromosome length calculations. It is based on the MELT87
program, by Leonard S. Lerman, implementing the
Online tool for calculating parameters of loop entropy parameter approximation
This tool is made available to derive a parameter set for the
We here provide the raw data of the melting map, for download and further use by others. The format is compressed plain text files (chr*.txt.bz2).
Human genomic melting map browser
This resource provides functionality for browsing the actual melting profile for a given sequence of the human DNA. The graphics are handled by SVG, thus a plugin may be required, depending on your browser. Most browsers now are able to handle SVG by default.
We have also made available a possibility to use the melting map data with the Ensembl browser as a DAS source. As the data do not represent the current version of the genome, it is necessary to follow the instructions provided to view the archived version of the genome with Ensembl.
Supplementary analytical results
We here provide the inputs for the analysis described in the paper, and output where relevant.

What is air compressor?
Air compressor is a scientific device which converts mechanical energy into potential energy. The potential energy is stored in compressed air. An electric motor, diesel or gasoline engine is required to convert that mechanical energy into potential energy.
How air compressor works?
The mechanism of air compressor is quite simple. The air is compressed and stored in some kind of tank through various methods. The compressed air is kept in the tank until used. The air compressor functions automatically by turning on when the tank is empty. The air pump is different than air compressor due to function; air pump does not contain tank or storage.
Tools of air compressor
Primary tools of Air Compressor
There are two main tools of the air compressor which are called as primary tools of the air compressor. The first one is a piston. Like any engine, a piston is the essential element or tool of the air compressor. The piston contains a suction stroke, which draws air in through a valve called inlet valve from the tank of air.
When the stroke discharges, the air which was trapped moves down with the movement of the piston. The air is then released through a valve called discharge valve into the tank. A motor is required to move the piston.
The second one is a cylinder. The forced air in the tank functions as a battery. The compressed air is released from the tank when required. The compressed air is used for spraying and drill purposes. The compressed air volume is measured in cubic feet.
Cubic feet per minute(CFM)
The Cubic feet per minute (CFM) is a unit of volume. It is defined as the rate at which the compressor air called flow as measured in cubic feet per minute.
What is PSI(Pounds per square inch)
The pressure which the compressor squeezes air into the tank is measured in a unit called pounds per square inch (PSI). Single stage air compressor: The air is compressed in one stroke, hence, called a single stage air compressor. Two-stage air compressor: In a two-stage compressor, the compressor performs a double function by compressing air initially cooling it, and again compressing it to very high pressure for the second time. Two-stage compressors are mostly used for industrial purposes.
How to look for the best compressor?
Choosing the best compressor depends upon the usage of it. The specifications and job requirements of the compressors have to be kept in mind. The heavy compressors perform heavy duties, while small-scale compressors perform the micro level functions.

18.9. Rolling Your Own Servers in Python
Most of the Internet modules we looked at in the last few chapters deal with client-side interfaces such as FTP and Post Office Protocol (POP), or special server-side protocols such as CGI that hide the underlying server itself. If you want to build servers in Python by hand, you can do so either manually or by using higher-level tools.
18.9.1. Standard Library Socket Servers
We explored the sort of code needed to build servers manually in Chapter 13. Python programs typically implement servers either by using raw socket calls with threads, forks, or selects to handle clients in parallel, or by using the standard library SocketServer module. As we learned earlier, this module supports TCP and UDP sockets, in threading and forking flavors; you provide a class method invoked to communicate with clients.
Whether clients are handled manually or with Python classes, to serve requests made in terms of higher-level protocols such as FTP, the Network News Transfer Protocol (NNTP), and HTTP, you must listen on the protocol's port and add appropriate code to handle the protocol's message conventions. If you go this route, the client-side protocol modules in Python's standard library can help you understand the message conventions used.
You may also be able to uncover protocol server examples in the Demos and Tools directories of the Python source distribution and on the Net at large (search http://www.python.org or do a general web search). See prior chapters for more details on writing socket-based servers. Also see the asyncore module described ahead for an asynchronous server class in the standard library based on the select system call instead of on threads or forks.
18.9.2. Standard Library Web Servers
As an even higher-level interface, Python also comes with the standard precoded HTTP web protocol server implementations we met in Chapter 16 and employed in Chapter 17. This support takes the form of three standard modules. BaseHTTPServer implements the server itself; this class is derived from the standard SocketServer.TCPServer class. SimpleHTTPServer and CGIHTTPServer implement standard handlers for incoming HTTP requests; the former handles simple web page file requests, while the latter also runs referenced CGI scripts on the server machine by forking processes.
Refer to Example 16-1 for a simple script that uses these modules to implement a web server in Python. Run that script on your server machine to start handling web page requests. This assumes that you have appropriate permissions to run such a script, of course; see the Python library manual for more details on precoded HTTP server and request handler modules.
Once you have your server running, you can access it in any web browser or by using either the Python httplib module, which implements the client side of the HTTP protocol, or the Python urllib module, which provides a file-like interface to data fetched from a named URL address (see the urllib examples in Chapters 14, 16, and 17, use a URL of the form "http://..." to access HTTP documents, and use "http://localhost/..." if the server is running on the same machine as the client).
18.9.3. Third-Party Solutions
Beyond Python's standard library, the public domain also offers many ways to build servers in Python, including the Twisted system described in Chapter 13 and mentioned in the next section. Open source systems such as Apache provide additional options.

Shock of the New
13 Mar 2007|Added Value
This is a poignant story with a twist.
A few weeks ago my adorable niece Nicole turned four. I attended her birthday party at the local children's gym, took snapshots and video and ate too much pizza. There was, of course, a mountain of presents, to which I contributed.
Being the doting technophile uncle, I decided to create a custom birthday card featuring lovely Nikki with her (and pretty much every child in the free world's) favorite entertainment act – The Wiggles. I downloaded an image of the Aussie gents and Photoshopped Nicole into their midst. I superimposed the phrase "Happy Birthday" and printed the thing on glossy stock with my venerable Epson.
I didn't occur to me to consider how Nikki might respond to my gift until the card was in her little hands. While my brother-in-law David muffled laughter and my sister cooed, Nicole merely stared with a blank expression at the colorful image. Murray, Anthony, and Greg all smiled; and there she was – on the lap of her favorite beaming Wiggle, Jeff.
She didn't seem excited; she didn't seem shocked. She merely stared. I'm not sure what I expected. She really had no cognitive framework for assimilating the image of herself in apparent physical proximity with a group of characters she had admired for years and never actually met. How could this have happened? She handed the picture to her father, without expression, and ran off to play with friends.
It's interesting to consider how prepared each of is to respond to, or even recognize the "new." There are tales of isolated tribesmen failing to recognize airplanes on the horizon due to a lack of cognitive schema – not even being aware of their presence.
When the next transformative experience or technology presents itself for public consumption how will you recognize it and respond? Will you engage and adapt or will you move on?

If you love cats, you'll love www.icanhascheezburger.com. The pictures are great and the captions hysterical. And, occasionally, they include other animals. The video of the hedgehog eating a carrot is a hoot. I'm too cold to go in my office and use the computer there - the one with my photos on it. So this will have to do for today!

Sad News
My friend and fellow writer, Sharyn Kuneman, died. I wish I had a picture to put with this post. I see her clearly in my mind's eye -- short, strawberry-blond hair and always smiling. Whenever I saw her name on the list of journalists for an upcoming press trip I knew it would be a fun trip. She was a great traveler; never let glitches get her down and she was the first to tell a joke on herself. I remember sitting with her at breakfast in Freeport, Maine, and talking about funny things that had happened to us on trips. One of her stories was about a time she only took one pair of shoes on a trip -- and got them wet. How to dry them fast? Hmmm, how about the microwave. It seemed like a good idea until the microwave melted the glue that held the soles and the uppers together -- and, all of a sudden, she had topless bottoms! I'm glad she shared that -- sounds like something I might try -- like the time I decided to warm my pajamas in the microwave and, not realizing there was a kleenex in the pocket, set them on fire. Sharyn will be fondly remembered and greatly missed.

Christmas Is Officially Over
That's not a theological statement, just a physical fact. Jack made me take the tree down today so the recyclers could pick it up and mulch it -- sort of tree reincarnation. I loved the tree. I loved getting up in the gray early mornings and turning on the lights to enjoy their colorful sparkle. Now all that's left of it is a pan of yucky water and piles of needles. Rats!

In case you're trying to log on to The Division 2 but can't, it's due to Ubisoft shutting down the servers for its usual round of The Division 2 maintenance. For today's server downtime, there's a very big reason for that as title update #4 will be rolled out during that time as well.
Here's the full schedule for today's The Division 2 maintenance schedule:
- When: Tuesday, June 18, 2019
- Start time: 9:30 a.m. CEST/3:30 a.m. ET/12:30 a.m. PT
- Duration: Approximately three hours
Once the actual The Division 2 update is out, we'll be sure to let our readers know. In the meantime, here's a rundown of some of the stuff Ubisoft Massive is rolling out today based on our post Ubisoft Massive's latest State of the Game:
PTS / Update 4
Signature Weapon Balancing
It was reported by the community, that the Signature Weapons do less damage on PTS. That is not intended. The goal is to buff the Signature Weapons to make them viable in the game.
Gear Mod Change
- Generic Gear Mods could be stacked so that one or two stats are too strong. That has been addressed so that you can't equip Generic Gear Mods on high-end gear anymore. They are intended for the campaign and not for the endgame.
- There were six Gear Mod Types before and that has been reduced to 3: Damage, Utility, Defensive. There are no longer System and Protocol requirements on the mod-slots. Now you just fit damage mod to damage mod-slots. That makes it easier to equip the mods.
- That means you can use the Generic Gear Mods in the campaign and replace them at a fast frequency. Once you hit endgame it is easier to equip the mods that you get, because there are fewer requirements.
Visual Update for Named Items
- They wanted to add more lore to the game at launch and that is why they added the named weapons.
- The named weapons have a designated name and lore to them, but they follow the same stat-rules of normal weapons.
- To make them more special – they got a visual upgrade so that they are more interesting.
New Exotic Holster
- The first exotic gear item will be added to the game with Update 4: "Dodge City Gunslinger's Exotic Holster"
- You have to buy a blueprint from the vendor and collect the crafting materials in a small quest.
Improvement to Weekly Invasion Rewards
- If you are at GS 500, you get GS 500 items from them as rewards.
- Same applies to Hard and Challenging Named Enemies
Aux Battery Mods
The icon of the mod will now match the Skill
Blueprints Shared across characters
Not scheduled for Update 4 – but it is on their radar.
Again, this is not the complete patch notes. Once we have 'em, we'll let our readers know.

This is the most radical street in Manchester history, in my opinion.
In April 2017, I took a field trip around Ancoats and Miles Platting, north Manchester, to investigate some of the sites of protest and popular politics that I researched for my previous book, Protest & the Politics of Space and Place, 1789-1848.
My final destination was Osborne Street, formerly known as Cropper Street, a place that I wrote about as a 'locale' in my book, and which I'm still obsessed with.
This blog post is a quick recap of what I've already found out. I'll update with new posts soon with new research.
The site
Situated off Oldham Road on the boundary with Miles Platting, Cropper Street was one of a couple of strings of terraces erected on a building ground (from the maps sometime around 1812) still surrounded by fields and a coal pit, and thus somewhat isolated from the centre.
The streets feel isolated because they're still set apart from the other terraces in the rest of north Manchester and Miles Platting, and they border the scrubby St George's Fields, which look out onto St Patrick's RC church and views of the ever-increasing towers of central Manchester.
From an ad in the paper selling two houses in 1843, it looks like the leases began in January 1817, and were described as 'very substantially built, have large house place and kitchen, two large bedrooms and are let at three shillings a week each'.[2]
< [3]Manchester Courier, 9 August 1845.
Then followed also a court case between the Corporation and the main landowner, Edmund Buckley, 'a gentleman of considerable property', who refused to pave and sweep the street, arguing that it was the Corporation's job. Manchester Times 21 August 1846.
From the 1838 land tax records (see below), he owned at least 10 properties on the street (though this may have increased by 1846 – I need to check).
The renowned urban historian H. J. Dyos wrote about the impact of railways on reinforcing poverty over time in Victorian London, especially in sites that were cut off by 'tourniquets' of lines:
The most general explanation for slum tendencies in particular places is that, without the kind of general control on the spatial development of the city that might have been given, say, by a rectilinear grid, there were bound to be innumerable dead ends and backwaters in the street plan…
A more careful reading of Booth's maps would show how some additions to the street plan – a dock, say, or a canal, a railway line or a new street – frequently reinforced these tendencies….
They all acted like tourniquets applied too long, and below them a gangrene almost invariably set in. The actual age of houses seldom had much to do with it and it was sometimes possible to run through the complete declension from meadow to slum in a single generation, or even less.[5]
First attempt at a 3D rendering. I will add the occupiers once I work out the street numbers properly:
Link to a 1915 photograph from Manchester Images Collection: http://images.manchester.gov.uk/web/objects/common/webmedia.php?irn=26973&reftable=ecatalogue&refirn=59278
I will add the valuation key asap (when I find it – the National Archives indexes IR 58 for IR 133 are hard to navigate!)
The 1818 ratebook listed 83 houses on the street, with a population of around 600.[1] There is also a Back Cropper Street. Most households had only one family, with perhaps a couple of lodgers: that is, these were not overcrowded slums quite yet.
1838 Land Tax records: Manchester Archives, M9/50/45, District 1, Oldham Road – Cropper Street and Back Cropper Street
1841 census entries, HO 107/574/8
Occupational breakdown of heads of households:
46% of the heads of households of Cropper Street, Back Cropper Street and adjoining Pump Street, were cotton weavers. 17 out of the 56 households on Cropper Street had Irish heads of household.
By the 1841 census, over-crowding, particularly of Irish, is evident.
This one house somewhere in the middle (annoyingly the 1841 census didn't number the houses, but it was probably hard to do so with all the courts and cellars), had a 75-year old Irish cotton weaver, George Jordan, as head of household, two male relations Christopher (c.45) and Peter (c.15) (son and grandson?) and then 13 other people, including some more Jordans, and one other family, in the same house.
The site was presumably flattened during the post-war slum clearance programme, and these new houses built by the council. I need to find out more about this.
Christ Temple International Church is now occupant of the old estate pub, the Lorimers Arms, at 101 Osborne Street
Of course I found a Lucy's electrical box on New Allen Street, my main touchstone for wherever I go.
I will be writing why this was the most radical street in Manchester in the next installment…

Mankind faces an ecological challenge. We have too much garbage. One of my lost balls holds the solution to the problem.
First, the problem.
Garbage. Lots of garbage. Landfills are full to overflowing and despite both conservation and recycling efforts, we produce ever more garbage.
Second, my solution.
Garbage needs to go where the socks that get lost in our dryer go– someplace where they are never found. Maybe it's a parallel universe or another dimension. Who cares? Those socks are gone forever. At least, they're gone from my universe or dimension.
They're just socks, right? Garbage is not socks. Garbage is solid. That problem is easily solved, too. So far, we've only tested a dryer's ability to make objects disappear because all we've given the dryer is clothing. I have proof that solid materials placed into a dryer can disappear, too.
My wife bought a couple of rubber balls designed to help 'fluff' clothing in a dryer as it spins. The idea is that the little rubber balls bounce around and the extra weight causes clothing to keep moving and not get bunched up. So far, I can't tell whether those little rubber balls work or not. Whatever those balls do, they don't stop socks from disappearing.
Recently, we lost one of the bouncing rubber balls in the dryer. Or, wherever it is that things put into a dryer go when they disappear. One day there were two bouncing balls in the dryer, the next day there was only one. That's all the proof we need that dryers can make solid objects disappear.
The technology of a dryer can't be that difficult to figure out. It heats. It spins. Maybe there's a combination of heat and spin which causes objects to disappear. Maybe it has something to do with a combination of spinning and a universal law which requires that whatever is placed in a dryer in pairs (as in socks), will be reduced by one. A pair of socks becomes one sock. A pair of rubber balls becomes one ball. Therefore, two big bags of garbage would become only a single bag.
A pair of pants is obviously exempt from the effects of the universal law.

Business Cards from Famous Horror Movies for Savvy Networkers
You may not want to gather these business cards from famous horror movies—at the very least, don't set up any business meetings. We Are Dorothy has put together a collection of 31 business cards of favourite horror movie villains. You'll find range of services, such as those of Annie Wilkes, a nurse; Dr. Hannibal Lecter, a psychiatrist; Arthur Kipps, a lawyer; Norman Bates, a taxidermist; Pamela Voorhees, a chef; Frederick Krueger, a janitor; Drayton Sawyer, a furniture maker; Peter or Paul, a golf coach; and even a children's entertainer—Pennywise—and a priest—Father Damien Karras.
There's also, of course, the most famous business card in cinematic history: Patrick Bateman's (sans raised print, and subtle off-white colouring.)
Each card comes with a unique design providing all the pertinent information for each of the characters. The first set of cards are limited to 100 and are presented in an aluminium film reel gift case. The cards are Litho printed, letterpressed, and foil block.
The project is the brainchild of four former advertisers who started their own company in 2010. We Are Dorothy creates conceptual prints, products, and artwork. The UK-based company sells and exhibits internationally.

Don't let those overly ripe bananas go to waste. You can whip up these healthy and deliciously moist banana chocolate chip muffins in just 25 minutes. These healthy banana chocolate chip muffins are made gluten-free and refined sugar-free and are a perfect breakfast or snack for busy mornings on-the-go.
I love banana bread. I sincerely and deeply love banana bread. If you follow my blog regularly you know that banana bread recipes are my go to and I post them quite often. Today I was craving banana bread but I'm starting to think that maybe I'm running out of ways to change up the flavors–maybe! So instead of a flavor change, I changed the form from loaf to cupcake. Best idea I've ever had 🙂
How cute is this chrome rack in the picture above? I get DMs on my instagram on the daily about where I got it. I just purchased it from Amazon for less than 10 bucks. That's where I get most of my props. I added the link here so you can have one too!
If you are asking yourself how I made these muffins refined sugar-free but still used chocolate chips, the answer is Lily's brand chocolate. They make dark chocolate chips that are 100% sugar-free and sweetened with stevia and the best part is that they actually taste no different than full-sugar semi sweet chocolate chips.
Healthy Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins (Gluten-Free & Refined Sugar- Free)
Healthy high protein banana chocolate chip muffins made gluten free and refined sugar free.
- 3 bananas, ripe
- 3 eggs, large
- 1/2 c unsweetened almond milk
- 1/4 c coconut oil, melted
- 1 1/4 c Gluten-Free Baking Flour
- 1/4 c Granulated Zero Calorie Sweetener
- 64g vanilla protein powder PEScience 30% off code PBCHOCO
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- pinch sea salt
- 1/2 c sugar-free chocolate chips
- Preheat oven to 350 F and prepare 12 muffin molds with non-stick spray or cupcake liners.
- In a mixer, beat the bananas and eggs for 1 minute. Add in the melted coconut oil, vanilla and milk and continue mixing until incorporated. Add in the remaining dry ingredients (except chocolate chips) and stir until no dry spots remain. Fold in half of the chocolate chips.

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil (Aug. 5, 2016) – The U.S. Olympic Women's Indoor Volleyball Team is in familiar territory on the eve of opening the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil. The Americans open play against their NORCECA zone rival Puerto Rico on Saturday at 4:05 p.m. ET.
Team USA entered the 2012 Olympic Games with the world's number-one ranking, which is no different four years later in 2016. However, the Americans finished with their second straight Olympic Games silver medal after losing to Brazil in the title match in London.

In 2016, the U.S. wants to be different than years past. They want to finish on the top step of the Olympic podium for the first time in 52 years since volleyball was put on the Olympic schedule. The Americans have three silver medals (1984, 2008 and 2012) and one bronze medal (1992) at the Olympics – but no gold. In fact, Team USA has garnered only one gold medal in any of the three major volleyball tournaments (Olympics, FIVB World Championship and FIVB World Cup), and that was only two years ago when the Americans broke through and earned the 2014 FIVB World Championship title in Italy.
Team USA opens Pool B with Puerto Rico, ranked 17th in the world, before playing Netherlands on Aug. 8, Serbia on Aug. 10 and Italy on Aug. 12 all at 2 p.m. ET. The Americans conclude the group phase on Aug. 14 against No. 3 China at 4:05 p.m. ET.
"Once the Olympic groups were announced, we saw that we had a very strong group, and I think that is the best possible thing to happen for each of us in this group," U.S. Olympic Women's Volleyball Team Head Coach Karch Kiraly said. "We will get to face a lot of fierce battles and that is what we have been preparing for the last four years. We are extremely excited to be here."

Team USA brings a roster that may not look to have the experience it has had in the past, but they have been battled tested throughout the quad. With four Olympic veterans and eight newcomers, Kiraly nice the composition of the team.
"We have a nice blend of experience in people like our captain Christa, who is competing in her second Olympics, along with Foluke Akinradewo, Jordan Larson and Courtney Thompson," Kiraly said. "We have eight players who have not competed in the Olympics previously. However, those eight players since 2013 have had many chances to battle and compete and at the world level such as World Grand Prix, World Championship and World Cup. We have a group that might not look that experienced on paper, but they have logged lots of matches. We have counted them up, and we have probably played over 150 times with a USA uniform these last four years. Nobody has played all of those matches, but all the players here have played the bulk of those matches. That has been great preparation for us."
On the other hand, Puerto Rico has already made history by just being in Rio and making its first Olympic Games appearance. The squad qualified for the Olympics after winning the FIVB World Olympic Qualification Tournament in May, an event they hosted. And now the Puerto Ricans understand it will be a huge task taking the next step on the Olympic court for the first time.
"For Puerto Rico, it is the first time to qualify for the Olympic Games," Puerto Rico Head Coach Juan Carlos Nunez said. "Now for the pool, every match will be strong games."
Although this is the first Olympic meeting between the two teams, they are very familiar with each other over the years. Since 1983, the team battled 39 times with the U.S. winning 36 times and all three losses were in events where Team USA did not send its top squad. The Americans defeated Puerto Rico in four sets during the 2016 NORCECA Women's Olympic Qualification Tournament, the event in which the U.S. qualified for the Olympics. One of Puerto Rico's three victories over the U.S. came less than a month ago, a four-set win during the Pan American Cup semifinals in which the American roster was primarily collegiate athletes or those who just graduated within the last two years.
The U.S. enters the Olympic Games having won the silver medal at the 2016 FIVB World Grand Prix in Thailand on July 10. The Americans faced Brazil in the finals and dropped a heart-breaking five set match. Puerto Rico ended up finishing with the silver medal at the Pan American Cup.
The top four teams in each six-team pool advance to the knockout stage where the winner of each six-team pool gets to face the crossover pool's fourth seed. The second- and third-place teams will have their quarterfinal opponents drawn by lot. The semifinals take place on Aug. 18 followed by the medal matches on Aug. 20.
By the Numbers:
- 1 – USA Head Coach Karch Kiraly, already the first person to win gold as a player in indoor and beach volleyball, is attempting to become the first person to win gold as a player and lead a team to gold as a head coach (note: Jenny Lang Ping, head coach of China's women's team, is also attempting the feat)
- 4 – USA has four Olympic veterans (Foluke Akinradewo, Christa Dietzen Jordan Larson, Courtney Thompson)
- 8 - USA has eight newcomers on the 2016 Olympic Games roster (Rachael Adams, Kayla Banwarth, Alisha Glass, Kim Hill, Carli Lloyd, Karsta Lowe, Kelly Murphy, Kelsey Robinson)
- 12 - USA has won 12 of its last 14 Olympic Games matches – both losses to Brazil in gold-medal matches in 2008 and 2012
- 12 – USA has qualified for the Olympics for the 12th time and will be competing in the Games for the 11th time (note: Team USA qualified for 1980 Olympics, but boycott prevented them from competing)

SAM Process Kit – Introduction:
It's been a while since I put pen to paper in respect of the process kit, so I thought it would be worthwhile jotting down a few notes to let you know what's changed, and what changes are coming!
SAM Process Kit
Since going on sale, the praise for the process kit has been glowing – which is hugely rewarding and very humbling at the same time. The number of light bulb moments that it has inspired in companies around the world has resulted in better run IT estates, and companies not relying merely on the installation of a SAM suite to "do SAM".
And it's the seemingly simple steps that can offer real rewards: Implementing a software recycling process for a client in the UK with 5,000 seats highlighted cost-avoidance figures of circa £200,000 – just by recycling two desktop titles! Imagine the cost-avoidance that could be realised if they took on all the titles for a vendor, or even the whole IT estate?!
I use the process kit for all my consultative engagements, and the nicest thing I see from using the kit is how non-IT staff relate to the process flows and the "why" behind the "what" of what we are seeking to achieve becomes logical and obvious for all to see. The politics involved in running IT fades away once we start to deconstruct ambitions to primary and secondary objectives and package them in bite-sized process chunks.
The suggestion by Kylie Fowler of ITAM Intelligence to create a Hardware Asset Management Process Kit set us on the path of a wonderful collaboration, and spawned ideas for further process kits. Right now, we are overhauling the SAM kit to be in line with ISO 19770-1: 2017, which will be followed up with a process kit dedicated to the Cloud, as well as a publication focussed on Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and their value in achieving quality ITAM. Alignment of the process kit to Snow Licence Manager and another publication on the specifics of the processes around managing Microsoft are in the pipeline.
SAM Process Kit – Bonus Material!!
Although the text currently talks of 35 HAM & SAM processes on offer, as a bonus (and part of the rolling development/ maturity of the process kit) we have two additional SAM based processes to help get you on your way: Invitation To Tender Process and Contract Termination Process – as my salesman-father used to say "never accept the first offer", and so having a means by which to objectively compare prices for software contracts that can spiral into 8 figures is a prudent thing to do. At the opposite end of the spectrum, having a tactical and strategic approach to the termination of software contracts is another demonstration of prudence – as this often acts as a trigger to a vendor audit.
The kit provides jpegs and MS Visio maps which you can customise, and using the ARIS approach to modelling forces you to consider the data, technology and personnel required for all function steps. Where a lot of practices similar to ours fall down, is when they fail to consider how the processes interact with each other. We have managed to demonstrate how the SAM processes can fit together in our Template SAM Eco-System.
Data passes from one process to the next, so we can see how the strategic influences the operational, and how a cycle of continuous improvement will drive your company up the SAM/ ITAM Maturity curve.
SAM Process Kit – Conclusion
You've paid for a SAM Suite; you're paying for your staff/ contractors to use your technology; it's time to pay for the processes that brings these two vital resources together. You could attempt to create your own processes, but that will be a saga of trial and error. Our Process Kit will save you money and save you time – and make your SAM/ITAM function zing!

Vision problems are among the most common problems associated with acquired brain injuries. Causes of brain injury can include trauma, auto accidents, suffocation, drug reaction and strokes. Initially symptoms may be subtle but often become more of a concern with time. Specific problems can include poor memory, disorientation, loss of reading skills or poor word recall. Click for a recent article from England.
Head Injury and Stroke Vision Rehabilitation(Neuro-Optometric Rehabilitation)
Post Trauma Vision RehabilitationDr. Mayer treats visual problems of people with strokes, head injuries and other major disorders. Treatment and results include knowing where straight ahead is, knowing where things really are located, correction of double vision and the ability to have a person's eyes land on the right spot when reading or looking around the environment. This contributes to balancing problems. If you or a loved one has had a stroke or head injury, you need this type of evaluation and treatment to improve recovery and perhaps even drive again.
Common symptoms include:
- Double vision
- Headaches
- Blurry vision
- Dizziness or nausea
- Attention or concentration difficulties
- Staring behavior (low blink rate)
- Spatial disorientation
- Lose place when reading
- Can't find beginning of next line when reading
- Comprehension problems when reading
- Visual memory problems
- Pulling away from objects when they are brought close
People who have sustained head injuries, strokes or other neurological impairments often find that their vision has been affected as a result. Dr. Mayer has received special training in neuro-optometric rehabilitation and treatment. The following information may be a first step in determining if visual difficulties are interfering with the rehabilitation progress.
Insults or injuries to the cortex produced by a traumatic brain injury cause stress in the central and autonomic nervous systems. The effect on vision seems to be an interference with the visual processes. As a result, a head injured person may experience double vision, binocular dysfunction or concentration difficulties.
In the past, these symptoms were diagnosed as individual eye problems or muscle imbalances. However, the visual system is really a relationship of sensory-motor functions which are controlled and organized in the brain. The eye alignment imbalances and other reported difficulties that result from a head injury often occur because of dysfunction of the ambient visual process affecting sensory-motor spatial disorganization. This causes an eye to turn outward or a strong tendency for both eyes to diverge. The resulting binocular problems are characteristic of what is known as the Post Trauma Vision Syndrome.
Visual Midline Shift Syndrome
After a neurological impairment such as a stroke or TBI, disorders of vision can also occur which cause shifts in concept of a person's midline. This can cause the person to shift their body laterally or in other ways which affect balance, posture and gait. This shift in visual midline has been termed the Visual Midline Shift Syndrome.
Rehabilitation: Due to the major impact of the visual system on cognitive and motor function, the visual rehabilitative needs of a person with a head injury, stroke, or a neurological impairment must be addressed as early as possible. Neuro-optometric rehabilitation is an individualized treatment regimen for patients with visual deficits as a result of such injuries. The treatment plan improves specific acquired vision dysfunctions determined by standardized diagnostic criteria. Treatment regimens encompass medically necessary non-compensatory lenses and prisms with and without occlusion and other appropriate rehabilitation strategies.
Behavioral observations during therapy sessions or medical examinations, in-depth interviews and screenings provide information about potential visual and neuro-motor dysfunctions.
- Dizziness or nausea
- Spatial disorientation
- Consistently stay to one side of hallway or room
- Bump into objects when walking
- Poor balance or posture. For example: leaning back on heels, forward, or to one side when walking, standing or seated in a wheelchair)
Yoked Prism Glasses
Yoked prism glasses are utilized therapeutically to alter the visual midline concept of a person who has suffered a neuro-motor imbalance as a result of a cerebral vascular accident, traumatic brain injury, or who has had a physical disability from multiple sclerosis or cerebral palsy to name several causes. Persons who have a hemiparesis or hemiplegia will have a shift in their concept of their visual midline usually away from their effected side. These shifts in midline can also occur anteriorally or posteriorally.
When the visual midline shifts, it causes the person to unconsciously think that their body center is shifted in the direction of their midline. In turn, the person will lean toward the midline shift and essentially reinforce their own hemiparesis or hemiplegia. The visual midline shift has been documented in literature and neuro-motor problems affecting posture and balance have also been written extensively about in journals of rehabilitation regarding physical and occupational therapy.
Through the use of yoked prism glasses, the visual midline can be shifted to increase the person's ability to transfer weight over to the affected side. Yoked prism lenses have been used effectively through neuro-optometric rehabilitation in hospitals and rehabilitation programs throughout the United States.
When a person has a visual midline shift, physical therapy will frequently plateau and reach a limit if the visual midline is not effected through the use of medically necessary yoked prism lenses. These yoked prism lenses are therapeutic and are not compensatory in nature. The purpose of these special prisms are to shift the visual midline thereby enhancing the effect of the physical and occupation therapy. It has been determined that the potential for physical and occupation therapy can be increased and reached more quickly when incorporated with the use of yoked prisms.

Pieter Jansen, programme officer at Both ENDS, interviewed Sukanta Sen from the Bangladesh Resource Center for Indigenous Knowledge (BARCIK). BARCIK is an NGO that works in the field of environment, biodiversity conservation and development. They have been promoting the significance of local and indigenous knowledge in development initiatives as well as the empowerment process of local and indigenous communities.
It's October, time for the annual meeting of the World Bank in Washington DC in which the annual results and future plans will be presented to the outside world. It also gives NGOs from all over the world an oppotunity to talk with World Bank's administrators and relevant staff on future policies. Pieter Jansen of Both ENDS travelled to Washington together with three representatives of local organisations in the South: Yu Chen of Green Watershed from China, Mayra Tenjo of ILSA from Colombia and Ram Wangkheirakpam of NEPA from India. Their main purpose is to highlight the importance of social- and environmental requirements that the investments of the World Bank should meet, the so-called 'safeguards'.
