Click here for bonspiel graphical draw
Click here for bonspiel general info
The annual FG Open was held from February 21-23 and was yet again a huge success! Many thanks to all the league members and guests who continue to support the bonspiel with a full 32 team draw and waiting list. So awesome to notice that over the years folks are getting to know one another on and off the ice at the bonspiel from all the different leagues as well as guests from outside of the club. It is truly wonderful to see everyone having fun on the ice, enjoying the amazing Storm Cafe food and socializing in our club room. It truly feels like a family and what the club is supposed to be all about.
Special thanks to Lori Harrow and Case Komada. Lori (Past President and former Executive member), who not only oversees our bar services, but recruits and organizes the teams for our bonspiel. Again, a full 32 teams with a waiting list. Case (Past President and former Executive member), a priceless volunteer, for organizing, maintaining and updating the draws and payouts. Thank you is simply not enough. Without the two of you, there would be no bonspiel. To Dwayne Treichel, Ed Shachtay and President Darren Needham for running the blind calcutta. Thank you Mitch Rouire (club member himself) and Storm Cafe staff for your great food and service! The Big Crush band performed on Saturday evening and a huge thank you to them for providing great entertainment which kept our club room hopping.
The on ice fun and comradery, food, bar service and entertainment was awesome yet again. We are already looking forward to next year!

TIM CAHILL will have returned to Bellefield with a spring in his step and rightly so after Australia's fantastic achievement in qualifying for the World Cup.
Now all we are just waiting for is for him to get his first Premier-ship goal of the season and then he really will be up and running.
Some people have suggested that he had a little bit of a disappointing start to the campaign and that tiredness has played a part.
I don't believe that for a minute. As long as you are not killing players in training, there is nothing more they like doing than playing matches, no matter where they have to travel.
Cahill strikes me as being no different. The only thing missing from his game since the start of the year has been goals and that is why people have questioned his form.
But when you have set standards as high as he did last year, then it is sometimes difficult to live up to them no matter how hard you try.
He will have experienced a tremendous high this week in Sydney, though, and there is no doubt Cahill will be geared up for his return to domestic action.
Hopefully Everton will reap the benefits from that and it is only a matter of time before he gets back to doing what he does best - and that is scoring crucial goals.
Blues can't go wrong with right attitude>
A LOT of people will think that Steve Watson and Kevin Campbell will have a point to prove when they face Everton but why should they?
They both enjoyed lengthy careers at Goodison Park and made significant contributions, so it's not as if David Moyes never gave either of them a fair crack of the whip.
What they will be out to do is get one over their old mates and they will be geared up for the game at The Hawthorns - Everton's players will need a similar attitude.
Of course everyone around Bellefield will be feeling better after the last three Premiership results but there is no chance of any complacency setting in. Far from it.
You only have to look at the league table to see that a West Brom win tomorrow will change things completely around and will be good enough for them to leapfrog the Blues.
But Everton have every right to travel there full of confidence and they shouldn't go wrong if they continue to show the same kind of attitude that has been evident in the last month.
Keane just like Ball >>>>
Keane just like Ball>
IF the headlines over the past couple of days are right, Manchester United will be doing the right thing by giving Roy Keane a testimonial to end his career at the club.
He has been a tremendous servant to the club, a tremendous leader and one of the best captains I have ever seen.
The only person who I played alongside that shared similarities to him was Alan Ball, who if things were going wrong wouldn't think twice about running 20 yards to kick someone in the air.
He would get himself sent-off but he'd make his point and show to everyone that he cared. He was also a wonderful player and that is something that also applies to Keane.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Jacksonville City Council will vote next week on whether to move forward with giving additional money to Friends of Hemming Park, the organization that manages the Downtown park.
The finance committee voted this week to move forward with paying the group $58,000 to continue operating for the next two months.
If City Council votes to approve the money on Tuesday, an additional $74,000 would be set aside to pay back Southwest Airlines for a grant that was given to the group for a capital project, but was instead used for operational costs.
That money would be in addition to the $250,000 Mayor Lenny Curry has included for the group in his proposed city budget for 2016-17.
City Councilman John Crescimbeni is not in support of the finance committee's vote to continue funding Friends of Hemming Park.
"If you read the council auditor's report, which includes a check register of all their disbursement since they took over in October 2014, there's a whole litany of expenses that never should have been made," Crescimbeni said. "I think it's time to move on and find another organization that can do what we thought this group was going to do."
Crescimbeni said he's not happy with what he sees in the Downtown park, and that Friends of Hemming Park has had plenty of time to make changes.
"What's out there today is not what I was envisioning, and not what was being sold to me by these people when they were trying to get this business from the city back in the summer of 2014," Crescimbeni said.
But City Councilman Bill Gulliford isn't on the same page.
"We've gotten the good vibes about the programming. That has not been the problem," Gulliford said. "I think the problem relates to defining who provides what by way of financing, and that's where we're going to head. There's still a committee that's going to address that, and it's going to be ongoing."
He said that if approved, the money will have specific controls attached to it, and he thinks interim leader Bill Prescott will only bring positive changes.
"He's doing that at no charge, not taking a salary," Gulliford said. "I think he's a very true, smart, savvy guy who is committed, and that's a big move, and I feel much more comfortable now."
Prescott said he's ready to meet the needs of businesses, visitors and city leaders, and described some of the improvements he's already envisioning.
"I would love to see this park be all grass instead of the pavers that it is," Prescott said. "It's a hard scape, but I think there's a pallet here that we can work with in terms of whether we look at this area by Sweet Pete's and say, 'You know what, that's a natural place for a playground.'"
People on both sides of the issue said the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office needs to be more involved with the upkeep and improvement of Hemming Park, saying that there needs to be a more consistent officer presence.

Solid Edge is a portfolio of affordable, easy-to-use software tools that address all aspects of the product development process. Solid Edge combines the speed and simplicity of direct modeling with the flexibility and control of parametric design - made possible with synchronous technology.
Siemens Solid Edge 2020 Build 220.00.00.104 (x64) | 8.66 Gb
Additional Information
Support for High-resolution Monitors
Solid Edge 2020 has improved support for bitmaps, controls, and other graphic elements displayed on high-resolution monitors (monitors with resolution greater than 3500 pixels).
When you use a monitor with DPI greater than 170 pixels, we recommend you adjust settings in two locations:
Set the primary DPI scaling resolution for the entire desktop using the Microsoft Windows Control Panel.
Adjust the relative sizing of Solid Edge design tools on the Helpers tab in the Solid Edge Options dialog box.
Temp File Space
Solid Edge uses temporary file space to save files and to store memory mapped display files. Using temporary file space increases system performance and is more robust should you encounter network problems.
You should ensure that you have twice as much free temporary file space as the size of the largest file being saved. The file size includes the size of the assembly, the size of the subassemblies that are being used, and the size of the part files.
Running Solid Edge creates temporary memory mapped files that are used to support the display system. When you open assembly and part files, memory mapped files are created in the temp directory on the hard drive only while the files are displayed. The memory mapped files are deleted after exiting the Solid Edge file.
Running Solid Edge creates a file named DCCACHE.tmp in the user temp folder. This file is a cache of the file icons displayed on the dialogs for browsing, opening, and saving files.
If Solid Edge files are not properly associated with the product, try deleting this file and restarting the product.
It is good practice to periodically delete files in temporary folders so your system is not unnecessarily using disk space.
Page File Size
For optimum Solid Edge performance, we recommend you set a custom page file size. The Initial size and the Maximum size should be the same. They should both be set to double the RAM size.
Solid Edge Maintenance Packs
We release Maintenance Packs for CRITICAL items only. Solid Edge 2020 maintenance packs will be released through December 31, 2020.
What's New in Solid Edge 2020
As the Solid Edge portfolio continues to expand, this release's version is updated to include many new features, all of which continue the focus on implementing state-of-the-art technology with outstanding usability.
For a complete list of Solid Edge 2020 enhancements, start Solid Edge and launch Solid Edge Help and review What's New in Solid Edge 2020. You can also review the Solid Edge 2020 Release Notes available on the Support Web Page:About Siemens PLM Software. Siemens PLM Software is a world-leading provider of product lifecycle management and manufacturing operations management software. We help thousands of companies realize innovation by optimizing their processes, from planning and development through manufacturing, production and support.โค้ด:http://support.industrysoftware.automation.siemens.com/docs/se/
Operating system requirements and information
Solid Edge 2020 has been certified to run on the following:
Windows 10 Enterprise or Professional (64-bit only) version 1709 or later
Internet Explorer 11
Internet Explorer is not required to be the default browser.
Microsoft Office Professional 2016, or Microsoft Office 365 Business.
Windows Home and Windows RT are not supported.
We recommend that you not run Solid Edge on Server operating systems.
Solid Edge stops certifying new releases against an operating system shortly after Microsoft drops mainstream support for it. Microsoft dropped mainstream support for Windows 7 in January 2015. Microsoft dropped mainstream support for Windows 8.1 in January 2018. Due to limited support from Microsoft and graphics card vendors for older operating systems, installation of Solid Edge on Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 is not recommended. Solid Edge will install and run on these operating systems, but issues determined to be caused by an incompatibility between Solid Edge and an end of life operating system may not be fixed. Due to the potential for critical issues on these older operating systems, Solid Edge 2020 could be the last Solid Edge release that installs on Windows 7 or Windows 8.1.
Recommended system configuration
Windows 10 Enterprise or Professional (64-bit only) version 1709 or later
16 GB RAM or more
True Color (32-bit) or 16 million colors (24-bit)
Screen Resolution: 1920 x 1080
Solid Edge 2020 uses SPLM License Server v10.0.0 for licensing products
Therefore, you need to install a universal SolidSQUAD License Servers (if it wasn't installed before) or upgrade it to the SolidSQUAD'License'Servers'SiemensPLM folder (if it was installed for some Siemens products from TeAM releases SolidSQUAD-SS until July 24, 2019)
The updated vendor and license from this release are compatible with all previous siemens releases from TeAM SolidSQUAD-SS. So, after the solidSQUAD'License'Servers'SiemensPLM update from this release, previously installed Siemens products from TeAM SolidSQUAD-SS releases will continue to operate without any restrictions

I need your opinions. Which Symbol would be best used to separate my Products Post Title. My Titles are the Products PART # followed by the Year. Since each Part # will fit many years I have to Add the same Part # for each year. And to avoid Duplicate Post Titles I will be adding the year at end of Part #. Which symbol should I use to separate the Part # for the year in my TITLE. | or - or ( ) EXAMPLE TCCP0002 | 2013 TCCP0002 - 2012 TCCP0002 (2011)
I would like to know if SEO or Google does NOT like any of the 3 Options.
I need more feedback on this if anyone has a Opinion
Are you expecting that the people are going to search for the part number and year on the search engines? Is the part number something generic or just your own?
Kind regards,
Wide range of PremiumPress and WordPress Plugins and add-ons
PremiumPress customisation services and Website Design
Selection of PremiumPress Child Themes
Richard customers most likely will only search for the part#
but i cannot think of another way to do this without creating duplicate POST TITLES.
Do you have any other ideas.
Richard do you have any better ideas.
I will have the exact same Product listed 10-12 times only difference is the Year that Product will fit.
I wouldn't use the special character
– If the only thing differentiating one product from another is the year-model … then that's all you can/should use in my opinion.
– Use the dash "-" as it is the natural way WP labels post titles (and G loves WP)
– Don't stress about the "-" for SEO purposes. It is NOT going to make your listing rank-or-not. ie. Having all those "same-products" categorised in a definitive hierarchical silo/category is MUCH more important. And then write a 500-600 word article on each year-model … THAT will get G's attention and give the bot relevant data to "understand" your individual products/pages.
– I agree with Ian … won't use the special character (or the brackets)
What is WP Labels.
I have to use 1 of the symbols or come up with better idea.
the Part #'s end with #'s and just using a space before starting the year and model looks bad and confusing.
I think I will go with the DASH.
If anyone believes this is bad idea please let me know quickly. I am about to upload 4,000 parts.
Keep in mind …
– WordPress (WP) is going to replace the "space" with a dash anyway (hence why I say it is the natural way WP labels post titles)
– If you already have a dash … WP will remove the space before and after (the way you are planning)
so you are saying it will look like this.
WP Formate TSSU0002-2013-CX50-King
So it is ok for me to use the –
It is what I would use if was in your shoes.
PS. to "see" what it will look like why don't you create a dummy-page and name the Page Title … TSSU0002 – 2013 CX50 KING … post it, and see how WP "reformats" the url depending on your permalink settings. You can then delete the page/post if you are happy and do you mass upload … 🙂

Shooting survivor credits Willard policeman with saving his life
On the evening of June 22, Jason Long and his fiancé Amanda Bowser, were walking down the Frisco Trail in Willard when a car approached them.
"I made (Amanda) get behind me because it didn't seem right to me that the car should be on that trail," he said. "When I saw this man come up toward me, I saw this gun and I pushed Amanda down into the ditch. That's when the guy swung his gun out the window and shot me."
Officer Shawn Garner was the first person to arrive on the scene. Long said it was Garner who saved his life.
"Shawn showed up and kept me from bleeding out," he said.
Garner said he wasn't sure what to expect when he arrived on scene.
"I only knew there was possibly a suspect and one victim," Garner said. "Once I got there, I realized that the suspect was (not there). I had located Jason; he was leaning up against a telephone pole on Highway 94 right by the trailer park. I immediately got out, started assisting aid with him. I noticed he had two gunshot wounds, so I applied bandages to those and held pressure while another officer secured the area."
Garner was recognized for his actions at the Willard 70th Birthday Celebration on Saturday, Aug. 24 by Chief of Police Tom McClain.
"I don't know if you guys know this or not," McClain said to the audience that evening, "but a couple of months ago, a man and his partner were enjoying the Frisco Trail, like many of you do, when on that fateful night, he was shot. He stands here with us tonight, and he wanted to take this opportunity to face-to-face thank the young police officer who was there to administer immediate aid. According to Jason Long, Officer Garner saved his life that night."
While Long views Garner as a hero, Garner said he was just doing his job that day.
"When we have incidents like that … our job is to secure the area and to render aid to them," he said. "So, I did what any other officer would have done; I plugged his wounds and held pressure and waited for medical to arrive and for more people to be able to start our investigation. To me, I just did my job; to him, I saved his life and I'm glad that he's okay and that he's still alive."
Long said he had to go through three surgeries and was in the emergency room for four days. Now almost fully recovered, he said he's looking forward to returning to work.
The alleged shooter is Kwaim Allen Stenson, of Springfield. He remains in the custody of the Greene County Jail and faces charges of first-degree assault, armed criminal action and unlawful use of a weapon.

You need into solar energy for homes. You've heard about do-it-yourself kits therefore looks inviting and intimidating simultaneously. But it surely does not have to seem. Below, you'll find out concerning the 3 types of common solar powered energy and how you can increase your use gradually.
Use cells that haven't been tabbed. A great deal more build really solar panels you'll save thousands of dollars. To even further increase your savings use solar cells that haven't been tabbed. May refine tin the ribbons and tab the cells yourself. As well as effort is well worth the savings, and it's simple when may a decent guide that shows you.
If you've got an above-ground swimming pool, possess additional options when it comes down to Solar Pool Heaters. You might choose an excessive roof-top heater if your pool is pretty large. Onto the other hand, you supply the use of an on-the-ground heating setup. These Solar Pool Heaters are recommended for smaller warm. They are installed right near your pool and are angled at the ground to obtain the most sun exposure possible.
To date you experienced to honor the rules and settle the debts to their state electricity board. Now you can change this status. If you generate more power than you consume using Solar Electricity, the excess power could be sold into the state electricity board one individual earn a hefty take advantage of it. Control the movable parts boards usually be looking to obtain power, and therefore they is often more than happy to purchase the electrical power from owners. You can also charge up solar panels and sell them from my markets supplementations more moola.
Like any investment we make like stocks, we put up a certain amount of money and wish/hope/guess that a few time future point we get back that investment plus something more, the 'return'.
Moreover, before i write again you will clearly suffer of your high energy bills the natural fuel reserves of earth are limited. The natural fuel reserves may even deplete inside of a few is pretty. That kind of situation could be great peril to our generation and the next generations. For the reason, it's always make utilization of what anyone might have today, that may be the Solar Pool Heating. You do not only simultaneously by going green from energy bills, the also saving the environment by lowering the harmful fumes that men and women develop create.
So the same logic follows for a pool, ok? Putting a blanket or cover compared to a pool get create profound savings anyone personally. A pool cover (something say for example a Thermal Pool Cover) ranges in cost from $60.00 to $130.00 for most residential regularly. Rollers, which make putting the pool cover as well as off more convenient, start at around $185.00.
Thus you'll need be willing to light your property and provide electricity for all of your regular appliances devoid of utility bills dropping via your letterbox regular monthly.

Had this from the excellent socialist unity, argos FCUK I say.
Argos workers in the Republic of Ireland are holding another one-day strike on the 18th December. Workers took strike action on the 1 December and how did management react? They flew in scab labour from England and Wales Argos stores to break the strike.
"Pickets were placed at the 18 Argos stores around the country in a one day work stoppage as part of a campaign for better pay. The second strike is on Tuesday 18th December.
Stores in Dublin, Cork, Limerick, Kilkenny, Athlone and Drogheda are among those being picketed".
Mandate is seeking a 10% pay rise for workers, two-thirds are earning just over 9.00 (euros) an hour. In 2006, Argos announced that they made profits of 8.1 billion (euros), profits are also up by 50% for the first half of 2007. Yet management won't accept the demand for a meagre 10% pay increase. More profits and bubbly for them at the share holders' Xmas party!!
Show your solidarity:
Send some Xmas misery by emailing/writing to the Chief Executive Terry Duddy at
or Argos Ltd, 489-499 Avebury Boulevard, Central Milton Keynes, MK9 2NW.
And ask Terry whether he still plans to fly over scab labour from Argos stores in England and Wales?
Boycott Argos
And of course write to your MP

Credit value: 15 Module convenor: Dr Justine McConnell Assessment: 1 x 3 hour examination (100%); coursework reassessment in exam period 3For Semester 1 Only Study Abroad students, the exam will be replaced by an essay/essays on a subject defined by the convenor.Teaching pattern: 2 x 1 hour classes, weeklyPre-requisites: None
Reassessment: Students are reassessed in the failed elements of assessment and by the same methods as the first attempt, except in Period 3 where the exam will be replaced by an essay/essays on a subject defined by the convenor.
This module interrogates the historical, social, cultural, material, and economic parameters that have come to shape the canon. Beginning with a theoretical overview of the constructions of the canon, the module will follow a broadly historical chronology, and will consider established definitions of the canon, as well as key debates and excerpts from key texts which counter these definitions.
Central to the module will be the following questions: what are the advantages and disadvantages of the canon as an organisational principle? How has it developed? In what way does it aid or hinder our reading of literary texts included or excluded from it? In what ways does the canon satisfy the different or even divergent interests of authors, publishers and readers? To what extent is it defined by historical circumstances and political stances? Is a redefined canon possible or desirable, especially in an age of global literature?
The Canon is designed to complement the three level 5 core modules offered by Comparative Literature which have a similar cross-period and theoretical focus, and which require students to consider the culture of books and their production, alongside their historical reception and critical interpretation.
The module aims to explore the ideas and motivations that lie behind the formation of the canon. Students will develop their analytical and critical skills as they examine and evaluate key debates surrounding the construction of the canon from antiquity to the present day.
By the end of the module, students will be able to demonstrate intellectual, transferable and practical skills appropriate to a Level 5 module and in particular will be able to:
The following books provide a good introduction to some of the themes of this module:
Students may wish to buy their own copies of the primary texts, but this will not be mandatory, as all texts studied are available from the library.
This module is open to students on degree programmes other than those offered by the Department of Comparative Literature (subject to approval by the module convenor and availability of places).
The modules run in each academic year are subject to change in line with staff availability and student demand so there is no guarantee every module will run. Module descriptions and information may vary depending between years.

On My Mind Monday: Former Noles to Play with Kobe Bryant
- Updated: January 27, 2020
The sports world unexpectedly said goodbye to a legend on Sunday as former NBA superstar Kobe Bryant and his 13-year-old daughter Giana were among nine tragically killed in a Los Angeles-area helicopter crash.
One of the greatest players in the history of basketball and an iconic sports figure of a generation, Bryant's unexpected death shook the sports world. During his 20-year career with the Los Angeles Lakers, Bryant was an 18-time All-Star, a 5-time world champion, a 4-time All-Star Game MVP, a 2-time NBA Finals MVP, a 2-time scoring champion and a league MVP.
Just 41 years old, Bryant was also a 2-time Olympic gold medalist. In an 11-year span from 2000 to 2010, he played in the NBA Finals seven times.
Over 20 seasons, Bryant played with many different players. That includes a pair of former Seminoles. Here's a look at the former FSU players to play with the late legend:
George McCloud, G/F
Seasons with Bryant: 1996-97
Stats: 4.1 PPG, 1.6 RPG, 43% 3PT
Overview: Sharpshooter George McCloud was a midseason acquisition from the Dallas Mavericks during Kobe Bryant's rookie season with the Los Angeles Lakers. After averaging nearly 14 points per game with Dallas, McCloud averaged just 4.1 points in 23 games with the Lakers, including two starts. His best scoring effort was a 16-point night in a win over the Denver Nuggets. McCloud did not play for the Lakers that postseason. After a short stint with the Lakers, McCloud would spend five more seasons in the NBA with the Phoenix Suns and Denver Nuggets.
Von Wafer, G
Seasons with Bryant: 2005-06
Stats: 1.3 PPG, 75% FT
Overview: A second-round pick of the Los Angeles Lakers during the 2005 NBA Draft, Von Wafer lasted just one season and played just 16 games with Bryant and the Lakers. Wafer's best game that season was a 9-point effort in a loss to the Utah Jazz. Wafer would spend six seasons in the NBA with seven different teams. His best season came during the 2008-09 campaign when he shot 45 percent and averaged nearly 10 points per game for the Houston Rockets.

New study says having a big butt is good for your health
- Publish Date
- Monday, 7 August 2017, 1:49PM
Well we won't argue with this bad boy!
The research was published in a journal called Cell Metabolism, and the results indicated that when fat is stored in the lower half of the body it doesn't travel to vital organs like the heart and lungs.
In simple terms, the findings means that not as much fat is released into the bloodstream, so it doesn't go on to cause as many complications further down the track.
It's important to note that the research conducted at the University of Tubingen, Germany does not apply to people who are overweight. They used MRI scans and regular health checks to observe fat distribution in patients, and found the study applies to men as well but is most prominent in women.

Isabel Alexander (1910-1996): Artist and Illustrator, Mercer Art Gallery, HarrogatePosted: February 2, 2017 Filed under: Uncategorized | Tags: Abstract art, architecture, art, art education, art teaching, artists, books, buildings, documentary, drawings, East Anglia, Education, Essex, events, exhibitions, film, Galleries, Great Bardfield, Harrogate, illustration, Isabel Alexander, Kent, landscape, Mercer Art Gallery, painting, Pictures for Schools, places, post-war, prints, realism, schools, Slade, Suffolk, teacher training, teaching, Wales, women, Yorkshire 1 Comment
The story of Isabel Alexander is by no means an uncommon one. Born into a middle-class, educated family in Birmingham in 1910, as a daughter she was denied her first choice of an education, to train at the Slade. Instead, she attended Birmingham School of Art in the 1920s before finding employment in schools and at Saffron Walden teacher training college in order to pursue her training and practice as an artist. This determination to work and exhibit enabled self-funded studies at the Slade, and a fifty-year career as an artist, pursued at the same time as being a single mother.
After the Slade Alexander went on to work in the burgeoning British documentary film movement of the 1930s and as a commercial illustrator. She designed book tokens vividly illustrating rural life and occupations in East Anglia, Kent and the Cotswolds (1953) and undertook botanical illustrations for the educational Puffin picture book series, such as the close-up study 'Penicillum' (1948) from the unpublished follow-up to the Story of Plants, where aspects of nature are observed in a way that exaggerates and exacerbates their qualities and form.
Alexander succeeds at documentary and narrative, as in her 1944 portraits of disabled miners. She also aptly captures place: highlights include 'Pinnacle, Thaxted Church', a 1951 linoprint of a church spire in which natural and architectural details are intertwined and 'Bardfield Landscape III', a subtly abstract, yellow-hued watercolour of 1950. Both are inspired by the Essex landscape; she settled in the picturesque and historic village of Thaxted, on the border with Suffolk, before relocating to North Yorkshire for the final years of her life.
In the 1960s Alexander exhibited drawings and paintings at the Pictures for Schools exhibitions, selling work to schools including Godolphin and Latymer School in London and Cambridgeshire and Nottinghamshire education committees. She maintained a commitment not just to exhibiting herself, but to keeping up with visits to exhibitions and maintaining an ongoing interest in contemporary and historical art movements.
A new exhibition of Alexander's work in Harrogate, bringing together work from private collections and accompanied by a book by Janet McKenzie, aims to highlight her legacy and expose the barriers she faced as a woman seeking a career as an artist. It also traces Alexander's journey from realism to a growing focus on abstraction and experimentation with media and form.
However, the work in the exhibition suggests Alexander's transition between realism and abstraction was not clear-cut, and a sense of abstraction and experimentation underlies much of her apparently realistic and naturalistic work. For example, the use of an unexpectedly lurid crayon introduces an ominous element into the otherwise murkily coloured landscape of 'Condemned Houses, Blaencwm' (1943), as does the skewed perspective of 'Miners' Houses, Trealaw' (1944).
Displayed side by side at the Mercer Art Gallery, the watercolours 'Moorland Larches, Yorkshire' (1983) and 'Winter Trees I' (1971) hint at abstraction in their use of starkly outlined shape and colour, at the same time as conveying the particulars of landscape and season in a way that is sensory and atmospheric if not quite realistic and naturalistic.
Also not quite natural, but based in observable phenomena such as the flickering shapes and suggestive shadows of twilight and the transition to darkness, is the 1958 study 'Moonlight'.
Other highlights include her pencil studies of weather phenomena and later, more large-scale and obviously abstract work in which experiences, natural phenomena and sensations elide, as in 'Weeds and Water' (1984) and 'Gannet' (1985) in which oils on newspaper explore the bird's movement at the same time as suggesting watery flows.
Whilst much of her work documents places, landscapes and experiences close and familiar to her, Alexander maintained a commitment to travel and observation of new places, from a series inspired by the natural and manmade landscapes of the Isle of Aran to painting trips to France and Spain. Far from following the well-trodden genre of straightforward pastoralism, beneath Alexander's work lies a tension between nature and artifice, implying a subtle critique of ways of working, living and using the landscape that that are alienating, exploitative or unnatural.
Isabel Alexander: Artist and Illustrator is at the Mercer Art Gallery, Harrogate until 4 June.
A large number of images of Isabel Alexander's works have been added to the Bridgeman Art Library and can be explored alongside the exhibition.
Guest blog post for the Cambridge Primary Review Trust (and a note on Isabel Alexander)Posted: January 16, 2015 Filed under: Uncategorized | Tags: art, artists, Cambridge, Cambridge Primary Review Trust, Cambridgeshire, collections, Essex, Isabel Alexander, loan collections, Painters, Pictures for Schools, schools 1 Comment
Further to the reference in my last blog post about the fascinating stories behind some of the artists submitting and selling work through Pictures for Schools, and the frustrations of trying to find information about some of these artists, many of whose names are no longer known, I recently received an email from Professor Robin Alexander, Chair of the Cambridge Primary Review Trust, whose mother, the painter Isabel Alexander, submitted several paintings and lithographs to Pictures for Schools over a five-year period in the 1960s. Professor Alexander told me that though she exhibited widely at the time and attracted "quite a following", with her work represented in public collections, she remains relatively unknown today. I was able to tell Professor Alexander about some of the buyers of his mother's work (primarily landscapes, although she had moved towards more abstract work by this point), which included Godolphin and Latymer School in Hammersmith, Nottingham Education Committee and Cambridge Education Committee (which still appears to have the work in its collection) and in return he sent me some images of her bold, vibrant paintings and illustrations and a brief biography.
Isabel Alexander had a long and interesting life and I wad pleased to hear about her story. After Birmingham School of Art she taught briefly and then attended the Slade, before returning to teaching in Bromley, Banbury and Rotherham and later lecturing at Saffron Walden Training College. Professor Alexander told me that she was a member of the Society for Education through Art and subscribed to its journal Athene, so was well aware of developments in education. She travelled in Europe and went on to work in the documentary film movement in the 1940s. Her painting and illustrative work included drawing for Mass Observation, social documentary work of Welsh towns and miners and illustrating Puffin picture books. Pictures for Schools had strong links with East Anglia and Essex (with the Great Bardfield group of artists being closely involved with the scheme), and Isabel Alexander lived in Thaxted in Essex. Along with Pictures for Schools, she also contributed to a scheme for Pictures in Essex Hospitals.
After corresponding about my research and the work of Isabel Alexander over email, Professor Alexander invited me to contribute a guest blog post to the CPRT blog, partly to raise awareness and partly to try and stimulate debate about the role of original artworks in schools today and the value of the creative curriculum, which has now been published at http://cprtrust.org.uk/cprt-blog/pictures-for-schools-a-brilliant-idea-worth-reviving-or-an-expensive-luxury.

"It's not an issue for me to comment on. I have never meddled in players' private lives and I'm not going to start now. Players can do want they want out of work," he said at a press conference on Friday. Sergio Ramos is also absent, with Nacho set to continue at the heart of Los Blancos's defence. Real Madrid will be looking to stretch their lead over Barcelona at the top of la Liga to four points when they take on Deportivo de la Coruña on Saturday evening after a hard week on and off the pitch. Following their 4-0 humiliation to Atletico Madrid at the Vicente Calderon last weekend, stories began to circulate about the future of talisman Cristiano Ronaldo after his 30th birthday party against club wishes. Ronaldo has since apologised for his actions amid criticism from fans and will be focused on adding to the one-point lead Madrid currently hold over Barça, who host Levante on Sunday. Harry De Cosemo 13/02/2015 "They have a great responsibility in representing the Madrid shirt and I value all of them as professionals – that has never been a doubt in my mind." Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti has downplayed the drama over his star man and says he has no problem with the professionalism of his squad. After a less than convincing performance at the Calderon, Iker Casillas's place is in doubt, so Keylor Navas could come in for just his third league start since joining the club in the summer from Levante. Gareth Bale will yet again be out to prove a point to the growing number of disgruntled Madridistas, who have voiced their frustrations at his lack of goals and work-rate recently. Real head into the game with mounting injury problems. James Rodriguez and Sami Khedira, also in hot water with the club after attending the party while injured, will miss out alongside Luka Modric and Pepe. Upd. at 21:22 Marcelo returns from suspension having missed the derby last time out and Lucas Silva could be set for his debut in midfield having moved from Cruzeiro last month, but Ancelotti says he will not start the game. "The only problem is when others see it as a lack of professionalism, but these players have shown that they are professional and committed – they demonstrated that last season when they won several trophies. CET Back in September, Real travelled to the Riazor to face Depor licking their wounds after a home defeat to Atleti, but were able to bounce back in spectacular style with an 8-2 victory. That day, a Ronaldo hat-trick and a brace from Bale and helped them to three points – how both players would love a repeat to ease the tension at the Santiago Bernabeu on Saturday.

Spanish police seize Champions League final fake tickets
Spanish police have seized fake steward bibs, imitation devices for the technical ticket check and false accreditations as demand for Champions League final tickets intensified.With estimates claiming 100,000 fans have descended on Madrid for the all-Premier League clash between Liverpool and Tottenham the quest to get tickets – both clubs got less than 17,000 each – has become almost impossible.UEFA issued a warning about fake tickets circulating on the black market and police have stepped up their clampdown on what is an organised attempt to defraud supporters or – at worst – steal their authentic tickets.Rumours swept the city that 4,000 official tickets would be released on Saturday morning but this has been dismissed by UEFA."The Spanish police have seized fake steward bibs, fake devices for the technical ticket check, as well as fake accreditations," said a statement from European football's governing body."This makes us believe that an organised group of people, impersonating genuine stewards or officials might try to act as if they were conducting the visual or technical ticket check, with the aim of stealing tickets during such controls."Supporters should therefore make sure they only show their tickets at the clearly marked check zones and not to individuals or small groups of people who could be wearing fake bibs and might approach them on the way to the stadium, outside of the official check zones."
Suddie crime wave
Dear Editor,A crime wave is now ripping through the once quiet and peaceful location of my village, Suddie, Essequibo Coast, and the neighbouring environment, with the perpetrators posing a challenge to Police, with most incidents remaining unsolved, much to the suffering of the local residents.I was the most recent victim, as the bottom-flat of my residence was broken into on January 26 and a quantity of articles were stolen, with the majority of items being cooked food from the refrigerator, along with beverages and some cash.From all appearances, it would seem that the culprit(s) was/were more interested in foodstuff items, as they did not steal a computer, radio or cellphone, among other valuables which were at their disposal.A crow bar, left behind by the bandit(s), was used to gain entry through the bottom-half of the back door. The Police were alerted to the scene and dusted for fingerprints from the well-ransacked house, with books and stationary scattered about in an apparent hope to find money.During the first month of the year, a business next door to me was broken into during the night while the owner was at home. A quantity of articles were stolen from her shop.Just a short distance away, an attempt was also made to break into a shop, but it was foiled after an alarm was raised while the bandits were in the process of wrenching-off the padlocks during the night.At the Sea Road area, an elderly woman had her house set alight by bandits who escaped with some ,000 in cash and household items after gaining entry. A known character was charged for the offence and remanded.In the Suddie Housing Scheme, a sickly woman who lives alone, left to get medication in the city, only to return and that her house was broken into and all her household items stolen.Several other incidents of break and enter and larceny were committed during the past two months in the Onderneeming Sand Pit area, inclusive of Little Red Village housing scheme, with the victims still mystified by the Police failing miserably to suppress the alarming situation.Yours faithfully,Baliram Persaud
Chinese Embassy Donates Computers to Faith Foundation School
The Chinese Embassy near Monrovia has donated 10 brand new Dell desktop computers to the Faith Foundation School in Congo Town. The ceremony took place in the edifice of the Bethel Cathedral of Hope, which is the parent institution of the school.Making the donation on behalf of the Embassy, Mr. Li Zhuang, Deputy Chief of Mission, said the school was chosen because of its high quality and advanced teaching methodology, which has deeply attracted students."As developing countries, both the Chinese and the Liberian governments put education as one of the top priorities. China is deeply affected by the problems and challenges which Liberia is facing, because it has experienced almost the same during the development process," said Mr. Li. Yesterday's donation, he said, was a small step forward that indicates the Chinese people's strong willingness to promote education, cooperation, and collaboration with Liberia.Mr. Li reminded the audience about the immense efforts China has made over the years to Liberia's education sector. He said the Chinese government provides a yearly grant of 50 scholarships to Liberian students as well as training opportunities to 120 Liberian personnel in different disciplines."We provide the Chinese Ambassador Scholarship and Chinese Enterprises Scholarship every year to 10 Liberian universities with a number of more than 300 beneficiaries," he said.He named the construction of the Fendell Campus of the University of Liberia; the extension of the Monrovia Vocational Training Center (MVTC); three laboratories, and the newly built Information and Communication Technology (ICT) center in Zorzor, Kakata; and on the campus of the University of Liberia (UL) through the United Nations Education, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) China Funds-in-Trust project; as tangible evidence of China's commitment to education in Liberia.Mr. Li has meanwhile encouraged the students to take full advantage of the donation and study hard to empower themselves toward successful careers. He said the future of Liberia and China's friendship rests with the youth, and therefore the youth must strive to make their contribution to solidify the friendship.Faith Foundation School Principal, Mrs. Della B. Belleh, who received the donation, expressed gratitude to the delegation from the Chinese Embassy for the kind gesture.Mrs. Belleh assured Mr. Li that the computers will be used by the students during the upcoming academic year.The donation, according to Mrs. Belleh, was made through special arrangements headed by Dr. Augustine Konneh, Director General of the Foreign Service Institute, who is also a member of the Board of the Faith Foundation School. The school is owned and operated by the Bethel World Outreach Ministries International.Share this:Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)
Galatasaray left facing tough trip to Schalke
0Shares0000ISTANBUL, Turkey February 21 – Galatasaray midfielder Nordin Amrabat has admitted the ambitious Turkish team face an uphill task to stay in the Champions League after their 1-1 draw at home to Schalke 04 in the last 16, first-leg.The Royal Blues take a slim advantage back to Gelsenkirchen for the return leg on March 12 after Burak Yilmaz gave Galatasaray an early lead, before US midfielder Jermaine Jones levelled for Schalke on the stroke of half-time."The formula for victory is very simple: we need to score and win, but it won't be easy," said Amrabat after Wednesday's game. Schalke 04 ignored poor recent form to hold the hosts and could have left the Turk Telekom Arena with a win after missing a host of chances as Galatasaray, including star signings Didier Drogba and Wesley Sneijder, failed to fire.The Royal Blues arrived in Istanbul with one win in their last 12 games, but, along with neighbours Borussia Dortmund and Juventus, are now one of only three undefeated teams left in this season's Champions League."We are really happy with the result," beamed goal-scorer Jones. "We made one or two mistakes and conceded the goal, but all together we played well."Our goal was important, we'll see how things go from here. We have earned a lot of respect."However, Jones is suspended for the return leg on March 12 after his appeals for a booking against Selcuk Inan saw him earn a yellow card of his own on 35 minutes."The action which led to my yellow card was dumb from me, I hope I can still play in the quarter-final," he added.Schalke have now lost just one of their last ten European away fixtures, including victories at Olympiakos and Arsenal.With Dortmund having earned a 2-2 draw at Donetsk and after Bayern Munich's impressive 3-1 win at Arsenal on Tuesday, all three Bundesliga clubs have a strong chance of making the quarter-finals."It was a great game from my team, it was a very compact and engaged team performance" said relieved Schalke coach Jens Keller, who was making his Champions League debut as coach."We created a few chances, but unfortunately didn't take them all."Schalke's rising star Julian Draxler, who made three appearances for the senior Germany team last year having risen up the ranks, said the draw was an important confidence booster."We put in a focused performance and are in a good position ahead of the return leg," said the 19-year-old midfielder."We have experienced some problems in the past few weeks, but with today's performance we can go into the return leg with some confidence." Despite Drogba and Sneijder making their Champions League debuts for the ambitious Turkish club since joining last month from Shanghai Shenhua and Inter Milan respectively, both had quiet games as the hosts failed to dominate."In the first half, the atmosphere was really intense, but it wasn't so bad after the break," said Schalke goalkeeper Timo Hildebrand."We can still be real spoilsports, Schalke are a team for the big competition."Even when things go to pot, we're still here."0Shares0000(Visited 1 times, 1 visits today)

YouTube's copyright plan may help, hurt
AD Quality Auto 360p 720p 1080p Top articles1/5READ MOREThe joys and headaches of holiday travel: John Phillips"If the video migrates to other places, I fear the audience will too, so YouTube needs to be really careful about how it does this," he said. YouTube offers a gold mine of clips depicting all manner of amateur hijinks and tons of unauthorized commercial videos. Kevin Davis, a 16-year-old from Torrance, likes to peruse YouTube for music videos by R&B singer Chris Brown and rappers Lil Wayne and The Game. "I find what I'm looking for most of the time," he said. YouTube, based in San Mateo, has licensing deals with CBS Corp. and three major recording companies – Warner Music Group, Vivendi's Universal Music Group and Sony BMG Music Entertainment. The entertainment companies will get a cut of YouTube ad revenue each time someone views a video licensed by them. YouTube stressed that it won't be filtering content itself. A technology designed to detect copyright material could give YouTube a needed dose of legal legitimacy and calm any concerns Google Inc. has about spending $1.65billion on the Internet video site. But that same technology could hurt YouTube's edgy appeal. While YouTube is known as the place to find almost any kind of video clip, recent agreements with high-profile content creators require YouTube to deploy an audio-signature technology that can spot a low-quality copy of a licensed music video or other content. YouTube would have to substitute an approved version of the clip or take the material down automatically. Analysts said that stepped-up monitoring by entertainment companies raises the likelihood that YouTube fans won't find what they're used to getting – and will go searching for the next online video rebel. "There's very little that holds YouTube's audience to YouTube except the belief that whatever they want to see, there is a very good chance YouTube will have it," said Joe Laszlo, senior analyst with Jupiter Research. Instead, the technology being developed will allow copyright owners "to identify their content, locate it and then make a decision based on whether they want to remove it," spokeswoman Julie Supan said. The new technology will be designed to scan a digital audio file, such as an MP3 or video, and compare the electronic "fingerprints" to databases of copyright material. But copyrights can be tricky on sites such as YouTube. Even a homemade video can run afoul of the law if it has a professional song playing in the background. Amateur concert footage and other video may be pulled from sites as a precaution simply because it's unclear who owns the rights. "We're going to probably see a lot of instances like that," said Michael McGuire, a technology analyst for Gartner Inc. "It's going to be a constant game of cat and mouse." YouTube did not provide further details on the technology, which it expects to roll out by the end of the year. Some analysts doubt the screening technology will be foolproof. For example, detecting someone singing a copyright song on a homemade video could be difficult because the sound would not exactly match the original recording. "It's impossible to be completely effective," said Josh Bernoff, a digital video analyst with Forrester Research. "The devil's in the details." YouTube's final product could resemble a system developed by Audible Magic Inc., which has compiled electronic fingerprints for more than 4million recordings to compare with content posted on iMesh, an online file-sharing application. Another video-sharing site, Guba LLC, which hosts user-generated videos as well as Hollywood movies that can be streamed or downloaded for a fee, uses a different content filtering technology dubbed "Johnny" that has been endorsed by major film studios.

Europe copes with own hot streak
PARIS – How hot is it? So hot that there was an ice cream shortage in Sweden. So hot that Polish lawmakers held a special Mass to pray for rain. Europe, from north to south, east to west, has sizzled through July with power outages and scores of deaths. The heat wave even brought a sinister reminder of the past, with officials in eastern Germany warning that World War II munitions might surface as river levels dropped. In Ireland, where the average temperature in July is normally 59 degrees, the temperature soared to 88 on July 19 – the hottest day since August 1995. AD Quality Auto 360p 720p 1080p Top articles1/5READ MOREPhotos: At LA County Jail, Archbishop José H. Gomez celebrates Christmas Mass with inmates"It's amazing how quickly we've got used to it. We seem to think we're Mediterranean now," said Brendan O'Connor, a newspaper and TV satirist. "There's even a danger that we'll start drinking sensibly." Elsewhere, records also were being set. Germany, like Britain, has experienced the hottest July on record. In France, officials were frantic to avoid a repeat of the summer of 2003, when 15,000 people – most of them elderly – died of heat-related causes. This year, medical students were recruited to help doctors, advice was broadcast day and night on radio and television with reminders to drink water and stay indoors. A media campaign to boost neighborliness, and ensure no elderly are forgotten, went into full swing. Even the Eiffel Tower was not left out. Four giant misters were installed at its base to douse overheated tourists. Still, French health authorities reported 64 deaths by Thursday. Throughout July, temperatures cruised in the high 90s to more than 100 in Europe – high for a continent where air conditioning is generally the exception. But as anyone taking public transport knows, it was hotter than that. In Britain, road surfaces melted, and the Evening Standard newspaper measured temperatures on the Underground at a stifling 117 degrees. Necessity is the mother of invention. While the young, and less young, romped in fountains in Rome and Paris, those obliged to take subways in London or Paris used fans – hand-held or battery operated – to try to stay cool. The heat has wreaked havoc with electricity supplies. More than 1,000 businesses in London's major shopping district were left without power Thursday, with the electric grid overwhelmed by demand. A state-owned power operator in the Czech Republic halted energy exports to neighboring countries and forced major industrial consumers to cut electricity use for several hours Tuesday.160Want local news?Sign up for the Localist and stay informed Something went wrong.

AD Quality Auto 360p 720p 1080p Top articles1/5READ MORESurfer attacked by shark near Channel Islands calls rescue a 'Christmas miracle'Additionally, a new hip prosthesis with a large joint known as a "BFH" (big femoral head) allowed Mossman to return to work in less than a week following his second surgery. "I was checked out of the hospital within 72 hours with a walker," said Mossman, whose first replacement used the traditional surgical method and took longer to heal. "I used the walker for less than a week and went straight back to work." This weekend Mossman will be back doing what he loves best – drag racing. He'll compete in the 2006 Goodguys Fuel & Gas Finals at the Famoso Raceway near Bakersfield. Mossman, who has been an avid drag racer for the past six years, spent seven years and $150,000 building his 1972 Malibu funny car, which can go a quarter-mile in seven seconds, he said. It will be his first drag race since his hips first began giving him trouble and comes just three weeks after the BFH surgery. "It's the best thing since aspirin," Mossman said of the surgery. Using specialized tools, the PATH method only requires an incision about one-third the size of that necessary in traditional hip replacement surgeries, resulting in less trauma to the area, said Mossman's orthopaedic surgeon, Dr. Stephen Riffenburgh of Pasadena. "There are two parts to Kevin's surgery that are relatively new," Riffenburgh said. "One is the actual prosthesis itself and the second \ is the procedure we used to insert it into the joint." Riffenburgh said the bigger head of the BFH is less likely to be dislocated and offers a broader range of motion to active people like Mossman. Although Riffenburgh did put the new BFH replacement in both of Mossman's hips, he only became aware of the new PATH procedure during the time between Mossman's surgeries. "Kevin didn't have the best experience with his first surgery when we used the traditional method," Riffenburgh said. "He took a while to heal. But when we used PATH, he was up walking the day after surgery." firstname.lastname@example.com (562) 698-0955, Ext. 3029 160Want local news?Sign up for the Localist and stay informed Something went wrong.

WHITTIER – When Kevin Mossman became debilitated by an early case of arthritis in both hips last year, he feared his drag racing days would be over. The sharp pain caused Mossman, 44, to experience difficulties folding his 6-foot, 300-pound frame in and out of his shiny red 1972 Chevy Malibu hot rod. By the time the Whittier resident finally went in for medical treatment, doctors found an eight-month-old fracture in his left hip that had resulted in bone spurs and the beginnings of arthritic degeneration in the right hip. But Mossman regained full mobility after undergoing two surgeries – one of which used a new hip replacement procedure called Percutaneous Assisted Total Hip replacement.

Child gambling on the rise? I wouldn't bet on it
The Gambling Commission's latest figures show the kids are all right.
Jon Bryan
Every year, the Gambling Commission publishes research on young people and gambling just in time for some of the stats to be splashed across horror headlines around Halloween. 'Now 55,000 children are gambling addicts – quadruple the number only three years ago', thundered the Daily Mail, to give one example.
Labour's Tom Watson quoted the same figure to claim that, 'Levels of gambling among children remain stubbornly high. One child gambling addict is too many, let alone 55,000.' Watson also criticised the government's 'soft-touch approach to gambling regulation' and promised major gambling reform under a Labour government. The Church of England also weighed in. It said the 'crisis' of child gambling is 'a national scandal'.
You could be forgiven for thinking that we were seeing a continued increase in figures which indicate a significant problem, and that we need new gambling laws to change behaviour and restrict access. But look beneath the headlines and there is actually a great deal of positive news in the Gambling Commission's report.
The report makes clear that, 'The long-term trend shows a decline in [gambling] participation since the questions were first asked in 2011'. Surely this is something to celebrate? And yet it is barely remarked upon because it doesn't fit the dominant narrative – that gambling by children is out of control and we need more regulation.
In the most recent survey, 11 per cent of 11- to 16-year-olds said they had spent their own money on gambling in the past seven days, compared to 14 per cent in 2018. Tom Watson uses this figure to claim that 'one in 10 children is gambling every week'.
But again, scratch the surface a little and things are not as dire as they appear. The most prevalent form of gambling among young people is having a bet with a friend. In other words, kids are saying to each other: 'I bet you two quid that United lose again this weekend.' The stats do not say that large numbers of kids are nipping into the bookies – illegally – on the way home from school or are placing bets online.
More good news found by the research is that the 'majority of young people think that gambling is dangerous and feel well-informed about the risks (59 per cent and 60 per cent respectively)'.
Gambling advertising should not cause undue concern, either. For example, although '69 per cent of young people have seen or heard some form of gambling adverts or sponsorships', it appears that this has not had the kind of impact that many fear. Eighty-three per cent of respondents said that 'gambling adverts have not prompted them to spend money on gambling when they were not otherwise planning to'.
There is also some good news on how we as a society are bringing up children. Half of young people 'have been spoken to about the potential problems that gambling can lead to'. And three quarters (74 per cent) 'know who they would go to for help if they had problems related to gambling'.
More parents and guardians set rules about gambling than don't (23 per cent versus 20 per cent). And the majority of children also said that they would go to their parents for help if they needed it, with parents and guardians the first port of call for more than half of children.
Horror headlines – accurate or not – will often lead to calls for more regulation and restrictions. Of course, it is totally understandable to worry about children and gambling, but this research should provide some reassurance.

All the problem gamblers I know started in childhood playing cards for money with their friends and feeding fruit machines. They inevitably cheat and are dishonest. You'll see them playing the puggies in fast food outlets everywhere.
Talking about majority this and that is ducking the issue of the minority who develop serious problems.
The gist of the article is that well brought up middle class children are unaffected, so haul up the ladder Jack. Shameful, but helpful – to the gambling trade. The official sanctioning of childhood behaviour that has the potential to ruin a life is wrong. As are it lackeys in the press and media. Our duty is to protect children. All of them.

For some, the answer to *every* question is more regulations. This has been the downfall of society since, I'll say, 1960. Every week, every month, there are minority interest groups campaigning for some action in their favour. What this amounts to is benefit to the few and cost to the many. Whilst from time to time we might be in the minority, for most of the time, statistically, we are not. Hence unless the benefit to the minority is so great it outweighs the cost to the majority, we, as a society, will be net losers.

It is in precisely this sort of discussion that citizen invoked binding direct democracy becomes a really useful revealing tool.
The point about the concept is that before there is a vote, there is a public petition organised by proponents of the given idea. If they in particular cannot reach an agreed referendum trigger by receiving enough signatures.

No! You have to have money in the first place to gamble, and if the left want to harp on about children gambling they have to admit the kids have money in the first place.

Child poverty is measured by parental income, not how it is spent.
