Enriching design practice by the mapping of human behaviour patterns could transform urban space
There's much debate about how to measure density – dwellings per hectare, bedrooms per hectare or people per hectare; including or excluding major highways, parks and open spaces; the permanent population only or the transient one too?
While this gives urban planners something to disagree about, it risks missing the point: great urban places are not created by density; they're created by intensity. The difference matters. When people describe the buzz of a market they don't say, 'Wow – it was so dense'. They're much more likely to say how intense it was. Density is a word used by planners. Intensity is a word that real people use, and perhaps because it describes the outcomes that people experience rather than the inputs that have gone into creating them. It's the outcomes that are ultimately more important.
But planning professionals like density. Even though density doesn't capture the essence of what it feels like to be somewhere, the term appeals to professional instincts. It describes the raw ingredients that planners have to handle and, once you choose which version of the formula to use, density is easy to measure. It involves a simple calculation of straightforward urban quantities such as the number of people, of houses or of bedrooms, all divided by the geographic area over which those ingredients occur. Easy.
By contrast, intensity seems more difficult to pin down, not least because it appears to have a subjectively emotional dimension; it speaks of feelings, responses, stimuli; raising problems about how it can be measured. But intensity is also a response to context, to place and above all to people – and here we find clues to its measurement.

So what are the factors that people are responding to when they instinctively feel the intensity of a great place? For a start, they can't be calculating a planner's measure of urban density because, even if they were so minded, they couldn't possibly know about populations and geographic areas when they're walking along a street or sitting at a café table in a public space.
What people can respond to is what's happening around them in the public realm: they can see how many other people there are, and they can see what these people are up to. In other words, intensity is obvious, immediate and instinctively calculable to the person in the street: not only the mobile population of walkers, drivers and cyclists, but also the immobile population of sitters, leaners and pausers. Intensity has a static as well as a kinetic dimension. Indeed the stationary people are the essential ingredient of intensity. They are the people who have chosen to be there, to add to the place through their semi-permanence and not simply pass through on the way somewhere else. So intensity is not about the population density of an area but the population that's participating in the public realm of an area. This should be obvious, but any attempt to emphasise the benefits of static participation runs counter to the mindset of the traffic engineer and to the kinetic legacy of Le Corbusier, who described 'grinding gears and burning gasoline' as the pleasurable objective of the Plan Voisin.
'We end up with an urbanism of averages and a morphology of enclaves through an approach much too simplistic to create great places'
Intense places are 'sticky', especially when people are not only co-present in space but when they are also interacting: talking to each other, sharing thoughts, ideas, opinions. This is the essence of intensity; there is an exchange – a transaction – be it economic, social, cultural, intellectual, factual or simply facile. It's the daily public life of every thriving village, town and city. It is unnoticed, unobserved and unmeasured. Until it's not there. And that's when you feel it most clearly.
Several years ago, Space Syntax was working on a sample of towns across the UK, some historic and some new. The towns had similar residential populations and similar retail floorspace provisions across similar geographical areas, in other words, similar densities. But what the team had also done was to count the numbers of people using the centres of each town: how many were walking and sitting in public space. They'd counted over several days, from morning until evening. What they found was that the historic towns consistently had many more people using their centres than the new ones – and they knew from other evidence that the historic towns had stronger economic performances. Here then were places with similar urban densities but different intensities of human activity.
What seemed to explain the differences between historic and new towns were, first, the spatial layout, and second, the street design of each place. The historic towns were laid out around radial streets that were designed to carry cars as well as larger vehicles and which met at the centre of the town in a public space. Behind these radial streets were more or less continuously connected grids of residential streets, interrupted by the occasional large open space. Both cars and pedestrians could use the residential streets, while the open spaces were generally for pedestrians only. There was some limited pedestrianisation in the very centre of each town.
'The professions will be unwise if they avoid the opportunities presented by technology'
By contrast, the new towns often had separate street networks for vehicles and pedestrians, no high street or central public space, and usually a shopping mall or two. The central areas were typically pedestrianised and spatially separated from residential areas by a vehicle-only ring road; these residential areas were separated from each other by swathes of open space.
To summarise, the key differences were in the intensity of the human experience, and in the design of the street network. Intensity, it seems, is facilitated by an alignment of physical and spatial factors: having the movement-sensitive land uses on sufficiently well-connected streets that are, in the main, shared by vehicles and pedestrians.
Importantly, both the amount of human activity and the degree of street connectivity are measurable commodities – if you know how to do it. It's our day job at Space Syntax and it has two key parts: one part that takes place in the studio, using purpose-designed software that measures the amount of connectivity in street grids, and the other part that happens on site using some form of counting device. This device may be a camera strapped to a lamp post or, in recent years, a drone flight. Or it may simply be a set of human eyes, a pencil and a notepad.
Onto these 'foundational' datasets is added other information, which might be about air quality, land value, crime rates or health outcomes. Statistical software is used to explore relations between the datasets: how is health or wealth or educational achievement related to spatial connectivity or isolation? The product of this process is called an Integrated Urban Model: a quantitative record of urban form and urban performance. A geographic information system (GIS) is used to hold the datasets in one place and a basic form of artificial intelligence is run to explore the links between the data.
Fragmented city
However, it is possible to create a primitive version of a data platform using only PowerPoint and Excel. Space Syntax began its work before the Macintosh, before colour screens, before the internet, before CAD, before GIS and long before BIM. Its observations of pedestrian movements around Trafalgar Square were done with pen and paper, the results coded manually into a simple drawing programme.
'Intense places are "sticky", especially when people are not only co-present in space but when they are also interacting'
What matters today is what mattered then: to bring data to life using maps and colours rather than spreadsheets and charts. This makes the information accessible to audiences making judgements about the future of places: investors, planning teams, politicians and local communities. Measures of intensity need to speak to multiple audiences, not least to the design community, into whose creative hands is entrusted the responsibility for shaping the aspirations of stakeholders. An Integrated Urban Model must be nimble, capable of responding again and again to the short and intensive programme of a rapid design process. Beware the Smart City 'Control Room' stuffed with technicians; embrace instead a portable platform that can respond to the timescale of a creative whim.
Why don't we measure towns and cities in a systematic way? Why isn't there a profession of urban intensity surveyors? And a culture among architects and urban planners of designing for intense human interactions?
The problems start when the responsibility for thinking about cities, streets and public spaces moves from the individual enjoying the buzz of the boulevard to the collective of professional institutions charged with creating place. Density prevails over intensity and we revert to simplifications. Assumptions are made, incorrectly, that the quality of street life will be in direct proportion to the density of people in an area. That if we have more people, then the streets will be busier, and the busier the streets, the better the place. But then the counterview is quite reasonably made that people need quiet streets and so densities shouldn't be too high. A compromise is eventually reached: 'Let's not have super-high or super-low densities. Let's not have towns that are too big or too small. And if we need big towns then let's break them up into manageable parcels. Since we want pedestrians then let's pedestrianise.'
Integrated city
We end up with an urbanism of averages and a morphology of enclaves through an approach much too simplistic to create great places. It's not born of science and doesn't reflect human experience: people know instinctively that you can turn off the busiest street in the city and immediately find yourself on a lane that is one of the quietest; that the intensity of the urban experience can transform itself in seconds. This is one of the joys of exploring great cities: they're not pervasively busy; they are intensely quiet too. They have a foreground grid of busy streets and a background grid of quiet ones. If we systematically measure urban intensity then we will understand how towns and cities work in ways that will transform design practice. And by transforming practice we will transform place.
The professions will be unwise if they avoid the opportunities presented by technology: of data capture, visualisation and analysis as well as broadband, social media, augmented reality (AR) and artificial intelligence (AI). Human activity is becoming more intense as a result of some of these technologies, providing another reason to systematically measure urban intensity. People are walking more slowly, ensconced in virtual worlds, while participating in physical space; seeing their surroundings augmented with pop-up information. The trend will continue as AR on our smartphones becomes AR on our spectacles. As well as talking to each other we will be talking to objects on display in shops, to screens in buildings and on streets, and to ourselves – our digital twin may appear as an avatar walking alongside us in our peripheral vision or in front of us when trying on clothes for us. This intensity of communication can already be seen in early-adopting countries, especially China, and it may seem strange at first. But there was a time, not long ago, when it seemed strangely ostentatious to put down a mobile phone on a table in a restaurant.
The brain has a finite processing capacity and so what goes into handling increased visual information will have to be taken away from the control of bodily function. People may therefore adapt to the amplified intensity of visual stimuli by moving ever more slowly. We will need more space for these intense activities and the obvious place is the street, where we will need more space for people. Road space will have to narrow and footways will have to widen. We will need more places to sit and lean – to be sticky. This presents a choice for designers: continue to disagree about the best way to measure density, or embrace intensity and anticipate the radical transformation of place.

Our library in the news
A "Book Tasting" added some variety to a recent 8th grade English class. Librarian Julianne Ross set up the experience for students to "sample" different books and write reviews in their menus so they would be able to return to the library later and select favorite books for independent reading. Ross grouped the books in courses — appetizers, salads, main courses and desserts. Each course had a different theme such as "Award Winners," "Non-Fiction," "New Releases," and "Virginia Choice Readers' Selections." As they "sampled" and…Read More >

Interview with Kati Lynne Boring – History Teacher & Blogger
As stated in my About Me , I love nothing more than meeting people from around the world, hearing and exchanging stories and experiences. I really enjoyed interviewing Kati and hearing her story.
Based in South Carolina USA, Kati is a history teacher, travel/history blogger and an inspiring book writer (in the making). She lives and breaths history and it is so refreshing to hear how much she enjoys teaching the next generation.
I wished I had a teacher like Kati when I was at school, it definitely would of made me sit up and learn more.
What made you want to become a History Teacher & Blogger?
I decided in kindergarden that I would be a teacher after only a few minutes into the classroom. I absolutely loved the experience and never doubted what I wanted to do. From that point forward, I was bound and determined to become a teacher. I decided to be a history teacher specifically because I love history so much.
I decided to take up travel blogging because I travel so much. Mostly, I travel to historic locations and explore the places of the past. I love history and traveling, so travel blogging about historic locations just came naturally.
What level/grades do you teach and where?
I teach at a high school in South Carolina. I teach high school so each year I could teach anyone in grades 9-12. This year and most years I teach 10th and 11th graders.
What does a typical day consist of?
A typical day in the classroom usually begins for me between 6:30 am and 7:20 am. I generally want to be in my classroom early and get things gathered and ready for the kids. The kids will arrive at 8:20 am and their day lasts until 3:40 pm. So, in most cases, I teach 3 out of 4 blocks. A "block" is a 90 minute section of time when the students are in my classroom learning my specific course. Its a hard job but there are a lot of emotional rewards people are not always aware of. Seeing a child learn something and knowing that they worked hard to figure it out is something that most people will not be able to see. That's amazing – watching a kid grow as a person and in their knowledge! At the end of the day, I usually tutor students or give them extra help. At about 4:30 or 5:00, I usually leave the school and head home. At home, I either grade paper, enjoy some free time, go horseback riding, or write in my travel blog.
"What is your favorite (favourite) historic location or destination?"
My absolute favorite historic location would have to be the Oregon Trail in Baker City, Oregon. I have loved the Oregon Trail since I was in 3rd grade. I read a book about it in school and became obsessed. The Oregon Trail is amazingly preserved in Baker City and in many places across the United States. Seeing the trail still intact even after its not been used in so long is a testimony to the hundreds of thousands of people who took the trail on their journey west.
The best part of your job?
The best part of my job would have to be the fact that I get to build some strong life long bonds with students. I get to influence them and help them, and even though I'm the teacher, they teach me so much, too. Nothing is more rewarding than a student from years ago messaging or mailing me just to check in and see how I am or to update me on their new degree or job. I love that part of my job so much.
What is the worst part of your job?
My job is not bad at all, but it is very demanding emotionally so that would be the hardest part. It is painful to watch children make poor choices as unfortunately some of them do.
What history place is on your to do list?
There are so many historic locations on my bucket list / to do list. I have done most of the historic locations in the United States, but I have a ton in Europe that I'd like to do. I think nearly every major castle or battlefield in Europe is on my list. My list is pretty long! I would also love to explore Egypt and see the pyramids and tombs. Petra, Jordan has always been a dream of mine as well.
Is there history places that you recommend or think are important that we should learn about?
I think there are some pivotal historic places that should be taught. I think that before leaving high school, a student should have a firm understanding of the significance of the Palace of Versailles, Ancient Rome and Greece, Ancient Egypt, and Istanbul. Places like Normandy should not be ignored, nor should Holocaust locations like Aucshwhitz.
Whats your next big project?
I just recently finished a manuscript for a novel and I hope that soon it will be published. My next big project, after I seek publishing with this novel, is to write another book. I just started this one a few days ago and I'm interested to see where it takes me.
What advice do you give to anyone wanting to become a History Teacher?
If you want to become a history teacher, and you want to be good at it, then learn how to teach without simply lecturing. Kids love activities, even high schoolers, and thrive when they're being challenged within a reasonable level to do things and learn things that interest them. They are interested when they are doing, not just listening to the teacher lecture. Lecture is OK sometimes, but often, a kid will learn more from a mixture of lecture, activity, and repetition.
Any last words
For anyone pursuing any dream — whether that dream is to be a full time travel blogger, a teacher, a professional golfer, an author, or whatever it is that you want more than anything: Don't ever give up or be afraid to try something. Be smart, be wise, and make good decisions, but be willing to take risks to achieve your goals. But, I must say it again…Never give up!

IT was another disappointing afternoon in National Three North for New Brighton as they lost for the third time to Darlington.
It finished 34-15 at Hartsfield despite the Blues looking the stronger side during the initial stages.
Juan Schoemann, making his home debut, scored a fine interception try for Brighton. Stephen Dean converted and added a penalty before half-time but then the home side had to wait until the dying minutes for Alan Hesketh to breach the visiting rearguard. Darlington hit back with five tries.
Birkenhead Park took a thrilling North One derby at Caldy 26-25. Everything hinged on a last ditch conversion by Alex Davies which just crept over from wide.
Davies also kicked an earlier goal and four penalties with the Park tries credited to Christian Saverimutto and Greg Hughes.
Caldy achieved touch downs via Matt Holt, John Bagley and Jack Parker.
Chester were happy with a 32-8 success at Whitchurch where they quickly assumed control after conceding an early penalty. Russ Meadows, Matt Bebbington, Matt Bellamy, Jim Lyle and Sean Green breached the home rear-guard and Bebbington hit two conversions and a penalty.
Widnes produced an improved display in North Two West but still went down 29-19 at Lymm. Matt Buckle and Paul Borg went in. There was also a penalty try plus two goals from Phil Glover.
Wirral took the South Lancashire/Cheshire One derby against Hoylake 14-8. Dan Harvey added the extras after tries by Ali Baker and Martin Hodson. Ben Flint went in for the losers.
Oldershaw gained an important 12-9 success at the expense of Vagabonds thanks to tries from Mike Chapman and Ed McCullough plus a John Jones conversion.
Anselmians came away 17-10 to the good from Sandbach. Andy Clarke was credited with both tries and Chris Wells hit the conversions plus a penalty.
Leigh returned to winning ways 16-5 with an excellent display against leaders Wilmslow. It was not so good for Warrington who lost 27-16 at home to Northwich and Aspull who fell 29-8 at Broughton Park.
Paul Lewis converted a Greg McDonald try and added two penalties for Wallasey in a 38-13 Division Two defeat at Ormskirk.
St Edwards rallied with second-half tries via Ben Blackwell and Andrew Kelly at Orrell Anvils but went down 25-10. Wigan finished 29-12 to the good over Manchester Wanderers.
Division Three leaders Sefton took the derby against Collegiate 20-6. Phil Evans secured a try, two conversions and two penalties. Wayne Osborne also went in while Simon Watt hit a brace of penalties for the losers.
Parkonians had several tries disallowed as they were edged out 18-17 at Marple. Mossley Hill finished 38-17 to the good against Salians but Ellesmere Port were on the wrong side of a 32-10 result at Douglas.
In Division Four, Prenton made it 13 wins from 13 outings. Capen-hurst were the latest victims 35-7.
St Mary's beat Merseyside Police 30-7 but West Park Warriors fell 46-3 to Holmes Chapel.
Lack of an official referee meant the Port Sunlight v Christleton match had to be turned into a friendly taken by Sunlight 20-12.

A fletching table is a decorative block which currently serves no utility function. According to Mojang, it will serve a purpose later on in a future time.
A fletching table may generate inside a fletcher building in a village, as long as the village generated after the release of upcoming update 1.14. If a village has a fletching table but no fletcher, any nearby villager without a profession (not a nitwit) has a chance to become a fletcher. Fletching tables can also be used as fuel for smelting in furnaces, blast furnaces, and smokers.
In Minecraft: Bedrock Edition (as of Beta 1.9), a fletching table can be crafted by combining 4 of any wood planks with 2 flint on top.

- Managing unwanted facial hair is a big challenge. Although there are several hair removal methods available, they offer only temporary solutions. Seems a familiar problem right! Here is a high-tech hair removal service that will give you long-lasting satisfaction. Read on to know more.
Facial hair growth on the upper lip, chin and sideburns are highly undesirable. Most women remove facial hair by waxing, threading, tweezing, or shaving at home or the salon regularly. Grooming is now a part of personal hygiene routine and managing facial hair growth is of utmost importance even for men. Opting for harsh yet temporary hair removal fixes is a constant concern for all.
These temporary hair removal options require investing time and money week after week. Laser facial hair removal is an advanced, more practical and effective method of permanent hair reduction without causing any adverse effects on the skin.
Why Is Laser Technology Used For Facial Hair Removal?
Laser facial hair removal is an innovative treatment using advanced technology. A certified dermatologist performs it by following set protocols. The initial consultation involves a thorough analysis of your skin and hair so that the doctor can suggest the most suitable type of laser treatment and number of sessions you need. She may ask for some medical investigation if necessary to know the cause behind unwanted hair in females. Following the instructions ensures that you get the best results from the treatment.
How Does Laser Remove Hair On The Face?
The laser technology is revolutionary, and it has gained popularity for being the most successful and scientifically proven treatment method for facial hair removal. During the procedure, a concentrated beam of light is targeted on the concerned area. The high-intensity light falls on the hair follicle, and the melanin pigment present in the hair absorbs it. Melanin transmits this laser energy to the entire hair shaft including stem cells, and it destroys them to inhibit future hair growth.

What Are The Benefits Of Using Laser For Removing Facial Hair?
If you are wondering why laser is the best treatment method for facial hair removal, go ahead and check out its benefits –
- Safe and effective – Laser hair removal is considered 100% safe procedure for delicate facial skin and adheres to all the safety standards approved by the US It is an effective and non-invasive method of hair removal and gives visible results after a few sessions. It does not cause bumps, ingrown hair, the roughness of skin or pigmentation unlike temporary methods like threading or waxing.
- Precise – Laser beam used for facial hair removal is precise and targets the desired area without affecting the surrounding skin. A dermatologist can use it precisely to remove hair on even the smallest areas of the body such as the nose or upper lip area without harming the skin.
- Affordable – Laser is an affordable treatment option that you should consider over temporary hair removal methods. Instead of spending on temporary fixes for a lifetime, laser facial hair removal stands out as value for money spent in comparison.
- Painless and quick – Laser is a relatively painless procedure, unlike other temporary hair removal methods such as waxing or tweezing. It can be performed as a quick lunchtime procedure within 20-25 minutes for an area like the upper lip.
What Are The Popular Packages For Laser Facial Hair Removal?
Various skin clinics offer laser facial hair removal packages based on different treatment areas. To achieve perfect hair-free skin, one can pick from the following treatment areas depending on the distribution of hair–
- Full face package – Includes areas such as upper lip, chin, nose, sideburns, cheek, forehead, jawline, above and between eyebrows.
- Face and neck package – Includes full face along with front and back of the neck.
When Can The Results Be Visible?
The procedure has no downtime and results are quick. After every successful session, regrowing hair gets thinner and reduces as the treatment progresses. Although the results may vary from person to person, generally after 6 to 8 sessions, complete reduction in facial hair growth is visible.
What Are The Risks Involved?
Fortunately, there are no risks involved in this laser procedure. Some clients may get a feel of hot stone massage or may feel slight warmth due to the heat from lasers. The process is pain-free, and a dermatologist will use a numbing gel to minimise the discomfort (if any). You may experience some minor after-effects such as redness or swelling, but that will subside within a few minutes to an hour.
Now, you know all about laser treatment for facial hair! If you are experiencing unwanted hair growth on your face, why wait? Go ahead and book an appointment at your nearest Oliva Skin & Hair Clinic to avail world-class services.
Things To Know Before Opting For Laser Hair Removal:
Are you planning to go for a laser hair removal procedure on the face? It may be the best method of hair removal yet there are things you need to know before going ahead with it.
According to the dermatologists, here are a few things you need to consider before going for laser facial hair removal to achieve the best results–
- Is laser hair removal suitable for all skin types?
A dermatologist will be able to decide the best technology available for laser facial hair removal and the number of sessions you need based on your skin type and sensitivity to the sun.
- Does it work equally well for men and women?
Both men and women can go for laser facial hair removal and get the best results. Every individual responds differently to laser treatment so the results will vary accordingly.
- What is the duration of the laser hair removal treatment on the face?
The average duration of a laser procedure can vary between 15 minutes and an hour depending upon the size of the target area. Laser hair removal on the upper lip area is a lunchtime procedure that barely takes 20 to 25 minutes.
- What is the efficacy of laser hair removal treatment for the face?
The laser treatment is highly effective in reducing facial hair growth permanently, and it delivers visible results as the sessions advance.

The following Position Papers have been developed by the IEA Solar Heating and Cooling Programme:
The purpose of this paper is to illustrate the relevance and importance of standardization and certification in the field of solar thermal products – and to show the benefits of harmonizing standardization and certification at the international level.
Daylight plays a key role in providing a good visual, biologically effective and energy efficient lighting of indoor spaces. Generally, daylight is the light source preferred by humans. Daylight is the major source of regenerative energy for reducing lighting energy consumption. Electric lighting accounts for approximately 15% of the total electrical power consumption and 5% of greenhouse gas worldwide. In nonresidential construction, daylighting – based on distinct evaluation procedures and integrated into diverse energy saving ordinances – has meanwhile become an energy-quantifiable and plannable light source that can be directly offset against the energy requirements for electrical lighting.
The purpose of this paper is to provide relevant information to energy policymakers so that they can understand why and how solar cooling and air-conditioning (SAC) systems should be supported and promoted. It presents state of the art solar thermal and photovoltaic supported solar heating and cooling systems. In addition, it provides a comprehensive summary of the main findings as provided by the IEA SHC Task 53 work .

"In this article, I'm going to be dealing in hard facts, coupled with a little bit of conjecture and speculation as to the future of mobile computing in 2006. When we look back on 2005 we can see it as primarily a year of transition. Since the debut of Intel's Centrino platform, coupled with ATI's release of the Mobility Radeon 9600, notebooks have been maturing as a competitive computing platform at an alarming rate. While I don't really think 2005 will be remembered necessarily as a banner year in new technologies, I think it was a strong transitional period. Mobile technology is maturing at an alarming rate; in 2006, we're going to see some major milestones."

…those nice big hard drives coming down the pipe soon.
The rest just isn't all that interesting to me because I tend to want anything I buy to be capable of supporting multiple operating systems so as to avoid lockin. The majority of laptops with good graphics seem to come with ATI chips and those are practically worthless. I had an old HP Omnibook 6100 complete with 'Designed for Windows XP' sticker that absolutely broke when updated to Service Pack 2 because ATI claimed the driver responsibility was HP's and HP said it was up to ATI to support their chipset. Which basically meant I could either stay with WinXPSP1 and use the OEM provided Windows 2000 drivers (yes you read right…looking at the infs made it clear these were noting more than hacked drivers for W2K) which only worked with XP up to SP1 or move to SP2 and accept the lousy performance from the Windows Compatibility' drivers.
Linux? I could never get ATI's drivers to work. I've yet to have an issue with nVidia drivers on all three of my nVidia cards. So the new wonder ATI video chipsets that spank all the nVidia chipsets don't exactly fill me with joy.
The same goes for most of the rest of these new Notebook Technologies. THe faster processors mean inevitably I'll have worse and worse battery life. In fact the author of the article denigrates battery life and insists that having the fastest or CPU with the most cores most bits is the primary factor when it comes to CPUs!
I won't be interested in the new Intel Macs until they've gone through quite a bit more revision and I've seen some evidence as to how Apple plans to use their newly enabled DRM capabilities.
Windows Visa? You're joking right? This is the D.igitally U.nusable M.edia Operating system right? The reviewer himself says so. Not to mention the OS will come with DUM hardware to ensure that you can do even less with your media than you were able to before. Heck for all we know with Visa's hardware requirements being what they are it may very well turn out to be either impossible to install a different OS on these (including older versions of Windows) but it might work out to be a violation of the DMCA to even try!

In the early stages of my career, as a new manager and leader, I went through many training and development programmes. Of course, they covered all of the so-called "soft skills" as well as the more rational skills required to manage (Forecasting, Planning, Organising, Controlling). Importantly, they also included how to "do improvement". The latter includes knowing how to structure and define problems, how to manage and improve processes, and how to collect, analyse, interpret and present data.
It seems to me that, all too often, leadership and management development programmes these days ignore the skills required to "do improvement".
100% of an organisation's performance is a result of how well its people design, operate and continuously improve its processes. If anyone knows another way to improve performance other than by engaging people in improving processes, please let me know. We can then write a book and make our fortune!
In the absence of that particular magic bullet, people (and leaders in particular) need to know how to "do improvement".
I do acknowledge that many organisations have been "doing" Lean or 6-Sigma (or any re-badged combination you care to think of). However, these often seem to end up as initiatives that senior managers tell middle management to do to the shop/office floor staff.
Over the past couple of years, I have had the opportunity to design and facilitate sessions on improvement skills as part of wider leadership development programmes. They usually include a combination of three themes:
- The processes needed for doing improvement
- Problem-solving
- Process improvement
- Benchmarking
- Change management
- The tools to use within these processes
- Problem/opportunity definition and structuring
- Data gathering and analysis
- Creative thinking
- Solution generation and testing
- The leadership behaviours required to create the climate for improvement and to sustain it
- Questioning and listening
- Coaching and mentoring
- Team-building and leading
- Facilitation
The sessions are very practical, often using action learning approaches and case studies to allow participants to explore how all this "improvement stuff" can be applied in their team. The focus is on enabling them to apply the learning to their immediate workplace challenges.
I don't want to downplay the importance of all the other elements of these leadership programmes; rather, I'd like to remind you that you can have all the "soft" leadership skills in the world but if you don't know how to "do improvement", you won't get very far.
Of course, I am slightly biased because my experience as a manager and leader had a firm foundation of improvement skills which I used to improve customer service, reduce costs and increase staff engagement.

7. Past repair history if applicable-Had 2 thrown rod bearings when I bought this vehicle. Wasn't running, so I don't know how it performed before rebuild.

All parts I replaced and are new: starter, battery, alternator, belt, tpi sensor, oil pump, transmission filter, air filter, distributor cap with rotor, plugs, wires, oil filter, pulley tensioner, AC clutch. After rebuild, check engine light was on. Code read Throttle position sensor. I replaced it and still the check engine light came back on after reset. Ran fine until pulley tensioner messed up and burned up the alternator and starter. I replaced both. Check engine light stayed on and it gives me a code 43. Ran rough, surged during idle in any gear, and died when slowing to a stop (hot or cold, it would die). I found a loose connection to the knock sensor and fixed it, making it run much better. Code is giving me "esc (electronic spark control) module". I can't find this module or a picture of it anywhere. Does anyone know where I can locate this sensor on my specific vehicle. Chilton was no help! I also need a picture of specific module. It is not on the firewall above the distributor or around it. Also, highway driving calculates to 10.8MPG. Is this right for this vehicle or should it be more? Any way to improve this? Any other suggestions would be appreciated? Thanks.

Amid widespread condemnation over the one-day ban imposed on NDTV India, the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting (I&B) on Monday decided to put on hold its order against the prominent Hindi channel, after the broadcaster requested that the decision be reviewed.
Officials said that the decision has been put on hold till the time the appeal is disposed of.
According to officials sources, NDTV co-chairman Prannoy Roy on Monday met information and broadcasting minister M Venkaiah Naidu and discussed the issue related to the order.
Sources said that Roy, while referring to the decision of the inter-ministerial committee imposing the penalty, contended that the perspective of NDTV in this regard "was perhaps not fully and adequately appreciated".
"Roy sought a review of the decision and said that till such time the order should be put on hold," a senior official said.
Officials said that Naidu agreed to the request and the ministry will review the decision and till that time the order has been put on hold.
The decision comes after the Supreme Court agreed to hear NDTV's appeal tomorrow against the ban.
NDTV India was last week ordered to stop broadcasting for 24 hours (Wednesday) with the government accusing it of broadcasting sensitive details of January's terror attack on the air force base in Pathankot.
NDTV has refuted the allegations and pointed out that other channels and newspapers reported the same information.
Naidu had countered that the ban is "in the interest of the country's security" and that the barrage of criticism confronted by the government appears "politically inspired".
This is the first ever such order against a TV channel over its coverage of a terror attack, the norms regarding which were notified in 2015. The Editors' Guild has condemned the ban and demanded that the decision be withdrawn immediately, saying it was reminiscent of the emergency period.
"The ostensible reason for the order as reported is that the channel's coverage of Pathankot terror attack on January 2, 2016 that the government claims gave out sensitive information to the handlers of terrorists. NDTV, in its response to a show cause by the government, has maintained that its coverage was sober and did not carry any information that had not been covered by the rest of the media, and was in the public domain," the statement read.
It added that the decision to take the channel off air for a day was a violation of the freedom of media.

By: Dustin Fife, Outreach and Patron Services Librarian for Utah Valley University Library and Utah Library Association President
"Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly." – Robert F. Kennedy
February 19, 2016 will be all about failure, and that is a good thing. We are going to talk about failure, we are going to look inwards and outwards, and we are going to work on individually and institutionally accepting risk as part of the process. Over the next few weeks, several of the organizers of Strikethrough will be sharing their thoughts about failure and why you should attend this upcoming ULA workshop. Strikethrough will feature Maureen Sullivan as the keynote speaker, along with many other compelling voices to help everyone evaluate the way they incorporate failure and risk into their lives and institutions. You can learn more about the workshop and register here.
There are many reasons that this topic is important to me and many reasons I want you to attend the workshop. But let's start at the beginning, something I think everyone can understand, personal insecurity!
I'm helping organize the event. We've all set a date before, planned every last detail, prepared all that we can, and still woken in the middle of the night afraid that no one will attend an upcoming event. Usually this is not life or death, but regardless, you still want people to attend because by trying something you have exposed yourself. You have made yourself vulnerable. I have personally invested in this project. ULA and The City Library are spending money, bringing in speakers, and using many volunteer hours to make this happen. It is always scary to plan an event. I am always scared that no one is going to show up, whether it is for storytime or a lecture.
Earlier this year, with my amazing friends and colleagues Jessica Breiman and Rebekah Cummings, I helped organize a Wikipedia-edit-a-thon. We put a significant amount of energy into this event, and sadly, very few people came. You know why no one came? Because I forgot to check an events calendar. The edit-a-thon coincided with a nationally-televised football game. There was no parking, the campus was basically shutdown, and no one wanted to stick around to learn about Wikipedia. Huge oversight on my part. But that is how it goes when you are planning events, you cannot catch everything, but you should definitely check relevant events calendars.
More importantly though, this is truly an important topic. I love the quote at the beginning of this article. If you do nothing, it is unlikely that something good will happen. Some people believe that if you do nothing, nothing bad can happen either, but that just is not true. No matter what you do personally or institutionally, life moves on. Talking about failure is not an exercise in commiseration, but an opportunity to shape movement. As individuals and libraries, we have to move forward. Sometimes we move two steps forward and ten steps backwards, but that effort of will, of risk, of making ourselves vulnerable is important. That is when we learn the most. That is when we grow the most. C.S. Lewis says it well, "Failures are finger posts on the road to achievement."
I care about libraries and library employees. If you know me, you know I love libraries. I love the principles of librarianship, I love the traditional goals of librarianship, and I love the many different ways we have attempted to engender those principles and accomplish those goals. Libraries are important. Library employees serve an essential societal role. This is important to me because there is so much more that libraries can do. It will take leadership from the top and bottom to keep libraries moving forward, and this is one of the most important conversations for making sure we are always on the move. The joy is in the journey.
Come to Strikethrough, join this important conversation, which I'm sure many of you are already having, and take it back to your libraries and lives.
"When you take risks you learn that there will be times when you succeed and there will be times when you fail, and both are equally important." – Ellen DeGeneres

Our hearts swell with gratitude. You are back after all these millennia of lies of separation. You are our divinity — an essence, not an entity — inspired by Infinity. Your pure Presence makes the cake complete: Gift of the Feminine in ALL of us, no matter where on the spectrum people identify.
Roses for the Rose
copyrights Rose Healing Art Photography & English original poem (c) Tanya von Zychlinsky
into German "Rosen für die Rose" by same author
Roses for the Rose
Doves for the White Dove
You are the Feminine
That we've been dreaming of
You are mother, lover, woman
Female aspect in all men
You are the one, Beloved,
Holy as Love can
You are sacred as the muses
Are poetry and art
Your voice is what we long for
You are the Divine Heart
You're not just in one body
All of us you represent
Men of all religions
Will feel you and repent
The hard ones can start crying
The cool ones will warm up
When Love is poured into all hearts
Out of your Sacred Cup
You are this blessed energy
Are what was lost so long
With you in formation we're safe:
Your faith and love will make us strong
Please, dear one, Beloved,
You are our treasured gift:
Finally, you have emerged
So consciousness did shift.
Let go of what they said before
when trust and truth were twisted
You are now back for evermore
You have us all enlisted
Self-inflicted suffering
Now, they have paid their dues
As Rose on Roses you will walk
To lift from us the blues
We're home in You, beloved Softness
Sweet nectar flows into each heart
We could have had it all along
Inside us, from the very start
Roses for the Rose
Doves for the White Dove
You are the Feminine
That we've been dreaming of
Our hearts are now swelling
With a giant grin of gratitude
In your luxurious dwelling
We celebrate our magnitude
And so Love is
Love is here for all of us.
I am just another aspect of You
delivering messages for your inspiration and guidance
poetic higher power and waves of LOVE in formation
with all my art

I just read this to my students yesterday for the first time. Little did I know there was a song that goes along with it and they seemed to know what the arrow meant before I did! I'm always learning from my ASD kiddos! Thank YOU guys for making my life so easy!
Thanks for this resource!
I easily downloaded the information and was able to use it the next day. My Pre K kids loved it!
I loved this when I viewed it online. I was disappointed in the ability to print the booklet. The booklet was okay but the accompanied pieces( questions, setting, etc) did not print appropriately.
The books are perfect for my students. They love them because they can follow along easily and if they are learning to read they can red the pictures easily as well. Also, I love that they are easy to make and the comprehension questions at the end of the book are amazing!

Choose the right custom management essay writing service to get help with academic assignments
As a management student, the first thing you should learn is how to manage your own time. Having a lot of writing tasks due soon is a routine situation, but there are very few students who have never had trouble with completing all of them on time. Even if you don't procrastinate, chances are you won't be able to turn in your assignment before the deadline because you might have set your priorities wrong and spent a whole day writing something you could've done later.
Time-management is a skill that comes with experience, but what if your paper is due in a week, and there's no time to work on it? When your academic success is at stake, the only safe way to get everything done on time is to buy management essay from a reliable online writing service.
Reasons to buy management essay
Buy a custom management essay if you lack time. There are so many things that can become an obstacle in your way, so let's not delve into this. Using a management essay writing service is the way to go if you have to work on several essays at the same time. Leave one of your assignments to an expert writer while you concentrate on more important things. Moreover, you can ask a content specialist to do a certain part of your assignment—for example, research or editing.
Buy an essay if you lack ideas. There are times when your topic does not seem very exciting, so you have no idea what you should write about. Another reason for this may be that the topic is too complicated, and you don't know if you've chosen the right sources. Get an original paper from a custom management essay writing service, add the finishing touches to it, use fragments from it in your own paper, or use it for inspiration—it's up to you to decide.
Buy it if you need a quality sample. To write a solid paper, you need to know how a perfect essay looks like in terms of structure, content, and formatting. You can easily find a free sample paper online, but there is no guarantee it was completed by an experienced writer. Buy a sample paper from a management essay writing service to get it tailored to your needs. It is always better to spend money on a decent sample if you know it'll come in handy every time you need to write a paper of a certain type.
Who will write my management essay?
"Getting help with my paper from a custom writing service seems like a great option to me, but who exactly will write my management essay?" This is probably the most common question which comes to your head after reading all the benefits you can get from using academic help. In our opinion, the best content specialist you can find:
- An expert in at least one area. Such a writer knows all the aspects of management inside out, but can also write a paper in business studies or marketing.
- Has versatile skills. A dissertation, a thesis chapter, or a college term paper—an ideal specialist should be ready to cope with any of these.
- Understands your requirements. Apart from having skills and experience, a writer has to understand what exactly you need and to be able to ask the right questions to find it out.
What's the best service for you?
Most of the time, there is no universal answer. If you're looking for services that provide management essay writing help, a good idea is to read reviews, where you can find services of all kinds: top-ranked, cheap, and specialized in certain disciplines. Also, you can give us a try. We write papers for students from the UK and we might be the service you are looking for.

Hugo has been detained at Broward Transitional Center since June 21, away form his son and fiancee. Hugo was on his way to work and was the passenger in a car when the driver was pulled over for passing a yellow light. Hugo was racially profiled and was asked for his "papers." Even though he was only the passenger of the car, he was still arrested and now faces deportation.Hugo is a low priority case and should be released immediately. For every day Hugo is detained, tax payers spend $166. Now, tax payers have spent over $5,000 keeping a father detained. Why?TAKE ACTION - MAKE A CALL: Call ICE – John Morton @ 202.732.3000 Sample Script: "I am calling to ask that you release Hugo Villegas Castro (A# 200 139 842) from Broward Transitional Center in Florida.Hugo fled Mexico to escape extreme violence and fears going back. He was a victim of racial profiling and could now be separated from his son and U.S. citizen fiancee. Hugo is a low-priority case and needs to be released immediately."
* Required information
To Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security, John Morton; and Secretary of Homeland Security, Janet Napolitano:
I am writing to call for the immediate release of Hugo Villegas Castro (A# 200 139 842) from Broward Transitional Center in Florida and urge that you take immediate action to stop his deportation.
On June 21st, 2012, Hugo was sitting in the passenger seat of a car on his way to work when his friend drove through a yellow light. A police officer pulled the car over and questioned both the driver and Hugo. The driver, who was a U.S. citizen, was released, but seeing Hugo in the car, the police officer racially profiled him and inquired about his immigration status. Although Hugo was just a passenger in the car and had done nothing, the officer took Hugo into custody and later sent him to Broward Transitional Center where he has been since June 21st, 2012.
Hugo arrived in the United States in 2005. He fled Mexico to escape extreme violence and to be able to provide for his twelve-year-old son. For the past seven years, Hugo has worked as a landscaper and has been a law-abiding tax-payer. He is engaged to a U.S. citizen, whom he helps support, and hopes to marry her soon. While Hugo has a chance of adjusting his status through an I-130 petition, it is unjust to detain him and keep him away his family.
Although Hugo has paid thousands of dollars in taxes to Florida annually, tax-payers are currently spending $166 for every day Hugo spends in detention. After a month of being detained for nothing more than being a passenger in a car, tax-payers have now spent $5,000 keeping Hugo in detention. According to the memo issued by John Morton, Hugo is a low-priority case and should be granted favorable exercise of prosecutorial discretion. He has no criminal record and instead is the victim of racial profiling. Hugo escaped a great deal of violence in Mexico and fears going back.
I urge you to release Hugo Villegas Castro from Broward Transitional Center and call on ICE to stop his deportation.

The opposite is that relying in your circulate, the heater might heat up the water in the overflow quicker than it could possibly circulate out and heat the remainder of your aquarium. With a new heater or when refilling an aquarium after a water change, we recommend inserting the heater beneath/under the minimal water line no less than 10 minutes previous to plugging within the Marine Aquarium Heater The water led temperature show lets you understand at which temperature the heater is operating. The system should be capable of be assembled in lower than 16 hours (2 days) by a talented maker with all necessary components, meeting tools, assembly guides, and full downloadable controller applications. Understand that any fish in your aquarium cannot keep their very own physique heat.
Like the coral sand, the aragonite may also help in adjusting the ph value and the water hardness within the aquarium. Establishing the moist-dry filter ought to be performed at the identical time the aquarium is initially arrange, as a result of it takes about one month for it to begin working successfully. We like this information on cycling with fish and this guide on fishless biking but whichever methodology you choose will set your tank up for fulfillment and ensure that your fish do not kill themselves with their pee. Sustaining the suitable temperature is one of the most important factors in an aquarium. Learn how to care for a tropical fish tank the easy way with these 6 aquarium maintenance ideas.

Though it's made for smaller tanks, new aquarium enthusiasts can get pleasure from a place-it and neglect-it mindset with this heater. Filter heaters decrease the amount of extra equipment wanted contained in the aquarium. I've witnessed titanium heaters (of different manufacturers) over heat and burn out when utilized in small sumps or heater modules. Remember to check the temperature regularly, daily if doable, to ensure the heater is doing its job.To combine a batch of artificial sea water: in a separate container, add water (the water used could be faucet water because we're not establishing a reef aquarium), and add conditioner/dechlorinator (usually a very small amount, see product directions); an instance product is: seachem prime.
Many pet fish study to acknowledge their house owners and can reply by coming over to you if you approach the aquarium. You can get the immersible heater, submersible, in-filter, in-line, in-sump and substrate aquarium heaters.

It is created from crushed corals, this is normally white with a various grain size as nicely. Another preset aquarium heaters claim that are set to the correct temperature t the manufacturing facility and need no adjustment.
Inside a typical aquarium is a miniature ecosystem with many variables and elements that should work in live performance and stay in balance. It is of utmost significance to examine your heater once every two weeks and to verify the water temperature of the tank daily. Aquarium lights come in quite a lot of bulb varieties, including fluorescent, incandescent, and, more just lately, led. You need to take proper duty and take care of the fishes and the plants in the aquarium. Any canister pump will develop into toxic to the aquarium if the ability fails for more than about six hours (relying upon how dirty it's). Aqueon pro aquarium heaters feature an enormous, simple to regulate knob on top with a clear temperature setting indicator. The biological load, or bioload, is a measure of the burden positioned on the aquarium ecosystem by its inhabitants.
Cautious selection and placement of lighting and pumps can help prevent problems. Parasites increase when new fish are added, when there's a sudden stress corresponding to low temperature from a heater failure, or when there may be persistent downside like low oxygen or low ph and high nitrate. Most residential dishwashing machines , for instance, embody an inner electric heating element for increasing the water temperature above that offered by a domestic water heater. The aim aquarium filtration is to supply high water quality on your fish and hold the water clear and free of any debris. I'm on a restricted price range (unemployed), so i'm not in the position to buy an expensive inline spa water heater or anything else in the identical price range. Unplug your fish aquarium heater and let it cool for no less than half-hour earlier than removing it from the aquarium. It's important before you undertake maintaining an aquarium that you just understand the fundamentals in fish aquarium upkeep.

Matt Haig is an impressive writer. His novels The Dead Fathers Club and The Possession of Mr. Cave havebeen reviewed positively in Metapsychology, as was his more recent memoir Reasons to Stay Alive. He addresses big questions in approachable ways. In How to Stop Time, he raises the question of whether we would want to be able to live a lot longer -- up to 1000 years, and shows some of the difficulties this would bring. The narrator of his story, Tom Hazard, was born in 1581, and he still looks like he is in his early 40s. He is resistant to disease, having lived through the Great Plague of London in 1665 and many other epidemics. But he is vulnerable to human violence, which is one of his main fears. People are hostile to those who are different, suspecting them of making bargains with supernatural forces. When he was a boy living with his mother in England, the locals accused her of witchcraft, and she was killed. From then on, Tom found that he has to move on from wherever he lives after several years because people notice that he is not aging, and they threaten him and those he associates with. So he moves from town to town, and country to country. He has lived all over the world, but he can't form attachments.
Tom is not the only one who defies death. There are many people with this ability, and they have formed a group, the Albatross Society, which serves to protect them. The group is run by one of the oldest of them, Hendrich, and he advises that they move on every eight years, and that they never fall in love. Now Tom has moved back to London, and has taken up a job at a school teaching history. He is at risk of giving his secret away because he keeps on telling the students about the London of his past, mentioning details that only he knew. He is also forming a connection with one of the other teachers at the school, and is at risk of getting too close to her.
So there are elements of conventional romance in the story, and there's some fun had with Tom meeting famous people. He is even a musician in Shakespeare's theatre. These elements of the novel balance the more serious themes of human intolerance, desperation and suicide. The story quickly moves around in time and place from the present to various parts of Tom's past life, and each episode is short, making the book an easy read. As with Haig's other novels, it would suit readers of many varieties, and could especially appeal to a young adult audience who enjoy engaging with life's deeper puzzles.

On 26 June 2018, Air Belgium's third Airbus A340 has been entered in the Belgian register as OO-ABE, a notable user of our forum noticed. The 10-year-old ex-Finnair aircraft was registered OH-LQE and has been stored at Tarbes-Lourdes-Pyrénées Airport since January 2017.
Already in December 2016 the airline planned to add a total of four aircraft to the fleet, the fourth A340 will be registered OO-ABD. Small detail: A-B-D-E, OO-ABC is missing in the list: that registration was previously taken by private jet airline Flying Service (Group) with a Dassault Falcon 7X (until May 2017).
While OO-ABB is connecting Brussels South Charleroi Airport with Hong Kong, sister aircraft OO-ABA today will operate an Air France flight between Paris CDG and Lagos (and back).
