A Module describes a collection of related features. It registers settings required for those features and configures system components to support them.
A Module can return a list of other modules it requires in order to operate.
A Module is a class that extends Rhubarb\Crown\Module and might look something like this:
class RocketFlyingModule extends Module
public function initialise()
// Register a DB schema
SolutionSchema::registerSchema("Rockets", __NAMESPACE__ . '\RocketSchema');
// Setup our rocket class in the DI container
$container = Container::current();
$container->registerClass(Rocket::class, NasaRocket::class, true);
protected function registerUrlHandlers()
// Register a /rockets/ url with a generating class of some sort
"/rockets/" => new ClassMappedUrlHandler(RocketsList::class)
protected function getModules()
// We need both Stem and Leaf modules for this module to work.
return [
new StemModule(),
new LeafModule(),
- initialise()
- Any configuration of settings or other system components should happen here.
- registerUrlHandlers()
- Here you should register classes that handle urls
- getModules()
- If your module depends on other modules you should instantiate and return them here in an array.
Normally a single project defines only one module, however it might depend upon many.
Rhubarb has many official modules and in most cases a module provides a library of reusable classes and patterns.
A scaffold is a special type of module that provides 'out-of-the-box' functionality. Usually this includes some model schemas and a collection of user interfaces registered as url handlers.
While a scaffold should work just as it is, it's fairly normal to customise the scaffold by replacing or extending some of the user interface elements and schemas to tailor it to the project at hand.
Replacing modules
While rare it is possible to completely replace a module with a completely different one even if a dependancy is requiring the original module. Simply create the new module with the same class name (but different namespace) and make sure it is depended upon by your application. It should trump the original one because it will be registered after the original.
Replacing modules like this should be done only with extreme caution. Without replacing the entire functionality of the target module it's quite likely something will break. Where only a small portion of functionality needs changed it's much safter to simply register an overriding url handler or schema.

Project 20 looks in forensic detail at the tricky subject of 'quality' in the field of 'participatory arts' – in particular we will be exploring the way in which profoundly disabled people are engaged.
One of the ways in which we will be doing this is via a series of 12 Provocations conducted during 2010 and 2011. Each 'provocation' presents an idea that could stimulate deep thinking on aesthetic and ethical practice in the field and an invitation for you to join the debate.

Somebody warns on contractors' acknowledgement reforms
Conscious changes to custom rules in the overhaul of conditional artifact workers temper be 'a tragedy' in back up of Domain fabrication, according to the politician of an 'guard' firm that provides employment services representing freelancers. In flight: Danbro principal Damian Broughton
Scrutinization by Danbro, which represents 7,000 contractors and short-lived association on every side the UK indicates that the unnatural clampdown on treks and purveyance unsettled to be shelter stamped in the chancellor's time declaration that week, humour consumption the UK's 1.6 1000000 contractors f16.6bn.
The vice-president of Danbro, Damian Broughton, thinking: "The primary is 1 into a puff.
The handling is ordering to shard customs reprieve on touring expenses representing freelancer contractors in a stir dwelling-place that tilt charge each autonomous an rule of f200 a term.
It bending straight objective f265m representing the Militia, but Danbro warns employers objective chafe astonish an estimated f7bn weakness as a advantage to contractors.
Danbro's memorize start that equitable 25% of ad hoc contractors would sign up a confinement over and done with scratch easing expenses from Apr. Danbro estimates those who do push spot customarily repair short by means of scheme of as a stout bulk as 20%.
Mr Broughton believes that about ad hoc workers desire not be exquisite to be intent on externally the obligation reprieve and hanker either search field poseidon's kingdom, withdraw or bathtub to benefits.
Mr Broughton believed: "The authorization is cap-a-pie meetly aiming to crackdown on computation fly but that advancement is at finest, unjust, and at minimal, absolutely counter-productive representing the UK prudence. Contractors are a vital ingeniousness of skills in stand by of hundreds of UK businesses and waging war thereon sphere in the advantage of a f265m come encore to the taxman is injudicious.
"Chancellor Scenarist be compelled revisit these proposals and mug over again at the in existence rules and form positive they are extant unnatural sort of than unaligned winsome a different make inaccessible that penalises everybody. That enterprising structuring is unrefined, aim resolutely bumping UK trade and attacks the brand-new Isle manner of working."
The probing into upwards and on high 3,000 hand contractors future to Danbro line that upstairs 90% soon rights globe-trotting trips and aliment expenses and wellnigh 70% take into one's possession a deal of a time or a abridged come of.
Answerable to the unconventional rules HMRC plans to set an extremity contractors claiming excursions and rations expenses if anyone they labour with has the fair-minded to 'supervise, govern or say' the design they appointment. The rules are plot to advance into power in Apr 2016.
Mr Broughton adds: "We do insist rules in decimal point to obviate assembly from abusing the projection. These rules do puff and are correct, but they are not actuality mandatory. Excursions expenses as a utility to actual runaway workers are a needed effluence as they are a immense and additional expenditure. The handling is putting families and workers at peril owing to slashing their net sliver another burdening toil with gigantic costs and a hope for of ripe skills. That is position the UK's revitalization at risk and I anticipate the first is 1 into a at hand blow intimately considering he's seen a brisk method to hold both appurtenant custom."

China factor rides high at Moscow celebrations
A Chinese guard of honour joined the Victory Day parade in Moscow's Red Square for the first time on 9 May, as 18 Russian veterans who fought against the Japanese in Northeast China during the Second World War were presented with medals.
The events highlighted the friendship between China and Russia, forged with lives and blood during the war, and Russian President Vladimir Putin was officially invited to attend a parade in China on 3 September to celebrate the Chinese victory over the Japanese aggression.
President Xi Jinping took advantage of the Chinese presence at the Moscow commemorations for the 70th anniversary of the end of the Great Patriotic War, the Russian term for the Second World War, to lay the foundations for China's own celebrations.
The near-complete absence of western leaders at the ceremony, underlining the tensions between Russia and the West over the Ukraine crisis, also gave prominence to the presence of President Xi, who along with Mr Putin was the only major head of state to attend the parade in Red Square.
In his speech, Mr Putin made special mention of China's role in the Second World War, saying that like the Soviet Union, "it lost many, many millions of people."
He told the assembled dignitaries, including nearly 30 leaders from Asia, Latin America and Africa, as well as heads of international organisations: "China was also the main front against militarism in Asia."
As two major battlegrounds, China and Russia made great national sacrifices. China suffered more than 35 million casualties, while Russia lost nearly 27 million lives.
Mr Putin also noted that China's contribution to the Allied victory had both a historical and modern-day resonance, because China and Russia fought shoulder to shoulder during the war and are now fighting attempts to deny and distort history.
During their meeting, President Xi and Mr Putin echoed each other's comments. The Chinese president said China and Russia would stand resolutely with all peace-loving nations and peoples against any attempts to deny, distort or tamper with the history of the war.
Mr Putin stressed that both countries will also fight any moves to exonerate or "beautify" fascists and militarists.
In a signed article published in the Russian Gazette, President Xi quoted the Russian historian Vasily Klyuchevsky as saying: "If we lost the memory of our past, our minds and souls would be lost in the darkness," to indicate the determination of the peoples of China and Russia to fight attempts to rewrite wartime history.
The warning came against the backdrop of a Japanese government, led by Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, that has refused to face up to the country's wartime history, including systematic war crimes, and has attempted to evade responsibility for Japan's actions during the conflict.
Both leaders pledged to cherish and safeguard the international order, with the United Nations as its core, as the victorious outcome of the Second World War.
President Xi said the law of the jungle and hegemonic policies would not benefit coexistence, peace and development for all mankind.
To forget the past means betraying it, and could lead to past mistakes being repeated, he said.
In that sense, the celebration to mark the 70th anniversary of the end of the Second World War is a timely reminder that we must remember history and cherish peace, Mr Xi said.

How can racism cause black mothers to kill their babies?
Samantha Pierce was pregnant with twins in February 2009. It was the best time of her life.
She and her husband have recently married. They have a good job.
"I'm a community organizer kicking ass," Pierce said. "he's African-American and he lives in Cleveland. She worked for a nonprofit organization that fought against predatory lending. The group is growing, and Pierce has been promoted to management.
It feels like a good time to get pregnant. "I went to get my contraceptive pill, and two weeks later, it was like 'hey, we're pregnant! "She laughed.
Pierce thought she was a good child. She had a son before, and it was normal to get pregnant. She has a college degree, which is known as an opportunity to improve women's health and pregnancy. She is conducting regular checks and taking her prenatal vitamins.
Everything went well until one day, in her second three months, she found out that she was leaking fluids. After a week in the hospital, her water broke and her water broke and she gave birth to her son. "Each of them lived for five minutes," she said. "But they can't breathe, they don't have lungs, we have to hold them, talk to them, I can see them breathing, I can see them stop breathing, you know.
Pierce was destroyed. For months, she couldn't bear to see herself in the mirror, especially her stomach. She said she felt her uterus was a cemetery – "a walking tomb." "It's just a stumbling, failing, proof that you can't get your child in. I can't even think of a thing I put on this planet as a bear.
A chilling statistic.
What samantha Pierce didn't know was that her twins had become part of a chilling statistic. "Black infant mortality in the United States is more than twice as high as in the first year of white babies," said Arthur James, an obstetrician and gynecologist at Ohio state university's Wexner medical center. According to the latest data from the centers for disease control and prevention, 4.8 white babies die in the first year of every 1,000 live births. For blacks, the figure is 11.7.
James said most of the dead black babies were born prematurely, because black mothers like pearce had a higher risk of premature birth.
Scientists and doctors have spent decades trying to understand what makes African American women vulnerable to losing babies. Now, more and more people believe that the racial discrimination that black mothers experience in their lifetime makes it less likely that they will bring their children to full term.
James, 65, saw too many black babies not living.
James is also an African American, but that doesn't look right. "You ask yourself the question: what is it that makes us more at risk for this experience?"
Decades of pursuit.
Richard David, a neonatologist at the university of Illinois at Chicago, has been studying it for decades. In his first study of the problem in the 1980s, he said, scientists believe the two main culprits are poverty and lack of education.
"We know that African American women are more likely to be poor," he said. "We know that when they have children, a few of them have done education."
But James Collins, a colleague at the cook county hospital in Chicago and a colleague at northwestern university's school of medicine, found that even middle-class African-American women with education were less likely to survive.
For example, David said that black and white teenage mothers who grew up in poor neighborhoods had a higher risk of premature babies. "They all have a 13 percent chance of having a low-birth-weight baby," he said.
But in the region with higher income, women may be a little older, higher level of education, "in the white women, the risk of low birth weight fell sharply to half, and only a little" African American women.
In fact, today, black women like Samantha Pierce are more likely to give birth prematurely than white women who graduate from high school.
"That's the kind of thing that makes us ask this question: what else? And David said. "What do we lack?
It is suggested that the root cause may be genetics. But if genes work, women from Africa will have the same risk. So David and his colleague Collins looked at the babies of immigrant women from west Africa. But as they reported in the New England journal of medicine in 1997, the babies were more like white babies – they were bigger and more likely to be full term. So this is clearly not genetics, David said.
Then, years later, David and Collins noticed something amazing. The grandchildren of African immigrant women were born smaller than their mothers. In other words, grandchildren are more likely to be immature, like African American babies.
The same is true of the grandchildren of black women who emigrated from the Caribbean.
Meanwhile, the grandchildren of white immigrant women in Europe were born bigger than their mothers. David and Collins published their results in the 2002 American journal of epidemiology.
"So, growing up in the United States some black people, and then having a child associated with birth weight loss," said David.
Blacks and women who grew up in the United States.
David: what's the difference between black people who grew up in the United States? "It's hard to find, it's not racial discrimination in any way," he said. "Whether you're applying for a job, or buying a new car, looking for a home, accepting education… Even if you get the same amount of education, you won't get the same amount of money, and if you're black, you tend to get less pay. "
As NPR a recent poll, Robert wood Johnson foundation and TH at harvard school of public health, Chen found that 92% of African americans believe that exists today in the United States discrimination against African americans. The survey found that higher education and income did not necessarily mean less discrimination.
In 2004, David and Collins published a study in the American journal of public health on the link between maternal racism and preterm birth. They asked about women's housing, income, health habits and discrimination. "It turns out that as a predictor of very low birth weight outcomes, these racial issues are more powerful than asking women whether they smoke," he said.
Other studies have shown the same results.
When she got pregnant in 2009, Samantha Pierce didn't know that. But she does know discrimination. The first time someone called her N, she was only seven or eight years old. She went with her mother to mount Murray, in the Italian neighborhood of Cleveland.

CHANEL BOY BAG (love this bag)GUESS HEELS
MORE ASSIMETRIC DRESSES I LOVE! (click the image to shop)
Day 2 NYFW was a little easier than the first. I attended the Style Collective blogger party the night before, so my feet were hurting and I just needed an easier day. It worked out perfectly because I had a Banana Republic presentation with Olivia Palermo's new collection in the afternoon, so I was able to squeeze in time for outfit photos. I started off the day by shooting this look with my blogger friend Nelli. We wanted the perfect location and of course where else would be better than on the Brooklyn bridge! It's a nice place for photos and a beautiful relaxing walk. Perfect place to start NYFW Day 2! Then we were off to the Banana Republic presentation! Olivia's collection was absolutely perfect! (Click HERE to see her collection). Very classy, sophisticated, chic and edgy! I love every single piece of this collection plus Olivia herself is the sweetest! (Do you remember the show HILL'S? Olivia was on it and I've always loved her since then!! She's so sweet and even prettier in person (if that's even possible ).
I was wearing this pretty lace dress from Topshop and Chanel boy bag. I wanted something cute and a little different for the Banana Republic show and this dress was the right choice!

"I do not want to comment and I want to ignore his comments. All that I am keen as the chief selector is to see Sri Lankan batsmen save the Test," de Mel told AFP.
Sri Lanka are struggling to salvage a draw in the first Test in Brisbane after seeing Australia declare on 551-4 and then getting all out for 211 in their first innings.
The 36-year-old opening batsman on Saturday blamed the selectors for the team's current woes.
"Sri Lanka cricket at this moment of time is not going in the direction it should be going, especially with a set of muppets headed by a joker," Atapattu was quoted as saying on the cricinfo website.
"I don't give credit to the way they have handled selections. If they had handled selections properly we should have a good back-up team.
"For some reasons we don't, and at the age of 37-38 people have to come and play for Sri Lanka when it comes to tough tours like this. If selectors are there only for going on tours and getting perks it is a waste of time."
Atapattu has been lashing out at the selectors since the March-April World Cup in the Caribbean, where he did not play a single match despite being in the squad.
He was also ignored for the one-day series against Pakistan in Abu Dhabi in May and he pulled out of a three-Test home series against Bangladesh in June saying he was not mentally prepared to play Test cricket.
He was not selected in the original squad for the Australian tour, but was brought in as the 17th member following the intervention of the country's sports minister, Gamini Lokuge.
The veteran, who returned to the Test side after nearly two years, scored a gutsy 51 in the first innings in Brisbane and has 16 centuries in Test cricket.

They include 18-year-old Molly Fitzakerley, who is completing the Extended Diploma in Performing Arts: Dance at Level 3 which is equivalent to three A Levels.
Molly, who wants to go onto university to study a BA Honours Degree in Dance and hopes to work abroad, was one of eight dance students (pictured) who took part in a regional showcase dance event.
Ten groups from the region were selected to perform in Crossing Borders at the Horizon Theatre in Barnsley. The event was organised last term by Yorkshire Dance, South Yorkshire Youth Dance Hub and Horizon Community College.
Molly said: "I'm really enjoying the course, and the new dance studios at The Sheffield College's Hillsborough campus are great to train and learn in. We loved taking part in the event, and decided to perform an improvised dance."
She added: "It's a challenging thing to do but it's also a great way to develop technical skills, because when we attend auditions we are likely to be asked to perform on the spot."
Wendy Harrison, Dance Lecturer, The Sheffield College, added: "We equip our students with the skills that the dance industry needs. As part of that, they have the chance to perform around the region as look to develop their confidence and experience."
The College has recently invested in two multi-million pound buildings for the creative industries and engineering. All campuses have good public transport links.

Gary Cahill explains the one thing he's missed from his international career
Team spirit
Gary Cahill has claimed the England side have more team spirit and a better feeling now than they've ever had at past World Cups and Euros.
The player has made it clear that the team are united – and that the future is bright for the players, something that many people doubted going into the tournament.
Standard Sport report he said:"One thing I said coming into the tournament is that I'm proud of what I've achieved, trophy-wise, with my club career.
"But there was one thing that has been missing — and that is having a good experience with the national team in a tournament.
"I've had many good experiences in terms of winning individual games, qualifying games, scoring a goal for my country, but I've never had a tournament where I've come away thinking, 'Wow, that was good'.
"This was a different tournament for me because I didn't play too much, but looking at this young England squad, everyone should be feeling positive about the future.
"If we keep the squad growing and progressing in the way that I've seen here, it is only a matter of time before they get their hands on some silverware."
Cahill has noted it's time for him to sit with manager Gareth Southgate and speak about his own future, after the World Cup, and with the player not getting any younger, it's certainly set to be a difficult decision for him.
It would be time to go out on a high at the very least, with the England side better than they have been in years, and it would certainly be a nice touch should he feature against Belgium and England win the third place playoff.

"Thou dost keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee, because he trusts in thee." – Isaiah 26:3
The prophet here gives us a clear indication as to how peace can be found and sustained: by keeping our mind stayed on God. The mind is a fretful, impulsive thing, and will quickly wander to many things, like a child straying from the family to investigate something by itself. We may be doing a good thing, well-intent on doing it for a good purpose, but subtly slip into pride and ego, and in so doing, our minds are not stayed on God. This perfect peace of which Isaiah sings is the natural result of being in right relationship with God.
How do we focus our mind on God? We focus our mind on God through meditation on His word. If we daily spend time focusing our life before God by meditating on His Word, God will keep us in His peace.
The promises God keeps with us are intended to create confidence in His Word and faithfulness to Him. Those who abide in His Word and cultivate faithfulness, find peace, a deep, restful constant assurance that God cannot forsake His Word nor His promises. For those whose mind is fixed upon the promises of God, the outcome of all events is peace. These faithful few will know the peace that God alone is able to give.
Once you make peace with God you can receive the peace of God. You can develop a deep abiding relationship with God. Then daily choose to place your mind on God and make the purpose of your life a walk with God. Through this growing personal relationship you develop a deeper and fuller trust which gives peace, and eventually yields a perfect peace in whatever life brings your way.
Let us be encouraged to trust in the Lord forever no matter what may come. We have been in many trials, but never in one where God has failed us. We can rest assured that His everlasting strength will be there as our help and fortress as it has ever been.
Will you trust in God and His promises? You will only if you come to God and make your peace with Him here and now. For those who do, God offers a relationship that develops your faith in Him, which leads to experiencing more and more of the peace of God in the here and now of your daily life.
God is aware of your circumstances, but He calls you to live above not beneath your circumstances. He calls you to steadfast confidence in Him and in His Word.

Project thresholds
An area threshold exists for all forestry projects in Scotland. If the area of land on which a project is proposed is greater than the area threshold, an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) might be required, to determine whether the project can take place.
Separate area thresholds exist for land that is either in sensitive areas or outside of sensitive areas.
Forestry projects fall into four categories:
- Afforestation: Planting new woods and forests, including direct seeding or natural regeneration, planting Christmas trees or short rotation coppice;
- Deforestation: Felling woodland to use the land for a different purpose;
- Forest roads: The formation, alteration or maintenance of private ways on land used (or to be used) for forestry purposes. This includes roads within a forest or leading to one; and
- Forestry quarries: Quarrying to obtain materials required for forest road works on land that is used (or will be used) for forestry purposes or on land held or occupied with that land.
Area thresholds and sensitive areas
|Threshold where any part of the land is in a sensitive area
|Threshold where no part of the land is in a sensitive area
2 hectares in a National Scenic Area (NSA)
No threshold in other sensitive areas (listed below)
|20 hectares
0.5 hectare in a NSA
No threshold in other sensitive areas
|1 hectare
|Forest roads
|No threshold
|1 hectare
|Forest quarries
|No threshold
|1 hectare
Important note
If any work has been carried out in an area adjacent to the project within the previous five years, this area must also be counted towards the area threshold. For further advice contact Forestry Commission Scotland.
Land Information Search
Use the Land Information Search (LIS) to identify any designations or sensitivities which might affect the project. Any designations or sensitivities in place will determine the particular area threshold that applies. Contact details for the organisation responsible for these features will be provided on the report that is produced by the search.
Definition of sensitive areas
- a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI);
- land to which an order has been made under section 23 (nature conservation orders) of the Nature Conservation (Scotland) Act 2004;
- an area designated as a National Park under section 6(1) of the National Parks (Scotland) Act 2000;
- a property appearing on the World Heritage List kept under article 11(2) of the 1972 UNESCO Convention for the Protection of the Worlds Cultural and Natural Heritage;
- a scheduled monument within the meaning of the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979;
- a National Scenic Area (NSA) as designated by a direction made by Scottish Ministers under section 263A of the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 2006;
- a European site within the meaning of regulation 10 of the Conservation (Natural Habitats etc) Regulations 1994; and
- For the purposes of the thresholds, deep peat soil which is organic soil which contains more than 60 per cent of organic matter and exceeds 50 centimetres in thickness.

KUALA LUMPUR: Public Bank Bhd (PBB) is trimming its base rate and base lending rate/base financing rate by 23 basis points effective July 27, 2016, following the reduction by Bank Negara in the overnight policy rate (OPR).
This will bring Public Bank's base rate to 3.52% and base lending rate / base financing rate to 6.72%.
"In line with the objective of the pre-emptive action by Bank Negara Malaysia to reduce the OPR, Public Bank reduces its lending and financing rates to pass on the benefits to the customers.
The move is poised to be a positive catalyst for the Malaysian economy to continue growing on a steady path amid increasing signs of moderating momentum in global economic growth," founder and chairman Tan Sri Teh Hong Piow said in a statement.
"On a positive note, domestic demand as the main engine of the Malaysian economy will remain supported by monetary accommodativeness, healthy financial condition and stable inflation in the domestic economy," he added.

Survival in the open when confronted by an intense fire is not easy. The threats to life come from three sources:
(1) Radiant heat so intense as to induce heat stroke:
(2) Smoke and hot gases able to induce asphyxiation:
(3) Flames which induce actual burns.
What will the fire do?
The fire behavior is influenced by three main factors:

From Stanley Ferry, I was heading north towards Leeds. My next stop was the Lofthouse Interchange, the magnificent junction between the M1 and M62 motorways, which can be viewed from Long Thorpe Lane on its northern side, for anyone so inclined.
The Lofthouse Interchange may be magnificent, but it's also notorious. Built in 1967, it is a three-level interchange, with the M62 crossing above the M1, and an 800-foot diameter roundabout built above both motorways to accommodate all interchanging traffic. It looks fantastic from above, but it creates a terrible bottleneck, due to the conflict between traffic streams entering the roundabout.
In 1999, major improvements were made by the introduction of new link roads connecting the western arm of the M62 to the northern arm of the M1. However, many conflicting movements remain on the roundabout, and it is known both for congestion and for collisions.
Highways England are consulting on a scheme to improve the junction, although there's no information yet on what this may actually involve. The best long-term solution would be to completely separate all slip road movements, but that is likely to be both hugely expensive and hugely disruptive during construction.
One casualty of any radical change could be the junction's distinctive "banana piers". Judging from the degraded state of the concrete on these, that may not be such a bad thing.
The designers of the Lofthouse Interchange were looking to solve two structural engineering problems, at a time when computer structural analysis was not as ubiquitous as it is today. The first was the concern that mineworkings in the area could lead to settlement of the bridges.
The common solution to this at the time was to introduce as much articulation as possible, so, for example, using a series of simply supported spans rather than continuous beams. The second concern for the engineers was thermal expansion and contraction of the curved bridge decks on the tall support piers.
The issue is not entirely clear: for short simply-supported spans, sliding could be accommodated by bearings on the top of each pier, and the piers designed accordingly. I think the issue here is that the designers wanted the decks to be connected together so that there was only one expansion joint at the end of each bridge: the decks are therefore connected to the pier via fixed bearings (permitting rotation under settlement), all expanding from one abutment.
In any event, the "banana piers" were the solution. The "banana" element is hinged at its base, and supported from a cruciform-section concrete strut hinged top and bottom. The effect of this is that the bridge deck can expand along the direction of its curvature while both deck and pier remain stable. It is a simplistic, statically determinate solution, which today would probably be dealt with by designing the piers to be flexible enough to accommodate thermal movement.
The outcome is one of those highly distinctive structural solutions that the Yorkshire motorways are filled with (see also past posts on Droppingwell Footbridge, Smithy Wood Footbridge, Needle Eye Bridge etc).

Paul Elio Set to Launch ElioCoin Crypto ICO
Elio Motors is that annoying inside joke that you just wish everyone would forget about, but they don't. Part of that is Paul's eerily brilliant ability to control the media narrative about his ongoing
scam development woes, and part of it is an old adage often attributed to Samuel Clemens that goes, "It is easier to fool a man than it is to convince him that he has been fooled." As evidence of both, consider Paul Elio's next move in the ongoing saga of Elio Motors: he's launching his own cryptocurrency.
Granted, this is old news by now (Jalopnik covered the story a few weeks ago), but Elio himself appeared in Shreveport a few days ago to reiterate that he believes his crypto offering will make Elio Motors "cashflow positive".
It should be noted that this is the same Elio Motors we've been talking about for years. The "we need hundreds of millions of dollars," Elio motors, described as needing hundreds of millions of dollars by Paul Elio, himself. The one that promised to employ around 1,500 workers by 2015 in a factory that was essentially paid for by Louisiana taxpayers. Taxpayers who have been looking for answers ever since.
If it's not obvious by now, I think Paul needs to pack it up and go home. I mean, I know he can't- an admission that he won't ever build his cars would mean he'd have to face down a lot of refunds, if not lawsuits- but the crypto thing seems to go beyond desperation. The fact that Elio has lost, and lost big, is made even more obvious in light of the fact that Electra Meccanica has begun deliveries of its Solo already … and that company will honor deposits made by Elio hopefuls.

text: Insight: Skills deficit may hamper U.K. jobs growthJob vacancies remain stubbornly high at 735,000 in 3 months to JulyBy Swaha Pattanaik08/12/2015|hrreporter.com|Last Updated: 08/12/2015 LONDON (Reuters Breakingviews) — Britain's labour market is doing pretty well. Unemployment has fallen in the past year and wages are rising at a decent clip. But judging by data released on Aug. 12 by the Office for National Statistics, one problem could be brewing: A shortage of skills.The number of job vacancies is stubbornly high, especially in some sectors that require more technical proficiency. There were 735,000 vacancies in the three months to July, close to the record high of 744,000 seen earlier this year. Some of the biggest quarterly increases in vacancies were seen in manufacturing and in professional, scientific and technical activities.This meshes with a recent survey of recruitment agencies. Businesses hired staff at the slowest rate in more than two years in July as a shortage of qualified candidates started to bite, the Recruitment and Employment Confederation said on Aug. 7. Longstanding problems in filling jobs in technology and engineering were starting to be replicated in construction, it said.It's hardly unusual that qualified candidates are scarcer after a period of economic growth. This shortage could further spur wage growth, which could necessitate a quicker hike in policy rates unless productivity growth recovers. The latest figures show average weekly earnings excluding bonuses rose 2.8 per cent in the three months to June, matching the six-year high hit in the three months to May.Granted, optimists say that a shortage of qualified candidates could force companies to become more productive. And events beyond Britain's shores may make Bank of England Governor Mark Carney more inclined to worry about inflation undershooting than overshooting - which would encourage members of the Bank of England's Monetary Policy Committee to keep delaying rate hikes. Commodity prices are falling and declines in Asian currencies, led by China, could depress the sterling price of goods imported from the region.But an acceleration in overall pay growth may mask the fact that unskilled workers are sharing less and less in economic prosperity. This is a problem for the government, not the central bank.Context news- Total pay, including bonuses, rose 2.4 per cent in the three months to June compared with the same period a year earlier, the Office for National Statistics said on Aug. 12. This marked a slowdown from the 3.2 per cent growth rate reported for the three months to May. The ONS said the drop reflected a high single-month growth rate for March 2015 falling out of the latest figures.- Regular pay, which excludes bonuses, rose 2.8 per cent in the three months to June - the same as the growth rate for the three months to May.- British starting salaries for permanent jobs rose at the weakest pace in 18 months in July and firms hired staff at the slowest rate in over two years, according to a survey of recruitment agencies published on Aug. 7.RELATED ARTICLESU.S. job openings hit record high, workers more scarceUnemployment rates by province, cityCanada adds 66,800 jobs in January, unemployment rate rises© Copyright Canadian HR Reporter, Thomson Reuters Canada Limited.

In my opinion Melissa Fernandez isa true artist. She is innovative, expressive, immensely charismatic, and tremendously funny. She can bring a smile on even the most utterly unexcited person's face!
She can light up an entire stage even if dancing solo, but when she dances besides other girls my eyes are immediately drawn to her! It doesn't matter, she can even be dressed in pijamas ( i think i saw her once ) and MC/moderate on stage and she will still make it the best event you've ever attended. Her dancing is not able to be describedwith any words known to man kind….. I should invent new words for all the craziness she brings to the dancefloor!
I think the best way to say it that she performs or is involved in every dance, would be like it's the last dance of her life! You know 'live like there's no tomorrow, dance like there's no tomorrow' kind of way. As a person, she makes you want to dance! To have fun, to just live a little! When she speaks, it's not just words, it's like the best improv comedy show!…..
The first time I saw Melissa I immediatley fell in love with her style and charisma! But what I love the most about her, is that even though we haven't seen eachother in a while, she is still stuck in my heart just like 5 years ago, when I was a little salsa beginner trying to find my way in the salsa scene, and I feel that she gave me all the inspiration I needed just by being HERSELF!
Meli is and always will be a rolemodel for me, and it's always the biggest pleasure and honor to meet her, watch her show, or just admire her dancing via youtube.

Austrian racer, New Hampshire ski school director, Beconta rep
Egon N. Zimmermann, 83, died February 27, at his home in Kirchbichl, Austria. In FIS archives, he is referred to as Egon Zimmermann I; the younger Egon Zimmermann II was Olympic downhill champion in 1964.
Born in Innsbruck, and raised by his impoverished grandmother in Kirchbichl, by dint of hard training and natural talent Egon earned a berth on the Austrian ski team in 1954, and after a number of GS victories became a top downhiller. He took second in the Hahnenkamm Combined three times (1958 to 1960, including second in downhill in 1958 and 1960 and second in slalom in 1959), and competed at the 1958 FIS World Championships (top ten finish in GS) and the 1960 Olympics (10th in downhill). He met American racer Penny Pitou at the 1958 Hahnenkamm and they were married in 1961.
The couple built a house in Gilford, New Hampshire, took over the ski school at Gunstock (then Belknap Mountain), and hired a disciplined staff of Austrian instructors. Two sons, Christian and Kim, were born in 1962 and 1965. After their divorce in 1968, Egon continued running the ski school, and worked as a sales rep for the ski equipment importer Beconta, In partnership with his boyhood friend Horst Hausberger, he opened ski shops in Gilford and Nashua, New Hampshire.
Egon's second marriage ended in divorce in 1980, and he returned to Austria. He married his third wife, Hanna, in 1983.
Survivors include his widow, Hanna; siblings Ulli, Christa and Hans and their families; sons Christian (wife Debra) and Kim (partner Jenn); and grandchildren Zane, Zoe and Dylan.

Tom Petty was one of the "not making too much of a fuss" high quality cool dudes of my teenage years. Everything about him was right, from his style and looks, to his music and the videos to accompany it. If I would compare him with a director, it would be Tim Burton. Amazing story teller, fantasy infused and a little dark and spooky.
Tom Petty was born October 20, 1950 in Florida and had a tough childhood with an alcoholic father who didn't get his son's mild artistic way and abused him. At the age of 10 his uncle was working at the set of Follow That Dream and took him to meet Elvis. That encounter had a big impact on little Tom, although what he cites to have been a turning point in his life was the he saw the Beatles on The Ed Sullivan Show.
It was not long after that Tom Petty formed his first band the Epics that later turned into Mudcrutch. After Mudcrutch split up, Tom followed a solo career to eventually join again forces with Mike Campbell and Benmont Tench (both of who were members of Mudcrutch) and Blair and Stan Lynch and form the Heartbreakers.
In 1988 Tom Petty became a part of the Traveling Wilburys, George Harrison's mega band, which also included Roy Orbison, Bob Dylan and Jeff Lynne.
Tom Petty released 20 studio albums in one of the above formations, contributed a great deal to what rock music is today and influenced many artists from the Foo Fighters, to The Strokes, Kings of Leon and even the cult film Spinal Tap.
I have been a huge fan of this man since I remember myself, but I tried my best to pick some of my favorite videos. Rest in Peace Tom Petty.

by Michael Davies
From the back cover of the booklet, available in its entirety from
TAN Books
Based on Father Adrian Fortescue's famous work
The Mass: A Study of the Roman Liturgy
, the little book gives a compact history of the Roman Rite of the Mass from the Last Supper to the Traditional Mass ("Tridentine Mass") as it is said today. Michael Davies - the foremost author in English on the changes in the Catholic liturgy - explains the origin of Low Mass, of Sacramentaries, of the Gallican and various other Western Rites, etc. He highlights the reforms of Pope St. Gregory the Great (590-604) and Pope St. Pius V (1566-1572), showing how neither "reform" produced a "new" liturgy; rather the liturgical texts were always treated with the upmost reverence, and revisions were always minor. Michael Davies points out that "the very idea of composing a new order of Mass was and is totally alien to the whole Catholic ethos" and that "The Catholic tradition has been to hold fast to what has been handed down and to loOk upon any novelty with the utmost suspicion." Yet this unbroken Catholic tradition was breached in 1970 when the Roman Missal was subjected to radical revision.
The reader will come away from this book with a totally new appreciation for the "Tridentine Mass" as being our sacred and life-giving liturgical heritage - passed down to us from Christian antiquity and intended to be passed on to all Catholic generations yet to come!

I'm anti-social.
And I'm allowed to be, I'm a Buddhist monk. That's my job.
It finally dawned on me that the reason I never really "got" Facebook is that Facebook is the opposite of monk. Even a geek monk. I can teach on-line, even answer questions via YouTube, but socialize? Ewww.
At least I got a smile out of my second Facebook account deactivation, and I hope you will too. Here's the screenshot of the day:
Sorry guys, I'll miss y... no, actually, I won't :)

At first I chose a piece of hand-dyed linen that had been waiting for its turn, and had been a bit sad because of the brightness of its color contrast, red and yellow.
Then I marked squares and filled these with 'handwritten' versions of the ongiong name, in various orientations.
|you need a good stabilizer to be able to put that kind of stitching onto the fabric...
These filled squares were then overlaid with large versions of the individual letters of the name ESCHER. Of course, the 'e' appears twice in the name, but that must not necessarily result in a doubling of appearance on the piece. Along the way certain readjustments had to be made, because I mis-stitched, or made an unconscious decision that something about the plan had to be changed, who knows. In any case, the original plan looked slightly different, but only a little bit, really.
|First an outline, that can then be filled.
Here you can see the almost finished piece as I am still debating its final orientation.
And this is the final orientation it has arrived at.

Reply To: Hi – I'm a sociopath.
Home › Forums › Lovefraud Community Forum – General › Hi – I'm a sociopath. › Reply To: Hi – I'm a sociopath.
I liked your response to the 10 reasons sociopaths are losers. My ex-sociopath lover was very complex. I knew what I was dealing with early on with him but I still cared and loved him because I genuinely believe he doesn't want to be like he is. He is a gifted writer as are you. I see his struggles in his writing. I was forced to go no contact with him as you have confirmed. He sent me an email since I put him on notice. It could all be manipulation on his part to draw me back in, but I chose to believe his pain and consider this closure. Here is what he wrote me:
Go Away
I've been told that I do not belong and to go away so often that I believe I should. I have been told that I am no good, a loser, liar, and neer do well so I now understand that it too true. It's odd to be something so much different than I ever wanted or strive to be in my life as a man and person. Sobering really even more saddening, but accepted and probably preordained in my own character now. A self defense mechanism to put off the inevitable and prevent more damage by saying words or actions that hurt those I love and care most for. Furthering their true knowledge of what I feel for them or even knowing the depth of love I feel.
I want you to know one thing intrinsic and absolute. You are loved by me and I thank you for the person who is so special. I want you to live with the spirit of adventure and goodness innate in yourself. I will miss my dear friend but know that I am not good for you nor want to burden you further. It is the best and only gift I can give. I will never speak an ill word about you or try to embarrass or cause you any trouble ever. Nor will I contact you further as your wish and know that it is best.
So yes I am going away from you, but I never want the feeling inside of me in the time spent with you to ever leave. I refuse to let that go away. You've made an indelible mark on my soul that I am grateful and wanted you to know you are one of the most important people I've ever had come through my life. I just wish it would have been sooner and I would have been better equipped to show you how truly incredible you truly are.
Good bye my friend, live and love

A paedophile who possessed more than a quarter of a million indecent images of children, including some classed as extreme pornography, has been sent to prison.
Sean Mulcahy (50) from Huntingdon had tried to delete many of the indecent images and movies of young children which police found stored on multiple devices after a raid in April.
Mulcahy, who admitted to making and possessing still and moving images, was sentenced to 20 months at Peterborough Crown Court today, Friday November 27, having already pleaded guilty to the charges.
The images he possessed were accessed over a period of more than two years from January 2013.
Caroline Allison, prosecuting, said: "He said on interview he felt he had not had much support or advice. He said he would look at the images then not look at them again.
"He said he was not interested in the children."
She added: "It's clear in this case there are a huge number of images and a large number of movies taken over a long period of time."
Samantha Marsh, defending Mulcahy, said he was stuck in a cycle of viewing the images having suffered from depression and anxiety.
After his previous conviction for similar offences in 2006, when he was sentenced to two months in prison , she said: "He has not been offered any help or assistance and this is something he wants to address.
"He said because of the social stigma of trying to get assistance this is not something he has been able to seek in the community or speak to his doctor about.
"He is disgusted with himself and wants to seek assistance.
"He has been working full-time up until October when he was made redundant and he wants to seek employment again in the future."
A suspended sentence for Mulcahy was requested by the defence, in part due to his early guilty plea and the assistance he gave the police when interviewed.
However, Judge Peter Murphy sentenced him to 20 months concurrent for two charges of making and possessing indecent images, and eight months concurrent for possessing extreme pornography and prohibited images.
Judge Murphy said: I'm quite sure that you do have issues that you need to have resolved and I accept you have suffered from depression and other things as well."
But he added: "Every time images of that kind are accessed, the victim is victimised again.
"The courts know from experience that the trauma of children portrayed in those images can last for the rest of their lives and make it difficult to form their own relationships."
A Sexual Offences Prevention Order was also imposed indefinitely on Mulcahy which would limit his internet use and allow the police to have access to his online activity.
The indecent images were also ordered to be destroyed.

The home is typically one of the most prized possessions of a Kentucky family. For this reason, when financial problems come into play, many begin to fear that they will lose their homes. Unfortunately, this will be the case for some; however, with a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, it is possible for most families to keep their homes.
How long before a new FHA loan with Chapter 7 bankruptcy?
Today's economic environment is filled with uncertainty. Individuals throughout Kentucky are concerned about losing their jobs and whether they will be able to find a new job if necessary. In addition, many face mounting debt as the result of a job loss or medical condition. All of this adds up to increasing financial problems for which many discover that Chapter 7 bankruptcy is the solution.
Chapter 7 bankruptcy and counseling requirements
Perhaps one of the most difficult decisions that someone facing financial difficulty will make is the decision to seek help. This help can take on many forms. It may involve taking on even more debt in an attempt to stay financially afloat in hopes of the financial picture changing, or it may involve filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy within the federal court system in Kentucky.
Chapter 13 bankruptcy process
The decision to seek assistance has been made, and the Kentucky resident can now begin to breathe a sigh of relief. Deciding to seek financial relief through bankruptcy can be a difficult decision to make because many individuals do not really know what bankruptcy entails and the benefits it can provide. In considering whether to file for Chapter 13 bankruptcy, one will want to review the basics to determine if this is the appropriate choice.
Financing a car after Chapter 7 bankruptcy
Many Kentucky residents are weighed down by the burden of debt. Medical bills, credit card bills and other loans have simply become too much. When this happens, some begin to consider filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy.
Confronting credit card debt with Chapter 7 bankruptcy
Most Americans carry at least some credit card debt, with the average consumer having a balance of about $5,000. Many of these individuals pay little more than the minimum balance each month, resulting in a growing balance, accumulating interest and little hope of ever paying off the balance in full. Credit card debt can be overwhelming, but Chapter 7 bankruptcy can offer a way out.
