A sustainable grazing system using native perennial shrubs to feed livestock and developed by Future Farm Industries Cooperative Research Centre has won the Caring for our Country Landcare Eureka Prize for Sustainable Agriculture.
The Enrich project team is led by researchers from The University of Western Australia, CSIRO and the South Australian Research and Development Institute. Field trials included a shrub site at UWA Future Farm 2050 at Pingelly, which is holding its annual Field Day today from noon to 4pm.
Enrich is a collaborative effort of researchers, extension staff and land managers across southern Australia. The team discovered that grazing native shrubs could improve profitability by up to 24 per cent in low-to-medium rainfall areas, as well as decrease greenhouse gas emissions and erosion.
Associate Professor Phil Vercoe, from UWA's School of Animal Biology and Institute of Agriculture, is researching the chemistry of native plants as part of the Enrich project.
UWA Vice-Chancellor Professor Paul Johnson said the Eureka Prize was recognition of the ground-breaking research of the collaborative team in agricultural science.
"UWA is proud of the outstanding work being done by our researchers in multi-disciplinary teams to improve the long-term sustainability of agriculture and natural resource management," Professor Johnson said.
The 2013 Australian Museum Eureka Prizes were presented in Sydney on Wednesday night. They are Australia's most comprehensive national science awards, honouring excellence across four categories of research and innovation, leadership and commercialisation, science communication and journalism and school science.
Professor Johnson said UWA had been supporting agricultural industries across Australia since its establishment 100 years ago and was recently ranked 26th in the world for life and agricultural sciences, according to the Academic Ranking of World Universities.
"Our researchers are using innovative science to find new ways to farm sustainably while meeting the challenge of producing enough food to feed a world population that will grow by 50 per cent to nine billion people by the year 2050," he said.
UWA Future Farm 2050 is a large-scale laboratory for advanced research into farming systems by scientists from WA's leading university.

Cardiac Rehabilitation Service inspires Lincoln 10k race fundraising effort
Success stories from people who have recovered from heart attacks or surgery with the help of a specialist rehabilitation programme have inspired a fundraising pledge.
Keith Rossington, a quality assurance manager at Lincolnshire Community Health Services NHS Trust (LCHS), has decided to raise money towards a new rowing machine for the Cardiac Rehabilitation Service after seeing the difference his clinical colleagues make to their patients.
Keith's challenge will see him lining up with thousands of competitors at the City of Lincoln 10k race on Sunday, July 1.
"I work very closely with the team which covers the Louth and Skegness areas," he explained. "They are always so dedicated and passionate about what they do so when I saw a post on Facebook about how the team were raising money to buy new equipment for their programme at Burgh Le Marsh, I wanted to help."
Exercise equipment is used by the service as part of its exercise and rehabilitation programme, which sees specialist nurses, exercise specialists and assistants developing individually tailored plans to support those who have experienced a heart attack, surgery or procedure to have the confidence to return to normal daily activities.
Part of Keith's role at LCHS sees him helping clinical staff to understand how patient feedback can directly improve the service offered.
Keith added: "I asked the team what would make the biggest difference to them and their patients and they suggested a new rowing machine. I am really proud to be running for them."
The 10k race was originally due to take place in March this year but was postponed for safety reasons due to adverse weather conditions.
Keith, who has twice completed the race before, will be joined by his daughter Wendy Rossington, her partner Mark Buxton and his niece Sarah Rossington.
He has already surpassed his original goal of £500 and continues to raise as much money as he can.
Alison Bunn, cardiac rehabilitation clinical nurse specialist at LCHS, said: "Keith is already a valued member of our wider support team but we are honoured he has chosen to raise money for our trust's Charitable Funds. Any new equipment we are able to buy will support those attending our programme to have a better experience. Undertaking regular exercise is important in helping to promote recovery and preventing any future cardiac events. We thank Keith and wish him the best of luck for the race."

One Year on the Journey
To arrive where we started
This Spring, I found myself back at the City of Ten Thousand Buddhas for four weeks. Interestingly, I was here exactly a year ago for an overnight visit, at the very beginning of the bicycling pilgrimage around the world.
Back then, I was simply pulled by a strong intuition to make CTTB the first stop of the pilgrimage -- not really knowing why, nor having any clue that this place will be such an important part of my journey.
A pilgrimage around the globe by bicycle, in service of the ecological and spiritual awakening of our time.

Crime rates against women and girls in Northern SK highest in the country
- Kaitlynn Nordal | July 17, 2019
A 33-year-old woman from the Beardy's and Okemasis Cree Nation was found dead in a vehicle on the reserve on July 6th.
Police said roughly six o'clock that morning, they responded to a report of a damaged van. It had some minor front-end damage, after it was lodged in the trees in a wooded area.
Jessica Cameron was found dead in the front passenger seat while her partner Jamie Smallchild, 25, was in the driver's seat with minor injuries, say the RCMP.
After police reported what they considered to be inconsistencies between the injuries of the occupants and the damage to the van Rosthern RCMP, RCMP Major Crime Unit South, Saskatoon RCMP Forensic Identification Section and Prince Albert RCMP Traffic Reconstruction continued the investigation.
Smallchild was charged with second degree murder on July 7th.
A funeral for Cameron was held July 16 at the Veterans Memorial Hall on Beardy's and Okemasis Cee Nation and those who attended wore red as a symbol of awareness of missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls, or purple for domestic violence awareness.
Her death comes only days after Statistics Canada (StatsCan) revealed their newest numbers showing that crime rates against young women and girls in northern Saskatchewan are highest in the country.
StatsCan released their newest number on July 4th showing that in 2017 violence against women and girls ages 24 and younger was highest in northern Saskatchewan (13,886 victims per 100,000 people) than anywhere else in the country. These numbers prove to be five times higher than in southern Saskatchewan.
StatsCan said in their report this could be because the geographical remoteness could cause issues to accessing victim services and escaping violence.
The study also showed that national average of violent crimes against young females in Northern Canada was 3,643 victims per 100,000 which was nearly twice as high as rates against young men and boys in the north at 2,090 per 100,000.
According to the same study 44 per cent of violent crime against young females was committed by intimate partners, while 20 per cent as by other family members.
For this reason, Saskatchewan has implemented Bill 141 - The Interpersonal Violence Disclosure Protocol Act, or Clare's Law, after it passed its third reading in legislation on May 2nd.
Bill 141 would allow police officers to release information about someone's violent or abusive history to intimate partners whose safety may be in question.
Upon being fully implemented, it would create a proper framework and standardized process for the disclosure of information to applicants who believe they may be at risk from an intimate partner under a "right to ask" basis, under a "right to know" basis.
The process would involve a multi-sector review panel, which will provide recommendations on potential disclosures. The police service will then make the decision to when or if to disclose information. Bill 141 will be fully implemented later this year.
Clare's Law was implemented across England and Wales in March 2014 and is named after Clare Wood, who was murdered by her abusive ex-partner in February of 2009.

Topic Page: Sunna
Muslim code of practice; a body of traditional law based on the sayings, actions, and guidance of the prophet Muhammad, as detailed in the Hadith and the Sirah (a biography of the prophet's life). The Sunna forms part of the Shari'a, the law of Islam; there is no difference between civil and religious law. Following the Koran (or Quran or Qur'an) and the Sunna provides all the necessary information for a Muslim to live the right way.
Sunni Muslims believe that they are the true followers of the Sunna; their imams (religious leaders) are seen as advisers. Shiite Muslims have created their own version of the Sunna, as they accept the rulings of the historic imams (believed to be descended indirectly from Muhammad) as divine. They also believe that the last imam (the 'hidden imam'), continues to pass on divine authority through chosen leaders. Different Shiite groups disagree as to who was the last imam, and who the chosen leaders are.

4 Ways to Use an Attached Monitor with Your Surface
After you've connected your Surface to a monitor with the right cable, you need to tell your Surface exactly how to send its image. Windows offers you four options, and you can see them by following these steps:
Swipe your finger inward from any screen's right edge to fetch the Charms bar and then tap the Devices icon.
Tap the Project icon to connect with an attached monitor, a TV, or a digital projector.
The Project pane offers four choices:
PC Screen Only: This option recognizes the second monitor but keeps it blank, displaying only your Surface's screen. It's handy mostly when connecting to a projector at a meeting or conference. You can set up everything on your Surface without everybody having to see your busywork on the projector. Then, when you're ready to wow the crowd, switch to one of the other modes, described next.
Duplicate: Perhaps the easiest way to use two monitors, this option simply duplicates your Surface's screen onto the second monitor or projector. It's great for presentations, and it lets you control what you see on both screens. When your fingers touch the Surface, you see the effect on both screens.
Extend: Meant mostly for office work, this option extends your Surface's Desktop app across your second monitor, giving you an extra wide desktop. Or, you can keep the Start screen on your Surface and run your Windows desktop on the larger, second screen.
Second Screen Only: This option blanks the Surface's screen, sending the display only to your second monitor. It's a simple way to connect a larger monitor, but you lose the benefits of your touchscreen tablet. Unless you're trying to mimic a desktop computer, complete with a mouse and keyboard, use the Duplicate option instead.
After you tap your choice, your Surface may blank its screen as it looks for and connects to the second screen. A moment later, your Surface's screen appears on the second screen.
Working on two different monitors simultaneously may be confusing at first. These tips help you adjust to this strange new configuration:
When setting up the second monitor for the first time, choose the Duplicate option. That makes it a lot easier to see if your monitor is recognizing your Surface.
Your Surface's sound piggybacks along with its video through both an HDMI and a Mini DisplayPort cable. However, the sound plays through the speakers built into your monitor or TV set. If you want better sound, route the HDMI cable to your home stereo. Then have the stereo send the video to the monitor through a second HDMI cable.
When you choose Extend, Windows makes the screen extend off your Surface's right edge and onto the second monitor. To change that, visit the Desktop app's Control Panel. There, in the Appearance and Personalization category's Adjust Screen Resolution section, you can tell Windows which way to extend the desktop: left, right, up, or down.
That same Adjust Screen Resolution section's Detect and Identify buttons help you figure out which monitor is which. Then you can position the two screens to meet your needs.
If you're accustomed to using a mouse, the mouse-clickable corners on your Surface's screen work on both monitors. Point and click in either monitor's lower-left corner to fetch the Start menu, for example.

Cobalt Blue Hues and Playful Style Rule This Canton, MA Apartment
Twenty miles south of Boston in the town of Canton, you'll find two programers, Vinaya and her husband Arun. Originally from India, the couple wed five years ago, and since then, they've lived in five different homes — a new one each year. Although Vinaya says, "we will be celebrating our sixth anniversary later this year, and I joke we are due for a move soon," their current apartment has definitely found its way into their hearts. "It's so close to everything we want, and we have come to love the town we are in." She adds, "As far as the actual apartment is concerned, we absolutely love the open floor plan and, at the end of the day, this really does feel like home."
Modern, but comfortable, the couple initially chose the home for its convenient location, but over time, as they've styled the space, the interior has become an increasingly bigger plus. "Starting over, again, meant getting a lot of budget furniture," Vinaya explains, but since moving in, they've been slowly swapping their big-box store items with more unique finds that speak to their personalities. Though Vinaya admits she's no expert when it comes to decorating, the process of filling this apartment has been an exciting learning experience which she shares on her blog. "When I started decorating, I had no idea what my style was. I have gone through several design styles by now — which explains our farmhouse-style dining table and cottage-style bed! I slowly started with little projects at home, and soon fell in love with cozy but modern interiors."
But for all of the feel-good achievements made in decorating, there are always a few hurdles. Because they're just renting the space, Vinaya has had to hold back from making more permanent changes — and another sacrifice has come in the form of the train that runs to Boston behind the building. "The first few mornings after we moved in, we used to jump out of bed, startled by the unexplained sounds and vibrations," Vinaya says. "Although we have gotten used to it, we always warn our overnight guests for what's to come in the morning!"
Even though the couple's home still brings a learning curve, having a space to share with friends — and one that allows Vinaya to experiment and have fun discovering her style — is priceless. –Sabrina

(Includes Quotes from the Boston Globe, June 7th edition)
The "Soca Warriors" were one of the stories of World Cup 2006. Trinidad and Tobago was the smallest nation ever to qualify for the World Cup, and they inspired us all. After Avery John of the New England Revolution was sent off early in the second half of the opening match against Sweden, T&T managed an improbable draw thanks largely to the outstanding goalkeeping of West Ham's Shaka Hislop. (Hislop now plays for FC Dallas). In the following T&T were unfortunate to not be leading England 1-0 at half time, and continued to play well in the 2nd half until two late England goals buried the Soca Warriors.
But fast forward to Gold Cup 2007. The T&T Football Association has banned all 23 players who played in last year's World Cup for the nation from participating in the Gold Cup. A pay dispute is at the center of the trouble and the fact that T&T's players don't have a PFA has helped the Federation blacklist the World Cup veterans.
"I would love to be there, to have a chance with the national team," Revolution Defender Avery John said. "This is a major tournament. But everyone is standing firm because we believe change is needed and this is something that needs to be done for the future, for the young guys.
"We are blacklisted and can't play. We haven't received the money we were promised [from the World Cup]. We need to set up a PFA [Professional Footballers Association] in Trinidad to make sure this doesn't happen again."
The T&T World Cup vets have contacted the English PFA about organizing a division for Trinidad and many will continue to support their nation in the Gold Cup. "Regardless of everything, I will be supporting the team in the Gold Cup," John said. "I haven't seen them play, so I don't know how they will do. They have more local-based players and they will be getting some good experience and exposure. They have a lot of young guys and I want them to do well."

The Shchyolkovskaya Gang - Murderers and Animal Sellers
The beginning of «Shchyolkovskaya»
Alexander Valentinovich Matusov, nicknamed "Basmach" and the leader of the Shchyolkovskaya organized crime gang, was born in 1962 in the Moscow region. During the Soviet era, Matusow
lived in the village of Biokombinat in the Shchelkovsky district. This was the starting point of his career as a criminal authority. There he began to enter the underworld as the leader of the Shchyolkovskaya group.
In the early 1990s, Matusov began his journey with the Izmailovskaya OCG, but practically nothing is known about his activities and status in this gang, a press article mentioned. After leaving Izmaylovskaya, Matusov created his own group in Biokombinat and recruited local citizens into it. Pavel Bondartzkov (Boldaris) and Igor Rozhnev (Pegas) became his associates, who at that time had already served time in prison.
Quite quickly, the gang completely subjugated the village and controlled its merchants. The Schyolkovskaya OCG's landmark was an extremely tough approach to doing business; with competitors from other factions, they preferred not to negotiate, but physically destroy them. In Biokombinat everyone was afraid of them, even the police.
A vivid example of their operational style was when the gang attacked four people in 1996, in the village of Sverdlovskyi, outside of Moscow, located in the Shchyolkovo district. Aksenov, Zarubin, Kashirsky and Parkhomenko were gang members from a rival group, according to one version, businessmen, according to the other. They spent time in a restaurant where one of the Shchyolkovskaya members, Braznikov, noticed them. After he informed his boss of the four. Bondartzkov and 10 "colleagues" with knives and firearms drove out to meet them. As the group of four exited the restaurant, a group of armed killed Kashirsky and Parkhomenko.
Zarubin was lucky, he escaped with his car covered in bullet holes and he was discovered by policemen who arrived at the scene. Aksenov was wounded and taken to the hospital. Fearing the testimony of the survivor, Matusov's gang decided to eliminate him. With the help of the group doctor and surgeon of the hospital, Murad Kazhlaev, the bandits were able to find out the specific location of Aksenov, who was guarded by police officers. Rozhnev climbed onto the windowsill outside the hospital building and shot Aksenov to death through the window of the intensive care unit on the first floor.
Friendship with Kingisepp
There were a few factions that Matusov's Schyolkovskaya gang members actively cooperated with, notably the Kingiseppskaya gang from the Leningrad region. Leningrad gang was headed by former boxers Sergei Finagin (Finn) and Imran Ilyasov.
Schelkovskaya and Kingiseppskaya OCGs both specialized contract killings and kidnappings. They targeted not only businessmen, but also other criminal authorities, who they demanded large sums of money from, then beat and killed them, dumping their corpses in the forest near Moscow. In 2009, the police found the graves of 15 victims of the Shchyolkovskaya group.
The gangs helped each other carry out jobs, conducted joint operations and even exchanged killers. One case led to the groups' major problems.
First, Kingiseppskaya received orders from the former chairman of the board of directors of the bank Russian Capital, Georgy Safiyev, considered one of the founders of the organized crime group. Later, Igor Izmestyev, senator from Bashkortostan, ordered a hit on Yuri Bushev, the founder and owner of Bashneft, however this turned out to cause hard consequences for the whole group. Izmestyev is now serving a life sentence for organizing the murder.
The group tried to assasinate Bushuev twice. The first attempt was made by Shchyolkovskaya on July 5, 2002, with an explosive device, based on a MON-50 mine, hidden in the victim's car. Pegas and another OCG member, Alexei Kulikov failed in their attempt the homemade bomb exploded while they were installing it on Bogoslovsky Lane in Moscow. Kulikov died as a result.
The second time, Kingiseppskaya members decided to kill Bushuev in 2004. The assassin was former submarine officer Alexander Pumane. However, he too failed, when he fell into the hands of the police even before he could set the bomb. He was beaten to death during interrogation by police.
A year later law enforcement agencies detained Pumane's accomplice Alexander Ivanov, who confessed to five murders. By 2007 almost all the members of the Kingiseppskaya OCG had been detained and found themselves in prison, including Finagin, Ilyasov and Izmestiev. 16 members of the group received between 4.5 and 19 years in prison, two managed to obtain an acquittal in court, and the ex-senator received a life sentence.
Members from Shchyolkovskaya managed to avoid punishment due to conspiracy, but they, as well, made a mistake.
Survivor's Evidence
In 2006, a businessman addressed the Moscow Office for Combating Organized Crime, announced his own kidnapping. According to him, he owed Igor Rozhnev a lot of money. Shchyolkovskaya members would have killed him, but the businessman was able to escape from his captors.
Based on these testimonies, the Investigative Committee was able to find the trail of the killers from Biokombinat. In 2009, the members of the OCG began to be arrested. In 2011, law enforcement officers were able to deliver seven of Matusov's gang, including Bondartzkov and Rozhnev, to court.
Investigators found out that 60 murders were associated with Shchyolkovskaya, including a triple murder in the village of Sverdlovskiy in 1996. By the verdict of the Moscow Regional Court, Bondartzkov and Rozhnev received 19 and 15 years respectively, the statute of limitations didn't even save them.
The court decided give Boldaris and Pegas the death penalty for murder regardless of the statute of limitations.
The remaining members of the gang received 9 to 10 years of imprisonment. Later, some managed to have their sentences reduced: Bondartkov to 14 years, while Rozhnev was not lucky; for his connection with the Kingiseppskaya gang, his punishment was extended to 21 years.
Some even managed to avoid prosecution, among them doctor Murad Kazhlaev. In addition to providing medical services to members of the gang, the surgeon was also responsible for the common fund of the Shchyolkovskaya gang. In 2013, the Moscow Regional Court
dismissed the case against him in connection with the expiration of the statute of limitations of the crime.
Another important member of the group Oleg Rogatin is still wanted. Matusov disappeared to Thailand for some time to escape prosecution, but not for long.
Deportation and the court
In June 2014, Thai police detained a drunken man on a moped traveling in the oncoming lane on the outskirts of the resort town of Sattahip. After checking databases, it was found that the heavy man, driving a scooter in his underpants was Matusov, who had been living using forged documents. His capture was reported to Russia and he was subsequently deported. In Russia he faced a 15-year prison sentence for committing several assassination attempts and for his complicity in several murders.
The Moscow Regional Court considered the case of the head of the Shchyolkovskaya OCG in the summer of 2015. The battle between the prosecutor's office and the court interfered with the speedy proceedings. The Mosсow regional court constantly returned the case to the supervisory authority for correction of procedural errors. The OCG leader's term of detention was constantly extended.
The defense tried to appeal against the decisions, referring to violations of the requirements of the European Court of Human Rights. Matusov spent more than 2.5 years in the prison waiting for his court date and was denied bail of 5 million rubles. The case was taken up in February 2016.
On June 15, 2017, there was a really unexpected turn of events when he was acquitted and released. The jury, which could be gathered only on the third call, found him innocent in the case of the murder of three people in the village of Sverdlovskyi. On July 5, the Moscow Regional Court was forced to agree with the jury's decision and rendered a final decision on Matusov's innocence.
Shchyolkovskaya business
In addition to building up his own organized crime group, in the early 1990s, Matusov was also engaged in formal entrepreneurial activities.
In total, six companies were registered to Matusov in different years. In November 1994, he established LLC YOUTH-5, which prior to its liquidation in 2011 was engaged in vehicle repair and trade. The list of founders of the company included Matusov's accomplices, Rozhnev and Oleg Rogatin, as well as some Alexei Samokhin. The latter are still engaged in entrepreneurial freight activities. Some companies, for example, LLC Biota and Consul M, have not specified their activities.
Several companies were registered by his accomplices, such as LLC «Perspektiva-2», which in 2011 owned a market in one of the areas of Biokombinat. Now it belongs to Oleg Rogatin's sons, Sergei and Denis.
Permits for the construction and lease of land for this and other markets in the area where given by the former head of the rural settlement Aniskinskoye Viktor Zatserkovny. Biokombinat is administratively subordinate to him.
Rogatin himself was a driver at Zatserkovny. Thanks to this acquaintance Shchyolkovskaya's companies were given good market areas. For example, for LLC "Tecton," Matusov was called the head of the company, but its founders are Elena Bondartzkova and Svetlana Zatserkovnaya. Now it belongs to Oleg Rogatin and Alexei Lakhin. The latter was involved in a fairly large number of companies, one way or another associated with Matusov and his business.
At the moment, Reverse LLC (registered in 2008) continues to operate. The company specializes in leasing and managing its own or leased property. It also belongs to Alexei Lakhin and Oleg Rogatin.
Shchelkovskaya members did not like Komsomolskaya Pravda's publication about the connection of the district head with Matusov's business. Through the court they obtained a refutation of information about the connection between Perspektiva-2 and Zatserkovny with bandits from the 1990s. Zatserkovny himself even received compensation for moral damage in the amount of 10 thousand rubles.
Although there is still a LLC "Skvatter", which belongs to Denis Olegovich Rogatin (probably Oleg Rogatin's son) and Alexei Lakhin. The company was opened in 2003. Among the former founders - Alexander Matusov, and among the directors - Sergei Victorovich Zatserkovny (probably the son of the head of the settlement).
As for Matusov himself, he had a business or was in the Kursk region for some time - two companies were registered in his name there. For example, LLC Anahit, which provided hairdressing services and is currently in the process of liquidation.
The second company - LLC "Reserve" - was registered in 2015, according to the USRLE. She is engaged in wholesale trade of live animals. In 2015, the company reported revenue of 23 million rubles.

Gunnar Sønsteby
Gunnar Fridtjof Thurmann Sønsteby DSO (11 January 1918 – 10 May 2012) was a member of the Norwegian resistance movement during the German occupation of Norway in World War II.[6] Known by the nickname "Kjakan" ("The Cheeks") and as "Agent No. 24", he was the most highly decorated citizen in Norway, including being the only person to have been awarded the War Cross with three swords, Norway's highest military decoration.[7][8]
Early life and educationEdit
Born in Rjukan, in Telemark, he was the son of Margit and Gustav Sønsteby.[9] As a boy he enjoyed walking in the mountains around Rjukan with his school friends, many of whom later became members of the Resistance alongside him. He attended what is now Rjukan videregående skole, earning an examen atrium. Among the members of his graduating class in 1937 were later Resistance fighters such as Knut Haugland, Halvor Rivrud, Olav Skogen, Leif Nilsen, Rolf Solem, Turjus Aarnes, Knut Berge, and Einar Nordgaard.
After graduating from gymnasium, he moved to Oslo, where he studied at Otto Treiders Business School.[9] The next year he began studying social economy at the University of Oslo.[9] While in Oslo he also carried out his obligatory military service and worked in a series of jobs.
Second World WarEdit
Sønsteby was working as an accountant when the Germans occupied Norway in 1940. Norway's regular armed forces surrendered on 10 June 1940, after two months of fighting, and the country was subsequently occupied by the Germans. He quickly joined the Norwegian Resistance forces in Østlandet. He fought in Philip Hansteen's ski company. He was also involved in the underground press.[10]
In 1941 he was brought into the secret British military unit called Special Operations Executive (SOE) at their office in Stockholm. He became "Agent 24" in the SOE. While on assignment in Stockholm in 1942, he was interned and imprisoned for three months by Swedish police, but managed to convince them that he was not the same Gunnar Sønsteby for whom they were looking. Back in Norway in 1943, he was caught by the Gestapo but managed to escape and flee to Sweden. From there, he was sent to Britain, where in June of that year he enrolled in the Linge Company, which was formed to participate in British-led operations in Norway, to organise, instruct, and the lead the Norwegian Resistance Movement, to serve as a link between the home front and the outside world, and to perform intelligence work. In October, he parachuted into Norway and became a leader of the Milorg group. In that same month he also became head of the newly established Oslo Gang, a sabotage group, whose other members were Andreas Aubert, Viggo Axelsen, Gregers Gram, Henrik Hop, William Houlder, Max Manus, Martin Olsen, Arthur Pevik, Birger Rasmussen, Tor Stenersen, and Edvard Tallaksen.[10] The British historian William Mackenzie called the Oslo Gang "the best group of saboteurs in Europe".
After saboteur training in England in 1943, he became the contact for all SOE agents in eastern Norway and head of the Norwegian Independent Company 1 group in Oslo. This group performed several spectacular acts of sabotage; among them smuggling out plates for the printing of Norwegian kroner from the Norwegian Central Bank to the exiled government in London and blowing up the office for Norwegian forced labour, thereby stopping the Nazis' plan of sending young Norwegian men to the Eastern Front.[3][10]
Sønsteby's gang also carried out the "Mardonius" action, blowing up several ships in Oslo harbour in April 1943. They also attacked Kongsberg munitions factory in September 1944, destroying guns and vital machine tools. In addition, they killed several leading figures in the Occupation Forces, including the Nazi head of police in Norway, Karl Marthinsen.[10]
Other actions included the theft of 75,000 ration books, which allowed pressure to be placed on authorities, stopping a threatened cut in rations; the destruction of sulphuric acid manufacturing facilities in Lysaker; destroying or seriously damaging over 40 aircraft, and related equipment which were being repaired at a tram company depot in Korsvoll; destroying a railway locomotive which was under repair at Skabo; destroying a number of Bofors guns, a field gun and vital machine tools at the Kongsberg arms factory; and starting a large fire in an oil storage depot at Oslo harbour which destroyed large quantities of lubricating oil and other specialist oils.[11] After D-Day, Sønsteby concentrated largely on bombing Norwegian railways, thereby keeping German reinforcements from being moved back to the front line. His team also sank the German transport ship Donau outside Drobak in 1945.
Operating in occupied territory, and being high on the Gestapo list of wanted men, Sønsteby became a master of disguise. He operated under 30 to 40 different names and identities, and the Germans did not acquire his real name until near the end of the war. They were never able to catch him. His obituary in Aftenposten attributed his ability to elude capture to "resourcefulness, luck, intuition," and "such an entirely ordinary appearance that he was hardly noticed when he rode his bicycle through Oslo's streets."[10]
Sønsteby himself explained his ability to get through the war without capture on his ability to carry out many of his actions himself and on his ability to arrange for his own ID papers. He had 20 to 30 places where he spent the night, many for only one night at a time, and never used any of them for more than a couple months. To avoid detection, he moved from flat to flat almost daily. One of his hideaways was above a bakery. "When I came to the baker's shop I always looked at the girl selling bread. If she gave a special face I would know the Germans were there. I would turn around," Sønsteby later said. Aftenposten described him as having "nerves of steel" and he himself said that he had inherited a strong psychological makeup from his parents. "I was so cold," he once said, "that some time I didn't react the way I should have." During the last six months of the war he carried a hand grenade at all times, so that he could commit suicide if he was arrested. Not until the very end of the war, he explained, did he begin to experience anxiety.[10]
Sønsteby was a "master forger who could replicate the signature of Nazi police chief Karl Marthinsen."[12]
As a punishment for Sønsteby's activities, his father was arrested by the Gestapo and held as a hostage for almost two years, from February 1943 to December 1944.[10]
Assassinations of informantsEdit
When Sønsteby was 80 years old, he said "Of course wrong decisions were made, also by the Resistance Movement. But one must remember that war was going on. It did happen that we had to kill without being sure that the person concerned was an informant. But the decisions were correct—there and then."[13]
Post-war activitiesEdit
The Nazis withdrew from Norway on 8 May, and on 13 May Sønsteby led the cortege when Crown Prince Olav, the first member of the royal family to return from exile in London, arrived in Oslo. On 7 June, Sønsteby served as bodyguard for the Crown Prince and his family at the homecoming of the rest of the royal family, including King Haakon.[10]
After the liberation of Norway, he refused job offers from both the British and Norwegian intelligence services. "I didn't want any more war," he explained. "I had had enough. I'd lost five years of my life." Instead, in the autumn of 1945, Sønsteby moved to Boston, where he worked at a government purchasing center in New York and took part in an executive study program at Harvard Business School. He worked for Standard Oil (Esso). In 1949 he returned home to Norway, where he held several major positions in private business. Later, he also worked at the Norwegian Home Front Museum.[10]
Throughout the post war years and particularly after his retirement, Sønsteby gave many lectures in an effort to pass on the lessons of the Second World War to future generations.[3][8] His credo, he said, was as follows: "As long as I live, I will tell the important facts. The historians can analyze, but I was there." Harald Stanghelle wrote in 2018 that Sønsteby was for many years a "living war encyclopedia" who helped serve as "an effective political vaccine against all forms of fascism" and who, while "factually oriented and sober," could get angry in debates at persons who tried to equate democracies with autocracies and had little patience for "historyless historians and ignorant journalists." At the same time, he minimised his own personal contributions to the war effort, saying that the merchant marines had played a more significant role in Norway's fight against the Nazi occupiers.[14]
Two days before Sønsteby's death, Norwegian Financial Minister Sigbjørn Johnsen unveiled a statue of Sønsteby at Rjukan torg and stated, "Gunnar Sønstebye is a great hero who risked his life so that we could win our freedom and our democracy".[10]
Honours and AwardsEdit
Captain (Kaptein) Sønsteby is the only person awarded the War Cross with Three Swords (more properly known as "War Cross with sword and two swords"). All three awards were made in 1946.[15]
His additional recognitions include the following:
- In 1945, Sønsteby was awarded the British Distinguished Service Order and the U.S. Medal of Freedom with Silver Palm.
- In 2001 he was awarded the American-Scandinavian Foundation's culture award.[15]
- On 13 May 2007, a statue of him was erected on Solli plass in Oslo. The statue was sculpted by Per Ung and portrays a 25-year-old Sønsteby standing next to his bicycle. The statue was unveiled by King Harald of Norway.[16]
- Poland awarded him the Medal Pro Memoria in 2007.[17]
- On his 90th birthday on 11 January 2008, he was honoured with a reception at Akershus Fortress attended by King Harald V of Norway and the other members of the Royal Family.[15]
- In 2008 he was the first non-American awarded the United States Special Operations Command Medal.[3]
- There are monuments for him in Oslo (at Solli Plass) and in Rjukan.
After deathEdit
A state funeral for Sønsteby was held on 25 May 2012 in Oslo Domkirke. Twenty-four soldiers from Hans Majestet Kongens Garde provided an honour guard, while the service was attended by the King of Norway, the Prime Minister of Norway, current and seven past Ministers of Defence, and the Chief of Defence. Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom was represented by a wreath. Several embassies to Norway were represented, including the United States Ambassador to Norway Barry B. White.
The pallbearers were six officers, a break from the norm of using soldiers drafted from the King's Guard, and as they carried the coffin from the church, four Air Force F-16s performed a missing man flypast.[18]
A book of condolences at Armed Forces Museum in Oslo, was opened to the public on 11 May 2012.[19]
Memorial fundEdit
The establishment of a Gunnar Sønstebye Memorial Fund was discussed a half year before his death. The Fund was created with donations from Erling Lorentzen, Hans Hermann Horn, and the Inge Steensland Foundation. The Fund presents an annual memorial prize, the Gunnar Sønsteby Prize, consisting of a sum of money and a miniature of Per Ung's statue of Sønstebye in Studenterlunden. The prize was first awarded on 5 January 2012. The winners have included Per Edgar Kokkvold and Kristin Solberg (2015), Deeyah Khan and Trond Bakkevig (2016), and ten Norwegian veterans (2017).
In popular cultureEdit

The Harlem Renaissance: A Time of Black-American Art
Fact: During the period of the Harlem Renaissance, the city of Harlem experienced what is commonly known as "The Great Migration." Only about 50,000 black Americans lived as residents of Harlem by 1914. However, by 1930, nearing the end of the Harlem Renaissance, Harlem was home to nearly 200,000 black Americans. This migration included black Americans from a variety of classes and backgrounds, ranging from farmers to businessmen. Because of this drastic increase in population, the art that was produced from the Harlem Renaissance all carried their own sense of individuality.

Poster for a Matt and Kim show!
This year I've had a thing for ghosts and hovering eyeballs that I toss into my drawings, which is sorta Halloweeny and almost seems fitting for the date of the show, but, I didn't want to go Halloween-themed, which is why I offset it with lighter subjects and colors. I don't know where this floating eyeball affinity came from but it kind of reminds me of this Japanese cartoon character that is an eyeball. One aspect of all of my illustrations and posters is characterizing inanimate objects and then have them interact with one another usually through their observations of one another, or looking up to the sky, which, I feel like gives the image depth. What are these characters thinking about? What could a scoop of ice cream possibly be thinking about? Or a bowl be reading with such seriousness? Funny. I think it's more of an observation of humans. We manage to stress out about everything, but, what you would do if a scoop of ice cream started stressing out? You'd probably laugh at it and tell it to chill out, literally. ;)

Harris' New V270 Features Original Design
For years, manufacturers have been outfitting boats with nicer and fancier galleys and heads. Until recently, though, the pontoon has been excluded from most of these luxury design upgrades. However, with the introduction of Harris' new V Series at the Miami Boat Show, things might be about to change.The most notable feature of the V270 is its unique center console design, which adds convenience for boaters who want to be out on the water all day long. Specifically, the V270 is the first aluminum pontoon boat to come standard with a full marine head compartment with shower, sink, vanity compartment and stainless-steel faucet. All of this is craftily tucked below deck level. Connected to the center console is a galley, which includes a faucet, sink and refrigerator.
"The V270 will make your days on the water fun and stress free because it offers what boaters have been asking for—the stability and ease of boarding of a pontoon with the conveniences found on off-shore center console boats," says Harris president Nick Stickler in a statement.
The pontoon is powered by Mercury 400R Verado, features large touch-screen displays and a built-in speaker system in the console, and has a sleek fiberglass exterior. The 270 is the only available length in the V Series.

Went to a movie with the Try It Girls last night. The movie up for discussion is Country Strong. Personally, I dislike country. There is just something about it that turns me off. Maybe it brings me back to a time in the car with my dad and "Diggin' Up Bones" by Randi Travis was cranked on the radio. I shutter even now when I think about it. But strangely enough I really liked the movie. It could have been the cast, that included Gwyneth Paltrow and my fave Gossip Girl, Leighton Meester. Or the really cute Garrett Hedland who had an amazing voice. I'm not sure what made it appeal to me, but all the pieces just fit and I even shed a couple of tears. Even though the whole cast talks with a twang, the story is really great. So, if you dislike country as much as I do, I think you'll still enjoy this movie. Go on and try it!
We are four friends who live in Calgary, AB. We decided that between our busy schedules of toting our kids from here to there and being superstar wives to our husbands we needed to discover what was around us. So we all decided to embark on a monthly voyage of exploring our world to improve our lives, to have a few laughs, and most times both. We hope you enjoy our adventure in self discovery and learning what life has to offer for you and your family and maybe we can inspire you to Try It!

Today I went into uni to catch up with my SFX work, having been off for work experience. Today I created my negative over the sculpted clay, to finish my mould and run my silicone piece.
Below you can see my finished sculpt, the top clay half is my primary piece, the lower half is a back up piece incase anything goes wrong with the top part.
To create the negative mould, we carried out the same steps as doing the initial life cast, only this time, we already have the facial mould to use. Check back through my earlier SFX posts to find more in depth details about this procedure, heres a quick run through –
1. Create the clay/modrock wall and cover the interior in Vaseline.
2. Fill with plaster, using a double skrim layer for support.
3. Allow to set for approximately 15min, then break open. remove all clay and particles from the interior to ensure the shape of the silicone run is not altered.
4. Once this has been done, we are ready to run! Place the mould on a stable horizontal surface, and pour in the silicone. Place the first part of the mould (the positive side) within the negative. Those holes we drilled earlier will help get positive to negative positioning correct. Silicone will run out the sides so watch out. Place a small dab of the silicone on top of the mould to help determine if the silicone has set.
5. After about 45min, it's time to break open! You'll have to come back next week to see the silicone piece!

A Beginner's Guide to #booksfortrade
Book trading makes up a major part of the bookish community. In fact, trading has become so popular in recent years due to the rise in social media that it has never been easier to find those elusive unicorns that seemed to be out of reach. For those who are not familiar with the term unicorn, it refers to a book or series that is incredibly rare and difficult to find. For example, an Advance Reader's Copy or ARC of one of the Harry Potter books is considered a unicorn due to the popularity of the series and the fact that it was published 10-20 years ago.
For this article, I interviewed ten active traders to find out some of the best tips and secrets for new traders in search of their favorite books. These ten were selected at random while browsing the #booksfortrade tag on Twitter, and their trading experience ranges from two months to two years and have traded over 1700 books collectively. They all graciously agreed to help me answer some of the burning questions new traders harbor, so that we can build a brighter future for the trading community (#MakeTradingGreatAgain lol).
What is the first thing to consider when getting involved in book trading?
The first thing you need to do is come up with a Wish-List (WL) and Trade-List (TL). The WL is comprised of books that you are currently looking for and are willing to trade for. This list is sectioned off into different categories based on their level of importance to the trader. A few of the basic categories include: High Priority, Mid Priority, Low Priority, etc. The TL is typically a bookstack picture of books that you have to trade. Although traders usually use pictures for their Trade-List, a printed list is acceptable. However, you will need to provide pictures of the books in question for those who are interested in trading.
After you find a book on your WL that is up for trade, make sure you decide on what you are willing to trade in return. Once you offer another trader a book of your own and they accept, it is not polite to take back your offer. Taking back an offer like this is one way to get blackballed in the trading community, and once you are labeled as a bad trader it is extremely difficult to recover from that reputation.
|Bookstack: @darkmaterialss
How do you recognize bad traders?
Bad traders can come in many varieties. Some will try to finalize a trade and seem to drop off the face of the earth after they receive their book without ever sending their end of the trade. Bad traders are cunning and manipulative. They will do anything from sweet-talking to bullying in order to get what they want. "Never let anyone pressure you into a trade you don't want," advised Kelly (@kbarina113). You have the freedom to trade for what you want, because at the end of the day, your happiness in a trade is what matters.
Additionally, always be on the lookout for suspicious traders. "There are definitely scammers with anything, so you need to be careful," adds Christina (@CAhnBooks).
How difficult is it to find a unicorn?
Since everyone has a different interpretation of a unicorn, it is very likely to come across a unicorn. However, some of the more widely classified unicorns such as Harry Potter ARCs may be harder to come by, but not impossible. Sometimes you have to really dig deep and trade two Finished Copies (FC) for one ARC. This is a common trading tactic simply because of the supply-demand dynamic.
|Wishlist: @BwBtrades
When another trader posts their books for trade, they will also attach his or her WL. You will need to look at the list to see if you have something they want. If not, you may be able to ask the trader if he or she is willing to look at what you have to offer. Then you will either comment on the trader's post or send him or her a private message where you show what you have to offer. Sometimes a trade will be quick in a whole "I'll trade you this for that," "Sure," kind of deal, while other times it takes time and negotiation. "Just be patient," Dee (@BooksbyDee) comments.
During the trading process, it is important to remember to be considerate of other traders. Do not ask anything unreasonable of a trader. For example, do not request to trade a true unicorn for three FCs and another ARC. That is simply absurd. You also need to try to grant a trader's request. "If they only want DMs... [or] if they'll only ship certain places, ignoring them or demanding changes won't make them more inclined to trade," JJ (@darkmaterialss) explains.
Are there any rules to book trading?
Yes. The main rule is DO NOT BUY OR SELL ARCs!! Did those in the back hear me? Never under any circumstances is it acceptable to exchange an ARC for monetary value. Not only is it unethical because the author does not receive the payment that they rightfully deserve, it is also illegal. This is the one of the top ways to be blackballed from the trading community and there is no excuse for it. Anyone caught selling, buying, or requesting to buy, will be blocked from trading groups and added to the list of Bad Traders.
Although this may not technically be a rule, you should always be respectful to other traders. One of my interviewees who wished to remain anonymous stated, "Courtesy goes a long way. Don't talk about other traders behind their backs. Be nice and understanding." There is so much truth to that statement. We are all here because we love books, so we have to keep other traders' thoughts and concerns in mind. "I think the book community is probably more trustworthy than other communities, because we are really in it for the books, and overall, most of these books are not that valuable, only to those who love them," Christina so elegantly put it. And she is 100% correct. The book trading community is one of the best you will ever find, but we have to treat each other with respect or we will turn into another one of those drama-filled, boy band following fangirls that annoy everyone on the internet.
After all that has been explained, the most important thing that you need to know is to simply have fun! If you are not having fun trading and expanding your personal library, then there is no point in doing it at all.
A special thank you to my fellow traders who took the time to talk with me. This article would be baseless without their input. Our discussions were enlightening, which is why I am dedicating this article to each of you.

Alejandro Pozuelo and Jozy Altidore scored as Toronto FC earned a 2-0 road win over the Montreal Impact in a rain-soaked edition of the Canadian Classique.
Quentin Westberg made four saves to earn his third clean sheet of the season. The Toronto FC goalkeeper came up particularly big on a pair of late chances from Anthony Jackson-Hamel and Maximiliano Urruti, Westberg stopping both at close range.
It was a much-needed win for Toronto, who had posted just a 1-6-4 record in its previous 11 matches. The victory puts Toronto FC (7-8-5, 26 points) back over the playoff line and into seventh place in the Eastern Conference.
The Impact have lost their last three league games, and have conceded 19 goals over their last nine matches in all competitions.
After an hour of somewhat uneventful action, Pozuelo broke the deadlock in the 61st minute. The midfielder recorded his eighth goal of the season after collecting a turnover at midfield and taking the ball just outside the box, before firing a well-placed strike into the net.
Less than four minutes after Pozuelo's goal, the referee halted the match due to heavy rains and storms in the area. Play resumed after a 25-minute delay.
The Impact (9-10-3, 30 points) kept up the pressure down the stretch, though Altidore's free-kick goal sealed the result five minutes into stoppage time. It was Altidore's sixth goal in only 10 games, as the star forward's playing time has been limited due to injuries and international absences.
Altidore and Michael Bradley were both back in Toronto's lineup after missing the previous four games to the CONCACAF Gold Cup. The Impact also had Micheal Azira and Daniel Lovitz back from international duty, while Clement Bayiha came off the bench after an 11-game absence with a quad injury.
Omar Gonzalez started at center back in his Toronto FC debut. The veteran defender was playing in his first MLS match since 2015.

According to reports, a Nigerian man identified as Emeka was allegedly murdered in South Africa, hours after the Super Eagles of Nigeria defeated the Bafana Bafana of South Africa.
According to statements, the conflict happened this morning in Motherwell, and no reason has been given for the murder.
However, further investigations conducted appears not to have led anywhere. A phone call placed across to the South African police force in Motherwell appears to prove otherwise.
According to the South African Police Authorities, no such case occurred between yesterday night and early this morning as they also stressed that the matter doesn't exist.
Just yesterday, the Nigerian Senate had summoned the Nigerian ambassador to South Africa to explain the circumstances that led to the alleged murder of the Deputy Director-General of Chartered Insurance Institute of Nigeria, Elizabeth Ndubusi-Chukwu in the country recently.
The upper chamber also asked the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to issue travel alerts to Nigerians travelling to South Africa.
Again, the Senate fumed on Wednesday, warning the South African government to halt the frequent killings of Nigerians by its citizens to avoid grave consequences.
The President of the Senate, Ahmad Lawan, who stated this at plenary, warned that the South African government must extend due respect to Nigeria and should not take the good gesture towards it for granted.
Debating the death of the CIIN deputy director, the Senate asked the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to issue travel alerts to Nigerians going to South Africa.
So far, several reports abound of brutality against Nigerians in South Africa.
The killing of Ndubusi-Chukwu in June this year brought the number of Nigerians murdered in South Africa within three and a half years to a total of 127.Omokoshaban.com Mobile APP: click this link to download CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD OMOKOSHABAN MOBILE APP
