Australia is considered one of the most multicultural countries in the world.

However, as globalisation becomes the norm, and we begin to welcome people from countries with vastly different backgrounds, experiences, ideologies, values and belief systems, how can we harness the power of education to develop intercultural competence and enhance social inclusion?

Education is a powerful medium that can bring positive change. A reconsideration of what we teach, and how, is required in order to account for the social, cultural and economic differences and similarities embodied within the changing society and contemporary student cohort.

Recent changes to public university fee structures announced by the federal government will see a 113% increase in the cost of humanities degrees from 2021.

This will disincentivise students from seeking careers in the creative arts and music – a huge blow to not only the arts sector, but to the wider education community.

Arts and music must remain a critical component of curriculum and school programs. Governments can no longer discount the critical role a music and arts-based education has on not only developing students’ critical thinking capacity, but in promoting social inclusion and intercultural competence in the classroom.

Music and the arts are essential to the very fabric of humanity, contributing not only to society as an expression of personal and collective identity and social relatedness, but are among the most powerful ways to connect with each other.

Creativity and critical thinking, innovation, communication, collaborative learning, intercultural competence and socially-inclusive behaviours are non-negotiable 21st-century skills and attributes embedded within the disciplines of music and arts.

Most importantly, music and the arts provide ways for non-English-speaking and refugee students to succeed in the Australian school system, and unite with fellow classmates.

My recent study, published in the International Journal for Music Education, explored the perceptions, experiences and practices of teachers directly or indirectly involved with the music education program in three Australian schools that have a high percentage of young people with a refugee background.

Key findings from this research indicate that intercultural competence and socially-inclusive behaviours are embedded in the music learning activities that are student-centred, active, practical, experiential and authentic.

The three Australian schools involved in this 30-week case study have more than 1500 students combined from a number of countries, including Iran, Sudan, Afghanistan, Thailand and Burma.

All schools delivered the standard Australian curriculum, as well as intensive English-language courses and cultural-immersion opportunities for refugee students.

The music teachers interviewed indicated the experiences and opportunities provided by the practices involved in music-making contributed to their overall academic achievement, and the development of positive personal and social outcomes for all students.

One music teacher said: “Beyond the dots on the page, there is an expressive quality to music that transcends cultural boundaries and academic limitations … engagement with lyrics builds vocabulary, comprehension and pronunciation.”

Another remarked that some students who found literacy or numeracy difficult, and somewhat confronting, have a chance to excel in music. They said music gave students the chance to develop important personal and social skills, such as self-esteem, confidence, communication and teamwork.

Creative and critical thinking are embedded within music-making, where experimentation, risk-taking and productive failure are normalised and accepted as an important part of the learning process.

Students were able to engage with what might otherwise be perceived as risky endeavours in a way that encouraged innovation and different ideas, motivated students to their best, share personal experiences, set personal learning goals, while building confident, resilient and respective behaviours and attitudes.

A third said: “I have a responsibility to create a learning environment that acknowledges and respects individual differences. So the music program provides a safe and supportive learning community where all students are given opportunities to develop personally, socially and academically.

Music and the arts can play a critical role in the future of inclusive, practical, and life-changing education.

“Socially-inclusive practices are central to the program, as well as providing creative opportunities that encourage risk-taking in an authentic way … Interdisciplinary learning such as literacy and numeracy are addressed throughout the program as students develop a range of musical skills and knowledge.”

A non-arts teacher interviewed as part of this research had a diverse range of experience.

One of the most impactful statements came from an English teacher with more than 15 years’ experience, who remarked: “The development that many students have made, and how this [music learning] transfers to other subjects like mine [English] can certainly be attributed to the literacy work addressed in music classes. It is astonishing … I am working with the music teacher to integrate some of these strategies.”

There was acknowledgement from each of the music teachers about the value of music learning as having both intrinsic and extrinsic value.

Increasing pressure to justify the value of music in schools has led to the distinction of extrinsic benefits of music as related to academic and/or cognitive development and psychosocial wellbeing, as opposed to intrinsic benefits that relate to direct musical and aesthetic values.

It was encouraging to observe that in each of these schools, the music programs are designed on the premise that musical participation affords opportunities to enrich human experience in holistic and integrated ways, valuing a balance of intrinsic and extrinsic benefits.

A reconsideration of what, and how, we teach is required in order to account for the social, cultural and economic differences and similarities embodied in the changing society and contemporary student cohort.

Music and the arts can play a critical role in the future of inclusive, practical, and life-changing education.

The Australian government can’t afford to neglect music and arts as an important tool to develop social capacity, and foster intercultural learning opportunities for all students in the classroom.

Coronavirus: Akufo-Addo is ‘preoccupied’ with 2020 election

Click to read all about coronavirus →

The Attorney General’s Department, is making a strong case for the National Identification Authority (NIA) to be allowed to carry on with the Ghana Card registration in the Eastern region, despite a directive by President Akufo-Addo, limiting public gatherings over the spread of the deadly Coronavirus cases which has risen to 52 and killed two persons.

Godfred Yeboah Dame in filing a defence to respond to a suit filed against the NIA by two individuals to stop the registration exercise said, although the president gave directives for the suspension of public gatherings, the NIA’s work falls under the category of businesses that were permitted to continue to operate, but with adequate precautionary measures.

“…much as the President directed that all public gatherings should be suspended, in the same speech Sunday, 15th March, 2020, the President expressly preserved the continued operation of businesses and other workplaces subject to the observance of prescribed social distancing between patrons and staff.”

“…the effect of the President’s directive is that, manufacturing, industrial and service workplaces, including the civil service and service in other organs of government, local market, supermarket, shopping mall, restaurant, security services and other essential services continue to function, but subject to the strict practice of prescribed social distancing,” he noted in said in the defence.

He further argued that their work is part of public services and as such the ban declared by the president last Sunday, does not include the Ghana card registration and the plaintiffs on that basis, have no case against the authority.

“That the National Identification Authority (NIA) is a statutory authority, part of the public services of Government and performing services which were not proscribed or outlawed by the letter and spirit of the directives of the President dated Sunday, 15th March, 2020.”

Godfred Dame, said the aspect of the President’s directives that concerns it, is in the area of ensuring social distancing and personal hygiene protocols which it has been adhering to.

The Attorney-General, had insisted, that despite a coronavirus outbreak, the registration exercise for the Ghana card, must go on because the identity card will be crucial to vote in December.

This position was contained in its response to a lawsuit demanding the NIA suspend its controversial registration exercise in the Eastern region.

Deputy Attorney’s statement of the government’s defence, said the NIA had instituted strict hygienic measures meant to ensure that the exercise does not become an infection ground for the deadly covid-19.

He accused the plaintiffs -Emmanuel Akumatey and Kevor Mark-Oliver- who are at the Human Rights Court of a “deliberate misconstruction” of the president’s directive, banning public gatherings in the wake of the infections.

The deputy A-G said the president’s directives, issued March 15, 2020, excluded certain classes of businesses and other workplaces.

He prayed the court to dismiss the injunction application, describing it as “grossly unmeritorious and unwarranted.”

The Attorney-General, also asked the court for an early hearing because the NIA exercise is an urgent national objective.

The court is expected to hear the case in two weeks. But Godfred Dame, wants a quick showdown Thursday.

Emmanuel Akumatey and Kevor Mark-Oliver’s case against the NIA, is the second such case against the registration exercise in in the period of COVID-19. It was filed by one lawyer Nii Kpakpo.

In the first case, an Accra High Court presided over by Justice Daniel Mensah, on Monday placed an interim injunction on the NIA’s mass registration exercise in the Eastern region.

Lawyers for the applicants, Justice Srem-Sai Esq., Godwin Dzah Esq and Francis Kwarteng Arthur Esq, prayed the court that the NIA, must be restrained as their continued defiance of the President’s orders, will deprive the applicants of their derivative rights if they (the applicants) decide to heed the president’s call and stay away from the crowd, which is normally associated with this registration exercise, whilst at the same time the respondents defy the same directives.

The court said, it had taken judicial notice of the president’s directive banning all social gatherings and the health risk the registration poses.

The decision of the court was as a result of an interim injunction application brought against the NIA by 29 individuals who reside in the Eastern region.

The applicants led by Prince Tabi (1st Applicant) argued that the registration by NIA, posed some serious health risks for registrants of which the court had to intervene because the Authority is acting ‘unreasonably and unfairly’.

They also made an order for cost and demanded any other remedies that the honourable Court may deem fit under the circumstances.

In their writ, they declared that:

“An order of injunction, restraining the Respondent, its agents, workmen and women, assigns howsoever named or described from continuing to carry out its mass registration exercise in the Eastern Region until such a time that (i) a vaccine is found for the deadly COVID-19 disease; (ii) the Ghana Health Service would declare that the COVID-19 disease is no longer an epidemic in Ghana; or (iii) the World Health Organization would declare that the COVID-19 disease is no longer an epidemic in Ghana, whichever happens last.”

On its part, however, the NIA told the court that it had to continue the registration exercise in other not to disenfranchise people who reside in the Eastern Region due to the Legislative Instrument presented to Parliament by the Electoral Commission which seeks to make the Ghana card and passport, the two major means of getting onto the new voters’ register.

But following the interlocutory injunction application filed at the High Court restraining the NIA from continuing with the registration exercise, the Authority subsequently suspendedthe Ghana Card registration exercise in the Eastern Region.

The exercise was suspended “pending the final determination of the application,” the NIA noted in a statement.

Before the suspension, the NIA insisted that its decision to carry on with the Ghana Card registration exercise in the Eastern Region was not in violation of the directives concerning public gatherings.

This was despite reports indicating that citizens looking to register for the card were massing at some registration centres in contravention of expert advice for curbing the spread of the novel coronavirus pandemic.

The Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ), for example, said the continuation of the registration was a breach of international and regional human rights instruments.

CHRAJ in a statement also said the NIA’s actions were a disregard of the existing World Health Organization (WHO) precautionary measures aimed at containing and combating the novel coronavirus.

The Ghana Medical Association (GMA) also complained that the continuation of the exercise defeated the precautionary measures declared by the state to combat the pandemic.

Evan peals himself off the floor after being stepped on.  He runs away to avoid being stepped on again but it is in vain.  Jackson black sock drops on him, squishing him flat again.  But this time Evan gets stuck to the bottom of Jackson sock.  Jackson put on his shoes, with his little friend stuck to the bottom of his foot.  And he heads outside for a run.

Once back in the house, Jackson takes his shoes off.  Evan remains stuck for a couple seconds until he drops to the floor.  Jackson takes his socks off and heads for the kitchen.  Desperate to get his friends attention Evan follows, but soon finds himself dodging being stepped on yet again.  On the floor he looks up trying desperately to get Jacksons attention only to see cereal start to rain down on him.  None hit him but he is soon swept up with the cereal into Jacksons hand and then dumped into the bowl his friend is about to eat.

Jackson takes bite after bite completely unaware of the danger his friend is in.  Evan misses the first couple spoonfuls but isn't so lucky on the third.

He is lifted into the air and into his friends mouth.  He thinks this is it, but by some miracle manages to avoid being chewed up.  But he does become stuck in Jacksons teeth.

How will Evan get his friends attention and get out of his best friends mouth, stay tuned for Episode 3.

Provide nutrition support for a HIV positive child by Grace Peter Charitable Trust

This program helps people in extreme need

Provide nutrition support for a HIV positive child

Thank you!

This program is fully funded because of donors like you.

A nutrition kit that helps Kalidass get enough strength to fight

Kalidass is the only son of his parents. Most children inherit their parents' looks, but Kalidass was unfortunate to inherit their illness.

Both his parents were HIV positive. Due to this, Kalidass was born HIV positive.

His father passed away fighting the dreaded disease. His mother is now the sole earning member of the family.

As she suffers from a terminal illness, she cannot go to work regularly. She can't find a stable job due to the stigma of the disease. They have a monthly income of Rs.1800/- which is not even enough for two full meals a day.

Due to this, they both had a dangerously low CD4 count. A person is diagnosed with HIV if their CD count is less than 200 as against a healthy range of 500-1500 in healthy people.

Grace Peter Charitable Trust's outreach workers identified Kalidass during one of his hospital visits. He was very sick and had stopped going to school.

Grace Peter Charitable Trust enrolled him in their nutrition. He receives a monthly nutrition kit that is planned to give him the nutrition that he needs to withstand strong HIV treatment. This nutritional support has helped Kalidass a lot. His health condition has improved a lot with regular nutritious food.

Kalidass is now healthy enough to carry on his regular activities like a child. He goes to school and is in Class 7. His mother is pleased that she can feed him a good meal every day. He may have a chance at life now.

You can also help needy children with HIV with nutrition to withstand the intense treatment. You can donate so that organizations like Grace Peter Charitable Trust can bring help to patients who deserve it. You can give with confidence because every program listed is GIVEASSURED.

6 Royal Docks developments that will boost buy-to-let returns

If you really can measure a booming property market by the number of cranes in the sky, then London’s Royal Docks will leave you breathless. Take the DLR from Canning Town just 5 minutes into the heart of Royal Docks and you’ll see a horizon full of developments at different stages of construction.

When Royal Docks was unveiled as both an Enterprise Zone and an Opportunity Area, developers rushed to bid for brownfield sites. The result is phenomenal: 15,000 new homes and 40,000 jobs are being created in an area 4km long; a distance equivalent of a walk from Oxford Circus to Bank.

Here’s a summary of the major Royal Docks developments currently under construction and the ideas still on the drawing board.

1. £3.5bn regeneration of Silvertown Quays

Silvertown Quays is a 27.4-hectare site within Royal Docks. With Royal Victoria Dock to the North and Pontoon Dock at its heart, the development site has more than its fair share of prime waterfront views.

It contains several historical buildings from London’s rich dockside past that add to the charm and character of the area. These include Millennium Mills, the Rank Hovis Building and the Grade II listed Silo D, which will be restored and incorporated into the wider development.

A series of ‘Brand Pavilions’ will give the area a unique feel and will act as an innovation hub. A Floating Village will see 15 acres of water converted into a collection of buoyant homes, cafés, shops and restaurants bobbing below the Emirates Air Line.

The development will create up to 20,680 jobs in office, retail and leisure sectors and around 3,000 homes.

2. £3.7bn regeneration of Canning Town and Custom House

10,000 new homes are under construction in Canning Town as part of a massive regeneration project that will also revamp two town centers by 2024. The project will provide up to 5,000 new jobs.

Hallsville Quarter is the £600m town centre project for Canning Town. It will provide 1,100 new homes, 15 new shops, a hotel, cinema and gym over the course of 5 phases. Work began in 2012 and so far 179 residential units, a large Morrisons supermarket and underground parking are already complete.

The Rathbone Market development that includes the iconic Vermillion Tower will provide 650 new homes, shops, a market square and a library.

3. £1.7bn Asian Business Port

ABP London in Royal Albert Dock is a development that will create 20,000 jobs, 1,000 homes and add £6 billion to London’s economy.

The 35-acre site will eventually be home to over 3.2 million sq ft of work, retail and leisure space, including 2.5 million sq ft of prime office space, creating a vibrant, district on London’s waterways.

ABP is the largest commercial development of its kind in the UK and will attract financial, high-tech and knowledge-based Asian industries looking to establish their business in the UK and European markets, as well as businesses looking to trade with them. When complete, the site will become London’s third business district and should generate £23m a year in business rates.

4. 3,400 homes in Royal Wharf

Royal Wharf is a 363,000 Sqm waterfront development from two leading developers, Oxley Holdings Limited and Ballymore UK. It consists of 3,400 apartments and townhouses, as well as approximately 20,000 sqm of office and retail space. The project will incorporate a new town square, high street retail, restaurants, bars & leisure space, there are also plans for a new school and medical centre.

The development also features a riverside park, linking the proposed Royal Wharf Pier, Royal Wharf Amphitheatre & Riverside Walk. When finished, it will be home to around 10,000 people.

5. Crossrail at Custom House

Custom House will open as a Crossrail station in 2018.  A journey to Canary Wharf will take just 3 minutes, and Tottenham Court Road will take only 15. Even Heathrow airport will under 45 minutes away.

Property research giants JLL expect prices near Custom House to grow 40.5% from 2014-2020 due to Crossrail alone. They also forecast that rental values will rise by 28% in the same period.

6. Growth at London City Airport

Royal Docks has unrivalled links to London City Airport. The airport’s fast turnaround times make it the number one choice for business travellers and frequent flyers. It has just added transatlantic flights to New York to its roster and with the growth of Royal Docks you can expect more routes to be added in the coming years.

London City Airport is applying for planning permission to expand its operations, including infrastructure improvements and greater passenger facilities to meet rising demand.

Future projects in Royal Docks

Proposals for a new cycle and pedestrian bridge across Royal Victoria Dock will improve upon the current footbridge from Silvertown Quays to Custom House DLR. Crucially, it will also improve access to the future Crossrail station. If the project goes ahead, Custom House will be just 500 metres away.

A consultation is underway for a Silvertown Tunnel that will link Royal Victoria Dock with the Greenwich Peninsula in taking roughly the same route as the Emirates Air Line. The tunnel is a ‘Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project’ and if all goes to plan, would start construction in 2018 with an opening scheduled for 2022/2023.

Since May 2015, the Mayor of London has actively been seeking a development partner to redevelop Albert Island in Royal Docks. The Mayor wants to create new commercial space to attract employers and improve connections at Gallions Reach and King George V DLR stations.

There’s also a proposal to transform Royal Albert Basin into a state-of-the-art commercial boatyard.

Royal Docks Investment Summary

Right now, Royal Docks isn’t much to look at. The historic buildings give shades of past glory, and the cranes hint at the potential of the site, but the ripples have started. The first phases of some residential developments are nearing completion and by the time Crossrail opens the entire area will be well on its way to a total transformation.

With 40,000 jobs created there will be massive demand from the new local working population, but also from people viewing Royal Docks as a lifestyle choice.

13 million visitors each year are expected to explore Silvertown Quays alone. Add this to the growing social infrastructure across all the developments and the future pull to the area is going to be huge.

As owning a property within London continues to be out of the reach of most, rental demand is only going one way, especially in the Royal Docks area where there are quick transport links to central London. That’s why buying an off-plan property in today’s market promises to be a particularly lucrative investment.

Student Housing

Global Learning Semesters students will be housed in same-sex apartments in downtown Florence. The apartments are fully furnished and functional. The standard layout of the apartments consists of multiple bedrooms, multiple bathrooms (variable), kitchen, and living/dining room space. The bedrooms range from singles for one occupant, to triple bedrooms. Shared bedrooms room 2 to maximum 4 occupants. In most shared apartments students number 4-6. Kitchens are fully functional, with sufficient utensils, plates and glasses per number of occupants, as well as refrigerators, ovens, stoves and basic cookware.
Though apartments are of the same standard and have similar facilities, they are not alike. They are not all located in the same building, but are all within walking distance to our campuses or the nearest bus route.

Some important points about housing:
Unlike some other study programs, we guarantee housing. Your housing will be available for move-in at the beginning of the program.
Our units are modern, furnished, and include kitchens, lounges and basic amenities (e.g. refrigerator, oven, etc). As is typical of apartment living, not all units are identical as it relates to amenities, furniture and size.
Our base fees are for double-occupancy living (e.g. two students per bedroom). Units might have 1, 2 or more bedrooms.
Students that would like a bedroom of their own can request a single room by paying the single supplement with their program fees. We cannot guarantee availability of single rooms and will refund single supplements if we cannot accommodate a single room request. It is highly unlikely that a student will be able to successfully request a single room after he or she has arrived in Florence.
Room assignment occurs after the participant list for a semester is finalized. We attempt to accommodate reasonable roommate or housing preferences, but make no guarantees that we will be able to do so.
Our units are not supervised residence halls. Students are expected to be capable of mature, independent apartment-style living with their roommates.
All else being equal, we prioritize housing requests based on the date we receive a student's full payment (earlier is better). This is not an absolute factor, but is used as a "tie-breaker" when needed.

Rich Beem admits he didn't pay his caddie and makes comment on Kuchar

Rich Beem admits he didn't pay his son when he caddied for him and makes a hilarious comment about the Kuchar incident.

Jack Seddon's picture
Mon, 18 Nov 2019

Matt Kuchar made the headlines last year at the Mayakoba Golf Classic, when he won the tournament and stiffed his stand-in local caddie by not paying the normal ten percent fee. With Kuchar returning to the event last week to defend his title and with El Tucan on the bag of someone else in the field, the story was of course being brought up once again.

Kuchar was absolutely rinsed for what happened last year and he recently admitted he regrets everything that happened following his victory, but now someone else has come clean about underpaying a caddie, in Sky Sports analyst and 2002 PGA Championship winner Rich Beem.

Beem was speaking to Brian Katrek and John Maginnes on SiriusXM PGA Tour Radio, where he revealed that he had also underpaid a caddie when he made a rare appearance on the PGA Tour at the Houston Open last month.

Now before you start tweeting your outrage, Beem's caddie at the Houston Open was his 16-year-old son, Michael. Beem finished in T55 place and his son Michael was told he'd receive 5% of his winnings, which would have worked out to be $850.

The hosts of the radio show asked Beem if he had paid his son for his caddying duties yet.

"Well, not yet, but Christmas is around the corner, so you never know," Beem said. "But he still has to earn his keep and all that."

Katrek and Maginnes then joked about the timing of the news and compared Beem's situation to that of Kuchar, to which Beem reacted to brilliantly.
"Wow! Listen, if you're going to go there, let's at least get the story straight," Beem says. "One of us isn't a true major champion. And the fact that, listen, he only stiffed his caddie a little bit. I stiffed my caddie all of it."
Listen to the hilarious exchange below.

Now it's 'Nike' Faldo

Faldo joins Tiger stable

Bob Warters's picture
Fri, 10 Jan 2003

Faldo - contract with Nike.

Nick Faldo, the 45 year-old veteran recognised as Britain's greatest ever golfer, will be announced later today as Nike’s latest signing.

The six times major champion has signed a contract to play Nike clubs and ball and have the billion dollar company support his Faldo Junior Series, which produced the likes of Nick Dougherty.

"We’re absolutely delighted," an insider told me. "He fits the bill perfectly. While Tiger Woods may be the idol of the young golfers, Nick Faldo is still a hero with slightly older players. They can relate to him."

Faldo will be revealed to the media at a special news conference in London later today, when Nike UK’s latest products, including a new ball will be revealed.

"Players on Tour, who have tested the ball are raving about it," said my source.

Faldo turned professional in 1976 after a sparkling amateur career in which he won the British Youth and English Amateur championships. After winning several pro events he decided to re-vamp his golfswing under the guidance of David Leadbetter and returned to claim three Open Championships (1987, ’90 and 92) and three US Masters (1989, ’90 and ’96).

He made a record 11 Ryder Cup appearances and won the 1997 Nissan Open on the US Tour but despite winning the World Cup a year later, his career temporarily nose-dived until 2001 when, re-united with his caddie Fanny Sunesson and after marrying for the third time, he finished third in the Volvo PGA.

With a 14th place finish in the 2002 Masters and 5th in the US Open, Faldo proved he was back on top.

Now, after a flirtation with television commentary at The Belfry last September, he plans to play his way back into the European Ryder Cup team in 2004 and claim at least another European Tour title.

Added my Nike source: "He really loves the clubs and we all think he could have another major championship in him."

He has previously been associated with a range of companies, including Pringle with whom he had a long-term clothing contract and Adams Golf, with whom there was an acrimonious split after he had designed a range wedges.

Radiator Replacement in St. Louis, MO

What is Radiator Replacement?

The radiator is a major component of the engine cooling system. While the water pump pushes coolant through the engine and radiator, via hoses, the radiator’s function is to allow heat to escape into the atmosphere.

To facilitate this heat transfer, from the coolant to the air, the radiator core, the working part, is made of thin metal, usually aluminum or copper, though some are still made of steel. The tanks on the ends may also be made of metal, but many new ones are made of plastic. If there is a problem with the radiator, radiator replacement may be necessary.

Why is Radiator Replacement Important?

There are a few reasons that a radiator might fail, requiring radiator replacement. Because the radiator is typically right out front, just behind the grille, road debris could clog the radiator core or damage the fins, reducing radiator effectiveness. Cleaning out the radiator with a pressure washer and adjusting the fins with a radiator comb can help, but this kind of damage isn’t usually noticed until it’s too late, such as when accumulated dust, dirt, and grime have encouraged corrosion and the radiator has started leaking.

Road debris or a minor accident may cause physical damage to the radiator, and it doesn’t take much to break the thin metal tubes that make up the radiator core or the plastic tanks. In case of a leak, radiator replacement might be needed to restore engine cooling system function and protect the engine from damage due to overheating.

In case of a leak on hybrid cars and some electric vehicles, a coolant leak may lead to overheating of expensive components, such as the battery pack or electric motor-generators. Prompt radiator replacement could save a lot of money in auxiliary repairs.

What can Dobbs Tire & Auto Centers Do for You?

Unless you see a coolant leak or are experiencing overheating problems, you might never know you have a problem requiring radiator replacement. Your regularly scheduled maintenance visits at Dobbs Tire & Auto Centers is the perfect time for an experienced technician to give your vehicle an inspection, part of which includes checking the radiator and cooling system for problems. If leaks or corrosion threaten the longevity of your engine or major electric vehicle components, cooling system function can be restored with prompt radiator replacement.

Edward Dobson (1816-1908)

1842 Edward Dobson became a member of the Institution of Civil Engineers.[1]

1881 of Christchurch, New Zealand

1908 Obituary [2]

EDWARD DOBSON died at his residence near Christchurch, New Zealand, on the 19th April, 1908, at the advanced age of 91. He was one of the earliest settlers in the province of Canterbury, with which his name and services are indissolubly associated. His early experience may be briefly summarized.

Born in London in 1816 he was articled to Mr. Herring, a well-known London architect, and subsequently spent a sketching tour on the Continent to such profit that his drawings were exhibited in the architects’ section of the Royal Academy.

After practising for some years on his own account as an architect and surveyor, at the same time studying engineering at University College, London, he was occupied between 1844 and 1850 on railway construction work on the staff of Mr. John Urpeth Rastrick, a well-known railway engineer of that day.

In 1850 he sailed for New Zealand, where, with a few years’ interval, the remainder of his long life was spent. It is unnecessary here to give in detail the history of his subsequent career, inasmuch as a vigorous and graphic account of his colonial experiences from Mr. Dobson’s own pen will be found in an earlier volume of the Proceedings, and should be read in conjunction with this brief memoir.

From 1854 to 1868 he held the office of Provincial Engineer of Canterbury, and during this period he was responsible for all public works carried out in the colony. Some of these undertakings were described in a Paper on the public works of Canterbury, for which the Author received a Telford Medal.

The next seven years were spent in Victoria, Australia, where Mr. Dobson held charge for a time of the Melbourne and Hobson’s Bay Railway. Subsequently he was appointed acting Engineer-in-Chief of the Victoria Water-Supply Department, in which capacity he carried out the Geelong water supply works described in a Paper which he communicated to The Institution in 1878, and for which he was awarded a Telford premium.

Returning to New Zealand in 1876, Mr. Dobson settled down at Christchurch as a consulting engineer and carried on practice there until a few years before his death, from 1898 in association with his son, Mr. A. Dudley Dobson, the present city engineer of Christchurch. For nearly 6 years from 1887 he held the appointment of lecturer in civil engineering at Canterbury College.

He took great interest in the Volunteer movement, and held a commission; subsequently he joined the Engineers’ Corps. Besides the communications presented to The Institution, he was the author of several works on engineering subjects, of which the best known is probably his work entitled "Pioneer Engineering,” embodying the results of his own versatile experience. He held several offices in connection with local institutions in New Zealand, and was well-known and generally respected for his integrity of character and professional ability throughout the colony.

Mr. Dobson was elected an Associate of The Institution on the 1st March, 1842, was subsequently placed in the class of Associate Members, and was transferred to the class of Members on the 29th March, 1881. He was thus attached to The Institution upwards of 60 years and was one of its oldest members.

MP urges businesses to respond to consultation

By David Porter

Contribute to support quality local journalism

Banff and Buchan MP David Duguid has urged local businesses to respond to a government consultation on plans to protect the flow of goods within the UK after Brexit.

David Duguid is urging companies to respond to the consultation.
David Duguid is urging companies to respond to the consultation.

The UK Government has set out options for the ‘UK Internal Market’ – which will take effect from the end of the EU Transition Period in December this year.

This is designed to ensure there remains no barriers to trade within the UK after the end of the transition period.

The plans include the principle of mutual recognition – making sure that rules on production and sale of goods and services in one part of the UK are recognised in the other parts.

There is also a principle of non-discrimination – to avoid rules being introduced by one part of the UK that discriminate specifically against goods and services from another.

The government wants to hear from businesses and the consultation will run until August 12.

Mr Duguid said: “I would urge any company in the constituency that does business in England, Wales and Northern Ireland to take the time to respond to this consultation.

“As we come to the end of the EU Transition Period in December, the UK Government is putting in place measures to ensure that seamless trade within these islands continues unhindered .

“That requires legislation to be put in place to ensure that rules around the production of goods are the same in Peterhead as they are in Plymouth, Prestatyn or Portadown.

"And contrary to 'power grab' claims from the SNP, this bill will actually result in more powers coming to the devolved administrations.

“Two thirds of Scotland’s total trade is with the rest of the UK, so it is vital that there are no barriers and no differences that would hinder any one part of the country compared to another.”

DETROIT LAKES, Minn. — A mobile game made in Detroit Lakes, starring a cute little dolphin and other cartoon sea creatures, is making waves in the niche world of retro pixel art gaming.

“Sonar Smash,” created by Detroit Lakes couple Derek Sonnenberg and Bonnie Thompson, was released April 8 and then featured a few weeks later in the Apple App Store as one of the “New Games We Love." It’s now been downloaded more than 22,000 times.

With thousands of new mobile gaming apps released every day, that kind of attention is cause for celebration.

“When ‘Sonar Smash’ was released, it was a five-star (rating) on Apple and had lots of great comments,” Sonnenberg said. “It’s really inspiring, all the good things we’ve heard. “

The game is a “super-cute, fast-paced shoot ‘em up” that requires players to smash their way through waves of ocean life “using unique and powerful sonar abilities,” according to a news release. It’s designed to be reminiscent of old-school arcade games, with intentionally pixelated characters and scenes.

“Sonar Smash” is the second pixel art game to be released by Sonnenberg and Thompson, who in 2018 founded Pixel Pajama Studios, a “tiny indie game studio,” as they describe it on their website. Their first game, “Astral Defense,” was released in 2019.

A classically trained artist born and raised in California, Thompson is the lead artist and animator for the games, while Sonnenberg, who has lived in Detroit Lakes since he was about 10, is the programmer and marketer. He’s self-taught, and he said he’s proud of how much he’s learned and accomplished over the past two years.

In addition to the two games already released, the couple has developed prototypes for several more, one of which Sonnenberg said they hope to release to the public by the end of the year. He’s also built the Pixel Pajama Studios website and created media kits and other promotional materials for the business.

For now, Pixel Pajama Studios is “basically a hobby,” Sonnenberg said, but, “Eventually, we’d like to turn this into our main business, our actual income earner, to focus on something we really enjoy, which is just being creative in general.”

When his and Thompson’s son was born, about two-and-a-half years ago, he decided to become a stay-at-home parent, and that was also when the initial seeds for Pixel Pajama Studios were planted.

Meanwhile, Thompson continued to work full-time as a fountain programmer for water shows. She creates elaborate fountain “dances,” in which the water moves to the beat of accompanying music (like the famous Fountains of Bellagio in Las Vegas). It’s a job she was doing from her California home when she met Sonnenberg four years ago, and she continued to do it from her new home in Detroit Lakes after she moved here to be with him. She also continued to create her own original artwork on the side, including pixel art.

Inspired by Thompson’s work, Sonnenberg entered the pixel art world himself, and what started as a hobby for the couple quickly evolved as they began to turn their art into full-fledged games.

“I got into pixel art because it was the easiest art style for me to learn,” Sonnenberg said. “I just decided I wanted to make my own images, about two years ago, and then I just kept going with it, and she did, too. And then we, a couple of months later, decided to try to make a game out of it because it was looking so good.”

They work well together, Sonnenberg said, brainstorming theme ideas for games, coming up with characters, doing the market research and more. Thompson sketches things out, and then they hone their plans through a little trial and error.

“Everything’s a learning process,” he said, adding, “It’s been great. I really like what we’re doing right now.”

Moving forward, the couple’s plan is to push out more similar content as much and as fast as possible. Sonnenberg said that’s the best path to making a living in the indie gaming business.

“It’s really a big exponential slow climb, so we’re going to put out as many games as we can, as much content as we can,” he said.
